-### The warning about uncovered service names
-
-The swarm's service names (`swarm.forge.domain`,
-`swarm.matrix.gatewayHost`, `swarm.authelia.domain`) default to
-siblings of the hive domain — `forge.<swarm.domain>`, not
-`forge.<hive domain>`. The hive CA's leaf is a **single-label** wildcard
-over the hive's own domain, so it cannot cover them; only the
-swarm-services leaf can, and this host signs that one only under
-`autoConfigure`. A hive with neither serves the hive leaf on those names
-and every client sees a name mismatch.
-
-So `hive-tls` emits an eval-time **warning** naming the uncovered names.
-It is deliberately not an assertion: this module can see what *it* is
-able to issue, but not an operator-installed sub-CA in
-`swarm.ca.stateDir`, an external ACME setup, or a certificate delivered
-by any other means. If you have arranged one, the warning is expected
-and can be ignored. Otherwise either install the sub-CA, or pin the
-names back under the hive domain — a supported migration, since the
-sub-CA is constrained to the *configured* names and the swarm root
-carries no name constraints at all.
