`Coordinator::set_paused` wrote the marker directly with `std::fs::write`
from hive-c0re, which runs as the unprivileged `hive-core` user. The
agent's harness dir is chowned to the agent user on every container boot
(`user.nix`'s activation chown), mode 0755 — so hive-core can stat the
marker but gets EACCES creating or unlinking it. Pause therefore only
ever worked on an agent that had never booted; the read side works
because a stat needs traverse, not write, which is why the paused pill
and `is_paused` looked healthy.
Route both directions through hive-priv, the root helper that already
owns the other writes into agent-owned directories:
- `PrivRequest::SetAgentPaused { agent_name, paused }`, with the marker
filename constant moved to hive-priv-sock. That is the narrowest crate
all three sides share (hive-priv deliberately does not depend on
hive-sh4re, which re-exports it for the in-container resolver). A
private copy on any one side would break pause silently, since every
reader just sees "no marker".
- `write_agent_state_file` generalised to `write_agent_dir_file`, taking
the target directory: `state/` and `harness/` are both agent-owned,
which is the same reason both need root.
- resume unlinks via `remove_file`, which acts on the leaf and never
follows a symlink — an agent could otherwise plant a link at the
marker path and have root delete an arbitrary file.
`Coordinator::set_paused` becomes an async round-trip; its three call
sites were already async. Both directions stay idempotent because the
dashboard toggle and `hivectl pause|resume` fire without reading the
current state first.
Adds crate READMEs (matching the hive-claude precedent) and wires
readme = "README.md" into each Cargo.toml [package] for hive-jobq,
hive-host-sock, and hive-priv-sock — the crates squarely in the infra
lane. Each README leads with purpose + when-to-use and points at the
crate-root //! docs for depth rather than duplicating them.
First increment of the per-crate-README effort; the shape here is the
proposed template for the remaining crates (see issue discussion).
Part A of moving hive-ci runner registration off the boot-critical path.
Adds a root-side hive-priv op that writes the runner registration token to
the host env-file /run/hive-ci/runner-token (in-place, preserving the inode
the container bind-mounts) and restarts the in-container gitea-runner-hive
unit. The forge admin token stays in hive-c0re; only the registration token
reaches the host env-file the container mounts read-only. The c0re-side
caller (ensure_ci_runner_registered) + the nix boot-path change land next on
this branch.
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.
