full read: fix the set -e footguns a full run would have hit
Read the whole thing — 2392 lines of entry point and 2700 of libraries — looking for what shellcheck cannot see. shellcheck itself is clean at error level; its warnings are cross-file false positives and one deliberate tilde in a display string. Everything below is a real defect. ── The Git section aborted on any machine where git was not already configured ── `git config --global --get <key>` exits NON-ZERO when the key is simply unset, and `VAR="$(git_get …)"` propagates that under `set -e`. So on a fresh machine — the case this script exists for — the section died at its first assignment, before printing anything, and took the remaining nine sections with it. It passed every earlier test because those harnesses sourced the section under a `bash -c` with no `set -e`. Verified now against a genuinely fresh account with the real script: the section completes and writes a correct .gitconfig. ── An optional step failing aborted the whole run ── Twelve functions ended on a command that can fail — `systemctl enable --now earlyoom`, `systemctl restart systemd-logind`, `chsh`, `sysctl -w`, `chown -R`, the oh-my-zsh installer, and others. Called as plain commands under `set -e`, any one of them failing ends the script, so a masked unit or a container without systemd would abort a 28-section run over an optional improvement. They now return 0 explicitly and the callers verify the outcome instead — which also fixed a lie: the sleep section printed "sleep disabled, logind reloaded" whether or not the restart had worked. It now checks the targets and the logind values and reports honestly. ── chown user:user assumed the primary group is named after the user ── True on Debian and Ubuntu, which create a group per user. Not true for an account from LDAP, or made with `useradd -g users`, or on an image with a shared group — there `install -g <user>` fails with "invalid group" and the step aborts. Proved it against an account whose primary group is `oddgroup`: the old form fails, the new one gets ownership right. Eight call sites now ask `id -gn`. ── Also hardened ── agent_path and current_editor gained `|| true` for the same reason git_get needed it: "nothing is set" is an answer, not a failure. Verified afterwards: shellcheck clean at error level, every section runs standalone without aborting, and the two apparent failures in that sweep are correct behaviour — Timezone and Git refusing an empty answer from /dev/null.

port the firewall, last, and bind the Docker rules to the real interface
Last in the run for the reason the original gave: enabling a firewall is the one step that can cut the connection it is running over. The security bug is in the shipped rules. ufw-docker-rules.conf hardcodes eth0 in all three of its rules. Docker publishes container ports by writing its own iptables rules underneath ufw — DOCKER-USER is the hook that lets ufw have a say at all — so on a machine with predictable interface names (ens18, enp1s0, most VPS images) none of those rules match, the final DROP never fires, and every published port is open to the internet while `ufw status` reports active. A firewall that says it is working and is not is worse than no firewall. The rules are now substituted with the interface the machine actually uses, verified by applying them against a stubbed ens18. Order inside the section is the other thing that matters: OpenSSH is allowed BEFORE anything is enabled, unconditionally, because a firewall enabled without an ssh rule on a machine reached over ssh needs a console to fix. The prompt says so, and says to open a second session before closing the current one. tailscale0 is checked and offered, because the default is deny inbound and the tailnet is an inbound interface like any other — without that rule Officer is unreachable over the tailnet while Tailscale reports itself connected. A correction to something I said while writing this: I reported that this host was missing its tailscale0 rule. It is not. I had run `ufw status verbose | head -8`, which cut the output above the rule list. The full status shows it allowed, and nothing was wrong. That leaves the NOT PORTED list empty.

port the static IP section, and offer the actual fix for the reboot-changes-IP problem
Homelab only, as it should always have been. On a vps the provider's DHCP is
authoritative and already stable, and pinning an address there is how an instance
is stranded; on dev the machine moves between networks and a fixed address is the
opposite of what is wanted. Both say so rather than skipping quietly.
The more useful change is that a static address is no longer the only answer
offered, because it is not the right one for the problem it was added to solve.
A fresh Ubuntu box taking a new IP on every reboot is not the router
misbehaving. systemd-networkd's ClientIdentifier defaults to `duid` — man
systemd.network is explicit — so the machine introduces itself to DHCP with an
RFC 4361 client ID built from an IAID and a DUID. This host shows it:
DHCP4 Client ID: IAID:0x56504d98/DUID
Consumer routers key leases and reservations on the MAC. The two never match, so
the router does not recognise the machine as one it has seen and hands out the
next free address — and a reservation pinned to the MAC is never honoured, which
is the part that makes the router look broken.
`dhcp-identifier: mac` in netplan sets ClientIdentifier=mac and the router sees
what it expects. DHCP keeps working, reservations start being honoured, and
nothing is pinned on the machine. That is now the first option, with the static
address second and still carrying the original's warnings.
It is written as its own 99- netplan file and merged with whatever the installer
or cloud-init already wrote, rather than this script parsing and rewriting their
YAML. Deliberately NOT applied: it takes effect at the next reboot, which is the
moment the problem shows up anyway, so there is nothing to gain by dropping the
network now. `netplan generate` validates before either file is kept, and the
file is removed again if it does not.
Found and fixed while testing: dhcp_client_identifier parsed the value with
awk -F': *' and took field 2 — but the value is itself "IAID:0x…/DUID", so the
split yielded "IAID", the DUID test failed, and the helper reported "mac" on a
machine that was plainly sending a DUID. It would have told the user the opposite
of the truth about their own problem. Reads everything after the first colon now.
Verified on this host: correctly reports duid, explains why, and renders both the
homelab and vps paths.

port the DNS section, as a choice rather than a decision
The original hardcoded Cloudflare plus Google with no way to say otherwise, and
rewrote /etc/systemd/resolved.conf wholesale — discarding DNSSEC, DNSOverTLS,
Domains and Cache if anything had set them, without mentioning it had. The
settings are a drop-in now, and the resolver is picked from a list with a
"keep what is there" that is the default.
The part worth having explicit is which layer is being changed. With
systemd-resolved there are two:
per-link what DHCP handed each interface, and what Tailscale installs on its
own. These answer for that link's domains — the provider's internal
names, the tailnet — and are printed by this step precisely to show
they are NOT being touched. Overriding them is how private
networking quietly stops resolving.
global the resolver used when no link claims the query. This is the one
the step sets.
On this host that distinction is live: eth0 has Hetzner's resolvers and
tailscale0 has 100.100.100.100, which is what answers ts.pastilhas.dev. Both are
left alone.
The drop-in is named 99- because systemd reads drop-ins in lexical order and the
LAST value wins. That is the opposite of sshd, whose drop-in three files away in
this same directory has to sort FIRST. Both are stated where they are written,
because getting it backwards fails silently in either direction.
resolv.conf is checked for actually pointing at resolved's stub before the
drop-in is trusted to do anything — a machine where something replaced the
symlink with a static file bypasses resolved entirely.
Resolution is tested afterwards rather than assumed. A resolver that does not
answer makes every later step fail for a reason that has nothing to do with it,
so that failure is reported and recorded rather than swallowed.
The choice names what each provider actually is, including that a resolver sees
every name the machine looks up.
Verified both paths against this host: keep reports unchanged, Quad9 renders the
right addresses, and the per-link display shows Hetzner and Tailscale correctly.
