The Start9 registry card was still showing "Keysat — self-hosted
Bitcoin-paid software license server" while keysat.xyz now leads
with "Bitcoin-native self-hosted licensing service for software
creators." Operators landing on the registry from the marketing
site got a jarring tagline mismatch.
Aligned everywhere the old copy was hardcoded:
- startos/manifest/i18n.ts (short + long descriptions — these
drive the registry card)
- assets/ABOUT.md (in-StartOS About panel)
- README.md (root + licensing-service/)
- licensing-service/Cargo.toml description
Long description also picked up two updates that should have
landed when the features did but never made it into the marketing
copy:
- Zaprite mention (Bitcoin + cards) alongside BTCPay
- Recurring subscriptions + in-place tier upgrades
Pure copy change. No code, no behavior, no schema. Republishing as
:7 because the registry card text lives inside the .s9pk and
won't refresh on operators' boxes without a version bump.
Bump with notes covering the active_payment_provider preference,
the new Activate <provider> actions, and the symmetric Disconnect
handling.
Test count: 42.
Bump to v0.2.0:2 with notes covering Zaprite as second payment
provider, migration 0011 (recurring subs schema dormant), 0012
(zaprite_config). Test count 41.
Per operator feedback: the discount-code field on /buy/<slug> was
showing 'FOUNDERS50' as a placeholder, which confused buyers (some
tried it as a real code, some assumed Keysat shipped a default
discount). Empty placeholder now; buyers paste their actual code.
No semantic change. Wrapper-only revision; daemon binary unchanged
beyond the embedded HTML template.
Adds startos/versions/v0.2.0.ts as a draft milestone version entry,
ready to swap in as `current` when we're ready to cut. NOT yet wired
into the version graph at versions/index.ts — flipping that switch
is a release decision (one-line change there, then make x86 +
publish), and the draft sits parked so we can iterate on the
release-notes content without committing to the cut.
Format note: the SDK's VersionInfo.of() expects releaseNotes as a
LocaleString (Record<string, string>), not the string[] form
v0.1.0.ts uses. The new file uses the modern shape; v0.1.0.ts keeps
its existing form to avoid churn on the alpha line.
CUTTING_V0.2.0.md walks the operator (or future me) through the
4-step cutover: edit versions/index.ts to swap in v0_2_0, npm run
check, make x86, publish. Plus rollback notes if anything goes
sideways post-cut.
Why park rather than cut now:
1. The user said "prepare for the version 0.2 plumbing" — that's
"prepare" not "do". The cutover is intentional in the user's
workflow, not bundled into a routine push.
2. Cutover changes how the StartOS marketplace renders the upgrade
dialog to existing :N installs; best to QA the release-notes
content first.
3. SDK migration-API behavior on the upstream version bump is
worth verifying on a test install before flipping for everyone.
The v0.2.0 release notes themselves are written conservatively —
they describe what's already shipped and stable in the alpha line
through :47, not aspirational v0.3 features.
