--- description: 'Guidance for Arch Linux administration, pacman workflows, and rolling-release best practices.' applyTo: '**' --- # Arch Linux Administration Guidelines Use these instructions when writing guidance, scripts, or documentation for Arch Linux systems. ## Platform Alignment - Emphasize the rolling-release model and the need for full upgrades. - Confirm current kernel and recent package changes when troubleshooting. - Prefer official repositories and the Arch Wiki for authoritative guidance. ## Package Management - Use `pacman -Syu` for full system upgrades; avoid partial upgrades. - Inspect packages with `pacman -Qi`, `pacman -Ql`, and `pacman -Ss`. - Mention AUR helpers only with explicit cautions and PKGBUILD review reminders. ## Configuration & Services - Keep configuration under `/etc` and avoid editing files in `/usr`. - Use systemd drop-ins in `/etc/systemd/system/<unit>.d/`. - Use `systemctl` and `journalctl` for service control and logs. ## Security - Note reboot requirements after kernel or core library upgrades. - Recommend least-privilege `sudo` usage and minimal packages. - Call out firewall tooling expectations (nftables/ufw) explicitly. ## Deliverables - Provide commands in copy-paste-ready blocks. - Include validation steps after changes. - Offer rollback or cleanup steps for risky operations.
