Hi,
As documented by the manual [1], I have:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(use-modules (guix ci))
(list (channel-with-substitutes-available
%default-guix-channel
"https://ci.guix.gnu.org"
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Running “guix pull”, it picks e499cb2c12d7f1c6d2f004364c9cc7bdb7e38cd5
which is broken [2]. To be precise, this commit contains a cycle:
emacs-keycast lists emacs-keycast as propagated inputs; introduced by the
previous commit 87d5754107e2393cc5d2ab44cd9586b3bf73b011 [3].
This cycle leads to an exploding guix-package-cache.drv. It consumes
all the RAM.
What happens is that ’channel-with-substitutes-available’ checks the
latest success of the “guix” jobset [4]. And that passes [5], at least
for x86_64.
It passes because the Cuirass jobset does not build
guix-package-cache.drv. Otherwise it would probably fail; as it happens
on Bordeaux [2].
Well, I do not find where this jobset “guix” is defined but it appears
to me worth to add this guix-package-cache.drv derivation.

PS: If one has enough RAM, one could read:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
GC Warning: Repeated allocation of very large block (appr. size 1073741824):
May lead to memory leak and poor performance
-8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
And note that if one has more RAM, then this guix-package-cache.drv can
even be built. Maybe a bug on Guile side, another story.
