6ee243cc37 Split the end-user omarchy skill into topic guides (#6602)
* Split the end-user omarchy skill into topic guides

Move default/omarchy-skill to default/agents/skills/omarchy and break the
monolithic SKILL.md into on-demand topic files for Hyprland config, shell
plugins, theming, and hooks. Update the skill symlink wiring, relink
existing installs through a migration, and correct claims that had drifted
from the implementation: plugin hot-reload, terminal reload, menu
customization, refresh scopes, theme overlays, background locations, hook
timing, and the packaged (not git-managed) system directory.

* Add capture and contributing guides to the omarchy skill

Cover screenshots, screen recording, OCR text capture, and LocalSend or
Taildrop sharing, plus how to route bug reports, suggestions, and support
questions upstream with diagnostics and captures of the problem attached.

* Scope Hyprland reload guidance to the Lua config files

hyprsunset.conf and xdph.conf are read by separate processes, so hyprctl
neither applies nor validates them. Document restarting hyprsunset after
editing its config, including in the night light example.

Reporting Issues and Submitting PRs

Read this when the user wants to report an Omarchy bug, suggest a feature, or contribute a fix upstream.

Omarchy lives at https://github.com/basecamp/omarchy. Route requests to the right place:

Filing a Good Bug Report

The bug template asks for system details (CPU, GPU, Omarchy version), a description with steps to reproduce, and diagnostics. Gather them:

omarchy version

# Generate the diagnostic log (also written to /tmp/omarchy-debug.log)
omarchy debug --no-sudo --print

# Interactive variant: `omarchy debug` offers to upload the log to
# logs.omarchy.org (expires after 24h) and prints a shareable URL to
# include in the issue.

Capture the problem on screen. A screenshot or short recording of the bug is often worth more than the description — see capture.md for omarchy capture screenshot and omarchy screenrecord. Keep recordings short and focused on the misbehavior. GitHub issue attachments are added by drag-and-drop in the web form, so save the capture and hand the user the file path to attach (gh cannot upload media).

For screen-recording failures specifically, rerun with OMARCHY_SCREENRECORD_DEBUG=true and attach /tmp/omarchy-screenrecord.log.

File the issue with gh when available:

gh issue create --repo basecamp/omarchy --title "..." --body "..."

Include: what happened, what was expected, steps to reproduce, system details, the debug log URL (or attached log), and the capture.

Submitting a PR

Never develop against /usr/share/omarchy. Clone a working copy instead:

gh repo fork basecamp/omarchy --clone
cd omarchy

Follow the repository's own AGENTS.md for style, testing, and commit conventions — it is the authority on contributions. Keep commits atomic, run ./test/all before pushing, and open the PR with gh pr create. A PR that fixes a visual problem should include before/after captures (again, see capture.md).
