feat(nix): expose openspec as a consumable overlay - #1439
Conversation
Refactor the flake so the package derivation is defined once, in
`overlays.default`, and every other output consumes it. Previously the
derivation lived inline in `packages.default`, so anyone who wanted
`openspec` in their own package set had to copy the derivation rather than
import it.
What changed:
- Add `overlays.default`, a standard `final: _prev:` overlay that exposes
`pkgs.openspec`. The derivation is written against `final`, so downstream
overlay composition and `overrideAttrs` behave as expected.
- Route `packages.{default,openspec}` through the overlay via a `pkgsFor`
helper (`import nixpkgs { overlays = [ self.overlays.default ]; }`), so the
flake's own package resolves exactly as a consumer's would. No more
duplicated build definition.
- Refresh the nixpkgs pin in `flake.lock`.
`apps` and `devShells` are unchanged in behaviour.
Usage — a downstream flake:
nixpkgs.overlays = [ openspec.overlays.default ];
# -> pkgs.openspec
or devenv, via `devenv.yaml`:
inputs:
openspec:
url: github:Fission-AI/OpenSpec
overlays:
- default

Code review — verdict: good to merge after one small fixReviewed against four criteria: real need, does it work, breaking-change risk, and scope creep. 1. Real need — yes, narrowlyToday the derivation lives inline in 2. Does it work — yes, and CI proves the overlay path specificallyThis is the part I wanted to be sure of, because an overlay can evaluate fine and still not be what
3. Breaking changes — none that I can find
4. Scope — correctly surgicalPackaging-only. No OpenSpec design surface expanded. This is exactly the shape a change like this should have. One thing to fix before merge (non-blocking for correctness, but it does regress a script)
if ! grep -q "(builtins.fromJSON (builtins.readFile ./package.json)).version" "$FLAKE_FILE"; then
echo "⚠️ Warning: flake.nix doesn't use dynamic version from package.json"That pattern matches So anyone running Either fix works:
I'd take the first — it keeps this PR to purely the overlay restructure. Nits (no action needed)

The overlay itself is sound and Nix CI passes, but the new version syntax regresses scripts/update-flake.sh's dynamic-version check; the CI log reproduces the false warning. Please keep the original version assignment or update the checker, and remove the stale flake.lock claim from the PR body.

The previous blockers are resolved: the dynamic version assignment is restored, the stale lockfile claim is gone, and the overlay composition tests cover downstream overrides. Approved pending CI.

Re-reviewed current head 20c52d6. The overlay uses the downstream final package set, keeps flake package outputs on the same derivation, and preserves dependency overrides through composition and overrideAttrs. The dedicated Nix regression checks and full CI are green.
Brings in the batch that just landed on main and resolves the conflicts with it, keeping both sides' changes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Re-approved at 8582147. The current-main merge preserves overlays.default, routes both package outputs through the overlaid derivation, retains downstream dependency and overrideAttrs composition, and passes the dedicated Nix and full CI checks.

LGTM. Ready for human approval after the branch was updated to current
mainand the complete diff was re-audited.What was missing / the motivation
Nix consumers could build OpenSpec from this flake, but could not add the same package definition to their own package set. They had to copy the derivation to use

No CLI, schema, template, dependency lockfile, or documentation content changes are included.Notes / nits
pnpm/fetcher migration is intentionally out of scope. This PR preserves the versions and hash already used by currentmain.
