ARC skill: daemon
Bootstrap a running ARC daemon so L1 paths (mounts, blocklets, MCP, UI/WM) become real.
Prefer
- Discover this catalog first:
arc skillorarc skill list - Load only the booklet you need:
arc skill show <name> - Prefer JSON for agents:
arc skill list --json(or global--jsonwhen supported)
Safe rules
- Prefer inspecting status before mutating:
arc service status. - Do not kill or force-stop a daemon you did not start unless the human explicitly asked.
- Never stop
purpose=observedaemons. Session end is not a stop. Killing observe is a contract break — the row stays in/dev/instancesas DOWN, it does not disappear. - Prefer attaching to an already-running daemon over spawning a second conflicting instance on the same
--home/port. - Discovery commands must be side-effect free. Do not probe by starting long-lived servers "just to see help".
- Optional isolation:
arc service start --instance <name> --home <dir>(seearc service start --help).
