# notifyd Implementation Plan

> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.

**Goal:** A Go daemon that owns `org.freedesktop.Notifications`, applies notification policy, and publishes its state as files that quickshell renderers read, plus a `notifyctl` CLI.

**Architecture:** The daemon is the D-Bus service of the freedesktop notification spec. It keeps a live queue and a history ring in memory, publishes both to `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/notifyd/` on every change with an atomic write, and serves `notifyctl` over a private D-Bus interface. Rendering is a separate plan; this plan produces a daemon that works and is testable on its own through `notifyctl`.

**Tech Stack:** Go, `github.com/godbus/dbus/v5`, `dbus-run-session` for the integration tests, bash for the CLI check.

**Spec:** `docs/superpowers/specs/2026-09-15-notification-daemon-design.md` (in the quickshell repo; read it before starting). The renderer plan is separate.

## Global Constraints

- Go module path `danix.xyz/notifyd`. The only third-party dependency is `github.com/godbus/dbus/v5`; everything else is the standard library.
- GPLv2 only. Ship `LICENSE` with the full GPLv2 text and the standard per-file header notice on every `.go` and `.sh` file.
- The file contract is exact and lives in the spec: `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/notifyd/queue.json`, `history.json`, `drawer`, `snooze`. `created` and `expires` are epoch milliseconds, `0` meaning never.
- D-Bus: well-known name `org.freedesktop.Notifications`, object `/org/freedesktop/Notifications`, interface `org.freedesktop.Notifications`. Private control interface `xyz.danix.Notifyd` at object `/xyz/danix/Notifyd`.
- Identity is `danix`; spec version `1.2`; capabilities `actions`, `body-markup`, `icon-static`, `persistence`.
- Close reasons: `1` expired, `2` dismissed, `3` closed by a `CloseNotification` call.
- No home paths in committed files. `gofmt` clean. `go vet ./...` clean.
- Test commands: `go test ./...` for pure logic, `dbus-run-session -- go test ./internal/notify` for the bus test, `bash test-notifyctl.sh` for the end to end check.
- Work in the `notifyd` repo, not the quickshell repo.

### Task 1: The repository, the module, and the policy functions

**Files:**
- Create: the `notifyd` repo (user step), `go.mod`, `LICENSE`, `README.md`
- Create: `internal/notify/policy.go`
- Test: `internal/notify/policy_test.go`

**Interfaces:**
- Consumes: nothing.
- Produces: `type Urgency string` with `Low`, `Normal`, `Critical`; `UrgencyFromHints(map[string]dbus.Variant) Urgency`; `EffectiveTimeoutMS(expire int32, u Urgency) int64`; `StackTagFromHints(map[string]dbus.Variant) string`; `ParseActions(flat []string) [][2]string`. Every later task uses these.

- [x] **Step 1: Create the repo on the server and clone it** (done)

Created public under the `Linux` cgit section, and cloned to `~/Programming/GIT/notifyd`:

```bash
gitctl -y repo create notifyd --section Linux --desc "Desktop notification daemon for Hyprland: owns org.freedesktop.Notifications, publishes state as files for a quickshell renderer"
git clone danix_git:notifyd ~/Programming/GIT/notifyd
```

All later steps run in `~/Programming/GIT/notifyd`.

- [ ] **Step 2: Initialise the module and the license**

```bash
cd ~/Programming/GIT/notifyd
go mod init danix.xyz/notifyd
go get github.com/godbus/dbus/v5@latest
```

Fetch the GPLv2 text into `LICENSE`:

```bash
curl -fsSL https://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/gpl-2.0.txt -o LICENSE
head -3 LICENSE
```

Expected: `GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE` and `Version 2, June 1991`.

- [ ] **Step 3: Write the failing test for the policy functions**

Create `internal/notify/policy_test.go`:

Run: `go test ./internal/notify`
Expected: PASS.

- [ ] **Step 7: Write `README.md`**

```markdown
# 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`.

## 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.
```

- [ ] **Step 8: Commit**

```bash
gofmt -w . && go vet ./... && go test ./...
git add .
git commit -m "feat: add the module and the notification policy

The policy functions are pure so they are tested without a bus: urgency from
the hints, the timeout rule with its urgency defaults, the two stack tag
spellings, and the action pair parse."
```

### Task 2: The store

**Files:**
- Create: `internal/notify/store.go`
- Test: `internal/notify/store_test.go`

**Interfaces:**
- Consumes: `Urgency`, `Popup` (defined here).
- Produces: `type Popup struct { ID uint32; App, Summary, Body string; Urgency Urgency; Icon string; Actions [][2]string; Created, Expires int64 }` with the exact JSON tags; `type Store`; `NewStore(emit func(id, reason uint32), publish func(live, history []Popup)) *Store`; `(*Store) Add(n *Popup, stack string, replacesID uint32) (id uint32, replaced bool)`; `(*Store) Expire(id uint32)`; `(*Store) Dismiss(id, reason uint32)`; `(*Store) DismissAll()`; `(*Store) ClearHistory()`; `(*Store) Actionable(id uint32) bool`; `(*Store) Reset()`. Tasks 3 to 6 use all of these.

- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing test**

Create `internal/notify/store_test.go`:

- Test: `test-notifyctl.sh`

**Interfaces:**
- Consumes: `Service`, `Store`, `RuntimeDir`, `Popup`.
- Produces: control methods `CloseAll`, `Dismiss(id)`, `InvokeAction(id, key)`, `ClearHistory`; the `notifyctl` verbs `list`, `history [n]`, `close <id>`, `close-all`, `action <id> <key>`, `clear-history`.

set -u

here="$(cd "$(dirname "$0")" && pwd)"
tmp="$(mktemp -d)"
trap 'rm -rf "$tmp"' EXIT

pass=0
fail=0
check() {
    local label="$1" want="$2" got="$3"
    if [[ "$want" == "$got" ]]; then
        printf 'ok   %s\n' "$label"
        pass=$((pass + 1))
    else
        printf 'FAIL %s: want %q, got %q\n' "$label" "$want" "$got"
        fail=$((fail + 1))
    fi
}

go build -o "$tmp/notifyd" "$here/cmd/notifyd" || exit 1
go build -o "$tmp/notifyctl" "$here/cmd/notifyctl" || exit 1

mkdir -p "$tmp/run"
export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR="$tmp/run"
export PATH="$tmp:$PATH"

dbus-run-session -- bash -c '
    set -u
    "$1/notifyd" >"$1/daemon.log" 2>&1 & daemon=$!
    sleep 0.5
    notifyctl close-all >/dev/null 2>&1
    notify-send -a test -u normal "t1" "b1" || exit 3
    sleep 0.3
    echo "$(notifyctl list | grep -c "\"summary\": \"t1\"")"
    notifyctl close-all
    sleep 0.3
    echo "$(notifyctl list | grep -c "\"summary\": \"t1\"")"
    kill $daemon
' _ "$tmp" > "$tmp/out" 2>"$tmp/err"

check "list shows the notification" "1" "$(sed -n 1p "$tmp/out")"
check "close-all empties the live queue" "0" "$(sed -n 2p "$tmp/out")"
check "no errors on stderr" "" "$(cat "$tmp/err")"

printf '\n%d passed, %d failed\n' "$pass" "$fail"
[[ "$fail" -eq 0 ]]
```

The daemon's log goes to its own file, so `$tmp/err` only carries real errors. `notify-send` comes from libnotify, which is installed. The sleeps give the daemon time to claim the name before the first send.

- [ ] **Step 4: Run the check**

Run: `bash test-notifyctl.sh`
Expected: `3 passed, 0 failed`. (Timing is generous: the daemon needs a moment to claim the name before the first `notify-send`, hence the sleeps.)

- [ ] **Step 5: Run everything**

Run: `gofmt -w . && go vet ./... && go test ./... && dbus-run-session -- go test ./... && bash test-notifyctl.sh`
Expected: all pass.

- [ ] **Step 6: Commit**

```bash
chmod +x test-notifyctl.sh
git add .
git commit -m "feat: add the control interface and notifyctl

The private interface carries what the spec cannot: close-all, invoke action
and clear history. notifyctl reads the published files for list and history,
because the files are the interface, and uses D-Bus only for the mutations."
```

### Task 6: notify-snooze.sh

**Files:**
- Create: `scripts/notify-snooze.sh`
- Test: `test-notify-snooze.sh`

**Interfaces:**
- Consumes: `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/notifyd/` (writes `snooze`).
- Produces: `notify-snooze.sh <minutes|off>`, and the last used value in `~/.local/state/notify-snooze.minutes`. The renderer plan reads both files.

- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing check**

Create `test-notify-snooze.sh`:

```bash

tmp="$(mktemp -d)"
trap 'rm -rf "$tmp"' EXIT
export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR="$tmp"
export HOME="$tmp/home"
mkdir -p "$HOME/.local/state"

pass=0; fail=0
check() { if [[ "$2" == "$3" ]]; then echo "ok   $1"; pass=$((pass+1)); else echo "FAIL $1: want $2 got $3"; fail=$((fail+1)); fi; }

before=$(date +%s)
bash "$here/scripts/notify-snooze.sh" 30
snooze="$tmp/notifyd/snooze"
check "writes the snooze file" "yes" "$([[ -f "$snooze" ]] && echo yes)"
delta=$(( $(cat "$snooze") - before ))
check "is about 30 minutes out" "yes" "$([[ $delta -ge 1700 && $delta -le 1900 ]] && echo yes)"
check "remembers the minutes" "30" "$(cat "$HOME/.local/state/notify-snooze.minutes")"
bash "$here/scripts/notify-snooze.sh" off
check "off removes the file" "no" "$([[ -f "$snooze" ]] && echo yes || echo no)"
bash "$here/scripts/notify-snooze.sh" nope >/dev/null 2>&1
check "rejects a bad argument" "1" "$?"

printf '\n%d passed, %d failed\n' "$pass" "$fail"
[[ "$fail" -eq 0 ]]
```

- [ ] **Step 2: Run the check to verify it fails**

Run: `bash test-notify-snooze.sh`
Expected: FAIL, the script does not exist.

- [ ] **Step 3: Write the script**

Create `scripts/notify-snooze.sh`:

```bash
#!/bin/bash
#
# Copyright (C) 2026 Danilo M. <danix@danix.xyz>

# Suppress every notification balloon for a number of minutes. The balloon
# renderer reads the file and withholds them; the daemon is untouched. This is
# deliberate: the notification still arrives, still enters the drawer's list
# and still reaches history, only its balloon is held back.
#
#   notify-snooze.sh 30
#   notify-snooze.sh off

set -u

dir="${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR:-/tmp}/notifyd"
last="${HOME}/.local/state/notify-snooze.minutes"

case "${1:-}" in
    off)
        rm -f "$dir/snooze"
        exit 0
        ;;
    ''|*[!0-9]*)
        printf 'usage: %s <minutes|off>\n' "${0##*/}" >&2
        exit 1
        ;;
esac

mkdir -p "$dir" "$(dirname "$last")"
printf '%s\n' "$(( $(date +%s) + $1 * 60 ))" > "$dir/snooze.tmp"
mv "$dir/snooze.tmp" "$dir/snooze"
printf '%s\n' "$1" > "$last.tmp"
mv "$last.tmp" "$last"
```

- [ ] **Step 4: Run the check to verify it passes**

Run: `bash test-notify-snooze.sh`
Expected: `5 passed, 0 failed`.

- [ ] **Step 5: Commit**

```bash
chmod +x scripts/notify-snooze.sh test-notify-snooze.sh
git add .
git commit -m "feat: add notify-snooze.sh

Snooze is a file the balloon renderer reads, not daemon state: the
notification still arrives, lists and files, only its balloon is withheld.
The last used value is kept under XDG state so a reboot does not forget it."
```

### Task 7: Install and handover

**Files:**
- Modify: `README.md` (add the install and handover section)

**Interfaces:**
- Consumes: the built binaries and scripts.
- Produces: the user runbook that switches the desktop off dunst.

- [ ] **Step 1: Add the install and handover section to `README.md`**

```markdown
## 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`.
```

- [ ] **Step 2: Verify a real notification round trip by hand**

Ask the user to run, with `notifyd` started in another terminal:

```bash
notifyd & sleep 1
notify-send -a test -u normal "hello" "world"
notifyctl list
notifyctl history
```

Expected: `notifyctl list` shows the notification; after it times out or is closed, it is in `notifyctl history`.

- [ ] **Step 3: Run the full suite once more**

Run: `gofmt -w . && go vet ./... && go test ./... && dbus-run-session -- go test ./... && bash test-notifyctl.sh && bash test-notify-snooze.sh`
Expected: all pass.

- [ ] **Step 4: Commit and push**

```bash
git add .
git commit -m "docs: add the install and handover runbook"
git push
```

## Notes for the implementer

**The two lifetimes are the point.** Expiry emits `NotificationClosed(id, 1)` and keeps the entry; dismissal and eviction file it in history. Do not collapse those: a `--wait` client must be freed on time, and the drawer's list must outlive the balloon.

**The file JSON is the interface.** A renderer in another plan parses `queue.json` and `history.json`. Changing a key name breaks it; the spec is the authority.

**`notifyctl` reads files for queries and uses D-Bus only for mutations.** That is deliberate, so a query works even if the bus call would be pointless, and so the files stay the single source the renderers read.

**`replaces_id` reuse emits nothing.** A client that receives a new id owns it; the old client is not told anything, because the notification it sent was replaced, not closed.
