## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**Problem or motivation**
Agents need dedicated email addresses. Incoming email should become
assigned work. Internal task comments and progress must never become
outgoing email by accident.
**Proposed solution**
Add experimental AgentMail connections, an inbox assignment wizard,
durable email intake and publication, task email cards, and
authenticated API, CLI, and native runtime actions. Agents use Paperclip
credentials to request sends. Paperclip owns the provider key and
enforces access and task authority.
**Alternatives considered**
A general mailbox MCP connector does not provide durable task binding or
publication boundaries. A separate mailbox application duplicates task
collaboration. The board instead directs the agent through the normal
task conversation.
**Roadmap alignment**
This extends the existing experimental connections and task
infrastructure. Product scope and interaction design were reviewed with
the maintainer. Related connection authority work: #11831 and #11818.
The duplicate search found no competing task-based AgentMail
integration.
## What Changed
- Add AgentMail catalog data, shared contracts, company-scoped email
records, and an additive migration.
- Add vaulted setup, inbox assignment, access grants, trust guidance,
and provider-side allowlist guidance.
- Support WebSocket and signed-webhook intake through a shared durable
pipeline, deduplication, catch-up, and task wakeups.
- Queue explicit new conversations and replies with immutable send
intents, idempotency, delivery state, and uncertain-send resolution.
- Show inbound and outbound email cards in normal task conversations.
Keep internal messages internal.
- Add task-scoped CLI actions and the sandbox callback routes required
for Daytona execution.
- Provide a dedicated AgentMail skill automatically only to agents with
active authorized inbox assignments. Keep email instructions out of the
universal Paperclip skill.
- Advertise connector-owned `agentmail_inboxes`,
`agentmail_read_thread`, `agentmail_send`, and `agentmail_delivery`
tools only in eligible native sessions. Recheck live authority on
execution.
- Isolate Codex CLI connector skills by agent and skill revision.
Deliver the assigned skill in the run prompt for adapters that use
shared skill directories, including resumed turns. Keep automatic skills
out of manual persistent sync. Show them as read-only and document the
pattern in the connector playbook.
- Fix AgentMail health checks that entered local-stdio validation and
optional missing Codex credential cleanup in sandboxes.
- Add API, pipeline, authorization, sandbox, browser, and Storybook
coverage.
## Verification
- Live AgentMail testing covered WebSocket intake, signed webhooks,
restart catch-up, and a full receive → task → Daytona Codex CLI →
explicit reply → Delivered round trip. The reply was verified in the
other inbox. The normal task composer also initiated an outgoing email
child task.
- The connector-skill change was verified in the browser: AgentMail
appears once as an automatic, read-only skill with its assigned address.
Disabling experimental chat connections removes it; re-enabling restores
it. A regression test covers assignment data arriving after library
data.
- Connector regression coverage passed 178 runtime utility, email
integration, skill-route, and heartbeat tests. All 17 Codex execution
tests passed, including per-agent skill isolation, model identity,
revision changes, removal, and prompt delivery without shared skill
files.
- After rebasing onto master, all 44 focused email, heartbeat, and
native-authority tests passed. All 313 native-session executor tests
passed. The UI regression suite passed all 3 tests. These test sets
overlap earlier focused runs.
- Full workspace typecheck and build passed after the rebase. Token
gates passed. Earlier focused Playwright task/setup coverage and the
Storybook build also passed.
- Native connector tool execution uses deterministic integration tests.
Live Daytona qualification used the Codex CLI adapter; the new
shared-home prompt fallback has deterministic coverage.
- The full repository suite is run by CI. The earlier unsharded local
full-suite attempt was stopped after the equivalent CI suites passed and
is not reported as a completed local run. Greptile reviewed
`7e57dc267a8446d3c906e3cc5b8abc94fb8860eb` at 5/5 with no unresolved
threads. All server, workspace, serialized server, and browser suites
passed in CI. The build job hit a five-second timeout in a runner
transport test; both variants and the full 80-test file passed locally
with unchanged timeouts. The build passed on retry on the same commit
without code or timeout changes. All required CI gates, including the
final `ci / verify` and `ci / e2e` summaries, are green on
`7e57dc267a8446d3c906e3cc5b8abc94fb8860eb`.
## Risks
- Email from external senders can start normal agent work. Setup
recommends a low-trust agent and AgentMail sender controls. Sender
addresses never grant board membership.
- Provider timeouts can leave uncertain sends. Retries retain their
idempotency key; expired windows require reconciliation or operator
resolution.
- Connector skills and native tools are assignment-dependent and require
current access. Revocation denies retained calls; assignment changes
select a new runtime context.
- Activation remains behind the experimental-channel setting. The native
runner path has deterministic coverage; live Daytona qualification used
the Codex CLI adapter.
- Schema changes are additive. Inbox ownership is unique across
companies. Disconnect preserves provider inboxes and task history.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The CLI provides a test-drive command for a ready local test
instance.
> - That command must accept a provider credential before it creates the
first agent.
> - The command did not accept a literal key and could lose an exported
key during server startup.
> - This pull request accepts both credential paths and captures the CLI
environment before startup.
> - The benefit is a reliable one-command test drive from an existing
shell.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #12894
**What happened?**
`paperclipai test-drive --api-key <value>` failed because the option did
not exist. An exported canonical provider variable could also become
unavailable before the post-listen bootstrap read it.
**Expected behavior**
The command must accept a literal key when the operator requests it. The
command must also use a provider variable that was present when the CLI
started.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Export `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` in the shell.
2. Run `pnpm paperclipai test-drive`.
3. Observe that bootstrap can report that no credential exists.
4. Run `pnpm paperclipai test-drive --api-key test-value`.
5. Observe that Commander reports an unknown option on the prior
implementation.
**Paperclip version or commit**
The problem exists on `master` after #12894.
**Deployment mode**
Local development with `pnpm` and the embedded database.
## What Changed
- Add the `--api-key <value>` test-drive option.
- Keep `--api-key` and `--api-key-env` mutually exclusive.
- Capture provider variables before in-process server startup changes
the process environment.
- Redact literal and environment-backed credentials from Paperclip
errors, including custom environment-variable names with surrounding
whitespace.
- Scrub split and joined literal-key forms from the JavaScript
`process.argv` view before telemetry, diagnostics, API work, or server
startup.
- Warn about process argument and shell history exposure without
printing the key.
- Add tests for literal keys, option conflicts, environment snapshots,
argv handling, and error redaction.
- Update the CLI and development documentation, including the remaining
external argv exposure tradeoff.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run cli/src/__tests__/test-drive.test.ts` passed 32
tests.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed.
- `pnpm build` passed.
- A live literal-key smoke test created one company and one CEO agent
without a provider call.
- A live exported-variable smoke test created the same clean instance
without credential flags.
- `pnpm test:run` completed locally with 5,870 passing tests and 19
host-dependent failures in six unrelated suites. The failures came from
macOS `/tmp` aliases, exhausted test ports, and existing
workspace-runtime fixture assumptions.
- GitHub CI passed the full build, typecheck, canary dry run, general
tests, serialized server tests, and e2e matrix on clean Linux runners.
- Greptile rated the exact latest head 5/5, Superagent passed, and all
review threads are resolved.
## Risks
- A raw value passed through `--api-key` can appear in operating-system
process listings, shell history, or parent-wrapper output before
Paperclip can scrub its own JavaScript argv view. The command warns
about this risk and Paperclip does not print the value.
- The environment snapshot contains the process environment only in
memory for the life of the foreground command.
- This change adds no schema migration and no REST endpoint.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The Paperclip Runner provides durable, provider-neutral agent
execution.
> - The current stack supports qualified local providers but omits the
managed provider paths from the integration branch.
> - Claude Managed Agents and AWS AgentCore need explicit profile
qualification, durable recovery, usage accounting, and cleanup controls.
> - This pull request adds those managed backends as the third part of
the Runner parity stack.
> - The benefit is managed execution without weakening the default-off
Runner rollout gate.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**Subsystem affected**
Cross-cutting: Runner, server orchestration, database profiles, CLI, and
adapter configuration UI.
**Problem or motivation**
The current Runner stack cannot select or execute the managed Claude
Agents API or AWS Bedrock AgentCore Harness backends. It also lacks
qualified profile storage and recovery checks for those remote
resources.
**Proposed solution**
Add qualified managed and remote profiles, API and CLI management, exact
provider selection, durable lifecycle handling, cumulative usage
accounting, bounded cleanup, and retention acknowledgement. Keep
`enableNativeRunner` default-off.
**Alternatives considered**
A direct copy of the old integration branch was rejected because its
provider contracts, model values, credential flow, and migration history
no longer match the current base. A single large parity pull request was
also rejected because stacked review keeps each subsystem bounded.
**Roadmap alignment**
This continues the existing Runner architecture and rollout work. It
does not introduce a separate execution system.
**Additional context**
This pull request is based on the merged #12691 and #12685 stack. It
also closes the delayed security-review findings reported on #12691 by
binding qualified ACPX and OpenCode launch artifacts to the bytes
actually executed. A GitHub search for managed agent, AgentCore, and
Claude managed work found no duplicate public issue or pull request.
## What Changed
- Add Claude Managed Agents and AWS AgentCore provider executors to
runnerd.
- Add qualified managed and remote profile storage, routes, OpenAPI
contracts, CLI commands, and migration 0237.
- Validate profile ownership, enabled state, exact qualified revision,
model, agent version, and secret binding before persistence and
recovery.
- Persist durable provider session and owned skill state for
restart-safe cleanup.
- Reconcile uncertain create responses and delete remote sessions before
owned skills.
- Track cumulative provider usage and enforce positive session spend
caps.
- Recover interrupted AgentCore usage at the next turn boundary by
charging the prior invocation ceiling exactly once; keep the session
gated until an explicit monotonic budget raise.
- Isolate AgentCore AWS configuration from host profiles and
credential-process/SSO configuration while preserving workload identity.
- Require OpenCode 1.18.17 and fixed build-owned provider-pack artifact
paths; remove the ambient executable override.
- Snapshot and content-verify ACPX and OpenCode commands, scripts, and
provider executables before launch. Linux executes sealed inherited
descriptors; macOS uses authenticated private snapshots with retry-safe
rematerialization at the spawn boundary.
- Persist canonical ACPX and OpenCode launch-profile digests, reject
drift across fresh recovery, and make recovery failures sticky.
- Close and journal unsafe ACPX active-turn recovery before any provider
bootstrap or reconnect.
- Add managed provider fields to the Runner configuration UI and
permission projection.
- Preserve the default-off `enableNativeRunner` experimental flag.
## Verification
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm build`
- Focused managed server, database, CLI, Runner TypeScript, Rust,
Claude, AgentCore, ACPX, OpenCode, process-supervisor, and
durable-recovery tests passed.
- `cargo test -p paperclip-runner-core --lib --locked` (160 tests)
- `cargo check --workspace --all-targets --locked`
- Native Codex integration tests passed (60 tests); native provider
tests passed (7 tests); server native-runtime tests passed (87 tests).
- Verified-launch replacement, nested-spawn retry, exact-version,
profile-drift, sticky-failure, and no-bootstrap active-recovery tests
passed.
- `git diff --check`
- The PR changes 91 files. `pnpm-lock.yaml` is unchanged. The Rust
workspace lockfile adds the approved `rustix` dependency used for safe
descriptor handling while `#![forbid(unsafe_code)]` remains enabled.
## Risks
- The provider APIs can change while they are in beta. Exact
qualification and fail-closed recovery checks limit drift.
- Remote cleanup can fail after a partial create. Durable ownership
inventories and retry-safe deletion preserve recovery state.
- Migration 0237 adds profile tables. The generated migration and
snapshot pass the repository migration checks.
- Managed execution can incur provider cost. Positive default spend caps
and explicit retention acknowledgement limit accidental use.
- An interrupted AgentCore invocation without final metadata is
conservatively charged to its active session ceiling. This can overstate
cost, but cannot undercount it; later work requires an explicit budget
increase.
- Linux qualified launches use sealed memory descriptors. macOS lacks
executable-descriptor APIs, so the runner uses owner-only private
snapshots and minimizes linked-path lifetime; hostile same-UID processes
remain outside the documented local-host trust boundary.
- The global Runner feature remains default-off.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #11965
This is stack 7 of 11. It depends on stack 6 and replaces another
reviewable part of #11965.
## What Changed
- Add connection intent types, validation, service logic, and routes.
- Add agent runtime tools and CLI support for connection requests.
- Add issue-thread interaction support for connection intents.
- Add runtime, route, adapter, and contract tests.
- Hold the final resolved-continuation row lock through asynchronous
adapter preparation until an actual process spawn, so parking or
reassignment cannot cross that boundary.
- Report Hermes Gateway's first remote run request through the shared
dispatch hook so the resolved-intent lock is released at the true
dispatch boundary.
- Revalidate the addressed user's live non-viewer membership and
connection-management authority for every intent mutation, including
OAuth completion.
## Verification
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts`
- Result: 176 tests passed.
- `pnpm build`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-stale-queue-invalidation.test.ts` (32 passed;
includes non-process dispatch lock-release coverage)
- `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/server
server/src/__tests__/connection-intents-service.test.ts -t
"addressed-user mutation"` (1 passed)
- `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/server
server/src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts -t "binds OAuth
callback completion to the initiating board session"` (1 passed)
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/hermes-paperclip-adapter test --
src/gateway/server/execute.test.ts` (23 passed; includes dispatch-hook
ordering and exactly-once coverage)
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/hermes-paperclip-adapter typecheck`
## Risks
- A malformed intent could create an unusable operator request.
- Validators and company checks reject invalid or cross-company
requests.
- The final continuation gate holds the issue row lock through adapter
preparation until process or remote dispatch; later operator changes use
the normal active-run interruption path.
- The change does not add a database migration.
> I checked `ROADMAP.md`. This stack continues the existing app
connection work from #11965 and does not duplicate another planned item.

## Thinking Path

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

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The release channels (canary → nightly → beta → stable) select by
install target, and users discover them today only through
maintainer-oriented docs
> - A user who wants to know "which lane am I on, and what else is
there" has no self-serve answer
> - The channel rollout planned a read-only CLI command for exactly this
> - This pull request adds `paperclipai channels`: every lane with the
version its dist-tag resolves to, the install command for it, and which
lane the running install follows
> - The benefit is self-serve lane discovery without reading release
documentation
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #11008 — the user-facing discovery surface for the channel model
completed there.
**Subsystem affected**
CLI: `cli/src/commands/channels.ts` (new), `cli/src/index.ts`,
`doc/CHANNELS.md`, tests.
**Problem or motivation**
Channel selection is install-based (`@latest` / `@beta` / `@nightly` /
`@canary`), but nothing in the product tells a user which channel their
install follows or what the other lanes currently resolve to. The
information lives in `doc/CHANNELS.md` and the npm registry, neither of
which a running install surfaces.
**Proposed solution**
A read-only `paperclipai channels` command: prints each channel with the
version its dist-tag currently resolves to (per-lane registry lookups
that degrade to `unavailable` individually), the install command for
each, and the running install's lane parsed from its version suffix —
source checkouts carry the repository's placeholder version and are
reported as unmapped rather than guessed. `--json` emits the same data
for scripting.
## What Changed
- `cli/src/commands/channels.ts` (new): channel table, lane parsing,
registry resolution, human and `--json` output
- `cli/src/index.ts`: registers `channels`
- `doc/CHANNELS.md`: "Seeing where you are" section
- `cli/src/__tests__/channels.test.ts` (new): lane parsing including
unknown versions, full resolution against a fake runner, per-lane
degradation, table/dist-tag sync
## Verification
- `vitest run cli/src/__tests__/channels.test.ts`: 5 pass
- `pnpm typecheck` in `cli/`
- Live run against the real registry shows all four lanes with their
current versions (`2026.722.0` / `2026.811.0-beta.0` /
`2026.811.0-nightly.0` / canary) and correctly reports a source checkout
as unmapped
## Risks
- Low. Read-only command reusing the existing `resolvePublishedVersion`
registry helper; no state, no auth, no publish surface
## Model Used
Claude Fable 5 (`claude-fable-5`, Anthropic) in Claude Code, with
extended thinking and full tool use. All changes model-authored under
human direction.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source control plane people use to manage
AI-agent companies
> - Operators need a predictable installation path that survives beyond
an ephemeral `npx` process
> - A durable installation needs an owned per-user payload store, stable
command shim, safe shell integration, and supported service lifecycle
> - Updates must preserve recoverability by backing up data, installing
side-by-side, verifying the new payload, and retaining rollback state
> - Bootstrap scripts and privileged service operations must fail closed
across download, filesystem, ownership, and consent boundaries
> - This pull request integrates managed install, update, rollback,
service, uninstall, doctor, bootstrap-installer, and runtime-serving
support into one workflow
> - The benefit is a recoverable, inspectable, and documented
installation lifecycle with explicit safety boundaries across Linux,
macOS, containers, WSL, npm, npx, and source checkouts
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
### Problem
Paperclip lacks a first-class durable installation and lifecycle
workflow. Operators currently have to assemble npm/npx installation,
PATH setup, background-service management, updates, rollback,
diagnostics, and uninstall behavior themselves. That makes upgrades
harder to recover, creates inconsistent behavior across platforms, and
leaves shell/download/service trust boundaries without one documented
implementation.
### Proposed Solution
Add a managed per-user install store and stable shim, a verified shell
bootstrap installer, service lifecycle commands, install-mode-aware
update/rollback behavior, doctor checks, and documentation. Managed
updates back up the database, install and smoke-test a side-by-side
payload, atomically switch `current`, and retain prior payloads. The
shell installer pins registry/download trust boundaries and requires
explicit consent for non-interactive privileged actions.
### Alternatives Considered
- Keep recommending `npx`: simple for evaluation, but ephemeral and
unsuitable for stable services, atomic updates, or rollback.
- Require global npm installation only: familiar, but cannot provide the
owned side-by-side payload store and retained rollback semantics.
- Split the capability across multiple PRs: rejected because install,
update, service, uninstall, bootstrap, and serving behavior share
contracts and security boundaries that need review together.
### Related Pull Requests
- Supersedes #10042 and #10044 with one integrated final diff.
- Incorporates and replaces the closed preparatory work in #10032 and
#10034.
## What Changed
- Added `paperclipai install`, `update`/`upgrade`, rollback, uninstall,
service lifecycle, onboarding integration, and managed-install doctor
checks.
- Added a private managed payload store, verified manifest/marker
ownership, exclusive mutation locks, atomic manifest/current/shim
writes, retained previous payloads, and provenance validation.
- Added npm and GitHub-ref install sources with exact target resolution,
registry isolation, database backup, side-by-side verification, atomic
activation, service restart coordination, and failure rollback.
- Made managed-update backups report actionable service-start and
`--no-backup` recovery guidance for unreachable databases, while clean
never-onboarded instances skip an empty backup.
- Added systemd user and launchd service definitions, status/health/log
commands, single-instance coordination, stale-port recovery, and
explicit sudo/lingering consent handling.
- Added the `scripts/install.sh` bootstrap path with checked two-stage
downloads, pinned public npm registry usage, platform checks,
dry-run/non-interactive controls, and Docker fixtures.
- Added embedded Postgres/native bootstrap integration,
hot-restart/systemd-notify serving support, passive update notices,
configuration contracts, README/CLI/install documentation, and focused
regression tests.
- Security re-review should explicitly re-verify: (1)
`addManagedPathBlock`/`removeManagedPathBlock` reject symlinked or
non-regular rc files, assert current-user ownership, preserve
restrictive modes, and replace atomically; (2) managed shim replacement
rejects unsafe parents, foreign-owned or multiply linked files, and uses
checked atomic replacement; (3) the shell installer and sudo path
preserve explicit consent and checked downloads; and (4) installed
service/runtime serving remains bound to the validated managed shim and
instance configuration.
## Verification
- `bash -n scripts/install.sh scripts/clean-install-git.sh
scripts/clean-install-npm.sh scripts/test-install-sh-docker.sh`
- `pnpm exec vitest run cli/src/__tests__/install-store.test.ts
cli/src/__tests__/install-command.test.ts
cli/src/__tests__/managed-install-check.test.ts
cli/src/__tests__/onboard-service.test.ts
cli/src/__tests__/service-health-check.test.ts
cli/src/__tests__/service-manager.test.ts
cli/src/__tests__/update-command.test.ts
cli/src/__tests__/update-notice.test.ts
packages/db/src/embedded-postgres-native.test.ts` — 9 files, 66 tests
passed
- `pnpm --dir cli typecheck`
- `pnpm --dir cli build`
- Follow-up verification: `pnpm exec vitest run
cli/src/__tests__/update-command.test.ts` (14/14), `pnpm --dir cli
typecheck`, `pnpm --dir cli build`, and `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/server typecheck`.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm build`
- Full `pnpm test:run` exercised all suites; an injected static AWS
credential changed one unrelated doctor expectation, which passed when
those credentials were removed. A second run cleared that case and
exposed stale pre-existing adapter-utils `dist` output; rebuilding
`@paperclipai/adapter-utils` made the isolated test pass. The updated PR
CI is the authoritative clean-workspace full-suite run.
## Risks
- Installer/update code writes executable shims, symlinks, shell rc
blocks, service definitions, and managed payloads; ownership,
regular-file, symlink, hard-link, marker, and path-containment checks
fail closed before destructive changes.
- The bootstrap installer executes downloaded tooling; downloads are
staged and checked before execution, npm traffic is pinned to the public
registry, and non-interactive privileged behavior requires explicit
consent.
- Linux lingering may invoke `sudo`; the command is surfaced and
confirmed before execution, and unsupported service managers fall back
to foreground-run guidance.
- Database migrations remain forward-only; payload rollback does not
reverse migrations, so managed updates create a backup before activation
unless explicitly disabled.
- Service restart and runtime serving touch process/port ownership;
lifecycle locks, health/version checks, and stable-shim service
definitions reduce split-brain and stale-process risk.

## 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 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.

Fixes#7551
## 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.
## What Changed
- 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.

Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is a control plane for AI-agent companies, with the CLI
acting as a scriptable operator and agent interface to that control
plane.
> - The REST API surface has grown across companies, agents, issues,
routines, plugins, auth, workspaces, secrets, and operational inspection
commands.
> - The CLI had drifted from that API surface: some commands were
missing, some command shapes differed from docs/reference material, and
several edge cases only failed during end-to-end local-source testing.
> - The local development runbook requires these tests to be disposable
and isolated from a real `~/.paperclip`, `~/.codex`, or `~/.claude`
installation.
> - This pull request adds broad CLI/API parity coverage, fixes the
actionable bugs found during that pass, and records the reproducible
test log under `doc/logs`.
> - The benefit is a more complete, scriptable CLI surface with
regression coverage for the command families exercised by the parity
run.
## What Changed
- Added or expanded CLI command coverage for access/auth, companies,
agents, projects, goals, issues and subresources, routines, plugins,
workspaces, activity/run/cost/dashboard inspection, assets, skills,
secrets, tokens, prompt/wake flows, and local setup helpers.
- Fixed CLI/API parity bugs found during the run, including context
profile patching, issue interaction optional payloads, malformed
tree-hold errors, environment duplicate handling, configure
invalid-section exit codes, worktree pnpm invocation, token agent ID
resolution, plugin tool worker lookup, and routine webhook secret
cleanup.
- Added missing CLI wrappers and route coverage for health/access,
invite resolution URL forwarding, join status normalization, secret
lifecycle commands, LLM docs routes, available-skill isolation, positive
board-claim coverage, and interactive `connect` prompt-flow tests.
- Added a schema-backed `/api/openapi.json` route sufficient for CLI
parity and `paperclipai openapi --json` smoke coverage.
- Added `doc/logs/2026-05-24-cli-api-parity-e2e-log.md` with the
detailed living test/bug log and renamed the log directory from
`doc/bugs` to `doc/logs`.
- Added `doc/plans/2026-05-23-cli-api-parity.md` and the OpenAPI parity
reference used during the pass.
OpenAPI note: this PR intentionally does not try to subsume
`feature/openapi-spec`. The OpenAPI implementation here is schema-backed
and better than the earlier route-inventory stub, but
`feature/openapi-spec` is the fuller/better OpenAPI branch because it
includes exact mounted-route coverage tests and additional current route
coverage. That branch should stay as its own PR and can supersede this
OpenAPI route implementation.
## Verification
Targeted automated checks run:
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/board-claim.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run cli/src/__tests__/connect.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run cli/src/__tests__/agent-lifecycle.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/plugin-database.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/routines-service.test.ts`
- `pnpm --dir cli typecheck`
- `pnpm --dir server typecheck`
Manual/local E2E verification:
- Ran the full disposable local-source CLI/API parity pass with isolated
`PAPERCLIP_HOME`, `PAPERCLIP_CONFIG`, `PAPERCLIP_CONTEXT`,
`PAPERCLIP_AUTH_STORE`, `CODEX_HOME`, and `CLAUDE_HOME` under
`tmp/cli-api-parity`.
- Verified `DATABASE_URL` and `DATABASE_MIGRATION_URL` stayed unset for
the scratch server.
- Verified live health and schema-backed OpenAPI responses on
non-default port `3197`.
- Revoked created board/agent tokens and cleaned up temporary plugins,
secrets, non-default environments, and project workspaces.
- See `doc/logs/2026-05-24-cli-api-parity-e2e-log.md` for the full
command-by-command reproduction log.
Not run:
- Full `pnpm test`, `pnpm test:run`, or `pnpm build` were not run after
the entire branch because the branch is broad and the parity pass used
focused test/typecheck verification plus live isolated CLI reruns.
## Risks
- This is a broad PR and touches many CLI command modules, so review
surface is high. The changes are grouped around one theme, but a split
may be easier if maintainers prefer narrower PRs.
- The OpenAPI route in this PR is not the final/best OpenAPI
implementation. `feature/openapi-spec` has stronger exact-route coverage
and should remain the source for the dedicated OpenAPI PR.
- The living log is intentionally detailed and large. It is useful for
reproducibility but adds documentation weight.
- No UI changes are intended; screenshots are not applicable.

## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex, GPT-5-based coding agent in Codex desktop. Exact served
model/context-window identifier was not exposed in the local app. Work
used shell/Git/GitHub CLI tooling, local source inspection, targeted
test execution, and live isolated Paperclip CLI/API smoke testing.

## 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
packages/shared/src/validators/company-skill.test.ts
packages/adapter-utils/src/server-utils.test.ts
packages/plugins/create-paperclip-plugin/src/entrypoints.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.
## Checklist

to this change
- [x] I have specified the model used (with version and capability
details)
- [x] I have checked ROADMAP.md and confirmed this PR does not duplicate
planned core work
- [x] I have run targeted tests locally and documented the local
workspace-runtime seed failure above
- [x] I have added or updated tests where applicable
- [x] If this change affects the UI, screenshots were intentionally
omitted per PAP-10124 instructions; UI behavior is covered by tests and
reviewer inspection

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the control plane for AI-agent companies.
> - Operators need a path to move local company state toward Paperclip
Cloud without losing local-first control.
> - The Cloud Upstream flow needs API, persistence, CLI, and board UI
surfaces that agree on the same manifest/run model.
> - The existing branch had the feature work plus UX and error-handling
follow-ups.
> - This pull request packages the remaining Cloud Upstream sync work
into one standalone branch.
> - The benefit is an inspectable local-to-cloud sync workflow with
preview, conflicts, activation, and captured UX review states.
## What Changed
- Added Cloud Upstream shared types, server routes/services, and
persisted run schema/migration.
- Added Paperclip Cloud CLI sync helpers and local connection storage.
- Added the Cloud Upstream board UI, settings entry points, query keys,
and UX lab page.
- Added preview/activation checklist behavior, redirect handling,
manifest-only preview support, friendly errors, in-flight hints, and
entity count summaries.
## Verification
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/plugin-sdk build`
- `NODE_ENV=test pnpm exec vitest run cli/src/__tests__/cloud.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-service.test.ts
ui/src/pages/CloudUpstream.test.tsx
ui/src/components/CompanySettingsSidebar.test.tsx`
- `NODE_ENV=test pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/cloud-upstreams.test.ts`
Worktree setup note: the isolated worktree install skipped native sqlite
build scripts, so I copied the already-built local sqlite binding from
the main checkout before running
`server/src/__tests__/cloud-upstreams.test.ts`. The test then passed.
## Risks
- Medium: this adds a database migration and a broad feature path across
CLI/server/UI.
- Merge order: this is the only PR in this split with a DB migration;
merge it before any future Cloud Upstream migration follow-up.
- Mitigation: the PR is based directly on current `origin/master`, has
targeted route/service/UI tests, and keeps the feature behind existing
experimental Cloud Sync settings.

## 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 environments subsystem already models execution environments,
but before this branch there was no end-to-end SSH-backed runtime path
for agents to actually run work against a remote box
> - That meant agents could be configured around environment concepts
without a reliable way to execute adapter sessions remotely, sync
workspace state, and preserve run context across supported adapters
> - We also need environment selection to participate in normal
Paperclip control-plane behavior: agent defaults, project/issue
selection, route validation, and environment probing
> - Because this capability is still experimental, the UI surface should
be easy to hide and easy to remove later without undoing the underlying
implementation
> - This pull request adds SSH environment execution support across the
runtime, adapters, routes, schema, and tests, then puts the visible
environment-management UI behind an experimental flag
> - The benefit is that we can validate real SSH-backed agent execution
now while keeping the user-facing controls safely gated until the
feature is ready to come out of experimentation
## What Changed
- Added SSH-backed execution target support in the shared adapter
runtime, including remote workspace preparation, skill/runtime asset
sync, remote session handling, and workspace restore behavior after
runs.
- Added SSH execution coverage for supported local adapters, plus remote
execution tests across Claude, Codex, Cursor, Gemini, OpenCode, and Pi.
- Added environment selection and environment-management backend support
needed for SSH execution, including route/service work, validation,
probing, and agent default environment persistence.
- Added CLI support for SSH environment lab verification and updated
related docs/tests.
- Added the `enableEnvironments` experimental flag and gated the
environment UI behind it on company settings, agent configuration, and
project configuration surfaces.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/adapters/claude-local/src/server/execute.remote.test.ts
packages/adapters/cursor-local/src/server/execute.remote.test.ts
packages/adapters/gemini-local/src/server/execute.remote.test.ts
packages/adapters/opencode-local/src/server/execute.remote.test.ts
packages/adapters/pi-local/src/server/execute.remote.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/environment-routes.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-routes.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/lib/new-agent-hire-payload.test.ts
ui/src/lib/new-agent-runtime-config.test.ts`
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm build`
- Manual verification on a branch-local dev server:
- enabled the experimental flag
- created an SSH environment
- created a Linux Claude agent using that environment
- confirmed a run executed on the Linux box and synced workspace changes
back
## Risks
- Medium: this touches runtime execution flow across multiple adapters,
so regressions would likely show up in remote session setup, workspace
sync, or environment selection precedence.
- The UI flag reduces exposure, but the underlying runtime and route
changes are still substantial and rely on migration correctness.
- The change set is broad across adapters, control-plane services,
migrations, and UI gating, so review should pay close attention to
environment-selection precedence and remote workspace lifecycle
behavior.
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex via Paperclip's local Codex adapter, GPT-5-class coding
model with tool use and code execution in the local repo workspace. The
local adapter does not surface a more specific public model version
string in this branch workflow.
