To-dos

Shrike has a small, local to-do list built into the sidebar — and the fast way to fill it is straight from your mail.

Thread → to-do in one key

With a thread open or selected, press t. Shrike runs its on-device AI over the conversation, extracts the likely action and any due date, and opens the to-do editor pre-filled for you to confirm or tweak. One key, one glance, done — the thread becomes a task without you retyping anything.

Because the model runs locally, the contents of the thread never leave your Mac.

Managing the list

Jump to the list with g y. It’s keyboard-driven like everything else:

Key	Action
j / k	Move selection
x / Space	Toggle done
Enter	Edit selected to-do
c	New (blank) to-do
# / Delete	Delete selected to-do

Local and yours

The to-do list lives in Shrike’s local SQLite store alongside your cached mail. It isn’t synced to a third-party task service — it’s a fast scratchpad for “things this inbox just asked me to do.”
