User Guide: Desktop

The Mindwtr desktop app is built with Tauri v2, providing a lightweight, fast experience across Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Overview

The desktop app features a sidebar navigation with all GTD views and a main content area.

Interaction Patterns

• Single click toggles task details.
• Double click on a task opens full edit mode. To rename just the title in place, pick Rename task from the task's ⋯ menu (Enter saves, Esc cancels).
• Click outside an open task editor to close it while nothing was changed; once a field was edited, closing requires Save, Cancel, or Esc.
• Right click opens context menus (projects, tasks).
• Keyboard first: global shortcuts and Vim/Emacs modes are optimized for desktop workflows.

If you keep pushing a task's due date later, its row shows a small hourglass badge with the number of postponements (after the third push) next to the due date. The badge is a nudge that the task may need re-clarifying, delegating, or dropping instead of another deferral.

Most task lists share the same control row for selecting tasks, filtering, sorting, grouping, showing details, and switching list density (Comfortable, Compact, or Condensed). Use Group to organize Inbox, Next, Waiting, Someday/Maybe, Reference, Done, Archived, and other list views by metadata such as context, area, project, or tag. Done and Archived add a Completion date grouping — Today, Yesterday, Previous 7 days, then one heading per calendar month for anything older (January 2026, December 2025, …), and Not completed — using your local calendar days, so each reads as a log of what you finished when. Empty groups are hidden, the ungrouped catch-all (No project, No context, General, and so on) comes last, and every group heading collapses — each list remembers which of its groups are folded per grouping mode on that device.

Drag a task onto Inbox, Someday/Maybe, Waiting For, Reference, Done, or Archived in the sidebar to change its status; the toast offers Undo. Trash is not a drop target. Drop the task on Calendar, or pause over Calendar while dragging, to open today with the task still in hand. Schedule view switches to Week so you can drop it on a day and time.

Focus Mode

Use Focus Mode to hide the sidebar and keep the list centered (800px max width).

• Toggle with Ctrl+\ (Windows/Linux) or Cmd+\ (macOS)
• Great for deep work or reviews

System Tray

Mindwtr runs in the background to handle auto-sync.

• Closing the window minimizes the app to the system tray instead of quitting.
• Click the tray icon to show/hide the window.
• Hover the tray icon to see the Today's Focus count and as many task titles as fit on supported systems.
• Right-click the tray icon to Quit the application completely.
• Launching at login starts the window hidden in the tray automatically, as long as the tray icon is enabled; opening the app yourself always shows the window. Microsoft Store builds also show the window when launched at login because their startup task cannot pass the tray-start signal.

Views

📥 Inbox

Your capture zone. All new tasks land here before processing.

• Add tasks using the input field at the bottom
• Quick-add syntax is supported (see Getting Started)
• Use the star beside the Quick Add input when a new task should go straight into Today's Focus. The same star also sits in the task editor's header. Starring counts as clarifying: a starred capture is created as a Next Action rather than an Inbox item, and moving a starred task back to Inbox removes its star.
• Process Inbox using the clarify workflow
• Mind Sweep prompts you through common life/work areas when you want a guided capture session instead of a blank input.

🎯 Focus

Your unified dashboard for daily engagement. Focus is not a full inventory of every task with status next; it narrows the list to work that is available now.

• Today's Focus: Starred priority tasks for deep work, up to your configured Focus limit. Focused Next tasks also show a small filled star beside their title in task lists and on the Board, so Focus membership reads at a glance.
• Overdue: Past due items.
• Due Today: Tasks due today.
• Next Actions: Ready tasks without due dates, filtered by context.
• Review Due: Items with tickler dates.

Focus hides future-start tasks and later tasks in sequential projects. Use Contexts, Projects, or Search when you need to inspect broader task inventory.

Default Next Actions order: Focus puts due-soon actions first, undated actions next, and far-future due actions last. Within the same bucket it uses priority when enabled, then start time, creation date, title, and id. See GTD Workflow in Mindwtr for the full logic.

Features:

• Context Filters: Filter Next Actions by context (e.g., @home, @work) or tag. The filter picker groups contexts and tags so long metadata lists stay scannable.
• Group by Context: Use the list grouping control to group Next Actions by primary context, with context-less tasks collected under No context.
• Saved Filters: Save reusable Focus criteria such as projects, contexts, tags, priority, energy level, and time estimates.
• Zen Mode: Toggle to hide everything except Today's Focus tasks.
• Pomodoro (Optional): Enable in Settings → GTD → Features → Pomodoro timer to show a focus/break timer panel (15/3, 25/5, 50/10, plus one optional custom preset). Leave it as Timer only, or turn on Link timer to task to show the Timer task picker and Mark task done action.

📁 Projects

Multi-step outcomes containing related tasks.

• Sequential mode: Only the first available project task appears in Focus; in the project view the available action is highlighted and queued tasks render muted
• Parallel mode: All available project tasks can appear in Focus
• Sequential scope: Sequential projects can advance project-wide or section-by-section; section scope shows the first available task in each section.
• Status: Active, Waiting, Someday, Archived
• Areas of Focus: Group projects by higher-level areas (e.g., Work, Health) to keep your sidebar organized. Drag a project onto an area to move it there; while dragging, collapsed and empty areas (and No area) show up as drop targets too.
• Move tasks by drag: Drag a task from the open project's list onto another project in the sidebar to move it there (it lands after the target's existing tasks), or onto an area header to make it a direct area task. Works in every sort mode; a Moved to … toast offers one-click Undo, and archived projects don't accept drops.
• Project tags: Tag projects and filter by tag
• Support notes: Add planning notes and reference material
• Sections: Optional task groupings inside a project (phases, milestones, sub-workstreams). Sections are headings inside one project, not subtasks or separate projects.
• Review date: Set tickler dates for project review
• Archive: Completing a project means archiving it — remaining tasks are completed with it, and Reactivate undoes it

The Project Section field in the task editor assigns a task to one of the sections in its current project. It only has a useful value after the task belongs to a project that has sections.

🏷️ Contexts

Filter tasks by location or tool context:

• @home, @work, @errands, @agendas
• @computer, @phone, @anywhere

🏷️ Tags

Filter tasks by energy level, mode, or topic:

• Energy: #focused, #lowenergy, #creative
• Topic: #health, #finance

⏳ Waiting For

Track delegated items or tasks waiting on external events.

💭 Someday/Maybe

Incubate ideas you might want to pursue later.

🗓️ Calendar

Time-based view of tasks with due dates or start times.

On wide layouts, the Calendar includes a Plan next actions panel for the selected day. It surfaces unscheduled Next Actions and due-but-unscheduled tasks so you can place them into open time without leaving Calendar. Collapse the panel when you want more room for the day/week grid.

Right-click a task in Calendar for the normal task actions, including Remove from calendar.

📋 Board View

Kanban-style drag-and-drop board with columns:

• Inbox: Unprocessed items
• Next Actions: Ready to work on
• Waiting For: Delegated items
• Someday/Maybe: Deferred items
• Done: Completed tasks

Drag cards within a column to set manual board order. Moving a task to another status clears its old column order so it can be ordered in the new column.

Use the Board search field to narrow visible cards by title, notes, project, context, or tag. The filter button opens quick filters for contexts, tags, due dates, and projects; context and tag chips cycle through include, exclude (struck through), and off, and Clear filters removes both search text and active filters.

✅ Done

Recently completed tasks. Use this as your short-term completion log for daily or weekly review.

If you finished a task earlier than you marked it Done, click its Completed timestamp to correct it. You can also right-click the complete button on any open task to mark it Done as of an earlier time. This helps when the completion time matters for your records or for "repeat after completion" scheduling.

Choose Select to pick tasks or Select All, then use Move → Archived to file the selection away early.

📦 Archived

Completed tasks that have been filed away. Archived tasks are hidden from normal task lists, but you can search or restore them here. Click a task's title to open its notes, subtasks, and attachments read-only, without restoring it. Click the Completed timestamp to correct it, or use the row's restore action to send the task back to the Inbox. A Tasks | Projects switch at the top shows archived projects instead: restoring one reactivates it (bringing back the tasks completed with it), and deleting moves it to the Trash.

Archived shares the control row used by the other task lists: Filters narrows by context, tag, priority, and time estimate, while Sort and Group both offer Completion date, since everything here is finished work. The newest completion comes first by default. Filter selections are shared across the task lists, so a context picked elsewhere narrows this list too.

Choose Select to pick tasks or Select All. You can move the selection back to Done without changing its completion time, restore it to Inbox, or move it to Trash. Mindwtr permanently deletes tasks only from Trash.

🗑️ Trash

Deleted tasks and projects, newest first. Restore items, delete them permanently, or use Clear Trash to empty everything at once. Choose Select to pick several tasks and projects (or Select All) and restore or permanently delete them in one step. Permanent deletion always asks for confirmation.

📝 Weekly Review

Guided GTD review wizard with steps:

1. Process Inbox
2. Review Calendar
3. Follow up Waiting For
4. Review Projects
5. Review Someday/Maybe

Use the Process Inbox action in the review to clear captured items before continuing through calendar, waiting-for, projects, and someday review.

See Weekly Review for detailed guidance.

AI Assistant (Optional)

Enable in Settings → AI assistant:

• Clarify: turn vague tasks into concrete next actions
• Break down: generate checklist steps for big tasks
• Review analysis: highlight stale tasks during review
• Copilot: context/tag/time suggestions while typing

AI is optional and only runs when you request it.

---

Reusable Lists

Use checklists as templates:

• Duplicate task: copy a master list (packing, travel prep)
• Reset checklist: uncheck everything for reuse (groceries)

---

Task Editor (View + Edit)

• Click a task to open a read-only view of all details.
• Press Edit (or e) to switch to edit mode.
• The editor starts minimal. Use More options to reveal advanced fields.
• Project Section is an organizational field for tasks inside a sectioned project. Leave it blank for Inbox tasks, unassigned tasks, or projects without sections.
• Status, Priority, and Energy Level use pill controls instead of dropdowns for faster keyboard and pointer selection.
• Open a date field's calendar to pick quick suggestions beside the month grid: Today, Tomorrow, +2 days, +3 days, Next week, Next month, and No date.
• In Settings → GTD → Task Editor Layout, choose whether the desktop editor opens as the inline side peek or a centered pop-up.

---

Calendar Integration

Mindwtr can overlay external calendars in the Calendar view. On macOS it can read Apple Calendar through EventKit; on all desktop platforms it can read direct ICS subscription URLs. Add an ICS URL in Settings → Integrations → Calendar when you need an ICS subscription. External events are read-only, but you can create a separate Mindwtr task from an event in Calendar; Mindwtr copies the event title, date/time, location, description, and calendar name where available. Use Plan next actions in Calendar to turn the selected day into a planning surface: review unscheduled work, choose a task, and schedule it into a free slot while keeping due dates as deadlines. On macOS, Push tasks to calendar can also write scheduled/due Mindwtr tasks into a selected writable Apple Calendar target. See Calendar Integration for setup details.

🔍 Global Search

Powerful search with operators to find anything instantly.

Open: Press / or Ctrl/Cmd + K or click the search icon.

Search text is optional. Open Filters to list matching items by status, scope, area, due date, location, context, or tag; choose Done and Archived (or Include Done and Archived tasks) when you want completed items.

Search Operators

Operator	Example	Description
status:	status:next	Filter by task status
-status:	-status:done	Exclude a status
context:	context:@home	Filter by context
tag:	tag:#focused	Filter by tag
assigned:	assigned:Tom	Filter by delegated assignee
project:	project:HomeReno	Filter by project name or ID
location:	location:office	Filter by task location
where:	where:office	Alias for task location
id:	id:abc123	Find an exact task ID
-id:	-id:abc123	Exclude an exact task ID
due:	due:today	Tasks due on date
due:<=	due:<=7d	Tasks due within 7 days
start:	start:>=tomorrow	Tasks starting from date
created:	created:>=30d	Tasks created in last 30 days
OR	@home OR @work	Match either condition

A leading - negates any operator, not just the two shown: -context:@computer lists only tasks that don't require @computer, -tag:#deep hides a tag, -project:HomeReno excludes a project.

Date formats: today, tomorrow, 7d (7 days), 2w (2 weeks), 1m (1 month), 2025-01-15

Saved Searches

Saved Searches are shortcuts for reusable search queries:

1. Enter your search query with operators
2. Click "Save Search" button
3. Name your search (e.g., "Work tasks due soon")
4. Access from the Saved Searches section in the sidebar

To delete a saved search: Open the saved search, then click the trash icon.

Saved Searches are separate from Saved Filters in Focus. Focus Saved Filters sync as filter criteria and are edited from the Focus filter controls.

Quick Capture

Global Hotkey

Capture tasks from anywhere on your desktop without switching windows:

1. Press the global hotkey (Ctrl+Alt+M)
2. Type your task with quick-add syntax
3. Press Enter to add to Inbox
4. Continue what you were doing

You can change or disable this shortcut in Settings → General → Input → Global quick add shortcut. Defaults follow platform conventions:

• macOS: Ctrl+Option+M (default), Ctrl+Option+N, Ctrl+Option+Q, or legacy Cmd+Shift+A
• Linux: Ctrl+Alt+M (default), Ctrl+Alt+N, Ctrl+Alt+Q, or legacy Ctrl+Shift+A
• Windows: disabled by default so Mindwtr never silently takes a key combination away from other apps; Ctrl+Alt+M is the recommended choice when you enable one
• Avoid the legacy Ctrl+Shift+A option: Chrome, Word, and Excel all use it, and a global hotkey overrides them system-wide

Flatpak/Wayland note: Some compositors do not allow app-registered global shortcuts. In that case, bind your desktop shortcut to flatpak run tech.dongdongbh.mindwtr --quick-add instead.

Tray Icon

Click the system tray icon for instant capture:

• Quick-add input appears
• Use natural language syntax
• Task goes directly to Inbox

Add Task Dialog Shortcuts

The Add Task dialog is fully keyboard-driven:

• Enter: save and close
• Shift+Enter: save and keep the dialog open for the next task (batch capture)
• Ctrl+Enter (⌘Enter on macOS): save and open the task in the full editor
• Esc: close without saving
• While a suggestion popup is open (@, #, +, %, !, /), ↑/↓ move through the suggestions and Enter or Tab inserts the highlighted one

Quick-Add Syntax

Mindwtr parses natural language when adding tasks:

Syntax	Example	Result
@context	@home	Adds context
#tag	#focused	Adds tag
+Project	+HomeReno	Assigns to project
+Multi Word	+New Project	Assigns to "New Project"
+"Quoted Name"	+"New Project" call Bob	Quotes delimit a multi-word name mid-sentence (also !"Area Name")
!Area	Plan roadmap !Work	Assigns to area
%Person	Ask %Jim for budget	Sets Assigned to (delegated / waiting-for owner); %"Full Name" for new multi-word names
/area:<name>	/area:Personal	Assigns to area (no spaces)
/due:date	/due:friday	Sets due date
/energy:<level>	/energy:medium	Sets energy level (low, medium, high)
/note:text	/note:call back	Adds description
/status	/next, /waiting, /someday, /done, /archived, /inbox	Sets status

Date formats: today, tomorrow, friday, next week, in 3 days, 2025-01-15, 26.06., 26.06.2026

A date or time phrase at the end of what you type becomes the due date: Grab a coffee with Marta Jun 23 6pm creates a task due June 23 at 6pm. Detection only reads the end of the text, so a title like "Review June report" stays untouched. By default those matched words stay in the title; turn on Clean up quick add text (Settings → GTD) to remove them too, leaving "Grab a coffee with Marta". The setting covers only this ambiguous case — syntax the parser recognizes and applies always leaves the title. Turn off Detect natural-language dates (Settings → GTD, on by default) to keep date phrases literal with no date set. Explicit tokens like /due:friday work regardless and take priority over detection. Both settings sync across your devices.

---

Notifications & Reminders

Mindwtr sends desktop notifications to keep you on track:

Types of Notifications

• Due date reminders: Alerts when tasks are due
• Start time alerts: Reminds you when it's time to begin
• Recurring task reminders: Notifications for recurring items

Tasks with a due time can set Repeat reminder to 5, 10, 15, 30, or 60 minutes. For tasks with a timed start or due date, Skip reminders turns off start and due reminders while the task stays visible in Focus and lists.

Settings

Configure notifications in Settings:

• Enable/disable notifications
• Set reminder lead time

Platform notes:

• macOS will prompt for notification permission the first time you enable it.
• Linux requires a running notification daemon (GNOME/KDE, etc.).

---

Task Management

Creating Tasks

1. Use the input field at the bottom of any list view
2. Use the global hotkey from anywhere
3. Click the tray icon for quick capture
4. On Flatpak/Wayland, bind flatpak run tech.dongdongbh.mindwtr --quick-add as a custom shortcut if the built-in hotkey is unavailable
5. Type your task title with quick-add syntax

Recurring Tasks

When you complete a recurring task, Mindwtr automatically creates the next instance with updated dates.

• Strict (default): keeps a fixed schedule cadence. Example: every 5 days remains anchored to the planned cycle.
• Repeat after completion: shifts the next due date from completion time. Example: complete now, next is due 5 days later.
• Ends: Never / On date / After N occurrences: choose whether the series runs forever, stops on a specific date, or stops after a fixed number of occurrences. After N occurrences counts the current task as part of the series total.

Mindwtr keeps one active instance of a recurring task. The Calendar shows that current instance when it has a due date or start time; future occurrences are not pre-filled until the current one is completed unless Show future occurrences in Calendar is enabled for a planning-only preview.

You can toggle this in the task editor recurrence field using Repeat after completion. Use the same recurrence sheet to set an end date or an occurrence count when you need the series to stop automatically.

---

Bulk Actions

Select multiple tasks to perform batch operations:

1. Click "Select" button in the list header
2. Click tasks to select/deselect them
3. Use the action bar to:
   • Move: Change status for all selected
   • Assign Area: Move all selected tasks under a specific area (or clear the area)
   • Add Tag: Add a tag to all selected
   • Remove Tag: Remove one or more tags from all selected tasks
   • Add Context: Add a context to all selected tasks
   • Remove Context: Remove a context from all selected tasks
   • Delete: Delete all selected
4. Click "Done" to exit selection mode

Sorting

Use the sort dropdown to order tasks by:

• Default (status-based)
• Due date
• Start date
• Review date
• Title (alphabetical)
• Created (oldest/newest)
• Completion date (Done only) — newest first, with anything never completed last

Inside a project, the chosen sort is remembered per project and syncs to your other devices. Projects without a chosen sort use manual order, and drag-reordering stays available while a project is on Default.

---

Hierarchical Contexts & Tags

Organize with nested contexts and tags:

Example	Matches
@work	@work, @work/meetings, etc.
@work/meetings	Only @work/meetings
#health	#health, #health/diet, etc.

Filtering by a parent context includes all children.

See Desktop Keyboard Shortcuts for the complete list.

Quick reference (Standard):

• /: Open search
• ?: Show shortcuts help
• gi: Go to Inbox
• gn: Go to Next
• gf: Go to Focus
• j/k: Move selection down/up
• Enter: Open selected task
• Shift+Enter: Edit selected task
