* docs(headless-server): add upgrade SOP for orca serve on Linux The headless Linux guide covered install/run/systemd but had no upgrade section, leaving operators to guess how to move to a new AppImage without losing state. Add an "Upgrade" section documenting the manual SOP (serve mode never auto-updates) and one troubleshooting bullet: - State lives under the service user's ~/.config (orca + Orca dirs), independent of /opt/orca, and orca-data.json is forward-migrated on load, so a forward upgrade is safe. - Replace the binary with an atomic same-filesystem rename (download to .new, verify, mv) — never curl -o over the FUSE-mounted live binary. - Back up the whole .config before upgrading, because rollback is NOT binary-only safe: an older build strips newer orca-data.json fields it doesn't recognize, and the .bak.* ring is corruption-recovery, not a pre-upgrade copy. - Note there is no headless version command; track the release tag instead. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(headless-server): harden the orca serve upgrade/rollback runbook Address CodeRabbit review on #9575: - Fail closed: run the upgrade block under `set -euo pipefail`, remove any stale `.new` file before download, and gate the atomic `mv` on an explicit ELF check so a failed/partial/non-ELF download can never be promoted. - Keep /opt/orca/VERSION tied to the installed binary: a single `TAG` variable drives both the download URL and the recorded VERSION, saved as VERSION.prev on upgrade and restored on rollback so the audit file never drifts. - Crash-loop troubleshooting now points to Roll back first (restores the pre-upgrade orca-data.json) instead of re-running Upgrade.
