A single quote and an ANSI-C `$'` are what JSON serialization leaves alone, so unlike a double quote they name no layer. The reading set gave them depth 0 alone, so a serialized double-quoted segment adjacent to the closing quote was read as an escaped quote followed by a word-ending space, and its bytes stayed in the clear at every depth from 1 up. Bash joins them to the header word. Seed the tail after such an argument at every layer the unquoted reading set already carries and take the longest, which is what the union policy asks for. The body stays at depth 0 on purpose: these quotes delimit the same bytes at every layer, and reading the body deeper would take an ANSI-C escape for a plain backslash and close the value early. A backslash-newline is a line continuation. The token reader already named it, but the word scan returned at it as though it were a boundary, so the bytes on the next physical line stayed in the clear after an unquoted value and after a closed quoted argument. The shell removes the pair and joins the lines into one word, so the scan follows it now. Inside a quoted part the handling is unchanged.

@paperclipai/adapter-utils
Shared utilities for Paperclip adapters: process spawning, environment injection, sandbox/SSH transport, workspace sync, and the round-trip helpers that move code between the local execution-workspace cwd and wherever the agent actually runs.
For the adapter-author guide see
docs/adapters/creating-an-adapter.md
and the in-repo notes at packages/adapters/AUTHORING.md.
No-remote-git contract
The local execution-workspace cwd is the only persistence boundary across runs. No adapter may depend on a git remote for cross-run state.
Adapters that run the agent on a different host should use the SSH round-trip
helpers in src/ssh.ts:
prepareWorkspaceForSshExecution({ spec, localDir, remoteDir })— bundles the local cwd (tracked files, dirty edits, untracked additions, and the git history needed to reconstruct it) toremoteDirbefore the run starts. Runs with nogit remoteconfigured.restoreWorkspaceFromSshExecution({ spec, localDir, remoteDir, ... })— syncs the remote cwd back intolocalDirafter the run, including any new commits the agent created. Also runs with nogit remoteconfigured.
prepareRemoteManagedRuntime in
src/remote-managed-runtime.ts wraps both
calls for adapters that want a per-run remote workspace and an automatic
restoreWorkspace() finally hook.
The invariant is pinned by the no-remote-git contract case in
src/ssh-fixture.test.ts, which asserts that a
remote-only commit propagates to the local worktree through the
prepare → restore round-trip with no git remote configured at any point. Do
not regress that test.
