+## 🎯 Scope & Assumptions
+<span style="color:#fbbf24">Goal:</span> Identify **files that directly modify Hyprland config on disk** (or generate files sourced by Hyprland), because those will need updating for Lua.
+
+<span style="color:#a3e635">Out of scope:</span> The new Lua syntax itself.
+
+---
+
+## 🧩 Hyprland Config Entry Points
+**Primary file:** `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/hyprland.conf`
+
+This file **sources**:
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/configs/*.conf`
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/UserConfigs/*.conf`
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/monitors.conf`
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/workspaces.conf`
+
+Also:
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/UserConfigs/UserDecorations.conf` **sources**
+  `~/.config/hypr/wallust/wallust-hyprland.conf`
+
+➡️ Any script that writes these files must be updated for Lua.
+
+---
+
+## ✍️ Direct Hyprland Config Writers (must change)
+These **write/overwrite Hyprland config files**:
+
+### 🖥️ Monitor Profiles
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/MonitorProfiles.sh`
+  **Writes:** `~/.config/hypr/monitors.conf`
+  **How:** `cp` chosen profile from `Monitor_Profiles/*.conf`
+
+### 🎞️ Animations
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/Animations.sh`
+  **Writes:** `~/.config/hypr/UserConfigs/UserAnimations.conf`
+  **How:** `cp` selected animation file into UserConfigs
+
+### 🧱 Window Rules Version Switch
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/update_WindowRules.sh`
+  **Writes:** `~/.config/hypr/configs/WindowRules.conf`
+  **How:** backup + `cp` from `WindowRules-config-v3.conf`, then `hyprctl reload`
+
+### 🎬 Startup Apps (wallpaper switching)
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/UserScripts/WallpaperSelect.sh`
+  **Writes:** `~/.config/hypr/UserConfigs/Startup_Apps.conf`
+  **How:** `sed -i` toggles `exec-once` lines and updates `$livewallpaper`
+
+### 🗂️ UserConfig swapper
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/UserConfigsSwitcher.sh`
+  **Writes:** directory move/rename
+  **How:** `mv` between `UserConfigs` and `UserConfigsBak`
+
+---
+
+## 🧪 Indirect / Generated Config Writers
+These generate **files that Hyprland sources**:
+
+### 🎨 Wallust → Hyprland colors
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/ThemeChanger.sh`
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/WallustSwww.sh`
+
+**Writes/overwrites:**
+`~/.config/hypr/wallust/wallust-hyprland.conf`
+
+**Used by:**
+`Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/UserConfigs/UserDecorations.conf` (sources it)
+
+➡️ The Lua migration must either keep a compatible generated file or switch the generator target.
+
+---
+
+## 🧰 Install/Upgrade Writers (copy/restore paths)
+These **modify Hyprland configs during install/upgrade**:
+
+### 🔧 `copy.sh`
+- Edits `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/configs/ENVariables.conf` (enables hyprcursor)
+- Modifies `~/.config/hypr/configs/Startup_Apps.conf` (quickshell migration)
+- Renames/switches `hyprlock.conf` variants (not Hyprland config, but in same dir)
+- Calls restore helpers below
+
+### 🧱 `scripts/lib_copy.sh`
+Restores/copies:
+- `~/.config/hypr/monitors.conf`
+- `~/.config/hypr/workspaces.conf`
+- `~/.config/hypr/UserConfigs/Startup_Apps.conf`
+- `~/.config/hypr/UserConfigs/WindowRules.conf`
+- `~/.config/hypr/UserConfigs/UserKeybinds.conf`
+- Additional UserConfigs overlay logic
+
+---
+
+## 📟 Runtime‑Only Files (no file writes)
+These **appear to be runtime-only** (no direct file writes detected; they act via `hyprctl`, process control, notifications, etc.):
+
+### ✅ Scripts
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/AirplaneMode.sh`
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/Battery.sh`
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/BrightnessKbd.sh`
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/Brightness.sh`
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/ChangeBlur.sh`
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/ChangeLayout.sh`
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/ClipManager.sh`
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/ExternalBrightness.sh`
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/fastfetch-wrapper.sh`
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/Float-all-Windows.sh`
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/GameMode.sh`
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/Hypridle.sh`
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/KeybindsLayoutInit.sh`
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/keybinds_parser.py`

+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/KillActiveProcess.sh`
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/LockScreen.sh`
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/MediaCtrl.sh`
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/OverviewToggle.sh`

+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/PortalHyprlandUbuntu.sh`
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/RefreshNoWaybar.sh`
+- `Hyprland-Dots/config/hypr/scripts/rofi-emacs-keybinds`

+## 📝 Notes / Follow‑ups
+<span style="color:#f97316">Important:</span>
+Some scripts are **file writers but not Hyprland config writers** (e.g., `install-uv.sh`, `Distro_update.sh`, and the binary `dots-tui-ubuntu-2404`). They don’t touch Hyprland configs but do modify the system.
+
+If you want an **exact “no file writes anywhere” list**, I can do a stricter pass (including temp/status files, downloads, etc.).
