released this

Setup- and monitoring-experience polish. No change to the node itself; already-synced nodes are
unaffected.What's new
--watchbehaves properly end to end. While the node replays the block_log (before the RPC
answers),--watchnow shows a live braille spinner, a "take a break — your CPU will be busy for
a few hours" message, and a live (block N of ~N) readout pulled from the node's own logs. Once
the RPC is up it shows the catch-up percentage. And the moment the node is fully synced,--watch
prints a confirmation and returns you to the prompt automatically — no more sitting on a static
screen waiting to press Ctrl-C.- Suggested commands are copy-paste runnable. End-of-setup hints (and the "check progress" /
"not running yet" messages) print the full absolute path the installer was launched from —
e.g.bash /home/you/hidden-rpc/installer/hidden-rpc-setup.sh --status— with a trailing
# commentso pasting the whole line still runs. - The empty snapshot download folder is removed after the download is unpacked and deleted
(viarmdir, which only deletes an already-empty directory).
Minimum requirements
-
Operating system: 64-bit Linux in the Debian / Ubuntu / Linux Mint family (anything that uses
apt). Tested on Linux Mint 22 and Ubuntu 24.04; other recent Debian-based distros should work. -
Architecture: amd64 / x86_64 (a standard 64-bit PC). ARM is not supported yet.
-
Memory: ~4 GB RAM minimum (the node itself uses about 3 GB); 8 GB is comfortable.
-
Free disk space: about 100 GB for a first-time setup (the download plus the state the node
rebuilds while replaying); far less on later runs. An SSD is strongly recommended — the
one-time replay is dramatically faster on an SSD than on a spinning hard drive. -
Internet: a normal broadband connection. A serving node keeps a clearnet peer-to-peer
connection on port 1776 to stay in sync; only the RPC reads are hidden over Tor and I2P. -
Time: the one-time trustless replay re-verifies every block and keeps the CPU busy for several
hours on first setup. After that the node keeps up on its own with negligible load. -
Installed automatically if missing: Docker, Tor, i2pd, and a few small command-line tools — no
manual setup required. -
