Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and
what in fact did happen. You don't know how to make a good report? See

------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have a repeatedly-scheduled TODO with this entry for the schedule:
SCHEDULED: <2023-10-15 Sun .+1d -0d>

The TODO is marked with 'sometag'.

In the regular agenda view (C-a a) I narrow with /sometag.
Then S-I to start the clock.
Finally, t and C-c C-c to close today's action.

The result is that the agenda shows the current time (in this case 9:41)
instead of the correct 6 minutes. Note that the task's LOGBOOK entry
correctly shows 0:06 minutes.

I expected to see the usual 6 minutes for the task in the agenda view.
Today is the first time I noticed this anomaly, but perhaps it has been
happening previously?
Not sure if this is new as of today: [2023-10-14 Sat 09:47] (CDT time)

A sample task:
* TODO sometask with sometag :sometag:
SCHEDULED: <2023-10-15 Sun .+1d -0d>

May you please elaborate about "agenda shows the current time"?

Hey,
The problem no longer appears!  Excellent.  Not sure what fixed it.

In the last entry below, the "Clocked:" part of the log would have 
showed 3:47 (i.e. the current local CDT time) rather than the time to 
complete the task which is now correctly shown as 0:01 minutes.

Problem fixed ... but it would be nice to know it was not an accidental fix.

Thank you!  You can close it or investigate further at your discretion.

Do you mean that you used agenda clockcheck mode? I tried and I see no
problem there.

I am not sure what you mean by fixed. Did you do anything?

I am not able to reproduce the problem. Since you cannot either, I am
closing this bug.

Canceled.

No, no, not clock check mode.

- I created a TODO with a scheduled time that repeats.  When completed 
it remains alive to be scheduled the next day.

- I started the clock on that TODO task.

- Then completed the task with 't' in the Agenda view.

- The task's "clock time" shows in the log ... i.e. how much time I 
spent completing that task.


==>> Previously, a day or so ago, the current local time was recorded in 
the Agenda log rather than the "clock time" (i.e. rather than the time 
spent to complete the task).

==>> Now, the current "clock time" again is correctly recorded in the log.


I hope the screen captured images came across in the previous email?  
They should help explain.

Ok. Got it.

I looked into the code, and I do have a feeling that it is brittle
(agenda is a very old and convoluted code), but without a concrete
reproducer I wouldn't dare to touch it.

I indeed did not notice the attachments - they were not indicated in the
plain/text part of the email. They indeed did help to explain things.

A bit more clarity ...

  * If the task clock is activated on a TODO in the agenda,
  * and closed quickly enough that the elapsed time is 0:00,
  * then MOMENTARILY the agenda shows the CURRENT WALLCLOCK TIME.
  * The actual logbook entry shows the correct 0:00 elapsed task time.
  * And when the agenda is merely REFRESHED the wallclock time is
    replaced with the 0:00.


So there seems to be NO BUG.  It's just an odd transient behavior which 
I now noticed only because of tracking "time" on some small tasks.

Definitely not worth touching brittle code.  "It's just how it is."

And that's ok!  :-)

Thank you for your attention to this matter which now is clearly smaller 
than expected.
