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

## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex from the GPT-5 model family used agentic reasoning, tool
use, and code execution. The runtime did not expose the exact model ID
or context window.
- Anthropic Claude Opus 5 used a 1M context window, tool use, and code
execution for part of the user interface repair, as recorded in the
commit history.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Issues use `in_review` to request a final decision from an
authorized writer
> - The server rejected an assignee agent that tried to close its own
review, even when the issue had no independent-review rule
> - This rejection stopped the default agent workflow and did not
represent the configured execution-stage rules
> - Paperclip needs an open default and explicit issue-level constraints
for teams that require an independent or human verdict
> - This pull request removes the unconditional rejection and adds
`anyone`, `not_creator`, and `human_only` review policies
> - The benefit is a working default path with opt-in, authenticated
verdict controls
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Refs #10635, #4429, and #10671.
The related public work covers execution-stage independence,
self-approval fallback behavior, and durable review paths. This change
is distinct. It controls who can resolve an issue review verdict. It
keeps configured execution stages active.
## What Changed
- Added a nullable `review_policy` issue column. Null has the same
meaning as `anyone`. The migration does not backfill existing issues.
- Added shared create, update, response, and compact issue contracts for
`anyone`, `not_creator`, and `human_only`.
- Removed the unconditional agent self-approval rejection for
`in_review` issues.
- Added one reusable verdict-actor check for terminal status changes and
pending interaction accept or reject actions.
- Used the authenticated principal type for `human_only`. Agent keys and
run tokens remain agent principals.
- Used the latest transition into `in_review` to identify the requester
for `not_creator`.
- Added actionable 403 responses that name the policy, the allowed
actor, and the next step.
- Kept the configured execution-stage transition and signoff behavior.
- Added focused contract, helper, status-route, interaction-route, and
execution-stage regression tests.
- Updated the implementation specification for the new issue field.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/validators/issue.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-review-policy.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-stalled-review-decision-routes.test.ts
--reporter=dot` passed: 42 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck` passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db typecheck` passed, including migration
numbering and safety checks.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` passed.
- `pnpm run typecheck:build-gaps` passed across server, CLI, plugin
SDK/examples, plugin wiki, and UI.
- `git diff --check origin/master...HEAD` passed.
- SecurityEngineer review approved the authenticated-principal checks
and accepted policy-relaxation tradeoff with no required changes.
- Greptile reviewed the latest head at 5/5 with zero inline comments or
follow-ups.
- The latest-head GitHub rollup passed build, typecheck,
server/workspace tests, serialized suites, canary, e2e, and external
security checks.
## Risks
- The migration adds one nullable text column. It has no default and no
backfill.
- `not_creator` reads the latest recorded transition into `in_review`.
It denies the verdict when it cannot identify the requester.
- Agents can change or relax `reviewPolicy` when they have issue write
access. This is intentional for this issue-level control.
- Null and `anyone` do not add a database query to the verdict path.
- Configured execution-stage checks still run after the issue-level
policy check.
> This work aligns with the completed "Agent Reviews and Approvals" and
"Enforced Outcomes" roadmap items. It does not add a new roadmap
capability.
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex, GPT-5. The exact deployment ID and context-window size
are not exposed to the agent. The run used reasoning, repository tools,
code execution, and GitHub CLI access.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The Inbox helps operators scan task state on desktop and mobile
screens
> - Read and unread rows must keep the same title and status alignment
> - The mobile unread control was a flex item, so unread rows gained an
extra leading column
> - Moving the control out of flex flow fixes the indent, but the tap
target must stay inside clipped row containers
> - This pull request reserves one mobile gutter for both states and
overlays the unread control inside that gutter
> - The benefit is stable mobile alignment without clipping the control
or blocking the parent-row chevron
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
Related merged work: Refs #9383, Refs #9685, and Refs #9767.
**What happened?**
On mobile screens, an unread Inbox row placed the mark-as-read control
in the flex layout. The extra flex item moved the status and title to
the right. A first overlay position could also place part of the control
outside a row that clips overflow.
**Expected behavior**
Read and unread rows must use the same title and status positions. The
unread control must stay tappable inside the row. A parent-row chevron
must remain independently usable.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Open the Inbox on a mobile viewport.
2. Compare read and unread rows with the same nesting depth.
3. Include an unread parent row with a collapse chevron.
4. Observe that the unread row content starts farther right than the
read row content.
**Paperclip version or commit**
The issue reproduced on the `master` parent of this pull request.
**Deployment mode**
Local dev (`pnpm dev`).
**Installation method**
Built from source.
## What Changed
- Reserve a mobile leading gutter whenever an Inbox row participates in
unread state.
- Position the mark-as-read control absolutely inside that gutter so it
does not add a flex column.
- Keep read and unread rows on the same mobile padding path.
- Keep the control inside overflow-clipping row containers and separate
from the parent-row chevron.
- Update the `IssueRow` regression test to verify absolute placement,
the internal gutter, and the absence of `order-first` layout.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/components/IssueRow.test.tsx` — 16 tests
passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — all token gates passed across 722 files.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm build` — passed.
- `pnpm test:run` — the general server shard passed 3,448 tests and the
UI shard passed 3,362 tests. The CLI shard had one host-environment
failure because inherited temporary AWS access-key variables changed an
AWS doctor assertion from `pass` to `warn`.
- `env -u AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID -u AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY -u
AWS_SESSION_TOKEN pnpm exec vitest run
cli/src/__tests__/secrets.test.ts` — the affected file passed 8 tests in
an isolated environment.
- Mobile QA at 402 × 874 confirmed equal read/unread title positions, no
shift after marking a row as read, and an independently usable parent
chevron.
## Risks
- Low risk. The change affects only `IssueRow` mobile presentation and
its focused regression test.
- The main risk is breakpoint-specific placement. The component test
covers the responsive classes, and mobile QA covers the rendered
interaction.
- No API, schema, dependency, telemetry, or documentation contract
changes.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The Inbox and Tasks screens render issues as a vertical list of
`IssueRow` components
> - A recent refactor split `IssueRow` into a root `div` plus a full-row
overlay `Link`, and the divider and hover styles moved onto that overlay
> - As a result every row shows a bottom border and hover greys the text
instead of tinting the background
> - This pull request moves the divider and hover/selected wash back
onto the root row band and keeps only positioning on the overlay
> - The benefit is the list reads cleanly again: no stray dividers, and
hover tints the background behind the text
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public GitHub issue exists. Describing the bug in-PR (bug report):
**What happened**
- In the Inbox and Tasks list views, every row shows a 1px bottom
border, including the last row.
- Hovering a row dims/greys the row text instead of showing a background
tint behind the content.
**Expected behavior**
- List rows in Inbox and Tasks show no separator lines by default.
- Hover shows a subtle background tint behind the row content; the text
stays fully legible.
- The blocked inbox view keeps its intentional separators.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Open the Inbox or Tasks list view.
2. Note the horizontal border under every row, including the last.
3. Hover a row and note the text greys out rather than the background
tinting.
**Root cause**
- PR #10526 restructured `IssueRow` from a single root `Link` into a
root `div` plus a full-row `absolute inset-0` overlay `Link` (to keep
header controls clickable). The divider and hover/selected/checklist
background classes moved onto the overlay `Link`. `last:border-b-0` no
longer matched (the Link is the first child of a multi-child div), and
the hover wash painted on top of the content instead of behind it.
**Paperclip version/commit**
- Base commit: `8b83d69e3` (branched from current `master`).
**Deployment mode**
- UI (web) list views: Inbox and Tasks.
## What Changed
- `ui/src/components/IssueRow.tsx`: moved the divider classes and the
hover/selected/checklist background wash from the overlay `Link` to the
root row `div`, so the tint paints behind the content and
`last:border-b-0` matches the real last row. The overlay `Link` now
keeps only `absolute inset-0` positioning and the focus ring. Renamed
the `hideDivider` prop to an opt-in `showDivider` (default `false`).
Kept `[&_button]:relative [&_button]:z-10` on the root so the Archive
button stays clickable above the overlay, and kept the `isArchiving`
collapse animation on the root row.
- `ui/src/components/IssuesList.tsx`: dropped the old `hideDivider`
usage (dividers are now opt-in).
- `ui/src/pages/Inbox.tsx`: dropped the old `hideDivider` usage.
- `ui/src/components/BlockedInboxView.tsx`: added `showDivider` so this
view keeps its separators.
## Verification
- `cd ui && npx tsc -b` — typecheck passes with the change.
- Manual (recommended for reviewer): in the Inbox and Tasks list views,
confirm no per-row bottom border and that the last row has none. Because
dark-mode `--border` is 10% white and near-invisible in screenshots,
assert the computed `border-bottom-width` on a row element rather than
eyeballing pixels.
- Hover a row: text stays legible; a background tint appears behind the
content.
- Inbox: the Archive button appears on hover and is clickable (the
overlay does not swallow the click).
- Blocked inbox view: separators still render.
## Risks
- Low risk. The change relocates existing Tailwind classes between two
elements of the same row and renames one internal prop; no data or API
surface changes. All `IssueRow` call sites were updated in this PR
(verified: no remaining `hideDivider` references).

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Operators use the task page header to read and change task state
> - The status and priority icons already had picker logic, but the
compact triggers were not semantic controls
> - This made pointer and keyboard interaction unreliable in the task
header
> - This pull request makes both compact icon triggers real buttons and
keeps the existing picker behavior
> - The benefit is that operators can change status and priority
directly from the header with pointer or keyboard input
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
### Subsystem affected
`ui/` — React + Vite board UI.
### Problem or motivation
The compact status and priority icons can receive change handlers, but
their popover triggers are plain icon elements. They do not provide a
reliable click target, keyboard focus, or control label. Operators need
to change both values directly from the task header.
### Proposed solution
Use semantic button triggers in the shared status and priority
components. Keep the existing API update wiring and picker options. Keep
task-row navigation links separate from editable row controls. An
operator can select either icon, open its picker, and choose a new task
status or priority.
### Alternatives considered
A task-page-only wrapper would duplicate control behavior. Moving the
controls would also change the page layout. The shared components
already own the picker behavior, so a shared trigger fix is smaller and
more consistent.
### Roadmap alignment
This is a focused board UI usability and accessibility fix. It does not
duplicate a planned roadmap feature.
### Additional context
The task page already passes change handlers to these shared components.
This change makes that existing path interactive and accessible.
## What Changed
- Added semantic button triggers for compact and labeled status
controls.
- Added semantic button triggers for compact and labeled priority
controls.
- Added accessible current-state labels and keyboard focus styles.
- Separated issue-row navigation links from row controls to avoid nested
interactive elements.
- Added real popover interaction coverage and row semantics regressions.
- Added task-page regression tests for update requests.
## Verification
- Focused task-header and row suites passed with 131 tests.
- The final row, inbox, and picker regression suites passed with 83
tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec tsc -b --force` passed.
- `pnpm run typecheck:build-gaps` reproduced the CI typecheck before the
fix. The forced UI build passed after the fix.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed.
- `pnpm build` passed.
- `pnpm test:run` completed the server and UI partitions. One unrelated
CLI AWS doctor assertion saw injected static AWS credentials and
returned `warn` instead of `pass`. The exact test passed after those two
environment variables were removed.
- `git diff --check origin/master...HEAD` passed.
- All latest-head GitHub checks passed, including both e2e shards.
- Greptile passed at the required threshold with zero open review
threads.
## Risks
- The shared issue-row DOM now uses a full-area navigation link beside
native action buttons.
- Existing visual layout, pointer navigation, keyboard navigation, and
action behavior remain covered by row, inbox, and list tests.
- Read-only status and priority icon uses are unchanged.

## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex with the `gpt-5` model. The runtime did not expose its
context window size. The agent used reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and GitHub CLI integration.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The Inbox lets operators scan task state and distinguish unread
activity at a glance
> - Read and unread rows should keep the same status-and-title alignment
so the list remains easy to scan
> - The mark-read dot previously participated in flex layout, which
added an extra leading column and visibly indented unread rows
> - Parent rows also needed special handling because their collapse
chevron occupies the normal leading gutter
> - This pull request moves the unread dot out of desktop flex flow,
preserves a consistent leading spacer, and positions parent-row dots
after the chevron
> - The benefit is consistent alignment for read, unread, leaf, nested,
and collapsible parent rows without hiding tree controls
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
### What happened?
In the Inbox, an unread row rendered its status icon and title farther
right than an equivalent read row because the mark-read dot occupied its
own flex column. On a collapsible parent row, the dot also competed with
the leading chevron.
### Expected behavior
Read and unread Inbox rows keep identical status/title alignment while
preserving the unread affordance and any tree-expansion controls.
### Steps to reproduce
1. Run Paperclip from `master` and open the Inbox at desktop width.
2. Compare otherwise-equivalent read and unread leaf rows.
3. Expand a task tree containing an unread depth-zero parent.
4. Observe the unread row indentation and the dot competing with the
parent chevron.
### Paperclip version or commit
Reproduced against the pre-fix `master` parent of this PR.
- **Deployment mode:** Local dev (`pnpm dev`).
- **Installation method:** Built from source.
- **Agent adapters involved:** Not adapter-specific; this is a core
Inbox UI bug.
- **Database mode:** Not database-related.
- **Access context:** Board (human operator).
- **Additional context:** No logs or configuration are involved; the
regression is visual layout behavior covered by focused component/page
tests.
## What Changed
- Render the desktop unread dot as an absolute overlay so it does not
consume row width; retain the existing in-flow behavior on mobile.
- Add an `unreadDotPlacement` option so depth-zero collapsible parents
place the dot after the leading chevron.
- Reserve the same leading spacer for read and unread non-chevron Inbox
rows.
- Expand `IssueRow` and Inbox tests to cover leaf alignment, nested
rows, parent chevrons, fading state, and mobile behavior.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/components/IssueRow.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/Inbox.test.tsx` — 2 files, 30 tests passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — all three token gates clean across 630
scanned files.
- Browser QA (desktop 1280px and mobile 375px) — PASS: read/unread
desktop content measured at identical x positions; nested guides, parent
chevron hit target, fading state, and mobile mark-read hit targets
verified.
## Risks
- Low risk: the change is isolated to Inbox row presentation and has
focused regression coverage.
- The main visual risk is breakpoint-specific placement of the mark-read
dot; tests explicitly cover desktop absolute positioning and mobile
in-flow positioning.

## Model Used

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Operators use the issue list, blocked-work notices, pipeline body
documents, and issue documents to understand what agents are doing
> - Some of those surfaces had low-information details: live-work
blockers were visually easy to miss, revision history showed generic
actor labels, and selected active subtasks carried an extra accent
border
> - These details matter because Paperclip's default UI should make
agent state and work history legible without requiring users to inspect
raw logs
> - This pull request groups a small set of related operator UI polish
changes for those work-state and document-history surfaces
> - The benefit is clearer review context for blocked work, better
attribution in document revision history, and cleaner active-subtask row
styling
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public GitHub issue found during dedup search.
### Bug Report
**Pre-submission checklist**
- Searched existing open PRs/issues for `document revision authors` and
`blocked notice live work`; no duplicates found.
- Reproduced against the current `master` base for this PR.
- Confirmed this is core board UI behavior, not adapter/provider/local
configuration.
**What happened?**
Blocked live-work notices, document revision history, pipeline body
document revision history, and active subtask rows exposed technically
correct but low-signal UI details. Revision menus could show generic
`Board`/`Agent` labels instead of the specific author, and selected
active subtasks had an extra accent border.
**Expected behavior**
Operators should see clear blocked-live-work copy, recognizable revision
authors using available agent/user profile data, and visually consistent
selected task rows.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Open an issue with a live-work blocker and inspect the blocked
notice.
2. Open an issue document revision menu with agent/user-authored
revisions.
3. Open a pipeline item body document revision menu with
agent/user-authored revisions.
4. Inspect a selected active subtask row in the issue list.
**Paperclip version or commit**
`8b6a06ee2` (`origin/master` at branch creation).
**Deployment mode**
Local dev / self-hosted board UI.
**Installation method**
Built from source.
**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Not adapter-specific (core board UI).
**Database mode**
Not database-related.
**Access context**
Board operator UI.
**Relevant logs or output**
Not applicable.
**Relevant config**
Not applicable.
**Additional context**
This PR is a small polish/fix contribution. `ROADMAP.md` allows tightly
scoped bugs and polish without roadmap-level coordination.
**Privacy checklist**
Reviewed the PR body for private instance references and omitted
internal ticket links.
## What Changed
- Polished the live-work blocked notice copy and tests so operators get
a clearer explanation of what is blocking progress.
- Show issue document revision authors with agent/user names and avatar
treatment instead of generic actor labels.
- Show pipeline body document revision authors with the same available
agent/user profile data.
- Removed the extra left accent border from selected active subtask
rows.
- Stabilized the document revision test helper for React runtimes where
`act` is not exported as a function.
## Verification
- `git diff --check origin/master..HEAD`
- `git diff --name-only origin/master..HEAD -- .github/workflows
pnpm-lock.yaml` produced no output.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` passed: all color literal, arbitrary bracket
value, and raw font-size gates clean.
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/components/IssueBlockedNotice.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueDocumentsSection.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueRow.test.tsx` passed: 3 test files, 32 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` passed.
- Remote PR checks passed on head `3e18fe3f`: 22 complete, 0 pending, 0
failing.
- Greptile completed at 5/5 with no blocking issues after addressing the
pipeline revision author feedback.
## Risks
Low risk. The change is limited to board UI rendering and component
tests. The main risk is a subtle visual regression in issue/document
surfaces that are not covered by screenshots; the affected component
tests cover the intended copy, attribution, and row-style behavior.

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Its UI is governed by a design system (`DESIGN.md` + the token layer
in `ui/src/index.css`, merged in #9134) whose first principle is "one
way to say each thing" — one Card, one Badge, one nav row
> - After the token extraction landed, ~35 files still hand-rolled card
containers, ~45 files hand-rolled pill spans, the sidebar agents section
duplicated the nav-row chrome, and the inbox and tasks lists rendered
the same task rows two subtly different ways
> - Each divergence is a place where a future design change (radius,
hover language, status vocabulary) silently misses surfaces, defeating
the "edit tokens + run checks" model the design system exists for
> - This pull request converges those surfaces onto the shared
primitives, codifies the radius scale as the modern multiplicative
shadcn ladder, and unifies the row/hover/tree-guide language across the
inbox and tasks lists — every visible delta was human-reviewed
screen-by-screen against a live instance across nine feedback rounds
> - The benefit is that the app's look is now steerable from single
knobs (one `--radius` anchor, one Card, one Badge, one row component),
and the visual regression suite covers the result (514 snapshots
including a new AgentDetail page story)
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No public GitHub issue exists for this work; describing per the feature
template:
- **Problem**: after the design-token foundation (#9134),
component-level drift remained — hand-rolled cards/pills, duplicated
sidebar row chrome, and two different renderings of task rows (inbox vs
tasks list) meant design changes had to be applied per-surface and
frequently missed spots (e.g. status glyphs rendered 16px in the inbox
but 20px in the tasks list because a slot override silently beat the
component default).
- **Proposed behavior**: all card-shaped containers render via `Card`,
all label pills via `Badge`, sidebar rows via `SidebarNavItem`, and both
task-list surfaces via one `IssueRow` configuration; the radius scale is
a single multiplicative ladder anchored at `--radius: 0.5rem`.
- **Alternatives considered**: converting interactive
`<button>`/`<Link>` cards to `Card` divs (rejected — breaks semantics;
documented inline with `design-allow` comments instead); keeping the
legacy additive radius ladder (rejected in favor of the standard shadcn
multiplicative mapping).
## What Changed
- `Card` adoption across ~35 files (settings pages, auth/board flows,
dashboards, list containers, KPI tiles); non-adoptable sites
(interactive cards, `<li>` rows, class-string props, chart tooltip)
carry documented `design-allow(card-pattern)` comments
- `Card` gains an `interactive` prop — one quiet hover affordance for
clickable cards (cursor, border darken, shadow lift, focus ring),
applied to skills tiles, artifact cards, and the company selector; cards
carry no resting shadow
- `Badge` adoption for 113 hand-rolled pill spans across ~45 files;
`PropertyChip` wraps `Badge` internally; `StatusBadge`, external-object
chips, and match chips stay bespoke by documented decision (WCAG-tuned
status mechanics)
- Radius ladder becomes the multiplicative shadcn mapping
(`sm/md/lg/xl/2xl/3xl/4xl = 0.6/0.8/1.0/1.4/1.8/2.2/2.6 × --radius`,
anchor `0.5rem`); every card surface unifies on `rounded-lg`; the
orphaned 8px literal token is deleted
- Sidebar: agent rows render via `SidebarNavItem` (new additive props:
`iconNode`, `active`, `trailing`, `liveAccessory`); live dots use
`--status-agent-running`; one row rhythm and inset rounded pill
highlight; right-aligned trailing badges; every labeled section is
collapsible
- Inbox + tasks lists unified: md status glyphs, `accent/50` rounded row
hovers, vertical tree guides under parent rows (opaque underlay so
dark-mode translucent borders don't stack), no horizontal dividers under
expanded parents; the swipe-to-archive reveal layer shows only
mid-swipe; board toggle uses the `SquareKanban` glyph
- Kanban: every column carries a status-hued tint; lanes default
expanded (including empty); compact mode collapses empty lanes to
labeled rails (fixes a clipped, label-less empty-column state)
- Storybook: new AgentDetail page story (realistic fixtures, light+dark)
joins the visual suite; suite captures with `reducedMotion: 'reduce'`
and the ux-lab reasoning ticker honors `prefers-reduced-motion`; a stale
lexical alias in `storybook/main.ts` is fixed (build was broken since
the lexical 0.46 bump)
- Keyboard navigation, from live review of the unified lists: inbox
navigation keys work on every tab (archive keys stay scoped to the
archivable tab); keyboard-driven scrolling no longer hands the selection
to whatever row lands under the stationary cursor (hover selects only
after real pointer movement); the tasks list view gains the same j/k /
arrows / Enter selection model as the inbox; and the `g` then `i`
go-to-inbox chord works app-wide instead of only on the issue detail
page
- Token gates restored to 3/3 CLEAN (tokenized a post-#9134 regression
in the recovery card); decisions recorded in
`doc/design/DECISION-SHEET.md` and `doc/design/COMPONENT-INVENTORY.md`
(investigation verdicts: FileTree vs WorkspaceFileBrowser and the four
entity pickers stay separate — evidence included)
## Verification
- `pnpm check:token-gates` → 3/3 CLEAN
- `pnpm typecheck` → green (all packages)
- `cd ui && npx vitest run` → 2106/2106 (assertions updated in lockstep
where they documented superseded decisions; new tests for the global
go-to-inbox chord)
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui build` → exit 0
- `pnpm build-storybook` → succeeds (also fixes the lexical-alias break
on master)
- Visual regression: 514-snapshot Playwright suite green against the
updated baseline (zero diffs from the keyboard-navigation round — those
changes are purely behavioral). Note: baselines live outside git per the
suite design and the baseline-manifest archive is not yet published, so
CI cannot run this suite — it was run locally throughout; every visible
delta was reviewed screen-by-screen in a live instance across nine
review rounds. Review evidence (before/after triplets) intentionally
kept out of the repo for size; available on request.
- Manual: exercised dashboard, tasks (list + board), inbox, agents,
skills, costs, settings, and artifact surfaces in light and dark themes
## Risks
- Wide but shallow visual surface: most changes are class-string
substitutions with behavior preserved (props, handlers, roles, test
ids). The riskiest areas — dnd-kit card refs (React 19 ref-as-prop),
inbox swipe-to-archive, and sidebar overlays — are covered by existing
unit tests (all green) and were manually exercised.
- Intentional visual deltas (rounded cards, tinted kanban columns, md
status glyphs, unified hovers) are design decisions recorded in
`doc/design/DECISION-SHEET.md`; each maps to a re-baselined snapshot set
locally.
- The visual suite cannot yet run in CI (unpublished baseline archive —
pre-existing condition from #9134); until that lands, snapshot coverage
is local-only.
## Model Used
- Claude Fable 5 (`claude-fable-5`, Anthropic) via Claude Code — agentic
coding with tool use (file editing, test execution, Playwright
screenshot verification); extended thinking enabled.

## 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, and task status is one of the most-scanned signals across its
whole UI.
> - The Tasks UI shows status through small coloured ring icons and
chips spread across the list, kanban, task detail, the properties
flyout, inline `@`-mentions and the breadcrumb.
> - Those ring glyphs lean heavily on colour to distinguish states,
which is hard to read for colour-blind users, and the status hues were
hard-coded in component classes rather than a single source.
> - We want color-blind-safe, distinct *shapes* per status plus a single
`--status-*` colour-token system the chips and icons share.
> - This pull request adds a unified `StatusGlyph` (one shape per
status) and the `--status-*` colour-token system, and adopts them across
every task-status surface so the new glyphs + colours render by default.
> - The benefit is a more accessible, consistent status language with
one source of truth for status hues.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
This is a **feature** (no public issue filed). Following the feature
issue template:
- **Problem / motivation:** Task status is communicated mostly by colour
(ring fills/borders), which is hard to distinguish for colour-blind
users, and the status hues are duplicated across component classes with
no single source of truth. Several community PRs have nibbled at parts
of this (see related PRs below).
- **Proposed solution:** A single `StatusGlyph` component with a
distinct *shape* per status (not just colour), backed by a `--status-*`
CSS-variable colour system (base hues + AA-tuned icon hues +
`.status-chip` / `.status-fill` color-mix helpers), adopted across all
task-status surfaces.
- **Alternatives considered:** Recolouring the existing rings in place
(rejected — still colour-only, no shape differentiation).
- **Roadmap alignment:** Additive UI only; no overlap with planned core
work.
Related community PRs (partial / different approaches to the same area —
not duplicates):
- Refs #3806 — Show issue ref and status icon in breadcrumbs and
properties
- Refs #1760 — Improve design of cancelled task status icon
- Refs #1856 — a11y title/aria-label on status and priority icons
## What Changed
- **Colour token system:** `--status-agent-*` / `--status-task-*` base
hues, AA-tuned `--status-task-icon-*` hues (light + dark), and
`.status-chip` / `.status-fill` color-mix helpers in `index.css`;
matching status→CSS-var maps in `status-colors.ts`.
- **`StatusGlyph`** — one `viewBox="0 0 24 24"` glyph per status with
distinct, color-blind-safe shapes (dashed ring, open ring, half-fill,
ring+dot, disc+check, ring+bar, ring+slash, and `in_queue` = the blocked
shape recoloured blue). Sizes `sm`/`md`/`lg`.
- **Adoption (renders by default)** across `StatusIcon`, `StatusBadge`
(agent + issue chips), `MarkdownBody` inline mentions, `IssueRow`,
`IssuesList`, `IssueProperties`, `BreadcrumbBar` + `BreadcrumbContext`,
and the task-detail header/breadcrumb.
- **Tests** for `StatusGlyph`, `StatusIcon`, `StatusBadge`, `IssueRow`,
`IssuesList`, `MarkdownBody` lock the rendered behaviour.
Scope notes: no experimental flag and no Theme Editor surfaces. The
generic `StatusBadge` (runs/goals/approvals) is unchanged.
Project-status recolour is deferred (no in-scope consumer).
## Verification
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared build` — green (tsc).
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui build` — green (tsc + vite).
- Targeted unit tests green: `StatusGlyph`, `StatusIcon`, `StatusBadge`,
`IssueRow`, `IssuesList`, `MarkdownBody`, plus consumer suites that
render these (`IssueProperties`, `IssueDetail`, `Search`,
`IssueChatThread`, `IssueFiltersPopover`, `InterruptHandoffViews`) — all
passing.
- Remaining: interactive light + dark visual confirmation across list /
kanban / detail / properties / inline mentions / breadcrumb. The glyph
shapes + AA-tuned hues were previously QA'd on the originating feature
branch.
## Risks
Low risk. Additive UI: a new component + CSS tokens, adopted at existing
status call sites. The generic `StatusBadge` and all non-status UI are
untouched; no schema/migration changes. Behaviour is exercised by unit +
consumer test suites.
## Model Used

## Summary
- Removes the amber "Planning" pill from inbox / issue-list rows in
`IssueRow`
- Updates the focused IssueRow test to assert the badge is no longer
rendered
- Per [PAP-9691](https://paperclip.ing/PAP/issues/PAP-9691): user just
doesn't want to see the badge in list rows
The underlying `issue.workMode === "planning"` data, the issue detail
composer toggle, and the server/plugin/heartbeat work-mode contract
introduced in #5353 are all untouched. Planning mode still functions;
the list-row indicator is just gone.
## Test plan
- [x] `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/ui
ui/src/components/IssueRow.test.tsx` (11 passed)
- [ ] Visual: open `/PAP/inbox` with a planning-mode issue assigned and
confirm no amber Planning pill on the row

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the control plane for autonomous AI companies, so agent
work needs visible ownership, recovery, and operator controls.
> - This local branch had accumulated several related control-plane
reliability and operator-experience fixes across recovery actions,
watchdog folding, model-profile defaults, mentions, markdown editing,
plugin launchers, and small UI polish.
> - The branch needed to be converted into a PR against the current
`origin/master` without losing dirty work or including lockfile/workflow
churn.
> - The safest standalone shape is a single rollup PR because the
recovery/server/UI files overlap heavily across the local commits and
splitting would create avoidable conflicts.
> - This pull request replays the local branch onto latest
`origin/master`, preserves the uncommitted work as logical commits, and
adds a Zod 4 validator compatibility fix found during verification.
> - The benefit is that the May 17 local branch can be reviewed and
merged as one coherent, conflict-free branch under the 100-file Greptile
limit.
## What Changed
- Rebased the local May 17 branch work onto current `origin/master` in a
dedicated worktree.
- Preserved and committed previously dirty changes for recovery retry
handling, plugin/sidebar launcher polish, and `.herenow` ignores.
- Added recovery-action behavior for returning source issues to `todo`
when retrying source-scoped recovery.
- Included the existing local recovery/liveness/watchdog fold, Codex
cheap-profile, markdown/mention, duplicate-agent, and UI polish commits
from the branch.
- Normalized shared validator `z.record(...)` schemas to explicit
string-key records for Zod 4 compatibility.
- Confirmed the PR has no `pnpm-lock.yaml` or `.github/workflows/*`
changes and stays below the 100-file Greptile limit.
## Verification
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile --ignore-scripts`
- `npm run install` in
`node_modules/.pnpm/sqlite3@5.1.7/node_modules/sqlite3` to build the
local native sqlite3 binding after installing with scripts disabled
- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/validators/issue.test.ts
packages/shared/src/project-mentions.test.ts
packages/adapter-utils/src/server-utils.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-model-profile.test.ts

- First pass: 13 files passed with 201 passing tests; 3 server files
failed before sqlite3 native binding was built.
- After rebuilding sqlite3:
`server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-model-profile.test.ts`,
`server/src/__tests__/issue-recovery-actions.test.ts`, and
`server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-active-run-output-watchdog.test.ts`

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`

## Risks
- Medium risk: this is a broad rollup PR across recovery semantics,
server tests, shared validators, and UI surfaces.
- Some embedded Postgres tests skipped locally due the host guard, so CI
should provide the stronger database-backed signal.
- UI changes were covered by component tests, but no browser screenshot
was captured in this PR creation pass.
- This branch may overlap with existing recovery/liveness PR work; merge
this PR independently or restack/close overlapping branches rather than
merging duplicate implementations together.

## 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.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is a control plane for autonomous AI companies.
> - Issues are the core unit of work, and issue comments are how board
users and agents coordinate execution.
> - Some issue conversations need to produce plans and approvals instead
of immediate implementation work.
> - The existing issue contract did not distinguish standard execution
comments from planning-oriented issue work.
> - This pull request adds an issue work-mode contract and board UI
affordances for standard vs planning mode.
> - The benefit is that planning-mode issues can be created, displayed,
discussed, and carried through agent heartbeat context without losing
the normal issue workflow.
## What Changed
- Added `standard` / `planning` issue work-mode contracts across DB,
shared validators/types, server issue flows, plugin protocol, and
adapter heartbeat payloads.
- Added an idempotent `0081_optimal_dormammu` migration for
`issues.work_mode`, ordered after current `public-gh/master` migrations.
- Updated heartbeat/context summaries and issue-thread interaction
behavior so planning work mode is preserved when creating suggested
follow-up issues.
- Added UI support for planning-mode issue creation, issue rows, detail
composer styling, and composer work-mode toggles.
- Added focused server/shared/UI tests plus a Playwright visual
verification spec for planning-mode surfaces.
- Rebased the branch onto current `public-gh/master` and added durable
planning-mode screenshots under `doc/assets/pap-3368/`.
## Verification

## Risks
- Medium migration risk: this adds a non-null issue column. The
migration uses `ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS` so installations that applied
an older branch-local migration number can still apply the final
numbered migration safely.
- Medium contract risk: issue payloads, plugin payloads, and adapter
heartbeat payloads now include work mode; compatibility is handled by
defaulting missing values to `standard`.
- UI risk is moderate because composer controls changed; focused
component tests and visual e2e coverage exercise standard vs planning
display and toggle behavior.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies.
> - Operators use issue detail pages and child issue lists to understand
multi-step execution plans.
> - Ordered sub-issues currently read like a flat table, so dependency
chains and current next steps are harder to scan.
> - The branch work adds a workflow-oriented presentation for child
issues without changing the single-assignee task model.
> - This pull request makes ordered sub-issues read more like a progress
checklist while preserving normal issue list controls.
> - The benefit is that operators can see completed steps, active work,
blocked follow-ups, and dependency order at a glance.
## What Changed
- Added workflow sorting utilities and tests for dependency-aware child
issue ordering.
- Added sub-issue progress summary, checklist numbering, current-step
affordances, blocker context, and done-state de-emphasis in the issue
list UI.
- Wired issue detail sub-issue panels to use the workflow sort/progress
checklist presentation.
- Updated issue service behavior/tests for child issue ordering inputs
used by the UI.
- Added a Storybook visual review fixture and screenshot helper for the
sub-issue workflow checklist surface.
## Verification
- `pnpm run preflight:workspace-links && pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issues-service.test.ts
ui/src/components/IssueRow.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssuesList.test.tsx ui/src/pages/IssueDetail.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/issue-detail-subissues.test.ts
ui/src/lib/workflow-sort.test.ts`
- Result: 6 test files passed, 55 tests passed, 34 embedded Postgres
issue-service tests skipped because `@embedded-postgres/darwin-x64` is
unavailable on this host.
- Visual review: generated Storybook screenshots from the existing local
Storybook server on port 6006 with `node
scripts/screenshot-subissues.mjs /tmp/pap-2189-subissues-screens
http://localhost:6006`.
- Screenshot artifacts:
- Desktop dark: 
- Desktop light: 
- Mobile dark: 
- Mobile light: 
- Local Storybook note: starting a second Storybook process selected
port 6008 because 6006 was occupied, then Vite failed with an esbuild
host/binary version mismatch (`0.25.12` host vs `0.27.3` binary). The
already-running Storybook server on 6006 served the fixture successfully
for screenshots.
## Risks
- Medium UI risk: the issue list now has additional sub-issue-specific
visual states, so dense lists should be checked for spacing and
scanability.
- Low ordering risk: workflow sorting is covered by focused unit tests,
but unusual dependency topologies may still need reviewer attention.
- No migration risk: this PR does not add database migrations or touch
`pnpm-lock.yaml`.

Extract the inline tree-building logic from IssuesList into a pure
`buildIssueTree` function in lib/issue-tree.ts so it can be unit tested.
Add six tests covering: flat lists, parent-child grouping, multi-level
nesting, orphaned sub-tasks promoted to root, empty input, and list
order preservation.
Add two tests to IssueRow.test.tsx covering the new titleSuffix prop:
renders inline after the title when provided, and renders cleanly when
omitted.
