Hi! I built this extension to solve a personal need for myself, and since it worked so well, I wanted to share it with the GNOME community so others could use and help improve it. While I used an AI coding assistant to help write the TypeScript code, I fully understand the core logic of the extension: it reads tasks from a local todo.txt file, parses them, renders them as interactive checkboxes on the desktop, and saves the widget's position when dragged. To address the guidelines, I have cleaned up the package, removed all helper/AI comments, and ensured that the compilation strips all comments completely. The codebase is now fully asynchronous and has 0 linter findings. If this does not suit the portal guidelines, I completely understand and will keep the extension available on GitHub instead. Thank you for your review and help!

1. Please add GitHub or GitLab url to the `metadata.json`: [EGO Review Guidelines: url](https://gjs.guide/extensions/review-guidelines/review-guidelines.html#metadata-json-must-be-well-formed) 2. Remove `icon.png`: [EGO Review Guidelines: unnecessary files](https://gjs.guide/extensions/review-guidelines/review-guidelines.html#don-t-include-unnecessary-files) 3. Please use `connectObject()` and `disconnectObject()` so it is easier to track for cleanup. You can also add `donations` to the `metadata.json`, so people can donate to you if they want: [Extension Anatomy: donations](https://gjs.guide/extensions/overview/anatomy.html#donations) If you need any help with your extension you can ask us on: - [GNOME Extensions Matrix Channel](https://matrix.to/#/#extensions:gnome.org) - IRC Bridge: irc://irc.gimpnet.org/shell-extensions
