Reorganizes Omarchy 4 around three layers for populating $HOME:
Seed: omarchy-settings ships defaults to /etc/skel; useradd -m
copies them on user creation
Finalize: omarchy-finalize-user (renamed from omarchy-setup-user)
handles only the runtime tweaks /etc/skel can't do — skill
symlinks, xdg-user-dirs, default browser/mailto, vconsole→hypr
keyboard sync, and install/user/all.sh
Resync: omarchy-reinstall-configs is the explicit, destructive
resync of /etc/skel into an existing user's $HOME
Package-owned files move out of config/ into default/, where the
omarchy-settings PKGBUILD installs them to real system paths:
config/environment.d/fcitx.conf -> /usr/lib/environment.d/
config/fontconfig/fonts.conf -> /usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/
config/mimeapps.list -> /usr/share/applications/
config/omarchy.ttf -> /usr/share/fonts/omarchy/
config/systemd/user/*.service -> /usr/lib/systemd/user/
config/uwsm/default -> /usr/share/omarchy/default/uwsm/
config/uwsm/env -> /usr/share/uwsm/env.d/10-omarchy
config/xdg-terminals.list -> /usr/share/xdg-terminal-exec/
omarchy-upgrade-to-4 grows a 'retire' action (renamed from 'move' to
clarify nothing is copied — the system path is owned by the new package
once the user's hash-matched ~/.config copy is removed). Mismatched
copies are kept as backups so user overrides survive the upgrade.
Other simplifications:
- Single env bootstrap at default/bash/env-bootstrap sourced by
/etc/profile.d/omarchy.sh, /etc/skel/.bashrc,
/usr/share/uwsm/env.d/10-omarchy, and default/bash/envs. PATH
prepend only in dev-link mode (production uses /usr/bin/omarchy-*).
- omarchy-refresh-config reads from /etc/skel/.config so refresh
means 'snap to skel'.
- omarchy-reinstall-configs collapses to 'cp -af /etc/skel/. ~/'
plus limine/plymouth/nvim refresh.
- omarchy-font-set uses awk against our own 30-omarchy.conf instead
of xmlstarlet; xmlstarlet dropped from omarchy-base.packages.
- Defer user systemd enables (bt-agent, sleep-lock,
recover-internal-monitor) to first-run via
install/user/first-run/enable-user-units.sh; delete
omarchy-user-systemctl-enable and the per-hardware install
scripts that called it.
- Wireplumber bluetooth-a2dp-autoconnect.conf moves to config/ so
/etc/skel ships it; install/user/hardware/bluetooth.sh deleted.
- Default terminal switched to foot.desktop.
- docs/file-layout.md documents the three-layer model and the
build-time repo→path map.
Introduce a self-contained omarchy-upgrade-to-4 command for legacy installs and remove the 4.0 package-layout transition from the normal migration runner.
Remove legacy online installer entrypoints, collapse migrations for 4.0, and move setup responsibilities into target-side system, hardware, and user commands.
- bin/omarchy-wifi-powersave: shopt -s nullglob. Previously, machines
with no wireless interfaces ran the loop once with the literal glob
('iface=*'), failed iw, and exited 237. With the new always-installed
udev rule that invokes this on every AC transition, the failure
would surface as failed transient omarchy-wifi-powersave-* units on
desktops. Now it cleanly no-ops.
- migrations/1779307845.sh: add 'systemctl daemon-reload' so the
plocate-updatedb.service.d/ac-only.conf drop-in is picked up on
upgrade. Arch's systemd pacman hook only triggers on
/usr/lib/systemd/system/*, not /etc/systemd/system/*.
- install/config/powerprofilesctl-rules.sh and wifi-powersave-rules.sh:
rm -f the pre-rename legacy paths before udevadm reload, so the
cleanup is idempotent outside the one-shot migration (matters for
re-install/downgrade testing).
Four scripts that wrote static /etc or /usr files become package-shipped
files. The other config-script audit candidates (omarchy-ai-skill,
nautilus-python, omarchy-toggles, input-group) correctly stay scripts —
they're user-level operations, not /etc writes.
New package-owned files (omarchy-installer/etc/, shipped by
omarchy-settings):
- etc/systemd/system/plocate-updatedb.service.d/ac-only.conf
- etc/udev/rules.d/99-omarchy-power-profile.rules
- etc/udev/rules.d/99-omarchy-wifi-powersave.rules
The two udev rule files are renamed for namespacing (99-power-profile
-> 99-omarchy-power-profile; 99-wifi-powersave -> 99-omarchy-wifi-powersave)
and rewritten to invoke /usr/bin/omarchy-powerprofiles-set and
/usr/bin/omarchy-wifi-powersave instead of $HOME/.local/share/omarchy/bin/...
(both binaries ship in the omarchy package at /usr/bin/).
The battery-present gate from the original scripts is dropped — the rules
trigger on power_supply udev events, which are benign on desktops without
batteries. (The runtime commands no-op on AC-only systems.)
Script changes:
- install/config/plocate-ac-only.sh: DELETED (file ships, daemon-reload
happens via pacman hook).
- install/config/unmount-fuse.sh: DELETED (file ships at
/usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/unmount-fuse via omarchy-settings).
- install/config/powerprofilesctl-rules.sh: SHRINK to runtime ops
(enable power-profiles-daemon, udevadm reload+trigger).
- install/config/wifi-powersave-rules.sh: SHRINK to udevadm reload+trigger.
- install/config/all.sh: drop the two deleted entries.
bin/omarchy-update-system-pkgs: add --overwrite for plocate-updatedb
drop-in and unmount-fuse paths (the udev rule renames need no overwrite
since the new paths are virgin).
migrations/1779307845.sh: remove the legacy 99-power-profile.rules and
99-wifi-powersave.rules paths on existing installs, then reload udev.
Existing users upgrading from script-installed Omarchy still have files
the install scripts wrote at the OLD paths. The new package can't own
those old paths (they were either renamed or replaced by drop-ins), so
this migration tidies them up:
- /etc/sysctl.d/99-sysctl.conf: strip the appended net.ipv4.tcp_mtu_probing
line (new file is /etc/sysctl.d/99-omarchy-sysctl.conf)
- /etc/modprobe.d/disable-usb-autosuspend.conf: removed
(new file is /etc/modprobe.d/omarchy-usb-autosuspend.conf)
- /etc/sudoers.d/{passwd-tries,asdcontrol}: removed
(new files are /etc/sudoers.d/omarchy-{passwd-tries,asdcontrol})
- /etc/systemd/system/user@.service.d/faster-shutdown.conf: removed
(new file is 10-faster-shutdown.conf)
- /etc/systemd/logind.conf HandlePowerKey=ignore line: reset to its
commented default so the logind.conf.d/ drop-in is the only source
After cleanup, systemctl daemon-reload + sysctl --system to pick up the
new state immediately.
Download the current page's video with yt-dlp via Alt+Shift+D or a click
on the toolbar icon. A native-messaging host runs the download, shows live
progress on the Quickshell OSD, and posts a clickable "Download complete"
toast that opens the file in mpv.
- Extension: pinned key for a stable id, green download-video icon,
keyboard command + toolbar action (reads the active tab URL).
- Native host (omarchy-chromium-ytdlp-host): verifies the URL with
yt-dlp --simulate (else "No video found"), streams progress to the OSD
(time-throttled to ~4/s), saves to ~/Videos, opens mpv on click.
- Installer (omarchy-install-chromium-ytdlp) writes the native-messaging
manifest into installed Chromium/Chrome/Brave/Edge profiles; wired into
browser install and chromium refresh, with a migration for existing users.
- omarchy-osd: add -d/--duration so the OSD can persist during a download.
- Add yt-dlp to base packages, load the extension via --load-extension,
and document the Alt+Shift+D binding.

Update existing terminal configs to encode Shift+Return as CSI-u so Codex and other TUIs can distinguish it from Return without tmux seeing it as Alt+Return. Also ensures Alt+Shift+Return CSI-u bindings remain present for tmux horizontal splits across Kitty, Ghostty, and Foot.
