Today & Inbox

Open via Cmd+Shift+D or the ribbon icon.

Shows three groups:

  • Overdue: tasks with due dates before today. Sorted by priority, then oldest first.
  • Today: tasks due or scheduled today. Sorted by priority.
  • Completed Today: tasks you finished today, with strikethrough.

Click any task to open the edit modal. Right-click for quick actions (reschedule, complete, delete). Check the checkbox to complete inline.

Open via command palette > “Pensum: Open Inbox view.”

Shows open tasks in your configured inbox files (default: Tasks/Inbox.md). Sorted newest first.

The inbox is for unprocessed tasks — things you captured but haven’t assigned to a project yet. Once a task has a project (via Smart Triage or manual assignment), it disappears from the inbox.

Click Suggest Projects in the inbox header. AI analyzes each task and suggests a project. For each suggestion:

  • Accept: inbox tasks move to the project file. Meeting action items get a #project/name tag.
  • Skip: no change, move to the next suggestion.

See Smart Triage for details.
