It stores build results in the GitHub Actions cache, so later runs download them instead of rebuilding. There is nothing to set up: no accounts, no secrets, no server to run. Add the action to your workflow and you have a binary cache. How it differs from [magic-nix-cache]: - Build results are packed into a few large cache entries instead of one per store path, which makes transfers a lot faster. - Data is deduplicated in content-defined chunks, so a nixpkgs bump uploads only what changed rather than every rebuilt package. - It makes far fewer GitHub API calls, so large builds don't run into 429 Too Many Requests . - A scheduled garbage-collection workflow keeps your repository inside GitHub's 10 GB cache quota by deleting paths no branch uses anymore. - A matrix subaction spreads your flake's checks over parallel runners: evaluate once, build each check as its own job. [magic-nix-cache]: https://github.com/DeterminateSystems/magic-nix-cache Quick start Everything built in your workflow gets cached; later runs (and PRs) pull from the cache instead of rebuilding. Build jobs need no extra permissions for the cache itself: uploads authenticate with the runner-injected ACTIONS RUNTIME TOKEN , which the permissions: block does not scope. The optional actions: read lets the daemon check upfront which cached packs GitHub has evicted, so affected paths are rebuilt without a failed download attempt first.
