atlas 2c066cc871 hive-c0re: pin the two security boundaries that had no test
`is_forbidden` and the webhook-secret load/regenerate path were the last two
entries on the shortlist in hyperhive/hyperhive#3950; the other three landed in
hyperhive/hyperhive#4650. Both are classification logic whose failure mode is
silence, which is why they are worth a test rather than a coverage line.

`is_forbidden` gates the arms that tell an operator a Forgejo admin PATCH was
refused for want of a scope, and which credential to delete and re-mint to fix
it. One of those PATCHes is `ensure_repo_creation_disabled` — the lockdown that
stops an agent creating a repo it owns and self-merging in it. Two tests: a 403
is recognised in both shapes the typed client produces (the spec-listed
`Forbidden` kind and the bare `UnexpectedStatusCode`), and nothing else is —
not a 401, whose remedy is the automatic re-mint one function down, and not a
transport error that never reached the forge at all.

`load_or_generate` grows the path-taking half `load_or_generate_at`, the same
seam `swarm-controller`'s `webhook::load_or_generate_at` already has and for
the same stated reason. Three tests over it: a valid stored secret is returned
verbatim and never rotated (the newline this module writes itself makes the
trim load-bearing, not defensive); a malformed one is replaced by a secret that
reaches *disk*, not just the caller, and is then stable; and each near miss —
empty, whitespace, 63 chars, 65 chars, right length with a non-hex char — is
refused. That last one is the security case: `Hmac::new_from_slice` accepts a
key of any length, empty included, so a relaxed check fails nowhere and just
keys every signature off a guessable value.

Every test was confirmed able to fail: six mutations of the code under test,
each watched red, then reverted. The two halves of the validity check and the
two arms of `is_forbidden` were broken separately, so neither test passes on
one arm alone.

hive-c0re

The unprivileged host daemon (runs as hive-core). Owns the sqlite broker, the approval/reminder/schedule queues, the generic job-DAG queue, container lifecycle, gateway/forge/matrix provisioning, per-container stats, and the axum operator dashboard. Largest crate in the workspace — bin-only, no separate lib.

When to use it

Host-level, cross-container orchestration: spawning/rebuilding/ destroying agent containers, the approval flow, dashboard-visible state, provisioning per-agent forge/matrix/gateway accounts. Agent-side behavior (turn loop, MCP tools) lives in hive-agent/hive-agent-mcp instead — this daemon only talks to agents over the socket wire types in hive-sh4re.

Shape

Cohesive clusters live in directory submodules, each re-exported at the crate root (crate::broker::… keeps resolving regardless of which subdirectory a module actually lives in). One line each — read the module's own //! doc-comment for real detail, don't expect this file to track it:

  • dashboard/ — the operator dashboard (containers, approvals, schedules, logs, topology).
  • job_queue/ — the job-DAG queue + desired-state reconciliation (docs/scheduler/coordinator.md).
  • lifecycle/nixos-container lifecycle + per-agent config flake generation.
  • stores/ — sqlite-backed stores (broker, queues, audit, power).
  • workers/ — background sweeps (crash watch, scheduled prompts, auto-update, knowledge sync).
  • agent_config/ — per-agent registries (tool groups, capabilities, resource limits, topology).
  • stats/ — dashboard metrics aggregation + OTEL export.
  • socket_server/ — the unix-socket request server shared by per-agent + manager sockets.
  • forge/ — optional Forgejo wiring (docs/integrations/forge.md).
  • coordinator.rs — top-level wiring for serve.
  • meta.rs, migrate.rs — the meta flake + schema/state migrations.
  • matrix.rs, gateway_nginx.rs, webhook_secret.rs, priv_client.rs — matrix provisioning, gateway vhosts, webhook secrets, and the hive-priv client respectively.
