GTK, Qt and Hyprland's own text move to the shell's pair: Noto Sans for
interface text and JetBrainsMono Nerd Font for figures and code. They
had been Adwaita Sans, Sans Serif and FiraCode.
The tray menu now slides and fades in without scaling, and a pressed
button sinks one pixel instead of shrinking, so no label is ever
stretched mid-animation.
All four Print binds go through hypr/scripts/shot.sh. Every capture
lands on the clipboard and posts a notification showing the picture,
with Open, Save (for clipboard captures, which wait in the runtime dir)
and Edit when satty is installed. Cancelling the region picker does
nothing.
Notification cards now load images passed as a path hint: Quickshell
routes those through the icon provider, which returned a placeholder.
Each monitor is a row of workspace cards at its own aspect ratio, with
live captures of the windows where they sit, including windows on
hidden workspaces. Alt+Tab opens it with the previous window picked,
further Tabs walk the focus history, and releasing Alt switches.
Super+W opens it without the hold. Hover, click, Enter and the
workspace digits work too.
Group cycling moves from Alt+Tab to Super+Tab and Super+Shift+Tab.
- Idle is handled in the shell instead of hypridle: the screen dims
slowly at 4 minutes, locks at 5, powers down at 6, and suspends at 15
on battery. Idle inhibitors hold every stage off; Super+Shift+I does
the same by hand and puts a cup on the rail.
- The shell draws the wallpaper (backdrop/), so hyprpaper is gone. The
picture is drawn a little larger than the screen and drifts with the
workspace a beat after the windows, and dims a shade while windows are
open. The path lives in quickshell/wallpaper.
- The lock screen and power menu say "Take your time." instead of the
NieR slogan.
- hyprpaper is no longer launched twice, the media module keeps the
player that played last instead of an empty browser tab, and grouped
windows show thin untitled tabs with their place in the group (2/3)
in the bar title.
- qt6ct uses Darkly; the package list gains adw-gtk-theme and darkly-bin.
The hull moves to the top layer, with its transparent opening and empty input
region, so windows sliding out of the opening during a workspace switch pass
behind the frame like things behind a porthole rim rather than drawing over
the bar. A layer rule keeps the bar and the rail above it on that layer.
The animation tree is redone around that: workspaces drift 18% vertically
and fade on a slow, jolt-free "drift" curve; the SUPER+S scratchpad slides in
whole from under the bar, the same gesture as the dashboard and popouts;
windows and layers keep their calm resolve and fade.

The square markers, block meters and hard-cornered fills read as boxy
next to the porthole. The desktop is now soft throughout: the porthole
is the shape everything is built around and every smaller surface echoes
it.
- Theme gains radiusS / radiusM / radiusL. radiusL is frameRadius - padS,
so anything inset padS inside one of the frame's curves is concentric
with it.
- P5Panel and Skew draw rounded rectangles (Geom.roundedRect) whenever
they neither lean nor are chopped, which is always now; the polygon
path is kept for shapes brought back on purpose.
- Markers are dots; workspace pips, toggles, transport and media chips,
notification actions and today's date are pills or discs; the slider
handle is round. Meters are one continuous rounded line that glides to
its level instead of a row of segments.
- Album art is rounded with ClippingRectangle in the bar, the media
popout and the dashboard.
- Free-standing panels (launcher, ask) drop the corner brackets and take
the frame radius.
- Fix: a hovered notification's wash was a full-bleed square, so in the
drawer's bottom corner it ran past the drawer's curve. It is inset by
padS/2 and rounded by radiusL, which keeps it inside the curve.
Hyprland: the discord special workspace and its window rule are gone,
SUPER+S stays the only scratchpad, and SUPER+D now opens the dashboard
(it was on SUPER+I).

Hyprland:
- Windows round at 8px, concentric with the porthole's 18px corners at
the 10px gap, instead of square corners inside a rounded opening.
- Group tabs are solid hull slabs; the titles used to float over the
wallpaper. The current tab is lifted a step with its title in the light.
- Motion rewritten to glide and settle: no overshoot curve, gentler
popin, workspaces slide-fade a short way instead of sweeping the whole
screen, and layers only fade so they never stack on quickshell's own
slides.
Quickshell:
- Album art in the bar and the media popout is square in a hairline frame,
not masked to a leaning chamfered shape; the accent slab under the
popout art is gone, and a track change dips the title instead of
tilting the art.
- The bar's equaliser is a five-hairline signal meter that rests as dots.
- Segment meters (system, battery, OSD) are 4px rows instead of 10-12px
blocks; the toast fuse is a hairline; the clock's accent slab is a
neutral divider.
- No hover pops: rail icons, tray icons, media transport buttons and
P5Button no longer scale up or lunge sideways; the icon bump is reduced.
Terminal: ANSI bright black drops to #464d44. TUIs use it as a panel fill,
and at the outline grey it read as a flat light slab.

A drawer lowered out of the underside of the bar, painted in the hull
colour and joined to it by two concave fillets so it reads as more of the
hull rather than as a floating card — caelestia's dashboard idea, in the
YoRHa language. Four columns divided by hairlines: operator and clock, the
month with today as an inverted square, the system meters, and the active
player with a hairline timeline and square transport buttons.
Opened by clicking the bar's clock (which used to pin the calendar), by
SUPER+I, or by `qs ipc call shell dashboard`. Escape or moving focus away
closes it through a HyprlandFocusGrab; Actions.dashboardClosedAt keeps the
clock click that cleared the grab from reopening it. The clock's calendar
hover is suppressed while the drawer is down, since it shows the month.

Replaces the Persona x Mocha rice. NieR's menu language is kept whole —
plain rectangles, hairline rules, letter-spaced upright capitals, a square
marker on the current row, corner ticks round panels, and selection shown
by inverting the row — but the colours come from ~/.wallpapers/space-1.jpg
rather than from the game's beige: the grey-green void as the ground, the
suit's sage grey as text, the planet's white as the one accent, and the
hull's red indicator lights as the alarm.
The Persona geometry is switched off rather than ripped out: Theme.skew
and Theme.cut are 0, so P5Panel, Skew and Geom collapse to rectangles.
Overshoot easing, italics and black weights are gone shell-wide.
New, borrowed from caelestia's screen border: bar/Frame.qml draws the bar,
the rail and a thin left/bottom band as one hull on the bottom layer, with
the desktop as a rounded opening cut out of it. Frame also owns all four
exclusive zones, so the bar and rail are placed from the screen edge.
Hyprland moves to 1px borders lit from the planet white into grey, a soft
wide shadow and gaps measured from the opening. Alacritty, fish and dunst
get matching YoRHa palettes. Neovim, GTK/Qt and btop are still Mocha.

Mocha's pink is a pastel. Filled at slab size against the near-black
Persona surfaces it went chalky rather than sharp, which is what made
hovered destructive buttons read as a washed-out red. Mauve is saturated
enough to bite against that ground and still cannot be confused with the
blue accent.
Applies across quickshell, Hyprland, dunst, fish and nvim. The GTK
overrides are dropped entirely — stock Catppuccin Mocha Blue already
paints those surfaces, and a hand-written destructive colour there was
one more thing to keep in step for no gain.

Keeps the Takemi geometry — the lean, the chamfer, the slabs — and swaps
the palette wholesale. Mocha carries the ground; blue is the accent for
anything live (focus, selection, borders, hover) and pink is the alarm
for anything destructive or failed, so one hue no longer has to mean
both 'active' and 'wrong'.
Destructive controls rest as a pink keyline and fill solid only when
hovered or selected: Mocha's pink is a pastel, and a resting slab of it
reads as washed-out red rather than as a warning. The load ramp climbs
text -> blue -> pink for the same reason, instead of fading straight
through a muddy mid-tone.
Surfaces covered: quickshell, Hyprland borders, alacritty, fish, dunst,
and nvim (via the catppuccin plugin, submodule branch catppuccin-mocha).
GTK 3/4, Qt and xsettingsd move to catppuccin-mocha-blue and are now
tracked, since nothing else makes non-shell apps match the rice; the
previous Takemi copies are in theme-repair-backups/.

fuzzel could only answer "which app", so launching Brave at a URL meant
picking the app, waiting for it, then typing the address somewhere else.
The launcher now takes a verb and an object in one line: type
`gitlab.enqs.de` and every app that can open it sorts to the top, default
browser first, ready for Enter — or arrow/hjkl down to Brave's New
Incognito Window, which is offered as a peer of Brave itself rather than
hidden behind a submenu.
services/Apps.qml is the brain and holds no UI: it flattens desktop
entries and their actions into one index, classifies the typed argument
(url / mail / path), ranks by fuzzy match plus handler affinity plus
frecency, and launches. Launching through `uwsm app` keeps each app in its
own scope; entries whose Exec declares no field code (Brave's
`--incognito` action, among others) are launched by tokenising Exec per
the Desktop Entry spec and appending the argument, never via `sh -c`.
Four prefixes reuse the same window, so there is one picker and one set of
keys: `>` runs a command, `=` evaluates arithmetic, `:` is clipboard
history (cliphist, which had been a second fuzzel invocation), and a
dmenu mode is driven over IPC.
quickshell/scripts/takemi-dmenu is the bridge for that last one — a
`fuzzel --dmenu` drop-in for scripts that want a picker, symlinked into
~/.local/bin. fluxo's bt menu now goes through it.
Living in the Quickshell process means the window is on screen on the
frame the bind fires, with no process to spawn.
Removes fuzzel entirely: its config, its theme submodule, the package,
and the last consumers (the bar sigil, fluxo's menu_command). Also drops
hypr/scripts/powermenu.sh, which was fuzzel-based and bound to nothing.
