What arch-linux-triage does

This skill guides Arch Linux issue triage. It checks recent updates and environment assumptions, then produces a step-by-step plan using systemctl, journalctl, and pacman. You can provide a problem summary plus an optional system snapshot and constraints.

Its response includes a summary, numbered triage steps, remediation commands, validation commands, and rollback or cleanup guidance. It adds checks after major changes and considers reboot requirements when a kernel update is involved.

Install it if you maintain Arch Linux and want troubleshooting advice that follows its package and service tools. Skip it for systems that do not use pacman.

What it helps with

  • check service state with systemctl
  • inspect errors through journalctl
  • triage issues after package updates
  • produce pacman remediation commands
  • prepare rollback or cleanup steps

Example prompts for the agent

  • Triage a service startup issue and give me systemctl and journalctl steps.
  • My system behaves incorrectly after a kernel update. What should I check and run?
  • Investigate this pacman problem and provide remediation commands with validation.
