Surround the Ids from filenames with ] and you have links to go to the task. Write the result to a todo.txt and you've got a basic task overview.

I'm not sure if down the road the approach to leave tasks in your notes will do more harm than good - but if you pick up the convention to leave comments with the TODO keyword around, there's plenty of tools that can show you tasks. I bet there's some solution to scan "in the background" and cache the result, because scanning all files from disk every time you want to look at the agenda will probably take forever. I’m using a workaround with Drafts 5 at the moment – but there’s definitely room for Hmm in theory, yes! You'd have to set the variable org-agenda-files so that the Agenda scans all files in building the agenda. I would say about TaskPaper exactly what you said above about The Archive – the only problem I have with it is the missing iOS client (Taskmator doesn’t work for me, partly because it doesn’t support the same Saved Searches). I’ve tried to get going with it a few times, but always given up after about 1-2h of trying to understand how it all works and returned to TaskPaper because it seemed far more intuitive and less cluttered. The simplicity, power, and functionality of The Archive is such a refreshing contrast. It seems like SO many other apps are over-designed while also being unintuitive, clunky and limiting. Doing so has made me realise just how much I like the design of The Archive. I've spent an ironic amount of time over the last day looking at different organisation/to-do apps. Looks like I may have to dive in and try figure out Org mode.
