Today & Inbox
Today view
Section titled “Today view”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.
Inbox view
Section titled “Inbox view”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.
Smart Triage (Pro)
Section titled “Smart Triage (Pro)”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/nametag. - Skip: no change, move to the next suggestion.
See Smart Triage for details.
