Starship

The cross-shell prompt — a minimal left prompt, a clock on the right, and a cyberdream palette.

Starship renders the prompt in fish, bash, and zsh from one config file.

Source (repo)	Target
`dot_config/starship.toml`	`~/.config/starship.toml`

The file is not a template and applies on every role. starship is in .chezmoidata/packages.yaml for pacman and Homebrew and is installed by .chezmoiscripts/run_onchange_before_10-packages.sh.tmpl.

Shell integration

Shell	Init
fish	`conf.d/40-tools.fish` runs `starship init fish`, then `config.fish` runs it again and calls `enable_transience`
bash	`eval "$(starship init bash)"` in `~/.bashrc`
zsh	`eval "$(starship init zsh)"` in `~/.zshrc`

With transience in fish, past prompts in the scrollback collapse to the output of starship_transient_prompt_func (starship module character, the ❯ alone) and starship_transient_rprompt_func (starship module time). See fish.

Layout

"$schema" = 'https://starship.rs/config-schema.json'
palette = "cyberdream"

format = """
$username\
$hostname\
$directory\
$git_branch\
$git_state\
$git_status\
$cmd_duration\
$python\
$character"""

right_format = """$time"""

The left prompt is a single line with no line break before $character. Only the nine listed modules can appear; every other starship module is left out of format. $username and $hostname keep their defaults, so they appear only over SSH or as root.

Modules

Module	Format	Style	Notes
`directory`	default	`blue`
`git_branch`	`[$branch]($style)`	`bright-black`	Branch name only, no symbol or “on”
`git_state`	`$[$state( $progress_current/$progress_total)]($style)$`	`bright-black`	For example `(REBASING 2/5)`
`git_status`	`[[(*$conflicted$untracked$modified$staged$renamed$deleted)](218) ($ahead_behind$stashed)]($style)`	`cyan`	See below
`cmd_duration`	`[$duration]($style)`	`yellow`	Default threshold
`python`	`[$virtualenv]($style)`	`bright-black`	`detect_extensions = []`, `detect_files = []`
`time`	`[$time]($style)`	`bright-black`	`disabled = false`, `time_format = '%-I:%M %p'` (for example `3:07 PM`)
`character`	default		Symbols below

git_status. The conflicted, untracked, modified, staged, renamed, and deleted symbols are all set to a zero-width space. Any dirty state therefore shows a single * in 256-color 218 (pink) instead of per-state counts. stashed is ≡. ahead_behind keeps starship’s default arrows and is drawn in cyan.

python. With both detect lists empty, the module does not trigger on .py files or pyproject.toml. It shows only the name of an active virtualenv.

Prompt character

State	Symbol
Last command succeeded	`❯` in `purple`
Last command failed	`❯` in `red`
Vi normal mode (fish)	`❮` in `green`

fish runs in vi mode (key bindings), so vimcmd_symbol appears there. zsh uses the emacs keymap and never shows it.

Palette

palette = "cyberdream" selects the [palettes.cyberdream] table, colors from cyberdream.nvim. Every named color in the module styles resolves through this table.

Name	Normal	`bright-*`	`dim-*`
black	`#1e2124`	`#4a4d4f`	`#1c1f22`
red	`#ff6e5e`	`#ff8b7e`	`#d05c50`
green	`#5eff6c`	`#7eff89`	`#4fd05b`
yellow	`#f1ff5e`	`#f3ff7e`	`#c5d050`
blue	`#5ea1ff`	`#7eb3ff`	`#4f85d1`
purple	`#bd5eff`	`#ff7ef3`	`#d050c6`
cyan	`#5ef1ff`	`#7ef3ff`	`#4fc5d1`
white	`#ffffff`	`#ffffff`	`#d0d0d1`

bright-black (#4a4d4f) is the muted gray used for the branch, git state, virtualenv, and clock. The dim-* entries are defined but no module uses them.
