Bar-widget panels (audio, bluetooth, network, power, monitor) used to be
toggled via their own per-plugin IpcHandler targets. Quickshell resolves
duplicate targets first-handler-wins, so after a plugin or bar reload the
stale handler of the destroyed widget instance kept claiming the target
and the hotkeys went dead.
The shell root's IpcHandler lives outside the reload cycle, so summon,
hide, and toggle now go through `omarchy-shell shell toggle <plugin>`
and the shell routes to the live widget instance via the bar's slot
registry. Panel plugins that are also panel/overlay/menu kinds keep
using the panel loader path. Failures to find a live widget are logged
so a widget missing from the bar layout stays diagnosable.

A previous submap attempt was brittle because the script owned the
keyboard state: if it died between enter and exit, the submap stuck.
This version lets the compositor own both edges. The Lua config binds
plain Return when a layer surface with slurp's "selection" namespace
opens and unbinds it when the last one closes, so the bind exists
exactly while a pick is on screen. slurp dying for any reason (cancel,
crash, pkill, SIGKILL of the picker) fires layer.closed and the bind
evaporates — there is no code path where it leaks.
Return invokes omarchy-capture-region --take-fullscreen, which flags a
marker in XDG_RUNTIME_DIR and dismisses slurp; the picker treats an
empty slurp result with a fresh marker as the focused monitor, reusing
the existing fullscreen path. Since monitor focus follows the cursor,
that is the monitor under the slurp crosshair. The recording flow gets
monitor:NAME from the existing match, so Return during a recording
pick starts a native full-monitor capture.
The signal mode no-ops unless slurp is actually running, and both the
signal protocol and the layer-scoped bind lifecycle are verified live:
bind present only while slurp is open, real picks resolved by the
signal on both the screenshot and recording paths, no leftover binds.

The wifi panel was a bar-widget xdg-popup which Hyprland doesn't grant
keyboard focus to until the user clicks or hovers it — keys typed after
a SUPER+CTRL+W summon went to whatever previously had focus.
New shared Common.KeyboardPanel scaffolding: layer-shell PanelWindow
with WlrKeyboardFocus.Exclusive (granted at map time, the protocol-level
equivalent of focus-on-launch for xdg-toplevels), full-screen anchored
with a Region mask that subtracts the bar strip so bar widgets stay
clickable, MouseArea for outside-click dismissal, TransformWatcher for
reactive anchor-position tracking. API is a subset of Common.PopupCard
(no centerOnBar / triggerMode / containsMouse yet — adding when the
other bar popups migrate).
networkPanel.qml uses it. Adds full keyboard navigation:
j/k or Up/Down — move selection
Return/Space — connect (or disconnect if already connected)
x — forget the highlighted network
r — refresh scan
Esc — close
ListView (with positionViewAtIndex on currentIndex) replaces the
Repeater+Column inside Flickable so the selected row stays visible as
j/k walks past the cap. A 1.5s Timer re-polls detailsProc while open
so the connection details (IP, gateway, signal) populate when routing
actually comes up after a connect rather than waiting for re-summon.
Rows: lock glyph on the right for protected-and-not-connected, X
(forget) for connected — aligned to the same 22-wide column. Connect
glyph in the passphrase prompt switched to a check, no separate cancel
(Esc handles it).
SUPER+CTRL+W in utilities.lua now toggles this panel via
omarchy-shell-ipc instead of launching Impala. Right-click on the bar
icon still launches Impala as a fallback for hidden SSIDs / enterprise
auth / iwd edge cases.
The old bash bin short-circuited with close_visible_quickshell_menu at
the top of open_quickshell_menu, so pressing any menu keybind while the
menu was open just closed it. The IPC path I introduced summoned every
time, so keyboard shortcuts couldn't dismiss \u2014 only outside clicks did
(which is why the bar icon appeared to toggle: clicking it while the
menu was open hit the menu's outer-click MouseArea, not the icon).
Add a menu.toggle IPC method:
- if root.opened: cancel() and return "closed"
- otherwise: behaves exactly like summon
Switch every Hyprland binding and the two bar-icon click handlers
(omarchy logo, battery right-click \u2192 power menu) to toggle. summon stays
as the always-open primitive for callers that want explicit summon
semantics (rare \u2014 right now nothing internal uses it).
The shell now owns the menu — both data and dispatch. The 821-line bash
bin was carrying the open path (cold spawn + jq pipeline + tempfile dance
+ IPC + poll) and a grab-bag of helpers that only existed inside it. Both
go away in this commit.
New bins for the few composite helpers that were genuinely worth keeping:
- omarchy-install-app NAME PKG
- omarchy-install-and-launch NAME PKG DESKTOP_ID
- omarchy-install-font LABEL PKG FAMILY
- omarchy-launch-config-editor PATH
- omarchy-reminder-set-interactive
- omarchy-capture-screenrecording-with-webcam
Sweep through default/omarchy/omarchy-menu.jsonc rewrites:
- present_terminal X -> omarchy-launch-floating-terminal-with-presentation X
- install_terminal X -> omarchy-launch-floating-terminal-with-presentation 'omarchy-install-terminal X'
- install / install_and_launch / install_font / open_in_editor -> new bins above
- terminal X -> xdg-terminal-exec --app-id=org.omarchy.terminal X
- default_browser_is X -> [[ "$(omarchy-default-browser)" == "X" ]]
- default_terminal_is X / default_editor_is X / haptic_touchpad_is X same shape
- $(hypr_config_file X) -> ~/.config/hypr/X.lua
- show_custom_reminder_input -> omarchy-reminder-set-interactive
- screenrecord_with_webcam -> omarchy-capture-screenrecording-with-webcam
- stop_active_screenrecording -> omarchy-capture-screenrecording --stop-recording
Hyprland bindings switch from `omarchy-menu X` to
`omarchy-shell-ipc menu summon X` (the keybind hot path now skips bash
entirely). The Bar.qml omarchy widget and the battery right-click do the
same. ALT+PRINT becomes a one-liner: stop the recording if one is going,
otherwise summon the screenrecord submenu.
Measured: keybind-to-visible is ~30ms (was ~235ms). The shell's plugin
keepLoaded:true stops being theoretical \u2014 the menu data lives in memory
across opens, and the only work between keypress and paint is the IPC
roundtrip and the layer-shell window mount.
Adds first-party omarchy.notifications service plugin that hosts a
freedesktop notification server and renders popups + a history popup
inside the shell. Uninstalls mako and retargets every helper, keybind,
indicator, and migration entry to the new daemon.
Plugin (default/quickshell/omarchy-shell/plugins/notifications/):
- Service.qml: NotificationServer, popupModel + pendingModel + pastModel
(two-tier history, see below), DND via PersistentProperties +
cache-file backstop, image cache for /tmp screenshots, IpcHandler with
toggleDnd/setDnd/isDnd/showHistory/clear/clearPending/markAllSeen/
dismissAll/dismissOne/invokeLast/dismiss, per-theme override file
~/.config/omarchy/current/theme/notifications.json honoring
borderColor/backgroundColor/textColor/countdownColor.
- components/NotificationCard.qml: theme-driven card (Color.foreground/
background/border tokens from Commons/Color.qml), 32x32 icon slot,
Nerd Font glyph fallback via omarchy-glyph hint, hero image strip
for screenshot/image-path notifications, hover-pause progress bar,
uses bar.fontFamily so all surfaces share one font.
Filtering and DND:
- transient hint and CLI-style senders (app_name in notify-send /
omarchy-action) bypass history but still pop.
- DND only allows omarchy-action toasts and notify-send -u critical
through; real-app urgency=critical (Discord, Slack, Vesktop) is
silenced and lands in pending instead.
- Pending vs past split surfaced via tabs in the bar widget popup;
past tab is auto-pruned at the 15-minute mark.
- Click-to-jump: notifications without a libnotify default action focus
the matching Hyprland window via class lookup.
Shell host:
- shell.qml: generic first-party service loader (mirrors the existing
noctalia-compat path) and an alias for the bar so plugins can read
barSize / barHidden / position for anchoring.
- Commons/Color.qml: parses the theme's hyprland.conf for
$activeBorderColor so notifications match Hyprland window borders;
picks the explicit accent= key over the color4= alias.
Bar widget rebase (plugins/bar/widgets/notificationCenter.qml):
- Drops the chunk-1 stub server, binds count/dnd state to the service,
hosts the history popup via PopupCard so it drops down from the
notification glyph the same way Quick Settings does.
- Pending/Past tabs, dismiss-individual close X, mark-all-as-seen and
clear-recent action buttons, theme-driven palette.
Quick Settings rework (plugins/bar/widgets/controlCenter.qml):
- DND tile binds directly to service.doNotDisturb for instant feedback.
- Drops the volume slider (already in audioPanel) and the no-op Theme
tile; adds a Bluetooth toggle bound to Quickshell.Bluetooth.
- Bigger 44x44 wallet was scaled back to 32x32 for tighter rows.
Notification scripts (bin/omarchy-*):
- omarchy-notification-send: passes glyph as a custom hint instead of
prepending to the summary; adds -a omarchy-action and -u urgency
automatically; supports -e/--transient passthrough.
- User-action toasts in the capture / toggle / hyprland / default-*
scripts and bindings/utilities.lua now tag themselves
-a omarchy-action so DND treats them as intent-based bypass.
- omarchy-toggle-notification-silencing, omarchy-notification-dismiss,
default/waybar/indicators/notification-silencing.sh, and the Hyprland
comma-keybinds all route through omarchy-shell-ipc notifications.
- omarchy-capture-screenshot / -screenrecording set the image-path
hint properly so the hero-image rendering kicks in.
Mako removal (migrations/1778743515.sh):
- pkill -x mako, systemctl --user stop mako.service, pacman -Rns mako
(uninstalling deletes /usr/lib/systemd/user/mako.service so D-Bus
activation can't respawn it). Removes ~/.config/mako/ and the legacy
toggle file. Restarts quickshell so it claims the bus name.
- Drops mako from install/omarchy-base.packages, autostart.lua,
install/config/theme.sh + toggles.sh, default/themed/mako.ini.tpl,
default/mako/, the omarchy-menu Mako restart row, bin/omarchy
GROUP_DESCRIPTIONS, the settings panel catalogue, and the
default/omarchy-skill paths table.
- Removed scripts: bin/omarchy-restart-mako,
bin/omarchy-style-corners-mako.
- bin/omarchy-style-corners summary updated; corner radius for the
notification card reads ~/.local/state/omarchy/toggles/quickshell-menu.json
alongside the rest of the shell.
