CLUSTER TASK-DECIDE-LIST · 9 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2025-08-18
random task pickers
This cluster consists of apps that randomly select or shuffle tasks from a user's to-do list to help decide what to work on next, reducing decision paralysis and adding variety. The dated history is too thin to read a shape from—only 4 dated entries exist before the index start, and 2 members have no source date, so the cluster's pre-index timeline is essentially undetermined. do-this.today leads on traction, followed by Improvement Roll and weekly-task-randomizer, all with low star counts.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 9 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
