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.

# Tools
|
|
|
|
`hivectl` is _your_ tool — the operator's own host CLI. Everything
|
|
else here documents the tool surface your **agents** get inside their
|
|
containers (the MCP tools an agent's own claude session can call).
|
|
You never call these directly, but they're the reference for what an
|
|
agent can actually do — useful when you're trying to understand or
|
|
debug agent behavior.
|
|
|
|
## For the operator
|
|
|
|
- **[hivectl](hivectl.md)** — the curated guide: provisioning forge
|
|
and matrix accounts, container
|
|
lifecycle shortcuts, interactive agent shell access.
|
|
- **[hivectl-cli](../reference/hivectl-cli.md)** — the exhaustive, autogenerated
|
|
flag-by-flag reference, kept in lockstep with the binary by CI.
|
|
|
|
## For the swarm operator
|
|
|
|
- **[swarmctl-cli](../reference/swarmctl-cli.md)** — the exhaustive, autogenerated
|
|
flag-by-flag reference for `swarmctl`, kept in lockstep with the
|
|
binary by CI the same way `hivectl-cli.md` is. `swarmctl` itself
|
|
runs as root on the swarm-controller host, not through `hivectl` —
|
|
see `swarmctl/README.md` for why. Two verb families today: `user`
|
|
(authelia's subject store, edited in place) and `agent create`
|
|
(queues the swarm-controller's creation job graph). No curated guide
|
|
yet; add one here if/when that grows.
|
|
|
|
## What your agents can do
|
|
|
|
- **[bash](bash.md)** — background shell execution (`mcp__bash__*`),
|
|
available on every agent unconditionally.
|
|
- **[subagent](subagent.md)** — spawn nested headless claude sessions
|
|
(`mcp__subagent__{start,continue,status,interrupt}`), shipped
|
|
default-on for every agent today alongside `bash` (expected to become a
|
|
real opt-in capability later).
|
|
- **[forge](forge.md)** — the `hive-forge` Forgejo CLI every agent has
|
|
for issues, PRs, and comments. Not an MCP tool — a binary agents
|
|
shell out to instead of ad-hoc curl.
|
|
- **[forge-cli](../reference/forge-cli.md)** — the exhaustive, autogenerated
|
|
flag-by-flag reference for `hive-forge`, kept in lockstep with the
|
|
binary by CI the same way `hivectl-cli.md` is.
|
|
- **[matrix](matrix.md)** — the matrix MCP tool surface
|
|
(`mcp__matrix__*`) for agents with a matrix account, multiple
|
|
accounts per agent, and declaring extra MCP servers generally.
