Hyprland

zlaunch has full support for Hyprland with native IPC integration.

Features

Setup

exec-once = zlaunch

bind = SUPER, Space, exec, zlaunch toggle

bind = SUPER, E, exec, zlaunch show --modes emojis
bind = SUPER, V, exec, zlaunch show --modes clipboard
bind = SUPER, C, exec, zlaunch show --modes calculator

Automatic Blur

By default, zlaunch applies blur when opening:

hyprland_auto_blur = true  # default

This injects a layer rule via Hyprland IPC:

layerrule = blur on,match:class zlaunch

Manual Blur Configuration

If you disable auto-blur, add to your Hyprland config:

layerrule = blur on,match:class zlaunch
layerrule = blur_popups on,match:class zlaunch
layerrule = ignore_alpha 0.35,match:class zlaunch

IPC Details

zlaunch communicates via the Hyprland socket at:

$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/hypr/$HYPRLAND_INSTANCE_SIGNATURE/.socket.sock

Commands used:

• j/clients — List windows
• dispatch focuswindow address:0x... — Focus window
• keyword layerrule ... — Apply blur rules
