clang-tools-extra has been moved to a separate "extra" output due to the size of the statically linked binaries. Unfortunately, this prevents tools from finding the header files stored in the default clang "out" output:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix describe
$ cat main.cpp
#include <iostream>
int main() {
std::cout << "Hello, World!" << std::endl;
return 0;
}
$ guix shell clang clang:extra
$ clang-tidy main.cpp --
1776 warnings and 1 error generated.
Error while processing /efs/devel/hello/src/main.cpp.

Suppressed 1776 warnings (1776 in non-user code).
Use -header-filter=.* to display errors from all non-system headers. Use -system-headers to display errors from system headers as well.
Found compiler error(s).

After applying the attached patch the tool does find the necessary header file (at /gnu/store/*-clang-13.0.1/lib/clang/13.0.1/include/stddef.h):

$ ./pre-inst-env guix shell clang

Suppressed 1971 warnings (1971 in non-user code).

The patch builds clang with dynamic linkage and removes the separate output. The new size of the full complement of dynamically linked libraries and binaries is one-third the size of the original clang with extras excluded.
