hyperhive/hive-forge

hive-forge

Typed CLI wrapper around the in-cluster Forgejo's REST API — issues, PRs, comments, labels, reviews, CI status, attachments, triage. Replaces the old bash-script wrapper so agents and operators get consistent error handling, exit codes, and JSON shapes. This is the only supported path to the forge from inside an agent container; never curl it directly.

Reads credentials from the environment (HIVE_FORGE_URL, HYPERHIVE_STATE_DIR); -f/--forge <label> retargets a dashboard-provisioned external forge account instead. The active repo resolves -r/--repo > the origin remote of the cwd's git checkout > HIVE_FORGE_REPO (last-resort override, unset by default) > a hard error — see client::Client::from_env.

When to use it

Reach for this crate when adding or changing a forge verb — it's the single place issue/PR/comment/CI logic lives for every agent and hivectl. Adding a tool an agent's claude session calls is hive-agent-mcp wrapping a shellout to this binary, not new logic here.

Shape

• verbs/ — one module per subcommand (clap Args + run).
• client.rs — the Forgejo client wrapper + token loading.
• notify.rs — the read-before-comment guard, backed by forge's own notification read-state (no local mirror to drift).
• body.rs — shared --body/--body-file/stdin resolution.
