+# MonitorSwitcher — Design Spec
+
+**Date:** 2026-04-09  
+**Status:** Approved
+
+---
+
+## Problem
+
+User has two Lenovo L27qe (2560×1440) monitors connected to two computers simultaneously:
+- **PC1 (DP)** — current machine (Windows 11), monitors connected via DisplayPort
+- **PC2 (HDMI)** — second machine, monitors connected via HDMI
+
+Switching monitor inputs manually via OSD is slow and cumbersome. The switch should happen automatically when the user switches their keyboard/mouse to the other computer, and should also be triggerable via hotkey or tray menu.
+
+---
+
+## Hardware
+
+| Device | Connection to PC1 | Connection to PC2 |
+|---|---|---|
+| Lenovo L27qe #1 | DisplayPort | HDMI |
+| Lenovo L27qe #2 | DisplayPort | HDMI |
+| HP 975 Dual-Mode keyboard | Bluetooth LE (BT1), MAC: `F62EECE9E0DA` | USB 2.4GHz dongle |
+| Logitech MX Anywhere 2S mouse | Bluetooth (channel 1), VID:046D PID:B01A | channel 3 (BT or Unifying) |
+
+When the user presses the **dongle button** on HP 975 → keyboard disconnects from PC1 BT → connects to PC2 via dongle.  
+When the user presses **BT1** on HP 975 → keyboard connects to PC1 via BT.  
+MX Anywhere 2S behaves analogically (channel 1 ↔ channel 3).
+
+---
+
+## Solution Overview
+
+A Python system tray application that:
+1. Watches for BT device connect/disconnect events via WMI
+2. Switches monitor input sources via DDC/CI (VCP code `0x60`)
+3. Supports configurable hotkeys for manual switching
+4. Has a PyQt6 configuration UI with profile management
+
+---
+
+## Profiles
+
+The core abstraction is a **profile** — a named configuration describing which input source each monitor should use.
+
+```json
+{
+  "profiles": [
+    {
+      "id": "pc1_dp",
+      "name": "PC1 — DP",
+      "monitor_inputs": [
+        {"monitor_index": 0, "vcp_value": 15},
+        {"monitor_index": 1, "vcp_value": 15}
+      ]
+    },
+    {
+      "id": "pc2_hdmi",
+      "name": "PC2 — HDMI",
+      "monitor_inputs": [
+        {"monitor_index": 0, "vcp_value": 17},
+        {"monitor_index": 1, "vcp_value": 17}
+      ]
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+VCP value `0x0F` (15) = DisplayPort-1, `0x11` (17) = HDMI-1.  
+Actual values are detected/confirmed at first run via DDC/CI query.
+
+---
+
+## Device Triggers
+
+Each BT device event is mapped to a profile:
+
+```json
+{
+  "device_triggers": [
+    {
+      "name": "HP 975 keyboard",
+      "bt_device_id": "VID&0203F0_PID&6343",
+      "on_connect": "pc1_dp",
+      "on_disconnect": "pc2_hdmi",
+      "enabled": true
+    },
+    {
+      "name": "MX Anywhere 2S",
+      "bt_device_id": "VID&02046D_PID&B01A",
+      "on_connect": "pc1_dp",
+      "on_disconnect": "pc2_hdmi",
+      "enabled": true
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+Both triggers independently activate the same profiles — if either device connects to PC1, monitors switch to DP; if either disconnects, monitors switch to HDMI.

+
+### Component responsibilities
+
+**`core/switcher.py`**  
+- Enumerates physical monitors via `monitorcontrol`
+- Exposes `apply_profile(profile_id)` — sends VCP `0x60` with configured value to each monitor
+- Detects available monitors and their supported VCP input values on demand
+
+**`core/device_watcher.py`**  
+- Runs WMI `__InstanceCreationEvent` / `__InstanceDeletionEvent` watcher in background thread
+- Filters events by BT device ID strings from config
+- Calls `apply_profile()` on match
+- Debounces rapid connect/disconnect events (500ms window)
+
+**`core/hotkey_manager.py`**  
+- Registers global hotkeys via `keyboard` library
+- Each hotkey maps to a profile ID or "toggle" action
+
+**`config/config_manager.py`**  
+- Reads/writes `config.json`
+- Provides defaults for first run
+- Notifies components on config change (simple callback pattern)
+
+**`ui/tray.py`**  
+- pystray icon showing current active profile name
+- Right-click menu: profile list (click to activate), separator, Settings, Exit
+- Left-click: toggle between profiles (if exactly 2 profiles configured)
+
+**`ui/settings_window.py`**  
+- PyQt6 window, 4 tabs:
+
+| Tab | Content |
+|---|---|
+| **Profiles** | Create/edit/delete profiles; per-monitor input selection with dropdown |
+| **Devices** | List of BT triggers; enable/disable; map connect/disconnect to profile |
+| **Hotkeys** | Per-profile hotkey recorder (press key combo to assign) |
+| **General** | Autostart with Windows (registry key), minimize to tray on close |
+

+## Data Flow
+
+```
+[BT device connects to PC1]
+        │
+        ▼
+device_watcher.py (WMI event)
+        │ matches trigger config
+        ▼
+switcher.py.apply_profile("pc1_dp")
+        │ sends VCP 0x60 = 15 to both monitors
+        ▼
+tray.py updates icon label → "PC1 — DP"
+
+[User presses hotkey]
+        │
+        ▼
+hotkey_manager.py

+        ▼

+## Config File Schema
+
+Full `config.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "active_profile": "pc1_dp",
+  "profiles": [
+    {
+      "id": "pc1_dp",
+      "name": "PC1 — DP",

+        {"monitor_index": 1, "vcp_value": 17}
+      ]
+    }
+  ],
+  "device_triggers": [
+    {
+      "name": "HP 975 keyboard",
+      "bt_device_id": "VID&0203F0_PID&6343",
+      "on_connect": "pc1_dp",

+      "enabled": true
+    },
+    {
+      "name": "MX Anywhere 2S",
+      "bt_device_id": "VID&02046D_PID&B01A",
+      "on_connect": "pc1_dp",

+    }
+  ],
+  "general": {
+    "autostart": true,
+    "minimize_to_tray": true,
+    "debounce_ms": 500
+  }
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Error Handling
+
+- Monitor not responding to DDC/CI → log warning, skip that monitor, continue with others
+- WMI watcher crashes → restart watcher thread with 5s backoff, max 3 retries
+- Config file corrupt → fall back to defaults, notify user via tray notification
+- Monitor index out of range → skip silently (handles monitor disconnection)
+
+---
+
+## Packaging
+
+```
+pyinstaller --onefile --windowed --name MonitorSwitcher \
+  --add-data "config/config.json;config" main.py
+```
+
+Produces `dist/MonitorSwitcher.exe` — no Python runtime required on target machine.
