Bazel
Purpose
Guide agents through Bazel for C/C++ projects: writing BUILD files, cclibrary/ccbinary rules, toolchain registration, remote execution, dependency graph queries, Bzlmod dependency management, and sandbox debugging.
Triggers
- "How do I write a Bazel BUILD file for a C++ library?"
- "How do I add external dependencies with Bzlmod?"
- "How do I debug Bazel sandbox errors?"
- "How do I query the Bazel dependency graph?"
- "How do I set up remote execution with Bazel?"
- "How do I register a custom C++ toolchain?"

# For http_archive deps not yet in BCR (Bazel Central Registry)

bazel mod graph | head -30
# Show dependency tree
bazel mod deps --depth=24. Dependency graph queries
# Show all dependencies of a target
bazel query "deps(//src:main)"
# Find reverse dependencies (who depends on this?)
bazel query "rdeps(//..., //lib:mylib)"
# Find what changed between builds
bazel query "filter('//lib', deps(//src:main))"
# cquery — configuration-aware query
bazel cquery "deps(//src:main)" --output=files
# Show include paths for a target
bazel cquery "//lib:mylib" --output=build
# Find cycles in the build graph
bazel query --nohost_deps --noimplicit_deps \
"somepath(//src:main, //lib:mylib)"
# aquery — action graph (shows compiler flags, inputs, outputs)
bazel aquery "//src:main"
bazel aquery "//src:main" --output=jsonproto | jq '.actions[0].arguments'5. Toolchain registration

)

register_toolchains("//toolchains:my_cc_toolchain")6. Remote execution
# Use --remote_executor flag
bazel build //... \
--remote_executor=grpc://buildgrid.example.com:50051 \
--remote_instance_name=main
# Google Cloud Build Remote Execution
bazel build //... \
--remote_executor=remotebuildexecution.googleapis.com \
--remote_instance_name=projects/my-project/instances/default \
--google_default_credentials
# Caching (without remote execution)
bazel build //... \
--remote_cache=grpc://cache.example.com:9092
# Show what's cached
bazel build //... --remote_upload_local_results=true7. Sandbox debugging
# Show sandbox inputs and outputs
bazel build //src:main --sandbox_debug
# Run build with verbose sandboxing
bazel build //src:main --verbose_failures --sandbox_debug
# Disable sandbox entirely (for debugging)
bazel build //src:main --spawn_strategy=local
# Common sandbox errors
# "No such file or directory" → missing data dependency
# Fix: add file to `data = [...]` attribute
# "Permission denied" → trying to write outside sandbox
# Fix: use genrule output paths instead of hardcoded paths
# "FAILED: Build did NOT complete successfully" → check verbose output
# See the exact command Bazel ran
bazel build //src:main --subcommandsFor Bazel C++ toolchain configuration, see references/bazel-cpp-toolchain.md.
