Managing multiple monitors in Hyprland often means manually calculating pixel offsets and reloading configs repeatedly. Hyprmoncfg is a new terminal-based tool that provides a spatial layout editor with drag-and-drop functionality, snapping, and workspace planning - all accessible over SSH when your display is broken.

Unlike existing solutions like Monique, nwg-displays, or kanshi, hyprmoncfg combines a real TUI spatial editor with a hotplug daemon and workspace management in a single tool. Written in Go with just two binaries and no external dependencies beyond Hyprland itself, it offers features like safe atomic applies with automatic 10-second revert, source-chain verification to prevent silent failures, and profile-based layouts that sync across machines via dotfiles.

The tool includes three workspace distribution strategies - sequential, interleave, and manual - that apply alongside monitor configurations. Its source-chain verification uniquely checks that hyprland.conf actually sources the generated monitors.conf before writing, preventing the common debugging nightmare of wondering why changes aren't taking effect. With support for SSH access, atomic operations, and comprehensive monitor configuration options including scale, refresh rate, and VRR settings, hyprmoncfg aims to be the complete monitor management solution for Hyprland users.
