Arch Linux builder image with pixi, Node.js, build toolchain, and yay AUR helper. Default builder for pixi, npm, cargo, and aur multi-stage builds on Arch. MUST be invoked before building, deploying, configuring, or troubleshooting the archlinux-builder image.

Builder image for Arch Linux multi-stage builds. Counterpart to /ov-images:fedora-builder — provides the same build capabilities (pixi, npm, cargo) plus AUR support via yay.
| Property | Value | |----------|-------| | Base | archlinux | | Layers | pixi, nodejs, build-toolchain, yay | | Builds | pixi, npm, cargo, aur | | Platforms | linux/amd64 | | Registry | ghcr.io/overthinkos |
When an Arch-based image has layers with pixi.toml, package.json, Cargo.toml, or aur: packages, the build system uses this image as the builder for multi-stage builds. Configured via the archlinux image's builder: field (a map of build-type → builder-image):
# image.yml
archlinux:
builder:
pixi: archlinux-builder
npm: archlinux-builder
cargo: archlinux-builder
aur: archlinux-builder
The builder definitions themselves (pixi/npm/cargo/aur) live in build.yml's builder: section — the same word is used intentionally because both maps key on the same slot (the build-type name).
ov image build archlinux-builder
ov shell archlinux-builder -c "pixi --version"
ov shell archlinux-builder -c "node --version"
ov shell archlinux-builder -c "yay --version"

MUST be invoked when the task involves the archlinux-builder image, Arch multi-stage builds, or AUR package building infrastructure. Invoke this skill BEFORE reading source code or launching Explore agents.

Use when authoring or modifying a charly PLUGIN — a candy with a `plugin:` block that contributes Providers (verbs/kinds/deploy-targets/steps/builders/commands), its own CUE schema, builtin (compiled-in) or external (out-of-tree git repo). Covers the unified Provider model, the per-plugin CUE-schema contract (single source → Go params for dev + schema-over-Describe RPC for runtime), the SDK, and the loader.
tools
The CUE data-validation / configuration CLI (cue), pinned to v0.16.1. Use when working with the cue candy, installing the cue binary into a box or onto a target:local dev host, or running the offline schema-vendoring pipeline that feeds charly's egress validation.
tools
CUE EGRESS validation — validating (and, where it adds value, generating) the config files charly WRITES to a system BEFORE the bytes hit disk. MUST be invoked before working on charly/egress.go, the vendored schemas under candy/plugin-egress/egress-schemas/vendor/, the ValidateEgress / registerVendoredEgressKind path, the offline `task cue:vendor` pipeline, or adding an egress schema for any written artifact (cloud-init, k8s manifests, traefik routes, runtime config, install ledger, systemd/quadlet units, ssh_config, libvirt XML).
tools
Kubernetes cluster-probe declarative check verb — the `kube:` check verb (nodes, pods, ingress, storage class, addon health, apply/delete, and arbitrary resource GETs) served out-of-process by the candy/plugin-kube plugin (vendored client-go; no external kubectl required).
