docs(maestro): unified-config rollover in installer + INSTALL + spec (NAP-233)
- Installer: check for a `[daemon]` section in the unified file (rather
  than the existence of the now-defunct `~/.config/maestrod/config.toml`)
  to decide whether to skip the configure prompt on re-runs. The
  configure prompt + maestrod_config_path() helper now reference
  `~/.config/maestro/config.toml`.
- docs/INSTALL.md: mention the unified file and the single-TOML shape.
- spec: update §Registry / §Daemon / §Auth to call out
  `[registry].bind_addr`, `[daemon].bind_addr`, `[shared].registry_url`,
  and `[shared].token` instead of the old per-app files.

Installing Maestro

The repo is private, so grab install.sh while signed in to gitea, then run it:

  1. Open https://git.naps.pt/naps62/maestro/src/branch/main/install.sh, click Raw, save as install.sh. Or from any existing clone:
    git show origin/main:install.sh > install.sh
    
  2. Run it:
    chmod +x install.sh && ./install.sh
    

The bootstrap script builds maestro-installer into a temp directory, runs the wizard, and cleans up — only maestrod and maestro end up persisted in ~/.cargo/bin.

Updating is the same command. Re-running ./install.sh detects an existing [daemon] section in ~/.config/maestro/config.toml and an existing systemd unit, skips the configure prompt, refreshes the unit, and runs systemctl --user restart maestrod instead of start. No --update flag needed.

Inside the script, cargo install --git https://git.naps.pt/naps62/maestro … uses your already-configured git credentials for this host (HTTPS helper or SSH agent). If only SSH is set up:

MAESTRO_REPO_URL=ssh://git@git.naps.pt/naps62/maestro ./install.sh

Pass flags through to the wizard after ./install.sh:

./install.sh --yes --no-systemd

The wizard:

  1. Runs cargo install for maestro-daemon and maestro-cli (pinned to the committed Cargo.lock via --locked).
  2. Optionally runs maestrod configure to populate ~/.config/maestro/config.toml (one shared TOML for maestrod, maestro-registry, and the maestro CLI).
  3. On systemd hosts, optionally writes a user unit at ~/.config/systemd/user/maestrod.service, reloads systemd, and offers to enable + start it.

Both binaries land in ~/.cargo/bin — make sure that's on your $PATH.

Flags

Flag Purpose
--git <url> Install from a different git repo (default: this one).
--branch <name> Pin a branch with --git.
--path <dir> Install from a local workspace checkout (--path + -p <crate>).
--no-locked Drop --locked from cargo install (resolves a fresh dep tree).
--exec-start <path> Override the systemd unit's ExecStart (default ~/.cargo/bin/maestrod).
--no-systemd Skip the systemd step even if detected.
--no-configure Skip the maestrod configure step.
-y, --yes Non-interactive: install binaries + drop systemd unit + reload + enable, but don't auto-run configure or auto-start the unit (those need real config).

What the systemd unit looks like

The wizard writes a user unit (systemctl --user), since maestrod runs per-user and uses tmux sockets under $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR. Body:

[Unit]
Description=Maestro per-host daemon (maestrod)
Documentation=https://git.naps.pt/naps62/maestro
After=network-online.target

[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=%h/.cargo/bin/maestrod
Restart=on-failure
RestartSec=5

[Install]
WantedBy=default.target

Check status / logs:

systemctl --user status maestrod
journalctl --user -u maestrod -f

Running the wizard without the bootstrap script

If you'd rather skip the script:

cargo install --git https://git.naps.pt/naps62/maestro maestro-installer
maestro-install

This leaves maestro-installer permanently in ~/.cargo/bin — the bootstrap script avoids that by installing to a scratch dir.

Fully manual install (no wizard)

cargo install --git https://git.naps.pt/naps62/maestro --locked maestro-daemon
cargo install --git https://git.naps.pt/naps62/maestro --locked maestro-cli
maestrod configure
maestrod          # foreground; or wire your own service manager

Non-Linux hosts

The wizard works on macOS for the cargo install + maestrod configure parts. The systemd step is automatically skipped (probe of /run/systemd/system). launchd integration is not yet supported — start maestrod from your shell or your own service manager.
