Feature request
Make the scheduled-tasks list in the Claude Desktop left-hand panel filterable by where the task runs — specifically, a "Desktop tasks only" filter (and by extension, "Cloud tasks only" / "All").
Problem
I run a large number of cloud scheduled tasks that are set-and-forget automations. They dominate the left-hand panel's scheduled-tasks list, which makes the list clunky to use: the small number of desktop tasks I actually need to check on and interact with are buried among dozens of cloud entries I never need to open.
Proposed solution
- Add a filter control (dropdown, toggle, or segmented control) to the scheduled-tasks section of the left panel: All / Desktop / Cloud.
- Remember the last-selected filter across app restarts.
- Optionally, show a small badge/icon per row indicating where the task runs, so mixed views stay scannable.
Alternatives considered
- Collapsible groups (Desktop group / Cloud group) in the same panel would also solve it.
- Search within the panel helps but doesn't address the everyday "just show me my desktop tasks" case.
Context
- Claude Desktop (Cowork), heavy user of both local desktop scheduled tasks and cloud scheduled tasks.
- Related visibility issues that would pair well with this: #60667, #67992, #54524.
