This page is the input for the dotfiles pruning/adoption session: for every ~/.config entry it separates what the repo already tracks from what lives only on this box, and sorts the box-only half into adopt / never-track / prune.

Method

Classification is per FILE, not per directory: the tracked unit is a symlink into ~/.omp/dotfiles/. A directory can look "real" (a plain folder, not itself a symlink) while every file inside it is a tracked symlink — niri and gtk-3.0 do exactly that. Conversely a directory can be a whole symlink into dotfiles (lazyvim) and be entirely tracked. So a directory-level verdict lies; only the leaf symlink target is ground truth.

• tracked = a file whose fully-resolved target (readlink -f) is under /home/blank/.omp/dotfiles/.
• box-only = a regular file, or a symlink that resolves elsewhere.

Rerun this classifier rather than trusting the table below:

DOT=/home/blank/.omp/dotfiles; CFG=/home/blank/.config
for d in "$CFG"/*; do
  [ -L "$d" ] && case "$(readlink -f "$d")" in "$DOT"/*) echo "$(basename "$d"): tracked=ALL box-only=0"; continue;; esac
  [ -d "$d" ] || { echo "$(basename "$d"): FILE (top-level)"; continue; }
  tr=0; bo=0; names=""
  while IFS= read -r -d '' f; do
    if [ -L "$f" ]; then case "$(readlink -f "$f")" in "$DOT"/*) tr=$((tr+1)); continue;; esac; fi
    bo=$((bo+1)); names+=" ${f#"$CFG"/}"
  done < <(find "$d" -mindepth 1 \( -type f -o -type l \) -print0 2>/dev/null)
  printf '%s: tracked=%d box-only=%d%s\n' "$(basename "$d")" "$tr" "$bo" "$names"
done

~/.config — tracked vs box-only

Profile/browser dirs (mozilla 5471 files, obsidian 99, FreeTube 56, nirimod 116, google-chrome-for-testing 5) are app state, never tracked, and are omitted as rows. Box-only bulk that is regenerated-by-the-program is named by category, not file-by-file.

Top-level ~/.config files (not directories)

All regular files, none symlinked into dotfiles: starship.toml (prune — starship absent), frank-job-hunt.env (secret tier), kdeglobals, partitionmanagerrc, pavucontrol.ini, cachyos-hello.json, user-dirs.dirs, user-dirs.locale (XDG/desktop state).

Adoption candidates (program passes command -v)

Pre-vetted box-only files worth moving into dotfiles. Authorship is from the file contents, read directly.

File	Program (path)	Authored or default
~/.gitconfig	git (/usr/bin/git)	Authored — single setting line: credential.helper = store --file ~/.config/secrets/gitea (points at the secret tier; adopt the line, never the file it names)
~/.config/bat/config	bat (/usr/bin/bat)	Authored — one line --theme=noctalia
~/.config/lazygit/config.yml	lazygit (/usr/bin/lazygit)	Authored — 28-line custom noctalia color theme
~/.config/micro/settings.json	micro (/usr/bin/micro)	Authored — {"colorscheme":"noctalia"}
~/.config/micro/bindings.json	micro (/usr/bin/micro)	Default — empty {}, no custom bindings
~/.config/flameshot/flameshot.ini	flameshot (/usr/bin/flameshot)	Authored — contrastOpacity=188, startupLaunch=true
~/.config/glow/glow.yml	glow (/usr/bin/glow)	Default — shipped template, all default values (noctalia look comes from the generated noctalia.json, not this file)
~/.config/autostart/Flameshot.desktop	flameshot (/usr/bin/flameshot)	Authored — Exec=flameshot, X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=true

Every ~/.config box-only row above lists each file, so the session can extend beyond these seven (e.g. btop/btop.conf, shelly/* are also installed-program configs).

Never track (box-only)

Reason	Contents
Generated palette expansion	Every themes/noctalia*, */noctalia.*, */colors/noctalia* / Noctalia* (24 files outside app-profile dirs). Machine-written by matugen/noctalia, not hand-authored: the stat -c '%y %n' cluster 2026-10-14 19:05:40.330…40.813 -0700 writes 24 files in one second (alacritty/themes/noctalia.toml at .330212397, btop/themes/noctalia.theme at .334212456, tmux/themes/noctalia.conf at .813219586, …); later re-runs re-stamp singles — bat/themes/noctalia.tmTheme 2026-10-18 17:11:22, niri/noctalia.kdl 2026-10-18 17:36:27, mango/noctalia.conf 2026-10-17 18:23:37. A same-second mass-write is generation, never an edit.
App state / profiles	mozilla (5471), unity3d RimWorld state (235), nirimod (116), obsidian (99), FreeTube (56), google-chrome-for-testing (5); plus per-program state inside tracked dirs: dconf/user, fish/fish_variables, micro/syntax/*+micro/buffers/history, gtk-4.0/servers, cachyos/cachyos-hello.log.
Skills-CLI installs	crush (37), devin (37), goose (37), kimchi/harness (37) skill trees — provisioned by the skills CLI, owned by the store, not this repo. See skills/store-wiring.
Secret tier	~/.config/secrets/ (gitea, hf_token, hf_token_write, kagi_api_key — names only), top-level frank-job-hunt.env, containers/systemd/postgres.env. Never tracked, values never printed.
Trash committed inside the tree	dotfiles/niri/.config/niri/cfg/.AGENTTRASH/display.kdl.superseded — a retired output config committed 2026-10-09, five days before .gitignore:54 gained .AGENTTRASH/ (2026-10-14). Tracked-then-ignored: an ignore rule never reaches an already-tracked path, so the only repair is git rm --cached, done by #41. The rule does match at depth — git check-ignore --no-index -v dotfiles/niri/.config/niri/cfg/.AGENTTRASH/x resolves to .gitignore:54 — so a fresh in-tree trash dir is ignored from birth and this does not recur on its own.

Owned-elsewhere (do not adopt here)

• ~/.config/containers/systemd/franksign-db.container — header: "Installed by infra/setup-dev.sh into ~/.config/containers/systemd/." Owned by the franksign repo; its quadlet, not this box's config.
• ~/.config/systemd/user/fib-watchdog.service + .timer — box-only. ExecStart=/usr/bin/bun src/cli.ts worker with WorkingDirectory=/home/blank/Projects/frank-intelligence-bench. systemctl --user is-active fib-watchdog.timer → inactive. This box holds the only copy. Do not adopt it into dotfiles: ExecStart and WorkingDirectory are the bench project's internals, so that repo owns the unit — land it there and this row becomes "deployed by the bench repo". Until then it is a reinstall risk recorded here, not a dotfiles gap.
• Hygiene finding, fixed 2026-10-20: the enable-symlink ~/.config/systemd/user/default.target.wants/blankpad-desk-autoswitch.service pointed into ~/.omp/wt/de-redesign-20261009/…, a worktree the heartbeat had already reaped — so desk auto-switching was silently off while systemctl --user is-enabled still answered enabled. Relinked to dotfiles/zz-blankpad/.config/systemd/user/blankpad-desk-autoswitch.service and daemon-reloaded; left inactive on purpose, because starting it mid- session applies a desk profile and the box is in use. Law and diagnosis: dotfiles-deploy.

Prune list (owning program absent from command -v)

All verified with command -v <prog> (git resolves to /usr/bin/git; a session alias can mask it, so probe in a clean shell).

Config	Program checked
sway, hypr, labwc, mango, scroll, umbriel	sway hyprland labwc mango scroll umbriel — all ABSENT
wezterm, kitty, foot	wezterm kitty foot — all ABSENT
rofi, helix, cava, ytm-player, starship.toml	rofi hx cava ytm-player starship — all ABSENT
pywalfox, qt5ct, qt6ct, turborepo	pywalfox qt5ct qt6ct turbo — all ABSENT

The first three rows are the expected set (all 14 confirmed absent). My check disagrees with the expected set by extending it: pywalfox, qt5ct, qt6ct, turborepo are also installed-nowhere config dirs and belong in the prune list. Note the orphan dirs cava, rofi, helix, wezterm, qt5ct, qt6ct contain only a generated noctalia palette file — pruning them removes no authored config. crush/devin/goose/kimchi also fail command -v but are the skills-CLI tier above, not this session's prune targets.
