Project-bootstrap scope per the issue: static build as a nix pkg,
empty start page for now, functionality deferred until auth against
authelia is figured out. Stack (Preact + wouter + TypeScript + JSX)
matches the shell decision from the earlier framework-paths thread —
a real SPA shell with a router and deep links, distinct from the
per-hive dashboard's vanilla-JS + custom-element MPA.
- New npm workspace frontend/packages/swarm-ui: one route (/), a
wouter Switch/Route shell, a 404 fallback. Reuses @hive/shared's
colors.css/theme.css/base.css for visual consistency; no other
shared JS (the vanilla-JS el()/dom.js helpers are superseded by
Preact in this shell).
- nix/packages/swarm-ui.nix: its own buildNpmPackage derivation
(scoped to just this workspace via an explicit buildPhase), not
folded into nix/packages/frontend.nix's packages.default closure —
same reasoning swarm-controller/swarmctl already use for staying out
of daemonBins: a hive that doesn't run the swarm controller
shouldn't carry swarm-ui bytes.
- npmDepsHash recomputed in both frontend.nix and swarm-ui.nix (same
shared lockfile, new deps: preact, wouter-preact, typescript).
- Added swarm-ui to nix/checks.nix alongside frontend, for the same
FOD-staleness reason plus being the only thing that actually builds
it in CI (not in packages.default's closure like frontend is, so
nix flake check wouldn't otherwise touch it).
- npm run typecheck (tsc --noEmit) is available locally; not yet wired
into CI — esbuild transpiles TS without type-checking, so that's a
real gap, left as a follow-up rather than growing this bootstrap PR
with a new CI workflow step.
Verified: nix build .#swarm-ui and .#frontend both succeed; npm run
build (root, all workspaces) succeeds; tsc --noEmit clean;
scripts/check-issue-refs.sh clean.
Both mdNode implementations (agent UI app.js, dashboard common.js)
assigned marked.parse() output straight to innerHTML with no
sanitizer. marked v5+ dropped its built-in sanitize option, and there
was no DOMPurify anywhere in frontend/, so markdown containing raw
HTML/script tags rendered live in the browser.
Both sinks receive untrusted input in practice: the agent UI's mdNode
renders recv tool_result bodies, assistant prose, and send/ask/answer
payloads sourced from peer agents and matrix-relayed messages (the
documented prompt-injection adversary); the dashboard's mdNode renders
agent-authored .md files served verbatim by GET /api/state-file
(the endpoint validates path, not content). Since the per-agent UI and
dashboard are same-origin behind the gateway with operator-authority
endpoints (approve/spawn/rebuild/destroy/answer-question), injected
script would run with the operator's session.
Fix: DOMPurify.sanitize() the marked.parse() output at both sinks
before assigning to innerHTML. Added dompurify as a dependency to
both the agent and dashboard npm workspaces, recomputed npmDepsHash
in nix/frontend.nix for the updated lockfile. Also corrected
docs/web-ui/shape.md, which claimed the markdown-rendering path was
XSS-safe by construction the same way the text-node-based linkify
path is — it isn't; it's safe because it's sanitized.
CSP hardening for the dashboard (no unsafe-inline) is a separate,
larger backend change (response headers in hive-c0re) and is left as
a fast-follow rather than folded into this fix.
Follow-up to 9e558c3. Runs `npm install` with the new nodejs_22 + npm
toolchain that just landed in iris's container (approval dfae406),
which generates the lockfile + node_modules tree. Only the lockfile
is checked in; node_modules/ stays in .gitignore.
Pinned versions (resolved by npm from the package.json constraints):
- chart.js 4.4.4 (replaces the jsDelivr CDN script on stats.html)
- marked 4.3.0 (replaces hive-fr0nt/assets/marked.umd.js)
- esbuild 0.25.5 (bumped from 0.24.0 to clear an audit warning
about the dev-server CSRF advisory; bundling
behaviour is unaffected)
Validated locally:
npm install — 0 vulnerabilities reported
npm run build — both workspace builds succeed
dashboard: dist/{app.js (149kb), dashboard.css (33kb), index.html}
agent: dist/{app.js (114kb), stats.js (435kb), agent.css (16kb),
index.html, stats.html, screen.html}
Stripped-comment diff of dist/dashboard.css vs the runtime concat
(BASE_CSS + TERMINAL_CSS + assets/dashboard.css) shows only
whitespace + comment-strip differences — selectors/properties match.
Hermetic-build wiring (the Nix `buildNpmPackage` derivation that
consumes this lockfile) lands in Phase 2 on a follow-up commit.
