Create a custom Lima template `homeless-docker.yaml` derived from the standard `docker` template. This avoids mounting the host's `~` directory, which is not overridable via `default.yaml`. * pkgs/local/lima-custom-templates: add a package to generate custom templates * home-manager/lima-host.nix: link the custom templates recursively to ~/.lima/_templates/ * .github/workflows/lima-guest.yml: update CI to use the new template * README.md: update setup instructions Assisted-by: Gemini CLI <gemini-cli@google.com>

* config/lima/_config/default.yaml: Clarify the intent of matching absolute paths to ensure 'limactl shell' can synchronize directories. * pkgs/local/lima-custom-templates: Improve readability of CLI flags description in meta.longDescription. Assisted-by: Gemini CLI <gemini-cli@google.com>
Lima's default.yaml has a special configuration intended for global defaults rather than a standalone template, so generating a 'homeless' version of it might not behave as expected. Assisted-by: Gemini CLI <gemini-cli@google.com>
Use `limactl validate` in `installCheckPhase` to ensure all generated homeless templates are valid YAML and follow Lima's schema. This uses `writableTmpDirAsHomeHook` to provide a temporary HOME directory for `limactl`. Assisted-by: Gemini CLI <gemini-cli@google.com>
Automatically create a symlink from `~/repos` in the guest home to the mounted host `repos` directory. This restores compatibility with tools like `ghq` and `cdrepo` while still allowing `limactl shell` to synchronize the working directory using absolute host paths.
