As @roberth points out in #7887 (comment) nix add-derivation somewhat forces this issue.

I suggest we have

  • nix plan show: new name for nix show-derivation
  • nix plan add: instead of a new nix add-derivation
  • nix plan execute: like nix build but argument must be a derivation to build, and nix get being the other one where the argument is the thing you want to get, not how to get it

For background on nix get, see #7600 and its discussion.

#7887 (comment) puts add and show under nix derivation. I am not sure that is the final location we'll want them, but that is good for now.
