I am having a hard time seeing that the install config isn't just basically bash with some aliases...but I still haven't had my second cup of coffee.

Given your username, do you have the same reaction to bundler?

Big fan! Was like magic at first but now I have a big bunch of Aptfiles to deal with instead... Currently working on solving that with the next-generation tool apt-bundle-bunch, which has a simple declarative format to manage your apt-bundle projects in an Aptbundlefile. It's already great for agents and Im working with Claude on a curl|sh install for the v1.

Good luck share the progress and let us know how it goes. Is it similar to nix? but from what I can feel, is intending to be simpler?

Looking at internal/commands/install.go, it only installs new packages, but doesn't uninstall removed ones. That's the biggest benefit of Brew bundle gone.

BTW how much of it is vibe coded?
