Ryan Bates Dot Files

These are config files to set up Mac OS X command line the way I like it using Zsh.

For an older version that uses Oh My Zsh, check out this branch.

Installation

Run the bin/install command to copy files over. It will prompt you before replacing if the files already exist.

git clone [email protected]/ryanb/dotfiles ~/.dotfiles
cd ~/.dotfiles
./bin/install

After installing, open a new terminal window to see the effects.

Feel free to customize the .zshrc file to match your preference.

Features

I normally place all of my coding projects in ~/code, so this directory can easily be accessed (and tab completed) with the "c" command.

c railsca<tab>

If you don't specify an argument it will open fzf allowing you to fuzzy-find code directories. You can add directories to this with CODE_PATH. Just ensure the first one is the base one.

# in .zshrc
export CODE_PATH="$HOME/code:$HOME/code/railscasts-episodes"

There is also an "h" command which behaves similar, but acts on the home path.

h doc<tab>

If you're using git, you'll notice the current branch name shows up in the prompt while in a git repository.

Use gw to switch branches with fzf. If the branch is checked out in a worktree, it will cd there instead.

Claude Code

The claude/ directory is a Claude Code plugin with the following skills:

• bisect — Git bisect to find the first bad commit by running a test command
• dependabot-prs — Review and merge open Dependabot pull requests
• fix-all — Run bin/claude-review --print and automatically fix all reported issues
• gfix — Amend a commit further back in history with fixup + auto-rebase
• interview — Stress-test a plan or design by interviewing you one numbered, multiple-choice question at a time
• pr-feedback — Triage unresolved PR review comments and address each in a separate sub-agent and commit
• pr-pending-feedback — Triage pending (unsubmitted) PR review comments and address each in a separate sub-agent and commit
• rebase — Interactive rebase workflow
• review-queue — Ranked PR review list with dependency trees and filtered line counts
• standup — Summarize work since the last standup across your configured repos
• walkthrough — Walk through PR changes from the user's perspective

Installing as a plugin

/plugin marketplace add ryanb/dotfiles
/plugin install bisect@ryanb-dotfiles
/plugin install gfix@ryanb-dotfiles
/plugin install review-queue@ryanb-dotfiles

dependabot-prs preferences

Create ~/.claude/dependabot-prs.json to give per-repo instructions to the skill (e.g. limit to certain labels):

{
  "owner/repo": "Only handle PRs with the javascript label."
}

review-queue preferences

Create ~/.claude/review-queue.json to customize which PRs are prioritized per repo:

{
  "owner/repo": "Prioritize POS PRs. Exclude my PRs (author: username) that are not yet approved."
}

standup preferences

Create ~/.claude/standup.json to point the skill at your project directory and optionally customize the output:

{
  "base_path": "~/code/your-project-root",
  "default_branch": "main",
  "preferences": "Prefix each section with the team name. Skip WIP branches."
}

Only base_path is required. The skill writes the last-run timestamp to ~/.claude/standup-last-timestamp so reruns only show new work since the previous run.

Uninstall

To remove the dotfile configs, run the following commands. Be certain to double check the contents of the files before removing so you don't lose custom settings.

unlink ~/.bin
unlink ~/.gitignore
unlink ~/.gitconfig
unlink ~/.gemrc
unlink ~/.gvimrc
unlink ~/.irbrc
unlink ~/.vim
unlink ~/.vimrc
rm ~/.zshrc # careful here
rm -rf ~/.dotfiles

Then open a new terminal window to see the effects.
