* Run menu summon actions in-process A menu action that only summons another shell plugin spawned bash and a qs ipc client to ask this same shell to do it, about 60ms of the path. Call shell.summon directly instead, and fall back to bash when the call is refused or the action is anything more than a bare summon.

The picker now holds the theme rows itself, opens from them at once, and refreshes them behind the open via omarchy-theme-switcher --print-rows. It applies the chosen theme with omarchy-theme-set directly, so omarchy-theme-set no longer preloads the picker. From the keybinding to the overlay mapped drops from ~245ms to ~83ms.

Keep the surface and park it transparent and input-less on the bottom layer while closed, since anything on the overlay layer blocks direct scanout for fullscreen apps. It follows the focused monitor on each open. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
