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.
searchScore ranking anomalies: apps promoted in-tier, root exact-labels swamped, multi-term matches collapse
Low-severity issue, currently open.
Description
The issue as recorded.
Executed probes: an app and a menu row with equal scores rank app-FIRST (the -5 within-tier nudge). That violates the contract in the code comment 'App rows sort after all menu items' (F15d). An exact label at root scores base 2 while the identical exact label nested deeper scores base 0 (F15f). The root row therefore ranks below its nested twin, and the depth tie-break loses effect. A multi-term query that matchesQuery accepts across fields (one term on the label, one on the description) scores in the unmatched baseline band. That ranks it below a single-field pure match (F15e2 - measured 78000 for the accepted query).

What protects you, and the fix
What limits your exposure today, and the planned remediation.
What protects you now
Ranking anomalies reorder results but never hide them; the wanted entry stays on the results list
The fix
give multi-term queries an aggregation across per-term scores; make the root/nested exact-label bands consistent; reconcile the app nudge with the documented ordering
