Changelog

All notable changes to GDT are documented here.

v0.2.0-beta.2 Beta

2026-02-03

✨ Highlights

Recurring Tasks — Create tasks that repeat automatically:

• Daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, and weekday patterns
• Natural language: "每周一提交周报" or "daily standup at 9am"
• TaskWarrior native recurrence rules for reliability

Natural Date Understanding — Due dates in your words:

• "明天" / "tomorrow" → due tomorrow
• "下周一" / "next Monday" → due next Monday
• "月底" / "end of month" → due end of month
• "周末前" / "end of week" → due Friday

Smarter Task Creation — Implicit intent understanding:

• "明天要交的作业" → Creates task due tomorrow
• "下周一的团队会议" → Creates task for next Monday
• No need to explicitly say "create task" — GDT understands context

🧪 Testing

• LLM Eval Framework: 90.7% overall score (+9.7% improvement)
• 66 new eval cases: Task decomposition (35), recurring dates (16), relative dates (15)
• 100% relative date accuracy (improved from 55%)
• 93.8% recurring task accuracy (improved from 49.1%)

🛠️ Improvements

• Error messages standardized to English for consistency
• Enhanced prompt engineering for date and recurrence patterns
• Better implicit task creation from conversational context
