Copies of the Linux CI lanes running side-by-side on ix machines, plus one reconcile workflow. Zero nix, zero config files, nothing outside .github/ - the machine definition and every dial live in indexable-inc/ix-runners, versioned by the single action pin in ix-runners.yml.

The model

Machines exist per job. A queued ix-labeled job gets a fresh VM, forked copy-on-write from its lane's seed - a disk snapshot of the machine that last ran that lane green on canary - runs its one job on a single-job, repo-scoped credential minted via OIDC (no PAT, no standing secret), and is deleted. Green canary runs refresh the seeds. Warmth is the forked disk itself: checkout, target/, node_modules, toolchains are simply there.

This supersedes the persistent-pool design from the earlier review round, and with it the secret-boundary concern from that review: there are no persistent runners and no secrets reachable from job machines - the reconcile runs hosted-only, and each machine's credential is valid for exactly one job.

Setup (the whole of it)

Set IX_TOKEN in Actions secrets, install the ix-runners GitHub App, merge. Lanes skip quietly without the secret; fork PRs keep the hosted/Blacksmith fallback. Cost dials (max-runners, regions) are visible in the one workflow's pin target.

Validated (on our fork, all runs public)

  • Full green board, cold: run 32283293972 - every Linux lane, zero failures, including first-ever green ix runs for the ruby and csharp sdk lanes.
  • Warm path, first measurement: job queued -> running in 41s on a machine forked from the lane's seed, runtime 2m27s vs 6m59s cold (2.85x) - job. A per-lane cold/warm comparison table accumulates from today; we will attach it here as it fills in.

Deliberately absent from this PR: everything the closed #4485/#4515 asked of the codebase. Location-assuming code is fine under this model - a fork wakes in the exact filesystem it was built in.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds a Nix-based IX runner pool, lane-specific build graphs, reusable cross-platform CI workflows, cross-compilation support, preview workflow routing, CI shell selection, L2 roots, and nextest configurations.

Changes

IX CI infrastructure

Layer / File(s) Summary
CI shell selection and fallback setup
.github/actions/setup-ci-shell/action.yml
The composite action detects Nix, enters the configured flake shell with retries, or runs Rustup and mise fallback setup.
Nix CI graphs and development shells
nix/ix/flake.nix, nix/ix/ci-shell.nix, nix/ix/cross-shell.nix, nix/ix/l2-roots.txt, baml_language/.config/nextest-*.toml
The flake defines lane graphs, build roots, CI shells, cross-compilation tools, L2 roots, and nextest configurations.
IX runner pool definition and NixOS module
nix/ix/ci-runner.nix, nix/ix/ix-pool.toml, .github/actionlint.yaml
The pool defines 32 members and scaling rules. The NixOS module assigns labels and configures caches, packages, networking, and job environments.
IX runner reconciliation workflow
.github/workflows/ix-runners.yml
The workflow serializes canary reconciliation, checks for IX_TOKEN, performs a credential-free checkout, and invokes the pinned IX runners action.
Preview CI change routing
.github/workflows/ix-ci.yml
The workflow detects changed areas and conditionally invokes reusable Cargo, size-gate, WASM, and webview workflows.
Reusable platform validation workflows
.github/workflows/ix-cargo-tests.reusable.yaml, .github/workflows/ix-size-gate.reusable.yaml, .github/workflows/ix-wasm-pack-tests.reusable.yaml, .github/workflows/ix-webview-tests.reusable.yaml
The workflows run platform checks on IX or hosted runners and publish caches, artifacts, reports, and diagnostics.
Cross-platform CLI artifact workflow
.github/workflows/ix-cross.yml
The workflow builds Darwin and Windows targets, validates binary architectures, and uploads the resulting binaries.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to eea21

The preview CI workflows expose the full repository secret set to pull-request-controlled jobs running on persistent machines, creating a material risk of secret disclosure. The change also has unresolved CI correctness issues around SDK setup, JAVA_HOME propagation, webview trigger coverage, and duplicated configuration, so it should not merge without addressing or explicitly accepting these risks.

nix/cross-shell.nix:33 hard-codes the same 1.93.0 channel as rust-toolchain.toml. Pass the parsed channel from flake.nix, or read the toolchain file in this module, so the cross shell cannot diverge from CI after a toolchain update.

21-32: 🔒 Security & Privacy | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Add a top-level permissions block.

This reusable workflow declares no top-level permissions, so its jobs take whatever the caller grants. The sibling preview workflows all pin contents: read at the top. ix-ci.yaml currently restricts this call, but a future caller would silently widen the token for size-gate-linux, size-gate-macos, size-gate-windows, and size-gate-wasm. Pin the default here and keep the pull-requests: write grant scoped to size-gate-report.

Avoid expanding the step output inside the run script.

Line 1632 splices ${{ steps.l2.outputs.hit }} directly into bash. The value is produced by this workflow, so it is not attacker-controlled, but every other consumer of this output in the file uses a step-level if. Read the value through env instead, so the script stays free of template expansion and zizmor's template-injection finding clears.

Pass explicit secrets instead of secrets: inherit.

ix-wasm-pack-tests.reusable.yaml and ix-webview-tests.reusable.yaml declare no secrets: inputs, and ix-cargo-tests.reusable.yaml and ix-size-gate.reusable.yaml declare only the two sccache credentials. With inherit, the called workflow can reference any repository or organization secret. Map only what each lane needs, so the preview trial cannot widen secret exposure.

baml_language/.config/nextest-l2.toml (1)

1-19: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Document that the nextest-version pin must track the main config.

This file repeats the nextest-version = "0.9.98" floor from baml_language/.config/nextest.toml. Nextest has no include mechanism, so the two values can drift. If someone raises the floor in the main config only, the L2 arm keeps accepting an older nextest, and the two arms of the same lane then run under different minimum versions. Add one line to the header comment that states the pin is mirrored, so the next bump touches both files.

📝 Proposed comment addition
 # whole-workspace cargo metadata (the planned L2 unlock for the heavy lanes),
 # this file and the --config-file flags can be deleted and the main config

cp -n hides basename collisions.

Two unit roots can produce the same artifact basename, for example a lib/foo.wasm cdylib and a bin/foo wasm binary from different packages. With cp -n the second copy is skipped without any record, so the job's artifact listing shows one file and reports no conflict. Consider failing, or prefixing with the root name, so a collision is visible.

Extract one mkEvalRoots helper.

The four eval-root derivations (packages.msrv-eval-roots at lines 1007-1025, packages.wasm-eval-roots at lines 1076-1094, and these two) differ only in the workspace and the derivation name. One helper keeps the Darwin guard, the roots list and the builder script defined once, so adding the next lane cannot drift.

♻️ Sketch of the helper
mkEvalRoots =
  lane: workspace:
  if pkgs.stdenv.isDarwin then
    throw "packages.${lane}-eval-roots belongs to the Linux ${lane} graph"
  else

…city (BoundaryML#4499)

Timing-sensitive tests currently encode idle-16-vCPU behavior as
correctness: the cancellation suites assert sub-second wall-clock
bounds, the prof soak bounds a whole run instead of a round, and the
webview vitest config sizes its worker pool from
`availableParallelism()`. On larger or busier machines these fail (or in
vitest's case, fork-bomb) without any product regression. Found running
this repo's CI on 64-vCPU self-hosted runners; every change is a no-op
or strictly looser on your 16-vCPU runners, and none can mask a real
regression.

- **sdk_tests cancellation (rust, typescript, java)**: keep the semantic
property (cancellation interrupts the call) but bound it at 5s with the
cancelled sleeps raised to 60s - a regression that ignores cancellation
still cannot pass, while a busy machine no longer produces false reds.
Only the three suites that actually flaked at high parallelism are
touched; python/go/cpp never flaked and keep their bounds. Java also
cancels the timed-out future instead of leaking it.
- **bex_events prof consumer soak**: per-round wedge bound (30s) instead
of a per-machine total, so a wedged consumer fails fast with the named
panic inside the job timeout on any host.
- **webview `vitest.config.ts`**: cap `maxWorkers` (overridable via
`VITEST_MAX_WORKERS`), at or above what 16 vCPUs produce naturally - a
no-op for your runners, a hard requirement on 64-core ones where
`availableParallelism()-1` workerd processes OOM the machine.
- **bridge_cffi header test + java sdk setup scripts**: stop assuming
the crate lives inside a full workspace checkout with a rustup-managed
toolchain (`BAML_BRIDGE_CFFI_DIR` env seam; toolchain pinning delegated
to the workspace `rust-toolchain.toml`). Behavior is byte-identical in
the current layout; the java Windows script drops an explicit rustup
toolchain dispatch for parity with the unix script.

Split out of BoundaryML#4483 so that PR stays new-files-only; merge order between
the two does not matter (without this, the non-gating ix preview lanes
just flake).

Pushed one addition: the L2 probe arm extended to the sdk and snapshot lanes (same probe shape as the msrv/gnu/musl/wasm lanes already in this PR). Still new-files-only plus the same 11 actionlint lines - the changes live inside ix-cargo-tests.reusable.yaml, nix/ix/, and one new nextest config. The sdk arm ships with an EMPTY lane allowlist on purpose (documented inline: sdk build.rs fixture side effects are not yet retained by the unit graph), so every sdk lane keeps taking the plain cargo arm until that unlocks. The shared-source env seams these arms use when live are #4515, same split as before; merge order does not matter.

Blocking trust-boundary issue on current head 4691b32b:

.github/workflows/ix-ci.yml passes secrets: inherit to all four PR-controlled local reusable workflows. The fork guard prevents fork PRs from reaching ix, but a same-repository PR still runs its own workflow definitions on the persistent pool. GitHub documents that secrets: inherit exposes all secrets available to the caller to the called workflow, including secrets not declared under on.workflow_call: https://docs.github.com/en/actions/how-tos/reuse-automations/reuse-workflows#using-inputs-and-secrets-in-a-reusable-workflow

That contradicts the stated “No secrets on runners” boundary and gives same-repository PR code access to more than the two optional sccache credentials declared by the cargo/size copies. The minimal fix is to remove the four secrets: inherit lines. I applied that locally against this exact head; actionlint passes for all six ix workflow files. The workflow comments already define secretless/local sccache fallback behavior. If remote cache access is required, pass only explicitly named credentials—but PR code can still read those, so a trusted canary-only cache warmer is the safer separation.

I also checked the latest contributor follow-up: the size-gate permissions block and cross-channel single-sourcing are sound.

Separate from this code blocker, two rollout decisions still need a human owner before the preview can be treated as merge-ready: the 32-node/9-warm pool cost envelope, and approval to fetch/use the repackaged Apple SDK for opt-in Darwin cross builds. The latter is a policy/licensing decision, not something CI can validate.

Applicability against current canary is otherwise clean: #4499 supplies complementary high-core timing/hermeticity fixes with no path overlap; #4479 supplies the direnv CI guard; #4485 supplies crate-boundary hermeticity; and #4515 supplies the runtime relocation seams used by the L2 snapshot arm. Those companion PRs remain independently useful.

Pass explicit secrets instead of secrets: inherit.

The four called workflows need at most BAML_SCCACHE_R2_ACCESS_KEY_ID and BAML_SCCACHE_R2_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY. ix-wasm-pack-tests.reusable.yaml and ix-webview-tests.reusable.yaml declare no secrets: block at all, so they need none. secrets: inherit forwards the whole caller secret set to jobs that build pull-request-controlled code on persistent runners. Restrict each call to the secrets the workflow declares.

Maintainer-edit note: I committed the four-line secrets: inherit removal locally and attempted a normal fast-forward to indexable-inc/baml:up/ix-pool, but GitHub rejected it exactly as:

remote: Permission to indexable-inc/baml.git denied to sxlijin.
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/indexable-inc/baml.git/': The requested URL returned error: 403

The connected GitHub app also returns 403 Resource not accessible by integration for Git object writes to that fork. The base-branch update API worked earlier, but maintainer-edit access does not permit publishing new commits here, so the contributor will need to apply the removal.

Verified two additional current-head issues from the latest automated review:

  1. The size-gate-report job runs jq -e inside an if at .github/workflows/ix-size-gate.reusable.yaml:630, but jq is absent from both services.ix-runner.extraPackages and the ci-shell.nix package list. On ix-light, exit 127 is consumed as a false condition, so a report with {"ok":false} can be silently accepted. Add pkgs.jq to the entered CI shell (or otherwise guarantee it on the runner) and add a direct assertion/probe.

  2. check_webview only watches webview/package/type paths plus the reusable workflow itself. The lane directly consumes .github/actions/setup-ci-shell, .github/actions/setup-node2, and nix/**; changes to those dependencies currently do not schedule this lane. Add those paths to the webview filter.

These are in addition to the requested secret-boundary fix. I agree with removing secret forwarding entirely for PR-controlled persistent-runner jobs; mapping only the two R2 secrets is narrower than inherit but still exposes those credentials to same-repository PR code.

Restrict the inherited secrets to the ones each lane declares.

secrets: inherit passes every repository secret to the called workflow. ix-wasm-pack-tests.reusable.yaml and ix-webview-tests.reusable.yaml declare no secrets, and ix-size-gate.reusable.yaml declares only the two sccache credentials.

Non-required copies of cargo-tests, size-gate, wasm-pack-tests and
webview-tests, routed to ix machines by family label (with the hosted
runner as the fork-PR fallback), plus a path-gated router. Deltas vs the
originals are confined to runs-on routing, warm-seed checkouts,
parallelism honesty pins for the 64-vCPU elastic guests, fork/repo
gates, and timeout headroom; the router forwards no secrets and the
size-gate report keeps its permissions, jq probe and guard fixes.
Deleting the ix-* files removes every ix-scheduled job.
Hosted-only control plane, one step: the action carries the pool
definition and template itself, versioned by its pin, so no checkout of
this repo is needed. Each queued ix-labeled job gets a fresh machine
forked from a per-lane seed. The pin is a placeholder substituted before
merge.

The v2 runner credential is minted with the job's exact labels minus
self-hosted, so a job demanding [self-hosted, ix, ix-gnu] never matches
the runner registered [ix, ix-gnu] (observed live: online idle runner,
job queued indefinitely). The ix marker + family label is the whole
lineage identity; self-hosted adds nothing but the mismatch.
setup-musl-cross uses sudo (absent on the image) to install what the
image already bakes; setup-ruby refuses self-hosted non-Ubuntu-image
runners by design. Both steps stay for the hosted fallback and skip on
self-hosted, where the image ships the toolchain. Observed live on the
first v2 wave: musl exit 127 on sudo, ruby hard refusal.

@sxlijin this PR was rebuilt from scratch since your last review and is ready for another look - the body has the full story. Short version: the persistent pool is gone (machines exist per job, forked from per-lane seeds minted by green canary runs, single-job OIDC-vended credentials - no PAT, no standing runners, which also structurally resolves the secret-boundary blocker from your review). Zero nix and zero config files in the tree; the machine definition lives in the ix-runners repo behind the one pin. Validated end to end on our fork today: full green cold board, and the first warm measurement (job queued to running-warm in 41s, 2.85x runtime). Your three earlier asks (secretless router, jq probe, webview filters) are all carried over. The two open items you flagged for a human owner: cost envelope is now the visible dials + a measured per-host concurrency limit we can share; the Apple SDK question is moot - cross-compilation left this PR entirely.

Re-created as #4537 from a user-owned fork so maintainer pushes work (this head sits on an org-owned fork, which GitHub refuses maintainer edits against - your 403 above). #4537 carries this exact content squashed to one commit on today's canary, with your three review asks in. Closing this one.
