Kills a recurring bug class: state defaults previously lived in three
parallel places that drifted apart over time.
- lib/state-schema.nix (the canonical schema, referenced
nowhere except a description string)
- core/system/options.nix (default = "..." clauses on options)
- core/home/options.nix (same, on home options)
- core/home/state.nix (`or "..."` fallbacks for state.json reads)
When `state.json` is missing a key, three files have to agree on the
fallback. They keep silently drifting:
- The OOTB QA audit shipped fixes for this pattern.
- Earlier this session, `chore: switch default theme summer-night → nord`
fixed core/system/options.nix and core/home/state.nix — but missed
core/home/options.nix, which still defaulted nomarchy.theme to
"summer-night". Every consumer of the home option
(features/default.nix, vscode.nix, waybar, hyprland, theme engine)
resolved to the wrong theme when state.json was blank.
This change:
- Imports lib/state-schema.nix into all three consumers and replaces
every hardcoded default with `schema.<scope>.<key>`.
- Fixes the lingering nomarchy.theme = "summer-night" home-side bug as
a side-effect.
- Touches roughly 25 literals across the three files.
Verified `nix flake check --no-build` passes and every centralized value
evaluates to the exact literal it previously had. Off-schema option-only
defaults (isLightMode, formFactor, cursor.*, iconsTheme, keyring.enable,
etc.) are left hardcoded — they have no state.json counterpart, so
there's no source-of-truth split to resolve.
Out of scope (follow-up):
- Have installer/install.sh generate /mnt/etc/nixos/state.json from
the schema instead of hardcoded JSON — would close the last
split-brain surface (the installer can still drift from schema).

Both the system option (`core/system/options.nix:theme`) and the home-side
state evaluator (`core/home/state.nix`) defaulted to "summer-night". The
installer-written state.json now seeds "nord" (see preceding installer
commit), and `lib/state-schema.nix` already defaults to "nord". Align the
hardcoded fallbacks here so a missing or blank state file lands on the
same theme everywhere instead of a now-inconsistent split.

Opt-in `nomarchy.system.gaming.enable` (default false). Wires
`programs.steam` (with `remotePlay` and `localNetworkGameTransfers`
firewall holes opened via `mkDefault`), `programs.gamemode` (the
launching user must be in the `gamemode` group), and
`services.flatpak`.
Two pieces of the original roadmap entry split into separate
Next-column rows so the system-side preset ships now:
1. Hyprland fullscreen-on-Steam-launch window rule (home-side).
2. Declarative flathub remote (nixpkgs has no API for this; needs
either an overlay or a one-shot systemd unit).
The flatpak service is enabled but the user must add flathub
manually after first boot — documented in OPTIONS.md.
Opt-in `nomarchy.system.accessibility.enable` (default false —
accessibility is a personal preference, not hardware-derived). Wires
`services.gnome.at-spi2-core`, installs `pkgs.orca`, and sets
`XCURSOR_SIZE` to a configurable `accessibility.cursorSize` (default
32, up from NixOS's 24).
The original roadmap entry bundled Hyprland-side bits (slower
key-repeat, Orca launch keybinding, high-contrast palette). Those
require touching home-manager / theme files and a new palette
directory; split into a separate Next-column row so the system-side
preset ships now and the desktop integration follows independently.
Mirror of the laptop preset for the desktop form factor. New
`nomarchy.system.desktop.enable` defaults to `formFactor == "desktop"`,
so the installer's existing formFactor write auto-flips it on without
installer changes (same pattern as laptop).
The module pins `powerManagement.cpuFreqGovernor` to `"performance"`
(via mkDefault) and enables `services.zfs.{autoScrub,trim}` so a
future ZFS pool gets sensible maintenance for free. The ZFS knobs are
no-ops until the user adds zfs to `boot.supportedFilesystems`.
Battery widget filtering is already driven by `formFactor` itself in
`features/desktop/waybar/default.nix`, so the preset doesn't repeat
it. Closes the "Desktop preset module" Next item.
New `nomarchy.system.laptop.{enable,thermald}` options. `enable`
defaults to `formFactor == "laptop"`, so the installer's existing
formFactor write auto-flips the preset on without installer changes.
The module wires TLP (governors + 75/80 charge thresholds),
force-disables power-profiles-daemon (mutually exclusive with TLP),
enables upower and thermald (x86_64), adds the brightnessctl udev
rule so the existing brightness scripts work without root, and sets
a logind lid-switch policy that resolves to suspend-then-hibernate
when `hibernation.enable` is on, plain suspend otherwise.
Closes the "Form-factor → laptop preset auto-enable" Now item and
the "Laptop preset module" Next item from docs/ROADMAP.md in one
change.
- Implement nomarchy-skill, nomarchy-manual, nomarchy-backup, nomarchy-install
- Implement nomarchy-install-docker-dbs (stub)
- Port nomarchy-docs-keybindings and nomarchy-docs-scripts to packaged scripts
- Add installerVm to flake.nix nixosConfigurations, packages, and apps
- Update nomarchy-test-installer to use nix run .#installerVm
- Add docker support to virtualization.nix and options.nix
- Add glow to script dependencies
- Finalize docs/SCRIPTS.md update
- Installer prompts for keyboard layout (with optional variant) and locale
via curated short list + Other… fallback into the full localectl list;
applies to the live session immediately (loadkeys + hyprctl) so the
rest of the install types correctly. Generated system.nix emits
console.keyMap, i18n.defaultLocale, and services.xserver.xkb.{layout,
variant}.
- New nomarchy.{system,}.formFactor enum (laptop|desktop, default laptop).
Installer auto-detects via /sys/class/power_supply/BAT* and lets the
user flip the answer. Waybar drops the battery widget on desktop;
battery-monitor service is gated on the same option.
- Lift waybar tray out of the collapsed group/tray-expander in the default
theme so nm-applet's icon is visible without expanding the drawer.
- Live ISOs (TTY + graphical) get baseline mkDefault keyMap/locale so the
installer's runtime override always wins.

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.
