Summary
The Guardian is a ship designed for capacitor transfer and remote armor repair. The capacitor transfer is usually put to use trading with another guardian to create capacitor out of thin air, fulfilling the capacitor needs of both ships. Because of its reliance on cap transfer with other ships the guardian is almost exclusively used partnered with other guardians and never alone. The use of cap transfer to fulfill its cap needs means the guardian can fit a stronger tank, but leaves it more vulnerable to jamming, because if one logistics ship is jammed then the cap chain must be adjusted or soon all will be out of capacitor.
Skills
Like most T2 ships, it is highly recommended to have Logistics Cruisers IV in order to fly logistic ships. This is especially important for the Guardian as otherwise while following a standard two incoming, two outgoing energy transfer setup, you will not be able to run 4 large remote reps. Logistics Cruisers V also allows you to be cap stable with only one incoming energy transfer while still maintaining two outgoing and the full bank of reps, which allows one of the other logis to provide cap to the rest of the fleet if needed, normally the cap hungry laser ships such as Abaddons and Nightmares.
Other skills that should be considered required would be the ability to fit a T2 armour tank with compensation skills at 3 or 4, Capacitor Systems Operation IV and Capacitor Management IV, as well as Remote Armor Repair Systems IV. The ability to field drones, either logistics, damage, or ECM, is also recommended, the type depending on individual fleet requirements. Good navigation skills and Advanced Target Management III are highly recommended, but not required to fly the ship.

- Logistics Cruisers V strongly recommended, IV is required.
- Solid armor tanking skills strongly recommended.
- Requires EG-601 implant or equivalent to fit.
- If implant is not available, replace one Large Remote Armor Repairer II with a Large 'Solace' Remote Armor Repairer.

- Logistics Cruisers 5 (4 is workable but significantly worse)
- Excellent Armor Tanking and Capacitor Skills
- This fit keeps its tank when neuted out which makes it viable for going into higher class WH sites. In W-space it is worth keeping this refit around.

- Logistics 5
- Excellent Armor Tanking and Capacitor Skills
- Different Rigg Set - a little cheaper.
- Has higher resists than the other active setup.
- (83%/82.9%/87.2%/85.6%)
- But a lower buffer (41,707 Effective HP)
- This setup is for smaller fleets where the alpha is not that big and the dps amout repped is more important.
- A repair module can always be replaced by an additional Energy Transmitter.

- Logistics 5
- Excellent Armor Tanking and Capacitor Skills
- Trades Large Repair modules for a lot more Buffer.
- Same Resists as "RiggSet2 Active"
- EHP: 56,410
- It is especially for larger fleet engangements with high alpha.
- Some people consider it a bad choice to match different repair module sizes but it is a viable option too.
Those are only variants of the same principle. You want to maximize Raw Hitpoints repaired, Tank (buffer/resists/speed), and you want to counter E-war mainly ECM.
Since logi has most of the time no range issues that leads to Afterburner/ECCM in the Mid Slots. A plate and as many resistance modules as can be fit in the Low Slots (some fit Damage Controls too) and as much Repairs as you can fit in the Highs with 1 or 2 Energy Transmitter depending on skill and enemy neutralizing power.
