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.

Slice (b) of the docs review: every factual claim in the three docs
spot-checked against the tree (mkDefault sites, bind priority, CLI
keys, awww naming, preset/wallpaper counts, summer-night's light bar,
live-ISO monitor rule, CI workflow, QEMU GL flags, template steps) —
all held. Two gaps fixed: OVERRIDES §2 predated nomarchy.monitors and
never routed readers to it (added, plus a quick-reference row);
TESTING §1 didn't list the shell-syntax check that §1b says CI runs
(added bash -n).

The runner was alive all along (gitea/act_runner, ubuntu-latest label);
no run ever appeared because Gitea only reads .gitea/workflows/ (or
.github/workflows/) and ignores the .forgejo/ path the workflow shipped
under. The legacy repo's .gitea/workflows/check.yml was the clue.
References corrected (workflow header, TESTING.md, agent files); this
push doubles as the first live trigger of the workflow.

.forgejo/workflows/check.yml runs on every push to main/v1 (+ manual
dispatch): nix flake check --no-build (full module-system eval incl.
the downstream template through mkFlake), py_compile of
nomarchy-theme-sync, and bash -n over tracked .sh files. The always-on
net under direct-to-main pushes — first slice of the ROADMAP lock-bump
CI item.
Scoped to the eval tier deliberately: the instance's runner is an
act_runner docker container (no systemd, no /dev/kvm — established
from the legacy repo's .gitea/workflows/check.yml, which ran 57 times
on it), so the checks.* VM suite and real builds can't run there. A
commented vm-checks job documents the KVM-runner upgrade path; the
legacy workflow's container gotchas (nixbld setup for the single-user
installer, sandbox=false for Stylix IFD, Nix pinned 2.31.5 vs
lazy-trees, no JS actions past node20) are carried over verbatim in
the header. docs/TESTING.md §1b documents what a green run does and
does not mean.
Verified: V0 locally (the same check commands, minus the container
Nix install) + YAML parse. A real green run depends on the runner
still being registered — not API-visible unauthenticated, so that is
queued as [human] BACKLOG item 20.

Promotes the throwaway harness that verified the installer into tools/:
- tools/vm/qmp.py QMP keystroke injection / typing / quit
- tools/vm/vncshot.py GL-safe screenshots via VNC readback (QMP
screendump shows "no surface" with virtio-vga-gl)
- tools/vm/gap-analysis.py drv-graph diff that converged the offline
pin set; run it when offline installs build
from source
- tools/test-install.sh the full offline regression: build ISO, boot
offline, unattended LUKS+swap install via a
config disk (typed long commands drop keys),
wait for poweroff, boot the installed disk,
screenshot the first boot for visual verdict
docs/TESTING.md §4 now points at the script.

- LUKS2 is the installer default; in exchange the generated config sets
the new nomarchy.system.greeter.autoLogin (greetd initial_session) —
the disk passphrase already gates the machine.
- @snapshots subvolume + nomarchy.system.snapper.enable: hourly/daily
timeline snapshots of / and the nixos-rebuild-snap helper, ported from
the previous iteration (3bdfc35), guarded to no-op on non-BTRFS roots.
- @swap subvolume with a swapfile sized to RAM by default (disko
mkswapfile handles NOCOW); the installer computes the resume offset
and wires boot.resumeDevice + resume_offset for hibernation.

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.

Full replacement of the previous iteration, rebuilt around three ideas:
- Pure evaluation: theme-state.json lives inside the flake and is read
via the nomarchy.stateFile option — no --impure, ever.
- All-Home-Manager theming: `nomarchy-theme-sync apply` writes the JSON
and runs `home-manager switch`; every theme change is one atomic,
rollbackable generation. Wallpaper (swww) is the sole runtime piece.
- Flat, downstream-first layout: modules/{nixos,home} with one
options.nix each, exported as nixosModules/homeModules + overlay +
flake template; system (nixos-rebuild) and desktop (home-manager
switch) rebuild paths are fully split.
Ships 21 themes imported from the previous iteration (palettes,
wallpapers, btop themes, six whole-swap Waybar identities), Stylix for
the GTK/Qt/cursor long tail, a live ISO target with offline theme
switching, and docs/TESTING.md with the QEMU verification workflow.
