+** DONE [#B] VM test harness shared one NVRAM file across filesystem profiles :bug:test:
+CLOSED: [2026-06-27 Sat]
+The harness shared one OVMF NVRAM file (=vm-images/OVMF_VARS.fd=) across the btrfs
+and zfs profiles (=init_vm_paths= suffixed the disk image per profile but not the
+NVRAM). NVRAM lives outside the qcow2, so a disk-snapshot revert can't restore it,
+and a zfs run's ZFSBootMenu boot entries clobbered the btrfs GRUB entry. With no
+removable =\EFI\BOOT\BOOTX64.EFI= fallback on the base ESP, the next btrfs run
+booted into UEFI with no bootable device ("BdsDxe: No bootable option or device
+was found", then PXE/HTTP, then SSH timeout before archsetup ran). Found
+2026-06-27 trying to VM-validate the installer refactor.
+
+Fixed: =OVMF_VARS= now carries the same per-profile suffix as the disk image
+(=OVMF_VARS${img_suffix}.fd=) in =vm-utils.sh init_vm_paths=, so btrfs and zfs keep
+separate NVRAM. Validated by a full green zfs run 2026-06-27 (ArchSetup exit 0,
+Testinfra 96 passed / 0 failed). Remaining hardening tracked below.

+** TODO [#B] btrfs base VM unbuildable — archangel ISO bakes zfs-auto-snapshot :bug:test:
+=make test-vm-base= (btrfs) fails in archangel's installer: the ISO bakes a fixed
+AUR list ("downgrade yay informant zrepl pacman-cleanup-hook zfs-auto-snapshot
+topgrade ventoy-bin") into every install regardless of =FILESYSTEM=. On a btrfs
+install =zfs= isn't present, so =zfs-auto-snapshot='s =zfs= dependency can't
+resolve and the unattended pacstrap aborts ("unable to satisfy dependency 'zfs'
+required by zfs-auto-snapshot"). This is an archangel ISO bug (the baked list isn't
+controllable from =archsetup-test.conf=), so it blocks btrfs-profile VM testing
+until archangel ships an ISO that conditions the AUR list on the filesystem (or
+drops zfs tooling from non-zfs installs). The 2026-06-27 btrfs base regen attempt
+also wiped the prior (unbootable) btrfs base, so there's no btrfs base image until
+this is fixed. zfs-profile testing works (=make test FS_PROFILE=zfs=).
+
+Companion hardening (defense-in-depth, archangel-side): install the bootloader
+with a removable =\EFI\BOOT\BOOTX64.EFI= fallback so a base boots even from
+fresh/empty NVRAM, and real installs survive firmware that drops boot entries.

** TODO [#C] Scratchpad launch turns on focus-follows-mouse :bug:hyprland:
Imported from roam inbox 2026-06-25. Repro: with two tiled windows, moving the mouse over the other tile does nothing (focus-follows-mouse off, as expected). Then launch a terminal (scratchpad), move the mouse over a tile, and focus now switches to the window under the pointer. Something about the scratchpad/terminal launch flips focus-follows-mouse on. Find what re-enables it (likely a Hyprland focus/input setting or a pyprland scratchpad side effect) and keep it off.
