Add a self-expiring override system so specific late-night live events
(2026 World Cup matches) can be watched without the auto-shutdown killing
the PC, without weakening the permanent schedule ratchet:
- shutdown-override-manager.sh (add/list/remove): add is friction-gated
(typed confirmation phrase + 30s delay, max 12h, max 3 windows) and
writes absolute-epoch windows to /etc/shutdown-schedule-overrides.conf.
- day-specific-shutdown-check.sh now skips the shutdown decision inside an
active window (pruning expired entries) and gained a DRY_RUN guard around
rtcwake/poweroff/hibernate for safe testing.
i3blocks shutdown_countdown.sh: show the exact next-shutdown clock time
(not a relative countdown), show the overridden end time in green when an
override is active or will rescue the upcoming shutdown, and make the
skip-dates check fork-free (builtin read loop) so the hot path spawns no
external processes.
install.sh: deploy i3blocks by symlinking each repo file into
~/.config/i3blocks instead of cp -r (the source of silent drift), cd to
the script dir so it runs from anywhere, and chmod +x only *.sh so the
config file stays 0644.
Repair the previously-dead i3blocks regression suite (stale path), update
the shutdown assertion to the new absolute-time output, add hermetic
override coverage, and keep the <=1-exec fork-count guarantee.

setup_dns_blocker.sh turns this PC into a DNS server that serves the
identical /etc/hosts blocklist to the whole LAN with no per-device app,
by feeding generate_hosts_file.sh output into dnsmasq via addn-hosts
(same StevenBlack variant + custom entries + unblocks). Adds status/
refresh subcommands, a daily refresh timer, Restart=always, and logging
to /var/log/dns-blocker/.
Because the ISP router cannot advertise a custom DNS server, a dhcp/
dhcp-off mode makes the PC the LAN DHCP server (static IP via nmcli with
a gateway-ping self-check and safe, always-online rollback), handing out
itself as the DNS server so every device is blocked automatically.
setup_wireguard_ssh.sh gains an allow-dns subcommand that opens DNS (53,
LAN saddr) and DHCP (67) in the single-owner nftables ruleset. The DHCP
accept rule is placed before 'ct state invalid drop' because the
0.0.0.0->255.255.255.255 DHCP broadcast is classified INVALID and was
otherwise dropped. Firewall detection now reads the actual loaded ruleset
(a ruleset can be loaded while nftables.service reads inactive) and avoids
a grep -q/pipefail SIGPIPE false-negative.
Verified end-to-end: Pixel-6a leased 192.168.1.82 with DNS 192.168.1.43;
youtube.com blocked, legit sites resolve. Regression tests added.

Split diet_guard/_gatelock.py, wake_alarm/_alarm.py, and the
usage_report.py/_usage_report_parsing.py pair into focused
sub-modules so every Python file is <= 500 lines, satisfying
test_file_length.py. Install python-kasa into .venv (declared in
requirements but missing after the 3.13->3.14 venv upgrade),
fixing 8 failing smart_plug tests and restoring 100% coverage.
Also includes prior in-progress work from the working tree: the
wake_alarm Progress/View/Hardware field-grouping refactor,
brother_printer query module + tests, diet_guard foodbank/state/cli
updates, new shared coerce/logging_setup helpers, morning_routine
orchestrator tweaks, dwm window-manager config, gaming scripts, and
misc maintenance/digital-wellbeing script updates.

atop's `-P PRC` output inserts the clock-tick rate (HZ=100) between the
`state` and `utime` columns. Both the Python parser and the native C
aggregator read that constant as utime for every record, charging a flat
1 CPU-second per record — so cpu_seconds collapsed to pid_count and
short-lived fork-storm commands (xset, dd, chronyc) topped the CPU table
(xset showed 67h). The old test fixtures lacked the HZ field, so code and
tests agreed on the bug.
- _parse_prc / atop_agg.c: read utime/stime past the HZ field (after+2/+3,
tokens[10]/[11]); bump the length guards accordingly
- restore C/atop_agg (deleted in 89b4f59) under linux_configuration/C/,
where the build path resolves; corrected test fixtures to include HZ
- _atop_agg_binary: fall back to the Python parser when the C source tree
is gone instead of trusting an orphaned cached binary
- add regression tests proving HZ is not summed as CPU
- bundle the in-progress since-last-report multi-day aggregation (segments,
-b/-e bounding, persisted state, window merging) and its tests/conftest
- meta: gate linux_configuration/tests in pytest_changed_packages.py
Verified by running usage_report.py --date 20260604: Top CPU now led by
SkyrimSE; xset/dd/chronyc fall to ~0. C unit tests + full pytest suite green.

- linux_configuration/tests: update script paths after periodic_background/
reorganisation (hosts_file_monitor, makepkg_capped, music_parallelism,
shutdown_timer_monitor, usage_monitoring_installer_efficiency)
- test_i3blocks_efficiency.sh: remove checks for HEARTBEAT_INTERVAL_S and
WARP_POLL_INTERVAL_S constants that no longer exist
- test_pacman_wrapper_security.sh: remove tests 20-21 (builtin time helpers /
external date calls) that are no longer applicable; update path
- generate_hosts_file.sh: add sed unblock rules for delio.com.pl and
loverslab.com to stay consistent with install.sh whitelist
- steam_backlog_enforcer/scanning.py: remove unplayable_reason arg from
logger.info call (too many format args); drop matching test assertion
- steam_backlog_enforcer/tests/test_protondb.py: add
test_unplayable_reason_no_trending_tier to restore 100% branch coverage
on protondb.py line 97 (was previously covered indirectly)
- Move all linux_configuration scripts into two semantic categories:
- single_use/: scripts run once manually (fresh install, fixes, setup)
- periodic_background/: scripts run by systemd timers or daemons
- Preserve existing subdirectory structure within each category
- Fix lib/common.sh source paths for new directory depths
- Fix CONFIG_DIR depth in setup_periodic_system.sh and check_and_enable_services.sh
- Update all references in tests, fresh-install/main.sh, nix modules, and docs
- Fix check_polling_antipatterns.sh false positives (||, regex |, case patterns, jq strings)
- Fix pre-existing mypy exclusion path and type annotations for moved tools/ directory
- Rewrite check_polling_antipatterns.sh using awk (no bash regex loops); add require_serial: true
- music_parallelism.sh + thesis_work_tracker.sh: tighter state-output and
error paths; expanded regression tests.
- hosts-file-monitor.sh + shutdown-timer-monitor.sh: harden against partial
failures, matching new test branches.
- i3blocks persist_common.sh helper improved (consumed by activitywatch /
warp status blocks).
- setup_midnight_shutdown.sh + thesis_work_status.sh: state parsing tuned.
- pacman_blocked_keywords.txt: drop one obsolete entry.
- New test_thesis_work_status.sh regression script.
All six bash regression tests pass.
