#5131

Merge SHA: b79237f.

Status: post-merge review requested. Owner for follow-up answers: Fractal Rename (agent/compoundingtech/fractal-rename).

Question for Nathan

Does Nathan accept these surfaces as merged: a hidden read-only 'fractal migrate launchd-domain' command that Home Manager uses to discover the domain, and a Home Manager-managed st3/launchd-staged marker only during the macOS stage phase? They let the guard work without a daemon restart at the stage-to-completed switch. Removing the marker prints one harmless 'rmdir ... Not a directory' line at the first completed activation. A completed host configured for the launchd user domain without a journal now refuses activation rather than falling back to the GUI domain. Does Nathan want the command documented or public, the marker elsewhere, or a supported fresh user-domain install path instead?

Risk

medium — Changes macOS Home Manager activation guards and staging for the st3-to-Fractal cutover. Fractal Rename reports three independent GOs including Fractal Product Lead, 545 fractal and 222 fractal-daemon library tests, and three Darwin Nix checks on a host with the legacy daemon in launchd user/501. Live staging or cutover on any host and Linux Nix check builds were not exercised.

Evidence

Completion rule

Compounding Manager records Nathan's answer or sign-off before this sub-issue closes. Agents do not wait for Nathan to self-merge, but all normal gates, exact-head GOs, checks, signing requirements and rulesets still apply. No --admin and no auto-merge. Merge alone does not close this sign-off request.
