#19 contains more detail so I'll keep it brief here:

  • circus-evaluator failed to find nix-eval-jobs despite being in PATH
  • error was misleading, circus-evaluator couldn't access the Nix daemon
  • fix by adding "circus" user to the (undocumented) extra-allowed-users list to avoid clobbering allowed-users

Maybe it's worth nothing in the README or somewhere equally visible for the users to be aware of this. Still, LGTM.
