v1.9.0

Important

Docker image consolidation — action required for existing operators

The two flavor-tagged images have been merged into one. If you're running from the GitHub registry, update your image reference and drop the flavor compose flag:

Before	After
ghcr.io/cashubtc/orchard-mintdb-sqlite:<ver>	ghcr.io/cashubtc/orchard:<ver>
ghcr.io/cashubtc/orchard-mintdb-postgres:<ver>	ghcr.io/cashubtc/orchard:<ver>
FLAVOR=sqlite | postgres in .env	(removed — no longer used)
-f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.sqlite.yml	-f docker-compose.yml (sqlite is now built in)

New Features

• NUT-21/22/29 support — Clear-auth, Blind-auth, and Batched-minting now visible in the mint config and info views.
• Mint watchdog status — Dashboard warns when the nutshell watchdog stops writing snapshots.

Changes

• Single Docker image — Replaces the two flavor-tagged images; SQLite vs Postgres is now picked from .env alone. See migration note above.
• Fail-fast startup — Missing MINT_DATABASE, missing SQLite file, or missing compose env vars now error with actionable messages.
• Fee analytics rework — Fee analytics are more accurate across supported mint configurations.
• Mint config nav polish — Shorter labels, dropped redundant Nut N subtitles.
• Supported version bumps — Bitcoin Core 30.0.0, lnd v0.20.0-beta, cln v25.12, tapd v0.7.0-alpha, ollama v0.23.2.
• Dependency bumps — express-rate-limit, hono, uuid, ip-address.

Bug Fixes

• Client UUID over plain HTTP — Fixes broken id generation in some deployment scenarios.
• Analytics accuracy — Per-keyset improvements, accurate tooltips, multi-unit CDK fees fix.
• Mint dashboard loading state — No longer sticks on failure.
• Activity charts — Now initialize correctly with signal-based inputs.
• Schema generation — generate:types no longer fails when DEV_AUTH_BYPASS=true.
• Missing locales + assorted UI bugs.

Testing

• E2E suite rebuilt — Parallelized across stacks (Playwright workers), new settings + oracle setup phases, helpers reorganized under @e2e/*.
• New e2e infra — sqlite-reader sidecar, perpetual block-miner, bolt11 generator, cadence activity simulator with unhappy-path injection.
• New e2e specs — mint info, config, activity, keysets, dashboard, database (backup/restore), balance sheet, bitcoin syncing, AI assistant; analytics matrix expanded to all units × intervals.
• Postgres image — bumped 16-alpine → 18-alpine.
