Overview

What fur is responsible for

Fur is the single entry-point you use to run, observe, and recover a Foxora machine. Every category below is a first-class command group with structured JSON output:

• Application lifecycle — install, remove, search, info, list, upgrade, update.
• Profile lifecycle — create, switch, list, rollback.
• System lifecycle — rebuild, rollback, gc, doctor, repair, status.
• Service operations — thin systemd wrappers (start/stop/enable/…).
• Logs & telemetry — terminal tail and a web dashboard.
• Apt habit compatibility — fur apt … plus drop-in apt / apt-get wrappers.
• Flatpak control plane — install/remove/list/info plus remote management.
• Foxora Kits — signature verification, pinning, and immutable provenance attestations.
• MCP control plane — fur mcp … with top-level aliases (registry, daemon, budget, sandbox, tools).

Design principles

• Structured by default. Every command supports --json; the envelope is stable and versioned (fur.v1).
• Safe by default. System writes are transactional with restore-on-failure; managed package blocks are bracketed by markers; signed kits enforce trust + pin policy.
• Habit-friendly. Anything you'd type into apt has a working fur equivalent — including the wrapper binaries.
• Observability built in. Every command records argv, duration, success, and error category to local telemetry; fur logs --web opens a browser dashboard.
