Health & Blockers

Monitor task health across your entire workspace. This view identifies problematic tasks that need attention: blocked work, unassigned tasks, stale items, and aging tasks.

KPI Stats Bar

Six metric cards display across the top:

Risk Score

Overall workspace health score displayed as "X/100". Lower scores are better.

  • Green: Healthy (0-20)
  • Yellow: Warning (21-50)
  • Red: Critical (51+)

Blocked

Count of tasks marked as blocked. Red indicator when greater than zero.

Unassigned

Count of tasks without any assignee. Yellow indicator when greater than zero.

Stale

Count of tasks in progress but with no recent activity. Yellow indicator when greater than zero.

Aging

Count of tasks open for 30+ days. Yellow indicator when greater than zero.

Focus Today

Count of priority tasks that should be addressed today. Blue indicator.

Task Tables

Four tables display different categories of problematic tasks:

Blocked Tasks Table

Tasks that are explicitly blocked:

  • Task: Code and title (click to open task details)
  • Status: Shows "Blocked" badge in red
  • Days: How long the task has been blocked

The header turns red when blocked tasks exist.

Unassigned Tasks Table

Tasks without any team member assigned:

  • Task: Code and title
  • Priority: Priority level with color coding (Urgent=red, High=yellow, Medium=blue, Low=green)
  • Age: How long the task has been open

The header turns yellow when unassigned tasks exist.

Stale In Progress Table

Tasks that are in progress but have no recent activity:

  • Task: Code and title
  • Workflow: Current workflow state with color
  • No Activity: Days since last update

Stale tasks may indicate blocked work or forgotten items.

Aging Tasks (30+ Days) Table

Tasks that have been open for more than 30 days:

  • Task: Code and title
  • Assignee: Avatar(s) of assigned team members
  • Age: Total days the task has been open

Long-lived tasks may need to be broken down, reprioritized, or closed.

Focus Today Section

When high-priority tasks exist that should be addressed today, this section appears at the bottom:

  • Task: Code and title
  • Workflow: Current state
  • Effort: Story points if set
  • Flags: Blocker (!) or Bug indicators

All Clear State

When no problematic tasks exist, the page displays:

  • Green checkmark icon
  • "All Systems Healthy" message
  • "No critical risks detected" subtitle

This indicates your workspace has no blocked, unassigned, stale, or aging tasks requiring attention.

Click any task row in any table to open the task detail drawer. From there you can:

  • View full task details
  • Unblock the task
  • Assign team members
  • Update status or add comments

Real-Time Updates

The view automatically refreshes when:

  • Tasks are created, updated, or deleted
  • You switch workspaces
  • You manually click the refresh button
