The plugin downloads wallpapers and theme files from a remote server, verifies their SHA-256 hashes against a pinned catalog, and applies them via the external `aether` command. The code is transparent, uses integrity checks, and does not execute arbitrary commands or modify system files. The only minor risk is the inherent supply-chain trust in the catalog and remote content, but the verification and local-only HTTP bridge mitigate it.

  • Downloads and applies remote content, relying on the integrity of the catalog and its SHA-256 hashes.
  • Runs a temporary local HTTP server on 127.0.0.1 to serve verified files to the `aether` executable, though it uses a random token and is shut down immediately after use.
How this check works

This review combines the deterministic scan (the rule-based results above) with an independent look at the plugin's code by a language model. The model reads a trimmed sample of the repository's files, the manifest, and the README, then gives a plain-language risk level and a recommendation: install (no notable danger), review (look closer first), or avoid (clearly dangerous).

It runs on the same analyzed commit as the deterministic scan and is strictly advisory — it is not a security guarantee and never blocks a plugin by itself. A human moderator still reviews plugins before they are listed.

Install

Aether Wallpapers

Browse 4K+ wallpapers from omarchy-themes and apply the matching Aether theme from the Omarchy bar.

<p align="center"><img src="preview.png" alt="Aether Wallpapers overlay" width="720"></p>

Choosing a wallpaper runs the same silent Aether apply the site uses. Aether downloads the wallpaper, installs the theme under ~/.config/omarchy/themes/, and activates it.

Install

omarchy plugin add https://github.com/smillunchick/omarchy-aether-wallpapers.git --enable

The bar icon lands in the left section by default. Move it if you want:

omarchy bar move io.github.smillunchick.aether-wallpapers --section left

Use

Open the picker from the bar icon, or bind a key:

omarchy-shell shell toggle io.github.smillunchick.aether-wallpapers

Example Hyprland bind:

o.bind("SUPER + SHIFT + T", "Aether wallpapers", "omarchy-shell shell toggle io.github.smillunchick.aether-wallpapers")

While the overlay is open:

  • Type to search titles, tags, and theme names
  • Use Dark / Light, 4K / 5K / 8K+, and color chips to filter
  • Arrow keys move the cursor; Enter applies the selected wallpaper
  • Escape clears filters, then closes the overlay

Requirements

  • Omarchy with the Quattro shell
  • aether on PATH (already packaged on Omarchy)
  • Network access to https://wallpapers.hel1.your-objectstorage.com for thumbnails, wallpapers, and theme files

The bundled catalog is a compact 4K+ index of the public omarchy-themes collection. Applying a wallpaper downloads the full image and colors.toml through Aether.

Remove

omarchy plugin remove io.github.smillunchick.aether-wallpapers

Removing the plugin does not delete themes already installed by Aether. Remove those with omarchy theme remove <theme-name> if you want them gone.
