# hyperhive frontend

npm workspaces project for the hyperhive browser-facing assets:

- `packages/shared/` — shared modules used by both surfaces (terminal
  pane, Catppuccin palette + body typography).
- `packages/dashboard/` — the hive-c0re dashboard SPA.
- `packages/agent/` — the per-container web UI (default agent page,
  stats, screen).

## Build

```
npm install            # one-off; uses the checked-in package-lock.json
npm run build          # builds every workspace into packages/*/dist/
```

The Rust binaries serve `packages/dashboard/dist/` and
`packages/agent/dist/` via `tower_http::ServeDir` at runtime; the
build derivation is wired up in `nix/modules/frontend.nix`. Per-agent
additions are layered on top of the default agent dist via the
`hyperhive.frontend.extraFiles` option in `agent.nix`.

## Why npm + esbuild

- **Hermetic**: dependencies vendored via the checked-in lockfile;
  `buildNpmPackage` in nix uses it as the source-of-truth so the
  output is reproducible without network access at build time.
- **esbuild**: vanilla-JS bundler, no framework runtime overhead.
  Each workspace's `build.mjs` is ~30 lines.
- **Single-PR migration**: see issue #273 for the design proposal and
  the four-commit shape (npm scaffold → nix derivations → container
  plumbing → Rust cutover).
