321ccf7 claimed the 4s step-4 run was "docked, lid OPEN" and that it retired
the old "docked lid-open is untested" caveat. Both wrong, per Bernardo: the
lid was SHUT throughout. eDP-1 was lit inside a closed clamshell because a
reload had re-enabled it, and "lid open" was inferred from an output being
enabled — which is not evidence of a lid position. /proc/acpi/button/lid/*/
state is, and it was never checked; it reads `closed` with eDP-1 enabled and
dpms_on=true right now. Docked-lid-open stays untested (moot — the gate is
gone — but untested). The step-4 result itself stands: input woke it in 4s
with hypridle stopped, with two outputs enabled rather than one.
That correction exposes a real bug, filed as #148: `hyprctl reload` re-enables
every output (the #142 hammer the undock rescue relies on), but
nomarchy-display-watch only reacts to monitoradded/monitorremoved — a reload
emits neither, so nothing re-asserts the dock profile. Every HM activation
reloads Hyprland, so every rebuild while docked-clamshell lights the panel and
leaves it lit. Bernardo hit it twice in ten minutes today: once from
nomarchy-home, once from an agent's reload that silently undid the fix he had
just made by hand in the Display menu.

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.
