Not every swarm's operator is she/her. The prompt now names no pronouns
and tells agents to say "the operator"; pronouns will come from a
per-operator profile setting. The operatorPronouns removal warning and
claude-invocation.md say the same.
Nothing sets the variable once otel.metricIntervalMs is gone, so the
turn-metrics, jobq-metrics and vcs-metrics exporters export at a fixed
60s, as hive-c0re's container-resource exporter already does. The
observability doc and the removal warning now say so.
Both options are now ignored with a warning (the swarm-peers-removed.nix
shape), so a host that still sets one keeps evaluating.
- operatorPronouns: the agents' system prompt names the pronouns as
she/her, the value the harness fell back to and the option's default.
The --operator-pronouns flag, HiveEnv field, meta-flake let binding
and HIVE_OPERATOR_PRONOUNS env var are gone.
- contextWindowTokens: the per-family defaults (haiku 200000, sonnet
1000000, opus 1000000) move into hive-agent's harness_state as a
table; the window the API reports after a turn still wins. The
--context-window-tokens flag, HiveEnv field and the rendered
HIVE_CONTEXT_WINDOW_TOKENS_<KEY> env vars are gone.
the manager socket no longer exists; ruth's socket is the per-agent one. Fixes the wire-type crate docs, hive-sh4re manager.rs header and README, and two other mentions.
The calls run serially before the web UI is served, so a per-call deadline
alone left N x 2 min of boot delay (8 min with the default two
marketplaces and two plugins, 10 with auto-update) when the fetch path is
blackholed. One shared 4 minute budget now bounds the sequence: each call
gets min(2 min, what is left), and calls after the budget is spent fail at
once with the same warning.
Chosen over spawning the install: boot keeps installing plugins before the
first turn, as today, and the diff is one Instant threaded through the three
call sites. docs/turn-loop/config.md states the 2 minute and 4 minute bounds.
The claude plugin marketplace add/update and install calls fetch over
the network and are awaited before the web UI is spawned. One hung
fetch stopped the agent from booting at all, against the module's own
promise that plugin failures never block boot.
Each call now runs under a 2 minute deadline; on expiry the child is
killed, a warning is logged and boot continues, as for any other
plugin failure.
The system prompt now names the work dir for worktrees, clones and build
trees, and keeps state/ for notes. A subagent started without a dir runs
in the agent's work dir instead of the daemon's own cwd.
Until its first successful read of its key, the harness read its
permissions as the default set, `execution` included. So did the
subagent daemon. An agent the operator had narrowed ran wider than
granted after every restart while the queue was unreachable, and in the
gap before the first 10 s poll. During the meta-repo import, every
non-ruth key is still unset, and the agent read that as the default too,
for as long as the import stayed pending.
mara picked option (a) on #5293: "a, removal of the old path as a follow
up in 1w".
hive-c0re now writes each agent's entry from
swarm-agent-permissions.json into the agent's runtime dir as
swarm-permissions.json (/run/hive in the container), together with
whether the import is still pending. It writes the file at every start
(write_dropins) and after every 30 s pass of the permissions worker. The
harness and the subagent daemon hold that stored list until their own
first read succeeds. While the import is pending, an unset key keeps
the stored list rather than reverting it to the default. A queue that
is down never blocks a start: the agent runs on the stored grant.
The decision lives in swarm_queue_client::agent_permissions::HiveCopy,
shared by both readers.
Part of #5170.
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.
A new swarm service, `swarm-claude-login`, in its own container on the host
that sets `deploy.claude-login.enable` (defaulted on by `allSwarmServices`
where the host has the minter's store leaf, like the review classifier).
- swarm-ui: an agent card showing "login needed" gets a "log in" button.
Its dialog starts the login, shows the URL claude printed, and takes the
pasted code.
- swarm-controller: `POST/DELETE /api/agents/{name}/claude-login` and
`POST /api/agents/{name}/claude-login/code`, behind the swarm UI's
authelia-gated `/api/`, relay the steps to the minter as requests on
`$SWARM.claude-login.request`.
- swarm-claude-login: runs `claude auth login` over piped stdio with HOME
and CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR in a per-login scratch dir, scrapes the first
https URL, writes the code to stdin, and stores the `.credentials.json`
at `swarm/agents/<agent>/claude-credentials` with a KV v2 write, a new
version over any earlier one. The scratch dir goes on every exit path; a
login waits 15 minutes for its code.
- hive-agent: while parked in `wait_for_login`, reads that leaf every 30 s
under the agent's own cert and installs it only when its KV version is
newer than the one recorded in `<harness>/claude-credentials-version`.
An equal or older version is never put back, because claude rotates the
refresh token and the stored copy is stale after the first refresh.
- swarm-secret-client: `claude_login` paths and `SecretStore::read_versioned`.
- Credentials: a `claude-login` store leaf minted by glue-bao-tls, a
`swarm-claude-login` policy (create/update on
`swarm/agents/+/claude-credentials`, read on its own queue client
secret), an authelia machine client, and a `--claude-login-client`
grant in the queue's auth-callout responder. The unit runs as a static
system user.
The hive's own web-UI login is unchanged.
Refs #5268
The swarm lives in the swarm UI; this tab lists the hive's agents. The tab
is 4G3NTS at #agents, its pane and count pill follow, and the module that
renders the containers is agents.js. Comments and docs that named SW4RM or
swarm.js follow.
A separate $SWARM.control.<agent> subject carries commands, apart from
the text subject. swarm-controller exposes POST /api/agents/{name}/cancel
as a NATS request; the harness answers whether a turn was actually
stopped, through the same cancel path as the dashboard button. The agent
credential gets subscribe on its control subject and allow_responses to
answer; only the controller may publish there.
Refs #3803
Adds a build & check section, maps every workspace member, links
gotchas.md, and trims entries down to purpose + warnings (the rest lives
in each crate's //! doc). Also drops the comment in turn.rs that repeated
the module doc.
The agent's turn-state header ($SWARM.agent-state.<agent>) gains
`needs_login`, set by hive-agent from its own LoginState, so the flag
reaches the swarm without hive-c0re (mara on #5268: "id prefer the agent
container sending the info it needs login without hive").
- swarm-queue-client: `agent_login::Login`, the shared wire type, beside
`agent_inference::Effective`. `needs_login: Option<bool>` with
`#[serde(default)]`: a header from an older agent decodes as `None`
(unknown), never as "needs login" or "logged in".
- hive-agent: the header publisher reads the shared LoginState cell.
Every writer of that cell emits a status on the bus afterwards, so a
login change goes out on the next rebuild, not the 60 s refresh.
- swarm-controller: `agent_login::Reported` follows every agent's header
and keeps the latest flag; `GET /api/agents/status` merges it into each
row as `needs_login` (null when unknown).
- swarm-ui: AgentCard shows a warning-tone "login needed" badge when the
row's `needs_login` is true.
Refs #5268
A role file is read into every subagent dispatch that names it, and
nothing measured its size. A new watch on the same 15-minute tick as
claude_md_watch records `hyperhive.agent.subagent_role.lines`, one
series per `<role>.md` under the state dir's `subagent_roles/`,
labelled `role` with the file stem. Metric only: no todo, no threshold.
Fixes#4558
swarm-controller README, the swarmctl inference doc comment (and the
regenerated swarmctl-cli.md) and the hive-agent swarm_inference module doc
still listed only model, effort and subagent models.
Nothing capped how many subagents an agent runs at once; the operator
wants to set that per agent from swarm-ui (#5234, shape (b)).
AgentInference gains `max_subagents: Option<u32>`. An absent field
decodes as None, so every stored value still parses and means "no cap",
which is today's behaviour.
swarm-controller accepts 1..=32 on PUT. 0 would refuse every start; 32
is far more concurrent claude sessions than one agent container has
memory for, so anything above it is a typo, not a cap.
The subagent daemon already read the agent's agent-inference key for
subagent_models; it now reads it on every start and continue (not only
those naming a model) and refuses a new run once the cap's worth of
names is tracked, counted under the same lock as the name reservation.
Every tracked slot counts: running, starting, a goal run between turns,
and an interrupted one still exiting. A goal re-prompt never goes
through the reservation, so it is never refused. A failed read applies
no cap, as it falls back for models.
swarmctl's `inference set` does GET, merge, PUT; its mirror type now
carries the field so a set from the CLI keeps a cap set in swarm-ui
instead of dropping it, and `get` prints it.
Part of #5081. Follow-up to the review of #5131.
- Before this PR, claude read CLAUDE_REMOTE_CONTROL_SESSION_NAME_PREFIX
from managed-settings.json in every context. The environment generator
reaches every unit of the container's manager, including `machinectl
shell` (hivectl choom): machined starts it as a transient
container-shell@ unit (systemd 260.5 src/machine/machine.c:980-1004),
and every unit's exec environment starts from the manager environment
the generators fill (src/core/unit.c:5557, src/core/manager.c:3990-4001).
Shells no unit starts do not get it: `nixos-container root-login` / `run`
enter with nsenter + `su -l`, and getty logins go through login(1). So
hive-facts.nix now also exports the generator's output from
/etc/set-environment (environment.extraInit).
- The generator's read loop kept a last line only when it ended in a
newline; it now keeps one without.
- checks.script-test-agent-hive-facts runs the rendered generator and the
shell snippet (under dash and bash's sh) against sample files: both
facts, a planted LD_PRELOAD/PATH line, a last line without a newline,
an empty file and no file.
- identity.rs: hive_name()'s doc names the facts file as the source.
An agent with no matrix account has no `mcp__matrix__*` tools, so a
refusal that only says "use the matrix MCP tools" points it at something
it cannot call. `OPERATOR_SEND_REFUSAL` now names matrix for an agent
that has it, and tells one without it that there is no direct channel:
the operator reads its `set_status` line, its turn output on the
dashboard, and its logs. The allow-list refusal, the `send` tool
description, the MCP server instructions and the system prompt say
"over matrix if you have it" to match, and the helper-event bullets go
back to "ask the operator" without naming a channel.
Agents reach the operator over matrix now (#5115). A `send` to
`operator` is refused, by the broker and by the MCP allow-list check,
with an error that names the matrix MCP tools. The dashboard's Y3R C4LL
tab goes with it: the operator inbox, `GET /api/operator-inbox`,
`Broker::unread_for_recipient`, and the browser notifications that only
ever fired on operator-bound messages.
The harness no longer posts turn failures and plugin-install failures
to the operator inbox. Both are already logged at warn; a new Grafana
rule, `hh-agent-turn-failed`, fires per agent on the harness's
`turn failed` line.
Dashboard-to-agent messaging (op-send, the agent web UI's message box,
mark-all-read for agent inboxes) is unchanged.
Decisions per mara on #5115: q1 a, q2 a plus a grafana alert, q3 keep
dashboard-to-agent messaging and leave swarm-level code alone.
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
The two report_compact tests build a Bus, which resolves the events db under
HYPERHIVE_HARNESS_DIR and panics when it is unset, as in the nix test
sandbox. Add a test-only paths::with_harness_dir that points the variable at
a temp dir under a lock, and use it in both the new tests and the existing
swarm_inference Bus test, which set the variable unguarded.
The turn-end path returned the /compact's success as the turn's outcome, so a
turn that had already compacted (reactively or per policy) was recorded as not
compacted when its queued /compact then failed. The outcome now folds the two
with `||`, via `with_turn_end_compact`, which the tests pin.
The turn-end /compact (operator button or the agent's `compact` tool) dropped
the compaction error with `let _ =`, emitted no note, and returned
`Ok(true)`, so the turn was recorded `result_kind = "compacted"` although
nothing compacted. The idle path already printed `/compact failed: …`.
Both paths now go through one `report_compact` helper that emits the done /
failed note; the turn-end path returns whether the compact succeeded.
Both proxy paths copied upstream response headers with HeaderMap::insert,
which replaces earlier values of the same name, so an upstream sending two
Set-Cookie (or Link, Vary, ...) headers reached the browser with only the
last one. Use append in both loops. Tests cover the http and unix: paths.
hive-claude 0.1.4 (hive-claude #28) sends the idle watchdog's signal as
SIGINT to claude's process group instead of SIGKILL. It then waits for
claude to exit, with no SIGKILL fallback. claude stops the commands its
Bash tool started when it shuts down on SIGINT, and a SIGKILL left them
running. This is the last SIGKILL of a claude process from #4999.
hive-agent's `idle_timeout` -> `Error::IdleTimeout` -> `TurnError::ApiStall`
path is unchanged. The difference is that the error now arrives only
once claude has exited. A claude that ignores the SIGINT keeps the turn
open until it is killed by hand or the unit stops.
The Cargo.lock change is only hive-claude's version and checksum. A plain
`cargo update -p hive-claude --precise 0.1.4` also moved seven crates'
Windows-only `windows-sys` edges from 0.61.2 to 0.52.0, unrelated to this
bump. The minimal lock passes `--locked`.
The turn-loop and web-UI docs, and hive-agent's watchdog docs and stall
note, now say SIGINT instead of "killed". That includes the ACP spots
that the previous commit's `Drop` change made stale.
hive-claude 0.1.3 spawns claude as the leader of its own process group,
and its `Cancel::cancel` and idle watchdog signal that group instead of
claude's pid alone. Commands claude started (a `nix build`, a test run)
used to survive a subagent `interrupt` and keep running.
Bump hive-claude to 0.1.3. The subagent `interrupt` call site needs no
code change: `Cancel::cancel(force)` kept its signature.
The harness's `/cancel` and `/logout` did not go through hive-claude:
they ran `kill -INT <pid>` on the claude child they found in /proc. They
now SIGINT the group that child leads, through `libc::kill`. A `claude`
child that leads no group (the `claude plugin` calls) shares the
harness's group and is still signalled alone.
Tests: an interrupted subagent's grandchild dies, for both SIGINT and
`force`, and fails on hive-claude 0.1.2; a harness cancel stops a
turn's grandchild, and fails when only the pid is signalled.
mara on #5034: "effort shares /models fate". The per-agent web UI no
longer sets effort: the `/effort` slash command, the effort picker,
`POST /api/effort`, `Bus::set_effort`, the `hyperhive-effort` writer,
`EFFORT_LEVELS`/`is_valid_effort` and the ACP effort-list payload are
gone, and `lib/modelEffort.ts` with them. The effort chip is
display-only and shows its source (`effort_source` in `/api/state`);
on ACP it stays hidden while the session offers no effort level.
The read side is unchanged: with no swarm value an agent runs an
existing `hyperhive-effort` file, else its agent.nix effort, else
medium. Existing files are not touched.
Refs #5034
The per-agent web UI no longer sets the model: the `/model` slash
command, the model picker, `POST /api/model`, `Bus::set_model` and the
`hyperhive-model` writer are gone. The model chip is display-only and
shows where the model comes from (`model_source` in `/api/state`). The
model is set on the swarm (swarm UI agents page, `swarmctl agent
inference set`).
The read side is unchanged: with no swarm value an agent runs its
agent.nix model, else an existing `hyperhive-model` file, else haiku.
Existing files are not touched.
With the picker gone, its model list goes too: `available_models` in
`/api/state`, the ACP model-list filter, and the harness's global
`HIVE_AVAILABLE_MODELS`. The subagent daemon keeps its own
`HIVE_AVAILABLE_MODELS` from mcp.nix, and the `availableModels`
assertion stays.
`/effort` (command, picker, route, file) is unchanged.
Refs #5034
post_mark_todos_done's body moves into mark_ids_done, which takes the
per-id dial as a closure, so tests cover the 500 and 200 responses without
reaching the live in-agent socket.
post_mark_todos_done dropped every dial failure and Response::Err and
answered 200 {"acked":0}, so the todos panel showed "marked done" and
cleared its checkboxes while the todos stayed. Any failing id now fails
the request with a 500 naming how many ids failed; the panel already
shows non-OK bodies as "failed: ...".
Whether a header goes out was split between `run()` (clear `last` on a
refresh) and `publish()` (skip a payload equal to `last`), and only the
refresh cadence was tested: deleting the clear kept every test green.
The decision is now the pure `due(trigger, last, payload)`, which
`publish()` calls, with tests that an unchanged payload is not sent on
an event, is sent on a refresh, a changed one is sent on either, and a
refresh that then fails to send is re-sent by the next event.
Behaviour is unchanged.
Refs #5034
The header on `$SWARM.agent-state.<agent>` went out only when a bus event
changed it, and the core subject keeps nothing for a late subscriber. An
idle agent therefore said nothing to a reader that attached after its
last change: swarm-controller after a restart showed `effective: null`
for that agent until its next turn, which can be hours.
The publish loop now also wakes every 60 s and re-sends the current
header through the same `publish` path (clearing the dedup state first).
Transitions still go out as they happen. Same subject, same grant.
An agent whose queue connection is down now logs `swarm agent state:
publish skipped` once a minute even while idle, so the
`hh-swarm-agent-state-publish-skipped` alert also fires for idle
disconnected agents, not only busy ones.
Refs #5034
Each agent now reports the model and effort it runs on, and where each
comes from (`swarm`, `agent_nix`, `local_file` or `default`), in its
turn-state header on `$SWARM.agent-state.<agent>`: `effort`,
`model_source` and `effort_source` join `model`. The shared
`swarm_queue_client::agent_inference::{Effective, Source}` types spell
those fields for both ends.
The Bus keeps a source next to the model and effort. `Bus::new` takes it
from the local fallback chain (`harness_state::local_model` /
`local_effort`, which now return the source with the value), a `/model`
or `/effort` pick sets `local_file`, and the swarm poller sets `swarm`
or, on a clear, the local chain's source. A swarm value equal to the one
the agent already runs is now applied once, so the source moves to
`swarm` and the header is republished; before, `next()` skipped it as
unchanged.
swarm-controller subscribes to every agent's header with the reader
grant it already holds for the state relay, and keeps the latest
inference fields per agent in memory (`inference::Reported`).
`GET /api/agents/{name}/inference` now answers
`{configured, effective}`, `effective` being `null` until the agent's
first header with these fields since the controller started.
`swarmctl agent inference get` prints both; `set` reads `configured`.
Refs #5034
swarm-controller keeps each agent's inference settings in a new
`agent-inference` KV bucket, one key per agent, and is its only writer
(`GET`/`PUT`/`DELETE /api/agents/{name}/inference`; `swarmctl agent
inference get|set|clear`). Every field is optional. Each agent reads its
own key every 10 s through a direct-get grant on that key alone, and a
set `model` or `effort` replaces the Bus value, so the next turn runs on
it and the badge follows.
The swarm value is applied without persisting it: `Bus::set_model` and
`set_effort` are split into a persisting setter and a non-persisting
`apply_*`, and the poller uses the latter. Otherwise the swarm value
would overwrite `hyperhive-model`/`hyperhive-effort`, and clearing it, or
a restart, would no longer find the agent's own value. An unset field
changes nothing; a field cleared after being applied goes back to the
local value (`harness_state::local_model`/`local_effort`, the same
resolution `Bus::new` uses), read again at the clear.
`subagent_models` is validated, stored and shown by `get`; no agent
applies it yet.
Refs #5034
The reader's subscribe allow-list spelled `$SWARM.term.*`,
`$SWARM.term.*.sub.*` and `$SWARM.agent-state.*` as literals, copies of
private prefixes in hive-agent and swarm-controller. A rename on either side
left the policy behind and the stream stopped with only a connection-level
server error.
swarm-queue-client now owns `term_subject`, `agent_state_subject` and their
`*_wildcard` forms, and `subagent_term::subject_wildcard`; hive-agent's
publishers, swarm-controller's relays and the policy all build from them.
Subjects are byte-identical.
The docs, option descriptions and comments that named the swarm root, the
swarm CA or the hive CA as an existing trust anchor now name the secret
store's pki root or the trust bundle that holds it:
- docs/swarm/README.md, secrets.md, bao.md
- deploy.bao.clientCaFile's and gateway.verifiedProxyTo's descriptions
- comments in hive-c0re/src/meta.rs, hive-agent/src/swarm_queue.rs,
swarm-logs/src/auth.rs, swarm-controller/src/vcs_metrics.rs,
hive-forge, swarm-authelia, swarm-ci-runner, glue-bao-tls, swarm-bao,
swarm-grafana, swarm-otel, otel, hive-c0re, lib/hive-ca-trust.nix,
hive-forge/Cargo.toml and the flake-update workflow
Nothing behaves differently: every edit is a nix, Rust or TOML comment, an
option description, or a test assertion message. The Rust edits change the
workspace source, which this PR already rebuilds for hivectl.
Refs #4588
Nothing submits an approval since scheduled prompts left hive-c0re, so the
queue only acted on rows written before that.
- hive-c0re: the approvals store and its migrations, approve/deny/
resolve actions, the ResolveApproval tail node (and meta_update's
approval_id), POST /api/approve and /api/deny, the approval views on
/api/state, the approval_resolved dashboard event, the orphan GC,
destroy/purge failing pending rows, and the approval rows in
get_loose_ends. DestroyBookkeeping loses the purge flag, which only
worded the approval-failure note.
- The CancelLooseEnd request goes: its only hive-c0re arm was the
approval one. cancel_loose_end handles reminder and todo in the harness.
- Wire types: hive_sh4re::approvals (ReminderStats moves to inbox),
LooseEnd::Approval, CancelLooseEndKind, HelperEvent::ApprovalResolved,
ToolGroup::Approvals, HostRequest::{Pending,Approve,Deny} and
HostResponse.approvals. HOST_SOCK_VERSION goes to 2 for the removed
field.
- hivectl loses the approvals verbs; docs/tools/hivectl-cli.md is
regenerated.
- The system prompt drops approval_resolved.
- The approvals table stays in broker.sqlite, unread, the same way the
operator_questions table was left when its store was removed.
- An `approvals` entry still in tool-groups.json is skipped with a warning
by ToolGroup::parse_list, like any unknown group.
- docs/agent-lifecycle/approvals.md is renamed to config-changes.md so the
code's doc pointers resolve; its content follows in the docs commit.
An agent's harness connects to the swarm queue with the agent's own
credential or not at all. The first connect retries after 5s, doubling
(7 attempts, about five minutes), with a warning per failed attempt;
when every attempt fails the harness logs an error and exits 1. Missing
coordinates (HIVE_AGENT_NATS_URL, or the secret store's BAO_ADDR /
HIVE_AGENT_NAME / certificate) fail the boot outright.
Previously the first connect's outcome was memoized for the life of the
process: a store 403 or queue refusal at boot left the agent on the
hive's shared client, or disconnected, until someone restarted it, and
an agent with no queue coordinates ran on without one. Both paths are
gone, with the hive-scoped subjects that only the shared client used.
The harness unit now restarts after 30s instead of 2s, so a swarm-wide
outage doesn't restart every agent every 2s, and has no start limit, so
it keeps coming back however long the outage lasts.
The hive's shared client credential is still imported into the harness
unit for swarm-logs; the two HIVE_AGENT_OIDC_*_FILE variables that
pointed the harness at it are dropped, as is the unset
HIVE_AGENT_OIDC_CA_FILE override.
With the fallback gone, the pieces #4944 added only for it go too:
swarm_input's skip-on-shared-client branch and swarm-queue-client's
connect_with_inbox_prefix. swarm-nats-auth's grant for the hive's shared
agent client is unchanged.
Closes#4909
Scheduled prompts are swarm-level now (swarmctl schedule, #4936). The hive
keeps the rows it has only so the operator can copy them over.
- hive-c0re no longer fires anything: the scheduled-prompts worker is gone,
and with it every create/edit/cancel/pause/resume/fire path (dashboard
endpoints, agent-socket verbs, the SchedulePrompt approval kind and its
approve handler). The store keeps open + list; GET /api/schedules stays.
- A v6 approvals migration drops schedule_prompt rows.
- Nothing submits approvals any more, so the submit path goes too:
Approvals::submit_kind (now a test fixture), the ApprovalAdded dashboard
event and its emitter.
- Coordinator::push_todo, whose only caller was the worker, goes, and with
it hive_host_sock::agent_todo_socket and hive-c0re's hive-agent-sock /
hive-sock-client deps.
- The schedules_changed dashboard event goes; nothing mutates the rows.
- Agents lose request_schedule_prompt, cancel_schedule, fire_schedule_now,
edit_schedule and list_schedules, the `scheduling` tool group, their
system-prompt line and their transcript formatters. `remind` is unchanged.
An agent's queue credential could subscribe to every subject in the swarm
account, so any agent could read every other agent's terminal, turn state,
operator input and request replies. Agents are the least trusted clients
on the queue (mara's ruling on #4901), so their grants now carry a
subscribe allow-list:
- an agent's own credential (the harness and its subagent daemon):
`_INBOX.agent.<agent>.>` and `$SWARM.input.<agent>`
- the hive's shared agent client: `_INBOX.client.<client-id>.>`
Hive and swarm-controller grants are unchanged (no `sub` claim, so still
every subject).
The clients connect with the matching inbox prefix, so the replies they
rely on still arrive: the icon write's JetStream ack and the schedule
DIRECT.GET. `connect_with_token` takes the agent name and sets the prefix
itself; the hive-shared fallback uses the new
`connect_with_inbox_prefix`.
The harness no longer subscribes to its input subject when it fell back
to the hive's shared client: that identity names no agent, so it cannot
be granted one agent's input without all of them. It logs that and
skips, the same as the schedule reader on that path.
Refs #4901
swarm-controller keeps every scheduled prompt (id, name, agents, body,
anchor, interval, paused) as one document under one key of a new
`schedule-definitions` KV bucket, so each change is a single
compare-and-set and a prompt exists for all of its agents or none. It
writes each agent's key of a new `agent-schedules` bucket as the prompts
naming that agent, without names or other agents, after every change and
on a one-minute reconcile pass. It is the only writer of both, behind
GET/POST /api/schedules and PATCH/DELETE /api/schedules/{id}.
`swarmctl schedule add|list|edit|pause|resume|rm` drives those routes over
the controller socket.
An agent's own queue credential is granted one more subject, the direct
get of its own key in `agent-schedules`. A KV watch is not granted: its
consumer create subject carries no key, so it would cover every agent's.
hive-agent's new schedule ticker reads that key every 10 seconds and fires
due slots as the same `schedule:<id>` todo hive-c0re's worker pushes. Fire
times are anchor + k*interval; the last fired slot per schedule id is kept
in the state db, so a body edit or list refresh never moves or refires a
slot, downtime fires the latest missed slot once, a restart refires
nothing, a one-shot fires once, and paused slots are skipped.
