## Your workspace, in one place

Plan Your Work brings lists, tasks, and calendar events into one workspace.
Start with a local list, or connect a source that already holds your work.

## Create your first task

1. [Sign in](/user/sign_in) to your account.
2. Open **Inbox** in the sidebar.
3. Select **Add task**, or press **N**.
4. Enter a task name.
5. Add a due date or notes as needed, then save.

Inbox holds tasks that do not yet belong to a list. You have one Inbox. It sits at the top of the sidebar and stays the same in every area.
Move a selected task with **M**, or use the command palette.

## Make a home for your work

Use the **+** beside Lists to create a list.
Lists can contain tasks and nested lists.
Folders help you organize related lists.

If you want separate personal and work views, enable **Areas** in Settings.
Assign an area to a list, then use the area icons above the sidebar.
Read [Lists and areas](projects.md) for inheritance and linking rules.

## Choose what needs attention

| View | What you will find |
| --- | --- |
| Inbox | Tasks waiting for a list. One Inbox, the same in every area. |
| All tasks | Active tasks across your lists and sources. |
| Today | Tasks due today and overdue tasks. |
| Upcoming | Future tasks, grouped by date. |
| Completed | Tasks that you have finished, including expired calendar events. |

**Ready**, **Later**, and **All** refine task lists without changing the tasks themselves.
Read [Tasks and dates](tasks.md) to control when future work appears.

## Bring in your calendar

Open **Settings → Connected sources** to connect Google Calendar.
You can connect more than one Google account and select calendars to import.
Meetings appear alongside tasks and complete automatically after their end time.

Read [Calendars and connections](calendars.md) before you combine sources or filter imported events.

## Find your way quickly

Press **⌘K** on Mac or **Ctrl+K** on other platforms to open the command palette.
Search for a list name or an action, then press **Enter**.
Press **?** outside a text field to see the keyboard shortcuts.

If you use an AI agent, [connect it through MCP](mcp.md) to work with the same lists and tasks.
