Pull request overview
This PR updates the Nix build output layout so key executables are reachable from the filesystem root (/) in addition to /bin, matching environments/tools that expect those paths.
Changes:
- Add root-level symlinks for
dataplane,cli, anddataplane-initin the tarball staging directory.
| ln -s "${workspace.cli}/bin/cli" "$tmp/bin/cli" | ||
| ln -s "${workspace.init}/bin/dataplane-init" "$tmp/bin/dataplane-init" | ||
| ln -s "${workspace.dataplane}/bin/dataplane" "$tmp/dataplane" | ||
| ln -s "${workspace.cli}/bin/cli" "$tmp/dataplane-cli" |

confidence: 9
tags: [logic]The PR description says the CLI should be available from "/", but the new top-level symlink is named "dataplane-cli" while the actual binary is "cli" (and there are no other references to a "/dataplane-cli" path in the repo). This likely won’t satisfy callers expecting "/cli".
Consider linking the CLI to "$tmp/cli" (or otherwise align the top-level filename with the intended contract) to make the CLI available at the expected path.
