I love the plugin but wondering a bit in terms of workflow efficiency.

When I work on my tasks I usually do my work and then mark the completed tasks as DONE at some point. At this state I usually still want to keep them in the list until I get full confirmation which then clutters my list a bit and I am looking for a way to somehow change the state of all tasks with a certain state. ie. "archive all done tasks" or something like this.

This feels fairly common to me but I'm wondering if I'm just generally approaching this wrong and would be interested to hear what the intended workflow would be or how I could achieve alterations for a group of tasks by state or tag?

Do you mean all done tasks in the whole buffer or only the ones under the current heading?

Yes, I usually would do a task review a few times a day and update tasks that are moving through the pipe so it would be great after i do my review to just archive all the done tasks for example.

If the workflow described here would work in this port, do you think it would suit your needs? It actually sounds like something that in the future could be done with the API as well. Can't find anything in Emacs orgmode that does exactly what you describe.

I tried this but can't find a way to filter by status or show all. It's either showing TODO or lets me filter by tags only
