Phase 4 — native apps:
- quill/: text editor (monospace, double-buffered, find bar, undo, open/save)
- lens/: image viewer using imlib2 (zoom, pan, rotate, directory nav)
- wm/src/menu.c: launch quill instead of mousepad
- iso/docker/entrypoint.sh: add imlib2 package; install quill + lens binaries
- skykit/template/: developer app template demonstrating the SkyKit API
Phase 5 — file system and search:
- rigel/rigel.c: right-click context menu (open, open in quill, copy path,
rename, trash, properties); Ctrl+F search/filter bar with name highlighting;
F2 rename-in-place overlay; Delete key moves to trash
Phase 6 — distribution:
- .github/workflows/build-iso.yml: GitHub Actions CI that compiles all
components and builds a bootable ISO on every tag push; creates a GitHub
release with sha256 checksums

SkyKit (skykit/):
- Shared palette constants, font setup, and Xlib/Xft drawing utilities
- sk_fill, sk_rect, sk_line, sk_text, sk_text_clip, sk_textw, sk_baseline
- Builds as libskykit.a, consumed by Rigel and future shell components
Rigel (rigel/):
- Native C/Xlib file manager with SkyKit
- Sidebar with 8 bookmarks (Home, Desktop, Documents, Downloads, etc.)
- Editable path bar (Ctrl+L or '/' to activate, Enter to navigate)
- Sortable columns: Name / Size / Modified (click header to sort/reverse)
- Colored type badges: DIR, IMG, SND, VID, ZIP, SRC, PDF, TXT, EXE
- Double-click to open dirs or files (xdg-open)
- Keyboard: ↑↓ select, Enter open, Backspace back, Ctrl+H toggle hidden
- Right-click menu updated: "File Manager" now launches rigel
Text centering fix (deskbar + wm):
- Root cause: draw_str added glyph-specific ext.height/ext.y offset, and
all callers used hardcoded (H-10)/2 magic numbers instead of font metrics
- Fix: draw_str now takes y as a direct baseline; str_baseline() computes
(strip_y + strip_h + ascent - descent) / 2 for consistent centering
- WM titlebar: same fix using font_title->ascent/descent
- Affects: "Orion ▾" button, clock, date, app list, flyout menu items,
letter icons, and all window titlebars
