August 2025 – basecamp/omarchy: Delivered three core enhancements spanning UX, security, and UI consistency. Screensaver improvements consolidate configuration defaults (non-editable, black background) and add a user-facing toggle with forced-start support; updates to related scripts and menus. Sudo policy hardening increases max password attempts to 10, with a new reset-offline script and an install-time migration to apply the new settings. UI updates standardize window resizing keybindings by adopting a code-syntax format for consistency. These changes collectively reduce security risk, improve user control and experience, and improve maintainability and deployment readiness. Technical contributions include scripting for migrations, clear commit messages, and robust UI conventions.
