Use nh (not nixos-rebuild/darwin-rebuild/home-manager) for all Nix system switches, builds, and activations. Also governs terminal output rules — never truncate logs from builds or deploys.

End-to-end bootstrap of a NixOS host via nixos-anywhere over Tailscale, covering Proxmox VM preparation (UEFI/OVMF), host config creation (disko, boot, network, users, sops, k3s), building a Tailscale-aware kexec image with static binaries for nixpkgs-unstable, sops secrets management, age key injection, remote building on a fast builder, and post-boot verification. Works when the target is only reachable over the tailnet.
**REQUIRED** - Always activate on any VCS operations. This repo uses Jujutsu (jj) — raw git commands can corrupt data. Essential jj workflow instructions inside. DO NOT IGNORE.
Safely deploy NixOS config changes to this repo's k3s cluster nodes (chopper, c3po, kenobi) with deploy-rs, without wedging activation or breaking the HA control plane. Use whenever running `just deploy <host>` / `nix run .#deploy-rs` for chopper, c3po, or kenobi, or when a deploy got stuck ("Could not acquire lock", magic-rollback timeout, k3s/etcd unhealthy after a deploy).

nh — never the raw nix commandsnh is the canonical wrapper for applying Nix configs in this setup. Never use:
nixos-rebuild switch → use nh os switchdarwin-rebuild switch → use nh darwin switchhome-manager switch → use nh home switch| Goal | Command |
|---|---|
| Apply NixOS config (any Linux host) | nh os switch /etc/nixos or nh os switch <flake-dir>#<host> |
| Apply darwin config (macOS) | nh darwin switch <flake-dir> |
| Apply Home Manager config | nh home switch <flake-dir> |
| Dry-run / diff without switching | append --dry to any of the above |
| Build without activating | append --no-activate |
| Pass extra nix flags | append -- <nix flags> after the nh args |
nh auto-detects the flake root if run from inside the repo. In this repo the flake is at /Users/mathew/.config/nix on darwin and /etc/nixos on NixOS hosts.
When a specific host or home config must be targeted, use the --flake flag:
nh os switch --flake /Users/mathew/.config/nix#chopper
nh darwin switch --flake /Users/mathew/.config/nix
nh home switch --flake /Users/mathew/.config/nix#"mathewalex@Vysakhs-MacBook-Pro"
Never use head_lines or tail_lines on build, switch, deploy, or any long-running Nix operation. These commands produce output the user MUST be able to see in full:
nh os switch ...nh darwin switch ...nh home switch ...nix build ...nix flake check ...deploy-rs / just deploy ...kubectl apply ..., helmfile sync ...For these commands, call terminal with no head_lines or tail_lines set. The full output streams to the user's terminal in real time and is returned in full to the agent.
Only use head_lines/tail_lines for purely diagnostic read-only commands (e.g. git log, ps aux, df -h) where truncation cannot hide a failure.
Build and switch operations can take several minutes. Use generous timeout_ms values:
300000 (5 min)900000 (15 min)600000 (10 min)If a command times out, report it clearly and let the user decide whether to re-run with a longer timeout. Do not silently retry.
