 - **Forgejo release pipeline.** `vYY.MM.x` tags matching the upstream NixOS channel; the pipeline pushes the three ISOs and an updated `flake.lock` snapshot.
 - **Optional `nomarchy-installer-vm`** rebuilt as a real flake app (not a one-off shell script) so users can install Nomarchy into a libvirt VM declaratively.
 - **Surface support module** via the relevant `nixos-hardware` profile + Surface kernel patches behind a `nomarchy.hardware.isSurface` toggle.
+- **Consolidate palette imports in `flake.nix` via `nomarchyLib`.** `flake.nix:79-80` re-imports `./themes/palettes` and recomputes `themeNames` even though `lib/default.nix` already exports both. Two computations, same result today — drift risk tomorrow. Import `nomarchyLib = import ./lib { inherit lib; }` once and use `nomarchyLib.{palettes,themeNames}` to make `lib/default.nix` the single source of truth for the theme list.

 # Nomarchy State Schema
-# Defines the complete state shape with defaults for both home and system state
+#
+# Defines the default values for every state.json field that's consumed by a
+# Nix option. Read by core/{system,home}/options.nix (for `default = …`) and
+# by core/{system,home}/state.nix (for `or` fallbacks).
+#
+# state.json may also hold runtime-only fields that aren't declared here —
+# notably `welcome_done`, managed by `nomarchy-welcome`. Those are intentionally
+# off-schema because no Nix option reads them; the schema is the "consumed by
+# Nix" surface, not the full state.json shape.
