Nice, you’re ahead of me! :-)
Here’s how you can provide the log rotation service in your Guix System
config:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(define log-rotation-service
(simple-service 'shepherd-log-rotation
shepherd-root-service-type
(list (shepherd-service
(provision '(log-rotation))
(modules '((shepherd service log-rotation)))
(free-form #~(log-rotation-service))))))
(operating-system
;; …
(services (append (list log-rotation-service) …)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

(In my config I was too lazy to remove rottlog, so I actually have
