rebuild now does sync_agents (idempotent — no-op when the
rendered flake matches disk; recovers from a divergent meta
repo on the side) followed by lock_update_for_rebuild which
relocks just this agent's input and commits the lock change
if any. flake ref for nixos-container update flips from
applied/<n>#default to meta#<name>. new helper
meta::lock_update_for_rebuild is single-phase (no separate
finalize): rebuild has no failure-revert semantics — it always
wants the latest applied/<n>/main. spawn already syncs meta
before container create; rebuild now picks up the meta side
on every manual ↻ R3BU1LD.
leaf module with no runtime callers yet (every public item is
#[allow(dead_code)] until lifecycle / actions / auto_update
rewire to use it). API surface:
- sync_agents — idempotent: render flake.nix for the given
agent set, git-init on first call, nix flake lock, commit if
anything changed.
- prepare_deploy / finalize_deploy / abort_deploy — two-phase
for the request_apply_commit path. prepare runs nix flake
lock --update-input agent-<n> without committing; finalize
commits with a 'deploy <n> deployed/<id> <sha12>' message;
abort git-restores the lock so a failed build leaves no
orphan commit.
- lock_update_hyperhive — one-shot for the auto-update path.
flake.nix template defines mkAgent that pulls each agent's
nixosModules.default from its input and wraps with the
identity / HIVE_PORT / HIVE_LABEL / HIVE_DASHBOARD_PORT
module — what setup_applied used to generate inline. nix
invocations carry --extra-experimental-features as a belt
in case flakes aren't enabled in nix.conf.
