Hermes is only ever installed through the app. Choosing it as the default agent used to stand aside for a hermes that worked but came from somewhere else, and to refuse one that predated seeded sessions; both left the machine on a Hermes that was not the app's, which is the one Omarchy prepares for in-app updates and hands the theme to. Now --check answers only for the app's own Hermes, and --now installs the app whatever answered to hermes before, saving the previous command aside as it always did for the app path. The desktop installer no longer adds the package itself, since the shared install does.

Whether the environment mise built is gone was read by searching the global listing for the prefix `"pipx:hermes-agent`, so a tool that merely starts the same way, `pipx:hermes-agent-tools` say, read as the retired one still requested. Removing the real one changed nothing, the recheck failed again, and the migration stayed pending on every update. The key is matched whole now, with or without its options.

The wait before clearing a stale shallow.lock looked for a git whose command line began with `git`, so one started as `/usr/bin/git`, which is what a caller that resolved it with `which` runs, was never seen: its lock, once a minute old, would have been cleared under it and a second fetch started against the same shallow file. The path is allowed only ahead of the name, at the start of the command line, so a process that merely names git in an argument, an editor opened on /usr/bin/git from inside the runtime say, is not waited for.

Upstream's installer runs `npx playwright install chromium` for the browser tools, and npx asks before fetching a package it does not have. Over ssh, with no terminal, it goes ahead; in the floating terminal the menu opens for choosing Hermes it printed "Ok to proceed? (y)" and waited, so an install a user had every reason to walk away from sat there until someone typed y. The mise-built Hermes this replaces never asked anything. `--skip-setup` already answers the wizard the same way, and the app's own bootstrap never had a terminal to ask in.

Choosing Hermes as the default agent built it through mise: a pipx environment with no checkout, so `hermes update` had nothing to move, and the only Hermes that could update itself was the one Hermes Desktop set up. Both paths now run the same setup. omarchy-install-hermes-cli installs the hermes-desktop package and runs upstream's installer from it, pinned to the packaged release and started on main, exactly as Install > AI did; omarchy-install-ai-hermes is that plus opening the app. The terminal, the default agent and the app share one runtime, and it updates itself.
--check answers whether --now has anything left to do, not merely whether a hermes runs: choosing Hermes from the menu asks first and opens a terminal only on a no, so a yes has to mean no minutes-long step would run where nobody can see it. With the app installed that means the runtime's own command, its completion marker and the seeded packaged app; a finished runtime whose command is gone, somebody else's, or its own but unable to run gets it back from upstream's path stage without bootstrapping again. Either way the command has to be the one PATH finds, because omarchy-agent runs bare `hermes` and Omarchy puts mise's shims ahead of ~/.local/bin; a command in the way is named rather than installed over. The modes are named outright because the app's launcher used to call this command with no arguments to reconcile a mise copy; a default of --now would turn every launch into an install. --check still refuses to run the retired wrapper, since running it built Hermes through mise, and a machine whose migration is pending can still have it on PATH.
Provisioning no longer writes the wrapper, Remove Preinstalls no longer looks for it, and the wrapper, the environment it built and what proves them Omarchy's are known to the installer alone: --retire-mise is the migration's whole job, and --now runs the same removal once the runtime installer has saved the wrapper aside, so a user who chose Hermes before their migration ran is not left with mise's shim answering `hermes`. Only the wrapper proves the environment is Omarchy's, at its path or in that saved copy, so the environment goes first and the wrapper last, judged by mise neither having it installed nor still requesting it; a removal that leaves either behind, or a listing that cannot be read, mise missing included, stops with the commands to finish by hand and leaves the migration pending. The migration that once installed the wrapper is kept as a no-op for late updaters, and one whose default agent was Hermes is told to choose it again.

Restarting immediately after the plugin rescan races Quickshell IPC handler creation and can crash the exiting shell. The normal update flow already restarts after migrations. Let this migration finish through live enablement and placement without adding timing workarounds.
Link the package into the existing plugin directory and let bar put handle enablement, clock-relative placement, and the missing-clock fallback. Preserve user checkouts and existing placements, and seed the same link for new users. This removes the Atreyu packaged-discovery prerequisite and the checkout cleanup and JSON rewrite machinery.
The shell drops its own player: BackgroundMedia is image-only, and the
lock loads Owe.LockFeedSurface through a Loader, so a system without the
module shows no lock video instead of losing the whole lock screen. The
feed pauses per output when the panel blanks or power saver turns on.
The lock view keeps its still effect path and darkens the feed for
legibility. QtMultimedia and the shell video pause policy are gone, and
the base package list requires owe and owe-lockfeed instead.
The desktop background no longer plays videos. OWE owns video
backgrounds, and the shell layer stays empty behind one. The shell keeps
stills, which OWE hands back to it.
Remove the desktop video pause plumbing that only existed to stop an
unseen player: the lock, idle, and battery service lookups, the
per-output fullscreen check, the first-screen audio opt-in, and the audio
output in BackgroundVideo. The lock screen keeps its own silent playback.
Update the background tests, the manual, and the package note.
The background plugin now watches for the OWE daemon socket. While OWE is
running, the desktop yields video playback to it and the shell keeps
stills. The lock screen keeps its own playback.
This lets Omarchy cooperate with OWE without OWE editing shell.json, so
the engine can ship as a package.
Add a package-list note that owe-wallpaper-engine must be added once it is
packaged.
Retire only checkouts whose refs and reflogs are reachable from recorded origin history, and preserve ignored files. Leave configs without an explicit supported bar layout untouched so migration does not replace the shell fallback with an almost empty bar.

Elsewhen (omacom.elsewhen) arrives as the elsewhen package under
/usr/share/omarchy/plugins, the packaged root the shell scans between its
bundled plugins and the user's. It opens the right section of the default
bar, just before the tray, and a migration installs the package, writes the
widget into a customized shell.json in the same spot, and retires a pristine
pre-package clone of the upstream repo that the package now shadows.

The repo moved to the omacom org. GitHub redirects the old URLs, but
`omarchy channel set dev` was still cloning from basecamp/omarchy, which
left every dev checkout with a stale origin remote that confuses gh
(pr create fails with "No commits between omacom:quattro and
basecamp:<branch>"). Update the clone URL, the quattro upgrade tarball,
the update-confirm release link, the systemd Documentation link, and
the manual.
