docs(agent): promote V0/V1 PROPOSED items to NEXT #47–50

Bernardo-directed triage: bump the no-VM (V0/V1) PROPOSED items into NEXT
so parallel worktree agents can take them without contending for the VM.
Grouped into #47 docs+string drift pass, #48 i2c option-docs, #49
pure-contract checks.* batch, #50 small code one-liners. Removed the
promoted pitches from PROPOSED (breadcrumbs left); V2-wanting items stay
in PROPOSED.

+### 47. Docs + string factual-drift pass (promoted 2026-07-09)
+Pure docs (V0) plus two `.nix` string fixes (V1: HM build). One pass or split:
+- **README/docs drift:** theme count **21 → 24** (`README.md`,
+  `docs/TESTING.md`, `templates/downstream/README.md`); waybar whole-swap
+  list → summer-day/summer-night/executive-slate/boreal/neon-glass (drop the
+  catppuccin/lumon/nord/retro-82 stubs); idle table "suspend **30**" →
+  **15 min battery-only** (`idle.nix`); Tailscale row `sudo tailscale up` →
+  operator/no-sudo; `hosts/live.nix` header "No installer yet" → current;
+  CONVENTIONS parity list add **boreal**.
+- **Secondary docs:** README layout tree add doctor/control-center/
+  battery-notify; link `docs/MIGRATION.md` from README nav + fix its
+  placeholder flake-init URL; OVERRIDES.md screenshot pipe swappy → **satty**.
+- **Document always-on home pieces:** easyeffects/udiskie/cliphist ship with
+  no toggle by design — a short README note + override pointer.
+- **String fixes (V1):** keybind cheatsheet `desc = "Network (nmtui)"` →
+  networkmanager_dmenu (`keybinds.nix`); complete the `nomarchy-menu` usage
+  string (add doctor/controlcenter/rollback/firmware/…, `rofi.nix`).
+Verify any documented command by running it.
+
+### 48. Document `nomarchy.hardware.i2c.*` — close checks.option-docs (promoted 2026-07-09)
+`nomarchy.hardware.i2c.enable` and `.ddcci` (`modules/nixos/hardware.nix`)
+have no README table rows → `checks.option-docs` is red. Add rows (+ note the
+effective default: option default `false` but distro `mkDefault true` for
+ddcci in `modules/nixos/default.nix`). Optional template opt-in comment.
+V0 — `checks.option-docs` verifies (pure runCommand, no VM).
+
+### 49. Pure-contract `checks.*` batch — no VM (promoted 2026-07-09)
+Add pure runCommand checks (all V0):
+- Expand CI `py_compile` to **all** tracked `*.py` (compose-lock, tools/*,
+  tools/vm/*), not just theme-sync (`.gitea/workflows/check.yml`; sync
+  `docs/TESTING.md §1`).
+- Hardware-db module names ∈ pinned `nixos-hardware.nixosModules` (a lock bump
+  can rename modules and break profiled installs only on matching DMI).
+- Installer pure contracts: `compose-lock.py`, disko `swapSize`
+  ("0"/"0G"/"NG") + `withLuks` arg contract.
+- **windowrule dead-syntax guard:** build the generated `hyprland.conf` and
+  fail on the rule-first `windowrule = (float|center|size|tile|…) ,` pattern
+  or the `windowrulev2` keyword (would have caught `ed7fd93`).
+
+### 50. Small code one-liners batch — V0/V1 (promoted 2026-07-09)
+- Bluetooth menu row self-gate on `command -v blueman-manager` (`rofi.nix`) —
+  no-op when `nomarchy.system.bluetooth.enable = false`, like Printers.
+- Control Center rollback list `/tmp/nomarchy-gens` → `mktemp` (predictable
+  world-writable path → multi-user race).
+- `usbutils` on `nomarchy-install` PATH so the fingerprint `lsusb` probe works
+  (sysfs is the current fallback).
+- Export overlay tools (doctor/control-center/battery-notify) as flake
+  `packages` (`nix build .#nomarchy-doctor`) — three lines in flake.nix.
