## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #12640.
Refs #12616.
Refs #12352.
**Subsystem affected**
Agent configuration, instance experimental settings, run ledger,
provider trace inspector, and administrator actions.
**Problem or motivation**
The native runner lacks one safe operator surface for Codex permissions,
lifecycle, raw trace capture, and run inspection. The integration branch
also contains provider choices that the production backend cannot
execute yet.
**Proposed solution**
Expose only the qualified Codex controls. Keep Paperclip Developer Mode
and runner preview ingress off by default. Gate raw trace actions by
administrator access and existing trace authorization.
**Alternatives considered**
Exposing unfinished providers would create configurations that fail at
runtime. Always-on tracing would increase sensitive data and storage
risk.
**Roadmap alignment**
This work supports governed Cloud and Sandbox agents and production
diagnostics.
## Stack
- Base PR: #12640.
- Lower PRs: #12639 and #12638.
- This PR contains only its 54-file administration and observability
delta.
- This is the final feature PR in the Codex production stack.
## What Changed
- Added Codex-only Paperclip Runner permission and lifecycle controls.
- Added bounded warm idle configuration.
- Kept the provider field fixed to Codex.
- Added administrator-only one-run raw trace requests.
- Added a persistent future-run raw trace toggle.
- Added trace status, metadata, ledger, and canonical runner inspection.
- Added JSON-RPC request-origin grouping and finalization lineage.
- Restored the stateful PRP transcript parser and focused projection
tests required by trace inspection.
- Added default-off Paperclip Developer Mode.
- Added Honeycomb run links for authorized developer mode.
- Disabled the legacy operational skill for `paperclip_runner`.
- Did not expose OpenCode, ACPX, Pi, Claude Managed, or AWS runner
choices.
- Did not change migrations, workflows, dependencies, or
`pnpm-lock.yaml`.
## Verification
- GitHub Actions will run UI tests, server tests, repository typecheck,
build, browser tests, security, and policy gates.
- Tests cover Codex configuration defaults and bounds, administrator
trace actions, persistent settings, ledger inspection, trace lineage,
and Honeycomb links.
- Existing server trace authorization and retention tests remain the
backend authority.
- Local tests were not run. The requested verification policy uses
GitHub Actions for this series.
- `git diff --check runner/task-workspace-experience...HEAD` passes.
- The delta contains 54 files.
## Risks
- Raw provider traces can contain sensitive provider data.
- Existing server authorization controls access, reveal, download,
retention, and deletion.
- The UI gates trace actions by administrator access and developer mode.
- All new instance settings remain off by default.
- Fresh Paperclip Runner configuration remains Codex-only.
- Direct adapters and legacy task behavior do not change in this PR.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #12616.
Refs #12352.
**Subsystem affected**
Cross-cutting. This change touches runner transport, server
orchestration, plugin contracts, and shared settings.
**Problem or motivation**
Native execution cannot resolve an authenticated runner ingress through
a remote environment. The server also lacks one provider-neutral
contract for remote execution targets.
**Proposed solution**
Add a default-off runner preview ingress capability. Add
transport-neutral runner connectivity. Add remote execution target and
lifecycle handling. Add a Daytona ingress implementation with redacted
credentials.
**Alternatives considered**
A provider-specific server path would duplicate orchestration and
authorization. A public endpoint without an environment contract would
weaken the trust boundary.
**Roadmap alignment**
This work supports the Cloud and Sandbox agents milestone. It also
supports self-healing runs and governed tool access.
## What Changed
- Added execution-target traits for local, SSH, and sandbox
environments.
- Added plugin RPC contracts for runner ingress endpoints.
- Added authenticated Daytona preview ingress.
- Added transport-neutral PRP outbound connections.
- Added remote runner artifact verification and fail-closed provider
selection.
- Added bounded native session resume, cancellation, and lifecycle
recovery.
- Preserved Codex-only selection for fresh experimental runner starts.
- Preserved all direct adapter execution and finalization paths.
- Removed stale Pi provider-pack requirements that security review
rejected.
- Kept the rollout controls off by default.
- Did not change pnpm-lock.yaml, Cargo, database migrations, or GitHub
workflows.
## Verification
- GitHub Actions will run the repository test, typecheck, build,
security, and policy gates.
- Focused tests cover ingress validation, redaction, execution targets,
remote lifecycle, cancellation, resume, and legacy adapter selection.
- Local tests were not run. The requested verification policy uses
GitHub Actions for this series.
- `git diff --check origin/master...HEAD` passes.
- The diff contains 52 files.
## Risks
- Remote execution crosses a trust boundary.
- The implementation validates target capabilities, artifact digests,
provider-pack pins, and connection metadata.
- The feature remains default-off.
- Fresh native selection remains Codex-only.
- Existing direct adapters remain on the legacy path.
- This PR does not yet make remote Codex runnable. The next PR adds the
Rust WSS and TLS transport.
## Model Used
OpenAI Codex with GPT-5.6. The work used high-reasoning agent mode,
repository tools, GitHub tools, and parallel code-audit agents.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source control plane for teams of AI agents.
> - Agent runs currently use direct adapters and their established
finalization paths.
> - The new runner package needs one production integration before it
can execute a real provider through the server.
> - That integration must not change direct adapters or expose
unsupported providers.
> - The rollout must also preserve native runs that were already
recorded when the feature flag changes.
> - This pull request adds a default-off, Codex-only native execution
path and its authority boundary.
> - The benefit is a recoverable production vertical slice with explicit
compatibility guards.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**Subsystem affected**
Cross-cutting server orchestration and adapter selection.
**Problem or motivation**
The runner package exists, but the server cannot yet start and recover a
governed Codex run through it. A careless integration could also route
existing direct adapters into the native runtime or lose cancellation
and finalization state.
**Proposed solution**
Add a hidden `paperclip_runner` adapter for Codex. Keep it behind the
default-off instance flag. Bind native execution, resume, cancellation,
semantic tool authority, and finalization to the recorded company,
issue, run, and coordinator identities. Leave every direct adapter on
its existing path.
**Alternatives considered**
A multi-provider launch was rejected because only Codex has the complete
production bridge in this series. Replacing direct adapter execution was
rejected because the runner remains experimental.
**Roadmap alignment**
This work supports governed tool access, action attribution, and
self-healing runs. It keeps the integration narrow and default-off.
## What Changed
- Add the Codex-only native session executor and persisted resumption
path.
- Add run-scoped semantic tool projection, authorization, receipts, and
idempotency.
- Add audited native cancellation with durable issue and coordinator
binding.
- Add result fencing so a recorded result cannot reacquire the provider
and run twice.
- Reject fresh runner starts when the rollout flag is off while
preserving recorded native recovery.
- Keep direct adapters outside native status, cancellation, record
creation, and finalization.
- Add focused conformance, recovery, cancellation, status, portability,
and compatibility coverage.
## Verification
- GitHub Actions is the authoritative test environment for this large
stack.
- The PR policy and lightweight stack checks run while this is a middle
PR.
- The full required suite runs when this PR becomes the lowest unmerged
or top PR.
- Greptile will review this exact delta after the branch is pushed.
## Risks
- The main risk is routing a legacy adapter into native execution.
Runtime selection and heartbeat tests cover that boundary.
- The next risk is stale or cross-company cancellation. Durable binding
checks and transactional audit persistence cover it.
- The adapter remains hidden and default-off. Only Codex is admitted.
- There are no database migration, lockfile, or GitHub workflow changes
in this PR.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The runner package already provides the production protocol and
execution spine.
> - Contributors still need stable SDK surfaces, deterministic test
tools, and local inspection tools.
> - Those surfaces share generated contracts and must change as one
package boundary.
> - This pull request adds the package-local SDK, labs, examples, and
drift checks.
> - The benefit is a reviewable developer platform that does not change
application execution selection.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**Subsystem affected**
`packages/paperclip-runner` — runner SDK, conformance tools, and
developer tooling.
**Problem or motivation**
The production runner spine is present, but package consumers cannot
build deterministic integrations, inspect sessions, or verify
provider-neutral behavior through supported surfaces.
**Proposed solution**
Add browser, React, standalone, live-session, scenario, conformance, and
evaluation surfaces. Add generated contract inventories and
package-local verification scripts. Keep production application routing
unchanged.
**Alternatives considered**
We considered splitting each generated catalog, SDK surface, and demo
into separate pull requests. Those changes share exports, fixtures, and
drift gates. Splitting them would create intermediate package states
that do not build.
**Roadmap alignment**
No overlapping item appears in `ROADMAP.md`. This work extends the
runner package that is already on `master`.
## What Changed
- Add browser, React, standalone, live-session, and issue-thread SDK
surfaces.
- Add deterministic mock control-plane, scenario, conformance, replay,
and evaluation tools.
- Add bounded Codex, OpenCode, and ACPX development transports and
fixtures.
- Keep deferred managed-provider execution fail-closed. Persisted
compatibility data remains readable.
- Add generated capability inventories with their source files and drift
checks.
- Add examples, package documentation, browser checks, and
clean-consumer checks.
- Preserve the reviewed protocol bounds, replay compatibility aliases,
process environment isolation, and semantic redaction limits.
- Update the ACPX package patch that the existing workspace patch
registry already tracks.
- Do not change `pnpm-lock.yaml`, repository workflows, server runtime
selection, or the application UI.
## Verification
GitHub Actions is the verification authority for this pull request. The
repository CI, package TypeScript and Rust checks, package tests,
generated-output drift checks, browser checks, security scans, and
Greptile review must pass on the exact head.
Local test suites were not run because this series uses parallel GitHub
Actions for verification.
## Risks
This is a large greenfield package change. The main risks are public
export drift, generated-output drift, and optional React consumer
compatibility. Package boundary checks, clean-consumer checks, and
browser tests cover those risks. Production adapter selection and server
execution are outside this pull request.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description
N/A — no public GitHub issue exists for this follow-up. Related merged
work:
[#12619](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/12619) and
[paperclip-cloud
#319](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/pull/319).
**What happened?**
A fresh Paperclip-managed OAuth connection discovered the correct Google
Workspace tools, but it left every allowed tool in quarantine. The Apps
page then reported zero actions for write profiles and counted disabled
actions for read profiles.
**Expected behavior**
A fresh or revived managed connection must remain disabled until
Paperclip stores credentials, discovers the catalog, reviews the profile
allowlist, installs default policies, and activates the connection. A
later reauthorization must preserve user choices. A later catalog change
must quarantine new or changed tools.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Connect a managed Google Workspace write profile.
2. Complete provider consent and return through the instance callback.
3. Open the connection in Apps.
4. Observe that the connection is active but the allowed actions remain
quarantined.
**Paperclip version or commit**
Commit `c7ebc089c` from merged pull request #12619.
**Deployment mode**
Self-hosted local development through Tailscale HTTPS. The same callback
logic applies to Cloud-hosted instances.
**Installation method**
Built from source with pnpm.
**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Not adapter-specific. This change affects the core Apps and tool-access
paths.
## What Changed
- Kept fresh and revived managed connections in the draft state until
catalog finalization succeeds.
- Added a managed-draft refresh option that quarantines discovery
results without changing generic draft behavior.
- Activated reviewed profile tools, created bindings, and installed
ask-first policies in the existing finalization transaction.
- Preserved custom profiles, bindings, archived state, and policies
during ordinary reauthorization.
- Kept new or changed tools quarantined after activation and kept
out-of-profile tools disabled.
- Counted only active catalog entries as available actions in the Apps
page.
- Added retry, revival, reauthorization, policy, profile, and UI
regression coverage.
## Verification
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts` — passed, 208 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/pages/apps/AppDetail.test.tsx` — passed, 52 tests.
- Server and UI typechecks passed.
- `pnpm build` — passed on the final tree.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — passed.
- `git diff --check` — passed.
- Browser walkthrough — passed for all 16 enabled Google Workspace
profiles through the staging Cloud broker and a self-hosted Tailscale
HTTPS instance. Every final connection became active and exposed at
least one allowed action.
- `pnpm test:run` — the changed suites passed. The shared live-QA
environment caused unrelated workspace-runtime concurrency and cleanup
failures, so hosted CI is the clean-environment authority for the full
suite.
## Risks
- The change affects managed OAuth only. Customer-owned OAuth setup
keeps its current behavior.
- A failed initial finalization now leaves a safe draft that the
callback can retry.
- An ordinary active reauthorization does not rebuild defaults, so
existing user policy remains intact.
- There are no database migrations and no public API changes.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description
N/A — no public GitHub issue exists for this follow-up. Related merged
work:
[#12600](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/12600) and
[#12609](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/12609).
This change follows the merged Paperclip Cloud managed OAuth broker
work. It does not add a new broker or provider client.
**What happened?**
The Google Workspace connection definitions could drift from the shared
connector profile registry. The callback activity always named Gmail.
Google Sheets did not show the Developer Preview requirement. The setup
flow could select a customer-owned write method when Cloud advertised
only a managed read profile. The tool-access service had no non-Gmail
managed callback test.
**Expected behavior**
Each managed Google Workspace profile must use its exact app slug, MCP
URL, scopes, ownership, risk tier, and write-tool policy. Callback
activity must name the correct app and profile. Every Google Workspace
card must show the same Developer Preview prerequisite. An available
managed method must be the default within the selected capability. The
customer-owned method must remain available as a fallback.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Advertise only the `gmail.read` managed profile.
2. Open the Gmail connection setup.
3. Observe that the customer-owned draft method becomes the default.
4. Complete a managed Google Drive callback.
5. Observe that the activity row names Gmail instead of Google Drive.
6. Open the Google Sheets setup.
7. Observe that it does not show the Google Developer Preview
prerequisite.
**Paperclip version or commit**
Current `master` at the start of this follow-up.
**Deployment mode**
Local development. The same connector definitions apply to Cloud-hosted
and self-hosted instances.
**Installation method**
Built from source with pnpm.
**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Not adapter-specific. This change affects the core Apps and tool-access
paths.
## What Changed
- Added one table-driven invariant for all 16 Google Workspace profiles.
- Verified each profile against its app slug, MCP URL, exact scopes,
capability, ownership, grant kind, risk tier, and write-tool allowlist.
- Kept the Google Chat write profile least-privilege because its only
enabled write tool is `send_message`.
- Added the Google Developer Preview prerequisite to Google Sheets.
- Preferred an available Paperclip-managed method before a
customer-owned method.
- Preserved explicit capability selection and the customer OAuth
fallback.
- Switched managed-profile availability from the anonymous global
capability document to the enrolled instance's signed status response,
so internal-pilot profiles cannot be enabled locally without an
authorized instance binding.
- Replaced the Gmail callback activity constant with the validated app
slug and connector profile.
- Added connector and route coverage for signed per-instance
capabilities, including inactive and malformed responses.
- Added a Google Drive callback test that covers the signed profile
request, personal vault refs, encrypted secret rows, catalog filtering,
and non-sensitive activity details.
## Verification
- `pnpm -r typecheck` — passed across all workspaces before the
signed-capability follow-up; final targeted shared and server typechecks
also passed after it.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/services/paperclip-cloud-connector.test.ts` — passed, 9
tests.
- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/app-definitions.test.ts` —
passed, 19 tests.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts` — passed, 205 tests.
- `pnpm test:run` — incomplete after the general server group reported
five failures in `server/src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts`. The
failures are outside the changed files. The run was stopped before the
remaining serialized suites because the shared worktree was needed for a
follow-up edit.
- `pnpm build` — passed on the final tree.
- `git diff --check` — passed on the final tree.
The five full-suite failures were:
- `records teardown and cleanup operations when a recorder is provided`
- `does not accept an occupied allocated port when listener ownership is
unavailable`
- `backfills a pre-existing HTTP-only managed worktree runtime to
verified HTTPS in place`
- `re-adopts a live service whose shell command differs from the
surviving process argv`
- `reuses a registered legacy worktree that already has the branch
checked out`
## Risks
- The default setup method changes when at least one Paperclip-managed
method is available. Explicit read, write, or draft choices still stay
within the selected capability group.
- Managed method availability now depends on Paperclip Cloud's signed
enrolled-instance status. A Cloud outage or an inactive enrollment hides
managed methods while leaving customer-owned OAuth available.
- The callback activity schema gains a non-sensitive `profile` value. It
does not include tokens, account identifiers, emails, tenant
identifiers, or provider error text.
- The profile invariant is strict. A future Google scope or tool change
must update the shared registry and the matching app definition
together.
- There are no database migrations and no public API changes.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs: #12600
**What happened?**
A self-hosted instance with a saved connector identity could switch its
broker base URL and environment. Paperclip then used the saved identity
with the new target. The enrollment page received an unknown draft. A
successful callback also opened an unscoped Apps path, which the UI
treated as a company prefix.
**Expected behavior**
Paperclip must use one atomic identity and broker target. A target
change must never mix old keys with a new broker. A completed enrollment
must return to the initiating company's Connections page.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a self-hosted Paperclip instance and create a pending connector
enrollment against the production broker.
2. Set the connector base URL and environment to staging.
3. Start enrollment again and open the returned verification URL.
4. Complete enrollment and inspect the final browser route.
**Paperclip version or commit**
`300a89ec1`
**Deployment mode**
Local dev (`pnpm dev`) through private HTTPS.
## What Changed
- Resolve the connector broker and environment as one target.
- Rotate a non-active identity when an administrator explicitly starts
enrollment for a different target.
- Reject active target changes and broker/environment mismatches.
- Treat managed environment identity fields as one atomic tuple.
- Require the Cloud verification URL to contain only the exact
enrollment identifier.
- Validate the configured target again before the instance redeems an
enrollment callback.
- Return successful enrollment callbacks to the company-prefixed
Connections page.
- Add regression tests for target isolation, managed identity
precedence, URL validation, and the return path.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/services/paperclip-cloud-connector-enrollment.test.ts
server/src/services/paperclip-cloud-connector.test.ts
server/src/routes/tool-access-connection-intent.test.ts` (31 tests
passed)
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm build`
- `git diff --check`
- Completed a staging Cloud enrollment from a local Paperclip instance
through private HTTPS.
- Confirmed the instance reports an active staging enrollment for its
exact HTTPS origin.
- Confirmed the company-prefixed Connections route renders the
enrollment success state.
- `pnpm test:run` also reached five unrelated macOS harness failures.
Two compare `/var` with `/private/var`. Three expect listener-fixture
failures that do not occur on this host. The same five failures
reproduce when the two workspace-runtime suites run alone.
## Risks
- Low risk. The change affects only Paperclip Cloud connector identity
selection and the enrollment return route.
- An active identity now fails closed when an operator changes its
broker target. The operator must restore the original target or perform
a new enrollment flow.
- Starting a new target replaces a non-active draft, so its previous
one-time approval link no longer works.
- This change does not alter provider tokens, grants, catalogs, or tool
calls.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The heartbeat runtime classifies adapter run failures, and the
recovery service uses that classification to decide between automatic
retry, a timed provider-quota wait, and a board escalation
> - The Claude CLI changed its subscription-limit stop message to
"You've hit your limit · resets 2:30am (UTC)", and no quota matcher
knows this qualifier-less wording
> - A limit-hit run therefore classifies as `adapter_failed` (or
`claude_auth_required`), recovery burns its continuation retries against
a hard limit, and the issue blocks with the opaque "No live execution
path" notice instead of waiting for the reset and retrying automatically
> - This pull request teaches the adapter and the recovery service the
new wording, and titles stranded-escalation notices from the classified
run error code so operators see the cause at a glance
> - The benefit is that usage-limit stops self-heal at the provider
reset time, and the notices that do post say "Error: usage limit
reached" or "Error: not logged in to Claude" instead of a generic title
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public issue exists; the underlying problem follows the bug template:
**What happened?**
On a staging deployment, an assigned `in_progress` issue hit the Claude
subscription usage limit. The run recorded the error `Claude run failed:
subtype=success: You've hit your limit · resets 2:30am (UTC)`. The
automatic continuation retry failed the same way in 34 seconds with
`errorCode: adapter_failed`. Terminal-run recovery then escalated: the
issue moved to `blocked` with the notice "No live execution path" and a
board-owned recovery action. The notice gave the operator no indication
that the cause was a usage limit with a known reset time.
**Expected behavior**
A usage-limit stop classifies as `provider_quota` with the reset clock
parsed into `retryNotBefore`. The recovery service takes its
provider-quota wait path: a system-owned recovery action that waits for
the reset time and retries the original assignee automatically. If an
escalation notice does post, its title names the classified cause.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run a `claude_local` agent on an issue until the Claude subscription
limit is hit, so the CLI result is "You've hit your limit · resets
\<time\> (UTC)".
2. Let terminal-run recovery retry the continuation.
3. Observe the issue block with the "No live execution path" notice
instead of a timed quota wait. `classifyAdapterFailureForRecovery`
returns `null` for the recorded error text; `CLAUDE_PROVIDER_QUOTA_RE`
and `PROVIDER_QUOTA_ERROR_RE` both fail to match it.
## What Changed
- `CLAUDE_PROVIDER_QUOTA_RE` and `CLAUDE_EXTRA_USAGE_RESET_RE`
(claude-local adapter) accept "you've hit your limit" with no qualifier,
alongside the existing "session"/"usage" wordings, so the run classifies
as `provider_quota` and the reset clock lands in `retryNotBefore`.
- `PROVIDER_QUOTA_ERROR_RE` and `isProviderQuotaRecovery` (recovery
service) accept the same wording, so runs recorded before the adapter
fix (errorCode `adapter_failed` with the limit text in the error) also
route to the quota wait.
- `parseProviderQuotaClockReset` parses the "resets 2:30am (UTC)" clock
shape alongside the existing "try again at" shape.
- `buildStrandedRecoveryEscalationNotice` titles the notice from the
source run's classified error code when one is mapped: `provider_quota`
→ "Error: usage limit reached", `claude_auth_required` → "Error: not
logged in to Claude", `acpx_auth_required` → "Error: agent login
required". The raw failure text stays withheld from the issue thread;
only the server-classified code is surfaced. Unmapped codes keep the
existing seed/cause titles.
## Verification
- `pnpm vitest run
packages/adapters/claude-local/src/server/parse.test.ts
server/src/services/recovery/provider-failure-classification.test.ts
server/src/services/recovery/stranded-notice.test.ts` — 72 tests pass,
including 5 new cases that use the exact new CLI message.
- `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/issue-recovery-actions.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-retry-scheduling.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts` — 189 tests
pass (no reroute regressions from the widened matchers).
- `tsc --noEmit` clean for `@paperclipai/adapter-claude-local` and
`@paperclipai/server`.
## Risks
- Low risk. The regex widenings are additive; every previously matched
wording still matches, and the existing negative test ("Workspace
storage capacity limit reached." stays unclassified) still passes.
- Behavioral shift, intended: an `adapter_failed` run whose error text
is the new limit wording now routes to the silent system-owned quota
wait instead of a board escalation. This matches how the older limit
wordings already behave.
- The notice title change only affects escalations whose source run
carries one of the three mapped error codes; all other notices render
exactly as before.
## Model Used

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The runner package is useful only when the application can start,
observe, and recover a native Codex run safely.
> - Existing direct adapters must keep their current execution and
finalization paths.
> - The application boundary therefore needs additive persistence,
authorization, coordination, and recovery behind an explicit
experimental adapter.
> - This pull request adds that Codex-only boundary without activating
generalized providers, remote environments, or the later task/SDK
surfaces.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**Subsystem affected**
Shared contracts, database persistence, adapter utilities, server
native-runtime services, and the experimental Paperclip Runner adapter.
**Problem or motivation**
The already-landed runner package has a qualified Codex path, but the
application needs durable native-run state, guarded runtime selection,
authenticated coordination, tool security, finalization, and recovery
before the experimental adapter can be exercised safely.
**Proposed solution**
Add a Codex-only `paperclip_runner` application path behind the existing
default-off native-runner setting. Bind native state and coordination to
company/run identity, preserve persisted-run recovery, and leave every
direct adapter on its existing legacy execution path.
**Alternatives considered**
The earlier stack boundary introduced a generalized executor and
remote-environment lifecycle here. That made this PR depend on
implementations in higher PRs and changed reusable sandbox behavior
globally. Those pieces are now deferred together to #12592.
**Roadmap alignment**
ROADMAP.md does not list a conflicting native-runner integration
project. This change adds the application boundary for the existing
Runner architecture.
## What Changed
- Added native run/result/finalization/provider-trace persistence,
shared validators, and idempotent migration/replay coverage.
- Added guarded Codex-only runtime selection, authenticated PRP
coordination, recovery, finalization, and interaction services.
- Added run/company-bound tool-gateway authorization, credential
redaction, SSRF protections, and replay-safe behavior.
- Added the explicit `paperclip_runner` adapter behind the default-off
rollout setting.
- Preserved legacy answered-question wake projection and direct-adapter
execution/finalization paths.
- Hardened cancellation so only owned in-memory child processes are
signaled; persisted recycled PIDs/process groups are never trusted.
- Retained the narrow Claude ACPX isolated-context security follow-up
discovered after #12590.
- Deferred the generalized executor, provider ingress, remote lifecycle,
SDK/lab/eval work, release-process changes, and lockfile.
## Verification
- Changed-file delta against `master`: 133 files.
- GitHub Actions is the authoritative verification environment for this
PR.
- Full CI, security, and Greptile review will run on this lowest
unmerged stack PR.
- Local tests/build/typecheck were not run because this checkout is
resource constrained.
- Static diff/reference checks pass, and `pnpm-lock.yaml` is unchanged.
## Risks
- This touches central heartbeat and agent-route code, so legacy
compatibility is the primary risk.
- Runtime selection remains Codex-only and explicit; direct Codex,
Claude, OpenCode, process, HTTP, and plugin adapters remain on their
existing paths.
- Fresh native starts fail closed while the rollout flag is off;
persisted native records remain readable and recoverable.
- Cancellation, company/run binding, tool calls, status decisions, and
completion writes are guarded or replay-safe.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip lets operators give governed tools to AI agents.
> - Connected Apps already support provider OAuth and personal
connection grants.
> - Some providers require one stable callback and do not support
dynamic client registration.
> - Self-hosted Paperclip instances can run at private or changeable
origins.
> - Paperclip Cloud can provide the stable callback while each instance
keeps its durable provider credentials.
> - This pull request adds the instance side of that managed OAuth
protocol and keeps customer-created clients available.
> - The benefit is a safe path to one-click Workspace connections for
hosted and enrolled self-hosted instances.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**Subsystem affected**
Cross-cutting. This change updates the server, Apps UI, shared app
definitions, and connection documentation.
**Problem or motivation**
Some OAuth providers require a pre-registered callback and
provider-owned client. An arbitrary self-hosted Paperclip origin cannot
use that client callback directly. Paperclip ID must also stay limited
to product identity instead of resource authorization.
**Proposed solution**
Use the existing Paperclip Cloud application as the fixed callback
broker. Enroll each instance to an exact origin and separate Ed25519 and
X25519 keys. Bind every request and sealed envelope to the instance,
environment, user, company, provider, profile, and exact scope set.
Store durable provider credentials only in the originating instance
vault.
**Alternatives considered**
Customer-created OAuth clients remain available as the independent
fallback. A generic redirect relay was rejected because it would allow
caller-selected destinations and scopes. Paperclip ID was rejected as
the broker because it is the identity boundary. A new service was
rejected because the existing Cloud application already owns customer
login and the public callback origin.
**Roadmap alignment**
This work extends the shipped MCP Tool Gateway and Apps milestone. It
also supports the Connected Apps and Cloud deployments roadmap items.
Companion Cloud implementation:
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/pull/312
The duplicate search found no related open Paperclip PR or issue.
## What Changed
- Add a `paperclip_cloud_connector` client with signed requests, exact
profile and scope bindings, and X25519-sealed credential handling.
- Add explicit self-hosted enrollment with owner-only instance key
storage and exact HTTPS origins.
- Route managed Google Workspace setup through Paperclip Cloud and
preserve customer-created OAuth clients.
- Keep broker claims retryable until the local vault transaction
commits.
- Keep managed Google per-profile removal local-only to avoid
client-wide provider revocation.
- Add setup status to the Connections page and retain the Paperclip ID
names as compatibility aliases.
- Document the trust boundaries, enrollment, callback, refresh, removal,
and rollout flows.
## Verification
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared exec vitest run
src/app-definitions.test.ts`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/services/paperclip-cloud-connector.test.ts
src/services/paperclip-cloud-connector-enrollment.test.ts`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts -t 'brokered Gmail
OAuth|brokered OAuth state'`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/pages/apps/Connections.test.tsx`
- `pnpm check:token-gates`
- `pnpm build`
- The full stable test runner also reproduced existing macOS workspace,
skill-discovery, and listener fixture failures outside the changed
paths. GitHub Linux CI is the authoritative full-suite result.
## Risks
- The managed flow depends on
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/pull/312. Real provider
profiles stay disabled until Cloud deploys that protocol and the
provider approves the managed client.
- A Cloud outage blocks new authorization and refresh. Existing access
tokens continue to work until expiry.
- Managed Google profile removal only deletes the local grant. This
avoids invalidating the user's other profiles that share the managed
Google client.
- Legacy `paperclip_id_connector` records require a reconnect after
their current access tokens expire. Old Paperclip ID keys and refresh
tokens are not sent to Paperclip Cloud.

work.

providers.
> - The current production runtime supports Codex but cannot execute
OpenCode sessions.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**Subsystem affected**
Cross-cutting: packages/paperclip-runner and the Codex-local adapter
configuration contract.
**Problem or motivation**
Paperclip Runner has provider-neutral contracts, but the production
backend factory cannot start a qualified OpenCode session. This blocks
OpenCode from using the durable runner path.
**Proposed solution**
Add the qualified OpenCode app-server proxy, driver, MCP bridge,
backend, fixtures, and factory wiring. Keep existing Codex behavior
unchanged.
**Alternatives considered**
Keeping OpenCode only on the direct adapter path would avoid this
runtime work, but it would not provide durable runner recovery or
normalized provider events.
**Roadmap alignment**
ROADMAP.md does not list a conflicting provider-runtime project. This
change extends the existing Paperclip Runner architecture.
## What Changed
- Added the qualified OpenCode app-server proxy and input queue.
- Added collaboration-mode and provider-event normalization.
- Added the OpenCode MCP bridge and native session backend.
- Added strict fixtures and focused unit coverage.
- Added only the package exports and adapter configuration required by
this runtime.
- Kept deferred SDK, lab, eval, and public package surfaces out of this
change.
## Verification
- GitHub Actions is the authoritative verification environment for this
PR.
- Run the package type checks and focused OpenCode tests in CI.
- Run repository typecheck, test, build, security, and policy gates
through the stack-aware workflow.
- Local tests were not run because this checkout is resource
constrained.
## Risks
- OpenCode protocol changes could affect event normalization or
recovery.
- The driver fails closed on malformed input and unsupported runtime
behavior.
- Existing Codex selection remains unchanged unless the stored provider
is OpenCode.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public issue exists for this bug. A GitHub search found no duplicate
or related pull request.
**What happened?**
A fresh `npx paperclipai@canary onboard` command completed onboarding.
The server then failed to start. Node could not resolve `acpx` from the
vendored Paperclip runner.
**Expected behavior**
The server should start after onboarding from a fresh npm cache and a
temporary data directory.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run `npx paperclipai@canary onboard --data-dir "$(mktemp -d
/tmp/paperclip-canary.XXXXXX)"`.
2. Select Quickstart.
3. Start Paperclip.
4. Observe `ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND` for `acpx`.
**Paperclip version or commit**
`paperclipai@2026.831.0-canary.6`
**Deployment mode**
Other: local trusted Quickstart through `npx`.
**Installation method**
npm through `npx`.
**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Codex.
**Database mode**
Embedded PGlite.
**Access context**
Board operator during onboarding.
**Node.js version**
Node.js 26.4.0.
**Operating system**
macOS.
**Relevant logs or output**
```shell
Cannot find package 'acpx' imported from .../node_modules/@paperclipai/server/dist/vendor/paperclip-runner/drivers/acpx/codex-runtime-adapter.js
```
**Relevant config (if applicable)**
No custom configuration was required.
**Additional context**
The published adapter utilities contain a nested `acpx@0.12.0`. Node
cannot resolve that nested package from the sibling vendored runner.
Installing `acpx@0.13.1` at the clean package root makes the failing
runner import succeed.
**Privacy checklist**
The log excerpt contains no user path, token, company name, or other
private value.
## What Changed
- Added `acpx@0.13.1` as a bundled server runtime dependency.
- Added a version-specific patch check for the ACPX versions used by the
server and adapter utilities.
- Added release-package coverage for the server ACPX bundle.
## Verification
- `pnpm test:release-registry` passed 98 tests.
- `node --test scripts/acpx-patch-packaging.test.mjs` passed 12 tests.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/server-package-build-script.test.ts` passed 4
tests.
- `node --test scripts/release-package-map.test.mjs` passed 12 tests.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed.
- A clean extracted server tarball contained the patched `acpx@0.13.1`
runtime.
- The previously failing vendored runner module imported from that clean
tarball.
- The repository-wide test suite was stopped before completion at the
maintainer's request because it takes too long for this urgent packaging
fix.
## Risks
- Risk is low.
- The server tarball grows because it now contains ACPX and its
production dependencies.
- The release stager now uses a version-specific marker to verify the
ACPX patch.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The hidden native coordinator already computes a run-scoped semantic
tool projection.
> - The durable Codex backend now accepts and enforces that projection.
> - The server did not include the projection in its `run.prepare`
command.
> - Codex therefore received no production semantic tools even when the
server authorized them.
> - This pull request adds the deterministic wire projection and sends
it to runnerd.
> - The benefit is one fail-closed authorization catalog from the server
through Codex.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #12384
**What existing behavior does this improve?**
This improves the existing flagged Paperclip Runner Codex path.
**Current behavior**
The server creates a run-scoped list of authorized read tools. It does
not pass that list to runnerd, so the production Codex session starts
with no tools.
**Proposed behavior**
The server maps the authorized definitions to the versioned runner
contract. It computes a cross-language catalog digest. It includes that
immutable contract in `run.prepare`.
**Reason and benefit**
Runnerd and the server now enforce the same catalog identity. Unknown,
duplicate, changed, or malformed tool contracts fail before Codex can
use them.
**Breaking changes**
None. Direct adapters are unchanged. A native run with an empty server
projection still starts with no dynamic tools.
## What Changed
- Add a deterministic semantic-definition to runner-authorization
projection.
- Match the Rust canonical digest with a shared test vector.
- Include the server coordinator projection in the native Codex
`run.prepare` command.
- Extend the native Codex vertical slice to require and execute a
semantic tool.
- Verify the production prepare payload in a host-independent server
test.
## Verification
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner test:typescript` (354
tests pass)
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-codex-runner.test.ts`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm build`
- The embedded-Postgres vertical slice is present for CI. This local
host reports that embedded Postgres is unavailable, so Vitest skips that
host-dependent test locally.
- Confirmed that the PR changes 7 files against
`runner-codex-durable-tools`.
- Confirmed that `pnpm-lock.yaml` is unchanged.
## Risks
The main risk is a catalog digest mismatch between TypeScript and Rust.
Both implementations use canonical JSON. They share the same fixed
digest vector. Runnerd also recomputes the digest and rejects a
mismatch.
The rollout flag and the existing native runtime selection rules remain
unchanged.
## Model Used
OpenAI Codex with GPT-5 and repository tool use.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The experimental Paperclip Runner can execute a guarded Codex run
and persist provider-neutral events.
> - The task page still reads direct-adapter transcripts and cannot
present those native events.
> - Structured runner questions must also use the existing task
interaction experience.
> - Runtime selection must use the persisted run mode, not an adapter
name or a current feature flag.
> - This pull request projects native events and questions into the
existing task thread.
> - Direct adapters keep their existing transcript, composer,
interaction, and finalization paths.
> - The benefit is a complete native Codex task thread without a
behavior change for existing adapters.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #12202. This pull request replaces that stale implementation on
current `master`.
**What happened?**
The server persists native runner events and structured input requests.
The task page only consumes direct-adapter transcripts. A native run
therefore cannot present a complete transcript, usage, or question flow
through the normal task experience.
**Expected behavior**
Native runs project persisted provider-neutral events into the existing
task thread. Native structured questions use the existing interaction
card. Direct adapters retain their current behavior.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Enable the experimental runner.
2. Start a native Codex run that emits progress, usage, a structured
question, and a final reply.
3. Open the task page.
4. Observe that the direct-adapter transcript path cannot project the
native event records.
**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at `67f9867bc`.
## What Changed
- Add the canonical structured-question validator and shared contract
exports.
- Materialize native input requests as existing task interactions.
- Validate native answers and deliver them through the durable
question-response receipt.
- Resume the original PRP request with an idempotent `request.resolve`
command.
- Project native messages, tool activity, cumulative usage, and final
replies into the existing transcript model.
- Propagate persisted `runtimeMode` to the task page and select native
handling only for `runtimeMode: "native"`.
- Expire pending interactions through the shared issue service on every
terminal transition, including decisions, stalled reviews, tree control,
and pipeline retry cleanup.
- Queue native run cancellation while a transaction is open and execute
it only after the owning transaction commits.
- Keep nonterminal and non-runner issue paths on their existing service
call shapes and behavior.
## Verification
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` — passed, including the
Rust runner release build and protocol/catalog drift gates.
- Focused native-thread and lifecycle suites — 18 files and 481 tests
passed during review.
- `issue-execution-policy-routes.test.ts` — 19/19 passed after the final
transactional-queue expectation update.
- `issue-agent-mutation-ownership-routes.test.ts` — 87/87 passed in the
final isolated compatibility rerun.
- GitHub Actions — policy, build, canary, typecheck/release registry, 5
serialized server shards, 8 general-test shards, 3 browser shards, and
both aggregate gates passed on `7793f3193`.
- Security — Snyk, Socket Project Report, Socket PR Alerts, and
Superagent passed.
- Greptile — 5/5 on `7793f3193`; all actionable review threads resolved.
- `git diff --check` — passed.
- Diff against `master`: 44 files.
## Compatibility Boundary
- Native transcript polling only runs when the persisted run reports
`runtimeMode: "native"`.
- Missing or legacy runtime modes continue through
`useLiveRunTranscripts`.
- Legacy questions keep the existing optional free-text choice.
- Native closed select sets can suppress that legacy fallback.
- Terminal cleanup uses the same issue service for native and legacy
interactions; only a bound native question schedules a native run
cancellation.
- Native cancellation happens after transaction commit, so failed or
rolled-back writes do not cancel a still-valid run.
- The durable delivery service checks the original native request before
it considers a continuation run.
- This pull request adds no migration, dependency, workflow, manifest,
or lockfile change.
## Risks
The main risk is routing a direct-adapter task through native handling
or changing terminal issue behavior. The implementation selects the
native path only from persisted runtime facts, retains the existing
nonterminal call shape, and schedules native cancellation only for a
validated bound native question after commit. Focused and
repository-wide tests cover both paths. Native requests remain bound to
the company, issue, run, and agent; answers are validated, durable, and
idempotent across reconnects.
## Model Used
OpenAI Codex, GPT-5 family. The client does not expose the exact
deployment ID or context window. Agentic reasoning, tool use, and code
execution were enabled.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The task-drain service controls when task execution can start and
stop.
> - The service had compensation paths for states that its validators or
recovery process already handle.
> - These paths added rollback state and a stuck-claim marker without
improving normal drain behavior.
> - This pull request removes the unreachable TTL clamp, audit rollback,
generation counter, and double-fault marker.
> - The result keeps input validation, audit ordering, atomic release,
and orphan recovery.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What existing behavior does this improve?**
The task-drain service and its routes manage drain state, audit rows,
and execution locks.
**Subsystem affected**
server/ — REST API and orchestration services.
**Current behavior**
The service clamps a validated TTL value. The routes mutate drain state
before audit writes and then restore state after a failed write. Claim
release also tracks a second durable-write failure with an in-memory
marker.
**Proposed behavior**
The validator remains the single TTL policy. The routes write audit rows
before they mutate drain state. Claim release logs a failed write and
lets the orphan reaper release the issue lock.
**Reason and benefit**
The removed paths cannot handle a valid API request that reaches them.
The rollback can lose the original start time. The marker can keep a
drain non-quiescent until process restart. The simpler flow keeps state
consistent and uses the existing recovery path.
**Breaking changes**
None to the public API. A failed claim release keeps the issue lock
until the next orphan-reaper cycle.
## What Changed
- Remove the service-layer TTL clamp because the shared validator
rejects values above the limit.
- Write task-drain audit rows before drain mutation and remove the
rollback helpers.
- Remove the rollback generation counter and its unused state.
- Remove double-fault stuck-claim tracking and keep the atomic release
path.
- State that the quiescent flag describes work in this process.
- Keep the orphan reaper as the recovery path after a failed claim
release.
## Verification
- Run `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server test
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-task-drain-admission-release.test.ts`.
- Run `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server test
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-task-drain.test.ts`.
- Run `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server test
server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-routes.test.ts`.
- Run `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server test
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-scheduling-suppression.test.ts`.
- Run `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server test
server/src/__tests__/execution-lock-orphan-cleanup.test.ts`.
- The five affected test files pass with 70 tests.
- Confirm the full pull request checks pass before merge.
## Risks
The issue lock remains held until the orphan reaper runs after a failed
claim release. This uses the existing recovery path for interrupted
runs. The change does not alter the public API or database schema.
## Model Used
OpenAI Codex, GPT-5, 400K context window, tool use and code execution.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Apps give those agents governed access to external tools.
> - Provider catalogs must match each provider's current protocol and
credential contract.
> - Postman method labels and API-key placement were outdated.
> - Shopify now offers a UCP commerce endpoint that needs a managed
agent-profile argument.
> - This pull request updates both providers and documents the complete
connection-authoring workflow.
> - The benefit is accurate setup, safer runtime defaults, and a
repeatable provider review process.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #11965
This is stack 10 of 11. It depends on stack 9 and preserves the final
catalog work recovered from #11965.
Related: #5904 covers Shopify skill routing. This pull request covers
the Apps connection contract instead.
## What Changed
- Update Postman hosted MCP methods, capability choices, default
selection, and bearer-token placement.
- Add Shopify UCP commerce and Storefront compatibility methods with
public-store prerequisites.
- Inject the reviewed Shopify UCP agent profile at runtime and remove
that managed field from user input schemas.
- Classify Shopify checkout completion and cancellation as destructive
actions.
- Expand the connection authoring runbook from provider research through
verification and pull request handoff.
- Add focused shared, server, and UI coverage.
- Make the approved-execution waiter phase-aware so slow preparation
cannot consume the provider execution timeout and grace period.
- Settle legacy pre-execute-on-approve requests and invocations as
failed, clear their stale idempotency key, and allow a fresh governed
approval instead of leaving work stuck in `executing`.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/app-definitions.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts
ui/src/pages/apps/AppsConnect.test.tsx -t
"Postman|Shopify|normalizeConnectionMethodConfig|classifyRisk"` (16
passed)
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/services/approved-execution-wait.test.ts` (4 passed)
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/tool-gateway.test.ts -t
"enforces policy, approvals, retries, rate limits, and company
boundaries for connected remote MCP calls"` (1 passed)
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/tool-gateway-service.test.ts` (21 passed; includes
legacy approval settlement and fresh-approval recovery)
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- `pnpm check:token-gates`
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm build`
## Risks
- Shopify UCP calls now include a Paperclip-managed agent profile that
overrides caller input at the same path.
- Postman EU credentials now use the hosted MCP server's bearer-token
contract instead of the general REST API header.
- The catalog generator and checked-in definitions change together to
prevent regeneration drift.
- Approved execution preparation has an explicit two-minute bound;
provider execution retains its own 65-second timeout and persistence
grace starting from durable provider start.
- Legacy approvals created before execute-on-approve are intentionally
terminalized and must be requested again under the current signed
contract.
> I checked `ROADMAP.md`. This provider update does not duplicate
planned core work. The related open Shopify PR addresses skill routing,
not Apps connections.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Connection intents need secure provider implementations to complete
setup.
> - Some providers use managed OAuth or external credential brokers.
> - Those tokens must stay out of durable Paperclip state and fail
closed when refresh fails.
> - This pull request adds managed connector backends and the required
storage contract.
> - The benefit is safer provider setup with governed credential
lifecycles.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #11965
This is stack 8 of 11. It depends on stack 7 and replaces another
reviewable part of #11965.
## What Changed
- Add managed Google Workspace and external connector backends.
- Add Vercel Connect support without storing provider bearer tokens.
- Add replay-safe migration 0232 and its generated snapshot.
- Fail closed and clear stale token bindings when organization OAuth
refresh needs reauthorization.
## Verification
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts`
- Result: 194 tests passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db check:migrations`
- `pnpm build`
- `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/server
server/src/services/remote-url-credentials.test.ts` (5 passed, including
URL userinfo vault extraction)
## Risks
- Broker metadata errors can block provider setup.
- OAuth refresh failure disables the shared organization connection
until reauthorization.
- Migration 0232 is generated, ordered after 0231, and safe to replay.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for

> - Agents need a governed way to request app connections during issue
work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #11965
This is stack 7 of 11. It depends on stack 6 and replaces another
reviewable part of #11965.
## What Changed
- Add connection intent types, validation, service logic, and routes.
- Add agent runtime tools and CLI support for connection requests.
- Add issue-thread interaction support for connection intents.
- Add runtime, route, adapter, and contract tests.
- Hold the final resolved-continuation row lock through asynchronous
adapter preparation until an actual process spawn, so parking or
reassignment cannot cross that boundary.
- Report Hermes Gateway's first remote run request through the shared
dispatch hook so the resolved-intent lock is released at the true
dispatch boundary.
- Revalidate the addressed user's live non-viewer membership and
connection-management authority for every intent mutation, including
OAuth completion.
## Verification
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`

- Result: 176 tests passed.

"addressed-user mutation"` (1 passed)
- `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/server
server/src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts -t "binds OAuth
callback completion to the initiating board session"` (1 passed)
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/hermes-paperclip-adapter test --
src/gateway/server/execute.test.ts` (23 passed; includes dispatch-hook
ordering and exactly-once coverage)
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/hermes-paperclip-adapter typecheck`
## Risks
- A malformed intent could create an unusable operator request.
- Validators and company checks reject invalid or cross-company
requests.
- The final continuation gate holds the issue row lock through adapter
preparation until process or remote dispatch; later operator changes use
the normal active-run interruption path.
- The change does not add a database migration.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - External tools need explicit identity and access boundaries.
> - Shared connection credentials cannot represent every user-scoped use
case.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #11965
This is stack 3 of 11. It depends on stack 2 and replaces another
reviewable part of #11965.
## What Changed
- Add company and user connection grants.
- Add delegated identity and membership rules.
- Synchronize database, shared, server, and UI contracts.
- Register the grant-member replacement route in the OpenAPI surface in
the same layer that mounts it.
- Add migration 0231 with replay-safe guards and coverage.
## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts` (5 passed)
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db check:migrations`
- `pnpm build`
## Risks
- Incorrect grant selection could expose the wrong credential scope.
- The service enforces company and subject boundaries before credential
use.
- Migration 0231 is generated, ordered after 0230, and safe to replay.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #11965
This is stack 2 of 11. It depends on stack 1 and replaces another
reviewable part of #11965.
## What Changed
- Improve remote tool gateway connection behavior.
- Add clearer app setup, test, and recovery states.
- Add focused server and UI tests for the new paths.
- Keep the diff isolated from later identity and catalog work.
- Stabilize DNS-pinned remote HTTP protocol fixtures and the
managed-runtime public-origin fixture for this independently tested
layer.
## Verification
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run

- `pnpm test:run`
- `pnpm check:token-gates`
- `pnpm build`
## Risks
- Gateway errors now surface through new user-facing states.
- A stale connection can require a new setup attempt.
- The change does not add a database migration.
- The injected HTTP transport and public URL are test-only fixtures;
production DNS pinning and runtime behavior are unchanged.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #11965
This is stack 1 of 11. It replaces the first reviewable part of #11965.
## What Changed
- Add guarded remote MCP setup and credential handling.
- Add PostHog OAuth and API key connection methods.
- Add focused server, shared contract, and UI coverage.
- Keep the migration replay-safe and idempotent.
- Give the late-close security regression the same 10-second CI headroom
as the adjacent real-timer handshake test.
- Synchronize fake-timer handshake tests at the exact ensure-session
boundary so real filesystem setup cannot race the fake deadline.
- Drive PTY overflow coverage only after listener registration so
scheduling cannot reorder the test fixture.
## Verification
- pnpm exec vitest run
packages/adapter-utils/src/acpx-engine/execute.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/plugin-worker-manager.test.ts (220 passed; affected
cases also passed five focused stress repetitions)
- `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/adapter-utils/src/acpx-engine/execute.test.ts -t "never leaks a
sandbox-provided value from a late close rejection into logs or the
result"` (1 passed)
- `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/adapter-utils/src/acpx-engine/execute.test.ts -t "never
promotes a late ensureSession resolution|closes a late-resolving real
handle exactly once"` (2 passed)
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db check:migrations`
- `pnpm build`
## Risks
- Remote endpoint validation can reject configurations that previously
passed without checks.
- OAuth configuration errors can block setup until the operator corrects
the provider settings.
- The migration uses guarded statements so repeated execution is safe.
- The test-only synchronization changes do not affect runtime behavior;
they remove filesystem/fake-clock and listener-registration races
observed under parallel CI load.

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The server admits agent work through heartbeat scheduling and
execution paths
> - Operators need to stop new work before maintenance or a graceful
shutdown
> - A process restart alone does not provide a reusable admission
control primitive
> - This pull request adds an instance API that holds new task admission
and reports process quiescence
> - The benefit is a small, auditable control that lets operators wait
for active work without a restart
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**Problem or motivation**
Operators cannot hold new task admission without restarting the
Paperclip process. A restart can interrupt maintenance flows and does
not provide a status signal for active work.
**Proposed solution**
Add `GET /instance/task-drain`, `POST /instance/task-drain`, and `DELETE
/instance/task-drain`. The server keeps the drain state in process
memory, applies it to every scheduling suppression path, supports an
optional TTL up to 24 hours, and reports active wake and run counts.
**Alternatives considered**
A timer would clear the drain after its TTL, but it could keep the
Node.js event loop open during shutdown. A database row would add
storage and query work for process-local state. The implementation uses
lazy expiry and process memory instead.
**Roadmap alignment**
The change supports the roadmap goal for enforced outcomes and safe
recovery actions. It does not duplicate a listed roadmap item.
**Additional context**
This is a server and shared-package change. It adds no user interface
and no database migration.
## What Changed
- Add process-local task-drain state with lazy TTL expiry.
- Add task-drain admission suppression to the shared heartbeat resolver.
- Add instance routes to read, start, and stop a task drain.
- Add validation for positive TTL values and the shared 24-hour maximum.
- Add activity records for drain mutations and tests for status, access
control, validation, and suppression.
## Verification
- Run `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/server
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-task-drain.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-scheduling-suppression.test.ts`.
- Run `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared exec tsc --noEmit`.
- Run `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsc --noEmit` and compare
its known pre-existing errors with the base commit.
- Confirm that pull request CI reaches a terminal green state.
## Risks
The drain state exists only in process memory, so a restart clears it.
This behavior matches the process-local design. A drain without a TTL
remains active until an operator calls the delete route. The status
route reads in-memory activity sets and does not query stale database
rows.
## Model Used
OpenAI Codex, GPT-5, extended reasoning with tool use and code
execution. The exact runtime context window is not exposed by the
execution environment.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Paperclip uses adapters to connect agents and model providers to its
control plane
> - The sandbox login panel supports displayed-code login for selected
adapters
> - Grok users need the same login path and a private credential home
for later runs
> - This pull request adds Grok support to the shared device-login path
and preserves the existing Codex path
> - The benefit is one secure login flow for both adapters with
company-scoped credential storage
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**Agent or provider**
Grok Local needs displayed-code login support in the sandbox login
panel.
**Why this adapter is useful**
This change lets users sign in to Grok from the sandbox login panel. It
also gives later Grok runs access to the stored credential.
**How the agent is invoked**
The Grok local adapter uses its login command through the shared
displayed-code login flow. Later runs receive the managed home through
`GROK_HOME`.
**Additional context**
The change uses adapter-scoped login lifecycle handling. It stores the
credential in a company-scoped directory with mode `0700`, and it stores
the credential file with mode `0600`.
## What Changed
- Rename the shared device-login modules to adapter-neutral names.
- Scope the shared login lifecycle to a closed adapter set.
- Return the device-login URL that the provider prints.
- Add the Grok prompt parser, login command, capability, and login panel
entry.
- Store the Grok credential in a private, company-scoped home directory.
- Pass `GROK_HOME` to later Grok runs.
- Add tests for the Grok adapter, the Daytona sandbox provider, the
server login path, and the user interface.
## Verification
- Run `pnpm vitest run
packages/adapters/grok-local/src/server/adapter-auth-promotion.test.ts`.
- Run the Grok adapter package suite.
- Run the Daytona sandbox provider suite.
- Run the server device-login suites.
- Run the user interface suite.
- Confirm the full CI suite passes.
## Risks
The change extends shared login lifecycle code to another adapter. A
regression could affect Codex login. The credential path uses explicit
`chmod` calls to keep the directory at mode `0700` and the file at mode
`0600`.
## Model Used
OpenAI Codex, GPT-5. The runtime used tool calls and code review
support. The runtime did not provide a context-window value.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The server test suites verify agent permissions and route behavior
> - The agent-permissions route suite rebuilt its full module graph for
every test
> - CPU load made that repeated work exceed the test timeout and caused
intermittent failures
> - This pull request loads the route module graph once for the file and
resets each mock before every test
> - The benefit is faster, stable test execution with the same test
coverage and isolation
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What happened?**
`server/src/__tests__/agent-permissions-routes.test.ts` failed
intermittently in continuous integration. The suite reset modules and
re-imported the route module graph for every test. Under CPU load, one
import took seconds instead of milliseconds and caused an expected
response to become an HTTP 500.
**Expected behavior**
The suite should run all 54 cases without intermittent timeout failures.
Each test should keep isolated mock state.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run `npx vitest run
server/src/__tests__/agent-permissions-routes.test.ts`.
2. Repeat the file run under high CPU load.
3. Compare the failure rate and run time before and after this change.
**Paperclip version or commit**
`c4d1af4216f174a92823ca3a20e0717c54371dd5`
**Deployment mode**
Built from source.
**Installation method**
Built from source with pnpm.
**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Not adapter-specific. This change affects a server test suite.
**Database mode**
Not database-related.
## What Changed
- Load the route module graph one time for the describe block with the
existing `hoistModuleGraph` helper.
- Make `createApp` synchronous and read the hoisted graph.
- Remove per-test `vi.resetModules()` and the 26 `vi.doUnmock(...)`
calls.
- Keep stable mock objects and reset each route-facing mock before every
test.
- Keep all 44 `it` blocks and 54 parameterized cases.
## Verification
- `npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/agent-permissions-routes.test.ts`
passes and reports 54 tests.
- `npx tsc --noEmit -p server/tsconfig.json` passes with 0 errors.
- Under 32 concurrent CPU-bound loops, the file passed 15 of 15 runs
after this change, with 54 of 54 cases on each run.
- The same test failed 1 of 15 runs before this change.
- Per-run wall-clock time changed from about 29–34 seconds to about 8–10
seconds.
## Risks
- Low risk. The change affects test setup only.
- The hoisted mock objects keep stable identity, and `beforeEach` resets
every route-facing mock.
- The registration step arms no mock implementations, and the test
adapter still unregisters in a `finally` block.
## Model Used
OpenAI Codex, GPT-5. The runtime provided tool use and code execution.
The runtime did not provide a context window value.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The server tests cover issue routes and execution workspace state
> - The closed-workspace route suite reloads a mocked module graph
before each test
> - CPU contention can bind one test to the real service and hide a 500

> - This pull request loads the mocked graph once and checks exact
success statuses
> - The benefit is a stable suite that detects route failures instead of
accepting them
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What happened?**
The closed-workspace issue route suite reloaded and unmocked the module
graph before each test. Under CPU contention, a route could bind to the
real execution-workspaces service. The request then returned `500`,
while a weak assertion accepted the result.
**Expected behavior**
The suite must use the configured service mocks for every test. Each
success case must assert its exact expected HTTP status.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run the closed-workspace route suite many times in parallel.
2. Use CPU contention during the run.
3. Observe intermittent failures or weak assertions that accept `500`
responses.
**Paperclip version or commit**
Commit `0d5686b942f1d1366112cb922f95e5c8622bb9a6`.
**Deployment mode**
Built from source with the server test runner.
**Installation method**
Built from source.
**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Not adapter-specific.
**Database mode**
Not database-related.
**Additional context**
This pull request relates to
[#11472](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/11472). It does
not change product code.
## What Changed
- Load the mocked service graph once per file with `hoistModuleGraph`.
- Remove the per-test module reset and unmock cycle.
- Assert exact success statuses for the three affected responses.
- Add the missing `refreshReopenPendingConsumption` mock.
- Use one named timeout constant for every `vi.waitFor` call.
- Replace `setImmediate` barriers with fake-timer advances.
## Verification
- `npx vitest run --project @paperclipai/server
server/src/__tests__/issue-closed-workspace-routes.test.ts` passes 12 of
12 tests locally.
- A 200-sample sweep with 20 parallel copies passed with zero failures.
- An independent 100-sample sweep with 20 parallel copies passed with
zero failures.
- `npx tsc --noEmit -p server` reports the same 61 pre-existing errors
with and without this change.
- GitHub Actions must run the full server suite for final verification.
## Risks
Low risk. This pull request changes one test file and does not change
product code. The stricter assertions can expose a real route failure
that the old suite hid.
## Model Used
Codex, GPT-5, tool use and code review assistance. The exact context
window and reasoning mode are not available in this handoff.

work.
> - The adapter layer carries sandbox requests to host processes.
> - The HTTP/2 bridge used one process-wide byte ledger for all routes.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What happened?**
The HTTP/2 bridge used one aggregate byte ledger for retained bytes
across all routes. A busy route could exhaust the shared budget and
force an unrelated route to use file transport.
**Expected behavior**
Each route should protect its own retained bytes. A reset on one HTTP/2
stream should cancel only that stream's host forward.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start the HTTP/2 bridge with multiple sandbox routes.
2. Send enough retained data through one route to reach the aggregate
byte limit.
3. Send a request through a sibling route.
4. Observe that the sibling route can fall back to file transport
because the first route used the shared ledger.
**Paperclip version or commit**
`47639e227e78e3c5e0dd1a3c0e2d792fe86895a3`
**Deployment mode**
Built from source with the adapter-utils and server test suites.
## What Changed
- Bound each host retention site with a fixed local byte limit.
- Limited concurrent live HTTP/2 streams with one built-in stream limit.
- Bound each host forward and response-body read to its own HTTP/2
stream lifetime.
- Removed the process-wide byte ledger, its environment override, its
metrics, and its file-transport fallbacks.
- Added tests for the stream limit, host body budget, and sibling-stream
cancellation.
## Verification
- Run `pnpm vitest run --project adapter-utils`.
- Confirm that 996 adapter-utils tests pass.
- Confirm that `test_live_forward_work_never_passes_the_stream_limit`
passes.
- Confirm that `test_the_host_body_budget_matches_the_stream_limit`
passes.
- Confirm that the sibling-stream cancellation test passes.
- Run `pnpm tsc --noEmit`.
- Confirm that all pull request checks pass.
## Risks
The bridge no longer uses a process-wide byte ledger. A local bound or
stream limit that is too low can reject or delay valid work. The tests
cover the new limits and stream cancellation behavior.
## Model Used
OpenAI GPT-5 Codex. Runtime model ID: GPT-5. The model used code
execution and repository tools. The runtime does not expose the context
window size.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Pull request checks protect the runtime and authorization boundaries
> - The same checks must produce the same result on GitHub and RunsOn
Ubuntu images
> - One runtime test assumed that a shell PID always owns the listening
socket
> - One watchdog test denied issue reads while it tried to test
assignment denial
> - These assumptions caused image-sensitive failures during the AWS
runner canary
> - This pull request tests the production contracts directly
> - The benefit is a reliable CI result across both runner images
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #12350
## What Changed
- Verify stale service ownership through the existing process-group
ownership helper.
- Allow normal issue reads in the watchdog reassignment fixture.
- Assert that the watchdog reassignment reaches and denies the
`tasks:assign` guard.
## Verification
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts
-t "does not reuse a stopped auto-port service port while another
process owns it"`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issue-agent-mutation-ownership-routes.test.ts -t
"still enforces normal assignment guards for watchdog reassignment"`
- Ran the complete issue agent mutation ownership suite six times. All
522 test executions passed.
- Ran the runtime regression case eight times. All eight test executions
passed.
## Risks
- Low risk. This pull request changes test fixtures and assertions only.
- The process-group assertion matches the ownership rule that the
runtime already uses.
- The watchdog fixture still denies `issue:mutate` and `tasks:assign`.
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex with GPT-5.6 (`gpt-5.6-sol`). The model used reasoning,
tool use, and code execution.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - New organizations create their first agent through the onboarding
wizard
> - The wizard does not show provider sign-in when a host credential is
absent or unknown
> - The create step also gives unclear feedback when the provider needs
authentication
> - This pull request adds a safe auth signal and a provider sign-in
step for sandbox drivers
> - The benefit is a clearer onboarding path with no token or account
data in the signal
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**Subsystem affected**
Cross-cutting (server API, shared types, and UI)
**Problem or motivation**
The onboarding wizard can fail when the selected provider needs
authentication. It does not tell the person how to complete sign-in.
**Proposed solution**
Add a status-only provider auth signal. Show the sign-in panel for
sandbox drivers when the signal says `absent` or `unknown`. Apply a
stored Claude login to the new agent and block creation when the adapter
test reports missing authentication.
**Alternatives considered**
The wizard could hide the sign-in panel when the signal read fails. This
would hide a needed action, so this pull request shows the panel when
the signal is unknown.
**Roadmap alignment**
The change supports the roadmap goal for scoped and audited credential
bindings.
**Additional context**
The auth signal returns only `present`, `absent`, or `unknown`. It never
returns a token, identifier, or account name.
## What Changed
- Add `GET /api/companies/:companyId/adapters/:type/auth-signal` with
company and permission checks.
- Add shared auth-signal types and the UI query path.
- Apply a stored Claude login by reference without reading its token.
- Show the provider sign-in panel only for sandbox drivers with
interactive terminal support.
- Block agent creation when the provider test reports missing
authentication.
- Add route, wizard, and end-to-end test coverage.
## Verification
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server test adapter-auth-signal-routes`
passes 50 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui test OnboardingWizard` passes 69 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec tsc --noEmit` exits with code 0.
- The `e2e_shards` lane runs `tests/e2e/onboarding.spec.ts`.
## Risks
The route reads a host-local readiness signal. It returns `unknown` on
read errors and never exposes credential data. The UI may add a sign-in
step when the signal is unavailable.
## Model Used
OpenAI Codex, GPT-5, extended reasoning, tool use, and code execution.
The exact context window was not provided.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is an open source app that helps people manage AI agents
for work.
> - The server provides company-scoped routes for company skills and
their test runs.
> - The authorization tests for these routes fail intermittently in
continuous integration.
> - The failure returns HTTP 500 instead of the expected HTTP 403.
> - The test file resets and rebuilds its module graph before each test.
> - This rebuild imports an unmocked issue service and raises a
TypeError.
> - This pull request loads the module graph once per describe block.
> - The change keeps the test result stable and preserves all 53 tests.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What happened?**
The company-skill test-run authorization tests failed intermittently in
continuous integration. One test returned HTTP 500 instead of HTTP 403.
**Expected behavior**
Each unauthorized request must return HTTP 403. The test file must keep
all 53 tests and skip none.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run `npx vitest run
server/src/__tests__/company-skills-routes.test.ts` before this change.
2. Repeat the run in continuous integration.
3. Observe the intermittent HTTP 500 result in an authorization case.
**Paperclip version or commit**
Commit `651d26a96f6e24811d336759d3e67ff3abb5ec29`.
**Deployment mode**
Built from source. Continuous integration runs the test suite.
**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Not adapter-specific. This issue affects server test module setup.
**Database mode**
Not database-related.
## What Changed
- Load the mocked route module graph once for each describe block.
- Use the existing `hoistModuleGraph` helper, as the cost service test
does.
- Remove twelve per-test `vi.doUnmock` calls and the redundant module
rebuild.
- Keep the change in
`server/src/__tests__/company-skills-routes.test.ts` only.
## Verification
- Run `npx vitest run
server/src/__tests__/company-skills-routes.test.ts`.
- Confirm that 53 tests pass and 0 tests skip.
- Confirm that the diff changes only
`server/src/__tests__/company-skills-routes.test.ts`.
- Confirm that all Paperclip continuous integration checks pass.
## Risks
Low risk. The change affects test setup only. It does not change
production code, route behavior, or assertions.
## Model Used
OpenAI GPT-5 (Codex), exact model ID `gpt-5`, tool use and code
execution enabled. The runtime does not expose the context window size.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A self-hosted install in `authenticated` mode signs users in with
Better Auth, mounted at `/api/auth` over a hand-written Drizzle
`account` table in `packages/db`
> - Better Auth 1.7.0 added a required `issuer` field to that `account`
model, plus a unique index on `(issuer, accountId)`
> - The dependency bump in #11886 changed only `server/package.json` and
the lockfile, so the Drizzle table never grew the column
> - The Drizzle adapter checks the model against the schema on every
write, so `linkAccount` throws and sign-up answers 500 with an empty
body; a fresh install cannot create its first user, and an upgraded
install locks out every existing user
> - This pull request adds the `issuer` column and its unique index, and
migrates the column in with a backfill that covers every existing row
> - The benefit is that sign-up and sign-in work again, on a new install
and after an upgrade
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No existing issue. Describing it inline, following
`.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/bug_report.yml`.
Refs #11886 (the dependency bump that introduced the required field).
Refs #12269 (an earlier attempt at this fix; its backfill covers only
`provider_id = 'credential'`).
**What happened?**
Sign-up fails on a self-hosted install. `POST /api/auth/sign-up/email`
answers HTTP 500 with a zero-byte body. The server log carries:
```
[Better Auth]: The field "issuer" does not exist in the "account" Drizzle schema.
# SERVER_ERROR: [BetterAuthError: The field "issuer" does not exist in the "account" Drizzle schema.]
```
The request writes the `user` row and then fails on the `account` row.
The address is stuck after that: a second sign-up answers 422
`USER_ALREADY_EXISTS`, sign-in answers 401, and password reset answers
400 `RESET_PASSWORD_DISABLED` because the account that would hold the
password does not exist.
An upgraded install is worse. `sign-in/email` matches the credential
account on `account.issuer === 'local:credential'`. Rows written before
the upgrade have no issuer, so every existing user is locked out.
**Expected behavior**
`POST /api/auth/sign-up/email` answers 2xx and writes both the `user`
row and its credential `account` row. `POST /api/auth/sign-in/email`
then answers 2xx and sets a session cookie. An install that upgrades
keeps its existing users.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a server from `master` with
`PAPERCLIP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE=authenticated` against an empty database.
2. `curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:<port>/api/auth/sign-up/email -H
'Content-Type: application/json' -H 'Origin: http://127.0.0.1:<port>'
--data
'{"name":"A","email":"a@example.com","password":"a-long-password"}'`
3. The response is HTTP 500 with an empty body.
**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at 4436cf0. The defect starts at 69e8585 (#11886), which moved
Better Auth from 1.6.28 to 1.7.0.
**Deployment mode**
`authenticated`. `local_trusted` does not sign users in, so it is not
affected. Hosted tenants are not affected either: that path resolves the
actor from a trusted header and never reads `account`.
**Database mode**
Both. Embedded PostgreSQL and external PostgreSQL use the same Drizzle
schema.
**Relevant logs or output**
Reproduced in a test by reverting the schema change:
```
stderr | better-auth-credential-signup.integration.test.ts
[Better Auth]: The field "issuer" does not exist in the "account" Drizzle schema.
AssertionError: expected 500 to be 200
```
## What Changed
- `packages/db/src/schema/auth.ts`: adds `issuer` (text, NOT NULL) to
`authAccounts`, and the `(issuer, account_id)` unique index that mirrors
the index Better Auth declares on the model. The field name, type,
requiredness, and index all come from
`@better-auth/core/dist/db/get-tables.mjs` in 1.7.0.
- `packages/db/src/migrations/0230_better_auth_account_issuer.sql`: adds
the column, backfills every existing row, sets NOT NULL, and creates the
unique index.
- `packages/db/src/migrations/meta/0230_snapshot.json` and
`_journal.json`: regenerated with `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db
generate`.
- `packages/db/src/better-auth-account-issuer-migration.test.ts`: new.
Asserts the schema shape, then rewinds the migration on a real database,
seeds pre-upgrade rows, and re-applies it.
-
`server/src/__tests__/better-auth-credential-signup.integration.test.ts`:
new. Real sign-up and sign-in through the Better Auth mount, against the
real Drizzle schema and a migrated PostgreSQL.
- `cli/src/__tests__/worktree.test.ts`: the worktree seed fixture writes
a credential `account` row, so it now writes `issuer` too.
`server/package.json` and `pnpm-lock.yaml` are untouched. The dependency
is correct; the schema was what was missing.
### The issuer values, and where they come from
Better Auth builds these itself, in
`@better-auth/core/src/db/schema/account.ts`:
```ts
export function createLocalAccountIssuer(providerId: string): string {
return `local:${encodeURIComponent(providerId)}`;
}
export function createOAuthAccountIssuer(providerId: string): string {
return `local:oauth:${encodeURIComponent(providerId)}`;
}
```
Sign-up and sign-in both call `createLocalAccountIssuer("credential")`,
so a credential account is `local:credential`. An OAuth account whose
provider declares no `accountIssuer` of its own is
`local:oauth:<providerId>` — no built-in social provider declares one.
The migration writes exactly those two forms:
```sql
ALTER TABLE "account" ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS "issuer" text;
UPDATE "account"
SET "issuer" = CASE
WHEN "provider_id" = 'credential' THEN 'local:credential'
ELSE 'local:oauth:' || "provider_id"
END
WHERE "issuer" IS NULL;
ALTER TABLE "account" ALTER COLUMN "issuer" SET NOT NULL;
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS "account_issuer_account_id_uq" ON "account" USING btree ("issuer","account_id");
```
Two limits are worth stating plainly. The OAuth branch reproduces
`createOAuthAccountIssuer` for provider ids that need no
percent-encoding, which covers every built-in provider id; a provider id
with a character `encodeURIComponent` would escape would get a slightly
different string. And a generic-OAuth provider that sets `accountIssuer`
explicitly (Okta, Auth0, Keycloak, Slack, Line) uses the real issuer
URL, which this migration cannot know. Neither case can arise on
Paperclip today: `createBetterAuthInstance` configures
`emailAndPassword` only and registers no social or generic-OAuth
provider, so every existing row is a credential row. The OAuth branch is
there so the backfill stays total rather than leaving a NULL that aborts
`SET NOT NULL`.
## Verification
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db check:migrations` — passes.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db typecheck` — passes.
- `packages/db` suite: 30 files, 107 tests, all pass.
- `npx tsc --noEmit` in `server/` — no error in any changed file. (The
wrapped `pnpm typecheck` builds the runner vendor first, which needs
cargo; that toolchain was not available here, so the pre-existing
"cannot find module" errors from the unbuilt workspace packages remain
in the bare run.)
- `node --test scripts/__tests__/run-vitest-stable-shard.test.mjs` —
passes with the new server suite in the file list.
- The two new tests were confirmed to fail without the fix:
- Reverting `packages/db/src/schema/auth.ts` to its `master` content
makes the server test fail with the reported error and `expected 500 to
be 200`.
- Narrowing the backfill to `WHERE "issuer" IS NULL AND "provider_id" =
'credential'` makes the migration test fail with `column "issuer" of
relation "account" contains null values` — the failure mode of #12269.
- End to end against a server built from this branch, started with
`PAPERCLIP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE=authenticated` on embedded PostgreSQL:
- `POST /api/auth/sign-up/email` → 200 with a user and token.
- `POST /api/auth/sign-in/email` → 200 with a session cookie.
- `GET /api/auth/get-session` → 200 with the session.
- The stored row is `issuer = 'local:credential'`, `provider_id =
'credential'`, `account_id = user_id`, and `pg_indexes` lists
`account_issuer_account_id_uq`.
- `scripts/docker-onboard-smoke.sh` was not used as proof: it installs
`paperclipai` from npm inside the container, so it exercises a published
release rather than this branch.
## Risks
- **Migration.** The migration backfills every existing row before `SET
NOT NULL`, so an install that upgrades keeps working and its users keep
signing in. `account` is one row per user per provider, so the
full-table `UPDATE` and the index build are cheap;
`packages/db/src/table-size-estimates.ts` already classes `account` as
small, and `check:migrations` passes with no new safety finding.
- **New unique index.** `(issuer, account_id)` is the key Better Auth
resolves accounts by, so a duplicate would already be a defect. Better
Auth writes one credential account per user keyed on the user id, so the
pair is unique by construction. An install that somehow holds a
duplicate would fail the index build rather than corrupt anything, and
the migration is a single transaction.
- **Orphaned users are not repaired.** An address that hit the broken
window has a `user` row and no `account` row. This migration does not
delete or repair those rows, so that address stays unusable after the
upgrade: sign-up says the user exists, and there is no credential
account to sign in as or reset. Only installs that ran a build
containing #11886 are affected, and the repair — deleting the orphaned
`user` rows — is a judgment call about live data that does not belong in
an automatic migration.
- **Not a behavior change anywhere else.** Only the `account` table
changes. Hosted tenants resolve their actor from a trusted header and
never read it.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Paperclip supports opt-in Sentry error monitoring for server and
browser errors.
> - The hosted image must include the server package when an operator
sets SENTRY_DSN.
> - The server package is an optional peer in the source tree, so the
image did not include it.
> - This pull request installs the declared server package in the hosted
image and checks the result.
> - The benefit is a hosted tenant can send server errors without a
manual package install.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public issue exists for this change.
**What happened?**
The hosted image did not include the declared @sentry/node server
package. A hosted tenant could set SENTRY_DSN, but the server could not
load the package from the image.
**Expected behavior**
The hosted image must include the exact @sentry/node version from
server/package.json. The self-hosted image must remain without this
optional package.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Build or pull the hosted image.
2. Resolve @sentry/node from the server package path.
3. Compare its version with server/package.json.
4. Confirm that the tsx loader path still resolves.
**Paperclip version or commit**
Commit b6ff556a33ebdbe764b7f495951cd59009776608.
**Deployment mode**
Docker hosted image.
## What Changed
- Add a cloud-server-deps Docker stage that installs the declared
@sentry/node version in isolation.
- Copy the isolated package into the cloud image without changing the
production image.
- Add a probe that checks the tsx loader and the resolved Sentry
version.
- Run the probe after the hosted image push in the Docker workflow.
- Add server tests and update the observability documentation.
## Verification
- Run `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/server
server/src/__tests__/cloud-image-sentry.test.ts`.
- Confirm that the changed test passes in CI.
- Confirm that all pull request checks pass.
- Note that the Docker workflow does not run for pull requests. It runs
after a push to master, for configured tags, or after manual dispatch.
## Risks
- Low risk. The production image body stays unchanged.
- The cloud image adds the declared Sentry package and a small
dependency tree.
- The workflow probe fails if the image loses the tsx loader or resolves
a different Sentry version.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The server test suite checks budget and cost routes

## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What happened?**
The costs-service route test rebuilt its full mocked module graph before
every test. Under CPU load, a rebuild sometimes stalled a test past the
15-second timeout.
**Expected behavior**
The test file should load its mocked route graph once for each describe
block while each test keeps isolated mock behavior.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run the costs-service route test under synthetic CPU load.
2. Repeat the file test 30 times.
3. Observe intermittent test timeouts before this change.
**Paperclip version or commit**
The test used the current master branch at the time of this change.
**Deployment mode**
Built from source.
## What Changed
- Add `hoistModuleGraph` to load the mocked route graph once for each
describe block.
- Keep per-test mock setup in `beforeEach` so test isolation stays
unchanged.
- Keep all 17 tests and their assertions.
- Remove the module graph rebuild from the per-test path.
## Verification
- Run `npx vitest run src/__tests__/costs-service.test.ts` from
`server/`.
- Confirm that the file reports 17 tests and zero skipped tests.
- Confirm that 30 runs under the same synthetic CPU load report 0.0%
failure after the change, compared with 10.0% before the change.
- Confirm that mutation checks still fail when each authorization guard
is broken.
## Risks
This change affects test setup only. The main risk is weaker test
isolation if a mock keeps state between tests. Each test still re-arms
its mock behavior in `beforeEach`, and the full assertion set remains.
> For core feature work, check [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md) first and
discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. This bug fix does not add a
core feature.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs: #10869
**What happened?**
An embedded PostgreSQL test fixture stopped its cluster while database
clients still held open connections. The postgres.js driver then
scheduled a deferred write on a dead connection. The write caused an
unhandled error after the test shard reported success.
**Expected behavior**
The fixture closes all live clients for its cluster before it stops the
embedded PostgreSQL cluster. Tests then finish without a deferred write
on a dead connection.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run the database regression test with the embedded PostgreSQL
fixture.
2. Stop the fixture while its database client still has an open
connection.
3. Observe the deferred write and the process exit status.
**Paperclip version or commit**
Branch base: bdd8f1bed. Change head:
93e85d2ba1.
**Deployment mode**
Local dev with the embedded PostgreSQL test fixture.
**Installation method**
Built from source with pnpm.
**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Not adapter-specific. This change covers database test infrastructure.
**Database mode**
Embedded PGlite.
**Additional context**
The change keeps client references weak and keys them by host and port.
It does not retain credentials. It also handles connection URLs that the
driver accepts when the URL parser rejects them.
## What Changed
- Add a registry for live database clients in the database package.
- Close registered clients before the embedded PostgreSQL fixture stops
its cluster.
- Add a regression test for the teardown race.
- Handle driver-compatible URLs that the standard URL parser rejects.
- Add cleanup for the shared route test harness.
## Verification
- Run the full `packages/db` suite.
- Run `tsc --noEmit` in `packages/db`.
- Run the server suite that uses `route-test-harness.ts`.
- Run the teardown regression test five times.
- Confirm that the negative control fails three times.
- Confirm that no shard reports green tests and exits with an error.
## Risks
The registry changes client cleanup for embedded test fixtures. Weak
references limit retained memory in long-lived processes. The registry
uses host and port only, so it does not retain credentials. No
migration, schema, API, telemetry, authentication, or cryptography
change exists.
## Model Used
OpenAI Codex, GPT-5, tool use and code review support, standard
reasoning mode. The implementing engineer supplied the code and
verification results.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The server test suite checks question response delivery and wake
claims
> - One test used wall-clock time and could start a second delivery
under load
> - The second delivery reused one promise resolver and could hang for
15 seconds
> - This pull request uses the injected clock and one resolver for each
wakeup
> - The benefit is a deterministic test that fails at once if a second
wakeup occurs
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What happened?**
The wake-claim lease test slept for 70 milliseconds before it ran the
pending sweep. Under load, the lease could look stale during that
interval. The sweep then started a second delivery. The second delivery
reused one promise resolver, so the test hung until the 15-second suite
timeout.
**Expected behavior**
The test must control the time used by the service. One wakeup must use
one resolver. An unexpected second wakeup must fail at once.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run the question response delivery test under CPU load.
2. Let the test sleep before the pending sweep.
3. Observe that a second delivery can start and the test can reach the
15-second timeout.
**Paperclip version or commit**
Commit `0dd735e53a5cc9f6d3395834b826dfb0b1da2ea9`.
**Deployment mode**
Built from source with the server test suite.
**Installation method**
Built from source.
**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Not adapter-specific (core test issue).
**Database mode**
Not database-related.
**Additional context**
The change affects one test file. It does not change production source
code.
## What Changed
- Drive the test with the service's injected clock.
- Give each wakeup call its own promise resolver.
- Assert that lease renewal advances the last attempt time.
- Assert that the wakeup runs one time and the attempt count stays at 1.
## Verification
- Run `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/services/__tests__/question-response-delivery.test.ts`.
- The changed file reports 29 passing tests.
- Run the changed file 25 times, including 5 runs under CPU load.
## Risks
Low risk. The change affects one test file and test setup only. It does
not change production behavior.
## Model Used
OpenAI GPT-5, exact runtime model ID supplied by the Paperclip agent
environment, tool use and code review assistance.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A company is the top-level container, and the company General page
holds its settings
> - Two of those settings did almost nothing: the brand color only
tinted the generated company icon, and the attachment size limit sat
under the deployment-level `PAPERCLIP_ATTACHMENT_MAX_BYTES` cap that
already bounded every upload
> - A setting that changes one icon hue, and a setting that can only
lower a limit the operator already set, are not worth the page space or
the code that carries them
> - This pull request deletes both settings from the UI, the validators,
the API contract, the server, and the database
> - With the deployment cap as the only limit left, the message a person
sees when an upload is rejected has to name that limit in terms they can
act on, so the raw byte count becomes a human-readable size
> - The benefit is a shorter company General page for every deployment,
one attachment limit instead of two, and less code between an upload and
its ceiling
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No existing issue. The description below follows
`.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/enhancement.yml`.
**What existing behavior does this improve?**
The company General page (`/company/settings`), the `PATCH
/api/companies/{companyId}` and `PATCH
/api/companies/{companyId}/branding` request contracts, and the
attachment upload limit on task, case, and company-import uploads.
**Subsystem affected**
Cross-cutting: `ui/`, `server/`, `packages/shared`, `packages/db`.
**Current behavior**
The company General page shows an "Appearance" section with three
controls: Logo, Brand color, and Attachment size limit. The brand color
is a hex value that feeds one thing — the hue of the generated company
pattern icon. Companies that never set one already get a hue derived
from the company name. The attachment size limit is a per-company byte
count stored on `companies.attachment_max_bytes`. Every upload path
clamps it against the deployment-level `PAPERCLIP_ATTACHMENT_MAX_BYTES`
cap, so the per-company value can only lower a limit the operator
already chose.
**Proposed behavior**
The Appearance section keeps the Logo control only. The company pattern
icon always derives its hue from the company name. Every attachment path
reads the deployment cap directly, so `PAPERCLIP_ATTACHMENT_MAX_BYTES`
is the single limit. An upload rejected by that limit says so in human
units — "File is larger than the 10 MB limit" rather than a raw byte
count. The `companies.brand_color` and `companies.attachment_max_bytes`
columns are dropped, and both fields leave the company API contract.
**Reason and benefit**
Both settings ask an operator to make a decision that changes almost
nothing. The brand color moves one icon hue on a page that also lets you
upload a real logo, which overrides the icon entirely. The attachment
limit reads as a real control but cannot raise anything, so it is a
second place to look when an upload is rejected. Removing both shortens
the page every deployment sees, removes a company-scoped read from the
task attachment upload path, and leaves one attachment limit to reason
about instead of two.
**Breaking changes**
The company API responses no longer include `brandColor` or
`attachmentMaxBytes`, and `GET /api/invites/{token}` no longer includes
`companyBrandColor`. `PATCH /api/companies/{companyId}/branding` is
strict, so a request that sends `brandColor` now returns 400; the
non-strict `PATCH /api/companies/{companyId}` schema strips it. Company
packages exported by older versions still import: the portability
company manifest schema is non-strict, so the retired keys are stripped
and ignored rather than rejected. Companies that stored a brand color
lose it — their icon reverts to the name-derived hue that every company
without a color already used.
## What Changed
- Removed the "Brand color" and "Attachment size limit" fields from the
company General page, along with their state, dirty checks, save
payload, and Save-button gating.
- Removed `brandColor` and `attachmentMaxBytes` from
`createCompanySchema`, `updateCompanySchema`, and
`updateCompanyBrandingSchema`, and deleted the now-orphaned
`DEFAULT_COMPANY_ATTACHMENT_MAX_BYTES` and
`MAX_COMPANY_ATTACHMENT_MAX_BYTES` constants.
- Removed both fields from the `Company` type, the portability manifest
type and schema, and the `companiesApi.update` payload allowlist.
- Dropped `brandColor` from `CompanyPatternIcon` and its callers, so the
icon hue always comes from the company name. Deleted the now-unused
`hexToHue` helper and the now-unused `pickTextColorForSolidBg` export.
- Stopped emitting `brandColor` from the company service selection and
from the invite-summary and invite-branding payloads in
`server/src/routes/access.ts`.
- Replaced `normalizeIssueAttachmentMaxBytes` with the deployment cap:
task attachments, case attachments, and company import now use
`MAX_ATTACHMENT_BYTES` directly. The helper is deleted.
- Added `formatAttachmentSize()` next to `MAX_ATTACHMENT_BYTES` and
routed every over-limit message through it, so a rejected upload names
the limit in human units instead of raw bytes: `Image exceeds 10485760
bytes` becomes `Image is larger than the 10 MB limit`. Enforcement is
unchanged — the same single cap, the same multer limits, the same status
codes and response shapes.
- Added migration
`0229_drop_company_brand_color_and_attachment_max_bytes.sql` and removed
both columns from the Drizzle `companies` schema.
- Kept legacy imports working: the portability company manifest schema
is non-strict, so older packages carrying the retired keys still import
with the keys ignored.
- Updated the skill API reference and the implementation spec, and
pruned the token-extraction allowlist entries that the removed code made
stale.
## Verification
Commands run from the repository root:
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck` — pass
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db typecheck` — pass (includes
`check:migrations`, which validates the new migration number and journal
entry)
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` — pass
- server typecheck via `node_modules/.bin/tsc --noEmit` in `server/` —
pass. `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` could not run
locally because it builds the Rust runner first and `cargo` is not
installed on this machine; the TypeScript step it wraps is the command
above.
- `npx vitest run packages/shared/src/validators/company.test.ts` — 6
passed
- `npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/company-portability.test.ts` — 90
passed
- `npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/attachment-types.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/assets.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-attachment-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-portability.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/cases-routes.test.ts` — 165 passed (the
human-readable limit messages)
- `npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/company-branding-route.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-attachment-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/invite-summary-route.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/openclaw-invite-prompt-route.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/companies-route-cross-company-authz.test.ts` — all
passed
- `npx vitest run cli/src/__tests__/company.test.ts
cli/src/__tests__/company-delete.test.ts` — 27 passed
- `npx vitest run` in `ui/` — 4425 passed, 1 pre-existing failure
unrelated to this change (`OnboardingWizard.test.tsx` "renders instead
of throwing when the browser denies storage access", which also fails on
`master`)
- `npx vitest run` in `server/` — see the note below
- `node scripts/check-token-gates.mjs` — no new violations; the only
reported violations are the pre-existing `PillGuy.tsx` ones present on
`master`
New tests added:
- `packages/shared/src/validators/company.test.ts` — the create and
update schemas strip the retired keys, the strict branding schema
rejects `brandColor`, and the portability manifest schema accepts a
legacy entry carrying both keys and drops them.
- `server/src/__tests__/company-branding-route.test.ts` — `PATCH
/api/companies/{companyId}/branding` returns 400 for `brandColor` and
does not call the company service.
- `server/src/__tests__/company-portability.test.ts` — a legacy package
that declares `brandColor` and `attachmentMaxBytes` imports
successfully, and neither key reaches `companies.create`.
- `server/src/__tests__/issue-attachment-routes.test.ts` — the effective
task attachment limit is the deployment cap, and the route no longer
loads the company to size an upload.
- `server/src/__tests__/attachment-types.test.ts` —
`formatAttachmentSize()` renders the default cap as `10 MB`, keeps one
decimal place for fractional sizes and drops a trailing `.0`, falls back
to KB and bytes for small caps, steps up to GB, and never emits `NaN`
for a degenerate input.
- `server/src/__tests__/assets.test.ts` — the asset-image and
company-logo routes both return the human-readable limit message on an
over-cap upload.
## Merge with master
`master` moved while this was open, and the merge needed two
resolutions:
- **`ui/src/pages/CompanySettings.tsx`.** #12243 reworded the
user-facing
copy from "company" to "organization", and that rewording landed inside
the "Brand color" and "Attachment size limit" hints — the two fields
this change deletes. Both fields are removed, so the conflicted block is
dropped whole. The Logo field and every other copy change from #12243
are
kept.
- **Migration renumbered 0228 -> 0229.** #12307 landed
`0228_nasty_grim_reaper`, so this migration is now
`0229_drop_company_brand_color_and_attachment_max_bytes`. Its snapshot
is
rebuilt from master's `0228_snapshot.json` with only the two `companies`
columns removed, and `meta/_journal.json` is master's journal plus a
single `idx: 229` entry. `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db
check:migrations`
passes.
The snapshot was rebuilt by hand rather than taken from `drizzle-kit
generate`, because master's `0228_snapshot.json` has drifted from
master's
own schema: `issue_question_response_deliveries.error_count` is created
by
master's 0228 SQL but missing from its snapshot, and the snapshot still
carries `decision_archive_notification_outbox.error_count`. Regenerating
folds both into this migration, and the resulting `ADD COLUMN
error_count`
would fail on a fresh database where master's 0228 already created that
column. Rebuilding from master's snapshot leaves that drift exactly
where
it is and keeps this migration to the two column drops. The drift is
pre-existing on master and is not addressed here.
## Risks
- **The migration is a destructive column drop.**
`0229_drop_company_brand_color_and_attachment_max_bytes.sql` removes
`companies.brand_color` and `companies.attachment_max_bytes`. It is safe
because both features are removed in the same change and nothing reads
either column after it. The statements use `DROP COLUMN IF EXISTS`,
matching the convention of the recent drop migrations in this
repository. The drop is not reversible: a downgrade after this migration
loses any stored values.
- **Stored brand colors are lost.** A company that had set a color now
renders the name-derived icon hue that every company without a color
already used. No other surface changes, and an uploaded logo still
overrides the icon.
- **API response shape narrows.** `brandColor` and `attachmentMaxBytes`
leave the company payloads, and `companyBrandColor` leaves the invite
summary payload. A client reading those fields now sees `undefined`. The
bundled UI and CLI are updated in this change.
- **Legacy imports are covered.** Packages exported by older versions
still carry both keys. The manifest schema is non-strict, so the keys
are stripped rather than rejected, and a test locks that in.
- **The over-limit message strings changed.** Anything matching on the
old `... exceeds N bytes` text — a test, a script, or a client that
string-matches `body.error` — needs updating. The status codes (422) and
response shapes are unchanged, so structured clients are unaffected.
- **Attachment limits can only widen.** A deployment that had lowered a
company below the deployment cap now allows uploads up to the cap for
that company. Lower `PAPERCLIP_ATTACHMENT_MAX_BYTES` if a smaller
ceiling is needed.
- **Storybook visual baselines shift** for the `CompanyPatternIcon`
matrix story, because those fixtures had brand colors. That workflow
runs only on a PR labeled `storybook-visual`, so it does not gate this
PR; regenerate the baselines if the label is added.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - An instance can turn on the `enableManagedSandboxOnly` feature,
which hides the local environment and runs every agent in the
platform-managed environment
> - That feature already gated the environment pickers, the onboarding
wizard, and the server-side run selection, but many other screens still
showed absolute paths on the execution host and still let the user pick
an execution engine
> - On such an instance those controls name a filesystem the user cannot
reach; a path written there is stored and then ignored, which reads as a
broken control
> - This pull request hides the remaining host-path and execution-engine
surfaces behind the same feature, adds a server rule that refuses a
project-workspace path write while the feature is on, and closes a
related route gap in the isolated-workspace pages
> - The benefit is that a managed instance shows no host path and no
folder picker anywhere, and a write that carries a path now fails with a
clear message instead of being silently discarded
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public issue exists. The description below follows
`.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/enhancement.yml`.
**What existing behavior does this improve?**
The `enableManagedSandboxOnly` instance feature, and the UI surfaces
that show
a host filesystem path: project properties, the new-project dialog, the
project
workspace and execution workspace detail pages, the workspace and task
cards,
plugin local folders, and the agent configuration form with its
per-adapter
fields. It also improves route gating for `enableIsolatedWorkspaces`.
**Subsystem affected**
Cross-cutting (`ui/` and `server/`).
**Current behavior**
When `enableManagedSandboxOnly` is on, the local environment disappears
from the
environment pickers and the server refuses to run an agent on the local
host.
Everything else stays visible. A user still sees:
- the project "Local folder" row, its absolute path, and the
Set/Change/Clear buttons
- the "Local folder" field and its "Choose" folder picker in the
new-project dialog
- the "Local path" field and fact row on a project workspace
- the "Paths" and "Lifecycle commands" groups on an execution workspace
- the working directory on workspace cards, task properties, and runtime
service rows
- the plugin "Local folders" section
- "Working directory (deprecated)", "Command", "Execution engine",
"ACP server command", "ACP state directory", and "Agent instructions
file" in
the agent configuration form
A path typed into any of these names a filesystem no agent on the
instance uses.
The project workspace API also accepts a `cwd` write and stores it.
Separately, `/workspaces`, `/execution-workspaces/*`, and
`/projects/:projectId/workspaces/:workspaceId` render for anyone who
types or
bookmarks the URL, even with `enableIsolatedWorkspaces` off. Only the
sidebar
entry reads that flag.
**Proposed behavior**
With `enableManagedSandboxOnly` on, none of those surfaces render. A
project
whose codebase came from a managed checkout keeps its one-line
"Paperclip-managed folder." label and shows no path. The non-path
controls stay:
repo URL, branch, service URL, port, command output, ACP session mode,
ACP
non-interactive permissions, Codex fast mode, and the sandbox toggles.
The project-workspace create and patch routes, and the nested workspace
on
project create, answer `422` with
"This instance runs agents only in the platform-managed environment;
local
folders are not configurable." when the payload carries a non-null
`cwd`.
A `cwd: null` write still passes, so an instance that just turned the
feature on
can clear a stale path.
With `enableIsolatedWorkspaces` off, the three workspace route groups
redirect to
the dashboard.
**Reason and benefit**
A control that cannot do anything is worse than a missing control: the
user fills
it in, saves, and gets no error and no effect. The server rule turns
that silent
no-op into a clear refusal. The route gate stops a feature that an
instance has
turned off from staying reachable by URL, which is the same standard the
Cases,
Pipelines, and hidden-settings pages already meet.
**Breaking changes**
None for a default instance: both flags are off by default for
self-hosted and
managed instances, so nothing changes unless an operator turns them on.
Stored
`adapterConfig` values are never cleared, so turning the feature off
restores
every previous value.
## What Changed
- Add `ui/src/hooks/useManagedSandboxOnly.ts`, modelled on
`useAppsEnabled`, for
components that do not already read the experimental settings. It
exposes
`hideHostPaths`, which fails closed while the settings query is in
flight, so
a cold cache never flashes a host path before the policy resolves.
Components
that keep their own settings read compute the same gate from
`isFetched`.
- Add `managedSandboxOnly` to `AdapterConfigFieldsProps` and populate it
where
`AgentConfigForm` builds the adapter field props. Resolve the effective
instructions-file gate once as `hideInstructionsFile || hideHostPaths`,
so
every adapter hides that path field with no per-adapter edit.
- Hide under the flag: the project "Local folder" block and its
absolute-path
edit panel (a managed checkout keeps its label, without the path); the
new-project "Local folder" field; the project-workspace "Local path"
field and
fact row; the execution-workspace "Paths" and "Lifecycle commands"
groups; the
working directory on the workspace summary card, the task workspace
card, the
task properties "Folder" row, and the runtime service rows; the plugin
"Local
folders" section; "Working directory (deprecated)" and "Command" in the
agent
form; and the per-adapter "Execution engine", "ACP server command", and
"ACP state directory" for `claude_local`, `codex_local`, and
`gemini_local`.
- Drop two working-directory fallbacks that had no gate to read: the
close-workspace
dialog now falls back to "No additional details", and the reuse-existing
workspace label and picker subtitle fall back to a neutral phrase.
- Refuse a non-null `cwd` with `422` on `POST /projects/:id/workspaces`,
`PATCH /projects/:id/workspaces/:workspaceId`, and the nested workspace
on
`POST /companies/:companyId/projects`, following the
`assertNoAgentHostWorkspaceCommandMutation` precedent on those routes.
- Add `IsolatedWorkspacesRouteGate` and wrap the `/workspaces`,
`/execution-workspaces/*`, and
`/projects/:projectId/workspaces/:workspaceId`
routes with it.
- Leave the SSH "Remote workspace path" and the workspace file browser
alone,
with a comment explaining why.
## Verification
Automated:
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run` — 479 of 480 files
pass
(4455 of 4456 tests). The one failure is `OnboardingWizard.test.tsx >
renders
instead of throwing when the browser denies storage access`, which also
fails
on `origin/master` and is unrelated to this change.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run project workspace
instance-settings`
— 45 of 50 files pass. Four files fail on macOS for reasons unrelated to
this
change: `workspace-instance-cleanup`, `workspace-runtime`,
`execution-workspace-runtime-control-conflict`, and
`workspace-runtime-exposure` compare `/var/...` against the resolved
`/private/var/...` or bind real ports. The same files fail on a clean
`master`
checkout on the same machine.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
- `tsc --noEmit` in `server/` (after
`pnpm --filter @paperclipai/plugin-sdk ensure-build-deps`). The package
`typecheck` script also builds the Rust runner, which needs `cargo`; it
is not
installed on the machine that ran this.
New and extended tests:
- `ui/src/adapters/managed-sandbox-only-config-fields.test.tsx` — the
three
adapters drop the execution engine, the ACP paths, the instructions-file
path,
and every "Choose" button when the flag is on, and keep the non-path
controls.
- `ui/src/components/AgentConfigForm.render.test.tsx` — flag-on and
flag-off
renders for the working directory, the command, the engine, the ACP
paths, and
the resolved adapter field props.
- `ui/src/components/ProjectProperties.managed-sandbox.test.tsx`,
`ui/src/components/NewProjectDialog.managed-sandbox.test.tsx`,
`ui/src/pages/ProjectWorkspaceDetail.test.tsx`,
`ui/src/components/ProjectWorkspaceSummaryCard.test.tsx`,
`ui/src/components/WorkspaceRuntimeControls.test.tsx`.
- `ui/src/components/IsolatedWorkspacesRouteGate.test.tsx` — redirect
when off,
render when on, and render nothing while the flag query is in flight.
- "Still loading" cases for the project properties, the new-project
dialog, the
workspace summary card, the runtime service rows, and the agent
configuration
form, each asserting that no host path renders before the policy
resolves.
-
`server/src/__tests__/project-workspace-managed-sandbox-routes.test.ts`
— the
`422` on all three write paths, the `cwd: null` pass-through, and the
flag-off pass-through.
Manual check to reproduce: turn on Managed Environment Only in instance
experimental settings, then open a project, the new-project dialog, an
agent's
configuration, and a workspace page. No path, folder icon, or "Choose"
button
appears. Turn the setting off and each control returns with its stored
value.
No documentation change was needed. The operator-facing text for both
settings
lives in the feature catalog entry, which already states the contract
this pull
request now enforces across the UI.
## Risks
- Low. Both flags default to off, so a default instance is unchanged.
- The hidden fields are presentation only. No stored `adapterConfig`
value is
cleared, because an import carries adapter configuration written on
another
instance and clearing it would break that flow. Turning the setting off
shows
every previous value again.
- The `422` is the one behavior change for an API caller, and only while
the
setting is on. `cwd: null` still passes so a stale path can be cleared.
- The route gate renders nothing until the flag query settles, so an
instance
with isolated workspaces on never flashes a redirect. An instance with
the
feature off now redirects a bookmarked workspace URL to the dashboard.
- Every host-path guard fails closed while the settings query is in
flight, so a
default instance shows those controls a moment later than before on a
cold
load. That is the safe direction: the alternative flashes a path a
managed
instance must never show.
- Two path surfaces stay on purpose, each with a comment: the SSH
"Remote
workspace path" is a path on the user's own remote host, and the
workspace file
browser shows workspace-relative paths. The instance Adapters page also
keeps
its "Local path" install option, since that page is an instance-admin
surface
the hosting operator can already hide through the hidden-settings
mechanism.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Every company has an issue prefix. It is the visible half of each
task and case identifier, and a self-hosted company derives it from the
name it was created with
> - A hosted or managed instance does not use the create-company flow.
The trusted-header auth path claims the tenant company instead
> - That path minted the prefix from a hash of the stack id, and it
wrote a placeholder description that nobody chose
> - So a hosted company showed opaque task IDs such as `PC7F2A-14`, and
a rename never changed them
> - This pull request derives the prefix from the company name on that
path too. It re-derives the prefix when the name changes on a managed
instance, and it rewrites the stored issue and case identifiers so
existing tasks follow the rename
> - It also repairs each company that an earlier build claimed. The
repair runs once, on the next authenticated request
> - The benefit is that task IDs on a hosted instance read like the ones
on a self-hosted instance, and they stay correct after a rename
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public issue exists. The description below follows
`.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/enhancement.yml`.
**What existing behavior does this improve?**
The tenant company claim in `resolveCloudTenantActor`
(`server/src/middleware/auth.ts`) and the company update in
`companyService.update` (`server/src/services/companies.ts`). Both
decide the
`issue_prefix` and the `description` of a company on a hosted or managed
instance.
**Subsystem affected**
`server/` — REST API and orchestration services. One small hint was also
added
in `ui/`.
**Current behavior**
A self-hosted company gets its issue prefix from its name. "Acme
Robotics"
becomes `ACM`, and its tasks read `ACM-14`.
A hosted or managed instance claims the company through the
trusted-header auth
path. That path wrote a different prefix: `"PC"` plus the first four hex
characters of the SHA-256 of the stack id. The same path also wrote a
placeholder description, `"Provisioned by ... for stack <stack id>."`.
The result is a task ID such as `PC7F2A-14`. It says nothing about the
company.
A later rename of the company does not change it, because nothing
re-derives
the prefix after creation.
**Proposed behavior**
The claim path derives the prefix from the company name, exactly as the
create-company flow does. It writes no description.
On a managed instance, a rename re-derives the prefix. The stored issue
and
case identifiers move with it, so `ACM-14` becomes `NOR-14` when "Acme
Robotics" becomes "Northwind Traders". A rename that keeps the same
three-letter
base keeps the current prefix, including any disambiguating suffix.
A self-hosted instance is unchanged. A rename there still keeps the
prefix the
company was created with.
Companies that an earlier build already claimed get a one-time repair on
their
next authenticated request. The repair re-derives the prefix from the
current
name, re-keys the identifiers, and clears the placeholder description.
**Reason and benefit**
A task ID is the primary handle for a task. People type it, paste it
into chat,
and read it in a URL. On a hosted instance that handle was an opaque
hash, and
it disagreed with the company name that the same user chose during
signup. The
name is the only prefix source a hosted user ever supplies, so the
prefix now
follows it.
**Breaking changes**
Yes, on hosted and managed instances only. A company rename now rewrites
the
stored issue and case identifiers. Links that carry an old identifier
stop
resolving after the rename. The company settings page states this before
the
user saves. The one-time repair applies the same rewrite once to
companies that
carry the old hash prefix. Self-hosted behavior does not change.
## What Changed
- Added `server/src/services/issue-prefix.ts`. It holds the prefix
helpers that
used to live inside the `companyService` closure:
`ISSUE_PREFIX_FALLBACK`,
`deriveIssuePrefixBase`, `issuePrefixSuffixForAttempt`, and
`isIssuePrefixConflict`. The companies service now imports them.
- Added `pickAvailableIssuePrefix` to that module. It reads the prefixes
in one
base family and returns the first free candidate. A standalone `INSERT`
can
retry on a unique violation, because each failed statement is its own
implicit
transaction. A caller that already holds a transaction cannot, because
the
violation aborts the whole transaction. Such a caller picks first, then
writes.
- Added `rekeyCompanyIssueIdentifiers` to that module. It rewrites the
prefix of
the stored `issues.identifier` and `cases.identifier` values of one
company in
the caller's transaction, and it returns the two row counts.
- `companyService.update` re-derives the prefix when the name changes on
a
managed instance, re-keys both tables in the same transaction, and
writes a
`company.updated` activity entry after the commit.
- `resolveCloudTenantActor` claims the company with a name-derived
prefix and a
null description. The claim retries with the next suffix when the prefix
is
taken.
- `resolveCloudTenantActor` also runs a one-time repair for companies
that carry
the old hash prefix. An exact-match fence on the update lets a
concurrent
rename win. The repair is idempotent, because its guards stop matching
after
it lands.
- The rename takes a row lock on the company before it compares anything
against
it, and it re-keys from the prefix it reads under that lock. Only patch
and
environment facts gate the lock, so no stale read can steer the
decision. Two
overlapping updates would otherwise leave a company whose prefix
disagrees with
its own identifiers, in either direction: two renames, where the second
re-keys
from a prefix the first already moved; or a rename plus a stale form
that
resubmits the original name, where the second sees an unchanged name,
skips
re-derivation, and restores the old name on top of the first rename's
prefix.
Only a managed instance takes the lock, and only for an update that
carries a
name.
- Both helpers compare an exact identifier head instead of a LIKE
pattern. A
stored prefix is data, so it must never be read as a pattern.
- The company settings page shows a hint under the name field on a
managed
instance: renaming can change the task ID prefix.
## Verification
Automated tests:
```
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run \
src/services/issue-prefix.test.ts \
src/__tests__/companies-service.test.ts \
src/__tests__/cloud-tenant-company-provisioning.test.ts \

pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck
```
New coverage:
- `server/src/services/issue-prefix.test.ts` covers the derivation, the
suffix
ladder, the cause-chain walk of the unique-violation detector, and
`pickAvailableIssuePrefix` against a stubbed select.
- `server/src/__tests__/companies-service.test.ts` covers a managed
rename
against a real Postgres database: the prefix moves, both identifier
tables are
re-keyed, and the activity entry is written. It also covers a same-base
rename,
a collision that takes the suffixed candidate, a non-name patch, and a
self-hosted rename that leaves the prefix alone. Two more tests drive
the
overlap cases: two concurrent renames of the same company, and a rename
racing
a stale form that resubmits the original name. Both assert that the
surviving
name's base matches the company prefix and that the stored identifiers
sit on
that prefix.
- `server/src/__tests__/cloud-tenant-company-provisioning.test.ts`
covers the
claim path and the repair against a real Postgres database: a
name-derived
prefix, a null description, a suffixed prefix on collision, the full
repair,
a second pass that changes nothing, a description-only repair, and an
operator-written description that the repair leaves alone.
- `ui/src/pages/CompanySettingsRenameHint.test.tsx` covers the hint on a
managed
instance and its absence on a self-hosted instance.
The `substring` cast in `rekeyCompanyIssueIdentifiers` is load-bearing
and the
database tests prove it. The driver binds the offset as text. Without
the
`::int` cast Postgres resolves the SQL-regex overload of `substring`,
and every
identifier becomes NULL.
## Risks
- **Re-keying changes existing identifiers and URLs.** This is
deliberate, and
it happens on hosted and managed instances only. After a rename, a link
that
carries an old task identifier stops resolving. The settings page warns
about
this before the user saves.
- **Identifiers inside comment text are not rewritten.** Only the
`identifier`
columns of `issues` and `cases` move. A task ID that someone typed into
a
comment, a description, or a document keeps the old prefix.
- **A lost prefix race inside the rename transaction surfaces as a
conflict.**
The rename picks a free prefix and then writes, because a unique
violation
inside a transaction aborts the whole transaction. Two *different*
companies
renamed onto the same base at the same moment can still collide. The
loser
sees its PATCH fail with the unique violation. The write is retryable by
the
client, and the window is a single statement wide. Two renames of the
*same*
company no longer race: the row lock serializes them, and the second one
re-keys from what the first committed.
- **The rename holds a row lock.** A managed rename takes `SELECT ...
FOR UPDATE`
on its own company row for the rest of the transaction. It is one row,
and no
other path in the transaction locks a company row, so there is no
lock-order
cycle. A self-hosted instance and every non-rename company update never
reach
the lock.
- **The one-time repair is best effort.** It runs inside a try/catch and
logs a
warning on failure, so it never blocks authentication. A failed pass is
retried
on the next request, because its guards still match.
- No schema change and no migration.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Hosting operators (a managed cloud, an internal shared server) tune
the settings surface with `PAPERCLIP_HIDDEN_SETTINGS`, but hiding a
control never changes its value
> - An instance whose stored feedback-sharing preference is still the
schema default ("prompt") keeps prompting users even when the operator
hid the control, leaving them no way to answer
> - More generally, operators have no supported way to change what a
setting defaults to without patching code

operator-supplied read-time default overlay for registry-listed general
settings
> - The benefit is that any hosting operator can pair "hide the control"
with "default the value", while explicit user choices and self-hosted
stock behavior stay untouched
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public issue exists; following the enhancement template:
**What existing behavior does this improve?**
Hosting operators need to supply the default value of selected instance
settings (first: `feedbackDataSharingPreference`) via configuration,
without patching code and without a hard-coded, opinionated constant in
the product.
**Subsystem affected**
Server (instance-settings service, feedback service, boot) and
`packages/shared` (settings schemas).
**Current behavior**
Setting defaults are fixed in the shared zod schemas.
`PAPERCLIP_HIDDEN_SETTINGS` can hide the feedback-sharing control and
floor writes, but the stored value stays "prompt", so issue-chat
surfaces keep prompting with no way to answer.
**Proposed behavior**
`PAPERCLIP_SETTING_DEFAULTS` takes a JSON object validated against a
shared registry of defaultable fields. The operator value substitutes
for the schema default at read time: a field whose effective value is
still the schema default resolves to the operator value; an explicit
non-default user choice always wins. Never persisted; unsetting the
variable restores stock behavior. Malformed JSON or an invalid value for
a known field refuses startup (fail closed); unknown field names warn
and are ignored (mixed-version fleet safe).
**Reason and benefit**
Any hosting operator can pair "hide the control" with "default the
value" without forking the product. Explicit user choices and
self-hosted stock behavior stay untouched.
**Breaking changes**
None. With the variable unset, every read path is byte-identical to
before.
## What Changed
- New `packages/shared/src/setting-defaults.ts`:
`SETTING_DEFAULTS_ENV_KEY`, `DEFAULTABLE_GENERAL_SETTINGS` registry
(currently `feedbackDataSharingPreference`), `parseSettingDefaults`
(fail-closed for policy content, warn-ignore unknown fields),
`applyOperatorGeneralDefaults` (pure read-time overlay),
`stripOperatorGeneralEchoes` (persist-time echo strip, see below),
re-exported from the package index.
- New `server/src/services/setting-defaults.ts`: parse-once accessor
mirroring `settings-visibility.ts`.
- `server/src/services/instance-settings.ts`: `toGeneralView` applies
the overlay in `get`/`getGeneral`/update responses; persisted writes
never carry operator values. Because general-settings writes materialize
every field, a stored schema-default value is treated as unchosen —
deliberate, documented, and covered by tests.
- `server/src/services/feedback.ts`: the preference-persistence branch
now checks the effective (overlaid) preference, so a stray prompt answer
cannot overwrite an operator default; its local normalize fallback now
returns full schema defaults.
- `server/src/index.ts`: boot-time fail-fast parse with a log line
naming the defaulted settings, mirroring the managed-config posture.
- The hidden-settings write floor (`assertNoHiddenSettingChanges`) keeps
comparing against effective values, so clients echoing a full GET
response keep working. To keep the overlay strictly read-time,
`updateGeneral` strips such echoes at persist time: a write of the
operator value over a field whose stored value is still the schema
default (unchosen) maps back to the schema default, so an echo cannot
promote the operator value into an explicit stored choice and later
changes to (or removal of) `PAPERCLIP_SETTING_DEFAULTS` still take
effect. A write of any other value, or over an explicit stored choice,
persists as given.
- Docs: `PAPERCLIP_SETTING_DEFAULTS` row + "Operator setting defaults"
section in `docs/deploy/environment-variables.md`.
- Tests: `packages/shared/src/setting-defaults.test.ts` (parse matrix,
overlay precedence, echo-strip matrix, immutability) and
`server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-operator-defaults.test.ts`
(accessor, substitution, explicit-choice wins, unset identity,
never-persisted, full-GET echo stays unchosen, explicit non-default
write persists).
## Verification
- `npx vitest run packages/shared/src/setting-defaults.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-operator-defaults.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-managed-overlay.test.ts` — 33
tests passing.
- `npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-service.test.ts` — 57 passing;
`npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/feedback-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-feedback-routes.test.ts` — 18 passing.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck` and `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/server typecheck` — clean.
## Risks
- Low. With the variable unset every read path is byte-identical to
before (identity overlay, covered by tests). The overlay is read-time
only and never persisted, so no migration and no data risk. Fail-closed
parsing means a bad policy value is a loud boot failure rather than
silent drift — consistent with the existing managed-config contract.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Humans oversee those agents in teams, so each person has a login and
a profile with an avatar
> - Avatars, logos and pasted images all go to one asset upload API,
which files each object under a namespace
> - The avatar namespace embeds the user id, and a deployment can take
user ids from an external identity layer, where a subject often holds
":", "|", "." or "@"
> - But the namespace validator accepted only letters, numbers, "/", "_"
and "-", so those users got a 400 "Invalid image metadata" error and
could not set a profile photo
> - This pull request widens the accepted characters, rejects "." and
".." path segments with a clear message, and cleans the namespace in the
upload client
> - The benefit is that profile photo upload works for every user, and a
namespace the API refuses now returns a message that says what is wrong
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No existing issue or open pull request covers this. I searched the issue
and pull request lists for "avatar upload", "profile photo", "Invalid
image metadata" and "asset namespace" and found no duplicate. The bug
report follows.
**What happened?**
Profile photo upload fails. `ui/src/pages/ProfileSettings.tsx` sends the
namespace `profiles/${user.id}` to `POST
/api/companies/:companyId/assets/images`. When the user id comes from an
external identity layer it can contain ":", "|", "." or "@" — for
example `oidc:example|jane.example@example.com`.
`createAssetImageMetadataSchema` in
`packages/shared/src/validators/asset.ts` accepted only
`/^[a-zA-Z0-9\/_-]+$/`, so the route returned 400 "Invalid image
metadata" (`server/src/routes/assets.ts`). The image bytes were never
the problem, but the message pointed at the image, so the toast gave the
user nothing to act on.
A second case has the same cause. The agent instructions editor in
`ui/src/pages/AgentDetail.tsx` builds a namespace that ends with a
filename, such as `agents/<id>/instructions/SKILL.md`. The "." in the
filename also failed the check.
**Expected behavior**
A profile photo uploads for any user id the app itself issues, and an
image pasted into the agent instructions editor uploads for any
instruction filename. A namespace the API does refuse returns a message
that names the field and states the rule.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run Paperclip with an external identity provider, so `user.id` holds
an OIDC subject such as `oidc:example|jane.example@example.com`.
2. Open Settings, then Profile.
3. Choose an avatar image.
4. The upload fails and the page shows "Invalid image metadata".
Or, with no identity provider:
1. Open an agent, then the instructions editor, and select a file whose
name contains a "." such as `SKILL.md`.
2. Paste an image into the editor.
3. The upload fails with the same error.
**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at eb86fcd49.
**Deployment mode**
Any deployment whose user ids come from an external identity layer. The
instructions-editor case reproduces on a plain self-hosted install too.
**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Not adapter-specific (core bug).
## What Changed
- `packages/shared/src/validators/asset.ts`: widen the namespace pattern
to `/^[a-zA-Z0-9\/_.:@|-]+$/`, and reject any "/"-separated segment
equal to "." or "..". A traversal attempt now gets a clean 400 from the
validator instead of an error from the storage provider.
- `packages/shared/src/validators/asset.ts`: add
`sanitizeAssetNamespace()`, which maps any string to a namespace the
schema accepts. It works per segment: it keeps the accepted characters,
turns the others into "-", collapses repeated dashes, drops empty and
dot-only segments, and caps the result at 120 characters. It returns
`undefined` when no segment survives, and the caller then sends no
namespace.
- `packages/shared/src/validators/asset.ts`: export
`ASSET_NAMESPACE_MAX_LENGTH` and `ASSET_NAMESPACE_RULE`, so the rule
text and the API error cannot drift apart.
- `ui/src/api/assets.ts`: run the namespace through
`sanitizeAssetNamespace()` in `uploadImage`. This is one choke point for
all callers, so no caller has to know the rule.
- `server/src/routes/assets.ts`: name the field in the 400 message —
`Invalid image metadata: "namespace" must be 1-120 characters of
letters, numbers, or / _ - . : @ |, and cannot contain "." or ".." path
segments`. The zod issue details stay in the response. The UI shows
`body.error`, so the toast is now actionable.
- Tests: a new `packages/shared/src/validators/asset.test.ts`
accept/reject matrix for the schema and the sanitizer; three cases in
`server/src/__tests__/assets.test.ts`; one case in
`ui/src/pages/ProfileSettings.test.tsx`.
## Verification
Targeted runs:
```
npx vitest run packages/shared/src/validators/asset.test.ts # 22 passed
npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/assets.test.ts # 11 passed
npx vitest run ui/src/pages/ProfileSettings.test.tsx # 2 passed
```
New cases:
- Schema: accepts identity-provider ids that hold ":", "|", "." and "@";
accepts `agents/<id>/instructions/SKILL.md`; rejects `profiles/bad
name!`, over-length input, and `.` or `..` segments.
- Sanitizer: passes identity-provider ids through unchanged, replaces
and collapses the other characters, drops the `.` and `..` segments
while keeping a segment of three or more dots, caps at 120 characters
without leaving a dot segment behind at the cut, and returns `undefined`
when nothing survives. One case asserts the sanitizer output always
parses.
- Route: 201 for `profiles/oidc:example|jane.example@example.com`, and
the storage service receives that namespace; 400 naming `namespace` for
`profiles/bad name!`; 400 for `profiles/../secrets`.
- UI: a session user id holding ":" and "|" uploads, and the namespace
reaches the API unchanged.
Typecheck:
```
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck # clean
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck # clean
cd server && npx tsc --noEmit -p tsconfig.json # clean
```
Package suites:
```
npx vitest run --project @paperclipai/shared --exclude "**/dist/**" # 586 passed, 8 pre-existing failures in src/worktree-seed-source.test.ts
npx vitest run --project @paperclipai/ui --exclude "**/dist/**" # 4402 passed
```
CI runs the server suite as ten shards (five general, five serialized),
which is the authoritative full run for this package. All shards pass on
this branch.
The `worktree-seed-source` failures reproduce on an unmodified checkout
of the same base commit and are unrelated to this change. The UI
failures seen in that run were 5-second test timeouts caused by running
two suites at once on one machine; each file passes when it runs alone.
No document states the namespace character rule — I checked `docs/` and
`doc/`, where the asset upload endpoint appears only in an OpenAPI
registry entry and a smoke-lab note, neither of which describes the
metadata fields. The rule now lives in one exported constant that the
API error reuses.
## Risks
Low risk.
- The wider character set does not widen what a caller can write to
disk. `server/src/storage/service.ts` already replaces every character
outside `[a-zA-Z0-9._-]` in each path segment, and
`server/src/storage/local-disk-provider.ts` already rejects "." and ".."
segments and any key that resolves outside the base directory. This
change moves the "." and ".." refusal earlier, to the validator, so the
caller gets a clear 400.
- The API is more permissive than before, so no request that used to
succeed can start failing.
- Namespaces stored before this change keep working. The namespace is
not a key that is looked up; it is a prefix under which new objects are
filed.
- One behavior change worth noting: the UI now cleans a namespace
instead of sending it as typed, so a caller that passes an unusable
namespace gets a cleaned prefix rather than a failed upload.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents can pause a task and ask the user structured questions.
> - The answer is durable in the issue interaction, but delivery to the
next run is not durable.
> - A process restart can therefore leave an answered interaction
without a continuation attempt.
> - Native runners also need a provider-neutral question contract before
the task page can consume native events safely.
> - This pull request adds a content-free delivery outbox and an
optional native steering seam.
> - Direct adapters keep their existing heartbeat continuation path.
> - The benefit is reliable answer delivery without changing runtime
selection or task-page behavior.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #12202. This pull request replaces the question-delivery foundation
from that stale task-thread pull request. The task-thread projection
will follow in a smaller pull request.
**What happened?**
Question answers were stored in the issue interaction. The server then
made one in-memory continuation wake. A server stop between those
operations could leave the answer stored but not delivered. The combined
native task-thread pull request also made this behavior hard to review
separately from UI changes.
**Expected behavior**
The answer and its delivery receipt must commit in one transaction. The
server must retry pending receipts after a restart. Existing direct
adapters must keep the current wake path. A native runtime may use the
optional steering seam, but this pull request does not enable native
steering in production.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Create an `ask_user_questions` interaction.
2. Answer the interaction.
3. Stop the server before the continuation wake completes.
4. Start the server again.
5. On current master, no durable record tells the server to retry the
answer delivery.
**Paperclip version or commit**
Current `master` at `4d82f5eae`.
## What Changed
- Add the `issue_question_response_deliveries` table and migration.
- Store only routing state, a correlation ID, and a payload digest in
the delivery row. The answer remains in the existing interaction result.
- Commit an answered interaction and its pending delivery row in one
transaction.
- Add bounded claims, retry recovery, cumulative terminal state, and
content-free activity records.
- Keep every built-in direct adapter and external adapter on the
existing heartbeat wake path.
- Add an optional native steering seam. No production caller supplies
that seam in this pull request.
- Retain the provider-neutral `paperclip.question_set.v1` presentation
on recovered interactions.
- Run delivery immediately after an answer and sweep pending rows at
startup and on the existing server interval.
- Add focused database, service, route, startup, adapter-matrix, digest,
and duplicate-delivery tests.
## Compatibility Boundary
- This pull request does not change adapter selection.
- This pull request does not start runnerd.
- This pull request does not create native run records.
- Direct adapters never call the native steering seam.
- The existing interaction result stays authoritative for answer
content.
- The migration is additive and does not rewrite existing rows.
- This pull request has no UI, dependency, workflow, package-manager, or
lockfile changes.
- The diff has 19 files.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/question-response-delivery.test.ts
server/src/services/issue-thread-interactions.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interaction-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts` — 4 files
and 120 tests passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` — passed for all applicable workspaces. This
includes Cargo format and check, protocol drift checks, and migration
safety.
- `pnpm build` — passed. This includes the Rust release binary, server
build, and UI production build.
- `git diff --check` — passed.
- Secret patterns were not present in the changed text files.
- The repository token gates currently report violations from unchanged
files on `master`. This pull request does not change those files.
## Risks
The main risk is routing a direct-adapter answer into a native session.
The service checks the persisted runtime mode, and the adapter matrix
proves that all direct adapters use only the existing wake path. The new
table is additive. It has foreign keys, unique correlation constraints,
bounded attempts, and status checks. Activity records omit question and
answer content.
## Model Used
OpenAI Codex, GPT-5 family. The client does not expose the exact
deployment ID or context window. Agentic reasoning, tool use, and code
execution were enabled.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Paperclip uses separate server and browser packages for runtime
services and the board.
> - Sentry integrations need an exact SDK version and safe optional
loading.
> - A version range can select an SDK that the privacy tests did not
audit.
> - Missing peer metadata does not describe the optional server SDK
contract.
> - This pull request pins the browser SDK and gates the optional server
SDK on its exact version.
> - The benefit is a clear SDK contract with fail-open startup behavior.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What happened?**
The browser package used the range ^10.71.0, so a lockfile refresh could
select a newer SDK. The server loaded @sentry/node dynamically but did
not declare its optional peer contract.
**Expected behavior**
The browser package must use the audited 10.71.0 version. The server
must load @sentry/node only when the installed peer matches 10.71.0. The
server must start when the optional peer is absent.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Install the project dependencies.
2. Inspect the browser Sentry version and the server package metadata.
3. Start the server without installing @sentry/node.
4. Confirm that the server starts and that the dynamic Sentry bootstrap
does not load an unsupported peer version.
**Paperclip version or commit**
9c57c0f119
**Deployment mode**
Built from source with pnpm dev or pnpm build.
**Installation method**
Built from source.
**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Not adapter-specific (core change).
**Database mode**
Not database-related.
## What Changed
- Pin @sentry/browser to exactly 10.71.0 as a UI development dependency.
- Declare @sentry/node as an optional server peer dependency at 10.71.0.
- Gate the dynamic server bootstrap on the exact peer version.
- Add tests for the browser pin, peer metadata, version gate, and
fail-open loading.
- Document the supported server SDK version.
- Keep the lockfile unchanged because the pull request workflow
regenerates it for manifest changes.
## Verification
- Server tests pass with six expected skips when @sentry/node is absent.
- UI tests pass.
- The UI build emits the lazy Sentry browser chunk.
- git diff --check passes.
- GitHub pull request checks must pass after this pull request opens.
- Greptile must return a 5/5 score with no open findings.
## Risks
The exact version gate prevents Sentry startup when an unsupported SDK
version exists. The integration remains optional and fail-open. The
lockfile workflow must regenerate the lockfile before frozen downstream
jobs run. The label-gated Storybook visual job must not run until it can
restore the generated lockfile artifact.
## Model Used
OpenAI Codex, GPT-5, tool use and code review support, exact context
window details are managed by the execution platform.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The server manages duplex channels that carry data between workers
and hosts.
> - The aggregate byte-ledger ceiling test can race the channel bind.
> - The race can make channel open fail before the test checks the
ceiling rejection.
> - This pull request writes one byte after the open call binds the
channel.
> - The test now checks the post-bind rejection and the retained-byte
count.
> - The benefit is a stable test that checks the intended byte-ledger
behavior.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What happened?**
The duplex aggregate byte-ledger ceiling test scripted data during
channel open. Under load, the host could process the data notification
before the open continuation bound the route. The test then saw
`DUPLEX_CHANNEL_OPEN_FAILED` instead of the intended post-bind
rejection.
**Expected behavior**
The test must open the channel first. It must then write one byte and
confirm that the serialized host-to-worker frame exceeds the four-byte
ceiling. The route must reject the write and retain no bytes.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run the focused server test file.
2. Repeat the test several times under load.
3. Observe that the old test can fail during channel open.
4. Run the updated test and confirm the post-bind rejection.
**Paperclip version or commit**
b64fbcd5b2
**Deployment mode**
Built from source with the server test runner.
**Installation method**
Built from source.
**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Not adapter-specific (core test).
**Database mode**
Not database-related.
**Additional context**
The change keeps the test-only scope to one file. A previous dependency
change used a separate pull request. This pull request covers the duplex
byte-ledger test fix only.
## What Changed
- Open the duplex channel without scripted data.
- Write one byte after the open call resolves.
- Update the test name and comments to describe the two reservations.
- Keep the change limited to
`server/src/__tests__/plugin-worker-manager-duplex-byte-ledger.test.ts`.
## Verification
- The focused test file passed five consecutive runs before this pull
request opened.
- The test passed with the four-byte ceiling.
- A control run with a 4096-byte ceiling failed only in this test case.
- GitHub Actions must pass the server test suite and all required gates.
- Greptile must return 5/5 with no open findings.
## Risks
Low risk. The change updates one test file and adds no production code.
The test now depends on the open call completing before the write, which
matches the route bind contract.
## Model Used
OpenAI Codex, GPT-5, tool use and code execution. The execution platform
manages the exact context window details.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip manages AI agents for work.
> - Paperclip includes an observability path that operators can enable
for tracing.
> - The server loads several OpenTelemetry packages only when tracing is
enabled.
> - The documentation calls these packages optional peer dependencies,
but the server manifest does not declare them.
> - This gap hides supported versions and stops Dependabot from
maintaining the packages.
> - This pull request aligns package metadata, runtime checks, and
documentation with the opt-in tracing design.
> - The change gives operators clear installation behavior and keeps the
no-op default.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
This pull request fixes a package metadata and installation defect.
Related observability work appears in
[#8476](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/8476) and
[#9672](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/9672).
The server documentation described optional OpenTelemetry peer
dependencies, but `server/package.json` did not declare them. Package
managers and Dependabot could not see the supported version ranges. The
UI and Claude local adapter also relied on automatic peer installation
for `yjs` and `@anthropic-ai/sdk`.
The package manifests now declare the optional runtime packages. A
default install does not install optional tracing peers. The server
keeps its no-op behavior when tracing is disabled or a peer is absent.
## What Changed
- Add seven optional OpenTelemetry packages to `server/package.json` and
mark each package as optional.
- Keep `@opentelemetry/api` as a normal dependency for the no-op
interface.
- Disable automatic peer installation in `.npmrc`.
- Declare `yjs` for the UI package and `@anthropic-ai/sdk` for the
Claude local adapter.
- Check declared peer versions before the server loads a dynamic
OpenTelemetry import.
- Keep the endpoint gate, dynamic imports, and fail-open behavior
unchanged.
- Update the observability and README documentation.
- Tell Dependabot that its npm parser does not read `peerDependencies`.
## Verification
- Targeted server tests pass: 34 passed and 2 skipped.
- The skipped tests require the real OpenTelemetry SDK and remain
pre-existing.
- The pull request workflow regenerates the lockfile because manifest
files and `.npmrc` changed.
- The policy job confirms that the pull request does not include
`pnpm-lock.yaml`.
- GitHub checks pass except `security/snyk (cryppadotta)`, which remains
pending after its authorized wait cap.
- Greptile Review reports 5/5 with no open findings.
- Server typecheck passes.
## Risks
- Optional peers can produce a diagnostic when the installed version
does not match the declared range.
- A missing optional peer does not stop the server.
- Disabling automatic peer installation can expose undeclared package
use in other workspaces.
- This pull request declares the affected packages and adds tests for
the changed behavior.
- This pull request makes no database or API changes.
## Model Used
OpenAI Codex, GPT-5, with repository inspection and pull request
preparation.

- Refs #11839
- Refs #11961
## What Changed
- Keep the one-hour suspicious level and four-hour critical level in
active-run API summaries.
- Stop output silence from creating or changing issues, recovery
actions, comments, relations, assignments, and wake requests.
- Store snooze, continue, and false-positive decisions against the run
without an evaluation issue.
- Preserve terminal-source folding, orphan cleanup, and open legacy
evaluation links.
- Show informational watchdog copy and board controls without requiring
an evaluation-task link.
- Document the UI-only watchdog contract.
- Add focused server and UI coverage for artifact-free scans and board
decisions.
## Verification

30 unrelated macOS test-harness failures in eight workspace, skill,
listener, and runtime exposure files. The failures use `/tmp` and
`/private/tmp` as different paths, require Linux `/proc` listener data,
or derive invalid HMR ports from the macOS ephemeral range.
- The full Linux CI matrix passed on the latest commit. It includes
build, typecheck, server tests, worker tests, serialization tests,
canary, and e2e tests.
- Greptile reviewed the latest commit at 5/5 with no actionable
findings.
## Risks
- The recovery scan keeps its existing result shape, but its created and
escalated counts remain zero for output silence.
- A false-positive decision now suppresses the signal for the full life
of that run.
- Open legacy evaluation issues remain visible and manually resolvable.
The scan does not refresh or reprioritize them.
- There is no database migration and no API schema change.

behavior and does not duplicate planned core work.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The server and the browser need clear error reports when an operator
enables external monitoring.
> - Paperclip already uses an opt-in OpenTelemetry pattern for server
traces.
> - Sentry can provide error reports for both runtime paths when the
operator sets one data source name.
> - This pull request adds one opt-in Sentry gate for the server and the
browser.
> - The benefit is faster diagnosis while the default setup sends no
Sentry data.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What is improved?**
Paperclip gains optional error monitoring for server and browser
failures.
**Subsystem affected**
Cross-cutting (server, UI, and shared authentication data).
**Current behavior**
Paperclip has no built-in Sentry error capture for server failures or
browser boundary failures. Operators must inspect local logs and browser
tools.
**Proposed behavior**
When the operator sets `SENTRY_DSN`, the server and authenticated
browser use the same Sentry project. When the variable is absent, both
paths stay inactive. The server loads Sentry dynamically and fails open
when the optional package is absent.
**Reason and benefit**
Operators can inspect runtime errors in one Sentry project. The default
setup remains local and sends no monitoring data.
**Breaking changes**
None when `SENTRY_DSN` remains unset. Authenticated session responses
add the optional `sentryDsn` field.
**Additional context**
The implementation uses built-in Sentry privacy options. It disables
default HTTP context and breadcrumb integrations and keeps
`sendDefaultPii` false.
## What Changed
- Add an opt-in server Sentry gate with dynamic package loading and
fail-open behavior.
- Add the Sentry data source name to the authenticated session response.
- Add an authenticated browser Sentry gate and React error boundary
capture.
- Add tests for server, browser, route, and application error paths.
- Document activation, installation, privacy settings, capture behavior,
and operator controls.
## Verification
- Run `npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/sentry.test.ts`.
- Run `npx vitest run ui/src/lib/sentry.test.ts`.
- Run `npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/auth-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/shutdown.test.ts`.
- Confirm that the full continuous integration suite passes on this pull
request.
- Leave `SENTRY_DSN` unset and confirm that the server and browser gates
stay inactive.
- Set `SENTRY_DSN` and install the optional Sentry packages before a
manual capture check.
## Risks
The operator controls the Sentry project and accepts the data risk when
the operator enables the feature. Error objects can contain messages,
stacks, or cause chains with private values. The default configuration
sends no data because the feature stays off without `SENTRY_DSN`. A
missing optional server package does not stop server boot.

OpenAI Codex, GPT-5, with tool use, repository inspection, GitHub CLI
operations, and code review support.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What happened?**
The referenced-project ignore scan trimmed NUL-delimited Git paths. It
also accepted a large ignored-path set and exposed raw failure details
through staging errors and warnings.
**Expected behavior**
The scan must preserve leading and trailing whitespace in Git paths. It
must reject oversized ignored-path data and expose only fixed failure
categories.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run the referenced-project ignore scan with paths that start or end
with whitespace.
2. Provide more than 10,000 ignored entries or more than 2 MiB of path
bytes.
3. Trigger a scan failure and inspect the reported reason.
**Paperclip version or commit**
d560bc2ae2
**Deployment mode**
Built from source.
**Installation method**
Built from source.
**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Not adapter-specific.
**Database mode**
Not database-related.
**Additional context**
This change covers the overlay diff, untracked, deleted, and ignored Git
paths. It also retries only typed scheduler saturation failures.
## What Changed
- Preserve all bytes in NUL-delimited Git path records.
- Bound ignored-entry count and total UTF-8 path bytes during parsing.
- Redact scan failure details to three fixed reason categories.
- Retry only the typed scheduler saturation error, with three total
attempts and 1 second then 2 second waits.
- Add tests for path whitespace, limits, diagnostics, retry behavior,
and scheduler code parity.
## Verification
- `npx tsc --noEmit` in `packages/adapter-utils` passed.
- `npx vitest run packages/adapter-utils` passed with 977 tests and 4
skipped.
- Continuous integration must run the server suite and the full
repository gates.
## Risks
The scan now rejects ignored-path data above fixed limits. Saturation
retries add up to 3 seconds before a final failure. The resolver still
fails closed for all other errors.
## Model Used
OpenAI GPT-5. The model used tool calls, code inspection, and command
execution. The exact context window and reasoning mode are not exposed
by the runtime.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Legacy local adapters run agents that use the Paperclip skill for
the control-plane workflow.
> - PR #7029 removed the required-skill fallback and made runtime skill
selection depend only on stored preferences.
> - No migration or runtime fallback replaced that behavior for existing
agents or non-CEO agents.
> - PR #12138 added core skills to new CEOs, and PR #12147 added Claude
skill discovery. These changes did not mount the operational skill for
all legacy agents.
> - This pull request makes the operational skill a legacy adapter
runtime invariant. It keeps all other skills configurable.

control-plane contract.

operate through Paperclip.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #12138
Refs #12147
**What happened?**
A skill-capable legacy local agent could start without
`paperclipai/paperclip/paperclip`. This happened when the agent had no
stored skill preference. An explicit empty preference also removed the
skill. The agent then reported that the Paperclip skill was not
available.
**Expected behavior**
Every skill-capable legacy local adapter must mount the Paperclip
operational skill when the runtime inventory contains it. Optional
skills must remain configurable. The native runner must keep its current
protocol-based behavior.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Create a non-CEO `codex_local` agent without `paperclipSkillSync`
preferences.
2. Start a legacy heartbeat.
3. Inspect the managed `CODEX_HOME/skills` directory.
4. Observe that the Paperclip skill is absent before this change.
**Paperclip version or commit**
The problem reproduces on `master` before this pull request. PR #7029
introduced the configured-only selection behavior.
**Deployment mode**
Local development and self-hosted legacy local adapters.
## What Changed
- Added a shared legacy skill resolver that always selects the canonical
Paperclip operational skill when it is available.
- Applied the resolver to direct adapter execution, ACPX execution,
skill snapshots, and persistent skill sync.
- Added Hermes skill materialization at sync and run boundaries.
- Aligned Cursor, Gemini, and OpenCode execution-time injection with the
configured child `HOME`.
- Made Hermes stop execution when another installation blocks the
required operational skill.
- Kept optional skills controlled by `paperclipSkillSync.desiredSkills`.
- Kept `paperclip_runner` on the configurable-only resolver.
- Added regression coverage for missing preferences, empty preferences,
each skill-capable legacy adapter, ACPX, Hermes, and native runner
isolation.
- Documented the legacy runtime invariant.
## Verification
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed on the pushed commit.
- `pnpm build` passed on the pushed commit.
- The adapter utility regression suites passed: 236 tests.
- The changed server adapter suites passed: 48 tests across 12 files.
- The OpenCode adapter suite passed: 8 tests.
- The Hermes adapter suite passed: 7 tests.
- `git diff --check` passed.
- `pnpm test:run` is not clean on this macOS host. The command reported
failures in unchanged workspace and filesystem suites. An isolated rerun
of `company-skills.test.ts` and `company-skills-service.test.ts`
reproduced 11 failures because macOS resolved `/var/...` paths as
`/private/var/...`. The changed adapter suites pass independently.
## Risks
- This change deliberately makes the operational skill non-removable for
skill-capable legacy local adapters.
- Existing agents receive the skill on their next list, sync, or run
boundary. No database migration is required.
- The resolver does not create a skill when the runtime inventory does
not contain the canonical entry.
- Hermes aborts a run if another installation occupies the required
operational skill target.
- Hermes removes only an undesired Paperclip-owned symlink that still
points to the known Paperclip source.
- The native runner does not receive the legacy default.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The development runner starts the local API, UI, and embedded
PostgreSQL services.
> - Developers need separate data roots when they run more than one
local checkout.
> - The runner forwarded `--data-dir` to a child process that did not
use it.
> - The migration check and server therefore continued to use the
default Paperclip home.
> - This pull request applies the data root before worktree setup and
migration checks.
> - The benefit is an isolated database and state root for each
requested development run.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #7466
## What Changed
- Parse and consume `--data-dir`, `--data-dir=<path>`, and `-d` in the
development runner.
- Set isolated default home, config, and context paths before worktree
setup and migration checks.
- Keep explicit config and context paths unchanged.
- Include the normalized data root in the local service identity.
- Let `dev:list` and `dev:stop` select the matching isolated service
registry.
- Keep explicit option environments independent of ambient process
instance values.
- Add regression tests and development documentation.
## Verification
- `PAPERCLIP_INSTANCE_ID=ambient-test-instance pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/dev-runner-options.test.ts` passes with 8 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` passes.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils build` passes.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passes.
- `pnpm build` passes.
- `pnpm dev:list --data-dir ./tmp/dev-service-review-fixture` selects
the isolated registry.
- A live run of `pnpm dev --data-dir ./tmp/data-dir-pr-smoke` became
healthy on port 3101 while another checkout used port 3100.
- The live run used `./tmp/data-dir-pr-smoke/instances/default/db` on a
separate PostgreSQL port.
- The latest-head Linux CI matrix passes, including build, typecheck,
canary, all general and serialized test shards, and all e2e shards.
- `pnpm test:run` was attempted on macOS. Current `master` has unrelated
workspace path failures because `/tmp` resolves to `/private/tmp`. The
focused regression suite passes, and the full Linux matrix is green.
## Risks
- Risk is low. The change only affects development runs that pass
`--data-dir` and matching service-management commands.
- Explicit `PAPERCLIP_CONFIG` and `PAPERCLIP_CONTEXT` values still take
priority.

## Model Used

its context window size.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Sandbox agents use adapter login routes to start authenticated
sessions
> - The setup-token start route accepted adapter types that later routes
and cleanup did not serve
> - This mismatch could create sessions that no route or reaper could
reach
> - The OpenAPI body schema and synchronous login capability defaults
also differed from the enforced behavior
> - This pull request pins the start guard to the served adapter, shares
the adapter constant, aligns the schema, and exposes login capabilities
early
> - The benefit is consistent session access, cleanup, API
documentation, and login UI behavior
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs: #11730
Refs: #11286
**Subsystem affected**
Cross-cutting server and UI login behavior.
**Problem or motivation**
The setup-token start route accepted a non-served adapter type.
Follow-up routes and the reaper only handled the served adapter. This
could create an unreachable session that held its slot. The OpenAPI
schema and early capability defaults also did not match the route
behavior.
**Proposed solution**
Pin the start guard, follow-up key, and reaper filter to one exported
served-adapter constant. Derive the OpenAPI body from the strict shared
schema. Add the login capability projection to synchronous defaults.
**Alternatives considered**
Keep separate adapter constants and add another guard at each follow-up
route. This would preserve duplicate sources of truth and leave future
drift possible.
**Roadmap alignment**
This change supports the Cloud / Sandbox agents milestone in
`ROADMAP.md`.
## What Changed
- Reject a setup-token start request when its adapter type is not the
served adapter.
- Reuse one exported adapter constant for the start guard, follow-up
key, and reaper filter.
- Derive the company adapter login-sessions start body from the strict
shared schema.
- Add the `login` capability projection to the synchronous Claude and
Codex adapter defaults.
- Add regression coverage for the rejected non-served adapter request.
## Verification
- The setup-token route suite passes, including the non-served adapter
regression test.
- The setup-token session-service suite passes.
- The setup-token reaper suite passes.
- The OpenAPI suite passes.
- The server TypeScript check passes.
- The UI TypeScript check passes.
- GitHub Actions must confirm all required checks after pull request
creation.
## Risks
The start route now rejects adapter types that follow-up routes cannot
serve. No database migration exists. Revert the one commit to roll back
the change.
## Model Used
OpenAI Codex, GPT-5, exact runtime model ID not exposed, large context
window, reasoning, tool use, and code execution. The implementing
engineer used AI assistance.

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The web UI registers a service worker (`/sw.js`) that caches the app
shell for an offline fallback.
> - Browsers only re-fetch a worker script on navigation or a ~24h
timer, and Paperclip is a parked-tab SPA: a tab can sit open for weeks
without one navigation.
> - An installed worker — and the shell it cached — can therefore keep
serving an old bundle long after a deploy, and the server let `sw.js`
inherit the generic 1h static TTL on top of that.
> - This pull request adds explicit update checks (tab-visible +
hourly), applies a discovered update with one reload while the tab is
hidden, and serves `sw.js` with `Cache-Control: no-cache`.
> - The benefit is that a deploy reaches every open tab within about an
hour, instead of some tabs silently running stale UI indefinitely.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #11292 (the network-first `sw.js` fallback fix; this PR closes the
delivery gap that can keep clients pinned on a pre-#11292 worker).
**What happened?**
A browser that had an older cache-first worker installed kept rendering
a stale app shell — old feature set, old naming — while the server was
verified to be running the current release. Nothing on the client checks
for a new worker outside navigations, so a parked tab never picked up
the fixed worker, and `sw.js` was served with a 1h cache TTL that
further delayed update checks.
**Expected behavior**
Every open tab converges to the deployed bundle shortly after a release,
without users unregistering workers in DevTools or hard-reloading.
**Steps to reproduce**
Install a build's service worker, deploy a newer build, and leave the
tab parked (no navigation): the tab keeps running the old bundle
indefinitely; the worker update check only happens if the user
navigates, and even then a cached `sw.js` can answer it.
## What Changed
- New `ui/src/lib/service-worker-updates.ts`: registers `/sw.js`, runs
`registration.update()` when the tab becomes visible and on an hourly
timer, and on `controllerchange` of a previously-controlled page applies
the update with a single reload — only while the tab is hidden, so an
update never yanks the page mid-session; a takeover while visible defers
the reload to the next hidden transition. First-ever installs never
reload.
- `ui/src/main.tsx`: replaces the fire-and-forget `register()` with the
new module.
- New `server/src/static-ui-cache.ts` (`staticUiCacheControl`):
`index.html` and `sw.js` are served `Cache-Control: no-cache`; other
non-hashed statics keep the 1h default. `server/src/app.ts` uses it in
the static middleware.
## Verification
- `npx vitest run ui/src/lib/service-worker-updates.test.ts` — 8 tests:
registration, hidden-takeover reload (once), deferred reload on visible
takeover, no reload on first install, visibility-triggered and
timer-triggered update checks, cleanup, no-container no-op.
- `npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/static-ui-cache.test.ts` — 3
tests incl. the `sw.js.map` lookalike keeping the default TTL.
- `tsc -b` (ui) and `tsc --noEmit` (server) clean; `pnpm check:tokens`
clean.
## Risks
- Behavioral shift: tabs now reload once, while hidden, after a deploy
lands. Unsaved in-page state in a hidden tab is lost at that moment —
the same exposure as a browser discarding a background tab, which SPAs
must already tolerate.
- Self-hosted behavior is otherwise unchanged: same worker script, same
registration URL, one added conditional header.
- Low risk on the server side: the header change only widens
revalidation.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The app can run self-hosted or as a cloud-managed instance, where a
hosting platform provisions the instance with its company already
materialized (the existing `isCloudManagedInstance()` predicate and
`cloud_managed` floors)
> - The company Import/Export surface lets an operator materialize whole
companies from an export bundle; on a cloud-managed instance this
bypasses the existing `cloud_managed` company-creation floor and
conflicts with platform-owned provisioning
> - Importing should be disabled on cloud-managed instances, while
export stays open as the data-portability escape hatch
> - This pull request floors every import route with 403
`code=cloud_managed` on cloud-managed instances and hides the Import UI
there, using the existing predicate and the established floor pattern
> - It also extends the operator-hidden settings registry with keys for
every top-level company settings page, so a hosting operator can hide
any of them with `PAPERCLIP_HIDDEN_SETTINGS` alone next time
> - The benefit is one consistent managed-instance policy: cloud-managed
instances cannot import companies, self-hosted installs keep the full
import surface unchanged
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public issue exists; the underlying problem follows the enhancement
template.
**What existing behavior does this improve?**
The company import surface (`/api/companies/import*`,
`/api/companies/:companyId/imports/*`) and its UI entry points on
cloud-managed instances.
**Subsystem affected**
Server routes (`server/src/routes/companies.ts`) and UI navigation/pages
(settings sidebar, settings tabs, org chart, `/company/import` route).
**Current behavior**
A cloud-managed instance floors direct company creation (`POST
/api/companies` answers 403 `cloud_managed`), but the import routes
still accept company bundles, so an import can materialize companies the
hosting platform did not provision. The UI offers Import entry points
that lead to a surface that is not available on cloud-managed instances.
**Proposed behavior**
On instances where `isCloudManagedInstance()` is true, every import
route answers 403 `code=cloud_managed` before auth and body work, and
the Import UI (sidebar entry, settings tab, org-chart button,
`/company/import` route) is hidden or redirected. Export remains fully
available. Self-hosted instances are unchanged.
**Reason and benefit**
Cloud-managed instances keep one consistent provisioning authority, and
users do not see an Import surface that dead-ends in a 403.
## What Changed
- `server/src/routes/companies.ts`: a router-level floor mounted at the
`/import` and `/:companyId/imports` prefixes. It covers the single-shot
upload, preview, job polling, chunked transfer
declare/part-upload/status/preview/apply, and the agent-safe per-company
import routes. It throws `forbidden(..., { code: "cloud_managed" })` on
cloud-managed instances, or `403 settings_operator_managed` when the
operator hides `company.import` — both before auth and body validation,
mirroring the company-creation floor.
- `packages/shared/src/settings-visibility.ts`: new
`HIDEABLE_COMPANY_PAGES` registry group — `company.members`,
`company.invites`, `company.secrets`, `company.export`, `company.import`
— with a `hidesCompanyPage` helper. The company General page stays
non-hideable (settings root). `company.import` floors its API; the other
keys are UI-visibility only, as documented in the registry, so
membership/invite/secret/export APIs stay live for agents.
- `ui/src/components/CloudManagedPageGate.tsx` (new): route gate that
redirects cloud-managed instances to `/company/settings`, modeled on
`HiddenSettingsPageGate`.
- `ui/src/App.tsx`: wraps the `company/import` route in
`CloudManagedPageGate`.
- `ui/src/components/CompanySettingsSidebar.tsx`,
`ui/src/components/access/CompanySettingsNav.tsx`,
`ui/src/pages/OrgChart.tsx`: hide the Import entry points when
`useCloudInstance()` reports a managed instance, and honor the new
`company.*` hidden-settings keys for every company page entry (sidebar
item, tab, org-chart buttons).
- `ui/src/App.tsx`: `HiddenSettingsPageGate` route gates for the members
(incl. the legacy access route), invites, secrets, export, and import
pages under their `company.*` keys.
- `docs/deploy/environment-variables.md`: documents the new keys and
their semantics; the CLI and board-operator guides note that import is
unavailable on cloud-managed instances.
- Tests: new `server/src/__tests__/company-import-cloud-floor.test.ts`
and `ui/src/components/CloudManagedPageGate.test.tsx`, registry cases in
`packages/shared/src/settings-visibility.test.ts`, plus cloud and
hidden-key cases in the sidebar, settings-nav, and org-chart suites.
## Verification
- TypeScript typechecks pass for every workspace package (`tsc` in
shared, server, ui; the runner's Rust leg needs a local cargo toolchain
and is covered by CI).
- `pnpm test` on this branch fails only in 9 files that also fail on a
clean `origin/master` checkout on the same machine
(environment-dependent suites: live-listener probes,
workspace/native-runtime spawns, skill materialization). Zero
branch-only failures against that baseline; every suite touched by this
change passes.
- `server/src/__tests__/company-import-cloud-floor.test.ts` asserts:
every import route answers 403 `cloud_managed` under the server-token
signal; the managed-config signal alone also floors; every import route
answers 403 `settings_operator_managed` when `company.import` is hidden;
hiding other company pages leaves import open; the floor applies before
auth and body validation; export stays open on cloud-managed instances;
self-hosted import preview and job polling still work.
- `packages/shared/src/settings-visibility.test.ts` covers the new
`company.*` keys and `hidesCompanyPage`.
- UI suites assert the Import tab, sidebar entry, and org-chart button
disappear on a cloud-managed instance while Export stays, that
`/company/import` redirects through the gate, and that the `company.*`
keys hide their sidebar entries and tabs.
## Risks
- Low risk for self-hosted installs: the floor is inert unless a cloud
signal (`PAPERCLIP_CLOUD_TENANT_SERVER_TOKEN` or
`PAPERCLIP_MANAGED_CONFIG`) is present, and the self-hosted paths are
regression-tested.
- On cloud-managed instances this is a deliberate behavioral removal:
import (including agent-driven safe imports and resumable transfers)
stops working the moment an instance runs this build. In-flight chunked
transfers on such instances cannot be applied afterward; they answer
403.
- CLI import commands against a cloud-managed instance now fail with the
`cloud_managed` error; the message names the reason.
- The new `company.*` keys change nothing unless an operator sets them:
`PAPERCLIP_HIDDEN_SETTINGS` unset keeps behavior identical, and older
images ignore unknown keys by design. The four non-import company keys
hide UI only; their APIs stay live, which the registry documents
explicitly.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Sandbox adapters stage project files before an agent starts.
> - Referenced projects ignored Git-ignored paths and copied large local
directories.
> - This behavior increased staging time and disk use, and it differed
from anchor workspaces.
> - This pull request resolves Git-ignored paths once and shares that
result across all referenced-project consumers.
> - The benefit is smaller, faster, and consistent project staging.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public GitHub issue exists for this bug.
**What happened?**
Referenced-project staging copied Git-ignored paths, except for a fixed
list of heavy directory names. A large repository therefore used much
more time and disk space than the same repository in an anchor
workspace.
**Expected behavior**
Referenced-project staging should exclude the same Git-ignored paths
that the workspace staging path excludes.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Create a referenced project with a large Git-ignored directory.
2. Start a sandbox or SSH run that stages the referenced project.
3. Observe that the ignored directory enters the staged content.
**Paperclip version or commit**
Commit `9964b034bbff24e700c8eccf5a8b1fc3daa44bf2`.
**Deployment mode**
Built from source.
## What Changed
- Resolve each referenced project's Git-ignored paths once before
staging.
- Carry the resolved paths as a required field on
`SandboxAdditionalSource`.
- Reuse the resolved paths in sandbox staging, SSH staging, and
content-signature code.
- Harden the read-only Git helper with a bounded process, a reduced
environment, and disabled system and global configuration.
- Fail closed on Git errors, timeouts, and invalid path relations.
- Escape tar glob metacharacters in ignore-derived exclude entries.
- Add and update unit tests for the resolver and its three consumers.
## Verification
- `pnpm vitest run --config packages/adapter-utils/vitest.config.ts`
passes 266 tests locally.
- `pnpm exec tsc --noEmit -p packages/adapter-utils/tsconfig.json`
passes locally.
- CI must pass on this pull request.
- Greptile must report 5/5 with no unresolved comments before merge.
## Risks
- A Git error or timeout now prevents staging for the affected
referenced project.
- The resolver uses a bounded read-only Git process and fails closed by
design.
- The change stays inside `packages/adapter-utils` and does not change
the database schema.
## Model Used
Claude Sonnet 5 (Anthropic) assisted the implementation with code
execution and tool use. The exact context window and reasoning mode are
not recorded.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The Paperclip Runner now has protocol, provider, tool, package,
persistence, and hidden server boundaries.
> - The server still cannot select that path for a real agent heartbeat.
> - A new runtime must not change any existing direct adapter.
> - An experimental runtime must fail closed when its rollout flag is
off.
> - This pull request adds one guarded Codex vertical slice through
runnerd.
> - The benefit is a production-built runner path that users cannot
start by default.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #12111
Refs #12169
Refs #12176
**Subsystem affected**
Cross-cutting. The change affects the runner package, server
orchestration, shared settings, and adapter configuration UI.
**Problem or motivation**
The hidden PRP coordinator cannot execute a real heartbeat. The
application also needs an explicit rollout boundary before it can expose
the experimental runner. Existing direct adapters must keep their
current execution and finalization behavior.
**Proposed solution**
Add `paperclip_runner` as a Codex-only adapter behind the default-off
`enableNativeRunner` instance flag. Select the native runtime only for
that adapter. Persist the run binding before runnerd starts. Wait for
the durable PRP result and terminal event. Resume the real Codex
provider thread on later heartbeats. Keep persisted native runs readable
and recoverable after the flag changes.
**Alternatives considered**
The server could route `codex_local` through runnerd. That option would
change an existing adapter and weaken rollback safety. The server could
expose all providers now. That option would add unreviewed provider
behavior. The build could depend on a prebuilt runner binary. That
option would make source builds architecture-dependent and difficult to
verify.
**Roadmap alignment**
This work supports the shipped enforced-outcomes, governed-tool, and
self-healing-run milestones. It does not add a new roadmap surface. It
is the guarded execution step after the merged hidden runner boundaries.
**Additional context**
This is the next replacement for the closed large runner pull request.
Task-thread presentation remains a separate follow-up so this change can
preserve the current direct-adapter UI.
## What Changed
- Add `paperclip_runner` as an explicit Codex-only adapter.
- Add the default-off `enableNativeRunner` instance flag.
- Reject fresh create, hire, import, switch, and execution requests
while the flag is off.
- Allow edits to persisted runner agents while the flag is off.
- Recover an already persisted native run even after the flag is
disabled.
- Keep every built-in direct adapter on its existing runtime path.
- Persist an immutable native run binding and revisioned completion
contract before runnerd starts.
- Execute server to PRP to runnerd to Codex to server through the hidden
coordinator.
- Validate the durable result against the terminal event and exact
completion criteria before finalization.
- Preserve the Codex provider thread ID and use `thread/resume` on the
next heartbeat.
- Strip unsupported Codex configuration fields from the experimental
adapter.
- Build a target-native release runner binary from source and vendor it
into the server distribution.
- Install Rust only in the Docker build stage. Do not add a workflow or
lockfile change.
- Stop the runner process group on completion, cancellation, and forced
shutdown.
## Verification
- Run `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner check:all`. All 69
TypeScript tests and 58 Rust tests pass. Protocol, conformance, replay,
formatting, and generated-file checks pass.
- Run the 12 focused adapter, settings, runtime-selection, coordinator,
direct-isolation, and real Codex integration test files. All 186 tests
pass.
- The real integration test uses PostgreSQL, HTTP, WebSocket, runnerd,
and a fake Codex app server. It proves one `thread/start` followed by
one `thread/resume`.
- Run `pnpm -r typecheck`.
- Run `pnpm build`.
- Run `pnpm check:token-gates`.
- Build the Docker `build` target from a clean context. Confirm that the
server distribution contains an executable `paperclip-runnerd` built
with Debian Rust 1.85.
- Start the server through the source-mode tsx entry point with the
package `dist` directory absent. Confirm the vendor shim resolves source
exports and the server boots.
- Run `pnpm test:run` twice. On this macOS host, 405 files pass and 1
file skips. Eight untouched workspace and loopback tests fail because
macOS resolves `/tmp` and `/var` through `/private` and because
PID-derived test ports exceed 65535. Linux CI must pass the full suite.
- Confirm that the diff contains 52 files. Confirm that it contains no
`.github` or `pnpm-lock.yaml` change.
## Risks
- The feature flag is off by default. A fresh native start fails with a
stable error while the flag is off.
- A persisted native run remains recoverable after the flag changes.
This prevents rollout changes from corrupting recorded work.
- Only local Codex execution is accepted. Other providers and remote
work modes fail closed.
- Existing direct adapters do not start runnerd, create native rows, use
native status arbitration, or enter native finalization.
- The runner receives its one-use bootstrap ticket through the child
environment. The server does not put the ticket in command arguments or
logs.
- The server validates the company, task, agent, run, runner, session,
completion contract, result, and terminal binding before it accepts
completion.
- The build compiles a target-native Rust binary. Cross-platform release
packaging remains a later concern. Source builds and Docker builds
compile for their current target.
- Docker needs enough build memory for the existing server TypeScript
compile. The Docker build stage sets a 4 GB V8 heap limit.

with planned core work may need to be redirected — check the roadmap
first. See `CONTRIBUTING.md`.
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex with GPT-5. The exact deployment ID and context-window
size are not exposed. The model used agentic reasoning, repository
tools, code execution, and test execution.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Runtime skill listing materializes each company skill's files before
handing them to the agent's adapter
> - A materialization failure was swallowed with catch-to-null, and the
skill silently vanished from the runtime while the library still showed
it installed
> - Operators saw "installed", agents saw nothing, and nobody saw the
cause; on claude-local a missing desired skill could even crash the
prompt-bundle hasher
> - This pull request turns both failure paths into structured "missing"
entries with the real error and makes every adapter skip unmountable
entries explicitly
> - The benefit is that a broken skill shows up as broken, with its
cause, instead of not existing
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What happened?**
A company skill whose runtime files fail to materialize (deleted source,
missing stored SKILL.md copy, failed version snapshot) disappears from
`listRuntimeSkillEntries` with no trace. Agent skill snapshots report a
generic "not available" with no cause. On claude-local, a desired skill
whose source path does not exist reaches the prompt-bundle hasher, whose
`fs.lstat` throws and can fail the whole run.
**Expected behavior**
The skill appears with `sourceStatus: "missing"` and a `missingDetail`
carrying the underlying error, snapshots and the UI show it as broken,
and adapters skip it at mount time with a logged warning instead of
crashing or dangling-symlinking.
**Steps to reproduce**
Install a local-path skill referenced by an agent, delete its source
directory contents so the stored SKILL.md copy cannot be recovered, and
start a run: before this change the skill vanishes from the runtime set
silently; on claude-local a pinned-but-unmaterializable version can fail
bundle preparation.
## What Changed
- `server/src/services/company-skills.ts` `resolveRuntimeSkillSource`:
both `.catch(() => null)` sites (version snapshot, runtime
materialization) now return the structured `{status: "missing", source,
detail}` shape the deliberate missing branch already used, with the
underlying error message in `detail`.
- `packages/adapter-utils/src/server-utils.ts`:
`isPaperclipSkillSourceMissing` is exported with a doc comment.
- `packages/adapters/claude-local/src/server/execute.ts`: missing
desired skills are filtered out of the prompt bundle and each one logs a
`[paperclip] Warning` with its detail to the run output.
- `cursor-local`, `gemini-local`, `kimi-local`, `opencode-local`,
`pi-local` `execute.ts`: mount loops (and the cursor/gemini injection
calls) skip missing entries instead of symlinking a nonexistent path.
## Verification
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/company-skills-service.test.ts` — new test pins the
missing-with-cause entry for a failed materialization. Nine pre-existing
project-workspace tests in this file fail on my machine at clean
`master` too (environment-specific); their count is unchanged by this
PR.
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-runtime-skills.test.ts
src/__tests__/claude-local-skill-sync.test.ts
src/__tests__/cursor-local-skill-sync.test.ts
src/__tests__/cursor-local-skill-injection.test.ts
src/__tests__/gemini-local-skill-sync.test.ts` — 12 tests pass.
- `cd packages/adapters/claude-local && npx vitest run` — 244 passed, 1
skipped.
- `pnpm run typecheck` clean in server, adapter-utils, and all six
touched adapters.
## Risks
- Runtime skill entry lists grow by the previously dropped entries (now
flagged missing). All shipped consumers either intersect with desired
sets, already handle `sourceStatus: "missing"`, or now skip missing
entries at mount time. The snapshot layer already understood the missing
shape via the `materializeMissing: false` path, so downstream contracts
are unchanged.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Importing a company package as a new company takes the company name
from the package manifest
> - Repeat imports of the same package therefore create several
identically named companies, distinguishable only by issue prefix
> - Users cannot tell which import they are looking at, which feeds the
"my import disappeared" loop of importing again

(3)", … on collision, while honoring explicitly typed names verbatim
> - The benefit is that every imported company has a recognizable name
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What existing behavior does this improve?**
Naming of companies created by the company package import.
**Subsystem affected**
Server — company import (`server/src/services/company-portability.ts`).
**Current behavior**
The new-company branch uses `newCompanyName ?? manifest name ??
"Imported Company"` with no de-duplication. Only the issue prefix is
unique. Three imports of the same package yield three companies with the
same name.
**Proposed behavior**
When the name comes from the manifest (no explicit `newCompanyName`),
the import checks existing company names case-insensitively and appends
the first free " (N)" suffix. Explicit names remain honored verbatim.
Name exhaustion (thousands of collisions) falls back to the base name
rather than failing the import, since names carry no uniqueness
invariant.
**Breaking changes**
None. Only the default name of newly imported companies changes, and
only on collision.
## What Changed
- New exported pure helper `dedupeImportedCompanyName(baseName,
existingNames)`.
- The new-company branch resolves the name through it when no explicit
name was provided, reading existing names via `companyService.list()`.
## Verification
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/company-portability.test.ts` — 87 tests pass (new: pure
helper cases and two `importBundle` tests for the suffixed manifest name
and the honored explicit name).
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/company-portability-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/company-portability-import-batching.test.ts` — 44 passed,
1 skipped (pre-existing skip).
- `cd server && pnpm run typecheck` — clean.
## Risks
- Low risk. The check-then-create has a theoretical race with a
concurrent import, but names have no unique constraint — the worst case
is today's behavior (a duplicate name). Issue-prefix uniqueness is
untouched.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What existing behavior does this improve?**
The `alreadyCompleted` rejection when re-declaring a chunked
company-import transfer.
**Subsystem affected**
Shared transfer contract
(`packages/shared/src/company-import-transfer.ts`), transfer declaration
route (`server/src/routes/companies.ts`), web import page, CLI import
command.
**Current behavior**
`POST /api/companies/import/transfers` returns `alreadyCompleted: true`
with no pointer to the earlier import. Web and CLI raise "This exact
package was already imported by a completed transfer. Re-export the
package to import it again."
**Proposed behavior**
The response includes an optional `company` field (`{id, name,
issuePrefix} | null`) resolved from the completed run's company link.
Web and CLI raise a shared message: `… It created the company
"Paperclip" (PAPA) — open it from the company switcher. Re-export the
package to import it again.` A company that was deleted since (or a link
that was never written) degrades to `null` and the original message.
**Breaking changes**
None. The new response field is optional; old clients ignore it.
## What Changed
- `CompanyImportTransferCreated` gains optional `company`, plus a shared
`buildAlreadyImportedMessage` used by both clients.
- The declaration route's `alreadyCompleted` branch resolves the landed
company null-safely via `companyService.getById`.
- Web (`ui/src/pages/CompanyImport.tsx`) and CLI
(`cli/src/commands/client/company.ts`) raise the shared message.
## Verification
- `cd packages/shared && npx vitest run
src/company-import-transfer.test.ts` — 3 tests (named company, id
fallback, no-company original message).
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/company-import-transfer-routes.test.ts` — 24 tests; the
re-declaration test now asserts the company payload and the
deleted-company null path.
- `cd cli && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/company-import-transfer.test.ts` — 17 tests; new test pins
the named-company message.
- `cd ui && npx vitest run src/pages/CompanyImport.test.tsx` — 23 tests.
- `pnpm run typecheck` clean in shared, server, ui, cli.
## Risks
- Low risk. The lookup runs only on the `alreadyCompleted` branch and is
null-safe; the transfer run is already scoped to the requesting actor
(user + instance context in the actor key), so the response never names
a company the caller did not import.

work

one-click resume
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What existing behavior does this improve?**
Working with a company whose agents arrived paused from a company
import.
**Subsystem affected**
Shared constants (`PAUSE_REASONS`), company import service
(`server/src/services/company-portability.ts`), task thread and new-task
dialog UI.
**Current behavior**
Imported agents get `pauseReason: "system"`, the same value
plugin-managed and built-in agent pauses use. Assigning an issue to a
paused agent silently drops the wake. The chat-style task thread renders
no paused notice; the legacy thread's notice says "It was paused by the
system." with no action and only renders when the composer is shown.
**Proposed behavior**
Import writes `pauseReason: "import"`. The paused-assignee notice
explains the import pause, offers an inline "Resume agent" button
(suppressed for budget pauses, which clear on their own), and renders
for read-only viewers. The chat-style task thread shows the same notice
above the composer. The new-task dialog warns when the selected assignee
is paused.
**Breaking changes**
None. `PAUSE_REASONS` is widened, not changed; the column already stores
free-text values in other paths, and every consumer is an equality check
with a manual fallback, so an older client shows the generic fallback
copy for the new value.
## What Changed
- `packages/shared/src/constants.ts`: `"import"` added to
`PAUSE_REASONS`.
- `server/src/services/company-portability.ts`: the import pause patch
writes `pauseReason: "import"`.
- `ui/src/components/IssueChatThread.tsx`: `IssueAssigneePausedNotice`
gains import copy, a Resume button, test ids, and is exported; it now
renders even when the composer is hidden. New `onResumeAssignee` /
`resumeAssigneePending` props.
- `ui/src/components/TaskChatThread.tsx`: renders the paused-assignee
notice above the composer dock (the chat-style thread previously had no
paused surface at all).
- `ui/src/pages/IssueDetail.tsx`: wires a resume mutation
(`agentsApi.resume`) through both thread variants and invalidates the
company agent list.
- `ui/src/components/NewIssueDialog.tsx`: inline note when the chosen
assignee is paused, with import-specific copy.
## Verification
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/company-portability.test.ts` — 82 tests pass (pause pin
updated to `"import"`).
- `cd ui && npx vitest run src/components/IssueChatThread.test.tsx
src/components/NewIssueDialog.test.tsx
src/components/TaskChatThread.test.tsx` — 120 tests pass (new: notice
copy per reason, resume click, budget suppression, active-agent null
render, dialog note).
- `pnpm run typecheck` in `packages/shared`, `server`, and `ui` — clean.
## Risks
- Low risk. The resume action calls the existing `POST
/agents/:id/resume` route with its existing guards. Existing rows keep
`"system"` and fall back to the current generic copy; only new imports
write `"import"`.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Each agent's runtime only receives skills listed in its own
desired-skill set; the company library alone does nothing for an agent
> - Every CEO creation path (first-run wizard hire, New Agent
first-agent flow, cloud onboarding seed) creates the CEO with an empty
desired-skill set
> - The default CEO instructions tell the agent to use the core
paperclip skills, so a fresh CEO contradicts its own instructions and
reports its toolkit as "not installed"
> - This pull request unions the core skill keys into every
skills-capable CEO hire/create and into the onboarding-seeded CEO's
adapter config
> - The benefit is that a new CEO can actually do what its instructions
describe, and stops telling users that installed skills do not exist
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What existing behavior does this improve?**
Creating the first lead agent (role `ceo`) via hire, create, or the
cloud onboarding seed.
**Subsystem affected**
Server — agent hire/create routes (`server/src/routes/agents.ts`),
onboarding seed (`server/src/services/onboarding-seed.ts`), company
skills service constant (`server/src/services/company-skills.ts`).
**Current behavior**
A CEO created by the wizard, the New Agent page, or the onboarding seed
has no `paperclipSkillSync` block. Its runtime mounts zero skills. Its
default instructions (`server/src/onboarding-assets/ceo/AGENTS.md`,
`HEARTBEAT.md`) tell it to use `paperclip-create-agent`,
`para-memory-files`, and the paperclip coordination skill. The agent
then reports these skills as not installed.
**Proposed behavior**
When the new agent's role is `ceo` and its adapter supports skill sync,
the hire and create routes union the five bundled
`paperclipai/paperclip/*` skill keys into the requested desired-skill
set. The onboarding seed writes the same preference into the seeded
CEO's adapter config. Explicit requests win over defaults for the same
key. Non-CEO agents are unchanged. Any default stays removable through
`POST /agents/:id/skills/sync`.
**Breaking changes**
None. The default is additive, applies only to role `ceo` on
skills-capable adapters, and the bundled skills are guaranteed present
in every company library by `ensureSkillInventoryCurrent`.
## What Changed
- New exported constant `PAPERCLIP_CORE_SKILL_KEYS` in
`server/src/services/company-skills.ts` (the five bundled
`paperclipai/paperclip/*` keys).
- `defaultRoleSkillSelections` + `withDefaultRoleSkillSelections`
helpers in `server/src/routes/agents.ts`, applied in both the hire and
create routes before `resolveDesiredSkillAssignment(..., "add")`.
- `server/src/services/onboarding-seed.ts` builds the seeded CEO's
adapter config with `writePaperclipSkillSyncPreference` instead of `{}`
when the seeded adapter supports skills.
## Verification
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/agent-skills-routes.test.ts` — 32 tests pass (three new:
CEO default set, union with a requested skill, non-CEO untouched).
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/onboarding-seed-route.test.ts` — 14 tests pass (seeded CEO
adapter config assertion added).
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/agent-permissions-routes.test.ts` — 54 tests pass.
- `cd server && pnpm run typecheck` — clean.
## Risks
- Existing CEOs are not modified; only newly created ones get the
defaults. An operator who wants a minimal CEO can remove the skills
after creation with the skills sync (mode `remove`), and that removal
sticks. Adapters without skill support are skipped, so the change is
inert there.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip routes plugin worker messages to agent sessions.
> - The login pseudo-terminal route opens after the host receives the
open reply.
> - `readline` can deliver later frames from the same pipe read before
that reply continuation runs.
> - The host dropped early output and exit frames.
> - The fix queues valid early frames, preserves arrival order, and
replays them after the route opens.
> - The route uses bounded memory and closes fail-closed when a bound
breaks.
> - The final tests also pin child issue ordering so the serialized
suite remains deterministic.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Fixes#12122
## What Changed
- Add a bounded queue for login pseudo-terminal output and exit frames
during route opening.
- Validate session ids, chunk types, and per-chunk limits before queue
insertion.
- Bound the queue by 10,000 frames and 8 MiB of characters.
- Charge retained worker session identifiers against the character
bound.
- Preserve arrival order and stop replay after the first valid exit.
- Drop repeated exits without changing the first exit position or code.
- Bound the repeat-exit lookup and clear queued state on all terminal
paths.
- Add regression tests and fixture support for coalesced frames,
ordering, limits, cleanup, and log safety.
- Pin issue numbers in the child-wake test so its expected child order
remains deterministic.
## Verification
- Build the plugin SDK with `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/plugin-sdk
build`.
- Run `npx vitest run
server/src/__tests__/plugin-worker-manager.test.ts` from the repository
root.
- Run `npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/issues-service.test.ts` from
the repository root.
- The focused plugin worker suite passes 66 of 66 tests at the prior
reviewed head.
- The issue service file passes 120 of 120 tests in two isolated runs at
the current head.
- Confirm that GitHub Actions passes all required checks.
- Confirm that Greptile reports 5/5 with no unresolved review threads.
- Storybook visual regression remains skipped because the PR has no
`storybook-visual` label.
## Risks
- The queue adds bounded memory use while the login pseudo-terminal
route opens.
- A queue limit breach closes the route and prevents unbounded
buffering.
- A hostile worker can fail only its own login route when it breaches a
bound.
- The first valid exit closes the route, so later records do not reach
the session.
- The child-wake test now uses distinct issue numbers to match the
service sort contract.
## Model Used
OpenAI Codex, GPT-5, extended reasoning, tool use, and code review
support. The runtime does not expose a separate context-window value.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The Paperclip Runner needs a narrow server trust boundary before an
adapter can start it.
> - The package has durable runner transport, but the server does not
host or authorize that transport.
> - Native persistence exists, but no writer connects PRP events to
those records.
> - A direct adapter must not enter this path by accident.
> - This pull request adds a hidden, run-bound PRP server coordinator.
> - The benefit is a recoverable server boundary that remains
unavailable to normal execution.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #11962
Refs #12129
Refs #12169
**Subsystem affected**
Cross-cutting. The change affects the runner package and server
orchestration.
**Problem or motivation**
The server cannot authenticate runnerd, commit PRP events before ACK,
authorize semantic tools, or enter native finalization from a durable
runner result. The application must have this hidden boundary before a
guarded adapter can use the runner.
**Proposed solution**
Add an authenticated PRP WebSocket authority and register it only for
one exact persisted native Codex run. Bind each connection and event to
the company, issue, agent, run, runner, session, turn, item, and
verified runner identity. Commit each event before its cumulative ACK.
Project only authorized same-task read tools. Rebuild the accepted
result and finalization record from durable result and terminal events.
**Alternatives considered**
The server could expose a broad runner API key or route semantic calls
through existing adapter endpoints. Those options grant too much
authority and weaken replay recovery. The server could also add the
user-facing adapter in this pull request. That option would mix rollout
selection with the transport trust boundary and make legacy
compatibility harder to review.
**Roadmap alignment**
This work supports the shipped enforced-outcomes, governed-tool, and
self-healing-run milestones. It does not add a new roadmap surface.
## What Changed
- Add the durable PRP server authority with one-use bootstrap tickets,
reconnect leases, encrypted frames, bounded state, cumulative ACKs, and
idempotent commands.
- Add `/api/runner/v1/connect/:runId`. Derive its `ws://` or `wss://`
URL from the configured Paperclip API URL.
- Register one authority only after the coordinator verifies the
complete native Codex run binding.
- Commit validated PRP events to `heartbeat_run_events` before ACK.
Reject source gaps and conflicting replays.
- Rebuild accepted results and finalization records from durable result
and terminal events. Enforce finalization owner leases and retry times.
- Project five same-task read operations. Recheck run, agent, task, and
company authority for each call.
- Keep the route hidden. No adapter selects this coordinator, and no
code starts runnerd.
- Vendor the compiled runner TypeScript runtime into the server package
while keeping the workspace package development-only for the server.
- Document the package, database writer, run-log payload, and credential
exclusions.
## Verification
- Run `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner check:all`. All
TypeScript protocol checks and 69 Vitest tests pass, including
commit-before-ACK crash recovery. All 43 Rust unit tests and 13 Rust
integration tests pass. Conformance and replay parity pass.
- Run the focused server WebSocket, coordinator, package-build, and
startup-wiring suites. All 26 tests pass, including a clean-checkout
reproduction with the runner `dist` directory absent.
- Run `pnpm -r typecheck`.
- Run `pnpm test:run`.
- Run `pnpm build`.
- Confirm that the diff contains 19 files. Confirm that it contains no
workflow or `pnpm-lock.yaml` change.
## Risks
- The server installs the WebSocket route at startup. An unregistered or
malformed run path fails closed and creates no native record.
- Bootstrap tickets are one use. The private state directory uses mode
`0700`, and the state file uses mode `0600`. The file stores derived
authentication verifiers and never stores raw tickets or lease tokens.
- The journal has explicit frame, command, event-window, and file-size
bounds. A bound violation closes the runner connection or rejects the
command.
- A runner event reaches the database before its ACK. A crash between
event commit and ACK causes a byte-equivalent replay, not a second
logical effect.
- The coordinator accepts only an existing queued or running native
Codex row with exact company, task, agent, runner, session, and
completion-contract ownership.
- Existing direct adapters do not call this service. They keep their
current execution, transcript, result, and finalization paths.
- The server has no production dependency on the private runner package.
Its build copies the compiled runtime into `server/dist`; the workspace
link is development-only. This adds no external package and does not
change the lockfile.
> For core feature work, check [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md) first and
discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. Feature PRs that overlap
with planned core work may need to be redirected — check the roadmap
first. See `CONTRIBUTING.md`.
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex with GPT-5. The exact deployment ID and context-window
size are not exposed. The model used agentic reasoning, repository
tools, code execution, and test execution.

releases</a>.</em></p>
<blockquote>
<h2>v1.7.0</h2>
<p><strong>Blog post:</strong> <a
href="https://better-auth.com/blog/1-7">Better Auth 1.7</a></p>
<h2><code>better-auth</code></h2>
<h3>❗ Breaking Changes</h3>
<ul>
<li>Moved database joins out of <code>experimental</code> into the
stable <code>advanced.database.joins</code> option (<a
href="https://redirect.github.com/better-auth/better-auth/pull/10359">#10359</a>)
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Migration:</strong> Replace <code>experimental: { joins: true
}</code> with <code>advanced: { database: { joins: true } }</code>.
Drizzle and Prisma users should regenerate their schema (<code>npx
auth@latest generate</code>) so it includes the required relations.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li>Scoped account identity by trusted issuer, keying accounts on
<code>(issuer, accountId)</code> (<a
href="https://redirect.github.com/better-auth/better-auth/pull/10403">#10403</a>)
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Migration:</strong> Accounts now require
<code>Account.issuer</code>. Read provider identity from
<code>accountInfo.account.accountId</code>, drop <code>mapping.id</code>
from SSO configs, and give the <code>microsoftEntraId</code> helper a
concrete tenant GUID. Apply the account-identity backfill in the 1.7
upgrade guide before deploying.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li>Required captcha endpoint entries to match full auth paths, with
wildcard support (<a
href="https://redirect.github.com/better-auth/better-auth/pull/10004">#10004</a>)
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Migration:</strong> Replace partial paths such as
<code>/sign-in</code> with explicit wildcards like
<code>/sign-in/*</code> or <code>/sign-in/**</code>.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li>Moved the MCP plugin into its own <code>@better-auth/mcp</code>
package built on the OAuth provider (<a
href="https://redirect.github.com/better-auth/better-auth/pull/9992">#9992</a>)
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Migration:</strong> Install <code>@better-auth/mcp</code> and
<code>@better-auth/cimd</code>, add the now-required <code>jwt()</code>
plugin, and move options nested under <code>oidcConfig</code> to flat
<code>mcp({ ... })</code> options. Rename <code>withMcpAuth</code> to
<code>requireMcpAuth</code> and <code>mcpHandler</code> to
<code>createMcpProtectedRequestHandler</code>. Regenerate the schema
(<code>npx auth migrate</code>): <code>oauthApplication</code> becomes
<code>oauthClient</code>, plus new <code>oauthRefreshToken</code> and
<code>oauthClientAssertion</code> tables.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li>Added OIDC back-channel logout so ending a session cuts off every
connected app's API access (<a
href="https://redirect.github.com/better-auth/better-auth/pull/9304">#9304</a>)
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Migration:</strong> Introspecting an access token whose
session has ended now returns <code>{ active: false }</code>, and
<code>/oauth2/userinfo</code> rejects it. Clients opt into notifications
by registering <code>backchannel_logout_uri</code>. Run the schema
migration for the new <code>oauthClient</code> and
<code>oauthAccessToken</code> columns.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li>Modeled OAuth protected resources explicitly, with per-resource
TTLs, scopes, claims, and signing pins (<a
href="https://redirect.github.com/better-auth/better-auth/pull/9648">#9648</a>)
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Migration:</strong> <code>validAudiences</code> is removed:
move each resource identifier into <code>resources</code> and link
restricted clients through <code>oauthClientResource</code>.
<code>@better-auth/mcp</code> now requires an explicit
<code>resource</code>. Run <code>npx @better-auth/cli generate</code>
and apply the migration before deploying.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li>Decoupled SCIM provisioning from the organization plugin (<a
href="https://redirect.github.com/better-auth/better-auth/pull/10390">#10390</a>)
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Migration:</strong> SCIM configuration, client APIs, database
schema, and the Group model are all replaced, and provisioning state
cannot migrate in place. Follow the SCIM cutover in the 1.7 upgrade
guide, including a full directory reprovision, before resuming
traffic.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li>Added OTP-only two-factor enablement with a discriminated
<code>enableTwoFactor</code> response (<a
href="https://redirect.github.com/better-auth/better-auth/pull/9057">#9057</a>)
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Migration:</strong> <code>enableTwoFactor</code> now returns
a <code>method</code> field (<code>"otp"</code> or
<code>"totp"</code>); narrow on it before reading
<code>totpURI</code> and <code>backupCodes</code>. Pass <code>method:
"otp"</code> for OTP enrollment, which requires
<code>otpOptions.sendOTP</code>.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li>Resolved the auth origin from <code>Host</code> by default when
using a dynamic <code>baseURL</code> (<a
href="https://redirect.github.com/better-auth/better-auth/pull/9134">#9134</a>)
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Migration:</strong> If your proxy exposes the public hostname
only through <code>x-forwarded-host</code>, set
<code>advanced.trustedProxyHeaders: true</code>. Deployments where the
proxy rewrites <code>Host</code> (nginx default, Vercel, Cloudflare,
Netlify) are unaffected.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li>Added unique lookup indexes for the device authorization
<code>deviceCode</code> and <code>userCode</code> columns (<a
href="https://redirect.github.com/better-auth/better-auth/pull/10059">#10059</a>)
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Migration:</strong> Resolve duplicate code values before
applying the migration. MySQL and SQL Server installations must also
convert both columns to bounded strings and clean up values longer than
191 characters.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li>Enforced S256 PKCE in the Electron sign-in flow and hardened
custom-scheme origin checks (<a
href="https://redirect.github.com/better-auth/better-auth/pull/9645">#9645</a>)
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Migration:</strong> Upgrade the
<code>@better-auth/electron</code> client and server together and add
your app's scheme to <code>trustedOrigins</code>. The
<code>code_challenge_method</code> parameter and
<code>disableOriginOverride</code> option are removed, and host-bearing
custom-scheme entries now match that host exactly.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li>Identified Microsoft Entra accounts by the stable <code>oid</code>
claim (<a
href="https://redirect.github.com/better-auth/better-auth/pull/10204">#10204</a>)
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Migration:</strong> Migrate existing Microsoft account rows
created from <code>sub</code> before upgrading. Tokens without a valid
<code>oid</code> are rejected.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li>Required a Google client ID before Google One Tap verifies ID tokens
(<a
href="https://redirect.github.com/better-auth/better-auth/pull/10036">#10036</a>)
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Migration:</strong> Configure <code>oneTap({ clientId
})</code> or <code>socialProviders.google.clientId</code>.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li>Removed the deprecated <code>oidcProvider</code> plugin (<a
href="https://redirect.github.com/better-auth/better-auth/pull/10031">#10031</a>)
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Migration:</strong> Move OIDC authorization-server
integrations to <code>@better-auth/oauth-provider</code>.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li>Rewrote the generic OAuth plugin as a first-class social provider
with OAuth 2.1 defaults (<a
href="https://redirect.github.com/better-auth/better-auth/pull/9069">#9069</a>)
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Migration:</strong> Replace <code>signIn.oauth2({ providerId
})</code> with <code>signIn.social({ provider })</code>,
<code>oauth2.link()</code> with <code>linkSocial()</code>, and drop
<code>genericOAuthClient()</code>. Callbacks move to
<code>/api/auth/callback/:id</code>, <code>pkce</code> now defaults to
<code>true</code>, and <code>issuer</code> and
<code>requireIssuerValidation</code> are removed in favor of OIDC
discovery.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li>Separated OAuth device grant ownership into
<code>oauthDeviceAuthorization()</code> (<a
href="https://redirect.github.com/better-auth/better-auth/pull/10746">#10746</a>)
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Migration:</strong> The OAuth integration replaces the
optional <code>resource</code> column with <code>oauthClientId</code>
and <code>resources</code>, so regenerate and apply the schema. Let
pending device codes expire before upgrading from an earlier 1.7
prerelease.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li>Verified provider <code>id_tokens</code> with a single shared
verifier (<a
href="https://redirect.github.com/better-auth/better-auth/pull/9828">#9828</a>)
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Migration:</strong> Custom <code>UpstreamProvider</code>
implementations replace the removed <code>verifyIdToken</code> method
with an <code>idToken</code> config carrying a JWKS source, issuer, and
audience. PayPal client <code>id_token</code> sign-in now returns
<code>ID_TOKEN_NOT_SUPPORTED</code>; its redirect flow is unchanged.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
</ul>
<h3>Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Added <code>clientAssertion</code> support to the Microsoft Entra ID
social provider (<a
href="https://redirect.github.com/better-auth/better-auth/pull/9898">#9898</a>)</li>

<a
href="4e8e4c7fc5"><code>4e8e4c7</code></a>
Thanks <a href="https://github.com/bytaesu"><code>@bytaesu</code></a>!
- Add <code>hydrateSession</code> to seed the client with a
server-fetched session so <code>useSession</code> returns data on the
first render.</p>

<p><a

<a

Thanks <a
href="https://github.com/gustavovalverde"><code>@gustavovalverde</code></a>!
- Anonymous account linking now works after social and generic OAuth
sign-in in Expo and other in-app browsers, where the OAuth callback
returns without the session cookie. <code>onLinkAccount</code> fires and
the anonymous user is migrated; before, it was silently skipped.</p>
<p>Plugins can now carry server-trusted data across an OAuth redirect
with the new <code>addOAuthServerContext</code> API, read back on the
callback via <code>getOAuthState().serverContext</code>. Unlike
<code>additionalData</code>, it cannot be set from the request body, so
it is the right place for values the server must trust.</p>
<p>For <code>@better-auth/oauth-provider</code>, the post-login
authorization query now travels through that server-only channel, so it
can no longer be injected through <code>additionalData</code>.</p>

<a

Thanks <a href="https://github.com/bytaesu"><code>@bytaesu</code></a>!
- The captcha plugin now requires endpoint entries to match full auth
paths unless they use wildcard patterns. This prevents requests like
<code>/sign-in//email</code> from bypassing captcha while preserving
trailing-slash matches like <code>/sign-in/email/</code>. To protect
multiple routes, replace partial paths like <code>/sign-in</code> with
explicit wildcards such as <code>/sign-in/*</code> or
<code>/sign-in/**</code>.</p>

- OAuth device grants now use <code>oauthDeviceAuthorization()</code>
alongside <code>oauthProvider()</code> or <code>mcp()</code>. This
single integration replaces both the standalone
<code>deviceCodeGrant()</code> plugin and the shared-grant
configuration. Standalone Device Authorization no longer accepts or
stores RFC 8707 resources, and <code>onDeviceAuthRequest</code> receives
only <code>clientId</code> and <code>scope</code>. The OAuth integration
rejects resource indicators that are not absolute, fragment-free
URIs.</p>
<p>The OAuth integration replaces the optional <code>resource</code>
column with <code>oauthClientId</code> and <code>resources</code>.
Regenerate and apply the schema when using it. Before upgrading from an
earlier 1.7 prerelease, let pending OAuth device codes expire or delete
them because they cannot be exchanged through the new integration.</p>

- Plugin database schemas can now define named or generated table-level
indexes across multiple fields. SQL migrations and generated Drizzle or
Prisma schemas resolve configured table and column names consistently,
while the MongoDB adapter creates the same indexes before the first
index-enforcing write.</p>

Device Authorization now creates unique database indexes for
<code>deviceCode</code> and <code>userCode</code>, so each generated
code must be unique in its column. Existing installations on every
adapter must resolve duplicate values before applying the migration.
MySQL and SQL Server installations must also convert both columns to
bounded strings and clean up values longer than 191 characters before
running it.</p>
<p>Generated codes are limited to 191 characters. Issuance makes up to 3
attempts to overcome unique-key collisions, then returns
<code>server_error</code> if it cannot create a unique
<code>deviceCode</code> and <code>userCode</code>. Default-generated
user codes accept case changes and readability separators during
verification, approval, and denial; custom codes outside the default
alphabet are matched exactly. The <code>/device</code> limiter allows 5
requests over a window equal to the configured code lifetime, while
<code>/device/token</code> polling keeps its separate interval
behavior.</p>

- Harden the Electron OAuth flow and tighten custom-scheme
trusted-origin matching.</p>
<p>The Electron sign-in flow now mandates PKCE S256. Plain PKCE is
rejected: the <code>code_challenge_method</code> parameter is gone and
every authorization code is verified by hashing the verifier with
SHA-256. The server no longer trusts an <code>electron-origin</code>
header to set the request Origin. The Electron client now sends a real
<code>Origin</code> (for example <code>myapp:/</code>), so upgrade the
<code>@better-auth/electron</code> client and server together and make
sure your app's scheme is in <code>trustedOrigins</code>. The unused
<code>disableOriginOverride</code> option is removed.</p>
<p>Custom-scheme entries in <code>trustedOrigins</code> now match by
scheme and authority instead of string prefix. A host-less entry such as
<code>myapp://</code> or <code>exp://</code> still trusts every host of
that scheme, but a host-bearing entry such as
<code>myapp://callback</code> matches that host exactly, so it is no
longer satisfied by <code>myapp://callback.attacker.tld</code>.</p>

feat(generic-oauth): add <code>refreshTokenParams</code> config to
forward extra params on token refresh</p>
<p>Multi-tenant OIDC providers (Zitadel multi-org, Auth0 with
<code>audience</code>) need to send extra body params on the refresh
call to rescope tokens without a full authorization redirect. The
generic-oauth plugin now accepts a <code>refreshTokenParams</code>
option (object or sync/async function) that is merged into the refresh
request body, with <code>grant_type</code> and
<code>refresh_token</code> protected from override. The function form
receives request metadata for the request that triggered the refresh, so
request-scoped data (headers, cookies) is available without out-of-band
state like AsyncLocalStorage.</p>
<p><code>UpstreamProvider.refreshAccessToken</code> now accepts an
optional second <code>ctx</code> argument; the change is backwards
compatible because existing implementations that take only
<code>refreshToken</code> remain valid. See <a

- Rewrite the generic OAuth plugin as a first-class social provider with
OAuth 2.1 security defaults. Providers now use
<code>signIn.social</code> + <code>callback/:id</code> instead of
dedicated plugin endpoints, with PKCE required by default (OAuth 2.1),
RFC 9207 issuer validation, OIDC auto-discovery with <code>openid</code>
scope injection, and typed provider IDs.</p>

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agent runs need durable records so Paperclip can explain results and
final status changes.
> - The current heartbeat tables support direct adapters, but they do
not model native runner evidence.
> - The runner transport and server coordinator must share a strict
finalization contract before they write production data.
> - This pull request adds that contract and its additive database
boundary.
> - It does not select the Paperclip Runner or change any existing
adapter execution path.
> - The benefit is a reviewable persistence layer that preserves all
current behavior and supports later guarded integration.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #11962
Refs #12129
## What Changed
- Add native run result, finalization, completion, assessment, status
decision, and status effect tables.
- Add inert native metadata to heartbeat runs and events. Keep `legacy`
as the default runtime mode.
- Bind each evidence relationship to one company, issue, run, contract,
result, assessment, and decision with composite constraints.
- Add a strict `paperclip.native_finalization.v1` shared type and
validator.
- Preserve database functions, triggers, and the unique indexes required
by foreign keys in JavaScript backups.
- Add migration, backup, mixed-owner denial, validator, and
direct-adapter compatibility tests.
- Document the new records and their ownership rules.
## Verification
- Run `pnpm -r typecheck`.
- Run `pnpm build`.
- Run `pnpm db:generate`. The schema output and migration safety checks
remain current.
- Run
`PAPERCLIP_PSQL_PATH=/Applications/Postgres.app/Contents/Versions/latest/bin/psql
pnpm exec vitest run
packages/shared/src/validators/native-finalization.test.ts
packages/db/src/client.test.ts packages/db/src/backup-lib.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-workspace-busy.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-comment-wake-batching.test.ts`. All 52
tests pass.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` run completed 4,688 tests. It found 30
existing macOS test-environment failures. A serial rerun with the
canonical `/private/tmp` path reduced those failures to six existing
listener-diagnostics and skill-browser cases. None of those suites use
files in this change.
- The full Linux GitHub Actions matrix passes. This includes all
general-server, serialized-server, workspace, browser, build, typecheck,
canary, and aggregate verification jobs.
- Greptile passes at 5/5. Contributor trust, Superagent, Socket, and
Snyk pass with no finding from this change.
- Storybook visual regression skips by path because this pull request
has no UI or Storybook change.
- Confirm that the diff contains 25 files. Confirm that it contains no
workflow or `pnpm-lock.yaml` changes.
## Risks
- The migration adds tables, columns, indexes, a function, a trigger,
and ownership constraints. It does not remove or rename existing data.
- Composite foreign keys reject mixed-company, mixed-issue, and
mixed-run evidence even when each ID exists.
- The status-version trigger runs only when an issue status changes.
Backup tests confirm that restore retains this trigger and its
dependencies.
- Native source identifiers are unique when present. Legacy event rows
remain unchanged.
- This change does not add a unique run sequence constraint. The later
native writer must allocate its sequence atomically before that
invariant can be safe.
- Existing adapters keep their current execution and finalization paths.
New heartbeat runs default to `legacy` mode.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agent runs execute inside the server container, and they spawn many
short-lived descendants: git, the adapter CLI, esbuild, sh
> - The server image sets `ENTRYPOINT ["docker-entrypoint.sh"]`, and
that entrypoint ends in `exec`, so node becomes PID 1
> - Node reaps only the children it spawned itself. It installs no
`SIGCHLD`/`waitpid` handler for orphans that the kernel re-parents onto
PID 1, so those orphans stay as zombies forever
> - Zombies accumulate monotonically. When the cgroup pid limit is
reached, every `fork()` in the container fails and the instance is dead
> - This pull request installs `tini` and makes it PID 1 in front of the
existing entrypoint, adds a behavioural test that proves reaping, and
adds a `pids_limit` backstop to both compose files
> - The benefit is that a long-running container no longer degrades into
total fork failure, and a future regression is caught by CI instead of
by an outage
Depends-on: none — this change is self-contained in the image build and
its tests, and it touches no other in-flight branch
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public GitHub issue exists for this defect. It was found on a live
long-running instance. Description follows the bug report template.
**What happened?**
The server container ran for 22 hours and reached 2039 of 2048 pids in
its cgroup. Of 1760 processes, 1731 were zombies, and all 1731 had PID 1
as their parent. PID 1 was `node --import
./server/node_modules/tsx/dist/loader.mjs server/dist/index.js`. Zombies
accrued at about 79 per hour and were never reaped. The oldest zombie
was 20.8 hours old against a container uptime of 22.0 hours, so nothing
had been reaped since boot. Once the pid limit was reached, `git` and
`gh` failed with `pthread_create failed: Resource temporarily
unavailable`.
**Expected behavior**
PID 1 reaps orphaned processes that the kernel re-parents onto it. The
pid count of a long-running container stays flat instead of growing
without bound.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start the server image without `docker run --init` and without `init:
true`.
2. Run agent work that spawns descendants which outlive their immediate
parent.
3. Read `/sys/fs/cgroup/pids.current` and count processes in `Z` state
over several hours.
4. The zombie count grows monotonically and every zombie has PPID 1.
**Relevant logs or output**
```
cgroup pids.current / pids.max : 2039 / 2048
total processes : 1760
zombies : 1731 (98.4%)
parent of every zombie : PID 1 (1731/1731)
PID 1 cmdline : node --import .../tsx/dist/loader.mjs server/dist/index.js
container uptime : 22.0 h
oldest zombie : 20.8 h median: 14.4 h
zombie names : git 717, claude 280, MainThread 167, sleep 141,
esbuild 138, postgres 76, sh 65, sccache 50
```
**Additional context**
The fix pattern is already in this repository.
`docker/agent-runtime/Dockerfile.base` installs `tini` and sets
`ENTRYPOINT ["/usr/bin/tini", "--"]`. It was never applied to the server
image.
## What Changed
- `Dockerfile`: install `tini` in the `base` stage and set `ENTRYPOINT
["/usr/bin/tini", "--", "docker-entrypoint.sh"]`. The entrypoint stays
in the exec chain, so UID/GID remapping, `gosu`, and graceful shutdown
are unchanged.
- `scripts/assert-orphan-reaping.sh` (new): a behavioural probe. It
spawns a leader that forks a grandchild, exits the leader, and asserts
that the orphaned grandchild leaves `Z` state instead of persisting. It
fails closed if the grandchild is not re-parented onto PID 1, so a pass
cannot mean the check ran too early.
- `.github/workflows/docker.yml`: run that probe against the pushed
image after the publish step. The publish step is multi-arch with `push:
true`, so nothing is loaded into the runner daemon and the pushed tag is
the only thing to test. The cloud variant is `FROM production` and
inherits the same `ENTRYPOINT`.
- `scripts/docker-build-test.sh`: run the same probe against a local
build.
- `docker/docker-compose.yml` and
`docker/docker-compose.quickstart.yml`: add `pids_limit: 2048` as a
backstop, so a future leak dies visibly at its own ceiling instead of
starving the host of pids.
- `server/src/__tests__/container-init-reaping.test.ts` (new): 13
assertions that guard the configuration the probe depends on.
No per-orchestrator init lever was added. The image owning PID 1 covers
compose, plain `docker run`, the quadlet units, and the ECS task
definition in one place. Adding `init: true` in compose or
`initProcessEnabled` on the ECS task would nest a second init around
`tini`, and `tini` then warns on every boot that it is not PID 1. The
new test asserts the absence of both levers across all three manifests,
so the decision survives the next edit.
## Verification
| Check | Result |
|---|---|
| `scripts/assert-orphan-reaping.sh` against a real init | Grandchild
re-parented to PPID 1, then reaped. Exit 0. |
| Same probe forced against a genuine zombie | Reports `Z` and fails.
The failure branch is not vacuous. |
| Config guard against the pre-fix files | Exactly the 3 relevant
assertions turn red. |
| Config guard with `tini` removed from `apt-get` but the comments kept
| Red. It checks the install, not a mention of the name. |
| `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/container-init-reaping.test.ts` | 13 passed |
| `npx tsc --noEmit -p server` | Clean |
| `node scripts/check-docker-deps-stage.mjs` | PASS |
| `node --test scripts/release-verify-workflow.test.mjs` | 8 passed |
Not verified locally: no container runtime is available in the authoring
environment, so the probe has not run against a build of this image. The
new `docker.yml` step runs it against the pushed image on this PR.
## Risks
Low risk, but it is an image and entrypoint change, so it affects
deployments.
- `tini` adds one small package to the `base` stage.
`docker/agent-runtime/Dockerfile.base` already installs it from the same
Debian archive.
- Signal handling changes shape: `tini` receives `SIGTERM` and forwards
it to the entrypoint, which `exec`s node. `tini` forwards signals to its
direct child by default, and the exec chain keeps node as that child, so
graceful shutdown is preserved. A reviewer should confirm this on a real
stop.
- `pids_limit: 2048` is new for compose users. A deployment that
legitimately needs more than 2048 processes would now hit the ceiling.
The measured steady state on a busy instance was under 400.
- If a deployment already passes `--init` or `init: true`, `tini` runs
under another init and prints a warning that it is not PID 1. Reaping
still works because the outer init handles it. The compose files in this
repository do not set `init: true`.
## Model Used
Claude Opus 5 (`claude-opus-5`), extended thinking, with tool use and
code execution in an agent harness.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Sandbox providers carry agent work through controlled execution
channels
> - The Daytona callback bridge uses a bespoke line-framed protocol over
its duplex channel
> - The bespoke protocol adds framing work and does not use the Node
transport that already supports multiplexed streams
> - This pull request carries raw bytes across the channel, adds a Node
HTTP/2 bridge, and selects it for Daytona
> - The benefit is one authenticated, multiplexed callback session with
queue_v1 as the bounded fallback
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**Subsystem affected**
The packages/plugins Daytona provider and the shared duplex execution
path.
**Problem or motivation**
The Daytona callback bridge uses a bespoke line-framed protocol over the
provider duplex channel. This adds protocol work and limits stream
handling.
**Proposed solution**
Carry raw bytes through the cross-layer channel. Add an authenticated
Node HTTP/2 host server and sandbox client gateway. Select http2_v1 for
Daytona and retain queue_v1 as the fallback.
**Alternatives considered**
Keep the current duplex_v1 protocol. This keeps the bespoke framing path
and does not provide one HTTP/2 session for callback streams.
**Roadmap alignment**
ROADMAP.md lists Daytona under cloud and sandbox agents. This change
improves the shipped Daytona provider path.
**Additional context**
The branch adds no dependency. Node 24 provides the http2 module. The
host token check and canonical path parser remain the single dispatch
path.
## What Changed
- Carry raw Uint8Array chunks through the adapter, plugin, worker,
runtime, and Daytona layers.
- Encode bytes as base64 only across the JSON-RPC hop, because JSON has
no binary type.
- Add the bounded host HTTP/2 server and the in-sandbox HTTP/2 client
gateway.
- Authenticate every stream with the per-run bridge token before route
work.
- Parse the path once and reuse the canonical result for route and
forwarding work.
- Select http2_v1 for Daytona and fall back once to queue_v1 when the
client preface is absent.
- Add transport, session, stream, and fallback telemetry.
- Mark HTTP/2 as the preferred transport and queue_v1 as the
soft-deprecated fallback.
## Verification
- `npx vitest run packages/adapter-utils/src` — 990 passed and 4
skipped.
- `npx vitest run
server/src/__tests__/plugin-worker-manager-duplex.test.ts` — 32 passed.
- `npx vitest run --config
packages/plugins/sandbox-providers/daytona/vitest.config.ts` — 220
passed and 6 skipped.
- `npx tsc --noEmit` in `packages/adapter-utils`, `packages/shared`,
`packages/plugins/sdk`, and `server` — clean.
- No `package.json` or `pnpm-lock.yaml` file changed.
- The live Daytona test skips when `DAYTONA_API_KEY` is absent.
- The root `npx tsc --noEmit` command has a pre-existing missing
`packages/adapters/droid-local` reference on this branch and on
`master`.
## Risks
- The transport change affects several duplex layers and could expose
byte-boundary errors.
- A missing HTTP/2 client preface falls back once to queue_v1 and
records `preface_missing`.
- The host token check and canonical path parser must remain on the
shared dispatch path.
- The live Daytona test needs `DAYTONA_API_KEY` and does not run in this
agent sandbox.
## Model Used
OpenAI GPT-5, tool-enabled coding agent with repository inspection,
GitHub CLI, and shell execution.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The runner package now has protocol, transport, provider, catalog,
and authorization foundations.
> - Its first upstream package boundary should expose only the
implemented runtime and test-helper surfaces.
> - Rust correctness belongs in the repository existing build
verification, without introducing a parallel release process.
> - Direct package creation must build the files declared by the package
manifest.
> - This pull request defines the minimal package API and verifies the
optimized runner binaries in the existing PR and release Build jobs.
> - The benefit is a production-ready runner package boundary with
minimal build-process change.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #11962
This pull request replaces one bounded part of the archived large runner
change. It follows the package-local authorization change in #12126.
## What Changed
- Export only `@paperclipai/paperclip-runner` and
`@paperclipai/paperclip-runner/testing`.
- Keep Node-only fixture loading and semantic conformance helpers out of
the runtime root.
- Add a provider-neutral semantic conformance kit with stable JSON
comparison and fail-closed input checks.
- Keep deferred SDK, eval, browser, React, lab, and command surfaces
private.
- Pin the runner Rust toolchain to 1.97.1 with the minimal profile and
`rustfmt`.
- Run the Rust workspace tests in release mode.
- Launch the optimized `paperclip-runnerd` and fake-harness binaries in
process-level integration coverage.
- Add one `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner check:all` step
to each existing PR and release Build job.
- Make the existing server `prepack` lifecycle run its existing build
after it prepares UI assets.
- Document that no production adapter starts runnerd yet.
This revision adds no standalone GitHub Actions job. It adds no server
runner dependency or runner vendoring. It adds no Docker bootstrap or
clean-consumer harness. It does not change `pnpm-lock.yaml`.
## Verification
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner check:all`
- 66 TypeScript tests
- 8 protocol contract tests
- 56 Rust unit and integration tests
- Release-mode integration coverage launches the optimized runnerd and
fake-harness binaries.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/server-package-build-script.test.ts` (2 tests)
- Clean `pnpm pack` from `server/` rebuilt the server and produced both
`package/dist/index.js` and `package/dist/index.d.ts`.
- `node --test scripts/__tests__/release-verify-workflow.test.mjs` (8
tests)
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm build`
- `pnpm check:token-gates`
- `git diff --check`
- No `pnpm-lock.yaml` diff.
- The diff changes 12 files.
## Risks
The runner adds Rust work to the existing Build jobs. These jobs can
take longer on a cold cache. The pinned toolchain makes contributor and
CI behavior reproducible. Cargo tests use `--release` to verify
optimized executables. The server prepack lifecycle now performs the
build that its published entry points require. This can make direct
server packing slower. This pull request does not wire runnerd into the
server. It does not select runnerd for any adapter. Existing application
execution and finalization paths remain unchanged.
## Model Used
OpenAI Codex with GPT-5. Agentic coding mode used repository tools, code
execution, and automated tests.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The adapter utilities package defines shared types for agent
execution targets
> - The type name EffectiveSandboxCapabilities describes only one
transport
> - All execution target drivers return the same resolved capability
snapshot
> - This pull request gives the snapshot a general name and keeps the
old type as a deprecated alias
> - The benefit is clearer public vocabulary with source compatibility
for current consumers
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What existing behavior does this improve?**
The exported capability snapshot type uses the name
`EffectiveSandboxCapabilities`, although local, SSH, sandbox, and plugin
drivers return it.
**Subsystem affected**
The change affects `packages/adapter-utils` and its server consumers.
**Current behavior**
The public type name points to the sandbox transport. The private parser
also uses the sandbox-only name.
**Proposed behavior**
Use `EffectiveExecutionCapabilities` for the public type and
`parseEffectiveExecutionCapabilities` for the private parser. Keep a
deprecated alias for the old public type.
**Reason and benefit**
The new name matches the established execution-target vocabulary. The
alias keeps existing type imports working during the migration.
**Breaking changes**
None. The runtime field, capability flags, parsed shape, and package
versions do not change.
**Additional context**
GitHub search found no duplicate or related open issue or pull request.
## What Changed
- Rename the exported interface to `EffectiveExecutionCapabilities`.
- Keep `EffectiveSandboxCapabilities` as a deprecated type alias.
- Rename the private parser and update its call site and references.
- Add a type-level test for the deprecated alias.
## Verification
- `npx tsc --noEmit -p packages/adapter-utils`
- `npx vitest run
packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target-sandbox.test.ts`
- `npx vitest run
server/src/__tests__/environment-execution-target-capabilities.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-execution-target-duplex.test.ts`
- The local checks passed with 133 adapter-utils tests and 31 server
tests.
- Reviewers can confirm that the runtime field and capability flags stay
unchanged.
## Risks
Low risk. The alias protects existing type imports. The change does not
alter runtime behavior or serialized data.
## Model Used
OpenAI Codex, GPT-5, tool use and code execution. The runtime does not
expose the context window size.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Paperclip records first-party events, OpenTelemetry data, and local
run-log events
> - The code and documents used one term for these three data paths
> - This naming made the required review level unclear
> - This pull request names each data path in the module names,
documents, and code comments
> - The benefit is a clear review rule without a runtime change
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**Issue type**
Unclear or confusing.
**Where is the issue?**
`packages/shared/src/telemetry/README.md`, `doc/observability.md`,
`doc/run-log-events.md`, and the duplex instrumentation modules.
**What's wrong?**
The repository used Telemetry for first-party events, OpenTelemetry
data, and local run-log events. This usage made the data path and review
level unclear.
**Suggested fix**
Use Telemetry only for Paperclip first-party events. Use Observability
for OpenTelemetry data. Use the run log for rows in
`heartbeat_run_events`.
Related public pull requests: #8476 and #9672.
## What Changed
- Rename the duplex instrumentation modules and identifiers from
`Telemetry` to `Observability`.
- Move the Observability and run-log contracts out of the Telemetry
README.
- Add `doc/observability.md` and `doc/run-log-events.md` as the
canonical documents.
- Add a file-path review rule to `AGENTS.md`.
- Correct the remaining code comments that name the wrong data path.
- Keep all event names, payloads, database records, spans, configuration
keys, environment variables, and runtime paths unchanged.
## Verification
- `npx vitest run packages/shared/src/telemetry/readme-contract.test.ts`
passes.
- `npx vitest run packages/adapter-utils/src/published-exports.test.ts`
passes.
- `npx vitest run
packages/adapter-utils/src/acpx-engine/startup-timing.test.ts` passes
with 42 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils typecheck` passes.
- `pnpm --filter server typecheck` passes.
- The old module name does not remain in TypeScript or JSON files,
except for the intentional publication guard.
- CI and Greptile checks remain pending after PR creation.
## Risks
- The old duplex module subpath no longer has a compatibility shim. The
board accepted this intentional hard break.
- The new duplex module subpath stays blocked from package publication.
- The change has no runtime effect. The main risk is an incorrect
document or module reference.
## Model Used
OpenAI GPT-5 Codex, exact model ID `gpt-5`, with tool use and code
review support.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Environment runtime drivers provide workspace, lease, and custom
image behavior
> - Runtime code used driver identity checks and several
capability-specific members
> - These checks spread capability rules across the runtime and made new
drivers harder to verify
> - This pull request adds one general capability classifier and one
static driver support table
> - The benefit is one fail-closed capability model that keeps current
behavior and supports future drivers
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What existing behavior does this improve?**
Environment runtime capability checks for workspace realization, custom
images, lease capabilities, and duplex authorization.
**Subsystem affected**
Cross-cutting (multiple of the above)
**Current behavior**
The runtime selects several capability paths from driver identity and
separate capability members. Custom image gates also trust provider
declarations without checking every matching live worker method.
**Proposed behavior**
The runtime uses one general capability classifier and one static
support table. Custom image gates require both the provider declaration
and every matching live worker method. The public capability names
remain unchanged.
**Reason and benefit**
The change keeps capability rules in one place. It removes identity
conditions from runtime consumers and makes unsupported drivers fail
closed.
**Breaking changes**
None. The public names sandboxCapabilities, sandboxProviders, and
EffectiveSandboxCapabilities remain available.
## What Changed
- Add classifyEnvironmentCapabilities and static support definitions for
all four driver families.
- Add resolveCapabilities to every environment runtime driver.
- Move driver traits into environment-driver-traits.ts and migrate
runtime consumers.
- Require provider declarations and matching live worker methods for all
custom image gates.
- Migrate duplex authorization to the general resolver and remove the
dead sandbox-only member.
- Delete the unused resolveEffectiveSandboxCapabilities wrapper and
update its test.
## Verification
- pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck
- pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/environment-capability-contract.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-runtime.test.ts — 92 tests pass
- pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/environment-driver-traits.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/general-capability-classifier.test.ts — 12 tests
pass
- pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/environment-custom-images-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-execution-target-capabilities.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-execution-target-duplex.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-execution-target-duplex-kill-switch.test.ts
— 66 tests pass
## Risks
The main risk is a capability gate that denies a valid driver or permits
an invalid driver. The static support matrix, live worker method checks,
and regression tests reduce this risk. No database, public API, or
published type name changes.
## Model Used
OpenAI Codex, GPT-5, with tool use and code execution. The deployment
does not provide a separate context-window value.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents report task state to the control plane with `PATCH
/api/issues/{id}` at the end of each heartbeat
> - On remote sandbox targets those writes cross a relay that can fail
at the connection level
> - An agent that pipes its status curl through `head` cannot see that
failure; the write is lost but the run reports success
> - The issue then stays `in_progress` with no disposition, and the
missing-disposition recovery must repair it
> - This pull request makes the issue-update helper verify every write,
and it teaches the shared skill to require verified writes
> - The benefit is that a lost status write becomes a visible, retried
failure instead of a silent success
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public issue exists for this defect. The description below follows
the bug report template.
**What happened?**
A sandboxed heartbeat run answered its issue in a comment. It then sent
`PATCH /api/issues/{id}` with `status: done` through `curl -sf ... |
head -c 400`. The relay dropped the connection. The `-f` flag suppressed
the error output, and the pipe replaced curl's exit code with the exit
code of `head`. The agent saw empty output and exit 0. It reported the
write as an "empty 2xx" success and exited. The issue stayed
`in_progress`, and the successful-run recovery had to close it in a
corrective run.
**Expected behavior**
A status write that does not reach the server must surface as a failure.
The helper script must retry transient failures. It must exit non-zero
when the write is unconfirmed. Skill guidance must forbid write patterns
that hide failures.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Point `PAPERCLIP_API_URL` at an endpoint that drops connections
intermittently.
2. Finalize an issue with `curl -sf -X PATCH
"$PAPERCLIP_API_URL/api/issues/$ID" -d '{"status":"done"}' | head -c
400`.
3. Observe exit code 0 with empty output while the server never received
the PATCH.
## What Changed
- `scripts/paperclip-issue-update.sh` now captures `%{http_code}`,
retries a retryable failure (connection-level, 429, 5xx) once — two
attempts total, which matches the shared bounded-write-retry rule —
rejects an empty 2xx body, and confirms the response echoes the
requested status before it exits 0.
- Failure output states plainly that the write was NOT saved, so the
calling agent reports it accurately.
- `skills/paperclip/SKILL.md` Step 8 adds a required "Verify writes —
never infer them" rule: a successful PATCH always returns the updated
issue JSON, disposition writes must never run through `head`/`tail`
pipelines, and an unconfirmed write must be reported as FAILED.
- `server/src/__tests__/paperclip-skill-utils.test.ts` pins the new
skill rule; a new `paperclip-issue-update-helper.test.ts` exercises the
helper's behavior end-to-end.
## Verification
- `bash -n scripts/paperclip-issue-update.sh`
- `server/src/__tests__/paperclip-issue-update-helper.test.ts` runs the
helper end-to-end against a local HTTP server: confirmed-echo success
(exit 0), empty 2xx (exit 1), wrong echoed status (exit 1), 422 reject
(exit 1, exactly one request), 503 then success (two requests),
connection refused (two attempts, then exit 1 with a "NOT saved"
report).
- `npx vitest run
server/src/__tests__/paperclip-issue-update-helper.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/paperclip-skill-utils.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/cli-invocation-safety.test.ts` — 50 passed.
## Risks
- Low risk. The success-path output is unchanged (the updated issue
JSON).
- The helper now exits non-zero on unconfirmed writes. Callers that
previously missed silent failures now see explicit errors. That is the
intended behavior change.
- The single retry re-sends the PATCH after a retryable failure. If the
first request committed and only its response was lost, an attached
comment can post twice. The duplicate is visible and benign; the prior
behavior lost the write silently.
## Model Used
- Claude Fable 5 (Anthropic), model id `claude-fable-5`, extended
thinking enabled, agentic tool use via Claude Code (CLI harness), 200k
context window.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Environments define where agent runs execute: local, SSH, or
provider sandboxes
> - Operators can create and edit environments, but the UI has no way to
delete one
> - The server already exposes `DELETE /environments/:id` and a
delete-blast-radius preflight, but no UI consumes them, and a delete
blocked by reusable sandbox leases gives the operator no path forward
> - This pull request adds the delete flow to the environment
configuration page: a preflight-driven modal that reassigns dependent
agents, names the workspaces that hold blocking sandbox leases, and can
destroy those sandboxes with explicit consent
> - The benefit is that operators can retire stale environments from the
UI without database surgery, and dependent agents move to a chosen
replacement instead of silently falling back
## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #11124
**Subsystem affected**
Environments (server routes, environment runtime service, and the
environment settings UI).
**Problem or motivation**
The environment configuration page has no delete control. The server
delete endpoint exists, but nothing in the UI calls it. When reusable
sandbox leases block a delete, the 409 error names no owner, so the
operator cannot find the blocking workspace. Agents that use the
environment as their default lose it silently through the FK `on delete
set null`.
**Proposed solution**
Add a delete button with a confirmation modal on the environment edit
page. The modal reads the delete-blast-radius preflight. It offers a
dropdown to reassign dependent agents to another environment before the
delete. It lists each workspace that holds a blocking reusable sandbox
lease, with a link. When those leases are the only blocker, the confirm
button destroys the sandboxes inline
(`?destroyReusableSandboxLeases=true`) and then deletes. A failed
teardown falls back to `pending_cleanup` for the sweep, so no sandbox is
orphaned.
## What Changed
- `ui/src/pages/CompanyEnvironments.tsx`: delete button on the edit page
header, confirmation modal with agent reassignment select, lease-holder
list, impact notes, and a consent-labeled destroy-and-delete action
- `ui/src/api/environments.ts`: `deleteBlastRadius` and `remove` client
methods; `remove` takes an optional `destroyReusableSandboxLeases` flag
- `server/src/routes/environments.ts`: `DELETE /environments/:id`
accepts `?destroyReusableSandboxLeases=true`; it destroys the
environment's reusable sandbox leases first, but only when those leases
are the sole delete blocker, then re-checks the blast radius before it
deletes
- `server/src/services/environment-runtime.ts`: new
`destroyReusableSandboxLeasesForEnvironment` — destroys every reusable
sandbox lease an environment still owns while the environment config
(provider credentials) is still available
- `server/src/services/environments.ts`: the delete blast radius now
returns `reusableSandboxLeaseHolders` (lease id, workspace, issue) so
clients can name what blocks a delete
- `packages/shared/src/types/environment.ts`:
`EnvironmentDeleteReusableLeaseHolder` type on the blast radius
- Tests: route gating for the consent flag (destroy runs, mixed-blocker
rejection, surviving-lease rejection), runtime destroy scoped to an
environment, blast-radius holder join, and UI tests for the reassignment
flow, holder links, and the consent button
## Verification
- `npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/environment-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-runtime.test.ts
ui/src/pages/CompanyEnvironments.test.tsx`
- Manual: open Settings → Environments → edit an environment. The trash
icon opens the modal. With agents on the environment, pick a
reassignment target and confirm; agents move and the environment
deletes. With reusable sandbox leases, the modal names the holding
workspaces and the confirm button reads "Destroy N sandboxes and
delete".
## Risks
- The consented path destroys provider sandboxes. It runs only when
reusable leases are the sole blocker, so a delete that would still be
rejected never destroys anything. A failed teardown routes to
`pending_cleanup` and the delete stays blocked until the sweep resolves
it.
- Agent reassignment issues one PATCH per agent from the client. A
mid-sequence failure leaves some agents reassigned; the reassignments
are valid on their own and the UI refreshes to the actual state.
- Hard blockers (managed local, instance default, pending cleanup) keep
the existing 409 behavior and disable the confirm button.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Plugins extend the server with sandbox providers, tools, and jobs; a
loader activates them at boot
> - When activation fails, the loader marks the plugin `error` and skips
it on every later boot
> - Activation failures are often environmental — missing package
dependencies, a stale build output, a module that moved under a pull —
and the fix lands on disk without any write to the plugin row
> - The plugin therefore stays dead forever, and every feature behind it
(sandbox destroys, cleanup sweeps, probes) silently stops working until
an operator flips the row by hand
> - This pull request makes `loadAll` retry errored plugins once per
boot: flip to `ready`, attempt activation, and re-record the error if
the attempt fails
> - The benefit is that a plugin recovers on the next boot after its
environment is fixed, with no manual database or lifecycle intervention
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What happened?**
Several sandbox-provider plugins sat in `error` status for weeks after a
transient activation failure (a module resolution error from an older
checkout state). The boot loader only loads plugins in `ready` status,
so it never retried them. Environments backed by those providers lost
sandbox destroys, cleanup sweeps, and probes with no visible signal
other than the stale `last_error`.
**Expected behavior**
A plugin whose activation failure has been fixed on disk recovers on the
next server boot. A plugin that still fails stays in `error` with a
fresh error message.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Install a plugin whose worker cannot start (for example, delete one
of its dependencies), then boot the server. The plugin lands in `error`
status.
2. Restore the dependency.
3. Restart the server. Before this change, the plugin stays in `error`
forever. After this change, the boot retries it and the plugin
activates.
## What Changed
- `server/src/services/plugin-loader.ts`: `loadAll` also fetches plugins
in `error` status, flips each to `ready`, and activates it with the
normal batch. The flip runs before activation because the `error` status
only legally transitions to `ready` or `uninstalled`; a retry that
failed while still in `error` could not re-mark itself. A failed flip
logs a warning and never aborts the boot load. The stale comment at the
`markError` site now describes the retry.
- `server/src/__tests__/plugin-loader-error-retry.test.ts`: covers the
flip-then-retry flow, the failed-flip isolation, and the empty case.
## Verification
- `npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/plugin-loader-error-retry.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/bundled-plugins.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/plugin-lifecycle-restart.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/cloud-image-bundled-plugins.test.ts`
- Manual: mark an installed plugin's status to `error`, restart the
server, and observe the loader log line `retrying plugins that failed
activation on a previous boot` followed by a successful activation (or a
fresh `last_error` if the plugin is genuinely broken).
## Risks
- A genuinely broken plugin now costs one bounded activation attempt per
boot (the attempts run in parallel with the ready batch under
`Promise.allSettled`). It cannot crash-loop within a running process,
and it returns to `error` with a fresh message.
- The flip clears `last_error` before the attempt. If the process dies
between the flip and the activation, the row is `ready` with no error
text; the next boot simply loads it as a ready plugin.
- Operators who relied on `error` as a manual "keep this off" latch
should use the `disabled` status, which this change does not touch.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Paperclip keeps agent lifecycle changes behind control-plane
authorization
> - Plugins can create agents in a paused state until an operator
activates them
> - An agent with a direct configuration grant could not resume these
agents
> - A paused plugin-managed agent also had no stable provenance in its
pause reason
> - This pull request adds one protected resume path and preserves every
other lifecycle gate
> - The benefit is safe recovery from plugin provisioning without a
broad permission change
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #8168. That pull request uses a role capability and also opens
clear-error. This change uses the current grant system and keeps
clear-error closed.
**What happened?**
A plugin can create a paused managed agent. An agent actor cannot resume
that agent, even when the actor has a direct `agents:configure` grant.
The paused agent can also have a null pause reason.
**Expected behavior**
An agent with a direct `agents:configure` grant can resume an accessible
paused agent. An agent without that grant cannot resume it.
Plugin-managed paused agents show stable plugin provenance. A completed
resume stays in effect after reconcile.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Install a plugin that declares a managed agent with `status: paused`.
2. Give a same-company agent a direct `agents:configure` grant.
3. Call `POST /api/agents/{id}/resume` with the granted agent key.
4. On the base revision, observe a board-only authorization error.
**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at `63df7ad2b3`.
**Deployment mode**
All deployment modes. This is a server authorization and reconcile
behavior.
## What Changed
- The resume route now uses the protected `agent_config:update` decision
with `requiresChangeGrant: true` for agent actors.
- The route keeps board access, tenant non-disclosure, and invalid
organization-chain protection.
- Resume activity now records the real user or agent actor, run, and API
key.
- Plugin-managed paused agents now receive a stable provenance reason
and pause time at creation.
- Reconcile backfills only a null reason on an agent that is still
declared and stored as paused.
- Reconcile preserves manual, budget, system, and other pause reasons.
It does not pause a resumed agent again.
- The implementation specification now records the narrow resume
exception.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/agent-cross-tenant-authz-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/plugin-managed-agents.test.ts` passed: 2 files and
26 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed.
- `pnpm build` passed.
- GitHub CI passed all policy, typecheck, build, test, e2e, canary, and
security gates on commit `306edf469c`.
- Greptile reviewed all 5 changed files. Its check passed with 0
comments and 0 unresolved threads.
- The host uses Node 22.22.2. The repository requests Node 24.11 or
newer, so pnpm printed engine warnings.
- A broad `pnpm test:run` attempt did not complete its general-server
group. Runtime port fixtures failed because host port `52000` was
already bound. The isolated failing fixture reproduced the same port
conflict. The focused feature tests passed before and after the final
commit.
## Risks
The main risk is an unintended lifecycle permission increase. The change
limits agent access to resume only. It requires a protected
direct-change decision. It does not open pause, clear-error, terminate,
approval, or key-management routes. Tests cover denial, self-denial,
tenant isolation, organization-chain checks, and activity attribution.
There is no database migration.
> This change fixes a narrow gap in the completed plugin, approval, and
activity-log roadmap areas. It does not add a new roadmap feature.
## Model Used

execution. The runtime did not expose its context-window size.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agent adapters use provider-specific login flows
> - Codex device login needs a live pseudo-terminal (PTY), while the
shared channel still uses Claude-specific names
> - The old streamed-exec path does not provide the prompt transport
that Codex needs
> - This pull request moves Codex device login to the shared login PTY
and removes the dead streamed-exec path
> - The benefit is one controlled login transport with fail-closed
capability checks and safer credential reads
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**Problem or motivation**
Codex device login used a streamed-exec path that did not provide the
required prompt transport. The shared login channel also exposed
Claude-specific names outside Claude code.
**Expected behavior**
The host selects a fixed login command from trusted adapter data. Codex
login uses the provider login PTY. Providers without that capability
fail closed.
**Proposed solution**
Use a server-controlled session home, create and validate it as a fresh
0700 directory, read credentials from one validated descriptor, and
rename shared channel names to the neutral login PTY family.
**Alternatives considered**
Keep the shared login PTY as the single transport. Do not keep the
removed streamed-exec path because it cannot provide the required prompt
transport.
**Roadmap alignment**
This change supports the planned login transport work. It does not add a
separate roadmap item.
## What Changed
- Route Codex device login through the shared login PTY transport.
- Select the login command from a closed internal command key.
- Carry a server-controlled session home through the launch contract.
- Create and validate the session home as a fresh 0700 directory owned
by the login user.
- Read the credential file with descriptor-relative, no-follow path
walking and final descriptor checks.
- Gate the login route and run lease on the provider login PTY
capability.
- Rename shared channel names to the neutral login PTY family.
- Remove the streamed-exec transport value, selector field, driver
branch, and related tests.
- Hide Codex login in the user interface when the provider lacks the
login PTY capability.
## Verification
- Server unit suites pass: 89/89.
- Adapter-utils suites pass: 262/262.
- Codex-local suites pass: 326/326.
- Credential-read reader suite passes: 20/20.
- Daytona login PTY suite passes: 30/30.
- Device-login suites pass: 56/56.
- TypeScript checks pass for server, adapter-utils, and UI.
- GitHub Actions must pass after pull request creation.
- Greptile review must reach 5/5 with no open P2 findings,
recommendations, or follow-ups.
## Risks
- Providers without a login PTY capability lose Codex login support by
design.
- The credential read rejects invalid ownership, mode, type, path, and
size.
- The launch-time sandbox directory race remains outside the threat
model because the login runs inside the sandbox and a hostile sandbox
already controls its credential.
## Model Used
OpenAI Codex, GPT-5, tool use and code review assistance. The exact
context window and reasoning mode are not exposed by the runtime.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents resume blocked work through the `issue_blockers_resolved`
wake when every durable blocker is `done`
> - That wake is level-triggered: one ready state produces one wake,
shared by the issue update route, workspace-finalize backstop, and
periodic liveness backstop
> - The ready-state key hashed only the dependent id and blocker set, so
it ignored a later reset from a terminal status back into `blocked`
> - After that reset, completing the same blockers found the previous
cycle's completed wake and suppressed the new continuation
> - This pull request folds the dependent's `blockedTransitionAt` into
the ready-state key, with compatibility for old no-cycle keys
> - The benefit is that a reset blocked issue receives exactly one new
wake without watchdog status repair or a change to blocker edges
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs: https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/issues/5985
Refs: https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/issues/6555
Related: https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/8009
Related: https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/11570
This change does not auto-flip `blocked` to `todo`. The wake is the
continuation. It also does not treat cancelled blockers as resolved.
**What happened?**
A blocked assigned issue that was previously `done` or `cancelled`, then
reset to `blocked` on the same blocker set, did not receive
`issue_blockers_resolved` when those blockers later returned to `done`.
A completed wake from the previous cycle reused the same level-triggered
state key and suppressed the new wake. Route-time emit,
workspace-finalize backstop, and periodic liveness backstop all used
that helper.
**Expected behavior**
When every durable blocker is `done`, a currently `blocked` assigned
issue must receive exactly one valid `issue_blockers_resolved`
continuation for the current blocked cycle. A completed wake from an
earlier cycle must not suppress it. Watchdog `blocked` → `todo` repair
must not be required.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Assign issue B, block it on issue A, mark A `done`, and let B receive
`issue_blockers_resolved`.
2. Mark B `done`.
3. Reset A to `todo` and reset B from `done` to `blocked` on the same A
id. This refreshes `blockedTransitionAt`.
4. Mark A `done` again.
5. Observe that B stays `blocked` with no new `issue_blockers_resolved`
wake.

**Deployment mode**
Self-hosted server
## What Changed
- Extend `buildIssueBlockersResolvedWakeStateKey` so the digest includes
the dependent's `blockedTransitionAt` as UTC ISO-8601, or `none`
- Thread `blockedTransitionAt` through `listWakeableBlockedDependents`,
both route emit sites, and both backstop candidate selects
- Keep compatibility: new cycle-aware keys suppress in idempotent
statuses; old no-cycle state keys suppress when in-flight, or when
completed and `requestedAt >= blockedTransitionAt` (or the cycle is
null); legacy per-edge keys stay in-flight-only
- Do not rewrite `blockedByIssueIds`, auto-flip `blocked` → `todo`, or
delete historical wake rows
- Add helper, route, restore, chained dependent, and backstop tests for
the reset cycle
## Verification
```
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run \
src/__tests__/issue-dependency-wakeups-routes.test.ts \
src/__tests__/heartbeat-issue-liveness-escalation.test.ts \
src/services/issue-dependency-wakeups.ts \
src/services/issue-dependency-wakeups.test.ts
```
Local result: all named tests passed (helper 9, routes 8, liveness 26).
## Risks
- Deploy overlap: in-flight and same-cycle completed wakes still exist
under the old no-cycle key. The lookup keeps those as suppressors so
this change does not enqueue a duplicate in the current cycle.
- A completed old-key wake from before the current `blockedTransitionAt`
no longer suppresses. That is the intended fix.
- No schema migration. Rollback is revert of this PR.
- This does not change cancelled-blocker semantics or watchdog `blocked`
→ `todo` repair.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**Subsystem affected**
This change affects packages/adapter-utils and server duplex
orchestration.
**Problem or motivation**
Many routes can each stay below their per-route limits while their
combined retained bytes exceed a safe process budget.
**Proposed solution**
Add a process-owned aggregate byte ledger. Charge route data, broker
bytes, decoder buffers, and readiness replay bytes before allocation.
Release each charge during cleanup. Use a separate sandbox_process
decoder cap for the in-sandbox path.
**Alternatives considered**
Keep only per-route limits. This does not bound the combined process
use. Set a fixed limit at one call site. This misses retained bytes in
other duplex paths.
**Roadmap alignment**
This is a tightly scoped reliability and resource-safety improvement. It
does not duplicate a roadmap feature.
**Additional context**
The aggregate ceiling uses a safe 256 MiB default. An invalid override
falls back to that default and reports the rejected value.
## What Changed
- Add a process-owned aggregate byte ledger for duplex route resource
use.
- Charge and release route data, broker forward and response bytes,
decoder buffers, and readiness replay bytes.
- Bound host-to-worker pending writes and standard input transport
bytes.
- Add a separate decoder cap for the sandbox_process path.
- Make invalid aggregate-ceiling overrides fall back to the safe default
without host startup failure.
- Add adapter-utils and server tests for charging, release, rejection,
cleanup, and many-route aggregate limits.
## Verification
- pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils exec tsc --noEmit
- pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsc --noEmit
- Run the focused adapter-utils duplex ledger and execution-target
tests.
- Run the server aggregate-ledger route test.
- Confirm all required pull request checks pass on this branch.
## Risks
The ledger touches several duplex buffer paths. A missed release could
reduce later capacity until process restart. The tests cover charge,
release, rejection, cleanup, and route aggregation. The change uses a
safe default when configuration input is invalid.
## Model Used
OpenAI GPT-5 Codex. The runtime model ID and context window are not
exposed to this task. The model used tool calls, shell commands, and
code review workflow support.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Paperclip runs agent work through adapters and sandbox providers
> - The Daytona duplex path sends host input through a provider
pseudo-terminal WebSocket
> - Large messages exceed the provider limit, and a transport close can
look like a process exit
> - This pull request chunks UTF-8 input and carries transport-close
state through the duplex path
> - The benefit is reliable large input and accurate loss reporting
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What happened?**
The Daytona duplex path sent a full input payload as one WebSocket
message. A payload above the provider limit closed the channel. The wait
path also mapped a non-numeric exit result to a process exit without
exit data.
**Expected behavior**
The provider must receive large input as ordered UTF-8 chunks. A
transport close without exit data must record `transport_closed`, while
a numeric exit must record `provider_exit`.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a Daytona duplex session.
2. Send an input payload larger than 65536 bytes.
3. Observe that one message closes the provider channel.
4. End a session without a numeric exit code.
5. Observe that the loss reason reports a process exit.
**Paperclip version or commit**
Commit `1761e79ec9097c65d94f90a8ba20416f8ab718a6`.
**Deployment mode**
Built from source with the Daytona sandbox provider.
## What Changed
- Add a shared UTF-8 byte chunker with a 32768-byte cap.
- Route both Daytona pseudo-terminal write paths through the chunker.
- Preserve multi-byte UTF-8 sequences across read-side chunks.
- Carry an explicit `transportClosed` state through the worker and host
wait paths.
- Record `transport_closed` for a reason-less transport close and
`provider_exit` for a numeric exit.
- Keep orderly completion suppression for both exit paths.
## Verification
- The Daytona plugin suite passes 194 tests.
- The adapter-utils broker, codec, and telemetry suites pass 73 tests.
- The plugin SDK duplex and worker RPC host suites pass 37 tests.
- The server plugin worker manager duplex suite passes 78 tests.
- The execution target sandbox and ACPX execute suites pass 257 tests.
- TypeScript checks pass for adapter-utils, plugin SDK, server, and the
standalone Daytona plugin.
## Risks
The chunk size adds a loop for large input payloads. The 32768-byte cap
stays below the provider limit. The optional loss field preserves
compatibility for other providers.
## Model Used
OpenAI Codex, GPT-5, extended reasoning, tool use, and code execution.
The runtime does not expose a separate context-window value.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The recovery service restores execution when a task loses its live
path.
> - The service retries the original agent for a limited number of
attempts.
> - The old fallback could select a manager or an executive and wake
that agent.
> - That fallback changed the effective recovery owner without a board
decision.
> - This pull request keeps the source owner and gives the exhausted
recovery decision to the board.
> - The benefit is a clear ownership rule with no automatic task
takeover.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs: #11807
Refs: #11817
**What existing behavior does this improve?**
This improves stranded-task recovery in the server and the recovery
action card in the board UI.
**Subsystem affected**
Cross-cutting: server recovery orchestration, recovery observability,
board UI, and execution documentation.
**Current behavior**
Paperclip retries the original agent for a limited number of attempts.
After the retry limit, it can select a manager, task creator, CTO, or
CEO as a recovery owner. It can then wake that substitute agent. The
source task keeps its assignee, but the automatic substitute wake
creates an implicit takeover path.
**Proposed behavior**
Paperclip keeps the limited retry path for the original agent. If
recovery is exhausted or unsafe, Paperclip creates one board-owned
source recovery action. It keeps both source assignee fields. It does
not wake a substitute agent. The board can repair, retry the original
owner, explicitly reassign, or resolve the task.
**Reason and benefit**
Source task ownership must remain stable until a person or an approved
policy changes it. The new rule removes implicit manager and executive
takeover. It also gives operators clear evidence through the
`board_escalation_no_takeover_v1` routing marker.
**Breaking changes**
Automatic recovery no longer wakes a manager or executive after the
original-agent retry limit. Existing active agent-owned recovery actions
remain visible and can resolve. Paperclip does not schedule a new
takeover wake for those legacy actions.
## What Changed
- Route exhausted and unsafe stranded recovery to a board-owned source
action.
- Preserve agent and user assignee fields during automatic escalation.
- Keep limited same-agent continuity repair and provider quota
monitoring.
- Stop new manager, creator, CTO, and CEO recovery wakes.
- Keep legacy agent-owned recovery actions readable and resolvable.
- Add the routing marker to new board escalation evidence and
observability.
- Update recovery notices, the board UI card, tests, and execution
documentation.
## Verification
- Run `pnpm -r typecheck`.
- Run `pnpm build`.
- Run `pnpm check:token-gates`.
- Run `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts`.
- Run `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-workspace-branch-containment.test.ts`.
- Run the focused recovery and UI Vitest files changed by this pull
request.
- Confirm that a paused or over-budget source owner creates one board
action, keeps the source assignee, and creates no substitute wake.
## Risks
- Operators must now make the final recovery decision after the
original-agent limit.
- Legacy agent-owned actions use their stored contract. This avoids a
rollout-time ownership rewrite.
- No database migration or API response shape changes are included.
- The tests cover concurrent escalation, paused and over-budget owners,
legacy actions, provider quota monitoring, and UI presentation.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Sandbox adapters provide controlled execution for untrusted provider
environments.
> - The sandbox channel needs one persistent duplex transport with
strict host control.
> - The transport must remain off unless the instance setting and

and inspectable transport results.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public issue exists for this change. The related pull requests are
#11738 and #11750.
**Problem or motivation**
The sandbox duplex channel needs a host-controlled broker, strict
transport gates, bounded provider input, and safe loss telemetry.
Without these controls, a provider can cause replay, resource growth,
unsafe endpoint selection, or data exposure through telemetry.
**Proposed solution**
Add a host broker with nested time limits, request limits, one-shot
loss, and per-id deduplication. Select duplex transport only when the
instance setting and provider capability both equal true. Assign the
endpoint and nonce on the host. Reject invalid readiness data and use
the file bridge on failure. Add fixed redacted telemetry and a
real-process end-to-end test harness.
**Alternatives considered**
Keep the file bridge as the only transport. This avoids new channel
behavior but does not provide persistent duplex operation for supported
sandbox providers.
**Roadmap alignment**
This change supports the Cloud / Sandbox agents section in ROADMAP.md.
## What Changed
- Add the duplex bridge broker with bounded forward, response, and
gateway wait budgets.
- Bound concurrent requests, lifetime requests, and request-id bytes
before retention or forwarding.
- Select duplex transport only when both required gates are true.
- Assign the loopback port and nonce on the host and enforce a
liveness-only READY frame.
- Fall back to the file bridge after invalid readiness, contamination,
bind failure, or timeout.
- Carry the kill switch through the server, acpx engine, and six local
adapters.
- Add fixed, redacted duplex telemetry with a provider allowlist.
- Add a real-process end-to-end harness for readiness, round trips,
loss, and teardown.
- Add regression coverage for limits, loss, UTF-8 splits, concurrency,
and telemetry dimensions.
## Verification
- Adapter-utils, server, and Daytona typechecks pass locally.
- Adapter-utils tests pass, including the codec, broker,
execution-target sandbox, and real-process harness.
- Server kill-switch tests pass.
- Live Daytona tests pass with the required provider key and skip
without that key.
- The root pnpm-lock.yaml file has no diff.
- The branch contains ten commits after origin/master.
## Risks
- Duplex transport remains disabled unless both gates equal true.
- A provider remains an untrusted boundary and needs least-privilege
credentials and quotas.
- The server telemetry recorder stays deferred; the default recorder
does nothing.
- A provider that pre-binds the host port causes a fail-closed fallback
to the file bridge.
- The change adds no database migration and changes no root lockfile.
## Model Used
OpenAI GPT-5, exact model family GPT-5, large context window, reasoning,
and tool use. The model assisted with Git handoff validation and PR
preparation. The implementation commits came from the engineering
worktree.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Closes#9911. That pull request reports the same defect and was opened
first, on 2026-07-20. Its checks have been red since that day, because
its inline issue description does not use the label format the gate
parses. It has had no author activity since. This pull request keeps
that author's test-fixture commit, with the author unchanged, and adds
NUL-delimited parsing, adoption-boundary tests, and fail-closed Darwin
registry handling. Maintainers may prefer to land #9911 instead. I will
close this one again if they do.
This pull request replaces #11600, which I closed earlier as a
duplicate. It carries the same work, rebased onto current `master`, with
the review feedback from that pull request applied.
No public issue exists. The problem follows.
**What happened?**
On macOS, `readLocalServiceProcessCwd` returned `null`. Startup
reconciliation found a live port owner, but it could not verify the
working directory. It rejected the candidate and recorded the live
service as stopped.
**Expected behavior**
Paperclip adopts a healthy port owner when the working directory is
inside the requested workspace. Paperclip rejects the process when the
working directory is outside the workspace, or when it cannot be read.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Build Paperclip from source on macOS.
2. Start a shared workspace runtime service on an automatic port.
3. Remove the runtime registry state while the service stays alive.
4. Run startup reconciliation.
5. Read the result. Unpatched `master` reports `adopted: 0` and
`stopped: 1`.
**Paperclip version or commit**
This branch is based on `master` at
`7c8064da1b35527865c1d523c9f0016e304ae46d`.
**Deployment mode**
Local development from source.
**Installation method**
Built from source with pnpm.
**Operating system**
macOS 26.4, Darwin 25.4.0, arm64.
**Node.js version**
Node.js 22.22.2 on macOS. Node.js 24.19.0 on Linux. pnpm 9.15.4.
## Darwin Registry Adoption Now Fails Closed
This pull request changes one existing Darwin registry-adoption behavior
in addition to enabling port-owner adoption.
Before this change, `readLocalServiceProcessCwd` always returned `null`
on Darwin. `isLocalServiceRegistryCwdCompatible` treated a null cwd as
compatible on every non-Linux platform, so a service with an existing
registry record could still be adopted when its port owner, process
group, and command matched, even though Paperclip had not verified the
process's real working directory.
Darwin can now inspect the process cwd through `lsof`. If that
inspection returns `null` — including a missing `lsof`, a command
failure, or missing cwd output — registry-backed adoption now fails
closed and the stale registry record is removed.
This is a deliberate behavior change. It prevents a failed Darwin cwd
probe from silently falling back to trusting stored registry metadata.
The no-registry port-owner path already rejected a null cwd before this
pull request, so its failure behavior has not changed.
## What Changed
- Add a Darwin branch to `readLocalServiceProcessCwd`.
- Run `lsof -a -d cwd -p <pid> -F0n` to read the process working
directory.
- Parse the NUL-delimited field output.
- Do not trim the path. Do not split it on newlines. A directory name
can contain a trailing space or a newline, and a changed path would name
a different directory.
- Keep the Linux `/proc/<pid>/cwd` path unchanged.
- Return `null` for an invalid pid, a missing `lsof`, a command error,
or missing output.
- Reject a Darwin registry record when the working directory cannot be
read. Darwin can now read it, so a failed read means the check failed.
It no longer means the platform has no way to check.
- Keep the registry fallback only on platforms that cannot read a
process working directory.
- Run the existing foreign-workspace rejection test on macOS.
- Add a test: Paperclip adopts a port owner inside the workspace when no
registry record exists.
- Add a test: Paperclip rejects a listener in a sibling directory that
differs only by a trailing space.
- Add helper tests for newline and whitespace parsing, an invalid pid,
and a missing `lsof` binary.
- Resolve the branch-containment temporary repository root before the
path comparison. This test-only commit comes from #9911 and keeps its
author.
## Verification
Head of this branch: `2be1b74746d8a0db4b680062f0c57995a6ff3912`.
**Linux, on this head**
```sh
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run \
src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts \
src/__tests__/heartbeat-workspace-branch-containment.test.ts
```
Result: 138/138 pass. `workspace-runtime.test.ts` is 132/132.
`heartbeat-workspace-branch-containment.test.ts` is 6/6.
**macOS, on this head**
macOS 26.4, Darwin 25.4.0, arm64, Node.js 22.22.2, pnpm 9.15.4.
- Controlled baseline: `workspace runtime startup reconciliation >
adopts a live auto-port shared service after runtime state is reset`
fails on the rebase base `7c8064da1b35527865c1d523c9f0016e304ae46d` and
reports `adopted: 0`, `stopped: 1`. The same test passes on this head.
That test uses the normal managed start path, which starts the service
detached.
- Focused working-directory, registry, adoption, and boundary tests: 8/8
pass.
- `heartbeat-workspace-branch-containment.test.ts`: 6/6 pass. Two
assertions failed before the fixture change, because `/var/...` and
`/private/var/...` name the same macOS directory.
- Server typecheck: pass.
- Full `workspace-runtime.test.ts`: 131/132 pass.
The one failure is `realizeExecutionWorkspace > records teardown and
cleanup operations when a recorder is provided`:
```text
expected: /var/folders/...
received: /private/var/folders/...
```
I ran that same test alone on the rebase base `7c8064da`, with no patch
applied, and got the identical failure. It is a pre-existing macOS
fixture that builds a path from `os.tmpdir()` and compares it against a
realpath. It does not run the changed adoption path. This description
does not claim the whole file is green on macOS.
**macOS listener evidence**
In the `adopts a port owner running inside the workspace when the
registry record is gone` scenario, the auto-port listener bound port
`54360`:
```text
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
node 6808 <local-user> 12u IPv4 0xee4e36b2c8c094cf 0t0 TCP 127.0.0.1:54360 (LISTEN)
```
To hold the listener open long enough to capture this, that one
diagnostic run added a temporary pause, which exceeded the Vitest
timeout. The pause was reverted, the unmodified test was run again on
this head, and it passed 1/1. The process and the port were then
released.
Note for maintainers: an existing test already covered this defect. That
test never runs on macOS, because CI runs on Linux. A macOS job would
have caught it in July.
## Risks
Low risk.
- Linux keeps the existing procfs implementation.
- Other platforms keep the existing registry fallback.
- macOS makes one extra `lsof` call, and only when it must read a
process working directory.
- A probe failure returns `null`.
- Darwin port-owner adoption and Darwin registry adoption both fail
closed.
- The parser keeps significant whitespace and embedded newlines.
- There is no database migration and no API change.
## Model Used
Claude Opus 5 (`claude-opus-5`), with extended thinking, tool use, and
code execution. It wrote the original implementation and the adoption
tests, reviewed the branch, ran the Linux test suite, rebased onto
current `master`, and prepared this text. OpenAI GPT-5.6-sol, through
Hermes Agent, added the failure-mode coverage and ran the macOS checks.
A human reviewed the change and controls publication.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What happened?**
A pull request preparation run could not pin its execution workspace to
an exact existing branch. Workspace reuse and cleanup could also confuse
worktree creation with branch ownership.
**Expected behavior**
The run must attach only to the requested branch in an isolated Git
worktree. It must fail if the branch is missing, busy, or inconsistent.
Cleanup must not delete a branch that Paperclip does not own.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Create a branch that contains completed work.
2. Configure a pull request preparation task to use that branch.
3. Start the task and observe that the prior policy cannot require the
exact branch.
**Paperclip version or commit**
This behavior reproduces on the base revision before this pull request.
**Deployment mode**
Local development with isolated Git worktrees.
## What Changed
- Add `existingBranch` to the execution workspace policy and shared
validation contracts.
- Require `existingBranch` to use an isolated Git worktree and reject
conflicting branch templates.
- Attach to the exact branch without creating, renaming, resetting, or
deleting it.
- Track branch ownership separately from worktree creation and use that
ownership during cleanup.
- Return HTTP 422 for invalid existing-branch settings on every
issue-producing route.
- Add a bounded repair script for existing pull request preparation
tasks.
- Add focused policy, route, heartbeat, runtime, and ready-comment
tests.
- Document the exact-branch behavior and safety rules.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/execution-workspace-policy.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-workspace-session.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-existing-branch-validation-status.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts
server/src/services/workspace-runtime-exposure.test.ts
server/src/services/workspace-runtime-ready-comment.test.ts` passed 335
tests.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed for all workspace projects.
- `pnpm test:run` passed 4,431 tests. Two unrelated embedded-Postgres
setup hooks timed out under aggregate load. Their isolated rerun passed
74 tests.
- `pnpm build` passed for all workspace projects.
- The two review regressions passed with 139 unrelated tests skipped.
- All latest-head CI gates passed after one unrelated timing-sensitive
test passed on rerun.
- Greptile scored the latest head 5/5 with no unresolved review threads.
## Risks
- Invalid workspace settings now return HTTP 422 instead of a generic
validation response.
- The exact branch must already exist and must not be checked out by
another worktree.
- The new policy fails closed when it cannot prove branch identity or
ownership.
- This change has no database migration.

## Model Used
OpenAI Codex from the GPT-5 family assisted with this change. The
runtime did not expose its exact deployment ID or context window. The

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Execution workspaces give each run an isolated directory and a
selected base ref
> - A remote-only base ref can fail before `git worktree add` when the
ref is not local
> - A setup failure before adapter dispatch must block the run without
an agent-only retry
> - This pull request resolves both remote-tracking ref forms and bounds
recovery for the same unresolved ref
> - The benefit is correct workspace setup and no repeated pre-adapter
recovery loop
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
This PR has no existing public issue. It addresses a workspace setup
bug.
**What happened?**
A remote-only base ref could fail before `git worktree add`. A setup
failure before adapter dispatch could also queue an agent-only
missing-comment retry.
**Expected behavior**
Paperclip must resolve `fix/foo` and `origin/fix/foo` before it creates
a worktree. An unresolved ref must create a human-owned configuration
blocker. Paperclip must not queue an agent-only retry when the adapter
never starts.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Configure an execution workspace with a base ref that exists only on
the remote.
2. Start a run that creates a fresh worktree.
3. Repeat the run with the same unresolved ref.
4. Observe one configuration blocker and no repeated agent-only recovery
action.
**Paperclip version or commit**
`7664e323189bc219d8cbe00433b2e82b682b0504`
**Deployment mode**
Built from source with `pnpm dev`.
**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Not adapter-specific. The failure occurs before adapter dispatch.
**Database mode**
Not database-related.
**Access context**
Both board and agent execution paths can use execution workspaces.
Related public pull request: `Refs #11123`.
## What Changed
- Resolve remote-only base refs with the authenticated fetch helper
before `git worktree add`.
- Support both unqualified refs and remote-tracking refs.
- Raise a `configuration_incomplete` blocker when the requested ref
remains unresolved.
- Suppress missing-comment retries when setup fails before adapter
dispatch.
- Add the requested ref to the recovery fingerprint to bound identical
recovery actions.
- Add focused tests and update the execution semantics document.
## Verification
- `tsc --noEmit` passed for the changed server code.
- Focused Vitest suites passed, including four base-ref tests,
fingerprint deduplication, and pre-adapter retry suppression.
- GitHub Actions must run the full pull request gate.
## Risks
Low risk. The change affects workspace setup before adapter dispatch.
Existing worktree reuse remains unchanged. An unresolved ref now creates
a clear configuration blocker instead of starting an adapter run.
## Model Used
OpenAI GPT-5; exact model ID `gpt-5`; agentic tool use and repository
review.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Managed deployments provision a platform-managed default environment
for agent runs; the UI shows this environment in selectors, the agent
form, run details, and the environments page
> - Those surfaces append the raw driver key to the environment name, so
users see labels like "Paperclip Computer (sandbox)", "Paperclip
Computer · sandbox", and fallback copy such as "Managed sandbox" and
"The sandbox has no ready authentication"
> - "sandbox" is infrastructure vocabulary, not the product name of the
environment; showing it next to the managed environment's name is
confusing and off-brand
> - This pull request renders platform-managed environments by name
alone and rewords the sandbox-phrased copy, while user-created
environments keep the driver suffix so mixed lists stay distinguishable
> - The benefit is that the default environment reads as one clear
product name everywhere, and self-hosted users lose nothing: their own
environments still show the driver
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What existing behavior does this improve?**
Display of the platform-managed default environment across the UI.
**Subsystem affected**
UI (environment selectors, agent config form, environments page, agents
page, run details) and the claude-local/codex-local adapter auth checks.
**Current behavior**
The agent form labels the inherited default environment as "Name
(sandbox)". Environment selectors and the environments list render "Name
· sandbox". The agents page describes the environment as "<provider>
sandbox provider". The agent form's fallback label is "Managed sandbox".
Adapter auth checks say "The sandbox has no ready authentication for
this adapter."
**Proposed behavior**
Platform-managed environment rows (`metadata.managedByPaperclip`) render
their name alone. The fallback label is "Paperclip Computer". The agents
page describes managed environments as "Managed by Paperclip". Run
details omit the driver suffix for sandbox-driver environments (the
adjacent Provider entry already identifies the mechanism). Adapter auth
checks say "This environment has no ready authentication for this
adapter."
**Reason and benefit**
The managed environment carries a product name. Appending the raw driver
key ("sandbox") to it is noise and contradicts the product naming.
User-created environments keep the driver suffix, so mixed lists stay
distinguishable.
**Breaking changes**
None. Message text of the auth check is not read programmatically; the
UI keys off `ADAPTER_AUTH_MISSING_CHECK_CODE`. Rows without the managed
marker render exactly as before.
## What Changed
- New `environmentDisplayLabel` helper in
`ui/src/lib/managed-sandbox-environment.ts`: managed rows → name alone;
other rows → "Name · driver".
- `AgentConfigForm`: inherited-default label uses the helper; fallback
copy "Managed sandbox" → "Paperclip Computer"; environment options use
the helper.
- `ProjectProperties`, `CompanyEnvironments`: environment selector
options use the helper; the environments-list row hides the driver
suffix on managed rows; the managed detail page's fallback description
no longer says "sandbox".
- `Agents` page: managed environments are described as "Managed by
Paperclip" instead of "<provider> sandbox provider".
- `CommentThread` run details: the driver suffix is omitted for
sandbox-driver environments.
- claude-local and codex-local adapters: auth-missing check message/hint
reworded from "sandbox" to "environment" (ACP and environment-test
paths); claude-local probe/effort/login hints reworded the same way.
- Run status lines: "Syncing workspace to sandbox", "Exporting git
changes from sandbox", "Starting adapter in sandbox", and friends now
say "environment"; "Finalizing sandbox workspace" → "Finalizing
workspace". Templated transfer-progress lines map the `sandbox`
transport key to "environment" for display (`runtime-progress.ts`).
- Agent form sign-in panel: "Sign in to the sandbox" → "Sign in to the
environment"; "Authenticated. The sandbox has credentials now." → "…The
environment has credentials now."
- Feature catalog + instance settings card: "Managed Sandbox Only" →
"Managed Environment Only" (setting key unchanged; the card keeps its
alphabetical slot).
- Server agents routes: execution-target failure and test-identity copy
no longer say "sandbox"; workspace-mode label "Cloud sandbox" → "Cloud
environment".
- Tests: new `environmentDisplayLabel` unit cases; new `AgentConfigForm`
render case asserting the managed default renders without "(sandbox)" or
"· sandbox"; status-line assertions updated across adapter-utils, server
heartbeat/live-run, and UI chat suites.
## Verification
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` — clean.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-claude-local typecheck` and
`--filter @paperclipai/adapter-codex-local typecheck` — clean.
- `vitest run` for `managed-sandbox-environment.test.ts`,
`AgentConfigForm.render.test.tsx`, `CompanyEnvironments.test.tsx`,
`Agents.test.tsx`, `CommentThread.test.tsx`, `NewAgent.test.tsx` — all
green (118 tests across the two runs).
## Risks
Low risk. Cosmetic label changes only; no data or API changes. Rows
without `metadata.managedByPaperclip` render exactly as before, so
self-hosted deployments with their own environments see no change. The
only self-hosted-visible wording changes are the adapter auth-check
message and the driver suffix omission on sandbox-driver rows in run
details.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip uses duplex routes to carry data from plugin workers.
> - PR #11860 added the product fix for buffered data after an early
route end.
> - The fix needs a regression test for a listener that binds after the
byte cap ends the route.
> - This pull request adds that test and protects the fix from later
regressions.
> - The benefit is clear test coverage for late-listener delivery.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
This pull request adds regression coverage for the fix in [PR
#11860](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/11860).
The product fix already exists on `master`. Before that fix, a late
listener could receive no data after the byte cap ended the route. The
test sends two three-byte `€` chunks to a route with a four-byte cap,
waits for route end, then binds the listener. It expects the first valid
chunk.
## What Changed
- Add one server regression test for late-listener delivery after
byte-cap route termination.
- Keep the product code unchanged in this pull request.
## Verification
- The test passes on the current branch.
- PR #11860 merged the product fix into `master` at commit
`33eb68b3ae4ce7ee27b31c59bd41db600ad47d19`.
- GitHub CI passes on the current head.
- Greptile reports 5/5 with no blocking finding.
## Risks
Low risk. This pull request changes one test file and no product code,
schema, public API, or authentication flow.
## Model Used
OpenAI GPT-5. Runtime model ID: GPT-5. Context window: not exposed in
this run. Capabilities used: repository review, GitHub operations, and
tool use. The implementation came from the engineer's authorized test
commit.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Adapter Test checks whether an agent adapter can run with its
configured environment, and every local-driver adapter (Claude, Codex,
Gemini, OpenCode, Pi, Cursor, etc.) shares this Test route and its UI
resolution logic
> - The Claude ACP Test lane could report pass without checking local or
remote authentication, and the shared Test route and UI had gaps in
environment binding, probe safety, and managed-sandbox resolution that
affect every adapter that uses the Test button, not only Claude
> - This pull request verifies authentication on every Claude ACP
target, and closes the shared Test-route/UI gaps: tenant-binding on the
route, a managed-sandbox-only redirect that matches the real run path,
and a three-tier environment resolution in the UI
> - The benefit is a truthful Test result with safer probe execution and
tenant isolation, for Claude specifically and for every other local
adapter that shares this Test surface
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What happened?**
The Claude ACP Test lane returned `status: "pass"` without checking
authentication for some local and non-sandbox targets. Separately, the
shared `/companies/:companyId/adapters/:type/test-environment` route —
used by every local-driver adapter, not only Claude — accepted a foreign
environment id, and its UI resolution did not mirror the server's
managed-sandbox-only redirect.
**Expected behavior**
The Test lane checks the resolved credential and hello probe for every
Claude ACP target. The shared adapter Test route rejects a foreign
environment before it reveals environment details or starts a lease, for
any adapter type. The Test's environment resolution (UI and server)
matches the real run's three-tier resolution, including the
managed-sandbox-only redirect.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run the Claude ACP Test lane against a local target without a valid
credential.
2. Run the adapter Test route with an environment id from another
company (any adapter type).
3. Observe the pass result on step 1, or the missing tenant-binding
rejection on step 2.
**Paperclip version or commit**
`933749e01f74e82ce5d315c071be534d04e01158`
**Deployment mode**
Local dev (`pnpm dev`) and server route tests.
**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Claude Code directly (the ACP auth-verification work). The
tenant-binding guard, managed-sandbox-only redirect, and UI three-tier
resolution apply to the shared adapter Test route and affect every
local-driver adapter (Codex, Gemini, OpenCode, Pi, Cursor, etc.), not
only Claude — see "What Changed" below for the split between Claude-only
and shared changes.
**Database mode**
Not database-related.
**Access context**
Both board and agent paths use the affected Test surface, for every
local-driver adapter.
**Additional context**
Two commits that were previously bundled into this PR — a
`plugin-worker-manager` duplex-channel frame-bound fix and a
`workspace-runtime` exit-persist crash fix — are unrelated to the
adapter Test lane and have been split out into their own PRs: #11860 and
#11861.
## What Changed
Claude-only (`packages/adapters/claude-local`):
- Verify `CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN` and run the hello probe for every
Claude ACP target.
- Keep `adapter_auth_missing` sandbox-only and report missing
non-sandbox credentials as a warning.
- Add a deny-by-default probe environment builder for the ACP and CLI
local probes.
- Log only fixed probe context and allowlisted classifications.
- Seed the host OAuth token into the hello probe environment.
Shared, cross-adapter (`server/src/routes/agents.ts`,
`ui/src/lib/adapter-test-environment.ts`,
`ui/src/components/AgentConfigForm.tsx`,
`ui/src/components/OnboardingWizard.tsx`):
- Add a company-binding guard and a binding assertion for the generic
`/companies/:companyId/adapters/:type/test-environment` route, so a
foreign-company environment id is rejected before any secret resolution
or sandbox lease, for every adapter type.
- Resolve all three server environment tiers (agent default, instance
default, local default) in the UI, and add the managed-sandbox-only
redirect so the Test probes the same target a real run would use.
- Enforce onboarding Test results: block hire on a failed environment
test.
- Add regression tests for authentication, tenant binding, probe safety,
diagnostics, and UI resolution.
## Verification
- Adapter suites pass for the Claude local server probe, remote, ACP,
auth, probe environment, and config paths.
- Server route tests pass, including the five tenant-binding cases.
- UI adapter Test environment resolver tests pass for all three
resolution tiers.
- Adapter package `tsc --noEmit` exits 0.
- Full CI must pass on this pull request.
## Risks
The probe environment now denies caller variables by default. A required
variable that is not on the allowlist could stop a probe from starting.
The route now rejects foreign environment ids with a fixed 403 response.
The managed-sandbox-only redirect changes where the Test (and the login
affordance) probes for every local-driver adapter under that policy, not
only Claude — operators running other local adapters under
managed-sandbox-only will see their Test target move from local to the
managed sandbox, matching what real runs already do. The change limits
secret and diagnostic exposure.
## Model Used
Original implementation: OpenAI Codex, GPT-5; exact context window not
exposed in that run; tool use and code execution.
This revision (commit split and title/description correction): Claude,
Sonnet 5 (claude-sonnet-5). The original title and description described
this PR as Claude-only; review found it also changes the shared adapter
Test route and UI resolution used by every local-driver adapter, and
carried two unrelated server fixes. Claude split those two commits into
#11860 and #11861 via `git rebase --onto` (verified byte-identical to
the original tree minus those commits) and rewrote this description to
reflect the actual scope. No functional code in this PR was authored by
Claude.

## Thinking Path

work.

container images.

baseline, adds a drift check, and gives users actionable startup
guidance when their runtime is too old.
> - The benefit is one clear runtime contract for development, release,
installation, and published packages.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #2734
Refs #11727
Refs #739
## What Changed
- Require Node.js 24.11.0 or newer in all 42 package manifests and
runtime checks.
- Use Node.js 24 in GitHub Actions, Docker images, smoke images, sandbox
setup, portable installs, and esbuild targets.
- Align every direct `@types/node` declaration on `^24.0.0`.
- Prevent Dependabot from opening major `@types/node` upgrades without a
matching runtime decision.
- Add `.nvmrc` and a CI policy check for Node version drift.
- Update ACP version gates, tests, and user documentation for the new
minimum.
- Print a non-blocking warning on CLI and server startup when Node is
unsupported, with remediation through a version manager or the
documented downloaded `install.sh` workflow.
- Deduplicate that warning when `paperclipai run` boots the CLI and
server in the same process.
## Verification
- `node scripts/check-node-version-policy.mjs`
- `node --check scripts/check-node-version-policy.mjs`
- `node --check cli/esbuild.config.mjs`
- `node --check scripts/generate-npm-package-json.mjs`
- `bash -n scripts/install.sh scripts/test-install-sh-docker.sh
scripts/e2e-install-lifecycle.sh`
- Parsed all 42 package manifests and confirmed `engines.node` is
`>=24.11.0`.
- `git diff --check`
- `vitest run
packages/adapter-utils/src/sandbox-install-command.test.ts` passed with
3 tests.
- `vitest run cli/src/node-version.test.ts` passed with 4 tests.
- Directly exercised the shared warning helper for unsupported-version
messaging and same-process deduplication.
- The focused exe.dev suite could not resolve the locally unbuilt plugin
SDK from this isolated worktree. A full offline workspace install was
also blocked because the package-manager signature verifier requires
registry access. The full suite was not run locally; draft CI performs a
clean install and evaluates the wider impact.
## Risks
- This is a breaking runtime change for users, plugins, and deployments
that still use Node.js 20 or 22.
- Published workspace packages will now produce an engine warning or
failure in strict package managers on older Node.js releases.
- Node.js 24 can reveal dependency, native module, Playwright, or agent
CLI compatibility issues in CI.
- The bootstrap installer now installs Node.js 24 when the current
runtime is older than 24.11.0.
- The portable sandbox fallback is pinned to Node.js 24.11.0 and depends
on that upstream tarball remaining available.
- Unsupported runtimes continue booting after a warning, so a later
incompatibility can still fail at its point of use.
- The CLI and server share the warning policy through the published
`@paperclipai/shared` package; packaging checks must keep that subpath
export available.
- This PR does not commit `pnpm-lock.yaml` because repository policy
assigns lockfile generation to CI.

buffered bound, and keeps the buffered chunks across a route end
> - The benefit is a duplex route that enforces its bounds and preserves

## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No existing GitHub issue covers this. Filing it directly here, following
the bug report template.
**What happened?**
Two duplex channel route bounds in
`server/src/services/plugin-worker-manager.ts` did not hold when the
data and exit frames arrived in the open-reply read batch, before the
route bound:
- The pre-open hold and the pre-bind buffered-frame bound shared one
limit. When a caller lowered the buffered bound, the hold dropped the
overflow frame as a protocol error before the buffered bound could end
the route, so the route never ended.
- The route end discarded the buffered chunks. A frame can end the route
during the replay, before a listener attaches, and the chunks the host
accepted before that frame are valid data.
**Expected behavior**
The pre-open hold uses its own ceiling, above the buffered bound, so the
replay after the bind lets the buffered bound end the route. A route end
keeps the buffered chunks so a listener that attaches after the end
still drains them.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Open a duplex channel where the worker batches several data frames
with the open reply.
2. Lower `maxPreBindBufferedFrames` below the batch size.
3. Observe the route fails to end on the buffered-frame bound, or a
listener that attaches after an end-during-replay never receives the
chunks buffered before that end.
**Paperclip version or commit**
`933749e01f74e82ce5d315c071be534d04e01158`
**Deployment mode**
Local dev (`pnpm dev`) and server unit tests.
**Agent adapter(s) involved**
None — this is host/plugin-worker transport infrastructure, not
adapter-specific.
**Database mode**
Not database-related.
**Access context**
Any board or agent path that runs a plugin worker over a duplex channel
route.
## What Changed
- Give the pre-open frame hold its own ceiling
(`MAX_DUPLEX_CHANNEL_PRE_OPEN_HOLD_FRAMES`), separate from the pre-bind
buffered-frame bound, so lowering the buffered bound still ends the
route instead of being pre-empted by the hold.
- Keep the buffered chunks on a route end instead of discarding them, so
a listener that attaches after an end-during-replay still drains the
data the host already accepted.
- Add two regression tests that batch frames with the open reply, so
both bounds run through the pre-bind path deterministically.
## Verification
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/plugin-worker-manager-duplex.test.ts` — 24/24 tests pass,
including the two new regression cases.
## Risks
Low risk. This only changes bound bookkeeping on an internal transport
path (frame hold ceiling and end-time buffer retention); it does not
change the wire protocol or any public API. The new ceiling is a
constant above the existing buffered bound, so pre-open holds are still
capped.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A runtime service (e.g. a dev server an agent started) runs as a
child process tracked against a project row
> - When that child exits on its own, the host records its terminal
status in the database as a detached, best-effort persist
> - A caller can delete the project (or company) while the child still
runs, so the `project_id` foreign key rejects that persist, and the
detached write had no error handler, turning the rejection into an
unhandled crash
> - This pull request wraps the exit-time persist in a try/catch and
logs the failure instead of crashing the host
> - The benefit is a host that survives a project deleted out from under
a still-running runtime service, instead of taking down the whole
process on an unrelated cleanup
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No existing GitHub issue covers this. Filing it directly here, following
the bug report template.
**What happened?**
`registerRuntimeService`'s child `exit` handler in
`server/src/services/workspace-runtime.ts` runs a detached, unawaited
persist of the terminal service status. If the parent project row was
deleted while the service was still running, the `project_id` foreign
key rejects the write. The detached persist had no error handler, so the
rejection surfaced as an unhandled promise rejection and could crash the
host.
**Expected behavior**
The exit-time persist is best effort: every error inside it is caught
and logged, so a foreign-key rejection (or any other persist failure)
never crashes the host.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a runtime service tied to a project.
2. Delete the project (or company) while the service is still running.
3. Let the child process exit on its own.
4. Observe the detached persist throws an unhandled foreign-key error.
**Paperclip version or commit**
`933749e01f74e82ce5d315c071be534d04e01158`
**Deployment mode**
Local dev (`pnpm dev`) and server unit tests (embedded Postgres).
**Agent adapter(s) involved**
None — this is runtime-service lifecycle infrastructure, not
adapter-specific.
**Database mode**
Embedded/managed Postgres — the fix concerns the `project_id` foreign
key on the runtime-service table.
**Access context**
Any board or agent path that starts a runtime service (e.g. a dev
server) tied to a project that can later be deleted.
## What Changed
- Wrap the exit-handler's `cleanupRecordExposure` /
`removeLocalServiceRegistryRecord` / `persistRuntimeServiceRecord`
sequence in a try/catch; log a warning on failure instead of letting the
rejection escape.
- Terminate real child processes in the embedded-postgres test teardown
before the row deletes, so a left-over child does not exit later and
write a row that references an already-deleted project.
## Verification
- `cd server && npx vitest run src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts`
covers the new exit-persist-after-parent-delete regression case. This
suite spins up embedded Postgres and did not finish inside this review's
local time budget, so I did not confirm a local pass — deferring to CI,
which runs it as part of the normal server test job.
## Risks
Low risk. The change only adds error handling around an existing
best-effort, detached persist — it does not change the happy-path
behavior or the persisted schema. A persist failure is now logged
instead of crashing the host, which is strictly safer.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The instance settings surface (Access, Plugins, Adapters, General,
Experimental) assumes the person at the keyboard operates the whole
instance
> - Operators who host Paperclip for others — a managed cloud or an
internal shared server — expose settings pages and toggles that do not
apply to their deployment, and the related mutation APIs stay open
> - A hosted tenant can open Plugins or Adapters, try an action, and hit
a confusing failure, because only a few hardcoded platform floors exist
> - This pull request adds a generic, operator-configured visibility
mechanism: one env var hides declared settings surfaces in the UI and
floors their mutation routes with a stable 403 code
> - The benefit is a clean hosted-tenant settings surface for any
operator, with zero behavior change for normal self-hosted instances
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**Subsystem affected**
Instance settings (server routes and UI), the shared settings registry
in `packages/shared`, and the `/api/health` bootstrap payload.
**Problem or motivation**
An operator who hosts Paperclip for other people cannot hide settings
surfaces that the platform manages. Tenants see Access, Plugins, and
Adapters pages, backup retention, and host-level experimental toggles
that do nothing useful for them. The mutation APIs behind these surfaces
also stay open, so a tenant admin can attempt actions the platform must
control. ROADMAP.md names a cleaner shared deployment story as a goal
("Teams should be able to run the same product in hosted or semi-hosted
environments without changing the mental model").
**Proposed solution**
Add a declarative registry of hideable settings surfaces and one env
var, `PAPERCLIP_HIDDEN_SETTINGS`. The server parses the list at boot,
reports it on `/api/health`, and rejects value-changing writes to hidden
surfaces with a stable `settings_operator_managed` 403 code. The UI
reads the list from the health payload and removes the hidden pages,
sections, and toggles from navigation, routes, and page content. Unknown
keys warn and are ignored, so one list can roll across a fleet with
mixed app versions. With the variable unset, behavior is byte-identical
to today.
**Alternatives considered**
- Hardcode the hidden set for cloud instances in this repo: rejected,
because each hosting operator needs a different policy, and policy does
not belong in shared code.
- Deliver the hidden set through the managed-config document: rejected,
because that channel is cloud-specific and fail-closed on unknown
fields; a plain env var works for any operator, including self-hosted
shared servers.
- Lock the controls with a badge instead of hiding them: rejected for
these surfaces, because they are meaningless to tenants, not merely
platform-controlled; the existing managed-overlay lock stays the right
tool for controlled flags.
**Roadmap alignment**
Supports the "shared deployment story" item in ROADMAP.md: hosted and
semi-hosted deployments keep the same product with a settings surface
that matches what the tenant can actually do.
## What Changed
- New `packages/shared/src/settings-visibility.ts`: registry of hideable
surfaces (every instance settings page — profile, environments, access,
heartbeats, experimental, plugins, adapters; every Instance → General
section; every experimental flag as `instance.experimental.<key>`), the
`PAPERCLIP_HIDDEN_SETTINGS` parser, and the `settings_operator_managed`
error code. The General page stays visible as the settings root and
redirect target.
- New `server/src/services/settings-visibility.ts`: parse-once accessor;
unknown keys log one warning and are ignored.
- `/api/health` reports `hiddenSettings` on every response shape; the
field is omitted when nothing is hidden.
- Server floors on hidden surfaces, with same-value echo tolerance (the
`executionMode` precedent): field-backed general sections and
experimental keys reject value-changing PATCHes, and hiding the whole
Experimental page floors every toggle; plugin lifecycle and config
writes, adapter management writes, and the Access admin routes (reads
included) return 403 `settings_operator_managed`. Reads the app itself
needs (plugin `ui-contributions`, adapter metadata, plugin job trigger)
stay open. Pages without instance-scoped mutation routes are hidden in
the UI only.
- UI: new `useHiddenSettings` hook and `HiddenSettingsPageGate` route
gate (hidden pages redirect to the settings root); the settings sidebar
and tab bar drop hidden entries; remembered settings paths remap to the
default page; `InstanceGeneralSettings` skips hidden sections; every
`ExperimentalToggleCard` now carries its flag key and renders nothing
when hidden.
- Removed the dead `InstanceSidebar` component (referenced only by its
own test).
- Docs: `docs/deploy/environment-variables.md` documents the variable
and the key registry.
## Verification
- `pnpm vitest run` over the new and extended suites: shared registry
and parser, representative floor tests per route class (changed-value
403, same-value echo 200, unset env 200, page-level Experimental
hiding), the health field, the route gate, nav filtering, and
section/card hiding with one hidden example per surface kind — 168 tests
pass.
- Full root `pnpm typecheck` passes.
- Manual: booted a server with the variable set. `/api/health` lists the
keys; an unknown key logs one warning and the server boots; hidden pages
redirect; hidden sections and cards do not render; hidden-field PATCH
returns 403 with `details.code = "settings_operator_managed"`; a
same-value echo returns 200. Unset the variable: the full settings
surface returns and responses are byte-identical to master.
## Risks
- Low risk for self-hosted instances: with the variable unset, the
hidden set is empty, the health field is omitted, and no floor
activates.
- Flooring plugin config writes assumes hosted deployments configure
plugins through the platform. If a future bundled plugin needs
tenant-entered config, the floor needs a narrow carve-out.
- Hidden-key floors tolerate same-value echoes, so API clients that
round-trip full GET responses keep working.
- Hiding a toggle does not change its value; operators pair hiding with
the desired default where the value matters.
## Model Used
Claude Fable 5 (Anthropic, `claude-fable-5`) with extended thinking and
agentic tool use, driven through the Claude Code CLI (file edits, test
execution, and live-server verification loops).

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The heartbeat system records agent runs and can add a run summary to
an issue.
> - The ACPX engine receives output text and internal thought text as
separate streams.
> - The default summary strategy joined both streams and could publish
internal text in an issue comment.
> - Paperclip already has final-output segmentation for run summaries.
> - This pull request makes final-output-only summaries mandatory and
removes the configuration bypass.
> - The benefit is that automatic issue comments contain the intended
final message instead of internal execution text.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #11761
**What happened?**
The ACPX engine used the full summary strategy when an adapter did not
set `summaryStrategy`. That strategy joined all text deltas, including
thought-stream text and intermediate narration. The heartbeat finalizer
could then store that summary as an issue comment.
**Expected behavior**
An automatic issue comment must use only the final output segment.
Configuration must not allow thought-stream text or intermediate
narration into that summary.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run an ACPX adapter without a configured `summaryStrategy`.
2. Emit an output delta, a thought delta, a tool call, and a final
output delta.
3. Read the generated run summary.
4. Observe that the old default included all text deltas.
**Paperclip version or commit**
`54b8bec44417511c623999613f9f1006f8af0517`
**Deployment mode**
Built from source with a local ACPX adapter.
## What Changed
- Limit ACPX run summaries to the final non-empty output segment.
- Ignore the legacy full-summary setting so configuration cannot bypass
containment.
- Update regression tests for the safe default and an attempted unsafe
override.
## Verification
- Observed the new guard fail before the implementation change because
the summary contained thought text.
- Ran `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/adapter-utils/src/acpx-engine/execute.test.ts -t "defaults run
summaries to the final output segment without thought text|does not
allow configuration to include thought text in run summaries"`. Result:
2 passed.
- Ran `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/adapter-utils/src/acpx-engine/execute.test.ts`. Result: 130
passed.
- Ran `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils typecheck`. Result:
passed.
## Risks
- Run summaries are shorter for adapters that relied on full text
aggregation.
- The old `summaryStrategy: "full"` setting no longer changes summary
behavior. This is an intentional containment change.
- The change does not alter run logs or tool events. It changes only the
summary selected for downstream use.
> This is a focused security and privacy bug fix. It does not add
roadmap scope.
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex on the GPT-5 family. The runtime did not expose the exact
model ID or context-window size. Reasoning, tool use, terminal
execution, and code editing were enabled.

## Thinking Path

work.

or recovery path.

attempt.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What happened?**
A run that ended without a valid issue disposition could lose its repair
path after a server restart. Manager recovery could also change the
source owner. In addition, a parked or expired retry could make the
issue look healthy when no active work existed. Concurrent
reconciliation could also schedule the same repair attempt twice.
**Expected behavior**
Paperclip must keep bounded source and manager repair attempts across
restarts. Recovery ownership must stay separate from source issue
ownership. The server and user interface must report only a live retry
as active work. Each repair attempt must be scheduled at most once per
company.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start an agent run on an issue.
2. End the run without a valid issue disposition.
3. Let the first repair attempt schedule a retry.
4. Restart the server, let the retry time pass without a live run, or
start two reconciliation loops together.
5. Observe that the repair path can stop, the issue can show a false
healthy state, or duplicate retries can be created.
**Paperclip version or commit**
The problem existed on `master` before candidate head
`d8e620fe86bade7df18decac332007f5821ae04f`.
**Deployment mode**
The problem affects self-hosted servers and local builds that use
automatic recovery.
## What Changed
- Persist bounded source-owner and manager repair lineages with stable
fingerprints and retry limits.
- Resume incomplete disposition repairs after a server restart.
- Keep recovery ownership separate from source issue ownership and
enforce source mutation authority.
- Project live retry evidence into issue and blocker summaries.
- Show recovery owner, return owner, attempt count, and retry state in
the board user interface.
- Treat expired or parked retries as attention states unless a queued or
running attempt exists.
- Atomically deduplicate disposition-repair wake requests with a
company-scoped partial unique index.
- Reuse the winning run when concurrent reconciliation loses the
uniqueness race, without duplicate scheduling activity.
- Honor disabled on-demand wake policy before recovery scheduling and
again before delayed retry promotion.
- Keep the new index migration safe for lagging seeded databases that
already contain the index.
- Add server and user interface tests for recovery, restart, ownership,
retry, concurrency, and blocker states.
- Update the implementation and execution semantics documents.
## Verification
- Focused server recovery and ownership suites: 282 tests passed on the
repaired base candidate.
- Focused user interface recovery suites: 128 tests passed on the
repaired base candidate.
- Atomic-deduplication schema and recovery suites: 111 tests passed on
the first Greptile repair.
- Recovery and scheduled-retry wake-policy suites: 126 tests passed at
`d8e620fe86bade7df18decac332007f5821ae04f`.
- The exact lagging-source migration-order test passed after the index
migration became idempotent: 1 test passed and 62 unrelated tests were
skipped.
- `@paperclipai/db` and `@paperclipai/server` typechecks passed at the
current head.
- Migration generation and migration safety checks passed for migration
`0226_tan_colossus.sql`.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` passed on the repaired base candidate.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed on the repaired base candidate.
- `pnpm build` passed on the repaired base candidate.
- `pnpm test:run` passed 4,540 tests on the repaired base candidate.
Four fixed-port cases met listeners that already existed on the host.
- The two unchanged fixed-port files passed in an isolated network
namespace: 129 tests passed and 27 tests were skipped.
- Independent Security and QA reviews approved
`63c0423aab54c66f2293a20b0fb3f3b013ee3ba8`; exact-head re-review is
required after automated checks settle on
`d8e620fe86bade7df18decac332007f5821ae04f`.
## Risks
- Recovery orchestration affects issue liveness and ownership. The new
paths use bounded attempts, stable fingerprints, row locks, authority
checks, and database uniqueness.
- A conservative attention state can show more warnings when a scheduled
retry has no queued or running attempt. It does not hide stopped work.
- Migration `0226_tan_colossus.sql` creates a partial unique index on a
known-large table. Migrations run transactionally, so `CONCURRENTLY` is
unavailable. The matching disposition-repair key namespace is introduced
by this release, so deployed databases have no matching rows before the
index is added.

discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. Feature PRs that overlap
with planned core work may need to be redirected — check the roadmap
first. See `CONTRIBUTING.md`.
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex from the GPT-5 model family used agentic reasoning, tool
use, and code execution. The runtime did not expose the exact model ID
or context window.
- Anthropic Claude Opus 5 used a 1M context window, tool use, and code
execution for part of the user interface repair, as recorded in the
commit history.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Local agent adapters (`claude_local`, `gemini_local`, `grok_local`,
…) are the integration surface that lets Paperclip run coding CLIs on
the host machine
> - The Kimi Code CLI (`kimi`, Moonshot AI) has a documented
non-interactive mode, `kimi -p --output-format stream-json` with session
resume via `kimi -r`, but Paperclip has no built-in adapter for it
> - So Kimi users (especially Kimi membership / OAuth subscribers)
cannot onboard their CLI to Paperclip agent teams
> - This pull request adds a complete built-in `kimi_local` adapter
(both execution engines, session management, instructions + skills
delivery, thinking-effort control, environment test, UI and CLI modules,
docs) following the established `gemini_local`/`grok_local` package
pattern
> - Kimi Code ships an ACP server (`kimi acp`), so the adapter runs on
Paperclip's shared acpx engine by default (streaming transcript with
live tool status, like `claude_local`/`gemini_local`) and falls back to
a headless CLI lane (`kimi -p --output-format stream-json`) when ACP
prerequisites are unavailable
> - The benefit is that Kimi Code becomes a first-class Paperclip agent
lane: selectable in the UI, resumable across heartbeats, with the same
operating context (instruction bundle, skills, effort) and streaming
transcript the other local adapters get
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
- Supersedes #9880 (same branch; expanded from the CLI-only lane into a
complete adapter with the default ACP engine lane, control-plane skill
install, and live transcript wiring)
- Refs #9879 (adapter request for Kimi Code CLI, filed with this PR)
- Refs #163 (original Kimi support request)
Duplicate/related prior PRs, per the dedup search (both appear stale: no
updates or maintainer review since May 2026, and both target an older
Kimi CLI interface; calling them out for reviewer context per
CONTRIBUTING.md):
- Refs #6276 (`feat: add kimi-local adapter`): targets an older
array-based content format (`{type: think}`/`{type: text}` blocks), not
the current documented stream-json schema
- Refs #5202 (`feat(adapter): add Kimi CLI local adapter with Wire
protocol support`): builds on a `--wire` JSON-RPC interface that current
Kimi Code CLI (0.27.0) no longer documents; the current documented
headless interface is `-p --output-format stream-json`
This PR is a fresh implementation against current master and the
currently documented/verified Kimi CLI behavior (see Verification).
Happy to fold in anything useful from the earlier attempts if a reviewer
prefers.
## What Changed
- **New adapter package** `packages/adapters/kimi-local`
(`@paperclipai/adapter-kimi-local`), modeled on
`gemini-local`/`grok-local`:
- `src/server/execute.ts`: spawns `kimi -p <prompt> --output-format
stream-json` (argv array, no shell), `-m <model>` only when configured,
`-r <sessionId>` when the stored session cwd matches the run cwd,
automatic fresh-session retry on unrecoverable-session errors,
headless-safe env (`CI=1`, `NO_COLOR=1`, `KIMI_CODE_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1`,
`TERM=dumb`; user-configured values win), full remote (ssh/sandbox)
execution lane with runtime install via `@moonshot-ai/kimi-code`
- **Instruction bundle delivery**: the prompt path directive now names
the sibling instruction files (`./HEARTBEAT.md`, `./SOUL.md`,
`./TOOLS.md`) alongside the prepended entry file, and local runs pass
`--add-dir <instructions-dir>` so Kimi can actually open them (matching
`claude_local`). Without this, only the entry file reached Kimi and
agents improvised the operating workflow that `HEARTBEAT.md` documents
- **Thinking effort**: a configured `effort` is forwarded as the
`KIMI_MODEL_THINKING_EFFORT` operational override (Kimi has no
per-invocation effort flag). It is only sent for models that advertise
`support_efforts` (currently `kimi-code/k3`) to avoid provider
rejections, and `medium` maps to `high` since Kimi has no medium tier
(`low`/`high`/`max` pass through)
- **Skills delivery**: desired Paperclip skills are delivered via Kimi's
`--skills-dir` flag from a dedicated per-run directory (a local
snapshot, or the synced snapshot on remote targets), so skills load
reliably and in isolation. Paperclip never overwrites the shared
`$KIMI_CODE_HOME/skills` home, so skills installed by the operator or
other agents are left intact. `--skills-dir` is only passed when at
least one skill is desired, so unconfigured agents keep Kimi's default
skill discovery
- **Live run status**: the adapter now forwards each streamed
stream-json line to `onEvent` (assistant `content` as an assistant
snippet, `tool_calls` as tool-name events), which drives the
issue-thread activity indicator (`currentToolName` /
`lastAssistantSnippet` / `lastEventAt`). Previously the adapter only
wrote the raw run log, so the issue thread showed a stale "no output for
N s" line with no tool or reasoning context while Kimi worked. Tool
results are omitted so the last meaningful "Using X" / snippet is not
overwritten by a generic label
- `src/server/parse.ts`: parses the verified Kimi stream-json event
shapes (`assistant` text, `assistant.tool_calls` with JSON-string
arguments, `tool` results, trailing `meta.session.resume_hint` for
session-id capture) plus failure classifiers (`kimi_auth_required`,
transient network, unrecoverable session). A signaled exit (null exit
code, not a timeout) is now reported as a failure rather than coalesced
to success, and the error message names the terminating signal
- `src/server/skills.ts`: lists/syncs Paperclip skills for the adapter's
skill-management surface
- `src/server/test.ts`: environment test covering CLI resolution + `kimi
--version`, cwd check, auth detection (OAuth credential dirs, keyed
`[providers.*]` in config.toml, or the `KIMI_MODEL_NAME` +
`KIMI_MODEL_API_KEY` env pair), and a live hello probe
- `src/ui/` (stdout-line parser for transcripts, config builder) and
`src/cli/` (stream event formatter) modules
- Root metadata: three managed model aliases
(`kimi-code/kimi-for-coding`, `kimi-code/kimi-for-coding-highspeed`,
`kimi-code/k3`), effort-capable-model metadata (`EFFORT_CAPABLE_MODELS`,
effort mapping helpers), `agentConfigurationDoc`
- Tests: 101 tests across parse, execute (args building, resume gating,
retry, auth error code, timeout, signaled-exit failure, effort
forwarding/gating/mapping, `--add-dir` instructions directive,
`--skills-dir` gating, `onEvent` runtime-event forwarding), ACP engine
(engine resolution, acpx config build, node-version gate), ACP
transcript delegation, environment test, UI parse/build-config
- **ACP engine lane (default)** (`src/server/acp.ts` + shared
`adapter-utils/acpx-engine`): Kimi Code ships an ACP server (`kimi
acp`), so `kimi_local` now runs on Paperclip's shared acpx engine by
default, matching `claude_local`/`codex_local`/`gemini_local`. The
issue-thread transcript streams live (assistant text deltas, tool calls
with a `pending`->`completed` status lifecycle) instead of the CLI
lane's bursty complete-message output. Registered `kimi_local -> "kimi"`
in `ACPX_ADAPTER_AGENT_IDS` and resolved the built-in agent command to
`kimi acp`; `execute.ts` dispatches to the ACP executor first with an
automatic CLI fallback when ACP prerequisites fail (`engine=acp`
requires ACP, `engine=cli` pins the headless lane); `index.ts` falls
back to the shared acpx session codec; the UI/CLI delegate `acpx.*`
events to the shared acpx transcript parser and event formatter. The
headless CLI lane (above) remains as the fallback
- **Registration** (one entry each, mirroring existing adapters): server
adapter registry + `BUILTIN_ADAPTER_TYPES`, `AGENT_ADAPTER_TYPES`
(shared), UI adapter registry + display registry (`Kimi Code`, Moon
icon) + capabilities defaults, CLI adapter registry, `Dockerfile`
(package copy + `npm install --global @moonshot-ai/kimi-code@latest`),
`vitest.config.ts` workspace, `scripts/release-package-manifest.json`
- **Behavioral sets** mirroring `gemini_local` (Kimi resumes sessions
the same way): `GIT_SENSITIVE_LOCAL_ADAPTER_TYPES`,
`SESSIONED_LOCAL_ADAPTERS` (heartbeat + recovery),
`REMOTE_MANAGED_ADAPTERS`, ssh/sandbox execution-target allow-lists,
`ADAPTER_DEFAULT_RULES_BY_TYPE` (`timeoutSec: 0`, `graceSec: 15`), and
`LEGACY_SESSIONED_ADAPTER_TYPES` + `ADAPTER_SESSION_MANAGEMENT` in
adapter-utils
- **UI touch-points**: New Agent default-model branch, AgentConfigForm
command map (`kimi_local: "kimi"`) + model defaults + a Kimi-specific
thinking-effort option list (`Low`/`High`/`Max`, reflecting Kimi's tiers
rather than borrowing Claude's), OnboardingWizard (command map, model
default, `kimi login` / `KIMI_MODEL_NAME + KIMI_MODEL_API_KEY` auth
hints, manual-debug command line), InviteLanding enabled adapters
- **Control-plane skill install** (`cli/src/commands/client/agent.ts`):
`paperclipai agent local-cli` seeded the Paperclip control-plane skills
into `~/.codex/skills` and `~/.claude/skills` so Codex/Claude agents
auto-discover the API reference every run. Kimi had no equivalent
target, so `kimi_local` agents began each session without the
control-plane skill and rediscovered routes (e.g. the company-scoped
`POST /api/companies/{companyId}/issues`) by trial and error. Added
`~/.kimi-code/skills` (honoring `KIMI_CODE_HOME`) as a third install
target for parity. Independent of the per-run `--skills-dir` delivery,
which only applies to explicitly configured skills.
- **Docs**: `docs/adapters/kimi-local.md` (prerequisites, auth options,
config fields including `effort`, session resume, instruction bundle,
skills delivery, control-plane skill install) + a row in
`docs/adapters/overview.md`
Out of scope (deliberately): model profiles, built-in agent
`allowedAdapterTypes` additions.
## Verification\n\nCurrent-master rebase verification (OpenAI Codex,
2026-08-03): 13 focused files / 231 tests pass; adapter-utils, server,
UI, CLI, and Kimi adapter typechecks pass; full repository build and UI
token gates pass. The branch is conflict-free against master at head
`1249df117c5e12e5771b9a570a6340866450619e`.\n\nAutomated (all from repo
root, pnpm 9.15.4, Node 22):
- `vitest run packages/adapters/kimi-local`: 89/89 pass (includes
coverage for the instruction `--add-dir` directive, effort
forwarding/gating/mapping, `--skills-dir` gating, the signaled-exit
failure path, and `onEvent` runtime-event forwarding with cross-chunk
line buffering)
- `vitest run server/src/__tests__/adapter-registry.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/adapter-routes.test.ts
server/src/services/heartbeat-stop-metadata.test.ts
ui/src/adapters/adapter-display-registry.test.ts`: 37/37 pass
- `vitest run cli/src/__tests__/skills.test.ts`: 13/13 pass (the
control-plane skill install target follows the existing Codex/Claude
install path, whose symlink logic is unchanged)
- `vitest run packages/shared`: 307/307 pass; `vitest run
packages/adapter-utils`: pass except one pre-existing, unrelated failure
(`mcp-isolation.integration.test.ts` requires Claude CLI ≥ 2.1.207; host
has 2.1.185, fails identically on unmodified master)
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-kimi-local typecheck|build`, plus
typecheck of `server`, `ui`, `cli`, `adapter-utils`: all clean
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`: passes (the PR diff itself contains
no lockfile changes, per repo policy; verified against a locally
regenerated lockfile)
- `node scripts/check-no-git-push.mjs` and `node
scripts/check-forbidden-tokens.mjs`: pass
- CI note: the `policy` job's release-bootstrap step is expected to stay
red until a maintainer bootstraps the first npm publish of
`@paperclipai/adapter-kimi-local`; see the CI Note for Maintainers
comment. All other contributor-actionable checks are green.
Manual end-to-end (real Kimi CLI 0.27.0, OAuth login, dev server on an
isolated instance):
1. Server `GET /api/adapters` lists `kimi_local` as builtin with correct
capability flags; models endpoint returns the three Kimi models
2. `POST .../adapters/kimi_local/test-environment`: all checks pass,
including a live `kimi -p` hello probe
3. Created a `kimi_local` agent and invoked two heartbeats: run 1
spawned `kimi -p ... --output-format stream-json`, Kimi used its `Read`
tool, produced the expected answer, and the session id was captured from
the `session.resume_hint` meta event; run 2 resumed the **same** Kimi
session (`sessionIdBefore == sessionIdAfter`) via `-r`
4. UI: adapter appears in the New Agent dropdown; selecting it shows the
Kimi command placeholder, the three models, and the Kimi config fields;
the run transcript renders Kimi tool calls via the adapter's stdout
parser
The instruction-bundle, thinking-effort, and `--skills-dir` changes
landed after the manual run above. They are covered by the unit tests
listed under Automated, and the Kimi CLI flags they rely on
(`--add-dir`, `--skills-dir`, `KIMI_MODEL_THINKING_EFFORT`) were
confirmed against the installed Kimi Code CLI 0.27.0 (`kimi --help`,
config-file thinking-effort docs).
Screenshots (assets branch on the fork, not part of the diff):
## Risks
- Low risk to existing behavior: the change is additive, one new
workspace package plus single-entry registrations alongside existing
adapters; no existing adapter code paths are modified.
- The adapter invokes the locally installed `kimi` CLI; like other local
adapters, run behavior depends on the host's Kimi version. The parser is
written against the documented/verified 0.27.0 stream-json schema and
degrades gracefully (malformed lines are skipped, failures surface as
run errors).
- `--skills-dir` overrides Kimi's auto-discovery of user and project
skills for the run. This is intentional (paperclip-managed agents get a
reproducible, isolated skill set), and it is only passed when at least
one Paperclip skill is desired, so unconfigured agents keep default
discovery.
- Thinking effort is only forwarded to models that advertise
`support_efforts` (currently `kimi-code/k3`); `EFFORT_CAPABLE_MODELS`
must be extended when more Kimi models gain support, otherwise a
configured effort is silently ignored for them.
- `Dockerfile` now installs `@moonshot-ai/kimi-code@latest` globally
alongside the other agent CLIs, so image size increases slightly.
- Maintainer action needed for the npm bootstrap gate: the `policy`
job's release-bootstrap step fails until the first npm publish of
`@paperclipai/adapter-kimi-local` (the gate from #5146 that every new
adapter package has passed through). Enrollment with `publishFromCi:
true` is required by the manifest validator (dropping the entry,
`false`, or `private` are all rejected), so this is intentionally left
to a maintainer. Remaining CI lanes are expected to run once it is done.
## Model Used\n\n- **Current-master rebase, conflict adaptation, and
registry-parity coverage:** OpenAI, **GPT-5 Codex** (Codex agent; exact
serving model ID and context-window size were not exposed to the
runtime), with repository, shell, Git, and GitHub tooling. It preserved
Hawik’s commit authorship, reconciled ACPX and environment-capability
changes, added current registry tests, and ran the verification
above.\n- **Adapter implementation and initial review:** Moonshot AI,
**Kimi K3 Coding** (latest), via **Kimi Code CLI v0.27.0**
(`kimi-code/k3` alias, 1M-token context window, thinking mode, agentic
tool use). The CLI agent explored the repo, wrote the adapter
implementation (delegated to a coder sub-agent of the same model), ran
tests, and drafted the first version of this PR body. A second
model-driven review pass (read-only, same model) audited the diff for
security/correctness before submission; its findings (shell-quoting
hardening, auth-detection false positive, session-compaction
registration, test gaps) were fixed and are included.
- **Harness-context fixes and review responses:** Anthropic, **Claude
Opus 4.8** (`claude-opus-4-8`) via Claude Code. Diagnosed from run logs
that Kimi received only the entry instructions file (not the
`HEARTBEAT.md`/`SOUL.md`/`TOOLS.md` bundle) and that `effort` was never
wired, then implemented the instruction `--add-dir` delivery,
`KIMI_MODEL_THINKING_EFFORT` forwarding, and `--skills-dir` skill
delivery, added the accompanying tests and docs, and addressed the
automated review comments (preserving external skills on remote sync,
treating a signaled exit as a failure). Also extended the `paperclipai
agent local-cli` installer to seed the control-plane skills into
`~/.kimi-code/skills` for Codex/Claude parity, wired `onEvent` runtime
events so the issue-thread activity indicator reflects Kimi's tool and
reasoning output live, and built the ACP engine lane (`kimi acp` via the
shared acpx engine, default) so the transcript streams with live tool
status like the other ACP adapters. The Kimi CLI flags, subcommand, and
env var relied on here were verified against the installed Kimi Code CLI
0.27.0.
- All CLI behaviors claimed here (`-p`, `--output-format stream-json`,
`-r` resume, event shapes, `--add-dir`, `--skills-dir`,
`KIMI_MODEL_THINKING_EFFORT`) were verified empirically against the
installed Kimi CLI, not assumed.

## Maintainer Addendum (2026-08-20)
The shared acpx-engine and issue-chat changes (run-summary segmentation,
placeholder tool-event coalescing,
`ISSUE_CHAT_TRANSCRIPT_MAX_VISIBLE_ENTRIES` 30 → 400, live-reasoning UI)
have been **extracted to #11761** so the cross-adapter behavior changes
review and revert independently — both commits there preserve @hawikk's
authorship. This PR is now the kimi-specific adapter only (60 files,
+3,793/−8, essentially pure addition); the only shared-engine touch left
is the `kimi acp` command resolution. `publishFromCi` is `true` — the
package name is bootstrapped on npm.
