Canonical, agent-agnostic procedure for bringing a new box into the
flake, from a booted installer through to a deployable system, plus a
thin Claude Code skill pointing at it -- same split as the nixpkgs
upgrade procedure.
Records the conventions that were not written down anywhere: sgdisk
plus an LVM PV for the nix and persist volumes, adopting the
installer's SSH host keys so secrets can be encrypted before first
boot, and taking whatever show-hw-config emits that the flake's own
modules do not already set.
Also notes in AGENTS.md that a changed recipient list should be
re-encrypted per file with ragenix --rekey-one; --rekey rewrites every
secret in secrets/ and buries the actual change.
