Krzysztof kuhy Rudnicki 4f2b0ccdf7 Dissolve linux_configuration/scripts/ and single_use/
Two levels of pure taxonomy carrying no information, and a 2-directory
cap leaves no room for them. Categories now sit directly under
linux_configuration/: features, fixes, utils, misc, fresh-install,
installers, diagnostics, gaming, boot_recovery, periodic_background, lib,
meta, tests. A script's own lib/ and tests/ are exempt from the cap, so
those stay put.

Depth violations 248 -> 139; roughly 40 of the remainder are inside
digital_wellbeing and hosts, deferred until the guard-lib repoint.

The moves are the easy half. What breaks is every path that counted
levels, and three classes of it had to be found by resolving paths rather
than reading diffs:

  - 52 relative `source` lines for lib/common.sh and lib/android.sh. The
    correct prefix differs per file: 40 were ../../ and 12 were ../../../,
    so a blanket replace would have fixed one set and broken the other.
  - REPO_ROOT in 7 fixes/lib/tests harnesses and setup_syncyomi_guard.sh,
    each walking up four levels from a directory now two levels shallower.
    This caused a real regression -- the fixes suite went red with
    "log_warn: command not found" -- caught by running it and comparing
    against the pre-move baseline worktree.
  - conftest.py's sys.path entries, which took the pytest gate down with
    14 collection errors, and the `# shellcheck source=` directives, which
    took shellcheck down with SC1091.

16 symlinks in $HOME broke, including the entire i3blocks bar. All
repointed, and cpu_monitor/memory/disk/time/volume were run to confirm
they emit real output rather than merely resolving.

Verified: 1798 tests pass at 100% coverage, 8 of 9 lib/tests suites pass
(the ninth needs the coverage jail, identically at baseline), pre-commit
is clean, and the two untracked secret configs are still ignored after
their gitignore paths changed.

# testsAndMisc restructure — where it stands
Plan: `~/.claude/plans/after-refactor-of-testsandmisc-modular-wigderson.md`
Live-state checklist: `docs/restructure-live-state.md`
(regenerate with `./meta/scripts/report_live_state.sh`)
## Done
**Archived** to `github.com/kuhyx/testsAndMisc-archive`, full history:
`bucket_catch`, `poker-stakes`, `billsplit` (+ `python_pkg/billsplit_coverage`,
its CI workflow, the `app_icons` registry entry, and the paired
`.binary-allowlist` / `.gitignore` icon rules — `.binary-allowlist` now has no
patterns at all).
**Extracted** to public repos, full history, each with CI it did not have here:
`reverse-survivors`, `kcd2-dice-solver` (cloned to `~/kcd2-dice-solver`),
`focus-owner`, `mtk-root` (took the four `mtk_*` libs and three suites that
lived in `lib/`).
**Gates written, deliberately NOT wired**: `meta/scripts/check_directory_depth.sh`
(cap 2; exempts `third_party/`, `docs/superpowers/`, `.github/skills/` by prefix
and `lib/` / `tests/` by path segment). Violations 556 → 294.
Depth, tests and pre-commit verified green at every commit; nothing used
`--no-verify`.
## Decisions taken this session
- **Depth cap is 2**, with `lib/` and `tests/` exempt — so the ~118 single_use
lib files stay put and step D only flattens entry scripts.
- **`meta/` is in scope** for the cap.
- **`lib/common.sh` STAYS.** Measured: 55 consumers, 51 of which remain
here. The `.githooks` use a _separate_ `common.sh`, so the ">2 units" rule
selects nothing worth moving. Deviation from the original instruction,
agreed after measurement.
- **`periodic_background/lib/` STAYS** — 9 files, one consumer
(`check_and_enable_services.sh`), not a shared library.
- New repos are **public**; vmbox pass required for **all four** subsystems.
## Remaining, in order
1. `hosts` — owns `/etc/guard-lib/targets/{resolved,nsswitch}.conf` plugin
paths. Confirm `guardctl status` after, not just that files moved.
2. `phone_focus_mode` + `python_pkg/focus_policy` — must come after `hosts`:
`deploy_phases.sh:73` executes hosts' `generate_hosts_file.sh`.
3. `digital_wellbeing` **last** — pacman wrapper, `chattr +i`, the 12
hardcoded orchestrator paths in `check_and_enable_services.sh:61-74` /
`setup_periodic_system.sh:20-23`, and now `heavy_job_lock.sh`, which moved
in with it. It also owns `test_shutdown_timer_monitor.sh`, the pair test
left behind here.
4. Step D: flatten the 207 remaining entry-script violations
(`single_use/**` is ~130 of them). Deduplicate the two Nextcloud
implementations first — ~2,780 lines for one capability.
5. Step E: wire both gates, close the `boot-repair` hole (756 lines, escapes
the 250-line cap because `is_source_file()` needs a dot in the filename),
prune `docs/superpowers/` churn.
## Traps already paid for
- **Run the thing, don't read it.** Repointing kcd2 surfaced three failures no
grep would have found: pnpm ignoring the `package.json` "pnpm" field, pnpm
refusing to purge `node_modules` without a TTY, and the Docker container
still bind-mounting the deleted monorepo path.
- **`/usr/local/bin` holds copies that name repo paths** — invisible to a repo
grep, and `periodic-system-maintenance.sh` runs hourly with three such paths
into digital_wellbeing and hosts. Any extraction of those two must
_reinstall_ it, not just edit the repo copy.
- **Removing a file can break a suite that stays.** Deleting `mtk_harness.sh`
broke `test_common_datetime.sh`, which sources it. Check both directions.
- **pre-commit's patch restore can silently revert an edit** made before the
commit — the `app_icons` change had to be applied twice. Re-grep after
committing.
- `shell-tests.yml` discovers _some_ suites by glob and names others in an
explicit list. A removal breaks the list (CI fails on the missing file) and
silently shrinks the glob. Check both.
- **Never let a test fall back to `/usr/local/bin`.** The installed copy can be
older than source — `shutdown-timer-monitor.sh` is, on this machine — so the
test compares an installer template against a binary it never generated. It
hung. Prefer a sibling checkout and SKIP when absent.
- Extractions keep surfacing pre-existing bugs. `update_android_hosts.sh`
pointed `GUARDIAN_MODULE_DIR` at a sibling that never existed. Fix them
rather than carrying them forward, and guard at the single funnel.
## Unrelated: syncyomi-guard is red
Failing since 00:00 on 2026-08-23, ~17h before this session — nothing to do
with the restructure. It is working as designed: the library collapsed from
2185 manga / 68902 chapters to 8 / 895. See the `syncyomi-restore-silent-partial`
memory; do NOT checkpoint the WAL before recovering. Newest snapshot in
`~/syncyomi/snapshots/` is 2026-08-15.
