Three stacked bugs made "switch version" silently fail / crash-loop, and
the data-access mismatch corrupted a node's index during recovery attempts.
Backend renderer:
- sync_quadlet_unit ignored the per-app pinned version and re-rendered the
quadlet with the manifest's :latest every reconcile tick, reverting any
switch. Factor the install-time catalog/pin resolution into a shared
resolve_catalog_image() and call it in BOTH install_fresh and
sync_quadlet_unit.
- The renderer folded manifest `entrypoint: ["sh","-lc"]` into Exec=, which
only worked when the image entrypoint was a passthrough shell wrapper. The
versioned images use ENTRYPOINT ["bitcoind"], so Exec=sh -lc ... became
`bitcoind sh -lc ...` and crash-looped. Emit a real Entrypoint= override;
exec_changed now also compares Entrypoint=.
Images:
- Build all bitcoin images (Core + Knots, every version) as container-root
(USER removed) like the legacy :latest image. Chain data is owned by the
data_uid (container uid 102); root reads it via CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE (granted in
the manifest). A non-root USER (the previous uid 1000) can't read existing
chain data → "Error initializing block database". Still fully rootless:
container-root maps to the unprivileged host service user.
Catalog:
- bitcoin-knots versions[]: 29.3.knots20260508/20260507/20260210 +
29.2.knots20251110, "latest" tracking newest.
- bitcoin-core versions[]: add 29.2 + a "latest" entry. All images rebuilt
root and published to the mirror.
Frontend:
- AppSidebar version dropdown: rename the latest option to "Always use the
latest version" (no v prefix), fix right padding, and guarantee the current
selection matches a real option (was rendering blank).
- New InstallVersionModal: full-screen version chooser shown from the App
Store / Discover install button for multi-version apps (Bitcoin Knots/Core),
app icon + "Install <name>", latest pre-selected.

Headless containers (databases, APIs, backends without a UI) belong in a
tab labelled 'Services', not 'Websites'. The categorisation logic already
routes UI-less packages there (built under #45); this finishes the rename
of the user-facing label across Apps, Marketplace, Discover and the mobile
nav, and makes 'services' the canonical tab state/query param. Old
?tab=websites bookmarks still resolve (back-compat acceptor kept).

Resilience-validated release. Three full sweeps of the new resilience
harness against .228 confirm no shipstoppers.
Big user-visible:
- Bitcoin RPC auth durably correct via host-rendered nginx.conf bind-mount,
replaces fragile post-start exec that failed under restricted-cap rootless
podman ("crun: write cgroup.procs: Permission denied")
- Multi-container stack installs (indeedhub, immich, btcpay, mempool) now
emit phase events at every boundary so the progress bar advances
- Apps no longer vanish from the dashboard mid-install (absent-scanner skips
packages in transitional states)
- Indeedhub fresh installs work end-to-end (was 8500+ restart loop): five
missing env vars (DATABASE_PORT, QUEUE_HOST, QUEUE_PORT,
S3_PRIVATE_BUCKET_NAME, AES_MASTER_SECRET) added to install code
- Tailscale install fixed: --entrypoint string was being passed as a single
shell-line arg; switched to custom_args array
- Catalog cleaned of broken entries (dwn, endurain, ollama removed; nextcloud
restored on docker.io)
- Bitcoin Core update path uses correct image (was looking for nonexistent
lfg2025/bitcoin:28.4)
- ISO installs now allocate swap on the encrypted data partition
Infra:
- New resilience harness (scripts/resilience/) — black-box state-machine
tester, every app × every transition. Run before each release.
Sweep #3 final: PASS 107 / FAIL 12 / SKIP 14. The 12 fails are 1 cosmetic
(homeassistant trusted_hosts), 8 harness/timing false-positives, and 3
non-shipstopper tracked items. Down from 23 in baseline sweep #1.

Podman emits zero parseable progress when stderr is piped (no TTY), so
the old byte-counter regex never matched in real installs. Users saw
0% for the whole pull, then a jump to 95%, then silence through
create-container, health-check, and post-install hooks.
Replace with 7 explicit lifecycle phases wired through install.rs and
update.rs: Preparing (5%), PullingImage (20%), CreatingContainer (70%),
StartingContainer (80%), WaitingHealthy (88%), PostInstall (95%),
Done (100%). Each maps to a fixed UI progress and status message.
Frontend PHASE_INFO mapper in stores/server.ts prioritizes phase when
present, falls back to byte-counter for legacy. A Math.max forward-only
guard ensures the bar never regresses. Deleted the duplicate watcher
in Discover.vue that was fighting the store's watcher with stale byte
logic. Added shimmer CSS on the fill (with prefers-reduced-motion
opt-out) so the bar looks alive during long phases.
With the backend flipped to async-spawn, install/uninstall/update return
immediately with a { status, package_id } envelope. Client timeouts of
45m/11m were a leftover from synchronous handlers and masked real RPC
failures.
Drop all install/uninstall/update RPC timeouts to 15s. Progress and
terminal state still arrive through the live state stream — the RPC
only needs to confirm the spawn was accepted.
Return-type annotations updated in rpc-client.ts and stores/server.ts.
Five direct rpcClient.call sites across Marketplace.vue, Discover.vue,
and MarketplaceAppDetails.vue updated with the shorter timeout.
App catalog served from Gitea repos (app-catalog) with 35 apps.
Nodes fetch catalog dynamically — new apps appear without frontend
rebuild. Test app added and removed to verify pipeline.
Gitea manifest updated with internal_port/nginx_proxy for iframe.
Updated catalog.json, nginx configs, app session configs.

Backend:
- Add --add-host host.containers.internal:host-gateway to LND and Bitcoin
Knots containers (fixes DNS resolution failure in rootless podman)
- Add --user 0:0 and DAC_OVERRIDE to nginx UI sidecar containers
(fixes chown crash in rootless podman for bitcoin-ui, electrs-ui, lnd-ui)
- Add hostadd to Rust Podman API client for web UI container installs
- Add Chromium privacy flags to kiosk launcher (disable telemetry)
Frontend:
- Fix onboarding reset on raw IP visits (trust localStorage as first-class
signal, skip boot screen when server is up but not onboarded)
- Fix seed regression: persist challenge indices in sessionStorage so going
back from Verify doesn't change which words are asked
- Remove glass container from seed Generate/Verify/Restore screens
- Add Back button to Restore from Seed screen
- Replace Network card: Tor (purple), VPN status (orange), Bitcoin sync (orange)
- Add ElectrumX to curated app list with correct .webp icon
- Install flow: navigate to My Apps immediately with toast, hide
installed/installing apps from marketplace and discover views

Replace fragmented random key generation with a single 24-word BIP-39
mnemonic that deterministically derives all node keys: Ed25519 (DID),
secp256k1 (Nostr/Bitcoin), BIP-84 xprv (Bitcoin Core), and LND aezeed
entropy. New onboarding flow: seed generate → word verification → identity
naming. Restore path enabled via 24-word entry. Includes seed RPC handlers,
mock backend support, LND/Bitcoin Core wallet-from-seed integration, and
UI polish across settings and discover views.

Move installingApps from local refs in Marketplace/Discover to the
global server store. Install progress now persists when navigating
between views. My Apps shows installing overlay with progress bar
for apps being installed from the Marketplace.
Changes:
- server.ts: add installingApps Map + helpers to store
- Marketplace.vue: use store's installingApps instead of local ref
- Discover.vue: same
- Apps.vue: pass isInstalling + installProgress to AppCard
- AppCard.vue: add amber installing overlay with progress bar
522 tests pass, vue-tsc clean.

- Task 13: added archy-* prefix containers, mempool-api, UI containers

- Task 12: App Store card hover changed from white/10 to orange-500/5
with orange border glow (subtle, not severe)
