Structure #

Each tool's configuration lives in its own topic directory under ~/.config/. Topics are loaded by _load_zsh_topic in .zshrc, which handles dependency resolution and environment/alias sourcing:

# Simple topic — just source env and aliases
_load_zsh_topic "bat" --source-env --source-aliases --deps xdg --deps mise

# Topic with shell activation
_load_zsh_topic "starship" --source-env --deps xdg --deps mise
eval "$(starship init zsh)"

Each topic directory may contain:

File	Purpose
`init.zsh`	Calls `_load_zsh_topic` with options
`env.sh`	Environment variables
`aliases.sh`	Shell aliases
