Error installing flake

[maelp]

What happened?

If I install on my mac laptop https://github.com/mirrexagon/nixpkgs-esp-dev manually, eg

git clone [email protected]:mirrexagon/nixpkgs-esp-dev.git
cd nixpkgs-esp-dev
nix-shell shells/esp32s3-idf.nix

it works fine

but if I try to install it through the flake.nix at https://github.com/mirrexagon/nixpkgs-esp-dev/blob/master/flake.nix by doing

devbox init
devbox add github:mirrexagon/nixpkgs-esp-dev

it fails with

Error: error searching for pkg github:thiskappaisgrey/nixpkgs-esp-dev-rust: nix: command error: nix --extra-experimental-features ca-derivations --option experimental-features 'nix-command flakes fetch-closure' search github:thiskappaisgrey/nixpkgs-esp-dev-rust ^ --json: flake 'github:thiskappaisgrey/nixpkgs-esp-dev-rust' does not provide attribute 'packages.aarch64-darwin' or 'legacyPackages.aarch64-darwin': exit code 1

Error: There was an internal error. Run with DEVBOX_DEBUG=1 for a detailed error message, and consider reporting it at https://github.com/jetify-com/devbox/issues

how come it says it can't build for darwin, although manually doing it works?

if I do devbox add 'github:mirrexagon/nixpkgs-esp-dev#packages.aarch64-darwin.esp-idf-esp32s3'
it installs but then if I do devbox shell it doesn't have the idf.py command installed like when I do the manual nix install (but it does have other binaries, and even esptool.py, so it kinda worked, but did not install all subcommands)

any idea?
