atlas 89013b5408 agent permissions: hold hive-c0re's stored grant until the agent's own read
Until its first successful read of its key, the harness read its
permissions as the default set, `execution` included. So did the
subagent daemon. An agent the operator had narrowed ran wider than
granted after every restart while the queue was unreachable, and in the
gap before the first 10 s poll. During the meta-repo import, every
non-ruth key is still unset, and the agent read that as the default too,
for as long as the import stayed pending.

mara picked option (a) on #5293: "a, removal of the old path as a follow
up in 1w".

hive-c0re now writes each agent's entry from
swarm-agent-permissions.json into the agent's runtime dir as
swarm-permissions.json (/run/hive in the container), together with
whether the import is still pending. It writes the file at every start
(write_dropins) and after every 30 s pass of the permissions worker. The
harness and the subagent daemon hold that stored list until their own
first read succeeds. While the import is pending, an unset key keeps
the stored list rather than reverting it to the default. A queue that
is down never blocks a start: the agent runs on the stored grant.

The decision lives in swarm_queue_client::agent_permissions::HiveCopy,
shared by both readers.

Part of #5170.

hive-c0re

The unprivileged host daemon (runs as hive-core). Owns the sqlite broker, the reminder queue, the generic job-DAG queue, container lifecycle, gateway vhost wiring, forge/matrix config reconciliation, 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, dashboard-visible state, wiring each agent's gateway vhost and reconciling its forge config-repo access and matrix room membership. The accounts themselves are swarm-controller's (docs/integrations/forge.md). 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, schedules, logs, topology).
  • job_queue/ — the job-DAG queue + desired-state reconciliation (docs/scheduler/coordinator.md).
  • lifecycle/ — nixos-container lifecycle + per-agent config flake generation.
  • stores/ — sqlite-backed stores (broker, queues, audit, power).
  • workers/ — background sweeps (crash watch, autoupdate, knowledge sync).
  • agent_config/ — per-agent registries (permissions, 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/integrations/forge.md).
  • coordinator.rs — top-level wiring for serve.
  • meta.rs, migrate.rs — the meta flake + schema/state migrations.
  • matrix.rs, gateway_nginx.rs, priv_client.rs — matrix provisioning, gateway vhosts, and the hive-priv client respectively.
