The store picker and the export screen were the two frontend surfaces
the own-store work left unbuilt, so both backends shipped unreachable.
Settings gains a Storage section holding them: a full-screen picker over
Own / an installed external provider (dimmed when none is present, named
after the provider's own app), and an export screen with a per-list tick
and the two SAF destinations, a folder or a single zip. The picker asks
for the provider's runtime permission before writing the mode, so a
denial leaves the readable store in place instead of dropping the user on
the gate; a refusal is reported with a route to app settings.
Making the mode switchable at runtime had two consequences:
- reminders are armed off whichever store was active when they were
scheduled, so a switch rebuilds the set. ReminderScheduler.sync() is
now serialised — it is a read-modify-write over ScheduledReminderStore,
and overlapping runs each wrote their own set as the whole truth
- the permission gate is the only screen an External user can reach once
their provider app stops answering, so it offers the way back to our
own store
ExportWriter no longer deletes a previous export before recreating it (a
failure in between lost both), lists the target directory once instead of
per document, and carries a typed ExportFailure so the screen can report
in the user's language rather than an exception message.
Owning the store left a fresh install with no lists and no way to make
one, so no way to save a task. The seam gains updateList/deleteList
beside createLocalList on both paths — the External one addresses the row
as its own account's sync adapter, the only caller the provider lets
write tasklists. ListEditorSheet is the family's full-screen sheet: name
field, a 12-colour palette, and a destructive row behind a confirm when
editing. Entry points are a "New list" row under the home Lists section,
an empty state with a create button, and the home FAB switching to "New
list" while there are none. Deleting takes the list's tasks with it and
is offered only for device-only lists.
Four defects a review of the branch turned up:
- completing one occurrence closed the whole series — setCompleted wrote
the master, the row TaskDao.tasks filters on. setCompletedInstance
forks a RECURRENCE-ID override the way updateInstance does; phase 2
always specified this, only the edit half had it
- the expansion ceiling was spent on the past, so a sub-daily series
stopped expanding months before today and never reached Today or
Upcoming
- an imported START-referenced reminder fired off DUE, because the seam
collapsed alarms to a bare minute count. TaskReminder carries the
anchor now
- registerObserver bound a live flow to whichever store was active at
subscription, so a Settings store switch left every screen listening to
the store it had stopped reading
Regression from deleting the provider. sync() gated on
providerResolver.resolve() != null, and OWN resolves to no provider by
design — so from that commit no due reminder was ever armed in what had
just become the default mode, and clearAll() cancelled any that survived
the upgrade.
The gate is now ProviderResolver.canReadStore(): OWN is always readable,
and only EXTERNAL can fail, for the two reasons it ever could. Putting
the decision on the resolver rather than inside the scheduler is what
makes it testable at all — ReminderScheduler needs Context and
AlarmManager, which is why nothing caught this.
Also brings ARCHITECTURE.md and ROADMAP.md in line with the branch: one
module, OWN/EXTERNAL, the four Room tables, expansion at read time, the
import and startup gate, and the manifest surface that no longer declares
a provider or any permission of its own.
The vendored dmfs provider was kept on the grounds that it hands us the
sync bookkeeping for free. The phase-1 sync audit measured that
bookkeeping and found most of it broken, absent, or unusable: _DIRTY not
set on delete, no home for a per-collection sync token, read-only
collections inexpressible, ACCOUNT_TYPE write-once so enabling sync is a
full migration, and cleanUpLists able to delete a user's lists after a
backup restore. Sixteen findings are provider-imposed rather than
platform- or protocol-imposed.
Costing the alternative showed the swap is far smaller than assumed.
TasksDataSource is already a 14-method, domain-shaped interface;
exactly one file above the data layer references TasksContract. The
work is a second implementation behind an interface built for it, not a
rewrite. Against ~5 weeks to build, owning the store removes 2.5-4
weeks from the sync plan, and 8,200 of the vendored 14,555 lines are
things we would never write - 23 migrations from a 2013 schema, 798
lines of full-text search the app has zero call sites for, and 1,581
lines of a type-safe layer over ContentValues that Room deletes.
External mode (OpenTasks, tasks.org) is unaffected and keeps every
file that describes somebody else's schema.
STORAGE-DECISION.md is the reasoning; OWN-STORE.md is the architecture
and the six-phase plan. :provider stays in-tree until phase 5 so
recurrence parity can be tested against it before it goes.
Also corrected here: the provider's JVM test count (51 -> 56, measured
from the test-results XML) and a fourth site of the debunked "switching
sync on is never a migration" claim, in StorageMode.kt.

STORAGE-AND-SYNC.md asked for a follow-up pass on ARCHITECTURE.md §7 and the
ProviderResolver KDoc, which still defined Posture B as "bundle OpenTasks and
find org.dmfs.tasks first" — the plan that was withdrawn as a dead end. That pass,
plus the status the doc left open.
ARCHITECTURE.md now describes the app as built: two modules, the storage-mode
table with the permission each needs, the autoMode rule and why it keys on
holding an external provider's permission, the two-not-three mode vocabulary, and
a manifest section that says what :provider contributes and what is deliberately
absent (GET_ACCOUNTS, INTERNET). §7 records squatting the dmfs authority as a
dead end rather than a road not yet taken, so it doesn't get re-proposed.
ROADMAP.md turns "Posture B, later" into what actually landed and lists what
didn't: the frontend surfaces, the DAVx5 issue, the sync adapter, and device
verification. Two open decisions resolved and struck through — the authority
choice, and recurrence-aware editing, which fix/provider-interaction-review made
stale.
STORAGE-AND-SYNC.md gets per-step status. Open question 3 ("does it work with no
account?") is answered, with the caveat that the test proving it is Robolectric
and skips on ARM64 — answered by construction, not yet on a device.
PLAN.md gets a banner. It's the original design document and still holds the
reasoning behind the layering, but two of its premises are overturned and it
should not be read as current.
README.md was telling users they need a tasks provider installed. They don't, and
that's the headline feature: a table of where tasks can live, that our provider
coexists with OpenTasks rather than replacing it, and that everything exports as
standard .ics.

Floret is promoted to the family / design-language (shared-kit) name; the
tasks app itself becomes Agendula (de.jeanlucmakiola.agendula) — agenda
('things to be done') + Calendula's -ula, a twin of the Calendula name.
Renames the package, namespace, applicationId, rootProject.name, app_name,
FloretApp/FloretNavHost/FloretTransitions classes, theme, F-Droid metadata
dir, CI artifact name, and docs. The botanical word 'florets' is preserved in
the name-origin prose, which is rewritten to Agendula's etymology. Clean
build + unit tests green.

Reminders onboarding & polish, plus the Settings screen (landed early).
- One-time reminder onboarding gate after the provider grant
(ReminderOnboardingScreen + OnboardingScaffold), requesting
POST_NOTIFICATIONS on API 33+; choice recorded in prefs.
- Settings screen, structured after Calendula as a category hub with
sliding sub-screens (CollapsingScaffold + grouped rows + full-screen
OptionPicker): About card, Appearance (theme, dynamic colour), Task
form (default edit-form fields, default list, add-a-subtask-row
opt-out), Reminders, Language, and Report a problem. Reached via an
expressive shaped action button (MaterialShapes.Cookie4Sided) on the
lists overview. Back from a sub-screen returns to the hub.
- Reminders: master enable toggle (gates the whole engine; re-requests
the notification permission), a default lead time with a Custom
amount/unit editor, an Android-12 exact-alarm status row, and
per-list overrides of the default (Inherit / None / custom lead),
honoured by ReminderScheduler per task.
- Per-app language (AppLanguage + locales_config.xml + appcompat
locales service); add-a-subtask-row opt-out wired into the task list.

M3 detail/edit polish:
- "Progress" slider on the edit form writes Tasks.PERCENT_COMPLETE (clamped
0-100, 5% detents); status stays owned by the complete toggle.
- Conflict-safe saves: updateTask re-checks the provider's last_modified against
the value captured when the form loaded and throws TaskConflictException; the
editor offers overwrite-or-cancel instead of clobbering an external change.
M4 subtasks (UI):
- Reparent: a "Parent task" picker files a task under any top-level task in its
list (or "None" to promote it); candidates stay top-level to keep nesting one
level deep. Switching list clears the now-invalid parent.
- Tapping a subtask opens its own detail (a new TaskDetail entry, own VM).
Tests: percent clamping, parent-id write, populatedFields reveal logic.
Docs: ROADMAP M2/M3/M4 reconciled to the codebase; CHANGELOG [Unreleased].

Replace the RootScreen nav stubs with a real NavHost. Each destination
binds its existing M1 ViewModel from route args.
- ui/navigation: Dest route table (string-based; no serialization plugin)
+ FloretNavHost (lists -> task list -> detail / edit).
- Base scaffolds for TaskListScreen, TaskDetailScreen, TaskEditScreen,
wired to their ViewModels — skeletons for the rich M2/M3 UI.
- RootScreen READY branch now hands off to FloretNavHost.
- Add navigation-compose 2.9.0; supporting strings.

Add a grounded doc set under docs/ plus a root CONTRIBUTING.md:
- docs/ARCHITECTURE.md: current code shape (layers, data seam, provider
resolution, reminder engine, DI, build/tooling, manifest)
- docs/ROADMAP.md: status view (M0/M1 done, M2 in progress, open decisions)
- docs/RELEASING.md: tag-driven release flow, CI jobs, F-Droid repo, secrets
(was referenced by build.gradle.kts and CHANGELOG but missing)
- docs/README.md: docs index and how the docs relate
- CONTRIBUTING.md: build/test/lint, layer rules, style, PR conventions
Also refresh the stale "M0 — skeleton" status note in README.
