# Task Management
|
|
|
|
As you use Cline, you'll accumulate many tasks over time. The task management system helps you organize, filter, search, and clean up your task history to keep your workspace efficient.
|
|
|
|
## Accessing Task History
|
|
|
|
You can access your task history by:
|
|
|
|
1. Clicking on the "History" button in the Cline sidebar
|
|
2. Using the command palette to search for "Cline: Show Task History"
|
|
|
|
## Task History Features
|
|
|
|
The task history view provides several powerful features:
|
|
|
|
### Searching and Filtering
|
|

|
- **Sort Options**: Sort tasks by:
|
|
- Newest (default)
|
|
- Oldest
|
|
- Most Expensive (highest API cost)
|
|
- Most Tokens (highest token usage)
|
|
- Most Relevant (when searching)
|
|
- **Favorites Filter**: Toggle to show only favorited tasks
|

Each task in the history view has several actions available:
|
|
|
|
- **Open**: Click on a task to reopen it in the Cline chat
|
|

|
|

|
|
|
|
## ⭐ Task Favorites
|
|
|
|
The favorites feature allows you to mark important tasks that you want to preserve and find quickly.
|
|
|
|
### How Favorites Work
|
|
|
|
- **Marking Favorites**: Click the star icon next to any task to toggle its favorite status
|
|
- **Protection**: Favorited tasks are protected from individual and bulk deletion operations (can be overridden)
|
|
- **Filtering**: Use the favorites filter to quickly access your important tasks
|
|
|
|
## Batch Operations
|
|
|
|
The task history view supports several batch operations:
|
|
|
|
- **Select Multiple**: Use the checkboxes to select multiple tasks
|
|
- **Select All/None**: Quickly select or deselect all tasks
|
|
- **Delete Selected**: Remove all selected tasks
|
|
- **Delete All**: Remove all tasks from history (favorites are preserved unless you choose to include them)
|
|
|
|
## Best Practices
|
|
|
|
1. **Favorite Important Tasks**: Mark reference tasks or frequently accessed conversations as favorites
|
|
2. **Regular Cleanup**: Periodically remove old or unused tasks to improve performance
|
|
