queue_meta_update adds a TriggerDeploy behind each retry UpdateMeta (after_ok) for every agent whose latest deploy waited on a failed update. A created or merged agent whose deploy was skipped is deployed by the run that succeeds; a deploy skipped for another reason, or an agent already deployed, gets nothing.
A hive builds only from internal/meta, so a TriggerDeploy after a failed UpdateMeta could only fail its build. Both DAGs that queue an update (merged config PR, agent create) now gate the deploy with after_ok: the update shows Failed and the deploy Skipped.
The hive no longer renders, locks or commits a meta flake. A rebuild's
MetaSync node picks the internal/meta commit and records it with the
hyperhive and config pins it holds; Prebuild, Swap and Create build from it,
and a head that does not pin the agent's current config fails the build
naming the agent. hive-priv's meta_rev is required.
Removed: meta.rs sync/lock/render, the manual-rebuild relock, the boot
sweep's hyperhive bump (MetaLock), the update-meta-inputs form and its
panel, MetaWindow, the hive's hyperhive_rev setting.
Kept: agent_set::refresh holds what sync_agents also did (topology.json, the
gateway's agent-socket map and nginx include), called from spawn, destroy,
rebuild and the migration.
The boot reconcile and the stale-start upgrade compare the agent's marker
with the hyperhive pin of internal/meta; the dashboard's deployed chip reads
the config marker a successful build writes.
The swarm controller offers its own running rev (services.hyperhive.c0re.
hyperhiveRev) as the hyperhive pin of internal/meta and takes it only when
the forge compare API shows it descends from the committed pin; merges to
hyperhive main no longer move the pin, and the first commit pins main's head.
When a commit moves the pin, every placed agent gets a TriggerDeploy.
A deploy after a meta update no longer waits on it succeeding (after_any), so
a down builder does not hold back hives that render locally.
A new update_meta node renders internal/meta's flake.nix with
hive-meta-flake, the renderer hive-c0re uses: hyperhive pinned to its
forge main, each custom agent a hive places pinned to its agent-configs
main, all over https, and the swarm-wide values from
SWARM_CONTROLLER_META_FLAKE (set by swarm-controller.nix from
services.hyperhive.swarm.*). The swarm builder locks it, and the
controller commits flake.nix and flake.lock in one commit and gives
every hive's forge account read on the repo. A render equal to the
committed flake.nix sends no lock and commits nothing.
It runs at start, when hyperhive's main moves, before the deploy of a
merged config PR and before the first deploy of a new agent; those
deploys now wait for it. agent_web_port moves into hive-meta-flake so
both callers compute the same port; hive-c0re re-exports it.
On deploy: internal/meta appears on the forge and follows every merge.
No hive builds from it yet.
