Stage 3 and 4 of docs/superpowers/plans/2026-08-17-panama-cohesion.md. Add SettingsPage plus ToggleRow, SliderRow, ChoiceRow, ActionRow, and TextRow. A row names a schema key and needs nothing else: label, detail, range, and unit come from PreferenceSchema, and writes go through SystemSettings.commitPreference, which routes compositor-backed keys through apply-and-verify and local keys straight to the store. The page scaffold that was copy-pasted eleven times is now one component. Rebuild Appearance around a live preview of the real desktop, scaled by the ratio between the preview and the actual monitor so a 10px gap on a 4500px display looks as small as it is. Rebuild Desktop & Dock and Input & Shortcuts on the shared rows, replacing the read-only text that stood in for controls that were merely expensive to add. Generate the shortcut list from hyprctl binds. The page held a hand-typed nineteen entries against a real keymap of a hundred and thirteen; it could not show the rest and went stale whenever a bind changed. Every bind now carries its own description -- backfilled for the twenty-nine that lacked one -- and keybinds-contract.sh fails if any bind lacks one, since undescribed binds are dropped from the page. Make Restore defaults span every store Panama owns. Resetting only the schema store left the Home accessory arrangement customised while claiming to restore defaults, which is worse than no reset because it is silent. Done through HomePreferences' existing public aliases rather than a new API. Four defects found while building: cursor:inactive_timeout is answered by getoption as float, not int. A wrong readAs does not fail loudly; it makes every write to that key look rejected, and the user saw an error for a change that worked. schema-hypr-shape-contract.sh now checks all 23 mapped options against the running compositor. The Settings window is tiled, so implicitWidth is only a hint and rows must survive roughly 400px. SliderRow stacks its control under the label below 520px. Binding an anchor to undefined to switch layouts does not reliably release it. Both row layouts are positioned explicitly. Concurrent compositor writes are queued and merged rather than refused. The startup replay of every compositor-backed preference routinely overlaps a UI change, and refusing left the store and the compositor disagreeing.

Panama
Formerly Sunhat. A personal config for Fedora, with the intention of helping a user set up their Fedora system with one command.
git clone https://git.gbrown.org/gib/Panama.git ~/.local/share/Panama
~/.local/share/Panama/install
install runs everything in setup/scripts/ in order:
| Script | Does |
|---|---|
install-packages |
Repos (RPM Fusion, Terra, Hyprland COPR), then the four package lists in setup/packages/ |
link-dotfiles |
Symlinks config/dot/<name> → ~/.config/<name> |
change-settings |
Copies config/copy/ over /, applies gsettings, enables user services |
Existing configs are moved to config/old/ rather than overwritten.
Desktops
Panama configures two desktops that coexist. Both sessions stay available in GDM, so you can switch back and forth while you settle in.
GNOME
The original setup: Forge for tiling, Dash-to-Dock, Openbar, Vitals,
AppIndicator support. Configured through config/dot/forge/ and gsettings.
Hyprland
A from-scratch replacement built to reproduce the GNOME setup closely enough that muscle memory transfers — same keybinds, same panel contents, same dock, same Tokyo Night Moon palette.

Compositor config. Lua, not hyprlang — see its README |

full keymap, and troubleshooting.
