+
+### Added
+- **Enhanced Task Note Field**: Added a dedicated `result` field to the task editor for documenting outcomes and countermeasures during both creation and editing.
+- **Improved Task Completion Workflow**: Marking a single task as done now automatically prompts for a completion note (countermeasure), ensuring better habit tracking and review.
+- **Advanced Project Selection**: 
+  - The project field in the editor now features an interactive selection list (press `Enter` on the project field) to choose from existing projects.
+  - All projects (including those without tasks) are now visible in the project switcher palette.
+  - Projects are now searchable via the main command palette (`ctrl+p`).
+
+### Fixed
+- **Project Switcher Logic**: Resolved an issue where newly created projects or projects without tasks were hidden from the selection list.
+- **Task Note Editing**: Fixed a UI bug in the result editor that prevented proper task identification in detail view mode.
