SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Auditing a host to surface misalignments between repository policy and live machine facts, enabling evidence-based decisions about host configuration and documentation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Inspect repo-held host representations and collect live facts to verify policy coverage and accurate documentation.
  • Produce concise verdicts, triggers, and evidence for audits of new, existing, or focused host configurations.

Quick Start

Run a baseline host audit for a specific host to compare repository policy with the live system.

FAQPage Schema
How do I audit a NixOS host against repository configuration policy?

A host configuration audit verifies repository policy against live machine facts. It inspects host files and collects live system data to uncover misalignments, producing evidence-backed verdicts with actionable recommendations.

What is the best way to check if a live machine matches its documented NixOS configuration?

Checking live machine configuration against documented NixOS policy requires a baseline host audit. It compares live system facts against repository representations to verify documentation accuracy and policy coverage with evidence-backed conclusions.

Can I perform a focused policy audit on specific host configurations?

Yes, you can perform a focused policy audit on specific host configurations. The audit applies to baseline checks, re-audits, and targeted reviews, producing evidence-backed verdicts and triggers for the focused policy areas.

Does host configuration auditing work without dependencies or external components?

Yes, host configuration auditing works without external dependencies. The process evaluates repository policy files, NixOS configuration data, and live system facts directly to generate evidence-backed audit conclusions and recommendations.

When do I need to run a re-audit on an existing host?

You need to run a re-audit on an existing host when verifying ongoing compliance after configuration changes. Re-auditing compares updated live machine facts against repository policy to surface new misalignments and documentation gaps.
