iris b9df538940 frontend/dashboard: heartbeat + watchdog so a dead SharedWorker self-heals (#515)
Firefox kills "idle" SharedWorkers under memory pressure with no native
signal to the client. The page's port silently becomes a no-op and
events stop flowing — observable symptom: mara's "dashboard never
refreshes; F5 fixes it" (because F5 creates a fresh page that creates
a fresh worker).

The worker now pings every connected port every 30s. The client tracks
last-activity-from-worker on every message arrival (incl. pings, since
those carry no URL — bumped before the URL filter in the route handler).
A visibility-gated watchdog polls every 15s; if the page is visible AND
has active subs AND hasn't heard from the worker in >90s, it presumes
the worker dead, logs a console warning, and re-subscribes on a fresh
port. Three pings missed before we act, so a normal tab-throttle blip
doesn't false-positive.

The fresh-port re-subscribe re-uses the bfcache-restore code path
(same shape: drop stale listeners, getSharedPort → new SharedWorker,
re-attach each route + repost subscribe). Recovery is per-tab — when
one tab's watchdog fires and brings up a new worker, other tabs that
share the named worker pick it up on their own watchdog cycle.

Falls back gracefully on environments without SharedWorker (the
existing direct-EventSource path is untouched) and is invisible on the
healthy path — pings are 30s apart, no UI surface.

hyperhive frontend

npm workspaces project for the hyperhive browser-facing assets:

  • packages/shared/ — shared modules used by both surfaces (terminal pane, Catppuccin palette + body typography).
  • packages/dashboard/ — the hive-c0re dashboard SPA.
  • packages/agent/ — the per-container web UI (default agent page, stats, screen).

Build

npm install            # one-off; uses the checked-in package-lock.json
npm run build          # builds every workspace into packages/*/dist/

The Rust binaries serve packages/dashboard/dist/ and packages/agent/dist/ via tower_http::ServeDir at runtime; the build derivation is wired up in nix/modules/frontend.nix. Per-agent additions are layered on top of the default agent dist via the hyperhive.frontend.extraFiles option in agent.nix.

Why npm + esbuild

  • Hermetic: dependencies vendored via the checked-in lockfile; buildNpmPackage in nix uses it as the source-of-truth so the output is reproducible without network access at build time.
  • esbuild: vanilla-JS bundler, no framework runtime overhead. Each workspace's build.mjs is ~30 lines.
  • Single-PR migration: see issue #273 for the design proposal and the four-commit shape (npm scaffold → nix derivations → container plumbing → Rust cutover).
