qs-log follows the working-tree instance's log filtered to WARN|ERROR (-a for
everything), and the shellHook starts it in the background once qs-dev is up,
taking it down again in the exit trap alongside qs-prod. A binding loop or a
failed binding is a WARN, and easy to miss when it scrolls past unwatched.
It starts at the end of the log rather than replaying the backlog, and
re-attaches in a loop: `qs log -f` ends when the instance it attached to exits,
and the dev shell outlives individual instances.
Also corrects the hot-reload note added in 7268221, which was wrong on both
counts. Tested against the running shell: `touch` never reloads (mtime is not a
content change) and inode-replacing edits like `sed -i` are picked up fine. The
reliable check is whether `qs log` shows a "Reloading configuration..." line.

A second shell chrome under dotfiles/quickshell/hyprchrome, built around a
BarPanel that carries TWO renderings of its data: the default children are the
expanded detail view, `summary` the terse one shown while collapsed. Both stay
bound to the same sources, so the densities cannot disagree, and the panel
cross-fades between them while its height animates.
Panels: HostPanel (hostname, user, timezone, clock), VitalsPanel (CPU load and
temperature, memory, GPU load and temperature, all metered), TrayPanel (system
tray, self-sizing). HyprChromeBar pins them to DP-2 and owns `expanded` for the
whole rail — SUPER A, via GlobalShortcut "chrome".
GPU busy comes off sysfs rather than the node_exporter scrape VitalsData
already does: the hwmon collector carries the card's temps, power and clocks
but not its utilisation.
The bar's height binds to each panel's `targetHeight` — where it will settle,
not where the animation currently is — because the exclusive zone is
window-sized by default, and binding to the animated height relayouts every
tiled window on the output twelve times per toggle. The zone follows the target
immediately so the desktop reflows once, at the start; the surface itself
shrinks only after the panels finish, or it would clip them mid-animation.
DebugWindow stages a widget in the middle of the secondary monitor
(SUPER CTRL D), masked so only the staged widget takes pointer input.

The shell was running two unrelated palettes: an amber one (#FFD063 accent,
#EEEEEE text, #0F1012 panels) hardcoded as ~200 raw hex literals across the
launchers, sidebar, systray, vitals and notifications, and an orange one
(#e8722a) that only the dense bar had, tokenized as per-file properties.
This unifies on the ORANGE values under the AMBER naming scheme, and moves the
lot into widgets/theme/Theme.qml. `surface` takes the dense bar's void
(#0a0a0a) rather than the old panel background. Zero color and font literals
remain anywhere under widgets/ outside Theme.qml.
Collisions resolved, all near-duplicates that wanted to be one token:
- #0F1012 + #0A0A0C + #0a0a0a -> surface
- #EEEEEE + #dedede -> text
- #7A7B7D + #858585 -> muted
- #292C30 + #22262C -> raised
- #FFD063 + #e8722a -> accent
Two derived things rather than literals. accentSoft (the pale flash the
top/bottom bars show while a launcher is open) was a hand-picked #FFF3C0
against amber, which is simply wrong against orange; it is now
Qt.tint(accent, white 55%), a ratio checked against the original (amber tinted
55% gives #FFE9B8 vs the hand-picked #FFF3C0). And the dense bar had been
hand-encoding Qt.rgba(0.87,0.87,0.87,a) and Qt.rgba(0.91,0.45,0.16,a), which
are just text and accent at alpha -- now textAlpha(a)/accentAlpha(a), so they
track a palette change instead of silently drifting.
Fonts came along too. Digital-7 Mono is dropped for DepartureMono: it was
never packaged, relying on a manual ~/.dots/fonts/digital_7 install that does
not exist on terra, so `fc-match "Digital-7 Mono"` resolved to DejaVu Sans and
all 38 of those sites -- the launcher lists, sidebar clock, systray labels,
every vitals readout -- were silently rendering in a PROPORTIONAL fallback.
Numeric columns should visibly improve. readoutFont is an alias of displayFont
rather than a second literal so the two roles cannot drift apart.
quickshell/CLAUDE.md updated: it said "No shared theme/tokens file yet" and
told contributors to grep for the existing hex color, which would now
reintroduce exactly what this removes.
Verified: no file references Theme. without the import, none imports it
unused, and the whole shell -- launchers, sidebar, vitals, systray,
notifications, not just the harness -- hot-reloaded clean on terra.
tests/HeadlessSmoke.qml deliberately keeps its own copies; its value is having
no dependencies.

Config was symlinked from ~/.dots/quickshell (separate dotfiles repo); now
tracked here and applied via home-manager xdg.configFile.
