`status` could only answer running / starting / idle / killed / none, because every turn ran against `&NoopSink` and the whole stream-json stream was discarded. "Running" describes a wedged subagent exactly as well as a busy one, leaving a caller to tell them apart from `ps` output and CPU-time deltas. So the daemon now keeps a `name -> last_event_at` clock, bumped by `LivenessSink` on every line of every stream — stream-json events, plain stdout chatter and stderr alike — and `status` reports its age on a running answer: a few seconds means working, an age climbing into the minutes with no end-of-turn todo means wedged. Nothing is read out of the content; classifying *what* a subagent is doing is a separate question and waits on its own driver work. In memory with the rest of this daemon's state, dropped when the turn ends, no persistence. The clock is seeded at the spawn rather than at the first line, so a subagent that wedged before emitting anything still reports a climbing age rather than no age at all — the case an age is worth most in. Separately, `continue`'s existence pre-check is gone. It could only repeat the lookup `Claude::spawn` was about to do, and its message — "no session named `x` exists" — was false in the common failure: the session existed, just not under the claude home + cwd `build_store` resolved from. claude's own `--resume` is the authority and exits non-zero (`does not match any session title`) rather than quietly starting a fresh session, so the turn fails on its own. `classify_end` appends the one fact the CLI's message lacks — the directory searched: claude error: no session matched the requested id or title (searched <claude_home> for cwd <cwd>; if the session was started elsewhere, pass `dir`) The `dirs` map's durability is untouched; whether to persist it stays an open operator decision. Module doc, `docs/tools/subagent.md`, the `continue`/`status` tool descriptions and the `base:claude-subagents` skill all updated — including `continue`'s `dir` doc, which said "the daemon remembers it" without saying that a restart is both when it forgets and when you most want it.

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 hive online? →
getting-started/setup.md(first-runhivectlbootstrap). - 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, scheduling).
Agent lifecycle
- How do config changes flow from manager to operator to container? →
agent-lifecycle/approvals.md(approval kinds, approval state machine,flake.lockvalidation). - What state survives destroy / purge / restart? →
agent-lifecycle/persistence.md. - Who can do what to whom — agent hierarchy and privilege? →
agent-lifecycle/agent-hierarchy.md. - How does claude get its prompt, and what tools does it have? →
turn-loop/— the loop, binary shape, turn outcomes; sub-pages:claude-invocation,config,mcp.
Trust boundary & security
- What's the operator/agent trust boundary? What's a capability? →
trust-boundary/boundary.md. - Agent trust model, prompt-injection threat model, credential
isolation? →
trust-boundary/security.md.
Accounts & integrations
- How do per-agent forge accounts work? What does
forge_notifypoll, and how does it format wake messages? →integrations/forge.md(the hive's own Forgejo);tools/forge.mdfor thehive-forgeCLI verbs agents actually call. - How does the matrix-tuwunel container work? Multiple accounts per
agent? →
integrations/matrix.md(the homeserver);tools/matrix.mdfor the MCP tool surface andhyperhive.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; thegh/git-push + notification-poller mechanics are in a collapsed "Implementation" section at the bottom). - What's
/knowledge? How does the hive-wide knowledge repo sync, and how do I contribute a document? →integrations/knowledge.md. - What does
hivectldo? Provisioning, gateway users, container shells? →tools/hivectl.md(the curated guide);tools/hivectl-cli.mdfor 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 receiveendpoint authenticate a pushing hive? →networking/snapshot-store.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? What's the autoregistration flow? →
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 ownREADME.md, one level up from source; the crate itself is still the source of truth, this is just a walkable mirror.
Process & conventions
- Naming, commit style, wire protocol, the
data-asyncpattern? →process/conventions.md. - Why does the nspawn flag look like that? →
process/gotchas.md(bind mounts, conf flags, other NixOS/nspawn quirks). - What does a PR review verdict actually gate? →
process/pr-review-gate.md.
