The page says who is on the roster, who may reach whose state and that the
manager is a normal agent. How topology.json is read and rebuilt, the wire
protocol and the prompt blocks move to 4-implementation/agent-state/roster.md,
unchanged, since the code they describe still exists.
The queue subjects, scratch directory and stdio steps of a login, the harness's
newer-version rule, the minter's grants, the caveat and the metrics move to
4-implementation/swarm/claude-login.md. The handbook page keeps how to log an agent
in, the stored login and who may do it. Design pointers in the nix module, the
crate README and AGENTS.md name the new page.
system.md carries {{ label }}-style variables and an {% if not archetype %} block in place of the config:repo / config:archetype marker pairs, so prompt.rs drops its line filter, marker parsers and string replaces. The rendered prompt is byte for byte the old one for a custom agent, an archetype agent and an empty archetype name, with and without hive, swarm, docs and operators. hive-template now drops a block tag's own line.
The page-by-page and control-by-control description of the swarm UI moves to
4-implementation/web-ui/swarm-ui.md, with the quick-links wiring. The handbook
page keeps the route table, how to reach the UI, who may and what the browser
keeps. Links to the moved sections point at the new page.
A todo node's key and text were hand-expanded `{field}` strings. They are now Jinja templates rendered through the new hive-template crate (minijinja, an unknown variable is an error), and the controller's save check reads the variables the template uses. The flows document is version 2; a version 1 document reads as version 2 with each `{field}` converted to `{{ field }}`, and the next save writes it.
The hive dashboard and the per-agent page lose their control-by-control UI
description and endpoint tables from the handbook. The full text moves to
4-implementation/web-ui/dashboard.md and agent-page.md, and the handbook pages
keep what an operator needs to find and use them. Code comments that named the
old sections point at the new pages.
credentials.md drops the target-shape framing and keeps the rules, where a
secret lives, the swarm- and hive-level secrets and how to add one. The queue
responder's keys, per-principal identities, how a reader reaches the store, the
store UI's login and where the root lives move to
4-implementation/swarm/credentials.md. The per-secret reference moves to
4-implementation/swarm/credentials-reference.md. Links and comments follow.
The operator parts of the persistence and config-changes pages merge into
agents/persistence.md. The sqlite tables, state dirs, mounts and migrations move
to 4-implementation/agent-state/persistence.md, and the deploy path, meta flake,
deploy markers, startup migrations, root container, system messages and
autoupdate move to 4-implementation/agent-state/config-changes.md. Links, code
comments and nix comments that named the old sections point at the new pages.
Account minting, knowledge sync, the archetype refresh, the matrix appservice
flow and the SSO secret delivery move to pages under 4-implementation/swarm.
Each handbook page keeps what an operator does or sees, with a pointer.
failures_only (off by default, also for a stored document without it) makes the
review the classifier posts on a PR list just the rows that failed their rule,
or say that no check failed on an approval. A review with no clean verdict and
a try-out keep every row. The classifier settings form gets a checkbox for it.
The controller's status, queue, AGENTS.md and forge-webhook details move to
4-implementation/swarm/controller.md. The metrics, logs and OTEL detail moves to
4-implementation/swarm/telemetry.md. Each leaves a short operator blurb with the
options to touch, and links into the moved text are updated.
swarm-archive serves restic repositories with rclone, append-only, one login
and one repository per agent. swarm-controller writes each placed agent's
login and restic password to the store, replaces them on a move and removes
them when the agent is destroyed. Every hive backs its agents up hourly under
its own store identity. The archive host prunes by retention.
Three handbook pages carried sections an operator never reads, named after
source paths and build internals. They move to pages under 4-implementation,
and each handbook page keeps a short pointer.
- forge.md: the notification poller (what it polls, how it formats,
de-duplicates and marks notifications read) is now
agent-tools/forge-notify.md. The forge page keeps a short Notifications
section.
- matrix.md: the retired hive-side matrix code, the evaluation assertions and
the fluffychat-web build fixes are now networking/matrix-homeserver.md.
- github.md: the Implementation section (how `gh` and `git push`
authenticate, and the GitHub poller) is now agent-tools/github.md.
docs/README.md and the agent-tools README list the new pages, and AGENTS.md's
note on mixed operator and implementation docs now says to move the detail
and leave a pointer.
