atlas 56202065d5 refactor(#2815): the scheduler publishes pill edges, it doesn't own pills
mara on !2910: "transient guard as well - should be removable now?" — for
the queue path, yes.

`set_transient`'s own doc explained why the RAII guard existed: a
cancelled future must not leak an imperatively-set transient and pin the
dashboard on "rebuilding…" forever. That cannot happen to a derived set.
`running_transients()` is recomputed from the graph every loop, so a node
that stops running stops appearing — there is nothing to own and nothing
to leak.

So the scheduler no longer holds a guard per pill. It keeps the previous
derived value and publishes the transitions, which is the one thing a
derived read cannot express: the dashboard wants `TransientSet` /
`TransientCleared` edges, and the crash watcher wants the *moment* a pill
cleared, since its grace window is what stops an operator stop from
reading as a crash.

That also retires a hazard rather than restating it. The old code carried
a warning that stale guards had to be dropped before new ones were
created, because `TransientGuard::drop` clears by agent with no notion of
which label it was clearing — so a same-agent label change could clear
the pill it had just set. With no guards there is no ordering to get
wrong; clears are emitted before sets so a relabel reads as
clear-then-set rather than two overlapping pills.

`set_transient` / `clear_transient` become `pub(crate)`. The guard stays
for destroy and migration, which have no node behind them and where the
cancellation concern is real.

Checked with clippy (`--all-targets -D warnings`), `cargo test -p
hive-c0re -p hive-jobq` (322 + 41 passed) and `nix fmt`.

hive-c0re

The unprivileged host daemon (runs as hive-core). Owns the sqlite broker, the approval/question/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, questions, logs, topology).
  • job_queue/ — the job-DAG queue + desired-state reconciliation (docs/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/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.
