Lists, Tasks & Boards

Lists are the central place in Liza for organizing work — from a single task to the big picture.

Lists

A list groups related tasks together and comes with its own chat, files, and dates. Examples: "Backlog", "Sprint 42", "Onboarding".

Tasks (Items)

A task is a single entry in a list. It can have:

  • Assignment to one or more people
  • Status (open / in progress / done)
  • Priority and due date
  • A description, tags, subtasks, and its own chat history

Tasks can be nested (subtasks) and categorized with tags.

Boxes on a task

To the right of a task sits an info column with boxes – small areas you add via "+" in the header, rename, and remove again. Each task gets exactly the tools it needs:

BoxWhat for
SessionThis task's AI session: job queue, running plan, chapter history.
Todo listShared sub-tasks – persistent and visible to everyone.
Cloud DriveThe task's files (also where AI-generated files and images land).
PagesNotes and documents for this task.
BrowserCollected links.
ArtifactsArtifacts produced by the AI.
GitCommits, uncommitted changes and pull requests. The shared part (commits/PRs from GitHub) is visible everywhere, local changes only in the desktop app.
Local folderA folder on your machine – desktop only.
TerminalA real shell – desktop only.
ServerStart and stop this task's dev servers and read their logs – desktop only (see coding agents).

Boards & Cards

The same content can be displayed as a board: cards in columns (sections) — ideal for a Kanban-style overview. Move cards via drag and drop to change their status.

Views

Depending on your needs, you can switch between list, board, and timeline views. You can filter specifically for overdue tasks and tasks assigned to you.

Linking with chat

A task can be created directly from a message in team chat — so nothing gets lost in the conversation.
