Preflight Checklist

  • I have searched existing requests and this feature hasn't been requested yet
  • This is a single feature request (not multiple features)

Problem Statement

When I click a scheduled task from the sidebar that has an active running session, it opens the task detail/history page instead of the running session. I have to click again on the specific history entry to actually open it. This adds unnecessary friction.

Proposed Solution

If a scheduled task has an Active session, clicking the task name in the sidebar should navigate directly to that active session — skipping the detail/history page entirely.

Alternative Solutions

Currently I work around this by scrolling through the session list in the sidebar to find the running session manually, which is harder to locate than the scheduled task entry.

Priority

Low - Nice to have

Feature Category

Other

Use Case Example

  1. I create a manual scheduled task (e.g., "Hush tinnitus session")
  2. I click "Run now" to start it
  3. I switch to another session to do other work
  4. When I want to return to the running task, I click it in the sidebar under "Scheduled"
  5. It opens the task detail page showing History — not the session
  6. I have to click the "Today at 8:13" entry to finally get into the running session
  7. Expected: step 4 should take me directly to step 6

TL;DR

Modify the sidebar click handler to navigate directly to the active session when a scheduled task with an active running session is clicked.

Guidance

  • Identify the current click handler function for scheduled tasks in the sidebar and modify it to check for an active running session.
  • If an active session exists, update the navigation logic to directly open the active session instead of the task detail/history page.
  • Consider adding a conditional statement to handle cases where there is no active session, ensuring the current behavior remains intact for those scenarios.
  • Review the application's routing and navigation configuration to ensure it supports the proposed direct navigation to active sessions.

Example

// Pseudo-code example, actual implementation may vary
if (scheduledTask.hasActiveSession) {
  navigateToActiveSession(scheduledTask.activeSessionId);
} else {
  navigateToTaskDetailPage(scheduledTask.id);
}

Notes

The exact implementation details may depend on the application's framework, routing mechanism, and existing code structure. This guidance assumes a typical web application architecture.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Modify the click handler as described, since this is a low-priority feature request and the workaround provides a direct solution to the user's issue.
