+# Shepherd Launcher - Kiosk Mode Sway Configuration
+# This config makes Sway act as a kiosk environment with a custom launcher
+
+### Variables
+set $launcher ./target/debug/shepherd-launcher
+
+### Output configuration
+# Set up displays (adjust as needed for your hardware)
+output * bg #000000 solid_color
+
+### Idle configuration
+# Prevent screen from turning off (adjust timeout as needed)
+exec swayidle -w \
+    timeout 600 'swaymsg "output * dpms off"' \
+    resume 'swaymsg "output * dpms on"'
+
+### Input configuration
+# Disable touchpad/mouse acceleration if needed
+input type:pointer {
+    accel_profile flat
+}
+
+### Key bindings - HEAVILY RESTRICTED for kiosk mode
+
+# Disable ALL default Sway keybindings by not setting a modifier
+# This prevents users from opening terminals, switching workspaces, etc.
+
+# Disable TTY switching (Ctrl+Alt+F1-F12)
+# This is handled by disabling VT switching at the kernel/systemd level
+# Add this to kernel parameters: vt.handoff=0
+# Or in /etc/systemd/logind.conf: NAutoVTs=0 and ReserveVT=0
+
+# Emergency exit for admin (Super+Shift+Escape) - REMOVE IN PRODUCTION
+bindsym Mod4+Shift+Escape exit
+
+### Window rules for kiosk behavior
+
+# Make all windows fullscreen by default
+for_window [class=".*"] fullscreen enable
+for_window [app_id=".*"] fullscreen enable
+
+# Disable window decorations (no title bars)
+default_border none
+default_floating_border none
+
+# Disable gaps
+gaps inner 0
+gaps outer 0
+
+# Force focus mode - only one visible window at a time
+workspace_layout tabbed
+focus_follows_mouse no
+
+# Prevent window closing via keybindings (no Alt+F4)
+# Windows can only be closed by the application itself
+
+# Hide mouse cursor after inactivity
+seat * hide_cursor 5000
+
+### Workspace configuration
+
+# Use only one workspace for true kiosk mode
+workspace 1 output *
+
+### Application launcher
+
+# Start the shepherd-launcher on startup
+exec_always $launcher
+
+### Disable workspace switching
+# No keybindings defined = no switching possible
+
+### Status bar - DISABLED for kiosk mode
+# bar {
+#     position top
+# }
+
+### Additional security measures
+
+# Disable Xwayland if not needed (prevents X11 escape hatches)
+# xwayland disable
+
+# Prevent floating windows (everything fullscreen)
+for_window [floating] fullscreen enable
+
+# Lock down IPC for security (prevents external control)
+# ipc {
+#     socket disable
+# }
+
+### Focused window indicator
+# Since there's no title bar, no visual indication needed
+focus_on_window_activation focus
+
+### Mouse bindings - DISABLED
+# No mouse bindings defined to prevent window manipulation
+
+### Notes for production deployment:
+# 1. Remove the emergency exit keybinding (Super+Shift+Escape)
+# 2. Add kernel parameter: vt.handoff=0
+# 3. Configure auto-login to this Sway session
+# 4. Set up systemd to restart Sway if it crashes
+# 5. Consider using a systemd user service for the launcher
+# 6. Lock down sudo/root access
+# 7. Disable virtual console switching in /etc/systemd/logind.conf:
+#    NAutoVTs=0
+#    ReserveVT=0
+# 8. Consider running as a dedicated user account with limited permissions
