+## Polish for release and Auth
+
+- Authentication isn't working if the user is in a different directory than expected. Store the auth token in a ~/.local directory so it's consistently availabe in every dir.
+- Setup scripts, look at popular modern python CLI or TUI projects and create an install or first run script that works for most scenarios, using `uv` or `pip` to install globally for users, or maybe get a homebrew installation to work? Get users to set up himalaya and khal and dstask but ask them for their choice once we have other backends available. 
+- Documentation files in the repo, and documentation site to publish.
