Repro

-- DO NOT change the paths and don't remove the colorscheme
local root = vim.fn.fnamemodify("./.repro", ":p")

-- set stdpaths to use .repro
for _, name in ipairs({ "config", "data", "state", "cache" }) do
  vim.env[("XDG_%s_HOME"):format(name:upper())] = root .. "/" .. name
end

-- bootstrap lazy
local lazypath = root .. "/plugins/lazy.nvim"
if not vim.loop.fs_stat(lazypath) then
  vim.fn.system({ "git", "clone", "--filter=blob:none", "https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim.git", lazypath, })
end
vim.opt.runtimepath:prepend(lazypath)

-- install plugins
local plugins = {
  "folke/tokyonight.nvim",
  "folke/todo-comments.nvim",
  -- add any other plugins here
}
require("lazy").setup(plugins, {
  root = root .. "/plugins",
})

vim.cmd.colorscheme("tokyonight")
-- add anything else here

-- TODO: My Todo
-- This file should be in a hidden folder and current working directory is the **parent** of the hidden folder

You can add --hidden to your opts

 search = {
    command = "rg",
    args = {
      "--color=never",
      "--no-heading",
      "--with-filename",
      "--line-number",
      "--column",
      "--hidden", -- added line
    },
    -- regex that will be used to match keywords.
    -- don't replace the (KEYWORDS) placeholder
    pattern = [[\b(KEYWORDS):]], -- ripgrep regex
    -- pattern = [[\b(KEYWORDS)\b]], -- match without the extra colon. You'll likely get false positives
  },

But I think it would also make sense to add the current buffer's todos in the list even if the buffer is hidden. Is that something that makes sense here?
