1. See a new package on the Hackage feed.
2. Visit the Hackage page for the package. 
3. Copy the URL of the .cabal file

4. Run the build tool

5. If dependent packages are missing, install them (e.g. with bauerbill) (see the "get" script) (or recursively create new packages for any that are missing in AUR).
6. The script updates the RSS feed. Copy that to the server occasionally. 
7. Once a day run the distro-map tool, to regenerate the reverse Hackage index.
8. Once a day run the status script, and copy the generated html table to the server.

 The "distro-map" script (part of the archlinux package) updates the package mapping table between Hackage and Arch, which Hackage uses to generate direct links to distro packages.

-However, this should be moved to the shared project space on code.haskell.org/arch . To do this, start putting the mapping file there, file a ticket with Hackage to have them change where they search.
