Lucas WintherandClaude Opus 5 a039176aa3 docs: prune TODO.md, and correct four claims that were no longer true
TODO.md becomes a TODO again: only work that is actually queued. Five of
its seven sections were finished work, and their reasoning has permanent
homes — the rules moved to AGENTS.md (the baked rates seed a new dataset
only, never a fallback), the rest is in the commit messages and the
specs. 215 lines to 131.

The four corrections, all of them things a reader would have believed:

- README said the install prompt could not work because the manifest
  "only ships an SVG icon". It has shipped 192x192 and 512x512 PNGs since
  f50c65b. Now stated as unverified rather than incomplete, which is what
  it actually is.
- TODO said no browser had seen the two rule-editing surfaces, while its
  own section 5 listed both as seen and confirmed.
- TODO said "merged to main" when the last three commits were on a
  branch.
- scripts/screenshot.ts explained its own existence by saying
  ARCHITECTURE.md and TODO.md claim no browser can run here. Both now say
  the opposite — partly because of that script.

ARCHITECTURE.md's gotchas section now says AGENTS.md holds the
enforceable form of those rules and this holds the mechanism, so a reader
hitting the overlap knows which is canonical.

# Budget 2.0
A personal budgeting PWA. Envelope-style monthly budgets with rollover, split
purchases, finance plans, multi-currency, and JSON/ODS export. All data lives in
your browser — there is no server and no account.
## Development
```bash
bun install
bun run dev # dev server with hot reload, on :3000
bun test # run the test suite
bun run build # production build into dist/
```
## Self-hosting with Docker
```bash
docker build -t budget2 .
docker run --rm -p 3000:3000 budget2
```
To serve from a subpath, build and run with `BUN_PUBLIC_BASE_PATH`:
```bash
docker build -t budget2 --build-arg BUN_PUBLIC_BASE_PATH=/budget/ .
docker run --rm -p 3000:3000 -e BUN_PUBLIC_BASE_PATH=/budget/ budget2
```
## GitHub Pages
Pushing to `main` builds and deploys to Pages automatically, using
`/<repository-name>/` as the base path. Enable Pages with "GitHub Actions" as
the source in the repository settings.
## Your data
Everything is stored in this browser's IndexedDB. **Export regularly** from
Settings → Your data: the JSON export is both your backup and how you move your
budget to another device.
Both destructive actions there — Import, and "Reset everything" — download a
backup of your current data before replacing it, and abort if that download
fails. Reset puts the app back to a brand-new install: the three starter posts,
the DKK/USD/EUR currency table, this month at zero income, no purchases.
## Known limitations
- **Data is per-browser.** There is no account and no sync. If you clear this
browser's site data, or move to a different browser or device, your budget is
gone unless you exported it first. The JSON export is not just a nice-to-have
backup — it is the only way to move a budget between devices.
- **Installing and offline use are unverified.** The manifest ships the SVG plus
192×192 and 512×512 PNG icons, and the service worker demonstrably installs,
activates and precaches every asset — but nobody has yet confirmed that Chrome
offers its "Install app" prompt, or loaded the app with the network actually
cut. It works as a regular tab regardless.
## Documentation
- `docs/ARCHITECTURE.md` — layers, data flow, and why the non-obvious choices are
what they are.
- `docs/PRODUCT.md` — who this is for and what must never break.
- `AGENTS.md` — the rules for changing this codebase, and the test that catches
each one when broken. `CLAUDE.md` and `GEMINI.md` point at it.
- `docs/TODO.md` — what is still queued.
- `docs/specs/` — one design document per piece of work, each
recording the alternatives that were rejected.
- `docs/plans/` — task-by-task implementation plans.
