Hub configuration resolves a normalized friendly slug to an immutable daemon ID. Document that model consistently so enrollment terminology matches hub.yml.

Daemons in Hub
A daemon is one of your machines running the Paseo daemon. Enroll it once with your Hub organization, then any project can reference it.
Connect
On the machine:
paseo hub connect https://hub.example.com
The CLI prints a URL and a verification code, and opens your browser if it can. In Hub, open Daemons → Register a daemon, enter the code, choose a friendly slug, and approve it.
Each daemon has two identifiers: an immutable generated ID and a friendly slug. Hub normalizes the slug you enter with lowercase words joined by hyphens, so Build Studio becomes build-studio. The slug is what the dashboard shows and what configuration references.
You can rename the slug later without changing the daemon ID. Renaming after a configuration is active means updating that configuration.
For unattended setup, skip the browser with an enrollment token:
paseo hub connect https://hub.example.com --token <token>
Check and undo:
paseo hub status
paseo hub disconnect
paseo hub disconnect --force # drop local authority when Hub is unreachable
One daemon has one Hub relationship. Connecting a daemon that already has one is refused.
Reference it from configuration
environments:
- name: dev
kind: daemon
daemon: my-macbook
cwd: /Users/you/code/your-repo
daemon is the friendly slug. It resolves to the immutable daemon ID when the configuration activates, so a daemon that no longer exists fails activation instead of failing at dispatch.
cwd is a path on that machine. Hub does not clone anything for you; the directory must already exist.
To keep executions off your working tree, add a worktree:
worktree:
mode: branch-off
newBranch: hub/investigation
base: main
See Git worktrees for setup hooks and scripts.
What Hub owns
For agents it dispatched, Hub owns creation, reconnect recovery, output observation, and completion. Agents you start yourself are untouched.
If Hub loses the create response, or the daemon restarts mid-execution, Hub resends the same create intent with the same execution id. The daemon returns the existing agent rather than running the prompt again. An agent that closed or errored is recorded as interrupted; Hub never silently starts a second one.
Status
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Approval required | The CLI is waiting for you to approve the code |
| Connected | Online and accepting dispatch |
| Offline | Enrolled but not currently connected |
| Revoked | Access removed from Hub |
An event that arrives while a daemon is offline fails dispatch with daemon_not_connected. Nothing is queued for later. The event is in the project's Activity, and the trigger has to fire again.
Revoking from Daemons → Revoke daemon ends the relationship from Hub's side. The daemon keeps running your local agents.
