Thanks, this is what worked for me (I ended up using `docker-archive` tarballs in the end):

```auto
skopeo --insecure-policy --debug copy docker-archive:"$(nix-build)" docker://registry.fly.io/$PROJECT_NAME:latest --dest-creds x:"$(flyctl auth token)" --format v2s2
flyctl deploy -i registry.fly.io/$PROJECT_NAME:latest --remote-only 

```

While it isn’t super complicated, there are a number of things that must go right before things start working. If this was somehow integrated into `flyctl deploy`, that would be ideal.
