# hivectl

The operator-facing host CLI. A thin client for the `hive-c0re`
daemon — speaks the host admin socket protocol (`hive-host-sock`) and
does not link the daemon crate. Container lifecycle, the approval
queue, and provisioning verbs all forward to the daemon and need it
running; a few (`wg`/`peer-config`, `choom`) work off local host state
instead.

## When to use it

Reach for this crate when adding an operator-run host command — agents
talk to the daemon over their own MCP tool surface
(`hive-agent-mcp`), not this binary. `hivectl` is what a human operator
(or a host-side script) runs.

## Shape

One module per subcommand family; `main.rs` is just the clap parse +
dispatch:

- **`agents.rs`** — container lifecycle (start/stop/create/kill/rebuild/restart/…).
- **`approvals.rs`** — the config/init-config/meta-input approval queue.
- **`dag_progress.rs`** — rebuild-queue progress rendering.
- **`power.rs`** — restart/start/stop at the container level.
- **`choom.rs`** — drop into an interactive claude session in a
  container.
- **`forge.rs`**, **`matrix.rs`**, **`github.rs`**, **`gateway.rs`** —
  per-integration account/token provisioning.
- **`wg.rs`** — WireGuard mesh helpers.
- **`subvol.rs`** — btrfs state-subvolume ops.
- **`quota.rs`**, **`util.rs`**, **`completions.rs`**, **`open.rs`** —
  shared helpers, shell completions, browser-open.
