Gabriel Brown 9092a80f66 Search from the launcher, and give the touchpad something to do
Four things a Hyprland desktop can do that this one was not.

Searching from the launcher needed no launcher work at all: Vicinae already
models it, so this is a script command with one percent-encoded argument. Make
it the fallback command and anything typed that matches nothing else offers to
search it. Bangs come free -- they are a property of where the query is sent,
not of the launcher -- so !yt reaches YouTube without a line of bang parsing.

Suggestions could not be a script command. They need a view that reacts as you
type, which is an extension: TypeScript, compiled, querying the same endpoint
Firefox's address bar uses. It debounces, and aborts the request in flight on
every keystroke -- typing is faster than the network, and an older answer
landing after a newer one leaves the list describing a query that is no longer
on screen. A bang skips suggestions entirely, because Google has no useful
guesses about "!yt".

The engine is now written down twice, once in each. The contract pins that they
agree, since searching from the fallback and searching from the suggestions
reaching different places is the kind of wrong that looks fine.

Gestures mirror GNOME: three fingers sideways for workspaces, up for the
overview, down to dismiss it. Open and close rather than toggle both ways --
toggling means swiping up from an open overview closes it, which is not what the
fingers meant. Hyprland reads gesture registrations at startup so they cannot be
a setting, but distance and direction can be, and are.

Window swallowing is off by default and a preference like every other misc
setting here. A terminal that vanishes when you did not ask for it is confusing
rather than broken, which is worse.

Gabriel Brown e1faaf7a76 Drop the extension, and give the test suite a front door
Phase 6, the last of the fresh-install spec.

159 scripts lose their .sh: 110 contracts, 47 Vicinae commands, 2 compositor
contracts. A shebang and the executable bit already select the interpreter. The
extension only ever added something that had to stay in sync, and the rename
proved the point twice over in the space of an hour.

The spec's stated risk was Vicinae's script discovery. One script was renamed and
reloaded on its own before the other 46 followed; it came back as
scripts:panama.capture and all 47 resolve. What the probe turned up instead is
that the extension was never only a filename: Vicinae's command IDs embed it, so
every ID changed. Nothing in this repository refers to them, so nothing breaks.
The only trace is Vicinae's metadata.json, whose visited map had two Panama
entries that are now orphaned -- two commands lost their usage ranking and will
earn it back. Worth knowing before anyone renames these again on a machine that
has a keybind pointing at one.

Rewriting the references by exact filename missed two things it structurally
could not see: a name built from a variable, settings-$page.sh, and a glob,
-name '*.sh'. Both were in the contract that counts the generated commands, which
promptly reported 47 expected and 0 found. The mechanical part of a rename is the
part that looks finished.

The three subcommands. panama doctor fronts a health check that already existed
and already ran at the end of every install but could not be reached from a
terminal. panama upgrade re-runs the installer from anywhere. panama test runs
the suite, which had no entry point at all -- 121 files that were the main safety
net in this repository and were invisible in it.

Writing that runner found three tests nothing was running.
calendar_agenda_bridge_test, home_assistant_bridge_test and kdeconnect_bridge_test
are unittest suites without the executable bit, so no contract invoked them and
the first draft of the runner skipped them silently. All three pass, and have
passed unobserved for weeks. The runner collects *_test.py as well now, because a
runner with a blind spot is worse than no runner for the same reason a dependency
checker with one is: it reports PASS.

Six worktrees pruned. Each was re-checked rather than trusted to the spec's list,
and two needed it: panama-commands is not on feat/panama-commands but on
feat/gnome-tweaks-parity, and fix/panama-displays-review reads [ahead 3] -- ahead
of its remote, not of main, with every commit patch-equivalent to landed work.
roadmap-completion stays; it has five commits that are genuinely unlanded. The
branches are left alone: pruning a worktree costs nothing, deleting a branch is a
decision.

121 contracts pass.
