Managing Tasks
Track and manage your n8v tasks from creation to merged PR
Task Information
Each task displays: Task status, an automatically generated title based on your original prompt, when the task was created, repository and branch information, PR status (if applicable), CI status (if applicable), lines of code changed (if applicable), and the agent icon (for running tasks).
Task Status
Tasks display visual indicators on the left showing their current state.
| Icon | Status | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Unread | Task updated, but not been viewed yet | |
| Pending | Task is queued or waiting for agent environment | |
| Running | Task is actively being worked on | |
| Complete | Task completed successfully | |
| Error | Task encountered an error |
Filtering by Progress
Use the filter beside Tasks to switch between three focused views:
- Inbox — all unarchived tasks, including drafts and scheduled work
- Active / Finished — unread tasks (blue dot) and tasks still queued, running, or wrapping up
- Archived — tasks you have archived
Search, tags, and grouping continue to refine the selected view. On mobile, the selected progress view is retained in the page URL.
PR Status
Once a task completes successfully, an icon will appear to the right indicating its PR's state.
| Icon | Status | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Draft | PR created as draft default | |
| Open | PR is open and ready for review | |
| Merged | PR has been merged into the base branch | |
| Closed | PR was closed without merging |
CI Status
When a PR is open, you can monitor your continuous integration checks directly from n8v next to the PR status.
| Icon | Status | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Pending | CI checks are currently running | |
| Success | All CI checks have passed successfully | |
| Failure | One or more CI checks have failed |
