All Omarchy's menus rewritten as one fluid island.
Features · Screenshots · Install · Usage · Uninstall
- At rest: a clock, or album art and an animated sound wave while music plays.
- Live activities: browser downloads, system updates (pacman, yay, paru, and Omarchy updates), charging and low battery, Bluetooth connections, and anything you copy show up on the pill.
- Live feedback: notification previews and animated volume and mute feedback, with Claude Code and Codex notifications getting their own icons.
- Ask AI: type a question in the launcher and Claude or Codex answers right in the island, Siri-style, using the command-line tool you're already signed in to.
- Expanded views: a control center, player, app launcher, clipboard history, emoji and keybinding search, theme and wallpaper switchers, Omarchy menu, and power menu.
- Theme aware: text and accent colors follow your current Omarchy theme.
- Settings: a pane in the control center for animation speed, a MacBook notch style, the clock, live activities, and addons.
Island runs inside Omarchy's Quickshell process and reserves no screen space.

Island is the bar, so plugins that add their own panel, overlay, or menu keep
working — open the Plugins view (Settings → Keybinds, or the plugins addon) to
enable one and open it. Plugins that add a bar widget can't show while
Island is the bar, since Island doesn't render other plugins' widgets; if you
need one, switch back with omarchy bar use omarchy.bar. See
issue #8.
Ask AI is an addon, on by default. Questions typed in the launcher are answered by the AI chosen under Ask With (Settings → Addons → Ask AI), through its command-line tool:
- Claude: Claude Code, signed in (
claude). - Codex: Codex CLI, signed in (
codex).
Remove the addon to turn asking off.

own notifications come back), undoes the shell.json and Omarchy menu changes
the setup made, deletes island-bindings.lua, removes Island, and restarts the
shell.
