history.rs persists the ChatMessage transcript under data_dir (D-08), keyed by a HistoryKey derived from CallerScope so an operator's AIUI session and a mesh peer's transcript are structurally distinct files, not two rows a filter could forget. Writes are atomic (temp sibling + rename, matching music/index.rs::save_atomic's precedent) and 0600, following grants.rs's convention. Tool results longer than MAX_TOOL_RESULT_CHARS are truncated with a visible marker before entering history -- a new, assistant-scoped constant, never assist.rs's LoRa-airtime-tuned reply cap. Once the transcript exceeds KEEP_VERBATIM_TURNS, older turns fold into a running summary extended incrementally as turns age out, never regenerated from the full transcript. Wallet/files-category tool-call arguments are never persisted (AI-SPEC §7b's field policy applied to storage, not only tracing) -- categories are resolved by the caller from the same tools registry execute_tool uses, so history.rs never re-derives a second, driftable category list. Nothing reachable from confirm.rs's pending- confirmation state has a parameter path into this module at all (S-09 stays true structurally). assistant.history / assistant.clear-history route through 13-01's existing assistant.* dispatcher arm (dispatcher.rs untouched), each scoped to the calling session's own HistoryKey. run_loop (loop_.rs) now returns (answer, full_history) instead of just the answer string -- structurally necessary so chat() (mod.rs) can persist the tool-call/tool-result messages the loop built internally, not only the user question and final answer (Rule 3, mirroring 13-05's precedent of touching a file outside its own plan's files_modified list when the plan's own intent requires it). chat() persists this turn after run_loop returns; it does not yet feed prior persisted turns back into live model context -- a documented, deliberately scoped follow-up (see mod.rs's chat() doc comment and the plan SUMMARY). 8 new tests under assistant::history::tests::, including operator_and_mesh_transcripts_are_separate and wallet_tool_arguments_never_reach_the_transcript (asserted against both the deserialized struct and the raw on-disk bytes). Full assistant:: suite: 50/50 (42 baseline-after-Task-1 + 8 new); confirm::tests:: restart_drops_pending_not_executes still passes -- S-09 not weakened.

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.
