atlas 2f00f9041f agent permissions: drop hive-c0re's swarm-agent-permissions.json fallback, fail closed before the first read
Removes the HiveCopy hand-off: hive-c0re no longer writes each agent's
entry from swarm-agent-permissions.json into its runtime dir as
swarm-permissions.json, and the harness and subagent daemon no longer
read it. hive-c0re keeps the file as its own last read of the swarm for
the manage_root_agent mounts. Also removes permissions_import::pending(),
its only caller being the hand-off. No nix provisioned the copy, so no
nix option is removed and no tombstone is needed.

Rule after this change: until an agent's first successful read of its
key it holds no permissions (no execution, so no bash), and a subagent it
starts holds the same. After a read a set key wins, [] holds none and an
unset key is the default. A failed read keeps the last value, so an
unreachable queue at start keeps the agent closed until a read succeeds.
The harness logs once at warn that it starts closed.

Fixes #5315

hive-agent

The in-container harness serve-loop binary — one instance per agent. Long-polls the broker inbox and drives one turn per inbox message through hive-runtime, on the agent's runtime (claude --print by default, or an ACP agent). It has one role (agent); the Surface trait + AgentSurface zero-sized type tag keep the turn loop generic and testable for future roles without a parallel copy of the loop.

When to use it

You don't call into this crate from elsewhere — it's the top-level binary systemd starts per agent container. Look here when you need to understand or change: what happens between a message landing in the inbox and the agent's reply, how the harness bootstraps login/auth, how it serves the per-agent web UI, or how turn/event stats get recorded. Architecture detail lives in docs/turn-loop/; this README is just the map of the module tree.

Shape

  • main.rs — the serve loop and the Surface trait; broker calls (inbox poll, ack, send) go through hive-sock-client with hive-core-agent-sock wire types.
  • turn.rs — the turn-loop policy layer: renders the system prompt + MCP config, runs the turn through hive-runtime, classifies the outcome, and feeds the event/turn-stats sinks.
  • login.rs / login_session.rs — first-run and session-resume auth flow for the claude CLI.
  • mcp_config.rs — renders the per-turn --mcp-config / --allowedTools blob from the agent's permissions.
  • todos.rs / reminders.rs / todo_server.rs — the harness-local loose-ends v2 stores (sqlite-backed) and the in-agent socket server extra MCP daemons + hive-agent-mcp dial into for todo/reminder ops.
  • vacuum.rs — periodic sqlite vacuum sweep for the harness-local stores.
  • events.rs / turn_stats.rs / stats.rs — append-only event sink and per-turn telemetry recording (context usage, cost, tool favorites) under harness/.
  • prompt.rs — system-prompt renderer (persona + tool docs + environment facts).
  • web_ui/ — the per-agent dashboard (terminal pane, status, schedules) served over the built-in hive-agent web port.
  • paths.rs — canonical path resolution for state/harness dirs and the harness-local sqlite files.

Siblings: hive-agent-mcp (the MCP server this loop points the agent at every turn) and hive-runtime (the library a turn runs through). docs/turn-loop/::Harness binary shape covers all three together.
