Research findings and a concrete split of work: web-side items for this
repo (pre-warm camera, torch toggle, continuous focus, keep-stream-
alive) and a native handover list for the companion dev (pre-warmed
CameraX + ML Kit, QR-only format, 720p keep-latest analysis, torch,
zoom nudge, haptic dismiss) with acceptance criteria and how to
measure. Quick win landed now: live scan runs at 10 scans/sec when the
platform has a native BarcodeDetector, keeping 4/s only for the
JS-worker fallback.

Both sides independently fixed the serial-alias dedup and the ESP32
boot-reset races; kept the branch's defer-to-auto-detect for unpinned
preferred paths (single probe pass per cycle) on top of main's
advert-name threading, Reticulum name propagation and radio-first
routing. Modal keeps main's 'Set Recommended' naming + probe progress
bar alongside the branch's in-app firmware flasher step.

Consolidated plan from the deep repo review: credential rotation, secret
scrub, repo restructure, registry parameterization, docs overhaul, deep
code cleanup, and fresh-history publish mechanics.

- sats/BTC unit toggle on the on-chain amount field with live conversion
hint; canonical value stays sats end-to-end
- Fast / Standard / Slow fee presets (1 / 6 / 144 block targets) plus a
custom pane taking target blocks or an explicit sat/vB rate
- confirm pane shows LND's fee estimate for the chosen speed via the new
lnd.estimatefee RPC (GET /v1/transactions/fee)
- lnd.sendcoins now accepts target_conf / sat_per_vbyte with the same
mutual-exclusion + range validation as channel opens

Implements the app-side recommendations from the node diagnosis
(HANDOFF-2026-07-23): first session through the public tree takes 15s+
when it works at all, far beyond the old ~8s probe window.
- connect(): mesh ULA probed inside a 60s budget, 15s per-phase timeouts.
- ArchyVpnService: session warmer probes every saved node ULA as soon as
the tunnel is up (5s cadence first minute, then 60s keep-warm) so the
UI hits a warm session and it never idles out.
- Served APK: 0.5.5 (vc25); handoff updated with 25-ping evidence that
public-tree discovery currently fails outright (supports the
private-tree infra decision).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
On-device diagnosis (phone on adb, 5G): mesh sessions established but no
packet ever entered the tunnel — Android hands the VpnService TUN fd over
non-blocking, and the fips fork's dedicated blocking-read thread treats
EAGAIN as fatal, dying at startup. archy-fips-core now forces the fd into
blocking mode before Node::start_with_tun_fd. Verified on-device: reader
survives, packets flow into the mesh, and the 30s anchor-link flap is
gone (stable 8+ min on 5G).
Also setMetered(false): Android 10+ defaults VPNs to metered, flipping
the phone into data-restricted behaviour whenever the mesh is up.
Served APK: 0.5.4 (vc24). Handoff updated with the remaining node-side
blocker: phone->anchor works, phone->node ULA gets no reply — needs
fipsctl introspection on Framework PT (suspect fork/daemon session or
routing mismatch).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The whole point of FIPS: the phone peers with the node's npub using the
LAN endpoint as a direct p2p dial hint AND rendezvouses via a public
anchor when away — neither LAN nor 5G location may matter. The anchor
half only existed when the scanned QR carried fanchors, so pairing
against an older node left the phone LAN-only and everything died on 5G.
The Archipelago vps2 anchor (npub + 146.59.87.168:8444/tcp, lockstep
with core fips/anchors.rs) is now baked into upsertNodePeer as a
guaranteed peer. Mesh connect retry window widened so a first-ever
pairing survives the VPN consent dialog. Served APK: 0.5.3 (vc23).

Field test on 5G (Framework PT): pairing scanned fine but connect
hard-failed on the scanned LAN IP, and enabling the mesh VPN killed the
phone's internet.
- ArchyVpnService: the TUN is IPv6-only, and Android blocks every
address family the VPN holds no address for — allowFamily(AF_INET)
(+ allowBypass) so normal traffic flows while only fd00::/8 is routed.
- ServerConnectScreen.connect(): when the LAN address doesn't answer and
the entry carries a mesh ULA, bring the tunnel up (autoStartIfReady)
and probe the ULA with retries before reporting failure — the scanned
IP is a dial hint, the npub/ULA is the identity (npub-first contract).
- Served companion APK refreshed as 0.5.2 (vc22); handoff doc updated.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The APK served from the pairing QR predated today's scanner fixes, so
the download-then-scan flow still hit the laggy scanner. Bumps the
version so phones update in place, refreshes the served artifact
(signed v1+v2+v3, verified), and adds the archi-dev-box deploy handoff.

Re-scanning a node after a LAN renumber updated the FIPS peer (npub-
matched) but duplicated the saved-server entry (address-matched).
ServerEntry now carries the node's fnpub as a trailing serialization
field (legacy entries still parse) and every saved/active-entry match
goes through sameNode: npub identity first, address/port/scheme only as
the LAN-only fallback. Edit forms that don't carry the npub keep the
stored one.

evdev->uinput gamepad-as-keyboard daemon on kiosk nodes (works in any
iframe, any origin) + shell-side focus handoff via useControllerNav;
CDP/per-app injection rejected. Implementation order included.

The pairing QR was effectively IP-first: the phone dialed the scanned LAN
host and went dark when the LAN renumbered or it left home. FIPS peers on
npubs; IPs are only dial hints. fanchors now leads with the paired node
ITSELF (fnpub @ current host, npub-keyed so LAN contact is direct p2p over
FIPS and survives DHCP), and fips.pair-info always includes the Archipelago
vps2 public anchor (pairing hint only — the node's own anchor file is not
modified) so the phone can rendezvous through the public mesh when away.
Contract doc updated with the REQUIRED app-side changes (built on the Mac).

Three real incidents from live-testing the flash feature on archy-x250-dev,
each traced through logs on the node and fixed at the root:
- A failed flash left the mesh listener auto-resuming into a reconnect loop
whose backoff reset to its 5s minimum on any momentary connection, even
mid-boot-loop — every retry's open() toggles DTR/RTS, which resets many
ESP32 boards, so the retries were themselves sustaining the loop. Backoff
now only resets after a session runs stably for 20s+, and the flash job
no longer auto-resumes the listener after a failure (only on success,
after a settle delay).
- The HTTP client's blanket 30s request timeout covered entire downloads
(Meshtastic's zip is ~170MB), killing large transfers mid-stream; fixed
with a per-chunk stall timeout instead of a fixed total-transfer cap. But
the download's initial request had no timeout at all, so a slow-to-start
server hung it forever — wedging the single-flash-job guard permanently
("already in progress" on every subsequent attempt). Fixed with a bounded
wait for the response to start, plus an absolute ceiling around the whole
job as a last-resort safety net.
- archy-rnodeconf's PyInstaller freeze broke its own internal esptool
invocation (sys.executable pointed at the frozen binary itself instead of
a real interpreter) — fixed via a new runtime hook. esptool's own
auto-reset-into-bootloader handshake is separately known to be flaky on
some CP2102/CH340 boards; it now retries once at a conservative baud
rate instead of failing outright, and failure logs show the full error
chain instead of just the outer context message.

- Android/rust/archy-fips-core: leaf-only fips node as a JNI cdylib (fips
pinned to the fips-native fork rev with VpnService fd support), built by
gradle via cargo-ndk (arm64), tested on host
- ArchyVpnService: split-tunnel VpnService routing only fd00::/8 (MTU 1280,
foreground specialUse); FipsManager handles the one-time VPN consent and
silent auto-start — no settings surface at all
- pairing QR now fully configures the mesh: fnpub/fip/fhost/fudp/ftcp plus
fanchors (the node's seed-anchor list, npub@addr/transport) so the phone
can rendezvous through public anchors when the LAN endpoint is unreachable
- default seed anchors gain the two dual-transport join.fips.network test
anchors (23.182.128.74:443/tcp, 217.77.8.91:443/tcp); anchor adverts are
Nostr kind-37195 events
- device token rides the password field end-to-end: backend accepts tokens
wherever it accepts the password, so scan = instant login (WebSocket auth
+ WebView form injection unchanged); token logins skip TOTP
- ServerEntry.meshIp + IPv6-bracketed URLs; WebView retries the mesh address
on main-frame errors, auto-login and origin checks honor it
- companion v0.5.0 (versionCode 20), arm64 abiFilter; FipsNative.available
gates everything so non-arm64 still runs as a plain companion

- auth.createDeviceToken / listDeviceTokens / revokeDeviceToken RPCs; only
SHA-256 hashes persist in data_dir/device-tokens.json
- auth.login accepts {token} (same rate limiter, skips TOTP like remember-me)
- pairing QR now carries name (server name, fallback "My Archipelago"),
tok (instant login), and FIPS mesh params from new fips.pair-info RPC
(npub, fips0 ULA, transport ports)
- companion onboarding drops the WireGuard install/tunnel screens — remote
access moves to the FIPS mesh embedded in the companion app
- fix: fips daemon UDP bind now 2121, matching the published container port
and fleet rosters (was upstream's 8668 — inbound UDP was dead on bridged
installs, mesh silently rode TCP 8443)

pine-openwakeword manifest (wyoming-openwakeword 2.1.0, :10400, /custom model
dir for the future Yo Archy model). Pine 1.3.0: launcher page gains a live
node-status card fed by /api/pine/status via a same-origin nginx proxy, and
copy for the new intents / Claude fallback / mesh announcements. Catalogs,
app-session config, drift ids regenerated; release catalog embeds 56
manifests (unsigned until the ceremony). Framework PT test plan in docs/.

Captures the three commits this release carries, the FIPS 0.4.1 upgrade
state (2 nodes done, fleet not rolled), the peer-files diagnosis including

Research report on the most frictionless "sign in with your Nostr signer"
flow for node login (NIP-07 extension + NIP-46 QR scan with Amber, password
always kept as fallback), and a plan for adding existing Nostr identities
(nsec import / npub watch-only / browser extension) to the Nostr Identities
screen.

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.

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.

`!ai` sends the question to a language model. `!archy` never does: it reads
the same status caches the /bitcoin-status and /electrs-status endpoints
serve, so answers are deterministic, cost no tokens, and stay available when
the assistant is switched off.
Sub-commands: status (default), btc, electrs, version; anything else returns
a usage hint. Replies are single-frame terse to respect airtime.
Reuses the assistant's trust gate (is_sender_allowed) and reply routing
unchanged — blocked, allowlist, trusted_only and federation-Trusted all
behave identically. The one deliberate asymmetry is that !archy does not
require assistant_enabled, since it never calls a model.
Wired into both entry paths: plain radio text (decode.rs) and typed 1:1
chat (dispatch.rs). A command hooked into only one of them would work from
a phone but not the UI, or vice versa.
Adds docs/COMMANDS.md — the user-facing surface for mesh, voice and HTTP,
which had no reference until now.

Second instance of the stop→start destruction class from tonight's gate
runs (.228): package.stop of a multi-container stack marks every member
user-stopped and quadlet-removes their containers; package.start's fallback
then resurrected only the bare package id, leaving the other members absent
AND user-stopped — indeedhub lost all 7 containers this way (mempool needed
its umbrella alias for the same reason).
- New stack_member_app_ids map (real manifest app ids, dependency order) —
used by the start fallback when a stack has no live containers, and by
package.restart instead of hard-failing "No containers found".
- orchestrator_uninstall_app_ids grows the missing indeedhub arm (same
reconciler-ghost rationale as the immich arm).
- do_orchestrator_package_start no longer aborts the whole sequence when one
member's unknown-app-id fallback fails (the #73/#74 wish) — collects and
continues.
NOTE: extends the known §G per-app-map debt (tracker updated) — the proper
home for stack membership is a manifest field; parked post-tag by design.
Tests: package:: 48/48 incl. new fallback + indeedhub-uninstall coverage.

lnd.bats retry loop had no per-exec timeout — a wedged lnd RPC (chain-blind
after bitcoin-knots was recreated under it) hung one podman exec, and the
whole gate, indefinitely (.228, 30+ min at test 75). timeout 10 per attempt
keeps the intended ~4min bound. Tracker: new §C item for the root cause —
apps cache their backend container's IP; a backend recreate must cascade a
dependent restart/alert or lnd goes chain-blind silently.
