+      pull request **into the release branch**, not into `main`. Its commits
+      add their changelog lines to that version's section.
+    - When the release is done and tested (the test plan in

+      release branch itself once tested (with `gh`: `gh pr create --base
+      release/X.Y.Z` + `gh pr merge --merge`; no review needed). Without
+      `gh` (`command -v gh`), ask the user to install it (Ubuntu:
+      `sudo apt install gh`, then `gh auth login`) instead of working around
+      it. Only the

+      or merge to `main`, the user merges that one. Never work directly on
+      `main` or a `release/*` branch either: edits, even uncommitted ones,
+      go on a `feature/`/`bugfix/` branch (create it before editing; the
+      release branch only gets the version-bump commit and merged PRs).
+      Don't push a new `release/*` branch before it's needed: a push can
+      start CI builds (a dev ISO).

+      A `.no-release-yet` file at the root of a feature/bugfix branch means
+      it must not be merged into the release branch yet (work in progress,
+      untested on hardware). When the feature is complete, ask the user
+      whether it may be released; on a yes, delete the file, then open the

   latter only starts with `kcgroupsrc [Foreground Booster] autostart=true`
   (set with `kset`). Disable removes only the packages it installed
   (`state_get vram installed_pkgs`).
+- Install-time mode (`steamify.sh --defaults`, 2.6.0): applies what the menu

+  bus, user systemd or plasmashell. So every `systemctl --user` goes through
+  `user_systemctl` (`lib/common.sh`; without a session only unit files change,
+  via `--root=/`), and the theme, when the layout is still `/etc/skel`'s,
+  removes it so Plasma builds Vapor's layout at the first login. What needs

+  `defaults_options` in `lib/menu.sh`); the ISO's installer page passes them.
+  Items this PC can't use are left off with a warning, not an error.
+  `steamify.sh --boot gamescope|desktop` on its own (2.7.0, for scripts) only
+  switches `boot` on an installed conversion: `WANTED` is `CURRENT` plus
+  that, so no updates or removals a normal run would pick.
+- What Steam's System settings show (SteamOS conversion, 2.9.0): the OS name
+  stays CachyOS's everywhere (legal clarity; Steam's OS Name is
+  `lsb_release -d`, not touched). `/etc/os-release` gets `VERSION_ID=steamos-X.Y`
+  (Steam's OS Version: Valve's newest jupiter repo; offline, the previous
+  value), `VERSION_CODENAME=steam-machine`, `VARIANT="Steamify <version>"` and
+  `VARIANT_ID=steamify-<version>` (Steam shows VARIANT_ID as OS Variant),
+  refreshed by `os_version_refresh` after every run that changes something; a
+  pacman hook (`zz-steamify-os-release`) runs after cachyos-hooks. KDE's About
+  this System would show VERSION_ID after the name: `kcm-about-distrorc`
+  `UseOSReleaseVersion=true` (kset) makes it show os-release's VERSION, which
+  CachyOS doesn't have. Never `NAME` or `PRETTY_NAME`: limine-snapper-sync
+  finds the boot entries by the OS name ("Target OS name ... not found in
+  /boot/limine.conf"); `/etc/default/limine` gets `TARGET_OS_NAME="CachyOS"`
+  when it has none, as a guard. The serial number (tmpfiles rule) is Steam
+  Machine support's, so Fremont only.
 - `Relogin=true` means a gamescope that fails to start is relaunched in a
   tight loop; keep that in mind when changing session handling.

+
+| Key | Value | Shown in Steam as |
+|---|---|---|
+| `VERSION_ID` | `steamos-3.9`: the newest SteamOS release in Valve's repo (offline: the previous value) | OS Version |
+| `VERSION_CODENAME` | `steam-machine` | OS Codename |
+| `VARIANT` / `VARIANT_ID` | `Steamify 2.9.0` / `steamify-2.9.0` | OS Variant (`VARIANT_ID`) |
+
+The OS name stays CachyOS everywhere: Steam's OS Name comes from
+`lsb_release -d`, which isn't touched, and `NAME`/`PRETTY_NAME` stay
+CachyOS's. limine-snapper-sync finds the boot entries by that name, so
+changing it would break snapshot boot entries; `/etc/default/limine` gets
+`TARGET_OS_NAME="CachyOS"` as a guard when it has none.
+
+KDE's About this System would show `VERSION_ID` after the name
+("CachyOS Linux steamos-3.9"); `UseOSReleaseVersion=true` in
+`~/.config/kcm-about-distrorc` makes it show `VERSION`, which CachyOS doesn't
+have, so it keeps saying "CachyOS Linux".
+
+CachyOS's own hooks (`cachyos-hooks`) reset os-release on updates of
+`filesystem`; the pacman hook `zz-steamify-os-release` runs after them and
+sets the keys again (`/usr/local/libexec/steamify-os-release`). The values are
+refreshed after every Steamify run that changes something. Turning the
+conversion off removes the hook and runs CachyOS's `cachyos-branding` again.

+(the driver already reports both `Y`), and gamescope started nested inside KDE artifacts too when KWin hands its fullscreen
+window straight to the display. What does work on an RTX 5080: Steam's Big Picture (`steam -gamepadui`) as a normal window of
+the Plasma desktop session, smooth and clean.
+
+So with an NVIDIA GPU (PCI vendor 0x10de, display class, its driver providing `nvidia_drm`: `nvidia_present`) the SteamOS
+conversion (`gaming`, and its options `boot`, `single`, `glyphs`) isn't offered, unless it is already on (so it can be turned
+off). `nvidia` ("Gaming on NVIDIA", `lib/nvidia.sh`) takes its place, hidden while the conversion is on (both would start
+Steam at login): it installs `steam` when missing (recorded in state `nvidia`, removed again only then) and enables the user
+unit `steamify-steam-autostart.service` (`services/`, `ExecStart=/usr/bin/steam @ARGS@`, Plasma only). Its sub-option
+`bigpicture` ("Steam starts in Big Picture", ticked along with it) rewrites the unit with `-gamepadui` and sets
+`ksmserverrc [General] loginMode=emptySession` (`kset`, undone with `krevert bigpicture`), so windows of the last session
+(Discord, a browser) aren't restored on top of Big Picture; unticked, Steam starts in its normal window. The PC always boots into the desktop: there is no gamescope session. Takes effect at the next
+login.
+
+On a supported card (RTX 20 series or newer: not on chwd's legacy lists `/var/lib/chwd/ids/nvidia-*.ids`, the VRAM booster's
+check, `vram_nvidia_legacy_id`; `nvidia_supported`) enabling it also does what NVIDIA's DRM stack wants, though it didn't cure
+gamescope: `nvidia-drm.modeset=1 nvidia-drm.fbdev=1` on the kernel command line (Limine, systemd-boot or GRUB; the file is
+backed up first; on Limine into the existing `KERNEL_CMDLINE[default]="..."` or `+="..."` line, never an extra appended line,
+which ends up as text; the kernel treats `nvidia_drm` and `nvidia-drm` alike) and
+`/etc/mkinitcpio.conf.d/90-steamify-nvidia.conf` (`MODULES+=(nvidia nvidia_modeset nvidia_uvm nvidia_drm)`), then the initramfs
+and boot entries are rebuilt and checked for the parameters. The early-load drop-in is only there while every installed kernel
+has the NVIDIA modules (mkinitcpio fails on a missing module, and `limine-mkinitcpio` then skips that kernel's boot entry):
+a pacman hook (`/etc/pacman.d/hooks/85-steamify-nvidia-initramfs.hook`, after DKMS, before the initramfs is built) runs
+`/usr/local/libexec/steamify-nvidia-initramfs` at every kernel or driver change and decides again. Turning it off removes
+all of it. The tests are in steamify-cachyos-dev: `tests/nvidia-test.sh` (a fake GPU, a stub `pacman` and `systemctl`, a temp home) and `tests/nvidia-hardware-test.sh` (a real NVIDIA PC).

+## Add as non-Steam game
+
+A sub-option of the Steamify shortcut (`steamgame`, `lib/steam-game.sh`, new
+in 2.5.1, ticked along with the shortcut): Steamify CachyOS in every Steam
+account's non-Steam games (`~/.local/share/Steam/userdata/<id>/config/shortcuts.vdf`,
+binary VDF, edited by `patches/steam-shortcuts.py`), starting the shortcut's
+`run-app`, with the icon rendered as PNG (`~/.local/share/steamify/steamify.png`;
+Steam shows no SVG). Why: while Steam runs, a Steam Controller only talks to
+Steam, which gives its input to the game it started (Steam Input); on the
+desktop through its desktop layout (A = Enter, B = Esc, Y = Space, X =
+Steam's keyboard), in gaming mode as a gamepad.
+
+Steam reads the list only at startup and writes it back on exit, so Steam is
+closed (`steam -shutdown`) for the edit and started again (through
+`steam-desktop-autostart.service` when it's there). That's refused in gaming
+mode and when Steamify itself was started from Steam (`SteamGameId`), since
+closing Steam would end it. An entry for the start script that's already
+there (added by hand, or with the path from before 2.5.0) is updated, not
+added twice; what was done is recorded per account (state `steamgame`:
+`<account>=<appid> added|updated`) and a copy of each list is kept in the
+state directory before the first change. Turning it off (or the shortcut)
+removes every entry for the start script, since it can't start anything
+without it.
+
+Started from Steam, the app re-executes itself without Steam's overlay
+(`LD_PRELOAD` of `gameoverlayrenderer.so` makes Qt abort) and
+`steamify-app.sh` keeps it in the foreground (`SteamGameId`), or Steam
+counts the game as ended right away and stops giving it the controller.
+
+## Update notifications
+
+The **Update notifications** option (new in 2.5.0, ticked by default)

+`~/.local/share/steamify/bin/steamify-notifier` with two user
+units in `~/.config/systemd/user`: `steamify-update-check.timer` (daily,
+`Persistent=`) and `steamify-update-check.service` (also wanted by
+`plasma-workspace.target`, so it checks a minute after each desktop login).
+Nothing stays running while there's no update.
+
+Every Steamify run records its version as `seen` (`notify.state`). The check
+asks GitHub for the newest release; when it's newer than `seen` and not the
+`skipped` version, it shows a notification (`notify-send` with the buttons
+**Open Steamify** and **Skip this version**) and a tray icon (click: open;
+menu: open, skip, remind me later). Closing the notification keeps the
+icon; opening Steamify in any way records the new version and ends it. It
+only runs on the Plasma desktop: gamescope shows no notifications or tray,
+so an update found in gaming mode waits for the next desktop login. It never
+installs anything: the shortcut always starts the newest release, which then
+shows what's new or updated for this install.

+system files that were edited (that name stays: it's how they're found again).
+
+Before 2.5.0 the home folder paths used the project's old name
+(`cachyos-gamescope-boot`). `migrate_layout` (`lib/state.sh`) moves them at
+every start of a newer version, once, and leaves symlinks under the old names

+The systemd units Steamify installs, kept out of the shell code so they can
+be read and reviewed on their own. `lib/*.sh` reads them with `service_file
+<name> [KEY=value...]`, which fills in `@KEY@` placeholders (paths the
+scripts define); the single-file build (`.github/tools/bundle.sh`) embeds
+them. Small drop-ins that only add a line or two to someone else's unit stay
+in the shell code.
