Nicky LeachandPaperclip c647b8cc2e feat(acpx-engine): give sandbox.exec spans real parents (#10852)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip uses spans and traces to show how work moves through
agents and tools
> - sandbox.exec spans need a real parent so the trace tree matches the
work tree
> - Wrong parent links make execution history hard to read and hard to
debug
> - This pull request adds a single task.run root span and re-parents
live work to the nearest active span
> - The change keeps detached work under the closest live span instead
of the HTTP root
> - The benefit is a clear trace tree for sandbox.exec work and better
execution diagnosis

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

sandbox.exec spans attached to the wrong parent or to no live parent in
some paths.

**Expected behavior**

Each sandbox.exec span should attach to the nearest live span.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run work that creates sandbox.exec spans during startup and callback
bridge paths.
2. Inspect the trace tree.
3. Observe an orphaned span or a span with the wrong parent.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`672e9de9c8b004aebc1f08e24b612ab067735ad1`

**Deployment mode**

Local dev.

**Additional context**

The branch adds the task.run root span, parents sandbox.startup to it,
and re-parents detached bridge work to the nearest live span.

## What Changed

- Added a task.run root span for the run tree.
- Re-parented sandbox.startup, agent.turn, and detached bridge work to
the nearest live span.
- Added end-to-end trace-tree assertions for the full parent chain.
- Added negative coverage so sandbox.exec does not parent to the HTTP
root.

## Verification

- Focused Vitest suite passed:
`packages/adapter-utils/src/acpx-engine/execute.test.ts`,
`packages/adapter-utils/src/acpx-engine/startup-timing.test.ts`,
`packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target-sandbox.test.ts`,
`packages/adapter-utils/src/sandbox-callback-bridge.test.ts`, and
`server/src/__tests__/environment-execution-target.test.ts`.
- Result: 5 files passed, 204 tests passed.
- The submitted branch also reported `adapter-utils` checks, `server`
seam checks, and `tsc` exit 0 in the handoff state.

## Risks

- This change can alter trace tree shape in tools that read parent
spans.
- A missed bridge path could still point to the wrong live span.
- Low risk for runtime behavior, because the change only changes span
parent attribution.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-5, tool-use capable.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 2ab797dcbe fix(sandbox): reset step store for long-lived bridge work (#10813)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Bridge workers keep startup setup separate from long-lived runtime
work
> - The callback bridge must keep queue-directory setup inside the
startup step
> - The long-lived poll loop must run with no active startup step
> - This pull request keeps that boundary in the right place
> - The benefit is correct span parents and correct runtime exec
metadata

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Bug**

**What happened?**
Long-lived bridge continuations kept a stale startup step store during
the queue-directory setup path.

**Expected behavior**
Runtime exec spans should start with no active startup step.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a bridge lane.
2. Let the startup step end.
3. Run later runtime exec work on the same lane.

**Paperclip version or commit**
223068e2ff

**Deployment mode**
Self-hosted server

## What Changed

- Added `runWithoutActiveStep` in
`packages/adapter-utils/src/acpx-engine/startup-timing.ts`.
- Wrapped the long-lived poll timer, socket handlers, and
callback-bridge worker loop in both bridge lanes.
- Added unit tests for store leak and reset behavior.
- Added continuation tests for both bridge lanes and the `criticalPath`
flag.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils exec tsc --noEmit`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/adapter-utils/src/acpx-engine/startup-timing.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/environment-execution-target.test.ts`

## Risks

- Low risk.
- The change alters async context handling in bridge continuations.
- If a caller depends on inherited step state, this change removes it.
- The tests cover the intended bridge lanes.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-5, tool use enabled.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 53bcf3897f feat: sync @-mentioned projects into remote sandboxes (confined sandbox transport, flag ON) (#10564)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The run layer must move project context into the sandbox that
executes the agent
> - Local sandboxes already stage referenced projects for @-mentions
> - Remote confined sandboxes dropped the whole referenced set, so the
agent lost needed files and paths
> - This pull request keeps the confined sandbox transport aligned with
the local behavior for referenced projects
> - It does this behind a remote-only flag that defaults on, while SSH
keeps the old drop-only path
> - The benefit is that remote runs can read the same referenced project
context that local runs already provide

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting. This change touches server orchestration, sandbox
transport, and observability.

**Problem or motivation**

A run can @-mention another project. Local targets stage each referenced
project and give the agent a path. Remote confined sandboxes dropped the
full referenced set, so the agent could not read those project files or
paths.

**Proposed solution**

Enable referenced-project sync for the confined sandbox transport behind
`PAPERCLIP_MULTI_PROJECT_WORKSPACE_SYNC_REMOTE`, which defaults on. Keep
the SSH transport out of scope and keep it dropping referenced projects.
Repoint each referenced workspace hint at its staged
`project-<projectId>` sandbox directory. Publish
`PAPERCLIP_WORKSPACES_JSON` on the confined sandbox lane. Count each
per-project remote staging failure as a `staging` failure in the
requested-vs-synced metrics.

**Alternatives considered**

Keep the remote path drop-only. That keeps the gap open. Move the change
into SSH too. That expands scope beyond the target transport and adds
risk.

**Roadmap alignment**

No matching item in `ROADMAP.md` showed up in this review.

**Additional context**

The change lands in three commits. The first commit opens the gate for
the confined sandbox transport. The second commit repoints the workspace
hints and publishes the workspace map. The third commit records
per-project staging failure data.

## What Changed

- Opened remote referenced-project sync for the confined sandbox
transport behind `PAPERCLIP_MULTI_PROJECT_WORKSPACE_SYNC_REMOTE`.
- Repointed referenced workspace hints to the staged
`project-<projectId>` sandbox directories and published
`PAPERCLIP_WORKSPACES_JSON`.
- Counted per-project remote staging failures as first-class `staging`
failures in the requested-vs-synced observability.

## Verification

- The pushed ref
`refs/heads/feat/sync-referenced-projects-remote-sandbox` resolves to
the authorized submit SHA.
- `git log --oneline
origin/master..origin/feat/sync-referenced-projects-remote-sandbox`
shows exactly the three expected commits.
- The handoff reports server typecheck clean, adapter-utils typecheck
clean, and the listed unit tests passing.
- The handoff also reports no open review comments and no Greptile score
yet.

## Risks

- The change touches authorization and sandbox path handling, so
regressions could block remote runs or expose the wrong project context.
- The new flag defaults on, so any bug in the remote path affects normal
remote use.
- SSH stays out of scope, so the two transport paths must remain
distinct.

OpenAI GPT-5 via Codex. Tool use enabled. Context window not reported in
this run.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 674d71548a perf(sandbox): fold dead sandbox start round trips (bridge dirs + handle-cache seed) (#10485)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the control plane for AI agents.
> - Sandbox startup uses bridge directories and a Daytona workspace
handle.
> - The cold path made repeat directory creation calls and one avoidable
handle fetch.
> - Those calls add delay but do not change state.
> - This pull request folds the bridge directory setup into one exec,
removes redundant process-session setup, and seeds the Daytona handle
cache at acquire.
> - The benefit is fewer deterministic host-to-sandbox round trips and
faster cold starts.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- Problem: Cold sandbox start does extra directory creation work and
re-fetches a handle it already has.
- Expected result: The startup path should create each directory once
and reuse the fresh handle.
- Related PRs I found on GitHub: #9280, #9293.

## What Changed

- Added `makeDirs` to the bridge queue client and used one `mkdir -p`
exec for the callback bridge directories.
- Removed the two upfront `mkdir` execs for the process-session bridge
stdin and events directories.
- Seeded the Daytona sandbox handle cache at acquire so realize can
reuse the fresh handle.
- Reset the process-scoped cache in the compatibility test so the second
sync run sees the expected exec count.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils exec vitest run` - 351
passed, 4 skipped.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/sandbox-provider-daytona exec vitest run`
- 91 passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils exec tsc --noEmit` - clean.
- I checked `ROADMAP.md` for sandbox round-trip work. I found no
duplicate planned core work for this change.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change removes redundant calls and adds cache seeding.
- A wrong cache scope would hide the handle. The seed now checks the
lease scope and fails loudly.
- The daytona package `tsc --noEmit` still depends on SDK types that are
not installed in this isolated workspace. CI covers that path.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-5, tool-using, with code execution in the current
workspace.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 6a267e0328 feat(sandbox): stage referenced projects into the run sandbox (#10469)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Runs can reference more than one project
> - Each referenced project must land in its own sandbox tree so one run
does not mix files across projects
> - The anchor workspace must keep its own git history and overlay rules
> - Fail closed on sync and confinement errors, and keep the other
projects alive
> - This pull request stages referenced projects into isolated project
directories under the run sandbox root
> - The benefit is safer multi-project runs with clear failure isolation

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists.

Related PR: #10448.

## What Changed

- Thread additional referenced-project sources through the run prepare
path and the runtime layers.
- Stage each referenced project into its own `project-<projectId>`
directory under the runtime root.
- Keep the anchor workspace history and overlay semantics unchanged.
- Fail closed on confinement or sync errors for one project, and keep
the other projects running.
- Keep the path inert by default behind the multi-project workspace-sync
kill-switch.
- No documentation update was needed for this code-only runtime change.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils exec vitest run
src/sandbox-file-sync.test.ts src/command-managed-runtime.test.ts
src/sandbox-managed-runtime.test.ts src/remote-managed-runtime.test.ts`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils exec tsc --noEmit`
- The branch points at `871378e4064a95adc8e4647e442ec1359768de61` on
`origin/feat/stage-referenced-projects-into-sandbox`.
- GitHub CI is green on PR #10469.

## Risks

- A referenced project can skip if confinement or sync fails.
- A new runtime tree layout can affect tools that assume one project
root.
- The kill-switch keeps the path inert until operators enable it.

9ff7e1caf3 perf(adapter-utils): content-hash-skip process-session remote script write + lock inbound round-trip count (#10377)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The sandbox runtime depends on efficiently staging files into remote
environments
> - The process-session bridge was rewriting a static remote script on
every start, even when the remote copy already matched
> - That caused unnecessary round trips and made the startup path
noisier than it needed to be
> - This pull request adds a hash-skip path for the process-session
script write and keeps the existing bridge-entrypoint hash gate on the
same helper
> - It also locks in the reduced inbound round-trip count so the
collapse from the prior PR cannot silently regress
> - The benefit is fewer remote execs on warm starts and a stronger
guard against performance regressions

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- Refs: https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/10354

### Feature request-style description

**Subsystem affected**
- Cross-cutting (packages/adapter-utils and sandbox staging helpers)

**Problem or motivation**
- The process-session bootstrap path was rewriting a static remote
script on every start even when the remote file already matched the host
content.
- That added avoidable remote execs and latency to warm starts.
- The inbound staging collapse from the previous PR also needed a
regression lock so it could not silently drift back to extra round
trips.

**Proposed solution**
- Route the process-session remote script upload through the existing
hash-skip helper used by the sandbox callback bridge entrypoint.
- Keep the bridge-entrypoint behavior unchanged by delegating it to the
same helper.
- Add a regression test that asserts the inbound staging path still
collapses to the expected round-trip count.

**Alternatives considered**
- Keep the existing unconditional write path and accept the extra execs
on warm starts. Rejected because it preserves avoidable overhead.
- Add a second specialized helper just for process-session scripts.
Rejected because the bridge-entrypoint logic already solved the same
problem and should stay aligned.

**Roadmap alignment**
- This fits the roadmap items around cloud/sandbox agents and enforced
outcomes by reducing bootstrap waste and preventing performance
regressions.
- It does not introduce new product surface area, telemetry, or
user-facing workflow changes.

**Additional context**
- The implementation preserves the existing upload/verify/rename
behavior when the remote content differs and only skips the write when
the hash already matches.
- PR #10354 collapsed the inbound staging path; this PR preserves that
win.

## What Changed

- Added a shared hash-skip helper for remote text-file synchronization
so unchanged content skips the write path after a single remote hash
check.
- Switched the process-session remote script upload to use that helper,
preserving the existing write/verify/rename behavior when the remote
content differs.
- Refactored the sandbox callback bridge entrypoint sync to use the same
helper without changing its observable behavior.
- Added a mocked-native-runner regression test that locks the inbound
staging path to one `client.syncIn` round-trip per step and zero direct
write/run execs.

## Verification

- `tsc --noEmit`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils exec vitest run`
- Full adapter-utils vitest sweep: 338 passed / 4 skipped

## Risks

- Low risk: the helper changes when a write occurs, not the script
contents or the remote execution surface.
- A hash-check failure now fails loudly instead of silently rewriting,
which is safer but could surface provider-side issues earlier than
before.
- The regression test is intentionally specific to the current collapsed
staging path, so future architectural changes will need test updates.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex (GPT-5, tool-using coding agent)

a3b293e26d perf(adapter-utils): parallelize the two Daytona sandbox bridge setups (#10334)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip runs AI-agent work through adapter-backed execution paths.
> - Sandbox-backed local adapters pay startup overhead in two host-side
bridge setups.
> - Those setups were happening serially even though most of the work is
independent.
> - The remaining dependency is only the merged env that must reach the
process-session launch.
> - This pull request overlaps the independent setup work while
preserving that launch-time dependency.
> - The benefit is lower end-to-end startup latency without changing
execution semantics.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this change.

Problem / motivation:
- Sandbox-backed local adapter startup waited for two largely
independent bridge setups in series, so users paid roughly the sum of
both setup times.
- The only hard dependency is the merged Paperclip env that must reach
the process-session launch.

Proposed solution:
- Start the paperclip callback bridge and the process-session bridge
concurrently.
- Keep the env merge as the single sequencing point before
process-session launch.
- Stop whichever bridge started if either startup path fails.
- Keep the concurrent bridge telemetry duration-only so shared runner
counters are not double-counted.

Alternatives considered:
- Keep the bridges serial, which preserves the current telemetry shape
but leaves the startup latency unchanged.
- Move env merging earlier, which would complicate launch ordering and
risk changing runtime semantics.

Roadmap alignment:
- This is the approved Daytona start-speedup work, focused on bridge
startup concurrency rather than broader runtime behavior.

## What Changed

- Started the paperclip callback bridge and the process-session bridge
concurrently in `execute.ts`.
- Added a memoized env finalizer so the process-session launch still
waits for the merged paperclip env at the correct moment.
- Updated `execution-target.ts` so the process-session bridge can accept
a deferred env resolver and consume it only at launch time.
- Added tests that cover the overlapped launch path and the
failure-cleanup path when one bridge start fails.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils exec vitest run
src/acpx-engine/execute.test.ts`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils test`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils exec tsc --noEmit`
- `git log --oneline
origin/master..origin/perf/parallelize-daytona-bridge-setups`
- `git diff --stat
origin/master...origin/perf/parallelize-daytona-bridge-setups`

## Risks

- A regression in the launch-time env merge could change what the
process-session bridge sees at startup.
- The concurrent start/cleanup logic could leak a bridge if the stop
paths were incorrect, which is why the failure cleanup test matters.
- This is low-to-moderate risk because the change is isolated to
adapter-utils startup plumbing and is covered by targeted tests.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-5, tool-using code execution mode.

DottaandPaperclip 4e00818574 fix(runtime): support in-place workspace realization (#10230)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the control plane people use to coordinate AI agents
and their execution environments.
> - Environment realization decides where an agent runs and which
filesystem and toolchain are authoritative.
> - Copy-based realization is unsafe for container-anchored tasks
because absolute paths such as `/app` can point outside the synchronized
tree and task-specific binaries may be absent.
> - That mismatch can let an agent successfully verify work in a phantom
writable path while sync-back silently discards the result.
> - Existing task environments already provide the authoritative
filesystem and toolchain, so they should be executed in place rather
than copied.
> - Copy mode still needs explicit confinement rules so aliases target
the synchronized workspace and unsynchronized writable paths fail
visibly.
> - This pull request adds typed realization metadata, propagates the
authoritative root through orchestration, and teaches Codex to honor it.
> - The benefit is that container-anchored tasks operate on
verifier-visible state with the intended tools, while copy mode remains
safe and backward compatible.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this defect.

GitHub duplicate searches for in-place execution, workspace realization,
and authoritative workspace roots found no related pull request to link.

### What happened?

Environment-backed agent runs were always realized through a copied
workspace. Tasks anchored to absolute container paths could therefore
write outside the synchronized tree, and task-provided toolchains were
unavailable in the copy. A run could report success even though
sync-back discarded its output.

### Expected behavior

Existing task environments should run against their real authoritative
root and toolchain. Copy-mode runs should map declared absolute aliases
into the synchronized tree and reject writable paths that cannot be
restored.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Run a Codex task environment whose required files live under `/app`
or `/workspace` and whose required binary exists only in the task
container.
2. Observe that copy realization changes the effective
filesystem/toolchain or permits writes outside the synchronized root.
3. Complete and verify the task inside the agent sandbox.
4. Observe that the verifier cannot see out-of-tree artifacts or that
task-specific commands were unavailable.

### Reproduction context

- Paperclip commit: `3a16b91217483d2c233926de5b7f7bc3a1077924`
- Deployment: built from source in a task-container execution
environment
- Adapter: Codex local
- Database: not database-related
- Access context: agent execution

## What Changed

- Added typed `copy | in_place` workspace-realization metadata,
authoritative roots, confined aliases, and outbound restore paths to
shared execution-target contracts.
- Selected in-place realization for existing task environments and
skipped archive prepare/restore when the authoritative environment is
used directly.
- Propagated the authoritative root into adapter context so Codex uses
it for cwd and `PAPERCLIP_WORKSPACE_*` semantics, including ACP
execution.
- Bound copy-mode aliases such as `/app` to the synchronized workspace
and rejected writable out-of-tree paths without explicit restore
mappings.
- Added focused regression coverage while preserving existing copy-mode
archive restore behavior.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/adapter-utils/src/local-process-sandbox.test.ts
packages/adapters/codex-local/src/server/acp.test.ts
packages/adapters/codex-local/src/server/execute.remote.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-run-orchestrator.test.ts` — 48 passed,
4 skipped.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` — passed.
- `env -u AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID -u AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY -u
AWS_SESSION_TOKEN pnpm test:run` — passed across all general and
serialized Vitest shards.
- `pnpm build` — passed.
- Codex `k=1` acceptance run completed July 24, 2026 at 23:54:30 UTC
with 4 completed, 0 exceptions, and mean reward 1.0: `build-cython-ext`,
`openssl-selfsigned-cert`, `prove-plus-comm`, and `sqlite-db-truncate`
each received terminal grade 1.0 against real task-environment paths and
toolchains.

## Risks

- In-place mode deliberately exposes the authoritative task root to the
adapter; incorrect environment metadata could point execution at the
wrong root. Typed metadata and focused orchestration tests cover
selection and propagation.
- Copy-mode writable-path validation is stricter and may reject
previously accepted unsafe configurations. The rejection is intentional
and produces a visible error instead of silently losing output.
- The acceptance run is focused on four Codex task-environment
workloads, not a broad cross-adapter benchmark. Existing copy-mode
archive tests and the full repository suite remain green.

cf5ba4bbea feat(adapter-utils): generic per-asset lifecycle-contribution seam (#9778)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip's sandbox managed runtime is responsible for provisioning
the agent's execution environment — it extracts a home directory asset
into the sandbox before the adapter runs.
> - The sandbox runtime core was directly branching on the adapter key
(`codex`) to decide which merge scripts to stage and which merge-extract
command to run, coupling generic infrastructure to a specific adapter's
credential-merge protocol.
> - This makes it harder to add, remove, or modify per-adapter asset
provisioning without touching the runtime core; it also prevents other
adapters from contributing staged files or a custom extract command at
all.
> - The fix is to move the adapter-specific knowledge into the adapter
itself: the asset descriptor gains optional `provision` (stageFiles +
extractCommand) and `restore` contribution fields that any adapter can
populate, and the runtime core consumes them generically.
> - This pull request introduces those contribution fields, wires the
Codex adapter's inbound credential-merge as a `provision` contribution,
and removes the adapter-specific branching from the runtime core.
> - The benefit is a clean seam: the runtime core is now
adapter-agnostic for asset provisioning, the inbound behavior is
unchanged (same merge matrix, same scripts), and other adapters can
attach custom staged files or extract commands without modifying shared
infrastructure.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No pre-existing public GitHub issue. Describing the problem inline per
the feature template:

**Problem or motivation**

The sandbox managed-runtime asset provisioning in
`sandbox-managed-runtime.ts` branched directly on the adapter key
(`codex`) to decide which merge scripts to stage and which shell command
to use during asset extraction. This tight coupling prevents other
adapters from customizing their provisioning without modifying the
runtime core, and it means the runtime core must import and know about
adapter-specific merge scripts.

**Proposed solution**

Add an optional `provision` contribution (array of `stageFiles` entries
+ an `extractCommand` string) and an optional `restore` contribution to
the asset descriptor returned by adapters. The runtime core now consumes
these generically — if a `provision` contribution is present, it stages
those files and uses the supplied command; otherwise it falls back to
the default `tar -xf` extraction. The Codex adapter populates the
`provision` contribution where it previously depended on core branching.

**Alternatives considered**

Keeping the adapter-specific logic in the core as a documented
exception; rejected because it makes the seam inextensible.

**Roadmap alignment**

Decoupling — removes a latent coupling between the runtime core and a
specific adapter.

## What Changed

- Added `provision` contribution field (`stageFiles: Array<{src, dest}>`
+ `extractCommand: string`) to the `SandboxManagedRuntimeAsset`
descriptor type in `adapter-utils`.
- Added `restore` contribution field (hook for post-restore logic,
populated in a later phase) to the descriptor.
- Removed adapter-key branching (`if adapterKey === 'codex'`) from the
runtime core in `sandbox-managed-runtime.ts`; the core now reads
`provision.stageFiles` and `provision.extractCommand` generically.
- Extracted Codex-specific merge-script paths and the merge-extract
command into `codex-auth-merge-scripts.ts` in `adapter-utils`; the Codex
adapter's `execute.ts` now attaches them as a `provision` contribution
when it builds its managed-home asset descriptor.
- Updated `execution-target.ts` to pass the extended asset type through
to the adapter call site so the new fields are load-bearing end-to-end.
- Added seam-proving unit tests in `sandbox-managed-runtime.test.ts`:
contribution-less asset uses the default path; a non-adapter asset
round-trips the generic provision+restore seam; a structural assertion
verifies the runtime core carries no Codex-specific string literals.
- Added one test in `workspace-restore-merge.test.ts` confirming the
inbound merge matrix is unaffected.

## Verification

```bash
# Unit tests (20 pass):
npx vitest run packages/adapter-utils/src/sandbox-managed-runtime.test.ts packages/adapter-utils/src/workspace-restore-merge.test.ts

# Type-check both affected packages:
cd packages/adapter-utils && npx tsc --noEmit
cd packages/adapters/codex-local && npx tsc --noEmit

# Structural: runtime core carries no adapter string literals
grep -n 'codex\|auth\.json' packages/adapter-utils/src/sandbox-managed-runtime.ts
# Expected: zero matches
```

## Risks

**Low risk.** This is a behavior-preserving refactor: the inbound
provisioning output (which files get staged, which command runs) is
identical to before, now driven by the adapter-supplied contribution
instead of core branching. The existing inbound merge matrix tests are
the regression guard. No change to which bytes cross the sandbox
boundary. The SSH transport is untouched.

## Model Used

- **Provider:** Anthropic
- **Model:** Claude Sonnet 4.6 (`claude-sonnet-4-6`)
- **Context window:** 200 K tokens
- **Capabilities used:** tool use (file read/edit, bash execution,
Paperclip API), extended reasoning over multi-file TypeScript refactor
- **Mode:** agentic (Paperclip ACPX platform)

DottaandPaperclip 98d9360658 feat(adapters): confine local coding processes (#9504)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source control plane people use to manage AI
agents for work.
> - Local coding adapters currently spawn their CLI processes directly
on the Paperclip host.
> - CLI-native approval and sandbox flags do not provide a reliable host
filesystem or network boundary.
> - An agent can therefore inspect unrelated host files or fetch
external material when an operator needs stronger isolation.
> - The confinement must stay opt-in so existing local adapter behavior
does not change unexpectedly.
> - This pull request adds a shared Linux Bubblewrap spawn layer for
workspace filesystem and deny/allowlist network scopes.
> - The benefit is enforceable defense in depth around Codex and Claude
local runs while preserving explicit provider connectivity.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

### What happened?

`codex_local` and `claude_local` processes could read arbitrary host
paths and make unrestricted outbound network requests because Paperclip
did not impose a spawn-level boundary.

### Expected behavior

Operators can opt into a workspace-only filesystem view and either deny
network egress or allow exact provider/API hosts, independently of CLI
approval flags.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Run current `master` on Linux and configure a Codex or Claude local
adapter.
2. Ask the agent to read a canary file outside its active workspace.
3. Ask the agent to `curl` a public host.
4. Observe that both operations succeed without a Paperclip-level
confinement option.

### Environment

- Paperclip commit: `c36f1a4af` / current `master` base.
- Deployment mode: Linux local dev or self-hosted server.
- Installation: built from source.
- Adapters: Codex and Claude Code.
- Database: not related.

## What Changed

- Added a shared Bubblewrap process wrapper with opt-in
`filesystemScope: "workspace"`, managed/extra path mounts, private
`/tmp`, and Linux-only validation.
- Added `networkScope: "deny" | "allowlist"`; both use a private network
namespace, while allowlist mode exposes an exact-host HTTP(S) proxy over
a Unix-socket bridge.
- Wired Codex and Claude local CLI execution through the wrapper and
forced scoped auto runs onto the CLI lane because ACP processes are not
covered.
- Added unit and gated Bubblewrap canaries for outside-file denial,
workspace writes, direct network denial, allowlisted forwarding, and
rejected destinations.
- Documented both scopes, provider allowlist examples, Bubblewrap
requirements, and default-off behavior.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/adapter-utils/src/local-process-sandbox.test.ts
packages/adapters/codex-local/src/server/acp.test.ts
packages/adapters/claude-local/src/server/acp.test.ts` — 34 passed, 4
gated Bubblewrap tests skipped by default.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-codex-local typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-claude-local typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils build`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-codex-local build`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-claude-local build`
- Attempted the gated tests with a vendored Bubblewrap binary; this
container blocks unprivileged namespace setup (`setting up uid map:
Permission denied` / loopback `RTM_NEWADDR: Operation not permitted`),
so kernel-level execution remains for CI or a namespace-enabled Linux
host.

## Risks

- Bubblewrap must be installed and unprivileged user/mount/network
namespaces must be enabled on the host; scoped runs fail clearly if the
prerequisite is missing.
- Allowlist mode depends on the coding CLI honoring standard
`HTTP_PROXY` / `HTTPS_PROXY` variables; custom providers must list every
required exact hostname and port.
- Exact-host allowlists intentionally reject wildcards, which is safer
but may require operators to enumerate multi-host provider setups.
- No behavior changes unless an operator enables `filesystemScope` or
`networkScope`.

> This aligns with the ROADMAP direction toward safer remote and
sandboxed agent environments and does not duplicate an open PR or issue
found in the repository search.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-5.5 (`gpt-5.5`) via Codex CLI, with reasoning, repository
tool use, shell execution, code editing, and test execution. The serving
context-window size is not exposed to the agent.

9cde4e128c feat: run ACP sessions in sandbox execution targets (#9390)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agent adapters (Claude, Codex, Gemini) default to the ACP engine
lane, which needs a live bidirectional stdio session with the agent
process
> - Sandbox execution targets only exposed one-shot command execution,
so every ACP-capable adapter refused remote targets and fell back to the
CLI lane with a "supports only the local Paperclip host" warning
> - Running agents in sandboxes is a core deployment mode, and losing
ACP there means losing streaming updates, structured events, and
default-lane parity with local runs
> - This pull request adds a provider-agnostic process-session bridge
that relays the ACP stdio session into the sandbox over the existing
sandbox runner contract, and updates the adapters to use it
> - The benefit is that the default ACP lane now behaves the same on the
local host and in any sandbox provider, with CLI fallback reserved for
targets that genuinely cannot host a bidirectional session

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No existing public issue covers this; inline description following the
feature request template:

**Problem or motivation**

Configuring an ACP-capable adapter (e.g. Claude) with a sandbox
environment made every run fall back to the CLI lane with the warning
"Claude ACP currently supports only the local Paperclip host, but this
run targets a remote environment." The ACP engine only knew how to spawn
a local subprocess, while sandbox providers only expose one-shot command
execution — so there was no way to hold the bidirectional stdio session
ACP requires.

**Proposed solution**

Add a process-session bridge in `adapter-utils`: a local ACPX-spawnable
proxy script connects to a token-authenticated loopback TCP server,
which relays JSON-framed stdin/stdout/stderr events to and from a small
relay script executed inside the sandbox via the provider's ordinary
runner. Claude/Codex/Gemini adapters now treat sandbox targets with a
runner as ACP-capable, resolve agent commands against the remote target,
and fall back to CLI only when the sandbox exposes no bidirectional
path. The sandbox callback bridge injects a run-scoped API endpoint and
bridge token so the agent inside the sandbox can reach Paperclip
(including work-product handoffs) without ever receiving the host run
JWT.

**Alternatives considered**

A provider-specific lane was prototyped first: Daytona minting SSH
access metadata at lease time, converted into an SSH execution target.
It was dropped because it only worked for providers able to advertise
SSH, added per-provider surface area, and left every other sandbox
provider on the CLI fallback. The merged design rides the one-shot
runner contract all providers already implement; a regression test pins
that sandbox targets stay on the bridge lane even when lease metadata
advertises SSH access.

**Roadmap alignment**

Directly advances the "Cloud / Sandbox agents" roadmap item — agents
running in remote and sandboxed environments keep the same control-plane
behavior as local ones. No overlap with other planned core work.

## What Changed

- `packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target.ts`: new
`startAdapterExecutionTargetProcessSessionBridge()` plus helpers —
writes a token-authenticated local proxy script (spawnable by ACPX) and
a remote relay script synced into the sandbox, with a loopback TCP
server streaming JSON-framed stdio between them; events emitted before
the ACP client attaches are buffered so none are lost.
- `packages/adapter-utils/src/acpx-engine/execute.ts`: the ACP engine
can execute against remote sandbox targets through the bridge instead of
requiring a local subprocess, including remote cwd/env shaping.
- `packages/adapter-utils/src/sandbox-callback-bridge.ts`:
sandbox-scoped API bridging extended to allow work-product handoffs; the
sandbox payload env carries a bridge token, never the host run JWT.
- `packages/adapters/claude-local`, `codex-local`, `gemini-local`
(`src/server/acp.ts`): default-lane selection no longer rejects all
remote targets; command resolution is remote-aware
(`ensureAdapterExecutionTargetCommandResolvable`,
`resolveAdapterExecutionTargetCwd`); the fallback reason is now scoped
to sandboxes that expose only one-shot execution.
- `server/src/__tests__/environment-execution-target.test.ts`: pins that
sandbox targets resolve to the bridge lane, including when lease
metadata advertises SSH access.
- Non-sandbox remote targets (e.g. SSH) keep the CLI lane: the ACP
engine's remote transport is sandbox-only, so default-lane selection
falls back for those targets across all three adapters, and tests
covering CLI-specific remote behavior pin `engine: "cli"` explicitly.
- The bridge authenticates loopback connections before they can own the
session or receive buffered output (token required, idle unauthenticated
peers dropped), and remote event writes are serialized so the exit event
always lands after stdout/stderr have drained.
- Daytona plugin: formatting-only residue from the earlier iteration; no
functional change.

## Verification

- `vitest run` over the touched suites —
`packages/adapter-utils/src/acpx-engine/execute.test.ts`,
`packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target-sandbox.test.ts`,
`packages/adapter-utils/src/sandbox-callback-bridge.test.ts`, the three
adapter `acp.test.ts` files, and
`server/src/__tests__/environment-execution-target.test.ts` — 102 tests
pass.
- End to end: with a Claude agent configured on a Daytona sandbox
environment, the primary-model test now selects the default ACP lane (no
fallback warning), and the full round trip (wake → sandbox execution →
API bridge → comment post) was exercised twice from inside a live
sandbox.

## Risks

- Behavioral shift: adapters that previously always fell back to CLI on
sandbox targets now default to ACP there; `engine=cli` still pins the
CLI lane explicitly.
- The bridge relays stdio as JSON lines over loopback TCP guarded by a
per-session random token; the remote relay runs inside the sandbox under
the provider's runner. Providers with slow one-shot execution will see
higher session startup latency — the CLI fallback remains for genuinely
incapable targets.
- No schema or migration changes.

## Model Used

- Claude Fable 5 (`claude-fable-5`, Anthropic) — extended thinking
enabled, agentic tool use via the Claude Agent SDK harness;
implementation iterated with local Vitest verification.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip cc17f29e7e fix(timeouts): raise sandbox wall-clock backstop to 4h and make acpx_local timeouts self-describing (#9232)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agent runs execute through adapters (e.g. `acpx_local`), which can
run locally, over SSH, or inside sandbox execution targets, each with a
wall-clock execution timeout
> - Sandbox-backed runs defaulted to a 30-minute wall-clock backstop
(`DEFAULT_REMOTE_SANDBOX_ADAPTER_TIMEOUT_SEC = 1800`), which kills
healthy long agent runs that are still making progress — long before the
recovery watchdog's 4h critical threshold would even consider them stuck
> - On top of that, `acpx_local` resolved its timeout directly from
`adapterConfig.timeoutSec` instead of the shared execution-target
resolver, and its timeout failures surfaced as a bare `Timed out after
Ns` — giving operators no clue which timer fired or which knob raises it
> - This pull request raises the sandbox backstop to 4h (aligned with
the recovery watchdog), routes `acpx_local` through the shared timeout
resolver, logs the effective timeout and its source at run start, and
makes every timeout error message self-describing
> - The benefit is that long-running sandbox agent runs no longer die at
30 minutes, and when a wall-clock timeout does fire, the run log states
exactly which timer fired and how to configure it

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #4535 (related: wall-clock execution timeouts killing agent runs
that are still making progress — that issue covers a different hardcoded
600s timer, but the operator pain is the same).

No exact public issue exists for this one, so describing it in-PR:

**Bug:** A long sandbox-backed `acpx_local` agent run was killed with a
bare `Timed out after 1800s` even though the agent was actively working.

- **What happened:** The run hit the 30-minute
`DEFAULT_REMOTE_SANDBOX_ADAPTER_TIMEOUT_SEC` backstop. `acpx_local`
never consulted the shared execution-target timeout resolution (it read
`adapterConfig.timeoutSec` directly, default 0), so on sandbox targets
the sandbox-provider default applied with no adapter-level say. The
resulting error named neither the timer that fired nor the knob that
controls it.
- **Expected:** Healthy long runs should not be killed by a 30-minute
wall-clock backstop when the recovery watchdog only treats runs as
critically stuck after 4h of output silence; and any timeout error
should say which timeout fired and how to raise it.
- **Impact:** Long, legitimate agent runs in sandboxes fail mid-work;
operators waste time reverse-engineering which of several timers
produced "Timed out after Ns".

## What Changed

- `packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target.ts`
- `DEFAULT_REMOTE_SANDBOX_ADAPTER_TIMEOUT_SEC` raised from `1_800` to
`14_400` (4h), with a comment explaining it intentionally matches the
recovery watchdog's `ACTIVE_RUN_OUTPUT_CRITICAL_THRESHOLD_MS` (4h) so
the adapter backstop never fires before the watchdog path.
Output-inactivity monitors remain the primary hang detectors.
- New `resolveAdapterExecutionTargetTimeout(target,
configuredTimeoutSec)` returns `{ timeoutSec, source }` where `source`
is `configured` / `sandbox_default` / `unlimited`. The existing
`resolveAdapterExecutionTargetTimeoutSec` is preserved as a thin
wrapper, so current callers are unaffected.
- New `formatAdapterExecutionTimeoutErrorMessage(resolution)` and
`formatAdapterExecutionTimeoutStartLogLine(resolution)` produce
self-describing messages that name the timer that fired and the
`adapterConfig.timeoutSec` knob that controls it.
- `packages/adapters/acpx-local/src/server/execute.ts`
- `buildRuntime` now resolves the wall-clock timeout through the shared
resolver: sandbox targets default to the 4h backstop, local/SSH keep the
historical "0 = no adapter timeout", and a configured
`adapterConfig.timeoutSec` always wins.
- The executor logs the effective timeout and its source at run start
(`[paperclip] Adapter execution timeout: …`), so a later timeout is
diagnosable from the run log alone.
- All three bare timeout messages (timer cancel reason, turn result
`errorMessage`, catch-path `messageOverride`) now use the
self-describing format.
- `packages/adapters/acpx-local/src/index.ts` — the adapter
configuration doc for `timeoutSec` states the sandbox default and that
the output-inactivity monitor remains the primary hang detector.
- Tests: `packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target-sandbox.test.ts`
and `packages/adapters/acpx-local/src/server/execute.test.ts` (see
Verification).

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils typecheck` — passes
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-acpx-local typecheck` — passes
- `npx vitest run
packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target-sandbox.test.ts

- New/updated test coverage:
- sandbox default resolves to 4h (and the constant is asserted to be `4
* 60 * 60`)
- `resolveAdapterExecutionTargetTimeout` reports `configured` /
`sandbox_default` / `unlimited` sources with the correct precedence
(configured > sandbox default; local/SSH stay unlimited)
- exact wording of the self-describing error message and the
start-of-run log line
- `acpx_local` runtime picks up the sandbox default into `timeoutMs`,
keeps the unlimited local default, honors configured-over-default
precedence, emits the start-of-run log line, and surfaces the
self-describing `errorMessage`/cancel reason when the wall-clock timer
kills a turn

## Risks

- **Behavioral shift:** sandbox-backed adapter runs that previously hit
the 30-minute backstop now run up to 4h before the adapter kills them.
Genuinely hung runs are still caught much earlier by the adapters'
output-inactivity monitors and by the recovery watchdog; the wall-clock
timer is a last-resort kill switch. Operators who relied on the
30-minute default can restore it explicitly via
`adapterConfig.timeoutSec`.
- **Error-message consumers:** any tooling that pattern-matched the
exact `Timed out after Ns` string from `acpx_local` will see the new
self-describing message instead.
- No API or schema changes; `resolveAdapterExecutionTargetTimeoutSec`
keeps its exact signature and behavior (modulo the raised sandbox
default).

Devin FoleyandPaperclip c48feee190 Improve live agent feedback during sandboxed runs (#8915)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A core part of that experience is watching active agent runs without
dropping into raw logs first
> - Local and sandbox-backed adapters already record useful run output,
progress, and tool activity
> - But active issue threads could sit visually stale while the agent
was syncing workspaces, tailing sandbox output, or emitting incremental
tool-call updates
> - Operators need timely, human-readable progress while preserving the
raw transcript underneath
> - This pull request streams sandbox run-log progress into runtime
status, keeps visible issue threads refreshed, and folds repeated ACPX
tool updates into stable transcript cards
> - The benefit is that long-running agent work becomes easier to
supervise without changing the task/comment control-plane model

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this exact change.

Problem/motivation:

- During long-running sandboxed agent work, the issue UI can appear idle
even though the agent is actively syncing, running tools, or producing
incremental output.
- Operators need realtime feedback at the issue-thread layer, not only
after opening raw logs or waiting for the final heartbeat result.
- Related public context: #1808 previously added live-run status dots to
Projects; #4362 touches heartbeat wakeup behavior but is not a duplicate
of this runtime/UI feedback change.

## What Changed

- Added sandbox run-log streaming support and defaulted sandbox-capable
local adapters into the richer live-feedback path.
- Surfaced environment/sandbox sync progress through heartbeat runtime
status with bounded, redacted snippets.
- Added live issue-thread cache patching so visible active runs update
as progress events arrive.
- Folded repeated ACPX `tool_call` updates into one transcript card
instead of stacking duplicate cards.
- Updated adapter docs and added focused regression coverage for sandbox
log streaming, runtime status, ACPX parsing, live updates, transcript
rendering, and issue chat messages.

## Verification

- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/context/LiveUpdatesProvider.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run

- GitHub PR workflow on head `8397953e7b41ccd42e5d9457ee7e4dfb996e4ec5`:
`verify`, build, typecheck/release-registry, e2e, general shards,
serialized server shards, and canary dry run passed.
- Greptile Review on head `8397953e7b41ccd42e5d9457ee7e4dfb996e4ec5`:
Confidence Score 5/5, no unresolved review threads.

## Risks

- Live issue-thread cache patching could miss an edge case for a route
shape not covered by tests.
- Surfacing active-run snippets needs continued care around redaction;
this PR keeps snippets bounded and adds redaction-focused coverage.
- More frequent active-run UI refreshes could expose performance issues
on very large issue threads, though updates are scoped to visible
run/query caches.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-5 via Codex, operating as a tool-enabled coding agent with
shell, git, and repository-editing capabilities. Context window size is
not exposed in this runtime.

a27e5ad002 Add ephemeral sandbox runtime status plumbing (#8593)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Sandboxed agent runs can spend meaningful time preparing a remote
workspace before the agent transcript shows useful output.
> - Operators need short, current progress text for those setup phases,
but that text should not become durable run history.
> - The existing live-run websocket path already carries run updates to
the UI, so the backend can reuse that channel instead of adding polling.
> - This pull request adds an ephemeral runtime-progress contract, a
process-local status store, and heartbeat integration for
sandbox-managed runs.
> - The benefit is a clearer active-run experience without database
migrations or persistent progress rows.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #248

No exact public GitHub issue was found for this status-message plumbing.
The underlying problem is that active sandboxed runs currently have
setup phases, such as workspace sync and restore, where the operator
cannot see concise current progress through the live run state. This PR
addresses that gap for the backend/runtime layer while keeping progress
messages ephemeral.

GitHub search performed for related or duplicate work: `sandbox runtime
status`, `sandbox restore index`, and `runtime progress`. No direct
duplicate PR was found.

## What Changed

- Added shared runtime-progress types and the `heartbeat.run.progress`
live event type.
- Added a process-local heartbeat run runtime-status store with TTL,
bounded/redacted messages, and terminal cleanup.
- Threaded runtime progress callbacks through heartbeat execution and
active/live run serialization.
- Emitted sandbox-managed runtime phase updates for sync, adapter
startup, restore/export, and finalization paths.
- Added backend and adapter-utils tests for ephemeral status behavior,
terminal cleanup, live serialization, and sandbox progress callbacks.

## Verification

- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`
- Local PII scan before push: high-confidence secret patterns, internal
issue links, local user paths, and private URL patterns checked across
all three split diffs; no real secrets or internal links found. The only
secret-like text is an intentional fake test fixture (`sk-test-secret`).
- `git diff --check origin/master..feat/sandbox-runtime-status`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/services/heartbeat-run-runtime-status.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-runtime-state.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/agent-live-run-routes.test.ts
packages/adapter-utils/src/sandbox-managed-runtime.test.ts` — 4 files,
23 tests passed.
- `pnpm run typecheck` passed on both top stacks that include this
branch: `feat/sandbox-status-ui` and `fix/sandbox-restore-index-sync`.
- `pnpm run build` passed on both top stacks that include this branch;
Vite reported existing CSS `::highlight` and chunk-size warnings.
- `pnpm run test:run` was attempted on `fix/sandbox-restore-index-sync`;
it failed in two unrelated broad-suite tests. One depends on this host's
Git default branch behavior, and one depends on local Claude
model-discovery environment. The changed focused suites above pass.

## Risks

- Runtime progress is process-local by design, so status disappears
after TTL, terminal cleanup, or server restart.
- Clients that do not consume `heartbeat.run.progress` simply keep
existing behavior.
- Message redaction is intentionally generic; overly specific phase
details should stay out of runtime-progress payloads.

OpenAI GPT-5 via Codex coding agent, with shell/tool execution in a
local worktree. Exact context-window metadata is not exposed by the
runtime.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 07e98d2b2c feat(adapter-utils): add observable sandbox sync progress (#8395)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the control plane for running AI-agent companies, so
long-running remote work needs to stay observable to human operators.
> - Cloud / sandbox agents are an active roadmap area, and their
workspace sync path is part of the runtime substrate every remote coding
run depends on.
> - In the sandbox and SSH execution-target flows, Paperclip logged that
sync had started, then often went silent for the full transfer window.
> - That made large remote syncs feel stalled and also hid a real
performance problem in the command-managed sandbox upload path.
> - The first part of this pull request threads a throttled
progress-reporting surface through the adapter execution-target stack so
sync and restore work can emit meaningful updates.
> - The second part fixes the command-managed sandbox transport itself:
it removes the old serial 32KB append bottleneck, but also falls back
away from the single-stream path when a provider-backed sandbox runner
cannot surface mid-flight stdin progress.
> - The result is that sandbox and SSH transfers are both faster and
more observable, including the live Daytona-style sandbox case that
previously only emitted `0%` and `100%`.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this bug, so it is described inline
below following the bug report template.

### What happened

- Remote sandbox and SSH workspace syncs could spend a long time
transferring data while only logging a start line (`Syncing workspace
and runtime assets to sandbox environment`) and, at best, a terminal
line.
- In the command-managed sandbox path, the original upload
implementation also paid a large performance cost by appending base64
data in many small sequential remote writes (thousands of serial 32KB
round-trips on a large workspace).
- After the initial transport rewrite, live provider-backed sandbox runs
still only emitted `0%` and `100%` because the single-stream stdin RPC
buffered progress until completion.

### Expected behavior

- Long-running sandbox and SSH syncs should periodically report how much
of the transfer is complete (a percentage and/or MB transferred) so an
operator can tell the run is healthy and making progress rather than
stuck.
- The main sandbox upload path should not be artificially slow.
- A transfer that fails partway should leave an explicit failure marker
in the log rather than a dangling intermediate percentage.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Run an agent against a sandbox (command-managed) or SSH
(remote-managed) execution target with a non-trivial workspace.
2. Watch the run log during the workspace/runtime asset sync phase.
3. Observe that the log shows the sync start line and then stays silent
for the full transfer (live provider-backed sandbox runs only show `0%`
then `100%`).

### Paperclip version or commit

- Branch `PAPA-825-provide-status-updates-when-syncing-sandboxes` off
`master`.

### Deployment mode

- Self-hosted / local instance using sandbox (command-managed) and SSH
(remote-managed) execution targets, including provider-backed sandbox
runners.

## What Changed

- Added shared throttled runtime progress reporting and threaded
`onProgress` through the adapter execution-target surface and adapter
`execute.ts` entrypoints.
- Added sync and restore progress reporting for the command-managed
sandbox path and the SSH/remote-managed path, including git
import/export progress where totals are known.
- Reworked command-managed sandbox transfer behavior so uploads use the
faster single-stream path when appropriate, but fall back to chunked
progress-emitting writes when the runner cannot expose mid-stream stdin
progress.
- Marked provider-backed environment sandbox runners as not supporting
single-stream stdin progress so live sandbox runs emit meaningful
intermediate updates instead of only `0%` and `100%`.
- Emit an explicit terminal failure marker (`failed at NN% (x/y MB)`)
when an SSH/tar transfer rejects, so a failed sync no longer leaves a
dangling intermediate percentage in the log.
- Run the SSH sync/restore size estimate (local directory walk / remote
`du` probe) concurrently with the transfer instead of awaiting it before
opening the pipe, so progress instrumentation no longer adds startup
latency proportional to workspace file count.
- Added and extended focused regression coverage for runtime progress
throttling and the new failure marker, command-managed sandbox
transfers, sandbox orchestration, SSH transfer progress, and environment
execution-target wiring.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/adapter-utils/src/runtime-progress.test.ts
packages/adapter-utils/src/ssh-fixture.test.ts
packages/adapter-utils/src/command-managed-runtime.test.ts
packages/adapter-utils/src/sandbox-managed-runtime.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/adapter-utils/src/command-managed-runtime.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-execution-target.test.ts`
- `npx tsc --noEmit` for `packages/adapter-utils`

## Risks

- The provider-backed sandbox fallback now prefers chunked
command-managed writes when progress hooks are active, so
small-to-medium uploads may trade some raw throughput for observable
intermediate progress on runtimes that cannot surface true mid-stream
stdin progress.
- Progress percentages on tar-based transfers still depend on estimates
in some cases, so operators may briefly see MB-only lines before the
estimate resolves, then near-final clamping before the terminal `100%`
line.
- This PR changes shared execution-target behavior used by multiple
adapters, so regressions would most likely appear in remote runtime
setup/teardown flows rather than in a single adapter.

## Model Used

- Initial implementation: OpenAI GPT-5.4 via Codex local agent
(`codex_local`), high reasoning mode.
- Observability follow-ups (failure marker, concurrent size estimate,
added tests): Claude Opus 4.8 via Claude Code (`claude_local`).

Devin FoleyandPaperclip b24c6909e8 Harden remote sandbox runtime probes, timeouts, and installs (#5685)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Each agent runs inside a sandbox environment so its CLI is isolated
from the host
> - Sandbox-backed adapter runs go through a small set of shared helpers
— `ensureAdapterExecutionTargetCommandResolvable`, the sandbox callback
bridge runner, and per-adapter `SANDBOX_INSTALL_COMMAND` strings
> - When standing up new sandbox provider plugins, the existing helpers
timed out, missed install fallbacks, or leaned on assumptions that only
held for E2B
> - Local adapters (`claude-local`, `codex-local`, `gemini-local`,
`opencode-local`) needed slightly hardened probes so they could install
themselves and validate inside *any* remote sandbox transport, not just
E2B
> - This pull request bundles those runtime fixes so future sandbox
provider plugins inherit a working baseline
> - The benefit is that adding a new sandbox provider plugin no longer
requires touching adapter-utils or each local-adapter probe — the
supporting infra is already correct

## What Changed

- `packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target.ts`: introduce
`DEFAULT_REMOTE_SANDBOX_ADAPTER_TIMEOUT_SEC = 1800` and
`resolveAdapterExecutionTargetTimeoutSec(...)`. Local and SSH adapters
keep the historical "0 means no adapter timeout" behavior;
sandbox-backed runs without an explicit `timeoutSec` get an explicit
30-minute default so remote installs and warm-up don't time out at the
per-RPC default. Plumbed `timeoutSec` through
`ensureAdapterExecutionTargetCommandResolvable` so install probes inside
a sandbox honor adapter-level overrides instead of the bridge's 5-minute
default.
- `packages/adapters/opencode-local/src/index.ts`: switch
`SANDBOX_INSTALL_COMMAND` from `npm install -g opencode-ai` to `curl
-fsSL https://opencode.ai/install | bash`. The npm package reifies four
large prebuilt-binary subpackages in parallel even though only one
matches the host arch; on bandwidth-constrained sandboxes that blew
through the 240s install budget. The official installer fetches one
arch-specific binary and adds `$HOME/.opencode/bin` to PATH via
`~/.bashrc`, which the sandbox-callback-bridge login-shell script
already sources.
- `packages/adapters/{claude,codex,gemini,opencode}-local/`: harden
remote-target probes — pass `--skip-git-repo-check` for Codex when
probing outside a repo, normalize permission flags for Claude, and add
`*.remote.test.ts` coverage that exercises the remote-sandbox path
explicitly for each adapter.
- `packages/adapter-utils/src/sandbox-install-command.{ts,test.ts}`
(new): add `buildSandboxNpmInstallCommand` helper.
`server/src/adapters/registry.ts` + new
`server/src/__tests__/adapter-registry.test.ts`: wire adapter install
commands so they fall back to a writable `$HOME/.local` prefix when
global install isn't available.
- `server/src/__tests__/plugin-worker-manager.test.ts` + new
`server/src/__tests__/fixtures/plugin-worker-delayed.cjs`: pin per-call
timeout overrides so plugin worker exec calls honor the caller's timeout
instead of the worker's default.

## Verification

- `pnpm typecheck`
- `pnpm exec vitest run --no-coverage
packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target-sandbox.test.ts
packages/adapter-utils/src/sandbox-install-command.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run --no-coverage
server/src/__tests__/plugin-worker-manager.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/adapter-registry.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/claude-local-adapter-environment.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/claude-local-execute.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/gemini-local-adapter-environment.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run --no-coverage
packages/adapters/codex-local/src/server/test.remote.test.ts
packages/adapters/opencode-local/src/server/test.remote.test.ts
packages/adapters/codex-local/src/server/codex-args.test.ts
packages/adapters/codex-local/src/server/execute.remote.test.ts
packages/adapters/gemini-local/src/server/execute.remote.test.ts`

All passing locally.

## Risks

- Touches shared `adapter-utils` and several `*-local` adapters. The
30-minute default applies only when both (a) the target is
`remote+sandbox` and (b) no `timeoutSec` is configured — local + SSH
paths are unchanged. New test coverage was added alongside each behavior
change to pin the contracts.
- Switching OpenCode's install command to the official installer is a
behavior change for any operator running OpenCode inside a remote
sandbox. Local installs are unaffected (the `SANDBOX_INSTALL_COMMAND`
only runs when an adapter is being installed inside a sandbox).
- Low risk overall — no migrations, no API surface change.

## Model Used

- Provider: Anthropic
- Model: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context)
- Capabilities used: extended reasoning, tool use (Read/Edit/Bash/Grep),
no code execution beyond local repo commands

778e775c35 Add secrets provider vaults and remote import (#5429)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI-agent companies and needs secrets handling
to work across local development, hosted operators, and governed agent
execution.
> - The affected subsystem is the company-scoped secrets control plane:
database schema, server services/routes, CLI workflows, and the Secrets
settings UI.
> - The gap was that secrets were local-only and operators could not
manage provider vaults or import existing remote references without
exposing plaintext.
> - This branch adds provider vault configuration plus an AWS Secrets
Manager remote-import path while preserving company boundaries, binding
context, and audit trails.
> - I kept the PR to a single branch PR, removed unrelated
lockfile/package drift, rebased the full branch onto the current
`public-gh/master`, and addressed fresh Greptile findings.
> - The benefit is a reviewable implementation of provider-backed
secrets with focused tests covering provider selection, import
conflicts, deleted secret reuse, rotation guards, and AWS signing
behavior.

## What Changed

- Added provider vault support for company secrets, including provider
config storage, default vault handling, health checks, binding usage,
access events, and remote import preview/commit.
- Added an AWS Secrets Manager provider using SigV4 request signing,
bounded request timeouts, namespace guardrails, cached runtime
credential resolution, and external-reference linking without plaintext
reads.
- Added Secrets UI surfaces for vault management and remote import, plus
CLI/API documentation for setup and operations.
- Stabilized routine webhook secret binding paths and SSH
environment-driver fixture bindings discovered during verification.
- Addressed Greptile and CI findings: no lockfile/package drift,
monotonic migration metadata, disabled-vault default races, soft-deleted
secret hiding/recreate behavior, remove behavior with disabled vaults,
soft-deleted external-reference re-import, non-active rotation guards,
managed-secret soft deletion through PATCH, and per-call AWS SDK
credential client churn.
- Rebased this branch onto `public-gh/master` at `0e1a5828` and
force-pushed with lease to keep this as the single PR for the branch.

## Verification

- `git fetch public-gh master`
- `git rebase public-gh/master`
- `git diff --name-only public-gh/master...HEAD | grep
'^pnpm-lock\.yaml$' || true` confirmed `pnpm-lock.yaml` is not in the PR
diff.
- Confirmed migration ordering: master ends at `0081_optimal_dormammu`;
this PR adds `0082_dry_vision` and
`0083_company_secret_provider_configs`.
- Inspected migrations for repeat safety: new tables/indexes use `IF NOT
EXISTS`; foreign keys are guarded by `DO $$ ... IF NOT EXISTS`; column
additions use `ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS`.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed before the Greptile follow-up commits.
- `pnpm test:run` ran the full stable Vitest path before the Greptile
follow-up commits; it completed with 3 timing-related failures under
parallel load: `codex-local-execute.test.ts`,
`cursor-local-execute.test.ts`, and `environment-service.test.ts`.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/codex-local-execute.test.ts
src/__tests__/cursor-local-execute.test.ts

## Screenshots

Before: the provider-vault and remote-import surfaces did not exist on
`master`; these are after-state screenshots from the Storybook fixtures.

## Risks

- Migration risk: this adds new secret provider tables and extends
existing secret rows. The migrations were checked for monotonic ordering
and idempotent guards, but reviewers should still inspect upgrade
behavior carefully.
- Provider risk: AWS support uses direct SigV4 requests. Automated tests
cover signing, request timeouts, vault-config selection, namespace
guardrails, pending-version archival, sanitized provider errors, and
service-level cleanup paths. A real-vault AWS smoke test remains
deployment validation for an operator with AWS credentials rather than
an unverified merge blocker in this local branch.
- UI risk: the Secrets page and import dialog are large new surfaces;
screenshots are included above for reviewer inspection.
- Verification risk: the full local stable test command hit
parallel-load timing failures, although the exact failed files passed
when rerun directly.
- Operational risk: remote import intentionally avoids plaintext reads;
operators must understand that imported external references resolve at
runtime and may fail if AWS permissions change.

Devin Foley 12cb7b40fd Harden remote workspace sync and restore flows (#5444)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - When an agent runs against a remote target, Paperclip syncs the
workspace out to the remote at run start and restores changes back to
the local workspace at run end
> - The previous restore flow naïvely overwrote local files with
whatever the remote returned, so files that the remote run never touched
but had timestamp/mode drift could be needlessly rewritten — and a
single static `refs/paperclip/ssh-sync/imported` ref made concurrent SSH
workspace exports race on the same git ref
> - This pull request adds a `workspace-restore-merge` module that diffs
a pre-run snapshot against the post-run remote state and only writes
back files the remote actually changed; SSH workspace exports now use a
per-import unique ref so concurrent runs can't trample each other
> - Every adapter's execute path threads the snapshot through
`prepareAdapterExecutionTargetRuntime` so the merge has the baseline it
needs
> - The benefit is workspace restores no longer churn untouched files,
and concurrent SSH runs no longer collide on the import ref

## What Changed

- `packages/adapter-utils/src/workspace-restore-merge.{ts,test.ts}`: new
module — directory snapshot (kind/mode/sha256/symlink target) plus
snapshot-aware merge that writes only the files the remote changed
- `packages/adapter-utils/src/ssh.ts`: SSH workspace export uses a
per-import unique ref (`refs/paperclip/ssh-sync/imported/<uuid>`);
restore goes through the new merge helper; `ssh-fixture.test.ts` covers
the unique-ref + merge paths
- `packages/adapter-utils/src/sandbox-managed-runtime.ts` +
`remote-managed-runtime.ts`: thread the snapshot/merge through the
sandbox and SSH paths
- `packages/adapter-utils/src/server-utils.{ts,test.ts}` +
`execution-target.ts`: helpers for capturing the pre-run snapshot;
`prepareAdapterExecutionTargetRuntime` gains required `runId` and
optional `workspaceRemoteDir`, and returns the realized
`workspaceRemoteDir`
- Each adapter's `execute.ts` (acpx, claude, codex, cursor, gemini,
opencode, pi) takes the snapshot at run start and passes it through to
the runtime restore
- Remote execute test mocks updated to match the new
`prepareWorkspaceForSshExecution` return shape and the per-run
`${managedRemoteWorkspace}` cwd subdirectory

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run --no-coverage --project @paperclipai/adapter-utils
--project @paperclipai/adapter-acpx-local --project
@paperclipai/adapter-claude-local --project
@paperclipai/adapter-codex-local --project
@paperclipai/adapter-cursor-local --project
@paperclipai/adapter-gemini-local --project
@paperclipai/adapter-opencode-local --project
@paperclipai/adapter-pi-local` — 196/196 passing
- `pnpm typecheck` clean across the workspace

## Risks

Medium. The restore path now writes a strict subset of what it
previously did — files the remote did not touch are no longer rewritten.
If any flow was relying on a touch-without-content-change being copied
back (timestamp or permission propagation only), that behavior is now
skipped. Snapshot capture adds an O(N-files-in-workspace) hash pass at
run start; the cost is bounded by the existing exclude list. The `runId`
parameter on `prepareAdapterExecutionTargetRuntime` is now required —
every in-tree caller is updated; out-of-tree adapter authors need to
pass it.

Devin Foley f6bad8f6bf Sanitize remote execution envs at the boundary (#5325)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Adapters spawn CLIs against local, SSH, and sandbox targets,
threading a runtime env through `runAdapterExecutionTargetProcess` and
the SSH/sandbox runners
> - Host identity vars (HOME, TMPDIR, XDG_*, NVM_DIR, PATH) routinely
leak into the env we send to remote targets — sometimes via test probes,
sometimes via runtime config — and break sandboxed/SSH'd CLIs whose own
profiles set those values correctly
> - The sanitization logic existed but lived alongside other helpers in
`server-utils.ts` and was applied piecemeal at adapter callsites, so it
was easy to bypass
> - This pull request lifts the sanitization into a standalone
`remote-execution-env.ts`, applies it at the SSH and sandbox runtime
boundary so every remote spawn goes through it, and removes the
duplicated callsite-level filtering
> - The benefit is identity-bound host env stops leaking across
SSH/sandbox transports regardless of which adapter calls in

## What Changed

- `packages/adapter-utils/src/remote-execution-env.ts`: new module —
single source of truth for which env keys are identity-bound and how to
strip them when the value matches the host's value
- `packages/adapter-utils/src/server-utils.ts`: remove the inline
sanitization (now in `remote-execution-env.ts`)
- `packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target.ts`: apply sanitization
at the sandbox runtime boundary
- `packages/adapter-utils/src/ssh.ts`: apply sanitization at the SSH
spawn boundary
- `packages/adapters/opencode-local/src/server/test.ts`: drop
now-redundant callsite filtering
- `packages/adapters/pi-local/src/server/test.ts`: drop now-redundant
callsite filtering
- New tests `execution-target.test.ts` and
`execution-target-sandbox.test.ts` cover the sanitizer flow at both
transports, including positive cases (host-shaped path stripped) and
explicit-override preservation

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run --no-coverage --project @paperclipai/adapter-utils
--project @paperclipai/adapter-opencode-local --project
@paperclipai/adapter-pi-local`
- `pnpm typecheck` clean

## Risks

Low–medium. The sanitization is now applied at one layer (boundary)
instead of N (callsites), so behavior is more consistent. Any adapter
that previously relied on a leaked host var landing on the remote shell
would now see it stripped — but those reliances were what this change
exists to fix.

Devin Foley 9578dc3da7 Wire per-adapter sandbox install commands through test and execute paths (#5280)
> **Stacked PR.** Sits on top of the e2b sandbox chain — #5278 (stdin
staging) and #5279 (honest-resolvability + login-profiles). The
cumulative diff against `master` includes both of those PRs' content;
the files touched by *this* PR's commit are the new
`maybeRunSandboxInstallCommand` helper in
`packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target.ts` and the per-adapter
`index.ts`/`server/test.ts`/`server/execute.ts` wiring under
`packages/adapters/{claude,codex,cursor,gemini,opencode,pi}-local/`. The
honest resolvability check from #5279 is what gives this PR's install
command a meaningful "did it actually land on PATH" follow-up.

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Sandbox execution targets are ephemeral — each fresh lease starts
from a template image that may or may not have the agent CLIs
preinstalled
> - When a CLI isn't preinstalled, the resolvability probe fails at
`command -v` and the hello probe never runs
> - There's no shared mechanism for "before you probe or provision,
install the CLI on this sandbox"
> - This pull request adds a `SANDBOX_INSTALL_COMMAND` constant per
adapter and a `maybeRunSandboxInstallCommand` helper that runs it via
the existing sandbox login shell, captures structured output, and never
throws (so the resolvability + hello probe still run after); each
adapter's `test()` and `execute()` share the constant so the two
callsites can't drift
> - The benefit is a fresh sandbox lease without a preinstalled CLI now
installs it once via `sh -lc` before the resolvability probe and before
managed-runtime provisioning, with a uniform
`<adapter>_install_command_run` check on the test report

## What Changed

- `packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target.ts`: add
`AdapterSandboxInstallCommandCheck` and `maybeRunSandboxInstallCommand`
(runs the install via existing sandbox shell, captures
exit/stdout/stderr, returns a structured info/warn check, never throws)
- Add `SANDBOX_INSTALL_COMMAND` to each adapter's `index.ts` so `test()`
and `execute()` share a single source of truth
- Wire each of the 6 affected adapter `testEnvironment()`s to call
`maybeRunSandboxInstallCommand` before
`ensureAdapterExecutionTargetCommandResolvable`
- Pass `installCommand: SANDBOX_INSTALL_COMMAND` through
`prepareAdapterExecutionTargetRuntime` in each adapter's `execute()`
- Per-adapter install commands use npm globals where possible so
binaries land on a PATH segment the template already exports:
  - claude → `npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code`
  - codex → `npm install -g @openai/codex`
  - cursor → `curl https://cursor.com/install -fsS | bash`
  - gemini → `npm install -g @google/gemini-cli`
  - opencode → `npm install -g opencode-ai`
  - pi → `npm install -g @mariozechner/pi-coding-agent`

SSH and local targets ignore `installCommand` (SSH runtime takes no such
param; local short-circuits before runtime prep), so this is a no-op for
non-sandbox environments.

## Verification

- `pnpm typecheck` clean
- `pnpm vitest run --no-coverage --project @paperclipai/adapter-utils`
and per-adapter projects pass
- Manual sandbox matrix (claude, codex, cursor, gemini, opencode, pi) —
each goes `install_command_run → resolvable → hello_probe_passed` (Codex
and Pi land on `hello_probe_auth_required`, which is the
configured-credentials problem, not an install issue)
- SSH no-regression: SSH Claude still passes; the helper short-circuits
on non-sandbox targets

## Risks

Medium — adds a network/CPU cost (npm install / curl) on every fresh
sandbox lease. Cost is bounded (one-time per lease, typically tens of
seconds for npm globals), and the helper never throws so a failing
install still lets the report run resolvability and hello probes. If a
sandbox image already has the CLI, the install is an idempotent
reinstall.

Devin Foley af9386f879 Run a real command-v probe and source login profiles before exec in e2b sandboxes (#5279)
> **Stacked PR.** Sits on top of #5278 (`e2b/stage-stdin-to-temp-file`)
which ships the stdin-staging fix this builds on. The cumulative diff
against `master` includes that PR's content; the files touched by *this*
PR's commit are `packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target.ts`,
`packages/plugins/sandbox-providers/e2b/src/plugin.ts`, and
`packages/plugins/sandbox-providers/e2b/src/plugin.test.ts`.

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - The adapter Test flow does an "is the command resolvable?" probe
before running the hello probe so the report distinguishes "binary not
installed" from "binary errored"
> - For sandbox targets, that resolvability check was a no-op
early-return — every sandboxed adapter test reported "Command is
executable" regardless of whether the binary existed
> - That made the resolvability check disagree with the hello probe in a
way that looked like a PATH bug, when it was actually a missing CLI
> - Separately, the e2b spawn used `sandbox.commands.run` with a
non-login non-interactive shell whose PATH did not include npm-globals,
nvm shims, or anything else the template installs via
`.profile`/`.bashrc`
> - This pull request makes the resolvability check honest by running a
real `command -v` invocation through the sandbox runner, and aligns the
e2b spawn with SSH by sourcing login profiles before `exec env KEY=val
<cmd>`
> - The benefit is the e2b sandbox spawn agrees with the hello probe and
finds CLIs at template-installed paths

## What Changed

- `packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target.ts`: add
`ensureSandboxCommandResolvable` that runs `command -v <cli>` through
the sandbox runner; replace the early-return in
`ensureAdapterExecutionTargetCommandResolvable` for sandbox targets
- `packages/plugins/sandbox-providers/e2b/src/plugin.ts`: replace
`buildCommandLine` with `buildLoginShellScript` (sources `/etc/profile`,
`~/.profile`, `~/.bash_profile`, `~/.bashrc`, `~/.zprofile`, and nvm.sh
before `exec env KEY=val <cmd>`); env vars are interpolated inline so
user-configured adapter env always wins over profile-exported values;
drop the now-unused `envs:` SDK option
- `plugin.test.ts` updated for the login-shell wrapping

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run --no-coverage --project @paperclipai/sandbox-e2b` —
17/17 plugin tests pass
- `pnpm vitest run --no-coverage --project @paperclipai/adapter-utils`
clean
- `pnpm typecheck` clean
- Manual: previously every sandboxed adapter said "Command is
executable" then the hello probe failed with "exec: not found". After
this change, missing CLIs surface honestly at the resolvability step.
SSH no-regression: SSH Claude probe still passes.

## Risks

Medium — sandbox adapter Test reports will start failing at the
resolvability step for environments where the CLI was never actually
installed. This was always the real state; the previous "Command is
executable" message was incorrect. Operators should expect
previously-green-but-broken sandbox environments to report accurately.

Devin Foley 90631b09b3 Let adapters declare runtime command spec for remote provisioning (#5141)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies, running
adapter
> commands like `claude`, `codex`, `pi` either locally or on remote
runtimes
>   (SSH hosts, sandboxes, etc.)
> - On a fresh remote runtime — particularly an ephemeral sandbox — the
> adapter's CLI may not be installed yet. Today operators handle this
via
> external configuration (e.g. a project-level `provisionCommand` shell
> script) that has to know about every adapter the operator might want
to use
> - This means every adapter has its own well-known npm package, but
operators
>   end up writing duplicate provision shell scripts that paste together
> `npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code`, `npm install -g
@openai/codex`,
>   etc. — knowledge the adapter itself already has
> - This PR moves that knowledge into the adapter modules: each adapter
declares
> how its runtime command should be detected and (if applicable)
installed
> via `getRuntimeCommandSpec(config)`. The execution path runs the
adapter's
> own install command on remote sandbox targets before launching, so a
fresh
> sandbox bootstraps itself instead of requiring a hand-written
provision script
> - The benefit is fewer footguns for operators provisioning remote
runtimes,
>   and a clean place for new adapters to plug in their install recipe

## What Changed

- New types in `packages/adapter-utils/src/types.ts`:
    - `AdapterRuntimeCommandSpec` describing `command`, optional
      `detectCommand`, and optional `installCommand`
    - Optional `getRuntimeCommandSpec(config)` on `ServerAdapterModule`
- Optional `runtimeCommandSpec` on `AdapterExecutionContext` so adapters
      receive the resolved spec at execute time
- New helper `ensureAdapterExecutionTargetRuntimeCommandInstalled(...)`
in
`packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target.ts` that runs the install
command
on remote targets when `transport === "sandbox"`. SSH and local targets
are
  no-ops. Throws on timeout or non-zero exit so failures surface early.
- Each of `claude-local`, `codex-local`, `cursor-local`, `gemini-local`,
  `opencode-local`, `pi-local`'s `execute.ts` now reads
`ctx.runtimeCommandSpec?.installCommand` and calls the helper before
launching
  the adapter command.
- `server/src/adapters/registry.ts` declares `getRuntimeCommandSpec` for
each
  adapter:
- claude/codex/gemini/opencode/pi-local: `npm install -g <package>`
recipe via
a shared `buildNpmRuntimeCommandSpec` helper, with a defensive guard
that
only auto-installs when the configured `command` matches the well-known
      fallback (custom binaries are left alone).
- cursor-local: declares `command` only; no auto-install (no public npm
      package), preserving the existing manual setup.
- `server/src/services/heartbeat.ts` resolves the spec via
`adapter.getRuntimeCommandSpec?.(runtimeConfig)` and passes it through
to
  `AdapterExecutionContext`.
- Tests added in `execution-target.test.ts` (~75 lines), e2b
`plugin.test.ts` (~32 lines), and `environment-run-orchestrator.test.ts`
  (~76 lines).

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils test`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server test --
environment-run-orchestrator`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/sandbox-providers-e2b test`
- Manual QA: run an adapter (claude/codex/etc.) against a fresh
sandbox-backed
environment that does NOT have the adapter CLI pre-installed. Confirm
the
install runs once at the start of the agent run and the adapter then
launches
successfully. Re-run on the same sandbox; confirm the install command is
  idempotent and the second run starts faster.
- Confirm SSH and local execution paths are unaffected (gated by
  `transport === "sandbox"`).

## Risks

- Behavioural shift on sandbox runs: a new install step now runs at the
start
  of every sandbox agent run for adapters with `installCommand` set. The
install commands are idempotent (`if ! command -v X >/dev/null 2>&1;
then
npm install -g <pkg>; fi`), so this is fast on warm sandboxes. On a cold
  sandbox, the first run takes longer.
- Operators who used the legacy project-level `provisionCommand` to
install
adapter CLIs can drop that part of their script; the adapter handles it
now.
  Existing scripts continue to work — installs are idempotent.
- The cursor-local adapter has no auto-install (no public npm package).
  Behaviour for cursor-local on sandboxes is unchanged.
- New optional surface on `ServerAdapterModule`. Plugins that don't
implement
  `getRuntimeCommandSpec` retain previous behaviour (no auto-install).

Devin Foley 2dce81fbf6 Add optional bridge proxy request logging via PAPERCLIP_BRIDGE_DEBUG (#5140)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Agents on remote sandboxes call back into the Paperclip control
plane via a
> callback bridge — the host process running the bridge proxies HTTP
requests
>   from the sandbox to the Paperclip API
> - When something goes wrong end-to-end (sandbox can't reach Paperclip,
requests
> timing out, malformed responses), it's hard to tell whether the bridge
> processed the request, what URL/method it used, and what the upstream
>   responded with
> - There was no built-in way to log bridge proxy traffic without
modifying
>   adapter code or attaching a debugger
> - This PR adds opt-in stdout logging of every bridge proxy request and
response
> (method, path, query, status), gated behind `PAPERCLIP_BRIDGE_DEBUG`
so it
>   stays off by default
> - The benefit is that operators can flip a single env var to get full
visibility
> into bridge traffic when debugging remote runs, without changing code

## What Changed

- `packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target.ts`:
`startAdapterExecutionTargetPaperclipBridge`'s `handleRequest` now logs
each
  proxied request and response when `PAPERCLIP_BRIDGE_DEBUG` is truthy:
    - `[paperclip] Bridge proxy <METHOD> <path>?<query>` before fetch
- `[paperclip] Bridge proxy response <status> for <METHOD>
<path>?<query>` after
- Logging is no-op when the env var is unset/`"0"`/`"false"`.

## Verification

- Set `PAPERCLIP_BRIDGE_DEBUG=1` in the host process env, run an agent
against
a sandbox-backed environment, confirm the bridge log lines appear in
stdout.
- Unset the env var and confirm no extra log lines appear during normal
runs.

## Risks

- Off-by-default, no observable change for shipping users.
- When enabled, the logging is verbose — every API call from the sandbox
  produces 2 stdout lines. Operators should only enable it during active
  debugging.

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Agents executing on a remote SSH-backed environment need a way to
call back into
>   the Paperclip control plane (run events, log streaming, signals)
> - When the SSH host can't reach the Paperclip host (NAT, firewalls, or
simply not
> on the same network), the run silently fails or hangs — a recurring
class of
>   failure during SSH testing
> - In sandboxed environments we already solved this with a callback
bridge that
> tunnels back through the existing connection; SSH was the odd one out
> - This PR migrates SSH execution to use the same callback bridge, so
every
> adapter's remote run uses one consistent reverse-channel. Per-adapter
SSH glue
> is deleted in favour of a shared `CommandManagedRuntimeRunner` built
from the
>   SSH spec
> - The benefit is fewer SSH-specific failure modes, a smaller code
surface, and
>   one place to evolve the callback contract going forward

## What Changed

- Added `createSshCommandManagedRuntimeRunner` in
`packages/adapter-utils/src/ssh.ts` that adapts an SSH spec into a
generic
  command-managed-runtime runner (with cwd, env, and timeout handling)
- Removed `paperclipApiUrl` from `SshRemoteExecutionSpec`; the bridge
URL now flows
  through the shared runner
- Reworked `execution-target.ts` to use the SSH runner alongside sandbox
runners
  via a unified `CommandManagedRuntimeRunner` interface
- Simplified `remote-managed-runtime.ts` and
`sandbox-managed-runtime.ts` to consume
  the shared runner abstraction
- Deleted per-adapter SSH callback wiring from claude-local,
codex-local,
  cursor-local, gemini-local, opencode-local, pi-local execute.ts files
- Removed `environment-runtime-driver-contract.test.ts` (the contract is
now
  enforced by `environment-execution-target.test.ts`)
- Added/updated `execute.remote.test.ts` cases for each adapter to cover
the SSH
  runner path

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils test`
- `pnpm test -- execute.remote` (covers all six local adapters' SSH
paths)
- Manual QA: ran a claude-local agent against an SSH-backed environment,
confirmed
the agent successfully called back to `/api/agent-callback/*` endpoints
during
  the run

## Risks

- Refactor touches all six local adapters. If any adapter had subtle
SSH-specific
behaviour that wasn't captured in tests, it could regress. Mitigation:
each
  adapter's `execute.remote.test.ts` was extended.
- `paperclipApiUrl` removal from `SshRemoteExecutionSpec` is a breaking
type change
for any internal consumer. Verified no external plugins consume this
type.
- The new `CommandManagedRuntimeRunner` shape is a public surface in
`@paperclipai/adapter-utils`; downstream plugins implementing custom
runners may
  need updates, but no such plugins exist in this repo.

Devin Foley a7b45938b7 Let sandbox providers declare shell defaults (#5114)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Agents execute in sandboxed remote environments served by pluggable
sandbox
>   providers (E2B today, more later)
> - Today every sandbox command runs under `sh -lc` regardless of what
the
>   provider's container actually ships
> - That misses bash-only shell init on E2B (which ships bash) and
prevents
> future providers from declaring a different default — there's no way
for a
>   provider to say "I have bash, use it"
> - This PR adds a `shellCommand` field to sandbox execution targets so
providers
> can declare their preferred shell ("bash" for E2B), threads it through
the
> sandbox-managed-runtime client, callback bridge, and execution-target
shell
>   helper, and validates the value at the lease-metadata boundary
> - The benefit is that sandbox commands run under the right shell on
the right
> provider, and adding new sandbox providers only needs to declare a
shell
>   preference

## What Changed

- Added `packages/adapter-utils/src/sandbox-shell.ts` exporting
`preferredShellForSandbox(shellCommand)` (returns `"bash"` if input is
`"bash"`,
  else `"sh"`)
- Added `shellCommand?: "bash" | "sh" | null` to
`AdapterSandboxExecutionTarget`
  and `CommandManagedRuntimeSpec`; threaded it through
`runAdapterExecutionTargetShellCommand`,
`prepareAdapterExecutionTargetRuntime`,
  and `startAdapterExecutionTargetPaperclipBridge`
- `createCommandManagedRuntimeClient`, `prepareCommandManagedRuntime`,
and
`createCommandManagedSandboxCallbackBridgeQueueClient` now take an
optional
  `shellCommand` and use `preferredShellForSandbox` to pick the shell
- `startSandboxCallbackBridgeServer` accepts a `shellCommand` for its
server
  startup, readiness probe, and stop hook
- E2B sandbox plugin declares `shellCommand: "bash"` in `leaseMetadata`
- `resolveEnvironmentExecutionTarget` reads `shellCommand` from lease
metadata
  (validating against `"bash" | "sh" | null`)
- `environment-runtime.ts` adds `"shellCommand"` to
`INTERNAL_PLUGIN_SANDBOX_CONFIG_KEYS`
so the field round-trips through internal plugin config without leaking
to
  external plugin metadata
- Updated tests in `command-managed-runtime.test.ts`,
  `execution-target-sandbox.test.ts`, `sandbox-callback-bridge.test.ts`,
  `environment-execution-target.test.ts`

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils test`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server test --
environment-execution-target`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/sandbox-providers-e2b test`
- Manual QA: boot a Paperclip instance, create an E2B-backed
environment, run a
claude_local agent against it, and confirm the run completes (verifies
bash
  shell semantics flow through the callback bridge end-to-end)

## Risks

- E2B sandbox commands now run under `bash -lc` instead of `sh -lc`.
Bash is a
strict superset for the commands we issue (no busybox-only flags in our
shell
scripts), so risk is low. The shellCommand field is opt-in via lease
metadata —
  providers that don't declare it stay on `sh`.
- New optional field on `CommandManagedRuntimeSpec` and
`AdapterSandboxExecutionTarget`.
  Consumers ignoring the field retain previous behaviour (sh).
- Lease metadata now carries an additional field. Existing leases
without
`shellCommand` resolve to `null` and fall back to sh — backwards
compatible.

Devin Foley a4ac6ff133 Add sandbox callback bridge for remote environment API access (#4801)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Agents can run inside sandboxed environments like E2B, which are
isolated from the host network
> - Sandboxed agents need to call back to the Paperclip API to report
progress, post comments, and update issue status
> - But sandbox environments cannot reach the Paperclip server directly
because they run in isolated network namespaces
> - This PR adds a callback bridge that proxies API requests from the
sandbox to the Paperclip server, running as a local HTTP server on the
host that forwards authenticated requests
> - The bridge is started automatically when an adapter launches a
sandbox execution, and torn down when the run completes
> - The benefit is sandboxed agents can interact with the Paperclip API
without requiring network-level access to the host, enabling E2B and
similar providers to work end-to-end

## What Changed

- Added `sandbox-callback-bridge.ts` in `packages/adapter-utils/` — a
lightweight HTTP bridge server that accepts requests from sandbox
environments and proxies them to the Paperclip API with authentication
- Added request validation and security policy: the bridge only forwards
requests to the configured API URL, validates content types, enforces
size limits, and rejects non-API paths
- Wired the bridge into all remote adapter execute paths (claude, codex,
cursor, gemini, pi) — the bridge starts before the agent process and the
bridge URL is passed via environment variables
- Updated `environment-execution-target.ts` to prefer the explicit API
URL from environment lease metadata for sandbox callback routing
- Fixed Claude sandbox runtime setup to work with the bridge
configuration
- Added comprehensive test coverage for bridge request handling, policy
enforcement, and sandbox execution integration
- Fixed browser bundling — the bridge module is excluded from the
frontend bundle via the adapter-utils index export

## Verification

- `pnpm test` — all existing and new tests pass, including bridge unit
tests and sandbox execution integration tests
- `pnpm typecheck` — clean
- Manual: configure an E2B environment, run an agent task, verify the
agent can post comments and update issue status through the bridge

## Risks

- Medium. This is a new network-facing component (HTTP server on
localhost). The security policy restricts forwarding to the configured
API URL only and validates all requests, but any proxy introduces attack
surface. The bridge binds to localhost only and is scoped to the
lifetime of a single agent run.

Devin Foley 9b99d30330 Add dedicated environment settings page and test-in-environment (#4798)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Agents run inside environments (local, SSH, E2B sandbox)
> - Operators need to configure and manage these environments
> - But environment settings were buried inside the general company
settings page, making them hard to find
> - Additionally, when testing an agent from the configuration form, the
test always ran locally regardless of which environment was selected
> - This PR moves environments into a dedicated top-level company
settings section and wires the "Test Environment" button to run inside
the selected environment
> - The benefit is operators can find and manage environments more
easily, and the test button now validates the actual environment the
agent will use

## What Changed

- Added a dedicated `CompanyEnvironments` settings page with its own
route and sidebar entry
- Updated `CompanySettingsSidebar` and `CompanySettingsNav` to include
the new environments section
- Modified the agent test route (`POST /agents/:id/test`) to accept an
optional `environmentId` parameter
- Updated all adapter `test.ts` handlers to resolve and use the
specified execution target environment
- Added `resolveTestExecutionTarget` to `execution-target.ts` for remote
environment test resolution with cwd fallback
- Moved the "Test Environment" button and its feedback display into the
`NewAgent` page footer for better UX flow

## Verification

- `pnpm test` — all existing and new tests pass
- `pnpm typecheck` — clean
- Manual: navigate to Company Settings, confirm "Environments" appears
as a top-level section
- Manual: configure an agent with a non-local environment, click "Test
Environment", confirm the test runs inside that environment

## Risks

- Low risk. UI-only routing change for the settings page. The
test-in-environment change adds an optional parameter with a local
fallback, so existing behavior is preserved when no environment is
specified.

## Model Used

Codex GPT 5.4 high via Paperclip.

Devin Foley 70679a3321 Add sandbox environment support (#4415)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies.
> - The environment/runtime layer decides where agent work executes and
how the control plane reaches those runtimes.
> - Today Paperclip can run locally and over SSH, but sandboxed
execution needs a first-class environment model instead of one-off
adapter behavior.
> - We also want sandbox providers to be pluggable so the core does not
hardcode every provider implementation.
> - This branch adds the Sandbox environment path, the provider
contract, and a deterministic fake provider plugin.
> - That required synchronized changes across shared contracts, plugin
SDK surfaces, server runtime orchestration, and the UI
environment/workspace flows.
> - The result is that sandbox execution becomes a core control-plane
capability while keeping provider implementations extensible and
testable.

## What Changed

- Added sandbox runtime support to the environment execution path,
including runtime URL discovery, sandbox execution targeting,
orchestration, and heartbeat integration.
- Added plugin-provider support for sandbox environments so providers
can be supplied via plugins instead of hardcoded server logic.
- Added the fake sandbox provider plugin with deterministic behavior
suitable for local and automated testing.
- Updated shared types, validators, plugin protocol definitions, and SDK
helpers to carry sandbox provider and workspace-runtime contracts across
package boundaries.
- Updated server routes and services so companies can create sandbox
environments, select them for work, and execute work through the sandbox
runtime path.
- Updated the UI environment and workspace surfaces to expose sandbox
environment configuration and selection.
- Added test coverage for sandbox runtime behavior, provider seams,
environment route guards, orchestration, and the fake provider plugin.

## Verification

- Ran locally before the final fixture-only scrub:
  - `pnpm -r typecheck`
  - `pnpm test:run`
  - `pnpm build`
- Ran locally after the final scrub amend:
  - `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/runtime-api.test.ts`
- Reviewer spot checks:
  - create a sandbox environment backed by the fake provider plugin
  - run work through that environment
- confirm sandbox provider execution does not inherit host secrets
implicitly

## Risks

- This touches shared contracts, plugin SDK plumbing, server runtime
orchestration, and UI environment/workspace flows, so regressions would
likely show up as cross-layer mismatches rather than isolated type
errors.
- Runtime URL discovery and sandbox callback selection are sensitive to
host/bind configuration; if that logic is wrong, sandbox-backed
callbacks may fail even when execution succeeds.
- The fake provider plugin is intentionally deterministic and
test-oriented; future providers may expose capability gaps that this
branch does not yet cover.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex coding agent on a GPT-5-class backend in the
Paperclip/Codex harness. Exact backend model ID is not exposed
in-session. Tool-assisted workflow with shell execution, file editing,
git history inspection, and local test execution.

Devin Foley e4995bbb1c Add SSH environment support (#4358)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - The environments subsystem already models execution environments,
but before this branch there was no end-to-end SSH-backed runtime path
for agents to actually run work against a remote box
> - That meant agents could be configured around environment concepts
without a reliable way to execute adapter sessions remotely, sync
workspace state, and preserve run context across supported adapters
> - We also need environment selection to participate in normal
Paperclip control-plane behavior: agent defaults, project/issue
selection, route validation, and environment probing
> - Because this capability is still experimental, the UI surface should
be easy to hide and easy to remove later without undoing the underlying
implementation
> - This pull request adds SSH environment execution support across the
runtime, adapters, routes, schema, and tests, then puts the visible
environment-management UI behind an experimental flag
> - The benefit is that we can validate real SSH-backed agent execution
now while keeping the user-facing controls safely gated until the
feature is ready to come out of experimentation

## What Changed

- Added SSH-backed execution target support in the shared adapter
runtime, including remote workspace preparation, skill/runtime asset
sync, remote session handling, and workspace restore behavior after
runs.
- Added SSH execution coverage for supported local adapters, plus remote
execution tests across Claude, Codex, Cursor, Gemini, OpenCode, and Pi.
- Added environment selection and environment-management backend support
needed for SSH execution, including route/service work, validation,
probing, and agent default environment persistence.
- Added CLI support for SSH environment lab verification and updated
related docs/tests.
- Added the `enableEnvironments` experimental flag and gated the
environment UI behind it on company settings, agent configuration, and
project configuration surfaces.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/adapters/claude-local/src/server/execute.remote.test.ts
packages/adapters/cursor-local/src/server/execute.remote.test.ts
packages/adapters/gemini-local/src/server/execute.remote.test.ts
packages/adapters/opencode-local/src/server/execute.remote.test.ts
packages/adapters/pi-local/src/server/execute.remote.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/environment-routes.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-routes.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/lib/new-agent-hire-payload.test.ts
ui/src/lib/new-agent-runtime-config.test.ts`
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm build`
- Manual verification on a branch-local dev server:
  - enabled the experimental flag
  - created an SSH environment
  - created a Linux Claude agent using that environment
- confirmed a run executed on the Linux box and synced workspace changes
back

## Risks

- Medium: this touches runtime execution flow across multiple adapters,
so regressions would likely show up in remote session setup, workspace
sync, or environment selection precedence.
- The UI flag reduces exposure, but the underlying runtime and route
changes are still substantial and rely on migration correctness.
- The change set is broad across adapters, control-plane services,
migrations, and UI gating, so review should pay close attention to
environment-selection precedence and remote workspace lifecycle
behavior.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex via Paperclip's local Codex adapter, GPT-5-class coding
model with tool use and code execution in the local repo workspace. The
local adapter does not surface a more specific public model version
string in this branch workflow.
