It would be very helpful to add comments directly to individual cells in ClickUp, similar to cell comments or notes in Excel/Google Sheets.
Right now, if a user wants to add context about a specific value, such as a Status field or another column value, the only option is to leave a general task comment in the Activity section. That context can easily get buried in the full comment thread and become hard to find later.
Requested behavior:
Allow users to attach a comment or note to a specific cell / field value
Show a visual indicator on the cell when a comment exists
Let users open that comment directly from the cell
Ideally support this in both List view and Table view
Especially useful for Status fields and custom field columns
Why this matters:
Keeps context tied to the exact value it refers to
Makes reviews and handoffs easier
Reduces the need to search through long task comment threads
Helps teams explain why a status or field value was changed without losing that detail later
Example use case:
A team member changes a task’s Status and wants to explain why, but that explanation should stay attached to that specific status value instead of getting lost in the broader task Activity comments.
