Description

Fixes five bugs, found while testing the task detail page on a device (#659). Each bug has its own commit, so they can be reviewed separately.

1. TaskChampion credentials written to the logs (security)

Replica.sync() and the home refresh button printed the client id and encryption secret in plain text (encryptionSecret=…, Replica Credentials: c=… e=…). main() routes every debugPrint into the debug-log database, so the secret also appeared on the in-app Logs page as well as in logcat. Both lines now log only whether each value is set, for example Syncing Replica with url=… (clientId set: true, encryptionSecret set: true). I checked every place that reads credentials from CredentialsStorage, and no other one logs them.

Secrets logged by earlier builds stay in the Logs database until the user clears it. Related but separate: #645 (credentials stored unencrypted on disk).

2. "Hide Waiting" hid every task except waiting ones

The waiting filter is on by default, and its switch reads Hide Waiting while on. But _refreshTasks kept only tasks with a future wait date, so on a new local profile every ordinary task was hidden and newly added tasks seemed to vanish. The filter now leaves waiting tasks out instead, which matches the label and Taskwarrior's default. Partially addresses #592: this covers the local task list only, since the switch isn't shown in TaskChampion mode.

3. Home list showed times in UTC

age() and when() formatted the stored UTC DateTime directly, so the list showed e.g. 0s ago (03:47 PM) at 9:17 PM IST. They now convert to local time first. The relative part ("0s ago", "2w") was already correct.

4. Home-screen widget crashed in the nightly flavor

home_widget looks up the provider as <applicationId>.<name>. The nightly application id ends in .nightly, but TaskWarriorWidgetProvider is in the base package, so every widget update threw ClassNotFoundException. Both call sites now pass qualifiedAndroidName. WidgetController.updateWidget also returned the future without await inside its try, so the error escaped as an unhandled exception; it's now awaited.

5. Empty project saved as '', and project: in the description dropped

The local add-task path set project from the Project field after taskParser had run. An empty field saved '', shown as a blank project:. It also overwrote a project typed in the description, e.g. buy milk project:home. The TaskChampion and Replica paths already treated an empty field as no project; this path now does the same and keeps the parsed project.

Fixes

No issue number for most of these; they were found during device testing. Partially addresses #592; related to #645.

Testing

Unit tests added: isWaiting(), local-time formatting in age()/when(), and resolveProject(). The local-time tests only distinguish UTC from local time on a machine that isn't on UTC; they fail without the fix on an IST machine.

Full suite: 432 passing, 18 failing. The same 18 tests fail on unmodified main (MethodChannel/plugin tests in the headless VM and a known TaskDatabase issue); none were added or changed here. flutter analyze reports 64 issues, the same count as main.

Checked on a device (POCO X4 Pro 5G, nightly release build of this branch):

# What I did Result
1 Entered TaskChampion credentials (real sync, 156 tasks), then pressed refresh; searched the full logcat for both values 0 matches; log lines show clientId set: true, encryptionSecret set: true
2 Turned Hide Waiting on, added a task with a future wait date, then turned it off On: ordinary tasks shown, waiting task hidden. Off: waiting task shown as well
3 Compared list times with the device clock 40s ago (11:01 PM) at 11:01 PM; due time matches the time set
4 Launched and added a task in local mode, the two points that previously threw No widget errors
5 Added a task with an empty Project field and opened it project: Not Selected (was a blank project:)

CI note: CI is currently red on every branch, including main. android-actions/setup-android@v3 installs the tools package by default, and Google removed that package from its SDK repository between 2026-09-14 and 2026-09-15, so the job fails in the Android SDK setup step before anything here is built. A separate PR on fix/ci-setup-android-tools will fix that.

Checklist

  • Tests have been added or updated to cover the changes
  • Documentation has been updated to reflect the changes (not applicable)
  • Code follows the established coding style guidelines
  • All tests are passing: the new tests pass; the 18 failures listed above also fail on main

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Improvements
    • Waiting tasks are filtered more consistently.
    • Task creation now uses a project entered in the project field, or falls back to the project identified in the task description.
    • Task times display using the device’s local time.
    • Android widget updates handle errors more reliably.
  • Security
    • Sync and refresh logs no longer display client IDs or encryption secrets.

Replica.sync() printed both credentials in plain text on every sync.
debugPrint is persisted to the debug-log database by main(), so the
secret was visible on the in-app Logs page and in logcat. Log only the
server URL and whether each credential is set.

The waiting filter is on by default and its switch reads "Hide Waiting"
while on, but _refreshTasks kept only tasks with a future wait date.
On a new profile every ordinary task was therefore hidden, so newly
added tasks seemed to vanish. Leave waiting tasks out instead, matching
the label and Taskwarrior's default.

Extracts isWaiting() so the rule is unit-tested.

age() and when() formatted the time of day straight from the stored
DateTime, which is UTC, so the home list showed e.g. "0s ago (03:47 PM)"
at 9:17 PM IST. The relative part ("0s ago", "2w") was already right.
Convert to local time before formatting.

home_widget resolves the provider as "<applicationId>.<name>" unless a
qualified name is given. The nightly flavor's application id ends in
.nightly while TaskWarriorWidgetProvider lives in the base package, so
every widget update threw ClassNotFoundException. Pass the qualified
class name at both call sites.

The update in WidgetController was also returned without await inside
try, so the PlatformException escaped as an unhandled error; await it,
and catch errors from the fire-and-forget update in HomeController too.

…description

The local add-task path always set project to the Project field's text,
after taskParser had run. An empty field therefore saved project as ''
(shown as a blank project), and a project typed in the description
("buy milk project:home") was overwritten. The TaskChampion and Replica
paths already treated an empty field as no project.

Use the field when it has text, otherwise keep the parsed project.

The home refresh button printed the client id and encryption secret
("Replica Credentials: c=... e=...") on every press, the same leak as
Replica.sync(). Missed in the first pass because the values were in
one-letter variables. Log only whether each credential is set.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The changes update waiting-task filtering, project resolution during task creation, local-time formatting for task dates, Android widget updates, and Replica credential logging. Tests cover waiting classification, project resolution, and local-time formatting.

Changes

Waiting-task filtering

Layer / File(s) Summary
Apply the waiting predicate
lib/app/modules/home/controllers/home_controller.dart, lib/app/utils/taskfunctions/waiting.dart, test/utils/taskfunctions/waiting_test.dart
The waiting filter uses isWaiting to exclude tasks with a future wait date. Tests cover missing, future, and past wait dates.

Project resolution

Layer / File(s) Summary
Resolve project during task creation
lib/app/utils/taskfunctions/add_task_dialog_utils.dart, lib/app/modules/home/views/add_task_bottom_sheet_new.dart, test/utils/taskfunctions/resolve_project_test.dart
Task creation uses resolveProject to choose trimmed field text or fall back to the task’s parsed project. Tests cover empty fields and project precedence.

Local-time formatting

Layer / File(s) Summary
Format task times in local time
lib/app/utils/taskfunctions/datetime_differences.dart, test/utils/taskfunctions/datetime_differences_test.dart
age and when format dates after converting them to local time. Tests check formatted times from UTC timestamps.

Android widget updates

Layer / File(s) Summary
Use the qualified Android widget provider
lib/app/modules/home/controllers/widget.controller.dart, lib/app/modules/home/controllers/home_controller.dart
Widget updates use the fully qualified Android provider name. The update call is awaited, and update errors are logged and handled.

Replica credential logging

Layer / File(s) Summary
Log credential presence
lib/app/modules/home/views/home_page_app_bar.dart, lib/app/v3/champion/replica.dart
Replica refresh and sync logs report whether credentials are set instead of logging credential values.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~15 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to bafae

The sync log still records the full server URL. If that URL contains embedded credentials or tokens, they are kept in the app's stored logs. The other fixes appear correct, so this change is mergeable with a quick follow-up to log only whether the URL is set.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to bafae

The update reduces direct credential exposure and corrects widget targeting without an evidenced expansion of privileges. A pre-existing path can still record sensitive information embedded in a sync URL, and previously logged secrets are not removed automatically.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The evidenced exposure is to console output and the application's shared persistent logs, potentially containing messages from multiple local profiles. Disclosure requires a sensitive configured URL and access to a log-reading channel; a remotely exploitable path, broader service compromise, or additional privileges are not established.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • observed — The retained low-severity Security finding concerns the raw configured URL crossing into persistent logs without sanitization. That path and its effective exposure predate this PR; it is not retained as an active PR architecture concern. Whether it reveals credentials or tokens depends on the URL's contents.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — The changed log producers redact explicit client ID and encryption-secret values, but the global logger persists the message it receives without redaction. Separate credential fields and native sync validation before credential persistence are counterevidence to arbitrary credential placement, not proof that the stored URL is free of sensitive components.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • inferred — The widget's sendAndUpdate path orders data writes before its own refresh, but existing profile callbacks also launch a direct refresh without awaiting data preparation. Repetition or concurrency can therefore overlap publication of shared widget state. This caller topology predates the PR, and plugin-level ordering is unavailable, so no new cross-profile disclosure or security regression is established.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Consider omitting the sync URL from logs or logging only explicitly allowlisted endpoint metadata. Treat historical-log cleanup separately from forward redaction, with credential rotation where prior disclosure is confirmed.

Sensitive Data Exposure

Reachability: External
Exploitability: Difficult
CWE: CWE-532 — Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File

Do not log the raw Replica URL.

CredentialsStorage.getApiUrl() returns the complete stored value, and the credential form persists the URL without sanitizing it. A URL can therefore expose userinfo, path tokens, or query secrets in the persistent Logs database. Log only whether the URL is set or a sanitized origin.

Log URL presence instead of its value
-      debugPrint("Syncing Replica with url=$url "
-          "(clientId set: ${clientId?.isNotEmpty ?? false}, "
+      debugPrint("Syncing Replica "
