+# Modern Dotfiles Management System
+
+A comprehensive, intelligent dotfiles management system that provides consistent terminal environments across multiple machines while adapting to different machine types (servers vs development machines).
+
+## 🎯 Project Overview
+
+This dotfiles system solves the common problem of maintaining consistent development environments across multiple machines with different purposes. Whether you're working on a minimal server, a full development machine, or anything in between, this system adapts to provide exactly what you need without bloat.
+
+### Key Problems Solved
+
+1. **Machine Type Awareness**: Servers don't need Claude AI or Docker, but development machines do
+2. **Sync Efficiency**: Updates only when needed, not every terminal session
+3. **Package Management**: Automatically installs and updates tools from multiple sources
+4. **Configuration Consistency**: Same aliases and shortcuts everywhere
+5. **Easy Reset**: Can completely restore system to vanilla state
+
+## 🏗️ Architecture

+sshuttle-vpn               # Base VPN command
+sshuttle-txtwire           # Specific VPN connection
+```
+
+### Git Remote URL Conversion
+The system includes convenient functions to convert git remote URLs between SSH and HTTPS formats:
+
+```bash
+# Automatic conversion (detects current format and converts to opposite)
+git-remote-toggle          # Toggle between SSH/HTTPS for origin
+git-remote-toggle upstream # Toggle for specific remote
+
+# Convert to specific format
+git-remote-ssh             # Convert origin to SSH format
+git-remote-https           # Convert origin to HTTPS format
+git-remote-ssh upstream    # Convert specific remote to SSH
+
+# Advanced usage with confirmation prompts
+git-convert origin ssh     # Convert origin to SSH with confirmation
+git-convert origin https   # Convert origin to HTTPS with confirmation
+```
+
+**Supported URL formats:**
+- SSH: `git@github.com:user/repo.git` 
+- HTTPS: `https://github.com/user/repo.git`
+- HTTPS (no .git): `https://github.com/user/repo`
+
+**Example usage:**
+```bash
+# Check current remote
+git remote -v
+# origin  https://github.com/user/repo.git (fetch)
+# origin  https://github.com/user/repo.git (push)
+
+# Convert to SSH
+git-remote-ssh
+# 🔄 Converting git remote 'origin'
+#    From (https): https://github.com/user/repo.git
+#    To   (ssh): git@github.com:user/repo.git
+# Proceed with conversion? [y/N]: y
+# ✅ Successfully converted remote 'origin'
+
+# Toggle back to HTTPS
+git-remote-toggle
+# 🔄 Converting git remote 'origin'
+#    From (ssh): git@github.com:user/repo.git  
+#    To   (https): https://github.com/user/repo.git
+```
+
+## 🔧 Technical Implementation
+
+### Profile Detection Algorithm
+The system uses a scoring algorithm to detect machine type:
+
+```bash
+# Server indicators (weight)
+- systemd active (30 points)
+- SSH connection (25 points)  
+- Multi-user target (20 points)
+- No logged users (10 points)
+
+# Development indicators  
+- Development tools present (30 points)
+- Code editor available (25 points)
+- Dev directories exist (20 points)
+- GUI environment (15 points)
+
+# Personal indicators
+- Personal directories (20 points)
+- Browser available (25 points)
+- Personal home path (15 points)
+```
+
+### Update Checking Strategy
+```bash
+# Fast check methods
+npm outdated -g --json      # No installs, just version comparison
+GitHub API calls            # Latest release info
+Local version parsing       # Current installed versions
+
+# Selective updates
+Only outdated packages      # Skip up-to-date ones
+Profile filtering          # Server won't check Claude/Gemini
+Batch operations          # Update multiple efficiently
+```
+
+### Sync Optimization
+```bash
+# Timing controls
+24-hour auto-sync limit    # Prevent excessive git operations
+5-minute manual override   # Allow frequent manual syncing
+Background execution       # Non-blocking terminal startup
+
+# Change detection
+Git fetch + compare        # Check for remote changes
+Local diff detection       # Handle local modifications
+Automatic stash/restore    # Preserve local changes
+```
+
+## 🛡️ Safety Features
