Lets you run graphical applications as another user in a confined environment with a nice NixOS
module to configure target users and provide launchers and desktop files for your privileged user.

Why would you want this?

- It protects the desktop environment from applications.

- It protects applications from each other.

- It provides UID isolation on top of the standard application sandbox.

There are a few different things to set up for this to work:

- A set of users, each for a group of applications that should be allowed access to each other

- A tool to switch users, currently sudo and machinectl are supported.

- If you are running NixOS, the module in this repository can take care of launchers and desktop files in the privileged
  user's environment, as well as packages and extra home-manager configuration for target users.

If you have a flakes-enabled nix environment, you can try out the tool by running:

```shell
nix run git+https://git.ophivana.moe/security/fortify -- -h
```

## Module usage

The NixOS module currently requires home-manager and impermanence to function correctly.

To use the module, import it into your configuration with

```nix
{
  inputs = {
    nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-24.05";

    fortify = {
      url = "git+https://git.ophivana.moe/security/fortify";

      # Optional but recommended to limit the size of your system closure.
      inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
    };
  };

  outputs = { self, nixpkgs, fortify, ... }:
  {
    nixosConfigurations.fortify = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
      system = "x86_64-linux";
      modules = [
        fortify.nixosModules.fortify
      ];
    };
  };
}
```

This adds the `environment.fortify` option:

```nix
{ pkgs, ... }:

{
  environment.fortify = {
    enable = true;
    user = "nixos";
    stateDir = "/var/lib/persist/module";
    target = {
      chronos = {
        launchers = {
          weechat.method = "sudo";
          claws-mail.capability.pulse = false;

                };
              system.filter = true;
