error-pages.nix paragraph (gateway.md:433) blamed a dead authelia
upstream on an empty user set; the real reason the route earns a
custom page is that a bare 502 there blames the proxy while the
gateway itself is fine. gateway.md:38 dropped 'yet' from the
placeholder-while-empty phrasing. services.md:109 corrected
'seeds an empty users database' to the disabled placeholder subject
swarm-authelia.nix actually seeds (swarm-authelia.nix:873).
Refs #3902
observability.md: "Why two tiers" claimed the harness currently writes an
upstream token into the agent's own claude settings; that path was removed
with the direct-export mode it served (nix/agent-modules/otel.nix:56-63).
Reworded as the hypothetical the paragraph is actually making.
gateway.md: restored the agent-trust pointer to
/run/hive-ca/trust-bundle.pem in "Cert prompts" (hive-ca-trust.nix:41),
dropped by the earlier rewrite. Corrected the SPA-fallback section: only
the chat.<swarm> vhost uses the Accept-header map
(hive-matrix.nix:693-696); per-agent split mode uses file-existence
try_files (gateway_nginx.rs:93-134), not the same mechanism.
Refs #3902
gateway.md: split the opener into what/audience/enable; vhost map in two
tables (swarm-service vhosts declared by their own modules, then the hive
vhost) matching vhosts.nix and the service modules; gateway.enable exists
and is set with mkDefault by the modules that need it; Basic auth scope,
dashboard /health/ prefix, error-page rendering, matrix body limit and
forge link source corrected; nginx internals grouped under one Internals
section with their headings unchanged.
network.md: gateway and dnsmasq run on the host, not in a container;
network.enable is set by the modules that need it; shared-netns firewall
rule covers every swarm service container; hive-priv writes the nspawn
conf; domain sentence rewritten; removed options moved into <details>.
jobq.md: swarm-controller runs its own graph; swarm UI /jobs and BU1LDS
show different graphs drawn by the same component.
observability.md: swarm tier first; history narration cut; network access
deduplicated into a link to network.md; options link made absolute.
matrix.md: swarm.matrix vs deploy.matrix namespaces; tuning, firewall and
SSO options under deploy.matrix; .well-known is served on the hive domain;
roadmap sentence deleted; stale hive-c0re provisioning claims fixed;
serverName upgrade note moved into <details>.
Refs #3902
Moves the "Harness systemd unit shape" section from
docs/agent-lifecycle/agent-roster.md into docs/turn-loop/README.md: it
describes the per-agent harness systemd unit (env vars, PATH wiring,
serviceConfig), which is turn-loop material, not roster material.
Fixes two facts while moving: the ExecStart package is `hive-agent`,
not `hyperhive` (no package by that name exists); and `ruth.nix`
doesn't set any forge subscription default — it only defaults
`services.hyperhive.agent.docs.enable`.
Updates the inbound pointers in docs/turn-loop/config.md and the
module comment at nix/agent-modules/agent-service.nix.
Refs #3902
The previous commit removed dashboard.md's M4TR1X section. These
comments and the `deploy.matrix.gui.enable` option description still
described a hive-dashboard M4TR1X tab or cited that section. They now
state what the option does: it serves the client on the gateway vhost
and adds the swarm UI's Matrix quick link (docs/swarm/ui.md::Quick links).
Refs #3902
Per mara's review: the hive UI doc covers only what hive-c0re's pages
render. Removed the M4TR1X page section (the hive gateway redirects
/matrix/ to the swarm matrix client, which the swarm UI's quick links
open), the swarm-UI forge/matrix account-linking lines from the
CR3D3NTIALS section, the infra-services hivectl paragraph, and the H0M3
Matrix/Forge absence line. Added a single pointer to docs/swarm/ui.md,
and stated the account-linking and Matrix quick-link facts there.
Refs #3902
Removes the remaining #system/Settings stale facts and absent-thing
mentions argus's review flagged, plus 5 more lines mara's rule-3 audit
found in the same file (named a nonexistent field/state instead of
stating current behaviour).
Refs #3902
Rewrites 12 sentences in docs/web-ui/dashboard.md that described
current state as a change from something earlier (moved/no longer/
gone/was) or stated what a field/page doesn't exist without saying
what replaced it. Verified each against the current code at forge/main
before rewriting.
Refs #3902
The swarm.domain assertion in hive-network.nix fired on every host that
imported the module, so a host that enables nothing failed eval. It now
fires only when one of the hyperhive service switches is on (every
deploy.*.enable that runs something, gateway, gateway.dns, network,
otel, snapshotStore). The requirement itself is unchanged: any host that
runs a hyperhive service still needs swarm.domain.
The core-toggle module-eval suite gains a case: a missing swarm.domain is
refused on a hive and on a swarm-service-only host, and a host enabling
nothing passes every assertion.
Closes#4887
Per mara's #4879 review (89815): the system has no agent hierarchy,
just a flat set scoped by the capability store, so the filename no
longer matched. The file already read "Agent roster & privileges"
after the earlier facts pass; rename it to match, and update the
four inbound references (docs/README.md, coordinator.md, config.md,
agent-service.nix).
Review fixes for #4879 (argus):
- mcp.md: the 'Waking the agent' cross-ref pointed at Core tools, which
never mentions UpsertTodo/HIVE_AGENT_SOCKET. Point it at
docs/tools/bash.md's 'Completion as a todo (loose-ends v2)' section,
which documents the actual upsert/signal/clear mechanism.
- conventions.md 'Wake injection': still framed AgentRequest::Wake (a
type that no longer exists) as the live wake surface with matrix/forge
as callers. hive_core_agent_sock::Request::Wake has exactly one
non-test reference on origin/main (the handler at
socket_server/mod.rs:307) and no client; matrix/bash/forge all moved
to the in-agent todo socket. Rewritten to match, linking mcp.md's
'Waking the agent' section instead of duplicating it.
docs/tools/matrix.md:136-137 has the same stale AgentRequest::Wake claim
(and contradicts its own :159-165) but is out of scope (#4136) — noted
as a follow-up in the PR body instead of edited.
mcp.md:
- matrix and subagent extra MCP servers are http (hive-matrix-daemon,
hive-subagent-daemon), not stdio; screen is the one entry that still
uses the stdio default (nix/agent-modules/matrix.nix:290-297,
screen.nix:22-25)
- set_status is always-on, not meta-group-gated; mark_todos_done (also
always-on) was undocumented (hive-sh4re/src/permissions.rs:151,
hive-agent-mcp/src/mcp/mod.rs:425)
- System messages: HelperEvent has 3 variants, not the 8 previously
listed; ApprovalResolved/ContainerCrash routing and the swarm-wide
NATS notices stream (swarm_notices.rs) replace the old per-agent
todo-wake description for rebuilt/killed/destroyed/logged_in/needs_login
- get_loose_ends's approval rows are manager-only; PendingMessages and
UnreadMatrix were missing from the description
(hive-sh4re/src/inbox.rs:127-184)
- subagent spawning runs on hive-runtime (claude or ACP), not
claude-only (hive-subagent-mcp/src/session.rs:77)
- Waking section: matrix/bash/forge all moved to the in-agent todo
socket; the host Wake request has no built-in caller left today
agent-hierarchy.md:
- distinguished the swarm-wide agent roster (swarm-controller's
identity store, authoritative) from the hive-local topology.json
(a derived, reconciled cache scoping ManageRootAgent's bind-mounts),
linking README's framing
- noted services.hyperhive.ruthless (a hive can run with no manager at
all)
- Wire-protocol bullet: the only privileged Request variants left are
the scheduling ops; Kill/Start/Restart/Update/GetLogs don't exist on
this socket
- Prompt/tools: prompt::render hardcodes the agent role for every
container today (role:manager blocks are dead code); the tool
allow-list has no Flavor switch, it's HIVE_TOOL_GROUPS same as any
agent
Not touched: agent-hierarchy.md:140-200 (Harness systemd unit shape,
kept in place — see PR follow-ups) and docs/agent-lifecycle/approvals.md
(blocked on #4853).
authelia 4.39.20 exits at startup on `users: {}` ("users: non zero value
required"), and the first-boot unit seeded exactly that, so a swarm with
no users crash-looped authelia and answered 502 until `swarmctl user add`
ran.
The first-boot unit now writes one subject, `swarm.placeholder`, when
the users database is absent, empty, or exactly `users: {}`:
- `disabled: true` — authelia returns "user not found" for a disabled
user before any password check (file_user_provider.go,
CheckUserPassword).
- password: an argon2id digest with an all-zero key. It decodes (authelia
rejects a non-digest at startup) and no known password hashes to it.
- the `.` keeps it out of agent names (`[a-z0-9-]`), and `swarmctl user
add` refuses it as already existing. Neither writer removes users, and
both round-trip `disabled`.
A file with any user in it is never touched.
The docs that described the crash-loop (sso.md, gateway.md, setup.md,
the sso-unavailable error page) now describe the placeholder; the
writers' load_store docs and the seed fixtures follow. module-eval
nats-authelia asserts the seed branch.
swarm-controller/README.md "What it does" was still missing two route
groups argus caught: linked external matrix/forge accounts
(PUT .../matrix-accounts/{account}, .../forge-accounts/{label}) and
config-PR status (GET /api/config-prs, /api/agents/{name}/config-pr).
Verified against the router at main.rs:2874-2899.
swarm/README.md opens with the swarm and its control plane; hive identity
and the directory follow as the substrate. Upgrade notes move into a
<details> block, the per-agent queue publishing detail into another, and
the one-paragraph pointer sections collapse into a link list.
Fact fixes, checked against origin/main:
- an empty swarm.hives fails eval (swarm.nix:341-354); it does not mean
"not in a swarm"
- swarm.domain is required with a hive (hive-network.nix:156,188), hiveName
with a hive, store or homeserver (hyperhive.nix:161-166)
- the matrix container trusts the hive's trust-bundle.pem at runtime under
self-signed certs (hive-matrix.nix:1046-1052, lib/hive-ca-trust.nix:76-85)
- singleHostSwarm also defaults the controller, localHostsEntry, the nats
callout keys and the bao bootstrap token path (local-defaults.nix:72-129)
- swarm-controller serves far more than /health: roster, wanted state, job
graph, agent creation and credential mints (main.rs:2874-2899)
- swarmctl user add needs --email for the forge account and refuses an
existing user (setup.md:67-71, swarmctl/src/main.rs:425-430); document
agent mint-identity and mint-forge-token
- agent creation also mints store identity, forge token and matrix
account, and declares the agent paused (main.rs:1822-1920, 247-248)
Refs #3902
frontend/README.md:
- swarm-ui has real pages (HivesPage, AgentsPage, JobsPage,
CreateAgentForm, IssueReportPage, account-linking forms, routed in
App.tsx) and is served via nix/host-modules/swarm-ui.nix +
swarm-controller's swarm-ui-facing endpoints — drop the stale
package.json-derived 'no functionality yet' claim
- dashboard is a vanilla-JS + custom-element MPA (core.js, common.js,
tabs.js, ...) with a couple of Preact-rendered pages (builds.js,
swarm.js), not uniformly Preact like agent/swarm-ui
- drop the build.mjs line-count guess (actual: agent=93,
dashboard=134, swarm-ui=167)
- frontend/README.md: list the missing packages/swarm-ui package, fix
the vanilla-JS claim (all packages depend on preact), and the
deprecated hyperhive.frontend.extraFiles spelling
- hive-c0re/README.md: hive-c0re no longer provisions per-agent
forge/matrix accounts (swarm-controller does); it wires gateway
vhosts and reconciles forge/matrix config
- hive-metric/README.md: OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS is never set by
the harness and has no way to be set
- hive-agent-sock/README.md: fix the deprecated
hyperhive.extraMcpServers spelling
- docs/process/gotchas.md: fix a dangling hive-ag3nt/ path, the real
directory is hive-agent/
Also fixes pre-existing vale error-level alerts (passive voice,
Microsoft.Auto, Microsoft.Contractions) in the same files so
prose-lint-errors passes clean.
The old FORGES tab wrote forge-<label>-token/forge-<label>.json directly;
the swarm-fetch unit that replaced it never deletes a pair for a label it
doesn't list, so those files keep being read by hive-forge -f <label>
until the operator links an account under the same label in the swarm UI,
which overwrites both files (nix/agent-modules/forge-accounts.nix:11-13,159-176).
hive-matrix-daemon removes undeclared matrix-token-<name> files on
every start (hive-matrix-mcp/src/main.rs:100), so there is no window
where an account linked through the old per-agent MATRIX tab keeps
working — it must be declared via matrixAccounts at swarm/agent
level.
Frame the turn loop runtime-neutrally: every turn runs through
hive-runtime, on claude (default) or an ACP agent. The loop steps,
harness binary shape and hive-agent README now say so; claude-only
failure detection gets its own heading; claude-invocation.md opens with
its scope and links the ACP side to hive-runtime/README.md.
Fact fixes: on-boot file paths (/run/hive-config, not /run/hive),
hive-claude is a crates.io dependency with no README here, hive-agent
has no client.rs or forge_notify.rs, the claude launch-config layer is
hive-agent's mcp_config.rs, agent forge/matrix accounts are
swarm-controller's, hive-c0re's dashboard is dashboard/, and the
deprecated hyperhive.gui.enable / hyperhive.extraMcpServers spellings.
Refs #3902
- hivectl/README.md: split matrix.rs/github.rs into accurate per-module
lines (matrix.rs invites a matrix user to the hive Space/room,
cli.rs:289-296; it is not per-agent). Fixed the summary line's
'provisioning verbs' to name the actual verb groups left after the
facts pass.
- web-ui/README.md: the swarm/ui.md pointer no longer promises roster/
creating-agents/linking-accounts content that page doesn't have.
- Reverted the unrelated doesn't/does not drive-by at hivectl/README.md:5.
docs/web-ui/README.md now frames itself as the per-hive dashboard (host
approvals, container state, rebuild queue) and points to swarm/ui.md for
swarm-wide day to day, matching the README's swarm-first reframe.
Credentials page fixes: it has only a GitHub PAT tab now (2c7e586f
removed the FORGES tab and moved external forge accounts to the swarm
UI; credentials.html never had a matrix tab).
hivectl/README.md: agents.rs has no create verb (hivectl-cli.md has no
'create' entry; agents.rs's create is swarm-level, swarmctl agent
create). forge.rs reconciles config, it doesn't provision an account;
matrix.rs/github.rs do agent-scoped invites/token writes; gateway.rs
manages the gateway's own htpasswd users — split out of the former
single 'per-integration account/token provisioning' line.
Fix the 4 pre-existing vale error-level hits on main (docs/README.md:83,
docs/getting-started/setup.md:11,127, docs/swarm/bao.md:4) that fail CI's
prose-lint-errors job for every docs PR regardless of its own diff.
