One-off tasks

Not everything repeats. One-off tasks are for things you do exactly once — renew the passport, register the car, replace a single broken blind. Pick Just once on the task form and choose a due date (it defaults to today, so a quick "remind me to do this" needs only a name).

A one-off behaves like any other task until it's done — it appears on the to-do list, the upcoming-tasks calendar, and the overdue/next-due sensors, and you can log the usual completion details (note, cost, who, photo). The difference is what happens after: instead of rescheduling, it goes dormant and drops out of every active surface, landing in a collapsed Completed section in the panel that keeps its completion record. Undoing the completion brings it right back to its due date.

Creating a one-off task — no cadence, just a due date

Completed one-off tasks collect in their own collapsed section

Tidy up automatically. If you'd rather not let finished one-offs pile up, set One-off retention (days) in the panel's Settings tab (or via the home_keeper.set_options service): a completed one-off is deleted that many days after it's done. The default — 0 — keeps them forever.
