**What happened**

On Omarchy 4.0.4-1, the workspace layout toggle (`Super + L`, menu item "Workspace Layout") reports success — notification says `Workspace layout set to dwindle` — but after any Hyprland config reload workspace 1 snaps back to a custom `lua:omarchy-wsl-even` layout. The persisted toggle state is written correctly; it just loses to a rule that loads later.

Side effect that surfaced it: that stale layout is a fixed 50/50 ratio layout that force-places windows on every recalculate, so window resizing (mouse drag, keyboard expand/shrink) silently did nothing on workspace 1 while every other workspace (dwindle) worked.

**Root cause**

Two things write workspace rules on load, and the stale one runs last:

1. `default/hypr/workspace-layouts.lua` restores `~/.local/state/omarchy/workspace-layouts/<ws>.lua` (the toggle's persistence) — early, during default config load.
2. A leftover loader line in the user's `~/.config/hypr/hyprland.lua` runs after all defaults:

```lua
-- Added by the Omarchy Workspace Layout plugin: registers its Lua tiling layouts.
do local path = ... "/hypr/omarchy-workspace-layout.lua"; ... dofile(path) end end
```

That generated file (`~/.config/hypr/omarchy-workspace-layout.lua`, header: "Generated by the Omarchy Workspace Layout plugin. Do not edit.") ends with:

```lua
W.set_workspace("1", "lua:omarchy-wsl-even")
W.set_workspace("2", "dwindle")
...
```

plus a companion `~/.config/omarchy/workspace-layout.json` with `"assignments": { "1": "even" }`.

The plugin that generated these files is gone — not in `omarchy plugin list`, no generator anywhere on disk (files dated Sep 6), and there is no workspace-layout plugin or `omarchy-wsl` code anywhere in this repo (checked the tree at `quattro`) or in `omarchy plugin catalog`. Nothing cleans these leftovers up: the loader line keeps running, and every reload re-applies the stale rule over the toggle's saved state.

**State observed**

- `~/.local/state/omarchy/workspace-layouts/1.lua` says `layout = "dwindle"` (written by the toggle on Oct 7)
- `hyprctl workspaces` after a reload: workspace 1 `tiledLayout: lua:omarchy-wsl-even`
- Both windows on ws1 pinned at exactly 1261/1261 (50/50) no matter what resize was dispatched; the same dispatch on a dwindle workspace changed geometry and stuck

**Workaround applied locally**

Removed the stale pin (`W.set_workspace("1", ...)` → `"dwindle"`, and cleared the json assignment), then `hyprctl reload` — toggle now sticks. Backups kept.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Have a user file loaded after defaults add a workspace rule (here: the leftover `omarchy-workspace-layout.lua` via `hyprland.lua`).
2. Focus workspace 1, press `Super + L` → notification "Workspace layout set to dwindle", layout switches immediately.
3. `hyprctl reload`
4. `hyprctl workspaces` → workspace 1 is back to `lua:omarchy-wsl-even`, while `~/.local/state/omarchy/workspace-layouts/1.lua` still says dwindle.

**Expected**

- Removing a plugin should remove the loader line it added to `hyprland.lua` and its generated files (migration on update), or at least stop loading them.
- The toggle should be authoritative or at least verify: after applying, check `hyprctl activeworkspace -j | .tiledLayout` and warn if it didn't stick instead of always reporting success.

**System**

- Omarchy 4.0.4-1
- Hyprland 0.56.2
- (Note: `omarchy debug --no-sudo --print` doesn't exist in this version — no debug command found via `omarchy commands --all`.)
