# CLAUDE.md
This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
## Deploy
From within this directory:
```bash
sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .
```
To update flake inputs first:
```bash
nix flake update
sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .
```
To build without switching (dry run / check):
```bash
nixos-rebuild build --flake .#<hostname>
nix flake check
```
To deploy to a remote host:
```bash
nixos-rebuild switch --flake . --target-host <hostname>.local --sudo
```
To list generations:
```bash
nixos-rebuild list-generations
```
## Architecture
This is a NixOS flake repository managing 5 hosts with shared Home Manager configuration.
**Entry point:** `flake.nix` — defines all host configurations via `nixosConfigurations`. A shared `mkHomeManagerConfig` helper wires Home Manager into each host. The `inputs` are passed as `specialArgs` so all modules can access them.
**Two layers of configuration:**
- `hosts/` — system-level (NixOS modules, hardware, services)
- `hosts/modules/` — reusable system modules (`base.nix`, `desktop.nix`, `laptop.nix`, `server.nix`, `personal.nix`, `sway.nix`, `niri.nix`, etc.)
- `hosts/<name>/configuration.nix` — host-specific config that imports from `hosts/modules/`
- `alex/` — user-level (Home Manager modules)
- `alex/core.nix` — base for all hosts (shell, git, tools, starship, fish, neovim)
- `alex/desktop.nix`, `alex/personal.nix` — conditionally included per host
**Hosts:**
| Host | Type | Notable |
|------|------|---------|
| `case` | Laptop | WireGuard, ZeroTier, Syncthing, Sway/Niri |
| `count` | Desktop | AMD GPU + ROCm, Ollama |
| `armitage` | Laptop | systemd-boot, latest kernel |
| `alt` | Proxmox LXC | Media server (Jellyfin, *arr stack, Caddy) |
| `nightcity` | Proxmox LXC | Minimal server |
**Theme:** Catppuccin Mocha (`alex/colours/catppuchin-mocha.nix`)
**Stable channel:** nixpkgs 25.11. Unstable packages are selectively overlaid via the `nixpkgs-unstable` input passed through `specialArgs`.
