Super excited to see Hive on HN!
I recently started contributing, focusing specifically on agent stability and tool hardening.
The Issue: Agents are fragile. I found that tools like grep or view_file could easily crash an agent if it encountered a massive file or binary data.
The Fix: I'm working on adding safety caps, pagination, and stricter input validation (just sent a PR for web_search!) to the core toolset.
The Impact: This ensures agents don't accidentally "suicide" when exploring large codebases, making them reliable enough for actual work, not just demos.
