atlas 78637ded0c refactor(#4006): one wanted-state bucket per hive, so a watch can be scoped
A hive reads its own declaration today and that scopes cleanly: DIRECT.GET
carries the key in the subject, so the grant can name it. A *watch* cannot be
scoped that way — a consumer's filter travels in the request payload, so
$JS.API.CONSUMER.CREATE.<stream> grants the whole stream. With every hive in
one bucket, letting a hive watch its own declaration would let it read every
other hive's.

One bucket per hive (hive-wanted-<hive>) makes the stream a hive may hold
exactly as wide as what it is allowed to see, which is what #4006's live-watch
needs. That watch is a separate change; this only moves the boundary.

mara's calls, both on #4006: one stream per hive rather than teaching the auth
responder a hive roster, and a wildcard for the controller — "its okay if
swarm controller can theoretically override hive". A bucket name is a single
subject token with no prefix matching, so no wildcard narrower than * covers N
per-hive buckets; the controller's grant is account-wide by consequence, and
documented as chosen rather than left to look accidental.

The reader arm of #4005's key-layout guard asserted the opposite of that
ruling, so it is replaced rather than deleted: the hive arm survives as
no_hive_may_write_another_role_s_agent_status (with a positive control), and
the_readers_grant_is_deliberately_account_wide pins the decision and names the
ruling, so the width reads as chosen to whoever finds it next.

Two pre-existing negative assertions were silently defanged by the rename --
they matched hive-wanted.beta and $KV.hive-wanted.alpha, strings nothing
produces any more, and kept passing. Both now match current names.

swarm-controller resolves the store per hive per call instead of caching one in
a OnceCell: there is no single handle that serves N buckets, and declarations
change on operator action rather than per tick.

hive-c0re

The unprivileged host daemon (runs as hive-core). Owns the sqlite broker, the approval/reminder/schedule queues, the generic job-DAG queue, container lifecycle, gateway/forge/matrix provisioning, per-container stats, and the axum operator dashboard. Largest crate in the workspace — bin-only, no separate lib.

When to use it

Host-level, cross-container orchestration: spawning/rebuilding/ destroying agent containers, the approval flow, dashboard-visible state, provisioning per-agent forge/matrix/gateway accounts. Agent-side behavior (turn loop, MCP tools) lives in hive-agent/hive-agent-mcp instead — this daemon only talks to agents over the socket wire types in hive-sh4re.

Shape

Cohesive clusters live in directory submodules, each re-exported at the crate root (crate::broker::… keeps resolving regardless of which subdirectory a module actually lives in). One line each — read the module's own //! doc-comment for real detail, don't expect this file to track it:

  • dashboard/ — the operator dashboard (containers, approvals, schedules, logs, topology).
  • job_queue/ — the job-DAG queue + desired-state reconciliation (docs/scheduler/coordinator.md).
  • lifecycle/nixos-container lifecycle + per-agent config flake generation.
  • stores/ — sqlite-backed stores (broker, queues, audit, power).
  • workers/ — background sweeps (crash watch, scheduled prompts, auto-update, knowledge sync).
  • agent_config/ — per-agent registries (tool groups, capabilities, resource limits, topology).
  • stats/ — dashboard metrics aggregation + OTEL export.
  • socket_server/ — the unix-socket request server shared by per-agent + manager sockets.
  • forge/ — optional Forgejo wiring (docs/integrations/forge.md).
  • coordinator.rs — top-level wiring for serve.
  • meta.rs, migrate.rs — the meta flake + schema/state migrations.
  • matrix.rs, gateway_nginx.rs, webhook_secret.rs, priv_client.rs — matrix provisioning, gateway vhosts, webhook secrets, and the hive-priv client respectively.
