## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Reliable execution depends on heartbeat routing, issue lifecycle
semantics, telemetry, and a fast enough local verification loop to keep
regressions visible
> - The remaining commits on this branch were mostly server/runtime
correctness fixes plus test and documentation follow-ups in that area
> - Those changes are logically separate from the UI-focused
issue-detail and workspace/navigation branches even when they touch
overlapping issue APIs
> - This pull request groups the execution reliability, heartbeat,
telemetry, and tooling changes into one standalone branch
> - The benefit is a focused review of the control-plane correctness
work, including the follow-up fix that restored the implicit
comment-reopen helpers after branch splitting
## What Changed
- Hardened issue/heartbeat execution behavior, including self-review
stage skipping, deferred mention wakes during active execution, stranded
execution recovery, active-run scoping, assignee resolution, and
blocked-to-todo wake resumption
- Reduced noisy polling/logging overhead by trimming issue run payloads,
compacting persisted run logs, silencing high-volume request logs, and
capping heartbeat-run queries in dashboard/inbox surfaces
- Expanded telemetry and status semantics with adapter/model fields on
task completion plus clearer status guidance in docs/onboarding material
- Updated test infrastructure and verification defaults with faster
route-test module isolation, cheaper default `pnpm test`, e2e isolation
from local state, and repo verification follow-ups
- Included docs/release housekeeping from the branch and added a small
follow-up commit restoring the implicit comment-reopen helpers that were
dropped during branch reconstruction
## Verification
- `pnpm vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issue-comment-reopen-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-telemetry-routes.test.ts`
- `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/http-log-policy.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-run-log.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/health.test.ts`
- `server/src/__tests__/activity-service.test.ts`,
`server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-comment-wake-batching.test.ts`, and
`server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts` were attempted
on this host but the embedded Postgres harness reported
init-script/data-dir problems and skipped or failed to start, so they
are noted as environment-limited
## Risks
- Medium: this branch changes core issue/heartbeat routing and
reopen/wakeup behavior, so regressions would affect agent execution flow
rather than isolated UI polish
- Because it also updates verification infrastructure, reviewers should
pay attention to whether the new tests are asserting the right failure
modes and not just reshaping harness behavior
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex coding agent (GPT-5-class runtime in Codex CLI; exact
deployed model ID is not exposed in this environment), reasoning
enabled, tool use and local code execution enabled

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - That operator experience depends not just on issue chat, but also on
how workspaces, inbox groups, and navigation state behave over
long-running sessions
> - The current branch included a separate cluster of workspace-runtime
controls, inbox grouping, sidebar ordering, and worktree lifecycle fixes
> - Those changes cross server, shared contracts, database state, and UI
navigation, but they still form one coherent operator workflow area
> - This pull request isolates the workspace/runtime and navigation
ergonomics work into one standalone branch
> - The benefit is better workspace recovery and navigation persistence
without forcing reviewers through the unrelated issue-detail/chat work
## What Changed
- Improved execution workspace and project workspace controls, request
wiring, layout, and JSON editor ergonomics
- Hardened linked worktree reuse/startup behavior and documented the
`worktree repair` flow for recovering linked worktrees safely
- Added inbox workspace grouping, mobile collapse, archive undo,
keyboard navigation, shared group-header styling, and persisted
collapsed-group behavior
- Added persistent sidebar order preferences with the supporting DB
migration, shared/server contracts, routes, services, hooks, and UI
integration
- Scoped issue-list preferences by context and added targeted UI/server
tests for workspace controls, inbox behavior, sidebar preferences, and
worktree validation
## Verification
- `pnpm vitest run
server/src/__tests__/sidebar-preferences-routes.test.ts
ui/src/pages/Inbox.test.tsx
ui/src/components/ProjectWorkspaceSummaryCard.test.tsx
ui/src/components/WorkspaceRuntimeControls.test.tsx
ui/src/api/workspace-runtime-control.test.ts`
- `server/src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts` was attempted, but
the embedded Postgres suite self-skipped/hung on this host after
reporting an init-script issue, so it is not counted as a local pass
here
## Risks
- Medium: this branch includes migration-backed preference storage plus
worktree/runtime behavior, so merge review should pay attention to state
persistence and worktree recovery semantics
- The sidebar preference migration is standalone, but it should still be
watched for conflicts if another migration lands first
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex coding agent (GPT-5-class runtime in Codex CLI; exact
deployed model ID is not exposed in this environment), reasoning
enabled, tool use and local code execution enabled

Replace single retentionDays with a three-tier BackupRetentionPolicy:
- Daily: keep all backups (presets: 3, 7, 14 days; default 7)
- Weekly: keep one per calendar week (presets: 1, 2, 4 weeks; default 4)
- Monthly: keep one per calendar month (presets: 1, 3, 6 months; default 1)
Pruning sorts backups newest-first and applies each tier's cutoff,
keeping only the newest entry per ISO week/month bucket. The Instance
Settings General page now shows three preset selectors (no icon, matches
existing page design). Remove Database icon import.
Compress database backups with gzip (.sql.gz), reducing file size ~83%.
Add backup retention configuration to Instance Settings UI with preset
options (7 days, 2 weeks, 1 month). The backup scheduler now reads
retention from the database on each tick so changes take effect without
restart. Default retention changed from 30 to 7 days.
Adds two new webhook trigger signing modes for external provider
compatibility:
- github_hmac: accepts X-Hub-Signature-256 header with
HMAC-SHA256(secret, rawBody), no timestamp prefix. Compatible with
GitHub, Sentry, and services following the same standard.
- none: no authentication; the 24-char hex publicId in the URL acts
as the shared secret. For services that cannot add auth headers.
The replay window UI field is hidden when these modes are selected
since neither uses timestamp-based replay protection.

- Plugin loader: install/reload/remove/reinstall external adapters
from npm packages or local directories
- Plugin store persisted at ~/.paperclip/adapter-plugins.json
- Self-healing UI parser resolution with version caching
- UI: Adapter Manager page, dynamic loader, display registry
with humanized names for unknown adapter types
- Dev watch: exclude adapter-plugins dir from tsx watcher
to prevent mid-request server restarts during reinstall
- All consumer fallbacks use getAdapterLabel() for consistent display
- AdapterTypeDropdown uses controlled open state for proper close behavior
- Remove hermes-local from built-in UI (externalized to plugin)
- Add docs for external adapters and UI parser contract
Expose telemetry.track through the plugin SDK and server host bridge, forward plugin-prefixed events into the shared telemetry client, and demonstrate the capability in the kitchen sink example.\n\nCo-Authored-By: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
Restructure the TelemetryClient to send the correct backend envelope
format ({app, schemaVersion, installId, events: [{name, occurredAt, dimensions}]})
instead of the old per-event format. Update all event dimension names
to match the backend registry (agent_role, adapter_type, error_code, etc.).

The TelemetryClient only flushed at 50 events, so the server silently
lost all queued telemetry on restart. Add startPeriodicFlush/stop methods
to TelemetryClient, wire up 60s periodic flush in server initTelemetry,
and flush on SIGTERM/SIGINT before exit.

When skills are imported via skills.sh URLs or key-style imports
(org/repo/skill), the stored sourceType is now "skills_sh" with the
original skills.sh URL as sourceLocator, instead of "github" with the
resolved GitHub URL.
- Add "skills_sh" to CompanySkillSourceType and CompanySkillSourceBadge
- Track originalSkillsShUrl in parseSkillImportSourceInput
- Override sourceType/sourceLocator in importFromSource for skills.sh
- Handle skills_sh in key derivation, source info, update checks,
file reads, portability export, and UI badge rendering

- add byAgentModel endpoint and expandable per-agent model sub-rows in the spend tab
- validate date range inputs with isNaN + badRequest to return HTTP 400 on bad input
- move CostByProject from a local api/costs.ts definition into packages/shared types
- gate providerData query on mainTab === providers, consistent with weekData/windowData/quotaData
- fix byProject range filter from finishedAt to startedAt, consistent with byProvider runs query
- fix WHAM used_percent threshold from <= 1 to < 1 to avoid misclassifying 1% usage as 100%
- replace inline opacity style with tailwind bg-primary/85 class in ProviderQuotaCard
- reset expandedAgents set when company or date range changes
- sort agent model sub-rows by cost descending in ui memo
reads local claude and codex auth files server-side, calls provider
quota apis (anthropic oauth usage, chatgpt wham/usage), and surfaces
live usedPercent per window in ProviderQuotaCard with threshold fill colors
adds a new /usage page that lets board operators see how much each ai
provider is consuming across any date window, with per-model breakdowns,
rolling 5h/24h/7d burn windows, weekly budget bars, and a deficit notch
when projected spend is on track to exceed the monthly budget.
- new GET /companies/:id/costs/by-provider endpoint aggregates cost events
by provider + model with pro-rated billing type splits from heartbeat runs
- new GET /companies/:id/costs/window-spend endpoint returns rolling window
spend (5h, 24h, 7d) per provider with no schema changes
- QuotaBar: reusable boxed-border progress bar with green/yellow/red
threshold fill colors and optional deficit notch
- ProviderQuotaCard: per-provider card showing budget allocation bars,
rolling windows, subscription usage, and model breakdown with token/cost
share overlays
- Usage page: date preset toggles (mtd, 7d, 30d, ytd, all, custom),
provider tabs, 30s polling plus ws invalidation on cost_event
- custom date range blocks queries until both dates are selected and
treats boundaries as local-time (not utc midnight) so full days are
included regardless of timezone
- query key to timestamp is floored to the nearest minute to prevent
cache churn on every 30s refetch tick
When importing a company, users can now choose the adapter type for each
imported agent. Defaults to the current company CEO's adapter type (or
claude_local if none). Includes an expandable "configure adapter" section
per agent that renders the adapter-specific config fields.
- Added adapterOverrides to import request schema and types
- Built AdapterPickerList UI component in CompanyImport.tsx
- Backend applies adapter overrides when creating/updating agents
