Clones of omarchy.clock become dhh.clock instead of local.clock, so a
published clone carries its author's namespace. The clone command owns
the id derivation and gains --edit to open the result in $EDITOR, and
the shell exposes clonedFrom in listPlugins so the plugin menu no longer
reconstructs clone ids.

* 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.

omarchy-restart-shell now kills by config dir via quickshell kill and
relaunches with --no-duplicate, polling kill until every instance is
gone since kill returns without waiting and -n silently exits if one
remains. The locked-session refusal reads Hyprland monitor state alone,
which covers a hung shell holding the lock; the redundant shell IPC
probe, availability guards, and omarchy-shell path indirection are gone.
Shell IPC calls now time out (2s default, OMARCHY_SHELL_IPC_TIMEOUT to
override) so probing an unresponsive shell fails fast instead of
hanging the caller.
omarchy-hyprland-launch checks dispatch output for "ok" rather than the
exit code, which is 0 even on Lua errors, so a failed dispatch falls
through to the bash -lc fallback instead of silently launching nothing.
The Quattro upgrade cutover delegates to omarchy-restart-shell instead
of carrying its own copy of the lock check, pkill, and readiness loop.

Position the bar by dragging (or click-and-holding) empty bar space
toward a screen edge, with a ghost slab previewing the target edge.
With drag for position and double-click for transparency, the bar
config panel, its inline gear button, and the omarchy-launch-bar-settings
CLI are no longer needed.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The omarchy-bar command had grown three overlapping ways to inspect the
bar (show/layout/list/options, plus selected/active/available/widgets
aliases) and mixed layout mutation in with bar-level settings. Untangle
it into two focused commands:
- omarchy-bar keeps only the bar-level settings that write shell.json:
use, reset, position, transparent, and settings. reset now delegates
to `use omarchy.bar` rather than duplicating the del(.bar.id) write.
- omarchy-bar-plugin owns all layout mutation: add, move, remove, set,
and replace, with the placement flags and jq resolve/anchor helpers.
`omarchy bar plugin ...` routes here via the dispatcher.
Drop the inspection commands entirely: the layout is visible on the bar,
the config is shell.json, and widget/option ids come from
`omarchy plugin list`. Nothing consumed the show output programmatically
except tests. This also removes omarchy-bar-position, whose jq write was
a duplicate of `omarchy bar position`.
Strip environment-invariant guards (require_command, require_omarchy_path)
that defended against jq or OMARCHY_PATH being absent — neither happens on
a real system. Keep the user-input validation (--section/--index) and the
atomic shell.json write.
Update callers (service install/remove, refresh-shell, plugin-clone,
plugin enable), keybindings, the menu, tests, and docs to the new split.
A plugin is now just a git repo cloned into ~/.config/omarchy/plugins/<id>/.
That one idea replaces the entire homegrown package-manager half of the
plugin suite: trusted-source registry, clone cache, catalog scanning,
semver comparison, staging dirs, and timestamped backups — 1,025 lines
across five binaries whose jobs git already does.
Gone:
- omarchy-plugin-source: the trusted-repo registry (sources.json) and its
clone cache under ~/.cache/omarchy/plugin-sources/. The trust decision
now happens once, at add time, with the same unsandboxed-code warning.
- omarchy-plugin-scan + omarchy-plugin-available: the catalog machinery
over cached clones. Discovery belongs on a web page, not in the CLI.
- omarchy-plugin-add: copying folders out of cached source clones with
hand-rolled staging and .bak backups. Replaced by a git clone.
- omarchy-plugin-update: manifest version comparison via sort -V and
re-installs. Replaced by fetch + diff + fast-forward; git is the version
and git is the backup.
- omarchy-plugin-remove and omarchy-plugin-edit as separate binaries:
folded into omarchy-plugin, much slimmer.
The consolidated omarchy-plugin now handles the full lifecycle:
- add <git-url>: warn, clone into a dot-prefixed staging dir (invisible
to the plugin scanner), validate, then move into place named by the
manifest id. Plugins land disabled — enabling is the single consent
moment, replacing the old review-before-copy flow.
- update [id | --all]: fetch origin HEAD, show the diff (delta when
available), confirm, fast-forward. Updates are code the shell will run,
so the result is re-validated and rolled back to ORIG_HEAD if upstream
turned invalid (e.g. smuggled a symlink).
- remove [id]: git checkouts are deleted outright since upstream keeps
the history; hand-made plugin folders still get a backup, and dev
symlinks are just unlinked.
- edit [id]: opens the user plugin directory in a shell.
All commands keep the interactive/unattended split: gum prompts in a
terminal, hard refusal without --yes otherwise, so scripts and agents
never hang on a hidden prompt.
Kept as siblings: omarchy-plugin-catalog (omarchy-bar reads it),
omarchy-plugin-validate (the security boundary, now pruning .git from its
symlink scan since installs are git checkouts), and omarchy-plugin-clone
(local development of built-in widgets, a separate concern).
Trade-offs accepted: one repo = one plugin (no more multi-plugin source
repos), and ref pinning or branch switching is no longer a CLI feature —
an installed plugin is a plain checkout, so that is ordinary git in the
plugin directory.
None of the removed machinery ever shipped: it existed only on this
branch, so there is no migration. The net effect is 11 scripts / 2,040
lines down to 4 scripts / 1,080 lines, and one less concept for users to
learn — everyone already knows what a git repo is.

omarchy-plugin mixed plugin lifecycle, clone/edit, and bar-layout mutation.
The bar layout was mutated by two separate engines (an embedded Python
mutate_bar here and jq in omarchy-config-shell-bar), each with its own
manifest walker.
- omarchy-plugin is now a ~220-line router; clone and edit move to
omarchy-plugin-clone and omarchy-plugin-edit, matching the existing
plugin-{source,add,update,remove,available,validate,scan} sibling pattern
- omarchy-config-shell-bar is replaced by omarchy-bar, the single bar engine
(show/layout/list/options/use/reset/add/move/remove/set/replace/position/
transparent/settings) with one jq pipeline; the Python mutate_bar and its
python3 dependency are gone
- omarchy-plugin-catalog is the shared manifest scanner used by omarchy-bar
(widget/option enumeration, add validation) and omarchy-plugin-clone
(source enumeration), replacing three find|jq re-implementations
- service install/remove and refresh-shell call omarchy-bar; docs and tests
updated to the new command surface
Let users add trusted plugin source repos and add/update/remove plugins
from them, alongside the existing in-shell plugin commands:
omarchy plugin source <add|list|remove|refresh>
omarchy plugin available
omarchy plugin add | update | remove | validate
Each command is interactive (gum/fzf pickers, confirmation, an update
diff) in a TTY and fully flag-driven with --yes for scripts and agents.
Sources live in ~/.config/omarchy/plugins/sources.json and clone into
~/.cache/omarchy/plugin-sources/. The installer only copies files,
validates manifests against the shell's schema, and toggles enabled
state over IPC -- it never runs plugin code, hooks, or sudo.
Also guard 'plugin bar add' so only known bar-widget ids enter the
layout (rejecting typos/non-widgets like a stray '--help').
Clock and daytime were near-duplicates with different click semantics
(clock toggles between formats on left-click and opens the timezone
selector on right-click; daytime was non-pressable with a hover tooltip).
Standardize on clock, since it's the more capable of the two.
- Delete widgets/daytime.qml and its FirstPartyWidgets entry.
- Migrate shell-defaults.json, shell.qml's builtin fallback, Bar.qml's
fallback bar config, and the settings panel's builtin defaults so the
center anchor and center-section entry both reference "clock".
- Rename the daytimeSettings form to clockSettings and rephrase
"Tooltip format" → "Alternate format (click to toggle)" so the field
label matches clock's actual behavior.
- Update the gallery dropdown options and bar/README docs.
