Modern CLI tool integrations

The config wraps or defaults to modern alternatives where available:

Wrapper	Replaces	Tool
cat	cat	bat
ls / ll / la / lt	ls	eza
grep	grep	ripgrep
find	find	fd
curl	curl	curlie
dig	dig	dog
watch	watch	viddy
du	du	duf
top / htop	htop	glances
gdv	vim diff	delta
lg	—	lazygit
ld	—	lazydocker
yy	—	yazi (cd on exit)

Other integrations: fzf, zoxide, mise, navi (Alt+N), delta as git pager, bat as MANPAGER.

Private config

Machine-specific secrets and personal values (SSH key names, API tokens) live in conf.d/private.fish, which is excluded from git via .gitignore. Create it locally:

# conf.d/private.fish — not tracked in git

set -gx MY_API_TOKEN "..."

if status is-interactive
    keychain --eval --quiet your-key-name | source
