atlas 45568f6e60 matrix: back up agents' room keys with a controller-minted recovery passphrase 
An agent's matrix encryption keys lived only in its local crypto store, so
`destroy --purge` or a primary-account token reset lost every encrypted
room's history with no way back (#5022).

swarm-controller now mints a random passphrase (32 bytes from the kernel's
CSPRNG, base64url) for every account listed under each agent's `matrix/`
directory, at `swarm/agents/<agent>/matrix-recovery/<account>`, in a
five-minute pass. The write is a cas=0 create after a read; a path that
holds anything is never replaced, and a create that loses a race counts as
done. The controller's existing `data/swarm/agents/*` grant covers the
write and the agent's own `agents/<agent>/*` read grant covers the read, so
no policy changes.

hive-matrix-daemon reads the passphrase when it brings an account up, after
cross-signing: with no backup on the homeserver it enables recovery with it
(backup + secret storage); with one there it recovers, which imports the
backup key and the self-signing key, and room keys then download through
`BackupDownloadStrategy::OneShot`. No passphrase yet logs at INFO and the
account comes up without backup; any failure logs WARN and never stops the
daemon.

Recovery runs after `ensure_cross_signing`, not before: on a new account
cross-signing must exist locally for `enable` to export it into secret
storage, and on an existing identity `bootstrap_cross_signing_if_needed` is
a no-op, leaving `recover` to import and sign.

Part of #5022 (S1+S2, with the S4 docs).

README.md

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 swarm online? → getting-started/setup.md (the hand steps after the first switch).
  • 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).

Agent lifecycle

Trust boundary & security

Accounts & integrations

  • How do per-agent forge accounts work? What does forge_notify poll, and how does it format wake messages? → integrations/forge.md (the swarm's Forgejo); tools/forge.md for the hive-forge CLI verbs agents actually call.
  • How does the matrix-tuwunel container work? Multiple accounts per agent? → integrations/matrix.md (the homeserver); tools/matrix.md for the MCP tool surface and services.hyperhive.agent.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; the gh/git-push + notification-poller mechanics are in a collapsed "Implementation" section at the bottom).
  • What's /knowledge? How does the swarm-wide knowledge repo sync, and how do I contribute a document? → integrations/knowledge.md.
  • What does hivectl do? Provisioning, gateway users, container shells? → tools/hivectl.md (the curated guide); tools/hivectl-cli.md for 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 receive endpoint authenticate a pushing hive? → networking/snapshot-store.md.
  • Who mints each credential, who reads it, and how does it rotate — and where's that shape headed? → swarm/credentials.md (current state, target state, and the progressive-enhancement rule); swarm/secrets.md for where each file lives today.
  • How does the secret store come up, who writes its grants, how's it sealed? → swarm/bao.md.
  • How does an agent get a prompt at set times, and why doesn't it fire twice after downtime? → swarm/schedules.md.
  • How do I set an agent's model or effort from the swarm, and what happens to its own pick? → swarm/inference.md.
  • How will a PR get checked against its repo's own yes/no rules before a full review? → swarm/review-classifier.md (planned, not implemented yet).

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? How does it register? → 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 own README.md, one level up from source; the crate itself is still the source of truth, this is just a walkable mirror.
