forge-token.nix fetches swarm/agents/<agent>/forge-token under the
agent's own store identity into /run/hive-agent-forge-token/token, and
re-fetches on a timer so a rotation lands. hive-forge, the git
credential helper, hive-forge-notify, forge-avatar-sync and the web UI
read that file first and fall back to <state>/forge-token.
tea-login is deleted: it copied the token into ~/.config/tea, which
docs/swarm/credentials.md forbids for a store secret. hive-forge covers
the same verbs. swarmctl gains agent mint-forge-token.

Agent creation at swarm level is event-driven and nothing sweeps for
agents missing a credential, so an agent created before a credential
joined the mint never receives one -- nothing comes back around to it.
Without a way to re-run the mint by hand, the only route to giving an
existing agent its queue credential would be to delete and recreate the
agent.
POST /api/agents/{name}/identity enqueues the same MintAgentIdentity
node POST /api/agents declares, rather than writing inline: a second
code path that mints an identity is a second place for the four strings
that have to agree to disagree. swarmctl agent mint-identity is the
operator end, the same POST-and-print-the-node-id shape agent create
already has.
--hive is required on both ends. Neither the CLI nor the controller
keeps a roster of which agent runs where, and the credentials this mints
name a hive, so a default would be a guess that hands an agent subjects
on a hive it does not run on.
Documents the backfill as a runbook step, and fills in the renewal cell
the credential matrix requires for the new row.
`swarmctl agent create <name> --hive <hive>` POSTs `/api/agents` to
swarm-controller over the daemon's unix socket and prints the queued
job's node id.
It deliberately does not wait. The endpoint queues a DAG whose last node
*publishes* a deploy message; the hive's `hive-c0re` then converges on
its own clock, out of the controller's sight. So even a fully settled
graph would not mean the agent is up, and there is nothing this CLI
could wait for that would let it claim otherwise. Printing the id is
exactly what the response says and all of what it says.
Transport is a bare hyper HTTP/1.1 client handshaked onto a tokio
`UnixStream` via `hyper_util::rt::TokioIo` — the same crate family
`hivectl/src/watch.rs` and `hive-agent/src/web_ui/proxy.rs` already use,
all of it already workspace-pinned. The request/response shapes are a
local mirror rather than a shared crate: the controller's own types are
private to its binary and this crate does not link it, the same
separation `hivectl` keeps from `hive-c0re`.
Errors are reduced to one actionable line — the controller answers
RFC 9457 problem+json, so an unknown `--hive` reaches the operator as
the roster of hives that would have worked rather than a body dump.
Response `warnings` are printed when non-empty.
The nix module wraps the binary with `SWARM_CONTROLLER_SOCKET`, read
from the same `socketPath` the daemon binds.
