Harden Panama launcher actions

Light is Tokyo Night Day, the palette's own light variant, rather than
one invented to merely not be dark. Both share the same hues at
different lightness, which is what lets the Prism signature survive the
switch: blue still leads into orchid, it is simply a darker blue on a
lighter ground.

Every colour token became a binding on one boolean, so flipping it
repaints the whole shell without any component needing to know it
happened. That only worked because nothing outside Theme.qml defines a
colour; the two places that did are fixed here.

Surface alphas differ by scheme. The 0.34 that reads as glass over a
dark desktop reads as haze over a light one, and text stops being
legible on it.

Two things that draw on this desktop do not read Panama's store: GTK
applications, which read gsettings, and the compositor, which draws
window borders. A toolbar or a border still wearing the other scheme is
more jarring than either scheme on its own, so ColorScheme pushes the
choice to both. It also pushes at startup, since a scheme chosen in a
previous session would otherwise be in effect only for the shell.

The unfocused window border follows too. It is a flat neutral, and a
dark neutral is invisible against a light desktop. The focused border is
the prism gradient and needs no variant.

The live preview follows the scheme as well. A preview that stayed dark
while the shell around it went light did not read as "your desktop", it
read as a screenshot of someone else's.

 - `shell/plugins/osd/Osd.qml` and `OsdModel.js`: inspired the separation between a pure presentation model and a single, click-through per-monitor OSD surface. Panama rebuilt the behavior around freedesktop symbolic icons, Tokyo Night Moon tokens, its Prism glass material, Hyprland's focused monitor, and the existing `wpctl`/`brightnessctl`/`playerctl` keybindings.
 - `test/shell.d/osd-test.sh` and Omarchy's broader shell contract suite: reinforced Panama's use of fast model and integration contracts alongside live compositor verification.
 - Omarchy's small shared visual primitives: reinforced the decision to maintain `prism-gallery.qml`, which renders Panama's production widgets and Theme tokens instead of duplicating mock-only controls.
+- `shell/plugins/menu/Menu.qml`: inspired a searchable desktop-action inventory. Panama keeps Vicinae as its one launcher and exposes native script commands backed by a single `panama-action` dispatcher, rather than adding Omarchy's separate shell menu or plugin host.
 
 No Omarchy user-facing layout or styling was transplanted. Panama keeps its GNOME-derived information architecture, Prism material, Tokyo Night Moon palette, app model, and established interaction choices.
 
 ### Candidates still under evaluation
 
-- A command palette for shell actions, with Vicinae remaining the application launcher.
 - A plugin boundary for optional bar widgets and services once Panama has enough third-party modules to justify one.
 - A small first-run health check for missing desktop dependencies and broken service integrations.
