# 🧠 HIVE MIND EXECUTION SUMMARY

**Swarm ID:** swarm-1762442132826-j5uukp17r
**Objective:** Build a network connectivity monitoring tool
**Completion Date:** 2025-11-06
**Status:** ✅ **MISSION ACCOMPLISHED**

---

## 🎯 OBJECTIVE

Build a tool that:
- Pings a configurable list of hosts once a minute
- Performs n pings per check and records success/failure percentage
- Tracks min/max/average latency to SQLite database
- Hosts a Streamlit dashboard for reviewing results
- Automatically manages disk usage (deletes records >90 days old)
- Uses the existing uv environment

---

## 👑 QUEEN COORDINATION STRATEGY

The Queen employed a **parallel execution strategy** with specialized worker agents:

1. **RESEARCHER Agent** → Library and best practices research
2. **CODER Agent** → Full system implementation
3. **ANALYST Agent** → Architecture and performance analysis
4. **TESTER Agent** → Testing strategy and validation

All agents executed **concurrently**, maximizing swarm efficiency.

### 📈 ANALYST Agent Insights

**Database Schema Design:**
- Optimized for time-series queries
- Composite indexes on (host_address, timestamp)
- UNIQUE constraint prevents duplicate records

**Performance Projections:**
- **Storage:** ~130 MB for 90 days (10 hosts)
- **Memory:** ~180 MB runtime footprint
- **CPU:** <1% for 10 hosts, ~5% for 100 hosts
- **Query Speed:** <10ms for latest status, <50ms for 24h trends

**Scaling Analysis:**
| Hosts | 90-Day Storage | Memory | CPU |
|-------|---------------|---------|-----|
| 10    | 130 MB        | 180 MB  | <1% |
| 50    | 648 MB        | 205 MB  | 2%  |
| 100   | 1.3 GB        | 230 MB  | 5%  |

**Recommendations:**
- 60-second monitoring interval (industry standard)
- 4 pings per check (optimal balance)
- SQLite WAL mode for concurrent access
- Daily cleanup at 3 AM (low usage period)
