Review Overdue Tasks

Find Google Tasks that are past due and need attention.

When to Use

Use this workflow when the user wants to review their task lists for overdue items, catch up on missed deadlines, or prioritize what to work on next.

Workflow

1. List all task lists

gws tasks tasklists list --format table

2. Check tasks in each list

For each task list (or the one the user specifies):

gws tasks tasks list \
  --params '{"tasklist": "TASKLIST_ID", "showCompleted": false}' --format table

3. Identify overdue items

Review the due dates and flag tasks that are past due. Present them to the user sorted by how overdue they are.

4. Help prioritize

Suggest which tasks to tackle first based on due date and any notes.

Tips

• "showCompleted": false filters out done tasks
• Tasks without a due date won't show as overdue — but may still need attention
• Offer to mark tasks as complete with gws tasks tasks patch after the user finishes them
