jchultarsky/mirador v0.7.0

0.7.0 - 2026-07-27

on GitHub

AI disclosure. mirador is built with heavy AI assistance: the
implementation, the tests and these release notes were written by Claude
(Anthropic) working from my direction and review. The product decisions — what
to build, what to leave out, what the thing is for — are mine. Noted here
because This Week in Rust asks that LLM authorship be disclosed, and because
anyone evaluating the code deserves to know how it was made.

Release Notes

Added

• An agenda panel, reading a local .ics file. The gap it fills was named
  early and left open for a long time: tasks are self-paced and a meeting is
  not, so a dashboard that could answer four questions and none of them was
  "you are in a call in ten minutes" was missing the one with a deadline.

  It is deliberately offline. mirador does not sign in to a calendar server —
  that means an account, a token to refresh, and a background process holding
  your credentials. Point [agenda].file at a calendar you already have and
  keep it current however you like; it is re-read on a timer and on r.

  Recurring events are expanded for the rules people actually have — daily,
  weekly with BYDAY, monthly, yearly, with INTERVAL, COUNT, UNTIL and
  EXDATE. Anything more elaborate shows only its first occurrence rather than
  guessing: a calendar that invents a meeting costs a wasted trip, where one
  that misses a repeat costs a glance at the real thing.

  Parsed in-tree with jiff, which mirador already has. icalendar and rrule
  would have added 30 crates and 2.3 MB to a 3.4 MB binary — measured — most
  of it chrono-tz carrying a second timezone database.

  An unconfigured panel says "No agenda file" and how to set one, in ordinary
  colours — that is a panel nobody has set up, not a fault. A file that exists
  and cannot be read is the fault, and says so.

  The default layout now places ten panels, so the last of them has no
  number to jump to; 1–9 covers the rest and Tab reaches everything. The
  bottom row is reordered so the pomodoro keeps the width its numerals need.
