feat(tasks): Linear-grade tasks UI & UX (0198) - #167
Merged
Conversation
Changelog: Add exploration 0198 mapping the current tasks surface against Linear's navigation/view/render patterns and proposing a 4-phase plan (render+density, interaction parity, IA+detail slide-over, model extensions). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Changelog: Tasks list gains sticky group headers with count badges and a hover "+ add", a compact/comfortable density toggle, multi-select plumbing on TaskRow, and an opt-in "Linear" violet accent theme variant (Settings → Appearance → Accent). Implements Phase 1 of exploration 0198. - TaskRow: density (comfortable/compact) + left-edge selection checkbox - TaskListGrouped: sticky headers, count badge, group "+ add", density, selection passthrough - tokens.css/ThemeProvider: opt-in `data-variant='linear'` violet accent - settings: Appearance → Accent (Monochrome / Linear) - TasksView: density toggle, create-in-group Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Changelog: The Tasks surface gains Linear-style multi-select with a floating bulk-action bar, Space-to-peek, and a fuller keyboard model. `x` now selects (Shift-click range, ⌘A all, Esc clear); bulk status/priority/assign/delete apply in one optimistic batch. New verbs: a assign, i assign-me, l label, r rename, ⌘. copy id. Implements Phase 2 of exploration 0198. - CommandRegistry.commandsForScopes() helper (+ test) - TaskBulkBar + TaskPeek components (+ tests) - TaskMiniPalette generalized to per-option icons (assignee/label pickers) - TasksView: selection state, bulk handlers (mutate batch / remove), keyboard verbs, peek Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Changelog: Tasks gains a Linear-style detail slide-over (the list stays visible behind it), a filter bar (F) with Property: Value chips, and a Display Options popover (V) for grouping (status/priority/assignee/none), ordering, density, and show-completed — persisted locally. Implements the view-level half of Phase 3 of exploration 0198. - grouping.ts: generic buildTaskGroups + orderTasks (+ tests) - TaskListGrouped: renders any groupBy with the right header glyph - TaskFilterBar + task-filter (pure, tested) and TaskDisplayOptions (+ tests) - TasksView: detail slide-over (Sheet), filter/display bar, f/v shortcuts, show-completed, localStorage-persisted display settings Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Changelog: The Tasks surface gains a Linear-style left sub-nav (Views: All Issues / My Issues / Triage, plus the Projects list) on desktop; the top-bar tabs remain on compact widths. Completes the IA half of Phase 3 of exploration 0198. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Changelog: Mark exploration 0198 implemented (Phases 1–3) and record the browser-verified validation results. Phase 4 (estimate/relations/cycles) and a few Phase 3 sub-items (node-backed SavedView, @xnetjs/views extraction, deep mobile) remain explicit follow-ups.

…caffold test Changelog: none (CI/test hygiene). - apps/web task-filter.test.ts: apply Prettier formatting (CI format-check). - packages/cli connector.test.ts: the scaffolder emits a LICENSE (marketplace requirement, #157) but this expected-file list was stale and red on main already — align it with plugin.test.ts, which already expects LICENSE.

## What Backfills the changelog so it reflects what's live on `main`. The per-PR fragment system (exploration 0197) was current through PR #163 (PR #178 backfilled #151/#153/#156/#157/#160/#163), but the recent **0198/0199 batch** and a couple of stragglers shipped without entries. This adds 7 fragments, with prose lifted from each PR's own `## Changelog` block where present. | PR | Entry | Tags | |---|---|---| | #143 | AI chat that knows your workspace | `ai` | | #167 | Linear-grade Tasks | `tasks` `app` | | #169 | Cleaner page editor typography | `editor` | | #170 | Bring your Slack data into xNet | `plugins` `platform` | | #171 | Smoother, more consistent motion | `app` | | #173 | Airtable-grade database grids | `app` | | #174 | A redesigned chat & channels experience | `app` | ## Deliberately excluded - **In-editor AI (#154 / #158)** — shipped the transform engine + diff/approval logic, but both PRs state the `/ai` UI wiring into the running app is **deferred**, so it isn't user-visible yet. An entry would overclaim. - **Slack (#170)** — entry scoped to the migration connector + compatibility layer (genuinely live); avoids claiming the webhook/slash-command hub endpoints work, since they're generic-over-an-injected-sink and not mounted in a running server yet. - Pure infra/ops/docs PRs (cloud M1/M2, CI, runbooks) — not user-facing. ## Verification - `validate-changelog.ts` → **26 fragments valid** (19 existing + 7 new) - `prettier --check` on all new files → clean - Newest-first ordering confirmed — the 7 entries slot in at the top ## Changelog <!-- This PR only adds changelog fragments for already-merged work; it ships no user-facing change of its own. --> 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code)

Implements exploration 0198 — make the Tasks surface look and behave a lot more like Linear (navigate / view / render), without breaking xNet's two load-bearing opinions: tasks stay one canonical node projected across surfaces (0161), and chrome stays monochrome by default (0166).
Changelog
The Tasks surface (
