I assume its files are made into an archive with cpio and compressed with xz..
But what are the exact cpio and xz commands used to make and compress Kiosk's initrd.xz?
How is Kiosk's initrd made exactly?

Create a working directory at /tmp/unpacked and change into it then issue:
xz -d < initrd.xz | cpio -i
You can repack with this:
find | cpio -H newc -o | xz --check=crc32 --x86 --lzma2 > /tmp/initrd.xz
xz -d < initrd.xz | cpio -i
You can repack with this:
find | cpio -H newc -o | xz --check=crc32 --x86 --lzma2 > /tmp/initrd.xz
