AI pill: several Ollama servers (pills.ai.servers, comma-separated, in order): the model list shows all their models, a question goes to the first server that has the chosen one; a local ollama is started only when no other server has it

A playing pill cost the iGPU about 2.9 ms and the CPU 3.7 ms a frame, 60 frames a
second: two vello passes over the whole island window for the surface's shadow and
gradients (vello keeps no gradient between frames) and one for the bars. Now 0.4 ms
GPU and 1.2 ms CPU. The open card went from 5.2 to 2.6 ms GPU and 6.2 to 3.4 ms CPU
a frame. surface.wgsl draws every design's shadow, fill and inner gradient in one
pass, with vello's own blurred-rectangle formula

+Handoff for agents continuing work on the Magic Island shell (Hermes, Claude Code, Codex, a new session). Read README.md first for what the shell does and how to use it; this file is how it's built, how to work on it, and where things stand. Last updated 2026-10-15.
 
 ## Where things are
 
 - **This repo:** `/root/amane-config` on the dev host; remote `git@server1:fabolous005/amane-config.git`.
-- **Amane library and docs:** `/root/amane` (`docs/src/*.md`, source in `src/`). The desktop has its own copy at `~/git/amane`.
+- **Amane library:** `/root/amane` (docs in `docs/src/*.md`). The desktop builds against its own, different copy at `~/git/amane`; type-check against a copy of that one (see Develop).
 - **Hermes skill `amane`** (`~/.hermes/skills/software-development/amane/`): distilled Amane docs plus lessons. `references/recipe-media-island.md` and `references/remote-visual-testing.md` cover this project; `scripts/` holds copies of `tools/` (keep them in sync).
-- **Desktop:** `ssh -o BatchMode=yes fabian@192.168.2.169`. Hyprland 0.56.2 with a **Lua** config (`~/.config/hypr/*.lua`; API stubs in `/usr/share/hypr/stubs/hl.meta.lua`). Intel Xe iGPU (Raptor Lake). Monitors: eDP-1 1920×1200 at 1920,620; HDMI-A-1 1920×1080 at 0,620; DP-2 1920×1080 at 3840,0; HDMI-A-4 at 5760,0 only when connected (on 2026-10-13 three were connected, all 1920 wide). `~/.config/amane` on the desktop is a git checkout of this repo.
-- **Desktop daemons the control centre uses:** OpenRC services `iwd` (Wi-Fi), `bluetooth` (bluez), `openvpn.<name>` (VPN); doas rule `permit nopass fabian` for `rc-service`, `sh` and `cat`; `wl-copy`, `ip`, `lspci`. iwd and bluetoothd are often stopped; the shell then greys their tiles.
+- **Desktop:** `ssh -o BatchMode=yes fabian@192.168.2.169`. Hyprland 0.56.2 with a **Lua** config (`~/.config/hypr/*.lua`; API stubs in `/usr/share/hypr/stubs/hl.meta.lua`). Intel Xe iGPU (Raptor Lake) plus an eGPU (RX 6600). Monitors: eDP-1 1920×1200 at 1920,620; HDMI-A-1 1920×1080 at 0,620; DP-2 1920×1080 at 3840,0; HDMI-A-4 at 5760,0 only when connected. `~/.config/amane` on the desktop is a git checkout of this repo.
+- **Desktop daemons the shell uses:** OpenRC services `iwd`, `bluetooth`, `openvpn.<name>`, `ollama` (stopped by default; `gemma4:e4b`, listens on 0.0.0.0:11434, runs on the eGPU); doas rule `permit nopass fabian` for `rc-service`, `sh` and `cat`; gnome-keyring as the Secret Service (`secret-tool`); `wl-copy`, `ip`, `lspci`, `ghostty`, `btm`. iwd and bluetoothd are often stopped; the shell then greys their tiles.
 
 ## Ground rules from the user
 
-- **Branch per big change, ask before merging.** New branch for each big change; merge into `master` only after explicit approval. "In main branch" or "merge directly to main" means commit straight to master. Small follow-ups in the same request can share a branch. **Push only when the user asks.**
+- **Branch per big change, ask before merging.** Merge into `master` only after explicit approval. "In main branch" or "merge directly to main" means commit straight to master. Small follow-ups in the same request can share a branch. **Push only when the user asks.**
 - **Never touch the user's real players' sound** (Cider, Firefox). Before any `island preset|output` call or volume change, check `amane ipc call island status` names a fake test player. Test audio goes to the inaudible null sinks.
-- **The user's own amane:** they sometimes run it from a terminal. Don't kill it without asking; `tools/amane-remote.sh start` refuses when it finds a shell it didn't start.
-- **Desktop access is SSH only.** Don't probe the network, SSH keys or other hosts. If SSH fails, report it and wait (the user once had to restart sshd).
+- **The user's own amane:** their session starts one at login. Don't kill it without asking; `tools/amane-remote.sh start` refuses when it finds a shell it didn't start.
+- **Desktop access is SSH only.** Don't probe the network, SSH keys or other hosts. If SSH fails, report it and wait. The user may be at the desktop while you test: if workspaces change or cards close by themselves, stop the on-screen tests.
 - **Leave the desktop clean** after testing: fake players and null sinks stopped, shell running without the frame log (see "After testing").
 - **Edit files with the patch/write tools, not scripts that rewrite files.** The user installs missing tools themselves. Scripts take instance values (hosts, names) as arguments.
-- **D-Bus only for reading status.** Actions go through the CLIs: `iwctl` to join, scan and disconnect, `bluetoothctl` to pair and connect (the user had a D-Bus agent version reverted, `afe963d`). The one exception, chosen by the user: the shell serves `org.kde.StatusNotifierWatcher` and calls tray apps' dbusmenus for the tray. Ask before serving anything else on the bus.
-- **Never wake iwd by accident:** any D-Bus call to `net.connman.iwd` starts it (it then joins Wi-Fi and adds a route). Check `org.freedesktop.DBus.NameHasOwner` first; only talk to it while it has an owner.
-- **Root only through `doas -n` with fixed command lines** (`rc-service <svc> start|stop`, `cat /var/lib/iwd/<profile>.psk`). Strings from other programs (SSIDs, device names, D-Bus metadata) go to `Command` args, never into `amane::spawn`/`output` (`sh -c`). Passwords go to `wl-copy` on stdin, never as an argument; iwctl's `--passphrase` is visible in `ps` for about a second, which the user accepted.
-- Hermes approval prompts are switched off; edits to AGENTS.md may still prompt (`security.protected_instruction_files`), and the user approves AGENTS.md rewrites first.
+- **No hardcoded tuning values:** every size, timing, text size, colour or interval is a setting in `config.rs` (see Settings).
+- **Blur strength is Hyprland's only** (`decoration.blur.*`; the user keeps size 1 and the layer rule's `ignore_alpha = 0.5`). The shell never sets it.
+- **D-Bus mostly for reading status.** Actions go through the CLIs: `iwctl`, `bluetoothctl` (a D-Bus agent version was reverted, `afe963d`). The shell serves only what the user chose: `org.kde.StatusNotifierWatcher` (tray) and `org.freedesktop.Notifications` (Amane's own server; dunst is commented out in `~/.config/hypr/autocmds.lua`, backup `autocmds.lua.before-amane-notifications`). Ask before serving anything else.
+- **Never wake iwd by accident:** any D-Bus call to `net.connman.iwd` starts it. Check `NameHasOwner` first.
+- **Root only through `doas -n` with fixed command lines.** Strings from other programs go to `Command` args, never into `amane::spawn`/`output` (`sh -c`). Secrets go on stdin: `wl-copy`, `secret-tool store`, curl's `-K -` for the calendar. Never put a password in a file, an argument or a log.
+- **Local AI only:** the AI card talks to Ollama on the desktop, never a cloud service. Phone stats are out for now.
+- Edits to AGENTS.md prompt for approval (`security.protected_instruction_files`); a timed-out prompt is a no: don't retry by another path. Keep this file near 20k characters, Hermes's load limit.
 - Report honestly what was and wasn't checked on the real desktop.
 
 ## Current state
 
-**master** (pushed): the island (pill, card, CD ring, EQ, output and player switching, hover animations, instant transport buttons), an idle pill when no player is open, one island per monitor (card on one monitor, live bars only on the focused one), a workspace pill per monitor, and wallpaper colours through matugen. Merged from `control-centre` on 2026-10-13, then extended on master:
+**master** (pushed): the island (pill, card, CD ring, EQ, output and player switching, hover animations), an idle pill without players, one island per monitor (live bars only on the focused one), a workspace pill per monitor, wallpaper colours through matugen, and:
 
-- **Control centre** (top right): a status pill (Wi-Fi or hotspot, VPN, Bluetooth, Ethernet, battery; icons of stopped services hidden) that opens a panel: tiles for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, VPN, Hotspot, Ethernet; volume with the output, brightness, keyboard light, performance mode, external-GPU programs. The panel morphs into its menus as one shape: Wi-Fi and Bluetooth maps (devices floating round this computer, click to join/pair, right-click a saved network for its password, click the centre to search again), VPN list, sound outputs, Ethernet details with copyable addresses. The maps reach from the right edge to the island's pill, less 16 px. Popups (`magic-prompt`) ask for passwords, PINs and passkeys and say why something failed.
+- **Control centre** (top right): status pill opening a panel with tiles (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, VPN, Hotspot, Ethernet), volume, brightness, keyboard light, performance mode, eGPU programs, Settings (gear). The panel morphs into its menus as one shape: Wi-Fi and Bluetooth maps, VPN list, sound outputs, Ethernet details. Popups (`magic-prompt`) ask for passwords, PINs and passkeys.
 - **System tray** right of the workspace pill.
-- **Bar hiding:** only on monitors showing a fullscreen window; the pointer resting on the top edge brings it back. Events bring one part in for a moment (a peek): the workspace pill alone on a workspace change, the island on a song change or a new player. A peek starts from where the part is, so switching from a shown bar to a fullscreen workspace keeps the workspace pill still (no dip) while the tray leaves on its own.
-- **Reserved space:** windows that aren't fullscreen stay below the bar (44 px at the top of every monitor).
+- **Bar hiding** only on monitors showing a fullscreen window; the top edge brings it back. Peeks: the workspace pill on a workspace change; the island on a song change or new player, but not when the focused window's class is the playing player (`parse::same_app`).
+- **Workspaces:** a removed empty workspace's slot shrinks and fades during the slide; a created one (`createworkspacev2`) grows in.
+- **Reserved space:** windows that aren't fullscreen stay below the bar (44 px).
+- **Settings:** `~/.config/amane/config.toml` holds every shell setting with its help; the config window edits them plus every Hyprland option. Saves are serialised by `config::WRITTEN`, and the file watch skips the shell's own saves (an earlier race reset settings to defaults).
+- **Glass designs:** `appearance.surface.design` = solid / frosted / liquid, drawn by `surface::shell()` on every surface. The user keeps all three and may want more. The old branches `glass-base`, `design-frosted`, `design-liquid` (also on origin) are superseded; deleting them was asked, no answer.
 
-On 2026-10-13 the user was asked to try the mouse-only parts (tray clicks, top-edge hover reveal, Copy buttons, PIN pairing) and answered "All works"; the agent itself only drove them over IPC.
+**Branch `side-pills`** (pushed, not merged; the user tries it first): two one-icon pills left of the island (AI, System) and two right (Home, Notifications); see Architecture and README "Side pills".
 
-**Open design branches** (pushed, not merged; the user is reviewing them). They branched from `036b326`, 13 commits before master's control-centre work; merging one will need a rebase (conflicts not checked yet):
+**On the desktop:** the agent-started shell (pid in `~/.cache/amane-remote-test/shell.pid`, stderr in `shell.err`) runs the `side-pills` build; the user's login shell was stopped with their approval. `config.toml` has `pills.ai.model = gemma4:e4b`, design frosted at 0.7. `~/.config/hypr/hyprland.lua` did not `require("amane")` (checked 2026-10-15), so Hyprland options set in the window are lost on a reload; the user was told.
 
-| Branch | What it is |
-|---|---|
-| `glass-base` | `glass` (0.05 to 1, default 1 = solid) in `shell.conf`; new `src/surface.rs` with `shell()`, which draws the island, idle pill and workspace pill; with glass below 1 the open/close fade uses `.opacity()` (a veil can't hide content on see-through glass). README "Glass" section with the Hyprland layer rule. |
-| `design-frosted` | glass-base plus an Apple-style surface: default glass 0.62, thin tint, hairline white rim (accent when hovered), white sheen along the top third, soft low black shadow instead of the accent glow. |
-| `design-liquid` | glass-base plus clear glass: default 0.4, denser toward the bottom right, specular gradient (bright top left, faint bottom right), 1.5 px light rim warming to `flame` when hovered, keeps the accent glow. |
-
-Each branch has review images in `docs/design/`. A `blur` value was added to `shell.conf` on all three and then reverted: **the user wants the blur strength set only in Hyprland** (`~/.config/hypr/looks.lua` has `decoration.blur.size = 3`). When the user picks a design, merge `glass-base` plus that design into master.
-
-Measured 2026-10-09 with the silent "Synth Test" player playing, 4 monitors (Amane GPU time per frame, CPU of amane-shell):
-
-| | Pill | Open card | Open/close |
-|---|---|---|---|
-| master (solid) | 1.6 ms, 12% | 3.3 ms, 25% | 2.5 ms |
-| glass-base at 0.5 | 1.7 ms, 13.5% | 3.0 ms, 25.5% | 2.4 ms |
-| design-liquid at 0.4 | 2.2 ms, 16% | 3.3 ms, 23.5% | 2.9 ms |
-| design-frosted at 0.62 | 2.9 ms, 22% | 3.3 ms, 24% | 2.9 ms |
-
-Hyprland's CPU stayed at about 9.5% in every run, blur rule on or off. All builds, master included, had 25–40 stutter frames (20–500 ms gaps) per 3 opens and closes, against 0–1 measured earlier with fewer monitors; the cause wasn't found (Cider and Firefox were running).
-
-**On the desktop right now:** the agent-started shell runs a master build (`11646ca`; pid in `~/.cache/amane-remote-test/shell.pid`, no frame log). `~/.config/amane` is a checkout at `036b326` with master's `src/` deployed over it, so `git status` shows changed files. `shell.conf` has `glass = 0.70` (set by the user). amane is not autostarted by Hyprland: after a reboot the user starts it.
-
-**Theme pipeline:** Skwd-wall v2's matugen integration `amane` renders `~/.config/amane/matugen/amane.colors` into `~/.config/amane/theme` (Skwd scheme: `scheme-fidelity`). `~/.config/hypr/windowrules.lua` has the glass layer rule (`^magic-.*$`, blur, `ignore_alpha = 0.5`).

 ## Constraints of Amane itself
 
-- Only `amane` and the Rust standard library: `amane compile` generates `Cargo.toml`, so no crates. External tools run as processes (`std::process::Command`, `amane::output`).
+- Only `amane` and the Rust standard library: `amane compile` generates `Cargo.toml`, so no crates. External tools run as processes (`Command`, `amane::output`); HTTP is curl.
 - Amane redraws the whole window every frame, so every effect is paid at the frame rate.
-- Amane can only blur what the shell draws itself; frosting the desktop behind the shell needs a Hyprland layer rule.

 ## Architecture
 
 | Piece | Kind | Job |
 |---|---|---|
-| `island.rs` `Island` | input-only Service | `open: Animation` (0 pill, 1 card), `expanded`, `selected` player (bus name; `None` follows the playing one), open `menu`, time-bar `scrub`, `hover` (per-`Spot` animations), `opened_on` / `pointer_on` (monitors), `playing_now` (a clicked play/pause until the player answers). Also the view and the `island` IPC handler (`command`). |
-| `sound.rs` `Sound` | Service, 1 s poll | `pactl list sinks` + `sink-inputs` → each player's streams (matched by process ancestry, then app name), volume, mute, output, equalizer. Curves saved by player identity to `~/.config/amane/island-eq`. |
-| `spectrum.rs` `Spectrum` | Service, 200 ms check | While the shown player plays: `pw-record --target <its stream> \| cava -p $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/magic-island/cava.conf` → 24 levels. On start it `pkill -KILL`s cava left by an earlier shell (cava ignores SIGTERM). |
-| `art.rs` `Art` | Service, 250 ms poll | Cover URL → local file (curl for https), copied to `palette-cover`, which `Palette` (opened in `main.rs`, 8 colours) watches. Only used for `cover_colors`. |
-| `theme.rs` `Theme` | Service, `amane::watch_file` | 10 colours from `~/.config/amane/theme` and `shell.conf` (`cover_colors`, `transition_ms`; `glass` on the glass branches), faded together on one `Animation<Colors>`. Every view starts with `theme::begin()` (subscribes, returns `cover_colors`) and draws with `theme::now()`. No theme file: the original pink on purple. `watch_file` watches the folder, so matugen's rename-over saves count (55–68 ms to redraw). |
-| `workspaces.rs` | view + input-only `Hover` | Workspace pill per monitor (namespace `magic-workspaces`, top left): `Workspaces` filtered by `output() == monitor.name`, special workspaces skipped. Click runs `hyprctl dispatch 'hl.dsp.focus({ workspace = N })'` on a thread. |
-| `parse.rs` | plain functions | pactl/cava/proc parsing, filter-chain config, `pw-cli` params, EQ store, middle ellipsis, `key = value` settings, `#rrggbb`; for the control centre also iwctl/bluetoothctl output (`plain_lines`, `bluez_reason`, `pairing_event`), iwd profile names and psk files, Wi-Fi bars, link speeds, `hyprctl monitors/clients`, `ip` addresses and routes, tray icon scoring and menu mnemonics. Unit-tested on its own. |
-| `control.rs` `Control` | view + input-only Service | The control centre (`magic-control`, top right) and its menu window (`magic-control-menu`, no shape of its own: the panel morphs to the menu's size, then the menu's content fades in). `Menu` (Wifi, Bluetooth, Vpn, Sound, Ethernet), `menu_content(menu, map_w, ..)` for both windows, `map_width(monitor_w)`, the `control` IPC handler. |
-| `system.rs` `Links`, `Power`, `Gpu` | Services, threads | iwd (D-Bus reads, only while it has an owner), openvpn services, bluez service state, wired cards from sysfs, battery, brightness, keyboard light, power profile, eGPU programs from fdinfo. Actions: `join_wifi`, `scan_wifi`, `disconnect_wifi` (iwctl), `scan_bluetooth`, `rc-service` via doas, `saved_password`, `wired_details`. |
-| `prompt.rs` `Prompt` | view + input-only Service | The popup (`magic-prompt`): password, PIN, passkey, confirm, show a code, saved password (Copy), failure reason. Runs the `bluetoothctl` pairing session. Only popups with a text field take the keyboard. `prompt::copy(text, done)` is the one wl-copy. |
-| `map.rs` | widget functions | The Wi-Fi/Bluetooth maps: nodes on an ellipse round the centre bubble (nearer = stronger), floating, lines (wobbling, running out while connecting, solid with a pulse), search rings. `AREA_H` 480, `NODES` 8 (a 9th makes labels meet at 822 px wide; the sizes were picked by simulating the drift). |
-| `glyph.rs` | shapes | Every icon as `Shape`s; maps draw all of theirs into ONE canvas (`glyph_shapes`), as each `Canvas` has a large fixed GPU cost. |
-| `edge.rs` `Edge` | Service, Hyprland sockets | Reads `.socket2.sock` events (fullscreen, workspace, focus, windows) and asks `.socket.sock` for `monitors`/`clients`; no polling. Hides the bar on fullscreen monitors (`edge.part(Part, monitor)`, `hidden_by`), the 1 px `magic-edge` strip that brings it back, peeks and the island's pop (`edge.pop`), the workspace highlight slide (`switched`), and `spacer`, the `magic-reserve` strip that reserves 44 px for the bar. |
-| `tray.rs` `Tray`, `TrayUi` | Services, bus threads | Owns `org.kde.StatusNotifierWatcher` (only if no other watcher runs) and is its host; items by bus name or path (path-only owners found by asking all connections at once); icons from themes or `IconPixmap`; dbusmenu menus in `magic-tray-menu`; the `tray` IPC handler. |
-| `png.rs` | plain functions | Stored-deflate PNG writer for pixmap tray icons (amane draws images from files). |
+| `config.rs` | settings | Every setting declared once in `settings! { part { group { name: type = default, range [choices]; "help" } } }`: a typed accessor plus an `OPTIONS` entry for the window. `load()`/`save()` of `config.toml`, `set`/`reset`; `[hyprland.*]` tables hold Hyprland overrides. |
+| `settings.rs` | view, normal `Window` | The config window: a page per part and per Hyprland category, search, a row per setting (switch, slider + field, text with swatch, chips), reset per row. Esc closes. `config` IPC. |
+| `hypr.rs` `Hypr` | Service, worker | Hyprland's options from `hyprctl descriptions -j` and one `--batch` of `j/getoption`. `set`/`reset` apply with `hl.config`, rewrite `~/.config/hypr/amane.lua` and `config.toml`. |
+| `surface.rs` | widget function | `shell(w, h, radius, colors, lift, content)`: the chosen glass design for every surface. |
+| `island.rs` `Island` | input-only Service | The island: `open: Animation`, player selection, menus, scrub, hover spots, `width_on(monitor)` (for the pods), `island` IPC. `expand()` closes a pod card. |
+| `pods.rs` `Pods` | view + input-only Service | Side pills: windows `magic-pods-left|right` per monitor beside the island, moving out as it opens; a pill morphs into its card (one timeline, `pills.layout.open_ms`). One card open across the shell. `header`, `chip`, `button`, `rule` helpers for the cards. `pods` IPC (`open|toggle <pod> [monitor]`, `close`, `ask`, `processes`, `notices …`, `status`). |
+| `ai.rs` `Ai` | Service | Ollama `/api/chat` via curl, streamed line by line (`parse::Chunk`); starts `ollama` via doas when it doesn't answer. Stop and New chat bump `round`, so a late line from an old answer is dropped. |
+| `stats.rs` `Stats` | Service, thread | CPU (`/proc/stat`), GPU clock (xe/i915 sysfs), memory, network, disk sectors of physical disks, hottest sensor per hwmon. All graphs in one canvas. Processes runs `ghostty --class=amane.monitor -e btm` via `hl.exec_cmd` on `special:monitor`, then toggles it. |
+| `home.rs` `Clock`, `Forecast`, `Agenda` | Services, threads | Avatar (`~/.face`, else a glyph), clock, open-meteo weather (Munich by default), month grid, CalDAV (iCloud by default): discovery, `REPORT` with `expand`, `parse::ics_events`. Sign-in stores an app-specific password with `secret-tool` (`service amane-calendar account <id>`). |
+| `notices.rs` `Notices` | Service, poll 250 ms | On top of Amane's `Notifications` server: popups (`magic-notifications`, top right of the focused monitor, timeouts by urgency, paused on hover), pictures found once per notification (`tray::icon_file`), unread count, the history card (cross = `dismiss`, Clear all, Mute = `notifications.popups.enabled`). A popup click without a default action only hides it; the server's `click` would delete it. The server itself never expires notifications. |
+| `sound.rs` `Sound` | Service, poll | `pactl` sinks and sink-inputs → each player's streams, volume, mute, output, equalizer. Curves in `~/.config/amane/island-eq`. |
+| `spectrum.rs` `Spectrum` | Service | `pw-record --target <stream> \| cava` → levels while the shown player plays; kills stale cava with `-KILL`. |
+| `art.rs` `Art` | Service, poll | Cover → `palette-cover` for `cover_colors`. |
+| `theme.rs` `Theme` | Service, `watch_file` | 10 colours from `~/.config/amane/theme` faded on one `Animation`; also watches `config.toml`. Views start with `theme::begin()`, draw with `theme::now()`; `theme::touch()` redraws all. |
+| `workspaces.rs` | view + `Hover` | Workspace pill per monitor; slots by x in one `Stack` under one sliding disc; ghost and growing slots. |
+| `parse.rs` | plain functions | All parsing, unit-tested: pactl/cava/proc, EQ store, colours, iwctl/bluetoothctl, `hyprctl` JSON, TOML (`Value`), JSON, Hyprland values, `same_app`, Ollama chunks, /proc stats, weather, WebDAV XML, iCalendar, civil dates, notification body markup. |
+| `control.rs`, `map.rs`, `prompt.rs`, `system.rs` | views, Services | Control centre and its menus, the maps (one canvas each), the popups, the network/power/GPU services. |
+| `glyph.rs` | shapes | Every icon as `Shape`s; draw many into ONE canvas (`glyph_shapes`), as each `Canvas` has a large fixed GPU cost. |
+| `edge.rs` `Edge` | Service, Hyprland sockets | socket2 events, no polling: bar hiding, `magic-edge`, peeks, workspace slide (`switched`, `created`), `hide_h()`, `magic-reserve`. |
+| `tray.rs`, `png.rs` | Services | StatusNotifierWatcher and host, icons from themes or pixmaps, dbusmenu menus. |
 
-The equalizer: one `setsid -f pipewire -c eq-<key>.conf` per player with `libpipewire-module-filter-chain`, 10 biquads (low shelf 31 Hz, peaking 63 Hz–8 kHz, high shelf 16 kHz). The player's streams move into sink `magic_island_eq.<key>`; gains change live with `pw-cli set-param magic_island_eq.<key> Props '{ params = [ "b1:Gain" 6.0 ... ] }'`. A player only gets one when its curve or output first changes, or it has a saved non-flat curve.
+### The island view
 
-### The view (island.rs `view`)
+- One `LayerWindow` per monitor (`magic-island`, `Layer::Overlay`), sized for the open card; an `InputArea` passes clicks outside through.
+- `phases(open)` splits one timeline: pill fades out, the empty shape grows, then the card fades in. At most one face per frame; `veiled()` fades with a backdrop-coloured veil.
+- Hover: Amane matches hover targets by index in the last frame, so a vanished button never hears the pointer leave: entering a spot fades all others, and `collapse()`/`set_menu()` drop stale highlights.
 
-- One `LayerWindow` per monitor (`window_per_monitor`, namespace `magic-island`, `Layer::Overlay` because the user's windows are fullscreen), sized for the open card; an `InputArea` lets clicks outside the island through.
-- No player: `idle()`, a static click-through pill with a drawn note and "Nothing playing".
-- Monitors: `tap(monitor)` opens the card where it was clicked, `expand()` (IPC) on the focused monitor; `open_on` restarts the animation when the card moves. Other monitors render `phases(0.0)`, their pill. Only the focused window and the one with the card read `Spectrum` (reading a Service is what subscribes a window), so the rest stay idle.
-- `phases(open)` splits one linear 560 ms timeline: pill fades out over 0–0.18, the empty shape grows over 0–0.6 (cubic ease-out), the card fades in over 0.6–1 (smoothstep). At most one face is built per frame. `veiled()` fades a face with a backdrop-coloured veil instead of `.opacity()`.
-- Background: the wallpaper surfaces as one 150° three-stop gradient (`backdrop()`); with `cover_colors` the card's background blends to `backdrop_colors(Palette)` (dominant, `colors()[1]`, `background()`, darkened by `deepen()` to 0.22 / 0.15 / 0.07 brightness) as it opens. White-alpha overlays (`CHIP`, `TRACK`, `CHIP_HOVER`, `CLEAR`) stay unthemed.
-- Hover: `hovering(spot)` returns the `on_hover` closure easing that `Spot` to 0/1 over 220 ms; the view reads `island.lit(spot)`. Amane matches hover targets by their index in the last frame, so a vanished button never hears the pointer leave: entering a spot fades all others, and `collapse()`/`set_menu()` drop stale highlights. Effects are colour blends and `.scale()`/`.translate()`; transport buttons go bold (`bold_icon`: the glyph's own outline, 0–2 px).
-- Transport: play/pause flips at once through `playing_now`; after any transport click `refresh_soon()` re-reads Media at 150 and 600 ms (Media polls once a second). `island play-pause` over IPC takes the same path.
-- `pill_levels()`: 7 bars, bar *i* = loudest of spectrum slice *i*, ×1.4, linear, drawn up and down from the middle. `ring()`: 40 candles, levels from `mirrored()`, 3 paths (glow, body, flame tips).
-- Moving the pointer off the open card collapses it.
+## Settings
+
+- **Add a setting** in `config.rs`'s `settings!` block with a range and a one-line help; use the accessor in code. Derived values are functions over settings. Text sizes are roles (`appearance.text.*`). Remaining `const`s are names and identities only.
+- The font and cava's bar count apply on restart; everything else on save.
+- `amane ipc call config get|set|reset <path> [value]` (`hyprland.<option.path>` for Hyprland); `status` says `open=… page=… errors=… search=…`.
+- `hl.config` value forms: numbers and bools plain, gradients `{ colors = { "rgba(…)" }, angle = 45.0 }`, vec2 `{ x, y }`, css gaps a number or `{ top, right, bottom, left }`.
 
 ## Hyprland 0.56 (Lua config) pitfalls
 
-- **Never return `visible(false)` from a layer view.** Hyprland configures a layer surface before its first commit, so a hidden-at-start window gets a size, Amane logs "`<name>` has no child to draw" and the window stays blank forever. With nothing to show, return `window.click_through().child(Rectangle::new().width(0.0).height(0.0))`.
-- **`Workspaces::focus` does nothing:** it sends `dispatch workspace N`, which the Lua config rejects. Use `hl.dsp.focus({ workspace = N })`. Test dispatches harmlessly on the already-focused workspace.
-- `hyprctl eval` / `hyprctl repl` run Lua in one shared state; globals (e.g. a layer rule kept in a variable) vanish when Hyprland reloads its config.
-- Layer-rule `match.namespace` is a full match: `^magic-` matches nothing, `^magic-.*$` works. Layer rules can only switch blur on; blur strength (`decoration.blur.size`, `passes`) is global.
-- `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/hypr/` keeps folders of dead instances; the live one has `.socket.sock` (`amane-remote.sh` picks it). A shell started with a dead signature gets an empty `Workspaces` list.
-- `hyprctl layers` lists hidden layer windows too (alpha 0); filter on `alpha > 0`.
-- **Reserved space and fullscreen:** a layer with `Zone::Reserve` reserves its whole height (amane's `measure_thickness`), and only on a window anchored to one edge (or an edge plus both sides), so corner-anchored or card-sized windows can't reserve. Hyprland keeps tiled and maximised (fullscreen 1) windows out of the reserved strip and lets fullscreen 2/3 cover it. Bar windows must keep `Zone::Ignore`, otherwise they get pushed down below the strip. Check with `hyprctl monitors` (`reserved: 0 44 0 0`) and a tiled window's `at:`.
-- **Hyprland state comes from its sockets, not polling:** `.socket2.sock` streams events, `.socket.sock` answers `monitors`/`clients`. Fullscreen 2 and 3 hide the bar; 1 (maximised) keeps it.
-- A peek (workspace or island) only shows on the **focused** monitor, and only matters on a fullscreen one; test with a workspace hop between two fullscreen workspaces there, then restore the focus.
+- **Never return `visible(false)` from a layer view**: a hidden-at-start layer window stays blank forever. Return `window.click_through().child(Rectangle::new().width(0.0).height(0.0))`.
+- **`Workspaces::focus` does nothing.** Use `hl.dsp.focus({ workspace = N })`. Special workspaces: `hl.exec_cmd(cmd, { workspace = "special:x silent" })`, `hl.dsp.workspace.toggle_special("x")`.
+- `hyprctl eval` / `repl` share one Lua state; globals vanish on a config reload.
+- Layer-rule `match.namespace` is a full match: `^magic-.*$`.
+- `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/hypr/` keeps folders of dead instances; the live one has `.socket.sock`.
+- `hyprctl layers` lists hidden layer windows too (alpha 0).
+- **Reserved space:** `Zone::Reserve` reserves the whole window height, only on a window anchored to one edge. Check with `hyprctl monitors` (`reserved: 0 44 0 0`).
+- A peek only shows on the **focused** monitor. A monitor whose workspace has a fullscreen window hides the bar, pods included (an open pod card stays).
 
 ## Performance rules
 
-- **Measure before and after every visual change**, baseline first, with the same player and monitor. The GPU-busy counter (`gt0/gtidle/idle_residency_ms`) reads 100% even with the shell paused, so compare Amane's per-frame `gpu` time and `top` CPU instead.
-- Don't resize a shape with the full card inside it; grow the empty shape, then fade the content in.
-- `.clip()` and `.opacity(<1)` each add a GPU layer (a clip over the whole card once took the iGPU from 47 to 9 fps). A shadow is two layers per frame: halos only while hovered.
-- Gradients cost: a gradient background plus 10 gradient fills halved the frame rate; one backdrop gradient is affordable. A veil over a gradient must be the same gradient at the same size (Amane places gradients by each rectangle's own bounds).
-- Draw repeated marks (candles, bars) as one `Path` per look.
-- Streaming data needs `amane::request_frame()` in the view while levels are live; a Service write alone got about 11 redraws a second from Hyprland.
-- `Rectangle::child` holds one child; stack layers with `Stack`.
+- **Measure before and after every visual change**, same player and monitor: Amane's per-frame `gpu` time and `top` CPU.
+- Don't resize a shape with the full card inside it; grow the empty shape, then fade the content in. Don't resize a layer window every frame: size it for the whole animation.
+- `.clip()` and `.opacity(<1)` each add a GPU layer; a shadow is two. Halos only while hovered.
+- One backdrop gradient is affordable, many aren't.
+- Draw repeated marks as one `Path` per look; many icons or graphs in one `Canvas`.
+- Streaming data needs `amane::request_frame()` while it's live. Slow work (icon lookups, curl, sysfs walks) belongs on Service threads, never in a view.

-- Pick a fake player with `ipc island next` until `status` names it, before anything that changes sound; stopping the fake players lets the island fall back to the user's player.
-- `ipc island open` opens on the **focused** monitor (the user's, if they're at the desk). Read the geometry from `hyprctl layers -j` on that monitor right before each `grim` capture. The user's pointer can open or collapse the island mid-test.
-- With one window per monitor the frame log mixes windows; resting ones show ~1000 ms gaps.
-- Design screenshots: set `glass` in the remote `shell.conf` (applies live), wait ~1 s, capture pill, workspace pill and the card (`ipc island open`, wait ~2.5 s).
-- Hover can't be tested with `hyprctl dispatch movecursor` (no motion events reach the surface); real motion needs a virtual pointer and moves the user's mouse, so ask first.
-- Before trusting timings, check `uptime`: a background Gentoo build once made every build look broken.
-- A fresh shell once exited with "lost the gpu (Device is lost)" (Mesa warns Xe is experimental); starting again worked.
-- To tune a visualiser, sample real levels read-only (`pw-record --target <stream> | cava`, `timeout -s KILL` on each stage; a plain `timeout` on the pipeline orphans cava) first. Typical music sits at 0.15–0.35.
-- In `pkill -f` patterns over SSH, use `[p]ython3 ...` so the pattern doesn't match the remote shell itself (a plain `pgrep -f fake_tray.py` once killed the test script).
-- **Control centre and tray without a mouse:** `ipc control open|close|menu <wifi|bluetooth|vpn|sound>|ethernet|wifi search|status`, `ipc tray list|menu|open N|activate N|choose ID|enter ID|back|close`. `control status` ends with `prompt=<what the popup shows>`. A fake tray app: `python3 tools/fake_tray.py name|path` (by bus name, or path-only like libappindicator; it prints every call it gets). Kill it by pid.
-- **Maps with many nodes:** with Wi-Fi off the maps are empty. Deploy a scratch copy of `src/` whose `map::map` injects fake nodes (never commit it), then redeploy the real `src`. Pick sizes by simulating the drift in Python, not from single screenshots.
-- **Measure gaps and alignment from pixels**, not by asking a vision model: `ffmpeg -i shot.png -vf crop=1920:1:0:Y -f rawvideo -pix_fmt rgb24 row.raw` and look for the border pixels.
-- To see the island and the control centre together, open them on a monitor without a fullscreen window (focus one of its workspaces first, restore after).

+
+- **AI** (sparkle): a chat with an Ollama model on your own servers, `gemma4:e4b` at `http://localhost:11434` by default. `pills.ai.servers` takes several, comma-separated, in order: the model chip in the header lists every server's models (each once, with its server when there are several) and switches at once, and a question goes to the first server that has the chosen model. Answers stream in through curl. When Ollama doesn't answer, the shell starts the OpenRC service with `doas rc-service ollama start` (`pills.ai.start_service`). Stop ends an answer and New chat starts over. Nothing goes to a cloud service, only to the servers listed.
+- **System** (pulse): CPU, the integrated GPU's clock, the external GPU's load (with its video memory and the programs on it, formerly in the control centre), memory, swap, network and disk read/write as graphs over the last minute, plus the hottest sensors with icons, in cool/warm/hot colours (`pills.monitor.warm|hot`). Everything is read from `/proc` and `/sys`, so there is no process list. Processes opens `ghostty --class=amane.monitor -e btm` on the special workspace `monitor`; a second press shows or hides it.
+- **Home** (house): `~/.face` as the avatar (a person glyph until the file exists), a greeting, the date, a big clock, and Munich's weather now and for four days from open-meteo (no key), over a photo of the current weather (`~/.config/amane/weather/<kind>-<day|night>.jpg`, downloaded once from Wikimedia Commons, credits in `weather/CREDITS.md`; swap any file, `pills.home.photo_opacity` tones it down). A big month grid marks events (dots in their calendars' colours), birthdays from your iCloud contacts (a cake) and the public holidays of `pills.calendar.holidays` (BY by default); click a day for its list. Events can be created, edited and deleted there (a series: title, place and calendar only). For iCloud, set `pills.calendar.account` to your Apple ID and store an [app-specific password](https://account.apple.com) in the keyring: `secret-tool store --label='Magic Island calendar' service amane-calendar account <Apple ID>` (gnome-keyring or another Secret Service has to run). The password never goes into `config.toml`. Other CalDAV/CardDAV servers work through `pills.calendar.server` and `contacts_server`.
+- **Notifications** (bell, with the unread count): Amane is the notification daemon (`org.freedesktop.Notifications`), so dunst must not run; it is commented out in `~/.config/hypr/autocmds.lua` (the old file is beside it as `autocmds.lua.before-amane-notifications`). Popups appear at the top right of the focused monitor with the app's icon or image, summary, body (simple markup) and action buttons. They time out by urgency (critical ones stay) and wait while the pointer is over them. A click runs the default action. The card lists the history, newest first; each entry's cross deletes it, and Clear all deletes everything. Mute app keeps an app's notifications in the history without popups; Block app drops them (`notifications.apps.muted|blocked`, undone from chips at the top of the card). Do not disturb turns all popups off.

+
+## Settings
+
+Every setting lives in `~/.config/amane/config.toml`: sizes, timings, text sizes, colours, poll intervals, equalizer presets and bands, the hotspot profile, the extra Sound output. The shell writes the file with every setting and its explanation the first time it starts (moving `cover_colors`, `transition_ms`, `hotspot` and `extra_output` over from an old `shell.conf`, which it no longer reads). Saving the file applies it at once; a line left out takes its default, and a line the shell can't use is listed at the top of the config window. The font and the cava bar count take effect on restart.
+
+The config window edits the same file: Settings at the foot of the control centre, or `amane ipc call config toggle`. It is a normal window with a page per part of the shell, a page per Hyprland category, and a search over everything; typing with no field selected (as right after opening it) goes into the search. Numbers with a range get a slider and a field, switches toggle, colours show a swatch; a typed value applies on Enter. Reset brings back the default.
+
+### Glass
+
+`appearance.surface.design` picks what the island, the pills, the tray menu, the control centre and its popups are made of: `solid` (the wallpaper's gradient with an accent glow), `frosted` (a thin tint, a hairline white rim, a sheen along the top, a soft shadow) or `liquid` (clear glass, denser toward the bottom right, a light-catching edge, the accent's glow). Each design's opacity, rim and light are settings of their own (`appearance.solid|frosted|liquid.*`); the look itself is `src/surface.rs`, drawn by one shader (`src/surface.wgsl`: the shadow, the fill and the sheen or lit edge in one pass; the rim stays a border). On see-through glass a face fades with `.opacity()` instead of a veil, a GPU layer only while it fades.

+Amane draws rectangles, borders, letters and pictures as cheap quads, and gradients, shadows and `Canvas` paths with vello, which renders over the whole window and then lays the result on top. vello keeps a result between frames only when its shapes didn't change and hold no gradient, so anything drawn with it on every frame costs a pass over the whole window. What redraws every frame is therefore kept off vello: the surfaces are a shader, the pill's bars are rounded rectangles, the candle ring and the equalizer's curve are shaders (`src/ring.wgsl`, `src/curve.wgsl`). A shader's file is written to `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/magic-island/` when it is first drawn. A shader must not contain the word `time`, or amane redraws its window on every frame.
+
+`tools/perf.sh PID [SECONDS]` (on the desktop) prints a process's CPU (and its children's), GPU per engine (DRM fdinfo) and memory.
+
+Amane can only blur what the shell draws, so the frosting comes from Hyprland: a layer rule for the shell's windows (the namespace match is a full match). `ignore_alpha` leaves pixels at or below that opacity unblurred, which keeps the clear margin around the pills sharp; keep it below the design's thinnest part, or that part shows the desktop unblurred (liquid at its default 0.4 is 0.22 in its top left corner).
+
+```lua
+hl.layer_rule({
+    name = "amane-glass",
+    match = { namespace = "^magic-.*$" },
+    blur = true,
+    ignore_alpha = 0.2,
+})
 ```
 
-Keep comments on lines of their own in the real file: a `#` after a value becomes part of it.
+The blur's strength is Hyprland's own (`decoration.blur.size`, `passes`; also on the config window's Decoration page).
+
+### Hyprland options
+
+The Hyprland pages list every option Hyprland itself describes (`hyprctl descriptions`), with its current value and default, and whether your Hyprland config sets it. A change applies at once (`hl.config`) and is kept in `config.toml` under `[hyprland.*]`; the shell writes those to `~/.config/hypr/amane.lua`. Load that file last in `hyprland.lua`, so the window's values survive a Hyprland reload and win over the rest of your config:
+
+```lua
+require("amane")
+```
+
+Reset on a Hyprland option removes it from both files and reloads Hyprland's config, so your own value comes back.
+
+Gradients are typed `rgba(80d9ffff) rgba(b18cffff) 45deg` (or `#80d9ff`), points `0 0`, gaps `6` or `6 10` (css-style).
