sort checklist

This action sorts a list of checkboxes based on their state. All done items will be moved to the end of the draft into the section titled with „## done

[Configuration]

no configuration needed

[Usage]

Use this action when you have a checklist open and don’t want to delete done items with the clean done items in list action but instead move them into a „## done“ section. You can use the Show List action to open your lists quickly.
