New GTK4 layer-shell radial menu (desktopenvs/hyprlua/orbit-menu/), following
astal-menu's single-instance D-Bus daemon conventions. Super+Shift+O opens
straight into a Power ring (sleep/reboot/poweroff/soft-reboot via hyprshutdown);
Super+Ctrl+O opens the full 5-category root (Power, Tools, Scripts sourced live
from ~/Documents/Scripts, Management, and a live open-Windows list with
go-to/bring-here/close/force-kill/get-pid/send-to-workspace actions). Adds a
round launcher button to all 3 eww bar variants with matching glow/hover CSS.
Also retunes hypridle (lock 30s, sleep 1min) and adds a HibernateDelaySec
systemd-sleep.conf.d fragment (deployed by sysupdate.sh) so the machine
hibernates ~80 minutes after going idle instead of drifting to sleep indefinitely.
Rework the Eww caffeine widget into two independent inputs — manual inhibit
and presence detected — yielding four states across all three bars:
neither → sleep, purple
manual only → ☕ coffee, purple
presence only → eye, pink
manual + presence → ☕ coffee, pink
Colour tracks presence; the coffee cup shows only while manually inhibiting.
To make the two inputs independent, the daemon now writes a standalone
/tmp/presence-detected flag each tick (decoupled from lock ownership, so it's
true even during a manual session). presence-status.sh reports that flag
(presence input); new caffeine-manual-status.sh reports lock-held-and-not-
presence-owned (manual input).
Make detection less finnicky: space the detector's frame grabs (0.06s) so slow
movement registers and loopback reads never diff a stale duplicate frame, and
lower the thresholds (delta 25→18, area 2%→0.8%). Add a 90s grace window so
brief stillness never flickers presence off; any motion resets the clock.
Add a third poll tier — INTERVAL_FAST=2s when CPU-or-RAM usage is below 30%
(LOAD_LIGHT) — alongside the existing 20s normal and 120s busy tiers.

Add presence-status.sh reporting true only when the daemon (not a manual
caffeine toggle) owns the shared idle lock, via the existing OWNED_FLAG.
Wire it into all three eww bars: the caffeine button gains a
.caffeine-presence class → the #E40046 Active accent used elsewhere, so
camera-driven auto-awake is visually distinct from a manual session.

- hypr/layouts/: drop-in layout registry. init.lua auto-discovers layouts/<name>.lua
(each self-describing) and exposes the global `layouts` table: set_default (picked
in hyprland.lua — now scrolling, direction down), set(ws,name,dir) for live
per-workspace switching (verified it re-tiles the active ws), set_fit(0/1). Writes
a manifest + per-ws state for the menu. Ships scrolling/dwindle/master/monocle.
- Scrolling default: column_width 0.5 (active column < viewport so prev/next stay
clickable), focus_fit_method 1 (centered follow), fullscreen_on_one_column.
- astal-menu taskbar pop-open: workspace layout selector + direction + a "Centered"
toggle (focus_fit_method), and a per-window list — [icon+title → jump][⇤ here →
pull to current workspace], keeping jump-to-window intact.
- eww bar menu buttons open the menu explicitly from the top (menu-toggle.sh toggle top).

A touch-friendly GTK4 popup control centre (Python + PyGObject, wlr-layer-shell)
launched from the EWW bar or Super+D. Replaces nwg-dock and nwg-drawer.
Layout: a floating, drawn-bordered panel (anchored top-centre so it never blocks
the rest of the screen) with a 2x2 quad grid over a full-width app drawer, plus a
top taskbar. Any quad expands over the others; the drawer expands to the bottom.
Modules:
- Location — static OSM map (backend/staticmap.py) on IP geolocation
(libshumate won't paint tiles in this env; shumate-demo is blank too)
- Weather — wttr.in ANSI art rendered via an SGR parser into a TextView
- Bluetooth — AstalBluetooth: discovery/connect/disconnect + local history
- Network — AstalNetwork wifi + nmcli/ip/ss for IP, DHCP/manual, routes, ports,
public IP; per-feature toggles
- Taskbar — open windows from hyprctl, grouped by app with pop-out per instance
- Favorites — pinned apps (right-click/long-press to pin) atop the app drawer
Notes:
- Frontend is Python/GTK4, not Lua: lgi/Astal-Lua are GTK3-only.
- Module borders are drawn with a Cairo overlay (lib/border.py); this GTK build's
renderer skips CSS border/background on plain container widgets.
- Consumes Astal GObject libs (io/apps/network/bluetooth) via introspection.
Wiring: autostart + Super+D/Super+Shift+A binds, EWW launcher button in all three
bar variants, apply-theme.sh (_colors.css), installer packages, config-updater.
drawer.sh moved to scripts/deprecated/.

- caffeine: inhibit only `idle`, not `sleep`, so lid close still locks
- binds: lid-close unconditionally calls hyprlock; lid-open does dpms on
- hypridle: reduce lock timeout from 3 min to 2.5 min (150 s)
- eww (all 3 variants): add caffeine toggle button (☕/) with tooltip

Replace hyprctl dispatch with hyprctl eval using hl.dsp.* in all
three eww variants. Workspace switching uses hl.dsp.focus with r+/r-
relative prefixes; killactive becomes hl.dsp.window.close(); exec
uses hl.dsp.exec_cmd.

Duplicates desktopenvs/hyprland/ as desktopenvs/hyprlua/ and converts all
Hyprland-specific configs (.conf) to Lua (.lua) using the 0.55+ hl.* API:
hyprland.lua, envvars.lua, monitors.lua, input.lua, autostart.lua,
windowrules.lua, binds.lua. Non-Hyprland tool configs (hyprpaper, hyprlock,
hypridle, hyprtoolkit) remain as .conf. Adds hyprlua.sh installer (user-side
.lua files install to ~/.config/hypr/ for require() resolution) and registers
HyprLua as the recommended DE option in tui-install.sh, marking the old
hyprlang-based Hyprland install as legacy.
Also consolidates hyprland (legacy) env vars into hypr-usr/envvars.conf,
removing duplicates from hyprland.conf and monitors.conf.
