+## KC-54 — Timed recurring tasks vanish from Today once their time passes
+
+**Status:** Fixed (not build-verified)
+**Reported by:** User (screenshots: Calendar day view showed "Look into DPO
+certificate" 11 AM and "Read Azure 104" 5 PM; neither appeared anywhere in the
+Today tab — not in Today, not in Overdue, not in Completed)
+
+### Root cause
+Two rules interacted badly for **recurring** tasks:
+- `todayTasks` deliberately excludes timed tasks whose time has passed today
+  ("belongs in overdue, not today").
+- `overdueTasks` deliberately excludes ALL recurring tasks (`!recurs($0)`),
+  because it feeds `postpone`/`postponeAllOverdue`, which mutate a task's
+  `dueDate` directly by id — for a recurring task that field is the
+  **recurrence rule's anchor date**, not just "today's occurrence." Including
+  recurring occurrences there would let "Postpone All" shift/corrupt the whole
+  series.
+
+Net effect: once a recurring task's today-occurrence time passed, it was
+excluded from Today (rule 1) but never picked up by Overdue (rule 2) — it fell
+into a gap and disappeared from the Today tab entirely, while Calendar's day
+view (`occurrences(on:)`, which has no time-of-day gating) kept showing it
+normally. Not a display bug — real data was correctly stored, just not
+surfaced.
+
+### Fix
+`todayTasks`' "past time → excluded" rule now only applies to non-recurring
+tasks (`!$0.isRecurring`). A recurring task's today-occurrence always stays in
+Today regardless of time — matching what Calendar already shows, and avoiding
+the postpone/recurrence-anchor risk entirely (recurring rows are never routed
+through `overdueTasks`). One-line, additive filter change; `activeRows()` /
+`occurrenceCopy` already preserve `isRecurring` on the occurrence copy.
+
+Files: `TaskItem.swift`.
