This skill updates flake.lock to get latest packages within current NixOS release. Triggers: "update flake", "upgrade flake", "nix flake update", "bump flake.lock", "update flake inputs", "refresh inputs", "update dependencies". Runs nix flake update, checks build, optionally applies. Not for NixOS release upgrades (use upgrade-nixos for major version changes).

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'upgrade-flake' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'upgrade-flake' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named upgrade-flake already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/richardgill/nix' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '74d2bde87aa222987928b9a2f4ac9a540ffd5e42' -- '.claude/skills/upgrade-flake' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'.claude/skills/upgrade-flake' ~/.agents/skills/'upgrade-flake' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'upgrade-flake' ~/.claude/skills/'upgrade-flake' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
