Tier A removals — small, half-wired modules nobody had asked for:
- makima (Copilot-key remapper): drop core/system/makima.nix, the
features/apps/makima/ keyboard.toml, the nomarchy-restart-makima script,
the `nomarchy.system.features.makima` option, the state-file binding,
the import in core/system/default.nix, and the "Key Remapping" entry
in nomarchy-menu. ~50 LoC + a service nobody asked for.
- Typora theme dir (core/home/config/Typora/) — Typora is a paid tool
Nomarchy doesn't even ship; the SUPER+SHIFT+W keybinding pointed at a
binary that wasn't on PATH.
- xournalpp settings (core/home/config/xournalpp/) — referenced
/usr/share paths that don't exist on NixOS.
- core/home/config/environment.d/fcitx.conf — manual env vars are
redundant once fcitx5 routes through NixOS's i18n.inputMethod.
Optionalization — three half-wired features now sit behind explicit
toggles, all default off (except keyring which keeps its existing
default-on):
- nomarchy.system.inputMethod.enable: new core/system/input-method.nix
uses NixOS's i18n.inputMethod with fcitx5 + mozc/chinese/table addons.
Drops the Hyprland exec-once line — i18n.inputMethod handles autostart.
- nomarchy.system.voxtype.enable: marker option for users who install
voxtype out-of-band (it's not in nixpkgs). Today it just documents
intent; the existing keybinding + waybar widget no-op gracefully.
- nomarchy.apps.opencode.enable: gates the existing
features/apps/opencode/default.nix xdg.configFile so the opencode
config only deploys when the user opts in.
Installer:
- system.nix and home.nix templates now surface the new toggles in their
"Optional Nomarchy modules" comment blocks.

Five opt-in modules lifted from bernardo/nixos and adapted to Nomarchy's
nomarchy.system.* option namespace. All default off (except keyring which
defaults on); evaluation of the existing VM/ISO is unchanged when the
toggles are unset.
- core/system/snapper.nix: BTRFS timeline snapshots (5h/7d), nixos-rebuild-snap
wrapper that pre-snaps before each switch using the running hostname.
Auto-skips when / isn't BTRFS so impermanence/non-BTRFS hosts are safe.
- core/system/hibernate.nix: suspend-then-hibernate on lid/idle/power-key
with configurable idleMinutes (default 30). Description warns swap is
required.
- core/system/containers.nix: rootless Podman with dockerCompat + dns +
podman-compose, podman-tui, dive. Better default than the docker daemon
for a desktop distro.
- core/system/virtualization.nix: extends the existing uwsm/Hyprland file
with a libvirt + virt-manager + OVMF branch behind
nomarchy.system.virtualization.libvirt.enable.
- core/system/pam.nix: GNOME Keyring auto-unlock at SDDM/login/hyprlock
plus gcr-ssh-agent so SSH keys flow through the keyring instead of a
separate ssh-agent. Default on.
- core/system/options.nix: declares the five new options.
- core/system/default.nix: imports the four new files.
- installer/install.sh: surfaces all five toggles as commented one-liners
in the "Optional Nomarchy modules" section of the generated system.nix.
Verified via the existing dry-run / generator smoke test.
Verified each toggle lights up the right NixOS option (services.snapper,
logind IdleAction, virtualisation.podman/libvirtd, pam.sddm.enableGnomeKeyring)
via nix eval against extendModules. VM and live-ISO toplevels still build.

Hardware:
- New installer/hardware-db.sh: flat regex table mapping sys_vendor +
product_name to nixos-hardware modules (Framework, Dell, Lenovo, Surface,
ASUS, Apple T2, System76).
- install.sh:select_hardware now auto-detects CPU vendor, GPU vendor, chassis
type, and known model, then offers Accept / Add / Override. Manual menu
retained as a fallback.
- Fixes a latent bug where HARDWARE_MODULES used literal "\n" inside a
heredoc, producing invalid Nix.
Downstream flake:
- Capture the running Nomarchy commit and pin `nomarchy.url` to it so the
installed system can't drift onto a newer breaking main.
- Prompt for a real hostname; nixosConfigurations.<hostname> replaces the
generic .default. networking.hostName lands in system.nix.
- Generated flake now derives a single `pkgs` from nixpkgs + Nomarchy's
`overlays.default` and shares it between nixosSystem and the standalone
homeManagerConfiguration so dotfile-fast-iteration with nomarchy-env-update
stays separate from `nixos-rebuild` while still seeing Nomarchy packages.
- `nix flake lock` runs in /mnt/etc/nixos before nixos-install so first boot
consumes the resolved set.
- Post-install, run home-manager switch inside `nixos-enter` via runuser so
the user's first login already has dotfiles. Failure is non-fatal.
Disk layout:
- /boot bumped to 1 GiB (was 512 MiB; tight with multi-generation kernels).
- New @snapshots subvolume at /.snapshots for snapper/btrbk/rollback.
- LUKS passphrase moved from /tmp/secret.key to /dev/shm/nomarchy-luks.key
(tmpfs), shredded after disko, LUKS_PASSWORD unset.
Branding:
- New core/system/branding.nix sets system.nixos.distroId = "nomarchy" and
distroName = "Nomarchy". /etc/os-release now reports Nomarchy, so fastfetch
and other os-release readers show the right name.
Cleanup:
- flake.nix exposes `overlays.default = nomarchyOverlay` for downstream use.
- Trailing duplicated `main "$@"` + orphan `}` removed from install.sh.

- Migrate VM and graphical ISO to home-manager.nixosModules.home-manager;
drop the standalone-HM sudo-based activation script (ran HM against
/root because HOME wasn't reset) in flake.nix, core/system/vm-guest.nix,
hosts/live-iso.nix.
- Run swaybg as nomarchy-wallpaper.service instead of a silent Hyprland
exec-once so failures surface in systemctl.
- Skip the battery monitor unit on hosts without /sys/class/power_supply/BAT*
(VMs, desktops).
- Don't wrap walker --dmenu in uwsm-app; redirect setsid background std-fds
in nomarchy-launch-walker so $(menu ...) in nomarchy-menu doesn't hang.
- Restart waybar/walker via systemctl --user rather than pkill + uwsm-app
to stop the post-theme-switch color race.
- Wire nomarchy-restart-walker/-waybar into nomarchy-theme-set so themes
that only change the imported CSS reload correctly.
- Waybar: pin #custom-nomarchy to the Nomarchy font and use the U+F000
codepoint so the logo shows across all themes.
- Auto-install the correct icon-theme package per palette via a new
nomarchyLib.iconThemePackage helper in lib/default.nix; Everforest now
actually renders for summer-night.
- Pre-cache every theme's HM generation: new packages.allThemeVariants
flake output and nomarchy-themes-prebuild script so theme switches are
cache-only (no Stylix rebuild, no downloads).
- Add nomarchy-test-live-iso to boot the graphical ISO in QEMU the same
way nomarchy-test-vm does, with virtio-gpu support added to live-iso.nix.
- Installer-generated home.nix/system.nix now ship a curated, commented
app menu (btop/fastfetch/chromium on by default) plus optional system
services (Docker, libvirtd, Tailscale, Syncthing, Flatpak, Steam).
- nomarchy-test-vm now wipes the stale nomarchy.qcow2 before launch.
- Remove obsolete GEMINI.md and PLAN.md.
