Controls

The dot omarchy desktop controls menu and local keybindings.

`dot omarchy`

Opens the Omarchy desktop controls menu. Pass a submenu path to jump straight to it, or chain a path to execute an action directly.

dot omarchy              # open the controls menu (TUI)
dot omarchy theme        # jump to the Theme submenu
dot omarchy theme set    # execute theme set directly

Keybinding overrides

The shared Hyprland config loads after Omarchy’s defaults. It replaces these default bindings:

Binding	Omarchy default	Local action
`SUPER+TAB`	Next workspace	Apply a saved workspace layout
`SUPER+ALT+TAB`	Next grouped window	Edit workspace layout presets
`CTRL+ALT+TAB`	Focus next monitor	Unbound in Hyprland; available to applications such as Ghostty
`CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+TAB`	Focus previous monitor	Unbound in Hyprland; available to applications such as Ghostty
`SUPER+SHIFT+F`	File manager	Add the active application to the floating rules
`SUPER+RETURN`	Omarchy terminal launcher	Open host-configured Ghostty in the active terminal directory
`SUPER+SHIFT+B`	Browser	Open a private personal Chromium window
`SUPER+CTRL+T`	Activity (btop)	Open the clock panel with local and US time zones
`SUPER+ALT+-` / `SUPER+ALT+=`	Resize width by 25	Resize width by 2
`SUPER+ALT+SHIFT+-` / `SUPER+ALT+SHIFT+=`	Resize height by 25	Resize height by 2

The config also redirects CTRL+SHIFT+T, CTRL+SHIFT+W, CTRL+TAB, and CTRL+SHIFT+TAB to Herdr tab actions while Ghostty is active. Other applications receive the original key event.

Custom bindings that conflicted with Quattro defaults use these chords instead:

Binding	Local action	Avoided default
`SUPER+CTRL+ALT+P`	Power profile menu	Power panel on `SUPER+CTRL+P`
`SUPER+CTRL+ALT+C`	Open Notes Capture	Calendar on `SUPER+SHIFT+C`
`SUPER+CTRL+SHIFT+S`	Slack	Google Maps on `SUPER+SHIFT+S`
`SUPER+ALT+X`	X notifications	Universal cut on `SUPER+X` and X on `SUPER+SHIFT+X`
`SUPER+ALT+G`	GitHub notifications	Move window out of group on `SUPER+CTRL+G`
`SUPER+CTRL+SHIFT+C`	Toggle in-call automation	Calendar on `SUPER+SHIFT+C`
`SUPER+CTRL+SHIFT+M`	Toggle microphone mute	Music on `SUPER+SHIFT+M`
`SUPER+CTRL+SHIFT+B`	Reconnect laptop Bluetooth headphones	Battery status on `SUPER+CTRL+ALT+B`

CTRL+ALT+H toggles the Home Assistant dashboard panel from the Omarchy bar. CTRL+ALT+G toggles the unified Git panel from the Omarchy bar. CTRL+ALT+S toggles the System Bridge health panel from the Omarchy bar.

The config leaves Quattro’s native SUPER+W close-window, SUPER+SHIFT+RETURN browser, SUPER+ALT+RETURN Tmux, and SUPER+SHIFT+/ 1Password bindings in place. Application defaults such as Tmux and 1Password require Omarchy’s preinstalled bindings to be enabled.

Power profiles

Power-profile control has two entrypoints:

dot omarchy power opens the Omarchy power-profile submenu from the dot TUI.
SUPER+CTRL+ALT+P runs power-profile-menu, an Omarchy menu that shows the current profile and selects one of the profiles reported by omarchy-powerprofiles-list.

The menu writes the selected profile with powerprofilesctl set, so the available choices and final state come from power-profiles-daemon rather than a dot-specific state file.

Laptop automation

The laptop Hypr host starts power-profile-daemon from ~/.config/hypr/host/autostart.lua. It replaces Omarchy’s AC udev auto-switching, which otherwise forces performance on AC.

On laptops, the daemon keeps the profile conservative by default:

Startup sets balanced, unless the machine is on battery during the 01:00-07 local night window or below 20% battery.
Unplugging from AC drops performance to balanced; it leaves existing balanced and power-saver choices alone.
Plugging into AC relaxes power-saver back to balanced; it leaves balanced and performance alone.
While on battery, the daemon switches to power-saver once when the night window starts or when battery drops below 20%.
Manual changes after an automatic night switch are respected. At the end of the night window, the daemon only returns to balanced if it is still on the auto-applied power-saver profile and the battery is not below the low threshold.

The daemon keeps a single-instance pidfile under ${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR:-/tmp}/power-profile-daemon.pid and polls AC/time/battery state every two seconds. It sends best-effort desktop notifications through omarchy notification send.

Troubleshooting

Use the underlying tools to verify state before changing the dotfiles:

powerprofilesctl get
omarchy-powerprofiles-list
pgrep -af power-profile-daemon

If SUPER+CTRL+ALT+P opens no choices, check that omarchy-powerprofiles-list prints profile IDs. If the laptop policy is not running, confirm the active host symlink points at the laptop overrides and that Hyprland loaded ~/.config/hypr/host/autostart.lua; see Host Overrides.
