image_exists ran `podman image inspect <image>` via .status() (inherits the
service stdout) with no --format, so every hit dumped the image's full ~249-line
manifest JSON into the journal — once per companion image, every reconcile pass
(.228: 21.6k journal lines / 10 min, 4131 inspect dumps). The service never
crashed (NRestarts=0); the sustained journald/IO flood starved the async runtime
and dropped the UI /ws/db websocket -> constant "connection lost"/reconnect.
Discard the child's stdout/stderr; only the exit status is used.

UI (this session):
- Global audio player now scales the whole interface into the space above it
on desktop (sidebar + main) and docks directly above the tab bar on mobile;
it stays visible while navigating.
- Mesh mobile redesign: floating Chat / BTC / Dead Man / AI / Map tab strip
with a single fixed, internally-scrolling pane (page no longer scrolls);
tabs hide while a conversation is open; floating back button; collapsible
Device panel (starts collapsed); keyboard-aware conversation sizing via
VisualViewport so the chat sits just above the keyboard.
- Cloud file grid: uniform 4/3 card heights (folders + images match).
- Swipe left/right switches tabs on the Apps and Web5 screens.
- Map tool fills its pane (no bottom gap); fix skewed Share Location toggle
on mobile (global min-height rule was deforming the switch).
- Trim redundant helper copy from the mesh AI tab.
Also bundles pre-existing in-progress work that was already in the tree:
mesh listener/session + wallet + container + bitcoin-status backend changes,
docker UI updates, and assorted other UI tweaks.

The QuadletUnit struct now covers everything a backend manifest needs
(ports, environment, devices, add_hosts, entrypoint+command, read-only
root, no_new_privileges, cpu_quota, restart policy choice). Adds
QuadletUnit::from_manifest(&AppManifest, name) that translates a parsed
manifest into a unit, plus parse_memory_mib for "1g"/"512m"/raw-MiB
forms. The renderer skips empty/false directives so existing companion
units render byte-identically — no behavior change for shipping
companions; the backend renderer is dead code until Phase 3.2 wires it
into the orchestrator.
Eight new unit tests cover:
* parse_memory_mib forms (1024, 512m, 2g, garbage)
* shell_join quoting (whitespace, embedded quotes)
* RestartPolicy → systemd string mapping
* render emits backend directives when set
* render skips them when defaulted (companion regression gate)
* from_manifest happy path on a bitcoin-knots-shaped manifest
* from_manifest read-only volume detection
* from_manifest tmpfs filtering
* end-to-end manifest → render bytes assertion
Tests: 615 → 624 (+9 net; one pre-existing parse_memory_mib path was
implicitly covered before but is now explicit). Cargo warnings: 0.
`from_manifest`, `parse_memory_mib`, and `RestartPolicy::OnFailure` are
marked allow(dead_code) with explicit references to Phase 3.2 — if
3.2 doesn't wire them, the dead-code warning resurfaces.

Phase 3a of the install path consolidation. Two coupled changes:
1. install.rs handle_package_install: gate the legacy "container exists →
adopt + return" probe on !orchestrator_managed. Apps the orchestrator
knows about (bitcoin-knots, bitcoin-core, lnd, electrumx, fedimint,
filebrowser, btcpay-server stack apps, mempool stack apps, plus the
companion UIs that just moved to Quadlet) skip the legacy probe and
fall straight into the orchestrator branch.
The legacy adopt block was returning success on a bare `podman start`
exit-0 — even when the process inside the container crashed seconds
later. That's the .228 "running but unreachable" failure mode. The
orchestrator's ensure_running honors the manifest's health check and
pre-start hooks (e.g. re-renders bitcoin-ui's nginx.conf if the RPC
password rotated), so this is a behavioral upgrade, not just a
refactor.
2. ProdContainerOrchestrator::install: make idempotent. Previously it
blindly called install_fresh which would fail on `podman create` if
the container name already existed. Now it delegates to ensure_running:
- Container Running + healthy → no-op (refresh hooks, restart if
config rewritten)
- Container Stopped/Exited → start (with hook refresh)
- Container missing → install_fresh
- Container in wedged state (Created/Paused/Unknown) → force-recreate
Without this, change #1 would regress every "container already exists"
case for the 18 orchestrator-managed app IDs. With it, install becomes
the single source of truth for "make app X be in the desired state."
Tests: 654 passed across the workspace (614 unit + 37 orchestration + 3
rpc), 0 failures. The 20 prod_orchestrator tests cover the install /
ensure_running / reconcile paths the new install delegates through.
Net delta: install.rs grows by ~30 lines (gating wrapper + comments),
prod_orchestrator.rs grows by ~30 lines (idempotent install body). Both
are temporary — the larger deletions (~1700 lines) come once every app
has been verified through the orchestrator path in subsequent phases.

Companion UI containers (archy-bitcoin-ui, archy-lnd-ui,
archy-electrs-ui) used to be launched as fire-and-forget tokio::spawn
blocks from install.rs. If archipelago crashed mid-spawn or the
container's cgroup was reaped, companions vanished from podman ps -a
and only a manual rm/run could bring them back (the .228 incident).
Now each companion is rendered as a Quadlet .container unit under
~/.config/containers/systemd/, daemon-reloaded, and started via
systemctl --user. systemd owns supervision from that point on:
- archipelago can crash, restart, or be uninstalled without touching
any companion.
- Quadlet's Restart=always + RestartSec=10 handles container exits.
- A 30s reconcile tick in boot_reconciler enumerates expected
companion units and re-installs any whose unit file or service
vanished — defense-in-depth against external tampering.
New module layout:
- container/quadlet.rs: pure unit renderer + atomic write_if_changed
+ systemctl helpers (daemon_reload_user / enable_now / disable_remove
/ is_active). 6 unit tests, no I/O in the renderer.
- container/companion.rs: per-app companion specs, install/remove/
reconcile, image presence (build local first, fall back to insecure
registry only via image_uses_insecure_registry whitelist). 2 tests.
install.rs handle_package_install now ends with a single call to
companion::install_for(package_id), replacing 287 lines of spawn-and-
hope shellouts plus a ~120-line nginx auth-injector helper that worked
around per-node RPC password baking. The helper is gone too — the
pre-start hook renders the per-node nginx.conf to /var/lib/archipelago/
bitcoin-ui/nginx.conf and the Quadlet unit bind-mounts it read-only.
runtime.rs handle_package_uninstall now disables companions before
the container rm loop. Otherwise systemd's Restart=always would
respawn each companion within ~10s of removal.
Tests: 53 container tests pass, including 6 quadlet renderer tests
(host network, bridge network, capability set, atomic write idempotence)
and 2 companion specs (per-app companion lookup, build_unit shape).
boot_reconciler tests gain a #[cfg(test)] without_companion_stage()
flag so the paused-clock fixtures don't race the real systemctl I/O.
A bats regression test (companion-survives-archipelago-restart.bats,
gated on ARCHY_ALLOW_DESTRUCTIVE=1) asserts the .228 failure mode
cannot recur: every installed companion has a unit file, services
stay active across systemctl --user restart archipelago, and a
deleted unit file is recreated within one reconcile tick.
Net delta: +941 / -363, but the +941 is mostly tests (~440 lines)
and the new declarative layer; the imperative tokio::spawn block and
its nginx-auth helper are gone, removing two failure classes
(orphan companions on archipelago crash, and post-start exec races
under tightly-confined cgroups) that previously needed manual SSH
recovery.
