Bernardo 2026-07-14: the fastfetch logo should be crisper, with straight lines. Filed with the cause rather than the wish. modules/home/fastfetch.nix converts the vector mark with `chafa --symbols block --size 20x10`, and that symbol class is the chunkiness: restricted to full/half blocks, a 20x10 grid carries ~20x20 pixels of detail, so every diagonal staircases. chafa 1.18.2 ships sextant (2x3 subcells), quad and wedge — verified present today, so the cheap lever exists. Named the trap that decides the approach, because trying it first is what prevents a wasted round: sextants are Unicode 13 Symbols for Legacy Computing, and if the shipped terminal font lacks them the logo renders as tofu — strictly worse than chunky. So font coverage in the real Ghostty gets checked before a symbol class is chosen, and if it is missing, hand-authored box-drawing art is the honest alternative (and the only way to get genuinely straight lines; any image→symbol converter approximates). Also recorded that the three logo surfaces are different renderers — fastfetch, the ISO splash, the Waybar glyph font — so this item touches one of them, while a change to the shared logo.svg would hit all three and should be split. Visual change, so THEME-DESIGN and the honesty rule apply: pass needs screenshots viewed under two themes, no tofu, accent tracking intact, and the fastfetch row grid still aligned. V0: nix flake check --no-build passes. Backlog only. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Agent instructions + loop state
Everything an AI agent needs to work on Nomarchy, vendor-neutral and git-tracked. Protocol: LOOP.md. Entry point for every harness: repo-root AGENTS.md.
Instructions (how to work)
| File | Who writes | Role |
|---|---|---|
| LOOP.md | Human | One-iteration protocol (orient → pick → work → verify → commit → record) + the V0–V3 ladder |
| VERIFICATION.md | Human (agents propose) | Enforcement: preflight, honesty rules, visual protocol, hardware-blocked checks, reporting |
| DELEGATION.md | Human (agents propose) | Capability tiers, scout/runner roles, token economy, parallel fan-out |
| GOALS.md | Human (agents propose) | Pillars, quality bars, non-goals |
| CONVENTIONS.md | Human (agents propose) | How to write code/menu/state while shipping |
| THEME-DESIGN.md | Human (agents propose) | Theme/visual design instructions |
State (what's happening)
| File | Who writes | Role |
|---|---|---|
| BACKLOG.md | Both | Prioritized queue — only executable work list |
| JOURNAL.md | Agents | Append-only iteration log (read last 3–5 entries; older → JOURNAL-ARCHIVE.md) |
| MEMORY.md | Agents | Curated durable gotchas |
| HARDWARE-QUEUE.md | Agents append, human checks | On-hardware V3 tests only Bernardo can run |
Product / design docs (not a queue)
| File | Role |
|---|---|
| ../docs/VISION.md | v1.0 product themes — agents slice into BACKLOG PROPOSED |
| ../docs/ROADMAP.md | Design history + shipped log |
| ../docs/README.md | Full docs map |
Harness adapters (vendor-specific, thin)
Shared content never lives in an adapter — adapters only register/route into the files above, in whatever format their harness requires.
| Path | Harness | Role |
|---|---|---|
| ../AGENTS.md | any | Entry point (CLAUDE.md is a symlink to it) |
| ../.claude/settings.json | Claude Code | Tool permissions |
| ../.claude/agents/ | Claude Code | nomarchy-scout / nomarchy-runner role defs (contracts in DELEGATION.md) |
Do not put backlog items, vision text, or policy under an adapter directory — it is not shared with other agent runners.
Rules of thumb
- Execute from BACKLOG only (NOW → NEXT; never PROPOSED without human triage).
- Orient with GOALS + CONVENTIONS + MEMORY + last journal + BACKLOG; when the task is product-shaped, also read the relevant VISION §.
- Record lasting design in ROADMAP ✓ when something ships that future humans should know; delete the BACKLOG line.
- v1 branch is human-only — never advance from an agent session.
