Yes each task lives in the appropriate file and subtree. It is only possible to clock tasks. I clock in tasks both from the agenda and directly from inside org files. Finding the thing to clock in is what I use the agenda for -- I find a task with an agenda view (limited by tags) and clock in the task directly with I in the agenda view. > Or do you have some jiggery pokery to let clocking and clock tables be > sensitive to TAGs? I mostly use R and C-u R in the agenda for clock reports. The C-u R version limits the displayed clock report based on your current agenda tags filter. Dynamic clock reports can also be limited by tags but I am not currently using this feature. I use persistent tags filters so when I set a tag filter to HOME it stays that way until I change it. This lets me look at the agenda for this week limited to HOME tasks, and also TODO and NEXT tasks for only tasks with the HOME tag. > Overall it looks like you use file-and-level-of-subheading to categorize > things > according to general area (clientX, clientY, or accounting, research, > and so on), and then you use TAGs in addition to orthogonally categorize > things according to some aspect of your workflow (it's a phone call, it > has GTD context @wibble, it needs refiled, and so on). Is that remotely > accurate? Yes pretty much. I tend to group project related things into a file and give it a #+FILETAGS: entry so everything in that file gets some tag. Then I can limit my agenda view to just include or just exclude those things depending on my current work context. Inside a file I'll also have tagged entries for PHONE, NOTE, CANCELLED, FLAGGED, @somewhere, etc so I can further refine the displayed tasks in my agenda view.
