Inline and Chat Item Tracking

Tracking Items from the Agent

In the Agent chat box, you can use a /track command to track an item. The Agent can insert the tracked item(s) into the document in view, another document, or into your master tracking document

Inline Item Tracking

Nimbalyst supports inline item tracking using special syntax within plan documents and any markdown file. Many types of inline trackers are currently supported such as:

• #task[...] - Action items and work to be done

• #bug[...] - Defects or issues to fix

• #idea[...] - Future enhancements or explorations

• #decision[...] - Decision that has been made

Add a new tracked item

You can specify a new

• Inline in a markdown document by typing # without a space

  • 
• By using the /track command in a chat and specifying the item

• In the Tracker panel but clicking the +New button

Sample Item Structure

Each tracking item should include:

---
trackingStatus:
  itemId: [type]-[unique-id]        # e.g., bug-001, task-042, idea-015
  title: [Short Description]
  type: [bug|task|idea]
  status: [status]                   # See status values below
  priority: [priority]               # low | medium | high | critical
  assignee: [username]               # Person responsible
  tags:                              # Relevant tags
    - [tag1]
    - [tag2]
  created: "YYYY-MM-DD"
  updated: "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.sssZ"
  resolvedDate: "YYYY-MM-DD"         # When resolved (optional)

Storage of Tracked Items

Tracked Items are stored either:

• In a particular document that is relevant (for instance bugs or ideas or decisions in the plan document for that feature)

• Or in a general tracker markdown document which is located under nimbalyst-local/tracker in your project

  
• That tracker document is created by the / command that calls it and then updated by that command
