7df517d18f perf(build): reuse a current Runner build in the server's prepare:runner-vendor step (#15926)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Its CI runs a `Build` job on every pull request. That job runs `pnpm
build` and then verifies the public npm install. Since the server test
shards got faster, `Build` is the slowest check in most runs (419-497s
on the six fully green `master` runs created 2026-10-11 19:46Z to
20:17Z).
> - Inside `pnpm build`, the server package is the last package to
build. Its first step, `prepare:runner-vendor`, runs the full build of
`@paperclipai/paperclip-runner` so the server can vendor
`packages/paperclip-runner/dist`. In `pnpm -r build` that package was
built seconds earlier by the same command. The second build took 12-16s
on those six runs and sits on the critical path of the job.
> - The step cannot just be removed. A standalone `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/server build` (the Dockerfile's path) must produce a
current vendored Runner on its own.
> - This pull request keeps that guarantee and skips only the build that
is provably redundant. The Runner's `build` records a digest of its
inputs, captured before its first step and confirmed after its last,
together with a manifest of every file it left under `dist`. The
server's `prepare:runner-vendor` reuses the build when the digest
matches, the stamp is for this platform, and every recorded output is
still there at its recorded size. Any other state runs the same full
Runner build as before.
> - The benefit is 12-16s off the `Build` job and off every other `pnpm
build` (the Canary Dry Run's `release.sh` build, local builds), with no
change to what a standalone server build produces. The PR's own first
run measured it: the server step reused the build in 56ms where `master`
runs rebuilt for 11-15s.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No GitHub issue exists for this. The description below follows the
enhancement template.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The server build's `prepare:runner-vendor` step, which builds
`@paperclipai/paperclip-runner` so the server can vendor its `dist`.

**Subsystem affected**

Build and CI (`server/package.json`,
`packages/paperclip-runner/package.json`, the `Build` job).

**Current behavior**

`prepare:runner-vendor` runs the Runner's full `build` every time.
Inside `pnpm -r build`, the Runner was already built by the same command
20 to 25 seconds earlier, with every check passing. On six fully green
`master` runs (2026-10-11, 19:46Z to 20:17Z) the repeated build took
11.8s to 15.9s, measured from the `server build$ pnpm run
prepare:runner-vendor` log line to the Runner's `Finished release
profile` line. The server package builds last, so that time is on the
critical path of `Build`, which is the slowest check in most pull
request runs.

**Proposed behavior**

- The Runner's `build` starts with `node scripts/record-build-inputs.mjs
--begin` and ends with `node scripts/record-build-inputs.mjs --finish`.
`--begin` removes the previous stamp and records a digest of every build
input before the first step reads anything. `--finish`, after every step
and check has passed, recomputes the digest and writes
`packages/paperclip-runner/node_modules/.cache/paperclip-runner-build-inputs.json`
only if the inputs are still the ones the build began with, together
with the path and size of every file under `dist`. A stamp therefore
exists only for a build that completed every step on inputs that did not
move while it ran.
- The server's `prepare:runner-vendor` becomes `node
scripts/prepare-runner-vendor.mjs`. It reuses the build if the stamp is
for this platform and architecture, every recorded output is still there
at its recorded size, and the recomputed digest matches. In every other
case it removes the stamp and runs `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/paperclip-runner build`, the exact command the step ran
before.
- `PAPERCLIP_RUNNER_VENDOR_REBUILD=1` forces the rebuild.

**Reason and benefit**

12-16s off the `Build` job and off every other `pnpm build` (the Canary
Dry Run's `release.sh` build, local builds), with no change to what a
standalone `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server build` produces.

**Breaking changes**

None. The rebuild path runs the same command as before. A fresh
checkout, a changed input, a missing or truncated output, an edit that
landed during the build, or a stamp from another platform always
rebuilds.

## What Changed

- `packages/paperclip-runner/scripts/build-inputs.mjs` (new): defines
the input set, the digest, the output manifest and the reuse decision.
Inputs are every file under `packages/paperclip-runner` except `dist`,
`dist-browser`, `runner/target`, `node_modules` and dot-directories;
every file under `packages/paperclip-eval-kernel` except `dist` and
`node_modules` (the Runner's `build:typescript` builds it first); every
file under the root `patches` directory (`check:acpx-profiles` hashes
`acpx@0.13.1.patch`, and `build-verified-provider-entrypoints.mjs`
copies the `pi-acp` and `brace-expansion` patches into
`dist/cli/pi-provision-inputs`); and the root `package.json`,
`pnpm-lock.yaml`, `pnpm-workspace.yaml` and `tsconfig.base.json`. The
toolchain pins are inside the package (`rust-toolchain.toml`,
`runner/Cargo.lock`) and the TypeScript version is in the lockfile, so
both are covered. A symlink is hashed as its target path and is not
followed. Outputs are every file under `dist`, the tree the server
copies wholesale, recorded with their sizes. Exports `beginRunnerBuild`,
`recordRunnerBuild` and `assessRunnerBuild` (returns `current` plus a
stable reason code: `no_stamp`, `schema_mismatch`, `platform_mismatch`,
`missing_output`, `outputs_changed`, `inputs_changed`,
`inputs_unchanged`).
- `packages/paperclip-runner/scripts/record-build-inputs.mjs` (new): the
two phases, `--begin` and `--finish`, added as the first and last step
of the Runner's `build` in `packages/paperclip-runner/package.json`.
Each build chain has its own pending record under
`node_modules/.cache/paperclip-runner-build-inputs.pending/`, named
after the shell pnpm runs the chain in (the parent of both phases;
`--finish` also accepts a record named after its own pid, for a shell
that execs the last command of the chain), so two Runner builds running
at once in one checkout do not consume each other's record. `--finish`
without a pending record for its chain is an error, so the chain cannot
silently lose its first step; `--finish` after an edit that landed
mid-build prints `not recorded: inputs changed while the build ran` and
leaves no stamp. Records of builds that never finished are pruned by the
next `--begin` after a day.
- `server/scripts/prepare-runner-vendor.mjs` (new): the reuse-or-rebuild
step. It resolves the pnpm that is running it through `npm_execpath`
with the same rule as the CLI's `resolvePnpmInstallInvocation` (a
JavaScript entry runs through this Node, a native executable runs
directly, otherwise `pnpm` on PATH). It prints one
`paperclip.runner-vendor.timing.v1` line with `action`, `reason`,
`check_ms` and `build_ms`, so the saving is measured on this PR's own
`Build` job.
- `server/package.json`: `prepare:runner-vendor` now runs that script.
The `build` and `typecheck` scripts are unchanged.
- `server/src/__tests__/server-package-build-script.test.ts`: pins the
new indirection and the command behind it (imported from the script, so
the Dockerfile's standalone path stays pinned), and a new test asserts
the Runner's `build` starts with `--begin`, ends with `--finish`, and
has exactly those two record steps.
- Tests: `packages/paperclip-runner/scripts/build-inputs.test.mjs`
(node:test, added to `test:typescript:prep`) and
`server/scripts/prepare-runner-vendor.test.mjs` (vitest, in the server
lane).
- `doc/DEVELOPING.md`: a "Reused Runner build in the server build"
section under Test Commands.

## Review findings on the first head, all fixed in
[2d57542](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/15926/commits/2d575425977f87b4612222d0a1961bc9cc5ba569)

Greptile scored the first head 2/5 with three P1 findings. All three
were valid.

| Finding | Fix |
| --- | --- |
| **Patch edits leave stale output.** The root patch files the build
reads were not in the digest. | Every file under the root `patches`
directory is an input. Tests assert the patches are in the input list
and that editing the pi-acp patch, the acpx patch, or adding a patch
changes the digest. |
| **Missing helpers pass the build.** Only four outputs were checked, so
a `dist` that lost `dist/cli/acpx-runtime-sidecar.cjs` still counted as
current. | `--finish` records the path and size of every file under
`dist`; reuse requires all of them intact and reports `outputs_changed`
naming the first missing or resized file. Schema bumped to
`paperclip.runner-build-inputs.v2` so an older stamp is rejected. Tests
cover a deleted helper, a truncated helper, and the server step
rebuilding on `outputs_changed`. |
| **New edits count as compiled.** The digest was hashed after the
build, so a source edited while `build:binary` ran was recorded as
compiled. | The build is bracketed: `--begin` captures the digest before
the first step, `--finish` compares after the last and writes nothing if
it moved. Tests cover the mid-build edit, the undisturbed build, and the
CLI in both orders. |

## Review finding on the second head, fixed in the third commit

Greptile scored the second head 4/5 with one P1, valid: two Runner
builds running at once in one checkout (server `build` beside
`typecheck`) shared one pending record, so the second `--begin`
overwrote it, the first `--finish` consumed it, and the second
`--finish` threw `no pending build inputs` after every step of its build
had passed. Reproduced on the second head's module: two
`beginRunnerBuild`, then the first `recordRunnerBuild` records and the
second throws.

| Finding | Fix |
| --- | --- |
| **Overlapping builds fail each other.** One pending file for every
build chain. | One record per chain, named after the shell pnpm runs the
chain in: `--begin` sees it as its parent, and so does `--finish`,
unless the shell execs the last command of the chain (bash can), in
which case `--finish` is that shell and finds the record under its own
pid. Pending records of builds that never finished are pruned after a
day. An edit between two overlapping starts leaves no stamp whichever
build finishes last: the build that began before the edit reports
`inputs_changed_during_build` and removes the stamp the other wrote, so
a stamp always means every build that wrote `dist` read the inputs it
names. Tests: both finishing orders with and without an edit, the
pruning, a `--finish` that cannot use another chain's record, and two
real `sh -c` chains (plus one under `bash`) held open at the same time,
both recording. On the real repo, two `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/paperclip-runner build` chains started 8s apart with a
cargo stand-in both recorded (`files=1223 outputs=1434`) and left the
pending directory empty. |

## Measured on this PR's runs

The `Build` job ran `pnpm build` from the branch, so both builds of the
Runner in that job used the new chain.

First head (c23faab, run 38175281058), against the four fully green
`master` runs created 20:41Z to 21:37Z the same evening:

| | PR run 38175281058 | `master`, four runs |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Runner build inside `pnpm -r build` | 55.3s | 47.3-62.0s |
| Server step `prepare:runner-vendor` |
`action:reuse,reason:inputs_unchanged,check_ms:56,build_ms:0` | full
Runner rebuild, 11.0-14.8s |
| Server package build | 29.7s | 32.3-43.5s |
| `pnpm build` step | 114s | 102-135s |
| `Build` job | 411s | 409-474s |

Second head (2d57542, run 38178686999), against the two fully green
`master` runs created in the same half hour (38178951607 and
38180574768):

| | PR run 38178686999 | `master`, two runs |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Runner build inside `pnpm -r build` | 53.9s (`begin:` 22:03:04,
`recorded:` 22:03:57, digest 460e02616081 over 1231 files and 1434
outputs) | 62.2s, 64.6s |
| Server step `prepare:runner-vendor` |
`action:reuse,reason:inputs_unchanged,check_ms:109,build_ms:0` | full
Runner rebuild, 14.5s, 15.2s |
| Server package build | 27.4s | 43.5s, 44.8s |
| `pnpm build` step | 106s | 91s, 95s to the Runner's end plus the rest;
127s, 135s in all |
| `Build` job | 405s | 461s, 479s |

The rebuild is gone from the server build on both heads, and the check
costs 56-109ms where `master` rebuilds for 11-15s; the rest of the
spread between runs is runner speed on the `runs-on` fleet. The third
commit changes nothing on the reuse path: it only changes where the
pending record lives between `--begin` and `--finish`.

## Verification

- `node --test packages/paperclip-runner/scripts/build-inputs.test.mjs`:
11 tests, three consecutive runs clean. Two builds at once in one
checkout each keep their own pending record and both record, in either
finishing order; with an edit between their starts the build that began
before it leaves no stamp whichever finishes last. A build's start
prunes records older than a day and no others. A `--finish` cannot use
another chain's record. Two chains run by separate `sh -c` shells at the
same time (and one under `bash`) both record and leave the pending
directory empty. The input set is exactly the sources, the eval kernel,
the root patches and the root config, and skips outputs and caches. The
output manifest lists every file under `dist` with its size and nothing
outside it. The digest is stable across reads, does not change when
`dist`, `dist-browser`, `node_modules`, `.vite` or `runner/target`
change, and does change for a Runner source, a Rust source, an
eval-kernel source, the pi-acp patch, the acpx patch, a new patch, the
lockfile, the base tsconfig, a new file and a rename. A symlink changes
the digest but its target's files are not read. A build is current only
with a matching v2 stamp, the same platform and architecture, the four
named outputs present, and every recorded output intact (a deleted or
truncated helper is `outputs_changed`; a file the build did not produce
may appear). An input edited between `--begin` and `--finish` leaves no
stamp and removes the pending record; the next build records normally.
`--finish` without `--begin`, or after a build that left a required
output missing, throws and leaves no stamp. The CLI brackets the build
for the package it is pointed at, reports a mid-build edit, and rejects
`--finish` first, both flags, neither flag, and unknown arguments.
- `vitest run scripts/prepare-runner-vendor.test.mjs
src/__tests__/server-package-build-script.test.ts` in `server/`: 21
tests. The decision reuses a current build, rebuilds a stale one, and
rebuilds a current one only when `PAPERCLIP_RUNNER_VENDOR_REBUILD=1`.
The pnpm resolver covers a JavaScript entry, a native executable, a
Windows executable, no `npm_execpath`, and npm's `npm_execpath`. With an
injected build command: a current stamp runs nothing and prints
`action:reuse`; changed inputs run the exact command from `server/` with
the stale stamp already removed; a lost
`dist/cli/acpx-runtime-sidecar.cjs` rebuilds with
`reason:outputs_changed`; a failing build returns its status and leaves
no stamp. End to end, the CLI with a stand-in `pnpm` on PATH that
brackets its build the way the real one does rebuilds on the first call,
reuses on the second, rebuilds after a source change, rebuilds after a
lost output, and reuses again. The guard test asserts
`prepare:runner-vendor` is the new script, the rebuild command is still
`pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner build`, the server build
still starts with the step, and the Runner's `build` starts with
`--begin` and ends with `--finish` with exactly two record steps; it
fails against the previous build script on its first assertion.
- Real repo, this checkout, with `cargo` and `pnpm` stand-ins on PATH
(no Rust toolchain here; the stand-in writes the one file
`stage-runner-binary.mjs` copies): `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/paperclip-runner build` ran the complete chain through the
real nested pnpm (every TypeScript step and check, the stand-in cargo,
the binary staging, the two binary-reading checks) and recorded
`files=1223 bytes=18735059 outputs=1434`; the stamp is 128 KB. `pnpm run
prepare:runner-vendor` in `server/` then printed
`action:reuse,reason:inputs_unchanged,check_ms:222,build_ms:0`.
Appending a newline to `patches/pi-acp@0.0.33.patch` made the assessment
`inputs_changed`; truncating or deleting
`dist/cli/acpx-runtime-sidecar.cjs` or
`dist/cli/opencode-app-server-proxy.cjs` made it `outputs_changed` in
1-5ms; restoring each made it current again. `--begin`, an edit to
`src/index.ts`, then `--finish` printed `not recorded: inputs changed
while the build ran` and left no stamp.
- The whole check on the real set (1223 inputs, 18 MB; 1434 outputs)
takes 165-227ms on this host and took 56ms on the CI runner; the output
manifest part is 1-5ms.
- Not run here: the real `cargo build`, and `pnpm build` end to end.
This PR's `Build` job runs `pnpm build` from the branch, so its log
carries the Runner's `begin:` and `recorded:` lines and the server
build's `paperclip.runner-vendor.timing.v1` line with the measured
result.

## Risks

- A build input outside the digest would let a stale Runner be vendored.
The digest covers the whole Runner package except its outputs, the eval
kernel the Runner builds first, the root patches, and the root files the
Runner's tsconfig and dependency graph read. The lockfile covers
dependency versions, and the pins inside the package cover the Rust
toolchain. An input missed here is a bug to fix by adding it to the set;
the fallback direction is always a rebuild, never a skip.
- The whole `patches` directory is an input, although the Runner build
reads three of its fourteen files. An edit to an unrelated patch
therefore costs one extra Runner rebuild, which is the safe direction
and avoids a hand-kept list of file names that could drift from the
scripts that read them.
- The stamp lives in `node_modules/.cache`, which pnpm does not manage
and `.gitignore` and `.dockerignore` already exclude. It is about 128 KB
with the output manifest. The Docker build has no stamp and no prior
Runner build, so it rebuilds exactly as before.
- A stamp is written only after the Runner's `build` passed every step
on inputs that did not change while it ran. The Runner's first step and
the prepare step both remove any existing stamp before a rebuild starts,
so a build that stops partway, or a build command that fails before its
first step, leaves no stamp.
- `node scripts/record-build-inputs.mjs --finish` on its own is an
error; the script is only meant to run as the two ends of the `build`
chain, and the guard test pins that.
- The pending record is keyed by the pid of the shell that runs the
chain. pnpm runs every script through a shell (`sh -c` on POSIX, `cmd`
on Windows), and both phases are children of that shell; a shell that
execs the last command of the chain is covered by matching the finishing
process's own pid too. A chain run some other way, with the two phases
under different parents, fails loudly at `--finish` rather than
recording. Two builds running at once still write the same `dist`, which
no stamp can make safe; what the record guarantees is that a stamp is
written only by a build whose own inputs did not move.
- The platform and architecture are part of the comparison, so a stamp
from another machine is never trusted; an older v1 stamp is rejected by
schema.
- The Typecheck job builds the Runner once, through this step, with no
prior `pnpm -r build`, so it gains nothing and loses nothing: there is
no stamp and it rebuilds as before.
- The step now spawns pnpm through `npm_execpath` instead of relying on
`pnpm` being on PATH, because under corepack the script shell has no
`pnpm`. Outside a pnpm script it still falls back to `pnpm` on PATH.

## Model Used

- Claude (Anthropic), model id `claude-fable-5-1` (Claude Fable 5.1),
extended thinking, with tool use (shell, file editing, GitHub CLI) in a

DottaandPaperclip db2f00947b fix(runner): include Claude ACP in the server package (#15912)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The server ships a copy of Paperclip Runner for native agent
execution.
> - The Claude ACP bridge is a runner dependency, but it was absent from
the server package.
> - The runner resolves this bridge dynamically, so the import-based
packaging check missed it.
> - A Claude session then failed before startup and showed a generic
connection error.
> - This pull request ships the qualified bridge and reports a missing
runtime with repair steps.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A server install with the vendored runner could not load
`@agentclientprotocol/claude-agent-acp/package.json`. The runtime test
suggested checking the model or provider connection. The task reported
an interrupted runner session.

**Expected behavior**

The server package includes its qualified Claude ACP runtime. A missing
bundled runtime reports an installation error and explains how to repair
it.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Use a server install with the vendored runner and no Claude ACP
bridge.
2. Select the Paperclip Runner ACP harness and the Claude provider.
3. Run the runtime test or open a session.
4. Observe a missing-module failure before Claude starts.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on `e733bddc45`. This branch is based on current master.

**Deployment mode**

Self-hosted server built from source.

Related: #15224 upgrades the Claude bridge. This PR fixes its omission
from the server package and keeps the current qualified version. A
future bridge upgrade must update the server pin too.

## What Changed

- Add Claude ACP `0.73.0` to the server dependencies and bundled
dependencies.
- Pin the qualified Claude SDK and bridge dependencies in the npm bundle
producer graph. Publish its native packages as consumer optional
dependencies instead of shipping the producer executable.
- Bind source-built vendored runners to the shared pnpm dependency store
while retaining the server manifest as the provider authority. Keep
published npm and self-rooted deployment roots unchanged.
- Include dynamically resolved Claude and Codex bridges in the vendor
dependency check.
- Preserve the missing-package category through the sidecar, Rust
transport, and native session executor. Stop automatic retries for this
installation failure.
- Show **Runtime missing** in the runtime test and task thread. Explain
the reinstall or rebuild, server restart, and runtime test steps.
- Add regression tests and document the repair procedure.

## Verification

- Red/green comparison with the production sidecar: the same
missing-package setup returns a raw require-stack error on the original
code and an actionable, non-retryable missing-runtime error on this
branch.
- The rebuilt server's vendored Claude installation probe passes using
the source-server authority selected by the launcher, without starting a
provider or making a model request.
- Focused server verification: 830 tests passed. Runner installation and
sidecar error tests: 83 passed, with 6 platform-specific skips.
Packaging tests: 28 passed. Rust transport tests: 7 passed.
- Source/deployment authority tests: 3 passed. Red/green packaging tests
include a Linux-produced Claude SDK bundle, actual npm pack, and closed
executable admission on Linux x64 and macOS ARM64/x64.
- Full UI suite: 8,113 tests passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed on the rebased branch.
- Full current-head CI passed, including all general and serialized test
lanes, Runner Rust/Vitest verification, typecheck, build, and all eight
e2e shards. Greptile reviewed `d6a2741834ff922956560f2f689382827bbaf9e0`
at 5/5 with no unresolved threads.
- Local full-suite limitation: an earlier parallel attempt hit Postgres
startup failures and timeouts; the affected server tests and a database
fixture passed in isolation. The subsequent serial `pnpm test:run` was
stopped while still running after complete CI passed. Focused local
tests, full UI tests, typecheck, and build completed as listed above.
- Token gates and `git diff --check` passed.

## Risks

- Bundling the Claude bridge increases the server package size. The
producer graph retains the qualified SDK version and existing isolation
patch. Native platform declarations move to the published server
manifest, while the runtime keeps its exact version, declared-slot,
no-follow, and executable digest checks.
- The new failure category is permanent. Operators must repair the
server installation before they retry the task.
- Existing failed runs retain their recorded error. The clearer message
applies to new runtime tests and runs.
- No database schema or migration changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex. The system reports the model family; the
exact deployment ID and context-window size are not exposed in this
session. Used reasoning, browser inspection, tool use, and code
execution.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 2dd9811e8b Own agent hiring and termination in a lifecycle module (#15631)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Agent creation, approval, pause, and termination change whether an
agent can work.
> - These changes currently use separate service and database paths.
> - Some agents need setup after their record exists and before their
harness can run.
> - This PR adds one module that owns those state changes and their
transactions.
> - The module records progress and retries incomplete work after a
server restart.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

A hire can become active before its execution environment is ready.
Direct agent state writes also bypass one common lifecycle boundary.
Termination does not have a durable step for resource cleanup.

**Proposed solution**

Use agent lifecycle commands for hiring, approval, pause, resume, and
termination. Keep proposed hires pending until approval. Prepare each
approved hire, test its saved harness configuration, and then permit
work. Wait for required plugin work before completing a step.

**Alternatives considered**

A general database commit hook would expose transaction details to
callers. A timer alone would delay each new hire. This module owns each
command transaction and starts its worker after commit. A periodic scan
recovers work after a process stops.

**Roadmap alignment**

This change adds the lifecycle boundary for the existing agent and
plugin systems. It does not add a user interface or a provider
implementation. It replaces the lifecycle delivery approach in #15391.
Related proposals include #11475 and #13099; this change does not add
their external executor protocols.

## What Changed

- Add durable approval, preparation, verification, pause, resume, stop,
and cleanup states.
- Keep agent creation, lifecycle state, configuration writes, and agent
record deletion behind `modules/agent-lifecycle`. Keep validation,
credential rules, reads, onboarding, invitations, general approvals, and
company data deletion in their services.
- Commit a hire before the remaining onboarding or invitation work.
Serialize requests with the existing dedicated database connection
helper. Reuse the hire after a failed attempt.
- Keep accepted work in the run queue during setup. Require execution
and cleanup evidence before completing pause or termination.
- Retain the original credential owner when approving migrated hires.
- Start lifecycle work after each command commits. Use database leases
and revision checks for retries and late results.
- Add a generic required plugin method and capability. Store the
required plugin IDs for each agent. Track host and plugin completion
separately.
- Keep harness verification and credential rules in services. Supply
their results to lifecycle through explicit ports. Reject failed logins
and incomplete probes.
- Remove reverse imports from lifecycle adapters into services. Share
record queries and validation below both layers.
- Use one hire decision path for agent IDs and approval IDs. Resolve the
approval and agent change in one transaction. Expose policy
reconciliation on the command object.
- Save configuration and verification invalidation through one module
operation. Ordinary commands own their transaction. Restrict the shared
transaction integration to its listed callers. Reject identity, company,
accounting, timestamp, and unknown fields.
- Require completed termination before deleting agent records. The
company deletion service calls the module through a separate deletion
interface.
- Save an approved secret before applying its agent binding. A failed
binding leaves the secret approved. A retry reuses it.
- Remove old permission and metadata export files. Move hire
configuration rules out of lifecycle persistence.
- Report failed worker steps and scans with operation context and known
error codes. Omit provider messages, stacks, and configuration values.
Document ordinary application use and extension rules.
- Recover expired native owners only after execution stops. Retry
cleanup of failed retained leases. Wait for setup in the live smoke
script.
- Keep manual, budget, and company pause reasons separate. Guard
execution status writes with the ready state.
- Add a migration, boundary checks, regression tests, and a lifecycle
guide. Keep the current UI.
- Limit periodic policy checks to 100 eligible agents per minute.
Continue from the last agent ID. Exclude pending hires and agents in
termination or a final state. Keep explicit company and budget updates
immediate.

## Verification

- Latest head `ccc3c86b0` aligns the shared status update schema with
the PATCH route. All 15 shared tests, 104 server route/OpenAPI tests, 2
CLI tests, and shared/server/CLI TypeScript checks pass. The Greptile
comment is fixed. CI is running; no new Apex review was requested for
this small fix.

- Rebase `75708ac94` rebases onto master at `2eb5187e4`. The backup test
uses the shared 90-second timeout from master; the older timeout commit
was removed. The affected backup test passes.
- Agent budget edits now pass the target agent ID through enforcement.
All 50 affected tests, server TypeScript, and 11 boundary tests pass.
Both configuration update paths have regression coverage. CI is running
on the latest head. No new Apex review was requested for these small
fixes.

- Rebase `9b568666a` preserves the run-control extraction and
delivery-work startup changes from master. All 559 affected tests,
server TypeScript, and 11 boundary tests pass. CI and Apex review are
running on the final head.
- The policy scan fix passes 56 lifecycle and diagnostic tests, 24
policy and caller tests, and 11 boundary tests. A regression test checks
the page limit, interval, excluded states, and cursor wraparound.

- Rebase `fd4698750` passes all 611 tests in eight affected lifecycle,
route, and heartbeat suites. Server TypeScript and all 11 module
boundary tests pass. The company deletion rollback and concurrent hire
tests are included.

- Follow-up `00aac7646` fixes the failed decision deletion test and the
public update schema. All 126 affected server tests, 8 shared tests, 2
CLI tests, and 11 boundary tests pass. Shared, server, CLI, and UI
TypeScript checks pass.

- Server TypeScript passes: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsc
--noEmit`.
- All 11 boundary tests pass: `node --test
scripts/check-module-boundaries.test.mjs`. The repository boundary scan
also passes.
- All 68 lifecycle, failure diagnostic, and harness verification tests
pass. Tests reject forbidden fields through the root command, combined
transition command, and restricted transaction integration. They also
check invalid fields returned by configuration preparation.
- Failure tests cover host work, plugin work, claims, renewals,
deferrals, and scans. Log tests check known error codes and exclusion of
private error contents.
- All 355 tests in 10 existing caller suites pass. These tests cover
secret approval, pairing, pending hires, credentials, company import,
built-in agents, managed agents, instructions, and skills.
- The branch is rebased onto `origin/master` at `2eb5187e4`. The queue
guards and cancellation lock fix use the extracted heartbeat queue.
Agent cancellation uses the extracted run-control file. The source diff
scan found no secrets or private URLs.
- Earlier checks cover approval retries, rollback, late verification
results, policy holds, deletion rollback, concurrent company deletion,
and queue admission during setup.
- Before the rebase, CI passed on `00aac7646` and Greptile Apex rated it
5/5 with no open comments. CI and a new Apex review are pending for the
rebased commit. The branch has no merge conflicts.
- The full local build and native Dot suite were not run. The host has
no Cargo. No live provider test was run.

## Risks

- Background policy recovery takes more than one minute when more than
100 agents are eligible. Explicit company and budget updates still
reconcile immediately.

- The restricted configuration integration keeps an agent reference and
its dependent records in one transaction. It cannot change a budget or
invoke a lifecycle transition. A periodic scan starts pending setup
after that transaction commits.
- Secret approval and binding use separate transactions. A failed
binding can leave an approved secret with no agent binding.
- New approved hires remain unavailable until setup and verification
complete. Existing clients see `paused` during these steps. This PR does
not change the UI.
- Migration `0320_daily_onslaught.sql` maps existing statuses and pause
reasons. It does not create external resources or claim that an existing
harness passed verification.
- Use a coordinated server update for this migration. Older server
versions can write legacy status without the new lifecycle checks.
- A failed onboarding or invitation request can leave a committed hire.
A retry reuses that hire and completes the remaining records.
- Deletion requires completed termination. Company deletion can require
another request while cleanup is pending.
- Required plugins must make repeated calls safe and reject older
revisions. A disabled or removed required plugin blocks completion until
it is restored.
- A new hire can run a second harness test after the existing UI test.
Some adapters can charge for this test.
- No live provider test was run. Provider implementation and resource
backfill remain separate work.

DottaandPaperclip fc6304dfe5 feat(runner): add experimental OpenAI Dot provider over MCP Events (#15402)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents, tasks, permissions, and execution
budgets.
> - Paperclip Runner gives each provider the same admitted task and tool
authority.
> - OpenAI Dot runs outside the local process tree and needs
asynchronous work delivery.
> - The merged MCP gateway supplies OAuth consent and signed event
delivery.
> - A personal assistant grant cannot safely stand in for an assigned
agent.
> - This pull request adds a separate Dot agent connection and a durable
Rust Runner bridge.
> - The operator can assign work to Dot and inspect its accepted work,
tool receipts, and result.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Agent or provider**

OpenAI Dot, as an experimental provider of the existing Paperclip Runner
adapter.

**Why this adapter is useful**

An operator can assign normal Paperclip tasks to an existing Dot. Dot
can read its mailbox, request work on an assigned task, use admitted
task tools, and submit a result. Paperclip keeps company scope,
checkout, approvals, known budget limits, and activity attribution.

**How the agent is invoked**

A dedicated `/mcp/runner` OAuth resource pairs one Dot grant with one
agent. A signed MCP mailbox event wakes Dot. Dot explicitly accepts the
assignment. The Rust Runner owns the durable turn and operation
receipts. The first release supports self-hosted instances with a local
Runner controller.

**Additional context**

This extends the merged public MCP gateway from #14846 and the assistant
invitation and device-consent work from #14933. This also integrates the
merged assistant tool and configuration expansion in #15380. Dot retains
its dedicated agent resource and cannot receive personal configuration
permission. The public assistant connection remains a personal
connection.

## What Changed

- Add a durable Rust Dot provider and its TypeScript Runner driver.
- Add closed PRP v3 external-provider operations and native execution
input v6.
- Add company-scoped pairing, mailbox, assignment, and operation
records.
- Reuse merged browser/device consent, client metadata verification,
webhook admissions, refresh, secret rotation, and warm-standby gates.
- Keep Dot scopes, issuer, grants, event workers, and tool access
separate from personal assistant access.
- Add Dot configuration, pairing, readiness, and consent UI. Keep agent
grants out of the personal Connections entry.
- Regenerate the Dot-only migration after master. Preserve published
gateway migrations. Make the new migration safe to reapply.
- Document setup, recovery, accounting limits, evidence, and remaining
account qualification.
- Reverify reconnect callbacks and wake outstanding work with a fresh
mailbox reference; preserve the existing assignment and operation
receipts.
- Clean up Dot bindings and waiting runs on OAuth revoke and
refresh-token replay. Old grants cannot revoke replacement bindings.
- Restore the pairing reference when an unsaved agent form is reopened;
document board-only pairing routes in OpenAPI.
- Accept a clean Rust exit after the acknowledged shutdown receipt.
Unexpected exits still require recovery.
- Clear the cached binding after a successful revoke so a failed
connection refresh cannot restore it.
- Add production-component Storybook states and screenshots for pairing
and connection review. All preview account data is synthetic.
- Persist normalized completion, serialize Dot turns and durable work
admission, and poll subscription readiness.
- Serialize mailbox writes and cursor reads; retain paused fence
acknowledgement without task authority.
- Authorize admitted review runs without changing the worker assignee.
Include the fenced assignment ID in production stop notices.

## Verification

- This PR integrates master `4a8178e9c`. Dot migration
`0317_messy_famine.sql` follows the published history and is safe to
reapply. The merge preserves the reserved migration connection,
batch-commit handling, private task checks, task monitors, and native
accounting.
- Local workspace typecheck, full build, and UI token gates pass. The
server typecheck passes after the review fixes. Database and native
executor regressions pass.
- All twelve real Rust/PostgreSQL Dot integration tests and twelve Dot
driver tests pass. The tests cover native document writing and
finalization, durable replay, queue admission, mailbox ordering,
admitted reviews, stale authority, production stop references, and
paused acknowledgements.
- Current head `d0e7e0626` passes all 57 checks: 53 pass and four are
intentionally skipped. This includes full typecheck, build, tests, Rust
Runner verification, browser E2E, release verification, and Canary Dry
Run. Greptile rates this exact head 5/5. All review threads are
resolved.
- The full local root test run is slower than the sharded CI run and has
not completed. The full CI test gates pass on the current commit.
Focused local regressions pass.
- Real-account pairing and event delivery on this base commit remain
unqualified. Live account and setup proof are recorded in the follow-up
#15414.

The following screenshots use synthetic preview data. They show the
production pairing component and do not qualify a real account or the
full agent setup journey.

![Synthetic connected
preview](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/codex/dot-events-prototype/doc/screenshots/openai-dot-runner/connected.jpg?raw=true)

## Risks

- This base adapter uses `PAPERCLIP_ENABLE_OPENAI_DOT=1` plus Public MCP
and Paperclip Runner. The separate experimental-settings follow-up in
#15414 replaces this environment flag with saved operator settings.
- Dot does not expose provider token usage or cost. The operator must
acknowledge external billing. Known Paperclip budget gates still apply.
- Cancellation fences Paperclip authority. It does not confirm that Dot
stopped all external activity.
- Assigned skill files and third-party MCP bindings are unsupported and
reject admission. There is no mounted workspace, model selector, or
provider thread identifier.
- Hosted agent-broker and remote controller deployments are not
qualified.
- The new migration follows the merged master history. Existing
prototype databases still need the normal master migration history
before this Dot-only migration.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6. The exact deployment ID and context window
size are not exposed in this session. Capabilities used: reasoning,
repository editing, code execution, and test inspection.

DottaandPaperclip 8cfedd7df8 fix(runner): restore task monitors and durable timed waits (#15446)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their task execution.
> - Agents need a durable way to return to work after a delayed check.
> - The issue monitor scheduler already provides a one-shot wake for an
assignee.
> - Native runners reject generic execution-policy writes and had no
bound monitor tool.
> - Scheduling alone is insufficient because native completion also
needs to accept a timed wait.
> - This pull request adds an authorized monitor tool and connects it to
completion and the existing scheduler.
> - An agent can now schedule its next check, end the run, and resume on
the same task.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A native runner could not set its own task monitor. `call_api` correctly
rejected execution-policy writes, while `schedule_wake` had no
production binding. `paperclip_finish` also rejected monitor waits.

**Expected behavior**

A standard native run can set a one-shot monitor on its current task or
another accessible task assigned to the same agent. After a confirmed
schedule on the current task, it can yield. The scheduler later delivers
`issue_monitor_due`.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a standard native task.
2. Ask the agent to check the task again later and end its current run.
3. Inspect available tools and try the generic issue execution-policy
update.
4. Observe the missing native tool and the lifecycle-write denial.

Related PRs: #14680 concerns monitor notes in the shared wake prompt.
#11919 changes attempt-limit scope. This PR adds native scheduling and
completion authority and retains the existing cumulative attempt bounds.
It does not depend on either PR.

## What Changed

- Add provider-neutral `set_task_monitor` with a default current-task
target, future timestamp, required notes, existing bounds, and explicit
clearing.
- Check company, task visibility, ownership, runtime permissions, work
mode, and active-run authority. Preserve review-only restrictions.
Reject the reserved server-owned quota-recovery name before saving or
accepting a native wait.
- Commit the monitor, audit event, and retry receipt together. Retry
receipts survive a successor run without re-arming cleared or consumed
timers.
- Permit `paperclip_finish` to yield to a persisted monitor. Recheck
ownership and the schedule when committing final disposition. Release
execution without an immediate continuation.
- Preserve due monitors during native execution. Fence wake admission
and consumption against replacement, clearing, reassignment, and
completion. Preserve unrelated review policy.
- Expose scheduled and consumed monitor instructions in task context.
Update provider schemas, Rust validation, generated contracts, and
execution documentation.
- Add an opt-in live Codex smoke script with isolated data and explicit
run/session/runner/process evidence.

## Verification

- Repository `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed after rebase.
Server typecheck passed again after review fixes. All CI test shards
pass on `3def77b1b`, including runner TypeScript/Rust, server,
serialized server, workspace, and browser tests. All CI gates are green,
including the canary dry run. Greptile is 5/5 on the same commit with
zero unresolved threads.
- The local monolithic `pnpm test:run`, started before the rebase, was
interrupted after current-head CI test coverage passed. It is not
counted as a standalone full-suite pass; the focused local regression
suites passed.
- Targeted server tests cover scheduling, replacement, clearing, policy
preservation, cumulative bounds, cross-run retries, permissions,
provider-neutral discovery, review restrictions, completion authority,
and scheduler/finalizer races.
- Runner contract/catalog/semantic tests and Rust terminal-tool tests
cover the new operation and monitor completion.
- Live Codex test passed twice (latest live run on `e0bcd63e6`) in a
temporary database and workspace, with a 300,000 ms warm window. First
run `67bd7709-c089-4d4a-9d2b-0d6b618a34b0` yielded at
`2026-10-07T13:15:03.274Z`. Second run
`97c323f9-595a-4cc5-a007-db5a2fbb937c` started at `13:15:30.952Z`,
received `issue_monitor_due`, and completed the same task. Exactly one
monitor wake was recorded.
- Both live runs used native session
`7b1dd753-1c9b-4e7a-b22f-a125dbc3748c`, runner
`e90d9a1b-3502-4ee3-b15e-edc024c555d4`, provider session
`01a11680-6d01-70c0-9a55-db7246ed66c3`, and PID `64218` with the same
process start time. This proves warm reuse for that local Codex test,
not only successful scheduling.
- Reproduce the paid live test with `node --import
./server/node_modules/tsx/dist/loader.mjs
server/scripts/smoke-native-task-monitor.ts --run`, with the installed
Codex binary on `PATH` and a valid local login.

## Risks

- The scheduler now defers monitor dispatch while the task has an active
native run. A stuck run still depends on the existing recovery
lifecycle.
- Idempotency uses the existing run ledger; no table or migration is
added.
- Other providers share the tested tool and completion contracts. Only
Codex received a live model test.
- Existing `call_api` lifecycle restrictions remain enforced. Monitor
waits do not bypass task blockers, reviews, or approvals.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with tool use, code execution, and
TypeScript/Rust editing. The session does not expose the exact deployed
model ID or context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip a6306ba606 feat(runner): consolidate Cursor production integration (#15075)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The native Runner keeps provider sessions under company authority,
approvals, budgets and durable recovery.
> - Cursor work was spread across candidate branches. The published
branch lacked later plan, permission and cleanup fixes.
> - Production also needs public installation and matching runtime
assets for local and Daytona execution.
> - This pull request consolidates Cursor onto current mainline recovery
behavior and completes that installation path.
> - The installed v11 release passed focused local and Daytona
qualification after the generic mode and lifecycle cleanup. The later
model-selection correction and current mainline merge produce v14
artifacts that need matching release qualification.
> - Cursor admission is enabled in source; publish only an artifact
combination with matching qualification. Native AskQuestion and complete
per-run dollar accounting remain excluded.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #14435, #14631, #14669, #14699, #14724.

This completes the Cursor implementation by @cryppadotta from combined
source `22c78242a4e0c2369fecf0c2dc4e7600fbad6706`. It preserves newer
mainline recovery, completion and warm-directory behavior. Pi and
Copilot remain gated.

## What Changed

- Generate named Rust and TypeScript ACPX release profiles from one
manifest. Share runtime pins with packaging and server verification.
Preserve vendor runtime versions; bind the updated ACPX patch to Cursor
profile v14 and reject stale generated declarations at build/typecheck.
- Remove ACPX model allowlists, including the former Codex and Pi
restrictions and the duplicate developer test-drive gate. Send any
explicit model ID unchanged to its provider and verify the effective
selection before prompting. The bundled ACPX package forwards unlisted
IDs, rejects mismatched acknowledgements, and restores the exact
selection after session load. It does not expand Cursor model aliases.
Provider rejection, mismatch, or missing model controls fails without a
fallback. Model examples live in evaluation fixtures, outside runtime
declarations.

- Add pinned Cursor execution, contained instructions, exact model
verification and Agent/Plan/Ask modes.
- Carry an opaque generic `mode` identifier in shared native execution,
sidecar, Rust and recovery contracts. The provider adapter owns
supported modes, defaults, native translation and acknowledgement.
- Keep native RPC recognition, accepted-plan interpretation and
permission evidence behind provider adapters. Shared settlement and
recovery verify normalized facts and their committed evidence.
- Replace the Cursor-only warm-attachment branch with a runner-owned
capability. Only Cursor opts into it. Move profile compatibility and
optional usage parsing into provider metadata and adapters.
- Write generic plan-wait receipts. Read exact historical Cursor
receipts through a separate compatibility decoder. Reject mixed formats
and preserve existing authority checks.
- Carry native plans, semantic questions, todos, child activity,
permission identities and partial usage diagnostics through the Runner.
- Preserve durable response delivery, cancellation, warm ownership and
process retirement.
- Finish accepted planning runs successfully. Keep their tasks open for
explicit direction. Acceptance does not start implementation.
- Ship `paperclipai runtime setup cursor` and its provisioner through
the public package. npm installation does not download Cursor. Setup
uses the OS account's closure-keyed cache so system-wide npm packages
can remain read-only. Run it as the Paperclip service account.
- Include Cursor in normal provider packs and Daytona images for macOS
ARM64/x64 and Linux x64.
- Reject stale release packs by source revision and current ACPX/Cursor
pins before assembly writes files. Verify current Cursor
version/profile/closure again at runtime.
- Ship all three daemon targets and the expected Linux image-pack
identity. A macOS controller uses its packaged Linux daemon for Daytona.
Image mismatches fail before provider launch.
- Use the vendored Runner boundary for installed readiness probes.
Verify the actual installed Cursor probe.
- Verify compiled public Daytona plugins and their release versions in
installed smokes.
- Record exact artifacts, the acceptance matrix, retained failures,
supported capabilities and rollback behavior in the [readiness
report](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/codex/cursor-production-readiness/doc/plans/2026-10-03-cursor-production-readiness.md).

## Verification

- Current head `f7ec5cc1f0e30c62a829c016ff2013a2a9d79037` merges
mainline `faa8e452c73bae5e044dd6379179a00106abb131`. It keeps Cursor
plan and cancellation guards alongside mainline historical-question
filtering. The evaluation catalog includes both Cursor and expanded
adapter accounting cases (683 total). Recursive typecheck, full build,
696 lifecycle/recovery tests, 45 fixture tests and fixture typecheck
passed. Current-head CI passed: 56 successful checks, one neutral and
four skipped. [Complete
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37557996535).
The fresh Base Greptile review is 5/5 on this exact head, with 304 files
reviewed, zero new comments and zero unresolved threads. The user
authorized overriding the CODEOWNER review gate after checks passed; no
failing checks are overridden. Prior results below retain their own head
identities.
- Corrective head `3d2b168366258036f6b6a6fccb382c49138cc601` fixes the
post-merge Apex finding. Automatic-review and new-evidence
reconciliation preserve pending child results and recheck delivery under
the status lock before completing. Account repair now excludes unrelated
secret consumers and requires the failed agent's identity. Regression
coverage includes the commit race, delivery statuses,
current-run/current-intent exclusions, repeated reconciliation, both
database reconciliation paths, and credential consumer boundaries. All
184 affected tests, server typecheck and server build passed.
Current-head Base Greptile review is 5/5, with 304 files reviewed, zero
new comments and zero unresolved threads. Current-head CI passed: 56
successful checks, one neutral and four skipped. [Complete
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37535994724).
This Base review is distinct from the earlier Apex review.
- Merge head `5957c257a` reconciles mainline `b508a05c4`. It preserves
both accepted-plan waits and pending-child-completion checks, current
provider selectors, task-creation response identities, and mainline ACPX
missing-file handling. The combined patch is bound to Cursor profile
v14; historical records keep their original identities.
- Merge head `5957c257a` passed recursive typecheck, full build, 43
installed ACPX/package contracts, 107 provider UI and plan/recovery
tests, 593 database-backed lifecycle tests, 49 profile/native contract
tests, 45 Product E2E fixture tests, fixture typecheck, token gates,
three provider-free browser task-creation cases, and Runner
conformance/replay checks. Its complete CI passed (55 successful checks,
one neutral and four skipped), while Apex returned 2/5 with a
child-delivery finding addressed below.
- The local full-suite attempt again failed the unchanged Git streaming
test (360-second timeout) and was stopped. The concurrent local Rust
attempt failed four unchanged Codex process/deadline tests; all four
passed serially without code changes in 7.29 seconds after removing the
competing test load. These failed commands are retained and are not
reported as full-suite passes; the fresh Linux CI runs are tracked
separately.
- The previous head `907bdb2a2778c7ffeb4a662a91460c9d1ddfc9c5` earned
Apex 5/5 with zero comments after fixing all three findings: per-user
install cache, stale release-pack rejection, and public Linux smoke
account/home handling. Its real built installer passed from read-only
public packages on macOS ARM64 and Linux x64. All 137 release-registry
checks and 64 ACPX package contracts passed. That review does not cover
this mainline reconciliation.
- Prior `beadd3654` passed the full CI matrix; its one unchanged chat
test failure and successful single retry remain in the [CI
history](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37521449327).
Historical results below remain attributed to their original builds.

- Fixture follow-up `dd59d7e82b103a88b7cbd7d2c38b612c0fbbff7a` removes
provider-specific model choices from generic offline ACPX tests. The
fake sidecar preserves the model and session identity selected at open
through suspension. Affected verification passed: 106 Rust tests and 73
TypeScript tests. This commit changes test code only; the
production-code checks below retain their recorded identities. Its CI
and Greptile review later passed; those results belong to that
historical head.
- Model-selection cleanup `9a070808b48960a41fdfd369ae0636b95af82459`:
252 focused Runner tests passed (six platform skips), covering all six
ACPX agents, native model acknowledgement, rejected selections,
installation integrity and recovery identity. The merged branch passed
recursive typecheck, full build, token gates, server admission (19
tests), and the Product E2E catalog (45 tests). The acceptance catalog
passed all four tests. The full Rust suite passed: 643 tests, 2 ignored.
It verifies sidecar acknowledgement of unlisted models and rejection of
model mismatches. The final commits only update Rust tests; production
sources match the verified build at
`65ec3279ac50185e3cda109b5cfd9b4f56105de0`. No new paid provider calls
were made.
- The merge preserves both Cursor and the new mainline public-MCP
fixture cases. Auto-merge remains disabled; the latest follow-up status
is recorded above. The local `pnpm test:run` attempt hit the unchanged
Git streaming test's 300-second timeout and was interrupted before
merging mainline. The broad Runner attempt found obsolete single-model
assertions plus three macOS fixture-path failures caused by a
`/private/tmp` override. The assertions are corrected; affected
TypeScript checks passed with the standard macOS temporary directory,
and the complete Rust suite passed. Neither interrupted command is a
full-suite pass.
- Earlier declaration-cleanup head `6f4a5e9e2` passed recursive
typecheck, build, Rust and focused tests. Its CI later exposed a test
expecting duplicated Grok digest literals. The current source fixes that
assertion to compare launcher bytes with the shared manifest. Historical
successes and failed attempts are retained; no new live provider
qualification is claimed.
- Previous head `e75fde6098b0ddd8cec765bfb6ecaeecb88a26a6` passed
complete CI (56 successful checks, one neutral, four skipped) and
Greptile 5/5. [Historical complete
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37489112305).
Those results are not claimed for the cleanup head.
- Frozen live application: `d7b696f9b8f79095233e9e3d56d23e6a6018dd48`.
Public package version: `0.0.0-cursor-verify.3d0c9b7761c6`. The
declaration cleanup preserves release pins and does not relabel that
tested artifact as a build of the new source. Mainline through
`e34abee670` was reconciled while preserving accepted-plan waits,
provider-capacity handling, and both Cursor and public-MCP fixtures.
- Clean normal installation, explicit Cursor setup and daemon resolution
passed on macOS ARM64, macOS x64 under Rosetta, and Linux x64. npm
lifecycle hooks ran without silently downloading Cursor.
- Historical v11 live matrix: **18/18 passed with cleanup** (nine local,
nine Daytona) after the generic mode and lifecycle cleanup. The campaign
has 23 attempts; all five failures and their diagnoses remain recorded.
Exact case identities, hashes and limits are in the readiness report.
All provider calls are real, use the explicit Luna model and
company-bound credentials, and run without qualification or
runtime-asset overrides.
- The immutable Daytona image is
`ghcr.io/paperclipai/paperclip-daytona-runner@sha256:d6259b6bba094702c13fc2283bd85550849c1c53145b656fb2746778f9fa1747`.
The public Daytona plugin is installed independently and its version is
checked.
- Recursive typecheck, full build, token gates and Runner
contract/conformance/replay checks passed on the frozen application. Its
complete Linux CI suite passed. The duplicate local full-suite command
was incomplete after timing failures; affected repeats passed, but that
command is not reported as a clean pass.
- Qualification fixtures passed typecheck, 1,675 Vitest tests (one
skip), 128 Node checks, three provider-free browser tests, and 150
focused lifecycle tests after the final diagnostic correction. The
affected legacy Cursor command file also passed all five tests after
removing its shorter 10-second override; it now inherits the suite’s
standard 15-second timeout. Greptile is 5/5 on `e75fde609` with no
unresolved review threads. CI results above are recorded separately from
historical build results.

## Risks

- Cursor v14 includes the updated ACPX dependency patch and release
identity. The v11 live matrix and image below remain historical
evidence. They do not certify new v14 package/image artifacts.

- ACPX accepts models beyond the qualification fixtures. Availability
and entitlement depend on the provider. Successful configuration is not
a claim of live qualification for every model.
- Shared mode is an opaque identifier. Provider adapters own its
meaning. Incompatible historical sessions remain fenced; exact committed
plan waits and task history remain inspectable.
- Native AskQuestion is excluded. Paperclip semantic questions are
supported. Authoritative per-run dollar accounting is unavailable;
partial counters remain diagnostics and unknown cost is not zero.
- Image input, detailed native diffs, deeper child transcripts and
native plan-file export remain follow-ups.
- macOS x64 has clean-install and daemon-startup proof under Rosetta,
not a separate live campaign on Intel hardware.
- Release only the tested package/image combination. Merging this PR
does not publish npm packages or deploy that image. Later builds need
their own release verification. Rollback disables new Cursor admission
while preserving records and recovery inspection.
- A model can fail an exact instruction: one cancelled-plan attempt
returned the wrong summary marker despite correct cancellation. The
unchanged repeat passed; both results remain in the report.

> ROADMAP.md was checked. This completes existing native Runner/Cursor
work; it does not add an independent core feature proposal.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6. The exact serving variant and context window are
not exposed in this session. The agent used reasoning, repository
inspection, code execution, protocol tests and browser-backed Product
E2E tools. Cursor acceptance uses the explicit
`gpt-5.6-luna[context=272k,reasoning=medium,fast=false]` model. That is
the evaluated provider model.

DottaandPaperclip b508a05c43 feat: add internal agent complaints and suggestions (#15367)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents use legacy skills or native runner tools to work on tasks.
> - Those agents can encounter friction that does not belong in the task
thread.
> - A complaint should preserve the raw reaction. A suggestion should
describe an improvement.
> - This pull request adds attributed local storage and both submission
paths.
> - Agents can submit feedback once and continue their primary work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Server, database, shared contracts, runtime skills, and native runner
tools.

**Problem or motivation**

Agents have no default internal channel for incidental complaints and
suggestions. Sending this feedback through task comments adds noise and
can alter task workflows.

**Proposed solution**

Store free-form feedback in the current instance database. Derive agent,
run, company, and task attribution from active authority. Provide
default legacy skills and provider-neutral native actions. Keep the
instructions close to Warp's MIT-licensed originals.

**Alternatives considered**

Task comments and external Slack delivery add unwanted side effects.
Mandatory suggestion fields and short editorial limits would discard
useful feedback. This release has no listing API, UI, read tool,
automatic triage, or external forwarding.

**Roadmap alignment**

This is a maintainer-requested addition to the existing runtime skills
and runner tool paths. It does not duplicate a listed roadmap milestone.
Searches for complaint tooling, suggestion-box, and agent commentary
found no overlapping public PR or issue.

## What Changed

- Add the company-scoped `agent_commentary` table, shared validation,
and idempotent migration `0310`.
- Add one transactional service and the agent-only POST route. Validate
active authority before writes or replay. Redact known credentials.
Commit a content-free audit with each new record.
- Add `submit_complaint` and `submit_suggestion` to standard, ask, and
planning modes. Keep review, revocation, and completion restrictions.
Store replay identity on the commentary row.
- Mount `complain` and `suggestion-box` by default for legacy agents.
Bundle a dependency-free Node.js stdin helper in the operational skill
and allow its POST through the sandbox bridge.
- Preserve Warp's complaint voice and suggestion guidance, with
attribution and local transport adaptations. Keep source attribution and
MIT notices in each skill's LICENSE, outside runtime instructions.
- Document custom-runtime HTTP use and database inspection. Add
real-database tests and a repeatable live Codex smoke for local and
Daytona execution.
- Pin the lagging-source migration fixture before the identity-repair
migration so later migrations preserve its regression coverage.

## Verification

- Personally ran real Codex submissions in all four environments on
2026-10-06. Local runs passed at 20:35 UTC. Daytona native passed at
20:31 UTC; Daytona legacy passed at 20:33 UTC. Each stored exactly two
rows with company, agent, run, and task attribution, wrote the
continuation marker, exited zero, created no task comments, and left
task status unchanged. Each recorded two content-free activity entries.
- Daytona used production provider hooks, real remote execution and file
transfer, the legacy queue callback bridge, and native private WebSocket
ingress. The current Linux runner was built from `abf47b595`, staged,
and verified against controller contracts. Both sandboxes were confirmed
deleted. This is a focused feedback transport smoke; it does not claim
full Runner E2E catalog or browser qualification.
- The immutable base image and Linux binary digest are recorded in [the
verification
documentation](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/codex/agent-commentary/doc/agent-commentary.md#verification).
The smoke script can save content-free JSON evidence. No credentials or
feedback bodies are in these reports.

| Environment | Runner | Complaint row | Suggestion row |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| local | legacy Codex | `59413a00-1de2-4bb1-bcc6-9c4b54c64aa6` |
`3db2364d-3e15-4f47-846f-875d3902999d` |
| local | native Codex | `5da22b5f-41df-4de5-8ba0-d9345ab01267` |
`2d5abe17-dd41-403c-a5ee-4729f2d58921` |
| daytona | legacy Codex | `27c9d0aa-8477-409f-9da0-e8ffa48dee50` |
`209681c9-d1e9-4ce1-999e-48fa07692389` |
| daytona | native Codex | `6eb001bb-4bcf-43f7-8717-f662f53dc7c3` |
`77c383d8-a997-49e5-a33e-25c70e15c0b2` |

- Run the local check with `node cli/node_modules/tsx/dist/cli.mjs
server/scripts/verify-agent-commentary-live.ts`. The documentation gives
the Daytona invocation. Both use disposable instance databases and
normal Codex provider usage.
- Repository `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed after the test
extension. The build includes runner generation, contracts, and replay
checks. The smoke scripts also passed a separate TypeScript check. The
lagging-source migration regression passed. All equivalent current-head
Vitest CI shards passed. The local monolithic `pnpm test:run` invocation
was stopped after CI supplied that coverage; it did not complete
locally.
- Focused tests cover company isolation, spoofing, revoked credentials,
stale ownership, post-finish rejection, concurrent replay, conflicting
keys, atomic rollback, and deletion through existing services. Boundary
tests cover empty text, Unicode, text beyond 8,000 characters, and the
524,288-character ceiling without truncation. Mounting tests cover
Codex, Claude, and sandbox staging. Helper tests cover standalone Node
execution, stdin, invalid UTF-8, redirects, HTTP failure, and its
deadline. Privacy and bridge tests cover successful and rejected
requests.
- Instructions were compared with Warp's originals. MIT notices and
source credits live only in LICENSE files. Native tools preserve
truthful disclosure when asked, without routine announcements.
- [Full
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37508559190)
and Greptile 5/5 passed on the earlier feature commit `5209c3501`. The
later head found the migration-fixture assumption fixed in this update.
On `8a4965164`, all 55 check contexts passed after one browser shard
rerun. Its initial reviewer signoff failure also passed an isolated
local browser run (1 test). Greptile scored that head 5/5 and identified
one smoke cleanup gap. `6ecbafb0b` fixes failed-acquisition cleanup with
four passing tests and a passing smoke-script typecheck. Fresh CI is
pending for this final test-only fix. No commentary production code
changed during verification.

## Risks

- Feedback is internally attributed. It is not anonymous. Existing
redaction removes known credentials, but agents must still omit
sensitive content. Normal provider transcripts can include their
submitted arguments.
- Default skill availability changes for existing legacy agents. Runtime
policy filtering still applies. The helper uses the existing Node.js
runtime with no extra dependencies; custom runtimes can call the HTTP
endpoint.
- Feedback is removed with its run, agent, or company. Task deletion
clears only the issue pointer. Normal database backups include the
table.
- The migration is additive and has no backfill. Writes serialize on the
active run for replay consistency. No server suggestion quota is
imposed.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6-astra` through Codex, with `xhigh` reasoning effort and a
reported 258,400-token context window. Capabilities used: repository
inspection, code execution, and live runtime verification. No subagents
were used.

cad26c6bfb fix(tool-gateway): bound MCP discovery memory and concurrency (#14864)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents discover governed tools through the MCP gateway.
> - A listing repeated policy and full run-row reads for each catalog
tool.
> - Parallel listings multiplied those allocations during run startup.
> - One 900-tool baseline listing used 11,489 queries and about 1.7 GiB
of extra heap in a fixture.
> - This pull request shares reads within a listing and bounds whole
listings across the process.
> - The benefit is lower discovery memory use while execution still
checks current policy.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13115. Its on-demand target change affects the same listing loop.

**What happened?**

MCP discovery repeated roughly 13 reads per tool. Full run snapshots and
repeated connection configurations caused large allocations. Per-listing
bounds alone did not limit concurrent listings across gateways.

**Expected behavior**

Discovery reads shared inputs once per listing. The process bounds
active and queued listings. Catalog payload size and policy evaluation
still grow with the catalog. Tool execution checks current access rules.

**Steps to reproduce**

Create a company with a remote MCP connection, 900 catalog tools, large
schemas, and a large run snapshot. Send concurrent tools/list requests
using a run-bound gateway token. Run the committed benchmark for a
deterministic reproduction.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Baseline: f2e0f19630. Measured on Node
26.4.0 on macOS.

## What Changed

- Keep Michael Nguyen's per-listing policy cache, scalar policy reads,
16-decision bound, and catalog/connection split under repeatable read.
- Admit two whole listings per process and queue at most 32. Return 503
with tool_discovery_busy when full.
- Propagate disconnects to discovery. Stop scheduling new reads and
drain started reads before freeing the slot.
- Project context IDs in gateway authentication and GitHub runtime
discovery. Avoid loading task descriptions and results.
- Keep discovery audit counts and a SHA-256 digest instead of the full
name list. Retain access and activity audit records.
- Sweep expired named gateway tokens at startup and on the existing
scheduler. Delete at most 500 per pass. Add an idempotent expiry-index
migration. Resolve audit token references atomically so cleanup cannot
break admitted requests.
- Return GET 405 with Allow: POST on stateless MCP gateway and
runtime-tools endpoints. Keep runtime-tools authentication.
- Add red-green regressions, HTTP concurrency and policy-revocation
coverage, and browser approval assertions.
- Commit the benchmark harness, raw results, and resource-bound
documentation.

## Verification

- Baseline listing regressions failed with 722 queries for 50 tools and
6,422 for 500. The connection-row duplication regression also failed.
- Follow-up regressions failed before the fixes for full snapshot reads,
abandoned listings, full name-list audits, and expired tokens.
- Listing and scheduler tests: 14 pass. Existing gateway/policy suites
passed after preserving the cleanup return contract.
- Two HTTP journeys pass: initialize, GET/SSE rejection, 16 concurrent
500-tool listings, provider call, policy revocation, and denied retry.
Token cleanup during provider dispatch also completes successfully and
blocks subsequent requests.
- pnpm test:e2e tests/e2e/mcp-user-stories.spec.ts --grep
'@mcp-runnable': 8 pass. The approval journey clicks Allow once in the
browser. Review screenshots wait for loaded content.
- pnpm -r typecheck: passes. pnpm build: passes.
- The general server group completed with 14,755 passes and 18 failures.
The 17 startup mock failures were fixed; all 21 startup tests pass on
rerun. The one Discord timing failure passed on the unchanged baseline
and on rerun (74 tests). UI and CLI groups pass 7,632 tests. Shared and
skill groups pass 853 tests. The remaining database and adapter groups
pass 3,010 tests with one worker after a macOS shared-memory limit
interrupted a parallel run. All 149 serialized route files pass (2,762
tests).
- At 900 tools, one listing falls from 11,489 to 36 queries and from
about 1.7 GiB to 37 MiB of extra heap. Sixteen concurrent listings used
169–187 MiB of extra heap. Four connections used 39 queries per listing.
- Latest-head verification: 54 successful checks and two expected skips
on 5c0793090c. Fresh Greptile review: 5/5
with no unresolved threads.
- Reproduce with server/scripts/benchmark-tool-gateway-listing.ts. See
doc/mcp-discovery-performance.md and
doc/benchmarks/2026-10-01-mcp-discovery.json.

## Risks

- The process-wide FIFO queue can increase discovery latency. Excess
callers must retry 503 responses.
- Cancellation applies to discovery. Started database reads finish
before their slot is released.
- Audit consumers must use visibleToolCount and visibleToolsHash instead
of visibleTools.
- The expiry index can briefly lock the token table during migration.
Sweeps preserve unexpired and non-expiring tokens.
- Measurements use isolated fixtures and deterministic providers. They
do not establish a production heap limit or affected installation count.
Rate-limit reads remain uncached.

## Model Used

- Original listing optimization: Anthropic Claude Opus 5.5
(claude-opus-5-5), Claude Code, extended thinking and tool use, as
recorded by the original author.
- Follow-up fixes and verification: OpenAI Codex, GPT-6, with shell
execution, file edits, database fixtures, and browser tests. The exact
serving model ID and context window are not exposed in this session.

Nicky LeachandClaude Sonnet 5 04a9f89ede fix(server): bundle the vendored paperclip-runner instead of hand-mirroring its deps (#13121)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The server package is published to npm, but its native-runtime
driver code lives in `packages/paperclip-runner`, a private workspace
package that is never published
> - So the server build vendors the runner's compiled code by copying it
in directly, instead of taking it as a normal npm dependency
> - But `cp -R` only copies code, not `node_modules`, so every npm
package the runner imports has to be re-declared by hand in
`server/package.json` to stay resolvable once vendored
> - That hand mirroring step is silent and easy to forget: it missed
`smol-toml` in #13110, and CI stayed green while production crash-looped
3 seconds into every start (#13116)
> - This pull request keeps the proven `cp -R` vendor step exactly as it
was, and adds a build check that derives the required dependency set
from an esbuild scan of the vendored entry points, failing loudly and
precisely if any package the runner actually needs isn't declared in
`server/package.json`
> - The benefit is the dependency list is now verified against the real
module graph instead of hand-copied, so this exact class of bug cannot
pass a green build again -- without changing how the runner's code is
laid out on disk, which several of its modules depend on for unrelated
filesystem lookups

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #13110 (introduced the `smol-toml` import that the vendor step
could not resolve), #13116 (the follow-up fix for a different oversight
in the same PR), #11813 (the same "vendored package installed outside
the monorepo dependency graph loses a runtime dependency" failure shape,
in the Kubernetes plugin installer instead of the server build)

No issue exists yet for this specific incident, so per CONTRIBUTING.md
option (B):

**What happened?**
`packages/paperclip-runner/package.json` added `smol-toml` as a runtime
dependency in #13110. `server/package.json`'s existing convention (see
`acpx`, `ajv`) requires mirroring every runtime dependency the vendored
runner imports into `server/package.json` too, because the server build
copies the runner's compiled `dist/` tree with `cp -R` -- code only, no
`node_modules`. That mirroring step was missed. CI never runs the
compiled server (`node dist/index.js`); it only builds it, type-checks
it, and boots the app in dev mode via `tsx` against source, which never
touches the vendored path. So the PR merged green, and the deployed
server crash-looped in production:
```
Error [ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND]: Cannot find package 'smol-toml' imported from
/srv/paperclip/app/server/dist/vendor/paperclip-runner/drivers/codex/codex-startup-trust.js
```

**Expected behavior**
Any npm package the vendored runner code needs at runtime should either
be guaranteed present by construction, or the build should fail with a
clear, actionable error before the change ever reaches a PR -- not
silently pass CI and fail only once deployed.

**Steps to reproduce (the original incident)**
1. Add a new runtime dependency to
`packages/paperclip-runner/package.json` (e.g. a TOML parser) and use it
from a module reachable from the runner's `index.ts` export graph.
2. Do not add the same dependency to `server/package.json`.
3. Run `pnpm build` in `server/` -- it succeeds.
4. Run `node dist/index.js` -- it crashes with `ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND`
for the new package.

## What Changed

- **Revision note:** the first version of this PR replaced the `cp -R`
vendor step with an esbuild bundle of the runner's entry points.
Greptile's review correctly caught that this broke packaged
ACPX/OpenCode provider startup: several runner modules resolve sibling
build artifacts via `import.meta.url`-relative filesystem paths (not JS
imports) at whatever depth their source file sits at, and bundling
collapses/rearranges that layout. The current version keeps the file
layout untouched and only adds verification. See the second commit's
message for the full explanation.
- `server/scripts/verify-runner-vendor-dependencies.mjs`: a new build
step that runs esbuild with `write: false` (a pure module-graph scan --
nothing is written to disk) against the runner's two entry points server
actually imports (`index.js`, `testing.js`), with `packages: "external"`
so its metafile reports exactly which npm packages the code needs at
runtime. It fails with a precise, actionable error if any of them isn't
declared in `server/package.json`'s `dependencies`. This is deliberately
more precise than "mirror every dependency the runner declares": running
it against this repo's real manifests shows
`packages/paperclip-runner/package.json` declares dependencies
(`react-markdown`, the codex/opencode CLI packages, ...) that only its
unrelated `./react` and `./browser` export subpaths use -- server never
imports those, so a blanket mirror rule would demand dependencies server
doesn't actually need.
- `server/package.json`: added the new check into the `build` script
(right after the runner is built, before the expensive `tsc`/copy steps,
so it fails fast), and added `smol-toml` (`^1.4.2`, matching
`packages/paperclip-runner/package.json`) to `dependencies` -- the
actual missing piece from #13110. The vendor step (`cp -R
../packages/paperclip-runner/dist/. dist/vendor/paperclip-runner/`) is
unchanged from before this PR.
- Widened `server/vitest.config.ts`'s `include` to also run
`scripts/**/*.test.mjs`, and added
`server/scripts/verify-runner-vendor-dependencies.test.mjs` unit-testing
the pure dependency-diff function (`findMissingVendorDependencies`)
against the exact shape of the `smol-toml` incident, plus a case proving
an unreachable dependency (like `react-markdown`) is correctly never
flagged.
- Updated `server/src/__tests__/server-package-build-script.test.ts`'s
existing build-script assertions to match.

## Verification

- `node --check` on the new script -- syntax OK. `node -e` JSON-parsed
the edited `package.json` files after every edit.
- Unit-verified `findMissingVendorDependencies` directly against:
nothing missing, one missing (the `smol-toml` shape), and multiple
missing with stable sort order.
- Ran the actual check against this repo's real
`packages/paperclip-runner/package.json` and `server/package.json` (via
a standalone `node` invocation, since `pnpm build` needs a Rust
toolchain this sandbox doesn't have -- see below) to see its real
output. It correctly reported `smol-toml`, `acpx`, and `ajv` as already
satisfied, and did **not** flag `react-markdown`, `remark-gfm`,
`json-schema-to-ts`, `opencode-ai`, `@openai/codex`, or the
`@agentclientprotocol/*` packages -- confirming the "reachable from
index.js/testing.js" scoping works as intended and doesn't demand
dependencies server doesn't need.
- Built a fixture tree at a real filesystem location (not just
in-process) mimicking `packages/paperclip-runner`: a manifest declaring
both a reachable dependency (`smol-toml`, actually imported by the
fixture's `dist/index.js`/`testing.js`) and an unreachable one
(`react-markdown`, declared but never imported). Copied the real script
next to a fixture `server/package.json` and ran it as its own process
(`node server/scripts/verify-runner-vendor-dependencies.mjs`), twice:
- `smol-toml` missing from the fixture's server dependencies → the
script throws with the exact intended message and exits 1.
- `smol-toml` present, `react-markdown` absent → the script exits 0,
proving the unreachable dependency is correctly never flagged.
- Not verified locally: the real `packages/paperclip-runner` build, and
therefore the check running end-to-end against its true
`dist/index.js`/`dist/testing.js`. This sandbox has no Rust toolchain
(the runner's own build compiles a Cargo binary) and an incomplete
workspace install. CI's `Build` job (`.github/workflows/pr-trusted.yml`)
runs the real thing; I'll watch it on this PR.

## Risks

- The check's precision (scoping to what's reachable from
`index.js`/`testing.js`, rather than every declared runner dependency)
means a dependency that becomes reachable through some *other* export
subpath server starts importing later would need this check's
entry-point list updated too. That list is a 2-line array in the script
with a comment explaining why, and matches the only two paths server/src
actually imports today (verified by a repo-wide search).
- This only changes a build-time check; the actual vendored file layout
(`cp -R` of the runner's whole compiled tree) is byte-for-byte the same
as before this PR, so there's no behavioral change to the running server
beyond `smol-toml` now being present as intended.
- I could not exercise the real Rust-backed build locally (no Cargo in
this sandbox); see Verification. I am relying on CI's `Build` job to
confirm this end to end and will fix forward if it surfaces something
the fixture-based testing didn't.

## Model Used

Claude Sonnet 5 (`claude-sonnet-5`), via Claude Code. Standard
(non-extended) reasoning mode, with tool use (Bash, Read, Edit/Write,
`gh`) for repository exploration, local esbuild-based verification
against hand-built fixtures, and PR authoring. No extended thinking
mode.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 5a1ce7aed8 fix(server): stamp built commit into service.version (#11748)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The server emits OpenTelemetry spans so operators can trace agent
work
> - Each span needs a service version that identifies the code that
produced it
> - The current service version comes from a static environment value
and can become stale after a rebuild
> - This pull request records the built commit and resolves the service
version from the build stamp, runtime Git, the environment, or an
unknown fallback
> - The benefit is trace data that identifies the correct built commit
during development and deployment

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

The server used a static `OTEL_SERVICE_VERSION` value for every
OpenTelemetry span. Rebuilds could produce traces with an old commit
value.

**Expected behavior**

The server should report the built commit when a build stamp exists. It
should use runtime Git, the environment value, or `unknown` as fallback.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Set `OTEL_SERVICE_VERSION` to an old commit value.
2. Build the server at a different commit.
3. Start the server and inspect the OpenTelemetry service version.
4. Confirm that the built commit takes precedence over the old
environment value.

## What Changed

- Add a build script that writes the short Git commit to
`dist/build-info.json`.
- Resolve `service.version` from the build stamp, runtime Git, the
environment, or `unknown`.
- Log the resolved service version once during server startup.
- Add tests for the resolution order and safe behavior without Git.
- Document the resolution order in `doc/observability.md`.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server build`
- `npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/service-version.test.ts`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- Confirm that the build stamp contains the short commit.
- Confirm that the stamp wins over the environment value.
- Confirm that a build without Git exits successfully without a stamp.

## Risks

The server now prefers the built commit over `OTEL_SERVICE_VERSION`. A
build without Git uses the existing environment value or `unknown`. The
change needs no schema migration and has a single-commit rollback path.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-5, tool use and code execution. The runtime does not
expose the context window size or reasoning mode.

vanductai 9a70a4edaa fix(server): use stable tsx/cli entry point in dev-watch
The dev-watch script was importing tsx via the internal path
'tsx/dist/cli.mjs', which is an undocumented implementation detail
that broke when tsx updated its internal structure.

Switched to the stable public export 'tsx/cli' which is the
officially supported entry point and won't break across versions.
