✨ REFORM-CHECK ✨

okay bestie, so reform-check is a whole user command — it's literally called check your setup and that's exactly what it does 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

reform-check [--help] [--mirror={mntre.com,reform.debian.net}]
[--offline]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So like… this script does a vibe check on your MNT reform setup — it checks the integrity of it. No cap. And it's built for two main use-cases, which are:

  1. somebody has a problem with their reform and to debug the problem it would be useful to know how their system differs from the default
  2. somebody installed their system several months ago and now wants to find out which things have since been added or changed in the defaults that they might want to apply to their running setup as well

And here's the part that's giving main character energy: how you run it changes everything 🔥

  • Run it as non-root and you get a diff between the files in /etc/skel and those in your $HOME. Casual. Personal. Yours.
  • Run it as root and it does the system-wide checks. Big girl pants on. 👑

💖 OPTIONS 💖

  • --help — Display this help and exit. Short, sweet, iconic.
  • --mirror=MIRROR — Force MIRROR, either mntre.com or reform.debian.net. You're picking the mirror fr fr.
  • --offline — Disable all checks that require an internet connection and a filled apt cache. Airplane mode but make it diagnostics ✈️

and that's the whole page bestie, we ate and left no crumbs 🍓

this was reform-check version 1.71, dated December 2025 — mwah, sending you a kiss, go check your setup 🫶
