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-MERGE-OVERRIDE-WIPES-DEFAULTS

normalize-before-merge wipes unspecified defaults: a label-only user entry erases action/aliases/guards

OpenOpenLow

Low-severity issue, currently open.

Description

The issue as recorded.

normalizeItem materializes every omitted field as an empty default BEFORE mergeMenuSources' per-key overlay. The user's normalized row therefore carries explicit empty action/aliases/when/checked/disabled/icon keys that overwrite the default row's values (F10: merged action becomes ''). The normalization step in the rebuild pipeline defeats the per-key override contract ('a later source overrides only the keys the author declared').

What protects you, and the fix

What limits your exposure today, and the planned remediation.

What protects you now

Default installs ship no label-only overrides; users who override a row restate the fields they care about, masking the wipe

The fix

merge the RAW user entry over the default before normalizing (or make the merge skip empty-string/empty-array values from the overlay source)
