Manage all aspects of a task from the task list or from inside the task itself. This page covers creating, renaming, starring, moving, and deleting [Solve and Build tasks](/getting-started/task/overview).

## Create a task

You can start a task from three places: the **Home** screen, the **Tasks** page, or from inside a project.

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="From Home">
    Go to **Home**, type your prompt in the input, and press **Enter** or click the send button. Rocket detects whether this is a Solve or Build task from your description. You can also click **Solve** or **Build** in the input bar to set the type explicitly.

  </Tab>

  <Tab title="From the Tasks page">
    Go to **Tasks** in the sidebar and click the **Start new Task** card. This takes you to the Home screen input to describe your task.

  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Inside a project">
    Go to **Projects**, open a project, and type your prompt in the project's input. The task is automatically scoped to that project and benefits from its shared context.

## Task menu

Many task actions (rename, star, add to project, and delete) are available from the same **`...` menu**. You can open this menu from two places:

* **Tasks page or sidebar:** hover over a task and click the **`...`** that appears
* **Inside the task:** click the task name in the top-left to open the task dropdown, then select **Settings**, **Star**, or **Add to Project**

The sections below show both entry points for each action.

## Rename a task
