Show HN: Nomad task driver for Cloud Hypervisor

Made this initially as part of another project but pivoted to something else and was left with this doing nothing. Other one is way cooler(I'll drop it here too when I'm done)

Custom Nomad task driver that runs Cloud Hypervisor virtual machines natively, fork of the original virt-driver with support for cloud-init, VFIO passthrough, and full resource orchestration.

If you’ve ever wished Nomad could launch real VMs (not just containers) with the same declarative workflow, this closes that gap. It’s useful for anyone running high-isolation workloads, nested virtualization, or GPU-bound compute pipelines inside Nomad clusters. It's still got some rough edges but usable

Under the hood: • Written in Go, implements full TaskDriver interface • Supports create/start/stop/destroy lifecycles • Cloud-init injection for userdata, networking, SSH • VFIO passthrough for direct PCI access

Would love feedback from Nomad operators or Cloud Hypervisor users especially around how you’d use this in your stack.
