add ~/bin to your path

In your bashrc, you can edit your PATH, or run this command:

export PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH

If you installed oh-my-zsh, you can do the following instead:

sed -zi 's|# If you come from bash you might have to change your $PATH.|# If you come from bash you might have to change your $PATH.\nexport PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH|g' ~/.zshrc

oh-my-zsh plugins

git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k.git "${ZSH_CUSTOM:-${HOME}/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/themes/powerlevel10k"
sed -zi 's|ZSH_THEME="robbyrussell"|ZSH_THEME="powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k"|g' ~/.zshrc

NOTE: To selectively use keychain:

(for networks with a mounted home directory that would cause an immediate ssh key password prompt) Disable the keychain plugin in .zshrc. Use an if statement and manually run it with a script like this:

# Allows for re-use of ssh-agent and/or gpg-agent between logins
/usr/bin/keychain --quiet $HOME/.ssh/id_ed25519
source $HOME/.keychain/$HOST-sh
