hyprland-local

name	hyprland-local
description	Use automatically for Hyprland troubleshooting, configuration, Wayland compositor issues, monitors, input, keybinds, rules, animations, decoration, portals, plugins, crashes, NVIDIA, or hyprctl/hyprpm questions. Prefer local official Hyprland Wiki evidence via hyprwiki tools before web sources.

Hyprland Local Wiki

Use the local official Hyprland Wiki clone before web sources. Optimize for source-backed answers with bounded output and local path citations.

Corpus profile

• Local checkout path: ~/.hyprwiki
• Upstream repository: https://github.com/hyprwm/hyprland-wiki.git
• Parser/format: Markdown with frontmatter-title handling and fenced-code-aware heading extraction
• Indexed extensions: .md, .mdx
• Setup command: /hyprwiki-local-setup
• Smoke test: /hyprwiki-smoke-test or hyprwiki_smoke_test({ maxSearchResults: 5 })

Required workflow

1. Run hyprwiki_search({ query, limit: 5, includeSnippets: false }) for the user's Hyprland topic.
2. Use hyprwiki_sections({ page, maxSections: 40-80 }) when the right page is found but the relevant heading is unclear.
3. Prefer exact hyprwiki_extract({ page, section, maxChars: 4000-8000, maxSections: 2-5 }) for final evidence.
4. Use query extraction only for exploration, then switch to exact section headings when available.
5. Use hyprwiki_read({ page, maxChars }) only for broad context or when no relevant heading is identifiable.
6. Use hyprwiki_related({ page, limit: 5-10 }) when the issue spans connected Hyprland topics.
7. Compare documentation guidance with local config/system evidence when relevant.
8. Cite local paths and section names in final answers.
9. Prefer read-only diagnostics and ask before destructive or user-facing changes.

Search hints

• Monitors: monitor resolution scale, hyprctl monitors, workspace monitor.
• Window rules: windowrule float opacity, window rules class title, workspace rules.
• Input/keybinds: keyboard kb_layout keybinds, bind dispatcher, touchpad gestures.
• Portals/screen sharing: xdg desktop portal screenshare, xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland.
• NVIDIA: nvidia wayland env, nvidia multi gpu, GBM.
• Plugins: hyprpm plugins, using plugins, plugin guidelines.

Source priority

1. Local official Hyprland Wiki via hyprwiki_* tools.
2. Local user config/system evidence (hyprctl, config files, logs) when relevant.
3. Official online Hyprland Wiki/GitHub only when local docs are missing, stale, or insufficient.
4. Other sources only when necessary and clearly labeled.

Tool usage

• hyprwiki_search({ query, limit, includeSnippets }): find candidate pages. Keep limit at 5 unless exploring broadly; snippets default off.
• hyprwiki_sections({ page, maxSections }): inspect headings before extracting from large pages.
• hyprwiki_extract({ page, section, maxChars, maxSections }): retrieve focused exact sections; best for final answers.
• hyprwiki_extract({ page, query, maxChars, maxSections }): retrieve query-relevant sections; best for exploration.
• hyprwiki_read({ page, maxChars }): retrieve broad page text; use sparingly.
• hyprwiki_related({ page, limit }): discover linked local pages.
• hyprwiki_smoke_test({ maxSearchResults }): verify parser/search/extract/read behavior after package or corpus updates.

Read-only diagnostics examples

Use only when relevant:

hyprctl version
hyprctl monitors
hyprctl clients
hyprctl activewindow
hyprctl getoption general:gaps_in
journalctl --user -b -u hyprland --no-pager

Ask before editing Hyprland config, restarting the compositor/session, disabling portals, changing GPU environment, or installing/removing plugins.

Token/output discipline

• Prefer search -> sections -> exact section extract for final answers.
• Keep search limits small (limit: 5-10) and snippets off unless needed.
• Use maxSections around 2-5 and maxChars around 4000-8000 for focused extracts.
• If omittedSectionCount or truncated: true affects confidence, say so explicitly.

Citation format

Use local source citations like:

Sources:
- ~/.hyprwiki/content/Configuring/Basics/Monitors.md — General
- ~/.hyprwiki/content/Configuring/Basics/Window-Rules.md — Window Rules
