# notifyd
A freedesktop notification daemon for this desktop, replacing dunst.
The daemon owns `org.freedesktop.Notifications` and holds the state. It
publishes the live queue and the history ring as JSON under
`$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/notifyd/` for a quickshell renderer to draw, and `notifyctl`
is the only thing that talks back over D-Bus.
go build ./...
The design and the exact file contract are in the quickshell repo, at
`docs/superpowers/specs/2026-09-15-notification-daemon-design.md`.
## Install and handover
Build and install the two binaries and the script, beside the statusctl CLI:
go build -o ~/bin/notifyd ./cmd/notifyd
go build -o ~/bin/notifyctl ./cmd/notifyctl
install -m 755 scripts/notify-snooze.sh ~/bin/notify-snooze.sh
dunst is not removed until this proves itself. To switch:
1. Stop dunst (`pkill -x dunst` or its service) so the bus name is free.
2. Add `hl.exec_cmd("notifyd")` to `~/.config/hypr/sections/autostart.lua`,
beside the quickshell lines.
3. Change `rofipass`'s one `dunstctl close-all` to `notifyctl close-all`.
4. Start `notifyd` and send a test notification.
The renderer that draws the balloons is a separate plan; until it ships the
queue is visible through `notifyctl list`.

## Development Approach
This project is developed using AI-assisted tools. Code is generated with the help of AI based on human-provided specifications, design decisions, and iterative feedback.
All contributions are reviewed, tested, and curated by the maintainer before being included in the codebase. AI is used as a productivity and exploration tool, while human oversight remains central to all decisions.
The goal is to combine the flexibility of AI-assisted development with standard open-source practices such as transparency, review, and accountability.
