Migrating from GNU stow to chezmoi
Summary
The article explains a move from GNU stow to chezmoi for managing dotfiles across multiple Macs. It highlights why symlink-based workflows became hard to maintain and how chezmoi solves that with a source directory, apply/diff workflow, and built-in scripting. It also shows how the setup now handles Homebrew, macOS defaults, and agent skills in one repeatable process. The piece ends by describing how the same skill files can serve both Claude Code and Codex through chezmoi-managed paths.
