A personal task app with projects, recurring due dates, filters, and reminders is a one-sitting/weekend build; collaboration and sync polish are the product moat.

Build me a personal task manager to replace Todoist. Requirements:

- A local web app: Node + Express + better-sqlite3, server-rendered, binds to
  localhost only. Keyboard-first: n for new task, x to complete, / to search.
- Quick-add parses natural language with chrono-node: "call Sam tomorrow 4pm
  #home p2" sets due date, project, and priority in one line.
- Projects via #tags, priorities p1-p3, free-text notes on any task.
- Recurring tasks stored as rrule strings ("every 1st", "every mon,thu");
  completing one schedules the next occurrence.
- Views: Today, Upcoming (next 7 days grouped by day), and per-project. Overdue
  tasks pinned red at the top of Today.
- Reminders: node-cron checks each minute and pushes due tasks to my phone via ntfy
  (topic in .env), plus a 7am digest of today's list.
- A t add "..." CLI for capture from any terminal.
- No accounts, no telemetry, everything in one SQLite file I can back up.
- Out of scope: collaboration, native mobile apps, and offline sync. Phone access
  is ntfy notifications, that is the trade.
- README: ntfy app setup on the phone and where the DB lives.
