Small principles, durable systems.
Short reminders for maintaining tools that remain understandable after the first setup.
Make the shell boring.
Prefer defaults that can be inspected, backed up, and explained without a diagram the size of a wall.
Pin the important parts.
Record versions for the pieces that affect compatibility, then leave the rest easy to update.
Let logs answer questions.
Keep operational output short, timestamped, and useful when the original context is gone.
Keep the escape hatch.
A tested backup and a reversible change are part of the feature, not an afterthought.
