Project overview

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.

System details

omarchy quattro

What's wrong?

cases where i found this:
- Setup → Defaults → Browser: briefly lists browsers that aren't installed before settling on the installed ones.
- Trigger → Capture → Screenrecord: after stopping a recording, reopening the menu still shows "Stop Screenrecording" for a moment before it disappears.
-
The menu evaluates each row's visibility/checked condition in a single background step when it opens. With ~175 conditions, many shelling out to slow commands (package presence, default browser, hardware checks) the evaluation takes a couple of seconds, and until it finishes the menu shows the previous (stale) results.

I attempted a fix in #6594, but after testing I realized it isn't that simple the root cause is how visibility guards are evaluated.

Simply hiding rows until they're evaluated would make the menu slow to open. The proper fix i think is to make the evaluation fast caching/batching the expensive lookups. This probably affects many guarded rows beyond the two examples.
