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
repro + grim screenshots + CSS property bisect, V3 on TuringMachine).
V3 pending: human click on the real nm-applet tray icon post-switch.

With a charge cap, AC-plugged inside the hysteresis band (power.nix:
start = cap − 10) reports 'Not charging' — indistinguishable from a
broken charger without a hint. tooltip-format-plugged now says the cap
is holding the level and how charging resumes. No cap value baked: the
menu changes it live without a rebuild.
Whole-swap parity: the same tooltip added to all four theme
waybar.jsonc files (boreal/executive-slate/summer-day/summer-night) —
the generated config is bypassed under these themes.
Verified on hardware (TuringMachine, boreal theme, cap 80, battery 71%
in the hold band): all four jsonc validate with jq; home-manager switch
deploys the boreal config with the tooltip; battery currently in the
exact Plugged state the tooltip targets.

Two bare `{:%…}` specs emptied the hover tooltip (box with no text).
One strftime block with an embedded newline shows date + zone; ensure
tooltip label colors on generated + summer bars.
#54: permanent checks.installer-safety; test-install-safety harness with
offline compose-fail, LUKS-signature disk warn, and HM-hint FORCE paths.
#33: enable themed rofi scrollbars (generated + all whole-swap .rasi).
#43: MOTD + first-boot tip for System › Firmware (V3 LVFS stays hw-queue).
V2: compose-fail/disk-warn/hm-hint logs green offline; theme-shot
boreal+summer-night menus OK. V0 flake/installer-safety.
Doctor tripwire was self-hiding under waybar (PATH miss / weak glyph).
Call nomarchy-doctor by store path, strip ANSI tooltips, use + format
+ signal 10 (generated and whole-swap). theme-shot asserts class:bad,
guest btop.theme, and pokes RTMIN+10 before desktop shots.
V2: theme-shot green for rose-pine, summer-night, catppuccin, everforest,
vantablack; bar crops show the red alert-circle. btop TUI visual is
softGL-blocked (Ghostty) → HARDWARE-QUEUE. Closes#51 and #52.
Close the honesty gap on #45. Rendered the full Boreal desktop
headlessly (tools/theme-shot.nix, softGL 1920x1080) and confirmed the
session reads as Boreal — aurora wallpaper, Waybar violet accent
(#B79BE8) workspace pill, GeistMono clock, rofi launcher violet
prompt/selection — not Tokyo Night. Added themes/boreal/preview.png
(480x270, matches the existing 21) so the picker row is no longer
plain-name.
theme-shot: park the cursor bottom-right before the desktop shot so the
frame (which doubles as the preview source) is clean; reusable for the
other two missing previews.
Verified: V0 flake check; V2 theme-shot desktop/menu shots viewed;
contrast 24x7 pass. Preview is a headless bare-desktop capture (not the
floating-terminal composition of the others) — hardware recapture noted.

Item 28 color-only accessibility sweep. Swept every Waybar status
indicator for shape/glyph redundancy: all already carry non-color
distinction (updates shows a count + self-hides; vpn/doctor/nightlight/
recording self-gate; battery/idle/muted are glyph-distinct) except the
swaync notification module — its `inhibited-*` states reused the normal
bells (/), so an app-inhibited (suppressed) state was distinguished
from a normal one by color alone.
Route every suppressed state (DND + inhibited) to the bell-off glyph
+ @muted, so "notifications are off right now" reads by SHAPE. Applied
to the generated bar and all four whole-swaps (summer-day/night use
their own bell-off glyph; executive-slate/boreal use ) — parity rule.
Reuses the glyph DND already ships, so no new codepoint / tofu risk.
Verified: V0 (flake check --no-build; 4 jsoncs valid JSON) + V1 (built
homeConfigurations.nomarchy.activationPackage — the built config has
inhibited-* = U+F009B and style.css routes .inhibited-* → @muted).
V3 pending: live inhibited-state render with an app holding an inhibitor
(HARDWARE-QUEUE). MEMORY gains the "status is never color-only" invariant.

Item 42, de-scoped by Bernardo to app-only — no account sync (the user
configures that themselves locally). Clicking the Waybar date/clock now
runs nomarchy-calendar → calcurse in a floating, centered ghostty window
tagged --class=com.nomarchy.calendar (+ --gtk-single-instance=false for a
fresh standalone window), matched by a float+size+center windowrule. The
launcher self-gates on calcurse. Dropped the clock's format-alt date
toggle (conflicts with on-click) and moved the long date into the tooltip.
Parity: on-click added to all four whole-swap jsoncs.
Ships calcurse + pwvucontrol uncommented in the downstream template
(opt-out). Enforces ghostty always installed (ghostty.nix: enable = true
unconditional; nomarchy.ghostty.enable now gates only the theming/config)
so the --class launcher can rely on it.
Verified: V0 green; four jsoncs valid JSON; V1 HM built — launcher ships,
generated clock renders on-click=nomarchy-calendar (format-alt gone, date
in tooltip), hyprland has the 3 calendar windowrules, ghostty in the HM
profile. Click→float→calcurse month view is V3 (queued). Sync is
deliberately the user's own config, not a distro feature.

Item 36(b). Adds `nomarchy-menu powermgmt` — one flat rofi menu of power
Profile rows (→ powerprofilesctl set) + Charge limit rows (→ the same
theme-sync writer batterylimit uses), each half self-gating on its
hardware. No backend duplication; Custom charge stays in the dedicated
batterylimit picker.
Opened two ways (Bernardo's call): the Waybar battery icon AND the
power-profile icon — the profile icon's click flips from cycle → menu.
Wired in waybar.nix and all four whole-swaps (parity). Named `powermgmt`
to avoid the whole-swaps' existing `custom/powermenu` shutdown button
(→ nomarchy-menu power), which is left untouched. The granular System ▸
Power profile / Battery limit rows stay ("keep both").
nomarchy-powerprofile-cycle kept as a standalone bin, now unbound by
default.
Verified: V0 green; V1 HM built (bash -n) — powermgmt case ships, the
generated waybar-config.json wires both icons (2 hits), all four jsoncs
re-wired and still parse, shutdown buttons intact. Click→menu→apply is
V3 (queued).

Right-clicking the Waybar volume module now opens pwvucontrol (per-app
mixer); left-click still mutes. Adds:
- on-click-right in waybar.nix + all four whole-swap jsoncs (parity)
- hyprland.nix: the config's first windowrule block — float + center the
mixer (pwvucontrol, with pavucontrol as a fallback class); normal-
priority list so a downstream windowrule concatenates
- pwvucontrol in the template home.packages
pwvucontrol is PipeWire-native + GTK4/libadwaita, so it themes via the
portal color-scheme like Amberol. app-id verified from the built package.
This settles the windowrule pattern/placement; item 41 is now just
broadening the float set. Right-click→float→center is a V3 session check.

On Hyprland the `top` layer renders above every window, including a real
fullscreen surface — so a browser video gone fullscreen sat *under* the
bar (BACKLOG item 30). Move the bar to `layer: bottom` in the generated
waybar.nix and all four whole-swap jsoncs (parity rule); the exclusive
zone still reserves its space in normal tiling, but a fullscreen window
now covers it. Rationale comment kept in waybar.nix; data jsoncs left
comment-free (they carry none).
Verified: V0 (nix flake check --no-build, green) + V1
(homeConfigurations.nomarchy.activationPackage builds; built
.config/waybar/config shows "layer": "bottom"). V3 queued in
HARDWARE-QUEUE (fullscreen covers bar + returns on exit; floating-overlap
trade-off).

The discharging `format` put a single space between the icon span and
{capacity}%, but the battery-bar glyphs carry almost no right bearing,
so the state read cramped — while charging/plugged use glyphs with their
own spacing and looked fine. Widen only the discharging line to two
spaces across all four themes that ship their own bar (boreal,
summer-night, summer-day, executive-slate).

- Pin `font-family: Nomarchy` on #custom-nomarchy (boreal, executive-slate)
so the branded mark at U+F000 wins over the Nerd Font's glass glyph at
the same codepoint (summer bars already pinned it).
- Enlarge the icons on icon+text modules via a Pango span, with a gap so
the glyph no longer crowds the value. The volume module gets a wider
gap: its level glyph is unusually wide and overlapped the % otherwise.
- Bump icon-only status modules (caffeine, speedometer, …) to match, so
they don't read smaller than their neighbours. The generated bar sizes
everything relative to fonts.size (+2/+3pt) so it scales per theme.

The Apps launcher (`rofi -show drun -theme launcher`) imported
`custom.rasi` — the name HM gives *generated* themes — but a whole-swap
theme's base is deployed under its source basename (`rofi.rasi`), so the
import resolved against $HOME and rofi errored with "custom.rasi not
found" on every whole-swap theme. Make the default import track the
active base (rofi.rasi for whole-swaps, custom.rasi otherwise) and point
Boreal's own launcher.rasi at rofi.rasi.
Also give Boreal's app grid `flow: horizontal` so Down at a column's foot
pages to the next screen instead of jumping to the next column's top,
mirroring the theme-picker grid.

The whole-swap waybar.jsonc for both themes shipped with every Nerd Font
private-use glyph dropped to an empty string — the launcher (U+F000), the
power button (U+F011), and all pulseaudio / battery / notification
format-icons — so the bars rendered with those icons blank. The glyphs were
lost when the files were first written; restored here from the known-good
generated bar (waybar.nix) and summer-night, verified by codepoint:
launcher U+F000, power U+F011, notification bells U+F009A-C, full
battery/volume icon sets. (Files re-dumped with ensure_ascii=False, so the
module arrays are now multi-line — content only, no layout change.)
V1: strict JSON + builtins.fromJSON parse both (13 right-modules each);
comprehensive scan reports zero empty glyph fields; flake check green.
Found while sweeping the branch: summer-night/day carry the same empty
notification format-icons (pre-existing, untouched here) — flagged for a
separate fix.

Boreal — a Nord × Everforest × Dracula dark theme: a boreal forest at
night under the aurora. Nord's frost bones, Everforest's comfort, Dracula's
jewel-tone violet/cyan as the aurora light.
Palette (WCAG-checked, all 24 themes × 7 pairings pass): frost-slate base,
soft-vivid violet accent (#B79BE8, 6.35 on base) + frost-cyan accentAlt
(#86C7C0, 7.84 AAA), sage-green/gold/coral semantics, text 10.66 AAA.
Bespoke, non-standard surfaces:
- Waybar whole-swap (jsonc + css): a floating "aurora frost" bar of three
frosted-glass pills; launcher+clock left, workspaces centre, and the whole
right side is ONE continuous pill — the system tray shares its glass with
the status modules, no separators (the seamless-tray requirement). Full
module set (parity). GeistMono.
- Rofi: a frosted list base (used by every menu), plus a 4×3 large-icon grid
for the app launcher only.
- Typography GeistMono Nerd Font (57 MB, new); Iosevka was rejected at 1.1 GB.
Per-theme appearance (new): a preset now carries a full fonts+ui block, like
border, so a theme can ship a bespoke font / terminal opacity / border
thickness / rounding and a switch always replaces it — no leak into the next
theme (verified: boreal→everforest resets mono/rounding/opacity). All 23 other
presets get the current defaults (idempotent — zero visual change). Boreal
runs GeistMono + 0.90 terminal opacity + 3px borders + 12px rounding.
Grid launcher (new, backward-compatible): drun renders via `-theme launcher`;
HM writes ~/.local/share/rofi/themes/launcher.rasi which defaults to
`@import "custom.rasi"` (every other theme's launcher = its list, unchanged),
and a theme may override it (Boreal's grid). Text menus keep the base list.
Wallpaper: an original procedurally-generated aurora-over-treeline (ImageMagick),
palette-matched.
V1: nix flake check --no-build green; strict JSON on every preset; contrast
checker green; the real rofi binary parses the base rasi and resolves
`-theme launcher` + @import + grid overlay; end-to-end eval with boreal active
resolves the waybar whole-swap (tray in the right cluster), the rofi grid
launcher, and the bespoke fonts/opacity/geometry reaching nomarchy.theme, with
no cross-theme contamination. NOT done: on-screen render of the desktop
(V2/V3) and preview.png (deferred to on-hardware capture).
