A swarm runs one homeserver and every hive on it logged in as the same `@hive:` localpart, holding the same access token out of one swarm-wide store path. That is one matrix identity for N hives: the homeserver cannot attribute an action to the hive that took it, and revoking one hive's standing revokes every hive's. Three changes, and the third is the one that makes the other two real: - **The localpart carries the hive's name** (`hive-<hive>`), derived in one place, `swarm_secret_client::matrix::hive_localpart`. `hive-matrix.nix` renders the same string as the appservice registration's `sender_localpart`, so the shared account stops being created rather than merely stops being used. - **The store path is templated by hive**, not a constant. The "a swarm runs one homeserver, so this is a constant rather than a parameter" rationale went with it; it stopped holding the moment two hives shared the homeserver it describes. - **The path moved out from under the grant every hive has.** It sat at `swarm/services/matrix/sender-token`, inside the `secret/data/swarm/services/*` read stanza `policy::render` gives every hive. It now sits under that hive's own stanza, `secret/data/swarm/hives/<hive>/*`, which interpolates the reader's name — so a hive reads its own token and is refused another's. The policy renderer itself is unchanged: narrowing the `services/*` grant would break the OIDC-secret read it exists for, and moving the credential is what this needed instead. A policy test walks the rendered stanzas and asserts none of hive alpha's covers hive beta's sender token, so a later stanza that widened it fails here. `swarm-matrix-ctl` takes a new required `MATRIX_MINT_HIVE` and writes that hive's path; its store grant in `swarm-bao.nix` follows, scoped to one hive's leaf via the new `deploy.bao.matrixCtlHiveName` (defaulting to this host's `hiveName`) rather than a `hives/*` wildcard, which would hand the matrix container every hive's token back. Migration: no outage at deploy. `ensure_hive_user` short-circuits on the local token file, so a hive keeps running on what it has; with no such file it reads the new per-hive path, finds nothing, and falls through to the existing register-or-appservice-login ladder against its own localpart — which needs only the per-hive `as_token` on local disk. The old shared object is read by nothing afterwards. Rooms do not follow the identity, and that is the one operator step; both ways out are written into `docs/integrations/matrix.md`. No admin standing is granted to the per-hive accounts: `admin_execute` stays empty and the assertion pinning it is untouched. |

Tools
hivectl is your tool — the operator's own host CLI. Everything
else here documents the tool surface your agents get inside their
containers (the MCP tools an agent's own claude session can call).
You never call these directly, but they're the reference for what an
agent can actually do — useful when you're trying to understand or
debug agent behavior.
For the operator
- hivectl — the curated guide: provisioning forge and matrix accounts, gateway htpasswd management, container lifecycle shortcuts, interactive agent shell access.
- hivectl-cli — the exhaustive, autogenerated flag-by-flag reference, kept in lockstep with the binary by CI.
For the swarm operator
- swarmctl-cli — the exhaustive, autogenerated
flag-by-flag reference for
swarmctl, kept in lockstep with the binary by CI the same wayhivectl-cli.mdis.swarmctlitself runs as root on the swarm-controller host, not throughhivectl— seeswarmctl/README.mdfor why. Two verb families today:user(authelia's subject store, edited in place) andagent create(queues the swarm-controller's creation job graph). No curated guide yet; add one here if/when that grows.
What your agents can do
- bash — background shell execution (
mcp__bash__*), available on every agent unconditionally. - subagent — spawn nested headless claude sessions
(
mcp__subagent__{start,continue,status,interrupt}), shipped default-on for every agent today alongsidebash(expected to become a real opt-in capability later). - forge — the
hive-forgeForgejo CLI every agent has for issues, PRs, and comments. Not an MCP tool — a binary agents shell out to instead of ad-hoc curl. - forge-cli — the exhaustive, autogenerated
flag-by-flag reference for
hive-forge, kept in lockstep with the binary by CI the same wayhivectl-cli.mdis. - lifecycle — listing the agents in a caller's own subtree, plus the approval-gated config-change tools.
- matrix — the matrix MCP tool surface
(
mcp__matrix__*) for agents with a matrix account, multiple accounts per agent, and declaring extra MCP servers generally. - scheduling — scheduled prompts (operator
approval required) and the
get_host_journaldiagnostics tool.
