A paused agent keeps its container, its claude session and its
dashboard/todo servers up, but stops driving turns. Messages queue
unacked and are drained on resume.
The whole protocol is a single marker file, `<harness>/paused`. That
directory is already a bind-mount shared between host and container, so
both sides just stat the same path: the harness reads it to decide
whether to drive a turn, hive-c0re reads it to render the badge and
writes/removes it for `hivectl pause|resume`. No new wire protocol, no
container round-trip, and it is sticky across restarts by construction.
Not calling `recv_next` while paused *is* the queueing semantic, so
there is no fencing to get wrong: reminders buffer in their unbounded
channel, the todo `Notify` permit coalesces, and a `request_next_turn`
that raced the pause survives because the gate sits above
`self_continue.take()`.
Graceful stop is handled host-side rather than in the harness: a paused
agent provably has no turn in flight, so `run_signal` skips the fence
entirely instead of eating the full `GRACEFUL_STOP_TIMEOUT` waiting for
a checkpoint turn that will never run.
`paused` is reported on `ContainerView` / `AgentStatusRow` for the
dashboard, orthogonal to `running` and reported for stopped containers
too.
Closes: hyperhive/hyperhive issue 2271
Per mara (#2660): the client shouldn't re-derive a friendly name from
node kinds — that re-bakes the domain knowledge the raw-graph redesign
removed. The queue card / hivectl header now shows what the backend sends
(the DAG's source + the raw node kinds); the node chain conveys the
operation. Removes the DagView::label() helper (hivectl was its only
consumer after iris dropped the frontend map in #2660) and points
hivectl's header at d.source instead.
hivectl/dag_progress.rs was reading the now-removed DagView.kind/state.
Derive both from the node set via the shared DagView::rollup_state() +
DagView::label() helpers (added to hive-sh4re). Timestamps are DateTime<Utc>
now — elapsed calcs compare in unix seconds. Dropped the live step display
(step left the wire). Test fixtures updated to the slim shape.
Reconcile with mara + argus's review on the frontend PR (#2660):
- DagView regains started_at/finished_at (DateTime<Utc>), computed
host-side as min/max over ALL subtree nodes (including the Done ones
filtered off the wire). The client can't derive these — the
earliest/only-started node is often Done and absent — so the backend
sets them, per mara's call.
- NodeView gains has_log: bool = build_log_id.is_some(), the precise
old 'node has a captured build log' guard so the dashboard only shows
a log link for nodes that actually produce one.
- server::await_dags: a DAG is settled when gone from the snapshot (fully
Done) or present with all nodes terminal; pending only with a non-terminal
node (DagView no longer carries a rolled-up state).
- DagView::rollup_state() added to hive-sh4re — the shared node-set roll-up
derivation every Rust consumer uses.
- JobQueue::build_log_id_of(node_id) — the node_id -> build_logs lookup the
query endpoint will use; tests assert log-id via it now.
- tests: derive roll-up state; drop the off-wire step/build_log_id wire asserts.
WIP (hive-sh4re only; hive-c0re construction follows). Reshapes the
dashboard/hivectl queue wire per mara's redesign (#2637):
- DagView is now a thin projection: { id, source, reason, created_at, nodes }.
Dropped the rolled-up kind (Template)/state/started_at/finished_at/inputs/
approval_id — the client derives label + roll-up state + DAG timestamps
from the node set.
- NodeView drops step + inline build_log_id; started_at/finished_at are
chrono DateTime<Utc> (off the hive_jobq Node); non-derivable per-node
payload rides the owning node (approval_id on the approval node, inputs
on the meta_lock node).
- Deleted the Template enum entirely.
Done nodes are excluded from the wire (a fully-done DAG disappears; a
failed DAG lingers until the history cap). Build logs move to an on-demand
GET /api/build-log/<node_id> query (next commits).
Land argus's review nit from #2654 (it was pushed to that PR's branch as
fc4230f2 but got orphaned when the branch was merged + auto-deleted before
the fix landed). The hive-sh4re README opening said 'Agent / Manager
request + response shapes', which reads as if the wire envelopes still live
here; they moved to the per-socket crates. Now says 'shared payload
vocabulary' and notes where the envelopes live.
Second increment of the per-crate README effort, covering the rest of the
infra/wire/priv column: hive-priv, hive-metric, hive-types, hive-sh4re,
hive-core-agent-sock, hive-agent-sock. Same shape as the first batch —
purpose + when-to-use, and point at the crate-root //! docs plus the
relevant docs/ pages rather than duplicating them. Wires
readme = "README.md" into each Cargo.toml [package].
Disjoint from the batch-1 crates, so the two increments compose cleanly.
Replace the in-tree scheduler with the domain-agnostic hive-jobq crate
(merged in #2615): parent-axis grouping + borrow/subtree-reservation
resource model + roll-up completion (State::Finishing).
Host adaptation:
- NodeSpec gains an explicit `parent` axis; templates declare grouping +
sibling ordering directly (deps order execution, parent groups a subtree
whose resource the descendants borrow).
- Rebuild is a nested two-root subtree: Prebuild (root, owns the build slot
for the whole subtree, lease-exempt) -> StopForUpdate (child, owns the
agent lease) -> Swap/PostSwap (children, borrow both); Reconcile is a
separate top-level root (AfterAny Prebuild) so it survives the cancel-
cascade of any failed step (recovery-start invariant) and converges to
the persisted `wanted` on a fresh lease. This is the multi-root
correction to the single-root-chain sketch: node0=root broke lease-
exemption (hoisting the lease onto Prebuild) and recovery-reconcile
(root failure cancels all children).
- Spawn / perm-change / power-ops (stop/start/restart) group-rooted the
same way; per-agent power-op subgraphs stay independent roots so a
multi-agent DAG runs them concurrently, each on its own lease.
- insert_group honours the explicit parent axis (no lease hoisting); the
DAG terminal node deps AfterAny on every group root and runs once the
whole op rolls up. Drop the old Graph::add_dep terminal wiring.
36/36 job_queue tests, full hive-c0re suite green, clippy --all-targets.
Since the boot sweep (#2450) and meta-update cascade (#2476) became
single DAGs that grow subgraphs in-place, nothing constructs the old
fan-out anchors/parents anymore:
- NodeKind::Noop (the old boot_root grouping anchor) — no constructors.
- Template::StartupSweep / Source::StartupSweep (the old fan-out parent
template + cascade-child source) — replaced by Template::Boot and
Source::AutoUpdate/MetaUpdate respectively.
Drops the three variants + their as_str arms + the Noop executor arm, and
refreshes the stale fan-out/anchor doc comments (Boot/MetaUpdate/Source
docs, coordinator.md, dashboard.md). Frontend: the queue-kind glyph moves
from the dead startup_sweep to boot (which had none), and the dead
rqe-source-startup_sweep style is dropped.
No behaviour change — pure dead-variant removal.
With the meta-update cascade (#2476) and startup sweep (#2450) folded
into single DAGs that grow per-agent subgraphs via append_subgraph,
nothing links parent/child DAGs anymore — parent_id is dead.
hive-c0re: drop parent_id from Dag/DagSpec (+ the DagView copy); delete
append_children and cancel_children (no callers); simplify trim_history
(no more terminal-parent-with-live-children guard — a one-big-DAG is
terminal only when its whole graph settles); drop the rebuild() parent_id
param; QueueDag returns just the polled DAG (no fan-out children to
gather). hive-sh4re: drop the DagView.parent_id wire field.
frontend: a multi-step op is one DAG now, so renderRebuildQueue drops the
childrenOf/orphans cross-DAG grouping and renders each entry flat; its
per-agent subgraphs render as nodes within the one row (split by deps).
Removed the dead rqe-child style + isChild plumbing.
Docs + the child-DAG queue tests updated/removed to match.
Agent was a single field on Dag/DagSpec, making a DAG structurally
one-agent — a multi-agent op could only ever be N separate DAGs. Move it
onto Node/NodeSpec (and the NodeView wire type), drop it from Dag/DagSpec
(and DagView): a DAG can now span agents.
- lifecycle lease keys on the node's agent, still globally exclusive per
agent across all DAGs (Inner.leases unchanged in shape). A DAG holds one
lease per distinct agent it touches; settle() frees each at DAG-terminal
(per-agent-subgraph early release is a follow-up, only observable with
multi-agent DAGs).
- transient guard keyed (dag_id, agent); cancel-revert + Rebuilt events
walk TerminalDag.agents.
- submit-time dedup removed (a multi-agent DAG has no single agent to key
on); every submit enqueues a fresh DAG. Whether dedup needs reintroducing
is tracked in a follow-up sub-issue.
- templates gain a node(agent, kind, deps) helper stamping the agent onto
every node; meta templates stamp "hyperhive".
Templates stay single-agent in this PR — behaviour is unchanged, only the
representation + wire shape. Multi-agent DAG emission (restart/restart-all/
broad stop+start as one DAG) and the SetWanted-as-a-node change are
follow-ups off #2439.
mara's review on #2436: no submit-await-submit composition, even
server-side. Adds Template::GracefulRestart (Signal -> Drain ->
StopForUpdate -> Reconcile, wanted=Up) mirroring how Restart already
does StopForUpdate -> Reconcile, plus submit::graceful_restart and
templates::graceful_restart. handle_restart_scoped now submits exactly
one DAG per agent up front for both the graceful and non-graceful
case -- no await_dags in the loop anymore.
Split the priv-socket wire types (PrivRequest/PrivResponse/PrivEvent and
friends) out of hive-sh4re into their own hive-priv-sock crate, mirroring
the existing hive-host-sock split. hive-priv — the root-privileged
helper — now depends on just this narrow protocol crate instead of the
much larger daemon-shared crate, shrinking its dependency surface and
making the privsep boundary easier to audit. No server/client
implementation lives here, only the wire contract; hive-c0re still
depends on hive-sh4re directly for everything else.
SendAgentSnapshotToFile priv op: btrfs send [-p <parent>] <snapshot> to a
file under MIGRATE_STAGING_ROOT. Standalone-useful as a point-in-time
snapshot export/backup today; the cross-hive ssh-piped leg (auth/trust
design posted on #1763, awaiting mara/damocles steer) is a later,
separate piece this doesn't block on.
- hive-sh4re: PrivRequest::SendAgentSnapshotToFile + MIGRATE_STAGING_ROOT
- hive-priv: validates names, refuses to overwrite an existing export,
cleans up a partial file on btrfs send failure
- hive-c0re: priv_client::send_agent_snapshot_to_file
- hivectl: `hivectl subvol snapshot send <agent> <label> [--parent <label>] --dest <file>`
Per mara: "i would have even disallowed ., we are making up the rules
here lets go strict". validate_credential_name now restricts to
[A-Za-z0-9_-] (no dot at all) instead of [A-Za-z0-9_.-] + a separate
".." substring check — simpler rule, and there's no legitimate need
for a dot in either a systemd credential id or a hive- prefixed
snapshot label. Matching hivectl client-side check + wire-proto doc
comments updated.
Per mara's PR review:
- snapshot label is now mandatory (was optional w/ timestamp default)
and must start with "hive-" — hive-priv enforces this as an
allow-list on top of the existing credential-name charset check, so
only hivectl-issued labels can reach the btrfs shellout.
- nest under `subvol snapshot create`/`subvol snapshot delete`
instead of othering delete as a separate top-level `delete-snapshot`
verb.
Per argus's review:
- regenerate docs/tools/hivectl-cli.md (hivectl markdown-docs) to
include the new subcommands — CI's hivectl-docs-fresh check compares
this file against generated output.
Adds the first missing piece from #2391's migration-gaps list: a
read-only btrfs snapshot priv op so hivectl migrate can freeze a
consistent point-in-time copy of an agent's state subvolume for
btrfs send, without stopping the live agent.
- PrivRequest::SnapshotAgentSubvolume / DeleteAgentSnapshot (hive-sh4re)
- hive-priv handlers: btrfs subvolume snapshot -r / delete, sibling
dot-prefixed path (<AGENT_STATE_ROOT>/.<agent>.snapshot.<label>)
- hive-c0re::priv_client wrappers
- hivectl subvol snapshot / delete-snapshot verbs (no agent stop needed
— btrfs snapshots are atomic against a live subvolume)
Does not yet wire actual btrfs send/receive or the hivectl migrate
verb — those stay tracked on #2391 as separate follow-up pieces.
Per mara's feedback on PR #2407 ("better: you can also provide url in
dashboard, same as with matrix, no host config"), drops
services.hyperhive.extraForges and the admin-API mint/revoke flow
entirely. The operator now creates a token on the external forge
themselves and pastes a label + base URL + access token into the
dashboard's FORGES tab, the same shape as the GitHub PAT flow plus the
base-URL field from the matrix extra-account flow. hive-c0re only ever
writes/deletes two local files per account (forge-<label>-token,
forge-<label>.json sidecar for the URL) via hive-priv — no remote
account creation, no admin token, no revoke-on-the-remote-side, no nix
config to enumerate.
- nix/host-modules/hive-forge/default.nix: removed the extraForges
option, its label-format assertion, and the HYPERHIVE_EXTRA_FORGES
env forwarding.
- hive-c0re/src/forge/extra.rs: deleted (REST admin-API provisioning,
no longer needed).
- hive-c0re/src/dashboard/extra_forges.rs: GET /api/extra-forges?
agent= lists an agent's stored forges by scanning its state dir
(mirrors matrix_accounts.rs's filename-scan listing), POST
/api/extra-forge-account (agent/label/base_url/token/
action=add|remove) stores or removes an account.
- hive-sh4re/priv_proto.rs + hive-priv/main.rs: new
WriteAgentExtraForgeAccount/DeleteAgentExtraForgeAccount priv
requests (adds base_url, writes/deletes a JSON sidecar alongside the
token).
- hive-c0re/src/priv_client.rs: matching wrapper functions.
- frontend/packages/dashboard/src/credentials.{html,js}: FORGES tab is
a per-agent list + add-account paste form (label/base_url/token), no
grant/revoke-from-catalog UI.
- docs/web-ui/dashboard.md: FORGES tab section rewritten.
Supersedes the design in PR #2407 (already approved+green on the old
admin-API model) — opening as a fresh PR against the same issues
rather than force-pushing over the approved one.
All agent containers now receive their bridge IP dynamically via DHCP
from the dnsmasq pool instead of a hash-derived static address:
- nix/templates/harness-base.nix: networking.useDHCP = true
- nix/modules/hive-gateway.nix: expand DHCP pool to full usable range
(.2 to .254 on /24) — was last-14-IPs-only
- hive-sh4re/src/priv_proto.rs: remove agent_ip from NetworkIsolation
- hive-c0re/src/lifecycle/mod.rs: drop agent_network_ip + DHCP_POOL_SIZE
- hive-c0re/src/lifecycle/host_config.rs: remove agent_network_ip call
- hive-priv/src/main.rs: LOCAL_ADDRESS= empty (DHCP assigns IP);
HOST_ADDRESS still set so nixos-container installs default route
before the DHCP lease arrives
- nix/dhcp-pool-size: deleted (no longer needed)
The nix/dhcp-pool-size single-source-of-truth file and all associated
Rust/Nix dual-constant plumbing are gone — there is no static map.
bridge_gateway_ip() is retained (still needed for HOST_ADDRESS).
Closes#2363
MergeConfigPr approvals had a fully-implemented approve handler
(run_merge_config_pr, ff_push_to_main, mark_pr_merged) and dashboard
display, but no way to submit one. An agent with the `approvals` tool
group calling request_merge_config_pr(agent, pr_number) is the missing
piece.
What this adds:
- RequestMergeConfigPr variant in hive-sh4re AgentRequest + ToolGroup::Approvals
- submit_merge_config_pr: fetches PR head sha (the drift-gate reviewed sha),
queues a MergeConfigPr row, sets fetched_sha, emits approval_added with
pr_number so the dashboard card links to the forge PR
- handle_request_merge_config_pr: topology (require_descendant) +
tool-group (require_group(approvals)) guards before submit
- socket_server/mod.rs: dispatch arm for RequestMergeConfigPr
- hive-ag3nt MCP tool: request_merge_config_pr with full description
- docs/tools/lifecycle.md: documents the new tool + boundary table row
Unlike submit_apply_commit, no flake pre-flight at submission time (eval-
verify happens at approval time inside run_merge_config_pr, same as the
rest of the merge pipeline). Applied repo must already exist (guard added
with a clear error message pointing at request_apply_commit for first-spawn).
- Add `priv_proto::AGENT_RUNTIME_ROOT` to hive-sh4re as the shared
single source for the per-agent runtime root path. hive-priv now
imports it instead of carrying a local const with a stale comment
that still pointed at `coordinator::AGENT_RUNTIME_ROOT` (removed in
#2285/#2367 — moved to `paths::agent_runtime_root()`).
- Add 'must stay in sync' cross-ref comments on both sides of the
privsep boundary:
· priv_proto::META_DIR ↔ paths::meta_root()
· priv_proto::AGENT_STATE_ROOT ↔ paths::AGENTS_ROOT
· priv_proto::AGENT_RUNTIME_ROOT ↔ paths::RUNTIME_ROOT + agent_runtime_root()
· paths::AGENTS_ROOT ↔ priv_proto::AGENT_STATE_ROOT
· paths::RUNTIME_ROOT ↔ priv_proto::AGENT_RUNTIME_ROOT
The dep graph prevents a shared import (hive-sh4re is a leaf; both
hive-c0re and hive-priv depend on it but not each other), so the
lockstep comments are the enforced contract.
Root cause of the boot outage: container@h-* units try to start before
hive-c0re reaches ensure_runtime, so bind-mount source dirs are missing.
Fix: hive-c0re (via hive-priv, which runs as root) writes
/etc/tmpfiles.d/hyperhive-agents.conf whenever the agent set changes.
systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service (sysinit.target) reads it at every boot
BEFORE any container units start, pre-creating:
/run/hyperhive/agents/<name> — MCP socket dir (bind -> /run/hive)
/run/hive-agent/<name> — web socket dir (bind -> /run/hive-agent)
This alone removes the outage class: even if hive-c0re is slow to start,
the bind-mount sources exist and container units can activate.
Added:
- PrivRequest::SyncAgentTmpfiles { agents } in hive-sh4re
- sync_agent_tmpfiles() in hive-priv: generates content, writes atomically,
calls systemd-tmpfiles --create to apply immediately
- priv_client::sync_agent_tmpfiles() wrapper
- lifecycle::sync_tmpfiles() best-effort helper (list + priv call)
- Call sites: hive-c0re startup, handle_spawn success, destroy success
nixos-container has no kill verb. The KillContainer priv request was
calling nixos-container kill which always fails. Replace with:
machinectl kill <name> --signal=SIGKILL
which sends SIGKILL to all processes in the container — the correct
semantics for a forced shutdown (called after graceful stop has been
attempted). Add a machinectl_run helper alongside container_run so
callers stay consistent.
every agent lifecycle verb on the admin socket (rebuild / restart /
restart-all / kill / stop / start) now submits job-queue DAGs and
returns their ids; hivectl polls the new HostRequest::QueueDag and
prints a live node-chain progress line per DAG (fan-out children
included), exiting non-zero on failure — --no-wait opts out. DagView
and the queue wire enums move to hive_sh4re::jobs (wire types live in
the shared crate); the last fused rebuild path (lifecycle::rebuild)
is gone. tracker: #2166
replaces three hand-rolled six-arm matches (actions.rs ×2,
state_snapshot.rs); approvals::kind_to_str delegates. a new kind can
no longer silently miss one of them
