 # Changelog
 
+## v1.7.110-alpha (2026-07-21)
+
+- Pay by pointing your camera: the wallet has a new Scan button (on the wallet card and inside both the Send and Receive windows) that reads any payment QR code — Lightning invoices, Bitcoin addresses, Cashu tokens, and Fedimint invites — and takes you straight to the right send or redeem screen with everything filled in. It also understands the animated, multi-part QR codes some wallets show for long payloads. If your browser can't open a live camera preview (common when reaching the node over plain http), a "Take photo of QR" button snaps a picture with your phone's camera and reads the code from the photo instead.
+- The TV screen got a complete overhaul. A deep bug made the display freeze on the intro artwork on 4K TVs — that's fixed, and along the way: the interface now picks a comfortable, sharp size for big screens (a 4K TV gets a full desktop layout at double sharpness), the artwork behind every page shows again instead of a black void, switching between tabs animates smoothly, the built-in AI assistant stays in its dark theme, and the Cashu and Ark wallet icons no longer render as empty squares.
+- You can now choose how big the interface renders on your node's attached screen: Settings → Display offers Auto (recommended), Large UI, Balanced, and Native — changing it applies immediately.
+- The companion phone app can steer the TV again. Remote input from the phone was being silently ignored on kiosk displays; the remote-control relay now runs there like everywhere else.
+- The companion app is also ready to grant its built-in browser camera access, so the wallet scanner can work inside the app (ships with the next companion app build).
+- Zero-amount Lightning invoices can now be paid: the wallet asks you for the amount and sends it along, instead of failing on invoices that leave the amount up to the payer.
+- The Lightning setup guidance now reads the same everywhere: "Open a channel with Zeus Olympus node and start sending and receiving Lightning payments. Minimum 150,000 · maximum 1,500,000 on-chain sats required."
+- Installer images now bundle a color-emoji font, so emoji anywhere in the interface render properly on the TV screen.
+
+## v1.7.109-alpha (2026-07-21)
+
+- Meet Pine, your node's voice assistant: a new app in the App Store that gives your node ears and a voice — speech-to-text and text-to-speech engines that run entirely on your own hardware, ready to wire into Home Assistant for private, offline voice control. Install it like any other app; nothing you say leaves your node.
+- Your node can now program its MeshCore radio's RF settings — frequency, bandwidth, spreading factor, and coding rate — from Mesh → Device settings. Radios that were flashed with mismatched settings could hear that other radios exist but never decode their messages, and until now the only fix was a separate phone app. Set the values once and the node programs the radio automatically (it restarts once to apply); every radio on your mesh must use the same values to talk to each other.
+- The Device settings panel is tidier: values you can edit (name, region, channel) are no longer also shown as separate read-only rows.
+
+## v1.7.108-alpha (2026-07-20)
+
+- Your node connects to the private mesh far more reliably. Nodes rely on a public rendezvous point to find each other, and the only one available was unreachable from many home and office networks — leaving some nodes unable to join the mesh at all. There is now a second, always-reachable rendezvous point, and your node tries every one it knows, so it joins the mesh in seconds instead of being stranded.
+- Wi-Fi setup now heals itself on older nodes. Some nodes set up before a mid-year fix couldn't connect to a Wi-Fi network from the screen — it failed with a permissions error — because the piece that lets the node manage networking on your behalf was missing. Nodes now put that piece in place automatically on startup, so "scan, pick a network, type the password, connect" works without reinstalling.
+- Your node rejoins the mesh within seconds after an update. Applying an update briefly restarts the mesh service, and previously a node could sit disconnected from other nodes for up to five minutes before it retried.
+- The TV screen now fits your television. On a large or 4K TV the interface rendered tiny with no way to zoom on a keyboard-less screen; it now sizes itself to a comfortable, readable scale automatically (and small laptop panels are left unchanged).
+- More TV-screen polish: the built-in assistant shows its dark theme instead of bright white panels, the on-screen hint for switching between the kiosk and a terminal now points at the right keys, the welcome logo no longer occasionally renders as garbled characters, and an accidental tap of the power button no longer shuts the node down — hold it to power off on purpose.
+- Behind the scenes: fixed the installer image build so it no longer stops on a component that was removed from the product, and so it correctly includes the private relay it was meant to bundle.
+
+## v1.7.106-alpha (2026-07-20)
+
+- Nodes on the same network now find each other directly. Your node announces itself on your local network and connects straight to other Archipelago nodes nearby, instead of every connection having to be introduced by a public rendezvous server out on the internet. Peers in the same home or office stay connected to each other even when that server is unreachable, and they reach each other faster.
+- On a phone, the peer files screen tells you how you're connected again. The badge showing whether a peer's files are arriving over the fast mesh or over Tor was only visible on desktop — on narrow screens it disappeared entirely. It now appears next to the peer name on mobile too.
+- Your node's mesh settings can no longer be written in a way that breaks the mesh. The configuration file used to be assembled as free-form text, where one wrong setting would stop the mesh service from starting and quietly drop your node off the network. It's now generated from a checked description of the file, with tests that verify the exact output.
+- When your node has trouble reaching another node, the logs now record the real reason instead of a generic summary. A failure to open a peer's files previously logged only "Failed to connect to peer" and threw away the actual cause, which made these problems very hard to diagnose. Nothing changes on screen, and no internal detail is exposed.
+- Behind the scenes: the installer image now builds its mesh component at a fixed, known version instead of whatever upstream had published that day, so two images built from the same source are identical.
+
 ## v1.7.105-alpha (2026-07-20)
 
 - Fixed a failure loop where a node that lost power or was moved could get stuck on a blank "can't reach your node" screen forever: startup recovery no longer spends minutes retrying containers that no longer exist, and a genuinely large recovery is no longer cut off half-way and forced to start over. The node now reaches its login screen even after the messiest shutdown.

+# Handoff — 2026-07-20 — peer-files diagnosis, FIPS 0.4.1, mobile transport pill
+
+Written for a fresh session that will **cut the OTA release and build the ISO**.
+Everything below is already committed and pushed to `gitea-ai/main`. Last release
+was `v1.7.105-alpha` (`e2f83c01`); the next one should be **`v1.7.106-alpha`**.
+
+---
+
+## 1. What this release carries (3 commits on top of v1.7.105-alpha)
+
+| Commit | What | User-visible? |
+|---|---|---|
+| `9e3ac9ba` | Show the FIPS/Tor transport pill on **mobile** peer files | Yes |
+| `3ab7fb52` | Log the full anyhow error chain on RPC failures | No (diagnostics) |
+| `5fd0d6c3` | Generate `fips.yaml` from typed structs + enable **mDNS LAN discovery** | Indirectly |
+
+### `9e3ac9ba` — mobile transport pill
+`PeerFiles.vue:15` wraps the peer title in `hidden md:block` (the global header
+carries the name on mobile), and the transport pill was nested inside it — so it
+vanished below 768px. Added a separate `md:hidden` pill next to the peer icon.
+Frontend was rebuilt and the class verified present in the emitted bundle.
+
+Caveats worth knowing (pre-existing, not introduced here):
+- On this code path the backend only ever emits `fips` or `tor`, so the `mesh`
+  and `lan` branches in `transportPill` (`PeerFiles.vue:609-627`) are dead.
+- For **received** mesh messages, `mesh/mod.rs:1519-1533` falls back to a
+  hardcoded `"tor"` when the transport is unknown — that pill can genuinely lie.
+  The peer-files pill does not.
+
+### `3ab7fb52` — full error chain in logs
+`api/rpc/mod.rs:441` logged only the outermost anyhow context, so every
+peer-files failure read exactly `RPC error on content.browse-peer: Failed to
+connect to peer` with the real cause discarded. Now `{:#}`. The client-facing
+message still goes through `sanitize_error_message(&e.to_string())` (`{}`), so
+no internal detail leaks. **This fix applies to every RPC method, not just
+browse-peer.**
+
+### `5fd0d6c3` — typed FIPS config + mDNS
+`fips/config.rs` built `/etc/fips/fips.yaml` by `format!`-ing a string literal.
+Upstream's config structs are `#[serde(deny_unknown_fields)]`, so a wrong key
+does not degrade — **the daemon refuses to start and the node leaves the mesh**.
+Now a typed serde struct tree, verified field-by-field against jmcorgan/fips
+**v0.4.1**, with 4 tests: exact-output snapshot, determinism, mDNS key path, and
+the pre-existing schema test. All pass.
+
+Also enables `node.discovery.lan.enabled` (mDNS/DNS-SD, new upstream in v0.4.0)
+so co-located nodes peer directly instead of depending on the public anchor.
+
+> ⚠️ **Expected one-time behaviour on first boot after this lands:** the startup
+> drift check at `server.rs:864` compares the freshly rendered config against
+> what's on disk. The render differs now, so it reinstalls the config and
+> restarts the FIPS daemon **once**. This is the intended self-healing path and
+> settles immediately. Do not mistake it for a regression.
+
+Emitted unconditionally rather than version-gated: v0.3.0's `DiscoveryConfig`
+has no `lan` field **and** no `deny_unknown_fields`, so v0.3.0 daemons ignore it
+harmlessly (verified against the v0.3.0 source). It self-activates on upgrade.
+
+---
+
+## 2. FIPS 0.4.1 — validated, but the fleet is NOT rolled
+
+Fleet was on FIPS **0.3.0 / 0.3.0-dev** (2026-05-11). Upstream is **v0.4.1**
+(2026-07-19). Verified before touching anything:
+
+- **Wire-compatible** 0.3.0 → 0.4.0 → 0.4.1. Rolling upgrade, any order, no flag day.
+- **Config forward-compatible** — every key we emit exists in 0.4.1.
+- **Asset names match** what `fips/update.rs` expects (`fips_<ver>_<arch>.deb` +
+  `checksums-linux.txt`), so the in-product updater should work.
+
+### Upgraded so far (2 of N)
+| Node | Before | After | Result |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| OptiPlex `.198` / `100.114.134.21` | `0.3.0-dev-1` | **0.4.1** | ✅ anchor connected, `is_parent: true`, tree `depth: 4` |
+| thinkpad (this machine) | `0.3.0` | **0.4.1** | ✅ service active, but still islanded (see §4) |
+
+The OptiPlex was still running the **old string-rendered config** and 0.4.1
+accepted it — empirical confirmation of the compat analysis, not just desk work.
+
+### Upgrade recipe (nodes cannot reach GitHub — sideload)
+```bash
+# 1. On a host with GitHub access:
+curl -sL -o fips_0.4.1_amd64.deb \
+  https://github.com/jmcorgan/fips/releases/download/v0.4.1/fips_0.4.1_amd64.deb
+curl -sL -o checksums-linux.txt \
+  https://github.com/jmcorgan/fips/releases/download/v0.4.1/checksums-linux.txt
+sha256sum fips_0.4.1_amd64.deb   # must match checksums-linux.txt
+# expected: 9befcc0990c7e08742b5a88f75d753a1088134b20525156688d559a317334ded
+
+# 2. Sideload:
+scp fips_0.4.1_amd64.deb archipelago@<node>:/tmp/
+
+# 3. On the node — the same command update.rs uses:
+sudo -n systemd-run --collect --wait --quiet --pipe -- \
+  env DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive dpkg --force-confold --force-downgrade -i \
+  /tmp/fips_0.4.1_amd64.deb
+
+# 4. Restart the ACTIVE unit — it is archipelago-fips.service,
+#    NOT fips.service (which is inactive on these nodes):
+sudo -n systemctl restart archipelago-fips.service
+
+# 5. Verify:
+fipsctl --version
+sudo -n fipsctl show links   # expect anchor 185.18.221.160:8443 connected
+sudo -n fipsctl show tree    # expect is_root: false, depth > 0
+```
+
+### ISO implication (important)
+`image-recipe/build/auto-installer/Dockerfile.rootfs:23` builds FIPS from
+**unpinned upstream main** (`git clone --depth 1`, no rev/tag/checksum, amd64
+only). So a freshly built ISO will pick up whatever main is that day — probably
+≥0.4.1, but it is not deterministic. Pinning is an open item in
+`docs/1.8.0-RELEASE-HARDENING-PLAN.md:319-322`. **Consider pinning to v0.4.1
+before building the release ISO** so the shipped version is knowable.
+
+---
+
+## 3. The original bug — peer cloud files not loading
+
+**Status: root-caused for the thinkpad; NOT fully explained.** Being explicit
+because it would be easy to read this as closed.
+
+What is established:
+- FIPS was fully down on the thinkpad: `fipsctl show peers` → `[]`, `show links`
+  → `[]`, `show tree` → `is_root: true, depth 0`. An island.
+- Cause is **network egress**, not FIPS config: the thinkpad cannot reach the
+  public anchor `185.18.221.160` (`fips.v0l.io`) **at all** — 100% packet loss on
+  ICMP, 443/8443/8668 all time out. `show transports` showed
+  `packets_sent: 760, packets_recv: 0` on both UDP and TCP.
+- Local firewall is **not** the cause (nft/iptables policy `accept`; only stock
+  Tailscale anti-spoof DROPs).
+- The OptiPlex, on the same `/24`, reaches the anchor fine → it's the thinkpad's
+  WiFi segment (`wlp3s0`), which also blocks L2 to `.198` (`ip neigh` → `FAILED`).
+- With no FIPS tree, everything falls back to Tor. Every peer in
+  `federation/nodes.json` reads `last_transport: "tor"`, never `"fips"`.
+- **Tor itself is healthy**: fetched the OptiPlex's `/content` over Tor 3×,
+  HTTP 200 in 4.1–8.5s — well inside the 30s budget at `content.rs:349`.
+
+What is **not** established: why three specific `content.browse-peer` calls
+failed today (05:25, 16:37, 16:43 UTC). Tor tested healthy and was never
+reproduced. Two hypotheses were tested and **disproved**: the Tor fallback logic
+is correct (FIPS-unreachable returns `None` and falls through in Auto mode), and
+the legs get independent timeouts (Tor gets a fresh 30s). Best remaining guess is
+cold-circuit timeouts on first fetch after idle — **a guess, not a finding.**
+`3ab7fb52` means the next occurrence will log the actual cause.
+
+### Corrections to earlier claims in this session
+- "Point FIPS at the Tailscale IP" was **wrong**. FIPS routes by npub; the
+  `ip:port` in `fipsctl connect` is only an underlay endpoint hint.
+- "The public anchor may be dead fleet-wide" was **wrong**. Its peer is healthy
+  (`delivery_ratio` 1.0 both directions, bloom filter syncing). The
+  `bytes_recv: 0` link counters are simply uninstrumented in 0.3.0.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Open items — decisions NOT taken
+
+1. **Second FIPS anchor (user asked for this; not built).** Needs a host running
+   FIPS that is reachable from the restricted WiFi. Candidate found: OVH
+   **`146.59.87.168`** — pings fine from the thinkpad and general egress works
+   (github 200), while the upstream anchor fails even ICMP there. But it does not
+   run FIPS yet, so this means **installing FIPS on the box that hosts Gitea** —
+   a production change, deliberately not made unprompted. Code side is easy after:
+   `fips/anchors.rs:47-50` is a single hardcoded anchor that should become a list
+   (`default_public_anchor()` → `default_public_anchors() -> Vec<SeedAnchor>`).
+2. **Fleet rollout of FIPS 0.4.1** — only 2 nodes done. `.228`
+   (`100.64.204.114`) has been **offline ~20h** and could not be included.
+3. **Deploying the archipelago binary** carrying `5fd0d6c3` — no node has it yet,
+   so mDNS is not actually live anywhere. That is what this OTA is for.
+4. **mDNS caveat:** on the thinkpad's WiFi, multicast may also be blocked, so
+   mDNS may not rescue that particular node even after the OTA. It will help
+   co-located nodes on sane networks.
+5. **Pin FIPS in the ISO build** (see §2) — recommended before the release ISO.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Release ritual (from prior sessions — follow exactly)
+
+Working tree at handoff had pre-existing unrelated dirt: `core/Cargo.lock`,

+### ISO
+```bash
+UNBUNDLED=1 bash image-recipe/build-debian-iso.sh
+```
+ISO builds are **always unbundled** — the default env silently builds the wrong
+full-bundle variant. Only filebrowser + fmcd are baked in. Verify the output
+filename contains `unbundled` and is ≈2.4G. The ISO's frontend source is
+`/opt/archipelago/web-ui` — rsync dist there first and verify **inside** the ISO.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Node access quick reference
+
+- **thinkpad (`.116`) is the local machine** — do not SSH to it; read
+  `journalctl -u archipelago` and `/var/lib/archipelago/**` directly.
+- **OptiPlex `.198`** = Tailscale `archipelago-5` / `100.114.134.21`, user
+  `archipelago`. Its LAN IP is unreachable from the thinkpad — use Tailscale.
+- `.228` = `archipelago-2` / `100.64.204.114` — **offline as of 2026-07-20**, and
+  it is in real use; don't touch uninvited.
+- `archipelago-1` (`100.82.34.38`) is a Ryzen AI Max desktop, **not** the OptiPlex.
+- Nodes have no `sqlite3` — use `sudo -n python3` to read the JSON stores.
+- `fipsctl` needs `sudo -n` (socket is `root:fips` 0660).
+- **Never run `archipelago --version` on fleet nodes** (deployed binaries predate #74).

It also understands the animated, multi-part QR codes some wallets show for long payloads. If your browser can't open a live camera preview (common when reaching the node over plain http), a "Take photo of QR" button snaps a picture with your phone's camera and reads the code from the photo instead.</p>
+                  <p>The TV screen got a complete overhaul. A deep bug made the display freeze on the intro artwork on 4K TVs — that's fixed, and along the way: the interface now picks a comfortable, sharp size for big screens (a 4K TV gets a full desktop layout at double sharpness), the artwork behind every page shows again instead of a black void, switching between tabs animates smoothly, the built-in AI assistant stays in its dark theme, and the Cashu and Ark wallet icons no longer render as empty squares.</p>
+                  <p>You can now choose how big the interface renders on your node's attached screen: Settings → Display offers Auto (recommended), Large UI, Balanced, and Native — changing it applies immediately.</p>

+                  <p>Zero-amount Lightning invoices can now be paid: the wallet asks you for the amount and sends it along, instead of failing on invoices that leave the amount up to the payer.</p>
+                  <p>The Lightning setup guidance now reads the same everywhere: "Open a channel with Zeus Olympus node and start sending and receiving Lightning payments. Minimum 150,000 · maximum 1,500,000 on-chain sats required."</p>

Install it like any other app; nothing you say leaves your node.</p>

Radios that were flashed with mismatched settings could hear that other radios exist but never decode their messages, and until now the only fix was a separate phone app. Set the values once and the node programs the radio automatically (it restarts once to apply); every radio on your mesh must use the same values to talk to each other.</p>

+                  <p>Your node connects to the private mesh far more reliably. Nodes rely on a public rendezvous point to find each other, and the only one available was unreachable from many home and office networks — leaving some nodes unable to join the mesh at all. There is now a second, always-reachable rendezvous point, and your node tries every one it knows, so it joins the mesh in seconds instead of being stranded.</p>
+                  <p>Wi-Fi setup now heals itself on older nodes. Some nodes set up before a mid-year fix couldn't connect to a Wi-Fi network from the screen — it failed with a permissions error — because the piece that lets the node manage networking on your behalf was missing. Nodes now put that piece in place automatically on startup, so "scan, pick a network, type the password, connect" works without reinstalling.</p>
+                  <p>Your node rejoins the mesh within seconds after an update. Applying an update briefly restarts the mesh service, and previously a node could sit disconnected from other nodes for up to five minutes before it retried.</p>
+                  <p>The TV screen now fits your television. On a large or 4K TV the interface rendered tiny with no way to zoom on a keyboard-less screen; it now sizes itself to a comfortable, readable scale automatically (and small laptop panels are left unchanged).</p>
+                  <p>More TV-screen polish: the built-in assistant shows its dark theme instead of bright white panels, the on-screen hint for switching between the kiosk and a terminal now points at the right keys, the welcome logo no longer occasionally renders as garbled characters, and an accidental tap of the power button no longer shuts the node down — hold it to power off on purpose.</p>
+                  <p>Behind the scenes: fixed the installer image build so it no longer stops on a component that was removed from the product, and so it correctly includes the private relay it was meant to bundle.</p>

Your node announces itself on your local network and connects straight to other Archipelago nodes nearby, instead of every connection having to be introduced by a public rendezvous server out on the internet. Peers in the same home or office stay connected to each other even when that server is unreachable, and they reach each other faster.</p>
+                  <p>On a phone, the peer files screen tells you how you're connected again. The badge showing whether a peer's files are arriving over the fast mesh or over Tor was only visible on desktop — on narrow screens it disappeared entirely. It now appears next to the peer name on mobile too.</p>
+                  <p>Your node's mesh settings can no longer be written in a way that breaks the mesh. The configuration file used to be assembled as free-form text, where one wrong setting would stop the mesh service from starting and quietly drop your node off the network. It's now generated from a checked description of the file, with tests that verify the exact output.</p>
+                  <p>When your node has trouble reaching another node, the logs now record the real reason instead of a generic summary. A failure to open a peer's files previously logged only "Failed to connect to peer" and threw away the actual cause, which made these problems very hard to diagnose. Nothing changes on screen, and no internal detail is exposed.</p>
+                  <p>Behind the scenes: the installer image now builds its mesh component at a fixed, known version instead of whatever upstream had published that day, so two images built from the same source are identical.</p>

It also understands the animated, multi-part QR codes some wallets show for long payloads. If your browser can't open a live camera preview (common when reaching the node over plain http), a \"Take photo of QR\" button snaps a picture with your phone's camera and reads the code from the photo instead.",
