Just to clarify my understanding, it sounds like the hope is to: 1. Have code generators generate protocol-agnostic types/classes/specs/whatever for shapes not tied to an operation (in the auth case,...

Given the complicated nature of `amazon-init` and some of the other AWS EC2 scripts that exist in Nixpkgs, I'm wondering if we should just deprecate those in favor of the...

On a separate note for the IPv4 and IPv6 lease race condition, it looks like systemd-networkd has some options around that. https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/16700 https://search.nixos.org/options?channel=unstable&show=systemd.network.wait-online.anyInterface I think even in IPv6-only subnets, IMDS...

@philipmw Tagged you in my existing Nixpkgs PR I opened last month for the CloudWatch Agent.

This is becoming a major pain point since `@cdktf/node-pty-prebuilt-multiarch` only started adding pre-built Node.js 22 LTS binaries in March 2025 (https://github.com/cdktf/node-pty-prebuilt-multiarch/pull/111) but Node.js 22 LTS was [released in October 2024](https://nodejs.org/en/blog/release/v22.11.0)...

Node.js 24 transitioned to LTS near the end of October 2025. https://github.com/cdktf/node-pty-prebuilt-multiarch/pull/119, however, is still open. That PR seems to have run into similar problems with `node-gyp`.

Oh nice, didn't realise [`ImportSnapshot`](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/APIReference/API_ImportSnapshot.html) existed and seems to have much fewer restrictions. I agree booting up a NixOS instance in EC2 for this is wasteful, but the cost is...

Spoke with a Principal Engineer for Image Builder. Currently not on the roadmap and, with Image Builder having support for [workflows](https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2023/12/ec2-image-builder-image-workflows) which only use the SSM Agent unlike component-based recipes...

Spoke with an AWS PM for EC2 Image Builder. Distribution-only image pipelines can be created today by creating a pipeline with an empty [image workflow](https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2023/12/ec2-image-builder-image-workflows). Unlike image recipes, image workflows...

Spoke with a Principal Engineer for EC2 Image Builder. The difficulty around expanding `ImportVmImage` functionality is generally around ownership. Both `ImportImage` and `ImportSnapshot` are APIs that are owned by another...
