“My favorite new Mac app of the year” — John Gruber, Daring Fireball Taska (previously Sonar) is a native Mac app that offers a fast & lightweight alternative to managing tasks from the GitHub, GitLab, or Gitea/Forgejo-based web UI. Taska can do a lot of what the web UIs can do, but much faster and much easier! Taska is tightly integrated with your Mac through Spotlight, Shortcuts, Notification, and more. With our “no strings attached” free trial, Taska is free to use for the first 14 days with no subscriptions, sign-ups, or purchases of any kind required. An annual subscription plan, as well as a one-time purchase, are available after the free trial expires. Taska's native UI sits on top of official vendor API from GitHub, GitLab, or Gitea/Forgejo-based services like Codeberg, keeping your data completely secure and retaining 100% compatibility with other team members, whether they’re using Taska or not. POWERFUL EDITING UI • Enter task titles, assignees, and labels, all on one line • Closing a task is as simple ticking a checkbox • Edit multiple tasks quickly and intuitively • Multitask with separate windows for tasks and repos • Pin important tasks to the top for quick access • Full Markdown support including tables, checkboxes, block quotes, and more SECURITY • Taska uses the official API so your data remains private and secure • Access tokens are securely stored in your keychain COLLABORATION • Comment on tasks and mention other users • Features a dedicated Activity view for every GitHub repo • Get notifications when GitHub tasks are assigned and updated • Support for self-hosted local repositories via GitLab and Gitea/Forgejo • GitHub issue templates support PRIORITIES • Makes task priority a first class citizen by prominently displaying priorities alongside each task • Agile, Simple (low/high), and Fruit Co (P1-P4) priority systems are supported out of the box • Use your team’s existing priority labels, or create new ones SEARCH, SORT & FILTER • Create Smart Filters for quick access to custom filters • Smart Filters are conveniently stored in a sidebar and can be drag-copied to other repos • Search through 10s of thousands of tasks instantly • Filter based on open/close state or assignee • Sort by state, priority, date, or assignee • Find open and closed issues directly via Spotlight MILESTONES & LABELS • Full support for GitHub & GitLab milestones and labels • Create labels and add label colors • Create milestones and set due dates • Group tasks by milestone or label and hide groups as needed NATIVE MAC APP • Lightning fast • Dark mode • Keyboard shortcuts • Notifications • Full offline support • MCP server for coding agents is included Taska privacy policy and terms of service: https://taska.now/privacy/

Taska 2.3 adds file attachments, a Recently Updated view, and new ways to create tasks from other apps. NEW • Attach files: drop or paste images and videos into any description or comment, and they upload straight to GitHub or GitLab. A placeholder stands in the text while a file uploads. • A formatting toolbar in every Markdown editor: headings, bold, italic, quotes, code, links, and bulleted, numbered, and task lists. • Recently Updated: a new sidebar view (⌃⌘R) that shows the tasks updated in the last 7 days, newest first. • Create tasks from other apps: share selected text or a link to Taska from any app's Share menu, or choose Services › New Task in Taska. • Milestone Improvements: add a description to a milestone, and edit existing milestones in the same sheet you create them in. Milestone headers regain the + button to add a task right there, and gain a ⋯ menu (also on right-click) to edit, close, or open the milestone on the web. Hover over a header to see its description. IMPROVED • Repository windows reselect the task you last had selected. • The timeline shows the commit that closed an issue. • Copy commands preview what they copy, and there are new formats. A Terminal-safe version of the Fixed commit message is also available. • Smart filters: text conditions now offer “does not contain”, and dates offer “is in the last 7 days”. • ⌘↩ creates the task in the New Task window and posts the comment in the New Comment window, and both windows now support Undo. • “Create More” keeps the next task's labels, assignees, and milestone, and AI title suggestions stop as soon as you start typing your own. • Closing a window or quitting with untitled new tasks now offers to show them first, and unsaved tasks can be deleted with Task › Delete Task…. • Images in descriptions and comments are cached on disk, Quick Look opens reliably on double-click, and images in renamed private repositories load again. • The Activity view is now called Notifications (GitHub repositories). • The Dock menu can open your repositories. • Taska uses less memory with large repositories. • For coding agents using the Taska MCP: list_comments now includes commits that reference an issue, and tools reject unknown arguments and names instead of ignoring them.
