NixOS · Home Manager · operating policy
One personal system, made legible.
Sinnix versions the workstation as a whole: hosts, desktop behavior, services, storage and recovery, observability, local evidence capture, developer environments, and the control surfaces used by coding agents.
Composition
Reproducible without pretending the machine is generic
The repository keeps reusable policy in modules and leaves concrete hardware, roles, and service choices visible at the host boundary.
Describe policy
Features, services, profiles, persistence, networking, storage, and runtime governance compose through typed options.
Choose the machine
The workstation, headless replica, and OpenWrt router remain explicit final composition boundaries.
Observe and recover
Systemd inventory, resource classes, telemetry, snapshots, backups, and restore drills keep the live system answerable.
What the repository owns
Configuration, behavior, and operational truth in one place
A specific desktop, deliberately
Hyprland and Noctalia, NVIDIA/Intel modes, audio, terminals, browsers, editors, local models, capture tools, and actively edited dotfiles.
Resource policy is service design
Typed inventory drives systemd slices, memory and IO posture, scoped command wrappers, live observation, and evaluation-time consistency checks.
Capture systems are composed services
Sinex, Polylogue, Lynchpin, ActivityWatch, terminal capture, and machine telemetry share explicit ownership and lifecycle boundaries.
Durable, rebuildable, and bulk data diverge
Impermanence, persistence declarations, Btrfs, Borg, staging, and restore exercises encode different recovery contracts for different data classes.
Documentation
Read it as a system, not a module catalog
Sinnix is a personal configuration, not a supported NixOS framework. Its reusable value is the way the boundaries fit together.
