# Project Rules - Wayland Shot

## Scope
- Build a lightweight Wayland-first screenshot tool for KDE Plasma on Debian-based Linux.
- Primary target machine is the user's Lenovo laptop on KDE Wayland.
- v1 scope is `region` and `fullscreen` capture, annotation editing, `copy`, `save`, and `save as`.

## Working Rules
- Prefer KDE-native integration paths first, then fall back to generic portal paths.
- Keep the runtime lean: no heavy background daemon for v1.
- Treat global shortcut support as KDE-first. Document any compositor conflicts before changing the default combo.
- Prioritize stable cancel paths, clipboard robustness, and editor responsiveness over feature breadth.
- Keep packaging simple and Debian-friendly.

## Current Product Decisions
- Preferred stack: `C++ + Qt6`.
- Hotkey target: `Alt+Shift+F12`. KDE may not distinguish left and right modifiers for global shortcuts, so document that limitation explicitly in the app and docs until proven otherwise.
- Out of scope for initial v1: window capture, blur, upload/share, screenshot history, advanced object transforms, cross-desktop guarantees.
