swarmctl hand-mirrored the controller's forge make-admin response and
the /api/schedules bodies. Both now import them from a new serde-only
crate, swarm-controller-api, the way hivectl and hive-c0re share
hive-host-sock. ToSchema sits behind its schema feature, which only
the controller turns on.
The wire format is unchanged: round-trip tests in the new crate pin
each type against the JSON the controller and swarmctl produced, and
the controller's OpenAPI document for these routes is byte-identical.
Files: swarm-controller-api/ is the new crate; swarm-controller and
swarmctl (src, Cargo.toml, Cargo.lock, root Cargo.toml) switch to it;
CLAUDE.md lists the crate and which swarmctl shapes are still local
mirrors; swarmctl/README.md says the forge and schedule bodies come
from the crate, so none of its lines still call them mirrored.
Part of #5472.
The agent read the operator-profiles bucket with a keys() listing, an
ordered consumer whose grant (STREAM.INFO, CONSUMER.CREATE) and flow-control
reply had never run against a permissioned queue. The controller now writes
the whole list as one JSON array under one key, only when it changed, and
the agent reads it with one DIRECT.GET the way agent_inference::read_own
reads its key. The agent grant shrinks to that one subject.
mara on #5170: "dont split caps and perms. its all perms. / dont include
the now empty tool groups / nothing set -> default / also add perms to
agent creation screen".
- hive-sh4re: one `Permission` enum (messaging, meta, inbox, execution,
web_tools, manage_root_agent) replaces `ToolGroup` and `Capability`;
`lifecycle`/`forge` are gone. `Permission::default_for` is the default
for an agent the swarm sets nothing for.
- The record is `{ "permissions": [...] }`. Missing key, unset field or
no successful read yet = default; `[]` = none; a failed read after a
good one keeps the last value.
- hive-agent reads its own key every 10s and builds each turn's --tools,
--allowedTools and MCP config (rewritten before every turn) from it;
the subagent daemon reads it on each start/continue. Agents get a
read-only grant on their own key.
- hive-c0re restarts an agent only when its manage_root_agent changes.
The import now merges meta/capabilities.json and meta/tool-groups.json
into one list per agent and deletes both; the "import pending, don't
read" decision is `ImportOutcome::read_allowed`, table-tested.
- swarm-controller: `GET /api/permissions` (names + default) and an
optional `permissions` on `POST /api/agents`, stored before the job is
queued. swarm-ui's create-agent form gets a permissions field.
- Deleted: HIVE_TOOL_GROUPS and its forward to the subagent daemon,
tool_groups.rs, ruth's tool-group seed, the permissions rebuild job
(PermPayload/WritePermFile/perm_change), the dashboard permissions tab
and its stale-entries panel.
Part of #5170.
An agent's capabilities move from the hive's meta repo
(`meta/capabilities.json`, injected as `HIVE_CAPABILITIES`) into the
`capabilities` field of its key in a new `agent-permissions` KV bucket,
which swarm-controller alone writes.
- swarm-queue-client: `agent_permissions` (bucket, key, `AgentPermissions`,
direct-get read, the import subject and its wire types).
- swarm-controller: creates the bucket at start; `GET|PUT|DELETE
/api/agents/{name}/permissions` (deny_unknown_fields and unknown
capability ⇒ 422, duplicate ⇒ 400, agent must be declared by a hive);
answers each hive's one-shot import, writing a key only where there is
none and only for agents that hive's wanted state declares.
- swarmctl: `agent permissions get|set|clear`.
- swarm-nats-auth: a hive reads every key of the bucket and sends its
import on its own subject; the controller subscribes to the imports and
may answer them (`responses`).
- hive-c0re: reads each of its agents' keys every 30s into
/var/lib/hyperhive/swarm-agent-permissions.json and restarts an agent,
gracefully, when its capabilities change. Unset is the compiled-in
default (ruth: manage_root_agent; everyone else: none). A failed read
keeps the stored value. On first boot it seeds that file from
meta/capabilities.json, sends the grants to the controller, and deletes
the file once the controller answers.
Deleted: the capabilities.json reader/writer, `HIVE_CAPABILITIES` in the
rendered meta flake, ruth's capability seed, the capabilities half of the
permissions rebuild job (`PermPayload::Capabilities`/`Combined`), the
dashboard's capabilities table and `capabilities_changed` event, and the
now-unused `Capability::description`.
Part of #5170.
The classifier read the forge's PR `.diff`, whose context is fixed at 3
lines. A block moved into a glue module lost its enclosing gate (a
`config = lib.mkIf …` 13 to 191 lines up in the misfired moves #5199,
#5200, #5201), so the glue restating that gate read as a new condition.
The controller now builds the diff itself: it lists the PR's changed files,
reads each at the merge base and at the head through the git tree and blob
API with the token it already holds, and diffs them with 200 lines of
context. It sends the forge's `.diff` instead when the PR changes more than
100 files, the forge names no merge base, or the wide diff is over 256 KiB,
and the posted review then says so with the reason.
Fixes#5227
TestNats picked a port by binding 127.0.0.1:0, dropping the listener
and handing the number to nats-server. Until that server bound it, the
port was free for a concurrent test's bind(0) to return again. Both
servers were then started on it (with the same store dir, since that was
keyed by pid and port); the loser exited silently and both tests'
clients reached the winner. term_stream's tests all use the stream
term-main-iris, and one of them creates it with max_message_size 4096,
so a test sharing its server got "stream name already in use with a
different configuration" (10058) from open_or_create's
get-then-create.
The server now binds a port of its choice (-p -1) and announces it in a
ports file, and each server has its own tempdir for the store and that
file, so a test can only reach the server it started.
Fixes#5261
Every run is recorded when it ends: a try-out when its reply settles it,
a requested review once its review is posted or the post fails, and a
request turned away by a full queue once its comment is posted. A
duplicate request that starts nothing is not recorded. The newest 100
are one JSON array under `recent` in a new controller-owned KV bucket,
`review-classifier-runs`, written with compare-and-set as
`schedule-definitions` is (five attempts). A failed write is logged; the
review is already posted by then.
Each recorded run is also one info event, "review classifier run
finished", with the record's fields as tracing fields. The controller
logs natively to the journal, so they reach VictoriaLogs as F_<NAME>.
GET /api/review-classifier/runs returns the list, newest first, gated
by the gateway like the try-out GET. post_classifier_review now returns
the posted review's html_url, which the record keeps as review_url.
Closes#5153, part of #5096.
The rules file is now read with the existing forgejo-api client: the
commit's root tree, then the `.hyperhive` tree, then the
`review-classifier.{yml,json}` blob, base64-decoded. Every request takes
single-segment path parameters, so nothing depends on how a nested path
is escaped, and the controller keeps one HTTP transport to the forge.
The second reqwest client, `Client::with_token` and `raw_file_url` are
gone.
A tree the forge truncated is an error, not a missing file. A 404 on a
tree or blob doesn't come back as a forge 404, so only the repo lookup's
404 reads as "no such repo".
The `is_repo_not_found` doc comment is back on its function.
Part of #5096.
`GET /api/review-classifier/rules?repo=owner/name` reads
`.hyperhive/review-classifier.yml` or `.json` from the repo's default
branch with the controller's forge token, on every request, and answers
the classifications in the try-out POST's shape, plus the file, the
branch and the commit it was read at. The swarm UI's try-out page loads
them into its editor (#5134).
The file is one `classifications` list of the try-out's `Classification`.
A missing file, both files, a parse error, any unknown key, an empty list
or more than ten entries is a problem+json error, never a pass. The
checks the POST makes on its classifications move into one function both
paths call.
The doc names the file and its schema, replacing the placeholders, and
documents the route.
Part of #5096.
POST /api/review-classifier/try-out validates the run (owner/name repo,
a PR number, one to ten classifications with distinct names, thresholds
up to 100), reads the PR's head commit, commits and diff with the
controller's forge token, sends one request to the review classifier on
the queue and answers 202 with an id. GET .../try-out/{id} reports the
run as running, done (rows and overall verdict) or failed (the error).
Results live in memory for an hour after the reply; there is no run
store. POST then GET because a run can outlast the gateway's 60-second
proxy read timeout. Both routes are utoipa-annotated, so they show on
/api/docs/.
swarm-controller now creates `term-main-<agent>` for every live agent, in
the same one-minute pass and with the same config style as
`term-sub-<agent>` (#4897): subjects `$SWARM.term.<agent>` only, max_age
24h, max_bytes 64 MiB, discard Old, max_message_size from the queue's
max_payload. An existing stream is opened as it is. The agent keeps its
plain publish on `$SWARM.term.<agent>` and gets no JetStream subject.
`GET /api/agents/{name}/term/stream` creates an ephemeral push consumer on
that stream starting 100 rows back, so a swarm-ui terminal opens with
recent history and then follows new rows, in order, from one
subscription. Each SSE event carries the row's stream sequence as its id,
and a reconnect's Last-Event-ID resumes after it. Without the stream the
route falls back to the live core subscription it used before.
The stream is `term-main-<agent>`, not `term-<agent>`: an agent may be
named `sub-x`, whose `term-<agent>` would be agent `x`'s subagent stream.
Its one literal subject cannot match `$SWARM.term.<agent>.sub.>`, which
needs more tokens, so the two streams never overlap.
The reader gains `$JS.API.CONSUMER.CREATE.*.*.$SWARM.term.*`, the
extended create form whose last tokens are the consumer's filter. Checked
against nats-server 2.14.4, the trailing `*` also admits a literal `*` or
`>` filter, so a consumer under it reaches any terminal row, main or
subagent; those are rows the reader already subscribes to and reads with
`STREAM.MSG.GET.*`.
Closes#4826
swarm-controller now creates `term-sub-<agent>` for every agent a hive is
declared to run, at start and every minute after, with the config
`swarm_queue_client::subagent_term::open_or_create` spells (subjects
`$SWARM.term.<agent>.sub.>`, max_age 24h). An existing stream is opened as
it is, as the controller does for its other streams and buckets, under the
`$JS.API.STREAM.CREATE.*` grant it already holds.
The agent no longer creates the stream: its token is granted publish on
`$SWARM.term.<agent>.sub.>` and no `$JS.API.STREAM.CREATE|INFO` subject,
and the subagent daemon only publishes. A `CREATE` carries the stream's
config in its payload, which no subject grant narrows, so the agent could
otherwise pick the stream's subjects and limits.
The renewal pass ran the moment swarm-controller started, before its
queue client had connected, so `WantedWriter::view` refused with
"client state Pending" and the pass logged
`agent credential renewal: pass failed; retrying next tick`. That fired
twice in 24h on muede-lpt2, both under a second after start, and would
trip a Grafana rule on that WARN on ordinary restarts.
The first pass now waits until the queue client is connected, polling
`swarm_queue_client::ensure_connected` every 5s the way
`AgentIconReader::create_when_connected` does. The wait is bounded by
one RECONCILE_INTERVAL (5 min): the old code's retry after a false start
also came one interval later, so a queue that never connects gets its
first pass no later than before. Hitting the bound logs one WARN and runs
the pass anyway. Only startup waits; a later disconnect still fails a
pass and logs the WARN.
Refs #4717
A five-minute pass over every agent some hive's wanted state declares as
anything but destroyed queues, per agent:
- `MintAgentIdentity` (the node agent creation uses) when the stored
certificate at swarm/agents/<agent>/bao-mtls is past half its validity,
read from its own notBefore/notAfter: day 45 of the role's 90;
- the new `RenewAgentQueueCredential` node when the queue secret at
swarm/agents/<agent>/queue is 45 days old or has no mint time. The node
re-decides, writes a fresh value with `minted_at`, reads it back, and logs
the agent and the old age.
When both are due the secret node runs after_any the certificate node,
because mint_and_verify compares the queue secret it read with the one it
reads back. A credential that is not stored is never created here.
`queue::AgentCredential` gains an optional `minted_at` (unix seconds);
agent creation now sets it. Stored objects without it decode unchanged and
count as due, so every existing queue secret is re-minted on the first pass.
Both replacements reach the agent at its next start. The old certificate
stays valid until it expires; the old queue secret does not, so a queue
reconnect before that restart is denied.
Adds x509-cert 0.2 (with der_derive and flagset) to read the validity.
docs/swarm/credentials.md: the renewal column splits into automatic re-mint
and automatic re-pull, filled from the code as it stands.
An agent's store identity was signed in swarm-controller's memory by a CA
a controller-host unit generated on disk, and the listener never trusted
that CA. Agent leaves now come from the store itself: a `pki-agents` PKI
mount whose root openbao generates internally, so the agent CA's key
never exists outside the store.
- swarm-bao-agent-pki (new, store host, as the bao granter): enables and
tunes the mount, generates the root once (guarded on an empty issuer
list, no replace branch), upserts the `swarm-agent` role (client
certificates named `hive-agent-*` only, 90 days), caches the CA at
/var/lib/swarm-bao-tls/agent-ca.pem and composes the listener bundle.
- The listener's tls_client_ca_file is a new listener-client-ca.pem
(client-ca.pem, then the agent CA). Host cert-auth roles still pin
client-ca.pem, so an agent leaf satisfies no host role. swarm-bao-certs
composes the same bundle before openbao starts.
- openbao reads tls_client_ca_file only at start, so when the bundle
changed after openbao started, swarm-bao-agent-pki restarts
openbao.service in the container; under `seal = "shamir"` it prints
the step instead. Once swarm-bao-certs has a cached CA, later boots
start openbao with it and do not restart.
- The controller policy gains exactly `update` on
pki-agents/issue/swarm-agent. mint_and_verify now asks that role for
the leaf (the store generates the key), writes the agent's cert-auth
role pinning the issuing CA bao returned, and writes the agent's
policy as render_agent alone: the hive-shared queue credential stanza
is gone.
- deploy.bao.agentPkiRoleName (must start `swarm-`, asserted with the
other pki role names); swarm-controller gets
SWARM_CONTROLLER_AGENT_PKI_MOUNT/_ROLE from the deploy.bao options.
Deleted: swarm-controller-agent-ca and its options (agentCaFile,
agentCaKeyFile), env, LoadCredential entries and assertion;
agent_identity's Authority, rcgen signing and validity window; the
rcgen and time dependencies of swarm-controller (rcgen leaves the
workspace); policy::render_agent_with_queue and its tests. The CN-prefix
assertion policy.rs said was owed is not: agent and host roles pin
different CAs.
Migration is re-creating each agent after deploy; that overwrites the
stale role and policy.
Closes#4756
A `MintAgentMatrixAccount` node creates the agent's account on the swarm's
homeserver with the swarm appservice token, stores its token at
`swarm/agents/<agent>/matrix/main`, and reads it back with whoami before
reporting success. It is a root of agent creation, `after_any` into the
deploy, and a five-minute backfill over every agent with a store identity
queues the same node — the shape of the forge-token mint.
The decision reads the stored token back rather than only checking that one
is stored: the swarm and a hive both pin the device `hyperhive-<agent>`, so
each login replaces the other's token. A failed read plans nothing, so an
outage never rotates every agent's token.
`matrixHomeserverUrl` now defaults to the swarm's `chat.` vhost, since the
mint is what consults it.
Every agent on a hive authenticates to the swarm queue with the same
hive-scoped secret today, so at the auth callout one agent is
indistinguishable from its co-hived neighbours and no subject can be
scoped to one of them.
Mint a secret per agent instead, at swarm level, into
secret/swarm/agents/<agent>/queue -- inside the stanza every agent's ACL
document already grants, so no policy changes and no existing agent's
document is rewritten. It is written by the same node that already mints
the agent's certificate, and read back under the agent's own token
before that node reports success.
The secret is not derived from the agent's mTLS identity: the two
credentials answer different questions and coupling their lifetimes
would mean renewing either implied renewing the other. Nothing here
rotates a queue secret -- a re-run keeps the existing value and only
corrects the principal it names, because this function is re-run
deliberately against agents that are already connected. Revoking one
means deleting the path.
Nothing reads the new credential yet; this is the minting half.
A record written to stdout carries no priority, so journald files the
whole stream at one level and the swarm log store shows `info` whatever
level `tracing` gave it. Under a systemd unit the process's stdout
already *is* the journal, so the fix is to speak the journal protocol
directly and let each record carry its own severity.
New `hive-log` crate holds the one sink chooser, called by `hive-c0re`,
`hive-agent` and `swarm-controller`. It builds the same `EnvFilter`
those binaries always built, then installs exactly one layer — never
both, since a journald layer stacked on the `fmt` layer under a unit
stores every record twice.
The choice is an fstat compare, not a presence test: a child inherits
`$JOURNAL_STREAM` even when its own stdout was redirected elsewhere, so
the variable existing proves nothing. The crate parses `dev:inode` out
of it and compares both numbers against an fstat of stdout, the
descriptor the `fmt` layer writes to by default. No match, unset, or
unparseable takes the `fmt` branch. A journald layer that fails to
construct despite a match falls back to `fmt` and warns through it —
a process must never fail to start because of its logger.
`swarm/agents/<agent>/bao-mtls` did not exist, and neither did any
per-agent identity at the secret store: `policy::agent_object_name`,
`render_agent` and `render_agent_with_queue` had been written and never
called outside their own tests. An agent's only "per-agent" secret today
is read under the HIVE's certificate, through a wide grant on
`swarm/agents/*` — so "per-agent" was presentational.
The swarm now mints the certificate, so no hive ever needs the capability
to mint one. `swarm-controller` is the service that does it: it already
logs in to the store, and its existing grant already covers exactly the
three objects written here (`create/update` on
`secret/data/swarm/agents/*`, `sys/policies/acl/hive-*` and
`auth/cert/certs/hive-*`). No new bao grant, and nothing co-located — a
cert-auth role pins its authority by value, per role, so the controller
issues from its own CA on its own host and pins that CA in the role it
writes. No existing role changes.
The mint node does not report success on a write. After publishing it
connects again, with the leaf it just issued and under the role it just
wrote, and reads the path back — so the policy, the role, the common name
and the leaf are exercised in production on every agent creation. A
certificate this code mints that the role this code writes will not accept
turns the job node red at creation time instead of surfacing later as an
agent container that cannot start.
`TriggerDeploy` gains an `after_any` edge on the mint, not `after_ok`: a
hive cannot pass down a certificate the swarm has not published, but a
host with no authority configured must still create agents exactly as it
does today.
The private key is generated in memory and never written to disk on the
controller — `SecretStore::connect_with_identity` takes the PEM the minter
is already holding, so nothing is written out purely to be logged in with.
Refs #4137
The swarm UI had nowhere to POST an external matrix account to: this daemon
had no matrix-account code at all and no `swarm-secret-client` dependency, so
the last leg of #3726 — a credential reaching an agent — had no entry point.
`PUT /api/hives/{hive}/agents/{agent}/matrix-accounts/{account}` writes the
credential to the store under the agent's own path and publishes a
`CredentialNotice` on that hive's credential subject. All three path names are
load-bearing: agent + account locate the secret, hive routes the notice. The
account is a path segment rather than a body field so that splitting the 1:1
account-to-agent mapping later is a new route, not a changed payload.
Store first, notify second, and the order cannot be swapped: a notice that
overtakes its own write reaches a hive that reads nothing, and the hive
deliberately does not retry. The publish is followed by a flush for the reason
`publish_deploy` flushes — `publish` hands the message to the connection's
write buffer and returns, so the response could otherwise outrun the notice it
reports as sent.
The store client is built per request rather than held in `AppState`, matching
what the hive side does inside `deliver`: a login that expires is not worth
caching for a route this cold.
`swarm_hive` is `declaration_target`'s two name checks, extracted so this
handler makes them identically rather than in a second copy free to drift.
`declaration_target` still tests the writer first, so a deployment with no
queue answers 503 whatever the caller spelled.
## The nix half
#4081 minted the controller's leaf and gave it `baoClientCertFile` /
`baoClientKeyFile`, deliberately stopping there — the leaf is minted whether or
not a controller runs on that host. Nothing consumed those options, so the
identity never reached the process. Measured before writing: `git grep
baoClientCertFile` returned 5 sites and zero consumers, against a control
(`tokenEndpoint`, 4 hits in the same file) proving the search can see
consumption where it exists.
The unit now gets `BAO_ADDR` / `BAO_CLIENT_CERT` / `BAO_CLIENT_KEY` /
`BAO_CACERT` and the matching `LoadCredential` entries, following
`hive-c0re/environment.nix`'s `%d` credential shape.
The gate is `deploy.swarm-controller.baoClientCertFile`, NOT
`deploy.bao.clientCertFile`. The latter is the hive reader's identity and its
policy scopes a hive's own secrets; wiring it here would evaluate, deploy, and
fail only when the daemon tried to write an agent's credential.
Two `module-eval` arms cover exactly that. The presence arm asserts the
`LoadCredential` *source path* (`…:/var/lib/swarm-bao-pki/controller.pem`) and
not just the `%d` name, because a `%d`-only assertion passes while the daemon
holds the wrong policy. The absence arm (`controllerNoStore`) is what makes the
presence arm mean anything.
`RestrictAddressFamilies` already covers the store client; its own comment asks
for the family to be added with the client, and AF_INET/AF_INET6 are present.
Contributes to #3726
A Forgejo webhook has one target_url, so every hive registering the same
swarm-wide hooks is last-writer-wins rather than idempotent. The controller
is the only swarm-wide thing in the deployment, so it becomes the receiver.
It verifies the HMAC and treats the payload as opaque bytes keyed by the hook
kind in the URL path; it deliberately does not parse the payload, because the
hives' existing handlers already decide what a delivery means.
Nothing is registered against the endpoint yet. The replacement path is built
and observable before anything takes the old one away, so the swarm's single
target_url never points at a receiver that forwards nowhere.
Its three error paths returned a bare string with a status code, which forces
a caller to treat the whole body as prose. hive-c0re converted some time ago,
so swarm-controller was the last backend on the old shape -- and it is the one
behind the hive status page's 503, where the body is frequently the entire
diagnosis rather than a summary.
Adds the commitment to docs/conventions.md, since it was implied by the code
in one daemon and written down nowhere: an endpoint of ours answering with a
bare string is a bug to file, not something callers work around.
The test asserts the rendered response -- media type plus an addressable
detail -- rather than the problem_details value, because a handler that built
the value correctly and then returned it as a string would satisfy a test
written against the type alone.
The bucket has two ends in two crates: a hive writes its own key, the
controller reads every key. `swarm-controller` declared the name as a
private const with a doc comment arguing that "reader and writer must
name the same bucket" — an argument the writer, in another crate, could
not obey.
The name is the mild half. Both ends do get-or-create, because either may
come up first on a fresh swarm and neither can assume the other has run.
Two `Config`s that drift means whichever end created the bucket wins and
the other's `get_key_value` succeeds against a bucket it did not ask for:
no error, no log, just a retention policy nobody chose. Sharing the
constructor gives that race one outcome.
Behind a default-off `kv` feature, so the crate's other consumer — the
auth-callout responder, which speaks the connect and nothing else — still
pulls neither `jetstream` nor `kv`. That was the actual reason the
feature was excluded when this crate was extracted; the flag preserves
it. The surface is deliberately narrow: one bucket's name and creation
config, not a general KV facade.
Its only user was queue.rs, which is now swarm-queue-client. An unused
Cargo.toml dependency is not a build error, which is exactly why it
survives: the next reader takes it as still needed and copies it
forward.
A hive publishing its own status needs the same connect the controller
already has - mint an authelia token, present it at CONNECT for the
callout responder, let async-nats re-run the callback per attempt. Only
the use differs: the controller reads, a hive writes.
Copying it would put credential handling in two places, and a
token-refresh fix would then have to be found twice. That is the same
reasoning that already put hive-sock-client in its own crate rather than
in each daemon that speaks to a unix socket.
`from_env` takes a prefix rather than hardcoding SWARM_CONTROLLER_*: the
variables belong to the consuming unit, since a NixOS module sets them
alongside its other options. What is shared is the RULE - all four
together or none at all - not the spelling. The half-set case gains a
test, because it is the case the rule exists for and it previously had
none.
No jetstream/kv feature on the crate: it ends at a connected client, and
what a consumer does with it should be visible in that consumer's own
Cargo.toml.
Behaviour-preserving, and proven that way rather than by inspection: the
full behavioural gate (real nats-server, credential rotation, mutation)
is 20/0 unchanged, and the controller's own tests still pass.
The controller connects to the swarm queue as its own client and serves
what each hive last said about itself at GET /api/hives/status.
THE QUEUE IS THE STORE. A hive publishes into the `hive-status` JetStream
KV bucket (history 1) and the controller reads it per request, keeping no
copy. A cache here would be a second answer to the same question, free to
disagree with the first, and the disagreement surfaces as a hive reading
healthy on a dashboard while the bucket says otherwise. Whichever side
arrives first creates the bucket; both want the same shape.
Rows come from the roster rather than from the bucket, so an empty bucket
renders as a swarm nobody has heard from instead of a healthy one, and
`never_reported` stays distinct from `stale` - went quiet is a fault,
never spoke is usually a deployment that has not happened. Freshness is
derived at read time and never stored as a flag, because a stored
`healthy` boolean goes stale silently the moment nothing arrives, which
is the failure this endpoint is designed against. The timestamp is the
NATS server's, applied when the value landed, so a publisher cannot make
itself look fresher than it is.
Authentication is per connection attempt, not per process. Authelia
issues `client_credentials` tokens that expire in 3599s, and auth happens
at CONNECT, so a long-lived connection is fine but a reconnect an hour
later needs a token minted an hour later. `with_auth_callback` is re-run
by async-nats for each attempt, which handles expiry by construction
rather than by a timer - the alternative fails in the way this subsystem
exists to prevent, with the controller still serving while its data
quietly stops updating.
Three failure shapes are deliberate:
- A half-set environment is fatal; an absent one is not. Silently
behaving like an unconfigured host is how every hive ends up reading
`never_reported` with nothing to point at.
- The endpoint answers 503 rather than an empty list when the store
cannot be read. "I cannot reach the store" and "every hive is silent"
are different answers, and rendering the second turns a local fault
into an apparent swarm-wide outage.
- `retry_on_initial_connect` makes the daemon and the queue bootable in
either order, and the status handler refuses when the client is not
Connected rather than issuing a request into it - a request made in
that window does not fail, it waits, so every poll would hang and
learn nothing. `Pending` is the state a never-connected client is in,
which is why the test is `!= Connected` and not `== Disconnected`.
The rendering rules are a pure function over a map, so the semantics are
tested against a table rather than against a running server. The KV read,
the credential rotation and the 503 paths are covered behaviourally
instead: a real NATS server with a rotating token endpoint, asserting
that the controller recovers only when the credential rotates, and
mutation-tested by holding the credential wrong for the same window.
Fixes hyperhive#3223.
swarm-controller: GET /api/hives (utoipa-annotated same as /health),
serving the swarm's hive directory (name + domain) loaded once at
startup from a new SWARM_CONTROLLER_HIVES env var. The controller's
NixOS module sets it from services.hyperhive.swarm.hives, JSON-encoded
the same way hive-c0re already builds HYPERHIVE_PEERS for its own peer
list (environment.nix) — the full directory here rather than
peers-minus-self, since a swarm-level daemon has no 'self' hive to
exclude. Unset/malformed both fall back to an empty list with a
warning rather than failing startup, so /health stays answerable even
if this one env var is wrong.
swarm-ui: App.tsx's Home route fetches /api/hives and renders it
through the already-merged <Table>/<StatusChip>/<Panel> primitives —
name, domain (linking out to that hive's own gateway-routed
dashboard), and a static "configured" status chip until a real
online/stale/offline rollup exists server-side. Also gave swarm-ui a
base <a> color (theme's --blue) — base.css covers body/typography but
not links, and this is genuinely page-level rather than any one
component's concern.
Verified end to end, not just source-reading: ran the real
swarm-controller binary with SWARM_CONTROLLER_HIVES set, curled
/api/hives + /health over its actual unix socket; separately served
the real swarm-ui dist against a mock /api/hives and screenshotted the
rendered table. Also re-verified the nginx wiring evaluates (same
throwaway nixosSystem eval technique as #3212) — SWARM_CONTROLLER_HIVES
resolves to the expected JSON shape.
cargo test/clippy -p swarm-controller clean (2 tests, including a new
load_hives one covering missing/malformed/valid env var states). npm
run build + typecheck clean.
Rust half mirrors hive-c0re/src/dashboard/mod.rs's utoipa pattern
exactly: an ApiDoc root, #[utoipa::path(...)] on /health (the one
existing route), and a raw JSON route at /api/openapi.json served
via OpenApiRouter::split_for_parts(). Only annotated routes appear
in the spec.
Gateway wiring extends the swarm-UI vhost (the only vhost swarm-
controller is reachable from) with:
- /api/ — proxied to the controller's unix socket untouched (no URI
segment after the socket path), so a route swarm-controller
registers is the path nginx forwards, no prefix-stripping to keep
in sync by hand.
- /api/docs/ (+ the bare /api/docs redirect) — the same
swagger-ui-theme dist the per-hive dashboard already serves at its
own /api/docs/, reused as-is since it's generic.
Both new locations reuse the same auth_request block the vhost's own
'/' already applies, factored into a shared swarmAuthRequest string —
auth_request does not inherit across sibling nginx locations, so
without this the page itself would be gated while its own API and
API docs sat open.
cargo test -p swarm-controller + cargo clippy --all-targets both
clean. Verified the new nginx wiring evaluates correctly with a
throwaway nixosSystem eval (services.hyperhive.swarm.{controller,ui}
enabled): /api/ proxies to the socket, /api/docs redirects, and both
require auth_request the same as the vhost root.
Fixes hyperhive#3212
Per review: daemonBins is the core stack, and it drives the bundle that
services.hyperhive.c0re.package points at -- so listing a swarm-scoped
service there would put it in every hive's closure when one hive in a
swarm runs it. It gets the same per-bin extractor, bound on its own, the
way hivectl already is.
The crate also had no README while every other one does. Both misses are
the same shape: adding a thing without updating what describes the set of
things.
First half of the swarm-controller slice: the crate, its workspace entry
and its daemonBins entry, so the systemd unit that follows has a binary
to point at.
It serves one health endpoint and owns no state. That is the whole
intent -- this makes the unit real (service user, runtime and state
directories, socket, nginx reachability) so the swarm-level surfaces
that follow have somewhere to land. Inventing those surfaces now would
bake in a shape nobody has agreed to.
The socket gets its own runtime directory rather than sharing
hive-c0re's. nginx reaches a unix upstream by having the socket's
directory bind-mounted into the gateway container, so co-locating this
socket with the host admin socket would hand the gateway that socket
too.
