# AGENTS.md — Keysat workspace

Self-hosted, Bitcoin-native software licensing service running as a StartOS 0.4.x
package, with four wire-compatible SDKs and a public landing/docs site.

This file holds whole-repo, every-session facts. Subsystem detail lives in scoped
guides under `docs/guides/` (symlinked to `.claude/rules/` so Claude Code
auto-loads each when you edit matching files). **Before editing a subsystem, read
its guide** — see the index below.

## Stack

- **Daemon**: Rust 1.88, `axum`, `sqlx` + SQLite, Ed25519 signing.
- **Wrapper**: TypeScript, `@start9labs/start-sdk ^1.3.2`, `@vercel/ncc` bundle, Node 22.
- **SDKs**: TS (npm), Rust (crates.io), Python (PyPI), Go (proxy.golang.org).
- **Platform**: StartOS 0.4.0.x (LXC under the hood — commands/paths reflect that, not Docker).
- **Payment providers**: BTCPay Server (required dep); Zaprite (optional, gated by `zaprite_payments`).

## Subsystem guides (read before editing the area)

- Before editing the daemon source, read `docs/guides/daemon-architecture.md`.
- Before editing payment / provider / merchant-profile code or migrations 0020–0022, read `docs/guides/payments.md`.
- Before touching self-license or tier-gating code, read `docs/guides/licensing-tiers.md`.
- Before changing the LIC1 wire format, crypto, or crosscheck fixtures, read `docs/guides/crypto-wire-format.md`.
- Before building, bumping the version, or editing the StartOS wrapper, read `docs/guides/startos-packaging.md`.
- Before editing the admin SPA (`web/index.html`), read `docs/guides/admin-ui.md`.
- Before editing public site/docs copy, read `docs/guides/website-copy.md`.
- Before adding/altering tests or relying on lint/CI, read `docs/guides/testing.md`.

## Build / test / run (quick ref)

From `licensing-service-startos/`: `make x86` | `make arm` | `make universal` |
`make install` | `make clean` | `npm run check`. From
`licensing-service-startos/licensing-service/`: `cargo check` | `cargo build
--release` | `cargo test` | `cargo test --test <suite>` | `cargo test <name>`.
Details, the version-bump-before-build rule, and release scripts:
`docs/guides/startos-packaging.md`. Test suites, the no-CI / formatting-not-enforced
status, and known-failing tests: `docs/guides/testing.md`.

```

Note: `licensing-service-startos/` and each SDK are **separate git repos**; the
root `Licensing` repo is a workspace backup that tracks docs (AGENTS.md, plans,
guides) but not the code. Commit code changes in their own repo.

## Conventions (whole-repo)

- Daemon licensed `LicenseRef-Keysat-1.0` (custom, source-available); SDKs MIT.
- Commits in imperative mood, body only when the "why" isn't obvious. **Sign as
  Keysat (Grant), not Claude** — git user is `Keysat`.
- Direct push to `main` + run `~/.keysat/publish.sh` is the authorized release flow
  until launch.
- Never rewrite user-facing copy outside the explicit scope of a request.

## Never

- **No AI co-authorship** on commits or PRs (no "Co-Authored-By", no "Generated with…").
- **Don't push `--no-verify`** or bypass hooks unless explicitly authorized.
- **Don't commit built artifacts** (`*.s9pk`, `keysat-*.s9pk`, `javascript/`) or
  **secrets** — reference env-var names; real values live in `~/.keysat/filebrowser.env`
  and `/data/keysat-license.txt` outside the repo.

## Memory references

Operator-specific memories at `~/.claude/projects/-Users-macpro-Projects-licensing-Licensing/memory/`
(scan before a major change): `keysat_release_workflow.md`,
`no_unauthorized_copy_changes.md`, `keysat_admin_ui_pill_convention.md`,
`startos_lxc.md`, `startos_registry_icon_unrenderable.md`, `keysat_open_threads.md`.

## Open TODOs

- Extend `publish.sh` to build + upload aarch64 (arm builds fine; only x86 ships
  today), or narrow the manifest's arch claim. `riscv` target unverified.
- StartOS Community Registry submission criteria — Start9 hasn't published the
  checklist; reach out directly when ready.
- Registry icon doesn't render in the StartOS marketplace (see `guides/startos-packaging.md`).

## Current state (2026-06-12)

- **Live**: operator's server `immense-voyage.local` runs daemon `0.2.0:52`
  (installed from `:45`; migrations 0020–0022 applied). Registry
  `registry.keysat.xyz` still publishes `:45` — `:52` built/installed but **not
  published**. Four SDKs published; `keysat.xyz` + `docs.keysat.xyz` deployed.
- **`:52` = multi-provider/merchant-profile model**: data model + backend
  resolution shipped and audited sound. **Deferred (parked):** four UIs (buy-page
  rail picker, product-edit profile picker, per-profile SMTP form, rail-preference
  editor) and the `unlimited_merchant_profiles` master-policy entitlement. See
  `docs/guides/payments.md`.
- **Open bug fix not yet shipped**: a purchase-path SQL bug (ambiguous column,
  broke every paid purchase on `:52`) is **fixed in the working tree but
  uncommitted**, so prod `:52` is still broken until a `:53` rebuild+reinstall. No
  live buyers yet, so not urgent. Working tree also has the test compile-fixes, a
  new query-audit test, the manifest license fix, and an unused-import removal —
  all uncommitted. See `docs/guides/payments.md` and `docs/guides/testing.md`.
