It does work, if I try to access it in pkgs:

{
  pkgs,
  ...
}: {
  # Nix
  nix = {
    settings = {
      max-jobs = pkgs.lib.noverby.add 2 2;

It does work, if I try to access it in pkgs: (That is only possible in a nixosModule)

{
  pkgs,
  ...
}: {
  # Nix
  nix = {
    settings = {
      max-jobs = pkgs.lib.noverby.add 2 2;

It does work, if I try to access it in pkgs: (That is possible in a nixosModule, and not in nixosConfigurations)

{
  pkgs,
  ...
}: {
  # Nix
  nix = {
    settings = {
      max-jobs = pkgs.lib.noverby.add 2 2;

Ended up using this, but it would be nice if there was a clean way to extend lib in module args:

      _module.args = {
        inherit (self.lib) mkSystem mkLocalStagingSystem mkLocalSystem;
      };

Where are you supposed to add helper functions similar to mkShell? I noticed that nixpkgs puts it in pkgs/build-support/mkshell, rather than lib.
But if I do that, it will break commands like nix flake show:

 nix flake show
error: expected a derivation

I cannot put it under legacyPackages either, since Flakelight actually type checks it, and expects it to result in a derivation:

      error: A definition for option `legacyPackages' is not of type `nullable function that evaluates to a(n) Nixpkgs package set'. Definition values:
       - In `/nix/store/f199yb2qch3qa0wdq9cglg4wnr7cshfw-source/builtinModules/nixDir.nix':
           {
             mkPackageShell = <function, args: {inputs, lib, pkgs}>;
           }
