swarm-metrics reads the swarm's VictoriaMetrics from inside an agent
container: query, query-range, series, labels and label-values, each one
GET against the store's Prometheus read API through the gateway, printing
the store's JSON. It authenticates the way swarm-logs does, with the
agent's own queue secret read from bao under the agent's leaf, sent as
a swarm-agent bearer.
On the metrics store's host the read API's auth map gains an agent arm
ahead of the Grafana one. It routes to swarm-metrics-agent-auth, a
swarm-logs-auth instance logged in under the existing swarm-metrics-auth
leaf, whose bao grant now includes swarm/agents/+/queue read. The check is
rate-limited per address like the log store's
(deploy.victoriametrics.agentAuth{Rate,Burst,VerdictTtl}).
nix/agent-modules/metrics.nix installs the wrapped binary when the hive
forwards HIVE_AGENT_METRICS_URL (from swarm.victoriametrics.domain) and a
store address, the same gate as swarm-logs. Adds the base:swarm-metrics
skill and the CLI reference with its freshness check.
Fixes #5395

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, 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. - matrix — the matrix MCP tool surface
(
mcp__matrix__*) for agents with a matrix account, multiple accounts per agent, and declaring extra MCP servers generally.
