vh 77225b01d6 chore: sweep dead config — thefuck, aider, tmux/oh-my-posh leftovers, nvim starter cruft, dead ignore patterns
- thefuck: remove the empty home_config/thefuck dir left behind after 2026-06-26's
  'drop thefuck'. Its ~/.config link, the ~/homebase venv that held only thefuck and
  its deps, and the thefuck/fuck wrappers were removed from nh3-dev at the same time.
- aider: remove .aider.conf.yml and .aider.model.settings.yml. The only configured
  backend was an Ollama qwq-32b endpoint, and the last session was 2025-03-21.
  Repo-root aider session artifacts were deleted and the aider-chat uv tool was
  uninstalled on nh3-dev.
- stow ignores: delete .stow-global-ignore and home_config/.stow-local-ignore. Their
  patterns were tmux plugins (the tmux config is gone) and ~/-prefixed paths that
  stow never matches, so they only displaced stow's built-in defaults.
- nvim: drop kickstart's vimtutor TEST file and upstream .github templates/CI.
- .gitignore: drop dead patterns (.config/*, /.aider*). Ignore per-machine zellij
  layouts, and guard Claude Code credentials and settings.local.json.

Dangling ~/.tmux.conf, ~/.config/tmux and ~/.config/ohmyposh links were also removed on nh3-dev.

dotfiles

Personal dotfiles. Configs are organized by where they get linked:

Folder Links into Examples
home_root ~ .zshrc, .wezterm.lua, .nanorc
home_config ~/.config nvim, zellij, ghostty, aerospace
windows Windows-only windows-terminal/settings.json
lk-installers n/a helper scripts to install tooling

Linux / macOS (GNU stow)

One-shot, host-aware:

./link-dotfiles          # link only (installs stow if missing)
./link-dotfiles --apps   # fresh box: install all CLI tools, then link

It detects the host (macOS vs Linux), installs stow if missing (Homebrew on macOS; apt/dnf/pacman on Linux), then runs stow home_root and stow --target=$HOME/.config home_config. Re-running is safe — stow is idempotent.

Installing the tools

The configs assume a handful of CLI tools (bat, fd, fzf, zoxide, zellij, nvim, btop, htop, tldr, fastfetch, plus the fzf-git.sh helper). One host-aware installer covers them:

./lk-installers/install-apps     # macOS -> Homebrew; Linux -> apt + upstream

On macOS it bootstraps Homebrew if absent. It's idempotent — re-running only fills gaps. ./link-dotfiles --apps just runs this first, then links.

The zsh prompt and plugins (zinit, Powerlevel10k, autosuggestions, syntax-highlighting, completions, vi-mode, fzf-tab) self-install from .zshrc on first shell start, so they're not part of install-apps.

Windows (PowerShell)

stow doesn't run natively on Windows, so use the PowerShell equivalent. It mirrors stow by creating junctions for directories and symlinks/hardlinks for files — none of which require administrator rights:

pwsh -File .\link-dotfiles.ps1
  • Re-running is safe: already-correct links are skipped.
  • Any real file/dir that would be overwritten is moved aside to <name>.bak.
  • Preview without changing anything: pwsh -File .\link-dotfiles.ps1 -DryRun

The repo stays the source of truth — edit files under home_root / home_config and the linked locations update live.

Windows Terminal

windows/windows-terminal/settings.json is linked into the Terminal package folder (...\Microsoft.WindowsTerminal_*\LocalState\settings.json) by link-dotfiles.ps1. Because it's linked, changes you make in the Terminal UI write straight back into this repo. The settings include the Australis color scheme and the VictorMono Nerd Font Mono profile font; install the font (see below) so glyphs render.

Prompt

zsh uses Powerlevel10k — loaded through zinit straight from .zshrc, with the instant-prompt preamble near the top for fast startup. The theme config lives at home_root/.p10k.zsh (stowed to ~/.p10k.zsh); there's no separate installer — zinit fetches it on first shell start.

PowerShell uses starship (configured separately).

Both expect a Nerd Font v3 (e.g. VictorMono Nerd Font Mono) installed and selected in your terminal for glyphs to render.
