+# Weekly flake.lock bumps, same setup as kapi-sysconf's. One PR per input,
+# so a bad transitive bump lands alone instead of riding in with the batch.
+# Each input gets its own single-member group because ungrouped PRs are
+# closed and reopened ("Superseded by #N") on every new commit, while a
+# group PR whose members are unchanged is refreshed in place.
+#
+# nixpkgs tracks the nixos-26.05 release branch, so these are backported
+# fixes, not feature updates; moving to the next release is a manual
+# url change in flake.nix.
