Tasks

First-class Markdown task items — the human-readable vault view of beads.

The Tasks plugin makes checkbox items in Markdown into real, query-able tasks with due dates, recurrence, and status. In braynee it isn't where work lives — it's where you read it.

Why braynee uses it

beads owns agent task state as the source of truth. Tasks (rendered through Dataview) is the vault-side view of that same work — so you can see what's open next to your notes, in Obsidian, without opening a terminal. braynee syncs it from beads; you read it, you don't hand-edit it.

If you'd rather use the TaskNotes plugin as your vault surface you can wire it yourself, but /braynee:setup does not install it and it isn't required.

How it's set up

Installed into .obsidian/plugins/ by /braynee:setup with the completion and date settings braynee's mirror writes against.
