Frontend updates now actually ship. Since roughly v1.7.17 the release pipeline had been rebuilding the backend every version but silently skipping the frontend bundle — a permissions issue on the build server meant vue-tsc failed before vite ever ran, and nobody noticed because the published tarballs still extracted cleanly. The result was the backend moving forward while the UI stayed frozen at its v1.7.9-era state, which is why the FIPS gear icon and the What's New entries for every release since then had been missing on your node.
+
Once this update applies, your node gets the real v1.7.24 frontend: the FIPS Seed Anchors modal (gear icon on the FIPS Mesh card), the current What's New history, the cancel-download button, and every other UI touch from the releases in between.

- "FIPS Seed Anchors are now one click away. A small gear icon sits next to the status pill on the FIPS Mesh card — click it to open a modal where you can add, remove, and re-apply anchors. No more needing to go digging for the card or editing JSON by hand.",
- "The modal lists each anchor with its label, truncated npub, address, and transport, plus an Apply button to force-redial the full list and a Remove button per entry. The add form right below validates that the address is host:port and the npub is bech32 before saving."
