ProbeLabs65 findings · 95 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).

Original report
System details
- Omarchy 4.0.4-1
- Hyprland 0.56.2, hyprsunset 0.4.0-3
- CPU: Intel Core i5-10300H
- GPU: Intel UHD (CometLake-H) + NVIDIA GTX 1650 Mobile
What's wrong
omarchy toggle nightlight (Super + Ctrl + N) does nothing when another user on the same machine has a Hyprland session with hyprsunset running.
bin/omarchy-toggle-nightlight checks whether hyprsunset is running with:
if ! pgrep -x hyprsunset >/dev/null; then
setsid uwsm-app -- hyprsunset &
fipgrep matches processes of every user, so it finds the other user's hyprsunset and never starts one for the current session. Then hyprctl hyprsunset temperature ... fails because there's no socket in the current Hyprland instance:
Couldn't connect to /run/user/1001/hypr/<signature>/.hyprsunset.sock. (3)The toggle exits silently and the screen temperature never changes.
Steps to reproduce
- Log in as user A in Hyprland and run
omarchy toggle nightlight(hyprsunset starts for user A). - Without logging out user A, switch to user B and log in to Hyprland.
- As user B, press Super + Ctrl + N (or run
omarchy toggle nightlight). - Nothing happens.
hyprctl hyprsunset temperaturereturns the "Couldn't connect" error, andpgrep -u "$USER" hyprsunsetreturns nothing.
Expected
The toggle starts hyprsunset for the current user's session and changes the temperature.
Suggested fix
Limit the check to the current user:
if ! pgrep -u "$USER" -x hyprsunset >/dev/null; thenOther pgrep -x checks in bin/ might need the same change.
