Tasks and task boards
Edit task tickets and organize sibling task files on a board.
One stock plugin provides two related editors: individual tickets and a board that gathers them.
Task files
Section titled “Task files”A .task file stores a single ticket as JSON with a title, description,
and status.
- Ticket is a structured form for editing those fields directly.
- Raw exposes the underlying JSON.
If the JSON is malformed, the Ticket form asks you to repair it in Raw first, rather than guessing at broken data.
Task board files
Section titled “Task board files”A .taskboard file defines a board over the .task files that sit next to it
in the same folder.
- Board collects those sibling tickets into status columns — pending, in progress, complete, and cancelled — with anything using an unrecognized status grouped separately.
- Raw exposes the board definition.
Dragging a card between columns changes that ticket’s status, and editing a card
updates its ticket — both write straight back to the underlying .task
files through Worktray’s scoped workspace access, so the board and the
individual tickets never drift out of sync.
