The audit recorded F-10 as two call sites in container/secrets.rs. The real defaulted-RNG surface is 41 sites across 15 files: session.rs (16), pine_ha.rs (6), wallet/bdhke.rs (4 — ecash key material), mesh/x3dh.rs (2 — key-agreement material), storage_crypto.rs (1 — AEAD nonce), +10 more. Nothing is broken today: rand::random()/thread_rng() are ChaCha12 seeded from getrandom(2). What changes is blast radius — F-10's Low rating rested on 'per-app credentials rather than the master key hierarchy', which does not survive the true scope. Re-rated Medium as F-10a. Records why the original audit missed it: F-10 was reached by tracing the manifest-secrets path, and no step enumerated defaulted-RNG use across the crate independently of the traced paths. F-10's original text is left unedited so the correction is auditable rather than retroactive. R-13 superseded by R-16; tracker item replaced. Adds KEY-05 to Phase 10: sealed allowlist trait at key-gen seams, clippy disallowed-methods ban (compile-time, CI-enforced), cargo-deny on duplicate rand majors, degenerate-entropy runtime check, persisted CSPRNG-readiness verdict. Also retires the false 'impl CryptoRng for CountingRng' at seed.rs:656. Records the user's execution gate: Phase 10 does not start until the concurrent Phase 1 agent is finished and their changes are synced. KEY-05 is unplanned — the existing 5 plans predate it and a 6th is required. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
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.

- 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.
