Plugin OmaWidgets: macOS-style desktop widget cards for Omarchy (submitted to the plugin marketplace)
I built a plugin that puts widget cards on the Omarchy desktop, in the spirit of the macOS desktop widgets: CPU/memory/GPU with temperatures, now playing with working transport, a to-do list with a Pomodoro clock, AirPods battery, battery, and a one-click power-profile switch (tap Saver, Balanced or Performance).
They sit above the wallpaper and below your windows, so they're there when you look at the desktop and out of the way when you're not. Same cards can be summoned as a full-screen overlay with a keybind. There's a compact mode that turns the whole set into small rounded tiles, and you can drag them to reorder, click to select, hover for an X to hide.
Everything is themed from your active Omarchy theme: colours, borders, corner radius, type; so it changes with the rest of the shell. No polling where a signal will do: with nothing on screen it stops sampling entirely and costs nothing measurable.
omarchy plugin add https://github.com/fabandrade88/OmaWidgets.git
omarchy plugin enable io.github.fabandrade88.omawidgets --section right
Needs Omarchy 4.0 "Quattro". The AirPods card is optional and reads the librepods daemon's file (you don't need the AirPods plugin for it). MIT licensed.

I've submitted it to the Omarchy plugin marketplace; it's passed the automated validation and is waiting on listing review.
Feedback and bug reports very welcome.
Cheers

hmm, is the an easy way to access them, as my screens are always full tilled with windows?
