nixpkgs wraps waybar, so the running comm is `.waybar-wrapped`:
`pkill -x waybar` (state-sync restart/SIGUSR2 branches, tz-watch,
updates) matched nothing — a theme switch neither restarted nor reloaded
the bar, which then kept the gtk.css of whatever theme it started under
(the stale workspace-digit colors reported 2026-07-18; companion gtk fix
in the next commit). The unanchored pokes (recording, airplane,
theme-shot) had the opposite bug: `waybar` substring-matches the
supervisor's `nomarchy-waybar` comm too, and an unhandled RTMIN
terminates its bash — the pokes were killing the crash guard. All seven
sites now use `pkill … -x 'waybar|\.waybar-wrapped'`.
state-sync 0.5.1 → 0.5.2.
Verified live on Newton (V3-grade): new pattern restarts the bar under
the supervisor (fresh pid, supervisor alive); RTMIN+10 poke reaches the
bar, supervisor survives. V0 `nix flake check --no-build` + py_compile;
V1 HM generation + system toplevel build.

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.
Ghostty's OpenGL 4.3 floor broke the Acer (HD 4000 / 4.2). Dual-terminal
support (default Ghostty + install-time Kitty fallback) was more complexity
than it was worth.
- Remove ghostty.nix / nomarchy.ghostty.enable
- Kitty always installed and themed from theme-state
- Default nomarchy.terminal = kitty; SUPER+Return, doctor, calendar,
what-changed use kitty --class=com.nomarchy.*
- Drop install-time glxinfo probe and mesa-demos on the installer
- Docs/REQUIREMENTS no longer list OpenGL 4.3 as a terminal floor
Verified: V0 flake check; option-docs; installer-safety; template HM has
kitty, no ghostty; menu/calendar emit classed kitty launches.
Doctor tripwire was self-hiding under waybar (PATH miss / weak glyph).
Call nomarchy-doctor by store path, strip ANSI tooltips, use + format
+ signal 10 (generated and whole-swap). theme-shot asserts class:bad,
guest btop.theme, and pokes RTMIN+10 before desktop shots.
V2: theme-shot green for rose-pine, summer-night, catppuccin, everforest,
vantablack; bar crops show the red alert-circle. btop TUI visual is
softGL-blocked (Ghostty) → HARDWARE-QUEUE. Closes#51 and #52.
Close the honesty gap on #45. Rendered the full Boreal desktop
headlessly (tools/theme-shot.nix, softGL 1920x1080) and confirmed the
session reads as Boreal — aurora wallpaper, Waybar violet accent
(#B79BE8) workspace pill, GeistMono clock, rofi launcher violet
prompt/selection — not Tokyo Night. Added themes/boreal/preview.png
(480x270, matches the existing 21) so the picker row is no longer
plain-name.
theme-shot: park the cursor bottom-right before the desktop shot so the
frame (which doubles as the preview source) is clean; reusable for the
other two missing previews.
Verified: V0 flake check; V2 theme-shot desktop/menu shots viewed;
contrast 24x7 pass. Preview is a headless bare-desktop capture (not the
floating-terminal composition of the others) — hardware recapture noted.

Seed theme-state.json and the downstream template from themes/boreal.json
(including border + empty settings). Point eval/schema fallbacks at Boreal
(theme.nix preset, plymouth and live-ISO splash colors, theme-shot, sync
error examples). Docs/TESTING and RECOVERY follow the new default.
Verified: state matches boreal palette; theme-contrast all pass.
preview.png for boreal still missing (picker plain-name; V3 capture).
theme-shot guests had no ~/.nomarchy, so the session's exec-once
`nomarchy-theme-sync wallpaper` died on missing state and captures
showed a bare base-color backdrop. Seed theme-state.json via tmpfiles
before greetd starts the session — the real exec-once path now paints.
(A post-boot testScript seed is too late for exec-once, and a manual
re-run fails without WAYLAND_DISPLAY: awww's client socket is
display-named.)
V2: summer-night capture renders wallpaper + inverted cream bar +
menu + placeholder dim, all coherent.

tools/theme-shot.nix: boots the full themed desktop headlessly
(software-GL Hyprland, THEME env picks the slug) at 1920x1080 and
QMP-dumps desktop.png + menu.png (rofi root open) — the review
artifact for slice (c). Two fixes over the 2026-06-19 spike:
home-manager.useGlobalPkgs (the HM submodule otherwise misses the
overlay) and the menu shot via hyprctl dispatch exec. Maintainer tool,
deliberately not a checks.* gate. Known gap in the header: the
wallpaper needs ~/.nomarchy seeded in the guest.
First full-res review (tokyo-night) added to the item-28 punch list:
rofi root menu is ~760px of mostly empty row space (candidate:
right-aligned SUPER+CTRL hints from keybinds.nix), full-color Papirus
menu icons vs the all-monochrome bar glyphs is a [human] identity
call, bar right-cluster group margins confirmed at full res, and the
bar's alpha(text,.5) dim states should become the @muted role now
that 28b floors guarantee its legibility. Whole-swap bar module
parity verified textually — no drift.
Verified: harness end-to-end green (screenshots read back); evals
from tools/ via the relative flake path.
