A Senior Linux Systems Engineer in your IDE. Safe, idempotent, FHS-compliant system administration powered by Claude Code.
Dry-run preview and explicit confirmation before any destructive operation. No rm -rf without your approval.
Every path follows the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard. Predictable. POSIX-compliant. Production-ready.
Every operation is safe to run twice. No side effects. No surprises. Pure systems engineering discipline.
