**Precompiled arch binaries (Phase 2):** `install.sh` picks the source folder from the machine architecture — `x86_64` → `x64_bin/`, `aarch64`/`arm64` → `arm64_bin/` (added later) — and copies every file in it to `/usr/local/bin/` (755). These are manually-compiled tools not available as internet builds (currently `create_ap`, `wihotspot`, `wihotspot-gui`). Dropping an `arm64_bin/` folder later needs no code change.
**Feature block (Phase 2, only with `--feature`):** for every file in `features/` it copies it to `/usr/local/bin/<name>`. If the destination already exists it asks **"Overwrite existing …? [y/N]"** (default keeps your file), then always sets the feature flag via `flag_set` (name derived as `<filename without .sh>`).

## x64_bin/ — precompiled binaries
**Folder:** `x64_bin/` (future: `arm64_bin/`)
**Purpose:** manually-compiled tools that are **not available as prebuilt binaries on the internet**. `install.sh` copies them verbatim into `/usr/local/bin/` on the matching architecture (see [install.sh — the orchestrator](#installsh--the-orchestrator)).
### Contents
| File | Type | Purpose | Runtime deps |
|------|------|---------|--------------|
| `create_ap` | bash script | Create a Wi-Fi access point from the CLI (NAT/Internet sharing) | `hostapd`, `dnsmasq`, `iptables`, `iw` (in `preinstall.sh`) |
| `wihotspot` | POSIX wrapper | Launches `wihotspot-gui` (path points at `/usr/local/bin/`) | — |
| `wihotspot-gui` | ELF x86-64 | GTK3 GUI for the hotspot (QR code via libqrencode) | `libgtk-3-0`, `libqrencode4` |
### Configuration
- Managed through the `pos network hotspot` command (see [POS.md → network](POS.md#network)): `hotspot` launches the GUI; `start`/`stop`/`status` wrap `create_ap`.
- Add a future `arm64_bin/` folder with the same filenames and it is installed automatically on `aarch64` machines — no `install.sh` change needed.
