Round 6 passed on the plug side but unplugging the cable left the laptop
panel black until it was re-docked. The journal named it: across three
undocks, two logged result=enable-timeout and one result=ok — a race, not
a logic error.
Two halves, both needed:
- `hyprctl keyword monitor eDP-1,preferred,auto,1` is accepted (exit 0)
while Hyprland is still tearing down the departing external, then
silently dropped. Re-issue it on every poll for 5s and keep `monitors`
listing the panel — not hyprctl's exit code — as the only proof.
- The watcher fired the undock once off the removal event and marked the
departure handled regardless (`|| true` + awaiting_lid_open=1). Since
known_outputs had already moved, the set-changed guard never reopened
and nothing retried, so one lost keyword cost the panel until re-dock.
The undock is now a queued invariant driven on the 1s tick, bounded at
6 attempts so a genuinely unenableable panel can't pin the inhibitor.
The VM harness cannot reach this race: QEMU's headless backend aborts
Hyprland if the last active output is deleted while the DRM output is
disabled, so the test must undock before removing DP-1 and never collides
the two. Noted there, and V3 queued as round 7 — unplug 5+ times, since
the old failure only hit ~2 in 3.
Verified: V2 — nix flake check --no-build; monitor-fallback.nix exit 0 in
57s; shellcheck clean. The fix itself is V3 pending.

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.
