Build me a personal US-stock research cockpit to replace StocksBrew. Requirements: - Node 22 + Express + better-sqlite3 + node-cron, server-rendered pages on localhost:8090, no frontend framework. - watchlist.json holds my tickers; npm run refresh and a daily 7am cron pull end-of-day prices from Alpha Vantage (key in .env), filings from SEC EDGAR (no key needed), and items from a curated RSS list in sources.json. - Score each stock with transparent rules in one rules.js file (price vs 50/200-day average, new 10-K/10-Q/8-K filings, earnings-date proximity) and show an add/hold/trim stance with the exact rule hits that produced it. - Every summary line cites the filing or article URL and its timestamp; nothing uncited, nothing invented. - Alerts: per-ticker price threshold and earnings-date reminder, sent by email over SMTP creds in .env. - Rate-limit and cache all external calls (Alpha Vantage's free tier is 25 requests/day, plan the refresh around it), dedupe news items, and mark stale data visibly. - Dashboard: one watchlist table with price, stance, last-filing link, and next earnings date; one detail page per ticker with score history. - SQLite tables: tickers, price_snapshots, filings, news_items, scores, alerts. One file I can back up by copying it. - No accounts, no telemetry, everything local except the documented API calls. - Out of scope: intraday data, brokerage connections, trading, and editorial stock calls. Put a clear not-investment-advice notice in the README along with setup, API limits, and the cron line.

Why it still works
The visible app is reproducible; dependable, current investment research is a continuing data and operations problem.
