Quest log

Add a quest, give it to someone, and finish it. A quest is one task. It can be only yours, or on your team’s board.

Before you start: you are signed in. For team quests, you need an active team.

Quest Log panel on the Active tab with a My section of three quests and a Team section of two.
The Quest Log panel: your quests, then the team's.

Add a quest

Section titled “Add a quest”
  1. Open the Quest Log. Hover the Quest Log hub. Or say “new quest” with Voice assistant.
  2. Choose Add task. It is the + button in the panel header.
  3. Write a title. Type it in Title… (required, up to 200 characters). Add a Description (optional) if it helps.
  4. Pick who it is for. Under Scope, choose Me (only you) or Team (your team’s board). Team is greyed out until you have an active team.
  5. Set the details. Choose the List (Active, Next or Backlog), the Priority (low, normal, high), the Type and a Due date (Today, tomorrow, Friday or a date).
  6. Choose Add.

What you’ll see: the quest at the top of the list you chose, in My or Team.

Shortcut: start the title with a type word and a dash or colon. “Bug: login redirect loops” makes a bug titled “login redirect loops”. Recognized words include bug, fix, feature, enhancement, improve, task, chore and todo.

Assign a quest

Section titled “Assign a quest”

On a team quest, point at the row and use the Me button (tooltip Assign to me). It claims the quest for you. Hold the pointer on it to open a list and pick a teammate instead.

To give it back, use the same button (tooltip Release (unassign me)), or choose Unassign in the teammate list. A quest already claimed by someone else asks you to unassign it first.

Finish a quest

Section titled “Finish a quest”
  1. Click Done on the quest row (tooltip Mark done).
  2. Confirm. The button changes to Confirm (tooltip Confirm complete). Click again to finish it. Leave it and it goes back; Undo — keep open also cancels.
  3. Undo if needed. For a moment the row offers Undo completion. After that the quest sits under Done.

To clear old quests, Archive one the same two-click way. Archived quests are in Archived and can be Restored. To bring back a done quest, use its un-done button.

Personal vs team

Section titled “Personal vs team”
  • My shows quests with scope Me. Only you see them.
  • Team shows your active team’s board. Use the team picker to see one team or All teams. Team quests carry a Team quest badge.
  • To move a quest, edit it and change Move to between Me and Team.

Where quests show

Section titled “Where quests show”
  • Tabs: Active (with Next and Backlog beside it), Done (with Archived), and History, a log of recorded changes. Hover Active or Done to reveal the others.
  • Empty lists say “No quests yet” or “Nothing on the team board”, with an Add one button.
  • Right-click the hub, then under Mode choose Frameless for a bare Next Up list with no header. Rows before “Show all” sets how many rows show.
  • Filter narrows by priority, type, creator and assignee. Copy visible tasks copies the list as Markdown, CSV or JSON.
  • Open a quest to read its Comments and write one in Add a comment….
  • In team chat, Share to #… on a finished quest posts it to the team channel.

If it goes wrong

Section titled “If it goes wrong”
  • “Couldn’t load quests”. Chat or the server is unreachable. Choose Retry, or the refresh button in the header.
  • Team is greyed out when adding. You have no active team. Pick one in Preferences, under Teams.
  • A team quest will not assign. Someone else holds it; unassign them first.
