Run as the hub user after a spoke connects. Handles:
- SSH key generation and deployment to spoke
- rclone remote configuration (with trailing newline guard)
- Optional union remote setup with configurable upstream access mode (none, `:ro`, `:nc`, `:writeback`)
- Spoke registration in `~/.config/tinyboard/spokes`
#### Union Remote
During onboarding, the user is optionally prompted to add the spoke to an rclone union remote for redundancy. If multiple spokes share the same files (via Syncthing), a union remote merges them into a single path so that if one spoke goes offline, the other can serve the files. Each upstream can be configured with an access mode:
- `none` — full read/write (default)
- `:ro` — read only
- `:nc` — no create (read/write existing files, no new files)
- `:writeback` — writeback cache
The union remote is automatically updated when a spoke is offboarded.
### `hub/offboard-spoke.sh`
Run as the hub user to remove a spoke. Handles:
- Unmounting the spoke filesystem
- Crontab backup (timestamped to `~/.config/tinyboard/`) then entry removal
- Removing the rclone remote
- Removing the spoke from any union remotes in `rclone.conf`
- Optionally removing the hub SSH key
- Removing from the spoke registry
