Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Your desktop offered, once, to let a coding agent reconfigure it. You closed the notice, because nothing on the screen said what would happen next.That notice fires one time per machine. Answer it and your Linux desktop hands an AI coding agent a set of keys you never chose: where it starts, which directory it trusts, what it may edit, and the permission flag it launches under. Decline it and you keep a desktop you configure by hand while the agent sits in a terminal, useful for code and blind to everything around it.This is the book for the developer who wants the first thing without walking into it unread.Omarchy 4 launches nine coding agents and picks none of them for you. The moment you pick one, six things come with the seat. This book names all six, prints the sentence each vendor publishes about its own permission flag, and gives every request you can make an exact receipt: the files it changes on your disk, what the shipped script or the manual says will happen, and the lever that puts it back.What you get: - Fifty-three catalogued requests, each an English sentence you type at the agent, each with its files, its expected result, and its undo- The nine launch lines verbatim, read from the shipped code, each beside its maker's own words about what the permission flag turns off, or the words NOT FOUND where no vendor wrote any- The skill file your agent reads before it touches anything, quoted whole and annotated section by section- The one directory an agent may edit, the tree it must never touch, and the single request in the book that nothing can undo- Every figure a later release will move, with the command that settles it on your own machineThis book is for you if: - You run Arch, Hyprland, or a tiling window manager and an AI coding assistant, and the two do not know about each other- You want the agent to change your keybindings, themes, monitors and window rules, and you want to see the diff before it does- You have been told an agent can drive your whole desktop and would like to know exactly how far that is true todayWritten against Omarchy 4.0.2, read at the release tag. Every claim traces to shipped code, the project's own manual, a vendor's published page, or a dated public discussion. Nothing here was run on a live machine, and every expected output says what it was derived from. Where the evidence base is silent, the page says so instead of guessing.When this book and your machine disagree, your machine is right.
