An ACP agent's session is now compacted like a claude one: proactively once a turn crosses the percent-of-window watermark, and on the operator's /compact or the agent's compact tool. Before, the ACP backend's compact returned Unsupported and no watermark applied to it. - AcpRuntime takes the same CompactionPolicy as ClaudeRuntime; make_session builds one PercentPolicy (with CHECKPOINT_PROMPT) and hands it to whichever backend runs. - The runtime keeps the commands each session advertises in available_commands_update. If `compact` is among them, compaction sends the prompt `/compact` on the same session, which is how the ACP spec runs an advertised command. A proactive compaction runs the checkpoint turn first, as InfiniteSession does. - With no compact command, the checkpoint turn runs, the session is archived, and the next turn starts a new one with the system prompt. - Error::Unsupported had no producer left, so it and drive_turn's "/compact skipped" arm are gone.

# hive-runtime
|
|
|
|
The layer an agent's turns are driven through: one `Runtime` interface
|
|
(`run`, `compact`, `archive`, `canceller`) with a backend per runtime.
|
|
|
|
- **claude** — `claude --print` through the `hive-claude` crate's
|
|
`InfiniteSession`. A pass-through: same spawn, same session handling, same
|
|
errors.
|
|
- **acp** — any [Agent Client Protocol](https://agentclientprotocol.com)
|
|
agent, spawned from a command, args and env handed to it (`RuntimeSpec`,
|
|
read from `HIVE_RUNTIME` / `HIVE_ACP_COMMAND` / `HIVE_ACP_ARGS` /
|
|
`HIVE_ACP_ENV`). It knows no agent by name; which agent runs, and how it is
|
|
configured, is decided in nix (`services.hyperhive.agent.runtime`,
|
|
`services.hyperhive.agent.acp.*`).
|
|
|
|
Both backends report a turn through `hive_claude::Sink` in claude's
|
|
`stream-json` shape. The ACP backend translates `session/update`
|
|
notifications into it (text and thought chunks as whole blocks, tool calls as
|
|
`tool_use` + `tool_result`, MCP tools named `mcp__<server>__<tool>`), so the
|
|
harness's stream consumers read either backend unchanged. Context usage comes
|
|
from ACP `usage_update`.
|
|
|
|
The crate depends on no hyperhive binary crate, so `hive-agent` and
|
|
`hive-subagent-mcp` can both drive turns through it.
|
|
|
|
## ACP backend: what it needs from the agent
|
|
|
|
- `mcpCapabilities.http` in its `initialize` response. The hyperhive tools
|
|
are only served over HTTP, so an agent without it is refused at startup.
|
|
- `loadSession`, to pick its session back up after a harness restart.
|
|
Without it every restart starts a new session.
|
|
|
|
## ACP backend: stopping a turn
|
|
|
|
A turn is stopped with `session/cancel`: by the `Canceller` handle, or by the
|
|
idle watchdog once no `session/update` has arrived for
|
|
`Config::idle_timeout`. An agent that has not answered the prompt 10s later
|
|
is killed, and the next turn respawns it. A watchdog stop fails the turn
|
|
with `AcpError::IdleTimeout` (`IdleKilled` if the agent was killed). This is
|
|
the only way a provider error the agent retries without reporting it, such as
|
|
an HTTP 429, ends the turn.
|
|
|
|
## ACP backend: compaction
|
|
|
|
The same `CompactionPolicy` as the claude backend decides when: after a turn
|
|
past the watermark, or on `compact` (the operator's `/compact`, the agent's
|
|
`compact` tool).
|
|
|
|
- If the agent advertises a `compact` command (`available_commands_update`),
|
|
it is sent as the prompt `/compact` on the same session, as the ACP spec
|
|
runs any advertised command. A proactive compaction runs the policy's
|
|
checkpoint turn first, as on claude.
|
|
- Otherwise the policy's checkpoint turn runs, then the session is archived,
|
|
and the next turn starts a new one, carrying the system prompt again.
