Two things still assumed Catppuccin. The QML header hardcoded "Catppuccin
Macchiato" regardless of the scheme in use, and the selftest asserted that an
orange input snaps to a colour named "peach", which is true only under
Catppuccin: Tokyo Night calls that hue "orange" and the test failed the moment
the scheme changed.
The header now names the scheme it generated from. The snapping assertions
test the property instead of the spelling: an input must land within 0.6 rad
of its own hue, and a border neighbour must sit nearer the accent than its
opposite. Both hold under any palette.
Verified: --selftest passes under macchiato, tokyo-night, nord and dracula.

Colours were written down five times: rofi's palette.rasi, the waybar theme,
the kitty theme, the conky and dunst templates, and a MACCHIATO dict inside
udt-accent. Changing scheme meant finding all five, and they had already
drifted: the active waybar theme was Macchiato while theme.css next to it was
Mocha, and nothing imported the latter.
Now a scheme is two files. palette/<scheme>.conf holds the colours under the
scheme's own names, and palette/roles-<scheme>.conf says what each is for.
palette/roles.conf is one `scheme =` line selecting the pair. bin/udt-palette
renders that into each consumer's syntax and install.sh runs it first.
The role map is per-scheme rather than shared because the palettes are
genuinely different shapes: Nord has no `base`, Dracula no `surface0`, and
forcing Catppuccin's names onto them would have meant either renaming their
colours or inventing values. A role names a palette colour with two optional
modifiers, `name/75` for alpha and `name*50` for brightness. The second exists
because GTK's shade() has no palette name to point at.
Ships macchiato, tokyo-night, nord and dracula. --selftest resolves every role
in every scheme and asserts they define the same set, so a scheme that cannot
satisfy a consumer fails at install rather than when someone switches to it.
Verified against the live configs: all 46 waybar colours resolve identically to
the previously active theme including its alpha() and shade() derivations, the
kitty theme is colour-for-colour identical, and the rofi palette has the same
26 values. Generated files are gitignored; switching scheme and switching back
reproduces the originals.

colors.json recorded whatever path it was handed, so it read either the real
wallpaper or ~/.cache/wal/wpaper, the symlink to it, depending on the caller.
wallp passes the resolved file; a manual run usually passes the symlink. Same
wallpaper either way, so record one spelling.
write_atomic arrived with the quickshell palette but only write_border used
it. The other four writers kept their own copy of the same write-then-rename,
which is the duplication the helper was added to remove, so they use it now.
No behaviour change: the temp file was already created by mkstemp in every
case, so the resulting modes are the same.
Verified by running the script before and after: udt-palette.qml,
udt-accent.rasi and udt-border.lua are byte-identical, and colors.json differs
only in the wallpaper field this commit intends to change.

udt-accent now writes ~/.cache/wal/udt-palette.qml alongside the accent,
border and colors.json it already produced. Quickshell components read it
and watch it, so editing the palette here recolours a running shell
without restarting it.
Unlike the other outputs this one is not only the accent: it carries the
structural colours too. Those are parsed out of rofi/udt/palette.rasi
rather than restated in the script, so that file stays the single place
the Macchiato values are written down. Hardcoding them a second time
here is exactly the drift this is meant to remove: the quickshell
components each had their own copy before this.
The atomic write that write_border already did by hand is now a helper,
write_atomic, used by both. Every generated file is watched by something,
and a torn read shows up as a theme that briefly loses its colours.
colors.json is untouched by this change, verified by running the script
before and after and comparing.

An X11 leftover nothing reads under Wayland. Nothing sources it, and every

The GPG PIN dialog was the last unthemed Qt6 app. pinentry-qt links Qt6
despite the name, but gpg-agent is spawned from .bashrc and reparented to
init, so it never inherits the QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME that Hyprland sets for
its own children, and every pinentry it spawns fell back to Fusion.
Also restructures the document: it was headed "phase 1 (rofi)" and now
covers more than rofi, so the phase is a section rather than the title.

udt-accent now rewrites ~/.cache/wal/colors.json as a fixed Catppuccin
Macchiato palette with the wallpaper's accent in the cursor and the two
highlight slots, then runs `pywalfox update`.
colors.json is the only file pywalfox reads, so this is the only way Firefox
can follow the accent. Overwriting it wholesale costs nothing: wallp already
rewrote it moments earlier via `wal --theme`, and nothing else consumes it.
kitty reads its own current-theme.conf, so the terminal palette is unaffected.

Records what cost real time to discover: that rofi's -dump-theme normalises
values and cannot tell you what renders, that measuring screenshot pixels beats
reasoning about the box model, that GTK3's theme comes from gsettings rather
than settings.ini on Wayland, that ClearlyU shadows Private Use Area glyphs in
fontconfig fallback, and why accent extraction must not go through wal -i.
CLAUDE.md is a thin pointer at it, matching the user's global convention.

Brings the terminal onto the same monospace font as the rest of the desktop.
The live setting is inside the BEGIN_KITTY_FONTS block managed by kitty's font
kitten; a stale commented-out font_family line above it was removed, since it
looked authoritative but had no effect.
Size left at 13.0. Inconsolata reads slightly smaller than CommitMono at the
same nominal size, the same difference that needed a 2px bump in waybar.

These were deliberately left until last: wallpaper-derived colours in kitty's
ANSI slots were the original readability problem, since nothing in a wallpaper
guarantees color4 stays legible against color0. A hand-tuned palette is safe for
the opposite reason, so the move is onto Macchiato rather than back onto pywal.
current-theme.conf was a symlink into the wal cache and is now a real file.
wal.sh no longer recreates that symlink, which would have silently reverted the
theme on the next wallpaper change.
Neovim read the same pywal output via colorscheme pywal and now uses the
catppuccin/nvim plugin. Its airline theme was base16_dracula, matching nothing;
it is now base16, which derives from the active colorscheme.
Measured before committing: every ANSI slot clears 4.5:1 against its own
background in both themes except color0, which is the near-background slot in
both. color8, used by some colourschemes for comments, does drop from 3.83:1 to
2.38:1, but the Catppuccin neovim plugin sets its own comment colour rather than
using ANSI 8, confirmed on screen.

Inconsolata renders smaller than Commit Mono at the same nominal size, so

Waybar was already Catppuccin Macchiato with a lavender accent, using the same
hex values as the rofi palette, so only the font needed changing: it asked for
Commit Mono Nerd Font, a third family outside the Noto Sans and Inconsolata
pair. Monospace is kept deliberately, since a status bar is dense and numeric
and proportional text makes values jitter as they update.
Also records that the CSS load order in waybar's own CLAUDE.md is stale. The
modules-*.css and states.css files it documents are not imported by anything;
style.css pulls in styles/main.css instead. One of the dead files holds a
font-family declaration that looks authoritative but has no effect.

Installs the upstream Catppuccin Kvantum and GTK themes and points all four
toolkits at them. Qt5 and Qt6 previously disagreed with each other as well as
with the desktop: qt5ct carried a hand-rolled grey/purple palette and qt6ct used
the stock darker.conf. Both now take their palette from Kvantum.
Two things were not where they looked. GTK3's theme comes from gsettings on
Wayland, not settings.ini, and gsettings was pinned to Breeze, which silently
overrode the file; its icon-theme was likewise on breeze-dark while
settings.ini said Material-Black-Plum-Suru. GTK4 ignores gtk-theme-name
entirely, so its stylesheet is symlinked into ~/.config/gtk-4.0 instead.
The accent is fixed rather than wallpaper-tracking, since Qt and GTK apps only
reread a theme on restart. Lavender also replaces mauve as udt-accent's
fallback so everything without a wallpaper-derived accent agrees.
catppuccin/gtk is archived upstream. v1.0.3 works today but will not track
future libadwaita changes; it is removable by deleting the directory.
The tracked qt5ct/qt6ct files carry only the theme-relevant keys: the live
files also hold an ignored_applications list of local paths.

Only the seven colour definitions in conky.config changed. The conky.text
block is byte-identical: its layout is column-based on absolute ${goto} pixel
offsets, so touching label widths or glyphs would need every goto on that line
re-tuned.
Mapping keeps each colour's role and its light/dark relationship, so the widget
reads the same: headings and glyphs to lavender, field labels to teal, accent
glyphs to mauve, separators to surface1, values to text.
Conky does not hot-reload, so this needs a restart to take effect.

Notifications previously drew their colours from the pywal preset, so they were
pure black on white and did not match anything else. Structural colours are now
fixed Macchiato, with the accent as the frame on normal urgency, a muted
surface frame on low, and Macchiato red on critical. Font moves to Noto Sans to
match the rest of the desktop.
udt-accent substitutes the accent after pywal renders the template, then
restarts dunst so it rereads the file. It restarts rather than just killing:
nothing else respawns dunst, and a dead dunst means no notifications at all.
Also fixes a dangling reference: the template pointed dunst's dmenu at
darknix/main.rasi, a theme that no longer exists.
The template is tracked here as templates/dunstrc; the live copy is
~/.config/wal/templates/dunstrc.

Replaces the six-stop RGB rainbow with the current accent plus its two
neighbours on the perceptual hue wheel. The borderangle animation rotates a
gradient, so it needs more than one colour to show motion; neighbouring hues
keep that motion legible without leaving the palette.
Emitted as Lua rather than a .conf snippet. Hyprland's Lua parser refuses
hyprctl keyword ("keyword can't work with non-legacy parsers") and has no
source directive, so look_and_feel.lua reads the generated table with dofile()
and falls back to a fixed Macchiato triple when it is absent.

The fullscreen ground drops to 88% opacity so the desktop stays faintly
visible behind it, which keeps the menu reading as a layer over the session
rather than a screen that replaced it.
Written as an explicit rgba of the same colour rather than @base, since the
palette entries carry a hard ff alpha.

The yes/no gate in front of shutdown was still on the old adi1090x theme, so
every shutdown showed a Macchiato power menu followed by a dialog that did not
match it.
Its glyphs now come from the theme's own Nerd Font rather than `feather`. That
meant changing the codepoints the script sends, since the originals were
Private Use Area points that only feather carries: they are now the Material
circled check and close (U+F05E0, U+F0159), which Inconsolata Nerd Font Mono
contains. Sized 42 to match the power menu, since the Material glyphs carry a
lot of internal padding and render small.
Worth knowing for future glyph choices: ClearlyU is installed and claims large
parts of the Private Use Area, so it can win fontconfig's fallback and draw a
blank where another font actually has the glyph. The U+F0xxx Nerd Font ranges
avoid that.

Each row is a glyph followed by its name, and five columns in a 680px window
left cells too narrow for the name to survive. Three columns in a 1500px
window gives about 485px a cell.
Names are also left-aligned now rather than centred, since a row is a label
rather than a lone symbol, and the glyph font drops from 20 to 16 so the name
carries the row.

The widget only honours its margin. An explicit width with expand:false
collapses it to a line, and a percentage margin resolves against the whole
window rather than the padded column, which tiled the image across a 2560px
screen. So the width comes from a pixel margin derived from the content
column, and it has to equal the height the row gives the widget (220px) for
the 100% radius to draw a circle instead of an ellipse.
Also bounds the content column, which was previously full screen width: four
options spread across ~640px cells read as scattered glyphs and the selection
highlight became a slab.
Measured from screenshots rather than guessed: the avatar renders 220x220,
ratio 1.000, centred within a pixel.

Sizing the widget with an explicit width and height collapsed it, so nothing
was drawn. The original type-4 theme sized it with a horizontal margin instead,
letting the widget expand to the window and squeezing it back to a square, so
do that.
The margin is computed with calc() from 50% rather than the original's
hardcoded 710px, which assumed one screen width and would sit off-center on a
second monitor.
The tilde path was never the problem: rofi does expand it inside a url().

Three regressions from collapsing five theme systems into three layouts.
The layouts hardcoded `children`, which silently dropped any -mesg a script
passed. rofipass lost its keybinding cheatsheet and the power menu lost its
uptime line. list.rasi now lists the message widget; rofi hides it when there
is no message, so it costs nothing when unused.
The power menu was never a small menu. It is a deliberate fullscreen prompt
with a greeting, an avatar and one row of four large glyphs, and menu.rasi
flattened all of it. It gets its own layout, the one place where a prompt earns
its keep. The glyphs are drawn in Inconsolata Nerd Font Mono, which was
verified to contain all four; the old theme asked for `feather`, which contains
none of them and was relying on fallback.
The emoji picker is a dense grid of glyphs, not a list, and wasted most of a
single-column window. It gets grid.rasi, sized near the launcher's icons.

Twelve call sites repointed, backups in /data/udt-backup.
Also records three things found during the migration: rofipass was passing a
-width flag that rofi 2.0.0 no longer has, the type-4 power menu reuses one
directory variable for two different themes, and ddgr_search.py is a rofi
script-mode plugin rather than a call site.

Matches the launcher position already in use (north-anchored, 600px, single
column) rather than the centered grid, and restores the wallpaper banner behind
the input area from the old darknix theme.
The wallpaper path cannot be committed: rofi does not expand a tilde inside a
url(), and an absolute path would bake in a home directory. So launcher.rasi
carries a placeholder and the installer generates the real file. The entry sits
on a solid plate so it stays legible over a bright wallpaper.

Installs by symlink so the repo stays canonical and the working config cannot

Holds the identity every layout inherits: Noto Sans for UI text, Inconsolata
Nerd Font Mono for monospace (both matching the existing Qt and GTK settings),
one border radius, and one selected-element treatment of accent background with
base-colored text.
accent.rasi is committed as a mauve placeholder so the imports resolve before
any wallpaper has been processed. On install it is replaced by a symlink to the
generated file.

Calls pywal.backends.colorz.get() directly rather than running `wal -i`. That
function returns a list and writes nothing, so the preset-driven cache that
kitty, dunst and neovim read is left alone. `wal -i` has no isolation flag and
would rewrite all of ~/.cache/wal, reintroducing the unreadable-terminal
problem the preset was adopted to fix.
Writes atomically, so a rofi launch concurrent with a wallpaper change cannot
read a half-written theme. A missing or broken image falls back to mauve rather
than leaving no accent at all.
Verified across six wallpapers with colors.json byte-identical afterward.

Matches in CIELAB rather than HLS: HLS hue is not perceptually uniform and
mismatched obvious cases during prototyping, snapping orange to yellow and
saturated red to flamingo.
The candidate set is nine, not all fourteen. rosewater and flamingo are
near-neutral tints that carry a hue angle but almost no chroma, so they
captured saturated inputs; maroon, sapphire and lavender duplicate the hues of
red, sky and mauve without adding visible range.

The plan claimed rofi 1.7.3, taken from a stale comment header in the user's
config.rasi. The installed version is 2.0.0.
Adds a `-dump-theme` parse check to the palette and each layout task. This
catches syntax errors without a display, which the plan previously treated as
impossible and deferred entirely to visual inspection. Every theme file in the
plan was verified to parse cleanly on 2.0.0.
Replaces the palette verification step, which built a throwaway wrapper theme
via printf just to have something that draws. A palette defines variables and
renders nothing, so there was nothing to look at; parsing is the real check.

Investigation while planning showed the spec's accent model could not work as
written. wallp invokes pywal with --theme, not -i, so colors come from a fixed
preset and never track the wallpaper: snapping would have mapped a constant to
a constant.
The obvious fix, switching to wallpaper-derived pywal, would have regressed a
problem the user had already solved. Wallpaper colors land in kitty's sixteen
ANSI slots, where nothing guarantees color4 stays legible against color0, which
is what made neovim comments disappear. Rofi is not exposed to that, since it
uses one accent against a fixed base.
So extraction now calls pywal.backends.colorz.get() directly. It returns a list
and writes nothing, leaving the preset cache that kitty, dunst and neovim read
untouched. Verified across six wallpapers with colors.json byte-identical after.
Also replaces HLS hue matching with CIELAB, after prototyping showed HLS
snapping orange to yellow and red to flamingo, and narrows the candidate set to
nine accents, dropping near-neutral tints and duplicate hues that captured
saturated inputs.

Catppuccin Macchiato base with a pywal-driven accent snapped to the nearest
named Macchiato accent. Phase 1 scope is rofi: collapse five theme systems
into three shared layouts over one palette, covering eleven call sites.
Records the four brainstorming decisions and the alternatives rejected, so
later phases (waybar, dunst, kitty, conky, hyprland, quickshell) reuse the
mechanism rather than relitigate it.
