Replace cobra.OnInitialize with PersistentPreRun pattern to fix initialization
issues with setup and server commands. This follows Cobra best practices and
allows subcommands to properly override initialization behavior.
Problem:
- OnInitialize runs globally before command parsing
- os.Args check for 'setup' was fragile and broke with flags
- Setup wizard failed on server: 'unable to open database file: no such file
or directory'
Solution:
- Use rootCmd.PersistentPreRun for initialization (inherited by all commands)
- setup and server commands override with their own PersistentPreRun
- Directory overrides still applied correctly in all cases
- Removes fragile os.Args parsing
Benefits:
- Works regardless of flag order
- Follows Cobra's intended design patterns
- Only 3 files modified (root.go, setup.go, server.go)
- Commands that need custom init (setup/server) simply override
- All other commands get automatic initialization
- Cleaner, more maintainable code
Testing:
- ✓ opal setup works without initialization errors
- ✓ opal list initializes database correctly
- ✓ First-run detection still works
- ✓ Directory overrides work with flags in any position
- ✓ Server command handles its own initialization
Display the default config and data directories before prompting
the user if they want to customize them. This gives better context
for the decision.
Before: Only showed directories if user chose not to customize
After: Shows directories first, then asks if user wants to change them
Implement a comprehensive setup wizard to improve onboarding and
configuration experience for both personal and server deployments.
Key features:

- Template generators for systemd service and env files
New commands:
- opal setup # Interactive wizard
- opal setup --quick # Quick setup with defaults
- opal setup --profile # Use specific profile
- opal setup --show-systemd # Show systemd template

- On first run, shows welcome message suggesting 'opal setup'
- Non-intrusive - creates defaults automatically if skipped
- Wizard guides through all configuration options
- Server setup includes OAuth/JWT configuration
- Environment file created with proper permissions (0600)
- Clear next steps displayed after completion

API keys still work for CLI compatibility while JWT tokens support web/mobile clients.
BREAKING CHANGE: BuildWorkingSet() now accepts []*Task instead of *Filter
Problem:
- Working set IDs were assigned based on database query order (unsorted)
- Reports displayed tasks in sorted order (by urgency)
- Result: IDs didn't match displayed task positions (ID 1 wasn't first task)
Solution:
- Changed BuildWorkingSet() to accept pre-sorted task slice
- Reports now pass sorted tasks to BuildWorkingSet()
- IDs are assigned sequentially to match display order (1, 2, 3...)
Behavior:
- Reports rebuild working set on every execution with fresh IDs
- Task operations (done, modify, info) use saved working set IDs
- After completing a task, re-running report renumbers remaining tasks
Example:
Before: opal list shows ID 1 = low urgency task (wrong)
After: opal list shows ID 1 = highest urgency task (correct)
Tested scenarios:
✓ List report: IDs 1-N match urgency order
✓ Next report: IDs 1-5 match top urgent tasks
✓ Task completion: IDs renumber correctly after removal
✓ Multiple operations: Use saved working set (correct behavior)
✓ Different reports: Each builds own sequential IDs
- Add urgency calculation based on multiple factors:
* Due date (linear scale: overdue=12.0, today=10.0, week=6.0, 2weeks=2.0)
* Priority (H=6.0, M=3.9, D=1.8, L=0.0)
* Age (0-2.0 over 365 days)
* Active status (+4.0 boost)
* Waiting status (-3.0 penalty)
* Tags (+1.0 with count modifier)
* Project assignment (+1.0)
* Configurable urgent tag (default 'next', +15.0)
- Replace priority column with urgency in all reports
* Display as decimal with 1 decimal place
* 4-tier color coding: ≥10 (bright red), ≥5 (red), ≥2 (yellow), <2 (cyan)
* Minimal format color-coded by urgency
- Add default urgency sorting to all reports
* list, minimal, active, ready, overdue reports sort by urgency
* newest/oldest keep date-based sorting
- Implement 'next' report
* Shows most urgent ready tasks
* Configurable limit (default 5)
* Only includes tasks ready to work on (no future wait/scheduled)
- Add urgency display to info command
* Shows urgency score alongside priority
- All urgency coefficients configurable via config
* Adjusted defaults for Opal's simpler model (no blocking/annotations)
* Configurable urgent tag name (not hardcoded to 'next')
Priority order maintained: High > Medium > Default > Low
- Implement ProgressReporter interface with InteractiveProgress and NoOpProgress
- Add real-time progress bars using go-pretty/progress library
- Track 6 sync phases: connection test, queue push, pull, parse, apply, and server push
- Add --quiet flag to suppress progress output
- Auto-detect TTY to disable progress when piped/redirected
- Show task-level progress during apply phase with descriptions
- Display percentage complete and elapsed time for each phase
- Fix template task filtering bug: templates now hidden from all reports
except 'template' and 'all' reports, even when using custom filters
- Add support for status:template filter to explicitly show templates
- Implement comprehensive report system with 12 predefined reports:
* active - Started tasks
* all - All tasks including templates
* completed - Completed tasks
* list - Pending tasks (default)
* minimal - Pending tasks in minimal format
* newest - Most recent pending tasks
* oldest - Oldest pending tasks
* overdue - Overdue tasks
* ready - Tasks ready to work on
* recurring - Pending recurring instances
* template - Recurring template tasks
* waiting - Hidden/waiting tasks
- Replace list command with report-based architecture
- Add configurable default_report option (defaults to 'list')
- Add minimal display format (ID + description only)
- Support flexible syntax: 'opal <report> [filters]' or 'opal [filters] <report>'
- Add 'opal reports' command to list all available reports
Implement complete key:value format parsing for change log entries and fix
critical tag synchronization issue from server to client.
Key Changes:
1. Shared Key:Value Parser (NEW: internal/engine/parser.go)
- Created ParseKeyValueFormat() for both edit and sync operations
- Supports flexible whitespace: 'key:value' and 'key: value'
- Handles comment skipping for edit files
- Consolidates parsing logic (DRY principle)
2. Database Triggers - Tags Support (internal/engine/database.go)
- Added tags to track_task_create trigger
- Added tags to track_task_update trigger
- Tags sorted alphabetically via SQL ORDER BY
- Format: 'tags: alpha,bravo,charlie'
3. Task Creation - Tag Update Fix (internal/engine/task.go)
- CreateTaskWithModifier() now triggers update after adding tags
- Ensures tags appear in change log (UPDATE entry)
- Fixes missing tags in initial CREATE entries
4. Edit Command - Use Shared Parser (cmd/edit.go)
- Replaced custom parseEditedFile() with shared ParseKeyValueFormat()
- Added tag sorting in parseTags()
- Removed ~30 lines, improved maintainability
5. Sync Client - Complete Implementation (internal/sync/client.go)
- NEW: applyChangeDataToTask() - parses all fields from change log
- NEW: Helper functions for status, priority, tag parsing
- FIXED: parseChanges() - sort by timestamp+ID before grouping
- Added parent/child task ordering (prevents FK violations)
- Enhanced tag sync in merge loop with task reload
- Specific validation error messages per field
Critical Bug Fix:
- When CREATE and UPDATE have same timestamp, old code kept CREATE (no tags)
- New code sorts by ID as tiebreaker, ensuring UPDATE (with tags) is used
- Verified: Server->client tag sync now works correctly
Validation:
- Description must not be empty (both edit and sync)
- Recurrence validated (not negative, max 100 years)
- All timestamps parsed correctly (Unix epoch)
- Tags sorted alphabetically in all contexts
Testing:
- Fresh pull from server: ✅ All tags present
- API-created tasks: ✅ Tags sync correctly
- Local->server->client round-trip: ✅ No data loss
- Same-second CREATE+UPDATE: ✅ Correct entry processed
- Parent/child tasks: ✅ Correct ordering
Files Changed:
- NEW: internal/engine/parser.go (+44 lines)
- Modified: internal/engine/database.go (+10 lines)
- Modified: internal/engine/task.go (+8 lines)
- Modified: cmd/edit.go (-25 lines net)
- Modified: internal/sync/client.go (+280 lines)
- Modified: srv/README.md (+1 line)
Total: +318 lines added, -25 removed, net +293 lines

- Sync handlers already implemented in Phase 1 (GetChanges, PushChanges)
Replace manual string-based table formatting with jedib0t/go-pretty/v6/table
library to fix alignment issues with Norwegian characters (æøå) and ANSI
color codes.
Changes:
- Migrate FormatTaskList() to use go-pretty table
- Migrate FormatTaskDetail() to use clean table format
- Migrate FormatProjects() and FormatTagCounts() for consistency
- Remove truncate() function (no longer needed)
- Configure StyleLight with Unicode box-drawing characters
- Set proper column widths and alignment
Fixes:
- Priority column now center-aligned under 'Pri'
- Norwegian characters (æøå) display and align correctly
- Tags column properly aligned
- Description field truncates at 40 chars with proper UTF-8 handling
- All ANSI color codes handled automatically
- Consistent formatting across all table views
All existing color functions work unchanged. UTF-8 and ANSI codes are
handled automatically by go-pretty's width calculation.
When creating recurring tasks, modifiers (due, wait, priority, etc) were
not being applied because AttributeOrder was not copied to the temporary
modifier. This caused all date attributes to be ignored.
Refactored addRecurringTask to:
- Create task structs directly instead of using CreateTask (avoiding
premature saves)
- Use ApplyToNew() instead of Apply() for modifiers before first save
- Properly copy AttributeOrder when building the temporary modifier
- Save template and instance once with all fields correctly set
This ensures recurring tasks now properly have due dates, wait dates,
and other modifiers applied when created via 'opal add' or batch import.
- Add 'opal info' command to display detailed task information
- Shows all task attributes including UUID, timestamps, and metadata
- Supports flexible syntax (opal info 2 or opal 2 info)
- Displays recurrence information and parent UUID for recurring tasks
- Add 'opal edit' command to edit tasks in $EDITOR
- Opens task in text editor with human-readable format
- Supports all editable fields with smart date formatting
- Special handling for recurring tasks (updates parent template)
- Status changes trigger appropriate methods (Complete/Delete)
- Auto-saves changes on editor exit without confirmation
- Clear validation and error messages
- Register new commands in root command dispatcher
Previously, only numeric forms (1d, 1w, 1m, 1y) and plural word forms
(days, weeks, months, years) were supported for recurrence patterns.
The common adverbial forms (daily, weekly, monthly, yearly) would fail
with 'invalid recurrence pattern' error.
Now users can use natural language recurrence patterns:
- recur:daily -> 1 day interval
- recur:weekly -> 7 day interval
- recur:monthly -> 30 day interval
- recur:yearly -> 365 day interval
Added test coverage for all four new patterns.
Previously, 'opal -h', 'opal --help', and 'opal help' would show the
list command help instead of the root command help. This was because
the argument preprocessing logic would rewrite these as 'opal list -h'
before Cobra could handle them.
Now we detect help flags/command before preprocessing and let Cobra
handle them naturally. This ensures:
- 'opal -h' and 'opal --help' show root help
- 'opal help' shows root help
- 'opal help <command>' shows command-specific help
- 'opal <command> -h' still shows command-specific help
- All existing flexible syntax continues to work

- All 33 existing tests passing
Issue 1: Fix recurrence calculation for overdue tasks
- Use completion date (End) as base for next instance, not original due date
- If task due Monday completed Wednesday, next is Wednesday+7d not Monday+7d
- Fallback to Due date if End is not set
- Update test to verify new behavior
Issue 2: Fix description parsing to work without quotes
- Add parseAddArgs() to extract description from non-modifier words
- Description = all words that don't start with +, -, or contain :
- Enables: opal add buy groceries +shop carrots → 'buy groceries carrots'
- Validate description is required (error if only modifiers)
- Validate recurring tasks require due date
Issue 3: Implement flexible command syntax
- Add preprocessArgs() to parse arguments before Cobra routing
- Detect command position and split filters (left) from modifiers (right)
- Rewrite os.Args so Cobra routes correctly
- Enable both 'opal 2 done' and 'opal done 2' syntax
- Commands without modifiers accept filters on either side
- Commands with modifiers enforce [filters] command [modifiers]
- Add confirmation for modify without filters (modifies all tasks)
All commands updated to use preprocessed ParsedArgs from context.
All tests passing (33 tests).
