## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip relies on issue identifiers, execution policies, and agent
heartbeat rules to keep autonomous work auditable.
> - Safety checks need to reject ambiguous agent handoffs, and
identifier parsing needs to support Cloud tenant prefixes.
> - Agent instructions also need to make final-disposition rules
explicit so work does not stall in vague states.
> - This pull request isolates backend correctness and governance
hardening from the UI and recovery-system-notice branches.
> - The benefit is safer in-review transitions, better identifier
compatibility, and clearer agent operating contracts.
## What Changed
- Fixed run-aware confirmation ordering and interrupted-run state
cleanup.
- Added Cloud tenant identity bootstrap and alphanumeric issue
identifier support across shared parsing and server routes.
- Guarded agent-authored `in_review` updates unless a real review path
exists.
- Tightened heartbeat disposition instructions in adapter
utilities/default AGENTS/Paperclip skill.
## Verification
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`
- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/issue-references.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-identifier-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-execution-policy-routes.test.ts
packages/adapter-utils/src/server-utils.test.ts` initially had the first
execution-policy test hit Vitest's 5s timeout under the parallel bundle
while the rest passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issue-execution-policy-routes.test.ts
--testTimeout=20000` passed with 10/10 tests.
- Follow-up: `pnpm run typecheck:build-gaps` passed.
- Follow-up: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` passed.
- Follow-up: `pnpm vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issue-comment-reopen-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-portability.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/costs-service.test.ts` passed.
- Follow-up: `pnpm vitest run ui/src/context/LiveUpdatesProvider.test.ts
ui/src/lib/issue-chat-messages.test.ts
ui/src/lib/issue-reference.test.ts
ui/src/lib/issue-timeline-events.test.ts` passed.
## Risks
- Medium control-plane risk: in-review update validation changes agent
behavior. The error message is explicit and tests cover allowed review
paths.
## Model Used
- OpenAI GPT-5 Codex via Paperclip `codex_local` adapter, with
shell/git/GitHub CLI tool use.
