 # Changelog

+## v1.7.77-alpha (2026-05-20)
+
+- Saleor first-use now exposes generated credentials through Archipelago instead of leaving users at an unexplained dashboard login: App Details shows copyable `admin@example.com` credentials, and My Apps/mobile icon launches show a pre-launch credentials modal.
+- Saleor installs now create or repair the `admin@example.com` staff account idempotently after sample data loads, use the correct dashboard mount path, and re-check stack containers after startup so stopped containers are caught.
+- NetBird embedded login now uses the upstream-compatible IdP signing-key behavior and sends ID tokens from the dashboard to the management API, fixing the post-signup `Unauthenticated` state while preserving the unified local proxy/logout routes.
+- Transient unnamed Podman helper containers created during app install tasks are hidden from My Apps, so generated names like `eager_keldysh` no longer appear as user applications.
+- Validation passed with catalog/release JSON checks, `npm run type-check`, and `cargo fmt --all --check --manifest-path core/Cargo.toml`; live checks on `100.114.134.21` confirmed Saleor dashboard/API availability, generated Saleor admin login, NetBird OAuth availability, and NetBird logout redirects.
+
+## v1.7.76-alpha (2026-05-20)
+
+- Saleor installs now use dashboard port `9010`, avoiding the existing Portainer `9000` binding on the test node while keeping API `8000`, Mailpit `8025`, and Jaeger `16686` unchanged.
+- Saleor's Valkey cache no longer bind-mounts `/var/lib/archipelago/saleor-cache`, and the dashboard container has the minimal rootless nginx capabilities it needs to chown cache files, bind port 80 inside the container, and drop workers to the nginx user.
+- NetBird's browser proxy now sends API, OAuth, relay, WebSocket, and management traffic through the stable host-published server port at `169.254.1.2:8086`, avoiding stale rootless Podman DNS/IPs after `netbird-server` restarts.
+- Mobile App Store category chips now stay visible above the tab bar, Discover is available on mobile, and category selection updates the page route/query so the selected category is actually shown.
+- Apps that require a real browser tab now open directly from the app icon tap instead of first entering an in-shell app-session route, including BTCPay, Grafana, Home Assistant, Vaultwarden, Nextcloud, Portainer, OnlyOffice, Tailscale, Uptime Kuma, Gitea, and Nginx Proxy Manager.
+- Validation passed with catalog JSON checks, `npm run type-check`, `cargo fmt --all --check --manifest-path core/Cargo.toml`, and `cargo check -p archipelago --manifest-path core/Cargo.toml`; live checks on `100.70.96.88` confirmed Saleor dashboard `9010`/API `8000` and NetBird API/OAuth routes survive `netbird-server` restart.
+
+## v1.7.75-alpha (2026-05-19)
+
+- Saleor is now published as a recommended commerce app with catalog metadata, icon, direct app-session launch on port `9000`, scanner metadata, image pins, and a full stack installer for dashboard, API, worker, PostgreSQL, Valkey, Mailpit, and Jaeger.
+- Existing NetBird installs are repaired more aggressively by rewriting unified-origin config, recreating the dashboard/proxy containers, restarting the server, preserving data, and handling exact `/api` and `/oauth2` routes plus dashboard logout redirects through the local proxy.
+- Desktop dashboard scrolling now hands focus back from the sidebar to the main content when the pointer or wheel moves over the main pane, preventing the sidebar scroll area from trapping wheel input on short screens.
+- Validation passed with catalog JSON checks, `npm run type-check`, `cargo fmt --all --check --manifest-path core/Cargo.toml`, and `cargo check -p archipelago --manifest-path core/Cargo.toml` before release.
+
+## v1.7.74-alpha (2026-05-19)
+
+- App-session right panels now re-focus the iframe after load and when the frame area is activated, so wheel/touch scrolling works immediately after switching tabs or selecting an app on shorter screens.
+- NetBird now launches through a unified local origin on port `8087` that proxies the dashboard plus `/oauth2`, `/api`, relay, WebSocket, and gRPC routes to `netbird-server`, fixing the embedded login flow that previously ended in `Unauthenticated` or `404 page not found` after logout.
+- Existing NetBird installs are repaired on adopt/start by rewriting `config.yaml`, `dashboard.env`, and the local nginx proxy config, then creating the missing `netbird-dashboard` and `netbird` proxy containers when needed while preserving NetBird data.
+- Saleor is still pending and is not included in this release; its registry/installer work remains local until it can be validated separately.
+- Validation passed with catalog JSON checks, `npm run type-check`, `cargo fmt --all --check --manifest-path core/Cargo.toml`, and `cargo check -p archipelago --manifest-path core/Cargo.toml`.
+
+## v1.7.73-alpha (2026-05-19)
+
+- Mobile app launches for iframe-blocked apps now open the direct app URL in a new browser tab immediately instead of landing in a broken in-shell webview that requires a second tap.
+- Mobile My Apps/Websites tabs now react to route query changes, App Store pages label the mobile view as Discover, mobile filters have safe bottom spacing, and App Store search ignores the current category so searches cover all available apps.
+- My Apps search now surfaces matching App Store entries when the app is not installed, making it possible to jump directly from a failed My Apps search to the installable app details.
+- NetBird self-host installs now prefer a `100.x` tailnet/CGNAT address for dashboard, management, relay, STUN, and auth redirect origins when one is present; live repair on `100.89.209.89` updated the existing stack from LAN origins to `100.89.209.89` and restored `netbird-server`.
+- App-session iframe frames now focus automatically and wrap the iframe in a scroll host so wheel/touch scrolling works in the active right frame without requiring an initial click.
+
+## v1.7.72-alpha (2026-05-19)
+
+- Settings What's New now includes the missing release notes for `v1.7.68-alpha` through `v1.7.71-alpha`, so the modal reflects the current OTA history instead of stopping at `v1.7.67-alpha`.
+- The follow-up release carries the NetBird install fix, Gitea icon polish, mobile app-session fallback updates, and rounder app icon masks from `v1.7.71-alpha` with the Settings modal notes included.
+- The local Cargo lockfile version metadata is kept in sync with the release bump after the previous release build updated it.
+
+## v1.7.71-alpha (2026-05-19)
+
+- NetBird stack installs now pre-create `/var/lib/archipelago/netbird/data` before binding it into `netbird-server`, fixing the failed install/start path seen on `100.70.96.88` where Podman rejected the missing host directory.
+- NetBird start/restart ordering now starts `netbird-server` before the dashboard container so lifecycle actions bring the control plane up before the UI.
+- App-session invalid IDs and panel-mode fallbacks now return to `/dashboard/apps`, avoiding the stale `/apps` route that could render a 404.
+- Mobile launches for apps that block iframes now stay inside the Archipelago app-session fallback instead of automatically opening an external browser tab.
+- Installed Gitea containers now report the packaged Gitea icon, and app icon masks use a rounder radius on mobile grids, app cards, and detail headers.
+- Validation passed with `npm run type-check`, focused Vitest app-session/app-grid tests, `cargo fmt --all --check --manifest-path core/Cargo.toml`, and `cargo check -p archipelago --manifest-path core/Cargo.toml`.
+
+## v1.7.70-alpha (2026-05-19)
+
+- NetBird is being corrected from the peer/client daemon image to the self-hosted NetBird control-plane stack with a launchable dashboard on port `8087`, a combined management/signal/relay server on `8086`, and STUN on UDP `3478`.
+- App sessions now always launch local apps through direct host ports and carry an explicit dashboard return target, so closing an iframe returns to the launching dashboard screen instead of falling through to browser history or a 404.
+- Mobile app launches ignore stale desktop panel state and route into the full app-session webview consistently.
+- The desktop sidebar now pins the logo/version at the top and controller/online/mode controls at the bottom, with only the navigation section scrolling on shorter screens.
+- Validation passed with catalog JSON checks, `scripts/image-versions.sh` syntax check, `npm run type-check`, `cargo fmt --all --check --manifest-path core/Cargo.toml`, and `cargo check -p archipelago --manifest-path core/Cargo.toml`.
+
+## v1.7.69-alpha (2026-05-19)
+
+- App installs now allow up to 10 minutes for the initial `package.install` RPC to return, matching slow container image pulls and preventing apps from disappearing from My Apps while the backend is still pulling or retrying mirrors.
+- Live diagnostics on `100.70.96.88` confirmed the Gitea install did not fail; the primary registry pull timed out after 300 seconds, the fallback mirror succeeded, and Gitea came up healthy on `3001` while the frontend had already timed out at 15 seconds.
+- Gitea and other Docker-image app installs now stay visible during slow registry pulls instead of being marked as failed by the browser before backend install progress can complete.
+- Gitea is now categorized as a known Data app in My Apps, so a running Gitea container appears with installed apps instead of being filtered into the Websites/Services split.
+- NetBird `0.71.2` is now available in the app catalog and fallback marketplace data as a recommended networking app using the official `docker.io/netbirdio/netbird:0.71.2` image.
+- NetBird installs get persistent state under `/var/lib/archipelago/netbird`, `NET_ADMIN`/`NET_RAW`, `/dev/net/tun`, `slirp4netns`, image-version pinning, backend metadata, and health checks through `netbird status`.
+- The Archipelago terminal now includes `nano` on new disk installs and ISO builds, and self-update installs it on existing nodes if it is missing.
+- Validation passed with catalog JSON checks, shell syntax checks, `npm run type-check`, `cargo fmt --all --check --manifest-path core/Cargo.toml`, and `cargo check -p archipelago --manifest-path core/Cargo.toml`.
+
+## v1.7.68-alpha (2026-05-19)
+
+- BTCPay Server now ships on the official `docker.io/btcpayserver/btcpayserver:2.3.9` image, fixing the plugin catalog crash caused by newer plugin dependency version metadata while preserving existing datadirs and Postgres databases.
+- BTCPay release and first-boot health checks no longer depend on `curl` inside the container; they use a bash TCP probe that works with the official image out of the box.
+- Host nginx now serves Nginx Proxy Manager HTTP-01 challenge files before the Archipelago SPA fallback and is marked as the default HTTP/HTTPS virtual host, so public proxy hosts can issue certificates without hijacking local API traffic.
+- Nginx Proxy Manager first-boot, runtime repair, and container-doctor paths now pre-create the ACME webroot, keep bind mounts owned by the rootless Archipelago user, and sync issued public proxy hosts into host nginx vhosts.
+- The Nginx Proxy Manager host-nginx sync now skips proxy hosts with missing certificate files and rolls back the generated nginx include if validation fails, preventing a bad certificate path from poisoning later nginx reloads.
+- App session close buttons now return to the previous dashboard screen when possible and otherwise fall back to My Apps, avoiding the 404 page after closing an app launched from an invalid or stale history entry.
+- System Update confirmation and mirror modals now teleport to the document body with a full-screen overlay, so they cover the whole app instead of only the right-hand dashboard panel.
+- Mobile app launches stay inside Archipelago's app-session webview and hide desktop-only new-tab launch affordances, including apps such as Home Assistant that previously looked like they would leave the mobile shell.
+- Live recovery on `100.70.96.88` upgraded only the `btcpay-server` container to `docker.io/btcpayserver/btcpayserver:2.3.9`, preserved the existing datadir and Postgres database, and confirmed the container is healthy after a pre-upgrade backup.
+- Public validation confirmed `spay.tx1138.com`/`www` redirect to BTCPay login over HTTPS and `sapien.tx1138.com`/`www` serve the L484 page over HTTPS using the issued Let's Encrypt certificates.
+
+## v1.7.67-alpha (2026-05-18)
+
+- Home dashboard status cards now keep the last known good system, VPN, Bitcoin, and FIPS values while route changes or transient RPC failures are in flight, avoiding false "not configured" or "not running" flashes.
+- Home, Web5 Monitoring, and the Monitoring page headline cards now share the same live system-stat snapshot for CPU, memory, disk, uptime, and load so the visible numbers agree across the UI.
+- Settings What's New is filled through `v1.7.67-alpha`, including the missing historical `v1.7.44-alpha` through `v1.7.66-alpha` entries.
+- Bitcoin/Knots/Core shell lifecycle specs now match the Rust app config memory policy: 8 GiB on normal hosts, 4 GiB on low-memory hosts, and pruned Knots uses a larger dbcache on hosts with enough RAM to improve IBD throughput.
+- ElectrumX/electrs shell lifecycle specs now match the 4 GiB memory policy used by the Rust app config, reducing drift between first boot, reconcile, and app lifecycle paths.
+- Live assessment of `100.70.96.88` identified the current IBD bottlenecks as CPU/thermal/I/O pressure rather than RAM exhaustion, with follow-up work planned for existing-node swap repair, kiosk Chromium CPU reduction, and reconcile failure cleanup.
+
+## v1.7.66-alpha (2026-05-18)
+
+- Nginx Proxy Manager stale-port repair now detects stopped or `Created` Podman records by inspecting `podman ps -a` port metadata, covering records where `podman port nginx-proxy-manager` returns no mapping until start.
+- Live recovery on `100.70.96.88` removed only the stale Nginx Proxy Manager container record and recreated it with `8081:81`, `8084:80`, and `8444:443`, preserving `/var/lib/archipelago/nginx-proxy-manager` data.
+- Validation confirmed Nginx Proxy Manager recovered as healthy and responds through direct admin port `8081`, host compatibility port `81`, and `/app/nginx-proxy-manager/`.
+
+## v1.7.65-alpha (2026-05-18)
+
+- Orchestrator-backed app starts now run the same pre-start repairs as the legacy Podman path, so Nginx Proxy Manager stale `81:81` container metadata is removed and recreated before the orchestrator tries to start it.
+- Live diagnostics on `100.70.96.88` confirmed host nginx is healthy while Nginx Proxy Manager has no listeners on `8081`, `8084`, or `8444`, causing host nginx `502` responses for NPM proxy paths.
+
+## v1.7.64-alpha (2026-05-18)
+
+- Update apply rate limiting is relaxed for authenticated admins from 2 attempts per 10 minutes to 10 attempts per minute, preventing the System Update page from getting stuck behind `429 Too Many Requests` during legitimate OTA retry/troubleshooting flows.
+- The corrected backend artifact rebuild protection from `v1.7.63-alpha` remains in place, so this release is built from a fresh Rust backend binary before publishing.
+
+## v1.7.63-alpha (2026-05-18)
+
+- Release automation now rebuilds the Rust backend after bumping the version and before hashing release artifacts, preventing OTA manifests from pointing at a stale backend binary.
+- This corrected release carries the Nginx Proxy Manager stale-port repair in an updated backend binary, so nodes running `1.7.61-alpha` can actually receive and execute the fix.
+- Validation confirmed the previously published `v1.7.62-alpha` backend artifact still contained `1.7.61-alpha`, explaining why nodes did not advance after applying that update.
+
+## v1.7.62-alpha (2026-05-18)
+
+- Nginx Proxy Manager start and restart now repair stale Podman containers that still publish the admin UI on host port `81`, which conflicts with host nginx on updated nodes.
+- The repair recreates only the stale Nginx Proxy Manager container metadata while preserving `/var/lib/archipelago/nginx-proxy-manager` data and using the current `8081:81`, `8084:80`, and `8444:443` mappings.
+- Runtime stale-listener cleanup for Nginx Proxy Manager is shared across start and restart paths so rootless port helper leftovers are still cleared before lifecycle retries.
+- Validation passed with `cargo fmt --all --check --manifest-path core/Cargo.toml` and `cargo check -p archipelago --manifest-path core/Cargo.toml`.
+
+## v1.7.61-alpha (2026-05-18)
+
+- Multi-container stack installs now keep their app card in the `Installing` state for up to 20 minutes while dependency containers are being pulled and prepared.
+- BTCPay Server installs no longer appear to vanish or fail after two minutes while Postgres and NBXplorer are still being created before the primary `btcpay-server` container exists.
+- The stale-transition escape hatch remains short for start, stop, restart, update, and removal operations, so genuinely wedged lifecycle actions still recover quickly.
+- Live validation on `100.70.96.88` confirmed BTCPay Server completed installation and responds on port `23000` with the expected HTTP redirect.
+
+## v1.7.60-alpha (2026-05-18)
+
+- Meshtastic serial detection now rejects malformed or incomplete handshakes instead of accepting unrelated serial devices as a fallback Meshtastic radio.
+- Mesh radio auto-detection now skips known non-mesh serial devices such as Sierra Wireless LTE modems and Zooz/Z-Wave sticks, avoiding interference with production peripherals.
+- Meshtastic config sync now sends `want_config_id` with the correct protobuf wire type, fixing radio-side `ignore malformed toradio` errors and allowing node-info/contact ingestion.
+- The stable `/dev/mesh-radio` udev rule no longer claims every `ttyACM*` device; it only matches known mesh USB serial adapters and known USB CDC ACM radio vendors.
+- Live validation on `100.70.96.88` confirmed Archipelago selects `/dev/ttyUSB0`, identifies the Meshtastic node, and refreshes 103 mesh contacts.
+
+## v1.7.59-alpha (2026-05-17)
+
+- Mobile app launching now keeps known container apps inside Archipelago's app-session flow instead of forcing desktop-only new-tab behavior on phones.
+- App sessions on mobile now respect the status-bar safe area so foreground iframe content starts below the device chrome while the fullscreen backdrop remains edge-to-edge.
+- Prepackaged website launch buttons now resolve their curated website URLs before website-container fallback logic, restoring launches for the L484 sites and adding the Arch Presentation bookmark.
+- Meshtastic contact discovery now drains the radio config stream through completion and retries config sync when the contact cache is empty, so nearby nodes already known by the radio are more likely to appear in Archipelago.
+- The Apps page now includes a compact sideload button and modal for installing trusted Docker images with optional title, description, and port mapping metadata.
+- Sideloaded app title and description metadata now persist through the backend app-config file so refreshed package scans do not collapse custom apps back to generic IDs.
+- Validation passed with `npm test -- appLauncher`, `npm run build`, `cargo check -p archipelago`, and `cargo fmt --all --check`.
+
+## v1.7.58-alpha (2026-05-17)
+
+- Mesh networking now supports Meshtastic radios over the Meshtastic serial API in addition to existing MeshCore Companion USB radios.
+- The mesh listener now probes preferred and auto-detected serial paths for both MeshCore and Meshtastic firmware, preserving the existing reconnect loop so unplug/replug and firmware hot-swap behavior stays consistent.
+- Meshtastic text packets are translated into the existing Archipelago mesh frame pipeline, so current RPC handlers, transport routing, message storage, typed-message decoding, and UI state continue to work without a separate frontend path.
+- Meshtastic node information is surfaced as normal mesh contacts using stable synthetic public keys derived from Meshtastic node numbers, allowing peer refresh and message attribution to reuse existing MeshCore contact handling.
+- Outbound Archipelago mesh messages can now be sent through Meshtastic as channel text packets using the same command path used by MeshCore channel broadcasts.
+- Device status now reports the detected firmware family as `meshcore` or `meshtastic` from the shared listener abstraction.
+- Radio udev rules now include USB CDC ACM serial devices (`ttyACM*`) alongside CP2102, CH340, and FTDI adapters so Meshtastic boards are more likely to appear through the stable `/dev/mesh-radio` symlink.
+- Host nginx now serves `/assets/*` hashed frontend chunks as immutable static files with a hard 404 on misses instead of falling back to `index.html`, preventing strict MIME errors when a browser has a stale pre-update HTML shell.
+- The SPA HTML shell and service-worker files now revalidate on every load, reducing stale frontend references after OTA updates.
+- OTA runtime promotion now installs the bundled `nginx-archipelago.conf` into `/etc/nginx/sites-available/archipelago` and reloads nginx after a successful config test, so frontend cache/fallback fixes reach existing nodes without a manual deploy.
+- Local validation passed with `cargo check -p archipelago`; live SSH testing against `100.70.96.88` was not completed because temporary public-key authentication was rejected on the target.
+
+## v1.7.57-alpha (2026-05-17)
+
+- Nginx Proxy Manager now avoids privileged rootless Podman host port `81`, preferring `8081:81` while host nginx keeps a compatibility proxy on `:81` for stale cached launch buttons.
+- App installs now allocate ports by checking live host bind availability, falling back to a free high port when preferred ports are already occupied.
+- Portainer-created launchable containers are separated into a `Websites` tab and launch through their discovered published host port instead of hard-coded app URLs.
+- Internal BuildKit helper containers such as `buildx_buildkit_default` are hidden from the Apps UI.
+- Portainer works out of the box on Debian 13/Podman installs by including `catatonit` and by preserving the Podman socket mount as a socket rather than creating it as a directory.
+
+## v1.7.56-alpha (2026-05-15)
+
+- Health notifications now clear when an app is no longer unhealthy, including stale alerts for removed containers such as Portainer.
+- Fresh installs now include the full Wi-Fi userspace stack (`wpasupplicant`, `wireless-regdb`, `iw`, `rfkill`, `polkitd`, `pciutils`, and `usbutils`) so NetworkManager can scan and connect with Intel Wi-Fi cards out of the box.
+- The installed system now grants the `archipelago` service user explicit NetworkManager PolicyKit access for web-triggered Wi-Fi scans and connection changes.
+- Wi-Fi connect now replaces stale/partial NetworkManager profiles and creates an explicit WPA-PSK profile with the supplied password, avoiding no-secret retry failures after a failed attempt.
+- Settings password changes now update the Linux/SSH password through non-interactive sudo, so the web password and SSH password stay in sync when the checkbox is enabled.
+- Quadlet environment values with spaces or shell metacharacters are quoted consistently, preventing env drift recreate loops for apps like nostr-rs-relay and Grafana.
+- Boot/bootstrap reconcile avoids restarting running Bitcoin containers while repairing RPC config, preserving IBD progress on active nodes.
+- Exit code 137 is labeled as SIGKILL instead of assuming OOM, avoiding false OOM alerts for orchestrator-managed recreates.
+- Container reconcile force-recreates Podman records stuck in `Stopping`, preserving bind-mounted app data while recovering wedged containers automatically.
+- Container health reporting is honest for running containers: Archipelago surfaces Podman's actual health state instead of marking every running container healthy.
+- Quadlet reconciliation restarts services when stale health gates, port bindings, network aliases, exec commands, or healthchecks drift from the current manifest.
+- Bitcoin Knots sync performance improves on fresh installs and updates with 8Gi container memory, a 4Gi dbcache, and full CPU parallelism.
+- ElectrumX initial indexing gets more headroom: CPU caps are removed, memory is raised to 4Gi, cache is raised to 3Gi, and oversized sends are allowed for heavier wallet/indexing workloads.
+- Mempool/ElectrumX lifecycle qualification respects pruned/non-archival Bitcoin nodes instead of installing a half-running stack with unhealthy dependencies.
+- LND wallet/RPC helpers are more tolerant of container-owned files and updated REST port metadata, improving LND lifecycle and wallet-connect flows.
+- Marketplace/catalog metadata carries richer container config so remote lifecycle tests install apps using the same settings users get from the UI.
+- The app screensaver no longer activates during media-heavy app sessions such as IndeeHub, Jellyfin, Immich, PhotoPrism, and File Browser; apps can also pause/resume it with media playback messages.
+- A fresh `1.7.56-alpha` unbundled installer ISO is built from the same primary VPS2 release line for easy download and USB flashing.
+
+## v1.7.55-alpha (2026-05-13)
+
+- Container reconcile now force-recreates Podman records stuck in `Stopping`, preserving bind-mounted app data while recovering wedged containers automatically.
+- `.198` is green after the container-layer hardening pass: focused and broad non-destructive lifecycle audits pass, raw Podman health/state sweep is clean, and direct app probes return healthy responses.
+- Release-candidate artifacts are staged separately from live update publishing while Gitea artifact hosting is repaired.
+
+## v1.7.54-alpha (2026-05-06)
+
+- Existing installs now self-repair nginx backend proxy locations for `/bitcoin-status` and `/api/app-catalog`, including hosts where `sites-enabled/archipelago` is a copied active file instead of a symlink.
+- LND UI is consistently served on `18083` across first boot, Tor config, companion Quadlet reconciliation, OTA runtime payloads, and ISO scripts; stale companion units/images are rewritten instead of only checking service active state.
+- OTA frontend tarballs now carry a clean runtime payload with updated scripts, docker UI sources, and canonical nginx config, preventing startup promotion from reintroducing stale host assets.
+- Release ISO builds now support the primary HTTP app registry when bundling core images, so unbundled media includes File Browser/Cloud support instead of requiring a post-install Marketplace download.
+- `.116` was live-updated with the new backend and runtime scripts; focused non-destructive lifecycle audit passes for Bitcoin Knots, LND, BTCPay, Mempool, and Grafana.
+
+## v1.7.53-alpha (2026-05-05)
+
+- Bitcoin Knots/Core config generation no longer duplicates RPC bind and port settings between `bitcoin.conf` and container command args, fixing `Unable to bind all endpoints for RPC server` startup failures.
+- Legacy Bitcoin container healthchecks no longer depend on `bitcoin-cli`, which is absent from current Knots images and can wedge Podman healthcheck runners.
+- Update checks now prefer manifest OTA releases over stale git remotes unless `ARCHIPELAGO_GIT_UPDATES` is explicitly enabled, so installed nodes can see published releases from the VPS mirror.
+
 ## v1.7.52-alpha (2026-05-05)

 - Tailscale now launches the local installed web UI on port `8240` and starts `tailscaled` before `tailscale web`, fixing unreachable installs after container creation.
@@ -23,7 +236,7 @@
 ## v1.7.47-alpha (2026-04-29)

 - Bitcoin Knots/Core sync is now significantly faster. The container now uses every available core for script verification (was capped at 2) and has 8GB of memory instead of 4GB so its 4GB UTXO cache has headroom for the mempool and peer connections. Existing nodes pick up the new limits on next install/update; freshly-installed nodes start at full speed.
- ElectrumX initial indexing is faster too. Its container memory bumped from 1GB to 2GB and its internal cache is now 2GB (default was 1.2GB).
+- ElectrumX initial indexing is faster too. Its CPU cap is removed, container memory is 4GB, and its internal cache is now 3GB (default was 1.2GB).

+# Chat Transcript And Working Notes
+
+Date: 2026-05-02
+
+This file captures the current chat context, decisions, progress, and next steps so work can continue from another device/session.
+
+## User Request
+
+The user asked to continue hardening Archipelago app/container lifecycle, then asked multiple times to save the plan/progress/next steps and finally to save the entire chat to Markdown.
+
+Key user constraints and corrections:
+
+- Continue if next steps are clear; ask only if blocked.
+- Exhaustively harden app/container lifecycle before release.
+- Preserve data during destructive lifecycle testing unless explicitly instructed otherwise.
+- Do not rely on `/app/...` proxy paths for app launch/testing. The user corrected: “we never use paths only ports.”
+- LND/Electrum wallet-connect tests must validate real connection details and QR, including Tor.
+
+## Earlier Progress Summary
+
+Before the latest work, the project already had substantial lifecycle hardening in progress:
+
+- Remote lifecycle harness exists at `tests/lifecycle/remote-lifecycle.sh`.
+- `.198` SSH works with `/home/archipelago/.ssh/id_ed25519`.
+- `.228` RPC works, but SSH is blocked with `Permission denied (publickey,password)`.
+- Multiple backend release binaries were built and deployed to `.198` with backups in `/usr/local/bin/archipelago.bak-*`.
+- Fixed stale package scanner state recovery from `Removing -> Running` when a container is actually live.
+- Fixed startup ordering so crash recovery runs before BootReconciler.
+- Removed dangerous automatic Podman runtime directory deletion on `podman info` failure.
+- Narrowed generic crash recovery to safe legacy containers.
+- Fixed companion reconciliation on install/start/restart.
+- Fixed uninstall/reinstall behavior so uninstall disables manifest apps instead of deleting manifest availability, and reinstall re-enables them.
+- Fixed LND config generation/repair:
+  - `bitcoin.active=true`
+  - `bitcoin.mainnet=true`
+  - `bitcoin.node=bitcoind`
+  - `bitcoind.rpchost=bitcoin-knots:8332`
+  - sudo fallback for writing container-owned config paths.
+- `.198` had previously passed focused lifecycle for `filebrowser`, `bitcoin-knots`, and a looser LND launch test.
+
+## Major Files Touched In This Session

+## LND Wallet Bootstrap Investigation
+
+Initial strict LND probe failed because `/lnd-connect-info` could not read `admin.macaroon`:
+
+```text
+Failed to read LND admin macaroon — is LND installed?
+direct: Permission denied (os error 13)
+sudo: cat: /var/lib/archipelago/lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/mainnet/admin.macaroon: No such file or directory
+```
+
+LND logs showed the wallet was uninitialized/locked:
+
+```text
+Waiting for wallet encryption password. Use lncli create...
+```
+
+Tests showed `lncli create` is interactive and does not support `--stdin`:
+
+```text
+[lncli] flag provided but not defined: -stdin
+```
+
+`lncli unlock --stdin` is supported, so the final approach was:
+
+- Use LND REST unlocker endpoints for new wallet creation.
+- Use `lncli unlock --stdin` only for an existing wallet.
+- Treat “wallet already exists” from REST as a signal to unlock.
+- Use sudo-aware checks/reads for wallet artifacts because LND data directories are container-owned and `0700`.
+
+Implemented in `core/archipelago/src/container/lnd.rs`:
+
+- `ensure_wallet_initialized()`
+- `file_exists_as_root()`
+- `read_file_as_root()`
+- `init_wallet_via_rest()`
+- `get_lnd_unlocker_json()`
+- `post_lnd_unlocker_json()`
+- `unlock_existing_wallet()`
+- `wait_for_admin_macaroon()`
+- `lnd_getinfo_ready()`
+
+Focused Rust test passes:
+
+```bash
+cd /home/archipelago/Projects/archy/core
+cargo test -p archipelago --bin archipelago lnd
+```
+
+Result:
+
+```text
+7 passed; 0 failed
+```
+
+## LND UI Port Collision
+
+The strict LND UI test then failed with `502`.
+
+Investigation found a real port collision:
+
+- `nostr-rs-relay` uses host `8081`.
+- Old `archy-lnd-ui` also used host `8081`.
+- nginx `/app/lnd/` proxy also pointed at `8081`.
+
+Fix implemented:
+
+- Move LND UI companion to host port `18083`, container port `80`.
+- Keep `nostr-rs-relay` on `8081`.
+- Update app metadata/routing to `18083`.
+- Update tests to expect direct port launch.
+
+Important correction from user:
+
+```text
+we never use paths only ports, how many times do you need to be told
+```
+
+Action taken after correction:
+
+- Stop validating through `/app/lnd/` and `/app/electrumx/` in the lifecycle harness.
+- Switch `launch_url_for()` to direct app ports.
+- Switch app session resolver to direct `http://host:port` launch, even from HTTPS parent pages.
+- Remove use of `HTTPS_PROXY_PATHS[id]` in `resolveAppUrl()`.
+
+Direct-port LND audit command:
+
+```bash
+ARCHY_HOST=192.168.1.198 ARCHY_PASSWORD=password123 ARCHY_APPS=lnd tests/lifecycle/remote-lifecycle.sh
+```
+
+Result:
+
+```text
+### 192.168.1.198 iteration 1 / 1 ###
+lnd                    state=running
+all checks passed
+```
+
+The audit now validates `http://192.168.1.198:18083/`, not `/app/lnd/`.
+
+## Lifecycle Harness Changes
+
+`tests/lifecycle/remote-lifecycle.sh` changes made:
+
+- Normalize package states with `ascii_downcase` because API returned `Running`.
+- Direct port launch URLs:
+  - LND: `http://${ARCHY_HOST}:18083/`
+  - Electrum/Electrs: `http://${ARCHY_HOST}:50002/`
+  - Bitcoin UI: `http://${ARCHY_HOST}:8334/`
+  - Other apps mapped to direct ports where known.
+- LND probe checks:
+  - `Connect Your Wallet`
+  - `id="lndQrBox"`
+  - `id="connHost"`
+  - `value="rest-tor"`
+  - `value="grpc-tor"`
+  - `value="rest-local"`
+  - `value="grpc-local"`
+  - `Copy lndconnect URI`
+  - `/lnd-connect-info` cert, macaroon, ports, and Tor onion.
+- Electrum probe checks:
+  - local QR container and address field
+  - Tor QR container and onion field
+  - port `50001`
+  - QR renderer
+  - direct `http://${ARCHY_HOST}:50002/qrcode.js`
+  - `/electrs-status` Tor onion.
+- Full lifecycle now fails immediately on any failed phase with `|| return 1` so a later reinstall cannot mask a failed restart/probe.
+
+## Deployments To `.198`
+
+Several release builds were made and deployed:
+
+```bash
+cd /home/archipelago/Projects/archy/core
+cargo build -p archipelago --bin archipelago --release
+```
+
+Deploy pattern:
+
+```bash
+scp -i /home/archipelago/.ssh/id_ed25519 -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no \
+  /home/archipelago/Projects/archy/core/target/release/archipelago \
+  archipelago@192.168.1.198:/tmp/archipelago.new
+
+ssh -i /home/archipelago/.ssh/id_ed25519 -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no \
+  archipelago@192.168.1.198 \
+  "sudo cp /usr/local/bin/archipelago /usr/local/bin/archipelago.bak-<timestamp> && \
+   sudo install -m 0755 /tmp/archipelago.new /usr/local/bin/archipelago && \
+   sudo systemctl restart archipelago.service && \
+   systemctl is-active archipelago.service"
+```
+
+Latest deploy returned:
+
+```text
+active
+```
+
+## `.198` Current Observations
+
+After forcing LND package restart, companion reconciliation succeeded:
+
+```text
+nostr-rs-relay Up ... 0.0.0.0:8081->8080/tcp
+lnd Up ... 0.0.0.0:8080->8080/tcp, 0.0.0.0:9735->9735/tcp, 0.0.0.0:10009->10009/tcp
+archy-lnd-ui Up ... 0.0.0.0:18083->80/tcp
+```
+
+Direct UI test from `.198` returned `200`:
+
+```bash
+curl -i http://127.0.0.1:18083/
+```
+
+Strict direct-port LND audit is green:
+
+```text
+lnd                    state=running
+all checks passed
+```
+
+## Full LND Lifecycle Status
+
+Full direct-port lifecycle was started:
+
+```bash
+ARCHY_HOST=192.168.1.198 ARCHY_PASSWORD=password123 ARCHY_APPS=lnd ARCHY_FULL_LIFECYCLE=1 tests/lifecycle/remote-lifecycle.sh
+```
+
+It reached:
+
+```text
+### 192.168.1.198 iteration 1 / 1 ###
+== lnd: install ==
+== lnd: stop ==
+```
+
+Then the user aborted the command while asking to save memory/transcript.
+
+The next continuation point is to rerun full LND direct-port lifecycle from scratch and inspect the stop phase if it hangs/fails.
+
+## Handoff File
+
+A durable handoff file was also created:
+
+```text
+docs/CONTAINER_LIFECYCLE_HANDOFF.md
+```
+
+It contains the plan, progress, current blockers, and next steps.
+
+## Immediate Next Steps
+
+1. Rerun full strict LND direct-port lifecycle:
+
+```bash
+ARCHY_HOST=192.168.1.198 ARCHY_PASSWORD=password123 ARCHY_APPS=lnd ARCHY_FULL_LIFECYCLE=1 tests/lifecycle/remote-lifecycle.sh
+```
+
+2. If it hangs/fails at `stop`, inspect package runtime stop path and logs:
+
+```bash
+ssh -i /home/archipelago/.ssh/id_ed25519 -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no archipelago@192.168.1.198 \
+  'journalctl -u archipelago.service -n 260 --no-pager | egrep -i "package\.(stop|start|restart|install|uninstall)|lnd|companion|error|failed" | sed -n "1,220p"; podman ps -a --format "{{.Names}} {{.Status}} {{.Ports}}" | egrep "lnd|nostr" || true'
+```
+
+3. If stop is unreliable, inspect/fix:
+
+- `core/archipelago/src/api/rpc/package/runtime.rs`
+- `core/archipelago/src/container/prod_orchestrator.rs`
+
+Likely causes to check:
+
+- Reconciler restarting LND while stop is expected.
+- State scanner reporting stale `running`.
+- Companion handling interfering with parent app state.
+- Async lifecycle returning before actual stop completes.
+
+4. Once LND full lifecycle is green, run Electrum strict lifecycle with direct port `50002`:
+
+```bash
+ARCHY_HOST=192.168.1.198 ARCHY_PASSWORD=password123 ARCHY_APPS=electrumx ARCHY_FULL_LIFECYCLE=1 tests/lifecycle/remote-lifecycle.sh
+```
+
+5. Continue with app groups after LND/Electrum:
+
+- `filebrowser`
+- `bitcoin-knots`
+- `lnd`
+- `electrumx`
+- `mempool`
+- `btcpay-server`
+- `fedimint`
+- remaining catalog apps.
+
+## Important Instruction To Preserve
+
+Use ports only for app launch/testing. Do not add or rely on `/app/...` path proxy launch behavior unless the user explicitly changes this requirement.

+# Release Notes Backlog
+
+## Next Release Required Work
+
+- Backfill missing or thin historical release notes before cutting the next release.
+- Audit every `CHANGELOG.md` section from `v1.7.44-alpha` through the current release.
+- Replace raw commit-hash entries with user/operator-facing bullets that explain behavior changes, operational impact, validation, and known limitations.
+- Ensure `releases/manifest.json` changelog entries come from curated `CHANGELOG.md` notes only.
+
+## Release Note Policy
+
+- Every release must have at least three curated bullets.
+- Raw `git log --oneline` output is not acceptable release documentation.
+- Notes should answer what changed, why it matters, what operators should expect, and any known limitations.
+- `scripts/check-release-manifest.sh` is the enforcement gate before publishing artifacts.
