DottaandPaperclip	8ff812cdde	feat(chat): deliver proactive task messages to agent chats (#18374 ) ## Thinking Path > - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for work. > - Agent Chat gives each person a persistent conversation with each agent. > - Tasks and routines produce results outside that conversation. > - Those runs need a safe way to bring a requested result back to the person. > - The server must select the agent's own chat and check the source task's access rules. > - This pull request adds proactive chat messages and unread indicators. > - People can see the result, open its source task, and reply in the same chat. ## Linked Issues or Issue Description Subsystem affected Server, native runner tools, shared contracts, database, and UI. Problem or motivation An agent can report progress on a task or comment on an authorized task. It cannot send a routine result to its own standing chat with the responsible person. A morning review routine therefore cannot leave a visible digest in that person's chat. Proposed solution Add `send_chat_message({body, idempotencyKey})` and `POST /api/agents/me/chat/messages`. The server selects the company, agent, and responsible person from the active run. It saves an attributed comment and audit record in one transaction. The chat shows a source-task link and per-person unread state. Alternatives considered A destination parameter on a generic comment tool would expose unnecessary routing authority. A new delivery worker would add another durable delivery path. This change uses a dedicated tool and the existing comment and live-event paths. Roadmap alignment This extends the experimental Agent Chat capability in `ROADMAP.md`. The existing `enableAgentChat` setting controls it. Related public work: Refs #13282, Refs #13283, and Refs #14408. Searches for proactive chat and unread chat found no duplicate PR. ## What Changed - Add a focused messaging service shared by the native tool and HTTP route. It checks current run ownership, execution mode, recipient membership, task access, and task privacy. - Reuse the canonical company/agent/person conversation. Save the comment and audit record together. Keep task completion and chat execution separate from delivery. - Add source-task provenance and source-scoped retry keys. Identical retries return the saved receipt. Changed content returns a conflict. - Enforce the conversation's fixed agent at the shared comment-write boundary. Keep normal reply cancellation and session checks. - Add chat unread state, accessible agent dots, aggregate Chat indicators, and visible-message read cutoffs. Refresh through existing live events. - Add the request-key constraint, native tool contracts, documentation, capability maps, stories, and regression coverage. ## Verification - Local delivery/security proof: all 38 proactive-message cases pass. Eight credential-scope regressions and four quota regressions fail against the prior source. The repaired delivery and canonical cross-issue cap suites pass all 49 cases; all 31 OpenAPI tests, server typecheck, and capability-map checks pass. The shared per-run cap covers native and HTTP sends, mixed ordinary mutations, concurrent last-slot contention, and retry/recovery without double charging. - Credential tests preserve the authenticated person and authorizer; reject bridge/test credentials and persisted skill-test runs after task-mode changes; and recheck API-key revocation, scope, and responsible person after destination locking. The earlier delivery/native-authority suites passed all 74 cases before the four quota additions. - Four PostgreSQL contention cases cover native and HTTP sends plus retries during a native chat mutation. All four deadlock against the earlier source and pass with destination-before-source/run locking. Recovery and human-reply delivery enqueue only the human comment; a proactive digest never wakes the chat agent. - Passed 108 companion conversation, native-authority, and OpenAPI tests; 112 runner catalog/workflow-report tests; 47 completion-delivery tests; and 25 project-handoff tests. Focused runner tests cover native tool availability without generic API tools. - All 327 affected UI tests, UI typecheck, token gates, and catalog checks pass. The read hook retries at most three times, respects server retry delay, coalesces only seen cutoffs, recovers on reconnect, and cancels on scope changes. - Real browser journeys with a deterministic process agent verify routine-to-chat delivery, first-chat creation, unread state across reload, the source link, secondary chat navigation, and a follow-up reply referring to the digest. This does not qualify live GitHub retrieval or model output quality. - The Storybook showcase uses production components with deterministic network fixtures. Rendered interactions pass for the landing, ordinary read success, transient read recovery, and persistent failure after bounded retries. Both Chat navigation variants update from two unread chats to one while only Kodi's dot clears. Mobile and light variants were reviewed. The existing Coordinator Recents label contrast finding is unchanged; no Linux visual baseline archive exists. - Current master's independent sandbox migration retains 0418. Regenerated the feature migration as 0419 from the combined schema and retained exactly the newest five snapshots; numbering/safety, replay, and schema-drift checks pass. - Workspace typecheck and build passed before PR preparation; canonical server/UI typechecks passed again on the combined tree. Migration `0419_slippery_impossible_man.sql` passes safety and schema drift checks on disposable PostgreSQL, including interrupted index repair, concurrent migrators, one-time owner read-state backfill, preserved receipts, and two SQL replays. A default five-second local snapshot comparison timed out; a diagnostic 30-second run passed without drift. - Earlier failures are retained in the record: full local `pnpm test:run` and broad shards encountered embedded-PostgreSQL startup, timing, and provider-recovery failures. Thirteen selected external-channel cases pass in isolation on the original and changed sources; an unordered comment-row assertion now explicitly orders both reads. The earlier route registry, native tool count, runner catalog, and accessible Chat badge-name failures were fixed and passed full remote CI on `920b3bb7db`. - Repeated managed-skill server8 failures came from CI's newer synthetic merge: its Cloud guard correctly rejected the old local-disk fixture. Master independently repaired the fixture in #18385; this branch keeps that repair unchanged. All 57 managed-skill and Cloud prerequisite cases pass on the combined tree, and that fixture has no remaining PR diff. - Current reviewed head `dc16f314739a6d977bed21cb1446d0e80a541578`: Greptile 5/5 with no findings, Superagent security assessment passed, advisory Paperclip Review 5/5 with no findings, and zero open review threads. All 55 current-head check runs pass, with five expected skips and the advisory review neutral at 5/5; Snyk also passes. No checks are pending or failing. Protected squash auto-merge is enabled and is waiting for required code-owner approval. A normal exact-head merge was refused by the base-branch policy; no admin bypass was used. The previous head's Superagent quota finding is fixed and covered above. ## Risks - Chat remains company-visible. Delivery rejects a source task with private-task, project, or ancestor restrictions. - Read state uses a comment timestamp cutoff. The server retains database precision and never moves a read receipt backward. - The new unique constraint changes comment query planning. An existing regression now uses an explicit row order. The migration builds the unique index concurrently, then takes a brief table lock to attach it. It uses the existing top-level migration and interrupted-index recovery path. - The upgrade backfills missing chat-owner read-state rows at the latest existing agent comment. Existing read receipts remain intact. New chats can still be unread before the human participates. - Quota observation commits atomically with delivery. A rejected send rolls back its attempted denial audit row and any first-chat creation; the canonical warning remains in server logs, and previously spent quota remains enforced. Identical/conflicting retries and receipt recovery spend no extra slot. - This version delivers in-app only. It adds no external-channel, push, or email delivery. - Local full-suite acceptance remains limited by the failures recorded above. The feature stays behind `enableAgentChat`. ## Model Used OpenAI Codex. PR preparation and CI work used `gpt-6.1-sol` with tool use and code execution.

scotttong scotttong Claude Opus 5.5	1c07b5903b	feat: Chat leads the left nav, agent work beside chats, and a Combined Inbox + Task List flag (#15100 ) ## Thinking Path > - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for work > - The left nav is the main way people move between tasks, the inbox, and Agent Chat > - The nav has separate Inbox and Tasks rows that show overlapping work, and Chat is one row among many > - The side panel beside a chat shows the conversation's own artifacts, not the work the agent did > - People want Chat to be easy to find, and they want one place for their task views > - This pull request moves Chat to the top of Work, shows the agent's tasks and artifacts beside each chat, and adds an experimental flag that folds Inbox into Tasks > - The benefit is a shorter nav and a chat view that shows what the agent is working on. Both changes stay off until an operator enables them ## Linked Issues or Issue Description Refs #14706 (the secondary Agent Chat navigation this change builds on) Refs #14848 (reopen the last visited agent chat) Subsystem affected UI navigation (left nav, mobile tab bar), Agent Chat side panel, task list and inbox, and the company artifacts API. Problem or motivation Inbox and Tasks are two nav rows for overlapping work. Chat sits in the top group with no clear home. The chat rail lists only agents you already talked to, so you cannot see your other teammates there. The side panel beside a chat shows only the conversation's own artifacts. It does not show the tasks and files the agent made. Proposed solution With Agent Chat on, Chat leads the Work section and the rail lists every eligible agent. The chat side panel opens on the agent's tasks as cards, and the agent's artifacts are available from +. A new experimental flag, Combined Inbox + Task List, makes Inbox a set of views inside Tasks. Alternatives considered Rebuilding the inbox inside the task list. Instead, `/issues` hosts the existing Inbox component for inbox views and the existing task list for status views, so all inbox behaviour stays the same. Roadmap alignment Agent Chat (ROADMAP.md, "Agent Chat (including CEO Chat)"). All changes are behind experimental flags that are off by default. ## What Changed - Agent Chat nav (streamlined shell): Chat is the first row of Work, not a top-group row. Workspaces leaves the nav while Agent Chat is on. The mobile tab bar is Home · Chat · + · Tasks · Agents. The legacy shell keeps master's top-group Chat row. - Chat rail: `AgentConversationsSidebar` lists every eligible agent. The open chat is first, then conversations by recent activity, then the rest of the roster alphabetically. Terminated agents and agents you left are omitted unless you have history with them. The picker still marks only real conversations as "Open chat". - Chat side panel: a new default Tasks tab shows one card per task the agent created, was assigned, commented on, or acted on, newest first. It has the task list's filter popover and a sort control. + → Artifacts shows the agent's artifacts as cards. Cards open in a new tab. Agent Chat off keeps the old Artifacts tab. - Artifacts API: `GET /api/companies/:companyId/artifacts` accepts `agentId`. The filter applies to documents, work products, and attachments by the agent each result is attributed to. The shared validator and the UI client carry the new parameter, and the OpenAPI entry picks it up from the shared schema. - Combined Inbox + Task List flag (`enableCombinedInboxTasks`, off by default): new card in Settings > Experimental. The Inbox row goes away and its badge moves to Tasks. A Views menu on `/issues` covers Mine, Unread, Blocked, Recent, Everything, All, Active, Backlog, and Done. Bare `/issues` opens the last-used view (default Mine). Links that carry `assignee`, `workspace`, `participantAgentId`, or `q` open All so the filter is kept. `/inbox/` and `/issues/{all,active,backlog,done,recent}` redirect to the matching view. `/inbox/requests` stays its own page. - Task detail breadcrumb:* the view key now decides the source, so quick-archive still works after a reload from an inbox view. - Docs: `doc/PRODUCT.md` and `doc/SPEC.md` describe the chat rail, the chat side panel, and the new flag. ## Verification - `cd ui && npx vitest run --no-file-parallelism src/components/chat src/components/task-side-panel/TaskSidePanel.test.tsx src/components/AgentConversationsSidebar.test.tsx src/components/Sidebar.test.tsx src/components/SidebarCompanyMenu.test.tsx src/components/Layout.test.tsx src/pages/AgentChats.test.tsx src/pages/InstanceExperimentalSettings.test.tsx src/lib/task-views.test.ts src/lib/issueDetailBreadcrumb.test.ts src/pages/Inbox.test.tsx src/pages/Issues.test.tsx src/App.test.tsx src/App.activity-routing.test.tsx src/components/MobileBottomNav.test.tsx src/components/CommandPalette.test.tsx`: 20 files, 356 tests pass. - `cd server && npx vitest run src/__tests__/company-artifacts-service.test.ts`: 13/13 pass, including the new agent-filter test across all three artifact sources. - The new rail test fails against the unmodified rail. - `pnpm check:token-gates`: all gates clean. - Manual: enable Agent Chat in Settings > Experimental. Open Chat. The rail lists all agents. Open a chat. The side panel shows the agent's tasks. Use + → Artifacts to see the agent's artifacts. Then enable Combined Inbox + Task List. The Inbox row goes away, and Tasks shows a Views menu. - Snapshot baselines are intentionally not updated. See `doc/design/DECISION-SHEET.md`, "Per-change snapshot verification demoted to dormant (Jul 13 2026)". ## Risks - With both flags off, the app behaves like master. The only exception is the API: it accepts a new optional query parameter. - With Agent Chat on, the rail can list many agents in a large company. It uses the agent list the app already loads, and search filters it. - The Tasks panel reads at most 200 recently updated tasks per agent and says so when it reaches the limit. The Artifacts panel reads at most 500 of the agent's artifacts. - Combined Inbox + Task List changes what bare `/issues` opens for people who enable it. Deep links with a task filter still open All. ## Model Used - Claude (Anthropic), model ID `claude-opus-5-5`, through Claude Code with tool use (shell, file edit, test runs). Extended thinking was enabled. ## Checklist - [x] I have included a thinking path that traces from project context to this change - [x] I have specified the model used (with version and capability details) - [x] I have checked ROADMAP.md and confirmed this PR does not duplicate planned core work - [x] I have searched GitHub for duplicate or related PRs and linked them above - [x] I have either (a) linked existing issues with `Fixes: #` / `Closes #` / `Refs #` OR (b) described the issue in-PR following the relevant issue template - [x] I have not referenced internal/instance-local Paperclip issues or links (only public GitHub `#NNN` / `github.com/paperclipai/paperclip` URLs) - [x] My branch name describes the change (e.g. `docs/...`, `fix/...`) and contains no internal Paperclip ticket id or instance-derived details - [x] I have run tests locally and they pass - [x] I have added or updated tests where applicable - [x] I have updated relevant documentation to reflect my changes - [x] I have considered and documented any risks above - [ ] All Paperclip CI gates are green - [ ] Greptile is 5/5 with no open P2s, recommendations, or follow-ups - [x] I will address all Greptile and reviewer comments before requesting merge 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) --------- Co-authored-by: scotttong <squadbot000@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-10-04 02:13:46 -07:00
DottaandPaperclip	1b48e73e0b	feat(ui): add secondary navigation for agent chat (#14706 ) ## Thinking Path > - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for work. > - Agent Chat already provides a persistent conversation with each agent. > - Its shortcuts share the primary navigation and do not give chats a dedicated place. > - People need to find agents, start a chat, and switch conversations without moving the page layout. > - This pull request adds a secondary chat sidebar and a landing page around the existing chat surface. > - The same conversation, composer, history, and context panel remain in use. ## Linked Issues or Issue Description Refs #13283 and #13420. This extends the existing experimental Agent Chat navigation after review of the component and page stories. It supports the CEO Chat roadmap item through the existing task-backed conversation model. Subsystem affected The board UI and the company-scoped conversation list API. Current behavior Chat shortcuts sit inside the primary navigation. There is no dedicated landing page with a searchable conversation list. A separate landing header also moves the sidebar when an agent is selected. Proposed behavior Show a Chat entry in primary navigation. Keep a searchable agent sidebar beside the chat content. The plus button starts or reopens the current user's single conversation with that agent. Keep the header and sidebar in the same positions before and after selection. Reason and benefit People can find agents and return to persistent conversations without leaving the chat area or creating duplicate chats. Breaking changes The experimental chat navigation changes. Explicitly adding a chat now resolves its conversation immediately. Direct visits to unused agent chat URLs remain read-only. The existing per-agent routes and message contracts remain compatible. No database migration is required. ## What Changed - Add an account- and company-scoped conversation list endpoint with the existing access checks, feature gate, and OpenAPI entry. - Add the live secondary sidebar, landing page, avatars, search, loading states, errors, and retry controls. - Make the agent picker wait for chat creation and display failures. Existing agents reopen the same conversation. A dismissed selection cannot close a reopened picker or navigate over a newer choice. - Preserve recent-activity ordering and terminated agents’ chat history. Scope live list refreshes to the current user’s conversation events. A failed historical-agent lookup leaves healthy chats usable and offers a focused retry. - Keep the sidebar and header stable across chat routes. Keep mobile selection in the navigation drawer. - Use the production components in Storybook. Prepare the theme and mobile viewport before mounting the page to avoid the startup flash. - Update product documentation, the design guide, and navigation tests. Replace old browser expectations for stars and recent shortcuts with persistent conversation and layout coverage. ## Verification - `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and `pnpm check:token-gates` pass after rebasing onto master. - Focused UI tests pass, including 105 sidebar, picker, and live-update checks after review fixes. The 33 conversation service and route tests and 10 OpenAPI checks pass, including ownership, feature gating, and concurrent creation. - The full local test run passed 14,163 server tests before three environment or timeout failures. The embedded Postgres startup, connector socket, and native runner failures all passed direct reruns. - Browser test-drive verification covers a real provider reply, add and reopen, persisted history after reload, no-match search recovery, mobile drawer dismissal, and top-aligned context panels. - Browser measurements confirm that the sidebar has the same position and dimensions on the landing page and an agent conversation. - Storybook builds and its add-and-reopen interaction passes. - The revised browser regression passes locally against a freshly built throwaway instance. It covers stable sidebar geometry, add/reopen uniqueness, drafts, search, history, and terminated-agent history after reload. The full CI browser suite also passes. - Latest commit `b323577d9523180104df4000eaceedea2772608c`: all 54 completed checks pass, including the complete server/workspace/browser suites, aggregate verification, build/typecheck, security scans, and canary packaging. The two Storybook jobs are skipped by their workflow conditions. [CI run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36714052050). - Greptile reviewed this same commit at 5/5 with no remaining actionable findings; all review threads are resolved. - Reviewer path: enable Agent Chat, click Chat, use plus to choose an agent, send a message, switch away, and reopen that agent. One conversation must remain, with its history intact. ## Risks - The new sidebar lists persistent conversations instead of starred and recent shortcuts. - Chat creation is asynchronous. Errors stay visible in the picker, and delayed responses cannot navigate into a previous company or account. - The shell adjustment is limited to chat routes and preserves the existing conversation implementation. ## Model Used OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, code execution, and browser tools. The session does not expose the exact API model ID or context-window size. ## Checklist - [x] I have included a thinking path that traces from project context to this change - [x] I have specified the model used (with version and capability details) - [x] I have checked ROADMAP.md and confirmed this PR does not duplicate planned core work - [x] I have searched GitHub for duplicate or related PRs and linked them above - [x] I have either (a) linked existing issues with `Fixes: #` / `Closes #123` / `Refs #123` OR (b) described the issue in-PR following the relevant issue template - [x] I have not referenced internal/instance-local Paperclip issues or links (only public GitHub `#NNN` / `github.com/paperclipai/paperclip` URLs) - [x] My branch name describes the change (e.g. `docs/...`, `fix/...`) and contains no internal Paperclip ticket id or instance-derived details - [x] I have run tests locally and they pass - [x] I have added or updated tests where applicable - [x] I have updated relevant documentation to reflect my changes - [x] I have considered and documented any risks above - [x] All Paperclip CI gates are green - [x] Greptile is 5/5 with no open P2s, recommendations, or follow-ups - [x] I will address all Greptile and reviewer comments before requesting merge --------- Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>	2026-09-30 07:35:32 -05:00

feat(chat): deliver proactive task messages to agent chats (#18374 )

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agent Chat gives each person a persistent conversation with each
agent.
> - Tasks and routines produce results outside that conversation.
> - Those runs need a safe way to bring a requested result back to the
person.
> - The server must select the agent's own chat and check the source
task's access rules.
> - This pull request adds proactive chat messages and unread
indicators.
> - People can see the result, open its source task, and reply in the
same chat.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Server, native runner tools, shared contracts, database, and UI.

**Problem or motivation**

An agent can report progress on a task or comment on an authorized task.
It cannot send a routine result to its own standing chat with the
responsible person. A morning review routine therefore cannot leave a
visible digest in that person's chat.

**Proposed solution**

Add `send_chat_message({body, idempotencyKey})` and `POST
/api/agents/me/chat/messages`. The server selects the company, agent,
and responsible person from the active run. It saves an attributed
comment and audit record in one transaction. The chat shows a
source-task link and per-person unread state.

**Alternatives considered**

A destination parameter on a generic comment tool would expose
unnecessary routing authority. A new delivery worker would add another
durable delivery path. This change uses a dedicated tool and the
existing comment and live-event paths.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the experimental Agent Chat capability in `ROADMAP.md`. The
existing `enableAgentChat` setting controls it. Related public work:
Refs #13282, Refs #13283, and Refs #14408. Searches for proactive chat
and unread chat found no duplicate PR.

## What Changed

- Add a focused messaging service shared by the native tool and HTTP
route. It checks current run ownership, execution mode, recipient
membership, task access, and task privacy.
- Reuse the canonical company/agent/person conversation. Save the
comment and audit record together. Keep task completion and chat
execution separate from delivery.
- Add source-task provenance and source-scoped retry keys. Identical
retries return the saved receipt. Changed content returns a conflict.
- Enforce the conversation's fixed agent at the shared comment-write
boundary. Keep normal reply cancellation and session checks.
- Add chat unread state, accessible agent dots, aggregate Chat
indicators, and visible-message read cutoffs. Refresh through existing
live events.
- Add the request-key constraint, native tool contracts, documentation,
capability maps, stories, and regression coverage.

## Verification

- Local delivery/security proof: all 38 proactive-message cases pass.
Eight credential-scope regressions and four quota regressions fail
against the prior source. The repaired delivery and canonical
cross-issue cap suites pass all 49 cases; all 31 OpenAPI tests, server
typecheck, and capability-map checks pass. The shared per-run cap covers
native and HTTP sends, mixed ordinary mutations, concurrent last-slot
contention, and retry/recovery without double charging.
- Credential tests preserve the authenticated person and authorizer;
reject bridge/test credentials and persisted skill-test runs after
task-mode changes; and recheck API-key revocation, scope, and
responsible person after destination locking. The earlier
delivery/native-authority suites passed all 74 cases before the four
quota additions.
- Four PostgreSQL contention cases cover native and HTTP sends plus
retries during a native chat mutation. All four deadlock against the
earlier source and pass with destination-before-source/run locking.
Recovery and human-reply delivery enqueue only the human comment; a
proactive digest never wakes the chat agent.
- Passed 108 companion conversation, native-authority, and OpenAPI
tests; 112 runner catalog/workflow-report tests; 47 completion-delivery
tests; and 25 project-handoff tests. Focused runner tests cover native
tool availability without generic API tools.
- All 327 affected UI tests, UI typecheck, token gates, and catalog
checks pass. The read hook retries at most three times, respects server
retry delay, coalesces only seen cutoffs, recovers on reconnect, and
cancels on scope changes.
- Real browser journeys with a deterministic process agent verify
routine-to-chat delivery, first-chat creation, unread state across
reload, the source link, secondary chat navigation, and a follow-up
reply referring to the digest. This does not qualify live GitHub
retrieval or model output quality.
- The Storybook showcase uses production components with deterministic
network fixtures. Rendered interactions pass for the landing, ordinary
read success, transient read recovery, and persistent failure after
bounded retries. Both Chat navigation variants update from two unread
chats to one while only Kodi's dot clears. Mobile and light variants
were reviewed. The existing Coordinator Recents label contrast finding
is unchanged; no Linux visual baseline archive exists.
- Current master's independent sandbox migration retains 0418.
Regenerated the feature migration as 0419 from the combined schema and
retained exactly the newest five snapshots; numbering/safety, replay,
and schema-drift checks pass.
- Workspace typecheck and build passed before PR preparation; canonical
server/UI typechecks passed again on the combined tree. Migration
`0419_slippery_impossible_man.sql` passes safety and schema drift checks
on disposable PostgreSQL, including interrupted index repair, concurrent
migrators, one-time owner read-state backfill, preserved receipts, and
two SQL replays. A default five-second local snapshot comparison timed
out; a diagnostic 30-second run passed without drift.
- Earlier failures are retained in the record: full local `pnpm
test:run` and broad shards encountered embedded-PostgreSQL startup,
timing, and provider-recovery failures. Thirteen selected
external-channel cases pass in isolation on the original and changed
sources; an unordered comment-row assertion now explicitly orders both
reads. The earlier route registry, native tool count, runner catalog,
and accessible Chat badge-name failures were fixed and passed full
remote CI on `920b3bb7db`.
- Repeated managed-skill server8 failures came from CI's newer synthetic
merge: its Cloud guard correctly rejected the old local-disk fixture.
Master independently repaired the fixture in #18385; this branch keeps
that repair unchanged. All 57 managed-skill and Cloud prerequisite cases
pass on the combined tree, and that fixture has no remaining PR diff.
- Current reviewed head `dc16f314739a6d977bed21cb1446d0e80a541578`:
Greptile 5/5 with no findings, Superagent security assessment passed,
advisory Paperclip Review 5/5 with no findings, and zero open review
threads. All 55 current-head check runs pass, with five expected skips
and the advisory review neutral at 5/5; Snyk also passes. No checks are
pending or failing. Protected squash auto-merge is enabled and is
waiting for required code-owner approval. A normal exact-head merge was
refused by the base-branch policy; no admin bypass was used. The
previous head's Superagent quota finding is fixed and covered above.

## Risks

- Chat remains company-visible. Delivery rejects a source task with
private-task, project, or ancestor restrictions.
- Read state uses a comment timestamp cutoff. The server retains
database precision and never moves a read receipt backward.
- The new unique constraint changes comment query planning. An existing
regression now uses an explicit row order. The migration builds the
unique index concurrently, then takes a brief table lock to attach it.
It uses the existing top-level migration and interrupted-index recovery
path.
- The upgrade backfills missing chat-owner read-state rows at the latest
existing agent comment. Existing read receipts remain intact. New chats
can still be unread before the human participates.
- Quota observation commits atomically with delivery. A rejected send
rolls back its attempted denial audit row and any first-chat creation;
the canonical warning remains in server logs, and previously spent quota
remains enforced. Identical/conflicting retries and receipt recovery
spend no extra slot.
- This version delivers in-app only. It adds no external-channel, push,
or email delivery.
- Local full-suite acceptance remains limited by the failures recorded
above. The feature stays behind `enableAgentChat`.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex. PR preparation and CI work used `gpt-6.1-sol` with tool
use and code execution. The earlier implementation also used Codex, but
its exact model ID was not recorded in the visible session. The
context-window size was not provided.

feat: Chat leads the left nav, agent work beside chats, and a Combined Inbox + Task List flag (#15100 )

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The left nav is the main way people move between tasks, the inbox,
and Agent Chat
> - The nav has separate Inbox and Tasks rows that show overlapping
work, and Chat is one row among many
> - The side panel beside a chat shows the conversation's own artifacts,
not the work the agent did
> - People want Chat to be easy to find, and they want one place for
their task views
> - This pull request moves Chat to the top of Work, shows the agent's
tasks and artifacts beside each chat, and adds an experimental flag that
folds Inbox into Tasks
> - The benefit is a shorter nav and a chat view that shows what the
agent is working on. Both changes stay off until an operator enables
them

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14706 (the secondary Agent Chat navigation this change builds on)
Refs #14848 (reopen the last visited agent chat)

**Subsystem affected**
UI navigation (left nav, mobile tab bar), Agent Chat side panel, task
list and inbox, and the company artifacts API.

**Problem or motivation**
Inbox and Tasks are two nav rows for overlapping work. Chat sits in the
top group with no clear home. The chat rail lists only agents you
already talked to, so you cannot see your other teammates there. The
side panel beside a chat shows only the conversation's own artifacts. It
does not show the tasks and files the agent made.

**Proposed solution**
With Agent Chat on, Chat leads the Work section and the rail lists every
eligible agent. The chat side panel opens on the agent's tasks as cards,
and the agent's artifacts are available from +. A new experimental flag,
Combined Inbox + Task List, makes Inbox a set of views inside Tasks.

**Alternatives considered**
Rebuilding the inbox inside the task list. Instead, `/issues` hosts the
existing Inbox component for inbox views and the existing task list for
status views, so all inbox behaviour stays the same.

**Roadmap alignment**
Agent Chat (ROADMAP.md, "Agent Chat (including CEO Chat)"). All changes
are behind experimental flags that are off by default.

## What Changed

- **Agent Chat nav (streamlined shell):** Chat is the first row of Work,
not a top-group row. Workspaces leaves the nav while Agent Chat is on.
The mobile tab bar is Home · Chat · + · Tasks · Agents. The legacy shell
keeps master's top-group Chat row.
- **Chat rail:** `AgentConversationsSidebar` lists every eligible agent.
The open chat is first, then conversations by recent activity, then the
rest of the roster alphabetically. Terminated agents and agents you left
are omitted unless you have history with them. The picker still marks
only real conversations as "Open chat".
- **Chat side panel:** a new default Tasks tab shows one card per task
the agent created, was assigned, commented on, or acted on, newest
first. It has the task list's filter popover and a sort control. **+ →
Artifacts** shows the agent's artifacts as cards. Cards open in a new
tab. Agent Chat off keeps the old Artifacts tab.
- **Artifacts API:** `GET /api/companies/:companyId/artifacts` accepts
`agentId`. The filter applies to documents, work products, and
attachments by the agent each result is attributed to. The shared
validator and the UI client carry the new parameter, and the OpenAPI
entry picks it up from the shared schema.
- **Combined Inbox + Task List flag (`enableCombinedInboxTasks`, off by
default):** new card in Settings > Experimental. The Inbox row goes away
and its badge moves to Tasks. A Views menu on `/issues` covers Mine,
Unread, Blocked, Recent, Everything, All, Active, Backlog, and Done.
Bare `/issues` opens the last-used view (default Mine). Links that carry
`assignee`, `workspace`, `participantAgentId`, or `q` open All so the
filter is kept. `/inbox/*` and
`/issues/{all,active,backlog,done,recent}` redirect to the matching
view. `/inbox/requests` stays its own page.
- **Task detail breadcrumb:** the view key now decides the source, so
quick-archive still works after a reload from an inbox view.
- **Docs:** `doc/PRODUCT.md` and `doc/SPEC.md` describe the chat rail,
the chat side panel, and the new flag.

## Verification

- `cd ui && npx vitest run --no-file-parallelism src/components/chat
src/components/task-side-panel/TaskSidePanel.test.tsx
src/components/AgentConversationsSidebar.test.tsx
src/components/Sidebar.test.tsx
src/components/SidebarCompanyMenu.test.tsx
src/components/Layout.test.tsx src/pages/AgentChats.test.tsx
src/pages/InstanceExperimentalSettings.test.tsx
src/lib/task-views.test.ts src/lib/issueDetailBreadcrumb.test.ts
src/pages/Inbox.test.tsx src/pages/Issues.test.tsx src/App.test.tsx
src/App.activity-routing.test.tsx
src/components/MobileBottomNav.test.tsx
src/components/CommandPalette.test.tsx`: 20 files, 356 tests pass.
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/company-artifacts-service.test.ts`: 13/13 pass, including
the new agent-filter test across all three artifact sources.
- The new rail test fails against the unmodified rail.
- `pnpm check:token-gates`: all gates clean.
- Manual: enable Agent Chat in Settings > Experimental. Open Chat. The
rail lists all agents. Open a chat. The side panel shows the agent's
tasks. Use **+ → Artifacts** to see the agent's artifacts. Then enable
Combined Inbox + Task List. The Inbox row goes away, and Tasks shows a
Views menu.
- Snapshot baselines are intentionally not updated. See
`doc/design/DECISION-SHEET.md`, "Per-change snapshot verification
demoted to dormant (Jul 13 2026)".

## Risks

- With both flags off, the app behaves like master. The only exception
is the API: it accepts a new optional query parameter.
- With Agent Chat on, the rail can list many agents in a large company.
It uses the agent list the app already loads, and search filters it.
- The Tasks panel reads at most 200 recently updated tasks per agent and
says so when it reaches the limit. The Artifacts panel reads at most 500
of the agent's artifacts.
- Combined Inbox + Task List changes what bare `/issues` opens for
people who enable it. Deep links with a task filter still open All.

## Model Used

- Claude (Anthropic), model ID `claude-opus-5-5`, through Claude Code
with tool use (shell, file edit, test runs). Extended thinking was
enabled.

feat(ui): add secondary navigation for agent chat (#14706 )

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agent Chat already provides a persistent conversation with each
agent.
> - Its shortcuts share the primary navigation and do not give chats a
dedicated place.
> - People need to find agents, start a chat, and switch conversations
without moving the page layout.
> - This pull request adds a secondary chat sidebar and a landing page
around the existing chat surface.
> - The same conversation, composer, history, and context panel remain
in use.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13283 and #13420. This extends the existing experimental Agent
Chat navigation after review of the component and page stories. It
supports the CEO Chat roadmap item through the existing task-backed
conversation model.

**Subsystem affected**

The board UI and the company-scoped conversation list API.

**Current behavior**

Chat shortcuts sit inside the primary navigation. There is no dedicated
landing page with a searchable conversation list. A separate landing
header also moves the sidebar when an agent is selected.

**Proposed behavior**

Show a Chat entry in primary navigation. Keep a searchable agent sidebar
beside the chat content. The plus button starts or reopens the current
user's single conversation with that agent. Keep the header and sidebar
in the same positions before and after selection.

**Reason and benefit**

People can find agents and return to persistent conversations without
leaving the chat area or creating duplicate chats.

**Breaking changes**

The experimental chat navigation changes. Explicitly adding a chat now
resolves its conversation immediately. Direct visits to unused agent
chat URLs remain read-only. The existing per-agent routes and message
contracts remain compatible. No database migration is required.

## What Changed

- Add an account- and company-scoped conversation list endpoint with the
existing access checks, feature gate, and OpenAPI entry.
- Add the live secondary sidebar, landing page, avatars, search, loading
states, errors, and retry controls.
- Make the agent picker wait for chat creation and display failures.
Existing agents reopen the same conversation. A dismissed selection
cannot close a reopened picker or navigate over a newer choice.
- Preserve recent-activity ordering and terminated agents’ chat history.
Scope live list refreshes to the current user’s conversation events. A
failed historical-agent lookup leaves healthy chats usable and offers a
focused retry.
- Keep the sidebar and header stable across chat routes. Keep mobile
selection in the navigation drawer.
- Use the production components in Storybook. Prepare the theme and
mobile viewport before mounting the page to avoid the startup flash.
- Update product documentation, the design guide, and navigation tests.
Replace old browser expectations for stars and recent shortcuts with
persistent conversation and layout coverage.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and `pnpm check:token-gates` pass
after rebasing onto master.
- Focused UI tests pass, including 105 sidebar, picker, and live-update
checks after review fixes. The 33 conversation service and route tests
and 10 OpenAPI checks pass, including ownership, feature gating, and
concurrent creation.
- The full local test run passed 14,163 server tests before three
environment or timeout failures. The embedded Postgres startup,
connector socket, and native runner failures all passed direct reruns.
- Browser test-drive verification covers a real provider reply, add and
reopen, persisted history after reload, no-match search recovery, mobile
drawer dismissal, and top-aligned context panels.
- Browser measurements confirm that the sidebar has the same position
and dimensions on the landing page and an agent conversation.
- Storybook builds and its add-and-reopen interaction passes.
- The revised browser regression passes locally against a freshly built
throwaway instance. It covers stable sidebar geometry, add/reopen
uniqueness, drafts, search, history, and terminated-agent history after
reload. The full CI browser suite also passes.
- Latest commit `b323577d9523180104df4000eaceedea2772608c`: all 54
completed checks pass, including the complete server/workspace/browser
suites, aggregate verification, build/typecheck, security scans, and
canary packaging. The two Storybook jobs are skipped by their workflow
conditions. [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36714052050).
- Greptile reviewed this same commit at 5/5 with no remaining actionable
findings; all review threads are resolved.
- Reviewer path: enable Agent Chat, click Chat, use plus to choose an
agent, send a message, switch away, and reopen that agent. One
conversation must remain, with its history intact.

## Risks

- The new sidebar lists persistent conversations instead of starred and
recent shortcuts.
- Chat creation is asynchronous. Errors stay visible in the picker, and
delayed responses cannot navigate into a previous company or account.
- The shell adjustment is limited to chat routes and preserves the
existing conversation implementation.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, code execution, and browser
tools. The session does not expose the exact API model ID or
context-window size.
