### Key Changes in the Proposed Design

1

### Circular Checkboxes

Replace status badges with circular checkboxes on the left. Border color reflects status (orange=running, green=done, gray=manual). Click to toggle done.

2

### Inline "Add a task" Input

Dashed border text field pinned at the bottom of the task list. Always visible. Enter to create, Escape to cancel.

3

### List Name as Tasks Header

Replace generic "Tasks" header with the selected list name in larger text. Matches To Do's pattern.

4

### Sidebar Polish

Colored dots per list, subtle highlight on selected, "+ New List" link at bottom instead of +/E/- buttons.

5

### Remove Button Toolbars

Eliminate the bottom button bars from both panes. All actions via context menu, keyboard shortcuts, or inline controls.

6

### Completed Task Styling

Done tasks get strikethrough text, reduced opacity, green checkmark. Keeps them visible but visually subordinate.

This is multi-select — pick all the changes you'd like to include. I recommend all 6.
