Projects, sections, and parentless tasks can be tagged independently from each other to create the required functionality. If this tag is not defined, it will not activate this functionality. The result will be a clear, current and comprehensive list of next actions without the need for further thought.
See the example given at [running autodoist](#running-autodoist) on how to run this mode. If the label does not exist yet in your Todoist, a possibility is given to automatically create it. Todoist Premium is required in order to use labels and to make this functionality possible.

To give you more flexibility, multiple modes are provided:
1. Off
2. Checking main task regenerates all sub-tasks
3. Checking main task regenerates all sub-tasks only if all sub-tasks have been checked first
1. No regeneration
2. Checking the main task regenerates all sub-tasks
3. Checking the main task regenerates all sub-tasks only if all sub-tasks have been checked first
When this functionality is activated, it is possible to chose which mode is used as overall functionality for your Todoist. In addition you can define another mode by adding the labels `Regen_off`, `Regen_all`, or `Regen_all_if_completed` to your main task. These labels will automically be created for you, and overrule the overall functionality.
