- GET /api/pine/status: public tier (version/uptime/bitcoin/mesh facts) for the Pine page; bearer-token tier (Lightning balances, latest mesh message) for the seeded Home Assistant sensors. Token minted 0600 at secrets/pine-status-token; nginx location ships via the bootstrap self-heal + canonical ISO conf. Replaces the per-node socat forwarder and bitcoind RPC credentials living in HA's configuration.yaml. - pine_ha seeder: REST sensors + four ask-Archy intents (block height, peers, sync %, Lightning balance) with LLM tool descriptions; Claude conversation agent (anthropic entry from the node's claude-api-key) set as pipeline default with prefer_local_intents so exact phrases stay local and fuzzy ones tool-route through Claude; mesh-message announce automation on every Assist satellite; bounded config markers with legacy-block migration. - pine-openwakeword joins the pine stack (all lifecycle sites) — on-node wake-word engine groundwork for the custom "Yo Archy" model.

Archipelago OS Image Recipes
Build scripts for creating bootable Debian Linux OS images for Archipelago Bitcoin Node OS.
Quick Start
Build the ISO
# 1. Sync latest configs from live dev server
./sync-from-live.sh
# 2. Build components
./scripts/build-backend.sh
./scripts/build-frontend.sh
# 3. Build the ISO
./build-debian-iso.sh
This creates a bootable Debian Live ISO with Archipelago pre-installed.
Write to USB
# Using dd (recommended)
./write-usb-dd.sh /dev/diskN
# Or use Balena Etcher to flash the ISO
See the ISO-BUILD-CHECKLIST.md for a comprehensive build workflow.
See the Architecture documentation for detailed system information.
What's Included
- Debian Linux Base: Debian 13 (Trixie) with security updates applied during ISO/install creation
- Podman: Container runtime for apps (rootless by default)
- Archipelago Backend: Rust-based API server
- Archipelago Frontend: Vue.js web interface
- Systemd Services: Automatic service management
- Network Configuration: NetworkManager for easy setup
Build Output
results/archipelago-installer-x86_64.iso- Bootable hybrid ISO image
Supported Platforms
- x86_64: Dell OptiPlex, HP ProDesk 400 G4 DM, Start9 Server Pure, and other x86_64 machines
- Build Systems: macOS (requires Docker) and Linux (native or Docker)
Installation Methods
1. Live USB Boot
Boot from USB, run in live mode to test, or install to disk.
2. Full Disk Installation
From the live environment, run:
sudo /archipelago/install-to-disk.sh
This installs Archipelago to a target disk using debootstrap.
