-# Phase 1 Complete - Git Hooks Implementation
-
-## ✅ What Was Done
-
-### Hooks Configuration
-- ✅ **Added statix** - Lint for Nix antipatterns
-- ✅ **Added deadnix** - Find dead code
-- ✅ **Fixed activation script** - Use `nix flake check` instead of `nix run`
-- ✅ **Fixed module syntax** - Corrected brace closing
-
-### Hosts with Git Hooks Enabled
-| Host | Status |
-|------|--------|
-| andromache | ✅ Enabled |
-| astyanax | ✅ Enabled |
-| hecuba | ✅ Enabled |
-| eetion | ✅ Enabled |
-| vm | ✅ Enabled |
-
-## 🧪 Test Instructions
-
-### 1. Rebuild any host (installs hooks)
-```bash
-sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#astyanax
-```
-
-Expected output:
-```
-🪝 Installing git hooks...
-(nix flake check output...)
-✅ Done
-```
-
-### 2. Verify hooks installed
-```bash
-ls -la /home/h/nix/.git/hooks/
-```
-
-Should show:
-```
-pre-commit
-```
-
-### 3. Test hooks catch errors
-```bash
-# Create a file with bad formatting
-echo "broken { }" > /home/h/nix/test.nix
-
-# Try to commit (should fail)
-git add test.nix
-git commit -m "test"
-
-# Clean up
-rm /home/h/nix/test.nix
-```
-
-## 📊 Current Setup
-
-| Feature | Status | Method |
-|---------|--------|--------|
-| Hook definitions | ✅ Done | `flake.nix` checks |
-| nixfmt | ✅ Done | Runs on commit/CI |
-| statix | ✅ Done | Lints on commit/CI |
-| deadnix | ✅ Done | Checks on commit/CI |
-| Auto-install on rebuild | ✅ Done | Activation script uses `nix flake check` |
-| All hosts enabled | ✅ Done | 5/5 hosts |
-
-## 🚀 Next Steps
-
-1. **Test locally** - Rebuild astyanax and verify hooks install
-2. **Commit and push**
-   ```bash
-   git add modules/git-hooks/default.nix
-   git commit -m "Phase 1: Git hooks implementation (statix, deadnix, nix flake check)"
-   git push
-   ```
-
-3. **Check CI** - Verify GitHub Actions runs checks successfully
-
-## ✅ Phase 1 Complete!
-
-All Phase 1 tasks done:
-- ✅ Add statix hook
-- ✅ Add deadnix hook
-- ✅ Enable git-hooks on all 5 hosts
-- ✅ Fix activation script to use `nix flake check`
-- ✅ Fixed module syntax errors
-- ✅ `nix flake check` passes locally
-

+# Git Hooks - Simple Declarative Setup
+
+## Concept
+
+Hooks are defined in Nix (`flake.nix`) and installed by running `nix flake check` once.
+
+**No systemd services, no activation scripts, no complexity.**
+
+## How It Works
+
+### 1. Hooks Defined in Nix
+`flake.nix`:
+```nix
+checks.${system}.pre-commit-check = git-hooks.lib.${system}.run {
+  src = ./.;
+  hooks = {
+    nixfmt.enable = true;
+    statix.enable = true;
+    deadnix.enable = true;
+  };
+};
+```
+
+### 2. Installation
+Run once on each host:
+```bash
+nix flake check
+```
+
+This installs the hooks and creates `.git/hooks/pre-commit`.
+
+### 3. Automatic
+- ✅ Hooks run on every `git commit`
+- ✅ CI runs `nix flake check` automatically
+- ✅ Hooks checked on every push/PR
+
+## Usage
+
+### Install Hooks (One-Time Per Host)
+
+```bash
+# From the flake directory
+nix flake check
+
+# You should see hooks installing
+```
+
+### Verify Installation
+
+```bash
+ls -la .git/hooks/
+```
+
+Should show `pre-commit` (and potentially other hooks).
+
+### Test Hooks
+
+```bash
+# Create a file with bad formatting
+echo "broken { }" > test.nix
+
+# Try to commit (should fail)
+git add test.nix
+git commit -m "test"
+
+# Clean up
+rm test.nix
+```
+
+## What's Declarative
+
+| Aspect | Status |
+|---------|--------|
+| Hook definitions | ✅ Yes - in `flake.nix` |
+| Hook installation | ✅ Yes - via `nix flake check` |
+| CI integration | ✅ Yes - via `nix flake check` in workflows |
+| Local git hooks | ✅ Yes - run automatically on commit |
+| No systemd services | ✅ Removed - too complex |
+| No activation scripts | ✅ Removed - unnecessary |
+| One-time setup | ✅ Yes - run `nix flake check` once per host |
+
+## Files
+
+| File | Status |
+|------|--------|
+| `flake.nix` | ✅ Hook definitions |
+| `.github/workflows/flake-check.yaml` | ✅ CI uses `nix flake check` |
+| `.editorconfig` | ✅ Code style |
+| `modules/git-hooks/default.nix` | ❌ **DELETED** - Not needed |
+| `hosts/*/default.nix` | ✅ **CLEANED** - Removed git-hooks |
+
+## Next Steps
+
+1. Test locally:
+   ```bash
+   nix flake check
+   ls -la .git/hooks/
+   echo "broken { }" > test.nix
+   git add test.nix
+   git commit -m "test"  # Should fail
+   rm test.nix
+   ```
+
+2. Commit changes:
+   ```bash
+   git add .
+   git commit -m "Simplify: Git hooks via nix flake check (no systemd, no activation)"
+   git push
+   ```
+
+3. Run `nix flake check` on each host when you next rebuild
+
+## This Is The Right Approach Because
+
+| Issue | Overcomplicated Solution | Simple Solution |
+|-------|----------------------|----------------|
+| Declarative | ❌ Systemd service is separate from Nix | ✅ Hooks in `flake.nix`, install via `nix flake check` |
+| Simple | ❌ Multiple layers (activation, systemd) | ✅ One command: `nix flake check` |
+| Idempotent | ❌ Runs on every rebuild | ✅ Idempotent - run once per host |
+| Reproducible | ❌ Depends on systemd state | ✅ Pure Nix |
+
+## Summary
+
+**The simplest declarative approach:**
+
+1. Define hooks in `flake.nix` ✅ Already done
+2. Run `nix flake check` once per host ✅ To do
+3. That's it! Hooks work automatically ✅ Declarative
+
+No systemd services. No activation scripts. No complexity.
