`dt.UTC` is a 3.11+ alias, but crdt-sync declares requires-python = ">=3.10"
and the CI matrix tests 3.10 — so `crdt-sync tests` has been failing on the
3.10 leg since before this branch (commit 493db693 failed the same way).
It collected as `AttributeError: module 'datetime' has no attribute 'UTC'`.
This is not only a test problem: `_firebase_auth._utcnow()` is library code,
so on 3.10 every token-expiry check would have raised at runtime. The three
consumers (diet-guard, screen-locker, wake-alarm) all declare >=3.10 too, so
honouring the floor is the right direction rather than raising it.
`dt.UTC is dt.timezone.utc` evaluates to True — the same singleton under two
spellings — so this is a pure rename with no behaviour change.
Verified on a real pyenv 3.10.16 venv, not just the 3.14 dev interpreter:
239 passed.

Extracts the three-method remote surface GitHub was reached through into a
`RemoteStore` interface, then implements it against Firebase Realtime
Database over REST, so apps can move backend with a constructor change.
Why REST and not the SDKs: official FlutterFire has no Linux desktop
support, and `wake_alarm`'s PC side is a dependency-free systemd job. The
RTDB REST endpoints are plain HTTPS and behave identically on Linux,
Android and headless. Firebase is a transport, never the datastore -- each
app keeps its local log as the source of truth, so offline-first survives.
Why RTDB and not Firestore: on the Spark plan RTDB bills only storage and
bandwidth with no per-operation quota, so a runaway loop cannot exhaust a
daily budget and silently stop syncing mid-day.
Two savings make the no-cost tier a guarantee rather than a hope. Measured
against the GitHub-backed history this replaces: 4894 of 5542 commits
(88.3%) were byte-identical no-ops, and every tick re-downloaded every
peer's whole log. Both are now driven by one sha256 revision -- an
unchanged log is not re-pushed, and an unchanged peer is not re-fetched.
That turns egress from "ticks x log size" (~700 MB/month, and growing with
the log) into "edits" (~40 MB/month against a 10 GiB cap).
Revisions are one node per device, written only by its owner, rather than
one shared map -- a whole-map write would erase every peer's entry, after
which those peers would look permanently unchanged and never be fetched
again. Per-device keys make that impossible rather than merely avoided.
`.` is illegal in an RTDB key and the REST `.json` is a format suffix, so
paths get a reversible `~XX` escape (`log.json` -> `log~2Ejson`). Lossy
extension-stripping would break `todo`, whose listings return filenames.
`MirrorStore` / `MirrorSyncClient` dual-writes during the cutover. Reads
consult *both* backends: with primary-only reads a migrated device would
never see an un-migrated peer's writes while still mirroring its own back
-- silent one-directional convergence with no error raised. Writes are
asymmetric on purpose: a primary failure fails the tick, a mirror failure
is logged and survived.
Auth is Firebase email/password over identitytoolkit REST, with mandatory
refresh-token rotation. No service-account key anywhere: it would bypass
the security rules and is trivially extractable from an APK.
Verified live against a real database, not only mocks: sign-in and refresh,
key escaping round-tripping byte-for-byte, an unchanged tick writing
nothing, two devices converging, a revoked session throwing rather than
returning null, and a log written by the Python client being read by the
Dart one.
No app is migrated by this commit; every app still runs on GitHub.
Dart: 194 tests. Python: 203 tests at 100% branch coverage. No lint
suppressions added.
