docs/web-ui.md (1315 lines) split into three sub-files:
- docs/web-ui/shape.md — shared SPA skeleton, SSE multiplexing,
Worker-death self-heal, terminal pane, listener bind, relative
paths, atomic repaint, side panel
- docs/web-ui/dashboard.md — SW4RM/Y3R/SYST3M/SCH3DUL3S/S3TT1NGS
tabs, container row, topology tree, selection bar, approval card,
dashboard endpoints + event channel
- docs/web-ui/agent.md — header, terminal, composer, inbox, live
view, slash commands, per-agent endpoints, stats page
docs/web-ui.md replaced with a thin index linking all three.
Section anchors in docs (gateway.md, gotchas.md), Rust doc comments
(hive-ag3nt/src/web_ui.rs), and nix/templates/weston-vnc.nix updated
to point at the correct sub-file. README and CLAUDE.md file-map
updated with sub-file links. Inline // comments in frontend source
left unchanged (they reference the index which redirects to the right
sub-file).
Two new sections housing rationale that was inline in
`harness-base.nix`:
- `docs/conventions.md::Best-effort oneshot services` — shape
contract shared by `tea-login`, `forge-avatar-sync`, and
`matrix-avatar-sync`: always exit 0, no `set -e`, skip silently
on missing prerequisites, wired to multi-user.target,
re-runnable. Plus the artefact-under-agent-home + service-stays-
root posture and the operator-visible-via-journalctl trade-off.
- `docs/persistence.md::matrix-avatar-sync` — the two-step `media
upload` → `set avatar_url` matrix-spec dance + why
`RemainAfterExit = false` (so the `.path` watcher's re-fire on
token appearance actually re-executes the unit).
In-code comments trim to one-liner purpose + pointers; the script
bodies stay (they're the actual implementation) but their inline
`#` rationale comments collapse where the docs cover them.
`description = ''…''` blocks (operator-facing options docs)
preserved per iris #718.
`nix flake check` clean; `nix fmt` clean.
closes#815. last harness-side piece of the #784 phase 2 rollout.
new option `hyperhive.web.useUnixSocket` (default false). When true,
the harness service env gets HIVE_WEB_SOCKET set to the canonical
/run/hive-agent/${userName}/web.sock path — making web_ui::serve
bind a UnixListener (PR #800) instead of TCP. Path matches
hive_c0re::agent_sockets::socket_path_for(name) so the c0re
bind-mount (#813) and the gateway's eventual upstream config all
derive from the same canonical shape (no triangulation drift).
Default false so an agent's web UI keeps binding TCP until the
per-agent flip is explicit. Rollout shape:
1. flip one canary agent (atlas volunteered) to true via agent.nix
2. validate atlas's gateway-side step 3 against that canary
3. flip remaining agents per-agent as the gateway side soaks
4. eventually drop this option once everyone's on unix (step 4 of #784)
Sub-agent-only by design — manager UI serves at / via the c0re
dashboard upstream, never via /agent/<name>/, so the per-agent
unix path is irrelevant for it (the env var is set unconditionally
for code simplicity; the manager's bind socket would just sit
unused).
Move the harness systemd unit rationale (role-driven unit name,
manager-only forge defaults, PATH wrapper-dir trick, env vars,
standalone-eval fallbacks, RuntimeDirectory + User= reasoning)
from `nix/templates/harness-base.nix` to a new
`docs/agent-hierarchy.md::Harness systemd unit shape (per-role)`
section.
In-code comments trim to short purpose statements + pointers; the
PATH /bin auto-append behaviour is already documented in
docs/gotchas.md, so the harness file just cross-refs both.
`description = ''…''` blocks (operator-facing options docs)
preserved per iris #718.
`nix flake check` clean; `nix fmt` clean (after formatter pass).
mara: 'if we replace it with one thing, that should be named more
generic so we dont have to change it for future additions'.
extract the BASH_ENV plumbing into a shared shape:
- new internal option `hyperhive._bashEnvFragments` (types.lines)
accumulates shell snippets across feature modules.
- file path is now `/etc/hyperhive/bash-env.sh` (was the
cargo-specific bash-cargo-short.sh).
- the file + BASH_ENV + interactiveShellInit are gated on
`_bashEnvFragments != """ so a fully feature-disabled agent has
no overhead.
cargo function moves to a `lib.mkIf cargo.shortMessages` contribution
to `_bashEnvFragments` — same behaviour, no rename when the next
hook (nix-env helper, claude-cmd helpers, whatever) lands.
closes#777. saves tokens by collapsing per-crate progress lines into
warning/error summaries when claude (or the operator) runs cargo
inside an agent container.
implementation: /etc/hyperhive/bash-cargo-short.sh defines a 'cargo'
bash function that injects '--message-format short' on compile
subcommands (build/check/clippy/test/run/doc/bench/install/rustc/fix).
loaded via BASH_ENV in non-interactive shells (claude's Bash tool
runs 'bash -c') and via programs.bash.interactiveShellInit in
interactive shells (operator SSH inside the container).
handles the '+toolchain' selector (cargo +nightly build), skips
injection when the caller already passes --message-format (any
form), leaves third-party cargo-* subcommands alone.
new option: hyperhive.cargo.shortMessages (default true) — agents
that parse cargo json output should set false.
iris's #718 scope: move substantive design context from `#` comment
blocks in `nix/` to corresponding `docs/` files, leave short
references in code. iris handed it back to me on #10114 since
nix/ is my lane + #775 established the pattern.
First pass — three highest-density blocks in harness-base.nix:
1. **First-boot agent-user migration** (~70 lines → `~20 lines code +
short ref` in the activation script). Substantive prose moves to
new `docs/persistence.md::First-boot agent-user migration (post-#658)`
section explaining the 4 steps the script performs + the eventual
removability of the marker-guarded body.
2. **nix-daemon `sandbox-fallback = true`** (10-line block → 5-line
ref). New `docs/gotchas.md::Containerized nix-daemon needs
sandbox-fallback = true` section covers the user-namespaces
rationale + nixpkgs-default override.
3. **Matrix daemon + token-arrival trigger** (~50 lines across two
systemd units → ~10 lines code + short refs). New
`docs/persistence.md::Matrix per-agent daemon + token-arrival
trigger` covers the socket-path rationale, the runtime-dir
ownership story, and the first-boot ordering pattern.
Net: harness-base.nix -84 lines, docs +74 lines. Substantive design
context moves to durable docs; in-code refs follow iris's pattern
from her #712 batches (`see docs/<file>::<section>`).
Follow-ups: hive-c0re.nix, hive-forge.nix, hive-matrix.nix (already
trimmed via #775 but a couple of remaining blocks could go), and
the smaller files in #718's scope table. Shipping this first to get
the pattern reviewed before larger batches.
Verified: `nix eval` on agent-base toplevel still resolves.
systemd.services.<name>.path appends /bin to each entry, so the
literal '/run/wrappers/bin' here was being expanded to
'/run/wrappers/bin/bin' inside the unit's PATH — a path that
doesn't exist. 'which sudo' then fell back to
'/run/current-system/sw/bin/sudo' (the non-setuid nix-store binary)
and refused with 'must be owned by uid 0 and have the setuid bit
set' on every agent, despite hyperhive.user.passwordlessSudo = true.
Verified on this container post-rebuild:
PATH includes /run/wrappers/bin/bin (non-existent)
/run/wrappers/bin/sudo exists with mode r-s--x--x (real setuid)
but `sudo` resolves to /run/current-system/sw/bin/sudo and fails.
Fix: drop the trailing /bin from both entries. systemd appends it.
The /run/current-system/sw entry was already correctly
expanding to /run/current-system/sw/bin (because of the same
auto-append), which is why everything else on PATH worked despite
the broken wrappers entry — only sudo (the one binary that needs
the wrapper dir) was affected.
The merge of #676 (commit 0951cd1) landed the role-driven harness service
in `harness-base.nix` but the rebase resolution accidentally kept the
legacy `systemd.services.hive-ag3nt` / `hive-m1nd` blocks in
agent-base.nix and manager.nix. Module merging silently accepts the
duplicate definitions because they evaluate to identical attrs — but
the whole point of #671 was to single-source the systemd unit + manager
forge defaults.
Collapses both templates to bare role-setters as originally intended:
{ ... }: {
imports = [ ./harness-base.nix ];
hyperhive.role = "agent"; # or "manager"
}
Verified post-collapse:
- `nixosConfigurations.agent-base.config.systemd.services.hive-ag3nt
.serviceConfig.ExecStart` -> `.../bin/hive-ag3nt serve`
- `nixosConfigurations.manager.config.systemd.services.hive-m1nd
.serviceConfig.ExecStart` -> `.../bin/hive-m1nd serve`
- `agent-base` `.path` is `[ /run/wrappers/bin /run/current-system/sw ... ]`
- `manager` `.environment.HIVE_PORT` is `"8000"`
Follow-up to #671 (#676). No behaviour change — the duplicate
definitions were merging to the same values; this just deletes the
redundant copies so `harness-base.nix` is the true single source.
argus on #676🔴: this PR deletes agent-base.nix + manager.nix and
moves the harness service to harness-base.nix without carrying
forward damocles's #672 fix (which adds `/run/wrappers/bin` to the
service PATH so the setuid sudo wrapper resolves before the bare
nix-store binary).
Pull the #672 fix forward: prepend `/run/wrappers/bin` to the unified
harness service's path list. Same shape as damocles's diff on
agent-base + manager, but applied once in harness-base.nix.
Without this, post-#658 `sudo` inside the container resolves to the
un-setuid nix-store binary and refuses with "must be owned by uid 0
and have the setuid bit set" even when
`hyperhive.user.passwordlessSudo = true` is configured.
Verified via `nix eval`:
- agent-base.systemd.services.hive-ag3nt.path[0] = "/run/wrappers/bin" ✓
- manager.systemd.services.hive-m1nd.path[0] = "/run/wrappers/bin" ✓
#672 (damocles) supersedes when this lands — the two changes are
equivalent and the consolidated harness-base.nix is now the canonical
home for the fix.
mara on #671: "manager should not be as special anymore."
Single `harness-base.nix` now declares the harness systemd unit + the
manager-only forge defaults, driven by a new `hyperhive.role` option
(`"agent"` | `"manager"`, default `"agent"`). The two child templates
collapse to thin role-setters.
Mechanics:
- `hyperhive.role = "agent"` → `systemd.services.hive-ag3nt` running
`hive-ag3nt serve`, default forge notification surface.
- `hyperhive.role = "manager"` → `systemd.services.hive-m1nd` running
`hive-m1nd serve`, forge `keepSubscriptions = false` +
`skipNotifyReasons = [ "subscribed" "participating" ]` (mentions-
only inbox), plus standalone-eval fallbacks `HIVE_PORT = "8000"` +
`HIVE_LABEL = "hm1nd"` (meta.rs overrides via the generated
`applied/hm1nd/flake.nix`).
`agent-base.nix` (62 → 9 lines) and `manager.nix` (79 → 18 lines) are
now thin shims that just set the role and import `harness-base.nix`.
External surface unchanged: `nixosModules.{agent-base, manager}` +
`nixosConfigurations.{agent-base, manager}` still resolve identically.
meta.rs's role selection (`if isManager then hyperhive.nixosConfigurations.manager
else hyperhive.nixosConfigurations.agent-base`) keeps working without
edits.
Verified via `nix eval`:
- agent-base: role="agent", services=["hive-ag3nt"], forge.keepSubscriptions=true
- manager: role="manager", services=["hive-m1nd"], forge.keepSubscriptions=false,
forge.skipNotifyReasons=["subscribed","participating"],
ExecStart=hive-m1nd/bin
Closes#671.
Per [mara on PR #615 comment 7349](http://localhost:3000/hyperhive/hyperhive/pulls/615#issuecomment-7349):
> follow nix conventions, services.hyperhive it is. the earlier we
> change this, the less breakage.
Renames the entire host-side option tree under `services.hyperhive.*`:
- `services.hive-c0re.*` → `services.hyperhive.c0re.*`
- `hyperhive.enable` → `services.hyperhive.enable`
- `hyperhive.domain` → `services.hyperhive.domain`
- `hyperhive.forge.*` → `services.hyperhive.forge.*`
- `hyperhive.matrix.*` → `services.hyperhive.matrix.*`
Per mara's "earlier = less breakage", the previous `services.hive-c0re.enable`
deprecation alias is dropped. Operators get a clear eval error on the
old paths pointing at the rename. Single migration moment.
Per-agent options in `nix/templates/harness-base.nix` (`hyperhive.model`,
`hyperhive.allowedRecipients`, etc.) stay at `hyperhive.*` — they're
container-level config, not services in the NixOS sense.
Verified via `nix flake check --no-build` + an end-to-end NixOS eval
exercising every renamed path.
Follow-up needed: rust source comments referencing the old NixOS
option names (`hive-c0re/src/{meta,coordinator,main,dashboard}.rs`)
should be updated in a separate pure-rust PR to keep this one
strictly nix-only.
- Move options.services.hive-c0re → options.hyperhive.c0re
- Add options.hyperhive.enable to auto-enable c0re + subsystems
- Add deprecation alias for services.hive-c0re.enable (backward compat)
- Update doc references in README, flake.nix, docs, harness-base.nix
- Simplifies config: 'hyperhive.enable = true' now enables everything
Existing operator configs using services.hive-c0re.enable will
continue to work but emit a deprecation warning. Aligns the option
namespace with the existing hyperhive.* family (matrix, forge, domain).
fixes#612
Cuts every `include_bytes!`/`include_str!` of a non-rust path in
the workspace over to runtime file loads from `$HIVE_ASSETS_DIR`
(the `hyperhive-assets` derivation introduced in the previous
commit). After this commit the rust derivation has no compile-time
dependency on `branding/*` or `hive-ag3nt/prompts/*` anymore.
Call-site flips:
- `hive-c0re/src/forge.rs::CORE_AVATAR_PNG` /
`CONFIG_ORG_AVATAR_PNG`: were `include_bytes!` of
`branding/hyperhive.png` and `$OUT_DIR/agent-configs.png`. Now
`ensure_core_avatar` / `ensure_config_org_avatar` `tokio::fs::read`
via `hive_sh4re::assets::{core_avatar_png, config_org_avatar_png}`
at startup. The `agent-configs.png` is now rendered by the
`hyperhive-assets` derivation's rsvg-convert step (was
`hive-c0re/build.rs` + librsvg on the rust derivation's
nativeBuildInputs — both gone in the next commit).
- `hive-ag3nt/src/prompt.rs::TEMPLATE`: `render` now takes the
template as an argument; `write_system_prompt` reads it once from
`$HIVE_ASSETS_DIR/prompts/system.md` before calling render. The
test module still `include_str!`s the production template so
`cargo test --workspace` doesn't need `HIVE_ASSETS_DIR` set —
this is the only remaining compile-time reference to the file
from the rust workspace, gated to `#[cfg(test)]`.
- `hive-ag3nt/src/turn.rs::CLAUDE_SETTINGS`: was `include_str!`'d
and written via `tokio::fs::write`; now `tokio::fs::copy` from
`$HIVE_ASSETS_DIR/prompts/claude-settings.json` into the
per-agent socket dir.
- `hive-ag3nt/src/web_ui.rs::DEFAULT_ICON`: was `include_str!`'d;
now read on-demand from `$HIVE_ASSETS_DIR/branding/hyperhive.svg`
inside `serve_icon`. Falls back to an empty body if missing so
the endpoint never panics on a misconfigured container (matches
the existing "per-agent icon.svg override" fallthrough).
`HIVE_ASSETS_DIR` wiring:
- Inside containers: `nix/templates/harness-base.nix`
`environment.variables` sets it to
`${pkgs.hyperhive-assets}/share/hyperhive` (resolved through
the default overlay applied in `mkContainer`). Verified by
building `agent-base-toplevel` and grepping the resulting
`/etc/set-environment`.
- Host-side: `nix/modules/hive-c0re.nix` adds an `assets` option
defaulting to `hyperhive.packages.${system}.assets`, threaded
in from the flake's nixosModules wiring, and sets the same env
var on the `hive-c0re` systemd unit so the daemon's
`forge::ensure_*_avatar` startup hooks find the PNGs.
`hive-c0re/build.rs` deleted entirely; `[package].build` removed
from `hive-c0re/Cargo.toml`; rsvg-convert dependency lives in the
assets derivation only.
Validated: `nix build .#default .#checks.x86_64-linux.clippy
.#agent-base-toplevel .#manager-toplevel --fallback` all succeed.
`/etc/set-environment` in the toplevel shows
`HIVE_ASSETS_DIR="/nix/store/.../hyperhive-assets-0.1.0/share/hyperhive"`.
damocles suggested using lib.types.strMatching for the target option
itself rather than relying solely on the post-hoc assertion. Pattern:
`^[A-Za-z0-9_][A-Za-z0-9_./-]*$` — first char alphanumeric/_, then
alphanumerics + _ + . + / + - allowed (so nested layouts like
"games/bitburner" still work).
This rejects at type-check time:
- leading `/` (absolute paths)
- leading `.` (so `..` as a full string blocked, also `./foo`)
- leading `-` (would parse as flag by some tools)
- spaces, control chars, weird unicode
The existing assertion stays — it catches mid-path `..` segments
(`foo/../bar`) that the regex can't reject without lookahead. POSIX
regex (which nix uses) doesn't support lookahead, so the
type-and-assertion split is the cleanest expression.
Refs #273.
Follow-up to PR #350 review:
1. New assertion: hyperhive.frontend.extraFiles[*].target must be a
relative path inside the static dir — leading '/' and '..'
segments rejected at config eval time. Belt-and-braces against
string-concat-into-paths escapes (the boundary doc flags this
pattern even though agent.nix goes through operator review).
2. Documented overwrite semantics in the option doc: collision with
a default-dist path or with a prior entry's target is a hard-fail
(`refusing to overwrite existing path …`). To override a default
file, fork `hyperhive.frontend.dist` instead — extraFiles is
pure additions.
The collision-hard-fail behaviour was already implemented in
`mergedDist` (in commit a19e156); this commit just makes the
contract explicit in the docstring.
Refs #273, addresses damocles' notes on PR #350.
Phase 3 of #273. Container plumbing for the bundled frontend dist:
- flake.nix overlay: `pkgs.hyperhive-frontend` exposed for the
agent / manager containers (mirrors the existing `pkgs.hyperhive`
pattern); module argument `hyperhiveFrontend = system: self
.packages.${system}.frontend` threads the package into the host
hive-c0re module without forcing operators to apply the overlay
on their host pkgs.
- `services.hive-c0re.frontend` option: pinned to the flake's
frontend package by default, overridable for custom dashboard
SPAs. The hive-c0re systemd service gets `HIVE_STATIC_DIR =
${cfg.frontend}/dashboard` — the Rust binary will pick it up
in Phase 4.
- `hyperhive.frontend.dist` option: per-container, defaults to
`pkgs.hyperhive-frontend`. Override to ship a fully custom
agent SPA (advanced; the default + extraFiles flow handles the
common 'add files' case).
- `hyperhive.frontend.extraFiles` option: attrsOf submodule
(mirroring the `hyperhive.extraMcpServers` shape per damocles'
request so existing #322-style assertions keep their grip).
Each entry has `source` (path relative to agent.nix) and
`target` (URL/disk prefix within the merged static tree,
defaulting to the attribute name). Operator-named example:
the bitburner agent drops `bitburner-dist` into
`/bitburner/` alongside the default agent UI at `/`.
- `hyperhive.frontend.mergedDist` (readOnly): the runCommand
derivation that composes `agent/` from the default dist plus
every `extraFiles` entry. Aborts on overwrite so a filename
collision becomes a build error rather than a silent dist swap.
agent-base.nix + manager.nix set their respective systemd
service `HIVE_STATIC_DIR` to this merged path.
Until Phase 4 lands, the env var is set but unused — the Rust
binaries still serve assets via `include_str!`. The cutover
happens in the next commit on this branch.
