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.

Status
Not yet merge-ready: independent reviews found no remaining implementation or core-design blockers, but the corrected Nix regression check needs a successful CI run. The new fork workflows require maintainer approval. Earlier requested changes are addressed and await reviewer reassessment.
Motivation
Let Nix consumers add OpenSpec to their package set and compose dependency overrides without maintaining a separate derivation.

Packaging-only change, with no change to OpenSpec's core design or architecture. No dependency or fetcher migration. This PR has not been merged.
