Workspace Layout

Normal use expects one workspace folder:

workspace/
  todo.md
  2026w27/
    2026w27_index.md
    20260701_log.md
    20260702_log.md

Unknown files are ignored. Missing week files can be created from the sidebar. Missing todo.md can be created or imported from the Todo view.

Getting Started

1. Open the app.
2. Select a workspace folder.
3. Create or import todo.md if needed.
4. Use Create week files from the sidebar to initialize the current week.

Workspace location is managed from Settings. The Todo path is derived as <workspace>/todo.md.

Todo

• Enter: add a todo.
• Tab / Shift + Tab: indent or outdent.
• Alt + ArrowUp / Alt + ArrowDown: reorder the focused visible todo.
• Use the toolbar to show row numbers, fold/unfold, undo/redo, reload, and add todos.
• Ctrl + click: select multiple todos.
• Shift + click: select a visible range.
• Right-click selected todos for bulk actions and send-to actions.

Daily Log

Daily logs contain sessions, activities, subjects, time, and notes.

Activity Markdown format:

- {subjects: (rust, ui), time: 120m} Refactored the settings panel layout.

Session suggestions come from the current weekly plan first, then app-local session history.

Weekly Planning

Weekly plan rows have stable IDs and editable activity details:

| ID | Day | Session | Subjects | Target Minutes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | ---: |
| p1 | Fri | Calc1 study | math, geometry | 180 |

## Weekly Plan Details

<!-- tracker:plan-details:start -->

### p1

- {subjects: (math), time: 30m} Solve examples

<!-- tracker:plan-details:end -->

Plan card subject and time summaries are derived from planned activities. Weekly actuals are derived from daily logs and remain read-only.
