* 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.
* feat(agents): use the shell's own dialect; allow 5 s retry backoff

* feat(dsh): make Nushell the only shell

* 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.

* 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
The overlays receive specialArgs too, so they can use the per-system NUR
package set instead of rebuilding the long input path from prev. This leaves
only the definition in outputs/default.nix.
Assisted-by: DeepSeek Harness (deepseek-flash)
* refactor(nix): name the per-system NUR set myNurPkgs
Leave room for consuming another NUR repository later, and match the existing
mylib/myvars naming.
Assisted-by: DeepSeek Harness (deepseek-flash)
* chore(dsh): consume the merged NUR package set
nur-ryan4yin now points at main after ryan4yin/nur-packages#43 was squash
merged; the lock records the merge commit. No branch ref remains.
Assisted-by: DeepSeek Harness (deepseek-flash)
* 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
Update nur-ryan4yin to the squash merge that keeps an implicit profile name
first, so "dsh web" and "just dsh-web" work through the wrapper again.
Assisted-by: DeepSeek Harness (deepseek-flash)
* 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.

Apple Silicon's 16K pages mean FEX cannot run natively and qemu-user cannot
run complex x86_64 binaries. Wire the maintained rowanG077/nix-x86-on-aarch64
runtime (FEX inside a 4K muvm microVM) into shoukei so games, Steam, Wine and
other x86/x86_64 programs work, and let the module own the x86 ELF handlers
instead of qemu-user.
The input is pinned to our fork (ryan4yin/nix-x86-on-aarch64) at the reviewed
commit. Dropping boot.binfmt.emulatedSystems also removes x86_64 from
nix.settings.extra-platforms, so the qemu-user/uncached-x86-build gap is
recorded as WA-022.
- flake.nix: add nix-x86-on-aarch64 input (WA-021)
- hosts/12kingdoms-shoukei/game/: programs.x86-on-arm + steam/wine, 6 GiB VM
- hardware-configuration.nix: drop emulatedSystems/preferStaticEmulators
- apple-silicon.nix: drop the now-redundant box64
- docs: WA-012 resolved; WA-021 and WA-022 added; host README updated
* refactor: consume computer-use packages from NUR
* fix: expose flake inputs to package overlays
Package overlays are imported from two places with different argument
shapes: outputs/default.nix passes a set containing `inputs`, while
modules/base/overlays.nix passes the NixOS module args, where genSpecialArgs
spreads each flake input as a top-level argument. The new NUR-backed
overlays read `inputs.nur-ryan4yin`, so evaluation failed on the module
path. Also expose the whole flake input set as `inputs` in genSpecialArgs.
* chore: bump nur-ryan4yin input
Update the locked nur-packages revision to the current main (nixpkgs
26.05, unused packages removed).
* fix(colmena): expose colmenaHive for the new evaluator
nixpkgs now ships the nix-community Colmena rewrite, whose default
evaluator reads an evaluated colmenaHive flake output instead of the raw
colmena hive. Without it every colmena apply recipe failed with
"does not provide attribute colmenaHive".
Add a colmena input pinned to the same v0.5.0 as nixpkgs and expose
colmenaHive = colmena.lib.makeHive <raw hive>, with the raw hive kept as
an internal binding rather than a flake output of its own.
* chore: clean up stale colmena and aquamarine references
- point the Colmena links at nix-community/colmena after the move
- rename the security-aquamarine-metrics test to youko-metrics (it
already tested youko) and update the outputs README
- drop the commented aquamarine remote-builder example
agenix was pinned to a May 2025 revision, so `just up` could never move
it. Move to the 0.18.0 release tag and collapse its duplicate
nix-darwin/home-manager lock nodes via follows.
* feat!: replace zellij with tuios and switch to ghostty + kitty
Terminal environment overhaul:
- add the tuios flake input (upstream 0.8.5; nixpkgs has 0.8.1) and link
the checked-in config out-of-store; auto-start tuios in nushell instead
of zellij
- remove zellij entirely: both modules, config, README and nushell
completions
- remove foot and alacritty, which lack the Kitty graphics protocol;
nixpkgs-blender tracked the nixpkgs master branch, so every `just up` re-bumped it and started a full Blender/CUDA source rebuild even though Blender stayed at 5.2.2 LTS. Pin it to a fixed rev so bumps are deliberate.
The OIDN cmake override is obsolete: nixpkgs#545542 made setupCudaHook add nvcc to CUDAToolkit_ROOT, fixing the CMake 4.3+ split-root failure (nixpkgs#544701). Dropping it also stops Blender's derivation from depending on nixpkgs-stable.
nixvim has been disabled for a long time (programs.nixvim.enable = false), so
drop the flake input (and prune flake.lock). Port the settings it carried to
Home Manager's programs.neovim: opts and per-plugin setup become an initLua
block plus a plugin list. The catppuccin module already provides the
colorscheme, vi stays unmapped, and the plain system neovim package is
untouched so sudo/nvim --clean keep using it.
Deploy RustFS in place of the retired MinIO and move the S3 consumers over.
- flake.nix / flake.lock / outputs/default.nix: add a nixpkgs-small
(nixos-unstable-small) input for the rustfs 1.0.0 package (with the web
console), instantiated as pkgs-small in genSpecialArgs alongside the other
nixpkgs instances; drop the rustfs flake input. The rest of the system stays
on the default nixpkgs.
- hosts/12kingdoms-youko/homelab-services/rustfs.nix: use nixpkgs' own
services.rustfs module, with package = pkgs-small.rustfs and
environmentFile = the agenix rustfs.env secret.
- caddy.nix: s3.writefor.fun (S3 API) and s3-console.writefor.fun (console,
redirects / to /rustfs/console/).
- secrets/nixos.nix: declare a single rustfs.env (dotenv) secret holding
RUSTFS_ACCESS_KEY / RUSTFS_SECRET_KEY, replacing the separate key files.
- infra/minio -> infra/rustfs: buckets are managed with the hashicorp/aws
provider against the RustFS S3 endpoint; IAM/ILM are applied with rc.
The k3s-test workers never ran (they were stuck waiting for volume
binding) and will be re-added as microVMs, so remove their KubeVirt
configs and everything that only existed for KubeVirt guests:
- hosts/k8s/k3s-test-1-worker-{1,2,3} and their outputs
- lib/genKubeVirtGuestModule.nix and lib/genK3sAgentModule.nix (the
latter was only used by the workers)
- the KubeVirt image upload recipes (upload-vm, upload-idols,
upload-k3s-test) and the kubevirt image package in the idols outputs
- refresh the docs; keep only accurate historical mentions (e.g. the
restic backup path must stay as it is)
xwayland-satellite has no compositor-level clipboard bridging, so X11
clients (WeChat/QQ) and Wayland clients cannot see each other's clipboard.
Add the pyclipsync flake input and enable its home-manager module, which
installs the daemon as a systemd user service bound to the graphical session.
The pinned lanzaboote module still defined boot.bootspec.enable, but nixpkgs now always generates bootspec data and rejects attempts to set that removed option.
Update the lanzaboote input to a revision compatible with the new nixpkgs module behavior.
