I'm transitioning from a web-based to-do list, and one thing I rely on is
viewing recently CREATED or CLOSED tasks, e.g. within the last 2 days. My
hope is to recreate this with a custom agenda view, but I haven't been able
to find the correct commands/filters. Keeping in mind I'm new to
Emacs/Lisp/OrgMode, here's what I've tried so far (for just the CLOSED
example):
This doesn't work because tags-todo excludes 'DONE' status tasks:
(add-to-list 'org-agenda-custom-commands
'("J" "Completed Recently" tags-todo "CLOSED>=\"<-2d>\""))
This doesn't work because the org-agenda-tag-filter-preset only works for
tags:
(add-to-list 'org-agenda-custom-commands
'("J" "Completed Recently" todo "DONE"
((org-agenda-tag-filter-preset '("+CLOSED>=\"<-2d>\"")))))
Regarding the desired CREATED agenda view, I use a script to add a CREATED
timestamp as property to each task (see:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12262220/add-created-date-property-to-todos-in-org-mode
), so a task will look something like this:
TODO New task for today
:PROPERTIES:
:CREATED: [2015-04-13 Mon 17:57]
:END:
There is no agenda filtering preset options for Properties (only
tags/category/regexp), which is the only way I could think of to do the
necessary date comparisons (e.g. <-2d>).
The task seems simple, so I'm hopeful I'm overlooking some way of
accomplishing it.

I think the simplest approach would be to write a predicate and use it
with `org-agenda-skip-function'. I do this in my org-review package, see
https://github.com/brabalan/org-review/blob/master/org-review.el#L230
for an example of a function to use, and
https://github.com/brabalan/org-review/blob/master/org-review.el#L153
for the predicate it relies on (this also shows how to get properties
values and to time comparison).
Best,
Alan

Use `tags' instead of `tags-todo':
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(add-to-list 'org-agenda-custom-commands
'("J" "Completed Recently"
((tags "CLOSED>=\"<-2d>\""))) t)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Best regards,
Seb
