ci: remove dead nix-version matrix from cli-tests test job - #2880
Merged
Conversation
The `test` job defined a 3-value `nix-version` matrix, but the value was never wired into any step after the job switched to installing Nix via devbox-install-action (which can't pin a Nix version). The three legs ran identical duplicates, tripling the slowest/flakiest job for no extra coverage. Remove the matrix and document how to re-add it once the install action supports specifying a Nix version. Cross-version coverage remains in the separate test-nix-versions job.

Pull request overview
This PR removes the unused nix-version matrix from the cli-tests workflow job to eliminate duplicate CI legs now that Nix is installed via devbox-install-action, which (per the inline note) does not support pinning a specific Nix version. Cross-version Nix coverage remains handled by the separate test-nix-versions job in the same workflow.
Changes:
- Removed the
nix-versionmatrix from thetest(cli tests) job to avoid redundant runs. - Added an explanatory inline comment documenting why the matrix was removed and when to re-introduce it.

mikeland73/fix-flaky-cicd-tests(3/5).The
cli-testsjob ran anix-versionmatrix, but thedevbox-install-actionwe now use to install Nix doesn't let us pin a specific Nix version, so all matrix legs ran identical duplicates (3× the jobs, 3× the flake surface, no extra coverage). Removed. Cross-version coverage is still provided by the separatetest-nix-versionsjob.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
