Description
Currently, most of the data that we keep track of (for example, reminders, todos, PRs) all get forgotten when the bot resets. I think the "proper" solution is to use a production database, but local json files (such as schmits.json) might work well too. Just writing these variables to json and reading them would mean that a crash doesn't lead to complete data loss.

Research direction
Start by inventorying the reminders, todos, PRs, and other data that currently disappear when the bot resets, then inspect the existing handling around schmits.json. Clarify whether local JSON or a production database is expected before implementation. Done should mean the tracked data survives crashes and restarts without being lost.
