 ### 1.2 Structure
 
-- Task files consist entirely of markdown checklist items (`- [ ] …` / `- [x] …`).
+- Task files consist of markdown checklist items (`- [ ] …` / `- [x] …`) and optional header content.
+- Any non-checklist lines **before the first checklist item** are treated as **header text**: they are not parsed as tasks, not shown in the UI, and are preserved verbatim when the file is written back.
 - Any non-checklist lines immediately following a checklist item are treated as **notes** for that item.
+- Notes are separated from their parent task in the file by a blank line.
 - The ordering of checklist items in the file reflects the display order in the UI.
 - Completed items remain in the file until the user marks them as done, at which point they are moved to the current Daily Note (see §5).
 
 ### 1.3 Inbox File
 
-- One task file is designated as the **Inbox** — the default destination for new tasks.
+- One task file is designated as the **Inbox** — the default destination when opened via the command palette.
 - The Inbox file path is configured in plugin settings.

-- Clicking the **text** of a task opens an editor modal or inline panel.
+- Clicking the **text** of a task opens an editor modal.
 - The editor provides:
-  - A single **multiline text area** containing the task text on the first line, followed by the notes. The first line is the task title; any subsequent lines are notes. The user edits both in one continuous field.
+  - A single **multiline text area** with the task title on the first line, a blank line, then the notes. The blank line separator is always present when notes exist; if the user removes it or writes notes without it, a blank line is inserted automatically on save.
   - A **file selector** (dropdown or fuzzy-search picker) to move the task to a different task file. Selecting a different file removes the task from the current file and appends it to the bottom of the selected file.
+  - A **Delete** button that, after a confirmation prompt, permanently removes the task from the file.
 - Changes are saved back to the markdown file on confirm/close.
