Bernardo Magri 46af2f0632 feat(ci): checks-on-push workflow (Forgejo Actions, eval tier)
.forgejo/workflows/check.yml runs on every push to main/v1 (+ manual
dispatch): nix flake check --no-build (full module-system eval incl.
the downstream template through mkFlake), py_compile of
nomarchy-theme-sync, and bash -n over tracked .sh files. The always-on
net under direct-to-main pushes — first slice of the ROADMAP lock-bump
CI item.

Scoped to the eval tier deliberately: the instance's runner is an
act_runner docker container (no systemd, no /dev/kvm — established
from the legacy repo's .gitea/workflows/check.yml, which ran 57 times
on it), so the checks.* VM suite and real builds can't run there. A
commented vm-checks job documents the KVM-runner upgrade path; the
legacy workflow's container gotchas (nixbld setup for the single-user
installer, sandbox=false for Stylix IFD, Nix pinned 2.31.5 vs
lazy-trees, no JS actions past node20) are carried over verbatim in
the header. docs/TESTING.md §1b documents what a green run does and
does not mean.

Verified: V0 locally (the same check commands, minus the container
Nix install) + YAML parse. A real green run depends on the runner
still being registered — not API-visible unauthenticated, so that is
queued as [human] BACKLOG item 20.

# Nomarchy CI — the always-on net under direct-to-main pushes.
#
# Scope (deliberate): the EVAL tier only. The Forgejo runner behind this
# instance is act_runner + docker containers (the legacy repo's check.yml
# ran 57 times on it) — no systemd, no /dev/kvm — so the checks.* VM
# tests and full toplevel builds can't run here. `nix flake check
# --no-build` still catches most breakage (type errors, missing options,
# bad merges, template/mkFlake drift — see docs/TESTING.md §1); the VM
# suite stays a local/promotion gate until a KVM-capable NixOS runner
# exists (see the commented vm-checks job at the bottom).
#
# Inherited-from-legacy gotchas (learned over 57 runs, kept verbatim):
# - Single-user Nix (--no-daemon): no systemd in the container. The
# installer runs as root and honours build-users-group=nixbld from
# its bundled nix.conf, aborting unless the group exists AND has
# members — create nixbld + users first.
# - sandbox=false: Stylix/base16.nix do import-from-derivation; the
# single-user Nix in this container can't set up the build sandbox
# (no user namespaces), which otherwise surfaces as
# "path '…-source' is not valid".
# - Pin the Nix version: 2.34's lazy-trees git cache doesn't
# materialise flake-input `-source` paths into the store, breaking
# the same IFD reads. 2.31.5 matches what wrote flake.lock.
# - Plain-shell Nix install, not a JS action: act_runner's bundled act
# tops out at node20; a `run:` step has no node-runtime coupling.

# ── vm-checks (DISABLED until a KVM runner exists) ────────────────────
# The real prize: running the checks.* VM suite + a toplevel build in
# CI. Needs a runner on a NixOS (or at least nix + /dev/kvm) host —
# register one with a dedicated label, then uncomment and set runs-on
# to that label. Do NOT enable this against a label that doesn't
# exist: Forgejo queues such jobs forever instead of failing.
