About
The daily-task-manager skill operationalizes day-to-day execution in gbrain by maintaining live task lists, priorities, and completion state so agents and users share one actionable view of what must happen today.
- Maintains daily task backlog state
- Supports priority and status updates
- Coordinates human and agent to-dos
- Captures completion and blockers
- Feeds progress into gbrain memory

Daily Task Manager
Contract
This skill guarantees:
- Tasks stored as a brain page (
ops/tasks.md) with structured format - Task lifecycle: add → in-progress → complete | defer
- Priority levels: P0 (urgent), P1 (today), P2 (this week), P3 (backlog)
- Completed tasks archived with completion date
- Deferred tasks carry forward with reason
Phases
1. Load current tasks. gbrain get ops/tasks — read the task list. 2. Execute the requested action:
- Add: Append task with priority, description, due date. Add timeline entry.
- Complete: Mark as done, move to completed section with date.
- Defer: Move to next day/week with reason.
- Remove: Delete from list (rare, prefer complete or defer).
- Review: Display all active tasks by priority.
3. Save. gbrain put ops/tasks — write updated task list.
Output Format
# Tasks
## P0 — Urgent
- [ ] {task description} (due: {date})
## P1 — Today
- [ ] {task description}
## P2 — This Week
- [ ] {task description}
## P3 — Backlog
- [ ] {task description}
## Completed
- [x] {task} (completed: {date})Anti-Patterns
- Adding tasks without a priority level
- Completing tasks without recording the completion date
- Deferring tasks without a reason
- Letting the task list grow unbounded (review weekly)
- Storing tasks outside the brain (they should be searchable)
