noconnorandClaude Opus 4.8 fd88d8bba2 Add bin/ module: userland CLI tools into ~/.local/bin
New bin/install.sh downloads self-contained release binaries (ripgrep, fd,
bat, fzf, jq) into ~/.local/bin — no sudo, nothing outside $HOME, so they
persist across Kasm redeploys with no reinstall. Statically linked where
available, so they keep working even after the root fs is wiped. Idempotent:
pinned versions already present are skipped.

lib/fetch.sh adds arch detection + tarball/raw binary download helpers.
zsh/zshrc puts ~/.local/bin on PATH; bootstrap.sh runs the module.

# dotfiles
Configures fresh VMs (RHEL-family or Debian-family) with a consistent
environment. Run `./bootstrap.sh` (or curl-pipe it) to apply everything;
each module also runs standalone and is safe to re-run.
## Quick start
On a fresh box, apply everything with one command:
```sh
curl -fsSL https://git.nic-oconnor.com/public/dotfiles/raw/branch/main/bootstrap.sh | sh
```
When piped like this (no local checkout), `bootstrap.sh` clones the repo to
`~/.dotfiles` and runs from there, so `git` must be installed first. Re-running
the command updates the checkout (`git pull`) and re-applies every module.
Override the destination or source with `DOTFILES_DIR` / `DOTFILES_REPO`.
Already have a clone? Just run it directly:
```sh
./bootstrap.sh
```
## Modules
- `zsh/` — installs zsh + oh-my-zsh, drops a managed `~/.zshrc`
(robbyrussell theme, git plugin), and sets zsh as the login shell.
- `git/` — sets git `user.name`/`user.email` and configures
`credential.helper store` (plaintext `~/.git-credentials`, 0600) for
HTTPS auth.
- `bin/` — installs userland CLI tools (ripgrep, fd, bat, fzf, jq) as
self-contained release binaries into `~/.local/bin`. No sudo, nothing
outside `$HOME`, so they persist across Kasm redeploys with no reinstall.
Idempotent: pinned versions already present are skipped. `zsh/zshrc` puts
`~/.local/bin` on `PATH`.
- `mcp-config/` — shared MCP gateway config sync for laptops (LiteLLM /
opencode). Independent of `bootstrap.sh`; see its own README.
`lib/os-detect.sh` provides shared package-manager detection (`dnf`/`yum`
vs `apt`); `lib/fetch.sh` provides arch detection and binary-download
helpers. Both are used by module install scripts.
