DottaandPaperclip 148a5b11f5 Route blocked transitions to explicit unblock owners (#10112)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source control plane people use to coordinate
AI-agent companies.
> - Issue status transitions determine whether work keeps moving or
silently stalls.
> - A blocked issue previously could rely on prose alone, leaving the
intended unblock owner unstructured and unnotified.
> - Existing blocker-attention classification could identify stalled
chains, but the signal was not delivered to the board attention feed.
> - Blocked transitions also need rollout-safe deduplication so upgrades
do not notify for historical issues and repeated processing does not
create notification storms.
> - This pull request adds structured unblock descriptors, prospective
transition timestamps, owner delivery, and board attention routing with
focused authorization controls.
> - The benefit is that newly blocked work has an explicit, routable
next action without weakening company boundaries or allowing agents to
inject arbitrary human attention items.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related documentation PR: #10094.

### Subsystem affected

Cross-cutting: `server/`, `packages/db`, and `packages/shared`.

### Problem or motivation

An issue can enter `blocked` without a machine-readable unblock path.
Prose-only ownership does not reliably wake the responsible agent or
surface human-owned work, while the existing `blockerAttention`
classifier is not delivered to an operator-facing attention feed.

### Proposed solution

Require new transitions into `blocked` to have unresolved blockers, a
pending interaction/approval, or a structured `{ owner, action }`
descriptor. Notify an allowed owner once per prospective transition,
route human-owned cases to board attention, and leave pre-rollout
blocked issues untouched.

### Alternatives considered

- Keep prose-only blockers: rejected because ownership remains
unroutable.
- Backfill all historical blocked issues: rejected because upgrades
would create notification storms.
- Let agents target arbitrary users or the board: rejected after
security review because it creates an attention-injection channel.

### Roadmap alignment

Aligns with `ROADMAP.md` → “Enforced Outcomes (watchdogs, recovery
actions, review gates)” by making blocked work carry an explicit
continuation path.

### Additional context

The implementation is prospective-only and deduplicated per blocked
transition. Agent-authored descriptors are limited to the acting agent;
board actors retain human-owner routing.

## What Changed

- Added persisted unblock descriptors and prospective blocked-transition
delivery timestamps with an idempotent migration.
- Added shared types and validation for board, user, and agent unblock
owners.
- Enforced valid blocked transitions and same-company owner validation
in the issue update route.
- Restricted agent-authored descriptors to the acting agent itself,
preventing board/user attention injection by compromised agents.
- Added one-per-transition agent wake delivery and prospective-only
rollout gating.
- Routed human-owned blocker attention into the board attention feed.
- Added focused tests for validation, prospective delivery, flap
deduplication, attention routing, route authorization, and stop-relay
compatibility.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issue-agent-mutation-ownership-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/routable-blocked.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/attention-service.test.ts
packages/shared/src/validators/issue.test.ts`
- `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID= AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY= pnpm test:run`
- `pnpm build`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db check:migrations`

## Risks

- Behavioral shift: new `blocked` transitions without a real blocker,
pending governed action, or structured descriptor now return `422`.
- Notification abuse is constrained by same-company validation, agent
self-only routing, prospective rollout gating, and transition-scoped
deduplication.
- Migration risk is low: columns are additive, nullable, and use `IF NOT
EXISTS`; historical blocked issues are not backfilled or notified.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 216d3d2680 Managed-instance config: fail-closed PAPERCLIP_MANAGED_CONFIG parsing and read-time settings overlay (#10058)
**Builds on.** #10055 — the `catalogVersion` this config document pins
is the feature-catalog artifact #10055 emits.

**Summary.** Instances operated by a managed hosting control plane can
now receive instance configuration through a single environment
variable, `PAPERCLIP_MANAGED_CONFIG` (versioned JSON: `mode`,
`catalogVersion`, `features`, `plugins.autoInstall`). When the variable
is absent the instance is self-hosted and nothing changes. When present,
parsing is strict and **fail-closed**: blank value, malformed JSON,
unknown feature key, a feature key this build's feature catalog does not
mark tier `managed`, missing required section, or unsupported version
refuses startup with a precise error — a typo that silently does nothing
is how a security control quietly fails. Managed feature values are
overlaid **at read time** inside the instance settings service (never
persisted), so a DB restore or manual row edit cannot resurrect a
disabled capability; responses expose per-key `managedKeys` metadata
(`managed: true`, `managedBy`) so clients can render locked state.

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Paperclip runs both self-hosted and under managed hosting, where an
operator's control plane owns instance configuration
> - Today instance feature settings live only in the tenant database; a
hosting control plane has no way to enforce a configuration that
tenant-side writes or restores cannot undo
> - Managed configuration will carry security posture, so delivery must
be atomic and parsing must fail closed — a typo that silently does
nothing is how a security control quietly fails
> - This pull request adds strict parsing of one
`PAPERCLIP_MANAGED_CONFIG` env var and overlays its feature values at
read time inside the settings service, never persisting them
> - The benefit is a minimal, auditable managed-hosting contract: absent
var ⇒ self-hosted instances are byte-for-byte unchanged; present ⇒
deterministic, locked configuration surfaced to clients via per-key
managed metadata

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #966 — this PR delivers that issue's "managed config injection"
hook, via a strict env-var contract rather than the config-file path it
sketches; the issue's other hooks (identity header, health, usage
webhook, lifecycle, external secrets, IAM auth) are out of scope, so the
PR refs rather than closes it.

*Mechanism differs from #966's proposal, so the `feature_request` fields
are also filled in:*

- **Problem or motivation:** managed hosting deployments need to
centrally enable/disable instance features; DB-stored settings can be
edited, restored, or migrated back to permissive values, and nothing
marks a value as operator-enforced.
- **Proposed solution:** one versioned JSON env var; fail-closed parse
at startup; read-time overlay in the settings service (precedence:
managed value over stored value over schema default); `managedKeys`
metadata in settings responses so clients can render locked state.
- **Alternatives considered:** per-feature env vars (non-atomic across a
half-updated env set, unbounded env surface); seeding the DB at boot
(persisted values can be edited or restored over, and cannot express
"forced"); lenient warn-and-drop parsing (fails open — unacceptable for
a security-bearing control).
- **Roadmap alignment:** supports the in-progress "Cloud deployments"
milestone in `ROADMAP.md`.

## What Changed

- New `server/src/services/managed-config.ts` (pure parser over the env
record)
- Startup parse ordered before the first `instanceSettingsService`
construction in `server/src/index.ts`
- Read-time merge + `managedKeys` in the settings service
- Shared validator updates

## Verification

- 29 parser/overlay tests (fail-closed matrix incl. blank/whitespace
env, missing sections, catalog-tier mismatch, empty-section happy path):
`pnpm vitest run src/__tests__/managed-config.test.ts
src/__tests__/instance-settings-managed-overlay.test.ts` (from
`server/`)
- 40 existing settings route/service tests green: `pnpm vitest run
src/__tests__/instance-settings-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/instance-settings-service.test.ts` (from `server/`)
- 15 shared validator tests: `pnpm vitest run
src/validators/instance.test.ts` (from `packages/shared/`)
- Server `tsc --noEmit` clean: `pnpm typecheck` (from `server/`)

## Risks

- Self-hosted instances (no `PAPERCLIP_MANAGED_CONFIG` set) are
byte-for-byte unchanged — the parser only runs when the variable is
present.
- For managed instances, a malformed document now refuses startup by
design (fail-closed). This is an intentional behavioral guarantee, not a
regression: the control plane owns the variable and a precise startup
error is the contract.
- Overlay values are never persisted, so no migration or data-shape
risk.

## Model Used

Claude Fable 5 (`claude-fable-5`), extended thinking, agentic tool use;
independently peer-reviewed by a second AI agent before push.

DottaandPaperclip cac3c0fa1a feat(connections): add runtime subjects and grants (#9982)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Connections is the subsystem that lets operators connect external
apps and govern which subjects may use those credentials
> - #9958 established the v3 schema foundation and #9981 adds the
AppDefinition catalog layer
> - The runtime still needs subject-aware authorization state, scoped
key handling, and API/OpenAPI routes so connected apps can actually be
granted and used safely
> - This pull request adds the runtime grants/authorization behavior on
top of the catalog branch, while keeping unrelated dependency and
workflow sync commits out of the stack
> - The benefit is a reviewable runtime layer that can land after the
catalog PR, then unblock the wizard and orchestrator cutover work

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #9958 and #9981.
Refs #9981.

No public GitHub issue exists for this branch. This is the runtime layer
for the Connections v3 stack and is rebased onto `master` after #9981
landed.

## What Changed

- Adds the connection user authorization state migration and schema
wiring.
- Adds shared runtime subject/grant types and validators.
- Adds runtime grant and scoped key behavior in the tool-access service.
- Adds runtime route coverage and registers the routes in OpenAPI.
- Replays only the Connections runtime commits on top of the catalog
branch, dropping unrelated sync/dependency history from the prior closed
runtime PR.

## Verification

- `pnpm run preflight:workspace-links`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/shared/src/validators/tool-access.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts`

## Risks

- Medium: runtime grant enforcement is security-sensitive and must fail
closed for unknown key scopes.
- Migration ordering depends on the schema and catalog layers already
merged through #9958 and #9981.
- This PR is rebased and retargeted to `master` with runtime-only
commits.

DottaandPaperclip d23fbf8ae4 feat(connections): add AppDefinition Wave 1 catalog (#9981)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Connections is the subsystem that defines which external apps and
MCP-style integrations operators can browse, configure, and run
> - The v3 schema core in #9958 added stable connection identities, auth
metadata, and grant-aware contracts, but the app catalog still used the
older gallery shape
> - The product needs a richer, typed AppDefinition catalog so browsing
and setup can render provider-specific auth and configuration
requirements consistently
> - This pull request moves the Wave 1 app catalog onto generated
AppDefinition data and carries that shape through shared types, server
lookup paths, and app connection UI
> - The benefit is that follow-up runtime and wizard work can build
against one catalog contract instead of local-only mock/gallery data

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #9958.

No public GitHub issue exists for this branch. This is the catalog layer
for the Connections v3 stack after the schema-core foundation in #9958.

## What Changed

- Adds generated AppDefinition data for the Wave 1 catalog and ingestion
reporting.
- Replaces the legacy tool app gallery exports with
AppDefinition-centered shared contracts, validators, and tests.
- Updates server tool-access lookup behavior to use the AppDefinition
catalog.
- Updates app connection UI surfaces and tests to consume
AppDefinition-backed catalog data.
- Documents the catalog ingestion workflow in the connector playbook.

## Verification

- `pnpm run preflight:workspace-links`
- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/app-definitions.test.ts
packages/shared/src/app-definitions-url.test.ts
ui/src/pages/apps/AppsConnect.test.tsx
server/src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts`

## Risks

- Medium: this changes the catalog contract used by shared, server, and
UI app connection surfaces.
- Catalog data quality matters because generated definitions now drive
browse/setup display.
- Follow-up runtime and wizard PRs must rebase on this branch or on
master after this lands.

DottaandPaperclip 7e00f67138 feat(connections): add v3 schema core (#9958)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source control plane people use to manage
AI-agent companies and their governed access to external systems.
> - Connected Apps build on the existing Apps and MCP gateway substrate
so companies can configure reusable, auditable integrations.
> - The current connection record does not yet have a stable public
address, explicit ownership/auth method fields, or subject-specific
credential grants.
> - Without that schema core, later OAuth, per-user authorization, token
brokering, triggers, and connector-service phases cannot enforce tenant
and subject boundaries consistently.
> - This pull request adds the forward-compatible Connections v3 schema
core while preserving the existing connection lifecycle and directly
migrating the remote MCP transport name.
> - The benefit is a company-scoped, least-privilege foundation for
one-click integrations without bypassing Paperclip secrets, profiles,
rules, or audit controls.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No matching public issue was found.

**Problem**

Paperclip's current app connections need a durable identity and
authorization substrate before Connected Apps can safely support
multiple setup methods, per-user credentials, provider tenants, and
managed connector services. The existing schema only models a single
connection-level credential set and uses legacy transport terminology.

**Proposed solution**

Add a stable company-scoped connection UID, explicit
ownership/auth/transport fields, a subject-aware `connection_grants`
table, and multi-key credential annotations. Backfill existing
connections and workspace grants in a reversible migration, then update
shared/server/UI contracts to the new `mcp_remote` transport name.

**Related work**

- Related foundation: #9534
- Roadmap: Connected Apps (one-click integrations)

## What Changed

- Added company-scoped connection `uid`, `ownership`, `authKind`, and
canonical transport fields across database, shared contracts,
validators, services, and UI fixtures.
- Added `connection_grants` with workspace/user subject rules, provider
tenant metadata, credential secret refs, revocation state, company
scoping, and uniqueness constraints.
- Added migration `0182_connections_v3_schema_core` to backfill stable
UIDs, rename `remote_http` to `mcp_remote`, infer auth kinds, create
default workspace grants, and support rollback coverage.
- Added multi-key credential annotations and updated gateway/access
services without changing the existing lifecycle behavior.
- Updated the connection glossary, connector playbook, and security
threat model for the new identity, grant, and relay boundaries.
- Added explicit test UIDs to direct database fixtures so the new
non-null invariant is exercised across affected server suites.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts

packages/db/src/connections-v3-schema-core-migration.test.ts
packages/shared/src/validators/tool-access.test.ts --config
vitest.config.ts` — 9 files, 218 tests passed.
- Latest-head GitHub Actions: build, typecheck, general/serialized
suites, backup/worktree restore coverage, both e2e shards, canary,
policy, and security scans pass.
- Greptile: 5/5 with zero unresolved threads.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` remains red only on five pre-existing `#9627`
color literals outside this change.

## Risks

- **Migration risk:** UID backfill and default-grant creation touch
every existing connection. The migration uses company-scoped uniqueness,
deterministic legacy UIDs with ID suffixes, and seeded up/rollback
coverage.
- **Authorization risk:** Grant rows carry credential references.
Constraints enforce workspace-vs-user subject shape, company/connection
lookup indexes, one default grant per connection, and one user grant per
connection/subject. Security review is requested specifically for this
design.
- **Compatibility risk:** `remote_http` is renamed directly to
`mcp_remote`; all repository call sites and fixtures are updated in the
same change.
- **Future-phase risk:** Subject-bound token issuance, triggers, and
connector-service relay verification remain fail-closed requirements
documented for later phases; this PR does not expose those capabilities.

1f1f545238 feat: add built-in summarizer and summary slots (#9713)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source control plane people use to organize,
govern, and understand AI-agent work
> - Operators need concise, current status views across projects and
execution workspaces without manually reading every issue and run
> - Paperclip already has auditable issues, documents, built-in agents,
routines, and live run events, but no first-class summary-slot workflow
connecting those systems
> - A built-in Summarizer can generate status prose through ordinary
governed tasks while summary slots provide stable, revisioned
destinations for that output
> - The UI needs to show current summaries, generation progress,
failures, revisions, and streaming draft status in the places operators
already work
> - This pull request adds the end-to-end summary-slot data, API, agent,
orchestration, and UI surfaces behind an experimental setting
> - The benefit is decision-oriented status context that remains
company-scoped, auditable, retryable, and inexpensive by default

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this feature.

**Problem**

Operators currently have to reconstruct project and workspace status by
reading many issues, runs, and comments. This makes it hard to identify
decisions, review queues, recent work, and the next event worth
watching.

**Proposed capability**

Add an experimental summary system with revisioned summary slots for
projects and workspaces, a paused-by-default built-in Summarizer agent,
governed generation tasks, live draft status, and reusable UI cards.

**Expected behavior**

- Summary data remains company-scoped and revisions remain auditable.
- Generation runs through normal issue/agent orchestration and
deduplicates active requests.
- Only the linked built-in Summarizer generation task can author a slot
revision.
- Operators can generate, retry, inspect revisions, and follow draft
progress from project and workspace views.
- The feature remains opt-in and background generation remains paused by
default.

## What Changed

- Added summary-slot schema, idempotent migrations, shared contracts,
validators, API paths, and service tests.
- Added company-scoped summary-slot routes for reading revisions,
requesting generation, and guarded Summarizer writes with activity
logging.
- Added terminal generation finalization, failure reasons, assignment
wakeups, and orchestration integration.
- Added the paused-by-default built-in Summarizer bundle, low-cost
runtime defaults, status-summarization skill, and stale-summary routine.
- Added summary cards, revision selection, retry/configuration states,
live draft streaming, transcript chunk handling, and project/workspace
integrations.
- Updated Claude local parsing for streamed status output and expanded
server, adapter, shared, database, catalog, and UI coverage.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/db/src/summary-slots-schema.test.ts
packages/shared/src/summary-slot.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/summary-slot-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/summary-slots.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/built-in-agents.test.ts
ui/src/components/SummarySlotCard.test.tsx
ui/src/components/SummarySlotCard.status.test.tsx
ui/src/components/useSummaryDraftStream.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/summary-draft-stream.test.ts
ui/src/lib/run-log-chunks.test.ts
ui/src/context/LiveUpdatesProvider.hook.test.tsx` — 113 tests passed
- `pnpm test:run` — server and UI suites passed; one CLI AWS doctor test
was affected by inherited `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID`/`AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`,
and passed when those host credentials were removed
- `pnpm exec vitest run cli/src/__tests__/secrets.test.ts` with
inherited AWS credential variables removed — 8 tests passed
- `pnpm build`
- `pnpm check:token-gates` currently reports nine `#9627` comment
references introduced by current `master`; none are in this PR diff

## Risks

- Database risk is limited by incrementally ordered, idempotent
migrations and migration safety checks.
- Summary generation creates normal issues/runs, so misconfiguration can
produce failed slots; the UI exposes retryable failure reasons and agent
configuration entry points.
- Streaming draft parsing depends on the documented `STATUS:` protocol;
final persisted revisions remain the source of truth.
- The feature is experimental, opt-in, and its built-in routine is

59fb27ff79 feat(inbox): let agents safely tidy user inboxes (#9724)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source control plane people use to manage
AI-agent companies and their work
> - The inbox is a per-user attention view, so archiving an item must
not alter the underlying issue, assignment, or status
> - Agents can help responsible users tidy resolved work only when the
action is company-scoped, reversible, policy-controlled, and fully
attributable
> - The database and authorization foundations landed in #9654 and
#9658, but the end-to-end archive routes, audit details, agent workflow
guidance, and operator UI still need to ship together
> - Separate stacked PRs #9659 and #9661 made the complete behavior
harder to review and land as one coherent capability
> - This pull request consolidates the remaining server,
shared-contract, documentation, skill, and UI work on top of current
master
> - The benefit is a single reviewable change that lets agents safely
archive responsible-user inbox items and lets users control or undo that
behavior

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

### Subsystem affected

Cross-cutting inbox management across shared contracts, server
authorization/routes/services, shipped agent skills, and the board UI.

### Problem or motivation

Agents may complete work whose issue remains in the responsible user's
Mine inbox. Existing board-user archive behavior does not provide the
agent-facing policy endpoints, target resolution, heartbeat-run
attribution, typed denials, conservative workflow guidance, or UI needed
for safe agent-managed cleanup.

### Proposed solution

Allow authorized agents to archive or unarchive responsible-user inbox
items under the user's open, allowlist, or disabled policy; preserve
actor/agent/run attribution in issue detail and activity records; expose
policy controls and agent archive attribution in the UI; and document
conservative cleanup rules for agents and PR gardening.

### Alternatives considered

- Reuse generic issue mutation permissions: rejected because inbox state
belongs to a target user and requires user-scoped authorization.
- Automatically archive every completed or closed item: rejected because
completion signals can still require human review or a decision.
- Keep the backend and UI as separate stacked PRs: superseded by this
consolidated PR so the complete user-visible behavior can be reviewed
and verified together.

### Related work

- Builds on merged foundations #9654 and #9658.
- Supersedes the remaining stacked changes in #9659 and #9661.
- `ROADMAP.md` has no overlapping inbox archive or inbox authorization
initiative.

## What Changed

- Added shared inbox-agent policy types and validators plus
company-scoped self-service policy routes and OpenAPI coverage.
- Enabled agent archive/unarchive mutations with responsible-user
targeting, policy enforcement, typed failures, attribution, idempotency,
and detailed activity auditing.
- Returned agent archive attribution in issue detail and documented
reversible inbox cleanup semantics in the implementation spec and
Paperclip skill.
- Added conservative PR-gardening inbox tidy guidance that keeps GitHub
access read-only and avoids archiving work that still needs human
action.
- Added the Profile settings policy control and Issue Properties
attribution/unarchive UI with focused component coverage and narrow-pane
handling.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/inbox-archive-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/inbox-agent-policy-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/authorization-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts
ui/src/components/InboxAgentPolicyControl.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueProperties.test.tsx` — 110 passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db exec vitest run
src/inbox-archive-agent-policies-migration.test.ts` — 1 passed.
- `node --test
.agents/skills/pr-gardening/scripts/pr-gardening.test.mjs` — 9 passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — changed files are clean; the
repository-wide command currently reports nine unrelated pre-existing
`#9627` literals outside this PR's diff.

## Risks

- Agent inbox mutations broaden an existing endpoint path, so
authorization and target resolution must remain fail-closed; focused
route and authorization tests cover allowed and denied paths.
- Archive state affects only the responsible user's inbox presentation
and remains reversible; it does not mutate issue status, assignment, or
visibility.
- The UI policy defaults to the existing open behavior, while allowlist
and disabled modes can reduce agent access.
- This PR intentionally builds on #9654 and #9658 and contains no new
migration number or modification to an already-applied migration.

DottaandPaperclip 52aea90263 feat: organize skills with nested folders and My Skills (#9633)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source control plane people use to organize
and govern AI-agent companies
> - Company skills are durable resources that users browse, import,
assign, and maintain over time
> - A flat skill list plus tags does not provide a stable location or
hierarchy for personal, company, project-imported, and bundled skills
> - Folder paths need to be canonical, company-scoped, safe to move, and
preserved across re-imports without changing skill IDs
> - The `/skills` UI also needs traversal, breadcrumbs, move/create
flows, and a dedicated My Skills namespace that work on desktop and
mobile
> - This pull request adds the folder data model and APIs, reserved-root
lifecycle, project import behavior, and the folder-first skills
experience
> - The benefit is a predictable filesystem-like organization model
while tags remain available for cross-cutting classification

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #9619 — the reviewed folder foundation was intentionally closed and
folded into this combined feature PR.
Refs #9026 — earlier flat-folder attempt superseded by this integrated
implementation.
Refs #3281 — related skill organization proposal; this PR uses canonical
persisted folders rather than deriving groups from skill keys, and does
not add hidden-skill behavior.

**Feature request**

- **Problem:** Skills currently lack a canonical hierarchical location,
making personal skills, project imports, bundled skills, and
company-authored skills difficult to traverse and manage at scale.
- **Proposed behavior:** Add nested company-scoped folders with stable
paths, reserved My/Projects/Bundled roots, subtree queries, safe
move/create operations, and a folder-first `/skills` library UI.
- **Import behavior:** New project scans file skills under
`projects/<project-slug>`; later imports update content without
overriding a user-selected folder.
- **Alternatives considered:** Tags alone remain useful for
cross-cutting classification, but they do not provide canonical
location, nesting, reserved namespaces, or stable import placement.
- **Roadmap alignment:** Extends the completed Skills Manager and
Scheduled Routines capabilities without duplicating an active roadmap
item.

## What Changed

- Adds `folders` persistence for routine and skill folders, nested
canonical paths, parent/slug/system-key fields, migration backfills, and
reapply-safe migrations `0174`–`0175` after current master migrations.
- Adds company-scoped folder CRUD, cycle/depth/namespace validation,
reserved My/Projects/Bundled lifecycle, item moves, subtree filtering,
and folder paths on skill results.
- Preserves project-import placement: first import files into the
project folder, while re-import keeps user-owned placement and stable
skill IDs.
- Adds the `/skills` folder tree rail, tags facet, breadcrumbs,
subfolder browser, move/new-folder dialog, canonical detail location,
inline tag editing, and folder-aware Studio creation.
- Keeps bundled skills read-only even when their source metadata is
incomplete by detecting the reserved Bundled folder and hiding
selection/move actions.
- Extends routine folder UI and OpenAPI coverage, and adds regression
tests across migrations, services, routes, tree helpers, pages, and
Studio creation.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/db/src/nested-skill-folders-migration.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/folders-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/folders-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-skills-service.test.ts

ui/src/pages/SkillStudio.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/company-skill-routes.test.ts ui/src/lib/skill-create.test.ts`
— 13 files, 192 tests passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/pages/CompanySkills.test.tsx
ui/src/components/folders/SkillFolderTree.test.tsx` — 2 files, 20 tests
passed after preserving the existing PR's bundled-skill fixes.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` — passed for all workspace packages.
- `pnpm test:run` — passed in an isolated CI-like environment with
inherited Paperclip runtime identity and static AWS credential variables
removed.
- `pnpm build` — production build passed for all workspace packages.
- Greptile iteration 2 — 5/5 confidence with zero unresolved threads on
commit `ff2d67aa71`.
- Latest-head GitHub checks — all success, neutral, or skipped; PR is
mergeable with a clean merge state.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — reports nine existing `#9627` comment false
positives already present on `master`; this PR introduces no new token
violation.

## Risks

- **Migration/backfill:** `0174` creates the foundation and `0175` adds
nested/reserved semantics. Both are ordered after current master
migration `0173`, are covered by numbering/safety checks, and are
designed to be reapply-safe.
- **Reserved namespaces:** My, Projects, and Bundled roots are
service-managed. Regression coverage prevents namespace squatting,
cross-company folder use, bundled writes, cycles, and excessive depth.
- **Behavioral change:** Project scans choose a project folder only on
initial creation; existing skills deliberately retain their current
folder during refresh.
- **UI scope:** The folder rail applies to the Installed library;
Catalog retains the discovery-oriented category sidebar.

DottaandPaperclip bd7c0d5f83 fix(issues): deduplicate repeated creates (#9650)
## Thinking Path

> Paperclip already treats issue creation as a company-scoped mutation,
but retries and parallel agent heartbeats can submit the same create
more than once. Client instructions cannot provide at-most-once behavior
under concurrency, so the guard belongs in the server transaction. This
change adds an explicit company-scoped idempotency contract, a
conservative fallback for recent open same-parent titles, and run
attribution for auditability. Advisory transaction locks serialize
competing requests before lookup/insert, avoiding the race that affected
the prior attempt.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Fixes #6529.

This is a clean replacement for #6936, which was closed because it mixed
unrelated changes and its check-then-insert implementation was not
concurrency-safe. Unlike that attempt, this PR is scoped to eight files,
uses a dedicated idempotency-key table, and serializes duplicate
candidates inside the create transaction.

## What Changed

- Accept optional `idempotencyKey` and `allowDuplicate` fields on issue
creation.
- Replay the existing issue with HTTP 200 and deduplication metadata for
a repeated company/key pair.
- Deduplicate recent open issues with the same company, parent, and
normalized title for 48 hours unless `allowDuplicate: true` is supplied.
- Persist idempotency mappings in a company-scoped table and serialize
competing creates with transaction advisory locks.
- Populate `originRunId` from `X-Paperclip-Run-Id` for agent/manual
creates when the body does not provide an origin run.
- Add route integration coverage for key replay, title fallback, bypass,
closed/old recreation, company scoping, and run attribution.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issue-create-deduplication-routes.test.ts` — 7
tests passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db typecheck` — passed, including
migration numbering and safety checks.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` — passed.
- `git diff --check origin/master...HEAD` — passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issue-assigned-backlog-contract-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-create-deduplication-routes.test.ts` — 10
tests passed after the service-contract compatibility fix.

## Risks

- The title fallback intentionally treats normalized same-parent titles
as duplicates for 48 hours; callers creating intentionally repeated
titles must send `allowDuplicate: true`.
- Advisory locks use hashed duplicate keys, so an extremely unlikely
hash collision can serialize unrelated creates but cannot merge their
lookup results.
- Deleting an issue cascades its idempotency mapping, allowing the same
key to create a replacement later.

## Model Used

- OpenAI `gpt-5.6-sol`, high reasoning effort, Codex CLI with
repository, shell, GitHub CLI, and Paperclip API tool access.

DottaandPaperclip ea0e899905 fix(search): honor extract match limits + harden pr-gardening candidate discovery (#9652)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The `/pr-gardening` skill drives a bundled agent that scans a
company's issues for those linked to open GitHub PRs, then reports on
their state; it relies on the server's company-search **extract**
endpoint to pull PR references out of issue bodies
> - Two gaps surfaced during end-to-end QA of the gardening workflow:
the extract service silently ignored a per-issue match cap, so callers
could not bound how many matches came back per issue, and the skill's
candidate-discovery scripts fell over on large repos and on issues that
referenced deleted PRs
> - Left unaddressed, the gardener either truncated its scan
unpredictably or aborted outright, so it could not reliably enumerate PR
candidates
> - This pull request honors an explicit `matchesPerIssue` limit in the
extract search API and hardens the skill's candidate discovery against
missing/unavailable PRs and oversized `gh` output
> - The benefit is a PR-gardening workflow that scans deterministically
and finishes cleanly on real-world companies

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No pre-existing public GitHub issue — describing the bug in-PR following
the bug report template (`.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/bug_report.yml`).

### What happened?

The company-search extract endpoint accepted a per-issue match limit but
did not apply it, returning matches capped only by the old hardcoded
constant regardless of the caller's request. Separately, the
`/pr-gardening` skill's candidate-discovery scripts crashed when a
scanned issue referenced a deleted PR (GitHub `Not Found (HTTP 404)` /
GraphQL `Could not resolve to a PullRequest`) and could exceed the
default `gh` output buffer on large result sets, aborting the whole
scan.

### Expected behavior

The extract API bounds matches per issue when a caller passes
`matchesPerIssue` (default 20, max 200), and omitting it preserves the
previous default. The gardening scripts skip PRs that are
deleted/unavailable and tolerate large `gh` responses without aborting
the scan.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Call the company-search extract endpoint with a `matchesPerIssue`
value against an issue containing many PR references — previously the
value was ignored.
2. Run the pr-gardening candidate scan against a company whose issues
reference a since-deleted PR — previously the scan threw instead of
skipping that PR.

### Paperclip version or commit

`master` at the base of this PR (branch cut from current
`origin/master`).

### Deployment mode

Local Paperclip instance / self-hosted.

## What Changed

- **Extract search honors `matchesPerIssue`**: added the
`matchesPerIssue` field to the shared search validator/types and applied
the cap in `company-search-extract` so results are bounded per issue
(`packages/shared`, `server/src/services/company-search-extract.ts`,
`doc/SPEC-implementation.md`).
- **Hardened pr-gardening candidate discovery**: `find-candidates.mjs` /
`lib.mjs` now request `matchesPerIssue=200`, treat missing/unavailable
PRs (deleted PR → `isMissingPullRequestError` / `unavailable`) as skips
instead of fatal errors, and raise the `gh` `maxBuffer` to 50 MB for
large repos.
- **Tests**: expanded `company-search-extract-{routes,service}.test.ts`
for the new limit and added coverage in `pr-gardening.test.mjs`.

## Verification

Re-run on a fresh worktree cherry-picked onto current `master`:

- `node --test
.agents/skills/pr-gardening/scripts/pr-gardening.test.mjs` → 8/8 pass
- `pnpm vitest run
server/src/__tests__/company-search-extract-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-search-extract-service.test.ts` → 10/10
pass

## Risks

Low risk. `matchesPerIssue` is optional and backward-compatible
(omitting it preserves prior behavior). The skill changes only add
skip/tolerance paths and a larger buffer; no schema or migration
changes.

## Model Used

Claude — Opus 4.8 (`claude-opus-4-8`), extended thinking, tool use /
code execution via the Claude Agent SDK.

DottaandPaperclip ae77908618 feat(search): add bulk extract endpoint (#9507)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source control plane people use to coordinate
AI-agent companies
> - Agents and operators need company-scoped search to discover relevant
issue history safely
> - The interactive search endpoint intentionally returns compact
excerpts and low pagination caps for UI use
> - Automation that inventories repeated references, such as
pull-request URLs, needs exhaustive distinct matches without loading
full issue objects into an LLM context
> - Client-provided regular expressions would create an unsafe and
expensive query surface, so extraction must remain literal with
server-owned expansion modes
> - This pull request adds a bounded agent-oriented extraction endpoint
with explicit truncation
> - The benefit is deterministic, compact bulk discovery across issues,
comments, and documents while preserving company authorization and rate
limits

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

### Subsystem affected

`server/` REST API and `packages/shared/` contracts.

### Problem or motivation

The existing interactive company search caps issue pagination and
snippets, so automation cannot reliably enumerate every distinct literal
or pull-request URL across issue descriptions, comments, and linked
documents without fetching large full issue payloads.

### Proposed solution

Add `GET /api/companies/:companyId/search/extract` with escaped literal
matching, optional server-owned URL token expansion,
issue/comment/document scopes, status/date filters, higher issue-level
pagination caps, compact source references, and explicit
pagination/match truncation flags.

### Alternatives considered

Reusing `GET /issues?q=` would return unnecessarily large issue objects;
increasing interactive-search snippet limits would make the UI API
heavier; accepting arbitrary client regex would expose avoidable
database cost and ReDoS risk.

### Roadmap alignment

`ROADMAP.md` does not currently list a conflicting company-search or
bulk-extraction initiative. GitHub searches found no directly
duplicative open issue or pull request.

## What Changed

- Added shared query validation and response contracts for literal and
URL extraction.
- Added a company-scoped extraction service that pages issues, gathers
matching issue/comment/document sources, expands URL tokens,
deduplicates values, and reports truncation explicitly.
- Added the authenticated route using the existing company-search
authorization decision and rate limiter.
- Added targeted Vitest coverage for URL extraction, multi-source
dedupe, date/status filters, match caps, cross-company denial, and rate
limiting.
- Documented the extraction surface in the implementation specification.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/company-search-extract-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-search-extract-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-search-rate-limit-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-search-service.test.ts` — 30 tests passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` — passed.
- `git diff --check` — passed.

## Risks

- Bulk substring search can scan large text columns. The endpoint
mitigates this with a minimum literal length, bounded issue pagination,
a 20-distinct-match cap per issue, explicit truncation, existing
company-search rate limiting, and no client-provided regex.
- URL expansion uses a fixed server-owned pattern plus an escaped
literal. A security review is requested as part of PR review to confirm
the pattern and abuse controls.
- No database migration or existing API response shape changes are
included.

3ae2c30f2f feat(skills): import skills from projects (#9620)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source control plane people use to manage
AI-agent companies.
> - Company skills make reusable agent behavior discoverable and
editable from one place.
> - Projects already contain skill directories, but operators had to
import each skill path manually.
> - Copying those skills would break the desired write-through workflow
between Skill Studio and the source project.
> - The server therefore needs a safe preview/select/import contract
that only accepts rediscovered, workspace-contained candidates.
> - The UI needs a guided project picker that explains reference
semantics, handles conflicts, and remains usable on mobile.
> - This pull request adds that end-to-end project skill import flow
with authorization, tenant-scope, traversal, and symlink regression
coverage.
> - The benefit is faster bulk onboarding while keeping project files as
the single source of truth.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Feature request**

**Problem:** Importing several skills already stored in a Paperclip
project requires operators to discover and submit each local path
individually. This is slow, hides which well-known directories were
searched, and makes conflict/already-imported states difficult to
evaluate before mutation.

**Proposed solution:** Add an “Import skills from project” flow that
previews skills from well-known directories, lets operators selectively
import eligible candidates, and stores local-path references so Skill
Studio edits write through to the project files.

**Alternatives considered:** Copying files into company-managed skill
storage was rejected because it creates divergent copies. Trusting
client-supplied paths was rejected because imports must be constrained
to server-rediscovered, workspace-contained candidates.

**Additional context:** GitHub duplicate search found no existing issue
or PR for this exact workflow. Refs #3799 for related skill-import
inventory behavior; this PR does not claim to close that issue.

## What Changed

- Extend `scan-projects` with backward-compatible preview and
selective-import modes, typed validation, candidate statuses, and
OpenAPI coverage.
- Discover project skills under `skills`, `.agents/skills`,
`.claude/skills`, `.codex/skills`, `.cursor/skills`, `.opencode/skills`,
and `.gemini/skills`.
- Re-discover selections server-side, enforce company/project/workspace
scope, and reject traversal or symlink escapes before creating
`local_path` references.
- Add the Skills-page menu entry and responsive project import dialog
with project selection, grouped candidates, select all/deselect all,
conflicts, empty/error/403 states, and import results.
- Add route, service, and component regressions for preview
authorization, cross-tenant selections, traversal/symlink safety,
selection counts, grouping, and result semantics.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/company-skills-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-skills-routes.test.ts
ui/src/pages/skills/ImportSkillsFromProjectDialog.test.tsx` — 3 files,
81 tests passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — all token gates clean.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` — passed.
- Security review passed after adding tenant-scope and
unauthorized-preview regressions; UX re-review approved desktop/mobile
surfaces; QA passed all seven acceptance areas including write-through
editing, deduplication, conflicts, empty state, and permission denial.

## Risks

- Files remain referenced in project workspaces, so moving or deleting a
source directory can make an imported skill unavailable; the UI
explicitly communicates the reference behavior.
- New well-known directory scans may discover more candidates than older
versions, but preview mode prevents mutation until the operator confirms
a selection.
- The endpoint remains backward compatible: omitting `mode` preserves
the prior full-import behavior.
- No schema migration or telemetry event changes.

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

- Anthropic Claude Opus 4.8 with tool use/code execution assisted with
the UI implementation and UX polish. OpenAI Codex CLI with tool use/code
execution assisted with server implementation, security fixes,
regression coverage, integration, and PR preparation; the runtime did
not expose Codex's exact backing model ID or context-window size.

89ce36d7af feat(skills): open-by-default company skill policy and core UX (#9564)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip uses company skills to make agent capabilities reusable
across an organization.
> - Skill operations currently mix capability availability with
permission checks, which creates avoidable setup friction and
inconsistent denial handling.
> - The policy contract needs to remain open by default while allowing
company-scoped restrictions for governed deployments.
> - Core owns the canonical policy actions, persistence, evaluation, API
behavior, safe import boundaries, and generic denial/read-only UI.
> - Enterprise policy-editor implementation belongs in the separate
`paperclip-ee` repository and is intentionally excluded from this PR.

### Problem or motivation

Company skill operations can encounter permission dead ends even when no
explicit restriction has been configured, and import-source
classification can drift between policy evaluation and execution.

### Proposed solution

Define eight canonical skill policy actions, default all actions to
allowed, persist company-scoped restrictions, expose policy evaluation
APIs, normalize import sources at the boundary, and update Skill Studio
to present actionable restriction states without embedding Enterprise
Edition implementation in the core repository.

### Alternatives considered

Keeping capability checks distributed across routes and UI surfaces was
rejected because it duplicates policy logic and makes denial behavior
inconsistent. Shipping the Enterprise policy editor in this repository
was rejected because `paperclip-ee` is a separate repository and must
receive its own PR.

### Roadmap alignment

Extends the completed **Skills Manager** roadmap area by adding coherent
governance and removing workflow dead ends.

### Additional context

The core API contract remains suitable for a separate Enterprise Edition
editor, but this PR contains no `paperclip-ee` package or EE-specific UI
integration code.

## What Changed

- Added the company skill policy contract to product and implementation
documentation, including the open-by-default rule, eight canonical
actions, decision shape, and core/EE ownership boundary.
- Added the company-scoped policy schema, migration `0170`, shared
validators, policy service, REST routes, OpenAPI coverage, and focused
server tests.
- Hardened import policy enforcement by normalizing import sources and
keeping source classification consistent between policy evaluation and
execution.
- Updated core Skill Studio behavior to remove generic permission dead
ends and show actionable policy/platform denial states only when an
operation is actually denied.
- Removed the `plugin-paperclip-ee` package, Docker wiring, EE
discovery/deep-link helpers, and EE-specific UI tests/stories from this
PR so that implementation can be submitted separately to the EE
repository.
- Preserved open-by-default behavior when no explicit company
restriction exists.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/components/skill-studio/SkillPolicySurfaces.test.tsx
src/lib/skill-policy-denial.test.ts` — 20/20 passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec tsc --noEmit` — passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/worktree-config.test.ts` — 12/12 passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — passed with all gates clean.
- `git diff --check` — passed.
- `git diff --name-only origin/master | rg
'paperclip-ee|ee-skill-policy'` — no matches.

## Risks

- Migration `0170` introduces company policy persistence; rollout
depends on the migration applying before policy routes are exercised.
- Open-by-default is an intentional behavioral policy: deployments
expecting implicit denials must configure explicit restrictions.
- Import normalization is security-sensitive and should retain focused
review.
- The separate EE editor must stay contract-compatible with the core
policy API as policy actions evolve.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex CLI, runtime model identifier and context-window size not
exposed by this execution environment; reasoning, repository tool use,
shell execution, and code review capabilities enabled.

Jannes StubbemannandClaude Fable 5 543de323f6 fix(shared): tolerate empty-string user name in profile/session parse (#8986)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Humans sign in through the auth layer; every authenticated request
parses the session/user profile with `currentUserProfileSchema` in
`packages/shared`
> - The schema requires `name` to be `null` or a non-empty string, but
some identity providers hand back `name: ""` for users who never set a
display name
> - For those users the session payload fails validation on every
request, so the app treats them as unauthenticated and bounces them to
`/auth` in a loop — they can never get in
> - This pull request preprocesses empty/whitespace-only names to `null`
before validation, so the existing `min(1).max(120).nullable()` rule
still holds for real names
> - Review found the sibling `email` field has the same failure mode
(the DB `auth` schema declares `email` as `notNull`, so a provider that
supplies no email stores `""`, which `z.string().email()` rejects); the
same preprocess is applied there
> - The benefit is that users whose provider reports an empty name (or
email) can sign in normally instead of being locked out, with no change
in behavior for anyone else

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No existing issue; described in-PR following the bug report template:

**What happened?**

Users whose auth provider returns `name: ""` (empty string) in the
profile payload fail `currentUserProfileSchema` / `authSessionSchema`
parsing (`name: z.string().min(1)...`). The parse failure makes the
session look invalid and the UI redirects to `/auth` on every attempt —
an endless sign-in loop. The `email` field has the same failure mode
(`z.string().email()` rejects `""`).

**Expected behavior:**

An empty display name (or email) should be treated the same as a missing
one (`null`); the user should be signed in normally.

**Steps to reproduce:**

Sign in with an account whose upstream identity record has an
empty-string name (or set a user's `name` column to `''` directly), then
load the app: session parse fails and you are bounced back to `/auth`.

**Adapter(s) involved:**

Not adapter-specific (core bug).

**Deployment mode / version:**

Any; reproduces on current `master`.

## What Changed

- `packages/shared/src/validators/access.ts`:
`currentUserProfileSchema.name` now runs through `z.preprocess` that
coerces empty or whitespace-only strings to `null` before the existing
`z.string().min(1).max(120).nullable()` validation.
- `packages/shared/src/validators/access.ts`: the same preprocess is
applied to `email` (review follow-up): `users.email` is `notNull` in the
DB schema, so a provider without an email stores `""`, which
`z.string().email()` rejects — the identical lockout loop.
Empty/whitespace-only emails now coerce to `null` (the field was already
nullable); malformed non-empty emails are still rejected.
- `packages/shared/src/validators/access.test.ts` (new): covers
empty-string → `null`, whitespace-only → `null`, real values preserved,
`null` preserved, and malformed non-empty email still rejected — for
both `name` and `email`, and the same cases through `authSessionSchema`.

## Verification

- `vitest run src/validators/access.test.ts` in `packages/shared` — 13
tests pass.
- `tsc --noEmit -p packages/shared` passes.
- Manual: parse `{ id, email: "", name: "", image: null }` with
`currentUserProfileSchema` — succeeds with `name: null` and `email:
null` instead of failing validation.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change only widens accepted input (empty/whitespace
string → `null` for `name` and `email`); every previously valid payload
parses identically. `updateCurrentUserProfileSchema` (user-initiated
rename) is untouched and still rejects empty names.

## Model Used

Claude Fable 5 (Anthropic, `claude-fable-5`, agentic coding harness via
Claude Code, extended reasoning enabled). Original fix drafted with
Claude Sonnet 4.6.

DottaandPaperclip 1de0a3bb1e feat(mcp) [split 2/8]: add governed access contracts (#9557)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Governed MCP access spans contracts, runtime enforcement, adapters,
UI surfaces, and operator verification
> - The parity reference PR #9534 is too large for effective automated
or human review
> - The feature therefore needs a linear stack whose individual diffs
stay below the 100-file review limit
> - This pull request is split 2/8 and focuses on database schema and
shared governance contracts
> - The benefit is a standalone, testable review boundary while
preserving byte-for-byte parity at the top of the stack

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- Related parity reference: #9534
- Problem: The governed access model needs additive persistence and
synchronized shared types before server enforcement can compile.
- Proposed solution: Adds migrations 0148–0169, tool-access and Smoke
Lab schema, shared types/validators/gallery helpers, and the minimal
compile-required contract consumers identified by boundary testing.
- Alternatives considered: keeping #9534 as one 403-file review, or
rewriting the feature to manufacture seams; both were rejected in favor
of path extraction plus compile-driven boundary moves.
- Roadmap alignment: this advances the existing governed MCP/tool-access
work already represented by #9534; it does not introduce a separate
roadmap initiative.
- Stack position: base branch is `pap10341-split/01-demo-servers`.
- Merge policy: merge bottom-up, in order, only after the complete
eight-PR stack has been reviewed and the top-of-stack parity gate
remains empty.
- Requested review: QA for migrations/validators; Greptile on every PR.

## What Changed

- Adds migrations 0148–0169, tool-access and Smoke Lab schema, shared
types/validators/gallery helpers, and the minimal compile-required
contract consumers identified by boundary testing.
- Keeps this PR below 100 changed files and independently typecheckable.
- Preserves the final tree from #9534 when combined with the other seven
stack levels.

## Verification

- `pnpm typecheck` — passed, including migration numbering and safety
checks
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db test` — passed
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared test` — passed

## Risks

- Migration or contract mistakes could affect every upper layer; all
migrations are additive/idempotent and compile consumers are included in
this boundary.
- Stack risk: merging out of order can expose incomplete layers;
mitigate by following the documented bottom-up merge policy.
- Parity risk: later edits to an intermediate branch can drift from
#9534; mitigate by re-running the empty top-of-stack diff before merge.

- OpenAI Codex, exact model ID `gpt-5.4`; runtime-managed context
window; medium reasoning with repository, shell, Git, GitHub CLI, and

DottaandPaperclip efcce9cc8e fix(adapters): record unpriced CLI usage (#9505)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source control plane people use to manage
AI-agent companies
> - Budgets and spend telemetry are control-plane safety features, not
just reporting
> - Local Codex and Claude adapters can execute through either ACP or
their native CLI engines
> - The ACP lane records usage and reported cost, but CLI JSON output
often reports tokens without a price
> - The CLI lane was either losing per-run usage semantics or coercing
missing cost to zero, making real usage indistinguishable from a
genuinely free run
> - This pull request preserves CLI usage as per-run totals and records
token-bearing runs without a reported price as explicitly unpriced
ledger events
> - The benefit is accurate usage accounting and a visible pricing gap
instead of silently misleading zero-cost telemetry

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #9471
Refs #9230

**Bug description**

A `codex_local` run using the CLI engine can emit a final
`turn.completed` event with millions of input tokens and tens of
thousands of output tokens while the agent's spend ledger remains
indistinguishable from a true zero-usage, zero-cost run. Claude CLI
output has the same missing-price edge case.

**Expected behavior**

Token-bearing CLI runs should persist their usage. If the adapter
reports a price, the ledger should record it as reported; if the CLI
reports usage but no price, the ledger should explicitly mark the event
as unpriced rather than silently treating missing price data as a
reported `$0` cost.

**Reproduction shape**

1. Configure `codex_local` with `engine: cli`.
2. Run a task that produces a `turn.completed` usage payload.
3. Observe token usage in the run stream.
4. Before this change, missing price data is represented as ordinary
zero-cost spend and the CLI usage basis is not consistently propagated.

## What Changed

- Mark Codex and Claude native CLI usage totals as `per_run` and
propagate that basis through success and failure results.
- Stop coercing missing Claude CLI cost to `0`.
- Add `cost_status` to cost events with `reported` and `unpriced`
values, including an idempotent migration and shared validation/types.
- Persist token-bearing runs without a reported price as `unpriced`
ledger events while retaining zero cents until an authoritative price
exists.
- Add parser, execute-path, heartbeat-accounting, and cost-service
regression coverage for both local CLI adapters.
- Document the cost-status invariant and CLI accounting behavior.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/adapters/codex-local/src/server/parse.test.ts
packages/adapters/claude-local/src/server/parse.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/codex-local-execute.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/claude-local-execute.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-cost-accounting.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/costs-service.test.ts` — 6 files / 102 tests
passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db typecheck` — includes migration
numbering and safety checks.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-codex-local typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-claude-local typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`

## Risks

- Existing cost rows default to `reported`, preserving current
interpretation; only new token-bearing events with absent cost are
marked `unpriced`.
- This change does not invent model pricing. Budget hard stops still
cannot charge an unknown amount, but operators and evals can now
distinguish missing pricing from a genuinely reported zero cost.
- Consumers that enumerate cost-event fields should tolerate the
additive `costStatus` field.

36ec79c196 feat: add attention queue and Decisions surface (#9380)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the control plane for autonomous AI companies, where
operators need a reliable way to find and act on work awaiting their
input.
> - The attention and issue-thread interaction subsystems expose those
decision points across server APIs and the board UI.
> - The previous navigation and interaction presentation left these
actions fragmented and did not offer a controlled rollout for the
Decisions surface.
> - This branch adds the attention feed, richer interaction cards,
grouping, dismiss/snooze behavior, and a gated Decisions sidebar entry.
> - It also keeps experimental settings and API contracts synchronized,
with an idempotent migration for the new dismissal state.
> - This pull request delivers the complete, tested attention/Decisions
experience as one reviewable unit.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- Adds an operator-focused attention queue and Decisions experience:
grouped decision cards, semantic interaction actions, dismiss/snooze
handling, resilient interaction states, and an experimental flag to
control the Decisions navigation entry.


## Feature Context

### Problem or Motivation

Operators currently have to hunt across approvals, interactions, failed
runs, and budget alerts to find decisions that need their action.

### Proposed Solution

Provide a gated Decisions attention queue that groups actionable items,
supports direct resolution, and preserves operator control through
dismiss and snooze actions.

### Alternatives Considered

Keep separate, source-specific views only; this leaves cross-cutting
operator decisions fragmented and harder to prioritize.

### Roadmap Alignment

This improves the V1 control-plane operator workflow by making pending
governed actions discoverable in one company-scoped surface.

## What Changed

- Added server attention-feed services, routes, interaction handling,
dismiss/snooze support, and an idempotent `0145` inbox-dismissal
migration.
- Added shared attention, inbox-dismissal, and experimental-settings
contracts.
- Added Decisions/attention UI, interaction-card states, sidebar
badge/navigation integration, grouping, keyboard support, and Storybook
coverage.
- Added tests for attention behavior, thread interactions, settings
normalization, dismissals, and API behavior.
- Removed generated screenshots from the final PR diff and rebased the
branch onto current `master`.

## Verification

- `pnpm check:token-gates` — passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/shared/src/issue-thread-interactions.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/attention-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/inbox-dismissals.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interactions-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interaction-routes.test.ts
ui/src/lib/attention.test.ts
ui/src/components/AttentionQueueRow.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueThreadInteractionCard.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/InstanceExperimentalSettings.test.tsx` — passed: 158 tests
across 9 focused files.
- GitHub Actions for `ad636f560`: build and typecheck/release-registry
have passed; remaining general-server and Greptile checks are in
progress.

## Risks

- Moderate: this is a cross-layer attention/interaction feature with a
new migration and navigation behavior.
- The `enableDecisions` experimental setting defaults to off, limiting
rollout impact.
- Existing dismissal data is backfilled to `dismiss`; the migration is
idempotent and uses guarded constraint creation.

Devin Foley 17dde9d3f2 fix(sandbox): keep custom-image snapshots applied to config tests, probes, and saves (#9385)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Sandbox environments can capture reusable custom images (provider
snapshots) so agents boot with pre-installed tools and CLI logins
> - The custom-image runtime fingerprint check included provider
secret-ref paths (e.g. the Daytona `apiKey`), while capture-time
fingerprinting excluded them, so any config carrying a credential never
matched its captured snapshot
> - As a result, agent config tests and environment probes silently
booted the provider base image instead of the snapshot, test sandboxes
were deleted before operators could inspect them, and any environment
save orphaned the snapshot without warning
> - The UI compounded the confusion by displaying an internal template
id that matches nothing in the provider dashboard
> - This pull request aligns runtime fingerprints with capture-time
exclusions, re-stamps fingerprints on saves that cannot affect the
snapshot (warning when they can), archives test/probe sandboxes instead
of deleting them, and surfaces the provider snapshot ref in the UI
> - The benefit is that custom images actually apply to config tests and
probes, survive unrelated config edits, and are debuggable against the
provider dashboard

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this; describing it in-PR per the bug
template. Related: Refs #9329 (saved-environment probe company context —
this branch carries an equivalent fix), Refs #8794 (introduced reusable
sandbox custom images).

**What happened?**

With a Daytona environment whose provider config stores the API key as a
secret reference and an active captured custom-image snapshot:

- Agent config tests and environment probes booted the provider base
image (`daytonaio/sandbox:0.8.0`) instead of the captured snapshot, so
CLI upgrades/logins baked into the snapshot were missing and the probe
reported "login required" and an outdated CLI.
- The environment card showed an internal template id (e.g.
`b5be03e1-ca5…`) that does not correspond to any snapshot name in the
provider dashboard, making the active image impossible to correlate.
- Test/probe sandboxes were deleted immediately after the run, so the
sandbox a test used could not be inspected afterwards.
- Saving the environment config (even fields unrelated to the image)
changed the stored fingerprint, silently detaching the snapshot with no
warning.

**Expected behavior**

Config tests and probes boot the captured snapshot when one is active;
the UI shows the provider-facing snapshot/template ref; test sandboxes
stay inspectable for a short window; unrelated config edits keep the
snapshot linked, and edits that genuinely invalidate it produce an
explicit warning.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Configure a sandbox environment on Daytona with the API key stored as
a company secret reference.
2. Capture a custom image snapshot from the environment page and mark it
active (e.g. after installing/logging into a CLI in the setup sandbox).
3. Run the agent config test or an environment probe: the sandbox boots
the base image, not the snapshot, and the sandbox is deleted immediately
after the test.
4. Save the environment config with an unrelated field change: the
snapshot silently stops applying.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`master` at the merge-base of this branch.

**Deployment mode**

Self-hosted local instance (macOS, pnpm dev server) with the Daytona
sandbox provider plugin.

## What Changed

- Runtime custom-image fingerprint checks now exclude provider
secret-ref paths, matching capture-time exclusions, so configs carrying
credentials match their captured snapshots
(`environment-custom-image-runtime.ts`).
- Agent config tests and saved-environment probes force fresh,
non-reused sandboxes and pass company context so lease-backed probes can
resolve company secrets and boot the real snapshot
(`environment-probe.ts`, `routes/agents.ts`, `routes/environments.ts`).
- Test/probe sandboxes are released by archiving (stop + 60-minute
provider-side auto-delete) instead of immediate deletion, so operators
can inspect the exact sandbox a test used (Daytona plugin).
- On environment PATCH save, changes that cannot affect the captured
snapshot re-stamp the template's source fingerprint so the snapshot
stays linked; boot-source or provider-identity changes (new manifest
field `templateIdentityPaths`) mark the template detached and the save
response reports it (`environment-custom-images.ts`, shared plugin
types/validators).
- The custom-image overview exposes `activeTemplateMatchesConfig`; the
environments UI shows the provider snapshot/template ref (internal id
moved to a tooltip), warns via toast when a save detaches the snapshot,
and shows a persistent "Not in use" warning when the active template no
longer matches the saved config (`CompanyEnvironments.tsx`,
`api/environments.ts`).

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run
server/src/__tests__/environment-custom-images-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-probe.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/agent-test-environment-routes.test.ts` — server
coverage for fingerprint exclusions, re-stamp/detach on save, probe
company context, and fresh-sandbox test behavior.
- `pnpm vitest run
packages/plugins/sandbox-providers/daytona/src/plugin.test.ts` —
archive-on-release and snapshot ref handling.
- `pnpm vitest run ui/src/pages/CompanyEnvironments.test.tsx` — snapshot
ref display, detach toast, and "Not in use" warning.
- Manually verified end-to-end on a live self-hosted instance against
real Daytona: config test boots the captured snapshot (CLI login and
version persist), the test sandbox remains visible in the provider
dashboard as archived, and saving unrelated fields keeps the snapshot
applied.

## Risks

- Fingerprint exclusion widening: a provider credential rotation alone
no longer detaches a captured snapshot; that is the intended behavior
(the snapshot content does not depend on the credential), and
provider-identity fields (e.g. Daytona `apiUrl`) still detach via
`templateIdentityPaths`.
- Archived test sandboxes consume provider-side resources for up to
their auto-delete window instead of being freed immediately; bounded (60
minutes) and only for test/probe sandboxes.
- New optional manifest field `templateIdentityPaths` is
backward-compatible; providers that omit it keep current matching
behavior.

70ce005bef Ensure worktree execution starts only after activation (#9374)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open-source control plane people use to manage AI
agents and their work.
> - Its scheduler, routines, and heartbeat services decide when agents
automatically begin work.
> - Experimental per-worktree execution is useful for isolated
development, but enabling it previously allowed automatic services to
consider an existing backlog.
> - A worktree activation must therefore create a durable eligibility
boundary rather than merely toggle execution on.
> - This pull request records an activation cutoff and applies it
consistently to automatic routine and heartbeat dispatch.
> - The result is that an enabled worktree executes only work created
after its own activation, while non-worktree behavior remains unchanged.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem type:** Bug / safety regression

**Summary:** Enabling experimental run execution in an existing worktree
could start automatic scheduler, routine, watchdog, and heartbeat
activity for work created before that worktree was explicitly armed.

**Expected behavior:** A worktree that has execution enabled only
considers automatically dispatched work created on or after its
activation timestamp. Ambiguous activation state fails closed.
Non-worktree instances keep their existing behavior.

**Related public work:** Refs #8275 (runtime worktree policy gating);
this PR adds an activation-time boundary for automatic execution rather
than changing the general runtime policy.

## What Changed

- Persist a worktree execution activation timestamp and originating
instance ID; stamp them only when the experimental toggle changes from
disabled to enabled.
- Resolve activation state fail-closed when the cutoff is missing,
invalid, disabled, or belongs to another instance.
- Gate automatic routine scheduling, webhooks, watchdog activity, and
heartbeat selection at the activation cutoff; manual runs remain
available.
- Share the canonical worktree truthy-environment helper across routine
dispatch and agent inbox filtering.
- Add cutoff and truthy-runtime regression coverage, plus
experimental-settings UI states that explain armed and suppressed
execution.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/routines-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-service.test.ts` — passes: 2
files, 60 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` — passes.
- Existing CI completed successfully before the follow-up review fixes;
this branch was rebased onto the latest `origin/master` before
retesting.

## Risks

- **Behavioral:** Automatic worktree execution is intentionally more
restrictive; pre-existing work is suppressed until newly created after
activation.
- **Operational:** A malformed or cross-instance activation record fails
closed, requiring an operator to disable and re-enable the experimental
toggle on the intended worktree.
- **Compatibility:** The worktree environment now accepts all canonical
truthy values (`1`, `true`, `yes`, and `on`) consistently; non-worktree
instances are unaffected.
- **Branch metadata:** This existing execution-workspace branch predates
the current naming rule and cannot be renamed under this task's
workspace contract; the code and PR title do not include internal ticket
references.

> `ROADMAP.md` was checked; this targeted execution-safety fix does not
duplicate planned core work.

## Model Used

- Anthropic Claude Code — assisted with the original implementation;
exact model identifier and context window were not recorded in the
repository metadata.
- OpenAI Codex CLI — assisted with PR preparation and review fixes;
exact model identifier and context window are not exposed in this
execution environment. Used with terminal tooling, code editing, and
targeted test execution.

DottaandPaperclip cc81eefb60 Make plan-approval continuations durable after failed wakes (#9331)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents often work from reviewed plans that are approved through
issue-thread interactions.
> - Accepting a plan is not just a UI decision; it must reliably resume
the assignee so approved work continues.
> - A failed continuation wake could leave an approved plan stranded in
review with no durable retry or visible recovery path.
> - This pull request makes approved plan continuations retryable,
recoverable, and visible when resume fails.
> - The benefit is that operators can trust plan approval to either
resume the agent or produce an explicit actionable failure instead of
silent limbo.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists. Inline bug report follows the repository
bug template.

### Pre-submission checklist

- [x] I have searched existing open and closed issues and this is not a
duplicate.
- [x] I am on the latest released version of Paperclip or can reproduce
on `master`.
- [x] I have confirmed the error originates in Paperclip itself, not in
my agent adapter, API provider, or local configuration.

### What happened?

When a plan-confirmation interaction was accepted, the assignee
continuation wake could fail before useful agent execution. In that case
the issue could remain in review even though the plan had been approved,
because the failed wake was fire-and-forget and there was no durable
retry or recovery path for accepted continuations.

### Expected behavior

Accepted plan continuations should either wake the assignee
successfully, retry bounded infrastructure failures, recover dropped
wakes, or surface an explicit failure state that operators can act on.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Create an issue with an assignee and a plan confirmation that wakes
the assignee on accept.
2. Accept the confirmation.
3. Simulate a pre-flight continuation failure, such as process loss
before agent start or workspace validation failure.
4. Observe that the approved issue can remain in review without an
active assignee wake or visible retry/failure state.

### Paperclip version or commit

Reproducible on `master` before this PR's retry/recovery changes.

### Deployment mode

Local dev (`pnpm dev`) and server-side recovery paths.

### Installation method

Built from source (`pnpm install`, `pnpm dev`, test runner).

### Agent adapter(s) involved

Not adapter-specific; this is a core continuation/recovery bug. The
tests cover local-agent failure shapes without relying on a
provider-specific API.

### Database mode

Embedded Postgres test database for verification. The affected logic is
database-backed and applies to normal Postgres deployments as well.

### Access context

Board accepts the interaction; agent execution resumes through the
assignee wake path.

### Relevant logs or output

No sensitive logs are needed. The regression tests simulate the failed
wake and recovery states directly.

### Relevant config

No special config is required beyond an assignee with wake-on-demand
enabled.

### Additional context

This PR also prevents a stale workspace-validation payload from
quarantining another issue's active workspace and prevents unrelated
successful runs from masking a continuation that never resumed.

### Privacy checklist

- [x] I have reviewed all pasted output for PII, usernames, file paths,
API keys, tokens, and company names, and redacted where necessary.

## What Changed

- Added bounded infrastructure retries for failed accepted-interaction
continuation wakes.
- Extended stranded issue recovery so dropped accepted-plan continuation
wakes are requeued.
- Recorded and rendered explicit resume-failure state on accepted
confirmation cards.
- Added clean-workspace fallback for workspace-validation failures while
preventing cross-issue workspace quarantine.
- Tightened recovery so unrelated successful runs do not mask an
accepted continuation that never resumed.
- Added focused server/UI coverage for retry scheduling, recovery,
visible failure state, and interaction card rendering.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-retry-scheduling.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts` — 106 tests
passed.
- Earlier branch verification also covered the issue-thread interaction
card tests for the visible resume-failure UI.
- GitHub CI is green on the replacement PR head, and Greptile reports
5/5 with no blocking issues.

## Risks

- Medium behavioral risk: this changes recovery behavior for accepted
continuation interactions and workspace-validation retries.
- Mitigation: retries are bounded, scoped to same-company issue context,
and workspace quarantine now requires ownership by the issue being
retried.
- Existing stored confirmation results remain compatible because the new
resume-failure field is optional.

5c85ae64a0 Cases: experimental first-class case object (#9198)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The board currently uses issues for execution, but longer-lived
content work needs a separate object that can survive beyond a single
task thread.
> - The Cases subsystem adds an experimental, company-scoped record for
content artifacts and their supporting metadata.
> - The backend needs durable storage, API routes, revision history,
issue linkage, and company-boundary enforcement before the UI can depend
on Cases.
> - The UI needs an opt-in navigation surface, list/detail views,
reference chips, and issue-page context so operators can inspect Cases
without making them the default workflow.
> - The agent-facing skills need a contract for creating and updating
Cases so automated content workflows can dogfood the feature.
> - This pull request ships that experimental end-to-end path behind the
`enableCases` flag.
> - The benefit is a first-class place to collect content work,
references, attachments, revisions, and related execution threads
without polluting the core issue model.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this experimental feature.

Feature request fields:

### Problem

Content-oriented work such as release notes, announcements, docs, and
campaigns can span many execution issues, which makes the final artifact
hard to find and reason about after the execution thread moves on.

### Proposed solution

Add an experimental Cases object that is company-scoped, linked to
issues, queryable through the API, inspectable in the board UI, and
writable by agent workflows through documented conventions.

### Alternatives considered

Continue encoding content artifacts directly in issues or documents
only. That keeps the data model smaller, but it does not give operators
a stable artifact-centric view or a clean way to link related execution
history.

### Roadmap alignment

Checked `ROADMAP.md`; this PR does not duplicate an existing planned
core roadmap item.

## What Changed

- Added the `cases` data model, migration, schema exports, and
experimental `enableCases` instance setting.
- Added company-scoped Cases API routes for list/detail/update, issue
links, revisions, children, activity events, annotations, attachments,
and idempotent agent-oriented upserts.
- Scoped case and issue lookup helpers before access checks so
inaccessible cross-company identifiers resolve as not found rather than
leaking existence.
- Fixed case PATCH timestamp handling so non-status updates cannot
overwrite `completedAt` from a stale pre-transaction row snapshot.
- Moved Cases list type/status/project filters into the server request
before the server-side limit is applied, including multi-select filters
and no-project filtering.
- Added backend route coverage for creation, updates, idempotency, issue
linking, attribution, company-boundary enforcement, OpenAPI
registration, list filtering, timestamp patch behavior, and inaccessible
lookup regressions.
- Added the experimental Cases UI surface: sidebar entry, gated routes,
list filters/grouping, detail overview, activity, revisions, children,
attachments, and issue-page case rail.
- Added case reference rendering and company-prefixed case href
generation so case links resolve directly inside the active company
route.
- Added Paperclip skill documentation for agent workflows that create or
update Cases.
- Wired release-content skills to emit Cases for dogfooding.
- Rebased onto current `master` and renumbered the Cases migrations to
`0143`/`0144` after the latest upstream migration sequence.

## Verification

- Current PR head: `ecc13be0d`.
- Rebased on current `master` (`606aa4f266`) and pushed to the existing
PR branch.
- `git diff --check origin/master...HEAD` — passed before the first
update push; subsequent committed diffs were also checked with `git diff
--check` before commit.
- Guardrails checked: no `pnpm-lock.yaml` changes, no
`.github/workflows` changes, and changed-file count is below the
Greptile 100-file limit.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/cases-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/instance-settings-service.test.ts
src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts` — passed, 3 files / 26 tests
before review-fix commits.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/cases-routes.test.ts` — passed after each server-side
Greptile fix, latest 1 file / 15 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` — passed after the
timestamp and lookup fixes.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/pages/Cases.test.tsx src/pages/CaseDetail.test.tsx
src/pages/CompanySkills.test.tsx src/App.cases-routing.test.tsx` —
passed, 4 files / 30 tests before review-fix commits.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/pages/Cases.test.tsx` — passed after the list-filter fix, 1 file /
12 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` — passed after the
list-filter fix.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — passed after UI changes.
- Remote PR checks on head `ecc13be0d` are green: Paperclip CI, build,
typecheck, test matrix, e2e, Canary Dry Run, policy, commit review,
Superagent Security Scan, Socket, Snyk, and Greptile passed; Storybook
visual regression is skipped and security-review is neutral.
- Greptile Review: 5/5 confidence, zero unresolved Greptile threads.

## Risks

- Medium feature risk because this introduces a new experimental domain
object across database, server, shared contracts, skills, and UI.
- The feature is gated behind `enableCases`, which limits default
operator exposure while the model is exercised.
- Case links now prefer company-prefixed hrefs; the unprefixed redirect
remains for externally entered URLs.
- Cases list filtering now sends multi-select filters to the server
before limiting; the UI still applies the same local filters as a second
pass for ancestor/context rows.
- Migrations were renumbered on top of current master; the SQL uses
guarded `IF NOT EXISTS` / `ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS` patterns where
relevant for safer replay.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-5 Codex in the Paperclip local coding environment was used
for this PR curation, rebase verification, review-fix implementation,
push, and PR description update. The runtime exposes tool use and shell
execution; context-window size is not exposed by this Paperclip adapter.
Several implementation commits also include AI co-author trailers
recorded in git history.

606aa4f266 feat(search): filters, sorting, operators & command-palette parity (#9327)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Company search is the primary way operators find issues, comments,
documents, artifacts, agents, and projects across a busy company
> - Search previously supported only a bare text query: no way to narrow
by status/assignee/project/label/date, no sort control, no typed
operators, and weak relevance/snippets meant hunting through noise
> - As companies accumulate tens of thousands of items, unfiltered
single-sort search stops scaling for day-to-day operator workflows
> - This pull request adds a full filtering model (filter bar, chips,
mobile sheet, URL state), sort modes, typed query operators (`status:`,
`assignee:`, `type:`, …) with command-palette parity,
relevance/snippet/deep-link improvements, zero-results recovery, and the
supporting shared validators, backend service work, and DB indexes
> - The benefit is that operators can go from a vague query to the exact
item in a couple of keystrokes, on desktop and mobile, with shareable
filtered-search URLs

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No existing public GitHub issue; describing the underlying feature
request inline (per feature_request template):

- **Problem:** Company search accepted only a plain text query. Users
could not filter results by status, assignee, project, label, or
recency; could not change result ordering; and got no guidance when
filters emptied the result set.
- **Desired solution:** Structured search filters (UI controls + typed
query operators + URL parameters), selectable sort modes, better
relevance and snippets with exact deep links, and parity between the
search page and the command palette.
- **Alternatives considered:** Client-side filtering of unfiltered
results (does not scale past the fetch limit); a separate "advanced
search" page (splits the surface and duplicates state handling).

Related (not duplicate) PRs found while searching: #4848 (issue search
query planning), #8235 (search rate limiting).

## What Changed

- **Shared contract:** new search filter/sort/count/zero-results types
and validators in `packages/shared` (`validators/search.ts`, types
index).
- **Backend:** `server/src/services/company-search.ts` supports issue
filters, sort modes, per-filter option counts, snippets, artifact
visibility, and zero-results loosen suggestions; single-statement match
replaces per-scope scans and predicates are trigram-index compatible
(~3.7s → ~350ms on a live 14.8k-hit corpus).
- **DB:** migration `0142_company_search_sort_indexes.sql` adds the
supporting indexes.
- **Search page (`ui/src/pages/Search.tsx`):** filter bar, removable
chips, mobile filter sheet with result-count preview, sort menu, URL
round-tripping, zero-results recovery UI.
- **Query operators (`ui/src/lib/search-query-parser.ts`):** typed
operators parsed into filters, operator autocomplete, filter pills.
- **Command palette:** operator-aware parsing and full-search handoff.
- **Stale-operator fix (latest commit):** typed operator filters are no
longer folded into persistent URL-filter state, so deleting a token
(e.g. removing `status:blocked` from the input) actually removes the
filter from subsequent requests; filter-control edits materialize
control state and strip typed tokens so a removed chip cannot resurrect
from the input.

## Verification

- `cd ui && npx vitest run src/pages/Search.test.tsx` — 19 tests
including two new red→green regressions for the stale-operator paths
(both fail on the previous commit, pass now).
- `cd ui && npx vitest run src/components/CommandPalette.test.tsx` and
`cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/company-search-service.test.ts` — operator parity and
backend filter/sort/count coverage.
- `cd ui && npx tsc --noEmit` — clean.
- Manual: open `/search`, type `auth status:blocked`, confirm the status
filter applies; delete `status:blocked`, confirm results are unfiltered
again; drive the same filters from the filter bar/chips/mobile sheet and
confirm the URL round-trips (reload/back/forward preserves state).
- Full end-to-end QA pass (9/9 acceptance checks) against the wireframes
on desktop (1280px) and mobile (390px) with a live API and browser
automation.

## Risks

- Additive migration (indexes only, no data rewrites) — safe to roll
forward; index creation cost is paid once at migrate time.
- Search request shape gains optional parameters only; old clients keep
working.
- Behavioral shift: filter-control edits now strip typed operator tokens
from the query text (their values persist as filter state) — deliberate,
so removed filters stay removed.
- Ranking changes alter result ordering for existing queries; covered by
service tests and the QA pass.

f3ca4d24bc fix: repair dirty/foreign-branch execution worktrees (#9297)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Execution workspaces are the bridge between Paperclip's control
plane and a local agent's checked-out repository state.
> - When a workspace is restored after a failed or interrupted run, the
recorded branch can disagree with the branch currently checked out on
disk.
> - A clean branch mismatch can be reconciled safely, but a dirty
mismatch needs a lossless path that does not discard uncommitted agent
work.
> - This pull request adds a quarantine-and-restore path that saves
dirty work to a rescue branch, restores the recorded branch, and exposes
the repair from the board UI and run page.
> - The benefit is that operators can recover wedged execution
workspaces without losing work or moving another live branch
unexpectedly.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this workspace-recovery failure, so
this PR includes the bug report inline.

**What happened**

A git worktree-backed execution workspace could become wedged when
Paperclip expected one branch but found a different checked-out branch
with dirty tracked or untracked files. The existing safe repair path
refused the restore, leaving the source task blocked with no lossless
one-click recovery path.

**Expected behavior**

Paperclip should preserve dirty work before restoring the recorded
workspace branch. If another live workspace claims the checked-out
branch, or an attached runtime service is active, the repair should
refuse with clear operator-facing evidence instead of risking work loss
or file contention.

**Steps to reproduce**

Create a git worktree execution workspace whose persisted branch name
differs from the checked-out branch, add dirty tracked or untracked
files in that worktree, then trigger workspace validation or use the
branch reconcile endpoint. Before this change, the dirty mismatch
remained blocked because Paperclip had no quarantine restore mode.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Observed on the pre-fix workspace-recovery implementation. Verified on
this PR head after rebasing onto current `master`.

**Deployment mode**

Local trusted development/worktree deployments using git worktree
execution workspaces and optional workspace runtime services.

## What Changed

- Added dirty-worktree quarantine repair that creates a rescue branch,
commits dirty tracked and untracked files there, restores the recorded
branch, writes audit comments/activity, and preserves the live foreign
branch ref.
- Added `quarantine_restore` branch reconcile API support,
recovery-action resolution, source-task wake behavior, execution-review
preservation, claimant refusal, runtime-service refusal, and coverage
for the non-transactional git ordering.
- Added board UI controls for the repair action in the recovery card
plus a compact failed-run workspace recovery surface that uses the same
reconcile handlers.
- Hardened Greptile follow-up cases by best-effort restoring the
recorded branch after a mid-sequence rescue commit failure and by
refusing quarantine restore while attached runtime services are active.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/execution-workspaces-service.test.ts -t
"quarantine_restore"`
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts
-t "workspace dirty quarantine branch repair"`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-workspace-finalize-branch.test.ts -t
"repairs clean unrecorded branch drift|adopts unrecorded forward branch
drift"`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/workspace-runtime-routes-authz.test.ts`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- Earlier PR verification covered the route, service, heartbeat, UI
component, and run-page recovery surfaces; Cutter posted public preview
screenshots for the repair popover and run-page panel at
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/9297#issuecomment-4926934211.
- GitHub PR checks are green on
`dcac76b05f4cf6e1ee16544c2831d83c7857e475`.
- Greptile is 5/5 with zero annotations and no unresolved review threads
on `dcac76b05f4cf6e1ee16544c2831d83c7857e475`.

## Risks

- Moderate risk because the change intentionally runs git commands
against local worktrees; the implementation refuses dirty repair when
another claimant or active runtime service is detected and records
rescue refs for auditability.
- Compatibility / release-note callout for self-hosted operators:
existing instances that left `enableWorkspaceBranchReconcileForward`
unset now get automatic forward branch reconciliation during heartbeat
workspace recovery. Operators who want the previous advisory-only
behavior can set `experimental.enableWorkspaceBranchReconcileForward` to
`false`; dirty quarantine repair can likewise be disabled with
`experimental.enableWorkspaceDirtyQuarantineRepair: false`.
- If the git rescue succeeds but a later database write fails, the
worktree may already be restored while the recovery action remains open;
this ordering is documented in code because git side effects cannot
participate in the database transaction.
- UI risk is limited to the workspace recovery surfaces and covered by
component tests plus the existing Cutter visual preview.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex coding agent based on GPT-5, with repository tool use,
shell execution, and local test execution. Earlier preserved commits on
this branch also show Claude Code / Claude Opus 4.8 assistance in their

DottaandPaperclip 8b6a06ee25 [codex] Add built-in agents and Reflection Coach bundle (#9206)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Operators need first-party agent capabilities for repeatable company
work, not just manually created one-off agents.
> - Built-in agents need to behave like normal company-scoped agents
while preserving approval gates, permissions, budgets, and audit trails.
> - Reflection and coaching work also needs bundled instructions, skill
content, and a routine so the feature can be installed and reset
predictably.
> - The API, database, UI, portability, and tests all need to agree on
the built-in lifecycle from not provisioned through setup, approval,
ready, paused, and reset.
> - This pull request adds built-in agent provisioning and the
Reflection Coach bundle end-to-end.
> - The benefit is a safer first-party path for Paperclip-managed agents
without bypassing the same governance model used for operator-created
agents.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue was found for this exact built-in agent and
Reflection Coach bundle work.

Problem/motivation:
- Paperclip did not have a first-party built-in agent lifecycle for
product-owned agents.
- Bundled agent resources such as default instructions, skills, and
routines needed managed ownership and reset semantics.
- Approval-gated companies needed built-in setup to preserve requested
adapter, budget, manager, and permission state through board approval.
- The board UI needed clear built-in badges, setup affordances,
readiness state, and bundle status without exposing secrets.

Proposed solution:
- Add a company-scoped built-in agent registry,
provisioning/reset/reconcile/status APIs, and Reflection Coach bundled
resources.
- Track bundled managed resources in the database with idempotent
migration behavior.
- Reuse existing agent approval, authorization, budget, and activity-log
paths instead of creating a bypass.
- Add UI setup, badges, gates, bundle panels, and route coverage for
built-in agents.

Duplicate search:
- Searched GitHub PRs for `built-in agents Reflection Coach
repo:paperclipai/paperclip`; only this PR was returned.
- Searched GitHub issues for the same query; no public issues were
returned.

## What Changed

- Added built-in agent definitions, lifecycle state derivation,
provisioning, reset, reconcile, status, and routine-control routes.
- Added the `built_in_managed_resources` migration and schema exports
for bundled instructions, skill, and routine ownership.
- Added the Reflection Coach built-in bundle with default instructions,
skill catalog content, routine template, default permissions, and
managed-resource drift handling.
- Added approval-aware provisioning behavior that preserves requested
adapter config, budgets, manager assignment, and built-in permissions
through hire approval.
- Added authorization and mutation gates for built-in agent and skill
changes, including consented Reflection Coach change paths.
- Added UI surfaces for built-in agent setup, roster/detail badges,
readiness gates, bundle status, routine controls, and route filtering.
- Added company import/export and validator coverage for built-in
managed resources and low-trust/red-team presets.
- Addressed Greptile follow-ups for pending approval reconciliation,
consent-gate error propagation, config-read authorization fallback,
approval-path manager preservation, and non-model adapter provisioning.

## Verification

Local verification:
- `git diff --check public/master..HEAD` passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` passed with all gates clean.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
ui/src/components/ConfigureBuiltInAgentModal.test.tsx` passed: 1 file, 4
tests.
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/components/EntityRow.test.tsx

ui/src/components/BuiltInBundlePanel.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/InstanceExperimentalSettings.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/Routines.test.tsx` passed: 7 files, 64 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/built-in-agents.test.ts
src/__tests__/authorization-service.test.ts
src/__tests__/company-skills-routes.test.ts` passed: 3 files, 91 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db check:migrations` passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed after the rebase; `pnpm --filter ui
typecheck` passed after the final UI review fix.

Remote verification on latest head
`1c61f693a4ec881d739022b0e75a8ca8bf8c2cd8`:
- Merge state: `CLEAN`.
- Greptile: `5/5`, zero unresolved Greptile threads.
- PR check rollup: all checks successful, neutral, or skipped as
expected.
- Passing gates include Build, Typecheck + Release Registry, all server
shards, all workspace shards, all serialized server suites, e2e, Canary
Dry Run, policy, review, verify, Socket, Superagent, and Snyk.

## Risks

- This adds a new managed-resource table and migration; the migration
uses idempotent create/add/index guards and passed migration safety
checks.
- Built-in agent provisioning touches approval and authorization paths;
tests cover pending approval preservation, stale retry rejection,
consent gates, and config-read fallback behavior.
- Reflection Coach creates managed instructions, skill, and routine
resources; drift/reset behavior is covered by service tests and redacted
API responses.
- Non-model adapter setup now provisions a `needs_setup` built-in row
before command/endpoint fields are complete; this matches the server
lifecycle and is covered by the setup modal regression test.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex coding agent based on GPT-5. Exact hosted model ID,
context-window size, and reasoning-mode labels are not exposed in this
runtime; tool use, shell execution, GitHub CLI/API access, and local
code editing were enabled.

b13eb5b2b5 Skill Studio: three-pane skill IDE with sandboxed test runs (#9241)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The Skills Manager gives operators a reusable skill layer, but
iteration still required manual edits, ad hoc prompts, and indirect run
inspection.
> - Skill authors need a focused workflow for editing skill files,
saving representative test inputs, and running those inputs through an
agent without exposing harness tasks as normal company work.
> - The backend therefore needs durable test inputs, reusable run
templates, hidden harness issues, scoped run execution, retention
metadata, and read-containment rules around hidden work.
> - The frontend needs a three-pane Studio that keeps skill files, saved
inputs/templates, and run output/history visible together while
preserving the existing design system and token rules.
> - This pull request ships that Skill Studio surface end to end:
database migrations, shared contracts, server APIs/services, hidden
harness execution behavior, UI routes/components, and focused tests.
> - The benefit is faster and safer skill iteration, with inspectable
outputs and fewer ways for internal harness work to leak into normal
task lists, costs, or adjacent read APIs.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this feature. Feature request summary:

- Problem: Skill authors need to edit and test company skills in one
place instead of switching between the skill detail page, task creation,
run output, and manual prompt history.
- Proposed solution: Add a Skill Studio workbench with saved inputs,
reusable templates, hidden sandboxed test runs, live run status, output
inspection, run history, rerun/delete controls, and frontmatter-aware
editing.
- Expected users: Paperclip operators and agent-company maintainers who
create, fork, import, and tune skills.
- Related public PRs: Supersedes #9205, which was replaced so the public
PR branch name follows contributor policy.
- Duplicate search: searched public GitHub issues and PRs for "Skill
Studio"; no other active public issue or PR directly covers this
feature.

## What Changed

- Added database migrations for Skill Studio test inputs, test runs,
test run retention, and reusable run templates.
- Added shared Skill Studio types, validators, route helpers,
frontmatter utilities, and status handling.
- Added server services and routes for saved inputs, test runs,
templates, reruns, terminal-run deletion, hidden harness issue
execution, and run-detail hydration.
- Strengthened hidden-issue read containment across issue-adjacent
routes and cost rollups used by skill test harness work.
- Added the Skill Studio UI with skill file editing, frontmatter
editing, saved inputs, templates, run creation/cancel/rerun/delete
flows, output rendering, history, route support, and responsive pane
behavior.
- Added focused backend, shared, and UI tests for the new APIs, routing
logic, editor/run behavior, hidden-issue containment, and migration
safety.
- Rebased onto current `master`, removed the generated lockfile diff
from the PR, and verified no workflow files are changed.

## Verification

- [x] `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db check:migrations`
- [x] `pnpm check:token-gates`
- [x] `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/company-skills-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-skills-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-skill-test-runs-service.test.ts
ui/src/lib/skill-studio.test.ts ui/src/pages/SkillStudio.test.tsx` — 5
files, 132 tests passed
- [x] Greptile review on the latest PR head
- [x] GitHub PR checks on the latest PR head

## Risks

- Medium risk because this is a broad feature touching database schema,
server orchestration, issue visibility, and a large UI surface.
- Hidden harness issue containment is security-sensitive; this PR
includes regression coverage for adjacent read paths and cost rollups.
- The new migrations are additive and use idempotent guards where
applicable, but deployed databases that previously tested draft
migration numbers should still be checked carefully.
- The UI depends on a new resizable panels package in `ui/package.json`;
the lockfile is intentionally left to repository automation.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-5 coding agent with shell, git, and GitHub CLI tool
use. Earlier feature commits include assistance from other Paperclip
coding agents; this PR preparation, rebase, cleanup commit, and PR body
were completed by OpenAI Codex in a Paperclip worktree.

Dotta 83f5f59842 [codex] Hide goals sidebar link behind experiment (#9189)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The board sidebar is the primary navigation surface for operators
scanning companies, projects, tasks, agents, and related control-plane
tools.
> - Goals still has a route and product surface, but keeping the
top-level sidebar link always visible makes it part of the default
navigation whether or not that surface is ready for every operator.
> - Instance experimental settings already provide a controlled place to
expose optional UI surfaces while they are being evaluated.
> - This pull request adds a dedicated experimental setting for
restoring the Goals sidebar link.
> - The benefit is a quieter default sidebar with an explicit escape
hatch for operators who still need the Goals entry point.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this internal task, so the feature
request is described inline.

**Subsystem affected**
Cross-cutting: `ui/`, `server/`, and `packages/shared`.

**Problem or motivation**
The Goals route remains available, but the top-level Goals sidebar entry
makes that surface part of the default operator navigation. While the
goals surface is still being evaluated, operators need a quieter default
sidebar without losing an escape hatch for teams that still rely on the
link.

**Proposed solution**
Add a boolean instance experimental setting, `enableGoalsSidebarLink`,
default it to `false`, and render the Goals sidebar link only when the
setting is enabled. Expose the toggle in Instance Experimental Settings
so operators can restore the link without changing routes or rebuilding
the app.

**Alternatives considered**
- Remove the Goals route entirely: rejected because this task only asks
to hide the sidebar entry point and preserve access for teams evaluating
goals.
- Keep the sidebar link always visible: rejected because it does not
provide the requested quieter default navigation.
- Hard-code a local UI flag: rejected because instance experimental
settings already provide the expected operator-controlled pattern.

**Roadmap alignment**
Checked `ROADMAP.md`; no overlapping goals/sidebar/experimental roadmap
entry was found.

**Additional context**
The `/goals` route is preserved. This PR only gates the sidebar
navigation item.

## What Changed

- Added `enableGoalsSidebarLink` to the shared instance experimental
settings type and validator, defaulting to `false`.
- Normalized the new setting in the server instance settings service.
- Hid the Goals sidebar nav item unless the new setting is enabled.
- Added a Goals Sidebar Link toggle to the Instance Experimental
Settings page.
- Updated shared, server, sidebar, and settings page tests for the new
setting.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/validators/instance.test.ts

## Risks

Low risk. The main behavior shift is that operators who depended on the
sidebar Goals link need to enable the new experimental toggle. The
`/goals` route itself is not removed.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip f17202b571 Add execution workspace branch reconciliation route (#9170)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is an open-source app that lets teams run AI agents for
work tasks; each agent session uses an execution workspace — a git
checkout — to track the agent's active code state.
> - Every execution workspace has an expected target branch
(`PAPERCLIP_WORKSPACE_BRANCH`). The workspace git HEAD should always
point to that branch so agents commit in the right place.
> - When workspace git HEAD diverges from the expected branch — for
example after a harness branch-name fix or an accidental `checkout -b`
during a CI-retrigger — the discrepancy must be corrected before agents
can continue safely.
> - Operators (board users) need a controlled, audited path to reconcile
a workspace's live branch back to the expected target, with an override
escape-hatch for cases where the normal forward path is blocked.
> - This pull request adds a board-only `POST
/api/execution-workspaces/:id/reconcile-branch` service operation and
route that validates safety preconditions, resolves matching
recovery-action fingerprints, posts source-issue audit comments, and
records the reconciliation outcome.
> - The benefit is that operators can correct branch divergence through
the API with a full audit trail, instead of via raw database edits.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this change. Context below follows the
feature-request template format.

**Subsystem affected**

server/ — REST API & orchestration services; packages/shared — request
validation.

**Problem or motivation**

Execution workspaces have an expected branch record that must match the
checked-out worktree branch. When the live git branch and stored branch
record drift apart, operators currently lack a first-class, audited API
to reconcile the record. The fallback is manual database repair or
workspace replacement, both of which are risky and hard to audit.

**Proposed solution**

Add a board-only execution workspace branch reconciliation operation.
`forward` mode re-inspects the server-side git state and only updates
the branch record when the stored branch is an ancestor of the
checked-out branch. `override` mode is a break-glass path that requires
board access and an operator reason. Both modes require a clean, idle
workspace, write audit details, post a source-issue audit comment, and
resolve the matching workspace-validation recovery action.

**Alternatives considered**

Manual database edit (no durable audit trail and easy to mistype),
recreating the workspace (heavier operational disruption), or trusting
client-supplied ancestry evidence (unsafe because the server must verify
the git state itself).

**Roadmap alignment**

This is incremental hardening for execution-workspace recovery and
operator controls. It does not duplicate a public roadmap item.

**Additional context**

The endpoint is intended for operator recovery, not normal agent control
flow, so the generated OpenAPI metadata and runtime route both classify
it as board-only.
## What Changed

- Added `reconcileExecutionWorkspaceBranchSchema` discriminated-union
validator (`forward` with optional reason, `override` requiring a
non-empty reason string) to
`packages/shared/src/validators/execution-workspace.ts`
- Exported `ReconcileExecutionWorkspaceBranch` type and the new schema
from the shared package index
- Added board-only reconcile-branch service operation in the execution
workspaces service: safety checks, recovery-action fingerprint
resolution, source-issue audit comment, and outcome recording
- Added clean-worktree and stopped-runtime-service preconditions before
branch-record mutation.
- Marked the reconcile route as board-only in OpenAPI generated auth
metadata.
- Added `POST /api/execution-workspaces/:id/reconcile-branch` route
wired to the new service operation with board-permission gate
- Extended `execution-workspaces-routes.test.ts` and
`execution-workspaces-service.test.ts` to cover: safety-check rejection,
override-reason validation, audit-comment posting, and recovery-action
fingerprint resolution (2 files / 19 tests)

## Verification

```sh
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck
pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/execution-workspaces-routes.test.ts server/src/__tests__/execution-workspaces-service.test.ts
pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/execution-workspaces-service.test.ts server/src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts
```

## Risks

- **Board-only gate:** the operation is gated behind the board
permission; no agent can trigger it without operator authorization.
- **Override requires reason:** the `override` mode requires a non-empty
reason string so every bypass is audited.
- **Idempotent recovery-action resolution:** re-running with the same
fingerprint is safe; duplicate resolution is a no-op.
- **No execution-state mutation:** the route records a reconciliation
intent and updates the branch record; it does not restart the workspace
or modify running agent state.
- Overall risk: **low**.

5163208c3c Add workspace branch ancestry diagnostics (#9117)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents run in git worktrees tied to a workspace branch; when the
actual branch diverges from the expected one (e.g. a parent feature
branch was renamed), Paperclip currently has no structured field to
report *why* the branch is incoherent or whether it can be
auto-reconciled
> - The workspace-incoherence fingerprint already captures SHA
mismatches, but there is no evidence field distinguishing "actual branch
is a descendant of expected" (safe to fast-forward) from "branches have
diverged" (needs human review) or "SHAs are unavailable" (unknown)
> - Operators and future recovery flows need a typed verdict to make
decisions without re-running git commands themselves
> - This pull request adds `ancestryVerdict` and `plainLanguageReason`
evidence fields computed via `git merge-base --is-ancestor`, and
scaffolds the off-by-default `enableWorkspaceBranchReconcileForward`
instance setting with no runtime behavior yet
> - The benefit is that future recovery logic can branch on a typed
verdict rather than parsing prose, while the fingerprint v1 payload
stays stable

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue pre-exists for this diagnostic addition.

**Problem or motivation**

When Paperclip detects that an agent's actual workspace branch differs
from the recorded expected branch, the current fingerprint carries only
raw SHAs. There is no typed field indicating whether the actual branch
is a descendant of the expected one (safe reconcile path) vs. a true
divergence (requires human intervention) vs. an indeterminate state
(missing SHAs or git errors). Downstream recovery logic cannot branch
safely without re-running git.

**Proposed solution**

Add `ancestryVerdict` and `plainLanguageReason` to the workspace
incoherence evidence type; compute via `git merge-base --is-ancestor`;
scaffold a feature-flag for future forward-reconcile behavior
(`enableWorkspaceBranchReconcileForward`, off by default, not yet read
by any runtime path).

**Alternatives considered**

Encoding the verdict in the existing fingerprint string was rejected
because the fingerprint is a stable identity hash, not a mutable
evidence bag. Changing it would break monitors keyed on the string.

**Roadmap alignment**

Supports future workspace auto-reconcile work; ROADMAP.md has no
conflicting entry for this diagnostic layer.

## What Changed

- `packages/shared/src/types/heartbeat.ts` adds `ancestryVerdict` and
`plainLanguageReason` fields to `WorkspaceIncoherenceEvidence`
- `packages/shared/src/types/instance.ts` adds
`enableWorkspaceBranchReconcileForward` boolean (off by default)
- `packages/shared/src/validators/instance.ts` exports the new flag from
the settings validator
- `server/src/services/workspace-runtime.ts` computes `ancestryVerdict`
via `git merge-base --is-ancestor`; falls back to `unknown` on missing
SHAs or command errors; excludes verdict fields from fingerprint v1
computation
- `server/src/services/instance-settings.ts` wires the new setting
through to the settings service
- Tests updated in `workspace-runtime.test.ts`,
`instance-settings-service.test.ts`, `instance-settings-routes.test.ts`,
and `instance.test.ts` (104 tests total)

## Verification

```bash
pnpm exec vitest run \
  server/src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts \
  server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-service.test.ts \
  server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-routes.test.ts \
  packages/shared/src/validators/instance.test.ts
# 104 tests pass

pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck
# both exit 0
```

Manual: trigger a workspace incoherence event and confirm the evidence
object carries `ancestryVerdict` and `plainLanguageReason`; confirm the
fingerprint string stays `workspace_incoherence:v1:sha256:...`.

## Risks

**Low risk.** Purely additive. Fingerprint v1 payload is unchanged. The
new flag has no runtime effect in this PR. `git merge-base
--is-ancestor` exits non-zero for both "not an ancestor" and "command
error"; both are handled and collapsed to typed values with a prose
reason.

## Model Used

Provider: Anthropic, model: Claude Sonnet 4.6 (`claude-sonnet-4-6`),
200k context, tool use enabled.

DottaandPaperclip 903886bc79 [codex] Add starred resource sidebar controls (#9085)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The board UI is the main daily navigation surface for agents,
projects, and their related resources.
> - Operators need a lightweight way to keep frequently used agents and
projects close without changing company-wide ordering or ownership.
> - Resource memberships already model per-user relationships to
projects and agents, so they are the right place to store user-specific
starred state.
> - This pull request extends that membership contract with a starred
timestamp and exposes star controls in list/detail views.
> - The sidebar then uses those starred memberships to show compact,
user-specific shortcuts.
> - The benefit is faster navigation without introducing a separate
favorites system or leaking preferences across users.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists.

Feature request:

## Problem or motivation

Users cannot pin frequently used agents or projects into the main
sidebar. Returning to important resources requires scanning full
project/agent lists or navigating through detail pages, which adds
friction to repeated daily workflows.

## Proposed solution

Store a per-user `starred_at` timestamp on agent and project
memberships, expose API actions to set or clear that state, add star
toggle controls to list/detail pages, and render starred projects and
agents as compact sidebar shortcuts.

## Alternatives considered

A separate favorites table would work, but it would duplicate membership
scoping and require another resource relationship model. Keeping starred
state on memberships preserves existing company/user boundaries and
avoids a second source of truth.

## Roadmap alignment

Checked `ROADMAP.md`; no overlapping planned core work for starred
resource/sidebar navigation was found.

## Additional context

The affected subsystems are `packages/db`, `packages/shared`, `server/`,
and `ui/`. The migration is idempotent with `IF NOT EXISTS` guards so
environments that saw an earlier local migration name can still apply
the final ordered migration safely.

## What Changed

- Added idempotent migration `0133_resource_membership_stars` for
`starred_at` columns and lookup indexes on agent/project memberships.
- Extended shared resource membership types and validators with starred
metadata and actions.
- Updated server resource membership services/routes to read and mutate
starred resource state.
- Added reusable star toggle UI and resource membership hook support for
starred state.
- Added starred projects and agents sidebar rendering, plus star
controls on list and detail pages.
- Added focused shared, server, and UI coverage for starred membership
behavior and sidebar rendering.

## Verification

- Rebased and force-with-lease pushed current PR head
`a086fc965391c9e50a51b5b83b5b44a797b2a6f4` onto current
`paperclipai/paperclip:master`; `gh pr view` reports `MERGEABLE` with no
merge conflicts. GitHub checks are green for this fresh head.
- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/resource-memberships.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/resource-memberships-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts
ui/src/components/Sidebar.test.tsx
ui/src/components/SidebarAgents.test.tsx
ui/src/components/SidebarStarredProjects.test.tsx
ui/src/components/StarToggle.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/InstanceExperimentalSettings.test.tsx` passed after the
rebase: 8 files, 143 tests.
- Greptile re-review is 5/5; the remaining screenshot thread was
resolved as non-blocking because this task explicitly requested no
screenshots/images in the PR.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
ui/src/components/SidebarStarredProjects.test.tsx` passed after the
mobile pending-spinner fix.
- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/resource-memberships.test.ts

ui/src/components/SidebarStarredProjects.test.tsx
ui/src/components/StarToggle.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/InstanceExperimentalSettings.test.tsx` passed: 7 files, 68
tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db typecheck && pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/shared typecheck && pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server
typecheck && pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` passed
db/shared/server, then failed in pre-existing UI code outside this PR:
`src/pages/CompanyEnvironments.tsx` missing `@xterm/*` type declarations
and `previous` possibly null.
- Checked that the PR diff does not include `pnpm-lock.yaml` or
`.github/workflows` changes.
- Checked `ROADMAP.md` and found no overlapping planned core work for
starred resource/sidebar navigation.
- Searched existing GitHub PRs for duplicate starred-resource/sidebar
work and found none.

## Risks

- Migration touches membership tables. The SQL uses `IF NOT EXISTS` for
columns and indexes so environments that saw an earlier local migration
name can still apply this safely.
- Sidebar ordering and visibility changes could affect users who rely on
the previous flat sidebar layout.
- Starred state is per-user membership metadata; code paths must
continue preserving company/user scoping around memberships.

ad961227f5 feat(secrets): add user-specific runtime secrets (#8825)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agent runs often need provider credentials, API tokens, and other
environment-bound secrets.
> - Company-level secrets work for shared credentials, but they do not
model values that should differ by human operator.
> - Without a user-scoped model, a run can dispatch without knowing
whether the responsible human has supplied the needed value.
> - Paperclip also needs run attribution to make those user-scoped
runtime checks deterministic and auditable.
> - This pull request adds user-specific secret definitions, per-user
values, environment bindings, responsible-user attribution, and runtime
resolution gates.
> - The benefit is that teams can define the secret once, let each user
provide their own value, and block runs before dispatch when required
user secrets or active definitions are unavailable.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #224
Refs #6057

This PR implements user-specific secret support as a core
secret-management capability rather than a one-off adapter setting. It
is related to existing public work on company secrets UI and runtime
secret refs, but is distinct because the value is owned by the
responsible user and resolved at run dispatch time.

Related PR search before opening found existing secrets work such as
#1550, #8256, #8614, #8634, and #8647; none of those add the full
user-secret definition/value/runtime gate covered here.

## What Changed

- Added user-secret definitions and per-user "My secrets" values,
keeping stored values out of access metadata.
- Added `user_secret_ref` environment bindings and UI affordances to
pick them alongside existing secret refs.
- Added responsible-user runtime resolution so user-secret refs resolve
against the human responsible for the run.
- Added pre-dispatch missing-secret gates so runs fail before adapter
dispatch when required user values are absent or definitions are
inactive.
- Added low-trust allowlist hardening for user-secret runtime access.
- Added issue, routine, run, and agent API key responsible-user
attribution and fail-closed dispatch behavior when attribution cannot be
resolved.
- Added denial-copy mapping so responsible-user authorization failures
surface as actionable run outcomes instead of opaque setup failures.
- Added OpenAPI documentation for the user-secret routes.
- Rebases cleanly on current `master`; migrations were renumbered
incrementally as `0128_user_specific_secrets`,
`0129_agent_api_key_responsible_user`, and
`0130_run_responsible_user_invariant` after upstream `0126`/`0127`
migrations.
- Removed previously committed local design screenshots so the PR
contains code/docs/tests only.

## Verification

## Risks

- Runtime behavior now depends on a run having a correct responsible
user; missing or incorrect responsibility assignment can block runs
before adapter dispatch.
- `user_secret_ref` bindings intentionally expose metadata without
values, but UI/API callers may need to handle the new binding kind
explicitly.
- External secret providers and IAM policies are not automatically
provisioned by this PR; operators still need to configure provider-side
access for non-local vaults.
- The PR is broad across db/shared/server/UI/runtime paths, so release
validation should include both API and UI secret workflows before merge.
- The migration renumbering is intentionally incremental after upstream
migrations; the branch migrations use guarded
column/table/index/constraint creation so users who tested the older
draft numbering should not hit duplicate DDL for the existing objects.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip bcac517f3b Add browser SSH terminal for custom image setup (#8911)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Environment sandboxes already support custom image creation and
refresh through a temporary SSH setup session.
> - The existing workflow makes operators copy an SSH command into an
external terminal before they can install packages or make image
changes.
> - That extra context switch is slower, easier to get wrong, and less
integrated with the setup session Paperclip already tracks.
> - This pull request adds an embedded browser SSH terminal for custom
image setup, so operators can start working in the target sandbox
directly from the environment configuration flow.
> - The implementation uses short-lived websocket attachment tokens,
session-lifetime SSH host-key pinning, and server-managed terminal
cleanup so the feature fits the existing setup-session boundary.
> - The benefit is a smoother custom image creation and refresh
experience without asking users to leave Paperclip for routine sandbox
setup work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists.

### Subsystem affected

Cross-cutting: `server/` custom image setup APIs and websocket handling,
`ui/` environment configuration UI, and shared custom image contracts.

### Problem or motivation

Custom image creation and refresh require an operator to open a separate
SSH client, paste the command shown by Paperclip, perform setup work,
then return to the browser to finish the image flow. This is functional
but awkward for a setup process that already starts and tracks a
temporary sandbox session.

### Proposed solution

Embed an SSH terminal in the custom image setup UI. When a setup session
exposes an SSH payload, Paperclip should open a browser terminal backed
by a server-side websocket session, let the operator run setup commands
in-place, and then close the terminal when setup is finished, cancelled,
expired, or disconnected.

### Alternatives considered

- Keep the existing copy/paste SSH command workflow. This remains a
fallback, but it does not streamline the common path.
- Put SSH credentials directly into websocket URLs. This was avoided so
terminal authentication can happen in an explicit first websocket auth
frame rather than in logged URLs.
- Trust the SSH host blindly for every reconnect. This PR instead pins
the observed host-key fingerprint for the setup-session lifetime.

### Roadmap alignment

This fits the roadmap theme of making agent workspaces usable in more
remote and sandboxed environments while preserving Paperclip's
control-plane model.

### Additional context

Public GitHub search did not find a duplicate issue or PR for `custom
image terminal ssh` in `paperclipai/paperclip`.

## What Changed

- Added server-side terminal session tracking for custom image setup
sessions, including connect-token issuance, websocket attachment,
expiry, resize, input, and shutdown handling.
- Added an embedded browser terminal to the custom image creation and
refresh flow when a setup session provides SSH connection details.
- Moved terminal token authentication out of the websocket URL and into
the first websocket JSON auth frame.
- Added SSH host-key SHA-256 pinning for each terminal session and
documented the provider convention for username-embedded SSH
credentials.
- Updated the custom image environment API and UI so the setup terminal
can open, reconnect, show status, authenticate, resize, and remain
active for the setup-session lifetime once attached.
- Kept custom image setup routes company-scoped and closed active
terminal sessions on setup finish/cancel.
- Added focused unit/integration/UI coverage for token expiry,
setup-session expiry, websocket close paths, host-key pinning, and
terminal session lifecycle behavior.
- Removed the generated lockfile delta from the PR; CI owns temporary
lockfile regeneration for manifest-changing PRs.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server build`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui build`
- `pnpm run typecheck:build-gaps`
- `git diff --check`
- Local sensitive-content scan over the PR diff using patterns for API
keys, private keys, private hostnames, local paths, token fields, and
credential-like strings.
- Findings were limited to removed URL-token code and synthetic test
placeholders such as `ssh-token-secret` and
`terminal-token-terminal-token-123456`.
- No real credentials, private hostnames, local filesystem paths, or
instance-local links were found.
- Remote PR checks were green after the implementation commit, including
Build, Typecheck + Release Registry, General tests, serialized server
suites, e2e, verify, Socket, Snyk, Superagent, and Greptile 5/5.
- Post-merge PR hardening on July 3, 2026: merged `origin/master` at
`47448721e` into the branch, resolved the `CompanyEnvironments.tsx`
import conflict, reran focused tests, server/UI typechecks, server/UI
builds, `pnpm run typecheck:build-gaps`, and `git diff --check`, scanned
the final diff for sensitive content, pushed `4b43558cc`, and confirmed
all remote checks plus Greptile 5/5 were green.
- PR metadata correction on July 3, 2026: changed the title/body framing
from bug-fix language to feature-request language. No source files
changed for this metadata-only update.

## Risks

- Moderate surface area because this adds websocket routing,
setup-session runtime state, package dependencies, and a new custom
image UI path.
- New websocket attachments still require valid short-lived tokens;
established terminal sessions remain bounded by setup-session expiry,
explicit finish/cancel, client close, or server shutdown.
- The terminal-session store is in-memory, so active terminal websocket
tokens and host-key pins do not survive server restarts.
- SSH host-key verification uses session-lifetime TOFU pinning because
the current provider payload does not expose a trusted host-key
fingerprint.
- The external SSH command remains important as a fallback if a browser,
proxy, or network environment cannot sustain the websocket terminal.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip b4815bf964 Scope environment custom images to instance environments (#8850)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Environments are now managed as instance-level runtime resources
rather than per-company rows
> - The custom environment image setup tables were introduced with their
own `company_id` columns and route query parameters
> - That split made one saved environment image state depend on an extra
company context even though the environment itself is the durable owner
> - It also made saved-environment probes harder because applying the
active custom image template could require a company context when no
secret-backed config needed one
> - This pull request scopes custom image templates and setup sessions
directly to the saved environment
> - The benefit is that reusable environment images follow the same
instance-scoped model as environments while secret resolution still uses
company context only when secrets require it

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No matching public GitHub issue was found.

Bug report:

### What happened?

saved environment custom-image routes and persistence required a
`companyId` even though environments are instance-scoped, and saved
sandbox probes did not opt into active custom-image template application
unless a company context was present.

### Expected behavior

custom-image templates and setup sessions should be owned by the saved
environment, and saved sandbox probes should apply the active template
while still requiring a company context only for secret-backed runtime
config.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Configure an instance-scoped sandbox environment with custom-image
setup support.
2. Start or inspect a custom-image session or template for that saved
environment.
3. Probe the saved environment without a custom-image-specific
`companyId` query parameter.

### Paperclip version or commit

current `master` after the environment custom-image template migration.

### Deployment mode

Local dev (pnpm dev) or authenticated local Paperclip instance.

### Installation method

Built from source (pnpm dev / pnpm build).

### Agent adapter(s) involved

Not adapter-specific (core bug).

### Database mode

Embedded PGlite/Postgres dev database.

### Access context

Board human operator.

### Privacy checklist

No logs, secrets, tokens, private URLs, or local machine paths are
included.

Duplicate search performed:

- `gh search prs "environment custom image companyId
repo:paperclipai/paperclip" --state open --limit 20`
- `gh search prs "custom image environment scoped
repo:paperclipai/paperclip" --state open --limit 20`
- `gh search issues "environment custom image
repo:paperclipai/paperclip" --state open --limit 20`

The returned results were unrelated adapter, Docker, auth, or
stale-workspace items.

## What Changed

- Removed redundant `company_id` columns from environment custom-image
templates and setup sessions.
- Added migration `0127_environment_custom_images_instance_scoped` to
collapse duplicate active rows per environment before dropping the old
company-scoped indexes/columns.
- Updated custom-image services, route handlers, shared validators, and
UI API/query keys to use environment-scoped custom-image state.
- Kept runtime secret resolution company-aware only when secret refs or
bindings require a company context.
- Made saved sandbox environment probes opt into active custom-image
template application.
- Updated DB, shared, server, and UI tests for the new
environment-scoped contract.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db run check:migrations`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/db/src/environment-custom-images-schema.test.ts
packages/shared/src/environment-custom-images.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-custom-image-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-custom-images-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-routes.test.ts
ui/src/pages/CompanyEnvironments.test.tsx`
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm test:run` before rebasing onto latest `master`; after the rebase
only the migration number changed, and the migration check plus focused
suite, typecheck, and build were rerun.
- `pnpm build`

## Risks

- Migration safety: the migration supersedes duplicate active templates
per environment and fails duplicate active setup sessions before adding
environment-only unique indexes. Operators with duplicate historical
active rows should review which active template is kept.
- Behavior shift: plugin custom-image setup calls now receive
`companyId: "instance"` when no secret binding determines a concrete
company context.
- Secret-backed configs still require an explicit or uniquely inferable
company context; environments with secret bindings spread across
multiple companies continue to fail fast.

DottaandPaperclip ac9a883f8b Expire ask-user questions superseded by comments (#8799)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Issue-thread interactions are how agents ask board users for typed
decisions and structured answers inside an issue thread
> - Confirmation interactions already become stale when a later
board/user comment supersedes the pending decision
> - Question interactions had the same workflow risk, because a
board/user could answer in a comment while the old question card stayed
pending
> - This pull request extends the supersede-by-comment lifecycle to
ask-user-question interactions and makes that status visible in the UI
> - The benefit is agents get a clear continuation signal and users do
not see stale question forms after the discussion has moved on

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No exact public GitHub issue was found.

Bug report:

**Pre-submission checklist**

- [x] I have searched existing open and closed issues and this is not a
duplicate.
- [x] I am on the latest released version of Paperclip, or can reproduce
on `master`.
- [x] I have confirmed the error originates in Paperclip itself, not in
an agent adapter, API provider, or local configuration.

**What happened?**

Pending `ask_user_questions` interactions could remain open after a
later board/user comment changed or answered the request in-thread. That
left a stale form visible and kept the interaction in a pending state
even though the discussion had moved on.

**Expected behavior**

Question interactions should follow the same default
supersede-on-comment behavior as confirmation interactions, with an
explicit expired result that points to the superseding comment.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create an `ask_user_questions` interaction on an issue.
2. Add a board/user comment created at or after that interaction.
3. Observe that before this change, the question interaction stayed
pending instead of expiring as superseded by the comment.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Current `master` before this PR.

**Deployment mode**

Self-hosted server or local dev. The bug is in shared issue-thread
interaction lifecycle handling.

**Installation method**

Built from source.

**Agent adapter(s) involved**

Not adapter-specific. This is a core issue-thread interaction bug.

**Database mode**

Applies to the normal Paperclip database-backed interaction lifecycle.

**Access context**

Board user comments supersede agent-created questions.

**Relevant logs or output**

No crash output. The stale pending interaction was visible in the issue
thread state.

**Relevant config (if applicable)**

None.

**Additional context**

Confirmation-style interactions already supported this stale-by-comment
behavior. This PR brings question interactions into the same lifecycle
model.

**Privacy checklist**

- [x] I have reviewed all pasted output for PII and included no private
instance links, local ticket ids, secrets, logs, or screenshots.

## What Changed

- Added `supersedeOnUserComment` support to `ask_user_questions`
payloads, defaulting it to `true` during interaction creation.
- Expire pending question interactions when a later board/user comment
supersedes them, including a result with `expirationReason:
"superseded_by_comment"` and the superseding `commentId`.
- Updated interaction summaries and cards so expired question requests
show a clear amber state with a jump link to the comment and correct
singular/plural copy.
- Updated agent onboarding guidance to describe the new default and how
to opt out.
- Added shared, server, and UI test coverage for the new lifecycle
behavior.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/shared/src/issue-thread-interactions.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interaction-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interactions-service.test.ts
ui/src/components/IssueThreadInteractionCard.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/issue-thread-interactions.test.ts --reporter=dot` passed: 5
files, 73 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck && pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/server typecheck && pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui
typecheck` passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interactions-service.test.ts
--reporter=dot && pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` passed
after the final type-safety cleanup.
- Confirmed the branch is rebased on current `origin/master`.
- Confirmed the diff does not touch `pnpm-lock.yaml`,
`.github/workflows`, or database migrations.

## Risks

- Low-to-medium risk: `ask_user_questions` now defaults to expiring
after later board/user comments. Existing callers that need questions to
stay open through discussion can set `supersedeOnUserComment: false`.
- Expired question interactions store an empty `answers` array, so
downstream consumers should treat the explicit `expirationReason` as the
meaningful outcome.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 8d9f9fd240 Add reusable sandbox custom images (#8794)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A growing part of that work runs in sandboxed environments rather
than on the operator's local machine.
> - Today sandbox providers can start fresh workspaces and run probes,
but they do not have a shared contract for capturing and reusing
prepared sandbox state.
> - Operators need a way to set up tools, credentials, and project
dependencies once, then reuse that prepared image for later agent runs.
> - This pull request adds reusable sandbox custom images across the
provider contract, server runtime, and board UI.
> - It also keeps probes and sandbox copy flows aligned with
pre-authenticated/custom-image environments.
> - The benefit is faster, more reliable sandbox runs without repeatedly
rebuilding the same environment setup.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue was found for this change. Inline feature request
follows.

### Problem or motivation

Sandboxed agents need reusable prepared runtime state so repeated runs
do not require manual setup every time. Operators often need system
packages, CLIs, SDKs, dependency caches, credentials, and project
tooling available before an agent can work productively.

### Proposed solution

Add a provider-level custom-image capability, server-side setup/capture
lifecycle, Daytona/fake provider support, and board UI controls for
creating, testing, selecting, and deleting custom images.

### Alternatives considered

Leaving this as provider-specific setup outside Paperclip would keep the
control plane blind to image state and would not give agents consistent
environment metadata. Re-running setup commands for every lease is
simpler, but slower and less reliable for interactive or credentialed
setup.

### Roadmap alignment

Checked `ROADMAP.md`; this aligns with the Cloud / Sandbox agents
roadmap area and does not duplicate any related public issue or PR found
by search.

Additional context:
- Subsystem affected: cross-cutting (`packages/db`, `packages/shared`,
`packages/plugins`, `server`, `ui`).
- Duplicate search: searched GitHub for `sandbox custom image` and
`sandbox template environment`; no related public issues or PRs were
found.

## What Changed

- Added custom-image shared types, validators, constants, API paths, and
database schema/migration.
- Added server services/routes for custom-image templates and setup
sessions, including runtime cleanup and provider metadata handling.
- Extended plugin/sandbox provider capabilities for interactive setup,
template capture, and template deletion.
- Implemented custom-image support in the fake sandbox provider and
Daytona provider.
- Updated environment runtime/config handling so active custom images
flow into leases, probes, and agent execution.
- Added board UI controls and API client support for custom-image setup,
capture, selection, status, and error states.
- Hardened sandbox copy/probe behavior for insecure clipboard contexts
and pre-authenticated sandbox images.
- Added targeted coverage across shared validators, DB schema, server
routes/services, provider plugins, adapter probes, and UI flows.

## Verification

- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile --ignore-scripts`
- `pnpm vitest run
packages/adapters/claude-local/src/server/test.probe.test.ts
packages/adapters/claude-local/src/server/test.ts

- `pnpm build`
- `rm -rf packages/db/dist && pnpm test:run`
- Public-safety scan of the final diff found no internal Paperclip issue
links, private instance URLs, or real secret patterns.

## Risks

- Adds a database migration and new environment runtime tables, so
migration ordering and rollback need care.
- Provider implementations may differ in how reliably they can
capture/delete images; unsupported providers surface capability-gated UI
states.
- Custom-image state can contain operator-prepared tooling and
credentials inside the provider image, so providers must enforce their
own access controls and cleanup semantics.
- Broad surface area across shared contracts, server runtime, plugins,
adapters, and UI means CI and Greptile review should be watched closely.

and PR preparation. Earlier branch implementation work was assisted by

Devin Foley 765a75207a Add experimental server info debug view (#8676)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The dev/server UI exposes a `/api/health` endpoint and a lower-left
account drawer, but nothing surfaces *which* build the running instance
is on or when it last restarted
> - When iterating on a local dev instance it is hard to tell whether
the server you're looking at has actually restarted onto your latest
commit, or how stale the running process is
> - Developers need a lightweight, opt-in way to confirm the running
instance's identity without digging through logs or shelling into the
host
> - This pull request adds an experimental "Server Info Debug View"
setting that surfaces the running instance's last-restart time and
current commit as read-only rows in the account drawer
> - The benefit is a quick, in-UI sanity check of what the live server
is actually running, behind an experimental flag so it ships zero cost
to users who don't opt in

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists. Describing the underlying request inline
following the feature request template:

**Problem or motivation:**

When working against a local Paperclip dev instance there is no in-UI
way to confirm what the running server is — its current commit or when
it last restarted. You have to check logs or the host shell to know
whether the process picked up your latest build.

**Proposed solution:**

An opt-in experimental setting ("Server Info Debug View") that, once
enabled, renders a small read-only "Server" section at the bottom of the
lower-left account drawer showing **Last restarted** (the server process
start time) and **Running commit** (the current git HEAD short SHA +
subject).

**Alternatives considered:**

A separate top-right pill/overlay (like the work-life-balance plugin).
The account drawer was chosen to reuse existing menu-row styling and
avoid adding new always-present chrome.

**Roadmap alignment:**

Small, self-contained developer-experience aid gated behind an
experimental flag; does not overlap planned core roadmap work.

## What Changed

- Added `server/src/server-info.ts`: captures a `serverInfo` snapshot
once at boot — process start time and current git commit (SHA +
subject). Git is read via `execFileSync` with SHA validation and a
timeout.
- `/api/health` exposes the `serverInfo` snapshot, but only on
full-details health responses (board/agent in authenticated mode, or
local-trusted dev).
- Gated the UI surface behind a new `enableServerInfoDebugView`
experimental setting, wired through the shared instance type, validator,
settings normalizer, and OpenAPI schema.
- UI: added `SidebarServerInfo` rendering the read-only rows in the
account drawer (`BreadcrumbBar` / `SidebarAccountMenu`), plus the
experimental settings toggle and a typed `health` API client.
- Moved `ServerGitInfo` / `ServerInfoSnapshot` into
`@paperclipai/shared` so the server and UI share one definition instead
of duplicating it.
- Added unit tests for the server-info snapshot, health route exposure,
validator/normalizer, settings routes, the experimental settings page,
and the sidebar component.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/health.test.ts src/__tests__/server-info.test.ts
src/__tests__/instance-settings-service.test.ts
src/__tests__/instance-settings-routes.test.ts` — 32 passed
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/components/SidebarServerInfo.test.tsx
src/pages/InstanceExperimentalSettings.test.tsx` — 9 passed
- `tsc --noEmit` on both `@paperclipai/server` and `@paperclipai/ui` —
clean
- Manual: enable **Settings → Experimental → Server Info Debug View**,
refresh the UI, open the lower-left account drawer — a "Server" section
shows Last restarted and Running commit.

## Risks

- Low risk. The UI surface is fully opt-in via an experimental flag and
defaults off.
- The `serverInfo` field on `/api/health` is access-controlled to
full-details responses only (board/agent in authenticated mode, or
local-trusted dev) — never anonymous authenticated callers — so the git
SHA is not broadly exposed.
- The only new server work is a one-time git read at boot, guarded with
SHA validation and a timeout; failures degrade gracefully (the git block
reports `available: false` rather than throwing).

DottaandPaperclip fd2f82ac5b [codex] Add built-in Hermes adapters (#8543)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agent adapters are the boundary between the control plane and the
runtimes that actually do work.
> - Hermes support needs to be available as first-class local and
gateway adapters while still preserving the adapter-manager override
path for external packages.
> - The adapter work touches runtime execution, UI adapter metadata,
onboarding prompts, scoped credentials, release packaging, and smoke
coverage, so the handoff needs concrete verification rather than only
unit tests.
> - This pull request adds built-in Hermes local and Hermes gateway
support, keeps external adapter overrides compatible, and
documents/tests the gateway flow end to end.
> - The benefit is that operators can hire Hermes-backed agents without
a manual plugin install, while self-hosted installs can still
override/shadow the built-ins through Adapter manager packages.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this exact Hermes built-in adapter,
gateway onboarding, and release-source work.

Problem description:
- Hermes local and gateway adapters need a public, reviewable source
path in the monorepo so package artifacts and built-in adapter behavior
match the application source.
- Operators need built-in `hermes_local` and `hermes_gateway` adapter
choices without losing the ability to install external Hermes packages
as overrides.
- Gateway onboarding needs secure defaults for API server URLs, API
keys, and generated agent setup text.
- Hermes-originated task bridge credentials need narrower API-key scope
configuration.
- Related public PRs found during duplicate search include #3027, #2363,
#7544, #7950, #8095, and #8543.

## What Changed

- Added the unified Hermes adapter package with local and gateway
server/UI/CLI exports, config schemas, transcript parsing, model
detection, and package metadata.
- Registered `hermes_local` and `hermes_gateway` as built-in adapters
across shared constants, server registries, CLI packaging, and UI
adapter registries.
- Kept the external adapter override path compatible so installed Hermes
packages can shadow built-ins and restore the built-in parser when
disabled.
- Added Hermes gateway onboarding docs, board-operator docs, Docker
smoke assets, and shell smoke harnesses for join/e2e validation.
- Added scoped task-bridge API-key support, authorization checks,
issue-origin handling, and tests for Hermes-created Paperclip tasks.
- Hardened gateway transport and redaction behavior for API keys,
headers, session data, and smoke diagnostics.
- Updated release packaging/bootstrap checks for the Hermes packages
while leaving `pnpm-lock.yaml` out of the PR per repository policy.

## Verification

Targeted local verification recorded before PR handoff:
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/hermes-paperclip-adapter exec vitest run
src/gateway/server/execute.test.ts` — 14/14 passed.
- `pnpm test:hermes-gateway-smoke` — 6/6 passed.
- Hermes package typecheck/build checks passed.
- Focused server/UI adapter tests passed — 31/31.
- Release helper Node tests passed — 18/18.
- `git diff --check origin/master..HEAD` passed.

Fresh Docker E2E smoke evidence:
- Ran `pnpm smoke:hermes-gateway-e2e` on 2026-06-26 with a fresh state
directory and fresh Docker container against a live Paperclip dev
server.
- Hermes direct execution reached `completed`.
- Hermes stop/cancel path reached `cancelled`.
- Hermes gateway created a Paperclip task, Paperclip ran the Hermes
agent, and the task reached `done` with the expected marker response.
- Temporary board auth keys, token files, smoke state, and Docker
containers were cleaned up after the run.

PR checks on head `b5eae40ce`:
- GitHub Actions passed: `policy`, `review`, `Typecheck + Release
Registry`, all general test shards, all serialized server shards,
`Build`, `Canary Dry Run`, `e2e`, and aggregate `verify`.
- External checks passed: Snyk and Socket Project Report.
- External Socket Pull Request Alerts remained pending after the
first-party CI matrix completed.

## Risks

- Medium risk: this spans adapter registration, package publishing,
gateway execution, onboarding docs, API-key scoping, and UI adapter
metadata.
- Migration risk is low: the scope-config migration adds a nullable
column and does not rewrite existing keys.
- Gateway execution depends on operator-provided Hermes API
configuration; the smoke covers the Docker gateway path but real
deployments may differ by network/auth setup.
- Direct Greptile review on the latest expanded diff is file-count
limited, although the commitperclip review gate passed.

DottaandPaperclip 43b005b704 Add pipeline workflow primitives and operator UI (#7903)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The pipeline subsystem models repeatable work as items moving
through stages, with agent automation, review gates, blockers, drift
notices, and linked work.
> - Operators need this to be usable as one coherent workflow surface,
not just as backend primitives or disconnected route experiments.
> - The branch now carries the pipeline data model, service/routes,
CLI/tutorial path, aggregation feeds, operator UI, stage automation
controls, liveness/retry handling, and follow-up polish that make the
primitive reviewable end to end.
> - This pull request is the single review target for that pipeline
workflow primitive stack.
> - The benefit is that reviewers can evaluate the full operator
experience and server contract together against `master`.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this work. The underlying feature
request is described inline.

### Problem or motivation

Paperclip needs a first-class way to model multi-stage agent/company
workflows where upstream items can spawn downstream work, request
review, carry fields across pipelines, surface drift, retry automation,
and show operators where work is blocked or active. Without a unified
pipeline primitive, these workflows spread across ad hoc issues,
routines, and comments, making the state hard to inspect or operate.

### Proposed solution

Add the pipeline workflow primitive stack: database schema and
migrations, shared validators/types, server services and REST routes,
aggregation and liveness helpers, CLI/tutorial smoke support, and the
React operator UI for pipeline lists, boards, item detail,
review/learnings views, settings, stage automation, secrets, carry-over
fields, and retry/recovery flows.

### Alternatives considered

- Keep workflows as loosely linked issues and routines: rejected because
operators need a single board/detail/settings surface for repeated
workflow patterns.
- Ship backend primitives first and defer UI: rejected for this branch
because the operator experience is the main way to validate the
primitive.
- Add a narrower one-off content workflow: rejected because the same
primitives are useful across future company processes.

## What Changed

- Added and evolved pipeline schema, migrations, shared contracts,
server services, REST routes, route tests, and CLI/tutorial smoke
support.
- Added pipeline aggregation, health/liveness, drift acknowledgment,
blocker/carry-over, automation retry, stage automation environment, and
permission recovery behavior.
- Added the operator UI for pipeline index/board/item
detail/settings/review/learnings flows, including stage secrets,
automation controls, markdown/item descriptions, linked issue assets,
liveness banners, and source automation metadata.
- Refactored issue document frame rendering through the shared
`DocumentFrameHeader` component to keep document controls consistent
with the pipeline document surfaces.
- Kept this PR as the single base-branch review target for the current
pipeline branch.

## Verification

Current branch refresh:

- `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/pipelines-service.test.ts` — 31
passed
- `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/pipelines-routes.test.ts` — 19
passed
- `pnpm --filter ./server typecheck` — passed
- `pnpm --filter ./ui typecheck` — passed
- Verified Pipelines remains gated by `enablePipelines === true`:
sidebar item is hidden unless the flag is enabled, direct pipeline
routes redirect to `/dashboard` when disabled, and the Experimental
settings UI still has no Pipelines toggle.
- GitHub status checks on `df071c710646de625131064c3fb6588b5e97964a` —
all complete with no failing conclusions, including Actions, Socket,
Superagent/Security, and Greptile Review
- Greptile summary on `df071c710646de625131064c3fb6588b5e97964a` —
Confidence Score 5/5
- GitHub review-thread sweep — 0 unresolved Greptile threads

Previously recorded during branch development:

- Server pipeline service/route and aggregation tests
- Shared validator tests
- UI pipeline page/settings/item-detail/learnings/liveness tests
- Pipeline tutorial smoke path

## Risks

- High review surface: this is a large feature branch spanning database,
shared contracts, server behavior, CLI/docs, and UI.
- Migration ordering and schema compatibility need reviewer attention
because this branch has been kept current across multiple `master`
syncs.
- GitHub still reports merge state `BLOCKED` because the PR is awaiting
normal human review/branch-protection completion; all current status
checks are green.
- Branch-name checklist exception: this PR uses the pre-existing
requested branch name, which predates the current public-branch naming
rule. The PR title/body avoid internal issue references.

DottaandPaperclip b3c0fadd63 feat(routines): add date variable controls (#8655)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Scheduled routines can prompt agents with variables that are filled
in at dispatch time.
> - Existing routine variable handling supported plain text-like values,
but date inputs need a structured contract so routines can pass
consistent date values.
> - Operators also need date variables to be easy to configure and
override from the routine UI.
> - This pull request adds a date variable type across shared
validation, server dispatch, and UI editing/run dialogs.
> - The benefit is that routine authors can define date inputs once and
agents receive validated ISO-style date values when routines run.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #219

Feature request:

- Problem/motivation: Scheduled routines need first-class, typed date
variables so operators can configure dates without relying on free-form
text conventions.
- Proposed solution: Add an `x-date` routine variable type with shared
parsing/validation, server dispatch support, and UI date-picker controls
in routine variable editors and run dialogs.
- Alternatives considered: Continue treating dates as plain text, but
that leaves validation and formatting to individual operators and
agents.
- Roadmap alignment: This is a focused improvement to the completed
Scheduled Routines milestone and does not duplicate an active roadmap
item.

Related PR search:

- Searched existing PRs/issues for `routine date picker`, `date
variables`, and `scheduled routine date variable`; no direct duplicate
PR was found.

## What Changed

- Added the shared `x-date` routine variable contract, parsing,
defaults, and validation coverage.
- Extended routine dispatch to validate and pass date variable values.
- Added date input controls to the routine variable editor and routine
run variables dialog.
- Added focused tests for shared validation, server dispatch, and the UI
date controls.

## Verification

- `git diff --check public/master...HEAD`
- `pnpm run preflight:workspace-links && pnpm exec vitest run
packages/shared/src/routine-variables.test.ts
packages/shared/src/validators/routine.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/routines-service.test.ts
ui/src/components/RoutineRunVariablesDialog.test.tsx
ui/src/components/RoutineVariablesEditor.test.tsx`
  - 5 test files passed
  - 68 tests passed

## Risks

Low to medium risk. This adds a new routine variable type across
shared/server/UI paths, so the main risk is compatibility with existing
routine variable payloads. The change keeps existing variable types
intact and adds targeted validation tests for the new date behavior.

DottaandPaperclip 569b7affc4 [codex] Add bounded workspace overview (#8627)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The execution workspace subsystem powers project and workspace views
by listing runtime state, branch metadata, issue links, and status
summaries.
> - The existing workspace views relied on broad list data that can grow
expensive as a company accumulates many workspaces and linked issues.
> - That makes the Workspaces page and project workspace cards slower
than necessary because the UI does not always need the full workspace
detail payload up front.
> - This pull request adds a bounded overview contract for workspace
listings and moves the relevant UI surfaces to that cheaper path.
> - The benefit is faster workspace loading while preserving detail
fetches for pages that actually need full workspace data.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this change. Inline bug report follows
the repository bug template.

### What happened?

Workspace index-style screens can load too much execution workspace
detail before the user asks for it. Several UI surfaces used fuller
workspace data paths for summary displays, which can make workspace
loading slower as workspace history grows.

### Expected behavior

Overview screens should request a bounded summary payload, while detail
screens should keep using the full workspace detail endpoint.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Run Paperclip from source with enough execution workspace history to
make workspace lists non-trivial.
2. Open the Workspaces page or a project workspace summary card.
3. Observe that summary UI needs only bounded workspace metadata but can
depend on broader workspace payloads.

### Paperclip version or commit

`master` at the time this branch was prepared.

### Deployment mode

Local dev (`pnpm dev`)

## What Changed

- Added shared types, validators, and path constants for bounded
execution workspace overviews.
- Added server service and route support for overview queries with
bounded linked issue/runtime metadata.
- Updated workspace overview UI API calls, query keys, breadcrumbs,
quicklooks, close dialogs, project summaries, and detail links to
consume the cheaper overview shape where appropriate.
- Added regression coverage for the new server route/service behavior
and the UI overview consumers.
- Registered the new workspace overview route in the generated OpenAPI
spec.
- Kept overview totals aligned with the project join and preserved
project slug links in workspace headers.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/execution-workspaces-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/execution-workspaces-routes.test.ts
ui/src/api/execution-workspaces.test.ts
ui/src/components/ProjectWorkspaceSummaryCard.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/Workspaces.test.tsx`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck && pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/server typecheck && pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui
typecheck`
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/execution-workspaces-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/execution-workspaces-service.test.ts`
- `pnpm test:run:serialized -- --shard-index 1 --shard-count 4`

## Risks

Low to medium risk. The change introduces a new overview contract across
shared/server/ui layers, so the main risk is a mismatch between summary
and detail payload expectations. The added route/service/UI tests cover
the intended split, and full detail pages continue using the detail
path.

DottaandPaperclip ed65d08d57 [codex] Gate skill mutations with skills:create permission (#8616)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents and board users operate inside a company-scoped control plane
where permissions decide which mutating actions they can perform
> - Company skills are part of the reusable agent-company setup surface,
but skill mutation had been coupled to broader agent-creation authority
> - That coupling meant importing or managing skills required a
permission that also implies hiring power, which is broader than the
operation needs
> - Paperclip already has a grant-based permission vocabulary, so skill
mutation should be authorized through a dedicated `skills:create`
capability while preserving existing default behavior for trusted agents
> - This pull request adds the skill creation permission contract,
enforces it on company skill mutations, exposes it in agent permission
management, and documents the changed CLI/API expectations
> - The benefit is a narrower, auditable permission path for skill
import/create/update/delete flows without forcing agents to receive
broader agent-creation authority

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue is linked.

Problem: company skill mutation APIs were effectively tied to broader
agent creation authority. This PR splits skill mutation authorization
onto the public `skills:create` permission while keeping existing
default skill creation behavior for agents unless explicitly disabled.

Related public PR found during duplicate search: #5330. That PR uses an
older `canManageSkills` shape; this PR implements the `skills:create`
grant path instead.

## What Changed

- Added `skills:create` to shared permission constants and agent
permission types/validators as `canCreateSkills`.
- Backfilled default human/member role grants for `skills:create`.
- Updated company skill mutation routes to require board/user or agent
access to `skills:create`, while preserving legacy/default agent
behavior through `canCreateSkills` unless explicitly disabled.
- Updated agent permission update handling, UI permission controls,
duplicate-agent payloads, plugin SDK fixtures, and agent detail API
surfaces for `canCreateSkills`.
- Added regression coverage for skill route authorization, permission
schema/default behavior, invite grants, omitted permission updates, and
duplicate-agent payloads.
- Updated CLI and Paperclip skill documentation for the new skill
creation permission.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/agent-permissions-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/agent-permissions-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-skills-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/invite-join-grants.test.ts
ui/src/lib/duplicate-agent-payload.test.ts` — 5 files, 90 tests passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck && pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/server typecheck && pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui
typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm test:run ...changed files...` was attempted first, but the
stable wrapper rejects explicit file arguments; direct Vitest was used
for the same targeted files.

## Risks

- Moderate authorization risk: this changes the gate for company skill
mutations, so the tests cover board grant checks, agent explicit grant
checks, legacy default allowance, and explicit denial.
- Migration/backfill risk is low: the migration only grants
`skills:create` to existing human roles that already need broad
management capability.
- UI/API compatibility risk is low: `canCreateSkills` remains default-on
for full agent permissions, and the update validator preserves omitted
values so unrelated permission edits do not re-enable disabled skill
creation.

DottaandPaperclip 2dbaf4a7fa External object references across issue surfaces (#8512)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source control plane people use to coordinate
AI agents, issues, approvals, comments, and work products.
> - The involved subsystem is issue context: markdown links, issue
properties, related work, lists, filters, inbox/sidebar status, and
plugin-provided external context.
> - The gap is that URLs to external systems currently remain mostly
plain links, so humans and agents must manually open them to understand
status, identity, and liveness.
> - This matters because external work objects such as GitHub issues and
pull requests are part of the operational state of a Paperclip company.
> - The implementation keeps core provider-neutral: shared contracts,
storage, sync, routes, and UI surfaces live in core while providers can
contribute detection and status resolution.
> - This pull request adds the external object reference foundation,
GitHub provider support, issue-surface rendering, filters,
sidebar/list/inbox signals, and test/story coverage.
> - The benefit is that linked external work becomes inspectable
Paperclip context without hardcoding every provider directly into the
UI.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this work.

Feature request:

- Problem: URLs in Paperclip issues, comments, documents, and related
surfaces do not expose provider status or object identity inline.
- Proposed behavior: detect supported external object URLs, persist
normalized references, refresh provider status, and render concise
status-aware links across issue surfaces.
- Users affected: board users, agents, and maintainers who triage issues
containing external work links.
- Acceptance: external object references are company-scoped,
provider-extensible, visible in key issue surfaces, filterable where
relevant, and covered by focused shared/server/UI tests.

Related PR search:

- No open duplicate PRs found for `external object references`.
- Closed related prior attempt: #4556.

## What Changed

- Added shared external-object contracts, validators, status/liveness
helpers, and plugin protocol declarations.
- Added database schema and additive migrations for external objects,
source mentions, and display metadata.
- Added server services/routes for detecting, syncing, summarizing,
refreshing, and resolving external objects across issues, documents,
comments, projects, and plugins.
- Added a GitHub external-object provider plus plugin SDK authoring
docs.
- Wired UI presentation across markdown links, comments, issue chat,
documents, properties, related work, issue rows, filters, inbox/sidebar
badges, and Storybook stories.
- Rebasing cleanup: moved the branch onto current `master`, repaired
stale worktree provision config, hardened environment-sensitive
tests/mocks, and removed committed screenshot artifacts from the PR
branch to keep the reviewable file set below tool limits.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/external-objects.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/external-object-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/external-objects-service.test.ts
ui/src/components/ExternalObjectPill.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/external-objects.test.ts` passed after rebasing: 5 files, 56
tests.
- Historical branch verification before this PR creation included `pnpm
test:run`, `pnpm -r typecheck`, and `pnpm build`; this PR body does not
claim those were rerun after the final rebase.

## Risks

- Medium: this adds a new cross-surface sync path on
issue/document/comment writes. The implementation uses safe sync
wrappers so external-object failures warn instead of blocking core
mutations.
- Medium: the migrations introduce new tables and indexes. They are
additive and company-scoped.
- Medium: provider-specific URL parsing can miss or misclassify edge
cases. Shared canonicalization tests and provider tests cover current
GitHub shapes.
- Low: UI badge/filter behavior could add visual noise for object-heavy
issues; component tests and Storybook stories cover the intended
surfaces.

> Roadmap checked: `ROADMAP.md` references the plugin system as the
current extension path and does not list a duplicate core feature.
Related long-range docs discuss external references, work products,
preview URLs, and plugin extension points; this PR implements the scoped
external-object reference foundation.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-5 coding-agent runtime, with shell and GitHub CLI tool
use. Reasoning mode: medium. Exact deployed runtime model ID and context
window were not exposed in the environment.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 0b945f449b Make streamlined sidebar default to on (#8496)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The board UI has an experimental streamlined left navigation mode
that changes how projects and agents appear in the sidebar.
> - Today that mode is opt-in, so users keep seeing the classic
navigation unless they find and enable the experiment.
> - The requested product behavior is to make streamlined navigation the
default experience while keeping an explicit experiments opt-out.
> - This pull request flips the shared/server default, updates UI
consumers to treat only explicit `false` as classic mode, and covers
both the default-on path and opt-out behavior in tests.
> - The benefit is that new and legacy settings get the streamlined
sidebar by default without removing the classic-sidebar escape hatch.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #7645

Related: #8430 takes the broader route of removing the classic sidebar.
This PR intentionally keeps the opt-out path.

## What Changed

- Default `enableStreamlinedLeftNavigation` to `true` in shared
validation and server-side normalization.
- Preserve explicit stored `false` as the experiments opt-out for the
classic sidebar.
- Render the sidebar and experimental settings toggle as streamlined-on
unless the setting is explicitly `false`.
- Add regression coverage for loading/default streamlined sidebar
behavior and the opt-out patch from the experiments page.
- Remove internal issue identifiers from newly touched source comments
before publishing.

## Verification

- `git diff --check origin/master...HEAD` — passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-service.test.ts
ui/src/components/Sidebar.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/InstanceExperimentalSettings.test.tsx` — passed, 3 files /
27 tests.
- `pnpm build` — passed, with existing Vite/CSS/chunk-size warnings.
- `pnpm test:run` — failed in unrelated
`server/src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts`: the test `auto-detects
the default branch via symbolic-ref when origin/HEAD is set` creates a
temp repo on `main` then runs `git push -u origin main master`; `master`
does not exist in that temp repo. Summary: 1 failed, 214 passed, 1780
tests passed, 1 skipped.

## Risks

Low-to-medium behavioral risk: the default sidebar changes for users who
never explicitly set the experiment. Explicit `false` remains respected,
so users can still opt out via experimental settings.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 33353ce62b feat(skills): remove bundled paperclip-dev skill and retire required skill attribute (#7029)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Local adapters (Claude, Codex, Cursor, Gemini, Grok, OpenCode, Pi,
ACPX) ship bundled "skills" — opinionated Markdown prompt bundles
materialized into the agent's runtime
> - One of those bundled skills, `paperclip-dev`, existed to let agents
develop Paperclip itself; it has now moved to its own external repo and
no longer belongs in the core tree
> - The adapter skill model also carried a `required` / `requiredReason`
attribute plus a `paperclip_required` `AdapterSkillOrigin` variant, all
of which only existed to mark bundled skills as non-optional in the UI
and adapter sync logic
> - With `paperclip-dev` gone, no bundled skill is "required" anymore,
and the type / runtime surface for `required` is dead weight — but it is
computed at request time and never persisted, so a clean removal is safe
(no compatibility shim needed)
> - This pull request deletes `skills/paperclip-dev/` and removes every
trace of the `required` / `requiredReason` field and the
`paperclip_required` origin across shared types, validators,
adapter-utils, all eight local adapters, server routes, the
company-skills service, the UI, the storybook fixtures, and the test
suite
> - The benefit is a smaller, simpler adapter-skill surface: one origin
(`company_managed`) for managed bundled skills,
`resolvePaperclipDesiredSkillNames` collapses to "just the configured
desired set", and the AgentDetail skills tab no longer renders a
"Required by Paperclip" section that no longer applies

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

<!-- No existing public GitHub issue; describing the underlying work
inline (feature_request template fields). -->

**Summary**

Remove the bundled `paperclip-dev` skill (now maintained in its own
external repo) and retire the `required` / `requiredReason` skill
attribute and the `paperclip_required` skill origin, which only existed
to support it.

**Problem or motivation**

`paperclip-dev` is the only bundled skill that was ever marked
"required". Now that it lives in a separate repository, shipping it
inside the core tree is wrong, and the entire `required` surface (a type
field, a validator field, a synthesized `paperclip_required` origin, UI
"Required by Paperclip" section, and required-skill merging in the
desired-skills calculation) becomes dead weight. The `required` value is
computed at request time and never persisted, so it can be removed
cleanly without a migration or compatibility shim.

**Proposed solution**

Delete `skills/paperclip-dev/`, drop the `required` / `requiredReason`
fields and `paperclip_required` origin everywhere they are produced or
consumed, collapse managed-skill origin to a single `company_managed`
value, and simplify `resolvePaperclipDesiredSkillNames` to return only
the configured desired set.

**Alternatives considered**

Keeping the `required` attribute as a no-op for forward compatibility —
rejected because it is request-time only (nothing persists it), so
leaving it in place is pure dead surface area with no callers.

**Roadmap alignment**

Internal cleanup / dead-code removal that simplifies the adapter-skill
surface; it does not introduce or duplicate any planned core feature in
ROADMAP.md.

## What Changed

- Deleted bundled `skills/paperclip-dev/` (moved to a separate repo).
- Dropped `required`, `requiredReason`, and the `paperclip_required`
origin from `packages/shared/src/types/adapter-skills.ts`,
`packages/shared/src/validators/adapter-skills.ts`, and
`packages/adapter-utils/src/types.ts`.
- In `packages/adapter-utils/src/server-utils.ts`: removed
`readSkillRequired()`; dropped `required`/`requiredReason` from
`listPaperclipSkillEntries()`,
`normalizeConfiguredPaperclipRuntimeSkills()`,
`buildPersistentSkillSnapshot()`, and `PaperclipSkillEntry`; collapsed
`buildManagedSkillOrigin()` to always return `company_managed`;
simplified `resolvePaperclipDesiredSkillNames()` to return only the
configured desired set (signature preserved so adapter call sites are
untouched).
- Walked all eight local adapters (`acpx-local`, `claude-local`,
`codex-local`, `cursor-local`, `gemini-local`, `grok-local`,
`opencode-local`, `pi-local`) and removed every remaining
`requiredReason` / `paperclip_required` reference.
- `server/src/services/company-skills.ts`: dropped the `required =
sourceKind === "paperclip_bundled"` synthesis when listing runtime skill
entries.
- `server/src/routes/agents.ts`: removed required-skill merging from the
desired-skills calculation in the persist-config path and the
unsupported-snapshot path (keeping the current version-aware
`desiredSkillEntries` structure).
- `ui/src/pages/AgentDetail.tsx`: dropped required-based filters, the
required tooltip, and the entire "Required by Paperclip" section from
the agent skills tab; storybook fixtures in
`ui/storybook/stories/acpx-local.stories.tsx` cleaned up to match.
- Tests: deleted the `required: false` case in
`paperclip-skill-utils.test.ts` and the "keeps required bundled skills
installed" case in every `*-local-skill-sync.test.ts`;
`acpx-local-execute.test.ts`, `cursor-local-execute.test.ts`,
`cursor-local-skill-sync.test.ts`, `agent-skills-routes.test.ts`, and
`packages/adapter-utils/src/server-utils.test.ts` were updated to drop
removed fields and map `origin: "paperclip_required"` →
`"company_managed"`.
- `server/src/adapters/registry.ts`: two `as unknown as
ServerAdapterModule["..."]` casts on `hermesListSkills` /
`hermesSyncSkills` (matching the existing `executeHermesLocal` pattern).
`hermes-paperclip-adapter@0.2.0` still depends on the published
`@paperclipai/adapter-utils` which keeps the retired
`paperclip_required` variant; the cast bridges the
workspace-vs-published type mismatch at the registry seam and can drop
once hermes upgrades.

## Verification

Run from the workspace root:

```sh
grep -rn "skills/paperclip-dev" .
grep -rn "paperclip_required" --include="*.ts" --include="*.tsx" .
grep -rn "requiredReason" --include="*.ts" --include="*.tsx" .

pnpm -w typecheck
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run paperclip-skill-utils
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run skill-sync
```

The first three greps return only the explanatory comment in
`server/src/adapters/registry.ts` (no live `paperclip_required` /
`requiredReason` usage) and zero `skills/paperclip-dev` source hits.

Locally:

- `pnpm -w typecheck` → all packages this PR touches pass
(adapter-utils, shared, server, ui, cli, and the
cursor/gemini/opencode/pi adapters).
- Affected vitest suites pass: `paperclip-skill-utils`, `server-utils`,
all eight `*-local-skill-sync`, `agent-skills-routes`, and the
`acpx`/`cursor`/`pi` execute suites.

## Risks

- Behavioral shift in the agent skills UI: the "Required by Paperclip"
section disappears. No bundled skill is required anymore, so this only
affects environments that previously surfaced `paperclip-dev` as a
forced-on row; those installs will see the skill move into the regular
"company-managed" list (and be uninstalled on next sync unless
explicitly listed as desired).
- Existing agents may still have the string `"paperclip-dev"` in their
persisted `desiredSkills`. That entry is inert (no source for it to
install from); a one-time DB cleanup is out of scope. Low risk.
- Hermes adapter type bridge: two casts in `registry.ts` paper over a
type-only divergence between the workspace `@paperclipai/adapter-utils`
and the published version still pinned by
`hermes-paperclip-adapter@0.2.0`. Runtime behavior is unaffected because
the retired `paperclip_required` value is no longer produced by anything
in this tree. The casts can be removed once hermes upgrades its
dependency.

## Model Used

- Provider: Anthropic
- Model: Claude Opus 4.7 (`claude-opus-4-7`)
- Capability: agent tool use via Paperclip's `claude_local` adapter

Devin Foley 547463d3a2 refactor(environments): make execution environments instance-scoped (#8375)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the control plane for AI-agent companies, so execution
environment selection has to stay inspectable and predictable across
companies, agents, and runs.
> - The environment subsystem decides where an agent heartbeat actually
runs and how remote sandbox state is realized and restored.
> - That subsystem previously mixed company-scoped environment catalogs
with issue-level environment stamping, so a reassigned issue could keep
executing in the previous assignee's sandbox.
> - That behavior breaks the control-plane contract: changing the
assignee should change the executing agent/environment path unless there
is an explicit current override.
> - Fixing it cleanly required more than a narrow patch; the environment
model had to move to instance scope with a single inherited default and
per-agent override semantics.
> - This pull request rewires the schema, server/API surface, runtime
resolution, and UI around that model, then adds regression coverage for
cross-company inheritance and per-agent isolation.
> - The benefit is that environment choice now follows the approved
instance/agent configuration path instead of stale issue state, while
shared environments only need to be configured once per instance.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- No directly matching public GitHub issue or PR was found while
searching for this refactor.

### What happened?

Reassigning work between agents with different execution environments
could keep running in the previous sandbox because environment choice
was stamped onto the issue and outranked the current assignee. The same
subsystem also forced environment catalogs to be duplicated per company
even though the underlying execution environments were instance-wide
resources.

### Expected behavior

Execution should resolve through the current instance and agent
configuration path, with one instance-scoped environment catalog, one
instance default, optional per-agent override, and no stale issue-level
environment authority surviving reassignment.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Configure two agents to use different execution environments.
2. Assign an issue to the first agent so the issue records execution
state in that environment.
3. Reassign the same issue to the second agent and run another
heartbeat.
4. Observe that the pre-fix runtime can still sync or execute in the
original sandbox instead of the second agent's environment.

### Paperclip version or commit

Current `master` before this PR.

### Deployment mode

Self-hosted server.

### Installation method

Built from source (`pnpm dev` / `pnpm build`).

### Agent adapter(s) involved

- Claude Code
- Not adapter-specific (core bug in environment authority / resolution)

### Database mode

External Postgres.

### Access context

Both board reassignment and agent heartbeats were involved.

## What Changed

- Moved environments and their default selection contract to instance
scope in DB/shared types, including the migration that dedupes legacy
per-company environments and seeds the instance local default.
- Reworked environment CRUD/auth flows to use instance-scoped APIs and
added route/service coverage for instance-level environment management.
- Changed runtime resolution to prefer `agent default -> instance
default -> built-in local`, removed issue-level environment stamping
from the active execution path, and isolated sandbox/plugin leases by
`(executionWorkspaceId, agentId)`.
- Added environment env-var runtime precedence so environment-provided
values act as the baseline for agent execution.
- Moved the environment UI into instance settings and updated agent
configuration surfaces to reflect inherit/override behavior.
- Added regression coverage for instance-default inheritance across
companies and for the new runtime resolution behavior.
- Fixed a rebase-only duplicate `enableTaskWatchdogs` flag regression in
instance settings types/validators/services so the branch typechecks
cleanly on current `master`.
- Updated stale server tests so CI matches the shipped instance-scoped
environment contract.

## Verification

- `git diff --check`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db typecheck`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/environment-runtime-driver-contract.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/agent-permissions-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-instance-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/execution-workspace-policy.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-plugin-environment.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-routes.test.ts`

## Risks

- The migration changes environment scope and dedupes existing rows, so
installs with unusual legacy environment combinations should be reviewed
carefully during upgrade.
- Remote execution behavior now depends on instance-default inheritance
semantics instead of issue-level stamping, so any remaining code paths
that still assume issue-scoped environment authority would surface as
follow-up bugs.
- This PR includes both server/runtime behavior and UI relocation, so
reviewers should watch for authorization edge cases around instance
settings and environment management.

> I checked [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md). This work fits the existing
Cloud / Sandbox agents direction as a bug-fix/refactor to current
behavior, not a new parallel product surface.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex coding agent in this Paperclip/Codex session; GPT-5-class
tool-using model with code execution and shell access. The exact backend
model ID is not exposed to the session runtime.

a71c4b6782 [codex] feat(watchdog): add task watchdog control plane (#8339)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The task lifecycle and recovery subsystems decide when agent work is
still productive, stalled, or ready for review.
> - Existing recovery paths can observe stopped or incomplete work, but
there was no first-class per-task watchdog model with scoped review
permissions.
> - Watchdog follow-ups also need strict boundaries so
recovery/status-only runs cannot mutate approvals or perform deliverable
work.
> - This pull request adds the task watchdog data model, API/service
layer, scheduler/review flow, adapter wake context, UI configuration
surfaces, and docs.
> - The branch has been rebased onto current `paperclipai/paperclip`
`master`; the watchdog migration is now ordered after master's latest
migrations as `0104_issue_watchdogs`.
> - The benefit is a more explicit task-review loop that preserves
Paperclip's single-assignee and governance invariants while making
stalled work easier to route.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No linked GitHub issue. Paperclip task:
[PAP-11275](/PAP/issues/PAP-11275).

## Problem or motivation

Task recovery needs a first-class watchdog path that can inspect stopped
work and create scoped follow-ups without bypassing normal task
ownership. Board/UI users need a way to configure watchdogs on tasks and
see watchdog-related live work. Recovery/status-only runs must remain
limited to status reporting and must not create approvals, link
approvals, or submit approval comments.

## Proposed solution

Add a task-watchdog data model, scheduler/classifier, scoped mutation
guard, adapter wake context, API/UI configuration surfaces, and
documentation so watchdog agents can review stopped task subtrees under
explicit boundaries.

## Alternatives considered

Reuse the existing recovery-action flow only. That would keep
stopped-work detection implicit, make per-task watchdog assignment
harder to expose in the UI, and would not provide a durable
scoped-review issue for stalled task trees.

## Roadmap alignment

This is Paperclip control-plane lifecycle infrastructure for task
execution and recovery. I checked `ROADMAP.md`; this PR does not
duplicate an existing planned core item.

## What Changed

- Added issue watchdog schema, migration, shared contracts, validators,
CRUD API, and service support.
- Added task watchdog scheduler/classifier behavior, scoped mutation
enforcement, adapter wake context, and default watchdog mandate
guidance.
- Added UI surfaces for configuring watchdogs on new/existing tasks,
viewing watchdog activity, and exposing the experimental setting.
- Added docs for the user-facing task watchdog workflow and
implementation semantics.
- Gated new-task watchdog setup behind `enableTaskWatchdogs` and blocked
cheap status-only recovery runs from approval mutations.
- Rebased onto current `master` and renumbered the idempotent watchdog
migration from the branch-local `0102_issue_watchdogs` slot to
`0104_issue_watchdogs`.
- Addressed Greptile feedback by loading watchdog classifier input with
a recursive subtree query and centralizing the watchdog origin-kind
constant.
- Added and updated focused server/UI tests for watchdog routes,
scheduler/classifier behavior, scope boundaries, live task visibility,
settings, and new issue dialog behavior.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/task-watchdogs-scheduler.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/task-watchdogs-classifier.test.ts`
- `pnpm vitest run
server/src/__tests__/approval-routes-idempotency.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-agent-mutation-ownership-routes.test.ts`
- `pnpm vitest run ui/src/components/NewIssueDialog.test.tsx`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- `git diff --check`
- Verified the PR diff does not include `pnpm-lock.yaml` or
`.github/workflows`.

## Risks

- Medium risk: this introduces a new task lifecycle surface touching DB
schema, server routes/services, adapter wake context, and UI task
configuration.
- Watchdog scheduling behavior depends on the new experimental setting
and runtime context checks behaving consistently across local and
production agents.
- The watchdog migration is idempotent (`IF NOT EXISTS` /
duplicate-object guards) so users who tried the previous branch-local
migration number should not get duplicate-object failures.
- CI and the second Greptile pass are pending after the latest
review-fix push.

DottaandPaperclip 7069053a1f [codex] Add ask issue work mode (#8334)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Issue work mode controls how a task starts and how the conversation
composer frames the operator's intent.
> - Paperclip already supports standard agent execution and planning
mode, but there is no lightweight mode for asking a question without
immediately implying execution or plan drafting.
> - That gap makes low-commitment clarification workflows look like
normal task execution.
> - This pull request adds an explicit Ask mode and threads it through
shared contracts, server heartbeat context, and the issue composer UI.
> - The benefit is that operators can create or switch a task into a
question-oriented mode while preserving existing agent and planning
flows.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this change. Inline feature request
follows the repository feature request template.

### Subsystem affected

Cross-cutting: `packages/shared`, `server/`, and `ui/`.

### Problem or motivation

Issue conversations currently distinguish standard agent work from
planning work, but question-first conversations do not have a clear
public mode in the shared contract or UI. Operators who want to ask an
agent a focused question have to use standard mode, which can imply
normal task execution, or planning mode, which asks for a plan rather
than an answer.

### Proposed solution

Add Ask as a first-class issue work mode. It should be selectable from
issue creation and issue chat, cycle alongside Standard and Planning
from the keyboard shortcut/menu, appear distinctly in composer styling,
and be included in heartbeat context so agents know to answer directly
instead of executing or drafting a plan.

### Alternatives considered

- Keep using standard mode for questions: rejected because it does not
communicate answer-only intent to the agent or the UI.
- Reuse planning mode for questions: rejected because planning mode asks
for a plan and is semantically different from asking a question.
- Add only local UI copy: rejected because the mode needs to be
represented in the shared contract and server heartbeat context to be
reliable.

### Roadmap alignment

This is a focused issue-workflow improvement. `ROADMAP.md` was checked
and no duplicate planned core work was found.

### Additional context

Related public searches performed before opening this PR:

- GitHub PR search for `"ask mode" repo:paperclipai/paperclip`
- GitHub issue search for `"ask mode" repo:paperclipai/paperclip`
- GitHub PR search for `"work mode" "ask" repo:paperclipai/paperclip`

No duplicate PR was found.

## What Changed

- Added `ask` to the shared issue work-mode contract and validation
coverage.
- Included issue work mode in heartbeat context summaries so agents can
see standard, planning, and ask state.
- Added Ask mode metadata, styling, composer tone handling, and
selection/cycling behavior in the issue chat/new issue UI.
- Updated focused tests for shared validators, heartbeat context, and
affected UI work-mode flows.

## Verification

- `NODE_ENV=test pnpm exec vitest run
ui/src/components/ChatComposer.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueChatThread.test.tsx
ui/src/components/NewIssueDialog.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/work-mode-meta.test.ts`
- `NODE_ENV=test pnpm exec vitest run
packages/shared/src/validators/issue.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-context-summary.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issues-service.test.ts
ui/src/components/ChatComposer.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueChatThread.test.tsx
ui/src/components/NewIssueDialog.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/work-mode-meta.test.ts ui/src/pages/IssueDetail.test.tsx`

The broader targeted command passed 8 test files / 245 tests.

Visual reference for Standard/Planning/Ask composer states:
https://gist.github.com/cryppadotta/714d8590bac55500a65e7e16de5bb4b8

It emitted an expected warning from an existing server test fixture
about a missing run-log fixture while verifying derived issue comment
metadata.

## Risks

Low to moderate risk. This adds a new enum value that crosses shared,
server, and UI contracts. Existing standard and planning modes are
preserved, but any downstream code assuming only two non-terminal work
modes may need to handle `ask`.

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 GPT-5 Codex coding agent in Paperclip CodexCoder mode, with
shell, git, GitHub connector, and local test execution tools. Context
window and exact hosted model snapshot are not exposed in this runtime.

6f9801a46b feat(ui): NUX rework behind enableConferenceRoomChat experimental flag — capsule onboarding, conference-room chat, unified composer (#8000)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The first-run experience (onboarding wizard) and the chat surfaces
(conference-room/board chat, task threads, composers) are the product's
front door — they decide whether a new operator understands "hire
agents, give them work, review results" in the first five minutes
> - Today those surfaces feel ticket-y and form-like: the wizard is a
static multi-step form that ends in an anticlimactic "Launch" screen,
the task composer and board chat behave differently from each other, and
agent-feed issue quicklooks misbehave (multiple flyouts open at once,
cards jump on hover)
> - We wanted to iterate toward a conversational, team-centric NUX — but
without risking the workflows of everyone already running Paperclip
> - This PR reworks the NUX behind a new default-OFF
`enableConferenceRoomChat` experimental flag: a capsule-motif onboarding
wizard that builds your team as you answer, a conference-room chat
surface, one shared ChatComposer across surfaces, brand-accurate status
chips, and feed-quicklook fixes — with the pre-existing UI
fork-and-frozen as `*Classic` components that flag-OFF users keep
> - The benefit is a complete, testable modern NUX that anyone can opt
into from Settings → Experimental, with zero default behavior change and
a clean path to either graduate or drop the experiment

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No pre-existing GitHub issue — feature description per
`feature_request.yml`:

- **Problem / motivation:** Paperclip's onboarding wizard and chat
surfaces grew up as separate ticket-centric forms. New users get a
form-filling experience rather than the feeling of standing up a team;
the board chat and task threads use different composers with different
affordances; the agent feed's issue quicklook can stack multiple
popovers and shifts cards on hover.
- **Proposed solution:** A coherent NUX experiment behind one
experimental flag (`enableConferenceRoomChat`, Settings → Experimental,
default OFF): capsule onboarding wizard with an evolving team capsule,
conference-room chat, unified `ChatComposer`, team-centric copy, brand
status chips, quicklook single-flight fix. Flag-OFF users get the exact
pre-experiment UI via frozen `*Classic` forks, verified by an on/off
parity test matrix.
- **Alternatives considered:** (a) incremental unflagged restyling —
rejected: the changes interlock across surfaces and would drip risk into
every release; (b) a separate app shell / route for the new NUX —
rejected: too much divergence, the flag + classic-fork pattern keeps the
diff reviewable and reversible.
- **Roadmap alignment:** `ROADMAP.md` lists **CEO Chat** ("a
lighter-weight way to talk to leadership agents... should still resolve
to real work objects"). This experiment is groundwork in that direction
(conference-room chat resolves to issues/tasks via the same composer
used in task threads) and does not change the core task-and-comments
model.

Related PRs found in the dedup search (same area, none duplicate this
work — they target the classic wizard, which this PR intentionally
leaves intact and mergeable):

- #5385 — Coach-driven onboarding: conversational entry +
agent-companies package import
- #5378 — Onboarding wizard: reusable adapter picker + probe card
- #6636 — ui(onboarding): friendly error surface + retry for the wizard
- #7005 — fix(onboarding): explicitly await first-task wake
- #2616 — fix: restore workspace directory config in onboarding wizard

## What Changed

- **Experimental flag plumbing** — `enableConferenceRoomChat` in shared
types/validators, server instance-settings service + API, Settings →
Experimental card with explicit enable/disable copy
- **Onboarding wizard** — classic wizard forked and frozen
(`OnboardingWizardClassic`); flag-ON variant is a 5-step capsule wizard
with a persistent evolving `AgentCapsule` (gradient/glow motif),
team-centric reframed copy, and a typing-dots intro (hardened with
fake-timer tests)
- **Conference-room chat** — flag-ON board-chat surface with agent
bubble name/icon headers and copy/vote/timestamp action rows
(`AgentBubbleActionRow`)
- **Unified composer** — shared `ChatComposer` adopted across surfaces;
translucent surface + scroll-mask removal; "Agent mode"/"Plan mode"
relabels; no-assignee confirmation `AlertDialog` (new
`ui/alert-dialog.tsx` primitive); `@task` reference picker +
linkification in mentions
- **Agent feed** — single-flight issue-quicklook store (one popover at a
time), flyouts open to the left, removed hover translate-y jitter
- **Status chips** — brand-accurate task status chips behind the flag
(light/dark, 1px borders per paperclip.ing/brand)
- **Tests** — flag on/off parity matrix across IssueDetail,
NewIssueDialog, Sidebar, wizard, gate components; component tests for
all new pieces
- **Merge with `master`** — one conflict in
`ui/src/components/IssueChatThread.tsx`, resolved by keeping master's
new `AssigneeChip`/`HandoffWakeRow`/`RunStatusBadge` components inside
the flag-gated metadata-row chrome (details in commit `21a5642a`);
post-merge fixes: vitest 4 mock typing in `MarkdownEditor.test.tsx`,
flag hook made safe for provider-less mounts (master's new isolated
component tests)
- **Branch hygiene** — internal design wireframes/mockups stripped
before the PR (they live in the Paperclip issue threads)
- No user-facing documentation changes required: the flag is
intentionally experimental and self-described in the Settings card; no
existing docs reference the affected surfaces

## Verification

- `pnpm run typecheck` — green across the workspace (ui, server, shared,
plugins)
- Full UI suite (`vitest run` in `ui/`, clean worktree at this HEAD):
**1593/1595 passing, 223/224 files** — the 2 remaining failures are in
`src/components/artifacts/ArtifactCard.test.tsx` and **fail identically
on pristine `origin/master`** (pre-existing upstream, unrelated to this
branch)
- Full server suite (`vitest run` in `server/`, same clean worktree):
results in PR checks; flag plumbing covered by instance-settings tests
- Targeted post-merge resolution check: `IssueChatThread`,
`IssueChatThreadSystemNotice`, `IssueDetail`, `Sidebar`,
`ConferenceRoomChatGate`, `OnboardingWizardVariant`, `NewIssueDialog`,
`InstanceExperimentalSettings`, `MarkdownEditor` — 172/172 passing
- Manual walkthrough: flag OFF (default) → onboarding wizard, task
thread, board chat, composer all render the classic UI; flag ON via
Settings → Experimental → capsule wizard, conference-room chat, unified
composer, status chips active
- Screenshots: see below

Capsule onboarding wizard walkthrough screenshots (flag ON) are attached
to the Paperclip design/implementation threads; the wizard requires a
fresh instance so it is captured via the e2e harness
(`tests/e2e/nux-phase4-screenshots.spec.ts`).


## Risks

- **Large surface, but gated:** all new behavior sits behind
`enableConferenceRoomChat`, default OFF; flag-OFF rendering is locked by
frozen `*Classic` forks plus an on/off parity test suite
- **Classic forks are frozen at the fork point (`e3aada1d`):** master
features added to the live thread component after that point (assignee
handoff chips, run status badge, composer mention coach) render in the
flag-ON path; the flag-OFF task thread keeps the fork-point behavior
until the experiment graduates (forks deleted) or is dropped (forks
restored as canonical). Called out for reviewer attention.
- **Merge-conflict resolution in `IssueChatThread.tsx`** (commit
`21a5642a`) deserves reviewer eyes: master's new handoff/run-status
components were kept; the base toast-style no-assignee flow remains
replaced by the AlertDialog flow introduced on this branch
- Schema/server changes are additive (one optional boolean instance
setting); no migrations of existing data

## Model Used

- Claude (Anthropic) via Claude Code running in the Paperclip agent
harness (agent: ClaudeCoder)
- Branch implemented across multiple agent sessions on Claude Opus-class
models with extended thinking + tool use (file edits, shell, Playwright
screenshots); merge/PR session model ID as reported by the harness:
`claude-fable-5` (Claude Code CLI)
- All code was agent-authored and board-reviewed through Paperclip issue
threads (plans, wireframes, confirmations) before merging
