Real installs on Acer Aspire M5-481T and Dell XPS 9350 (2026-07-14):
- #123: HM pre-activate dies at dconf without XDG_RUNTIME_DIR on both
machines — partial first boot (weird GTK + missing nm-applet are
symptoms of the incomplete bake).
- #124: install seeds ?ref=v1 while writing main-era nomarchy.hardware.*,
and v1 lags hard enough that rebuilds die with "option does not exist".
- #95: Ghostty on the Acer is OpenGL 4.2 < required 4.3 (OpenGLOutdated);
XPS starts Ghostty fine.
HARDWARE-QUEUE V3 rows; photos stay local (.gitignore WhatsApp Image*).
A settings.local.json.tmp.* atomic-write temp file slipped into the
previous commit via git add -A; untrack it and ignore the pattern. (The
prior commit message also dropped the word text to a stray backtick:
the override glyph is filled with the palette text colour.)

The repo is maintained by agents from multiple vendors, so agent
instructions move out of vendor-specific locations into shared,
git-tracked markdown:
- AGENTS.md is the new entry point for any harness; CLAUDE.md becomes a
symlink to it (Claude Code keeps working unchanged).
- Skill bodies relocate to agent/: VERIFICATION.md (the enforcement
rules, ex .claude/skills/nomarchy), DELEGATION.md (capability tiers
light/standard/frontier, scout/runner role contracts, token economy,
parallel fan-out — consolidates the CLAUDE.md model table, LOOP.md's
economy section, and skill §6.5 into one place; vendor model names
survive only in the per-harness mapping table), THEME-DESIGN.md
(ex .claude/skills/theme, which previously lacked frontmatter).
- .claude/ shrinks to a thin Claude Code adapter: settings, subagent
defs, and skill shims that route into agent/.
- Maps updated: agent/README.md (instructions vs state vs adapters),
docs/README.md, README.md layout tree.
Cleanup: stale old_distro .gitignore entry dropped (dir long gone);
local result*/__pycache__ artifacts removed; JOURNAL.md rotated (29
recent entries kept, 120 older moved to agent/JOURNAL-ARCHIVE.md,
rotation rule documented in the header).
Verification: V0 (docs/meta only) — nix flake check --no-build exit 0
with the tracked symlink; grep sweep confirms no vendor model names
outside DELEGATION.md's mapping table.

A git add -A in 2a23e82 swept in .claude/skills/use-gemini/SKILL.md —
a Claude Code harness-injected tool doc, not part of the distro. Same
treatment as settings.local.json (db6a0ba): untracked + gitignored.

It holds this machine's Claude Code permission allowlist — local by
convention (the `.local` suffix; settings.json is the shared one), so it
shouldn't be versioned. Remove from tracking (keeping the working file)
and gitignore it.

Full replacement of the previous iteration, rebuilt around three ideas:
- Pure evaluation: theme-state.json lives inside the flake and is read
via the nomarchy.stateFile option — no --impure, ever.
- All-Home-Manager theming: `nomarchy-theme-sync apply` writes the JSON
and runs `home-manager switch`; every theme change is one atomic,
rollbackable generation. Wallpaper (swww) is the sole runtime piece.
- Flat, downstream-first layout: modules/{nixos,home} with one
options.nix each, exported as nixosModules/homeModules + overlay +
flake template; system (nixos-rebuild) and desktop (home-manager
switch) rebuild paths are fully split.
Ships 21 themes imported from the previous iteration (palettes,
wallpapers, btop themes, six whole-swap Waybar identities), Stylix for
the GTK/Qt/cursor long tail, a live ISO target with offline theme
switching, and docs/TESTING.md with the QEMU verification workflow.
