Authorization
On first use, run status --authorize to trigger the macOS permission prompt:
uv run scripts/calctl.py status --authorize
uv run scripts/remindctl.py status --authorize
If permission is denied or the prompt doesn't appear, read authorization.md to guide the user through manual setup. Do not retry in a loop.
