Agents that `send(to: "operator")` were easy to miss — they only
surfaced on the FL0W firehose with no read-state (#1469). Surface them
on the Y3R C4LL ("things waiting on you") tab as a proper inbox.
Backend:
- broker: `unread_for_recipient(recipient, limit)` — unacked messages
for a recipient, newest-first. Mirrors `mark_all_read`'s filter
EXACTLY (`recipient = ?1 AND acked_at IS NULL`, no `delivered_at`
condition) so everything listed is exactly what mark-read clears —
operator rows never get `delivered_at` set (no agent-socket recv).
- dashboard: `GET /api/operator-inbox` → `{ messages: [...] }` (id,
from, body, at, in_reply_to, validated file_refs). Mark-read reuses
the existing `POST /api/agent/operator/mark-all-read` (the route
format-validates the name; "operator" passes; `mark_all_read`
already acks `to="operator"` rows).
Frontend (Y3R C4LL):
- New ◆ 1NB0X ◆ section listing unread messages (sender · time · body,
path-linkified) + a "✓ mark all read" button.
- Cold-loaded on page load + on tab activation; appended live from the
broker `sent` stream (deduped on row id); cleared on mark-all-read.
- Unread count folds into the Y3R C4LL tab pill + the browser-title
`(N)` prefix, so messages are visible from any tab.
Removing the now-redundant FL0W operator-inbox UI is a clean follow-up
(deferred to avoid a flow.js conflict with the in-flight #1473).
Backend (broker + route) is host-side — @damocles to review per plan.
Closes#1469.
C0NT41N3R L04D on the SYST3M tab + GET /api/container-resources.
Backend (hive-c0re/src/container_stats.rs): reads cgroup v2 cpu.stat +
memory.{current,peak,max} for each running agent machine
(machine-h\x2d<name>.scope under machine.slice), read-only/world-
readable so no hive-priv. CPU is a two-sample (~200ms) host-normalised
percentage; one shared sleep covers all agents. Skips agents whose
scope dir is absent (= not running). Network omitted: agents share the
host netns, no per-container counter.
Frontend: a polled C0NT41N3R L04D table on SYST3M (agent / cpu / mem /
peak / limit with meter bars), reusing the ST4TS table style. Polls
/api/container-resources every 5s only while the tab is active.
Backend reviewed-in-principle by damocles (path escaping + cpu delta
math); ping for the on-host sign-off.
Builds the dashboard UI on the /api/stats-hive endpoint: a new ST4TS
tab showing swarm totals (active agents, turns, tokens, labelled est
cost), a busiest-first per-agent table, and a model-mix bar list.
Plain tables/CSS bars — no chart lib in the dashboard bundle; per-agent
trend charts stay on each agent's own /stats page. Fetched on tab
activation + window change (pull-only, no SSE).
Also adds conn.busy_timeout(500ms) in hive_stats read_agent per review:
turn_stats is rollback-journal, so a read landing mid-INSERT would hit
SQLITE_BUSY and silently drop that active agent — wait the write out.
Reminder due-at labels ("in 3m 45s") and schedule next-fire cells
were computed once at render time and never updated. For short-horizon
reminders the stale count was visually misleading.
Both renderers now stamp data-due-at=<unix> on their respective
elements (.reminder-due / .sched-due). A shared 1s setInterval
ticker walks all live elements and rewrites textContent using
fmtDuration / fmtAgo — same zero-re-render pattern as the
existing question TTL chip ticker.
renderMetaInputs snapshots the set of checked data-meta-input values before
calling root.replaceChildren(), then restores them after rebuilding the list.
Without this, a MetaInputsChanged SSE event (e.g. fired when a concurrent
meta-update completes) would silently wipe any checkboxes the operator had
ticked but not yet submitted — forcing them to re-select their inputs.
Approval cards render their age label ("requested N ago") at
render time from a cold /api/state or an approval_added /
approval_resolved SSE event. An approval sitting pending for
an hour would show a stale "0s ago" unless one of those events
fired in the meantime.
Fix: stamp data-requested-at=<unix> on each .approval-ts span.
A 1s setInterval ticker reads all live chips, recomputes the
relative time via fmtAgo, and toggles .stale (amber highlight)
at exactly the 1-hour threshold — no longer dependent on
the next full re-render cycle to apply the amber colour.
Previously only the 'all' chip showed a count (all · N). The operator
had to click each chip to see how many questions were in each category.
Now every chip shows its own count:
all · 5 @operator · 2 @peer · 3 @agentname · 1
This lets the operator see the distribution at a glance and navigate
directly to whichever category has pending items without guessing.
Stamp data-rqe-enqueued / data-rqe-finished / data-rqe-state on queued
and terminal rqe-when spans. A 30s ticker updates them in place so
'queued 2m ago' and 'done 5m ago' labels advance as time passes.
Complement to the keyed rebuild-queue row cache: rows now persist
across snapshots, so without a ticker these static fmtAgo labels
would become arbitrarily stale. The running-entry elapsed ticker
(data-rqe-elapsed, 1s interval) already handled that state;
this fills the gap for queued and terminal states.
Apply the same fingerprint-cache pattern as the container row cache to
the rebuild-queue list. Maintain rebuildQueueRowCache (Map<id, {el,
fingerprint}>) so renderRebuildQueue can reuse <li> nodes whose state
hasn't changed across rebuild_queue_changed snapshots.
The rebuild queue emits a full snapshot on every mutation (a single
rebuild emits queued → running (+ step changes) → done/failed — each
transition is an event). Before this change every event caused a full
replaceChildren() wipe of the list. After this change only the row(s)
whose fingerprint changed get rebuilt; the rest survive intact.
The elapsed-time ticker (data-rqe-elapsed + 1s setInterval) already
updates running-entry timestamps in-place, so ticking elapsed seconds
don't require a re-render and are excluded from the fingerprint.
DOM order is reconciled via insertBefore with no wipe, same as the
container cache.
renderQuestions() was calling root.replaceChildren() on every
question_added / question_resolved SSE event, wiping all <li>
elements including any textarea the operator was typing into.
Add questionRowCache (Map<id, {el, fingerprint}>):
- questionRowFingerprint encodes the static fields that determine
the <li> DOM structure (asker, target, asked_at, deadline_at,
question text, options, multi)
- buildQuestionLi extracts the <li>-building code so it can be
called only when the fingerprint changes
- renderQuestions reuses cached <li> nodes for unchanged questions
and evicts entries for resolved/cancelled questions
Effect: when a new question arrives while the operator is typing a
reply, the existing <li> is reused — the textarea value, radio
selection, and checkbox state are all preserved.
The history <details> open state is also saved before and restored
after the replaceChildren call, so the answered-history panel does
not collapse when a live question event fires.
renderApprovals() called root.replaceChildren() on every
approval_added / approval_resolved SSE event, wiping the spawn
form's name input if the operator had started typing a new agent
name.
Save the current input value before the wipe and restore it into
the freshly-built input element. The form itself is still rebuilt
(no keyed-cache needed here — approval cards have no user inputs),
so all other behaviour is unchanged.
Adds a navigation entry in the per-agent ⋮ overflow menu that opens the
AGENT log tab pre-filtered to that container. The link uses the ?agent= URL
param introduced by the accompanying logs.js change — the operator lands
directly in the journal viewer without having to pick an agent from the
dropdown.
Placed between the rebuild action and the destructive destroy/purge block
so it's reachable but clearly separated from dangerous actions.
On refreshState, the hive-identity title update (fired once when
hive_name/swarm_name are configured) now reads any existing (N) prefix
and preserves it, so the title doesn't briefly drop back to the bare
identity string before refreshTabCounts re-applies the prefix.
When approvals or questions are waiting, document.title is prefixed
with (N) so the operator can see activity in a background browser
tab without switching windows. Clears to the base title when zero.
Implemented in refreshTabCounts (1s tick): strips any existing
prefix before re-applying so the hive-identity title update (once
on state load) composes cleanly.
Stamp data-set-at on .status-age spans so the '(set N ago)' label
stays accurate as time passes. Previously the age was computed once
when the async dashboard-state fetch completed and never updated.
With the keyed container row cache, rows persist much longer between
rebuilds (no more full rebuild on every SSE event), making stale
status-age labels more noticeable. The 30s ticker fixes this without
requiring a full row rebuild or re-fetch.
Maintain a module-level containerRowCache (Map<name, {el, fingerprint}>)
that preserves <li> elements across renderContainers calls. Each row's
fingerprint encodes everything that affects its rendered output:
container running/login/update/reminder state, derived pending/opRunning
labels, tree position (depth, isLast, ancestorIsLast), selection, agent
question counts, and link-base context.
When the fingerprint is unchanged the existing DOM node is reused:
- no replaceChildren wipe for stable rows
- the async dashboard-state fetch (nav strip, ctx badge, status text)
is skipped — previously-fetched data stays in place
- DOM order is reconciled via insertBefore with zero layout work for
in-place nodes
Before this change every SSE event (container_changed, rebuild_queue_
changed, transient_set/cleared, question_added/resolved) caused a full
wipe + rebuild of the entire container list, triggering N concurrent
/api/dashboard-state fetches where N is the number of running agents.
After this change only the rows whose state actually changed are
rebuilt; the rest survive intact across re-renders.
If the operator had an agent:foo filter active and all of foo's questions
were resolved, foo's chip disappears from the filter row on the next
render — but the stored filter value is still agent:foo. The section
then shows "no questions match this filter" with no active chip visible,
leaving the operator confused.
Fix: compute the set of valid filter values (all, operator, peer, plus
one agent:<name> per current participant) before rendering. If the stored
value is not in the set, silently reset it to 'all'. Write directly to
localStorage rather than via setQuestionsFilter() to avoid a re-entrant
renderQuestions() call.
When a question_added or question_resolved SSE event fires, the handler
calls renderQuestions() directly — bypassing the snapshotOpenDetails /
restoreOpenDetails pair that refreshState wraps around it. This caused
the answered-history <details> (data-restore-key="q-history") to
collapse every time a question arrived or was resolved while the
operator had it open.
Fix: call snapshotOpenDetails() at the start of renderQuestions() and
restoreOpenDetails() at the end. The double-restore in the refreshState
path is harmless — re-opening an already-open <details> is idempotent,
and restoreOpenDetails is a no-op when the snapshot set is empty.
Two small fixes in tabs.js:
1. renderApprovalHistory showed 'spawn' for init_config approvals.
The pending-approvals path already handles the three kinds correctly
(apply / init / spawn); history used a two-branch ternary that fell
through to 'spawn' for init_config. Fixed to match the pending path.
2. The 1s interval that ticks rebuild-queue elapsed badges contained a
second loop polling '.build-logs-runtime[data-bl-elapsed]'. No code
in tabs.js ever sets that attribute — the logs page manages its own
elapsed timers inside logs.js. Removed the dead loop.
- Add 'capabilities-section' and 'tool-groups-section' to
MANAGED_SECTION_IDS so operatorIsTyping() covers them too
- applyCapabilitiesChanged and applyToolGroupsChanged skip re-render
when the operator has focus inside the section, preventing the
table from being torn down under an in-progress checkbox edit.
Tab-activation re-fetch is the recovery path for any missed event.
refreshTabCounts() compared entry.state against 'Queued' / 'Running'
(PascalCase) but QueueState serialises as snake_case per
#[serde(rename_all = "snake_case")] — wire values are 'queued' /
'running'. Tab badge was always 0 regardless of rebuild-queue depth.
Add CapabilitiesChanged and ToolGroupsChanged DashboardEvent variants
so the P3RM1SS10NS tab reflects perm changes without the operator
navigating away and back.
Backend:
- DashboardEvent::CapabilitiesChanged { seq, caps, descriptions,
assignments } — same payload shape as GET /api/capabilities
- DashboardEvent::ToolGroupsChanged { seq, groups, descriptions,
assignments } — same payload shape as GET /api/tool-groups
- Coordinator::emit_capabilities_snapshot() and
emit_tool_groups_snapshot() — read from the JSON files and broadcast
- rebuild_queue.rs PermChange worker: emit after each successful
commit_capabilities / commit_tool_groups call
Frontend:
- applyCapabilitiesChanged(ev): calls renderCapabilities(root, ev)
- applyToolGroupsChanged(ev): calls renderToolGroups(root, ev)
- Both registered in MUTATION_HANDLERS
- activateTab comment updated (SSE now covers perm changes)
Docs: dashboard.md and CLAUDE.md updated.
This completes SSE coverage for all dashboard sections: SW4RM,
Y3R C4LL, SYST3M, SCH3DUL3S/reminders, and P3RM1SS10NS all
derive live updates from /dashboard/stream.
- activateTab('schedules') now calls both refreshSchedules() and
refreshReminders() since both sections live on the same tab.
(The previous SYST3M/system target was wrong.)
- Update index.html comment to reflect schedules_changed SSE coverage
- Update index.html reminders comment to mention reminders_changed SSE
- Update tabs.js reminders section comment to reflect SSE coverage
Add RemindersChanged SSE event so the pending-reminders list in the
SYST3M tab updates live without polling.
Backend emission sites (every path that mutates the reminders table):
- agent_server: store_remind (remind MCP call)
- dashboard.rs: post_cancel_reminder, post_retry_reminder
- questions.rs: cancel_loose_end Reminder kind
- reminder_scheduler: after each delivery batch (any_delivered)
Coordinator gets emit_reminders_snapshot() mirroring the existing
emit_schedules_snapshot() pattern: lists PendingReminder rows from the
broker and emits DashboardEvent::RemindersChanged.
Frontend: applyRemindersChanged(ev) calls renderReminders(ev.reminders)
and is registered as reminders_changed in MUTATION_HANDLERS.
Docs: dashboard.md reminders_changed entry; CLAUDE.md file map updated.
Add `SchedulesChanged` to the dashboard event channel so the
operator's schedule list updates in real time without requiring a
tab-activation or form-submit refresh.
Backend:
- `dashboard_events.rs`: new `SchedulesChanged { seq, schedules }`
variant carrying a full `Vec<WireSchedule>` snapshot (same
snapshot-over-diff rationale as `RebuildQueueChanged`).
- `coordinator.rs`: `emit_schedules_snapshot()` helper — queries the
scheduled_prompts list, converts to wire shape, broadcasts the event.
- `dashboard.rs`: call `emit_schedules_snapshot()` at the end of each
operator API handler that mutates a schedule:
`post_schedule_new`, `post_schedule_fire_now`,
`patch_schedule`, `post_schedule_cancel`.
- `scheduled_prompts_worker.rs`: call `emit_schedules_snapshot()`
after each tick that fires schedules, so `last_fired_at_unix`,
`next_fire_at_unix`, and reaped one-shots surface live.
Frontend:
- `tabs.js`: add `applySchedulesChanged(ev)` — replaces
`schedulesState` from the snapshot and calls `renderSchedulesList()`.
Registered in `MUTATION_HANDLERS` as `schedules_changed`.
Tab-activation re-fetch kept as safety net for approval-path
inserts and disconnect windows; comment updated to reflect this.
Docs:
- `docs/web-ui/dashboard.md`: document `schedules_changed` event.
- `CLAUDE.md`: add `SchedulesChanged` to the file-map entry.
The old measurement used tabbar.clientWidth which includes horizontal
padding (~2em / ~30px total), causing an over-allocation of the same
amount. Flex gap between tabs (0.2em) was also not counted in the
accumulated offsetWidth, adding another ~20px of error. Together these
caused the algorithm to leave too many tabs visible, overflowing the
bar and pushing the ⋮ button off the right edge of the screen.
Replace the clientWidth + cumulative-offsetWidth approach with
getBoundingClientRect: the cutoff is the tabbar's actual right edge
minus its right padding, minus a reserve for the overflow wrapper.
Individual tabs are overflowed once their right edge exceeds the
cutoff; subsequent tabs are overflowed unconditionally to keep the
visible set contiguous and left-anchored.
Now that the dashboard fetches agent-owned state directly from
GET /api/dashboard-state (via gateway), hive-c0re no longer needs
to read those fields from disk on the agent's behalf.
Removed from ContainerView:
ctx_tokens, context_window_tokens, rate_limited,
extra_links, status_text, status_set_at
Removed from container_view.rs:
DashboardLink struct, build_nav_links, read_dashboard_links,
read_status, is_rate_limited, read_last_turn, resolve_ctx_window
(and the resolve_ctx_window unit tests)
Removed from dashboard.rs:
GET /api/agent/{name}/links route + get_agent_links handler
dashboard JS (tabs.js):
Merged rate_limited, ctx-window badge, and status-text rendering
into the async dashboard-state fetch block. c0re still provides
needs_login (auth sentinel on host), needs_update, pending_reminders,
running, deployed_sha, parent — all genuinely host-side fields.
hive-ag3nt now exposes a lean DashboardState endpoint that returns the
agent-owned fields the dashboard card needs:
- status_text / status_set_at (from hyperhive-status on disk)
- ctx_tokens / context_window_tokens (from Bus)
- rate_limited (from Bus)
- links (from agent_links — includes screen link for GUI agents,
which c0re's disk-based fallback cannot determine)
The dashboard fetches `${containerBase}/api/dashboard-state` instead of
the previous c0re proxy `/api/agent/{name}/links`. For gateway deployments
this is a same-origin call to the agent via the gateway's unix-socket
upstream; for direct TCP it hits the agent port directly. Both paths fail
gracefully (empty strip) when the agent is starting up.
The main behaviour fix: GUI agents now show the screen link in the dashboard
nav strip. c0re's build_nav_links reads /etc/hyperhive/gui.json from outside
the container (not possible), so it always omitted the screen link.
Add a '❓ N' badge to each container row showing the count of pending
questions where the agent is the asker (awaiting an answer) or the
target (owes a reply). Derived live from questionsState — no backend
field needed.
Details:
- New .badge-loose-ends CSS class (purple, matching Q33R1ES section colour)
- Badge tooltip breaks down the count: 'N asked, N to answer'
- renderContainersFromState() called on QuestionAdded/QuestionResolved
so the badge updates instantly when question state changes
- Existing ⏰ reminders badge kept separate (different signal)
The pending-label derivation had no case for op.kind === 'restart', so
it fell through to the rebuild/rebuild-queued else branch — showing a
misleading 'rebuild pending' badge when the operator issued a restart.
Add explicit 'restarting' / 'restart queued' cases alongside the
existing meta_update and destroy cases.
Also add restart / startup_sweep / perm_change to QUEUE_KIND_GLYPH so
they render with a meaningful glyph (↺ / ⚡ / 🔑) instead of '?' in
the rebuild-queue panel.
Remove the deployed sha plain-text badge from the card head.
Add a forge-linked menu item to the three-dot menu instead:
'deployed:abc123def012 ↗' opens agent-configs/<name>/commit/<sha>
on the hive forge in a new tab.
Only shown when both c.deployed_sha and forgeBase are present.
buildAgentMenu now takes forgeBase as second arg; call site passes
the same forgeBase computed for nav-strip links.
CSS: add text-decoration: none + box-sizing to .agent-menu-item
so <a> link items render identically to the <button> items.
- Wrap table in .schedules-table-wrap (overflow-x: auto) so it
never exceeds the page width on narrow viewports
- Add .schedules-table-next-col (width: 8em) and
.schedules-table-every-col (width: 7em) with white-space: nowrap
to stop those columns from stealing space from the body column
- Align visual style with the perm page tables: unified border on
all cells (was: border-top row separator only), bg-elev thead,
font-size 0.82em (was 0.9em), min-width: 100% on the table itself
Drop the 'h-sock :8421' meta span from the agent card head.
ContainerView.container is now #[serde(skip)] since no frontend
code reads it; the field stays in Rust for internal use.
c.port remains serialized — used for fallback agent UI URLs.
- hive-sh4re: ToolGroup::description() and Capability::description() return
short human-readable strings for each variant
- hive-c0re: ToolGroupsSnapshot and CapabilitiesSnapshot now include a
`descriptions` map (name → description); get_capabilities now iterates
Capability::ALL instead of hardcoding the list
- tabs.js: renderToolGroups + renderCapabilities use descriptions[name] as
the column header title attribute (native browser tooltip on hover)
- rename cap-cap-col → cap-col; add CSS rules for .cap-col and .cap-save-col
- drop zero-width-space replace in capability header cells (nowrap makes it a no-op)
- add Capability::ALL to hive-sh4re; validate incoming cap strings in post_capabilities
Add a new P3RM1SS10NS tab to the dashboard that consolidates all
per-agent permission configuration:
Backend:
- GET /api/capabilities returns { caps: [...], assignments: {...} }
driven by Capability::ALL variants (manage_root_agent,
read_host_journal, query_agent_state)
- POST /api/capabilities/{agent} writes capabilities.json and queues
a rebuild so HIVE_CAPABILITIES takes effect
Frontend:
- New 'permissions' entry in TABS, placed after 'system'
- P3RM1SS10NS tab pane with two sections:
C4P4B1L1T13S — agents × capabilities checkbox matrix (.cap-*)
T00L GR0UPS — agents × tool-groups checkbox matrix (.tg-*) moved
from SYST3M tab
- activateTab('permissions') fetches both tables; neither has an SSE
channel so they re-fetch on each activation to stay fresh
- CSS for .cap-* mirrors the .tg-* layout (scrollable, Catppuccin)
- common.js fetchStateFile: 'HTTP' -> 'http' — last uppercase instance
in the frontend (tabs.js, app.js, logs.js already fixed in prior PRs)
- tabs.js: two redundant arrow wrappers in setTimeout dropped —
setTimeout(() => f(), N) -> setTimeout(f, N) where f takes no args
- Replace innerHTML = '' with replaceChildren() throughout tabs.js and
app.js (12 + 7 sites). paintAtomic already used replaceChildren; now
the direct-clear sites are consistent with it.
- Add missing .rqe-source-startup_sweep CSS rule (startup_sweep is a
valid QueueSource variant but had no badge style, falling through to
the base muted appearance with no explicit intent).
- Lowercase the one uppercase 'HTTP ' in the fetchAndRenderToolGroups
error path to match every other fetch error in the file.
overflowBtn/overflowDrop/overflowWrap were declared after syncTabFromHash()
was invoked. activateTab() calls updateTabbarOverflow() which closes over
these consts — hitting them in the TDZ threw ReferenceError on every page
load, also preventing fetchAndRenderToolGroups() from running (tool-groups
section stuck at loading).
Selecting any option in the M0V3 dropdown now fires confirm+POST
immediately; no separate button needed. On cancel or after the
request completes, the select resets to the placeholder. Removes
the now-redundant btn-move button and its CSS rule.
Remove the separate '⇡ M0V3 → ROOT' button from the selection bar.
Add '(no parent)' as the first real option in the existing M0V3
dropdown — selecting it submits an empty new_parent, which the backend
already treats as 'promote to root'.
The select placeholder label changes to '⇢ M0V3 →' so the combined
control reads naturally without the old standalone button. The submit
button enables as soon as any option past the placeholder is chosen
(selectedIndex > 0), which correctly covers both '(no parent)' and
named-parent selections.
Section heading, element id, CSS classes, and JS functions all renamed
from 'capabilities'/'cap-*' to 'tool-groups'/'tg-*' to accurately
describe what the UI manages (tool-group permissions, not a capabilities
system).
Backend (hive-c0re/src/dashboard.rs):
GET /api/tool-groups — returns { groups: [...], assignments: {...} };
groups list comes from ToolGroup::ALL so the UI needs no change when
a new group is added (satisfies the 'no extend ui' requirement)
POST /api/tool-groups/{agent} — accepts { groups: [...] }, calls
set_groups() then enqueues a rebuild so the new HIVE_TOOL_GROUPS
env var takes effect immediately
hive-sh4re/src/lib.rs:
Added ToolGroup::ALL const (ordered slice of every group)
Added ToolGroup::as_str() — snake_case wire name, matches serde
Frontend:
SYST3M tab: new C4P4B1L1T13S section above K3PT ST4T3 with
#capabilities-section placeholder
tabs.js: fetchAndRenderCapabilities() + renderCapabilities() —
columns are built from the groups array returned by the API;
each row has one checkbox per group and a save button that POSTs
and re-fetches after 800ms; agents without explicit assignments
show a (default) label; triggered on each SYST3M tab activation
dashboard.css: .cap-table-wrap/.cap-table/.cap-row/.cap-agent-*
styles for the scrollable matrix table
