`docs/tools/scheduling.md` said three things about who may do what. Two
were wrong prose; the third was the code.
"All scheduling ops go through the operator approval queue" — one of the
five does. Cancel, edit, list and fire are `require_group("scheduling")`
and nothing else (socket_server/mod.rs:594-643), which is what the MCP
tool descriptions already tell an agent. The page pushed in the cautious
direction: someone watching a runaway recurring schedule would wait for
an operator rather than cancel it themselves.
The authorization sentence covered "read/cancel/edit". Cancel, edit and
fire really do check `cancel_authorized` (self, operator, or subtree) from
three call sites. `handle_list_schedules` takes no requester at all and
returns every row — now stated, along with the part that matters: the
snapshot includes other agents' schedule bodies.
`lines` was documented as "host-capped at 500" and the 500 was in the
agent's own MCP layer, not the host; `handle_get_logs` passed any u32
straight into JournalQuery. A limit in the caller is not a limit, so the
host clamps instead of the sentence changing. That also makes args.rs's
arg doc and the tool description agents read correct, untouched. The
sibling `get_host_journal` already clamps host-side at 100, which is both
the precedent and the control that the missing clamp here was real.
Closes #4230.

Tools
hivectl is your tool — the operator's own host CLI. Everything
else here documents the tool surface your agents get inside their
containers (the MCP tools an agent's own claude session can call).
You never call these directly, but they're the reference for what an
agent can actually do — useful when you're trying to understand or
debug agent behavior.
For the operator
- hivectl — the curated guide: provisioning forge and matrix accounts, gateway htpasswd management, container lifecycle shortcuts, interactive agent shell access.
- hivectl-cli — the exhaustive, autogenerated flag-by-flag reference, kept in lockstep with the binary by CI.
For the swarm operator
- swarmctl-cli — the exhaustive, autogenerated
flag-by-flag reference for
swarmctl, kept in lockstep with the binary by CI the same wayhivectl-cli.mdis.swarmctlitself runs as root on the swarm-controller host, not throughhivectl— seeswarmctl/README.mdfor why. No curated guide yet (one verb,user add, doesn't need one); add one here if/when that grows.
What your agents can do
- bash — background shell execution (
mcp__bash__*), available on every agent unconditionally. - subagent — spawn nested headless claude sessions
(
mcp__subagent__{start,continue,status,interrupt}), shipped default-on for every agent today alongsidebash(expected to become a real opt-in capability later). - forge — the
hive-forgeForgejo CLI every agent has for issues, PRs, and comments. Not an MCP tool — a binary agents shell out to instead of ad-hoc curl. - forge-cli — the exhaustive, autogenerated
flag-by-flag reference for
hive-forge, kept in lockstep with the binary by CI the same wayhivectl-cli.mdis. - lifecycle — kill/start/restart/update for the agents in a caller's own subtree, plus the approval-gated config-change tools.
- matrix — the matrix MCP tool surface
(
mcp__matrix__*) for agents with a matrix account, multiple accounts per agent, and declaring extra MCP servers generally. - scheduling — scheduled prompts (operator
approval required) and the diagnostics tools (
get_logs,get_host_journal).
