Live watching now works with zero external dependencies.

  • Native rules hot-reload — the rules file is watched with Quickshell's FileView instead of an inotifywait process.
  • Built-in fallback folder watcher — without inotify-tools, flat folders are live-watched by a Qt directory watcher (files appearing, disappearing, or changing size react immediately; quiet in-place rewrites are left to the periodic sweep). No configuration needed — it engages automatically.
  • inotify-tools is now optional — required only for recursive = true folders; when installed it remains the preferred watcher everywhere for its sharper close_write/moved_to events.
  • Fixed two Text.PlainText annotations that had landed mid-expression in multi-line bindings.

Update with omarchy plugin update io.github.bscott.omazel.
