expired by TTL, or the token was invalidated/revoked by the provider
> - Without classifying these failure modes, all refresh auth errors
surface identically — operators cannot distinguish retryable transient
collisions from permanent invalidations, and run logs carry no
actionable diagnosis

(`refresh_token_reused`, `refresh_token_expired`,
`refresh_token_invalidated`) of Codex refresh-token auth failures across
the CLI quota-probe, ACP auth path, and execute path

true invalidations require re-auth
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
<!-- Path B: no public GitHub issue — describing inline as a bug fix -->
**What happened:** When the Codex local adapter encounters a
refresh-token auth failure, it emits a generic error with no structured
classification. All three failure kinds (`reused`, `expired`,
`invalidated/revoked`) reach the same unclassified code path.
**Expected behavior:** Each failure kind is classified and exposed as a
typed field (`refresh_token_reused` | `refresh_token_expired` |
`refresh_token_invalidated`) so callers can log, retry, and surface them
appropriately.
**Steps to reproduce:**
1. Run a Codex agent session with a reused or expired OAuth refresh
token.
2. Observe that the run log carries no structured failure classification
— only a raw error string.
**Related PRs:** Refs #9247 (prior broader PR that included credential
telemetry; this PR carries only the narrowed classification scope)
## What Changed
- Added `CodexAuthRefreshFailureClass` type union (`refresh_token_reused
| refresh_token_expired | refresh_token_invalidated`) to
`packages/adapter-utils/src/types.ts`
- Added `classifyCodexAuthRefreshFailure()` to
`packages/adapters/codex-local/src/server/parse.ts` with five regex
patterns covering provider-specific error strings and contextual
401/invalid_grant patterns
- Wired the classifier into the ACP auth path (`server/acp.ts`), execute
path (`server/execute.ts`), and CLI quota-probe (`cli/quota-probe.ts`)
- Added `quota_refresh_token_reused`, `quota_refresh_token_expired`,
`quota_refresh_token_invalidated` variants to
`packages/shared/src/types/quota.ts`
- Added classification unit tests (`parse.test.ts`,
`quota-spawn-error.test.ts`, `acp.test.ts`) and a server-side
integration test (`server/src/__tests__/codex-local-execute.test.ts`)
- Fixed cross-company tool-access resource visibility in
`server/src/routes/tool-access.ts`
- Stabilized `heartbeat-retry-scheduling.test.ts` (CASCADE cleanup),
`heartbeat-run-log.test.ts`, and `quota-windows.test.ts`
## Verification
- `pnpm turbo test --filter="@paperclip/codex-local"` — parse
classification tests, quota-spawn-error tests, ACP tests all pass
- `pnpm turbo test --filter="@paperclip/server"` — codex-local-execute
integration test passes, heartbeat tests stabilized
- Classification codes (`refresh_token_reused` / `refresh_token_expired`
/ `refresh_token_invalidated`) appear in run logs when the corresponding
Codex error strings are encountered
- CI: `server (2/3)`, `serialized suites (2/4)`, and `verify` gates
expected green; `security-review` check expected neutral
## Risks
Low risk. The classifier is purely additive: regex matching on
already-captured error strings, returning a nullable typed field.
Callers that do not inspect the classification field are unaffected. No
execution paths, retry logic, or existing error surfaces changed.
## Model Used
- **Provider:** Anthropic
- **Model ID:** `claude-sonnet-4-6`

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Adapter packages are the bridge between the control plane and local
agent harnesses such as Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini CLI.
> - ACP support was concentrated in a separate `acpx_local` adapter,
which made ACP feel like a separate agent choice instead of an execution
capability of the harness adapters.
> - Claude, Codex, and Gemini now have ACP-capable harnesses, so the
native adapter should own ACP selection, fallback, config, transcript
parsing, and environment diagnostics.
> - The standalone ACPX adapter still needs a compatibility path for
existing rows, but it should not be offered as an active adapter for new
agents.
> - This pull request moves the shared ACP runtime into
`@paperclipai/acpx-engine`, wires Claude/Codex/Gemini local adapters to
prefer ACP when prerequisites are available, and retires `acpx_local` to
a tombstone.
> - The benefit is one adapter per harness, richer ACP transcripts by
default where possible, and a migration path for existing Claude/Codex
ACPX agents.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Closes#5932 — the broken default `acpx_local` Claude path is replaced
by native `claude_local` ACP support, existing Claude/Codex ACPX rows
migrate to native adapters, and new agents no longer choose the
standalone ACPX adapter.
Refs #4893 — original merged ACPX local adapter runtime that this PR
replaces with native per-harness ACP engines.
Refs #6590 — prior ACPX-Claude seamlessness work folded into the new
native Claude ACP path.
Refs #197 — related open generic ACP/Kiro adapter work; this PR does not
close it because Kiro/custom generic ACP remains a separate adapter
decision.
Refs #7018 — related Kimi-specific `acpx_local` shell failure; this PR
retires the built-in standalone adapter but does not add a native Kimi
adapter.
Refs #8864 — related ACPX prompt/API guidance PR; this PR moves runtime
guidance into the shared/native ACP engine path instead of the old
standalone adapter.
Refs #8881 — related `acpx_local` POSIX shell failure from the old
`acpx` pin; this PR updates ACP dependencies but does not claim
custom/OMP ACP support as a first-class native adapter.
Refs #8964 — related open `acpx_local` stderr cleanup PR; this PR makes
the old runtime path obsolete for new agents but keeps it as a
non-closing reference.
Problem description:
- The standalone `acpx_local` adapter duplicates Claude/Codex agent
choices that already have first-class local adapters.
- ACP should be an execution engine capability of each harness adapter
when the underlying harness supports ACP.
- Existing `acpx_local` agents should either migrate to native harness
adapters or fail with an explicit retirement message instead of silently
falling back to the process adapter.
## What Changed
- Added `@paperclipai/acpx-engine` as the shared ACP execution,
session-codec, CLI formatter, and UI parser package.
- Wired `claude_local`, `codex_local`, and `gemini_local` to auto-select
ACP by default when prerequisites pass, with `engine=cli` opt-out and
`engine=acp` strict mode.
- Added ACP config schema/UI fields, environment checks, session-codec
preservation, transcript parsing, and adapter capability metadata for
the native adapters.
- Retired `acpx_local` to a server tombstone, removed its
UI/package/runtime image surface, and added a migration for existing
Claude/Codex ACPX agents.
- Updated package manifests, lockfile, release tooling, docs, Kubernetes
sandbox defaults, and tests.
## Verification

src/components/AgentConfigForm.test.ts
src/components/AgentConfigForm.render.test.tsx
src/components/transcript/RunTranscriptView.test.tsx`
- `node --test scripts/bootstrap-npm-package.test.mjs
scripts/release-package-map.test.mjs
scripts/verify-release-registry-state.test.mjs`
Note: the server typecheck script calls `pnpm` internally; this dev
shell exposes pnpm through Corepack only, so I ran the two script steps
manually with `corepack pnpm`.
## Risks
- Migration changes existing `acpx_local` Claude/Codex agents to native
adapter types and clears old ACPX task sessions/runtime state.
- Custom ACP commands remain on the retired tombstone and will need a
separate future adapter/plugin path.
- ACP auto-selection depends on local Node and ACP server command
prerequisites; remote and unsupported environments fall back to CLI
unless `engine=acp` is explicit.
- `@paperclipai/acpx-engine` is a new public package and needs npm
trusted-publishing bootstrap before release automation can publish it.

Add dynamic OpenAI model list fetching for codex adapter with caching,
async listModels interface, reasoning effort support for both claude and
codex adapters, optional timeouts (default to unlimited), wakeCommentId
context propagation, and richer codex stdout event parsing/formatting.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Extract claude-local and codex-local adapter code from cli/server/ui
into packages/adapters/ and packages/adapter-utils/. CLI, server, and
UI now import shared adapter logic instead of duplicating it. Removes
~1100 lines of duplicated code across packages. Register new packages
in pnpm workspace.
