drop the /api/state-file/check probe endpoint (which let any
dashboard visitor enumerate filesystem layout by feeding paths)
and the client's optimistic-then-downgrade dance. instead, the
broker forwarder calls scan_validated_paths(body) — same
allow-list helper as the read endpoint — and attaches the
verified file tokens to DashboardEvent::Sent/Delivered as
file_refs: Vec<String>. /dashboard/history backfill does the
same per-row.
client appendLinkified takes a (text, refs) pair, walks
left-to-right linkifying every occurrence of any ref token,
longest-first tie-break. no regex, no probe, no cache, no
queue. when refs is empty/absent the body emits as plain text
(question/answer/reminder rendering — refs for those are a
follow-up).
operator inbox stores file_refs from the sent event so its
renderer gets the same anchors as the message-flow terminal.
new DashboardEvent::ContainerStateChanged + ContainerRemoved
close the last refetch loop on the dashboard. Coordinator's
rescan_containers_and_emit diffs a fresh container_view::build_all
against a cached last_containers map and fires per-row events.
called from actions::approve (post-spawn), actions::destroy,
the lifecycle_action wrapper, auto_update::rebuild_agent, and
the existing 10s crash_watch poll.
ContainerView extracted to its own module so coordinator and
dashboard can both build it. dashboard endpoints flip to 200;
container-lifecycle forms carry data-no-refresh. client drops
the periodic poll entirely — initial cold load + SSE for
everything afterwards. pending overlay reads from the existing
transientsState since the new event payload doesn't carry it.
PURG3 + meta-update keep the post-submit refetch since
tombstones + meta_inputs aren't event-derived yet; tracked in
TODO.md.
new forge module probes the hive-forge nixos-container (no-op when
absent), and ensures every agent + the manager has a forgejo user
named after them with an access token at `<state>/forge-token`
(visible inside the container as `/state/forge-token`).
idempotent: skips user creation when forgejo reports 'already
exists', skips token issuance when the file is present, scopes the
token to read:user,write:repository,write:issue. token-name suffixed
with a clock so re-issuing doesn't collide with a stale name. shells
out via `nixos-container run hive-forge -- runuser -u forgejo --
forgejo admin` (runuser instead of sudo since sudo isn't in the
container by default).
hooks: ensure_all sweeps existing containers at hive-c0re startup
(backgrounded), and the actions.rs spawn task calls ensure_user_for
the new agent right after lifecycle::spawn succeeds. failures log a
warning but don't abort spawn — a missing token is recoverable from
the next startup sweep.
new NixOS module option services.hive-c0re.operatorPronouns
(free text, default 'she/her', example 'they/them'). hive-c0re
takes it as a CLI flag (--operator-pronouns, lib.escapeShellArg'd
in the systemd unit), stores it on Coordinator, threads it into
the meta flake's mkAgent so each agent's systemd service gets
HIVE_OPERATOR_PRONOUNS set. the harness reads the env at boot
and substitutes {operator_pronouns} into the agent / manager
system prompt alongside {label}. nix string is escaped against
backslash + double-quote so non-ascii / quoted values
round-trip safely. prompt addendum: both agent.md and
manager.md mention the operator's pronouns up front so claude
uses them naturally in third-person reference. propagates on
next ↻ R3BU1LD (meta lock bump, no per-agent approval).
new migrate module runs before auto_update on hive-c0re boot.
four idempotent phases:
1. for every applied/<n>/ whose flake.nix isn't already the
module-only boilerplate, rewrite + commit + relocate
deployed/0 to HEAD so setup_applied's existence check passes
2. for every proposed/<n>/config without an 'applied' remote,
wire it (delegates to setup_proposed which is now
idempotent and adds the remote itself)
3. meta::sync_agents over the current container list — inits
the meta repo on first call, rerender + relock if drifted
4. nixos-container update <c> --flake meta#<name> for every
container, guarded by /var/lib/hyperhive/.meta-migration-done
so phase 4's expensive eval only runs once across restarts
env kill-switch HIVE_SKIP_META_MIGRATION=1 defers the whole
thing. each agent's failure is logged + skipped so one broken
agent doesn't block the rest. runs ahead of ensure_manager so
the manager auto-spawn comes up against meta from the first
attempt.
leaf module with no runtime callers yet (every public item is
#[allow(dead_code)] until lifecycle / actions / auto_update
rewire to use it). API surface:
- sync_agents — idempotent: render flake.nix for the given
agent set, git-init on first call, nix flake lock, commit if
anything changed.
- prepare_deploy / finalize_deploy / abort_deploy — two-phase
for the request_apply_commit path. prepare runs nix flake
lock --update-input agent-<n> without committing; finalize
commits with a 'deploy <n> deployed/<id> <sha12>' message;
abort git-restores the lock so a failed build leaves no
orphan commit.
- lock_update_hyperhive — one-shot for the auto-update path.
flake.nix template defines mkAgent that pulls each agent's
nixosModules.default from its input and wraps with the
identity / HIVE_PORT / HIVE_LABEL / HIVE_DASHBOARD_PORT
module — what setup_applied used to generate inline. nix
invocations carry --extra-experimental-features as a belt
in case flakes aren't enabled in nix.conf.
new hive_c0re::crash_watch task polls every 10s, builds the set of
currently-running containers, and on running→stopped transitions
checks the transient snapshot: if no Stopping / Restarting /
Destroying / Rebuilding flag is set, the container exited
unexpectedly and we fire HelperEvent::ContainerCrash into the
manager's inbox so it can react (typically: start it again).
first poll is a seeding pass — no events on harness startup. dbus
subscription would be lower-latency but polling is honest and
debuggable, and a 10s delay on crash detection is fine for our
scale.
manager prompt + approvals doc updated to advertise the new
event variant. todo drops the entry (and the journald-viewer
entry that already shipped).
five POST handlers (post_kill / post_restart / post_start / post_rebuild)
were all repeating the same boilerplate: strip prefix, set_transient,
call lifecycle::X, clear_transient, match the result. extract one
helper that takes the transient kind, error-message verb, the work
body, and an optional 'on success' tail (used by kill to also
unregister + emit HelperEvent::Killed). each handler shrinks to a
single lifecycle_action(..) call. zero behavior change.
retention is a host concern — agents have no business doing their
own cleanup, and a misbehaving harness could skip it. drop
spawn_events_vacuum from both hive-ag3nt and hive-m1nd, drop the
matching Bus::vacuum + EventStore::vacuum methods. new
hive_c0re::events_vacuum module sweeps every existing
agents/<name>/state/hyperhive-events.sqlite on the same hourly
cadence as the broker vacuum. same two-stage delete (older than 7
days, trim to 2000 newest). called from main alongside broker
vacuum.
also: server-side state badge entered into todo.md (today's badge
is derived client-side from sse, fine for idle/thinking but a
state machine that grows compacting/napping wants authoritative
status from the harness).
undelivered rows are always kept regardless of age (still in flight).
sweep runs immediately on serve start then every hour. logs row count
when non-zero. keep_secs is hard-coded for now (30 days); can be
config-driven later if a host wants to retain more / less for audit.
new --purge flag on the destroy verb (cli + admin socket + dashboard).
default destroy still keeps /var/lib/hyperhive/{agents,applied}/<name>/
so recreating with the same name reuses prior config + creds.
with --purge, both dirs go too (config history, claude creds, /state/
notes). no undo. dashboard adds a separate PURG3 button with an
explicit confirmation copy; the existing DESTR0Y button keeps the
soft semantics.
claude.md dashboard-action-surface section updated; todo entry
dropped.
new mcp tool on the manager surface that queues a question on the
dashboard and returns the question id immediately. operator submits an
answer via /answer-question/<id>; the dashboard fires
HelperEvent::OperatorAnswered { id, question, answer } into the manager
inbox so the next turn picks it up.
also: fix async-form button stuck on spinner after successful submit
(refreshState skipped re-rendering, so the button was never re-enabled).
