cfg_read_secret is invoked via $() inside _cfg_edit_one, so the echo that advanced the cursor after hidden input landed on the capture pipe instead of the terminal — every secret value stored with pos config on a real TTY got a leading newline (e.g. AI_GEMINI_API_KEY="\n<key>"), which neither cfg_value nor the ai/telegram load_config parsers could read back: the menu showed '(not set)' and pos ai gemini kept demanding a key. Fix: send that newline to stderr (>&2). Defense in depth: cfg_write and write_config_key now strip CR and truncate multi-line pastes, and the readers (cfg_value, ai + telegram load_config) strip CR. Reproduced and verified on a pseudo-TTY; piped-stdin tests never caught it because non-TTY input skips the stty/echo path.
Documentation
Everything in this folder is reference material for the Linux_post_install project. The root README is the short intro + quick start; this folder holds the detail.

|---|---|
| HOWTO.md | Hands-on guides per category (ai, network, docker, media, system, ssh, usb, communication, entertainment): flags, recipes, config, troubleshooting |
| SCRIPTS.md | Core installer scripts: install.sh, preinstall.sh, postinstall.sh, lib/common.sh, lib/flags.sh, lib/entertainment-lib.sh, features/autostart.sh — purpose, how each works, configuration |
| POS.md | The pos CLI: dispatcher, every pos-* command, Docker Compose / ScaleTail config, legacy wrappers, flag CLIs |
| APPS.md | Optional apps: apps/install.sh picker, installer conventions, full app catalog |
| SYSTEMD.md | Systemd units (autostart.service, ssh-agent.service), feature-flag gating, bash completion |
