The archive host creates a ready marker in the store and swarm-controller
writes no credentials before it exists, so a swarm without an archive, and a
mixed-version swarm, leave every hive backup a logged no-op. A hive with no
declaration no longer counts as placing nothing: its copies and its agents'
user lines stay. The restic password is pinned by tests across a revoke, a
re-placement and a move.
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.
The agent's settings get a claude login row: when the swarm stored the
login, read by the minter from the leaf's metadata, or that none is, with a
delete that removes every version after a confirmation. New minter steps
(status, delete), controller routes (GET claude-login, DELETE
claude-login/stored) and a read and delete grant on the leaf's metadata,
pinned in the module-eval check.
a re-created cache signs with a new key; the fact was only created once, so
every hive then rejected the swarm's closures. the cache's grant gains update
on that one leaf, and a store that refuses it leaves the key as it was.
Closes#6181
Every docs directory moves under 1-getting-started, 2-handbook,
4-implementation or 5-project; the options reference (section 3) comes from
the website and has no directory here. trust-boundary stays whole under the
handbook for now. web-ui, swarm and tools split between handbook and
implementation, and the command-line references move to
2-handbook/reference. Links, path references in code and nix, and the docs
index follow the moves; no page content changes.
