Reported on-device: searching for films in AIUI returns nothing. Init only ever
asked for scope 'own' (content.list-mine — this node's own shared files), so
IndeeHub and everything else purchased, which lives in 'owned'
(content.owned-list), and other nodes' catalogs in 'peers' were never fetched.
Both scopes existed only as type-signature options with no call site anywhere
in the app.
requestArchyAllContent() now loads all three concurrently and merges once.
Merged rather than three setArchyContent calls because that sink REPLACES
films/podcasts — separate pushes would leave only whichever resolved last, the
same class of bug as the shared sequence guard fixed in aac81503. Deduped by
id, since a title can legitimately appear both owned locally and offered by a
peer. Each scope is caught individually so one dead or slow peer costs only its
own results, which is normal rather than exceptional.
requestArchyContent also stops clobbering songs with an empty array, mirroring
what requestArchyLibrary already did for films/podcasts.
vue-tsc clean, 3/3 useArchy tests pass, and the change is verified present in
the built bundle rather than assumed.

Archipelago
Self-sovereign Bitcoin node OS and manifest-driven app platform.
Archipelago is a bootable personal server OS for Bitcoin infrastructure,
self-hosted apps, mesh communication, decentralized identity, and federation.
Apps are packaged as declarative manifest.yml files and run as rootless
Podman containers managed by the Rust backend.
What is here
core/- Rust workspace: backend API, container runtime, security, OpenWrt helpers, and performance/resource management.neode-ui/- Vue 3 + TypeScript frontend.apps/- app manifests and custom app container sources.docker/- supporting container build contexts for UI companion surfaces.image-recipe/- bootable image/ISO build inputs.Android/- Android companion app.scripts/- development, release, deployment, and validation tooling.docs/- architecture, app packaging, operations, API, and roadmap docs.
Platform model
Archipelago is built as a developer-ready app platform, not a fixed appliance:
- Apps are declared in
apps/<app-id>/manifest.yml. - The Rust parser in
core/container/src/manifest.rsis the canonical schema. - The orchestrator compiles manifests to rootless Podman/Quadlet runtime state.
- App data lives under
/var/lib/archipelago/<app-id>/. - Secrets are generated or read from
/var/lib/archipelago/secrets/and injected through Podman secrets rather than static environment values. - Release and app catalogs are signed and verified against a pinned trust anchor.
Start with:
- Architecture
- Developer Guide
- App Developer Guide
- App Manifest Spec
- Nostr Git Source Hosting Plan
- Operations Runbook
- Troubleshooting
Quick start
Frontend
cd neode-ui
npm install
npm start
The dev UI runs at http://localhost:8100 with a mock backend on :5959.
Backend
cd core
cargo build
cargo test --all-features
Linux is the supported backend runtime and release-build target. macOS is fine for frontend work and many Rust compile/test loops, but host integration tests that touch Podman, systemd, networking, or image build paths require Linux.
App manifests
./scripts/validate-app-manifest.sh apps/filebrowser/manifest.yml
python3 scripts/generate-app-catalog.py
python3 scripts/check-app-catalog-drift.py --release --strict
scripts/generate-app-catalog.py requires Python with PyYAML installed.
