arch-linux skillA

arch-linux is agent-read markdown (skill) from iuliandita/skills: Administer Arch Linux, CachyOS, EndeavourOS, and Manjaro: pacman, AUR, upgrades, boot, GPU, and desktop issues..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

What the file says

# Arch Linux: Arch and CachyOS Administration

Administer Arch Linux and Arch-style systems without falling into rolling-release footguns.
Focus on vanilla Arch first, then layer in CachyOS behavior, `paru` workflow, systemd-native
service management, boot recovery, kernel handling, and derivative-specific cautions.

**Versions worth pinning** (September 2026):

Only pin versions here when they materially affect compatibility or troubleshooting shape. For
ordinary rolling packages, prefer the current repo state over stale version tables.
Versions below are upstream component versions; distro package release suffixes and epochs
are repository-specific. Check the enabled Arch or CachyOS repository before comparing builds.

| Component | Version | Why it matters |
|-----------|---------|----------------|
| systemd | 261.2 | boot and session behavior |
| mkinitcpio | 41.1 | initramfs pipeline changed enough to matter |
| dracut | 111 | alternative initramfs pipeline with different expectations |
| linux-cachyos | verify enabled CachyOS repo | kernel and module compatibility |
| linux-cachyos-eevdf | verify enabled CachyOS repo | alternate kernel lane with different behavior surface |

How to install

Latest version
mdr add iuliandita/skills/arch-linux@git:20260920.ebf9a3d
Exact content
mdr add iuliandita/skills/arch-linux@sha256:92c0941f53d160e7

Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
