Automated LiquidPlanner Overdue Task Chasing
Every morning, WebRun opens LiquidPlanner, finds tasks whose predicted finish date has already passed while still open, posts a Slack reminder to each task's owner, and sends the project lead a Telegram summary of the most overdue, priority-ranked tasks.
How do I chase LiquidPlanner tasks that have fallen behind schedule?
WebRun checks LiquidPlanner every morning for tasks whose predicted finish date has passed while still open. It posts a Slack reminder to each task's owner naming how many days it has slipped, then sends the project lead a Telegram summary of the most overdue, priority-ranked tasks, so nothing drifts quietly behind schedule.
- Slipped tasks get an owner reminder the same morning they fall behind
- The project lead sees a ranked summary instead of digging through the schedule
- Nothing overdue goes unnoticed until the next status meeting

Questions, answered
Does it change any task's schedule or estimate?
No. It only reads each task's predicted finish date and reports what has slipped. Updating estimates is left to the owner.
Will it message the whole team every time?
No. Each reminder goes to the specific task's owner, and the lead gets one combined summary instead of a flood of pings.
How does it define an overdue task?
A task whose LiquidPlanner predicted finish date has already passed while the task is still open, not a fixed due date.
