archipelagoandClaude Opus 5 fe6ccff73c feat(13-01): Rust assistant spine — one curated tool, one backend, one RPC surface
D-01/D-02/D-06 tracer slice: a new crate::assistant module (CallerScope,
PermissionCategory, ToolExecCtx, chat()) runs a multi-turn tool-calling loop
(run_loop/execute_tool, MAX_TURNS=8) against a curated single-tool registry
(system_disk_status, hand-written JSON Schema — no schemars) via a Claude
Messages API backend. execute_tool is the single choke point: unknown tools
are refused not ignored, D-16 category grants are re-checked even though the
system prompt already omits ungranted tools, and every real tool dispatches
through the SAME handle_system_disk_status RPC handler every other
authenticated caller uses (assistant_dispatch_tool bridge in
api/rpc/assistant_chat.rs) — never an AI-only backdoor.

assistant.chat is registered in dispatcher.rs as a single guarded
`m if m.starts_with("assistant.")` arm reached only after the existing
session-cookie + CSRF + role.can_access() gate in api/rpc/mod.rs — asserted
directly by assistant_methods_require_session against the live
UNAUTHENTICATED_METHODS list (visibility only widened to pub(crate) for that
assertion; the list's contents are untouched, per the Phase-10 hard
constraint).

Key read from data_dir/secrets/claude-api-key — the same path
mesh/rpc/mesh/assistant.rs already probes — never a second key location.

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.

Debian 13 License Rust Vue.js Version

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.rs is 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:

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.
