iris 77296aff35 docs: retire the stray top-level web-ui.md, fold it into web-ui/README.md
docs/web-ui.md duplicated the web-ui/ directory name at the top level --
the only such collision in docs/ (every other subsystem has just a
directory, no sibling <dir>.md file). That's exactly why it rendered
outside the directory structure in the docs site nav (mara's report,
hyperhive#4054): the site build walks docs/ generically with no
special-casing, so a loose top-level file next to a same-named
directory shows up as its own flat top-level entry instead of nesting
under that directory's section.

web-ui.md's own first paragraph already said as much -- 'This doc has
been split for readability... start at web-ui/README.md instead.' It
was a leftover pointer from before the split, not a page carrying
unique content on its own merit.

Folded its two sections web-ui/README.md didn't already have (the
swarm-ui design-guide link, and the task-oriented 'reading paths'
quick-lookup list) into web-ui/README.md's existing 'More depth'
section, then deleted the stray file and repointed every real
reference at it: 3 in-tree doc cross-links, 3 doc prose mentions
(retargeted to the more specific dashboard.md/shape.md sub-page each
one was actually about), and ~28 frontend source comments
(dashboard/agent/shared packages) that cited it as
'docs/web-ui.md::<heading>' for implementation context -- retargeted
each to whichever of dashboard.md/shape.md/agent.md actually carries
that heading now, verified against each file's real heading list
rather than guessed.

Verified via scripts/check-doc-refs.sh (the same lint CI runs): 0 dead
pointers, both before write (confirming the tree was clean beforehand)
and after (confirming nothing broke).

hyperhive frontend

npm workspaces project for the hyperhive browser-facing assets:

  • packages/shared/ — shared modules used by both surfaces (terminal pane, Catppuccin palette + body typography).
  • packages/dashboard/ — the hive-c0re dashboard SPA.
  • packages/agent/ — the per-container web UI (default agent page, stats, screen).

Build

npm install            # one-off; uses the checked-in package-lock.json
npm run build          # builds every workspace into packages/*/dist/

The Rust binaries serve packages/dashboard/dist/ and packages/agent/dist/ via tower_http::ServeDir at runtime; the build derivation is wired up in nix/packages/frontend.nix. Per-agent additions are layered on top of the default agent dist via the hyperhive.frontend.extraFiles option in agent.nix.

Why npm + esbuild

  • Hermetic: dependencies vendored via the checked-in lockfile; buildNpmPackage in nix uses it as the source-of-truth so the output is reproducible without network access at build time.
  • esbuild: vanilla-JS bundler, no framework runtime overhead. Each workspace's build.mjs is ~30 lines.
  • Single-PR migration: see issue #273 for the design proposal and the four-commit shape (npm scaffold → nix derivations → container plumbing → Rust cutover).
