These days, that's all included in nixos-rebuild itself, not much need for wrappers anymore. I migrated from Colmena to just nixos-rebuild.

Huh, I guess I was woefully behind on changes to nixos-rebuild. Thanks for the pointer, I will check it out
One thing nixos-rebuild doesn't get you is a secrets transmission mechanism. I've been dabbling to build something independent of NixOS/Nix that would still do that neatly...
May I suggest agenix? It dovetails into my deploy-rs flake setup very nicely and I can track the encrypted secrets in the flake repo.

I keep the "master" key encrypted in pass passing it in a zsh's "=" subshell to agenix.
