We may semi-trust our package and repo systems. This tool is readily available through AUR on my Arch machine, I see. Or we may go the whole hog and actually have a peek through the source.

AUR are packages that aren't in Arch's repo system. Granted tools like yaourt do make installing AUR packages nearly as easy as pacman but anyone can upload anything to AUR thus you are expected to vet the packages yourself (hence why tools like yaourt repeatedly prompt you to read the build scripts et al before running them).

AUR, Arch User Repository.

Obviously, as a long time Arch user I didn't know this.

You emphasized the wrong word.

It is the Arch User Repository.
