Hi

This is what I have (since wlc era, haven't tried with wlroots backend)

if ( ! $?XDG_RUNTIME_DIR ) then
     setenv XDG_RUNTIME_DIR /tmp/${uid}-runtime-dir
     if ( ! -d "$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR" ) then
         mkdir "$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR"
         chmod 0700 "$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR"
     endif
endif

# XKB For Sway:
setenv XKB_DEFAULT_RULES   evdev
setenv XKB_DEFAULT_LAYOUT  us,us
setenv XKB_DEFAULT_OPTIONS caps:ctrl_modifier,shift:both_capslock_cancel
