v2.19.0 - Time tracking + project colors

v2.19.0 - Time tracking + project colors

June 2026

Added

• Time tracking (#77) - track how long you spend on tasks, Toggl-style.
  • A persistent tracking bar sits at the bottom-left on desktop, full-width on mobile. Type a task name and hit Start to quick-create an Inbox task and begin tracking immediately - or start a timer on any existing task from its row in the task list. The bar shows the running task title and a live H:MM:SS clock; one tap stops it.
  • A Toggl-style timeline at /time renders a vertical hour grid with day columns (day or week view). Each tracked interval is a project-colored block - click an empty slot to log an entry, click a block to edit or delete it. Running entries grow live off the 1 s tick.
  • Snap-to-5-min / exact granularity setting on the timeline page.
  • Inbox color picker on the timeline page - Inbox tasks have no project color, so you can assign one that persists in localStorage.
  • At most one timer runs at a time (server-enforced). Starting a new one auto-stops the previous.
• Project colors - each project can have a hex color set when creating or editing it. The color appears as a left border on timeline blocks and as a swatch in the sidebar/modal.
• MCP: 9 new tools bringing total to 29:
  • Time tracking (7): start_timer, stop_timer, get_active_timer, log_time, edit_time_entry, delete_time_entry, get_time_summary
  • Habits (2): get_habits (full dashboard - streak, done-today, weekly progress), undo_habit_checkin, get_habit_checkins
  • Comments (2): list_task_comments, delete_task_comment
  • Projects: create_project and rename_project now accept an optional color hex param

Notes

• New TimeEntries table (Tasks 1-to-many). Projects table gains a nullable Color column.
• ColorPickerButton component replaces the legacy inline ColorPicker.tsx - a swatch button that opens a floating popover; used in the sidebar, edit modal, and timeline settings. LabelColorButton is the label-specific equivalent.
• TimeTrackingContext (React context) owns the single running entry and a 1 s tick that only fires while a timer is active, so live elapsed seconds render across the bar, the task row timer control, and the timeline without a separate polling loop.
