The gateway's nginx + dnsmasq no longer run in their own nspawn container. `nix/host-modules/hive-gateway/default.nix` loses the `containers.hive-gateway` wrapper and everything that existed only to punch holes in it: `privateNetwork = false`, `CAP_NET_ADMIN`, five bind mounts, its own `stateVersion`, `networking.firewall.enable = false`, `networking.resolvconf.enable = false`, and the `hive-gateway-resolv` path+service pair. 465 -> 303 lines. The container never bought isolation here. It shared the host netns by necessity — nginx binds the host's :80/:443, dnsmasq answers on the bridge — so each of those settings was undoing a boundary the gateway could not afford in the first place. Four things made it more than a deletion, none of them visible in the nix diff: - The self-signed cert service also imports the hive CA leaf, so removing it with the container would have left nginx naming a missing cert file, which it refuses to load at all. - The nginx reload is a hive-priv verb. It still needs root, but no longer for the reason its doc gave, and `--machine=` was both transport and scope — so the unit name is now hard-coded in the helper as the containment. - The lifecycle verb named a container that stops existing. - `journalctl -M hive-gateway` had no machine to enter. Per the operator's ruling, the operator verb keeps working and agents lose it. `InfraContainer` answered three questions that used to share an answer; it now splits into `name()` (identity), `target()` (Container vs HostUnit), `service_unit()` (the systemd unit), and `agent_restartable()`, which the MCP restart path checks before the capability so the refusal cannot read as "ask for infra_admin". `SIBLING_CONTAINERS` drops the gateway — it gates the requests that name a container as a string — while `FromStr` still accepts it, because that answers what a name is, not who may act on it. The dashboard's gateway journal reads host journald filtered to `nginx.service`. Prose was corrected where it only named a location, and re-argued where the container was doing security work: a `0666` per-agent socket was safe because only the gateway container had the directory bind-mounted. There is no mount now, so the directory permissions are the whole of the access control — the constraint holds, its mechanism doesn't. Gate: nix fmt / clippy --all-targets -D warnings / cargo test all clean (710 tests); hivectl-cli.md regenerated from the clap tree. The nix eval was run in both TLS shapes at this commit: every delta in the rendered virtualHosts is one of the three intended path moves, dnsmasq settings are byte-identical, and the absence probe flips true -> false with bindMounts emptied. |

swarm-controller
The swarm-level daemon. Where hive-c0re owns the agents on one host, this
owns what is true across hives — so a swarm runs one of them and most hives
leave it off.
Opt-in per host via services.hyperhive.swarm.controller.enable, which is
deliberately not derived from services.hyperhive.enable: turning it on is
a statement about swarm topology, not about whether hyperhive is installed.
What it does today
Serves one /health endpoint and holds no state.
That is the whole intent of the first slice. The point is to make the unit
real — service user, runtime and state directories, socket, nginx
reachability — so the swarm-level surfaces that follow have somewhere to land.
Inventing those surfaces before they are agreed would bake in a shape nobody
chose. See #3066 and the hyperhive.swarm consolidation epic.
Why a unix socket, not a port
The hive-gateway's nginx is the only intended client and reaches the socket through a bind-mount. A listener that is never bound to an address cannot be reached from off-host by mistake.
The socket path is services.hyperhive.swarm.controller.socketPath, default
/run/swarm-controller/controller.sock, exported to the process as
SWARM_CONTROLLER_SOCKET.
⚠️ The socket's directory is its access control
The socket is 0666. It has to be: nginx runs as a different user and
connect(2) needs write. This matches how hive-c0re publishes the per-agent
sockets, and rests on the same argument — "the bind source dir is per-agent on
host so blast radius is unchanged."
What keeps that safe is that the directory holds one socket. So:
Never point
socketPathat a directory that carries anything else./run/hyperhiveabove all — it holdshost.sock, the host admin socket. Pointing nginx at that directory to reach this socket would put the admin socket within its reach too.
This got less forgiving when nginx moved onto the host: the gateway used to reach a unix upstream through a bind-mount, so the mount list was a second bound on what it could touch. There is no mount now — the directory is the whole of the access control. A unit test pins the default path so a tidying edit fails instead of reviewing cleanly.
RuntimeDirectoryPreserve=yes and the daemon's stale-socket unlink on start are
a pair: preserving the directory without the unlink means bind fails with
EADDRINUSE after a restart.
Packaging
Built by the workspace derivation and extracted as its own package
(nix build .#swarm-controller). Deliberately not in nix/packages'
daemonBins — that list is the core stack and drives the bundle
services.hyperhive.c0re.package points at, so folding this in would put a
swarm-scoped service into every hive's closure.
