What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides safe management of user dotfiles by routing changes through the chezmoi source repository instead of applying edits directly to the home directory.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Manage dotfiles exclusively via chezmoi commands (list, edit, add, apply, diff, status, cd) to ensure traceability.
  • Prevent direct home-directory edits on managed files, enabling safe re-application of configurations across machines.
  • Use case: when onboarding a new machine, initialize chezmoi, add important config files, and apply changes to reproduce a known good state.

Quick Start

Run chezmoi to edit a file managed by the system, for example:

  • chezmoi edit ~/.zshrc
  • chezmoi apply
