- Add migration v2: source column on change_log to distinguish local
vs sync-originated entries, preventing the echo loop where synced
tasks get re-pushed as local changes
- PushChanges handler now skips save when server version is newer
- Client PushChanges/pushQueuedChanges collect and report marshal errors
instead of silently dropping them
- De-duplicate getLocalChanges/getLastSyncTime into exported sync
package functions
- Fix logConflict winner detection via pointer identity instead of
fragile UUID+timestamp comparison
- Fix sync down to actually parse, save, and tag-sync pulled changes

Separate configuration from data storage and make paths configurable
via environment variables and command-line flags. This improves
Unix/Linux compliance and supports both development and production
deployments.
Key changes:
- Separate config dir (opal.yml) from data dir (database, logs)
- Support XDG Base Directory specification
- Add --config-dir and --data-dir flags
- Environment variables: OPAL_CONFIG_DIR, OPAL_DATA_DIR, OPAL_DB_PATH
- Smart fallback: /etc/opal, /var/lib/opal -> ~/.config/opal, ~/.local/share/opal
- Server mode validates required OAuth/JWT environment variables
- Update naming from 'jade' to 'opal' throughout
- Update systemd service name to 'opal.service'
- Add migration guide in README
Default paths:
- Config: /etc/opal (fallback: ~/.config/opal)
- Data: /var/lib/opal (fallback: ~/.local/share/opal)
Files modified:
- internal/engine/config.go: New directory resolution logic
- internal/engine/database.go: Auto-create data directory
- cmd/root.go: Add global flags for directory overrides
- cmd/server.go: Add configuration validation
- cmd/sync.go, internal/sync/*: Use new path helper functions
- tests: Update to use directory overrides
- docs: Update deployment guide and README
- Created sync client for communicating with API server
- Implemented conflict resolution strategies (last-write-wins, server-wins, client-wins)
- Added offline change queue for queuing changes when server is unreachable
- Implemented merge logic for local and remote task lists
- Added conflict logging to sync_conflicts.log
- Created bidirectional sync with pull/push operations
- Extended Config struct with sync settings (URL, API key, client ID, strategy, offline queue)
- Added SyncResult display with user-friendly output
- Sync handlers already implemented in Phase 1 (GetChanges, PushChanges)
