The apt-based CI couldn't satisfy the build: (hexol k8s)/cmdb need (json) from guile-json and (hexol ansible) needs (yaml) from guile-libyaml, which isn't packaged for Ubuntu. hexol is a Guix project anyway, so CI now installs Guix and runs the suite inside `guix shell -m manifest.scm`, making the manifest the single source of truth. - manifest.scm: add guile-json + guile-libyaml (the real deps). - ci.yml: install Guix, run make build/test/test-examples in the guix shell. - README: document the Guile-library dependencies and the `guix shell -m manifest.scm` install path. Verified locally: `guix shell -m manifest.scm -- make build test test-examples` is fully green.
guix-install.sh blocks on a yes/no prompt that piped input can't satisfy. Switch to the manual binary-tarball install from the Guix manual: extract, create build users, start the daemon, authorize the official substitute key, then run the suite in guix shell — all one step so the backgrounded daemon survives.
examples/terraform.scm reads ~/.ssh/id_*.pub at render time; the runner has none, so generate an ephemeral key (used only as rendered data, never to connect).

What
Adds GitHub Actions CI and fixes the dependency provisioning so it can actually build.
.github/workflows/ci.yml) — on every push tomainand every PR: install Guix, then runmake build test test-examplesinsideguix shell -m manifest.scm.manifest.scm— now declares the real dependencies:guile,guile-json(the(json)module),guile-libyaml(the(yaml)module),jq. It's the single source of truth; CI and dev provision from it identically.test/examples.sh+make test-examples— render each standalone example through its own renderer and assert it exits 0 (smoke, not golden).guix shell -m manifest.scminstall path; FAQ no longer says "no CI yet".Why Guix and not apt
The first apt-based attempt went red twice:
(hexol k8s)/cmdb import(json)(guile-json) and(hexol ansible)imports(yaml)(guile-libyaml). guile-libyaml is FFI-based (nyacc + guile-bytestructures + libyaml) and isn't packaged for Ubuntu, so building it from apt is a fragile multi-package chain. hexol is already a Guix project (.envrcrunsuse_guix), so provisioning CI frommanifest.scmis reproducible and matches the dev environment.Verification
Locally,
guix shell -m manifest.scm -- make build test test-examplesis fully green (kernel/surface/construct/k8s/cmdb tests + all six example renders).Note:
mainis currently red — the earlier apt-based CI commits landed there before we switched to PRs. Merging this fixes it.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
