Single authoritative hub (docs/PRODUCTION-MASTER-PLAN.md) for the app-platform north star: every app manifest-driven (zero OS-level reliance), manifests via the signed registry, developer-ready external marketplace; rootless/secure/robust/ 100%-uptime. Repo CLAUDE.md (auto-loaded each session) points agents at it until the 20x lifecycle gate is green. New design doc registry-manifest-design.md. Consolidated docs 56 -> 28: deleted dated handoffs/resumes/transcripts and superseded trackers (content folded into the master plan or already in memory). Kept all evergreen design/reference docs + ADRs (the master links them). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Archipelago — agent guide
|
||
|
||
## 🚩 TOP PRIORITY (until production testing passes)
|
||
|
||
**Read `docs/PRODUCTION-MASTER-PLAN.md` first.** It is the authoritative plan and
|
||
overrides ad-hoc direction until the production test gate is green. Goal: a
|
||
world-class, **developer-ready app platform** where every app is manifest-driven,
|
||
manifests ship via the **signed registry** (not OTA disk files), and **third-party
|
||
developers publish apps via an external/decentralized registry** — all rootless,
|
||
secure, robust, and 100%-uptime-capable.
|
||
|
||
Detailed sub-plans (all linked from the master):
|
||
- App platform / packaging phases + security model → `docs/APP-PACKAGING-MIGRATION-PLAN.md`
|
||
- Registry-distributed manifests (in progress) → `docs/registry-manifest-design.md`
|
||
- External/decentralized marketplace for devs → `docs/marketplace-protocol.md`
|
||
- Current per-app state → `docs/app-registry-status-2026-06-21.md`
|
||
- Production test gate (exit criterion) → `tests/lifecycle/TESTING.md`
|
||
|
||
## Invariants (never violate)
|
||
|
||
- **Rootless Podman only.** No rootful, no Docker-socket mounts, no privileged
|
||
containers unless explicitly approved.
|
||
- **No per-app Rust installers / no OS-level reliance.** Apps are declarative;
|
||
the orchestrator owns the lifecycle. `install_immich_stack` (hardcoded
|
||
`podman run` + `sudo chown`) is the anti-pattern being deleted, not a template.
|
||
- **Secrets are manifest-declared** (`generated_secrets`, materialised by
|
||
`container::secrets`, 0600/rootless) — never hardcoded, per-app, or logged.
|
||
- **Migrations never destroy data** — preserve `/var/lib/archipelago/<app>`,
|
||
secrets, credentials, ports, and adoption container names; keep a rollback path.
|
||
- **Verify on a real node (.228, then .198) before any tag.**
|
||
|
||
## Build / verify
|
||
|
||
- Rust workspace root is `core/` (no Cargo.toml at repo root). `cargo` from `core/`.
|
||
- If a `cargo test`/build hits `rust-lld: undefined hidden symbol`, it's
|
||
incremental-cache corruption — rebuild with `CARGO_INCREMENTAL=0`.
|
||
- Frontend: `neode-ui/` → `npm run build` outputs to `web/dist/neode-ui/`.
|
||
Grep the built bundle for new strings before shipping (build can silently no-op).
|
||
- App manifests load from disk on nodes at `/opt/archipelago/apps/*/manifest.yml`
|
||
(today); the goal is to distribute them via the signed catalog instead.
|
||
|
||
## Production test gate (definition of done)
|
||
|
||
`tests/lifecycle/run-20x.sh` green across install / UI / stop / start / restart /
|
||
reinstall / reboot-survive / archipelago-restart-survive / uninstall — **20× on
|
||
.228 AND .198**. Until green, the master plan is the priority.
