Tasks page — the human-action queue across all your repos
For: all
Tier: free+
Time: ~4 min
Why you'd do this
Compliance work splits into two flavours: TECHNICAL ("upload an FMEA PDF", "link the data-quality test report") and PROCEDURAL ("fill the Art. 9 risk-management questionnaire", "sign the Declaration of Conformity"). The Findings page handles the technical side; the Tasks page handles the procedural side. Most teams route Tasks to compliance / legal staff while Findings go to engineers.
Before you start
- At least one repo with applicable Human Gate articles (typically any high-risk or limited-risk classified repo)
- Pro+ tier to actually FILL questionnaires (free / starter sees the task but the open-form button shows an upgrade prompt)
Step 1
Open /dashboard/tasks. The list shows every open Human Gate task across every repo, grouped by article. Each task row shows:
- Article + title (e.g. "Art. 9 — Risk Management System")
- Repo — clickable, links to per-repo Tasks tab
- Progress —
<filled> / <total> sectionswith progress bar - Last edited by — most recent author / date (Pro+ shows full history)
- Action — Open / Continue / Review (depending on state)

What you'll see: Task list grouped by article. Articles your repo's roles don't address are filtered out by default (e.g. a Provider-only repo won't see Importer Art. 23 tasks).
Step 2
From a repo overview, the Tasks tab shows only that repo's tasks. Same row format, no Repo column. Useful when one engineer is responsible for the compliance of one specific product.
URL anchors: ?expand=art9 opens the page with the Art. 9 task row pre-expanded — handy for sharing direct links to a specific questionnaire.

What you'll see: Per-repo task list with the Tasks tab highlighted in the repo navigation row.
Step 3
Each task carries a status pill describing where you are in the questionnaire flow:
- Not started (gray) — questionnaire opened 0 times
- In progress (amber) — at least one section saved, not all complete
- Pending review (blue) — all sections complete, awaiting designated reviewer sign-off (multi-person workflows, Pro+)
- Done (emerald) — all sections complete + signed off; the associated Art. X finding moves to COMPLIANT on the next scan
- Stale (red dot overlay) — Done but underlying scan/data has changed; needs re-review
Tasks remain on the page across re-scans — completion state is preserved in finding_responses storage, which the scanner reads rather than re-asking the same questions every run.
Step 4
Pro+ tier exposes the multi-author audit trail per task. Expanding a task row shows:
- Section-by-section progress with the user who completed each
- Comment thread per section (engineering / compliance back-and-forth without leaving the platform)
- Sign-off field with role-restricted signature (only designated reviewers can complete)
The audit trail is appended-only — edits are versioned, not overwritten. Regulators reading the exported PDF can see who answered what and when.
Step 5
Mark as not applicable (Pro+) — for tasks corresponding to obligations your repo profile rules out. Selecting a task and clicking "Mark NA" opens the same reason picker as on Findings ("role doesn't apply" / "derogation X" / etc.). The task leaves the active list and the underlying obligation moves to NA on the next scan.
Export task list (Pro+) — CSV / Markdown of current view for offline triage or insertion into a Jira / Linear board.
Reassign (Business+) — assign a task to a specific team member; they get notified and the task appears bolded in their Tasks page until completed.
What can go wrong
- Task progress shows "3/19 sections" but I'm sure I filled more — Sections track completion at SAVE time. If you filled fields but didn't click Save on the section, progress doesn't advance. Re-open the task — fields are preserved (autosave drafts) but section completion only counts after explicit Save. The page header shows "Unsaved changes" if drafts exist.
- A task shows "Done" but the related Art. X finding is still NC — Scanner reads completed questionnaires on the NEXT scan, not instantly. Re-run
cl_scan+cl_syncafter completing a task. If the finding is STILL NC after re-scan, open it — the scanner may have noted a specific section answer that doesn't satisfy the obligation (e.g. "residual risk treatment description too brief"). Update that section and re-sync. - I marked a task NA but it keeps re-appearing after every scan — NA on a task targets a specific obligation. If the underlying scan is generating NEW findings for the same article (e.g. you added new code that triggered a different obligation in the same article), the new finding shows as a new task. Open the expanded view to see the obligation id — if it's different from what you marked NA, it IS a different task.
