iris 90e33cbd19 hive-c0re: the per-agent resource limit override is gone
The hive no longer sets an agent's CPU or memory cap: caps come from the swarm, else the hive-wide defaults. The container load tab was the only hive UI that set them, and its figures are already exported as OTEL metrics, so with the tab gone nothing wrote meta/resource-limits.json.

Removed: the file's reader and writer, the `hivectl agent set-limits` verb with its host-socket request, the `GET /api/container-resources` and `POST /api/resource-limits/{name}` dashboard endpoints, and the `cpu_quota`/`memory_max` fields of the container view that only the tab read. A leftover resource-limits.json is ignored.

hyperhive docs

Depth reference for hyperhive — the substrate, not the pitch (that's the top-level README / website). Every page here stands alone; pick the one matching your task rather than reading top to bottom. For the autogenerated NixOS options reference (every services.hyperhive.* / hyperhive.* option, host and agent), see the options site instead — this tree is prose, that one's generated straight from the module declarations.

Getting started

  • Bringing a fresh swarm online? → getting-started/setup.md (the hand steps after the first switch).
  • What does the dashboard look like, and how do I use it? → web-ui/ — the operator-facing starting point; its own sub-pages (shape, dashboard, agent, css-vars, terminal-rendering) go deeper into implementation.
  • What tools does an agent (or the operator) have available? → tools/ — hivectl (yours) plus every agent's MCP tool surface (bash, forge, lifecycle, matrix).

Agent lifecycle

Trust boundary & security

Accounts & integrations

  • How do per-agent forge accounts work? What does forge_notify poll, and how does it format wake messages? → integrations/forge.md (the swarm's Forgejo); tools/forge.md for the hive-forge CLI verbs agents actually call.
  • How does the matrix-tuwunel container work? Multiple accounts per agent? → integrations/matrix.md (the homeserver); tools/matrix.md for the MCP tool surface and services.hyperhive.agent.matrixAccounts.
  • How do I give an agent a GitHub account (gh + git push)? how's the PAT injected? → integrations/github.md (operator content up top; the gh/git-push + notification-poller mechanics are in a collapsed "Implementation" section at the bottom).
  • What's /knowledge? How does the swarm-wide knowledge repo sync, and how do I contribute a document? → integrations/knowledge.md.
  • What does hivectl do? Provisioning, gateway users, container shells? → tools/hivectl.md (the curated guide); tools/hivectl-cli.md for the exhaustive, autogenerated flag reference.

Networking & swarms

  • What nginx vhosts does the gateway serve? How does matrix discovery work? → networking/gateway.md.
  • How does DNS resolution work in agent containers? What's the bridge network for? → networking/network.md.
  • How do I connect two hives into a swarm? → swarm/ (peer hives, TLS trust).
  • Where do agent snapshots go? How does the swarm's btrfs receive endpoint authenticate a pushing hive? → networking/snapshot-store.md.
  • Who mints each credential, who reads it, and how does it rotate — and where's that shape headed? → swarm/credentials.md (current state, target state, and the progressive-enhancement rule); swarm/secrets.md for where each file lives today.
  • How does the secret store come up, who writes its grants, how's it sealed? → swarm/bao.md.
  • How does an agent get a prompt at set times, and why doesn't it fire twice after downtime? → swarm/schedules.md.
  • How do I set an agent's model or effort from the swarm, and what happens to its own pick? → swarm/inference.md.
  • How will a PR get checked against its repo's own yes/no rules before a full review? → swarm/review-classifier.md (planned, not implemented yet).
  • Does an agent config PR build before it's merged? → swarm/builder.md.

Scheduler, CI, observability

  • what's the job queue, as a general idea (not hive-c0re specifics)? → scheduler/jobq.md — operator-facing, no implementation detail.
  • How does the rebuild queue work? What are the concrete step kinds, queue sources, scheduler internals? → scheduler/coordinator.md.
  • How does the CI runner work? How does it register? → scheduler/ci.md.
  • How do I export Claude Code metrics (tokens, cost, tool calls) to Prometheus/Grafana? → scheduler/observability.md.

Crate reference

  • What does a specific Rust crate do, on its own terms? → crates/ — every workspace crate's own README.md, one level up from source; the crate itself is still the source of truth, this is just a walkable mirror.
