> Ops home for Seth's MacBook Pro — debloat, Linux-feel, Ableton-first.
|
|
|
|
## Start Here
|
|
|
|
**Read the latest handoff first:** `.claude/handoffs/` (most recent file).
|
|
It has session state, in-progress work, and ordered next steps.
|
|
|
|
Then check `IDEA.md` for the project brief and `DECISIONS.md` for settled choices.
|
|
|
|
## Project Identity
|
|
|
|
Configuration + scripts for Seth's MacBook Pro (arrived 2026-09-15). Three
|
|
goals, in priority order: (1) Ableton Live 12 runs clean — this is the DAW
|
|
box now that Wine on steel141 is abandoned; (2) feels like Linux to a Linux
|
|
user — GNU coreutils, `ip`, familiar shell, ssh-able from steel141; (3) stock
|
|
macOS noise turned off. Sibling of `~/bin/ableton/` (which is now an archive
|
|
of the Wine attempt) and `~/bin/thinkpad-yoga/` (same "ops home for a
|
|
laptop" shape).
|
|
|
|
## Current State
|
|
|
|
- **Phase:** ideation
|
|
- **Repo:** not yet
|
|
- **Deploy target:** the MacBook, `ssh mac` (192.168.0.94, user seth, en0 Wi-Fi)
|
|
- **Hardware:** MacBookPro18,1 (16" 2021), M1 Pro, 32 GB, 512 GB. **macOS 26.2 Tahoe.**
|
|
- Remote Login enabled + claude key installed 2026-09-15. `ssh mac` works from steel141.
|
|
- **FileVault is on** — no SSH after a reboot until the password is typed at the lid.
|
|
- Stock state is already clean: no Homebrew/CLT, only Safari in /Applications,
|
|
Siri off, Apple Intelligence opted out. Full snapshot:
|
|
`docs/reference/inventory-2026-09-15.md` — read when checking "was X stock?".
|
|
- No changes made yet.
|
|
|
|
## Conventions
|
|
|
|
- All changes as scripts under `scripts/` (bash, idempotent, `set -euo pipefail`);
|
|
never one-off `defaults write` in a chat that isn't also committed.
|
|
- Before any `defaults write`: `defaults read <domain> > .backup/<domain>-$(date +%s).plist`
|
|
- Before any `launchctl disable`/`bootout`: record current `launchctl print` state to `.backup/`
|
|
- Homebrew `Brewfile` at repo root is the package manifest — `brew bundle` is the install
|
|
- macOS gotchas go in this file's Conventions; per-decision reasoning goes in `DECISIONS.md`
