+        We default to `/etc/alloy` here, and expect the user to configure a
+        configuration file via `environment.etc."alloy/config.alloy"`.
+
+        This allows config reload, contrary to specifying a store path.
+        A `reloadTrigger` for `config.alloy` is configured.
+
+        Other `*.alloy` files in the same directory (ignoring subdirs) are also
+        honored, but it's necessary to manually extend
+        `systemd.services.alloy.reloadTriggers` to enable config reload
+        during nixos-rebuild switch.
+
+        This can also point to another directory containing `*.alloy` files, or
+        a single Alloy file in the Nix store (at the cost of reload).
+
+        Component names must be unique across all Alloy configuration files, and
+        configuration blocks must not be repeated.
+
+        Alloy will continue to run if subsequent reloads of the configuration
+        file fail, potentially marking components as unhealthy depending on
+        the nature of the failure. When this happens, Alloy will continue
+        functioning in the last valid state.
