Park and restore live windows with their workspace, floating state and fullscreen mode preserved.
Good to know
The shell being down can turn the shortcut into a real close; exceeding maxStack closes the oldest window (default 10, range 1–20).

Hide a live window instead of closing it, then restore it from a shortcut, timeline, or bar icon.
What you can do with Reprieve
Recover parked windows after shell restarts and bring stranded windows back to the current workspace.
Good to know
Recovery is tied to the current Hyprland session; recovered windows with unknown origins return to the current workspace.
Reopen supported browsers and web apps after their original window has gone.
Good to know
Best-effort relaunch only: Chrome, Chromium, Brave, Firefox and Omarchy web apps; this does not restore the original live window.
Choose windows from a recovery timeline, restore all, or permanently close a parked window.
Good to know
Permanent close requires two presses of Delete; clearing history refuses while windows remain parked.
Install recovery shortcuts with a backup and choices for conflicting keybindings.
Good to know
Setup requires consent; custom shortcuts need an alternate, explicit replacement or skipping.
Restore hidden windows by clicking their application icons in the bar.
Good to know
The widget defaults to visible even when idle in v1.4.1; `reprieve bar hide-idle on` restores fading when idle.
Automatically close parked windows after a chosen timeout and see their remaining time.
Good to know
Off by default; 5–120 seconds when enabled. Restoring cancels the timer; older untimestamped entries remain exempt until parked again.
Show all 10
Choose a snapshot flight or winged animation when parking and restoring windows.
Good to know
Snapshots do not survive shell restarts; the first restore of an older parked window uses a plain cut.
Inspect hidden windows, journal health and shortcut conflicts without changing settings.
Good to know
`reprieve doctor` reports problems but does not repair them.
Before you upgrade Reprieve
Newest firstAfter `omarchy plugin update tech.greyforge.reprieve`, run `omarchy restart shell` to load the service and cached QML, then run `reprieve doctor`.
Read the evidence
Disable the conflicting panel with `omarchy plugin disable io.github.avillagran.omarchy-control-panel`, then run `hyprctl reload`; the separate upstream fix is not bundled.
Read the evidence
Run `reprieve bar install` once to place the widget and carry existing settings across.

Start playback and unmute the affected application once in the Audio widget; upgrading does not clear already orphaned mutes.

Replace `reprieve migrate` with `reprieve setup` for Reprieve shortcuts; manage legacy blocks separately because setup no longer migrates them.
Reprieve release history 2
v1.5.2
with v1.5.0, v1.5.1
with v1.5.0, v1.5.1
Undo a park during its animation without a deferred move hiding the restored window again.
Details
Rapid duplicate parks and early undo settle pending moves; redo uses the chosen flight and clears fullscreen before parking. Reopen rows select the intended entry despite timeout sweeps, and newly granted timeout grace survives reloads.
Also: Delete forgets Reopen entries; flight geometry and diagnostics improve; upgrades require a shell restart.
Update to v1.5.2 with `omarchy plugin update tech.greyforge.reprieve`, then `omarchy restart shell` and `reprieve doctor`. Python remains the journal fallback.

Recover an accidentally closed window as the same running application.
Details
`Super+W` parks a live window and `Super+Z` restores it; the timeline and bar offer individual or bulk recovery. These releases add optional auto-close and flights, stop parking from changing mixer mute, and prevent a repeated shortcut or slow-shell timeout from closing the window.
Also: Conflict-aware setup, session recovery, allowlisted reopening, audio cleanup guidance, bar defaults and migration removal.
Reprieve v1.4.1; install with `omarchy plugin add https://github.com/GreyforgeLabs/reprieve.git --enable`. Requires Omarchy 4, Hyprland 0.56+, Python 3, hyprctl, pactl and busctl.
