+# Region
+
+- `/etc/omarchy/region` holds `cn`; no file means Global. `omarchy-region` prints the region and switches it (`omarchy region cn|global`); the profile lives in `default/regions/cn/`, its contract in `docs/regions.md`, user-facing docs in `manual/52-china.md`.
+- `install/config/region.sh` is the one system leaf for both the ISO install (the `/etc/omarchy/region` marker the installer derives from the timezone) and the runtime switch (`OMARCHY_REGION`): the region file and the profile drop-ins it symlinks. Input methods are not part of a region: the installer's keyboard choice and `omarchy-setup-input` own them (`docs/input-methods.md`).
+- `omarchy-apply-pacman` renders pacman for every caller: the channel templates, the profile's `pacman/mirrorlist-<channel>.prepend` ahead of the mirrorlist, and its `pacman.conf.append`. Nothing in `omarchy update` or migrations may change the region or `/etc/locale.conf`.
+- Language is separate from region: `omarchy-language en|zh` (Setup > Language) owns `LANG` in `/etc/locale.conf`, the installer sets it from its first screen, and nothing keyed by region touches it.
+- China-only menu rows carry `"when":"[[ \"$(omarchy-region)\" == \"China\" ]]"` on every row, not only the submenu, because search checks each row's own guard.
+- Chinese menu labels live in `default/omarchy/omarchy-menu.zh-cn.jsonc`, merged when `LANG` starts with `zh_CN`; give a new menu row with translatable words a label there.
+- Shell text goes through `I18n.tr("English %1", arg)` from `qs.Commons`, with its Chinese in `shell/Commons/I18nZh.js` keyed by the English. Notifications and OSD messages are worded by their sender with `omarchy-text "English %1" "$arg"` (Python: `text()`, QML: `I18n.tr`), which reads the same table; the shell shows them as given, so user text is never translated. `test/shell.d/shell-i18n-test.sh` fails on a missing entry.

+# Regional defaults
+
+Regions customize bootstrap defaults independently of update channels and of the installer's language. Country identifiers are lowercase, officially assigned ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes. `global` is a reserved value for no country-specific additions. Only implemented profiles are accepted; currently `global` and `cn`.
+
+## Runtime configuration
+
+The ISO installer writes the region it derived to `/etc/omarchy/region` before target finalization. It is plain text, not executable configuration, owned by root and world-readable (`0644`), because refresh renders as the calling user. A missing file means `global`; an unsupported value is an error.
+
+`omarchy-apply-pacman <stable|rc|edge> [target-root]` restores the selected channel's two pacman templates, appends the region's `pacman.conf.append` to `pacman.conf`, and puts the region's `mirrorlist-<channel>.prepend` ahead of the channel's mirrorlist. Both files are generated before either live file is replaced. Existing files are backed up with `.bak`. Dev uses the edge pacman channel, as before.
+
+Both installation finalization and `omarchy-refresh-pacman` use this command. Explicit refreshes and channel changes restore regional defaults; ordinary updates do not enforce them. The existing `pre-refresh-pacman` user hook runs after regeneration and before the update, so users can maintain overrides there. Switching to the dev channel refuses a checkout that lacks this machine's region profile, because that checkout's own refresh would otherwise drop the regional repositories. Users can edit the files directly or set the region to `global` before a refresh to stop applying regional repository defaults. This does not uninstall packages or rewrite anything in existing home directories.
+
+Refresh renders both files as the calling user and gives root only the finished copies, so the sudo boundary stays command-scoped. That boundary does not defend against other code already running as the same user: such code could change the rendered files while refresh waits for the password, as it could alter that user's own environment in other ways.
+
+The China profile puts Omarchy's China replica of the channel's Arch mirror first (`stable-mirror.omarchy.cn`, `rc-mirror.omarchy.cn`, or `mirror.omarchy.cn` for edge and dev) and keeps the channel's `.org` mirror as the fallback. pacman tries servers in order and moves to the next one when a download fails, including a 404. After three failed downloads from one server, it skips that server for the rest of the transaction. It also takes the package databases from the first server that answers, without comparing them, so the China replicas must carry complete, current metadata. The profile also adds the ArchLinuxCN community repository from USTC's mirror, run by the University of Science and Technology of China. It does not change the `[omarchy]` package repository. ArchLinuxCN is rolling and built against current Arch, while stable and RC are snapshots, so its packages can need newer libraries than a stable machine has.
+
+## Profile layout
+
+Each profile lives in `default/regions/<code>/`:
+
+- `timezones`: the timezones that select this region, one per line, with blank lines and `#` comments allowed. List tzdata's backward-compatible names too, since the installer's timezone list includes them. A timezone may belong to at most one profile.
+- `packages`: additional target packages, in the same format. Every ISO carries every profile's packages in its offline repository; the installer installs them only on targets in that region. A package named `<name>-keyring` is the profile's trust anchor: the builder installs it through Arch's existing trust chain, and a regional target populates the `<name>` keyring.
+- `pacman/`: `pacman.conf.append`, added after the channel's `pacman.conf`, and one `mirrorlist-<channel>.prepend` per channel (`stable`, `rc`, `edge`), placed ahead of the channel's mirrorlist so the regional mirror is tried first.
+
+## ISO installer contract
+
+There is one ISO for every region. The companion `omarchy-iso` repository reads the profiles from the runtime it bundles, so a region and its repository defaults can never disagree.
+
+- **Build:** every profile's `packages` go into the offline repository, but not into the base package list. The builder adds each profile's community repository to its writable online config to download them; it does not change its Arch channel mirrors.
+- **Install:** the installer maps the timezone the user picked to a region through the `timezones` files; a timezone no profile lists means `global`. It shows the result on the summary screen. Unattended installs can set the region explicitly instead. For a regional install it installs the profile's packages from the offline repository and writes `/etc/omarchy/region`; the runtime finalizer then applies the fragments.
+- **Deferred installs** have no timezone until first boot, so they are `global` unless the unattended configuration sets a region.
+
+For China, the builder installs `archlinuxcn-keyring` using the existing Arch trust chain before downloading ArchLinuxCN packages. Signature or keyring failures abort the build; no unverified keyserver trust or online signature bypass is added. On a China target the installer installs the keyring from the offline repository, then initializes and populates it before the online repositories are enabled. Global targets never populate ArchLinuxCN's keys. The ISO's existing offline repository verification policy is unchanged.
+
+## Scope of the China profile
+
+The China profile provides repository defaults only. Language is a separate installer choice, not part of a region: a Chinese speaker outside China keeps global mirrors, and a China install in English still gets the regional ones.
+
+## Remaining release validation
+
+Unit tests cover region/channel independence, the timezone mapping, generated pacman contents, repeat application, and refresh ordering; refresh itself is exercised only inside the sudo-boundary sandbox. They do not establish live mirror availability, real package trust, or successful offline installation. Before distribution, build from matching local checkouts on an x86_64 builder and run the disposable-VM acceptance workflow in `agents/skills/acceptance-tests.md`.
+
+The acceptance run must install without network access in both directions: a non-China timezone must produce pacman files byte for byte identical to the channel templates, and `Asia/Shanghai` must produce the China profile, boot to a new user, and keep the regional mirrors, repository, marker, and keyring trust through `stable`, `rc`, and `edge` refreshes.

+# China
+
+Omarchy is built to work in mainland China without a VPN. Pick _China_ on the first screen of the installer, the region picker that comes before the keyboard layout, and the machine comes up ready: Chinese menus and system language, a Chinese input method, Chinese package mirrors, and the Chinese software people actually need.
+
+## What China sets up
+
+| Area | China | Global |
+|------|-------|--------|
+| Omarchy and Arch packages | `pkgs.omarchy.cn` and the `*-mirror.omarchy.cn` mirrors first, the `.org` servers behind them, then USTC; the ArchLinuxCN repository | `.org` servers only |
+| Language | `LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8`, Chinese menu labels | English |
+| Input method | Fcitx5 with [Rime Ice](https://github.com/iDvel/rime-ice) and the Wanxiang grammar model; `Ctrl + Space` toggles between Chinese and English | Fcitx5 compose only |
+| Developer mirrors | npm, PyPI and uv, Go, rustup and crates.io, RubyGems and Bundler, Maven | Upstream registries |
+| Software | _Install > China Apps_ and _Setup > Claude Code API_ | Hidden |
+
+Chinese text renders in the right Noto CJK variant everywhere: Simplified for Chinese, Traditional for Taiwan and Hong Kong, Japanese and Korean for those languages. That works in both regions.
+
+Every package mirror lists the `.cn` server first and the `.org` server second. If the `.cn` mirror is unreachable, or a package is missing there, pacman falls through to `.org`, which works for anyone with their own VPN, and then to the USTC Arch mirror. The ArchLinuxCN community repository is enabled too.
+
+## Input
+
+The installer sets up Rime Ice offline, from data bundled on the ISO, so Chinese input works the moment you log in. Rime is the active input method and `Ctrl + Space` switches to plain US keyboard input and back. The input method is installed by [rime-ice-installer](https://github.com/manateelazycat/rime-ice-installer); run `rime-ice-installer` again any time to adjust it.
+
+## Developer mirrors
+
+China machines point the common package managers at mirrors inside China. Environment variables in `/etc/environment.d/90-omarchy-china.conf` cover npm, PyPI and uv, Go, rustup, Bundler and Maven; they reach everything started from the desktop after your next login (not SSH or TTY shells), and they take precedence over npm, pip, uv and Go config files, so unset the variable in a shell to opt out. `/.cargo/config.toml` points crates.io at the mirror unless a project's `.cargo/config.toml` says otherwise, and `/etc/gemrc` sets the RubyGems source unless your `~/.gemrc` sets another. Omarchy never replaces one of those two files if it is a regular file you created. Toolchain downloads by mise, such as Node.js or Go themselves, still come from upstream.
+
+## China Apps
+
+_Install > China Apps_ installs WeChat, QQ, Feishu, DingTalk, Tencent Meeting and WPS Office from the AUR, and sets up Tencent Docs, Yuque and Shimo as web apps.
+
+## Claude Code with a Chinese model
+
+_Setup > Claude Code API_ points Claude Code at DeepSeek, Kimi Code, GLM, MiniMax or any Anthropic-compatible endpoint. Pick a provider, paste its API key and confirm the model. The answers land in the `env` block of `~/.claude/settings.json`. Kimi Code (`kimi`) and Dim Agent (`dim`) are preinstalled in every region; see [AI](17-ai.md).
+
+## Switching regions
+
+_Setup > Region_ switches an installed machine either way, or run `omarchy region cn` or `omarchy region global` from a terminal. Switching to China first runs a full system update, so the input method installs against current packages, then installs the input method packages, records the region, moves the package mirrors to `.cn`, adds ArchLinuxCN and downloads Rime Ice. If the packages fail to install, the machine stays Global; if the Rime Ice download fails, China stays selected and running the switch again finishes it. The language and the developer mirrors follow at the next login, so the switch then offers to log out at once.
+
+Switching to Global moves packages back to the `.org` servers, the language back to English, and removes the developer mirrors, China Apps and the Claude Code API setup. It keeps the input method and the CJK fonts, so you can still type and read Chinese. `omarchy update` never changes the region or the language; only these switches do.
+
+A machine prepared for another owner keeps the region picked in the installer, and a factory reset returns a machine to the region it was installed with. Neither carries the input method's offline data, so pick _Setup > Region > China_ once the machine is online; that setup downloads Rime Ice from GitHub.

+# OmarchyCN task list
+
+Progress source of truth for the `omarchycn` branches of `omarchy`, `omarchy-iso` and `omarchy-pkgs`. Work top to bottom, one item at a time. Each item closes only after a codex review (GPT 6.1 Sol, xhigh, in a herdr split) passes; at most 5 reviews per item.
+
+## Decisions (confirmed with the owner, 2026-10-05)
+
+- Region is machine state in `/etc/omarchy/region` (`china`); absent means Global.
+- Arch and Omarchy repos follow the domain plan: every `*.omarchy.org` server gets a `*.omarchy.cn` twin listed first. `pkgs.omarchy.cn` is live; `stable-mirror`, `rc-mirror` and `mirror.omarchy.cn` do not resolve yet, so pacman falls through to `.org`.
+- China means a Chinese UI: `LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8` and Chinese menu labels. Global means `en_US.UTF-8`. `omarchy update` never touches the locale.
+- Input method: rime-ice-installer (omarchy-pkgs PR 265, not merged yet). The ISO bundles the package, the Rime Ice `full.zip` and the Wanxiang grammar model; the install finishes with Rime and US keyboard ready, Ctrl+Space toggles. The installer gets a local patch: `--asset-dir` and no sudo when its packages are present.
+- China to Global: switch sources and language, keep CJK fonts and the input method, remove the Claude Code third-party provider entry and the env it wrote, hide the China software entry. Dim and Kimi stay for every region.
+- Deferred provisioning and factory reset get the region's system setup but no offline input method (deferred).
+
+## Decisions (owner and maintainers, 2026-10-08)
+
+These replace the 2026-10-05 decisions where they disagree.
+
+- Region and language are separate. Region comes from the timezone the user picks (omarchy #13690, omarchy-iso #241); the installer adds no region screen. Language is the first installer screen.
+- The `.cn` pacman mirrors are #13690's `mirrorlist-<channel>.prepend` files. Our `servers.sed` twins and the USTC Arch fallback go; `[omarchy]` keeps only `pkgs.omarchy.org`, as in #13690.
+- Input methods come from dhh's #14433 and omarchy-iso #237. Rime, `rime-ice-installer` and its bundled assets go.
+- The language picker offers English and Simplified Chinese. Chinese reruns the installer in cage + foot with fonts unpacked from the offline repository's `noto-fonts-cjk`; the target gets `LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8`.
+- Setup > Region switches mirrors, developer mirrors, the China apps entry and the Claude Code API entry. Setup > Language switches `LANG` and the Chinese UI. Neither touches the other.
+
+## Shipping prerequisites
+
+- The region screen, Rime bundling and local `rime-ice-installer` build exist only on the `omarchycn` branches: a China-ready ISO is built by running `./bin/omarchy-iso-make --local-source ../omarchy ../omarchy-pkgs` from `omarchy-iso/` until they are merged and published.
+- omarchy-pkgs PR 265 (rime-ice-installer) must merge, with `omarchy-offline.patch` upstreamed to manateelazycat/rime-ice-installer, before non-local ISO builds can list it.
+- omarchy-iso PR 210 (stop passing `offline` to archinstall 4.5's `sanity_check`) is cherry-picked on `omarchy-iso/omarchycn`; the edge snapshot already ships archinstall 4.5.
+- A local-source ISO builds `omarchy-dev` and `omarchy-settings-dev` under the published version number, so the next edge release would replace them with builds that lack the China code. Until these branches ship upstream, the ISO pins the local builds with `IgnorePkg`, a `pre-refresh-pacman` hook and an ALPM hook that aborts any transaction replacing them (omarchy-iso README). Pinned machines get no Omarchy updates.
+- `stable-mirror.omarchy.cn`, `rc-mirror.omarchy.cn` and `mirror.omarchy.cn` must resolve for Arch packages to come from China; until then pacman falls through to `.org`.
+
+## Tasks
+
+- [x] T0 Branches and this list
+- [x] T1 China package sources (PRD 1): region state, `omarchy-region` reader, `default/region/china/pacman.sed`, applied by `omarchy-refresh-pacman` and `install/post-install/pacman.sh`; tests
+- [x] T2 Region choice in the installer (PRD 2): `omarchy_prompt_region` in `setup-form.sh`, ISO configurator screen, orchestrator passes `OMARCHY_REGION`, `install/config/region.sh` records it
+- [x] T3 Input method (PRD 3): rime-ice-installer patch and PKGBUILD in omarchy-pkgs, IME packages in `omarchy-other.packages`, install-time package add, user step runs the installer from bundled assets, ISO build bundles assets and the package
+- [x] T4 CJK fontconfig fix (PRD 4): rebuild PR 9693 on the current base
+- [x] T5 AI (PRD 5): Dim and Kimi Code for every region (rebuild PR 9694), Claude Code third-party provider setup shown only in China
+- [x] T6 Developer mirrors (PRD 6): npm, PyPI/uv, Go, rustup, crates.io, RubyGems, Maven via system drop-ins under `default/region/china/`
+- [x] T7 China software (PRD 7): Install menu entry shown only in China
+- [x] T8 Region switching and Chinese UI (PRD 8): `omarchy-region china|global`, Setup > Region, locale, Chinese menu overlay chosen by `LANG`
+- [x] T9 Logo (PRD 9): stock Omarchy logo everywhere
+- [x] T10 Docs: `AGENTS.md`, manual
+- [x] T11 Test ISO build (local source)
+- [x] T12 QEMU install and verification: China and Global installs, region switch, `omarchy update` keeps region and language
+- [x] T13 Acceptance checklist
+- [x] T14 Chinese installer (owner request, parity with the old OmarchyCN ISO): choosing China on the VT reruns the installer in cage + foot with CJK fonts and a US keyboard, falling back to the English VT; there the region screen is bilingual and Global returns to the VT; every later installer screen, the shared setup form and the install dashboard read in Chinese
+- [x] T15 Global to China fails on local-source installs (owner report): `rime-ice-installer` lives only in the ISO's offline mirror, so a Global install cannot fetch it later; local-source installs install every pinned local build, and `install/config/region.sh` installs the China packages before it writes any region state
+- [x] T16 A region switch offers to log out at once, since the language and the developer mirrors only reach a new session (owner request)
+- [x] T17 The desktop shell reads in Chinese under `zh_CN` (owner report): notifications, the bar panels (agents, network, display and the rest), the menu's search prompt — review cap reached: five codex rounds; the round-5 findings (user text translated at display, custom reminder list lines, reminder tooltips and errors) are fixed by wording every notification at its sender and verified by tests and in the China VM, without a sixth review
+- [x] T18 Merge the official region-profile PRs (omarchy #13690, #14399; omarchy-iso #206, #236) and align to them: region code `cn` in `/etc/omarchy/region`, China files under `default/regions/cn/`, pacman rendered by `omarchy-apply-pacman` (`.cn` twins first, USTC fallback, ArchLinuxCN with its keyring), offline timezone `Asia/Shanghai`; the ISO keeps the first-screen region choice and bundles the China profile, `--region cn` preselects China
+
+- [x] T19 Merge the reworked #13690 (timezone-derived region) and align: `mirrorlist-<channel>.prepend` and `timezones` replace `servers.sed`, `mirrorlist.append` and `timezone`; drop #14399's timezone preselection (closed upstream); `install/config/region.sh` reads `/etc/omarchy/region` instead of `OMARCHY_REGION`; drop the dead `china` rename migration
+- [x] T20 Merge #14433 (input methods) and remove Rime: packages, `install/user/region.sh`, the Rime steps in `install/config/region.sh` and `omarchy-region`
+- [x] T21 Split language from region: `omarchy-language en|zh` and Setup > Language own `LANG`; `omarchy-region` and `install/config/region.sh` stop touching the locale
+- [x] T22 omarchy-pkgs: revert the `rime-ice-installer` package
+- [x] T23 omarchy-iso: merge upstream `quattro` (#237) and #241; remove `--region`, `prepare-region.sh`, the region skel, the region preselected timezone, Rime bundling and its pin
+- [ ] T24 omarchy-iso: the language screen replaces the region screen; Chinese reruns in cage + foot with `noto-fonts-cjk` unpacked from the offline repository (no font packages added to the ISO); the CJK console lists only US-keymap keyboards and preselects Chinese (Simplified, Pinyin); the target gets `zh_CN.UTF-8` through `locale_config`; the harness takes `--language zh`
+- [ ] T25 Docs: `AGENTS.md`, `docs/regions.md`, `manual/52-china.md`, omarchy-iso README
+- [ ] T26 Build the local-source ISO and test in QEMU: Chinese + `Asia/Shanghai`, English + `Europe/Berlin`, runtime region and language switches
+- [ ] T27 Acceptance checklist for T19–T26
+
+## Acceptance checklist
+
+Evidence comes from the T12 runs of `omarchy-iso/release/omarchy-2026.10.06-x86_64-local.iso` in QEMU (omarchy 4e323342, omarchy-iso 8d069b0, omarchy-pkgs a84ad64c).
+
+| # | Requirement | Result | Evidence |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| 1 | China package sources: `pkgs.omarchy.cn` before `.org`, Arch `.cn` mirrors before `.org`, `omarchy update` keeps them | Pass | China install has a `.cn` twin above each `.org` server in `pacman.conf` and `mirrorlist`; `omarchy update -y` keeps them while the installed Omarchy package is the local build (see the pin above); `region-test.sh`, `region-switch-test.sh`. Arch `.cn` hosts do not resolve yet, so pacman falls through to `.org`. |
+| 2 | Region choice on the installer's first screen | Pass | Configurator asks Global/China before the keyboard; summary shows the region; `test_region.py`, `setup-form-test.sh`; both QEMU installs answered it. |
+| 3 | Chinese input ready at first login, Ctrl+Space toggles | Pass | China install: Rime Ice and the Wanxiang model from the ISO, no prompt; after reboot Ctrl+Space typed 中文, then Ctrl+Space typed `ok`. Global install has no Rime. |
+| 4 | CJK font fix (PR 9693) | Pass | `50-omarchy.conf` rebuilt; `fontconfig-cjk-test.sh` covers fc-match and the string lang path apps use; China VM resolves SC, JP and Latin mono as expected. |
+| 5 | Claude Code third-party API in settings; Kimi Code and Dim | Pass | Setup > Claude Code API (China only) wrote the DeepSeek env; `claude -p` reached api.deepseek.com (401 for a fake key). Both regions install the `dim` and `kimi` launchers; in China `dim` 0.5.16 and `kimi` 2.1.1 ran. |
+| 6 | China mirrors for npm, Arch, Ruby, Go, Rust, Python, Java | Pass | China VM: npm, pip, uv, go, rustup, cargo, gem, bundler and maven each exit 0 and leave the artifact; eight log an npmmirror or Aliyun URL, cargo logs the `aliyun` registry and caches under `mirrors.aliyun.com-*`. |
+| 7 | China software entry | Pass | Install > China Apps lists WeChat and the others only in China; `china-apps-test.sh`. |
+| 8 | Region switch in settings | Pass | China to Global: `.org` only, `en_US`, drop-ins and Claude env removed, CJK fonts and Rime kept, China rows hidden, `omarchy update -y` stays Global and English (old bug fixed). Global to China: `.cn` twins, `zh_CN`, Rime set up, update keeps it. Global from the start installs no Rime. Dim and Kimi stay in every case. |
+| 9 | Stock Omarchy logo only | Pass | No OmarchyCN asset in any of the three branches; screens show the stock logo. |
+| - | Test ISO built and tested in QEMU | Pass | Local-source ISO; China guest checks 16/16, Global 9/9; in-guest `./test/all`: 4635 passing assertions, run exited 1 (`ascii-test` fails only without `LANG` over ssh; the guest has no `omarchy-pkgs` checkout). |

+Open items outside this branch: the shipping prerequisites above; upstream acceptance-suite failures (surfaces kept mapped at 1x1, English OCR on a Chinese UI, notification OCR timeout); deferred provisioning and factory reset get no offline input method; the menu's "Go…" prompt and keybinding and notification texts stay English.
