DottaandPaperclip 0726a00e80 feat(apps): qualify Bitly, Context7, Hugging Face and Resend MCP (#15686)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets people manage AI agents and govern their tools.
> - Apps already supports provider-hosted MCP servers.
> - Useful providers still need real setup and read proof before Browse
exposure.
> - Browser testing found a Bitly token-format failure and an OAuth
callback that replaced an explicit empty agent selection.
> - This PR qualifies four provider methods and fixes those shared OAuth
paths.
> - Providers that still need login or approval remain withheld from new
Browse listings.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #15621, the merged hosted MCP qualification batch. Searches found
no duplicate Bitly or Context7 implementation PR.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Apps setup, provider MCP discovery, token exchange, and saved agent
access through an OAuth callback.

**Subsystem affected**

Shared Apps definitions, the server tool-access service, and the UI
setup/recovery route.

**Current behavior**

Bitly's callback can fail with `oauth_access_token_missing` when its
token response is not JSON. Curated MCP callbacks can treat an
explicitly saved empty install set as access for all agents. Context7 is
hidden and Hugging Face lacks a curated anonymous method. Saved drafts
for hidden providers cannot finish setup through their catalog wizard.

**Proposed behavior**

Request JSON token responses. Record explicit remote MCP install choices
in the install transaction and preserve them at callback. Keep managed
subject/default access when no choice was saved. Expose the qualified
Bitly and Context7 methods, add anonymous Hugging Face Hub access, and
record Resend qualification. Resume hidden providers only through an
exact matching company-visible saved draft.

**Reason and benefit**

People can connect useful hosted tools through the existing Apps flow.
An explicit zero-agent selection survives authorization. Public
documentation lookups need no OAuth app, account, or key.

**Breaking changes**

Explicitly saved empty MCP install choices now remain empty. Existing
managed defaults without a saved choice retain their behavior. No schema
migration or API shape change.

## What Changed

- Qualify Bitly OAuth, Context7 public MCP, Hugging Face public MCP, and
Resend OAuth with real browser setup, useful UI reads, and reload
checks.
- Negotiate JSON OAuth token responses and preserve explicitly saved MCP
agent reach with a transactional config marker.
- Add durable provider overrides, permission reviews, dated text-only
evidence, and official branding provenance. Remove all seven evidence
images and their report references.
- Restore Finish setup for hidden-provider drafts with
company/application/provider checks; keep fresh setup withheld. Preserve
success after the exact resumed draft becomes active, and restore valid
completed URLs to that exact saved Permissions page; reject initially
active, disabled, or archived resume targets. Align the Context7 route
assertion with its new qualified availability.
- Retain hidden ClickUp, Klaviyo, and monday.com research with exact
login/approval gates. monday.com requires provider callback
allowlisting.

## Verification

- Connector service suite: 420 passed, including
default/empty/agent/company reach and managed OAuth lifecycle coverage.
- Shared catalog: 36 passed. Override tests: 3 passed. Brand checks: 101
identities passed.
- Focused UI setup/recovery, Browse, and OAuth-helper suites: 306
passed. Actual hidden-draft resume/reload passed; a public Context7
draft seeded in the isolated app completed through the active-state
refetch and persisted with zero agents after reload. The completed URL
refresh and View connection open the exact saved Permissions page. Fresh
hidden setup, normal initially active resume, disabled/archived status,
and provider mismatch are rejected; a draft at the completion stage
stays in setup.
- Recursive typecheck and build passed again after rebase. The full
local Vitest run began before rebase and was cancelled as superseded
while still in the general-server phase; it is not a completed pass.
Exact-head CI supplies broad coverage. The focused connector service
suite passed against the final code. UI typecheck, build, and token
gates passed again after the draft-recovery fix.
- Targeted mock MCP Playwright journey: 1 passed (34.9s). It now
verifies View connection reaches the exact saved Permissions route, both
discovered actions, and reload persistence. This replaces the stale
Browse expectation found by CI.
- All CI gates passed on final commit
`32bb4c6422411eee632486950e45e2735102d1b3`. The inherited-pause test
timed out in the cleanup run and passed on one retry without code
changes; the entire file also passed locally, 36/36. Its exact timing
cause remains unresolved. A signoff timeout on the preceding
production-code commit also passed on its single retry. Greptile
reviewed the final commit at 5/5 with no open findings.
- Actual UI reads: Bitly current-user read; Resend List Domains
including a fresh setup after the final callback refinement; Context7
React docs; Hugging Face public docs search. No provider writes or real
agent runtimes ran.
- [Text-only qualification
report](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/32bb4c6422411eee632486950e45e2735102d1b3/doc/connections/easy-mcp-batch-2-2026-10-09.md)
include evidence limits and exact blockers. Account/profile/domain
results are omitted.

## Risks

- Bitly `mcp.all` and Resend `full_access` remain broad provider grants.
Qualification kept writes Off and selected no agents. Read proof does
not establish write behavior or refresh rotation.
- The explicit-choice marker applies to new install saves; older
unmarked flows keep their existing defaults. Its JSONB merge avoids
overwriting concurrent config fields.
- Public provider catalogs and rate limits can change. Unqualified
providers remain withheld from new Browse entries; retained connections
remain available for recovery.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, plus OpenAI `gpt-6-luna` subagents for
provider research, browser testing, and review. The exact primary
serving variant and context-window size are not exposed by this runtime.
Used reasoning, code execution, and browser tools.

DottaandPaperclip 2b688a8fe3 feat(connections): add verified MCP providers and setup fixes (#15621)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Apps give agents governed access to external tools.
> - Several provider MCP servers lacked a supported catalog entry or
failed during setup.
> - Real browser tests identified specific registration, session, and
form defects.
> - This pull request adds seven catalog entries and fixes the shared
paths used by eleven verified providers.
> - Users can connect these providers through the existing Apps flow and
control each action.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The Apps catalog and remote MCP setup, discovery, and action tester.

**Subsystem affected**

Shared app definitions, the server tool services, and the Apps UI.

**Current behavior**

Seven providers lack a catalog entry. Airtable can select an advertised
client-metadata flow that fails. Calendly rejects the registration name.
Tavily needs an initialized session before a call. Firecrawl exposes
invalid defaults for optional nested form objects. HTTPS setup can
display a callback that differs from the server callback.

**Proposed behavior**

Add Calendly, Exa, Firecrawl, GSC Wizard, Parallel Search, Tavily, and
Windsor.ai. Preserve Airtable, Linear, Make, and PostHog. Use reviewed
provider options through the shared MCP and OAuth paths. Display the
callback supplied by the server. Omit untouched optional object inputs.

**Reason and benefit**

Eleven providers passed bounded reads through the real Paperclip browser
action tester. This PR includes that verified set and its required
shared fixes. Unfinished providers remain outside this change. AgentMail
keeps its existing integration.

**Breaking changes**

No database migration. Existing OAuth credentials and action policies
keep their ownership and access rules. Airtable's reviewed method
re-registers a retained client-metadata binding through DCR. Tavily's
reviewed method initializes sessions before dispatch. The existing
customer, managed, and Vercel OAuth gateway paths now refresh on
upstream 401 and return `oauth_refreshed_retry_required` (409),
requiring an explicit caller retry. They do not replay the rejected call
automatically; the next invocation initializes a fresh credential-scoped
session when required.

Related catalog work: #15545. This branch preserves current master
catalog entries and does not add another Google Workspace integration.
Open and closed provider PRs and public MCP issues were searched. No
duplicate for this verified set was found. The change extends the
shipped Connected Apps roadmap item.

## What Changed

- Add seven catalog entries with official provider branding and reviewed
permissions.
- Update Airtable, Linear, and Make metadata and show Make in Apps.
- Add authoritative provider source overrides that use the existing
generation and review checks.
- Add the reviewed Airtable DCR option and compatible Calendly
registration names.
- Initialize Tavily sessions before discovery and calls, including
retained connections. Keep credential-scoped session caching and single
call dispatch.
- Use the server's callback URL in the OAuth setup UI.
- Omit untouched optional object defaults; keep supplied empty strings,
false, zero, and object values intact in the action tester, with strict
required-child validation.
- Require an explicit retry after OAuth refresh instead of replaying a
tools/call with missing session headers.
- Record all eleven successful reads, write policies, auth-method
limits, and qualification caveats. Omit credentials and private account
data.
- Find chat connector cards through catalog search in browser tests, so
pagination does not hide Slack or other later entries.

## Verification

- Real browser qualification: eleven bounded reads passed. Catalog
refresh and reload proof are recorded in
`doc/connections/verified-mcp-qualification-2026-10-08.md`.
- Provider writes and actual agent-adapter sessions were not run.
Alternative documented auth methods and expiry refresh remain
unqualified.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed.
- `pnpm build`: passed.
- Focused shared/catalog tests: 41 passed. Source override tests: 3
passed. Catalog regeneration fixture suite: 9 passed. Latest form
regression suites: 31 passed. Gateway suite: 38 passed. Other focused UI
suites passed before these last fixes.
- UI token gates and both token sync checks: passed.
- The catalog regeneration fixture includes the authoritative provider
overrides; its full suite passes. The focused OAuth socket case passed
on isolated rerun.
- Complete local UI suite: 7,866 passed. CLI suite: 511 passed, 6
skipped. Complete shared suite: 892 passed.
- The unchanged AgentMail/ClickUp discovery fallback suite passes all 45
cases. An OpenAI login test passed on isolated rerun.
- Local broad database coverage is limited by macOS PostgreSQL
shared-memory exhaustion (`shmget: No space left on device`, not disk
space). The broad run was interrupted after diagnosis; no host settings
or other running services were changed.
- CI found that the Slack browser test assumed its catalog card was on
the first page. The test now uses catalog search; the Slack case passes
locally. Adjacent GitHub and iMessage cases could not start locally
because embedded PostgreSQL initialization failed before browser
assertions.
- Final commit
[`febe4520e`](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/commit/febe4520e13d4b3a4121eafc3d22540c2b11379d):
all 54 checks passed, with none pending or failed. [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37847182065)
passed typecheck, build, all general and serialized test suites, all
eight browser shards, runner checks, canary dry run, and the aggregate
verification gate.
- Greptile reviewed that exact final commit at 2026-10-08 21:33 UTC and
returned 5/5 with no outstanding findings or unresolved threads.
- PR UI preview against the existing local test server: Calendly
catalog/setup observed; Firecrawl read passed after expanding More
options with nested optional inputs untouched. This retest proves
frontend behavior, not the revised OAuth backend against a live
provider.

</details>

## Risks

- Provider registration and consent behavior can change. Airtable's DCR
option is explicit and keeps the existing issuer, resource, redirect,
and PKCE checks.
- Tavily uses initialized sessions without automatic call retries. After
a successful OAuth refresh following 401, callers now receive a
retry-required result. A later explicit retry can still require
reauthorization if the provider rejects the refreshed token. Provider
writes are not live-qualified.
- Optional object cleanup affects the shared action tester. Regression
tests cover absent objects, required children, defaults, and populated
values.
- GSC Wizard's underlying Google data scopes and Google flow completion
were not independently verified. Its account reported paid/trial
metadata of unknown origin. No purchase was performed.
- No database migration, new AgentMail integration, or change to
existing action grants is included.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex assisted with implementation, research, tool
use, and code execution. The root backend model ID and context window
are not exposed in this session. The cheaper subagents used OpenAI
`gpt-6-luna`. No model context size is inferred.

Devin Foley 53105d5830 feat(apps): add Gauge connection (#15596)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents reach external services through the Apps catalog. Each
catalog entry is a reviewed `AppDefinition` that connects a provider's
hosted MCP server to Paperclip's shared vault, grants, policies,
gateway, and audit trail.
> - Gauge (`withgauge.com`) measures how AI answer engines mention and
cite a brand. Its hosted MCP server also gives SEO, analytics and ads
reports, and runs a content pipeline that can publish to a connected
CMS.
> - Gauge is not in the catalog. Operators must use the generic "Connect
your own MCP server" flow. That flow has no branding, no organization
guidance, and no warning about live CMS publishing.
> - The connector playbook supports this provider with existing
definition fields. The server supports dynamic client registration with
a reviewed `mcp` scope, and it accepts an organization API key as a
bearer header.
> - This pull request adds the Gauge definition, its artwork, the
research and permission-review ledger rows, documentation, and
deterministic tests.
> - The benefit is a branded, governed Gauge connection with browser
sign-in, an API-key option, and a clear publish warning.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

Marketing and growth teams use Gauge to track their brand in AI answers
and to run content workflows. They want their Paperclip agents to read
visibility, keyword and traffic data, and to prepare content. Gauge is
not in the Apps catalog. Operators must paste the MCP URL into the
generic remote-MCP flow, which gives no branding, no method guidance,
and no warning that content tools can publish live.

**Proposed solution**

Add a catalog-only Gauge connection built from the connector playbook.
Browser sign-in uses Gauge's dynamic client registration and requests
only the reviewed `mcp` scope. The user selects one Gauge organization
on the consent screen. An optional method sends a customer-created
organization API key as an `Authorization: Bearer` header. Both methods
warn the operator to set publish actions to Ask first. Every discovered
tool stays governed by the normal per-action policies.

**Alternatives considered**

A plugin was not needed because no custom UI, tables, workers, or
webhooks are involved. The identity scopes that Gauge also advertises
(`openid`, `profile`, `email`, `organizations`) are not requested,
because Gauge selects the organization on its consent screen. A
Gauge-specific `classifyRisk` rule was not added, because the tool names
cannot be seen without an account. The generic rule already classifies
`publish`, `create` and `update` tools as writes.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the existing self-serve remote-MCP connection catalog and
does not overlap planned core work.

## What Changed

- Added the `gauge` provider to `scripts/ingest-app-definitions.mjs`
(category `analytics`, API-key placement, guidance, warnings,
description) and regenerated
`packages/shared/src/app-definitions/gauge.json` and the generated
registry.
- Added the Gauge row to the self-serve MCP research ledger with
`dcr_or_api_key` auth and risk tier S3.
- Added permission reviews for `gauge/mcp-oauth` (explicit scope `mcp`,
from Gauge's live authorization-server metadata) and `gauge/mcp-api-key`
(provider key), with evidence links.
- Added Gauge's mark (`ui/public/brands/apps/gauge.png`, the avatar of
Gauge's official GitHub organization) and the brand manifest entry.
- Added gallery copy for the Gauge card.
- Added `doc/connections/GAUGE.md` (endpoints, scopes, administrator
setup, capabilities and policy, manifest, brand provenance, validation
hook) and linked it from the connections README and the permission
audit.
- Tests: Gauge definition shape, store visibility and artwork, URL
recognition, reviewed scope, bearer-header placement, the connect form's
sign-in default and API-key gating, and the pinned catalog counts.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/app-definitions.test.ts
packages/shared/src/app-definitions-url.test.ts
ui/src/pages/apps/AppsConnect.test.tsx ui/src/pages/apps/Browse.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/app-brand-assets.test.ts
ui/src/pages/apps/AppLogo.brand-assets.test.tsx
server/src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts` — 738 passed.
- `node scripts/check-app-brand-assets.mjs` and `node --test
scripts/app-brand-validation.test.mjs` — passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck`, `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/server typecheck`, `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui
typecheck` — clean.
- `node scripts/ingest-app-definitions.mjs --definitions-only` produces
no Gauge drift.
- Manual: on a local instance, open Apps → Browse and confirm the Gauge
card and icon. Open `/apps/connect?source=gauge` and confirm that
sign-in is the default and that the API-key method is under Advanced.
- Live metadata probe on 2026-10-08: an unauthenticated `initialize` on
`https://app.withgauge.com/mcp` returns 401 with `resource_metadata`.
Both `.well-known` documents return the recorded endpoints and scopes.
Dynamic client registration succeeds. The authorize endpoint accepts
`scope=mcp` and rejects an unknown scope with HTTP 400.

## Risks

- Low risk to existing providers: the change is additive catalog data
plus tests. The generated registry only gains one import.
- Gauge content tools can publish to a connected CMS, including live,
and a bulk keyword update replaces each prompt's keyword list. Both
methods warn the operator, and the API-key helper text tells operators
to set publish actions to Ask first.
- Gauge API keys are not scoped and reach the whole organization.
Paperclip cannot narrow an issued key.
- The permission-review ledger records live proof for both methods as
not run. The lifecycle checklist in `doc/connections/GAUGE.md` still
needs a documented pass with a Gauge organization.

f77fcbf4bf feat(apps): add Telem.AI web search connection (#15379)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Research agents need current web information.
> - The Apps catalog connects agents to remote MCP tools through the
normal access rules.
> - Telem.AI supplies web search and page reading through one API key.
> - This PR adds its catalog entry, optional search settings, artwork,
and setup guide.
> - The connection keeps an operator's saved header policy when they
reconnect.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15302. Related catalog work: #13881.

This PR continues #15302 by Yifei Ai (@aiwen324). Thank you for the
connector and its review fixes. All seven original commits are
preserved. GitHub denied the attempt to push to the contributor's fork,
so this branch retains the repair commit and merges current master.
Master now includes the same test fix.

For a squash merge, keep the original author in the final commit
message:

```

A search found no separate public Telem issue or competing Telem PR. The
existing Apps path matches the roadmap.

**Agent or provider**

Telem.AI provides web search and page reading through a hosted MCP
server.

**Why this adapter is useful**

Agents can use multiple search providers through one governed
connection. Operators can set the search tier, auto routing, and
provider lists.

**How the agent is invoked**

The remote MCP server uses Streamable HTTP at
`https://mcp.telem.ai/mcp`. The API key uses an `Authorization: Bearer`
header. See the [official MCP
guide](https://docs.telem.ai/integrations/mcp/).

## What Changed

- Add the Telem.AI definition, research entry, permission review, and
generated registry entry.
- Add four optional settings. Unset settings send no request header.
- Add official light and dark artwork, source records, and a setup
guide.
- Forward company, issue, agent, run, project, and correlation IDs by
default. Preserve a saved policy, including disabled forwarding, on
reconnect.
- Add catalog and connection tests.

## Verification

Current head: `b4164477fb1b312a504789bf17b51c963244c0fd`.
Merged master: `228f0e2807c5b59d2aa129cf2d80b9777ebabf07`.

- Resolved five shared catalog conflicts after the Superagent connection
merged.
- Keep both providers in the research ledger, generated registry,
generator, branding manifest, and connection guide index.
- Correct the combined catalog totals: 52 self-serve candidates, 55
research entries, and 68 Apps entries.
- The published Git tree exactly matches the tested local resolution.
- Catalog and Apps UI suites: **295 tests pass** after the catalog count
fixes.
- Connection service suite: **387 tests pass** in the full run. Its only
failure was the old catalog count. That test passes on a focused rerun
after the fix. This gives **388 passing service tests** across the two
runs.
- Total focused coverage: **683 passing tests**. The first runs exposed
four fixed-count assertions that needed the combined totals.
- Shared package build and plugin SDK compile pass. Token gates and
whitespace checks pass.
- Generation with `--definitions-only` reproduces the Telem definition
and registry. The unrelated AgentMail and Linear drift remains excluded.
- Local UI typecheck ended with exit 137 at the container memory limit.
Full local typecheck, test, and build are not claimed. Earlier runs also
recorded missing Cargo and Node development headers.
- GitHub reports a clean merge state against master `228f0e280`.
- All 54 checks are complete: **52 passed and two Storybook checks
skipped**. No check failed or remains pending.
-
[CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37545412406)
passes on this head. This includes typecheck, build, tests, browser
shards, Runner checks, and Canary Dry Run.
-
[Greptile](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/15379#issuecomment-6024519537)
is **5/5 on this head**. There are no review threads, open P2s,
recommendations, or follow-ups.
-
[Superagent](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/runs/112548142930)
passes.
- Final recovery checks confirm all seven original commits and current
master remain in history. Token gates and whitespace checks pass.
- The final recovery run makes no source change. It verifies the
published repair and retains the local check limits below.
-
[Commitperclip](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37545407943)
passes with no failures. Its only informational note asks the merger to
keep the author trailer above.
- All seven original contribution commits remain in history. The diff
against master contains the same 14 Telem files. It adds no dependency,
lockfile, schema, or workflow change.
- The managed GitHub CLI capability was missing in this run. The
installed GitHub connection applied the base files, merged master, then
restored the tested combined catalog. No history was rewritten.

The previous head `2d32a0094` passed all remote gates and had Greptile
5/5. Those results do not verify this new head.

The original PR reports live setup, discovery, settings headers, gateway
calls, and context-header forwarding. This repair does not repeat those
account-bound checks. The permission record still marks maintainer live
qualification as outstanding.

## Risks

- Telem.AI receives the six context IDs by default. The saved header
policy controls forwarding. Search use is billed to the account that
owns the key.
- All agents on a connection share its search settings.
- The merge uses master's route-test setup unchanged. The
company-boundary assertions remain intact.

Devin Foley 8cbd21b3e7 feat(apps): add Superagent connection (#15394)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents reach external services through the Apps catalog. Each
catalog entry is a reviewed `AppDefinition` that connects a provider's
hosted MCP server to Paperclip's shared vault, grants, policies,
gateway, and audit trail.
> - Superagent (`superagent.sh`) is a security platform. Its hosted MCP
server lets agents read and triage security findings, start red-team
reports, run Contributor Trust and dependency update jobs, and score web
pages, email, files, skills, MCP repositories, and packages before an
agent trusts them.
> - Superagent is not in the catalog. Operators must use the generic
"Connect your own MCP server" flow. That flow has no branding, no key
guidance, and no warning about billable or destructive tools.
> - The connector playbook supports this provider with existing
definition fields. The server accepts an organization API key as a
bearer header. It publishes no OAuth authorization-server metadata, so
browser sign-in is not possible.
> - This pull request adds the Superagent definition, its artwork, the
research and permission-review ledger rows, documentation, deterministic
tests, and one reviewed risk-classification rule.
> - The benefit is a branded, governed Superagent connection with clear
key guidance and a warning about tools that cost credits or delete data.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

Teams that use Superagent for PR security, red teaming, and agent
guardrails want their Paperclip agents to read findings, return
structured reports, and score content before they use it. Superagent is
not in the Apps catalog. Operators must paste the MCP URL and an
`Authorization` header into the generic remote-MCP flow. That flow gives
no branding and no provider guidance. It also does not tell the operator
that the key reaches the whole organization, or that some tools consume
credits or permanently delete findings.

**Proposed solution**

Add a catalog-only Superagent connection that follows the connector
playbook. It has one method: a customer organization API key
(`sk_live_...`), sent as an `Authorization: Bearer` header to
`https://www.superagent.sh/mcp`. The field helper text explains that
Superagent keys are not scoped. The method warning tells operators to
set billable and destructive actions to Ask first before agents run
unattended. All discovered tools stay governed by the normal per-action
policies.

**Alternatives considered**

A browser sign-in method was not added. The server's protected-resource
metadata names `https://superagent.sh` as its authorization server, but
that origin publishes no `oauth-authorization-server` or
`openid-configuration` document, so Paperclip cannot discover OAuth
endpoints. A plugin was not needed because the connection needs no
custom UI, tables, workers, or webhooks. Relying on the generic risk
classifier was not enough. Several Superagent mutations
(`triage_finding`, `scan_*`, `restore_agent_builtin_rule`) use names
that it reads as reads, so a narrow reviewed Superagent rule was added
instead.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the existing self-serve remote-MCP connection catalog. It
does not overlap planned core work.

## What Changed

- Added the `superagent` row to
`packages/shared/src/self-serve-mcp-research.json` (API-key auth, risk
tier S4).
- Added the `superagent` provider to
`scripts/ingest-app-definitions.mjs` (category, key placement and
placeholder, console links, guidance, description). Regenerated
`packages/shared/src/app-definitions/superagent.json` and the generated
registry.
- Added the `superagent/mcp-api-key` permission review to
`doc/connections/tool-method-permission-reviews.json`, with
key-permission text and evidence links.
- Added Superagent's official mark
(`ui/public/brands/apps/superagent.png`, the 460×460 avatar of the
official `superagent-ai` GitHub organization) and the brand manifest
entry.
- Added gallery copy for the Superagent card.
- Added a reviewed Superagent rule to `classifyRisk` in
`server/src/services/tool-access.ts`. Only `list_*` and `get_*` tools,
and tools that Superagent marks read-only, are reads. `delete_*` and
`revoke_agent_client` are destructive. All other tools are writes, so
billable and rule-changing tools can be set to Ask first.
- Put the Ask-first advice in the API-key helper text, because the key
form shows helper text and not method warnings.
- Added `doc/connections/SUPERAGENT.md` (transport and auth, why there
is no OAuth, administrator setup, capabilities and policy, manifest,
brand provenance, validation hook). Linked it from the connections
README and the permission audit.
- Tests: definition shape, store visibility and artwork, URL
recognition, the bearer header on discovery with the key kept out of
connection config, read/write/destructive classification of fixture
tools, the Superagent risk rule (including `triage_finding` and
`restore_agent_builtin_rule`), the visible Ask-first advice and API-key
gating of the connect form, and the pinned catalog counts.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/app-definitions.test.ts
packages/shared/src/app-definitions-url.test.ts
ui/src/pages/apps/AppsConnect.test.tsx ui/src/pages/apps/Browse.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/app-brand-assets.test.ts
ui/src/pages/apps/AppLogo.brand-assets.test.tsx`: 317 passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts`: 385 passed.
- `node scripts/check-app-brand-assets.mjs` and `node --test
scripts/app-brand-validation.test.mjs`: passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck`, `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/server typecheck`, and `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui
typecheck`: clean.
- Manual: in a local instance, open Apps → Browse and confirm the
Superagent card and icon. Open `/apps/connect?source=superagent`.
Confirm the single API-key method, and confirm that Connect enables only
after a key is entered.
- Live metadata probe on 2026-10-06: an unauthenticated `initialize` on
`https://www.superagent.sh/mcp` returns 401 with
`resource_metadata="https://www.superagent.sh/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource"`.
That document returns 200. No authorization-server metadata exists at
the named issuer.

## Risks

- Low risk to existing providers. The change is additive catalog data
plus tests. The generated registry only gains one import. The new risk
rule runs only for Superagent connections.
- A Superagent key reaches its whole organization. Some tools consume
credits (`create_*_report`, `triage_finding`) or delete data permanently
(`delete_finding`). Every action starts Allowed under the current
product default. The key helper text tells operators to set these
actions to Ask first.
- The permission-review ledger records live proof as not run. No
Superagent account was used. The lifecycle checklist in
`doc/connections/SUPERAGENT.md` needs a documented pass before the entry
is fully qualified.

88ff98b83d feat(apps): add read-only Enterpret MCP with OAuth and org tokens (#13906)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip agents need governed access to Enterpret's hosted MCP
tools for customer feedback.
> - The official Enterpret MCP is read-only. Enterpret Agent’s beta
write MCP is a separate service and is outside this PR.
> - This PR supports both organization auth tokens and personal browser
OAuth for the official MCP.
> - Enterpret committed to fixing OAuth scope behavior and reducing its
token-revocation cache window. The provider fixes will follow after
connector deployment and do not gate this release. Paperclip functional
validation remains required. New tools stay quarantined on refresh.
> - This PR combines the original connector and Vivek's token-path work
on current master, with live self-hosted QA recorded in the validation
guide.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue covers this connector. This PR incorporates the work
from #14737. The independent OAuth scope-provenance fix is #14059; it is
not required for the organization-token path. #13890 is a merged
connector precedent. #13692 provides the connector-authoring skill.

**Problem or motivation**

The generic MCP setup can reach Enterpret, but it has no reviewed
Enterpret entry, method-specific setup, artwork, or policy defaults. The
original connector branch had also fallen behind master.

**Proposed solution**

Publish the Enterpret catalog entry with an organization auth token as
the selectable method. Support browser OAuth through instance-local DCR
on the same read-only endpoint. Default `run_graph_query` to Ask first
and quarantine tools newly found on refresh.

## What Changed

- Added the Enterpret app definition, generated registry, official icon,
Browse card, setup copy, tests, and Storybook states.
- Combined #14737 and resolved the current-master conflicts, including
the connector permission audit.
- Preserved catalog quarantine on token reconnect and updated expiry
guidance to follow the token's dashboard expiry. The QA token displayed
three months, contradicting the former six-month copy.
- Enabled personal OAuth for the official read-only MCP. Removed the
write-capability inference and OAuth draft-only setup restriction. The
beta Agent endpoint is excluded.
- Preserved tool quarantine during token reconnect, with a regression
test for existing quarantined and newly discovered tools.
- Added OAuth scope and revocation-cache disclosures and an interactive
Storybook retry check.
- Merged master `d9f600043` into the existing PR branch without
rewriting history. Resolved four conflicts, regenerated the combined
registry, and retained the model-provider assertions with a catalog
count of 66.
- Recorded live QA and its limits in
[doc/connections/ENTERPRET.md](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/950bacc52/doc/connections/ENTERPRET.md).

## Verification

Current head: `6c73d3084202ccbb25080e7a4e9c3467bc1341dd`. All 513
focused connector, discovery, OAuth, policy, shared-definition, and
UI-handoff tests passed across 11 suites. Full repository typecheck,
build, Storybook build, token gates, module boundaries, Node policy,
no-git-push policy, and typecheck-build-gaps passed. Release-registry
tests passed 129/129 with modern Bash. The four failures with macOS Bash
3.2 also reproduced on untouched master.

The full test suite passed in CI on this exact head, including every
general-test and serialized-server shard and all eight E2E shards. The
duplicate local `pnpm test:run` was stopped after these remote test
lanes passed; it did not complete locally. The combined registry was
regenerated. Regeneration also reproduces existing Linear and AgentMail
definition drift on untouched master; those unrelated changes were
excluded.

On an isolated self-hosted Paperclip instance, an organization token
connected and discovered eight actions. `get_organization_details`
returned the intended organization before and after reconnect. Catalog
refresh, invalid-token failure and valid-token recovery, activity
logging, local disable, and local removal were exercised. No feedback
quotes or graph query were requested. Paperclip revoked both QA
connection secrets and archived the QA connections.

The token-path agent access preview correctly showed an action Off, but
the board Test endpoint still invoked it as the board user. This shared
Test-path mismatch is documented; it is not evidence that a real agent
can bypass policy. An actual token-path agent-session denial, a real
agent process, expiry recovery, server/VPS, and Cloud remain unverified.

Enterpret's dashboard confirmed the QA token was revoked, but the same
token immediately reconnected and completed a safe read. Vivek explained
this as a 24-hour validity cache and committed to reducing the window.
The new maximum delay and deployment remain unverified. The earlier
OAuth check reported `mcp:write` and `email` for an `mcp:read` request.
This is a scope mismatch; it did not prove access to write tools. On
2026-10-01 the account holder relayed Vivek’s clarification that the
official MCP is read-only and the beta Agent write MCP is separate.

## Risks

The organization token can read the organization's customer feedback,
and provider-side revocation did not immediately stop access. Operators
should check each token's displayed expiry and remove Paperclip's local
connection when retiring access. The account holder confirmed the
provider fixes are fast follows after deployment. Release can proceed
with the current scope reporting and up-to-24-hour revocation delay
documented, once fresh OAuth authorization/refresh, real-agent
allow/deny, CI, and review pass. Retest the reduced revocation window
after Enterpret deploys it. Scope labels alone must not be used to claim
write access.

Greptile is 5/5 on head `6c73d3084` with no actionable findings. All
current-head CI checks pass, including the canary dry run. Live
agent-session denial and fresh OAuth refresh remain explicit deployment
QA items. The board Test panel does not prove agent authorization.
Provider scope-reporting and revocation-cache fixes are accepted fast
follows after deployment.

## Model Used

Original connector and validation record: Claude Opus 5 through Claude
Code. Integration, current-master reconciliation, and token-path QA:
OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family (exact host variant not exposed), using
repository tools and an isolated runtime. Contributor commits retain
their authors.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 5b8b2b38ca feat(apps): add Neon connection (#14980)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents reach external services through the Apps catalog. Each
catalog entry is a reviewed `AppDefinition` that wires a provider's
hosted MCP server into Paperclip's shared vault, grants, policies,
gateway, and audit trail.
> - Neon is a widely used serverless Postgres provider with an official
hosted MCP server, but it is not in the catalog. Teams that run their
databases on Neon must use the generic "connect your own MCP server"
path, which has no branding, no guidance, and no project or read-only
controls.
> - The connector playbook requires a catalog entry for a provider like
this: the hosted server supports dynamic client registration and bearer
API keys, and the common definition fields can express every option
Paperclip can serialize.
> - This pull request adds the Neon definition, its official artwork,
the research and permission-review ledger rows, documentation, and
deterministic tests, without any provider-specific runtime code.
> - The benefit is a one-click, governed Neon connection with optional
project pinning and read-only mode, and a documented path to live
qualification.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

Neon is a common Postgres host for the applications agents work on, but
Paperclip's Apps catalog has no Neon entry. Operators who want agents to
inspect schemas, run SQL, or manage branches must paste the MCP URL into
the generic remote-MCP flow, which gives no branding, no provider
guidance, no project boundary, and no read-only switch.

**Proposed solution**

Add a catalog-only Neon connection built from the connector playbook:
browser sign-in through Neon's dynamic client registration with the
reviewed `read` and `write` scopes, or a customer API key sent as an
Authorization bearer header. Both methods expose Neon's documented
`projectId` pin and `readonly` switch as optional Advanced fields. Every
discovered tool stays governed by the normal per-action policies.

**Alternatives considered**

A plugin was not needed because no custom UI, tables, workers, or
webhooks are involved. A separate read-only method was not added because
the playbook treats read-only switches as advanced fields rather than
methods. Neon's repeatable `category` query filter was left out because
tenant fields serialize lists as one comma-joined value, so it cannot be
sent correctly without new runtime code; per-action policies cover
catalog narrowing instead.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the existing self-serve remote-MCP connection catalog and
does not overlap planned core work.

## What Changed

- Added the `neon` provider to `scripts/ingest-app-definitions.mjs`
(category, API-key placement, methods, tenant fields, guidance,
warnings) and regenerated
`packages/shared/src/app-definitions/neon.json` plus the generated
registry.
- Added the Neon row to the self-serve MCP research ledger with
`dcr_or_api_key` auth and risk tier S4.
- Added permission reviews for `neon/mcp-oauth` (explicit scopes `read`,
`write`, taken from Neon's live authorization-server metadata) and
`neon/mcp-api-key` (provider key), with evidence links.
- Added Neon's official tile icon (`ui/public/brands/apps/neon.png`,
copied byte-for-byte from the icon linked by neon.com) and the brand
manifest entry.
- Added prosumer gallery copy for the Neon card.
- Added `doc/connections/NEON.md` (service involvement, endpoints,
administrator setup, capabilities and policy, manifest, brand
provenance, validation hook) and linked it from the connections README
and the permission audit.
- Tests: Neon definition shape, store visibility and artwork, URL
recognition, reviewed scopes with scope-widening rejection, URL
projection of the project pin and read-only flag, invalid project ID
rejection, the connect form's API-key gating, and the pinned catalog
counts.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/app-definitions.test.ts
packages/shared/src/app-definitions-url.test.ts` — 34 passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts` — 367 passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/pages/apps/AppsConnect.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/apps/Browse.test.tsx ui/src/lib/app-brand-assets.test.ts
ui/src/pages/apps/AppLogo.brand-assets.test.tsx` — all passed.
- `node scripts/check-app-brand-assets.mjs` and `node --test
scripts/app-brand-validation.test.mjs` — passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck`, `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/server typecheck`, `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui
typecheck`, `pnpm check:token-gates` — clean.
- Manual: in a local instance, open Apps → Browse, confirm the Neon card
and icon, open `/apps/connect?source=neon`, confirm both methods, the
Advanced project pin and read-only toggle, and that Connect enables
after an API key is entered. The operator completed a live connection
against a Neon account on this build.
- Live metadata probed on 2026-10-02: both `.well-known` documents at
`mcp.neon.tech` return the recorded endpoints and scopes; an
unauthenticated `initialize` returns 401 with `resource_metadata`.

## Risks

- Low risk to existing providers: the change is additive catalog data
plus tests. The generated registry only gains one import.
- Neon's hosted server grants broad project and database management. The
definition carries two warnings, recommends a development project, and
keeps every write under the normal action policies; the read-only switch
is enforced by Neon's server, not locally.
- The permission-review ledger records live proof for both methods as
not run; the full lifecycle checklist in `doc/connections/NEON.md` still
needs a documented pass before the entry is considered fully qualified.

DottaandPaperclip 4ac374103f fix(connections): repair Asana MCP and add shared-app sign-in (#14756)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Connections let agents use provider tools through the permission
gateway.
> - Asana provides an official remote MCP server, but its v2 server
requires a registered MCP OAuth app.
> - Setup can discover retired v1 endpoints and send a callback that
differs from the displayed URL.
> - This pull request repairs custom app setup and adds sign-in through
Paperclip's shared app.
> - Users can choose their own app without enrolling with Paperclip
Cloud.
> - Agents can use Asana tools after the user connects their account and
sets action permissions.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #14739 supplies the personal credential repair used by resumed
Asana setup. No duplicate Asana authentication PR was found.

**What happened?**

Asana setup failed even with a user-created app. Root discovery metadata
still points at v1. MCP v2 uses the Asana OAuth issuer and requires an
MCP app with a client secret. Local setup also displayed a localhost
callback while an Origin header could make authorization use a numeric
loopback callback.

**Expected behavior**

Sign in with Paperclip's app when its broker profile is available. Keep
custom MCP app setup available without Cloud enrollment. Use the correct
issuer, callback, client credentials, and resource throughout setup.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Open Asana in the connection catalog.
2. Supply an Asana MCP app's client ID and secret.
3. Start OAuth on a local instance opened with a numeric loopback
address, or resume a draft that cached v1 metadata.
4. Observe the wrong discovery endpoint or callback mismatch.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced from b54b2dc35c. Rebased onto
master at `0829d94af` after the single-screen setup change in #14811.

**Deployment mode**

Local development from source. The managed path also supports enrolled
self-hosted instances.

## What Changed

- Add the `asana.mcp` managed profile and the default Sign in with Asana
method.
- Use Asana's reviewed v2 protected-resource metadata before cached
endpoints.
- Require a custom MCP app's client secret and retain saved credentials
during setup or reconnect. Repair only the known Asana v1
issuer/resource binding, retaining company and callback checks.
- Expose a boolean for the acting user's saved client secret. The form
offers secret reuse only when that user has an active grant with the
required reference.
- Let users select their own app from the enrollment and
shared-app-unavailable screens, or from Advanced on the single-screen
setup page.
- Canonicalize HTTP loopback callbacks even when the request includes an
Origin header.
- Extend signed broker claims and provider URL validation for Asana.
Require refresh credentials on managed authorization.
- Document setup, distribution, and shared-app rollout requirements.
- Resolve permission-profile name collisions when finishing another
account. The live staging test found this after renaming the first Asana
connection; OAuth succeeded but profile finalization failed.

## Verification

- Final live staging proof used app commit
`c6053157c4e42ac017727117b754ae77fa5c45fa` and the real Cloud broker at
`767b63835170f664542afd0df99a76615e204b62`. In the embedded browser,
default shared sign-in required no client credentials, returned through
the central Cloud callback to the tenant, and discovered 39 actions. Get
me succeeded through the gateway as the selected QA agent (2.1 seconds).
The custom-app connection also returned a real result on this final
build (0.9 seconds).
- Retried the shared draft that failed during the first staging test. It
completed after the profile-name fix, retained the selected agent, and
kept the existing custom connection intact. Two database regressions
reproduced the collision before the fix and passed afterward. The
updated transaction rollback test also passes.
- Shared reconnect returned to the same staging connection with 39
actions. Earlier staging checks verified the custom-app fallback when
the shared profile was unavailable, saved-secret reuse on reconnect, and
Off blocking the action test. Allowed was restored after that check.
- Local live-provider checks also repaired a saved Asana v1
issuer/resource binding without reentering the secret and verified that
numeric-loopback setup uses the displayed localhost callback. Expiring
the local managed access-token timestamp triggered a real Asana refresh
and a successful Get me call. These early local broker tests used
enrollment/authentication and storage fixtures; the final staging proof
used deployed Cloud identity and persistent storage.
- The new production app is registered and configured, but production
sign-in has not been deployed or verified. Live provider revocation was
not run because the existing staging test app is shared with other
connections.

- After rebasing onto the single-screen setup flow, full `pnpm -r
typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and `pnpm check:token-gates` pass. Focused
verification passes 365 service and 36 broker-client tests. Broader
checks pass all 833 shared-package tests and all 530 connector-page
tests. The shared suite uses `TMPDIR=/private/tmp` to avoid macOS
temporary-directory symlinks in its canonical-path tests. The UI tests
verify the shared-app default and switching to a custom app with its
required client secret.
- Embedded-browser smoke on the current rebased build verified the
shared sign-in default, Advanced → custom app (client ID and secret
required), and switching back to Paperclip. Both existing Asana
connections remained connected after restart. No new provider
authorization was performed during this smoke.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` was interrupted when the execution
session restarted. Before interruption, it reported one runtime-slot
restart test failure. That test passed on an isolated retry after
clearing two unused PostgreSQL shared-memory segments. The full local
suite did not complete; CI must pass on the current head before merge.
- All 52 CI and security checks pass on
`9318fd4e9b616cdc3de12f40cdb9bd32d865af4c` (CI run `36882064080`),
including all eight browser shards, nine serialized-server shards,
build, typecheck, and canary dry run. Two optional Storybook checks were
skipped. Greptile review 4 reports 5/5 on this exact commit, with all
review threads resolved. Its updated summary identifies the current SHA;
this comment-triggered review did not publish a separate GitHub check
run.
- Provider revocation is unit-tested in the companion broker. Live
provider revocation was not run because the existing test app is shared
with other connections.

## Risks

- The shared Paperclip Asana MCP app has been registered with its
production callback and Any workspace distribution. Its secret is
provisioned in the production secret store, and the runtime client ID
and secret reference are configured. The production profile is enabled
in the saved deployment configuration. The companion broker has merged
and passed staging deployment; production sign-in still requires a
production deployment and live verification. Custom setup remains
available.
- Asana MCP uses the provider's fixed `default` grant. Paperclip action
policies limit agent tool use; they do not narrow provider consent.
- The callback correction affects HTTP loopback OAuth flows. Public
HTTPS callbacks retain their existing behavior.
- Reviewed discovery URLs now override stale cached endpoints. Tests
cover the Asana v1-to-v2 repair.
- No schema migration. Connection removal retains the existing
local-only revocation behavior.

DottaandPaperclip ad55d0a281 fix(connections): repair personal credentials and request write access (#14739)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents use Apps through a gateway that checks identity, company
access, and action policies.
> - Personal pasted credentials can point to company secrets. Setup can
show success while the gateway rejects every call.
> - Several OAuth methods also omit the scopes needed for their
supported write actions.
> - This pull request gives setup, health checks, and invocation the
same credential rules. Owners repair existing connections by
reconnecting.
> - New connections request reviewed permissions for their supported
actions. Read-only choices remain available under Advanced.
> - Agents can use the connections people give them, while existing
consent, identity boundaries, and action restrictions remain enforced.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14009 and #14008. This addresses the personal-credential defect.
The separate GitHub organization-identity selection defect is outside
this change.

Related work: #13942 fixed part of new personal-key setup. #14200
independently fixes legacy personal reconnect and protects managed-agent
profile credentials during removal. This PR covers that ownership
invariant across key and secret-URL setup, reconnect, health, discovery,
and invocation, and keeps owner reconnect as the repair path. #14059
tracks requested versus provider-asserted OAuth scopes; it remains
separate work. I searched open PRs and issues for Zapier, Airtable
scopes, connector writes, and personal credential failures.

**What happened?**

A Zapier secret URL saved through personal setup can become a company
secret referenced by a user grant. Health checks bypass the gateway's
ownership check, so the connection appears healthy but calls fail with
`grant_credential_invalid`. Custom-header paths can also receive a
duplicate `credentials.` prefix. Omitted OAuth scopes make write access
depend on provider defaults.

**Expected behavior**

Personal invocation credentials belong to the selected user. Setup,
health, and actual calls enforce the same rule. New connections request
documented permissions for supported read and write actions. Existing
tokens gain no permissions without provider consent.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Connect Zapier or a generic secret URL with the personal identity.
2. Allow an agent to use the connection and complete setup.
3. Invoke a tool through a run-scoped gateway. The legacy layout fails
ownership validation despite successful setup.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The implementation started from
`44736c9c7c67b7b646ead9d51721db10f5b83835` and was rebased onto master
at `94e8dec56`.

**Deployment mode**

Built from source. Regression tests use isolated PostgreSQL fixtures and
controlled MCP transports.

## What Changed

- Share credential writing, ownership validation, and canonical paths
across initial setup, resume, reconnect, rotation, health, discovery,
and gateway calls. Keep OAuth client-registration secrets separate from
invocation credentials.
- Existing personal connections with company-scoped credentials require
owner reconnect with a fresh key or secret URL. Reconnect creates a
correctly owned value and updates the existing grant and declarations.
There is no automatic ownership backfill or new startup hook.
- Preserve PostgreSQL timestamp precision when reconnect checks whether
a grant changed. Previously, converting the timestamp to a JavaScript
Date could reject reconnect with a false concurrent-change error.
- Protect credentials used by other grants, connections, bindings,
managed-agent profiles, routine triggers, or secret proposals from
connection removal.
- Review all 117 tool methods, including 84 OAuth methods. Record
explicit scopes or documented provider-default exceptions with official
evidence. Add Airtable's seven scopes, Hugging Face repository/job
scopes, and other documented MCP permissions.
- Prefer available write-capable methods. Put explicit read-only choices
under Advanced. Explain pasted-key permissions and offer reconnect for
missing OAuth consent. Preserve existing grants, policies, Google
availability gates, and curated scope allowlists.
- Reconnect generic secret URLs and custom headers using their stored
credential fields. Refresh the catalog after setup, correct reconnect
feedback and error guidance, and let Cancel exit invalid setup while
Save & exit retains draft-saving behavior.
- Apply ownership checks to the new GitHub repository/skill connection
picker. Align the permission audit with the Google scope reductions
merged on master.
- Add run-scoped gateway, ownership, owner-reconnect, OAuth URL,
insufficient-scope, UI, and catalog-wide regression coverage. Update the
connector playbook and permission audit.

## Verification

Latest commit `97bc0b86e0eae0ec892e4ac44beff1a66164b20e` passes all
CI/status gates (55 completed check runs, no failures or pending checks)
and has a completed Greptile review at **5/5 with no outstanding
findings**. GitHub reports the PR as mergeable/CLEAN.

- **Embedded browser:** used the actual server and built UI from this
worktree, a fresh isolated database, and local HTTP MCP fixtures.
Completed personal bearer-key, secret-URL, and custom-header setup;
reproduced the legacy ownership failure; reconnected through the owner’s
form; and completed writes afterward. Read-back was verified for
bearer-key and secret-URL connections. Public organization-wide setup
appeared immediately in Browse without reload. Zapier URL
validation/Cancel and Google’s enrollment gate were also exercised.
- **Persistence and invocation:** verified user ownership, canonical
`credentials.authorization` / `remote.url` / `headers.X-Api-Key`
declarations, and unchanged connection/grant identity. The old company
secrets retain their ownership. Separate HTTP calls through an actual
run-scoped gateway session completed a write and read-back.
- **Backend coverage:** the final gateway suite passes all 82 cases,
including catalog Zapier and generic inline reconnect. It checks
company/user isolation, canonical declarations, same-endpoint URL
validation, fresh credentials, retained restrictions, and real gateway
read/write execution using fixture transport. A timestamp with
PostgreSQL microseconds covers the former false reconnect conflict.
- **Local checks:** 368 catalog, gateway, repository, and UI tests
passed before the final extra Zapier case; 49 GitHub skill access tests
also passed. All three Apps browser regressions pass, including
reconnect through the actual form and catalog visibility without reload.
Full `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, server typecheck after the final
patch, and token gates passed. Full tool-access service runs hit varying
15-second Google fixture timeouts; both affected cases and the updated
reconnect assertion pass in isolation (3 tests). The complete test
matrix passes in CI on this head.
- **Verification limits:** no live provider account was available for
Zapier/Airtable/OAuth consent or account-bound write proof. Public
metadata and local fixtures do not establish provider consent. The
original development database clone failed on a pre-existing missing
`tool_connections_transport_check` constraint; browser acceptance used a
fresh isolated database created by the normal CLI onboarding flow.

## Risks

- Existing broken personal connections stay unusable until their owner
reconnects. Health, discovery, and invocation return an actionable
ownership error; startup does not rewrite credential ownership.
- Scope changes affect new authorization requests. Providers may still
require resource selection, account roles, paid plans, or app
verification. Existing consent and action restrictions remain unchanged.
- Shared credentials are retained rather than reassigned or revoked.
Provider-default exceptions and unavailable live checks are documented
in `doc/connections/CONNECTOR-PERMISSION-AUDIT.md`.
- No new endpoint, database table, lockfile change, or CI workflow
change is included.

## Model Used
