Move the interactiveShellInit block and the copy function body into
modules/fish/*.fish and pull them in with builtins.readFile, so the
non-trivial fish lives in real fish files (highlighting, fish_indent)
instead of inline Nix strings. The Auto-loader only collects .nix, so
the new .fish files are ignored by it. Rendered config is unchanged.
Move the login-shell switch behind a new modules.fish.defaultShell
option (default false; neogaia opts in). Convert every non-eza alias to
an abbreviation, set preferAbbrs and pin generateCompletions, and switch
the command line to vi-style editing. Cap navigation at four dots and
drop psmem/psmem10/dir/vdir/please. Comment the installed packages.
Translate the CachyOS fish snapshot into a home-manager Module: the
fastfetch greeting, the bat-backed manpager, the done and bang-bang
plugins (from nixpkgs, not a plugin manager), the history/backup/copy
helper functions, and the eza and navigation aliases. Pacman-specific
aliases are dropped or replaced with NixOS equivalents (update ->
nixos-rebuild switch, cleanup -> nix-collect-garbage). Enabling the
Module also makes fish the user's default login shell.
Remove modules/zram.nix — it only wrapped the native zramSwap.enable toggle
without adding anything — and enable zram inline on neogaia instead. Rewrite
the touched comments to describe only the current file content, and record
the in-file-comment convention in CLAUDE.md.
Select the CachyOS kernel per-Host via boot.kernelPackages, enable Intel
microcode and redistributable firmware (ath10k for the QCA6174 wifi), and
move zram behind a toggle Module. Declare the chaotic binary cache in the
base Nix settings (extra-substituters/keys) so the built system fetches the
kernel from nyx-cache rather than compiling it.
Stand up the walking skeleton the rest of the laptop MVI extends and
re-verifies against: the whole neogaia Host evaluates and its system
toplevel builds (nix flake check green).
- flake.nix: hand-rolled flake (no flake-parts). Base nixos-unstable, plus
nixpkgs-unstable and nixos-25.05 for the per-package unstable/stable
overlays, home-manager (nixpkgs followed), and chaotic-nyx (deliberately
not following our nixpkgs, to keep its binary cache usable). checks build
each Host toplevel.
- lib/: trimmed helper lib — the Auto-loader (recursive .nix discovery, no
null-placeholder hack), the host-builder, and the script-from-file helper.
Deps inherited explicitly; no with lib.my, no nixosModules output.
- system/: shared base config — the unstable/stable overlays, the user
option (defaults to alexion, in wheel, drives system + home-manager user
in lockstep), flakes, git, and home-manager as a NixOS module.
- modules/example.nix: Auto-loader / Enable-convention reference Module,
inert until enabled.
- hosts/neogaia/: minimal laptop Host — placeholder filesystems, bootloader,
and hardware profile, all superseded by disko in task 0002.
- CLAUDE.md: project agent instructions with a Gotchas section (nix on the
CachyOS dev host, the chaotic overlay/cache behaviour, tea/Gitea).
