A guest sets `vlan` to attach to its host's `br-vlan<id>` bridge, `mac`
to reuse an existing address (else a stable one is derived from its
namespace path and read back via `nix eval`), and `address` for a static
IP (else DHCP). The MAC and address are pinned inside the guest by its
own networkd, the only stable MAC pin for a nested container. A guest
naming a VLAN its host has not declared fails the build with an
actionable message.
The `br-vlan<id>` naming moves into a shared `bridgeName` in the lib, so
the bridge a guest attaches to and the bridge the host emits have one
source.
Introduce `modules.network`, the host-level networking foundation a Host
declares once. A Host states its trunk interface and the tagged VLAN ids to
materialize, and the module emits one systemd-networkd bridge per VLAN, named
by the `br-vlan<id>` convention, plus the host's own management address on a
chosen VLAN's bridge.
The trunk and every bridge set `RequiredForOnline = "no"` so wait-online never
blocks boot on a carrier-less link, and the module owns its own NetworkManager
`unmanaged` guard so enabling it is self-sufficient. Two assertions tie the
management VLAN to the declared VLANs and a management address to a VLAN, so an
address can never be silently dropped.
No host commits an enablement: the only host is a wifi laptop that cannot
present guests as L2 citizens and whose DNS the module's networkd/resolved
would disturb, so the standing enablement waits for the first wired server
host. The build and bridge-name evaluation were verified by enabling the
module ad hoc, and stay reproducible through `extendModules`.
Add a third auto-loaded kind beside the host and the module: the guest, a
reusable definition under guests/ that a host enables like a module and that
realizes its interior as a systemd-nspawn nested container.
Split the shared base config so a guest can stand on it.
base.nix now holds the substrate both bases share — the primary user,
home-manager, and the unstable/stable overlays.
system.nix keeps the host-only machinery, and a new guest.nix is the slim
guest-base: it imports the full modules tree, pins the interior release, and
auto-enables the toolkit bundle and SSH so any guest is workable on sight.
Give modules.ssh a guest flavor.
A host restores its host keys from secrets as before, while a guest sets
hostKeys.restore = false, names no sops files, and self-generates a host key,
so it holds no age key of its own.
The lib grows a guest helper that declares the guests.<path> namespace with an
enable and a backend field.
Only the container backend is built; microvm is a reserved value that trips a
clear build-time assertion rather than silently building nothing.
A sample guest exercises the whole path, and neogaia enables it, so the guest
interior builds through the existing nix flake check seam.
Add modules.toolkit, an aggregator that enables fish, tmux, nvim, git,
and direnv as one unit, and makes fish the login shell, so any Host or
Guest shell feels identical. Each member is set via mkDefault, so a Host
can still override any single piece while the one flag brings up the
whole bundle.
neogaia now enables the bundle as a single line in place of its five
individual enables and its explicit default-shell line, keeping the Host
a flat checklist.
Also lands the domain model, ADR 0006, and the guests spec: the toolkit
is the first piece of the wider guests work, and the guest-base will
auto-enable this bundle.
The .claude specs and tasks have been distilled into the notes vault, so
remove the 37 consumed files. Trim the CLAUDE.md gotchas to their
project-specific residue: drop the entries now captured as general notes,
and fix the two references that pointed at the deleted specs.
Source the wiki and consume skills from the skills flake, placing them
globally so they are active in every project. wiki reads the personal
Obsidian vault read-only, and consume mines a source into it, pairing
with the Obsidian vault this branch installs.
Set NIXOS_OZONE_WL in the compositor env so Chromium and Electron
wrappers select native Wayland rather than XWayland, which blurs at this
DPI. Deliver it through Hyprland's env directive because UWSM starts the
session without the shell profile home-manager's sessionVariables rely
on.
Add a standalone modules.desktop.obsidian module and enable it on
neogaia. Give it a waybar window-rewrite icon so its windows show a
recognisable glyph on the workspace indicator.
Apply a codebase-wide comment audit against the comment conventions:
split banned semicolons and multi-sentence lines into one sentence per
line, cut cross-file and history narration, trim file-top headers to a
single purpose line, and drop verbosity that did not earn its place.
Prose docs (CLAUDE.md, install.md) get the same one-sentence-per-line
and no-semicolon treatment.
The greeting always drew the full NixOS logo beside the info block,
which overflows in a narrow terminal. Choose the logo by column count:
the full logo when it fits, the compact one when it does not, and none
below that.
Left at auto, Firefox reads the panel's 1.5x and inflates its whole
chrome while point-sized apps stay put. Pin devPixelsPerPx a shade under
that so the UI and pages match without dropping to a too-small 1:1.
The graphical layer inherited Stylix's default font sizes, which read
oversized on this display. Step them down a point across applications,
desktop, popups, and the terminal.
home.sessionVariables (XCURSOR_THEME/XCURSOR_SIZE from home.pointerCursor)
land in hm-session-vars.sh, which only a login shell sources. UWSM starts
the graphical session without it, so Hyprland never saw the theme and drew
its built-in cursor instead of the configured Bibata-Modern-Ice.
Declare the cursor through Hyprland's own env directive, read at compositor
startup regardless of the shell profile, sourced from config.stylix.cursor
so the theme and size stay defined in one place.
Route the volume and brightness keys through swayosd-client, which raises
a transient on-screen popup that auto-hides a moment after the last press,
so the level is visible while adjusting without a permanent widget. A new
osd module runs the server for the graphical session and makes the
backlight node group-writable so it dims without root.
Supersedes the plain brightnessctl binds, whose control swayosd bundles.
Bind XF86MonBrightnessUp/Down to brightnessctl in the repeat-while-held
block, mirroring the volume keys. A new brightness module installs
brightnessctl's udev rule and adds the user to the video group so the
backlight can be dimmed without root.
Stylix's Nord Firefox Color mapping paints the selected address-bar result in
base04, a near-white grey, against base05 text — light on light, so the text
of the highlighted result is illegible. Override that one highlight to the Nord
selection grey (base03), derived from the same Stylix scheme, restoring
contrast without touching the rest of the theme.
Firefox disables profile-sideloaded extensions by default, so the Firefox
Color add-on that carries the Nord chrome theme installed but stayed disabled
and the chrome kept its default look. Set extensions.autoDisableScopes = 0 so
it enables on detection; the policy-installed functional extensions are
force-enabled by policy and unaffected.
The base Stylix Firefox target themes only fonts and the reader view, leaving
the toolbar and tabs at Firefox's default look. Enable colorTheme so Stylix
recolours the chrome Nord from the shared scheme through its managed Firefox
Color add-on, with no hand-written chrome CSS and no flake input of ours.
Scope ADR 0005's no-pinned-add-on rule to the three functional extensions and
record the signed, Stylix-managed theming add-on as a deliberate exception.
Firefox writes ~/.config/mozilla/firefox/profiles.ini itself on first launch,
pointing at an auto-created random-prefix profile. Home-manager then refuses to
clobber that file and fails the whole activation, so the declarative default
profile — search.json.mozlz4 (DuckDuckGo) and the Stylix user.js — never lands
and Firefox keeps running the stale profile with Google as default and no theme.
Set force = true on the generated profiles.ini home.file entry so home-manager
owns it, deploys the default profile, and Firefox switches to it.
Add Firefox as a single-purpose desktop Module configured entirely through
home-manager's programs.firefox, and fan it out from the desktop aggregator so
any Host with the desktop enabled brings the browser up.
Ship stock mainline Firefox, hardened and de-monetized through locked
enterprise policies (telemetry, studies, Pocket, offer-to-save-logins, the
default-browser check, Firefox accounts and sync, and the sponsored new-tab
surfaces all off). Force-install three extensions by policy, keyed by their
verified add-on ids: uBlock Origin, Proton Pass, and SponsorBlock.
Default search to DuckDuckGo over a lean list: the general-purpose commercial
engines are hidden with metaData.hidden so Firefox does not reconcile them back
in, leaving DuckDuckGo and Wikipedia. Theme the browser Nord from the shared
Stylix scheme against the one profile, and register it as the default handler
for the web-link schemes and HTML.
Record the stock-Firefox-plus-policy-extensions decision as ADR 0005.
The task 0031 commit moved the module files but a mis-staged `git add`
left the option-path rewrites out, so main declared the old namespaces
(`modules.claude-code`, `modules.gitea-axi`, `modules.pi`,
`modules.desktop.hyprlock`/`hypridle`) while CONTEXT.md and ADR 0004
already documented the new ones. Rewrite the paths in the moved and
in-place modules, the neogaia host, and the two live CLAUDE.md gotchas
so the code matches the recorded convention.
Adopt the convention that a Module's option path mirrors its directory
under modules/, with an index file naming the directory's own segment.
- Group agent Modules under modules.agents.*: claude-code (whole
directory), pi (flattened to a file), skills (renamed from
agent-skills), and gitea-axi under an agents/tools/ subgroup. The
agents/ and tools/ folders are pure namespace prefixes with no
aggregator enable.
- Nest hypridle and hyprlock under modules.desktop.hyprland.*, with
hyprland.nix as the index, and update the desktop aggregator.
- Remove the obsolete example Module.
- Record the convention in CONTEXT.md and ADR 0004, and update the
neogaia host, the two live CLAUDE.md gotchas, and the skills Module's
intentional Enable-convention exception comment.
The lt alias walks the tree with -a, pulling the noisy .git directory
into every listing. Bake -I '.git' into it so the git internals are
skipped by default; extra ignores can still be passed at call time.
Add the skills flake as an input and a module that imports its
home-manager module into every host via home-manager.sharedModules,
exposing programs.agents.skills. The global skill selection lives in
modules/agent-skills.nix and is empty for now; per-skill granularity
comes from the flake's own listOf-package option, and the placement
self-gates on the agent harness being enabled.
The ls/la/ll/lt aliases ended with a bare --icons, whose WHEN value is
optional, so a trailing path was parsed as that value: `ls .claude`
failed with "invalid value '.claude' for --icons". Bind it as
--icons=always, matching --color=always.
Add modules.desktop.portals, enabled by the desktop aggregator, pinning the
XDG desktop portal routing explicitly: the three interfaces the Hyprland
portal implements (screencast, screenshot, global shortcuts) go to Hyprland,
and GTK is the default for file dialogs and appearance.
The backend packages already arrive with the Hyprland compositor integration,
so this module owns only the routing, which was previously empty and rode on
the config file the Hyprland package happens to ship. Making it a first-class
module so in-app screen sharing does not depend on that incidental default.
Add a modules.desktop.userdirs module that declares the XDG user directories,
and route the recorder and screenshot tools through xdg-user-dir so their
output folders (Videos/Recordings, Pictures/Screenshots) follow one relocatable
source instead of a hardcoded $HOME path.
Add a wf-recorder module, enabled by the desktop aggregator. Super+Shift+R
picks a region with slurp and toggles a video-only capture (no audio), stopped
with SIGINT so the file finalises, saved to ~/Videos/Recordings. Start and
saved notifications fire via notify-send.
A Waybar custom/recording widget samples the wf-recorder process once a second
and shows a video glyph while a capture runs.
Add a screenshot module wiring grimblast (grim + slurp) through the satty
annotation editor, enabled by the desktop aggregator. Region, active-window,
and full-screen captures each open in satty and, on confirm, land in both the
clipboard and a dated file under ~/Pictures/Screenshots.
Bound to Print / Shift+Print / Ctrl+Print rather than the spec's Super+L
family, whose keys task 0021 already holds for hjkl focus and window movement.
Add a clipboard module to the desktop group, enabled through the
aggregator. Home-manager's services.cliphist runs the text and image
watchers as systemd user services bound to the graphical-session
target, and a rofi-dmenu picker recalls history on Super+Shift+V.
wl-clipboard is on PATH so the shell can pipe to and from the clipboard.
Add a session-lock screen and idle management to the Hyprland-native
subdirectory, enabled through the desktop aggregator.
hyprlock draws through the compositor session-lock protocol, themed by
Stylix, with a centered field and clock. Super+X locks directly through a
guarded launch so the key works without the idle daemon.
hypridle locks on idle and powers the displays off, with tunable timeouts,
and locks before every suspend. Lid-close routes through logind to suspend,
which the pre-sleep lock covers, so the lid lands at a locked screen.
Add a mako notification daemon module to the desktop group, enabled by
the aggregator. Toasts auto-dismiss into history after five seconds, a
do-not-disturb mode ([mode=dnd] invisible=true) suppresses display while
still recording to history, and Super+N recalls the last notification
via makoctl restore. Colors and the popup font come from Stylix's mako
target. The bar-side do-not-disturb toggle and media controls already
live in waybar.nix, so this task adds only the daemon.
Add a rofi module to the desktop group, enabled by the aggregator.
It runs the drun application launcher, bound on Super+R. A session menu
built on the same themed rofi is bound on Super+Shift+X, and every
rofi -dmenu call inherits the Stylix theme, so later utility menus
reuse it for free.
Also give layer surfaces their own fade-in (layersIn and fadeLayersIn)
a touch quicker than the window animation, so the launcher fades in
briskly rather than snapping into place.
The comment 'why not what', self-contained, sentence-per-line rules are
project-agnostic, so they belong in the global agent instructions rather
than this repo's conventions. Genericise the four Nix- and domain-specific
examples to their underlying principles on the way across.
Add a Waybar module to the desktop group, enabled through the aggregator,
showing workspaces with per-application icons plus a clock, MPRIS media
controls, audio, network, battery, and a do-not-disturb toggle.
The do-not-disturb widget drives mako's dnd mode and degrades gracefully
until the notifications module lands. Module glyphs are Nerd Font codepoints
decoded through JSON, backed by a system symbols font.
Add a PipeWire audio server so the bar's volume widget has a running sink to
read and drive.
Narrow the terminal tools excluded from Stylix to nvim alone. nvim keeps
its dedicated gbprod/nord.nvim colorscheme, which is richer than the
base16 mapping Stylix would apply.
tmux and fish are now Stylix-managed. Drop the hand-written Nord colours
from the tmux status bar so Stylix themes the status and pane styles,
keeping the minimal layout (session name plus window list) reapplied
after Stylix so it still wins.
Add Stylix as a flake input and a desktop theming module that resolves a
single Nord base16 scheme across the graphical surface: GTK, Qt, cursor,
and the system monospace font, plus a static Nord wallpaper drawn as a
Polar Night gradient.
Scope the theming to the graphical layer alone. The Stylix targets for
fish (at both system and home-manager level), tmux, and nixvim stay off
so the terminal tools keep their hand-written themes.
