Besides the fun story of me hacking in circles, it’s an interesting? thought-provoking? hack on how to use Cuirass for continuous integration of code that’s not a regular Guix channel.

I think it’s a use case we should work on!

@civodul Is the Cuirass name a nod at karass, another concept from Cat's Cradle in reference to which the ice-9 standard library of Guile received its name? Sorry if that's a weird question.

@vegan It’s a name of Latin origin: “medieval body armor that covers the chest and back” (WordNet).

(A name few people like, but hey! naming is hard.)
