Everything, in one list
The board is good for a stage of work. It is bad for a question. When you want to know something specific, come here instead: every work item on the job, in one flat list.
Searching by name
If you know roughly what it is called, type it. Titles and reference numbers both work, so TWIN dash twelve finds it just as well as the word joinery.
The list narrows as you type, and the count at the top tells you how many are left.
Clearing the box brings everything back.
Asking a question instead
More often you do not know the name — you know the shape of the question. Everything Tarek is carrying, for instance.
That is a foreman’s Monday morning in two clicks, and it is the same question a manager asks about every person on the job.
Filters stack. Add a state, and now you are asking something sharper: what is Tarek carrying that has not been started yet. That is the list worth taking to a site meeting.
Clear them and the whole job comes back.
Saving the question
And when a question is one you ask every week, save it. A saved filter is a question you never have to build again — open it, and it has already run.
The habit
The habit is to stop scrolling. If you have scrolled a list twice looking for the same thing, you had a question, not a browsing problem. Build the filter, save it, and give it a name your colleagues would understand.
