SSID redaction lives only in the event log (=redact_event=, gated on =redact_ssid=, default off). So a connection name (usually the SSID) appears in the clear in the link-step evidence and in every =--json= consumer — the copyable report is exactly the text a user pastes into a bug report. Secrets (PSK/password/token/portal URL) are already stripped, so this is names, not credentials: Minor severity, graded on severity alone per the privacy carve-out. -The support machinery was deliberately kept for this task: =layout-navigate= and =layout-resize= retain their scrolling branches, =waybar-layout= still renders the scrolling state, and the unbound legacy =cycle-layout= script still lists it. Re-enabling is two lines: add =scrolling= back to =LAYOUTS= in =layout-cycle= and restore a direct-jump bind (the old chord is taken now — pick a new one). The =tests/layout-cycle= suite pins the disabled state and will go red on re-enable, which is the reminder to update it. +Split out of the 2026-07-11 net-doctor-expansion spec review: that spec's new rival-manager/keyfile-perms verdicts keep parity with this pre-existing behavior rather than half-solve it. Fix shape: extend redaction to cover the connection name + keyfile basename across the copyable report and =--json= (one systemic pass, not per-verdict), with a redaction test.

Adds the control-plane cluster (rival-manager / nm-masked / keyfile-perms) and a sharper auth verdict to the shipped net doctor (=~/.dotfiles/net/=). Archsetup owns the dotfiles work end to end — edit, test, commit, and push in =~/.dotfiles=, then drop an inbox note. Phases 1-2 are gated on the shared cross-panel run-time privilege model, which doesn't exist yet; Phase 0 builds now. +*** 2026-07-11 Sat @ 02:47:47 -0500 Built the read-only control-plane probe +New module =net/src/net/control_plane.py= plus =diag.py= wiring, on dotfiles main (=21ca3ff=, pushed). =net diagnose= now carries a =control_plane= key in its envelope with three read-only signals: NetworkManager state (masked/failed/stopped/active, finer than the plain =is-active= the ladder used), any rival manager active alongside NM (dhcpcd, systemd-networkd, iwd via =systemctl is-active=), and the active profile's keyfile permissions (=stat= under an env-overridable =NET_NM_CONNECTIONS= root, default =/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections=). Detection only: no classifier change, no new step, no bearing on =overall=. Surfaced via =net diag --json=. The masked/failed read also runs in the nmcli-down early-return path, or a masked NM would short-circuit before the probe. Every read bounded through =cmd.run='s timeout; degrades to unknown / no-rival / None on an unreadable tool or unstattable file, so a probe that can't see never invents a fault. As a normal user the real 0700 root:root dir is unstattable, so the keyfile signal reads unknown (readable only under root, e.g. the doctor's privileged path). 21 new tests, full =make test= green; =/review-code= approved (two Minor items, both Phase 1 concerns already tracked in the spec: link-scoping the rivals and guarding the keyfile path in the chmod fix). Inbox note sent to dotfiles. +*** DOING [#B] Phase 1 — control-plane verdicts + privilege model +Unblocked now that panelkit ships. =classify= gains =rival-manager=/=nm-masked=/=keyfile-perms= (all =fixable=), ordered ahead of the generic not-running rule, with the masked check reachable in the NM-down early-return path. Fixes register as =VERBS= + =ACTIONS= (=disable-rival=/=unmask-nm=/=chmod-keyfile=), each narrowly scoped. Live verification needs a real rival/masked/bad-keyfile state (a VM or a deliberately-broken host), so not solo. +**** 2026-07-11 Sat @ 04:32:06 -0500 nm-masked verdict shipped + first panelkit integration +On dotfiles main (=d73eba6=, pushed). The clean, unambiguous verdict of the three, done first to prove the panelkit-in-net rails: =classify= reads =control_plane.nm_state=; on =masked= it returns a fixable =unmask-nm= verdict (=remedy_class="privileged"=) ahead of the generic nm-service rule (=nm-restart= can't start a masked unit). New priv verb =unmask-nm= (=systemctl unmask NetworkManager=), =repair_unmask_nm= (unmask → start → verify), narration entry. The doctor resolves a privileged verdict through =panelkit.resolve()= before running: can't-elevate (GUI, no passwordless, no tty) degrades to the manual guide instead of attempting; existing tiers (no remedy_class) run unchanged. The =net= shim + test add =panelkit/src= to sys.path. Design call shipped (flagged for Craig): CLI =net doctor --fix= is the deliberate act satisfying the Confirm floor, so no CLI prompt added; panelkit contributes the run/prompt/guide degradation on the CLI; the GUI arm-press stays its confirm (panel wiring pending). 765 net tests + 65 suites green, review-code clean. Inbox note sent. +**** 2026-07-11 Sat @ 05:16:24 -0500 rival-manager + keyfile-perms verdicts shipped +On dotfiles main (=c9f8604=, pushed). Craig approved proceeding with the default precedence. =classify= adds =disable-rival= (rival dhcpcd/networkd/iwd active + a failing link) and =chmod-keyfile= (bad-perms keyfile + a failing link), both =remedy_class="privileged"= through the same panelkit gate. PRECEDENCE settled: both gate on a local-link symptom (never nag next to a working link), sit behind rfkill/service (more fundamental) and ahead of the generic reset (naming the cause beats a blind reconnect); tested (rfkill beats rival, rival beats reset). Priv verbs =disable-rival= (three-unit allowlist), =chmod-keyfile=/=chown-keyfile= (paths validated under system-connections, no traversal). Repairs re-derive their target (=active_rivals= / the active connection). =fake-systemctl= gained a state dir so a disable flips the re-check. 782 net tests + 65 suites green, review-code clean. Two coverage edges deferred to the VM: the keyfile fix's root-owned pass (only reproduces under root), and whether disable-rival needs a follow-on reset to restore the link. All three Phase 1 verdicts now fake-complete; VM live-verification is the remaining piece (see the sub-task). +**** TODO Net Phase 1 live verification — run the scenario harness against a VM +The harness is BUILT (archsetup =a364c1e=): =scripts/testing/net-scenarios/{10-nm-masked,20-rival-manager,30-keyfile-perms}.sh= (break/fix/assert + the expected diagnose verdict) and =run-net-scenarios.sh= (rsyncs net+panelkit into a target over ssh, drives the scenarios). Scenario logic reviewed; the ssh transport plumbing is UNEXERCISED (marked first-draft) and wants a shakeout on the first real run. What remains needs Craig: a booted VM (a real kernel + network stack — NM does NOT run reliably in nspawn, so a container only shows the mask-symlink/keyfile-mode half, not "NM active") with NetworkManager + dhcpcd installed, reachable over ssh as root. Then =run-net-scenarios.sh --target root@HOST --profile <saved-profile>=. The two live questions: disable-rival was already chained to a follow-on reset (=be15a81=), so the run confirms whether the reset fires or NM auto-recovers; and the keyfile root-owned pass (only reproduces under root). The by-hand equivalent is the "Manual testing and validation" → "Net doctor privileged fixes" checklist. +*** 2026-07-11 Sat @ 06:31:29 -0500 Built the sharpened auth verdict +On dotfiles main (=12e3e76=, pushed). =gather_context= derives an auth cause on an auth failure from the saved profile's key-mgmt + the scanned SECURITY flags for the SSID (not GENERAL.REASON, which only marks *that* auth failed): sae / hidden / enterprise / generic. =classify= turns sae and hidden into =fixable= Privileged profile-modifies (=key-mgmt sae= + PMF, or the hidden flag) routed through =panelkit.resolve()= like the Phase 1 control-plane verdicts; enterprise and generic stay =needs-user-action= with a cause-named message. Two new priv verbs (=conn-sae=, =conn-hidden=, uuid-validated single =nmcli connection modify= commands) + =repair_auth_sae=/=repair_auth_hidden=, each chained into a reset (FIX_CHAINS) so NM reconnects with the corrected profile. Hidden fires only on a non-empty scan missing the SSID, so a failed scan can't fabricate it. Tightened the =fake-nmcli= key-mgmt hook to require the =-g= prefix so the conn-sae modify isn't read back as a get_value. Pairwise (reason × profile-state) covered in =TestAuthCauseDerivation=. 813 net tests + 65 suites green, review-code Approve, voice. Inbox note sent. Live half (real WPA3/hidden profile-modify) is the VM/manual checklist. +*** TODO [#B] Phase 3 — flip the net spec to IMPLEMENTED +On v1 completion: flip the spec's status heading to IMPLEMENTED (dated history line + mirror) and log the vNext items (flaky/drops cluster, DoT/DNSSEC verdict, profile hygiene) to todo.org. + +** TODO [#B] Bt doctor expansion v1 — build the READY spec :feature:dotfiles:bluetooth: :PROPERTIES: -:LAST_REVIEWED: 2026-06-09 +:SPEC_ID: 3d4d61c4-e5df-44e9-b8e0-40b31452c3f7 :END: -The wlogout exit menu renders its buttons taller than they are wide on velox, so the cells read as vertical rectangles instead of squares.

Related: the [#D] VERIFY about wlogout sizing across displays. +Build the [[file:docs/specs/2026-07-11-bt-doctor-expansion-spec.org][bt doctor expansion]] (DOING). Adds a dmesg firmware-hint probe (names the missing blob on a no-adapter fault) and a boot-enablement probe (catches an adapter disabled at boot) to the shipped bt doctor (=~/.dotfiles/bluetooth/=). Phase 2 is gated on the shared cross-panel privilege model; Phases 0-1 build now. Archsetup owns the dotfiles work end to end. +*** 2026-07-11 Sat @ 03:06:32 -0500 Built the two read-only probes +New module =bluetooth/src/bt/probes.py= plus =doctor.py= wiring, on dotfiles main (=d19fdca=, pushed). Two reads the diagnose chain never did: =firmware_hint()= scans the current boot's kernel log for per-vendor firmware-load failures (Intel ibt-*.sfi, MediaTek BT_RAM_CODE, Realtek rtl_bt, Broadcom .hcd, Qualcomm QCA), returning the named blob via a bounded =cmd.run(journalctl -k)= that reuses the =doctor.py:84= precedent; =boot_enablement()= reads three boot-persistence signals (bluez AutoEnable from main.conf [Policy], =systemctl is-enabled bluetooth=, whether TLP lists bluetooth in =DEVICES_TO_DISABLE_ON_STARTUP=). =diagnose()= gates the firmware read to the no-adapter branch and the boot read to the soft-blocked/powered-off branch, so a healthy run reads neither; the raw signals ride a new =probes= key that =doctor()= carries into =--json=. Detection only: no verdict, formatter, or repair change (that's Phase 1). Every read degrades to None on an unreadable tool/file, so a probe that can't see never invents a fault. AutoEnable absent/unset reads None, not false, matching bluez's compiled default of true, so only an explicit =AutoEnable=false= is the fault. New env roots for tests (=BT_MAIN_CONF=, =BT_TLP_CONF=, defaulting to absent temp paths in the Sandbox base so no test reads real /etc); =fake-journalctl= branches on =-k=, =fake-systemctl= answers =is-enabled bluetooth=. 125 bt tests, full =make test= green; =/review-code= approved (no Critical/Important; one Minor noting the firmware read also covers the btctl-unavailable branch, harmless). Inbox note sent to dotfiles. +*** 2026-07-11 Sat @ 03:16:59 -0500 Built the firmware-hint Guide verdict +On dotfiles main (=f05a9b4=, pushed). The no-adapter step now names the blob: a new =_no_adapter_step= consults =probes.firmware_hint()= on a genuine no-adapter fault and, on a per-vendor signature match, sets =evidence= to "no Bluetooth adapter found — <Vendor> firmware <blob> failed to load" and =next_action= to "update linux-firmware and reboot", tagged with a new =code="no-adapter-firmware"= so a =--json= consumer can branch without string-matching. A clean log keeps the generic hardware/driver verdict. A Guide, not a repair: the step carries no =repair= action, so =--fix= never touches it, and it needs no privilege model (so Phase 1 lands independently of the shared cross-panel model). A missing =bluetoothctl= (=BtctlError=) short-circuits before the firmware read, so the verdict fires only on a real no-adapter fault, not a broken install — this also tightened Phase 0 (which read the log on both None branches) to the genuine no-adapter case. =_mk= gained a uniform =code= key (default None) added to every diagnose step, mirroring the existing =repair= key; no test asserts an exact step key-set, verified. =format_doctor_human= already renders =evidence=/=next_action=, so no formatter change. 133 bt tests (+8), full =make test= green; =/review-code= clean. Inbox note sent to dotfiles. +*** 2026-07-11 Sat @ 06:48:21 -0500 Built the persistent-power verdict + fix +On dotfiles main (=d7d859f=, pushed). =_powered_step= consumes the bt Phase 0 boot-enablement probe: AutoEnable explicitly false, service disabled at boot, or TLP listing bluetooth → =powered-off-persistent= (code + evidence naming the cause) carrying the =persist-power= repair; absent/unset config reads as auto-enable-on (bluez default) → the plain =power-on=, so healthy machines can't false-positive. The =persist-power= repair fixes only the causes set (AutoEnable=true, =systemctl enable bluetooth=, drop bluetooth from the TLP list), powers the adapter on now, and verifies each cause cleared. Config edits are pure idempotent text transforms in a new =bootconf= module (comments preserved), staged and installed via a fixed-destination =cp= verb so the write needs root but the mutation is unit-testable. =priv.py= gained three narrow verbs (=enable-bluetooth=, =write-main-conf=, =write-tlp-conf=). The repair is Privileged and resolves through =panelkit= before running: can't-elevate degrades to the guide. The bt shim gained =panelkit= on its path. 287 bt tests + 65 make-test suites green, review-code Approve, voice. Inbox note sent. Live half (real reboot persistence) is the VM/manual checklist. +*** TODO [#B] Phase 3 — flip the bt spec to IMPLEMENTED +On v1 completion: flip the spec's status heading to IMPLEMENTED (dated history line + mirror) and log the vNext items (stale-bond signature, connection-parameter hints, bt-audio-profile expansion) to todo.org. + +** TODO [#D] Maintenance console vNext :feature: +Deferred from the [[file:docs/specs/2026-07-07-maintenance-console-spec.org][spec]] (v1 ships determinate remedies only): AI/workflow assistance on read-only metrics (the vLater tier — failed-unit diagnosis, journal-error fix suggestions, OOM investigation); SIGKILL escalation for TERM-survivors on the KILL lever; live streaming meters on evidence rows where a count could be a level. + +** TODO [#D] Retention-repair remedy unreachable from the panel GUI :bug:dotfiles: +snapshot_retention_repair (WRITE SANE LIMITS — =snapper -c <config> set-config TIMELINE_CREATE=yes TIMELINE_LIMIT_*=<TOML values>=) sits in the maint remedy table but is wired into no GUI layer (no reference in panel.py, viewmodel.py, or gui.py) — it's reachable only via =maint doctor review= / =maint fix=. Worse, the REVIEW & FIX roster's wording for item-bearing remedies says "per-item — on its subpanel", which for this remedy points at a key that doesn't exist. Found 2026-07-08 while walking the SNAPSHOTS subpanel with Craig. + +Two fix shapes, decide at work time: (1) wire a digest key — e.g. on the timeline row when the config's installed TIMELINE_LIMIT_* drift from the TOML values (needs the probe to read the installed limits for comparison); or (2) keep it CLI-only deliberately and special-case the roster wording for remedies with no panel key ("CLI only — maint fix"). Option 2 is a few lines; option 1 makes limit drift visible on the board, which is the 2026-05-26 pile-up's root cause.

Consequences: the maint scenario harness's zfs lane (Phase 12) is filtered but unexercised, and a real zfs bare-metal install via archangel would plausibly hit the same wall. Diagnosis needs the in-VM pacman/DKMS logs (rerun create-base-vm.sh with =--keep=-style access or pull /var/log from the ISO session before teardown).

Lives in the hyprland tier (=dotfiles/hyprland/.config/waybar/= + a backing script in =hyprland/.local/bin/=). TDD the backing script per testing.md. +The model: a doctor resolves its privilege at run time from three signals — passwordless sudo available (=sudo -n true=, which never hangs), a tty to prompt at, and whether it is the GUI panel. Four remedy classes: Auto (user-scope, reversible), Privileged (needs sudo — runs where passwordless, prompts on a CLI tty, degrades to Guide in a GUI with neither), Reboot-tail (run the applicable part, then instruct the reboot), and Guide (physical/BIOS/wait-for-upstream, nothing to run).

Same shape-changes-with-state idea as the auto-dim indicator. +The shared helper is built (see the dated entry below). What remains is per-panel adoption: wire each doctor's remedies through =panelkit.privmodel.resolve()= and audit them against the Confirm/Arm floor, and reconcile maint's =priv.py= build/fire table with the model rather than leaving its implicit always-passwordless assumption.

New =panelkit= package (=panelkit/src/panelkit/=): pure library code in the dotfiles tree, no CLI, no stow package — a consumer reaches it by adding =panelkit/src= to =sys.path= alongside its own =<panel>/src= and =from panelkit import privmodel=. Self-contained (its own =cmd.py=) so a panel plus panelkit stays a coherent unit (keeps the pluggable-panel option open). =privmodel=: four classes (=auto=/=privileged=/=reboot-tail=/=guide=), =resolve(remedy_class, ctx)= → a =Resolution= (=RUN=/=PROMPT=/=GUIDE_ONLY=, =confirm=, =reboot_after=, =reason=) over a =PrivContext= (passwordless via =sudo -n true=, tty, is-GUI).

Recommendation: keep nautilus (only candidate that's Wayland-native, libadwaita-dark native, and actively developed); add yazi as the Wayland TUI (v26.5.6, monthly releases, sixel previews work in foot with zero scripting, zoxide built in — it has matured substantially since the problematic 2026-02 try). ranger upstream is effectively frozen (still 1.9.4, 700+ open issues), so porting it to the Wayland machines is the one option the evidence rules out.

Back up =/etc/bluetooth/main.conf= first. +**** AutoEnable=false → persistent verdict → fix → survives reboot +What we're verifying: the full loop — break persistence, confirm the verdict, fix, reboot, confirm it stuck. +#+begin_src sh :results output +sudo cp /etc/bluetooth/main.conf /etc/bluetooth/main.conf.bak +# Force the deliberate disable and power the adapter off: +printf '[Policy]\nAutoEnable=false\n' | sudo tee -a /etc/bluetooth/main.conf +bluetoothctl power off +bt doctor --json | python3 -c 'import sys,json; d=json.load(sys.stdin); p=[s for s in d["steps"] if s["id"]=="powered"][0]; print(p["code"], "|", p["evidence"])' +#+end_src +- Expected (diagnose): the powered step reads code =powered-off-persistent= and the evidence names AutoEnable=false (not the plain "adapter is powered off"). +#+begin_src sh :results output +bt doctor --fix --json | python3 -c 'import sys,json; d=json.load(sys.stdin); print("attempts=",[a["id"] for a in d["attempts"]])' +grep -i autoenable /etc/bluetooth/main.conf +bluetoothctl show | grep -i powered +#+end_src +- Expected (fix): attempts include persist-power; main.conf now reads =AutoEnable=true=; the adapter is powered on now. +- Reboot the machine. +#+begin_src sh :results output +bluetoothctl show | grep -i powered # after the reboot, before touching anything +#+end_src +Expected: the adapter is powered on straight out of the reboot (AutoEnable=true held). Restore the backup if desired: =sudo mv /etc/bluetooth/main.conf.bak /etc/bluetooth/main.conf=. +**** service-disabled and TLP causes (optional variants) +What we're verifying: the other two persistent causes are named and fixed the same way. +- Service variant: =sudo systemctl disable bluetooth= (leave it running this boot), power the adapter off, then =bt doctor --json= should read =powered-off-persistent=; =--fix= should re-enable it (check =systemctl is-enabled bluetooth=). +- TLP variant (only if TLP is installed): add =bluetooth= to =DEVICES_TO_DISABLE_ON_STARTUP= in =/etc/tlp.conf=, power off, diagnose (persistent), =--fix=, confirm bluetooth is dropped from the list. +Expected: each variant names the persistent verdict and the fix clears exactly that cause, leaving the others untouched. + +*** Maintenance console — in-person checklist +Re-homed here by the 2026-07-09 audit: this was a second top-level "Manual testing and validation" parent. One parent, per verification.md. Priority and the :test: tag now live on the parent. +Promoted from the build parent when it closed 2026-07-08 — Craig's checklist, runs once in person. Collects everything not agent-verifiable; populate per verification.md as phases land. Known so far: panel look-and-feel vs the E5 prototype (Craig's eyeball); arm-press wording reads right at the moment of use; results-wall readability during a real doctor run; a real UPDATE through the armed guard (and the TTY path once); REBOOT offer after an update; velox in-person glyph check (battery %, charging glyph, low-charge red); SET 80% charge limit sticks across a charge cycle; KILL on a real memory hog. +Phase 8 additions: subpanel scroll position survives an arm press on a long digest (MAINT_PANEL_FIXTURE=bad, PACKAGES band, scroll into the 51-orphan list, press REMOVE — the list should stay put and the key read REMOVE?); a KEEP on a real orphan dims it into the kept section and UNKEEP restores it; MERGE on a needs-merge pacnew opens pacdiff in a foot terminal. +Phase 9a additions: MARK KNOWN on a real journal group (ratio's wpa_supplicant bgscan spam is the standing candidate) — arm shows the identifier + sample wording, fire writes curation.toml, the next re-scan drops the group into KNOWN NOISE with "marked <date>", and UNMARK restores it to SIGNAL; OPEN JOURNAL opens journalctl -p 3 -b in a foot terminal; a failed unit's RESTART on a real unit (systemctl restart via the armed key) lands the re-probe on the act line. +Phase 9b additions: MARK EXPECTED on ratio's real unexpected listeners (postgres :5432, docker :8080 — the standing curation material) dims them into the expected list and UNMARK restores them; a CPU-mode press (e.g. BAL·PWR) writes the EPP hint and the row re-reads it; KILL renders disabled (insensitive, tooltip) on a session-critical name in top memory; on velox the battery row shows NO SET 80% key (cros_ec knob absent — correct withholding, not a bug). +Phase 11 additions: glyph left-click opens the console and a second click closes it; right-click still toggles the btop scratchpad; the glyph color matches the board's worst lever-less diagnostic (open the console and check the watch items against the glyph tint); after fixing/curating a diagnostic, the glyph follows within one 30-min scan (or immediately after a manual =maint scan=); on velox in person — battery % + charging icon in the bar, collapsed bar keeps the battery glyph, low-charge red (drain below 15% or temporarily raise battery_low_pct in the TOML); after velox's reboot confirm systemctl --user list-timers shows both maint timers scheduled. +Phase 10 additions: results-wall readability during a real doctor run (press CLEAN UP on the live board — every step should appear as a running line the moment it starts, resolve in place with the result, and the re-probed truth should follow; the wall should feel like watching the run, not reading a report afterward); COPY puts the same lines the CLI wall prints on the clipboard, paste somewhere to check; HIDE collapses the wall to its header and SHOW restores it with the scroll position at the bottom; REVIEW & FIX reads right at the moment of use (each row: what's wrong, the maint fix usage, and either a FIX key or "per-item — on its subpanel"); RECLAIM on a degraded disk row arms with the first step + "(+N more steps)" and the fire streams every step to the wall individually; a guard-tripped UPDATE fired from the REVIEW roster re-arms with the override wording and the second press actually runs (the token fix — verify the loop terminates). +Phase 11b additions: the fidelity eyeball — open the live console beside the settled E5 prototype (headless-Chrome render or the browser) and judge whether the board finally reads as the same instrument: big-number typography, bar fills with the gold threshold tick on the cache card, the scrub/keyring/topgrade rings, status chips, the lit CPU-mode segment, selector count chips + severity left borders, right-aligned attention/ok/fixable/watch header; press an EPP segment on the card (e.g. BAL·PWR) and confirm it arms then fires exactly like the old digest control; on the bad fixture (MAINT_PANEL_FIXTURE=bad maint panel) check a long readout (the BACKUPS card) ellipsizes with a tooltip carrying the full value. +**** 2026-07-08 Wed @ 06:31:00 -0500 Fixed TOPGRADE remedy failure found in testing (dotfiles 9b5384f) +Craig's first testing find: TOPGRADE exited 2 on every launch — topgrade 17.6.1 names the git step git_repos and the remedy passed --disable git, rejected by clap before any step ran. Fixed red-first (test pins git_repos), full make test green, dry-run on the installed binary confirms the step name lands and the repo-rebasing step stays excluded. Velox pulled. RE-TEST: press TOPGRADE again (it's guard-armed on ratio's pending mesa set — TTY is still the safe path for the mesa run). + +*** CPU mode survives a reboot +What we're verifying: =maint-epp-restore.service= replays the CPU mode the pill last set. The kernel resets EPP to the driver default on every boot, so this is the only check that can prove the fix; nothing an agent runs before a reboot distinguishes "it works" from "nothing was reset yet." +- Open the maintenance console, MEM·PWR band, and press a CPU-mode segment other than the current one (say BAL·PWR). +- Confirm the act line says the mode was remembered. +#+begin_src sh :results output +cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/energy_performance_preference +grep -A1 '^\[power\]' ~/.config/maint/*.toml 2>/dev/null +#+end_src +- Reboot. +- After logging back in, run the block below. +#+begin_src sh :results output +cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/energy_performance_preference +systemctl --user status maint-epp-restore.service --no-pager | head -5 +#+end_src +Expected: the EPP value after the reboot is the mode you selected, not the driver default, and the unit shows =Active: inactive (dead)= with =Result=success= (a oneshot that ran and exited). + +*** Audio signal metering: apply the package (precondition) +What we're verifying: the signal-metering build is live. Only a =git pull= is needed — the =audio/= package .py files are stowed and no new launcher files were added, so no restow or reboot. The shared panel CSS gained a =.lamp.dim= class (live-idle); it's in the same stowed =panel.css=. +#+begin_src sh :results output +cd ~/.dotfiles && git pull +#+end_src +Expected: the pull succeeds (commits 6054d3d..21437b4). +*** Three-state activity lamp reads live +What we're verifying: the INPUT/OUTPUT lamps show muted / live-idle / live-active from real device state, not just mute. +- Open the audio panel (bar sound glyph / Super+A). With nothing playing and the output unmuted, look at the OUTPUT lamp. +Expected: a dim (not bright) green lamp — live-idle: unmuted but no audio flowing. +- Start playing audio (music, a video). +Expected: the OUTPUT lamp brightens to a bright glowing green — live-active. +- Mute the output (click OUTPUT). +Expected: the lamp goes red — muted. +*** OUTPUT needle tracks real signal, not the fader +What we're verifying: the OUTPUT VU needle moves with actual output level, replacing the old volume-fed needle. +- With audio playing, watch the OUT · PLAY needle; then pause the audio (leave the volume fader where it is). +Expected: the needle deflects and rides the music while playing, and falls to rest when paused even though the fader hasn't moved. (The old behavior held the needle up at the fader position.) +*** INPUT needle registers the mic, including during PTT +What we're verifying: the IN · MIC needle shows real mic level and confirms PTT is capturing. +- With the mic live (INPUT unmuted), speak. +Expected: the IN · MIC needle deflects with your voice. +- Set the mic to muted, then hold the PUSH·TALK key and speak. +Expected: while held, the INPUT lamp reads live and the IN · MIC needle registers your voice; on release it rests again. +*** No parec / CPU cost when the panel is closed +What we're verifying: the meter runs only while the panel is open and leaves no orphan =parec=. +- Open the audio panel, then close it (✕, Esc, or the bar click). +#+begin_src sh :results output +pgrep -af 'parec .*@DEFAULT_(MONITOR|SOURCE)@' || echo "no parec running — clean" +#+end_src +Expected: no matching =parec= process after the panel is closed (the process groups were reaped on teardown). +*** Per-device activity lamp on each device row (option 3) +What we're verifying: each OUTPUTS/INPUTS row leads with a lamp showing whether THAT device is live — red (muted) / dim green (unmuted, idle) / bright green (carrying audio) — so you can see which specific device has sound, not just the default. +- Open the panel. Scan the leading lamp on each output/input row. +Expected: muted devices show a red lamp; unmuted devices show green. +- Play audio to a non-default output (or switch the default to a device, then play). +Expected: the row of the device actually playing shows the brightest (live-active) green; an unmuted-but-silent device shows the dimmer (live-idle) green. Judge whether the dim-vs-bright contrast is clear enough — if not, say so and the CSS is a one-line tweak. +- Note: the row lamps update on the panel's status refresh (~3s), so allow a moment after audio starts. +*** Timer redesign: apply the package + wtimer, clear stale timers (precondition) +What we're verifying: the redesigned =timer/= package + =wtimer= are live. Only a =git pull= is needed — the package .py files and =wtimer= are already stowed, and this build added no new launcher files, so no restow or reboot. Clear any pre-existing timers first so a stale-shape state file (an old pomodoro item lacking the new =cfg=) can't crash =wtimer render=. +#+begin_src sh :results output +cd ~/.dotfiles && git pull +wtimer cancel-all +#+end_src +Expected: the pull succeeds and the bar timer glyph goes idle (no active items). +*** Panel opens hero-on-top; close via the ✕, Esc, and the bar +What we're verifying: the redesigned layout renders (header, hero, CONFIGURE, queue) and every close path works. +- Click the timer module on the bar. +Expected: the panel opens floating top-right — a header faceplate, a HERO block for the primary item, the CONFIGURE strip, then a QUEUE well below. +- Click the ✕ in the header; reopen; press Esc; reopen; click the bar module again. +Expected: each of ✕, Esc, and the bar click closes the panel. +*** Timer with repeat +What we're verifying: the REPEAT toggle re-arms a timer on fire instead of dropping it. +- Pick TIMER, type =10s= (fast to observe), toggle REPEAT on, click +. +Expected: the timer appears carrying a "repeat" badge and a "timer · repeats" sub-line. +- Let it fire. +Expected: it notifies and immediately re-arms to a fresh full countdown rather than vanishing. +*** Alarm: recurring day, snooze, ringing, dismiss +What we're verifying: a recurring alarm rings (not fire-and-vanish), snooze re-arms, and dismiss re-arms a recurring one. +- Pick ALARM, type a clock time about a minute ahead (HH:MM), select today's weekday in the day picker, set SNOOZE to 1, click +. +Expected: the row shows the fire clock time and a weekday badge; the hero donut is a countdown ring to the fire time. +- Let it reach the fire time. +Expected: the hero shows RING and the bar glyph goes urgent (RING); SNOOZE and DISMISS buttons appear on the hero. +- Click SNOOZE. +Expected: ringing stops and the alarm re-arms one minute out. +- Let it ring again, click DISMISS. +Expected: ringing stops; because it is recurring it re-arms to its next matching day (a one-shot alarm would be removed instead). +*** Pomodoro: configurable cycle, auto vs await, cycle dots +What we're verifying: the config grid drives the cycle and the AUTO toggle switches between auto-advance and awaiting a start. +- Pick POMODORO, tap a named cycle (e.g. Deep) to fill the grid, set WORK S to 1 (min) for a fast run, toggle AUTO off, click + ADD CYCLE. +Expected: a pomodoro starts in work; the hero shows cycle dots and "work · cycle 1/N". +- Let the work phase fire with AUTO off. +Expected: it enters the rest phase awaiting a start — the hero shows "ready · start break" and a START BREAK button, and it does not count down until pressed. +- Press START BREAK. +Expected: the rest phase counts down; the glyph/color shifts to the break (sage) state. +*** Stopwatch: sweep dial, lap badge, promote, stop +What we're verifying: the analog sweep dial animates, the last-lap ghost badge shows, promote works, and STOP just stops (run-save deferred). +- Pick STOPWATCH, click +. If it isn't the hero, promote it (the ▲ on its queue row). +Expected: the hero donut is an analog second-hand dial sweeping once per minute (not a percentage ring); the elapsed value counts up. +- Hit LAP a couple of times (name one via the popover). +Expected: a "LAP m:ss" ghost badge appears beside the elapsed value and the sub-line shows the lap count. +- Hit STOP. +Expected: the stopwatch is removed. No =~/org/stopwatch-runs.org= entry is written — run-save is deferred to a later version. +*** Queue sort, promote/cycle, 10-item cap +- Add a 25m timer, a 5m timer, and an alarm a few minutes out. +Expected: the queue orders soonest-first; a ringing alarm jumps above everything. +- Use ‹ / › on the hero (or ▲ on a queue row) to change the primary. +Expected: the hero (bar-slot) item changes accordingly and the bar glyph follows. +- Queue items until 10 exist. +Expected: + disables with a "queue is full (10/10)" reason; running countdowns advance live (the =wtimer watch= subscription). +*** Presets: locked defaults, half-past, custom add/delete +- On TIMER, note the default chips carry no × (locked); add a custom preset via + preset, then delete it with its ×. +Expected: locked defaults can't be deleted; a custom preset adds and deletes cleanly. +- On ALARM, tap the half-past chip, click +. +Expected: an alarm is created at the next :30. +*** Bar tooltip parity +What we're verifying: the bar tooltip mirrors the redesign verbatim. +- With a pomodoro, a paused timer, and a ringing alarm active, hover the bar module. +Expected: each item lists on its own line — the pomodoro as "label cycle/iv countdown" (no phase word), the paused one with a "(paused)" suffix, the ringing one as "RING (ringing)". +*** Audio panel: apply the new shims + configs (precondition for the tests below) +What we're verifying: the new =audio=/=audio-panel=/=waybar-audio= bin shims and the hyprland.conf + waybar config edits are live. New files need a restow (a plain =git pull= doesn't symlink them). Quit Hyprland or run from a TTY — restowing live Hyprland writes a stub hyprland.conf. +#+begin_src sh :results output +cd ~/.dotfiles && git pull +cd ~/.dotfiles && make restow hyprland +#+end_src +- Reload waybar: mod+B (or =killall -SIGUSR2 waybar=). +- Reload the Hyprland config: mod+Shift+R (or =hyprctl reload=). +Expected: =which audio audio-panel waybar-audio= resolves all three to ~/.local/bin symlinks; no stow conflicts reported. + +*** Audio panel: opens and reads the live graph +What we're verifying: Super+A opens the instrument-console panel (not the old pulsemixer scratchpad) and it shows the real devices. +- Press Super+A. +Expected: the audio panel opens top-right. OUTPUTS lists every sink, INPUTS every mic (no .monitor entries), the default device in each is emphasized (cream name, gold glyph), each row shows its volume percent, and the twin OUT·PLAY / IN·MIC needles deflect. Esc closes it. + +*** Audio panel: set default, volume fader, per-device mute +What we're verifying: the three row interactions drive the real graph and the panel re-reads to confirm. +- With two or more outputs present, click a non-default output row's body. +Expected: that device becomes default (gold DEF emphasis moves to it) and playback follows. +- Drag a device's fader. +Expected: the volume percent tracks the fader and the actual device volume changes (no lag, no jump to the border). +- Click a device's trailing mute glyph. +Expected: that one device mutes/unmutes; the glyph and caption reflect it; other devices unaffected. + +*** Audio panel: master quick-mute (faceplate switch + mute key) +What we're verifying: the master switch and the XF86AudioMute key both mute every output at once (not just the default sink). +- Flip the faceplate master switch. +Expected: every output mutes, the state word reads MUTED, the badge shows, the faceplate glyph goes to the slashed speaker. Flip back to restore. +- With two outputs audible, press the hardware mute key (XF86AudioMute). +Expected: both outputs mute (master), not just the default. Press again to unmute all. + +*** Audio panel: mic modes + push-to-talk (the meeting case) +What we're verifying: LIVE/MUTED work, and PUSH·TALK holds the mic muted except while the talk key is held — the one genuinely new capability, and the one only a live test can confirm. +- Click LIVE, then MUTED, watching the default mic row. +Expected: LIVE unmutes the mic (needle lifts), MUTED mutes it (needle red); the active mode key shows a gold lamp. +- Click PUSH·TALK. In a call app (or =audio status= in a loop), watch the mic while you hold Space, speak, then release. +Expected: mic is muted at rest, un-mutes for exactly as long as Space is held, re-mutes on release. Switching back to LIVE or MUTED disarms the hold (Space types normally again). + +*** Audio panel: visual polish eyeball + bar entry point +What we're verifying: the panel looks right in the dupre instrument-console language, and the bar opens it. +- Look over the whole panel: faceplate spacing, engraved section labels, fader styling, VU needle centering, the muted-vs-audible glyph/color states. +Expected: it reads as a sibling of the net and bt panels; nothing overflows the gold border; the faders and gauges look machined, not stock GTK. +- Right-click the waybar sound module. +Expected: the panel opens (left-click still mutes, scroll still changes volume). + +*** SUPERSEDED — Timer fuzzel dialogs (Escape-cancel, 12h alarm entry) +These two tests exercised the old fuzzel creation dialogs, retired when the bar's =custom/timer= on-click became =timer-panel=. The panel redesign checklist above covers the same ground: alarm entry (12h shapes, bad-input reject) is now the panel's ALARM freeform + inline validation, and the whole-flow abort is the panel's Esc/✕/bar close. Nothing to run here; kept as a pointer so the intent isn't lost. + +*** Speed test streams in the panel +What we're verifying: the panel's speed test fills in as phases complete instead of dumping everything at the end (the CLI path is live-verified; this is the GTK rendering). +NOTE (2026-07-04 audit): these steps describe the OLD four-tab Blueprint panel ("Diagnostics → Network Performance"). The net panel was rebuilt as a single-screen instrument console (dotfiles 800ef60, f4e688e dropped the Blueprint pages), so the navigation below no longer matches the shipped UI — reword to the console layout before running. Don't delete; the streaming-render behavior is still worth verifying. +- Open the net panel, Diagnostics → Network Performance → Run Speedtest. +Expected: a Ping/Download/Upload checklist appears under the running row; ping lands within seconds, download mid-run, upload near the end; then the final rows (with jitter on Ping, a Packet loss row) replace it. A Tip row appears only if a rule fired, and it names the numbers that triggered it. + +*** Proton VPN CLI sign-in (velox now, ratio on its trip) +What we're verifying: the proton CLI has its own account store (separate from the retired GTK app's), so the panel's proton rows can't toggle until you sign in once per machine. +- Run in a terminal: protonvpn signin <your-proton-username> (it prompts for the password). The CLI's action is =signin=, not =login=. +#+begin_src sh :results output +protonvpn info +#+end_src +Expected: Account shows your Proton username instead of 'None'. After that, protonvpn status still says Disconnected — correct, nothing auto-connects. + +*** Tunnels round-trip: panel rows + bar badge (first real tunnel-owned route) +What we're verifying: the panel's Tunnels tab drives a real wireguard tunnel up and down, and the bar indicator grows the vpn badge while the tunnel owns the default route (the badge has never rendered live — every prior check ran with the wlan owning the route). +- Open the net panel (left-click the bar's net module), switch Connections to the Tunnels page. +- Confirm the rows: tailscale (up), and the three Proton configs (wg-US-TX-714, wg-US-CA-144, wg-NL-781), all down. +- Select wg-US-TX-714, press Bring Up, wait for the row to land. +Expected: the bar's net glyph gains the small vpn badge; its tooltip names the owner ("Tunnel: default route via wgpvpn (wireguard)"). +- Press Bring Down on the same row. +Expected: badge gone, tooltip back to normal, internet still works (the wlan owns the route again). + +*** Screenshot View Image option +What we're verifying: the new post-capture menu entry opens the shot and puts its path on the clipboard (dispatch is unit-tested; this is the live end-to-end). +- Take a screenshot the usual way (region or fullscreen). +- Pick "View Image" from the fuzzel menu. +- Paste anywhere (the clipboard should hold the file path). +Expected: the shot opens in feh (the default image/png viewer) and the pasted text is the saved file's path under ~/pictures/screenshots/. + +*** Wlogout square cells on velox (and later ratio) +What we're verifying: the exit menu's six buttons read as squares with visible muted borders, and only pointer hover shows gold (measured 361x361 px, but your eyeball is the arbiter). +- Press Super+Shift+Q. +- Look at the six cells' shape and borders; hover a couple of buttons; note the lock button is not gold before you hover it. +- Press Esc to close (careful: the letter keybinds are live — e is logout). +Expected: square cells with subtle borders, gold only under the pointer, muted ring on the focused button. Repeat on ratio after its sync. + +*** wtimer: color states + click/scroll interactions on the live bar +What we're verifying: the timer module's interactions and CSS state colors render right on the live bar. The glyph, position (right of battery), countdown, and "+N" badge are already verified live; the per-state colors and the real mouse/scroll bindings are what's left. The logic is unit-tested (86 cases); this is the human-in-the-loop visual + input check. +- Left-click the timer module — a fuzzel menu offers timer / alarm / stopwatch / pomodoro; pick timer, enter =5s=. +- Watch it count down; at under a minute it should turn the urgent color (dupre orange #d47c59). +Expected: the timer reaches 0:00, a persistent notification fires, and the item disappears from the bar. +- Create two timers (e.g. =3m= and =10m=); a =+1= badge shows; scroll over the module. +Expected: scrolling cycles which item is primary (the displayed time/glyph changes); the badge count stays correct. +- Middle-click the module while a timer runs. +Expected: it pauses (dimmed paused color #5f5c52) and the countdown freezes; middle-click again resumes from where it left off. +- Right-click the module with items present. +Expected: a fuzzel menu lists the items; choosing one cancels it. +- Start a pomodoro (left-click → pomodoro); let a work phase elapse (or set short test phases by editing state). +Expected: the glyph + color switch between work (gold #d7af5f) and break (#8a9a5b), a notification fires at each phase change, and the cycle count advances. +*** Sysmon right-click cycles the visible metric (live waybar) +What we're verifying: right-clicking the collapsed sysmon module rotates the visible metric and the bar refreshes at once, left-click still opens btop, and the cpu/temp/mem icons render as real glyphs (not tofu boxes).

The function's =return 1= under run-test.sh's =set -e= killed the run before the test report was written or the VM cleaned up. -Fix: deleted =validate_hyprland_plugins= and =validate_hyprpm_hook= (the hyprpm pacman hook was removed in the same commit) plus their calls in =validate_window_manager=; disabled errexit in =run-test.sh= from the validation phase onward so a failed check is counted (=VALIDATION_FAILED=) instead of fatal — the script signals pass/fail via its exit code at the end. Verified with =bash -n=; the next =make test= run confirms the count-not-abort behavior. -** DONE [#B] toggle key for touchpad on/off -CLOSED: [2026-05-20 Wed] -*** 2026-05-20 Wed @ 18:18:30 -0400 Spec: touchpad toggle + waybar indicator - -**** Current state -A toggle mechanism already exists in the live home dir but is only partly committed. -- =~/.local/bin/toggle-touchpad= (live, NOT in repo): reads/writes a state file at =${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR:-/tmp}/touchpad-state= (values "enabled"/"disabled"), flips =hyprctl keyword "device[$TOUCHPAD]:enabled" true|false=, and fires a =notify info "Touchpad" ...= toast. Hardcodes =TOUCHPAD="pixa3854:00-093a:0274-touchpad"=. -- =~/.local/bin/touchpad-auto= (live, NOT in repo): daemon watching Hyprland's =.socket2.sock= for mouseadded/mouseremoved/configreloaded, auto-disables the touchpad when an external mouse is present, writes the same state file. Same hardcoded device name. -- Keybinding already committed: =bind = $mod, F9, exec, toggle-touchpad= (=hyprland.conf:315=). -- State file confirmed live at =/run/user/1000/touchpad-state= (reads "enabled"). - -**** Gap -1. No waybar indicator — nothing in modules-right shows touchpad state; no =custom/touchpad= module exists. -2. Neither =toggle-touchpad= nor =touchpad-auto= is committed into the repo. They live only in =~/.local/bin=, so a fresh stow won't install them. They belong in =dotfiles/hyprland/.local/bin/= (the =dotfiles/dwm/.local/bin/toggle-touchpad= is the old X11/xinput version, unrelated). -3. =touchpad-auto= is never started — no =exec-once= launches it. -4. The toggle doesn't refresh waybar, so an indicator would lag until its poll interval. - -**** Proposed implementation -1. New status script =dotfiles/hyprland/.local/bin/waybar-touchpad= mirroring =waybar-layout= / =waybar-netspeed= (emit one JSON line: text + tooltip + class). Reads the state file the toggle already writes — single source of truth, no extra hyprctl call. Emits a "disabled" class + off-icon when the state file reads "disabled", else "enabled" + on-icon. -2. Waybar module in =dotfiles/hyprland/.config/waybar/config=, using "signal" so the toggle pushes an instant refresh (no polling — state only changes on toggle or mouse hotplug): - =, "custom/touchpad": { "exec": "waybar-touchpad", "return-type": "json", "signal": 9, "on-click": "toggle-touchpad" }= - Add =custom/touchpad= to modules-right, near =idle_inhibitor=. -3. Refresh-on-toggle: have =toggle-touchpad= (and =touchpad-auto='s set function) run =pkill -RTMIN+9 waybar= after each write to the state file (RTMIN+N ⇄ waybar "signal": N). Alternative: drop "signal", use "interval": 2 (simpler, ~2s lag, constant poll). Signal is the cleaner fit. -4. =style.css= (=dotfiles/hyprland/.config/waybar/style.css=): add =#custom-touchpad= to the shared padding/hover selector lists; add =#custom-touchpad.disabled { color: #d47c59; }= (the dupre orange already used for warnings). Enabled state inherits the default color. -5. Keybinding: keep =$mod+F9= (=hyprland.conf:315=). The waybar on-click gives a mouse path to the same action. -6. Commit the live scripts so stow installs them: =toggle-touchpad= and =touchpad-auto= into =dotfiles/hyprland/.local/bin/= (plus the =pkill= line), and =waybar-touchpad= (new). If the auto-disable-on-external-mouse behavior is wanted at boot, add =exec-once = touchpad-auto= near the other daemon exec-once lines. - -**** Decisions (Craig, 2026-05-20) -1. Icons: enabled / disabled (the mouse / mouse-off pair). -2. Waybar on-click toggles the touchpad. -3. Commit =touchpad-auto= and add its =exec-once= so it runs at login. -4. Signal-driven refresh (=pkill -RTMIN+9 waybar=). -Note: the hardcoded device name =pixa3854:00-093a:0274-touchpad= is Framework-laptop-specific — a portability concern for other machines, not a blocker for this task. - -*** 2026-05-20 Wed @ 18:29:06 -0400 Implemented the toggle + waybar indicator (in repo) -Built per spec + decisions above. Committed the two formerly-live-only scripts into the repo and added the indicator: -- =dotfiles/hyprland/.local/bin/waybar-touchpad= (new) — reads =$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/touchpad-state=, emits JSON (text/tooltip/class), fail-safe to "enabled". Unit-tested in =tests/waybar-touchpad/= (6 Normal/Boundary cases). -- =dotfiles/hyprland/.local/bin/toggle-touchpad= — copied from =~/.local/bin=, added =pkill -RTMIN+9 waybar= so the indicator refreshes on toggle. -- =dotfiles/hyprland/.local/bin/touchpad-auto= — copied in, =pkill -RTMIN+9 waybar= inside =set_touchpad= so auto on/off events refresh too. Added =exec-once = touchpad-auto= to =hyprland.conf=. -- =waybar/config= — =custom/touchpad= module (signal:9, on-click toggle-touchpad), placed in modules-right before idle_inhibitor. -- =waybar/style.css= — =#custom-touchpad= in padding + hover lists; =.disabled { color: #d47c59 }= (dupre orange). -- =$mod+F9= bind already present (=hyprland.conf=), left as-is. - -*** 2026-05-20 Wed @ 18:36:26 -0400 Deployed + verified on velox -Discovered =.local/bin= is stow-symlinked (waybar-layout/netspeed point into the repo); the two touchpad scripts were real files only because they weren't committed. Replaced both real files with repo symlinks and symlinked the new =waybar-touchpad= (matching the existing relative-symlink form). velox needed no hyprland.conf change — =exec-once = touchpad-auto= and the =$mod+F9= bind were already present. waybar =config= / =style.css= are real local files on velox (config diverges: standalone battery, no sysmonitor group), so applied targeted edits there rather than a copy. - -Verified end-to-end after a waybar restart: config loads with no parse errors; toggle round-trips state enabled → disabled (, class disabled) → enabled (), and the =pkill -RTMIN+9 waybar= refresh fires into the running bar. Touchpad left enabled. Visual confirmation (icon in bar, orange when off) is Craig's to eyeball. Other machines (ratio) pick this up on =git pull && make restow hyprland= — their =.local/bin= and waybar configs are symlinks, so no real-file conflict there. -** DONE [#B] Airplane-mode toggle + waybar indicator -CLOSED: [2026-05-21 Thu] -Laptop-only low-power toggle, modeled on the touchpad indicator. Wifi off (bluetooth left alone for earbuds), CPU EPP → power, brightness → 35%, and stops network-only services. Disengage restores only what it recorded, so anything already off stays off. -*** 2026-05-21 Thu @ 17:43:07 -0400 Built the toggle, indicator, and tests -- =dotfiles/hyprland/.local/bin/airplane-mode= (new) — toggle. Engage records prior state (wifi enabled/disabled, EPP value, brightness, which services were active) to =$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/airplane-state=, then applies low-power: =nmcli radio wifi off=, EPP → power on all CPUs (sudo sysfs write), =brightnessctl set 35%=, and stops Tier 1+2 services (tailscaled, proton.VPN, avahi-daemon, cups, wsdd, geoclue, sshd, fail2ban + user syncthing). Disengage replays the recorded state — only re-enables wifi if it was on, only restarts services it stopped. Refreshes the bar via =pkill -RTMIN+10 waybar=. -- =dotfiles/hyprland/.local/bin/waybar-airplane= (new) — indicator. Reads =mode= from the state file; fail-safe to inactive. Laptop-gated: exits silently (module hidden) when no battery is present (=/sys/class/power_supply/BAT*=). One clear plane glyph (FA U+F072) for both states; color carries state (gold active / gray inactive). -- =waybar/config= — =custom/airplane= module (signal 10, on-click airplane-mode), placed after custom/touchpad. =waybar/style.css= — =#custom-airplane= in padding + hover lists; =.active { color: #d7af5f }= (dupre gold). -- Tests: =tests/airplane-mode/= (20 — engage/disengage/preserve-existing-state/dispatch, via command stubs + fake EPP sysfs) and =tests/waybar-airplane/= (10 — states/boundary/laptop-gating). All green; shellcheck clean. -- Deployed + live-verified on velox (engage → disengage round-trip works).

Verified with =bash -n= and a smoke-test matrix of good/bad inputs through both functions. The next =make test= run confirms valid configs still install. Leaving as DOING for review. -The =protonmail-bridge= package ships an enabled systemd user service (=/usr/lib/systemd/user/protonmail-bridge.service=, =--noninteractive=, =Restart=always=) that double-launches with the Hyprland =exec-once = protonmail-bridge --no-window= GUI autostart. Two symptoms: (1) no tray icon — the headless service grabs ports 127.0.0.1:1143/:1025 before the GUI =--no-window= instance can bind; (2) TLS cert mismatch — the headless service can't reach gnome-keyring (starts outside the graphical session), falls back to its own self-signed cert, so =mbsync=/mu4e and cmail-action.py fail STARTTLS against =~/.config/protonbridge.pem= with SSL CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED. +*** 2026-05-20 Wed @ 06:50:25 -0500 Swept shellcheck across the shell scripts +Census across the 16 shell scripts (=archsetup=, =init=, =scripts/*.sh=, =scripts/testing/=): 124 findings, zero errors.

The guard refuses to run unless the target is absolute, free of =..=, deeper than a bare top-level dir, strictly inside the allowed prefix (not the prefix itself), and a real directory (not a symlink); otherwise it prints the reason and returns non-zero without deleting.

Host-coredump pollution should stop.

Live both hosts: ratio 45 metrics, velox 49. REAL FINDS: listeners crit on both (ratio postgres/8080 wildcard binds, velox syncthing *:8384/*:22000) — curation material for Craig; backups stale on both since 2026-07-06 (truenas down for repairs, Craig confirmed — clears when it returns).

All machines now on ~/.dotfiles. +*** 2026-07-07 Tue @ 23:14:56 -0500 Built Phase 6 — remedy layer, priv verbs, guard, doctor CLI (dotfiles e171c08) +The full remedy layer TDD'd in one pass (no 6a/6b split needed): remedies.py allowlisted table (~30 remedies — exact argv, tiers per the design tables as amended by the dated decisions, re_probe_ids, long flags, RECLAIM SPACE macro resolving steps against the envelope incl. per-config snapper expansion); priv.py +28 write verbs (closed builders, type-validated args, per-verb timeouts; =build()= returns the exact sudo-prefixed argv so dry-run and the GUI arm-press share one string); guard.py pure live-update matcher over new TOML =[updates] guard_patterns= (fnmatch, case-sensitive, pairwise-tested; cold pending-cache is surfaced as a note, never silent); curation.py user-layer writes (mark/unmark/clear + KEEP/MARK KNOWN/EXPECTED wrappers, disable-flags for shipped defaults, self-verifying TOML emitter); doctor.py clean|review + iter_fix streaming the event feed (begin/ok/fail/guard/note; failures red without aborting; re-probed truth after each action); cli =maint fix <id> [--dry-run] [--force]= + =maint doctor clean|review= wall renderer; status envelope now stamps =levers= (always-on for free controls: epp_set, charge_limit, update, topgrade). KILL four guards: pid:name victim, TERM-only verb, session-critical denylist ([curation.session_critical], new TOML table) at preview, comm revalidation + denylist re-check at fire. Live-pinned before coding: coredumpctl HAS NO clean verb (find -mtime +N -delete via priv), log-cleanup at ~/.local/bin/cron/, rsyncshot takes <mode> <keep>, ufw enable needs --force, EPP value enum. Review subagent (live-verified): Request Changes — 1 Blocking (json.dumps astral-char surrogate pairs = invalid TOML: one emoji in a MARK KNOWN example would brick thresholds.load() for the whole console → ensure_ascii=False + write self-verifies by re-parsing before replace) + 1 Important (KeyError from sparse installed TOML escapes the event stream → caught, degrades to a red wall entry) + 2 Minor (cold-cache guard note, comm-vs-denylist re-check); all fixed red-first (6 new tests), re-review Approve. maint suites 297→393 (96 in the new suite); full make test green ×2 (unpiped, exit 0). VERIFIED LIVE on ratio: doctor clean executed the Auto tier for real — paccache -ruk0 freed 223.91 MiB and the re-probe measured the cache drop exactly; the live-update guard trips on ratio's genuinely-pending mesa/vulkan-radeon set. TOML +guard_patterns/+session_critical/+timeline_quarterly installed both hosts. -*** 2026-06-02 Tue @ 12:16:54 -0500 Phase 3.2 done — removed in-repo dotfiles/ from archsetup -git rm'd the in-repo =dotfiles/= tree (831 files) now that ratio + velox both stow from =~/.dotfiles=; the installer already clones DOTFILES_REPO so nothing read it at install time. Stripped the stow targets from archsetup's Makefile (kept VM-integration + the safe-rm-rf installer-helper suite). Updated CLAUDE.md (Project Structure, Makefile Targets, Dotfiles Repository, Script Counts, Theme/Key-Config path refs) and README.md (dotfile-management, theme, DE, unit-test sections) to point at =~/.dotfiles=; the README had been describing the pre-Phase-2 in-repo model. Commit b10cba5 on archsetup origin/main. velox + ratio local clones drop dotfiles/ on their next archsetup pull (ratio: see the "Pull Phase 3.2 changes onto ratio" task). 4 untracked calibre cache/annotation files that were never committed got moved aside to /tmp/archsetup-dotfiles-orphan-untracked-20260602 (disposable reading-position markers). +*** 2026-07-07 Tue @ 23:52:40 -0500 Built Phase 7 — GUI shell (dotfiles d28435e) +The GTK4 window lands as the fourth panel sibling (net.cjennings.maintpanel, humble-object layering: GTK-free PanelModel presenter + pure viewmodel formatters + thin gui.py view). Read-only shell: faceplate (worst lamp, CVE/ATTN badges, MNT·01, close), inert doctor/update keys, updates strip (pending/CVE/AUR/firmware from the strip ids), eight-band selector (lamp + fixable/watch split from the envelope's levers; updates/security categories fold into PACKAGES), metric-row subpanel per band with per-id value formatting (bytes/percent/days/°C/ms/bool). Hydration off-thread; 3s live tier (build_live: cheap mem·pwr reads) + 30s full rebuild, both visibility-gated; MAINT_PANEL_FIXTURE=good|bad renders shipped envelope fixtures (reshaped from the E5 prototype by tests/maint/gen_fixtures.py, deterministic, real remedy ids) and freezes both tiers so the degraded board stays put on a healthy machine. Review subagent: Request Changes — 1 Blocking (build_live returned bare metrics, so the 3s merge stripped the levers the full envelope established and the band splits oscillated between tiers → attach_levers in build_live) + 2 Minor (synthetic error envelope missing worst read as healthy green → panel.error_envelope with worst=unprobed; smoke leaked the panel process on mid-run assertion errors → try/finally reap); all fixed red-first, re-review Approve (+1 hardening: merge into an error envelope is a no-op). maint suites 393→447 (54 in test_panel.py); full make test green (56 suites, unpiped exit 0). AT-SPI smoke PASS on live Hyprland (faceplate, badges, strip, all 8 tiles, band switch, clean close; window parked on a special workspace, never the active one). Screenshots off-workspace via headless output: bad fixture + live board vs the E5 reference. Live board on ratio honest: 32 CVE / 13 ATTN, NETWORK red from the real listeners crit, SERVICES fixable from the truenas-down backup staleness. GOTCHAS: windowrules need hyprctl reload before first launch (panel opens tiled otherwise); pkill -f "maint panel" self-matches the invoking shell — anchor with "maint panel$". -*** 2026-06-02 Tue @ 12:16:54 -0500 Migrated script unit-test suites + a Makefile into ~/.dotfiles -Gave =~/.dotfiles= its own Makefile rather than repointing archsetup's =DOTFILES= default — the dotfiles repo now owns its stow tooling and tests, so it manages and validates standalone (relevant to the open-source release too). Authored =~/.dotfiles/Makefile= with the stow family (=stow/restow/reset/unstow/import= + check-de/check-dest + DE/DEST machinery) plus a =make test= target (mirrors archsetup's hyphenated-dir test-unit loop). Moved-Makefile fixups: =DOTFILES := $(shell pwd)= (trees at repo root), =reset='s revert scoped to =git checkout -- common $(DE)= (not the whole repo — caught in review), import header/path "dotfiles/$(DEST)" → "$(DEST)", =minimal= added to the import DEST filter only. +*** 2026-07-08 Wed @ 00:39:23 -0500 Built Phase 8 — GUI levers: digests, armed keys, rotary band, live strip (dotfiles 388521e) +The storage/snapshots/packages subpanels grew their evidence digests (disk hogs, per-drive SMART, device errors, snapper by-type, orphans KEEP/REMOVE, pacnew DELETE/MERGE, CVE advisories), packages got the E5 rotary band selector (ORPHANS/PACNEW/ADVISORIES), and the updates strip went live: state-tiered border, UPDATE/TOPGRADE behind the arm-to-override live-update guard, REBOOT offered when required or after an update lands. Every lever is arm-then-fire — first press shows the exact argv on the new act line (identical to =maint fix --dry-run=, the parity criterion), second press fires through =doctor.iter_fix= with the re-probe landing back on the act line; one key armed at a time, band/deck switch disarms; fixture boards always dry-run and never write curation, which is what lets the AT-SPI smoke exercise the full press-press path safely. Engine support: snapper probe emits =stale_singles= (DELETE STALE's candidates, newest kept), both scrub probes parse running-%, =doctor.pending_updates()= public for the arm-press guard read, fixtures regenerated with deterministic evidence. Review subagent (live-verified): Request Changes — 2 Important (refresh tiers raced a firing remedy: a 30s tick could probe the package DB mid-transaction and land stale data after the fire's own re-probe → tiers pause on =firing= + post-fire rebuild retries past an in-flight tick; digest builders KeyError'd on identity-less evidence rows replayed from cache files → skip-and-degrade, 8 new red-first tests) + 4 Minor (all taken: broadened strip-key except, scrub key offers first idle target instead of vanishing while any runs, busy-refused press no longer consumes the arm, fire-time guard refusal names the tripped set in GUI wording). Re-review: Approve. maint suites 447→516; full =make test= green (exit 0, unpiped); AT-SPI smoke PASS end-to-end on the bad fixture; headless-output screenshots vs E5; live board honest on ratio (real orphans w/ KEEP/REMOVE, 10.5 GB cache CLEAN, arm-press names the genuinely pending mesa set). Velox pulled to 388521e (no restow/TOML/windowrule changes).

Re-pointed calibre into =~/.dotfiles/common/.config/calibre=. Deleted the 73 radio links — dead and redundant, since the same playlists already stow correctly to =~/music/*.m3u=, which is what mpd reads (=music_directory=/=playlist_directory= both =~/music=) — and removed the reconciliation link. ratio now has zero archsetup-dangling symlinks.

Host tiers =ratio/= + =velox/= auto-included by every stow target; first tenants: hypr local.conf (velox HiDPI scale + XWayland toolkit env, replacing the Zoom per-app hack), pypr whole-file split, foot font via per-host host.ini include. waybar stays shared (velox's was stale, not divergent). velox restows cleanly for the first time and caught up on all pending dotfiles work. Drift guards extended to foot.ini; Makefile host logic unit-tested (15 suites green). Phase 5 (installer) filed as a follow-on below. velox needs a Hyprland restart for the env vars — see Manual testing. +*** 2026-07-08 Wed @ 02:36:54 -0500 Built Phase 10 — results wall + doctor keys (dotfiles cc2fb5d) +Results wall shipped as the session action log: doctor events stream per-event (begin opens a running entry with the exact argv, ok/fail resolves in place, re-probe notes follow), 3.5-visible-row scroll cap with autoscroll, HIDE/COPY (COPY emits CLI-wall text), curation writes logged (fixture-suppressed as dim notes). CLEAN UP streams the auto tier with no arm press; REVIEW & FIX swaps the subpanel to the confirm-tier roster (item-less remedies get armed FIX keys, per-item ones point at their subpanel; review events carry item + worst severity). RECLAIM SPACE macro landed on the disk-usage row (deferred from 9b); macro arm line shows first step + remaining count; zero-step macros refuse by name. Review (live-verified): Request Changes — 1 Important: the roster's FIX for update/topgrade could never override the live-update guard (fire-time re-arm used the bare rid while the FIX key arms on "rid:", and _on_lever never passed force — an infinite arm→guard loop); fixed by threading the pressed token through _fire and sharing the strip's guard arming (_guard_arm_line + panel.guarded). Minors all taken: wall_abort resolves stranded running entries red when a stream dies, empty-macro IndexError → named RemedyError, test predicate tightened. Re-review: Approve, no residuals. maint 612→645; make test 59 suites exit 0 ×2; AT-SPI smoke extended (wall, HIDE/SHOW, CLEAN UP stream, review roster, 14-line RECLAIM stream) PASS; screenshots vs E5; LIVE verify on ratio: real CLEAN UP on the live board streamed "3 done" with real re-probes (coredumps warn 5, disk_usage ok 60). Velox pulled cc2fb5d. -velox keeps laptop-specific configs (foot font, pypr scratchpad sizing for 2256x1504, waybar battery) as local REAL files shadowing the stow symlinks. That's fragile: any =make restow= on velox re-conflicts (hit exactly this during the 2026-05-22 migration — stow aborts on the real files). The =~/.dotfiles= model needs a real per-machine override story (a =minimal/=-style per-host package, a documented local-override convention with =.stow-local-ignore=, or host-conditional includes) so overrides survive restows without manual backup/restore. +*** 2026-07-08 Wed @ 03:24:44 -0500 Built Phase 11 — waybar glyph + timers (dotfiles 10033be) +custom/maint replaced custom/sysmon: waybar-maint renders from the state file maint-scan.timer writes every 30 min; color tracks the worst diagnostic (lever-less) metric only, actionable findings never color the bar; missing/stale scan data dims to an honest unprobed state naming the timer. Battery hosts show live battery % + charging icon from sysfs on waybar's interval; low charge forces red. Left-click toggles the console (new maint-panel wrapper); right-click keeps the btop scratchpad. Bare =maint scan= became the glyph scan (envelope → state → RTMIN+12); maint-net-scan.timer drives =--net --slow= hourly. Retired same commit: waybar-sysmon, sysmon-cycle, both suites, #custom-sysmon CSS ×3 — plus unnamed collateral the grep caught: waybar-collapse's collapsed base set (maint glyph stays on battery hosts — it IS the battery display now) and a stale dotfiles todo. Review (live-verified): Approve with 4 Minor, all taken red-first — scope!=Device gate so a wireless mouse's battery can't masquerade as the machine's (shared capability.device_scope), unprobed diagnostics named in the tooltip instead of "all clear" under a dimmed glyph, comment truth, dead state field dropped; re-confirm clean (677 maint tests). Full make test exit 0; smoke PASS (first run's pipe masked a transient AT-SPI race — rerun unpiped clean). LIVE both hosts: ratio timer fired for real (glyph amber from genuine diagnostics: firmware update + journal errors; 11 actionable NOT coloring), velox pulled + one-time stow + battery 100% text w/ warning class. velox's user systemd manager found wedged (pre-existing) — timers enabled via manual symlinks + state seeded; Craig rebooting to clear. -Spec: [[file:docs/PLAN-per-host-overrides.org][docs/PLAN-per-host-overrides.org]] — gated on review before implementation. +*** 2026-07-08 Wed @ 04:15:45 -0500 Built Phase 11b — prototype fidelity pass (dotfiles 3ee22a8) +Rebuilt the GUI presentation to the E5 instrument-card idiom. Each band renders a 4-column card grid: big-number readouts (viewmodel.card_spec registry — one builder per bespoke metric id, count-card fallback for the rest), cairo progress bars w/ threshold ticks (cache scaled to 1.5× the warn line), radial gauges (scrub cadence, keyring/topgrade age, temperatures — sweep scaled to the metric's own threshold), status chips (PASSED/FAILING/INACTIVE/YES; firewall chips the state word, exposure detail moves to the caption), and the CPU-mode segmented control promoted from digest section to card (current mode lit, alternatives as joined armed keys — same DIGEST_ONLY epp_set arm-then-fire). Evidence digests stay full-width below the grid. Selector became a two-row 4-col grid of wide tiles w/ count chips (3! · 7✓, crit reddens) + severity left borders; subpanel header carries the attention/ok/fixable/watch summary right-aligned beside a gold band title. The scoped NVMe wear dial was skipped honestly — no standalone wear metric exists (wear rides SMART evidence rows). Presentation only: engine/remedies/doctor/curation and the lever contracts unchanged. New 42-test suite (card kinds, threshold scales, running-scrub override, unprobed degrade incl. tick drop, seg exclusions, chips/subhead/band_counts, both-fixture sweep).

The roam systemd units were linked manually to unblock; everything else velox should have picked up from recent dotfiles work (mic-toggle, quick-capture, airplane-mode hardening, ranger plugin) is still NOT stowed there — velox's tree stays partially stale until this mechanism ships.

Verified: all four hosts resolve, an unknown host degrades to "NO INVENTORY FILE", and ratio's capability drawer still parses. A host without the roam clone (mybitch, truenas) takes the same no-inventory path it always did. -Coordinating with the .emacs.d project: handoff sent 2026-06-12 18:59 requesting a config-side fix scoped to frames named =org-capture= (handoff note + screenshot evidence delivered to .emacs.d's inbox, since processed and removed). Waiting on its reply in this project's inbox; then verify the popup end-to-end on ratio (Super+Shift+N → single-window menu → single-window capture buffer). Fallback if .emacs.d declines: carry the fix in the dotfiles =quick-capture= script's =-e= elisp. +The strix kernel watch stayed at =docs/workflows/strix-soak-watch.org= — it's a workflow, not an inventory page. +** DONE [#C] Optional ticking sound for the pomodoro :feature:timer: +CLOSED: [2026-07-09 Thu] +WTIMER_TICK=1 plays a quiet tick each second through a pomodoro's work phase; off by default, silent through rest (a tick there would undo the break), while paused, and while awaiting a manual advance. Rides the bar's existing once-a-second `wtimer render` call. Playback is fire-and-forget so it can never stall or break the bar. Sound is an 18ms 1.4kHz sine at a tenth of full scale (notify/tick.ogg); WTIMER_TICK_SOUND overrides. Craig still has to judge whether the tick sounds right. (dotfiles 886dafd) -Related finding, no change needed: whole-desktop screenshot already exists at CTRL+Super+S (=screenshot fullscreen=, grim fires before the fuzzel menu so popups survive). Possible follow-up decision: rebind Super+Shift+S (currently layout-switch to scrolling) if Craig wants fullscreen capture there. +Timers module.

Our side: test-first one-line change in the dotfiles =quick-capture= script — =(org-capture)= → =(cj/quick-capture)= — suite 15/15 green, live immediately via stow. Verified on ratio with sendshortcut-driven popups + grim: menu single-window with the 3-template subset, capture buffer single-window targeting =CAPTURE-inbox.org=, no orphan frames, nothing leaked into the inbox file. Verification reply + screenshot evidence sent back to .emacs.d.

Every preference now renders in a fixed order with the current one lit and unpressable in place, at full contrast rather than GTK's disabled dimming. The separate lit label is gone — the active segment is the lit one. Three separate tests encoded the old contract (unit, AT-SPI smoke, phase11b card); all moved with the behavior. The smoke caught a real gap the unit tests missed: the EPP row renders through the card path, which ignored the disabled flag.

The segmented control should hold a fixed layout and mark the active segment in place. +** DONE [#C] Session identifier needs more width :bug:waybar:quick: +CLOSED: [2026-07-09 Thu] +Not waybar — the tmux status line. status-left-length was never set, so tmux clipped the drawn status-left to its default of 10 columns: "[aiv-archsetup] " came out "[aiv-archs", losing the closing bracket and the separating space, which is why the window list ran into it. Set to 40. Applied to the live tmux server too. (dotfiles dc3c27f) + +The session section truncates; give it more characters, and keep the window sections that follow from running into it.

Full =make test= green. + +The 2026-07-08 fix gave common/ a .zprofile (zsh logins never read .profile, so ~/.local/bin was missing from TTY/ssh PATH — dotfiles 39cef40). The minimal/ tier has the same gap: it carries .zshrc and .profile but no .zprofile, so headless installs (DESKTOP_ENV=none stows minimal/ instead of common/) still get zsh logins without ~/.local/bin. Add a matching minimal/.zprofile (PATH-only prepend, same rationale comment). Verify: fresh minimal stow, zsh -lc 'echo $PATH' shows ~/.local/bin first.

Grounded in a live survey of ratio's stack: there is no PulseAudio (pipewire + wireplumber + pipewire-pulse, all user-scope, so no sudo anywhere), =pactl= hangs against a server that accepts and never answers, and the panel can't diagnose itself because =pactl= is the layer most likely to be down.

Worth a task only if it recurs. -Resolved 2026-06-14: the runnable script already existed — =scripts/package-inventory= (built 2026-02-06) extracts archsetup's declared packages and diffs them against the live system (=--summary= / =--archsetup-only= / =--system-only= / full report). This pass added the missing coverage: 7 characterization tests in =tests/package-inventory/= pinning the extraction and both diff directions behind injectable =PKGINV_ARCHSETUP= / =PKGINV_PACMAN= seams, plus a =make package-diff= target for discoverability. Full unit suite green (26 tests, 3 suites). +Second sighting, 2026-07-10: Chrome stopped recognizing the microphone while the stack was healthy (Shure MV7+ default, unmuted, 82%, PTT off). Restarting Chrome fixed it; nothing on the machine was touched. Both sightings share a shape the doctor cannot see: the graph is fine and one client cannot use it. A third sighting turns this into a design question, namely whether the doctor should say "the stack is fine, the fault is in the application" rather than a bare healthy. |
