Package the installer’s pure hardware-db probe as nomarchy-detect-hw:
prints suggested hardwareProfile and system.nix snippets (or --raw
protocol lines). Does not rewrite the flake. On PATH via the distro
module; docs/HARDWARE.md §8 updated. Close#58.
Verified: V1 (build + run on AMD laptop with fingerprint/NPU/IR cam).
#54: permanent checks.installer-safety; test-install-safety harness with
offline compose-fail, LUKS-signature disk warn, and HM-hint FORCE paths.
#33: enable themed rofi scrollbars (generated + all whole-swap .rasi).
#43: MOTD + first-boot tip for System › Firmware (V3 LVFS stays hw-queue).
V2: compose-fail/disk-warn/hm-hint logs green offline; theme-shot
boreal+summer-night menus OK. V0 flake/installer-safety.
Extend checks.doctor: the bare test VM lacks every probe tool, so the
healthy nomarchy-doctor run drives all six hardware checks in skip mode.
Assert the self-gated skip rows appear (NetworkManager, fingerprint,
fwupd, VA-API) and the sheet still exits 0 — proving the section runs
without erroring under set -euo pipefail. No node changes.
Verified V2: nix build .#checks.x86_64-linux.doctor passes. Closes#44.

#50: Bluetooth menu row + handler self-gate on `command -v
blueman-manager` (no-op when bluetooth is off, like Printers); Control
Center rollback list /tmp/nomarchy-gens → mktemp; usbutils on the
nomarchy-install PATH (fingerprint lsusb probe); export
nomarchy-doctor/control-center/battery-notify as flake packages.
Verified V0 (flake check) + V1 (packages, installer, HM generation build).
Also records #46: the swap=0 + unattended-LUKS fail-closed contracts
(208b8d4) V2-verified via a headless two-variant install — fail-closed
exits before wipe with the disk blank; swap=0 installs with no @swap
subvol and boots to a themed desktop. Both items removed from NEXT.

Four new no-VM checks.* + CI py_compile expansion:
- hardware-db-modules: installer DB module names ∈ pinned
nixos-hardware.nixosModules (a lock bump can rename a module and break
profiled installs on just the matching DMI, invisible to any VM).
- installer-compose-lock: offline lock-composer contract on fixtures.
- installer-disko: pure Nix assert — swapSize "0"/"0G" → no @swap, "2G"
→ sized, withLuks wraps root (permanently guards the #46 install fix).
- windowrule-syntax: builds the generated hyprland.conf and fails on the
pre-0.53 grammar / windowrulev2 keyword (guards ed7fd93).
CI py_compile now covers all tracked *.py; docs/TESTING.md §1 synced.
Implemented by a worktree agent; diff reviewed. Verified V0 (flake check)
+ V1 (each checks.x86_64-linux.* built on main, exit 0); agent's negative
tests confirm each guard fails on a regression.

Added toggles for updates, battery limit, bluetooth, and printing to the Control Center. Wired default values to read from theme-state.json settings. Verified: V1.
A display profile can now pin workspaces to outputs:
docked = {
monitors = [ … ];
workspaces = { "1" = "DP-3"; "9" = "eDP-1"; };
};
The bare list-of-monitors shape still works (either-type; hyprland.nix
normalizes — coercedTo refuses list-of-submodule sources). Pins bake as
Hyprland `workspace` rules from the active profile and apply instantly
on `nomarchy-display-profile apply`: keyword sets the session rule,
moveworkspacetomonitor moves open workspaces over. Pins from a
previously applied profile linger in-session until reload/rebuild
(hyprctl can only add) — inert if the output is absent, noted in the
applier.
V1: flake check green (checks.display-profiles now asserts
workspaceRule) + scratch-downstream eval: baked settings carry both
rule sets, the generated applier has the keyword+dispatch pairs
(bash -n), match/list correct with mixed shapes. V3 queued in
HARDWARE-QUEUE (rides the dock test). Item 15 complete — deleted.

nomarchy.displayProfiles: named layouts for the same outputs, each a
list of nomarchy.monitors-style entries. The active profile lives in
the in-flake state (settings.displayProfile) on the night-light
pattern: nomarchy-display-profile apply <name> fires the baked hyprctl
rules instantly and writes the state with --no-switch; the next rebuild
bakes the profile's entries over nomarchy.monitors whole-by-name.
Monitor-rule composition is extracted to pure monitor-rules.nix
(renderer + 3-layer resolve, incl. a disable-guard so a stale menu
resolution pick can't resurrect a profile-disabled panel, and junk
state degrading to base config instead of an eval error) — because a
writeText/toFile state fixture is unreadable at flake-check eval time,
the new checks.display-profiles unit-tests the pure function directly.
Menu: System › Display gains a self-gated "Profiles ›" row (●/○ active
mark, Base layout to clear); commented template example + README row.
Verified: V0 (flake check, forcing the new check's asserts); V1 — a
scratch downstream through lib.mkFlake builds: the generated tool
passes bash -n with correct rules (disable/vrr/float scale), the baked
hyprland.conf shows the exact expected overlay, the menu renders, and
list/usage smoke-test clean. Remains: V3 live switching on a dock
(HARDWARE-QUEUE). Slices b (hotplug auto-switch) + c (workspace
binding) stay in item 15.

The bar colored the battery at 25/10% but nothing notified. New
shellcheck-gated watcher (pkgs/nomarchy-battery-notify, overlay) polls
the same sysfs the bar reads — type=Battery, scope!=Device — and fires
one toast per downward crossing (normal at 25%, critical at 10%; swaync
keeps critical up until dismissed), re-armed by charging. Self-gates on
battery presence (the powerprofile pattern), so desktops get a silent
no-op. HM user unit behind nomarchy.batteryNotify.enable (default on)
with libnotify on the unit PATH; notify-send resolves from PATH so the
VM check can shim it. poweralertd rejected: its UPower thresholds
(20/5) wouldn't match the bar, and it toasts every plug/unplug.
Verified: V0 (flake check, bash -n); V1 (template-home builds, unit in
the generation); V2 GREEN (new checks.battery-notify, test_power fake
battery: self-gate, silence at 80%, one toast per crossing, critical
urgency, charging re-arms). Remains: V3 — real swaync toast on a
draining laptop (HARDWARE-QUEUE).

'Never has to master Nix' includes the error messages. The tool grows
validate_state (appearance schema = hard errors; settings.* and
unknown keys = warnings so menu writers and newer schemas keep
working), a read-only `validate` subcommand, and validation BEFORE
every write — an invalid set/apply is refused with the on-disk file
untouched. JSON syntax errors now say line, column, and fix. theme.nix
enforces the same schema at eval time (on the post-defaults state, so
sparse/older files still evaluate) and throws a message naming each
field, its got-value, and the fix paths — the hand-edit escape hatch
no longer ends in a Nix stack trace. Doctor's JSON fix-text points at
validate.
V1: new checks.theme-sync-validate fixture corpus green (good state,
trailing comma, bad hex, bad type, unknown key, refused set with
byte-identical file); negative mkFlake eval of a broken scratch
downstream shows the friendly throw; good-path template-home builds.

The things that actually break user machines, one command (and menu ›
System › Doctor): failed system/user units, disk space (real
filesystems only — fstype allowlist makes it VM/live safe, device
dedupe collapses / and /nix), theme-state.json parses + is
git-tracked, flake dirty/behind as warnings, generation age (profile
symlink mtime — store paths are epoch-1), snapper timeline when
enabled. Read-only by contract; every ✖ prints the one fixing command;
exit 1 on any problem. Ships as pkgs/nomarchy-doctor so the VM check
runs on a minimal node.
Verified: V1 package build (shellcheck-gated) + a real-hardware smoke
that correctly flagged a genuinely failed user unit on the dev box;
V2 green — checks.doctor VM test: induced failed unit flips the sheet
to exit-1 naming the unit and its fix, reset-failed returns healthy.

Slice (a) of the docs review: 9 undocumented nomarchy.* options got
README rows or inline .leaf mentions (autoTimezone, camera IR-hide,
intel.guc, amd.pstate/vaapi, package, system.stateFile, restic.paths).
The diff is now a flake check: option names are eval-walked from the
four option-declaring modules (config halves stay lazy) and compared
to the tables by tools/check-option-docs.py — undocumented options and
stale table rows both fail. Negative-tested against the pre-fix README
(reports exactly the 9 gaps). Item 6 split into slices a–d in BACKLOG.

Palette roles aren't uniform: summer-day and flexoki-light use subtext
as text-ON-surface (== base) and surface as a dark chip (== text), so
swaync's @subtext-on-@base body text and @surface/@text buttons were
self-colored (caught on the Latitude).
- body/summary: @text on @base — the one text pairing that passes in
every palette (survey: worst WCAG ratio 5.18 across all 21 themes;
subtext/base bottomed at 1.00 twice, muted/base at 1.27).
- hover rows + widget-title buttons: alpha(@text, 0.1) tints —
contrast by construction; subtext/surface defines dropped.
- NEW checks.theme-contrast (tools/check-theme-contrast.py): asserts
the hex-on-hex text pairings across themes/*.json, cheap (no VM).
The audit also found the generated waybar/rofi CSS shares the bug
class, live on flexoki-light (no whole-swap) → BACKLOG item 27.
Verified: V0; V1 (checks.theme-contrast builds green, 21 themes;
rendered services.swaync.style has zero @subtext/@surface). Honesty:
NOT visually verified — V3 queued (notify-send on summer-day).

Re-diagnosis of the "btrfs-assistant 2.2 segfaults on launch" bug, and
the fix is not the planned nixpkgs override:
1. gdb: the crash is btrfs_util_subvolume_iterator_next() —
libbtrfsutil's UNPRIVILEGED subvolume-iteration path in btrfs-progs
6.17.1 (upstream-fixed after 6.17.1, kdave/btrfs-progs 886571653).
Symbol versions were checked and match: not ABI/link drift.
2. VM A/B on real btrfs: as root it works (exit 0); as a user it
segfaults (139). The pkexec launcher runs it as root — so the GUI
path was fine all along, except…
3. …the distro shipped NO polkit authentication agent: every pkexec
prompt in the session failed silently. That is the actual root
cause of "the GUI doesn't open".
Shipped: hyprpolkitagent (Hyprland's Qt agent — the prompt is
Stylix-themed) via exec-once in hyprland.nix; `nomarchy-menu snapshot`
prefers btrfs-assistant-launcher again, with the nomarchy-snapshots
fzf flow kept as fallback (and for SSH); checks.snapshot-gui guards
the root path + offscreen GUI event loop on a real btrfs volume so a
lock bump can't silently regress it. No btrfs-progs patch: all our
flows are root-side; the unprivileged fix arrives with a lock bump.
Verified: V0 (flake check) + V2 (snapshot-gui check, executed green) +
V1 (HM generation builds; hyprland.conf carries the agent exec-once;
generated menu passes bash -n with the launcher wiring). Remaining V3
queued: first on-hardware themed polkit prompt.

modules/nixos/oom.nix — running out of memory now kills the offending
process (with a desktop notification via systembus-notify) instead of
freezing the desktop for minutes until the kernel OOM killer fires.
earlyoom over systemd-oomd, deliberately: oomd kills whole cgroups,
and a Hyprland session runs as ONE scope (nothing here spawns per-app
systemd scopes, unlike GNOME) — under pressure oomd would take out the
entire desktop to save it. earlyoom kills the single largest process
before the thrash point. nixpkgs default-enables oomd in an inert
state (no slices monitored); it is disabled outright so there is one
owner. Session plumbing is --avoid-listed (unanchored — NixOS wrappers
rename comm to .foo-wrapped); no --prefer tuning, largest-RSS
selection already finds the hog. All mkDefault; opt out with
services.earlyoom.enable = false (README note added).
Verified: V0 (flake check) + V2 — new checks.oom-protection
runNixOSTest, executed: a chunked allocator (686 MB peak, 1 GB VM) is
SIGTERM'd by earlyoom in 0.1 s, a bystander unit survives (the
process-level granularity the module exists for), and systemd-oomd is
asserted inactive. 25 s runtime.

Completes the remaining "Distro branding, round 2" work.
GRUB theme: hosts/live.nix builds nomarchyGrubTheme whose background is
the same composed splash as the isolinux/BIOS splash (accent logo on
base), with a palette-coloured boot menu and accent timeout bar. Derived
from nixos-grub2-theme only to reuse its bundled DejaVu .pf2; the stock
NixOS logo is dropped (ours is in the background). Wired as
isoImage.grubTheme so UEFI boot matches BIOS.
distroId: set system.nixos.distroId = "nomarchy" so os-release is honest
(ID=nomarchy, ID_LIKE=nixos). Safe — switch-to-configuration builds its
"is this NixOS?" guard from the configured distroId (and /etc/NIXOS is
the fallback), so rebuilds keep working. isNixos→false blanks the
nixos.org URLs, so extraOSReleaseArgs restores them to the project.
Adds checks.distro-id (runNixOSTest): boots distroId=nomarchy and runs
switch-to-configuration dry-activate green; os-release eval-verified from
the real downstream config; grub theme built + structure-verified.

Add checks.battery-charge-limit (runNixOSTest): the test_power module
fakes a Mains adapter, toggling ac_online emits a real power_supply
uevent, and the test asserts the udev rule restarts the oneshot (changed
InvocationID). Verifies the re-apply *trigger* at runtime, beyond the
earlier eval check; the sysfs write still needs real hardware. Also
records the SSH_AUTH_SOCK rendered-artifact verification in the roadmap.

Harden the hardware-enablement broad seed for newer hardware:
- xe vs i915: intel.guc emits the i915 param (i915.enable_guc=3), which the
newer `xe` driver (Lunar Lake / Battlemage / Panther Lake, recent Xe GPUs)
ignores — it enables GuC by default. hardware-db.sh now reads the in-use
GPU driver (lspci -k) and writes `intel.guc = false` on xe hardware, so the
toggle isn't a misleading no-op there.
- NPU detection by PCI accelerator class [1200] (+ keywords), attributing the
vendor, instead of a fixed device-ID list — so new NPUs (e.g. Panther Lake)
are caught without a code change. Known IDs kept as a fallback/reference.
- Kernel awareness: a nomarchy.hardware.latestKernel escape hatch
(linuxPackages_latest) for very-new hardware whose drivers only just landed,
and a build-time warning when npu.enable predates the shipped kernel
(amdxdna needs 6.14+, intel_vpu wants recent). Downstream default is 6.18,
which already carries amd-pstate + amdxdna; the reference host pins latest.
- VM test (checks.hardware-toggles, pkgs.testers.runNixOSTest): boots a
minimal VM with the toggles on and asserts the config landed — amd_pstate
+ i915.enable_guc in /proc/cmdline, fprintd.service present, pam_fprintd in
/etc/pam.d/sudo. Passing. (Hardware behaviour still needs bare metal.)
Docs: README + template note latestKernel; ROADMAP records the hardening.

console.useXkbConfig and boot.initrd.systemd.enable are set distro-wide
(lib.mkDefault true in modules/nixos/default.nix, since the LUKS-keymap
fix), so the installer rewriting them in the generated system.nix was
redundant. Drop them there and from the offline-pin test fixture in
flake.nix — the nomarchy module still defaults them on, so the closure
(and the pin set) is unchanged; verified the values still resolve true
and `nix flake check` passes. Only the machine-specific xkb layout is
written now. Adjusts the README keyboard-option wording to match.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Plymouth boot splash ported from the legacy branch (modules/nixos/
plymouth/): logo + eased progress + LUKS entry, background tinted from
theme-state.json via the new nomarchy.system.stateFile (wired by
mkFlake/lib.nix; null → Tokyo Night fallback). Default on; OFF on the
live ISO (boot-message visibility on the install medium). Pulls
boot.initrd.systemd, which also drives the keyboard-at-LUKS feature.
- system.nixos.distroName = "Nomarchy" (os-release PRETTY_NAME,
systemd-boot entries, ISO menu label). distroId left "nixos" (feeds
DEFAULT_HOSTNAME + upstream isNixos checks — roadmapped).
- nixpkgs.config.allowUnfree distro-wide (here + both import-nixpkgs
sites) — unblocks claude-code for the menu's ask-Claude module.
- systemd-boot.configurationLimit = 10 so entries don't fill the ESP.
- Live ISO: nomarchy.idle.enable = false — hypridle was suspending the
VM mid-install (the install-hung regression); installed systems keep it.
- flake.nix offline pins (verified 0-leak via a foreign-identity
gap-analysis probe): the repo's own standalone HM gen + inputDerivations,
mustache-go + stdenv (stylix re-renders base16 per switch), microcode-amd/
intel (enableRedistributableFirmware activated updateMicrocode →
source-build cascade), buildEnv's builder.pl, findXMLCatalogs, and the
representativeInstall mirror (xkb/initrd-systemd/microcode).

nixpkgs.config.allowUnfree in the system module (covers the live ISO
via useGlobalPkgs and every mkFlake machine) plus the two explicit
`import nixpkgs` sites (repo + lib.nix) so the standalone HM desktop
sees the same package set. Unblocks claude-code for the menu system's
ask-Claude module, vendor drivers, etc. Opt out with
`nixpkgs.config = lib.mkForce { allowUnfree = false; }`.

Roadmap items 1+2 plus the issues found testing on a Latitude 5410:
- Ship the 10 most popular Nerd Fonts by default (iosevka swapped for
mononoki: 1.1 GB vs 27 MB) and warn from nomarchy-theme-sync when a
configured fonts.mono/fonts.ui family isn't installed (fc-match) —
fontconfig substitutes silently otherwise.
- hardware.enableRedistributableFirmware: installed systems shipped NO
firmware blobs (wifi/SOF audio/BT) — nixos-generate-config only emits
microcode lines referencing this flag, it never sets it.
- Live ISO wifi: networking.wireless.enable = mkForce false killed
NetworkManager's supplicant — since 26.05 the NM module drives its
wifi backend THROUGH networking.wireless (dbusControlled). Devices
vanished from nmtui with iwlwifi loaded and no rfkill block.
- Hyprland 0.55: launch sessions via start-hyprland (watchdog; bare
binary warns), add the new gesture keyword (workspace_swipe is gone —
touchpads had no gestures at all), media keys via wpctl/bindel/bindl
plus the missing mic/play/next/prev binds.
- Offline theme switching: pin mustache-go + stdenv + the repo's own
standalone HM generation (incl. home-files inputDerivation) into the
ISO — stylix re-renders base16 templates per switch and an offline
`apply` cascaded into building stdenv from source (1107 drvs).
Verified with tools/vm/gap-analysis.py: 17 config drvs, zero fetches.
- Stylix: track release-26.05 (kills the HM version-skew warning and
the stale home-manager follows), lock updated.
- Roadmap: swaync (no notification daemon ships today).

Installed machines and the downstream template now resolve nomarchy from
git+https://git.bemagri.xyz/bernardo/nomarchy.git?ref=v1 (the lock's
original node carries the ref too), so `nix flake update` follows the
release branch instead of the forge's default branch. README quickstart
points at the real forge.

Round 7 in-VM: autodetection emitted common-cpu-intel, whose nixos-hardware
module pulls the whole Intel graphics stack (intel-media-driver,
compute-runtime, libva, level-zero…) — none of it on the ISO, so the
offline install built graphics drivers from source. The representative
pin now imports the common-* profiles (intel+amd cpu/gpu, laptop, ssd,
pc), covering what the detector emits on ordinary machines.
Model-specific profiles may still need network.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Walking the install-shaped toplevel's drv graph against the ISO's actual
path set (tools/gap analysis) found why offline installs kept building
from source:
- system-path is rebuilt on EVERY machine: buildEnv's package-list order
follows module-graph order, which any hardware profile reshuffles →
pin its builders (texinfo, getconf)
- greetd.toml embeds the auto-login user and is generated by remarshal;
building remarshal offline drags its test closure (matplotlib → ffmpeg
→ x265…, ~1900 drvs) → pin pkgs.remarshal
- second-level tools for the always-rebuilt drvs: kmod.dev +
nukeReferences (modules-shrunk), xorg.lndir (unit dirs), libxslt.bin
(dbus config), python3Minimal (etc)
- the representative pin now has a vfat /boot like a real install
(mtools/dosfstools enter systemPackages via the vfat fs-type gate)
Verified on the host: the remaining offline build set for a foreign
username/hostname/UUID config is 66 trivial config drvs + eval-time file
copies from the pinned nixpkgs tree — zero network. Same check for the
per-username HM activation: 15 drvs, offline-clean.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The full system build closure adds ~134 GB to the store and would have
produced an unusable multi-ten-GB ISO. Back to targeted inputDerivation
pins; the still-missing second-level build tools get pinned explicitly
next, from a clean committed-tree gap analysis.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Round 6 still hit a from-source cascade: every per-machine drv (units,
initrd pieces, dbus config, modules-shrunk) needs its own build tools
(lndir, builder.pl, kmod-dev, nuke-refs, libxslt-bin, …), one level
deeper than targeted inputDerivation pins reach. Use the documented
mechanism instead: system.includeBuildDependencies = true on the
representative install pin. Bigger ISO, networkless installs.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Offline nixos-install still built from source: the drvs that embed the
user's hostname/username/UUIDs (etc, initrd, toplevel, HM activation)
must be REBUILT, and their builders need tools outside every runtime
closure (etc → python3-minimal, initrd → packing tools). Pin each drv's
inputDerivation into the ISO — the standard nixos-test offline trick.
Also: with no network every substituter query is a DNS retry storm that
ends in a nix goal.cc assertion crash (core dump observed); the installer
now probes connectivity and disables substituters when offline, both on
the live system and inside the nixos-enter HM pre-activation.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The offline nixos-install failed building from source: the generated
config enables snapper/auto-login/LUKS-initrd/swapfile-resume on a BTRFS
root, none of which the bare template (ext4 placeholder!) pulls in — so
snapper, nixos-rebuild-snap, btrfs-progs-lib and cryptsetup-bin were
absent from the ISO. The pinned system now mirrors the installer's output
(closure-diff verified).

disko builds its format/mount script at install time; offline, the
script's tool closure (file, which, wrapper hooks) wasn't on the ISO and
nix tried to build it from source — which needs the network. Pre-building
one representative script (luks + swap variant) pins every input; the
user's actual invocation then differs only in the final text-generation
derivation, which builds offline in seconds.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Found by running the unattended install in an offline QEMU VM:
- compgen is missing from nixpkgs' non-interactive bash (the package
shebang) — replaced with plain glob tests in hardware-db and prewipe
- disko's eval resolves <nixpkgs> via NIX_PATH (a dead channel on the
ISO) and tried channels.nixos.org — export NIX_PATH to the pinned
nixpkgs source and point the flake registry at an empty baked file
- lock nomarchy by path (the source the ISO carries) instead of
git+https: git inputs clone even when narHash is known, which kills
offline installs; `original` keeps the forge URL so a later
`nix flake update` re-resolves normally. Works from dirty-tree ISOs too.

Ported from the previous iteration's installer (3bdfc35), adapted to the
mkFlake world. gum TUI: disk pick, optional LUKS2, user/hostname/timezone,
DMI → nixos-hardware autodetection (hardware-db.sh). disko partitions
GPT + 1 GiB ESP + BTRFS subvolumes; the generated machine flake lands at
~user/.nomarchy (one mkFlake call, /etc/nixos symlinks to it) and
nixos-install makes it bootable (UEFI/systemd-boot, v1 single disk).
Offline by construction: the target flake.lock is composed from the rev
the ISO was built from (compose-lock.py), `nix flake archive` seeds the
target store, and the ISO pre-builds the template system + desktop.
First boot lands themed: the HM generation is pre-activated in chroot.
mkFlake grows two things for this: hardwareProfile now also takes a list
(autodetection emits several common-* modules), and installed systems get
the standalone home-manager CLI from the pinned input. Unattended mode
(NOMARCHY_UNATTENDED=1 + env) documented in docs/TESTING.md §4.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Downstream users now own only system.nix and home.nix; their flake.nix is
generated once from the template and never hand-edited. mkFlake (lib.nix)
wires both layers and maps hardwareProfile = "<name>" to nixos-hardware
modules (new input, pinned here, nixpkgs follows ours; unknown names fail
with did-you-mean suggestions). Flake checks evaluate the template through
mkFlake — including a real profile — so drift fails `nix flake check`.
Also from the live-VM testing session: install the home-manager CLI in the
live ISO and pin flake inputs transitively (offline theme switching needs
stylix's own inputs too), plus swww→awww doc updates.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
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.
