feat(terminal): Kitty only — drop Ghostty (#95)
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.

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 V0V3 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 35 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

  1. Execute from BACKLOG only (NOW → NEXT; never PROPOSED without human triage).
  2. Orient with GOALS + CONVENTIONS + MEMORY + last journal + BACKLOG; when the task is product-shaped, also read the relevant VISION §.
  3. Record lasting design in ROADMAP ✓ when something ships that future humans should know; delete the BACKLOG line.
  4. v1 branch is human-only — never advance from an agent session.
