A customer set `{"collect": false}` at the root of their source tree and
still saw Cursor connect to Hivemind in unrelated repos. `collect` only
gates writes: session start still authenticated, ran autoupdate, read
rules/goals/memory, pulled skills, fetched notifications and injected the
Hivemind context (7 API calls per Cursor sessionStart, reproduced). There
was no way to make Hivemind inactive except in opted-in directories.
- src/activation.ts: new gate. Global mode `always` (default, unchanged)
or `opt-in` via ~/.deeplake/config.json `activation.mode` or
HIVEMIND_ACTIVATION. New `.hivemind` field `enabled`: false → fully
inactive in that tree; true → opts the tree in under opt-in mode.
Nearest-file-wins, same as routing.
- Every Claude Code / Codex / Cursor / Hermes hook entrypoint and the pi
extension exit before doing anything when inactive (no context, no
network, no capture). resolveDirConfig().collect also honors the gate
so all capture paths (graph push, workers) are covered.
- `hivemind activation [status|opt-in|always|enable|disable]` CLI; whoami
reports an inactive directory.
- Fix: Cursor sessionEnd resolved `.hivemind` from process.cwd() (Cursor
runs user hooks from ~/.cursor), so it ignored `collect: false` and
spawned the skillify worker; now uses the payload's workspace root.
- openclaw graph bundles: route HIVEMIND_ACTIVATION through the tuning
dispatch to keep the ClawHub env-harvesting audit clean.
- Tests: activation unit tests + a coverage guard requiring the gate in
every hook entrypoint. README documents opt-in mode.

Pi coding agent extension API ToolContext cwd process.cwd session working directory registerTool
💡 Result:
For a custom tool, use the `ToolContext` (`ctx`) passed to `execute` for Pi’s workspace directory—not `process.cwd()`, which is the Node process’s directory and may differ when Pi is given an explicit `cwd`. Pi documents `ExtensionContext` as providing the working directory, and the SDK says `cwd` determines built-in tool paths and project resources. [1][2]
```ts
pi.registerTool({
name: "example",
// ...
async execute(toolCallId, params, signal, onUpdate, ctx) {
const cwd = ctx.cwd;
// Resolve relative paths against cwd.
},
});
```
`registerTool()` is the extension API for adding a model-callable tool; its `execute` handler receives the tool context. [3]
Gate Pi tools with the tool context cwd.
Pi passes ctx as the fifth execute argument. ctx.cwd is the workspace directory and can differ from process.cwd(). The current gates can therefore allow tools in an inactive directory or reject tools in an active directory.

Reject a missing --dir value.
flagValue returns undefined or the next flag when --dir has no value. Two cases show the problem:
hivemind activation enable --dirresolves toio.cwd. The command then writes into the current directory and does not report an error.enable --dir --sharedresolves--sharedas a relative path and writes into./--shared/.
If the value after --dir is missing or starts with --, return exit code 1 and print the usage text.
Proposed fix
const sub = args[0] && !args[0].startsWith("--") ? args[0] : "status";
- const dir = resolve(flagValue(args, "--dir") ?? io.cwd);
+ const dirArg = flagValue(args, "--dir");
+ if (args.includes("--dir") && (!dirArg || dirArg.startsWith("--"))) {
+ io.warn("--dir requires a path");
+ io.log(ACTIVATION_USAGE);
+ return 1;
+ }
+ const dir = resolve(dirArg ?? io.cwd);Also applies to: 78-78

Preserve memory-path protection while inactive. Each inactive pre-tool-use gate returns before it checks the literal tool input. A memory-touching operation can then reach its host tool instead of receiving a denial or safe replacement.

As per path instructions, “a memory-touching command must never be handed to the real host shell.” The instructions also specify that “Read needs file_path, Bash/Grep/Glob use a command-shaped echo.”
