Project overview
Omarchy
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). Scope is deliberately limited to those components of omacom/omarchy; the rest of the distribution is not covered.

Problems reported from outside the audit — kept verbatim, then checked: is the claim real, what does it touch, can it be reproduced? Validated reports are shown in full; items still under responsible disclosure appear only as a count until they are released.
