Aminet Installer

Purpose

Manages the complete Aminet package installation pipeline: extraction of LhA and LZX archives using native tools, mapping extracted files to Amiga filesystem conventions (11 assigns), dependency detection from .readme metadata, install tracking with atomic manifest persistence, and scan gate enforcement ensuring packages are verified clean before installation.

Capabilities

• LhA extraction via lhasa with Zip-Slip path traversal prevention
• Volume prefix stripping for clean extraction paths
• 30-second extraction timeout for safety
• LZX extraction via unlzx with cwd workaround (no output dir flag)
• Tool validator with platform-specific install guidance (apt/brew)
• unlzx exit-code-2 detection for partial extraction handling
• Amiga filesystem mapping with 11 standard assigns (S:, C:, LIBS:, DEVS:, etc.)
• Case-insensitive assign lookup matching Amiga conventions
• Software/ default placement for unmapped paths
• placeFiles with SHA-256 tracking and temp directory cleanup
• 5 dependency types: package, os_version, hardware, library, unknown
• Dependency detection from .readme Requires: field
• Package deps cross-referenced against mirror state for availability
• Install tracker with atomic manifest persistence
• Slugified manifest filenames for cross-platform safety
• Uninstall with file removal and directory cleanup
• Scan gate enforcing INS-07 (refuse unscanned), INS-08 (refuse infected), INS-09 (suspicious override via confirmFn)
• installPackage orchestrator: gate -> extract -> place -> deps -> track -> state

Key Modules

Module	Purpose
src/aminet/lha-extractor.ts	LhA archive extraction via lhasa with Zip-Slip prevention
src/aminet/lzx-extractor.ts	LZX archive extraction via unlzx with cwd workaround
src/aminet/filesystem-mapper.ts	Maps extracted files to Amiga assigns (11 standard mappings)
src/aminet/dependency-detector.ts	Detects 5 dependency types from .readme Requires: field
src/aminet/install-tracker.ts	Atomic manifest persistence with install/uninstall tracking
src/aminet/scan-gate.ts	Enforces scan requirements before allowing installation

Usage Examples

Extract an LhA archive:

import { extractLha } from './lha-extractor.js';

const result = await extractLha(archivePath, { outputDir: './extracted', timeout: 30000 });
// result.files: extracted file paths with Zip-Slip protection

Map to Amiga filesystem:

import { placeFiles } from './filesystem-mapper.js';

const placed = await placeFiles(extractedFiles, {
  targetDir: './amiga-root',
  assigns: defaultAssigns,
});
// Files mapped to S:, C:, LIBS:, etc. with SHA-256 tracking

Install with scan gate:

import { installPackage } from './scan-gate.js';

const result = await installPackage(packagePath, {
  scanReport, // Must be clean or user-confirmed suspicious
  outputDir: './amiga-root',
  manifestDir: './manifests',
  confirmFn: async (msg) => promptUser(msg), // For suspicious overrides
});

Detect dependencies:

import { detectDependencies } from './dependency-detector.js';

const deps = detectDependencies(readmeText, mirrorState);
// deps: [{ type: 'package', name: 'util/libs/AHI.lha', available: true }, ...]

Dependencies

• lhasa CLI tool for LhA extraction (installed via system package manager)
• unlzx CLI tool for LZX extraction
• Tool validator provides platform-specific install guidance
• Aminet scanner (aminet-scanner skill) for scan gate integration
• Node.js node:crypto for SHA-256 file tracking
• Node.js node:child_process for tool execution

Token Budget Rationale

1.0% budget reflects the 6 modules covering extraction, filesystem mapping, dependencies, tracking, and scan gate. The installation pipeline is largely sequential and well-contained, requiring moderate context for the assign mapping and scan gate enforcement logic.
