atlas 0dd807062c hive-c0re: deliver a matrix credential through hive-priv, not by writing it
`deliver` read the value out of the secret store and wrote it itself, as the
`hive-core` user, at 0600. The file lands in a directory owned by the agent,
so it arrived owned by `hive-core` — the agent's matrix daemon woke on it
appearing and could not read its own credential. `priv_client::write_agent_
matrix_token` already existed and already had two callers; this was the one
path that did not use it.

hive-priv now owns the filename too, so the name the daemon's path unit globs
for is decided in one place instead of being built identically in two.

That move exposed a disagreement worth fixing rather than routing around.
The secret store accepts `[A-Za-z0-9_-]` for an account name; hive-priv's
`validate_name_chars` accepts lowercase, digits and hyphen only. An account is
an attribute name in `hyperhive.matrixAccounts`, typed `attrsOf` with no
charset constraint, so `Ops_Relay9` is a key an operator can already have
written — and it would have read out of the store and then failed to land.

So hive-priv grows `validate_account_name` rather than widening the existing
one: an agent name is an `Ident` and lowercase by design, an account name is an
attrset key, and one validator serving two name domains is what let them drift.

The test that caught this came from `credential.rs`, which used to build the
path. It moves to hive-priv with both of its controls intact, because the
controls are the point — they assert which names must be ACCEPTED, and a
validator narrower than the store's passes every rejection case. A second
moved test pins the `matrix-token` prefix where the name is now built; the
old one would have kept passing while asserting a function that no longer
decided anything.

hive-c0re

The unprivileged host daemon (runs as hive-core). Owns the sqlite broker, the approval/reminder/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, 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, 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/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, webhook_secret.rs, priv_client.rs — matrix provisioning, gateway vhosts, webhook secrets, and the hive-priv client respectively.
