new-host

Add New Host

Step 1: Gather Requirements

Ask the user:

Step 2: Run Bootstrap Script

./new-host.sh <platform> <hostname> <arch> [type]

Examples:

./new-host.sh nixos wanderer x86_64-linux wsl
./new-host.sh darwin keqing aarch64-darwin

Step 3: Customize Configuration

Edit hosts/<platform>/<hostname>/system.nix:

NixOS Specifics

• Bare metal/VM: Generate hardware config with nixos-generate-config --show-hardware-config
• Secrets access: Add SSH pubkey to secrets/pubkeys.nix, then agenix -r
• Impermanence: Set codgician.system.impermanence.enable = true

Darwin Specifics

• Homebrew casks: Add to codgician.system.brew.casks
• App Store apps: Find IDs with mas search "App Name", add to masApps

Step 4: Validate & Build

nix fmt
nix flake check
nix build .#nixosConfigurations.<hostname>.config.system.build.toplevel  # NixOS
nix build .#darwinConfigurations.<hostname>.system                        # Darwin

Step 5: Deploy (User Approval Required)

NixOS

nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#<hostname> --target-host <hostname> --use-remote-sudo

Darwin (first time)

./result/sw/bin/darwin-rebuild switch --flake .

Exit Criteria

• Host directory exists at hosts/<platform>/<hostname>/
• nix flake check passes
• Build succeeds
