Install UX
SystemUpdate.vue now shows a full-screen overlay after apply: the
BitcoinFaceAscii logo, a target-version label, an indeterminate
progress stripe (solid orange; solid green on ready), and an
elapsed-time readout. Polls /health every 1.5s and auto-reloads
once the backend reports the new version. 3-min stall → "Reload
now" button. Download UI also shows a spinner + "Finishing
download — verifying checksum…" while the fake bar sits at 95%.
FIPS reconnect — for real this time
New fips.reconnect RPC does stop → start → wait 20s → re-poll →
classify. Classification buckets: connected / daemon_down /
no_seed_key / no_outbound_udp_or_anchor_down / peers_but_no_anchor,
each with a plain-language hint surfaced verbatim by the Reconnect
button. The real reason nodes like .198/.253 couldn't reach the
anchor: identity::write_fips_key_from_seed was writing fips_key.pub
as a bech32 npub TEXT file, but upstream fips expects 32 raw
bytes. The daemon silently authenticated with garbage. Fix:
PublicKey::to_bytes() → raw 32 bytes, and new
fips::config::normalize_pub_file migrates legacy files by decoding
the npub and rewriting in place. fips.reconnect also re-installs
the config + healed keys to /etc/fips before restarting.
AIUI preservation + restore
apply_update was wiping /opt/archipelago/web-ui/aiui because the
Vue build doesn't include it — every OTA lost the Claude sidebar.
The preserve block now copies aiui/ + archipelago-companion.apk
from the old web-ui into the staging dir before the swap, and
prefers new-tar versions if present. To restore it on the three
nodes that already lost it (.116/.198/.253), this release bundles
the 85 MB aiui build into the frontend tarball. Frontend component
size is now ~155 MB.
Download / install timeouts
Backend download client timeout 1800s → 3600s (1 h). Larger
tarball + slow gitea raw throughput put us above the old cap.
Frontend update.download rpc timeout 30 min → 65 min to match.
package.install rpc timeout 15 min → 45 min — IndeedHub pulls
6 images and was timing out mid-install.
UI nit
"Rollback to Previous" → "Rollback Available".
App-catalog proxy already landed in v1.7.13.
