Any Workspace

A visual workspace switcher overlay for the Omarchy Quattro shell. Summon it, type a workspace number, and it jumps there — or moves the focused window to that workspace. It keeps keepLoaded as a lightweight overlay (same pattern as omarchy.reminders) and dispatches straight to Hyprland through Omarchy's hl.dsp.* Dynamic State Protocol, so it works for any workspace number, including beyond 10.

This replaces the old "workspaces beyond 10" flow, which made you type a number blindly into a Hyprland submap banner. Here you see exactly what you're typing in a styled card, and the number is validated before dispatch.

Preview

Usage

The overlay is bound to two keys:

Keys	Action	Prompt
SUPER + ALT + =	Go to workspace	"Go to workspace"
SUPER + ALT + SHIFT + =	Move focused window to workspace	"Move window to workspace"

Type the workspace number and press Enter to confirm, or Esc to cancel (first Esc clears the field, second Esc closes). Clicking outside the card also cancels.

The number is used literally — 0 goes to workspace 0, 10 goes to workspace 10. Non-numeric input is ignored and the overlay simply closes.

How it works

• A keybinding summons the overlay through the bundled bin/any-workspace wrapper:

  ~/.config/omarchy/plugins/pmpinto.any-workspace/bin/any-workspace go-to
  ~/.config/omarchy/plugins/pmpinto.any-workspace/bin/any-workspace move-to

  (each of which calls omarchy-shell shell summon pmpinto.any-workspace '{"mode":"..."}').
• The overlay keeps the digits you type in memory and, on submit, dispatches:

  hyprctl dispatch "hl.dsp.focus({workspace='10'})"
  hyprctl dispatch "hl.dsp.window.move({workspace='10'})"

• The prompt never writes state to disk; it is a pure input → dispatch flow.

Install

Install from the plugin repository:

omarchy plugin add https://github.com/pmpinto/omarchy-any-workspace.git --enable

This clones the plugin into ~/.config/omarchy/plugins/pmpinto.any-workspace/, validates it, and enables it. It must remain listed in the plugins[] array of ~/.config/omarchy/shell.json so the non-first-party overlay is enabled:

"plugins": [
  { "id": "pmpinto.any-workspace" }
]

Update later with:

omarchy plugin update pmpinto.any-workspace

Keybindings

Overlays have no keybinding mechanism, so the Hyprland bind is per-user. Add two bindings to ~/.config/hypr/bindings.lua (free the keys first if your defaults already use them):

hl.unbind("SUPER + ALT + code:20")
hl.unbind("SUPER + ALT + code:21")
hl.unbind("SUPER + SHIFT + ALT + code:20")
hl.unbind("SUPER + SHIFT + ALT + code:21")

o.bind("SUPER + ALT + code:21", "Go to workspace",
  "~/.config/omarchy/plugins/pmpinto.any-workspace/bin/any-workspace go-to")
o.bind("SUPER + ALT + SHIFT + code:21", "Move window to workspace",
  "~/.config/omarchy/plugins/pmpinto.any-workspace/bin/any-workspace move-to")

Pick whatever keys suit you — only the o.bind command needs to match. (The hl.unbind lines disable Omarchy's default SUPER+ALT+=/+= window-resize variants; adjust them to your setup.)

Removal

omarchy plugin remove pmpinto.any-workspace

Requirements

• An Omarchy Hyprland session (the dispatch relies on hl.dsp.*, Omarchy's Dynamic State Protocol dispatchers).
• No extra packages. Dispatch goes through the existing hyprctl.

Plugin architecture

manifest.json                 declares one keep-loaded overlay entry point
WorkspacePrompt.qml           fullscreen scrim + centered card prompt; captures
                              the number and dispatches hyprctl on submit
WorkspacePromptModel.js       pure numeric validation (literal; 0 stays 0, 10
                              stays 10); unit-tested standalone
bin/any-workspace             tiny shell wrapper so keybindings don't spell out
                              the omarchy-shell summon JSON
tests/model.test.js           node:test coverage for the validation rules

WorkspacePrompt.qml is an overlay kind with keepLoaded: true, so the layer-shell window survives between summons within a shell session, exactly like omarchy.reminders. Dismissal goes through the shell host (shell.hide("pmpinto.any-workspace")) so it composes with other overlays.
