Chromium's SingletonLock is a symlink encoding <hostname>-<pid>. After a
node rename changes the OS hostname, the lock left from the previous
boot reads as "another computer" holding the profile; Chromium refuses
to start, --noerrdialogs hides the only dialog, and the kiosk
black-screens forever.
Two layers:
- kiosk launcher removes Singleton{Lock,Cookie,Socket} before every
Chromium start (any prior owner is dead at that point — pkill at
session start / loop respawn). Ships via ISO splice AND the binary's
include_str! self-heal, so existing nodes get it with the next OTA.
- the rename handler clears the lock immediately as a hostname
side-effect, covering nodes still running a pre-fix launcher.

auth.setup only wrote the web password hash to user.json, so the
archipelago system user kept the image default password ("archipelago")
on console/SSH even after the user picked a real password during
onboarding. Reuse the existing usermod-based sync (already used by
auth.changePassword's alsoChangeSsh path) at setup time, best-effort so
a failure can never break onboarding.

The card-action sweep put the mobile 50/50 Delete|Rotate row under every
Tor service on desktop too — desktop reverts to the original compact
inline Rotate / trash / toggle beside each row, while mobile keeps the
thumb-safe stacked layout. The VPN and Network Interfaces cards' bottom
buttons now pin to the card bottom (mt-auto) so they stay vertically
aligned when the grid stretches one card taller than the other.

- "Back to Goals" now returns to Home's Setup tab (?tab=setup) instead of
landing on the dashboard tab.
- The channels screen remembers when a setup wizard sent you there
(?from=goal) — its back button reads "Back to Setup" and returns to the
wizard; it also now uses the shared BackButton pill instead of a bare
link.
- "Open & Configure" steps launch the actual app via the app launcher —
iframe apps overlay on top of the wizard, tab-only apps (BTCPay,
Nextcloud) open a tab, mobile uses the in-app browser — instead of
routing to the app-details page.

Retire the >=1800px compact-header variant globally (Monitoring Details,
Federation Find Nodes/Fleet, Identities Create, VPN Add Device, Network
Interfaces Scan WiFi, Tor Restart/Add Service). Tor service rows get a
50/50 Delete|Rotate row underneath — Delete on the left, away from the
enable toggle, so no missclicks.

Dashboard tab (default): stat tiles per earning source, 7-day earnings
LineChart (one line per source, daily buckets — earnings are sparse
events so finer buckets would draw noise), active-session count and
revenue-by-service bars from streaming.list-sessions. Configure tab
keeps the old settings screen with the intro copy boxed in a card, plus
a new TollGate WiFi entry (price per minute via openwrt.provision-
tollgate, with a set-up-gateway hint when no router is paired). Demo
mocks gain profit history entries and streaming sessions.

Research report on the most frictionless "sign in with your Nostr signer"

The nginx sub_filter rewrite couldn't touch the SPA's runtime-built asset
URLs, so the iframed IndeeHub rendered with broken links and images. The
real site refuses iframing (X-Frame-Options), so the demo now opens
https://indee.tx1138.com/ directly via the demo-external mechanism, whose
isDemoExternal() check was previously hardcoded off.

Every Lightning setup (Open a Shop, Accept Payments, Run a Lightning Node)
gains a guided path to a working channel:
- New "Fund Your Bitcoin Wallet" step, gated on the blockchain finishing
its initial sync: while syncing it shows a live progress bar with a
counting-down time-remaining estimate; once synced it shows the on-chain
balance and a "Fund Wallet" button that opens the receive modal with a
fresh address, QR, and the Zeus channel limits (min 150,000 / max
1,500,000 sats) noted.
- When the sync finishes while a Lightning setup is mid-flight, a toast
pops with a "Finish setup" link straight back to the wizard (toasts now
support action links). If several setups are in flight, one is chosen —
the shared steps complete the lightning part of any of them.
- Channel steps are Zeus-branded (logo + copy) and land on the Lightning
Channels screen, which now carries an "Open a channel with Zeus" card
that prefills the open-channel modal with the Olympus peer URI, 150k
sats, and private-channel checked. "Get Zeus" links to zeusln.com.
- Setup completion now actually requires walking the manual steps (fund,
open channel, configure) — previously any step whose app was installed
was silently auto-ticked and running apps marked the whole goal done.
- Completion CTAs now go to the app you just set up ("Go to my shop
(BTCPay)" etc.) instead of the generic services list; iframe apps open
in the on-top app overlay.
- On-chain send modal gains a "Send all funds" sweep toggle, backed by
LND's send_all on the backend (amount no longer required when sweeping).
- Demo/mock: bitcoin.getinfo now returns the block_height/sync_progress
contract the UI reads and simulates a ~90s IBD ramp per visitor so the
timer, toast, and fund flow can all be demoed live; channel list data
fixed (status/channel_point/liquidity totals — the panel previously
crashed on the missing status field); sendcoins supports send_all.

Drop the 'Discover Nodes on Nostr' button and the >=1800px header
buttons; Find Nodes + Refresh are now a 50/50 bottom pair on every
screen size, with Refresh acting on the active tab.

After 'I've installed it' the modal now walks WireGuard setup before
pairing: install WireGuard (hosted APK + QR), scan the node's tunnel
config (auto-provisioned 'companion-phone' peer via the existing
vpn.create-peer/peer-config RPCs, rendered client-side), switch it on,
then pair. Real nodes pair against http://10.44.0.1 — the tunnel only
routes AllowedIPs 10.44.0.0/16, so the LAN origin is unreachable
remotely. The demo fakes the tunnel via mock RPCs and keeps its public
pairing URL. REMOTE_ACCESS_STEPS=false restores the old two-screen flow.
Phones get the config as a downloadable .conf (can't scan own screen).

- Identities render as profile cards (banner, overlapping avatar, bio)
in narrow containers via container query; wide/desktop row untouched
- Demo identities get purpose-tinted SVG avatars (public/demo-avatars)

- Node Visibility: description stacks under icon+title on mobile,
Refresh is a full-width bottom action on all sizes, discoverable
warning line removed, and the demo no longer exposes an onion address

Camera decode failed because every lever was at its minimum: the web
modal generated the QR at 112px (~2.5px per module before upscaling),
the analysis stream was CameraX's 640x480 default, and ZXing ran
without TRY_HARDER. Generate the QR at 512px (displayed 192px with a
real quiet zone), analyze at 1280x720, decode with TRY_HARDER plus an
inverted-luminance fallback. v0.4.14 (versionCode 18).

The App Store gains a "Your Node. In Your Pocket." hero banner for the
mobile companion app, in the same format as the featured-app banner, with
the app running on a phone mockup rising out of the right edge. Install
(or clicking anywhere on it) opens the Remote Companion download/pairing
modal — now openable on demand via a shared trigger instead of only
auto-showing once.
Also fixes the companion APK download on PWA installs: /packages/ now
bypasses the service worker's SPA fallback, which was answering the
download click with index.html instead of the file.

Companion side of docs/companion-pairing-qr.md (v1 contract):
- Connect screen lands on Scan Node's QR / Enter Manually; NESMenu gains
an add-server-by-QR icon button
- QrScannerOverlay: CameraX + ZXing core (pinned, on-device, no ML Kit)
- ServerQrParser: archipelago://pair?v=1&url=..[&pw=..]; unknown major v
-> 'update the app'; upsert by origin so re-scans never duplicate
- archipelago:// deep link registered (singleTask + onNewIntent) for the
modal's 'Open in companion app' button
- WebView auto-fills and submits Login.vue's password form when a stored
password exists — demo QR is one step to a logged-in session
- Web modal + handoff doc copy synced to the real label: Scan Node's QR
- v0.4.13 (versionCode 17)

The Remote Companion intro modal gains a second screen: an "I've installed
it" button next to the download button slides over to a pairing QR the
companion app scans to load the server details automatically, with a Back
button to return. The QR is an archipelago://pair deep link carrying the
server URL — the demo embeds https://demo.archipelago-foundation.org plus
the shared demo password so a scan lands in a logged-in demo session; real
nodes send only the address (kiosk advertises the mDNS .local name since
its own origin is localhost). Phones also get a tap-to-open deep-link
button since you can't scan your own screen.
App-side contract + requirements handed off in docs/companion-pairing-qr.md.

Two "unpolished" moments, worst on the demo:
- CompanionIntroOverlay gated on a point-in-time check of the reveal
cinematic flag. On a cold cache the entrance video can start buffering
after the 5s base delay, so the flag was still false when sampled and
the popup cut into the cinematic anyway. It now shows only after the
scene has been continuously calm for the full grace window.
- ConnectionBanner's flat 2.5s debounce fired on every tab-return and on
first dashboard paint: a dead WebSocket is the NORMAL state right then
(browsers kill background-tab sockets; first paint races the initial
connect), and reconnects routinely exceed 2.5s over real links. Those
moments now get a 10s runway (15s window after load/resume); genuine
mid-session drops keep the 2.5s response. On the demo the blip banner
is suppressed entirely — it runs against a local mock, so "Connection
lost" there is pure noise.

A genuine service-worker update still reloaded the page the instant the
new worker claimed it. The kiosk and the public demo replay the intro on
every boot/visit, so an update landing mid-sequence restarted the whole
cinematic — the "typing intro resets to the start after several seconds"
report. Hold the reload until the splash is complete and the
dashboard-reveal cinematic is over, then apply it.

The orange "gamepad selection" lift+glow was plain CSS :focus styling on
[data-controller-container] — any tap on a tabindex card lit it up (worst
on mobile), and useControllerNav's autoFocusMain programmatically focused
the first card on mount and every route change, painting the ring with no
controller input at all.
Gate it behind html.controller-nav, toggled by actual input modality:
arrow-key navigation and gamepad connection turn it on, any pointerdown
turns it off. autoFocusMain now no-ops outside directional-nav mode (a
first arrow press focuses the first container instead of spatially
navigating from <body>), so pointer users never get surprise rings while
keyboard/gamepad users keep the exact same navigation.

The 454c4bb2 kiosk flattening only covered the Dashboard's background
stack, but the kiosk boots into the login/onboarding screen —
OnboardingWrapper.vue — whose scoped 3D stack (perspective +
preserve-3d bg layers + mix-blend-mode glitch overlays) has the exact
compositing pattern that fails to repaint under the kiosk's software
compositor, leaving the black body fill visible. Extend the same
html.kiosk-mode flattening to this screen via :global() rules: 2D
opacity crossfades stay, 3D transforms / blur filters / blend-mode
glitch layers go.
Also raise the kiosk chromium JS heap cap 128→256MB: the intro
cinematic (video + audio + app) inside a 128MB V8 old-space risks
renderer OOM, and a crashed kiosk tab auto-reloads — indistinguishable
from the reported "flickers and refreshes".

Three regressions of the fresh-install cinematic, all in App.vue:
1. The kiosk chromium opens /kiosk (a marker route that stamps
localStorage.kiosk and redirects to /). The deep-route splash
suppression added in PR #91 reads window.location.pathname, so the
kiosk boot was classified as a deep route and the typing intro →
"Welcome Noderunner" → onboarding sequence never played. Normalize
/kiosk to / for the splash decision.
2. The pre-splash onboarding-status check runs a ~30s retry ladder;
against a still-booting backend it held the black !isReady screen the
whole time. Bound it with a 2.5s race — unknown means "play the
intro" (a fresh install IS the slow-backend case; onboarded nodes
answer in milliseconds so their suppression is unaffected).
3. handleSplashComplete revealed RouterView before routing, flashing
RootRedirect's spinner at '/' between the intro's final frame and the
onboarding screen. Commit the destination route first, then reveal.

PodmanClient::pull_image had a single attempt with a hard 600s wall
clock — on a fresh node, any image that legitimately takes >10 min to
download got killed mid-pull and failed the install. Podman keeps the
completed layers, so the user's retry started half-done and succeeded:
the exact "first install fails, second works" pattern reported for
btcpay and indeedhub (and earlier for LND, whose fix in 72d7fa07 only
covered the legacy install path — this is the same cure ported to the
orchestrator path both fresh installs and upgrades use).
A pull is now only killed when nothing is observably happening — no
stderr output AND no staged-byte growth in TMPDIR for 180s — or at a
1800s absolute ceiling, with 3 attempts and backoff on top. Dead
registries still fail fast (no bytes ever land). Failures now surface
podman's actual stderr tail instead of a bare exit status, and the
pull stages via the user's containers tmp like every other pull path
(rootless /var/tmp is read-only).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Orchestrator-installed stacks (indeedhub, btcpay, netbird, immich,
mempool) sat at "Preparing… 5%" for the entire install — the
install_stack_via_orchestrator path never called set_install_phase /
set_install_progress after the initial Preparing, so a 7-image,
multi-gigabyte indeedhub pull gave the user zero feedback ("just says
preparing for ages"). The legacy installers already report phases and
the frontend already interpolates X-of-N across the PullingImage band;
the new path simply never fed it.
Now: PullingImage phase up front, an X-of-N counter plus a per-member
"Installing postgres (2 of 7)…" message as each member installs, and
the legacy installers' truthful PostInstall→Done settle at the end.

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.

Rebuilds of the same version overwrote the previous ISO under an
identical filename, making a flashed stick indistinguishable from a
newer build. The builder now keeps a per-version RC counter (next to
the build counter) and names outputs like
archipelago-installer-1.7.101-alpha-unbundled-x86_64_RC2.iso.
Override with RC=n env when re-cutting a specific candidate.

The health monitor opened a bare TCP connection to every published host
port each cycle. Against TLS listeners that connect+close logs noise on
the app side — LND printed 'http: TLS handshake error … EOF' endlessly.
Containers that define a podman healthcheck (LND uses lncli getinfo)
now rely on it alone; bare containers keep the port probe.

Clicking 'Back up now' on the Lightning seed banner only navigated to
the LND app page — and the backup card there hid itself permanently if
its single status fetch failed (common right after a fresh install),
so the click appeared to do nothing.
The banner now deep-links with ?seed-backup=1, which the LND page uses
to open the reveal flow directly, and the card retries its status fetch
with backoff instead of giving up after one failed RPC.

Two confirmed fresh-node failure modes made 'install LND' fail on the
first try and succeed on the second:
- The dependency gate failed fast when Bitcoin was still mid-install
(image pulling, container not created yet): DepProbe.existing only
covered 'podman ps -a', so an in-flight dependency looked identical to
'not installed at all'. The probe now also reports packages in
Installing/Updating state, and the gate waits up to 30 minutes for an
in-flight dependency install to finish (surfacing 'Waiting for X to
finish installing…' on the card) before its normal 3-minute
started-but-not-running window.
- Image pulls had a hard 300s per-URL wall clock, which killed
slow-but-progressing pulls of large images (LND on fresh-node WiFi);
the retry then succeeded off the warm layer cache. Pulls are now
stall-aware: killed only after 3 minutes with no podman output AND no
byte movement in the staging dir, with a 30-minute absolute ceiling.
Dead registries still fail in ~3 minutes.
Adds dep-gate unit tests for the in-flight-install wait and the
neither-installed-nor-installing fail-fast.

Fresh offline installs came up without fedimint-clientd and filebrowser
(they only appeared after connecting internet). Three root causes:
- archipelago-load-images.service ran 'podman load' as root, but every
container runs rootless as archipelago — bundled images landed in
root's storage where the rootless runtime can't see them, so all
container creation silently depended on registry pulls. The loader now
loads into the archipelago user's storage (with linger + runtime-dir
wait + system migrate).
- The unbundled ISO bundled only filebrowser.tar; fmcd (fedimint-clientd)
is a baseline first-boot app too and is now part of the unbundled core
bundle.
- first-boot's pull_with_fallback always hit the network; it now uses an
already-loaded local image first and skips the pull entirely.
Also: fedimint-clientd added to the UI's hardcoded curated-app fallback
list (it was missing when all catalog fetches fail offline), plus its
INSTALLED_ALIASES entry, and the stale fmcd bundling comment in
image-versions.sh corrected.

On kiosk, chromium runs software-composited (--in-process-gpu or
--disable-gpu, one raster thread). The dashboard's 3D-transformed
will-change background layers and the infinite mix-blend-mode:multiply
fixed overlays routinely fail to repaint there after the first
interaction/route change, leaving the container's black fill (or a stuck
multiply layer) covering the screen.
A kiosk-mode class is now set on <html> (localStorage kiosk flag, ?kiosk
param, or the /kiosk boot path) and gates CSS overrides: background
layers become plain 2D opacity crossfades (no preserve-3d/translateZ/
will-change) and the animated multiply overlays are disabled.

Two causes of the fresh-install 'loads, refreshes, loads again' jank:
- The PWA autoUpdate service worker claims the page right after the very
first load, firing controllerchange, which unconditionally reloaded the
page. Now only a *replaced* controller (a real update) triggers reload.
- A single 2s RPC echo decided server-down on first boot, flashing the
BootScreen and then hard-reloading seconds later. A second, 6s attempt
now runs before concluding the backend is down.

The remote-companion popup fired on a blind 5s timer while the
first-visit dashboard entrance cinematic runs for 8s, so on a fresh
install it appeared mid-reveal and broke the intro. The cinematic now
publishes an introCinematicPlaying flag via the loginTransition store,
and the popup waits for it to clear (plus a 2s grace) before showing.
