AI Summary: A security vulnerability exists in `backup_api.go` where a missing `X-Hive-Role` header defaults to 'owner', allowing unauthenticated users direct network access to download backups. This bypasses normal authentication checks, especially when the `authToken` is empty on spokes.

AI agent orchestration for open and closed source — a fully customizable fleet of AI agents covering every level of project maintenance, from brainstorming to full autonomy

Go

AI Summary: The `/api/auth/token` endpoint is publicly accessible on hub-proxied spokes, allowing unauthenticated callers to obtain the `HIVE_DASHBOARD_TOKEN`. This token can then be used to bypass authentication for all protected API endpoints, effectively compromising the system's security.

AI Summary: This issue proposes adding a new feature to the publishing pipeline that allows developers to package and publish only the standalone asset skills subset. Currently, the publishing script only supports the full skill set, forcing users who don't need the entire framework to install unnecessary components. The solution involves extending the existing publish script with a subset option and updating documentation to reflect this new standalone usage.

AI Summary: This issue proposes extending the verification of standalone asset skills to the Trae platform. Currently, these skills are only tested against other AI models, leaving Trae users unable to benefit from them. The solution involves researching Trae's skill discovery mechanism, adapting the publishing and runtime layers, and conducting end-to-end tests to ensure generated assets import correctly into Godot.

AI Summary: This issue proposes to extend the functionality of standalone asset skills on WorkBuddy, currently only supported by other AI models. The goal is to enable WorkBuddy users to benefit from these AI-native supplement skills by adapting and testing them end-to-end on the WorkBuddy platform. This involves researching WorkBuddy's skill discovery, modifying the publish/runtime layers, and verifying the generated assets in Godot.

AI Summary: This issue highlights a documentation gap for running a Kubernetes contributor relay. While the functionality was added and is visible on the `/contribute` dashboard, it's not documented in any static files like READMEs or markdown docs. This makes it difficult for new contributors or those evaluating the project to discover and implement this feature.

AI Summary: The documentation for available agent backends is incomplete, specifically missing information for 'pi', 'codex', and 'aider'. Operators cannot set up these backends because there are no descriptions, setup instructions, or prerequisite details provided.

AI Summary: This issue proposes the implementation of a new enemy called 'Pylom' which has distinct behaviors based on player proximity and its 'log' resource. The Pylom will shoot projectiles from its mouth, with the number of projectiles tied to its log length, and can be stunned by the player stomping on its log. It also regenerates its log when idle or out of player range.

AI Summary: The `openai-compatible` provider does not enforce the `maxOutputTokens` limit like the `anthropic-direct` provider does. Instead of clamping an over-ceiling value to the model's limit with a warning, `openai-compatible` passes the value directly, leading to provider-side rejections. This inconsistency impacts users, especially those running local models with smaller token limits.
