Migrate the shell palette to the v2 semantic spine and clean up spec violations: - Theme.qml: v2 neutrals (#070709 ground), split real blue (#5b8cff) from info cyan, retire the peach token, add a focus attention violet. - Weather: severity-driven coloring (cyan/amber/red) from weatherCode; replaces decorative peach. Forecast highs=text, lows=subtext0. - SystemPopout: performance profile + Reboot hold -> amber (peach retired). - Workspaces: active indicator red -> focus violet (selection is attention, not danger). - SystemPill: Arch logo lavender -> real blue. - Bar.qml: gate BluetoothPill instantiation behind hasBluetooth so BlueZ DBus never spins up when the bluetooth tag is off. - IdleScreen: route hardcoded hex through Theme tokens.
Quickshell Desktop Shell
A vertical bar + popout panel shell for Hyprland, built with Quickshell v0.2.x and themed with Catppuccin.
Setup
quickshell # launch (reads from ~/.config/quickshell/)

Configuration
All user settings live in shared/Config.qml. Edit this file to customize your setup:

Hyprland Layerrules (required for blur/transparency)
Add to your hyprland.conf:
# Enable blur on all Quickshell windows
layerrule = match:namespace quickshell:.*, blur on
layerrule = match:namespace quickshell:.*, ignore_alpha 0.79
The shell registers these namespaces:
| Namespace | Window |
|---|---|
quickshell:bar |
The main bar panel |
quickshell:popout |
Popout overlay (notifications, media, weather, etc.) |
quickshell:osd |
Volume/brightness OSD |
quickshell:notifications |
Toast notification popups |
quickshell:idle |
Idle screen overlay |
To target specific windows, replace quickshell:.* with the exact namespace:
# Only blur the bar, not popouts
layerrule = match:namespace quickshell:bar, blur on
layerrule = match:namespace quickshell:bar, ignore_alpha 0.79
If you set transparency: false in Config.qml, layerrules are not needed.
