new POST /api/compact on the per-agent web UI: spawns
turn::compact_session in the background so the http handler returns
immediately. claude runs '/compact' over the persistent --continue
session; output streams into the live panel like any other turn.
slash command /compact wired to the new endpoint. SLASH_COMMANDS list
now lists all four (/help /clear /cancel /compact). postCancelTurn +
postCompact share a postSimple() helper.
deliberately not gated against an in-flight turn — claude's own
session lock will reject a concurrent compact and the failure
surfaces as a Note in the live panel.
ask_operator now accepts a multi: bool. when true and options is
non-empty, the dashboard renders the choices as checkboxes — operator
picks any subset, answer comes back as a ', '-joined string. when
false (default), options are radio buttons.
independent of multi, a free-text input ('or type your own…') is
always rendered alongside options so the operator is never trapped
by an incomplete list. submit merges checked options + free text into
the single 'answer' field.
schema migration: operator_questions grows a multi INTEGER column
with a one-shot ALTER TABLE on open. backward compatible — old rows
default to 0 (not multi).
prompt + mcp tool description updated; existing dashboard css for
.qform was rewritten around the new vertical layout.
new POST /api/cancel on the per-agent web UI: shells out
pkill -INT claude (procps added to harness-base.nix). emits a Note
on the bus so the operator sees the cancel landed; state goes back
to idle when run_claude wakes and emits TurnEnd as usual.
frontend:
- /cancel slash command in the terminal input
- ■ cancel turn button in the state row, visible only while
state === 'thinking' (driven from the same SSE-based state
machine). disabled briefly during the POST.
claude gets SIGINT (not TERM) so it flushes anything in-flight and
emits a final result row before exiting.
hive_ag3nt::events::Bus replaces its in-memory VecDeque with a sqlite-
backed store at /state/hyperhive-events.sqlite (overridable via
HYPERHIVE_EVENTS_DB). emit() inserts a row; history() reads back the
most recent 2000 events. survives harness restart now — operator reload
mid-investigation no longer wipes the trail.
vacuum runs hourly (immediate first sweep): drop rows older than 7
days, then trim to 2000 newest. two-stage so a quiet agent keeps a
useful tail and a chatty one stays bounded. wired into both
hive-ag3nt and hive-m1nd via spawn_events_vacuum.
if the db open fails (e.g. no /state mount in dev), Bus runs in
no-store mode — events still broadcast, just nothing persisted.
new badge between the status line and the terminal. shows current
state with a glyph + label + age suffix (e.g. '🧠 thinking · 12s').
state transitions are driven from existing SSE turn_start/turn_end —
no harness changes needed. on page load, history backfill detects an
in-flight turn (turn_start without matching turn_end) and starts in
thinking. state-just-changed flash kicks in on each transition. age
timer ticks client-side every 1s.
compacting/napping states will be added when /compact and nap land —
their slots are reserved in the state enum, just unused for now.
drop the one-shot send/recv/kill/start/restart/request-spawn/request-
apply-commit subcommands from both in-container binaries. they were
debug-only — the host admin socket (`hive-c0re ...`) exposes the
same verbs and the manager mcp surface covers the rest from inside
claude. now each binary's --help shows just `serve` and `mcp`,
which are the only commands either is meant to be started with.
removes the `one_shot` helper and the `render` / `check` glue.
new rows no longer yank the view if the operator is scrolled up.
threshold for 'near bottom' is 48px. when not near bottom, an amber
'↓ N new' pill appears in the bottom-right of the terminal-wrap;
clicking it jumps to bottom. scrolling back near bottom clears the
counter. backfilled (history-replay) rows always scroll to bottom
since the operator hasn't started reading yet.
terminal height is now min(72vh, 60em) instead of a 32em strip — on a
1080p screen that's ~3x more visible lines. body max-width raised
to 110em so a wide window doesn't waste the available width on the
margin.
intercept any line starting with / before sending it to the agent inbox.
two commands today:
- /help — render command list locally
- /clear — wipe the local terminal view (server-side event history kept,
so a page reload restores it)
unknown /xxx surfaces an error row instead of being silently sent. tab
on a /prefix cycles through matching command names. submit-hint
mentions /help so the operator can discover it.
scaffolding for the bigger commands (/compact /cancel /model) is in
place — adding them later is a switch arm plus harness work.
swap the single-line <input> for an auto-growing <textarea>. enter
submits, shift+enter newlines, ime composition respected (skip submit
while isComposing). height caps at ~12em then scrolls. submit-hint
updates to '↵ send · ⇧↵ newline'. async-form handler now also clears
textareas on success.
agent terminal-wrap + dashboard msgflow get a translucent bg with
backdrop-filter blur+saturate so page-bg glow softens behind them.
new rows in the live panel and the dashboard message flow fade in
with a 4px slide-up. unread badge pulses; pending-operator-questions
section pulses its glow. history-backfilled rows skip the animation
(.no-anim) so the page doesn't stagger 100 fade-ins on load.
new manager tools mcp__hyperhive__{start,restart} that delegate to the
existing lifecycle::start / lifecycle::restart on the host. kill was
already at the manager's discretion; rounding out start + restart for
parity so day-to-day container care doesn't have to round-trip through
the operator.
guard: refuse self-targeting on kill/start/restart — the manager would
just be cutting its own legs. spawn (request_spawn) and config changes
(request_apply_commit) still go through the approval queue, since those
are the actual gate. prompt + claude.md updated to make the boundary
explicit. kill now also emits HelperEvent::Killed (it didn't before).
agent page restructure:
- send form moves into the terminal panel as a prompt-style row beneath
the live tail (status line stays above so it still reads as a header).
- live panel + prompt share a single bordered 'terminal-wrap' box.
- harness-alive / login-state status lines drop their decorative ascii
bookends; just a leading dot/glyph remains.
- banner gradient is now a real css gradient with a shimmer animation
toggled by an .active class. turn_start adds it, turn_end removes it.
dashboard side mirrors this: each broker sse event nudges a 4s
shimmer window.
- dashboard container rows drop their static ▓█▓▒░ / ▒░▒░░ glyph
prefixes; the role chips already disambiguate m1nd vs ag3nt.
- empty-state placeholders drop the ▓ bookends.
terminal pre-fill: hive-ag3nt::events::Bus grows a 500-event ring
buffer; new GET /events/history endpoint returns it. The agent JS
fetches history before opening the SSE stream so opening the page mid-
turn shows the last N events instead of a blank panel. The replay
walks turn_start/turn_end pairs to seed the banner-active state
correctly if a turn was still open.
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).
- tool_use renders per-tool (Read /path, Bash $ cmd, send → operator: ...)
- tool_result with >120 chars collapses into <details>; short ones inline
- session_init / result / rate_limit dropped from the panel
- thinking content shown inline if present, fallback indicator otherwise
- TurnStart carries unread count → header badge "· 3 unread"
- per-tool [status] line dropped from envelope; lives in wake prompt + UI
- send form moved below the live panel
- live panel themed as a terminal (crust bg, inset shadow, monospace)
