Nomarchy/modules/nixos/greeter.nix

# Greeter — greetd/tuigreet, themed from the same theme-state.json that
# drives the desktop (nomarchy.system.stateFile; the Plymouth model:
# baked at SYSTEM rebuild, so it follows the theme as of the last
# sys-update, not the last instant apply).
#
# tuigreet draws on the virtual console with the 16 ANSI slots, so the
# theming is two-part:
#   1. console.colors — the VT palette becomes the theme's ansi[] hexes
#      (which also themes raw ttys and the LUKS passphrase prompt: the
#      same JSON reaches every pre-session surface).
#   2. --theme — tuigreet components on NAMED slots (its parser is
#      ratatui Color::from_str; names map to the standard indexes, e.g.
#      blue=4, gray=7, white=15, so the palette above hands them the
#      theme's colors). ANSI "black" stays dark even in light themes —
#      the greeter reads terminal-dark there, the same convention every
#      terminal applies to ANSI colors.
#
# Auto-login is in-flake state like the rest (settings.greeter.autoLogin,
# written by System › Auto-login via nomarchy-autologin below), NOT a baked
# line in system.nix: a hand-set `nomarchy.system.greeter.autoLogin` outranks
# the state default, which would leave the menu toggle flipping JSON that
# nothing reads. The installer therefore seeds the STATE on LUKS machines and
# the template keeps its example commented (templates/downstream/system.nix).
