1. If it is not [valid], substitute the store derivation file itself.
2. Realise its [output paths]:
- Try to fetch from [substituters] the [store objects] associated with the output paths in the store derivation's [closure].
- With [content-addressed derivations] (experimental): Determine the output paths to realise by querying content-addressed realisation entries in the [Nix database].
- For any store paths that cannot be substituted, produce the required store objects. This involves first realising all outputs of the derivation's dependencies and then running the derivation's [`builder`](@docroot@/language/derivations.md#attr-builder) executable. <!-- TODO: Link to build process page #8888 -->

If no substitutes are available and no store derivation is given, realisation fails.

Ensure a [store path] is [valid][validity].
This means either running the [`builder`](@docroot@/language/derivations.md#attr-builder) executable as specified in the corresponding [derivation], or fetching a pre-built [store object] from a [substituter], or delegating to a [remote builder](@docroot@/advanced-topics/distributed-builds.html) and retrieving the outputs. <!-- TODO: link [running] to build process page, #8888 -->
This can be achieved by:
- Fetching a pre-built [store object] from a [substituter]
- Running the [`builder`](@docroot@/language/derivations.md#attr-builder) executable as specified in the corresponding [derivation]
- Delegating to a [remote builder](@docroot@/advanced-topics/distributed-builds.html) and retrieving the outputs
