GitHub + Microsoft To Do: Dev Tasks Unified

Turn GitHub issues, pull request reviews, and failed builds into Microsoft To Do tasks that follow you across every device.

Assigned Issues as Tasks

Every GitHub issue assigned to you becomes a personal To Do item with title, link, and priority.

PR Reviews Never Buried

Pull requests awaiting your review appear in To Do with due dates so nothing gets missed in notifications.

Build Failures Flagged Fast

Failed CI runs on your branch create high-priority tasks so you act before the team is blocked.

What You Can Automate

Assigned Issue Capture

GitHub issues assigned to you are converted into Microsoft To Do tasks with the issue link and label-based priority.

Code Review Reminders

Pull requests requesting your review become dated To Do items in a dedicated Code Reviews list automatically.

Failed Build Follow-Ups

Any failed GitHub Actions run on your branch generates a high-priority To Do task before the team notices.

Completion Bidirectional Sync

Closing a GitHub issue marks the linked Microsoft To Do task complete so your personal list stays accurate.

Milestone Issue Grouping

Issues added to a GitHub milestone are grouped into a matching To Do list for focused sprint planning.

Mention and Assignment Alerts

When you are mentioned in a GitHub issue comment, a To Do reminder is created with the comment context.

Daily Dev Work Summary

Neotask compiles all open GitHub assignments into a single daily To Do list so you start each morning with clarity.

How It Works

Step 1

Tell Neotask which GitHub events to watch - issue assignments, review requests, or failed builds - and which Microsoft To Do list should receive each type.

Step 2

Neotask monitors your GitHub activity using your account credentials and translates each event into a structured To Do task with priority and source link.

Step 3

Tasks appear in Microsoft To Do within minutes of the GitHub event and sync status back so completed items clear from both tools automatically.

Connect GitHub and Microsoft To Do with Neotask

GitHub tracks every issue, pull request, and CI run on your projects. Microsoft To Do holds your personal tasks, reminders, and daily work. For developers these two tools rarely talk to each other, which means assigned issues stay buried in GitHub notifications and code reviews pile up unnoticed.

Neotask bridges the GitHub Microsoft To Do integration so your development work appears on your personal task list automatically. When a new issue is assigned to you, a task is created in To Do within minutes. When a build fails on your branch, a high-priority task appears before anyone else notices. When you close the issue on GitHub, the matching task is marked complete.

Why Developers Need a Personal Task Layer

GitHub is a collaboration tool built for teams. Microsoft To Do is a personal productivity tool built for individuals. They serve different purposes, and that is exactly why connecting them is valuable.

The GitHub Microsoft To Do integration via Neotask gives you a single place to see all your work - assigned issues, pending reviews, failing builds, and personal reminders - without context switching. You can plan your day in To Do, then execute in GitHub, confident that nothing assigned to you will slip through the cracks.

How Neotask Coordinates the Integration

Neotask uses GitHub's List Issues and List Pull Requests tools to find work assigned to or requested from you. It then calls Microsoft To Do's Create Task to build the corresponding item with the right priority, due date, and link back to the source. Updates flow in both directions so closing an issue in GitHub marks the task complete automatically.

Developers who connect GitHub to Microsoft To Do through Neotask report fewer missed reviews, faster response to build failures, and a clearer daily work picture.

Getting Started

Describe what you want in plain language. Neotask determines which GitHub events to watch and how to represent them in Microsoft To Do, then runs the sync on the schedule you choose.

Pro Tips

Tip

Create a dedicated To Do list for code reviews so PR reminders stay separate from your regular issue tasks.

Tip

Set label-to-priority mappings early so bug issues automatically become high-priority tasks without extra prompts.

Tip

Run a weekly cleanup prompt to mark completed GitHub issues as done in To Do and keep your list accurate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which GitHub events can create Microsoft To Do tasks?

Neotask supports issue assignments, pull request review requests, failed GitHub Actions runs, issue mentions, and milestone additions as task triggers.

Can I choose which To Do list receives each type of GitHub event?

Yes. You can route issue tasks, PR review tasks, and build failure tasks to separate To Do lists so your work stays organized by type.

Does completing a task in To Do close the GitHub issue?

Neotask can sync in both directions. Closing a GitHub issue marks the To Do task complete. Completing the To Do task can optionally close or comment on the GitHub issue depending on how you configure the workflow.

Will this work across multiple GitHub repositories?

Yes. You can monitor all repositories you have access to or limit the sync to specific repos by naming them in your prompt.

How often does Neotask check for new GitHub assignments?

By default Neotask checks on a schedule you control, typically every few minutes. You can also trigger a manual sync at any time by asking Neotask to run it.
