Five live mechanisms were silently pointing at paths that no longer exist.
None of them announced it; each degraded to a log line or a missing file.
- hosts-file-monitor.service is ACTIVE and watches /etc/hosts for tampering,
but its embedded installer path was the pre-flatten scripts/ one. It logged
"Hosts install script not found" 37 times: it detected tampering it could
not repair.
- dns-blocklist-refresh.service (enabled, next run 00:01) named a deleted
single_use/features/ path, as did media-organizer.service under utils/.
- setup_periodic_system.sh read all TEN of its templates from
periodic_background/system-maintenance/, which has held nothing but
untracked .pyc and .coverage residue since system-maintenance was
extracted. Every install of a service, timer or script was reading a file
that was not there.
- /etc/sudoers.d/hosts-install-no-passwd granted NOPASSWD on the old hosts
installer path.
Running the fixed dns unit then caught a bug the static checks missed: under
systemd there is no SUDO_USER and `id -un` is root, so the new resolver
returned /root/hosts-blocker and the service died with "Feed generator not
found". extracted_repo_home() now handles the bare-root case by falling back
to the owner of the lib file itself. Verified across all four invocation
modes: as the user, via sudo, as root with SUDO_USER unset, and with an
explicit *_DIR override.
The service now reports "Feed refreshed and dnsmasq reloaded (189038 lines)".
/etc/hosts is untouched throughout -- still 176888 lines, still chattr +i,
still bind-mounted by its guard.
Live artifacts were patched via validated temp files, never in-place: the
sudoers drop-in was checked with `visudo -cf` before install, and every
original is backed up under /var/tmp/*.pre-{extract,fix}.
Stale live references: 8 -> 2. The 2 that remain name digital_wellbeing
paths and can only be fixed when that unit is extracted.

testsAndMisc
A collection of personal projects, scripts, and experiments — from a GPS-based phone focus tool to Linux/Arch automation, with CI, linting, and pre-commit hooks across the board.
Highlights
Phone Focus Mode
Location-based app restriction for rooted Android. Automatically disables non-whitelisted apps within 500 m of home using ADB + Magisk. Features Haversine distance calculation, hysteresis to prevent toggling, fail-safe unlock, and state persistence. Bash, Android ADB.
Linux Configuration
Automated Arch Linux setup: fresh-install scripts, i3 window manager config, LaTeX environment, and system tests. Includes documentation and test result logging.
Scripts
Utility scripts for development workflows — build file validation, secret detection, and custom makepkg helpers.
Repository Layout
| Path | Description |
|---|---|
python_pkg/ |
Python packages (each maintained subpackage lives here) |
billsplit/ |
Receipt bill-splitting Flutter app — people, groups, per-item assignment, e-paragon import and xlsx export (Dart, 100 % line coverage gate) |
linux_configuration/ |
Arch Linux setup, i3 config, system maintenance scripts |
focus_owner/ |
Device Owner app enforcing focus mode on the unrooted Pixel 6a — geofence + night curfew, hides apps the phone cannot un-hide (Dart/Kotlin) |
phone_focus_mode/ |
GPS-based Android focus enforcer (rooted-era scripts; config.sh is still the policy source of truth for focus_owner/) |

third_party/ |
Vendored upstream skills/agents |
meta/ |
Repo-wide tooling: pyproject.toml, requirements.txt, .pre-commit-config.yaml, run.sh, lint_python.sh, .fvmrc. Symlinked into the repo root so tools that auto-discover from root keep working. |
Archived / unmaintained projects live in the sibling repository
testsAndMisc-archive.
Tooling
- Python linting: Ruff with all rules enabled (see
meta/pyproject.toml) - Dependencies:
pip install -r meta/requirements.txt(combined runtime + dev) - CI: GitHub Actions — lint, build, and test on push
- Testing: pytest (Python), custom shell-based test harness for scripts
