Every other check in nix/checks.nix is a Rust derivation, so a
.nix-only diff moves no hash, the whole set is cache hits, and
`nix flake check` reports green without evaluating what changed.
`checks.module-eval` is one derivation holding a table of cases, each
named by the PROPERTY it defends. Its builder text embeds the evaluated
results, so the derivation's hash is a function of them: a nix change
that flips a property rebuilds the check and fails in the builder,
naming that property.
PROVEN, not assumed — the mechanism was executed before the cases were
written. Same expression with one property true vs false:
drvPath true -> 5v11mnbv…-module-eval.drv
drvPath false -> ivm3dvv8…-module-eval.drv (differs)
build false -> FAILS, stderr names the property
and the table itself was mutation-tested: inverting one case's
expectation gives `FAILED: a hive that has not opted into all-local
runs no swarm controller / module-eval: 1 of 5 properties broke`. A
check that cannot go red on a broken tree is not evidence.
Cases are named by property and never by ticket: a case named after the
ticket that prompted it has that ticket's lifetime; one named after the
property lives as long as the property does.
⚠️ It evaluates, it does not execute. Where the artifact is a command
line, a request or a certificate, a value assertion cannot stand in —
that is written into the file's header, because the gap is exactly what
made two earlier outages evaluable-but-broken.

# `checks.module-eval` — the flake check that covers **nix**.
|
|
#
|
|
# Why this exists: every other check in ./checks.nix is a Rust
|
|
# derivation, so a `.nix`-only diff moves no hash, every check is a
|
|
# cache hit, and `nix flake check` reports green **without evaluating
|
|
# what changed**. This one's derivation hash is a function of the
|
|
# evaluated *results* below, so a nix change that flips a property
|
|
# rebuilds it and the builder fails naming that property.
|
|
#
|
|
# ## What belongs here, and what does not
|
|
#
|
|
# Anything expressible as a module `assertion` **should be one instead**:
|
|
# an assertion fires at deploy time for a real operator, not only in CI.
|
|
# What cannot be an assertion is the **absence class** — "a hive that
|
|
# hasn't opted in renders exactly what it did before", "this unit does
|
|
# not exist unless X". Those are claims about the *rendered config*
|
|
# rather than about a config being invalid, so they need an evaluator.
|
|
#
|
|
# ⚠️ **Cases are named by the PROPERTY they defend, never by the ticket
|
|
# that prompted them.** A case named after a ticket has the ticket's
|
|
# lifetime; a case named after a property lives as long as the property.
|
|
#
|
|
# ⚠️ **This check evaluates. It does not execute.** Where the artifact is
|
|
# a command line, an HTTP request or a certificate, a value assertion
|
|
# cannot stand in — those need something that *runs* them. And a case
|
|
# that needs a **rendered file** must stub the packages that file drags
|
|
# in (`swarm.ui.package = pkgs.emptyDirectory`), or it costs a full
|
|
# frontend build to answer a question about a listen directive.
