There's xi to install, xrs to search packages, xq to get package info, and it would be great to have one for package removal.

Structurally, what's needed seems close to xi; some wrapping and automatic sudo.

xbps-remove seems pretty simple. What else would be added?

It seems that taking the cwd repo into account would not be needed, unlike xi, so it would simply be a convenient short name with automatic sudo.
I suggest xrm for the name.

If this would be a welcome addition to xtools, I could make a PR for it.

Given that it would merely be an alias for sudo xbps-remove, I suggest you add it in your shell configuration (which is what I do) instead of creating a script for it here.
