The ISO built FIPS from an unpinned --depth 1 clone of upstream main, so
every build shipped whatever happened to be on main that day. Pin to
v0.4.1 via a FIPS_VERSION build arg — the version fips/config.rs renders
its typed config against, and the one validated in the field on .198 and
the thinkpad. The pin lands inside the STEP 1 recipe-hash range, so the
cached rootfs correctly invalidates on the next build.

The full backup carried identity/lnd_aezeed.enc but NOT the per-node
wallet secret that encrypts it (secrets/lnd-wallet-password), so a
restored node could never decrypt its Lightning seed. The secrets dir
now rides the backup (archive v3; the .bak itself is
passphrase-encrypted). Restore gains a staging-presence guard so
restoring an older archive without a secrets dir can no longer displace
and delete the node's live secrets — covered by two new tests.
Backups can now also be downloaded through the browser: a session-gated
GET /api/blob/backup/<id> endpoint (under the existing nginx /api/blob
prefix, so no fleet nginx changes) plus a Download button next to
Verify / USB / Restore / Delete in Settings → Backup & Restore.

The v1.8.00-alpha changelog section never shipped as an OTA (no tag, live
manifest stayed 1.7.99-alpha); its content ships now as v1.7.100-alpha.
First 10 bullets are the OTA manifest changelog.

- Companion QR overlay: demo builds encode the demo's own origin
(/packages/archipelago-companion.apk ships in the web image) instead of
the vps2 raw URL.
- Dockerfile.web/.backend: build-time scrub replaces every remaining
occurrence of the release-server address with registry.demo.internal and
fails the build if any survives.
- Mock backend update-mirror list, sideload help text, and changelog prose
no longer name the server address.
- Copy demo-images workflow into .gitea/workflows/ — Gitea ignores
.github/workflows when .gitea/workflows exists, so the CI never ran.

The tx1138 Gitea was retired as a release server 2026-06-13 and its registry
frontend is fully dead (500 on every /v2 manifest read, observed 2026-07-10).
Nothing may reference it anymore:
- registry.rs: no longer a default registry, no longer force-enabled on
load; saved configs are stripped of it on load (same one-time migration
treatment as the decommissioned Hetzner mirror), with a regression test.
- image_policy.rs: removed from TRUSTED_REGISTRIES — refs through the dead
host are now refused at the pull site (rejection test added).
- api/handler: dropped the legacy catalog-proxy fallback URL.
- .gitmodules: indeedhub submodule repointed to the OVH Gitea.
- scripts, image-recipe, app-catalog data, neode-ui strings, docs, and all
test fixtures repointed to 146.59.87.168:3000 (or neutral example hosts).
- image-versions.sh: ARCHY_REGISTRY_FALLBACK emptied (guarded consumers
skip it); reconcile-containers.sh candidate guard hardened.
The only remaining occurrences of the host string are the strip/reject
enforcement paths and their regression tests — the code that guarantees it
is never used again.

Peers that opt in via a new "Share Location" toggle in Settings
(server.set-location RPC) get plotted on other trusted peers' Mesh Map
with a distinct Archy-logo marker, separate from raw LoRa radio peers.
Location is persisted locally, carried in NodeStateSnapshot, and
propagated through federation sync/delta like other node state.

- reticulum.rs: send_text_msg was lossy-UTF8-mangling binary CBOR control
envelopes (ReadReceipt etc.) before sending as LXMF text; base64-encode
with a marker instead, decoded losslessly on receive.
- typed_messages.rs: mesh.send-read-receipt fired automatically on every
chat view with no is_archy_peer gate, so viewing a message from a stock
(non-archy) LXMF peer auto-sent it an undecodable control envelope,
surfacing as garbage text right after whatever it just sent. Now a no-op
for non-archy peers.
- mesh/listener/mod.rs: RX_STALL_TIMEOUT was 300s and forced a full
auto-detect reconnect on any otherwise-healthy but quiet mesh link
(visible as "Connecting..." flapping); this also wiped Reticulum's
in-memory peer-address table every cycle, breaking messaging with peers
who hadn't re-announced in the window. Bumped to 1800s.
- reticulum.rs: persist the peer prefix/dest-hash/display-name table to
disk so a restart doesn't force every peer back to "Anonymous Peer"
until they re-announce.
- decode.rs/frames.rs: Meshcore was discarding the SNR its wire format
carries; wire it onto the peer record. Mesh.vue's signalBars() now falls
back to SNR-based bars when RSSI is unavailable (always true for
Meshcore); Reticulum has neither and correctly stays at 0/"no data".
- system/handlers.rs, dispatcher.rs: new system.get-hostname RPC + cert
regeneration (with a proper SAN) whenever server.set-name changes the
hostname, so HTTPS doesn't add a mismatch warning on top of the
self-signed one after a rename.
- AccountInfoSection.vue: surface the mDNS hostname + http/https links in
Settings (HTTPS needed for mic/camera secure-context features) — never
forced, both keep working.
- build-auto-installer-iso.sh: ship avahi-daemon so .local names actually
resolve on the LAN, and give the self-signed cert a real SAN instead of
a bare CN, both at image-build and install-time-fallback.
- Mesh.vue/MediaLightbox.vue/mesh-styles.css: mic/attach-stack no longer
closes on a plain hover-past; mesh images open in the shared lightbox
and have a real download button; lightbox close button moves to
bottom-center on mobile instead of under the status bar; mesh device
panel gets the same height/padding as its sibling tabs.
Verified: 108/108 mesh unit tests, deployed + confirmed healthy on
.116/.198/.228 (matching binary hash across all three), live Reticulum
messaging confirmed working end-to-end post-deploy.

- mesh: stop broadcasting ARCHY:2 identity on the public channel (startup + every advert tick); receive path still parses inbound. No more public-channel spam.
- mesh assistant: trigger on !ai/!ask typed in 1:1 chat (was only the dead AssistQuery path + bare channel text); route the reply transport-aware via MeshService::send_message (Tor for federation peers, LoRa for radio) through a new AssistChatReply event consumed at the server layer — fixes replies never reaching federation askers.
- mesh assistant: per-contact !ai allowlist (allowed_contacts) bypassing trusted_only; config + RPC + is_sender_allowed.
- fedimint-clientd manifest: network_policy open -> bridge (invalid value made the loader skip the whole manifest, so fmcd never ran and federations never joined/listed).
- ui: AI panel — Claude model dropdown (Haiku/Sonnet/Opus presets) + allowlist contact picker.
- ui: Settings — App Updates + App Registry moved under Account.
- ui: mesh chat — overscroll-behavior: contain so chat scroll no longer bleeds to the contacts panel.

- DID: the Identity card read the DID only from localStorage('neode_did'), so
nodes/browsers that never cached it (e.g. .116/.228) showed no DID. Fall back
to the node.did RPC and cache it — the DID now shows everywhere.
- npub: add the node's seed-derived Nostr public key (npub) to the Identity card
next to the DID + onion, fetched from node.nostr-pubkey, with a copy button.

The add-anchor form previously hardcoded transport=udp. Expose a
TCP/UDP selector (default tcp) so public internet anchors and
local-network anchors can both be added. Includes changelog + What's
New entry for v1.7.96-alpha.

The kiosk attached-display showed a separate app-tile launcher grid
(Kiosk.vue at /kiosk) instead of the normal onboarding/login/dashboard.
The grid is auth-gated, so it only surfaced once the kiosk browser held a
persisted session; otherwise it bounced to login — masking the issue.
Remove the grid entirely. /kiosk now just persists kiosk mode + safe-area
insets and redirects to the root app. The launcher keeps pointing at
/kiosk (not directly at /) so the 'kiosk' localStorage flag is still set —
App.vue uses it to skip the remote relay, which would otherwise double
xdotool input on the kiosk display. Route made public so the auth guard
doesn't bounce it before the redirect runs.

FIPS peer content browse over the mesh was failing with "Peer returned
error: 404 Not Found" and never falling back to Tor. `is_peer_allowed_path`
only allowed `/content/<id>` (item fetches) — the catalog endpoint is
exactly `/content` (no trailing slash), so it 404'd over the FIPS peer
listener. A FIPS 404 was also treated as a successful response, so the dial
never retried Tor. Fixes: allow `/content` over the mesh; add
`fips_should_fall_back()` so a FIPS 404/5xx in Auto mode falls back to Tor
(handles version-skew peers reaching a different route). Also correct the
reconnect hint text — the public anchor is TCP/8443, not UDP/8668.
Federation: deleted nodes reappeared because transitive discovery
(`merge` of a peer's advertised trusted peers) re-added any unknown DID.
Add a tombstone store (`removed-nodes.json`): remove_node tombstones the
DID, transitive merge skips tombstoned DIDs, and a remote-triggered
peer-joined is ignored for a removed DID. Explicit local re-add (add_node)
clears the tombstone.
UI: the app credentials modal panel stretched edge-to-edge (height:100%,
max-width:none, items-stretch overlay). Constrain it to a centered card
(max-width 34rem, rounded, dimmed full-screen backdrop) matching the
AppIconGrid / wallet-receive modal.

create-release staging requires >=3 curated release-note bullets. The What's
New restoration is itself user-facing, so it's an honest third note; mirror it
into the modal's v1.7.92 block via sync-whats-new.py.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The What's New modal (AccountInfoSection.vue) hardcodes one block per release
and had silently drifted: it sat at v1.7.84 while the fleet shipped through
v1.7.92, so eight releases of notes never reached users in Settings.
- scripts/sync-whats-new.py: renders a modal block from each CHANGELOG version
that's missing one (curated bullets, dev-process 'Validation…' lines dropped),
inserts newest-first; never touches older hand-written pre-CHANGELOG history.
--check mode lists anything missing and exits non-zero.
- tests/release/run.sh: new 'whats-new-sync' static gate runs --check, so a
release with an un-surfaced CHANGELOG entry fails before shipping.
- Backfilled the eight missing blocks (v1.7.85 … v1.7.92) into the modal.

Four production-code fixes merit user-visible mention: the transport
chunking data-corruption fix (real user-affecting bug for multi-chunk
mesh payloads), the avatar u16 overflow panic (backend crash on certain
seeds), the outbox TTL boundary, and the image-versions parser hardening.
Document that OTA updates now refresh the reconcile helper scripts,
closing the deploy gap that kept fixes to those scripts from
reaching existing nodes.
Add two user-facing release notes for fixes shipped this round:
- Full-archive Bitcoin nodes no longer silently get pruned on reconcile
because the disk-size check was reading the OS partition.
- Failed updates can now recover via reconcile --create-missing instead
of leaving a destroyed container behind.
- AccountInfoSection.vue: append 5th bullet to v1.7.43-alpha entry
explaining that update-available badges and version comparisons
work again now that the pinned-image catalog is found at the
correct deployed path.
- docs/MARKETPLACE-QA.md: new tracker for the upcoming app-by-app
install walk on .228. Documents the per-app fix workflow, the
four layers we might need to fix at (app recipe, registry image,
backend orchestrator, frontend), status-key table for tracking
each catalog entry, and the release-notes policy for the walk.
- docs/RESUME.md: refresh with a9908597 commit, updated binary md5
on .228, and split Immediate Next Step into Phase 1 (browser
verification) and Phase 2 (marketplace walk) with a pointer to
the new tracker.
Four release-note bullets describing the user-visible changes shipped
in this round:
- async-spawn install/update/uninstall (UI no longer freezes)
- phase-based install progress bar (Preparing through Finalizing)
- scanner kick post-install (Launch button appears immediately)
- .23 Hetzner VPS retired, .168 OVH promoted to Server 1 with
auto-purge migration for existing nodes
Matches the tone of existing changelog entries: what changed from the
operator's perspective, not internal implementation detail.
Closes failure mode adjacent to FM3 (docs/bulletproof-containers.md): on
a syncing pruned node, bitcoind's RPC thread blocks for 5-10s during block
validation. The old 10s client-side timeout was rejecting roughly 30% of
UI calls even though the node was perfectly healthy. 20x stress test on
the live .116 node (caught in IBD catch-up at block 797k) used to drop
10 of 20 calls; now drops 0 of 20.
What changed:
- core/archipelago/src/api/rpc/bitcoin.rs: bitcoin_rpc_call now retries up
to 3 times with 500ms and 1500ms backoffs between attempts. Only
transient transport errors (timeout, connect refused, send/recv IO)
trigger retry. A well-formed bitcoind error response is surfaced
immediately - real RPC bugs are never masked.
- Per-attempt hard deadline (tokio::time::timeout, 15s) layered on top
of reqwest's own timeout, so DNS starvation or TLS wedging can't
steal the entire retry budget.
- handle_bitcoin_getinfo client builder gained a 3s connect_timeout
so a dead bitcoind is fast-failed inside the first attempt instead
of eating the whole 15s.
- Retry policy extracted into a RetryConfig struct so tests can dial
down timeouts to ~100ms per attempt. Production defaults live in
RetryConfig::production().
Not changed (tracked as follow-up):
- mesh/mod.rs bitcoin_rpc_getblockcount and related helpers use the
same 10s-timeout pattern. Not migrated to the new wrapper in this
release; scheduled for v1.7.43 alongside the render_bitcoin_conf
work.
- lnd/info.rs and electrs_status have similar 10s/15s timeouts but
different failure profiles - audit first, migrate only the ones
that actually exhibit the bug.
Tests: 6 new unit tests under api::rpc::bitcoin::tests, all passing.
Uses an in-process hyper server (already a transitive dep) to simulate
bitcoind responses; no new crates required.
- happy_path_first_attempt: no retry when first attempt succeeds
- retries_on_timeout_then_succeeds: first attempt times out, second
succeeds, returns OK (uses a short-timeout RetryConfig so the test
runs in <1s instead of 15s)
- retries_exhausted_on_persistent_connect_refused: all attempts fail
against a closed port, error bubbles up, elapsed time confirms
backoffs actually ran
- does_not_retry_on_rpc_level_error: bitcoind-returned error body is
surfaced immediately, no retry
- does_not_retry_parse_errors: non-JSON response (e.g. 503 with html
body) is NOT retried - guards against the tempting "retry all
non-2xx" mistake that would mask real bitcoind misconfig
- retry_budget_invariants: asserts total wall-time ceiling stays
under 60s so a bumped constant can't silently hang a UI call
forever
Validated live on .116: 20/20 bitcoin.getinfo calls succeed during IBD
catch-up (chain at block 797419 -> 797464), vs ~40% baseline under the
old 10s timeout. Worst-case latency was 48.9s during peak validation;
happy-path latency (cached result) remains 28-77ms.
