Rename a blueprint or a task without breaking a link

0.7.0 · 2026-09-22

Blueprints and tasks get generated ids, so two can share a title and a rename strands nothing, and a task now reads and edits like a blueprint.

New

  • Generated ids

    A new blueprint gets an id such as B-1AC3 instead of one taken from its title. The file is still named for the title, --id still sets one by hand, and existing ids stay. eidos reid →

  • Move a root onto generated ids

    eidos reid --all gives every blueprint a generated id, and every comment thread, canvas node, task, and asset link that names an old one follows.

  • Tasks have ids

    Each task gets a T- id that every eidos backlog command takes, so dependencies and parents survive a rename. eidos backlog ids gives ids to the tasks a root already has. Backlog →

  • Filter by your own properties

    Switch Filter on for a Backlog property and it becomes a dropdown over the board and the tables.

Improved

  • A task reads like a blueprint

    It opens in the blueprint reader's frame, and New task asks for a type and a title before it makes the file.

  • Pages load in their own shape

    Every table and view draws a skeleton of what is coming while it waits, instead of a blank.

Changed

  • Two settings moved

    The on-save rules are on the Linter's page, and the check's switches are on the Health Check page.

Fixed

  • A view that cannot read says so

    A failed read shows its error instead of an empty view.
