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.

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

Follows the ChatGPT flow: the Install > AI entry runs
omarchy-install-ai-claude in a floating terminal, which installs the
claude-desktop package (Anthropic's Linux desktop beta, repacked from
their Debian repo in omarchy-pkgs) and opens the app. Remove > AI
drops the package along with ~/.config/Claude and ~/.cache/Claude,
the Electron directories the desktop app owns, while keeping
~/.claude, ~/.claude.json, and ~/.cache/claude-cli-nodejs: those
belong to the Claude Code CLI, which ships in its own package and
survives this removal, just as the ChatGPT remover keeps the Codex
CLI.
The menu mark is a new U+E90E glyph in the Omarchy icon font, from
Simple Icons' Claude mark, so it reaches desktops through the next
omarchy-settings release.

Hiding the top bar and removing the window gaps are the two things you
do to give the screen entirely to your windows, and doing both took two
hands and two hotkeys. `omarchy toggle fullscreen desktop` does them
together.
It only leaves full screen when both halves are in it, so hitting the
hotkey with just the bar hidden (or just the gaps gone) pulls the other
half into line instead of flipping the one you already set.

* Add Muse Code as a default coding agent
Meta ships Muse Code only as a binary, so it installs from the AUR
(muse-code-bin) instead of mise, and a fresh install runs the muse login
browser flow in the install terminal before the agent opens.

* Add Cursor CLI as a coding agent choice
* Launch Cursor CLI through its agent subcommand with --trust
Cursor CLI still dispatches a one-word prompt that names one of its
subcommands (update, login, help) even after a bare --, so name the agent
subcommand outright and pass the prompt behind -- there, where it also
keeps a prompt starting with a dash from being read as an option. --yolo
only auto-allows commands; the workspace trust dialog is skipped only by
--trust, and a launcher that must not stop to ask needs both.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Leave an official Cursor CLI install alone
Cursor's own installer symlinks ~/.local/bin/cursor-agent, the same path the
mise wrapper takes. The migration now installs the wrapper only when no
cursor-agent command exists, and Remove Preinstalls deletes the path only
when it holds the wrapper omarchy-mise-install wrote, the way the Hermes
wrapper is handled. Selecting the agent treats an executable at that path
other than the wrapper as the user's own install and skips mise, since the
mise shims precede ~/.local/bin on PATH and a mise copy would only shadow
it. The wrapper resolves through mise's registry, which lists cursor-agent
from 2026.8.15 on.
The tests write a real cursor-agent stub before Remove Preinstalls runs,
cover the preinstall opt-out for the new migration, and check that a
symlinked official install survives removal and selection alike while a
dead file at the same path still installs.

* Give Cursor its brand mark and one name in the menu
Add Cursor's mark to the Omarchy icon font as U+E90D and point the agent
entry and both editor entries at it, so one brand is drawn one way across
the menu. Label the agent entry "Cursor CLI", the name the command and the
manual already use, and spell it the same in the migration and the tests.
Append the manual row after the others at the standard width.

* Keep an official Cursor CLI install through a user re-provision
User setup writes every mise wrapper unconditionally, which is fine on a
fresh install but replaces the symlink Cursor's own installer leaves at the
same path when omarchy-provision-user runs again with --force. Guard that
one line the way the migration does.

* Add native video wallpaper support
* Pause video wallpapers while a fullscreen app is focused
* Sample one frame when a video background sets the bar text colour
A video wallpaper made the transparent bar's colour sampling decode the entire file. ImageMagick's video delegate runs ffmpeg with no frame limit, so a twenty-second 1080p background took 11.3s of CPU where one frame takes 0.14s, and it did that on every theme change.
The result was unusable anyway: a multi-frame input emits one value per frame, which the single-value match then rejected, so transparent bars silently fell back to the plain text colour on every video wallpaper. Selecting frame zero fixes the cost and the colour together, and fixes animated GIFs, which had the same bug.
Co-Authored-By: Codex XHigh <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Load wallpaper video lazily, and without an audio output
Three costs the still-image path should never have paid.
BackgroundMedia imported QtMultimedia at file scope and was instantiated on every output, so the module and its audio dependency closure mapped into every shell process whether or not a video was ever shown — measured at +2.72 MiB RSS. Moving the element into its own file behind a Loader that takes a URL defers the whole import: an inactive loader maps none of it, an active one maps all 25 libraries. An inline Component cannot defer that, because the type has to resolve when the file compiles.
Qt's Video convenience type always builds an AudioOutput, and `muted` only aliases that sink's volume, so every monitor decoded an audio stream it would never play and opened an audio client for it. A bare MediaPlayer with no audio output spawns no QFFmpeg::AudioR, QAudioContext or PWDevMon thread, and plays files with no audio track just the same.
The shared image also turned mipmapping on, which the desktop background never had. A full mip chain is about a third more texture memory — 10.6 MiB extra at 4K, per output — for a wallpaper drawn at its own size.
Co-Authored-By: Codex XHigh <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Stop wallpaper playback while the session is locked or screensaved
Playback stopped only for a focused fullscreen window. Locking the session did not stop it, and the lock screen starts a player of its own, so an N-monitor desktop reached 2N decode pipelines the moment it locked — and stayed there, because a display blanked for idle stops being presented but does not stop Qt's FFmpeg engine, which drives its own clock. A laptop locked with the lid shut decoded video until the battery ran out.
The lock and idle services already know both states, so the background service takes the shell reference the loader offers it and reads them. Looking a service up by id needs the registry to be reactive, or a background that loads before the lock service would bind to null and stay there.
Co-Authored-By: Codex XHigh <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Fan out video thumbnails narrower than single-threaded image jobs
The generator fans out one job per core, which was bounded because VIPS_CONCURRENCY=1 made each of them single-threaded. ffmpegthumbnailer leaves FFmpeg's automatic decoder threading on, so a folder of uncached videos put a codec thread pool on every core at once. Queueing video work separately keeps the still-image path at full width and gives the video path a quarter of it.
* Recognize a named video file as a theme preview
The backgrounds fallback beside it already picks videos, so a theme shipping preview.mp4 was the one case that still went unseen.
* Document video backgrounds in the manual
The manual described backgrounds as images only. Worth saying plainly that a video wallpaper costs far more power than a still one and that each monitor decodes its own copy, since neither is visible from the picker.
* Stop the lock screen's own playback once the displays go dark
Pausing the desktop wallpaper on lock only moved the cost. The lock screen builds a player per monitor of its own, so locking an N-monitor session went from N decoders to N rather than to none — and the lock service blanks the displays five seconds later without touching them, which is where a lock spends nearly all of its time. A laptop locked and shut still decoded video into a dark panel.
The service already owns both transitions, so it records whether the displays are dark and the lock view stops playback while they are. The manual said playback stops while the screen is locked, which was the same overstatement; it now says once a locked screen has gone dark.

* Keep videos out of the lazy thumbnail path
A lazy row stands in with the media file itself until its thumbnail exists, and the picker draws that with an Image — which shows a picture and shows nothing for a video, with no reload once the real thumbnail lands. So the first open after discovering an uncached video showed a blank tile.
The same branch also spawns one generator per file immediately, before either queue is reached, and the theme switcher always asks for lazy thumbnails. That put the narrower video fan out on the one path that never used it: forty uncached previews meant forty ffmpegthumbnailer processes. Sending videos to the queue instead fixes the blank tile and puts them back under the cap.
Co-Authored-By: Codex XHigh <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Rebuild the theme preview cache after teaching it about video
Preview discovery changed what it recognizes, but its cache keys on theme directory mtimes alone. A theme that already shipped a video preview would keep whatever the old rules cached until something happened to touch the directory. Bumping the version rebuilds it once.
Co-Authored-By: Codex XHigh <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Drop an activeAudioTrack setting that never took effect
Qt's FFmpeg backend ignores setActiveTrack while no source is open, and the literal binding is not reapplied once the media loads and the tracks become known, so the line did nothing. What actually keeps the audio decoder and its client from ever being built is the absent audio output, which a file carrying an audio track confirms on its own: no QFFmpeg::AudioR, QAudioContext or PWDevMon thread appears without it.
Co-Authored-By: Codex XHigh <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Give up the blank state when a display comes back
The lock screen stops its wallpaper while the displays are dark, but it was tracking the blanking it asked for rather than the panels themselves. Opening a docked lid turns the internal panel back on without going through runWake, and so does a resume, which left a visible lock wallpaper frozen on one frame until the next keypress. A frozen wallpaper someone is looking at is worse than the decoding it saves, so a screen change gives the state up.
Co-Authored-By: Codex XHigh <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Time bound the video thumbnail generator
Routing videos through the queue means they are generated before the picker opens rather than behind it, which turned an unreadable or stalled file into a picker that never opens. ffmpegthumbnailer had no bound of its own and the drain waits for every job. A generator that gives up is already handled: the run reports failure, the partial file is removed, and the row drops out of the list.
Co-Authored-By: Codex XHigh <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Pause only the output a fullscreen window covers
The fullscreen test was global, so a game on one monitor stopped the wallpaper on every other one — including the ones still in plain view. That is the failure the lock work was careful to avoid, and it made the manual's claim that playback stops when nothing can see it untrue for the commonest multi-monitor case. A lock or a screensaver does cover every output, so those stay a single decision; fullscreen is now matched against the focused monitor, the way the bar already routes by output.
Co-Authored-By: Codex XHigh <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Kill a video thumbnail generator that ignores the timeout
Plain timeout sends TERM and then waits for a process that may never take it, which leaves the bound it was added for unenforced on exactly the stuck files it was meant to catch.

* Remember a video the thumbnail converter rejected
A permanently unreadable video cost ten seconds of generator time on every
picker open before its row dropped, because nothing recorded the failure.
Both the menu image generator and the direct picker scan now leave a marker
beside the missing thumbnail, keyed like the thumbnail on the file's size
and mtime, so a repaired file starts clean. A timeout is left to retry, as
it may only have been a busy machine.

* Follow the panels' real DPMS state under a locked video wallpaper
The lock screen stopped video playback when it asked for the displays to
blank, and resumed on input, but never checked what the panels did. A blank
that failed left a lit panel on one frozen frame, and a resume that turned
the same outputs back on played nothing until the next keypress.
Quickshell exposes no DPMS signal, so while a video is the locked wallpaper
the lock polls hyprctl and decides per surface from the answer. A wake or
blank request drops the last answer so its optimistic state applies until
the next poll confirms it.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Pause a video wallpaper for the fullscreen window that covers it
The fullscreen check read the globally active window and the focused
monitor, so it only knew about the window that had focus. A fullscreen
window left on one monitor while focus moved to another resumed the
wallpaper decoding behind it, and with fullscreen windows on two outputs
only the focused one paused.
Each output's visible workspace reports whether a fullscreen window covers
it, and Quickshell flips that on the compositor's fullscreen event, so each
panel now decides from its own monitor's active workspace instead.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Reopen a video wallpaper a theme switch replaced behind its path
Two themes that both ship backgrounds/wallpaper.mp4 leave the current
background at the same path after a switch, so the displayed path never
changed and the running player kept decoding the old file from its open
descriptor. Stills go through the snapshot transition and survive this;
a video switch is instant and did not.
A forced switch onto the path already on show now bumps a reload counter,
and BackgroundMedia rebuilds the video player for it. A cache-busting query
is not an option there, since FFmpeg reads it as part of the filename.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Keep picker rows uncached while a rejected video is left out
Skipping a video with a failure marker let the picker cache its rows
without it, and cached rows are trusted on the directory's mtime alone.
A file repaired in place never touches that, so the marker's fresh key
was never consulted and the video stayed missing.
The generator now hands the marker back to the row loop, which drops the
row and leaves the rows uncached, so each open re-stats the file and a
repaired one is converted again.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Hand each background loader only its own kind of file
BackgroundMedia fed one URL to both the still loader and the video player.
On a switch from image to video the Image was handed the video's URL in
the moment before its loader unloaded, so Qt tried to decode the mp4 as a
picture and logged an unsupported format on every such switch; the reverse
handed the player a still to demux.
The still URL is now empty whenever the path is a video and the video URL
empty whenever it is a still, so a switch changes only the loader that
stays.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Stop a video wallpaper before tearing its player down
Switching from a video to a still destroys the BackgroundVideo item while
its player is mid-read, which FFmpeg reports as a failed open in the shell
journal on every such switch. Stopping the player on destruction lets the
demuxer wind down first, and the switch is quiet.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Play a video wallpaper's sound track from the first monitor
Video wallpapers were always silent: the player was built without an
audio output, since a muted output still decodes the track and opens an
audio client on every monitor. A video with music should be able to play
it.
The player now builds its AudioOutput only once the media reports a sound
track, so a silent file still opens no audio client, and only the first
screen's panel opts in, so a multi-monitor desktop does not layer copies of
the track. The output is muted while a paused player primes its first
frame, and the lock screen stays silent.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Keep a departing video player off the still's file
The switch away from a video still logged a cancelled open, and stopping
the player on destruction only hid it: stopping reports the media as
loaded, which the loaded handler answered by playing again. The real cause
was one evaluation pass. Both URLs derived from the `video` flag, which is
itself bound to the path, and QML updates the two in no fixed order, so
the video URL could evaluate against the stale flag and hand the player
the still for a moment. Its destructor then cancelled that open.
Each URL now tests the path directly, the source binding only applies
while the path is a video and restores nothing when it stops, and the
destruction stop goes away with the hazard it introduced.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Pin the audio wiring in the test and name the output in the manual
The audio assertion passed with the BackgroundMedia forwarding binding
removed, which would have left every wallpaper silent, and did not pin the
silent default or the first-screen selection. It covers all three now.
The manual said the sound track plays "from your first monitor", which
reads as routing to that monitor's audio device. It is the first monitor's
wallpaper that plays, through the default output.

Hermes Desktop installed under Install > AI kept its own palette while every other agent app retinted with the theme. Hermes' skin is its one theme unit for the desktop app, the TUI and the CLI, and its gateway watches the active skin file and broadcasts changes to every surface, so Omarchy publishes a skin named omarchy from a template on every theme switch and nothing Omarchy-specific goes upstream.
Activation goes through hermes config set, which writes the active profile's config and touches the skin so a running gateway repaints at once, and it only replaces Hermes' default skin so a choice made in Hermes stays. A theme switch runs that activation too when the desktop package is present and Hermes is still on its default, so a hand-over the installer missed is finished by the next switch; once the config names the skin a switch never starts Hermes. The desktop adopts a skin from a change broadcast rather than from the config it finds at connect time, and its first launch builds the runtime over minutes, so the installer starts --wait as a transient user unit that outlives the install terminal, activates once the runtime marker appears, republishes after the gateway is up, and reports to the journal. A migration hands the skin to existing Hermes Desktop installs through --activate, which also renders the skin for a theme applied before the template existed.
The generated file is validated before it is published, because Hermes parses it as YAML: only the name, a plain description and #rrggbb colours pass, so an unresolved palette key or a cloned theme's own hermes.yaml leaves the previous skin in place.

OpenClaw's desktop experience on Linux is its Control UI, served by the
gateway the openclaw package runs, so the Install > AI entry installs
the package and a web app launcher that routes through the new
omarchy-launch-openclaw: first launch hands off to OpenClaw's own
onboarding wizard, later launches start the gateway when needed and open
the dashboard's single-use browser handoff URL as an app window.
Remove > AI tears the gateway service down through OpenClaw's own
gateway uninstall (falling back to systemctl by hand), aborts rather
than dropping the package under a gateway that will not stop, and keeps
the user's agent in ~/.openclaw.
OpenClaw also joins Setup > Defaults > Agent through the same
agent_installer seam Hermes carries: its CLI is the pacman package
rather than a mise tool, so omarchy-install-openclaw-cli answers
--check/--now with pacman, and omarchy-agent runs `openclaw chat`,
seeding prompts through --message.
The menu mark is a new U+E90C glyph traced from the package's lobster
favicon; E90B stays free for the Perplexity mark still in flight on its
own branch.
The launcher recovers the gateway through `openclaw gateway install --force`
(unit not enabled: missing, or an install that died after writing it) or
`openclaw gateway start` (enabled but stopped), never `openclaw dashboard
--yes`: as of OpenClaw 2026.9.1 that defers to "the owning supervisor" in
both cases, and once the gateway is up it copies a one-time browser pairing
URL into the clipboard. The dashboard probe is bounded so an app-grid launch
cannot hang without a terminal to interrupt it. Removal treats only
systemd's own "inactive"/"failed" as a stopped gateway, so an unreachable
user manager aborts instead of dropping the package under a live process.
All of it verified against a real 2026.9.1 install.
Removal also takes down the node-host unit if OpenClaw ever installed one, and
asks (default no, only on a terminal) whether ~/.openclaw should go too, with
its size: the chats and credentials live there next to hundreds of megabytes
of plugin runtimes and cache OpenClaw downloads for itself.
Onboarding goes through omarchy-openclaw-onboard rather than bare `openclaw
onboard`: as of 2026.9.1 the bare command is the guided flow, which ends by
running a foreground gateway and handing off to a browser tab without
returning, so the install script never reached the app launch and no service
was installed. The helper runs the classic wizard (--flow quickstart
--install-daemon --skip-ui) as a background job that keeps the terminal as its
stdin, so its prompts render and take input as upstream draws them, and stops
it once the gateway answers: upstream leaves the wizard running after its
outro (only the TUI branch exits, and the model sign-in holds a socket open).
Every quickstart prompt precedes the service install, so that point is safe.
A gateway that never comes up after this run applies setup ends the wait as a
failure instead
of hanging, an already-running OpenClaw is left alone rather than mistaken for
this run's success, a gateway answering on the port is only this run's once its
process is the unit's own MainPID (an orphan from an
earlier run) is not mistaken for the service this run installs, and a signal at
the helper takes the wizard down with it.
Remove stale passwordless sudo grants during boot and revoke a live grant immediately if its transient expiry timer cannot be created. Exercise both failure paths and the shipped tmpfiles rule against a disposable root.

The scratchpad spanned the whole screen whatever was on it, which reads as a band rather than a console when it holds the single agent it is usually opened for. It now sizes to a centered panel twice as wide as it is tall, and hands the full width back as soon as a second app is on the scratchpad: two windows splitting a half-width column is worse than the band this replaced.
The panel is still drawn with workspace gaps rather than a window rule, because Hyprland resolves a rule's size once as the window maps and the console has to survive a rescale. It is always flush with the top and always centered, so two numbers describe it, and the memo that suppresses no-op rewrites compares those rather than four edges.
The window count is read on window.open and window.destroy, the two events that run after the workspace's count has settled; window.close and window.move_to_workspace both still count the window on its way out, so refitting from either reads one too many and strands the console at full width. The count is only chased while the console is on screen, since a hidden one is refitted on its way in by workspace.special_active, and every window opened anywhere on the desktop would otherwise rewrite the rule.
Monitor width and height are the panel's own pixels, so an output turned on its side still reports them the way the panel is built rather than the way it hangs. The odd transforms are the quarter turns and those swap the work area: without that a rotated 1920x1080 sized its console from 1920x1080 instead of 1080x1920 and left a 214x1367 sliver.

Catches the branch up on 94 commits so what lands here is reviewed against
current quattro, and so #8611 contributes its own five files rather than
dragging a partial catch-up in behind it.
Hermes was missing from the provision-user symlink list that already
covers Claude, Codex, Pi, Antigravity, and ~/.agents. Add ~/.hermes/skills
plus existing ~/.hermes/profiles/*/skills. Migration for current installs.
cups-browsed is the daemon that watches the network and creates print queues by itself. Hardening it took a root daemon with a predictable cache down to a confined service account, but a daemon that turns anything advertising itself on the network into a print queue is a lot of exposure for a convenience, so it comes out of the default install while that is reworked. Only the discovery half: CUPS itself stays and printing keeps working, with each printer added by hand in Print Settings.
The migration disables the unit before removing the package because that is the only order that works: pacman deletes the unit file but not the enable symlink, and once the unit is gone systemd can no longer resolve it by name to clean that up.
It then removes the queues discovery generated. cups-browsed keeps those when it stops, since KeepGeneratedQueuesOnShutdown defaults to Yes, and they route through its own implicitclass backend, which goes with the package, so they cannot print again. Idle ones go. A queue with jobs on it is left alone and named: implicitclass only needs cups-browsed to choose a destination, so a job already past that point finishes on its own, and deleting the queue would abort it. One printer's job does not hold up the removal. A printer added by hand has an ipp:// or usb:// device and is left where it is.
A queue whose jobs cannot be asked about is left alone rather than assumed idle, including one named so that lpstat would misread it -- "all" is its word for every destination, and a leading dash or a comma reads as another option or a list.
Where CUPS does not answer at all, or a queue will not delete, discovery is still stopped but the package stays and no marker is written. omarchy-migrate records a migration for the user as soon as it exits zero, so that is where the machine stays until someone removes the package by hand, and the message says so rather than implying a retry.
The queue list is read under LC_ALL=C because lpstat translates "device for", and captured rather than piped, so a cupsd it cannot reach is reported instead of reading like a machine with nothing to clean up.
It removes with plain pacman -R rather than omarchy-pkg-drop, which passes -n and would discard /etc/cups/cups-browsed.conf instead of keeping it as a .pacsave. A removal meant to be temporary should not delete the machine's copy of its own configuration. Without -s either, so it only ever removes the package it names: sweeping newly unneeded dependencies is nothing today, but it is not a promise a rolling dependency graph can keep.
Queue names come off the network, since cups-browsed names its queues after what the printer advertised. CUPS allows every printable character but space, tab, / and #, and lpstat and lpadmin take a destination as an option value, so a name with a leading dash or a comma is reported rather than passed to them and guessed at.
Migration state is per user, so a machine-wide marker records the one removal. Without it, an account whose first migration run came after someone deliberately reinstalled discovery would quietly take it back out again.
The install-time override for cups-browsed.conf now waits for cups-browsed rather than for CUPS. Guarding it on a file CUPS still ships would write a configuration file for a package nothing installed, and pacman would later land the package's own copy beside it as a .pacnew.
The hardened configuration stays in the tree. omarchy-settings still ships the cups-browsed.conf override, the sysusers account and the service drop-in, so they are what discovery returns onto.

The agent table lists every CLI Omarchy pre-wires, and Hermes was missing from
it. Hermes Desktop earns a paragraph of its own under the graphical apps,
because the one-Hermes-per-machine arrangement is something a user meets rather
than reads about: the app installs its own runtime on first launch, the terminal
command and the default agent then use that same one, and removing the app takes
the runtime but keeps their chats, memories and skills.

The mute was reachable only as `omarchy-toggle crash-ignore/<program>`, which asks whoever runs it to know the flag layout, to reduce a binary's path to the name the watcher keys on, and to have read the rule that a name climbing out of that directory writes an unrelated toggle. All of that was carried in the skill's prose, which is the wrong place for a rule that has to hold: prose is advice, and the thing being advised about is a name the crashed program chose.
So it is a command now. `omarchy crash mute hyprland` silences that program, `off` lifts it, `toggle` flips it, and no argument lists what is muted. It takes the binary's path as readily as the name and reduces it the way the watcher does, so the `Executable:` line from `coredumpctl` can be handed straight to it; it refuses what is not one component of a name, so it cannot be talked into writing outside its own directory whatever it is given; and it re-reads the flag afterwards and reports what is now true rather than what was asked for. The listing counts only regular files, because that is all the watcher honours -- anything else in there would read as muted while the crashes kept arriving. A leading `--` is consumed so a program named `-h`, which the router would otherwise answer with its own help, can still be muted.
The watcher gained an unrelated fix that this uncovered. Its fields are read with `IFS=$'\t'`, and tab is IFS whitespace, so an empty field collapsed into the next delimiter and shifted every field after it along one: a crash whose comm was empty had a path read as its pid and was discarded as somebody else's. A process can set its comm to nothing, so that was reachable. Empty fields now arrive as a dash like missing ones, and a dash joins the empty and dot cases that fall back to `unknown`.
