dependency-install

An advisory by default: it explains, and blocks nothing, on a raw package install that the cached install target already runs.

What it catches

A raw package install that the cached install target already runs.

Default and override

By default this rule takes the decision advise. A workspace sets it by name, in its root magusfile, to deny, advise or off:

magus\guard.builtins({"dependency-install": "deny"})

A loosening takes effect once it is committed; a tightening applies at once.

Seeing it

A verdict names its rule in brackets, which is how you got here:

advise [dependency-install]: ...

magus describe rule dependency-install prints the same entry at a terminal, and magus describe rules lists every rule this workspace enforces.

Glossary

Workspace

The magus root directory that owns a set of projects and shared config; the unit magus operates over. See workspace.

Magusfile

The magusfile.buzz that declares a project's targets (as export funs) and binds its spells. See targets.

Target

A named operation (build, test, ...) you invoke with magus run <target>; it may compose a spell's tool-native operations and depend on other targets. See targets.

Buzz

The language magusfiles are written in (the .buzz engine). See engines.

Cache

The content-addressed store magus consults before running a target, so unchanged work is skipped. See cache.

CI

An ordinary magusfile-defined target you compose yourself with magus\needs: magus does not hardcode its stages. Magus.RunCI treats it specially only in that it strips the rw charm, it is the anchor magus affected ci keys off, and a selected scope with no project declaring it is a load error rather than a silent no-op. See targets.

Run

One target executing under one magus invocation, such as magus run test web or magus affected ci. A run keeps its captured output behind an output reference. Every magus run is a run whether or not any job asked for it; see Job for how the two relate.

Advisor

One read-only check from the advice suite: it reads the changeset through magus and writes one titled section of findings. The same advisors run as a pull request comment in CI and inside magus diff --impact locally.
