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-nvim: treesitter query error due to missing compiled vim parserrevision 1 · captured 2026-09-28 21:29 UTC via poll

Problem

Opening Neovim shows a treesitter query error on startup, which blocks normal usage (:q doesn't work because noice.nvim captures the error into a floating window):

/usr/share/nvim/runtime/lua/vim/treesitter/query.lua:373: Query error at 113:4. Invalid node type "tab":
  "tab"
   ^

Cause

The omarchy-nvim package (v2026.3.27) ships nvim-treesitter at commit 8cdffc6d which added "tab" as a vim command node type in runtime/queries/vim/highlights.scm (line 113). However, the data/site/ directory in the package is empty — no compiled treesitter parsers are included.

This means omarchy-nvim-setup copies an empty site/ directory to ~/.local/share/nvim/site/, so Neovim falls back to the vim parser bundled with the neovim Arch package (0.11.7). That system parser is older and doesn't have "tab" in its grammar, causing the query validation error.

Details

  • neovim package: 0.11.7-1
  • omarchy-nvim package: 2026.3.27-1
  • Packaged nvim-treesitter expects vim parser revision 3092fcd99eb87bbd0fc434aa03650ba58bd5b43b
  • System vim parser revision: 3dd4747082d1b717b8978211c06ef7b6cd16125b
  • /usr/share/omarchy-nvim/data/site/ is empty (no compiled parsers shipped)

Workaround

Running :TSInstall! vim inside Neovim installs the correct parser version and resolves the error.

Suggested Fix

Either ship the compiled treesitter parsers in omarchy-nvim's data/site/ directory, or add a TSUpdate / TSInstall! vim step to the setup/migration process.

## Problem

Opening Neovim shows a treesitter query error on startup, which blocks normal usage (`:q` doesn't work because noice.nvim captures the error into a floating window):

```
/usr/share/nvim/runtime/lua/vim/treesitter/query.lua:373: Query error at 113:4. Invalid node type "tab":
  "tab"
   ^
```

## Cause

The `omarchy-nvim` package (v2026.3.27) ships `nvim-treesitter` at commit `8cdffc6d` which added `"tab"` as a vim command node type in `runtime/queries/vim/highlights.scm` (line 113). However, the `data/site/` directory in the package is empty — no compiled treesitter parsers are included.

This means `omarchy-nvim-setup` copies an empty `site/` directory to `~/.local/share/nvim/site/`, so Neovim falls back to the `vim` parser bundled with the `neovim` Arch package (0.11.7). That system parser is older and doesn't have `"tab"` in its grammar, causing the query validation error.

## Details

- `neovim` package: 0.11.7-1
- `omarchy-nvim` package: 2026.3.27-1
- Packaged `nvim-treesitter` expects vim parser revision `3092fcd99eb87bbd0fc434aa03650ba58bd5b43b`
- System vim parser revision: `3dd4747082d1b717b8978211c06ef7b6cd16125b`
- `/usr/share/omarchy-nvim/data/site/` is empty (no compiled parsers shipped)

## Workaround

Running `:TSInstall! vim` inside Neovim installs the correct parser version and resolves the error.

## Suggested Fix

Either ship the compiled treesitter parsers in `omarchy-nvim`'s `data/site/` directory, or add a `TSUpdate` / `TSInstall! vim` step to the setup/migration process.
