My dotfiles in a nutshell.

- I want to add a shell function that invoked Claude in a VM via Lima using API keys stored in 1Pass

- But that means I need a way of templating the YAML file that will define Claude's VM and a reliable way of syncing state between it and my machine

- I could use a templating language like Jinja or Starlark, but that's another dependency for a relatively simple job

- Also, what if I want to use Pi or opencode someday?

- So I spent more time than I care to admit hacking a Bash function that replaces template variables in Lima YAML files that doesn't throw a cow when you throw in single or double quotes.

(I got my Claude VM function thing working, and it works really well!)

What was your solution for this? Keeping hosts reliably synced across the network is a perpetual source of frustration for me.
