A yearly-repeating period kept the same calendar date instead of the same
weekday: 2026-10-05..10-11 (Mon-Sun) recurred as 2027-10-05..10-11 (Tue-Mon)
rather than 2027-10-04..10-10. The snap added in 224fe7a only ever covered
window_mode == 'fixed'; 'flexible' wishes were unaligned at both stages.
project_window now snaps both modes. A flexible bound is still a bounding
range, but it keeps its weekday alignment year over year with its span held
fixed, so the search space never shrinks and a bound that is exactly as long
as the target (its only candidate) repeats week-shaped.
_rank_candidate gains a Monday-start term between cost and start, so equal-cost
candidates break on week alignment instead of "earliest". It sits after cost
deliberately: a cheaper non-Monday start still wins, because red days outrank
alignment.
_reuse_already_funded_window would otherwise freeze a pre-existing misaligned
placement forever, so it now releases a year whose reuse winner is misaligned
when a fresh search ranks strictly better -- never when one of its days is
pinned or excluded, so a deliberate per-day override always survives.
Migration 008 realigns flexible series already materialised under the old rule;
projection runs once, at create/update, so nothing repairs them on read.
Alongside this, the planner now says when it moved a period to catch red days.
WindowOutcome carries shift_gain_days (the saving over the naive bound-start
placement) and the calendar toasts it, once, on the sync that decided it.
A fixed window is never auto-moved -- its "exact requested placement,
unconditionally" guarantee stands -- but its shift suggestion is no longer
hidden behind a shortfall, so a fully-funded one can surface a cheaper week too.
Editing a period in the popover now also sends window_mode: 'fixed' with a
matching target. Preset chips create flexible wishes; dragging one down to an
exact week left it flexible with a week-long bound, which is the degenerate
single-candidate case that produced the reported dates.

A repeating period was a single row that the planner expanded into one
window per year at read time, so no year had anywhere to differ from the
others. Editing one year rewrote them all, and removing a year in the
middle had to split the wish in two. Neither survives contact with the
thing this app is for: Easter moves, and the cheapest week is not the
same week every year.
Each year is now its own row, linked by a series id. Editing one year
touches one row; editing the series re-projects the rest from it.
Removing a year is one delete. The weekday snap is worked out once, when
the rows are made, and stored, so a row now says what it means rather
than being re-derived on every read. Recurrence stops being a stored
field and becomes what it always was in practice — an instruction at
create and update time; whether a period repeats is whether it belongs
to a series.
Migration 004 rebuilds the table and expands the existing rows, keeping
each original row as its first year so the days already planned against
it still point somewhere. A Feb 29 anchor recurring into a common year
used to raise out of the allocator; it clamps now.
