Avi a66996ac10 Orion vault — clean initial history 
Knowledge vault (Orion/PARA) migrated from the pre-Orion 484vault on
2026-10-01. Deliberately orphaned: prior history contained a plaintext
password and stays local-only on branch archive/pre-boilerplate-history.
Secrets and live Hermes state are gitignored.

Omarchy background picker doesn't see custom wallpapers

Symptom: images placed in the theme dir don't appear in the background picker.

Diagnosis: the picker scans ~/.local/state/omarchy/current/theme/backgrounds (a snapshot taken at theme-set time) plus ~/.config/omarchy/backgrounds/<theme-slug>/ — NOT ~/.config/omarchy/themes/<slug>/backgrounds, which is where custom theme images usually live.

Fix (standing, installed 2026-09-17): systemd user path + timer omarchy-bg-sync — ~/.local/bin/omarchy-bg-sync rsyncs the current custom theme's source backgrounds into the snapshot dir on change and every 5 min (no --delete).
