How to do a count of tasks [with certain tags]?

[KierenB]

I have tasks scattered throughout my vault. All tasks have tags.

I'd love to be able to show a summary of tasks with different tags. There are two specific use cases:

1. What is the count of all tasks with the tag '#me'?
2. What is the count of all tasks labelled with both '#me' and '#house'?

I'm really just thinking about having a crude way to see how "full" different buckets are, so I can then go in and do more detailed analysis if necessary.

Thanks!

Hello @KierenB .

If you want to see only the count of tasks, (not the tasks themselves) there's no way using only Tasks' built-in capabilities. (There may be a way to make the listed tasks disappear using custom CSS -- but I can't help you with that.)

But if you want to see a list of the items that satisfy all filters in your query, followed by a count -- that's easy!

Your first example (tasks tagged #me)

```tasks
description includes #me
```

Your second example (tasks tagged #me and tagged #house)

```tasks
description includes #me
description includes #house
```

The second query works because Tasks' queries return only items that satisfy all filters.
