atlas 9a71d1e094 swarm-ui: per-agent cap on concurrently running subagents
Nothing capped how many subagents an agent runs at once; the operator
wants to set that per agent from swarm-ui (#5234, shape (b)).

AgentInference gains `max_subagents: Option<u32>`. An absent field
decodes as None, so every stored value still parses and means "no cap",
which is today's behaviour.

swarm-controller accepts 1..=32 on PUT. 0 would refuse every start; 32
is far more concurrent claude sessions than one agent container has
memory for, so anything above it is a typo, not a cap.

The subagent daemon already read the agent's agent-inference key for
subagent_models; it now reads it on every start and continue (not only
those naming a model) and refuses a new run once the cap's worth of
names is tracked, counted under the same lock as the name reservation.
Every tracked slot counts: running, starting, a goal run between turns,
and an interrupted one still exiting. A goal re-prompt never goes
through the reservation, so it is never refused. A failed read applies
no cap, as it falls back for models.

swarmctl's `inference set` does GET, merge, PUT; its mirror type now
carries the field so a set from the CLI keeps a cap set in swarm-ui
instead of dropping it, and `get` prints it.

hive-subagent-mcp

Per-agent daemon (hive-subagent-daemon) that spawns nested headless claude sessions on request and serves the tool surface (start/continue/status/interrupt, plus a separate subagent-facing goal_reached/need_help route, one per-session URL) directly over streamable-http. No stdio bridge, no per-turn respawn — an agent's claude reconnects to the same stable URL every turn.

Independent of hive-bash-mcp — a subagent spawns a full nested claude session, a much heavier capability than a bash command, worth its own deployable/restartable unit.

Shape

One bin (hive-subagent-daemon, src/main.rs) built from the crate's own lib (src/lib.rs):

  • session.rs — the actual claude-facing logic: Claude::spawn + RunningClaude::wait/cancel_handle (not InfiniteSession::run, which has no cancel handle to reach in — see the module doc for the v1 scope this trades away), the turn-continuation loop a goal switches on, and the in-memory maps that are the only state this daemon keeps (no task files — a restart stops whatever's running; the actual claude session is the durable store, found again by name via hive_claude::SessionStore).
  • mcp.rs — the rmcp tool routers (the parent's start/continue/status/interrupt on /mcp, the subagent's goal_reached/need_help on /signal/mcp/<token>) + serve_http. Neither signal tool takes a session name: the token in the path is minted per run and resolved to a session before dispatch, so a subagent has no way to name — and therefore no way to signal — a sibling. One route with a path parameter, because the Router is built once at startup and sessions come and go for the daemon's whole life.
  • paths.rs — the in-agent todo-socket path.
