A parking lot for ideas — not commitments. When one is picked up, move it to ROADMAP.md (active plan) and, once shipped, note it in CHANGELOG.md. The big strategic vision (web/mobile, hosting, mood, notifications) lives in DESIGN.md.

Organization & workflow

  • Task bundles / one-click complete a set (re-raised 2026-06-08). Instead of checking off magnesium, serotonin support, multivitamin, etc. one by one, treat a set as a single unit you can complete (and maybe add/snooze) in one click. Could be a special "bundle" task whose children are sub-items, or a group-level "complete all" action. Distinct from grouping (which only organizes). Likely the highest-value workflow idea for the owner's supplement/meal stacks.
  • Smart / fewer groups. ~20 groups is noisy. Options: sections (group-of-groups), collapse rarely-used groups by default, or auto-group related tasks by context (supplements taken together, a "morning routine"). Maybe ship a few designed templates (Supplements, Meals, Morning) instead of only free-form groups.
  • Clearer recurring instances. A task that recurs as just "meal" is ambiguous — per-occurrence labels (Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner) or a title pattern so the day's instance is self-explanatory.
  • Export (the inverse of import) — round-trip the pipe format for backups/sharing.
  • Bulk edit on web (multi-select → set priority/repeat/due/group, bump).

Tracking & insight

  • Mood tracking + correlation with habit completion / sleep / training (see DESIGN).
  • Richer stats: completion trends, per-group throughput, "best day," calendar view.
  • Streak heatmaps per habit on the desktop too (web has one).

Notifications & reminders

  • Real desktop notifications (toast) on due/checkpoint, not just the passive chip.
  • Web push from the PWA (due reminders, daily mantra, mood check-in) — needs the hosting/auth phase.

UI / UX

  • Quieter priority encoding everywhere (left-bar instead of full-row flood — done on web).
  • Tooltips, friendlier empty states, remember window size/position (desktop).
  • Keyboard-first flow on web (e=edit, d=done, / = focus search).
  • Inline date picker (custom widget; avoid a 3rd-party dep), accessibility (ARIA).
  • Reduce per-row chip clutter on dense lists.

Platform & data

  • SQLite single source of truth (also unblocks safe concurrency) — see ROADMAP.
  • Configurable data dir — done (TINYTASKLIST_DATA_DIR); could add a settings UI.
  • Auth + hosting for private phone access (DESIGN, Phases 3–4).
  • Naming/branding before a public URL (it's really a routine/task/journal/mood companion, not just "Tiny Tasklist").

Quality

  • Add pytest-style coverage reporting (optional; keep stdlib-runnable).
  • A tiny CI (GitHub Actions) running unittest + node --check.
