Local models run for coding agents with no network
`omarchy agent local use best` runs an open model on this machine for coding agents, picked from a recipe catalog, as a rootless Podman container with no network. The change merged into quattro. Version 4.0.6 is the latest release.
Read the story →OpenCode closed on its help for a 27B local model
Opening a 27B local model from the agents panel, with OpenCode as the default, printed OpenCode's help and closed. A change merged into quattro runs OpenCode with `--standalone` and selects the model through inline config.
NVIDIA N1x lock ignored keys until the password field was clicked
On the NVIDIA N1x, the lock ignored the keyboard until the password field was clicked, and went dark again as the panel came back. A change merged into quattro returns focus when the keyboard returns, and the first blank after a resume is 15s.
A Zenbook A16 trackpad button stayed stuck through the Hardware menu
On an ASUS Zenbook A16, Update > Hardware > Trackpad did nothing when a button got stuck down. A change merged into quattro turns the touchpad off and on in Hyprland, and a change merged into quattro resets only the touchpad on an XPS 16.
A DGX Spark keeps its cores out of deep idle
On a DGX Spark, David Heinemeier Hansson reported that the desktop felt like ~20 fps and that Speedometer 3.1 scored 10. A change merged into quattro disables every idle state past state0 on GB10.
An XPS 16 battery line showed no drain rate
On the XPS 16, the battery line and power panel showed no drain rate, because the script threw away the rate UPower had calculated. A change merged into quattro keeps UPower's energy-rate when that read does not return a number.
Moving a monitor blanked the bar for about a second
Moving a monitor in the display panel made the bar, dock and background vanish on that monitor for about a second. A change merged into quattro drops the workaround. In Hyprland 0.57 a plain panel window follows its monitor.
Extend and Mirror switch the monitor layout
The monitor panel switches between extended and mirrored displays. A change merged into quattro puts Extend and Mirror on the right of the layout header, the current mode bold in the accent.
The update refreshes omarchy-keyring before the system upgrade
An update left omarchy-keyring inside the system upgrade, so pacman checked signatures against the keyring already installed. A change merged into quattro puts omarchy-keyring on the refresh that already runs before that upgrade, and does nothing while the installed keyring is current.
A new install starts ASUS and Apple keyboards on the media keys
A new install starts ASUS and Apple keyboards on the media keys, so the top row sends volume and brightness and Fn gives F1-F12. A change merged into quattro leaves Apple Silicon out. An existing install keeps what it has, except the Zenbook A16.
First run sets up Superwhisper when it is the default
A fresh install did not run Superwhisper's setup for the service, shortcuts and bar panel. A change merged into quattro runs that setup on first run, after the shell is up, when the package is installed and Superwhisper is the default.
A lazy agent's first use installs its herdr integration
Pressing install in herdr failed for an agent that had never run, because herdr only installs into an existing config directory. A change merged into quattro runs the integration when mise installs the tool, on a lazy agent's first use.
A single monitor hides the layout map
With a single monitor, the display panel showed a layout map with nothing to arrange. A change merged into quattro shows that section only when there are displays to arrange or Mirror or Extend is offered. The r key still opens the rotate menu.
Setup gathers keyboard settings under one submenu
Setup gathers Keybindings, the layout picker and Input Methods under one Keyboard submenu. A change merged into quattro replaces Setup > Typing and the top-level Keybindings row. Setup > Input stays where it was.
A channel switch asks before it reboots
Switching channels ended with a plain-text line, "Updates require reboot. Ready? Run omarchy-system reboot when ready." A change merged into quattro keeps the person at the terminal in a gum confirm prompt for the reboot.
The tray lights up while a dragged widget would land in it
Dragging a bar widget toward the tray had only a thin outline as a cue. A change merged into quattro lights the whole tray while a drop would land in the drawer, and the tray goes dark once the widget is out.
The display key cycles the workspace layout
The display key, XF86Display, cycles the workspace layout, the same action as Super+L. A change merged into quattro binds it. On a Zenbook A16 that key is fn+F7, and a laptop whose display key sends Super+P keeps toggling pseudo-tiling.
OpenCode 2 opens on the system theme for a new install
After mise auto-updated to OpenCode 2, the program opened on its stock theme. A change merged into quattro ships a cli.json whose theme name is system for new installs. A theme the user picked is left alone.
