Bernardo tested the lock screen after turning `fingerprint.pam` on: sudo took
a finger, hyprlock did nothing. The PAM stack was not the problem — grosshack
sits in /etc/pam.d/hyprlock at order 11400 exactly like sudo's. hyprlock just
never asks it: its PAM conversation runs only on submit, so a module that
wants to prompt *while* polling the reader never gets a turn. hyprlock has its
own fprintd-over-D-Bus backend instead, behind `auth:fingerprint:enabled`,
which nothing in the distro ever set. So `fingerprint.pam = true` promised
"login + sudo" and silently skipped the surface you meet most often.
The second half is the one worth having: enabling the backend alone yields a
reader that works while the field still reads "password…". $FPRINTPROMPT is
the ONLY slot hyprlock renders the ready/scanning/failed messages into, and
ours hardcoded the placeholder — proven on hardware, where a test config with
the backend on unlocked by finger and said nothing whatsoever. A feature that
works and cannot be discovered fails VISION's "discoverable without reading
the README" either way, so the placeholder now carries $FPRINTPROMPT and the
messages mirror sudo's "Enter Password or Place finger".
New `nomarchy.idle.fingerprint` (default false), mirroring
`nomarchy.hardware.fingerprint.pam` the way `nomarchy.keyboard.layout` mirrors
`services.xserver.xkb.layout`: hyprlock is configured in standalone Home
Manager, which has no `osConfig` to derive the NixOS side from. Opt-in rather
than implied, because with no reader hyprlock advertises a scan that cannot
happen. Documented in the template (SoT for opt-in comments) and README —
option-docs caught the missing row, which is the check doing its job.
Verified V2: nix flake check --no-build; checks.option-docs passes (failed
first with "undocumented option", as it should). V3 pending: Bernardo applies
it and confirms the field reads "password… or scan finger" and both factors
work — the mechanism itself is already proven on his reader via a test config.

Explicit HandleLidSwitchDocked=ignore under services.logind so closing
the lid with an external display connected does not suspend. Undocked
lid path left to upstream defaults. checks.clamshell-logind asserts the
baked logind.conf and active logind; real multi-monitor lid V3 queued.
Verified: V2 — flake check --no-build; checks.clamshell-logind green.
V3 pending: HARDWARE-QUEUE #86 lid+external on a laptop.
The previous nomarchy-hibernate-unlock ran `pkill hyprlock` after a
hibernate resume, but killing a Wayland session-lock client without
releasing the lock trips hyprlock's "go to a tty" crash failsafe -- the
compositor keeps the screen locked for safety. So resume showed a hyprlock
error screen instead of unlocking.
Fix it the right way: never engage the lock before an encrypted hibernate
(the LUKS passphrase at resume is the gate). Replace the post-resume unlock
with a nomarchy-lock-before-sleep unit that takes over hypridle's
before_sleep_cmd: it locks on the RAM-resume sleeps (suspend / hybrid-sleep
/ suspend-then-hibernate) always, and on hibernate.target only when the disk
is unencrypted. idle.nix drops before_sleep_cmd accordingly.

hypridle's suspend listener now runs `nomarchy-on-ac || systemctl
suspend`, so a plugged-in machine no longer suspends itself mid-idle
(long builds, media, presentations survive). It also fires sooner —
15 min, vs the old fixed 30 — since it now only applies unplugged.
Lock and screen-off are unchanged on both power sources, and logind's
lid handling stays at its sensible defaults (suspend on lid close,
ignore when docked).
Closes the idle-cohesion follow-up under the laptop-power roadmap item.

hypridle locks hyprlock before every sleep -- right for suspend, but
redundant for hibernate: the LUKS passphrase entered at boot already gates
the resume, so the user typed a password twice. Add a nomarchy-hibernate-
unlock systemd unit (WantedBy hibernate.target, After systemd-hibernate.service
=> runs post-resume) that dismisses hyprlock, gated on the disk being LUKS-
encrypted. Suspend (and the RAM-resume phase of suspend-then-hibernate) keep
locking -- they have no passphrase gate; an unencrypted hibernate keeps its
lock too. idle.nix gains a pointer comment; roadmap item marked done.

- Plymouth boot splash ported from the legacy branch (modules/nixos/
plymouth/): logo + eased progress + LUKS entry, background tinted from
theme-state.json via the new nomarchy.system.stateFile (wired by
mkFlake/lib.nix; null → Tokyo Night fallback). Default on; OFF on the
live ISO (boot-message visibility on the install medium). Pulls
boot.initrd.systemd, which also drives the keyboard-at-LUKS feature.
- system.nixos.distroName = "Nomarchy" (os-release PRETTY_NAME,
systemd-boot entries, ISO menu label). distroId left "nixos" (feeds
DEFAULT_HOSTNAME + upstream isNixos checks — roadmapped).
- nixpkgs.config.allowUnfree distro-wide (here + both import-nixpkgs
sites) — unblocks claude-code for the menu's ask-Claude module.
- systemd-boot.configurationLimit = 10 so entries don't fill the ESP.
- Live ISO: nomarchy.idle.enable = false — hypridle was suspending the
VM mid-install (the install-hung regression); installed systems keep it.
- flake.nix offline pins (verified 0-leak via a foreign-identity
gap-analysis probe): the repo's own standalone HM gen + inputDerivations,
mustache-go + stdenv (stylix re-renders base16 per switch), microcode-amd/
intel (enableRedistributableFirmware activated updateMicrocode →
source-build cascade), buildEnv's builder.pl, findXMLCatalogs, and the
representativeInstall mirror (xkb/initrd-systemd/microcode).
