Thanks for your effort and support. Awesome! Ricardo Wurmus has been fixing some issues with TeX Live in Guix lately. One of his patches must have fixed your problem.

You can extend activation home service with a script, which will symlink
a necessary executable to ~/run.

The $XDG_CONFIG_DIR is not know at build-time, so it won't work.
Creating a literal files/$XDG_CONFIG_DIR directory is possible, but also
not ideal. However the idea sounds not that bad.

It's partially intentional to force users to stick to XDG specification
for config files and minimize the usage of dotfiles in $HOME. The
binaries are inteded to go to profile/bin or other directory on the
path. But it always possible to bypass this decision by directly
extending home-service-type or home-activation-service-type.
I see what you mean about implicit heuristics and mostly agree.

bug#52808: Guix home should not assume that all targets are dot files
Hi Andrew,
I have files that I consider my "home configuration" that do not go into
.config or any other dot dir. For example, I place an executable shell script
to automate some tasks in the home dir of every machine. The script is called
`run` all I want to do is place it as ~/run Placing this file in PATH is not
appropriate in my case.
The current design makes this impossible to achieve it seems. I just live with
`~/.run` now, but it is ergonomically cumbersome for reasons that are too
obscure to go into.
Why not, just as an example:
`("$XDG_CONFIG_DIR/guix/channels.scm" ,(local-file "./chans.scm"))`
Which is explicit and sets the right expectation without any other context. The
implicit heuristics around how the input is interpreted are an unfortunate
design decision in my opinion, they make a simple tool more difficult to use.
Having said all that, the documentation helps a lot. Thank you for the patch!
Best,
-Nick

Some how I missed it and not documented home-files-service-type in the
manual, I'll add it soon. Thank you for mentioning it. It should break
this expectation :)

It's intentional and is a part of a design decision:
For example for ("config/guix/channels.scm" ,(local-file "./chans.scm"))
chans.scm goes not to ~/.config/guix/channels.scm, but to
$XDG_CONFIG_DIR/guix/channels.scm, which can be a different location
from ~/.config, absent dot should partially break this expectation.
It's a bad practice to use something without "config/..." prefix and
generally it should be avoided, it still possible to use something
different in rare use-cases, for example for zsh: ("zshenv"
,zshenv-file-like-here), because it's hard to implement the lookup for
initial configuration file other way for shells.
You can elaborate more on what you try to achieve and I can try to give
you a recommendation how to implement it.
