Notifications

With the Marchyo shell enabled (marchyo.shell.enable = true) the shell owns org.freedesktop.Notifications and adds a notification history and per-sender rules on top of the live toast stack. Without the shell, mako is the notification daemon and these options do nothing.

Every notification is snapshotted into a persistent history (stored under the Quickshell state directory and reloaded on restart), so a toast you dismissed or missed under do-not-disturb is still recoverable. The do-not-disturb bar widget shows an unread count and opens the history centre on right-click; Super+N toggles the centre, and Super+Ctrl+Shift+comma clears the live stack.

Per-sender rules

marchyo.notifications.rules is a list of rules matched on a notification’s appName and/or desktopEntry (exact, case-insensitive; the first matching rule wins). A partial rule only overrides the field it names.

Field	Type	Default	Description
appName	str	""	Match the notification’s application name
desktopEntry	str	""	Match the notification’s desktop-entry id
showToast	bool	true	Show an on-screen toast (false = history only, no popup)
saveHistory	bool	true	Record in the notification-centre history
bypassDnd	bool	false	Show the toast even while do-not-disturb is on
overrideDuration	int	-1	Toast timeout in ms (-1 = default, 0 = never expire)

marchyo.notifications.rules = [
  # Always let Slack through, even in do-not-disturb.
  { appName = "Slack"; bypassDnd = true; }
  # Keep Telegram out of history entirely.
  { desktopEntry = "org.telegram.desktop"; saveHistory = false; }
];
