The way it works is that there’s a hidden plist file on the USB drive that references a macOS + application on the drive; if this file is present, the USB drive will show up in the power-button-held boot menu, and when selected, it will run the application.

The installer doesn’t even need to be graphical since + it’s possible for the launched shell script to start the recovery environment’s Terminal and giving it an arbitrary command to run. +07:59 < VinDuv> This is also not limited to external USB drives; it also works if the files are in an APFS volume in internal storage, which I guess might be useful to have a Asahi Recovery boot option in the boot menu or something.
