Make display confirmation test deterministic

Super+Tab already cycled windows, but nothing was drawn, so you chose
blind and could only confirm the choice by arriving. A visible switcher
is muscle memory for anyone arriving from macOS or GNOME, and it was the
last item of roadmap phase 03 that did not need coordination.

Ordered most-recently-used, not by creation, because that is what makes
the gesture useful: one Tab returns to the window you just came from.
Hyprland does not report an MRU order, so it is tracked from focus
changes and keyed by address, which is the only property stable for a
window's lifetime.

The gesture needs three binds rather than two. Tab steps the selection,
and the switch is committed on Super RELEASE -- the only way the
compositor can say the gesture is over. That bind is on the bare
modifier, so it fires on every Super release in the session; commit()
returns immediately when nothing is open, which is what makes it
affordable.

A list of names rather than thumbnails: at a glance you are looking for
"the other terminal", and a row of live previews is slower to read and
far more expensive to draw than this gesture deserves.

The interesting part is the bug. The overlay was built, mapped nothing,
and logged absolutely nothing -- because it declared `required property
var screen` while Variants supplies `modelData`. shell.qml has carried a
comment warning about exactly this since the Bar hit it, and I read that
comment earlier in the same session and still walked into it. A comment
that does not stop the person who read it is an argument for a test, so
per-screen-surface-contract now checks every per-screen delegate takes
its screen from modelData. Verified it catches the exact mistake.

Also fixes a regression from 8be3fc2: settings-pages-contract still
required vitalsIntervalMs on Home, where it no longer is. That contract
was pinning the split-across-two-pages arrangement the same commit
fixed, and I pushed without running it.

+## System health and recovery
+
+Panama stays silent while the desktop is healthy. A compact bar indicator
+appears only for actionable warnings or errors and opens the same **System
+Health** page available from Settings and the Vicinae command **Panama: Check
+System Health**. The terminal summary is available with:
+
+```bash
+~/.config/quickshell/scripts/panama-doctor --summary
+```
+
+The doctor reports authored, redacted observations about Panama-owned services,
+tools, links, and configured integrations. It does not read secrets, clipboard
+or notification contents, calendar events, SSIDs, or device addresses. Repairs
+are a small allow-list: Panama user services, Panama-owned links and launcher
+commands, duplicate Panama Caffeine inhibitors, and a confirmed shell restart.
+They never install packages, invoke `sudo`, delete user data, or rewrite
+arbitrary configuration.
+
+Generic Fedora configuration remains with the system tools that own it. The
+final System Health card hands network settings, users, sharing, colour
+profiles, and digital wellbeing to their exact GNOME Settings panels rather
+than presenting inert Hyprland controls.

+## System Health
+
+The stable internal `services` route renders **System Health**. It is reachable
+from the Settings sidebar and its live 54px footer, the degraded-only bar
+indicator, and Vicinae's **Panama: Check System Health** command. Healthy scans
+reserve no bar space and produce no notification.
+
+`services/Health.qml` owns the last accepted redacted snapshot. It invokes
+`scripts/panama-doctor` for scans and bounded repairs, `wl-copy` only for an
+explicit **Copy Report**, and bounded `notify-send` only when an external repair
+fails. For a concise terminal view, run:
+
+```bash
+~/.config/quickshell/scripts/panama-doctor --summary
+```
+
+The helper diagnoses Panama-owned desktop services, dependencies, links, and
+configured integrations. It does not read secret values, clipboard or
+notification contents, calendar events, SSIDs, addresses, or arbitrary command
+output. Its repair interface is an authored allow-list: it never installs a
+package, runs `sudo`, deletes user data, or repairs a service Panama does not
+own. A repair remains degraded until a fresh scan observes recovery.
+
+The final card is the ownership boundary. Network configuration and the exact
+Users, Sharing, Colour profiles, and Digital wellbeing handoffs open GNOME
+Settings because Fedora's system services own those areas.

+## Setting ownership
+
+Every preference has **one primary page**, derived from its schema `group` and
+the route in `services/SettingsSearch.qml`. Search results always open that
+owner. A control may appear on a second page only when the same adaptation is
+part of another established mental model; otherwise use a labelled handoff to
+the owner instead of duplicating it.
+
+### Intentional mirrors
+
+| Setting | Primary page | Mirror | Why the mirror earns its place |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `animationsEnabled` | Appearance | Accessibility | Reduced motion belongs both to visual polish and motion accessibility. |
+| `cursorInactiveTimeout` | Mouse | Accessibility | Pointer visibility is configured with pointer behaviour but affects motor and visual access. |
+| `cursorSize` | Accessibility | Mouse | Large cursors are an accessibility adaptation that users also look for beside pointer controls. |
+| `inactiveOpacity` | Appearance | Accessibility | Window translucency is an appearance choice with a direct readability impact. |
+| `lockMinutes` | Power | Privacy | Idle timing owns the mechanism; privacy owns the expectation that the unattended desktop locks. |
+| `lockOnSleep` | Power | Privacy | Suspend owns the transition; privacy owns whether waking requires authentication. |
+
+Lock-screen visuals belong only to **Appearance**: background source, blur,
+clock, date, user name, and password-field presentation. **Power** owns when
+the session locks, while **Privacy** keeps only the established timing mirrors
+above. Visual controls must not be copied onto either page.
+
+**Displays** is the sole owner of mode, scale, rotation, arrangement, and primary role.
+Those values form one safety transaction: every connected output
+is applied, verified, confirmed, or restored together. Other pages may link to
+Displays, but must never expose a second geometry control or persist a partial
+layout.
+
+Mirrors must remain the same schema-backed control, never a second preference
+or a copied default. Additions to this table require a concrete discoverability
+reason and an update to `tests/quickshell/settings-ownership-contract.sh`.
+
+Window border colour follows the same ownership rule. The inactive border is a
+**scheme-relative role** owned by `ColorScheme.qml`: it changes only to retain
+neutral contrast in light and dark modes. The focused Prism border is the
+accent role owned by the visual theme (and, eventually, an accent picker).
+`ColorScheme.qml` must never write the focused border, so changing schemes
+cannot erase a user-selected accent.

-// hyprpaper owns the actual painting; this owns choosing. Two things are worth
-// knowing about hyprpaper 0.8:
-//
-//   * Its IPC is much smaller than the documentation for older versions
-//     suggests. `wallpaper <output>,<path>` and `listactive` work; `preload`,
-//     `listloaded`, `unload`, and `reload` all answer "invalid hyprpaper
-//     request". So there is no preload step -- setting is a single call.
-//   * hyprpaper.conf lives in the Panama repo via the ~/.config/hypr symlink,
-//     so it cannot be rewritten at runtime without dirtying a tracked file.
-//     The chosen wallpaper therefore lives in the shared settings store like
-//     every other preference, and is re-applied when the shell starts.
-//
-// The argument is "<output>,<path>", so a path containing a comma would be
-// parsed as a different request. The schema's pattern rejects those, and the
-// value is passed as a single argv element rather than through a shell.
+// Verified wallpaper policy application. hyprpaper 0.8 applies one output per
+// IPC call, so Panama queues every connected output and persists a policy only
+// after listactive confirms the complete map.

+// earlier Locale singleton resolve to QML's built-in type instead.

+//
+// MOST-RECENTLY-USED ORDER
+//
+// The list is ordered by when each window last had focus, not by when it was
+// opened, because that is what makes the gesture useful: one Tab returns to the
+// window you just came from, which is the overwhelmingly common case. Creation
+// order would send you to whichever window happens to be first in Hyprland's
+// list, which is arbitrary from the user's point of view.
+//
+// Hyprland does not report an MRU order, so it is tracked here: every time a
+// toplevel becomes active it moves to the front. Addresses are used as the key
+// because they are stable for a window's lifetime, where titles and app ids are
+// not.
+//
+// HOW A SWITCH ENDS
+//
+// The compositor fires a bind on Super RELEASE, which commits. That is the only
+// way to know the gesture is over -- there is no "modifier released" signal
+// otherwise. It means close() runs on every Super release in the session, so it

+# Panama Health & Recovery Implementation Plan
+
+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
+
+**Goal:** Build a quiet, trustworthy System Health surface that diagnoses Panama-owned desktop functionality, exposes redacted reports, and offers only narrow allow-listed repairs.
+
+**Architecture:** An executable Python helper, `panama-doctor`, is the only operating-system boundary and emits one deterministic JSON schema. A `Health.qml` singleton owns accepted snapshots, scan generations, repair state, and report copying; Settings, the bar, IPC, and Vicinae consume that typed state without constructing commands.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Python 3 standard library, Bash contract tests, Quickshell/QML, QtQuick, Hyprland IPC, Vicinae script commands, Prism design tokens.
+
+**Spec:** `docs/superpowers/specs/2026-08-18-panama-health-recovery-design.md`
+
+## Global Constraints
+
+- Healthy background scans are silent: no notifications, Signal Glass events, animations, or permanent bar ornament.
+- Allowed statuses are exactly `ok`, `warning`, `error`, and `unconfigured`; overall status is `healthy`, `warning`, or `error`.
+- Optional integrations that have never been configured are `unconfigured`, never warnings.
+- The helper never reads or reports secret values, clipboard contents, notification bodies, calendar event data, SSIDs, addresses, or arbitrary command output.
+- The helper never installs packages, invokes `sudo`, deletes user data, rewrites arbitrary configuration, or repairs services Panama does not own.
+- Probe-derived values may populate observations only; check IDs, groups, titles, actions, commands, and arguments are authored constants.
+- All process launches use argument arrays. UI text and report content never become commands.
+- Preserve the last valid snapshot on helper failure or malformed JSON.
+- Repairs are judged by a fresh observed scan, not by process exit status alone.
+- Do not run a state-changing live repair without a genuinely degraded disposable target or explicit user approval.
+
+## File map and stable interfaces
+
+- `config/dot/quickshell/scripts/panama-doctor`: Python CLI and sole diagnostic/repair OS boundary.
+- `config/dot/quickshell/services/Health.qml`: snapshot state machine, scan/repair processes, report copy, and fixture seams.
+- `config/dot/quickshell/health-harness.qml`: deterministic IPC harness for generations, malformed data, coalescing, and repairs.
+- `config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/HealthPage.qml`: System Health page composition.
+- `config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/HealthSummary.qml`: stable-height summary hero and primary controls.
+- `config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/HealthCheckRow.qml`: one accessible check row with one action.
+- `config/dot/quickshell/modules/bar/HealthIndicator.qml`: degraded-only bar entry point.
+- `config/local/share/vicinae/scripts/check-system-health.sh`: searchable launcher command.
+- `tests/quickshell/fixtures/doctor/`: isolated command, config, state, and runtime fixtures containing no real workstation data.
+- `tests/quickshell/panama-doctor-contract.sh`: schema, status, redaction, timeout, ordering, and repair allow-list contract.
+- `tests/quickshell/health-service-contract.sh`: QML state-machine contract.
+- `tests/quickshell/health-ui-contract.sh`: Settings, footer, report, indicator, IPC, and Vicinae integration contract.

+### Task 1: Prism health mocks and visual approval
+
+**Approved visual:** A — Diagnostic Ledger. Preserve its restrained issue rail, stable summary hero, two-column healthy ledgers, live sidebar footer, and degraded-only bar capsule.
+
+**Files:**
+- Create outside tracked source: `.superpowers/mocks/system-health/index.html`
+- Create outside tracked source: `.superpowers/mocks/system-health/panama.css`
+- Create outside tracked source: `.superpowers/mocks/system-health/mock.js`
+- Create outside tracked source: `.superpowers/mocks/system-health/a-ledger.html`
+- Create outside tracked source: `.superpowers/mocks/system-health/b-focus.html`
+- Create outside tracked source: `.superpowers/mocks/system-health/c-compact.html`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: the existing 272 px Settings sidebar, 48 px titlebar, Tokyo Night Moon Prism tokens, and the approved information architecture.
+- Produces: one approved visual composition for healthy, warning, checking, and error states plus the degraded-only bar indicator.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Build three static compositions from real copy**
+
+Use the same warning fixture in all three: `Vicinae` is stopped with action `Restart Vicinae`; `External monitor brightness` needs permission with action `View setup instructions`; `BlueBubbles` is `Not set up`. Keep every variant inside the real Settings geometry and include the footer and bar indicator.
+
+```text
+A — Diagnostic ledger: one restrained amber issue rail beside calm grouped rows.
+B — Focus card: issues receive the visual focus; healthy groups collapse into quieter ledgers below.
+C — Compact matrix: dense two-column group cards with the same issue-first ordering.
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Serve and visually inspect the mocks**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+python3 -m http.server 52780 --directory .superpowers/mocks/system-health
+```
+
+Expected: all three variants render at `http://localhost:52780`, keyboard focus is visible, no element overflows at 1360x900, and reduced-motion mode has no continuous animation.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Capture the approved direction in the plan**
+
+Add a short `Approved visual: <variant>` note beneath this task after user selection. Production UI work in Task 4 must reproduce that composition using existing QML tokens rather than copying browser-only effects.
+
+### Task 2: Deterministic read-only doctor
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `config/dot/quickshell/scripts/panama-doctor`
+- Create: `tests/quickshell/panama-doctor-contract.sh`
+- Create: `tests/quickshell/fixtures/doctor/bin/systemctl`
+- Create: `tests/quickshell/fixtures/doctor/bin/pgrep`
+- Create: `tests/quickshell/fixtures/doctor/bin/busctl`
+- Create: `tests/quickshell/fixtures/doctor/bin/qs`
+- Create: `tests/quickshell/fixtures/doctor/bin/vicinae`
+- Create: `tests/quickshell/fixtures/doctor/bin/systemd-inhibit`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: `PANAMA_DOCTOR_ROOT`, `PANAMA_DOCTOR_HOME`, `PANAMA_DOCTOR_CONFIG_HOME`, `PANAMA_DOCTOR_STATE_HOME`, `PANAMA_DOCTOR_RUNTIME_DIR`, `PANAMA_DOCTOR_PATH`, and `PANAMA_DOCTOR_TIMEOUT` test seams; production defaults resolve from the real process environment.
+- Produces: `panama-doctor --json`, `panama-doctor --summary`, and a versioned schema with `summary` plus the 25 ordered check objects listed above.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing schema and redaction contract**
+
+The contract must create an isolated home, tracked source tree, runtime tree, and fake command directory, then assert:
+
+```bash
+snapshot="$($doctor --json)"
+jq -e '.schemaVersion == 1
+  and (.generatedAt | type == "string")
+  and (.summary.status | IN("healthy", "warning", "error"))
+  and (.context.session | IN("hyprland", "other"))
+  and (.context.versions | type == "array")
+  and ([.checks[].id] | length == 25)
+  and ([.checks[].id] | unique | length == 25)
+  and ([.checks[].status] | all(IN("ok", "warning", "error", "unconfigured")))' <<<"$snapshot"
+[[ "$(jq -r '.checks[].id' <<<"$snapshot")" == "$expected_order" ]]
+! grep -Fq 'fixture-secret-token' <<<"$snapshot"
+! grep -Fq 'fixture clipboard body' <<<"$snapshot"
+! grep -Fq 'AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF' <<<"$snapshot"
+```
+
+Cover a healthy required service, a missing required executable, an unconfigured optional integration, a configured-but-stopped integration, an inaccessible DDC bus, a timed-out probe, duplicate Caffeine inhibitors, malformed probe output, and concise `--summary` output.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run the contract and verify the helper is absent**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/panama-doctor-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: FAIL because `config/dot/quickshell/scripts/panama-doctor` does not exist.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement authored checks and concurrent bounded probes**
+
+Use Python standard-library types and deterministic assembly:
+
+```python
+@dataclass(frozen=True)
+class Action:
+    kind: Literal["repair", "open", "instructions"]
+    label: str
+    confirm: bool = False
+
+@dataclass(frozen=True)
+class Check:
+    id: str
+    group: Literal["desktop-foundation", "input-media", "integrations", "panama-tools"]
+    title: str
+    status: Literal["ok", "warning", "error", "unconfigured"]
+    detail: str
+    action: Action | None = None
+```
+
+Run independent probes through `ThreadPoolExecutor(max_workers=8)`. Every subprocess call must use a constant argument tuple, `capture_output=True`, `text=True`, and the configured timeout. Convert timeout, non-zero status, and parse failure into a check result. Assemble checks by the authored ID tuple after futures settle; never emit completion order.
+
+Configuration checks may inspect existence and file type only. Home Assistant is configured when both expected variable names are present, but their values are never retained. Calendar is configured from enabled EDS source count only; event commands are never called. BlueBubbles is configured from the Flatpak installation check. DDC uses only `panama-brightness list` and retains display count plus its authored error classification, never connector names.
+
+The top-level `context` contains only an authored session class and an ordered array of parsed Hyprland, Quickshell, Fedora, and Panama revision versions. `panama.processes` counts only exact authored process names and flags duplicate Quickshell, Vicinae, Hyprpaper, or Hypridle instances without exposing command lines. Integration actions are authored too: Nextcloud, RustDesk, KDE Connect, and BlueBubbles may offer their exact Open action; Home Assistant and calendar failures route to `home-phone` and `datetime`; never derive an application or page name from probe output.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run the doctor contract**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/panama-doctor-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: `panama doctor contract: PASS`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Commit the read-only engine**
+
+```bash
+git add config/dot/quickshell/scripts/panama-doctor tests/quickshell/panama-doctor-contract.sh tests/quickshell/fixtures/doctor
+git commit -m "Add Panama system health diagnostics"
+```
+
+### Task 3: Health singleton and typed IPC state machine
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `config/dot/quickshell/services/Health.qml`
+- Create: `config/dot/quickshell/health-harness.qml`
+- Create: `tests/quickshell/health-service-contract.sh`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/shell.qml`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: `panama-doctor --json` and `panama-doctor --repair CHECK_ID --json`.
+- Produces: `Health.snapshot`, `Health.checks`, `Health.summary`, `Health.status`, `Health.actionable`, `Health.busy`, `Health.diagnosticUnavailable`, `Health.lastError`, `Health.repairingId`, `Health.lastRepair`, `Health.lastCopyResult`, `Health.refresh()`, `Health.repair(id, external)`, `Health.copyReport()`, and IPC target `health` with `refresh`, `status`, `open`, and `repair(id)`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing QML state contract**
+
+The harness exposes fixture methods that call the real singleton's pure consumption seams:
+
+```qml
+function accept(text: string, generation: int): bool { return Health.consumeSnapshot(text, generation); }
+function queue(): void { Health.refresh(); Health.refresh(); }
+function status(): string { return JSON.stringify(Health.diagnostics()); }
+```
+
+Assert that a valid warning snapshot is accepted, an older generation is ignored, malformed JSON preserves the prior checks and marks the engine unavailable, two refreshes while running schedule exactly one follow-up, a valid repair triggers one rescan, and unknown/non-repairable IDs start no process.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run the contract and verify it fails**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/health-service-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: FAIL because `Health.qml` and the harness do not exist.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement the singleton state machine**
+
+Define the stable state shape:
+
+```qml
+property var snapshot: ({})
+property var checks: []
+property var summary: ({ status: "healthy", healthy: 0, warnings: 0, errors: 0, unconfigured: 0 })
+property string status: "healthy"
+property bool diagnosticUnavailable: false
+property bool queuedRefresh: false
+property int generation: 0
+property int acceptedGeneration: 0
+property string repairingId: ""
+property var lastRepair: ({})
+property string lastCopyResult: ""
+readonly property bool actionable: status === "warning" || status === "error"
+readonly property bool busy: scanProcess.running || repairProcess.running
+```
+
+Use `Process.exec([root.helperPath, "--json"])`; attach the current generation to the collector before launch. `consumeSnapshot(text, generation)` validates schema version, summary keys, context shape, unique IDs, groups, statuses, titles, details, and action shapes before replacing state. A 2200 ms one-shot startup timer requests the initial scan. A running scan sets `queuedRefresh`; exit consumes at most one queued follow-up. `copyReport()` sends only `JSON.stringify(root.snapshot, null, 2)` to `wl-copy` through a `Process` stdin buffer and writes success or failure to `lastCopyResult` without touching the clipboard service's history model.
+
+The `health` IPC `status()` returns only the already-redacted summary, busy flags, generation, and check IDs/statuses. `open()` calls `ShellState.openSettings("services")` then refreshes. IPC `repair(id)` calls `Health.repair(id, true)` and returns a Boolean acceptance result; Settings calls `Health.repair(id, false)`. A failed externally-originated repair uses an argument-array `notify-send` process with the existing `Panama action failed` title, while Settings failures remain inline.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run service and IPC contracts**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+tests/quickshell/health-service-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/settings-window-contract.sh
+```
+
+Expected: both PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Commit the service layer**
+
+```bash
+git add config/dot/quickshell/services/Health.qml config/dot/quickshell/health-harness.qml tests/quickshell/health-service-contract.sh config/dot/quickshell/shell.qml
+git commit -m "Add Panama health state service"
+```
+
+### Task 4: Approved System Health Settings page
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/HealthPage.qml`
+- Create: `config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/HealthSummary.qml`
+- Create: `config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/HealthCheckRow.qml`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/SettingsShell.qml`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/SettingsSidebar.qml`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/services/SettingsSearch.qml`
+- Delete: `config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/ServicesPage.qml`
+- Create: `tests/quickshell/health-ui-contract.sh`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/settings-pages-contract.sh`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/settings-search-contract.sh`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: all read-only state and methods from `Health.qml`; route remains the stable internal name `services`.
+- Produces: System Health summary, issues-first cards, four grouped ledgers, live clickable sidebar footer, Copy Report feedback, and confirmation requests for disruptive repairs.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write failing Settings and accessibility assertions**
+
+Assert static structure and fixture-rendered state:
+
+```bash
+rg -Fq 'label: "System Health"' config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/SettingsSidebar.qml
+rg -Fq 'onClicked: Health.copyReport()' config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/HealthSummary.qml
+rg -Fq 'onTapped: root.pageRequested("services")' config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/SettingsSidebar.qml
+rg -Fq 'text: "Checking…"' config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/HealthSummary.qml
+rg -Fq 'Health.refresh()' config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/HealthPage.qml
+```
+
+The runtime harness must prove warning rows appear before healthy groups, unconfigured is visible as `Not set up`, every status has text in addition to color, refresh preserves row geometry, keyboard focus reaches both hero actions and row actions, and a Quickshell-restart repair opens a confirmation sheet.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run UI contracts and verify failure**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+tests/quickshell/health-ui-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/settings-pages-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/settings-search-contract.sh
+```
+
+Expected: FAIL because the approved Health components are absent.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement the approved composition**
+
+Use `SettingsPage`, `SettingsCard`, `SettingsButton`, `Theme`, and `PrismEdge`. Keep the summary hero stable at 126 px and each check row at least 62 px. Derive labels exactly:
+
+```qml
+function statusLabel(status: string): string {
+    if (status === "ok") return "Healthy";
+    if (status === "warning") return "Needs attention";
+    if (status === "error") return "Action required";
+    return "Not set up";
+}
+```
+
+`HealthPage.Component.onCompleted` calls `Health.refresh()`. Issues are checks with `warning` or `error`. Group cards preserve helper order. Each row exposes at most one action. `open` actions route to exact Settings pages; `instructions` actions reveal authored inline instructions; `repair` actions call `Health.repair(id, false)` after confirmation only when `action.confirm === true`.
+
+The sidebar footer is a 54 px `TapHandler` target with status text derived from Health, not a hardcoded string. It opens `services`; when no scan has completed it says `Checking Panama desktop`. A malformed or failed doctor run retains the last rows, changes only the hero to `Health check unavailable`, and exposes one bounded `Retry` action. The page ends with the approved boundary note and an `Open GNOME Settings` action for networking, printers, users, and other Fedora-owned areas.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run UI contracts and inspect the rendered fixture**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+tests/quickshell/health-ui-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/settings-pages-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/settings-search-contract.sh
+```
+
+Expected: all PASS with zero QML warnings.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Commit the Settings experience**
+
+```bash
+git add config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings config/dot/quickshell/services/SettingsSearch.qml tests/quickshell/health-ui-contract.sh tests/quickshell/settings-pages-contract.sh tests/quickshell/settings-search-contract.sh
+git commit -m "Build the System Health settings page"
+```
+
+### Task 5: Quiet bar indicator and launcher entry point
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `config/dot/quickshell/modules/bar/HealthIndicator.qml`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/modules/bar/Bar.qml`
+- Create: `config/local/share/vicinae/scripts/check-system-health.sh`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/scripts/panama-action`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/health-ui-contract.sh`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/panama-action-contract.sh`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/panama-commands-contract.sh`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: `Health.actionable`, `Health.status`, and `Health.summary`; existing `panama-action` dispatcher and Settings IPC.
+- Produces: one degraded-only bar affordance and Vicinae command `Panama: Check System Health`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Extend contracts before production files**
+
+Assert the indicator is absent for healthy/unconfigured-only fixtures, visible amber for warnings, visible red for errors, includes a textual accessible label, and opens `services`. Extend command fixtures so:
+
+```text
+panama-action health -> qs ipc call health open
+check-system-health.sh title -> Panama: Check System Health
+check-system-health.sh exec -> $HOME/.config/quickshell/scripts/panama-action health
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run focused tests and verify failure**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+tests/quickshell/health-ui-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/panama-action-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/panama-commands-contract.sh
+```
+
+Expected: FAIL on the missing indicator and command.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement the quiet entry points**
+
+Place `HealthIndicator` in the right-side bar row before `ActivityIndicator`. It has no reserved width while hidden, no animation, and one compact shield/wrench glyph with an issue-count tooltip or accessible description. Use `Theme.warn` only for warnings and `Theme.danger` only for errors. Clicking calls `ShellState.openSettings("services")` and `Health.refresh()`.
+
+Add this dispatcher case and usage token:
+
+```bash
+health) qs ipc call health open ;;
+```
+
+Create a Vicinae script with schema version 1, silent mode, Panama Settings icon, keywords `health`, `doctor`, `repair`, `services`, and the stable `panama-action health` execution path.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run focused tests**
+
+Run the three commands from Step 2.
+
+Expected: all PASS; command count increases from 17 to 18.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Commit the entry points**
+
+```bash
+git add config/dot/quickshell/modules/bar config/local/share/vicinae/scripts/check-system-health.sh config/dot/quickshell/scripts/panama-action tests/quickshell
+git commit -m "Add quiet System Health entry points"
+```
+
+### Task 6: Allow-listed repairs and observed recovery
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/scripts/panama-doctor`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/panama-doctor-contract.sh`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/services/Health.qml`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/health-service-contract.sh`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/HealthCheckRow.qml`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/health-ui-contract.sh`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: the fixed repair matrix in this plan and current accepted checks from `Health.qml`.
+- Produces: `panama-doctor --repair CHECK_ID --json` result `{schemaVersion, checkId, accepted, exitCode, message}`, inline repair state, and one post-repair scan.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Add exact repair-command tests**
+
+For every repair ID, use fake commands and isolated paths to assert the exact argv. Assert all of these are rejected before any process or filesystem write:
+
+```text
+unknown.check
+integration.home-assistant
+input.brightness
+desktop.notifications
+../../escape
+desktop.vicinae;touch injected
+```
+
+For runtime links, fixtures must prove only these link names are eligible: `hypr`, `quickshell`, `uwsm`, and `vicinae`; a regular user-owned directory is reported but never replaced. For Caffeine, only duplicate rows with application `Panama`, current UID, reason `Caffeine`, and mode `block` may yield numeric PIDs; leave one valid inhibitor alive and release extras.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run repair contracts and verify failure**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+tests/quickshell/panama-doctor-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/health-service-contract.sh
+```
+
+Expected: FAIL because `--repair` is not implemented.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement the authored repair registry**
+
+Represent commands as immutable constant tuples or dedicated functions:
+
+```python
+REPAIR_COMMANDS = {
+    "desktop.hyprpaper": ("systemctl", "--user", "restart", "hyprpaper.service"),
+    "desktop.hypridle": ("systemctl", "--user", "restart", "hypridle.service"),
+    "desktop.vicinae": ("systemctl", "--user", "restart", "vicinae.service"),
+    "desktop.quickshell": ("panama-action", "restart-shell"),
+}
+```
+
+Handle runtime links, Vicinae command linking, and duplicate inhibitors in dedicated functions that accept no caller-controlled path or command. Return JSON on every known failure. Unknown IDs exit 2 with `accepted: false` and do not invoke any runner.
+
+`Health.repair(id, external)` requires the ID to exist in the current snapshot with `action.kind === "repair"`, records `repairingId`, runs the helper with an argument array, parses the result, clears the busy row, and requests exactly one fresh scan. Keep the row degraded until that scan reports recovery.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run repair and UI contracts**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+tests/quickshell/panama-doctor-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/health-service-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/health-ui-contract.sh
+```
+
+Expected: all PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Commit repairs**
+
+```bash
+git add config/dot/quickshell/scripts/panama-doctor config/dot/quickshell/services/Health.qml config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/HealthCheckRow.qml tests/quickshell
+git commit -m "Add bounded Panama recovery actions"
+```
+
+### Task 7: Full verification, controller-deferred live audit, and documentation
+
+**Integration note:** `origin/main` added Mouse, Privacy, Region, and Online
+Accounts destinations while this feature was in review. Merge commit `4ef2f01`
+preserves those routes and the newer Settings navigation architecture, keeps
+the stable `services` route rendered by `HealthPage`, and leaves
+`ServicesPage.qml` retired. Its useful Fedora handoffs for Users, Sharing,
+Colour profiles, and Digital wellbeing now live in the boundary-last System
+Health card alongside the existing network handoff, with focused static and
+isolated runtime coverage.
+
+**Live-audit handoff:** Per the integration brief, this task does not reload the
+daily-driver Quickshell, invoke a live repair, or run the read-only live
+doctor/IPC comparison. Those checks remain for the controller after code review.
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `config/dot/hypr/DESKTOP-PARITY.md`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/README.md`
+- Modify: `docs/superpowers/plans/2026-08-18-panama-health-recovery.md`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: the complete feature and existing regression suite.
+- Produces: current user documentation and final contract evidence. The
+  redacted live health snapshot and live shell audit are deferred to the
+  controller after code review.
+
+- [x] **Step 1: Document boundaries and entry points**
+
+Document `Panama: Check System Health`, Settings → System Health, the degraded-only bar indicator, `panama-doctor --summary`, the no-`sudo`/no-package-install boundary, and the fact that GNOME/Fedora tools remain responsible for generic system configuration.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run syntax, focused, and full contracts**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+python3 -m py_compile config/dot/quickshell/scripts/panama-doctor
+bash -n config/dot/quickshell/scripts/panama-action
+tests/quickshell/panama-doctor-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/health-service-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/health-ui-contract.sh
+for test in tests/quickshell/*contract.sh; do "$test"; done
+for test in tests/hypr/*contract.sh; do "$test"; done
+```
+
+Expected: every command exits 0. After the latest Settings and installer work,
+the current inventory is 66 Quickshell contracts and 2 Hyprland contracts (the original
+pre-merge estimate was 58).
+
+Integration result: syntax and all focused Health/Settings contracts pass. Two
+complete serial Quickshell runs each passed 63/65, but failed on different
+order-sensitive contracts. Run one failed Displays and Settings Hyprland Write;
+run two failed Focus Session and Health Service. Each failed contract passed
+immediately when rerun alone. Hyprland contracts passed 2/2. No out-of-scope
+test or service code was changed to hide this suite-order interference.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Controller runs a redacted live read-only comparison**
+
+Deferred to the controller after code review; Task 7 does not produce this
+live output.
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+config/dot/quickshell/scripts/panama-doctor --json >"$(mktemp)"
+config/dot/quickshell/scripts/panama-doctor --summary
+systemctl --user is-active hyprpaper.service hypridle.service vicinae.service pipewire.service
+qs ipc call health refresh
+qs ipc call health status | jq '{status, busy, checks: [.checks[] | {id, status}]}'
+```
+
+Expected: helper and direct service states agree. Do not print details from integrations; copied and IPC reports contain only redacted authored observations.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Controller reloads and inspects the live shell**
+
+Deferred to the controller after code review; Task 7 does not reload or inspect
+the daily-driver shell.
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+qs reload
+sleep 4
+journalctl --user --since '-2 minutes' --no-pager | rg -i 'quickshell|qml|panama' | tail -200
+```
+
+Expected: the shell returns, System Health opens, the healthy state is silent, and there are no new QML errors or binding-loop warnings. Do not invoke a repair during this step.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Final diff and commit**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+git diff --check
+git status --short
+git diff --stat origin/main...HEAD
+git add config/dot/hypr/DESKTOP-PARITY.md config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/README.md docs/superpowers/plans/2026-08-18-panama-health-recovery.md
+git commit -m "Document Panama health and recovery"
+```
+
+Expected: only intentional Health & Recovery files are present and no workstation-specific values appear in the diff.

+# Phase 2 Application Volume Implementation Plan
+
+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
+
+**Goal:** Add a live, non-persistent per-application playback mixer to Panama Settings.
+
+**Architecture:** A small pure JavaScript module groups PipeWire playback nodes and owns aggregate calculations. `AudioDevices.qml` exposes the live groups, while focused QML components render and mutate the real tracked nodes.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Quickshell 0.3, Qt 6 QML/JavaScript, `Quickshell.Services.Pipewire`, Bash contract harnesses
+
+**Spec:** `docs/superpowers/specs/2026-08-18-phase2-expectation-gaps-design.md`
+
+## Global Constraints
+
+- PipeWire remains the source of truth; do not persist stream identity or volume.
+- Include only ready `PwNodeType.AudioOutStream` nodes with writable audio state.
+- Group by `application.id`, binary, name, then node ID, in that order.
+- No polling, shell commands, or logging of stream metadata.
+- Preserve the existing output, input, balance, and Fedora device-profile controls.
+
+---
+
+### Task 1: Pure application-stream model
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `config/dot/quickshell/services/AudioStreams.js`
+- Create: `config/dot/quickshell/audio-streams-harness.qml`
+- Create: `tests/quickshell/application-volume-contract.sh`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: PipeWire-shaped nodes with `id`, `ready`, `type`, `properties`, and `audio`.
+- Produces: `group(nodes, audioOutStreamFlag)`, `volume(group)`, `muted(group)`, `setVolume(group, value)`, and `setMuted(group, muted)`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing grouping contract**
+
+Create complete fixture nodes for two Chromium streams, one Spotify stream, an input stream, an unready stream, and a metadata-free stream. Through IPC, assert the literal groups and labels:
+
+```json
+[
+  {"key":"org.chromium.Chromium","label":"Chromium","icon":"chromium","count":2},
+  {"key":"spotify","label":"Spotify","icon":"audio-x-generic-symbolic","count":1},
+  {"key":"node:99","label":"Unknown application","icon":"audio-x-generic-symbolic","count":1}
+]
+```
+
+Also assert Chromium volume `0.6` from fixture values `0.4` and `0.8`, mixed mute reports `false`, setting volume writes both nodes, and setting mute normalizes both nodes.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run the contract and verify RED**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/application-volume-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: FAIL because `AudioStreams.js` and the IPC target do not exist.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement the minimal pure model**
+
+Export these exact functions:
+
+```javascript
+function property(node, key) {
+    const value = node && node.properties ? node.properties[key] : "";
+    return typeof value === "string" ? value.trim() : "";
+}
+
+function groupKey(node) {
+    return property(node, "application.id")
+        || property(node, "application.process.binary")

+
+function group(nodes, audioOutStreamFlag) {
+    const groups = [];
+    const byKey = {};
+    for (const node of nodes || []) {

+            continue;
+        const key = groupKey(node);
+        if (!byKey[key]) {
+            byKey[key] = { key, label: label(node), icon: icon(node), nodes: [] };
+            groups.push(byKey[key]);
+        }
+        byKey[key].nodes.push(node);
+    }
+    return groups;
+}
+
+function audioNodes(application) {
+    return (application && application.nodes || []).filter(node => node && node.audio);
+}
+
+function volume(application) {
+    const nodes = audioNodes(application);
+    return nodes.length === 0 ? 0
+        : nodes.reduce((sum, node) => sum + node.audio.volume, 0) / nodes.length;
+}
+
+function muted(application) {
+    const nodes = audioNodes(application);
+    return nodes.length > 0 && nodes.every(node => node.audio.muted === true);
+}
+
+function setVolume(application, value) {
+    const next = Math.max(0, Math.min(1, Number(value)));
+    if (!Number.isFinite(next)) return false;
+    const nodes = audioNodes(application);
+    for (const node of nodes) {
+        node.audio.muted = false;
+        node.audio.volume = next;
+    }
+    return nodes.length > 0;
+}
+
+function setMuted(application, mutedValue) {
+    const nodes = audioNodes(application);
+    for (const node of nodes) node.audio.muted = mutedValue === true;
+    return nodes.length > 0;
+}
+```
+
+Use literal property lookups and `Number.isFinite`; do not import PipeWire into the pure module.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run the contract and verify GREEN**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/application-volume-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: PASS for grouping, fallback metadata, aggregate volume, mixed mute, and writes.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Commit the model**
+
+```bash
+git add config/dot/quickshell/services/AudioStreams.js config/dot/quickshell/audio-streams-harness.qml tests/quickshell/application-volume-contract.sh
+git commit -m "Model live application audio streams"

+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/services/AudioDevices.qml`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/audio-streams-harness.qml`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/application-volume-contract.sh`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: `AudioStreams.group(nodes, PwNodeType.AudioOutStream)`.
+- Produces: `readonly property var applications` and typed wrappers `applicationVolume`, `applicationMuted`, `setApplicationVolume`, `setApplicationMuted`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Extend the contract for the service API**
+
+Assert the harness can report real `AudioDevices.applications` without starting playback and that every returned group contains only nodes with the AudioOutStream flag. Assert mutator wrappers reject `null` and a group with no live audio nodes.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run and verify RED**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/application-volume-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: FAIL because `AudioDevices.applications` is undefined.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Add the reactive service properties**
+
+Implement:
+
+```qml
+readonly property var playbackStreams: Pipewire.nodes.values.filter(node =>
+    node.ready && node.audio
+    && (node.type & PwNodeType.AudioOutStream) === PwNodeType.AudioOutStream)
+readonly property var applications: AudioStreams.group(root.playbackStreams, PwNodeType.AudioOutStream)
+```
+
+Delegate aggregate reads and writes to the pure model. Preserve `outputs`, `inputs`, `nodes()`, `current()`, and `select()` unchanged.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run and verify GREEN**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/application-volume-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: PASS with zero or more real live applications and no mutation of the live streams.

+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: one `AudioDevices.applications` group per row.
+- Produces: a real Sound **Applications** card and the empty-state sentence from the spec.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing UI contract**
+
+Construct `SoundPage.qml` in the existing isolated Settings harness. Assert no QML warnings and these rendered states: application rows when groups exist, **Applications playing sound will appear here** when empty, and **PipeWire is unavailable** when the service is not ready. Assert the advanced handoff label is exactly **Device profiles**.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run and verify RED**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/application-volume-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/sound-page-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: FAIL because the mixer components and Applications card are absent.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement the row and card**
+
+`ApplicationVolumeRow.qml` must declare a `PwObjectTracker` over `application.nodes`, use `ThemedIcon`, `IconButton`, `ValueSlider`, and a tabular percentage. Its only writes are `AudioDevices.setApplicationMuted(root.application, value)` and `AudioDevices.setApplicationVolume(root.application, value)`. `ApplicationMixer.qml` owns the Repeater and empty/unavailable copy. Put the card after Input and before Sound feedback.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run and verify GREEN**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/application-volume-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/sound-page-contract.sh`

+# Phase 2 Display Arrangement Implementation Plan
+
+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
+
+**Goal:** Add safe drag-and-snap multi-monitor positioning and a Panama primary-display role without weakening the existing 15-second rollback contract.
+
+**Architecture:** A pure layout module validates, normalizes, scales, and snaps logical monitor rectangles. `Displays.qml` upgrades its pending operation to a complete-layout transaction, and a focused canvas component edits drafts before invoking that transaction.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Quickshell 0.3, Qt 6 QML/JavaScript, Hyprland 0.56.2 Lua evaluation, Lua startup config, Bash/QML contracts
+
+**Spec:** `docs/superpowers/specs/2026-08-18-phase2-expectation-gaps-design.md`
+
+## Global Constraints
+
+- One connected output is primary; it anchors persisted coordinates at logical `0,0`.
+- Primary does not promise where third-party Wayland applications open.
+- Every layout operation captures, applies, verifies, confirms, reverts, and verifies the complete connected layout.
+- Keep is disabled until every output matches mode, scale, transform, x, and y.
+- Stored disconnected outputs remain untouched and do not enter a live transaction.
+- Development uses static fixtures; run the existing live display contract once at final completion.
+
+---
+
+### Task 1: Pure display-layout geometry
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `config/dot/quickshell/services/DisplayLayout.js`
+- Create: `config/dot/quickshell/display-layout-harness.qml`
+- Create: `tests/quickshell/display-layout-contract.sh`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: records `{name,width,height,scale,transform,x,y,primary}`.
+- Produces: `logicalSize`, `validate`, `normalize`, `snap`, `bounds`, and `canvasRects`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing geometry contract**
+
+Use literal fixtures:
+
+```json
+[
+  {"name":"DP-2","width":4500,"height":3000,"scale":1.5,"transform":0,"x":140,"y":80,"primary":true},
+  {"name":"HDMI-A-1","width":2560,"height":1440,"scale":1,"transform":1,"x":3140,"y":80,"primary":false}
+]
+```
+
+Assert transformed logical sizes, normalized DP-2 position `0,0`, normalized HDMI position `3000,0`, exactly one primary, and canvas rectangles preserving the complete desktop aspect ratio. Move HDMI within 16 logical pixels of DP-2's right edge and assert it snaps to x `3000`; move it 17 pixels away and assert no snap.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run and verify RED**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/display-layout-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: FAIL because the geometry module and harness do not exist.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement geometry functions**
+
+Rules:
+
+```text
+transform 0 or 2 -> logical width = width/scale, height = height/scale
+transform 1 or 3 -> logical width = height/scale, height = width/scale
+coordinates      -> finite integers between -100000 and 100000
+snap threshold   -> 16 logical pixels
+canvas padding   -> caller supplied; return data only, never QML objects
+```
+
+`normalize` subtracts the primary x/y from every record and returns new objects. `snap` compares the moving rectangle's four edges with every stationary rectangle's opposite and same-axis edges; choose the smallest eligible delta, then stable output-name order on ties.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Add invalid-layout cases**
+
+Assert rejection of duplicate outputs, zero or two primaries, fractional coordinates, non-positive scale, unsupported transform, non-finite values, and rectangles with zero logical size.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Run and verify GREEN**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/display-layout-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: PASS for geometry, deterministic snapping, normalization, and invalid cases.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Commit layout geometry**
+
+```bash
+git add config/dot/quickshell/services/DisplayLayout.js config/dot/quickshell/display-layout-harness.qml tests/quickshell/display-layout-contract.sh
+git commit -m "Model multi-monitor layout geometry"
+```
+
+### Task 2: Parse and persist extended monitor records
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/services/Displays.qml`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/displays-harness.qml`
+- Modify: `config/dot/hypr/monitors.lua`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/config/PreferenceSchema.qml`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/displays-contract.sh`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/settings-preferences-contract.sh`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: `hyprctl -j monitors` x/y values and backward-compatible persisted entries.
+- Produces: monitor records with `x`, `y`, `primary`; Lua validation for optional `x`, `y`, `primary`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Extend the static contract and Lua fixture**
+
+Assert parsed monitors retain literal x/y. Feed Lua old, valid new, and malformed records. Expected startup calls:
+
+```lua
+DP-2 position = "0x0"
+HDMI-A-1 position = "3000x0"
+old valid entry position = "auto"
+malformed x/y/primary entry = ignored in favor of shipped/auto behavior
+```
+
+Assert only one valid persisted primary is honored and DP-2's 10-bit/color policy remains unchanged.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run and verify RED**
+
+Run: `PANAMA_DISPLAYS_STATIC_ONLY=1 tests/quickshell/displays-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: FAIL because x/y/primary are neither parsed nor replayed.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Extend monitor parsing**
+
+Read integer `monitor.x` and `monitor.y`. Derive the live primary from the connected persisted primary when valid, otherwise the output at `0,0`, otherwise the first connected monitor. Include the boolean only in the service model; Hyprland receives position, not a nonexistent primary flag.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Extend Lua validation**
+
+Add `valid_position(entry)` and `valid_primary(entry)`. An entry is extended only when all three new fields are present and valid; an entry with none remains legacy and uses `position = "auto"`; a partially extended entry is invalid. Render position with `string.format("%dx%d", entry.x, entry.y)`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Update schema documentation**
+
+Change the internal `displays` detail to **Resolution, scale, rotation, position, and primary display**. Do not add a second preference.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Run and verify GREEN**
+
+Run: `PANAMA_DISPLAYS_STATIC_ONLY=1 tests/quickshell/displays-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/settings-preferences-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: PASS for old and new records.
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Commit extended persistence**
+
+```bash
+git add config/dot/quickshell/services/Displays.qml config/dot/quickshell/displays-harness.qml config/dot/hypr/monitors.lua config/dot/quickshell/config/PreferenceSchema.qml tests/quickshell/displays-contract.sh tests/quickshell/settings-preferences-contract.sh
+git commit -m "Persist complete monitor layouts"
+```
+
+### Task 3: Whole-layout transaction and rollback
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/services/Displays.qml`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/displays-harness.qml`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/displays-contract.sh`
+- Create: `tests/quickshell/display-transaction-contract.sh`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: `DisplayLayout.validate/normalize` and complete current monitor records.
+- Produces: public `Displays.currentLayout()`, `Displays.applyLayout(layout)`, `Displays.makePrimary(output)`; internal `matchesLayout(monitors, layout)`; and backward-compatible `apply(output, mode, scale, transform)`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing fixture transaction contract**
+
+Fake `hyprctl` monitor JSON and `eval`. Request a two-output layout and assert the evaluator receives both literal monitor calls in one argv payload. Assert `canConfirm` remains false when one output has wrong y, becomes true only when both match, and confirm persists both records with one primary.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Add rollback and generation cases**
+
+Assert timeout, explicit revert, non-zero apply exit, wrong readback, and a disconnect generation each restore all still-connected outputs. Return a stale pre-operation query after a newer operation starts and prove it cannot confirm or clear the newer transaction. Force wrong revert readback and assert the existing manual-restoration error.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Run and verify RED**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/display-transaction-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: FAIL because `Displays.qml` tracks only one output per operation.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Replace pending records with complete layouts**
+
+Use:
+
+```qml
+property var pendingPreviousLayout: null
+property var pendingRequestedLayout: null
+property var revertExpectedLayout: null
+readonly property bool awaitingConfirmation: root.pendingRequestedLayout !== null
+```
+
+Retain the existing generation counters and timers. `matchesLayout` requires equal connected output-name sets and exact x/y/transform, with the existing tolerances for refresh and scale.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Implement one validated evaluation payload**
+
+Build each call only from compositor-reported output names and validated numeric/mode fields:
+
+```text
+hl.monitor({ output = "DP-2", mode = "[email protected]", position = "0x0", scale = 1.5, transform = 0 }); hl.monitor({ output = "HDMI-A-1", mode = "[email protected]", position = "3000x0", scale = 1, transform = 0 })
+```
+
+Reject quotes or non-connector characters in output names before generation. Preserve sequential Process/readback timing around the single eval.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Preserve one-field callers**
+
+Keep `apply(output, mode, scale, transform)` by cloning `currentLayout()`, replacing one output's four existing fields, retaining every position and primary flag, then calling `applyLayout`. This keeps `DisplayModePicker`, scale, rotation, and the existing live contract working.
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Run and verify GREEN**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/display-transaction-contract.sh && PANAMA_DISPLAYS_STATIC_ONLY=1 tests/quickshell/displays-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: PASS for apply, confirm, timeout, all revert paths, disconnect, and stale generations.
+
+- [ ] **Step 8: Commit safe transactions**
+
+```bash
+git add config/dot/quickshell/services/Displays.qml config/dot/quickshell/displays-harness.qml tests/quickshell/displays-contract.sh tests/quickshell/display-transaction-contract.sh
+git commit -m "Apply monitor layouts transactionally"
+```
+
+### Task 4: Arrangement canvas
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/DisplayArrangement.qml`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/DisplaysPage.qml`
+- Create: `tests/quickshell/display-arrangement-contract.sh`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/settings-pages-contract.sh`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: `Displays.currentLayout()`, `Displays.applyLayout()`, `Displays.makePrimary()`, and `DisplayLayout.canvasRects/snap`.
+- Produces: selected output, pointer/keyboard draft positioning, **Make primary**, and narrow-layout textual selection.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing visual-behavior contract**
+
+Render two literal monitors at wide and 500 px content widths. Through harness IPC, drag HDMI next to DP-2, release, and assert one `applyLayout` call with snapped logical x. Focus HDMI and send Left plus Shift+Left; assert 10 and 100 logical-pixel draft steps. Activate Make primary and assert normalized DP-2 coordinates become negative while HDMI becomes `0,0`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run and verify RED**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/display-arrangement-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: FAIL because no arrangement component exists.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement responsive canvas data flow**
+
+Keep `draftLayout` as copied plain records. Recalculate canvas rectangles from `DisplayLayout.canvasRects` when width or monitors change, but never mutate live service records. Use `DragHandler` for the selected tile and call `DisplayLayout.snap` before mapping canvas movement back to logical coordinates.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Add keyboard and primary actions**
+
+Each tile is focusable and exposes accessible name **Move DISPLAY_NAME**. Arrow keys modify the draft by 10 logical pixels; Shift uses 100. Enter applies the draft. Escape discards it. **Make primary** changes one boolean, normalizes through the pure module, then applies through the same transaction.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Integrate Displays page**
+
+Show the card only for two or more monitors. Keep the existing connected-display ChoiceGrid below/inside the selected-display area for narrow tiled widths. Bind arrangement selection and `root.selectedOutput` both ways without loops.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Run and verify GREEN**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/display-arrangement-contract.sh && PANAMA_DISPLAYS_STATIC_ONLY=1 tests/quickshell/displays-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/settings-pages-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: PASS at both widths with no QML warnings.
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Commit the canvas**
+
+```bash
+git add config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/DisplayArrangement.qml config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/DisplaysPage.qml tests/quickshell/display-arrangement-contract.sh tests/quickshell/settings-pages-contract.sh
+git commit -m "Add monitor arrangement canvas"
+```
+
+### Task 5: Static display identification overlays
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/DisplayIdentify.qml`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/DisplayArrangement.qml`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/shell.qml`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/display-arrangement-contract.sh`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: `Displays.identifying` and each `Quickshell.screens` entry.
+- Produces: `Displays.identify()` and one non-interactive three-second numbered overlay per screen.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing overlay contract**
+
+Invoke identify through the fixture harness. Assert screen 1 renders connector/name and number 1, screen 2 renders number 2, overlays accept no keyboard focus or pointer input, and all become invisible after one 3,000 ms single-shot timer. Assert repeated invocation restarts that timer without creating more windows.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run and verify RED**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/display-arrangement-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: FAIL because identify state and overlays do not exist.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Add service state and shell-owned windows**
+
+`Displays.identify()` sets one boolean and restarts one Timer. `DisplayIdentify.qml` uses a `Variants` model over `Quickshell.screens`, one transparent non-focusable `PanelWindow` per screen, centered static number card, and no animations. Instantiate it once from `shell.qml`; the Settings button only calls the service.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run and verify GREEN**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/display-arrangement-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: PASS with a fixed window count and no focus-grab warnings.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Commit identification**
+
+```bash
+git add config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/DisplayIdentify.qml config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/DisplayArrangement.qml config/dot/quickshell/shell.qml tests/quickshell/display-arrangement-contract.sh
+git commit -m "Add display identification overlays"

+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/settings-backup-live-contract.sh`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/settings-commit-reset-contract.sh`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/settings-ownership-contract.sh`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: the existing internal `displays` preference and complete-layout transaction.
+- Produces: search terms for arrangement/primary and protected whole-layout restore.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write failing integration assertions**
+
+Assert **arrange displays**, **monitor position**, and **primary display** route to Displays. Restore a two-output snapshot while a current layout is protected; assert complete apply/verify occurs before shell reload and any failed restore retains/proves the original layout. Reset must clear confirmed arrangement fields so startup returns to shipped DP-2 plus automatic placement for other outputs.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run and verify RED**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/settings-search-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/settings-backup-live-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/settings-commit-reset-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: FAIL for missing terms and one-output restore assumptions.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Update search and restore**
+
+Add three manual search entries because `displays` is internal. Replace any single-output assumptions in SettingsBackup with cloned complete layout objects and wait on the existing `Displays.busy || Displays.awaitingConfirmation` boundary.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Update ownership documentation**
+
+Document Displays as the sole owner of mode, scale, rotation, arrangement, and primary role. No mirror entry is added.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Run and verify GREEN**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/settings-search-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/settings-backup-live-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/settings-commit-reset-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/settings-ownership-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: PASS with no new duplicated controls.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Commit integration**
+
+```bash
+git add config/dot/quickshell/services/SettingsSearch.qml config/dot/quickshell/services/SettingsBackup.qml config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/README.md tests/quickshell/settings-search-contract.sh tests/quickshell/settings-backup-live-contract.sh tests/quickshell/settings-commit-reset-contract.sh tests/quickshell/settings-ownership-contract.sh
+git commit -m "Integrate complete display layouts"
+```
+
+### Task 7: Slice verification
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Run all static display contracts**
+
+```bash

+
+Expected: all PASS without touching the physical display.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Validate startup configuration once**
+
+Run: `Hyprland --verify-config`
+
+Expected: `config ok`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Defer the live display test**
+
+Do not run the state-changing portion of `tests/quickshell/displays-contract.sh` here. The master Phase 2 completion gate runs it once after every slice is stable and restores the observed mode, scale, transform, and position.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Review branch state**
+
+Run: `git diff --check && git status --short`
+
+Expected: clean after the Task 6 commit.

+# Phase 2 Expectation Gaps Implementation Plan
+
+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
+
+**Goal:** Deliver application volume, managed lock appearance, wallpaper modes, and safe multi-monitor arrangement as one coherent Panama Settings phase.
+
+**Architecture:** Phase 2 is four independent subsystems, so each has its own executable plan and focused commits. This master plan fixes their order, cross-slice integration, and the single conservative live verification gate.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Quickshell 0.3, Qt 6 QML/JavaScript, PipeWire 1.6, Hyprland 0.56.2 Lua, hyprlock 0.9.6, hyprpaper 0.8.4, Bash, jq
+
+**Spec:** `docs/superpowers/specs/2026-08-18-phase2-expectation-gaps-design.md`
+
+## Global Constraints
+
+- Implement the approved **A — Continuity** direction; do not introduce an inspector or extra navigation level.
+- Use schema/service boundaries already established by Panama Settings.
+- Write and observe a focused failing test before every production behavior.
+- Keep live desktop mutations out of development loops.
+- Do not start playback, acquire the live lock screen, rotate the live wallpaper through fixtures, or emulate a second physical display.
+- Run changed-page QML harnesses and the live display contract once at completion, not after every edit.
+- Each subsystem must be independently green and committed before the next begins.
+
+## Plan set
+
+1. `docs/superpowers/plans/2026-08-18-phase2-application-volume.md`
+2. `docs/superpowers/plans/2026-08-18-phase2-lock-screen.md`

+4. `docs/superpowers/plans/2026-08-18-phase2-display-arrangement.md`
+
+## Spec coverage map
+
+| Approved requirement | Owning plan/tasks |
+|---|---|
+| PipeWire application grouping, controls, empty/error states | Application Volume Tasks 1–4 |
+| Generated lock config, safe fallback, preview, search, restore, health | Lock Screen Tasks 1–5 |
+| Single/slideshow/per-monitor policy, verification, timer, UI, restore | Wallpaper Modes Tasks 1–6 |
+| Position, primary role, transaction/revert, canvas, identify, restore | Display Arrangement Tasks 1–7 |
+| Shared ownership, search vocabulary, deterministic restore ordering | Master Task 5 |
+| Conservative runtime/config/visual verification and publication | Master Tasks 6–7 |

+
+### Task 1: Execute the application-volume plan
+
+**Files:** Defined in `2026-08-18-phase2-application-volume.md`.
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Produces: `AudioDevices.applications` and the Sound Applications card.
+- Independent of: lock, wallpaper, and display state.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Read the spec and application-volume plan completely**
+
+Run: `sed -n '1,520p' docs/superpowers/specs/2026-08-18-phase2-expectation-gaps-design.md && sed -n '1,420p' docs/superpowers/plans/2026-08-18-phase2-application-volume.md`
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Execute every unchecked application-volume task in order**
+
+Use strict red-green-refactor cycles and the exact commit boundaries in that plan.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Confirm the slice head**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/application-volume-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/sound-page-contract.sh && git status --short`
+
+Expected: both PASS and no uncommitted files.
+
+### Task 2: Execute the lock-screen plan
+
+**Files:** Defined in `2026-08-18-phase2-lock-screen.md`.
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: existing schema, wallpaper fallback values, and SettingsBackup settle sequencing.
+- Produces: `panama-lock`, `LockScreen.qml`, generated config, Appearance card, and health/restore integration.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Read the lock-screen plan completely**
+
+Run: `sed -n '1,520p' docs/superpowers/plans/2026-08-18-phase2-lock-screen.md`
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Execute every unchecked lock-screen task in order**
+
+Never invoke `panama-lock run` outside its fake-hyprlock fixture.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Confirm the slice head**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/lock-screen-helper-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/lock-screen-service-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/lock-screen-settings-contract.sh && git status --short`
+
+Expected: all PASS, no live `hyprlock` test process, and no uncommitted files.
+
+### Task 3: Execute the wallpaper-modes plan
+
+**Files:** Defined in `2026-08-18-phase2-wallpaper-modes.md`.
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: schema and connected output names.
+- Produces: policy calculation, verified hyprpaper orchestration, runtime slideshow, controls, and restore integration.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Read the wallpaper plan completely**
+
+Run: `sed -n '1,620p' docs/superpowers/plans/2026-08-18-phase2-wallpaper-modes.md`
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Execute every unchecked wallpaper task in order**
+
+All apply tests use fake hyprpaper IPC and temporary image files.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Confirm the slice head**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/wallpaper-policy-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/wallpaper-service-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/wallpaper-settings-contract.sh && git status --short`
+
+Expected: all PASS and no uncommitted files.
+
+### Task 4: Execute the display-arrangement plan
+
+**Files:** Defined in `2026-08-18-phase2-display-arrangement.md`.
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: existing Displays apply/revert contract and SettingsBackup display protection.
+- Produces: pure geometry, extended persistence, whole-layout transactions, arrangement UI, identify overlays, and search/restore integration.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Read the display plan completely**
+
+Run: `sed -n '1,720p' docs/superpowers/plans/2026-08-18-phase2-display-arrangement.md`
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Execute every unchecked display task except the live display test**
+
+Use fixture monitor JSON for all multi-monitor cases.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Confirm the static slice head**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/display-layout-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/display-transaction-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/display-arrangement-contract.sh && PANAMA_DISPLAYS_STATIC_ONLY=1 tests/quickshell/displays-contract.sh && git status --short`
+
+Expected: all PASS and no uncommitted files.
+
+### Task 5: Cross-slice Settings integration audit
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/services/SettingsBackup.qml`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/services/SettingsSearch.qml`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/AppearancePage.qml`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/README.md`
+- Modify: relevant existing contracts only when the combined behavior requires it.
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: `LockScreen.regenerate()`, `Wallpaper.applyCurrentPolicy(false)`, and complete display-layout restore.
+- Verifies: one deterministic restore sequence and one ownership/search vocabulary.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Expand the combined restore fixture before the final audit**
+
+The slice plans already extend `tests/quickshell/settings-backup-live-contract.sh` test-first. Confirm its final fixture now contains lock, slideshow, and two-output layout values and asserts this exact order: preferences reload, display apply/verify, idle apply, lock generate, wallpaper apply/verify, keybind/compositor settle, shell reload. It must also assert bounded failure remains in service state and shell reload waits for the settle cap.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run the combined audit**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/settings-backup-live-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: PASS. A failure means the independently green hooks conflict and must be debugged before any consolidation.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Consolidate only if the audit exposes duplication**
+
+Keep `SettingsBackup.qml` as the established restore coordinator and its injected wrapper pattern for Displays, Wallpaper, LockScreen, Keybinds, and SystemSettings. If two slices added equivalent settle state, collapse them under the existing timer without changing observable order. Do not create another restore service.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Reconcile search and ownership once**
+
+Run the ownership contract against final pages. Manual search entries may exist only for internal JSON controls with no schema row. Remove duplicate terms that the schema already indexes.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Run and verify GREEN**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/settings-backup-live-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/settings-search-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/settings-ownership-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: all PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Commit only audit-driven corrections**
+
+If Step 2 or Step 5 required corrections, stage only those files and commit them as `Integrate Phase 2 desktop settings`. If the audit is already green and no consolidation is needed, leave the branch unchanged; an empty ceremony commit is forbidden.
+
+### Task 6: Consolidated completion gate
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify only if verification finds a defect.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Run new contracts**
+
+```bash
+tests/quickshell/application-volume-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/lock-screen-helper-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/lock-screen-service-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/lock-screen-settings-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/wallpaper-policy-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/wallpaper-service-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/wallpaper-settings-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/display-layout-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/display-transaction-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/display-arrangement-contract.sh
+```
+
+Expected: all PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run affected existing contracts**
+
+```bash
+tests/quickshell/sound-page-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/settings-pages-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/settings-search-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/settings-ownership-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/settings-preferences-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/settings-commit-reset-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/settings-backup-live-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/migrations-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/panama-doctor-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/schema-hypr-shape-contract.sh
+```
+
+Expected: all PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Run the one state-changing display contract**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/displays-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: PASS and cleanup proves the physical monitor returns to its captured original mode, scale, transform, x, and y. Stop immediately if the preflight reports a dirty display baseline.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run config and source checks**
+
+```bash
+bash -n config/dot/quickshell/scripts/panama-lock
+bash -n config/dot/quickshell/scripts/panama-idle
+git diff --check
+Hyprland --verify-config
+```
+
+Expected: shell syntax exits 0, diff check is empty, and Hyprland reports `config ok`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Construct changed QML once**
+
+Run the isolated harness collection once and inspect its complete log for `ERROR`, `WARN`, `ReferenceError`, `TypeError`, binding loops, invalid anchors, failed property assignments, and focus-grab failures. Expected: none.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Review requirement coverage and branch state**
+
+Compare the final diff with every heading in the approved spec. Run `git status --short --branch` and `git log --oneline origin/main..HEAD`. Expected: only intentional commits and a clean tree.
+
+### Task 7: Merge, activate, and publish
+
+**Files:** None unless final activation exposes a defect.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Push the feature branch**
+
+Run: `git push -u origin feat/phase2-expectation-gaps`
+
+Expected: remote branch points to the verified head.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Fast-forward clean main**
+
+In `/home/gib/.local/share/Panama`, fetch, prove `main` is clean and not behind an unexpected remote commit, then run `git merge --ff-only feat/phase2-expectation-gaps`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Push main**
+
+Run: `git push origin main`
+
+Expected: `origin/main` equals local `main`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Restart Quickshell once**
+
+Use Panama's verified graceful shell restart action. Do not open repeated harness windows. Confirm `qs list --all` reports one live production instance and inspect only the fresh startup log.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Perform one visual review**
+
+Open Settings once and inspect Sound Applications, Appearance Lock screen and Wallpaper, and Displays Arrangement. Confirm narrow tiled layout, empty states, focus order, and preview/canvas geometry. Locking, wallpaper rotation, and adding a monitor remain user-driven real-world follow-ups unless a safe no-op state already exercises them.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Report exact delivery evidence**
+
+Provide commit range, pushed branch/main state, contract counts, the live display restoration result, Quickshell instance state, and any capability that could not be exercised without external hardware or acquiring the live lock screen.

+# Phase 2 Lock Screen Implementation Plan
+
+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
+
+**Goal:** Make lock-screen appearance configurable from Appearance without editing the tracked hyprlock file or risking an unlocked session.
+
+**Architecture:** Schema-backed values feed an atomic `panama-lock` generator under `$XDG_STATE_HOME`. Hypridle invokes the helper, a small Quickshell service proactively regenerates on relevant changes, and an ordinary QML preview mirrors the selected roles without launching the real locker.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Bash, jq, hyprlock 0.9.6 hyprlang, Quickshell 0.3, Qt 6 QML
+
+**Spec:** `docs/superpowers/specs/2026-08-18-phase2-expectation-gaps-design.md`
+
+## Global Constraints
+
+- Never rewrite `config/dot/hypr/hyprlock.conf` at runtime.
+- Authentication, PAM, arbitrary commands, markup, fonts, and paths are not configurable.
+- Generation is atomic; failure preserves the last valid generated config.
+- `run` falls back to the tracked config if generation fails.
+- Tests never acquire the live session lock.
+- Appearance owns visual controls; Power and Privacy retain their established timing controls.
+
+---
+
+### Task 1: Schema and deterministic generator
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/config/PreferenceSchema.qml`
+- Create: `config/dot/quickshell/scripts/panama-lock`
+- Create: `tests/quickshell/lock-screen-helper-contract.sh`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: `lockBackgroundMode`, `lockBlurLevel`, `lockShowClock`, `lockShowDate`, `lockShowUser`, `lockFadeOnEmpty`, `use24Hour`, `colorScheme`, and wallpaper policy from `settings.json`.
+- Produces: `panama-lock generate`, `panama-lock status`, and `panama-lock run`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing helper contract**
+
+Use temporary `XDG_CONFIG_HOME`, `XDG_STATE_HOME`, `HOME`, fake `hyprctl`, and fake `hyprlock`. Cover literal dark defaults and every background mode. Parse the generated file and assert:
+
+```text
+background.path = screenshot
+background.blur_passes = 3
+background.blur_size = 8
+clock command = date +"%-I:%M"
+date label present = true
+user label present = true
+input-field.fade_on_empty = false
+```
+
+For light solid mode assert `rgba(245, 246, 250, 1.0)`. For wallpaper mode with two fake outputs assert one background block per output and the per-monitor path fallback. Prove invalid enum, blur, boolean, JSON, and path values return to shipped defaults.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run and verify RED**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/lock-screen-helper-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: FAIL because `panama-lock` does not exist.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Add the six schema entries**
+
+Use exact types and defaults:
+
+```qml
+{
+    key: "lockBackgroundMode", type: "enum", def: "screenshot", group: "lockAppearance",
+    label: "Background", detail: "What appears behind the lock screen",
+    options: [
+        { value: "screenshot", label: "Blurred desktop" },
+        { value: "wallpaper", label: "Current wallpaper" },
+        { value: "solid", label: "Solid color" }
+    ]
+},
+{
+    key: "lockBlurLevel", type: "int", def: 3, min: 0, max: 5, step: 1,
+    group: "lockAppearance", label: "Background blur", detail: "Softens what is behind the password field"
+},
+{ key: "lockShowClock", type: "bool", def: true, group: "lockAppearance", label: "Show clock", detail: "Use the desktop's 12 or 24-hour format" },
+{ key: "lockShowDate", type: "bool", def: true, group: "lockAppearance", label: "Show date", detail: "Show the weekday and full date" },
+{ key: "lockShowUser", type: "bool", def: true, group: "lockAppearance", label: "Show user name", detail: "Identify the signed-in account" },
+{ key: "lockFadeOnEmpty", type: "bool", def: false, group: "lockAppearance", label: "Hide password field until typing", detail: "Keep the empty field out of the way" }
+```
+
+Insert these entries using the repository's existing schema object shape; do not add a new schema feature.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Implement `panama-lock`**
+
+Commands and results:
+
+```text
+panama-lock generate  -> atomically writes state/panama/hyprlock.conf
+panama-lock status    -> {"generated":true,"path":"...","fallback":false,"error":""}
+panama-lock run       -> exec hyprlock -c generated; fallback to config/hypr/hyprlock.conf
+```
+
+Read values with `jq`, validate again in Bash, map blur levels exactly as:
+
+```text
+0 -> passes 0, size 1
+1 -> passes 1, size 3
+2 -> passes 2, size 5
+3 -> passes 3, size 8
+4 -> passes 4, size 10
+5 -> passes 5, size 12
+```
+
+Write `generated.tmp`, validate that it is non-empty and contains `auth`, `background`, and `input-field` blocks, then `mv` it into place. On failure remove only the temporary file.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Extend the contract for atomicity and fallback**
+
+Seed a valid generated file, force generation failure through an unwritable fixture target, and prove its checksum is unchanged. Make fake `hyprlock` record argv and prove `run` uses the generated path after success and the tracked fallback after forced failure.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Run and verify GREEN**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/lock-screen-helper-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: PASS for modes, visibility, clock format, validation, atomicity, and fallback.
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Commit the generator**
+
+```bash
+git add config/dot/quickshell/config/PreferenceSchema.qml config/dot/quickshell/scripts/panama-lock tests/quickshell/lock-screen-helper-contract.sh
+git commit -m "Generate managed lock screen configuration"
+```
+
+### Task 2: Make every lock path use the generator
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `config/dot/hypr/hypridle.conf`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/scripts/panama-idle`
+- Create: `config/dot/quickshell/services/LockScreen.qml`
+- Create: `config/dot/quickshell/lock-screen-harness.qml`
+- Create: `tests/quickshell/lock-screen-service-contract.sh`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/lock-screen-helper-contract.sh`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: `panama-lock generate/status` and `DesktopPreferences.revision`.
+- Produces: `LockScreen.generated`, `LockScreen.path`, `LockScreen.lastError`, `LockScreen.busy`, `LockScreen.regenerate()`, and `LockScreen.refresh()`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing service and idle-path contract**
+
+Assert both hypridle sources emit exactly:
+
+```text
+lock_cmd = pidof hyprlock || ~/.config/quickshell/scripts/panama-lock run
+```
+
+Through the QML harness, change one lock preference three times inside 250 ms and prove exactly one helper generation starts. Return malformed status JSON and prove the previous valid path remains while `lastError` becomes **The lock-screen configuration could not be read.**
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run and verify RED**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/lock-screen-service-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: FAIL because the idle paths still invoke `hyprlock` directly and the service is absent.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Update shipped and generated hypridle commands**
+
+Change only `lock_cmd`; preserve blanking, sleep, and lock timing behavior. Keep both shipped/generated idle-command assertions in `tests/quickshell/lock-screen-service-contract.sh`; this repository has no separate idle-lock contract.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Implement `LockScreen.qml`**
+
+Use one `Process` for generation and one for status. Coalesce `DesktopPreferences.revision` through a 250 ms single-shot Timer. On generation exit, call status; accept only JSON with boolean `generated` and string `path`. Keep the last valid status on malformed output.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Run and verify GREEN**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/lock-screen-helper-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/lock-screen-service-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: PASS with one coalesced generation and no live locker process.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Commit lock invocation and service state**
+
+```bash
+git add config/dot/hypr/hypridle.conf config/dot/quickshell/scripts/panama-idle config/dot/quickshell/services/LockScreen.qml config/dot/quickshell/lock-screen-harness.qml tests/quickshell/lock-screen-helper-contract.sh tests/quickshell/lock-screen-service-contract.sh
+git commit -m "Route session locking through Panama"
+```
+
+### Task 3: Appearance card and representative preview
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/LockScreenPreview.qml`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/AppearancePage.qml`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/services/SettingsSearch.qml`
+- Create: `tests/quickshell/lock-screen-settings-contract.sh`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/settings-search-contract.sh`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/README.md`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: schema values, `Wallpaper` effective preview path, `Theme`, and `LockScreen.lastError`.
+- Produces: Appearance **Lock screen** card and search routes for background, blur, clock, date, user name, and password-field behavior.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing UI and routing contract**
+
+Construct the real Appearance page in an isolated QML harness for screenshot, wallpaper, and solid modes. Assert the preview changes background source and visibility without starting `hyprlock`. Assert the six settings route to `appearance`, and no new duplicated setting row appears on Power or Privacy.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run and verify RED**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/lock-screen-settings-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/settings-search-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/settings-ownership-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: FAIL because the preview, card, and group route are absent.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement the preview**
+
+Use a clipped `Rectangle` with one asynchronous, decode-bounded `Image` only in wallpaper mode. Screenshot mode uses a static themed approximation with the configured blur level; solid uses `Theme.bg`. Render clock/date/user/password-field elements from the same preferences. Do not use ShaderEffect, live screencopy, pulse, shimmer, or a repeating animation.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Add the Appearance controls**
+
+Place the card after Wallpaper and before Typography. Use `ChoiceRow` for background, `SliderRow` with `zeroLabel: "Off"` for blur, and `ToggleRow` for the four booleans. Show `LockScreen.lastError` in the card only when non-empty.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Add search and ownership documentation**
+
+Map `lockAppearance` to `appearance`; add manual terms **lock screen background** and **password field** only if the schema labels do not already find them. Document that lock visuals belong to Appearance while lock timing belongs to Power and the existing Privacy mirror.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Run and verify GREEN**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/lock-screen-settings-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/settings-search-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/settings-ownership-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: PASS with zero QML warnings and no additional mirrors.
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Commit the lock-screen Settings experience**
+
+```bash
+git add config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/LockScreenPreview.qml config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/AppearancePage.qml config/dot/quickshell/services/SettingsSearch.qml config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/README.md tests/quickshell/lock-screen-settings-contract.sh tests/quickshell/settings-search-contract.sh

+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: `LockScreen.regenerate()` and `panama-lock status`.
+- Produces: lock regeneration during restore and a redacted `desktop.hyprlock` health check.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write failing restore and health assertions**
+
+Restore a fixture snapshot with non-default lock values and assert regeneration happens after preferences reload and before shell reload. Reset and assert screenshot background, blur level 3, clock/date/user visible, and the empty password field visible, followed by one regeneration. For doctor fixtures, assert `desktop.hyprlock` is `ok` for a valid generated file, `warning` when fallback is in use, and `error` only when neither generated nor tracked config can be used. Assert no wallpaper path appears in copied diagnostics.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run and verify RED**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/settings-backup-live-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/settings-commit-reset-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/panama-doctor-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: FAIL because restore and Health do not know the lock generator.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Add restore ordering and health probe**
+
+Inject `regenerateLock` into `SettingsBackup.qml`, start it after preference reload and idle regeneration, and include its bounded busy state in the existing settle timer. Add one authored doctor check whose parsed status includes no config contents or paths.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run and verify GREEN**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/settings-backup-live-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/settings-commit-reset-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/panama-doctor-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/lock-screen-service-contract.sh`

+# Phase 2 Wallpaper Modes Implementation Plan
+
+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
+
+**Goal:** Extend Panama's thumbnail-first wallpaper picker with verified single, slideshow, and per-monitor policies.
+
+**Architecture:** A pure policy module validates collections, calculates output maps, and owns deterministic shuffle bags. `Wallpaper.qml` remains the sole hyprpaper process boundary and persists manual changes only after `listactive` verifies every output.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Quickshell 0.3, Qt 6 QML/JavaScript, hyprpaper 0.8.4 IPC, Bash fixture contracts
+
+**Spec:** `docs/superpowers/specs/2026-08-18-phase2-expectation-gaps-design.md`
+
+## Global Constraints
+
+- Preserve `wallpaperPath` as the single-image and migration fallback.
+- Reject non-absolute paths, commas, newlines, and UI selections outside scanned candidates.
+- Automatic slideshow changes never rewrite durable policy or spin on failure.
+- No filesystem watcher, animated wallpaper, per-workspace mode, or continuous repaint.
+- A manual policy mutation persists only after full output-map readback succeeds.
+
+---
+
+### Task 1: Schema and pure wallpaper policy
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/config/PreferenceSchema.qml`
+- Create: `config/dot/quickshell/services/WallpaperPolicy.js`
+- Create: `config/dot/quickshell/wallpaper-policy-harness.qml`
+- Create: `tests/quickshell/wallpaper-policy-contract.sh`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: mode, global path, collection, per-monitor map, connected outputs, valid candidates, and shuffle bag.
+- Produces: `validPath`, `validCollection`, `validAssignments`, `effectiveMap`, `orderedNext`, `shuffledBag`, and `shuffledNext`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing policy contract**
+
+Use literal paths `/images/a.jpg`, `/images/b.jpg`, and `/images/c.jpg` with connected outputs `DP-2` and `HDMI-A-1`. Assert:
+
+```json
+single     -> {"DP-2":"/images/a.jpg","HDMI-A-1":"/images/a.jpg"}
+per-monitor -> {"DP-2":"/images/b.jpg","HDMI-A-1":"/images/a.jpg"}
+slideshow item c -> {"DP-2":"/images/c.jpg","HDMI-A-1":"/images/c.jpg"}
+```
+
+Assert missing assignments fall back to the global path, invalid collection entries are skipped, ordered rotation wraps `a -> b -> c -> a`, and a seeded shuffle emits all three literal paths exactly once before any repeat.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run and verify RED**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/wallpaper-policy-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: FAIL because the policy module and harness are missing.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Add schema entries**
+
+Add exact keys and defaults:
+
+```qml
+{
+    key: "wallpaperMode", type: "enum", def: "single", group: "wallpaper",
+    label: "Wallpaper mode", detail: "Use one image, rotate a collection, or choose per display",
+    options: [
+        { value: "single", label: "Single" },
+        { value: "slideshow", label: "Slideshow" },
+        { value: "per-monitor", label: "Per display" }
+    ]
+},
+{
+    key: "wallpaperSlideshowPaths", type: "json", def: ([]), group: "wallpaper", internal: true,
+    label: "Slideshow collection", detail: "Backgrounds selected for rotation"
+},
+{
+    key: "wallpaperIntervalMinutes", type: "int", def: 30, min: 5, max: 1440, step: 5,
+    unit: "min", group: "wallpaper", label: "Change background every", detail: "Time between slideshow images"
+},
+{
+    key: "wallpaperShuffle", type: "bool", def: true, group: "wallpaper",
+    label: "Shuffle", detail: "Show every selected image before repeating"
+},
+{
+    key: "wallpaperPerMonitor", type: "json", def: ({}), group: "wallpaper", internal: true,
+    label: "Per-display backgrounds", detail: "Background assigned to each connected display"
+}
+```
+
+Use `group: "wallpaper"` for every key. Keep the existing `wallpaperPath` pattern unchanged.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Implement the pure policy API**
+
+`validPath` accepts only strings matching `^/[^,\n]+$` that occur in the supplied candidate set. `validCollection` de-duplicates while preserving first appearance. `validAssignments` keeps only connector keys matching `^[A-Za-z0-9_.-]+$` and valid paths. `effectiveMap` returns a plain output-keyed object. Shuffle accepts an injected `random()` function so tests use the literal sequence `0.8, 0.1, 0.6` without mocking global state.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Run and verify GREEN**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/wallpaper-policy-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: PASS for validation, fallback maps, ordered wrap, and shuffle-without-repeat.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Commit policy model**
+
+```bash
+git add config/dot/quickshell/config/PreferenceSchema.qml config/dot/quickshell/services/WallpaperPolicy.js config/dot/quickshell/wallpaper-policy-harness.qml tests/quickshell/wallpaper-policy-contract.sh
+git commit -m "Model wallpaper display policies"
+```
+
+### Task 2: Verified multi-output hyprpaper transaction
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/services/Wallpaper.qml`
+- Create: `config/dot/quickshell/wallpaper-service-harness.qml`
+- Create: `tests/quickshell/wallpaper-service-contract.sh`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/settings-pages-contract.sh`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: `WallpaperPolicy.effectiveMap(...)` and hyprpaper `listactive` output.
+- Produces: `activeByOutput`, `applyPolicy(candidatePolicy, persist)`, `applyCurrentPolicy(persist)`, `setSingle(path)`, `setAssignment(output, path)`, `toggleSlideshowPath(path)`, and `setMode(mode)`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing IPC transaction contract**
+
+Put fake `hyprctl` first on PATH. Make it record each argv and return fixture `listactive` maps. Assert a two-output request calls exactly:
+
+```text
+hyprctl hyprpaper wallpaper DP-2,/images/a.jpg
+hyprctl hyprpaper wallpaper HDMI-A-1,/images/b.jpg
+hyprctl hyprpaper listactive
+```
+
+Assert preferences are written only after exact readback, wrong readback leaves the old policy untouched, and a second output failure stops the transaction and reports **Hyprpaper did not apply that background.**
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run and verify RED**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/wallpaper-service-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: FAIL because `Wallpaper.qml` only tracks one active path and persists after exit status.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Parse complete active state**
+
+Replace `active` as the primary state with `property var activeByOutput: ({})`; keep a compatibility `active` property bound to the first current screen. Parse every `OUTPUT: /absolute/path` line. Reject malformed lines instead of accepting partial state as verification.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Implement the transaction queue**
+
+The operation record contains:
+
+```qml
+{
+    expected: { "DP-2": "/images/a.jpg", "HDMI-A-1": "/images/b.jpg" },
+    remaining: ["DP-2", "HDMI-A-1"],
+    candidatePolicy: { mode: "per-monitor", assignments: { "HDMI-A-1": "/images/b.jpg" } },
+    persist: true,
+    automatic: false
+}
+```
+
+Apply outputs sequentially, then call `listactive`. Compare every expected key and path. Only then write the candidate schema values through `DesktopPreferences.set`. Keep the last verified map visible during work.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Preserve the legacy API safely**
+
+Keep `set(path)` as `return root.setSingle(path)` so SettingsBackup and existing IPC remain compatible until their dedicated integration task changes them. Keep title formatting and scan behavior unchanged.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Run and verify GREEN**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/wallpaper-service-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/settings-pages-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: PASS for exact argv, readback gating, old API compatibility, and failure copy.
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Commit verified application**
+
+```bash
+git add config/dot/quickshell/services/Wallpaper.qml config/dot/quickshell/wallpaper-service-harness.qml tests/quickshell/wallpaper-service-contract.sh tests/quickshell/settings-pages-contract.sh
+git commit -m "Verify wallpaper policy application"
+```
+
+### Task 3: Event-driven slideshow and hotplug settle
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/services/Wallpaper.qml`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/services/WallpaperPolicy.js`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/wallpaper-service-harness.qml`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/wallpaper-policy-contract.sh`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/wallpaper-service-contract.sh`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: validated slideshow collection, interval, shuffle flag, and `Quickshell.screens`.
+- Produces: `advanceSlideshow()`, runtime `slideshowIndex`, `shuffleBag`, and one interval Timer active only for a collection of at least two valid images.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write failing timer and failure tests**
+
+Use a harness-adjustable interval measured in milliseconds while production derives `minutes * 60000`. Assert: empty and one-item collections do not repeat; two items advance once per trigger; automatic application uses `persist: false`; failure keeps the same policy and schedules only the next normal interval; three rapid screen-set changes coalesce into one reapply.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run and verify RED**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/wallpaper-policy-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/wallpaper-service-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: FAIL because no slideshow state or screen-set coalescing exists.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement runtime rotation**
+
+Add one repeating Timer whose `running` expression requires slideshow mode, at least two valid paths, and no active transaction. `advanceSlideshow()` chooses ordered or shuffled next state through `WallpaperPolicy`, updates runtime state only after verified apply, and never sets a preference.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Implement connected-screen coalescing**
+
+Bind a sorted screen-name signature and restart a 350 ms single-shot Timer when it changes. Reapply the current policy with `persist: false`. If a transaction is active, set one boolean follow-up flag rather than creating another queue.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Run and verify GREEN**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/wallpaper-policy-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/wallpaper-service-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: PASS without rapid retry or durable writes during rotation.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Commit runtime policy**
+
+```bash
+git add config/dot/quickshell/services/Wallpaper.qml config/dot/quickshell/services/WallpaperPolicy.js config/dot/quickshell/wallpaper-service-harness.qml tests/quickshell/wallpaper-policy-contract.sh tests/quickshell/wallpaper-service-contract.sh
+git commit -m "Add event-driven wallpaper rotation"
+```
+
+### Task 4: Continuity wallpaper controls
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/WallpaperControls.qml`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/WallpaperPicker.qml`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/AppearancePage.qml`
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/services/SettingsSearch.qml`
+- Create: `tests/quickshell/wallpaper-settings-contract.sh`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/settings-search-contract.sh`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: Wallpaper modes, connected displays, collection membership, assignments, and transaction state.
+- Produces: compact mode controls above the existing grid and mode-aware tile actions/badges.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing UI contract**
+
+Render Appearance in all three modes. Assert Single tile activation calls `setSingle`; Slideshow activation toggles membership and exposes interval/shuffle; Per monitor exposes a display selector and calls `setAssignment` for the selected output. Assert the active image Prism and collection-member check are separate states.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run and verify RED**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/wallpaper-settings-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/settings-search-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: FAIL because only single-image tile activation exists.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement `WallpaperControls.qml`**
+
+Use `ChoiceGrid` for mode, `ChoiceGrid` for output only in per-monitor mode, `SliderRow`-equivalent layout for interval only in slideshow mode, and `SettingsToggle` for shuffle. Controls call Wallpaper transactional methods rather than writing preferences directly.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Make the picker mode-aware**
+
+Add `selectedOutput`, `mode`, `selected(path)`, and `activate(path)` properties/functions. Keep thumbnail decode bounds and event-driven fade. In slideshow mode, draw a quiet check in the upper-right for membership; preserve the Prism border exclusively for the image actually active on the selected/current output.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Integrate and route search**
+
+Place `WallpaperControls` in the existing wallpaper card above `WallpaperPicker`. Add search terms for slideshow, shuffle interval, and per-monitor assignment without creating a new Settings page.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Run and verify GREEN**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/wallpaper-settings-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/settings-search-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/settings-ownership-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: PASS with no new mirrors or QML warnings.
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Commit the wallpaper UI**
+
+```bash
+git add config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/WallpaperControls.qml config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/WallpaperPicker.qml config/dot/quickshell/modules/settings/AppearancePage.qml config/dot/quickshell/services/SettingsSearch.qml tests/quickshell/wallpaper-settings-contract.sh tests/quickshell/settings-search-contract.sh
+git commit -m "Add wallpaper mode controls"
+```
+
+### Task 5: Restore and reset integration
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `config/dot/quickshell/services/SettingsBackup.qml`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/settings-backup-live-contract.sh`
+- Modify: `tests/quickshell/settings-commit-reset-contract.sh`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: `Wallpaper.applyCurrentPolicy(false)`.
+- Produces: policy-aware restore and shipped single-wallpaper reset.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write failing restore assertions**
+
+Restore slideshow and per-monitor fixture snapshots. Assert the restored policy applies after preferences reload, uses `persist: false`, and shell reload waits for the bounded wallpaper transaction. Reset must yield mode `single`, empty collection/assignments, interval 30, shuffle true, and shipped `wallpaperPath` fallback.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run and verify RED**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/settings-backup-live-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/settings-commit-reset-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: FAIL because restore calls `Wallpaper.set(path)` only.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Replace path-only restore**
+
+Inject `applyWallpaperPolicy: function() { return Wallpaper.applyCurrentPolicy(false); }`, include `Wallpaper.busy` in the existing bounded settle condition, and remove the path parameter from the restore callback. Do not create a second wallpaper snapshot format; all policy keys are already in Settings JSON.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run and verify GREEN**
+
+Run: `tests/quickshell/settings-backup-live-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/settings-commit-reset-contract.sh && tests/quickshell/wallpaper-service-contract.sh`
+
+Expected: PASS for both policy modes and shipped reset.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Commit restore integration**
+
+```bash
+git add config/dot/quickshell/services/SettingsBackup.qml tests/quickshell/settings-backup-live-contract.sh tests/quickshell/settings-commit-reset-contract.sh
+git commit -m "Restore complete wallpaper policies"
+```
+
+### Task 6: Slice verification
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Run all wallpaper contracts once**
+
+```bash
+tests/quickshell/wallpaper-policy-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/wallpaper-service-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/wallpaper-settings-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/settings-backup-live-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/settings-commit-reset-contract.sh
+tests/quickshell/settings-search-contract.sh
+```
+
+Expected: all PASS. The live desktop wallpaper is never changed by fixture tests.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Perform one read-only live comparison**
+
+Run: `hyprctl hyprpaper listactive`
+
+Expected: every connected output reports an absolute path; compare it with `Wallpaper.activeByOutput` through the existing IPC/harness without applying an image.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Review formatting and shell state**
+
+Run: `git diff --check && git status --short`
+
+Expected: clean after the Task 5 commit.

+# Panama Health & Recovery Design
+
+## Purpose
+
+Panama Health & Recovery makes the desktop explain itself. It verifies the
+local services, dependencies, links, and integrations that Panama relies on,
+then presents useful recovery actions without asking the user to read logs or
+diagnose a collection of unrelated Linux processes.
+
+The feature is intentionally quiet. A healthy desktop produces no notification,
+banner, or permanent bar ornament. Problems appear in Panama Settings and, when
+actionable, as one restrained bar indicator. User-initiated repairs receive
+immediate Prism OSD or inline feedback.
+
+## Product boundaries
+
+The first release covers Panama-owned or Panama-integrated functionality:
+
+- Hyprland, Quickshell, the notification server, XDG desktop portals, PipeWire,
+  Vicinae, the clipboard watcher, wallpaper, idle policy, and Panama's runtime
+  configuration links.
+- The Panama command collection, screenshot and OCR dependencies, DDC
+  brightness support, and the currently selected terminal and launcher.
+- Nextcloud, RustDesk, KDE Connect, BlueBubbles, Home Assistant, calendar
+  aggregation, and the configured autostart entries.
+- Orphaned Panama processes and inhibitors, including duplicate Caffeine locks.
+- Versions and non-sensitive diagnostic context needed for a useful copied
+  report.
+
+It does not become a package manager, a generic system monitor, or a replacement
+for Fedora's troubleshooting tools. It never installs packages, invokes `sudo`,
+deletes user data, rewrites arbitrary configuration, or repairs services Panama
+does not own.
+
+An optional integration that has never been configured is neutral **Not set
+up**, not a warning. A configured integration that cannot operate is degraded.
+This distinction prevents the health UI from pressuring the user to enable
+features they do not want.
+
+## Information architecture
+
+The existing **Startup & Services** destination becomes **System Health**. This
+avoids two pages reporting the same background services. Its existing Open and
+Refresh actions remain available through the richer health rows.
+
+The page has four levels:
+
+1. A compact summary hero: **Healthy**, **Needs attention**, or **Action
+   required**, the last completed scan time, Refresh, and Copy Report.
+2. An issues-first section shown only when one or more checks are degraded.
+3. Grouped cards for Desktop Foundation, Input & Media, Integrations, and Panama
+   Tools. Healthy rows remain visible but visually quiet.
+4. A short boundary note linking to GNOME or Fedora tools for system areas Panama
+   does not own.
+
+Each row contains a stable title, one-sentence observation, status label, and at
+most one primary action. Actions use concrete language such as **Restart
+Vicinae**, **Repair command link**, **Open Home settings**, or **View setup
+instructions**. There is no generic Fix Everything button.
+
+The Settings sidebar's existing health footer becomes real and clickable. It
+shows the aggregate state and opens System Health. The top bar gains a small
+`HealthIndicator` only while an actionable warning or error exists; clicking it
+opens the same page. Background scans never publish Signal Glass events or
+desktop notifications.
+
+## Diagnostic engine
+
+`config/dot/quickshell/scripts/panama-doctor` is the single operating-system
+boundary. It supports:
+
+- `panama-doctor --json` for a complete versioned snapshot.
+- `panama-doctor --summary` for a concise human-readable installer or terminal
+  result.
+- `panama-doctor --repair CHECK_ID --json` for an explicitly allow-listed repair.
+
+The helper emits one schema:
+
+```json
+{
+  "schemaVersion": 1,
+  "generatedAt": "2026-08-18T12:00:00Z",
+  "summary": {
+    "status": "warning",
+    "healthy": 18,
+    "warnings": 1,
+    "errors": 0,
+    "unconfigured": 2
+  },
+  "checks": [
+    {
+      "id": "launcher.panama-commands",
+      "group": "panama-tools",
+      "title": "Panama Commands",
+      "status": "warning",
+      "detail": "16 of 17 commands are loaded",
+      "action": {
+        "kind": "repair",
+        "label": "Repair command link"
+      }
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+Allowed statuses are `ok`, `warning`, `error`, and `unconfigured`. Check IDs,
+group IDs, titles, and repair mappings are authored constants. Probe output may
+populate observations but can never become a command or executable argument.
+
+Checks run concurrently where doing so is safe, with short per-probe timeouts.
+A failed or timed-out probe yields a check result rather than aborting the whole
+snapshot. Output order is deterministic so tests, copied reports, and visual
+rows do not jump between scans.
+
+No secrets are read. The report may state whether a Home Assistant URL or token
+is configured, but never includes either value. It excludes clipboard contents,
+notification bodies, calendar event data, SSIDs, device addresses, environment
+values, file contents, and command output that has not been explicitly parsed.
+
+## Quickshell state and refresh model
+
+`services/Health.qml` owns the latest accepted snapshot, aggregate severity,
+busy state, last scan time, and the result of the most recent repair. It invokes
+`panama-doctor` with argument arrays through `Process`; UI components never
+construct shell commands.
+
+Health performs one delayed scan after the shell reaches a stable startup state.
+It scans again when the System Health page is opened, when the user presses
+Refresh, and after a repair settles. There is no periodic polling loop while the
+desktop is idle. Services that already expose event-driven state remain the
+authoritative source for their own interactive controls; Health is a diagnostic
+snapshot, not a competing live service model.
+
+Every scan receives a monotonically increasing generation. Late output from an
+older scan is discarded. A malformed snapshot leaves the last valid result in
+place, marks the diagnostic engine unavailable, and offers a bounded Retry.
+
+The shell exposes a typed `health` IPC target with `refresh`, `status`, `open`,
+and `repair(id)` operations. Vicinae gains **Panama: Check System Health**, which
+opens the page and requests a fresh scan through the existing `panama-action`
+dispatcher.
+
+## Repair policy
+
+Repairs are narrow, reversible, and attached to one check. The first release may:
+
+- Restart Panama's user services such as Vicinae, Hyprpaper, or Hypridle.
+- Recreate Panama-owned symlinks when their destination is known and tracked.
+- Reload Vicinae's Panama command collection.
+- Release duplicate user-owned inhibitors whose metadata identifies Panama and
+  Caffeine.
+- Restart Quickshell through the verified `panama-action restart-shell` path.
+- Open the exact Panama Settings page required to finish credentials or entity
+  selection.
+
+Restarting a working service is not presented as a repair. Repairs that interrupt
+visible desktop chrome require a confirmation sheet in Settings. Navigation and
+setup actions do not. Package installation, privileged service changes, display
+mode writes, and destructive cleanup are never automatic; the UI shows concise
+instructions instead.
+
+After a repair, Health rescans and judges success from the observed result. A
+zero exit status alone never turns a row green. Failure remains inline on the
+affected row and also produces the existing Panama action-failure notification
+when the action originated outside Settings.
+
+## Visual language and interaction
+
+System Health uses the established Settings cards and Prism tokens. Healthy
+states use a small muted green dot and subdued **Healthy** copy. Warnings use
+amber; red is reserved for functionality that is configured, required, and
+currently broken. `unconfigured` rows use neutral gray.
+
+The summary hero does not use a decorative gauge, percentage score, pulse,
+shimmer, or animated gradient. A desktop is not “82% healthy.” The headline and
+issue count are more understandable and do not create false precision.
+
+Rows keep their height stable while refreshing. The previous snapshot remains
+visible with a quiet **Checking…** label rather than replacing the page with a
+spinner. Keyboard focus order reaches Refresh, Copy Report, issue rows, repair
+actions, and external handoffs. Status is always expressed in text as well as
+color.
+
+Before production components are edited, the page and degraded bar indicator
+will be shown in several static mocks using the existing Settings geometry. The
+chosen mock must preserve this information architecture and Panama's current
+Prism language rather than introduce a new visual system.
+
+## Failure handling
+
+- Missing required executables become actionable check results.
+- Missing optional applications remain neutral until configured.
+- A doctor crash, timeout, or malformed JSON does not clear the last good
+  snapshot or crash Quickshell.
+- Concurrent refresh requests coalesce into one follow-up scan.
+- A repair request for an unknown or non-repairable ID is rejected before any
+  process starts.
+- Copy Report uses only the already-redacted snapshot and reports clipboard
+  failure inline.
+- If the Settings window is closed during a scan or repair, the process may
+  finish; reopening the page shows the settled result.
+
+## Verification
+
+- Run the real helper against isolated fake command, config, state, and runtime
+  directories and prove every status transition deterministically.
+- Validate the JSON schema, stable check IDs, deterministic ordering, and
+  uniqueness of each ID.
+- Prove unconfigured integrations remain neutral while configured failures are
+  degraded.
+- Prove reports contain no fixture secrets, clipboard text, calendar data,
+  addresses, or unparsed environment values.
+- Exercise every repair through the allow-list, assert its exact command, and
+  prove unknown IDs cannot execute anything.
+- Test scan generations, malformed snapshots, refresh coalescing, repair
+  rescans, and preservation of the last valid state in a Quickshell harness.
+- Verify Settings routing, search entries, the live sidebar footer, and the
+  degraded-only bar indicator without QML warnings.
+- Validate the Vicinae command and typed IPC surface.
+- Run a read-only doctor scan on the real workstation and compare key results to
+  direct service checks. State-changing live repair tests require an actually
+  degraded disposable target or explicit user approval.
+- Restart the live shell, inspect the fresh log, and visually review healthy,
+  warning, error, unconfigured, refreshing, and repair-result states.
+
+## Delivery slices
+
+1. Diagnostic schema, read-only probes, redaction, and contract tests.
+2. `Health.qml`, typed IPC, startup/manual refresh, and fixture harness.
+3. System Health Settings page, live sidebar footer, search, and report copy.
+4. Degraded-only bar indicator and Vicinae command.
+5. Allow-listed repairs, confirmations, post-repair verification, and live audit.
+
+The slices are one feature and land together. Their order keeps the UI backed by
+real diagnostics from its first production render.

+# Phase 2: Close the Expectation Gaps
+
+## Purpose
+
+Phase 2 completes four ordinary desktop capabilities that are conspicuous when
+they are absent: per-application volume, multi-monitor arrangement, lock-screen
+appearance, and wallpaper automation. The goal is not to make Panama broader;
+it is to make the parts people expect in their first week feel native, safe,
+and complete.
+
+The approved visual direction is **A — Continuity**. New controls use Panama's
+existing two-pane Settings window, restrained cards, Prism selection marks, and
+Tokyo Night Moon tokens. The monitor canvas and lock-screen preview are the only
+new visual forms. There is no inspector sidebar, dashboard-within-a-dashboard,
+or new navigation level.
+
+## Product boundaries
+
+Phase 2 includes:
+
+- Live volume and mute controls grouped by playback application.
+- Positioning connected displays, selecting Panama's primary display, and
+  preserving the existing mode, scale, rotation, confirmation, and rollback
+  behavior.
+- Choosing the lock-screen background treatment and visibility of its clock,
+  date, user label, and idle password field.
+- Single-image, slideshow, and per-monitor wallpaper modes, including an
+  explicit slideshow collection, shuffle, and interval.
+
+It does not include audio routing between applications, equalizers, PipeWire
+profiles, disabling displays, display mirroring, full-time HDR, animated
+wallpapers, per-workspace wallpapers, a lock-screen plugin system, or arbitrary
+hyprlock configuration. Those would expand four expectation-closing features
+into four general-purpose configuration tools.
+
+Phase 3 remains responsible for Control Center mirrors and contextual
+"configure this" affordances. Phase 4 remains responsible for user accents and
+named themes.
+
+## Shared principles
+
+Each area has one source of truth:
+
+- PipeWire owns live stream volume. Panama does not persist ephemeral streams.
+- `DesktopPreferences.displays` owns confirmed display layout overrides.
+- Panama's schema owns lock appearance and generates the effective hyprlock
+  file under the user state directory.
+- Panama's schema owns wallpaper policy; hyprpaper owns the pixels currently
+  displayed.
+
+Settings components call typed service methods. They never construct shell
+commands. External writes use argument arrays, validate user-authored values,
+and verify observable state where the target exposes readback.
+
+No feature adds a continuous animation or short polling loop. PipeWire and the
+screen model are event-driven. Wallpaper rotation wakes only at its configured
+interval. Lock configuration regenerates only after a relevant preference
+change. Display reads happen when the page opens, after an operation, and when
+the connected-screen set changes.
+
+## Application volume
+
+### State and grouping
+
+`services/AudioDevices.qml` gains a playback-stream view derived from
+`Pipewire.nodes.values`. A playback stream is a ready `PwNode` whose type
+contains `PwNodeType.AudioOutStream`, has an audio interface, and is not a
+physical device.
+
+Streams are grouped into applications using the first non-empty stable identity
+from PipeWire's properties:
+
+1. `application.id`
+2. `application.process.binary`
+3. `application.name`
+4. the node ID as a final per-stream fallback
+
+The display label prefers `application.name`, then `node.description`,
+`media.name`, and finally **Unknown application**. The icon prefers
+`application.icon_name`; the delegate falls back to a generic audio-application
+symbolic icon. Property values are presentation data only and never become
+commands or file paths.
+
+One application row may own several simultaneous streams. Its displayed volume
+is the arithmetic mean of the tracked stream volumes. Moving the row writes the
+same requested level to every stream in the group. The row is muted only when
+every stream is muted; pressing mute applies one state to all streams. Moving a
+slider always unmutes every stream, matching the existing device controls.
+
+New streams appear and closed streams disappear through PipeWire's node model.
+There is no saved per-application volume map: persisting a browser tab or media
+session identity would restore stale state to unrelated future streams.
+
+### Settings experience
+
+Sound gains an **Applications** card beneath Output and Input. Each active
+playback application has an icon, application name, optional stream-count or
+media detail, mute button, slider, and percentage. Rows remain stable while a
+stream's properties update.
+
+When nothing is playing, the card remains visible with the quiet direction:
+**Applications playing sound will appear here.** PipeWire discovery failure is
+distinct and directs the user to System Health.
+
+The existing Fedora handoff becomes **Device profiles**. Panama now owns
+application volume, while Fedora's panel remains the advanced route for codec
+and hardware profile selection.
+
+### Failure behavior
+
+- A node that disappears during a drag is ignored without affecting surviving
+  streams in the group.
+- A stream without writable audio state remains visible as unavailable rather
+  than crashing the model.
+- Mixed mute state is represented as unmuted; the next explicit mute action
+  makes the group consistent.
+- No stream metadata is written to logs or the settings store.
+
+## Multi-monitor arrangement
+
+### Persisted layout
+
+The existing `displays` JSON remains the single preference and keeps its
+backward-compatible per-output shape. Confirmed entries gain three fields:
+
+```json
+{
+  "DP-2": {
+    "mode": "[email protected]",
+    "scale": 1.5,
+    "transform": 0,
+    "x": 0,
+    "y": 0,
+    "primary": true
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Old entries without `x`, `y`, or `primary` remain valid. They use automatic
+placement until the first confirmed arrangement. Exactly one connected output
+is primary in a confirmed multi-monitor layout. Single-monitor layouts make the
+only output primary automatically.
+
+Wayland has no universal primary-display protocol. **Primary** is therefore an
+honest Panama role: it anchors the saved coordinate system at logical `0,0` and
+is listed first in Panama's display and per-monitor wallpaper selectors.
+Panama's current overlays continue following the focused monitor; this phase
+does not silently move them. The role does not claim to force arbitrary
+third-party Wayland applications to open on a particular output.
+
+Positions are integer logical pixels after scale and rotation. Before apply,
+the service normalizes every coordinate relative to the selected primary
+display. Negative coordinates are allowed for displays physically left of or
+above the primary.
+
+### Apply, verify, and rollback
+
+`services/Displays.qml` moves from a one-output pending record to a whole-layout
+transaction. A request contains every connected output's mode, scale,
+transform, position, and primary flag.
+
+The service:
+
+1. Validates every output, offered mode, clean scale, transform, integer
+   coordinate, and the single-primary invariant.
+2. Captures the complete current connected layout.
+3. Applies the complete requested layout through one generated, allow-listed
+   Hyprland Lua evaluation.
+4. Reads all monitors back and enables **Keep** only when every field matches.
+5. Reverts the complete captured layout after 15 seconds unless confirmed.
+6. Persists only the verified requested layout when **Keep** is pressed.
+7. Reads the reverted layout back and reports if restoration cannot be proven.
+
+A disconnected output invalidates an in-flight transaction and triggers
+rollback for every still-connected output. A newly connected output receives
+automatic placement; the connected-screen event refreshes the page, but the
+new geometry is not persisted until the user confirms a layout. Stored
+overrides for disconnected outputs are retained for reconnect, but never
+participate in a live transaction while absent.
+
+`hypr/monitors.lua` validates and replays the extended entries at startup. The
+shipped DP-2 bit depth and color-management policy remain authoritative and are
+not moved into user preferences.
+
+### Settings experience
+
+Displays gains an **Arrangement** card above the selected-display controls when
+more than one monitor is connected. The canvas scales the complete logical
+desktop into its available area while preserving real aspect ratios. Monitor
+tiles show the human display name and connector. The selected tile gets the
+Prism outline; the primary tile also receives a restrained **Primary** label.
+
+Dragging moves a tile and snaps nearby edges. The change remains a draft until
+pointer release, when the normal 15-second confirmation transaction begins.
+Focused tiles also support arrow-key movement, with Shift for larger steps, so
+arrangement is not pointer-only. **Make primary** normalizes the draft around
+that display and enters the same confirmation flow.
+
+**Identify** briefly draws a static numbered overlay on every connected screen.
+The overlay has no repeating animation and dismisses itself after three seconds.
+
+The existing resolution, scale, rotation, DDC brightness, Night Light, and
+gaming-policy cards remain. Display selection now follows selection in the
+arrangement canvas but still has a compact textual selector for narrow layouts.
+
+## Lock-screen appearance
+
+### Generated configuration
+
+The tracked `hyprlock.conf` remains the documented shipped fallback. A new
+`scripts/panama-lock` helper generates the effective configuration at
+`$XDG_STATE_HOME/panama/hyprlock.conf` and launches:
+
+```text
+hyprlock -c $XDG_STATE_HOME/panama/hyprlock.conf
+```
+
+The helper supports `generate`, `run`, and `status`. It reads only validated
+schema values, writes through a temporary file followed by an atomic rename,
+and never edits the repository symlink under `~/.config/hypr`.
+
+Both the shipped and Panama-managed hypridle configurations use
+`pidof hyprlock || panama-lock run` as `lock_cmd`. Existing `loginctl
+lock-session` actions remain unchanged; hypridle receives the session lock
+request and invokes the configured locker. If generation fails, `run` falls
+back to the tracked `hyprlock.conf` rather than leaving the session unlocked.
+
+Relevant preference changes coalesce into one regeneration. They never restart
+or mutate a lock screen that is already active; the next lock uses the new
+file.
+
+### User-facing settings
+
+Appearance owns a **Lock screen** card because these choices are visual. Power
+continues to own blank, lock, and suspend timing, and Privacy continues to mirror
+the two established security controls.
+
+The card exposes:
+
+- **Background**: blurred desktop, current wallpaper, or solid theme color.
+- **Background blur**: Off through Strong, stored as a small integer level and
+  mapped by the generator to bounded blur passes and size.
+- **Show clock**, **Show date**, and **Show user name**.
+- **Hide password field until typing**, mapped to hyprlock's empty-field fade.
+
+The clock follows the existing global 12/24-hour preference; there is no second
+clock-format setting. Current-wallpaper mode resolves the effective wallpaper
+for each monitor, with the shipped image as fallback. Solid mode uses the
+current light/dark scheme's background role. User-authored markup, commands,
+fonts, and arbitrary paths are not accepted.
+
+An inline preview uses ordinary QML and the current Theme tokens. It shows the
+chosen visibility and background treatment but does not start hyprlock or
+capture the desktop. The preview is explicitly representative, not a second
+renderer that promises pixel identity with hyprlock.
+
+### Failure behavior
+
+- Missing or malformed preferences use shipped defaults.
+- An unavailable selected wallpaper falls back to the shipped image and reports
+  the fallback in Settings.
+- Generation failure leaves the last valid generated file in place.
+- `run` falling back to the tracked config is logged as a bounded diagnostic
+  status and remains visible in System Health.
+- Lock authentication and PAM configuration are never made adjustable.
+
+## Wallpaper modes
+
+### Preference model
+
+The existing `wallpaperPath` remains the single-image choice and migration
+fallback. The schema adds:
+
+- `wallpaperMode`: `single`, `slideshow`, or `per-monitor`.
+- `wallpaperSlideshowPaths`: a validated JSON array of absolute image paths.
+- `wallpaperIntervalMinutes`: an integer from 5 to 1,440.
+- `wallpaperShuffle`: a boolean.
+- `wallpaperPerMonitor`: a validated JSON object from connector name to image
+  path.
+
+Path validation retains the existing absolute-path, no-comma, no-newline rule
+because hyprpaper receives `output,path` as one IPC argument. The service also
+requires a selected path to exist in its scanned image candidates before a UI
+action stores it. Hand-edited missing paths are tolerated at load and skipped
+with a visible warning.
+
+### Runtime policy
+
+`services/Wallpaper.qml` owns one effective path per connected output and
+parses `hyprpaper listactive` into an output-to-path map.
+
+- **Single** applies `wallpaperPath` to every output.
+- **Per monitor** applies `wallpaperPerMonitor[output]`, falling back to
+  `wallpaperPath` when an output has no assignment.
+- **Slideshow** rotates the selected collection on every output. Sequential
+  mode advances in collection order. Shuffle mode uses a shuffled in-memory bag
+  and does not repeat an image until every valid selected image has appeared.
+
+The slideshow timer wakes only at the configured minute interval. It does not
+rewrite `wallpaperPath` on every rotation. Its current item and shuffle bag are
+runtime state; the policy and collection are the durable state.
+
+Every manual policy change applies all connected outputs, reads `listactive`
+back, and persists only after the expected output map matches. An automatic
+slideshow transition keeps the previous policy on failure, reports the problem,
+and retries at the next interval rather than entering a rapid retry loop.
+
+When the connected-screen set changes, Wallpaper reapplies the current policy
+to the new set after a short coalescing delay. There is no generic filesystem
+watcher: Rescan remains explicit, and startup performs the existing bounded
+scan.
+
+### Settings experience
+
+Appearance keeps the current thumbnail-first wallpaper card. A compact mode
+control sits above the grid:
+
+- In **Single**, tapping a tile immediately applies it everywhere.
+- In **Slideshow**, tapping toggles membership in the collection. Interval and
+  shuffle controls appear beneath the mode row. The active image still receives
+  the Prism outline, while selected collection members receive a quieter
+  checkmark treatment.
+- In **Per monitor**, a connected-display selector appears above the grid and
+  tapping assigns the tile to that output. Each output's current assignment is
+  named in the card summary.
+
+Mode-specific controls disappear when irrelevant; the grid itself does not
+change size or become a nested settings panel. Empty slideshow collections
+explain how to select images and do not start a timer. A collection containing
+one valid image behaves as a static background and says so.
+
+## Search, reset, backup, and ownership
+
+Search routes application volume to Sound, arrangement and primary display to
+Displays, lock appearance to Appearance, and wallpaper automation to
+Appearance. Lock timing continues to route to Power.
+
+Schema-backed lock and wallpaper values participate automatically in reset and
+snapshots. The extended `displays` value remains protected by the existing
+display-restore transaction during snapshot restore. Restore order is:
+
+1. Restore and validate preference files.
+2. Apply the protected confirmed display layout.
+3. Regenerate idle and lock configuration.
+4. Apply wallpaper policy.
+5. Reload the shell only after those operations settle or reach their bounded
+   failure state.
+
+Reset returns to the shipped static wallpaper, blurred screenshot lock screen,
+and shipped/automatic display layout. It never changes physical audio stream
+volumes because those are not preferences.
+
+The Settings ownership ledger is updated only for new search groups and links;
+none of these controls creates a new cross-page mirror.
+
+## Error presentation
+
+Errors stay on the page and name the failed boundary: **PipeWire is
+unavailable**, **The display layout could not be verified**, **The lock-screen
+configuration could not be generated**, or **Hyprpaper did not apply that
+background**. There is no generic "Something went wrong."
+
+Previous valid state remains visible during refresh and apply. Busy controls
+disable only the operation they conflict with. Display confirmation remains
+pinned above the page because it is the only time-sensitive state in Phase 2.
+
+## Verification strategy
+
+Tests are written before each production slice and use real service behavior at
+the narrowest safe boundary.
+
+### Application audio
+
+- Construct complete PipeWire-shaped stream fixtures and prove grouping,
+  labeling, average volume, mute normalization, and disappearing-node behavior.
+- Render the real application mixer with multiple streams, missing metadata,
+  an empty stream list, and unavailable PipeWire state.
+- Perform one final live read against current streams; it does not start audio
+  or alter any stream unless a disposable test stream is available.
+
+### Displays
+
+- Exercise layout normalization, edge snapping, validation, persistence, and
+  startup replay with literal multi-monitor fixtures.
+- Prove confirmation remains disabled until every output matches.
+- Prove timeout, explicit revert, apply failure, disconnect, and failed-revert
+  paths restore the complete original layout.
+- Keep development tests static. Run the existing live single-monitor display
+  contract once at feature completion. Do not invent a second physical display
+  in the live compositor; multi-monitor behavior is tested through controlled
+  compositor fixtures.
+
+### Lock screen
+
+- Run `panama-lock generate` against isolated settings, state, and wallpaper
+  fixtures and compare parsed hyprlock values, not source-text fragments.
+- Prove every background mode, visibility control, global clock format, invalid
+  input fallback, atomic replacement, last-good preservation, and run fallback.
+- Validate generated configuration with hyprlock's config checker when the
+  installed version exposes one; otherwise run a parser-only disposable launch
+  that cannot acquire the live session lock.
+- Never activate the live lock screen automatically during tests.
+
+### Wallpaper
+
+- Use a fake hyprpaper IPC boundary and real temporary image files to prove
+  output maps, verification-before-persist, fallback, collection validation,
+  sequential order, shuffle-without-repeat, and interval clamping.
+- Prove automatic failures do not spin or rewrite policy.
+- Perform one final live no-op readback against the already active wallpaper.
+  Do not cycle the user's desktop through test images.
+
+### Consolidated completion gate
+
+- Run all new contracts and the existing Settings, Sound, Displays, backup,
+  ownership, migration, schema, and Hyprland configuration contracts once.
+- Construct every changed QML surface without warnings in isolated harnesses.
+- Run `Hyprland --verify-config` once.
+- Restart Quickshell once after merge, inspect the fresh log, and visually
+  review the four finished experiences. Avoid repeated windows, reloads, and
+  live display changes during development.
+
+## Delivery order
+
+The phase is implemented as four independently green slices on one feature
+branch:
+
+1. Application mixer — event-driven and lowest risk.
+2. Generated lock appearance — establishes the safe state-file pattern.
+3. Wallpaper policy — reuses that state discipline and extends existing IPC.
+4. Display arrangement — highest-risk slice, implemented after the supporting
+   Settings patterns and contracts are settled.
+
+Each slice receives a focused commit after its contracts pass. The branch is
+merged only when the consolidated completion gate passes. The visual mock is a
+design reference, not a production dependency and is not committed.
