Check / eval (push) Successful in 4m1s
The split line is consumption time: palette JSONs, previews and per-theme overrides are read at Nix eval and stay in-repo (~3 MB); wallpapers are runtime-only (swww via nomarchy-state-sync, never read at eval) and move to the pinned nomarchy-wallpapers non-flake input (git.bemagri.xyz/bernardo/Nomarchy-Wallpapers @ 803b48d, all 24 slugs). New overlay drv nomarchy-default-themes merges the two: repo themes copied, <slug>/backgrounds symlinked from the input, build FAILS if any theme JSON lacks non-empty backgrounds — the drift guard for the two-repo dance. nomarchy-state-sync's wrapper now points straight at the merged store path (no in-package copy): the package drops from ~94 MB to 32.6 KiB and the wallpapers source appears exactly once in any system closure, ISO included — offline promise intact. Downstream custom wallpapers still win ($NOMARCHY_PATH/themes is checked first), and an explicit state.json wallpaper path still works. checks re-pointed at the merged tree (theme-wholeswap, state-sync-validate, auto-theme); theme-contrast and airplane stay on ./themes (JSON/text only). import-palettes.py + README updated; ROADMAP § Faster switches marked shipped; LATER now carries only the pre-built-variants follow-on. Also files #151 (v1 launch plan, [human]) with measured history numbers: the 107 MiB pack is 94 MB wallpaper blobs; all 848 text commits pack to ~15-20 MiB — recommendation recorded to filter-repo at the GitHub move, not fresh-start. Verification: V2 — nix flake check --no-build green; theme-wholeswap, state-sync-validate, auto-theme VM check, downstream-template-home all green; wallpapers store path exactly once in the state-sync closure; `list` works from a scratch state dir. V3 queued: live wallpaper render + bg-next + custom-override precedence after next pull (HARDWARE-QUEUE). Lock gained exactly the one input node. Implementation by a Sonnet subagent; design and review on Fable. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <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.
