Chronoboard

Chronoboard is an Obsidian community plugin for visual, note-native time tracking.

It turns Markdown notes into draggable timeboard entries across day, week, and month views while writing all data back into frontmatter. It works well with TaskNotes-style task notes, but it is not limited to Jira workflows or any specific vault structure.

Features

  • Day, week, month, and statistics views
  • Click and drag time entry creation
  • Resize and move time blocks directly on the board
  • Right-click actions for editing, recoloring, opening notes, and removing blocks
  • Scoped totals for day, week, and month
  • Support for always-included static notes such as meetings
  • Frontmatter-based data with no separate database

How it works

Chronoboard reads notes from a configured folder, filters them using a metadata property, and lets you place time visually on a board. Time entries are written back into each note's YAML frontmatter, so your data stays portable and queryable.

Frontmatter

Chronoboard reads and writes these properties when present:

title: "Example Task"
Status: "In Progress"
active: true
timeboardColor: "#7c5cff"
timeboardSubtitle: "Project subtitle"
timeEntries:
  - startTime: "2026-06-12T09:00:00"
    endTime: "2026-06-12T11:00:00"
    label: "Worked on API review"

timeEntries is the only required structure for tracking time. Everything else is configurable or optional.

Settings

  • Folder: source folder for notes that appear in the add-task picker
  • Metadata property: property used to filter notes out of the picker
  • Excluded values: values that hide notes from the picker
  • Always include notes: static notes that always appear in the task pool
  • Visible start hour and Visible end hour
  • Hide weekends in week view
  • Highlight color
  • Force dark text on colored cards
