Every reference doc was audited claim-by-claim against the code.
file-layout and omarchy-shell were the most decayed (renamed commands,
the etc/ overrides source split, dead IPC entry points and example keys);
update-process lagged the recent pipeline changes and gains a channels
section; theming and audio-tuning were accurate but thin around their
lifecycles.
New reference docs for the subsystems that had none: the menu system,
the CLI router, the notification daemon, and the non-acceptance test
architecture. AGENTS.md links the two of those agents will need most.

Task procedure lives in agents/skills/ (migrations.md moves there),
system-shape reference in docs/ (AUDIO-TUNING.md renamed to match),
end-user documentation in manual/. AGENTS.md now states the split.

* Add OEM first-boot setup and factory reset
An OEM-mode ISO install (or omarchy-reset-computer) leaves the machine in OEM
state: fully installed, no user, /var/lib/omarchy/oem/pending armed. On the
next boot omarchy-oem-setup.service runs the configurator's user form on tty1,
creates the user with the groups system setup recorded, finalizes it offline
from the stashed Node tarball, re-keys LUKS from the throwaway install
passphrase to the user's password, and hands off to SDDM.
omarchy-reset-computer returns a machine to that state: it swaps the running
root for a fresh clone of the @factory snapshot the ISO takes at install time,
scrubs machine identity and prior users, and stages omarchy-factory-wipe to
drop the old root and recreate @home/@log on the next boot. Machines installed
before @factory existed get a degraded reset (current system kept, users and
state wiped) with that caveat surfaced in the confirmation.
omarchy-setup-system/-hardware gain --oem to run without an install user; the
group-granting install scripts now record their groups in
/var/lib/omarchy/oem/groups and only call usermod when the user exists.

* Harden OEM setup: correct cryptsetup key-file usage, retry on failure
cryptsetup reads --test-passphrase/--key-file inputs byte-for-byte, so feed
passphrases through process substitution consistently instead of positional
args or stdin (which has different newline semantics). Run each first-boot
setup attempt as its own process so a failure offers a retry instead of
stranding the machine at a user-less login screen — bash ignores errexit
inside `while !` conditions, a child process does not.

* Always grant wheel sudo in OEM first-boot setup
Detecting an existing %wheel grant by grepping sudoers is error-prone:
omarchy ships narrow '%wheel ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: <command>' rules (e.g.
asdcontrol) that match the naive pattern, which left the OEM-created user
matching sudoers entries but unable to run anything. Write the drop-in
unconditionally — a duplicate of an existing full grant is harmless.

* Fix LUKS re-key device resolution and OEM state readability
archinstall's encrypted installs put cryptdevice=PARTUUID=... on the kernel
cmdline, not UUID=, so the first-boot re-key never found its device and
silently skipped — leaving the throwaway auto-unlock keyfile in place, i.e.
the disk effectively unencrypted. Parse every cryptdevice= source spec form
and make any re-key failure abort the attempt loudly: a retry prompt beats a
machine that quietly boots without a passphrase forever.
The OEM state directory also has to be world-readable (its one secret,
luks-key, stays 0600): user finalization reads the stashed Node tarball as
the new user, and the 0700 directory forced it onto the network fallback.
Step markers now land in /var/log/omarchy-oem-setup.log for debuggability.

* Purge stale machine-id boot entries when resetting or re-keying
limine-entry-tool keys its limine.conf OS entries by machine-id. A factory
reset gives the machine a fresh identity, so the previous system's entry
survived every rebuild, sorted first, and made Limine stop at a Blake2b
hash-mismatch warning once the UKI was rebuilt. Start limine.conf over from
the shipped template (and drop foreign machine-id history directories on the
ESP) before any post-reset rebuild: in the staged chroot rebuild, in the
first-boot LUKS re-key, and — for unencrypted resets, where nothing else
rebuilds — in a dedicated first-boot refresh when foreign entries are found.
The staged rebuild also verifies every UKI hash referenced by limine.conf
against the file on the ESP before the subvolume swap, and the running
system's limine-snapper-sync is runtime-masked during staging so it cannot
rewrite the config behind the rebuild.

* Harden reset and first-boot setup failure paths
Review findings from codex and Copilot:
- Generate throwaway passphrases without a trailing head stage: under
pipefail, SIGPIPE from the infinite tr failed the substitution and errexit
aborted every encrypted reset before it could stage anything.
- Stage the fallible parts of a degraded reset (LUKS re-key, boot rebuild)
before arming the wipe, so a staging failure leaves the machine untouched
instead of scheduling a wipe for a reset that never finished.
- Gate first-boot setup on the factory wipe having succeeded
(ConditionPathExists=!wipe-pending plus an in-script guard): creating the
new user on a half-wiped system would hand their data to the wipe retry.
- Abort the wipe (keeping its retry marker) when deleting the old root or
recreating @home/@log fails, and abort resets that cannot remove a prior
account — a surviving account keeps its password and wheel membership.
- Resume a partially-created account on setup retry instead of rejecting the
username the failed attempt just created.
- Only purge machine-id directories the old limine.conf actually referenced;
a shared ESP may hold other installations' boot artifacts.
- Recreate the hibernation swapfile (nested subvolume, so never captured by
the factory snapshot) inside the factory root before its UKI rebuild, so a
reset machine keeps disk-backed swap and a valid resume offset.
- Source base-test.sh in the OEM groups test per test conventions.

* Recreate the hibernation swapfile even when resume drop-ins survive
omarchy-hibernation-setup short-circuits as 'already set up' when the resume
mkinitcpio drop-in exists — which it always does in a factory root, while the
swapfile itself never survives the snapshot (nested subvolume). Drop the
marker when the swapfile is gone so setup reconfigures from scratch, and
verify the swapfile actually exists before proceeding with the reset.

* Second review pass: encrypted-config coverage, factory-baseline sanitization, recoverable rekey
Codex xhigh round 2:
- Detect the LUKS backing device by walking the root's device tree, not only
the cmdline cryptdevice=; reset/first-boot now re-key roots reached via
rd.luks/crypttab too, instead of silently leaving the seller's slots valid.
- Sanitize the retained @factory baseline (accounts, /etc/shadow, machine
identity) during a full reset: the new wheel user could otherwise mount it
to recover the seller's data, and a second reset would restore the account.
- Re-key the disk recoverably: rebuild the no-auto-unlock UKI before killing
the throwaway slot or destroying the staged key, and restore the keyfile if
that rebuild fails, so a retry with a different password can never leave the
disk locked to the first attempt's password.
- Roll back a degraded reset's live-root auto-unlock material if its boot
rebuild fails, instead of leaving it for a later rebuild to embed.
- Treat a missing current-machine limine entry as stale so a retry after a
failed rebuild repairs the config instead of clearing OEM state over it.
- Erase fingerprint enrollments (/var/lib/fprint) in degraded wipes.
- Remove the resume-offset drop-in too when recreating the factory swapfile,
so the rebuilt UKI gets a correct offset.
- Pin first-boot retries to the account the first attempt created.

* Expose factory reset in the Setup menu
Add a 'Reset Computer' entry under Setup (Omarchy's Settings menu, where OS
factory resets conventionally live), guarded to btrfs roots and launched in a
floating terminal. omarchy-reset-computer now self-elevates via sudo so the
menu entry needs no sudo prefix, forwarding the caller's gum theme env as
env arguments so styling survives an env_reset sudoers. The typed 'reset'
confirmation and the sudo password prompt remain as the guards against
accidental triggering.

* Defer keyboard selection to first boot for OEM installs
The OEM first-boot setup now runs a keyboard step before the user form,
mirroring the ISO configurator: it loads the chosen layout on the live VT so
the password (and the LUKS re-key that follows) are typed under it, and
persists it with systemd-firstboot so the installed system gets both the
console KEYMAP and the XKB layout Hyprland reads — exactly what a normal
install writes. Layouts localectl doesn't know keep the default, same as the
installer.
This lets the OEM operator set nothing user-specific: the machine's owner
picks their keyboard alongside their account at first boot.

* Rename factory-reset commands to omarchy-system-factory-reset[-finish]
omarchy-reset-computer -> omarchy-system-factory-reset
omarchy-factory-wipe -> omarchy-system-factory-reset-finish
(and its systemd unit, log path, and temp mount to match)
Pure rename: every reference — the Setup menu action, the first-boot finish
service the reset stages and enables, the oem-setup ordering/gating, comments,
and the menu test — moves together, with no behavior change.

* Rename OEM vocabulary to provisioning (runtime)
Commands unify under the provisioning family:
omarchy-oem-setup → omarchy-provision-owner
omarchy-finalize-user → omarchy-provision-user
omarchy-first-run → omarchy-provision-first-run
And the deferred-provisioning state/vocabulary replaces 'OEM':
/var/lib/omarchy/oem/ → /var/lib/omarchy/provisioning/
/etc/omarchy/oem.key → /etc/omarchy/provisioning.key
install/oem/ → install/provisioning/
OMARCHY_SETUP_CONTEXT=oem-firstboot → provision-owner
omarchy-setup-system/-hardware --oem → --defer-provisioning
All callers (provision-first-run→provision-user, autostart, factory-reset
staging the provisioning units, the group-recording scripts) and comments
move together.

Updates routinely replace the shell's QML, and a stale process can
lazy-load new files into old code. Restarting at the end of every
omarchy update removes the need for migrations to restart the shell
or defer one with the restart-shell-required marker: the login-time
migration path already runs a fresh shell that hot-reloads shell.json.

The retired omarchy-update-user-notify.path stays loaded in sessions that
started before the update removing it, and pacman writes the migrations
directory mid-transaction, so it fired a critical toast for migrations that
omarchy-migrate was about to apply a step later. Migration 1785095882 stops
that watcher, but migrations run after pacman, so it lands 11 seconds too
late to prevent the toast it exists to retire.
Check the lock omarchy-update holds for its whole pipeline instead of
trusting that no trigger exists. That covers the stale watcher and anything
added later: during an update every pending migration is by definition
already being applied. The check repeats after waiting for the notification
server, which is long enough for an update to start underneath it.
Only this user's runtime directory is read, never the /tmp path the updater
falls back to without XDG_RUNTIME_DIR. A shared lock file belongs to whoever
created it first, so honouring it would let one user silence another user's
notification; a redundant toast is the better failure.
The sleep inhibitor now starts with the lock descriptor closed. It outlives
the step that starts it, so an update killed before restore_update_inhibitors
left it holding the flock indefinitely. That already blocked later updates,
and now that the notifier reads the same lock it would have silenced
migration notices at every login.

omarchy-migrate-notify.service is a Type=oneshot wanted by
graphical-session.target, and systemd complements a target's Wants= with an
implicit After=, so the target waited for the notifier to exit. The notifier
does not exit quickly: it sends the notification through systemd-run --scope,
which is synchronous, and omarchy-notification-send -a blocks until the user
clicks. The target stayed in activating for as long as the toast was up.
wayland-wm-app-daemon.service is After=graphical-session.target and nothing
wants it, so uwsm-app starts it on demand. Clicking the notification runs
omarchy-launch-floating-terminal-with-presentation, which execs uwsm-app,
which blocks on a systemctl --user restart of that daemon -- a job queued
behind the very target the clicked notifier was holding open. The terminal
never opened; uwsm-app gave up on its own pipe timeout instead.
Declaring After= on the wanted unit suppresses the implicit dependency rather
than forming a cycle, so the target is reached without waiting and the
notifier runs behind it.

omarchy-update-user-notify.path watched /usr/share/omarchy/migrations, but
pacman writes that directory during every update, including the blessed
omarchy update, which runs omarchy-migrate a step later. The watcher fired a
critical notification for the migrations the update was already applying in
the visible terminal. A watcher cannot tell that apart from a bypassed
pacman -Syu, so the only trigger that never collides with a running update is
a once-per-login check.
The service that already ran at graphical-session.target is now the whole
mechanism, renamed after the command it runs. That is also all the second-user
case needs: markers are per-user, so anyone who did not run the update finds
them missing at their next login.
Login timing means the toast can be sent before the shell has claimed
org.freedesktop.Notifications, so the notifier waits for a live server first.
The wait is omarchy-first-run's, lifted into omarchy-notification-wait rather
than duplicated.
The package keeps omarchy-update-user-notify.service as a symlink onto the new
unit. Existing users hold an absolute wants symlink to the old path, and the
migration that repoints it only runs for users who run an update, which is the
opposite of who the notifier is for.
