Changelog

What’s new in Hypertask — updated daily.

April 21, 2026

New Features

AI Chat is now an agentic system — AI Chat has been upgraded from a conversational assistant to an action-taking agent. It can now create tasks, update properties, assign team members, and manage your board directly from the chat interface — no separate tool call needed. (HTPR-3543)
MCP and AI Chat can move tickets between boards — Agents can now move tasks between projects and boards using hypertask_move_task_between_boards or by asking AI Chat. This closes the gap between the web command center and agent interfaces. (HTPR-3590)
CLI: full label management — The CLI now supports listing project labels and managing labels on tasks. Use hypertask project labels <project-id> to browse available labels, and hypertask task update <ticket> --labels <name> to add or change labels on existing tasks. (HTPR-2996, HTPR-3029, HTPR-3105)

Bug Fixes

Fixed: Task Writer mobile view rendering — A rendering discrepancy in the Task Writer’s mobile view has been resolved. The accept button and viewport now behave consistently across environments. (HTPR-3109)

New Features

AI Chat now available on mobile — The full AI Chat experience is now accessible on mobile devices. Open AI Chat full-screen to get the same context-aware assistant you have on desktop, wherever you are. (HTPR-3056)
Task Writer supports Properties during task creation — You can now set Tags, Task Size, and Priority directly in the Task Writer when creating tasks, bringing AI-generated tasks closer to ready without a follow-up edit. (HTPR-2969)
CLI: task move command — Move tasks between sections from the terminal with hypertask task move <ticket> --section <name>. No web UI needed for board housekeeping. (HTPR-3658)
CLI: First-run onboarding — New users running the Hypertask CLI for the first time now get an interactive onboarding guide to authenticate, explore commands, and get productive fast. (HTPR-3171)
MCP: due_date now supported on create and update — hypertask_create_task and hypertask_update_task now accept a due_date field (ISO 8601), letting agents set deadlines without needing the CLI or web UI. (HTPR-3646)
MCP: Inbox tools — Two new MCP tools — hypertask_inbox_list and hypertask_inbox_archive — let agents read and dismiss inbox notifications programmatically. Useful for building triage and notification-routing workflows. (HTPR-3625)
Deep link to create a task on a specific board — Append ?board=<board-id> to the task creation URL (e.g. /new?board=inne) to pre-select a destination board. Useful for bookmarks and integrations. (HTPR-3578)
Calendar keyboard navigation — Use a keyboard shortcut to jump forward and backward through calendar periods without reaching for the mouse. (HTPR-3517)
One-click IDE connect buttons on the MCP page — The MCP settings page now includes ready-to-use connect buttons for VS Code, Cursor, and other popular IDEs, making it easier to get your agent setup running in minutes. (HTPR-3546)

F2 to edit task titles on Kanban — Press F2 on a focused task card to edit its title inline, without opening the task detail panel. (HTPR-3657)
Kanban filter panel available in Calendar view — The same filter modal you use on the Kanban board is now available in Calendar view, so you can apply the same filters across both layouts. (HTPR-3611)
“Following” filter on Calendar view — Filter the Calendar to show only tasks you’re following, matching the filter already available on Kanban. (HTPR-3581)
Inbox page title shows account name — The browser tab for the Inbox now displays the relevant section or account name, making it easier to distinguish multiple Hypertask tabs. (HTPR-3620)
Left sidebar sort improvements — Projects and sections in the left sidebar now sort more predictably, with refinements to ordering logic based on user feedback. (HTPR-3580)

Bug Fixes

Fixed: Task owner no longer duplicated as follower — Updating a task no longer adds the task owner as a follower a second time, which was causing duplicate notifications. (HTPR-3641)
Fixed: PWA opens existing window instead of a new one — Clicking the PWA launcher when Hypertask is already open now focuses the existing window instead of opening a duplicate. (HTPR-2989)
Fixed: Mobile undo close button — Tapping × on the mobile undo prompt now dismisses it without triggering the undo action. (HTPR-3612)
Fixed: Calendar month view rendering — Several UX issues in the Calendar month view, including misaligned events and scroll position, have been corrected. (HTPR-3595)

Improvements

CLI & MCP: Subtask hierarchy exposed via parent_id — Task responses from both the CLI and MCP now include a parent_id field, making it straightforward for agents to walk parent/child relationships. The hypertask task tree command surfaces the same data as a rendered hierarchy. (HTPR-3103)
