Task Management

Searching

Press : to focus the search input. Search is case-insensitive and matches against both subject and description fields. Results update in real-time as you type.

Escape — clear search text (first press) or exit search (second press)
Enter — confirm search and return focus to task table

Filtering

Press Shift+F to cycle through status filters:

All → Pending → In Progress → Completed → All

The active filter is shown in the task table footer. The "Pending" filter matches both pending and blocked statuses.

Sorting

Key	Sort By	Notes
`Shift+I`	ID	Numeric comparison for numeric IDs
`Shift+T`	Title	Alphabetical by subject
`Shift+S`	Status	Order: in_progress → pending → blocked → completed
`Shift+D`	Date	By last modified time

Pressing the same sort key again toggles between ascending and descending. The current sort field and direction are shown in the table subtitle.

The details panel shows the task ID, subject, status, and description rendered as markdown in a scrollable area.

Dependencies

Tasks can have dependency relationships:

Blocked By (panel 3) — tasks that must complete before the selected task can start
Blocks (panel 4) — tasks that are waiting on the selected task

Both panels show the dependency count in their title (e.g., "Blocked By (2)"). They are hidden when no dependencies exist. Selecting a dependency navigates to that task in the table.

Progress Tracking

The task table footer displays a progress summary showing completed tasks vs total tasks for the current filter. Progress is calculated in real-time as task statuses change.

Real-Time Updates

Huba watches task directories for changes using a file watcher. When Claude Code creates, modifies, or deletes a task file, the UI updates automatically.
