Scheduling

Four related capabilities for planning work over time: start dates, repeating tasks, task templates, and the My tasks view that ties them together.

Every one of them is reached through the command palette (Ctrl+K / Cmd+K). None of them adds a button or panel to the interface, and none of them has a dedicated keyboard shortcut — search for the command by name.

Start dates

A start date records when work is meant to begin, separately from the due date that records when it must finished.

To set one: open a task, press Ctrl+K, run Set start date. The field accepts natural language — today, tomorrow, next week monday, in 3 days — or pick from the presets. Choose Reset to clear it.

The task detail shows a Start date row only once the field is set; a task without one looks exactly as it did before.

A start date on its own never makes a task overdue. Only a missed due date does that. A task that started last week but has no deadline is current work, not late work, and My tasks files it accordingly.

API

POST /api/tasks/setStartDate
Content-Type: application/json

{ "taskId": 1234, "startDate": "2026-08-10T09:00:00.000Z" }

Pass "startDate": null to clear it. Returns the updated task. Requires membership of the task’s board.

Repeating tasks

A repeating task recreates itself when you finish it.

To set a repeat: open a task, press Ctrl+K, run Repeat task, and choose a cadence:

Cadence	Meaning
`Daily`	Every day
`Weekdays`	Every weekday, Monday to Friday
`Weekly`	Every 7 days
`Biweekly`	Every 14 days
`Monthly`	Same day each month, clamped to the last day of shorter months (31 Jan → 28 Feb)

Choose Don’t repeat to stop a task repeating. The option only appears when a rule is already set. A repeating task shows a Repeats row in the task detail.

What “finishing” means

The next occurrence is created when you move the task into a done column, or archive it yourself. It carries over the title, description, priority, size, labels and assignees, with the date advanced by one period.

Two cases deliberately do not create a new occurrence:

Auto-archive. A board’s auto-archive sweep fires because nobody touched a task, which is abandonment rather than completion. Repeating there would regenerate neglected tasks indefinitely.
Moving the task to another board, including into that board’s done column. Relocating work is not completing it.

Finishing a repeating task late never produces an already-overdue copy: the next date is rolled forward until it is genuinely in the future, keeping the original time of day and, for weekly rules, the original weekday.

If a board has no column that counts as “not done”, the task does not repeat — the new occurrence would otherwise be created directly into a done column, where it would read as finished work the moment it appeared.

API

POST /api/tasks/setRecurrence
Content-Type: application/json

{ "taskId": 1234, "recurrence": "Weekly" }

Valid values: Daily, Weekdays, Weekly, Biweekly, Monthly, or null to stop repeating. Requires membership of the board.

Task templates

A template stores the shape of a task so you can create the same kind of work repeatedly without retyping it. Templates are per board, and capture the title, description, priority, size and labels.

To save one: open a task you want to reuse, press Ctrl+K, run Save task as template. The template is named after the task title.

To use one: from the board, press Ctrl+K, run New task from template, and pick from the list. The new task is created in the board’s first non-done column and opens immediately.

Labels that were deleted after the template was saved are skipped rather than failing the creation.

API

GET    /api/task-templates?projectId=15      # list a board's templates
POST   /api/task-templates                   # { "taskId": 1234, "name": "Weekly review" }
DELETE /api/task-templates                   # { "templateId": 7 }
POST   /api/task-templates/apply             # { "templateId": 7 }

name is optional on create and defaults to the task’s title. All four require membership of the board.

My tasks

My tasks answers “what am I working on today” across every board you belong to. The inbox remains the place to triage what arrived; this is the place to plan.

To open it: Ctrl+K — Go to my tasks, or visit /my-tasks.

It lists every open task assigned to you, grouped by when it needs attention:

Group	Contains
Overdue	A due date that has passed
Today	Due today — plus work whose start date has arrived, which is never counted as overdue
Tomorrow	Due or starting tomorrow
This week	Due or starting before the end of the current week (weeks end Sunday)
Later	Anything further out
No date	No due date and no start date

A task is filed against its start date while that is still in the future, and its due date otherwise. So work that cannot begin until Friday sits under Friday, rather than under a deadline you cannot act on yet.

Navigation matches the inbox and scheduled views: J and K (or the arrow keys) to move, Enter to open, Esc to go back.

The view shows up to 200 tasks, ordered by date. When there are more, it says so at the foot of the list rather than truncating silently.
