Wilma Skill

Overview

Wilma is the Finnish school information system used by schools and municipalities to share messages, news, exams, schedules, homework, and other student-related updates with parents/guardians.

Use the wilma / wilmai CLI in non-interactive mode to retrieve Wilma data for AI agents. Prefer --json outputs and avoid interactive prompts.

Quick start

Install

npm i -g @wilm-ai/wilma-cli

1. Ensure the user has run the interactive CLI once to create ~/.config/wilmai/config.json.
2. Use non-interactive commands with --json.

Core tasks

Daily briefing (start here)

wilma summary --student <id|name> --json
wilma summary --all-students --json

Returns today’s and tomorrow’s schedule, upcoming exams, recent homework, recent news, and recent messages in one call. This is the best starting point for any parent-facing summary.

Schedule

wilma schedule list --when today --student <id|name> --json
wilma schedule list --when tomorrow --student <id|name> --json
wilma schedule list --when week --student <id|name> --json

Homework

wilma homework list --student <id|name> --json

Upcoming exams

wilma exams list --student <id|name> --json

Exam grades

wilma grades list --student <id|name> --json

List students

wilma kids list --json

News and messages

wilma news list --student <id|name> --json
wilma news read <id> --student <id|name> --json
wilma messages list --student <id|name> --folder inbox --json
wilma messages read <id> --student <id|name> --json

Fetch data for all students

All list commands support --all-students:

wilma summary --all-students --json
wilma homework list --all-students --json
wilma exams list --all-students --json

You can also pass a name fragment for --student (fuzzy match).

Notes

• If no --student is provided, the CLI uses the last selected student from ~/.config/wilmai/config.json (or $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/wilmai/config.json).
• If multiple students exist and no default is set, the CLI will print a helpful error with the list of students.
• When the account has multiple students, --student is required for read commands.
• If auth expires or the CLI says no saved profile, re-run wilma interactively or use wilma config clear to reset.
• Run wilma update to update the CLI to the latest version.

Actionability guidance (for parents)

Wilma contains a mix of urgent items and general info. When summarizing for parents, prioritize actionable items:

Include items that:

• Require action or preparation (forms, replies, permissions, materials to bring).
• Announce a deadline or time-specific requirement.
• Describe a schedule deviation or noteworthy event (trips, themed days, school closures, exams).
• Mention homework, exams, or upcoming deadlines.

De-prioritize items that:

• Are purely informational with no action, deadline, or schedule impact.
• Are generic announcements unrelated to the target period.

When in doubt, include and let the parent decide. Prefer a short, structured summary with dates and IDs.

Scripts

Use scripts/wilma-cli.sh for a stable wrapper around the CLI.
