Krzysztof kuhy Rudnicki 859e6effbb Record what the Pixel run actually proved, and what it did not
Three claims are now measured rather than assumed: the alarm fires from Doze
on time, wakes the screen over the lockscreen, and rings through DND with
zen_mode=1 (player state:started on USAGE_ALARM/STREAM_ALARM(4)).

The dismiss is still unverified. Three defects were found and fixed during the
attempt, but no fix has been confirmed on hardware — the run ended before a
successful tap. Recorded as unverified rather than implied by the commit that
fixed them.

Also recorded: requestDismissKeyguard raises the PIN prompt rather than
silently unlocking, so a no-touch NFC tap was never achievable on a secured
phone. Better stated now than discovered at 06:00.

wake_alarm

A phone-driven wake alarm for an always-on PC. The alarm time is whatever the companion phone app last synced (via the shared crdt_sync transport over a private GitHub repo); a per-minute systemd user timer fires at exactly that time, showing a fullscreen, challenge-dismissed alarm with escalating audio and optional TP-Link Tapo P110 smart-plug control.

Change the alarm on the phone at any hour and the PC follows within ~5 minutes. If the PC does happen to be powered down, a shutdown wrapper hibernates with rtcwake set to the same synced time, as a fallback.

Install

bash install.sh

This installs the package + dependencies into system Python's user site-packages (the systemd units run /usr/bin/python directly, not a venv — see CLAUDE.md), installs and enables the per-minute trigger timer, the systemd-sleep resume hook, the shutdown wrapper that hibernates with rtcwake as a fallback, and (optionally) python-kasa for smart-plug control.

Reading the phone's alarm needs a GitHub token with repo scope, at ~/.config/wake_alarm/sync.json as {"token": "..."}. If that file is absent, a sibling app's ~/.config/{diet_guard,screen_locker}/sync_token is used instead, so one token covers every app syncing through kuhyx/syncs.

Usage

python -m wake_alarm._alarm --demo     # test the alarm window (safe, closeable)
python -m wake_alarm._sync --show      # what alarm time the PC resolves
python -m wake_alarm._trigger --dry-run  # what the next tick would do
journalctl --user -fu wake-alarm-trigger.service  # watch it live

The alarm fires automatically once installed; no manual invocation is needed in normal operation.

Development

python -m venv .venv && .venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt
.venv/bin/pre-commit install && .venv/bin/pre-commit install --hook-type pre-push
.venv/bin/python -m pytest wake_alarm/tests/ --cov=wake_alarm --cov-branch --cov-fail-under=100
