hive-subagent-daemon and hive-bash-daemon are now delegated their cgroup (Delegate=memory pids, DelegateSubgroup=daemon). At start each daemon enables memory+pids below its unit and creates runs/ (subagent) or tasks/ (bash). Each subagent run gets runs/<name>-<n>/ and each bash task tasks/<id>/, both with memory.oom.group=1, and the daemon removes the directory when the run ends. An OOM kill now takes one whole run instead of one process out of the daemon's shared cgroup, and never the daemon itself. Subagent runs get oom_score_adj +1000; bash tasks and both daemons stay at 0; the harness stays at -500. The unit-level OOMScoreAdjust=500 on the subagent daemon goes: it was both the daemon's own score and a floor no run below it could be lowered past. Bash tasks enter their cgroup from the existing pre_exec hook, writing to a cgroup.procs fd opened by the parent. hive-claude builds its Command itself and exposes neither a pre_exec hook nor the child's pid, so a subagent's claude (and an ACP agent's process) is started as the daemon's own binary with the run's cgroup in its environment; main() enters the cgroup, raises oom_score_adj and execs the real program, the trampoline swarm-review-classifier already uses. Both enter before the program executes, so nothing it forks starts outside the run's cgroup. Without a delegated `daemon` leaf (tests, a dev shell) each daemon logs one warning and runs everything in its own cgroup, as before. The shared helper is hive-agent-sock's run_cgroup module, the crate both daemons already use for what in-container plugins share. Closes #5007 |

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 swarm online? →
getting-started/setup.md(the hand steps after the first switch). - 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).
Agent lifecycle
- How do config changes flow from manager to operator to container? →
agent-lifecycle/config-changes.md(config PRs, the meta flake, helper events). - What state survives destroy / purge / restart? →
agent-lifecycle/persistence.md. - Who can do what to whom — the agent roster and privilege? →
agent-lifecycle/agent-roster.md. - 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.
Trust boundary & security
- What's the operator/agent trust boundary? What's a capability? →
trust-boundary/boundary.md. - Agent trust model, prompt-injection threat model, credential
isolation? →
trust-boundary/security.md.
Accounts & integrations
- How do per-agent forge accounts work? What does
forge_notifypoll, and how does it format wake messages? →integrations/forge.md(the swarm's Forgejo);tools/forge.mdfor thehive-forgeCLI verbs agents actually call. - How does the matrix-tuwunel container work? Multiple accounts per
agent? →
integrations/matrix.md(the homeserver);tools/matrix.mdfor the MCP tool surface andservices.hyperhive.agent.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; thegh/git-push + notification-poller mechanics are in a collapsed "Implementation" section at the bottom). - What's
/knowledge? How does the swarm-wide knowledge repo sync, and how do I contribute a document? →integrations/knowledge.md. - What does
hivectldo? Provisioning, gateway users, container shells? →tools/hivectl.md(the curated guide);tools/hivectl-cli.mdfor 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 receiveendpoint authenticate a pushing hive? →networking/snapshot-store.md. - Who mints each credential, who reads it, and how does it rotate — and
where's that shape headed? →
swarm/credentials.md(current state, target state, and the progressive-enhancement rule);swarm/secrets.mdfor where each file lives today. - How does the secret store come up, who writes its grants, how's it
sealed? →
swarm/bao.md. - How does an agent get a prompt at set times, and why doesn't it fire
twice after downtime? →
swarm/schedules.md. - How do I set an agent's model or effort from the swarm, and what happens
to its own pick? →
swarm/inference.md. - How will a PR get checked against its repo's own yes/no rules before
a full review? →
swarm/review-classifier.md(planned, not implemented yet).
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? How does it register? →
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 ownREADME.md, one level up from source; the crate itself is still the source of truth, this is just a walkable mirror.
Process & conventions
- Naming, commit style, wire protocol, the
data-asyncpattern? →process/conventions.md. - Why does the nspawn flag look like that? →
process/gotchas.md(bind mounts, conf flags, other NixOS/nspawn quirks). - What does a PR review verdict actually gate? →
process/pr-review-gate.md.
