atlas bf54436937 docs/setup: the granting unit runs on the host now
The bootstrap block still described a one-shot unit "inside the store's
container". That stopped being true when the unit moved, and a merged
change that leaves the docs asserting the old topology is worse than one
that never moved it.

Also retires the "only run once, didn't go all the way through" note. It
has run twice against a live store now and failed both times — but for
its own reasons, not the grants': it could not reach the store from where
it ran, so neither attempt exercised a single one of them. The grants are
still derived from `-output-policy` rather than proven, and the warning
now says that directly instead of implying a partial test.

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; the crate itself is still the source of truth, this is just a walkable mirror.
