SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Managing large task lists often results in unstable or inconsistent ordering across different views and sessions, making it hard to prioritize work efficiently.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Four sortable axes: Priority, Due Date, Created Date, and Alphabetical order, with ascending/descending toggles.
  • Deterministic tie-breaking rules ensure stable results when keys collide.
  • Visual indicators and sensible defaults align with common task-management workflows.
  • Use cases include applying sort after filtering, after searches, or when tasks are created or updated to maintain order.

Quick Start

Sort a task list by Priority to see VERY IMPORTANT tasks first, then toggle direction to switch ascending or descending as needed.

Frequently Asked Questions about task-sorting

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I sort a task list by priority and due date at the same time?▼

Multi-criterion task sorting applies multiple sort keys with deterministic tie-breakers to deliver stable, predictable order. You can sort by priority and due date simultaneously, ensuring tasks remain consistently ordered even when keys collide.

Why does my task list order change inconsistently across different views and sessions?▼

Unstable task list ordering occurs without deterministic tie-breaking rules. Applying stable multi-criterion sorting ensures consistent order across filtered views, after task creation or updates, and when toggling ascending or descending directions.

What's the best way to maintain task order after filtering or updating tasks?▼

Applying multi-criterion sorting after filtering, searching, or task updates maintains stable order. The sorting applies four sortable axes—priority, due date, created date, and alphabetical—with deterministic tie-breakers to prevent inconsistent reordering.

Can I toggle between ascending and descending order for task priority sorting?▼

Ascending and descending toggles are supported across all four sortable axes: priority, due date, created date, and alphabetical order. You can switch direction as needed, such as showing very important tasks first with priority sorting.

What are the limitations of relying on a single sort criterion for task management?▼

Single-criterion sorting often produces unstable results when multiple tasks share the same key value. Multi-criterion sorting with deterministic tie-breakers and visual indicators resolves this by applying consistent secondary rules when primary keys collide.
