Problem Statement

Prior to ~March 2026, recurring scheduled task runs in the Cowork sidebar displayed with the run date prefixed (e.g., "Apr 1 – Plan my day"). After recent updates (~2.1.75–2.1.85), all runs show the static task description only ("Plan my day") with no date. This makes it impossible to distinguish runs without clicking into each one.

Proposed Solution

Please restore date-prefixed naming, or support templated descriptions with dynamic values (e.g., {{run_date}} – Plan my day).

TL;DR

Restoring the date-prefixed naming for recurring scheduled task runs in the Cowork sidebar is likely the most straightforward fix to address the issue.

Guidance

  • Review the code changes introduced between versions 2.1.75 and 2.1.85 to identify the modification causing the static task description to be displayed without the run date.
  • Verify if the run date information is still available in the task data structure, which could be used to restore the date-prefixed naming.
  • Consider implementing templated descriptions with dynamic values, such as {{run_date}}, as a more flexible solution.
  • Test any proposed fixes with various task types and schedules to ensure the solution works consistently across different scenarios.

Example

No specific code example can be provided without more context about the codebase, but the fix might involve modifying a template or a function responsible for generating task descriptions.

Notes

The exact implementation details depend on the underlying code and technology stack used in the Cowork sidebar, which is not specified in the issue.

Recommendation

Apply a workaround by restoring the date-prefixed naming or implementing templated descriptions, as this approach directly addresses the reported issue and provides a clear improvement to the user experience.
