iris 97e2a993e3 docs: fix genuine passive-voice hits in docs/tools (hand-written files)
Read all 62 write-good.Passive hits across the 6 hand-written files in
docs/tools/ (bash.md, lifecycle.md, forge.md, hivectl.md, matrix.md,
scheduling.md) in context. Excludes forge-cli.md/hivectl-cli.md/
swarmctl-cli.md (57 more hits) -- those are CI-generated from the
clap doc-comment strings in hive-forge/hivectl/swarmctl, freshness-
checked against the committed markdown, so a fix there has to go in
the Rust source and get regenerated -- separate batch.

33 rewritten to active, actor usually already established in the same
paragraph or given via a 'by X' clause (the daemon, hive-c0re,
hive-forge, hivectl, hyperhive itself, or an established module name
like nix/agent-modules/mcp.nix). Several sibling-inconsistency fixes:
a passive clause next to an already-active sibling stating the same
fact (lifecycle.md's server-scoping sentence, forge.md's clone-derives
sentence, hivectl.md's daemon-hashes-passwords sentence, matrix.md's
daemon-upserts-a-todo paragraph).

29 left alone: no-X-is-Y / no-X-is-needed invariant idioms, config-state
conditionals (whenever/when X is set/configured/given), requirement-
list idiom, a false-positive tokenization (vale matching 'are read'
inside 'read-only'), definitional facts about CLI/attrset structure
with no real actor, hypothetical/counterfactual clauses describing a
rejected design alternative, a forward-looking not-yet-real removal,
compressed bullet-fragment conventions, and one deliberately-parallel
sentence structure left both halves alone to avoid breaking the
symmetry.

Verified via vale on the 6 touched files, diffed against main's exact
baseline (not just the Passive count): write-good.Passive 62 -> 29
exactly, every other category unchanged in count AND location
(TooWordy 16, Microsoft.We 1, Microsoft.FirstPerson 1, and the same
4 pre-existing Microsoft.Contractions errors at the same 4 lines).

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 autogenerated 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?getting-started/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, terminal-rendering) 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).

Agent lifecycle

Trust boundary & security

Accounts & integrations

  • How do per-agent forge accounts work? What does forge_notify poll, and how does it format wake messages?integrations/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?integrations/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's the PAT injected?integrations/github.md (operator content up top; the gh/git-push + notification-poller mechanics are in a collapsed "Implementation" section at the bottom).
  • What's /knowledge? How does the hive-wide knowledge repo sync, and how do I contribute a document?integrations/knowledge.md.
  • What does hivectl do? Provisioning, gateway users, container shells?tools/hivectl.md (the curated guide); tools/hivectl-cli.md for the exhaustive, autogenerated flag reference.

Networking & swarms

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

Scheduler, CI, observability

  • what's the job queue, as a general idea (not hive-c0re specifics)?scheduler/jobq.md — operator-facing, no implementation detail.
  • How does the rebuild queue work? What are the concrete step kinds, queue sources, scheduler internals?scheduler/coordinator.md.
  • How does the CI runner work? What's the autoregistration flow?scheduler/ci.md.
  • How do I export Claude Code metrics (tokens, cost, tool calls) to Prometheus/Grafana?scheduler/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.
