David Heinemeier HanssonandClaude Fable 5 f619c397f2 Make status indicators event-driven instead of polling
The indicators widget broadcast a refresh every 2s, fanning out to four
status subprocesses (nightlight, idle, reminder, screen-recording), and
NightLight/StayAwake each ran an additional 5s poll. On an idle desktop
this was the dominant source of process churn (~33 of ~53 forks/sec in a
VM). The state-changing commands already push `omarchy.indicators
refresh` over IPC, so the polling was redundant.

Drop the 2s broadcast and the two 5s timers; indicators now refresh at
startup and on the IPC push. Also fix three callers that pushed to the
wrong target `Indicators` instead of `omarchy.indicators` (screen
recording, notification silencing, and the omarchy-shell help example) —
those pushes silently failed and only appeared to work because the poll
masked them.

Idle fork rate drops ~53/s to ~20/s.

Usage: omarchy-shell [-q] <target> <method> [args...]
Forwards an IPC call to the running Omarchy shell. The shell is expected
to already be running; this command does not start it.
Options:
-q Quiet best-effort mode. Suppress output and return success even when
the shell, target, method, or arguments are unavailable.
Examples:
omarchy-shell shell ping
omarchy-shell -q omarchy.indicators refresh
omarchy-shell shell listPlugins
omarchy-shell shell toggle omarchy.menu '{"menu":"root"}'
