Bernardo Magri aed41793f8 feat(keyboard): per-device layout memory in-flake (no ~/.local/state)
Phase 2 of the in-flake-state philosophy, mirroring night-light: the
nomarchy-keyboard-watch daemon now remembers per-device layouts in the
git-tracked state file (settings.keyboard.devices) instead of
~/.local/state/nomarchy/keyboard-layouts.

- Reads the LIVE working-tree map (theme-sync get → jq) so a pick this
  session is honoured at once; writes instantly with --no-switch (no
  rebuild). Writes the whole map back at the dot-free parent path
  (read-modify-write) so a device name with a dot can't corrupt the
  tool's dotted set-path (Hyprland only sanitises spaces→-).
- Graduation: nomarchy.keyboard.devices now mkDefault-merges entries
  from settings.keyboard.devices, so each remembered device becomes a
  generated Hyprland device{} block on the next rebuild (reproducible,
  hotplug-applied). A hand-written keyboard.devices.<name> still wins;
  once baked, the watcher's is_declared check makes it step back.
- theme.nix seeds settings.keyboard.devices = {} (sparse state still
  evaluates); options/template descriptions updated; ROADMAP marked done.

Eval-verified (graduation + mkDefault precedence) and the set/get
writer round-trips. Still needs the on-hardware hotplug re-verify (the
picker path isn't testable in CI).

My Nomarchy machine

  1. Overwrite the placeholder hardware config with the real one: nixos-generate-config --show-hardware-config > hardware-configuration.nix
  2. Set flake.nix up once (Nomarchy repo URL, your username, optionally a hardwareProfile from https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-hardware — an unknown name fails the rebuild with suggestions). After that the flake is never touched again: your machine lives in system.nix (hostname, services — the login user is created from username automatically) and home.nix (your packages).
  3. git init && git add -A — flakes only see tracked files, including theme-state.json.
  4. System: sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#default
  5. Desktop: nix run home-manager -- switch --flake .#me (afterwards just home-manager switch --flake .#me — it's installed)
  6. Clone/symlink this directory to ~/.nomarchy (or export NOMARCHY_PATH) so nomarchy-theme-sync knows where the state lives.

Day-to-day:

nomarchy-theme-sync list             # 21 shipped presets
nomarchy-theme-sync apply gruvbox    # writes state + home-manager switch
nomarchy-theme-sync bg next          # cycle wallpapers (instant, no rebuild)

The system layer only needs nixos-rebuild when you change system.nix.
