- 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; }`.

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.

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.
