+  Set up and harden a remote Mac as an always-on headless server. Use when
+  provisioning a new Mac (Mac Mini, Mac Studio, etc.) for server duty via
+  SSH. Covers dev environment (Homebrew, nvim, tmux, node, bun, starship,
+  gh), Nicholai's nvim config from Gitea, server hardening (power mgmt,
+  firewall, consumer service cleanup, Spotlight, SMB, hostname), SSH key
+  auth, and local SSH config. Generates an idempotent setup script on the
+  remote machine. Triggers: "set up mac server", "harden mac", "provision
+  remote mac", "new client server setup", "mac server hardening".
+---
+
+# Mac Server Setup
+
+Provision a remote Mac as a reliable headless server with dev tools and
+security hardening. Outputs an idempotent bash script on the target machine.
+
+## Workflow
+
+### 0. SSH MCP Server Setup
+
+Before anything else, configure an SSH MCP server so Claude Code can
+execute commands on the remote Mac. Add to `~/.mcp.json` on the
+operator's local machine:
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "ssh-<name>": {
+      "command": "npm",
+      "args": [
+        "exec", "ssh-mcp", "--",
+        "--host=<tailscale-ip-or-hostname>",
+        "--port=22",
+        "--user=<username>",
+        "--password=<password>"
+      ]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+For key-based auth (after SSH hardening), replace `--password` with:
+```json
+"--privateKeyPath", "/home/<user>/.ssh/id_ed25519"
+```
+
+Then enable in `~/.claude/settings.local.json`:
+```json
+{
+  "enableAllProjectMcpServers": true
+}
+```
+
+The `ssh-mcp` package is from npm (`npm exec ssh-mcp`). It provides
+`exec` and `sudo-exec` tools. Note: `sudo-exec` requires either
+passwordless sudo on the remote machine or won't work.
+
+To enable passwordless sudo on the Mac (needed for hardening):
+```
+sudo visudo -f /etc/sudoers.d/<username>
+```
+Add: `<username> ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL`
+
+**Important**: the MCP server has a ~1000 char command length limit.
+Write long scripts in chunks using `cat >>` with heredocs.
+
+### 1. Recon
+
+Gather remote machine state before writing anything. Run all commands in
+[references/recon-commands.md](references/recon-commands.md) and report
+findings to inform decisions.
+
+### 2. Elicit Configuration
+
+Ask the user:
+
+- **Hostname** — what to name the machine
+- **Wi-Fi** — keep or disable?
+- **File sharing** — remove SMB or keep with auth only?
+- **SSH** — password-only? Set up key auth?
+- **Nvim config** — clone from Gitea, or skip?
+- **Extra packages** — beyond standard set?
+
+### 3. Generate Setup Script
+
+A reference script is bundled at
+[scripts/setup-and-harden.sh](scripts/setup-and-harden.sh). Copy it to
+the remote machine and customize hostname, paths, and SMB share name
+before running. The script is idempotent — safe to re-run. Structure:
+
+**Part 1 — Dev environment** (details: [references/dev-setup.md](references/dev-setup.md))
+- Homebrew PATH in `.zprofile` (idempotent)
+- Packages: neovim, tmux, git, starship, gh, node (brew), bun (curl)
+- Nvim config clone + config.json + dotfile symlinks
+- Nvim plugin sync via `nvim --headless "+Lazy! sync" +qa`
+- Shell aliases + starship init in .zshrc (idempotent)
+
+**Part 2 — Server hardening** (details: [references/hardening.md](references/hardening.md))
+- Power: no sleep, auto-restart on power loss
+- App firewall: on, allow signed, stealth mode
+- SMB: disable guest access
+- Consumer services: disable 18+ via `launchctl disable gui/$UID/<label>`
+  (Siri, Photos, Games, News, Weather, Tips, Maps, Find My, Home, iTunes)
+- Hostname via `scutil`
+- Spotlight indexing off
+- Software auto-install deferred
+- Screen Sharing (VNC) via ARD kickstart
+- Visual effects disabled (Liquid Glass, transparency, animations)
+
+### 4. SSH Hardening (separate)
+
+Must be done interactively, not in the script:
+
+1. `ssh-copy-id <host>` from local machine
+2. Verify key login works
+3. Edit `/etc/ssh/sshd_config`: `PasswordAuthentication no`,
+   `PermitRootLogin no`, `AcceptEnv TERM`
+4. `sudo launchctl kickstart -k system/com.openssh.sshd`
+
+### 5. Local SSH Config
+
+On the operator's machine, add to `~/.ssh/config`:
+
+```
+Host <alias>
+    HostName <ip>
+    User <user>
+    SetEnv TERM=xterm-256color
+```
+
+The `SetEnv TERM` fixes kitty terminal + tmux over SSH.
+
+### 6. Verify
+
+See [references/verification.md](references/verification.md) for the
+full checklist.
+
+## Key Constraints
+
+- SSH MCP servers typically can't sudo — generate script, user runs it
+- `launchctl disable gui/$UID/<label>` is SIP-safe and persists reboots
+- Never disable SIP or FileVault
+- Keep software update auto-check, just defer auto-install
+- Add `set -ga terminal-overrides ",*:Tc,*:kbs=\177"` to tmux.conf for
+  backspace fix over SSH
+- MCP command length limit (~1000 chars) — write scripts in chunks
+  using `cat >>` with heredocs

+
+Template for Part 1 of the setup script. All steps are idempotent.
+
+## Homebrew PATH
+
+```bash
+if ! grep -q 'brew shellenv' ~/.zprofile 2>/dev/null; then
+  echo 'eval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"' >> ~/.zprofile
+fi
+eval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"
+```
+
+## Packages
+
+Install via brew (skip if present):
+
+```bash
+for pkg in neovim tmux git starship gh node; do
+  if brew list "$pkg" &>/dev/null; then
+    echo "  $pkg: installed"
+  else
+    brew install "$pkg"
+  fi
+done
+```
+
+Bun via official installer (not in Homebrew):
+
+```bash
+if [ -x ~/.bun/bin/bun ]; then
+  echo "  bun: installed"
+else
+  curl -fsSL https://bun.sh/install | bash
+fi
+```
+
+## Nvim Config
+
+Clone Nicholai's config from Gitea:
+
+```bash
+if [ -d ~/.config/nvim/.git ]; then
+  echo "already cloned"
+else
+  mkdir -p ~/.config
+  git clone https://git.nicholai.work/Nicholai/nvim.git ~/.config/nvim
+fi
+```
+
+## config.json
+
+Generate if not present. Adapt paths per machine (Mac uses
+`~/Documents/`, `~/Developer/`, etc.). Template:
+
+```json
+{
+    "paths": {
+        "obsidianVault": "~/Documents/obsidian-vault/",
+        "srcDirectory": "~/Developer/",
+        "scriptsDirectory": "~/scripts/",
+        "wallpaperScript": "~/scripts/pywal/wallpapermenu.sh"
+    },
+    "editor": {
+        "tabSize": 4,
+        "scrollOffset": 8,
+        "theme": "wave"
+    },
+    "ai": {
+        "model": "claude-sonnet-4-5",
+        "openCodeModel": "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5"
+    },
+    "lsp": {
+        "servers": ["ts_ls", "eslint", "jsonls", "html", "cssls", "tailwindcss"]
+    },
+    "treesitter": {
+        "languages": ["lua", "vim", "bash", "javascript", "typescript", "tsx", "json", "yaml", "html", "css"]
+    }
+}
+```
+
+## Dotfile Symlinks
+
+```bash
+ln -sf ~/.config/nvim/dotfiles/.tmux.conf ~/.tmux.conf
+ln -sf ~/.config/nvim/dotfiles/starship.toml ~/.config/starship.toml
+```
+
+## Nvim Plugins
+
+```bash
+nvim --headless "+Lazy! sync" +qa 2>/dev/null || true
+```
+
+## Shell Aliases
+
+Append to `~/.zshrc` if not already present (check for marker
+comment `# Added by nvim dotfiles setup`). Include:
+
+- Git shortcuts: gs, ga, gc, gp, gl
+- Claude aliases: cldy, cldyh, cldys, cldyo
+- Directory aliases: .., ..., ...., home, cd.., chpwd, mkdirg
+- Editor: EDITOR=nvim, VISUAL=nvim, alias vim=nvim
+- Prompt: `eval "$(starship init zsh)"`
+
+## tmux Terminal Fix
+
+Ensure tmux.conf has this line for backspace over SSH:
+
+```
+set -ga terminal-overrides ",*:Tc,*:kbs=\177"
+```

+```
+
+**NOT disabled** (keep these): Safari agents, Zoom, Google/Chrome.
+
+Pattern:
+
+```bash
+UID_NUM=$(id -u)
+for svc in <list>; do
+  launchctl disable "gui/$UID_NUM/$svc" 2>/dev/null && \
+    echo "  disabled: $svc" || echo "  skip: $svc"
+done
+```
+
+## Hostname
+
+```bash
+sudo scutil --set ComputerName "<name>"
+sudo scutil --set HostName "<name>"
+sudo scutil --set LocalHostName "<name>"
+```
+
+## Spotlight
+
+```bash
+sudo mdutil -a -i off
+```
+
+## Screen Sharing (VNC)
+
+Use ARD kickstart — `launchctl load/bootstrap` for screensharing.plist
+fails with I/O errors on modern macOS. The kickstart binary is the
+official way.
+
+Important: must use `-allowAccessFor -allUsers` and set VNC legacy
+mode with an explicit password. Using `-specifiedUsers` can result in
+broken naprivs values that cause auth failures.
+
+```bash
+KICKSTART=/System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Resources/kickstart
+
+# Clean start — deactivate first if re-running
+sudo $KICKSTART -deactivate -stop
+
+# Activate with VNC legacy password (for non-macOS clients)
+sudo $KICKSTART \
+  -activate -configure \
+  -allowAccessFor -allUsers \
+  -privs -all \
+  -clientopts -setvnclegacy -vnclegacy yes \
+  -setvncpw -vncpw <PASSWORD> \
