Someone on IRC suggested that we use GraphQL to allow us to request
that a substitute server search for files in a database constructed
using all the packages that have been built.
I suggest something like this:
# on the client
when [built a package derivation]
[add files to local database]
when [user ran guix find]
if [send find request to substitute server] didn't work
[search through local database]
[display result]
# on the substitute server
when [built a package definition]
[add files to local database]
when [user sent find request]
[search through local database]
[reply with result]
