+# Edge deployment (Raspberry Pi 5, air-gapped / 폐쇄망)
+
+Offline-installable bundle + systemd unit for the `move-detect` edge daemon.
+The bundle is fully self-contained (all wheels + pose model + source): the Pi
+performs **zero network fetches** at install or run time. The only runtime
+network use is the cloud POST / config-poll / heartbeat, and even that tolerates
+being offline (events buffer in the local sqlite queue and flush on reconnect).
+
+> Scope: this covers the **CPU MoveNet + USB (UVC) webcam** path — the one the
+> daemon wires today (`edge/daemon.py:main`) and the one verified end-to-end.
+> Hailo-8 acceleration (`edge/adapters/hailo_pose.py`) and the CSI camera
+> (`edge/adapters/picamera_source.py`) are separate device-validated paths — see
+> `docs/hardware-bringup.md`.
+
+## Files
+
+| File | Runs on | Purpose |
+|------|---------|---------|
+| `bundle/build_offline_bundle.sh` | build machine (has internet) | downloads wheels + model, stages source, emits one tarball |
+| `bundle/install_offline.sh` | the Pi (no internet) | venv + `--no-index` install, systemd unit, service account |
+| `systemd/move-detect-edge.service` | the Pi | the daemon unit (auto-restart, device access, hardening) |
+| `systemd/move-detect-edge.env.example` | the Pi | env template → `/etc/move-detect/edge.env` |
+
+## 1. Build the bundle (on a machine WITH internet)
+
+**Most reliable: build on an aarch64 host** (a Pi 5, or an arm64 CI runner) so the
+downloaded wheels match the target exactly:
+
+```bash
+deploy/bundle/build_offline_bundle.sh            # native aarch64 wheels
+```
+
+From an x86 box you can attempt a cross build (best-effort — onnxruntime/opencv
+wheel tags may not resolve; if it fails, build natively):
+
+```bash
+deploy/bundle/build_offline_bundle.sh --cross    # target aarch64 / cp311
+```
+
+Output: `dist/move-detect-edge-bundle-aarch64-cp311.tar.gz` (+ `MANIFEST.txt`
+listing the bundled wheels). This single file crosses the air gap.
+
+## 2. Transfer + install (on the air-gapped Pi)
+
+Copy the tarball across the gap (USB, one-way transfer, etc.), then:
+
+```bash
+tar xzf move-detect-edge-bundle-aarch64-cp311.tar.gz
+cd move-detect-edge-bundle
+sudo ./install_offline.sh
+```
+
+The installer: creates the `movedetect` service account (in `video`/`render`/
+`plugdev`/`hailo` groups), lays down source + model under `/opt/move-detect`,
+builds a venv and installs the bundled wheels with `--no-index`, verifies the
+package imports, seeds `/etc/move-detect/edge.env`, and installs the systemd unit.
+
+## 3. Configure + start
+
+```bash
+sudo nano /etc/move-detect/edge.env      # DEVICE_ID, DEVICE_SECRET, CAFE24_URL, ...
+sudo systemctl enable --now move-detect-edge
+journalctl -u move-detect-edge -f
+```
+
+`DEVICE_ID`/`DEVICE_SECRET` must match a `devices` row in the cloud (see
+`cloud/docs/cloud-deploy.md` §6). `MOVENET_ONNX` should point at the bundled
+model (`/opt/move-detect/models/movenet_lightning.onnx`).
+
+## 4. Verify the air gap (do this before trusting a build)
+
+- [ ] On a host with **networking disabled**, `install_offline.sh` completes —
+      the `--no-index` installs prove nothing is fetched. If pip tries to reach
+      PyPI, a wheel is missing from the bundle: rebuild (step 1) natively.
+- [ ] Step [4/6] of the installer prints `edge import OK` (onnxruntime + cv2 +
+      numpy + requests all import from the venv).
+- [ ] `systemctl status move-detect-edge` is `active (running)`; the log shows
+      frames processed and (if the cloud is reachable) heartbeats.
+- [ ] Pull the network cable → events keep queueing (`QUEUE_DB` grows) → restore
+      → the queue flushes. (End-to-end behavior verified in the edge e2e harness.)
+
+## Not bundled (by design)
+
+- **MySQL / the cloud app** — a separate host; see `cloud/docs/cloud-deploy.md`.
+- **HailoRT + `yolov8s_pose.hef`** — the Hailo runtime and HEF are installed via
+  Hailo's own Pi packages; the CPU MoveNet path here needs neither.

+# Build a fully self-contained, offline-installable bundle for the move-detect
+# edge daemon (air-gapped / 폐쇄망 target — see rules/common/build-deployment.md).
+#
+# Run this on a BUILD machine that HAS internet. The resulting tarball carries
+# every runtime wheel + the pose model + the edge source + the systemd unit, so
+# the air-gapped Pi installs with ZERO network fetches (see install_offline.sh).
+#
+# RELIABILITY NOTE: onnxruntime and opencv publish per-architecture wheels. The
+# most reliable build is a NATIVE one — run this ON an aarch64 host (a Pi 5, or
+# an arm64 CI runner) so pip downloads wheels for the exact target. Cross-downloading
+# aarch64 wheels from an x86 box (--cross) is best-effort and can miss a wheel whose
