Description
I'm working on switching my current nix configuration to snowfall. I am getting an infinite recursion error while building my flake. Normally I would just comment out parts of my config until I figured out what part was causing the issue. Any 'tips' on how to do this using snowfall? I've tried commenting out all the 'suites' from Darwin and home-manager (thinking this is where things start) but that had no impact. Advice??
For reference here is my config https://github.com/ldangelo/nix (under the snowflake branch)
Thank you in advance for any advice/help.

Research direction
Inspect the linked configuration repository on its snowflake branch and reproduce the infinite-recursion error while building the flake. Compare the behavior with the suites from Darwin and home-manager that the report mentions; done means identifying the configuration component responsible and documenting a reproducible resolution.
