cc-ci server flake-input bump — nixpkgs 24.11 → 26.05 + sops-nix → master

Bumps the cc-ci server host's NixOS dependencies, deliberately (not drift).

Changes

input before after
nixpkgs 50ab793 (nixos-24.11, 2025-06-30, EOL) 531670d (nixos-26.05, 2026-08-03)
sops-nix 77c423a (held back to plain buildGoModule for 24.11 compat) f140661 (master, buildGo125Module / Go 1.25)

This is a 3-release channel jump (24.11 → 25.05 → 25.11 → 26.05). The cc-ci server was pinned
to 24.11, which reached end-of-life on 2025-06-30 and no longer receives security updates. Moving
to 26.05 matches the orchestrator host's channel so both boxes share a nixpkgs and CVEs get patched.

Breaking changes reviewed (25.05 / 25.11 / 26.05 release notes)

  • systemd Stage 1 boot (26.05): initrd now boots via systemd by default, replacing the scripted
    initrd. No boot.initrd / boot.kernelParams custom options in the cc-ci host config → uses the
    new default, no config edit needed. A cold-boot proof is recommended after the rebuild.
  • dbus-broker default (26.05): requires a reboot to take effect (the nixos-rebuild switch +
    optional cold-boot proof covers this).
  • bash nixos-rebuild removed (26.05): the Python rewrite (nixos-rebuild-ng) is now
    mandatory. git must be present on the host (it is). No system.rebuild.enableNg set in the
    config → no edit needed.
  • MySQL 8.0 removed (26.05): not used as a NixOS module on the cc-ci host (keycloak's mariadb
    runs in a docker container) → not affected.
  • fileSystems mkDefault (25.11): the cc-ci host's hardware.nix defines fileSystems."/"
    and fileSystems."/boot/efi" explicitly with device → not affected.
  • No other module option renames found in the host config (nix/hosts/cc-ci-hetzner/*.nix). The
    nixos-rebuild build step is the safety net — if a renamed/removed option is hit, the build
    fails and names the offending option before any switch.

Deploy plan (orchestrator-executed, authorized by invocation)

  1. Stage this branch on the cc-ci host at /root/cc-ci-deploy/ (plain path flake, excludes .git).
  2. Copy operator-held sops secrets (/etc/cc-ci/secrets/secrets.yaml) into the staged tree.
  3. nixos-rebuild build --flake .#cc-ci first (catch errors before switching).
  4. nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#cc-ci (the live deploy — cycles abra reconcile oneshots).
  5. Health gate: no failed units, 7 infra services active, endpoints 200, disk stable.
  6. Optional cold-boot proof (systemctl reboot + re-verify) — stronger guarantee for the Stage 1 change.

Not merged

This PR is the reviewable record of the bump. The live rebuild is the deploy; the PR is NOT
merged by the orchestrator. The operator reviews/merges at their discretion.

sops-nix: 77c423a -> f140661 (master, buildGo125Module now builds on 26.05)

3-release channel jump (24.11 -> 25.05 -> 25.11 -> 26.05) to match the
orchestrator host and get CVE patches. 24.11 was EOL (2025-06-30).

Notable 26.05 changes reviewed: systemd Stage 1 boot (default, no config
change needed), dbus-broker default, bash nixos-rebuild removed (Python
rewrite mandatory; git present on host), MySQL 8.0 removed (not used as a
NixOS module). No system.rebuild/fileSystems/boot.initrd options in the
host config, so no config edits required.

networking: pin defaultGateway to eth0 (fixes no-default-route on 25.05+)
Some checks failed
continuous-integration/drone/push Build is failing
Details
c541cb1474 
Since NixOS 25.05, scripted networking installs the default route from the
gateway interface's network-addresses-<iface>.service, matching the interface
via defaultGateway.interface or by subnet inclusion. Hetzner's off-subnet
point-to-point gateway (91.98.47.73/32 on eth0, gw 172.31.1.1) matched
neither with the bare-string form, so the 26.05 switch on 2026-08-03 left the
host with no default route and off the network (recovered via Hetzner rescue:
grubenv default back to the 24.11 generation).

With an explicit interface, the module installs both the gateway host route
and the default route from eth0's own unit:
  ip -4 route replace 172.31.1.1 proto static dev eth0
  ip -4 route replace default proto static dev eth0 via 172.31.1.1

Verified by nix eval of systemd.services.network-addresses-eth0.script.

Deployed + incident report (2026-08-03)

Outcome: live on the cc-ci server. nixos-version = 26.05.20260803.531670d (Yarara), generation 24, cold-boot proven, 0 failed units, all core swarm services 1/1, report.ci.commoninternet.net serving HTTP 200.

Incident during first deploy

The initial nixos-rebuild switch (commit 4772e31, flake bump only) took the host off the network (~19:30–20:12 UTC): the 26.05 generation booted but never installed a default route, so SSH/Tailscale/ping were all dead while Hetzner showed the server "running".

Root cause: since NixOS 25.05, scripted networking installs the default route from the gateway interface's network-addresses-<iface>.service, and finds that interface via defaultGateway.interface or by the gateway address being inside one of the interface's subnets. This host (nixos-infect provisioning) had defaultGateway = "172.31.1.1" (bare string, no interface) with eth0 at 91.98.47.73/32 — Hetzner's off-subnet point-to-point gateway matched neither rule, so no unit claimed the default route. On 24.11 the old network-setup.service installed it unconditionally, which is why this never bit before.

Fix: c541cb1 — defaultGateway = { address = "172.31.1.1"; interface = "eth0"; }. With the interface explicit, the module installs both the gateway host route and the default route from eth0's own unit. Verified by nix eval of the generated unit script, then by a live nixos-rebuild test before switch.

Recovery path used: Hetzner rescue mode → mounted disk → grub-editenv default to the gen-22 (24.11) entry → boot → redeploy with fix → test → switch → cold-boot proof. (Note for next time: NixOS grub puts generations in a submenu, so one-shot entries need 1>N syntax, and any persistent grubenv default override must be cleared after the next switch regenerates grub.cfg.)

Merging directly per operator policy: PRs are opened for visibility/history; the skill invocation is the authorization.
