DottaandPaperclip d84061b923 fix(runner): recover journaled completion proposals (#16962)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Native runs preserve provider sessions across controller restarts.
> - A completion event can reach durable storage before the next session
checkpoint.
> - Recovery advanced the event cursor but lost the saved completion
proposal.
> - The completed turn then appeared to need another provider turn to
report its result.
> - This change restores the exact active turn's proposal before
advancing the cursor.
> - Recovery can finalize completed work without repeating its external
actions.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

After a controller restart, a native run could fail with
`native_finalization_missing` even though `run.result.proposed` was
already durable. The recovered driver skipped that event when its cursor
advanced, so the result was absent from its state. Automatic disposition
retries could then encounter outstanding tool receipts and exhaust
recovery.

**Expected behavior**

Restore the saved result for the exact active turn. Wait for provider
termination, then use normal finalization. Do not start another provider
turn to repeat completed work.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a native Codex task and save its active-turn checkpoint.
2. Persist its completion proposal, then lose the controller before
another checkpoint.
3. Recover the same run after the provider completes. Before this
change, finalization reports a missing result.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on `92b238137b`. The repair is based on `7c247243e5`.

**Deployment mode**

Native Runner with Codex. The incident used a remote sandbox; the
regression covers controller event recovery.

Related: #12845 and #15297. The older #12241 addresses provider process
continuity; this change repairs the controller's saved event projection.

## What Changed

- Restore valid completion proposals for the checkpoint's exact active
turn during event replay.
- Reject conflicting, invalid, or incorrectly bound proposals. Ignore
proposals from another turn and prevent adoption after a newer turn
starts.
- Keep provider termination and normal finalization as separate
requirements.
- Add eight behavioral cases using the real Codex driver and a simulated
transport, and document the recovery contract and verification scope.

## Verification

- Red: the new restart regression failed with
`native_finalization_missing` before the production change.
- Green: 254 tests passed across the native runtime, backend adapter,
and Codex recovery suites. The new cases check no repeated provider
work, no early finalization, duplicate proposals, conflicts, invalid
proposals, and stale turn/session bindings.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` and `git diff --check` passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed locally. All CI gates
passed on `2ac025a15c`; Greptile rated that commit 5/5 with no
outstanding findings. The full local `pnpm test:run` was started after
completing the embedded PostgreSQL installation, then stopped while
still running once the complete CI test matrix passed; it is not
reported as a completed local run.
- Real local acceptance passed on `2ac025a15c` with the production Rust
Runner transport, Codex CLI `0.160.0`, and `gpt-6.1-sol` on macOS arm64.
Persisted the completion proposal while retaining the older active-turn
checkpoint; let the provider finish without persisting its later
controller events; stopped the exact owned runner/provider; recovered
the same provider session and turn. Observed one accepted result, one
durable `turn.start` command, and one line in the receipt file. Hosted
sandbox restart and recovery of the original stopped task have not been
performed.
- Initial setup failures are retained: dependency drift caused
diff-viewer type errors, and skipped PostgreSQL postinstall links
prevented database startup. Dependency alignment and the package
postinstall repaired those local prerequisites. Probe setup iterations
failed on a direct-provider response schema, invalid probe input fields,
and an original provider that still held its writer lock. Acceptance
uses the production transport, validated input, and exact-owner
shutdown. No production code changes were made for those probe setup
failures.

## Risks

- A stale proposal could finalize the wrong work. Recovery requires the
checkpoint's active turn and matching run, session, and source. It
rejects conflicting results and waits for provider termination.
- The change uses the existing paginated recovery scan. It adds no
database query per event or new retry allowance.
- No schema migration or change to task authorization is included.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6, running as Codex with reasoning, tool use, and code
execution. The exact served model snapshot and context-window size are
not exposed in this session. The live acceptance probe uses
`gpt-6.1-sol`.

DottaandPaperclip d855e550ad Finish Copilot native runtime on current master (#15701)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Paperclip Runner controls provider processes, permissions and task
completion.
> - Copilot needs its pinned distribution, native message identities and
accepted semantic completion receipts.
> - The release must preserve saved-token access and task lifecycle
guarantees.
> - This pull request will keep the current completion and recovery
fixes while adding the Copilot runtime.
> - The benefit is a reviewable part of the Copilot production release.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14434. Supersedes the runtime work in #15560. This is the first PR
in the stack; #15703, #15705 and #15706 follow. Related alternative
adapter work: #15881. This change uses the shared Runner path.

## What Changed

- Pin Copilot CLI 1.0.88 and bind the integrated implementation as
profile45.
- Keep native instruction, permission, receipt, process ownership and
cancellation boundaries.
- Preserve current master completion continuation and remote
verification behavior. Other provider release identities stay unchanged.

## Verification

Final reviewed source
[`4f3f1af807d2ed21adabb04c2f27f4df9c4bc8d5`](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/commit/4f3f1af807d2ed21adabb04c2f27f4df9c4bc8d5)
includes master `cde944ed75648adfb569e86133adc8b118b55dd6`. The combined
four-part PR tree matches it except for the CI-owned lockfile. Every
prior public PR head remains an ancestor. Released master migrations
remain unchanged; Copilot adds migration361. No unrelated provider is
enabled.

Copilot CLI1.0.88 and profile47 retain digest
`sha256:55044aa235e88b3fe36ec8a556ee1e3382590870aab907e4462ef7d64af49cea`.
The pending qualification marker is removed. The [qualification
record](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/4f3f1af807d2ed21adabb04c2f27f4df9c4bc8d5/doc/plans/2026-10-20-copilot-qualification-v47.json)
reports **20/20 Product cells,154 assertions;7/7 protocol cases,46
assertions** against frozen installed application
`c2616370800f5f6df45246b0890ba35a7cd2faab`. Both environments use the
exact authenticated model `gpt-5.6-luna`. Every passing Product case
confirms cleanup. Automatic behavior retries are disabled. Original
failed attempts remain recorded.

The ordinary installed remote journey passed saved-token selection,
authenticated model discovery, normal UI save/reopen, metadata-only
Test, task completion, accepted receipt and an exact19-byte browser
download. An open model catalog caused no new discovery requests
during117seconds. Actual installed runtime smokes passed on macOS ARM64,
macOS x64 under Rosetta and native Linux x64 on Daytona. Raw token
browser entry was not exercised; the encrypted connection was created
through the normal API.

The original Daytona file attempt timed out during delayed semantic
dispatch. Its precise stalled layer remains unresolved. Independent
ordinary delivery and the other19 cells passed before one instrumented
recheck passed8/8 with unchanged source,prompt,assertions and deadlines.
No causal latency repair is claimed.

After current-master reconciliation,129 connection tests,59 runner
tests,72 shared eval tests and88 recovery/workspace tests pass.
Migration generation/safety, unchanged profile identity and UI token
gates pass. Prior required CI was green. Fresh exact-head required CI
and E2E are green for all four updated heads. Each has a fresh
Greptile5/5 review and zero unresolved review threads. The [final
normal-package cloud
build](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39414239704)
is running. Recursive typecheck,full CI test shards,build and all8
browser shards pass. These checks cover the final source; no additional
local full-suite pass is claimed.

The [frozen image
build](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39334401638)
and [original normal package
build](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39334407471)
passed. The exact image is published and independently retrieved
anonymously. No separate full-image scan is claimed. All18 original
normal archives were scanned with zero selected credentials. Docker
builds run in the cloud. Provider USD remains unknown and
GitHub-attributed.

**Qualification is complete on the recorded frozen build. Normal
protected merge, automatic master canary publication and final
shipped-package local/Daytona canaries remain. No production deployment
is claimed.**

## Risks

Shared Runner behavior can affect active tasks. Exact profile admission
rejects stale runtime identities. The final campaign and installed
canaries remain release gates.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6. The exact serving model ID and context
window are not exposed in this task. Used for code changes, review and
tool-assisted verification.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip fa9f3f8a08 feat(runner): support preconfigured user homes for Codex and ACPX (#16486)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Runner launches the selected provider and keeps durable session
state.
> - Runner currently prepares private provider homes for each session.
> - Operators can already have working login, skills, and MCP
configuration on the execution machine.
> - This PR adds an explicit mode that uses that existing setup.
> - Runner keeps its task bridge and session ownership while leaving the
user's configuration in place.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation:** Rebuilding a provider home is unnecessary
when the execution account is already configured.

**Proposed solution:** Add `homeMode: "preconfigured"` to Runner adapter
config and runnerd transport options. Keep `"isolated"` as the default.
Initially support native Codex and ACPX Claude.

**Alternatives considered:** Continue copying user configuration into a
private home, or add an approval workflow. Both add work outside this
feature's scope.

**Roadmap alignment:** This extends the existing cross-provider Runner.
It does not add another runtime.

Related work: #14056 covers managed Codex credentials. #14474 covers
command environment delivery. This mode uses user-owned credentials and
retains the existing launch boundaries.

## What Changed

- Add a closed v7 launch contract for the selected home mode. Existing
contracts retain their behavior.
- Keep homeMode under operator control. Reject task overrides and
agent-authenticated changes, including removal through replacements,
adapter changes, or rollback. Ignore stored task values and exclude it
from automatic hire inheritance.
- Skip managed AI login, assigned-skill materialization, and external
MCP setup in preconfigured mode. Preserve the Runner task/completion
bridge.
- Keep protocol state and provider lifetime fences scoped to the Runner
session. Different sessions can share a home.
- Fail preconfigured ACPX planning/read-only launches before provider
admission until a read-only user-home launch is qualified. Use isolated
mode or native Codex for planning.
- Reject ACPX approval requests. Keep native Codex on `never`. Local
permission rules and hooks remain effective. Initially require the
default Runner ACPX `approve-all` setting; other Runner policies are
unqualified in this mode and fail before launch.
- Keep the internal ACPX bridge in a stable session namespace,
preserving an existing user MCP server named `paperclip`.
- Reject preconfigured ACPX Codex before launch until a session
permission profile can enforce Runner-state denial. Remove the
unprotected full-access mode switch; use native Codex or isolated mode
for that model family.
- Bump Pi to profile 23 because its attestation covers shared Runner
source changed here. Preserve profile 22 for historical recovery, and
update Docker/package verification inputs.
- Fence recovery on mode and home bindings. Fail missing
provider-history recovery without starting a replacement session.
Exclude the external Codex home from backups and credential cleanup.
- Discover remote HOME on the execution machine. Do not project
controller HOME or XDG paths onto it.
- Separate task instructions from Codex ACP isolation and update the
generated provider digest.
- Keep remote configured-environment manifests consistent when dropping
controller paths. Preserve exact Claude model IDs through per-launch
environment settings, without editing the user home or patching the
provider.

## Verification

- Targeted local checks cover native contracts and launch allowlists,
user-config preservation, provider admission, permissions, session
recovery, remote environment projection, heartbeat preparation, and
operator-only configuration. Runner, shared, and server TypeScript
checks and the Rust binary build pass; generated ACPX profiles are
current.
- Following the latest master integration, all 757 server
configuration/executor tests and 115 Runner admission/recovery tests
passed. Additional review-fix checks passed: 103 planning contract/host
tests, 78 provider-backend tests, 95 route/preparation/inheritance
tests, 43 task-validator tests, and 43 workspace-policy tests. Counts
describe separate runs and can overlap.
- The real pinned Claude ACP/SDK regression reproduces exact-model
aliasing without the fix (`claude-sonnet-5-5` becomes `sonnet`) and
passes with the fix. All 89 adapter tests pass. User settings remain
byte-for-byte unchanged.
- Localhost-only Claude SDK probes with synthetic credentials verify the
private bridge runs, local `ask` reaches the existing reject callback,
local `deny` blocks without a callback, and a user MCP server named
`paperclip` remains available. No user model allowlist is required.
- Review regressions cover fail-closed provider admission, saved-mode
recovery before routing, controller-home path removal without
configured-environment manifest drift, pre-launch rejection of
unqualified read-only ACPX launches, and denial of task/agent changes to
the operator-owned home mode.
- Before rebase, `d4d4ee2aebe4cb88c4f4d9ef8e22fed4b36b87be` received
standard Greptile 5/5 with no unresolved threads. Prior Apex findings
are fixed and covered by regressions. No manual Greptile retrigger is
requested for this rebase, per reviewer direction.
- The prior PR head and master hit the same GitHub runner encoding crash
in workspace-b on three PR attempts, including diagnostic logging
([prior PR
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38818474563/job/116714538405),
[prior master
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38819528748/job/116712423193)).
Rebased onto `origin/master` at `c3ffa3f0dd` to pull in its bridge-test
index correction. The rebased head
`edd153db410bea063b645e0000aa68649f287b00` passes all CI checks ([CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38824676914)),
including workspace-b. Greptile's automatic standard review is 5/5 on
this exact head, with no unresolved threads; no manual review was
requested.
- Local workspace-b investigation passed 911 shared tests and 3,868
tests across the remaining 15 workspace projects. The catalog run
separately hit an existing ignored
`.agents/skills/design-guide/SKILL.md` description-budget violation in
this checkout; that file is untracked, outside the PR, and left
untouched. Repeating shared tests with CI reporting enabled also passed.
- Rebase verification: the final Git tree exactly matches the previously
reviewed branch combined with current master. All 192 Runner
admission/contract tests, 61 server preparation/provider tests, and 68
bridge tests pass, as do Runner/server TypeScript and generated-profile
checks. The real Claude adapter fixture hit an `ENOTEMPTY` cleanup race
on its initial run; all 89 adapter tests passed on retry.
- Apex on rebased head `edd153db` returned 2/5: ACPX Codex selected full
access without enforcing Runner-state denial, and agent configuration
replacement could remove the operator mode. Both are fixed in
`26e14dbbf`. Preconfigured ACPX Codex is temporarily unqualified;
re-enabling it requires session permission enforcement on thread/turn
operations and a real filesystem-denial probe. The config guard covers
effective replacements, adapter changes, and rollback while allowing
ordinary agent merges and operator removal. All 190 focused Runner
tests, 103 server tests, both typechecks, and generated-profile checks
pass. Standard review and CI passed before the next Apex request.
- CI on `26e14dbbf` passed 1,967 Runner-shard tests but hit the
previously observed `ENOTEMPTY` fixture cleanup race after successful
Claude model admission. `eb83284fb` adds bounded filesystem retries to
that fixture's teardown; all 87 adapter tests pass. Assertions and
production cleanup behavior are unchanged. Head
`eb83284fb42ee19a15d9a93b106c1bbb07e1695e` passes all 59 CI checks ([CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38829500857))
and standard Greptile at 5/5 with no unresolved threads. Apex also
completed at **5/5** on that exact head ([Apex
result](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/16486#issuecomment-6201559527)).
All review threads are resolved, the branch has no merge conflicts, and
the PR remains unmerged.
- No live paid-provider or remote-machine smoke was performed. The
lockfile remains unchanged under the repository's refresh-bot policy;
local dependency installation resolved the changed patch hash.

## Risks

This explicit opt-in grants Codex tools access to the execution home
(read-only in planning), including credentials. Native Codex separately
denies Runner-owned protocol state. ACPX Claude retains its existing
provider trust boundary, and the isolated default is unchanged.
Providers may refresh credentials and update their own metadata.

User configuration can block tools or the completion reporter. Existing
blocked results and failure diagnostics remain the recovery path. Edit
the local settings and retry; no new approval workflow is added.

External provider history remains on the execution machine and is not
backed up by Runner. Remote HOME discovery requires `getent` and fails
explicitly when unavailable. Other harnesses need separate
qualification.

The Codex ACP bundle digest changes. Existing sessions tied to the old
bundle may need a fresh session. No database migration is required.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6, with reasoning and code execution. The exact
runtime model ID was not exposed.

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Agent or provider**

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

**Why this adapter is useful**

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

**How the agent is invoked**

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

**Additional context**

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

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

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip fd8c6b920a fix(native): resume connection tasks after approval decisions (#15471)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native tasks can pause while a human decides whether to allow a
connection action.
> - The next turn needs both the saved decision and complete accounting
for the previous turn.
> - Cancellation could discard final usage, and complete direct Claude
API receipts could remain unpriced.
> - A stale blocked or review report could also request approval again
after the original card was declined.
> - This pull request retains shutdown accounting and rejects approval
waits bound to an already resolved action.
> - The benefit is reliable continuation with the existing budget and
approval controls.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15420. Related: #15312 addresses requester ownership during
dispatch. This change addresses receipt capture and final-response
validation.

## What Changed

- Retain usage events after native cancellation. Continue to reject late
provider messages and work.
- Drain same-turn accounting and terminal events for at most fifteen
seconds after a durable governed wait. Keep incomplete accounting
blocked.
- Estimate complete, unpriced, direct Anthropic API receipts for the
exact `claude-sonnet-5` model. Record the rate version and assumptions.
Use the one-hour cache-write rate when the receipt lacks cache TTL.
- Bind stale approval reports to exact interaction, action-request, or
invocation IDs in the same company, task, agent, and run. Cover blocked,
review, and response-wake reports. Keep independent reviews valid.
- Fence checkpoint and result writes after a controller detaches for
restart, including operations waiting for a database lock. Reject stale
successful returns before certifying accounting.
- Allow bounded subscription teardown only after retaining an actual
provider terminal.
- Journal the exact governed-wait trigger and disposition before
provider interruption. Recover that wait independently of a later saved
answer, replay retained accounting, and reject mismatched or unproven
terminal evidence.
- Give settling governed turns a bounded window before shutdown detaches
their controller.
- Keep fuzzy external app matches alongside installed capability matches
instead of forcing an unrelated provider question for a generic query.
- Return up to twenty exact active catalog tool names after an invalid
request, after eligibility checks; still reject the request without
granting access or creating an approval.
- Require retained provider terminal proof before settling a governed
wait, including when complete usage arrives before stream
closure/error/timeout. Retain harmless numbered cancellation events so
restart replay stays contiguous.
- Isolate accounting-test OpenCode config from the host plugin
directory.
- Add regression coverage and document the accounting, restart and
connection-search behavior.

## Verification

Current PR source: `0cf08efd75f8fb23f7989beda6dbda92587088bf`. The live
matrix below measured frozen `09a776bcb1f77422156f8be11e13f8c29f43e7f7`;
later review fixes are verified separately and do not relabel those
runs.

- Repository typecheck and build pass.
- Current runner runtime and cancellation suites: 191 tests pass. Six
new regressions cover stream end/error/timeout without provider-stop
proof and contiguous cancellation acknowledgement/request replay; all
six failed before the fix. The existing bounded cleanup case now
explicitly supplies terminal proof. All 31 adapter accounting tests pass
with isolated fixture config.
- New checkpoint-rebinding and approval-criterion suites: 65 tests pass;
runner HTTP integration: 29 tests pass. Unchanged executor/control-plane
suites: 640 tests pass; database-backed connection suites: 68 tests
pass.
- Current retained evidence verification covers 222 file hashes across
all fifteen original result artifacts. The three-case [published
report](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-37651896525-1/index.html)
and all eight screenshot hashes verify. The [three-case recovery
report](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-37662587356-1/index.html)
and all six screenshots also verify; the nine-result campaign did not
publish.
- Evaluation support: 1,805 Vitest tests pass, one skipped; 128 Node
tests pass. Eval typecheck and catalog discovery pass.
- Full local repository unit run was interrupted before the follow-up
edits after three tool-access failures and one runner HTTP failure.
Those failures pass in isolation; the 09a full run was interrupted after
one rapid Slack callback-ordering failure and seven skill-service
failures. All eight pass both isolated and with full-runner environment
settings, and all 74 skill-service tests pass together; the subsequent
full run reported two 15-second OpenCode accounting timeouts and was
stopped with exit 130 to apply review fixes. The timeouts reproduce
while copying this host’s 61 MB OpenCode config. All 31 tests pass after
isolating config inside each fixture without increasing timeouts or
changing assertions. A complete local full-suite pass is not claimed.
Repository-wide CI also passes on the final review-fix head in [run
37669185952](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37669185952).
Earlier database-skipped diagnostics and the older ENFILE run are
retained and are not full-suite passing evidence.
- Three-case live campaign
[37651896525](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37651896525)
passes all three original grades on frozen source 09a: 55/55 checks,
eight succeeded run records, complete accounting receipts, matching
checkpoint identities and no pending approvals. Campaign
[37653533353](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37653533353)
adds nine original passes (173/173 checks, eighteen succeeded records)
on the identical source. Its other three jobs failed before runner
assignment or any step while GitHub could not load the paid environment;
those original infrastructure failures are retained. Campaign
[37662587356](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37662587356)
completes only those unstarted cells: all three original grades pass
(57/57 checks, six succeeded run records). All fifteen exact cases now
pass on source 09a: eight FAIL → PASS, seven PASS → PASS, zero new
overall failures and zero pending pairs. Total current evidence: 285/285
checks and thirty-two succeeded run records, complete accounting
receipts, matching checkpoint identities, no pending approvals or retry
records. Earlier campaigns retain forty-seven additional run records and
two known same-run recovery attempts; actual provider-call counts and
invoices remain unknown. The nine-result campaign skipped publication
and its public URL returns 403; original artifacts remain retained.
Previous ba9 campaign
[37645656840](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37645656840)
completed 2 PASS / 1 FAIL: Claude restart/approval and Codex decline
pass, while OpenCode resumes but times out searching for exact tool
names and never creates the access card. That failure and incomplete
cancelled-run accounting remain preserved; the new catalog error
guidance targets this observed dead end. Campaign
[37642957312](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37642957312)
remains 0 PASS / 3 FAIL and exposed the now-corrected cross-run marker
leak and unknown-criterion approval gap. The original baseline remains 7
PASS / 8 FAIL, first repair 2 PASS / 3 FAIL, and second repair 0 PASS /
3 FAIL. All fifteen selected cases are qualified by their original
grades in this bounded trial. These live grades belong to 09a. Its
twelve governed-wait checkpoints retain matching same-turn terminal
fingerprints, but passing artifacts omit detailed event journals; the
later six adversarial regressions qualify the new terminal-proof and
replay guards separately. Final-head repository CI passes. [Fresh
Greptile
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/15471#issuecomment-6044369780)
is 5/5, confirms both findings are fixed, and reports no new actionable
issues. All review threads are resolved and the PR has no merge
conflicts.

## Risks

- Governed cancellation drains accounting for up to fifteen seconds.
Restart detachment gives a settling batch up to twenty seconds to
finish. An incomplete receipt or unproven provider terminal still
prevents successful qualification.
- Claude prices are estimates, not invoices. The estimate assumes
standard global API pricing and uses a conservative cache-write rate.
Unsupported models, billers, and billing modes remain unpriced.
- Approval identity matching must remain scoped to the current run and
the requested approval. It does not authorize execution of a declined
call.
- Original baseline and final candidate have different merged master
context. Exact-case outcomes are before/after observations, not isolated
causal attribution to this repair.
- No schema migration, fixture, oracle or grader change. Search-result
guidance now treats fuzzy external matches as suggestions. Existing app
authorization and provider-consent checks remain required.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with code editing, terminal tools, and
test execution. The exact deployment identifier and context window are
not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 63f3aa2dbf fix(runner): continue restart-interrupted Codex turns (#15297)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native runs retain their provider conversation across server
restarts.
> - A dead runner can restore a Codex conversation after its active turn
is lost.
> - The old recovery path synthesized a failed task result from that
interruption.
> - The task then required operator action even though its conversation
and workspace were available.
> - This pull request preserves the interruption cause and uses the
admitted restart attempt for one continuation in the same conversation.
> - The agent can reconcile unfinished actions and complete the current
request without resending the original task.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #12845 added native restart recovery. #15042 covers admission
during shutdown. #14796 covers legacy shutdown recovery. This change
covers a lost native Codex turn after successful conversation
restoration.

**What happened?**

After a server restart killed the local runner, Paperclip restored the
saved Codex thread. Runnerd found that the old turn was no longer
active. It synthesized a failed terminal and a needs-review result from
the last progress message. The transport also discarded the terminal
error when it reconstructed thread history. The task failed instead of
continuing.

**Expected behavior**

After proving that the old process stopped and admitting a bounded
recovery attempt, resume the current request in the same conversation.
Preserve the workspace. Inspect unfinished actions before proceeding.
Keep real provider failures, accepted results, intentional stops,
unknown unreconciled effects, and exhausted attempts subject to their
existing rules.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a local native Codex run and leave its turn active.
2. Kill the isolated runner and provider processes, as can happen during
a server restart.
3. Restore the same provider thread with no active turn.
4. Observe the synthetic task failure. The new real-process regression
reproduces this boundary with a scripted provider.

## What Changed

- Record an explicit recoverable process-loss cause without inventing a
task result.
- Preserve terminal errors and prior turns in reconstructed provider
history. Recover the authoritative saved result when adopting an
accepted continuation.
- Send one continuation in the same conversation for an admitted
dead-runner recovery. Require reconciliation of unfinished commands and
external actions.
- Persist the interrupted terminal before submission and retain the
existing recovery marker across another controller loss.
- Keep provider attempt limits, terminal failures, and intentional
cancellation behavior.
- Add red/green regressions, real process-kill coverage, restart
checkpoint coverage, and retry-budget coverage. Document the behavior
and run-log evidence.

## Verification

- Red: the new native runtime regression rejected with
`NativeProviderTerminalFailure` on the original code; the Rust restore
regression found a missing recovery cause.
- Red/green: if restoring the conversation fails and replacement is
allowed, the replacement receives the full task and fresh-session
handoff. Both prepared and legacy execution inputs are covered.
- Red: a second controller crash after the provider accepted the
continuation caused an extra `turn/start`. The regression now proves
there are exactly two submissions total: the original and its
continuation.
- Green: focused runtime, backend, driver recovery, and real-process
restart suites (207 tests). After the final history/result changes,
driver recovery and real-process restart suites passed again (36 tests).
- Green: complete Codex transport suite (186 tests), server restart
classification/database integration suites (34 tests), and Rust Codex
provider suite (92 passed, 2 ignored).
- Full `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed on `60141e649`. The
subsequent replacement-prompt guard passed the Runner TypeScript check
and the complete runtime plus process-restart suites (148 tests).
- Local full-suite attempt: `pnpm test:run` reported two failures in the
untouched chat integration suite. Both passed individually, and the
complete chat suite passed on rerun (1,063 tests). After all remote test
shards passed, the duplicate serial local run was stopped with SIGINT;
it is not claimed as a full local-suite pass.
- Latest-head CI (`b1297dcd4`): 55 successful checks and 4 intentionally
skipped checks, including all test shards, typecheck, build, native
Runner verification, end-to-end tests, and canary dry run. [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37405346303).
- Greptile: 5/5 on the latest head, with no unresolved review threads.
The PR is mergeable.
- The process tests use the real runner binary and a scripted Codex
provider. They do not call a live model service.

## Risks

- This changes local Codex recovery after process loss. A continuation
can execute more work in the retained conversation. Its prompt requires
state inspection before repeating an uncertain action; the system does
not replay tool calls.
- Recovery shares the existing three-attempt budget and one-shot
continuation marker. Real failures and older unmarked failed checkpoints
are not reopened.
- No database migration or API change is required.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6. The exact model ID and context-window
size are not exposed in this session.
- Capabilities: reasoning, source inspection, tool use, code editing,
code execution, and test analysis.

DottaandPaperclip 2ec82c5774 fix(runner): preserve task context when tool connections change (#14963)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents use tools through company-scoped connections and provider
sessions.
> - Resolving a tool connection currently forces a fresh session even
when the provider can load new tools into the existing conversation.
> - A fresh provider conversation can receive too little history to
continue the task.
> - This pull request adds explicit tool-refresh capabilities and uses
them in both runner paths.
> - Fresh attempts receive bounded task history with source IDs and
retrieval instructions.
> - The benefit is that agents can continue the same task after a
connection changes.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A resolved tool connection forced a fresh provider conversation. The new
conversation could lose the original goal and prior answers. Claude also
rejected resume when only the MCP server set changed.

**Expected behavior**

Resume the provider conversation when its harness can refresh tools.
When a fresh session is required, supply enough bounded history to
continue the task. Preserve company, agent, task, workspace, model,
instruction, and skill checks.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a conversation and agree on a task and its constraints.
2. Request and connect a tool needed for the task.
3. Continue the conversation after the connection resolves.
4. Check that the agent remembers the task and can use the new tool.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The bug was reproduced on master at `c46e41e81`. This branch is rebased
on current master.

**Deployment mode**

Self-hosted server. Both legacy adapters and the native runner are
affected.

Related public work: Refs #13282 for task-backed conversations. Refs
#13057 for the broader session-compaction proposal. Refs #14659 for
another report about local CLI session continuity. This change fixes
tool-connection continuation. Provider authentication repairs keep their
existing recovery behavior.

## What Changed

- Expose tool-refresh support in native harness descriptors and legacy
adapter metadata.
- Request tool refresh after connection resolution. Keep provider
authentication repair as a fresh-session wake.
- Reload current tools and credentials while retaining supported Claude,
Codex, Grok, and other provider conversations.
- Allow MCP-only changes during qualified native recovery. Keep all
other compatibility checks.
- Refresh managed-provider and ACPX tool bindings when attaching a new
run.
- Add a fresh-session handoff for both runner paths. Bound database
reads, excerpts, and the final packet to 24,000 bytes.
- Include the original request, recent messages, decisions, plans, prior
answers, and source IDs. Mark omitted content. Apply reset boundaries,
wake cutoffs, quarantine, and secret redaction.
- Add regression tests and document the capabilities and handoff
behavior.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed. Rust formatting passed.
- Final review fixes passed 314 server tests, 333 adapter utility tests,
139 native-session runtime tests, and 12 managed-provider Rust tests.
They verify historical quarantine, raised budgets across attachment, no
history reads on successful resume, and handoff delivery on fresh retry.
- Broader branch verification also passed 1,401 adapter utility tests,
1,047 runner TypeScript tests, 43 Grok adapter tests, and 311 Rust core
tests.
- Live Claude CLI and Grok ACP probes preserved the provider session ID,
recalled a prior task constraint, and called a newly added read-only MCP
tool.
- GitHub CI passed on `b21486d18084a7aa4cafbe8e012f7cad6585d9cc`: 55
successful checks and 4 skipped checks. This includes all test shards,
all eight browser shards, runner checks, and the Grok clean public npm
install canary. [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37057514976).
- A full local test attempt encountered a separate Git snapshot timeout.
All affected local suites passed after the final edits, and the full CI
test gates passed.
- Review the capability matrix in `packages/paperclip-runner/README.md`.
Repeat the four reproduction steps with a supported provider and with an
unsupported harness.

## Risks

- Provider tool refresh can fail. Existing recovery falls back to a
fresh conversation where policy permits it.
- A new transport can replace an old process while preserving the
provider conversation. Tests cover current credentials and unchanged
identity.
- Long history can omit older context. Explicit markers and source IDs
let the agent retrieve needed context within task scope.
- Unknown and unqualified harnesses use the fresh-session path. No
database migration is required.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6, with reasoning, tool use, code execution, and live
provider testing. The exact model ID and context-window size are not
exposed in this session. Claude and Grok also ran as test subjects.

DottaandPaperclip 94e8dec56b fix(runner): preserve tool outcomes through shutdown and restart (#14734)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The runner sends authorized tool calls to the server and saves their
results.
> - A provider turn can stop while a server write is still running.
> - The old shutdown path invented a failed result that could conflict
with the real result.
> - Truncated execution input and incomplete recovery records made the
failure harder to diagnose.
> - This pull request preserves exact inputs and actual outcomes through
shutdown and restart.
> - Tests force the race and crash boundaries so safe retries do not
repeat writes.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Stopping a turn during a server tool call could record a false failure,
then reject the actual result as a conflict. The diagnostic input
formatter could truncate instruction content before execution. A crash
during saved-result delivery could leave that delivery permanently
indeterminate. Cleanup could hide the first failure, and a retry could
overwrite earlier run logs.

**Expected behavior**

Keep dispatched tools pending until their actual result is known.
Preserve accepted input bytes. Accept identical result delivery without
failing the task. Reject conflicting results with enough evidence to
diagnose them. Recover saved-result delivery without repeating the
business operation.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Hold an instruction update at the filesystem commit barrier.
2. Stop its provider turn before the server returns the result.
3. Release the write, deliver its result, and replay the same result.
4. Repeat with a restart before and after the delivery receipt is saved.
5. Check that there is one write and one audit row, and that the exact
result survives.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The change was developed from `44736c9c7` and rebased onto `0e5830887`.

**Deployment mode**

Self-hosted server with the native runner. Tests use local runner
processes, scripted providers, and PostgreSQL.

Related work: #12353 added durable semantic tool receipts; #12384 added
durable Codex tool recovery; #12404 bound semantic tools to ACPX
sessions. #14633 covers separate native-provider cancellation and
qualification work. This PR addresses server semantic-tool outcomes and
their durable delivery. No duplicate fix was found. AgentMail discovery
is outside this PR.

## What Changed

- Close turn admission without inventing results for dispatched tools.
Keep pending calls and accept late actual results.
- Accept identical result replay with a diagnostic warning. Include call
identity and both result hashes in real conflict errors.
- Preserve exact execution arguments. Reject prohibited or oversized
input before dispatch. Keep diagnostic previews redacted and bounded.
- Commit instruction-attempt evidence before the filesystem write. Save
completed mutation receipts so concurrent and restarted duplicates
return the first result. Recheck authorization before replay. An attempt
without a completed result stays unknown and cannot execute again.
Definite pre-write failures save and replay their original error without
another write.
- Recover an interrupted saved-result delivery only for backends with
durable result receipts. Never replay an ordinary business operation
with an unknown outcome.
- Preserve the initiating error when cleanup also fails. Record
incomplete settlement evidence. Propagate typed unknown-outcome errors
through the native tool wrapper without creating a false completed tool
result.
- Append run-log attempts and restore the durable log before appending
after local file loss. Reject incomplete restores. Publish a restored
prefix only if the destination is absent so concurrent attempts cannot
overwrite new lines.
- Add deterministic race, crash, replay, authorization, exact-content,
and log-restoration tests. Document their assertions in
`packages/paperclip-runner/docs/durable-recovery.md`.

## Verification

- Current head: `7e088f4c7fba8ebabf98ae95485a5753b013d489`. All 55
applicable checks pass; four conditional/manual checks are skipped. This
includes build, typecheck, Rust, both runner TypeScript shards, server
and workspace tests, all eight browser shards, isolated runner
compilation, and the clean-install release dry run. [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36746101110).
- Greptile reviewed this exact head at 5/5 with zero new findings. All
three earlier review threads are resolved.
- Focused local verification includes 11 instruction integration tests,
23 surrounding authority/tool tests, 26 run-log tests, and 169
controller/driver tests. The post-rebase controller/transport/runtime
selection passed 415 tests. The full Rust release suite passed 617 tests
with two ignored. The real-process SIGKILL recovery test passed three
consecutive runs.
- The fault matrix in
`packages/paperclip-runner/docs/durable-recovery.md` uses explicit
barriers, real PostgreSQL rollback, durable journal reloads, and killed
runner processes. It covers late results, identical and conflicting
replay, exact long content, concurrent log restoration, lost commit
acknowledgements, and definite failure replay after the original CAS
base becomes valid again. No paid model calls are needed.
- Full local recursive typecheck and build passed during implementation.
Server typecheck and the runner TypeScript build passed after the review
fixes. The broad local repository test run was stopped after repeated
database startup timeouts. Four timing/launch failures in an earlier
broad runner run passed focused reruns without changed assertions or
timeouts. These are local verification limitations; the complete
current-head CI suite is green. An earlier CI workspace job received an
infrastructure shutdown signal; its current-head replacement passed.

## Risks

- A stopped turn can remain blocked when a dispatched operation has no
proven result. The system does not guess its outcome or rerun its
effect.
- Conflicting results still fail settlement. Existing failed or
conflicting journals are not repaired automatically.
- Accepted semantic input is limited to 480 KiB of encoded JSON to fit
the encrypted transport. Larger input fails before execution.
- Instruction filesystem writes and database receipts are not one atomic
storage operation. A separately committed attempt and audit record
survive rollback. An attempt without a completed success or definite
pre-write failure receipt remains blocked as an unknown outcome. It is
not replayed or reported as success.

DottaandFry 3ca196b0a6 feat(agents): persist agent files across tasks without revision history (#14420)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - An agent needs personal files across tasks and sessions.
> - AGENTS.md is one file in that directory. Supporting files need the
same persistence.
> - The Instructions Editor and agent runs must share one current
directory.
> - Concurrent runs should apply only the files they change. The last
sync of the same file wins.
> - This pull request uses existing file transport and removes temporary
copies after sync.
> - Old instruction-only sessions keep their restore contract. New saves
do not create revision history.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14325. This replaces its revision-oriented design with persistent
agent files. Keep #14325 unmerged.

Transport prerequisite #14416 merged first at
`d172197117a14b80a1eb2d2835a0e7cce2679656`. This PR now targets master
and remains below 100 changed files.

Related work: #4513 and #8798 cover instruction tooling. This change
handles run synchronization, cross-task personal files, browser editing,
and old-session restoration.

## What Changed

- Keep one current directory per company and agent. Point AGENT_HOME at
a temporary working copy for each active run. Keep task files and
provider HOME separate.
- Restore text, binary files, and nested folders through workspace
transport. Exclude remote agent files from task Git snapshots with a
self-ignoring file inside the reserved runtime directory; never write
through repository-controlled Git metadata.
- Collect after the provider and child processes have stopped. Keep
resumable conversation state.
- Apply changed and deleted files under the agent lock. The last sync
wins for the same file. Unrelated concurrent changes survive.
- Remove temporary copies after successful sync, rejected sync, and
staging failure. Register ownership before copying so restart recovery
can remove interrupted preparation. Retry transient synchronization up
to three times. Preserve the original remote lease reference until
deletion succeeds; restart cleanup never acquires a replacement sandbox.
Do not create captured directories or a conflict-review queue for new
runs.
- Keep browser editing, stale-draft protection, and streaming binary
downloads. Keep the instruction entry and text editor limited to 1 MiB.
- Keep historical agent-folder sync failures on their affected runs
instead of repeating them above current saved instructions. Preserve
legacy candidate review and current browser-save errors. Avoid duplicate
quota warnings while retaining separate sync failures when they describe
a different problem.
- Require target-scoped caller grants for peer instruction access, while
preserving self edits, responsible-user checks, and protected-change
consent.
- Treat full storage as a nonblocking run warning, never an agent pause
or run-admission failure. Restore already-over-quota saved folders so
ordinary agent cleanup can recover; warn on each run until cleanup. The
run detail view shows the warning.
- Allow 256 MiB per file, 2 GiB per directory, and 100,000 entries. Hash
large files as streams. Check editor-save quotas with metadata instead
of hashing unrelated files.
- Preserve old native inputs, instruction-only copies, paths, digests,
and pending legacy candidates. Adopt old revision heads once. New writes
do not append history rows.
- Add idempotent migration 0287 and verify upgrades from the preview
tables and receipts.
- Add nine interactive stories under **Agents / Persistent files**,
including automatic incoming edits, stale browser drafts, and
storage-limit diagnostics.

## Verification

- Merge candidate: `4f5390107ec6ffd80a76d1d2e85530e66f21d079`, after
merging current master and the landed transport prerequisite.
Integration required no manual conflict resolution; the feature remains
99 changed files. Full workspace typecheck, production build, token
gates, and 715 focused tests passed on this merge candidate. Fresh
Greptile review is 5/5 with no unresolved findings. All 55 checks
passed, with four conditional skips, including the build, typecheck,
browser E2E, and canary dry run. A single retry recovered four jobs
interrupted by runner shutdowns; no source changes were required.
- Historical-warning UI fix: all 6,834 UI tests across 640 files passed,
including regression coverage for three old failures, legacy preserved
edits, and warnings scoped to the affected run. Full workspace
typecheck, production build, Storybook build, and token gates passed.
Browser-verified Storybook playtests passed for Historical Failures
After Successful Save, Storage Limit, and Full Storage Run Warning.
- Review follow-ups at `4e20c9fb2`: all 18 focused tests passed,
including external Git directories, linked worktrees, symlinks,
hardlinks, and distinct I/O failures alongside storage warnings. Server
and UI typechecks, token gates, and the production build passed.
- Storage warning regressions at `0724f3012`: all 33 directory tests and
all five heartbeat-list tests passed, with no skips in their successful
runs. They cover repeated runs while full, an already-over-quota saved
folder, cleanup, warnings retained after unrelated save failures, and
bounded warnings in large result JSON. Server typecheck passed after the
final warning fixes.
- Full workspace typecheck, production build, and token gates passed
during this follow-up. Product E2E harness: 631 tests passed across 52
files; harness typecheck passed. Earlier native session/context and
directory/legacy collection suites passed 537 tests; Runner
unit/transport suites passed 329 tests.
- **Real E2E at `0724f3012` (before this follow-up):** legacy local
Codex and native Daytona Codex each passed six tasks, one server
restart, seven independent assertions, and cleanup verification. Both
prove browser-to-agent edits, agent-to-browser edits, nested/binary
restoration, per-file last-sync-wins, a successful run after an
oversized save rejection, and cleanup clearing the warning.
- Native local Codex also passed the six-task quota flow before the
final warning-retention fixes. That pass began at `918d1ed02` while the
bounded-result warning fix was being edited, so it is not claimed as
exact-final-head evidence. Its final-head rerun failed during embedded
PostgreSQL bootstrap before any provider run: the macOS host had 87,365
of 87,381 SysV semaphores occupied. No unrelated services or kernel
limits were changed.
- The final-source report intentionally records **2/3 cells passed**,
preserving the blocked native-local attempt:
`tests/runner-e2e/results/agent-files-quota-final-20260928-report/`.
Earlier failed attempts and provenance notes remain under
`tests/runner-e2e/results/agent-files-quota-final-20260928-input/` and
the original campaign directories.
- Daytona used immutable image
`ghcr.io/paperclipai/paperclip-daytona-runner@sha256:5643f0d801417cae3581833a1a3bc6715b325e028602738d2652c44cac5dc6bf`
and its exact Linux runner binary. Controller source is `0724f3012`;
image source is recorded separately.
- Legacy-session compatibility and all three ACP Stop/resume browser
regressions passed on the prior validated feature head
`169fab46d5af21caa2269b4c1b29b69c933a6951`. They assert the same
provider session is retained and interrupted writes are not replayed.
Migration upgrade tests also passed earlier.
- Nine interactive stories are under **Agents / Persistent files**,
including **Full Storage Run Warning**. Its playtest and visual browser
inspection passed; the warning states that runs continue and the editor
remains available.
- Prior-head checks on `4e20c9fb2`: 55 passed, two conditional jobs
skipped, no failures or pending checks. All eight browser E2E shards and
their aggregate passed. Fresh Greptile review is 5/5 with no findings;
all review threads are resolved, the security scan passed, and GitHub
reports no merge conflicts.
- The broad local follow-up test run was interrupted after host
semaphore exhaustion affected isolated PostgreSQL instances. It also
encountered the existing macOS long-path fixture failure and two timeout
failures. This is not a claim that the full local suite passed. Logs are
retained; focused storage/warning tests passed.

## Risks

- A later sync can overwrite an earlier edit to the same file, including
a saved browser edit. There is no text merge or retained version. This
is the intended last-sync-wins policy.
- A save that exceeds a storage limit is rejected and its temporary copy
is discarded. The run itself continues normally, and later runs restore
the last saved files with a warning until cleanup. Transient sync
failures get bounded retries. An I/O failure partway through a sync can
leave some files updated; a failed receipt does not claim whole-folder
success.
- Larger folders increase copy time, network traffic, and temporary disk
usage. Active runs still need working copies. Terminal runs do not
accumulate archives. Operators must provision disk for agents and
configured concurrency; these limits are not company-wide quotas.
- A restored old native session remains instruction-only until a fresh
session starts. Its original conflict fence and existing pending
candidates remain compatible.
- Provider processes close at the collection boundary. Conversation
resume remains available, but warm process reuse is lost.
- Backups must include the instance filesystem and database. External
bundles keep their existing behavior until explicitly moved to managed
storage.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family. The session does not expose a more specific
model ID or context-window size. Reasoning, code execution, and browser
tools assisted this change. Real provider E2E uses `gpt-5.6-sol`.

DottaandPaperclip 992f720262 fix: make runner task context ownership explicit (#13753)
<!-- Write all pull request text in Simplified Technical English
(ASD-STE100). -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Task descriptions, comments, continuation data, skills, and
execution rules enter several agent adapters.
> - The same source can be rendered by more than one automatic input
carrier.
> - Failed resumes can also rebuild input from stale or compact context.
> - This pull request gives each Paperclip-owned source one delivery
owner and preserves the required transport boundaries.
> - It adds deterministic adapter, interaction, runner, and browser
tests for these boundaries.
> - The benefit is more predictable context delivery with explicit
evidence for later live qualification.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #13144 removes a duplicate environment payload and bounds wake
lists. Related: #11360 addresses Hermes resume behavior. This pull
request preserves compatible active-session formats while repairing
context ownership and stale question creation.

**What happened?**

Task descriptions and comments could enter more than one automatic
context block. Native transports could wrap a complete model input in a
second task envelope. Some legacy and gateway adapters could omit the
owned assignment on ordinary tasks or rebuild a failed resume with stale
compact context. A continuation could also request a question after
newer human comments had arrived.

**Expected behavior**

Each task or comment source has one automatic model-facing owner.
Distinct comment IDs and repeated wording remain distinct. Fresh
fallback attempts rebuild the required full context. A question request
is rejected when newer queued human direction makes it stale. Harness
access policy remains owned by execution configuration.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Build a task with a description and current comments.
2. Capture the actual adapter or runner input.
3. Compare source ownership and task-envelope nesting.
4. Queue a human comment before a continuation requests a question.
5. Trigger a failed resume and inspect the fresh retry input.
6. Run the focused adapter, interaction, runner, and browser checks.

## What Changed

- Add shared prompt-section selection at the provider-attempt boundary.
- Deliver owned assignment context through native, legacy CLI, ACP,
gateway, cloud, Pi, Kimi, Grok, Gemini, OpenCode, Cursor, OpenClaw, and
Hermes paths.
- Rebuild full or compact context after resume recovery changes the
attempt. Add native and Claude ACP tests of actual recovery requests.
- Preserve custom templates, loaded instruction files, execution
policies, and older active-session formats.
- Record continuation source metadata and reject stale question creation
under the issue-row lock.
- Add explicit Product E2E context-integrity profiles, prerequisite
gates, credential-isolation checks, and report fixtures.
- Bypass service-worker forwarding for same-origin Vite development
modules. A real Chromium test fails with resource exhaustion before the
repair and passes after it. Production asset caching keeps its existing
policy.
- Add browser diagnostics and service-worker module-loading regressions.
- Add an explicit zero-retry eval option. The default retry behavior
remains unchanged. Each campaign records its effective policy.
- Remove the model-facing working-directory sentence from four prompt
builders. Existing workspace, sandbox, permission, and custom-template
configuration remains unchanged.
- Align the everyday workflow assertion with the current 47-entry
catalog.

Compared with current upstream master, the branch carries the
context-ownership implementation and its tests, the explicit
context-integrity catalog and evidence harness, and the focused browser
regression checks.

## Verification

**Merge assessment:** focused regression evidence supports merge. This
is not full completion of the original broad qualification matrix. The
maintainer has authorized merge after fresh verification of the master
integration.

- Current head: `bbd52f82114eabf09bc7b1a7e97d54a5b43bbc00`. This
integrates current master `2f585ef26a1814fa209715242d1ca791b63e4c4e`.
All 14 conflicts are resolved. Cancellation checks, workspace
finalization, native Grok support, and both sets of tests are retained.
- Current-head Greptile: **5/5**, with no blocking findings. The review
names this exact commit. All **59 reported checks are terminal: 55
successful, 4 skipped, zero pending or failing**. This includes the full
root general and serialized suites, separate runner checks, typecheck,
build, canary, browser E2E, Docker, and security checks. The successful
legacy security status is included in that total.
- After integration: workspace typecheck and full build passed. Separate
runner checks passed: **2,160 TypeScript tests (10 skipped), 582 Rust
tests, and 39 preparation checks**. Other passing checks include 621
Product E2E harness units, 376 focused shared/adapter tests, 160
real-database/API tests, 86 Hermes tests, 18 browser-support checks, and
Product E2E typechecking. The complete root suite passed in CI. The
duplicate local monolithic root run was stopped after that CI result; it
is not counted as a completed local pass.
- New native recovery coverage retains full assignment, completion
contract, and explicit skill selection after safe replacement, for old
and prepared input formats. Full native session test file: **136/136
passed**.
- New Claude ACP coverage captures actual fresh, resumed, and
missing-session fallback requests. It verifies one assignment copy,
comment order, identical text under distinct comment IDs, and full
fallback context. Full file: **33/33 passed**. Both affected TypeScript
checks passed.
- Existing deterministic tests cover source revisions, approval and
trust boundaries, completion validation, custom templates, compatible
sessions, standalone driver wrapping, and maintained adapter transport
requests.
- Provider-free browser support: **17/17 passed** after the master
merge. Service-worker unit tests: **33/33 passed**. The module-overload
regression failed before the repair and passed after it in real
Chromium.

### Fresh live comparisons

The new batch ran exactly four Product E2E attempts. **All four passed
on the first attempt; no retries.** Each has six terminal matchers plus
the existing browser lifecycle and invariant checks.

| Exact case ID | Control | Candidate |
|---|---|---|
| `core-compatibility.runner-codex.local.plan-revise-accept` | Passed |
Passed |
|
`local-session-integrity.runner-acpx-claude.local.structured-question-restart-resume`
| Passed | Passed |

The plan case checks a revised canonical plan and revision-bound
approval before completion. The question case restarts the server before
submitting the answer, then verifies the continuation completes.

Control source is `dfa4e1bda8d50a1a01746603251a9128dbe9d0d6`. Candidate
source is `79fcdb5dece501d28064ea9da306603881b46f0c`. They use identical
frozen definitions and provider versions: Codex `0.156.0` with
`gpt-5.6-sol`; ACPX `0.13.1` / Claude ACP `0.73.0` with
`claude-sonnet-5`. The September 24 head added master browser recovery
and test-only changes. The September 28 head also integrates newer
master changes, including cancellation, workspace finalization, and
native Grok. These are frozen-source live results, not exact-head live
runs.

The candidate received one description copy where the control initially
received three. The submitted initial plan envelopes were 7,969 versus
19,097 characters. Question envelopes were 7,592 versus 18,919. These
are structural measurements, not whole-provider token or dollar savings.

### Earlier evidence and failed attempts

- The preceding fresh batch has four effective passing pairs: OpenCode
comment continuation and assigned skill, native Codex comment
continuation, and native Claude comment continuation. It retains **11
attempts: eight passed and three failed**.
- Original failures remain recorded: missing local PostgreSQL library
links before task creation; host-sleep cleanup after task/page checks
passed; and a Claude **control** session-open rejection before a model
turn. Setup was repaired identically on both worktrees. The permitted
unchanged infrastructure retries passed. The underlying Claude provider
startup error was not retained and remains unknown.
- Older R2 retains **17 passes and one failure** across 18 attempts,
including eight both-pass native/legacy Codex/Claude pairs. Its OpenCode
blank-page failure led to the service-worker repair. R2 is historical
evidence: master changed the native fixed prompt and removed duplicate
wake environment data afterward.
- The September 24 CI run initially failed one unrelated preview
readiness test (`ECONNREFUSED` on its local fixture). Its test and
production code match master. Isolated local verification passed **28
tests, 3 skipped**. One unchanged CI retry passed the full shard: **831
passed, 1 skipped**, including all **31 preview-exposure tests**. The
aggregate CI gate passed afterward. The precise startup cause remains
unknown; a port race is a hypothesis, not a proved cause.

### Limits

The original wider profile/workflow matrix, repeated trials, and remote
Daytona qualification are incomplete. These results support a focused
merge recommendation, not statistical equivalence or universal harness
qualification. Some usage receipts are missing in both variants, so no
token or dollar savings are claimed. The $500 ceiling was preserved
using conservative allowances; failed attempts and unknown charges
remain in the ledger.

Reproduce the focused additions with `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/adapters/claude-local/src/server/acp.test.ts` and `pnpm
--filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner exec vitest run
src/native-session-runtime.test.ts`. Full checks use `pnpm -r
typecheck`, `pnpm test:run`, `pnpm build`, and the separate runner
checks. Paid evals require the frozen definitions, profiles, and
credentials; do not use `--all` as a substitute for the selected cases.

## Risks

- Context placement changes can affect model behavior. Deterministic
checks cover the selected paths, but live qualification remains
incomplete.
- The stale-question guard can reject a request when queued human
comments arrived during the run. This is intended.
- New stored inputs and model envelopes retain compatibility readers for
older active sessions.
- Custom templates may intentionally repeat content.
- Removing a model-facing working-directory sentence does not change
filesystem, command, sandbox, or permission configuration.
- The worker bypass applies only to same-origin development module
paths. Cache-policy tests preserve private-response handling and
production asset caching. Mounted HTTP fixture changes remain test-only.
- This PR does not claim measured token savings or statistical
equivalence across every harness.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, exact model gpt-6-astra, with repository tools and code
execution. Bounded supporting work used gpt-5.6-luna and gpt-6-luna. The
serving context-window size is not exposed in this task.

DottaandPaperclip 43acbcc398 fix(runner): preserve sessions and complete question and approval continuations (#13655)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The native runner connects task state to provider sessions.
> - Follow-up turns must retain provider memory and carry new user
direction.
> - Lost session IDs caused repeated context and extra input tokens.
> - Native question answers and approval races could leave valid work
blocked.
> - This pull request repairs those paths and adds regression coverage.
> - Agents can continue accepted work without repeating the conversation
or losing the user's answer.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13574. That merged PR shortened continuation prompts and moved
question instructions into tool documentation. This change preserves
sessions and fixes failures exposed by broader testing. Related runtime
work: #13408 and #13410.

**What happened?**

Native follow-up turns could lose the provider session ID. Completion
guidance could replace the original task with its latest comment. Claude
native questions could remain pending after the user answered. Approval
during a running tool call could suspend the run before the tool
response arrived. Onboarding and chat handoff instructions also caused
repeated planning or missing plan documents.

**Expected behavior**

Reuse a valid provider session. Send only new events when that session
already has the history. Preserve the task requirements and apply later
user direction. Store the question answer and deliver it to the waiting
run. Finish governed tool responses before suspending. Execute the
accepted plan without asking for the same approval again.

**Steps to reproduce**

Run the continuation, local-session-integrity, first-task, and
agent-chat suites with native Codex and Claude. Include
provider-question-bridge, accept-while-running, and plan-handoff.

**Paperclip version or commit**

This branch is based on master d54b75011. The active full catalog run
tests 4e75881db. Later review fixes have separate regression coverage.

**Deployment mode**

Isolated local instances and Daytona sandboxes in the existing Runner
full-stack E2E harness.

## What Changed

- Retain provider session identity across turns and late usage
snapshots. Send new continuation events on session reuse, with full
context available for a fresh session.
- Preserve task requirements and later direction in completion guidance.
Return the current contract revision after a stale completion
submission.
- Bridge native Claude questions to saved Paperclip cards. Submit
answers through the saved card and resume the same run.
- Delay governed suspension until tool results settle. Add a
deterministic test barrier for approval during an active run.
- Clarify free-text question examples, explicit onboarding plans, and
execution of accepted chat plans.
- Fix continuation readiness, verified output evidence, and declared
screenshot collection.
- Qualify the legacy Claude test CLI at 2.1.277. The old 2.1.19 CLI did
not discover mounted skills. Update the existing workflow pin and
isolated launcher together.
- Refresh the Daytona image lockfile integrity pin after reviewing
master patch updates.
- Carry continuation mode as runtime metadata instead of inferring it
from user-visible text. Install the test Claude CLI without lifecycle
scripts.

## Verification

- Targeted paid verification: 20/20 cases passed across
local-environment campaigns before the rebase.
[Report](https://pages.paperclip.ing/runner-e2e-seven-fixes-35397904249/).
- Harness checks: 379 unit tests passed; harness typecheck passed.
- Latest-head PR checks: 55 passed, two intentionally skipped. Greptile
is 5/5; the security scan passes.
- Review regressions: 350 executor tests and 204 session/driver tests
passed. A script-free Claude install was verified with the actual CLI.
- Full catalog, including the explicit-only everyday suite: [run
35417932353](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/35417932353).
Completed: **164/205 passed; 41 failed**. [Full dashboard and failure
investigation](https://pages.paperclip.ing/runner-e2e-full-catalog-35417932353/).
Includes 204 case artifacts and one pre-case GitHub authorization
timeout; missing evidence is not scored as a pass. The full run tested
`4e75881db`; Final-head metadata/CLI smoke cases both passed. In the
separate [six infrastructure
retries](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/35419769343),
the GitHub timeout case passed and all five Docker preflight failures
repeated. [Follow-up
dashboard](https://pages.paperclip.ing/runner-e2e-full-catalog-35417932353/follow-up/).
- Full local typecheck and build passed on the rebased branch. The full
local unit run completed with 657 passing files, two test timeouts and
one suite setup timeout. All three affected files passed when rerun in
isolation (84 tests). The first full local run was not clean.
- Focused regression coverage includes the live question bridge,
same-run response delivery, UI routing, stale revisions, approval
overlap, and session reuse.

## Full-catalog follow-ups

- Test infrastructure: 14 Claude everyday cells probe an absent host
CLI; six cells failed pre-task GitHub/Docker qualification (GitHub
passes on retry; all five Docker cases repeat; the workflow preflight
allowlist omits their case IDs); five ACPX Codex cells cannot create
sandbox namespaces.
- Runtime: four OpenCode completion-criteria mismatches masked by
shutdown errors, one service-approval suspension failure; three Daytona
recovery failures encounter existing skill files; one duplicate
completion wake.
- Confirmed test defects: question pagination and a noncanonical plan
document key.
- Product/behavior: mismatched visible/required question sets, an
attachment instead of the requested task document, one lone-option
onboarding question, early completion instead of review, and a Codex
Mini completion-schema failure.
- The report job itself fails on trusted master’s stale patch/lock
configuration. The linked report is rebuilt with the shared renderer
from original cell results and public fixture screenshots; it excludes
private snapshots, logs and traces.

These are investigated follow-ups, not silently regraded passes.
First-task passed 51/52. The PR checks are green independently of the
broader catalog’s behavioral/infrastructure failures.

## Risks

- Session reuse depends on a valid provider identity and context
coverage. Fresh-session fallback and reset tests cover this boundary.
- Native question delivery spans saved interaction state and a live
provider run. Tests cover duplicate events, closed runs, and same-run
answers.
- Provider behavior varies. The full paid catalog may expose failures
beyond these targeted fixes; those results will be reported without
relaxing valid approval or output checks.
- The legacy Claude version update is limited to test infrastructure. No
database migration is included.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with repository inspection, code execution,
and browser/E2E tools. The exact runtime model identifier and
context-window size are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 422287eecd fix: preserve runner recovery, warm sessions, and task outcomes (#13338)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The native runner connects task messages, provider execution, and
task outcomes.
> - First-time user tests exposed gaps in recovery, completion
permissions, message delivery, and Stop behavior.
> - These gaps left usable output hidden, completed work waiting for
bookkeeping, or safe work unable to continue.
> - This pull request fixes the shared lifecycle and receipt paths while
preserving process ownership and action checks.
> - Users can continue work with accurate task state and durable
messages.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A stopped local Codex execution could remain blocked even after its
processes had stopped and its complete transcript proved that no
external action needed replay. Claude under Conservative permissions
could fail to call task completion tools. Recovery could reuse an
assistant item ID and overwrite prior output. A delivered comment could
remain marked uncertain after navigation. Stop could look like Pause or
a new recovery incident. Workspace contention could look like
cancellation. A direct reply reopening Done could enter a clarification
loop.

**Expected behavior**

Recover automatically only with verified termination and complete action
receipts. Preserve answers and messages. Keep task completion available
under Conservative permissions without broad tool access. Show crashes
as Blocked, actual human decisions as In Review, and ordinary workspace
contention as waiting. Stop the current response and allow a new
direction.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create ordinary response tasks with local Codex and Claude Code, then
send follow-up messages through the task composer.
2. Interrupt a disposable local Codex runner during text-only work.
Verify automatic continuation and retained output.
3. Stop a response, send a new request, answer a clarification, and
reopen completed work with another message.
4. Navigate or reload while a comment submission is pending. Confirm the
exact persisted request receipt settles it without removing newer draft
text.
5. Run two tasks in a shared Daytona workspace. Confirm waiting does not
appear as failure.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Initial acceptance baseline: `c9021c6721f91e2c74bd9fee9d3fd41c999d17b7`.
Current integration base: `6cef9743c`. Both operator-interruption and
workspace-waiting guards are preserved; native restart and legacy
permission rules remain documented.

**Deployment mode**

An isolated source-built test-drive instance, with real local Codex and
Claude Code providers and disposable Daytona environments.

Related work: #13314, #13316, #13327, #13344, #13239, #13254, #13163.
This PR addresses additional failures from ordinary task journeys,
including controller restart handoff and repeated warm sandbox setup.
Historical task status reconciliation is excluded.

## What Changed

- Persist runner ownership immediately at spawn and resume an explicitly
adopted runner even when the controller crashed before the first driver
checkpoint. Detach the controller safely across graceful restarts,
including session startup. Prevent an old finalizer from suspending or
signaling an adopted runner. Checkpoint idle warm sessions before
shutdown. Preserve the same run and queued follow-up messages.
- Scope saved legacy queue successor checks to the queue owner while
preserving ordinary task locks, operator identity, assignment gates, and
exactly-once delivery.
- Preserve managed Codex credential files when an old session is
detached for restart; normal owned cleanup still copies refreshed auth
back and removes the scoped copy.
- Reuse the bound warm shared sandbox and fully verify an existing
staged provider pack before using it. This avoids repeated uploads when
the pack is already valid.
- Add a narrow local Codex replacement path with stopped-process proof,
a closed transcript inventory, exact completion receipts, and
fresh-session lineage. Preserve no-replay holds when evidence is
incomplete. Recovery may clear only the same run's recorded Blocked
status version; manual re-blocking and dependency changes invalidate
that receipt, while queued comments do not. Later blocks stop scheduled,
queued, and final dispatch; queued/final checks re-read dependencies
even when the task status stays In Progress.
- Permit only task delivery and human-input tools through the isolated
Claude runner's exact task bridge.
- Scope assistant item identity to the provider turn and ignore only
authority-free Codex skill-change notifications during startup.
- Reconcile composer submissions by client request ID across response
loss, navigation, and reload. Retain text typed during delivery.
- Keep acknowledged run-only Stop neutral and show workspace contention
as waiting. Project exhausted native failures as Blocked.
- Restore the guarded task-page retry action for failed legacy runs,
including the server-supported explicit new-attempt path for stopped
conversation adapters. Preserve native/process recovery holds and avoid
promising Retry while a decision or execution gate hides it.
- Refresh delivered artifacts and handle direct user replies that reopen
completed work without a clarification loop.
- Check the embedded PostgreSQL PID, data directory, and actual port
before connecting or migrating.
- Document accepted behavior and add focused regressions at lifecycle,
route, transcript, and UI boundaries.

## Verification

- Final head `fece606ac2` passes the complete GitHub CI matrix: **34
green checks, two expected Storybook skips, no failures or pending
checks**, including `ci / verify`, `ci / e2e`, full runner verification,
typecheck, build, every server/workspace shard, and all browser shards.
[CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34727183287).
Greptile is **5/5 with no open findings**. The final two commits only
refine test fixtures; both affected suites pass 24/24 locally and in CI,
with server typecheck green.
- Complete local Vitest coverage uses the canonical groups/shards: all
635 general server suites, all 145 serialized suites, and all workspace
packages. The aggregate began on `0a8001c18` while the final queue fix
arrived: 23,903 passed, five failed, 87 skipped. The five
port/socket/timing failures passed unchanged in follow-ups (60 tests in
the exposure/file suites and 412 tests covering the serialized failures
and unrun tails). The final queue/operator-identity suites separately
passed 52/52. This is aggregate coverage plus explicit reruns, not a
pristine single-command final-head run.
- After integration with current master,
queue/operator-identity/continuation suites passed 162/162 and affected
UI suites passed 140/140. ACP Stop/continuation and legacy
task/Inbox/message browser suites passed 9/9, including both task
recovery Retry and thread Try again, automatic saved-message delivery,
exactly one new run, Done, and retained output after reload. The default
process Stop/Pause/Resume browser case passed (the native-provider case
is opt-in and skipped by default). The complete Board attachment/receipt
browser suite passed 11/11 on a disposable instance, covering both
composers, exact receipts after lost responses, no replay, bound
attachments, and newer drafts after reload.
- Blocking-intent regressions cover pre-existing Blocked, a mismatched
run/cause, an explicit manual re-block, changed dependencies, a queued
comment after failure, and a block arriving between scheduling and
provider dispatch. The negative cases reproduced before the fix. All 478
affected executor/recovery/dispatch tests passed; both database suites
ran separately after availability-probe skips in the first combined
command. The final late-dependency check passed all 143 affected
recovery/dispatch tests (zero skips) after two new negative cases
reproduced the bug.
- Focused runtime regressions cover awaited runner ownership
publication, authenticated adoption before the first checkpoint,
old-finalizer detachment, idle and busy warm-session shutdown, rejected
checkpoint propagation, provider-pack verification, and managed-Codex
credential preservation. Four managed credential detachment cases
reproduced the bug before the fix; normal owned cleanup still succeeds
exactly once.
- Live local Claude: SIGKILL 2.6 seconds into startup recovered the same
run automatically in 53 seconds, then a normal follow-up completed in 24
seconds. SIGTERM 2.5 seconds into startup preserved the same run (54
seconds) and its queued follow-up (21 seconds). Answers remained visible
and the task reached Done.
- Live Claude Daytona: a warm follow-up retained its sandbox and fell
from 121 seconds to 44 seconds. A separate cold turn took 127 seconds;
after controller shutdown and checkpointing, its follow-up completed in
33 seconds with the same sandbox, workspace, native session, and runner.
Both answers remained visible and the task was Done.
- Other live journeys covered task completion and follow-up with local
and Daytona Codex, local Codex crash recovery, Stop then new direction,
clarification response, live artifact refresh, and shared-workspace
waiting.
- Validation limits: the opt-in native composer Stop/Pause→subtree
Resume fixture exposes terminal/result ordering and subtree-cancellation
attribution bugs that can leave a child task blocked; that new finding
is assigned to a separate follow-up and is not claimed fixed here.
Default CI skips this optional native-provider fixture. Managed-Codex
credential handoff and the queue-agent integration use automated
regression evidence. Cold custom provider-pack uploads still add startup
latency.

## Risks

- Automatic replacement remains deliberately narrow: local Codex,
verified stopped identities, unchanged retained state, and a complete
text/completion-only turn. Unknown actions, partial history, or changed
ownership remain blocked.
- Claude completion permission handling changes an upstream package
patch. The exact isolated task bridge must remain pinned; unrelated
tools keep their existing permissions.
- New task failure projection changes user-visible status. No historical
status backfill or database migration is included.
- This is a broad lifecycle fix across server and UI. Live proof covers
graceful local Claude restart during startup and idle Claude Daytona
session recovery across controller shutdown. Live abrupt SIGKILL during
local Claude startup also recovered the same run. Unknown ownership or
missing action evidence still blocks reuse. Cold custom provider-pack
uploads still add startup latency; this change avoids unnecessary repeat
uploads.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 (Codex), with reasoning, code execution, browser
automation, and tool use. The exact hosted model ID and context window
are not exposed in this task.

DottaandPaperclip 250deab910 fix(runner): keep healthy native sessions alive (#13261)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native sessions keep a provider process and its work alive across
control-plane operations.
> - A hidden 15-minute turn deadline stopped work even when the agent
timeout was zero.
> - A one-hour runner lifetime and fixed connection lease added two more
limits.
> - Recovery also rejected goal commands because it reconstructed their
startup summary with the wrong protocol version.
> - This pull request removes implicit duration limits and renews
authenticated leases in the harness.
> - Healthy sessions can continue without model action or a user
interface change.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13092 and #12845. Related: #13163 covers sandbox recovery after
app restarts; this change covers session duration and lease renewal.

**What happened?**

A native Codex session stopped after 15 minutes while a tool was still
running. The agent had `timeoutSec: 0`. Recovery then rejected a
`session.goal.get` startup command with `invalid provider startup
ownership fence`.

**Expected behavior**

An unlimited session keeps working while its provider and authenticated
controller remain healthy. Lease maintenance is transparent. Explicit
timeouts, cancellation and revoked authority still take effect.

**Steps to reproduce**

Start a native session with `timeoutSec: 0` and run a tool beyond 15
minutes. Before this fix, the runtime cancels the turn. A recovery
startup that uses a goal command also exposes the protocol-version
mismatch.

## What Changed

- Honor the agent turn timeout. Zero disables the timer. Long explicit
durations use timer chunks to avoid Node timer overflow.
- Default native runner lifetime to unlimited. Keep bounded startup,
reconnect and control-operation deadlines.
- Renew leases over the authenticated connection. Persist renewal before
the reply. Validate identity, epoch and expiry. Handle duplicate
requests and a lost reply on reconnect.
- Freeze renewal during warm ownership transitions and terminal
handling.
- Validate persisted goal startup commands with protocol v2.
- Add duration, renewal, ownership, recovery and real-process regression
tests. Update runner protocol and recovery docs.
- Add no UI components or controls. Renewal requires no model output or
user action.

## Verification

Current head: `348e369c35c5da8bb8be378f4b35dcf6f40882e7`. [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34649767113).

- All 32 checks pass on this head. The two Storybook checks are skipped
as expected. CI includes full build, typecheck, runner verification,
browser suites, server tests and the canary package dry run.
- Greptile reports 5/5 on this head. All review threads are resolved,
and the security scan passes.
- Passed `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` locally.
- Passed 219 native-runtime and controller tests, including fake-clock
tests for three weeks of renewal and 30-day explicit timeouts. Six
denial tests confirm that renewal cannot extend expired, revoked or
mismatched authority.
- Passed 337 executor, cancellation and restart-recovery tests, plus 278
Rust runner-core library tests.
- Passed a real runner with a silent fake Codex provider across its
original lease expiry. Runner PID, provider PID, thread and active turn
stayed unchanged. Warm-attach recovery tests also pass.
- Passed all 83 plugin-worker tests and 159 of 161 workspace-runtime
tests locally. The two remaining assertions passed with a canonical
macOS temporary directory, as did the changed runtime fixture. The full
affected server shard passes in CI.
- An unchanged GitHub callback-ordering test failed once in CI, passed
locally in isolation, and passed its one test-shard retry. The final CI
summary is successful.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` sweep was interrupted after dependency
setup failures and load-related timeouts. Identified failing suites
passed in isolated reruns after the dependency repair. The complete test
matrix passed remotely in CI.

## Risks

- Deploy the controller and runner together to enable renewal. Older
peers keep their existing bounded lease behavior.
- Unlimited runtime permits long resource use until completion, explicit
cancellation, configured timeout or loss of valid authority.
- Lease renewal changes authenticated protocol handling. Regression
tests cover stale, revoked and mismatched authority, lost replies and
warm handoff behavior.
- Simulated multi-week tests and a real lease-boundary test do not
constitute a weeks-long production soak.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with repository inspection, code execution
and TypeScript/Rust test tools. The exact backend revision and
context-window size are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 663c44cb2b fix: continue conversations after confirmed remote runner stop (#13254)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Users can stop a run and send another message on the same task.
> - Remote runners need evidence from their sandbox provider that
execution stopped.
> - Local process checks cannot prove that a remote process exited.
> - This pull request records provider stop receipts and uses them for
conversation admission.
> - New user messages can proceed after confirmed cleanup without
repeating interrupted actions.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13237 and #13239. Related: #13163 covers app-restart recovery;
this change covers an explicit stop followed by a new user message.

**What happened?**

A stopped remote Claude ACP task kept its execution hold after Daytona
cleanup succeeded. Native runners also rejected remote process
identities and retained stale session cleanup gates. A message sent
during cleanup could stay deferred after the sandbox stopped.

**Expected behavior**

After the provider confirms that the old execution stopped, a new user
message starts a fresh turn. Pending user messages must not need another
message to trigger admission. Prior action outcomes remain recorded.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a long-running task in Daytona with a legacy Claude ACP or
native ACP runner.
2. Cancel the run while its tool is active.
3. Send a new message immediately, or after cleanup completes.
4. Observe the execution hold despite the old sandbox having stopped.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on master at 7b829efdf6. The
branch is rebased on current master.

## What Changed

- Add optional provider stop receipts to sandbox release and destroy
hooks. Old plugins remain compatible.
- Bind receipts to the company, run, lease, and provider resource.
Failed cleanup cannot supply stop authority.
- Acknowledge legacy remote cancellation after confirmed termination.
- Admit native user continuations using remote receipts instead of host
process checks.
- Retire only the settled cleanup owner matching the stopped company,
run, and provider resource. Isolate cleanup gates between remote
sandboxes, including two sandboxes owned by one run.
- Reconsider user messages deferred during remote cleanup through normal
admission, including successful later cleanup retries.
- Preserve receipts through cleanup retries and inline cleanup after
failed startup.
- Permit provider destruction after a terminal remote checkpoint
failure. Busy ownership still blocks destruction.
- Add regression tests and update execution semantics.
- Give the real preview fixture ten seconds for cold startup. Reuse
release-mode Rust artifacts for the filtered parity checks, avoiding a
duplicate debug test build that exhausted CI disk twice; test filters
and assertions are unchanged.

## Verification

- Recursive typecheck and build passed.
- Targeted server, Daytona plugin, and native runtime tests passed. They
cover missing or mismatched receipts, failed cleanup, local process
protection, exact cleanup ownership, and a message sent during cleanup.
- Live Daytona tests passed for legacy Claude ACP, native per-turn,
native warm, and a newly created native runner using disposable
sandboxes. Each original run was cancelled; its explicit follow-up
completed with no execution hold. The disposable case confirmed a new
sandbox after deletion.
- Native tests used the provider's Opus 5 selector, `opus[1m]`, and the
Linux runner bundle from the sandbox image. Existing checkpoint/sync
finalization warnings remained visible before the native follow-ups
reached committed success. This change does not repair those separate
warnings or guarantee recovery of uncheckpointed files.
- A direct live provider test also passed with the final delete-wait
change: the destroy hook returned its receipt only after Daytona
reported the sandbox destroyed. The final Daytona plugin suite passed
all 153 tests; its build passed.
- After rebasing on master, 284 targeted server/plugin tests and 313
native executor tests passed. The native session runtime suite passed
all 128 tests.
- The review regression passed all 145 tests across the continuation,
environment runtime, and pending-cleanup sweep suites. Recursive
typecheck and build passed again after that fix.
- The security review's exact-resource finding is fixed. Cleanup
completion requires the same provider-resource scope used during session
creation. All 128 native runtime tests, 61 server continuation/cleanup
tests, recursive typecheck, and build passed after this fix. The
two-sandboxes-in-one-run regression proves one receipt cannot retire the
other quarantine.
- Greptile reviewed the final commit at 5/5, the security scan passed,
and no review threads remain unresolved. The final native executor suite
also passed all 313 tests.
- The full local suite reached 10,616 passing tests before stopping on
four failures. All four now pass in focused reruns: the final-code
continuation/teardown suites, the attachment suite, and the native
session test after building its required fake-provider binary. The
original full run overlapped source edits and did not reach the
remaining groups; it is not counted as a full-suite pass.
- The preview exposure suite passed all 25 applicable tests (three
Linux-only tests skipped locally) after the startup allowance change.
Both release-mode Rust parity commands passed locally. All final-head PR
checks passed, including full server/workspace/browser test groups, full
native runner verification, build, typecheck, canary dry-run, and the
aggregate gates.

## Risks

- A provider must return a receipt only after confirmed termination.
Incorrect provider claims could permit overlapping execution.
- Older providers without receipts retain the existing hold. Missing
evidence, failed cleanup, active ownership, pauses, approvals, and
budgets still block admission.
- This change preserves unknown action outcomes and old checkpoints. It
does not authorize replay or alter historical runs.
- No database migration or telemetry contract change is required.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with repository inspection, code execution,
and browser tools. The exact backend revision and context-window size
are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip fac07b42ad fix(runner): preserve durable native session authority across recovery (#13092)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The native runner carries tool results and task output to the
control plane.
> - A lost connection must not change which run owns a result.
> - A session must not become reusable while provider output is still
pending.
> - This pull request adds strict recovery evidence and bounded drain
barriers.
> - It preserves current PRP version negotiation and session-goal
support.
> - The benefit is safer reuse of native sessions after a transport
failure.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13038. This is the first of two stacked pull requests. It contains
the native runtime prerequisites. The second pull request contains the
experimental chat-channel integration. It preserves the provider
identity and typed terminal-failure contracts in #13074 and the durable
recovery work in #13075.

**What happened?**

Native session failures could leave retained provider events, incomplete
tool results, or warm handoff state that was not safe to reuse. A later
run could observe output from an earlier authority.

**Expected behavior**

Recovery must preserve exact run, tool, process, artifact, and lease
evidence. Uncertain or corrupt state must fail closed. A successful
close must prove that retained provider output is settled.

**Steps to reproduce**

Run the transport and control-plane regressions. They hold and drop
authenticated frames, fail durable writes, and restart fresh controllers
and runner processes with retained state. Provider executables are local
test fixtures.

## What Changed

- Preserve pending provider cleanup and semantic-result evidence across
session close and restart.
- Add an authenticated warm handoff with exact old and new identities,
durable receipts, and completion acknowledgement.
- Drain retained provider events under the cumulative acknowledgement
fence.
- Reject corrupt tool-result contracts without unsafe provider replay or
reusable checkpoints.
- Keep ordinary PRP v1 sessions and current session-goal behavior.
Require negotiated PRP v2 and acknowledged native session evidence
before warm authority rotation.
- Preserve late semantic inputs and exact durable result receipts until
close can prove settlement.
- Add transport, crash-window, artifact, checkpoint, and final-output
regressions.
- Deduplicate resolved execution delivery under the current issue lock.
Reuse the exact existing successor after concurrent scans or a lost
acknowledgement. Preserve newer operator evidence.
- Persist idle provider integrity/capacity failures before process
retirement, retain permanent model-rejection classification, and keep
external question identifiers out of task instructions.
- Expose only the context source on native status events. Keep thin
dispatch projections compatible without exposing the complete context.

## Verification

- Review-fix revision: 128 runtime-context/native-session tests, five
idle-failure/adjacent Rust cases, 24 warm crash-window cases, three
startup-notification/close cases, and five attach/backlog cases passed.
The security and idle-failure cases were first reproduced failing.
- Prior merged revision: runner production build, TypeScript typecheck,
complete Rust workspace tests and formatting passed; 272 focused runner
tests and two real PostgreSQL regressions passed.
- Earlier full runner runs and CI Build failed on missing
semantic-result fixture receipts, stale local provider fixture bytes,
startup-notification ordering, and a confirmation-loss fixture that
could accidentally send its final ACK. Each cause was reproduced and
corrected without relaxing production authority or close assertions.
These earlier runs are retained as failures, not represented as passing
verification.
- The first local repository-wide run failed before later phases because
the isolated install omitted PostgreSQL's native-library aliases; it
also encountered an unrelated occupied-port fixture. Those results are
retained, not represented as a passing run.
- Exact `335b2ee52709afb3885d4d6ebb2a3ece4b5864d6`: the complete runner
suite passed 1,888 tests, with 10 existing skips. The full Rust release
workspace passed with serial test scheduling. The unchanged parallel
Rust run hit the five-second 300-descendant fixture deadline; that
failure is retained. No deadline or assertion was relaxed.
- The resolved-execution regression suite passed 57 tests, including
concurrent delivery, lost acknowledgement, superseded authority, and
newer operator evidence. Plain server typecheck passed. The
duplicate-delivery cases were first reproduced failing.
- Prior exact `335b2ee52709afb3885d4d6ebb2a3ece4b5864d6` CI passed all
required jobs and Greptile reported 5/5. Its local general-server run
passed 7,208 tests but failed one responsibility fixture; later phases
did not run. The fixture started the next wake while its bounded handoff
was active. It also used nonexistent comment IDs, which hid the current
stored-message-author identity rule. The updated tests use real message
authors, preserve task ownership, and await exact automatic handoffs. No
production identity policy changed.
- Current head `aa39275a1f300f7d1a0b16cd0885eea567cff6b0` includes
current master and the native context-source projection. The focused
identity/status cohort passed 27 tests and plain server typecheck
passed. Fresh full repository tests, types, build, required CI, and
Greptile review are pending. Final results will be updated before merge.
- This is deterministic local-provider evidence. It is not a claim of
complete live-provider qualification.

## Risks

- This changes authenticated recovery and close ordering. The TypeScript
transport and runner binary must be built from the same revision.
- Failed or incomplete evidence intentionally prevents reuse and can
require a fresh run.
- PRP v1 ordinary/cold sessions remain supported. A v1 connection lease
cannot upgrade in place. A current v2-capable runner held on a v1 lease
was qualified through owned-process retirement/join, fresh bootstrap on
the same old authority, v2 observation/ACK, then warm rotation. Legacy
binary replacement and adopted-owner migration are not qualified by that
test; rollout must not present them as automatic same-lease upgrades.
- This pull request has no database migration or chat-channel
activation. The second pull request keeps the channel feature
experimental.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 6681104692 fix(runner): preserve provider identity and terminal failures (#13074)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The runner translates provider events into durable task execution.
> - Provider notifications can refer to another thread or a descendant.
> - Root validation treated these notifications as fatal, and later
layers could lose the original failure.
> - This pull request classifies event identity and preserves structured
terminal failures.
> - The server can then choose safe recovery without weakening tool
authority.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13038. This change incorporates the shared protocol-integrity and
bounded-cleanup prerequisites from that PR. It does not include the chat
feature. Related failure classification work: #13028.

**What happened?**
An informational provider notification for another thread could
terminate the root session. A failed stream could then become a
missing-result error and lose its cause.

**Expected behavior**
Ignore unrelated informational notices with bounded diagnostics. Reject
invalid authoritative events. Preserve the original failure code and
recovery meaning through cleanup.

**Steps to reproduce**
Run a native Codex task. Deliver a notification for an unrelated thread,
or close the stream after a structured failure. Inspect the root outcome
and recorded failure.

**Paperclip version or commit**
Reproduced before e20010472. This branch includes the current
session-goal contract from that commit.

**Deployment mode**
Built from source. Native runner with Codex.

## What Changed

- Classify root, provider-confirmed descendant, stale, unrelated, and
invalid provider events.
- Keep tool requests bound to their original execution authority.
- Preserve typed failures through transport, session, and durable
control-plane cleanup.
- Keep bounded cleanup failures separate from the primary execution
failure.
- Add compatible shared contracts for continuation context, execution
status, and explicit reconciliation. The dependent PR adds their server
and UI consumers.

## Verification

- Runner TypeScript and ACPX suites: 1,733 passed, 7 skipped. Node
contracts: 38 passed.
- Real provider-process fixtures cover 300 descendant identities across
restart, the 4,096-identity capacity boundary, and rejection of
continuation after terminal acknowledgement and restart.
- Repository build, typecheck, and full `pnpm test:run` passed on the
rebased stack (18,448 tests passed, 49 skipped). The full Rust workspace
passed with `--test-threads=1`; parallel execution exposed an existing
fixture port-reservation race. All latest-head CI checks passed. One
unchanged artifact-document concurrency test failed on the first CI run
and passed on its single rerun.
- Added notification, streaming failure, protocol integrity, cleanup
quarantine, and durable failure tests.

## Risks

Provider event classification must retain the new session-goal behavior
on master. Descendant notifications must never gain root tool authority.
Shared contract fields are additive. This PR does not migrate data or
start replacement provider work.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex. The exact deployment ID and context window
were not exposed. Used reasoning, tool use, code execution, and browser
automation.

DottaandPaperclip 2043e0c735 fix: repair runner configuration, macOS execution, and artifact galleries (#13062)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agent adapters select a provider, a model, and a runtime.
> - Runner conversion rejected existing Claude agents. The model list
mixed providers.
> - The native Claude runner rejected custom models and could not launch
on macOS.
> - This pull request fixes conversion, model selection, and verified
macOS execution.
> - It also groups configuration fields consistently across adapters and
opens artifact images in the task gallery.
> - Operators can change an agent configuration and run the selected
model on their Mac.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Converting an existing Claude agent to Paperclip Runner failed with a
Codex-only restriction. ACPX Claude showed unrelated models and required
`claude-sonnet-5`. Its native runtime rejected macOS. Configuration
mixed common model settings with process controls. Artifact cards
labeled “Open gallery” navigated to attachment URLs instead of opening
the task gallery.

**Expected behavior**

Conversion keeps agent identity and compatible settings. ACPX Claude
uses the normal Claude catalog and accepts typed model IDs. Codex uses
the native runner. The verified Claude runtime can launch on macOS ARM64
and x64. Common configuration sections place the same fields together
across adapters. Artifact images open in the shared task gallery with
navigation and downloads.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Open the configuration of an existing Claude agent.
2. Convert it to Paperclip Runner.
3. Select ACPX Claude and a different catalog model or a typed model ID.
4. Save the agent and run a disposable task on macOS.
5. Inspect configuration and advanced run-policy controls across
adapters.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The bugs were reproduced on `165ca56a22adb60e5fda56045442d9c8498116a8`.
This branch was rebased onto `7ed122911`.

**Deployment mode**

Built from source. Local test-drive instance on macOS ARM64 with an
isolated database.

Related work: #11798 addresses unsupported ACP session options in the
existing adapter path. #13048 addresses working-folder preservation.
This change fixes native runner configuration and launch behavior.

## What Changed

- Remove the Codex-only conversion restriction. Preserve agent identity,
instructions, directories, credentials, and compatible model settings.
Reset incompatible sessions while retaining history.
- Show ACPX Claude and native Codex as distinct provider choices. Remove
ACPX Codex from advertised configuration. Normalize legacy
configurations before fresh runs without rewriting historical run
descriptors.
- Select model catalogs and cache entries by provider. Support refresh
and typed model IDs. Pass exact Claude IDs through session creation,
model changes, and recovery.
- Add verified macOS ARM64 and x64 Claude SDK snapshots. Bound
executable allocation and total snapshot size. Preserve package checks,
dependency isolation, process ownership, cancellation, and Linux
descriptor loading.
- Probe local runtime readiness. Report remote platform checks as
incomplete until the remote runner verifies its runtime.
- Surface actual model rejection and allow correction and retry.
- Repair missing ACPX goal-capability helpers exposed by the post-rebase
live test. Persist and restore the optional capability without breaking
session startup.
- Put Agent identity first and intentionally remove the Capabilities
editor, as requested. This is removal of UI editing, not relocation:
preserve existing capability metadata and API compatibility without
adding another editor. Use the themed select for configurable permission
modes, with normal text instead of monospace.
- Put model and provider under Adapter. Give environment variables their
own section. Fold command and arguments under Configuration. Fold
lifecycle, timeout, and interrupt grace under Advanced Run Policy. Hide
single-option permission controls.

- Open image and video artifact cards in the existing task gallery,
including cards in the artifacts panel. Chat attachment images use the
same gallery. Preserve standalone media previews and download links.

## Verification

- Rebased focused UI/API/database suites: 293 tests passed.
- Rebased native runtime and ACPX suites: 242 passed, 7 skipped.
- Repository typecheck, build, and token gates passed for the runner
changes. Gallery follow-up UI typecheck, build, and token gates also
passed.
- Follow-up UI suites passed (86 tests), packaging checks passed (14
tests), and the final focused runtime suites passed (126 passed, 7
skipped).
- Linux container isolation and lifecycle fixtures passed before rebase
(57 passed, 2 skipped). Rust ACPX provider-session tests passed after
rebase (8 tests).
- Browser tests completed actual Claude and native Codex tasks on macOS
ARM64. They covered conversion, catalog refresh, a non-default catalog
model, a typed `haiku` ID, save/reload, cancel, follow-up session
continuity, invalid-model errors, and recovery.
- Final-revision live tests completed a typed Claude task, a follow-up
with the same provider session, and a native Codex task on macOS ARM64.
- Browser tests confirmed the moved interrupt-grace field saves and
survives reload. Cross-adapter tests cover Claude, Codex, Gemini,
process, gateway, and schema forms.
- Full local run: 7,080 passed, 30 skipped, and two timeouts. Both
timeout suites passed on isolated rerun (84 tests); the failures were
the plugin login-worker exit diagnostic and the runner real-server
vertical slice.
- Final follow-up checks: 50 registry tests and 45 snapshot/installation
tests passed (6 platform-specific skips). Oversized executable rejection
is covered before allocation or reading; unsupported-platform tests
invoke the real installation probe.
- Runner head `ddb5101c483a297f74875ab96b3c66035b002d50`: all CI gates
green, including full runner verification, repository build, typecheck,
general/serialized server suites, browser tests, and canary dry run. [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34286178670).
- Greptile: 5/5 on that runner head. All four review threads resolved.
Superagent, Socket, and Snyk checks green.
- After snapshot hardening, another real Claude task completed on this
Mac using the rebuilt runtime.

- Gallery follow-up: 148 focused tests passed, covering artifact
selection, shared attachment collections, deduplication, image/video
cards, standalone previews, downloads, and closing. Live browser
verification completed on the settings follow-up: artifact selection,
6-image pagination with wrapping, download action, and closing all
stayed on the same task URL. All checks passed on gallery head
`96136da58ff195bf6ca00b281eb3022ad12d7bd8`: [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34287987536).
Greptile returned 5/5 on that exact head with no unresolved threads.

- Final settings polish: 96 focused tests, UI typecheck/build, and token
gates passed. A real browser walkthrough verified readable permission
options, identity placement, Capabilities removal, and permission
save/reload. Original test-agent permission mode restored. All 31 checks
passed on final head `e46540d6bf32bfb0566dca16b2f4a75ba437618c`: [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34292797886).
Greptile returned 5/5 with no unresolved threads.

## Risks

- Capabilities intentionally has no editable UI field after this change.
Existing values remain readable and API-compatible; removing the field
does not erase stored metadata.

- macOS launch now copies verified package files into private snapshots.
The implementation must retain isolation and clean up snapshots on exit.
- Runtime provider or model changes reset the current session.
Historical runs remain available.
- The macOS x64 SDK executable digest was verified, but a live Intel Mac
run was not available. Linux verification used container fixtures, not a
real Claude task.
- Remote environment tests report a warning when only the platform has
been checked. They do not claim package readiness from the server host.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6. The exact served model identifier and
context-window limit are not exposed in this session. Used reasoning,
repository inspection, code execution, Rust and TypeScript tests, and
browser automation.

Dotta 0c1e7504c0 fix(runner): persist warm Daytona workspaces across turns (#12904)
## Thinking Path

> - Daytona preserves a stopped sandbox filesystem, but deleting or
replacing a sandbox removes its only remote copy.
> - Warm reuse therefore improves latency but cannot be Paperclip's
durability boundary.
> - The host execution workspace must remain authoritative after every
successful turn, while same-run recovery must avoid overwriting
unexported remote work.
> - Result proposal, workspace export/merge, and terminal completion
need a durable, replayable ordering so a crash never starts a duplicate
provider turn.
> - A paid browser acceptance suite must exercise both legacy Codex and
Runner Codex for three real turns on one continuously warm Daytona
sandbox.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #12901.

Runner Codex did not previously export successful Daytona workspace
changes back to the authoritative host workspace. That made warm reuse
depend on Daytona's remote filesystem and left deleted/replacement
sandboxes without a reliable reconstruction path. The existing paid
fixture also lacked a focused three-turn continuity case for both Codex
adapters.

## What Changed

- Persist versioned, atomic native workspace-sync descriptors and
durable seeds in `PAPERCLIP_HOME`, without credentials or a database
migration.
- Classify fresh, warm, replacement, and same-run-recovery workspace
preparation explicitly; ambiguous lease/root/digest evidence fails
closed.
- Finalize native workspace export/merge after semantic result proposal
and before run completion, with idempotent replay that never submits a
second provider turn.
- Surface legacy Codex workspace restoration failures instead of masking
them, while preserving an earlier provider error when both fail.
- Keep healthy reusable Daytona leases warm for legacy and native
adapters, stamp finalized workspace generations, and retain existing
cleanup behavior for per-turn or unhealthy leases.
- Preserve Runner Codex's provider process/session across warm turns,
including bounded post-terminal tail draining and exact authority
rotation.
- Add the exact paid `daytona-warm-continuity` matrix:
  - `legacy-codex × daytona × warm-three-turn`
  - `runner-codex × daytona × warm-three-turn`
- Drive all three turns through the browser, verify ordered file
continuity and stable lease/workspace/runtime identities, capture
per-turn timings, and delete the sandbox immediately after assertions.
- Document `pnpm test:e2e:runner -- --suite daytona-warm-continuity`; no
package script was added.

## Verification

- `pnpm typecheck` — passed, including migration safety (no migration
added)
- Focused server/runner Vitest coverage — 144 passed
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:unit` — 114 passed
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck` — passed
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner test:codex` — 66 passed,
1 helper ignored
- `native-session-executor.test.ts` — 139 passed, including safe
fail-closed cleanup after remote runner identity capture failure
- Paid local browser acceptance, exact post-rebase Linux/amd64 runner
binary:
- Runner Codex — passed in 1.7m; 3 runs; lease outcomes `created,
resumed, resumed`; 10/10 matchers; cleanup passed
- Legacy Codex — passed in 2.7m; 3 runs; lease outcomes `created,
resumed, resumed`; 10/10 matchers; cleanup passed
- [Protected paid GitHub Actions
campaign](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34026735033)
against `7da42a91b95fa7fb2df126668ef7e37afb3b2b9d` — passed 2/2:
- Runner Codex — 3 runs; lease outcomes `created, resumed, resumed`;
evidence and cleanup passed
- Legacy Codex — 3 runs; lease outcomes `created, resumed, resumed`;
evidence and cleanup passed
  - Merge/enforcement, S3 history, and Pages publication jobs passed
- Paid result artifacts were scanned for both provider credentials;
neither secret was present.
- Current PR checks — 31 passed, 1 expected Storybook skip; Greptile
5/5; Superagent security scan passed
- `git diff --check origin/master...HEAD` — passed
- Confirmed no `package.json`, lockfile, migration, or SQL changes.

## Risks

- Workspace synchronization now sits on the terminal-success path, so a
remote export failure deliberately prevents false success. Retryable
state retains its lease/seed; loss of the only unexported remote copy
fails closed.
- Warm provider reuse has strict identity and quiescence checks.
Mismatched or ambiguous evidence blocks reuse rather than risking
concurrent provider work.
- The paid suite incurs Daytona and Codex cost only in the existing
protected scheduled/manual workflow and explicitly destroys its sandbox
after each cell.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex with GPT-5 agentic reasoning, repository inspection, real
browser E2E execution, Rust/TypeScript test execution, and GitHub
Actions diagnostics.

Dotta bcc6fe7a44 fix(runner): restore multi-turn remote sessions (#12840)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - The runner executes agent turns on local and remote providers.
> - A remote per-turn session must save its state before Paperclip
releases its sandbox.
> - The session runtime returned after 100 milliseconds while the remote
checkpoint still ran.
> - The next turn also checked the local state path instead of the
verified remote backup.
> - This pull request waits for the bounded remote close and accepts
only a verified suspended backup.
> - The benefit is reliable multi-turn execution without weaker identity
checks.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A successful remote agent turn released its sandbox before the runner
saved the verified continuation backup. The next turn failed with
`runner_state_identity_mismatch`.

**Expected behavior**

Paperclip must finish the bounded remote checkpoint before it releases
the sandbox. A later turn must validate and restore the digest-matched
suspended backup.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run a native ACPX Claude Plan test in a non-reusable Daytona sandbox.
2. Reject the first plan to start a second turn.
3. Observe that the second turn fails before provider execution.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The failure reproduced at `13775a90b078ff64872f50961ea1b83d575e7bc6`.

**Deployment mode**

GitHub Actions with a Daytona sandbox.

## What Changed

- Wait for the internally bounded remote runner close and checkpoint
before the host returns.
- Preserve the existing short cleanup bound for other providers.
- Validate remote continuation lifecycle from a complete digest-verified
backup when local runner state is absent.
- Keep corrupt, non-suspended, mismatched, and unverified state
fail-closed.
- Make native Plan completion and accepted-Plan wake prompts
deterministic.

## Verification

- A prior 45-cell local campaign passed 44 cells. The only failure was
the OpenCode Plan prompt variance fixed here.
- A focused OpenCode local Plan rerun passed.
- ACPX Claude Daytona message and question cells passed.
- Focused regressions cover delayed checkpoint close and verified remote
backup lifecycle.
- GitHub Build and the focused ACPX Claude Daytona Plan cell will
validate this exact head.

## Risks

Remote runnerd sessions now wait for their internally bounded
close/checkpoint path before returning; generic provider cleanup retains
the existing 100 millisecond bound. Durable run success still cannot be
reversed. The environment release guard still blocks sandbox destruction
when no verified backup stamp exists.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-5.6, extended reasoning, with code execution and
GitHub Actions inspection.

Dotta 0f94521017 fix(runner): restore local session and task integrity (#12721)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the control plane for agents that perform work.
> - Paperclip Runner connects durable provider sessions to individual
task runs through PRP.
> - Provider continuity and per-run authority are different lifetimes.
> - The existing implementation mixed those lifetimes and lost event
metadata between provider frames, runnerd, persistence, API
sanitization, and the task thread.
> - That caused failed continuation, missing progress and Plans,
duplicate replies, hidden failures, and unsafe recovery.
> - This repair gives every heartbeat fresh authority, preserves
qualified provider-session continuity, and restores one lossless
presentation path without changing direct adapters.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A second native heartbeat could reuse tickets, leases, command receipts,
sequence state, and run identity from the first heartbeat. Provider
phase and item identity could be lost before the UI read them. Redaction
could corrupt protocol discriminators while still missing malformed
credential tails. The task thread could fold progress into the final
response, hide failures, or show more than one final answer. Native
Codex also exposed approval modes that do not yet have a durable
approval bridge.

**Expected behavior**

Each heartbeat uses a new PRP authority epoch. Codex and OpenCode
preserve exact qualified provider sessions; ACPX emits an explicit
continuity event when its qualified process-replacement policy is used.
Every accepted provider event is presented, classified as internal, or
surfaced as unsupported. The task page shows chronological progress,
reasoning summaries, activity, Plans, interactions, terminal failures,
and exactly one final reply. Direct adapters retain their existing path.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Enable the unified experimental Paperclip Runner setting.
2. Create a local native Codex, OpenCode, ACPX Claude, or ACPX Codex
agent.
3. Run response, Plan, structured-question/resume, restart,
cancellation, and failure scenarios.
4. Reload the task while active, waiting, failed, and settled.
5. On the old implementation, observe stale run authority, missing
classifications, incomplete output, or duplicated/folded replies.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The repair is based directly on `master` at
`87d05e194b643810d16d20612115acd01d735d43`.

**Deployment mode**

Local development with the embedded database.

## What Changed

- Rotates PRP control-plane, outbox, ticket, lease, command, receipt,
and sequence authority for each heartbeat while carrying forward only a
validated provider-session identity.
- Reads `control-plane-state.json`, validates both durable schemas and
lifecycle values, resumes coherent current runs, archives qualified
settled authority, and quarantines malformed or mismatched scoped state
without moving ambiguous live legacy state.
- Preserves Codex provider phase and stable item identities so
commentary remains progress and only `final_answer` becomes final.
- Adds raw OpenCode HTTP/SSE boundary coverage and canonical reasoning
lifecycle mapping.
- Makes ACPX normalization lossless for visible reasoning, tool
lifecycle metadata, stable bounded identities, Plan revisions,
structured requests, failures, and qualified process replacement. Only
the compatible terminal assistant message is promoted as final.
- Applies schema-aware redaction before generic JWT-shaped detection and
scans every diagnostic string leaf. Malformed raw/escaped quoted
credential tails are redacted in both server and durable Rust state.
- Restores snapshot-style chronological task presentation, expandable
tool activity, inline Plan cards, visible waiting/resume/cancel/failure
states, and exactly one final answer.
- Makes `never` the only qualified native Codex permission mode and
rejects unsupported persisted native modes with remediation. OpenCode
and ACPX policies remain intact.
- Keeps the unified experimental Runner setting as the only enablement
flag. Onboarding and direct Codex, Claude, and OpenCode stay on their
legacy execution/finalization paths.
- Adds cross-language goldens, authority/recovery/fault coverage, exact
response/count assertions, and native plus legacy acceptance scenarios.

## Verification

- Pull-request GitHub Actions run Rust formatting/tests, TypeScript
checks, server/UI tests, builds, protocol drift checks, browser E2E, and
security scans.
- A separate workflow-only validation ref is pinned directly on this PR
head and runs the 35-cell paid local matrix: three core scenarios plus
structured-question resume and restart/resume for native Codex, native
OpenCode, ACPX Claude, ACPX Codex, and direct Codex/Claude/OpenCode.
Run: https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/33682434315
- Acceptance requires exact single visible replies, monotonic sequences,
matching envelope discriminators, one semantic terminal, one run
terminal, no unresolved interaction, no duplicate mutation, no secret
leakage, provider continuity, and zero native rows for direct adapters.
- Per maintainer direction, tests are running in GitHub Actions rather
than on the slower local host. Only formatters and static diff checks
were run locally.

## Risks

- Recovery from old or partial filesystem state is sensitive. The repair
fails closed, preserves active or unverifiable authority, and
quarantines only state whose scoped ownership is safe to move.
- Provider event formats can change. Closed validators and boundary
goldens turn new or malformed events into visible diagnostics instead of
silent drops.
- Shared task presentation could affect direct adapters. Runtime-fact
gating plus the direct-adapter matrix protect the existing path.
- Managed and remote providers are not qualified here. Shared code
continues to compile and fail safely, but live qualification is
deferred.

Dotta 96421b0663 feat(runner): recover settled Codex ACPX sessions (#12407)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The runner package keeps provider sessions durable across process
restarts.
> - The merged Codex ACPX backend can admit a new qualified session
through the package factory.
> - It cannot yet recover a settled session from a durable checkpoint.
> - Recovery must prove the same provider identity, runtime root,
workspace, and latest terminal settlement before it resumes.
> - ACPX cannot yet prove continuity for a provider turn that was active
when the process stopped.
> - This pull request recovers only settled Codex ACPX checkpoints and
rejects ambiguous or stale state.
> - The benefit is fail-closed restart recovery without repeated work,
silent session replacement, or recovery of an older semantic result.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #12406

This pull request builds on the Codex ACPX backend route merged in
#12406. It adds only settled-session recovery and the package-local
durability and filesystem checks that recovery requires.

## What Changed

- Add settled-session recovery to the Codex ACPX harness driver and
advertise resume support for that bounded path.
- Keep provider recovery on the same persisted ACPX session. Do not
permit a replacement provider session.
- Require persisted run, normalized session, provider, profile,
workspace, permission, result, terminal, and recovery-policy identities
to agree.
- Reopen the provider with the exact persisted ACPX identity and reject
provider or qualification drift.
- Restore the last source sequence, terminal history, semantic result,
provider recovery policy, and normalized terminal fact before new work
can start.
- Clear a stale active-turn marker only when durable terminal history
proves that exact turn settled.
- Reject active-turn recovery when durable history cannot prove
provider-turn continuity.
- Require a semantic result to belong to the latest completed terminal
settlement.
- Reject an older completed semantic result when a later identical retry
failed or was interrupted.
- Reject resultless recovery unless the latest terminal turn completed
successfully.
- Bound terminal history and semantic-result recovery by entry count,
aggregate bytes, fingerprint bytes, node count, and nesting depth before
cloning or serializing persisted data.
- Read the private workspace record through pinned namespace,
runtime-root, record, and workspace identities.
- Reject symbolic links, substituted directories, replaced records,
invalid files, root workspaces, and workspace changes during admission.
- Keep the recovery workspace lease pinned and revalidate it at the host
and provider-spawn boundaries.
- Retain and close a workspace lease that resolves after cancellation.
Close a partially recovered provider session if lease cleanup fails.
- Stage a valid isolated Codex credential in the runtime-open-boundary
regression so the test reaches and proves the intended workspace
revalidation fence.
- Add focused recovery tests for settled checkpoints, terminal
ownership, stale semantic results, active turns, identity drift, bounded
persisted data, cancellation, directory substitution, record
replacement, and spawn-boundary workspace replacement.

## Verification

- Replay base: `30ef14edd4e7290d9eac43ca7b7835611933cc74` (`master`
after #12406 merged).
- Exact replay head: `3d1b16d5cda2dd72f83785c921a025cc57aab8d6`.
- Stable patch ID for the exact replay delta:
`10742d7db00f801b5723e7a8582c637261ceb0dd`. The source-stack combined
patch was `4d7c9de72a0a30f6e33c935c092b745fe414c588`; the replay
preserves the newer unconditional provider process-group containment
from `master` while adding recovery workspace revalidation before spawn,
plus the exact-head credential fixture correction exposed by GitHub
Actions.
- The exact pull request delta contains exactly 14 files:
  - `packages/paperclip-runner/src/backends/harness-driver-backend.ts`
-
`packages/paperclip-runner/src/backends/harness-driver-backend.test.ts`

  - `packages/paperclip-runner/src/native-session-runtime.ts`
  - `packages/paperclip-runner/src/native-session-runtime.test.ts`
- The exact combined delta is 2,279 additions and 73 deletions.
- This delta does not change dependencies, `pnpm-lock.yaml`, workspace
configuration, workflows, migrations, server selection, UI behavior, or
public package exports.
- Focused GitHub recovery tests: **PASS**. The exact-head Build job
passed the harness backend, native runtime, Codex ACPX driver, runtime
host, runtime sandbox, runtime adapter, and backend factory suites as
part of all 751 TypeScript runner tests.
- GitHub Actions: **PASS** for exact head
`3d1b16d5cda2dd72f83785c921a025cc57aab8d6`. Every applicable job passed.
The Storybook visual regression skipped intentionally because this
package-only delta does not touch UI or Storybook paths.
- Security checks: **PASS** for the exact head. Superagent, Snyk, both
Socket checks, and contributor trust completed successfully.
- Greptile: **5/5** for the exact head, with no open P1/P2 findings,
recommendations, or follow-ups.
- No local test result is claimed. GitHub Actions is the authoritative
verification environment for the replayed revision.

## Risks

This change has medium package-local risk because it admits persisted
state back into a provider session. Recovery fails closed when an active
provider turn has no matching terminal fingerprint, when a semantic
result is not owned by the latest completed settlement, when any durable
identity changes, or when the workspace cannot remain pinned through
provider spawn. Recovery never selects a replacement provider session.
Bounds prevent oversized or deeply nested persisted state from consuming
unbounded work before validation. The workspace lease prevents path
substitution during recovery admission. Existing direct adapters and the
Codex app-server driver do not use this ACPX recovery route. This change
does not add a migration, dependency, lockfile update, workflow, server
route, UI surface, public export, or production rollout flag.

it joins the exhausted final attempt, its batched intent must create one
new bounded generation when that exact cleanup fails.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #12404

**Subsystem affected**

This change affects `packages/paperclip-runner`, the Codex ACPX driver,
and the provider-neutral native session runtime.

**Problem or motivation**

The package has an admitted Codex ACPX session, bounded turn control,
and authenticated semantic tools. It does not have a `HarnessDriver`
implementation that joins those parts and emits canonical PRP events. It
also needs bounded ownership for provider cleanup that settles after a
caller-facing timeout. Cancellation can win after the host schedules
runtime admission and transfers the staged credential but before the
adapter body starts; that rejected admission must still prove that
provider cleanup is complete so the credential can be scrubbed and later
admission can proceed. Separately, an external close that coalesces onto
an exhausted autonomous reconciliation must not lose its cleanup intent
if that exact protocol or provider-process cleanup fails.

**Proposed solution**

Add a Codex-only harness driver. It opens the admitted host, executes
one active turn, normalizes ACPX events, dispatches run-scoped tools,
and commits one schema-valid completion or blocked result. It provides
bounded event storage, interruption, transcripts, usage, snapshots,
diagnostics, and ordered close behavior. The native session runtime
quarantines incomplete cleanup before another session can enter the same
cleanup domain. The ACPX adapter records the immutable origin and
attempt number of each exact close attempt. Autonomous reconciliation
failures stay inside the three-attempt budget of the generation that
created them. External callers that join an attempt are represented by
one idempotent batched intent: success consumes it, failure on an
earlier attempt uses the remaining same-generation retries, and failure
on the exhausted final attempt creates exactly one new bounded
generation. Both direct and late protocol/provider cleanup outcomes use
the same rule. At the adapter entry boundary, an already-aborted
admission transfers an already-complete cleanup proof before rethrowing
the exact abort reason; the host retains credential cleanup until that
proof settles.

**Alternatives considered**

The multi-provider integration driver was not copied because it mixes
deferred providers and recovery behavior into the Codex path. Direct
server registration was also deferred because this package slice must
remain inactive and independently safe. Relabeling a coalesced
autonomous attempt as external was rejected because it would let
observers replenish retry budgets; starting another protocol close
before the exact retained attempt settles was rejected because it would
overlap cleanup ownership.

**Roadmap alignment**

This is package-local production hardening for the experimental runner.
It does not enable a new adapter or change current agent execution
selection.

## What Changed

- Add a Codex-only ACPX `HarnessDriver` and session implementation.
- Advertise only implemented capabilities. Keep resume, steering,
runtime request resolution, runtime request handoff, goals, and thread
lineage unavailable.
- Emit canonical PRP turn, transcript, tool execution, final reply,
result, failure, interruption, and usage facts.
- Dispatch authorized dynamic tools through the authenticated semantic
bridge.
- Validate and commit one completion or blocked result with disposition
and conflict checks.
- Add stable bounded event identities, one-active-turn admission,
terminal capacity reservation, and bounded interruption.
- Redact authorization credentials from emitted events and retained
transcripts.
- Add read, reconcile, transcript, usage, snapshot, status,
interruption, and ordered close surfaces.
- Retain and quarantine host cleanup that outlives a caller-facing close
bound.
- Gate new native-session admission on prior cleanup in the same cleanup
domain.
- Preserve durable success and governed waits while provider cleanup
continues under bounded ownership.
- Transfer a completed cleanup proof when cancellation wins before the
Codex adapter body, then preserve the caller's exact abort reason.
- Add a host-level regression proving staged credentials are scrubbed,
the credential lease can be reacquired, and a later runtime admission
succeeds after that pre-entry abort.
- Tag each exact ACPX close attempt with an immutable external or
reconciliation origin and immutable reconciliation attempt number.
- Keep timed-out autonomous reconciliation failures inside their
originating three-attempt budget.
- Batch concurrent external callers that join one reconciliation attempt
so they cannot mint independent generations.
- Consume a joined external intent on successful cleanup and on an
earlier failed attempt that still has same-generation retries.
- Renew exactly one bounded generation when a joined external intent
reaches a failed, exhausted final reconciliation attempt.
- Treat both protocol-close and provider-process cleanup failures as
failed intent settlement, including non-timeout and timed-out late
paths.
- Prevent a coalescing external observer from relabeling an immutable
autonomous attempt.
- Reset the finite reconciliation budget only for a distinct external
late-failure generation or one failed batched intent on an exhausted
final attempt.
- Isolate persistent-cleanup tests by cleanup domain and attach expected
rejection handlers before fake timers release them.
- Stabilize cleanup-settlement assertions exposed by GitHub Actions:
observe retained proofs without relying on callback order, wait for the
credential lease release rather than only the preceding credential-file
deletion, and use a supported scalar size assertion instead of an
unavailable Set matcher.
- Add focused tests for driver behavior, event validation, bounded
buffers, cleanup quarantine, admission gating, immutable attempt
origins, final-attempt intent batching, direct and late cleanup
failures, late success consumption, bounded reconciliation, exact
pre-entry cancellation, credential recovery, and durable native-session
outcomes.

## Verification

- Exact head: `584cc420f6ca249cdc0a831779192ca827764d96`.
- Stable patch ID for the combined exact delta:
`5329d8123baf62c339a15bdff16717b3803ebb74`.
- Stack position: #12404 is merged. This pull request targets `master`.
#12406 is stacked on this pull request.
- The exact pull request delta contains eight files:
  - `packages/paperclip-runner/src/drivers/acpx/codex-acpx-driver.ts`
- `packages/paperclip-runner/src/drivers/acpx/codex-acpx-driver.test.ts`

  - `packages/paperclip-runner/src/native-session-runtime.ts`
  - `packages/paperclip-runner/src/native-session-runtime.test.ts`
- `git diff --check` passed for the exact eight-file delta.
- This delta does not change dependencies, `pnpm-lock.yaml`, workflows,
migrations, server selection, UI behavior, or production runner wiring.
- GitHub previously exposed an unsupported Set matcher in the
cleanup-settlement regression; this exact delta uses the
repository-supported scalar `size` assertion without changing the tested
behavior.
- GitHub Actions: **PASS** for the exact head. The complete matrix is
green after a failed-job-only rerun cleared one unrelated
`plugin-worker-manager-duplex` flake; no patch or restack occurred.
- Security checks: **PASS** for the exact head (Superagent, Snyk,
Socket, and contributor trust).
- Greptile: **PASS, 5/5** on the exact head with no open P1/P2 findings,
recommendations, or follow-ups.
- No local test result is claimed. GitHub Actions is the authoritative
verification environment for this revision.

## Risks

This change has medium package-local risk. It adds a new driver and
changes native-session cleanup coordination. A lagging event consumer
could otherwise lose terminal state. The driver reserves terminal
capacity and rejects new work when bounded storage cannot safely accept
it. A stalled, rejected, or late provider close could otherwise overlap
a new session, retain credentials indefinitely, lose an external cleanup
request, or consume unlimited retries. Cleanup-proof transfer keeps the
staged credential owned across the pre-entry abort race, while the host
scrubs it only after the adapter proves that no provider resource
exists. Cleanup quarantine blocks conflicting admission and keeps exact
attempts owned. Immutable attempt origins and attempt numbers prevent
autonomous retries and coalesced observers from silently replenishing
the cap. One batched external intent can renew one generation only after
the exhausted final attempt fails; earlier failures remain within the
original generation, and success consumes the intent. Each renewed
generation remains capped at three autonomous attempts. The driver
reports recovery and other unimplemented capabilities as unavailable. No
server or runnerd factory selects this driver in this pull request.

Dotta 06f8773097 feat(runner): add Codex session driver (#12371)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The package now has bounded Codex transport, security, question,
diff, value, and thread helpers
> - Those isolated boundaries can now be composed into one provider

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

`packages/paperclip-runner` Codex app-server session driver.

**Problem or motivation**

The runner needs a production-shaped Codex session implementation that
turns provider facts into canonical PRP events while keeping task
identity, semantic completion, runtime input, and recovery under
controller authority.

**Proposed solution**

Compose the previously reviewed transport and normalization boundaries
into a Codex-only harness driver with session open/resume, turns,
streaming events, semantic tools, structured questions, goals, lineage,
usage, cancellation, reconciliation, and deterministic persisted
snapshots.

**Alternatives considered**

Keeping the full implementation in one initial transport pull request
would obscure the trust boundaries. Adding the deferred ACPX or OpenCode
paths here would also broaden the provider scope beyond the Codex-first
series.

**Roadmap alignment**

This implements the Codex provider slice inside the package. It does not
enable the runner adapter or change any existing direct adapter path.

## What Changed

- Added the Codex app-server harness driver and session lifecycle.
- Added controller-bound semantic completion and terminal handling.
- Added runtime requests, structured questions, goals, lineage, usage,
steering, interruption, and recovery.
- Added workspace diff and file-reference projection.
- Connected bounded/redacted provider data and notification identity
checks.
- Kept deferred provider identities and replacement behavior out of the
Codex-only driver.
- Added 62 focused driver cases covering lifecycle, security, recovery,
and protocol failures.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner test:typescript` (34
files, 337 tests)
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm build`
- The focused Codex driver suite has 62 passing cases.

## Risks

The main risks are accepting provider events from the wrong session,
duplicating terminal facts, retaining unsafe provider data, or resuming
a different session. Tests cover pre-turn, cross-thread, stale-turn,
post-terminal, duplicate-result, cancellation, transport loss, provider
identity, workspace, redaction, structured input, and recovery cases.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex with GPT-5.6 and repository tool use.

Dotta d18e281c33 Add the native runner session runtime (#12352)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The Paperclip Runner package needs one provider-neutral session loop
> - Native execution contracts now define the accepted input and output
> - Backends still need bounded execution, recovery, and control-plane

> - The benefit is a tested execution core for later provider and server
layers

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

packages/paperclip-runner

**Problem or motivation**

The runner contracts do not yet have a shared session loop. Each backend
would otherwise duplicate event handoff, terminal handling, recovery
cursors, timeouts, and checkpoint behavior.

**Proposed solution**

Add the native session runtime, backend interfaces, control-plane port,
harness driver contract, deterministic conformance helpers, and bounded
tests.

**Alternatives considered**

The server could own this loop. That would mix provider process behavior
with server persistence and authority logic.

**Roadmap alignment**

This is part of the existing experimental Paperclip Runner rollout. It
does not enable a production adapter.

## What Changed

- Add a provider-neutral native session execution loop.
- Add recovery cursor reconciliation and checkpoint hooks.
- Add bounded timeout and governed-wait behavior.
- Add harness driver and control-plane conformance helpers.
- Add deterministic backend and session runtime tests.

## Verification

## Risks

The main risk is a session that hangs, duplicates an event, or restores
the wrong cursor after reconnect. Tests cover terminal events, timeouts,
durable handoff, duplicate receipts, recovery, continuity breaks, and
checkpoint updates. The change remains package-local.

> For core feature work, check [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md) first and
discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. Feature PRs that overlap
with planned core work may need to be redirected — check the roadmap
first. See `CONTRIBUTING.md`.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, `gpt-5`, with agentic reasoning, tool use, and code
execution.
