Hey @craigconstantine 👋🏽 There will be more resourceful members than me with respect to development.. but in general

- you can add a new sort column with a component. E.g. see the [Add Category Column](https://meta.discourse.org/t/add-category-column/103893) component.
- the values you need (topic-timer, destination-category) should be available from the database already. So you could access them with a component.

So I guess a blueprint approach could be to:

- use a standard [Shared drafts category](https://meta.discourse.org/t/shared-drafts-allow-staff-to-collaborate-on-posts-before-publishing/83493)
- have a component customize the topic list to be sortable by destination category and topic timer (that is, drop the calendar view and go with an agenda)
