Maintain the Stow-managed Neovim config in ~/.dotfiles/home/.config/nvim for Neovim 0.12+, lazy.nvim, vim.lsp.config, and nvim-treesitter main. Use to validate or repair Neovim, change plugins, diagnose measured startup regressions, or fix keymaps and LSP. Route whole-dotfiles health checks to audit and non-Neovim terminal configuration to shell-env.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Neovim configuration

The source is `~/.dotfiles/home/.config/nvim/`, linked into `~/.config/nvim/` by the repository's single `home` Stow package. Read `~/.dotfiles/README.md` and the current config before editing; the repository currently requires Neovim 0.12+, `vim.lsp.config`, and `nvim-treesitter` main.

## Layout

```text
~/.dotfiles/home/.config/nvim/
├── init.lua
├── lua/kriscard/       # core options, keymaps, autocmds, lazy bootstrap
├── lua/plugins/        # lazy.nvim plugin specs
├── after/ftplugin/     # filetype-local behavior
└── lazy-lock.json
```

Use `dotfiles sync --dry-run` from `~/.dotfiles` when link structure changes. Ordinary edits to an already linked source file do not need re-Stowing.

## Classify the branch

- Health failure or broken config → run the validation workflow; load `references/config.md` for structure, keymaps, or LSP.
- Plugin add, removal, replacement, or maintenance check → load `references/plugins.md`.
- Measured startup regression → load `references/performance.md`.
- Whole-dotfiles health issue → route to audit.
- Non-Neovim terminal config → route to shell-env.

Load only references reached by the branch.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add kriscard/skills/neovim@sha256:8c31c811f87c82de

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261007.08a0dc2, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
