+# Float + resize (to 781x702) + center the Bitwarden browser-extension pop-out window.
+#
+# Why this exists instead of a window rule: Hyprland's `float`/`center`/`size`
+# rules are "static" — evaluated exactly once, at the instant a window is
+# created — and this popup opens with the generic title "Zen Browser" (same
+# initialTitle/initialClass as the main browser window), only updating to
+# "Extension: (Bitwarden Password Manager) - Bitwarden..." a moment after
+# it's already mapped. By then the static rule has already missed its one
+# chance and there's no field available at creation time to tell the popup
+# apart from a normal browser window. See layout/windowrules.lua and
+# https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/issues/7402 for the same problem class.
+#
+# No socat/ncat is installed, so instead of an event-driven IPC listener this
+# just polls `hyprctl clients` at a short interval with jq (already
+# installed).
+#
+# Dispatch syntax note: Hyprland 0.55+'s Lua config changed `hyprctl dispatch`
+# to take a literal Lua expression calling hl.dsp.* (e.g.
+# `hyprctl dispatch 'hl.dsp.window.center()'`), not the old
+# "centerwindow"-style dispatcher strings. Verified live against the real
+# API in /usr/share/hypr/stubs/hl.meta.lua before wiring this in.
+#
+# Why it re-asserts for a few seconds instead of firing once: right after the
+# popup leaves the tiled layout, Hyprland briefly re-tiles the sibling window
+# to fill the freed space, and during that reflow this popup was observed
+# reporting `floating: false` again for one poll tick — snapping it back to
+# its old tiled geometry. Re-asserting float+center for a short settle window
+# after first detection rides that out. After the settle window it's left
+# alone, so a manual re-tile/move by you later isn't fought.
