Substitutes 'for example' for 'e.g.' and 'that is' for 'i.e.' per Microsoft style, with no comma after the replacement -- this repo never puts a comma after e.g./i.e. either, so the substituted phrase matches that house style instead of vale's literal 'for example,' suggestion. Covers all 77 real hits (72 from the initial vale pass + 5 more of the same pattern found on a follow-up vale run). None of the flagged instances were sentence-initial, so there's no capitalization concern here. Verified via a fresh vale run: 0 remaining Microsoft.Foreign hits. Full accounting in /agents/iris/state/haiku-batches/foreign-report.md.

# Scheduling and diagnostics tools
|
|
|
|
## `scheduling` tool group
|
|
|
|
Scheduled prompts fan a message body out to one or more agent inboxes
|
|
at a future time, optionally recurring. All scheduling ops go through
|
|
the operator approval queue (even self-targeted schedules — use
|
|
`remind` for unapproved self-wake). Authorization for read/cancel/edit
|
|
ops: you can act on schedules you own or any owned by a sub-agent in
|
|
your topology subtree.
|
|
|
|
### `request_schedule_prompt(targets, body, first_fire_at_unix, interval_seconds?, description?)`
|
|
|
|
Queue an operator-approval for a scheduled prompt. On approve,
|
|
`body` is fanned out to each agent in `targets` at
|
|
`first_fire_at_unix` (Unix timestamp). Recurring when `interval_seconds`
|
|
is set, one-shot otherwise.
|
|
|
|
Catch-up clamp: if hive-c0re is down across multiple intervals, only
|
|
ONE delayed fire happens on resume (per recurring schedule). The
|
|
skipped-cycle count surfaces in the per-target `last_result` for
|
|
audit.
|
|
|
|
### `edit_schedule(id, body?, description?, interval_seconds?, next_fire_at_unix?, targets_add?, targets_remove?)`
|
|
|
|
Partial-update a schedule. Pass only the fields to change; absent
|
|
fields are left alone. `targets_add` / `targets_remove` mutate the
|
|
recipient list in the same transaction — re-adding a previously
|
|
cancelled target drops its tombstone and starts fresh.
|
|
`interval_seconds` accepts positive values only via this tool (omit
|
|
to keep the existing cadence; pass a new positive value to change
|
|
it). Toggling recurring → one-shot (clearing the interval) is
|
|
operator-only via the dashboard PATCH endpoint. Refuses cancelled
|
|
rows (terminal state).
|
|
|
|
### `cancel_schedule(id, targets?)`
|
|
|
|
Cancel a schedule. Omit `targets` / pass empty to cancel the whole
|
|
schedule; pass a list to cancel just those recipients (the schedule
|
|
auto-cancels when every target is removed).
|
|
|
|
### `fire_schedule_now(id)`
|
|
|
|
Fire a scheduled prompt out of band immediately. Recurring schedules
|
|
keep their cadence — the manual fire is additive. One-shot schedules
|
|
are consumed by the manual fire and cancelled afterwards.
|
|
|
|
### `list_schedules()`
|
|
|
|
Snapshot every schedule (active + cancelled-but-not-reaped): id,
|
|
owner, body, per-target `last_fired_at` + `last_result`,
|
|
`next_fire_at_unix`, `interval_seconds`. Use to look up an id before
|
|
cancelling, or to audit upcoming wake-ups across the swarm.
|
|
|
|
## `diagnostics` tool group
|
|
|
|
### `get_logs(agent, lines?)`
|
|
|
|
Fetch recent journal lines for a sub-agent container. Useful for
|
|
diagnosing MCP-registration failures, startup crashes, plugin install
|
|
errors, or any harness issue you can't see from inside the container.
|
|
|
|
Pass the plain logical agent name (for example `"gui"`) — hive-c0re resolves
|
|
the machine name (`h-<name>`). `lines` defaults to 50, host-capped at 500.
|
|
|
|
## `read_host_journal` capability
|
|
|
|
Capability-gated (not a tool group) — the operator enables it in the
|
|
P3RM1SS10NS C4P4B1L1T13S section. Unlike tool groups this isn't
|
|
configurable from `agent.nix`.
|
|
|
|
### `get_host_journal(unit?, container?, lines?, priority?, grep?, since?, until?)`
|
|
|
|
Fetch recent lines from the **host** journal (requires
|
|
`read_host_journal` capability). Useful when you need visibility
|
|
outside your own container — infrastructure services, hive-c0re
|
|
lifecycle events, or another container's boot log.
|
|
|
|
- `unit` — filter to a systemd unit (for example `hive-c0re.service`).
|
|
- `container` — nspawn machine name verbatim. Agent containers use
|
|
the `h-<name>` prefix (for example `h-iris`); infrastructure containers
|
|
use their full name (for example `hive-ci`, `hive-forge`, `hive-matrix`).
|
|
Omit for the host journal. The gateway has no machine — its nginx
|
|
runs on the host, so read it with `unit: nginx.service` and no
|
|
`container`.
|
|
- `lines` — how many lines to return (default 30, max 100).
|
|
- `priority` — minimum syslog level (`emerg` … `debug`).
|
|
- `grep` — regex matched against log message fields (`journalctl --grep`).
|
|
- `since` / `until` — time bounds (for example `-1h`, `2024-01-01 12:00:00`).
