4dd5093c6f docs(3167): the setup guide gains a swarm UI step, and one group name
Per mara on the PR: the guide someone follows on a fresh deploy is a
different page from the one they read while debugging, and only the
second existed.

Also fixes a contradiction the request surfaced: setup.md and
swarm/sso.md have told every operator to create '--group admins' since
the bootstrap step existed, while the new rule required 'operators'.
This is the first rule that CONSUMES a group name, so it takes the one
the guide already creates - inventing a second would have meant every
account made by following the guide silently failing the check it was
supposed to pass, and for mara specifically a migration step that now
may not be needed at all.

setup.md's step 3 says why --group is not decoration; the new step 4
says what decides whether the page opens (the group, and the name
resolving) rather than listing a command, because there is nothing to
run. Steps renumbered, including the matrix block's internal 4a-4e.

470d2ad845 docs(3167): the swarm UI page, and the group step that gates it
New docs/swarm/ui.md (split-page shape, per the docs rule), linked from
the swarm README and added to the gateway's vhost map.

Leads with the step that separates 'protected' from 'locked out':
swarmctl user add <you> --group operators. auth_request asks whether
there is a session; the access_control rule is what makes it mean
operator, and an account created before the rule existed has no groups.

Also records the four wiring sites a swarm service name needs, with the
certificate one called out - serviceDomains is both the sub-CA's
nameConstraints set and the leaf's SANs, and the apex is a sibling of
the other three rather than a parent, so nothing issues for it
implicitly.

3c262b6c1b docs: rename docs/components to docs/crates
The generated landing page's own H1 already said "Crate reference" —
the directory name should match. Rename docs/components/ -> docs/crates/
and update the generating derivation (nix/packages/reference-docs.nix),
its default.nix caller comment, and docs/README.md's link.

Fixes #3193

0e1a975f9f fix(3179): the gateway's config files get their own state dir
`agents.conf` and `gateway.htpasswd` move from /var/lib/hyperhive/gateway
to /var/lib/hive-gateway/conf, alongside the `tls/` the gateway already
kept there.

nginx reads both as an unprivileged user. Under c0re's state dir it could
only reach them by traversing a directory systemd re-declares `0750
hive-core` on every c0re start — so nginx was given `SupplementaryGroups
= [ "hive-core" ]`, which also handed it read access to everything else
group-readable in that tree. The tokens are individually 0600, but the
broker sqlite carries no explicit mode: every message between every agent
was readable by the process whose job is parsing untrusted network input.

Moving the files removes the need and the exposure together. The group is
gone, and its absence is now commented as load-bearing so it doesn't come
back as a fix for a symptom it would recreate.

Also drops this module's `/var/lib/hyperhive` tmpfiles rule. It declared
`0755 root root` and could never win against `StateDirectoryMode`, and a
losing declaration still reads as a guarantee — that is what sent the
first diagnosis of the outage looking for who had changed the mode.

Ordering is unchanged and still the thing that makes a fresh boot work:
tmpfiles runs before services and seeds both files empty-but-valid, nginx
names them (an `include` of a missing file is fatal, not empty), and
content arrives when c0re writes and reloads — which it does on every
topology change, so a boot against the empty seed resolves itself.

Folds in the mode fix: `write` now sets 0644 on the tmp file before the
rename, because a rename carries the source's mode and discards the
destination's, and the tmpfiles rule that declares 0644 is
create-if-absent so it never re-applies.

ac15c68cd2 docs(3189): the error-page scope text describes the new shape
Two claims this branch falsified and left standing, both caught in
review:

`vhosts.nix`'s `errorPages` param comment enumerated the set
(`{ notFound, unreachable, unauthorized }`) and adding a fourth member
made the enumeration wrong at the point a reader consults it.

`gateway.md` said extending custom error pages beyond the per-agent
routes was "a separate follow-up" — while this branch is that follow-up,
so the doc contradicted the code sitting next to it.

Rewrites the scope rule as the criterion rather than a list, since a
list is what went stale: a route earns a page when the default status
would point at the wrong component. That covers the per-agent routes and
the sso vhost, and explains why forge/matrix/fluffychat still don't
qualify — their upstreams being down means what the code says.

a2ea91afe2 docs(3186): the setup walkthrough gains the swarm SSO bootstrap
`setup.md` is the page someone follows on a fresh deploy, and it had no
step for authelia at all — so the operator finished the walkthrough with
a crash-looping container and a 502, having done everything the doc
asked. The warnings added to sso.md and gateway.md only help someone who
is already debugging; this is the page that decides whether they end up
debugging.

New step 3, gated on `swarm.authelia.enable`, placed before matrix
because it is part of getting the front door open. Says plainly that it
is required to finish the install, names the symptom it prevents, and
links sso.md for the detail rather than restating it.

Renumbers matrix (4), spawn (5) and host commands (6), including the
matrix block's own 3a–3e labels, which would otherwise disagree with
their heading.

014ae405e0 docs(3186): the first user is required to start authelia, not to log in
`swarm/sso.md` described the empty user store as a resting state — a
provider that is reachable but has nobody in it yet. It isn't. Authelia
validates the store at startup and treats zero users as fatal:

    error reading the authentication database: could not validate the
    schema: users: non zero value required

so it exits 1, systemd restarts it, and an enabled-but-unbootstrapped
swarm presents as a crash-looping container behind a vhost that is
working correctly. The observed symptom is `502 Bad Gateway`, which
reads as a proxy fault and is not one.

Says so, gives the error text to grep for, and marks the `swarmctl user
add` step as required to finish the install rather than as a first-login
convenience. `gateway.md` gains the same warning next to the vhost,
because that is where someone lands when the 502 is what they can see.

The reason the store ships empty is unchanged and still right: seeding
an account means a credential in a config file. What was wrong was
calling the resulting state harmless.

a92f7351d9 fix(3086): the hive leaf stops naming two services it already covered
`DNS:forge.<domain>` and `DNS:matrix.<domain>` sat beside
`DNS:*.<domain>`, which already covers them — a wildcard covers exactly
one label and those are one label. Naming them read as policy, and that
is why they outlived the thing they described: a configured service name
no longer has to be under this hive's domain, and when it isn't, this is
the one list it cannot join.

Proved by execution rather than eval, because the SAN list is a printf
argument filled in at runtime and eval can only show the template — the
lesson from the gateway outage. openssl-verified against a CA carrying
the real name constraint: old and new leaves agree on every name the hive
serves, the wildcard genuinely stops at one label, and a sibling name
added to this leaf fails.

That last case came back stronger than expected: a nameConstraints
violation invalidates the certificate, not the offending SAN, so one
foreign name here would break the leaf for the dashboard and every other
vhost sharing it. The comment says so now, and gateway.md's cert-shape
paragraph no longer describes SANs that are gone.

660629a7c6 docs(3083): getting into the SSO provider the first time
The vhost half of this change is only useful with an account behind it,
and the provider is generated with an empty user set on purpose. Document
the `swarmctl user add` step rather than automating it: bootstrapping an
IdP non-interactively means a secret arriving from a file, an env var or a
nix expression, all worse than one command typed once.

The gateway and network pages gain the rows they would otherwise be
missing — vhost map, local-dev hosts entry, and the resolver's
authoritative-name list.

b4a3eb75b0 docs(3149): what the SSO secrets are and where each one lives
The question this answers is "what do I have to configure, and where" —
so the table of secrets is the deliverable and the prose is scaffolding
around it.

The organising idea worth keeping: a secret belongs in-container when
nothing outside that container reads it. Every one of authelia's own
secrets passes that test; the client secret's plaintext fails it, which
is what makes delivery a problem at all rather than a detail.

7fc426b4dd swarmctl: add CLI reference docs, same pattern as hivectl
Adds swarmctl markdown-docs (a hidden Verb, same clap-markdown +
hide=true shape as hivectl markdown-docs) and generates
docs/tools/swarmctl-cli.md from it. Wires a swarmctl-docs freshness
check into nix/checks.nix, same shape as hivectl-docs, diffing against
packages.swarmctl.

One real gotcha: PathArgs::resolve() reads required
SWARMCTL_AUTHELIA_* deployment env vars and errors if unset -
swarmctl markdown-docs must not go through that path (it needs none of
those vars, and the docs build runs it outside any real deployment).
Restructured main() so resolve() only runs for the User arm, not
unconditionally before the match.

Also links the new doc from docs/tools/README.md (new 'for the swarm
operator' section), CLAUDE.md's swarmctl bullet, and
docs/conventions.md's flake-check list.

Verified: cargo check/clippy -D warnings/test/fmt -p swarmctl all
clean; swarmctl markdown-docs diffs clean against the committed doc
(checked against both a plain cargo build and the actual nix build.
#swarmctl output); scripts/check-issue-refs.sh clean.

5bd085fbac web-ui: expose per-agent paused status, add pause/resume to the agent page's own overflow menu
hive-agent's own web_ui module never exposed the agent's own paused
status to its own /api/state — the dashboard's cross-container view
knew it, but a per-agent page had no way to know it's paused. Added
StateSnapshot.paused (a direct stat of the same harness-local pause
marker hive-c0re's Coordinator::is_paused checks).

The per-agent page's ⋯ overflow menu now has a pause/resume item that
POSTs to hive-c0re's existing /api/pause/<name> / /api/resume/<name> —
the same endpoints the dashboard's <hive-agent-menu> already uses,
same cross-origin form-submit pattern the existing rebuild-container
item uses. The item's label tracks state.paused on every /api/state
refresh so a pause/resume triggered from the dashboard while this page
is open doesn't leave a stale action showing.

ecf9ff4d80 web-ui: remove dead ask->operator inline-answer binding from the per-agent terminal
hyperhive#2922: the inline-answer slot (pendingAskBinds/reconcileAskBinds/
buildAnswerForm) depended on a since-removed /api/loose-ends endpoint
and had been silently non-functional the whole time — nothing ever
reassigned lastLooseEnds, so the reconciler always no-op'd.

Per mara's call on the issue (ask/answer is deprecated per #2850, only
the main dashboard UI needs to work, remove the broken per-agent inline
view): ripped out the dead JS (binding + form + CSS) rather than
restoring the endpoint. An ask tool call now renders like any other
tool call, no inline answer affordance; the operator answers via the
dashboard's own question surfacing.

Also fixed adjacent doc staleness this same removal made newly
contradictory (docs/web-ui/agent.md, docs/terminal-rendering.md):
the doc already described the loose-ends/bash-tasks flyouts and the
ask-binding as recently dead, but the endpoint reference table and a
header-pills bullet list still described them as live.

98d895cf9e docs(gateway): describe what is, not what changed
Per review: docs represent current state. Every "used to" / "no longer"
clause this branch introduced is gone — including the History section in
network.md, which was a whole subsection about a sync mechanism that
doesn't exist.

Where the removed clause was carrying a real constraint, the constraint
stays and is stated in the present tense instead of as a delta: nothing
narrows what the gateway's nginx can reach except the directory
permissions in front of a socket, and nothing bounds `ReloadGatewayNginx`
except the hard-coded unit name. Those read as rules now rather than as
the story of how they came to be rules.

07852cabc1 feat(3088): move the gateway's nginx + dnsmasq onto the host
The gateway's nginx + dnsmasq no longer run in their own nspawn container.
`nix/host-modules/hive-gateway/default.nix` loses the
`containers.hive-gateway` wrapper and everything that existed only to punch
holes in it: `privateNetwork = false`, `CAP_NET_ADMIN`, five bind mounts,
its own `stateVersion`, `networking.firewall.enable = false`,
`networking.resolvconf.enable = false`, and the `hive-gateway-resolv`
path+service pair. 465 -> 303 lines.

The container never bought isolation here. It shared the host netns by
necessity — nginx binds the host's :80/:443, dnsmasq answers on the bridge —
so each of those settings was undoing a boundary the gateway could not
afford in the first place.

Four things made it more than a deletion, none of them visible in the nix
diff:

- The self-signed cert service also imports the hive CA leaf, so removing it
  with the container would have left nginx naming a missing cert file, which
  it refuses to load at all.
- The nginx reload is a hive-priv verb. It still needs root, but no longer
  for the reason its doc gave, and `--machine=` was both transport and
  scope — so the unit name is now hard-coded in the helper as the
  containment.
- The lifecycle verb named a container that stops existing.
- `journalctl -M hive-gateway` had no machine to enter.

Per the operator's ruling, the operator verb keeps working and agents lose
it. `InfraContainer` answered three questions that used to share an answer;
it now splits into `name()` (identity), `target()` (Container vs HostUnit),
`service_unit()` (the systemd unit), and `agent_restartable()`, which the
MCP restart path checks before the capability so the refusal cannot read as
"ask for infra_admin". `SIBLING_CONTAINERS` drops the gateway — it gates the
requests that name a container as a string — while `FromStr` still accepts
it, because that answers what a name is, not who may act on it. The
dashboard's gateway journal reads host journald filtered to `nginx.service`.

Prose was corrected where it only named a location, and re-argued where the
container was doing security work: a `0666` per-agent socket was safe
because only the gateway container had the directory bind-mounted. There is
no mount now, so the directory permissions are the whole of the access
control — the constraint holds, its mechanism doesn't.

Gate: nix fmt / clippy --all-targets -D warnings / cargo test all clean (710
tests); hivectl-cli.md regenerated from the clap tree. The nix eval was run
in both TLS shapes at this commit: every delta in the rendered
virtualHosts is one of the three intended path moves, dnsmasq settings are
byte-identical, and the absence probe flips true -> false with bindMounts
emptied.

b785f96d30 dashboard: distinct "gave up" badge for a crash-looped container
Frontend half of the two-PR split on the systemd restart-bound work
(clause 2): once a container's unit hits systemd's bounded restart
limit and stops on its own, that read exactly like a deliberate stop
("not running") — no way to tell "gave up" from "off on purpose".

Renders ContainerView.failed as a distinct red "gave up" badge on the
container row, in place of the muted "not running" badge. Both states
have running: false; failed is the new orthogonal fact that tells them
apart, same "independent flags, no state machine" shape as
paused/needs_update/needs_login. An older backend without the field
serves failed: undefined, which reads falsy, so this degrades cleanly
to the existing single "not running" badge.

Frontend-only — no Rust changes. Safe to merge in either order
relative to the backend PR carrying ContainerView.failed itself.

1e13b88c8c jobq graph: state filter on /api/jobq/graph + multi-select checkboxes
GET /api/jobq/graph gains a states query param (comma-separated
hive_jobq::State names): narrows the served root groups to the named
states, keeping a group whole (filtering by a root's own state, which
is already its subtree's rolled-up answer). Absent, empty, or fully
unrecognised is the identity filter, matching prior behaviour.

hive-jobq-graph.js gains a row of per-state checkboxes above the tree,
re-fetching the endpoint with the selection on toggle. Default
selection hides Done and Skipped.

Server-side filtering (not client-side hiding) so hive-jobq-graph-update's
node list, and everything downstream of it in builds.js (count pill,
live-log panel), only ever sees what's actually shown.

e525dcb6d4 agent icon: 404 when unconfigured, client-side fallback
hive_sh4re::assets::branding_svg() resolved a server-side default
icon at runtime from HIVE_ASSETS_DIR — the only consumer was
serve_icon(), which fell back to it whenever the agent had no
`hyperhive.icon` override. Removed both the fallback and the
function: serve_icon() now 404s when /etc/hyperhive/icon.svg is
absent, and the per-agent web UI (app.js) picks up the existing
dashboard swarm.js pattern — swap the <img> src to the
frontend-bundled /favicon.svg on load failure, guarded against
looping if the fallback itself 404s.

Updated the doc/comment claims that said the server always returns
an image (docs/web-ui/agent.md, nix/agent-modules/default.nix, the
hive-c0re/forge/users.rs comment referencing the old shared-asset
set). forge-avatar-sync and the matrix avatar sync are unaffected —
both are gated on hyperhive.icon != null and never depended on the
removed fallback.

609035961f fix(#3044): stop mounting a child's harness dir into its parent
bind_child_agent_dirs looped over state, harness and config alike and
mounted all three read-write, while the doc comment above it defended
only state. The rationale covered one dir, the loop covered three — the
uniformity is what erased the fact that the three have three different
answers.

harness holds the child's own runtime material (bash-tasks, the
turn-stats and event sqlite dbs) and nothing argues for a parent
touching it. The only other reader is stats::hive_stats, which reads the
host path directly and needs no mount into anyone.

config stays read-write here on purpose. The ruling is that it becomes
read-only, but request_init_config still has the manager seed a new
child's config in place, so flipping the mount before relocating that
step breaks agent creation hive-wide. That ordering now lives in the doc
comment, where someone about to finish the job in one line will see it.

docs/persistence.md justified all three dirs as RW; it now states the
boundary as three answers and names the right source file.

038d085001 feat(nix): the matrix container gets the swarm-internal trust anchor
`security.pki.certificateFiles` is read when the system is BUILT and the
swarm root is deliberately a runtime file (its key must never enter the
world-readable store), so there was nothing build-time to name and the
container trusted no swarm-internal CA. Federation with a peer whose
cert chains to the swarm root did not validate.

The bridge already existed: `lib/hive-ca-trust.nix`, which `hive-ci` and
`hive-forge` both cross. This wires the matrix container to it -- read-only
bind of the trust bundle, container ordered after `hive-tls-ca.service` --
rather than inventing a second mechanism.

Consumption is the per-runtime half, and it is not what it looks like.
tuwunel links no openssl, which makes `SSL_CERT_FILE` appear inapplicable.
It isn't: the outbound client is `reqwest` with the `rustls` feature,
which builds a `rustls_platform_verifier::Verifier`, and because tuwunel
calls `tls_certs_merge` (additive) rather than `tls_certs_only`, the
platform roots stay alongside its compiled-in webpki set. On Linux that
verifier resolves through `rustls-native-certs` to `openssl-probe`, which
reads `SSL_CERT_FILE`. Established by reading tuwunel 1.8.0 and reqwest
0.13.4 source, not inferred from the feature list -- an earlier reading of
mine concluded the opposite from the absence of a `native-roots` feature
name and was wrong.

The variable therefore names a CONCATENATION (system CAs + the bundle),
never the anchor alone: `openssl-probe` uses it *instead of* the default
store, so pointing it at the bundle would drop every public CA and break
federation with the wider matrix network -- trading a small outage for a
much larger one.

`container@hive-matrix` needed `mkMerge`: it already assigned `after` for
the gateway ordering and the helper contributes its own `after`/`requires`,
so two bare assignments would have conflicted rather than combined.

⚠️ Gate honesty: `state/eval-3093.sh` proves the mount, the ordering, the
bundle service and the env var are RENDERED -- 6 probes, including two
separate absence probes (mount and consumption are wired at different
sites, and the gateway outage happened precisely because two of three
sites tolerated a missing cert and the third did not). It CANNOT prove
tuwunel loads them: a build that ignores the variable evaluates
identically to one that honours it, and the chain above is
version-specific. That half wants an executed check on a real deploy.

aa14339be7 jobq-graph: re-add per-node cancel button
Fixes #3067.

<hive-jobq-graph> gains a `cancellable` attribute: any non-terminal
node (Pending/Running/Finishing) gets a small cancel button, and a
click dispatches `hive-jobq-graph-cancel` (`detail: { id }`) rather
than POSTing anything itself -- which endpoint actually cancels a
node is the host's domain concept, same "push data out, host decides"
shape `hive-jobq-graph-update` already uses.

builds.js turns it on for R3BU1LD QU3U3, confirms via themedConfirm,
then POSTs the existing `/api/rebuild-queue/{id}/cancel` endpoint.
No manual refresh needed -- cancelling flips node state, which
already fires rebuild_queue_changed over SSE, and the page's existing
handler for that tick already calls jobqGraphEl.refresh().

Also removed ~130 lines of dead `.rqe-*` CSS in system-sections.css
left over from the bespoke pre-<hive-jobq-graph> queue renderer
(confirmed zero JS references before deleting each rule; kept the
still-used `.rqe-kind`/`.rqe-agent`/`.rqe-source*`).

docs/web-ui/dashboard.md's R3BU1LD QU3U3 section updated to match
current behaviour (cancel button, waits-on text instead of the old
"no per-node actions" note, sibling order no longer implies anything
since deps render as text not a reordered rail).

a5210311bf feat(nix): the matrix server_name follows the swarm domain too
A swarm runs one homeserver, so its identity belongs to the swarm and
not to whichever hive happens to host it -- otherwise relocating the
container between hives reads as a different homeserver rather than a
move. `gatewayHost` moved for that reason a commit ago; `serverName`
was left behind, which made the identity hive-shaped and the routing
swarm-shaped.

⚠️ This is the one value on the page that a rebuild cannot undo.
`gatewayHost` is a routing detail clients rediscover through
`.well-known`; `server_name` is embedded in every user and room id, so
adopting a new one strands the existing accounts and rooms rather than
renaming them -- their ids still name a homeserver that stops
answering. Moving the DEFAULT is safe; moving a RUNNING deployment is
not, and existing hives must pin the value they already minted ids
under before rebuilding.

The fallback stays total on a null swarm domain for the same reason as
its neighbours: the required-domain assertion in hive-network.nix is
what should fire, not a coercion error from an unrelated option
interpolating null.

The legacy-pin eval probe now covers `serverName` as well. It existed
to answer "what do I set so old deployments don't change", and was
proving that only for the two values that are cheap to change -- the
irreversible one was the one it did not assert.

Two mentions are deliberately left alone. `docs/tools/hivectl.md` says
the URL is read from the daemon "instead of assuming forge.<domain>" --
that sentence is about not assuming a shape and stays true. And
matrix.md's breaking-change note describes what `serverName` USED to
default to; it is history, correctly labelled, and rewriting it would
erase the record of an earlier migration.

The ACME line gained a requirement rather than a rename: with the
service names under the swarm domain, every one of those names has to
resolve to this host, not just the hive's own.

3b6576faee refactor(nix): a hive's domain comes out of the swarm directory
`services.hyperhive.domain` and `swarm.hives.<hiveName>.domain` were two
homes for one value with nothing asserting they agreed. The failure that
buys is the worst shape a config defect has: it evaluates cleanly, and
the symptom ("the other hives can't reach me") appears on a machine
other than the misconfigured one.

The directory is now the single source. `hives.<name>.domain` gains the
`<name>.<swarm.domain>` default -- a derivation from two values an
operator had to state explicitly, not a guess -- so a conventional swarm
is a list of names and a hive addressed by something else says so in the
one place every other hive reads. `services.hyperhive.domain` reads its
own entry; the direct formula is deleted rather than kept as a fallback,
which would have restored the second path (and, reading `swarm.domain`
itself, a second path that can disagree).

Setting it directly still wins, with a deprecation warning: nothing
breaks today, but a value written only there is invisible to the swarm.

The self-entry assertion now fires on an EMPTY directory too. Since
`swarm.domain` became required, every hive is in a swarm -- a swarm of
one is still a swarm -- and this host's address is read out of the
directory, so the entry is missing either way and the precise message
should be the one that fires.

Upgrading costs one line on hives that never listed themselves:
`services.hyperhive.swarm.hives.<hiveName> = { };`, no value.

0aa9a854bc fix(forge): validate list's label + milestone filters, and paginate both
A filter value the forge cannot resolve is DISCARDED, not rejected, so a
typo does not narrow the result set -- it returns the unfiltered one.
That does not waste a query, it inverts the answer: "is anything open in
this milestone" comes back as every open issue and reads as yes, and a
duplicate check gets a list that never narrowed.

`list` now resolves both before querying. Labels reuse the write side's
resolver; the ids are discarded because this endpoint filters by name, so
resolution here is a spell-check rather than a lookup -- reusing it keeps
the message identical to the one the write side has always produced.
Milestones accept a title or an id and are checked against the ALL-state
set: filtering on a closed milestone is a normal query, and validating
against open-only would reject exactly the retrospective ones.

Both fetchers paginate. `repo_labels` asked for one page of 100 and
treated it as the population -- the inverse of the trailer bug, same
root: a valid label past the cut fails to resolve, and the error then
prints an "available labels" list that is itself truncated, so the
message argues for the typo.

`--assignee` / `--author` stay unvalidated on purpose: someone who has
left still legitimately appears on old issues, so a login that is not a
current member is not necessarily a typo.

Also drops the docs paragraph claiming unknown labels are silently
dropped on the write side; that has not been true since the resolver
landed.

433b294099 refactor(nix): swarm.peers becomes swarm.hives, a directory of every hive
One attrset describing every hive in the swarm including this one,
identical on every host, with hiveName selecting which entry is us.
"My peers" is derived (swarm.peerHives) rather than declared.

Every field in the old per-host peer list was intrinsic to the hive it
described, never to the pair -- so the list was a directory each host
kept its own copy of. Beyond the deduplication it removes a bug class:
two hosts could hold different endpoints for the same third hive with
nothing to detect the disagreement.

Drops the per-hive caCert. Trust inside a swarm derives from the swarm
root, which every hive chains to. What that genuinely removes is
trusting a hive whose root this swarm does not own -- a cross-swarm
problem that wants a mechanism of its own, not a field that happened to
work.

The matrix container's certificateFiles block goes with it and could
NOT be migrated: that list is read at build time and the swarm root is
a runtime file (its key must never enter the store), so there is no
build-time name to put there. caCert being a nix path was precisely
what made it the build-time distribution channel. Agents are unaffected
-- hive-tls folds the root into the hive trust bundle and the meta
renderer embeds that one file. Tracked separately.

Migration is an assertion plus warnings, not a rename: hives is peers
union {self}, and the set gains a member no existing config has written
down. A rename migrates a name and a default can re-root a meaning;
neither can conjure a new member. The warning explains, the self-entry
assertion stops the build.

591d0e789f docs(swarm): document the two adoption paths

half true: where the host owns the root it happens by itself, and the

8e690c0694 feat(forge): search + milestone filters, and a page trailer that can't lie
`list` already built its query with `q: None, milestones: None` — both
fields were on the request it was sending. So full-text search over
title and body is a flag, not a new verb, and a text match is only
useful composed with the other filters anyway.

The trailer was the real defect. It fired on `count == limit`, but the
forge clamps page size to its own `api.MAX_RESPONSE_ITEMS`: ask for 400,
get a full 50, and `50 != 400` kept it silent — suppressing the warning
in precisely the case where the truncation is invisible. It now reports
the real total from `X-Total-Count`, which the response header struct
already parsed and the call site discarded. The requested limit is not
clamped client-side: that ceiling is the remote's configuration, not
ours.

bcd4fbd918 docs(swarm): cut the CA material into its own page
Second split under docs/swarm/, following the shape docs/turn-loop/ and
docs/web-ui/ already use.

The README keeps the `## Swarm CA` heading rather than deleting it: an
existing cross-reference targets that anchor, and a heading is the
cheapest thing to preserve. It now carries the one-paragraph summary and
a pointer, so a reader who lands on the anchor still arrives somewhere
that answers the question.

The CA page also absorbs three things that were true but undocumented —
why the trust bundle rather than the bare intermediate (openssl will not
terminate a chain at a non-self-signed anchor without -partial_chain),
that autoConfigure derives from enableAllLocalDefaults, and that the
name constraint excludes both IP families because a permitted-DNS-only
constraint says nothing about IP SANs.

material moves to `docs/swarm/services.md`, following the shape
`docs/turn-loop/` and `docs/web-ui/` already use. The README keeps a
pointer so the reading path is unbroken.

Every referrer moved with it — five docs pages, two option descriptions
in swarm.nix, and CLAUDE.md's reading path. A pointer to a file that
moved is worse than one to a file that was deleted: the content still
exists, so the reader concludes the note is wrong rather than the path.

ade0bf24c5 docs: the forge is swarm-wide but not optional, so it derives nothing
Both the option description and docs/swarm.md listed the forge among the
services whose `enable` defaults from `swarm.enableRequiredServices`.
It has no `enable`: it is the canonical store for the meta flake and
every agent's config repo, so it deploys with hyperhive itself.

The distinction is worth stating rather than deleting — a reader who
sees matrix and authelia listed and the forge absent would reasonably
wonder whether the forge is per-hive. It isn't; it's mandatory.

cc74a2c1f6 feat(nix): make the swarm CA hierarchy opt-in
A swarm's services and its hives can live on different hosts, and a host
has no way to tell whether it is the one holding the root — so setting
the swarm CA up is an operator action, not something a host infers.
`swarm.ca.autoConfigure` is off by default and is the only thing that
issues a hive sub-CA, which is also the only case that *can*: signing
one needs the root's private key, and that key is deliberately not on a
hive host otherwise.

With the flag off, a hive self-signs its CA exactly as it always has.
That keeps a plain hive working out of the box; what it gives up is
membership of a swarm's trust hierarchy, which is the right thing to
give up for a hive nobody has federated.

Replaces a default derived from `swarm.peers == { }`. That read "no
peers declared" as "everything is local", which is not the same claim —
a hive can belong to a swarm it has not declared yet, or to one whose
services run elsewhere entirely.

06710e83b4 feat(nix): issue each hive's CA under a swarm root CA
Cross-hive trust was O(n²) hand-pinning: every hive had to name every
peer's CA. A swarm root makes it O(1) — trust the root once and every
present and future peer validates.

The root is generated by a new `swarm-ca` unit on a single-host swarm
and operator-provided otherwise; `swarm.ca.autoConfigure` picks between
them and derives its default from `swarm.peers` being empty, so "all on
one host" is read off the deployment rather than remembered. Both modes
produce the same artifacts in the same places, so splitting hosts later
is moving the service dirs, not switching code paths. The root key never
enters the nix store, and the root is never regenerated automatically —
replacing it invalidates every peer at once.

Each hive CA carries `nameConstraints` pinned to that hive's domain, so
a leaked hive CA can only mint names inside its own subdomain, enforced
by verifiers rather than by convention.

`ca.pem` was serving as both the issuer and the anchor consumers trust;
those are the same file only while it is self-signed. openssl will not
terminate a chain at a trusted cert that isn't self-signed (rustls and
Go will), so the promotion would have broken some consumers and not
others. `hive-tls-ca` now also writes `trust-bundle.pem` — the hive CA
plus whatever it is rooted at — and every anchor consumer reads that:
agents, the CI and forge containers, and the peer-config recipe. On a
hive with no swarm root the bundle is just that CA, so nothing consuming
it needs a mode to branch on.

fbf3757551 feat(nix): require swarm.domain and hiveName
Neither has a fallback worth having: a guessed swarm domain is a wrong
hostname that evaluates cleanly and deploys, which is worse than an
eval failure naming the one line an operator has to write. Upgrading
past this sets both, once.

Requiring them also makes the hive domain fully derived rather than
merely derivable — `<hiveName>.<swarm.domain>` now always resolves, so
an operator writes the swarm's address and this hive's label and never
writes the hive domain at all.

`hiveName` stops being display-only in the process: it is the leftmost
label of the domain the hive is addressed by, which the option text and
docs now say.

Each of the three required options asserts separately, so a missing one
names itself. A missing `swarm.domain` legitimately fails two of them —
its own, and `domain`, which can no longer derive — and nix reports all
failing assertions together, so the operator sees the whole set rather
than one at a time.

747f405c6f fix(nix): keep the domain-derived defaults total
The required-domain assertion in hive-network.nix could not be reached:
`forge.<domain>` and `matrix.<domain>` are evaluated while the
assertion list is, so an unset domain threw `cannot coerce null to a
string` naming one of those options instead of printing the message
that says which option to set.

Both defaults now fall back to a name under the reserved `.invalid`
TLD, which the assertion refuses to let out the door.

ec565120af feat(nix): derive the hive domain from a new swarm.domain
Every hive in a swarm occupies its own sub-domain of the swarm's, so
the hive domain is derivable rather than something each hive restates.
`services.hyperhive.swarm.domain` is new and nullable; the hive's own
`domain` keeps its existing required-ness and its existing assertion,
and gains a default of `<hiveName>.<swarm.domain>`.

Deliberately a default and not a rename: an alias would reinterpret the
domains hives have already deployed, while a default only fills in the
ones that never set one. Same reason there is no new assertion — the
existing message just names the derivation, so this adds a way to stop
failing rather than a way to fail.

dde0e1a8c1 docs: let the crate README own the technical detail, point at it
Per review: crate READMEs will be served on the docs page, so the same
technical content in docs/swarm.md and the repo map is redundancy, not
thoroughness.

docs/swarm.md keeps only what is operator-facing and specific to it --
the option, and why enable is not derived from services.hyperhive.enable
-- and points at the README for the socket-directory constraint. The repo
map keeps the one-line warning and the pointer, not the argument.

This is the same correction as the AgentWindow comments: I had written
the socket rationale into five places and called it coverage. Correcting
every copy is what preserves the cause.

bed7ae6d5a docs: a config change is a PR from a clone, not an edit in place
Seven places described an authoring flow that does not exist: the
manager editing and committing a child's config in the bind-mounted
config dir. mara, on the snapshot issue: "the pr workflow is the main
one, anything else is legacy … the config dir in agent container is
read only copy to see own config … changes need to go through local
clone and via forge".

Two of the seven are the request_init_config MCP tool description and
its args struct, which are rendered into the system prompt of every
agent holding the approvals tool group. A wrong tool description is not
a stale comment; it is an instruction the whole hive reads as fact,
which is why the claim kept being repeated back.

The init tool creates the repo and seeds it. Nothing else. Tailoring
the seeded template is not a separate mechanism - it is the ordinary
config-change flow, a PR reviewed like any other.

Prose only; the code already implements the PR flow (an approval's
commit_ref is a PR number). Where a doc justified the parent's
read-write mount on the child's config dir with the authoring model,
the justification is removed rather than replaced: that mount is a
defect tracked on its own issue, and it should not read as intentional
while it waits.
