title bar grows a '↑ DASHB04RD' link next to the rebuild button —
opens the host dashboard in a new tab so the operator can pivot
between agents without losing the live tail. uses the dashboardPort
already plumbed via /api/state.
state row picks up a 'last turn 12.3s' chip that fills in when
state transitions away from thinking. format: ms / s.s / m s.
hidden until the first turn completes.
new POST /cancel-question/{id} resolves a pending operator question
with the sentinel answer '[cancelled]' and fires the usual
HelperEvent::OperatorAnswered so the manager sees a terminal state
and can fall back. uses the same OperatorQuestions::answer path —
no special handling, the manager already has to deal with arbitrary
answer strings.
dashboard renders the cancel as a separate <form> below the main
qform so the answer-merge submit handler on the main form doesn't
inadvertently fire when the operator clicks cancel. confirm dialog
spells out what the manager will see.
ttl-based auto-cancel is still on the todo (would spawn a tokio task
per submitted question).
Write and Edit tool_use rows used to render as the bare file path. now
they're collapsed <details> blocks with the actual change inside —
Write shows every content line prefixed '+', Edit shows old_string as
'-' lines then new_string as '+' lines. summary carries the file path
+ counts ('→ Edit /foo · -3 +5'). lines colored via diff-add /
diff-del / diff-ctx; click to expand the full body.
renderFileWriteEdit returns null for any other tool so the existing
flat-row path (fmtToolUse) is untouched.
retention is a host concern — agents have no business doing their
own cleanup, and a misbehaving harness could skip it. drop
spawn_events_vacuum from both hive-ag3nt and hive-m1nd, drop the
matching Bus::vacuum + EventStore::vacuum methods. new
hive_c0re::events_vacuum module sweeps every existing
agents/<name>/state/hyperhive-events.sqlite on the same hourly
cadence as the broker vacuum. same two-stage delete (older than 7
days, trim to 2000 newest). called from main alongside broker
vacuum.
also: server-side state badge entered into todo.md (today's badge
is derived client-side from sse, fine for idle/thinking but a
state machine that grows compacting/napping wants authoritative
status from the harness).
submitting R3QU3ST SP4WN immediately queues an approval that lands
in the very next list. the form belonged with that list, not at the
top of containers — the agent doesn't exist yet at form time anyway.
docs: claude.md grows operator_questions.rs / events.rs sqlite /
broker vacuum to the file map; web-ui shape lists the actual current
endpoint set (per-agent cancel/compact/history, dashboard tombstone
purge/answer/spawn); live-view section now describes the state
badge, sticky-bottom scroll, history backfill, and the terminal-
embedded prompt with its slash commands; dashboard-action-surface
rewritten around the new six-section page (containers / kept-state /
questions / inbox / approvals / message-flow) and the two-line
container row. new 'persistence + retention' section documenting both
sqlite databases and their vacuum cadences. readme picks up the new
mgr mcp surface (start/restart/ask_operator) + operator-side
features list + ask_operator answer flow.
todo trimmed of shipped items (bigger terminal / sticky scroll /
cancel button / /compact trigger / /cancel command). new entry for
the two-step spawn-with-preconfig flow.
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.
undelivered rows are always kept regardless of age (still in flight).
sweep runs immediately on serve start then every hour. logs row count
when non-zero. keep_secs is hard-coded for now (30 days); can be
config-driven later if a host wants to retain more / less for audit.
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 --purge flag on the destroy verb (cli + admin socket + dashboard).
default destroy still keeps /var/lib/hyperhive/{agents,applied}/<name>/
so recreating with the same name reuses prior config + creds.
with --purge, both dirs go too (config history, claude creds, /state/
notes). no undo. dashboard adds a separate PURG3 button with an
explicit confirmation copy; the existing DESTR0Y button keeps the
soft semantics.
claude.md dashboard-action-surface section updated; todo entry
dropped.
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).
