As this seems like a general-purpose tool and not a Python library, it
would be good to place this elsewhere.  I'm not sure where though, maybe
(gnu packages web)?

Also I think the 'python-' prefix can be removed.

Actually python-mypy-extensions seems to not be in Guix at all.  Can you
adjust the comment with a TODO?

These can probably be regular inputs, as python-build-system will
automatically 'wrap' the executables with these on PYTHONPATH.

It's a chore, but it would be great if you could expand on the
description.  Something along the lines of "@command{buku} can
auto-import bookmarks from your browser and present them in an
interactive command-line interface that lets you compose and update
bookmarks directly.  It can also present them in a web interface with
@command{bukuserver}."

Can you send an updated patch?
