Task Management

MoreInfo uses standard Markdown task syntax so your tasks are readable in any editor — no special format, no lock-in.

Creating Tasks

A task is a list item with a checkbox:

- [ ] Write the quarterly report
- [ ] Review pull request #42
- [x] Send invoice to client

• - [ ] — incomplete task
• - [x] — completed task

Click the checkbox in MoreInfo's editor to toggle completion. The x is written back to the file immediately.

Due Dates

Add a due date with the @due() annotation:

- [ ] File tax return @due(2026-04-30)
- [ ] Team standup @due(tomorrow)

MoreInfo recognises both ISO dates (2026-04-30) and natural language (today, tomorrow, next friday).

Priority

Mark a task as high-priority with ! at the start of the task text:

- [ ] ! Fix the production bug
- [ ] Refactor the auth module

Priority tasks float to the top of filtered views in the Tasks widget.

The Tasks Widget

Open the Tasks widget in the sidebar panel to see all incomplete tasks across every note in your vault. From the widget you can:

• Filter by due date (overdue, today, this week, all)
• Filter by note or folder
• Sort by priority, creation date, or due date
• Click any task to jump directly to the note that contains it
• Check tasks off without opening the note

Completing Tasks

Click a checkbox in the editor or in the Tasks widget to mark it complete. The underlying file is updated immediately. Completed tasks stay in the note for reference and can be toggled visible or hidden in the widget with the Show completed toggle.

Nesting Tasks

Indent tasks to create subtask hierarchies:

- [ ] Ship v1.1
  - [x] Write release notes
  - [ ] Build DMG
  - [ ] Upload to GitHub Releases

Parent tasks show a progress indicator in the widget based on how many subtasks are complete.
