Optional additional event-based triggers to reminder

jrwarwick opened this issue · 1 comments

The reminder skill would be even more useful if reminders could sometimes be made to trigger immediately following Mycroft becoming aware of certain conditions such as a human presence. Some conditions that might constitute awareness: wakeword utterance, sustained high-volume audio (probably people speaking), GPIO sensor input (such as PIR or pressure sensor), home automation event notifications.

An illustrating scenario: I am about to leave to take kids to sports practice, I ask mycroft to remind the next person that comes home to let the dog out for a little while.

I just noticed a skill user story description on the Mycroft forums that overlaps this proposal, or rather, this proposal is a special case of what Kathy Reid terms "implicit events":

Great idea.
