Adds the caller the fd-passing machinery existed for: hivectl agent <name> subvol snapshot push --peer <hive> resolves the peer, connects to its snapshot store, writes the agent header, and hands the connected socket to hive-priv, which runs btrfs send straight into it. The split keeps the root helper ignorant. Everything that involves knowing where a peer is, what the wire protocol looks like, and which hive to trust happens in the unprivileged daemon; hive-priv only ever receives an already-open descriptor. Once btrfs send starts, neither process is in the data path, so a multi-gigabyte transfer costs no per-byte work and survives a hive-c0re restart. call_with_fd takes the descriptor by value and closes it as soon as the kernel has it. A socket stays open until every copy closes, so holding one back would leave the receiver waiting for an EOF that never comes: btrfs receive blocks and this side reports success for a transfer the peer never committed. Ownership makes that unrepresentable. The peer's store port is a new swarm.peers.<domain>.snapshotStorePort option rather than a constant matching the module default. A pushing hive cannot read the receiver's configuration, so assuming 51821 would push at a port nobody promised to listen on; absent, the push fails naming the option. swarm_peers parses the mesh address the host module has always rendered into HYPERHIVE_PEERS but nothing read. |

hivectl
The operator-facing host CLI. A thin client for the hive-c0re
daemon — speaks the host admin socket protocol (hive-host-sock) and
does not link the daemon crate. Container lifecycle, the approval
queue, and provisioning verbs all forward to the daemon and need it
running; a few (wg/peer-config, choom) work off local host state
instead.
When to use it
Reach for this crate when adding an operator-run host command — agents
talk to the daemon over their own MCP tool surface
(hive-agent-mcp), not this binary. hivectl is what a human operator
(or a host-side script) runs.
Shape
One module per subcommand family; main.rs is just the clap parse +
dispatch:
agents.rs— container lifecycle (spawn/kill/rebuild/restart/…).approvals.rs— the config/init-config/meta-input approval queue.dag_progress.rs— rebuild-queue progress rendering.power.rs— restart/start/stop at the container level.choom.rs— drop into an interactive claude session in a container.forge.rs,matrix.rs,github.rs,gateway.rs— per-integration account/token provisioning.wg.rs— WireGuard mesh helpers.subvol.rs— btrfs state-subvolume ops.quota.rs,util.rs,completions.rs,open.rs— shared helpers, shell completions, browser-open.
