-fluxo-rs is a high-performance system metrics daemon and client designed specifically for waybar. It replaces standard shell scripts with a compiled rust binary that collects data via a background polling loop and serves it over a unix domain socket (`/tmp/fluxo.sock`).
+`fluxo` is a high-performance system metrics daemon and client designed specifically for Waybar. It entirely replaces standard shell scripts with a compiled Rust binary that collects data via a background polling loop and serves it over a Unix socket. 
 
-## Description
+With its **100% Native, Content-Based Event-Driven Architecture**, it consumes effectively 0% CPU while idle and signals Waybar to redraw *only* when the rendered UI text or icons physically change.
 
-The project follows a client-server architecture:
-- **Daemon**: Handles heavy lifting (polling cpu, memory, network, gpu) and stores state in memory.
-- **Client**: A thin cli wrapper that connects to the daemon's socket to retrieve formatted json for waybar.
+## Key Features
 
-This approach eliminates process spawning overhead and temporary file locking, resulting in near-zero cpu usage for custom modules.
-
-## Features
-
-- **Ultra-lightweight**: Background polling is highly optimized (e.g., O(1) process counting).
-- **Jitter-free**: Uses zero-width sentinels and figure spaces to prevent waybar from trimming padding.
-- **Configurable**: Fully customizable output formats via toml config.
-- **Interactive Menus**: Integrated support for selecting items (like Bluetooth devices) via external menus (e.g., Rofi, Wofi, Fuzzel).
-- **Live Reload**: Configuration can be reloaded without restarting the daemon.
-- **Multi-vendor GPU**: Native support for intel (igpu), amd, and nvidia.
+- **100% Native Architecture**: Zero shell-outs or subprocesses. Uses `bluer` for Bluetooth, `libpulse-binding` for audio, `zbus` for MPRIS/DND, and `notify` for backlight.
+- **Content-Based Event Signaling**: `fluxo` evaluates your custom configuration formats internally. It only sends a `SIGRTMIN+X` signal to Waybar if the resulting string or CSS class has actually changed, eliminating pointless re-renders from raw polling fluctuations.
+- **Zero-Latency Interactions**: Direct library bindings mean that when you change your volume or connect a Bluetooth device via the CLI, the daemon updates instantly.
+- **Circuit Breaker (Failsafe)**: Automatically detects failing modules and enters a "Cool down" state, preventing resource waste and log spam. Fallback caching keeps your bar looking clean even during brief failures.
+- **Multi-threaded Polling**: Decoupled Tokio subsystem threads ensure that a hang in one system (e.g., a slow GPU probe) never freezes your Waybar.

+
+## Installation
+
+### From Source
+
+```bash
+cargo build --release
+cp target/release/fluxo ~/.cargo/bin/
+```
+
+### Debian/Ubuntu (.deb)
+
+```bash
+cargo install cargo-deb
+cargo deb
+sudo dpkg -i target/debian/fluxo-rs_*.deb
+```
+
+The `.deb` package installs the binary to `/usr/bin/fluxo`, the systemd user service to `/usr/lib/systemd/user/fluxo.service`, and documentation to `/usr/share/doc/fluxo/`.
 
 ## Setup
 
-1. Build the project:
-   ```bash
-   cd fluxo-rs
-   cargo build --release
-   ```
+1. **Configure**: Create `~/.config/fluxo/config.toml` (see `example.config.toml`). Ensure you map your `[signals]`.
+2. **Start the daemon** via systemd (recommended) or manually:
 
-2. Start the daemon:
-   ```bash
-   # Starts the daemon using the default config path (~/.config/fluxo/config.toml)
-   ./target/release/fluxo-rs daemon &
-   
-   # Or provide a custom path
-   ./target/release/fluxo-rs daemon --config /path/to/your/config.toml &
-   ```
+### systemd (recommended)
 
-3. Configuration:
-   Create `~/.config/fluxo/config.toml` (see `example.config.toml` for all default options).
+If installed from the `.deb`, the service file is already in place. For manual installs:
 
-4. Waybar configuration (`config.jsonc`):
-   ```json
-   "custom/cpu": {
-       "exec": "~/path/to/fluxo-rs cpu",
-       "return-type": "json"
-   }
-   ```
-
-## Development
-
-### Architecture
-- `src/main.rs`: Entry point, CLI parsing, interactive GUI spawns (menus), and client-side formatting logic.
-- `src/daemon.rs`: UDS listener, configuration management, and polling orchestration.
-- `src/ipc.rs`: Unix domain socket communication logic.
-- `src/utils.rs`: Generic GUI utilities (like the menu spawner).
-- `src/modules/`: Individual metric implementations.
-- `src/state.rs`: Shared thread-safe data structures.
-
-### Adding a Module
-1. Add the required config block to `src/config.rs`.
-2. Add the required state fields to `src/state.rs`.
-3. Implement the `WaybarModule` trait in a new file in `src/modules/`.
-4. Add polling logic to `src/modules/hardware.rs` or `src/daemon.rs`.
-5. Register the new subcommand in `src/main.rs` and the router in `src/daemon.rs`.
-
-### Configuration Reload
-The daemon can reload its configuration live:
 ```bash
-fluxo-rs reload
+mkdir -p ~/.config/systemd/user
+cp dist/fluxo.service ~/.config/systemd/user/
 ```
 
-### Logging & Debugging
-`fluxo-rs` uses the `tracing` ecosystem. If a module isn't behaving properly or your configuration isn't applying, start the daemon with debug logging enabled in the foreground:
+If your binary is not at `~/.cargo/bin/fluxo`, edit the `ExecStart=` path in the service file.
+
+Then enable and start:
+
 ```bash
-RUST_LOG=debug fluxo-rs daemon
+systemctl --user daemon-reload
+systemctl --user enable --now fluxo
+```
+
+Check status:
+
+```bash
+systemctl --user status fluxo
+journalctl --user -u fluxo -f
+```
+
+### Manual
+
+```bash
+fluxo daemon
+```
+
+## Waybar Configuration
+
+To achieve zero-latency updates and zero-polling CPU usage, set `interval: 0` on your modules and rely entirely on **Waybar Signals** mapped in your `config.toml`:
+
+```jsonc
+"custom/volume": {
+    "exec": "fluxo vol",
+    "return-type": "json",
+    "interval": 0,
+    "signal": 8, // Must match the value in config.toml [signals]
+    "on-click": "fluxo vol mute",
+    "on-scroll-up": "fluxo vol up 1",
+    "on-scroll-down": "fluxo vol down 1",
+    "on-click-right": "fluxo vol cycle"
+},
+"custom/bluetooth-audio": {
+    "format": "{}",
+    "return-type": "json",
+    "exec": "fluxo bt",
+    "on-click": "fluxo bt menu",
+    "on-click-right": "fluxo bt cycle_mode",
+    "signal": 9,
+    "interval": 0,
+    "tooltip": true
+}
+```
+
+## Debugging
+
+Use `--loglevel` to control log verbosity (trace, debug, info, warn, error):
+
+```bash
+fluxo daemon --loglevel debug
+```
+
+Or via the `RUST_LOG` environment variable:
+
+```bash
+RUST_LOG=debug fluxo daemon
+```
+
+For module help and available arguments:
+
+```bash
+fluxo help          # overview of all modules
+fluxo help vol      # detailed help for a specific module
 ```
-This will print verbose information regarding config parsing errors, subprocess failures, and IPC requests.

+//! `fluxo` — high-performance daemon/client for Waybar custom modules.
+//!
+//! The binary has two faces:
+//! * `fluxo daemon` — starts a long-lived process that polls system state
+//!   (network, cpu, audio, bluetooth, …) on background tasks and exposes the
+//!   results over a Unix socket. It also sends `SIGRTMIN+N` signals to Waybar
+//!   when module output changes, so the bar refreshes instantly.
+//! * `fluxo <module> [args]` — a tiny client that asks the daemon to evaluate
+//!   a single module and prints the Waybar-compatible JSON to stdout.
+//!
+//! Modules are feature-gated at compile time (`mod-audio`, `mod-bt`, `mod-dbus`,
+//! `mod-hardware`, `mod-network`) and registered centrally via the
+//! [`for_each_watched_module!`] macro in [`mod@macros`].
