We show task list and task prompt one under another. This is a decent use of the real estate of the screen.

What is a bit confusing is that the filter widgets are visually closer to the prompt than to the task list, while in fact they only work with the task list.

I recommend adding a visual separator: either by drawing a faint horizontal line (please see below for my poor attempt at mocking this up) or by adding some empty space between, or getting the filters closer to the table.
