- templates/downstream/home.nix: commented "Webcam tuning" entries
(cameractrls, v4l-utils) — bare packages, so template not toggle,
per the option-surface rule; rarely needed since the IR-hide covers
the common dual-sensor case.
- agent/BACKLOG.md PROPOSED: the portal/Flatpak camera picker still
lists the internal IR sensor (libcamera path, untouched by the v4l2
rule) — three options laid out, recommending document-only until a
T14s-style machine is available to test a libcamera-side rule.
Closes BACKLOG NOW#7. Verified: V0 (flake check green; template still
evaluates through mkFlake).

Phase 2 of the in-flake-state philosophy, mirroring night-light: the
nomarchy-keyboard-watch daemon now remembers per-device layouts in the
git-tracked state file (settings.keyboard.devices) instead of
~/.local/state/nomarchy/keyboard-layouts.
- Reads the LIVE working-tree map (theme-sync get → jq) so a pick this
session is honoured at once; writes instantly with --no-switch (no
rebuild). Writes the whole map back at the dot-free parent path
(read-modify-write) so a device name with a dot can't corrupt the
tool's dotted set-path (Hyprland only sanitises spaces→-).
- Graduation: nomarchy.keyboard.devices now mkDefault-merges entries
from settings.keyboard.devices, so each remembered device becomes a
generated Hyprland device{} block on the next rebuild (reproducible,
hotplug-applied). A hand-written keyboard.devices.<name> still wins;
once baked, the watcher's is_declared check makes it step back.
- theme.nix seeds settings.keyboard.devices = {} (sparse state still
evaluates); options/template descriptions updated; ROADMAP marked done.
Eval-verified (graduation + mkDefault precedence) and the set/get
writer round-trips. Still needs the on-hardware hotplug re-verify (the
picker path isn't testable in CI).

Night light is off by default and configured entirely through the menu,
writing into the downstream flake instead of ~/.local/state — so the
choice is git-tracked and reproducible across a clone+rebuild.
Two flags under a new settings.* section of the state file (exposed as
the nomarchy.settings option):
- settings.nightlight.installed — sticky, gates the hyprsunset unit;
nomarchy.nightlight.enable mkDefault-reads it. First enable from the
menu rebuilds to create the unit (the one accepted rebuild).
- settings.nightlight.on — runtime on/off, toggled instantly
(theme-sync set --no-switch + systemctl), no rebuild. An ExecCondition
reads the live flag at session start so an off survives reboot;
splitting it from the sticky flag means a later unrelated rebuild
never undoes an instant-off (no decay).
Drops the ~/.local/state/nomarchy/nightlight-off marker and the
ConditionPathExists hack. theme-sync set now skips the wallpaper
re-apply for non-wallpaper keys, and its rebuild notifications are
generic ("changes" not "theme").
First cut of the broader principle — any user-settable config gets a
menu writer that lands it in the flake; no state outside the checkout.
Docs (README §4, ROADMAP, template) updated to reflect it.
Eval- and round-trip-verified; on-hardware check pending.

Add opt-in nomarchy.updates (modules/home/updates.nix): a nomarchy-updates
checker on a systemd user timer (interval, default daily) that surfaces a
Waybar indicator + a notification when updates are available, without ever
changing anything (you still run sys-update / flatpak update).
It counts:
- flake inputs behind upstream — only the flake's DIRECT inputs (root.inputs:
nixpkgs, the Nomarchy input, home-manager, stylix…), not the transitive
closure, via `git ls-remote` vs the locked rev. Offline → skipped, never a
false alarm.
- Flatpak updates, when the flatpak CLI is present (.flatpak, gated on
services.flatpak being on) — Bernardo's suggestion.
Waybar custom/updates self-gates (hidden until the timer finds something;
accent " N", signal 9 for instant refresh), in the generated bar and both
summer whole-swaps. The notification fires only when the count grows, so a
daily timer doesn't nag. Click → the upgrade flow in a terminal (sys-update /
flatpak update, each confirmed). nomarchy-updates ships always on PATH and
self-gates so the static whole-swap bars can exec it even when the feature
is off.
Verified: flake check clean; home generation builds; the jq direct-input
filter + status self-gate exercised against the real flake.lock; script
passes bash -n. Pending an on-machine check (ls-remote/notify/timer need a
live session).

Finishing the four remaining "opt-in services" candidates — but two of
them aren't service-shaped, so the package-vs-toggle principle applies:
- Nextcloud client → a bare tray app; already in the app-suite menu,
not a service.
- WireGuard → NetworkManager (on distro-wide) imports .conf
tunnels natively, so there's no daemon to "just
enable". Only the wg/wg-quick CLI is missing →
wireguard-tools added to the app-suite menu.
The two that ARE config-backed become nomarchy.services.* toggles:
- openrgb → services.hardware.openrgb (daemon + device udev rules).
- restic → a small scaffolded surface (repository / passwordFile /
paths) over services.restic.backups: daily timer, 7/4/6
retention, --exclude-caches, repo auto-init. Asserts that
repository + passwordFile are set when enabled. passwordFile
is typed `str`, not `path`, so a flake-relative secret can't
be copied into the world-readable store.
README option table and ROADMAP (services now "Seventeen shipped";
cloud-sync / networking / backup / devices areas updated) + the downstream
system.nix examples. Both branches eval-verified; the restic assertions
confirmed firing when repo/password are unset.

Make the whole workstation menu available, all off/commented by default.
home.nix: the bare GUI apps become a categorized commented menu (~50
suggestions across browsers, comms, office, notes, code, graphics, A/V,
media, gaming, files/sync, security, system, local AI) — uncomment to add.
services.nix: the members that need system config (not just a package)
become opt-in nomarchy.services.* toggles, each with a commented example
in the downstream system.nix:
- docker → rootful Docker + user in docker group; asserts against the
podman docker-compat (both provide the `docker` command)
- kdeconnect → programs.kdeconnect (opens phone-pairing ports)
- gamemode → Feral GameMode daemon
- adb → android-tools (programs.adb was removed; systemd ≥258 does
the device uaccess udev rules, so no group needed)
- wireshark → Qt GUI + user in wireshark group (capture without root)
- ollama → local LLM runtime on 127.0.0.1:11434
- printing → CUPS + Avahi/mDNS network printer discovery
README option table and ROADMAP (services item now "Fifteen shipped";
local-AI / containers / gaming / devices areas marked) updated. All seven
branches eval-verified with the toggles forced on; the docker/podman
assertion confirmed firing.

The "default application suite" roadmap item, but deliberately NOT a
nomarchy.apps.* option surface: a bare package install has no config to
put behind a toggle, so a thin `mkIf x { systemPackages = [p]; }` only
reinvents what a package list already gives. Instead the suite is a
curated home.packages list in templates/downstream/home.nix (extending
the existing `# firefox` convention) — active staples (libreoffice,
vscode, gimp, inkscape, mpv, amberol) plus commented suggestions. The
opt-out is deleting a line; it also keeps the apps out of the live ISO
automatically (the ISO never scaffolds from the template).
The members that DO need system config become nomarchy.services.* opt-in
toggles instead (config behind the switch, like the existing services):
- steam → programs.steam (32-bit stack, controller udev, RP ports)
- libvirt → libvirtd + virt-manager, login user added to libvirtd group
- obs → obs-studio + a v4l2loopback virtual camera (exclusive_caps=1)
selectable as a webcam in Zoom/Teams
README option table, ROADMAP (services item now "Eight shipped"; suite
item marked done with the no-surface rationale) and the downstream
system.nix examples updated to match.

Convention: an off-by-default feature that needs nomarchy.* settings in the
downstream files should appear commented-out in templates/downstream/{home,
system}.nix, so a new install enables it by uncommenting + tweaking rather
than hunting the docs for the option name. Apply it now: night light,
nomarchy.monitors, per-device keyboard layouts (home.nix) and power
management (system.nix). Also fix the stale keyboard.layout note
(console/LUKS follow xkb automatically now). Documented in README S6.

- Pre-activation failure ("desktop pre-activation failed"): the in-chroot
HM build hard-coded `--option substituters ""`, which only works on
OFFLINE installs (where the ISO store is copied in). Online installs
(now common — wifi works) had no pins and built from source. Fix: build
the generation in the live env (its store always has the pins), nix copy
the closure to the target, chroot only activates. In-chroot build kept
as fallback. Uses path: (not git+file:) to sidestep libgit2 ownership.
- Read-only home.nix: templates come out of the store mode 0444 and cp
preserves it — chmod -R u+w after staging so the user can edit it.
- Keyboard + locale selection: gum prompts (localectl layouts/variants +
curated UTF-8 locale list) and NOMARCHY_LOCALE/KB_LAYOUT/KB_VARIANT for
unattended. One choice flows everywhere — services.xserver.xkb (source
of truth) + console.useXkbConfig (tty/greeter) + boot.initrd.systemd
(so the LUKS passphrase prompt uses the layout; script initrd can't) +
the generated home.nix's nomarchy.keyboard.* for the Hyprland session.
- test-install.sh: NOMARCHY_OVMF env override for sandboxed OVMF paths.
Verified end-to-end in QEMU: offline LUKS install completes, boots to a
themed desktop (no autogenerated-config banner), Plymouth renders the LUKS
prompt on the theme-tinted background.

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.
