It's a through axle / maxle like on any modern suspension fork.

sussed it. axle pushes in, silver thing screws on axle, qr snaps shut and silver thing needs backing off a touch to take up play.

what a shit design in comparison to a proper maxle what screw into the opposite fork leg.

Ah, right. Boost Rebas have a standard type Maxle. It's not Boost that's the issue here, it's the variety of through axle fittings.
