Daily shutdown

Daily shutdown reviews your day from your tasks. It groups the tasks due today into planned and done, and planned and still open, lists the tasks you finished that were not planned for today, and suggests what to carry over: the planned tasks still open plus any overdue open tasks. A streak badge appears when you completed at least one task today.

• Runs entirely on your device, even offline
• Celebrates off-script wins, not just planned completions
• A streak flame appears when you completed something today

• Today is your own local date, so the day changes at your midnight. A task due today is matched on its due date. A task counts as completed on the local day it was last updated while marked done, so editing a finished task later moves it to that day.

1. 1Open Daily shutdown from the sidebar at the end of the day. It sits in Plan under Tasks and Planning, beside Weekly review, which is the same activity at a slower cadence. The command palette finds it too.
2. 2Review the completed, planned but not done, and carry over for tomorrow sections. Each task opens in My Work.
3. 3Choose Complete shutdown to mark the review as done for this visit. It changes no task and is not kept after you leave the page.

Why does my day appear to end at the wrong time?

The page starts from your own local date, so the day changes at your midnight. A due date is a calendar date and matches the day exactly. A completed task counts on the local day it was last updated, which is usually the day you completed it.

Does the summary count work I did that was not planned?

Yes, and deliberately. Tasks are bucketed into planned and done, planned and missed, and unplanned and done, so a day spent on work nobody scheduled still reads as a day of work rather than as a failure.

Does this need a network connection?

No. The summary is worked out on your device from the tasks it already holds, so it works offline and does not wait on a request to tell you how the day went.
