Every bind in keybinds.nix carries a group; SUPER+? renders section
headers. checks.keybinds-cheatsheet asserts all groups are valid and
every description appears in the sheet (same source as Hyprland binds).
Verified: V0 flake check; built cheatsheet shows ── Window ── / etc.
Ghostty's OpenGL 4.3 floor broke the Acer (HD 4000 / 4.2). Dual-terminal
support (default Ghostty + install-time Kitty fallback) was more complexity
than it was worth.
- Remove ghostty.nix / nomarchy.ghostty.enable
- Kitty always installed and themed from theme-state
- Default nomarchy.terminal = kitty; SUPER+Return, doctor, calendar,
what-changed use kitty --class=com.nomarchy.*
- Drop install-time glxinfo probe and mesa-demos on the installer
- Docs/REQUIREMENTS no longer list OpenGL 4.3 as a terminal floor
Verified: V0 flake check; option-docs; installer-safety; template HM has
kitty, no ghostty; menu/calendar emit classed kitty launches.
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.

BACKLOG #96 + #97 (Acer live pass). Battery limit: the System row now
gates on battery presence (same rule as Power profile) instead of the
charge-threshold sysfs node, so firmware without the control gets the
leaf's explanation ("no charge_control_end_threshold — hardware
capability") rather than a silently missing row that reads as a broken
feature. Bluetooth: the leaf checks bluetooth.service before launching
blueman-manager and replaces the raw "Connection to BlueZ failed" with
a state-aware message (service stopped vs no adapter in
/sys/class/bluetooth, with rfkill/firmware hints).
Verified: V1 — nomarchy-menu builds, bash -n green, both paths in the
generated script; V0 flake check green. QEMU can fake neither a
threshold-less battery nor a BT adapter: #96 behavioral check queued in
HARDWARE-QUEUE (Acer + T14s); #97's no-adapter message will be
click-checked in the next VM run (V2 pending).

BACKLOG #107: both submenus get conflict-free direct bindings through
the canonical keybinds.nix (single source for Hyprland binds and the
SUPER+? cheatsheet) — I follows the Super+I settings muscle memory,
T is Tools. The root-menu rows now show the shortcuts via menuHint.
Verified: V2 — eval audit: 41 binds, no duplicate mods+key; both binds
present in the generated Hyprland config; built nomarchy-menu passes
bash -n with cheatsheet rows + hints rendered. In-session on the live
ISO KVM run: viewed 40-system-menu.png / 41-tools-menu.png in
/tmp/nomarchy-v2-swap-93/ — each bind opens its submenu directly.
V0 flake check green.

Restore the old flake's external-only workspace handoff, protect closed-lid cable removal with a verified low-level logind inhibitor, and use monitor-added as the settled audio reprobe boundary.
Verified: V2 — nix flake check --no-build; docking-ux, option-docs, and template-sot checks; KVM tools/monitor-fallback.nix lifecycle test.
V3 pending: closed-lid BenQ round 4 in agent/HARDWARE-QUEUE.md.
Real dock QA exposed pointer-bound menus, an absent default rescue watcher, the unsafe zero-output panel-off path, missing keyboard/audio hotplug coverage, and unpainted new outputs.
Route Rofi to the focused output; replace panel disable with safe workspace migration; always run and reconnect the display watcher and repaint hotplugged outputs; expose a default per-device keyboard picker; handle audio card availability transitions.
Verified: V1 — nix flake check --no-build; checks.docking-ux real Home Manager artifact build; option-docs/template-sot; Nix parse, py_compile, and git diff --check. V2 unavailable: no readable KVM. V3 pending in agent/HARDWARE-QUEUE.md.
Bernardo's dock test (the #87 V3): audio stayed on EasyEffects→speakers.
Root cause, established live: WirePlumber's stored default
(default-nodes state, written by any past explicit pick) outranks the
priority.session rules, so #87 alone can never move the default on a
real machine; EasyEffects 8 follows the default device (kcfg default
true, verified by watching its output links). Fix: nomarchy-dock-audio
(modules/home/dock-audio.nix, nomarchy.dockAudio.enable, default on) —
a pactl-subscribe watcher that set-default-sinks new dock-class sinks
(regex data imported from modules/nixos/dock-audio-rules.nix, single
source) with a toast, plus a startup sweep for login-while-docked that
never overrides a manual in-dock pick. Unplug falls back by priority.
Menus: Display gains docked rows — "Laptop screen off · everything →
<ext>" (live-only disable; a persisted one could black-screen an
undocked boot), "Screen on · <name>", "Move workspace · → next
monitor", "Swap workspaces" (exactly-2 gate); Audio gains a self-gated
"Send output → <dock sink>" quick row. All self-gate on real outputs.
Verified: V2-equivalent on live hardware (no dock available) — watcher
followed a fake dock-named null sink and fell back on unload, control
run without the watcher stayed pinned (proving the stored-default
diagnosis), EE output links moved mid-playback; generated menu bash -n
green, dock-row jq exercised on real pactl JSON, dispatchers probed on
live Hyprland; flake check + option-docs + template-sot green.
V3 pending: real-dock retest ×2 in HARDWARE-QUEUE (watcher keys on
new-sink events; pre-existing nodes that only flip route availability
would need the queued diagnosis data).

With settings.autoCommit on, only menu/theme mutations were committed
(theme-sync pathspec-limits to theme-state.json by design), so hand
edits to system.nix/home.nix and lock bumps stayed forever-dirty.
New internal nomarchy-autocommit (nomarchy-lifecycle): live-reads the
same flag, commits everything dirty as "nomarchy: auto-commit before
<pull|rebuild|home switch>" with the swept file list in the body,
fallback identity, never fatal (|| true at call sites). Called at the
top of all three lifecycle commands; before the ff-only pull it also
un-dirties the tree. Exposed via passthru.autocommit + package export;
guarded by checks.lifecycle-autocommit (sandbox repos: sweep, no-op on
clean/off/non-repo). Sync sweep: README, RECOVERY, ROADMAP, rofi
toggle, control-center prompt, theme-sync docstring, JOURNAL.
Verified: V1+ — flake check --no-build green; the new check builds;
end-to-end run of the built nomarchy-rebuild (stubbed sudo/rebuild)
against a copy of a real dirty ~/.nomarchy: 4 files → one commit,
clean tree. No VM boot — no session-visible surface.

rofi hard-fails on a duplicate keybinding and reports it in a GUI error
dialog, not stderr — so 05bab55's Left=Back killed every menu entry
point on a real session while passing all stubbed tests. Rebind
kb-move-char-back to Control+b in both rofi_menu copies (menu + vpn).
V3 on the migrated T14s: error dialog reproduced with old flags, menu

Post-migration annoyances from TuringMachine:
- Force fprintAuth from fingerprint.pam (NixOS defaults it on with fprintd)
- First-boot toast waits for swaync, retries, only marks after success
- Night light status/toggle handles masked units + hyprsunset/wlsunset
- VPN menu: define rofi_menu in nomarchy-vpn (was a silent no-op)
- Left arrow = ↩ Back in list menus; GTK menu contrast via Stylix
- Mic-mute LED udev + sync after wpctl; EasyEffects starts after tray
- Migration guide: HM before GUI login, fingerprint/browser/VPN notes
Verified: flake check --no-build; checks.first-boot; checks.hardware-toggles
(pam=false node). V3 session items pending after user rebuild.
nomarchy-what-changed wraps nvd into "N added, M removed, K updated"
summaries. nomarchy-rebuild / nomarchy-home print full nvd and toast
the one-liner; System › What changed? offers toast + floating report.
checks.what-changed fixtures nvd via NOMARCHY_NVD.
Verified: V2 — flake check --no-build; checks.what-changed green;
local smoke on real HM generations.
Launch nomarchy-doctor via ghostty --class=com.nomarchy.doctor (same
pattern as the calendar popup) and match float/size/center windowrules
so System › Doctor and the Waybar doctor click no longer tile.
Verified: V1 — downstream-template-home builds; menu carries the class;
hyprland.conf has float/size/center for com.nomarchy.doctor;
windowrule-syntax green (19 rules). V2 live float confirm after
nomarchy-home (same class mechanism as calendar).
The Exit node picker listed bare hostnames; Mullvad-style nodes are
meaningless without their location. Rows are now
"hostname — Country City", sliced from `tailscale exit-node list` by
the header's fixed-width column offsets (COUNTRY/CITY can be
multi-word, so field splitting is wrong by construction); nodes without
a location stay a bare hostname, and the pick strips back to the
hostname at the first space before `tailscale set --exit-node`.
Closes BACKLOG LATER "VPN exit-node richer display"; the VPN
HARDWARE-QUEUE entry now covers the location rows.
Verification: V1 — the awk was proven against a fabricated fixture
(one-word city, multi-word "United States / New York, NY", bare
self-hosted node), flake check exit 0, downstream-template-home builds
(writeShellScriptBin syntax-gates the script). Real `tailscale
exit-node list` output stays V3 (existing VPN menu live-paths entry).

Two low-severity edge bugs from a fresh-eyes review of the session batch:
- cmd_auto: an inverted schedule (sunrise > sunset, i.e. a day window that
crosses midnight) stayed perpetually on the day theme — the old
`not between` shortcut is an empty interval when sunrise > sunset.
Replaced with a real wrap-around: daytime = mins >= sunrise or
mins < sunset, so both directions switch. Normal sunrise < sunset path
is unchanged (checks.auto-theme still holds).
- rofi autotheme HH:MM validator: `[0-2][0-9]` accepted 24:00–29:59.
Tightened the case pattern to `[01][0-9]:[0-5][0-9]|2[0-3]:[0-5][0-9]`
so out-of-range hours are rejected (they'd otherwise skew the boundary).
(Two other review findings dismissed: papirus DOES ship breeze/breeze-dark
so that iconPacks prefix is correct; the doctor RAM-unknown row is cosmetic
since /proc/meminfo is always readable.)
Verification: py_compile; boundary truth-table (normal + wrap-around);
HH:MM case table (23:00/19:59/20:00 accept, 24/25/30:00 reject); auto
--which normal-case unchanged; menu bash -n; flake check green.

Adds an "Auto theme (on/off)" row to Look & Feel and an `autotheme`
submenu: toggle the feature, pick the day/night themes (from
`nomarchy-theme-sync list`), and set the sunrise/sunset times (HH:MM,
validated). This is the menu surface over settings.autoTheme, completing
the auto time-of-day theme feature (slices: CLI / timer / menu).
Enabling writes the flag and defaults the summer-day/summer-night pair
--no-switch, then runs `auto --force`, so a single rebuild both installs
the timer and applies the correct theme for now. Disabling is instant
(--no-switch): the flag flips and `auto` self-gates, so the lingering
timer no-ops until the next rebuild. Day/night/time writes are live
--no-switch (read by `auto` at tick time).
Verification: V1 — HM generation builds (bash -n on nomarchy-menu at
build) + bash -n on the built menu. Logic test with stubbed
rofi/theme-sync/notify: selecting the toggle from off runs exactly `set
day/night/enable ... --no-switch` then `auto --force` — the intended
one-rebuild path. V0 flake check green. All three #79 slices shipped;
the live timer switch across sunset is a real-session (V3) check on a
Nomarchy machine.

Per the settled #76 UX call: keep the Power-menu Hibernate row
unconditional, but when hibernate fails (typically a swap=0 machine with
no disk swap), surface a notification pointing at the enable-hibernation
runbook instead of a silent no-op. On success `systemctl hibernate`
blocks until resume, so the notify only fires on a real failure.
Verification: V1 — homeConfigurations.nomarchy.activationPackage builds
(rebuilds nomarchy-menu; writeShellScriptBin runs bash -n). Control-flow
proved on the arm extracted from the built script: failing systemctl ->
notify fires, succeeding -> no notify. flake check --no-build green.
V2 hibernate->resume VM test + V3 laptop remain open (#76 slice 3).

charge_control_end_threshold was written (80) but charge_types stayed
[Adaptive], which ignores the cap while still reporting it — battery
kept charging past 80% on Latitude. Oneshot now selects Custom when a
limit is set, Adaptive/Standard when off; sets start hysteresis; doctor
warns if type ≠ Custom while limited.
V0: flake check --no-build green. V3: re-apply limit, confirm
charge_types shows [Custom] and status stops Charging above cap.
dmenu mode is case-sensitive by default (dmenu compat), so config.rasi
case-sensitive=false fixed apps/drun but not nomarchy-menu pickers.
rofi_menu helper always passes -i; networkmanager_dmenu gets rofi -i.
V0: flake check --no-build green. V3: type sys in root Menu → System.
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.

Always-visible install surface on the live ISO: xdg.desktopEntries
(Terminal=true) plus Tools › Install Nomarchy (self-gated on
nomarchy-install on PATH). Welcome toast mentions the app. Close#57.
Verified: V1 (live eval + HM menu rebuild). V2 pending: ISO smoke.
#54: permanent checks.installer-safety; test-install-safety harness with
offline compose-fail, LUKS-signature disk warn, and HM-hint FORCE paths.

#50: Bluetooth menu row + handler self-gate on `command -v
blueman-manager` (no-op when bluetooth is off, like Printers); Control
Center rollback list /tmp/nomarchy-gens → mktemp; usbutils on the

nomarchy-doctor/control-center/battery-notify as flake packages.

Also records #46: the swap=0 + unattended-LUKS fail-closed contracts

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.

Added satty (Wayland-native screenshot annotation tool) and integrated it with the Capture flow.
Wired `$mod SHIFT, Print` to slurp a region and open satty.
Added "Annotate region" to the rofi Capture menu (Tools > Capture).
Added satty's configuration via home-manager to inject the active theme's palette colors into its UI.
Verified: V1 (flake check --no-build, home activation package build).
Pending: V3 hardware/visual check for the satty UI (queued in HARDWARE-QUEUE.md).
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).

Iteration #66 (direct request: "make sure menu items that have a keybind
display it"). Audit found every SUPER(+CTRL) module-opening row already
hinted (item 28c); the one gap was Tools ▸ Capture — its Region/Full
screen rows run the exact grim commands of the Print / SHIFT+Print /
CTRL+Print binds but showed nothing. Adds `hintForBind mods key` (matches
keybinds.nix by mods+key, so no drift and no brittle full-action compare)
and `-markup-rows` on the Capture menu so the spans render.
Verified: V0 green; V1 HM built — shipped nomarchy-menu shows
`Region → clipboard {{Print}}`, `Region → file {{SHIFT + Print}}`,
`Full screen → file {{CTRL + Print}}`. Substring case-matches precede the
appended span, so dispatch is unchanged. V3 (pango dim render) queued.

Item 32. Item 26 added SHIFT to the modmask but kept the shifted keysym
`question`, so the bind stayed dead. Hyprland 0.55 resolves a bind's
keysym with SHIFT consumed (issue #7750, behaviour since 0.43): with
Shift held, `$mod SHIFT, question` is matched against `slash` and never
fires. The base keysym is what works — same pattern as this file's own
`$mod SHIFT, 1` workspace binds. Also updates rofi.nix prettyKeys to
collapse "SHIFT + /" → "?" so the cheatsheet row still reads "SUPER + ?".
Verified: V0 `nix flake check --no-build` green; V1 HM activation built,
built hyprland.conf carries `bind=$mod SHIFT, slash, exec, nomarchy-menu
keybinds` (kb_layout=us → slash is `?`). The keypress opening the menu is
V3 — queued (HARDWARE-QUEUE, existing SUPER+? entry updated).

Add a `batterylimit` nomarchy-menu subcommand — a preset picker
(80/90/60/Off/Custom…) that writes settings.power.batteryChargeLimit via
theme-sync (--no-switch; lands on the next sys-rebuild, power.nix's oneshot
applies it). Surfaced as a first-class System row, self-gated on the
charge_control_end_threshold sysfs node like Power profile.
Moved out of the gum control-center (removed its Battery Limit case +
choose entry) so the toggle lives in one place — the rofi menu Bernardo
actually uses, per his request.

Swap the vim-style SUPER+H/J/K/L focus binds for SUPER+arrow keys
(movefocus l/r/u/d). SUPER+arrows were unbound and there are no vim
move-window binds, so no collision. prettyKeys renders the arrow keysyms
as glyphs so the SUPER+? cheatsheet shows "SUPER + <-" not "SUPER + left".

Two rofi fixes:
- Search (item 31): rofi 2.0.0's fzf sorter mis-ranks fuzzy matches —
typing "steam" left ghostty selected instead of Steam. Bernardo's live
A/B confirmed `-sorting-method normal` and `-matching normal` both fix
it while `-no-sort` does not. Switch sorting-method fzf → normal, keep
matching=fuzzy + case-sensitive=false.
- Power profile menu (item 39): list profiles with per-profile icons from
Papirus' colored battery-profile-{performance,balanced,powersave} family
(the -symbolic variants are #444 grey, invisible on dark). Row text
stays the bare profile name so `powerprofilesctl set` is unaffected.

The mode picker's Back did `exec "$0" display`. On a single-monitor
machine with no display profiles the output chooser is skipped, so
re-running `display` dropped straight back into the same mode picker — an
apparent no-op. Track modeBack (display when the chooser was shown, else
system) and dispatch Back to it, so single-monitor Back leaves Display.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Every submenu's "↩ Back" row rendered two arrows: the ↩ glyph in the
label plus a themed go-previous icon. back() now emits the plain label
only — identical to what pick-lists already append — so Back shows a
single glyph everywhere. BACK="↩ Back" stays the universal label/match,
so no case-branch comparison changes.

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.

SUPER+Space/D open `rofi -show drun -theme launcher`, but the main menu's
"Apps" entry still ran bare `rofi -show drun`, so that path skipped the
per-theme launcher override (e.g. Boreal's icon grid) and fell back to the
list. Same theme for both launch sites now — consistent launcher whichever
way it's opened.
V0: flake check green; no bare `rofi -show drun` launch sites remain.

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).

Tools › Capture gains "OCR region → clipboard", self-gated on
tesseract: slurp the region (Esc cancels silently, the recording.nix
pattern), grim it, tesseract stdin→stdout, wl-copy. Whitespace-only
recognition toasts "No text recognized" instead of clobbering the
clipboard; success toasts the word count. tesseract ships English-only
through the menu's package set — the unscoped wrapper pulls every
language's traineddata, a real cost on a compile-from-source distro;
overriding with more languages is documented at the package line.
Verified: V0; V1 — template-home builds with the gated row + case and
menu bash -n; functional — the profile's own tesseract read a rendered
test image back verbatim, proving the OCR half of the pipe. The
grim/slurp half needs a session → HARDWARE-QUEUE.

The gate was >=3 appearance entries and it's met: the root's Theme row
becomes "Look & Feel" (pango-escaped & — the root passes
-markup-rows; matched on *Look*), a new lookfeel submenu carries the
Theme grid (SUPER+T hint), Next wallpaper (SUPER+SHIFT+T hint via the
new generalized hintForAction, which menuHint is now sugar over), and
the Night light toggle moved out of System — which thins by one row.
The root stays at six entries; both direct binds still hit the leaves.
Verified: V0; V1 — rendered menu passes bash -n with the mode, escaped
label and relocated night-light row; visual — tokyo-night 1080p
capture renders "Look & Feel" correctly with hints intact. Submenu
flow queued for a session test (HARDWARE-QUEUE).

nomarchy.launchOrFocus (opt-in, commented template example): each
entry gives a key that FOCUSES the app's existing window
(case-insensitive class match via jq + a "(?i)" focuswindow regex) or
launches it when none is open. One shared nomarchy-focus-or-launch
script; a bind whose command was removed from the suite fires a
"not installed" toast instead of failing silently. The same entries
render into the SUPER+? cheatsheet through prettyKeys — bind and
documentation stay one source. README row added.
Verified: V0; V1 — a scratch downstream with two entries renders both
binds (default command = lowercased class; custom mods/command/desc
honored), the script passes bash -n with a usage guard, and the
cheatsheet carries both rows. Focus behaviour needs a session -> V3
(HARDWARE-QUEUE).

The audit flagged the root picker as six short rows in ~760px of
empty width; the space now carries discoverability. menuHint renders
a dimmed pango span (size small, 55% alpha) from the SAME keybinds.nix
the Hyprland binds and the SUPER+? cheatsheet come from (prettyKeys),
so hints can never drift. Applied to the root picker (Apps special-
cased — it's rofi drun), all Tools leaves, and the System rows with
direct binds; those menus pass -markup-rows. Contains-glob matching
and the exact "↩ Back" row are unaffected.
Verified: V0; V1 (rendered menu bash -n, spans + 3x -markup-rows
present); visual — tokyo-night 1080p capture shows the hints dimmed
and subordinate on normal and selected rows alike.
