ProbeLabs73 findings · 87 requirementsA 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.
normalizeItem edge cases: null parent kept, boolean guards preserved, action:0 mis-kinded, numeric labels
Low-severity issue, currently open.
Description
The issue as recorded.
normalizeItem infers the parent only when the parent field equals undefined (F17a). An explicit null parent therefore stays null, and the path helpers then coerce it. A boolean when/checked/disabled passes the ||-default and later throws inside guard generation (F17b). Kind derives from truthiness so action:0 yields a menu row (F17c). The code stores a numeric label as a number. A non-string alias stringifies to '[object Object]', which the search index then matches for the term 'object' (F23).

What protects you, and the fix
What limits your exposure today, and the planned remediation.
What protects you now
Every trigger needs malformed user JSONC (null parent, boolean guards, numeric labels); the shipped menus stay well-formed
The fix
treat null like undefined for parent, coerce when/checked/disabled to strings or reject non-strings, String() the label, and filter aliases to strings
