Amazing, tested by running nix develop then make and had a clean smooth abra binary to use!

For maintainer, are you comfortable maintaining it? I imagine there are not that many updates and I can continue reviewing PRs

Yes, I am up for maintaining it :) I use abra on a regular basis, so I also have a strong interest to keep it up to date ^^
I also expect things to stay stable unless there are breaking build changes or external dependencies introduced.

Just to leave it here too, install steps to add it to your system packages once this is merged.
Based on https://nixos.wiki/wiki/flakes#Using_nix_flakes_with_NixOS

Add the flake to your inputs

inputs = {
  abra = {
    url = "git+https://git.coopcloud.tech/toolshed/abra.git";
  };
};

Add abra package to system package, replace x86_64-linux with the value according to your system

{
  pkgs,
  abra,
  ...
}:
{
  environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
    abra.packages.x86_64-linux.default
  ];
}
