The machine flake's git-tracked settings file is system state, not
"theme" only — rename it to state.json. CLI becomes nomarchy-state-sync
with a nomarchy-theme-sync symlink for scripts and muscle memory.
Eval (mkFlake, doctor, lifecycle) still accepts theme-state.json; the
next write migrates to state.json and removes the legacy file.
Documented in MIGRATION.md; drop the CLI alias after release notes.
Post-migration annoyances from TuringMachine:
- Force fprintAuth from fingerprint.pam (NixOS defaults it on with fprintd)
- First-boot toast waits for swaync, retries, only marks after success
- Night light status/toggle handles masked units + hyprsunset/wlsunset
- VPN menu: define rofi_menu in nomarchy-vpn (was a silent no-op)
- Left arrow = ↩ Back in list menus; GTK menu contrast via Stylix
- Mic-mute LED udev + sync after wpctl; EasyEffects starts after tray
- Migration guide: HM before GUI login, fingerprint/browser/VPN notes
Verified: flake check --no-build; checks.first-boot; checks.hardware-toggles
(pam=false node). V3 session items pending after user rebuild.
One-shot user unit fires a dismissible "You're set" notification on the
first graphical session (SUPER+M / SUPER+T / SUPER+? + Network + Doctor),
then writes settings.firstBootShown into the flake checkout. Skips the
live ISO hostname (hosts/live.nix keeps its own toast). Toggle:
nomarchy.firstBootWelcome.enable. checks.first-boot covers the gate.
Verified: V2 — flake check --no-build; checks.first-boot green; local
shim smoke; downstream-template-home ships the unit.
