Keysat 5cda84a7c0 Handoff: capture install-verify gotcha + config-placement convention
Docs-only: packaging guide notes start-cli install is silent on success (verify
with installed-version/logs); AGENTS.md adds the operational-toggles-in-the-admin-
panel convention and tightens the digest Current state.

StartOS packaging & deploy

Read this before building or installing the s9pk. Live target is start9/0.4/.

Bump the version FIRST — every build

Start9 0.4.x ignores a same-version rebuild (the install silently does nothing). Before make:

  1. Edit PACKAGE_VERSION in start9/0.4/startos/utils.ts.
  2. Add start9/0.4/startos/versions/v0.1.0.NN.ts.
  3. Register it in start9/0.4/startos/versions/index.ts: import it, set it as current, and move the prior current into other[].

Build (x86_64 only)

cd start9/0.4 && make        # -> ten-database_x86_64.s9pk

Install — PRODUCTION

start-cli package install -s ten-database_x86_64.s9pk   # target host = $START9_BOX_HOST
  • $START9_BOX_HOST resolves from your local start-cli context config — the real hostname is not in this repo.
  • install prints nothing on success (an empty log is normal, not a failure — and ${PIPESTATUS} is a bash-ism, empty under this repo's zsh). Verify the deploy instead with:
    start-cli package installed-version ten-database   # expect the version you just built
    start-cli package logs ten-database --limit 60     # expect server up on :8080 + a clean migration chain
    
  • Get explicit user authorization before any production deploy/install. Verify a new migration against a copy of data/crm.db first, never the box's DB.
