atlas 834ea88420 docs(#3162): point the serverName pin section at the new rebuild warning
argus's optional note. Nothing in the doc was inaccurate, but an operator
who sees the activation-time warning has no thread back to the page that
explains why pinning matters -- and this section is the explanation.

States the one property they need from it: it never fails the rebuild, so
acting on it is theirs to do before the ids are minted.

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 auto-generated 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 hive online?setup.md (first-run hivectl bootstrap).
  • 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) 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, scheduling).

Dashboard & agent UI internals

Turn loop, config, approvals

  • How does claude get its prompt, and what tools does it have?turn-loop/ — the loop, binary shape, turn outcomes; sub-pages: claude-invocation, config, mcp.
  • How do config changes flow from manager to operator to container?approvals.md (two-step spawn, approval state machine, flake.lock validation).
  • What state survives destroy / purge / restart?persistence.md.

Trust boundary & security

  • What's the operator/agent trust boundary? What's a capability?boundary.md.
  • Agent trust model, prompt-injection threat model, credential isolation?security.md.
  • Who can do what to whom — agent hierarchy and privilege?agent-hierarchy.md.

Accounts & integrations

  • How do per-agent forge accounts work? What does forge_notify poll, and how does it format wake messages?forge.md (the hive's own Forgejo); tools/forge.md for the hive-forge CLI verbs agents actually call.
  • How does the matrix-tuwunel container work? Multiple accounts per agent?matrix.md (the homeserver); tools/matrix.md for the MCP tool surface and hyperhive.matrixAccounts.
  • How do I give an agent a GitHub account (gh + git push)? How is the PAT injected?github.md.
  • What does hivectl do? Provisioning, gateway users, container shells?tools/hivectl.md (the curated guide); tools/hivectl-cli.md for the exhaustive, auto-generated flag reference.

Networking & swarms

  • What nginx vhosts does the gateway serve? How does matrix discovery work?gateway.md.
  • How does DNS resolution work in agent containers? What's the bridge network for?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?snapshot-store.md.

Scheduler, CI, observability

  • How does the rebuild queue work? What are queue kinds and sources?coordinator.md.
  • How does the CI runner work? What's the auto-registration flow?ci.md.
  • How do I export Claude Code metrics (tokens, cost, tool calls) to Prometheus/Grafana?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 (hyperhive#3051); the crate itself is still the source of truth, this is just a walkable mirror.

Process & conventions

  • Naming, commit style, wire protocol, the data-async pattern?conventions.md.
  • Why does the nspawn flag look like that?gotchas.md (bind mounts, conf flags, other NixOS/nspawn quirks).
  • What is /knowledge? How does the hive-wide knowledge repo sync, and how do I contribute a document?knowledge.md.
