feat: Calendar, News, Knowledge fixes, Voice STT fix, auto-refresh, chat improvements

Adds discussArticle() to BriefingApi and wires it through to the
RSS news cards in BriefingScreen so tapping Discuss opens a chat
conversation seeded with the article. Also caps RSS cards per
message at 3 to avoid overly long briefing threads.

 - **Daily Briefing** — the primary screen; opens on launch. Shows your AI-compiled morning digest (tasks, calendar, weather, RSS) with a full conversation you can reply to inline. Refresh manually or browse past briefings from the overflow menu.
 - **Quick Capture** — always-visible input bar above all tabs. Type a note or task and submit; multiple captures queue sequentially so the input is never blocked. Falls back to offline persistence when the server is unreachable.
-- **Library** — unified browsable list of notes, tasks, and projects with filter pills (All · Notes · Tasks · Projects). Tasks have a secondary status sub-filter and a tappable status icon to cycle todo → in progress → done without opening the editor. Inline search filters results live.
-- **Chat** — streaming AI conversations with real-time SSE display. Tap + to start a new conversation or open an existing one.
+- **Knowledge** — unified browsable feed of notes, people, places, lists, and tasks across six filter tabs. Tag filters, inline search (debounced), and two-tier pagination (ID list → batch hydration). Tasks load from `/api/tasks` directly and are fully integrated with the knowledge feed.
+- **Chat** — streaming AI conversations with real-time SSE display, including live tool-use status notifications (e.g. "Calling create_note…"). Tap + to start a new conversation or open an existing one.
+- **Calendar** — month strip + daily agenda view backed by the server's internal event store. Full event CRUD with a modal form: title, all-day toggle, start/end date+time pickers, repeat (None/Daily/Weekly/Monthly/Yearly), description, location, and colour chips. Custom RRULE strings are preserved read-only.
+- **News** — RSS article feed with per-feed filtering and reactions. Tap "Discuss" to open any article in a new chat conversation.
+- **Projects** — browse and edit projects; tap a project to see its milestone-grouped task list.
+- **Voice I/O** — tap the microphone in the capture bar or chat to dictate. Server-side STT transcribes audio; TTS reads assistant replies aloud in voice mode.
 - **Note & task editing** — full Markdown editor for notes, task editor with due date, priority, project, and milestone assignment.
 - **OAuth / SSO** — authenticates via your server's OIDC provider; local username/password login also supported if enabled server-side.
 - **Session persistence** — stays logged in across restarts via a persistent cookie jar.
+- **Auto-refresh** — data refreshes automatically when the app returns to the foreground (throttled to once per 5 minutes) and when switching between shell tabs.
 - **Auto-update** — checks your Forgejo releases on launch and prompts to download and install new APKs in-app.

+# Android Nav Restructure & Projects Staleness Fix Implementation Plan
+
+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
+
+**Goal:** Replace the Projects bottom-nav tab with a "More" bottom sheet giving access to Projects, News, and Calendar; fix stale task data when returning from task edit.
+
+**Architecture:** The shell's `_tabs` list shrinks from 4 to 3 entries; the 4th nav destination ("More") is intercepted in `onDestinationSelected` to show a `showModalBottomSheet` instead of navigating. Projects moves from a ShellRoute to a top-level push route. News and Calendar are added as stub push-routes. `_tabIndex` maps the three overflow paths to index 3 so "More" highlights correctly. The staleness fix moves the task-tap callback out of the stateless `_TaskRow` widget into the parent `ConsumerState` where `ref` is available, using `.then()` to invalidate after pop.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Flutter, GoRouter, Riverpod, Material 3

+| File | Action | What changes |
+|------|--------|-------------|
+| `lib/core/constants.dart` | Modify | Add `news` and `calendar` route constants |
+| `lib/app.dart` | Modify | Remove Projects from ShellRoute, add 3 push routes, shrink `_tabs`, add `_showMoreSheet`, update `_tabIndex`, update both nav widgets |
+| `lib/screens/library/project_tasks_screen.dart` | Modify | Add `onTap: VoidCallback` to `_TaskRow`; add `_openTask` method to state; pass callback at both call sites |
+
+---
+
+### Task 1: Add route constants
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `lib/core/constants.dart`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Add `news` and `calendar` to `Routes`**
+
+Open `lib/core/constants.dart`. The file currently ends with:
+```dart
+abstract class Routes {
+  static const splash = '/';
+  static const setup = '/setup';
+  static const login = '/login';
+  static const notes = '/notes';
+  static const noteDetail = '/notes/:id';
+  static const noteEdit = '/notes/:id/edit';
+  static const noteNew = '/notes/new';
+  static const tasks = '/tasks';
+  static const taskNew = '/tasks/new';
+  static const taskEdit = '/tasks/:id/edit';
+  static const knowledge = '/knowledge';
+  static const projects = '/projects';
+  static const projectEdit = '/projects/:id/edit';
+  static const conversations = '/chat';
+  static const chat = '/chat/:id';
+  static const quickCapture = '/quick-capture';
+  static const settings = '/settings';
+  static const briefing = '/briefing';
+  static const projectTasks = '/projects/:id/tasks';
+}
+```
+
+Add two constants after `briefing`:
+```dart
+abstract class Routes {
+  static const splash = '/';
+  static const setup = '/setup';
+  static const login = '/login';
+  static const notes = '/notes';
+  static const noteDetail = '/notes/:id';
+  static const noteEdit = '/notes/:id/edit';
+  static const noteNew = '/notes/new';
+  static const tasks = '/tasks';
+  static const taskNew = '/tasks/new';
+  static const taskEdit = '/tasks/:id/edit';
+  static const knowledge = '/knowledge';
+  static const projects = '/projects';
+  static const projectEdit = '/projects/:id/edit';
+  static const conversations = '/chat';
+  static const chat = '/chat/:id';
+  static const quickCapture = '/quick-capture';
+  static const settings = '/settings';
+  static const briefing = '/briefing';
+  static const news = '/news';
+  static const calendar = '/calendar';
+  static const projectTasks = '/projects/:id/tasks';
+}
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Verify no analysis errors**
+
+```bash
+cd /home/bvandeusen/Nextcloud/Projects/fabled_app
+flutter analyze lib/core/constants.dart
+```
+Expected: `No issues found!`
+
+---
+
+### Task 2: Restructure shell and add routes in `app.dart`
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `lib/app.dart`
+
+This task has several sub-steps. Make them all before running analyze.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Move Projects out of ShellRoute, add three push routes**
+
+Find the `ShellRoute` block (currently lines ~142–162):
+```dart
+      ShellRoute(
+        builder: (context, state, child) => _Shell(child: child),
+        routes: [
+          GoRoute(
+            path: Routes.briefing,
+            builder: (_, _) => const BriefingScreen(),
+          ),
+          GoRoute(
+            path: Routes.knowledge,
+            builder: (_, _) => const KnowledgeScreen(),
+          ),
+          GoRoute(
+            path: Routes.conversations,
+            builder: (_, _) => const ConversationsTabScreen(),
+          ),
+          GoRoute(
+            path: Routes.projects,
+            builder: (_, _) => const ProjectsScreen(),
+          ),
+        ],
+      ),
+```
+
+Replace with (Projects removed from shell; three new top-level routes added after the closing `],` of the ShellRoute):
+```dart
+      ShellRoute(
+        builder: (context, state, child) => _Shell(child: child),
+        routes: [
+          GoRoute(
+            path: Routes.briefing,
+            builder: (_, _) => const BriefingScreen(),
+          ),
+          GoRoute(
+            path: Routes.knowledge,
+            builder: (_, _) => const KnowledgeScreen(),
+          ),
+          GoRoute(
+            path: Routes.conversations,
+            builder: (_, _) => const ConversationsTabScreen(),
+          ),
+        ],
+      ),
+      GoRoute(
+        path: Routes.projects,
+        builder: (_, _) => const ProjectsScreen(),
+      ),
+      GoRoute(
+        path: Routes.news,
+        builder: (_, _) => Scaffold(
+          appBar: AppBar(title: const Text('News')),
+          body: const Center(child: Text('News — coming soon')),
+        ),
+      ),
+      GoRoute(
+        path: Routes.calendar,
+        builder: (_, _) => Scaffold(
+          appBar: AppBar(title: const Text('Calendar')),
+          body: const Center(child: Text('Calendar — coming soon')),
+        ),
+      ),
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Shrink `_tabs` from 4 to 3 entries**
+
+Find in `_ShellState`:
+```dart
+  static const _tabs = [
+    Routes.briefing,
+    Routes.knowledge,
+    Routes.conversations,
+    Routes.projects,
+  ];
+```
+
+Replace with:
+```dart
+  static const _tabs = [
+    Routes.briefing,
+    Routes.knowledge,
+    Routes.conversations,
+  ];
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Update `_tabIndex` to map overflow routes to index 3**
+
+Find:
+```dart
+  int _tabIndex(String location) {
+    for (var i = 0; i < _tabs.length; i++) {
+      if (location.startsWith(_tabs[i])) return i;
+    }
+    return 0;
+  }
+```
+
+Replace with:
+```dart
+  int _tabIndex(String location) {
+    for (var i = 0; i < _tabs.length; i++) {
+      if (location.startsWith(_tabs[i])) return i;
+    }
+    if (location.startsWith(Routes.projects) ||
+        location.startsWith(Routes.news) ||
+        location.startsWith(Routes.calendar)) return 3;
+    return 0;
+  }
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Add `_showMoreSheet` method to `_ShellState`**
+
+Add this method anywhere in `_ShellState`, e.g. just before `build`:
+```dart
+  void _showMoreSheet(BuildContext context) {
+    showModalBottomSheet<void>(
+      context: context,
+      builder: (_) => SafeArea(
+        child: Column(
+          mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min,
+          children: [
+            ListTile(
+              leading: const Icon(Icons.folder_outlined),
+              title: const Text('Projects'),
+              onTap: () {
+                Navigator.pop(context);
+                context.push(Routes.projects);
+              },
+            ),
+            ListTile(
+              leading: const Icon(Icons.newspaper_outlined),
+              title: const Text('News'),
+              onTap: () {
+                Navigator.pop(context);
+                context.push(Routes.news);
+              },
+            ),
+            ListTile(
+              leading: const Icon(Icons.calendar_month_outlined),
+              title: const Text('Calendar'),
+              onTap: () {
+                Navigator.pop(context);
+                context.push(Routes.calendar);
+              },
+            ),
+          ],
+        ),
+      ),
+    );
+  }
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Update `NavigationRail` — intercept index 3 and swap destination**
+
+Find in the wide-layout branch:
+```dart
+                    NavigationRail(
+                      selectedIndex: index,
+                      onDestinationSelected: (i) => context.go(_tabs[i]),
+                      labelType: NavigationRailLabelType.all,
+                      destinations: const [
+                        NavigationRailDestination(
+                          icon: Icon(Icons.wb_sunny_outlined),
+                          selectedIcon: Icon(Icons.wb_sunny),
+                          label: Text('Briefing'),
+                        ),
+                        NavigationRailDestination(
+                          icon: Icon(Icons.menu_book_outlined),
+                          selectedIcon: Icon(Icons.menu_book),
+                          label: Text('Knowledge'),
+                        ),
+                        NavigationRailDestination(
+                          icon: Icon(Icons.chat_bubble_outline),
+                          selectedIcon: Icon(Icons.chat_bubble),
+                          label: Text('Chat'),
+                        ),
+                        NavigationRailDestination(
+                          icon: Icon(Icons.folder_outlined),
+                          selectedIcon: Icon(Icons.folder),
+                          label: Text('Projects'),
+                        ),
+                      ],
+                    ),
+```
+
+Replace with:
+```dart
+                    NavigationRail(
+                      selectedIndex: index,
+                      onDestinationSelected: (i) {
+                        if (i == 3) {
+                          _showMoreSheet(context);
+                        } else {

+                      ],
+                    ),
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Update `NavigationBar` — intercept index 3 and swap destination**
+
+Find in the narrow-layout branch:
+```dart
+      bottomNavigationBar: NavigationBar(

+            label: 'Projects',
+          ),
+        ],
+      ),
+```
+
+Replace with:
+```dart
+      bottomNavigationBar: NavigationBar(
+        selectedIndex: index,
+        onDestinationSelected: (i) {
+          if (i == 3) {
+            _showMoreSheet(context);
+          } else {
+            context.go(_tabs[i]);
+          }
+        },
+        destinations: const [
+          NavigationDestination(
+            icon: Icon(Icons.wb_sunny_outlined),
+            selectedIcon: Icon(Icons.wb_sunny),

+            label: 'More',
+          ),
+        ],
+      ),

+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Verify no analysis errors**
+
+```bash
+cd /home/bvandeusen/Nextcloud/Projects/fabled_app
+flutter analyze lib/app.dart lib/core/constants.dart
+```
+Expected: `No issues found!`

+
+### Task 3: Fix stale tasks after returning from task edit
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `lib/screens/library/project_tasks_screen.dart`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Add `_openTask` method to `_ProjectTasksScreenState`**
+
+`_ProjectTasksScreenState` is a `ConsumerState` — it has `ref` and `context`. Find the class body (look for `_cycleStatus` method as a landmark) and add `_openTask` as a sibling method:
+
+```dart
+  void _openTask(int taskId) {
+    context
+        .push(Routes.taskEdit.replaceFirst(':id', '$taskId'))
+        .then((_) => ref.invalidate(projectTasksProvider(widget.projectId)));
+  }
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Add `onTap` parameter to `_TaskRow`**
+
+Find the `_TaskRow` class definition:
+```dart
+class _TaskRow extends StatelessWidget {
+  final Task task;
+  final TaskStatus effectiveStatus;
+  final VoidCallback onStatusTap;
+
+  const _TaskRow({
+    required this.task,
+    required this.effectiveStatus,
+    required this.onStatusTap,
+  });
+```
+
+Replace with:
+```dart
+class _TaskRow extends StatelessWidget {
+  final Task task;
+  final TaskStatus effectiveStatus;
+  final VoidCallback onStatusTap;
+  final VoidCallback onTap;
+
+  const _TaskRow({
+    required this.task,
+    required this.effectiveStatus,
+    required this.onStatusTap,
+    required this.onTap,
+  });
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Use the `onTap` callback in `InkWell`**
+
+Find inside `_TaskRow.build`:
+```dart
+      child: InkWell(
+        onTap: () => context
+            .push(Routes.taskEdit.replaceFirst(':id', '${task.id}')),
+```
+
+Replace with:
+```dart
+      child: InkWell(
+        onTap: onTap,
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Pass `onTap` at both `_TaskRow` call sites**
+
+There are two places in `_buildBody` where `_TaskRow` is instantiated. Update both:
+
+**First call site (milestone tasks, around line 170):**
+```dart
+                  return _TaskRow(
+                    task: task,
+                    effectiveStatus: _effectiveStatus(task),
+                    onStatusTap: () => _cycleStatus(task),
+                    onTap: () => _openTask(task.id),
+                  );
+```
+
+**Second call site (unassigned tasks, around line 197):**
+```dart
+                return _TaskRow(
+                  task: task,
+                  effectiveStatus: _effectiveStatus(task),
+                  onStatusTap: () => _cycleStatus(task),
+                  onTap: () => _openTask(task.id),
+                );
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Verify no analysis errors**
+
+```bash
+cd /home/bvandeusen/Nextcloud/Projects/fabled_app
+flutter analyze lib/screens/library/project_tasks_screen.dart
+```
+Expected: `No issues found!`
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add lib/screens/library/project_tasks_screen.dart
+git commit -m "fix: invalidate project tasks on return from task edit screen"
+```

+# Android News Screen Implementation Plan
+
+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
+
+**Goal:** Build the Android News screen — a paginated, feed-filtered list of RSS news items with reactions and a Discuss action that opens a new general chat conversation.
+
+**Architecture:** `NewsNotifier` (`AsyncNotifier<NewsState>`) holds the accumulated item list, pagination, reaction map, and selected feed. The screen is a `ConsumerStatefulWidget` at `/news`. Discuss calls `POST /api/chat/from-article/{id}` (same endpoint as web) and navigates to the returned conversation. Reactions reuse `briefingApiProvider`. The existing `NewsCard` widget is used unchanged via a `RssItemMeta.fromNewsItem` adapter factory.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Flutter, Riverpod AsyncNotifier, Dio, GoRouter, existing `NewsCard` widget
+

+        category: json['category'] as String?,
+      );
+}
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Write model tests**
+
+Add these groups to `test/widget_test.dart` (before the closing `}`):

+### Task 2: API layer
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `lib/data/api/news_api.dart`
+- Modify: `lib/data/api/chat_api.dart`
+- Modify: `lib/providers/api_client_provider.dart`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Create `NewsApi`**
+
+Create `lib/data/api/news_api.dart`:
+
+```dart
+import 'package:dio/dio.dart';
+
+import '../models/briefing_feed.dart';
+import '../models/news_item.dart';
+import 'api_client.dart';
+
+class NewsApi {
+  final Dio _dio;
+  const NewsApi(this._dio);
+
+  /// GET /api/briefing/news
+  /// Returns up to [limit] items starting at [offset], optionally filtered by [feedId].
+  Future<List<NewsItem>> getNewsItems({
+    int days = 90,

+          .toList();
+    } on DioException catch (e) {
+      throw dioToApp(e);
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Add `openArticleInChat` to `ChatApi`**
+
+In `lib/data/api/chat_api.dart`, add this method at the end of the `ChatApi` class (before the closing `}`):
+
+```dart
+  /// POST /api/chat/from-article/{itemId}
+  /// Creates or retrieves a chat conversation seeded with the article.
+  /// Returns the conversation_id.
+  Future<int> openArticleInChat(int itemId) async {

+      return data['conversation_id'] as int;
+    } on DioException catch (e) {
+      throw dioToApp(e);
+    }
+  }
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Add `newsApiProvider` to `api_client_provider.dart`**
+
+In `lib/providers/api_client_provider.dart`, add the import and provider.
+
+Add import after the existing API imports (e.g., after `voice_api.dart`):
+```dart
+import '../data/api/news_api.dart';
+```
+
+Add provider after `voiceRepositoryProvider`:
+```dart
+final newsApiProvider = Provider<NewsApi>((ref) {
+  return NewsApi(ref.watch(dioProvider));
+});
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Verify**
+
+```bash
+cd /home/bvandeusen/Nextcloud/Projects/fabled_app
+flutter analyze lib/data/api/news_api.dart lib/data/api/chat_api.dart lib/providers/api_client_provider.dart
+```
+
+Expected: `No issues found!`
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add lib/data/api/news_api.dart lib/data/api/chat_api.dart lib/providers/api_client_provider.dart
+git commit -m "feat: add NewsApi, openArticleInChat, and newsApiProvider"

+
+### Task 3: RssItemMeta adapter
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `lib/widgets/news_card.dart`
+
+`NewsCard` renders `RssItemMeta` objects. Rather than modifying the widget, we add a factory on `RssItemMeta` that converts a `NewsItem`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Add `fromNewsItem` factory**
+
+In `lib/widgets/news_card.dart`, add this import at the top:
+
+```dart
+import '../data/models/news_item.dart';
+```
+
+Then add this factory inside the `RssItemMeta` class, after the existing `fromJson` factory:
+
+```dart
+  factory RssItemMeta.fromNewsItem(NewsItem item) => RssItemMeta(
+        id: item.id,
+        title: item.title,
+        url: item.url,
+        source: item.source,
+        snippet: item.snippet,
+        publishedAt: item.publishedAt,
+      );
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Verify**
+
+```bash
+cd /home/bvandeusen/Nextcloud/Projects/fabled_app
+flutter analyze lib/widgets/news_card.dart
+```
+
+Expected: `No issues found!`
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add lib/widgets/news_card.dart

+
+### Task 4: Providers
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `lib/providers/news_provider.dart`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Create `news_provider.dart`**
+
+Create `lib/providers/news_provider.dart`:

+# Android Calendar Screen Design
+
+**Goal:** Build the Android Calendar screen — a month-strip + daily agenda view with full event CRUD (create, edit, delete) including a simple recurrence picker.
+
+**Architecture:** `CalendarNotifier` (`AsyncNotifier<CalendarState>`) holds a `Map<DateTime, List<CalendarEvent>>` keyed by date-only values, selected day, focused month, and loaded date range. The screen uses `table_calendar` for the month strip and a `ListView` for the daily agenda. Create/edit/delete is handled by `EventFormSheet`, a scrollable modal bottom sheet. The existing `/api/events` backend is used unchanged.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Flutter, Riverpod AsyncNotifier, Dio, GoRouter, `table_calendar` package
+

+## Files
+
+### New
+| File | Responsibility |
+|------|---------------|
+| `lib/data/models/calendar_event.dart` | `CalendarEvent` model + `fromJson` |
+| `lib/data/api/events_api.dart` | `getEvents`, `createEvent`, `updateEvent`, `deleteEvent` Dio calls |
+| `lib/providers/calendar_provider.dart` | `CalendarState`, `CalendarNotifier`, `calendarProvider` |
+| `lib/screens/calendar/calendar_screen.dart` | Calendar screen UI (month strip + agenda) |
+| `lib/screens/calendar/event_form_sheet.dart` | Create/edit modal bottom sheet |
+
+### Modified
+| File | Change |
+|------|--------|
+| `lib/providers/api_client_provider.dart` | Add `eventsApiProvider` |
+| `lib/app.dart` | Replace Calendar stub route with `CalendarScreen()` |
+| `test/widget_test.dart` | Add `CalendarEvent.fromJson` tests |
+| `pubspec.yaml` | Add `table_calendar` dependency |
+
+---
+
+## Data Model
+
+### `CalendarEvent`
+```dart
+class CalendarEvent {
+  final int id;
+  final String title;
+  final DateTime startDt;
+  final DateTime? endDt;
+  final bool allDay;
+  final String description;
+  final String location;
+  final String color;
+  final String? recurrence; // raw RRULE string, e.g. "FREQ=WEEKLY"
+  final int? projectId;
+  final int? reminderMinutes;
+}
+```
+
+`fromJson` maps: `id`, `title`, `start_dt` / `end_dt` (ISO string → `DateTime.parse`), `all_day`, `description`, `location`, `color`, `recurrence` (nullable), `project_id` (nullable), `reminder_minutes` (nullable).
+
+Date normalization helper — used throughout to build map keys:
+```dart
+DateTime dateOnly(DateTime dt) => DateTime(dt.year, dt.month, dt.day);
+```
+
+---
+
+## API Layer
+
+### `events_api.dart`
+
+```dart
+class EventsApi {
+  final Dio _dio;
+  const EventsApi(this._dio);
+
+  // GET /api/events?from=<iso>&to=<iso>
+  Future<List<CalendarEvent>> getEvents(DateTime from, DateTime to) async { ... }
+
+  // POST /api/events
+  Future<CalendarEvent> createEvent(Map<String, dynamic> payload) async { ... }
+
+  // PATCH /api/events/{id}
+  Future<CalendarEvent> updateEvent(int id, Map<String, dynamic> fields) async { ... }
+
+  // DELETE /api/events/{id}
+  Future<void> deleteEvent(int id) async { ... }
+}
+```
+
+All methods catch `DioException` and rethrow via `dioToApp(e)` (same pattern as `NewsApi`).
+
+### `api_client_provider.dart` addition
+```dart
+final eventsApiProvider = Provider<EventsApi>((ref) =>
+    EventsApi(ref.watch(dioProvider)));
+```
+
+---
+
+## State Management
+
+### `CalendarState`
+```dart
+class CalendarState {
+  final Map<DateTime, List<CalendarEvent>> eventsByDay; // keys: midnight local time
+  final DateTime selectedDay;
+  final DateTime focusedMonth;
+  final DateTimeRange loadedRange;
+}
+```
+
+### `CalendarNotifier extends AsyncNotifier<CalendarState>`
+
+- **`build()`**: fetches events for `[firstDayOfMonth - 1 month, lastDayOfMonth + 1 month]` for the current month; populates `eventsByDay`; sets `selectedDay` to today; sets `loadedRange` to the fetched range.
+
+- **`selectDay(DateTime day)`**: synchronous state update — updates `selectedDay` and `focusedMonth` to `DateTime(day.year, day.month)`. No API call.
+
+- **`loadMonth(DateTime month)`**: updates `focusedMonth`. If `month` is already within `loadedRange`, no-op (state update only). Otherwise fetches events for that month, merges new items into `eventsByDay`, extends `loadedRange`.
+
+- **`addEvent(CalendarEvent event)`**: inserts the event into `eventsByDay` under `dateOnly(event.startDt)`. Synchronous local mutation after successful API call.
+
+- **`updateEvent(CalendarEvent updated)`**: removes old entry by `id` from its old date bucket (scanned), inserts under `dateOnly(updated.startDt)`. Synchronous local mutation.
+
+- **`removeEvent(int id, DateTime date)`**: removes from `eventsByDay[dateOnly(date)]` by id. Synchronous local mutation.
+
+All three mutation methods accept the server-returned `CalendarEvent` — the screen calls the API first, then passes the result to the notifier.
+
+---
+
+## Screen Behaviour
+
+### `CalendarScreen` (`ConsumerStatefulWidget`)
+
+**AppBar**: title "Calendar".
+
+**Month strip** (`TableCalendar`):
+- Format: `CalendarFormat.month`
+- Selected day highlighted with primary color
+- Days with events show a dot indicator
+- `onDaySelected`: calls `notifier.selectDay(day)`
+- `onPageChanged`: calls `notifier.loadMonth(month)`
+
+**Agenda list** (`ListView.builder`):
+- Items: `state.eventsByDay[dateOnly(state.selectedDay)] ?? []`
+- Each `EventTile` shows: color dot, title, time string ("All day" if `allDay`, otherwise formatted start time)
+- Tap → opens `EventFormSheet` in edit mode
+- Empty: centered "No events" message
+
+**FAB** (`FloatingActionButton`): opens `EventFormSheet` in create mode with `startDt` pre-set to `selectedDay` at current time (rounded to nearest hour)
+
+**Initial loading**: `CircularProgressIndicator` centered. Error: message + "Retry" button calls `ref.invalidate(calendarProvider)`.
+
+---
+
+## Event Form Sheet
+
+### `EventFormSheet` (shown via `showModalBottomSheet(isScrollControlled: true, useSafeArea: true)`)
+
+Accepts `CalendarEvent? event` (null = create mode) and `DateTime? initialDate` (used in create mode).
+
+**Fields:**
+| Field | Widget | Notes |
+|-------|--------|-------|
+| Title | `TextField` | Required |
+| All-day | `SwitchListTile` | Hides time pickers when on |
+| Start date | `ListTile` → `showDatePicker` | |
+| Start time | `ListTile` → `showTimePicker` | Hidden when all-day |
+| End date | `ListTile` → `showDatePicker` | Optional, clearable |
+| End time | `ListTile` → `showTimePicker` | Hidden when all-day |
+| Repeat | `DropdownButton` | None / Daily / Weekly / Monthly / Yearly |
+| Description | `TextField` multiline | Optional |
+| Location | `TextField` | Optional |
+| Color | Row of `InkWell` color chips | 6 preset colors + clear (empty string) |
+
+**Repeat → RRULE mapping:**
+| UI value | RRULE stored |
+|----------|-------------|
+| None | `null` |
+| Daily | `FREQ=DAILY` |
+| Weekly | `FREQ=WEEKLY` |
+| Monthly | `FREQ=MONTHLY` |
+| Yearly | `FREQ=YEARLY` |
+
+Existing events with an unrecognized RRULE string (does not match the 5 patterns above) display "Custom (read-only)" and the dropdown is disabled. The raw RRULE is preserved unchanged on save.
+
+**Save flow:**

+# Android Nav Restructure & Projects Staleness Fix
+
+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
+
+**Goal:** Replace the Projects bottom-nav tab with a "More" bottom sheet that houses Projects, News, and Calendar; fix stale task data on the project tasks screen.
+
+**Architecture:** The shell's 4th nav item becomes a non-routing action — tapping it shows a `showModalBottomSheet` with the three overflow destinations. `_tabIndex()` maps `/projects`, `/news`, `/calendar` prefixes to index 3 so the "More" tab highlights correctly. News and Calendar are added as stub push-routes now; their real screens are built in subsequent passes. The staleness fix is a single `await` + `ref.invalidate` after returning from task edit.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Flutter, GoRouter, Riverpod, Material 3 `NavigationBar` / `NavigationRail`
+
+---
+
+## Scope
+
+Two independent changes in one pass:
+
+1. **Nav restructure** — `lib/app.dart`
+2. **Staleness fix** — `lib/screens/library/project_tasks_screen.dart`
+
+---
+
+## Design Details
+
+### 1. Nav Restructure (`lib/app.dart`)
+
+**Route changes:**
+- Remove `/projects` from the `ShellRoute` routes list.
+- Add three new top-level `GoRoute` entries (alongside the existing non-shell routes):
+  - `/projects` → `ProjectsScreen()` (moved from shell)
+  - `/news` → stub `Scaffold(body: Center(child: Text('News — coming soon')))`
+  - `/calendar` → stub `Scaffold(body: Center(child: Text('Calendar — coming soon')))`
+- Add route constants to `lib/core/constants.dart`: `news = '/news'`, `calendar = '/calendar'`
+
+**Shell tab list:**
+```dart
+static const _tabs = [
+  Routes.briefing,
+  Routes.knowledge,
+  Routes.conversations,
+];
+```
+(3 entries — "More" is index 3 but handled specially, not a route)
+
+**`_tabIndex()` update:**
+```dart
+int _tabIndex(String location) {
+  for (var i = 0; i < _tabs.length; i++) {
+    if (location.startsWith(_tabs[i])) return i;
+  }
+  // Projects, News, Calendar all highlight "More"
+  if (location.startsWith(Routes.projects) ||
+      location.startsWith(Routes.news) ||
+      location.startsWith(Routes.calendar)) return 3;
+  return 0;
+}
+```
+
+**`onDestinationSelected` update (both `NavigationBar` and `NavigationRail`):**
+```dart
+onDestinationSelected: (i) {
+  if (i == 3) {
+    _showMoreSheet(context);
+  } else {
+    context.go(_tabs[i]);
+  }
+},
+```
+
+**`_showMoreSheet` method on `_ShellState`:**
+```dart
+void _showMoreSheet(BuildContext context) {
+  showModalBottomSheet<void>(
+    context: context,
+    builder: (_) => SafeArea(
+      child: Column(
+        mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min,
+        children: [
+          ListTile(
+            leading: const Icon(Icons.folder_outlined),
+            title: const Text('Projects'),
+            onTap: () {
+              Navigator.pop(context);
+              context.push(Routes.projects);
+            },
+          ),
+          ListTile(
+            leading: const Icon(Icons.newspaper_outlined),
+            title: const Text('News'),
+            onTap: () {
+              Navigator.pop(context);
+              context.push(Routes.news);
+            },
+          ),
+          ListTile(
+            leading: const Icon(Icons.calendar_month_outlined),
+            title: const Text('Calendar'),
+            onTap: () {
+              Navigator.pop(context);
+              context.push(Routes.calendar);
+            },
+          ),
+        ],
+      ),
+    ),
+  );
+}
+```
+
+**4th nav destination label:** "More" with `Icons.more_horiz_outlined` / `Icons.more_horiz`.
+
+**NavigationRail note:** The wide-layout rail also gets the same 4 destinations and the same intercept on `onDestinationSelected`.
+
+---
+
+### 2. Projects Staleness Fix (`lib/screens/library/project_tasks_screen.dart`)
+
+**Current (line ~321):**
+```dart
+context.push(Routes.taskEdit.replaceFirst(':id', '${task.id}'));
+```
+
+**Fixed:**
+```dart
+await context.push(Routes.taskEdit.replaceFirst(':id', '${task.id}'));
+ref.invalidate(projectTasksProvider(widget.projectId));
+```
+
+This re-fetches tasks as soon as the user pops back from the task edit screen, eliminating stale data.
+
+---
+
+## What This Does NOT Include
+
+- Real News screen implementation (separate spec/pass)
+- Real Calendar screen implementation (separate spec/pass)
+- Any changes to the web frontend

+# Android News Screen Design
+
+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
+
+**Goal:** Build the Android News screen — a paginated, filterable list of RSS news items with reactions and a Discuss action that opens a new general chat conversation.
+
+**Architecture:** A `NewsNotifier` (`AsyncNotifier`) holds the full accumulated item list, pagination state, and selected feed ID. The screen is a `ConsumerStatefulWidget` accessed via the More bottom sheet at `/news`. Discuss uses `POST /api/chat/from-article/{id}` (same endpoint as the web) so any backend behaviour change is automatically reflected. Reactions reuse the existing `briefingApiProvider` methods. The existing `NewsCard` widget is used without modification.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Flutter, Riverpod AsyncNotifier, Dio, GoRouter, existing `NewsCard` widget

+## Files
+
+### New
+| File | Responsibility |
+|------|---------------|
+| `lib/data/models/news_item.dart` | `NewsItem` model + `fromJson` |
+| `lib/data/models/briefing_feed.dart` | `BriefingFeed` model + `fromJson` |
+| `lib/data/api/news_api.dart` | `getNewsItems(...)` and `getFeeds()` API calls |
+| `lib/providers/news_provider.dart` | `NewsNotifier`, `NewsState`, `newsProvider`, `feedsProvider` |

+|------|--------|
+| `lib/data/api/chat_api.dart` | Add `openArticleInChat(int itemId) → Future<int>` |
+| `lib/providers/api_client_provider.dart` | Add `newsApiProvider` |
+
+---
+
+## Data Models
+
+### `NewsItem`
+```dart
+class NewsItem {
+  final int id;
+  final String title;
+  final String url;
+  final String snippet;
+  final String source;
+  final DateTime? publishedAt;
+  final List<String> topics;
+  final String? reaction; // 'up' | 'down' | null
+}
+```
+`fromJson` maps: `id`, `title`, `url`, `snippet`, `source`, `published_at` (nullable ISO string → `DateTime.tryParse`), `topics` (cast `List<dynamic>` → `List<String>`), `reaction` (nullable string).
+
+### `BriefingFeed`
+```dart
+class BriefingFeed {
+  final int id;
+  final String title;
+  final String url;
+  final String? category;
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## API Layer
+
+### `news_api.dart`
+
+```dart
+class NewsApi {
+  final Dio _dio;
+  const NewsApi(this._dio);
+
+  // GET /api/briefing/news
+  Future<NewsItemsResponse> getNewsItems({
+    int days = 90,
+    int limit = 40,
+    int offset = 0,
+    int? feedId,
+  }) async { ... }
+
+  // GET /api/briefing/feeds
+  Future<List<BriefingFeed>> getFeeds() async { ... }
+}
+
+class NewsItemsResponse {
+  final List<NewsItem> items;
+  final int offset;
+  final int limit;
+}
+```
+
+### `chat_api.dart` addition
+```dart
+// POST /api/chat/from-article/{itemId}
+// Returns conversation_id
+Future<int> openArticleInChat(int itemId) async { ... }
+```
+
+### `api_client_provider.dart` addition
+```dart
+final newsApiProvider = Provider<NewsApi>((ref) =>
+    NewsApi(ref.watch(dioProvider)));
+```
+
+---
+
+## State Management
+
+### `NewsState`
+```dart
+class NewsState {
+  final List<NewsItem> items;
+  final int offset;
+  final bool hasMore;
+  final bool loadingMore;
+  final int? selectedFeedId;
+  final Map<int, String?> reactions; // item id → 'up'|'down'|null
+}
+```
+
+### `NewsNotifier extends AsyncNotifier<NewsState>`
+- `build()`: fetches first page (offset=0, no feed filter); initialises `reactions` from `item.reaction` on each item
+- `loadMore()`: appends next page; no-op if `loadingMore` or `!hasMore`; sets `loadingMore = true` optimistically; on error shows snackbar (error returned to caller, not thrown into AsyncError)
+- `setFeed(int? feedId)`: resets `items`, `offset`, `hasMore`, `reactions`; sets `selectedFeedId`; triggers `build()`-equivalent reload via `state = AsyncLoading()` + fetch
+- `toggleReaction(int itemId, String reaction)`: optimistic toggle in `reactions` map; calls `briefingApi.postRssReaction` or `deleteRssReaction`; reverts on error
+
+### `feedsProvider extends AsyncNotifier<List<BriefingFeed>>`
+- `build()`: fetches once; cached for the session (no invalidation needed — feeds rarely change)
+
+---
+
+## Screen Behaviour
+
+### `NewsScreen` (`ConsumerStatefulWidget`)
+
+**AppBar**: title "News", subtitle "Last 90 days"
+
+**Feed filter row** (below app bar, above list): `DropdownButton` with "All feeds" option + one entry per feed. On change calls `ref.read(newsProvider.notifier).setFeed(id)`.
+
+**List**: `ListView.builder` of `NewsCard` widgets. Each `NewsCard` receives:
+- `item`: `RssItemMeta.fromNewsItem(item)` — a thin adapter since `NewsCard` already uses `RssItemMeta`
+- `reaction`: `newsState.reactions[item.id]`
+- `onReaction`: calls `notifier.toggleReaction`
+- `onDiscuss`: calls `_handleDiscuss(item.id)`
+
+**Load more**: `ListTile` / `FilledButton.tonal` at the bottom — shows "Load more" when `hasMore && !loadingMore`, spinner when `loadingMore`, hidden when `!hasMore`.
+
+**Initial loading**: `CircularProgressIndicator` centered. Error state shows message + "Retry" button that calls `ref.invalidate(newsProvider)`.
+
+**Discuss flow** (`_handleDiscuss`):
+1. Track `_openingChat = {itemId}` in local `setState` (disables that card's button while in flight)
+2. Call `chatApi.openArticleInChat(itemId)`
+3. On success: `context.push(Routes.chat.replaceFirst(':id', '$conversationId'))`
+4. On error: show snackbar "Failed to open article in chat."
+5. Always: remove from `_openingChat`
+
+---
+
+## `RssItemMeta` Adapter
+
+`NewsCard` currently consumes `RssItemMeta` (from `news_card.dart`). Add a factory on `RssItemMeta`:
+```dart
+factory RssItemMeta.fromNewsItem(NewsItem item) => RssItemMeta(
+  id: item.id,
+  title: item.title,
+  url: item.url,
+  source: item.source,
+  snippet: item.snippet,
+  publishedAt: item.publishedAt,
+);
+```
+This keeps `NewsCard` unchanged and avoids coupling the widget to a second model type.
+
+---
+
+## What This Does NOT Include
+
+- Feed management (add/remove/refresh feeds) — that is a Settings concern
+- Offline caching
+- Pull-to-refresh (load-more button is sufficient for the initial pass)
