Add checks.hibernate: a runNixOSTest modeled on nixpkgs' hibernate.nix,
wired to the actual risk #76 introduces — coexistence with the zram swap
that oom.nix now enables by default. It imports oom.nix, puts the disk
swap at a lower priority than zram with an explicit boot.resumeDevice,
and uses systemd-initrd. The test drives a full
hibernate -> power-off -> resume -> crash cycle: a volatile ramfs marker
survives resume but NOT a crash-boot (proving genuine resume), and it
asserts zram sits at priority 100 while the disk swap is lower, so the
hibernate image lands on disk rather than volatile zram.
What QEMU genuinely can't do — feed a boot-time resume_offset for a btrfs
swapfile (offset only exists after first-boot allocation) or drive a
LUKS-initrd unlock — stays a V3 laptop check (HARDWARE-QUEUE, dev box
already runs that exact layout), plus the no-swap notify in a real
session. With this, all V0/V1/V2 work on #76 is done; #76 collapses to a
[blocked:hw] stub and the design record moves to ROADMAP.
Verification: V2 PASS — nix build .#checks.x86_64-linux.hibernate built
the driver fresh and exited 0. nix flake check --no-build green.

#69: audit-theme-design tags hue/CVD/ANSI-family noise on white,
vantablack, lumon, hackerman, matte-black, miasma as [identity] with a
legend — do not retune identity palettes into traffic lights.
#70: import-palettes keeps surface≠overlay when color0==color8, derives
light UI chips from base (ANSI-black trap), gentler light mantle; roles
are first-class. No bulk re-import of shipped theme JSON.
Verified: V0 (py_compile + synthetic import fixtures + audit report).
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.
Slice (c), the last of the docs review: the install/first-run story
read end to end against the tree. Facts held (mkFlake args match the
table, disko's @snapshots + hibernation swapfile, .#default/.#me
naming); the one seam — README §3 never pointed the manual path at the
template README's first-run steps — got a connective paragraph. Item 6
deleted from BACKLOG; ROADMAP § Full docs review flipped to ✓.

Slice (a) of the docs review: 9 undocumented nomarchy.* options got
README rows or inline .leaf mentions (autoTimezone, camera IR-hide,
intel.guc, amd.pstate/vaapi, package, system.stateFile, restic.paths).
The diff is now a flake check: option names are eval-walked from the
four option-declaring modules (config halves stay lazy) and compared
to the tables by tools/check-option-docs.py — undocumented options and
stale table rows both fail. Negative-tested against the pre-fix README
(reports exactly the 9 gaps). Item 6 split into slices a–d in BACKLOG.

Follow-on to the swaync fix (a643391): the generated Waybar CSS colored
the module row and #window @subtext and dim states @muted, and the
generated rofi theme put @fg text on @surface chips — invisible where
palettes use those roles as "on-surface" (flexoki-light: subtext==base,
surface==text; gruvbox: muted/base = 1.27). flexoki-light has no
whole-swap, so it ran this CSS. Generated surfaces only — the summer
whole-swaps are hand-authored and untouched.
- waybar: secondary text → alpha(@text, 0.85); dim states (inactive
workspaces, DND bell, muted volume) → alpha(@text, 0.5).
- rofi: @dim → text+"80", @surface → text+"1a" (#RRGGBBAA fg tints).
- check-theme-contrast.py pairings/docs now cover all three generated
surfaces; status glyphs (good/warn/bad on base, worst 2.05) are
deliberately not held to a text ratio — raising them is palette
design, a human decision.
Verified: V0; V1 (checks.theme-contrast green over 21 themes;
downstream-template-home builds; rendered waybar style has zero
@subtext/@muted/@surface; rendered custom.rasi shows fg-derived
tints). Honesty: NOT visually verified — V3 queued (flexoki-light
eyeball + dark-theme regression spot-check).

Palette roles aren't uniform: summer-day and flexoki-light use subtext
as text-ON-surface (== base) and surface as a dark chip (== text), so
swaync's @subtext-on-@base body text and @surface/@text buttons were
self-colored (caught on the Latitude).
- body/summary: @text on @base — the one text pairing that passes in
every palette (survey: worst WCAG ratio 5.18 across all 21 themes;
subtext/base bottomed at 1.00 twice, muted/base at 1.27).
- hover rows + widget-title buttons: alpha(@text, 0.1) tints —
contrast by construction; subtext/surface defines dropped.
- NEW checks.theme-contrast (tools/check-theme-contrast.py): asserts
the hex-on-hex text pairings across themes/*.json, cheap (no VM).
The audit also found the generated waybar/rofi CSS shares the bug
class, live on flexoki-light (no whole-swap) → BACKLOG item 27.
Verified: V0; V1 (checks.theme-contrast builds green, 21 themes;
rendered services.swaync.style has zero @subtext/@surface). Honesty:
NOT visually verified — V3 queued (notify-send on summer-day).

Recovers the crashed iteration #7 (items 21+23, Latitude QA findings):
- nomarchy-waybar supervisor (waybar.nix, exec-once'd from
hyprland.nix): any waybar exit respawns the bar; crash-loop guard
(5 fast exits -> critical notify + stop); TERM trapped for a real
stop. Fixes the bar-less session after a theme-switch crash.
- nomarchy-theme-sync prefers a clean `pkill -x waybar` (supervisor
restart with fresh config+style) over the crash-prone in-place
SIGUSR2 reload when the supervisor is running; SIGUSR2 stays as the
unsupervised fallback.
- sys-rebuild: snapshot-first system rebuild against the CURRENT lock
(no `nix flake update`) — the no-update twin of sys-update;
README §3/§5 + motd list it.
Verified: V0 re-run green after crash recovery (flake check --no-build
+ py_compile); V1/V2 per the crashed session's journal entry (HM
renders exec-once=nomarchy-waybar; headless software-GL VM:
SIGKILL -> new pid, clean kill -> respawn, SIGUSR2 -> alive).
V3 pending on the Latitude (queued in HARDWARE-QUEUE.md).

SUPER+SHIFT+K → hyprctl switchxkblayout current next, rendered only
when the session layout has a comma — the same gate as the Waybar
language indicator. Bind data is a separate multiLayoutBinds list in
keybinds.nix (still one source); hyprland.nix and the rofi cheatsheet
gate on the identical condition, so bind and cheatsheet cannot drift.
`current` targets the focused keyboard, so per-device-overridden
boards (single layout) are a no-op.
Parity: hyprland/language (with the keyboard glyph) added to both
summer waybar.jsonc whole-swaps + #language in their CSS. Static JSON
cannot eval-gate, so on summer themes the module shows even with one
layout — parity-over-minimalism, deliberate. Found en route:
summer-night has an idle_inhibitor the generated bar lacks (reverse
gap) — folded into backlog item 13.
Also — agent/BACKLOG.md gains items 21-24 from Bernardo's Latitude
5410 hardware QA (waybar crash on theme switch + no respawn; nameless
network-menu rows; a no-update sys-rebuild; Back-everywhere audit),
queued ahead of everything; HARDWARE-QUEUE's snapshot re-test now
carries the "update to >= a47aa3a + relogin" precondition, since
findings 5/6 match the pre-polkit-agent behavior exactly.
Verified: V0 (flake check, both summer JSONs parse) + V1 both
directions (default single-layout build renders no bind; us,de via
extendModules renders bind AND cheatsheet row). V3 cycle check queued.

Re-diagnosis of the "btrfs-assistant 2.2 segfaults on launch" bug, and
the fix is not the planned nixpkgs override:
1. gdb: the crash is btrfs_util_subvolume_iterator_next() —
libbtrfsutil's UNPRIVILEGED subvolume-iteration path in btrfs-progs
6.17.1 (upstream-fixed after 6.17.1, kdave/btrfs-progs 886571653).
Symbol versions were checked and match: not ABI/link drift.
2. VM A/B on real btrfs: as root it works (exit 0); as a user it
segfaults (139). The pkexec launcher runs it as root — so the GUI
path was fine all along, except…
3. …the distro shipped NO polkit authentication agent: every pkexec
prompt in the session failed silently. That is the actual root
cause of "the GUI doesn't open".
Shipped: hyprpolkitagent (Hyprland's Qt agent — the prompt is
Stylix-themed) via exec-once in hyprland.nix; `nomarchy-menu snapshot`
prefers btrfs-assistant-launcher again, with the nomarchy-snapshots
fzf flow kept as fallback (and for SSH); checks.snapshot-gui guards
the root path + offscreen GUI event loop on a real btrfs volume so a
lock bump can't silently regress it. No btrfs-progs patch: all our
flows are root-side; the unprivileged fix arrives with a lock bump.
Verified: V0 (flake check) + V2 (snapshot-gui check, executed green) +
V1 (HM generation builds; hyprland.conf carries the agent exec-once;
generated menu passes bash -n with the launcher wiring). Remaining V3
queued: first on-hardware themed polkit prompt.

modules/nixos/oom.nix — running out of memory now kills the offending
process (with a desktop notification via systembus-notify) instead of
freezing the desktop for minutes until the kernel OOM killer fires.
earlyoom over systemd-oomd, deliberately: oomd kills whole cgroups,
and a Hyprland session runs as ONE scope (nothing here spawns per-app
systemd scopes, unlike GNOME) — under pressure oomd would take out the
entire desktop to save it. earlyoom kills the single largest process
before the thrash point. nixpkgs default-enables oomd in an inert
state (no slices monitored); it is disabled outright so there is one
owner. Session plumbing is --avoid-listed (unanchored — NixOS wrappers
rename comm to .foo-wrapped); no --prefer tuning, largest-RSS
selection already finds the hog. All mkDefault; opt out with
services.earlyoom.enable = false (README note added).
Verified: V0 (flake check) + V2 — new checks.oom-protection
runNixOSTest, executed: a chunked allocator (686 MB peak, 1 GB VM) is
SIGTERM'd by earlyoom in 0.1 s, a bystander unit survives (the
process-level granularity the module exists for), and systemd-oomd is
asserted inactive. 25 s runtime.

settings.autoCommit — toggled from System › Auto-commit (self-gated on
the flake being a git repo) — makes every nomarchy-theme-sync apply/set
also git-commit theme-state.json in the downstream flake, so settings
history is `git log`. Off by default.
Design: the flag is live-read by the tool on each write (nothing in Nix
consumes it → instant toggle, no rebuild, no new option); the commit is
pathspec-limited to theme-state.json so unrelated dirty files are never
swept up; it fires when the flag is on before OR after the write, so
the disable-toggle itself lands in history; same-value writes no-op
(diff against HEAD); missing git identity falls back to
Nomarchy <nomarchy@localhost>; `bg next` is deliberately excluded.
Rider fix: `get` now prints booleans JSON-style (true, not Python's
True) — un-sticking the System menu's "Auto timezone (on/off)" label,
whose `= true` comparison could never match. All shell consumers
already normalise true|True, so no other behavior change.
Verified: V0 (py_compile, nix flake check) + V1 (HM generation builds,
generated nomarchy-menu passes bash -n, wiring present in the rendered
script) + a 7-assertion sandbox-repo round-trip covering enable/set/
same-value/disable/post-disable/apply paths and the identity fallback.
Remaining: on-machine check queued in agent/HARDWARE-QUEUE.md.

A git-tracked agent/ directory so AI agents can iterate on the distro
unattended (runner-agnostic: /loop, headless claude -p, or a fresh
manual session — all state lives in the checkout, per the distro's own
philosophy):
- LOOP.md — the iteration protocol: orient → pick one BACKLOG task →
verify up the V0–V3 ladder → commit+push main → record. Safety rails
(v1 untouchable, no force-push, no surprise lock bumps) and
stop-and-escalate conditions.
- BACKLOG.md — the forward half of docs/ROADMAP.md reworked into a
prioritized queue (5 NOW / 6 NEXT / LATER / PROPOSED / Decisions);
ROADMAP.md stays the design/decision record + shipped log.
- GOALS.md — the four pillars (stable > reproducible/zero-hidden-state >
effortless config > beautiful), quality bars, non-goals.
- CONVENTIONS.md — coding/design rules (in-flake state, menu placement,
Waybar whole-swap parity, toggle-vs-package, no formatter).
- MEMORY.md — curated hard-won lessons (VM recipes, btrfs-assistant
segfault watch, rofi/WirePlumber/hyprlock gotchas).
- HARDWARE-QUEUE.md — every pending V3 on-hardware check collected from
the ROADMAP, with exact steps, split by machine.
- JOURNAL.md — append-only iteration log, seeded with this bootstrap.
Plus a root CLAUDE.md entry point and README/ROADMAP pointers.
Verified: V0 — docs-only; nix flake check --no-build green.

Phase 3 of the in-flake-state philosophy (mirroring night-light + the
keyboard-layout watcher): a System ▸ Display menu item picks an output's
resolution and persists it into the flake instead of a runtime-only tweak.
- rofi.nix: the `display` case reads `hyprctl monitors -j` (auto-skips the
chooser with one output), lists the output's advertised modes (rounded
refresh, deduped, highest-first) plus the preferred/highres/highrr
tokens, applies the pick INSTANTLY via `hyprctl keyword monitor` —
keeping the output's current position + scale, so only the resolution
changes — then persists it with `nomarchy-theme-sync set
settings.monitors.<name> <mode> --no-switch` (no rebuild).
- theme.nix: seed `settings.monitors = {}` (output-name -> "WxH@R") so a
sparse/older state file still evaluates; exposed via nomarchy.settings.
- hyprland.nix: `resolvedMonitors` overlays settings.monitors onto
nomarchy.monitors by name — a declared output keeps its other fields
with only the resolution swapped, an undeclared output (wildcard-only,
e.g. the laptop panel) becomes a fresh rule. So a later rebuild bakes
the menu pick into the generated monitor rule — the monitor twin of the
keyboard graduation. The menu pick wins over a hand-set resolution (it's
the explicit live action).
Monitor connector names are dot-free, so a direct dotted set-path is safe
(no whole-map read-modify-write like the keyboard watcher needs).
VM-verified via a headless-Hyprland nixosTest (run + removed; too heavy
for a CI gate): the graduation baked the rule into the generated
hyprland.conf, the set/get round-trip persisted, and `hyprctl keyword
monitor` actually changed the reported resolution. Only the interactive
rofi picker isn't headlessly driveable (same caveat as the keyboard watcher).

Completes the remaining "Distro branding, round 2" work.
GRUB theme: hosts/live.nix builds nomarchyGrubTheme whose background is
the same composed splash as the isolinux/BIOS splash (accent logo on
base), with a palette-coloured boot menu and accent timeout bar. Derived
from nixos-grub2-theme only to reuse its bundled DejaVu .pf2; the stock
NixOS logo is dropped (ours is in the background). Wired as
isoImage.grubTheme so UEFI boot matches BIOS.
distroId: set system.nixos.distroId = "nomarchy" so os-release is honest
(ID=nomarchy, ID_LIKE=nixos). Safe — switch-to-configuration builds its
"is this NixOS?" guard from the configured distroId (and /etc/NIXOS is
the fallback), so rebuilds keep working. isNixos→false blanks the
nixos.org URLs, so extraOSReleaseArgs restores them to the project.
Adds checks.distro-id (runNixOSTest): boots distroId=nomarchy and runs
switch-to-configuration dry-activate green; os-release eval-verified from
the real downstream config; grub theme built + structure-verified.

Add checks.battery-charge-limit (runNixOSTest): the test_power module
fakes a Mains adapter, toggling ac_online emits a real power_supply
uevent, and the test asserts the udev rule restarts the oneshot (changed
InvocationID). Verifies the re-apply *trigger* at runtime, beyond the
earlier eval check; the sysfs write still needs real hardware. Also
records the SSH_AUTH_SOCK rendered-artifact verification in the roadmap.

The agent's SSH socket was only exported via the zsh integration, so a
GUI client launched outside a shell (rofi launcher, autostarted apps)
couldn't use gpg-agent for SSH. Add a home.sessionVariables export
resolving the socket with gpgconf --list-dirs agent-ssh-socket — the
same lookup the shell integration uses, so the two can't drift — which
reaches GUI apps via the login shell that starts Hyprland (the path
NIXOS_OZONE_WL already takes).
Eval-verified: the var resolves to the gpgconf substitution; the home
config still builds.

The threshold was written boot-only, so a firmware that clears
charge_control_end_threshold on unplug would silently lose the cap
until the next reboot. Add a services.udev rule on the mains adapter
(ATTR{type}=="Mains", vendor-neutral) that restarts the oneshot via
systemctl --no-block on every AC state change. Uses restart (not
try-restart) so it re-applies even if the boot run was inactive.
Eval-verified: rule present when the charge limit is on, absent when
off; downstream-template-system still evaluates.

A built-in RGB+IR webcam (common on recent ThinkPads, e.g. the T14s AMD
Gen 4) exposes its IR face-unlock sensor as a second, identically-named
"Integrated Camera"; apps that pick it show a dark, 8-bit-greyscale
image. nomarchy.hardware.camera.hideIrSensor disables that node on the
V4L2 PipeWire path (WirePlumber monitor.v4l2.rules) so only the colour
camera is offered, matched by card name (overridable irMatch).
- libcamera is left untouched: an external camera you plug in is never
affected, and surgical internal-only libcamera scoping isn't possible
(its distinguishing props bind after the monitor rule runs).
- Only the PipeWire node is hidden; the kernel /dev/video* stays open,
so Howdy face-unlock still reads the IR sensor directly.
- The installer's hardware-db.sh auto-detects a paired RGB+IR webcam
from /sys/class/video4linux/*/name and bakes the toggle into
system.nix; commented example added to the downstream template.
Validated live on a T14s: collapses the four enumerated "Integrated
Camera" entries to one colour source; the exact shipped regex disables
the IR node (confirmed in the WirePlumber log) and leaves libcamera
intact.

nomarchy.services.tailscale now makes the login user the Tailscale
operator (services.tailscale.extraSetFlags = ["--operator=<username>"],
mkDefault), so `tailscale up/down/set` — and the System → VPN menu's
Tailscale controls — run without sudo. The user is already in wheel, so
the operator grant is no real new privilege, just skips the prompt.
nomarchy-vpn's Tailscale actions are now operator-aware: a ts_priv
helper runs the subcommand inline and only falls back to a sudo terminal
if the operator grant is absent (downstream dropped it). Connect brings
an authed-but-down node up inline; a node that still needs interactive
login goes to a terminal so the auth URL is visible.
Option description + template comment updated; ROADMAP follow-up closed.
System + home builds green.

A dedicated System → VPN flow (nomarchy-vpn) past the wifi picker:
- NetworkManager VPN/WireGuard connections shown ● active / ○ inactive,
toggled up/down on select (networkmanager-group users need no sudo).
- Import a *.conf / *.ovpn via the fd picker → nmcli connection import,
type chosen by extension. networkmanager-openvpn ships system-side
(networking.networkmanager.plugins, mkDefault) so the openvpn type is
available; WireGuard is native to NetworkManager.
- Tailscale block, self-gated on the CLI (= nomarchy.services.tailscale):
read-only status + up/down + exit-node; privileged actions go through a
sudo terminal (the snapshot pattern), no operator wiring.
Waybar custom/vpn shield (nomarchy-vpn-status): self-hides unless a NM
tunnel or Tailscale is up; @good tone; click opens the submenu. Wired
into the generated bar and both summer whole-swaps. Decided import-first;
creation deferred to nm-connection-editor. ROADMAP marked shipped.
Eval + home/system builds green; both scripts pass bash -n. Pending an
on-machine check (live nmcli import/connect + Tailscale paths).

nomarchy.system.autoTimezone (off by default): geoclue + automatic-
timezoned drive /etc/localtime from your location, so travelling to
another zone updates the Waybar clock on its own.
Menu-driven, in-flake state (the night-light / keyboard philosophy):
the flag is settings.autoTimezone in theme-state.json (git-tracked); a
System-menu entry toggles it. Because it's a SYSTEM service — not a user
unit it can start/stop instantly like night-light — the toggle
(nomarchy-autotimezone, run in a terminal) writes the flag --no-switch
then drives `sudo nixos-rebuild` (bakes the service + the time.timeZone
override) plus `home-manager switch` (the Waybar-refresh watcher); both
sides read the one flag.
- modules/nixos/timezone.nix: parses settings.autoTimezone from
nomarchy.system.stateFile (like Plymouth), gates geoclue2 +
automatic-timezoned, and mkForce-nulls time.timeZone — automatic-
timezoned sets it null at normal priority, which collides with the
installer's static value (a hard eval error), so force wins and
reverts cleanly when disabled. Ships the nomarchy-autotimezone toggle.
- modules/home/timezone.nix: a tiny user service watching timedate1's
change signal that reloads Waybar (SIGUSR2) on a real zone change, so
the clock follows live (Waybar captures the zone at construction).
Gated on the same flag via nomarchy.settings.autoTimezone.
- rofi menu: "Auto timezone (on/off)" in the System submenu.
- option + template example + ROADMAP entry; theme.nix seeds the flag.
Eval-verified on (geoclue+daemon on, tz forced null over a static
installer value, watcher present) and off (static tz intact, nothing
extra); home + system both build green. Needs an on-hardware check
(geoclue detection + the SIGUSR2 clock refresh aren't CI-testable).

Phase 2 of the in-flake-state philosophy, mirroring night-light: the
nomarchy-keyboard-watch daemon now remembers per-device layouts in the
git-tracked state file (settings.keyboard.devices) instead of
~/.local/state/nomarchy/keyboard-layouts.
- Reads the LIVE working-tree map (theme-sync get → jq) so a pick this
session is honoured at once; writes instantly with --no-switch (no
rebuild). Writes the whole map back at the dot-free parent path
(read-modify-write) so a device name with a dot can't corrupt the
tool's dotted set-path (Hyprland only sanitises spaces→-).
- Graduation: nomarchy.keyboard.devices now mkDefault-merges entries
from settings.keyboard.devices, so each remembered device becomes a
generated Hyprland device{} block on the next rebuild (reproducible,
hotplug-applied). A hand-written keyboard.devices.<name> still wins;
once baked, the watcher's is_declared check makes it step back.
- theme.nix seeds settings.keyboard.devices = {} (sparse state still
evaluates); options/template descriptions updated; ROADMAP marked done.
Eval-verified (graduation + mkDefault precedence) and the set/get
writer round-trips. Still needs the on-hardware hotplug re-verify (the
picker path isn't testable in CI).

Night light is off by default and configured entirely through the menu,
writing into the downstream flake instead of ~/.local/state — so the
choice is git-tracked and reproducible across a clone+rebuild.
Two flags under a new settings.* section of the state file (exposed as
the nomarchy.settings option):
- settings.nightlight.installed — sticky, gates the hyprsunset unit;
nomarchy.nightlight.enable mkDefault-reads it. First enable from the
menu rebuilds to create the unit (the one accepted rebuild).
- settings.nightlight.on — runtime on/off, toggled instantly
(theme-sync set --no-switch + systemctl), no rebuild. An ExecCondition
reads the live flag at session start so an off survives reboot;
splitting it from the sticky flag means a later unrelated rebuild
never undoes an instant-off (no decay).
Drops the ~/.local/state/nomarchy/nightlight-off marker and the
ConditionPathExists hack. theme-sync set now skips the wallpaper
re-apply for non-wallpaper keys, and its rebuild notifications are
generic ("changes" not "theme").
First cut of the broader principle — any user-settable config gets a
menu writer that lands it in the flake; no state outside the checkout.
Docs (README §4, ROADMAP, template) updated to reflect it.
Eval- and round-trip-verified; on-hardware check pending.

A `nomarchy-menu printers` entry opens system-config-printer (the CUPS
admin GUI), mirroring the bluetooth/blueman pattern: the printing service
ships the package via environment.systemPackages and the menu execs it,
self-gated on the system-config-printer binary so the entry appears only
when nomarchy.services.printing is on. No direct keybind (rare one-off).

A manual `off` now drops ~/.local/state/nomarchy/nightlight-off and the
hyprsunset unit refuses to (re)start while it exists
(Unit.ConditionPathExists=!%h/...), so the off survives logout/reboot
until toggled back on. `on`/toggle-on remove the marker before starting
(a failed condition would otherwise no-op the start). Without the marker
behaviour is unchanged: the service stays WantedBy=graphical-session.target
and resumes its schedule at login, so persistence is opt-in via the toggle.

Capture the maintainer-side plan to automate advancing Nomarchy's own

Author a designed rofi.rasi whole-swap for the four remaining identity
themes, so all six now carry a distinct menu look (summer-day/night
already shipped their legacy ports). Each is built from the theme's
character rather than a legacy layout (their waybar overrides are
palette-only, so there was nothing to port):
- nord: soft rounded "frost panel" — frost border, brighter-frost
selection, aurora-purple prompt
- retro-82: sharp CRT terminal — square corners, amber-on-navy, a teal
scanline underline, mono
- lumon: clinical cyan "bezel" — thick cyan frame, a framed-not-filled
readout inputbar, mono
- kanagawa: ink & paper — warm washi-paper frame, deep ink-well inputbar,
crystal-blue wave selection
Each file is self-contained (it replaces the generated theme) and keeps
the element structure the theme-grid picker's per-invocation -theme-str
layers onto. rofi.nix needs no change — its existing themes/<slug>/
rofi.rasi probe whole-swaps when the file is present. All four parse
clean under `rofi -dump-theme`.

- network: replace the nmtui-in-a-terminal flow with networkmanager_dmenu
(native rofi wifi/VPN picker), configured via xdg config.ini to drive
rofi with rofi_highlight; editing a connection drops to nmtui.
- audio: new System -> Audio sink/source switcher via rofi-pulse-select,
self-gated on the PipeWire/pulse socket.
- search: case-insensitive fuzzy matching with fzf sorting across every
menu module and the launcher (so "system" finds "System").
Secrets module (rbw/pass) deferred — no Bitwarden/pass setup here.

Replace the plain-text `nomarchy-menu theme` list with a grid of real
desktop previews. The grid, the Name→slug map and the active `✓` mark
are generated at eval time from the preset JSONs (`readDir` + `fromJSON`
in rofi.nix); "active" is just `t.slug`, since every switch rebuilds the
menu. Grouped dark-first then light in one scrollable grid (the previews
make the mode obvious — no light/dark submenu split), `flow: horizontal`
so Down scrolls row-by-row.
Previews are committed as themes/<slug>/preview.png at 480×270 (~2.4 MB
for all 21). rofi's element-icon `size` is single-value → a *square*
cell that *contains* the icon, so a 16:9 preview would letterbox; a
build-time imagemagick step centre-crops each to a square so it fills
the cell edge-to-edge (source stays 16:9, crop is reversible). The
window width is derived from `themeGridIconW` so a column is exactly the
icon side — no slack margins. Themes without a preview degrade to a
plain-name row.

Flesh out the "Faster switches" item with the confirmed diagnosis (themes/
is 86 MB and backgrounds/ is all of it; the config is ~208 KB; wallpapers
are never read at eval; theme-state.json is git-tracked so every apply
re-copies the whole 86 MB source) and the decided-but-deferred approach:
Option 1, a separate pinned wallpapers artifact (repo/tarball via flake
input/fetchurl, read through the existing NOMARCHY_DEFAULT_THEMES hook),
which keeps eval pure. Notes the rejected impure-state alternative and the
pre-built-theme-variants follow-on.

Add opt-in nomarchy.updates (modules/home/updates.nix): a nomarchy-updates
checker on a systemd user timer (interval, default daily) that surfaces a
Waybar indicator + a notification when updates are available, without ever
changing anything (you still run sys-update / flatpak update).
It counts:
- flake inputs behind upstream — only the flake's DIRECT inputs (root.inputs:
nixpkgs, the Nomarchy input, home-manager, stylix…), not the transitive
closure, via `git ls-remote` vs the locked rev. Offline → skipped, never a
false alarm.
- Flatpak updates, when the flatpak CLI is present (.flatpak, gated on
services.flatpak being on) — Bernardo's suggestion.
Waybar custom/updates self-gates (hidden until the timer finds something;
accent " N", signal 9 for instant refresh), in the generated bar and both
summer whole-swaps. The notification fires only when the count grows, so a
daily timer doesn't nag. Click → the upgrade flow in a terminal (sys-update /
flatpak update, each confirmed). nomarchy-updates ships always on PATH and
self-gates so the static whole-swap bars can exec it even when the feature
is off.
Verified: flake check clean; home generation builds; the jq direct-input
filter + status self-gate exercised against the real flake.lock; script
passes bash -n. Pending an on-machine check (ls-remote/notify/timer need a
live session).

Add the agreed approach for prettifying nomarchy-menu theme into a rofi icon
grid of real themed-desktop previews: Bernardo captures previews on real
hardware and commits themes/<slug>/preview.png; a build-time derivation
downscales each to a thumbnail that the picker loads as the rofi element icon
(rofi already renders image files — same as the Papirus menu icons), with a
wallpaper/swatch/plain-name fallback while previews are added incrementally.
Notes the headless VM-render route was prototyped and works (runNixOSTest +
software-GL Hyprland + machine.screenshot QMP dump) but real-hardware capture
was chosen for fidelity; the working VM recipe is parked in memory. The
temporary flake checks.theme-shot spike is removed (too heavy for a CI gate).

Two menu improvements.
Back everywhere: every list menu now ends with a "↩ Back" entry that
returns one level up — power, theme, power-profile, clipboard, files,
capture, not just Tools/System — so you no longer have to Esc out and
reopen to back up. A `back` helper + a shared `BACK` label keep it uniform;
matched exactly so it can't collide with clipboard/filename content. Esc
still quits instantly.
Snapshot fallback: btrfs-assistant 2.2 segfaults on 26.05 (libbtrfsutil
ABI), so `nomarchy-menu snapshot` now launches nomarchy-snapshots instead —
a keyboard-driven snapper browser/restore. snapper is root-only here and
rofi can't run as root under Wayland, so it runs in a terminal via sudo
(one password prompt) and uses fzf to pick: browse/diff (read-only),
restore files (undochange), or roll back (root config only), each behind a
typed-`yes` confirmation — safer than a one-click rofi rollback.
btrfs-assistant stays installed for when nixpkgs fixes it.
Verified: flake check clean; home generation builds and the menu passes
bash -n with all Back + snapshot wiring; nomarchy-snapshots passes
shellcheck (writeShellApplication) in a snapper-enabled system build.
Pending an on-machine check of the restore/rollback paths.

The menu/Waybar toggle stops hyprsunset for the session only — it's
WantedBy=graphical-session.target, so the next login auto-starts it and the
off-state doesn't persist (deliberate "true colours for now" behaviour).
Record the persistent-off option (a state marker honoured via the unit's
ConditionPathExists) as an optional follow-up so it isn't forgotten.

Add a runtime toggle for the scheduled blue-light filter, the remaining
optional item on the night-light roadmap entry.
nomarchy-nightlight (nightlight.nix, always on PATH) starts/stops the
hyprsunset *service* rather than poking its runtime gamma: `systemctl
--user is-active` is the single source of truth, the screen restores to
true colours when stopped, and it lets you force the filter off for
colour-sensitive work (even at night) and back on without touching config.
It self-gates — `status` prints nothing when the unit is absent — so the
indicator hides itself when night-light isn't enabled.
- Menu: `nomarchy-menu nightlight` toggles it; a self-gated row in the
System submenu (shown only when the hyprsunset unit exists).
- Waybar: a self-gating `custom/nightlight` indicator (moon = on, sun =
off), in the generated bar and both summer whole-swap themes for parity.
Verified: home generation builds, generated waybar config carries
custom/nightlight, the menu has the dispatcher case + System row, both
scripts pass bash -n, and status self-gates to empty with no unit. Pending
an on-machine check that stopping hyprsunset cleanly restores the gamma.

Harden the hardware-enablement broad seed for newer hardware:
- xe vs i915: intel.guc emits the i915 param (i915.enable_guc=3), which the
newer `xe` driver (Lunar Lake / Battlemage / Panther Lake, recent Xe GPUs)
ignores — it enables GuC by default. hardware-db.sh now reads the in-use
GPU driver (lspci -k) and writes `intel.guc = false` on xe hardware, so the
toggle isn't a misleading no-op there.
- NPU detection by PCI accelerator class [1200] (+ keywords), attributing the
vendor, instead of a fixed device-ID list — so new NPUs (e.g. Panther Lake)
are caught without a code change. Known IDs kept as a fallback/reference.
- Kernel awareness: a nomarchy.hardware.latestKernel escape hatch
(linuxPackages_latest) for very-new hardware whose drivers only just landed,
and a build-time warning when npu.enable predates the shipped kernel
(amdxdna needs 6.14+, intel_vpu wants recent). Downstream default is 6.18,
which already carries amd-pstate + amdxdna; the reference host pins latest.
- VM test (checks.hardware-toggles, pkgs.testers.runNixOSTest): boots a
minimal VM with the toggles on and asserts the config landed — amd_pstate
+ i915.enable_guc in /proc/cmdline, fprintd.service present, pam_fprintd in
/etc/pam.d/sudo. Passing. (Hardware behaviour still needs bare metal.)
Docs: README + template note latestKernel; ROADMAP records the hardening.

The nixos-hardware "common-*" profiles the installer selects cover the
basics (microcode, the Intel/AMD VA-API media stack, weekly fstrim), and
power.nix adds thermald + power-profiles-daemon. This adds the gap above
them, generically and detected at install time.
New modules/nixos/hardware.nix exposes a vendor-keyed nomarchy.hardware.*
surface — broadly-beneficial bits default ON when the vendor is detected
(opt-out), heavy/experimental bits behind opt-in toggles:
- intel.enable -> GuC/HuC (i915.enable_guc=3); intel.computeRuntime
(opt-in: intel-compute-runtime + vpl-gpu-rt)
- amd.enable -> amd_pstate=active + radeonsi VA-API env; amd.rocm.enable
+ amd.rocm.gfxOverride (opt-in: ROCm HIP/OpenCL)
- fingerprint.enable -> fprintd; fingerprint.pam (opt-in: login + sudo)
- npu.enable (opt-in/experimental) -> the in-kernel driver
(amdxdna/intel_vpu) keyed by vendor; userspace runtime is BYO
hardware-db.sh now detects Intel/AMD, a fingerprint reader (libfprint USB
vendor IDs) and an NPU (Intel VPU / AMD XDNA PCI IDs), emitting NOMARCHY
lines the installer bakes into system.nix — safe defaults active, opt-ins
commented. Audited against the commons to avoid double-setting.
Verified: flake check green; a toggles-on build has amd_pstate=active +
i915.enable_guc=3 in kernel-params and ships fprintd.service; detection
runs correctly on the (AMD Ryzen-AI) dev machine. On-hardware verification
of the AMD/NPU/Intel-compute runtime bits is still pending.
Docs: template commented examples, README option table, ROADMAP status.

The interactive new-keyboard picker applied the chosen layout with
`hyprctl switchxkblayout <device> <index>`, which flips the *shared*
layout for every keyboard without its own per-device config — so picking
a layout for an external board dragged the built-in keyboard along, and
the change stuck after unplug (it's global state, not device-bound).
Compounding it, the candidate `keyboard.layouts` pool was merged into
`input.kb_layout`, loading those layouts onto the session keyboard too.
Apply the choice as a per-device `hyprctl keyword device[<name>]:kb_layout`
instead — the runtime twin of the declarative `keyboard.devices` blocks —
so it isolates that one keyboard and never touches the built-in board.
Keep the candidate pool out of `input.kb_layout` (session keyboard carries
only `keyboard.layout`); the pool is for external boards, applied per-device.
Also put `nomarchy-keyboard-watch` on PATH when enabled (it was store-path
only via exec-once, so undiscoverable) for debugging.
Found on the Latitude 5410 hardware sweep; picker itself verified working.

Finishing the four remaining "opt-in services" candidates — but two of
them aren't service-shaped, so the package-vs-toggle principle applies:
- Nextcloud client → a bare tray app; already in the app-suite menu,
not a service.
- WireGuard → NetworkManager (on distro-wide) imports .conf
tunnels natively, so there's no daemon to "just
enable". Only the wg/wg-quick CLI is missing →
wireguard-tools added to the app-suite menu.
The two that ARE config-backed become nomarchy.services.* toggles:
- openrgb → services.hardware.openrgb (daemon + device udev rules).
- restic → a small scaffolded surface (repository / passwordFile /
paths) over services.restic.backups: daily timer, 7/4/6
retention, --exclude-caches, repo auto-init. Asserts that
repository + passwordFile are set when enabled. passwordFile
is typed `str`, not `path`, so a flake-relative secret can't
be copied into the world-readable store.
README option table and ROADMAP (services now "Seventeen shipped";
cloud-sync / networking / backup / devices areas updated) + the downstream
system.nix examples. Both branches eval-verified; the restic assertions
confirmed firing when repo/password are unset.

Make the whole workstation menu available, all off/commented by default.
home.nix: the bare GUI apps become a categorized commented menu (~50
suggestions across browsers, comms, office, notes, code, graphics, A/V,
media, gaming, files/sync, security, system, local AI) — uncomment to add.
services.nix: the members that need system config (not just a package)
become opt-in nomarchy.services.* toggles, each with a commented example
in the downstream system.nix:
- docker → rootful Docker + user in docker group; asserts against the
podman docker-compat (both provide the `docker` command)
- kdeconnect → programs.kdeconnect (opens phone-pairing ports)
- gamemode → Feral GameMode daemon
- adb → android-tools (programs.adb was removed; systemd ≥258 does
the device uaccess udev rules, so no group needed)
- wireshark → Qt GUI + user in wireshark group (capture without root)
- ollama → local LLM runtime on 127.0.0.1:11434
- printing → CUPS + Avahi/mDNS network printer discovery
README option table and ROADMAP (services item now "Fifteen shipped";
local-AI / containers / gaming / devices areas marked) updated. All seven
branches eval-verified with the toggles forced on; the docker/podman
assertion confirmed firing.

The "default application suite" roadmap item, but deliberately NOT a
nomarchy.apps.* option surface: a bare package install has no config to
put behind a toggle, so a thin `mkIf x { systemPackages = [p]; }` only
reinvents what a package list already gives. Instead the suite is a
curated home.packages list in templates/downstream/home.nix (extending
the existing `# firefox` convention) — active staples (libreoffice,
vscode, gimp, inkscape, mpv, amberol) plus commented suggestions. The
opt-out is deleting a line; it also keeps the apps out of the live ISO
automatically (the ISO never scaffolds from the template).
The members that DO need system config become nomarchy.services.* opt-in
toggles instead (config behind the switch, like the existing services):
- steam → programs.steam (32-bit stack, controller udev, RP ports)
- libvirt → libvirtd + virt-manager, login user added to libvirtd group
- obs → obs-studio + a v4l2loopback virtual camera (exclusive_caps=1)
selectable as a webcam in Zoom/Teams
README option table, ROADMAP (services item now "Eight shipped"; suite
item marked done with the no-surface rationale) and the downstream
system.nix examples updated to match.
