End-to-end VM test today (2026-04-15) validated the resource manager
golden path but exposed four things blocking "dein-Vater-tauglich":
no way to configure an app without SSH+editor, no openssh, no nano,
keyboard stuck on US, and a samba healthcheck that cried wolf.
Resource-manager side:
- Manifest schema gains optional `settings` list (name/label/
description/type/required/default) and `description_long`.
- Bundled-app install opens a form rendered from the manifest;
submit carries values to `POST /api/apps/install` which writes
them into the new app's `.env` before the placeholder check runs.
- Installed apps grow an "Einstellungen" button that merges a
partial settings dict into the existing `.env` (unsubmitted
password fields = keep current), then reconciles to restart.
- New endpoints: `GET/POST /api/apps/<name>/settings`. Passwords
are never returned to the client.
- Fileshare manifest declares its SMB_USER/SMB_PASSWORD settings
in German with help text.
ISO side (so the next build is actually usable on the TTY):
- Add `openssh` to the package list + `sshd` to enabled services.
`archinstall: true` in 4.x did not install openssh-server.
- Add `nano` — `vim` was the only editor pitched at users, which
is brutal for first-timers (and was missing anyway).
- Keyboard layout follows the installer language (`de→de`, `pl→pl`,
`en→us`) instead of hardcoded `us`. A German user couldn't type
`/` or `-` at the console, making even `sudo nano` painful.
- Disable the dperson/samba healthcheck in the compose override —
it timed out on every probe while the share itself worked fine.
19 new tests (manifest parsing + settings-merge + two new API
endpoints over live HTTP); 94 total, format + lint clean.

Closes the loop end-to-end. The ISO build now bundles the furtka/
package and the apps/ tree as a tarball; webinstaller hands it to
archinstall via custom_commands; the installed system gets the
`furtka` CLI, a boot-scan systemd unit, and the fileshare app
ready to install.
- iso/build.sh: stages furtka/ + apps/ into a tmpdir, drops
__pycache__, tarballs into airootfs/opt/furtka-resource-manager.tar.gz.
- webinstaller/app.py: _resource_manager_commands() reads the staged
payload at request-time, base64-encodes it into a single untar
command, and writes /usr/local/bin/furtka (PYTHONPATH wrapper, no
pip needed) + furtka-reconcile.service. Python pacstrapped so the
wrapper has an interpreter.
- Graceful degradation: dev box / CI without an ISO build has no
payload tarball, so those commands are skipped (logs a warning).
Tests cover both branches.
- furtka-reconcile.service is conditionally enabled only if the unit
file actually landed — keeps the systemctl enable line green when
the payload was absent.
- apps/fileshare/: first real Furtka app. dperson/samba on host
network, single named volume, .env.example with placeholder creds.
Manifest matches the schema locked in slice 1.
