Writing the first tests for this section found the bug they were written to look for. `rotate()` started the poll, then the `load()` immediately behind it took a status snapshot that did not yet carry `running: true` and cancelled the interval — so the screen froze on the one action that most needs to show progress. The operator has just invalidated every credential their wallet holds, the rotation is genuinely running on the node, and the page tells them nothing is happening until they reload it by hand. It survived manual review because the backend flips `running` inside the same critical section that accepts the request, so the happy path usually wins the race. "Usually wins a race" is not a property to ship on a credential rotation. Polling now continues for a bounded window after a request the node accepted, and stops early as soon as `running` is observed. Bounded, so a request that was accepted but never acted on stops polling rather than hammering the node. 12 component tests cover the states that carry consequences: the channel census shown before the button is offered, the stale-BTCPay warning, the difference between "BTCPay has no internal node" (silence — an absence, not a fault) and "BTCPay's credential is dead" (a warning), the block on rotating while LND is unreachable, both poll races above, and that an idle tab does not wake the node. Verified: 12/12 new, 880/880 frontend tests, vue-tsc clean, and the rebuilt bundle contains the new strings. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Archipelago Web UI
Vue 3 + TypeScript + Vite + Tailwind CSS + Pinia
The web interface for Archipelago — a self-sovereign Bitcoin Node OS.
Quick Start
cd neode-ui
npm install
npm start
Visit http://localhost:8100 — login with password: password123
This starts:
- Mock backend on port 5959 (no Docker required)
- Vite dev server on port 8100 with HMR
Stop with npm stop.

Dev Modes
The mock backend supports multiple startup modes via VITE_DEV_MODE:
| Mode | Command | Behavior |
|---|---|---|
| default | npm start |
Fully set up, login screen |
| existing | VITE_DEV_MODE=existing npm run dev:mock |
Same as default |
| setup | VITE_DEV_MODE=setup npm run dev:mock |
First-time password setup flow |
| onboarding | VITE_DEV_MODE=onboarding npm run dev:mock |
Post-setup onboarding flow |
| boot | npm run dev:boot |
25s simulated boot sequence |
Mock Backend
The mock backend (mock-backend.js) simulates the full Rust backend for local development:
Pre-installed apps (always visible in My Apps):
- Bitcoin Core, LND, Electrs, Mempool, FileBrowser, LoraBell, Fedimint
Marketplace: 30+ curated apps with Docker images, install/uninstall simulation
Features simulated:
- Authentication (login, password change, TOTP 2FA)
- System metrics (CPU, memory, disk — randomized for realism)
- Node identity (DID, Nostr pubkey, Tor address)
- Federation (3 mock nodes with apps, metrics, trust levels)
- Mesh networking (4 LoRa peers, encrypted messaging, invoices)
- Peer-to-peer messaging
- FileBrowser API (mock file system with Music, Documents, Photos, Videos)
- DWN sync status
- Transport layer (mesh/LAN/Tor routing)
- Notifications (5 realistic entries)
- Claude AI chat proxy (requires
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY)
Container runtime: If Docker/Podman is available, the mock backend will run real containers for installed apps. Otherwise, it simulates them.
Demo Deployment (Portainer)
Deploy the demo via Docker Compose for showcasing:
docker compose -f docker-compose.demo.yml build
docker compose -f docker-compose.demo.yml up -d
Or deploy through Portainer Stacks:
- Stacks > Add stack > name:
archy-demo - Web editor: paste
docker-compose.demo.ymlcontents - Add environment variable:
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY(for Claude chat) - Deploy
Access at http://your-host:4848 — password: password123
Development Commands
npm start # Start mock backend + Vite (recommended)
npm stop # Stop all servers
npm run dev:mock # Same as start, without port cleanup
npm run dev:boot # Boot mode (simulated startup delay)
npm run backend:mock # Mock backend only
npm run dev # Vite only (needs backend running separately)
npm run dev:real # Vite with real Rust backend
npm run build # Production build (outputs to ../web/dist/neode-ui/)
npm run build:docker # Build for Docker (no type checking)
npm run type-check # TypeScript type checking
npm test # Run tests
