Install rows hid themselves with `when:"! <present>"`, so software you
already had vanished from the very list it was installed from. Add a
`disabled:` guard that keeps a row listed but dim, ✓-marked, unselectable
and out of search, and move every Install row onto it.

The row list was capped at 60% of screen height so a card could never read
as a page. On a laptop-height display that folds the starting menu one row
early, hiding About behind the peek for no gain.

* Evaluate menu guards one run at a time
A second evaluation starting while one was in flight could not replace it.
Process ignores a command change until the next run and `running = true` is
a no-op while running, so setting them did nothing -- but clearing
`collected` first threw away the lines the running script had already
emitted. Its tail then landed as the entire result, and every id missing
from it went back to showing, since `when:` only hides a row on an explicit
false. That is how Setup > Defaults > Browser ends up listing browsers that
are not installed.
Queue the evaluation instead and run it once the one in flight lands, the
way provider enumeration already waits its turn.
* Answer repeated menu guard questions once per evaluation
The menu opens on the last evaluation's answers, so however long the guard
batch takes is how long a row can contradict the state it describes: stop a
recording and Screenrecord still offers to stop it, because the `pgrep` that
would hide it is queued behind fifty package lookups.
Almost none of that time is the questions, it is asking them one process at
a time. The shipped menu runs `omarchy-pkg-present` 54 times and
`omarchy-cmd-present` 23, and reads `omarchy-default-browser` once per row
in Defaults > Browser. Prepend a prelude that answers all of it inside the
one guard process, off a single package listing, bash's own PATH lookup, and
one capture per reader command. The captures are eager because `checked:`
reads them inside `$()`, where a lazy memo would not outlive the subshell.
Takes the shipped batch from 1.49s to 0.25s with identical answers for all
175 guards.
* Make the guard prelude answer exactly as the commands it stands in for
The prelude only helps if it is indistinguishable from the commands it
shadows, and it was not:
- `pacman -Q` resolves a name through what installed packages provide, so
with gvim installed it reports `vim` as present. A set built from
`pacman -Qq` sees only names, so `install.editor.vim` came back and
offered to install what was already there. Build the set from provides
too, and send version constraints, which no set can answer, to pacman.
- `omarchy-cmd-present` uses `command -v`, which finds builtins; `type -P`
searches PATH alone and disagreed on every one of them.
- Shadowing a reader with a function caught far more than the plain
`$(reader)` the rows use: `command -v omarchy-dns` got the function name,
and `VAR=x omarchy-channel-current` got an answer captured without the
variable. Substitute the captured value into the expression instead and
leave every other form to run the real command.
- A reader that exits nonzero could take the batch down under a login shell
with errexit set.
Also keep the results of a batch that was killed rather than finished, since
a row whose `when:` went unanswered shows, which is the failure this set of
changes exists to remove.
Costs 0.25s -> 0.33s against 1.49s before any of this, still with answers
identical to evaluating each guard on its own.
* Read every provide pacman reports, wrapped or not
`pacman -Qi` wraps a long list onto indented continuation lines whenever
COLUMNS is set in the environment, which the login shell the batch runs
under may well have done. Reading only the line that starts with `Provides`
dropped the rest: at COLUMNS=80 that is 537 of 856 provides on this machine,
which puts back exactly the "offers to install what is already there"
failure the provides lookup was added to prevent. Follow the continuation
lines instead.
The version-constraint case was also not testing what it claimed.
Interpolating the argument into the shadow's script text let `bash>=1` parse
as a redirection, so the shadow was handed `bash` and quietly agreed for the
wrong reason -- and left an `=1` file behind, which got committed. Pass
arguments as argv to both sides, drop the file, and wrap gvim's provides in
the stub so the parser is held to the format pacman actually emits.
Select-menu options gain an optional third field rendered under the
label, filtered alongside it, and returned with the selection. The
plugin picker uses it to show every plugin's id and act on the id the
selection hands back, replacing the duplicate-name label suffix.

An installed app whose .desktop Keywords contain a menu id captured the
route: htop ships Keywords=system;..., so SUPER+ESCAPE opened an empty
"Htop" menu instead of the System menu once the Apps menu had merged its
rows. Exact ids now win, and app rows are no longer routable at all —
their keywords remain search-only.

The first submenu move or search keystroke already froze the card's top
edge; freeze the rows height at the same moment so drilling into a longer
menu scrolls behind the fold instead of growing the card.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Menus used to cut off clean at ten rows, so anything below the fold was
undiscoverable. Now the list sizes to what fits within 60% of the screen
and always ends mid-row when items overflow, with scroll-position-driven
fades at both edges. Keyboard navigation keeps the next hidden row peeking
past the cursor so the fold affordance travels with the selection.

* Give built-in plugins an honest on/off state
Every built-in reported itself enabled no matter what. A bar widget said
"enabled" while sitting nowhere near the bar, and disabling a built-in service
silently did nothing, because enabled meant "listed in plugins[]" and a
built-in never is. Nothing surfaced that, since the only caller listing plugins
was the CLI.
For a widget, on and off is its place in the bar, so listPlugins reports layout
membership -- what enable/disable actually toggles. For everything else built
in, loading by default is the right behaviour to keep, so switching one off is
recorded the other way round, in disabledPlugins[]. shell.json still carries
only the deviation from the defaults: the key is dropped the moment nothing is
switched off, leaving a config that never disabled anything byte-identical.
isEnabled still answers a separate question -- whether the component loads at
all -- and deliberately does not follow a widget out of the bar. omarchy.menu
is both a widget and the menu itself, so tying the two together would let
taking its button off the bar lock the menu out of the shell, with no way back
that isn't the CLI.

* Manage plugins from Setup > Plugins
Plugins were CLI-only. Setup > Plugins now offers Enable, Disable, Add, and
Remove, each list living in the menu itself so picking a row acts on it.
Enable and Disable cover the built-ins as well as anything installed -- the bar
widgets you can put in the bar, the services and overlays you can switch off.
Remove is limited to plugins the user installed, since a built-in has no
checkout to delete, and stays hidden until there is one. Whole-bar
replacements are left out; those are chosen under Style.
Enabling a bar widget asks for a section first, because enabling alone drops it
on the right and the only way to move it was a follow-up bar plugin move. The
CLI asks the same question after its own add, so both paths place a widget the
same way. Add and Remove run in a terminal: one needs a git URL and shows the
trust warning before cloning, the other deletes a checkout and prints where it
backed it up.
Providers grew two hooks for this. placementFor turns a row into a submenu
instead of an action, and volatile re-runs the enumeration when its submenu is
entered -- picking from these lists is what changes them, and rows a provider
no longer returns now drop out instead of lingering forever.

* Trim the plugin menu after review
Menu.qml carried its own shellQuote while already importing Util and calling
Util.shellQuote a few lines up; two copies of the same escaping is one place
for a future fix to miss. isDisabled walked the array by hand to compare values
it writes itself, and dropDisabled was an eight-line helper with one caller.
Two bugs came out of the same pass. A whole-bar replacement belongs under Style
rather than these lists, but the exclusion sat in the shared row builder, so a
third-party bar could be installed and never removed -- Remove would show an
empty list under a guard that said something was there. The exclusion now sits
on the two lists that mean it.
Rows are keyed by id, and distinct plugin ids can slugify alike: acme.foo,
acme_foo and acme-foo all give acme-foo. The merge keeps the first row per id,
so the rest simply vanished from the list with nothing to say why. Row ids are
now made distinct before merging.

* Pick a plugin the way we pick a theme
Setup > Plugins listed plugins as menu rows, which needed three providers, a
placement submenu, a volatile-refresh hook and a row-swap in the merge. Only
Font and Apps are built that way. Theme, Background, Unlock, Timezone and
Keybindings all pipe a list into omarchy-menu-select instead, which is one
action string and a small script -- so that is what these use now.
The trade is search: a plugin name is no longer findable from the root prompt.
Neither is a theme name or a timezone, and Enable Plugin still is, so the loss
sits where the rest of the menu already puts it.
Two pieces of the row machinery stay, because they are worth having for the
lists that remain. A volatile provider re-runs when its submenu is entered, so
a font installed since the shell started now shows up without restarting it,
and rows a provider stops returning drop out. Row ids are still made distinct
before merging: Fira Code and Fira-Code both slug to fira-code, and a repeated
id was silently dropped.

* Let a picked option carry an icon
Moving the plugin lists onto omarchy-menu-select cost them their glyphs: the
select mode has always hardcoded an empty icon, which is why Timezone and
Keybindings have none either. An option may now lead with one, as
"<glyph><TAB><label>". The menu shows the glyph, filters on the label, and
hands the label back, so a caller never strips a glyph off its own selection
and a list of plain strings behaves exactly as before.
The plugin picker uses it for the puzzle glyph on each plugin and the align
glyphs on the sections, which also regain the capitals they lost when the
section names were passed through raw.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Switch bars by enabling one
A bar option was kept out of Enable and Disable on the grounds that picking
which bar to run belongs under Style -- but nothing under Style ever offered
it, so an installed bar could be added and removed and never actually put to
use. The menu was guarding a door to a room that was never built.
Enabling one is the switch. setEnabled already assigns bar.id for a bar
option, so a bar has always replaced the one before it; only the picker's
filter stood in the way. Dropping it costs nothing else, because enabled for a
bar option means active: the bar in use is the one row absent from Enable,
every other installed bar is one pick away, and the built-in is just another
entry, so going back to it is enabling Bar.
Disable keeps the exclusion. That is the one verb a bar cannot answer -- there
is no off, only a successor -- and offering it would have listed the built-in
bar on a stock system, where turning it off deletes a bar.id that was never
set and nothing happens.
A bar carries the bar glyph rather than the puzzle one, so a row that replaces
the whole bar does not read like one more widget to switch on, and enable now
says "Now using X as the bar" instead of "Enabled X", which understated a
whole-bar swap in both the enable and the freshly-added path.

* Refuse a plugin that declares a kind it cannot load
A kind is a promise to supply something to load, and the shell reads that
something from a fixed key: entryPoints.bar to draw a bar, entryPoints.menu to
open a menu. Nothing checked the promise. A manifest could claim kinds ["bar"]
with no bar entry point, pass validation, install, and enable -- and then the
bar would fall back to the built-in and the widget would be skipped, leaving a
plugin that does nothing, explained only by a console.warn nobody reads.
Our own plugins have been held to this table by plugins-test.sh all along.
This holds third-party ones to the same table, at add and update time, where
there is still someone to tell.
A kind outside the table is left alone rather than guessed at, so a shell that
learns a new kind does not need this list updated first. The cost is that a
misspelled kind still installs quietly.
omarchy-plugin-validate had no tests; it has some now.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Act on the plugin whose row was picked
The picker showed a name and then looked that name up again across every
plugin, filtered set or not, taking the first match. Two plugins can share a
name: cloning one keeps the name it was cloned from, so the documented
`omarchy plugin clone omarchy.clock local.clock` leaves two plugins called
Clock. Enable listed the clone -- the built-in was already enabled, so only the
clone was eligible -- and then enabled omarchy.clock, moving the built-in
widget instead. Remove listed the clone and tried to delete a built-in that has
no checkout to delete.
A row now carries its id alongside its label, and the id is read back off the
row that was picked instead of being derived from the name a second time. Where
a name is not unique among the rows on offer, the label carries the id too, so
two rows that would both say Clock can be told apart at all -- which they could
not before, whichever one the pick resolved to.
The verb prompt only ever sees the first two fields, so the menu shows what it
always did.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Never ask a bar where to sit in the bar
A manifest may declare both bar and bar-widget, and validation accepts it. The
picker saw bar-widget, asked for a section, and passed it to enable. setEnabled
takes bar as the dominant kind: it writes bar.id and returns, adding nothing to
any layout, so the move that followed had no widget to find and failed -- after
the bar had already been switched. A partial success with an error on the way
out.
Bar wins ahead of bar-widget now, in the picker and in the placement prompt
`plugin add --enable` asks, so a bar is enabled without a placement it cannot
use. The CLI refuses a placement on a bar outright, before the bar is switched
rather than after, since `omarchy plugin enable <bar> --section left` could
reach the same half-applied state without going through either.

Say it once and match mergeAppRows: app rows sort after all menu items,
not interleaved among them.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Searching the menu for an installed app buried it: "brave" listed Setup >
Defaults > Browser, Install > Browser and Remove > Browser ahead of the
Brave app itself. All four are exact label matches scoring 0, so the
tiebreak falls to declaration order, and mergeAppRows appends app rows
after every static item.
Bias app rows ahead of menu entries that match equally well. The bias is
smaller than the gap between match tiers, so a menu entry that matches the
query better still sorts first.

The apps list rebuilt its rows by writing into the maps held by the menu's
items and itemOrder var properties. Writing into an object owned by a QML var
property is not reliable: the same row object written into a plain JS object
always lands, but written through the property it occasionally arrives with the
key created and the value undefined. One write per rescan was lost, on a
different app each time.
A lost write left an id in itemOrder with no item behind it. The old purge only
deleted app rows it could find in items, so the orphan survived the next merge,
the add loop appended a second row for the same app, and the list grew by one --
permanently, and again on every later rescan. Touching a single desktop file
fires around a dozen merges, because the entry model emits valuesChanged per
insert and removal while it reconciles, so duplicates piled up quickly: nine
YouTube rows on the reporting machine, and Alacritty doubled before that.
The bookkeeping moves into MenuModel as two pure functions that build fresh maps
for the caller to assign in one shot, so the fragile write disappears. They also
make the merge self-healing rather than merely correct-when-nothing-is-lost: an
id with no item is dropped instead of carried forward, and an id is listed once
even when two desktop entries claim it -- so no single dropped write can compound
into a duplicate row again. The bash-backed providers behind the font and power
profile lists had the same latent bug and get the same treatment.

The menu card re-centered on every resize, so searching or moving into
a submenu made it jump around. It still opens centered like before, but
the first search keystroke or submenu move freezes the top line where
it sits — from then on the card only grows and shrinks downward.
Closing unfreezes. Also drop the 220px minimum height so the card
always hugs its content instead of leaving a void under short lists.

Accumulate sub-threshold movement so slow motion with a flat acceleration profile updates selection. Sample pointer state on row entry and carry pointer intent through subordinate menus while preserving predictable keyboard selection.
Static submenus and links now inherit visibility from their descendants,
so hardware sections like Touchpad Haptics disappear on machines without
the hardware instead of opening empty. Laptop Display and Mirror Display
are guarded by omarchy-hw-laptop.
The guard evaluator brace-wraps every when/checked condition before
silencing it, so conditions in the jsonc no longer need their own
>/dev/null plumbing, and parents no longer need to repeat their
children's guards.

Each `bash -lc` starts a login shell that re-sources the profile
(mise activation, /etc/profile.d) on every invocation — ~16 forks per
call versus ~2 for `bash -c` — which taxes every menu/panel/launcher
action the shell shells out for. The session already exports PATH and
env to the shell, so omarchy commands resolve fine under `bash -c`.
Switch the internal/omarchy-owned spawns (theme+background switches,
brightness, monitor scaling, DNS, lock/fingerprint, keyboard-layout
probe, voxtype status, and the `:`/printf state-file writes) to
`bash -c`. Leave `bash -lc` on the sites that run user-configurable
commands (custom bar-widget exec, menu provider/guard scripts,
launcher scan commands, configurable idle/screensaver command), where
a user's command may rely on their login environment.

With initial workspace tracking disabled, windows naturally open on the active workspace. Remove the explicit Hyprland workspace dispatch and let shell actions, shell restarts, and presentation terminals launch directly.
Explicit profile selections from the power panel or menu are now saved
under an ac/battery key in ~/.local/state/omarchy/powerprofiles and
reapplied on boot and on plug/unplug. Only successful, user-made
selections are persisted, so the performance/balanced defaults still
apply when nothing has been chosen.
All entry points key off the same power signal, UPower's OnBattery:
the shell reads it natively and omarchy-powerprofiles-set autodetect
queries it via busctl. This replaces the sysfs online checks, which
disagreed with the shell on desktops without power_supply entries and
lagged behind plug events on some USB-C laptops.
Plug/unplug switching moves from the udev rule into the shell's battery
service, which already receives UPower's debounced state changes, so
the udev rule and its settle-sleep workaround are gone.

Five plugins (menu, launcher, clipboard, emojis, polkit) each looked up
OMARCHY_MENU_FONT with the same env-or-monospace fallback. Hoist the
resolution into Style so plugins read one source of truth, and so the
fallback follows the real fontconfig family Style already tracks instead
of the literal string "monospace".
Themes now drive typography the same way they drive colors: one [font]
base-size in shell.toml is the rem root, and every Style.font.<token>
(caption, bodySmall, body, subtitle, title, heading, display,
displayLarge, iconSmall, icon, iconLarge) derives from it via a fixed
multiplier. Themes can also pin individual tokens for stylistic
emphasis. base-size is clamped 11..13 until row-height tokens exist.
Bar dimensions move to the same singleton: [bar] size-horizontal /
size-vertical replace the hardcoded 26/28 in Bar.qml, exposed as
Style.bar.sizeHorizontal / sizeVertical.
Style.qml also resolves the fontconfig 'monospace' alias via fc-match
and exposes Style.font.resolvedFamily so panels can display the
concrete family. Watches ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf so it tracks
'omarchy font set <name>'.
The qs.Ui kit (PillButton, Dropdown, Toggle, TextField, etc.) and
every first-party plugin (bar widgets, settings, menu, clipboard,
emoji, polkit, notifications, osd, image-picker, dev-gallery) now
bind to Style.font.* instead of pixel literals. Only three deliberate
display-scale outliers remain: the notification empty-state glyph and
the weather flyout's hero temperature pair, all commented.
Background plugin's applyTheme IPC fast-path also pushes shell.toml to
Style so theme swaps update typography and bar size without waiting
for inotify debounce.
Dev gallery (omarchy dev ui-preview) now ships a Typography section
that renders the full scale and theme tokens live, and its summon
command is fixed (omarchy-shell-ipc -> omarchy-shell).
