Restoration Flow

Running chezmoi init --apply triggers:

1. System package installation (apt)
2. Docker setup
3. AI model pulls (Ollama)
4. All dotfiles applied to ~/
5. CLI tools installed (starship, atuin, nvm, cargo)
6. Directory structure created
7. SSH key generation
8. Docker networks and image pulls
9. Crontab restoration
10. Systemd services enabled
11. AI agent symlinks and skill setup
12. Monitoring configuration

Daily Use

# Edit a managed file
chezmoi edit ~/.bashrc

# See what would change
chezmoi diff

# Apply pending changes
chezmoi apply

# Add a new file to management
chezmoi add ~/.config/new-tool/config.yml

# Commit and push changes
cd ~/.local/share/chezmoi
git add -A && git commit -m "Update config" && git push

Secrets

Secrets are managed via chezmoi templates with promptStringOnce:

• API keys (OpenRouter, Gemini, etc.) → prompted on init
• Database passwords → prompted on init
• SSH keys → generated on each machine, never stored in repo
• GitHub token → configured via gh auth login

Machine Differences

The .chezmoi.toml.tmpl file prompts for machine-specific values:

• Hostname
• GPU availability
• Git email
• Username

Templates use {{ if .has_gpu }} blocks to conditionally include GPU-dependent configs.
