In @.github/workflows/ci.yml:
- Around line 23-27: Replace all action references in the workflow
(actions/checkout, DeterminateSystems/nix-installer-action,
DeterminateSystems/flakehub-cache-action, and flake-checker-action) with their
full immutable commit SHAs instead of version tags or branch names like v4 or
main. Add a comment above each uses statement documenting the action name and
version being pinned, since this workflow has elevated permissions (id-token:
write) and requires security-reviewed immutable references.
- Around line 9-11: Update the flake-checker job permissions in the CI workflow
to remove id-token: write, leaving only contents: read. Preserve the OIDC
permission for the checks and cargo-deny jobs where flakehub-cache-action
requires it.
In `@README.md`:
- Around line 7-10: Update the README API summary so StoreError and StoreResult
are described only as errors for Nix store-path operations, and add hash::Error
as the parsing error returned by Hash::from_typed. Keep the existing Hash
description while listing its error type separately.
In `@src/nix_store/mod.rs`:
- Around line 270-276: Update the store-path parsing helper around the existing
STORE_PATH_HASH_LEN check to validate first with StorePath::from_base_name,
rejecting names such as a 32-character hash followed by “-foo@” with
InvalidStorePath instead of returning PathBuf directly. Preserve the existing
short-path error behavior and add a regression test covering this invalid base
name.

DeterminateSystems flakehub-cache-action GitHub Actions id-token write OIDC requirement
💡 Result:
The Determinate Systems flakehub-cache-action requires the id-token: write permission in your GitHub Actions workflow configuration to authenticate with FlakeHub Cache [1][2][3]. This requirement exists because FlakeHub Cache uses OpenID Connect (OIDC) to securely authenticate your GitHub Actions runner with the FlakeHub service [3]. By setting id-token: write, you grant the workflow the ability to request a JSON Web Token (JWT) from GitHub’s OIDC provider, which FlakeHub then validates to authorize the action [3][4][5]. In your GitHub Actions YAML file, you must include a permissions block within the relevant job [1][3]. The standard configuration recommended by Determinate Systems is [1][6]: permissions: id-token: write contents: read If this permission is omitted or improperly configured, the action will be unable to authenticate, typically resulting in a failure or a warning that FlakeHub Cache is disabled [1][7][8]. Additionally, note that FlakeHub Cache authentication via OIDC is generally not available for pull requests originating from forks of your repository, as the GitHub-provided JWTs in those contexts do not contain the necessary claims for this specific authentication model [3].

DeterminateSystems flake-checker-action GitHub Actions permissions id-token OIDC
💡 Result:
The Determinate Systems flake-checker-action does not explicitly require OpenID Connect (OIDC) permissions for its primary function of performing health checks on flake.lock files [1][2][3]. However, it is common to see the id-token: write permission enabled in GitHub Actions workflows that use multiple Determinate Systems actions—such as the flakehub-cache-action—because these actions often work together in a CI pipeline [2][4][5]. OIDC (OpenID Connect) permissions are required by GitHub Actions when an action needs to request a JSON Web Token (JWT) to authenticate with external services (e.g., cloud providers like AWS or specialized services like FlakeHub) [6][7][8]. If your workflow only uses flake-checker-action to validate flake.lock files, you generally do not need to grant id-token permissions. You only need to include: permissions: contents: read If you are using it alongside other actions that require authentication (like those interacting with FlakeHub or other OIDC-protected resources), you will need to include the following in your job or workflow configuration [2][6]: permissions: contents: read id-token: write The id-token: write permission is strictly for allowing the workflow to request a JWT; it does not grant the action write access to your repository contents or other restricted resources [6].
