What

  • docs/watchlist.md: a single place for tools and changes that were evaluated and parked as "not yet". Each entry has what it is, why it matters here, what stops us, and a concrete revisit when condition.
  • One line in CLAUDE.md's Key files, so sessions check the watchlist before re-researching something and add to it when an evaluation ends in "not yet".

First entry: pymacos. Its settings.export()/apply() is a read-compare-write engine that could back or replace .macos (Dock contents, default apps, shortcuts, login items), but the repo was five days old at evaluation. Revisit around 2027-01, once releases slow down.

Verified

  • docs is in .chezmoiignore, so nothing new is deployed to $HOME
  • Public-clone review: no identity, account, host or path leaks, and no dependence on an overlay; its one wording suggestion is applied

πŸ€– Generated with Claude Code

… with pymacos

Evaluations that end in "not yet" used to live only in a conversation, so
the next time the tool came up it was researched from scratch. Each entry
records what the thing is, why it matters to this setup, what stops us,
and the concrete condition for another look, so revisiting is a check
rather than a re-evaluation. CLAUDE.md's Key files points sessions at it.

First entry: pymacos, whose settings.export/apply is a read-compare-write
engine that could back or replace .macos, but whose repo was five days old
at evaluation.
