A new role (separate from base) that gives workstation-class hosts (ubongo now, mamba later) a clean interactive environment: zsh + oh-my-zsh + oh-my-posh, tmux + TPM plugins, and neovim. Dotfiles are real files deployed via GNU stow (not templated); pinned nvim v0.12.2 + oh-my-posh 29.0.1. Configs re-derived (ADR-013) from AnsibleBaobabV4 + the operator's fisi setup on boma's terms: no Nerd Font (headless host), no system LSP suite (nvim uses mason), versions pinned (V4 tracks latest). Applied via playbooks/workstation.yml to the control group for users sjat + claude. Lint + Molecule (idempotent) green. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

# `dev_env` Role — Implementation Plan (iteration 1)
|
|
|
|
> Built in the same 2026-06-11 session as the `ubongo` bring-up. A developer
|
|
> interactive environment (zsh/tmux/nvim) for **workstation-class** hosts.
|
|
|
|
**Goal:** Give `ubongo` (and future `mamba`) a clean interactive shell/editor setup,
|
|
reproducibly, as a boma-native Ansible role — so the operator (and the `claude` agent
|
|
user) can work comfortably over SSH.
|
|
|
|
## Decisions
|
|
|
|
- **Separate role, never part of `base`.** `base` is the security/infra baseline for
|
|
*every* host; a dev environment is only for human workstation-class hosts. Servers and
|
|
service VMs must never get it.
|
|
- **Stow, not templating.** Dotfiles are **real files** under `files/dotfiles/{zsh,tmux,nvim}/`
|
|
(re-derived `$HOME`-relative from `fisi`'s live configs), symlinked into `~` with GNU
|
|
stow. No Jinja-templated dotfiles (they rot; you'd edit templates not configs).
|
|
- **Users:** `dev_env__users` (default `[]`). Set to `[sjat, claude]` for `ubongo` in
|
|
`group_vars/control`.
|
|
- **V4 (ADR-013):** configs/package-lists/install-mechanism *consulted* from V4 and
|
|
**re-derived on boma's terms** — not its structure. V4 identifiers stripped from the
|
|
dotfiles.
|
|
|
|
## Re-derivations vs V4
|
|
|
|
- **No Nerd Font** on `ubongo` — it's headless; fonts are a client-side concern.
|
|
- **No system-wide LSP suite** — the operator's nvim uses **mason**, which self-installs
|
|
LSPs/formatters inside nvim (needs only nvim + git + a C compiler + node).
|
|
- **Pinned versions** (ADR-014): nvim `v0.12.2`, oh-my-posh `29.0.1` (V4 tracks "latest").
|
|
- **Plugins self-bootstrap**: lazy.nvim installs nvim plugins on first launch; the role
|
|
only lays down config + pre-clones omz/tmux plugins.
|
|
|
|
## Tasks (role: `roles/dev_env/`)
|
|
|
|
- `tasks/main.yml` — apt packages (`packages` tag) → include `neovim.yml`, `oh_my_posh.yml`
|
|
→ loop `per_user.yml` over `dev_env__users`.
|
|
- `tasks/neovim.yml` — install pinned nvim release to `/opt`, symlink, version sentinel.
|
|
- `tasks/oh_my_posh.yml` — install pinned oh-my-posh binary + deploy `zen.toml` to `/etc`.
|
|
- `tasks/per_user.yml` — set login shell to zsh (`users`); clone oh-my-zsh + custom
|
|
plugins + tmux/TPM plugins; copy dotfiles to `~/.dotfiles`; `stow` into `~` (`config`).
|
|
- `defaults/main.yml`, `meta/main.yml`, `README.md`, `requirements.yml`.
|
|
- `molecule/default/{converge,verify}.yml` — create a `tester` user, apply, assert
|
|
packages + nvim/omp/zen present + shell=zsh + dotfiles stowed (symlinks).
|
|
- `playbooks/workstation.yml` — apply `dev_env` to the `control` group (ubongo).
|
|
- `inventories/production/group_vars/control/vars.yml` — `dev_env__users: [sjat, claude]`.
|
|
|
|
## Verify / apply
|
|
|
|
- `make lint`; `make test ROLE=dev_env` (Molecule, Debian 13) must pass.
|
|
- Apply to `ubongo`: `make check`/`deploy PLAYBOOK=workstation` from a host that can SSH
|
|
to `ubongo` as `sjat` with `--ask-become-pass` (the Ansible-manages-ubongo connection
|
|
isn't bootstrapped yet — handle at apply time).
|
|
|
|
## Deferred (iteration 2+)
|
|
|
|
- A proper `workstations` inventory group (when `mamba` joins) instead of reusing `control`.
|
|
- lazygit, extra CLI tooling, any system LSP/formatters mason can't cover.
|
|
- Pinning tmux plugins to commits (currently `master` except catppuccin `v1.0.3`).
