feat(task-repeat): RFC 5545 RRULE recurring schedules — EPIC · Phase 1/13 (Closes #4020) (#7948)
* feat(task-repeat): add cron / natural-language recurring schedules

Add a CRON repeat cycle so a single recurring task can express schedules
the day/week/month/year cycles cannot (e.g. every Saturday, March through
November). The cron expression drives occurrence generation; all other
schedule fields are ignored for CRON cfgs.

- Occurrence engine: getNewestPossibleCronDueDate / getNextCronOccurrence in
  cron-occurrence.util.ts (cron-parser), wired into the existing
  getNewestPossibleDueDate / getNextRepeatOccurrence dispatchers. Recurrence
  stays day-granular: sub-daily crons create at most one task per day.
- English to cron via the crono-eng WASM module (src/assets/crono-eng.wasm,
  loaded lazily), with a builtin regex parser as fallback until/if the module
  is unavailable. naturalLanguageToCron() also passes raw cron through.
- Cron to english live preview under the input via cronstrue; the field shows
  the interpreted cron + humanized reading as the user types and warns when an
  expression is sub-daily.
- Invalid / unrecognized input shows an error snack and blocks save.
- Add-task bar: @+<cron-or-phrase> short syntax attaches a CRON repeat cfg.
- tools/build-crono-wasm.js regenerates the WASM asset from the sibling
  crono-eng Zig project (committed asset is the source of truth for builds).

* fix(task-repeat): cron edge cases, clearer warnings, and corpus tests

Hardening + UX pass on the cron repeat cycle, driven by verifying the full
crono-eng corpus (415 phrases) end to end.

Fixes
- Silent never-fires: crono-eng can translate phrases (a specific year, "nearest
  weekday"/W, "n-to-last day"/L-n, biweekly #-lists) into Quartz forms the
  recurrence engine (cron-parser) cannot run. These passed UI validation yet a
  task would never be created. naturalLanguageToCron now gates its output on
  cron-parser, so such input is rejected at the field instead.
- Off-by-one for midnight crons: cron-parser's next() is exclusive of an
  exact-boundary currentDate, so getNextCronOccurrence skipped the first
  eligible day for 00:00 schedules (e.g. first occurrence landed a day late).
  Seed the search one ms before the lower-bound day so a midnight fire stays
  eligible; now matches the non-cron daily convention.

UX
- Live preview shows the interpreted cron + plain-English reading below the
  field, and warns when the time of day is ignored (day-granular engine) or the
  schedule is sub-daily ("runs at most once per day").
- Friendlier validation/snack message with examples instead of terse jargon.

Tests
- tools/test-crono-wasm.js (npm run test:crono): corpus-driven harness asserting
  the committed WASM matches all 415 corpus crons, and that cron-parser +
  cronstrue accept them — classifying the 27 known engine-unsupported forms so
  it stays a regression guard.
- cron-occurrence.util.spec.ts: occurrence engine across daily/weekly/monthly/
  month-range/sub-daily, varied times, start-date and last-creation gating.
- parse-natural-cron.util.spec.ts: raw passthrough, phrase recognition, null
  cases, loader resilience.
- task-repeat-cfg-form.cron.spec.ts: field validator + live-preview/time-warning.

* fix(task-repeat): live cron preview + @+ title strip; add E2E

Fixes found by adding end-to-end coverage of the cron feature.

- Live preview did not render: Formly's mat-hint does not reflect a dynamic
  expressionProperties.description, so the interpreted-cron/English preview never
  updated as the user typed. Move it into the dialog template, driven by a
  computed signal off the form's valueChanges (getCronPreview in cron-preview.util),
  so it updates live and persists after applying. The time-of-day-ignored and
  sub-daily warnings now render as proper translated lines.
- "@+<phrase>" short syntax left the clause in the title: shortSyntax set
  taskChanges.title for the cron strip, but the later parseTimeSpentChanges
  reassignment wiped it, so a bare "Foo @+every day" submitted the raw title.
  Strip into the working title and emit the cleaned title at the end.
- shortSyntax returned cronExpression unconditionally (undefined when absent),
  breaking 38 exact-match assertions; only include the key when set.

Tests
- e2e/tests/recurring/cron-repeat.spec.ts: @+ short-syntax attaches a CRON cfg
  (title stripped); full dialog flow (phrase → live preview + time warning →
  save → CRON cfg persisted).
- short-syntax.spec: @+ extraction/stripping, with and without other syntax.
- getCronPreview unit tests (interpreted cron, English, timed/sub-daily flags).

* test(task-repeat): property/fuzz/metamorphic/edge cron tests; fix first-occurrence

Large second testing pass (≈+58 unit tests, +2 E2E, new property harness),
which surfaced one gap and one upstream quirk.

Fix
- getFirstRepeatOccurrence returned null for CRON cfgs (no case → default), so a
  timed CRON task's first instance and the startDate-moved-earlier path fell
  back to today instead of the cron's first fire. Add getFirstCronOccurrence
  (first fire on/after startDate) and route CRON through it.

Tests
- cron-occurrence.invariants.spec: property/invariant battery over many crons
  (no-throw, result strictly-after / on-or-before bounds, determinism,
  monotonicity), calendar edges (leap-day, year rollover, DST spring/fall),
  pathological "Feb 30" (null, no hang), and getFirstCronOccurrence /
  getFirstRepeatOccurrence routing.
- parse-natural-cron.metamorphic.spec: relational tests (case/whitespace/order/
  irrelevant-text invariance, idempotence, determinism, raw passthrough).
- short-syntax.spec: more @+ cases (raw cron after @+, bare @ is not cron,
  unrecognized phrase ignored, clause stops at the next delimiter).
- tools/test-crono-properties.js (npm run test:crono:props): WASM determinism,
  marshalling fuzz (empty/oversized/unicode/boundary), English→cron→English
  round-trip, and occurrence simulation across every runnable corpus cron.
- e2e: invalid phrase blocks save + shows inline error (Save disabled);
  raw cron expression preview + save. Shared dialog-open helper.

Note: documented a cron-parser DST quirk — prev() skips the spring-forward
midnight, so "newest due" can land a day earlier on that date (day-granular,
once a year; lastTaskCreationDay prevents duplicates).

* test(task-repeat): selector integration, serialization, and WASM buffer-reuse

- selectors.spec: CRON cases for the selectors that drive task creation —
  selectAllUnprocessedTaskRepeatCfgs (due today, overdue, already-created,
  paused, future start, invalid expr, deleted instance) and
  selectTaskRepeatCfgsForExactDay (exact-day match). Proves a CRON cfg is
  picked up by addAllDueToday's selector path.
- cron-occurrence.invariants.spec: a CRON cfg survives a JSON round-trip with
  identical occurrence behavior (sync / backup integrity).
- test-crono-properties.js: buffer-reuse checks — a short translation after a
  long one is uncontaminated, and results stay deterministic across a 600-call
  interleaved loop (the WASM module reuses static input/output buffers).

* test(task-repeat): cross-timezone day-resolution harness

The Karma suite only runs in the host timezone (Chrome on Windows ignores the
TZ env var — the reason the pre-existing *.tz.spec fails), so cron day-resolution
was never verified across zones. Add a Node harness (npm run test:crono:tz) that
spawns a child process per timezone — Node honors TZ — and asserts day-class
invariants in each: weekly-Monday resolves to a Monday, monthly day-15 to the
15th, daily to the next calendar day, time-of-day never shifts the day, and a
full-year daily iteration is monotonic with 366 distinct days (no DST skip in
next()). Covers fractional offsets (India +05:30, Chatham +12:45/+13:45) and
Southern-hemisphere DST (Sydney). Mirrors getNextCronOccurrence's core math.

* fix(task-repeat): DST-safe newest-due; verify real engine across timezones

Closes the time-based reliability gaps from the previous testing pass.

Fix
- getNewestPossibleCronDueDate no longer uses cron-parser's prev(), which skips
  the spring-forward midnight in DST zones (a daily cron then looked like it
  didn't fire that day). It now walks days backward and asks "does the cron fire
  during this local day?" via a next()-based probe (next() is monotonic across
  DST). Spring-forward and fall-back now resolve the exact day.

Tests
- main.ts exposes the real occurrence utils on __e2eTestHelpers.cron (dev/stage
  only, stripped from production).
- e2e/cron-timezone.spec: runs the REAL engine under five forced browser
  timezones (Playwright timezoneId — reliable regardless of host OS, unlike the
  Karma TZ env). Each asserts the timezone was actually applied (live UTC
  offset) AND that day-class results are correct, incl. fractional offsets
  (Chatham +12:45) and the spring-forward day.
- test-crono-tz.js: also asserts a daily cron fires on every calendar day of the
  year in all 8 zones (regression guard for the prev() skip).
- invariants.spec: spring-forward / fall-back now assert the exact day for both
  next() and newest (no longer hedged).
- effects.spec: a CRON cfg's first occurrence is computed through the real
  updateTaskAfterMakingItRepeatable$ effect path (live new Date()).

* test(task-repeat): dev jumpDay clock helper + live day-change e2e

Adds __e2eTestHelpers.jumpDay(n) / resetClock() (dev/stage only, stripped from
production) so recurring/day-change behavior can be fast-forwarded from the
DevTools console without touching the OS clock: jumpDay shifts Date.now() by a
cumulative day offset and forces the day-change re-sample so addAllDueToday()
runs. New e2e asserts jumpDay(1) creates the next daily instance — covering the
live day-change -> creation path end to end.

* feat(task-repeat): add "create a task for each missed occurrence" option

By default, opening the app after several scheduled occurrences were
missed creates only a single instance for the most recent occurrence.
When enabled (advanced section), a separate overdue task is created for
every missed occurrence instead, oldest first, capped at the 30 most
recent to avoid flooding the list / emitting a large sync batch.

- new getAllMissedDueDates() util reuses getNextRepeatOccurrence so the
  per-cycle and CRON occurrence logic stays single-sourced and DST-safe
- service multi-spawn path is gated to the catch-up flow (target day is
  today or earlier) and is mutually exclusive with skipOverdue /
  waitForCompletion; the single newest-occurrence path is unchanged
- form checkbox hides when "skip overdue" is set, and vice versa

Part of #4020

* fix(task-repeat): re-anchor lastTaskCreationDay when cron expression changes

cronExpression was missing from SCHEDULE_AFFECTING_FIELDS, so editing a
CRON schedule did not re-run rescheduleTaskOnRepeatCfgUpdate$. A
previously computed (often future) lastTaskCreationDay then stuck around
and silently suppressed every occurrence until real time caught up to it
— e.g. a "Jan-Aug" cron set while the clock was past August anchored to
Jan 1 next year and produced no tasks in between.

Adding 'cronExpression' makes a cron edit re-anchor from the current
date, consistent with repeatCycle / repeatEvery / weekday edits.

Part of #4020

* feat(tasks): surface @+ recurring short syntax in autocomplete and help

The `@+<schedule>` add-task short syntax existed but was undiscoverable.

- add recurring examples to the `@` autocomplete suggestions: typing `@+`
  now autocompletes phrases like `@+every monday` or
  `@+every saturday from march through november`
- document `@+` in the Settings -> Short Syntax help text

Part of #4020

* fix(tasks): remove @+ recurring autocomplete entries

The `@+` examples added under the `@` mention trigger kept the suggestion
dropdown open while typing `@+<phrase>`, so pressing Enter selected a
suggestion instead of submitting the task — breaking the headline
type-and-go flow. The `@+` syntax stays documented in Settings -> Short
Syntax; only the dropdown entries are removed.

Part of #4020

* refactor(task-repeat): show cron only inside Custom recurring config

Cron appeared twice in the recurring-config dropdown: as a top-level
"Cron / natural language" quick-setting AND as a cycle inside "Custom
recurring config". Drop the duplicate top-level option; cron is now
reached via Custom -> repeatCycle = Cron.

- remove the CRON quick-setting option from the dropdown builder
- keep the repeatCycle select visible when CRON is chosen (only hide
  repeatEvery) so the user can switch back
- map existing cron configs (incl. legacy quickSetting 'CRON') to CUSTOM
  on load so the dropdown matches the stored cycle
- update the cron E2E to drive the dialog via Custom -> Cron

Part of #4020

* test(task-repeat): make @+ short-syntax e2e date-independent

The test asserted the `@+every monday` task appears in the Today view, but
a weekly schedule's first instance is the next Monday — so on any non-Monday
the task is correctly scheduled for a future day and isn't in Today, making
the test fail depending on the day it runs. Verify the attached CRON config
and the stripped title via the store instead, which is view- and
date-independent.

Part of #4020

* feat(task-repeat): RFC 5545 RRULE recurring schedules [WIP]

Overhaul recurring tasks from the bespoke repeatCycle format to RFC 5545
RRULE as the canonical recurrence representation (legacy fields kept
populated for old-client forward-compat). Adds a structured RRULE builder,
RRULE-backed quick presets, per-instance due-date derivation, multiple end
conditions (COUNT / UNTIL / after-N-completions), an occurrence heatmap with
completion simulation, natural-language @+ short syntax, and a REST API for
recurring tasks. Migration is lazy (on dialog open) so existing configs keep
firing untouched until edited.

WIP: some required features and tests are still outstanding, and it needs
much more real-world (user-based) testing before it is merge-ready.

* feat(task-repeat): per-occurrence overrides, due-date control move, @+ preview, NL fix [WIP]

- RECURRENCE-ID: per-instance overrides (move / re-time / re-title) surfaced to
  the engine as RDATE + EXDATE so every projection stays consistent.
- Move the due-date derivation control out of the rrule builder into the dialog
  so it applies to all recurring configs (presets + Custom).
- Live @+ recurrence preview (humanized rule + next occurrence date) in the
  add-task-bar, so a far-off rule is obvious before submit.
- Fix @+ "every other <weekday> in <month>" mis-parsing to YEARLY;INTERVAL=2
  ("every 2 years"); weekly-style interval + weekdays now stays WEEKLY.

* refactor(task-repeat): trim PR to engine+builder+migration+preview; fix curator review

Trim the WIP recurring-schedules PR to its reviewable core — RFC 5545 occurrence
engine, structured RRULE builder, legacy<->RRULE migration (both directions),
live text preview, quick-setting presets, and tests — and defer the rest to
follow-up sub-MRs: natural-language @+, due-date derivation, ends-after-N-
completions, missed-occurrence backfill, heatmap preview + simulation, REST
recurring creation, and RECURRENCE-ID per-instance overrides. The full
implementation is preserved on branch feat/recurring-full.

Curator review fixes:
- quickSetting forward-compat: never persist a value outside the released
  (master) union. The newer preset literals AND 'RRULE' map to 'CUSTOM' at every
  persist boundary (dialog save, add-task-bar, data-repair downgrade); the rich
  value drives the dialog UI in-memory only and the builder reconstructs from the
  opaque rrule on open. Fixes old/mobile typia sync-validation treating such
  tasks as corrupt.
- Malformed rrule now falls back to the legacy schedule fields (guarded by
  isRRuleValid) instead of silently stopping the task.
- Reverse converter maps a BYDAY-less FREQ=WEEKLY onto the start weekday, so the
  legacy WEEKLY engine still fires on old clients.
- Stop logging the raw rule body (the raw-override field makes it free-text user
  input; log history is exportable).
- DRY: share normalizeWeekdays / toNumArray between the two converters.

* refactor(task-repeat): clamp quickSetting at the action creators

The op-log replays the action payload, not reduced state
(operation-capture.service.ts), so a reducer-level clamp would not keep an
out-of-union quickSetting off the wire. Clamp in the addTaskRepeatCfgToTask /
updateTaskRepeatCfg / updateTaskRepeatCfgs creators instead -- the single
boundary every dispatcher passes through, so old/mobile clients always replay a
value their typia union accepts. The newer preset literals and 'RRULE' stay
in-memory in the dialog form only.

Removes the now-redundant per-call-site clamps in the dialog save path and the
add-task-bar; the @+ and REST paths inherit the clamp for free when their phases
return. Adds an action-creator spec covering the clamp at each entry point.

* feat(task-repeat): nth-weekday rows support multiple weekdays per ordinal

Each ordinal row (1st/2nd/3rd/4th/last) now multi-selects weekdays via toggle
buttons, so one line can mean "the 1st Monday and the 1st Tuesday" -> BYDAY=1MO,1TU.
The per-row ordinal dropdown excludes positions already used by other rows (each
ordinal anchors at most one line), and the add button hides once all are used.
Parsing groups weekdays that share an ordinal back into one row. Applies to both
the monthly and yearly nth-weekday modes; updates the helper copy accordingly.

* test(task-repeat): complex RRULE coverage + day-by-day create-loop sim

Adds high-complexity coverage for the occurrence engine and builder:
- engine variants x settings: per-day ordinals, BYSETPOS last-weekday,
  BYMONTHDAY=-1, seasonal BYMONTH, BYWEEKNO/BYYEARDAY, leap years, mixed with
  COUNT / UNTIL / EXDATE / lastTaskCreationDay
- builder forward + mode-detection + lossless round-trips (incl. multi-weekday
  ordinals and sub-daily raw-override)
- cfg->engine routing for complex rules with deletedInstanceDates and the
  malformed-rrule legacy fallback
- a "day-march" simulator that drives getNewestPossibleDueDate one day at a time
  with lastTaskCreationDay fed back like the service, asserting the created
  stream has no dupes/skips, honors EXDATE/COUNT, is idempotent within a day,
  and documents Phase-1 app-closed catch-up (newest missed only)

Also trims the deferred @+ short-syntax e2e (returns with its phase) and fixes
the dialog-flow e2e to target the current .rrule-result preview selector.

* feat(task-repeat): custom ordinal input for nth-weekday rows and BYSETPOS

The nth-weekday ordinal dropdown and the weekday-set 'which occurrence'
dropdown each gain a 'custom…' option that reveals a free-form input,
allowing any non-zero ordinal (e.g. -2 = 2nd-to-last, 5FR) and
comma-separated BYSETPOS lists (e.g. 2,-1). Parsed rules with such values
now render structurally instead of falling back to the raw override.

* feat(task-repeat): make weekday-set occurrence (BYSETPOS) a multi-select

Replace the single-value 'which occurrence' dropdown with toggle buttons
matching the weekday toggles, so several occurrences can combine (e.g.
first + last weekday = BYSETPOS=1,-1). 'Every' clears the narrowing; the
custom input stays for values without a toggle.

* fix(task-repeat): address review findings on rrule migration fidelity

- Yearly builder rules seed BYMONTH from the start month: a bare
  FREQ=YEARLY;BYMONTHDAY=n expands across every month (RFC 5545) and
  fired monthly for fresh yearly configs.
- quickSetting change handler passes the selected start date, so
  date-writing presets no longer overwrite a user-picked future anchor
  with today.
- Remove the createForEachMissed checkbox + copy: the engine has no
  backfill support yet, so the setting silently did nothing (and wrote
  an undeclared field into synced state).
- rruleToLegacyTaskRepeatCfg always resets the monthly anchor fields so
  stale nth-weekday/last-day anchors can't survive the merge, sets
  monthlyLastDay only for a pure BYMONTHDAY=-1 rule, and aligns
  startDate to the rule's first occurrence for date-anchored
  monthly/yearly rules (legacy clients read day/month from startDate);
  save() re-derives the fallback so later startDate edits stay aligned.
- _normalizeMonthlyAnchor keeps monthlyLastDay on RRULE saves — it is
  the derived old-client fallback for BYMONTHDAY=-1, not a stale preset
  flag.
- Legacy CUSTOM migration preserves clamp semantics: day > 28 anchors
  emit BYMONTHDAY=<d>,-1;BYSETPOS=1 (the day, or the last day of
  shorter months) instead of a plain BYMONTHDAY that skips such months;
  the builder serializer emits BYSETPOS in day-of-month modes so these
  rules round-trip structurally.
- Regenerate package-lock.json to drop stale cron-parser/cronstrue
  entries left over from the earlier cron approach.

* fix(task-repeat): harden rrule builder + legacy fallback after deep review

Correctness:
- Clear bySetPos (and its custom-input state) on monthly/yearly mode and
  frequency switches: a BYSETPOS left over from the weekday-set mode
  silently narrowed day-of-month rules (BYMONTHDAY=15;BYSETPOS=2 never
  fires) with no UI to see or clear it.
- Move startDate alignment out of rruleToLegacyTaskRepeatCfg into a new
  arithmetic getAlignedStartDate, applied once at save and only when the
  schedule actually changed: the occurrence-search version corrupted the
  clamp idiom (aligned a day-31 rule onto Feb 28/29 so old clients fired
  on the wrong day forever), collapsed multi-day BYMONTHDAY lists to
  their earliest day, rewrote the visible start-date field live on every
  builder interaction, cost ~60ms/keystroke for sparse rules, and put
  startDate into the change diff on title-only edits — retriggering the
  issue-#7373 reschedule. Weekday-anchored rules are no longer aligned.
- Emit the monthly-anchor resets as null/false instead of undefined (in
  the converter AND the presets' MONTHLY_ANCHOR_RESET): JSON.stringify
  drops undefined keys from op-log payloads, so the reset never reached
  remote clients and stale nth-weekday/last-day anchors survived there.
  The anchor model fields now allow null; the nth-weekday engine guard
  strips it.
- Enforce the YEARLY BYMONTH guard in the serializer: yearly date mode
  without months now emits a plain FREQ=YEARLY (anniversary) instead of
  a bare BYMONTHDAY that fires monthly; parsed bare yearly rules fall
  back to the raw override, preserving their semantics verbatim.
- Drop the auto-seeded BYMONTH when switching away from YEARLY (it
  silently constrained the new rule to one month) and seed from the
  CURRENT start date rather than the ngOnInit-captured month.
- Clamp custom nth ordinals per frequency (±5 monthly, ±53 yearly) —
  BYDAY=10MO is valid RFC but matches nothing, ever — and reject an
  ordinal another row already anchors (duplicate rows collapse on
  reload). Re-clamp poses when switching into MONTHLY.
- Drop BYSETPOS=0 on parse (parseString accepts it; re-emitting creates
  a rule the occurrence engine silently treats as dead).
- Predefined set-position toggles close the explicitly-opened custom
  input (both rendered active with contradictory state).

Cleanup:
- Extract parseIntList (4 cloned int-list sanitizers), pushBySetPos /
  pushByDaySet (4 copy-pasted emit blocks), _clampedMonthDayPart
  (monthly/yearly clamp duplication); share the monthly/yearly
  weekday-set template block via ngTemplateOutlet; parse BYSETPOS via a
  computed signal instead of per-CD string parsing.
- Correct the BYMONTHDAY hint: it claimed short months clamp to their
  last day, but plain BYMONTHDAY skips them.

* test: make timezone demo specs host-independent

Six .tz.spec demonstration tests branched on the host's CURRENT
getTimezoneOffset() (or a literal 'America/Los_Angeles' name check)
while asserting against January test instants. In DST-observing zones
the summer offset differs from the January one (e.g. New York: EDT 240
vs EST 300), so the wrong branch was taken and the suite failed every
summer on US-east machines, blocking pre-push hooks.

Branch on the offset AT the test instant instead, with the correct
longitude threshold for each instant (07:00 UTC flips the local day at
UTC-7, 06:00 UTC at UTC-6, midnight UTC at UTC±0) — the tests now pass
in any host timezone year-round.

* test: pin browser timezone to Europe/Berlin in karma config

Re-enable the previously commented-out TZ pin so timezone-sensitive
specs run deterministically where Chrome honors the env var
(Linux/macOS, incl. CI). Verified empirically that headless Chrome on
Windows IGNORES TZ and keeps the host zone — the *.tz.spec.ts files
keep their offset-at-test-instant branching as the Windows backstop.

* test: make supersync dump/restore helpers cross-platform

createFullDump/restoreFullDump used POSIX-only shell constructs (output
redirection to /tmp, 'cat | psql', 'rm -f'). On Windows the restore
pipeline failed AFTER the 'DROP SCHEMA public CASCADE' had already
succeeded, leaving the test database without any tables — every
subsequent spec in the run then failed in createTestUser with 'table
public.users does not exist' (5 cascading failures + dozens of
never-ran tests).

Capture pg_dump via execSync stdout + fs.writeFileSync, feed the
restore through stdin (execSync input), use os.tmpdir() and
fs.unlinkSync. Verified: full dump-restore spec plus the three spec
files it previously poisoned all pass on Windows (14/14).

* test(e2e): round-trip coverage for new rrule builder widgets

Covers the four gaps hand-testing would otherwise need to catch, using
the dialog's live result band as the oracle (.rrule-result__expr =
exact assembled rule, .rrule-result__next = engine-computed upcoming
dates — no waiting for real time):

- custom nth ordinal (-2 = 2nd-to-last weekday) emits the right BYDAY
  and persists verbatim
- BYSETPOS multi-select (first + last) emits BYSETPOS=1,-1 and persists
- mode switch drops a weekday-set BYSETPOS instead of leaking it into a
  day-of-month rule (dead-rule regression)
- switching to YEARLY seeds BYMONTH and the upcoming dates are strictly
  one per year

Persistence asserted via the NgRx store: saving a recurring cfg
re-plans the task onto its first occurrence (usually not today), so a
UI reopen from the work view is date-dependent; the parse-to-widget
rendering side is covered by the dialog/builder unit specs.

* fix(add-task-bar): open the repeat dialog for the custom recurring option

The repeat quick-setting menu emits the 'RRULE' value for 'Custom
recurring config', but the add-task-bar still branched on the legacy
'CUSTOM' value — picking the option fell through to the preset path and
silently created a weekly-fallback cfg instead of opening the dialog.

Route both 'RRULE' and 'CUSTOM' through the dialog path, preselect the
RRULE builder in the dialog via a new initialQuickSetting dialog input
(the user explicitly asked for a custom rule), and show the tune icon
for the menu entry again. Covered by a new e2e: menu pick → task
created → builder dialog opens → saved rule persists verbatim.

* fix(task-repeat): address review on rrule alignment + anchor sync safety

- getAlignedStartDate re-anchors onto the rule's actual first occurrence
  (occurrence-set-neutral for INTERVAL/COUNT/UNTIL) instead of pure date
  math that shifted INTERVAL cadence and skipped valid clamped occurrences
- save() always re-derives the legacy fallback fields against the final
  startDate, not only when alignment moved it
- monthly anchors never persist null (released clients' typia schema only
  allows absent-or-numeric): undefined resets everywhere, null stripped at
  the action-creator boundary, model reverted to master signature
- round-trip guard ignores BYSETPOS=0 so the cleaned rule is emitted
  instead of being preserved verbatim via raw override

* docs(wiki): fix MD024 duplicate headings on repeating-tasks page

* fix(task-repeat): harden rrule save guards + restore preset labels on reopen

Correctness (from deep review of the branch diff):
- reject COUNT combined with repeatFromCompletionDate at save: completion
  re-anchors startDate/lastTaskCreationDay, restarting the COUNT window, so
  the series would never terminate
- reject parseable rules that yield zero occurrences (e.g.
  FREQ=YEARLY;BYMONTH=2;BYMONTHDAY=30): they persisted as silently dead
  recurrences with the legacy fallback bypassed
- map the builder's single-weekday BYSETPOS form (BYDAY=FR;BYSETPOS=-1,
  'last Friday') onto the legacy nth-weekday anchor; old clients previously
  fell back to startDate's day-of-month — a wrong recurrence

Polish:
- infer the preset back from the stored rrule when quickSetting was
  wire-clamped to CUSTOM, so Weekends & co. reopen under their label
  instead of the raw builder; new QUICK_SETTING_PRESETS single source
  replaces the hand-maintained KNOWN_PRESETS set
- extract shared safeParseRRuleOptions + FREQ_TO_CYCLE (six drifted
  hand-rolled parse wrappers); memoize isRRuleValid (per-cfg routing guard
  on every overdue scan); share noonUtc/toLocalNoon between engine and
  preview; fold toMonthArray onto toNumArray; merge the duplicate
  _toPersisted action-creator helpers
- trim the wiki section documenting the create-for-each-missed feature
  that was deliberately cut from this PR

* fix(task-repeat): address curator review on anchor validity + fallback phase

- never emit/persist an out-of-union monthlyWeekOfMonth: range-guard the
  BYDAY ordinal in rruleToLegacyTaskRepeatCfg (the builder's custom input
  allows ±5, the synced model only 1..4|-1), sanitize null AND out-of-range
  anchors at the action-creator boundary, and mirror the repair in
  data-repair — an out-of-union value trips released clients' typia
  validation/repair flow
- reject sub-daily frequencies (raw override FREQ=HOURLY/...) at save: the
  day-granular engine would accept but silently collapse them to ~daily,
  and they have no legacy repeatCycle for old clients
- log hygiene: the update-all-instances flow now logs changed keys + task
  ids instead of raw changes/task objects (title, notes and rrule body are
  user content; the log history is exportable); engine warns log the error
  name only, since rrule.js messages can embed the free-text rule body
- align single-BYDAY weekly rules onto the engine's first occurrence: the
  engine groups weeks by WKST while the legacy fallback counts rolling
  7-day blocks from startDate, so biweekly cfgs whose start is off the
  pattern day fired on OPPOSITE alternating weeks on old vs new clients
  (and WKST shifted the engine's phase, which legacy cannot express);
  after re-anchoring the cadence is exactly interval*7 days in both
- diff dialog saves against the PROCESSED cfg: the lazy legacy->rrule
  migration (and preset inference) no longer leak into the change set of a
  title-only edit — rrule is schedule-affecting, so that leak relocated
  today's live instance on unrelated edits; empty change sets skip the
  update dispatch entirely instead of creating a no-op sync op

* fix(task-repeat): keep presets rrule-backed + builder mode for completion cfgs

- stop stripping the preset-generated rrule at save: getQuickSettingUpdates
  OVERWRITES the rule with the preset's canonical one, so the old 'clear on
  switch away from builder' branch broke the every-cfg-carries-its-rrule
  contract — and an rrule:undefined clear would not even propagate (dropped
  by the op-log JSON wire, leaving remote clients on the old rule); the spec
  asserting the stale behavior is inverted
- completion-relative cfgs always open in builder mode: the schedule-type
  toggle only exists there, so preset inference (or a stored faithful preset
  label) would hide the one control that explains how the cfg fires
- monthly anchor clears: document the wire gap properly instead of flipping
  values again — null trips released clients' blocking data-repair confirm
  dialog on every sync (typia has no null on these fields), undefined clears
  only locally; durable clears require shipping '| null' on both fields in a
  release FIRST, then switching the reset value (sequenced migration note in
  the model + an op-log JSON round-trip spec pinning current behavior)
- replace 6 hardcoded rrule-builder placeholders with translation keys
- revert the settings help text advertising the deferred @+ short syntax

* test(e2e): drop CUSTOM weekday-checkbox spec superseded by rrule builder

The #8025 e2e (merged in from master) drives the legacy CUSTOM recurring
form's cycle select + weekday checkboxes, which this branch removes — the
RRULE builder replaces that UI and its weekday toggles are covered by
rrule-builder-roundtrip.spec.ts. The #8025 failure mode (a saved weekly
cfg that never fires) is blocked generally at save by the first-occurrence
probe.

* test(e2e): de-flake worklog history day-row wait

The worklog is rebuilt from the archive on the history navigation, so the
day row only appears once that async load + month-expand animation settles.
The bare `waitFor` fell back to the 15s action timeout, which CI load
(prod build, 3 workers) could exceed. Use a web-first `expect().toBeVisible()`
with 30s headroom instead.

* fix(task-repeat-cfg): clear repeat-from-completion when switching to a preset

The "from completion" schedule-type toggle exists only inside the RRULE
builder. Selecting a preset hides it, but the flag stuck on the cfg, so a
preset could keep firing relative to completion with no visible control.

Clear it at the save() edit boundary, but only when actually set, so an
untouched preset save stays an empty-diff no-op (#7373 class) rather than
dispatching a spurious undefined->false op. The ADD path already starts from
a false default, so the dialog is the only path that needs it.

Also reword the monthly-anchor clear comments: the cross-client divergence on
an nth-weekday -> day-of-month switch is an inherent, unfixable limitation for
pre-rrule clients (no in-schema "no anchor" value; a `| null` migration would
help an empty client band), not a deferred TODO. Make the round-trip test pin
this explicitly and start the monthlyLastDay case from `true` so it proves the
`false` clear survives the wire instead of passing vacuously.

0d1869263f docs: remove outdated and implemented plan docs
Delete 29 plan/design docs whose work has shipped or been superseded
(SuperSync slices, sync-core extraction, encryption-at-rest drafts,
document-mode/Stage-A persistence, calendar/CalDAV concepts, focus-mode
time-tracking sync, etc.).

Kept the still-forward-looking docs (e.g. supersync-encryption-at-rest,
sync-core-simplification-roadmap, calendar-two-way-sync-technical-analysis).

Source comments that cited deleted docs are rewritten into self-contained
inline rationale so no "see docs/..." reference dangles.

ded0240b8e docs(task-repeat-cfg): revise RRULE migration plan and consolidate to one doc
Rewrite the recurring-events plan after multi-axis review against the
codebase. Adopt a typed, RRULE-isomorphic recurrence model (RRULE string
at the export/CalDAV boundary only), keep the synchronous occurrence
engine, and route migration through the op-log schema system. Fold the
gap-analysis and industry-standards research docs into the plan as
appendices and remove them.

bffbbaed5b docs(research): §18.7 — source-level mechanism for appendSwitch vs argv divergence
Trace the root cause to Electron's init order: Ozone platform selection
fires in C++ PreEarlyInitialization() and the chosen platform is
memoized in ui/ozone/platform_selection.cc's g_selected_platform
static. Any app.commandLine.appendSwitch() from main.js runs in
PostEarlyInitialization() — after the memoization, so the write is
correct but the read has already happened. Primary source: electron
PR #48301 diff + Chromium ui/ozone/platform_selection.cc.

This confirms the argv wrapper is structurally the only fix available
from outside the Electron binary. Also documents why the two
lower-friction alternatives don't work:

- ELECTRON_OZONE_PLATFORM_HINT env var was removed as dead code in
  Electron 39 (PR #47983).
- Setting XDG_SESSION_TYPE=x11 via snapcraft.yaml environment: would
  work for Ozone but would fool IdleTimeHandler, silently breaking
  GNOME Wayland idle detection.

Confidence in the mechanism hypothesis is raised from ~40% to ~85%.
Residual unknown: whether GPU child-process CommandLine inheritance
exposes a late appendSwitch to subsystems other than Ozone. Not
verified from source; does not change the shipping recommendation.

Related: issue #7270.

297aeb30ab fix(electron): harden Snap+Wayland argv wrapper after multi-review
Address findings from code-reviewer + debugger-assistant +
refactor-specialist multi-review on 8e1c47ebc2:

- afterPack: read wrapper source before rename; on writeFile failure,
  roll the rename back so a broken intermediate state can't ship a
  package with no launcher. Strengthen idempotency check to require a
  shebang at binPath (both files alone no longer counts as "installed").
- wrapper: gate the X11 injection on \$SNAP_NAME = "superproductivity",
  not just \$SNAP set. An xdg-open from a sibling snap (e.g. Firefox)
  leaks \$SNAP into the child env, which previously would have silently
  forced XWayland on .deb/.rpm users. Derive BIN_DIR from \$SNAP
  directly when we are our snap, avoiding fragile \$0 resolution
  through snapd's wrapper chain. Stop argv scanning at -- so positional
  args that resemble --ozone-platform aren't misread as a user override.
- app-control: point app.relaunch() execPath at the sibling shell
  wrapper instead of the default process.execPath (which is the renamed
  ELF and would bypass the flag injection on a relaunched Snap+Wayland
  instance).
- Move build/snap-wrapper.sh -> build/linux/snap-wrapper.sh to match
  the existing build/linux/ layout convention.
- Update research doc §18 to reflect the tightened predicate and the
  relaunch fix.

7f503c9bf0 fix(electron): inject ozone-platform=x11 via argv wrapper for Snap+Wayland
Field reports on issue #7270 (v18.2.4 / v18.2.5) show that
app.commandLine.appendSwitch('ozone-platform','x11') is not equivalent
to the CLI flag on Snap+Wayland: Chromium's Ozone init dlopens
libEGL/libgbm on the core22 Mesa path before the switch is honored and
segfaults under host-vs-snap Mesa ABI drift, while the same flag on
argv consistently works.

Install an afterPack hook that renames the Electron binary and drops a
shell wrapper at the original name. The wrapper injects the flag into
argv only when \$SNAP is set AND the session is Wayland — non-Snap
targets (AppImage, .deb, .rpm) and X11 sessions pass through untouched.
Matches the mechanism used by snapcrafters/signal-desktop and
snapcrafters/mattermost-desktop.

See docs/research/snap-wayland-gpu-fix-research.md §18 for the full
evidence trail, drawbacks, validation plan, and removal conditions.

18474d64e7 docs(research): add §17 — multi-agent review + 5-agent depth research
7-reviewer multi-review (6 Claude focus-agents + Codex CLI) over the
cherry-picked PR #7273 diff, plus 5 parallel research agents on Mesa
mechanism, Chromium flag behavior, peer-app field data, core22→core24
cost, and marker-timing semantics.

§17 captures: findings that changed the PR (now shipped in the
previous commit), disagreements worth noting (Codex W-C1 vs. three
independent flag-pair sources), validated decisions (APP_READY signal,
Snap config shape, novelty of the crash-loop mechanism), deferred
scope (pre-flight probe, core24 migration, forensic listener,
TOCTOU hardening), and confidence deltas.

Adds 14 new references (Mesa commit, libgbm ABI instability,
peer-app issues on Ubuntu 25.10, Canonical core24 migration docs,
electron-builder#8548, Obsidian launcher) tying each to the §17
claim it supports.

9f447198bb docs(research): revive §12 PR #7273 — n=2 field data fires the revisit trigger
The "PR #7273 was closed" paragraph predates the two post-v18.2.4
field reports in §16. Updated to acknowledge the revisit condition
explicitly: reopen only if a real report came in that X11 widening
didn't rescue. §16 documents two such reports (Intel/Ubuntu 24.04 and
AMD/Ubuntu 25.10), both showing #7266's guard firing correctly and
still not rescuing the user. PR #7273's mechanism is no longer
speculative — it rescues the population #7266 provably does not.

Also wrap DISPLAY_COMPOSITOR in backticks on line 846 to prevent
prettier from parsing underscores as an italic span across lines.

6af2a6e0ac docs(research): update §16 with nekufa report (n=2, vendor-agnostic)
Second post-v18.2.4 field report (Ubuntu 25.10 + AMD Raphael) replicates
DerEchteKoschi's failure pattern (Ubuntu 24.04 + Intel Arrow Lake-P):
#7266's guard fires, MESA-LOADER fails on gbm/dri_gbm.so, GPU process
segfaults in a loop regardless of ozone platform. Confirms the tail is
driven by host-Mesa/core22-runtime drift, not GPU vendor or generation.

Changes in §16:
- Intro + Environments: switch to n=2 framing with per-reporter blocks.
- What the log proves: clarify shared pattern; flag nekufa's
  `--ozon-platform` typo (short-circuit in start-app.ts:73-75 only
  matches `--ozone-platform`, so the log reflects the programmatic path).
- Scope table: drop "Arrow Lake, newer" parenthetical — generic
  drift row covers any Ubuntu ≥ 24.04 with core22 mismatch.
- PR #7273 framing + core24 urgency cite n=2 evidence.
- Open question: note nekufa's typo disqualifies from CLI vs
  appendSwitch question.
- Actionable outcomes split reply-to-thread per reporter; add
  item 6 for separate Ctrl+Shift+X issue.
- Confidence: arch-specificity upgraded Medium → High.
- References: add both comment permalinks.

Prettier formatting applied.

First post-release report on PR #7266 (v18.2.4): X11 widening fires
but doesn't rescue user on Ubuntu 24.04 + Intel Arrow Lake-P. Mesa

docs(research): extend Snap+Wayland GPU research with PR #7273 follow-up (#7275)
Follow-up to issue #7270 and the now-closed PR #7273. Extends the
existing research doc with four new sections based on multi-agent
research, verification passes, and empirical reporter confirmation.

- §12: PR #7273 GPU startup guard framing and mechanism analysis.
- §13: Deepened research on Chromium/Electron/Mesa correctness, prior
  art for crash-loop startup markers (Firefox recent_crashes, Chromium
  in-process GpuMode stack, BugSnag/Sentry patterns), testing strategy
  with concrete spec proposal, edge cases, and long-term strategy.
- §14: Verification pass findings (four parallel agents) — corrections
  applied to §12 (v18.2.3 timeline, --disable-gpu wording), rejected
  claims with evidence, outstanding attribution fixes.
- §15: Final PR re-evaluation — including why PR #7273 was closed in
  favor of #7266 after the reporter empirically confirmed that
  --ozone-platform=x11 resolves their launch failure on Ubuntu 22.04.

Keeps the research available for the next time this class of failure
surfaces (future Chromium bumps, Mesa ABI drift on core24/gpu-2404,
Flatpak packaging, etc.).

Claude/snap wayland gpu fix co dc5 (#7266)
* docs(research): add Snap + Wayland GPU init failure research

Synthesizes root cause (Mesa ABI drift in gnome-42-2204), scope,
peer-app consensus, and ranked options. Recommends widening the
existing Snap-gated --ozone-platform=x11 guard in start-app.ts to
cover Snap + Wayland sessions, with core24 + gpu-2404 migration
as the long-term fix.

* docs(research): correct electron timing and soften unverified peer claims

* fix(electron): force X11 on Snap Wayland to avoid Mesa ABI drift

The existing Snap-only X11 fallback triggered only when $SNAP/gnome-platform
was empty. In practice gnome-platform is populated but its Mesa can drift
out of ABI sync with Electron's bundled libgbm, producing
"Failed to get system egl display" and a GPU process respawn loop on
Wayland sessions. Widen the guard to also fire when the session is
Wayland (XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland or WAYLAND_DISPLAY set). X11/GLX
avoids the failing Wayland EGL init path entirely while preserving
hardware acceleration.

* refactor(electron): address review feedback on Snap X11 force

- Handle space-separated `--ozone-platform wayland` override in addition
  to the `=` form; tighten the argv scan to reject accidental substring
  matches (e.g., arg values that happen to contain `--ozone-platform=`).
- Enrich the log line with raw XDG_SESSION_TYPE and WAYLAND_DISPLAY
  values to make user-reported triage faster.
- Tighten comment: correct "X11/GLX" to "X11 ozone backend" (modern
  Chromium uses EGL on X11), clarify the root cause as Mesa version
  drift rather than bundled-library ABI drift, broaden the loss list
  beyond fractional scaling, and move issue references to the commit
  body per CLAUDE.md guidance.

Follow-ups flagged but not addressed here: possible interaction with
`allowNativeWayland: true` in electron-builder.yaml, GPU cache keyed
by effective ozone platform, and the longer-term core24 migration
already in docs/long-term-plans/electron-upgrade-to-v40.md.

* docs(research): add recurring events industry standards analysis

Comprehensive research comparing Super Productivity's recurring task
implementation against RFC 5545 RRULE standard and major applications
(Google Calendar, Todoist, Things 3, TickTick).

Key findings:
- Current implementation covers basic patterns but lacks nth weekday,
  last day of month, and end conditions (COUNT/UNTIL)
- Recommends adopting rrule.js library for RFC 5545 compliance
- Proposes incremental migration path preserving existing functionality
- Notes "after completion" mode as competitive advantage to preserve

Gap analysis compares current TaskRepeatCfg model against RFC 5545 RRULE
and major applications (Google Calendar, Todoist, Things 3, TickTick).

Implementation plan details 4-phase approach:
- Phase 1: Add rrule.js, create DST-safe wrappers
- Phase 2: Enable new patterns (nth weekday, last day, end conditions)
- Phase 3: Lazy migration strategy
- Phase 4: Natural language display, iCal export
