Omarchy

ProbeLabsviewing a historical run

A proof layer — requirements, tests and verified fixes — for two of Omarchy's subsystems: the application menu (launcher scripts, QML model, JSONC config, search and selection) and the lock screen (lock scripts, QML, PAM authentication). Scope is deliberately limited to those components of omacom/omarchy; the rest of the distribution is not covered.

Known issueKI-MENU-GOBACK-ROOT-STRAND

goBack refuses to retrace while activeMenu is root, stranding navStack after a drill that landed on root

OpenOpenLow

Low-severity issue, currently open.

Description

The issue as recorded.

The route code rewrites a missing link target to root before pushing its source (Menu.qml:786-787). An explicit root link or a reload-forced root does the same. Then goBack's root early-return (801) never pops the stack and Back is a permanent no-op (SX26/C04).

What protects you, and the fix

What limits your exposure today, and the planned remediation.

What protects you now

Back at root the menu keeps working; the stranded navStack entry only surfaces if the user drills down and retraces the same path

The fix

pop navStack in goBack even when activeMenu is root, or clear navStack when rewriting the target to root

Blast radius

If you touch this issue, what else may need re-checking — the requirements it affects and the code and tests that hang off them. Historical view: authored trace links only — automatically derived links aren't reconstructible for past runs.
