Plumbs the BlobStore from blobs.rs into ApiHandler. The HMAC capability
key is derived from the node's Ed25519 signing key via a domain-separated
SHA-256 — rotating the identity rotates every outstanding cap (intentional
so a replaced node cannot honour old tokens).
New routes (added to nginx config in both server blocks):
- POST /api/blob — session-authenticated raw upload, returns
{cid, size, mime, filename, self_test_url}. The self_test_url is a
pre-signed cap pointing at the local node so the UI can verify the
round-trip without needing a peer pubkey.
- GET /blob/<cid>?cap=<hex>&exp=<epoch>&peer=<pubkey> — peer-facing,
HMAC-verified in constant time, expiry-checked, then streams bytes.
Mesh.vue gets a minimal "Attachment test (blob store)" section: file
picker → upload → cid display → "Verify round-trip" and "Open in new
tab" buttons. This validates Phase 3a end-to-end before we layer the
ContentRef typed envelope variant on top.

Archipelago OS Image Recipes
Build scripts for creating bootable Debian Linux OS images for Archipelago Bitcoin Node OS.
Quick Start
Build the ISO
# 1. Sync latest configs from live dev server
./sync-from-live.sh
# 2. Build components
./scripts/build-backend.sh
./scripts/build-frontend.sh
# 3. Build the ISO
./build-debian-iso.sh
This creates a bootable Debian Live ISO with Archipelago pre-installed.
Write to USB
# Using dd (recommended)
./write-usb-dd.sh /dev/diskN
# Or use Balena Etcher to flash the ISO
See the ISO-BUILD-CHECKLIST.md for a comprehensive build workflow.
See the Architecture documentation for detailed system information.
What's Included
- Debian Linux Base: Stable Debian 13 (Trixie) distribution
- Podman: Container runtime for apps (rootless by default)
- Archipelago Backend: Rust-based API server
- Archipelago Frontend: Vue.js web interface
- Systemd Services: Automatic service management
- Network Configuration: NetworkManager for easy setup
Build Output
results/archipelago-debian-13-x86_64.iso- Bootable hybrid ISO image
Supported Platforms
- x86_64: Dell OptiPlex, HP ProDesk 400 G4 DM, Start9 Server Pure, and other x86_64 machines
- Build Systems: macOS (requires Docker) and Linux (native or Docker)
Installation Methods
1. Live USB Boot
Boot from USB, run in live mode to test, or install to disk.
2. Full Disk Installation
From the live environment, run:
sudo /archipelago/install-to-disk.sh
This installs Archipelago to a target disk using debootstrap.
