The repo still tracked `dotfiles/niri/.config/niri/cfg/.AGENTTRASH/display.kdl.superseded` — a retired output config committed 2026-10-09, five days before `.gitignore` grew the `.AGENTTRASH/` rule. Tracked-then-ignored: an ignore rule never reaches an already-tracked path, so `git rm --cached` is the only repair. The working copy joins the rest of today's tracked debt. Found while answering "does this repo still track my noctalia and niri settings", which also falsified two rows of the census committed yesterday: niri is 9 tracked files, not 12; noctalia is 3 authored files against 2672 files of app state and downloaded catalog, not 2/0. The page's own classifier command reproduces the new numbers — it never reproduced the old ones, which is the only reason they were wrong and not merely different. Two laws recorded alongside, both from the same probe: `config.kdl`'s `include "noctalia.kdl"` is not `optional=true`, so a fresh box cannot start niri until the theme pipeline has run once; and `cfg/display.kdl -> desk-1-home.kdl` is desk state a fresh box does not receive — by design, but nowhere written down.

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:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
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](/skills/store-wiring.md). |
|
|
| **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-reload`ed; left `inactive` on purpose, because starting it mid-
|
|
session applies a desk profile and the box is in use. Law and diagnosis:
|
|
[dotfiles-deploy](/tools/dotfiles-deploy.md).
|
|
|
|
## 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.
