deploy-themes

name: deploy-themes description: Deploy editor and terminal themes from this repository to their local installation paths (Helix, Zed, Rio, Yazi, Lazygit, OpenCode, Lexer)

Deployment Targets

Helix

• Target: /Users/wk/Source/helix/runtime/themes/
• Method: Copy files (not symlinks)
• Files per theme:
  • <theme-name>.toml (base theme)
  • <theme-name>-transparent.toml (transparent variant)
• Source: <theme-name>/editors/helix/

Zed

• Target: ~/Library/Application Support/Zed/extensions/installed/
• Method: Symlink the editors/zed/ directory as <theme-name>-theme
• Symlink format: <theme-name>-theme -> /Users/wk/Source/deep-focus-themes/<theme-name>/editors/zed

Rio Terminal

• Target: ~/.config/rio/themes/
• Method: Copy files (not symlinks)
• Files per theme: <theme-name>.toml
• Source: <theme-name>/terminals/rio/themes/
• Note: Not all themes have Rio support. Only deploy if the source file exists.

Yazi

• Target: ~/.config/yazi/flavors/
• Method: Copy the entire <theme-name>.yazi/ directory
• Source: <theme-name>/terminals/yazi/<theme-name>.yazi/
• Required files inside <theme-name>.yazi/:
  • flavor.toml — UI theme config
  • tmtheme.xml — code preview syntax highlighting
  • README.md — description and usage
  • LICENSE — flavor license
  • LICENSE-tmtheme — tmTheme license
• Note: Not all themes have Yazi support. Only deploy if the source directory exists.

Lazygit

• Target: ~/Library/Application Support/lazygit/ (macOS) or ~/.config/lazygit/ (Linux)
• Method: Merge into the user's config.yml using lazygit's multi-file config feature — do not overwrite config.yml directly.
• Source: <theme-name>/terminals/lazygit/<theme-name>.yml
• Note: Not all themes have lazygit support. Only deploy if the source file exists.

OpenCode

• Target: ~/.config/opencode/themes/
• Method: Copy file
• Source: <theme-name>/editors/opencode/<theme-name>.json
• Activate: Set "theme": "<theme-name>" in ~/.config/opencode/tui.json — replace the existing "theme" value in place.
• Note: Not all themes have opencode support. Only deploy if the source file exists.

Lexer

• Target: ~/.config/lexer/themes/
• Method: Copy file
• Source: <theme-name>/editors/lexer/<theme-name>.toml
• Activate: Select with Space t in the app, or launch with lexer --theme <theme-name>.
• Note: Not all themes have Lexer support. Only deploy if the source file exists. Theme is hot-reloaded on save.

Deployment Procedure

1. Deploy to Helix

For each theme directory in the repo:

cp <theme-name>/editors/helix/<theme-name>.toml /Users/wk/Source/helix/runtime/themes/
cp <theme-name>/editors/helix/<theme-name>-transparent.toml /Users/wk/Source/helix/runtime/themes/

2. Deploy to Zed

For each theme that has editors/zed/:

INSTALL_DIR="$HOME/Library/Application Support/Zed/extensions/installed"
rm -f "$INSTALL_DIR/<theme-name>-theme"
ln -s "/Users/wk/Source/deep-focus-themes/<theme-name>/editors/zed" "$INSTALL_DIR/<theme-name>-theme"

3. Deploy to Rio

For each theme that has terminals/rio/themes/<theme-name>.toml:

cp <theme-name>/terminals/rio/themes/<theme-name>.toml ~/.config/rio/themes/

4. Deploy to Yazi

For each theme that has terminals/yazi/<theme-name>.yazi/:

cp -r <theme-name>/terminals/yazi/<theme-name>.yazi ~/.config/yazi/flavors/

6. Deploy to OpenCode

For each theme that has editors/opencode/<theme-name>.json:

mkdir -p ~/.config/opencode/themes
cp <theme-name>/editors/opencode/<theme-name>.json ~/.config/opencode/themes/

Then activate by editing ~/.config/opencode/tui.json — replace the "theme" value:

{
  "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/tui.json",
  "theme": "<theme-name>"
}

To switch themes, update the "theme" value to a different theme name.

7. Deploy to Lexer

For each theme that has editors/lexer/<theme-name>.toml:

mkdir -p ~/.config/lexer/themes
cp <theme-name>/editors/lexer/<theme-name>.toml ~/.config/lexer/themes/

Then select the theme with Space t in Lexer, or launch with lexer --theme <theme-name>.

5. Deploy to Lazygit

Replace the gui.theme block in the user's existing config.yml directly.

Config file location:

• macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/lazygit/config.yml
• Linux: ~/.config/lazygit/config.yml

Procedure:

1. Read the current config.yml to locate the existing gui.theme block.
2. Replace only the theme: keys with the values from <theme-name>/terminals/lazygit/<theme-name>.yml.
3. Leave all other settings (sidePanelWidth, pagers, etc.) untouched.
4. No env vars or shell profile changes needed — lazygit picks up the change immediately on next launch.

To switch themes, repeat the procedure with a different theme's .yml file.

Verification

After deployment, confirm installed files match the repo:

# Helix
diff <theme>/editors/helix/<theme>.toml /Users/wk/Source/helix/runtime/themes/<theme>.toml

# Zed
readlink "$HOME/Library/Application Support/Zed/extensions/installed/<theme>-theme"

# Rio
diff <theme>/terminals/rio/themes/<theme>.toml ~/.config/rio/themes/<theme>.toml

# Yazi
ls ~/.config/yazi/flavors/<theme>.yazi/

# Lazygit
cat ~/.config/lazygit/themes/<theme>.yml
# or check the env var is set:
echo $LG_CONFIG_FILE

# OpenCode
ls ~/.config/opencode/themes/<theme>.json
cat ~/.config/opencode/tui.json

# Lexer
diff <theme>/editors/lexer/<theme>.toml ~/.config/lexer/themes/<theme>.toml

Rollback

To remove a deployed theme:

# Helix
rm /Users/wk/Source/helix/runtime/themes/<theme-name>.toml
rm /Users/wk/Source/helix/runtime/themes/<theme-name>-transparent.toml

# Zed
rm "$HOME/Library/Application Support/Zed/extensions/installed/<theme-name>-theme"

# Rio
rm ~/.config/rio/themes/<theme-name>.toml

# Yazi
rm -rf ~/.config/yazi/flavors/<theme-name>.yazi

# Lazygit — remove copied file and unset/update LG_CONFIG_FILE in shell profile
rm ~/.config/lazygit/themes/<theme-name>.yml

# OpenCode — remove copied file and revert tui.json theme value
rm ~/.config/opencode/themes/<theme-name>.json

# Lexer
rm ~/.config/lexer/themes/<theme-name>.toml
