hive
One address for your whole apiary. The stack runs several services on your machine, each on its own port, and none of that should be your problem. hive is the front door, one always-on portal at 127.0.0.1:3853.
one url, the whole picture
hive serves the entire dashboard for everything behind it: your memories, projects, the graphs, sync activity, logs, ROI, and settings, with a live health rail on every page. It became its own service for one reason, the old dashboard lived inside the memory daemon and went dark exactly when you needed a status view most.
what it does
the whole picture, one url
Bookmark 127.0.0.1:3853 and you are done. No port hunting, no juggling tabs across loopback ports.
honest on a cold boot
Open it mid-startup and you get the buzzing readiness screen, one bee per service, that dismisses itself the moment the fleet is ready.
last thing standing
Its own service, booted at startup, restarted by doctor. If one service drops, its panel says so while the rest keeps working.
yours only
Binds to 127.0.0.1. Passes your session straight through to the services that own your data and stores nothing itself.

common questions
Why does the address start with 127.0.0.1?
That is your own machine. The portal binds locally only, nothing outside your device can reach it, and no account or cloud login is needed to view it.
A panel says unreachable. Is my data gone?
No. It means the service that owns that panel is not answering right now. doctor restarts crashed services, and the panel recovers on its own once the service is back.
The whole page went to the buzzing screen. Now what?
Wait a moment. The buzzing screen means the fleet is not fully healthy, and it dismisses itself the moment it is.
Does hive store my credentials?
No. hive passes your session through to the services that own your data and stores nothing itself.
