System is Connectivity / Devices / Recovery / Preferences under the same
six-entry root. Recovery lists desktop (HM), system boot, and BTRFS files
once each with cost labels. Control Center is gone: blur/gaps live in Look
& Feel; update checks and Bluetooth/Printing package toggles in Preferences
(with rebuilds). docs/RECOVERY paths updated.
Acer M5-481T fails Ghostty because Ivy Bridge HD 4000 tops out at
OpenGL 4.2 in Mesa; Ghostty needs 4.3 — a generation ceiling, not a
missing driver. Document that plus UEFI/x86_64, RAM, and storage floors
(Nix store generations + BTRFS snapper + hibernate swap≈RAM). Linked
from README, docs map, HARDWARE.md; #95 points here.
Bernardo, post-reboot: "Use for login" was the wrong question. Whether the
finger works is one decision, not two, and whether login prompts at all is
a different decision that was never in the menu.
System › Fingerprint is now a single Fingerprint (on/off) switch, leading
the menu with enroll/list/verify/delete as the plumbing behind it. It
writes the one settings.fingerprint.pam key, and modules/home/idle.nix now
defaults idle.fingerprint from that same key — so the lock screen and
login/sudo move together instead of drifting apart the way they did until
e2de906. nomarchy-fingerprint does the two rebuilds this needs (sudo
system for PAM, home switch for hyprlock) and refuses to turn on with no
finger enrolled.
System › Auto-login is new (nomarchy-autologin), and it is what decides
whether anything is asked at boot: auto-login on means no prompt whatever
the fingerprint switch says; off means the greeter asks, for a password or
a finger. Installer-seeded ON for LUKS machines — the passphrase already
gates the disk — and off without it, where the greeter is the only thing
between power-on and the desktop.
Both had to become state-owned to be toggleable at all, which surfaced two
real bugs:
* nomarchy.system.greeter.autoLogin defaulted from
`config.nomarchy.settings…` — an attribute that exists ONLY on the Home
Manager side. On NixOS it is absent and `or null` swallowed the error,
so the default silently evaluated to null on every machine ever built.
That is why the installer baked a Nix line: the state path never
worked. Now read via theme-state-read.nix (the hardware.nix/timezone.nix
pattern) and mkDefault'd, so the menu owns it and a hand-set line still
pins it. Two more options read the same phantom bridge — BACKLOG #116.
* `theme-sync get` printed Python's "None" for a JSON null, so every
`case … null)` a caller writes would miss. Now prints "null", as the
comment above it already promised for booleans.
The installer seeds the state instead of emitting the system.nix line,
because that line outranks the state and would strand the toggle.
V1 (V3 pending: HARDWARE-QUEUE). nix flake check --no-build, installer-
safety and option-docs all pass. Proved by eval/build, not assumed: a state
carrying autoLogin yields greetd initial_session {"user":"bernardo"}, the
template state (no autoLogin) yields none, and a hand-set null beats a state
that says otherwise; a state with only fingerprint.pam=true — nothing set by
hand — renders the hyprlock auth.fingerprint block; both new tools pass
bash -n and land in systemPackages (nomarchy-fingerprint only with a
reader); the patcher writes settings.greeter.autoLogin and no system.nix
line; and the get round trip prints null, so the menu reads "Auto-login
(off)" where it would have read "(on)".
The reader itself, the two rebuilds, and the reboot are hardware — queued.

The feature commit updated the README table, template, ROADMAP and
HARDWARE-QUEUE but missed the canonical user-facing page: HARDWARE.md
§5 gets a "Parallel prompt" subsection (default, opt-out, structural
lockout safety, grep to verify, known leftover-prompt quirk) and the
option-summary table row; MIGRATION.md's fingerprint bullet points at
it. Doc-only, V0.

HARDWARE.md §9 lists T14s Gen 4 + Latitude 5410/5310 with DMI/profile
notes and a "send your DMI line" PR invite. Split dock life #84 into
#86 clamshell + #87 dock audio (stable new IDs).
Verified: V0 (docs/backlog only).
If the installer left /var/log/nomarchy-hm-preactivate.log and no Home
Manager generation exists, doctor reports ✖ with the recovery one-liner
(home-manager switch --flake ~/.nomarchy -b bak). Clears once a
generation is present. checks.doctor covers both arms.
Verified: V2 — checks.doctor green; local smoke.
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_*).
Self-gated System › Fingerprint when fprintd is on PATH: enroll, list,
verify, delete-all (terminal), and Use for login writing
settings.fingerprint.pam (hardware.nix default from theme-state). Close#55.
Verified: V1 (HM menu rebuild). V3 pending: real-reader enroll (HARDWARE-QUEUE).
Package the installer’s pure hardware-db probe as nomarchy-detect-hw:
prints suggested hardwareProfile and system.nix snippets (or --raw
protocol lines). Does not rewrite the flake. On PATH via the distro
module; docs/HARDWARE.md §8 updated. Close#58.
Verified: V1 (build + run on AMD laptop with fingerprint/NPU/IR cam).
When hardwareProfile includes common-gpu-nvidia, emit a comment-only
plain NixOS block (PRIME / powerManagement / open-module) in the
installer region of system.nix — same pattern as ROCm/NPU opt-ins.
HARDWARE.md §6 product direction marked shipped. Close#59.
Verified: V0 (patch-template smoke + negative + bash -n).
Add a self-gated Firmware row to the System submenu (present whenever
fwupdmgr is on PATH, i.e. services.fwupd.enable — default-on), its
dispatch, and a `firmware` handler that opens a terminal and runs
fwupdmgr refresh → get-updates → y/N confirm → fwupdmgr update. Never
auto-flashes: fwupdmgr update confirms each device and prompts for the
reboot a capsule needs (pillar 1 — no silent BIOS writes). HARDWARE.md
§4 updated to "shipped".
Verified V0 (nix flake check --no-build) + V1 (HM generation builds;
generated nomarchy-menu passes bash -n; firmware handler emitted
correctly). V2 (menu render in a session) queued in #43 and V3 (real
LVFS flash) in HARDWARE-QUEUE — the VM was held by the #46 install test.

Add docs/VISION.md (product themes, v1.0 bar, agent slice hints) and
README maps under docs/ and agent/. Point ROADMAP, BACKLOG, LOOP,
CLAUDE, HARDWARE, and the root README at the split: VISION = intent,
BACKLOG = executable queue, ROADMAP = design history, .claude = harness
only. Mark v1.0 track in BACKLOG PROPOSED for human triage.
Add docs/HARDWARE.md (layers, install path, firmware/fingerprint/NVIDIA
deep dives, unsupported machines, contributing a DMI line). Link from
README and MIGRATION; queue firmware UI, doctor checks, detect-hw CLI,
and related PROPOSED items in BACKLOG.
