+RECURRENCE                                               *pending-recurrence*
+
+Tasks can recur on a schedule. Add a `rec:` token to set recurrence: >
+
+    - [ ] Take out trash due:monday rec:weekly
+    - [ ] Pay rent due:2026-03-01 rec:monthly
+    - [ ] Standup due:tomorrow rec:weekdays
+<
+
+When a recurring task is marked done with `<CR>`:
+1. The current task stays as done (preserving history).
+2. A new pending task is created with the same description, category,
+   priority, and recurrence — with the due date advanced to the next
+   occurrence.
+
+Shorthand patterns: ~
+
+    Pattern       Meaning ~
+    -------       -------
+    `daily`         Every day
+    `weekdays`      Monday through Friday
+    `weekly`        Every week
+    `biweekly`      Every 2 weeks (alias: `2w`)
+    `monthly`       Every month
+    `quarterly`     Every 3 months (alias: `3m`)
+    `yearly`        Every year (alias: `annual`)
+    `Nd`            Every N days (e.g. `3d`)
+    `Nw`            Every N weeks (e.g. `2w`)
+    `Nm`            Every N months (e.g. `6m`)
+    `Ny`            Every N years (e.g. `2y`)
+
+For patterns the shorthand cannot express, use a raw RRULE fragment: >
+    rec:FREQ=MONTHLY;BYDAY=1MO
+<
+
+Completion-based recurrence: ~                      *pending-recur-completion*
+By default, recurrence is schedule-based: the next due date advances from the
+original schedule, skipping to the next future occurrence. Prefix the pattern
+with `!` for completion-based mode, where the next due date advances from the
+completion date: >
+    rec:!weekly
+<
+Schedule-based is like org-mode `++`; completion-based is like `.+`.
+
+Google Calendar: ~
+Recurrence patterns map directly to iCalendar RRULE strings for future GCal
+sync support. Completion-based recurrence cannot be synced (it is inherently
+local).
