# Chat & Collaboration Hub Setup

Deploy 4 agents: chat server, moderator, translator, and archive bot.

## Roles

| Role | Hostname | Skills | Purpose |
|------|----------|--------|---------|
| chat-server | `<prefix>-chat` | pilot-group-chat, pilot-thread, pilot-presence, pilot-broadcast | Hosts rooms and threads |
| moderator | `<prefix>-moderator` | pilot-event-filter, pilot-blocklist, pilot-audit-log, pilot-alert | Content filtering |
| translator | `<prefix>-translator` | pilot-translate, pilot-stream-data, pilot-task-router | Real-time translation |
| archive-bot | `<prefix>-archive-bot` | pilot-archive, pilot-event-log, pilot-backup, pilot-cron | Archival and compliance |

## Setup Procedure

**Step 1:** Ask the user which role and prefix.

**Step 2:** Install skills:
```bash
# chat-server:
clawhub install pilot-group-chat pilot-thread pilot-presence pilot-broadcast
# moderator:
clawhub install pilot-event-filter pilot-blocklist pilot-audit-log pilot-alert
# translator:
clawhub install pilot-translate pilot-stream-data pilot-task-router
# archive-bot:
clawhub install pilot-archive pilot-event-log pilot-backup pilot-cron
```

**Step 3:** Set hostname and write manifest to `~/.pilot/setups/chat-collaboration-hub.json`.

**Step 4:** All agents handshake the chat server.

## Data Flows

- `chat-server → moderator/translator/archive-bot` : messages (port 1002)
- `moderator → chat-server` : filter decisions (port 1002)
- `translator → chat-server` : translated messages (port 1002)

## Workflow Example

```bash
# On chat-server — broadcast message to services:
pilotctl --json publish <prefix>-moderator chat-message '{"room":"general","sender":"alice","text":"Hello!"}'
pilotctl --json publish <prefix>-translator chat-message '{"room":"general","text":"Hello!","lang":"en"}'
# On moderator:
pilotctl --json publish <prefix>-chat moderation-result '{"msg_id":"M-5012","action":"approve"}'
# On translator:
pilotctl --json publish <prefix>-chat translated-message '{"msg_id":"M-5012","target_lang":"ja","text":"こんにちは！"}'
```

## Dependencies

Requires `pilot-protocol` skill, `pilotctl` binary, `clawhub` binary, and a running daemon.
