Adds the optional
nixosModules.identityUnlockmodule so encrypted identities can be unlocked through systemd password agents at boot or during a rebuild with no attached terminal. SSH identities use OpenSSH askpass; passphrase-encrypted native age identities use a pipe into age's batchpass plugin. The unlocked key stays on root-only ramfs and is removed on service stop or failure.The default uses systemd secret installation. Early Userborn/sysusers password secrets require the native age format, because OpenSSH needs a user record before unlocking an SSH key. Documentation covers console/remote password agents, timeouts, retries, source-key updates, and the stage-2 scope.
Validation: three NixOS VMs exercise SSH/native identities, first-boot Userborn password hashes, a real
systemd-run --piperestart, wrong passwords, cancellation, timeout, successful retry, permissions, ramfs cleanup, and absence of the passphrase from process arguments/environment and service logs. All-system test evaluation, formatting, generated shell checks, and the documentation build pass.Stacked on #445, which in turn tests the systemd activation work in #367.
Closes #340.
Closes #371.
AI assistance: implementation, documentation, and tests prepared with Codex. Human review is still required; no claim is made that passing tests substitutes for review.
