+## oizys cli
+
+A small helper utility that mostly just wraps `nix` commands for convenience.
+
+```sh
+nix run "github:daylinmorgan/oizys"
+```
+
+```
+oizys <cmd> [opts]
+  commands:
+    dry     poor man's nix flake check
+    boot    nixos-rebuild boot
+    switch  nixos-rebuild switch
+    cache   build and push to cachix
+    build   build system flake
+
+  options:
+    -h|--help    show this help
+       --host    hostname (current host)
+    -f|--flake   path to flake ($FLAKE_PATH or $HOME/styx)
+    -c|--cache   name of cachix binary cache (daylin)
+       --no-nom  don't use nix-output-monitor
+```
+
+
+## oizys?
+
+Oizys was birthed by the goddess Nyx/Nix and embodies suffering and misery. Which is all that awaits you if you embrace nix.
