Nicky LeachandPaperclip 01b51dc0e5 fix(runtime): stop Live badge and Working shimmer after task teardown (#10985)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The task list and the chat views show a Live badge and a Working
shimmer for an issue that has an active run.
> - A finished task kept the Live badge and the Working shimmer after
the run ended and the sandbox stopped.
> - The user interface reads run liveness from the
`heartbeat_runs.status` row. The run finalizer writes the terminal
status in a step that is separate from the agent `status=done` update.
When the sandbox or the run process stops between the two steps,
`heartbeat_runs.status` stays `running` forever.
> - A run row that stays `running` makes a finished task look
perpetually Live, and the user interface has no guard for an issue that
already reached a terminal status.
> - This pull request closes the invariant "environment lease released
implies the run is terminal" on the server, and adds a user interface
guard that suppresses live state for a terminal issue.
> - The benefit is that a finished task stops showing Live and Working,
both at the source (the run row) and at the surface (the badge and the
shimmer).

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Bug description**

- A completed task kept the Live badge and the Working shimmer after its
run ended and the sandbox was torn down.

**Steps to reproduce**

- Run an agent task to completion. Let the sandbox tear down while the
run finalizer is between the `status=done` update and the terminal
run-status write.
- Open the task list or the chat view for the finished task.

**Expected behavior**

- A finished task shows no Live badge and no Working shimmer.

**Actual behavior (before this change)**

- The finished task showed the Live badge and the Working shimmer
because its `heartbeat_runs.status` row stayed `running`.

This pull request supersedes the two separate pull requests #10954
(frontend) and #10955 (backend). It carries all of their changes for the
same race.

## What Changed

Server:

- Run teardown terminalizes a still-running or still-queued run before
it releases the environment lease. It writes `succeeded` when the issue
already reached `done`, `cancelled` when the issue is `cancelled`, and
`interrupted` otherwise. It never overwrites a status that another path
already made terminal.
- The recovery stale-lock sweep terminalizes an orphaned running run to
`interrupted` after it confirms the process and the sandbox are both
gone. It requires recorded process metadata, so it never terminalizes a
live run, a queued run, or a scheduled retry.
- Each terminal transition writes a run event.
- The stale-lock sweep continues and clears the lock when the audit
write fails. It logs the failure loudly.
- New server tests cover both invariants.

User interface:

- A shared guard suppresses the Live badge and the Working shimmer when
the issue status is terminal.
- The guard keeps non-terminal `queued` and `running` issues live.
- The guard prefers the newest issue live-status snapshot.
- New user interface tests cover the guard and the snapshot preference.

## Verification

Server:

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/plugin-sdk ensure-build-deps && tsc
--noEmit` in `server/` — 0 errors.
- `pnpm --filter server test
heartbeat-run-lease-release-terminalization.test.ts
recovery-stale-issue-lock-sweep.test.ts` — 12 tests pass.

User interface:

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` — 0 errors.
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/lib/liveIssueIds.test.ts
ui/src/lib/issue-chat-messages.test.ts` — 40 tests pass.

## Risks

- Low risk. The server change only forces a still-live run row to a
terminal status when the lease releases or when the recovery sweep
confirms the process is dead. It never overwrites an existing terminal
status, and it guards the recovery path with process metadata to avoid
terminalizing a live run.
- The user interface change is additive. The guard only suppresses live
state for a terminal issue and keeps queued and running issues live.
- No database migration. No change to any external endpoint.

656ecfa585 fix(server): keep Date fields intact through secret redaction; harden chat notice timestamps (#10984)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The task chat thread renders issue comments, system notices, and run
transcripts
> - The server routes comment payloads through the run-secret redaction
walker before it sends them
> - The walker rebuilds each object with `Object.entries`, and this
collapses `Date` instances to `{}`
> - The chat renderer then calls `.toISOString()` on an invalid date and
throws, and the thread falls back to the error banner
> - This pull request keeps `Date` instances intact in redacted
responses and makes the renderer safe against bad timestamps
> - The benefit is that task threads with system notices render
correctly again

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened**

Task threads that contain a system notice showed the banner "Chat
renderer hit an internal state error." in place of the conversation.
This occurred on many tasks.

**Expected behavior**

The thread renders all comments and system notices with correct
timestamps.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Open a task that has at least one system notice comment (for example
a "Workspace ready" notice).
2. `GET /api/issues/{id}/comments` returns `createdAt: {}` for every
comment because the secret-redaction walker collapses `Date` objects.
3. The system-notice row calls `new Date({}).toISOString()`. This throws
`RangeError: Invalid time value` and trips the thread error boundary.

**Version / deployment**

Regression from #9934 (`e43f187ca`). It applies to all deployments that
include that commit.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/run-secret-redaction.ts`:
`redactRegisteredSecretValues` now returns `Date` instances as-is. Dates
hold no redactable text, and the `Object.entries` rebuild turned them
into `{}`.
- `ui/src/components/IssueChatThread.tsx`: the system-notice row formats
its timestamp with a new `toValidIsoString` helper. A value that does
not parse as a date now degrades to "no timestamp" instead of a render
crash.
- Regression tests at three layers:
- Walker unit tests: `Date` values survive with and without registered
secret values.
- Route test: `GET /issues/:id/comments` serializes `createdAt` /
`updatedAt` as ISO strings.
- Render test: a system notice with a malformed `createdAt` renders
without the error boundary.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run --root server
src/__tests__/run-secret-redaction.test.ts` — 5 passed.
- `npx vitest run --root server
src/__tests__/issue-comment-redaction.test.ts` — 4 passed (embedded
Postgres route test).
- `cd ui && npx vitest run src/components/IssueChatThread.test.tsx
src/components/IssueChatThreadSystemNotice.test.tsx
src/lib/issue-chat-messages.test.ts` — 121 passed.
- Each new test was run against the unfixed code and failed there, which
confirms it guards the regression.
- A local sweep rendered 47 real issue threads through
`IssueChatThread`: 7 tripped the boundary before the fix, 0 after.

## Risks

- Low risk. The server change only preserves `Date` objects that the
walker destroyed before. String redaction behavior does not change, and
the registry-key stripping does not change.
- The UI change only affects the timestamp of system-notice rows and
omits it when the value is invalid.

## Model Used

- Claude Fable 5 (`claude-fable-5`), Anthropic. Agentic coding session
with tool use (file edits, shell, Vitest). No extended-context or
special reasoning mode.

DottaandClaude Fable 5 c2b41bb7cd fix(issues): quiet missing-disposition warnings while a live continuation is running (#10899)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - When an agent run ends without recording a disposition, Paperclip
raises a "missing disposition" handoff so the work does not silently
stall
> - The server already tracks whether such an issue has a live
continuation (a running or queued run, or a queued wake) in
`successfulRunHandoff.hasLiveContinuation`
> - But no UI surface read that flag, so an issue that an agent was
actively working on still showed the "This task still needs a next step"
banner, a loud thread warning, and "Needs next step" badges
> - This pull request makes every missing-disposition complaint respect
liveness: warn only when no live agent is on the issue and it is really
stuck
> - The benefit is that users see the warning only when action is
needed, and the noise disappears while an agent is already handling the
issue

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this bug. Description follows the
bug-report template:

**What happened?**

An issue that a live agent run was actively working on showed the
"missing disposition" warning banner, a loud thread notice, and "Needs
next step" badges at the same time. The API payload for that issue
showed `successfulRunHandoff.required: true` together with
`hasLiveContinuation: true` and a `liveRunId`, but the UI ignored the
liveness fields.

**Expected behavior**

The missing-disposition warning appears only when the issue has no live
run or queued wake. A live agent records a disposition when its run
ends. Paperclip complains only if the run ends and no disposition
exists.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Let a run finish on an in-progress issue without a disposition.
Paperclip raises the handoff and queues a corrective wake.
2. Open the issue page while the corrective run (or any new run) is
live.
3. See the banner, the badges, and the loud thread notice — all visible
while the agent works.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Current `master` (reproduced at commit 6ffe9df842).

**Deployment mode**

Self-hosted development instance.

## What Changed

- `isSuccessfulRunHandoffRequired` (ui lib) returns `false` while a live
continuation exists. This quiets the Kanban card badge and the
issues-list badge. Exception: when the only continuation is a
not-yet-promoted scheduled retry, the notice stays visible so the
**Retry now** control stays reachable.
- `IssueBlockedNotice` also checks the real-time live-run set
(`liveIssueIds`). A run that starts after the issue payload was fetched
hides the banner at once.
- `IssueChatThread` derives an effective handoff state from the live
runs it already tracks. The loud "Missing issue disposition" thread
notice folds into the quiet collapsed row while a continuation is live,
and unfolds if the run ends without a disposition.
- Server: `hydrateSuccessfulRunHandoffLiveness` now hydrates escalated
handoffs too. The blocked-inbox `missing_disposition` attention is
suppressed for escalated handoffs with a live run or wake. This matches
the existing required-state suppression.

## Verification

- `cd ui && npx vitest run src/components/IssueBlockedNotice.test.tsx
src/components/IssueChatThreadSystemNotice.test.tsx
src/components/IssueChatThread.test.tsx` — 106 tests pass, including 6
new tests for the live/stale/scheduled-retry matrix
- `cd ui && npx vitest run src/components/IssuesList.test.tsx
src/components/KanbanBoard.test.tsx src/lib` — pass
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/issue-blocker-attention.test.ts
src/__tests__/issue-list-assignee-filter-routes.test.ts
src/services/recovery/successful-run-handoff.test.ts
src/__tests__/attention-service.test.ts` — pass, including new
escalated-liveness cases
- `pnpm typecheck` clean in `ui` and `server`; `node
scripts/check-token-gates.mjs` clean
- Manual check: a live issue's API payload showed `required: true` with
`hasLiveContinuation: true` and a `liveRunId` while the banner was still
on screen; with this change that state renders no complaint

## Risks

- Behavioral shift only; no schema or migration changes. All complaints
reappear as soon as the continuation stops without a disposition, so
nothing can get lost permanently.
- A queued wake counts as a live continuation. If a wake sits queued for
a long time, the warning stays hidden for that time. The blocked-inbox
path already behaved this way; the UI now matches it.
- The scheduled-retry carve-out keeps the current Retry-now workflow
intact.

## Model Used

with extended thinking and tool use (file edit, shell, test execution).

DottaandClaude Opus 5 e8ae5286eb feat(issues): explain cross-task agent writes with attribution, audit receipts, and actionable denials (#10843)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents write to tasks they do not own. They comment, they change
fields, and the control plane now permits this by default for
standard-trust agents on any task they can read
> - This makes a task thread ambiguous. A reader sees a comment from an
agent that is not the assignee, but no surface says whose authority that
write rode
> - The same gap applies to field edits. The activity stream named the
verb, but it did not show the before value, the after value, or the
reason the write was permitted
> - The remaining refusals are also opaque. An agent that hits a wall
receives a 403 with no boundary name, no actor who can act, and no
sanctioned path. One real incident spent a full detour to find the
workaround
> - This pull request adds the three surfaces that make open cross-task
writes legible: an attribution chip, a field-level audit receipt, and an
actionable denial contract shared by the API and the UI
> - The benefit is that a reader can answer "who did this, on whose
authority, and was it allowed?" on the task itself, and a blocked writer
is told what to do next

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists for this work, so the enhancement is described
here.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Cross-task agent writes are permitted, but they are not explained. A
task thread can hold comments from agents that are not the assignee, and
the activity stream can hold field changes made by those agents. Neither
surface names the responsible user behind the write. When a write is
refused, the error text does not name the boundary or the way forward.

**Subsystem affected**

Issue detail UI (comment thread and activity stream), the issue write
authorization responses in the server, and the shared copy contract that
both consume.

**Current behavior**

- An agent comment on a task the agent does not own looks the same as an
assignee comment.
- An `issue.updated` activity row states the verb only. It does not show
the field-level before and after values, the responsible user, or the
authorization reason.
- A refused write returns a short message such as an ownership error.
The message does not state which rule fired, who is able to perform the
action, or which alternative path is sanctioned.

**Proposed behavior**

- An agent comment on a task the agent does not own carries a chip that
reads "for {user}". The chip names the responsible user. Its tooltip
states that the author is not the assignee and cannot exceed that user's
permissions.
- Each `issue.updated` row shows a receipt: the changed fields with
before and after values, the responsible user, and the authorization
reason. This applies to board edits as well as agent edits.
- Each refusal states three things: the boundary that fired, who is able
to act, and the sanctioned path. The API error body and the in-app
notice use the same words, because both read one shared contract.

Related pull requests, found by searching this repository:

- Refs #10837 — merged. It added the default-open cross-task write rule,
the comment attribution data, and the per-run containment cap that this
pull request makes visible.
- Refs #10114 — open. It proposes a narrower authorization change in the
same area.
- Refs #7998 — open. It proposes append-only cross-assignee comments as
an alternative to opening writes.

## What Changed

- Adds `packages/shared/src/issue-write-denial.ts`. This is one copy
contract for eight ways an issue write can be refused: not visible,
responsible-user ceiling, responsible user unavailable, excluded actor
class, assignee run lock, per-run cross-task cap, missing run context,
and rejected attribution. Each entry names the boundary, who can act,
and the sanctioned path.
- Maps server authorization decisions onto that contract in
`server/src/routes/issues.ts` and
`server/src/services/cross-issue-influence-limit.ts`. The flattened
`error` string carries all three obligations, and `details.code` lets
the UI render the same words. The two cap codes keep the names they
already ship under.
- Adds `CommentAttributionChip`. It renders "for {user}" beside the
author name on agent comments where the author is not the assignee. It
renders nothing when no responsible user is recorded, so older rows stay
clean. It is wired into both `IssueChatThread` and the flagged
`TaskChatThread` redesign.
- Adds `IssueFieldChangeReceipt`. It renders the change receipt under
`issue.updated` rows in the activity stream. Ids resolve to agent and
user names where the directory is loaded. Server-truncated text is
labelled as a preview, so the receipt never implies that it shows a
whole value.
- Adds `IssueWriteDenialNotice`. It renders the shared copy in the app,
keyed off the denial events the server logs on a task.
- Adds a public `/ux-lab/cross-issue-collaboration` page. It renders all
three surfaces and their edge cases for review without a seeded thread.
This follows the existing `ux-lab` pages.

## Verification

Automated, all green:

```
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared exec vitest run src/issue-write-denial.test.ts        # 17 tests
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run src/components/IssueWriteDenialNotice.test.tsx \
  src/components/IssueFieldChangeReceipt.test.tsx src/components/CommentAttributionChip.test.tsx \
  src/lib/issue-change-receipt.test.ts src/lib/comment-attribution.test.ts                # 46 tests
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run src/__tests__/cross-issue-influence-limit.test.ts \
  src/__tests__/issue-comment-attribution-audit-routes.test.ts \
  src/__tests__/issue-agent-mutation-ownership-routes.test.ts \
  src/__tests__/low-trust-red-team-routes.test.ts                                        # 98 tests
```

`tsc --noEmit` passes for the shared, ui, and server packages.

Manual, in a browser:

1. Start the UI only: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vite`.
2. Open `/ux-lab/cross-issue-collaboration`. No session is needed,
because `ux-lab` routes are public.
3. All three surfaces were captured at 1440x900 in light mode and dark
mode, and at 390x844. The page reported no errors.
4. The chip tooltip was opened by a hover and by a keyboard focus.

Rendering the page found defects that the tests had missed. Three copy
and contrast defects were fixed, and two of them are now pinned by a
test. A design review then found three layout defects, which are also
fixed: the denial notice orphaned its label when a value wrapped, the
receipt icon wrapped onto its own line at narrow widths, and the chip
tooltip was reachable by hover only.

## Risks

Low risk, and additive.

- Every new surface renders nothing when its data is absent. Comments
without a recorded responsible user show no chip, and activity events
without a receipt show no receipt, so existing rows do not change.
- No migration is included. The data these surfaces read already ships.
- The wire values of the two per-run cap denial codes are unchanged.
Only the human-readable text changes, plus six codes that had no
`details.code` before.
- The denial copy is read by agents as well as people. If wording must
change later, one shared module is the only place to change it.
- Roadmap check: this extends the completed "Activity log & action
attribution" area rather than duplicating planned core work.

## Model Used

Claude Opus 5 (Anthropic), model id `claude-opus-5[1m]`, 1M context
window, extended thinking, with tool use and code execution. It ran as
an agent in Claude Code and drove a real browser to capture the review
screenshots.

9b9631b724 feat(ui): chat-style tasks polish — rich-text composer, attachment chips, live-turn interstitials, mobile layout (#10707)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Operators talk to their agents on the issue detail page. An
experimental "Chat-Style Tasks" view (#10606) makes that page read as a
conversation instead of a ticket form.
> - The first release of that view shipped with a plain-text composer,
no visible narration while an agent works, and a desktop-only layout.
> - Users write formatted replies, paste screenshots, and follow long
agent runs from their phones. The experimental view should support all
of that before it can graduate.
> - This pull request is the next iteration of the same experiment: a
rich-text composer with attachments, live-turn narration on the status
line, cleaner settled-turn history, and a mobile layout.
> - The benefit is a chat view that feels alive while the agent works
and stays readable after it finishes, on desktop and mobile, still fully
behind the existing opt-in flag.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #49 (chat with agents is a much-wanted feature).
Refs #10606 (the merged first release of the experimental chat-style
task view; this PR iterates on it).

Related PRs found in the dedup search:
- #8228 — open PR that polishes the classic issue chat composer. It
targets the flag-off legacy path; this PR only changes the flag-on
experimental view.
- #10466 — merged blockquote-recovery fix in the shared MarkdownEditor.
This PR now reuses that editor inside the chat composer.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The experimental "Chat-Style Tasks" view on the issue detail page
(Settings → Experimental, `enableTaskChatRedesign`, default off).

**Subsystem affected**

UI (issue detail page, chat-style task view).

**Current behavior**

With the experiment enabled, the composer is a plain textarea with no
formatting, no attachment preview, and no mention support. While an
agent runs, the status line shows only a static label, and the agent's
narration text is hidden. Finished runs render one settled row per turn,
so a run with many short turns produces a long list of near-duplicate
"Worked" rows, and turns without a comment append at the bottom out of
order. On mobile, the desktop bounded-height thread makes the page
scroll poorly.

**Proposed behavior**

The composer uses the shared MarkdownEditor: markdown formatting,
mentions, image paste with thumbnail previews, and non-image attachment
chips. Sending posts on Cmd/Ctrl+Enter. While an agent runs, the status
line rotates playful status words and surfaces the agent's own narration
as short interstitial updates: each update holds for a minimum dwell, is
replaced only when superseded, and slides through a one-line viewport
with tokenized motion. Back-to-back settled turns coalesce into one
"Worked" row with summed durations and re-derived tool counts, and
comment-less settled turns insert chronologically at their run's start
time. On mobile, the thread renders in the document flow with window
auto-follow and a sticky safe-area composer; the desktop layout is
unchanged.

**Reason and benefit**

The chat view is only convincing if it feels like a conversation with a
working agent. Rich text and screenshots are table stakes for chat
input. Live narration gives moment-to-moment feedback without opening
transcripts. Coalesced history keeps long-running tasks readable. Mobile
support lets operators follow runs away from their desks.

**Breaking changes**

None. Every change is gated behind the existing `enableTaskChatRedesign`
flag, which is off by default. The flag-off page is unchanged.

## What Changed

- `TaskChatComposer` swaps its textarea for the shared `MarkdownEditor`:
markdown formatting, mentions, image paste with object-URL thumbnail
previews (revoked on clear and unmount), and posting on Cmd/Ctrl+Enter.
- Non-image attachments render as chips on a new shared
`ui/attachment.tsx` primitive (adds the `@base-ui/react` dependency it
builds on).
- New `status-whimsy.ts`: deterministic rotation of playful status words
on the live status line.
- Live interstitial narration: the transcript adapter tags agent
self-talk, and the live status line shows it as ephemeral one-line
updates with a ~4s minimum dwell, hold-until-superseded replacement, and
a slide transition driven by new `--motion-line-scroll` tokens
(cataloged in `motion-tokens.ts`, which a test keeps 1:1 with
`index.css`). Hover affordance applies only to the status line, with no
leading icon.
- Settled-turn history: `coalesceSettledTurns` merges back-to-back
settled agent turns into one "Worked" row (summed per-run durations,
tool counts re-derived from the merged turn); `assembleThreadItems`
inserts comment-less settled turns chronologically at run start instead
of appending them at the bottom; settled turns render tool rows only
(the separate thinking block component is removed).
- The "Worked" summary attaches to the reply timestamp row, and thread
timestamps are always visible.
- Mobile layout: the thread renders with `scroll={false}` in the page
scroll, a new `useWindowAutoFollow` hook keeps the window pinned to new
content, the composer is sticky with safe-area padding, and the editor
uses 16px text so iOS does not zoom on focus. The desktop bounded chain
is untouched.
- New `TaskChatDescriptionBubble` renders the issue description as the
first chat bubble, and `McpIcon` gives MCP tools a distinct icon.
- `IssueDetail.test.tsx` stubs `TaskChatThread`: the composer's
`@mdxeditor` dependency cannot load under jsdom's CSSOM, and the suite
exercises the flag-off path.

## Verification

- `pnpm check:token-gates` — 3/3 CLEAN.
- `node scripts/check-task-chat-motion.mjs` — OK (30 files scanned,
seams present).
- `cd ui && npx tsc -b` — clean.
- `cd ui && pnpm vitest run` — 3,482 of 3,483 tests pass locally. The
one failure is the `IssueProperties.test.tsx` monitor-row
time-formatting test, which is timezone-sensitive: it fails identically
on unmodified `origin/master` in a non-UTC timezone and passes with
`TZ=UTC`. It is not related to this change.
- Manual: enable "Chat-Style Tasks" in Settings → Experimental and open
an issue with an assigned agent. Comment to start a run: the status line
rotates status words and shows the agent's narration as short held
updates. After the run, consecutive turns fold into one "Worked" row
under the reply timestamp. Paste an image into the composer to see a
thumbnail chip; attach a non-image file to see a file chip; send with
Cmd+Enter. Open the same issue in a narrow viewport to see the
document-flow layout with the sticky composer.
- Visual snapshot baselines are intentionally not updated: per
`doc/design/DECISION-SHEET.md`, "Per-change snapshot verification
demoted to dormant (Jul 13 2026)".

## Risks

- The composer now loads the shared MarkdownEditor inside the chat view.
The editor is already used across the app (issue descriptions,
comments), so its behavior is well exercised; composer-specific handling
(paste, attachments, submit keys) is covered by new tests.
- The transcript adapter changes how live narration and settled turns
are derived from run logs. Malformed or legacy logs degrade to generic
rows rather than crashing, and the adapter suites cover the merge and
ordering rules.
- Object URLs for paste previews are revoked on send-clear and unmount
to avoid leaks; jsdom environments without `URL.createObjectURL` are
guarded.
- All changes are behind the default-off `enableTaskChatRedesign` flag.
Overall risk with the flag off is low.

## Model Used

- Claude (Anthropic), model id `claude-fable-5` (Claude Fable 5),
extended thinking enabled, agentic tool use (file editing, shell, test
execution) via Claude Code / Claude Agent SDK.

scotttongandClaude Fable 5 c185e64b77 feat(ui): chat-style task view behind an experimental flag (#10606)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Operators spend most of their time on the issue detail page. They
talk to the assigned agent there through comments.
> - The current page reads as a ticket form. The thread sits below
properties, the composer sits mid-page, and live agent activity renders
as dense transcript logs.
> - Talking to an agent is a conversation. A chat-first layout matches
that mental model better than a ticket form.
> - A layout change this large must not disrupt current users. It needs
a safe opt-in path and full parity with the existing thread features.
> - This pull request adds a chat-style task view behind a new
"Chat-Style Tasks" experiment toggle. The flag is off by default and the
existing page is unchanged when it is off.
> - The benefit is a focused, readable conversation with the agent: live
tool activity folds into compact summaries, the composer stays at the
bottom, and properties, plan, and artifacts move into header tabs.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #49 (chat with agents is a much-wanted feature).

Related PRs found in the dedup search:
- #4489 — an earlier, closed attempt to promote the conversation to the
primary surface on issue detail. This PR is a fresh, flag-gated take on
the same goal.
- #8837 — an open PR that proposes a two-column task layout. It
restructures the same page but keeps the ticket paradigm; this PR is
orthogonal because it is opt-in and chat-first.

**Subsystem affected**

UI (issue detail page).

**Problem or motivation**

The issue detail page presents agent conversations as a ticket:
properties first, thread below, composer in the middle of the page, and
raw transcript noise during live runs. Users who mainly converse with
their agents must scroll past chrome to follow the conversation, and
live activity is hard to read.

**Proposed solution**

An opt-in chat-style view of the issue detail page, gated by a new
"Chat-Style Tasks" experiment toggle in Settings → Experimental. With
the flag on, the thread fills the center pane, the composer docks to the
bottom of the viewport, Properties / Plan / Artifacts become header
tabs, live turns show a status pill with the current tool action and
elapsed time, and settled turns collapse to a "Worked · N tools" summary
that expands into per-tool rows. With the flag off, nothing changes.

**Alternatives considered**

Restyling the existing layout in place (rejected: too disruptive without
an opt-out), and a separate chat page beside the issue page (rejected:
splits the task's single source of truth). A per-request lab page
(`/task-chat-lab`, dev-only) was kept for design iteration instead.

**Roadmap alignment**

ROADMAP.md "CEO Chat" wants lighter conversations that still resolve to
real work objects. This PR keeps the core task-and-comments model — it
only changes presentation, opt-in — so it does not duplicate that
planned work.

## What Changed

- New `enableTaskChatRedesign` instance setting, exposed as a
"Chat-Style Tasks" experiment card in Settings → Experimental (shared
feature catalog, validators, server instance-settings service, and UI
settings page).
- New `ui/src/components/task-chat/` component family: chat thread with
turn grouping, agent reply bubbles, live status pill, collapsible turn
summaries with per-tool rows, plan tab with a sticky CTA action bar,
inline interaction cards, per-request mode chips, and a bottom-docked
composer.
- A shared tool taxonomy (`tool-taxonomy.ts`) maps tool names to verbs
and icons; the status pill, tool rows, and the classic transcript view
all use it.
- A transcript adapter converts stored run logs into chat turns; it
dedupes tool-call updates by `toolUseId` so tool counts match the
expanded rows, and it keeps a tool row's first real name when later
generic updates arrive.
- Composer: posts on Cmd/Ctrl+Enter, supports image paste with
object-URL thumbnail previews (revoked on clear/unmount), and uploads
through the issue attachments route.
- `IssueDetail.tsx`: with the flag on, pane tabs move to the header bar,
the header is not sticky, and the chat fills the center; with the flag
off, the previous layout renders unchanged.
- Motion tokens for the new animations live in `ui/src/index.css` with a
`motion-tokens.ts` catalog and a test that keeps the two in sync (the
catalog now also covers the shared enter/exit/swap tokens that the
decision/quicklook block declares).
- A dev-only `/task-chat-lab` page with fixtures and a tweak panel for
motion tuning.

## Verification

- `pnpm typecheck` — clean across the workspace.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — 3/3 CLEAN.
- `cd ui && pnpm vitest run` — 3,344 of 3,345 tests pass locally. The
one failure is `IssueProperties.test.tsx` monitor-row time formatting,
which is timezone-sensitive: it also fails on unmodified `origin/master`
in a non-UTC timezone and passes with `TZ=UTC`. It is not related to
this change.
- `cd server && pnpm vitest run
src/__tests__/instance-settings-service.test.ts` — 21/21 pass (covers
the new setting).
- Manual: start the dev server, open Settings → Experimental, enable
"Chat-Style Tasks", and open any issue. The thread fills the page, the
composer docks to the bottom, and Properties / Plan / Artifacts appear
as header tabs. Assign an agent and comment to watch a live run: the
status pill shows the current tool action with elapsed time, and the
finished turn folds into a "Worked · N tools" summary. Disable the
toggle and confirm the classic page is unchanged.
- Visual snapshot baselines are intentionally not updated: per
`doc/design/DECISION-SHEET.md`, "Per-change snapshot verification
demoted to dormant (Jul 13 2026)".

## Risks

- The flag-off path goes through the same `IssueDetail.tsx` file, so a
regression there would affect current users. Mitigation: the classic
markup renders through the same components as before behind explicit
flag conditionals, and the full UI suite passes.
- The transcript adapter interprets stored run-log formats, including
legacy entries without `toolUseId`. Malformed logs degrade to generic
tool rows rather than crashing.
- The new view changes no server behavior other than one additive
instance setting; it is additive and default-off. Overall risk with the
flag off is low.

## Model Used

- Claude (Anthropic), model id `claude-fable-5` (Claude Fable 5),
extended thinking enabled, agentic tool use (file editing, shell, test
execution) via Claude Code / Claude Agent SDK.

b4a7a12985 feat: make recovery updates quieter (#10542)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The recovery subsystem restores work after an agent run stops or
loses state
> - Recovery notices currently use the same visual weight as normal work
comments
> - Recovery agents can also post long narratives that obscure the
useful hand-off
> - The server must identify recovery output because agents cannot set
presentation controls
> - This pull request adds compact recovery notices, structured action
references, and brief recovery prompts
> - The benefit is a quieter issue thread that still keeps recovery
state inspectable

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

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

**Problem or motivation**

Recovery notices and recovery-run comments can dominate an issue thread.
Operators must scan routine recovery narration before they find the work
hand-off.

**Proposed solution**

Give routine recovery output a compact system-notice presentation.
Derive the presentation on the server so agents cannot hide arbitrary
comments. Keep the successful missing-state summary fully visible
because that comment is the recovery deliverable.

**Alternatives considered**

The UI could detect recovery text. That approach is fragile and does not
provide structured action references. Agents could also set presentation
directly, but that would weaken the current board-only security
boundary.

**Roadmap alignment**

This change refines the completed “Self-healing runs & automatic
recovery” and “Enforced Outcomes” roadmap areas. It does not add a
competing roadmap capability.

**Additional context**

The scope covers shared comment validation, server recovery notices,
agent-comment derivation, and recovery prompt text. No database
migration is needed because presentation data already uses JSON.

## What Changed

- Add the `compact` issue-comment presentation density to shared
constants, types, and validation.
- Give recovery escalation, waiting, and in-place notices compact titles
and structured recovery-action metadata.
- Use recovery-action metadata for notice deduplication, with the legacy
text marker as a compatibility fallback.
- Derive compact presentation for comments from recovery-scoped runs
while preserving the board-only presentation boundary.
- Keep successful missing-state recovery summaries fully visible.
- Ask recovery participants to record outcomes in `resolutionNote` and
keep source-issue comments brief.
- Add shared, route, service, and prompt tests for the new behavior and
exceptions.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- Focused Vitest coverage: 320 tests passed across shared validators,
adapter prompts, issue comments, recovery actions, and heartbeat
recovery.
- Full server phase: 292 files passed, 3,094 tests passed, and 2 tests
skipped.
- Full UI phase: 386 files passed and 3,182 tests passed.
- `pnpm build`
- Known master baseline: `cli/src/__tests__/secrets.test.ts` expects
`pass`, but the current implementation returns `warn` when strict secret
mode is disabled for Postgres. This branch does not change CLI secrets
code.

## Risks

- Low migration risk. The presentation column is JSON and needs no
database migration.
- Recovery-run detection depends on the persisted run context snapshot.
- Structured metadata becomes the primary deduplication key. The
existing body marker remains as a fallback for older comments.

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

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex with `gpt-5.6-sol`. The runtime did not expose the
context-window size. The model used agentic reasoning, repository tools,
code execution, and test execution.

f12bb27bcd feat: make issue monitors visible across task surfaces (#9783)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source control plane people use to supervise
AI-agent companies.
> - Operators need task execution state to be visible where they read,
reply to, and manage an issue.
> - Scheduled monitor state was easy to miss because it lived in a
description-area card and used inconsistent, mostly static time copy.
> - The task page, composer, retry card, and properties panel therefore
needed one shared monitor-state and countdown language.
> - This pull request adds shared live-ticking time utilities, moves
monitor status into a top-of-page banner and composer strip, and
redesigns the properties row with complete read-only details.
> - The benefit is that operators can immediately understand when an
agent resumes, why it is waiting, and how to act without hunting across
the page.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Issue monitors can schedule a future agent check, retry, or wake, but
the UI did not present that state consistently or prominently. The
existing description-area activity card competed with issue content, the
composer did not explain that replying wakes the agent early, compact
properties copy truncated important details, and relative times did not
share a live two-unit formatter.

This change makes scheduled monitor state visible and consistent across
the issue header, reply composer, properties panel, and scheduled-retry
card. Related prior server-side recovery visibility work: #9629
(distinct scope).

## What Changed

- Added shared two-unit monitor ETA/offset formatters and a live-ticking
countdown hook, including compact absolute-time rules for Today,
weekday, and cross-year dates.
- Replaced the description-area monitor activity card with a top-of-page
status banner and added an inline composer strip that explains replies
wake the agent before the scheduled check.
- Redesigned the properties Monitor row as readable two-line copy with
attempt state, due/overdue/cleared wording, click-to-edit behavior, and
a hover/tap details tooltip.
- Adopted the shared two-unit formatting in the scheduled-retry card and
added focused coverage for monitor formatting, state transitions,
visibility, and controls.
- Added the approved wireframe package and published reference:
https://pages.paperclip.ing/pap-14557-monitor-visibility/

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run ui/src/lib/issue-monitor.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueMonitorBanner.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueProperties.test.tsx` — 3 files, 74 tests passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm build` — passed with existing Vite optimization/chunk-size
warnings.
- UX review approved the rendered real components across desktop/mobile,
light/dark, and the scheduled/retrying/due/overdue/cleared/none state
matrix.
- QA passed 6/6 criteria in Chromium, including a live countdown
transition without refresh. Review evidence included the P2 banner
state-matrix screenshot and the P3 properties-row and details-tooltip
screenshots, plus a dark-mode capture.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` currently reports five pre-existing `#9627`
comment literals on `origin/master`; this branch introduces none of
those literals or any new token violation.

## Risks

- Low-to-moderate UI behavior risk: monitor copy and placement change
across several issue surfaces, but all derive from one shared state
builder and focused tests cover the state matrix.
- Countdown rendering wakes once per minute while a visible monitor is
scheduled; the hook is limited to active monitor surfaces and stops when
hidden.
- No database, API contract, migration, telemetry, or authorization
behavior changes.

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

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, `gpt-5.6-sol`; context-window metadata was unavailable
in this runtime; reasoning, repository tool use, command execution, and
test execution enabled. Earlier implementation commits were assisted by
Claude Fable 5 and Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context), as credited in their
commit trailers.

DottaandClaude Opus 4.8 3e348b96b9 perf(ui): cut live-updates churn that inflates tab memory (#9624)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Its web UI keeps live views (issue threads, run transcripts,
dashboard) fresh via React Query polling plus a live-events websocket,
coordinated across tabs with a `BroadcastChannel` layer
> - Long-lived tabs viewing live agent runs grew to multi-GB memory
footprints while their JS heap stayed ~60–200 MB — so the memory is
off-heap (Blink/native + committed allocator arenas), not a classic JS
leak
> - Live profiling of a reproduced 2.7 GB / 66 MB tab showed 15–30% idle
CPU, ~3 fetches/sec across overlapping poll loops, and ~8 `setInterval`
create/clear cycles per second whose rate grew ~7× as the tab aged —
relentless allocation churn that inflates committed memory the OS never
reclaims, amplified across tabs by the cross-tab fan-out
> - This pull request cuts that churn at its four largest sources
(invalidation storm, per-instance 1 s timers, redundant polling,
unbounded streamed-run set)
> - The benefit is that idle tabs do far less periodic work, so their
off-heap footprint stops ballooning over a long session

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists; describing inline per CONTRIBUTING.md →
"Link Issues or Describe Them In-PR", following the bug report template.

**What happened?**

Browser tabs viewing live agent runs grew to 8–16 GB memory footprint
over a long session (multiple tabs open), while each tab's "live" JS
heap stayed only ~150–250 MB. Every idle tab also burned 15–30% CPU.
Tabs eventually approached the ~4 GB V8 heap ceiling / OS pressure and
could crash.

**Expected behavior**

Tabs viewing live runs should hold a bounded footprint and do minimal
work while idle, regardless of how long they stay open or how many tabs
are open.

**Steps to reproduce**

Open several issue/run tabs that have agents actively streaming and
leave them open for a while. Watch Chrome's Task Manager: Memory
Footprint climbs into the GBs while "JavaScript Memory" stays small, and
CPU stays high on idle tabs. Reproduced in ~90 minutes: a tab reached
2.7 GB footprint on a 66 MB JS heap, and the per-second timer-churn rate
was ~7× higher on a 90-minute-old tab than a fresh one.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Branch `fix/live-updates-churn`, off `master`.

**Deployment mode**

Local dev (`pnpm dev`), web UI. Not adapter-specific — core UI
live-updates plumbing (observed with `claude_local` / `codex_local`
runs).

## What Changed

- **`ui/src/lib/query-invalidation-batcher.ts` (new)** —
`createInvalidationBatcher` throttles + de-dupes React Query
invalidations into one flush per ~300 ms, and
`createCoalescingQueryClient` wraps the client via a `Proxy` so only
`invalidateQueries` is batched (optimistic `setQueryData` writes stay
immediate). Wired into `LiveUpdatesProvider`, which previously
invalidated synchronously on every websocket event.
- **`ui/src/hooks/useSecondTick.ts` (new)** — one shared, ref-counted,
page-wide 1 s ticker. `useLiveElapsed` in `IssueChatThread` now uses it
instead of a per-instance `setInterval` that forced a full-thread
re-render every second per live element.
- **`ui/src/components/transcript/useLiveRunTranscripts.ts`** — when the
realtime websocket is enabled, the recurring log poll backs off to a 30
s safety-net cadence instead of polling every 2 s on top of the live
stream. Added a marker for the durable poll→push rearchitecture.
- **`ui/src/lib/issueChatTranscriptRuns.ts`** —
`resolveIssueChatTranscriptRuns` now caps the streamed run set
(live/active runs always kept; most-recent linked runs fill up to 20) so
a large run history can't open a live-transcript poll per historical
run.
- **`ui/src/main.tsx`** — explicit `gcTime` so cross-tab-published cache
entries for unobserved resources are collected promptly.
- Tests for the batcher, shared ticker, and run cap.

## Verification

- `vitest`: new suites `query-invalidation-batcher.test.ts` (batcher
collapses 20 invalidations → 1 flush; keeps distinct keys/variants;
dispose cancels; proxy passes non-invalidate methods through),
`useSecondTick.test.tsx` (single ref-counted timer, stops when idle),
`issueChatTranscriptRuns.test.ts` (cap keeps newest + live). All pass.
- Existing affected suites pass: `LiveUpdatesProvider` (23),
`IssueChatThread` (), `useLiveRunTranscripts`,
`AgentDetail.instructions` — 109 tests across affected files.
- `tsc -b` clean.
- Behavior confirmed by live profiling before the change (2.7 GB / 66 MB
tab, ~8 interval churns/sec growing 7× with age). Runtime churn
reduction should be re-measured against a rebuilt bundle with the same
instrumentation.

## Risks

Low-to-moderate; all changes reduce work rather than add features.
- **Invalidation batching** delays live-driven refetches by up to ~300
ms. Optimistic `setQueryData` writes (e.g. the visible issue's new
comment) remain immediate, so foreground updates still feel instant;
only the safety-net refetch is throttled. Non-live invalidations (user
actions, mutations) are unaffected — they use the real client.
- **Poll back-off** relies on the websocket as the live source when
realtime is enabled; a 30 s fallback poll still covers gaps/reconnects
(both the transcript hook and `LiveUpdatesProvider` also
auto-reconnect).
- **Run cap (20)** means an issue with a very large run history streams
live transcripts only for its live/active + 20 most-recent runs; older
runs still open normally via their run pages.
- Downstream test fallout (timing-sensitive tests around
invalidation/polling) may need adjustment — flagged intentionally for
follow-up.

Durable follow-up (out of scope, marked in code): replace transcript/run
polling with server push (SSE/websocket deltas) so idle tabs do no
periodic work at all.

## Model Used

- **Provider:** Anthropic, via the Claude Code CLI.
- **Model:** Claude Opus 4.8 (`claude-opus-4-8`).
- **Reasoning mode:** Extended thinking enabled.
- **Capabilities used:** tool use (shell, file editing), sub-agent
fan-out for codebase analysis, and the Chrome DevTools MCP to reproduce
and profile the memory/CPU churn on a live instance.

scotttongandClaude Fable 5 634ae1298f fix(ui): consolidate live/running blues; stop inbox unread badge indenting the row (#9383)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The web UI leans on a shared design-token + component system so
surfaces stay visually consistent as they grow
> - Two small inconsistencies had crept in: several distinct blues were
used to signal "live/running" agent state across the sidebar, task
header, and chat thread; and in the Inbox an unread task's mark-read dot
was pushing that row's status icon and title one column right of read
rows
> - Both read as "not quite aligned" in daily use and undercut the
polish of the lists work that just landed
> - This pull request consolidates the live/running blues onto one
shared recipe and stops the unread dot from indenting the row
> - The benefit is one consistent "live" blue everywhere and Inbox rows
that line up whether read or unread

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this work; describing inline per the
bug-report template.

- **Problem**: (1) the same concept — an agent actively working —
rendered in three visibly different blues: the sidebar `N live` dot, the
task-detail "Live" badge, and the chat-thread "RUNNING" badge each used
a different token/recipe. (2) In the Inbox, unread rows carry a leading
mark-read dot that occupies the chevron column, but a per-row spacer was
still rendering in that same column — so on unread rows the status icon
+ title were shifted one column (~24px) further right than read rows.
Most visible when grouped by workspace.
- **Steps to reproduce**: open the Inbox with a mix of read and unread
tasks (group by workspace). The unread rows' status icons sit further
right than the read rows'. Separately, compare the blue of the sidebar
`N live` dot, a task's "Live" header badge, and a chat "RUNNING" badge —
they don't match.
- **Expected behavior**: unread and read rows align on the same status
column, with the unread dot centered on the workspace group chevron; and
all three "live/running" affordances share one blue.

## What Changed

- Added a shared `liveBlueBadge` recipe in `ui/src/lib/status-colors.ts`
and pointed the task-detail **Live** badge (`IssueDetail.tsx`) and the
chat-thread **RUNNING** badge (`IssueChatThread.tsx`) at it; removed the
now-redundant `brandChipBadge` usage from the chat thread and a stray
`🔵` breadcrumb prefix.
- Changed the sidebar **`N live`** dot (`SidebarNavItem.tsx`) to the
same `blue-600 / dark:blue-400` as its adjacent label text.
- **Inbox** (`Inbox.tsx`): skip the per-row leading spacer when the
unread mark-read dot is present, so the dot alone fills the chevron
column. Unread rows' status icon + title now sit in the same column as
read rows, and the dot centers on the workspace group chevron.
- **Test** (`Inbox.test.tsx`): added a regression test asserting an
unread leaf row renders the mark-read dot and drops the spacer, while a
read row keeps the spacer.

## Verification

- `pnpm typecheck` — clean (all packages)
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — 3/3 CLEAN
- `cd ui && pnpm vitest run src/pages/Inbox.test.tsx` — 14/14 (includes
the new regression test)
- Full Storybook visual suite (514 stories, both themes) — green locally
(CI cannot run this suite yet — the baseline-manifest archive is
unpublished, a pre-existing condition from #9134)
- Manual (workspace-grouped Inbox, 2× dark): measured the unread badge
center at the same x as the workspace chevron (276 = 276) and the
unread-row status icon at the same x as read-row status icons (292 =
292). Before/after screenshots in a PR comment below.

## Risks

Low risk — presentation only. No data, routing, or state changes. The
blue consolidation is a token/class swap; the Inbox change removes a
redundant spacer element on unread rows only (read rows and
non-grouped/mobile views are unaffected). The unread-row behavior is
covered by the new unit test.

## Model Used

Claude (Anthropic), Opus 4.8 — model id `claude-opus-4-8`; extended
thinking + tool use, driving local verification (typecheck, token gates,
vitest, Playwright visual suite + pixel measurements).

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.

> ROADMAP.md was checked; no duplicate planned core feature was
identified. Related open pull requests were searched before opening this
PR.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-5.5 via Codex CLI, with tool use and local code execution.
Context-window size unavailable in this environment.

DottaandPaperclip 1f07690184 fix(ui): keep issue threads from jumping to latest comment (#9354)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Issue and item detail pages use a shared issue chat thread to show
comments, runs, activity, and interactions.
> - That thread still defaulted to landing on the latest comment when
messages first loaded.
> - On long issue/item pages, that default can yank the operator away
from the top of the page before they choose to inspect the newest
message.
> - Deep links to comment hashes can create the same kind of initial
viewport jump when they are used as generic navigation targets.
> - This pull request makes initial latest-comment and initial
thread-hash scrolling opt-in instead of default behavior.
> - The benefit is stable initial page position across issue-thread
surfaces while keeping the explicit Jump to latest control available.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No exact public GitHub issue was found for this bug.

Bug description:
- What happened: opening a page with a shared issue conversation thread
could automatically move the viewport toward the newest comment/thread
target.
- Expected behavior: ordinary page loads should keep the initial
viewport stable unless the user explicitly clicks Jump to latest.
- Steps to reproduce: open an issue or item detail page with a long
conversation thread and observe whether the page jumps to the newest
thread entry on initial load.
- Paperclip version/commit: reproduced while working on the current
`master` branch lineage.
- Deployment mode: local trusted/dev UI.

Related public thread/comment UX work: Refs #3916, Refs #7972, Refs
#8800.

## What Changed

- Changed `IssueChatThread` so initial latest-comment scrolling defaults
to off.
- Added a separate opt-in for initial thread-hash scrolling, also
defaulting to off.
- Preserved stale deleted-comment hash cleanup without scrolling the
page.
- Updated regression coverage so default initial load stays put, comment
hashes do not scroll by default, and manual Jump to latest still
scrolls.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` passed on the clean PR
branch.
- `pnpm --dir ui exec vitest run src/pages/IssueDetail.test.tsx -t
"loads from the pending state into issue detail without changing hook
order"` passed on the clean PR branch.
- `pnpm --dir ui exec vitest run
src/components/IssueChatThread.test.tsx` was attempted on the clean PR
branch, but the file fails before changed assertions with the existing
`TypeError: act is not a function` test-harness issue across 58 tests;
14 tests passed.
- Static check: no `autoScrollToLatestOnInitialLoad={true}` or
`autoScrollToHashOnInitialLoad={true}` call sites remain in `ui/src`.

## Risks

Low risk. This only changes initial scroll defaults in the shared issue
thread. The main behavioral shift is that direct comment/thread hashes
no longer auto-scroll on first load unless a caller explicitly opts in;
the Jump to latest button and post-submit scroll behavior are unchanged.

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.

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`.

- 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
commit metadata.

DottaandPaperclip 1c75a46c10 feat(ui): add waiting-on-live-work blocked notice (#9298)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Operators rely on the issue detail thread to understand whether a
task is blocked, live, or waiting on another task.
> - A blocked issue can have a healthy blocker chain where downstream
work is actively running and the parent will resume automatically.
> - Showing that case with the same amber blocked notice as a stalled or
attention-needed blocker makes the state look more severe than it is.
> - The UI already receives blocker-attention state, blocker summaries,
and company live-run ids, so this can be clarified without a new API
shape.
> - This pull request adds a blue "Waiting on live work" notice for
covered blocker chains while preserving the existing amber notice for
the other blocked states.
> - The benefit is that operators can distinguish healthy queued work
from blocked work that needs intervention.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #3820
Refs #8271
Related PR: #3877
Supersedes #9295

## What Changed

- Added a blue `IssueBlockedNotice` variant when
`blockerAttention.state` is `covered` and the blocker chain has live
work.
- Rendered blocker-chain progress as done, running, and queued steps,
including a "Now running" row for live terminal blockers.
- Preserved the existing amber blocked notice for stalled,
attention-needed, ordinary blocked, and successful-run handoff states.
- Plumbed the existing `liveIssueIds`, `blockedBy`, and
`blockerAttention` data from issue detail into the chat-thread blocked
notice.
- Added regression coverage around the covered live-work state, the
no-confirmed-live fallback, numeric step ordering, and amber fallback
states.
- Hardened a low-trust server route test cleanup helper so CI deletes
heartbeat run events before deleting heartbeat runs.

## Verification

- `pnpm check:token-gates`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/components/IssueBlockedNotice.test.tsx`
- GitHub PR workflow is green on head
`52ab6d9076ce233c183bf7133fa666e8597b6765`.
- Greptile check is green on head
`52ab6d9076ce233c183bf7133fa666e8597b6765` with zero unresolved review
threads.

## Risks

Low runtime risk: the product change is frontend-only and uses data
already returned to the issue detail page. The main risk is visual
regression in the blocked notice; the change keeps non-covered states on
the existing amber path and adds focused regression coverage. The
server-side change is test-only cleanup for an existing CI shard
failure.

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

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex using GPT-5, tool-use enabled in a repository workspace.
The runtime did not expose a more specific model build id or
context-window size.

scotttongandClaude Fable 5 c90e66bdd6 feat(ui): design-system component convergence — Card/Badge adoption, multiplicative radius ladder, unified list surfaces (#9240)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Its UI is governed by a design system (`DESIGN.md` + the token layer
in `ui/src/index.css`, merged in #9134) whose first principle is "one
way to say each thing" — one Card, one Badge, one nav row
> - After the token extraction landed, ~35 files still hand-rolled card
containers, ~45 files hand-rolled pill spans, the sidebar agents section
duplicated the nav-row chrome, and the inbox and tasks lists rendered
the same task rows two subtly different ways
> - Each divergence is a place where a future design change (radius,
hover language, status vocabulary) silently misses surfaces, defeating
the "edit tokens + run checks" model the design system exists for
> - This pull request converges those surfaces onto the shared
primitives, codifies the radius scale as the modern multiplicative
shadcn ladder, and unifies the row/hover/tree-guide language across the
inbox and tasks lists — every visible delta was human-reviewed
screen-by-screen against a live instance across nine feedback rounds
> - The benefit is that the app's look is now steerable from single
knobs (one `--radius` anchor, one Card, one Badge, one row component),
and the visual regression suite covers the result (514 snapshots
including a new AgentDetail page story)

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this work; describing per the feature
template:

- **Problem**: after the design-token foundation (#9134),
component-level drift remained — hand-rolled cards/pills, duplicated
sidebar row chrome, and two different renderings of task rows (inbox vs
tasks list) meant design changes had to be applied per-surface and
frequently missed spots (e.g. status glyphs rendered 16px in the inbox
but 20px in the tasks list because a slot override silently beat the
component default).
- **Proposed behavior**: all card-shaped containers render via `Card`,
all label pills via `Badge`, sidebar rows via `SidebarNavItem`, and both
task-list surfaces via one `IssueRow` configuration; the radius scale is
a single multiplicative ladder anchored at `--radius: 0.5rem`.
- **Alternatives considered**: converting interactive
`<button>`/`<Link>` cards to `Card` divs (rejected — breaks semantics;
documented inline with `design-allow` comments instead); keeping the
legacy additive radius ladder (rejected in favor of the standard shadcn
multiplicative mapping).

## What Changed

- `Card` adoption across ~35 files (settings pages, auth/board flows,
dashboards, list containers, KPI tiles); non-adoptable sites
(interactive cards, `<li>` rows, class-string props, chart tooltip)
carry documented `design-allow(card-pattern)` comments
- `Card` gains an `interactive` prop — one quiet hover affordance for
clickable cards (cursor, border darken, shadow lift, focus ring),
applied to skills tiles, artifact cards, and the company selector; cards
carry no resting shadow
- `Badge` adoption for 113 hand-rolled pill spans across ~45 files;
`PropertyChip` wraps `Badge` internally; `StatusBadge`, external-object
chips, and match chips stay bespoke by documented decision (WCAG-tuned
status mechanics)
- Radius ladder becomes the multiplicative shadcn mapping
(`sm/md/lg/xl/2xl/3xl/4xl = 0.6/0.8/1.0/1.4/1.8/2.2/2.6 × --radius`,
anchor `0.5rem`); every card surface unifies on `rounded-lg`; the
orphaned 8px literal token is deleted
- Sidebar: agent rows render via `SidebarNavItem` (new additive props:
`iconNode`, `active`, `trailing`, `liveAccessory`); live dots use
`--status-agent-running`; one row rhythm and inset rounded pill
highlight; right-aligned trailing badges; every labeled section is
collapsible
- Inbox + tasks lists unified: md status glyphs, `accent/50` rounded row
hovers, vertical tree guides under parent rows (opaque underlay so
dark-mode translucent borders don't stack), no horizontal dividers under
expanded parents; the swipe-to-archive reveal layer shows only
mid-swipe; board toggle uses the `SquareKanban` glyph
- Kanban: every column carries a status-hued tint; lanes default
expanded (including empty); compact mode collapses empty lanes to
labeled rails (fixes a clipped, label-less empty-column state)
- Storybook: new AgentDetail page story (realistic fixtures, light+dark)
joins the visual suite; suite captures with `reducedMotion: 'reduce'`
and the ux-lab reasoning ticker honors `prefers-reduced-motion`; a stale
lexical alias in `storybook/main.ts` is fixed (build was broken since
the lexical 0.46 bump)
- Keyboard navigation, from live review of the unified lists: inbox
navigation keys work on every tab (archive keys stay scoped to the
archivable tab); keyboard-driven scrolling no longer hands the selection
to whatever row lands under the stationary cursor (hover selects only
after real pointer movement); the tasks list view gains the same j/k /
arrows / Enter selection model as the inbox; and the `g` then `i`
go-to-inbox chord works app-wide instead of only on the issue detail
page
- Token gates restored to 3/3 CLEAN (tokenized a post-#9134 regression
in the recovery card); decisions recorded in
`doc/design/DECISION-SHEET.md` and `doc/design/COMPONENT-INVENTORY.md`
(investigation verdicts: FileTree vs WorkspaceFileBrowser and the four
entity pickers stay separate — evidence included)

## Verification

- `pnpm check:token-gates` → 3/3 CLEAN
- `pnpm typecheck` → green (all packages)
- `cd ui && npx vitest run` → 2106/2106 (assertions updated in lockstep
where they documented superseded decisions; new tests for the global
go-to-inbox chord)
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui build` → exit 0
- `pnpm build-storybook` → succeeds (also fixes the lexical-alias break
on master)
- Visual regression: 514-snapshot Playwright suite green against the
updated baseline (zero diffs from the keyboard-navigation round — those
changes are purely behavioral). Note: baselines live outside git per the
suite design and the baseline-manifest archive is not yet published, so
CI cannot run this suite — it was run locally throughout; every visible
delta was reviewed screen-by-screen in a live instance across nine
review rounds. Review evidence (before/after triplets) intentionally
kept out of the repo for size; available on request.
- Manual: exercised dashboard, tasks (list + board), inbox, agents,
skills, costs, settings, and artifact surfaces in light and dark themes

## Risks

- Wide but shallow visual surface: most changes are class-string
substitutions with behavior preserved (props, handlers, roles, test
ids). The riskiest areas — dnd-kit card refs (React 19 ref-as-prop),
inbox swipe-to-archive, and sidebar overlays — are covered by existing
unit tests (all green) and were manually exercised.
- Intentional visual deltas (rounded cards, tinted kanban columns, md
status glyphs, unified hovers) are design decisions recorded in
`doc/design/DECISION-SHEET.md`; each maps to a re-baselined snapshot set
locally.
- The visual suite cannot yet run in CI (unpublished baseline archive —
pre-existing condition from #9134); until that lands, snapshot coverage
is local-only.

## Model Used

- Claude Fable 5 (`claude-fable-5`, Anthropic) via Claude Code — agentic
coding with tool use (file editing, test execution, Playwright
screenshot verification); extended thinking enabled.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 4f5abf6007 feat(recovery-card): W7 reconcile-forward + break-glass actions
Adds the task-page recovery affordance for workspace branch divergence: reconcile-forward when ancestry is safe, and a break-glass override flow that requires explicit confirmation and a reason.

Includes client wiring for the existing reconcile-branch endpoint, issue-detail refresh after successful reconciliation, runtime-management gating for break-glass, and tests for action visibility, payloads, permission gating, and workspace-target selection.

c07e650cd7 feat(ui): single-source design tokens, visual regression suite, and theme retune (#9134)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Its UI is the operator's daily surface: task lists, boards, budgets,
agent status — all built on shadcn components and Tailwind
> - Visual values (colors, spacing, type sizes, radii) were hardcoded at
~1,600 call sites: the same "small gray label" was 9/10/11px depending
on the file, charts disagreed with chips about status colors, two
toggle-switch implementations coexisted in two greens, and there was no
visual regression coverage
> - This made the UI drift-prone and made any restyle a
hundreds-of-files project, which discourages design iteration
> - This pull request extracts visual values into a single token layer
in `ui/src/index.css`, adds a Storybook visual regression suite backed
by external immutable baseline archives, and then applies a deliberate
retune reviewed change-by-change on screenshot diffs
> - The benefit is that Paperclip's look becomes a config surface:
retheming is a token edit reviewed as a snapshot diff, drift is blocked
by a token gate, and future UI PRs can prove exactly what changed
visually without committing hundreds of PNGs

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No existing public issue covers this work (searched "design tokens",
"visual regression", "design system" across issues and PRs). Related in
spirit: Refs #8982 (theming a hardcoded panel — a one-off instance of
the same problem class this PR addresses systematically).

**Problem (feature-request form):** UI visual values are hardcoded per
call site with no source of truth and no regression coverage;
consistency depends on reviewer memory, and restyling requires mass file
edits.
**Proposed solution (this PR):** a single token layer + enforcement gate
+ externally stored visual snapshot suite, then an intentional restyle
on top of that foundation.

## What Changed

- **Token extraction (zero visual change, machine-verified during
development):** committed codemods (`scripts/codemod-*.mjs`) moved
~1,600 hardcoded color/type/spacing/radius/shadow/misc values into named
tokens in a non-inline `:root` block of `ui/src/index.css`.
- **Visual regression suite:** `pnpm test:storybook-visual` covers 255
stories × light/dark = 510 Playwright screenshots at `maxDiffPixels: 0`,
plus new primitive-coverage stories and deterministic-render fixes.
- **External visual baselines:** committed PNG snapshots were removed.
`tests/storybook-visual/baseline-manifest.json` pins an immutable
archive URL/hash/size/count, and `scripts/storybook-visual-baseline.mjs`
handles `download`, `verify`, `pack`, and trusted maintainer `upload`
flows.
- **Opt-in visual CI artifacts:** added a `Storybook Visual` workflow
that runs on manual dispatch or PRs labeled `storybook-visual`,
downloads/verifies the baseline, runs Playwright, and uploads Playwright
report/test-result artifacts for review. Normal PR runs do not mutate
baseline objects.
- **Token gate:** `pnpm check:token-gates` — zero hex literals, zero
arbitrary bracket values, zero raw font-sizes in `ui/src/components/**`
and `ui/src/pages/**`, with a documented inline allowlist for legitimate
opt-outs.
- **Theme retune (intentional, snapshot-reviewed):** new base theme
values; radius ladder derived from a single `--radius` knob; micro-type
cluster collapsed to a named ladder (`--text-nano/micro/compact` +
Tailwind `text-xs`/`text-sm`); letter-spacing collapsed to named steps.
- **One status-color vocabulary:** charts, quota/budget bar fills,
RUNNING/live chips, and liveness indicators all use the canonical
`--status-*` hues. Light-mode legibility fixes for red alert surfaces
that used dark-tuned text classes.
- **One switch:** `ToggleSwitch` restyled to the registry capsule form,
second hand-rolled implementation removed, and all call sites unified.
- **Docs:** `DESIGN.md` is the design contract; `doc/design/` holds
audit reports, decision logs, and updated guidance for external baseline
review/update workflows.
- Dead code removed (`agentStatusBadge` duplicate map), byte-identical
contrast constants consolidated, semantic renames
(`--project-seed`/`--project-none`, `--liveness-blue`).

## Verification

- `pnpm check:token-gates` — 3/3 gates CLEAN during the design-system
run
- `pnpm typecheck` && `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui build` — green
during the design-system run
- `node --test scripts/__tests__/storybook-visual-baseline.test.mjs` —
pass after external-baseline rework
- `pnpm exec tsc --noEmit --pretty false --module NodeNext
--moduleResolution NodeNext --target ES2022 --types
node,@playwright/test tests/storybook-visual/playwright.config.ts
tests/storybook-visual/storybook-visual.spec.ts` — pass after
external-baseline rework
- `git diff --check origin/pr/9134..HEAD` — pass after external-baseline
rework
- `find tests/storybook-visual -type f -name '*.png' -print | wc -l` —
`0`
- `node scripts/storybook-visual-baseline.mjs verify` — intentionally
fails closed until the first trusted maintainer publishes the baseline
archive and updates `baseline-manifest.json`

## Risks

- **Large but shallow:** the PR still touches many UI files due to
mechanical token extraction and retune work, but committed PNG snapshot
churn has been removed from the branch.
- **Baseline publication required before the visual suite can pass in
clean clones:** the manifest currently has placeholder archive metadata.
A trusted maintainer must publish the first immutable archive, then
update `baseline-manifest.json`.
- **Rendering platform variance:** the external baseline should be
captured in the documented Linux/Chromium environment. Future CI runs
verify against the pinned archive and fail closed on checksum/count
mismatch.
- **Visual CI is opt-in while stabilizing:** add the `storybook-visual`
label or dispatch the workflow manually to produce downloadable
Playwright report/test-result artifacts.
- **Scheduled follow-ups, deliberately out of scope:** Tailwind palette
classes map to semantic tokens in a dedicated pass; card/pill component
consolidation; ESLint ratchet. Tracked in
`doc/design/DECISION-SHEET.md`.

## Model Used

Claude Fable 5 (Anthropic, `claude-fable-5`, Mythos-class tier) with
extended thinking, running in Claude Code with tool use; mechanical
phases delegated to Claude Sonnet subagents. Follow-up external-baseline
rework assisted by OpenAI Codex (`gpt-5` coding agent with repository,
terminal, and GitHub tool use). All bulk rewrites executed via
deterministic, idempotent scripts committed in `scripts/`; intentional
visual changes were human-reviewed on screenshot contact sheets.

696c694a58 feat(ui): recovery-card divergence diagnosis + one-click isolated re-issue
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents execute on isolated workspaces (git worktrees), each pinned
to a specific branch and commit at checkout time
> - When an agent's live checkout diverges from the recorded workspace
branch — either through a branch rename, a stale worktree, or a
concurrent git operation — Paperclip detects the mismatch and surfaces a
recovery card to the operator
> - But the existing recovery card showed a generic error with no
diagnostic context: it didn't display *which* branch was expected vs.
which was checked out, the commit SHAs involved, or whether the branches
share ancestry
> - Without that information operators cannot diagnose the root cause,
and the only recovery path was fully manual re-issue
> - This pull request extends `IssueRecoveryActionCard` for
`workspace_validation` / `git_worktree_branch_incoherence` recovery
kinds to render a divergence-diagnosis panel (expected branch, live
branch, short SHAs, ancestry-verdict badge, plain-language reason) and
adds a confirm-gated "Re-issue on isolated workspace" action that
creates a new task with `executionWorkspacePreference:
isolated_workspace` so the re-issued run cannot trip the same
branch-mismatch gate
> - The benefit is that operators can immediately see *why* a workspace
was declined and recover with a single click instead of having to
manually reconstruct the task

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #4757 (heartbeat re-wake doesn't reconcile working-tree HEAD
against ticket's expected branch — this PR surfaces the resulting
divergence to the operator and provides a one-click isolated re-issue
path)
Refs #8460 (workspace_validation_failed local-only project workspaces —
this PR extends the recovery card UI for this case)

**Subsystem affected:** ui/ — React + Vite board UI

**Problem or motivation:** When Paperclip records a workspace branch for
an agent run and the live checkout disagrees (diverged HEAD, renamed
branch, stale worktree), the issue recovery card surfaces a generic
`workspace_validation` error. The operator sees "run declined" but has
no visibility into the expected vs. actual branch, the relevant commit
SHAs, or whether the branches even share ancestry. There is no one-click
path to re-issue the task on a clean isolated workspace — the operator
must manually reconstruct the task from scratch.

**Proposed solution:** Extend `IssueRecoveryActionCard` to:
1. Render a divergence-diagnosis panel from the `recoveryEvidence`
field: expected branch, live branch, short SHAs for both, an
ancestry-verdict badge (`forward-only` / `diverged` / `ancestry
unknown`), and the server's `plainLanguageReason`.
2. Add Action 3 "Re-issue on isolated workspace" — a confirm-gated
button that calls `issuesApi.create` with `executionWorkspacePreference:
isolated_workspace` and `workspaceStrategy.baseRef` set to the live
branch (SHA fallback when detached). The current workspace is never
mutated.
3. Wire `onReissueIsolated` / `reissuePending` through `IssueChatThread`
→ `IssueDetail` so the operator sees an immediate success toast and is
navigated to the new task.

**Alternatives considered:** Showing divergence details only in a
tooltip (rejected — too easy to miss). Providing a "force-reset the
workspace" action (rejected — destructive, no audit trail, doesn't fix
stale-branch root cause). Isolated re-issue via isolated workspace was
the clearest safe path.

## What Changed

- `IssueRecoveryActionCard.tsx` — Added `DiagnosisPanel` sub-component
rendered for `workspace_validation` / `git_worktree_branch_incoherence`
recovery kinds: displays expected vs. live branch, short SHAs,
ancestry-verdict badge, and plain-language reason. Added Action 3
confirm-popover with `onReissueIsolated` callback and `reissuePending`
loading state. Kept existing Action 1 and Action 2 unchanged.
- `IssueChatThread.tsx` — Threaded `onReissueIsolated` and
`reissuePending` props down to `IssueRecoveryActionCard`.
- `IssueDetail.tsx` — Implemented `handleReissueIsolated`: calls
`issuesApi.create` with `executionWorkspacePreference:
isolated_workspace` + `workspaceStrategy.baseRef` derived from live
branch / SHA; shows a success toast and navigates to the new task on
completion.
- `IssueRecoveryActionCard.test.tsx` — Added 19 unit tests covering
diagnosis-panel rendering, verdict label rendering, base-ref derivation
(branch-first then detached-HEAD SHA fallback), and action gating.

## Verification

```bash
# Unit tests — 19/19 pass
pnpm vitest run ui/src/components/IssueRecoveryActionCard.test.tsx

# Typecheck — 0 new errors
pnpm typecheck
```

Manual browser validation deferred to QA — see Risks.

## Risks

- **Re-issue creates a new task** — the original task remains unchanged.
This is intentional (safe default), but operators should be aware both
tasks exist after re-issue.
- **Base-ref derivation falls back to the live HEAD SHA when detached.**
SHA-based worktrees are valid for isolated re-issue but may surprise
operators expecting a branch name.
- **Browser-level end-to-end validation not included here.** Toast,
navigation, and full create-flow are covered by integration QA in a
follow-up pass.
- **Low overall risk** — no new endpoints, no data mutations on existing
records, no PII or telemetry changes. Composes the existing
`issuesApi.create` endpoint; all new behavior is additive.

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

threads.

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this exact change.

Problem/motivation:

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/context/LiveUpdatesProvider.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/services/heartbeat-run-runtime-status.test.ts

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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

Aron Prins 4a2447da3c [codex] Fix markdown contrast on accent bubbles (#8689)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The issue/task chat subsystem renders board and agent comments as
markdown inside chat bubbles.
> - Human board comments use a saturated blue bubble so the message can
be distinguished from agent output.
> - The shared `.paperclip-markdown` rule forced `var(--foreground)` for
body text and related markdown elements.
> - On the blue bubble, that foreground color is too dark, so
paragraphs, lists, links, and emphasis lose contrast.
> - This pull request adds an explicit on-accent markdown treatment for
blue/current-user message bubbles.
> - The benefit is readable markdown without changing neutral markdown
surfaces elsewhere in the app.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Fixes #8688

## What Changed

- Added a `paperclip-markdown-on-accent` class for markdown rendered on
accent-colored message bubbles.
- Updated current-user issue chat messages to use the accent-safe
markdown class.
- Added CSS overrides for body text, list markers, headings, emphasis,
links, blockquotes, and inline code on accent backgrounds.
- Added a regression test proving current-user blue-bubble markdown
receives the accent-safe class.

## Risks

Low risk. The new color treatment is opt-in and only applied to
current-user issue chat markdown on accent bubbles. Neutral comment,
document, artifact, and skill markdown surfaces keep the existing
`.paperclip-markdown` colors.

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.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex coding agent based on GPT-5, with repository tool use,
shell execution, git/GitHub CLI operations, and local verification
commands. Earlier commits in this branch were assisted by Paperclip

DottaandPaperclip 8e21e31a1a Fix UI detail regressions (#8613)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The board UI needs to render issue details, comments, properties,
and rich external object labels clearly during normal operator
workflows.
> - Three small UI regressions made those workflows harder to scan: rich
object URLs could show weak labels, interrupting comments could briefly
flash in the wrong state, and watchdog labels could overflow the
properties panel.
> - These are related quality fixes in the same UI surface, with focused
regression coverage for each behavior.
> - This pull request groups the fixes so they go through normal review
instead of bypassing CI.
> - The benefit is a quieter, more predictable issue detail experience
for board operators.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue was found for these regressions after searching
related PRs and issues.

### Pre-submission checklist

- Existing open and closed GitHub issues and PRs were searched for
duplicates.
- The fixes are based on current `master` behavior.
- The regressions originate in Paperclip board UI code, not an adapter,
API provider, or local configuration.

### What happened?

In the board UI, three issue-detail regressions made normal review
workflows harder to scan:

- URL-rich external objects could fall back to a weak generic label
instead of showing a useful URL label.
- An interrupting issue comment could briefly flash through the wrong
state while issue run data refreshed.
- Long watchdog property instructions could truncate or overflow instead
of wrapping inside the properties panel.

### Expected behavior

- URL-rich external objects should surface a clear URL label.
- Interrupting comments should stay visually stable while live run state
refreshes.
- Long watchdog property values should wrap within the available
properties panel width.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Open an issue detail view that includes URL-rich external object
metadata, an interrupting run/comment state, or long watchdog
instructions.
2. Observe the rendered issue detail thread and properties panel.
3. Compare the rendered label, comment state, and watchdog row wrapping
against the expected stable/readable behavior above.

### Paperclip version or commit

Current `master`, fixed by this PR branch at
`1c763001c9a16fa6cf3faad6f58a83c4b202c928`.

### Deployment mode

Local dev (`pnpm dev`) / board UI.

### Installation method

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

### Agent adapter(s) involved

Not adapter-specific (core board UI bug).

### Database mode

Not database-related.

### Access context

Board operator UI.

### Relevant logs or output

Not applicable.

### Relevant config

Not applicable.

### Additional context

The PR includes focused regression tests for all three behaviors.

https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/8613#issuecomment-4794863305.

### Privacy checklist

- All pasted output was reviewed for sensitive data; this PR body
contains no private config, logs, or internal instance links.

## What Changed

- Prefer direct URLs as rich object labels when rendering external
object metadata.
- Keep interrupting issue comments from flashing through the wrong
thread state while issue chat data is refreshing.
- Allow watchdog property labels to wrap cleanly inside the issue
properties panel.
- Added focused regression coverage for the external object helper,
issue detail interrupt behavior, and watchdog property wrapping.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/lib/external-objects.test.ts
ui/src/lib/issue-chat-messages.test.ts
ui/src/components/IssueProperties.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/IssueDetail.test.tsx`

## Risks

Low risk. The changes are scoped to UI rendering/state handling and add
regression coverage for the touched behavior. No database, API,
workflow, lockfile, or migration changes are included.

DottaandPaperclip 841742fc1a [codex] Graduate experimental conference room defaults (#8628)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The board UI has been graduating experimental conference-room task
experiences into the default issue and onboarding flows
> - Several task UI improvements were still coupled to the Conference
Room Chat experimental flag even though they are useful outside chat
itself
> - That coupling meant disabling chat also reverted unrelated defaults
such as work-mode labels, task status colors, team creation copy, and
the graduated issue thread
> - This pull request keeps chat-specific gating scoped to chat while
making the graduated task UI the default experience
> - The benefit is that operators can use the newer task workflows
without needing to enable the separate chat experiment

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this exact change.

### Problem or motivation

The Conference Room Chat experimental flag was controlling unrelated
task UI defaults, which made non-chat workflows regress when chat was
disabled.

### Proposed solution

Remove that flag from task-thread, work-mode, onboarding, status, and
team-creation presentation paths while leaving chat-specific behavior
separately gated.

### Alternatives considered

Keeping the flag as a broad umbrella until chat graduates would avoid a
behavior change, but it keeps unrelated UI improvements hidden behind
the wrong capability switch.

### Roadmap alignment

Checked `ROADMAP.md`; this is focused graduation/polish for existing UI
surfaces rather than a new roadmap-level core feature.

Related search:

- Searched open PRs and issues for `conference room chat experimental
flag`: no matches.
- Searched open PRs and issues for `graduated issue thread`: no matches.

## What Changed

- Removes Conference Room Chat flag branching from task-thread
rendering, work-mode labels, task status colors, and team creation copy.
- Makes the onboarding completion path create/reuse an onboarding
project, create the first assigned task, and send the user to the
dashboard instead of chat.
- Deletes the legacy onboarding wizard and classic task-thread files now
that the graduated flow is the default.
- Updates focused UI tests and affected E2E specs for the default task
experience.
- Adds a user-visible onboarding error if restored state is missing the
company or agent required for launch.

## Verification

- `pnpm run preflight:workspace-links && pnpm exec vitest run
ui/src/components/NewIssueDialog.test.tsx
ui/src/components/OnboardingWizardVariant.test.tsx
ui/src/components/RunChatSurface.test.tsx

ui/src/components/StatusBadge.test.tsx ui/src/lib/agent-order.test.ts
ui/src/lib/onboarding-launch.test.ts ui/src/lib/work-mode-meta.test.ts
ui/src/pages/IssueDetail.test.tsx`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
- `npx playwright test --config tests/e2e/playwright.config.ts --list
tests/e2e/conference-room-typing-intro.spec.ts
tests/e2e/planning-mode-visual-verification.spec.ts`
- Attempted targeted Playwright execution locally, but this host is
missing Chromium system libraries (`libatk1.0-0t64`, `libatspi2.0-0t64`,
`libxcomposite1`, `libxdamage1`, `libxfixes3`, `libxrandr2`, `libgbm1`,
`libasound2t64`). CI runs the specs in the proper Actions environment.

## Risks

- Medium UI behavior risk: this intentionally changes the default
experience for users who have not enabled Conference Room Chat.
- Medium onboarding risk: completion now creates/reuses a project and
creates the first task instead of only navigating.
- Low migration risk: no database schema or migration changes are
included.
- The PR avoids `pnpm-lock.yaml` and `.github/workflows` changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-5-class coding model, tool-enabled local repository
workflow with shell, git, and test execution.

800dab1c64 Render sandbox runtime status in issue threads (#8594)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The issue thread is where operators watch active agent work and
decide whether a run is healthy.
> - Backend runtime-progress plumbing can expose a concise current
status, but users only benefit if the issue UI renders it in context.
> - The UI should show that current status as part of the active run
surface without turning it into durable transcript content.
> - This pull request adds the issue-thread rendering and message
formatting needed for sandbox runtime status.
> - The benefit is that active sandbox setup phases are visible from the
normal issue detail view.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #248

No exact public GitHub issue was found for this UI rendering work. The
underlying problem is that active sandboxed runs can have backend
progress state without any concise issue-thread display, leaving users
to infer whether setup is still moving. This PR adds the UI layer on top
of the runtime-status API branch.

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

## What Changed

- Included current runtime status in the heartbeat API client shape.
- Rendered active run status text in the issue chat thread when
available.
- Updated issue-chat message formatting helpers for runtime status
display.
- Added focused component and formatting tests for the new active-run
status behavior.

## Verification

- Local PII scan before push: high-confidence secret patterns, internal
issue links, local user paths, and private URL patterns checked across
all three split diffs; no real secrets or internal links found.
- `git diff --check feat/sandbox-runtime-status..feat/sandbox-status-ui`
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/components/IssueChatThread.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/issue-chat-messages.test.ts` — 2 files, 91 tests passed.
- `pnpm run typecheck` passed on `feat/sandbox-status-ui`.
- `pnpm run build` passed on `feat/sandbox-status-ui`; Vite reported
existing CSS `::highlight` and chunk-size warnings.
- Visual evidence (desktop + mobile) is attached to the tracking issue
rather than committed to the repo.

## Risks

- This PR is stacked on the runtime-status API branch and depends on
that response/event shape.
- The status line is intentionally concise; long or sensitive status
content should continue to be bounded/redacted by the backend.
- The visual change is limited to active issue-thread runs with current
runtime status data.

discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. Feature PRs that overlap

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip e68188c438 fix: upstream deployed document-comment, routine-annotation, workspace & board-polling fixes (#8536)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - This change touches several already-shipped subsystems —
document-comment annotations, the selected-agent Conference Room chat
surface, routine description annotations, workspace-operation tracking,
and the board polling/inbox UI
> - A batch of incremental fixes and two small backend additions had
accumulated on a local mainline and were deployed to a live instance,
but never landed upstream — so each `origin/master` sync kept
re-diverging
> - Leaving them un-upstreamed means the same delta has to be re-merged
on every sync and risks being lost or silently reverted
> - This pull request rebases that delta cleanly on top of current
`origin/master` (preserving recent upstream work such as reusable
sandbox leases and the relation-list collapse controls) and brings it up
for review
> - The benefit is that mainline and the deployed instance converge, and
these fixes/additions get normal review + CI + Greptile coverage

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No single GitHub issue tracks this; it is a bundle of bug fixes and two
small feature additions. Following the issue-template fields:

**Bug fixes (what was wrong → what this does):**
- Document comments rendered out of document order, didn't live-update
across clients, swallowed save failures, and lost the markdown text
selection on re-render. Now: doc-order sort, live updates, surfaced
save-failure state, stable selection across re-renders.
- The board polling hot path returned oversized payloads on every poll.
Now: an opt-in `summary` projection trims the heartbeat-run list
payload.
- Assorted UI fixes: sidebar nav peek/streamlining edge cases, markdown
file-viewer re-mount/line-height issues on iOS Safari, inbox badge/skill
deep-link tab selection, and `⌘.` work-mode cycling on iOS.

**Feature additions:**
- `workspace_operations.issue_id` — associate a workspace operation with
the issue that triggered it (new migration `0106`, schema, service,
shared type).
- Routine **description annotations** — comment threads on a routine's
description document, mirroring issue document annotations (new
migration `0107`, `routine_documents` schema, routes/service,
editable-sections UI).
- Selected-agent **Conference Room chat** surface wiring and live
issue-thread updates.

**Related PR:** #8229 (`feat(control-plane): add annotation and
workspace controls`, draft) covers overlapping
annotation/workspace-control territory — flagging it so a reviewer can
reconcile the two rather than double-merging.

## What Changed

- `feat(workspace)`: `workspace_operations.issue_id` migration +
schema/service/type; issue workspace property controls reconciled with
upstream's evolved "Service" row.
- `feat(routines)`: routine description annotations —
`routine_documents` schema, migration `0107`, routes/service,
`editable-sections` UI.
- `fix(document-comments)`: doc-order sort, live updates, save-failure
surfacing, stable markdown selection (+ storybook story, rerender test).
- `feat(chat)`: selected-agent Conference Room chat surface and live
issue-thread updates (`LiveUpdatesProvider`, `issue-chat-messages`,
interactions service).
- `perf(board)`: opt-in `summary` projection for the board
polling/heartbeat-run list payload, plus assorted sidebar / file-viewer
/ inbox / IssueProperties UI fixes.

Organized into 5 logical commits. Migrations are numbered incrementally
after upstream's latest (`0105`) — `0106` then `0107`, no journal
collision.

## Verification

- Built by 3-way merging the deployed delta onto current
`origin/master`; the only merge conflict (`IssueProperties.test.tsx`,
two adjacent test blocks) was resolved in favor of upstream's evolved
"green service link above the workspace row" layout, which matches the
merged component's rendered output.
- Confirmed recent upstream work is preserved post-merge: reusable
sandbox lease teardown (`#8513`), the IssueProperties relation-list
collapse controls, and the sidebar streamlined-nav default.
- Confirmed the net diff vs `origin/master` is exactly the intended
feature delta (65 files) and that overlapping server files (`issues.ts`,
`agents.ts`, `heartbeat.ts`) only add feature code without disturbing
upstream logic.
- This delta is already running on a live deployed instance.
- Full typecheck/test suite + Greptile to run in CI (see checklist).

## Risks

- Two new migrations (`0106`, `0107`). Both are additive (new table /
new nullable column) and ordered after upstream's `0105`; no data
backfill, low risk. If another migration-bearing PR merges first,
renumber before merge.
- Largest blast radius is in the merged overlapping UI/service files;
covered by the existing test suites for those files plus CI.
- Overlaps thematically with draft PR #8229 — reviewers should reconcile
rather than merge both blindly.

## Model Used

(git, shell). Agentic coding workflow.

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.

Dotta 1ca3331c33 [codex] Fix mobile issue chat spacing (#8493)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The issue page is one of the main surfaces where operators read
agent updates and manage task relationships.
> - On narrow mobile viewports, agent chat bubbles kept the desktop
`max-w-[85%]` cap, leaving the right side overly indented.
> - The same issue sidebar can also become noisy when many blockers or
sub-tasks are attached to a task.
> - This pull request adjusts the mobile chat bubble width while
preserving the existing desktop cap.
> - It also limits long issue-relation previews until the operator
expands them, then allows collapsing them again.
> - The benefit is a denser, more readable mobile issue page without
changing the underlying issue data model.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this internal report.

Bug report:
- On mobile issue pages, agent chat bubbles are unnecessarily narrow
because the desktop max-width applies at all breakpoints.
- Long blocked-by and sub-task relation lists can dominate the issue
properties area before the operator needs the full list.
- Related prior work: #4861 improved issue-thread scale and markdown
polish, but did not address this mobile bubble width regression.

## What Changed

- Added a responsive agent-comment bubble width class so mobile bubbles
use `max-w-[calc(100%-0.5rem)]` and desktop keeps `sm:max-w-[85%]`.
- Added test coverage for the responsive agent bubble classes.
- Added a five-item preview limit for blocked-by and sub-task relation
pills in issue properties.
- Added an inline `and N more...` / `show less` toggle for long
blocked-by and sub-task relation lists.
- Reset relation preview expansion when the `IssueProperties` panel
receives a different `issue.id`.
- Added component test coverage for collapsed, expanded, re-collapsed,
and issue-switch reset states.

## Verification

- Passed: `pnpm exec vitest run
ui/src/components/IssueProperties.test.tsx` (`27 passed`).
- Attempted: `pnpm exec vitest run
ui/src/components/IssueChatThread.test.tsx`.
- Result: failed before reaching the changed assertion because the
existing suite imports `act` from `react`, which resolves to a
non-function in this local Vitest environment.
- Scope: 50 render tests fail with `TypeError: act is not a function`; 8
non-render tests pass.
- Attempted: `pnpm --dir ui exec vitest run
src/components/IssueChatThread.test.tsx` with the same `act is not a
function` result.
- Passed: Greptile rerun reported Confidence Score 5/5 on commit
`e0f9c40b7faedcfb877d4f4b0e9f2c77a6593c16`.
- Passed: all latest-head PR checks/statuses are green, including
Typecheck + Release Registry, Build, general tests, serialized server
suites, e2e, canary dry run, policy, security review, Socket, Snyk, and
Greptile.

## Risks

Low risk:
- The chat change only alters max-width classes on agent comment bubbles
and preserves the desktop cap.
- The relation-list change is presentational; hidden blockers and
sub-tasks remain in memory and can expand/collapse in place.
- Expansion state now resets when navigating between issues in a reused
panel instance.
- Main residual risk is visual polish on real mobile devices because
local browser screenshot verification was not run in this heartbeat;
screenshots were not added because the source task explicitly requested
not adding screenshots/images unless specifically part of the work.

> - The handoff preview row sat flush against nearby composer UI, making
the warning and send-control area feel crowded.
> - This pull request adds vertical spacing around the visible handoff
preview row and avoids rendering a spacer when there is no preview.
> - The benefit is a cleaner, less cramped composer layout without
changing handoff behavior.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: PAP-11281
Refs: PAP-11598

No public GitHub issue exists for this Paperclip task, so the issue is
described inline using the bug report template fields.

### What happened?

In the issue chat composer, the handoff preview row could render flush
against the mention coach warning above it and the send controls below
it.

### Expected behavior

When the handoff preview is visible, it should have a small amount of
vertical breathing room. When there is no preview, no empty wrapper
should add phantom margin.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Open an issue thread.
2. Type a reply that produces an active handoff preview near the mention
warning/send controls.
3. Inspect the composer spacing around the handoff preview row.

### Paperclip version or commit

Reproduced on the PAP-11281 work branch before this fix.

### Deployment mode

Local dev worktree.

## What Changed

- Added a `my-2` wrapper around `ComposerHandoffPreviewRow` in
`IssueChatThread`.
- Guarded the wrapper behind a named
`shouldRenderComposerHandoffPreview` helper so empty previews do not add
phantom vertical margin.
- Added a focused UI unit test covering the empty-preview and
visible-preview spacing guard.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/components/IssueChatComposerHandoffPreview.test.ts` passed locally.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` passed locally.
- `git diff --check` passed before the follow-up commit.
- Reviewed the one-file UI diff and focused test diff.

Screenshots: intentionally omitted for this tiny spacing-only branch
because PAP-11598 explicitly says not to add design screenshots or
images to this PR unless they are specifically part of the work. No
screenshot or wireframe image files are committed.

## Risks

Low risk. This is a narrowly scoped layout-only change in the composer.
The main risk is slightly different vertical rhythm around the handoff
preview row.

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`.

6756ae8289 fix(ui): restore issue copy buttons on HTTP (#8212)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the control plane operators use to run AI-agent
companies, so board actions like copying task state need to work
reliably on the live board UI.
> - The affected surface is the issue detail and issue chat UI, where
operators copy task descriptions and comment text during triage and
handoff.
> - On self-hosted HTTP deployments, the async Clipboard API can exist
but fail, which breaks these copy buttons silently.
> - The internal FMAI reproduction pointed specifically at task
description copy and task comment copy in the issue view.
> - There is already an overlapping upstream PR,
[#6353](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/6353), but it is
currently `CONFLICTING` and does not provide a mergeable path.
> - This pull request adds a shared clipboard helper with a fallback
path, wires the task-detail and task-thread copy actions through it, and
locks the behavior in with targeted tests.
> - The benefit is that copy buttons keep working on HTTP self-hosted
boards without changing behavior for secure deployments.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- Fixes #3529
- Refs #6353

## What Changed

- Added `ui/src/lib/clipboard.ts` with a shared `copyTextToClipboard()`
helper that tries the async Clipboard API first and falls back to
`document.execCommand("copy")` when that path is blocked.
- Updated `IssueDetail.tsx` so the task-level "Copy task as markdown"
action uses the shared helper.
- Updated both `IssueChatThread.tsx` and `IssueChatThreadClassic.tsx` so
task comment copy actions, code-block copy actions, and system-notice
copy actions use the shared helper.
- Added focused regression coverage in `IssueDetail.test.tsx` and
`IssueChatThread.test.tsx` for insecure-context fallback behavior.

## Verification

- `corepack pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/pages/IssueDetail.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueChatThread.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueChatThreadSystemNotice.test.tsx`
- `corepack pnpm exec tsc -p ui/tsconfig.json --noEmit`
- Manual reviewer check:
  - Run Paperclip over HTTP.
  - Open an issue detail page.
  - Use `Copy task as markdown` and a comment `Copy message` action.
  - Confirm both copy successfully instead of silently failing.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change is scoped to clipboard helpers and the specific
issue-detail / issue-thread copy actions.
- The fallback relies on `document.execCommand("copy")`, which is legacy
browser behavior, but it is only used when the modern clipboard path is
unavailable or blocked.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-5 Codex via Codex local adapter, tool-enabled coding
workflow with terminal, git, and file-editing support.

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

67b22d872f [codex] Clarify interrupt handoffs and scoped wake semantics (#7855)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The issue thread is the operator surface where comments, assignee
changes, pauses, resumes, and wakeups turn human intent into agent
execution.
> - Interrupting a live run and handing work to another assignee needs
clear semantics so the product does not accidentally keep work alive,
wake the wrong participant, or hide why an agent stopped.
> - Comment-driven wakes also need strict boundaries so closed, blocked,
and dependency-driven work only resumes when there is real actionable
input.
> - This pull request codifies the interrupt handoff contract,
implements backend scheduling behavior, and gives the UI clearer
handoff/pause language.
> - The benefit is a more inspectable and predictable task lifecycle for
both operators and agents.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Paperclip issue: `PAP-10664` / `PAP-10751`.

Problem: interrupting or reassigning live agent work could be ambiguous
in the UI and backend. Operators needed clearer feedback about whether a
handoff wakes an agent, what pause/cancel affects, and when comments
should revive execution. The backend also needed stronger tests around
comment wake boundaries, retry supersession, and structured agent
mention dispatch.

Related GitHub PR search found broad workflow-adjacent PRs #5082, #6359,
and #4083, but no exact duplicate for this head branch or
interrupt-handoff scope.

## What Changed

- Added an interrupt handoff semantics document covering destination
behavior, wake expectations, and live-run interruption states.
- Implemented backend interrupt handoff behavior and comment wake/reopen
handling in issue routes/services and heartbeat scheduling.
- Hardened structured agent mention dispatch so mentions resolve through
the intended dispatch path.
- Added UI helpers and components for handoff chips, wake rows,
interrupt banners, pause-affects summaries, and composer guidance.
- Updated the issue properties assignee picker and issue chat/composer
surfaces to make interrupt/reassign behavior clearer.
- Added backend, UI utility, component, and Storybook coverage for the
new behavior.
- Stabilized the new UI component tests with a local `flushSync`-backed
act helper matching existing repo practice in this dependency set.
- Addressed Greptile feedback by threading historical run `errorCode`
through issue-run data and operator-interrupted chat labels.
- Addressed Greptile's cancel ordering concern by terminating/deleting
in-memory heartbeat processes before cancellation status persistence,
with regression coverage for DB update failure.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run

## Risks

- Medium: changes touch issue comments, wake scheduling, and live-run
interruption semantics, so regressions could affect when agents resume
or stay stopped.
- Medium: UI copy and state grouping for assignee changes may need
reviewer tuning after product review.
- Low migration risk: no database schema migration is included.
- The branch was created before the latest `origin/master` commits;
reviewers should confirm CI merge-base behavior and resolve any merge
conflicts if GitHub reports them.

468edd8b22 Add workspace file viewer and artifact links (#7681)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agent work is issue-centered, and reviewers often need to inspect
files, artifacts, and path references produced during that work.
> - Before this branch, workspace-relative paths and artifact file
references were not first-class inspectable objects in the board UI.
> - Safe file viewing needs shared resource contracts, server-side
workspace boundary checks, and UI that opens files without exposing
arbitrary host paths.
> - The workspace file viewer branch needed to stay as one active PR and
be rebased onto current `paperclipai/paperclip:master` for review.
> - This pull request adds the workspace file resource API, issue-page
file viewer and browser, markdown file-reference links, and artifact
file chips.
> - The benefit is that board users can inspect relevant files from
issue context while preserving workspace boundaries and auditability.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this branch. Internal Paperclip
issues: `PAP-1953`, `PAP-10539`, `PAP-10733`.

Problem / motivation:
- Board users need to open workspace-relative files mentioned by agents
or attached as work-product metadata without switching to a terminal.
- The UI needs to support both direct file-path opening and workspace
browsing/searching from an issue page.
- The server must enforce company access, workspace boundaries, size
limits, rate limits, and safe audit logging.

Related PR:
- Prior closed attempt: #4442
- Single active PR for this branch: #7681

## What Changed

- Added shared workspace file resource types, validators, and
workspace-file `resourceRef` metadata validation for work products.
- Added server routes/services for resolving, listing, and previewing
workspace-relative files with access checks, scan caps, list-specific
limits, and audit logging.
- Added the issue file viewer provider, sheet, workspace browser,
command-palette action, markdown workspace-file autolinks, and artifact
file chips.
- Updated issue workspace UI and stories/tests for file browsing and
workspace file opening.
- Rebased the branch onto current `paperclipai/paperclip:master` and
updated the existing single PR branch.
- Addressed current-head Greptile follow-ups by applying `offset`
consistently across search/recent/changed file listings, restoring
stopped-service port ownership checks before auto-port reuse, and
stabilizing the workspace browser pagination test.

## Verification

Current local verification after rebase to `public/master`:
- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/work-product.test.ts

server/src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts` - 2 files passed, 90
tests passed.
- `pnpm -r --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` - passed.
- Confirmed branch is `0` behind and `46` ahead of current
`public/master` after rebase and follow-up commits.
- Confirmed the PR diff does not include `pnpm-lock.yaml`.
- Confirmed the PR diff does not include `.github/workflows` changes.
- Searched GitHub for duplicate or related workspace file viewer
PRs/issues; #4442 is the prior closed attempt and this PR is the single
active PR for the branch.
- No screenshots were committed; the task explicitly asked not to add
design screenshots or images unless they were part of the work.

Current remote verification on head
`a698a7bc10137baf7d25bd5722e1d6e0343387c1`:
- Greptile Review - success, 64 files reviewed, 0 comments added, no
unresolved Greptile review threads.
- PR workflow `verify` - success.
- Typecheck + Release Registry, General tests, workspace test shards,
serialized server suites, Build, Canary Dry Run, e2e, Socket, and Snyk -
success.
- `security-review` - neutral, with output saying a draft advisory was
filed for maintainer review and is not a merge block.
- `commitperclip PR Review / review` - cancelled after the security gate
detected flags and timed out while creating/reviewing the advisory. I
reran it once and it cancelled the same way; no actionable code/test
failure was exposed in the job logs.

## Risks

- This is a broad UI/server feature PR, so review needs to pay attention
to route authorization, workspace boundary handling, and markdown
autolink false positives.
- Workspace browsing intentionally caps list results and scan depth;
very large workspaces may require users to refine search terms.
- Remote workspace preview remains unavailable until remote file-access
support is implemented.
- The neutral commitperclip security-review advisory needs maintainer
review, but the check output says it is not a merge block.

discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. Feature PRs that overlap
with planned core work may need to be redirected - check the roadmap

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, GPT-5 coding agent in a Paperclip/Codex local tool-use
environment, medium reasoning, with shell/GitHub CLI tool use for branch
inspection, verification, rebase, PR update, Greptile review, and CI
inspection.

DottaandPaperclip 35c31ca63f [codex] Add live-run stop finalization actions (#7679)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Operators supervise live agent runs from the issue detail chat
surface.
> - The existing run menu can pause/stop work, but operators sometimes
need to stop the active run and immediately finalize the task outcome.
> - Doing those as separate actions is slower and easier to leave
half-finished.
> - This pull request adds explicit live-run finalization actions to the
issue chat run menu.
> - The benefit is a clearer operator path for stopping a live run and
marking the task done or cancelled in one ordered flow.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this internal Paperclip task. Internal
task: PAP-10535.

## Subsystem affected

ui/ — React + Vite board UI.

## Problem or motivation

Operators can stop an active run from the issue detail chat, but
finalizing the issue outcome requires a separate status action after the
run is stopped. That extra step makes live-run finalization slower and
easier to leave incomplete.

## Proposed solution

Add explicit issue chat run-menu actions for `Stop and cancel` and `Stop
and done`, where each action cancels the active heartbeat run before
updating the issue status.

## Alternatives considered

Keep the existing two-step flow of cancelling the run first and then
changing issue status separately. That preserves current behavior but
does not solve the operator workflow gap.

## Roadmap alignment

This is a small targeted UI control-plane improvement for supervising
live agent work. It does not duplicate a planned core roadmap item found
in `ROADMAP.md`.

This PR was split from the local `master` branch on June 7, 2026. It
covers the UI-only live-run finalization action. I searched GitHub for
duplicate/related PRs; the results were broader run-control PRs, not
this exact issue-detail menu action.

## What Changed

- Added optional `runFinalizationActions` support to `IssueChatThread`
assistant message run menus.
- Added `Stop and cancel` and `Stop and done` actions on the issue
detail chat tab.
- Each action cancels the active heartbeat run before updating the issue
status.
- Added focused UI coverage to assert cancellation happens before the
status update.
- Addressed Greptile feedback for partial-failure messaging and
duplicate run-state invalidation.

## Verification

- `git diff --check origin/master..HEAD`
- `git diff --check`
- `NODE_ENV=test pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/pages/IssueDetail.test.tsx`
- Storybook screenshot capture for the live-run menu before and after
the finalization actions.

## Screenshots

Before: existing live-run menu only offered the normal stop action.

![Before live-run
menu](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/paperclipai/paperclip/codex/live-run-stop-finalization/screenshots/PAP-10535-live-run-menu-before.png)

After: the live-run menu includes `Stop and cancel` and `Stop and done`.

![After live-run
menu](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/paperclipai/paperclip/codex/live-run-stop-finalization/screenshots/PAP-10535-live-run-menu-after.png)

## Risks

- Medium UI behavior risk: the new actions expose faster finalization
controls from the live-run menu. They are gated through the existing
issue detail management surface and still use the existing run cancel
and issue update APIs.
- Low migration risk: no schema, API contract, or dependency changes.

discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. Feature PRs that overlap

first. See `CONTRIBUTING.md`.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex coding agent based on GPT-5, with shell, git, GitHub CLI,
local test execution, and Playwright browser screenshot capture. Exact
hosted model variant and context-window size were not exposed by the
runtime.

2e74d32871 PAP-10430: split Issue-to-Task copy migration (#7651)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The board UI is the operator surface where users create, assign,
monitor, and review work items.
> - The product language is moving toward "tasks" for user-facing work
items while the internal API and database still use "issues".
> - PR #7543 bundled this copy migration with broader
information-architecture work, which made the branch too large for
Greptile review.
> - This pull request peels the Issue-to-Task copy migration into a
smaller, independently reviewable change.
> - The benefit is clearer user-facing terminology, less agent confusion
via the Paperclip skill note, and a smaller PR that Greptile can review.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #7645
Refs #7543
Refs PAP-10430

This PR was split out of #7543 so the Issue-to-Task copy migration can
be reviewed separately and the remaining IA PR can fall under Greptile's
file limit.

## What Changed

- Preserves Scott Tong's original `PAP-57` copy-only commit, with author
and co-author credit intact, to rename user-facing "Issues" copy to
"Tasks" across the UI while keeping routes/API/internal symbols as
`issue`.
- Updates onboarding and release-smoke browser selectors from `Create &
Open Issue` to `Create & Open Task`.
- Adds a terminology note to `skills/paperclip/SKILL.md` clarifying that
task and issue refer to the same Paperclip work item.
- Resolves the only cherry-pick conflict by keeping current search
artifacts support and changing visible search copy to "tasks".

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui build` passed.
- `NODE_ENV=test pnpm exec vitest run
ui/src/components/IssuesList.test.tsx ui/src/components/Sidebar.test.tsx
ui/src/components/NewIssueDialog.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/IssueDetail.test.tsx` passed: 4 files, 66 tests.
- `git diff --check origin/master...HEAD` passed.
- Diff is 80 files, below Greptile's 100-file limit.
- Before/after UI copy examples: "Issues" -> "Tasks", "New Issue" ->
"New Task", "Create & Open Issue" -> "Create & Open Task".

## Risks

- Medium copy-risk: this intentionally changes user-facing terminology
broadly while keeping internal issue identifiers and routes unchanged.
- Some docs and APIs still say `issue`; the skill note clarifies this so
agents do not treat task and issue as separate entities.
- Browser-level visual validation is expected from CI because this local
container is missing usable browser dependencies.

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

Scott Tong authored the original `PAP-57` copy migration, assisted by
Claude Opus 4.8 and Paperclip agents per the preserved commit metadata.
Codex / GPT-5-class coding agent with shell, GitHub CLI, and repository
access performed the PR split, conflict resolution, skill note, and
verification.

DottaandPaperclip 4d5322c821 [codex] Add checkbox confirmation issue interactions (#7649)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agent work is coordinated through issues, comments, interactions,
and approval-style handoffs.
> - Existing issue-thread interactions could ask questions, suggest
tasks, and request confirmation, but they did not support a structured
checkbox confirmation payload for choosing one or more options.
> - That gap made board/user confirmations harder to validate
consistently across API callers, plugin helpers, CLI tooling, and the
UI.
> - This pull request adds the shared checkbox confirmation contract,
server handling, client helpers, and issue-thread UI needed to render
and submit structured selections.
> - The benefit is that agents can request bounded multi-select
confirmations in the same audited issue-thread flow as other Paperclip
interactions.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- No public GitHub issue found for this exact branch. Internal Paperclip
issue: PAP-10415 / PAP-10441 requested creating this PR for the checkbox
confirmation issue-thread UI component work.
- GitHub duplicate search performed for checkbox confirmation /
issue-thread interaction PRs; no matching open PR was found.
- Related issue search result `#7497` was unrelated company file cleanup
work, so it is not linked as a related issue.

## What Changed

- Added shared types, validators, constants, and tests for
`request_checkbox_confirmation` interactions.
- Extended server issue-thread interaction service and routes for
checkbox confirmation creation, validation, expiration, and response
handling.
- Added CLI, MCP, and plugin SDK helper coverage so external callers can
create the new interaction shape consistently.
- Updated the issue-thread interaction UI to render checkbox
confirmations with min/max bounds, selection summaries, stale-target
states, and accept/decline flows.
- Documented the checkbox confirmation interaction contract in the
Paperclip skill/API reference.

## Verification

- Rebased cleanly on `paperclipai/paperclip` `master` fetched into
`public-gh/master` at `a4fa0eaf5`.
- Confirmed the PR diff does not include `pnpm-lock.yaml` or
`.github/workflows` changes.
- Ran focused tests with `NODE_ENV=test`:

```sh
NODE_ENV=test pnpm run preflight:workspace-links
NODE_ENV=test 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 cli/src/__tests__/issue-subresources.test.ts cli/src/__tests__/project-goal.test.ts packages/mcp-server/src/tools.test.ts packages/plugins/sdk/tests/testing-actions.test.ts
```

Result: 8 test files passed, 78 tests passed.
- CI on latest head `63b9e55` is green.
- Greptile Review passed on latest head; GraphQL review-thread check
shows all Greptile threads resolved.

## Risks

- Medium surface area because the interaction contract touches shared
validators, server routes/services, UI rendering, CLI, MCP, plugin SDK
helpers, and docs.
- No database migrations are included.
- `pnpm-lock.yaml` is intentionally excluded per repository lockfile
policy.
- UI screenshots are not attached because the task explicitly requested
not to add design screenshots or images unless they were part of the
work; component tests cover the new rendering and interaction states.

discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. Feature PRs that overlap
with planned core work may need to be redirected — check the roadmap
first. See `CONTRIBUTING.md`.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex coding agent based on GPT-5, with repository file access,
shell command execution, git/GitHub CLI tooling, and Paperclip
control-plane API access. Exact hosted model ID/context-window metadata
is not exposed inside this runtime.

DottaandPaperclip dbebf30c89 Add low-trust review containment (#7530)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is a control plane for AI-agent companies, so execution
policy and trust boundaries are part of the product's safety contract.
> - Low-trust review work needs narrower authority than normal
same-company agents because hostile PRs, comments, attachments, and
generated output can carry prompt-injection payloads.
> - The current V1 shape gives trusted workers broad company context,
which is useful for normal execution but too permissive for a reviewer
assigned to hostile content.
> - This branch adds a `low_trust_review` preset, source-trust tagging,
route-level containment, and quarantine handling so low-trust output
does not automatically flow into higher-trust wake context.
> - The branch has been rebased onto current `origin/master`, and the
low-trust migration was renumbered to `0097_low_trust_source_trust.sql`
to avoid collisions with existing `0091` through `0096` migrations.
> - Greptile feedback was addressed by tightening low-trust detection,
preserving project-level trust policy checks, fixing issue-kind
promotion lookup, removing duplicate post-lease isolation assertion,
documenting fail-closed source-trust behavior, bounding ancestry checks,
enforcing runtime issue context for CEOs, awaiting accepted-plan monitor
authorization, and making low-trust issue source-trust tagging atomic.
> - The benefit is a first production slice of deny-by-default review
containment with regression coverage for the main control-plane pivot
surfaces.

Fixes #7531.

## What Changed

- Added shared trust-policy types and validators, plus
database/source-trust fields for issues, comments, documents, and work
products.
- Implemented server enforcement for low-trust issue scope, agent
self-view redaction, secret/plugin/runtime denial paths, promotion
checks, and quarantined continuation/wake context.
- Added focused low-trust regression tests for resolver behavior, source
trust, route authorization, heartbeat preflight ordering, runtime
containment, and quarantine redaction.
- Added board UI affordances for selecting/reviewing the low-trust
preset and surfacing source-trust badges in relevant issue views.
- Added `doc/LOW-TRUST-PRESETS.md`, updated
`doc/SPEC-implementation.md`, and committed the low-trust review
contract plan under `doc/plans/`.
- Rebasing note: the original `0097_low_trust_source_trust.sql`
migration was renamed to `0097_low_trust_source_trust.sql`; the SQL uses
`ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS` so users who already applied the old-numbered
migration are not broken by the renumbered migration.

## Verification

- Rebased branch onto current `origin/master` and force-pushed with
lease to `origin/PAP-10211-low-trust-agent` at head `2719f31e3`.
- Confirmed the PR diff does not include `pnpm-lock.yaml` or
`.github/workflows` changes.
- Resolved upstream UI/comment conflicts by preserving deleted-comment
tombstone behavior and low-trust source-trust badges/metadata.
- Renumbered the low-trust source-trust migration to
`0097_low_trust_source_trust.sql`; the SQL uses `ADD COLUMN IF NOT
EXISTS` so users who already applied an old-numbered copy are not
broken.
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/lib/issue-chat-messages.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-workspace-session.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/source-trust.test.ts

- `pnpm run typecheck:build-gaps`
- `git diff --check`
- GitHub checks pass on head `2719f31e3`: build, typecheck/release

- Greptile Review passes with Confidence Score 5/5 and zero unresolved
Greptile review threads.
- No design screenshots/images were added because the task explicitly
says not to add them unless they are specifically part of the work.

## Risks

- Medium risk: this touches shared trust-policy contracts, server
authorization paths, heartbeat context generation, migration metadata,
and UI preset controls.
- Low-trust containment is intentionally deny-by-default; legitimate
future review workflows may need explicit allowlisted exceptions.
- Plugin/runtime/security surfaces are broad, so regression tests cover
the current known routes but future integrations must route through the
same containment layer.
- The PR is ready for review; GitHub checks are green and Greptile is
5/5.

DottaandPaperclip 38c185fb8b [codex] Add agent permissions and controls plan (#6386)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies by keeping
task ownership, approvals, and operator control inside one control
plane.
> - Agent permissions and plugin-hosted company settings sit on the
boundary between autonomy and governance.
> - V1 needs scoped task assignment rules, plugin extension points, and
clearer company access surfaces without weakening company boundaries.
> - The branch builds the core authorization service, plugin SDK/host
APIs, and UI simplifications needed to support those controls.
> - Paperclip EE plugin surfaces were intentionally moved out of this
core PR per review direction, so this PR now carries only the public
core/plugin infrastructure work.
> - The latest updates preserve the PAP-9937 branch changes that belong
in this PR, remove the `design/` artifacts, and exclude the experimental
`plugin-briefs` package.
> - Greptile feedback was applied through the authorization/audit paths
and the final cleanup commit was re-reviewed at 5/5 with no unresolved
Greptile threads.
> - The benefit is safer assignment control with extension hooks for
richer permission products while preserving simple defaults for normal
operators.

## What Changed

- Added scoped task-assignment authorization decisions and routed
issue/agent assignment mutations through the authorization service.
- Added plugin SDK and host APIs for company settings slots,
authorization policy/grant management, assignment previews, and bridge
invocation scope propagation.
- Simplified core company access UI and moved advanced controls behind
plugin-provided settings surfaces.
- Added retry-now affordances for blocked issue next-step notices.
- Added protected-assignment enforcement for persisted
agent/project/issue policies, including explicit-grant fallback
behavior.
- Added incremental principal-access compatibility backfill for active
agent memberships and role-default human permission grants.
- Added the Markdown code block wrap action fix from the latest branch
changes.
- Removed `design/` artifacts from the PR and removed
`packages/plugins/plugin-briefs` from the final diff.
- Addressed Greptile feedback for plugin actor sanitization, legacy
membership handling, audit pagination, unknown grant-scope metadata, and
startup test mocks.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/access-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-portability.test.ts` -> 2 files passed, 54
tests passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/access-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-portability.test.ts` -> 3 files passed, 62
tests passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/authorization-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/plugin-access-authorization-host-services.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts` -> 3 files
passed, 28 tests passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` -> passed.
- `git diff --check` -> passed.
- `node ./scripts/check-docker-deps-stage.mjs` -> passed.
- `CI=true pnpm install --frozen-lockfile --ignore-scripts` -> passed
with no lockfile update.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
ui/src/components/MarkdownBody.interaction.test.tsx` -> 1 test passed.
- `git ls-files design packages/plugins/plugin-briefs | wc -l` -> 0.
- GitHub CI on `40cd83b53` -> all checks passed, merge state `CLEAN`.
- Greptile on `40cd83b53` -> 5/5, 102 files reviewed, 0
comments/annotations added, 0 unresolved review threads.
- Confirmed the PR diff contains no `design/`,
`packages/plugins/plugin-briefs`, `pnpm-lock.yaml`, or
`.github/workflows` changes.

## Risks

- Medium: task assignment authorization paths are behaviorally stricter
for protected/private policy data, so existing plugin-authored policies
may block assignment until explicit grants or approval flows are
configured.
- Medium: plugin-host authorization APIs expand the surface area
available to trusted plugins and need careful review for company
scoping.
- Low: startup now performs a principal-access compatibility backfill,
but the migration and runtime backfill use conflict-tolerant inserts.

DottaandPaperclip 012a738729 Add ordered sub-issue navigation (#5938)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI-agent companies through company-scoped
issues, comments, and execution context.
> - The issue detail page is the board surface where operators and
agents inspect a task in its parent/child workflow.
> - Ordered sub-issues need a low-friction way to move through work
without returning to the parent list after every issue.
> - Existing issue detail navigation only covered sibling transitions
and did not continue into a parent issue's first ordered child.
> - This pull request adds ordered previous/next navigation for issue
detail views and extends it to continue from a parent or last sibling
into the first direct child.
> - The benefit is a smoother review/execution path through hierarchical
work while preserving hidden issue filtering and dependency-aware
ordering.

## What Changed

- Added `IssueSiblingNavigation` and route-state handling so issue
detail footers can link to previous/next ordered issues.
- Extended sub-issue ordering helpers to build navigation from siblings
plus direct children, including root-parent and
last-sibling-to-first-child cases.
- Added page, component, and library tests for ordered sibling
navigation, child fallback navigation, hidden issues, and link
rendering.
- Fixed the quicklook blur/click race Greptile found by deferring close
until after portaled link clicks can complete, with a regression test.
- Polished the navigation landmark label so it remains accurate when the
next target is a direct child rather than a sibling.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run src/components/IssueLinkQuicklook.test.tsx
src/lib/issue-detail-subissues.test.ts
src/components/IssueSiblingNavigation.test.tsx
src/pages/IssueDetail.test.tsx --config vitest.config.ts` from `ui/` -
31 tests passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` - passed.
- `git diff --check` - passed.
- GitHub PR checks on latest head `34046be2` - passed: Greptile Review,
verify, e2e, Canary Dry Run, policy, Snyk, and serialized server shards.
- Screenshots: not captured in this heartbeat; this PR is a draft and
the changed states are covered by focused component/page tests.

## Risks

- Low risk; this is a UI navigation addition with no database or API
contract changes.
- The main behavioral risk is navigation ordering drift if
`workflowSort` expectations change later.
- The IssueDetail navigation now waits for child issue loading, which
avoids stale child fallback links but can delay footer navigation
briefly while data loads.

DottaandPaperclip 0808b388ee [codex] Add source-scoped recovery actions (#5599)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is a control plane for autonomous AI companies, where work
must end with a clear disposition rather than ambiguous agent liveness.
> - Recovery currently detects stalled or missing-next-step issues, but
source issue recovery can become split across child recovery issues,
blockers, and comments.
> - That makes it harder for operators and agents to see who owns
recovery and what exact action is needed on the original issue.
> - Source-scoped recovery actions give the original issue a first-class
active recovery state with owner, evidence, wake policy, and resolution
outcome.
> - This pull request adds the recovery-action data model, backend
reconciliation and resolution APIs, and board UI indicators/actions.
> - The benefit is clearer stalled-work recovery without losing source
issue context or relying on comments as the liveness path.

## What Changed

- Added the `issue_recovery_actions` schema, shared
types/constants/validators, and an idempotent
`0084_issue_recovery_actions` migration ordered after current `master`
migrations.
- Updated stranded/missing-disposition recovery to create source-scoped
recovery actions, wake the recovery owner on the source issue, and avoid
locking the source issue for recovery-action wakes.
- Added API support for reading active recovery actions on issue
detail/list surfaces and resolving them with restored, blocked,
cancelled, or false-positive outcomes.
- Require blocked recovery resolutions to have an unresolved first-class
blocker, and removed the UI shortcut that could mark recovery blocked
without a blocker selection path.
- Surfaced recovery indicators/actions in the issue UI, blocker notices,
active run panels, issue rows, and Storybook coverage.
- Updated docs and focused tests for recovery semantics, ownership,
races, stale comments, and UI behavior.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issue-recovery-actions.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts
ui/src/components/IssueRecoveryActionCard.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueBlockedNotice.test.tsx ui/src/api/issues.test.ts`
— 5 files, 72 tests passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db typecheck` — passed, including
migration numbering check.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` — passed.
- Follow-up verification after blocker-resolution guard: `pnpm exec
vitest run server/src/__tests__/issue-recovery-actions.test.ts
ui/src/components/IssueRecoveryActionCard.test.tsx
ui/src/api/issues.test.ts` — 3 files, 27 tests passed.
- Follow-up `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` — passed.
- Follow-up `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` — passed.
- UI states are available in
`ui/storybook/stories/source-issue-recovery.stories.tsx`; screenshot
capture helper is `scripts/screenshot-recovery-card.cjs`.

## Risks

- Medium: recovery behavior changes from child recovery issue ownership
toward source-scoped actions, so operators may see stalled-work state in
new places.
- Migration risk is mitigated by using the next migration slot after
`master` and making the table/constraints/index creation idempotent for
anyone who previously applied the old branch-local
`0082_dizzy_master_mold` migration.
- Existing child recovery issue paths are still guarded for
already-created recovery issues, but new source-scoped flows should be
watched in CI and Greptile review.

Devin Foley a904effb96 Add experimental newest-first issue thread (#5455)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies, so issue
threads are a core operator surface for reviewing work.
> - The issue detail page is the place where humans read agent messages,
user comments, and execution context together.
> - That thread originally rendered oldest-first, which made recent
activity harder to see during active review.
> - Reversing the thread order changes navigation expectations,
timestamp placement, and the "Jump to latest" affordance, so the UI
behavior needed to move as a coherent set.
> - Because this is a visible core-product behavior shift, it also
needed a safe rollout path instead of becoming the default immediately.
> - This pull request adds the newest-first issue thread behavior behind
an Experimental setting, updates the thread UI to match that mode, and
keeps the legacy oldest-first experience unchanged by default.
> - The benefit is that reviewers can opt into a more recent-first issue
workflow without forcing a global behavior change on every Paperclip
instance.

## What Changed

- Reversed issue thread rendering so the newest comments and messages
appear first when the experiment is enabled.
- Moved the plain comment timestamp into the card header in newest-first
mode and kept the legacy timestamp placement for oldest-first mode.
- Moved the `Jump to latest` control to the bottom of the thread in
newest-first mode while leaving the existing top placement for the
legacy mode.
- Added the `Enable Newest-First Issue Thread` experimental instance
setting and wired issue detail to read that toggle.
- Added regression coverage for thread order, timestamp placement,
jump-button placement, and the issue-detail experiment toggle behavior.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm test:run`
- `pnpm build`
- Focused checks that also passed during issue review:
- `pnpm vitest run src/components/IssueChatThread.test.tsx
src/pages/IssueDetail.test.tsx` in `ui/`
- `pnpm vitest run src/__tests__/instance-settings-routes.test.ts` in
`server/`
- Manual review path:
- Enable `Instance Settings > Experimental > Enable Newest-First Issue
Thread`
- Open an issue with comments/messages and confirm newest activity
renders first, timestamps move into the header, and `Jump to latest`
sits below the thread
- Disable the experiment and confirm the legacy oldest-first behavior
returns

## Risks

- Low risk: the behavioral change is gated behind an instance-level
experimental toggle and defaults off.
- The main regression risk is thread navigation drift between the two
modes, especially around anchor scrolling and the `Jump to latest`
affordance.
- There is some UI coupling between issue-detail query state and
experimental settings fetches, so future changes in that area should
keep both modes covered.
- Screenshots are not attached in this PR body; verification is
described with automated coverage and manual steps instead.

> I checked [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md). This is a scoped issue-thread UX
improvement and rollout gate, not a duplicate of a roadmap-level planned
core feature.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex via the local `codex_local` Paperclip adapter,
GPT-5-based coding agent with terminal tool use and local code execution
in this repository worktree.

DottaandPaperclip e400315cbf Guard assigned backlog liveness (#5428)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - The issue graph and liveness recovery system decide whether assigned
work is executable or parked
> - Assigned issues created without an explicit status could silently
land in backlog, making parents look blocked with no productive wake
path
> - The server, shared validators, recovery analysis, and UI all need to
agree on that execution semantic
> - This pull request makes assigned issue creation default to `todo`,
flags assigned backlog blockers, and surfaces the state in the board
> - The benefit is that parked assigned work becomes intentional and
visible instead of creating silent liveness stalls

## What Changed

- Adds contract tests for assigned issue creation defaults.
- Defaults assigned issue creation to `todo` when status is omitted
while preserving explicit `backlog` parking.
- Exposes `resolveCreateIssueStatusDefault` through shared validators.
- Teaches liveness/blocker attention paths to distinguish assigned
backlog blockers.
- Adds UI notices, row/header badges, and issue detail safeguards for
assigned backlog blockers.
- Adds Storybook fixtures and execution-semantics documentation for the
assigned-backlog behavior.

## Verification

- `pnpm run preflight:workspace-links && pnpm exec vitest run
packages/shared/src/validators/issue.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-assigned-backlog-contract-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-blocker-attention.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-liveness.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-issue-liveness-escalation.test.ts
ui/src/components/IssueAssignedBacklogNotice.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueRow.test.tsx` — 50 passed, 23 skipped.
- Skipped tests were embedded Postgres suites on this host with the repo
skip message: `Postgres init script exited with code null. Please check
the logs for extra info. The data directory might already exist.`
- Pairwise merge check against the issue-controls PR branch completed
without conflicts via `git merge --no-commit --no-ff` in a temporary
worktree.
- Screenshots for assigned-backlog UI states:
[light](docs/pr-screenshots/pr-5428/assigned-backlog-light.png),
[dark](docs/pr-screenshots/pr-5428/assigned-backlog-dark.png).
- Follow-up checks: `pnpm --filter /ui typecheck`; `pnpm --filter
/mcp-server build`; `pnpm --filter /mcp-server test`; `pnpm exec vitest
run packages/shared/src/validators/issue.test.ts`; focused UI component
tests.
- Remote PR checks on head `6300b3c`: policy, verify, serialized server
shards 1/4-4/4, Canary Dry Run, e2e, Greptile Review, and Snyk all
passed.

## Risks

- Medium: changes status defaulting for assigned issue creation when the
caller omits status. Explicit `backlog` remains supported, and
server/shared tests cover both paths.
- Medium: liveness classification changes can affect blocker attention
labels; focused service and UI tests cover the new assigned-backlog
state.

DottaandPaperclip d0e9cc76f2 Show workspace changes and stale notices in issue threads (#5356)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - The issue thread is the operator's durable audit trail for what
changed and why
> - Workspace changes and stale disposition notices need to be visible
in that same timeline without noisy or misleading rendering
> - The local branch already contained backend activity details,
timeline conversion, and UI rendering work for those events
> - This pull request isolates the issue-thread activity work into a
standalone branch against `origin/master`
> - The benefit is a focused audit-trail PR that can merge independently
of the sidebar/operator UI polish branch

## What Changed

- Adds readable workspace-change activity details to issue update
activity events.
- Surfaces workspace-change events in issue chat/timeline rendering.
- Makes the existing issue comment migration idempotent.
- Folds and renders stale disposition notices inline so they match
activity-log styling and spacing.
- Adds focused route, timeline, and issue-thread system notice coverage.

## Verification

- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issue-activity-events-routes.test.ts
ui/src/lib/issue-timeline-events.test.ts
ui/src/components/IssueChatThreadSystemNotice.test.tsx` — 3 files
passed, 22 tests passed.
- Confirmed the PR changes 9 files and does not include `pnpm-lock.yaml`
or `.github/workflows/*`.
- `pnpm exec vitest run

passed, 4 tests passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run

packages/shared/src/validators/issue.test.ts` — 5 files passed, 54 tests
passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck && pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/server typecheck && pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui
typecheck`.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` after adding the Storybook
screenshot fixture.
- Captured Storybook screenshots for the new UI rendering paths:
- Collapsed stale notice + workspace-change row:
`docs/pr-screenshots/pr-5356/issue-thread-notices-collapsed.png`
- Expanded stale notice details:
`docs/pr-screenshots/pr-5356/issue-thread-notices-expanded.png`


### Screenshots

Expanded stale notice details:

details](docs/pr-screenshots/pr-5356/issue-thread-notices-expanded.png)

## Risks

- Moderate risk: this touches issue activity serialization and
issue-thread rendering, both of which are central operator surfaces.
- Migration risk is low: the only migration change makes an existing
migration idempotent.
- No new migrations are introduced, so there is no cross-PR migration
ordering requirement.

DottaandPaperclip a1b30c9f35 Add planning mode for issue work (#5353)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is a control plane for autonomous AI companies.
> - Issues are the core unit of work, and issue comments are how board
users and agents coordinate execution.
> - Some issue conversations need to produce plans and approvals instead
of immediate implementation work.
> - The existing issue contract did not distinguish standard execution
comments from planning-oriented issue work.
> - This pull request adds an issue work-mode contract and board UI
affordances for standard vs planning mode.
> - The benefit is that planning-mode issues can be created, displayed,
discussed, and carried through agent heartbeat context without losing
the normal issue workflow.

## What Changed

- Added `standard` / `planning` issue work-mode contracts across DB,
shared validators/types, server issue flows, plugin protocol, and
adapter heartbeat payloads.
- Added an idempotent `0081_optimal_dormammu` migration for
`issues.work_mode`, ordered after current `public-gh/master` migrations.
- Updated heartbeat/context summaries and issue-thread interaction
behavior so planning work mode is preserved when creating suggested
follow-up issues.
- Added UI support for planning-mode issue creation, issue rows, detail
composer styling, and composer work-mode toggles.
- Added focused server/shared/UI tests plus a Playwright visual
verification spec for planning-mode surfaces.
- Rebased the branch onto current `public-gh/master` and added durable
planning-mode screenshots under `doc/assets/pap-3368/`.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db run check:migrations`
- `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/shared
packages/shared/src/validators/issue.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/server
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-context-summary.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interactions-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issues-goal-context-routes.test.ts --pool=forks
--poolOptions.forks.isolate=true`
- `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/ui
ui/src/components/IssueChatThread.test.tsx
ui/src/components/NewIssueDialog.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueRow.test.tsx ui/src/pages/IssueDetail.test.tsx`
- `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/adapter-utils
packages/adapter-utils/src/server-utils.test.ts`
- `PAPERCLIP_E2E_SKIP_LLM=true npx playwright test --config
tests/e2e/playwright.config.ts
tests/e2e/planning-mode-visual-verification.spec.ts`

## Risks

- Medium migration risk: this adds a non-null issue column. The
migration uses `ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS` so installations that applied
an older branch-local migration number can still apply the final
numbered migration safely.
- Medium contract risk: issue payloads, plugin payloads, and adapter
heartbeat payloads now include work mode; compatibility is handled by
defaulting missing values to `standard`.
- UI risk is moderate because composer controls changed; focused
component tests and visual e2e coverage exercise standard vs planning
display and toggle behavior.

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

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, GPT-5 coding agent in a local Paperclip worktree, with
shell/tool use. Exact context-window size is not exposed in this
runtime.
