+# Packages
+
+## Leaving the Omarchy repository
+
+Omarchy ships its own binary repository, added to `/etc/pacman.conf`:
+
+```
+[omarchy]
+Server = https://pkgs.omarchy.org/stable/$arch
+```
+
+Thirty-one installed packages came from it. `blob-repo-migrate` moves off it.
+Run it dry first; it changes nothing without `--apply`:
+
+```
+blob repo-migrate
+blob repo-migrate --apply
+```
+
+It refuses to run if the stock `linux` package is not installed, because it
+removes `linux-omarchy`.
+
+## What happens to each package
+
+### Removed (15)
+
+Omarchy's own software, plus one hardware helper this machine has no use for:
+
+`omarchy`, `omarchy-keyring`, `omarchy-settings`, `omarchy-nvim`, `omacalc`,
+`omacut`, `omawrite`, `tensaku`, `tobi-try`, `cliamp`, `herdr`, `ttfx`,
+`linux-omarchy`, `linux-omarchy-headers`, `asdcontrol`.
+
+`linux-omarchy` was installed but not booted - the running kernel is stock
+`core/linux`, so the machine is not relying on it. `asdcontrol` sets brightness
+on Apple Studio Displays and is reachable only from
+`blob-brightness-display-apple`.
+
+### Replaced (2)
+
+| From | To | Where |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `ttf-jetbrains-mono-nerd-basic` | `ttf-jetbrains-mono-nerd` | official `extra` |
+| `hyprland-preview-share-picker` | `hyprland-preview-share-picker-git` | AUR |
+
+The first is Omarchy's trimmed build of a font Arch ships in full.
+
+### Kept, from the AUR (14)
+
+`aether`, `limine-mkinitcpio-hook`, `limine-snapper-sync`, `localsend`,
+`minecraft-launcher`, `mise-bin`, `spotify`, `ttf-ia-writer`, `tzupdate`,
+`ufw-docker`, `visual-studio-code-bin`, `xdg-terminal-exec`, `yaru-icon-theme`,
+`yay`.
+
+All exist in the AUR under the same name. Once the repository is gone, pacman
+treats them as foreign and `yay` picks them up, so `blob update` rebuilds them
+from source. The first update after migrating therefore takes noticeably longer
+than usual.
+
+Two are worth knowing about:
+
+- `xdg-terminal-exec` is load-bearing. Every TUI launcher's `Exec=` line calls
+  it, so if its AUR build ever fails, TUI shortcuts stop opening.
+- `aether` is in the AUR at a version newer than the one the repository shipped.
+
+`quickshell` never came from the Omarchy repository - it is in official `extra`.
+
+## Updating
+
+```
+blob update
+```
+
+Refreshes the keyring, runs `pacman -Syu`, runs `yay -Sua` when the AUR is
+reachable, prunes orphans, and sends a notification. `blob update-available`
+prints the pending count that the bar's update indicator reads.
+
+This replaces 27 upstream scripts of channel, migration, and version-pinning
+machinery. There are no release channels: there is one repository set, which is
+Arch plus the AUR.
+
+## After migrating
+
+```
+pacman -Qtdq        # orphans the removals left behind
+pacman -Qm          # everything now AUR-managed
+```
+
+`blob-repo-migrate` backs up `/etc/pacman.conf` to `pacman.conf.bak.<epoch>`
+before editing, and prints the path.
