A session crashed after shipping the fingerprint/idle/menu batch. The work
itself survived intact: 625b7e3, e2de906, fbbeac6, 9792976 and eb38008 are
committed and pushed, and each did its own sync sweep — BACKLOG #115/#116
filed, HARDWARE-QUEUE carrying the toggle test and the removed fprintd trap,
docs and template updated. Only the journal was owed, so the next session
would have read docking round 7 as the head and missed five iterations of
context, including two live bugs the batch exposed.
Reconstructed from the commit messages rather than from memory, and marked
as such in the file — the commits are the record, this is an index into
them. The entries keep what the messages proved and what they left pending,
notably the lesson from fbbeac6 (the lock field has never been visible; I
assumed it was and reasoned from there) and the one from 625b7e3 (a check
that passes whether or not the property holds is worse than no check).
V0: nix flake check --no-build passes. Docs-only.
Noted, not done: the journal is at 56 entries against its own ~25 rotation
threshold — it was already 51 before this, so the tail is overdue for
JOURNAL-ARCHIVE.md. That is its own commit, not this one's business.

The last unproven half of bec826b, and it needed a keyboard that stays behind
when the dock leaves. The dev box's by-tech hangs off the BenQ's own hub, so
it always walked away with the cable — a Logitech K400 with its receiver in
the laptop is the real case, and Bernardo happened to plug one in.
Both halves measured on hardware (dev box, 2026-07-14):
- PRIMARY: across a real unplug + the fixed transition, the K400 kept its
remembered `us`. Panel back, layout intact.
- CONTROL: a bare `hyprctl reload` with no restore took the same board from
`us` to the session's `gb`.
The control matters more than the pass. That reload clobbers runtime
`device[<name>]:kb_layout` was an inference from the mechanism when
restore_keyboards was written — reasonable, but unmeasured, and this session
has already shown what unmeasured reasoning about this watcher is worth.
It holds: without that call the undock's escalation would have silently
broken the layout of every keyboard that outlives the cable, trading a black
panel for a keyboard that types the wrong characters at the password prompt.
Verified V2 again after the comment/doc edits: nix flake check --no-build,
checks.docking-ux, shellcheck clean.
Round 8 now asks only for what is still open: relogin (the watcher calls the
transition by baked store path, so exec-once means it runs the old build
until then) and repetition — 5+ unplugs, one with the lid shut.

Round 7 FAILED: 5-6 consecutive unplugs on the dev box, the panel never came
back. Round 6's retry could not have worked, because round 6's diagnosis was
wrong — and so was the "phantom re-add" theory I brought to this session.
With ZERO enabled outputs — panel disabled by the dock, external gone —
Hyprland 0.55.4 accepts `hyprctl keyword monitor eDP-1,preferred,auto,1`,
prints `ok`, exits 0, and never flushes it: the rule waits for a DRM event
that is not coming. It is inert, not raced. Retrying it 25x/poll for 6 polls
bought 30s of black screen and nothing else.
What made this survive two rounds is worth more than the fix: every
`transition=undock result=ok` in the round-6 journal was Bernardo plugging
the cable back in because the screen was black. His hotplug flushed the
queued rule and the next poll took the credit. Success was indistinguishable
from the user working around the failure, so the logs confirmed whichever
story we brought to them. Ten minutes of probing on hardware killed both.
Probed live 2026-07-14 (dev box, cable out): keyword inert across 4s and 5s
in two runs; `dispatch forcerendererreload` inert too; only `hyprctl reload`
escapes — 99ms and 289ms. So: issue the keyword (enough whenever another
output is still enabled, e.g. the menu's Dock mode), and escalate to reload
only when `monitors` proves it inert. After a reload, re-assert the rule so a
config that parks the panel off cannot undo the undock, and restore per-device
keyboard layouts — a reload re-reads the config and drops the runtime
`device[<name>]:kb_layout` an external board depends on. The menu's `enable`
now proves itself against `monitors` too, instead of cheering for an exit code.
Verified V3 (partial): the fixed transition driven through a real unplug —
panel on, workspaces 1-3 home, 1.8s, `keyword=inert escalate=reload` ->
`enable=via-reload` -> `result=ok`. V2: nix flake check --no-build; docking-ux
+ dock-audio; monitor-fallback.nix; shellcheck clean on display-transition.
NOT proven, and queued as HARDWARE-QUEUE round 8: the watcher-driven path
(exec-once + baked store path = relogin required, the round-5 trap) and
repetition. The keyboard-restore path is untested — the dev box's keyboard
hangs off the dock's hub, so it leaves with the cable; round 8 adds a check
with a keyboard in the laptop. The VM harness still cannot reach any of this:
QEMU aborts Hyprland if the last active output is deleted while the DRM output
is disabled, which is the same zero-output degeneracy from the other side.
New BACKLOG #114 (PROPOSED): tuigreet ignores per-device keyboard layouts —
a VT has one keymap, so the greeter cannot honour `device[]:kb_layout`.
Bernardo hit it logging out while docked; not a regression, a design gap.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Bernardo's round 6 report plus the keyboard result confirms on hardware:
wallpaper on the external, automatic dock mode, audio reaching the
monitor, and the external keyboard prompting exactly once (was four).
That leaves headphone jack-follow as the only count from rounds 4-6 never
tested at all, so it gets its own entry rather than staying buried in a
list of settled ones. Fold it into the round 7 session — the dock is
already in hand and the two checks don't interfere.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Round 6 passed on the plug side but unplugging the cable left the laptop
panel black until it was re-docked. The journal named it: across three
undocks, two logged result=enable-timeout and one result=ok — a race, not
a logic error.
Two halves, both needed:
- `hyprctl keyword monitor eDP-1,preferred,auto,1` is accepted (exit 0)
while Hyprland is still tearing down the departing external, then
silently dropped. Re-issue it on every poll for 5s and keep `monitors`
listing the panel — not hyprctl's exit code — as the only proof.
- The watcher fired the undock once off the removal event and marked the
departure handled regardless (`|| true` + awaiting_lid_open=1). Since
known_outputs had already moved, the set-changed guard never reopened
and nothing retried, so one lost keyword cost the panel until re-dock.
The undock is now a queued invariant driven on the 1s tick, bounded at
6 attempts so a genuinely unenableable panel can't pin the inhibitor.
The VM harness cannot reach this race: QEMU's headless backend aborts
Hyprland if the last active output is deleted while the DRM output is
disabled, so the test must undock before removing DP-1 and never collides
the two. Noted there, and V3 queued as round 7 — unplug 5+ times, since
the old failure only hit ~2 in 3.
Verified: V2 — nix flake check --no-build; monitor-fallback.nix exit 0 in
57s; shellcheck clean. The fix itself is V3 pending.

BACKLOG #99: the live-session seed (nomarchy-seed-flake) did a bare
`cp -r` with no `git init`, so `~/.nomarchy` was not a repo in the live
session and nomarchy-doctor's `git ls-files --error-unmatch
theme-state.json` false-alarmed "theme-state.json is NOT git-tracked"
(installed systems commit at nomarchy-install.sh:654 and were always
fine). The seed now init+add+commits, exactly like the installer.
Verified: V2 — focused serial-log VM run
(/tmp/nomarchy-v2-theme-99/): doctor prints "theme-state.json is
git-tracked" and "flake checkout is clean"; GIT_REPO_OK / TRACKED_OK
markers. A drv-equivalence test proves the seed change is
build-neutral: homeConfigurations.<user>.activationPackage is
byte-identical path-seeded vs git-seeded
(bvl30ggn...-home-manager-generation.drv). nix flake check green.
The same run exposed a separate, pre-existing failure — offline theme
switching in the live session rebuilds from source and dies offline —
filed as BACKLOG #113 (NOT caused by this change: same drv either way).

Session wrap-up: progress notes so the next iteration resumes without
re-deriving — #94 installed-chromium path proven at V1 (live posture is
the gap, #103 covers it), #98 ruled out palette-level causes, #99
root-caused (live seed lacks git init) with the fix drafted but held on
the open live offline theme-switch failure; a serial-log VM run is in
flight. V0 (notes only); two deliberate working-tree drafts documented
in the entries.

BACKLOG #96 + #97 (Acer live pass). Battery limit: the System row now
gates on battery presence (same rule as Power profile) instead of the
charge-threshold sysfs node, so firmware without the control gets the
leaf's explanation ("no charge_control_end_threshold — hardware
capability") rather than a silently missing row that reads as a broken
feature. Bluetooth: the leaf checks bluetooth.service before launching
blueman-manager and replaces the raw "Connection to BlueZ failed" with
a state-aware message (service stopped vs no adapter in
/sys/class/bluetooth, with rfkill/firmware hints).
Verified: V1 — nomarchy-menu builds, bash -n green, both paths in the
generated script; V0 flake check green. QEMU can fake neither a
threshold-less battery nor a BT adapter: #96 behavioral check queued in
HARDWARE-QUEUE (Acer + T14s); #97's no-adapter message will be
click-checked in the next VM run (V2 pending).

BACKLOG #107: both submenus get conflict-free direct bindings through
the canonical keybinds.nix (single source for Hyprland binds and the
SUPER+? cheatsheet) — I follows the Super+I settings muscle memory,
T is Tools. The root-menu rows now show the shortcuts via menuHint.
Verified: V2 — eval audit: 41 binds, no duplicate mods+key; both binds
present in the generated Hyprland config; built nomarchy-menu passes
bash -n with cheatsheet rows + hints rendered. In-session on the live
ISO KVM run: viewed 40-system-menu.png / 41-tools-menu.png in
/tmp/nomarchy-v2-swap-93/ — each bind opens its submenu directly.
V0 flake check green.

BACKLOG #93 (Acer live pass): the swap field appeared as a bare
prefilled number — gum never renders the placeholder once --value is
set, and the block had no section header, so nothing said what the
value meant. Add a visible "Swap & hibernation" section, two info lines
(default = RAM keeps hibernation possible; 0 = no swap), a labeled
--header on the input, and make the info + Review lines state the
outcome in full ("N GiB swapfile (enables hibernation)" /
"none (hibernation disabled)"). Default behavior unchanged (swap = RAM).
Verified: V2 — interactive KVM UI drive of the built ISO; viewed
10-swap-prompt.png (section + explanations + labeled input) and the
Review box ("Swap: 6 GiB swapfile (enables hibernation)") in
/tmp/nomarchy-v2-swap-93/; the wipe confirmation was aborted, nothing
touched. bash -n + nix flake check --no-build green.
Side-finding recorded on #112: QEMU's /dev/fd0 was listed first by the
disk picker (live repro evidence in the same artifacts).

Round 1 of #101's V3 failed on TuringMachine (2026-07-13 18:16): a
SPACED dock/AC event storm — each run finishing before the next event —
never coalesces, so 5 successful sub-second starts inside systemd's
default 10s window tripped start-limit-hit and marked the unit failed
(doctor badge) although every run succeeded. The write is idempotent
and cheap; rate limiting it only manufactures false failures, so the
unit sets StartLimitIntervalSec=0.
checks.battery-charge-limit now asserts the exemption and runs 8
sequential starts expecting a clean, non-failed state; the original
mid-run coalescing phase is unchanged.
Verified: V2 — the check passes under KVM (exit 0). V0 flake check
green. V3 round 2 re-queued in HARDWARE-QUEUE.

BACKLOG #102: a commented services.nextcloud-client example in the
downstream template (enable + startInBackground) instead of only the
bare package line — the upstream Home Manager module installs the app
AND ties it to graphical-session.target, so one block covers install,
session autostart, and clean removal. No Nomarchy wrapper added.
Verified: V1 — pinned HM 26.05 module options confirmed; eval test of
the uncommented block through lib.mkFlake shows the user unit
(ExecStart nextcloud --background, WantedBy/PartOf
graphical-session.target); nix flake check --no-build green
(template-sot, downstream-template-home included). Runtime lifecycle is
the upstream module's contract.

Promote NEXT items #102-#112 for Nextcloud, live ISO apps, airplane mode, menu navigation and hierarchy, keybinding discoverability, keyboard indicator parity, Control Center retirement, recovery terminology, and installer disk-picker safety. Expand #96 for the live-ISO power policy and record #92's completed KVM UI verification.
Verified: V0 source audit and git diff --check; #92 additionally reached V2 on the exact current ISO under KVM.
Make keyboard typing filter-only with Gum strict mode, validate interactive and unattended choices against the pinned XKB catalog before any disk mutation, and show resolved human-readable choices in review.
Verified: V1 flake eval, focused installer builds, shell/Python/diff checks; current-ISO KVM boot proved the packaged new flow while the pre-destructive interaction pass continued.
Treat the picker-only (none) row as an empty XKB variant at the shared input boundary and again in the template patcher. Guard the real downstream output and console keymap, and carry the sentinel through the offline installer VM.
Verified: V0 full flake evaluation plus shell/Python/Nix/diff checks; V1 installer-keyboard, installer-safety, and template-SoT builds; V2 full KVM offline LUKS+swap install and themed first boot. No V3 required.
USB-C power event bursts could repeatedly restart and SIGTERM the settling oneshot until systemd reached its start limit. Let successful runs return inactive and use coalescing start jobs for immediate and delayed reapplication.
Verified: V0 nix flake check --no-build, module parse, and git diff --check; V2 focused battery-charge-limit KVM test with a 12-event active-run burst. V3 hardware item #101 remains queued.
Restore the old flake's external-only workspace handoff, protect closed-lid cable removal with a verified low-level logind inhibitor, and use monitor-added as the settled audio reprobe boundary.
Verified: V2 — nix flake check --no-build; docking-ux, option-docs, and template-sot checks; KVM tools/monitor-fallback.nix lifecycle test.
V3 pending: closed-lid BenQ round 4 in agent/HARDWARE-QUEUE.md.
Record the Acer Aspire install and session feedback as separate NOW items #91-#99, with the literal (none) XKB build blocker first and acceptance criteria for each issue.
Verified: V0 — source screenshots reviewed and git diff --check passed. Implementation verification remains item-specific.
Real dock QA exposed pointer-bound menus, an absent default rescue watcher, the unsafe zero-output panel-off path, missing keyboard/audio hotplug coverage, and unpainted new outputs.
Route Rofi to the focused output; replace panel disable with safe workspace migration; always run and reconnect the display watcher and repaint hotplugged outputs; expose a default per-device keyboard picker; handle audio card availability transitions.
Verified: V1 — nix flake check --no-build; checks.docking-ux real Home Manager artifact build; option-docs/template-sot; Nix parse, py_compile, and git diff --check. V2 unavailable: no readable KVM. V3 pending in agent/HARDWARE-QUEUE.md.
check.yml has been permanently red since the runner container was
capped at 2 GB (uncapped, it OOM'd the whole 4 GB VPS). Root cause,
measured with GNU time (eval-cache off): `nix flake check --no-build`
walks every output in ONE evaluator process and peaks at ~6.0 GB RSS
on this repo — the checks.* suite alone is ~15 runNixOSTests, each a
full NixOS eval, all accumulating in one heap.
New tools/ci-eval.sh: identical coverage (all checks.* drvPaths, both
nixosConfigurations toplevels, the HM activationPackage — enumerated
dynamically, no drift), one fresh nix process per output so the heap is
freed between outputs. Cold per-output peaks: worst check 0.99 GB
(hardware-toggles), nomarchy toplevel 0.78 GB, HM 0.60 GB; the one
outlier is nomarchy-live at 2.69 GB (live-ISO eval), which fits the
2 GB cap only via the container's swap allowance (docker's default
--memory-swap is 2x memory). check.yml and bump.yml both call the
script now; bump.yml also gains max-jobs=1/cores=2 (it had no limits,
so its V1 build gate could spawn parallel builders in the capped
container). ROADMAP's stale "no CI today" corrected: bump.yml landed
8fded63 on schedule 2026-07-06.
Verified: V1+ — ci-eval.sh green locally end-to-end (3m22s, tree peak
2.75 GB = nomarchy-live's process); per-output peaks measured
individually. The decisive proof is the next Actions run on the VPS
itself — watch the nomarchy-live step; if it OOMs there, the runner
needs swap allowed: --memory=2g --memory-swap=6g.

Bernardo promoted the PROPOSED item live: with fingerprint PAM on,
sudo/login should accept whichever factor comes first instead of
pam_fprintd's wait-for-the-reader-then-password. Stock PAM cannot
express parallel factors (linux-pam#301), so this packages
pam-fprint-grosshack v0.3.0 (pkgs/, pinned from GitLab — the
field-standard fprintd fork), source-reviewed before packaging: every
failure path (no reader, no prints, fprintd absent/hung, timeout,
password typed) returns PAM_AUTHINFO_UNAVAIL and falls through; a
typed password is only ferried via PAM_AUTHTOK to the stock
`auth sufficient pam_unix.so … try_first_pass` rule — the module never
validates passwords itself, so it cannot lock out password login.
New option nomarchy.hardware.fingerprint.parallel, default TRUE (the
better UX is what opting into fingerprint PAM buys; false = stock
sequential). Wiring swaps the modulePath of stock fprintd's rule slot
(mkForce) so the sufficient-before-pam_unix ordering is inherited, not
recomputed. README + downstream template rows added.
Verified: V2 — checks.hardware-toggles extended to three nodes, green:
parallel node asserts the grosshack auth line precedes pam_unix in
/etc/pam.d/sudo and that with NO reader a correct password still
passes sudo while a wrong one fails (the lockout-safety invariant);
seqpam node gets stock pam_fprintd and no grosshack; nopam gets
neither. flake check + option-docs + template-sot green.
V3 pending (HARDWARE-QUEUE, AMD dev box): the real type-or-touch race,
fprintd-stopped fallback, hyprlock/greeter after a fingerprint win.

Bernardo's question: with "Laptop screen off" active, does the panel
come back when the dock is yanked? VM answer (new maintainer harness
tools/monitor-fallback.nix, softGL desktop): no — Hyprland 0.55.4
leaves the session with zero active outputs and never re-enables a
soft-disabled monitor. rescue_blackout in the display hotplug watcher
now re-enables every disabled output (immediate, retried, idempotent
keyword + toast) whenever a monitorremoved leaves nothing active;
independent of the profile auto-switch and its settings gate.
Sharp edge documented rather than hidden: the zero-output state itself
crashes Hyprland in the VM ~4/5 runs (aquamarine CBackend::dispatchIdle
ABRT within ~0.5s — faster than any userland rescue; a control run
removing the external with the panel ACTIVE survives 5/5, so the state
is the trigger, not headless removal; crash reproduced with the rescue
provably inert, so not caused by it). Rescue ships as defense-in-depth:
it recovers every surviving case, and the worst case on real DRM is
session-to-greeter on a re-lit panel instead of a black brick. Rider
fix: `grep -c .` exits 1 at count zero — the ||-guard on that pipeline
silently disabled the rescue exactly when it mattered.
Verified: hazard V2 (VM reproduces the dead state); control
discriminator 5/5; flake check green. V3 pending: real-dock
undock-while-off in HARDWARE-QUEUE (run with nothing important open;
crash on real DRM = rework the row to mirror or wait for a Hyprland
bump).

Bernardo's dock test (the #87 V3): audio stayed on EasyEffects→speakers.
Root cause, established live: WirePlumber's stored default
(default-nodes state, written by any past explicit pick) outranks the
priority.session rules, so #87 alone can never move the default on a
real machine; EasyEffects 8 follows the default device (kcfg default
true, verified by watching its output links). Fix: nomarchy-dock-audio
(modules/home/dock-audio.nix, nomarchy.dockAudio.enable, default on) —
a pactl-subscribe watcher that set-default-sinks new dock-class sinks
(regex data imported from modules/nixos/dock-audio-rules.nix, single
source) with a toast, plus a startup sweep for login-while-docked that
never overrides a manual in-dock pick. Unplug falls back by priority.
Menus: Display gains docked rows — "Laptop screen off · everything →
<ext>" (live-only disable; a persisted one could black-screen an
undocked boot), "Screen on · <name>", "Move workspace · → next
monitor", "Swap workspaces" (exactly-2 gate); Audio gains a self-gated
"Send output → <dock sink>" quick row. All self-gate on real outputs.
Verified: V2-equivalent on live hardware (no dock available) — watcher
followed a fake dock-named null sink and fell back on unload, control
run without the watcher stayed pinned (proving the stored-default
diagnosis), EE output links moved mid-playback; generated menu bash -n
green, dock-row jq exercised on real pactl JSON, dispatchers probed on
live Hyprland; flake check + option-docs + template-sot green.
V3 pending: real-dock retest ×2 in HARDWARE-QUEUE (watcher keys on
new-sink events; pre-existing nodes that only flip route availability
would need the queued diagnosis data).

With settings.autoCommit on, only menu/theme mutations were committed
(theme-sync pathspec-limits to theme-state.json by design), so hand
edits to system.nix/home.nix and lock bumps stayed forever-dirty.
New internal nomarchy-autocommit (nomarchy-lifecycle): live-reads the
same flag, commits everything dirty as "nomarchy: auto-commit before
<pull|rebuild|home switch>" with the swept file list in the body,
fallback identity, never fatal (|| true at call sites). Called at the
top of all three lifecycle commands; before the ff-only pull it also
un-dirties the tree. Exposed via passthru.autocommit + package export;
guarded by checks.lifecycle-autocommit (sandbox repos: sweep, no-op on
clean/off/non-repo). Sync sweep: README, RECOVERY, ROADMAP, rofi
toggle, control-center prompt, theme-sync docstring, JOURNAL.
Verified: V1+ — flake check --no-build green; the new check builds;
end-to-end run of the built nomarchy-rebuild (stubbed sudo/rebuild)
against a copy of a real dirty ~/.nomarchy: 4 files → one commit,
clean tree. No VM boot — no session-visible surface.

BACKLOG #90 root-caused: the arrows were never missing from the icon
theme — Papirus-Dark resolves pan-end-symbolic through its breeze-dark
inheritance (breeze ships inside the nixpkgs papirus output). The real
culprit: Waybar loads its stylesheet screen-wide at application
priority, so the tray menus it hosts for SNI apps (nm-applet & co)
inherit the bar's '* { min-height: 0; }', which out-prioritizes
adw-gtk3's 16px min-height on the menuitem arrow node and collapses
the submenu arrow to zero height. Property bisect confirmed
min-height:0 alone reproduces; the font/border resets don't.
- boreal + executive-slate waybar.css, waybar.nix generatedStyle:
'*' block scoped to 'window#waybar, window#waybar *'; tooltip rules
restate the font (tooltips are separate toplevels outside the scope).
- stylix.nix: drop the go-next-symbolic remap — a workaround for the
misdiagnosis; native pan-end-symbolic resolves fine.
- BACKLOG #90 deleted; JOURNAL entry records the method (live GTK3

One-shot user unit fires a dismissible "You're set" notification on the
first graphical session (SUPER+M / SUPER+T / SUPER+? + Network + Doctor),
then writes settings.firstBootShown into the flake checkout. Skips the
live ISO hostname (hosts/live.nix keeps its own toast). Toggle:
nomarchy.firstBootWelcome.enable. checks.first-boot covers the gate.
Verified: V2 — flake check --no-build; checks.first-boot green; local
shim smoke; downstream-template-home ships the unit.
Report-only cycle_count + retained capacity (charge_* or energy_*) as
% of design on system batteries; soft warn below 70% of design; skip
when attrs missing. NOMARCHY_POWER_SUPPLY_ROOT for the checks.doctor
fixture (test_power has no cycle/design attrs).
Verified: V2 — nix flake check --no-build; checks.doctor green (fake
BAT0 cycles/% + Device-scope ignore); local BAT0 smoke (energy_*).
The Exit node picker listed bare hostnames; Mullvad-style nodes are
meaningless without their location. Rows are now
"hostname — Country City", sliced from `tailscale exit-node list` by
the header's fixed-width column offsets (COUNTRY/CITY can be
multi-word, so field splitting is wrong by construction); nodes without
a location stay a bare hostname, and the pick strips back to the
hostname at the first space before `tailscale set --exit-node`.
Closes BACKLOG LATER "VPN exit-node richer display"; the VPN
HARDWARE-QUEUE entry now covers the location rows.
Verification: V1 — the awk was proven against a fabricated fixture
(one-word city, multi-word "United States / New York, NY", bare
self-hosted node), flake check exit 0, downstream-template-home builds
(writeShellScriptBin syntax-gates the script). Real `tailscale
exit-node list` output stays V3 (existing VPN menu live-paths entry).

Set BOTH nomarchy.nightlight.latitude/.longitude and the night light
switches backing unit: wlsunset computes sunrise/sunset from the
location daily (the fixed .sunrise/.sunset are ignored;
.temperature feeds the night temp). Everything user-facing is
unchanged — same nomarchy-nightlight toggle script, Waybar moon, and
live-state ExecCondition gate; the unit name is a single let-binding
so all three follow together. Declarative-only on purpose: coordinates
are machine config like the keyboard layout, so home.nix (commented
template example), not a menu writer.
checks.nightlight-geo guards the wiring at pure eval: rendered
wlsunset ExecStart carries the coords + night temperature, the
ExecCondition gate landed on the swapped unit, hyprsunset stays off in
geo mode.
Verification: V1 — nix flake check --no-build exit 0 (evals the new
asserts + option-docs sync); built downstream-template-home (default
hyprsunset path unregressed). V3 pending: visible warm shift at the
location's night + instant toggle/off-persistence on the swapped unit
(HARDWARE-QUEUE § Any machine).

New standing rule (LOOP.md §5 step 4, echoed in AGENTS.md): when a task
ships, grep its number/feature name across agent/ and docs/ and update
or delete every cross-reference it made stale, in the same commit —
including pruning checked-off [x] HARDWARE-QUEUE entries whose outcome
is recorded (journal/ROADMAP; git history is the archive).
First application: BACKLOG PROPOSED groomed (the auto time-of-day theme
pitch was stale — shipped as #79; shipped/promoted placeholder lines
removed; v1.0 pointer rewritten; FUTURE promoted-stub dropped);
HARDWARE-QUEUE pruned of 29 checked entries (363→253 lines) with
dangling references reworded and the prune rule documented in its
header.
Also closes the zram user-doc gap: README §3 now documents the zram
default (zstd/50%/prio 100), hibernation working out of the box on new
installs, and the MIGRATION.md runbook for existing machines.
Verification: V0 (docs/meta only).

The repo is maintained by agents from multiple vendors, so agent
instructions move out of vendor-specific locations into shared,
git-tracked markdown:
- AGENTS.md is the new entry point for any harness; CLAUDE.md becomes a
symlink to it (Claude Code keeps working unchanged).
- Skill bodies relocate to agent/: VERIFICATION.md (the enforcement
rules, ex .claude/skills/nomarchy), DELEGATION.md (capability tiers
light/standard/frontier, scout/runner role contracts, token economy,
parallel fan-out — consolidates the CLAUDE.md model table, LOOP.md's
economy section, and skill §6.5 into one place; vendor model names
survive only in the per-harness mapping table), THEME-DESIGN.md
(ex .claude/skills/theme, which previously lacked frontmatter).
- .claude/ shrinks to a thin Claude Code adapter: settings, subagent
defs, and skill shims that route into agent/.
- Maps updated: agent/README.md (instructions vs state vs adapters),
docs/README.md, README.md layout tree.
Cleanup: stale old_distro .gitignore entry dropped (dir long gone);
local result*/__pycache__ artifacts removed; JOURNAL.md rotated (29
recent entries kept, 120 older moved to agent/JOURNAL-ARCHIVE.md,
rotation rule documented in the header).
Verification: V0 (docs/meta only) — nix flake check --no-build exit 0
with the tracked symlink; grep sweep confirms no vendor model names
outside DELEGATION.md's mapping table.
