Nexus

Home Command Center — Discovery + Config Management + AI

Nexus is a single Rust binary that gives you a complete picture of your machine:

  • Deep-index your home directory with instant full-text search
  • Manage configs for 20+ tools — backup, diff, restore, profile
  • Track changes in real time with a filesystem daemon
  • Ask AI questions about your filesystem via Claude

Three surfaces — CLI, TUI dashboard, Web UI — all sharing the same core.

Why Nexus?

Your home directory is a sprawling, undocumented system. Config files scattered across ~/.config, dotfiles everywhere, projects in various states. Nexus brings order:

  • One scan indexes everything into SQLite with FTS5 — search is instant
  • One backup snapshots all your configs — restore any tool to any point in time
  • One daemon watches for changes — never lose track of what changed and when
  • One question to AI — “what rust projects do I have?” gets a real answer
