+Feature: #107668 - Improve scheduler task group handling and display
+=====================================================================
+
+See :issue:`107668`
+
+Description
+===========
+
+The scheduler module has been enhanced with improved visual organization and
+quick editing capabilities for task groups. Task groups can now be assigned
+custom colors to improve visual distinction, and the group name has been made
+directly editable from the module view.
+
+A new :sql:`color` field has been added to the
+:sql:`tx_scheduler_task_group` table, allowing administrators to assign hex
+color values to each task group.
+
+UI improvements
+===============
+
+The scheduler module now provides several enhancements for task groups:
+
+**Color coding**
+    Task groups can be assigned a color that is displayed as a left border on
+    the group panel, similar to the page module label. This makes it easy to
+    visually distinguish between different groups at a glance.
+
+**Quick edit link**
+    The group name is now a clickable link that opens the group record for
+    editing, providing direct access to the group name, color, and description
+    fields without navigating through the list module.
+
+**Description display**
+    Group descriptions are now displayed in the scheduler module directly
+    below the group name, providing additional context about the purpose of
+    each group.
+
+**Bold group names**
+    Group names are now displayed in bold for better visual hierarchy and
+    readability in the scheduler module interface.
+
+Implementation details
+======================
+
+The color field is implemented as a TCA field of type :php:`'color'` with the
+following characteristics:
+
+*   Stores standard hex color values (for example :php:`#FF8700`).
+*   Includes a value picker with 11 predefined colors aligned with the TYPO3
+    brand palette.
+
+Predefined color options:
+
+*   TYPO3 Orange (#FF8700)
+*   White (#ffffff)
+*   Gray (#808080)
+*   Black (#000000)
+*   Blue (#2671d9)
+*   Purple (#5e4db2)
+*   Teal (#2da8d2)
+*   Green (#3cc38c)
+*   Magenta (#c6398f)
+*   Yellow (#ffbf00)
+*   Red (#d13a2e)
+
+These options can be customized by manipulating the
+:php:`$GLOBALS['TCA']['tx_scheduler_task_group']['columns']['color']['config']['valuePicker']['items']`
+array in your TCA overrides file.
+
+..  code-block:: php
+    :caption: Add a custom color option in a TCA override file
+
+    $GLOBALS['TCA']['tx_scheduler_task_group']['columns']['color']['config']['valuePicker']['items'][] = [
+        'label' => 'My Color',
+        'value' => '#ABCDEF',
+    ];
+
+Impact
+======
+
+These enhancements improve the usability of the scheduler module,
+particularly for installations with many task groups. The improvements allow
+administrators to:
+
+*   Quickly identify related task groups through visual color coding.
+*   Edit group properties directly from the scheduler module.
+*   Organize tasks by category, priority, or purpose.
+*   See group descriptions without opening the group record.
+*   Improve visual navigation in large scheduler configurations.
+
+The feature is fully backward compatible. Existing task groups without colors
+continue to work as before, displaying without a colored border.
