The split line is consumption time: palette JSONs, previews and
per-theme overrides are read at Nix eval and stay in-repo (~3 MB);
wallpapers are runtime-only (swww via nomarchy-state-sync, never read
at eval) and move to the pinned nomarchy-wallpapers non-flake input
(git.bemagri.xyz/bernardo/Nomarchy-Wallpapers @ 803b48d, all 24 slugs).
New overlay drv nomarchy-default-themes merges the two: repo themes
copied, <slug>/backgrounds symlinked from the input, build FAILS if any
theme JSON lacks non-empty backgrounds — the drift guard for the
two-repo dance. nomarchy-state-sync's wrapper now points straight at
the merged store path (no in-package copy): the package drops from
~94 MB to 32.6 KiB and the wallpapers source appears exactly once in
any system closure, ISO included — offline promise intact. Downstream
custom wallpapers still win ($NOMARCHY_PATH/themes is checked first),
and an explicit state.json wallpaper path still works.
checks re-pointed at the merged tree (theme-wholeswap,
state-sync-validate, auto-theme); theme-contrast and airplane stay on
./themes (JSON/text only). import-palettes.py + README updated;
ROADMAP § Faster switches marked shipped; LATER now carries only the
pre-built-variants follow-on. Also files #151 (v1 launch plan, [human])
with measured history numbers: the 107 MiB pack is 94 MB wallpaper
blobs; all 848 text commits pack to ~15-20 MiB — recommendation
recorded to filter-repo at the GitHub move, not fresh-start.
Verification: V2 — nix flake check --no-build green; theme-wholeswap,
state-sync-validate, auto-theme VM check, downstream-template-home all
green; wallpapers store path exactly once in the state-sync closure;
`list` works from a scratch state dir. V3 queued: live wallpaper render
+ bg-next + custom-override precedence after next pull (HARDWARE-QUEUE).
Lock gained exactly the one input node. Implementation by a Sonnet
subagent; design and review on Fable.

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.
#69: audit-theme-design tags hue/CVD/ANSI-family noise on white,
vantablack, lumon, hackerman, matte-black, miasma as [identity] with a
legend — do not retune identity palettes into traffic lights.
#70: import-palettes keeps surface≠overlay when color0==color8, derives
light UI chips from base (ANSI-black trap), gentler light mantle; roles
are first-class. No bulk re-import of shipped theme JSON.
Verified: V0 (py_compile + synthetic import fixtures + audit report).
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.
