## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The Claude local adapter can run agent turns through an ACP (Agent
Client Protocol) server, `claude-agent-acp`, instead of the plain CLI
> - Two separate packages each pin their own copy of that dependency:
`packages/adapters/claude-local` (the server-side adapter) and
`packages/paperclip-runner` (which builds the provider pack baked into
every managed sandbox image)
> - `claude-local` moved to `^0.73.0` in #12730, but `paperclip-runner`
was never bumped past `0.70.0` — nothing keeps the two in sync when only
one changes
> - That split means a sandbox image built from `paperclip-runner`'s
provider pack ships a `claude-agent-acp` the server-side adapter was
never actually compatible with
> - This pull request bumps `paperclip-runner`'s pin to `0.73.0`, the
only version that satisfies both packages' declared ranges at once, and
fixes the matching hardcoded version assertion in
`docker/daytona-runner/Dockerfile`
> - The benefit is one consistent, compatible `claude-agent-acp` version
across both the server host and every sandbox image built from this
source, instead of a silent split that only surfaces as a runtime
failure
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public issue exists for this specific split; opening directly per
CONTRIBUTING.md path B, following the bug report template fields.
**What happened?**
`packages/paperclip-runner/package.json` pins
`@agentclientprotocol/claude-agent-acp` at an exact `0.70.0`.
`packages/adapters/claude-local/package.json` requires `^0.73.0` (added
in #12730, 2026-09-02). Nobody re-synced `paperclip-runner`'s pin after
that change — the two packages' dependency graphs are independent, so a
bump in one doesn't propagate to the other. `paperclip-runner`'s copy is
what the fleet sandbox image's provider pack actually ships, so every
managed sandbox built from current source carries a `claude-agent-acp`
version the server-side adapter's own declared compatibility range
excludes.
**Expected behavior**
The two packages' `claude-agent-acp` pins should stay within a mutually
compatible range, so a sandbox image built from this source always ships
a version the server-side adapter actually supports.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Check `packages/adapters/claude-local/package.json`'s
`@agentclientprotocol/claude-agent-acp` range (`^0.73.0`).
2. Check `packages/paperclip-runner/package.json`'s pin for the same
package (`0.70.0` before this PR).
3. Note that `^0.73.0` on a `0.x` version only admits patch releases
(`>=0.73.0 <0.74.0` per semver caret rules), so `0.70.0` falls outside
it.
**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` as of this PR (paperclip-runner still at `0.70.0` prior to this
change; claude-local's `^0.73.0` requirement landed in #12730).
**Deployment mode**
Any deployment that runs `claude_local` agents through the ACP engine
against a sandbox image built from `packages/paperclip-runner`'s
provider pack (managed cloud sandboxes in particular).
Related PRs for context (not duplicates — none of these touch
`paperclip-runner`'s pin):
- #12730 — introduced the `^0.73.0` requirement in `claude-local`
- #11873 — the last time `paperclip-runner`'s pin moved (`0.69.0` →
`0.70.0`)
- #13105 — separately made an unavailable ACP engine a hard failure
instead of a silent CLI fallback, which is what turned this version
split into a visible, run-blocking error rather than a quiet downgrade
## What Changed
- Bump `@agentclientprotocol/claude-agent-acp` from `0.70.0` to `0.73.0`
(exact pin, matching this package's existing pin style for its other
agent-CLI dependencies) in `packages/paperclip-runner/package.json`.
- Update the corresponding hardcoded version assertion (`test
"$(claude-agent-acp --version)" = "0.70.0"`) in
`docker/daytona-runner/Dockerfile` to `0.73.0`, so its own build-time
check stays accurate instead of failing on the next build for an
unrelated reason.
- `pnpm-lock.yaml` is intentionally **not** included —
`pr-trusted.yml`'s `Validate dependency resolution and regenerate stale
lockfile` step already regenerates it for the merge tree and hands it to
downstream `--frozen-lockfile` jobs as an artifact, so a manual lockfile
commit here would just be stale the moment CI runs.
## Verification
- `0.73.0` is a real published version on npm (confirmed via `npm view
@agentclientprotocol/claude-agent-acp versions`), and it's the *only*
version satisfying claude-local's `^0.73.0` range, so this isn't a guess
at compatibility — it's the unique intersection of both packages'
declared ranges.
- `grep -rn "0\.70\.0" docker/ packages/paperclip-runner/package.json`
after this change shows no remaining stale references to the old pin.
- I did not run a full local install/test pass against a hand-updated
lockfile, since regenerating one locally would conflict with leaving
`pnpm-lock.yaml` untouched per the note above; CI's own
lockfile-regeneration step is the intended verification path for a
manifest-only dependency bump like this one.
- Downstream/full verification (does a sandbox image actually built with
this pin work end-to-end) is tracked separately in `paperclip-cloud` —
an unrelated internal-only repo, so not linked here — where a sibling
fix restores the ACP servers to the runtime `PATH` in the fleet sandbox
image itself; both fixes are needed together for a working sandbox, but
this PR is scoped to the version pin alone.
## Risks
- Low risk: single-line dependency version bump plus a matching
test-assertion update, no code changes. `0.73.0` is a patch release
within claude-local's own already-declared-safe range, so there's no
reason to expect it changes behavior tenants depend on.
- The main risk is unknown breaking changes between `claude-agent-acp`
0.70.0 and 0.73.0 that aren't caught by the version-string assertion
alone (that check only confirms the binary reports the right version,
not that its behavior is unchanged). I have not audited that package's
own changelog between those versions.
- `docker/daytona-runner/Dockerfile` is a parallel/reference image (per
its own header comment, meant to stay aligned with the private
`paperclip-cloud/fleet-sandbox-image/Dockerfile`, which is out of scope
here) — this PR does not touch that other Dockerfile.
## Model Used
Claude Sonnet 5 (`claude-sonnet-5`), via Claude Code, with tool use
(file edits, shell/git, `gh` CLI, `npm view` for version verification).
No extended-thinking mode. Standard Claude Code context window.

## Thinking Path
- Paperclip Runner needs its runtime preinstalled for fast sandbox
startup.
- Native and local adapters should launch one current CLI installation
per provider.
- An older global copy can shadow that installation, and exact native
compatibility pins must match it.
- Update the qualified releases and binary digests, expose shared CLI
entrypoints from the provider pack, and prefer the image-owned bin
directory.
- Keep dependency installation in the image build; task startup only
discovers, links, and verifies artifacts.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What happened?**
Remote native startup rejected a stale global Codex, while CLI-only
images lacked runnerd entirely.
**Expected behavior**
An image-baked runtime starts without uploading binaries or installing
packages. All adapters share the same current provider CLI.
**Steps to reproduce**
Start a native remote task with the old global Codex and the updated
runtime available only under `/opt/paperclip-runner/bin`.
**Paperclip version or commit**
Discovery behavior at `54a99d884`.
**Deployment mode**
Docker with a remote sandbox.
## What Changed
- Prefer `/opt/paperclip-runner/bin`, then the user's local bin
directory, then PATH. Existing metadata and version validation remains
in force.
- Qualify Codex 0.153.4, OpenCode 1.18.29, and Claude SDK 0.3.263 / CLI
2.1.263. Update binary digests, TypeScript/Rust checks, registry
defaults, and the displayed OpenCode version together.
- Share Codex and Claude's native executable with the ACP bridges
through exact dependency overrides. Preserve the separately qualified
ACP bridge implementations and their security patches.
- Expose shared provider-pack CLI launchers; fail the pack build if
Codex ACP resolves a separate Codex installation. Update the eval
image's other agent CLIs to current stable releases and remove duplicate
global provider installs.
- Document the single-current-CLI policy in source comments and
development guidance. Latest stable releases are resolved at
review/build preparation and pinned; task startup never auto-updates.
## Verification
- Native-session and adapter-registry suites: 158 tests passed.
- Provider suites: 88 tests passed, 7 Linux-only checks skipped on
macOS. One existing macOS temporary-path alias assertion passed when
rerun with canonical `TMPDIR=/private/tmp`.
- Package-contract and OpenCode materialization tests: 11 passed.
- Full typecheck, build, and token gates passed. Rust
native-provider/recovery tests: 19 passed.
- Broad local suite: 5,974 passed, 23 failed, 41 skipped. Failures are
in unchanged macOS workspace/path/port and connection suites; focused
runtime tests pass. All latest-head Linux PR checks passed, including
the full test shards, typecheck, build, runner verification, browser
suites, and canary dry run.
- The standalone fleet image built with one current provider CLI each
and passed native Codex/Claude binary-integrity checks. A disposable
Daytona sandbox reported ready in 798 ms; its baked runner completed an
API-key `gpt-5.6-luna` turn in 2,430 ms and returned the expected marker
with a usage receipt. No runtime artifacts were uploaded or installed.
- The normal shared `codex exec` entrypoint also completed an API-key
`gpt-5.6-luna` turn in 2,321 ms.
- Both image builds verify the complete generated lockfile against a
reviewed SHA-256 before package installation or lifecycle execution.
Root lockfile changes remain CI-owned. Merge and rollout remain on hold
for operator review.
## Risks
- Updating provider CLIs changes their behavior for all adapters;
version probes and live native smoke testing are required before image
promotion.
- The image-owned directory takes precedence. Its entries must launch
the same shared CLI as the global PATH, not a private older/newer copy.
- Application qualification pins and the deployed image must move
together. No startup fallback installation is added.
- No schema or authentication-policy changes.
## Model Used
OpenAI GPT-6 (Codex). The session does not expose a more specific model
ID or context-window size. Used reasoning, repository inspection, code
execution, and browser verification.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The full-stack runner campaign checks local and Daytona runner
behavior.
> - A Daytona image content miss starts a cold multi-stage Docker build.
> - Stable dependency and agent CLI layers take most of the image build
time.
> - Development targets must not write shared cache state.

gate.
> - It also puts volatile source inputs after stable install layers.
> - The benefit is a shorter Daytona image build without weaker secret
isolation.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What existing behavior does this improve?**
This improves the Daytona runner image stage in the full-stack E2E
workflow.
**Subsystem affected**
The GitHub Actions runner E2E workflow and its Daytona Docker image are
affected.
**Current behavior**
Each new Daytona image content ID starts with an empty BuildKit cache. A
runner source change also invalidates dependency and agent CLI install
layers because volatile inputs occur before those layers.
**Proposed behavior**
All authorized campaigns can read one GHCR BuildKit cache. Only a
campaign whose target ref is the repository default branch can update
that cache. The Dockerfile installs dependencies and agent CLIs before
it consumes volatile runner source or revision metadata.
**Reason and benefit**
The paid runner matrix spends several minutes building the image before
any selected cell can start. Cache reuse removes repeated stable setup
work and makes focused Daytona iterations faster.
**Breaking changes**
None. The immutable content tag, digest inspection, Cosign signature,
image labels, pinned base images, and provider credential boundary stay
unchanged.
## What Changed
- Read a registry-backed BuildKit cache for Daytona image content
misses.
- Export the cache only when the resolved target ref is the default
branch.
- Keep provider credentials outside the image build and cache.
- Install provider-pack dependencies before runner source is copied.
- Keep expensive agent CLI installs before source revision metadata.
- Add workflow and Docker layer-order contract checks.
## Verification
- `prettier --write .github/workflows/runner-full-stack-e2e.yml
tests/runner-e2e/daytona-image.test.ts
tests/runner-e2e/workflow-security.test.ts`
- `actionlint .github/workflows/runner-full-stack-e2e.yml`
- `git diff --check`
- I did not run a test suite or Docker image build locally. The
requested iteration policy reserves those checks for GitHub Actions.
## Risks
Low risk. BuildKit can use a cache record only when its content key
matches the build instruction and input. Development targets have
read-only cache access. The cache contains public source and build
outputs, but it does not receive provider credentials or the GitHub
token as Docker build inputs.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip uses paid full-stack tests to verify local and Daytona
runner behavior.

runtime inputs match.
> - The prior key covered the full runner package even when Docker
excluded development files.

identical image rebuild.
> - This pull request aligns the Docker input closure and content-key
closure.
> - The benefit is faster paid-test iteration without unsafe image
reuse.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What existing behavior does this improve?**
The Daytona paid-test workflow currently rebuilds its large runner image
after changes to runner tests, fixtures, smoke scripts, or
documentation. Those files do not enter the image and do not change its
runtime bytes.
**Subsystem affected**
The runner full-stack E2E workflow and its Daytona image build contract
are affected.
**Current behavior**
The content key hashes the full runner package. A development-only edit
changes the key even though the Docker build context excludes that edit.
**Proposed behavior**
The Dockerfile copies an explicit runtime build closure. The content key
hashes the same closure and continues to include every source, manifest,
lockfile, protocol, toolchain, and pinned image input that can affect
runtime bytes.
**Reason and benefit**
The workflow can reuse verified images for test-only changes. A runtime
change still creates a new immutable key and image.
**Breaking changes**
None. This changes only paid-test image cache identity and Docker build
inputs.
## What Changed
- Replace broad runner and eval package copies with explicit build
inputs.
- Advance the Daytona image content schema to version 5.
- Hash the matching explicit TypeScript, protocol, script, manifest,
lockfile, and Rust closure.
- Add contract coverage for runtime inputs and development-only
exclusions.
## Verification
- Focused Daytona image contract tests passed: 6 of 6.
- Exact-head ordinary CI [run
33913366909](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/33913366909)
passed every job.
- The PR policy check passed on [run 33913366951, attempt
2](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/33913366951).
- The one-cell paid [run
33916670340](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/33916670340)
passed end to end.
- Image job 101165705592 built the explicit 6.33 MB context from exact
source revision `4bcfb3faa7694aad4ceca2193230d9693af6c9e0`.
- The workflow published content key
`3a3a8a19d2362263e972bead4427048c82a7da61dc203cd5c83aa40b88d90524` at
immutable digest
`sha256:a5b6f7517bc020ec2bae8075210d1a3f867284f4733042114528e19150ffac0a`.
- Cosign verified the image and recorded transparency log entry
2715972694.
- The sole `core-compatibility.legacy-codex.daytona.message-marker` cell
passed in job 101168063383.
- Campaign aggregation, immutable S3 history publication, and GitHub
Pages publication all passed.
- Full local test, build, and typecheck suites were not run.
## Risks
A future Docker build input could be omitted from the explicit closure.
Contract tests reject the prior broad copies and check the current
required runtime inputs. The real Daytona image build also qualified the
closure before merge.
## Model Used
OpenAI Codex GPT-5.6 with agentic reasoning and tool use.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The runner subsystem executes agent work across local and managed
provider backends.
> - The lower pull requests restore the task runtime, provider backends,
and managed-provider control plane.
> - The restored system needs repeatable full-stack checks before it can
ship safely.

release gates for the restored runner stack.
> - The benefit is measurable runner parity with safer release
decisions.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**Subsystem affected**
Cross-cutting. This change covers runner tests, release workflows,
server contracts, and evaluation tools.
**Problem or motivation**
The runner stack did not have one complete acceptance surface for native
Codex, ACPX, Claude Managed, and AWS AgentCore. Release checks could
miss provider drift, task-view regressions, cost-policy errors, and
destructive cleanup errors.
**Proposed solution**
Add a 57-cell full-stack catalog, a Daytona image, and opt-in paid
workflows. Add live evaluation, chaos, cost-limit, redaction, and
release contract checks. Add AWS AgentCore infrastructure and guarded
provisioning tools. Keep the native runner experimental flag off by
default.
**Alternatives considered**
We considered manual smoke tests only. They do not give repeatable
evidence and they do not protect release branches. We also considered
one large pull request. The stacked pull requests keep each review below
the Greptile file limit.
**Roadmap alignment**
This work supports the shipped Cloud / Sandbox agents milestone and the
shipped Agent evals & feedback milestone in `ROADMAP.md`.
Related stack:
- #12699 adds managed provider backends and lifecycle support.
- #12691 adds qualified OpenCode and ACPX provider backends.
- #12685 restores task runtime rendering and steering.
## What Changed
- Add the runner full-stack harness with 57 catalog cells and 60 unit
tests.
- Add a Daytona runner image with digest-pinned base images and
base-aware image-content checks.
- Add guarded live evaluation and chaos workflows with a fixed
40-execution matrix; live and full-stack paid schedules now run only on
Sundays or by manual dispatch.
- Add in-flight reported-usage cost stops, post-turn cost caps,
exact-threshold failure classification, secret redaction, retry
classification, and actor authorization.
- Reattach stream and hard-budget listeners before restart-recovery
continuations so restored paid sessions cannot bypass in-flight
interruption.
- Preserve OpenCode usage and cost across tool-loop messages and turns
while exposing an explicit current-run delta to durable accounting.
- Keep PNG/WebM evidence in access-controlled artifacts only, reject
SVG, and publish only pruned inert structured per-attempt evidence.
- Add AWS AgentCore infrastructure, provisioning checks, and smoke
tools; reject unsafe model identifiers, require exact stack ownership
markers, and make failed-stack replacement explicit.
- Add evaluation-session contracts and capability reports.
- Add release workflow checks for immutable action pins, frozen
dependency installs, exact weekly cron shape, paid-run guards,
provider-secret isolation, and chaos test paths.
- Reauthorize the original and triggering numeric actor IDs as the first
step of every provider-secret job, including partial reruns, before
checkout or provider access.
- Give each full-stack matrix cell only its matching provider
credential, expose Daytona only to Daytona cells, and disable shared
dependency caches anywhere paid credentials or OIDC write access are
present.
- Protect the legacy manual E2E workflow with the same default-branch,
allowlist, environment, and per-job authorization boundary.
- Rotate live-eval candidates by week and retain 120 days of compatible
history so the seven-week trend window remains viable.
- Restore the root runner-acceptance commands and reconcile reported
snapshots,
raw receipts, and terminal usage without double counting or losing late
usage.
- Mark ACPX token deltas exact only when every budget field is present,
keep
cumulative cost/request authority separate, reject non-USD cost
labeling,
and include thought tokens in output-token budgets.
- Keep `enableNativeRunner` off by default. The acceptance harness
enables it only in its isolated test instance.
## Verification
Passed locally:
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner typecheck`
- `pnpm test:runner-acceptance:typecheck`
- `pnpm test:runner-acceptance` (19 tests)
- focused OpenCode proxy, driver, runnerd transport, live-session, and
turn-stream tests (106 tests)
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner exec vitest run
src/live/clean-room-server.test.ts` (22 tests)
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck`
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:unit` (62 tests)
- `node --test scripts/__tests__/release-verify-workflow.test.mjs`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner
test:runner-workflow-evals` (22 tests)
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm build`
- `node --test
packages/paperclip-runner/scripts/aws-agentcore-provisioning.test.mjs`
(6 tests)
- `git diff --check`
- `cargo test --manifest-path
packages/paperclip-runner/runner/Cargo.toml -p paperclip-runner-core
--lib --locked` (161 tests)
- focused ACPX provider-event tests (10 tests)
- The rebased PR changes 92 files. `pnpm-lock.yaml` is unchanged.
I did not run paid live provider jobs or provision AWS resources. Those
checks need credentials and can create cost.
## Risks
The paid workflows can create provider cost. They require an allowlisted
original and triggering actor, the protected `runner-e2e-paid`
environment, explicit opt-in variables, and cost limits. The four
provider credentials exist only in that master-only environment, which
requires allowlisted reviewer approval and disables administrator
bypass; repository and organization Actions scopes contain no copies.
Provider usage arrives after a billable request, so the live guard
cannot prevent one request from crossing a threshold. It interrupts
immediately on the first reported threshold hit and permits no
continuation.
Visual evidence can contain secrets rendered as pixels. PNG/WebM remain
only in access-controlled workflow artifacts; SVG and per-attempt XML
are excluded, and S3/Pages receive a pruned structured dashboard.
The AWS scripts can create cloud resources. They use explicit commands,
least-privilege roles, KMS encryption, saved nonsecret metadata, and
explicit teardown.
This pull request does not enable the experimental native runner for
existing instances.
