Today

Where the day starts: what’s true right now, and the short list of things that want an answer.

The headline

The date, and one sentence of state — “4 things want an answer — 2 overdue.” The corner is a clock cluster: your time (from the machine, never stored) with up to two other places behind it. Click the cluster to choose the places; pick a city and it sets the zone and the label in one go.

The widget row

Four seats, each swappable — hover a card and the ⌄ offers the rest: Month so far (“November, so far” is the work done to date; the month’s bookings and how many of its weekdays they fill sit beneath), Cash (the projected balance at the end of this month, over a line of the next 12, with the runway date and invoices out), Availability (your earliest free stretch, and how much of it is on hold), Charts (a small chart of your monthly average income, average spending or the balance ahead — the chip in its corner cycles them), At the desk (a day timer that logs hours onto a job) and Focus (25-minute sprints, then five off). Your picks travel with the document, so both machines lay the row out the same way.

Needs you

The attention engine’s action items — the same rows as the bell () in the top bar, with the same controls. Each carries its own answer: an overdue invoice offers Mark paid, a booking starting soon offers its timeline, an enquiry that’s gone quiet offers Archive. The clock icon snoozes, the × dismisses; both are remembered, and an item only returns if the facts behind it change. When the list is empty, the page says so and means it: nothing needs you.

The note cards

Beside Needs you sits a small pack of index cards, one tab each. The To-do card is your running list: each line can carry a due date and a linked project (the project button wears the job’s own status colour), and priority is a typed mark that cycles — nothing → ! → !! — sorting within its band. A to-do past its date doesn’t just sit there: it raises its own line in Needs you, with a Done button that ticks it off from there.

The other tabs are cards for your projects, each in its own colour; the card for a job you’re on today comes to the front by itself. Click a circle to finish a line; right-click it to mark it important, then urgent; drag a circle to reorder, and Tab indents. The + at the head of the tabs starts a card — blank, or for a project — and a crowded strip folds the other tabs down to an emoji or a few letters. Drag a tab to reorder it; right-click it to rename, archive or close it. The arrow in the card’s corner lifts it into a small window of its own that floats above whatever you’re working in.

All notes lays every card over the window at once — the live ones, what you’ve filed, what’s deleted, and the lot grouped by client. A closed card waits in Deleted for thirty days before it’s gone for good. Settings → Appearance can move the tabs from down the card’s side to across its top.

Next 7 days

Under Needs you, the Next 7 days strip shows the week ahead — booked days, holds, deadlines — with the calendar one click away, and names your next open window.

The bell in the top bar counts only actions — things with an answer. Insights (patterns worth knowing, nothing to click) ride behind them and never count toward the badge.
