DottaandPaperclip d034ba7491 fix(interactions): derive question storage from canonical forms (#14946)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents request human input through durable issue interactions.
> - A question form has a canonical presentation and a compatibility
storage format.
> - The creation API required agents to write both formats.
> - Tool guidance told agents to split text and choice questions across
those formats.
> - This pull request accepts one complete canonical form and derives
storage fields on the server.
> - The benefit is a complete question card with stable answer and retry
behavior.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related work: Refs #13630 and #14430. PR #13630 addresses the display of
historical partial forms. This change fixes creation and keeps the check
that rejects conflicting new forms.

**What happened?**

A question save supplied three compatibility questions and one canonical
text question. The API correctly rejected the incomplete canonical form.
The Runner's tool description encouraged this split. Sending only a
complete canonical form also failed because the API required
compatibility questions.

**Expected behavior**

An agent sends one complete `payload.questionSet` with every text and
choice question. Paperclip derives `payload.questions` for storage and
answer compatibility. Existing legacy requests remain valid. Explicitly
conflicting dual forms remain invalid.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Call `paperclip_request_human_input` with `interactionKind:
"questions"`.
2. Send `payload: { version: 1, questionSet: ... }` with a required text
question and a required choice question.
3. The old API rejects the missing compatibility questions. With this
change, it stores both questions and preserves the canonical form.
4. Retry with the same idempotency key. Confirm that only one
interaction exists.
5. Submit both answers. Confirm that the normal resolver and
continuation rules apply.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The branch is based on `cf8ad63c8`. The problem affects the native
Runner and the interaction creation API.

**Deployment mode**

Server deployment with the native Paperclip Runner. Integration tests
use the real interaction service and an embedded test database.

## What Changed

- Add one shared canonical-to-storage projection. Reuse it for native
harness question requests.
- Accept canonical-only question creation at the shared validator and
server boundary.
- Export the input type and update the plugin SDK and its RPC contract.
- Advertise a typed, complete question form in the live and scenario
tool schemas.
- Enforce canonical text and custom-answer constraints before ordinary
or native resolution. Preserve harmless display whitespace.
- Run regex matching in isolated workers with a deadline and resource
limits. Both answer paths await the result before persistence. Saved
native delivery uses the validated answer without taking another worker
slot.
- Update agent guidance and generated Runner contracts.
- Test mixed forms, option-ID collisions, retries, answers, legacy
requests, and conflicting forms.

## Verification

- Interaction service, HTTP route, native bridge, and Runner authority
suites: 221 tests passed after correcting an obsolete tool-description
assertion.
- Shared validator, plugin SDK, CLI, and UI compatibility suites: 67
tests passed.
- Runner core tool-contract suite: 20 tests passed. AJV validates live
and scenario schemas.
- Final review regressions: 172 shared, service, native bridge, and
authority tests passed. These cover text length, pattern, numeric
limits, whitespace, custom option IDs, and historical pending cards.
- Runner session suites: 67 tests passed. Published example tests: 4
tests passed.
- Server typecheck and the shared/server builds passed after the
compatibility fixes.
- Final delivery verification: 35 response-delivery tests passed. The
native delivery regression proves saved answers do not enter pattern
workers; server typecheck and build passed.
- Pattern security and answer-flow verification: 205 tests passed after
repairing the child fixture loader. These cover pathological matching,
event-loop responsiveness, worker concurrency, slot cleanup, HTTP
routes, native delivery, and the full helper in a child process.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed on the bounded-worker revision.
- `pnpm build` passed on the bounded-worker revision.
- All 55 GitHub checks passed on `fe457af`; four optional jobs were
skipped. An unchanged Cursor adapter test timed out once in CI, passed
locally, and passed on one failed-job rerun.
- Reviewers can send the canonical-only mixed form above and verify that
the saved interaction contains both canonical and compatibility
questions.

## Risks

- The creation API accepts a new input shape. Stored rows and answer
contracts keep the existing shape.
- The shared projection must preserve synthetic free-text option IDs.
Collision and native round-trip tests cover this behavior.
- Historical partial rows remain readable. New conflicting dual forms,
including written-answer mismatches, remain rejected.
- Existing pending cards retain the written-answer paths offered by
their stored options. Canonical text constraints still apply.
- Ordinary answers now enforce declared canonical constraints before
persistence. Invalid answers leave the card pending.
- Regex validation has a one-second deadline and a four-worker capacity
limit. A complex pattern or capacity error leaves the card pending with
a validation error.
- No database migration or change to company authorization is required.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex. The session exposes the GPT-6 model
family; its exact runtime model identifier and context window size are
not exposed. Used reasoning, tool use, and code execution.

DottaandPaperclip d0b67bfe71 feat: queue approvals and answers during active runs (#13539)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Users guide running agents through messages, questions, and approval
cards.
> - Messages already wait in a queue when an agent is running.
> - Card responses did not appear in that queue. Some question answers
also steered a later run without a user click.
> - A fast approval could invalidate the agent's review handoff and
cause it to stop its own run.
> - This pull request gives card responses the same queue controls and
preserves the exact response during delivery.
> - Users can wait for completion or explicitly send the response with
Interrupt or Steer.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13517, which is merged. This PR targets master and adds queued
interaction responses on top of the onboarding changes. Related
continuation work: #10519 and #12866.

**What happened?**

Accepting a proposal while its source run was active left a saved
response outside the message queue. The agent could then lose its review
path, reassign the task, and cancel itself. Answers to older questions
could also steer another active turn without a click.

**Expected behavior**

Save the response immediately. Queue its continuation behind the active
run. Deliver it after completion, or when the user explicitly chooses
Interrupt or Steer. Preserve approval revisions and answer choices.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Let an agent publish a confirmation card while its run is still
active.
2. Accept the card before the agent finishes its review handoff.
3. Inspect the message queue and the task's next run.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on da8a3876c with the onboarding changes from #13517.

**Deployment mode**

Local development from source. The fix covers legacy adapters and native
Runner turns.

## What Changed

- Project resolved cards into the existing queue as immutable responses.
Keep answers and exact approval revisions.
- Require an explicit click to steer a response into a compatible native
turn. Use Interrupt when a fresh session is required.
- Preserve typed response context through interruption, cleanup waits,
and normal queue promotion. Keep the direct answer channel for a
provider blocked on its original question request.
- Accept the source run's review handoff after its card resolves. Reject
stale agent reassignment that would orphan a queued response.
- Add deterministic regression tests and an `accept-while-running` case
to the first-task suite. Require recorded timestamp overlap before that
case can pass.
- Keep the first-task skill name out of user-facing messages.

## Verification

- Red-green: the original route failed the queue regression; the changed
route passes it.
- Focused server/UI tests: 139 passed, including 64 queue-route tests.
- Runner harness unit tests: 314 passed.
- Server, UI, and Runner E2E typechecks passed. UI token gates passed.
- Full repository typecheck and build passed. Server typecheck passed
again after review fixes.
- Review regressions: 165 queue/reopen route tests, 53 wake admission
tests, and 18 run identity tests passed. Approval acknowledgement
recovery and both message/approval arrival orders are covered.
- Full local test run: 12,401 passed; three new admission regressions
ran against a cached pre-fix module. A fresh run of that entire suite
passed (53 tests). The complete CI suite passed on the final commit.
- Previous-head CI at `c28e2ef12`: 32 checks passed and 2 optional
Storybook checks skipped. Every server/workspace/browser shard, Runner
verification, build, typecheck/release registry, canary, policy, and
security check passed. Greptile: 5/5, no unresolved threads. Earlier
interrupted CI workers were replaced by this fresh complete run.
- After integrating the updated parent: 314 harness tests, 119
queue/admission tests, 44 onboarding/question-delivery tests, and 13
native recovery tests passed locally. Full repository typecheck and
build passed.
- Clarified the skill wording preference: routine replies describe the
action without announcing the internal skill; direct questions and
permission/security/execution disclosures remain truthful.
- The paid `accept-while-running` scenario is registered for all four
local first-task profiles. It has not been run against a model in this
change.

- Rebased onto the merged parent at `11921075a`; the resulting tree
exactly matches the locally verified integration tree. Final-head CI on
`b53054807` passed: 54 successful checks, 2 optional Storybook checks
skipped, no failed checks. Every new server/browser shard, aggregate
verify/e2e gate, Runner, typecheck, build, canary, and security check
passed on the first attempt. Greptile reviewed this exact head at 5/5
with no unresolved threads.

## Risks

- Responses now wait instead of implicitly steering another active turn.
A provider blocked on the original question still receives its answer
directly.
- Approval receipts cannot be edited, discarded, or reordered as
comments. This preserves the recorded decision.
- Interruption must still prove that the prior execution stopped. The
tests cover cleanup waits and duplicate delivery.
- The new paid overlap case can be unexercised if the model finishes
before the click lands. It cannot pass without evidence of overlap.
- No database migration is required. This repairs the existing approvals
and execution controls; it does not implement the roadmap's work-stream
queues.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex. The exact deployed model ID and
context-window size were not exposed in this session. Capabilities used:
agentic reasoning, repository inspection, code editing, terminal
commands, and test execution.

DottaandPaperclip 889947c238 feat: add experimental native chat connectors (#13038)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - People also ask agents for work in their existing chat tools.
> - Each external conversation needs one task and a current authorized
source.
> - Retries, Stop, and provider failures must not duplicate work or
expose private data.
> - The first chat PR establishes the opt-in provider and data
contracts.
> - This PR adds experimental channel integration and its durable
control plane.
> - Users can request work from connected channels and inspect delivery
in Paperclip.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13100 and #13092. This is the second of exactly two chat PRs.
Foundation #13100 is merged and changed 143 files. Runner prerequisite
#13092 is also merged. This PR changes 400 files against master, below
the 500-file review limit. It contains no wireframe images or HTML
galleries.

## What Changed

- Add native Slack, GitHub, Microsoft Teams, Telegram, and Discord chat
connections. Keep chat disabled unless the operator enables experimental
chat connectors. Preserve the production GitHub tool connection and its
normal setup path.
- Bind each provider bot identity to one immutable Paperclip agent. Bind
each admitted external conversation to one task. Paperclip owns tasks,
runs, permissions, and audit records.
- Add durable admission, per-conversation queues, questions, task
controls, progress, final replies, images, files, and delivery receipts.
Board comments remain internal unless explicitly sent to the channel.
- Check current identity, provider reach, resource access, credentials,
runtime generation, and exact source before provider effects. Keep
private responses private. Never send raw reasoning, private logs,
credentials, or tool arguments.
- Hold uncertain sends for explicit audited resolution. Make Board
Send-to-channel atomic and idempotent. Keep reconnect and setup
credentials in Paperclip secret storage.
- Preserve current native-runner authority across retries, lost
acknowledgements, and recovery. Keep immutable input and completion
contracts separate from newer user input. Receipt reconciliation cannot
launch a provider.
- Reconcile chat close/new ordering and provider-effect lock order.
Audit resource access changes in the same transaction. Submit only the
selected resource from each UI toggle so stale pages cannot undo
unrelated access changes.
- Drain Codex stdout before certifying process exit. Bound the drain
with the existing shutdown grace. Preserve observed terminal authority
without treating an undrained process as successful or reusable.
- Incorporate master `018ca5da` with its ACP Stop, mobile task layout,
runner packaging, and official lock changes. Preserve dedicated
chat-answer continuations in both directions when ordinary queued
comments are adopted after Stop.
- Fence late adapter readiness behind an earlier Stop for the same run.
Preserve verified cleanup for registered adapters. Handle single Stop,
agent pause, duplicate Stops, and failure release without creating a
false cancellation receipt.
- Incorporate master's `6dd48cad4` wake-queue extraction. Preserve exact
failed-chat retry authorization and lineage, retired question-source
suppression, and the block on generic recovery that would discard the
admitted source. Fresh deferred input retains its separate promotion
path.
- Incorporate master `2a05b5ed3` and its queue-admission extraction,
simplified transaction ports, and separate runner CI job. Preserve exact
durable receipts, actor separation, and dedicated-answer isolation
through the new module. A failed receipt insert rolls back the
accompanying deferred-wake merge.

## Verification

Current head: `afe19299d06253cb628eb398e91d1200ea9f412a`, incorporating
master `2a05b5ed3457ea33efd6895520447d1d97fe98d8`. The conflicts are
resolved. This successor fixes two test-harness boundaries exposed by
CI: per-case route-module preparation and actual durable-save completion
before intentional runner termination. Production code and all existing
test/turn deadlines are unchanged. [Exact-head Greptile
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/13038#issuecomment-5587250594)
is **5/5**, completed September 10 at 13:20:55 UTC, with no actionable
findings or open review threads. [Fresh exact-head
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34481724341)
passes **all 24 jobs**, including Build and both required aggregates.
Normal exact-head guarded merge was attempted and rejected by the
remaining branch approval policy: CODEOWNER review is required and no
human approval is present. Normal **squash auto-merge is enabled** as of
September 10 at 13:36:26 UTC. Requested CODEOWNERS have been notified;
no approval bypass or self-approval was used. Earlier-head results below
remain historical evidence, not qualification of this successor.

- Final exact-head Linux evidence: 995/995 chat integration cases; 36/36
agent-skills routes; 35/35 runner live-session cases, including real
process kill/resume; 1948 runner Vitest cases with three existing
benchmark/platform guards; 870/870 API-authority cases; and 104 browser
cases with four existing optional skips. Rust, conformance/replay, full
repository build, typecheck, canary, all server/workspace shards, and
both required aggregates pass with normal CI concurrency. Earlier failed
attempts remain recorded below.

- Latest test-only qualification: 141/141
route/permissions/authentication cases pass in separate cold forks, with
plain server types and independent review clear. The real-runner suite
passes 35/35, with plain runner types and independent review clear. A
controlled premature-save acknowledgement fails as expected; matching
ownership/effect/process evidence, rejected saves, real turn outcome,
test abort, and pre-kill liveness are covered. No local reproduction of
the original CI scheduling failure is claimed. The preceding [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34479680858)
passes 21/24 jobs, including all 995 Linux chat cases and browser
aggregate (104 passed, four existing optional skips); only Build, the
skills serialized shard, and the required verification aggregate fail.
Its exact-head Greptile review was 5/5. Both failed job logs are
retained.

- Final fixture qualification: all eight focused Discord cases and all
995 chat integration cases pass. The exact modal statement/PID is
observed before taking the real connection lock; the test then proves
its actual blocking relationship before mutation. Original SQL
execution, provider behavior, negative assertions, and 1s/15s timeouts
remain unchanged. Independent review is clear and test/production hashes
remain frozen. The preceding [CI
attempt](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34477184777)
passed 22 jobs, including Build/runner, typecheck, canary, all other
test shards, and browser aggregate (104 passed, four existing optional
skips); the two fixture failures and failed verification aggregate
remain recorded, not relabeled as a pass.

- Current queue-module composition: 308/308 recovery/batching/queue/Stop
tests; 995/995 full chat integration; 89/89 module tests, including real
PostgreSQL receipt-insert rollback; 24/24 workflow/module-boundary
tests; plain server and UI types. All four actual local process/ACP
browser paths pass in 1.4 minutes. Fresh databases, no skips or retries,
stable reviewed source hashes. The initial boundary failure is retained;
its no-op service wrapper was removed without changing recovery context
or weakening the check. An exploratory standalone test-directory
typecheck fails because its new upstream transformation config is not a
standalone typechecking project; standard CI/build does not invoke it,
and no configuration was weakened to suppress those diagnostics.

- The preceding head `e02a63d462ce5d47433b0aeb632bb6fd20aab1ba` passed
[all 24 CI
jobs](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34436462958)
and exact-head Greptile review at 5/5. Required CODEOWNER review
prevented its normal merge before master advanced again.

- Final extracted-module composition: 307/307 recovery, batching, queue
and Stop-control tests; 995/995 full chat integration; 49/49 module
tests including eight PostgreSQL adapter cases; and 19/19 issue-update
tests. Plain server types pass. All four actual local process/ACP
browser paths pass in 1.3 minutes. Fresh databases, no skips or retries
in these cohorts, frozen source hashes, and independent review clear.

- The preceding head `3e4e1c1c` passes [all PR CI
jobs](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34415826820),
including Build and required `ci / verify` and `ci / e2e`. Both the
original Rust failure and the previously load-sensitive lineage fixture
pass with unchanged Linux concurrency. Master advanced afterward and
required this reconciliation.
- Final master composition: 448/448 focused UI tests, 186/186 adapter
tests, 24/24 queue/control tests, and 11/11 packaging tests. Plain UI,
server, shared, and adapter types pass. Token gates and diff checks
pass. Independent server and UI reviews are clear.
- Stop-registration regression: both real-service cases fail against
exact `a95` source and pass with the fix. The full corrected
recovery/control suite passes 265/265. Duplicate-owner and failed-Stop
controls also pass. Plain server types pass. The readiness barrier
prevents provider startup without adding an acknowledgment to an already
terminal run.
- Final qualification strengthens terminal-field equality and repeats
both affected cases successfully on a fresh database. All four actual
local process/ACP browser paths pass again in 1.3 minutes, without skips
or retries. The final screenshot shows Cancelled, a paused subtree,
retained input, and no error toast.
- Two new actual-service regressions fail before the merge fix. They
prove that queued-comment adoption could consume a dedicated chat answer
or add unrelated input to that answer. The fixed four-case cohort
passes, including ordinary upstream continuation and adapter Stop
controls. Full recovery passes 257/257. All four actual local
process/ACP Stop browser flows pass in 1.4 minutes, without skips or
retries, on a fresh database.
- The unchanged runner artifact was qualified with 171/171 transport
tests, 870/870 API-authority tests, conformance 1/1, and replay 11/11.
Six controlled reader tests prove the exit/drain repair. Its local
serial Rust workspace passed 546 top-level cases plus two invoked
helpers; the later passing Linux CI supplies default-concurrency
evidence.
- Prior exact-source full chat integration passes 995/995. Settings
regressions cover concurrent stale pages, 501 destinations, pending
state, rejected updates, and explicit retry. These deterministic tests
do not prove live provider behavior.
- Retained failed attempts and their causes are in the [qualification
log](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/afe19299d06253cb628eb398e91d1200ea9f412a/doc/plans/chat-adapters/2026-09-08-chat-queue-and-webhook-repair.md).
The first merge adapter run timed out while macOS slept for 290 seconds.
Its unchanged repeat passed with a temporary sleep guard. No assertion,
deadline, or CI gate was weakened.

Review commands include `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest
run src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts
src/__tests__/issue-queued-comments-routes.test.ts` and `pnpm exec
playwright test --config tests/e2e/playwright.config.ts
tests/e2e/acp-stop-continuation.spec.ts`. Database suites require fresh
disposable databases. See the [browser
runbook](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/afe19299d06253cb628eb398e91d1200ea9f412a/doc/plans/chat-adapters/2026-09-04-chat-adapters-browser-e2e-runbook.md)
for provider setup and separate live acceptance steps.

## Risks

- This remains experimental. Deterministic tests and bounded live
evidence do not establish every provider feature, tenant, permission
layout, or media shape. Teams work-tenant qualification is still open.
- Failed and uncertain provider effects remain visible and can require
operator action. A transport receipt does not prove recipient
visibility.
- Native controller and runner artifacts must remain compatible.
Preserve lease ownership, terminal authority, source binding, and
quarantine during future changes.
- Access and audit rows commit together, but activity notifications
remain best-effort. This is not a new durable event outbox.
- The PR operation does not deploy a live server, replace its runner, or
change provider permissions. Remaining live qualification is documented
in the [temporary
handoff](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/afe19299d06253cb628eb398e91d1200ea9f412a/doc/plans/chat-adapters/2026-09-08-open-qualification-followups.md).

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex assisted with implementation, tool execution, testing, and
review. The work records `gpt-6-astra` assistance. The environment does
not report a context-window size. No private reasoning traces are
included.

Dotta bc9ba7cd26 feat(runner): project native runs into task threads (#12321)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The experimental Paperclip Runner can execute a guarded Codex run
and persist provider-neutral events.
> - The task page still reads direct-adapter transcripts and cannot
present those native events.
> - Structured runner questions must also use the existing task
interaction experience.
> - Runtime selection must use the persisted run mode, not an adapter
name or a current feature flag.
> - This pull request projects native events and questions into the
existing task thread.
> - Direct adapters keep their existing transcript, composer,
interaction, and finalization paths.
> - The benefit is a complete native Codex task thread without a
behavior change for existing adapters.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #12202. This pull request replaces that stale implementation on
current `master`.

**What happened?**

The server persists native runner events and structured input requests.
The task page only consumes direct-adapter transcripts. A native run
therefore cannot present a complete transcript, usage, or question flow
through the normal task experience.

**Expected behavior**

Native runs project persisted provider-neutral events into the existing
task thread. Native structured questions use the existing interaction
card. Direct adapters retain their current behavior.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Enable the experimental runner.
2. Start a native Codex run that emits progress, usage, a structured
question, and a final reply.
3. Open the task page.
4. Observe that the direct-adapter transcript path cannot project the
native event records.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`master` at `67f9867bc`.

## What Changed

- Add the canonical structured-question validator and shared contract
exports.
- Materialize native input requests as existing task interactions.
- Validate native answers and deliver them through the durable
question-response receipt.
- Resume the original PRP request with an idempotent `request.resolve`
command.
- Project native messages, tool activity, cumulative usage, and final
replies into the existing transcript model.
- Propagate persisted `runtimeMode` to the task page and select native
handling only for `runtimeMode: "native"`.
- Expire pending interactions through the shared issue service on every
terminal transition, including decisions, stalled reviews, tree control,
and pipeline retry cleanup.
- Queue native run cancellation while a transaction is open and execute
it only after the owning transaction commits.
- Keep nonterminal and non-runner issue paths on their existing service
call shapes and behavior.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` — passed, including the
Rust runner release build and protocol/catalog drift gates.
- Focused native-thread and lifecycle suites — 18 files and 481 tests
passed during review.
- `issue-execution-policy-routes.test.ts` — 19/19 passed after the final
transactional-queue expectation update.
- `issue-agent-mutation-ownership-routes.test.ts` — 87/87 passed in the
final isolated compatibility rerun.
- GitHub Actions — policy, build, canary, typecheck/release registry, 5
serialized server shards, 8 general-test shards, 3 browser shards, and
both aggregate gates passed on `7793f3193`.
- Security — Snyk, Socket Project Report, Socket PR Alerts, and
Superagent passed.
- Greptile — 5/5 on `7793f3193`; all actionable review threads resolved.
- `git diff --check` — passed.
- Diff against `master`: 44 files.

## Compatibility Boundary

- Native transcript polling only runs when the persisted run reports
`runtimeMode: "native"`.
- Missing or legacy runtime modes continue through
`useLiveRunTranscripts`.
- Legacy questions keep the existing optional free-text choice.
- Native closed select sets can suppress that legacy fallback.
- Terminal cleanup uses the same issue service for native and legacy
interactions; only a bound native question schedules a native run
cancellation.
- Native cancellation happens after transaction commit, so failed or
rolled-back writes do not cancel a still-valid run.
- The durable delivery service checks the original native request before
it considers a continuation run.
- This pull request adds no migration, dependency, workflow, manifest,
or lockfile change.

## Risks

The main risk is routing a direct-adapter task through native handling
or changing terminal issue behavior. The implementation selects the
native path only from persisted runtime facts, retains the existing
nonterminal call shape, and schedules native cancellation only for a
validated bound native question after commit. Focused and
repository-wide tests cover both paths. Native requests remain bound to
the company, issue, run, and agent; answers are validated, durable, and
idempotent across reconnects.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 666f5a6e69 fix(server): make the wake-claim lease test deterministic (#12331)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The server test suite checks question response delivery and wake
claims
> - One test used wall-clock time and could start a second delivery
under load
> - The second delivery reused one promise resolver and could hang for
15 seconds
> - This pull request uses the injected clock and one resolver for each
wakeup
> - The benefit is a deterministic test that fails at once if a second
wakeup occurs

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

The wake-claim lease test slept for 70 milliseconds before it ran the
pending sweep. Under load, the lease could look stale during that
interval. The sweep then started a second delivery. The second delivery
reused one promise resolver, so the test hung until the 15-second suite
timeout.

**Expected behavior**

The test must control the time used by the service. One wakeup must use
one resolver. An unexpected second wakeup must fail at once.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run the question response delivery test under CPU load.
2. Let the test sleep before the pending sweep.
3. Observe that a second delivery can start and the test can reach the
15-second timeout.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Commit `0dd735e53a5cc9f6d3395834b826dfb0b1da2ea9`.

**Deployment mode**

Built from source with the server test suite.

**Installation method**

Built from source.

**Agent adapter(s) involved**

Not adapter-specific (core test issue).

**Database mode**

Not database-related.

**Additional context**

The change affects one test file. It does not change production source
code.

## What Changed

- Drive the test with the service's injected clock.
- Give each wakeup call its own promise resolver.
- Assert that lease renewal advances the last attempt time.
- Assert that the wakeup runs one time and the attempt count stays at 1.

## Verification

- Run `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/services/__tests__/question-response-delivery.test.ts`.
- The changed file reports 29 passing tests.
- Run the changed file 25 times, including 5 runs under CPU load.

## Risks

Low risk. The change affects one test file and test setup only. It does
not change production behavior.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-5, exact runtime model ID supplied by the Paperclip agent
environment, tool use and code review assistance.

Dotta 67f9867bc6 fix(interactions): deliver question answers durably (#12307)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents can pause a task and ask the user structured questions.
> - The answer is durable in the issue interaction, but delivery to the
next run is not durable.
> - A process restart can therefore leave an answered interaction
without a continuation attempt.
> - Native runners also need a provider-neutral question contract before
the task page can consume native events safely.
> - This pull request adds a content-free delivery outbox and an
optional native steering seam.
> - Direct adapters keep their existing heartbeat continuation path.
> - The benefit is reliable answer delivery without changing runtime
selection or task-page behavior.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #12202. This pull request replaces the question-delivery foundation
from that stale task-thread pull request. The task-thread projection
will follow in a smaller pull request.

**What happened?**

Question answers were stored in the issue interaction. The server then
made one in-memory continuation wake. A server stop between those
operations could leave the answer stored but not delivered. The combined
native task-thread pull request also made this behavior hard to review
separately from UI changes.

**Expected behavior**

The answer and its delivery receipt must commit in one transaction. The
server must retry pending receipts after a restart. Existing direct
adapters must keep the current wake path. A native runtime may use the
optional steering seam, but this pull request does not enable native
steering in production.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create an `ask_user_questions` interaction.
2. Answer the interaction.
3. Stop the server before the continuation wake completes.
4. Start the server again.
5. On current master, no durable record tells the server to retry the
answer delivery.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Current `master` at `4d82f5eae`.

## What Changed

- Add the `issue_question_response_deliveries` table and migration.
- Store only routing state, a correlation ID, and a payload digest in
the delivery row. The answer remains in the existing interaction result.
- Commit an answered interaction and its pending delivery row in one
transaction.
- Add bounded claims, retry recovery, cumulative terminal state, and
content-free activity records.
- Keep every built-in direct adapter and external adapter on the
existing heartbeat wake path.
- Add an optional native steering seam. No production caller supplies
that seam in this pull request.
- Retain the provider-neutral `paperclip.question_set.v1` presentation
on recovered interactions.
- Run delivery immediately after an answer and sweep pending rows at
startup and on the existing server interval.
- Add focused database, service, route, startup, adapter-matrix, digest,
and duplicate-delivery tests.

## Compatibility Boundary

- This pull request does not change adapter selection.
- This pull request does not start runnerd.
- This pull request does not create native run records.
- Direct adapters never call the native steering seam.
- The existing interaction result stays authoritative for answer
content.
- The migration is additive and does not rewrite existing rows.
- This pull request has no UI, dependency, workflow, package-manager, or
lockfile changes.
- The diff has 19 files.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/question-response-delivery.test.ts
server/src/services/issue-thread-interactions.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interaction-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts` — 4 files
and 120 tests passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` — passed for all applicable workspaces. This
includes Cargo format and check, protocol drift checks, and migration
safety.
- `pnpm build` — passed. This includes the Rust release binary, server
build, and UI production build.
- `git diff --check` — passed.
- Secret patterns were not present in the changed text files.
- The repository token gates currently report violations from unchanged
files on `master`. This pull request does not change those files.

## Risks

The main risk is routing a direct-adapter answer into a native session.
The service checks the persisted runtime mode, and the adapter matrix
proves that all direct adapters use only the existing wake path. The new
table is additive. It has foreign keys, unique correlation constraints,
bounded attempts, and status checks. Activity records omit question and
answer content.

## Model Used

deployment ID or context window. Agentic reasoning, tool use, and code
execution were enabled.
