To-dos and issues
Issues get solved, not repeated.
Every to-do and issue carries an owner and a date from one week to the next. Unfinished work stays visible until it is done, and issues stay on the list until they are solved.
Sample company: Harborline. Names are the Worker cast.

What it does
Small rules that keep work moving.
One name on every item
A to-do with two owners has none. Each item has one person who answers for it.
Due dates that carry
Unfinished to-dos come back next week with a counter, so nothing slips quietly.
Problems stay visible
An issue stays on the list with its owner until the team solves it.
AI workers
It suggests. You decide.
When a number stays red, an AI worker suggests putting it on the issues list. The owner approves, edits or dismisses it.
Try it: the card below works.
Questions
Asked and answered.
What is the difference between a to-do and an issue?
A to-do is a task with an owner and a date, usually due within a week. An issue is a problem or decision the team needs to discuss and solve.
What happens to to-dos that are not done?
They carry over to the next week with their owner, so they stay visible until they are done.
