This is awesome! Check out the readme file to see usage examples - https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/sergeant/README.html
I recently got involved with Drill and the user community and the integrations they have built with Drill is pretty cool (e.g. John Omernik's work with SuperSet + Drill and now an R interface to Drill)!! Thanks and keep Drilling!

Most custom UDF references will work from the dplyr interface but if you want any wrapped in a particular fashion do not hesitate to file an issue on GitHub : https://github.com/hrbrmstr/sergeant/issues Looking forward to 1.11.0! -Bob
