dsh-nu replaced every shell command with Nushell and refused bash/pwsh
syntax before it spawned; in practice the refusals were too noisy. Drop
the flake input, install plain dsh, and remove the docs describing the
Nushell-only shell.

Use the CanoKey for daily authentication on idols-ai and shoukei, with
the existing passwords, passphrases and per-host SSH keys as fallback.
- sudo: pam_u2f with a shared origin (pam://ryan4yin) and a Nix-store
authfile built from myvars.canokeyU2fKeys; the primary key is
registered and touch-to-sudo works on idols-ai.
- SSH: one resident ed25519-sk key (application=ssh:ryan4yin) exported
to ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_sk; GitHub tries it before the per-host key.
- shoukei LUKS: fido2-device=auto with token-timeout=10s. Update
nixos-apple-silicon (linux-asahi 7.2.14), whose initrd adds
thunderbolt_apple and reset_apple_cio so USB-C comes up before unlock.
- GPG: scdaemon disable-ccid so it uses pcscd.
- docs/security-keys.md: setup, PINs, enrollment, backup key and
recovery; deduplicate the FIDO notes left by #515.

* refactor(shells): use native Home Manager Nushell environment
Replace the Bash login-shell wrapper and hand-maintained Nushell PATH with programs.nushell.loadSessionVariables and home.sessionPath. Launch Nushell directly from Kitty, Ghostty, and Zed, with the macOS config-home override and Ghostty's vendor autoload directory.

- Add the agent profile (modules/nixos/agent.nix: rootless Podman, linger,
nix-ld) with home/linux/tui.nix as its home role; ruby, kana and
aquamarine use it, so hosts no longer import from hosts/idols-ruby.
- Gate nushell's ~/.secrets source behind modules.shell.secrets.enable,
off on agent hosts.
- Persist the TUI home state on aquamarine's tmpfs root.
- Document host profiles in hosts/README.md; add tests/agent-profile and
drop the x86_64 colmena-parity test, which needs mysecrets.

Add a dedicated IPython module with startup helpers for JSON, YAML, TOML, and CSV plus a small set of common standard-library imports for interactive use.
Disable SQLite history and stop preserving ~/.ipython: interactive sessions can contain credentials and other sensitive data, so that profile state must not survive reboots implicitly.

myNurPkgs evaluated a second nixpkgs just for four packages. Apply the
NUR repo's own overlay instead, so they come from the host's pkgs.
Darwin's pkgs now gets nixpkgsConfig too: it set nixpkgs.pkgs, which
ignores nixpkgs.config, so only myNurPkgs carried the npm mirror there.

Each of these overrode a value nothing else set at a higher priority:
- qemu-guest: btrbk, hardwareTools and cloud-init have no competing
definition on the guests.
- mdns: nixpkgs' sunshine module sets avahi.publish.* with mkDefault.
- computer-use: i18n now sets the time zone with mkDefault.
- darwin terminal: the shared ghostty/kitty font sizes are now mkDefault.
- shoukei: sunshine is mkDefault false in remote-desktop.nix, zram's
memoryPercent is mkDefault 50; supportedFilesystems now merges instead
of discarding the fsType entries other modules add.
- youko: nothing enables docker.
- nixpak: pasta.enable and sockets.pipewire are mkDefault in the shared
modules, sockets.pulse already was.
Every NixOS host's toplevel drvPath is unchanged; on fern and frieren the
terminal font sizes and time zone evaluate to the same values.

nixpkgs packages tuios 0.11.1, the same tag the flake input pinned, so
the extra input (and its nix-fast-build/treefmt-nix lock entries) only

Set the user-level npm/pnpm registry to npmmirror, and make Nix builds use the same mirror through nixpkgs' npmRegistryOverrides and rewriteURL. The configured Nixpkgs policy is also applied to myNurPkgs and Colmena's nodeNixpkgs so NUR packages such as dsh use the mirror while preserving Colmena parity.

Turn on adaptive sync at the output only when a game window opts in, keeping desktop compositing fixed-rate to avoid idle/low-load VRR flicker. The Steam/Proton game rule enables VRR alongside the fullscreen rule.

XWayland/Proton windows can commit before they set a title. Excluding empty titles made Phantom Blade Zero miss the fullscreen rule and stay composited. Keep excluding the launcher announcement popup by title.
VRR is intentionally not enabled here: on-demand VRR caused display corruption in this game and is tracked separately.

* chore(nix): update nixpkgs to e62746b and fix 26.11 breakage
Bump nixpkgs to e62746b and preservation to 00be7f7, then adapt to the removals and renamed options in the new revision: drop the removed boot.initrd.systemd.enable settings, trim the stale emSign CA blacklist on Linux while keeping it for the older Darwin input, and migrate Avahi publishing to settings.publish. Work around sunshine still setting the legacy Avahi options and keep dsh-nu on its tested Nushell 0.115.1. Patch NUR dsh's pnpm call to pass nodejs = null, and update pyclipsync for the stdenv.hostPlatform.system rename.
* chore(nix): refresh flake inputs for 26.11
- update nixpkgs-darwin to the same e62746b revision as nixpkgs
- make dsh-nu follow main nixpkgs and patch its testedWith manifest for the resolved Nushell
- refresh floating inputs; update lanzaboote, tuios, and ponytail
- drop the nixpkgs-2505 and rust-overlay workarounds
- keep pyclipsync on main and simplify the cross-platform CA blacklist
- adopt home-manager's Nushell loadSessionVariables default
* fix(gitea): use ROOT_URL for nixpkgs 26.11
nixpkgs removed the legacy settings.server.DOMAIN option; the existing ROOT_URL already carries the public URL.
* chore(nix): update dsh-nu to 0.7.0
Assisted-by: DeepSeek Harness (deepseek-flash)
The lock bump moves the input from 47c813c to b8e30ec. The guide now says which Nushell the bundle builds against and that its pin warns on divergence, names direct script execution as the replacement for a refused shell handoff, and uses a Nushell stderr redirect in the verification snippet.

* chore(agents): build dsh-nu from its own flake
NUR now keeps only dsh, so a plugin release needs `nix flake update dsh-nu` instead of a NUR package update.
Loading the output preset replaces the GUI-managed Excluded Apps list, so the
exclusions are declared in the preset. Meeting apps apply their own gain
control, and local media playback is better left unprocessed.

* docs(agents): wait for CI in the background
Pushes to a PR often start multi-minute CI runs, and an agent that holds
the turn open on a foreground watch reports nothing until it ends. Require
the pushed head and running checks to be reported first, the watch to run
in the background, and the result to be collected after independent work
or after ending the turn.

* docs(agents): keep the shell-handoff rule platform-neutral
The global rules carry no Windows assumptions: drop the cmd, pwsh, and
wsl handoff examples and keep the POSIX forms plus the dsh refusal.
Assisted-by: DeepSeek Harness (deepseek-flash)
* docs(dsh): keep the shell-swap docs POSIX-only
This repository manages Linux and Darwin hosts, not Windows: drop the
Windows handoff examples and terminal-backend wording from dsh.md. The home
patch also disabled pwsh-sandbox redundantly because dsh-base already
disables that row on POSIX; keep only the active bash-sandbox disable and
verify the composed rows with --dump-config.
Assisted-by: DeepSeek Harness (deepseek-flash)
* docs(agents): keep the global rules runtime-neutral
Global rules are loaded by every agent CLI, so they must not describe one
runtime's behavior. Drop the dsh-specific sentence and wording while keeping
the expectation to prefer Nushell structured pipelines and Python. Runtime
behavior stays documented in home/base/tui/agents/dsh.md.
Assisted-by: DeepSeek Harness (deepseek-flash)
* docs(agents): default shell work to Nushell
Keep the Nushell preference explicit in the runtime-neutral global rules, and
keep runtime behavior in runtime docs. Bash stays a narrow fallback for tasks
Nushell cannot do.
Assisted-by: DeepSeek Harness (deepseek-flash)
* docs(agents): tighten global-rule scope and CI guidance
Keep global rules runtime- and project-neutral, and state that boundary in the
file. Remove the duplicated CI turn-steering text in favour of the Communication
rule, resolve the watch run before watching instead of relying on
gh pr checks --watch alone, name the working-directory parameter generically,
and distinguish a bounded retry backoff from a fixed completion wait.
Assisted-by: DeepSeek Harness (deepseek-flash)
* docs(agents): never estimate a CI run's duration
A CI run has no predictable length, so do not turn "it looks short" into a
reason to wait. The rule is unconditional: report the head and started checks,
start a background watch, and end the turn; collect the result on completion.
The eval scenario now uses an unknown duration.
Assisted-by: DeepSeek Harness (deepseek-flash)
* docs(agents): move maintenance guidance to the README
The runtime/project boundary is guidance for editing the rules, not a rule
agents need loaded every session. The README's Maintaining global rules
section already owns that audience; the loaded rules keep only behavior.

* refactor(dsh): render the home patch from a YAML template
Move the home-layer cordis patch into dsh-cordis.patch.yml, substitute the
bundle and Nushell store paths with replaceVars, and link the rendered file
through home.file.source. This module is the only writer of
~/.dsh/cordis.patch.yml, the current host has no such file, and the profile
patch is a separate layer.
Assisted-by: DeepSeek Harness (deepseek-flash)
* refactor(dsh): install the shell plugin through NUR withPlugins
Replace the local runCommand bundle, peer symlink, and home-layer YAML file
with the plugin package and dsh.withPlugins from ryan4yin/nur-packages#43. The
package wrapper adds a generated --patch overlay after the profile layer, so
dsh no longer writes or manages ~/.dsh/cordis.patch.yml. The NUR input is
temporarily pinned to the PR branch and its commit; point it back at main once
the NUR PR merges.

* refactor(nix): expose the NUR package set as nurPkgs
Pass one per-system NUR package set through specialArgs instead of repeating
nur-ryan4yin.packages.${pkgs.stdenv.hostPlatform.system} at each call site.
The agents, rime, and idols-ruby modules now use the short binding.
Assisted-by: DeepSeek Harness (deepseek-flash)
* refactor(nix): use nurPkgs in package overlays

* fix(dsh): pass the web profile explicitly
The withPlugins launcher prepends --patch, which historically prevented dsh
from auto-expanding "dsh web" into "--profile web". Pass the profile
explicitly in the Just recipe and the verification commands so they work with
both plain dsh and the wrapper.
Assisted-by: DeepSeek Harness (deepseek-flash)
* chore(dsh): pick up the wrapped-profile fix

* chore(dsh): pick up the plugin peer-link fix
Update nur-ryan4yin to the squash merge that links the dsh peer tree at
node_modules/@deepseek-ai instead of nesting it one level deeper. This is the
import failure that stopped nushell-executor from activating after deploy.

The goal is speech recognition on the NPU for vinput, and sherpa-onnx cannot
deliver it: every model it loads keeps a dynamic time axis, which the NPU
compiler rejects outright. Qwen3-ASR and SenseVoice both core-dumped in
vpux-compiler ("Got non broadcastable dimensions pair"), and reshaping the ONNX
inputs does not help because the dynamic dimensions sit inside the graph
(WA-037). Whisper is the only family OpenVINO publishes fully static IRs for,
and its fixed 30 s window is exactly what the compiler accepts.
The host now runs an OpenAI-compatible /v1/audio/transcriptions service backed
by whisper-large-v3-turbo int8 on the NPU: 1.5 s for 11 s of audio against
2.1 s on CPU, with the compiled graph cached in /var/cache so only a cold cache
pays the ~60 s NPU compile. vinput on the desktop sends raw PCM to it through a
small provider script.
Only the NPU driver and compiler still come from the unmerged branch in the
`nixpkgs-npu` input (NixOS/nixpkgs#570230), whose nixpkgs also happens to be
the one where openvino-genai 2026.4.0.0 builds at all.
