A new GlowText component lights a line from inside: a soft two-layer
halo that breathes slowly, and every 4-14 seconds a short, uneven
stutter like a tube catching. Only opacity and the halo move, so the
glyphs stay on the pixel grid. The lock screen and the power menu use
it; the power menu's stops while it is closed.
- 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 lock screen and the power menu lose the last Persona motion: no split
display type, no grid sweeping in behind a dark column, no tilted slabs, no
skewed password blocks or hard shake. Both are now one small group of type in
the dark — the porthole mark, a line of light display type, a status line, and
either a rounded password field that fills with dots or a NieR menu whose
selected row is a pill of light (rust for the session-ending three). The lock
keeps the wallpaper almost whole; a wrong password nudges the field once and
turns it to rust. P5Backdrop and the grid texture had no users left and go.
Neovim moves to a local yorha colorscheme (nvim submodule) and btop gets a
yorha theme with hairline boxes and grey-to-light gradients.

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.

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.

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/.

A PowerMenu window exists per screen and every one of them lit up on
open. Latch the focused monitor in Actions at open time — same shape as
launcherScreen — and gate each window's open state on it, so exactly one
copy draws and takes keyboard focus.
