For the curious, I have a large directory of Markdown notes. In any note, I can add a task: “ - [ ] Follow up with Lacey 📅 2025-01-13” I have built some Python code that lets me query the directory for tasks, update them, complete them, etc. The directory is synced to all my devices.

@jonathan very cool! I've been thinking about trying to do something similar in parsing contents of markdown files, but more for notes management and cross-linking.
I'm curious, how do you handle files being renamed or moved, or is that not an issue with your use case?
