Replace the bespoke flake plumbing (autoImport/mkDarwin/mkHomeManager) with
a flake-parts top-level configuration where every file under ./modules is a
flake-parts module auto-imported by import-tree.
- flake.nix: minimal entry point — mkFlake (import-tree ./modules)
- Each feature is flake.modules.{darwin,homeManager}.<name>; per-feature
kriswill.<tool>.enable toggles preserved verbatim
- modules/darwin.nix realises configurations.darwin into darwinConfigurations
+ toplevel checks; modules/home.nix wires home-manager as a darwin module
- Hosts move to modules/hosts/*.nix (configurations.darwin.<host>)
- Pure helpers (mkProgramOption, kanagawa) kept in top-level lib/ (outside
./modules so import-tree skips them); yazi theme assets moved to _themes/
- Remove autoImport shims, old hosts/, dead overlays/default.nix
Verified: all three darwinConfigurations build (cache-hit parity with main),
kitten builds, nix fmt + deadnix clean, per-host toggles eval correctly.
Every file under modules/ is auto-imported as a flake-parts module, and a
module may be a bare attrset or a function. These 32 files destructured no
module args, so the leading `{ ... }:` bound nothing and was a pure no-op.
Removing it leaves the attrset directly. nix fmt also normalized the direnv
overlay's overrideAttrs to multi-line.
Directories under modules/home-manager/ that held only a default.nix with no supporting files (zk, podman-desktop, neovide, tmux, neovim, karabiner, ghostty) are now flat <name>.nix files. Dirs are reserved for modules that bundle adjacent config (firefox/user.js, kitty/*.conf, yazi/_themes, etc.). All symlink sources are homeDirectory-based absolutes, so moving the files up one level is safe. Also removed leftover empty mixins/ dirs from the refactor.
…import-tree The Dendritic refactor dropped lib.autoImport, mkDarwin, and mkHomeManager; discovery is now flake-parts + import-tree over ./modules. Update the overview, file-organization tree, custom-lib section, module-add and package-add steps, the module-pattern reference (nh path), and unfree handling to match.

nix-darwin has no programs.* for most of these tools, so port them the way
the rest of the repo already does (cf. tmux/zsh/yazi): static config lives in
the stow tree (home/) and the /nix/store-derived bits are generated and linked
during activation. The shell integrations (fzf/zoxide/direnv/hstr) already live
in the stow zshrc, so only the FZF_* env vars needed re-adding there.
Moved out of modules/home-manager/core.nix (now deleted) into system-level
modules/darwin/<feature>.nix + home/<pkg> stow packages:
git/gh modules/darwin/git.nix + home/git, home/gh (bare-name
helpers, no stale store paths)
ssh modules/darwin/ssh.nix + home/ssh
zk modules/darwin/zk.nix
diffnav modules/darwin/diffnav.nix installs a delta wrapped with the
kanagawa theme (matches HM's
finalPackage; diffnav bundles its
own delta and is unaffected)
kitty modules/darwin/kitty.nix + home/kitty
neovide modules/darwin/neovide.nix toggle only; pkg is per-host
direnv modules/darwin/direnv.nix + home/direnv; nix-direnv stdlib
linked into ~/.config/direnv/lib
direnv-nom modules/darwin/direnv-nom.nix nom wrapper generated + linked
htop modules/darwin/htop.nix immutable htoprc generated + linked
qmd-sqlite modules/darwin/qmd-sqlite.nix extension-enabled sqlite (hiPrio so
it wins the sqlite3 collision with
neovim's plain sqlite) + qmd link
bat jq nix-index lazygit rmpc fzf go nodejs_24 yamlfmt -> user-packages.nix
FZF_* env vars -> home/zsh/.config/zsh/.zshrc
The home-manager master `kriswill.enable` toggle and core.nix were removed;
home-manager stays wired only for the GUI/per-host modules (brave, firefox,
vscode, podman-desktop, claude-account-selector). All three host configs build
(nix flake check) and the HM->stow config handoff is clean (the old HM configs
were store symlinks HM removes on switch, then stow/activation redeploys).
flake.lock: `nix flake update` bumps nixpkgs, home-manager and yazi-plugins.
This is a closure no-op for host k -- the new lock evaluates to the identical
darwin-system derivation (verified: same .drv d15di5x4..., same output
axiznxg2...). It is included so future builds and the other hosts track the
newer inputs.
nvd diff -- previous generation (system-184, pre-migration) -> this commit's
closure (== the running gen-185 system). The Selection-state / Added / Removed
sections are this port (note the hm_* generated configs removed and the
delta-wrapped/delta-config -> delta-kanagawa swap); the Version changes are the
already-committed af761b8 nixpkgs bump that the pre-port generation had not yet
realized.

Completes the migration. The home-manager bridge, flake input, and the last runtime hook are gone; the repo is now pure nix-darwin + the GNU Stow tree under home/. - flake.nix: drop the home-manager input (flake.lock: removed the home-manager and home-manager/nixpkgs nodes). - modules/home.nix deleted -- the darwin <- home-manager bridge. - modules/darwin/core.nix: drop pkgs.home-manager from environment.systemPackages. - home/zsh/.config/zsh/.zshrc: drop the hm-session-vars.sh source line. - AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md updated to describe a darwin-only repo (no home.nix, no modules/home-manager/, no mkOutOfStoreSymlink mechanism). Terminfo is unaffected -- the one real risk. nix-darwin's own set-environment already exports the full TERMINFO_DIRS (the Ghostty.app bundle, the per-user and system nix profiles, and /usr/share/terminfo), so xterm-kitty (in the system profile's share/terminfo) and xterm-ghostty (Ghostty's bundle) still resolve without the home-manager session-vars line. Verified with infocmp. nix flake check passes for k, mini, SOC. nvd diff -- previous generation (system-186, home-manager present) -> this commit (system-187, now active). Removes the entire home-manager apparatus plus the deps nothing else in the closure used (man-db, groff, diffutils, inetutils, libpipeline). <<< /nix/store/gf8hnm6w88ng2kajiy4x5n29k55nq0wz-darwin-system-26.11.a1fa429 >>> /run/current-system Removed packages: [R.] #1 activation-k <none> [R.] #2 check-link-targets.sh <none> [R.] #3 cleanup <none> [R.] #4 diffutils 3.12 [R.] #5 groff 1.24.1 [R.] #6 hm-modules-messages <none> [R.] #7 hm-session-vars.sh <none> [R.] #8 hm_LibraryFonts.homemanagerfontsversion <none> [R.] #9 hm_Usersk.cache.keep <none> [R.] #10 hm_Usersk.localstate.keep <none> [R-] #11 home-manager 0-unstable-2026-04-24 [R.] #12 home-manager-agent-domains <none> [R.] #13 home-manager-agents <none> [R.] #14 home-manager-applications <none> [R.] #15 home-manager-files <none> [R.] #16 home-manager-fonts <none> [R.] #17 home-manager-generation <none> [R.] #18 home-manager-path <none> [R.] #19 home-manager-source <none> [R.] #20 home-manager.sh <none> [R.] #21 inetutils 2.7 [R.] #22 libpipeline 1.5.8 [R.] #23 link <none> [R.] #24 man-db 2.13.1 [R.] #25 nixos-option <none> [R.] #26 nixos-option.nix <none> Closure size: 613 -> 587 (6 paths added, 32 paths removed, delta -26, disk usage -20.7MiB).
