chore(owlry-lua): bump version to 1.1.2

reqwest 0.13 defaults to rustls -> aws-lc-rs which requires cmake/nasm
in minimal build environments (AUR chroot). Switch all direct reqwest
users to native-tls (system OpenSSL) to fix clean chroot build failures
reported by users.

Affected crates: owlry-core, owlry-lua, owlry-rune
PKGBUILD: add openssl to depends for all three runtime packages
Also add scripts/aur-local-test for clean chroot testing workflow

+# Codebase Hardening 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:** Fix 15 soundness, security, robustness, and quality issues across owlry core and owlry-plugins repos.
+
+**Architecture:** Point fixes organized into 5 severity tiers. Each tier is one commit. Core repo (owlry) tiers 1-3 first, then plugins repo (owlry-plugins) tiers 4-5. No new features, no refactoring beyond what each fix requires.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Rust 1.90+, abi_stable 0.11, toml 0.8, dirs 5.0
+
+**Repos:**
+- Core: `/home/cnachtigall/ssd/git/archive/owlibou/owlry`
+- Plugins: `/home/cnachtigall/ssd/git/archive/owlibou/owlry-plugins`
+
+---
+
+## Task 1: Tier 1 — Critical / Soundness (owlry core)
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `crates/owlry-plugin-api/src/lib.rs:297-320`
+- Modify: `crates/owlry-core/src/server.rs:1-6,91-123,127-215`
+
+### 1a. Replace `static mut HOST_API` with `OnceLock`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Replace the static mut and init function**
+
+In `crates/owlry-plugin-api/src/lib.rs`, replace lines 297-320:
+
+```rust
+// Old:
+// static mut HOST_API: Option<&'static HostAPI> = None;
+//
+// pub unsafe fn init_host_api(api: &'static HostAPI) {
+//     unsafe {
+//         HOST_API = Some(api);
+//     }
+// }
+//
+// pub fn host_api() -> Option<&'static HostAPI> {
+//     unsafe { HOST_API }
+// }
+
+// New:
+use std::sync::OnceLock;
+
+static HOST_API: OnceLock<&'static HostAPI> = OnceLock::new();
+
+/// Initialize the host API (called by the host)
+///
+/// # Safety
+/// Must only be called once by the host before any plugins use the API
+pub unsafe fn init_host_api(api: &'static HostAPI) {
+    let _ = HOST_API.set(api);
+}
+
+/// Get the host API
+///
+/// Returns None if the host hasn't initialized the API yet
+pub fn host_api() -> Option<&'static HostAPI> {
+    HOST_API.get().copied()
+}
+```
+
+Note: `init_host_api` keeps its `unsafe` signature for API compatibility even though `OnceLock::set` is safe. The `unsafe` documents the caller contract.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Verify the plugin-api crate compiles**
+
+Run: `cargo check -p owlry-plugin-api`
+Expected: success, no warnings about `static mut`
+
+### 1b. Add IPC message size limit
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Add size-limited read loop in server.rs**
+
+In `crates/owlry-core/src/server.rs`, add the constant near the top of the file (after the imports):
+
+```rust
+/// Maximum size of a single IPC request line (1 MB)
+const MAX_REQUEST_SIZE: usize = 1_048_576;
+```
+
+Replace the `handle_client` method (lines 91-123). Change the `for line in reader.lines()` loop to a manual `read_line` loop with size checking:
+
+```rust
+fn handle_client(
+    stream: UnixStream,
+    pm: Arc<Mutex<ProviderManager>>,
+    frecency: Arc<Mutex<FrecencyStore>>,
+    config: Arc<Config>,
+) -> io::Result<()> {
+    let reader = BufReader::new(stream.try_clone()?);
+    let mut writer = stream;
+    let mut reader = reader;
+    let mut line = String::new();
+
+    loop {
+        line.clear();
+        let bytes_read = reader.read_line(&mut line)?;
+        if bytes_read == 0 {
+            break; // EOF
+        }
+
+        if line.len() > MAX_REQUEST_SIZE {
+            let resp = Response::Error {
+                message: "request too large".to_string(),
+            };
+            write_response(&mut writer, &resp)?;
+            break; // Drop connection
+        }
+
+        let trimmed = line.trim();
+        if trimmed.is_empty() {
+            continue;
+        }
+
+        let request: Request = match serde_json::from_str(trimmed) {
+            Ok(req) => req,
+            Err(e) => {
+                let resp = Response::Error {
+                    message: format!("invalid request JSON: {}", e),
+                };
+                write_response(&mut writer, &resp)?;
+                continue;
+            }
+        };
+
+        let response = Self::handle_request(&request, &pm, &frecency, &config);
+        write_response(&mut writer, &response)?;
+    }
+
+    Ok(())
+}
+```
+
+### 1c. Handle mutex poisoning gracefully
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Replace all lock().unwrap() in handle_request**
+
+In `crates/owlry-core/src/server.rs`, in the `handle_request` method, replace every occurrence of `.lock().unwrap()` with `.lock().unwrap_or_else(|e| e.into_inner())`. There are instances in the `Query`, `Launch`, `Providers`, `Refresh`, `Submenu`, and `PluginAction` arms.
+
+For example, the Query arm changes from:
+```rust
+let pm_guard = pm.lock().unwrap();
+let frecency_guard = frecency.lock().unwrap();
+```
+to:
+```rust
+let pm_guard = pm.lock().unwrap_or_else(|e| e.into_inner());
+let frecency_guard = frecency.lock().unwrap_or_else(|e| e.into_inner());
+```
+
+Apply this pattern to all `.lock().unwrap()` calls in `handle_request`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Build and test the core crate**
+
+Run: `cargo check -p owlry-core && cargo test -p owlry-core`
+Expected: all checks pass, all existing tests pass
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Commit Tier 1**
+
+```bash
+cd /home/cnachtigall/ssd/git/archive/owlibou/owlry
+git add crates/owlry-plugin-api/src/lib.rs crates/owlry-core/src/server.rs
+git commit -m "fix: soundness — OnceLock for HOST_API, IPC size limits, mutex poisoning recovery"
+```
+
+---
+
+## Task 2: Tier 2 — Security (owlry core)
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `crates/owlry-core/src/server.rs:1-6,29-36,91-123`
+- Modify: `crates/owlry-core/src/main.rs:26-32`
+
+### 2a. Set socket permissions after bind
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Add permission setting in Server::bind**
+
+In `crates/owlry-core/src/server.rs`, add the import at the top:
+
+```rust
+use std::os::unix::fs::PermissionsExt;
+```
+
+In `Server::bind()`, after the `UnixListener::bind(socket_path)?;` line, add:
+
+```rust
+std::fs::set_permissions(socket_path, std::fs::Permissions::from_mode(0o600))?;
+```
+
+### 2b. Log signal handler failure
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Replace .ok() with warning log in main.rs**
+
+In `crates/owlry-core/src/main.rs`, add `use log::warn;` to the imports, then replace lines 26-32:
+
+```rust
+// Old:
+// ctrlc::set_handler(move || {
+//     let _ = std::fs::remove_file(&sock_cleanup);
+//     std::process::exit(0);
+// })
+// .ok();
+
+// New:
+if let Err(e) = ctrlc::set_handler(move || {
+    let _ = std::fs::remove_file(&sock_cleanup);
+    std::process::exit(0);
+}) {
+    warn!("Failed to set signal handler: {}", e);
+}
+```
+
+### 2c. Add client read timeout
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Set read timeout on accepted connections**
+
+In `crates/owlry-core/src/server.rs`, add `use std::time::Duration;` to the imports.
+
+In the `handle_client` method, at the very top (before the `BufReader` creation), add:
+
+```rust
+stream.set_read_timeout(Some(Duration::from_secs(30)))?;
+```
+
+This means the `stream` passed to `handle_client` needs to be mutable, or we set it on the clone. Since `set_read_timeout` takes `&self` (not `&mut self`), we can call it directly:
+
+```rust
+fn handle_client(
+    stream: UnixStream,
+    pm: Arc<...>,
+    frecency: Arc<...>,
+    config: Arc<Config>,
+) -> io::Result<()> {
+    stream.set_read_timeout(Some(Duration::from_secs(30)))?;
+    let reader = BufReader::new(stream.try_clone()?);
+    // ... rest unchanged
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Build and test**
+
+Run: `cargo check -p owlry-core && cargo test -p owlry-core`
+Expected: all checks pass, all existing tests pass
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Commit Tier 2**
+
+```bash
+cd /home/cnachtigall/ssd/git/archive/owlibou/owlry
+git add crates/owlry-core/src/server.rs crates/owlry-core/src/main.rs
+git commit -m "fix: security — socket perms 0600, signal handler logging, client read timeout"

+- [ ] **Step 1: Add warn! for JSON parse errors**
+
+In `crates/owlry-core/src/server.rs`, in the `handle_client` method, in the JSON parse error arm, add a warning log before the error response:
+
+```rust
+Err(e) => {
+    warn!("Malformed request from client: {}", e);
+    let resp = Response::Error {
+        message: format!("invalid request JSON: {}", e),
+    };
+    write_response(&mut writer, &resp)?;
+    continue;
+}
+```
+
+### 3b. Replace Mutex with RwLock
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Change Server struct and imports**
+
+In `crates/owlry-core/src/server.rs`, change the import from `Mutex` to `RwLock`:
+
+```rust
+use std::sync::{Arc, RwLock};
+```
+
+Change the `Server` struct fields:
+
+```rust
+pub struct Server {
+    listener: UnixListener,
+    socket_path: PathBuf,
+    provider_manager: Arc<RwLock<ProviderManager>>,
+    frecency: Arc<RwLock<FrecencyStore>>,
+    config: Arc<Config>,
+}
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Update Server::bind**
+
+In `Server::bind()`, change `Arc::new(Mutex::new(...))` to `Arc::new(RwLock::new(...))`:
+
+```rust
+Ok(Self {
+    listener,
+    socket_path: socket_path.to_path_buf(),
+    provider_manager: Arc::new(RwLock::new(provider_manager)),
+    frecency: Arc::new(RwLock::new(frecency)),
+    config: Arc::new(config),
+})
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Update handle_client and handle_request signatures**
+
+Change `handle_client` parameter types:
+
+```rust
+fn handle_client(
+    stream: UnixStream,
+    pm: Arc<RwLock<ProviderManager>>,
+    frecency: Arc<RwLock<FrecencyStore>>,
+    config: Arc<Config>,
+) -> io::Result<()> {
+```
+
+Change `handle_request` parameter types:
+
+```rust
+fn handle_request(
+    request: &Request,
+    pm: &Arc<RwLock<ProviderManager>>,
+    frecency: &Arc<RwLock<FrecencyStore>>,
+    config: &Arc<Config>,
+) -> Response {
+```
+
+Also update `handle_one_for_testing` if it passes these types through.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Update lock calls per request type**
+
+In `handle_request`, change each lock call according to the read/write mapping:
+
+**Query** (read PM, read frecency):
+```rust
+Request::Query { text, modes } => {
+    let filter = match modes {
+        Some(m) => ProviderFilter::from_mode_strings(m),
+        None => ProviderFilter::all(),
+    };
+    let max = config.general.max_results;
+    let weight = config.providers.frecency_weight;
+
+    let pm_guard = pm.read().unwrap_or_else(|e| e.into_inner());
+    let frecency_guard = frecency.read().unwrap_or_else(|e| e.into_inner());
+    let results = pm_guard.search_with_frecency(
+        text, max, &filter, &frecency_guard, weight, None,
+    );
+
+    Response::Results {
+        items: results
+            .into_iter()
+            .map(|(item, score)| launch_item_to_result(item, score))
+            .collect(),
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Launch** (write frecency):
+```rust
+Request::Launch { item_id, provider: _ } => {
+    let mut frecency_guard = frecency.write().unwrap_or_else(|e| e.into_inner());
+    frecency_guard.record_launch(item_id);
+    Response::Ack
+}
+```
+
+**Providers** (read PM):
+```rust
+Request::Providers => {
+    let pm_guard = pm.read().unwrap_or_else(|e| e.into_inner());
+    let descs = pm_guard.available_providers();
+    Response::Providers {
+        list: descs.into_iter().map(descriptor_to_desc).collect(),
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Refresh** (write PM):
+```rust
+Request::Refresh { provider } => {
+    let mut pm_guard = pm.write().unwrap_or_else(|e| e.into_inner());
+    pm_guard.refresh_provider(provider);
+    Response::Ack
+}
+```
+
+**Toggle** (no locks):
+```rust
+Request::Toggle => Response::Ack,
+```
+
+**Submenu** (read PM):
+```rust
+Request::Submenu { plugin_id, data } => {
+    let pm_guard = pm.read().unwrap_or_else(|e| e.into_inner());
+    match pm_guard.query_submenu_actions(plugin_id, data, plugin_id) {
+        Some((_name, actions)) => Response::SubmenuItems {
+            items: actions
+                .into_iter()
+                .map(|item| launch_item_to_result(item, 0))
+                .collect(),
+        },
+        None => Response::Error {
+            message: format!("no submenu actions for plugin '{}'", plugin_id),
+        },
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**PluginAction** (read PM):
+```rust
+Request::PluginAction { command } => {
+    let pm_guard = pm.read().unwrap_or_else(|e| e.into_inner());
+    if pm_guard.execute_plugin_action(command) {
+        Response::Ack
+    } else {
+        Response::Error {
+            message: format!("no plugin handled action '{}'", command),
+        }
+    }
+}
+```

+
+### 4a. Fix Box::leak memory leak in converter
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Change resolve_currency_code return type**
+
+In `crates/owlry-plugin-converter/src/currency.rs`, change the `resolve_currency_code` function (line 88) from returning `Option<String>` to `Option<&'static str>`:
+
+```rust
+pub fn resolve_currency_code(alias: &str) -> Option<&'static str> {
+    let lower = alias.to_lowercase();
+
+    // Check aliases
+    for ca in CURRENCY_ALIASES {
+        if ca.aliases.contains(&lower.as_str()) {
+            return Some(ca.code);
+        }
+    }
+
+    // Check if it's a raw 3-letter ISO code we know about
+    let upper = alias.to_uppercase();
+    if upper.len() == 3 {
+        if upper == "EUR" {
+            return Some("EUR");
+        }
+        // Check if we have rates for it — return the matching alias code
+        if let Some(rates) = get_rates()
+            && rates.rates.contains_key(&upper)
+        {
+            // Find a matching CURRENCY_ALIASES entry for this code
+            for ca in CURRENCY_ALIASES {
+                if ca.code == upper {
+                    return Some(ca.code);
+                }
+            }
+            // Not in our aliases but valid in ECB rates — we can't return
+            // a &'static str for an arbitrary code, so skip
+        }
+    }
+
+    None
+}
+```
+
+Note: For ISO codes that are in ECB rates but NOT in `CURRENCY_ALIASES`, we lose the ability to resolve them. This is acceptable because:
+1. `CURRENCY_ALIASES` already covers the 15 most common currencies
+2. The alternative (Box::leak) was leaking memory on every keystroke
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Update is_currency_alias**
+
+No change needed — it already just calls `resolve_currency_code(alias).is_some()`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Update find_unit in units.rs**
+
+In `crates/owlry-plugin-converter/src/units.rs`, replace lines 90-101:
+
+```rust
+pub fn find_unit(alias: &str) -> Option<&'static str> {
+    let lower = alias.to_lowercase();
+    if let Some(&i) = ALIAS_MAP.get(&lower) {
+        return Some(UNITS[i].symbol);
+    }
+    // Check currency — resolve_currency_code now returns &'static str directly
+    currency::resolve_currency_code(&lower)
+}
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Update convert_currency in units.rs**
+
+In `crates/owlry-plugin-converter/src/units.rs`, update `convert_currency` (line 160). The `from_code` and `to_code` are now `&'static str`. HashMap lookups with `rates.rates.get(code)` work because `HashMap<String, f64>::get` accepts `&str` via `Borrow`:
+
+```rust
+fn convert_currency(value: f64, from: &str, to: &str) -> Option<ConversionResult> {
+    let rates = currency::get_rates()?;
+    let from_code = currency::resolve_currency_code(from)?;
+    let to_code = currency::resolve_currency_code(to)?;
+
+    let from_rate = if from_code == "EUR" {
+        1.0
+    } else {
+        *rates.rates.get(from_code)?
+    };
+    let to_rate = if to_code == "EUR" {
+        1.0
+    } else {
+        *rates.rates.get(to_code)?
+    };
+
+    let result = value / from_rate * to_rate;
+    Some(format_currency_result(result, to_code))
+}
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Update convert_currency_common in units.rs**
+
+In `crates/owlry-plugin-converter/src/units.rs`, update `convert_currency_common` (line 180). Change `from_code` handling:
+
+```rust
+fn convert_currency_common(value: f64, from: &str) -> Vec<ConversionResult> {
+    let rates = match currency::get_rates() {
+        Some(r) => r,
+        None => return vec![],
+    };
+    let from_code = match currency::resolve_currency_code(from) {
+        Some(c) => c,
+        None => return vec![],
+    };
+
+    let targets = COMMON_TARGETS.get(&Category::Currency).unwrap();
+    let from_rate = if from_code == "EUR" {
+        1.0
+    } else {
+        match rates.rates.get(from_code) {
+            Some(&r) => r,
+            None => return vec![],
+        }
+    };
+
+    targets
+        .iter()
+        .filter(|&&sym| sym != from_code)
+        .filter_map(|&sym| {
+            let to_rate = if sym == "EUR" {
+                1.0
+            } else {
+                *rates.rates.get(sym)?
+            };
+            let result = value / from_rate * to_rate;
+            Some(format_currency_result(result, sym))
+        })
+        .take(5)
+        .collect()
+}
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Update currency tests**
+
+In `crates/owlry-plugin-converter/src/currency.rs`, update test assertions to use `&str` instead of `String`:
+
+```rust
+#[test]
+fn test_resolve_currency_code_iso() {
+    assert_eq!(resolve_currency_code("usd"), Some("USD"));
+    assert_eq!(resolve_currency_code("EUR"), Some("EUR"));
+}
+
+#[test]
+fn test_resolve_currency_code_name() {
+    assert_eq!(resolve_currency_code("dollar"), Some("USD"));
+    assert_eq!(resolve_currency_code("euro"), Some("EUR"));
+    assert_eq!(resolve_currency_code("pounds"), Some("GBP"));
+}
+
+#[test]
+fn test_resolve_currency_code_symbol() {
+    assert_eq!(resolve_currency_code("$"), Some("USD"));
+    assert_eq!(resolve_currency_code("€"), Some("EUR"));
+    assert_eq!(resolve_currency_code("£"), Some("GBP"));
+}
+
+#[test]
+fn test_resolve_currency_unknown() {
+    assert_eq!(resolve_currency_code("xyz"), None);
+}
+```
+
+### 4b. Fix bookmarks temp file race condition
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Use PID-based temp filenames**
+
+In `crates/owlry-plugin-bookmarks/src/lib.rs`, replace the `read_firefox_bookmarks` method. Change lines 318-319 and the corresponding favicons temp path:
+
+```rust
+fn read_firefox_bookmarks(places_path: &PathBuf, items: &mut Vec<PluginItem>) {
+    let temp_dir = std::env::temp_dir();
+    let pid = std::process::id();
+    let temp_db = temp_dir.join(format!("owlry_places_{}.sqlite", pid));
+
+    // Copy database to temp location to avoid locking issues
+    if fs::copy(places_path, &temp_db).is_err() {
+        return;
+    }
+
+    // Also copy WAL file if it exists
+    let wal_path = places_path.with_extension("sqlite-wal");
+    if wal_path.exists() {
+        let temp_wal = temp_db.with_extension("sqlite-wal");
+        let _ = fs::copy(&wal_path, &temp_wal);
+    }
+
+    // Copy favicons database if available
+    let favicons_path = Self::firefox_favicons_path(places_path);
+    let temp_favicons = temp_dir.join(format!("owlry_favicons_{}.sqlite", pid));
+    if let Some(ref fp) = favicons_path {
+        let _ = fs::copy(fp, &temp_favicons);
+        let fav_wal = fp.with_extension("sqlite-wal");
+        if fav_wal.exists() {
+            let _ = fs::copy(&fav_wal, temp_favicons.with_extension("sqlite-wal"));
+        }
+    }
+
+    let cache_dir = Self::ensure_favicon_cache_dir();
+
+    // Read bookmarks from places.sqlite
+    let bookmarks = Self::fetch_firefox_bookmarks(&temp_db, &temp_favicons, cache_dir.as_ref());
+
+    // Clean up temp files
+    let _ = fs::remove_file(&temp_db);
+    let _ = fs::remove_file(temp_db.with_extension("sqlite-wal"));
+    let _ = fs::remove_file(&temp_favicons);
+    let _ = fs::remove_file(temp_favicons.with_extension("sqlite-wal"));
+
+    // ... rest of method unchanged (the for loop adding items)
+```
+
+### 4c. Fix bookmarks background refresh never updating state
+
+- [ ] **Step 8: Change BookmarksState to use Arc<Mutex<Vec<PluginItem>>>**
+
+In `crates/owlry-plugin-bookmarks/src/lib.rs`, add `use std::sync::Mutex;` to imports (it's already importing `Arc` and `AtomicBool`).
+
+Change the struct:
+
+```rust
+struct BookmarksState {
+    /// Cached bookmark items (shared with background thread)
+    items: Arc<Mutex<Vec<PluginItem>>>,
+    /// Flag to prevent concurrent background loads
+    loading: Arc<AtomicBool>,
+}
+
+impl BookmarksState {
+    fn new() -> Self {
+        Self {
+            items: Arc::new(Mutex::new(Vec::new())),
+            loading: Arc::new(AtomicBool::new(false)),
+        }
+    }
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 9: Update load_bookmarks to write through Arc<Mutex>**
+
+Update the `load_bookmarks` method:
+
+```rust
+fn load_bookmarks(&self) {
+    // Fast path: load from cache immediately if items are empty
+    {
+        let mut items = self.items.lock().unwrap_or_else(|e| e.into_inner());
+        if items.is_empty() {
+            *items = Self::load_cached_bookmarks();
+        }
+    }
+
+    // Don't start another background load if one is already running
+    if self.loading.swap(true, Ordering::SeqCst) {
+        return;
+    }
+
+    // Spawn background thread to refresh bookmarks
+    let loading = self.loading.clone();
+    let items_ref = self.items.clone();
+    thread::spawn(move || {
+        let mut new_items = Vec::new();
+
+        // Load Chrome/Chromium bookmarks (fast - just JSON parsing)
+        for path in Self::chromium_bookmark_paths() {
+            if path.exists() {
+                Self::read_chrome_bookmarks_static(&path, &mut new_items);
+            }
+        }
+
+        // Load Firefox bookmarks with favicons (synchronous with rusqlite)
+        for path in Self::firefox_places_paths() {
+            Self::read_firefox_bookmarks(&path, &mut new_items);
+        }
+
+        // Save to cache for next startup
+        Self::save_cached_bookmarks(&new_items);
+
+        // Update shared state so next refresh returns fresh data
+        if let Ok(mut items) = items_ref.lock() {
+            *items = new_items;
+        }
+
+        loading.store(false, Ordering::SeqCst);
+    });
+}
+```
+
+Note: `load_bookmarks` now takes `&self` instead of `&mut self`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 10: Update provider_refresh to read from Arc<Mutex>**
+
+Update the `provider_refresh` function:
+
+```rust
+extern "C" fn provider_refresh(handle: ProviderHandle) -> RVec<PluginItem> {
+    if handle.ptr.is_null() {
+        return RVec::new();
+    }
+
+    // SAFETY: We created this handle from Box<BookmarksState>
+    let state = unsafe { &*(handle.ptr as *const BookmarksState) };
+
+    // Load bookmarks
+    state.load_bookmarks();
+
+    // Return items
+    let items = state.items.lock().unwrap_or_else(|e| e.into_inner());
+    items.to_vec().into()
+}
+```
+
+Note: Uses `&*` (shared ref) instead of `&mut *` since `load_bookmarks` now takes `&self`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 11: Build and test plugins**
+
+Run: `cd /home/cnachtigall/ssd/git/archive/owlibou/owlry-plugins && cargo check && cargo test`
+Expected: all checks pass, all existing tests pass
+

+dirs = "5.0"
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Add config loading and update provider_init**
+
+In `crates/owlry-plugin-websearch/src/lib.rs`, add `use std::fs;` to imports. Add a config loading function and update `provider_init`:
+
+```rust
+fn load_engine_from_config() -> String {
+    let config_path = dirs::config_dir().map(|d| d.join("owlry").join("config.toml"));
+    if let Some(content) = config_path.and_then(|p| fs::read_to_string(p).ok())
+        && let Ok(toml) = content.parse::<toml::Table>()
+    {
+        if let Some(plugins) = toml.get("plugins").and_then(|v| v.as_table())
+            && let Some(websearch) = plugins.get("websearch").and_then(|v| v.as_table())
+            && let Some(engine) = websearch.get("engine").and_then(|v| v.as_str())
+        {
+            return engine.to_string();
+        }
+    }
+    DEFAULT_ENGINE.to_string()
+}
+
+extern "C" fn provider_init(_provider_id: RStr<'_>) -> ProviderHandle {
+    let engine = load_engine_from_config();
+    let state = Box::new(WebSearchState::with_engine(&engine));
+    ProviderHandle::from_box(state)
+}
+```
+
+Remove the TODO comment from the old `provider_init`.
+
+### 5c. Emoji plugin: build items once at init
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Move load_emojis to constructor**
+
+In `crates/owlry-plugin-emoji/src/lib.rs`, change `EmojiState::new` to call `load_emojis`:
+
+```rust
+impl EmojiState {
+    fn new() -> Self {
+        let mut state = Self { items: Vec::new() };
+        state.load_emojis();
+        state
+    }
+```
+
+Update `provider_refresh` to just return the cached items without reloading:
+
+```rust
+extern "C" fn provider_refresh(handle: ProviderHandle) -> RVec<PluginItem> {
+    if handle.ptr.is_null() {
+        return RVec::new();
+    }
+
+    // SAFETY: We created this handle from Box<EmojiState>
+    let state = unsafe { &*(handle.ptr as *const EmojiState) };
+
+    // Return cached items (loaded once at init)
+    state.items.to_vec().into()
+}
+```
+
+Note: Uses `&*` (shared ref) since we're only reading.
+
+### 5d. Calculator/Converter: safer shell commands
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Fix calculator command**
+
+In `crates/owlry-plugin-calculator/src/lib.rs`, in `evaluate_expression` (around line 139), replace:
+
+```rust
+// Old:
+format!("sh -c 'echo -n \"{}\" | wl-copy'", result_str)
+
+// New:
+format!("printf '%s' '{}' | wl-copy", result_str.replace('\'', "'\\''"))
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Fix converter command**
+
+In `crates/owlry-plugin-converter/src/lib.rs`, in `provider_query` (around line 95), replace:
+
+```rust
+// Old:
+format!("sh -c 'echo -n \"{}\" | wl-copy'", r.raw_value)
+
+// New:
+format!("printf '%s' '{}' | wl-copy", r.raw_value.replace('\'', "'\\''"))
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 8: Build and test all plugins**
+
+Run: `cd /home/cnachtigall/ssd/git/archive/owlibou/owlry-plugins && cargo check && cargo test`

+# Script Runtime Integration 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:** Enable the owlry-core daemon to discover and load Lua/Rune user plugins from `~/.config/owlry/plugins/`, with automatic hot-reload on file changes.
+
+**Architecture:** Fix ABI mismatches between core and runtimes, wire `LoadedRuntime` into `ProviderManager::new_with_config()`, add filesystem watcher for automatic plugin reload. Runtimes are external `.so` libraries loaded from `/usr/lib/owlry/runtimes/`.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Rust 1.90+, notify 7, notify-debouncer-mini 0.5, libloading 0.8
+
+**Repos:**
+- Core: `/home/cnachtigall/ssd/git/archive/owlibou/owlry`
+- Plugins (docs only): `/home/cnachtigall/ssd/git/archive/owlibou/owlry-plugins`

+
+## Task 1: Fix Lua RuntimeInfo ABI and vtable init signature
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `crates/owlry-lua/src/lib.rs:42-74,260-279,322-336`
+- Modify: `crates/owlry-rune/src/lib.rs:42-46,73-84,90-95,97-146,215-229`
+- Modify: `crates/owlry-core/src/plugins/runtime_loader.rs:55-68,84-146,267-277`
+
+### 1a. Shrink Lua RuntimeInfo to 2 fields
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Update RuntimeInfo struct and runtime_info() in owlry-lua**
+
+In `crates/owlry-lua/src/lib.rs`:
+
+Remove the `LUA_RUNTIME_API_VERSION` constant (line 43).
+
+Replace the `RuntimeInfo` struct (lines 67-74):
+
+```rust
+/// Runtime info returned by the runtime
+#[repr(C)]
+pub struct RuntimeInfo {
+    pub name: RString,
+    pub version: RString,
+}
+```
+
+Replace `runtime_info()` (lines 260-268):
+
+```rust
+extern "C" fn runtime_info() -> RuntimeInfo {
+    RuntimeInfo {
+        name: RString::from("Lua"),
+        version: RString::from(env!("CARGO_PKG_VERSION")),
+    }
+}
+```
+
+Remove unused constants `RUNTIME_ID` and `RUNTIME_DESCRIPTION` (lines 37, 40) if no longer referenced.
+
+### 1b. Add owlry_version parameter to vtable init
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Update ScriptRuntimeVTable in core**
+
+In `crates/owlry-core/src/plugins/runtime_loader.rs`, change the `init` field (line 59):
+
+```rust
+pub struct ScriptRuntimeVTable {
+    pub info: extern "C" fn() -> RuntimeInfo,
+    pub init: extern "C" fn(plugins_dir: RStr<'_>, owlry_version: RStr<'_>) -> RuntimeHandle,
+    pub providers: extern "C" fn(handle: RuntimeHandle) -> RVec<ScriptProviderInfo>,
+    pub refresh: extern "C" fn(handle: RuntimeHandle, provider_id: RStr<'_>) -> RVec<PluginItem>,
+    pub query: extern "C" fn(
+        handle: RuntimeHandle,
+        provider_id: RStr<'_>,
+        query: RStr<'_>,
+    ) -> RVec<PluginItem>,
+    pub drop: extern "C" fn(handle: RuntimeHandle),
+}
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Update LoadedRuntime to pass version**
+
+In `crates/owlry-core/src/plugins/runtime_loader.rs`, update `load_lua`, `load_rune`, and `load_from_path` to accept and pass the version:
+
+```rust
+impl LoadedRuntime {
+    pub fn load_lua(plugins_dir: &Path, owlry_version: &str) -> PluginResult<Self> {
+        Self::load_from_path(
+            "Lua",

+            b"owlry_lua_runtime_vtable",
+            plugins_dir,
+            owlry_version,
+        )
+    }
+
+    fn load_from_path(
+        name: &'static str,
+        library_path: &Path,
+        vtable_symbol: &[u8],
+        plugins_dir: &Path,
+        owlry_version: &str,
+    ) -> PluginResult<Self> {
+        // ... existing library loading code ...
+
+        // Initialize the runtime with version
+        let plugins_dir_str = plugins_dir.to_string_lossy();
+        let handle = (vtable.init)(
+            RStr::from_str(&plugins_dir_str),
+            RStr::from_str(owlry_version),
+        );
+
+        // ... rest unchanged ...
+    }
+}
+
+impl LoadedRuntime {
+    pub fn load_rune(plugins_dir: &Path, owlry_version: &str) -> PluginResult<Self> {
+        Self::load_from_path(
+            "Rune",
+            &PathBuf::from(SYSTEM_RUNTIMES_DIR).join("librune.so"),
+            b"owlry_rune_runtime_vtable",
+            plugins_dir,
+            owlry_version,
+        )
+    }
+}
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Update Lua runtime_init to accept version**
+
+In `crates/owlry-lua/src/lib.rs`, update `runtime_init` (line 270) and the vtable:
+
+```rust
+extern "C" fn runtime_init(plugins_dir: RStr<'_>, owlry_version: RStr<'_>) -> RuntimeHandle {
+    let plugins_dir = PathBuf::from(plugins_dir.as_str());
+    let mut state = Box::new(LuaRuntimeState::new(plugins_dir));
+
+    state.discover_and_load(owlry_version.as_str());
+
+    RuntimeHandle::from_box(state)
+}
+```
+
+Update the `LuaRuntimeVTable` struct `init` field to match:
+```rust
+pub init: extern "C" fn(plugins_dir: RStr<'_>, owlry_version: RStr<'_>) -> RuntimeHandle,
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Update Rune runtime_init to accept version**
+
+In `crates/owlry-rune/src/lib.rs`, update `runtime_init` (line 97) and the vtable:
+
+```rust
+extern "C" fn runtime_init(plugins_dir: RStr<'_>, owlry_version: RStr<'_>) -> RuntimeHandle {
+    let _ = env_logger::try_init();
+
+    let plugins_dir = PathBuf::from(plugins_dir.as_str());
+    let _version = owlry_version.as_str();
+    log::info!(
+        "Initializing Rune runtime with plugins from: {}",
+        plugins_dir.display()
+    );
+
+    // ... rest unchanged — Rune doesn't currently do version checking ...
+```
+
+Update the `RuneRuntimeVTable` struct `init` field:
+```rust
+pub init: extern "C" fn(plugins_dir: RStr<'_>, owlry_version: RStr<'_>) -> RuntimeHandle,
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Build all three crates**
+
+Run: `cargo check -p owlry-core && cargo check -p owlry-lua && cargo check -p owlry-rune`
+Expected: all pass
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Run tests**
+
+Run: `cargo test -p owlry-core && cargo test -p owlry-lua && cargo test -p owlry-rune`
+Expected: all pass
+
+- [ ] **Step 8: Commit**
+
+```bash

+## Task 2: Change default entry points to `main` and add alias
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `crates/owlry-lua/src/manifest.rs:52-54`
+- Modify: `crates/owlry-rune/src/manifest.rs:36-38,29`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Update Lua manifest default entry**
+
+In `crates/owlry-lua/src/manifest.rs`, change `default_entry()` (line 52):
+
+```rust
+fn default_entry() -> String {
+    "main.lua".to_string()
+}
+```
+
+Add `serde(alias)` to the `entry` field in `PluginInfo` (line 45):
+
+```rust
+    #[serde(default = "default_entry", alias = "entry_point")]
+    pub entry: String,
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Update Rune manifest default entry**
+
+In `crates/owlry-rune/src/manifest.rs`, change `default_entry()` (line 36):
+
+```rust
+fn default_entry() -> String {
+    "main.rn".to_string()
+}
+```
+
+Add `serde(alias)` to the `entry` field in `PluginInfo` (line 29):
+
+```rust
+    #[serde(default = "default_entry", alias = "entry_point")]
+    pub entry: String,
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Update tests that reference init.lua/init.rn**
+
+In `crates/owlry-lua/src/manifest.rs` test `test_parse_minimal_manifest`:
+```rust
+assert_eq!(manifest.plugin.entry, "main.lua");
+```
+
+In `crates/owlry-lua/src/loader.rs` test `create_test_plugin`:
+```rust
+fs::write(plugin_dir.join("main.lua"), "-- empty plugin").unwrap();

+## Task 3: Wire runtime loading into ProviderManager
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `crates/owlry-core/src/providers/mod.rs:106-119,173-224`
+- Modify: `crates/owlry-core/src/plugins/runtime_loader.rs:13` (remove allow dead_code)
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Add runtimes field to ProviderManager**
+
+In `crates/owlry-core/src/providers/mod.rs`, add import and field:
+
+```rust
+use crate::plugins::runtime_loader::LoadedRuntime;
+```
+
+Add to the `ProviderManager` struct (after `matcher` field):
+
+```rust
+pub struct ProviderManager {
+    providers: Vec<Box<dyn Provider>>,
+    static_native_providers: Vec<NativeProvider>,
+    dynamic_providers: Vec<NativeProvider>,
+    widget_providers: Vec<NativeProvider>,
+    matcher: SkimMatcherV2,
+    /// Loaded script runtimes (Lua, Rune) — must stay alive to keep Library handles
+    runtimes: Vec<LoadedRuntime>,
+    /// Type IDs of providers that came from script runtimes (for hot-reload removal)
+    runtime_type_ids: std::collections::HashSet<String>,
+}
+```
+
+Update `ProviderManager::new()` to initialize the new fields:
+
+```rust
+let mut manager = Self {
+    providers: core_providers,
+    static_native_providers: Vec::new(),
+    dynamic_providers: Vec::new(),
+    widget_providers: Vec::new(),
+    matcher: SkimMatcherV2::default(),
+    runtimes: Vec::new(),
+    runtime_type_ids: std::collections::HashSet::new(),
+};
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Add runtime loading to new_with_config**
+
+In `ProviderManager::new_with_config()`, after the native plugin loading block (after line 221) and before `Self::new(core_providers, native_providers)` (line 223), add runtime loading:
+
+```rust
+        // Load script runtimes (Lua, Rune) for user plugins
+        let mut runtime_providers: Vec<Box<dyn Provider>> = Vec::new();
+        let mut runtimes: Vec<LoadedRuntime> = Vec::new();
+        let mut runtime_type_ids = std::collections::HashSet::new();
+        let owlry_version = env!("CARGO_PKG_VERSION");
+
+        if let Some(plugins_dir) = crate::paths::plugins_dir() {
+            // Try Lua runtime
+            match LoadedRuntime::load_lua(&plugins_dir, owlry_version) {
+                Ok(rt) => {
+                    info!("Loaded Lua runtime with {} provider(s)", rt.providers().len());
+                    for provider in rt.create_providers() {
+                        let type_id = format!("{}", provider.provider_type());
+                        runtime_type_ids.insert(type_id);
+                        runtime_providers.push(provider);
+                    }
+                    runtimes.push(rt);
+                }
+                Err(e) => {
+                    info!("Lua runtime not available: {}", e);
+                }
+            }
+
+            // Try Rune runtime
+            match LoadedRuntime::load_rune(&plugins_dir, owlry_version) {
+                Ok(rt) => {
+                    info!("Loaded Rune runtime with {} provider(s)", rt.providers().len());
+                    for provider in rt.create_providers() {
+                        let type_id = format!("{}", provider.provider_type());
+                        runtime_type_ids.insert(type_id);
+                        runtime_providers.push(provider);
+                    }
+                    runtimes.push(rt);
+                }
+                Err(e) => {
+                    info!("Rune runtime not available: {}", e);
+                }
+            }
+        }
+
+        let mut manager = Self::new(core_providers, native_providers);
+        manager.runtimes = runtimes;
+        manager.runtime_type_ids = runtime_type_ids;
+
+        // Add runtime providers to the core providers list
+        for provider in runtime_providers {
+            info!("Registered runtime provider: {}", provider.name());
+            manager.providers.push(provider);
+        }
+
+        // Refresh runtime providers
+        for provider in &mut manager.providers {
+            // Only refresh the ones we just added (runtime providers)
+            // They need an initial refresh to populate items
+        }
+        manager.refresh_all();
+
+        manager
+```
+
+Note: This replaces the current `Self::new(core_providers, native_providers)` return. The `refresh_all()` at the end of `new()` will be called, plus we call it again — but that's fine since refresh is idempotent. Actually, `new()` already calls `refresh_all()`, so we should remove the duplicate. Let me adjust:
+
+The cleaner approach is to construct the manager via `Self::new()` which calls `refresh_all()`, then set the runtime fields and add providers, then call `refresh_all()` once more for the newly added runtime providers. Or better — add runtime providers to `core_providers` before calling `new()`:
+
+```rust
+        // Merge runtime providers into core providers
+        let mut all_core_providers = core_providers;
+        for provider in runtime_providers {
+            info!("Registered runtime provider: {}", provider.name());
+            all_core_providers.push(provider);
+        }
+
+        let mut manager = Self::new(all_core_providers, native_providers);
+        manager.runtimes = runtimes;
+        manager.runtime_type_ids = runtime_type_ids;
+        manager
+```
+
+This way `new()` handles the single `refresh_all()` call.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Remove allow(dead_code) from runtime_loader**
+
+In `crates/owlry-core/src/plugins/runtime_loader.rs`, remove `#![allow(dead_code)]` (line 13).
+
+Fix any resulting dead code warnings by removing unused `#[allow(dead_code)]` attributes on individual items that are now actually used, or adding targeted `#[allow(dead_code)]` only on truly unused items.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Build and test**
+
+Run: `cargo check -p owlry-core && cargo test -p owlry-core`
+Expected: all pass. May see info logs about runtimes loading (if installed on the build machine).
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Commit**
+
+```bash

+- [ ] **Step 3: Create the watcher module**
+
+Create `crates/owlry-core/src/plugins/watcher.rs`:
+
+```rust

+        }
+    });
+
+    info!("Plugin file watcher started for {}", plugins_dir.display());

+
+fn watch_loop(

+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Register the watcher module**
+
+In `crates/owlry-core/src/plugins/mod.rs`, add after line 28 (`pub mod runtime_loader;`):
+
+```rust
+pub mod watcher;
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Start watcher in Server::run**
+
+In `crates/owlry-core/src/server.rs`, in the `run()` method, before the accept loop, add:
+
+```rust
+pub fn run(&self) -> io::Result<()> {
+    // Start filesystem watcher for user plugin hot-reload
+    crate::plugins::watcher::start_watching(Arc::clone(&self.provider_manager));
+
+    info!("Server entering accept loop");
+    for stream in self.listener.incoming() {
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Build and test**
+
+Run: `cargo check -p owlry-core && cargo test -p owlry-core`
+Expected: all pass
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Manual smoke test**
+
+```bash
+# Start the daemon
+RUST_LOG=info cargo run -p owlry-core
+
+# In another terminal, create a test plugin
+mkdir -p ~/.config/owlry/plugins/hotreload-test
+cat > ~/.config/owlry/plugins/hotreload-test/plugin.toml << 'EOF'

+
+# Watch daemon logs — should see "Plugin file change detected, reloading runtimes..."
+# Clean up after testing

+
+## Task 5: Update plugin development documentation
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `/home/cnachtigall/ssd/git/archive/owlibou/owlry-plugins/docs/PLUGIN_DEVELOPMENT.md`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Update Lua plugin section**
+
+In `docs/PLUGIN_DEVELOPMENT.md`, update the Lua Quick Start section (around line 101):
+
+Change `entry_point = "init.lua"` to `entry = "main.lua"` in the manifest example.
+
+Replace the Lua code example with the `owlry.provider.register()` API:
+
+```lua
+owlry.provider.register({
+    name = "myluaprovider",
+    display_name = "My Lua Provider",
+    type_id = "mylua",
+    default_icon = "application-x-executable",
+    prefix = ":mylua",
+    refresh = function()
+        return {
+            { id = "item-1", name = "Hello from Lua", command = "echo 'Hello Lua!'" },
+        }
+    end,
+})
+```
+
+Remove `local owlry = require("owlry")` — the `owlry` table is pre-registered globally.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Update Rune plugin section**
+
+Update the Rune manifest example to use `entry = "main.rn"` instead of `entry_point = "main.rn"`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Update manifest reference**
+
+In the Lua Plugin API manifest section (around line 325), change `entry_point` to `entry` and add a note:
+
+```toml
+[plugin]
+id = "my-plugin"
+name = "My Plugin"
+version = "1.0.0"
+description = "Plugin description"
+entry = "main.lua"            # Default: main.lua (Lua) / main.rn (Rune)
+                               # Alias: entry_point also accepted
+owlry_version = ">=1.0.0"     # Optional version constraint
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Add hot-reload documentation**
+
+Add a new section after "Best Practices" (before "Publishing to AUR"):
+
+```markdown
+## Hot Reload
+
+User plugins in `~/.config/owlry/plugins/` are automatically reloaded when files change.
+The daemon watches the plugins directory and reloads all script runtimes when any file
+is created, modified, or deleted. No daemon restart is needed.
+
+**What triggers a reload:**
+- Creating a new plugin directory with `plugin.toml`
+- Editing a plugin's script files (`main.lua`, `main.rn`, etc.)
+- Editing a plugin's `plugin.toml`
+- Deleting a plugin directory
+
+**What does NOT trigger a reload:**
+- Changes to native plugins (`.so` files) — these require a daemon restart
+- Changes to runtime libraries in `/usr/lib/owlry/runtimes/` — daemon restart needed
+
+**Reload behavior:**
+- All script runtimes (Lua, Rune) are fully reloaded
+- Existing search results may briefly show stale data during reload
+- Errors in plugins are logged but don't affect other plugins
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Update Lua provider functions section**
+
+Replace the bare `refresh()`/`query()` examples (around line 390) with the register API:
+
+```lua
+-- Static provider: called once at startup and on reload
+owlry.provider.register({
+    name = "my-provider",
+    display_name = "My Provider",
+    prefix = ":my",
+    refresh = function()
+        return {
+            { id = "id1", name = "Item 1", command = "command1" },
+            { id = "id2", name = "Item 2", command = "command2" },
+        }
+    end,
+})
+
+-- Dynamic provider: called on each keystroke
+owlry.provider.register({
+    name = "my-search",
+    display_name = "My Search",
+    prefix = "?my",
+    query = function(q)
+        if q == "" then return {} end
+        return {
+            { id = "result", name = "Result for: " .. q, command = "echo " .. q },
+        }
+    end,
+})
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Commit**
+
+```bash
+cd /home/cnachtigall/ssd/git/archive/owlibou/owlry-plugins
+git add docs/PLUGIN_DEVELOPMENT.md
+git commit -m "docs: update plugin development guide for main.lua/rn defaults, register API, hot-reload"
+```

+
+## Task 6: Update hello-test plugin and clean up
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `~/.config/owlry/plugins/hello-test/plugin.toml`
+- Modify: `~/.config/owlry/plugins/hello-test/init.lua` → rename to `main.lua`
+
+This is a local-only task, not committed to either repo.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Update hello-test plugin**
+
+```bash
+# Rename entry point
+mv ~/.config/owlry/plugins/hello-test/init.lua ~/.config/owlry/plugins/hello-test/main.lua
+
+# Update manifest to use entry field
+cat > ~/.config/owlry/plugins/hello-test/plugin.toml << 'EOF'
+[plugin]
+id = "hello-test"
+name = "Hello Test"
+version = "0.1.0"
+description = "Minimal test plugin for verifying Lua runtime loading"
+EOF
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: End-to-end verification**
+
+```bash
+# Rebuild and restart daemon
+cargo build -p owlry-core
+RUST_LOG=info cargo run -p owlry-core
+
+# Expected log output should include:
+# - "Loaded Lua runtime with 1 provider(s)" (hello-test)
+# - "Loaded Rune runtime with 1 provider(s)" (hyprshutdown)
+# - "Plugin file watcher started for ..."
+```

+# Config Editor 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:** Built-in `:config` provider that lets users browse and modify settings, toggle providers, select themes/engines, and manage profiles — all from within the launcher.
+
+**Architecture:** The config editor is a `DynamicProvider` that interprets the query text as a navigation path. `:config providers` shows toggles, `:config theme` lists themes, `:config profile dev modes` shows a mode checklist. Actions (toggling, setting values) use the existing `PluginAction` IPC flow which keeps the window open and re-queries, giving instant visual feedback. Config changes are persisted to `config.toml` via `Config::save()`.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Rust, owlry-core providers, toml serialization
+
+---
+
+## Key Design Decision: Query-as-Navigation
+
+Instead of submenus, the `:config` prefix scopes the search bar as navigation:
+
+```
+:config                          → category list
+:config providers                → provider toggles
+:config theme                    → theme selection
+:config engine                   → search engine selection
+:config frecency                 → frecency toggle + weight
+:config profiles                 → profile list
+:config profile dev              → profile actions (edit modes, rename, delete)
+:config profile dev modes        → mode checklist for profile
+:config profile create myname    → create profile action
+:config fontsize 16              → set font size action
+:config width 900                → set width action
+```
+
+Actions use `CONFIG:*` commands dispatched via `execute_plugin_action`. Since this returns `false` for `should_close`, the window stays open and re-queries — the user sees updated state immediately.
+
+## File Map
+
+| File | Action | Responsibility |
+|------|--------|----------------|
+| `crates/owlry-core/src/providers/config_editor.rs` | Create | ConfigProvider: query parsing, result generation, action execution |

+    }
+}
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 9: Verify compilation and tests**
+
+Run: `cargo test -p owlry-core config_editor`
+
+Note: tests that call `execute_action` will try `config.save()` which writes to disk. The save will fail gracefully (warns) in test environment since there's no XDG config dir — the toggle/set still returns true. If tests fail due to save, add `#[allow(dead_code)]` or mock the save path. Alternatively, since `Config::save()` returns a Result and the provider logs but ignores errors, this should be fine.
+
+Expected: All tests pass.
+
+- [ ] **Step 10: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add crates/owlry-core/src/providers/config_editor.rs crates/owlry-core/src/providers/mod.rs
+git commit -m "feat(core): add built-in config editor provider
+
+Interactive :config prefix for browsing and modifying settings.
+Supports provider toggles, theme/engine selection, numeric input,
+and profile CRUD. Uses CONFIG:* action commands that persist to
+config.toml via Config::save()."
+```

+
+### Task 2: Wire ConfigProvider into ProviderManager
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `crates/owlry-core/src/providers/mod.rs`
+- Modify: `crates/owlry-core/src/config/mod.rs` (if ProfileConfig is not public)
+
+The ConfigProvider needs to be:
+1. Registered as a built-in dynamic provider
+2. Its `execute_action` called from `execute_plugin_action`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Make Config wrap in Arc<RwLock> for shared ownership**
+
+The ConfigProvider needs mutable access to config. Currently `new_with_config` takes `&Config`. Change the daemon startup to wrap Config in `Arc<RwLock<Config>>` and pass it to both the ConfigProvider and the server.
+
+In `crates/owlry-core/src/providers/mod.rs`, in `new_with_config()`, after creating the config provider:
+
+```rust
+        // Config editor — needs shared mutable access to config
+        let config_arc = std::sync::Arc::new(std::sync::RwLock::new(config.clone()));
+        builtin_dynamic.push(Box::new(config_editor::ConfigProvider::new(config_arc)));
+        info!("Registered built-in config editor provider");
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Extend execute_plugin_action for built-in providers**
+
+In `execute_plugin_action`, after the existing native provider check, add:
+
+```rust
+        // Check built-in config editor
+        if command.starts_with("CONFIG:") {
+            for provider in &self.builtin_dynamic {
+                if let ProviderType::Plugin(ref id) = provider.provider_type() {
+                    if id == "config" {
+                        // Downcast to ConfigProvider to call execute_action
+                        // Since we can't downcast trait objects easily, add an
+                        // execute_action method to DynamicProvider with default impl
+                        return provider.execute_action(command);
+                    }
+                }
+            }
+        }
+```
+
+For this to work, add `execute_action` to the `DynamicProvider` trait with a default no-op:
+
+```rust
+pub(crate) trait DynamicProvider: Send + Sync {
+    fn name(&self) -> &str;
+    fn provider_type(&self) -> ProviderType;
+    fn query(&self, query: &str) -> Vec<LaunchItem>;
+    fn priority(&self) -> u32;
+
+    /// Handle a plugin action command. Returns true if handled.
+    fn execute_action(&self, _command: &str) -> bool {
+        false
+    }
+}
+```
+
+The ConfigProvider already has `execute_action` as an inherent method — just also implement it via the trait.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Ensure ProfileConfig is accessible**
+
+Check if `crate::config::ProfileConfig` is public. If not, add `pub` to its definition in `config/mod.rs`. The ConfigProvider needs to construct it for profile creation.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run tests**
+
+Run: `cargo test -p owlry-core --lib`
+
+Expected: All tests pass (128+ existing + new config editor tests).
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add crates/owlry-core/src/providers/mod.rs crates/owlry-core/src/config/mod.rs
+git commit -m "feat(core): wire config editor into ProviderManager
+
+Register ConfigProvider as built-in dynamic provider. Extend
+execute_plugin_action to dispatch CONFIG:* commands. Add
+execute_action method to DynamicProvider trait."
+```
+
+---
+
+### Task 3: Update CLAUDE.md and README with config editor docs
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `README.md`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Add config editor section to README**
+
+In the README, in the Usage section (after Keyboard Shortcuts), add:
+
+```markdown
+### Settings Editor
+
+Type `:config` to browse and modify settings without editing files:
+
+| Command | What it does |
+|---------|-------------|
+| `:config` | Show all setting categories |
+| `:config providers` | Toggle providers on/off |
+| `:config theme` | Select color theme |
+| `:config engine` | Select web search engine |
+| `:config frecency` | Toggle frecency, set weight |
+| `:config fontsize 16` | Set font size (restart to apply) |
+| `:config profiles` | List profiles |
+| `:config profile create dev` | Create a new profile |
+| `:config profile dev modes` | Edit which modes a profile includes |
+
+Changes are saved to `config.toml` immediately. Some settings (theme, frecency) take effect on the next search. Others (font size, dimensions) require a restart.
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add README.md
+git commit -m "docs: add config editor usage to README"
+```
+
+---
+
+## Execution Notes
+
+### Task dependency order
+
+Task 1 is the bulk of the implementation. Task 2 wires it in. Task 3 is docs.
+
+**Order:** 1 → 2 → 3
+
+### What's NOT in this plan
+
+- **Hot-apply for theme** — would need the UI to re-trigger CSS loading after a CONFIG action. Can be added later by emitting a signal from the daemon or having the UI check a flag after `execute_plugin_action` returns.
+- **Profile rename via text input** — the current design supports `:config profile create <name>` but rename would need a two-step flow. Can be added later.
+- **Config file watching** — if the user edits `config.toml` externally, the ConfigProvider's cached `Arc<RwLock<Config>>` becomes stale. A file watcher could reload it. Deferred.

+# Performance Optimization 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:** Fix an unsound `unsafe` block, eliminate per-keystroke clone avalanches in the search path, and apply targeted I/O and algorithmic optimizations across both the `owlry` and `owlry-plugins` repos.
+
+**Architecture:** Nine tasks across two repos. Phase 1 removes unsound `unsafe` code. Phase 2 restructures the hot search path to score by reference and clone only the final top-N results, combined with partial-sort (`select_nth_unstable_by`) for O(n) selection. Phase 3 removes unnecessary blocking I/O and simplifies GTK list updates. Phase 4 applies minor algorithmic fixes. Phase 5 covers plugin-repo fixes (separate repo, separate branch).
+
+**Tech Stack:** Rust 1.90+, GTK4 4.12+, owlry-core, owlry-plugins

+
+## Phase 1: Safety & Correctness
+
+### Task 1: Remove unsound `unsafe` in NativeProvider::items()
+
+The `items()` implementation creates a raw pointer from an `RwLockReadGuard`, then drops the guard while returning a slice backed by that pointer. This is UB waiting to happen. The inner `RwLock` is unnecessary — `refresh()` takes `&mut self` (exclusive access guaranteed by the outer `Arc<RwLock<ProviderManager>>`), and `items()` takes `&self`. Replace the `RwLock<Vec<LaunchItem>>` with a plain `Vec<LaunchItem>`.
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `crates/owlry-core/src/providers/native_provider.rs`
+- Test: `crates/owlry-core/src/providers/native_provider.rs` (existing tests)
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Run existing tests to establish baseline**
+
+Run: `cargo test -p owlry-core`
+
+Expected: All tests PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Replace `RwLock<Vec<LaunchItem>>` with `Vec<LaunchItem>` in the struct**
+
+In `crates/owlry-core/src/providers/native_provider.rs`, change the struct definition:
+
+```rust
+pub struct NativeProvider {
+    plugin: Arc<NativePlugin>,
+    info: ProviderInfo,
+    handle: ProviderHandle,
+    items: Vec<LaunchItem>,
+}
+```
+
+Update `new()` to initialize without RwLock:
+
+```rust
+Self {
+    plugin,
+    info,
+    handle,
+    items: Vec::new(),
+}
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Remove the `unsafe` block from `items()` — return `&self.items` directly**
+
+Replace the entire `Provider::items()` impl:
+
+```rust
+fn items(&self) -> &[LaunchItem] {
+    &self.items
+}
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Update `refresh()` to write directly to `self.items`**
+
+Replace the RwLock write in `refresh()`:
+
+```rust
+// Was: *self.items.write().unwrap() = items;
+self.items = items;
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Update `query()` to read from `self.items` directly**
+
+In the `query()` method, replace the RwLock read:
+
+```rust
+// Was: return self.items.read().unwrap().clone();
+return self.items.clone();
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Remove `use std::sync::RwLock;` (no longer needed, `Arc` still used for plugin)**
+
+Remove `RwLock` from the `use std::sync::{Arc, RwLock};` import:
+
+```rust
+use std::sync::Arc;
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Run tests and check**
+
+Run: `cargo test -p owlry-core && cargo check -p owlry-core`
+
+Expected: All tests PASS, no warnings about unused imports.
+
+- [ ] **Step 8: Compile full workspace to verify no downstream breakage**
+
+Run: `cargo check --workspace`
+
+Expected: Clean compilation.
+
+- [ ] **Step 9: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add crates/owlry-core/src/providers/native_provider.rs
+git commit -m "fix(native-provider): remove unsound unsafe in items()
+
+Replace RwLock<Vec<LaunchItem>> with plain Vec. The inner RwLock
+was unnecessary — refresh() takes &mut self (exclusive access
+guaranteed by the outer Arc<RwLock<ProviderManager>>). The unsafe
+block in items() dropped the RwLockReadGuard while returning a
+slice backed by the raw pointer, creating a dangling reference."
+```
+
+---
+
+## Phase 2: Hot Path Optimization
+
+### Task 2: Eliminate clone avalanche in search_with_frecency
+
+Currently every matching `LaunchItem` (5 Strings + Vec) is cloned during scoring, then the Vec is sorted and truncated to ~15 results — discarding 95%+ of clones. Refactor to score items by reference, partial-sort the lightweight `(&LaunchItem, i64)` tuples with `select_nth_unstable_by` (O(n) average), and clone only the top-N survivors.
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `crates/owlry-core/src/providers/mod.rs` — `search_with_frecency` method (~lines 652-875)
+- Test: existing tests in `crates/owlry-core/src/providers/mod.rs`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Run existing search tests to establish baseline**
+
+Run: `cargo test -p owlry-core search`
+
+Expected: All search-related tests PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Refactor `score_item` closure to return `Option<i64>` instead of `Option<(LaunchItem, i64)>`**
+
+In `search_with_frecency`, change the closure at ~line 780 from:
+
+```rust
+let score_item = |item: &LaunchItem| -> Option<(LaunchItem, i64)> {
+```
+
+To:
+
+```rust
+let score_item = |item: &LaunchItem| -> Option<i64> {
+```
+
+And change the return from:
+
+```rust
+base_score.map(|s| {
+    let frecency_score = frecency.get_score_at(&item.id, now);
+    let frecency_boost = (frecency_score * frecency_weight * 10.0) as i64;
+    let exact_match_boost = if item.name.eq_ignore_ascii_case(query) {
+        match &item.provider {
+            ProviderType::Application => 50_000,
+            _ => 30_000,
+        }
+    } else {
+        0
+    };
+    (item.clone(), s + frecency_boost + exact_match_boost)
+})
+```
+
+To:
+
+```rust
+base_score.map(|s| {
+    let frecency_score = frecency.get_score_at(&item.id, now);
+    let frecency_boost = (frecency_score * frecency_weight * 10.0) as i64;
+    let exact_match_boost = if item.name.eq_ignore_ascii_case(query) {
+        match &item.provider {
+            ProviderType::Application => 50_000,
+            _ => 30_000,
+        }
+    } else {
+        0
+    };
+    s + frecency_boost + exact_match_boost
+})
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Replace the static-item scoring loops to collect references**
+
+Replace the scoring loops at ~lines 831-853:
+
+```rust
+// Was:

+// Score static items by reference (no cloning)
+let mut scored_refs: Vec<(&LaunchItem, i64)> = Vec::new();
+
+for provider in &self.providers {
+    if !filter.is_active(provider.provider_type()) {
+        continue;
+    }
+    for item in provider.items() {
+        if let Some(score) = score_item(item) {
+            scored_refs.push((item, score));
+        }
+    }

+        }
+    }
+}
+
+// Partial sort: O(n) average to find top max_results, then O(k log k) to order them
+if scored_refs.len() > max_results {
+    scored_refs.select_nth_unstable_by(max_results, |a, b| b.1.cmp(&a.1));
+    scored_refs.truncate(max_results);

+scored_refs.sort_by(|a, b| b.1.cmp(&a.1));
+
+// Clone only the survivors
+results.extend(scored_refs.into_iter().map(|(item, score)| (item.clone(), score)));
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Add final merge-sort for dynamic + static results**
+
+After extending results, add the final sort (dynamic results from earlier in the function + the newly added static results need unified ordering):
+
+```rust
+// Final sort merges dynamic results with static top-N
+results.sort_by(|a, b| b.1.cmp(&a.1));
+results.truncate(max_results);
+```
+
+This replaces the existing `results.sort_by(...)` and `results.truncate(...)` lines at ~854-855 — the logic is the same, just confirming it's still present after the refactor.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Optimize the empty-query path to score by reference too**
+
+Replace the empty-query block at ~lines 739-776. Change:
+
+```rust
+let core_items = self
+    .providers

+        (item, boosted)
+    })
+    .collect();
+
+results.extend(items);
+results.sort_by(|a, b| b.1.cmp(&a.1));

+    })
+    .map(|item| {
+        let frecency_score = frecency.get_score_at(&item.id, now);
+        let boosted = (frecency_score * frecency_weight * 100.0) as i64;
+        (item, boosted)
+    })
+    .collect();
+
+if scored_refs.len() > max_results {
+    scored_refs.select_nth_unstable_by(max_results, |a, b| b.1.cmp(&a.1));

+## Phase 3: I/O Optimization
+
+### Task 3: Remove frecency auto-save on every launch
+
+`record_launch` calls `self.save()` synchronously — serializing JSON and writing to disk on every item launch. The `Drop` impl already saves on shutdown. Mark dirty and let the caller (or shutdown) handle persistence.
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `crates/owlry-core/src/data/frecency.rs:98-123`
+- Test: `crates/owlry-core/src/data/frecency.rs` (existing + new)
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write test verifying record_launch sets dirty without saving**
+
+Add to the `#[cfg(test)]` block in `frecency.rs`:
+
+```rust
+#[test]
+fn record_launch_sets_dirty_without_saving() {
+    let mut store = FrecencyStore {
+        data: FrecencyData::default(),
+        path: PathBuf::from("/dev/null"),
+        dirty: false,
+    };
+
+    store.record_launch("test-item");
+
+    assert!(store.dirty, "record_launch should set dirty flag");
+    assert_eq!(store.data.entries["test-item"].launch_count, 1);
+}
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run test to verify it fails (current code auto-saves, clearing dirty)**
+
+Run: `cargo test -p owlry-core record_launch_sets_dirty`
+
+Expected: FAIL — `store.dirty` is `false` because `save()` clears it.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Remove the auto-save from `record_launch`**
+
+In `crates/owlry-core/src/data/frecency.rs`, remove lines 119-122 from `record_launch`:
+
+```rust
+// Remove this block:
+// Auto-save after recording
+if let Err(e) = self.save() {
+    warn!("Failed to save frecency data: {}", e);
+}
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run test to verify it passes**
+
+Run: `cargo test -p owlry-core record_launch_sets_dirty`
+
+Expected: PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Run all frecency tests**
+
+Run: `cargo test -p owlry-core frecency`
+
+Expected: All PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add crates/owlry-core/src/data/frecency.rs
+git commit -m "perf(frecency): remove blocking auto-save on every launch
+
+record_launch no longer calls save() synchronously. The dirty flag
+is set and the Drop impl flushes on shutdown. Removes a JSON
+serialize + fs::write from the hot launch path."
+```

+
+### Task 4: GTK ListBox — replace child-removal loop with `remove_all()`
+
+The current code removes children one-by-one in a `while` loop, triggering layout invalidation per removal. GTK 4.12 provides `remove_all()` which batches the operation.
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `crates/owlry/src/ui/main_window.rs` — two locations (~lines 705-707 and ~742-744)
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Replace daemon-mode child removal loop**
+
+In the `spawn_future_local` async block (~line 705), replace:
+
+```rust
+while let Some(child) = results_list_cb.first_child() {
+    results_list_cb.remove(&child);
+}
+```
+
+With:
+
+```rust
+results_list_cb.remove_all();
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Replace local-mode (dmenu) child removal loop**
+
+In the synchronous (local/dmenu) branch (~line 742), replace:
+
+```rust
+while let Some(child) = results_list.first_child() {
+    results_list.remove(&child);
+}
+```
+
+With:
+
+```rust
+results_list.remove_all();
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Verify compilation**
+
+Run: `cargo check -p owlry`
+
+Expected: Clean compilation. `remove_all()` is available in gtk4 4.12+.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add crates/owlry/src/ui/main_window.rs
+git commit -m "perf(ui): use ListBox::remove_all() instead of per-child loop
+
+Replaces two while-loop child removal patterns with the batched
+remove_all() method available since GTK 4.12. Avoids per-removal
+layout invalidation."
+```
+

+
+## Phase 4: Minor Optimizations
+
+### Task 5: Single-pass double-space cleanup in application.rs
+
+The `clean_desktop_exec_field` function uses a `while contains("  ") { replace("  ", " ") }` loop — O(n²) on pathological input with repeated allocations. Replace with a single-pass char iterator.
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `crates/owlry-core/src/providers/application.rs:60-64`
+- Test: existing tests in `crates/owlry-core/src/providers/application.rs`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Add test for pathological input**
+
+Add to the existing `#[cfg(test)]` block:
+
+```rust
+#[test]
+fn test_clean_desktop_exec_collapses_spaces() {
+    assert_eq!(clean_desktop_exec_field("app   --flag    arg"), "app --flag arg");
+    // Pathological: many consecutive spaces
+    let input = format!("app{}arg", " ".repeat(100));
+    assert_eq!(clean_desktop_exec_field(&input), "app arg");
+}
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run test to verify it passes with current implementation**
+
+Run: `cargo test -p owlry-core clean_desktop_exec`
+
+Expected: All PASS (current implementation works, just inefficiently).
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Replace the while-loop with a single-pass approach**
+
+Replace lines 60-64 of `application.rs`:
+
+```rust
+// Was:
+// let mut cleaned = result.trim().to_string();
+// while cleaned.contains("  ") {
+//     cleaned = cleaned.replace("  ", " ");
+// }
+// cleaned
+
+let trimmed = result.trim();
+let mut cleaned = String::with_capacity(trimmed.len());
+let mut prev_space = false;
+for c in trimmed.chars() {
+    if c == ' ' {
+        if !prev_space {
+            cleaned.push(' ');
+        }
+        prev_space = true;
+    } else {
+        cleaned.push(c);
+        prev_space = false;
+    }
+}
+cleaned
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run all application tests**
+
+Run: `cargo test -p owlry-core clean_desktop_exec`
+
+Expected: All PASS including the new pathological test.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add crates/owlry-core/src/providers/application.rs
+git commit -m "perf(application): single-pass double-space collapse

+
+### Task 6: Consolidate parse_query prefix matching into single pass
+
+`parse_query` maintains four separate arrays (core_prefixes, plugin_prefixes, partial_core, partial_plugin) with duplicated prefix strings, iterating them in sequence. Merge full and partial matching into a single array and a single loop per category.
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `crates/owlry-core/src/filter.rs:202-406`
+- Test: existing tests in `crates/owlry-core/src/filter.rs`

+- [ ] **Step 1: Run existing filter tests to establish baseline**
+
+Run: `cargo test -p owlry-core filter`
+
+Expected: All PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Define a unified prefix entry struct and static arrays**
+
+At the top of `parse_query`, replace the four separate arrays with two unified arrays:

+that checks both full and partial match. Halves the data and
+eliminates the duplicate iteration."
+```
+
+---
+
+## Phase 5: Plugin Repo Fixes
+
+> **These tasks target `somegit.dev/Owlibou/owlry-plugins` — a separate repository.**
+> Clone and branch separately. They can be done independently of Phases 1-4.
+
+### Task 7: Filesearch — add minimum query length threshold
+
+The filesearch plugin spawns an `fd` subprocess on every keystroke (after debounce). For short queries this is wasteful and returns too many results. Add a 3-character minimum before spawning.
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `owlry-plugin-filesearch/src/lib.rs` — `query()` method
+- Test: existing or new tests
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Add early return in the `query` method**
+
+At the top of the `query` function (which receives the search text), add:
+
+```rust
+fn query(&self, query: &str) -> Vec<PluginItem> {
+    // Don't spawn fd for very short queries — too many results, too slow
+    if query.len() < 3 {
+        return Vec::new();
+    }
+    // ... existing code ...
+}
+```
+
+Find the correct method — it may be the `ProviderVTable::provider_query` path or a helper like `search_with_fd`. The guard should be placed at the earliest point before `Command::new("fd")` is invoked.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Verify compilation and test**
+
+Run: `cargo check -p owlry-plugin-filesearch`
+
+Expected: Clean compilation.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add owlry-plugin-filesearch/src/lib.rs
+git commit -m "perf(filesearch): skip fd subprocess for queries under 3 chars
+
+Avoids spawning a subprocess per keystroke when the user has
+only typed 1-2 characters. Short queries return too many results
+from fd and block the daemon's read lock."
+```
+
+---
+
+### Task 8: Emoji plugin — avoid double clone on refresh
+
+The emoji provider's `refresh()` returns `state.items.to_vec().into()` which clones all ~400 `PluginItem` structs. The core's `NativeProvider::refresh()` then converts each to `LaunchItem` (another set of allocations). If the plugin API supports transferring ownership instead of cloning, use that. Otherwise, this is an API-level limitation.
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `owlry-plugin-emoji/src/lib.rs` — `provider_refresh` function
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Check if items can be drained instead of cloned**
+
+If `state.items` is a `Vec<PluginItem>` that gets rebuilt on each refresh anyway, drain it:
+
+```rust
+// Was: state.items.to_vec().into()
+// If items are rebuilt each refresh:
+std::mem::take(&mut state.items).into()
+```
+
+If `state.items` must be preserved between refreshes (because refresh is called multiple times and the items don't change), then the clone is necessary and this task is a no-op. Check the `refresh()` implementation to determine which case applies.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Verify and commit if applicable**
+
+Run: `cargo check -p owlry-plugin-emoji`
+
+---
+
+### Task 9: Clipboard plugin — add caching for `cliphist list`
+
+The clipboard provider calls `cliphist list` synchronously on every refresh. If the daemon's periodic refresh timer triggers this, it blocks the RwLock. Add a simple staleness check — only re-run `cliphist list` if more than N seconds have elapsed since the last successful fetch.
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `owlry-plugin-clipboard/src/lib.rs`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Add a `last_refresh` timestamp to the provider state**
+
+```rust
+use std::time::Instant;
+
+struct ClipboardState {
+    items: Vec<PluginItem>,
+    last_refresh: Option<Instant>,
+}
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Guard the subprocess call with a staleness check**
+
+In the `refresh()` path:
+
+```rust
+const REFRESH_INTERVAL: Duration = Duration::from_secs(5);
+
+if let Some(last) = state.last_refresh {
+    if last.elapsed() < REFRESH_INTERVAL {
+        return state.items.clone().into();
+    }
+}
+
+// ... existing cliphist list call ...
+
+state.last_refresh = Some(Instant::now());
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Verify and commit**
+
+Run: `cargo check -p owlry-plugin-clipboard`
+
+```bash
+git commit -m "perf(clipboard): cache cliphist results for 5 seconds
+
+Avoids re-spawning cliphist list on every refresh cycle when the
+previous results are still fresh."
+```
+

+# Codebase Hardening: owlry + owlry-plugins
+
+**Date:** 2026-03-26
+**Scope:** 15 fixes across 2 repositories, organized in 5 severity tiers
+**Approach:** Severity-ordered tiers, one commit per tier, core repo first
+
+---
+
+## Tier 1: Critical / Soundness (owlry core)
+
+### 1a. Replace `static mut HOST_API` with `OnceLock`
+
+**File:** `crates/owlry-plugin-api/src/lib.rs`
+**Problem:** `static mut` is unsound — concurrent reads during initialization are UB.
+**Fix:** Replace with `std::sync::OnceLock<&'static HostAPI>`. `init_host_api()` calls `HOST_API.set(api)`, `host_api()` calls `HOST_API.get().copied()`. No public API changes — convenience wrappers (`notify()`, `log_info()`, etc.) keep working. No ABI impact since `HOST_API` is internal.
+
+### 1b. Add IPC message size limit
+
+**File:** `crates/owlry-core/src/server.rs`
+**Problem:** `BufReader::lines()` reads unbounded lines. A malicious/buggy client can OOM the daemon.
+**Fix:** Replace the `lines()` iterator with a manual `read_line()` loop enforcing a 1 MB max. Lines exceeding the limit get an error response and the connection is dropped. Constant: `const MAX_REQUEST_SIZE: usize = 1_048_576`.
+
+### 1c. Handle mutex poisoning gracefully
+
+**File:** `crates/owlry-core/src/server.rs`
+**Problem:** All `lock().unwrap()` calls panic on poisoned mutex, crashing handler threads.
+**Fix:** Replace with `lock().unwrap_or_else(|e| e.into_inner())`. The ProviderManager and FrecencyStore don't have invariants that require abort-on-poison.
+
+---
+
+## Tier 2: Security (owlry core)
+
+### 2a. Set socket permissions after bind
+
+**File:** `crates/owlry-core/src/server.rs`
+**Problem:** Socket inherits process umask, may be readable by other local users.
+**Fix:** After `UnixListener::bind()`, call `std::fs::set_permissions(socket_path, Permissions::from_mode(0o600))`. Uses `std::os::unix::fs::PermissionsExt`.
+
+### 2b. Log signal handler failure
+
+**File:** `crates/owlry-core/src/main.rs`
+**Problem:** `ctrlc::set_handler(...).ok()` silently swallows errors. Failed handler means no socket cleanup on SIGINT.
+**Fix:** Replace `.ok()` with `if let Err(e) = ... { warn!("...") }`.
+
+### 2c. Add client read timeout
+
+**File:** `crates/owlry-core/src/server.rs`
+**Problem:** A client that connects but never sends data blocks a thread forever.
+**Fix:** Set `stream.set_read_timeout(Some(Duration::from_secs(30)))` on accepted connections before entering the read loop.
+
+---
+
+## Tier 3: Robustness / Quality (owlry core)
+
+### 3a. Log malformed JSON requests
+
+**File:** `crates/owlry-core/src/server.rs`
+**Problem:** JSON parse errors only sent as response to client, not visible in daemon logs.
+**Fix:** Add `warn!("Malformed request from client: {}", e)` before sending the error response.
+
+### 3b. Replace Mutex with RwLock for concurrent reads
+
+**File:** `crates/owlry-core/src/server.rs`
+**Problem:** `Mutex<ProviderManager>` blocks all concurrent queries even though they're read-only.
+**Fix:** Replace both `Arc<Mutex<ProviderManager>>` and `Arc<Mutex<FrecencyStore>>` with `Arc<RwLock<...>>`.
+
+Lock usage per request type:
+
+| Request | ProviderManager | FrecencyStore |
+|---------|----------------|---------------|
+| Query | `read()` | `read()` |
+| Launch | — | `write()` |
+| Providers | `read()` | — |
+| Refresh | `write()` | — |
+| Toggle | — | — |
+| Submenu | `read()` | — |
+| PluginAction | `read()` | — |
+
+Poisoning recovery: `.unwrap_or_else(|e| e.into_inner())` applies to RwLock the same way.
+
+---
+
+## Tier 4: Critical fixes (owlry-plugins)
+
+### 4a. Fix `Box::leak` memory leak in converter
+
+**File:** `owlry-plugins/crates/owlry-plugin-converter/src/units.rs`
+**Problem:** `Box::leak(code.into_boxed_str())` leaks memory on every keystroke for currency queries.
+**Fix:** Currency codes are already `&'static str` in `CURRENCY_ALIASES`. Change `resolve_currency_code()` return type from `Option<String>` to `Option<&'static str>` so it returns the static str directly. This eliminates the `Box::leak`. Callers in `units.rs` (`find_unit`, `convert_currency`, `convert_currency_common`) and `currency.rs` (`is_currency_alias`) must be updated to work with `&'static str` — mostly removing `.to_string()` calls or adding them at the boundary where `String` is needed (e.g., HashMap lookups that need owned keys).
+
+### 4b. Fix bookmarks temp file race condition
+
+**File:** `owlry-plugins/crates/owlry-plugin-bookmarks/src/lib.rs`
+**Problem:** Predictable `/tmp/owlry_places_temp.sqlite` path — concurrent instances clobber, symlink attacks possible.
+**Fix:** Append PID and monotonic counter to filename: `owlry_places_{pid}.sqlite`. Uses `std::process::id()`. Each profile copy gets its own name via index. Cleanup on exit remains the same.
+
+### 4c. Fix bookmarks background refresh never updating state
+
+**File:** `owlry-plugins/crates/owlry-plugin-bookmarks/src/lib.rs`
+**Problem:** Background thread loads items and saves cache but never writes back to `self.items`. Current session keeps stale data.
+**Fix:** Replace `items: Vec<PluginItem>` with `items: Arc<Mutex<Vec<PluginItem>>>`. Background thread writes to the shared vec after completing. `provider_refresh` reads from it. The `loading` AtomicBool already prevents concurrent loads.
+
+---
+
+## Tier 5: Quality fixes (owlry-plugins)
+
+### 5a. SSH plugin: read terminal from config
+
+**File:** `owlry-plugins/crates/owlry-plugin-ssh/src/lib.rs`
+**Problem:** Hardcoded `kitty` as terminal fallback. Core already detects terminals.
+**Fix:** Read `terminal` from `[plugins.ssh]` in `~/.config/owlry/config.toml`. Fall back to `$TERMINAL` env var, then `xdg-terminal-exec`. Same config pattern as weather/pomodoro plugins.
+
+### 5b. WebSearch plugin: read engine from config
+
+**File:** `owlry-plugins/crates/owlry-plugin-websearch/src/lib.rs`
+**Problem:** TODO comment for config reading, never implemented. Engine is always duckduckgo.
+**Fix:** Read `engine` from `[plugins.websearch]` in config.toml. Supports named engines (`google`, `duckduckgo`, etc.) or custom URL templates with `{query}`. Falls back to duckduckgo.
+
+### 5c. Emoji plugin: build items once at init
+
+**File:** `owlry-plugins/crates/owlry-plugin-emoji/src/lib.rs`
+**Problem:** `load_emojis()` clears and rebuilds ~370 items on every `refresh()` call.
+**Fix:** Call `load_emojis()` in `EmojiState::new()`. `provider_refresh` returns `self.items.clone()` without rebuilding.
+
+### 5d. Calculator/Converter: safer shell commands
+
+**Files:** `owlry-plugin-calculator/src/lib.rs`, `owlry-plugin-converter/src/lib.rs`
+**Problem:** `sh -c 'echo -n "..."'` pattern with double-quote interpolation. Theoretically breakable by unexpected result formatting.
+**Fix:** Use `printf '%s' '...' | wl-copy` with single-quote escaping (`replace('\'', "'\\''")`) — the same safe pattern already used by bookmarks and clipboard plugins.
+
+---
+
+## Out of scope
+
+These were identified but deferred:
+
+- **Hardcoded emoji list** — replacing with a crate/data file is a feature, not a fix
+- **Plugin vtable-level tests** — valuable but a separate testing initiative
+- **IPC protocol versioning** — protocol change, not a bug fix
+- **Plugin sandbox enforcement** — large feature, not a point fix
+- **Desktop Exec field sanitization** — deep rabbit hole, needs separate design
+- **Config validation** — separate concern, deserves its own pass

+# Script Runtime Integration for owlry-core Daemon
+
+**Date:** 2026-03-26
+**Scope:** Wire up Lua/Rune script runtime loading in the daemon, fix ABI mismatch, add filesystem-watching hot-reload, update plugin documentation
+**Repos:** owlry (core), owlry-plugins (docs only)
+
+---
+
+## Problem
+
+The daemon (`owlry-core`) only loads native plugins from `/usr/lib/owlry/plugins/`. User script plugins in `~/.config/owlry/plugins/` are never discovered because `ProviderManager::new_with_config()` never calls the `LoadedRuntime` infrastructure that already exists in `runtime_loader.rs`. Both Lua and Rune runtimes are installed at `/usr/lib/owlry/runtimes/` and functional, but never invoked.
+
+Additionally, the Lua runtime's `RuntimeInfo` struct has 5 fields while the core expects 2, causing a SIGSEGV on cleanup.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Fix Lua RuntimeInfo ABI mismatch
+
+**File:** `owlry/crates/owlry-lua/src/lib.rs`
+
+Shrink Lua's `RuntimeInfo` from 5 fields to 2, matching core and Rune:
+
+```rust
+// Before (5 fields — ABI mismatch with core):
+pub struct RuntimeInfo {
+    pub id: RString,
+    pub name: RString,
+    pub version: RString,
+    pub description: RString,
+    pub api_version: u32,
+}
+
+// After (2 fields — matches core/Rune):
+pub struct RuntimeInfo {
+    pub name: RString,
+    pub version: RString,
+}
+```
+
+Update `runtime_info()` to return only 2 fields. Remove the `LUA_RUNTIME_API_VERSION` constant and `LuaRuntimeVTable` (use the core's `ScriptRuntimeVTable` layout — both already match). The extra metadata (`id`, `description`) was never consumed by the core.
+
+### Vtable `init` signature change
+
+Change the `init` function in the vtable to accept the owlry version as a second parameter:
+
+```rust
+// Before:
+pub init: extern "C" fn(plugins_dir: RStr<'_>) -> RuntimeHandle,
+
+// After:
+pub init: extern "C" fn(plugins_dir: RStr<'_>, owlry_version: RStr<'_>) -> RuntimeHandle,
+```
+
+This applies to:
+- `owlry-core/src/plugins/runtime_loader.rs` — `ScriptRuntimeVTable.init`
+- `owlry-lua/src/lib.rs` — `LuaRuntimeVTable.init` and `runtime_init()` implementation
+- `owlry-rune/src/lib.rs` — `RuneRuntimeVTable.init` and `runtime_init()` implementation
+
+The core passes its version (`env!("CARGO_PKG_VERSION")` from `owlry-core`) when calling `(vtable.init)(plugins_dir, version)`. Runtimes forward it to `discover_and_load()` instead of hardcoding a version string. This keeps compatibility checks future-proof — no code changes needed on version bumps.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Change default entry points to `main`
+
+**Files:**
+- `owlry/crates/owlry-lua/src/manifest.rs` — change `default_entry()` from `"init.lua"` to `"main.lua"`
+- `owlry/crates/owlry-rune/src/manifest.rs` — change `default_entry()` from `"init.rn"` to `"main.rn"`
+
+Add `#[serde(alias = "entry_point")]` to the `entry` field in both manifests so existing `plugin.toml` files using `entry_point` continue to work.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Wire runtime loading into ProviderManager
+
+**File:** `owlry/crates/owlry-core/src/providers/mod.rs`
+
+In `ProviderManager::new_with_config()`, after native plugin loading:
+
+1. Get user plugins directory from `paths::plugins_dir()`
+2. Get owlry version: `env!("CARGO_PKG_VERSION")`
+3. Try `LoadedRuntime::load_lua(&plugins_dir, version)` — log at `info!` if unavailable, not error
+4. Try `LoadedRuntime::load_rune(&plugins_dir, version)` — same
+5. Call `create_providers()` on each loaded runtime
+6. Feed runtime providers into existing categorization (static/dynamic/widget)
+
+`LoadedRuntime::load_lua`, `load_rune`, and `load_from_path` all gain an `owlry_version: &str` parameter, which is passed to `(vtable.init)(plugins_dir, owlry_version)`.
+
+Store `LoadedRuntime` instances on `ProviderManager` in a new field `runtimes: Vec<LoadedRuntime>`. These must stay alive for the daemon's lifetime (they own the `Library` handle via `Arc`).
+
+Remove `#![allow(dead_code)]` from `runtime_loader.rs` since it's now used.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Filesystem watcher for automatic hot-reload
+
+**New file:** `owlry/crates/owlry-core/src/plugins/watcher.rs`
+**Modified:** `owlry/crates/owlry-core/src/providers/mod.rs`, `Cargo.toml`
+
+### Dependencies
+
+Add to `owlry-core/Cargo.toml`:
+```toml
+notify = "7"
+notify-debouncer-mini = "0.5"
+```
+
+### Watcher design
+
+After initializing runtimes, spawn a background watcher thread:
+
+1. Watch `~/.config/owlry/plugins/` recursively using `notify-debouncer-mini` with 500ms debounce
+2. On debounced event (any file create/modify/delete):
+   - Acquire write lock on `ProviderManager`
+   - Remove all runtime-backed providers from the provider vecs
+   - Drop old `LoadedRuntime` instances
+   - Re-load runtimes from `/usr/lib/owlry/runtimes/` with fresh plugin discovery
+   - Add new runtime providers to provider vecs
+   - Refresh the new providers
+   - Release write lock
+
+### Provider tracking
+
+`ProviderManager` needs to distinguish runtime providers from native/core providers for selective removal during reload. Options:
+
+- **Tag-based:** Runtime providers already use `ProviderType::Plugin(type_id)`. Keep a `HashSet<String>` of type_ids that came from runtimes. On reload, remove providers whose type_id is in the set.
+- **Separate storage:** Store runtime providers in their own vec, separate from native providers. Query merges results from both.
+
+**Chosen: Tag-based.** Simpler — runtime type_ids are tracked in a `runtime_type_ids: HashSet<String>` on `ProviderManager`. Reload clears the set, removes matching providers, then re-adds.
+
+### Thread communication
+
+The watcher thread needs access to `Arc<RwLock<ProviderManager>>`. The `Server` already holds this Arc. Pass a clone to the watcher thread at startup. The watcher acquires `write()` only during reload (~10ms), so read contention is minimal.
+
+### Watcher lifecycle
+
+- Started in `Server::run()` (or `Server::bind()`) before the accept loop
+- Runs until the daemon exits (watcher thread is detached or joined on drop)
+- Errors in the watcher (e.g., inotify limit exceeded) are logged and the watcher stops — daemon continues without hot-reload
+
+---
+
+## 5. Plugin development documentation
+
+**File:** `owlry-plugins/docs/PLUGIN_DEVELOPMENT.md`
+
+Cover:
+- **Plugin directory structure** — `~/.config/owlry/plugins/<name>/plugin.toml` + `main.lua`/`main.rn`
+- **Manifest reference** — all `plugin.toml` fields (`id`, `name`, `version`, `description`, `entry`/`entry_point`, `owlry_version`, `[[providers]]` section, `[permissions]` section)
+- **Lua plugin guide** — `owlry.provider.register()` API with `refresh` and `query` callbacks, item table format (`id`, `name`, `command`, `description`, `icon`, `terminal`, `tags`)
+- **Rune plugin guide** — `pub fn refresh()` and `pub fn query(q)` signatures, `Item::new()` builder, `use owlry::Item`
+- **Hot-reload** — changes are picked up automatically, no daemon restart needed
+- **Examples** — complete working examples for both Lua and Rune
+
+---
+
+## Out of scope
+
+- Config-gated runtime loading (runtimes self-skip if `.so` not installed)
+- Per-plugin selective reload (full runtime reload is fast enough)
+- Plugin registry/installation (already exists in the CLI)
+- Sandbox enforcement (separate concern, deferred from hardening spec)

+# Built-in Providers Migration — Design Spec
+
+## Goal
+
+Move calculator, converter, and system from external `.so` plugins (owlry-plugins repo) to native providers compiled into `owlry-core`. Remove 3 plugin AUR packages (transitional), 4 meta AUR packages (already deleted). Update READMEs for both repos.
+
+## Architecture
+
+The 3 plugins currently use the FFI plugin API (`PluginVTable`, `PluginItem`, etc.) and are loaded as `.so` files by `NativePluginLoader`. As built-in providers, they become native Rust modules inside `owlry-core/src/providers/` implementing the existing `Provider` trait — same as `ApplicationProvider` and `CommandProvider`.
+
+No changes to the plugin system itself. External plugins continue to work via `.so` loading.
+
+## Components
+
+### New modules in owlry-core
+
+- `providers/calculator.rs` — port of owlry-plugin-calculator (231 lines, depends on `meval`)
+- `providers/converter/mod.rs` — port of owlry-plugin-converter entry point
+- `providers/converter/parser.rs` — query parsing (235 lines, no new deps)
+- `providers/converter/units.rs` — unit definitions + conversion (944 lines, no new deps)
+- `providers/converter/currency.rs` — ECB rate fetching (313 lines, depends on `reqwest` blocking + `dirs` + `serde`)
+- `providers/system.rs` — port of owlry-plugin-system (257 lines, no new deps)
+
+### New owlry-core dependencies
+
+- `meval` — math expression evaluation (currently optional behind `lua` feature, make required)
+- `reqwest` with `blocking` feature — ECB currency rate fetching (currently optional behind `lua`, make required)
+- `dirs` — already a dependency
+- `serde`/`serde_json` — already dependencies
+
+### Modified files
+
+- `owlry-core/src/providers/mod.rs` — register the 3 new providers in `ProviderManager`, honor config toggles, classify calculator+converter as dynamic providers
+- `owlry-core/Cargo.toml` — move `meval` and `reqwest` from optional to required
+- `owlry-core/src/config/mod.rs` — add `converter` config toggle (calculator and system already exist)
+
+### Provider classification
+
+- Calculator → dynamic (queried per-keystroke via `query()`)
+- Converter → dynamic (queried per-keystroke via `query()`)
+- System → static (populated at `refresh()`, returns fixed list of actions)
+
+## Provider Type IDs
+
+Built-in providers use `ProviderType::Plugin(String)` with fixed IDs to maintain backward compatibility with the UI highlighting and filter system:
+
+- Calculator: `ProviderType::Plugin("calc".into())`
+- Converter: `ProviderType::Plugin("conv".into())`
+- System: `ProviderType::Plugin("sys".into())`
+
+This ensures the UI's highlighting logic (`matches!(id.as_str(), "calc" | "conv")`) and CSS badge classes (`.owlry-badge-calc`, `.owlry-badge-sys`) continue to work without changes.
+
+## Config
+
+Existing toggles in `[providers]`:
+
+```toml
+[providers]
+calculator = true   # already exists
+system = true       # already exists
+converter = true    # new — add with default true
+```
+
+When a toggle is false, the provider is not registered in `ProviderManager` at startup.
+
+## Currency Conversion
+
+The converter's currency feature uses `reqwest` (blocking) to fetch ECB exchange rates with a 24-hour file cache at `~/.cache/owlry/ecb_rates.json`. If the HTTP fetch fails (no network, timeout), currency conversion silently returns no results — unit conversion still works. This matches current plugin behavior.
+
+## AUR Changes
+
+### Main repo (owlry)
+
+- `aur/owlry-core/PKGBUILD` — bump version
+- Remove `aur/owlry-meta-*` directories (4 dirs, already deleted from AUR)
+
+### Plugins repo (owlry-plugins)
+
+- Remove crates: `owlry-plugin-calculator`, `owlry-plugin-converter`, `owlry-plugin-system`
+- Remove AUR dirs: `aur/owlry-plugin-calculator`, `aur/owlry-plugin-converter`, `aur/owlry-plugin-system` from tracked files
+- Push transitional PKGBUILDs to the 3 AUR repos:
+
+```bash
+pkgname=owlry-plugin-calculator  # (and converter, system)
+pkgver=<last_version>
+pkgrel=99
+pkgdesc="Transitional package — calculator is now built into owlry-core"
+arch=('any')
+depends=('owlry-core>=<new_version>')
+replaces=('owlry-plugin-calculator')
+# No source, no build, no package body
+```
+
+### Conflict prevention
+
+When owlry-core gains built-in calculator/converter/system, users who have the old `.so` plugins installed will have both the built-in provider AND the `.so` plugin active — duplicate results. The daemon should detect this: if a built-in provider ID matches a loaded native plugin ID, skip the native plugin. Add this check in `ProviderManager` when registering native plugins.
+
+## README Updates
+
+### Main repo README
+
+- Package table: remove separate plugin entries for calculator, converter, system — note them as built-in to owlry-core
+- Remove meta package section entirely
+- Update install examples (no need to install calculator/converter/system separately)
+
+### Plugins repo README
+
+- Remove calculator, converter, system from plugin listing
+- Add note that these 3 are built into owlry-core

+## Testing
+
+- Port existing plugin tests directly — they test provider logic, not FFI wrappers
+- `cargo test -p owlry-core --lib` covers all 3 new providers
+- Add conflict detection test (built-in provider ID vs native plugin ID)
+- Manual verification: `= 5+3` (calc), `20F` (conv), `20 euro to dollar` (currency), system actions

+# Config Editor — Design Spec
+
+## Goal
+
+A built-in provider in owlry-core that lets users browse and modify their configuration directly from the launcher UI, without opening a text editor.
+
+## Scope
+
+### Editable settings (curated)
+
+**Provider toggles** (boolean):
+- applications, commands, calculator, converter, system
+- websearch, ssh, clipboard, bookmarks, emoji, scripts, files
+- media, weather, pomodoro
+- uuctl (systemd user units)
+
+**Appearance** (text input + selection):
+- theme (selection from available themes)
+- font_size (numeric input)
+- width, height (numeric input)
+- border_radius (numeric input)
+
+**Search** (text input + selection):
+- search_engine (selection: google, duckduckgo, bing, startpage, brave, ecosia)
+- frecency (boolean toggle)
+- frecency_weight (numeric input, 0.0–1.0)
+
+**Profiles** (CRUD):
+- List existing profiles
+- Create new profile (name input + mode checklist)
+- Edit profile (rename, edit modes, delete)
+
+### Not in scope
+
+- Weather API key / location (sensitive, better in config file)
+- Pomodoro durations (niche, config file)
+- Plugin disabled list (covered by provider toggles)
+- use_uwsm / terminal_command (advanced, config file)
+
+## UX Flow
+
+### Entry point
+
+Type `:config` or select the "Settings" item that appears for queries like "settings", "config", "preferences".
+
+### Top-level categories
+
+```
+:config →
+  ┌─ Providers          Toggle providers on/off
+  ├─ Appearance          Theme, font size, dimensions
+  ├─ Search              Search engine, frecency
+  └─ Profiles            Manage named mode sets
+```
+
+Each category is a submenu item. Selecting one opens its submenu.
+
+### Provider toggles
+
+```
+Providers →
+  ┌─ ✓ Applications     [toggle]
+  ├─ ✓ Commands          [toggle]
+  ├─ ✓ Calculator        [toggle]
+  ├─ ✓ Converter         [toggle]
+  ├─ ✓ System            [toggle]
+  ├─ ✗ Weather           [toggle]
+  ├─ ...
+```
+
+Selecting a row toggles it. The ✓/✗ prefix updates immediately. Change is written to `config.toml` and hot-applied where possible.
+
+### Appearance settings
+
+```
+Appearance →
+  ┌─ Theme: owl                    [select]
+  ├─ Font Size: 14                 [edit]
+  ├─ Width: 850                    [edit]
+  ├─ Height: 650                   [edit]
+  └─ Border Radius: 12             [edit]
+```
+
+**Selection fields** (theme): Selecting opens a submenu with available options. Current value is marked with ✓.
+
+**Text/numeric fields** (font size, width, etc.): Selecting a row enters edit mode — the search bar clears and shows a placeholder like "Font Size (current: 14)". User types a new value and presses Enter. The value is validated (numeric, within reasonable range), written to config, and the submenu re-displays with the updated value.
+
+### Search settings
+
+```
+Search →
+  ┌─ Search Engine: duckduckgo     [select]
+  ├─ Frecency: enabled             [toggle]
+  └─ Frecency Weight: 0.3          [edit]
+```
+
+Same patterns — selection for engine, toggle for frecency, text input for weight.
+
+### Profile management
+
+```
+Profiles →
+  ┌─ dev (app, cmd, ssh)           [submenu]
+  ├─ media (media, emoji)          [submenu]
+  └─ ➕ Create New Profile         [action]
+```
+
+**Select existing profile** → submenu:
+```
+Profile: dev →
+  ┌─ Edit Modes                    [submenu → checklist]
+  ├─ Rename                        [text input]
+  └─ Delete                        [confirm action]
+```
+
+**Edit Modes** → checklist (same as provider toggles but for the profile's mode list):
+```
+Edit Modes: dev →
+  ┌─ ✓ app
+  ├─ ✓ cmd
+  ├─ ✗ calc
+  ├─ ✗ conv
+  ├─ ✓ ssh
+  ├─ ...
+```
+
+Toggle to include/exclude. Changes saved on submenu exit (Escape).
+
+**Create New Profile**:
+1. Search bar becomes name input (placeholder: "Profile name...")
+2. User types name, presses Enter
+3. Opens mode checklist (all unchecked)
+4. Toggle desired modes, press Escape to save
+
+**Delete**: Selecting "Delete" removes the profile from config and returns to the profiles list.
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Provider type
+
+Built-in static provider in owlry-core. Uses `ProviderType::Plugin("config")` with prefix `:config`.
+
+### Provider classification
+
+**Static** — the top-level items (Providers, Appearance, Search, Profiles) are populated at refresh time. But it also needs **submenu support** — each category opens a submenu with actions.
+
+This means the config provider needs to handle `?SUBMENU:` queries to generate submenu items dynamically, and `!ACTION:` commands to execute changes.
+
+### Command protocol
+
+Actions use the existing plugin action system (`PluginAction` IPC request):
+
+- `CONFIG:toggle:providers.calculator` — toggle a boolean
+- `CONFIG:set:appearance.font_size:16` — set a value
+- `CONFIG:set:providers.search_engine:google` — set a string
+- `CONFIG:profile:create:dev` — create a profile
+- `CONFIG:profile:delete:dev` — delete a profile
+- `CONFIG:profile:rename:dev:development` — rename
+- `CONFIG:profile:mode:dev:toggle:ssh` — toggle a mode in a profile
+
+### Config persistence
+
+All changes write to `~/.config/owlry/config.toml` via the existing `Config::save()` method.
+
+### Hot-apply behavior
+
+| Setting | Hot-apply | Notes |
+|---------|-----------|-------|
+| Provider toggles | Yes | Daemon re-reads config, enables/disables providers |
+| Theme | Yes | UI reloads CSS |
+| Frecency toggle/weight | Yes | Next search uses new value |
+| Search engine | Yes | Next web search uses new engine |
+| Font size | Restart | CSS variable, needs reload |
+| Width/Height | Restart | GTK window geometry set at construction |
+| Border radius | Restart | CSS variable, needs reload |
+| Profiles | Yes | Config file update, available on next `--profile` launch |
+
+Settings that require restart show a "(restart to apply)" hint in the description.
+
+### Submenu integration
+
+The config provider uses the existing submenu system:
+- Top-level items have `SUBMENU:config:{category}` commands
+- Categories return action items via `?SUBMENU:{category}`
+- Actions execute via `CONFIG:*` commands through `execute_plugin_action`
+
+This keeps the implementation within the existing provider/submenu architecture without new IPC message types.
