Document lessons learned from chime-org-contacts.el development about
preventing parenthesis errors in Emacs Lisp code.
Key Topics:
- AI code generation strategies (small functions, immediate testing)
- Human developer tools (paredit, smartparens, rainbow-delimiters)
- Real-world case study from chime-org-contacts.el refactoring
- Tools and workflow summary table
Problem Identified:
Both AI and humans struggle with deeply nested Emacs Lisp functions
due to difficulty counting parentheses manually.
Solution Documented:
Break complex functions into small (< 15 line) helpers:
- Easier to verify correctness
- Easier to test independently
- Self-documenting through clear function names
- AI and humans both succeed
Tools Referenced:
- Structural editing: paredit, smartparens, lispy
- Real-time validation: flycheck, flymake
- Visual aids: rainbow-delimiters-mode
- CI/CD: pre-commit hooks with check-parens
This section serves as permanent reference for future Emacs Lisp
development in this repository and others.

Created emacs-inbox-zero session definition and validated it by
executing the workflow. Processed 5 inbox items to zero in 10 minutes.
Session Framework:
- Created docs/sessions/ directory for session definitions
- Added create-session.org (meta-workflow for creating sessions)
- Added emacs-inbox-zero.org (weekly inbox processing workflow)
- Updated NOTES.org with terminology and session tracking
Inbox Zero Results:
- Deleted 1 duplicate task (chime fix)
- Moved 2 to Method 1: org-capture performance [#B], EMMS keybindings [#D]
- Moved 2 to someday-maybe: dashboard icons, persistence files
- Recognized perfectionism pattern (V2MOM Obstacle #4)
Learnings captured in living documents:
- Save Q&A answers incrementally during session creation
- Capture useful context during triage (impact estimates, theories)
- Validation by execution catches what theory misses
Files reorganized:
- Renamed docs files to UPPERCASE for consistency
- Removed SESSION-HANDOFF-ACTIVE-PROJECT.org (replaced by NOTES.org)
V2MOM Metrics fulfilled:
- Weekly triage consistency: ✓ (2025-11-01)
- Active todo count: 29 items (working toward < 20)

This commit fixes timing issues with chime.el startup and simplifies
configuration after chime.el's validation improvements.
## Changes
**1. Fixed org-agenda lazy loading issue**
- Added `:demand t` to org-agenda use-package
- Ensures org-agenda loads before chime tries to use it
- Prevents "org-agenda not available" errors
**2. Cleaned up duplicate rebuild hooks**
- Removed duplicate emacs-startup-hook with idle-timer
- Kept single emacs-startup-hook for rebuild
- Simpler, more maintainable configuration
**3. Simplified chime configuration**
- Restored `(chime-mode 1)` in use-package :config
- Removed conditional fboundp check (no longer needed)
- Works with chime.el's new deferred validation
- Fixed `:after` clause (removed org-agenda dependency)
**4. Fixed formatting issues**
- Removed stray 's' character in add-hook indentation
- Consistent indentation throughout
## Integration with chime.el v0.6.0
This commit pairs with chime.el's new features:
- chime-startup-delay (default 10 sec) gives rebuild hook time to run
- Validation moved to first check (no startup blocking)
- Clean user experience with no false warnings
## Timeline
```
Time 0s: Emacs starts
Time 0s: org-agenda loads (:demand t)
Time 0s: chime-mode 1 (starts timer, no validation)
Time 0.1s: emacs-startup-hook → rebuild org-agenda-files
Time 10s: First chime-check → validates, finds events
Time 24s: Modeline populated with events
```
**Result:** 24 second startup (vs previous 463 seconds - 95% improvement)

The previous commit incorrectly moved deadgrep to 'D', which conflicts
with the important dired-do-delete command (immediate delete of marked
files). This commit moves deadgrep to 'G' instead.
## Changes
**prog-general.el:**
- Move cj/deadgrep-here from 'D' to 'G' (was dired-do-chgrp, rarely used)
**dirvish-config.el:**
- Updated Commentary to document both 'D' and 'G' keybindings
- 'D' remains dired-do-delete (standard dired immediate delete)
- 'G' is now deadgrep search
## Final Keybinding Map
| Key | Binding | Purpose |
|-----|-------------------------------|--------------------------------|
| d | cj/dirvish-duplicate-file | Duplicate with "-copy" suffix |
| D | dired-do-delete | Delete marked files (standard) |
| g | dirvish-quick-access | Quick directory menu |
| G | cj/deadgrep-here | Search with deadgrep |
Capital G is mnemonic for "Grep" and doesn't conflict with important
dired commands. dired-do-chgrp is rarely used and not a loss.

This commit adds a convenient file duplication function to dirvish and
reorganizes keybindings to avoid conflicts.
## Changes
**1. New function: cj/dirvish-duplicate-file (dirvish-config.el:150)**
Duplicates the file at point with "-copy" suffix before the extension:
- report.pdf → report-copy.pdf
- script.el → script-copy.el
- README → README-copy
Features:
- Prevents duplicating directories (files only)
- Checks if target exists and prompts to overwrite
- Refreshes buffer automatically after copying
- Shows clear message with old and new names
**2. Keybinding changes**
dirvish-config.el:
- Bound 'd' to cj/dirvish-duplicate-file (was dired-flag-file-deletion)
- Updated Commentary section to document new binding
prog-general.el:
- Moved cj/deadgrep-here from 'd' to 'D' (capital D)
- More mnemonic: D for Deadgrep
- Avoids conflict with new duplicate function
## Rationale
The 'd' key is prime real estate in file managers, and duplicating files
is a very common operation. The standard dired-flag-file-deletion is still
available via 'x' or the mark-and-delete workflow.
Deadgrep on 'D' is more discoverable (capital D for Deadgrep) and less
likely to be pressed accidentally.
## Usage
In dirvish, navigate to a file and press:
- 'd' - Duplicate file with "-copy" suffix
- 'D' - Search with deadgrep in current directory

This commit establishes a pattern for organizing debug code in separate
files that can be enabled/disabled via a central toggle.
## Changes
**1. Added debug toggle to user-constants.el**
New variable `cj/debug-modules` controls which modules load debug functions:
- Set to nil (default): No debug functions loaded
- Set to list of symbols: Load debug for specific modules
Example: (setq cj/debug-modules '(org-agenda mail))
- Set to t: Load all debug modules
Example: (setq cj/debug-modules t)
Placed early in user-constants.el so it's available before other modules load.
**2. Created org-agenda-config-debug.el**
New debug file contains:
- `cj/org-agenda-debug-dump-files` - Shows all org-agenda-files with status,
file sizes, and modification times
- `cj/org-agenda-debug-rebuild-timing` - Measures rebuild performance and
reports detailed timing statistics
- `cj/log-silently` - Helper function to write to *Messages* without echo
All functions use ;;;###autoload for easy invocation before explicit loading.
**3. Added conditional require to org-agenda-config.el**
Checks `cj/debug-modules` and conditionally loads org-agenda-config-debug.el:
```elisp
(when (or (eq cj/debug-modules t)
(memq 'org-agenda cj/debug-modules))
(require 'org-agenda-config-debug ...))
```
## Benefits
**Cleaner separation of concerns:**
- Production code stays in main config files
- Debug code isolated in *-debug.el files
- Easy to enable/disable debugging per module
**Reusable pattern:**
- Can be applied to any config module (mail, chime, etc.)
- Consistent naming: <module>-debug.el
- Consistent namespace: cj/<module>-debug-*
**Zero overhead when disabled:**
- Debug files not loaded unless explicitly enabled
- No performance impact on normal usage
## Usage
To enable org-agenda debug functions:
```elisp
;; In user-constants.el or early-init.el
(setq cj/debug-modules '(org-agenda))
```
Then restart Emacs and run:
- M-x cj/org-agenda-debug-dump-files
- M-x cj/org-agenda-debug-rebuild-timing

Update configuration to use renamed chime variables:
- chime-modeline-lookahead → chime-modeline-lookahead-minutes
- Update comment referencing chime-tooltip-lookahead-hours
These variables were renamed in chime.el commit 2a89893
(feat: comprehensive test improvements and lookahead refactoring).
Fixes issue where modeline wasn't displaying after Emacs restart
because the old variable name had no effect.

Add a function to automatically save all org-gcal files after
synchronization completes. This ensures that any changes are
persisted, enhancing data consistency. Advise
`org-gcal--sync-unlock` to trigger auto-saving upon sync completion.
|
|
Remove user confirmation and file listing prompt. Simplify the
script by directly deleting .eln and .elc files in the specified
location and confirming completion.
|
|
Remove unnecessary blank lines in function docstrings to enhance
readability. Update chime package settings to use a local version
instead of the latest from GitHub, and adjust modeline lookahead and
tooltip settings for better event visibility.

Document key lessons from chime.el timestamp refactoring project:
## New Sections Added
**Test Future-Proofing & Time-Based Testing**
- Dynamic timestamp generation patterns and benefits
- Never hardcode dates in tests - use relative time helpers
- Mock time via function substitution (with-test-time pattern)
- Code examples showing before/after patterns
**Large-Scale Test Refactoring Strategy**
- Strategic planning: tackle biggest challenges first
- Execution approach: maintain 100% pass rate throughout
- Project management: track progress visibly, celebrate milestones
- Know when you're done: not all files need changes
**Real-World Example**
- chime.el project: 23 files, 339 tests
- 16 files refactored (251 tests), 7 files skipped (88 tests)
- 100% pass rate maintained across all refactoring
- Result: future-proof test suite that never expires
## Key Insights
- "Tackle biggest challenge first" eliminates intimidation
- Work in batches but commit individually for clean history
- Don't let perfectionism create unnecessary work
- Strategic approach builds momentum and confidence
Added "Hardcoded dates in tests" to Red Flags section.
These lessons capture the methodology that successfully completed
the hardest refactoring task in the project.
