What you're missing
Pieces OS connected
Work session - 10:42 AM
Pieces remembers the shape of your work. missingpieces gives that memory a tiny, practical doorway: the next steps you may have missed.
Built around Pieces OS
A read-only view of your recent work.
Groups by session
Follow-ups stay tied to the work session they came from, so scanning feels natural.
Stays local and quiet
No task database, no push back to Pieces, and no background polling.
Menu bar first
Glance, copy, mark done.
The app is meant for the moment between thoughts. Click a row to expand it, double-click to copy, or mark it done locally when it is no longer useful.
Refresh when you open the popover, only if you want.
Use a visible cap so the list stays compact.
Restore marked-done items from Settings.
Private by habit
Designed to sit on top of Pieces, not replace it.
