GitHub Tasks pulls your Issues, Projects boards, and notifications into one fast, compact list that lives in your menu bar — so you can triage and update work without hunting through browser tabs.
Because the browser makes you go to your work. GitHub Tasks brings it to you — one tray click, always the same place, gone when you're done.
Add a source per repo or Projects board; its items flow into a single keyboard-navigable list that spans every repo you work in.
Add a Source — a Projects v2 board or a (repo, search query) pair — and its items flow into one list. Status pills, priorities, labels, milestones, and a color stripe per row. Multi-select status filters, source filters, and any custom single-select field.
A faithful mirror of github.com/notifications — review requests, mentions, replies, assignments, CI, subscriptions — read and unread, with infinite scroll and search. Filter by category with checkboxes, flip Unread only to cut to the chase, and mark read straight back to GitHub.
The Issues tab runs your GitHub search queries across all your repos and drops the results into the same fast list — assigned to you, your review queue, whatever you define. Linked PRs and milestones fill in automatically.
Spin up a new issue — attach it to a project and set its status, pick the repo, labels, and issue type, assign it to yourself — from a modal that never leaves the menu bar. Then get back to work.
The whole loop, without a single browser tab.
Sign in once with GitHub's device flow — no password, no backend. The token is stored in your OS keychain and nothing leaves your machine.
