Bernardo, post-reboot: "Use for login" was the wrong question. Whether the
finger works is one decision, not two, and whether login prompts at all is
a different decision that was never in the menu.
System › Fingerprint is now a single Fingerprint (on/off) switch, leading
the menu with enroll/list/verify/delete as the plumbing behind it. It
writes the one settings.fingerprint.pam key, and modules/home/idle.nix now
defaults idle.fingerprint from that same key — so the lock screen and
login/sudo move together instead of drifting apart the way they did until
e2de906. nomarchy-fingerprint does the two rebuilds this needs (sudo
system for PAM, home switch for hyprlock) and refuses to turn on with no
finger enrolled.
System › Auto-login is new (nomarchy-autologin), and it is what decides
whether anything is asked at boot: auto-login on means no prompt whatever
the fingerprint switch says; off means the greeter asks, for a password or
a finger. Installer-seeded ON for LUKS machines — the passphrase already
gates the disk — and off without it, where the greeter is the only thing
between power-on and the desktop.
Both had to become state-owned to be toggleable at all, which surfaced two
real bugs:
* nomarchy.system.greeter.autoLogin defaulted from
`config.nomarchy.settings…` — an attribute that exists ONLY on the Home
Manager side. On NixOS it is absent and `or null` swallowed the error,
so the default silently evaluated to null on every machine ever built.
That is why the installer baked a Nix line: the state path never
worked. Now read via theme-state-read.nix (the hardware.nix/timezone.nix
pattern) and mkDefault'd, so the menu owns it and a hand-set line still
pins it. Two more options read the same phantom bridge — BACKLOG #116.
* `theme-sync get` printed Python's "None" for a JSON null, so every
`case … null)` a caller writes would miss. Now prints "null", as the
comment above it already promised for booleans.
The installer seeds the state instead of emitting the system.nix line,
because that line outranks the state and would strand the toggle.
V1 (V3 pending: HARDWARE-QUEUE). nix flake check --no-build, installer-
safety and option-docs all pass. Proved by eval/build, not assumed: a state
carrying autoLogin yields greetd initial_session {"user":"bernardo"}, the
template state (no autoLogin) yields none, and a hand-set null beats a state
that says otherwise; a state with only fingerprint.pam=true — nothing set by
hand — renders the hyprlock auth.fingerprint block; both new tools pass
bash -n and land in systemPackages (nomarchy-fingerprint only with a
reader); the patcher writes settings.greeter.autoLogin and no system.nix
line; and the get round trip prints null, so the menu reads "Auto-login
(off)" where it would have read "(on)".
The reader itself, the two rebuilds, and the reboot are hardware — queued.

T14s, after removing the pinning lines from `~/.nomarchy/system.nix`
|

(`greeter.autoLogin`, `hardware.fingerprint.pam`):
|

1. System › Fingerprint shows **Fingerprint (on)** (state already true).
|

Toggle it off → terminal opens, sudo system rebuild + home switch →
|

toast "Fingerprint off". Expect: sudo now refuses the finger and asks
|

only for a password; the lock screen (SUPER+CTRL+L) shows no
|

"or scan your finger" line. Toggle back on → both return.
|
||||
2. With fingerprint OFF and no finger enrolled, the toggle must REFUSE
|
||||
with "Enroll a finger first" and write nothing.
|
||||
3. System › Auto-login shows **(on)**. Toggle off → sudo rebuild →
|
||||
reboot → tuigreet asks, and accepts password OR finger (fingerprint
|
||||
on). Toggle back on → reboot → straight to the session, no prompt.
|
||||
Expected throughout: the two are independent, and auto-login on means
|
||||
no boot prompt regardless of the fingerprint switch.
