The \f[CR]__fish_scrollback_history_*\f[R] universal variables are the
fish\-style source of truth \(em set them via
\f[CR]config\-settings\f[R] → Paths, or \f[CR]set \-U\f[R] directly.
\f[CR]config.fish\f[R] exports the \f[CR]SCROLLBACK_HISTORY_*\f[R]
mirrors from them, because the POSIX wrapper scripts
(\f[CR]paru\f[R]/\f[CR]yay\f[R]/\f[CR]tmux\f[R]/\f[CR]zellij\f[R]
logging and \f[CR]_prune_terminal_logs\f[R]) read the exported names
from the environment.
When the \f[CR]__fish_\f[R] vars are unset, the documented defaults are
exported.
\f[CR]config.fish\f[R] deliberately does not create a global source var,
which would shadow the universal and stop live edits from taking effect.
.PP
Scrollback logs accumulate in \f[CR]SCROLLBACK_HISTORY_DIR\f[R] as
timestamped files.
When the count exceeds \f[CR]SCROLLBACK_HISTORY_MAX_FILES\f[R] the
oldest are pruned automatically on exit.
Use \f[CR]logs\f[R] to browse them interactively.

.SS Pager Hierarchy
\f[CR]$PAGER\f[R] is set to \f[CR]ov\f[R] when available, falling back
to \f[CR]less\f[R].
The \f[CR]less\f[R] wrapper function extends this into a full chain so
anything that calls \f[CR]less\f[R] directly also benefits:

.SS Integrations
.SS Zoxide
\f[CR]cd\f[R], \f[CR]z\f[R], and \f[CR]cdi\f[R]/\f[CR]zi\f[R] are all
mapped to \f[CR]zoxide\f[R]\-backed navigation.
Tab completions for \f[CR]cd\f[R] and \f[CR]z\f[R] blend standard
directory entries (CWD and \f[CR]CDPATH\f[R]) with frecency results so
both familiar and frequently\-visited paths appear in one list.
.SS DirEnv
Automatically loads \f[CR].envrc\f[R] files on directory change.
Takes priority over the auto\-venv logic \(em if a directory is managed
by \f[CR]direnv\f[R], the auto\-venv activation is skipped entirely.
.SS Auto Python Venv
When entering a directory that contains a \f[CR].venv/\f[R], the
virtualenv is activated automatically and deactivated when you leave the
project tree.
.SS WakaTime
Every shell command is reported to WakaTime for time\-tracking.
Set \f[CR]FISH_WAKATIME_DISABLED=1\f[R] to disable without removing the
plugin.
.SS Tailscale
Full tab completion for the \f[CR]tailscale\f[R] CLI is provided via
\f[CR]conf.d/tailscale.fish\f[R].
.SS Done Notifications
Desktop notifications fire when a command takes longer than 10 seconds
and the terminal window is not focused.

.TE
.SS Scrollback History
When running inside Kitty, closing a shell session via \f[CR]exit\f[R]
saves a timestamped scrollback snapshot to
\f[CR]SCROLLBACK_HISTORY_DIR\f[R].
Files are named:
.PP
\f[CR]scrollback_YYYY\-MM\-DD_HH\-MM\-SS.log\f[R]
.PP
The \f[CR]paru\f[R] and \f[CR]yay\f[R] wrappers (auto\-generated in
\f[CR]\(ti/.local/bin/\f[R]) run the command inside a PTY via
\f[CR]script(1)\f[R] so download progress bars are preserved on screen,
then render the captured terminal animation down to a clean static log
via \f[CR]scripts/clean_progress_log.py\f[R] (a small terminal\-screen
emulator that replays cursor movements, collapses repainted progress
frames to their final state, and preserves ANSI color).
If \f[CR]python3\f[R] is unavailable the wrapper falls back to dropping
only the \f[CR]script(1)\f[R] header/footer.
Output is saved to:
.IP \(bu 2
\f[CR]paru_YYYY\-MM\-DD_HH\-MM\-SS.log\f[R]
.IP \(bu 2
\f[CR]yay_YYYY\-MM\-DD_HH\-MM\-SS.log\f[R]
.PP
Before pruning, \f[CR]_scrollback_prune_junk\f[R] silently removes empty
files, files with only a single meaningful line (e.g.\ bare
\f[CR][exited]\f[R] captures), and Kitty tab\-rename prompt captures.
Use \f[CR]exit \-\-no\-log\f[R] (or \f[CR]exit \-n\f[R]) to skip
capture.

Cargo binaries are intentionally appended (lowest priority) to avoid
shadowing system\-installed Rust tools.
.PP
NOTE: While these directories are merged with your system\(cqs existing
\f[CR]$PATH\f[R] values, any executables in the prepended directories
above will override (shadow) system binaries of the same name.
.PP
TIP: This standard PATH setup is gated behind the opinionated component
overrides toggle.
If you prefer to manage your PATH completely manually, you can disable
it by setting \f[CR]__fish_config_op_overrides\f[R] to \f[CR]0\f[R] (or
toggle it off in the \f[CR]config\-settings\f[R] menu).

.SH 3. KEY BINDINGS
The shell uses Vi key bindings (\f[CR]fish_vi_key_bindings\f[R]).
All custom bindings are active in Insert, Normal, and Visual modes
unless noted.
.IP
.EX
Binding Action
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Ctrl+G Insert the head of the previous command\(aqs last path
argument. Equivalent to !$:h in Bash.
Example: previous = \(dqcd /usr/local/bin\(dq
Ctrl+G inserts \(dq/usr/local\(dq
Ctrl+F Interactive history substitution. Type old/new then
press Ctrl+F to apply s/old/new/ to the previous
command. Equivalent to !!:s/old/new/ in Bash.
Example: previous = \(dqecho this is a test\(dq
type \(dqthis is/that was\(dq, press Ctrl+F
result = \(dqecho that was a test\(dq
Ctrl+Alt+U Strip the first token of the current command line,
leaving arguments in place with the cursor at the
start. Useful for quickly retyping the command.
Example: \(dqmkdir new_folder\(dq \-> \(dq new_folder\(dq
Ctrl+Alt+= Evaluate the current command line buffer with
Qalculate! (qalc) and print the result inline.
Requires qalc to be installed.
Example: type \(dq150 * 1.08\(dq, press Ctrl+Alt+=
prints 162
Ctrl+Enter Smart execute: runs commands instantly without
pressing Enter a second time for certain fast\-path
commands (speedtest\-fast, etc.).
\(at\(at FZF inline picker. Type \(at twice anywhere on the
command line to open an fzf picker and replace the
\(at\(at with the selection. The \(at\(at must be typed as its
own token: \(dqcat \(at\(at\(dq triggers it, but \(dqcat\(at\(at\(dq does
not.
Ctrl+Right Accept autosuggestion one word/directory segment
at a time. (Restores Fish 3.x behavior by binding
to nextd\-or\-forward\-word).

Synopsis: jobrunner [\-t <tool>] [<subcommand>] [<name>] [<command>...]
jr [\-t <tool>] [<subcommand>] [<name>] [<command>...]
Runs, lists, inspects, re\-attaches to, and terminates named background
jobs using tmux or GNU screen as the process engine. Unlike bkg and
detach, which discard output, a jobrunner job keeps a live terminal you
can return to later \(em it survives closing the shell, and attach
restores it in any subsequent session.
Run and manage named background jobs. Jobs are detached from the shell
and backed by tmux (preferred) or GNU screen.
If the job name is omitted when starting a new job (e.g. jobrunner sleep 1),
a memorable, random name (like sleepy\-badger) will be generated.
Exit Status:
0 Command succeeded, or no jobs are running
1 Invalid arguments, or the named job does not exist
127 neither tmux nor screen is installed
Notes:
Detach from an attached job with Ctrl\-A then D; the job keeps running.
Commands are executed directly rather than through a shell, so pipes and
redirections must be wrapped explicitly, e.g.
jobrunner run sync fish \-c \(aqa | b\(aq.
Example:
jobrunner run \-n build make \-j8
jobrunner sleep 1000
jobrunner \-t screen run \-n backup rsync \-a ./data remote:/backup/

Synopsis: agents\-init [\-a | \-\-agents] [\-p | \-\-plugins] [\-v | \-\-verbose]
[\-q | \-\-quiet] [\-s | \-\-silent] [\-h | \-\-help]
Scaffolds an AGENTS/ sub\-repository inside a project directory. Creates
a self\-contained git repo for agent specifications, moves any existing
agent\-related files into it, and replaces them with symlinks so the outer
project never tracks agent files directly.
File layout after setup:
AGENTS/AGENTS.md canonical agent spec (real file)
AGENTS/CLAUDE.md real file (if CLAUDE.md existed separately)
or symlink → AGENTS.md (single\-source case)
<root>/AGENTS.md → AGENTS/AGENTS.md
<root>/CLAUDE.md → AGENTS/CLAUDE.md
AGENTS/plans superpowers plans (real dir, .gitkeep)
AGENTS/specs superpowers specs (real dir, .gitkeep)
AGENTS/devlogs agent development logs (real dir, .gitkeep)
AGENTS/.version MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH structure version (seed 1.0.0)
AGENTS/.agents\-tools/ committed version\-bump script + git hook shims
docs/superpowers/plans → ../../AGENTS/plans (always)
docs/superpowers/specs → ../../AGENTS/specs (always)
docs/plans → ../AGENTS/plans (only if docs/plans existed)
docs/specs → ../AGENTS/specs (only if docs/specs existed)
docs/devlogs → ../AGENTS/devlogs (only if docs/devlogs existed)
plans/ and specs/ are merged from every legacy location (docs/<tgt>,
docs/superpowers/<tgt>, and the old AGENTS/plugins/ layout) into the
canonical AGENTS/<tgt>; the AGENTS/plugins/ layer is removed.
Each AGENTS repo carries a self\-contained version bumper wired via
core.hooksPath: a pre\-commit hook bumps AGENTS/.version on every commit
(MINOR when the tracked directory set changes, PATCH otherwise; MAJOR is
manual\-only), and a prepare\-commit\-msg hook appends \(dq(vX.Y.Z)\(dq to the
commit subject. Each shim then chains (execs) to the global/system
core.hooksPath hook of the same name, so this local override does not
shadow global hooks (e.g. ggshield, Git LFS). The script/hooks are
version\-managed from scripts/agents\-tools/ and refreshed when their marker
is stale.
Downstream tooling can read AGENTS/.version directly \(em a changed MINOR
field signals a structure change.
With no flags, runs both \-\-agents and \-\-plugins setup; \-\-agents re\-runs
only the AGENTS.md / symlink step and \-\-plugins only the plans/specs/
devlogs wiring step. Managed paths are added to .gitignore. At the end
of every invocation any uncommitted changes inside the sub\-repo are
auto\-committed so agent\-made edits are captured automatically. Fully
idempotent: a second run produces no output and no new commits.
The commit is local only. Nothing here fetches or pushes: the wrappers
call this synchronously before starting an agent, and a network round
trip there blocks the launch until an unreachable remote times out and
can prompt for credentials with nobody watching. A sub\-repo that has an
upstream is pulled by hand, on the user\(aqs own schedule.
Called automatically by the claude and agy wrappers on every invocation.
Arguments:
\-a, \-\-agents Set up AGENTS/ repo + AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md symlinks only
\-p, \-\-plugins Set up AGENTS/ repo + plans/specs/devlogs dirs + docs/ symlinks only
\-v, \-\-verbose Print all per\-step output (default)
\-q, \-\-quiet Print one summary line only if changes were made
\-s, \-\-silent Suppress all output; errors only (standard UNIX convention)
\-h, \-\-help Show this help message and exit

Synopsis: agents\-vault [\-\-link] [\-\-push] [\-\-restore] [\-\-status]
[\-\-adopt=SLUG] [\-\-remote=URL]
[\-v | \-\-verbose] [\-q | \-\-quiet] [\-s | \-\-silent]
[\-h | \-\-help]
Tracks curated agent memory in a host\-scoped git repository so it
survives losing a machine. Complements agents\-init, which scaffolds the
per\-project AGENTS/ repo: that holds the shareable agent specification,
while this holds the personal memory an agent accumulates.
Memory does not live in any project tree. Claude keeps it under
\(ti/.claude/projects/<mangled\-path>/memory/ and agy keeps its knowledge
store under \(ti/.gemini/antigravity\-cli/, both outside every repository.
Entries are keyed by normalized git remote URL rather than by path, so
the key survives a machine change or a directory rename. The live
memory directory becomes a symlink into the vault, which makes backup
and restore the same operation: on a new machine, clone the vault once
and the first agents\-vault run in any project relinks its memory
automatically. No manifest and no batch restore step are involved.
Only curated memory is tracked. Session transcripts are excluded (tens
of megabytes per project, growing per session). Paths are allowlisted,
never denylisted, so nothing new upstream adds can leak in. The
allowlist runs all the way down, not just at the top: inside agy\(aqs
knowledge store only *.md and *.json files are copied, so a credential
file or a conversation database appearing there is left behind by the
same rule rather than by being known about in advance. Symlinks found
inside the store are neither followed nor copied, so the allowlist
bounds whose files it collects and not merely what kind.
Global state that belongs to no project is tracked as well. Claude\(aqs
global memory directory (\(ti/.claude/memory) is symlinked into the vault
exactly like per\-project memory, and is only linked when one side or
the other already holds something, since that path does not exist by
default. agy\(aqs knowledge store and settings.json are copied rather
than symlinked: agy partitions by conversation UUID rather than by
workspace, so it has no per\-project slice, and its store sits beside
SQLite databases whose WAL sidecars must never be live\-tracked inside
a git worktree. A failed copy is reported but is not fatal, because an
incomplete backup still leaves the agent working.
Because the slug is derived from the remote, gaining, losing, or
rewriting a project\(aqs origin changes it. Each run detects this by
reading the previous slug straight off the live memory symlink\(aqs
target (no guessing) and migrates that entry to the new slug before
relinking, so memory accumulated under the old key is never orphaned.
If both the old and new entries already hold content the migration is
ambiguous and is refused; resolve it with \-\-adopt=SLUG. An entry that
is already at the new key but holds no memory \-\- the shape a fresh
clone always produces, since git cannot track an empty directory \-\- is
moved aside, not deleted, and its origin log is folded into the
migrated entry, so a clone\(aqs provenance survives the rename. The
rename is atomic: a failure at any point leaves the vault exactly as
it was and reports it.
Run with no flags, the command scaffolds the vault, syncs global state,
links the current project, and commits. The other modes are exclusive
and each returns as soon as it is done:
\-\-status is a report and mutates nothing at all. It is answered before
the vault is even scaffolded, so asking what the vault looks like never
creates it, never copies agy state into it, and never claims
\(ti/.claude/memory. A missing vault is reported rather than built.
\-\-restore walks every vault entry and relinks the live memory directory
of each one whose recorded origin path still exists, naming the rest so
they can be rebound by hand. It is a convenience: the ordinary per\-
project run restores a cloned vault\(aqs memory on its own.
\-\-adopt=SLUG rebinds the current project\(aqs entry to SLUG, which is how
a machine\-specific local\-* key or an ambiguous migration is resolved.
SLUG must match [a\-z0\-9._\-]+ and be neither \(dq.\(dq nor \(dq..\(dq \-\- the charset
the slug formula itself emits \-\- since it is interpolated into a vault
path and handed to git mv. The rename and the relink are atomic: if the
live memory directory cannot be repinned onto the new entry the rename
is rolled back, so an ordinary run still finds the original entry.
\-\-remote=URL points the vault at a remote; \-\-push commits, pulls, and
then pushes there. The pull happens only on this path. Committing needs
no remote at all, and both wrappers run this command synchronously
before starting an agent, so a fetch on the ordinary run would block
every launch for as long as an unreachable remote takes to time out \-\-
and would take the local commit down with it, leaving an offline
machine with no backup at all.
Arguments:
\-\-link Scaffold the vault and link this project\(aqs memory; skip
the final commit
\-\-push Commit, pull, then push to the vault remote
\-\-restore Walk the vault, relink what is possible, report the rest
\-\-status Show entries, link health, remote state, and orphans
\-\-adopt=SLUG Bind the current project to an existing vault entry
\-\-remote=URL Set the vault remote
\-v, \-\-verbose Print all per\-step output (default)
\-q, \-\-quiet Print one summary line only if changes were made
\-s, \-\-silent Suppress all output; errors only
\-h, \-\-help Show this help message and exit
Exit Status:
0 Completed successfully
1 Fatal error (vault unavailable, git failure, ambiguous migration,
invalid \-\-adopt slug, nothing committed, or a push that did not
reach the remote)
Returns:
\-\-status prints its report on stdout: the vault path, the remote and
how far ahead of it the vault is, a warning for an unresolved rebase,
then one line per entry reading \(dqlinked\(dq or \(dqorphan\(dq, the slug, and the
file count. Every other mode prints only verbosity\-gated progress
lines, and nothing at all when there was nothing to do.
Notes:
Set __fish_agent_vault_dir to relocate the vault. Set
__fish_agent_vault_autopush to 1 to also push on wrapper launch; it
defaults to off because that push is synchronous and so delays every
launch. With it on, the pull and the push are each capped at 20
seconds, since git has no connect timeout of its own and an
unreachable remote otherwise blocks for minutes. An explicit \-\-push
is left uncapped: it is watched, and it must report what a real
transfer really did. The cap is timeout(1); on a system that somehow
lacks it, autopush says so on stderr and does not push at all, since
an unbounded network call in front of a launch is the one outcome the
cap exists to prevent. \-\-push still works there.
Over ssh the cap is delivered by setting GIT_SSH_COMMAND, which would
silently outrank the user\(aqs own configuration \-\- so it is not set at
all when GIT_SSH_COMMAND is already exported or git\(aqs core.sshCommand
is configured. A vault remote reachable only through a particular
identity file or ssh wrapper therefore keeps it, uncapped, rather than
failing to authenticate for the sake of a timeout.
\-\-adopt rebinds an entry; it does not pin its name. The slug is
re\-derived from the project on every run, so the next ordinary run
migrates the adopted entry straight back to the canonical key, carrying
the memory and the live link with it. That is the point rather than a
wart: adopting is how a mismatched or ambiguous binding is repaired, not
how an entry is given a permanent name of its own.
An entry\(aqs origin file records the project path once, when the entry is
created, and is never refreshed. A project that later moves on disk
therefore keeps a stale path there and \-\-restore degrades to reporting
it as unplaceable rather than relinking the wrong directory. Rebind
such an entry from the project itself with \-\-adopt=SLUG.
The agy knowledge copy is merge\-only. Files are copied into the vault
but are never removed from it, so a fact deleted upstream from agy\(aqs
knowledge store persists in the vault indefinitely, and a restore or a
fresh clone brings it back. Prune such an entry from the vault by hand
if it must really be gone.
Three further variables exist only so the test suite can run against
throwaway directories instead of the real home, and are not meant for
everyday use. __fish_agent_vault_claude_root overrides Claude\(aqs
per\-project directory (\(ti/.claude/projects), which is where the
per\-project memory directories live. __fish_agent_vault_claude_home
overrides Claude\(aqs home directory (\(ti/.claude), whose memory
subdirectory holds the global memory. Those two name different paths
and setting one has no effect on the other.
__fish_agent_vault_agy_root overrides agy\(aqs state directory
(\(ti/.gemini/antigravity\-cli), which is only ever read from.
The last two are not optional niceties. Without them, a test run on a
machine that has a real global memory directory would move it into a
throwaway directory and leave a dangling symlink behind, which is
strictly worse than having had no backup at all.

passes that flag, its alias, or its negation (e.g. \-\-no\-embed\-thumbnail
drops our \-\-embed\-thumbnail; \-\-no\-sponsorblock or your own
\-\-sponsorblock\-remove drops ours). All other arguments pass through
untouched. \-\-help and friends fall through to real yt\-dlp.
Opinionated component (C1): when disabled via __fish_config_op_aliases
(or the __fish_config_opinionated master), passes straight through to
the system yt\-dlp with no defaults injected.
Arguments:

config\-help \-\-help
Opens the offline fish shell configuration manual in the best available
pager. Falls back through ov \-> bat \-> man \-> less \-> cat.
If a section keyword is provided, the pager opens at the first heading
that matches the keyword. Lookup order: docs/fish\-config.index (exact
keyword aliases), then a normalized heading scan as fallback.
When opened with ov a sticky navigation hint is shown at the top of the
screen. Section matching is case\-insensitive. Pass \-\-html / \-w to open
the published documentation website (https://fish.rootiest.fyi/)
in the default browser via xdg\-open \(em deep links to a section aren\(aqt
supported there, so if a keyword is given a note points you to the site\(aqs
search box instead. Pass \-\-man / \-m to open the compiled man page
(docs/fish\-config.1) via man \-l; if a section keyword is given, the
pager opens at the nearest match. Pass \-\-help or \-h for usage and the
navigation key reference.
Arguments:
section Optional keyword to jump to a matching section heading
\-w, \-\-html Open the published documentation website in the default browser
\-m, \-\-man Open the compiled man page via man \-l
\-h, \-\-help Print usage and navigation reference, then exit

.SS config\-settings
.IP
.EX
Synopsis: config\-settings [\-h | \-\-help]
Opens an interactive full\-screen TUI for managing fish config settings
across four pages, without having to type or remember variable names:
Universal \(em opinionated\-category toggles (C1\(enC6) + master, persistent (set \-U)
Session \(em the same toggles, current shell only (set \-g)
Sponge \(em sponge history\-scrubbing settings: delay, successful exit
codes, purge\-only\-on\-exit, allow\-previously\-successful, and
extra sensitive variable\-name tokens
Paths \(em scrollback log directory, scrollback max files, the user\-dots
path, and the user\-dots convenience symlink toggle (Dots link)
Toggle rows use ← / → (or h / l) to step OFF ← DEFAULT → ON; DEFAULT erases
the variable so the master switch / built\-in default applies. On the
Universal/Session pages, Enter on a category row (C1\(enC6) opens that
category\(aqs sub\-category drill\-down page for finer\-grained toggles;
Escape backs out to the category list. Value rows
(Sponge, Paths) use Enter to edit inline; ← / h clears to default. List rows
(e.g. Extra secret, OK codes) accept values separated by commas and/or
whitespace \(em \(dqA, B\(dq, \(dqA,B\(dq and \(dqA B\(dq all yield the same two entries.
Tab / Shift\-Tab cycle forward / backward through pages.
Changes apply immediately \(em no confirm step. Always available regardless of
__fish_config_opinionated state.
The Sponge and Paths pages always write universal variables \(em these are
persistent, set\-and\-forget settings with no per\-session scope. Editing a
scrollback row updates both the __fish_scrollback_history_* source\-of\-truth
variables and the exported SCROLLBACK_HISTORY_* mirrors, so the AUR/tmux/
zellij log wrappers (which read the exported names) see the change in the
running session.
The panel adapts to the terminal width automatically, selecting from four
layout tiers (with a 6\-column buffer on each side before stepping up to the
next tier) and horizontally centering the box. The panel redraws within
\(ti0.3 s of a terminal resize with no keypress required.
COLUMNS >= 90 → 78\-wide panel (most detail)
COLUMNS >= 86 → 74\-wide panel
COLUMNS >= 82 → 70\-wide panel
COLUMNS < 82 → 52\-wide panel (default)
Navigation:
↑ ↓ / k j Move cursor
← → / h l Toggle rows: OFF ← DEFAULT → ON
← / h Value rows: clear to default

.SS kitty\-logging
.IP
.EX
Synopsis: kitty\-logging [install | uninstall | status | dismiss] [\-h]
Manages the fish\-config Kitty scrollback watcher that powers C5 logging.
install symlinks the canonical watcher into the Kitty config dir (so it
always tracks the source) and wires it into kitty.conf via a
sentinel\-marked managed block, commenting out any conflicting active
watcher line to avoid double\-capture. uninstall reverses it. status
reports wiring, installed watcher version, and C5 logging state. dismiss
silences the per\-session setup reminder.
Runtime capture stays governed by the C5 .logging_disabled sentinel, so
disabling __fish_config_op_logging makes the watcher inert without
uninstalling. Install affects new Kitty windows only.
Arguments:
install Symlink the watcher and add the managed block to kitty.conf
uninstall Remove the managed block and the watcher symlink
status Report wiring, watcher version, and C5 logging state
dismiss Stop the per\-session reminder

Synopsis: open\-url [\-s|\-\-silent] [\-v|\-\-verbose] <url>
open\-url \-\-help
Opens a URL (or file:// URI) in the best available graphical web browser,
backgrounded so it never blocks the terminal. Resolves a real browser
binary rather than deferring to xdg\-open, whose MIME dispatch can hand
local text/html files to non\-browser apps (e.g. ebook readers).
Silent by default: prints nothing on success (errors always go to stderr);
\-\-silent / \-s is accepted for explicitness.
Resolution order:
1. $fish_help_browser (explicit override)
2. $BROWSER (validated; errors if not a command)
3. xdg\-mime default handler for x\-scheme\-handler/https
4. First known browser binary found in a built\-in list
5. xdg\-open (last resort)
Arguments:
url The URL or file:// URI to open (required)
\-s, \-\-silent Suppress success output (the default)
\-v, \-\-verbose Print which browser is being launched
\-h, \-\-help Print usage and exit

Synopsis: rand_string [COMPONENTS/MODIFIERS]...
Generates a random, memorable string using a sequence of specified word
categories and formatting modifiers. Words are pulled from curated
plain\-text databases bundled in data/words/.
Modifiers like \-\-separator and \-\-case are evaluated sequentially and
apply only to the components that follow them.
Supported Components:
<category> A bundled word list (e.g. adjective, animal, color, name, noun, verb)
digits=<N> N random digits (e.g. digits=3 \-> 842)
literal=<text> A static string component (e.g. literal=TEST)
Arguments:
\-s, \-\-separator=<sep> Delimiter for subsequent words (dash, underscore, dot, none, or literal chars)
\-c, \-\-case=<casing> Casing for subsequent words (lower, upper, title)
\-h, \-\-help Show usage help
Exit Status:
0 String generated successfully
1 Unknown category or missing word list file
Notes:
Falls back to random choice if GNU shuf is missing, but shuf is
much faster for files with >1000 lines.

.SS repo\-open
.IP
.EX
Synopsis: repo\-open [\-p|\-\-print] [\-r|\-\-root]
repo\-open \-\-help
Opens the web page for the current repository\(aqs origin remote in a
browser (via open\-url). Deep\-links to the current branch when it exists
on the remote, falling back to the remote\(aqs default branch (main/master)
otherwise, and to the current sub\-directory when invoked below the repo
root.
The remote URL is normalized from both HTTPS and SSH/scp forms
(git\(athost:owner/repo.git, ssh://\&..., https://\&...). The web path layout is
provider\-specific; the provider is resolved in this order:
1. git config browse.provider (per\-repo or \-\-global override)
2. Hostname heuristic (github / gitlab / gitea / bitbucket;
codeberg → gitea)
3. Default: github\-style layout
For a self\-hosted host the heuristic can\(aqt classify (e.g. a Gitea or
GitLab instance on a custom domain), set the provider once:
git config browse.provider gitea
Arguments:
\-p, \-\-print Print the resolved URL instead of opening it
\-r, \-\-root Ignore the current sub\-directory; link to the repo root
\-h, \-\-help Print usage and exit
Exit Status:
0 URL opened, or resolved with \-p/\-\-print
1 Not a git repo, no origin remote, or browser launch failed
Returns:
With \-p/\-\-print, the resolved repository URL, printed to stdout
Notes:
Typo abbreviation: open\-repo (expands to repo\-open on space/enter).

.SH 7. CUSTOMIZATION
This section explains how to adapt the configuration to your specific
workflow, including local machine overrides and opinionated component
toggles.
.SS Machine\-local Configuration
Place machine\-specific settings that should not be committed to git in:
.IP
.EX
$__fish_user_dots_path/local.fish
.EE
.PP
\f[CR]__fish_user_dots_path\f[R] defaults to
\f[CR]\(ti/.config/.user\-dots/fish\f[R].
Set a custom location with:
.IP
.EX
set \-U __fish_user_dots_path /path/to/your/dots/fish
.EE
.PP
Typical uses: additional PATH entries, local aliases, hostname\-specific
env vars, work\-specific tool configs.
.PP
For convenience, a git\-ignored \f[CR]user\-dots\f[R] symlink in the
fish config directory tracks \f[CR]$__fish_user_dots_path\f[R] so the
overlay can be browsed from \f[CR]\(ti/.config/fish/\f[R].
It is created if missing and repointed if the path changes.
Opt out by setting \f[CR]__fish_user_dots_symlink\f[R] to a falsy value,
or toggling \(lqDots link\(rq off on the \f[CR]config\-settings\f[R]
Paths page \(em this stops generation and removes any existing link.
It only ever manages a symlink and never clobbers a real file or
directory at that path.
.SS Secrets and API Keys
.IP
.EX
$__fish_user_dots_path/secrets.fish
.EE
.PP
Store API tokens, GPG keys, private credentials here.
This file is never committed.
It is sourced by \f[CR]local.fish\f[R] directly, not by
\f[CR]config.fish\f[R].
.PP
\f[CR]local.fish\f[R] is sourced at the end of \f[CR]config.fish\f[R] on
every interactive session, so it and its companion
\f[CR]secrets.fish\f[R] can override anything set earlier.
.SS Overriding Configuration Variables
Any variable set in \f[CR]local.fish\f[R] after the main config loads
takes effect.
Example: to increase the scrollback history limit:
.IP
.EX
# in local.fish
set \-gx SCROLLBACK_HISTORY_MAX_FILES 200
.EE
.SS Fish Universal Variables
Some settings (\f[CR]fzf\f[R] colors, theme) are stored in
\f[CR]fish_variables\f[R] via \f[CR]set \-U\f[R].
These are machine\-local and git\-ignored.
Do not commit \f[CR]fish_variables\f[R].
.SS Opinionated Components (Minimal Mode)
Every opinionated piece of this config is active by default but can be
switched off through six category opt\-out variables, each evaluated via
\f[CR]__fish_variable_check\f[R].
Set a variable to any falsy value (0, false, no, off, n) to disable its
category; erase it or set a truthy value (1, true, yes, on, y) to
re\-enable.
Unset means enabled \(em except for C5 logging, which is opt\-in (see
below).
.PP
An explicit per\-category truthy value takes precedence over the master
switch: setting \f[CR]__fish_config_opinionated\f[R]=0 disables all
unset categories, but a category with an explicit truthy value remains
enabled regardless.
.PP
C5 (logging) is the one exception to \(lqunset means enabled\(rq.
Because it writes terminal output to disk, it is opt\-in: unset means
disabled, and the master switch cannot enable it.
Only an explicit truthy value turns logging on.
.IP
.EX

du\->duf/dust, mkdir/bash wrappers,

flag injection, help intercept, claude
AGENTS.md auto\-link
__fish_config_op_autoexec Startup side\-effects: Fisher

__fish_config_op_overrides Key and env overrides: Vi mode,
exit\->smart_exit, PAGER/MANPAGER,

colors, FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS, right
prompt
__fish_config_op_integrations Terminal/tool coupling: Kitty/
WezTerm window abbreviations, done
notifications, spwin/tab/split,
hist, logs, upgrade, WakaTime
__fish_config_op_logging Logging & capture (OPT\-IN \(em this one
is off unless explicitly enabled):
scrollback capture on exit, paru/yay
AUR log wrappers, Kitty watcher
capture; sentinel file coordinates
cross\-process state
__fish_config_op_greeting Greeting & first\-run UI: per\-session
fish_greeting override (defines empty
function late in config.fish to
suppress distro greetings such as
CachyOS fastfetch); first\-run welcome
banner in conf.d/first_run.fish
.EE
.PP
Examples:
.IP
.EX
# Disable command shadows only (rm becomes plain rm again):
set \-U __fish_config_op_aliases off
# Turn session logging on (opt\-in; off until you do this):
set \-U __fish_config_op_logging on
# Full minimal mode \(em disable all six categories at once:
set \-U __fish_config_opinionated 0
# Re\-enable everything (except C5 logging, which stays opt\-in):
set \-Ue __fish_config_opinionated
# Minimal mode but keep the greeting:
set \-U __fish_config_opinionated 0
set \-U __fish_config_op_greeting 1
# (erase both to go back to full\-flavor defaults)
.EE
.PP
For an interactive alternative to setting these variables by hand, run
\f[CR]config\-settings\f[R] \(em a full\-screen TUI that flips any
category (including C5 logging) on or off, per session or universally.
See its entry in Section 5.
.PP
NOTE: \- Command shadows (rm, cat, ls, \&...)
react immediately; conf.d\-level components (bindings, prompt,
abbreviations, hooks) take effect in new shells.
\- With aliases disabled, rm falls back to bare \f[CR]command rm\f[R]
\(em files are deleted permanently, not trashed.
\- Disabled integration commands (\f[CR]spwin\f[R], \f[CR]tab\f[R],
\f[CR]split\f[R], \f[CR]hist\f[R], \f[CR]logs\f[R], \f[CR]upgrade\f[R])
print an error naming the variable that disabled them.
\- On CachyOS, the distro fish config\(cqs own aliases, history
override, and bang\-bang bindings are stripped per category as well.
.SS Sub\-categories
Each of the six categories further sub\-divides into two to six
sub\-categories, each with its own
\f[CR]__fish_config_op_<category>_<subcategory>\f[R] variable
(e.g.\ \f[CR]__fish_config_op_aliases_filesystem\f[R]).
These follow the exact same truthy/falsy/unset cascade one level deeper:
an explicit sub\-category value overrides the master switch and the
parent category\(cqs setting, and an unset sub\-category inherits from
its parent category (which in turn inherits from
\f[CR]__fish_config_opinionated\f[R]).
Run \f[CR]config\-settings\f[R] and press Enter on a category row to
browse and toggle its sub\-categories interactively.
See Components Reference for the full sub\-category breakdown of every
category.
.SS Agent Memory Vault
.IP
.EX
__fish_agent_vault_dir
Overrides the agent memory vault location. Defaults to
$XDG_DATA_HOME/agent\-vault (or \(ti/.local/share/agent\-vault).
__fish_agent_vault_autopush
When set to 1, agents\-vault also pushes on wrapper launch. Defaults to
off: the vault commits locally on every launch and pushes from the
Claude Code SessionEnd hook or an explicit agents\-vault \-\-push. That
push is synchronous, so with autopush on the pull and the push are
each capped at 20 seconds; an explicit \-\-push is left uncapped.
.EE
.PP
NOTE: With autopush off and no SessionEnd hook installed, backups
accumulate locally and never reach the remote.
Run \f[CR]agents\-vault \-\-status\f[R] to check how far ahead the vault
is.
.SS Prompt and Theme
.SS Starship
The primary prompt is Starship, initialized by
\f[CR]conf.d/starship.fish\f[R].
Configure it via \f[CR]\(ti/.config/starship.toml\f[R].
.PP
\f[CR]conf.d/starship.fish\f[R] defines a \f[CR]fish_prompt\f[R] wrapper
that only activates when \f[CR]starship\f[R] is in PATH and C3 overrides
are enabled (see Opinionated Components above).
It emits OSC 133;A (prompt start) immediately before Starship renders
and OSC 133;B (input start) immediately after, placing both markers on
the prompt line itself.
This allows ov to use them as sticky section headers when browsing
scrollback logs.
It also prints a blank line before the prompt, skipped in private mode
or on a freshly cleared screen.
Without Starship, fish\(cqs built\-in prompt handles these markers
automatically.
.SS Catppuccin Fallback Prompt
When Starship is absent or C3 overrides are disabled, a built\-in
nim\-style two\-line prompt activates from
\f[CR]functions/fish_prompt.fish\f[R].
No external dependencies \(em fish builtins only.

\f[CR]# COMPONENT\f[R] header, independent of every C1\-C6 category and
sub\-category toggle and invisible to \f[CR]config\-settings\f[R].
An \f[CR]always/off\f[R] tag disables that function unconditionally; an
\f[CR]always/on\f[R] tag enables it unconditionally, ignoring the state
of every other tagged sub\-category.

not created.
The symlink is git\-ignored and only ever managed as a symlink \(em a
real file or directory at that path is left untouched.
The symlink has its own opt\-out independent of C2: set
\f[CR]__fish_user_dots_symlink\f[R] to a falsy value (or toggle \(lqDots

.PP
Python venv activation fires on every directory change.
If a directory uses \f[CR]direnv\f[R] (\f[CR].envrc\f[R] present),
\f[CR]direnv\f[R] takes priority and auto\-venv is skipped for that
directory.

Auto\-pull fast\-forwards opted\-in repositories in the background when

The fish\-config repo is always covered; other repos are added with the
\f[CR]auto\-pull\f[R] command (see its entry in the functions
reference).
It only ever fast\-forwards a clean repo whose branch has an upstream
\(em never rebases, merges, or overwrites work \(em so it is a no\-op on
dirty trees, divergent branches, or repos without a remote.
The handler fires once per repo entry (not on every sub\-directory
\f[CR]cd\f[R]).
The registry is machine\-local at
\f[CR]$__fish_user_dots_path/auto\-pull.list\f[R] (defaults to
\f[CR]\(ti/.config/.user\-dots/fish/auto\-pull.list\f[R]) and is never

and a truthy master switch does not enable it.
While it is off, all capture is skipped and the logging wrappers are
removed.

output and secrets directly to disk.

.PP
The \f[CR]tmux\f[R] capture starts automatically when fish launches
inside any \f[CR]tmux\f[R] pane (\f[CR]$TMUX\f[R] is set).
It uses \f[CR]tmux\f[R]\(cqs native pipe\-pane to stream all pane output
directly to disk without an intermediate process.
Each fish shell session gets its own log file; a new log is created on
each shell start (including exec fish and new splits).
Before each new log, the oldest \f[CR]tmux_*.log\f[R] files are pruned
(by modification time) to keep the total within
\f[CR]SCROLLBACK_HISTORY_MAX_FILES\f[R], matching the
\f[CR]paru\f[R]/\f[CR]yay\f[R] wrapper behaviour.
.PP
The \f[CR]zellij\f[R] capture works differently: Zellij has no live
output\-streaming facility like pipe\-pane, so the log is taken as a
one\-shot snapshot when the shell exits, via
\f[CR]zellij action dump\-screen \-\-full \-\-ansi\f[R] (the
\f[CR]\-\-ansi\f[R] flag preserves color).
The dump is captured on the fish process\(cqs stdout and written to the
log file by fish itself (not via \f[CR]\-\-path\f[R], which would make
the \f[CR]zellij\f[R] server write the file).
A \f[CR]fish_exit\f[R] handler (registered whenever \f[CR]$ZELLIJ\f[R]
is set) writes the pane\(cqs full scrollback and then prunes old
\f[CR]zellij_*.log\f[R] files the same way.
Because the capture happens at exit, toggling
\f[CR]__fish_config_op_logging\f[R] takes effect on the next exit with
no restart or sentinel coordination needed \(em the C5 guard is
re\-checked when the handler fires.
.PP
LIMITATION \(em \f[CR]zellij\f[R] capture only fires on a clean shell
exit (typing \f[CR]exit\f[R], \f[CR]Ctrl\-D\f[R], or a logout), because
that is when the \f[CR]fish_exit\f[R] handler runs.
It does NOT capture when you close a pane or quit \f[CR]zellij\f[R]
through \f[CR]zellij\f[R] itself:
.IP \(bu 2
Closing a pane signals the shell and tears the pane down concurrently,
so even if the handler runs, dump\-screen may find the pane buffer
already gone.
.IP \(bu 2
Quitting \f[CR]zellij\f[R] kills the \f[CR]zellij\f[R] server, and
\f[CR]dump\-screen\f[R] needs a live server to read from \(em there is
nothing left to snapshot.
.PP
This is a structural difference from \f[CR]tmux\f[R], NOT a bug.
\f[CR]tmux\f[R] streams pane output to disk continuously via pipe\-pane,
so whatever was printed is already saved no matter how the pane dies.
Zellij can only snapshot, and the only reliable snapshot point from the
shell is a clean exit.
To guarantee a \f[CR]zellij\f[R] pane is logged, end the session with
\f[CR]exit\f[R] or \f[CR]Ctrl\-D\f[R] rather than \f[CR]zellij\f[R]\(cqs
close\-pane or quit actions.
.PP
The Kitty watcher is managed by the \f[CR]kitty\-logging\f[R] command:
it symlinks the watcher (\f[CR]fish\-config\-watcher.py\f[R]) into the
Kitty config directory and wires it into \f[CR]kitty.conf\f[R] via a
managed block.
Inside Kitty, a non\-blocking per\-session reminder points first\-time
users at \f[CR]kitty\-logging install\f[R] until they install or run
\f[CR]kitty\-logging dismiss\f[R]; the reminder is itself gated on C5,
so it stays silent until you enable logging.
Install affects new Kitty windows only; runtime disable is still handled
by the \f[CR].logging_disabled\f[R] sentinel.
.PP
Logging coordination via sentinel file
.PP
C5 uses a sentinel file to synchronize state between the shell and
out\-of\-process components (the Kitty watcher and all running shells):
.IP
.EX
\(ti/.config/fish/.logging_disabled
.EE
.PP
Because C5 is off by default, the sentinel is present on a fresh install
\(em the startup sync in \f[CR]conf.d/logging\-events.fish\f[R]
reconciles it on every shell start, so it appears without any action on
your part.
.PP
Disabling \f[CR]__fish_config_op_logging\f[R] (or leaving it unset): 1.
Creates the sentinel immediately in every open shell.
2.
Removes \f[CR]\(ti/.local/bin/paru\f[R] and
\f[CR]\(ti/.local/bin/yay\f[R] logging wrappers; bare /usr/bin/paru and
/usr/bin/yay are used instead.
3.
Kitty\(cqs \f[CR]watcher.py\f[R] reads the sentinel on each save attempt
and skips capture \(em no Kitty restart required.
4.
\f[CR]smart_exit\f[R] stops saving scrollback logs.
5.
Stops \f[CR]tmux pipe\-pane\f[R] capture in every open fish shell inside
\f[CR]tmux\f[R].
.PP
Enabling \f[CR]__fish_config_op_logging\f[R]: 1.
Removes the sentinel in every open shell.
2.
Regenerates \f[CR]paru\f[R]/\f[CR]yay\f[R] logging wrappers in
\f[CR]\(ti/.local/bin/\f[R].
3.
Kitty watcher resumes capture on the next session exit.
4.
Restarts \f[CR]tmux\f[R] pipe\-pane capture in every open fish shell
inside \f[CR]tmux\f[R].
.PP
Changes propagate to all running shells through an event handler that
fires whenever \f[CR]__fish_config_op_logging\f[R] changes \(em no shell
restart needed.
.PP
Note: C3 and C5 compose independently.
C3 controls whether the \f[CR]smart_exit\f[R] wrapper is active at all;

.SS Sponge History Filtering
Sponge removes failed commands from history and, via
\f[CR]conf.d/sponge_privacy.fish\f[R], also filters privacy\-sensitive
commands through three layers.
Detection is heuristic \(em pattern\- and variable\-name\-based \(em so
this reduces the risk of a credential landing in persistent history; it
is not a guarantee that no secret can ever reach it, and it is not a
substitute for rotating a credential that gets typed in plaintext.
Treat it as a safety net, not a vault.
.PP
Layer 1 \(em Static patterns (universal, persistent across sessions):
Commands matching any of these structural signatures are never recorded:
.IP \(bu 2

.PP
Layer 2 \(em Dynamic secret values (session globals, refreshed each
login): On the first prompt, after \f[CR]secrets.fish\f[R] has loaded,
the literal values of all exported variables whose names suggest
credentials (TOKEN, PASSWORD, SECRET, \f[CR]API_KEY\f[R], etc.)
are collected, regex\-escaped, and added as a session\-scoped overlay.
Because globals shadow universals in Fish, the combined list is what
sponge sees.
Rotating a token takes effect on the next login automatically.
.PP
Layer 3 \(em Per\-command filter (\f[CR]sponge_filter_secrets\f[R]):
Catches credentials in variables exported after login, such as tokens
sourced from a project .env file mid\-session.
.PP
A match is actively deleted from history, not stored and redacted.
Sponge queues a matched command on \f[CR]fish_postexec\f[R] and purges
anything past \f[CR]sponge_delay\f[R] entries on the very next
\f[CR]fish_prompt\f[R], immediately forcing a \f[CR]history save\f[R].
With this config\(cqs (upstream) defaults, that means a matched command
is gone from disk within about one prompt cycle \(em it is not left
sitting in persistent history for the rest of the session.
.PP
This timing depends on \f[CR]sponge_purge_only_on_exit\f[R] staying
\f[CR]false\f[R], which is sponge\(cqs own default and is not overridden
here.
Turning it on defers all purging to the \f[CR]fish_exit\f[R] event
instead of the next prompt \(em and because \f[CR]fish_exit\f[R] does
not fire on a killed or crashed session, a matched command purged only
on exit can survive indefinitely if the shell never exits cleanly.
Leave this setting off.
.PP
To add your own persistent patterns:
.IP
.EX
set \-U \-a sponge_regex_patterns \(aqyour\-regex\-here\(aq
.EE
.PP
To mark additional variable NAMES as credential\-bearing (so Layer 2
scrubs their values), add name tokens \(em via
\f[CR]config\-settings\f[R] → Sponge, or directly:
.IP
.EX
set \-U \-a __fish_sponge_extra_sensitive ACME_API VAULT_PW
.EE
.PP
Tokens are folded into the Layer 2 name match case\-insensitively as
substrings, so \f[CR]ACME_API\f[R] also covers \f[CR]ACME_API_KEY\f[R].
(The match uses \f[CR]\-\-entire\f[R] to return the full variable name,
so partial\-name tokens dereference the right value.)
.PP
The \f[CR]config\-settings\f[R] Sponge page also surfaces sponge\(cqs
own tuning variables \(em \f[CR]sponge_delay\f[R],
\f[CR]sponge_successful_exit_codes\f[R],
\f[CR]sponge_purge_only_on_exit\f[R], and

.PP
The \f[CR]\(ti/.terminal_history/\f[R] log directory contains your
session logs.
Remove it only if you do not want to keep them.
.SS Fish Version Requirement
This config requires Fish 4.x or newer.
Check your version:
.IP
.EX
fish \-\-version
.EE
.PP
Run \f[CR]fish\-deps\f[R] to see a status report \(em an outdated Fish
shows ⚠ with an upgrade message.
.PP
Upgrading Fish by distribution:
.IP
.EX
# Arch / AUR
pacman \-S fish # or paru \-S fish
# Ubuntu / Debian (PPA)
sudo apt\-add\-repository ppa:fish\-shell/release\-4
sudo apt update && sudo apt install fish
# Fedora
sudo dnf install fish
# macOS
brew install fish
.EE
.PP
For other systems or building from source, see https://fishshell.com.
.SS Enable or Disable Session Logging
Session logging is opt\-in: it is off until you turn it on.
To enable all logging and capture (scrollback,
\f[CR]tmux\f[R]/\f[CR]zellij\f[R] pane logs, AUR helper wrappers, Kitty
watcher):
.IP
.EX
set \-U __fish_config_op_logging on
.EE
.PP
Or toggle it interactively: run \f[CR]config\-settings\f[R] and flip the
Logging row.
.PP
Disable it again \(em either an explicit falsy value or erasing the
variable returns you to the default off state:
.IP
.EX
set \-U __fish_config_op_logging off
set \-Ue __fish_config_op_logging
.EE
.PP
This takes effect immediately in all running shells \(em no restart
needed.
The sentinel file, wrapper removal, and pipe\-pane teardown happen
automatically.
.PP
See C5 \(em Logging and Capture for the full component breakdown.
.SS Change or Disable the Greeting
This config suppresses the distro greeting (e.g.\ CachyOS
\f[CR]fastfetch\f[R]) by default.
To let the distro greeting through:
.IP
.EX
set \-U __fish_config_op_greeting off
.EE
.PP
To set a custom greeting, define \f[CR]fish_greeting\f[R] in your
\f[CR]local.fish\f[R]:
.IP
.EX
# in $__fish_user_dots_path/local.fish
function fish_greeting
echo \(dqHello, world!\(dq
end
.EE
.PP
The first\-run welcome banner runs exactly once.
To re\-trigger it (e.g.\ for testing):
.IP
.EX
set \-Ue __fish_config_first_run_complete
.EE
.PP
See C6 \(em Greeting and First\-Run UI for details.
.SS Secrets and Machine\-Local Configuration
Machine\-specific config goes in
\f[CR]$__fish_user_dots_path/local.fish\f[R] (defaults to
\f[CR]\(ti/.config/.user\-dots/fish/local.fish\f[R]).
Secrets go in \f[CR]secrets.fish\f[R] in the same directory.
.PP
If \f[CR]local.fish\f[R] is not loading, verify the path:
.IP
.EX
echo $__fish_user_dots_path
test \-f \(dq$__fish_user_dots_path/local.fish\(dq; and echo exists; or echo missing
.EE
.PP
Change the path via variable or TUI:
.IP
.EX
set \-U __fish_user_dots_path /new/path/to/dots/fish
.EE
.PP
Or run \f[CR]config\-settings\f[R], navigate to the Paths page, and edit
\(lqDots path\(rq.
.PP
The \f[CR]user\-dots\f[R] convenience symlink in the config directory
tracks this path.
Disable it with:
.IP
.EX
set \-U __fish_user_dots_symlink false
.EE
.PP
See Personalization for the full \f[CR]local.fish\f[R] /
\f[CR]secrets.fish\f[R] layout.
.SS Tool Init Does Nothing (Return Sentinel)
Symptom: you ran a tool\(cqs setup command (e.g.
\f[CR]starship init fish >> \(ti/.config/fish/config.fish\f[R]) and
nothing changed.
.PP
Cause: \f[CR]config.fish\f[R] ends with a \f[CR]return\f[R] guard.
Any lines appended after it are never executed.
.PP
Fix: create a dedicated \f[CR]conf.d/\f[R] file instead of appending to
\f[CR]config.fish\f[R]:
.IP
.EX
# \(ti/.config/fish/conf.d/mytool.fish
mytool init fish | source
.EE
.PP
All existing integrations (\f[CR]starship\f[R], \f[CR]zoxide\f[R],
\f[CR]direnv\f[R]) already have \f[CR]conf.d/\f[R] files.
See Return Sentinel for background.
.SS Missing Dependencies
Run \f[CR]fish\-deps\f[R] (defaults to \f[CR]fish\-deps status\f[R]) to
see what is installed and what is missing.
Common symptoms and their missing tools:
.IP
.EX
Symptom Missing tool
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────
ls output has no icons or colors eza (or lsd)
cd does not remember directories zoxide
cat shows no syntax highlighting bat
fzf keybindings do nothing fzf
Starship prompt not appearing starship
.EE
.PP
Install missing dependencies interactively:
.IP
.EX
fish\-deps install
.EE
.PP
Or install everything missing and update what is installed:
.IP
.EX
fish\-deps sync
.EE
.PP
See Dependency Catalog for the full list grouped by tier (required,
integrations, recommended).
.SS Vi Mode Keybindings
This config enables Vi mode by default (via C3 overrides), replacing the
standard Emacs\-style bindings.
If Vi mode interferes with your workflow, override it in
\f[CR]local.fish\f[R] (See Personalization):
.IP
.EX
# $__fish_user_dots_path/local.fish
fish_default_key_bindings
.EE
.PP
This restores Emacs\-style bindings without disabling the rest of C3
(bang\-bang, autopair, \f[CR]starship\f[R] prompt, pager settings,
etc.).
.PP
To disable the entire C3 category (Vi mode and all other key/environment
overrides):
.IP
.EX
set \-U __fish_config_op_overrides off
.EE
.PP
See C3 \(em Key and Environment Overrides for the full list of what C3
controls.
.SS What\(cqs with the C1\-C6 stuff?
This configuration groups its opinionated behaviors into six categories
(C1\(enC6), allowing you to selectively disable features that conflict
with your workflow.
The \f[B]C\f[R]ategory numbers are used as shorthand when referencing
these.
Disabling all of them leaves you with a \(lqMinimal Mode\(rq shell that
only manages basic features like \f[CR]XDG\f[R] variables, and your
\f[CR]local.fish\f[R] overrides.
.IP
.EX
Category Description
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
C1 Command Shadows \(em Wraps destructive commands (rm, cp) to be safe by default
C2 Startup Side\-Effects \(em Bootstraps Fisher, generates wrappers, auto\-activates venvs
C3 Overrides \(em Overrides cd, sets Vi mode, binds <CR> to smart_enter
C4 Integrations \(em Kitty/Wezterm integrations, starship hooks, fzf theme
C5 Logging and Capture \(em Session logs, command duration
C6 Greeting & First\-Run UI \(em Custom startup banner
.EE
.PP
Disable all opinionated features at once (Minimal Mode):
.IP
.EX
set \-U __fish_config_opinionated 0
.EE
.PP
Disable a single category:
.IP
.EX
set \-U __fish_config_op_aliases off # C1
set \-U __fish_config_op_autoexec off # C2
set \-U __fish_config_op_overrides off # C3
set \-U __fish_config_op_integrations off # C4
set \-U __fish_config_op_logging off # C5 (already off by default)
set \-U __fish_config_op_greeting off # C6
.EE
.PP
Keep one category active under a master disable:
.IP
.EX
set \-U __fish_config_opinionated 0
set \-U __fish_config_op_aliases 1 # only C1 stays on
.EE
.PP
Re\-enable everything:
.IP
.EX
set \-Ue __fish_config_opinionated
.EE
.PP
Each category also has two to six sub\-categories (e.g.
\f[CR]__fish_config_op_aliases_filesystem\f[R]) that can be checked,
disabled, or reset the same way \(em
\f[CR]set \-U __fish_config_op_<category>_<subcategory> off\f[R] and
\f[CR]set \-Ue __fish_config_op_<category>_<subcategory>\f[R] work
identically to the category\-level recipes above, just one level more
granular.
See Components Reference for the full list.
.PP
For an interactive alternative to setting these variables by hand, run
\f[CR]config\-settings\f[R].

.SH 13. VIEWING THIS MANUAL
There are four ways to read this manual.
.SS The documentation website
.IP
.EX
help config \-\-html
.EE
.PP
Opens https://fish.rootiest.fyi/ in the default browser \(em the
Starlight\-powered site built from \f[CR]docs/manual/**\f[R] on every
push to \f[CR]main\f[R].
It has a section sidebar and full\-text search.
Deep links to a specific section aren\(cqt supported from the command
line; once the site opens, use its search box to jump straight to what
you need.
.SS As a man page
.IP
.EX
help config \-\-man
help config pkg \-\-man
.EE
.PP
Opens the compiled \f[CR]docs/fish\-config.1\f[R] directly via man
\f[CR]\-l\f[R], bypassing the pager fallback chain.
If a section keyword is given, the pager opens at the nearest matching
heading.
The symlink is created once on first run (like an install step) and
MANPATH is set each session, enabling the standard invocation:
.IP
.EX
man fish\-config
.EE
.PP
NOTE: fish\-config (hyphen) is this config\(cqs man page.
\f[CR]fish_config\f[R] (underscore) is fish\(cqs built\-in
browser\-based configuration tool \(em a completely separate command.
Do not mix them up.
.SS In the terminal
.IP
.EX
help config
help config keybindings
.EE
.PP
Without a pager available beyond the basics,
\f[CR]help config [SECTION]\f[R] opens the Markdown manual in the best
available viewer, falling back through:
.IP
.EX
1. ov + bat section navigation + syntax highlighting (best)
2. ov alone section navigation, raw Markdown
3. bat alone syntax highlighting, use / to search
4. man \-l pre\-compiled man page (if available)
5. less plain text with line\-jump
6. cat plain output
.EE
.PP
With ov, the Markdown renders with syntax highlighting and
section\-based navigation:
.IP
.EX
Space next section
\(ha previous section
Alt+u toggle section list sidebar
/ search forward
n / N next / previous search match
g go to line number
j interactive jump target (line, %, or \(aqsection\(aq)
q quit
.EE
.PP
If SECTION is given, the pager opens at the first heading that matches
the keyword (case\-insensitive; checks
\f[CR]docs/fish\-config.index\f[R] aliases first, then falls back to a
normalized heading scan):
.IP
.EX
help config keybindings
help config abbreviations
help config pkg
help config logs
help config fish\-deps
.EE
.SS Reading the source directly
\f[CR]docs/manual/**\f[R] is the single source of truth this manual, the
man page, and the website are all generated from.
Numbered files and directories correspond to the numbered sections in
this manual \(em browse them in any editor, or from a shell:
.IP
.EX
cd \(ti/.config/fish/docs/manual
grep \-rn \(dqkeybindings\(dq .
.EE
.PP
Section 5 is the exception.
Function entries are generated from the man\-page\-style comment header
above each function in \f[CR]functions/*.fish\f[R], so the documentation
for a command lives beside the code that implements it and cannot drift
from it.
To read the source for a single function, or to correct its
documentation, open the function itself:
.IP
.EX
functions/git\-clean.fish
.EE
.PP
The files under \f[CR]docs/manual/05\-functions/\f[R] carry only the
category titles, ordering, and search keywords.
.SH 14. TESTING
.IP
.EX
fish tests/run\-tests.fish
.EE
.PP
Runs before every push (and gates the \c
.UR https://git.rootiest.dev/rootiest/fish-config/src/branch/main/.github/workflows/ci.yml

\ in CI, so a broken config can\(cqt get published): syntax\-lints every
\f[CR].fish\f[R] file, then loads the config in an isolated
\f[CR]HOME\f[R]/XDG sandbox \(em never this checkout itself, since it
doubles as a real \f[CR]\(ti/.config/fish\f[R] \(em and runs functional
checks against foundational behavior (XDG/PATH/CDPATH setup, key
bindings, abbreviations, core functions, the opinionated\-component
registry, and more).
