Install

git clone https://github.com/mdawess/dotfiles.git ~/dotfiles
cd ~/dotfiles
./install.sh

The script symlinks each config to its expected location. Existing files are backed up with a .bak suffix before being replaced.

What's included

Neovim

Full config using Packer. Includes LSP, Telescope, Treesitter, and completions.

Tmux

• Prefix: Ctrl+a
• Mouse support enabled
• Window/pane navigation: Alt+h/l (panes), Alt+j/k (windows), Alt+t (new window)
• Session switching: Alt+i (last), Alt+n/p (next/prev)
• Plugins: tpm, tmux-sensible, tmux-resurrect, tmux-continuum

After install, run <prefix> + I inside tmux to install the tmux plugins via tpm.

Ghostty

Keybindings for tab navigation:

• Cmd+j/k — previous/next tab

Claude Code

Shared settings and global instructions for Claude Code:

• Model: Sonnet, subagents on Haiku
• Enabled plugins: frontend-design, serena, playwright, code-simplifier, vercel
• Notifications via terminal-notifier (macOS only):
  • Stop hook: notifies when Claude finishes a task
  • Notification hook: notifies when Claude is waiting for input

Note: The notification hooks require terminal-notifier (brew install terminal-notifier). On Linux, remove or replace the hooks entries in claude/settings.json.

CLAUDE.md defines global Claude Code guidelines: commit conventions (Conventional Commits), worktree/stacked-PR workflow via amp, and feature planning with /to-prd.
