Workspace and Task Manager
Local Pin System
Activity Timeline
Features
- Task Explorer: Sidebar workspace manager with custom folders, priority tab, scanned inline comments, notes, tags, and a recycle bin.
- Smart Code Scanning: Automatically scans your workspace for inline
// comments and organizes them into tabs based on folder name matching.
- Local Pin System: Snapshot any file at any point. Compare past states with the current file using a side-by-side diff view.
- Activity Timeline: Every extension action is logged with timestamps, file paths, and line references. Export as JSON, CSV, TXT, or PDF.
- Recycle Bin: Deleted tasks and folders move to a recycle bin. Restore individually, restore all, or permanently delete.
- Priority Tab: Pin any task to a dedicated priority view regardless of which folder it belongs to.
- Note Engine: Attach private markdown notes to any task without modifying your codebase.
- Tagging System: Tag and filter tasks and pins by category or status.
- 100% Local: No accounts, no telemetry, no data leaves your machine.
Getting Started

// comments are scanned automatically on file save.

- Drag and drop tasks between folders.
- Move tasks to the Priority Tab for immediate focus.
- Delete tasks to the Recycle Bin and restore them later.
- Attach notes and tags to individual tasks.
Local Pin System
Never lose an intermediate code state before committing to Git.
- Save automatic snapshots of actively edited files on a configurable interval.
- View all pins in a clean, filterable panel with star and tag support.
- Click View Code on any pin to open a side-by-side diff against the current file.
Activity Timeline
Every extension action generates a log entry with a timestamp, file path, and line reference.
- Filter logs by type, date range, or keyword.
