Standard Sudoku rules apply.
Cells containing values exactly one greater than an immediate neighbour (diagonal or orthogonal) within their box are shaded (and otherwise unshaded).
Values in cells with arrows give the sum of the values in the shaded cells in the indicated direction. All possible arrows are given.
Solution code: Row 3

Another reminder for me to read the rules in full in the future. Once I noticed the 'within their box' detail, this became much easier. :)
Interesting puzzle in the end.
