docs: #114 ships as document-only; record 2026-07-17 triage rulings
Live triage with Bernardo. #114 (greeter ignores per-device layouts):
ruled document-only — a kernel VT has exactly one keymap, so tuigreet
structurally cannot honour settings.keyboard.devices. README gets the
"Greeter keyboard layout" note after the home.nix options table,
RECOVERY.md §2 a one-line pointer for the password-rejected case,
ROADMAP's #145 cross-ref updated, BACKLOG entry deleted.

Also recorded: #120 stays deferred (cachix likely first step when
promoted); #134 decided — Nomarchy carries nixpkgs-unstable, unstable.*
via overlay, home-scope only — rewritten into NEXT; #143 upstream check
(rofi#2317 still open, no response) noted in the item.

Verification: V0 — docs and backlog only, prose reviewed in place.

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.
