D01-RT: Yes
Rationale
Reticulum documents normal-user Python operation. For the selected standalone SerialInterface, provision ordinary read/write permission on the serial device and keep the configuration directory user-owned; subsequent rnsd/Link operation needs no root or networking capability. No privileged radio or shared-IP helper is added.
Assessment method
Specification/source/dependency analysis; no new runtime execution
Source context
Primary documentation and explicitly selected composition; documentary review 2026-10-15
Outstanding qualification
Serial-device ACL/group setup may require an administrator. Pin the actual distribution and driver in any live acceptance test; this is a documentary Linux serial witness.
