Todoist is the task layer. The agent is the gardener.
Getting Things Done (David Allen): Your brain is for having ideas, not holding them. Capture everything immediately. Process to next physical action. If it takes < 2 min, do it now. Weekly review is sacred.
Shape Up (Ryan Singer, Basecamp): Work expands to fill the time available. Set appetite (how much time is this worth?), not estimates. Projects are bets with fixed timelines, not open-ended backlogs. If it's not worth betting on, kill it.
