python3 scripts/milkee.py stop_timer
# Show today's times
python3 scripts/milkee.py list_times_today
Projects

python3 scripts/milkee.py create_project "My Project" --customer-id 123 --budget 5000
python3 scripts/milkee.py update_project 456 --name "Updated" --budget 6000
Customers
python3 scripts/milkee.py list_customers
# Create with all fields
python3 scripts/milkee.py create_customer "Example AG" \
--street "Musterstrasse 1" \

π Configuration
File: ~/.clawdbot/clawdbot.json
"milkee": {
"env": {
"MILKEE_API_TOKEN": "USER_ID|API_KEY",
"MILKEE_COMPANY_ID": "YOUR_COMPANY_ID"
}
}
Credentials:
- Get from: MILKEE Settings β API
- Format: USER_ID|API_KEY
π― Special Features
Fuzzy Project Matching
When you say "Website", the skill:
- Fetches all projects from MILKEE
- Fuzzy-matches (Levenshtein distance)
- Auto-selects closest match
- Starts timer on that project
Example:
Input: "website"
Matches: "Website Redesign Project" (96%+ match)
β Timer starts on project
Timer Persistence
- Saves timer state to
~/.milkee_timer - Survives between terminal sessions
- Auto-calculates elapsed time on stop
Daily Time Summary
list_times_today shows:
- All time entries for today
- Duration per entry
- Total hours/minutes worked
π Test Results
β List projects - Works perfectly β Fuzzy matching - Works (correctly matches project names) β API authentication - All endpoints working β Time calculation - Accurate β Timer persistence - Works across sessions
π§ Implementation Details
- Language: Python 3.8+
- HTTP Client: urllib (stdlib)
- Fuzzy Matching: SequenceMatcher (stdlib)
- Timer File: ~/.milkee_timer (JSON)
- Dependencies: None (stdlib only!)
π Notes
- Company ID β User ID (get both from MILKEE settings)
- API Token format: USER_ID|API_KEY
- Time entries are billable by default
- Supports both byHour and fixedBudget projects
- No external dependencies (uses Python stdlib)
π― Next Steps
- Configure with your MILKEE credentials
- Test:
python3 scripts/milkee.py list_projects - Start tracking time:
start_timer "ProjectName" - View daily summary:
list_times_today
