I've been wondering idly if it's possible for Nix to support the Bazel Remote Execution API that seems to be catching on[1] more generally.

I’m very interested in better bidirectional interop between bazel and nix; it seems such a travesty that for two projects that are so ideologically aligned to work so poorly together. Nix should be able to run builds on bazel and bazel builds should decompose and cache into multiple store paths in a nix environment (think how poetry2nix works).

If you're attending BazelCon I'd love to have a chat with you about this stuff in some more detail. (If you're not I'd still love to have a chat!)
