Add Alias

Add a new alias to dot_aliae.yaml following existing patterns.

Steps

1. Read dot_aliae.yaml to understand current structure and grouping
2. Find the appropriate section for the new alias (or create a new section)
3. Add the alias using aliae YAML format
4. Validate YAML syntax
5. Regenerate fallback files for all shells:

   chezmoi apply ~/.aliae.yaml
   aliae init zsh > ~/.local/share/chezmoi/dot_aliae_fallback.zsh
   aliae init bash > ~/.local/share/chezmoi/dot_aliae_fallback.bash
   aliae init pwsh --print > ~/.local/share/chezmoi/dot_aliae_fallback.ps1
   

   Or just run aliae-update-fallback if aliae is loaded.
6. Run chezmoi diff to preview the change

Alias Format

Simple alias:

- alias: name
  value: command

Cross-platform paths (use {{ .Home }} instead of ~ or $HOME):

- alias: myapp
