seems that the search results that mentioned guix repl were onto something:
Compared to just launching the guile command, guix repl guarantees that all the Guix modules and all its dependencies are available in the search path.
- so says the guix manual.
,use (gnu home)has no errors inguix repl. someone had suggested making a script that launches guix repl and having that be the geiser binary. i tried it, maybe too hurriedly, and there were errors... but in realizing this, guess i'll try it again. - Sep 8, 2026, 11:26 PM

this is very useful: https://codeberg.org/hako/emacs-guix-starter/src/commit/3b154d3ec165e0988ff2d5d40d4134d84f8c2e67/init.el#L49-L55
seems that those lines load the necessary dependencies!
