The kiosk window was sized in physical pixels, but Chromium interprets
--window-size in DIPs: with any device-scale > 1 the window painted
scale-times larger than the panel, and with no window manager in the
kiosk X session --kiosk/--start-fullscreen could not snap it back. On a
4K TV at scale 3 that meant an 11520x6480 window — 9x the panel area —
which blew the compositor tile-memory budget ("tile memory limits
exceeded, some content may not draw") and froze the screen on the last
painted frame; smaller scales cropped content off the right/bottom.
- Size the window in DIPs (panel / scale) so DIPs x scale = the panel.
- Panels >=2560 wide now target a 1920-wide layout (4K -> scale 2.0,
validated on the Framework's 72" 4K TV: spacious desktop layout at 2x
sharpness); smaller panels keep the 1280 target (1080p TV -> 1.5).
- Optional ARCHIPELAGO_KIOSK_MAX_WIDTH cap: drop to the best <=N-wide
xrandr mode for weak hardware (TV upscales instead of us rasterizing).
- Source /etc/archipelago/kiosk-display.conf so the upcoming Settings
display-resolution picker can manage these knobs per node.

Three fresh-install kiosk issues found on a Framework node:
- MOTD said 'Ctrl+Alt+F7 for kiosk' / 'F1 for terminal', but the kiosk's
Xorg runs on vt1 — so F7 was an empty black VT (the reported black screen
and the failed 'return to kiosk'). Corrected: kiosk=F1, terminal=F2.
- The UTF-8 block-glyph logo corrupted intermittently because returning from
the kiosk can leave the console VT out of UTF-8 mode; force it with ESC%G.
- A short power-button press shut the node down instantly. Ignore the short
press, keep long-press poweroff, so accidental brushes don't kill the node.

AIUI themes via @media (prefers-color-scheme) and falls back to its light
variant (white panels) when the browser reports no preference — which the
minimal kiosk X session does, so AIUI came up light instead of its designed
dark. The main UI hardcodes dark and is unaffected. Push two independent
dark signals on the kiosk Chromium: GTK_THEME=Adwaita:dark (version-
independent, can never force light) and --blink-settings=preferredColorScheme=0
(0 = kDark in modern Chromium). Needs on-device kiosk verification.

v1.7.104 shipped ISOs whose units crash-looped (nostr-relay 3s loop,
archipelago-diag 203/EXEC) because build-time extraction failures were mere
warnings and the cached rootfs never tracked its recipe:
- hash the rootfs-defining region of the build script and rebuild when it
changes (stale cache shipped ISOs without wpasupplicant/iw/rfkill)
- refuse to build without nvpn / nostr-rs-relay unless
ALLOW_MISSING_VPN_BINARIES=1
- ConditionPathExists on nostr-relay/nostr-vpn/diag units so a stripped
image skips them instead of crash-looping
- post-install test: every enabled archipelago*/nostr* unit must have an
existing ExecStart payload

.198 crash-looped 236x on a truncated OTA binary with a good backup
sitting in update-backup/ — verify_pending_update() can't help when
the new binary never runs. New scripts/ota-crash-guard.sh runs as
root from ExecStartPre: while the post-OTA pending-verify marker
exists it counts start attempts, and after 5 failures restores the
backup binary (atomic rename), replaces the marker with an
update-rolled-back.json tombstone, and lets the service come back
on the previous version.
Wiring: fresh ISOs get the ExecStartPre line in the unit file;
existing nodes get a drop-in installed by apply_update's runtime
component step on their next OTA. '+-' prefix so a missing or
failing guard can never block the service.

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.

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".

The unit's ExecStartPre baked the first hostname -I token into
host-ip.env, which config.rs prefers over its own detection — once a
VPN/bridge interface existed (netbird's wg tunnel), every host_ip
consumer (install configs, VPN, mint URLs) got the tunnel IP. Read the
main-table default route's src address instead, falling back to
hostname -I on routeless hosts.

484.kitchen, Arch Presentation, Call the Operator, Next Web News

ThinkPad X250 (Broadwell HD 5500) internal panels show horizontal corruption

live systems with i915.enable_ips=0 enable_psr=0 enable_fbc=0 (no-ops off

Kiosk (backgrounds + FIPS mismatch, one root cause each):
- kiosk service now also waits for the web-ui asset swap (probes a large
bg asset, bounded 60s) — it launched mid-rsync and CSS background 404s
are never refetched, hence blank backgrounds on first boot
- FipsNetworkCard polls every 15s instead of fetching once on mount
- PWA updates auto-apply on the kiosk (localStorage kiosk flag) — an
unattended kiosk could never click 'Update Now' and ran stale bundles
LND App Store:
- catalog icon pointed at lnd.svg which doesn't exist (lnd.png does);
store card also retries the sibling extension before the placeholder
- image pulls retry once after fast transient failures (<30s) — fresh
first-boot networks reset connections; slow failures aren't retried
so the UI never waits longer than before
Mesh detection:
- mesh.status now always reports device_present + detected_devices
(previously only when the service wasn't running, so the UI couldn't
tell 'no radio' from 'radio present, session connecting')
- Mesh page shows 'Mesh device detected' badge + 'Device detected —
connecting' status for present-but-not-connected radios
- the 99-mesh-radio.rules udev rule was never staged into the ISO tree
(installer searched for it and found nothing) — ship it at the media
root and install it from install-to-disk.sh too

Conflict resolution: keep the branch's CPUQuota=200% (75% was the proven
cause of choppy HDMI audio — the file's own comment says so; the 75% on main
was an accidental regression bundled into an unrelated UI commit) and keep
main's newer MemoryMax=2800M/MemoryHigh=2200M tuning.

Fixes from real fresh-install feedback (Framework node .81) + its log bundle:
Backend:
- websocket: subscribe before initial snapshot — broadcasts in the gap were
silently lost, stranding clients on stale state until a hard refresh
(the "everything needs ctrl-r" bug: My Apps stuck Loading, App Store
stuck Checking, containers-scanned never arriving)
- crash recovery: check the crash marker BEFORE writing our own PID —
recovery had never run on any node (always saw its own PID and skipped);
PID-reuse guard via /proc cmdline
- boot status: pending-boot-starts registry (recovery, stack recovery,
reconciler, adoption) — scanner overlays queued-but-down apps as
Restarting instead of Stopped after a reboot; scanner-authored
Restarting resolves immediately on a settled scan (no transitional wedge)
- install deps: bounded wait (36x5s) when a dependency is installed but
still starting ("Waiting for Bitcoin to start…") instead of instant
rejection; dependency-gate rejections remove the optimistic entry (no
phantom Stopped tile) and surface as a notification
- seed backup: auth.setup persists the onboarding mnemonic as the
encrypted seed backup (reveal previously failed on EVERY node — nothing
ever wrote master_seed.enc); seed.restore stashes too; error sanitizer
lets seed/2FA errors through instead of "Check server logs"
- lnd: bitcoind.rpchost resolved from the running Bitcoin variant
(hardcoded bitcoin-knots broke Core nodes); manifest uses derived_env
- bitcoin status: clean human message for connection-reset/startup; raw
URLs + os-error chains no longer reach the app card
- fedimint-clientd: chown /var/lib/archipelago/fmcd to 1000:1000 (root-
created dir crash-looped the rootless container, EACCES) — first-boot
script + pre-start self-heal
- log volume (>1GB/day on a day-old node): journald caps drop-in (ISO +
bootstrap self-heal), bitcoind -printtoconsole=0 everywhere (90% of the
journal was IBD UpdateTip spam), tracing default debug→info
Frontend:
- Login: Enter advances to confirm field then submits; submit always
clickable with inline errors (was silently disabled on mismatch);
Restart Onboarding needs a confirming second click (the mismatch →
"onboarding restarted" trap)
- sync store: 30s state reconciliation + refetch on re-entrant connect;
20s containers-scanned escape hatch so Checking can never show forever;
fresh empty node reaches the real "no apps yet" state
- intro video: CRF20 re-encode (SSIM 0.988) + faststart — moov was at EOF
so playback needed the full 15MB first (the intro lag)
- backgrounds: 10 heaviest JPEGs → WebP q90 (9.4MB→6.6MB); 7 stayed JPEG
(WebP larger on noisy sources)
- Web5ConnectedNodes: drop unused template ref that failed vue-tsc -b
ISO/kiosk:
- nginx: /assets/ 404s no longer cached immutable for a year; HTTPS block
gained the missing /assets/ location (served index.html as images)
- kiosk: launcher/service spliced from configs/ at ISO build (stale
heredoc force-disabled GPU); MemoryHigh/Max 1200/1500→2200/2800M (kiosk
rode the reclaim throttle = the lag); firmware-intel-graphics +
firmware-amd-graphics (trixie split DMC blobs out of misc-nonfree)
Verified: cargo test 898/898 green, npm run build green with dist
contents confirmed (webp refs, lnd.png, faststart video, new strings).

Routes ALSA's "default" device through PulseAudio/PipeWire. Was a manual,
untracked fix living only on archy-x250-exp — a reprovision or fresh image
would silently lose it, same failure mode that already bit the GPU-flags
and CPUQuota fixes. Wired into deploy-to-target.sh (both the primary --live
path and the .198/.253 secondary-copy path) and deploy-tailscale.sh, mirroring
the existing 99-mesh-radio.rules udev sync pattern (diff-check, copy if changed).

Both had regressed back to the pre-2026-06-28-incident state: GPU_FLAGS used
--enable-gpu-rasterization on any node with a GPU, and CPUQuota was 75%.
On archy-x250-exp (Intel HD 5500 under X11) this spins a dedicated GPU
process at 55-92% CPU (falls back to software compositing anyway), and the
75% cgroup quota throttled the kiosk unit ~81% of the time (nr_throttled
4856/6005) — the exact CPU-starvation signature documented as the choppy-
audio root cause. Restores the validated fix: --in-process-gpu,
--num-raster-threads=1, GpuRasterization disabled via --disable-features,
CPUQuota=200%. Verified on archy-x250-exp: no separate gpu-process, throttling
dropped to ~3% (nr_throttled 14/503).

The launcher's sudo -u archipelago invocation set DISPLAY/HOME but not
XDG_RUNTIME_DIR, so Chromium's audio backend couldn't find the PipeWire-Pulse
socket at /run/user/<uid>/pulse/native. It silently fell back to raw ALSA
"default", which also failed ("Connection refused"), producing no HDMI audio
at all with no visible error since --noerrdialogs suppresses it.

configure_display picked whichever mode was already "active" on the HDMI
output, so if X ever booted cloned to the laptop panel's resolution it
would keep re-confirming that wrong mode forever instead of self-healing
to the display's native mode.
The kiosk chromium pinned ~92% of a core (software-compositing spin from
--enable-gpu-rasterization on a GPU-less/headless node), saturating the machine
and starving the backend + container builds — it caused the .198 receive timeout
and the deploy storms.
- archipelago-kiosk.service: CPUQuota=75% + MemoryMax/High + Delegate, so a
runaway kiosk can never take the whole node down.
- archipelago-kiosk-launcher.sh: detect /dev/dri — use GPU rasterization only
when a GPU exists, else --disable-gpu (avoids the headless spin).
- bootstrap::ensure_kiosk_hardened: OTA self-heal that installs the updated
unit+launcher on already-deployed nodes, daemon-reloads, and only try-restarts
a *running* kiosk (never re-enables an operator-disabled one).
cargo check clean; launcher bash -n clean; unit syntax valid.

On production nodes /var/lib/archipelago (the app data dir AND podman's
graphroot=/var/lib/archipelago/containers/storage) is a separate
device-mapper volume. archipelago.service ordered only After=network-online
.target, so on cold boots it (and its ExecStartPre) could start BEFORE
var-lib-archipelago.mount, write to the bare mountpoint on rootfs, fail every
podman call, exit, and be restarted every 5s until the volume mounted — the
"~20x [FAILED] Failed to start over ~5min" boot flap. Proven live on .198:
"var-lib-archipelago.mount: Directory /var/lib/archipelago to mount over is
not empty, mounting anyway" — the service had written there pre-mount.
Fix: RequiresMountsFor=/var/lib/archipelago (adds Requires= + After= on the
mount unit).
- image-recipe/configs/archipelago.service: ships the directive on fresh ISOs.
- bootstrap::ensure_archipelago_mount_ordering(): self-heals already-deployed
nodes' installed unit + daemon-reload (boot-ordering only, effective next
reboot; never restarts the running service). Idempotent; harmless on rootfs
installs (maps to the always-mounted root).
Verified on .198: after applying, systemctl shows After=var-lib-archipelago
.mount and systemd-analyze verify is clean.

Fedimint UI HTML/CSS reference absolute /assets/* paths; under /app/fedimint/
those hit the main SPA, not the fedimint container, so the UI renders
unstyled. Add the proven sub_filter asset-rewrite pattern (as indeedhub/
botfights use) to the /app/fedimint/ block in the nginx template + https
snippet (also rewrites url(...) for the CSS background image). Bootstrap
self-heal for already-deployed nodes is the documented resume point.

Hotfix: archipelago.service ExecStartPre now mkdirs /run/containers and
/var/lib/containers before the unit's mount-namespace setup tries to bind
them. Without this, fresh nodes that don't have /run/containers (e.g.
nodes provisioned without a prior podman session) fail at the namespace
step with:
Failed to set up mount namespacing: /run/containers: No such file or directory
Failed at step NAMESPACE spawning /bin/bash: No such file or directory
Existing nodes don't pick up systemd unit changes via OTA — they need a
one-time `systemctl edit archipelago` adding the same mkdir. ISO installs
from this version forward have the fix baked in.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The backend runs as `archipelago` and calls `install_log()` to append
audit lines to the install log on every install / update / remove /
start / stop / restart. Target path was /var/log/archipelago-container-installs.log,
which does not exist and cannot be created by the service because
/var/log/ is root-owned. OpenOptions errors were silently swallowed,
so the log was never written on any node.
Ship a tmpfiles.d rule that pre-creates /var/log/archipelago/ and
container-installs.log with archipelago:archipelago ownership. Move
the const path to match, keeping logs inside the directory logrotate
already rotates (image-recipe/configs/logrotate.conf). Install the
rule from both the ISO build and self-update, and apply it
immediately on self-update so existing nodes get a working log
without needing a reboot.
Verified on .228: file created, backend user can write, backend
binary rebuilt with new const.
Adds Delegate=memory pids cpu io to the archipelago.service unit.
Context: the service runs as User=archipelago under system.slice with
rootless podman. When podman creates transient libpod-*.scope units for
containers under user.slice, systemd needs the caller to hold
CAP_SYS_ADMIN on the target cgroup subtree \u2014 which happens iff
Delegate= lists the controllers we want to set. Without Delegate, any
future code path that goes through the podman CLI (runtime.rs) instead
of the libpod HTTP API (podman_client.rs) would hit MemoryMax
rejections that have exactly the same symptom as the bug I just fixed
in parse_memory_limit but with a completely different root cause.
Belt-and-braces: current production path uses PodmanClient and was
fixed in the preceding commit. But the DockerRuntime CLI path in
runtime.rs:262-268 (cmd.arg("--memory")) is still reachable via
AutoRuntime fallback on hosts without podman, and future rust
orchestrator code may legitimately need cgroup delegation. This
directive is no-op harmful on hosts that already delegate upstream
(systemd gracefully handles duplicate/nested delegation).
BootReconciler (in-process, 30s interval, spawned from main.rs as of
Step 6 commit 48f08aa3) fully replaces the timer-driven bash
reconciliation path. Delete the systemd unit + timer and their
ISO-builder touchpoints.
Removed:
- image-recipe/configs/archipelago-reconcile.service
- image-recipe/configs/archipelago-reconcile.timer
- image-recipe/build-auto-installer-iso.sh L412-413 (COPY unit+timer)
- image-recipe/build-auto-installer-iso.sh L449 (systemctl enable)
- image-recipe/build-auto-installer-iso.sh L542-543 (cp to WORK_DIR)
Kept (intentionally):
- scripts/reconcile-containers.sh
- scripts/container-specs.sh
Reason: core/archipelago/src/api/rpc/package/update.rs still invokes
reconcile-containers.sh at two sites (OTA update + rollback paths).
Porting those call sites to ContainerOrchestrator::upgrade() requires
manifests for every container update.rs might touch — that scope
belongs in Step 8b. Until then the script stays on disk, just no
longer runs on a periodic timer.
No Rust code changes. cargo check -p archipelago clean, 6 pre-existing
warnings. Skipped full ISO rebuild validation per user decision —
edits are 5 textual deletions with zero behavioral ambiguity; Step 9
live hot-swap on .228 will catch any regression.
Install flow
- api/rpc/package/install.rs: always append the literal image URL as a
last-resort pull candidate in do_pull_image, so images not carried by
any configured mirror (docker.io/bitcoin/bitcoin:28.4) still install
instead of masquerading as a generic pull failure across every mirror.
- api/rpc/package/install.rs: write_bitcoin_conf now skips on any stat
error, not just "file exists". Once bitcoin-knots' first-boot chowns
/var/lib/archipelago/bitcoin into the container's user namespace (700
perms, UID 100100/100101), the archipelago daemon can't even traverse
in — try_exists returns Err which unwrap_or(false) treated as "not
present" and drove a doomed write. Now errors out of the directory
traversal are treated as "conf already owned by container user" and
the write is skipped. Mirrors the lnd.conf pattern.
- api/rpc/package/install.rs: drop the hardcoded `prune=550` from the
conf default. Operators with multi-TB drives shouldn't be silently
pruned; users who want a pruned node can set it in bitcoin.conf
themselves. Full archive is the only honest default.
- api/rpc/package/config.rs: bitcoin-core now passes explicit
-server/-rpcbind/-rpcallowip/-rpcport/-printtoconsole/-datadir CLI
args. Vanilla bitcoin/bitcoin:28.4 has no entrypoint wrapper and
reads conf + argv only; without these the RPC listens on 127.0.0.1
inside the container and rootlessport can't reach it, so the
bitcoin-ui companion gets 502 on every /bitcoin-rpc/ call.
Bitcoin Knots keeps its own entrypoint-driven defaults.
- container/docker_packages.rs: split bitcoin-core out of the shared
AppMetadata arm. bitcoin-core now surfaces as "Bitcoin Core" with
bitcoin-core.svg and a Reference-implementation description; the
bitcoin + bitcoin-knots ids keep the Knots branding. Fixes the home
card showing "Bitcoin Knots" for a Core install.
Bitcoin node UI (docker/bitcoin-ui)
- index.html: impl name/tagline/logo now dynamic. applyImplBranding()
reads subversion from getnetworkinfo — /Satoshi:X/Knots:Y/ resolves
to Bitcoin Knots, plain /Satoshi:X/ resolves to Bitcoin Core. Both
get their own icon and subtitle. Settings modal replaced its
hardcoded Regtest/txindex=1/port-18443 placeholders with live values
from getblockchaininfo + getindexinfo + getzmqnotifications.
- index.html: new Storage info card (Full Archive · X GB /
Pruned · X GB from blockchainInfo.pruned + size_on_disk) visible on
the main dashboard, same level as Network. Settings modal mirrors it
with the prune height when applicable.
- Dockerfile + assets/: bitcoin-core.svg, bitcoin-knots.webp, and the
bg-network.jpg used by the dashboard are now COPY'd into the image
under /usr/share/nginx/html/assets. Previously the <img src> pointed
at paths that 404'd into the SPA fallback and the onerror handler
hid the broken logo silently.
Frontend
- appSession/appSessionConfig.ts: add bitcoin-core to APP_PORTS (8334),
HTTPS_PROXY_PATHS (/app/bitcoin-ui/), and APP_TITLES (Bitcoin Core).
Without these the AppSessionFrame showed "No URL found for
bitcoin-core" and the home/app-list title fell through to the raw id.
- settings/AccountInfoSection.vue: backfill What's New entries for
v1.7.31 through v1.7.37 that had been missed in earlier cuts.
Release plumbing
- releases/v1.7.37-alpha/: binary + frontend tarball.
- releases/manifest.json: v1.7.37-alpha, sha256/size refreshed.
- Cargo.toml / package.json: version bumps.

1. FIPS auto-activate at server startup only fires if fips_key already
exists on disk, which on a fresh install is never true until AFTER
onboarding. By the time the user completes seed-generate/restore,
archipelago has been running for minutes and the startup task has
long since exited. User still had to hit Activate.
Fix: call spawn_post_onboarding_fips_activate() from the tail of
handle_seed_generate and handle_seed_restore — the moment the
fips_key materialises, a detached task runs `fips::config::install`
+ `archipelago-fips.service activate`. Logged only, never blocks
the onboarding RPC.
2. Kiosk health-poll window was 30 × 2s (configs/ copy was 60 × 2s
but unused — the heredoc in build-auto-installer-iso.sh is what
actually lands on disk). On .198's slower hardware archipelago
/health wasn't ready within 60s, so Chromium launched against a
not-yet-running backend → blank window until manual reboot. Bumped
to 150 × 2s (5 min) + TimeoutStartSec=360. .253 was already well
within the window; this protects the slower box too. Standalone
configs/archipelago-kiosk.service updated in lockstep so the two
copies don't drift.

1. nostr-vpn still failing despite last mask attempt — confirmed in
the 6th ISO's rootfs.tar: the .service file was present but
not in multi-user.target.wants. Previous `systemctl mask` silently
no-oped because the real file was already there. Fixed properly
with explicit `rm -f` + `ln -sf /dev/null` for nostr-vpn,
archipelago-wg, and archipelago-wg-address — same /dev/null
symlink state that `mask` would produce on a clean install.
2. Kiosk didn't come up on first boot, only on reboot. Extended the
ExecStartPre health-poll from 30s → 120s (unbundled ISO takes
longer to settle on first boot: archipelago initializes state,
pulls FileBrowser, frontend settles), raised TimeoutStartSec to
180s, and added After=systemd-user-sessions.service +
After=network-online.target so X / Chromium aren't racing.
3. /init: line 29: can't create /root/etc/network/interfaces error
on installer boot — debootstrap --variant=minbase omits ifupdown
so the target has no /etc/network/ directory, and live-boot's
init tries to seed it. Non-fatal but noisy. Added ifupdown +
isc-dhcp-client to the debootstrap --include list.

Was seeing "upload failed: 413" on mesh attachment sends between
federated nodes — a ~7MB image becomes ~10MB base64 in the
typed_envelope wire and hit the 10m client_max_body_size on
/archipelago/, /content/, and /dwn/. Bumped those six locations
(two per server block, regular + HTTPS) to 256m so modern
attachments/blobs don't trip the proxy. /rpc/ stays at 1m —
internal JSON-RPC calls are small and don't need the headroom.
Applied to all 4 fleet nodes live; ISO source config updated so
fresh installs get the same limits.

Bakes the FIPS (Free Internetworking Peering System) mesh daemon into
the node stack, supervised by archipelago alongside Tor. Runs as a
system service, identity derives from the same BIP-39 master seed, and
user-triggered updates track upstream main.
Identity
seed.rs: new HKDF label archipelago/fips/secp256k1/v1 → dedicated
secp256k1 key, distinct from the Nostr-node key for crypto isolation
but still seed-recoverable
identity.rs: writes fips_key[.pub] to /data/identity on onboarding,
chmod 0600; fips_key_exists / load_fips_keys / fips_npub accessors
Transport
TransportKind::Fips=3 inserted between LAN and Tor (Tor bumps to 4)
→ router prefers FIPS over Tor for all peer traffic
PeerRecord gains fips_npub + last_fips fields (serde(default) for
backward-compat with older nodes)
transport/fips.rs: NodeTransport stub, reports unavailable until the
daemon is live so router falls through to Tor cleanly
Federation invites
FederatedNode and FederationInvite carry optional fips_npub
create_invite / accept_invite / peer-joined callback thread it end
to end; signature domain deliberately unchanged — FIPS Noise does
its own session auth, so the unsigned hint only affects path
selection
crate::fips
config.rs: renders /etc/fips/fips.yaml and sudo-installs key material
service.rs: systemctl status/activate/restart/mask wrappers
update.rs: GitHub API check against upstream main; apply stubbed
until per-commit .deb artefact source is decided
RPC + dashboard
fips.status / fips.check-update / fips.apply-update / fips.install /
fips.restart registered in dispatcher
HomeNetworkCard.vue shipped standalone (unmounted — place in Home.vue
when ready); shows state pill, version, FIPS npub, update button,
activate button when key is present but service is down
ISO + systemd
archipelago-fips.service: conditional on key presence, masked by
default — backend unmasks after onboarding writes the key
build-auto-installer-iso.sh: multi-stage Dockerfile builds the FIPS
.deb from jmcorgan/fips main (fail-loud), COPYs it into rootfs, apt
installs it so trixie resolves deps; unit copied + masked
Version bump: 1.3.5 → 1.4.0
Tests: 33 new/updated passing (seed, identity, transport, federation,
fips module, transport::fips).
Known gaps: fips.apply-update returns a clear stub error until
upstream publishes per-commit .deb artefacts; HomeNetworkCard is not
mounted in Home.vue by default.

Plumbs the BlobStore from blobs.rs into ApiHandler. The HMAC capability
key is derived from the node's Ed25519 signing key via a domain-separated
SHA-256 — rotating the identity rotates every outstanding cap (intentional
so a replaced node cannot honour old tokens).
New routes (added to nginx config in both server blocks):
- POST /api/blob — session-authenticated raw upload, returns
{cid, size, mime, filename, self_test_url}. The self_test_url is a
pre-signed cap pointing at the local node so the UI can verify the
round-trip without needing a peer pubkey.
- GET /blob/<cid>?cap=<hex>&exp=<epoch>&peer=<pubkey> — peer-facing,
HMAC-verified in constant time, expiry-checked, then streams bytes.
Mesh.vue gets a minimal "Attachment test (blob store)" section: file
picker → upload → cid display → "Verify round-trip" and "Open in new
tab" buttons. This validates Phase 3a end-to-end before we layer the
ContentRef typed envelope variant on top.

App catalog served from Gitea repos (app-catalog) with 35 apps.
Nodes fetch catalog dynamically — new apps appear without frontend
rebuild. Test app added and removed to verify pipeline.
Gitea manifest updated with internal_port/nginx_proxy for iframe.
Updated catalog.json, nginx configs, app session configs.
