Omarchy

ProbeLabs65 findings · 95 requirements

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.

Original report

`omarchy font set` leaves `bold_font`/`italic_font` stale in kitty.conf — bold text renders the old fontrevision 1 · captured 2026-09-28 21:24 UTC via poll

System details

AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 w/ Radeon 890M (GPD G1628-04 laptop), Omarchy 4.0.1-1, Hyprland 0.56.2, kernel 7.1.9-arch1-2

What's wrong?

omarchy font set "<font>" updated font_family in ~/.config/kitty/kitty.conf but left the explicit bold_font <old-font> line untouched, so bold text in kitty kept rendering with the previous font (in my case Spleen16 Nerd Font). The same command correctly updated alacritty (all face lines match family = "..."), ghostty and foot — kitty is the only managed terminal with separate config lines per face.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Have an explicit bold_font SomeOtherFont line in ~/.config/kitty/kitty.conf (left over from a previous font choice or manual edit)
  2. Run omarchy font set <new-font>
  3. grep -E "font_family|bold_font" ~/.config/kitty/kitty.conf — font_family changed, bold_font still the old font
  4. Bold text in kitty renders with the old font

Root cause in omarchy-font-set:

sed -i "s/^font_family .*/font_family $font_name/g" ~/.config/kitty/kitty.conf

Suggested fix — also rewrite the other face lines (leaving auto values alone, since kitty derives those from font_family):

sed -i "s/^font_family .*/font_family $font_name/g" ~/.config/kitty/kitty.conf
grep -qE '^bold_font auto$' ~/.config/kitty/kitty.conf ||   sed -i "s/^bold_font .*/bold_font $font_name/" ~/.config/kitty/kitty.conf

Happy to send a PR if you'd like. Full omarchy debug --no-sudo --print log available on request.
