The task detail

Clicking a card opens the task over the board. Everything about the task lives here.

The task detail

  • Title and status. The status chip at the top is a dropdown — changing it moves the task on the board.
  • Description. Markdown, with an Edit toggle. Changes save on their own; the header tells you when everything is saved.
  • Acceptance criteria. A checklist with a progress bar. Add a line with Add criterion, tick items as they are met. This is the same field the API and MCP call acceptanceCriteria.
  • Linked work. Pull requests matched to the task key, plus dependencies and subtasks.
  • Comments and History at the bottom.

On the right: assignee, priority, type (category), due date, sprint, repeat rule, and every custom field the project defines. Below them, who reported the task, and Delete task.

Watch subscribes you to notifications for the task. Duplicate clones it — handy for recurring chores that are not on a schedule.

Set Repeats to daily, weekly or monthly and the task recreates itself the moment it reaches a done column. The copy comes back with the same description and criteria, unticked.
