Indeed. I myself am on Doom Emacs but I've increasingly been thinking of moving over to vanilla Emacs. I'm a bit worried about the transition period due to all the keybind differences but I'm sure it's not too bad.

Tell your agent what parts of Doom Emacs you actually use, and ask it to build a minimal init.el containing only those parts. You're probably only using ~2% of Doom, so the resulting init.el will likely only be a few hundred lines, and most of those lines will be comments and key bindings.

It won't be a perfect transition, but it will make it a lot smoother.

I'm also a Doom user, albeit a new one. What is making you consider the switch?
