Per @dhh's feedback on basecamp#4807, Emacs integration lives as an AUR package instead of in-tree. The menu now installs omarchy-emacs from the AUR, which brings in emacs-wayland as a dependency and provides omarchy-install-emacs to handle setup and the user systemd service — mirroring the omarchy-nvim pattern. Behavior is preserved: Emacs installed, configured with Omarchy theme/font integration, and the emacs.service user unit enabled. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
omarchy-emacsAUR package, mirroring theomarchy-nvimpattern.bin/omarchy-menu; no new files, no new dependencies in the Omarchy tree.Context
This is a follow-up to #4807, where I originally proposed adding Emacs integration directly to Omarchy. @dhh, thank you for the feedback on that PR — your suggestion to package it as an AUR package (like
omarchy-nvim) was exactly the right call, and working through it taught me a lot about Arch packaging conventions. Really appreciate it.The integration now lives at:
The AUR package ships
omarchy-install-emacs, which is the single entry point for installingemacs-wayland, running setup (themes, font-sync hook, color template), and enabling the useremacs.service— equivalent to what the current menu line does today.Behavior
Before:
install "Emacs" "emacs-wayland" && systemctl --user enable --now emacs.serviceAfter:
present_terminal "omarchy-pkg-aur-add omarchy-emacs && omarchy-install-emacs"End-user experience is unchanged — Emacs installs, configures, and starts the daemon. The config/theme code just lives in the AUR package instead of Omarchy itself.
Test plan
omarchy-pkg-aur-add omarchy-emacs && omarchy-install-emacs(the exact command the menu line invokes) succeedsemacs-waylandis pulled in as a dependency ofomarchy-emacsemacs.serviceis enabled and running after installomarchy-theme-set→ Emacs picks up new colors)🤖 Generated with Claude Code
