atlas ccc6993703 hive-forge: exit after HIVE_FORGE_DEADLINE instead of hanging on a stalled forge
forgejo-api 0.11.1's sync client builds its own reqwest client with no
timeout and takes no caller-supplied client (sync.rs: new and
with_user_agent are the only constructors), so a forge that accepts a
connection and then stalls blocked every typed verb forever.

A watchdog thread now starts before the client is built. After
HIVE_FORGE_DEADLINE seconds (default 900, five minutes above
DOWNLOAD_TIMEOUT) it prints a hive-forge: FAILED: line and exits 75.
It bounds the whole command, not each request, and a write may already
have landed when it fires; the help text and docs/tools/forge.md say so.

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 swarm-UI-linked 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. HIVE_FORGE_DEADLINE (seconds, default 900) caps one invocation; past it the binary exits 75 (see src/deadline.rs).

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.
