# Debug Qtile ## Goal Separate source/import failures, Qtile IPC failures, service failures, and visual regressions using reproducible evidence before proposing an edit. ## Workflow 1. Discover `QTILE_CONFIG_ROOT`, defaulting to `$HOME/.config/qtile`, and create a temporary diagnostic directory. 2. Collect independent evidence. Preserve failures instead of stopping at the first command: ```sh out="$(mktemp -d "${TMPDIR:-/tmp}/qtile-debug.XXXXXX")" (cd "$QTILE_CONFIG_ROOT" && python -m py_compile config.py) >"$out/compile" 2>&1 || true qtile check -c "$QTILE_CONFIG_ROOT/config.py" >"$out/check" 2>&1 || true qtile --version >"$out/version" 2>&1 || true systemctl --user status qtile.service --no-pager >"$out/service" 2>&1 || true journalctl --user -u qtile.service -b -n 200 --no-pager >"$out/journal" 2>&1 || true qtile cmd-obj -o root -f info >"$out/root-info" 2>&1 || true qtile cmd-obj -o screen 0 -f info >"$out/screen-0" 2>&1 || true xrandr --query >"$out/outputs" 2>&1 || true ``` 3. Classify the failure: - compile/check output means source, dependency, or generated-file drift; - service/journal output means startup or runtime failure; - IPC output means socket, process, or object-path failure; - clean diagnostics plus a wrong screenshot means a visual regression. 4. For a visual regression, invoke `qtile-confirm`. It must take and inspect a screenshot; do not infer layout from widget configuration or coordinates. 5.
