Cross-hive trust was O(n²) hand-pinning: every hive had to name every peer's CA. A swarm root makes it O(1) — trust the root once and every present and future peer validates. The root is generated by a new `swarm-ca` unit on a single-host swarm and operator-provided otherwise; `swarm.ca.autoConfigure` picks between them and derives its default from `swarm.peers` being empty, so "all on one host" is read off the deployment rather than remembered. Both modes produce the same artifacts in the same places, so splitting hosts later is moving the service dirs, not switching code paths. The root key never enters the nix store, and the root is never regenerated automatically — replacing it invalidates every peer at once. Each hive CA carries `nameConstraints` pinned to that hive's domain, so a leaked hive CA can only mint names inside its own subdomain, enforced by verifiers rather than by convention. `ca.pem` was serving as both the issuer and the anchor consumers trust; those are the same file only while it is self-signed. openssl will not terminate a chain at a trusted cert that isn't self-signed (rustls and Go will), so the promotion would have broken some consumers and not others. `hive-tls-ca` now also writes `trust-bundle.pem` — the hive CA plus whatever it is rooted at — and every anchor consumer reads that: agents, the CI and forge containers, and the peer-config recipe. On a hive with no swarm root the bundle is just that CA, so nothing consuming it needs a mode to branch on. |

hive-c0re
The unprivileged host daemon (runs as hive-core). Owns the sqlite
broker, the approval/question/schedule queues, the generic job-DAG
queue, container lifecycle, gateway/forge/matrix provisioning,
per-container stats, and the axum operator dashboard. Largest crate in
the workspace — bin-only, no separate lib.
When to use it
Host-level, cross-container orchestration: spawning/rebuilding/
destroying agent containers, the approval flow, dashboard-visible
state, provisioning per-agent forge/matrix/gateway accounts. Agent-side
behavior (turn loop, MCP tools) lives in hive-agent/hive-agent-mcp
instead — this daemon only talks to agents over the socket wire types
in hive-sh4re.
Shape
Cohesive clusters live in directory submodules, each re-exported at
the crate root (crate::broker::… keeps resolving regardless of which
subdirectory a module actually lives in). One line each — read the
module's own //! doc-comment for real detail, don't expect this file
to track it:
dashboard/— the operator dashboard (containers, approvals, schedules, questions, logs, topology).job_queue/— the job-DAG queue + desired-state reconciliation (docs/coordinator.md).lifecycle/—nixos-containerlifecycle + per-agent config flake generation.stores/— sqlite-backed stores (broker, queues, audit, power).workers/— background sweeps (crash watch, scheduled prompts, auto-update, knowledge sync).agent_config/— per-agent registries (tool groups, capabilities, resource limits, topology).stats/— dashboard metrics aggregation + OTEL export.socket_server/— the unix-socket request server shared by per-agent + manager sockets.forge/— optional Forgejo wiring (docs/forge.md).coordinator.rs— top-level wiring forserve.meta.rs,migrate.rs— the meta flake + schema/state migrations.matrix.rs,gateway_nginx.rs,webhook_secret.rs,priv_client.rs— matrix provisioning, gateway vhosts, webhook secrets, and thehive-privclient respectively.
