niri-ipc

Control the Niri Wayland compositor on Linux via its IPC (`niri msg --json` / $NIRI_SOCKET). Use when you need to query Niri state (outputs/workspaces/windows/focused window) or perform actions (focus/move/close windows, switch workspaces, spawn commands, reload config) from an OpenClaw agent running on a Niri session.

技能说明

Niri IPC

Use Niri IPC through the niri msg CLI (preferred) or by writing JSON requests to $NIRI_SOCKET.

This skill assumes:

You are on Linux with Niri running.
$NIRI_SOCKET is set (usually true inside the Niri session).

Quick start (recommended)

Use the bundled helper script (wrapper around niri msg --json):

./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri.py version
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri.py outputs
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri.py workspaces
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri.py windows
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri.py focused-window

Deeper control

1) High-level helpers (window matching)

Use scripts/niri_ctl.py when you want to refer to windows by title/app_id substring instead of ids:

# List windows (optionally filtered)
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri_ctl.py list-windows --query firefox

# Focus a window by substring match
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri_ctl.py focus firefox

# Close a matched window (focus then close)
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri_ctl.py close firefox

# Move a matched window to a workspace (by index or by name)
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri_ctl.py move-to-workspace firefox 3
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri_ctl.py move-to-workspace firefox web

# Focus a workspace by index or name
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri_ctl.py focus-workspace 2
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri_ctl.py focus-workspace web

2) Full IPC access (raw socket)

Use scripts/niri_socket.py to talk to $NIRI_SOCKET directly (newline-delimited JSON):

# Send a simple request (JSON string)
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri_socket.py raw '"FocusedWindow"'

# Batch requests: one JSON request per line on stdin
printf '%s\n' '"FocusedWindow"' '"Workspaces"' | ./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri_socket.py stdin

# Event stream (prints JSON events until interrupted)
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri_socket.py event-stream

Actions

Pass through Niri actions:

# Focus workspace by index
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri.py ac...

# Niri IPC

Use Niri IPC through the `niri msg` CLI (preferred) or by writing JSON requests to `$NIRI_SOCKET`.

This skill assumes:
- You are on Linux with Niri running.
- `$NIRI_SOCKET` is set (usually true inside the Niri session).

## Quick start (recommended)

Use the bundled helper script (wrapper around `niri msg --json`):

```bash
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri.py version
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri.py outputs
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri.py workspaces
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri.py windows
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri.py focused-window
```

## Deeper control

### 1) High-level helpers (window matching)

Use `scripts/niri_ctl.py` when you want to refer to windows by **title/app_id substring** instead of ids:

```bash
# List windows (optionally filtered)
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri_ctl.py list-windows --query firefox

# Focus a window by substring match
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri_ctl.py focus firefox

# Close a matched window (focus then close)
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri_ctl.py close firefox

# Move a matched window to a workspace (by index or by name)
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri_ctl.py move-to-workspace firefox 3
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri_ctl.py move-to-workspace firefox web

# Focus a workspace by index or name
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri_ctl.py focus-workspace 2
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri_ctl.py focus-workspace web
```

### 2) Full IPC access (raw socket)

Use `scripts/niri_socket.py` to talk to `$NIRI_SOCKET` directly (newline-delimited JSON):

```bash
# Send a simple request (JSON string)
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri_socket.py raw '"FocusedWindow"'

# Batch requests: one JSON request per line on stdin
printf '%s\n' '"FocusedWindow"' '"Workspaces"' | ./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri_socket.py stdin

# Event stream (prints JSON events until interrupted)
./skills/niri-ipc/scripts/niri_socket.py event-stream
```

```bash
# Focus workspace by index
