Spatial Task Graph

Spatial Task Graph transforms your linear markdown tasks into a dynamic, interactive infinite canvas. Visualize dependencies, manage workflows with a Kanban-style sidebar, and organize your thoughts spatially—all with a premium Apple-style aesthetic.

✨ Key Features

1. Smart Layout & Organization

Automatically organize your messy graph with a single click. The intelligent layout algorithm centers parent nodes and sinks completed, isolated tasks to the bottom to keep your view clean.

Smart Layout

2. Intuitive Graph Interactions

Manage your tasks spatially with fluid mouse gestures.

  • Connect & Edit: Drag to connect tasks. Right-click connections to delete them. Connect and Delete
  • Text Notes: Right-click on the canvas to add sticky notes for context or headers. Add Text Notes
  • Batch Move: Hold Left Click to box-select multiple nodes and move them as a group.

3. Seamless Creation Flow

Don't break your flow. Create new tasks directly from the canvas.

  • Drag-to-Create: Drag a connection line to an empty space to instantly open the creation modal. The new task is automatically appended to the parent file and linked.
