Doctor Waybar indicator now emits a non-empty glyph () + class:bad when
unhealthy (was "text":"" → self-hidden, so the tripwire never showed);
Control Center appearance toggles (blur/gaps) print "(requires rebuild)"
matching the other CC toggles; summer-day workspace scroll e±1 → r±1 to
match every other bar.
Worktree agent; diff reviewed + cherry-picked. V0 flake check + V1
(HM generation, nomarchy-control-center build). V2 render folded into #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.

Bernardo-directed triage: bump the no-VM (V0/V1) PROPOSED items into NEXT
so parallel worktree agents can take them without contending for the VM.
Grouped into #47 docs+string drift pass, #48 i2c option-docs, #49
pure-contract checks.* batch, #50 small code one-liners. Removed the
promoted pitches from PROPOSED (breadcrumbs left); V2-wanting items stay
in PROPOSED.

Six self-gating hardware checks in nomarchy-doctor, same ok/bad/warn/skip
+ one-fix-command contract: NetworkManager connectivity, default PipeWire
sink, VA-API/OpenGL smoke (only if vainfo/glxinfo present), fprintd unit +
enroll nudge, fwupd daemon + a soft warn when get-updates is non-empty,
and the laptop charge_control_end_threshold when a limit is set. Each
skips cleanly when its tool/service/device is absent, so the section
shrinks to the machine and never hard-fails on a missing feature.
Implemented by a worktree-isolated agent in parallel with the #46 install
VM; diff reviewed and cherry-picked here. Verified V0 (flake check) + V1
(nix build .#…pkgs.nomarchy-doctor — build-time bash -n + shellcheck),
re-run on main after cherry-pick; plus a read-only run on real hardware
(all six checks fired + self-gated). V2 (checks.doctor fakes) pending.

Add a self-gated Firmware row to the System submenu (present whenever
fwupdmgr is on PATH, i.e. services.fwupd.enable — default-on), its
dispatch, and a `firmware` handler that opens a terminal and runs
fwupdmgr refresh → get-updates → y/N confirm → fwupdmgr update. Never
auto-flashes: fwupdmgr update confirms each device and prompts for the
reboot a capsule needs (pillar 1 — no silent BIOS writes). HARDWARE.md
§4 updated to "shipped".
Verified V0 (nix flake check --no-build) + V1 (HM generation builds;
generated nomarchy-menu passes bash -n; firmware handler emitted
correctly). V2 (menu render in a session) queued in #43 and V3 (real
LVFS flash) in HARDWARE-QUEUE — the VM was held by the #46 install test.

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.

The default desktop showed a red Hyprland config-error banner on every
boot, occluding the Waybar. Root cause: Hyprland 0.53 rewrote window
rules — the `windowrulev2` keyword is a hard error and the old
rule-first order (`float, class:^…$`) no longer parses, so the float
rules were not applying either. Confirmed against the Hyprland 0.55.4
source (`handleWindowrule`): each comma field is now `<keyword> <value>`,
so effects carry a value and matchers take a `match:` prefix.
Migrated the 7-rule block to `float 1, match:class ^…$` form.
Verified: V0 nix flake check --no-build; built the generated
hyprland.conf; V2 theme-shot re-render — banner gone, themed Waybar
renders. Journal + MEMORY gotcha added.

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).
Pass bare swapSize "0" when the user wants no swap (was "0G", which
still created @swap). Accept "0"/"0G" in disko-config. Unattended
installs require NOMARCHY_LUKS_PASSPHRASE or explicit NOMARCHY_NO_LUKS=1
instead of silently installing cleartext.
Verified: bash -n; nix-instantiate subvolume sets for 0/0G/16G.
VISION § v1.0 install golden path (workflow test iteration).
Add docs/VISION.md (product themes, v1.0 bar, agent slice hints) and
README maps under docs/ and agent/. Point ROADMAP, BACKLOG, LOOP,
CLAUDE, HARDWARE, and the root README at the split: VISION = intent,
BACKLOG = executable queue, ROADMAP = design history, .claude = harness
only. Mark v1.0 track in BACKLOG PROPOSED for human triage.
Make the downstream template the single source of truth for machine
flakes: nomarchy-install copies flake/system/home/theme-state and
patch-template.py only fills hostname, user, keyboard, detected
hardware, snapper, resume, and password. Install and flake-init users
now share the same commented opt-ins and starter home.packages.
Also: BACKLOG boreal-as-default proposal; installer audit notes;
HARDWARE.md from prior work if uncommitted.
Add docs/HARDWARE.md (layers, install path, firmware/fingerprint/NVIDIA
deep dives, unsupported machines, contributing a DMI line). Link from
README and MIGRATION; queue firmware UI, doctor checks, detect-hw CLI,
and related PROPOSED items in BACKLOG.
Record PROPOSED findings from a full tree exam (installer, modules,
docs drift, CI) and a 24-theme design pass (contrast green; btop
fidelity, identity semantics, whole-swap gaps). No code changes —
await human triage into NOW/NEXT.
- Fixed invalid `windowrule` syntax when matching by class regex
which caused Hyprland parse errors.
- Documented IPC socket watcher for display profiles in README.
- Updated agent/JOURNAL.md.
Added satty (Wayland-native screenshot annotation tool) and integrated it with the Capture flow.
Wired `$mod SHIFT, Print` to slurp a region and open satty.
Added "Annotate region" to the rofi Capture menu (Tools > Capture).
Added satty's configuration via home-manager to inject the active theme's palette colors into its UI.
Verified: V1 (flake check --no-build, home activation package build).
Pending: V3 hardware/visual check for the satty UI (queued in HARDWARE-QUEUE.md).
Changed home.stateVersion assignment to use lib.mkDefault instead of a plain assignment.
This fixes downstream flakes that need to migrate existing NixOS installations without bumping their state version.
Verified: V1 (flake check --no-build, home activation package build).
Pending: nothing.
Research iteration (LOOP §1). Findings: the state-file path is robust;
the real stability hole is the eval-only automated lock-bump gate (#14)
with no binary cache, whose true fix is the KVM-blocked #20. Usefulness:
the capture suite lacks a screenshot annotate step. Filed 2 PROPOSED —
an interim build-tier lock gate (no KVM) and a satty annotate step.
V0 (docs-only).

Headless-actionable backlog is empty (NEXT is all human/hw/V3-visual).
Ran the full scripted suite: flake check green; option-docs and
theme-contrast checks built+passed; theme-design audit shows only
pre-curated identity findings; templates in sync with the live surface.
No churn manufactured. V0-verified.

Item 28 color-only accessibility sweep. Swept every Waybar status
indicator for shape/glyph redundancy: all already carry non-color
distinction (updates shows a count + self-hides; vpn/doctor/nightlight/
recording self-gate; battery/idle/muted are glyph-distinct) except the
swaync notification module — its `inhibited-*` states reused the normal
bells (/), so an app-inhibited (suppressed) state was distinguished
from a normal one by color alone.
Route every suppressed state (DND + inhibited) to the bell-off glyph
+ @muted, so "notifications are off right now" reads by SHAPE. Applied
to the generated bar and all four whole-swaps (summer-day/night use
their own bell-off glyph; executive-slate/boreal use ) — parity rule.
Reuses the glyph DND already ships, so no new codepoint / tofu risk.
Verified: V0 (flake check --no-build; 4 jsoncs valid JSON) + V1 (built
homeConfigurations.nomarchy.activationPackage — the built config has
inhibited-* = U+F009B and style.css routes .inhibited-* → @muted).
V3 pending: live inhibited-state render with an app holding an inhibitor
(HARDWARE-QUEUE). MEMORY gains the "status is never color-only" invariant.

Bernardo asked whether TuringMachine (NixOS 25.11) could adopt Nomarchy
without a reinstall, keeping all files. It can — it's a config switch that
reuses the existing hardware-configuration.nix, not a reformat. Adds
docs/MIGRATION.md: a generic "existing NixOS → Nomarchy" walkthrough with
TuringMachine as the worked example — candidacy checklist, the two
data-safety rules (never bump system.stateVersion; /home untouched), a
reversible Phase 0→4 (btrfs snapshot → build-only gate → nixos-rebuild
test → reconcile → cutover) and a triple rollback net. Bakes his decisions:
Nomarchy PPD (drop all ryzenadj), no Secure Boot (drop lanzaboote), full
cutover. Flake/system/home examples verified against lib.nix mkFlake +
templates/downstream, not guessed.
Also files a PROPOSED note: home.stateVersion should be mkDefault so
migrating users don't need mkForce.

Item 42, de-scoped by Bernardo to app-only — no account sync (the user
configures that themselves locally). Clicking the Waybar date/clock now
runs nomarchy-calendar → calcurse in a floating, centered ghostty window
tagged --class=com.nomarchy.calendar (+ --gtk-single-instance=false for a
fresh standalone window), matched by a float+size+center windowrule. The
launcher self-gates on calcurse. Dropped the clock's format-alt date
toggle (conflicts with on-click) and moved the long date into the tooltip.
Parity: on-click added to all four whole-swap jsoncs.
Ships calcurse + pwvucontrol uncommented in the downstream template
(opt-out). Enforces ghostty always installed (ghostty.nix: enable = true
unconditional; nomarchy.ghostty.enable now gates only the theming/config)
so the --class launcher can rely on it.
Verified: V0 green; four jsoncs valid JSON; V1 HM built — launcher ships,
generated clock renders on-click=nomarchy-calendar (format-alt gone, date
in tooltip), hyprland has the 3 calendar windowrules, ghostty in the HM
profile. Click→float→calcurse month view is V3 (queued). Sync is
deliberately the user's own config, not a distro feature.

Bernardo wants clicking the Waybar date module to open a calendar showing
events synced from the user's accounts, opening instantly (not Thunderbird-
slow). Investigated (2026-07-08): recommend the split model — khal (TUI in
a floating, palette-themed ghostty window) + vdirsyncer for CalDAV/Google
sync — over calcurse (local-first, weaker sync) or GNOME Calendar (GUI,
best Google onboarding but not instant). Flags the two design wrinkles:
credentials are the one legit out-of-flake secret, and Google OAuth needs a
self-registered client_id. Placed in NEXT as [big] with slices (a) viewer
+ click wiring, (b) sync + accounts, (c) events-in-tooltip.

Bernardo asked whether TLP would be more power-efficient and worth making
the default. Logged in § Decisions with the evidence gathered 2026-07-08:
TLP's gain is idle-only and unquantified (its own maintainer won't cite
numbers), the sibling distro Omarchy tried TLP-for-battery and reverted to
PPD, and TLP-default would rework the powerprofilesctl-based profile UX.
Agent recommendation: keep PPD, chase battery via targeted low-risk tweaks
+ keep TLP the one-line opt-in. Decision itself stays with Bernardo.

Item 36(b). Adds `nomarchy-menu powermgmt` — one flat rofi menu of power
Profile rows (→ powerprofilesctl set) + Charge limit rows (→ the same
theme-sync writer batterylimit uses), each half self-gating on its
hardware. No backend duplication; Custom charge stays in the dedicated
batterylimit picker.
Opened two ways (Bernardo's call): the Waybar battery icon AND the
power-profile icon — the profile icon's click flips from cycle → menu.
Wired in waybar.nix and all four whole-swaps (parity). Named `powermgmt`
to avoid the whole-swaps' existing `custom/powermenu` shutdown button
(→ nomarchy-menu power), which is left untouched. The granular System ▸
Power profile / Battery limit rows stay ("keep both").
nomarchy-powerprofile-cycle kept as a standalone bin, now unbound by
default.
Verified: V0 green; V1 HM built (bash -n) — powermgmt case ships, the
generated waybar-config.json wires both icons (2 hits), all four jsoncs
re-wired and still parse, shutdown buttons intact. Click→menu→apply is
V3 (queued).

Iteration #66 (direct request: "make sure menu items that have a keybind
display it"). Audit found every SUPER(+CTRL) module-opening row already
hinted (item 28c); the one gap was Tools ▸ Capture — its Region/Full
screen rows run the exact grim commands of the Print / SHIFT+Print /
CTRL+Print binds but showed nothing. Adds `hintForBind mods key` (matches
keybinds.nix by mods+key, so no drift and no brittle full-action compare)
and `-markup-rows` on the Capture menu so the spans render.
Verified: V0 green; V1 HM built — shipped nomarchy-menu shows
`Region → clipboard {{Print}}`, `Region → file {{SHIFT + Print}}`,
`Full screen → file {{CTRL + Print}}`. Substring case-matches precede the
appended span, so dispatch is unchanged. V3 (pango dim render) queued.

He supplied a reference `power-menu` rofi script (battery charge + power
profile rows, icon protocol, notify-send). Un-gates the design hold on
36(b): records the shape + the Nomarchy adaptation (reuse the existing
batterylimit/power-profile writers instead of raw TLP; wire the Waybar
battery module on-click). One [human] call left: replace the separate
System rows or keep both surfaces.

Item 32. Item 26 added SHIFT to the modmask but kept the shifted keysym
`question`, so the bind stayed dead. Hyprland 0.55 resolves a bind's
keysym with SHIFT consumed (issue #7750, behaviour since 0.43): with
Shift held, `$mod SHIFT, question` is matched against `slash` and never
fires. The base keysym is what works — same pattern as this file's own
`$mod SHIFT, 1` workspace binds. Also updates rofi.nix prettyKeys to
collapse "SHIFT + /" → "?" so the cheatsheet row still reads "SUPER + ?".
Verified: V0 `nix flake check --no-build` green; V1 HM activation built,
built hyprland.conf carries `bind=$mod SHIFT, slash, exec, nomarchy-menu
keybinds` (kb_layout=us → slash is `?`). The keypress opening the menu is
V3 — queued (HARDWARE-QUEUE, existing SUPER+? entry updated).

Add a `batterylimit` nomarchy-menu subcommand — a preset picker
(80/90/60/Off/Custom…) that writes settings.power.batteryChargeLimit via
theme-sync (--no-switch; lands on the next sys-rebuild, power.nix's oneshot
applies it). Surfaced as a first-class System row, self-gated on the
charge_control_end_threshold sysfs node like Power profile.
Moved out of the gum control-center (removed its Battery Limit case +
choose entry) so the toggle lives in one place — the rofi menu Bernardo
actually uses, per his request.

Conservative first cut of the floating-window audit (item 41): float and
center the two shipped, unambiguous config dialogs — blueman
(manager/adapters) and system-config-printer — alongside the mixer. Uses
(?i) class regexes tolerant of the XWayland `.…-wrapped` form, consistent
with the existing (?i) usage in this file.
Deliberately conservative: network is dmenu/nmtui (no GUI editor), and the
polkit prompt + GTK file portals are deferred because their window class
can't be verified headlessly — a guessed class is a dead rule. Those wait
for a hardware `hyprctl clients` read (queued).

Right-clicking the Waybar volume module now opens pwvucontrol (per-app
mixer); left-click still mutes. Adds:
- on-click-right in waybar.nix + all four whole-swap jsoncs (parity)
- hyprland.nix: the config's first windowrule block — float + center the
mixer (pwvucontrol, with pavucontrol as a fallback class); normal-
priority list so a downstream windowrule concatenates
- pwvucontrol in the template home.packages
pwvucontrol is PipeWire-native + GTK4/libadwaita, so it themes via the
portal color-scheme like Amberol. app-id verified from the built package.
This settles the windowrule pattern/placement; item 41 is now just
broadening the float set. Right-click→float→center is a V3 session check.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Investigating the right-click mixer showed the config has zero
windowrules today, so the float rule needs the infrastructure item 41 is
meant to design list-first. Recorded the gate + the mixer recommendation
(pwvucontrol, app-id com.saivert.pwvucontrol) so the research is not lost.
