About
Atrium is a native Linux task manager that fuses Things 3 clarity with OmniFocus depth via a mode switch over a shared local-first data store. Pick Simple Mode for what-am-I-doing-right-now; switch to Builder Mode when you want full GTD review, deferral, sequential projects, and forecast. Same data, two surfaces, no migration. Storage is one SQLite file at $XDG_DATA_HOME/atrium/atrium.db, written by a single dedicated worker thread so the UI never blocks on I/O. The schema is the OmniFocus superset on day one: Simple Mode hides the Builder fields, it doesn't lack them. An optional Org-mode vault mirrors the database as round-trippable .org files so your data stays portable to Emacs, Logseq, or a pile of files in a git repo. Simple Mode features (v0.1): - Inbox · Today · Upcoming · Anytime · Someday · Logbook - Areas → Projects → Tasks hierarchy with multi-tag - Distinct When (scheduled-for) and Deadline dates - Quick Entry global modal (Ctrl+Alt+Space) - FTS5-backed search with filter expressions (tag:, is:, due:) - Multi-select bulk operations with undo (Ctrl+Z) - Find-as-you-type sidebar filter (Ctrl+L) - Keyboard-first: every common op bindable, mouse optional - Drag-reorder rows; drag tasks onto projects to file them - Local-first: no network, no telemetry, no accounts
