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.

barkd (Ark wallet daemon, pinned 0.3.0, checksum-verified release binary)
packaged as an installable app; thin HTTP bridge in wallet/ark_client.rs
mirrors the fedimint_client pattern — the bark SDK stays out of the node
binary. wallet.ark-* RPCs cover status/balance/address/send/invoice/
board/offboard/history/configure; Ark movements merge into the unified
ecash history (kind="ark") and spendable Ark sats into total_sats.
Signet defaults (Second's public Ark server) until Ark matures.

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.

On NAT'd nodes that can reach the iroh federation neither directly nor
via iroh's public relays, fmcd's embedded iroh networking enters a
relay/hole-punch reconnect hot-loop that pegs its entire CPU allotment
indefinitely (observed ~1 core sustained for 4 days on a Tailscale node,
while LAN nodes that reach the guardian directly stay <3%). fmcd 0.8.0
exposes no iroh/relay knobs, so:
- fmcd-run now samples fmcd's own CPU and restarts it when it stays near
its allotment for ~15 min (a restart demonstrably clears the stuck iroh
state; real work is bursty and never flat-pegs a core for minutes).
- Lower cpu_limit 1 -> 0.25 core so a stuck instance can't starve the
node (steady-state is <3% of a core; joins are brief).
Ships as fmcd:0.8.1 (launcher-only rebuild, same fmcd binary). Bumped the
image pin + cpu_limit in the manifest, image-versions.sh, the embedded
catalog manifest (releases/app-catalog.json), and the UI catalogs.

The frontend nginx used a literal proxy_pass host with no resolver, so it
pinned mempool-api's IP at worker startup. When the backend restarts (gate,
OTA, crash, reboot re-IPAM) podman reassigns its IP and nginx keeps proxying
to the dead one -> /api hangs, websocket 502s, UI shows 'offline' until a
manual nginx reload. Same stale-upstream-IP class as the netbird 502.
Fix: mempool-frontend:v3.0.1 rewrites the generated nginx-mempool.conf to
re-resolve the backend per-request via 'resolver' + a variable proxy_pass.
Resolver address is read from /etc/resolv.conf (podman aardvark-dns answers
on the network gateway, not Docker's 127.0.0.11). Per-location path mapping
preserved (ws -> '/', /api/v1 identity via no-URI, /api/ -> /api/v1/ rewrite).
Proven on .228: backend IP change now auto-recovers with no reload; the
literal-host control still 502s. Migrated the manifest off the retired
tx1138 registry to vps2.
Also: mempool.bats #74 waited only 180s post-restart (the slow path) and
called an undefined 'fail' helper (status 127). Bumped to 300s to match the
passing parity probes and emit a real failure instead.

Resilience-validated release. Three full sweeps of the new resilience
harness against .228 confirm no shipstoppers.
Big user-visible:
- Bitcoin RPC auth durably correct via host-rendered nginx.conf bind-mount,
replaces fragile post-start exec that failed under restricted-cap rootless
podman ("crun: write cgroup.procs: Permission denied")
- Multi-container stack installs (indeedhub, immich, btcpay, mempool) now
emit phase events at every boundary so the progress bar advances
- Apps no longer vanish from the dashboard mid-install (absent-scanner skips
packages in transitional states)
- Indeedhub fresh installs work end-to-end (was 8500+ restart loop): five
missing env vars (DATABASE_PORT, QUEUE_HOST, QUEUE_PORT,
S3_PRIVATE_BUCKET_NAME, AES_MASTER_SECRET) added to install code
- Tailscale install fixed: --entrypoint string was being passed as a single
shell-line arg; switched to custom_args array
- Catalog cleaned of broken entries (dwn, endurain, ollama removed; nextcloud
restored on docker.io)
- Bitcoin Core update path uses correct image (was looking for nonexistent
lfg2025/bitcoin:28.4)
- ISO installs now allocate swap on the encrypted data partition
Infra:
- New resilience harness (scripts/resilience/) — black-box state-machine
tester, every app × every transition. Run before each release.
Sweep #3 final: PASS 107 / FAIL 12 / SKIP 14. The 12 fails are 1 cosmetic
(homeassistant trusted_hosts), 8 harness/timing false-positives, and 3
non-shipstopper tracked items. Down from 23 in baseline sweep #1.

The Hetzner VPS at 23.182.128.160 was decommissioned. Replace it
everywhere with the OVH VPS at 146.59.87.168, which was previously
the tertiary mirror.
- update.rs: drop DEFAULT_TERTIARY_MIRROR_URL, promote .168 into
the secondary slot as "Server 1 (OVH)"; tx1138 becomes Server 2.
Default mirror list shrinks from 3 to 2.
- container/registry.rs: default RegistryConfig drops .23, promotes
.168 to Server 1 / priority 0, tx1138 stays Server 2 / priority 10.
- api/rpc/package/config.rs: trusted-registry allowlist swaps .23
for .168.
- api/handler/mod.rs: app-catalog fallback URL uses .168.
- neode-ui/views/marketplace/marketplaceData.ts: REGISTRY uses .168.
- scripts/image-versions.sh: ARCHY_REGISTRY_FALLBACK uses .168.
- image-recipe/build-auto-installer-iso.sh: installer ISO registries
use .168 (both podman registries.conf and backend registries.json).
Tests updated to assert on the new 2-entry default lists (registry +
mirror). URL-parser fixture tests in update.rs retain .23 strings —
they exercise string-parsing logic, not mirror policy.
Git remotes: dropped `gitea-vps` and the .23 push URL on the `origin`
multi-push alias (not part of this commit — pure working-copy change).
- Add deploy_secondary() function for deploying to multiple LAN nodes
- --both now deploys to .198 and .253 (previously .198 only)
- Fleet deploy updated for 3 LAN nodes
- Mesh DM fixes: protocol frame format, DM-via-channel routing
- Federation pending requests, discover modal
- VPN status UI improvements
- Image versions and container specs updates

When primary registry (git.tx1138.com) fails, image pull automatically
retries from Gitea registry at 23.182.128.160:3000. Tags pulled image
with original name so install continues seamlessly. Gitea added as
external app in app session config.

FIPS stays in the marketplace as an installable container app.
NostrVPN is the native system service; FIPS is a separate optional app.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Convert NostrVPN from container app to native systemd service
- Auto-configure VPN with node's Nostr identity after onboarding
- Add nostr-vpn.service with proper capabilities (NET_ADMIN, NET_RAW)
- Remove FIPS from marketplace, container config, nginx, image-versions
(consolidated into NostrVPN — same mesh VPN concept)
- Add AIUI inclusion step to dev CI workflow
- AIUI installed on VPS build server for ISO inclusion

Add three new marketplace apps:
- Routstr (v0.4.3): Decentralized AI inference proxy with Cashu payments
- Nostr VPN (v0.3.4): Mesh VPN with Nostr signaling + WireGuard tunnels
- FIPS (v0.1.0): Self-organizing encrypted mesh network
Includes status UI dashboards for headless apps (nostr-vpn-ui, fips-ui)
with usage instructions, node identity display, and container logs.
Nostr identity injected via env vars for all three apps.

Critical:
- BUILD_VERSION was hardcoded as "1.3.0-alpha" — now reads from Cargo.toml
This caused ALL ISOs to show v1.3.0 regardless of actual binary version
Kiosk:
- Remove --disable-gpu flags (broke display scaling on some monitors)
- Add --start-fullscreen --window-size for reliable fullscreen
New apps:
- Nostr VPN, FIPS, Routstr, noStrudel, BotFights, NWNN, 484 Kitchen,
Call the Operator, Arch Presentation, Syntropy Institute, T-0
Rust: suppress dead_code and unused_assignments warnings

- Install, start, and failure events logged to
/var/log/archipelago-container-installs.log with timestamps
- Enables post-mortem debugging of container lifecycle issues
- UI container hooks: try registry pull before local build fallback

- session.rs: use OnceCell for remember_secret to prevent concurrent
requests on first boot from generating different HMAC secrets, which
caused CSRF token mismatch on every state-changing RPC call (app
install, start, stop all failed with "CSRF token missing or invalid")
- install.rs: write lnd.conf with Bitcoin RPC credentials before LND
container starts (prevents "bitcoin.mainnet must be specified" crash);
inject Bitcoin RPC auth into bitcoin-ui nginx.conf; add proper error
logging to UI container build/run steps; fix UI containers to use
--network=host (they proxy to localhost backend/bitcoin RPC)
- Tor: remove After=tor.service from archipelago-tor-helper.path to
break systemd ordering cycle that prevented Tor from starting on boot
- Seed screen: compact grid layout (2 cols mobile, 4 cols sm+) with
tighter padding to fit kiosk displays without scrolling
- Dockerfiles: remove nonexistent assets/ COPY from bitcoin-ui, fix
electrs-ui to COPY qrcode.js and EXPOSE 50002 (matches nginx.conf)
- image-versions.sh: add UI container image variables for registry
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- image-versions.sh: fix 15+ tag mismatches against actual registry
(bitcoin-knots:28.1→latest, lnd:v0.18.5→v0.18.4, grafana:11.4→10.2,
vaultwarden:1.32.5→1.30.0-alpine, nextcloud:29→28, etc.)
- .bashrc: add /sbin:/usr/sbin to PATH so reboot/shutdown work
- Tailscale: add Arch Atob node (100.113.33.31)

All container image references now pull from 80.71.235.15:3000/archipelago/
instead of Docker Hub and ghcr.io. image-versions.sh is the single source
of truth; all scripts use $*_IMAGE variables instead of hardcoded refs.
Files updated:
- scripts/image-versions.sh: central ARCHY_REGISTRY variable
- core/*/config.rs: registry whitelist includes app registry
- core/*/stacks.rs: Immich + Penpot stack images
- scripts/{first-boot,deploy-to-target,container-specs}.sh: use variables
- docker/*/Dockerfile: nginx base image from registry
- image-recipe/: ISO build, podman config, menu script
- scripts/{container-doctor,deploy-bitcoin-knots,fix-indeedhub,validate-app-manifest}.sh
