@ -8,6 +8,7 @@ Tools (hyperhive surface):
- `mcp__hyperhive__ask(question, options?, multi?, ttl_seconds?, to?)` — surface a structured question to the human operator (default, or `to: "operator"`) OR a peer agent (`to: "<agent-name>"`). Returns immediately with a question id — do NOT wait inline. When the recipient answers, a system message with event `question_answered { id, question, answer, answerer }` lands in your inbox; handle it on a future turn. Use this for clarifications, permission for risky actions, choice between options, or peer Q&A without burning regular inbox slots. `options` is advisory: a short fixed-choice list when applicable, otherwise leave empty for free text. `multi: true` lets the answerer pick multiple (checkboxes), answer comes back comma-joined. `ttl_seconds` auto-cancels with answer `[expired]` (and `answerer: "ttl-watchdog"`) when the decision becomes moot.
- `mcp__hyperhive__answer(id, answer)` — answer a question that was routed to YOU. You'll see one in your inbox as a `question_asked { id, asker, question, options, multi }` system event when a peer or the manager calls `ask(to: "<your-name>", ...)`. The answer surfaces in the asker's inbox as a `question_answered` event. Strict authorisation: you can only answer questions where you are the declared target.
- `mcp__hyperhive__get_open_threads()` — list your loose ends: unanswered questions where you're asker (waiting on someone) or target (owing a reply). No args, cheap server-side sweep. Useful at turn start to remember what's outstanding without scanning inbox archaeology.
- `mcp__hyperhive__whoami()` — self-introspection: returns your canonical agent name (from socket identity, not the prompt-substituted label), role, operator pronouns, and current hyperhive rev. No args. Use it when you want a trustworthy identity stamp for state files, commit messages, or cross-agent attribution that won't drift across renames.
Need new packages, env vars, or other NixOS config for yourself? You can't edit your own config directly — message the manager (recipient `manager`) describing what you need + why. The manager evaluates the request (it doesn't rubber-stamp), edits `/agents/{label}/config/agent.nix` on your behalf, commits, and submits an approval that the operator can accept on the dashboard; on approve hive-c0re rebuilds your container with the new config.
