## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents update tasks through the issue API.
> - The update response did not state which values changed.
> - Blocker updates also did not echo the scalar blocker IDs.
> - Agents therefore used an extra GET request to confirm a successful
write.
> - This pull request adds an authoritative change receipt and an
optional small response.
> - The benefit is fewer API calls with a clear and compatible write
contract.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public GitHub issue exists for this change.
### Subsystem affected
Cross-cutting: `server/`, `packages/shared`, and the UI issue cache.
### Problem or motivation
A successful issue PATCH returned the updated issue, but it did not
identify the effective changes. Blocker writes returned relation
summaries without the scalar IDs. Agents could not distinguish a
confirmed clear operation from missing data. The response must confirm
committed field and blocker changes while existing UI clients continue
to receive the full issue by default.
### Proposed solution
Add a `changes` receipt. Add a conditional `blockedByIssueIds` echo.
Support `Prefer: return=minimal`. Keep the full response as the default.
### Alternatives considered
Make the small response the default for agent tokens. This would create
different response contracts by actor type, so this pull request does
not use that design.
### Roadmap alignment
This is a focused control-plane reliability improvement. It does not
duplicate an open roadmap milestone.
## What Changed
- Compute committed issue row and relation changes in the issue service.
- Omit no-op fields and truncate changed long text values to 200
characters.
- Echo blocker ID arrays for blocker set and clear requests.
- Add the opt-in `Prefer: return=minimal` response and
`Preference-Applied` header.
- Keep receipt metadata out of React Query issue caches.
- Add route and embedded Postgres tests for the new contract.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issue-activity-events-routes.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/issues-service.test.ts -t
"returns authoritative update receipts for row fields and blocker
relations"`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
- `pnpm check:token-gates`
- `git diff --check`
## Risks
- Low compatibility risk. The default response only adds receipt fields.
- Minimal mode is opt-in. Existing clients do not receive a smaller
body.
- The receipt excludes `updatedAt` because the response already returns
it as the freshness anchor.
- Prose API and agent workflow guidance will follow after the server
contract is available.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Teams often keep their work in external ticket systems
> - Paperclip must keep execution and governance control when those
systems supply work
> - Connector authors need one provider-neutral contract for links,
routing, sync, and recovery
> - This pull request adds that contract as a draft specification
> - The benefit is a shared design for external task connectors without
provider logic in Paperclip core
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
- Refs: #3587
- Related prior connector work: #6271
- Supersedes the non-reopenable #7904.
- Duplicate #10569 was opened during concurrent recovery; this PR
contains the later review fixes
and is the 5/5, green canonical replacement. Recommend closing #10569
without merging it.
## What Changed
- Added a normative External Task Protocol for provider-neutral task
data, link state, routing, synchronization, conflicts, and health.
- Defined a Symphony-compatible execution profile that uses Paperclip
checkout, heartbeat, workspace, budget, approval, and blocker controls.
- Added provider profiles for Linear, Jira, Asana, Notion, Trello, and
GitHub Issues.
- Fixed the link-state transitions, reopen invariant, and section
cross-reference found in review.
- Updated the connector boundary to name the current capability-gated
plugin host clients.
- Aligned backlog wake semantics and issue-scoped run-stop conformance
with the current host API.
- Made terminal-to-active follow-up handoff retry-safe using a
single-record `TaskLink` retarget and
auditable handoff history, without assuming unavailable multi-record
plugin transactions.
- Preserved and refreshed Dotta's original specification work.
## Verification
- Ran `git diff --check`.
- Checked every numbered section reference against the document
headings.
- Compared the protocol integration points with the current plugin SDK
and host issue contracts.
- Ran the current PR template, linked-issue, duplicate-search, and
test-coverage quality gates against this description and title.
## Risks
- Low runtime risk. This pull request changes documentation only.
- The specification can constrain future connector designs. It remains a
draft and keeps provider-specific behavior in plugins.
- The replacement keeps the legacy `PAP-10377-task-protocol` head ref
because renaming it closed
#7904 and GitHub would not reopen that PR after the ref was restored.

## Model Used
- The original draft used Claude Code. This review repair used OpenAI
Codex with GPT-5. The exact API snapshot and context window are not
exposed. The run used reasoning, repository inspection, shell tools, and

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Execution policies let issues move through enforced review and
approval stages before work is considered done.
> - Active reviewers and approvers must include decision rationale when
approving or requesting changes.
> - The server already requires the decision comment to arrive in the
same `PATCH /api/issues/:id` request as the status change.
> - When callers post a normal comment first and then send a status-only
`PATCH`, the existing 422 only says a comment is required.
> - This pull request keeps the atomic decision behavior but makes the
API error and docs explicit about the same-request requirement.
> - The benefit is that agents and API clients can recover immediately
by sending `{ status, comment }` together instead of dead-ending on an
ambiguous validation error.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Fixes#9049.
Duplicate/related search completed before implementation: searched open
PRs for `9049`, `Approving a review or approval stage requires a
comment`, `Requesting changes requires a comment`, and `same PATCH`. I
did not find a direct open PR for the same error-message/docs fix.
Related PRs found but not duplicates: #8302 documents cross-agent review
gates in the skill API reference, and #5487 covers human approval UI.
## What Changed
- Expanded execution-policy 422 messages for approve and request-changes
decisions to say the comment must be included in the same `PATCH`
request and prior comments are not considered.
- Tightened unit coverage so the comment-required branches assert the
new actionable guidance.
- Documented the same-request `{ status, comment }` decision shape in
the execution policy guide, issue API reference, and agent communication
guide.
## Verification
- `CI=true corepack pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/issue-execution-policy.test.ts --reporter verbose`
- `CI=true corepack pnpm --filter @paperclipai/plugin-sdk exec node
../../../scripts/ensure-plugin-build-deps.mjs`
- `CI=true corepack pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsc --noEmit`
- `git diff --check`
## Risks
Low risk. This does not change execution-policy state transitions or
relax the atomic decision guard; it only makes the existing requirement
explicit in errors and docs.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A company accumulates real state — issues, labels, blockers,
documents, work products, monitors, attachments, agents, routines — and
people need to move that state between instances: self-hosted to cloud,
cloud back to self-hosted, or plain backups
> - The experimental, flag-gated Cloud Sync transport (#6548) tried to
solve this host-to-host: the source pushed into a receiver over HTTPS
with a cross-instance consent/token handshake, which required the
destination to be publicly reachable and broke for common self-hosted
topologies (plain-HTTP LAN/VPN origins); the receiver half never landed
upstream at all
> - Meanwhile the portability bundle and the existing export/import
pages already move companies offline with none of those networking
constraints — but silently dropped labels, blockers, issue documents,
work products, monitors, and every attachment
> - This pull request removes the host-to-host transport and makes
Import/Export the single data-movement path: the pages become
first-class company-settings destinations, exports declare exactly what
they do not carry, and bundle schemaVersion 6 now carries all of the
above, with attachments as content-addressed sha256 blobs verified
before a single row is written
> - The benefit is a migration and backup flow that works between any
two instances with no reachability requirements, no cross-instance auth,
and no silent data loss
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
- Refs #6548 — the original Cloud Sync sender this PR supersedes and
removes.
- Related, not duplicates: #1697 (goals in the portability manifest —
orthogonal field addition), #954 (an earlier import/export +
skill-visibility proposal predating the current portability bundle).
- No open issue describes this directly, so in brief (feature-request
shape): **Problem** — moving a company between instances silently lost
labels (imports with label references actually hard-failed), blocker
relations, issue documents, work products, monitor state, and all
attachments, and the alternative Cloud Sync transport required the
destination to be publicly reachable over HTTPS plus a consent
handshake, which failed for typical self-hosted setups. **Desired
behavior** — one Import/Export flow in company settings that produces a
portable bundle carrying all of that data, tells the operator up front
what it cannot carry, imports with automations paused, and offers real
one-click activation afterwards.
## What Changed
- New export fidelity report (`GET
/api/companies/:companyId/export/fidelity`) + an "Export fidelity" panel
on the Export page listing anything a bundle will not include (now only:
approvals, cost history, activity history)
- Imports accept `pauseAutomations`; imported agents and routines land
paused, the import result reports created routines, and the Import page
ends in an activation panel that actually resumes selected
agents/activates routines
- Export and Import pages promoted into the company-settings nav; the
Cloud Upstream wizard, ux-lab page, and API client removed; the old
settings route redirects to Export
- Host-to-host transport removed: upstream-sync/receiver-client routes
and services, CLI `cloud connect`/`cloud push` + keypair store, the
shared upstream transfer contract, and the `enableCloudSync` flag;
migration `0196` drops the two experimental `cloud_upstream_*` sender
tables
- Bundle schemaVersion 6: labels (definitions + per-task names, remapped
by name on import), blocker relations (`blockedBy` slugs,
cycle-tolerant), issue documents (`tasks/<slug>/documents/<key>.md`),
work products (system refs nulled), monitors (notes/scheduledBy
restored, imported un-armed)
- Attachments travel as content-addressed `blobs/<sha256>` entries
(deduped; comment-scoped attachments re-link via comment index); every
blob is hash-verified **before any write**, so a corrupted bundle cannot
leave a partially imported company; both zip codecs now round-trip
extensionless/binary entries byte-exactly; the Import page preflights
the inline body limit and offers continue-without-attachments
- v5 (and older) bundles still import, with an informational warning;
bundles newer than v6 are rejected cleanly
- Docs: board-operator import/export guide, CLI README, README/ROADMAP
updated
## Verification
- `pnpm -r` typechecks (shared, db incl. migration numbering/safety
checks, server, ui, cli) and `pnpm check:token-gates` — clean
- Vitest: full server + shared sweep 4,888 passed / 1 skipped, with the
only 3 failures being pre-existing on `master` (2×
heartbeat-workspace-branch-containment, 1× workspace-runtime auto-port;
reproduced identically with this change stashed); ui + cli suites green;
the embedded-Postgres export-fidelity suite applies the full migration
chain including the new `0196` against a fresh database
- Live end-to-end on a scratch instance: seeded a company with labels, a
blocker pair, an issue document, a work product, a monitor, an agent, a
routine, and two binary attachments (one comment-scoped) → export →
import into a fresh company → labels remapped to new ids, blocker edge
and document restored, monitor un-armed with notes intact, attachments
byte-identical (sha256-compared through the API), agents/routines paused
→ activation panel resumed them; a v5-shaped bundle imported with only
the info warning; flipping one byte in a blob made the import 422 with
**zero** rows created
- Reviewer repro: create a company with a labeled issue + attachment →
Settings → Export → download → Settings → Import on another
company/instance → watch the preview, apply with "start paused", then
activate
## Risks
- Migration `0196` drops
`cloud_upstream_connections`/`cloud_upstream_runs` — experimental tables
behind a default-off flag; their connection/run history is intentionally
discarded
- Breaking removals are all of experimental, flag-gated surface:
`/api/upstream-sync/*` + `/api/cloud-upstreams/*` routes, `paperclipai
cloud connect|push`, and the `enableCloudSync` flag (stale keys in
stored instance settings parse harmlessly)
- Import remains non-atomic on mid-apply errors generally (pre-existing
behavior); the new blob verification specifically moved ahead of all
writes so tampered bundles cannot create partial state
- GitHub-sourced imports do not fetch `blobs/*` and skip attachments
with a warning
## Model Used
- Claude Fable 5 (`claude-fable-5`, Anthropic), via Claude Code CLI with
extended thinking, tool use, and subagent orchestration; implementation
and review split across Fable 5 subagents, with live end-to-end
verification against a running instance

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source control plane people use to manage
AI-agent companies and their ongoing work.
> - Status cards turn a standing question into recurring,
agent-generated summaries on the board.
> - The existing setup split intent across a watch prompt and separate
update instructions, which made creation and later behavior harder to
understand.
> - A status card should have one durable source of truth for both
deciding what to watch and telling the summarizer what each update must
contain.
> - This pull request makes the card prompt that source of truth,
simplifies creation to one step, and lets operators choose the running
agent immediately.
> - The benefit is a smaller mental model, fewer configuration modes,
and consistent update instructions throughout the card lifecycle.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Status cards currently require operators to express the same intent in
two places: the watch prompt and optional update instructions with
append/replace/none modes. This feature simplifies the experimental
status-card workflow so a single prompt defines both the watch query and
every generated update. The create flow must also support selecting the
responsible agent without a second setup step.
Related prior status-card work: #10101.
## What Changed
- Use the status card's single prompt to compile the watch query and
directly instruct every summary update.
- Add migration `0190_status_card_single_prompt` to remove
`status_cards.instructions_mode` and `status_cards.instructions`.
- Add `agentId` to `createStatusCardSchema`, validate company
membership, and default new cards to the built-in Summarizer.
- Replace the two-step create flow with one prompt-and-agent dialog and
extract a shared `SummarizerAgentSelect` for create/settings surfaces.
- Remove the extra-instructions settings section, reset incremental
history when the prompt changes, and rename the board page to "Status".
- Update the bundled `status-card-query` skill and board-operator
documentation, then regenerate the skills catalog manifest.
## Verification
- Server status-card suites: 29/29 passing.
- UI `StatusCards` suites: 22/22 passing.
- Skills catalog suite: 20/20 passing.
- `tsc -b` passes for server, UI, shared, and database packages.
- `pnpm check:migrations` passes.
- Light and dark mode screenshots cover the new create dialog and
settings tab.
## Risks
- Migration `0190` intentionally drops existing separate instruction
text. Existing card prompts remain and become the update instructions
under the new model; status cards are experimental and feature-flagged.
- Prompt edits now reset the incremental summary chain and trigger a
full rebuild, which is intentional because the prompt is also the update
contract.
- Agent selection is company-scoped; invalid agent ids return a
validation error rather than creating a misrouted card.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source control plane people use to manage
AI-agent companies.
> - Operators need a board-level way to monitor a changing slice of
company work without repeatedly rebuilding filters or reading raw task
threads.
> - Existing summaries are useful snapshots, but they do not provide a
dedicated query-backed card with refresh policy, change tracking, update
history, and per-update cost visibility.
> - The capability needs to be safe to evaluate before it becomes part
of the default product surface.
> - This pull request adds end-to-end experimental Status Cards, from
schema and query compilation through update orchestration and operator
UI.
> - The entire feature is gated behind the `enableStatusCards`
experimental toggle, including its route and sidebar entry.
> - The benefit is a governed, inspectable way to keep focused
operational rollups current while preserving explicit controls over
refresh frequency and spend.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
### Subsystem affected
Cross-cutting (`packages/db`, `packages/shared`, `server/`, `ui/`, and
bundled skills/docs).
### Problem or motivation
Operators cannot currently define a reusable natural-language view of
company work, compile it into an inspectable query, and keep its summary
current as matching issues change. Rebuilding filters and rereading task
threads makes board-level monitoring repetitive and hides the
relationship between source changes, refresh cost, and the resulting
summary.
### Proposed solution
Add experimental Status Cards that compile operator intent into a query,
summarize matched work, record each update, expose
manual/interval/reactive refresh policies and costs, and preserve the
last good result across stale, updating, paused, and error states. The
capability is off by default and fully gated behind `enableStatusCards`,
including its route and navigation entry.
### Alternatives considered
- Extend existing one-off summaries: rejected because status cards
require persistent query provenance, refresh policy, update history, and
card-specific cost controls.
- Add a dashboard-only filter widget: rejected because it would not
provide governed background refresh, an update ledger, or an inspectable
compile pipeline.
- Ship the surface by default: rejected in favor of an experimental
toggle while behavior and operator value are evaluated.
### Roadmap alignment
This advances Paperclip’s board-level execution visibility and
output-first product goals. `ROADMAP.md` was checked and no duplicate
status-card initiative was found.
### Additional context
No related open PR was found in the public GitHub search for status
cards. The PR-only design wireframes were removed from the repository
after review; the published prototype remains external to the production
source tree.
## What Changed
- Added company-scoped status-card schema, CRUD APIs, compile
provenance, update ledger, shared contracts, validators, and OpenAPI
coverage.
- Added the text-to-query compile pipeline, bundled `status-card-query`
agent skill, query versioning, and authorized write-back flow.
- Added the experimental board, create flow, lifecycle tiles,
detail/settings/debug drawers, archived view, routing, navigation, and
instance setting.
- Added a change-gated update engine with manual, interval, and reactive
refresh policies, trigger selection, active hours, and daily token caps.
- Added per-update token/cost recording, today and lifetime rollups, and
policy-derived cost previews.
- Added operator documentation and agent-authoring hardening for compile
and update behavior.
- Added PR-prep integration coverage for settings/startup wiring and
replaced raw UI values with design-system tokens.
- Removed the PR-only `design/pap-15023-status-cards` wireframe
artifacts so the repository contains only production feature assets.
## Verification
- `pnpm -r typecheck` — passes on the PR head; includes `ui` `tsc -b`
passing. The UI compile gate was also independently recorded as passing
at `6d7f3cf96b` on July 23, 2026.
- `pnpm build` — passes.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — passes with all three gates clean.
- `pnpm test:run` — 2,880 tests passed and 1 skipped; the sole failure
was an unrelated 10-second `afterAll` database-cleanup timeout in
`execution-workspaces-service.test.ts`.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/execution-workspaces-service.test.ts` — passes on
immediate focused rerun (25/25).
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/instance-settings-service.test.ts
src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts` — passes (31/31).
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/pages/StatusCards/StatusCardSettingsForm.test.tsx
src/pages/StatusCards/StatusCardTile.test.tsx
src/pages/StatusCards/format.test.ts src/lib/status-card-state.test.ts`
— passes (26/26).
- Recorded pre-PR QA: compile-pipeline e2e PASS; full lifecycle and cost
QA PASS; security re-review PASS after write-back hardening; UX
approved.
- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/db/src/status-card-migrations.test.ts`
— passes; reapplies migrations `0185`–`0189` against an already-migrated
embedded Postgres database.
- `pnpm --filter /db check:migrations` — passes migration numbering and
safety checks.
- `pnpm --filter /db typecheck` — passes.
- Merged current `origin/master` on July 24, 2026 with no conflicts;
migrations `0185`–`0189` remain unclaimed on master.
## Risks
- The feature introduces five database migrations and a new background
update path; all new DDL is repeat-safe after partial application,
migration numbering/safety checks pass, and update execution is
company-scoped and change-gated.
- Natural-language compilation can produce invalid or overly broad
queries; compile provenance, query validation, debug visibility, and
version history make failures inspectable and recoverable.
- Reactive or interval refresh could increase spend; active hours, max
refresh frequency, daily token caps, per-update cost records, and
budget-paused states bound and expose that risk.
- The branch name contains an internal execution identifier because it
is a fixed handoff branch; it was intentionally not renamed or rebased
per the release handoff instructions.
- Overall rollout risk is limited because the route, navigation,
services, and UI are disabled by default behind `enableStatusCards`.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source control plane people use to manage
AI-agent companies.
> - Agents already receive selected company secrets through `env.*`
bindings at run launch, but environment injection is ambient,
long-lived, and not suitable for every secret consumer.
> - The existing binding and secret-access-event models already provide
company-scoped authorization and per-resolution audit seams.
> - Agents need an explicit way to discover only the secrets granted to
them and fetch a value on demand without exposing the wider company
catalog.
> - That capability must remain run-bound, preserve low-trust token
carve-outs, and make every value read visible in both security and
operator audit trails.
> - This pull request adds an `access.*` delivery namespace, two
run-bound agent routes, dual audit logging, documentation, and an
operator grants editor.
> - The benefit is least-privilege, revocable, auditable secret access
while preserving existing env injection behavior.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No pre-existing public issue. Related work:
- Refs #9797 — existing in-sheet agent access UI that this PR extends to
distinguish env and API delivery.
- Refs #9918 — complementary searchable-agent picker improvement for the
same secrets sheet.
- Refs #9530 — related company-wide metadata catalog proposal; this PR
intentionally exposes only the authenticated run's granted aliases and
values.
**Problem / motivation:** Agents can currently consume secrets only
through process environment injection. This keeps values resident for
the run, does not support on-demand consumers, and cannot provide a
discrete operator-visible activity event for each agent-initiated read.
**Proposed solution:** Treat `company_secret_bindings` as the source of
truth for agent secret grants. Keep `env.KEY` as env delivery and add
`access.ALIAS` for API-only delivery; an env binding also implies read
access because the value is already present in the agent process. Add
run-bound list/fetch endpoints that derive scope from the authenticated
heartbeat run and never accept caller-selected overlays.
**Alternatives considered:** A company-wide agent-readable catalog was
rejected for this value path because it increases reconnaissance and
does not prove a per-secret grant. Reusing the ephemeral
environment-probe resolver was rejected because it lacks binding
enforcement. Approval-gated reads and user-scoped secrets remain
deferred beyond v1.
**Roadmap alignment:** This extends the completed **Secrets Manager with
per-agent access** roadmap capability from launch-time env injection to
explicit run-bound API delivery without duplicating a separate planned
initiative.
## What Changed
- Added `access.*` agent binding validation and a dedicated run-bound
resolver that combines `secrets:read` authorization with binding-context
enforcement.
- Added `GET /api/agents/me/secrets` for minimal granted metadata and
`POST /api/agents/me/secrets/:key/value` for on-demand value fetches
with `Cache-Control: no-store`.
- Preserved the existing denials for low-trust review agents,
task-bridge credentials, and skill-test tokens; standard long-lived
agent API keys cannot call the run-bound routes.
- Added dual audit behavior: value attempts write `secret_access_events`
and `activity_log` (`secret.value.read`), while metadata listing writes
the lighter `secret.access.listed` activity event.
- Kept env compatibility: `env.*` remains injected at launch and also
implies API read for the same bound agent; `access.*` never becomes an
environment variable.
- Added the agent-settings **Secret access** editor plus
delivery-mode/alias surfacing on the Secrets page, with focused UI tests
and tokenized layout styles.
- Updated OpenAPI, shared types, agent-facing skill documentation, and
API reference documentation.
### UI Screenshots
P3 produced and reviewed three screenshots using mock data; images are
intentionally not committed to the repository:
- `secret-access-editor.png` — agent settings grant editor.
- `secret-access-light.png` — Secrets-page delivery surfacing in light
mode.
- `secret-access-dark.png` — Secrets-page delivery surfacing in dark
mode.
The source attachments are retained with the implementation task and
linked in the internal handoff; the public page publisher was
unavailable in the PR-prep runtime.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/agent-secrets-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/secrets-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/secrets-routes.test.ts
ui/src/lib/secret-delivery.test.ts
ui/src/components/AgentSecretAccessEditor.test.tsx` — 5 files, 122 tests
passed.
- Security follow-up: `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/agent-secrets-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/secrets-service.test.ts` — 2 files, 73 tests passed
after active-run and version-consistency fixes.
- Final-head CI: all feature, typecheck, build, e2e, security, and
review gates pass; `General tests (server (1/3))` remains red after one
rerun because unrelated `heartbeat-retry-scheduling.test.ts` cleanup
deletes `heartbeat_runs` before referenced `activity_log` rows.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — feature-local arbitrary-value violations
fixed; command still reports five unchanged `#9627` literals outside
this PR.
- End-to-end QA passed all eight acceptance criteria: grant/list, fetch,
dual audit, env-implies-read, denial matrix, revocation, UI rendering,
and env-injection regression. Evidence:
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/9921#issuecomment-5027455492
- Security review returned PASS-with-required-changes; the
implementation uses the required dedicated binding-enforcing resolver,
run-bound JWT restriction, run-derived overlays, minimal metadata, and a
resolver redaction-registration hook. Evidence:
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/9921#issuecomment-5027455382
## Risks
- A compromised agent can exfiltrate any secret explicitly granted to
it; explicit company-scoped/run-scoped grants, revocation, and audit
reduce but cannot remove that inherent capability risk.
- The resolver invokes a redaction-registration hook before returning
values, but the current route has no persistent cross-request per-run
redaction registry. Paperclip-owned later comments/events therefore
cannot yet guarantee automatic scrubbing of a deliberately copied
fetched value; QA classified this as non-blocking residual hardening.
- Audit-event insertion currently fails open if the security-event
insert itself fails; the operator activity event provides partial
redundancy, but a future hardening change should define fail-closed
behavior for value delivery.
- This PR overlaps `ui/src/pages/Secrets.tsx` with #9918 and may require
a straightforward rebase after that PR moves.

## Thinking Path
> - Parallel local agent experiments should not reuse the primary
Paperclip instance.
> - Paperclip already creates isolated worktree instances with generated
names and environment files.
> - The local development guide lacked a complete bootstrap and recovery
path.
> - This pull request adds that path using the registered CLI forms and
generated selector.
> - The benefit is safer setup, recovery, and cleanup for local
experiments.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public issue was found. The local development guide did not connect
worktree creation, environment loading, startup, repair/reseed, and
cleanup into one safe sequence.
## What Changed
- Added an isolated worktree bootstrap example.
- Documented bash/zsh environment loading without presenting invalid
PowerShell syntax.
- Used registered repair/reseed commands and the generated
paperclip-local-lab selector.
- Added explicit cleanup guidance.
## Verification
- git diff --check upstream/master...HEAD
- Verified command registration and generated naming in
cli/src/commands/worktree.ts.
## Risks
Low. Documentation-only; reviewed command and selector mismatches are
corrected.
## Model Used
OpenAI GPT-5.3 Codex Spark for initial branch work; OpenAI GPT-5 Codex
for review and follow-up fixes, with repository and GitHub tool use.
Context-window sizes were not exposed in this session.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Governed MCP access spans contracts, runtime enforcement, adapters,
UI surfaces, and operator verification
> - The parity reference PR #9534 is too large for effective automated
or human review
> - The feature therefore needs a linear stack whose individual diffs
stay below the 100-file review limit
> - This pull request is split 1/8 and focuses on fixture and demo MCP
servers
> - The benefit is a standalone, testable review boundary while
preserving byte-for-byte parity at the top of the stack
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
- Related parity reference: #9534
- Problem: Developers need deterministic local MCP fixtures and visible
demo servers without pulling in the governed production runtime.
- Proposed solution: Adds the Google Sheets and KV demo MCP packages,
fixture catalog/servers, smoke harness, guide, and the root
smoke/typecheck registration hunks.
- Alternatives considered: keeping #9534 as one 403-file review, or
rewriting the feature to manufacture seams; both were rejected in favor
of path extraction plus compile-driven boundary moves.
- Roadmap alignment: this advances the existing governed MCP/tool-access
work already represented by #9534; it does not introduce a separate
roadmap initiative.
- Stack position: base branch is `master`.
- Merge policy: merge bottom-up, in order, only after the complete
eight-PR stack has been reviewed and the top-of-stack parity gate
remains empty.
- Requested review: QA for fixture and smoke coverage; Greptile on every
PR.
## What Changed
- Adds the Google Sheets and KV demo MCP packages, fixture
catalog/servers, smoke harness, guide, and the root smoke/typecheck
registration hunks.
- Keeps this PR below 100 changed files and independently typecheckable.
- Preserves the final tree from #9534 when combined with the other seven
stack levels.
## Verification
- `pnpm typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/google-sheets-mcp-server test` — 27 tests
passed
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/kv-demo-mcp-server test` — 12 tests passed
## Risks
- The new packages add dependencies that are intentionally not committed
to `pnpm-lock.yaml`, per repository policy.
- Stack risk: merging out of order can expose incomplete layers;
mitigate by following the documented bottom-up merge policy.
- Parity risk: later edits to an intermediate branch can drift from
#9534; mitigate by re-running the empty top-of-stack diff before merge.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Operators need first-party agent capabilities for repeatable company
work, not just manually created one-off agents.
> - Built-in agents need to behave like normal company-scoped agents
while preserving approval gates, permissions, budgets, and audit trails.
> - Reflection and coaching work also needs bundled instructions, skill
content, and a routine so the feature can be installed and reset
predictably.
> - The API, database, UI, portability, and tests all need to agree on
the built-in lifecycle from not provisioned through setup, approval,
ready, paused, and reset.
> - This pull request adds built-in agent provisioning and the
Reflection Coach bundle end-to-end.
> - The benefit is a safer first-party path for Paperclip-managed agents
without bypassing the same governance model used for operator-created
agents.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public GitHub issue was found for this exact built-in agent and
Reflection Coach bundle work.
Problem/motivation:
- Paperclip did not have a first-party built-in agent lifecycle for
product-owned agents.
- Bundled agent resources such as default instructions, skills, and
routines needed managed ownership and reset semantics.
- Approval-gated companies needed built-in setup to preserve requested
adapter, budget, manager, and permission state through board approval.
- The board UI needed clear built-in badges, setup affordances,
readiness state, and bundle status without exposing secrets.
Proposed solution:
- Add a company-scoped built-in agent registry,
provisioning/reset/reconcile/status APIs, and Reflection Coach bundled
resources.
- Track bundled managed resources in the database with idempotent
migration behavior.
- Reuse existing agent approval, authorization, budget, and activity-log
paths instead of creating a bypass.
- Add UI setup, badges, gates, bundle panels, and route coverage for
built-in agents.
Duplicate search:
- Searched GitHub PRs for `built-in agents Reflection Coach
repo:paperclipai/paperclip`; only this PR was returned.
- Searched GitHub issues for the same query; no public issues were
returned.
## What Changed
- Added built-in agent definitions, lifecycle state derivation,
provisioning, reset, reconcile, status, and routine-control routes.
- Added the `built_in_managed_resources` migration and schema exports
for bundled instructions, skill, and routine ownership.
- Added the Reflection Coach built-in bundle with default instructions,
skill catalog content, routine template, default permissions, and
managed-resource drift handling.
- Added approval-aware provisioning behavior that preserves requested
adapter config, budgets, manager assignment, and built-in permissions
through hire approval.
- Added authorization and mutation gates for built-in agent and skill
changes, including consented Reflection Coach change paths.
- Added UI surfaces for built-in agent setup, roster/detail badges,
readiness gates, bundle status, routine controls, and route filtering.
- Added company import/export and validator coverage for built-in
managed resources and low-trust/red-team presets.
- Addressed Greptile follow-ups for pending approval reconciliation,
consent-gate error propagation, config-read authorization fallback,
approval-path manager preservation, and non-model adapter provisioning.
## Verification
Local verification:
- `git diff --check public/master..HEAD` passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` passed with all gates clean.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
ui/src/components/ConfigureBuiltInAgentModal.test.tsx` passed: 1 file, 4
tests.
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/components/EntityRow.test.tsx

ui/src/components/BuiltInBundlePanel.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/InstanceExperimentalSettings.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/Routines.test.tsx` passed: 7 files, 64 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/built-in-agents.test.ts
src/__tests__/authorization-service.test.ts
src/__tests__/company-skills-routes.test.ts` passed: 3 files, 91 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db check:migrations` passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed after the rebase; `pnpm --filter ui
typecheck` passed after the final UI review fix.
Remote verification on latest head
`1c61f693a4ec881d739022b0e75a8ca8bf8c2cd8`:
- Merge state: `CLEAN`.
- Greptile: `5/5`, zero unresolved Greptile threads.
- PR check rollup: all checks successful, neutral, or skipped as
expected.
- Passing gates include Build, Typecheck + Release Registry, all server
shards, all workspace shards, all serialized server suites, e2e, Canary
Dry Run, policy, review, verify, Socket, Superagent, and Snyk.
## Risks
- This adds a new managed-resource table and migration; the migration
uses idempotent create/add/index guards and passed migration safety
checks.
- Built-in agent provisioning touches approval and authorization paths;
tests cover pending approval preservation, stale retry rejection,
consent gates, and config-read fallback behavior.
- Reflection Coach creates managed instructions, skill, and routine
resources; drift/reset behavior is covered by service tests and redacted
API responses.
- Non-model adapter setup now provisions a `needs_setup` built-in row
before command/endpoint fields are complete; this matches the server
lifecycle and is covered by the setup modal regression test.
## Model Used
OpenAI Codex coding agent based on GPT-5. Exact hosted model ID,
context-window size, and reasoning-mode labels are not exposed in this
runtime; tool use, shell execution, GitHub CLI/API access, and local
code editing were enabled.

## 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.

## 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.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agent runs execute through adapters (e.g. `acpx_local`), which can
run locally, over SSH, or inside sandbox execution targets, each with a
wall-clock execution timeout
> - Sandbox-backed runs defaulted to a 30-minute wall-clock backstop
(`DEFAULT_REMOTE_SANDBOX_ADAPTER_TIMEOUT_SEC = 1800`), which kills
healthy long agent runs that are still making progress — long before the
recovery watchdog's 4h critical threshold would even consider them stuck
> - On top of that, `acpx_local` resolved its timeout directly from
`adapterConfig.timeoutSec` instead of the shared execution-target
resolver, and its timeout failures surfaced as a bare `Timed out after
Ns` — giving operators no clue which timer fired or which knob raises it
> - This pull request raises the sandbox backstop to 4h (aligned with
the recovery watchdog), routes `acpx_local` through the shared timeout
resolver, logs the effective timeout and its source at run start, and
makes every timeout error message self-describing
> - The benefit is that long-running sandbox agent runs no longer die at
30 minutes, and when a wall-clock timeout does fire, the run log states
exactly which timer fired and how to configure it
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #4535 (related: wall-clock execution timeouts killing agent runs
that are still making progress — that issue covers a different hardcoded
600s timer, but the operator pain is the same).
No exact public issue exists for this one, so describing it in-PR:
**Bug:** A long sandbox-backed `acpx_local` agent run was killed with a
bare `Timed out after 1800s` even though the agent was actively working.
- **What happened:** The run hit the 30-minute
`DEFAULT_REMOTE_SANDBOX_ADAPTER_TIMEOUT_SEC` backstop. `acpx_local`
never consulted the shared execution-target timeout resolution (it read
`adapterConfig.timeoutSec` directly, default 0), so on sandbox targets
the sandbox-provider default applied with no adapter-level say. The
resulting error named neither the timer that fired nor the knob that
controls it.
- **Expected:** Healthy long runs should not be killed by a 30-minute
wall-clock backstop when the recovery watchdog only treats runs as
critically stuck after 4h of output silence; and any timeout error
should say which timeout fired and how to raise it.
- **Impact:** Long, legitimate agent runs in sandboxes fail mid-work;
operators waste time reverse-engineering which of several timers
produced "Timed out after Ns".
## What Changed
- `packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target.ts`
- `DEFAULT_REMOTE_SANDBOX_ADAPTER_TIMEOUT_SEC` raised from `1_800` to
`14_400` (4h), with a comment explaining it intentionally matches the
recovery watchdog's `ACTIVE_RUN_OUTPUT_CRITICAL_THRESHOLD_MS` (4h) so
the adapter backstop never fires before the watchdog path.
Output-inactivity monitors remain the primary hang detectors.
- New `resolveAdapterExecutionTargetTimeout(target,
configuredTimeoutSec)` returns `{ timeoutSec, source }` where `source`
is `configured` / `sandbox_default` / `unlimited`. The existing
`resolveAdapterExecutionTargetTimeoutSec` is preserved as a thin
wrapper, so current callers are unaffected.
- New `formatAdapterExecutionTimeoutErrorMessage(resolution)` and
`formatAdapterExecutionTimeoutStartLogLine(resolution)` produce
self-describing messages that name the timer that fired and the
`adapterConfig.timeoutSec` knob that controls it.
- `packages/adapters/acpx-local/src/server/execute.ts`
- `buildRuntime` now resolves the wall-clock timeout through the shared
resolver: sandbox targets default to the 4h backstop, local/SSH keep the
historical "0 = no adapter timeout", and a configured
`adapterConfig.timeoutSec` always wins.
- The executor logs the effective timeout and its source at run start
(`[paperclip] Adapter execution timeout: …`), so a later timeout is
diagnosable from the run log alone.
- All three bare timeout messages (timer cancel reason, turn result
`errorMessage`, catch-path `messageOverride`) now use the
self-describing format.
- `packages/adapters/acpx-local/src/index.ts` — the adapter
configuration doc for `timeoutSec` states the sandbox default and that
the output-inactivity monitor remains the primary hang detector.
- Tests: `packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target-sandbox.test.ts`
and `packages/adapters/acpx-local/src/server/execute.test.ts` (see
Verification).
## Verification
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils typecheck` — passes
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-acpx-local typecheck` — passes
- `npx vitest run
packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target-sandbox.test.ts
packages/adapters/acpx-local/src/server/execute.test.ts` — 2 files, 40
tests, all pass
- New/updated test coverage:
- sandbox default resolves to 4h (and the constant is asserted to be `4
* 60 * 60`)
- `resolveAdapterExecutionTargetTimeout` reports `configured` /
`sandbox_default` / `unlimited` sources with the correct precedence
(configured > sandbox default; local/SSH stay unlimited)
- exact wording of the self-describing error message and the
start-of-run log line
- `acpx_local` runtime picks up the sandbox default into `timeoutMs`,
keeps the unlimited local default, honors configured-over-default
precedence, emits the start-of-run log line, and surfaces the
self-describing `errorMessage`/cancel reason when the wall-clock timer
kills a turn
## Risks
- **Behavioral shift:** sandbox-backed adapter runs that previously hit
the 30-minute backstop now run up to 4h before the adapter kills them.
Genuinely hung runs are still caught much earlier by the adapters'
output-inactivity monitors and by the recovery watchdog; the wall-clock
timer is a last-resort kill switch. Operators who relied on the
30-minute default can restore it explicitly via
`adapterConfig.timeoutSec`.
- **Error-message consumers:** any tooling that pattern-matched the
exact `Timed out after Ns` string from `acpx_local` will see the new
self-describing message instead.
- No API or schema changes; `resolveAdapterExecutionTargetTimeoutSec`
keeps its exact signature and behavior (modulo the raised sandbox
default).

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents run in heartbeat runs orchestrated by the server; run
lifecycle, retry scheduling, and the dashboard's run-activity metrics
are the subsystems involved
> - A spike in "failed" tasks traced to three causes: server restarts
killing in-flight runs and mislabeling them as failures, deterministic
workspace-validation loops when a worktree's branch diverged, and
provider quota/usage-limit errors being classified as generic transient
failures (putting agents into error state and polluting metrics)
> - Killed-then-recovered runs and quota waits are not product failures,
so both the runtime behavior and the reporting needed to distinguish
them
> - This pull request drains runs gracefully on shutdown with idempotent
restart retries, self-heals workspace branch mismatches, adds a
quota-aware failure class with reset-time retry, separates recovered
restart kills from true failures on the dashboard, and documents restart
hygiene for operators
> - The benefit is fewer spurious failures, automatic recovery instead
of manual repair, and dashboard metrics that reflect real failure rates
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public GitHub issue exists; describing the bug inline per the
bug-report template:
**What happened?**
In-flight heartbeat runs are marked `failed` when the server restarts,
even though a retry later succeeds. Worktrees whose checked-out branch
diverges from the issue branch fail workspace validation on every
subsequent run with no recovery path. Provider quota/usage-limit
responses are treated as generic transient upstream errors, putting
agents into an error state and retrying before the quota window resets.
The dashboard counts all of these as true failures, inflating failure
metrics.
**Expected behavior**
Graceful shutdown should interrupt (not fail) running runs and chain
exactly one recovery retry. Workspace validation should repair
recoverable branch mismatches automatically. Quota errors should get
their own error class with the retry scheduled at the provider reset
time and the agent left idle. The dashboard should report recovered
restart kills separately from true failures.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a heartbeat run, then restart the server (SIGTERM) while it is
in flight — the run lands as `failed` with a process-loss error code
even when its retry succeeds
2. Check out an issue whose worktree branch has diverged (e.g. after a
force-moved branch) — every subsequent run fails
`workspace_validation_failed` deterministically
3. Drive an agent into a provider usage-limit window — the run fails as
a generic transient upstream error and the agent enters an error state
instead of idling until the reset time
**Paperclip version or commit**
master (base c07e650cd)
**Deployment mode**
Self-hosted dev plane (Linux, node server + embedded Postgres)
## What Changed
- Graceful shutdown (SIGTERM hook) now marks in-flight runs
`interrupted` instead of `failed` and enqueues an idempotent
process-loss retry (pre-insert existence check on `retryOfRunId`
prevents duplicates; bursts chain exactly one retry per interrupted run)
- Run-liveness classification routes `interrupted` to `needs_followup`
rather than `failed`
- Workspace validation self-heals branch mismatch / missing-branch
states instead of failing deterministically on every run
- New `provider_quota` error class: session/usage-limit responses
schedule the retry at the provider reset time and leave the agent idle
(not errored); fixes a case where a quota-terminated run with subtype
`success` was misclassified as failed; HTTP 529 remains transient
- Dashboard run-activity query separates recovered restart kills from
true failures via a recursive CTE over `retry_of_run_id` (ancestors of a
succeeded retry count as recovered), adds a per-day failed-by-error-code
breakdown, and binds the window start as a timestamptz string
- Activity charts UI: amber "Recovered" segment with legend and per-day
error-code tooltip; success-rate chart counts recovered runs as
successes
- New ops runbook: `docs/deploy/dev-plane-restart-hygiene.md`
## Verification
- Greptile follow-up fixes on `992705edd`: `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts

server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-workspace-finalize-branch.test.ts` (209
tests); `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`; `git diff
--check`
- Post-rebase CI fixes: `pnpm exec vitest run

server/src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts

server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-workspace-finalize-branch.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-workspace-session.test.ts` (227 tests);
`pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- `npm test` server suites covering the changes:
`heartbeat-process-recovery`, `heartbeat-stop-metadata`,
`heartbeat-retry-scheduling` (95 tests), quota parse +
execute/retry-scheduling suites (100 tests), workspace self-heal suites
(200 tests), dashboard run-activity tests (3 tests) — all green,
typecheck exit 0
- Dashboard CTE cross-checked against a real development database: two
restart-burst days moved from 17 to 8 and 19 to 6 true failures once
recovered kills were separated, matching manual retry-chain inspection
- Screenshot verification of the real ActivityCharts component
(recovered segment + tooltip) during QA
## Risks
- Behavioral shift: runs killed by a restart no longer surface as
`failed`; anyone consuming raw run statuses will see `interrupted` (new
status value) — dashboards/queries in this repo were updated accordingly
- Retry chaining on repeated restarts is bounded (one chained retry per
interruption) but a pathological restart loop still delays work rather
than failing it; the runbook covers operator hygiene for that case
- Dashboard query adds a recursive CTE; cost is bounded by the
day-window row count and was verified against production-sized data
- No schema migrations; low migration risk

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Skills are how operators give agents reusable, reviewable operating
instructions without baking every integration into core runtime code.
> - Finance setup is a sensitive workflow because account onboarding,
incorporation, cards, spend controls, and data sharing can all create
real-world effects.
> - Ramp publishes an agent-facing setup skill and playbooks, but
Paperclip needs a curated wrapper that makes those instructions
subordinate to Paperclip governance.
> - This pull request adds an optional Ramp catalog skill that fetches
Ramp's live entrypoint while preserving Paperclip approval gates.
> - The benefit is that companies can opt into Ramp setup assistance
while reviewers can see the source model, allowed hosts, and fail-closed
safety rules in one shipped catalog entry.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public GitHub issue exists for this optional catalog skill.
Feature request context:
- **Problem / motivation:** Paperclip companies need a safe, installable
way for agents to follow Ramp's public agent setup flow without giving
those fetched instructions authority over financial, legal, credential,
or spend decisions.
- **Proposed solution:** Ship a markdown-only optional
`paperclipai:optional:finance:ramp` skill that points agents at Ramp's
live get-started skill, documents the thin-wrapper source model,
allowlists the Ramp host, and requires Paperclip approval for financial,
incorporation, credential, connector, third-party tool, and
money-movement actions.
- **Alternatives considered:** Vendoring a snapshot would reduce runtime
source drift but would stale quickly as Ramp updates its own onboarding
flow. The wrapper instead fetches fresh instructions while explicitly
failing closed on unclear provenance and keeping fetched instructions
subordinate to Paperclip instructions.
- **Roadmap alignment:** This fits the completed Skills Manager roadmap
area by adding a focused optional catalog skill rather than expanding
core workflow code.
## What Changed
- Added a markdown-only optional Ramp skill under the finance catalog.
- Documented the source model for live Ramp instructions, the allowed
host, provenance handling, community/unclear playbook approval
requirements, and safety rules.
- Added mandatory Paperclip approval gates for Ramp account setup,
incorporation/legal filings, CLI installers, connector/auth flows,
third-party browser/MCP/CLI tooling, financial data sharing, Agent
Cards, spend controls, and money movement.
- Updated the Skills Store guide to document thin fetch-and-follow
wrappers for curated optional skills.
- Regenerated the shipped skills catalog manifest.
- Added catalog tests for the Ramp entry, approval-gate wording,
mixed-provenance handling, and avoiding remote-fetch execution hard-stop
patterns.
## Verification
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/skills-catalog build:manifest`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/skills-catalog validate`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/skills-catalog test --
src/shipped-catalog.test.ts` — 1 file, 8 tests passed.
- `git diff --check`
## Risks
- Ramp-hosted instructions can change after install. The wrapper
mitigates this by keeping fetched content subordinate to Paperclip
instructions, limiting the source host, failing closed on unclear
provenance, and requiring scoped approvals before governed actions.
- The skill is markdown-only and optional, so it does not add executable
package code or install by default.
- The generated catalog manifest changes hashes for the shipped catalog
entry; catalog validation passed after regeneration.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agent runs often need provider credentials, API tokens, and other
environment-bound secrets.
> - Company-level secrets work for shared credentials, but they do not
model values that should differ by human operator.
> - Without a user-scoped model, a run can dispatch without knowing
whether the responsible human has supplied the needed value.
> - Paperclip also needs run attribution to make those user-scoped
runtime checks deterministic and auditable.
> - This pull request adds user-specific secret definitions, per-user
values, environment bindings, responsible-user attribution, and runtime
resolution gates.
> - The benefit is that teams can define the secret once, let each user
provide their own value, and block runs before dispatch when required
user secrets or active definitions are unavailable.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #224
Refs #6057
This PR implements user-specific secret support as a core
secret-management capability rather than a one-off adapter setting. It
is related to existing public work on company secrets UI and runtime
secret refs, but is distinct because the value is owned by the
responsible user and resolved at run dispatch time.
Related PR search before opening found existing secrets work such as
#1550, #8256, #8614, #8634, and #8647; none of those add the full
user-secret definition/value/runtime gate covered here.
## What Changed
- Added user-secret definitions and per-user "My secrets" values,
keeping stored values out of access metadata.
- Added `user_secret_ref` environment bindings and UI affordances to
pick them alongside existing secret refs.
- Added responsible-user runtime resolution so user-secret refs resolve
against the human responsible for the run.
- Added pre-dispatch missing-secret gates so runs fail before adapter
dispatch when required user values are absent or definitions are
inactive.
- Added low-trust allowlist hardening for user-secret runtime access.
- Added issue, routine, run, and agent API key responsible-user
attribution and fail-closed dispatch behavior when attribution cannot be
resolved.
- Added denial-copy mapping so responsible-user authorization failures
surface as actionable run outcomes instead of opaque setup failures.
- Added OpenAPI documentation for the user-secret routes.
- Rebases cleanly on current `master`; migrations were renumbered
incrementally as `0128_user_specific_secrets`,
`0129_agent_api_key_responsible_user`, and
`0130_run_responsible_user_invariant` after upstream `0126`/`0127`
migrations.
- Removed previously committed local design screenshots so the PR
contains code/docs/tests only.

## Risks
- Runtime behavior now depends on a run having a correct responsible
user; missing or incorrect responsibility assignment can block runs
before adapter dispatch.
- `user_secret_ref` bindings intentionally expose metadata without
values, but UI/API callers may need to handle the new binding kind
explicitly.
- External secret providers and IAM policies are not automatically
provisioned by this PR; operators still need to configure provider-side
access for non-local vaults.
- The PR is broad across db/shared/server/UI/runtime paths, so release
validation should include both API and UI secret workflows before merge.
- The migration renumbering is intentionally incremental after upstream
migrations; the branch migrations use guarded
column/table/index/constraint creation so users who tested the older
draft numbering should not hit duplicate DDL for the existing objects.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A core part of that experience is watching active agent runs without
dropping into raw logs first
> - Local and sandbox-backed adapters already record useful run output,
progress, and tool activity
> - But active issue threads could sit visually stale while the agent
was syncing workspaces, tailing sandbox output, or emitting incremental
tool-call updates
> - Operators need timely, human-readable progress while preserving the
raw transcript underneath
> - This pull request streams sandbox run-log progress into runtime
status, keeps visible issue threads refreshed, and folds repeated ACPX
tool updates into stable transcript cards
> - The benefit is that long-running agent work becomes easier to
supervise without changing the task/comment control-plane model
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public GitHub issue exists for this exact change.
Problem/motivation:
- During long-running sandboxed agent work, the issue UI can appear idle
even though the agent is actively syncing, running tools, or producing
incremental output.
- Operators need realtime feedback at the issue-thread layer, not only
after opening raw logs or waiting for the final heartbeat result.
- Related public context: #1808 previously added live-run status dots to
Projects; #4362 touches heartbeat wakeup behavior but is not a duplicate
of this runtime/UI feedback change.
## What Changed
- Added sandbox run-log streaming support and defaulted sandbox-capable
local adapters into the richer live-feedback path.
- Surfaced environment/sandbox sync progress through heartbeat runtime
status with bounded, redacted snippets.
- Added live issue-thread cache patching so visible active runs update
as progress events arrive.
- Folded repeated ACPX `tool_call` updates into one transcript card
instead of stacking duplicate cards.
- Updated adapter docs and added focused regression coverage for sandbox
log streaming, runtime status, ACPX parsing, live updates, transcript
rendering, and issue chat messages.
## Verification

- GitHub PR workflow on head `8397953e7b41ccd42e5d9457ee7e4dfb996e4ec5`:
`verify`, build, typecheck/release-registry, e2e, general shards,

- Greptile Review on head `8397953e7b41ccd42e5d9457ee7e4dfb996e4ec5`:
Confidence Score 5/5, no unresolved review threads.
## Risks
- Live issue-thread cache patching could miss an edge case for a route
shape not covered by tests.
- Surfacing active-run snippets needs continued care around redaction;
this PR keeps snippets bounded and adds redaction-focused coverage.
- More frequent active-run UI refreshes could expose performance issues
on very large issue threads, though updates are scoped to visible
run/query caches.
## Model Used
OpenAI GPT-5 via Codex, operating as a tool-enabled coding agent with
shell, git, and repository-editing capabilities. Context window size is

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Adapter names are part of the board-facing agent setup and
management experience.
> - The product now treats adapters as harnesses, while execution
environments are modeled separately.
> - Several built-in adapter labels still carried legacy local wording
from the older harness-by-environment model.
> - That wording makes the UI noisier and implies a distinction users no
longer need to reason about.
> - This pull request normalizes adapter display labels while keeping
persisted adapter type identifiers unchanged.
> - The benefit is clearer adapter selection and management copy without
a database migration.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public GitHub issue was found for this exact cleanup.
Related public PRs:
- Supersedes #8910, an earlier branch for the same cleanup that did not
include the later docs/gateway/Cursor alignment.
- Refs #8819, which is related display-registry work for external
multi-segment adapter labels, but not a duplicate of this built-in label
cleanup.
Feature request details:
- Subsystem affected: Cross-cutting (`ui/`, `packages/adapters`, and
docs).
- Problem or motivation: user-facing adapter names include legacy local
qualifiers even though adapters map to harnesses and environments are
first-class elsewhere.
- Proposed solution: remove the legacy local wording from built-in
display labels, keep machine-readable adapter type ids unchanged, and
keep gateway disambiguation where it is useful.
- Alternatives considered: changing persisted adapter type ids was ruled
out because it would create migration and compatibility risk; one-off UI
replacements were ruled out because the display registry is already the
correct central label boundary.
- Roadmap alignment: this is small adapter UX polish, not a new
roadmap-level core feature.
## What Changed
- Updated the adapter display registry so known adapter labels are final
and no built-in local adapter renders a legacy local suffix.
- Preserved clean derived labels for unknown plugin local types while
keeping gateway disambiguation for unknown gateway types.
- Updated `AdapterManager` to prefer registry labels when the server
reports raw adapter type ids for built-ins.
- Removed legacy local wording from built-in adapter metadata labels in
UI and adapter packages.
- Aligned Cursor adapter metadata with the central display registry
label.
- Updated adapter docs and Storybook fixtures to match the new display
names.
- Added focused registry coverage for built-in labels and unknown plugin
suffix behavior.
## Verification
- `pnpm check:tokens`
- `git diff --check origin/master...fix/adapter-display-labels`
- Patch-addition scan for added secrets, private paths, and internal
links: no matches.
- GitHub duplicate search for open adapter-label/local-suffix issues and
PRs; #8910 was identified as the older superseded public PR.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
ui/src/adapters/adapter-display-registry.test.ts`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
- Stale-label scan found no remaining user-facing display-label
suffixes; remaining local wording is operational/test terminology such
as adapter ids, docs about running locally, and test descriptions.
## Risks
Low risk. The change is display-label and documentation focused, and
adapter type ids remain unchanged. The main risk is ambiguous gateway
naming, mitigated by keeping explicit gateway labels where variants need
disambiguation.
## Model Used
OpenAI GPT-5 via Codex, tool-enabled coding agent in a local repository
workspace. Context window size is not exposed by this environment.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agent adapters are the boundary between the control plane and the
runtimes that actually do work.
> - Hermes support needs to be available as first-class local and
gateway adapters while still preserving the adapter-manager override
path for external packages.
> - The adapter work touches runtime execution, UI adapter metadata,
onboarding prompts, scoped credentials, release packaging, and smoke
coverage, so the handoff needs concrete verification rather than only
unit tests.
> - This pull request adds built-in Hermes local and Hermes gateway
support, keeps external adapter overrides compatible, and
documents/tests the gateway flow end to end.
> - The benefit is that operators can hire Hermes-backed agents without
a manual plugin install, while self-hosted installs can still
override/shadow the built-ins through Adapter manager packages.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public GitHub issue exists for this exact Hermes built-in adapter,
gateway onboarding, and release-source work.
Problem description:
- Hermes local and gateway adapters need a public, reviewable source
path in the monorepo so package artifacts and built-in adapter behavior
match the application source.
- Operators need built-in `hermes_local` and `hermes_gateway` adapter
choices without losing the ability to install external Hermes packages
as overrides.
- Gateway onboarding needs secure defaults for API server URLs, API
keys, and generated agent setup text.
- Hermes-originated task bridge credentials need narrower API-key scope
configuration.
- Related public PRs found during duplicate search include #3027, #2363,
#7544, #7950, #8095, and #8543.
## What Changed
- Added the unified Hermes adapter package with local and gateway
server/UI/CLI exports, config schemas, transcript parsing, model
detection, and package metadata.
- Registered `hermes_local` and `hermes_gateway` as built-in adapters
across shared constants, server registries, CLI packaging, and UI
adapter registries.
- Kept the external adapter override path compatible so installed Hermes
packages can shadow built-ins and restore the built-in parser when
disabled.
- Added Hermes gateway onboarding docs, board-operator docs, Docker
smoke assets, and shell smoke harnesses for join/e2e validation.
- Added scoped task-bridge API-key support, authorization checks,
issue-origin handling, and tests for Hermes-created Paperclip tasks.
- Hardened gateway transport and redaction behavior for API keys,
headers, session data, and smoke diagnostics.
- Updated release packaging/bootstrap checks for the Hermes packages
while leaving `pnpm-lock.yaml` out of the PR per repository policy.
## Verification
Targeted local verification recorded before PR handoff:
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/hermes-paperclip-adapter exec vitest run
src/gateway/server/execute.test.ts` — 14/14 passed.
- `pnpm test:hermes-gateway-smoke` — 6/6 passed.
- Hermes package typecheck/build checks passed.
- Focused server/UI adapter tests passed — 31/31.
- Release helper Node tests passed — 18/18.
- `git diff --check origin/master..HEAD` passed.
Fresh Docker E2E smoke evidence:
- Ran `pnpm smoke:hermes-gateway-e2e` on 2026-06-26 with a fresh state
directory and fresh Docker container against a live Paperclip dev
server.
- Hermes direct execution reached `completed`.
- Hermes stop/cancel path reached `cancelled`.
- Hermes gateway created a Paperclip task, Paperclip ran the Hermes
agent, and the task reached `done` with the expected marker response.
- Temporary board auth keys, token files, smoke state, and Docker
containers were cleaned up after the run.
PR checks on head `b5eae40ce`:
- GitHub Actions passed: `policy`, `review`, `Typecheck + Release
Registry`, all general test shards, all serialized server shards,
`Build`, `Canary Dry Run`, `e2e`, and aggregate `verify`.
- External checks passed: Snyk and Socket Project Report.
- External Socket Pull Request Alerts remained pending after the
first-party CI matrix completed.
## Risks
- Medium risk: this spans adapter registration, package publishing,
gateway execution, onboarding docs, API-key scoping, and UI adapter
metadata.
- Migration risk is low: the scope-config migration adds a nullable
column and does not rewrite existing keys.
- Gateway execution depends on operator-provided Hermes API
configuration; the smoke covers the Docker gateway path but real
deployments may differ by network/auth setup.
- Direct Greptile review on the latest expanded diff is file-count
limited, although the commitperclip review gate passed.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The pipeline subsystem models repeatable work as items moving
through stages, with agent automation, review gates, blockers, drift
notices, and linked work.
> - Operators need this to be usable as one coherent workflow surface,
not just as backend primitives or disconnected route experiments.
> - The branch now carries the pipeline data model, service/routes,
CLI/tutorial path, aggregation feeds, operator UI, stage automation
controls, liveness/retry handling, and follow-up polish that make the
primitive reviewable end to end.
> - This pull request is the single review target for that pipeline
workflow primitive stack.
> - The benefit is that reviewers can evaluate the full operator
experience and server contract together against `master`.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public GitHub issue exists for this work. The underlying feature
request is described inline.
### Problem or motivation
Paperclip needs a first-class way to model multi-stage agent/company
workflows where upstream items can spawn downstream work, request
review, carry fields across pipelines, surface drift, retry automation,
and show operators where work is blocked or active. Without a unified
pipeline primitive, these workflows spread across ad hoc issues,
routines, and comments, making the state hard to inspect or operate.
### Proposed solution
Add the pipeline workflow primitive stack: database schema and
migrations, shared validators/types, server services and REST routes,
aggregation and liveness helpers, CLI/tutorial smoke support, and the
React operator UI for pipeline lists, boards, item detail,
review/learnings views, settings, stage automation, secrets, carry-over
fields, and retry/recovery flows.
### Alternatives considered
- Keep workflows as loosely linked issues and routines: rejected because
operators need a single board/detail/settings surface for repeated
workflow patterns.
- Ship backend primitives first and defer UI: rejected for this branch
because the operator experience is the main way to validate the
primitive.
- Add a narrower one-off content workflow: rejected because the same
primitives are useful across future company processes.
## What Changed
- Added and evolved pipeline schema, migrations, shared contracts,
server services, REST routes, route tests, and CLI/tutorial smoke
support.
- Added pipeline aggregation, health/liveness, drift acknowledgment,
blocker/carry-over, automation retry, stage automation environment, and
permission recovery behavior.
- Added the operator UI for pipeline index/board/item
detail/settings/review/learnings flows, including stage secrets,
automation controls, markdown/item descriptions, linked issue assets,
liveness banners, and source automation metadata.
- Refactored issue document frame rendering through the shared
`DocumentFrameHeader` component to keep document controls consistent
with the pipeline document surfaces.
- Kept this PR as the single base-branch review target for the current
pipeline branch.
## Verification
Current branch refresh:
- `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/pipelines-service.test.ts` — 31
passed
- `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/pipelines-routes.test.ts` — 19
passed
- `pnpm --filter ./server typecheck` — passed
- `pnpm --filter ./ui typecheck` — passed
- Verified Pipelines remains gated by `enablePipelines === true`:
sidebar item is hidden unless the flag is enabled, direct pipeline
routes redirect to `/dashboard` when disabled, and the Experimental
settings UI still has no Pipelines toggle.
- GitHub status checks on `df071c710646de625131064c3fb6588b5e97964a` —
all complete with no failing conclusions, including Actions, Socket,
Superagent/Security, and Greptile Review
- Greptile summary on `df071c710646de625131064c3fb6588b5e97964a` —
Confidence Score 5/5
- GitHub review-thread sweep — 0 unresolved Greptile threads
Previously recorded during branch development:
- Server pipeline service/route and aggregation tests
- Shared validator tests
- UI pipeline page/settings/item-detail/learnings/liveness tests
- Pipeline tutorial smoke path
## Risks
- High review surface: this is a large feature branch spanning database,
shared contracts, server behavior, CLI/docs, and UI.
- Migration ordering and schema compatibility need reviewer attention
because this branch has been kept current across multiple `master`
syncs.
- GitHub still reports merge state `BLOCKED` because the PR is awaiting
normal human review/branch-protection completion; all current status
checks are green.
- Branch-name checklist exception: this PR uses the pre-existing
requested branch name, which predates the current public-branch naming
rule. The PR title/body avoid internal issue references.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The `codex_local` adapter isolates local Codex runs by assigning
managed `CODEX_HOME` state per company and per agent
> - PR #8272 tightened that isolation, but it left a gap: once
`CODEX_HOME` became explicit, the adapter treated it like a user-managed
override and skipped auth seeding
> - That meant newly isolated agents could launch with no usable
`auth.json`, hit OpenAI unauthenticated, and fail with `401 Missing
bearer`
> - Users who had already persisted one of those broken managed homes
could remain stranded even after config changes unless Paperclip
repaired the home itself
> - This pull request teaches Paperclip to seed managed homes correctly,
backfill already-stranded managed homes on startup, and reject
credential-less managed homes before they reach the provider
> - The benefit is that affected managed `codex_local` agents recover
automatically after upgrade and restart, without manual `CODEX_HOME`
surgery
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
- Fixes#497
- Refs #5028
- Related PR: #8272
- Related PR: #8399
## What Changed
- Distinguished Paperclip-managed `CODEX_HOME` paths from genuine
external overrides and always seeded auth into managed homes, even when
`CODEX_HOME` is explicit in config.
- Wrote API-key-backed `auth.json` files for managed homes when
`OPENAI_API_KEY` is configured, otherwise symlinked the shared Codex
auth for subscription/OAuth flows.
- Added a startup reconciliation pass that backfills already-isolated
managed homes created by the broken release so upgrade plus restart
repairs stranded agents automatically.
- Preserved previously resolved API-key auth when the stored
`OPENAI_API_KEY` binding is secret-backed and startup cannot resolve the
secret value directly.
- Hardened the managed-home preflight to require a credential-bearing
`auth.json`, not just file presence, and documented the recovery
behavior.
- Added regression tests covering managed-home seeding, fail-fast
behavior, and server-side startup reconciliation.

GitHub Actions `PR` workflow is green on latest head `e5b1e08d4`,
including policy, typecheck, test shards, build, e2e, serialized server
suites, and canary dry run. Greptile Review is green on latest head with
0 comments added. No UI changes.
## Risks
- Startup reconciliation now mutates persisted managed Codex homes at
boot. Risk is low because it only touches Paperclip-managed
company/agent home paths and no-ops when a home already has usable auth.
- Genuine external `CODEX_HOME` overrides remain intentionally
self-managed, so those users still own repair steps inside their custom
home.
- Hosts with neither shared Codex auth nor an explicit per-agent API key
now fail earlier with a clearer adapter error instead of surfacing a
downstream `401`, which changes timing but not capability.
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex, GPT-5-based coding agent in a local Codex session; exact
served model ID/context window were not exposed to the session. Tool use
and code execution were enabled.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the control plane operators use to manage AI-agent
companies.
> - Board operators rely on the settings UI and CLI docs to understand
which product surfaces are stable to depend on.
> - Experimental features already existed in the product, but the
operator-facing contract around them was too soft and too fragmented.
> - That created a risk that users would enable experiments without
being told clearly that they can break, change, or disappear.
> - The docs and the in-product settings page both needed the same
explicit warning language so the contract is visible at the moment of
decision.
> - This pull request adds that warning to the board-operator guide, CLI
references, and the experimental settings page.
> - The benefit is clearer operator expectations without changing the
underlying feature flags or rollout behavior.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public GitHub issue exists for this docs/polish gap.
Problem description:
- Board operators could enable experimental features without a clear
operator-facing statement that those features are opt-in and come
without compatibility guarantees.
- The docs site, repo CLI reference, and in-product experimental
settings page did not present one consistent warning contract.
- This PR closes that gap by documenting the risk explicitly where
operators discover and enable those settings.

search prs --repo paperclipai/paperclip 'experimental features
warning'`.
- Reviewed open PR #6165 during that search and found it unrelated; it
changes experimental auth/routing flags rather than documenting
experimental-feature risk.
## What Changed
- Added a new board-operator guide at
`docs/guides/board-operator/experimental-features.md` that defines the
Paperclip contract for experimental features.
- Registered that guide in `docs/docs.json` so it appears in the public
docs navigation.
- Added matching caveat language next to `instance
settings:experimental` in `docs/cli/control-plane-commands.md`.
- Added the same caveat to `doc/CLI.md` so the repo CLI reference does
not drift from the published docs.
- Added a single page-level warning banner to
`ui/src/pages/InstanceExperimentalSettings.tsx` stating that
experimental features are opt-in, carry no compatibility guarantees, and
may change, break, or be removed.
- Added a targeted UI test in
`ui/src/pages/InstanceExperimentalSettings.test.tsx` that asserts
exactly one page-level warning renders with the new risk language.
## Verification
- `jq empty docs/docs.json`
- `git diff --check`
- `cd ui && pnpm vitest run
src/pages/InstanceExperimentalSettings.test.tsx`
- Manual review of the warning contract across:
- `docs/guides/board-operator/experimental-features.md`
- `docs/cli/control-plane-commands.md`
- `doc/CLI.md`
- `ui/src/pages/InstanceExperimentalSettings.tsx`
UI note:
- This is a copy-level warning addition rather than a layout rework. I
did not attach before/after screenshots in this PR body.
## Risks
- Low risk: this changes operator-facing documentation and warning copy,
not feature-flag behavior.
- The main failure mode is wording drift across docs and UI in future
edits, which is why this PR adds the same contract to all relevant
operator-facing surfaces.
> I checked `ROADMAP.md` before opening this PR. This is docs/UI polish
around an existing experimental surface, not overlapping roadmap-level
core feature work.
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex Local using `gpt-5.4` with high reasoning and tool use
for coordination, review, docs changes, and PR preparation.
- Anthropic Claude Local using `claude-opus-4-8` with high reasoning and
tool use for the in-product warning and targeted UI test.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The task lifecycle and recovery subsystems decide when agent work is
still productive, stalled, or ready for review.
> - Existing recovery paths can observe stopped or incomplete work, but
there was no first-class per-task watchdog model with scoped review
permissions.
> - Watchdog follow-ups also need strict boundaries so
recovery/status-only runs cannot mutate approvals or perform deliverable
work.
> - This pull request adds the task watchdog data model, API/service
layer, scheduler/review flow, adapter wake context, UI configuration
surfaces, and docs.
> - The branch has been rebased onto current `paperclipai/paperclip`
`master`; the watchdog migration is now ordered after master's latest
migrations as `0104_issue_watchdogs`.
> - The benefit is a more explicit task-review loop that preserves
Paperclip's single-assignee and governance invariants while making
stalled work easier to route.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No linked GitHub issue. Paperclip task:
[PAP-11275](/PAP/issues/PAP-11275).
## Problem or motivation
Task recovery needs a first-class watchdog path that can inspect stopped
work and create scoped follow-ups without bypassing normal task
ownership. Board/UI users need a way to configure watchdogs on tasks and
see watchdog-related live work. Recovery/status-only runs must remain
limited to status reporting and must not create approvals, link
approvals, or submit approval comments.
## Proposed solution
Add a task-watchdog data model, scheduler/classifier, scoped mutation
guard, adapter wake context, API/UI configuration surfaces, and
documentation so watchdog agents can review stopped task subtrees under
explicit boundaries.
## Alternatives considered
Reuse the existing recovery-action flow only. That would keep
stopped-work detection implicit, make per-task watchdog assignment
harder to expose in the UI, and would not provide a durable
scoped-review issue for stalled task trees.
## Roadmap alignment
This is Paperclip control-plane lifecycle infrastructure for task
execution and recovery. I checked `ROADMAP.md`; this PR does not
duplicate an existing planned core item.
## What Changed
- Added issue watchdog schema, migration, shared contracts, validators,
CRUD API, and service support.
- Added task watchdog scheduler/classifier behavior, scoped mutation
enforcement, adapter wake context, and default watchdog mandate
guidance.
- Added UI surfaces for configuring watchdogs on new/existing tasks,
viewing watchdog activity, and exposing the experimental setting.
- Added docs for the user-facing task watchdog workflow and
implementation semantics.
- Gated new-task watchdog setup behind `enableTaskWatchdogs` and blocked
cheap status-only recovery runs from approval mutations.
- Rebased onto current `master` and renumbered the idempotent watchdog
migration from the branch-local `0102_issue_watchdogs` slot to
`0104_issue_watchdogs`.
- Addressed Greptile feedback by loading watchdog classifier input with
a recursive subtree query and centralizing the watchdog origin-kind
constant.
- Added and updated focused server/UI tests for watchdog routes,
scheduler/classifier behavior, scope boundaries, live task visibility,
settings, and new issue dialog behavior.
## Verification
- `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/task-watchdogs-scheduler.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/task-watchdogs-classifier.test.ts`
- `pnpm vitest run
server/src/__tests__/approval-routes-idempotency.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-agent-mutation-ownership-routes.test.ts`
- `pnpm vitest run ui/src/components/NewIssueDialog.test.tsx`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- `git diff --check`
- Verified the PR diff does not include `pnpm-lock.yaml` or
`.github/workflows`.
## Risks
- Medium risk: this introduces a new task lifecycle surface touching DB
schema, server routes/services, adapter wake context, and UI task
configuration.
- Watchdog scheduling behavior depends on the new experimental setting
and runtime context checks behaving consistently across local and
production agents.
- The watchdog migration is idempotent (`IF NOT EXISTS` /
duplicate-object guards) so users who tried the previous branch-local
migration number should not get duplicate-object failures.
- CI and the second Greptile pass are pending after the latest
review-fix push.

## Model Used
OpenAI Codex, GPT-5-class coding agent in the Paperclip workspace. Exact
runtime model id and context window were not exposed to the agent; tool

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip's `claude_local` adapter persists Claude Code session
jsonls under `~/.claude/projects/…/{sessionId}.jsonl` and resumes them
on the next heartbeat
> - When Claude Code injects `<synthetic>` placeholder assistant
messages (after rate-limit, max-turn exhaustion, or transient-upstream
failures) those placeholders get UUID-format `message.id`s rather than
`msg_…`-format ids
> - On the next `--resume`, Claude Code passes that UUID as
`previous_message_id` and Anthropic's API rejects it with a 400:
``diagnostics.previous_message_id: must be the `id` from a prior
/v1/messages response (starts with `msg_`)``
> - The adapter had a session-rotation fallback only for "unknown
session" errors, so the poisoned session was `--resume`-d indefinitely
and the agent flipped between `idle` and `error` every heartbeat
> - Even worse, the *result* event of the failing run still carried a
`session_id`, and the adapter was persisting that id into the
issue-scoped session store (`agentTaskSessions`). So even after we
detected the 400, every subsequent continuation re-loaded the same
poisoned id and hit the same 400 again — the issue was permanently
stranded
> - We observed this on multiple agents in our deployment; the only
manual fix was to rename the `.jsonl`, which is not a viable long-term
workaround
> - This PR detects the 400, runs the same session-rotation fallback the
unknown-session path uses **and** stops persisting the poisoned id, so
the next attempt starts genuinely fresh
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No external GitHub issue is linked. Describing the problem inline
following the bug-report template:
**What happened:** `claude_local` agents flipped between `idle` and
`error` on every heartbeat because the persisted session jsonl carried a
synthetic UUID `previous_message_id` (from `<synthetic>` assistant
placeholders injected after rate-limit/max-turn/upstream errors).
Anthropic's API rejected every `--resume` with a 400:
``diagnostics.previous_message_id: must be the `id` from a prior
/v1/messages response (starts with `msg_`)``.
**Expected behavior:** When the persisted session is poisoned and
unrecoverable, the adapter should rotate to a fresh session — the same
fallback path already used for unknown-session errors — and stop
re-persisting the poisoned `session_id`.
**Actual behavior:** The session-rotation fallback only matched the
"unknown session" pattern, so the poisoned session was `--resume`-d
forever. The result event of the failing run still carried `session_id`,
which was being persisted into `agentTaskSessions`, so every subsequent
continuation reloaded the same poisoned id and hit the same 400.
**Reproduction:** Inject any flow that causes Claude Code to emit a
`<synthetic>` placeholder (rate-limit, max-turn exhaustion, transient
upstream failure). The next `--resume` will fail with the 400 and the
agent will not self-recover.
**Scope of fix:** Add a `previous_message_id` 400 detector; route it
through the existing unknown-session fallback; drop the poisoned
`sessionId` and emit `clearSession: true` so the heartbeat service wipes
the persisted row; best-effort delete the local poisoned `.jsonl`.
## What Changed
Two commits:
1. **`adapter-claude-local: auto-rotate session on previous_message_id
400 (synthetic-msg poisoning)`** — detector + execute-time rotation
2. **`adapter-claude-local: guard against persisting poisoned
sessionId`** — validate-before-persist + `clearSession`
Combined diff:
- `parse.ts`: new `isClaudePoisonedPreviousMessageIdError(parsed)`
matching ``/diagnostics\.previous_message_id.*starts with `msg_`/i``
against `parsed.result` and `extractClaudeErrorMessages(parsed)`
- `parse.ts`: `isClaudeTransientUpstreamError()` excludes the new error
from transient classification so it isn't masked as retryable upstream
noise
- `execute.ts`: expand the resume-fallback branch so it triggers on both
`isClaudeUnknownSessionError` and the new
`isClaudePoisonedPreviousMessageIdError`, with a distinct log line
(`"returned a poisoned message-id"` vs `"is unavailable"`)
- `execute.ts`: for local (non-remote) execution targets, best-effort
delete the poisoned `~/.claude/projects/.../{sessionId}.jsonl` before
retrying so the file can't be accidentally resumed by an out-of-band
caller. The `fs.unlink` and follow-up log call are in separate try/catch
blocks so a closed log stream cannot mask a successful unlink (and vice
versa)
- `execute.ts` / `toAdapterResult`: when a result carries the poisoned
400, **drop** `sessionId`/`sessionParams`/`sessionDisplayId` (return
`null`) and emit `clearSession: true` so the heartbeat service's
`resolveNextSessionState` wipes the persisted row. The result also
surfaces `errorCode: "claude_poisoned_previous_message_id"` for
observability
- `docs/adapters/claude-local.md`: runbook entry — symptom,
auto-recovery flow, on-call checklist
- Tests:
- 4 new `parse.test.ts` cases covering positive detection in `result`
and `errors[]`, negative cases, and non-transient classification
- 3 new `claude-local-execute.test.ts` cases: (a) fresh run reports the
poisoned error → sessionId dropped + `clearSession: true`; (b) recovery
retry also reports the poisoned error → same guards apply; (c)
session-rotation success on retry
## Verification
```bash
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-claude-local exec vitest run src/server/parse.test.ts
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run src/__tests__/claude-local-execute.test.ts
```
Both suites green locally. This patch is also currently running as a
hot-patch over the published `2026.513.0` adapter on the reporting
deployment — sessions that previously looped indefinitely now
self-recover on the first heartbeat after the 400 surfaces.
## Risks
- Low risk. The detector is conservative (regex over `result` +
`errors[]` only) and the rotation reuses the existing unknown-session
fallback path
- The local-only `fs.unlink` of the poisoned `.jsonl` is wrapped in
`try/catch` and ignored on failure — strictly an optimization; the
server-side session clear is the authoritative reset
- Remote execution targets (`executionTargetIsRemote`) skip the disk
cleanup because the file lives on a remote host that we can't safely
reach from the adapter
- The `clearSession: true` + nulled session fields path is a no-op on
healthy runs; it only fires when the new detector matches, so existing
successful continuations are unaffected
- No DB schema changes, no public API changes, no new dependencies
## Model Used
- Provider: Anthropic Claude
- Model: `claude-opus-4-7` (Opus 4.7)
- Context window: 1M
- Capabilities: extended reasoning, tool use, code execution
- Role: implemented the detector, expanded the fallback branch, added
the persist-guard + `clearSession`, wrote the unit + integration tests,
validated locally, and applied the equivalent hot-patch to the deployed
`2026.513.0` install while this PR is in review

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work, and it runs agents through pluggable adapters.
> - One of those adapters, `gemini_local`
(`packages/adapters/gemini-local/`), runs Google's Gemini CLI on the
same host as the server.
> - For local (in-container) execution, the adapter only probes `PATH`
for the binary (`packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target.ts`); it
does **not** auto-install — only `sandbox` transport targets install on
demand via `SANDBOX_INSTALL_COMMAND`.
> - The production Docker image bakes in `claude`, `codex`, and
`opencode` so their `*_local` adapters work out of the box, but `gemini`
was never added — so `gemini_local` fails inside the container with a
missing-binary error.
> - This PR adds `@google/gemini-cli@latest` to the image's global
install so `gemini_local` works locally like the other bundled CLIs,
sets `GEMINI_SANDBOX=false` for safe in-container CLI use, and documents
all bundled CLIs.
> - The benefit is plug-and-play Gemini support in Docker with no
per-deployment CLI install step, plus accurate docs (including a
previously-undocumented `opencode` bundle) and a heads-up about Google's
imminent unrestricted-API-key block.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No existing issue. Following the **adapter/feature** template fields:
- **Capability:** Run the existing `gemini_local` adapter inside the
official Docker image without a manual CLI install.
- **Problem/motivation:** The image pre-installs `claude`, `codex`, and
`opencode`, but not `gemini`. Because local execution probes `PATH` and
never auto-installs (only sandbox targets do), `gemini_local` runs fail
in-container with a missing-binary error. Operators currently have to
maintain a forked image.
- **Proposed solution:** Add `@google/gemini-cli@latest` to the existing
global `npm install` line; set `GEMINI_SANDBOX=false` in `ENV`.
- **Alternatives considered:** Runtime install at container start
(slower, network-dependent, inconsistent with how the other three CLIs
are handled).
**Related / superseded PRs** (both make the same Dockerfile change and
can be closed if this merges):
- #5912 — `fix(docker): install gemini-cli and normalize persistent
volume permissions`. Same Dockerfile line, but also bundles unrelated
volume-permission and heartbeat-test changes, and a maintainer noted it
now has a merge conflict. I corrected Greptile's `GEMINI_SANDBOX`
reasoning there and it was re-scored 5/5 (see [resolved
thread](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/5912#discussion_r3367332785))
— this PR is the rebased, docs-complete, single-purpose version of that
change.
- #2731 — `Added @google/gemini-cli to the Dockerfile`. One-liner, now
stale and merge-conflicting (predates the `opencode-ai` addition).
> **Note for Greptile:** the `--sandbox=none` reasoning for the Gemini
CLI sandbox concern was already validated on #5912's `Dockerfile:59`
thread and accepted (re-scored 5/5). This PR additionally bakes
`GEMINI_SANDBOX=false` into `ENV` as defense-in-depth, so the concern is
covered both at the adapter layer and the image layer.
## What Changed
- **Dockerfile:** add `@google/gemini-cli@latest` to the production
global npm install (after `opencode-ai`).
- **Dockerfile:** add `GEMINI_SANDBOX=false` to the `ENV` block (matches
the existing `OPENCODE_ALLOW_ALL_MODELS=true` precedent) so a
manually-invoked `gemini` inside the container does not attempt a
Docker-in-Docker sandbox.
- **docs/deploy/docker.md:** rename the section to "Local Adapter CLIs
in Docker"; list all four bundled CLIs mapped to their adapter type keys
(fixes a pre-existing gap — `opencode` was bundled but undocumented);
add `GEMINI_API_KEY` to the example; document per-provider credentials,
the `GEMINI_SANDBOX=false` default, and Google's 2026-06-19
unrestricted-key block with the `gemini auth login` (OAuth) alternative.
## Verification
- `npm view @google/gemini-cli` confirms the package exists, provides
the `gemini` bin, and requires Node `>=20` (the base image is Node 22
LTS). ✅
- Adapter already disables the CLI sandbox per run:
`packages/adapters/gemini-local/src/server/execute.ts` pushes
`--sandbox=none` whenever `config.sandbox` is false (the default). ✅
- Confirmed neither file was modified on `upstream/master`, so this
rebases cleanly with no conflicts. ✅
- Full image build is exercised by CI. (I did not run the multi-stage
`docker build` locally; the change adds one package to an existing,
working `npm install` line.)
- Reviewer manual check: `docker build -t paperclip-local . && docker
run --rm paperclip-local gemini --version` should print the CLI version.
## Risks
- **Low risk.** Adds one npm package to an existing global install and
one inert env var; no application code paths change.
- Minor image-size increase from the additional CLI (consistent with the
three already bundled).
- `@latest` is unpinned — intentionally consistent with the sibling
`@anthropic-ai/claude-code@latest` / `@openai/codex@latest` on the same
line; pinning all of them is a separate decision out of scope here.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source control plane people use to manage AI
agents for work.
> - Agent runtime state is surfaced in both the server API and the board
UI so operators can tell whether an agent is idle, running, paused, or
in error.
> - When an agent is already in `error`, the existing pause/resume
action slot is not useful because there is no running work to pause.
> - Operators need a direct, audited recovery path that clears the stale
error state only for agents in the same company.
> - This pull request adds a company-scoped clear-error mutation,
exposes the shared API contract, and wires the board action cluster to
show Clear error in the pause/resume slot for errored agents.
> - The benefit is that operators can recover CEO/CTO-style errored
agents without resorting to database edits or unrelated session reset
actions.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #4021
Paperclip issue: PAP-10515 — right now the CEO and CTO agents are in
error state, but there is no way to clear the error; they appear
otherwise fine.
## What Changed
- Added shared constants, API path, and agent status type support for a
company-scoped clear-error action.
- Added the server service and route to clear an agent from `error` back
to `idle`, with company access enforcement and activity logging.
- Added OpenAPI/docs coverage for the clear-error endpoint.
- Added backend coverage for service behavior and cross-tenant
authorization.
- Updated the board agent action cluster to show a red-tinted Clear
error button only when `agent.status === "error"`.
- Updated agent properties to show a red active last-error indicator
only while the agent is currently errored.
- Added UI component tests for the error-state action and the non-error
pause/resume behavior.
## Verification
Local:
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/agents-service-clear-error.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/agent-cross-tenant-authz-routes.test.ts
ui/src/components/AgentActionButtons.test.tsx`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts`
PR checks:
- Main Paperclip workflow is green on
`a7378e584d50594e7bd507a1a02985bfaaa5abf8`.
- Greptile is 5/5 with no files requiring special attention and no new
comments on the latest review.
- `commitperclip PR Review` is still red because its security-gate step
canceled after filing a draft advisory; the linked `security-review`
check is neutral and says the draft advisory is not a merge block.
Visual artifact:
- 
## Risks
Low to medium risk. The mutation is intentionally narrow, but reviewers
should check that clearing `lastError`/`lastRunError` and returning to
`idle` is the desired recovery semantics for every adapter state. The
remaining red check is from the external commitperclip security-review
workflow, not from the code/test workflow for this PR.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the control plane for AI-agent companies, and reusable
company/team setup is part of making those companies faster to launch.
> - The teams catalog work introduces app-shipped team templates that
can be browsed, previewed, and installed into a company.
> - Catalog installation crosses several contracts: bundled package
contents, shared API types, server import/install behavior, CLI
workflows, and the board UI.
> - Agents also need a safe path through catalog installs: scoped
company selection, explicit source policy, approval fallback for agent
creation, and preserved catalog provenance.
> - This pull request extracts the completed teams catalog branch into
one reviewable PR on top of `public-gh/master`.
> - The benefit is a reusable teams catalog foundation with server, CLI,
package, docs, and hidden UI surfaces kept in sync.

- Added the `@paperclipai/teams-catalog` package with bundled/optional
team definitions, generated manifest, validators, catalog builder tests,
and migration notes.
- Added shared teams catalog types/validators plus server routes and
services for listing, previewing, and installing catalog teams.
- Integrated catalog install with company portability, skill/source
policy checks, provenance metadata, origin hashes, target-manager
reparenting, and installed/out-of-date detection.
- Added CLI `teams` commands and agent-safe company selection behavior,
including `company current` and approval fallback for forbidden
agent-run installs.
- Added hidden Team Catalog UI/API/query surfaces, Storybook fixtures,
and targeted UI tests while keeping the UI route out of primary
navigation.
- Added docs for CLI/company/teams catalog behavior and removed
generated screenshot artifacts from the PR diff.
## Verification

- Confirmed branch is rebased onto `public-gh/master` (`78dc3625a`) and
`public-gh/master` is an ancestor of `HEAD`.
- Confirmed PR diff excludes `pnpm-lock.yaml`, `.github/workflows/*`,
generated screenshot images, and screenshot helper scripts.
## Risks
- Medium review surface: this crosses package generation, shared
contracts, server install behavior, CLI, docs, and hidden UI code.
- Catalog install behavior creates agents/projects/tasks/skills and must
keep company scoping, permissions, source policy, and provenance checks
strict.
- `pnpm-lock.yaml` is intentionally excluded per repo policy;
CI/default-branch automation owns lockfile refresh.
- The Team Catalog UI is included but hidden from primary navigation, so
future enablement should re-check visual QA before exposure.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents across isolated execution
workspaces; the local cwd is the only persistence boundary between runs.
> - Workspace lifecycle (worktree_prepare → execute →
workspace_finalize) and the wake/accept flow are what guarantee that
dependent issues see a consistent worktree.
> - PAPA-380 / PAPA-431 / PAPA-432 / PAPA-440 surfaced three holes in
that contract: silent env reuse across assignees, dependent wakes firing
before finalize, and `issue.interaction.accept` advancing before
finalize landed.
> - PAPA-441 / PAPA-442 then needed to document the "no remote git"
contract and prevent future adapter/runtime code from quietly
reintroducing `git push` as a backdoor sync.
> - This pull request lands those server fixes, the static
`check-no-git-push` enforcement, the AUTHORING.md cross-link, and the
Cody-review follow-ups on the PAPA-430 thread.
> - The benefit is that finalize is a real barrier — board accepts,
dependent wakes, and operator-set env all respect it — and adapter code
can't bypass it via raw `git push`.
## What Changed
- **server (PAPA-380, PAPA-431):** `execution-workspace-policy` refuses
silent env reuse when the assignee's resolved env disagrees with the
workspace it would inherit. The inheritance protection is now scoped to
the actual inheritance signal — explicit issue-level `environmentId` is
honored even when the agent's default env is `null`.
- **server (PAPA-432):** `heartbeat.ts` gates dependent wakes on
`listUnfinalizedExecutionWorkspaceIds`, and writes a
`workspace_finalize` row on the succeeded path. Write failures now
surface instead of being swallowed so dependents aren't silently
stranded behind a missing row.
- **server (PAPA-440):** `issue-thread-interactions.acceptInteraction`
adds a workspace_finalize precondition for `request_confirmation` (not
`suggest_tasks`). Accept returns 409 if finalize hasn't succeeded for
the latest workspace operation.
- **ci (PAPA-442):** new `scripts/check-no-git-push.mjs` static check
scans `packages/adapters/`, `packages/adapter-utils/`, `server/src/`,
and `cli/src/` for any `git push` invocation (string or args-array).
Wired into the `policy` PR job and `test:release-registry`. Operators
can opt in per-call with `// paperclip:allow-git-push: <reason>`.
Release scripts are out of scope by design.
- **docs (PAPA-441):** `AUTHORING.md` documents the no-remote-git
contract and cross-links the static check so adapter authors learn the
rule and the enforcement together.
- **review follow-up (PAPA-430, Cody):** three fixes — env resolver bug,
accept-gate scope (request_confirmation only), and finalize record write
on the succeeded path.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/execution-workspace-policy.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interactions-service.test.ts` → 33/33
pass
- `node scripts/check-no-git-push.test.mjs` → check covers string form,
args-array form, comment exclusions, and per-line allow-comment.
- Manual: server compiles; the policy job runs the check in <1s before
heavier jobs.
## Risks
- **Behavioral shift in accept:** boards accepting
`request_confirmation` while finalize is in-flight now get 409s. This is
intentional — they can retry — but it changes timing on a hot path.
`suggest_tasks` is unaffected.
- **Workspace policy:** the env-reuse refusal is a new error path.
Issues that previously silently reused an env from a different-assignee
workspace will now fail-loud; the resolver still honors explicit
issue-level `executionWorkspaceSettings.environmentId`.
- **CI rule:** any future legitimate `git push` in scoped dirs must be
marked with the allow-comment, which is the intended ergonomic.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies through
company-scoped control-plane workflows.
> - Agents need reusable, inspectable skills that can be installed,
reset, audited, exported, and assigned without bespoke local setup.
> - The existing skill truth model needed cleanup so bundled skills,
optional catalog skills, runtime skills, and adapter-provided skills
have clear provenance.
> - Operators also need a practical CLI and board UI for discovering and
managing company skills.
> - This pull request adds the skills CLI, packaged skills catalog,
company skills APIs, and catalog-aware board UI.
> - The benefit is a more reusable Paperclip company setup where skills
are portable, auditable, and easier for operators and agents to manage.
## What Changed
- Added `paperclipai skills` CLI commands and coverage for catalog
listing, installing, resetting, and inspecting company skills.
- Added a packaged `@paperclipai/skills-catalog` workspace with bundled
and optional skill content plus validation/build tests.
- Added shared company-skill types and validators used across CLI,
server, and UI contracts.
- Added server catalog APIs/services for company skill catalog
operations, reset semantics, audit behavior, and portability provenance.
- Updated adapter skill handling so runtime/catalog provenance remains
explicit across local adapters.
- Added board UI support for browsing and managing catalog-backed
company skills.
- Updated docs for the skills CLI/catalog flow and the company skills
Paperclip skill reference.
- Rebased the branch onto current `paperclipai/paperclip:master`; no
`pnpm-lock.yaml`, `.github/workflows`, or migration files are included
in the final PR diff.
## Verification
- Passed: `pnpm run preflight:workspace-links && pnpm exec vitest run
cli/src/__tests__/skills.test.ts
packages/skills-catalog/src/catalog-builder.test.ts
packages/skills-catalog/src/shipped-catalog.test.ts

server/src/__tests__/company-skills-catalog-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-skills-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-portability.test.ts`.
- Passed: `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts -t "default
branch|origin/master|symbolic-ref"`.
- Attempted: full `server/src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts`. Four
provisioning tests failed while seeding an isolated worktree database
from the local Paperclip instance because the local plugin schema dump
contains a duplicate-column foreign key
(`plugin_content_machine_18a7bc327b.content_case_signals`). The
default-branch tests touched by the rebase conflict passed in the
focused run above.
- Checked final diff: no `pnpm-lock.yaml`, no `.github/workflows`, and
no migration-file changes relative to `master`.
## Risks
- Medium: this is a broad skills/catalog change touching CLI, server
APIs, shared contracts, adapter skill sync, and UI.
- Catalog validation and reset semantics need careful reviewer attention
because they affect reusable company setup and portability.
- No database migrations are included in this PR, so there is no
migration ordering/idempotency risk in the final diff.
- No lockfile is included by design; dependency resolution will be
handled by the repository lockfile workflow.
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex coding agent based on GPT-5, running in Paperclip via the
`codex_local` adapter with shell, git, GitHub CLI, and code-editing tool
access. Exact hosted model build/context-window metadata is not exposed
in this runtime.

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip operators spend most of their time scanning the board,
inbox, sidebar, and local dev status surfaces
> - Small UI and dev-ops frictions make repeated operator workflows feel
slower than they need to be
> - The working branch contained several independent quality-of-life
improvements mixed with larger cloud work
> - Grouping these smaller UI/dev-ops changes together keeps review
overhead reasonable without merging them into feature PRs
> - This pull request collects the operator-facing QoL polish into one
standalone branch
> - The benefit is a cleaner board navigation and local dev recovery
experience without depending on cloud upstream sync
## What Changed
- Relaxed forced 44px touch targets for small inline widgets.
- Fixed mobile mention menu scrolling and sidebar spacing on
touch/mobile layouts.
- Synced inbox hover state with j/k selection.
- Moved plugin sidebar entries into the Work section.
- Added manual dev-server restart action/banner behavior.
- Logged plugin bridge 502 causes for better diagnosis.
## Verification
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile --ignore-scripts`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/plugin-sdk build`
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/components/MarkdownEditor.test.tsx
ui/src/components/Sidebar.test.tsx
ui/src/components/SidebarProjects.test.tsx ui/src/pages/Inbox.test.tsx
ui/src/components/DevRestartBanner.test.tsx
server/src/__tests__/dev-server-status.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/health-dev-server-token.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/plugin-routes-authz.test.ts` initially failed only
because plugin SDK `dist` was not built in the fresh worktree.
- Rerun after build: `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/plugin-routes-authz.test.ts` passed.
- The remaining targeted UI/dev-server tests passed on the first
post-install run.
## Visual Evidence
- Sidebar layout and plugin Work section: 
- Inbox/task row selection and hover-state surface: 
- Dev restart banner desktop: 
- Dev restart banner mobile: 
## Risks
- Mostly UI/dev ergonomics with low data risk.
- Sidebar and inbox changes touch frequently used navigation surfaces,
so visual review on desktop/mobile is still useful.

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI-agent companies and needs secrets handling
to work across local development, hosted operators, and governed agent
execution.
> - The affected subsystem is the company-scoped secrets control plane:
database schema, server services/routes, CLI workflows, and the Secrets
settings UI.
> - The gap was that secrets were local-only and operators could not
manage provider vaults or import existing remote references without
exposing plaintext.
> - This branch adds provider vault configuration plus an AWS Secrets
Manager remote-import path while preserving company boundaries, binding
context, and audit trails.
> - I kept the PR to a single branch PR, removed unrelated
lockfile/package drift, rebased the full branch onto the current
`public-gh/master`, and addressed fresh Greptile findings.
> - The benefit is a reviewable implementation of provider-backed
secrets with focused tests covering provider selection, import
conflicts, deleted secret reuse, rotation guards, and AWS signing
behavior.
## What Changed
- Added provider vault support for company secrets, including provider
config storage, default vault handling, health checks, binding usage,
access events, and remote import preview/commit.
- Added an AWS Secrets Manager provider using SigV4 request signing,
bounded request timeouts, namespace guardrails, cached runtime
credential resolution, and external-reference linking without plaintext
reads.
- Added Secrets UI surfaces for vault management and remote import, plus
CLI/API documentation for setup and operations.
- Stabilized routine webhook secret binding paths and SSH
environment-driver fixture bindings discovered during verification.
- Addressed Greptile and CI findings: no lockfile/package drift,
monotonic migration metadata, disabled-vault default races, soft-deleted
secret hiding/recreate behavior, remove behavior with disabled vaults,
soft-deleted external-reference re-import, non-active rotation guards,
managed-secret soft deletion through PATCH, and per-call AWS SDK
credential client churn.
- Rebased this branch onto `public-gh/master` at `0e1a5828` and
force-pushed with lease to keep this as the single PR for the branch.
## Verification
- `git fetch public-gh master`
- `git rebase public-gh/master`
- `git diff --name-only public-gh/master...HEAD | grep
'^pnpm-lock\.yaml$' || true` confirmed `pnpm-lock.yaml` is not in the PR
diff.
- Confirmed migration ordering: master ends at `0081_optimal_dormammu`;
this PR adds `0082_dry_vision` and
`0083_company_secret_provider_configs`.
- Inspected migrations for repeat safety: new tables/indexes use `IF NOT
EXISTS`; foreign keys are guarded by `DO $$ ... IF NOT EXISTS`; column
additions use `ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS`.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed before the Greptile follow-up commits.
- `pnpm test:run` ran the full stable Vitest path before the Greptile
follow-up commits; it completed with 3 timing-related failures under
parallel load: `codex-local-execute.test.ts`,
`cursor-local-execute.test.ts`, and `environment-service.test.ts`.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/codex-local-execute.test.ts
src/__tests__/cursor-local-execute.test.ts
src/__tests__/environment-service.test.ts` passed on targeted rerun
(`24/24`).
- `pnpm build` passed before the Greptile follow-up commits. Vite
reported existing chunk-size/dynamic-import warnings.
- After Greptile follow-up commits: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server
exec vitest run src/__tests__/secrets-service.test.ts` passed (`26/26`).
- After Greptile follow-up commits: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server
exec vitest run src/__tests__/aws-secrets-manager-provider.test.ts
src/__tests__/secrets-service.test.ts` passed (`39/39`).
- After Greptile follow-up commits: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server
typecheck` passed.
- Captured Storybook screenshots from `ui/storybook-static` for visual
review.
- Latest PR checks on `5ca3a5cf`: `policy`, serialized server suites
1/4-4/4, `Canary Dry Run`, `e2e`, `security/snyk`, and `Greptile Review`
pass; aggregate `verify` is still registering the completed child
checks.
- Greptile review loop continued through the latest requested pass; all
Greptile review threads are resolved and the latest `Greptile Review`
check on `5ca3a5cf` passed with 0 comments added.
## Screenshots
Before: the provider-vault and remote-import surfaces did not exist on
`master`; these are after-state screenshots from the Storybook fixtures.
## Risks
- Migration risk: this adds new secret provider tables and extends
existing secret rows. The migrations were checked for monotonic ordering
and idempotent guards, but reviewers should still inspect upgrade
behavior carefully.
- Provider risk: AWS support uses direct SigV4 requests. Automated tests
cover signing, request timeouts, vault-config selection, namespace
guardrails, pending-version archival, sanitized provider errors, and
service-level cleanup paths. A real-vault AWS smoke test remains
deployment validation for an operator with AWS credentials rather than
an unverified merge blocker in this local branch.
- UI risk: the Secrets page and import dialog are large new surfaces;
screenshots are included above for reviewer inspection.
- Verification risk: the full local stable test command hit
parallel-load timing failures, although the exact failed files passed
when rerun directly.
- Operational risk: remote import intentionally avoids plaintext reads;
operators must understand that imported external references resolve at
runtime and may fail if AWS permissions change.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - The issue graph and liveness recovery system decide whether assigned
work is executable or parked
> - Assigned issues created without an explicit status could silently
land in backlog, making parents look blocked with no productive wake
path
> - The server, shared validators, recovery analysis, and UI all need to
agree on that execution semantic
> - This pull request makes assigned issue creation default to `todo`,
flags assigned backlog blockers, and surfaces the state in the board
> - The benefit is that parked assigned work becomes intentional and
visible instead of creating silent liveness stalls
## What Changed
- Adds contract tests for assigned issue creation defaults.
- Defaults assigned issue creation to `todo` when status is omitted
while preserving explicit `backlog` parking.
- Exposes `resolveCreateIssueStatusDefault` through shared validators.
- Teaches liveness/blocker attention paths to distinguish assigned
backlog blockers.
- Adds UI notices, row/header badges, and issue detail safeguards for
assigned backlog blockers.
- Adds Storybook fixtures and execution-semantics documentation for the
assigned-backlog behavior.
## Verification
- `pnpm run preflight:workspace-links && pnpm exec vitest run
packages/shared/src/validators/issue.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-assigned-backlog-contract-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-blocker-attention.test.ts

server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-issue-liveness-escalation.test.ts
ui/src/components/IssueAssignedBacklogNotice.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueRow.test.tsx` — 50 passed, 23 skipped.
- Skipped tests were embedded Postgres suites on this host with the repo
skip message: `Postgres init script exited with code null. Please check
the logs for extra info. The data directory might already exist.`
- Pairwise merge check against the issue-controls PR branch completed
without conflicts via `git merge --no-commit --no-ff` in a temporary
worktree.
- Screenshots for assigned-backlog UI states:
[light](docs/pr-screenshots/pr-5428/assigned-backlog-light.png),
[dark](docs/pr-screenshots/pr-5428/assigned-backlog-dark.png).
- Follow-up checks: `pnpm --filter /ui typecheck`; `pnpm --filter
/mcp-server build`; `pnpm --filter /mcp-server test`; `pnpm exec vitest
run packages/shared/src/validators/issue.test.ts`; focused UI component
tests.
- Remote PR checks on head `6300b3c`: policy, verify, serialized server
shards 1/4-4/4, Canary Dry Run, e2e, Greptile Review, and Snyk all
passed.
## Risks
- Medium: changes status defaulting for assigned issue creation when the
caller omits status. Explicit `backlog` remains supported, and
server/shared tests cover both paths.
- Medium: liveness classification changes can affect blocker attention
labels; focused service and UI tests cover the new assigned-backlog
state.

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Issue operators need clear controls for execution settings, model
overrides, and recovery retries
> - Existing issue properties hid useful adapter override state and did
not expose a board-triggered retry for scheduled heartbeat recovery
> - Scheduled retries also need to respect the same safety gates as
normal execution instead of bypassing budget, review, pause, dependency,
or terminal-state checks
> - This pull request adds the issue property controls and retry-now
surfaces together because they share the issue details/properties UI
> - The benefit is that operators can inspect and adjust issue execution
settings and safely trigger pending scheduled recovery without hidden
control-plane behavior
## What Changed
- Adds editable issue assignee model override controls in
`IssueProperties`, with focused coverage.
- Removes the stale workspace tasks link from issue properties.
- Adds a scheduled retry `retry-now` backend path and shared response
types.
- Adds main-pane and properties-pane scheduled retry UI, backed by a
shared `useRetryNowMutation` hook.
- Adds suppression coverage for budget hard stops, review participant
changes, subtree pause holds, unresolved blockers, terminal issues, and
company scoping.
- Updates the `IssueProperties` test harness with toast actions required
by the retry-now hook.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/components/IssueProperties.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueScheduledRetryCard.test.tsx` — 31 passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issue-scheduled-retry-routes.test.ts` — exited 0,
but this host skipped the embedded Postgres route tests with: `Postgres
init script exited with code null. Please check the logs for extra info.
The data directory might already exist.`
- Pairwise merge check against the assigned-backlog PR branch completed
without conflicts via `git merge --no-commit --no-ff` in a temporary
worktree.
### Visual verification screenshots
Storybook story: `Product/Issue Scheduled retry surfaces /
ScheduledRetrySurfaces`.
## Risks
- Medium: this touches issue execution/retry behavior, so CI should run
the embedded Postgres route tests on a host that can initialize
Postgres.
- Low-to-medium UI risk around duplicated retry-now entry points; both
surfaces share one mutation hook to keep behavior consistent.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - The issue thread is the operator's durable audit trail for what
changed and why
> - Workspace changes and stale disposition notices need to be visible
in that same timeline without noisy or misleading rendering
> - The local branch already contained backend activity details,
timeline conversion, and UI rendering work for those events
> - This pull request isolates the issue-thread activity work into a
standalone branch against `origin/master`
> - The benefit is a focused audit-trail PR that can merge independently
of the sidebar/operator UI polish branch
## What Changed
- Adds readable workspace-change activity details to issue update
activity events.
- Surfaces workspace-change events in issue chat/timeline rendering.
- Makes the existing issue comment migration idempotent.
- Folds and renders stale disposition notices inline so they match
activity-log styling and spacing.
- Adds focused route, timeline, and issue-thread system notice coverage.
## Verification
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issue-activity-events-routes.test.ts
ui/src/lib/issue-timeline-events.test.ts
ui/src/components/IssueChatThreadSystemNotice.test.tsx` — 3 files
passed, 22 tests passed.
- Confirmed the PR changes 9 files and does not include `pnpm-lock.yaml`
or `.github/workflows/*`.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issue-closed-workspace-routes.test.ts` — 1 file
passed, 4 tests passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run

packages/shared/src/validators/issue.test.ts` — 5 files passed, 54 tests
passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck && pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/server typecheck && pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui
typecheck`.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` after adding the Storybook
screenshot fixture.
- Captured Storybook screenshots for the new UI rendering paths:
- Collapsed stale notice + workspace-change row:
`docs/pr-screenshots/pr-5356/issue-thread-notices-collapsed.png`
- Expanded stale notice details:
`docs/pr-screenshots/pr-5356/issue-thread-notices-expanded.png`

## Risks
- Moderate risk: this touches issue activity serialization and
issue-thread rendering, both of which are central operator surfaces.
- Migration risk is low: the only migration change makes an existing
migration idempotent.
- No new migrations are introduced, so there is no cross-PR migration
ordering requirement.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is a control plane operators use repeatedly to supervise
agent companies.
> - Common operator workflows depend on fast scanning of inboxes, issue
sidebars, workspaces, cost totals, and runtime services.
> - Several small UI and service gaps made those workflows slower or
less clear.
> - This pull request groups the operator-facing QoL changes that can
stand alone from recovery and adapter work.
> - The benefit is a denser, clearer board experience for issue triage
and workspace operation.
## What Changed
- Added inbox assignee/project grouping and issue list token/runtime
totals.
- Improved issue properties with removable blocker chips and workspace
task links.
- Improved execution workspace layout, runtime controls, issues tab
default, and stopped-port reuse behavior.
- Added mobile markdown/routine dialog fixes, page title company names,
sidebar polish, and dashboard run task label cleanup.
## Verification
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/lib/inbox.test.ts
ui/src/components/IssueProperties.test.tsx
ui/src/components/WorkspaceRuntimeControls.test.tsx
server/src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/costs-service.test.ts`
## Risks
- Medium UI risk because this touches several operator surfaces. The
branch is intentionally grouped around workflow/QoL files and keeps the
file count below the Greptile limit.
## Model Used
- OpenAI GPT-5 Codex via Paperclip `codex_local` adapter, with
shell/git/GitHub CLI tool use.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the control plane for autonomous AI companies.
> - Routines are the scheduled/recurring work surface that keeps a
company operating without manual kicks.
> - Operators need routine edits to be auditable and recoverable,
especially when routines control assignments, prompts, triggers, and
webhook secrets.
> - Documents already have revision-style safety, but routines did not
have equivalent history or restore semantics.
> - This pull request adds append-only routine revisions across the
database, shared contracts, server routes, and board UI.
> - The benefit is safer routine iteration: users can inspect history,
compare changes, restore older definitions, and avoid overwriting newer
edits.
## What Changed
- Added `routine_revisions` storage, latest revision pointers on
routines, shared types, validators, and API docs for routine revision
history.
- Added server service/route support for listing routine revisions,
conflict-aware routine saves, and append-only restore operations.
- Added a History tab on routine detail with revision preview,
structured change summaries, description line diffs, dirty-edit
blocking, restore confirmation, and restored webhook secret surfacing.
- Extracted the line diff helper from `DocumentDiffModal` into
`ui/src/lib/line-diff.ts` for reuse.
- Rebased the branch onto current `public-gh/master` and renumbered the
routine revision migration to `0077_unusual_karnak` after upstream
`0076_useful_elektra`.
- Made the `0077` routine revision migration idempotent so installs that
already applied the branch-local `0076_unusual_karnak` can safely
advance.
- Updated the plugin SDK test harness routine fixture with the new
revision fields required by the shared `Routine` contract.
## Verification
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db run check:migrations` passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/shared
packages/shared/src/validators/routine.test.ts` passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/ui
ui/src/lib/line-diff.test.ts
ui/src/components/RoutineHistoryTab.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/workspace-routines.test.ts ui/src/pages/Routines.test.tsx`
passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/server
server/src/__tests__/routines-service.test.ts --pool=forks
--poolOptions.forks.isolate=true` passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/server
server/src/__tests__/routines-routes.test.ts --pool=forks
--poolOptions.forks.isolate=true` passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/plugin-sdk typecheck` passed after
updating the SDK test harness fixture.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/plugin-sdk build` passed; this refreshed
local generated SDK output needed by plugin example typechecks.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed.
## Risks
- Medium migration risk: this adds routine revision storage and
backfills existing routines. The migration is ordered after upstream
`0076` and uses `IF NOT EXISTS` / duplicate-object guards to tolerate
earlier branch-local migration application.
- Restore behavior intentionally appends a new revision instead of
mutating history; callers expecting an in-place rollback need to follow
the new latest revision pointer.
- Restoring webhook triggers recreates webhook secret material, so users
must copy newly surfaced secrets after restore.
- Conflict-aware saves now reject stale routine edits when the client
sends an older `baseRevisionId`.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is a control plane for autonomous AI companies where work
must stay observable, governable, and recoverable.
> - The task/heartbeat subsystem owns agent execution continuity, issue
state transitions, and visible recovery behavior.
> - Waiting on an external service is not the same as being blocked when
the assignee still owns a future check.
> - The gap was that agents had no first-class one-shot monitor state
for external-service waits, so recovery could look stalled or require ad
hoc comments.
> - This pull request adds bounded issue monitors that can wake the
owner, clear exhausted waits, and produce explicit recovery behavior.
> - It also surfaces monitor status in the board UI and documents when
to use monitors versus `blocked`.
> - The benefit is clearer liveness semantics for asynchronous waits
without weakening single-assignee task ownership.
## What Changed
- Added issue monitor fields, shared types, validators, constants, and
an idempotent `0075` migration for scheduled monitor state.
- Added server-side monitor scheduling, dispatch, recovery bounds,
activity logging, and external-ref redaction.
- Added board/agent route coverage for monitor permissions and child
monitor scheduling.
- Added issue detail/property UI for monitor state, a monitor activity
card, and Storybook stories for review surfaces.
- Documented monitor semantics and recovery policy behavior in
`doc/execution-semantics.md`.
- Addressed Greptile review feedback by preserving monitor state in
skipped-stage builders and making board monitor saves send `scheduledBy:
"board"`.
## Verification
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`
- `pnpm run preflight:workspace-links && pnpm exec vitest run

ui/src/components/IssueProperties.test.tsx

- First run passed 5 files and failed to collect 2 server suites because
the worktree was missing the optional `acpx/runtime` dependency.
- After `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`, reran the 2 failed suites
successfully.

- Storybook screenshot captured from
`http://127.0.0.1:6006/iframe.html?viewMode=story&id=product-issue-monitor-surfaces--monitor-surfaces`
with Playwright.
## Screenshots
## Risks
- Medium: this changes heartbeat recovery behavior for scheduled
external-service waits, so regressions could affect wake timing or
recovery issue creation.
- Migration risk is reduced by using `IF NOT EXISTS` for the new issue
monitor columns and index.
- External monitor references are treated as secret-adjacent and are
intentionally omitted from visible activity/wake payloads.

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI-agent companies through a control plane
that can start, supervise, and recover agent runs.
> - Local adapters are the bridge between Paperclip issues and concrete
agent runtimes such as Claude, Codex, and other ACP-compatible tools.
> - The roadmap calls out broader “bring your own agent” and claw-style
agent support, and ACPX gives Paperclip one path to normalize multiple
ACP agents behind a single adapter.
> - The branch needed to become one reviewable PR against current
`paperclipai/paperclip:master`, without carrying stale base conflicts or
generated lockfile churn.
> - This pull request adds an experimental built-in `acpx_local`
adapter, integrates it through the server/CLI/UI adapter surfaces, and
adds regression coverage for runtime execution, skill sync, stream
parsing, diagnostics, and log redaction.
> - The benefit is that Paperclip can run Claude/Codex/custom ACP agents
through ACPX while keeping operator configuration, skills, logging, and
transcript rendering inside the existing adapter model.
## What Changed
- Added `@paperclipai/adapter-acpx-local` with server execution, config
schema, ACPX session handling, CLI formatting, UI config helpers, and
stdout parsing.
- Registered `acpx_local` across CLI, server, shared constants, UI
adapter metadata, adapter capabilities, and agent creation/editing
surfaces.
- Added ACPX runtime execution support with persistent sessions,
local-agent JWT environment handling, skill snapshots, runtime skill
materialization, and isolation/security regressions.
- Added ACPX adapter diagnostics and marked the adapter experimental in
the UI.
- Added command/env secret redaction for resolved command metadata in
adapter-utils, server event storage, and the Agent Detail invocation UI.
- Added Storybook coverage for ACPX config, transcript rendering, and
skill states, plus PR screenshots under `docs/pr-screenshots/pap-2944/`.
- Rebased the branch onto current `public-gh/master`; `pnpm-lock.yaml`
is intentionally not included and there are no migration/schema changes.

Screenshots:
## Risks
- Medium risk: this introduces a new built-in adapter package and
touches runtime execution, adapter registration, agent config, skills,
and transcript rendering.
- ACPX and ACP agent behavior can vary by installed tool versions; the
adapter is marked experimental to set operator expectations.
- `pnpm-lock.yaml` is excluded per repository PR policy, so dependency
lock refresh must be handled by the repo’s automation or maintainers.
- No database migration risk: no schema or migration files changed.

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is a control plane for autonomous AI companies, where
adapters are the boundary between the board, agents, and execution
runtimes.
> - Local adapters currently expose a primary runtime configuration, but
operators often need a cheaper model lane for routine or low-risk work.
> - That cheap lane has to stay adapter-owned: runtime profile settings
should not mutate the primary adapter config or bypass existing
auth/secret mediation.
> - Issue creation also needs an ergonomic way to request primary,
cheap, or custom model behavior for a selected assignee.
> - This pull request adds a first-class `cheap` model profile contract
across adapter capabilities, heartbeat config resolution, agent
configuration, and issue creation.
> - The benefit is cheaper task execution can be configured and
requested explicitly while preserving adapter boundaries, secret
handling, and audit visibility.
## What Changed
- Added adapter model-profile capability metadata and a `cheap` profile
contract for supported local adapters.
- Applied `runtimeConfig.modelProfiles.cheap.adapterConfig` during
heartbeat config resolution, including requested/applied/fallback run
metadata.
- Added agent configuration UI for cheap model profile settings without
writing those settings into primary `adapterConfig`.
- Added New Issue assignee model lane controls for Primary / Cheap /
Custom and request payload handling.
- Added run ledger profile badges and Storybook stories for the new
cheap-lane UI states.
- Added tests for validators, heartbeat model profile application,
permission/secret mediation, UI payload helpers, and run ledger
rendering.
- Added committed UI verification screenshots under
`docs/pr-screenshots/pap-2837/`.
- Addressed Greptile review feedback around cheap-profile defaults,
shared profile types, and fallback test data.
## Verification

- Mobile variants are also in `docs/pr-screenshots/pap-2837/`.
## Risks
- Medium: heartbeat config mediation now merges runtime model profiles
into adapter configs, so adapter secret normalization and host-command
restrictions must keep covering nested config paths.
- Medium: the UI adds another issue creation choice; unsupported
adapters must keep hiding the cheap lane and preserve primary behavior.
- Low migration risk: no database migration is included.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip operators need fast control over the agents running their
company.
> - The sidebar is the persistent place operators scan agent state while
navigating the board UI.
> - Agent pause and resume already exist as control-plane actions, but
sidebar users had to navigate away to use them.
> - This pull request adds a compact per-agent action menu in the
sidebar.
> - It keeps edit, pause, and resume close to the visible agent list
while preserving existing navigation behavior.
> - The benefit is faster operator intervention when an agent needs to
be paused or restarted.
## What Changed
- Refactored sidebar agent rows into a small item component with a
hover/focus action menu.
- Added edit, pause, and resume actions using existing agent API calls
and cache invalidation keys.
- Added success/error toasts for pause and resume mutations.
- Tracked pause/resume pending state per agent so one active mutation
does not disable every sidebar row.
- Disabled direct sidebar resume for budget-paused agents and labeled
that state clearly.
- Added jsdom coverage for active-agent pause, paused-agent resume,
per-agent pending state, and budget-paused resume protection.
- Added visual review artifacts for the default row and opened action
menu:
- [Sidebar row](docs/pr-screenshots/pr-4616/sidebar-agent-row.png)
- [Sidebar action
menu](docs/pr-screenshots/pr-4616/sidebar-agent-actions.png)
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/components/SidebarAgents.test.tsx`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server prepare:ui-dist`
- Browser screenshot pass against a temporary local trusted instance at
`http://127.0.0.1:3102` using Playwright.
## Risks
- Low risk: UI-only addition using existing agent pause/resume
endpoints. The main risk is layout crowding for very narrow sidebars,
mitigated by the icon-only trigger and existing truncation.
- Budget-paused agents now require a non-sidebar path to resume, which
is intentional to avoid accidentally restarting agents stopped by budget
enforcement.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - The control plane must recover stranded agent work without creating
new operational loops
> - Stranded recovery issues can themselves fail, and exposing raw retry
errors in comments can leak sensitive adapter details
> - New local companies also should not force a hire-approval gate
unless operators enable that policy
> - This pull request hardens recovery issue handling, redacts retry
failure details in issue copy, preserves `maxConcurrentRuns: 1`, and
flips new-hire approval to an opt-in default
> - The benefit is safer automatic recovery and smoother default company
setup without hidden migration conflicts
## What Changed
- Added migration `0071_default_hire_approval_off` and updated company
schema/import/export/docs so hire approvals default off and serialize
only when enabled.
- Added migration `0072_large_sandman` with a partial unique index
preventing duplicate active stranded recovery issues for the same source
issue.
- Blocked failed `stranded_issue_recovery` issues in place instead of
creating nested recovery issues.
- Redacted latest retry failure details from recovery issue comments
while still linking reviewers to run evidence.
- Allowed `maxConcurrentRuns: 1` to be honored by heartbeat concurrency
normalization.
- Added focused regression coverage for recovery recursion, redaction,
migration ordering, and concurrency behavior.
## Verification
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db run check:migrations`
- `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/server
server/src/__tests__/recovery-classifiers.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/server
server/src/__tests__/company-portability.test.ts --pool=forks
--poolOptions.forks.isolate=true`
- `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/server
server/src/__tests__/agent-permissions-routes.test.ts --pool=forks
--poolOptions.forks.isolate=true`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/server
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts --pool=forks
--poolOptions.forks.isolate=true` exits 0, but this host skipped the
embedded Postgres tests with the existing init guard.
- `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/server
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-dependency-scheduling.test.ts
--pool=forks --poolOptions.forks.isolate=true` exits 0, but this host
skipped the embedded Postgres tests with the existing init guard.
## Risks
- Migration risk is low but this PR intentionally owns both new
migrations to avoid separate PR migration-journal conflicts.
- Recovery comments now require operators to inspect linked run evidence
for details instead of reading raw errors inline.
- The hire approval default changes behavior for newly created/imported
companies only; existing persisted company settings are not changed
except by the SQL default for future rows.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies and ships
a
> "local-first, cloud-ready" deployment model
> - The deploy docs currently cover local/Docker but not a production
> cloud target, so teams asking "how do I put this behind a real domain"
> have no canonical path
> - We already support Docker images, RDS-compatible Postgres, and an
EFS
> storage profile, so AWS ECS Fargate is a natural fit
> - Without a runbook, each team reinvents VPC, security groups, TLS,
and
> secrets wiring and usually gets at least one step wrong
> - This pull request adds `docs/deploy/aws-ecs.md`, an ECS
task-definition
> template, and an `.env.aws.example`, cross-linked from the deploy
overview
> - The benefit is a single, reproducible ~$110/mo path to a production
> deployment, plus a full teardown for throwaway environments
## What Changed
- New `docs/deploy/aws-ecs.md` — an 11-step ECS Fargate runbook covering
ECR,
VPC, RDS, EFS, Secrets Manager, IAM, ALB, and ECS service with the
deployment circuit breaker enabled
- New `docker/ecs-task-definition.json` — Fargate-ready task definition
with
`<ACCOUNT_ID>`, `<REGION>`, `<EFS_ID>`, `<DOMAIN>` placeholder tokens
- New `docker/.env.aws.example` — documents every non-secret env var the
ECS deployment needs
- `docs/deploy/overview.md` — one-line cross-reference to the new guide
- Greptile feedback addressed in follow-up commits:
- `containerName` in the service-create call now matches
`paperclip-server` in the task definition
- HTTP :80 listener added that 301-redirects to :443
- Dedicated RDS DB subnet group created before `create-db-instance`
- EFS teardown polls on mount-target deletion instead of `sleep 30`
## Verification
- Walked every step of the runbook against the task definition to
confirm
variable names (`$ALB_SG`, `$ECS_SG`, `$RDS_SG`, `$EFS_SG`, `$TG_ARN`,
`$LISTENER_ARN`, `$HTTP_LISTENER_ARN`, `$EFS_ID`, `$RDS_ENDPOINT`, etc.)
are
defined before they are referenced
- Confirmed the `containerName` in Step 10 (`paperclip-server`) matches
`docker/ecs-task-definition.json` line 11
- Confirmed the `sed` placeholder substitution in Step 8 matches the
tokens
in the task definition template
- Teardown order was checked in reverse-dependency order: ECS service →
listeners → target group → ALB → RDS (waits for deletion) → DB subnet
group → EFS mount targets (polled) → EFS → secrets → SGs → ECR → IAM →
log group
## Risks
- **Low risk for the repo.** Docs-only change plus two template files
under
`docker/`; no runtime code paths are touched and nothing is imported by
the build.
- **Risk for users who follow the runbook:** AWS bills accrue
immediately
once RDS/ALB/EFS exist. The runbook calls this out and includes a full
teardown procedure. Placeholder tokens (`<ACCOUNT_ID>`, `<REGION>`,
`<EFS_ID>`, `<DOMAIN>`) are documented so nothing is silently
hard-coded.
## Model Used
- Claude (Anthropic), model `claude-opus-4-6`, ~200K context window,
extended thinking mode on, used with tool access (file edit, shell) via
Claude Code. The Greptile follow-up commits were authored the same way.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies.
> - Operators supervise that work through issues, comments, approvals,
and the board UI.
> - Some agent proposals need structured board/user decisions, not
hidden markdown conventions or heavyweight governed approvals.
> - Issue-thread interactions already provide a natural thread-native
surface for proposed tasks and questions.
> - This pull request extends that surface with request confirmations,
richer interaction cards, and agent/plugin/MCP helpers.
> - The benefit is that plan approvals and yes/no decisions become
explicit, auditable, and resumable without losing the single-issue
workflow.
## What Changed
- Added persisted issue-thread interactions for suggested tasks,
structured questions, and request confirmations.
- Added board UI cards for interaction review, selection, question
answers, and accept/reject confirmation flows.
- Added MCP and plugin SDK helpers for creating interaction cards from
agents/plugins.
- Updated agent wake instructions, onboarding assets, Paperclip skill
docs, and public docs to prefer structured confirmations for
issue-scoped decisions.
- Rebased the branch onto `public-gh/master` and renumbered branch
migrations to `0063` and `0064`; the idempotency migration uses `ADD
COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS` for old branch users.
## Verification
- `git diff --check public-gh/master..HEAD`
- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/adapter-utils/src/server-utils.test.ts
packages/mcp-server/src/tools.test.ts
packages/shared/src/issue-thread-interactions.test.ts

server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interaction-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interactions-service.test.ts
server/src/services/issue-thread-interactions.test.ts` -> 9 files / 79
tests passed
- `pnpm -r typecheck` -> passed, including `packages/db` migration
numbering check
## Risks
- Medium: this adds a new issue-thread interaction model across
db/shared/server/ui/plugin surfaces.
- Migration risk is reduced by placing this branch after current master
migrations (`0063`, `0064`) and making the idempotency column add
idempotent for users who applied the old branch numbering.
- UI interaction behavior is covered by component tests, but this PR
does not include browser screenshots.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies.
> - Heartbeat runs are the control-plane record of each agent execution
window.
> - Long-running local agents can exhaust context or stop while still
holding useful next-step state.
> - Operators need that stop reason, next action, and continuation path
to be durable and visible.
> - This pull request adds run liveness metadata, continuation
summaries, and UI surfaces for issue run ledgers.
> - The benefit is that interrupted or long-running work can resume with
clearer context instead of losing the agent's last useful handoff.
## What Changed
- Added heartbeat-run liveness fields, continuation attempt tracking,
and an idempotent `0058` migration.
- Added server services and tests for run liveness, continuation
summaries, stop metadata, and activity backfill.
- Wired local and HTTP adapters to surface continuation/liveness context
through shared adapter utilities.
- Added shared constants, validators, and heartbeat types for liveness
continuation state.
- Added issue-detail UI surfaces for continuation handoffs and the run
ledger, with component tests.
- Updated agent runtime docs, heartbeat protocol docs, prompt guidance,
onboarding assets, and skills instructions to explain continuation
behavior.
- Addressed Greptile feedback by scoping document evidence by run,
excluding system continuation-summary documents from liveness evidence,
importing shared liveness types, surfacing hidden ledger run counts,
documenting bounded retry behavior, and moving run-ledger liveness
backfill off the request path.
## Verification

- Remote PR checks on head `e53b1a1d`: `verify`, `e2e`, `policy`, and
Snyk all passed.
- Confirmed `public-gh/master` is an ancestor of this branch after
fetching `public-gh master`.
- Confirmed `pnpm-lock.yaml` is not included in the branch diff.
- Confirmed migration `0058_wealthy_starbolt.sql` is ordered after
`0057` and uses `IF NOT EXISTS` guards for repeat application.
- Greptile inline review threads are resolved.
## Risks
- Medium risk: this touches heartbeat execution, liveness recovery,
activity rendering, issue routes, shared contracts, docs, and UI.
- Migration risk is mitigated by additive columns/indexes and idempotent
guards.
- Run-ledger liveness backfill is now asynchronous, so the first ledger
response can briefly show historical missing liveness until the
background backfill completes.
- UI screenshot coverage is not included in this packaging pass;
validation is currently through focused component tests.

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the control plane for autonomous AI companies.
> - V1 needs to stay local-first while also supporting shared,
authenticated deployments.
> - Human operators need real identities, company membership, invite
flows, profile surfaces, and company-scoped access controls.
> - Agents and operators also need the existing issue, inbox, workspace,
approval, and plugin flows to keep working under those authenticated
boundaries.
> - This branch accumulated the multi-user implementation, follow-up QA
fixes, workspace/runtime refinements, invite UX improvements,
release-branch conflict resolution, and review hardening.
> - This pull request consolidates that branch onto the current `master`
branch as a single reviewable PR.
> - The benefit is a complete multi-user implementation path with tests
and docs carried forward without dropping existing branch work.
## What Changed
- Added authenticated human-user access surfaces: auth/session routes,
company user directory, profile settings, company access/member
management, join requests, and invite management.
- Added invite creation, invite landing, onboarding, logo/branding,
invite grants, deduped join requests, and authenticated multi-user E2E
coverage.
- Tightened company-scoped and instance-admin authorization across
board, plugin, adapter, access, issue, and workspace routes.
- Added profile-image URL validation hardening, avatar preservation on
name-only profile updates, and join-request uniqueness migration cleanup
for pending human requests.
- Added an atomic member role/status/grants update path so Company
Access saves no longer leave partially updated permissions.
- Improved issue chat, inbox, assignee identity rendering,
sidebar/account/company navigation, workspace routing, and execution
workspace reuse behavior for multi-user operation.
- Added and updated server/UI tests covering auth, invites, membership,
issue workspace inheritance, plugin authz, inbox/chat behavior, and
multi-user flows.
- Merged current `public-gh/master` into this branch, resolved all
conflicts, and verified no `pnpm-lock.yaml` change is included in this
PR diff.
## Verification

- Confirmed branch has no uncommitted changes and is `0` commits behind
`public-gh/master` before PR creation.
- Confirmed no `pnpm-lock.yaml` change is staged or present in the PR
diff.
## Risks
- High review surface area: this PR contains the accumulated multi-user
branch plus follow-up fixes, so reviewers should focus especially on
company-boundary enforcement and authenticated-vs-local deployment
behavior.
- UI behavior changed across invites, inbox, issue chat, access
settings, and sidebar navigation; no browser screenshots are included in
this branch-consolidation PR.
- Plugin install, upgrade, and lifecycle/config mutations now require
instance-admin access, which is intentional but may change expectations
for non-admin board users.
- A join-request dedupe migration rejects duplicate pending human
requests before creating unique indexes; deployments with unusual
historical duplicates should review the migration behavior.
- Company member role/status/grant saves now use a new combined
endpoint; older separate endpoints remain for compatibility.
- Full production build was not run locally in this heartbeat; CI should
cover the full matrix.
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex coding agent, GPT-5-based model, CLI/tool-use
environment. Exact deployed model identifier and context window were not
exposed by the runtime.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents via adapters (`claude_local`,
`codex_local`, etc.)
> - Each adapter type has different capabilities — instructions bundles,
skill materialization, local JWT — but these were gated by 5 hardcoded
type lists scattered across server routes and UI components
> - External adapter plugins (e.g. a future `opencode_k8s`) cannot add
themselves to those hardcoded lists without patching Paperclip source
> - The existing `supportsLocalAgentJwt` field on `ServerAdapterModule`
proves the right pattern already exists; it just wasn't applied to the
other capability gates
> - This pull request replaces the 4 remaining hardcoded lists with
declarative capability flags on `ServerAdapterModule`, exposed through
the adapter listing API
> - The benefit is that external adapter plugins can now declare their
own capabilities without any changes to Paperclip source code
## What Changed
- **`packages/adapter-utils/src/types.ts`** — added optional capability
fields to `ServerAdapterModule`: `supportsInstructionsBundle`,
`instructionsPathKey`, `requiresMaterializedRuntimeSkills`
- **`server/src/routes/agents.ts`** — replaced
`DEFAULT_MANAGED_INSTRUCTIONS_ADAPTER_TYPES` and
`ADAPTERS_REQUIRING_MATERIALIZED_RUNTIME_SKILLS` hardcoded sets with
capability-aware helper functions that fall back to the legacy sets for
adapters that don't set flags
- **`server/src/routes/adapters.ts`** — `GET /api/adapters` now includes
a `capabilities` object per adapter (all four flags + derived
`supportsSkills`)
- **`server/src/adapters/registry.ts`** — all built-in adapters
(`claude_local`, `codex_local`, `process`, `cursor`) now declare flags
explicitly
- **`ui/src/adapters/use-adapter-capabilities.ts`** — new hook that
fetches adapter capabilities from the API
- **`ui/src/pages/AgentDetail.tsx`** — replaced hardcoded `isLocal`
allowlist with `capabilities.supportsInstructionsBundle` from the API
- **`ui/src/components/AgentConfigForm.tsx`** /
**`OnboardingWizard.tsx`** — replaced `NONLOCAL_TYPES` denylist with
capability-based checks
- **`server/src/__tests__/adapter-registry.test.ts`** /
**`adapter-routes.test.ts`** — tests covering flag exposure,
undefined-when-unset, and per-adapter values
- **`docs/adapters/creating-an-adapter.md`** — new "Capability Flags"
section documenting all flags and an example for external plugin authors
## Verification
- Run `pnpm test --filter=@paperclip/server -- adapter-registry
adapter-routes` — all new tests pass
- Run `pnpm test --filter=@paperclip/adapter-utils` — existing tests
still pass
- Spin up dev server, open an agent with `claude_local` type —
instructions bundle tab still visible
- Create/open an agent with a non-local type — instructions bundle tab
still hidden
- Call `GET /api/adapters` and verify each adapter includes a
`capabilities` object with the correct flags
## Risks
- **Low risk overall** — all new flags are optional with
backwards-compatible fallbacks to the existing hardcoded sets; no
adapter behaviour changes unless a flag is explicitly set
- Adapters that do not declare flags continue to use the legacy lists,
so there is no regression risk for built-in adapters
- The UI capability hook adds one API call to AgentDetail mount; this is
a pre-existing endpoint, so no new latency path is introduced
## Model Used
- Provider: Anthropic
- Model: Claude Sonnet 4.6 (`claude-sonnet-4-6`)
- Context: 200k token context window
- Mode: Agentic tool use (code editing, bash, grep, file reads)

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip server starts up and sets internal `PAPERCLIP_API_URL` for
downstream services and adapters
> - The server startup code was unconditionally overwriting
`PAPERCLIP_API_URL` with `http://localhost:3100` (or equivalent based on
`config.host`)
> - In Kubernetes deployments, `PAPERCLIP_API_URL` is set via a
ConfigMap to the externally accessible load balancer URL (e.g.
`https://paperclip.example.com`)
> - Because the env var was unconditionally set after loading the
ConfigMap value, the ConfigMap-provided URL was ignored and replaced
with the internal localhost address
> - This caused downstream services (adapter env building) to use the
wrong URL, breaking external access
> - This pull request makes the assignment conditional — only set if not
already provided by the environment
> - External deployments can now supply `PAPERCLIP_API_URL` and it will
be respected; local development continues to work without setting it
## What Changed
- `server/src/index.ts`: Wrapped `PAPERCLIP_API_URL` assignment in `if
(!process.env.PAPERCLIP_API_URL)` guard so externally provided values
are preserved
- `server/src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts`: Added
tests verifying external `PAPERCLIP_API_URL` is respected and fallback
behavior is correct
- `docs/deploy/environment-variables.md`: Updated `PAPERCLIP_API_URL`
description to clarify it can be externally provided and the load
balancer/reverse proxy use case
## Verification
- Run the existing test suite: `pnpm test:run
server/src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts` — all 3
tests pass
- Manual verification: Set `PAPERCLIP_API_URL` to a custom value before
starting the server and confirm it is not overwritten
## Risks
- Low risk — purely additive conditional check; existing behavior for
unset env var is unchanged
## Model Used
MiniMax M2.7 — reasoning-assisted for tracing the root cause through the
startup chain (`buildPaperclipEnv` → `startServer` → `config.host` →
`HOST` env var)

## 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
