Recurring tasks all share an identical name. A "Monthly Report" task creates 12 indistinguishable tasks per year — impossible to tell apart in List view, Search, or Dashboards without opening each one.

Current workarounds (manual renaming, {{Current Date}} in automations, external tools like Make/Zapier) all have meaningful drawbacks.

Proposed solution:

Add dynamic date variables usable in task names on recurring tasks, templates, and automations:

{{month_name}} — e.g. "June"

{{month_name_minus_1}} — e.g. "May" (essential for reporting tasks that cover the prior month)

{{year}} — e.g. "2026"

{{quarter}} — Q1/Q2/Q3/Q4

{{week_number}} — ISO week

{{date_formatted}} — with custom format string

Resolved at task creation, baked into the name.

Use cases:

Agency client reports, finance month-end close, weekly stand-ups, QBRs — any recurring task where the period matters more than the creation date.

Why it matters:

Asana, Monday, and Notion either support this natively or via clean workarounds. The gap pushes ClickUp users to external automation tools for basic functionality.
