DottaandPaperclip 33ca62f776 Keep external-agent feature reads on their admission transaction (#19750)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages work for AI agents.
> - External native agents must pass current feature and authority
checks.
> - The broker checks feature settings inside its admission transaction.
> - The old feature reader uses the root database pool.
> - Two active transactions can leave no connection for that read.
> - This change uses the admitted transaction for the same policy read.
> - It keeps the existing company, principal and controller checks.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #19340. That merged change fixes retained native Retry ownership.
This change leaves that recovery contract intact. Related: #18744 and
#17833 fix caller-owned transaction reads in other domains. Root
searched live GitHub for open externalBotEnabled changes and found no
duplicate.

**What happened?**

An external-agent admission can wait for another pool connection while
it holds a row lock. A second transaction can occupy the remaining
connection and wait for that lock. The feature read must use the
transaction that already owns admission.

**Expected behavior**

Dot, Grok and Muse read current feature settings on the admitted
transaction. Disabled providers remain disabled. Current authority
checks remain in force.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Use a real PostgreSQL pool with two connections.
2. Lock the settings row in the admission transaction.
3. Occupy the second connection with a transaction that waits for that
row.
4. Read the existing provider feature policy through the admitted owner.
5. Require the read to finish before the competing lock is acquired.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The fix was tested at `d8dece250b75cffee67d3b7f4f0e669826282164`, based
on master `839d41aabbc6d042250548aedcaa5c50d369dca3`. It now includes
master `131b566ca4fa866c4348739c75cfe48c805b3398` through normal merge
`c2031b0fb3e5d1b34ebff1d5af8cc050d129bd9a`. All seven fix files retain
their tested blobs and modes.

## What Changed

- Pass the admitted select owner through the broker identity contract.
- Use that owner for Dot, Grok and Muse feature settings.
- Add a read-only settings projection that reuses the existing managed
and staging view. It does not create the settings row.
- Add six real PostgreSQL controls for enabled and disabled providers.
- Add three broker-path PostgreSQL regressions for exact transaction
forwarding through Dot, Grok and Muse.
- Keep all newer master broker changes and existing authority checks.

## Verification

Local controlled regression passed at tested revision
`d8dece250b75cffee67d3b7f4f0e669826282164`:

- Baseline: restore only the five original master production leaves.
Keep the same read-only settings projection and regression file. One
enabled-Dot case failed with the intended `57014`; it still read the
correct `true` policy. Five cases were unselected.
- The trace held the admission lock at 2.441 ms. The second connection
waited for that lock at 9.494 ms. The root-pool feature read finished at
2015.585 ms, after the competing statement timed out at 2014.982 ms.
- Candidate: all six enabled/disabled Dot, Grok and Muse controls
passed, with zero skips, in 14.528 s. Each read returned the configured
policy before the competing lock was acquired. Every competing
transaction committed without an error.
- Fresh normal candidate production declarations passed in 17.080 s. The
complete 615-root owning test program passed in 4.756 s. Own dependency
setup and TypeScript export builds had passed before these controls.
- Known worker groups and sockets closed. The single post-owner audit
found no other sessions in the test database. No forensic database was
changed.

An earlier selector attempt skipped all six cases and opened no test
database connection. It is not a regression pass or failure. Source
inspection proved that Vitest 5 filters names with ` > ` separators,
while its JSON reporter joins names with spaces. The selected control
then used the unique title-only pattern; its separate baseline failure
is preserved above.

The later normal master merge preserves all seven tested files. The 46
incoming paths change Native/workspace recovery, types and presentation.
They do not change the direct feature/settings read graph. The
direct-policy evidence therefore carries from its tested revision. It
was **not rerun at the merged revision**. Fresh merged-head checks at
`c2031b0fb3e5d1b34ebff1d5af8cc050d129bd9a` passed: the content-aware
Shared/SDK producer (1.325 s), normal Runner core and surfaces
TypeScript programs (0.936 s and 0.693 s), and the full normal App graph
(28.933 s). The App check included all production layers and all four
test programs: 616 normal test roots and 397/409/412 tree roots. Known
build owners and sockets closed. Database/Eval and provider asset
outputs remained unchanged. No install, Cargo, binary build, provider
execution or PG test repeated. Fresh final-head remote CI and review
remain **pending**.

The test entry is
`server/src/modules/external-agents/feature-reader-owner.postgres.test.ts`.
It requires a dedicated external
`PAPERCLIP_FEATURE_OWNER_TEST_DATABASE_URL` ending in `_test` and an
owned `PAPERCLIP_FEATURE_OWNER_TRACE` path. Its normal migration hook,
two-connection pool, case deadlines and assertions remain unchanged. No
provider or Runner binary is needed for these controls.

The review also identified a wiring coverage gap: the six contention
controls call the readers directly. A new whole-three file now traverses
the actual Dot/Grok/Muse broker factories, normal pending-pairing
producers, dispatch and real execution-admission transaction.
Pass-through observations compare the exact admission transaction with
the owner supplied to the normal readonly settings projection. Each
provider is disabled through normal settings and must return real 403,
read actual false policy, leave the queued run without Native authority,
and create no assignment. No grant, ready binding, policy result or
successful authorization is mocked.

With only the original five master production leaves restored, all three
new cases failed at the exact missing-owner assertion (`readOwners`
expected length 1, actual 0) after passing the real 403 and
admission-scope checks. The full baseline had0 pass / 3 fail / 0 skip in
12.691 s. With the exact candidate leaves restored, the unchanged
whole-three file passed 3/3 with zero skips in 10.101 s. Both variants
used actual Node 24 / Vitest 5 forks and a real PG pool of two; all
known owners/groups/sockets closed. The candidate's private temporary
directory was removed; the failed baseline database/home remain
retained. Root independently read all three raw baseline failures,
rehashed source and outputs, verified known owner/group closure, then
observed no remaining test sessions. The successful database was
normally removed; the original failing database and home remain
retained.

The new test entry is
`server/src/modules/external-agents/broker-feature-owner.postgres.test.ts`,
using dedicated `PAPERCLIP_BROKER_FEATURE_OWNER_TEST_DATABASE_URL`. The
complete normal 617-root owning test program passed in 4.883 s after a
normal exported config refresh; prior production declarations and
unrelated configs remained byte-identical. No compiler or
dependency/Rust work repeated for the PG variants. These results were
obtained with the seven production/source files at c203 plus the new
test; they are not claimed as a new published-head remote CI result. The
review repair is committed at
`d043860eb93a26c4416f184697a212f027d538e2`; it adds only this 117-line
test file to `c2031b0f`. Tracked production bytes are unchanged. Exact
published head `d043860eb93a26c4416f184697a212f027d538e2` now passes 56
checks with four expected skips. Greptile reviewed this exact head at
5/5 and confirms that the broker-test gap is addressed. The complete
review thread is resolved. Ponytail stopped without a verdict; one
normal retry was requested and no active turn or new finding was
observed. No earlier-head result is used as a new-head pass.

The controls prove feature policy and transaction ownership. They do not
prove deployed suspension, hosted Dot/Muse eligibility or full Native
task execution. The separate private useful-case pass does not supply
missing current-master or accounting evidence.

## Risks

The broker identity contract changes for all three providers. A missed
adapter could use the wrong owner. Current semantic, real-policy and
exact broker-owner identity tests cover that error.

The read-only projection reuses the normal settings view. It preserves
managed and staging rules. An absent row is projected without a write;
the existing initializing getter stays unchanged.

No schema, public API, queue, timer, rate limit or provider deadline
changes. No historical Retry or physical-stop proof is changed.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` assisted with source changes and tool use. An
OpenAI GPT-6 family coordinator reviewed the work; its exact runtime ID
was not exposed. Context-window sizes were unavailable.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 e620ce3678 fix(heartbeat): deliver each accepted follow-up exactly once through restarts and admission holds (#19741)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A user can comment, click Retry, or rely on automatic recovery while
an agent works on a task
> - Restart-chaos waves showed accepted follow-ups being dropped, or
delivered twice, around restarts and temporary company admission holds
(accounting still settling after a restart)
> - A dropped comment means the user's request is never acted on. A
duplicate reopens work that is already done
> - This pull request makes accepted work wait through a temporary hold
and resume when it clears. It also stops a comment from being promoted
again after a completed run already received it
> - The benefit is that each accepted follow-up is delivered exactly
once, eventually, unless the task is cancelled or a reached hard stop
applies

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19702 (never-started tasks during a temporary hold), #19700
(bounded accounting hold), #14910 (stale reopen from a deferred wake; no
file overlap).

**What happened?**
Restart-chaos waves found these shapes:
1. **Comment wake cancelled.** A comment was saved behind a run and
promoted when the run ended. A temporary company hold refused the
unstarted queued run, and claim cancelled it terminally. The recovery
wake that followed was cancelled the same way, and the task rested
`blocked` without the comment.
2. **Dead Retry.** A Retry click during the hold stayed
`deferred_issue_execution` after the hold cleared. Nothing woke it, and
the issue held no execution lock.
3. **Refused assignment.** A new task's first wake was refused during
the hold. Nothing woke stranded-work recovery when the hold cleared, so
the task stayed `todo` with no run.
4. **Silent comment after recovery.** A comment was saved behind a run
that restart recovery finalized. A company-scoped hint waited out the 30
s deferred-receipt rescan, so the task looked done with the message
unread.
5. **Comment delivered twice.** A run whose provider process was lost
had a saved comment. Its retry started after the comment, received it in
its prompt (task history), did the work, and finished the task. The
saved wake was then promoted anyway, which reopened the done task.

**Expected behavior**
An accepted follow-up (comment, Retry, recovery) is delivered exactly
once, eventually, unless the task is cancelled. A temporary refusal
never ends in a terminal cancel, skip, or block. Reaching a hard stop
remains the board's decision.

## What Changed

- `heartbeat/queue.ts`: on a budget block at claim, an unstarted queued
run stays queued when the block is temporary. A reached hard stop or
blocked unpriced usage still cancels it.
- `recovery/service.ts`: stranded-work recovery waits out a temporary
hold for any task. It does not escalate to `blocked`. This extends
#19702 beyond never-started tasks.
- `budget-block-ownership.ts`: a shared `isBoardOwnedBudgetBlock`, moved
out of the recovery service. `budgets.ts` is unchanged.
- `run-cost-accounting.ts`: settling a run's accounting wakes queued-run
dispatch, the deferred-receipt worker, and stranded-work recovery. Held
work waits passively; this is what resumes it.
- `deferred-execution-notifications.ts`: new
`notifyDeferredWakesForIssue`. `native-run-projection.ts` (a run
reaching a terminal status) and `environments.ts` (lease release) now
hint each saved wake of the issue by id, so delivery does not wait out
the company rescan interval.
- `wake-queue/adapters/postgres.ts`: release treats a saved comment as
delivered only when a succeeded run of the wake's agent on that issue
started after the comment's latest revision, and either received the
comment as its own wake input (`wakeCommentIds`) or was a retry of the
interrupted turn whose task history included it. In that case it cancels
the saved wake with "Queued messages were already delivered to a
completed run" and leaves the task as it is. Task history alone never
consumes a message saved for its own turn. One query checks the whole
batch.
- `run-cost-accounting.ts`: settling late receipt debt also sends the
hold-release notifications.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: documents the rule.

## Verification

Red on `master` and green with this change, on embedded Postgres:
- `server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-held-comment-wake.test.ts`:
- A promoted comment refused by the hold stays pending, with no
cancelled run and no `blocked` task. It is delivered once after the hold
clears through real `accountRunCost`.
- A Retry clicked during the hold starts exactly once after accounting
settles, which wakes its owner.
- A new task whose assignment was refused during the hold starts once
accounting settles, which wakes stranded-work recovery.
- A comment that a later succeeded retry already received as history, or
that a later run received as wake input, is consumed without reopening
the task.
- Guard tests (green on both):
- A comment is still delivered in each of these cases: the later run
never received it, it was edited after that run started, it was posted
while the run was already running, or a non-retry run only saw it as
history.
  - A task whose continuation was refused waits out the hold.
  - A reached hard stop is still refused.
- `server/src/__tests__/native-run-projection-work.test.ts`: projecting
a recovered run terminal hints the saved comment's own wake (red on
`master`).
- Related suites pass locally (14 files, 482 tests): wake-queue, queued
comments routes, refused assignment wake, native run projection.
- Live replays (local, unmasked, kept instances):
- `--replay w-20261107T031005-s7501/t04` (Claude C1, K1): PASS. The
comment's run was created at 03:56:24 during the hold, stayed queued,
started at 04:06:24 when the hold cleared, and succeeded. It is the only
run carrying the comment.
- `--replay w-20261107T002911-s7401/t01` (before the per-wake hint): it
reproduced shape 4. Run 592d772f was killed 250 ms after
`run.result.accepted`, released and finalized at restart, and the task
rested `done` with the comment still saved. Calling the existing sweep
on the kept database promoted it, which confirmed that the missing piece
was the trigger.

## Risks

- A queued run can now sit queued for the length of a temporary hold,
which #19700 bounds. It does not hold the issue's execution lock, so
later comments still coalesce into it.
- The delivered-comment rule depends on the run's recorded prompt
context. A succeeded run that received the comment in its history counts
as delivery, even if the agent did not act on it. This matches
exactly-once delivery semantics.
- Settling accounting now emits three extra notifications per run. They
are coalesced per company.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, run as an agent in
Claude Code with tool use (shell, file editing, local test execution,

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 8a34c1b62c fix(budgets): bound the accounting hold so one missing receipt cannot wedge a company (#19700)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Pending run accounting holds new company work until it settles
(#19497, #19606, #19673)
> - A run settles only with closure evidence: a verified local stop, or
a terminated remote sandbox. Without that evidence it held the whole
company forever. In restart-chaos storm 4, a single run held 35 tasks
for hours
> - Two more shapes kept the hold alive. A run whose result had already
been accepted never counted as closed. A recovery that already owned its
held reservation was refused by other tasks' recovering accounting, so
concurrent recoveries waited on each other
> - This pull request bounds the hold, closes accepted-result runs on a
verified stop, and lets an owned recovery finish
> - The benefit is that no single missing receipt can wedge a company,
while genuinely unknown spend still surfaces under the blocking policy

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Follow-up to #19497, #19606 and #19673.

**What happened?**
- Storm 4: run `f879895f` timed out in `session.open`. Its local stop
was never verified (its process identity is still recorded), recovery
ended in `terminal_failure`, and its receipt never became ready. From
then on, every new-work wake got 409 "New work must wait while a native
run recovers its unfinished accounting". That was 93 refusals, 35
blocked tasks, and no Retry.
- Storm 4: run `6d3c76bf` was resuming as the recovery owner with its
own held reservation. `reserveRunBudget` refused it because other tasks'
runs were recovering.
- Wave s7401: run `0a3a849d` failed after its result was accepted, with
a verified local stop. It had 10 receipts across 2 sources, all
incomplete with 0 tokens. It stayed "completed runs await accounting"
because closure only covered coordinators in terminal failure with no
result.

**What did you expect?**
A run without closure evidence holds new work only for a bounded time,
then settles visibly. An accepted-result run with a verified stop closes
like a terminal failure. A recovery that already owns admitted work can
finish.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Restart the control plane during several native turns so that one
run's local stop is never verified.
2. Observe the run stay "recovering" and every new wake refused
indefinitely.

## What Changed

- `run-cost-accounting.ts`:
- A coordinator counts as settled when it ended in terminal failure
without a result, or when it has an accepted result. The verified-stop
and remote-termination closures use that rule, which covers the s7401
shape.
- A native run whose provider never started settles at once, like a
pre-provider failure, with no charge and its reservation released. Its
recovery has settled, no usage receipt was ever journaled (a provider
turn journals one as soon as it starts), and its local process never
launched or was verified stopped (wave s7403, run 3c1d7b70,
`session.open` timeout).
- New bound `ACCOUNTING_CLOSURE_TIMEOUT_MS`: the remote runner reconnect
grace (7 minutes) plus 3 minutes. A terminal native run with a settled
coordinator and no closure evidence settles at the bound:
- its known usage is recorded as unpriced (or estimated from the rate
card), with provenance evidence "closure evidence never arrived…";
    - it is marked `accountingClosureTimedOut`;
- a `cost.accounting_closure_timed_out` activity entry names the run.
- The reconciler selects these runs, and `readCostAccountingWork`
schedules a wake at the bound.
- `budget-exposure.ts`: a timed-out closure's final charge is exempt
from none of the unpriced-block exemptions. Under the `block` policy it
raises the normal budget notice ("recorded usage has no reliable price")
instead of a silent hold.
- `budgets.ts`, `budget-reservations.ts`,
`run-dispatch/adapters/postgres.ts`: when a validated recovery owner
continues admitted work, admission and both dispatch rechecks apply only
hard stops and pauses. Pending and recovering accounting holds still
gate new work.
- `doc/SPEC-implementation.md`: documents the bound, the accepted-result
closure and the provenance.

## Verification

- `closed-native-receipt-accounting.test.ts` (embedded Postgres). All of
these fail on master and pass here:
- s7401 shape (accepted result, verified stop, all receipts incomplete
with 0 tokens): settles and clears admission.
- A run without closure evidence: held before the bound with a scheduled
wake, then settled with the "closure evidence never arrived" provenance,
the `accountingClosureTimedOut` flag and an activity entry. Admission
clears under `allow`.
- Storm 4 `f879895f` shape (terminal failure, recorded process identity,
no stop event): held, then released after the bound.
  - The blocking policy still blocks on a timed-out closure.
- s7403 shape (no receipts, model unknown): a run whose process never
launched, or was verified stopped, settles at once with no charge and
its reservation released. With an unverified process it waits for the
bound.
- Storm 4 `6d3c76bf` shape: a recovery owner with its held reservation
reserves past another task's recovering accounting, while new work for
another task still waits.
- Existing suites pass locally: budget-enforcement-scoping,
budget-enforcement-worker, native-stop-accounting, cost-data-quality,
heartbeat-cost-accounting, run-cost-accounting, budgets-service. Server
typecheck passes.
- The other storm 4 terminal-failure runs (`2e477ae9`, `e4d2e14d`,
`6d3c76bf`, `7d21a44c`, `4bc49df0`, `1d85fbd9`) were already settled by
#19673 in that database (`cost_accounting_pending=false`) and were not
holding admission. `f879895f` alone held it.

## Risks

- After the bound, a run whose provider might still be running settles
as unpriced. Under the `block` policy that raises a hard-stop budget
notice, by design. Under `allow`, work continues and a late receipt
still reconciles.
- A recovery owner skips accounting holds, so concurrent recoveries can
spend while other tasks' accounting is unknown. Hard stops still apply,
consistent with best-effort budget enforcement.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, via Claude Code with
tool use (shell, file editing, embedded Postgres tests).

51a65af9b8 fix(recovery): continue preserved preparation after process loss (#19464)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their execution state.
> - A server restart can stop workspace preparation before provider
execution.
> - Workspace recovery must preserve files before the task can continue.
> - Recovery handled interrupted preparations but skipped failed
process-loss records with the same no-provider certificate.
> - A withheld first retry could also hide the remaining retry budget.
> - This change resumes certified preparations through normal admission
after file recovery.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
A process-loss attempt remained failed after workspace recovery
completed. Its first retry had been cancelled before dispatch by the
workspace hold. The task had no running attempt or automatic
continuation.

**Expected behavior**
Continue once after the server proves that provider work did not start,
file preservation completed, and the exact leases stopped. Retain the
existing failure budget and all task admission gates.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Stop a Runner preparation before native runtime selection. Record the
restart recovery bootstrap certificate.
2. Retain the workspace and withhold the first automatic retry before
dispatch.
3. Complete file preservation and restart the recovery worker.
4. Observe that the old code schedules no successor. The regression test
reproduces this with PostgreSQL and real filesystem operations.

**Paperclip version or commit**
Reproduced against master at `2f35eb1080`. Related prior work: #19422
continues saved user input after verified copy-back. This change handles
automatic continuation of certified process-loss preparation.

## What Changed

- Accept failed process-loss preparation only with the durable
no-provider bootstrap certificate and existing execution, lease and file
checks.
- Discover and settle the recovered source through the existing
preparation recovery path.
- Continue from a verified withheld retry without rewriting its history
or resetting its failure count. Adopt it only as the sole retry child;
multiple-child history reuses the newest existing child
deterministically.
- Exercise automatic dispatch, preserved-file readback, one provider
turn, accepted result and task completion in the local native-session
fixture.
- Keep a durable continuation receipt after file-hold settlement until a
successor is recorded. Known gates wait for existing eligibility events.
Unresolved delivery keeps its shared recovery deadline.
- Document the recovery and retry-budget rules.

## Verification

- Red: both new PostgreSQL/filesystem regressions failed with zero
scheduled successors where one was required.
- Green: 54 focused recovery, automatic-dispatch, interruption,
multiple-child history and admission safety cases pass on `13c27c2c2f`.
The full PostgreSQL admission adapter suite passes all 83 tests; server
source declaration typecheck also passes. Local environment: Darwin
arm64, Node 26.4.0, PostgreSQL 18.1, Vitest 5.0.3.
- Additional red/green: interruption after committed settlement,
pause/resume, failed enqueue after cursor advancement, and absence of an
earlier retry all failed before their repairs. Restart before enqueue,
restart after the successor claim, and pause/resume now preserve one
continuation. A rolled-back eligibility change cannot start execution.
Deferred and delivered records have no retry deadline.
- Local acceptance uses the real heartbeat dispatcher, isolated files
and PostgreSQL, with a simulated native provider. It reads the preserved
file, writes continued work, accepts the structured result and completes
the task once.
- Negative cases retain no-certificate, provider-evidence, live-owner,
Stop, missing-stop-receipt, wrong-snapshot, human-block, pause,
reassignment, approval and exhaustion fences.
- CI fixture regression: 4 error-propagation/concurrent-resolution cases
pass after adding the new obligation read to their transaction stubs;
existing assertions remain unchanged.
- Existing idle-drain and notification contract regressions: 4 tests
pass after restricting recovery wakes to actual durable obligations.
Late approvals block scheduled, queued and final dispatch.
- Additional existing retry-scheduling suite: 62 cases pass locally. The
pre-provider quota case exceeds its existing 5-second terminal wait on
this loaded Darwin host, including when tested alone and with the
preceding retry implementation. It remains a local timing limitation;
the assertion and timeout were not changed. All Linux CI server shards
pass on the combined head, including this unchanged suite.
- Existing run-control, legacy-recovery and shared execution-control
lifecycle suites: 128 tests pass with the review repair. Required CI
supplies final-revision broad coverage.
- Real-Codex acceptance was not run: automatic approval review rejected
authenticated provider execution because it could incur cost/external
effects and required explicit approval. No provider call ran; the
controlled-provider acceptance covers the causal restart and durable
scheduling behavior.
- Hosted acceptance and recovery of existing tasks require rollout. They
have not been claimed from the local provider fixture.
- Final-head review: Greptile 5/5 on `13c27c2c2f`, no outstanding
findings. Another contributor added the multiple-child history safety
repair in `13c27c2c2f` while CI was running. The delta was inspected and
the 54 focused recovery cases rerun successfully. Required CI passes on
that exact combined head:
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42241794918. All
55 successful checks include aggregate `ci / verify`, typecheck, build,
canary, all server and E2E shards, and Runner package/Rust/static
checks. The separate Paperclip Review service check remains queued
waiting for its assigned agent; no validated assessment has been
returned.

## Risks

A malformed preparation certificate or a false no-execution receipt
could permit duplicate work. The existing checks still reject provider
execution records, native coordinators, live controllers, unsettled
leases and unverified files. The pending continuation must survive a
restart without polling known admission blockers. A withheld retry
retains its original row and consumes its remaining failure budget.
Normal admission checks current ownership, approvals, pause and budgets.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 family via Codex. The exact model ID and context window are
unavailable in session metadata. Used reasoning, code editing and tool
execution.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 7e3caa7bac fix(tree-control): resume work a pause gate refused after release (#19421)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The board can pause an issue tree. A pause stops work. Resume or
release must continue that work once.
> - PR #19394 made release re-dispatch a run that a pause Stop
cancelled.
> - That rule covers only a run that an operator Stop ended and that the
hold snapshot named.
> - A scheduled retry that comes due during a pause is not stopped. The
dispatch gate cancels it with `issue_paused`. The release did not see it
as owed work, so the task stalled with no run.
> - This pull request makes every gate that refuses work for a pause
record the covering hold. Release then re-dispatches that work exactly
once.
> - The benefit is that a paused task with a parked retry or a queued
run continues after release, with no manual wake.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19394

**What happened?**
A child task had a `workspace_busy` scheduled retry. The board paused
the parent tree. The retry came due during the pause. The
scheduled-retry gate cancelled it with `issue_paused` ("Scheduled retry
suppressed because the issue is held by an active subtree pause hold").
The board released the hold. Four minutes later the child was still
`in_progress` with no run, no execution blocker, and no new activity.

**Expected behavior**
Release (or `mode: "resume"`) re-dispatches the refused work exactly
once. No reconciliation and no user message are necessary.
Stranded-issue recovery does not add a second run.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Give an assigned child task a parked `workspace_busy` scheduled
retry.
2. Pause the parent tree.
3. Let the retry come due while the pause is active. The gate cancels it
with `issue_paused`.
4. Release the pause. No run starts for the child.

**Paperclip version or commit**
master at 4d49a31286 (includes #19394).

**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Not adapter-specific (core bug).

## What Changed

- `issue-tree-control.ts`: add `ISSUE_PAUSED_ERROR_CODE` and
`pauseSuppressionResult()`. A gate records `treeHoldSuppression: {
holdId, rootIssueId }` on a run that it refused for a pause.
- `findOwedPauseResume` now treats the latest run as owed when it is an
`issue_paused` cancellation under a pause hold. It uses the recorded
hold. For an unmarked run (a scheduled retry cancelled before this
change), it uses a snapshot pause that was active at cancellation. The
operator Stop rule does not change.
- Scheduled-retry gate (`run-dispatch/adapters/postgres.ts`,
`cancelSuppressedRetryInTx`): locks the pause row `FOR SHARE` and
records the covering hold. A concurrent release either sees the refusal,
or the retry sees no pause and runs normally.
- Queued-run claim gate (`heartbeat/queue.ts`): cancels with
`issue_paused` and the hold marker, after the agent start lock is
released. Before, the cancel re-entered that lock from inside it, and
the agent's queue stalled until the 30-second stale-lock timeout. After
the refusal is saved, the gate re-checks the hold and resumes the task
itself if release already finished (`resumeIfPauseAlreadyReleased`).
- Release (`issue-tree-resume.ts`, route): revisits the snapshot members
and every task with a run refused for that hold, also when `wakeAgents`
is set. This covers tasks created under the tree after the snapshot and
tasks moved out before release.
- `packages/db`: partial index
`heartbeat_runs_tree_hold_suppression_idx` (migration 0436, `CREATE
INDEX CONCURRENTLY`, registered as a top-level migration) for that
lookup.
- Docs: `doc/execution-semantics.md` (gate-refused work, race handling,
non-assignee and pre-fix scope) and `doc/DATABASE.md` (index).

## Verification

- Red before the fix, green after: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server
exec vitest run src/__tests__/issue-tree-pause-resume-run.test.ts` (21
tests).
- "resumes a parked retry the pause suppressed exactly once after
release / resume / legacy": before, `expected [] to have a length of 1`
(no resumed run). After, one `issue_tree_resumed` run with
`interruptedRunId` = the suppressed retry, no execution blocker, and the
task finished. `reconcileStrandedAssignedIssues` added no run during the
hold or after release.
- "resumes a queued run the claim gate refused during the hold exactly
once": before, the test timed out at 15 s (start-lock re-entry). After,
the run is cancelled with `issue_paused` and the hold marker, and
release re-dispatches it once.
- "resumes a refused retry on a task moved out of the paused tree before
release" and "... on a task outside the snapshot when release also wakes
members": review findings, one resume each.
- "leaves a due retry parked when the pause is released while the gate
refuses it": the test waits until the gate blocks on an uncommitted
release. The retry is not cancelled and runs once. Without the `FOR
SHARE` lock the gate does not wait and the test fails.
- "resumes work a gate refused after the release that should have
resumed it had finished": the late-refusal re-check resumes once, and a
repeated check does not dispatch again.
- "does not resume a paused-code cancellation that no pause hold
covered": negative case.
- Related suites pass locally: `src/__tests__/issue-tree*`,
`src/modules/run-dispatch`, `src/services/heartbeat/queue.test.ts`,
`heartbeat-dependency-scheduling`, `heartbeat-workspace-busy`, and
`packages/db` `client.test.ts`.
- I did not run a live staging check here. Staging APIs are not
reachable from this environment.

## Risks

- Migration 0436 adds a partial index on `heartbeat_runs`. It is built
concurrently and covers only cancelled runs with the marker, so it is
small.
- The scheduled-retry gate now takes a `FOR SHARE` row lock on the pause
hold before it cancels. Release updates that row, so the two serialize
briefly. Release does not lock issues or runs, so the lock order cannot
deadlock with the gate's issue-then-run locks.
- The queued-run claim gate now records `issue_paused` in place of the
generic `cancelled`. Stranded recovery already classifies `issue_paused`
as non-retryable. The pause resume owns that work, so recovery does not
add a second run.
- Scope limits (documented): a non-assignee run refused by a pause is
not replayed, the same as non-assignee wakes that admission drops during
a hold. Among pre-fix rows, only scheduled retries carry `issue_paused`,
so only those fall back to the snapshot. A pre-fix row whose hold is
already released does not self-recover; the staging task that showed
this bug needs one manual wake, or a new pause and release.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 90b8190c33 fix(native-runtime): detect half-open runner ingress and project Stop for live runs (#19407)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native runs in a managed sandbox talk to the server through a
provider-ingress WebSocket. The server opens this socket to the runner
(`paperclip-runnerd`) through the sandbox preview proxy.
> - A staging run ran a 20-minute foreground shell command that printed
nothing. After the first second, no run events arrived. The run stayed
"Working" for over 35 minutes. No watchdog acted, and the run projection
said `canStop: false`.
> - The server only detected a lost runner connection from a `close` or
`error` event. It never sent pings. A half-open route, for example a
proxy that drops the connection without a FIN, never emits `close`. The
run then waits forever and the 7-minute reconnect grace never starts.
> - A long silent tool call is legitimate. The fix must tell "quiet but
alive" apart from "nothing alive". A protocol ping does that: runnerd
answers every ping with a pong while its provider waits on the tool.
> - This pull request pings authenticated runner connections and
terminates the socket after 90 seconds of total silence. The existing
reconnect grace and transport-failure path then recover the run. It also
makes the execution projection report `canStop: true` for every queued
or running run.
> - The benefit is that a run with a dead runner connection now ends in
a bounded time instead of hanging. API readers also see the Stop that
the board already offers.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
A native-runner run (managed sandbox, OpenCode with an OpenRouter model)
ran a foreground shell command for about 20 minutes with no output. The
last run event came at about T+1s. The command finished on disk, but the
run never got another event and stayed `running` / "Working" for over 35
minutes. Its projection had `canStop: false` and `permittedActions:
["inspect_run"]`. A board cancel through the API worked.

**Expected behavior**
The server detects a dead runner connection and recovers or fails the
run in a bounded time. A runner that is alive but quiet stays attached.
The projection reports that a live run can be stopped.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a native run in a managed sandbox.
2. Make the agent run a long foreground command that prints nothing.
3. Let the preview route drop the WebSocket without a close frame.
4. Before this fix, the run stays "Working" forever.

## What Changed

- `server/src/realtime/runner-prp-outbound.ts`: after PRP
authentication, `WsJsonWireConnection.monitorLiveness` sends a WebSocket
ping every 20 s. Any inbound frame or pong counts as liveness. After 90
s with nothing inbound, it terminates the socket. That emits an ordinary
`close`, so the PRP authority and the reconnect loop use the existing
7-minute grace and then fail the transport. If the server's own event
loop stalls, the window restarts instead of blaming the runner. The 90 s
bound is longer than runnerd's own 60 s connection lease, which already
requires runnerd to read the socket.
- `server/src/services/execution-projection.ts`: `canStop` is now `true`
for every `queued` or `running` run. The old failed-native-retry rule is
unchanged.
- `server/src/services/execution-projection.ts`: a queued run now shows
"Waiting for previous run to stop" (cause `previous_run_settling`) when
a predecessor that admission checks (the task execution owner, the
retried run, or the agent's latest settled run on the task) still has
pending cleanup by `hasPendingRunCleanup`. Before, a turn queued after a
Stop showed only "Queued" with no reason while the stopped run's
controller still waited on the dead runner. That in-process wait
(`claimQueuedRun` settling-owner gate) also made Retry a no-op. The
liveness bound above makes that controller settle. Its existing cleanup
then calls `startNextQueuedRunForAgent`, which starts the queued turn.
- `server/src/services/run-cancellation.ts` and
`server/src/modules/run-dispatch/adapters/postgres.ts`: a user-stopped
native run whose runner was unreachable can later settle as `failed`
(`native_provider_terminal_failed`) when its transport fails closed. The
dispatch gate's message deferral required a `cancelled` source and
compared the message with `finishedAt`. The user's follow-up message was
therefore marked `skipped`, and the task asked for a second message. The
new `recordedUserStop` helper honors the recorded user Stop on such a
failed source, so the gate saves the message for the deferred-receipt
worker.
- `packages/shared/src/types/execution-projection.ts`: documents the
`canStop` meaning.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: documents the ingress liveness bound and
the new `canStop` meaning.

## Verification

- Red then green: `runner-prp-outbound.test.ts` "detects a half-open
authenticated ingress and fails the run within a bounded window". On the
old code it failed because no ping was sent and the socket was never
terminated. It now passes and the active-run `failure` rejects with
`runner_ingress_unavailable`.
- Safety: "keeps a quiet but live runner attached through a long silent
tool call" checks that a runner answering pings stays attached for 20
simulated minutes with no termination and no failure.
- Red then green: `execution-projection.test.ts` "offers Stop for every
live run, including a long-silent native turn". On the old code it
failed with `canStop: false`.
- Red then green: `execution-projection-recovery.test.ts` "names the
wait when a stopped predecessor still holds the task's runner" (real
Postgres). On the old code the successor projected a plain "Queued". It
also checks that the wait clears on lease release and ignores another
agent's run.
- Red then green: `workspace-recovery.test.ts` "continues a message sent
after Stop when the stopped run later failed closed". On the old code it
failed 3 of 3 runs with the receipt `skipped`. It now passes, and the
full file passes twice (392 tests). The test now pins the message after
the recorded Stop. Before, the fixture could write both in the same
millisecond, which made the sibling variants flaky.
- Passed: run-cancellation, explicit-native-continuation, run-dispatch
and run-control suites (622 tests).
- Passed: `npx vitest run src/realtime/
src/services/execution-projection*.test.ts
src/__tests__/heartbeat-run-privacy-routes.test.ts`, the
native-runner-execution-driver tests, and the plugin-runner-task tests.
- Passed: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`.
- I read runnerd (`runner-core/src/durable/transport.rs`) and confirmed
it answers `Ping` with `Pong` in its non-blocking read loop.
- Not run: a live managed-sandbox reproduction. Staging and Daytona were
not reachable from this environment. `plugin-runner-probe.test.ts` needs
a local cargo build of runnerd, and it did not start in this worktree.

## Risks

- A false termination is possible if a runner fails to answer pings for
90 s while it is still alive. runnerd already loses its own connection
lease after 60 s without reading, so this bound does not add a stricter
requirement. A terminated live runner reconnects within the existing
grace.
- If the preview proxy drops WebSocket control frames, ping alone does
not prove liveness. Inbound PRP frames (runnerd's lease renewals, about
every 30 s) still count, so a live runner stays attached.
- `canStop` now means "the board can Stop now" for live runs. The UI
already shows Stop for running and queued runs without reading this
hint, so the UI does not change.
- Out of scope: the inbound runner WebSocket server
(`runner-prp-ws.ts`), and a lost OpenCode SSE event while the runner is
alive. A stopped run whose controller hangs for a reason other than a
dead transport still holds the queued successor. The projection now
names that wait, but this PR does not force-release it, because the
controller has no termination evidence. A queued reason for the agent
concurrency cap is also not covered. The wait label calls the admission
predicate (`hasPendingRunCleanup`) for up to three predecessor runs per
queued run. This adds a few reads to projections of queued runs only.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 6ca7b151f7 feat: compact an agent's context from the task Properties panel (#19378)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A task's Properties panel shows the assignee agent's context window
(paperclipai/paperclip#19273)
> - The board can see that the context is nearly full, but it cannot act
on it
> - A full context makes the agent compact at an unplanned time, often
in the middle of work
> - This pull request adds "Compact now" to the Context hover card
> - The benefit is that the board can compact the agent's context
between runs, at a time it chooses

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs paperclipai/paperclip#19273

**Problem**
The Context row shows how full the agent's context window is. The board
cannot ask the agent to compact it.

**Proposed solution**
A "Compact now" button in the Context hover card. It runs the harness's
own compaction: Codex `thread/compact/start`, and Claude's `/compact`
command through ACP.

**Alternatives considered**
A separate PRP `session.compact` command. Both harnesses run compaction
as a turn, so a compaction turn keeps the existing durable turn binding,
interruption, and recovery. A separate command needs a second turn
lifecycle.

## What Changed

- UI: the Context hover card shows Compact now with three states:
available, Compacting…, and unavailable with a reason (agent mid-run,
harness unsupported, task closed). The Storybook story shows each state.
- Server: `POST /api/issues/:id/context/compact` (board only,
`decideIssueAccess` `issue:mutate`, activity log
`issue.context_compaction_requested`). It queues a short run marked by
`contextSnapshot.contextCompactionRequestId`. `GET
/issues/:id/context-usage` returns the `compaction` state.
- Server: a compaction run does no task work. The native status arbiter
preserves the task status. The lifecycle skips handoff, liveness
continuation, review-path disposition and the issue comment, as it does
for goal-control runs.
- Runner TS: `startTurn({ compact: true })`. The Codex harness session
sends `thread/compact/start`. The runnerd transport maps it to PRP
`turn.start` with `compact: true` (Codex) or `text: "/compact"`
(Claude/ACPX). The native runtime option `sessionCompaction` requires a
resumed session and settles with a synthesized yielded result.
- Runner Rust: `turn.start` accepts `compact: true` for Codex.
`CodexProvider::start_compaction_turn` sends `thread/compact/start` and
binds the turn from the `turn/started` that follows the empty response.
- Fix (from #19273): Codex emitted `context.compacted` on both the start
and the end of one compaction item. It now emits it once, and the count
is distinct by `compactionId`.
- Fix (from #19273): the conversation event view dropped
`context.compacted`, so a finished run never showed the divider. The
view now keeps compactions, plus context readings for runs that
compacted. A finished run's compactions show as thread dividers.
- Fix: the Codex harness stamps before/after sizes on the compaction
event. Codex reports the compacted size before the compaction item ends,
so the old neighbour-based guess showed the wrong size.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, `pnpm check:token-gates`, `node
scripts/storybook-catalog.mjs`: pass.
- New tests: `server/src/__tests__/context-compaction.test.ts`,
`status-arbiter.test.ts`, `issue-context-usage.test.ts` (duplicate
compaction counts once), `ui/.../context-usage-row.test.tsx`,
`native-session-runtime.test.ts` (context compaction), Codex driver and
runnerd transport tests, Rust
`codex_compaction_turn_binds_the_turn_reported_after_its_empty_response`.
Rust `codex_provider` suite: 115 passed.
- `pnpm test:run` locally: one failure in
`chat-channels.integration.test.ts`. It reads
`.claude/skills/slack/SKILL.md` from the main checkout, which is not
present in this worktree. It is not related to this change.
- Live, local worktree instance, Codex agent on the Paperclip runner:
clicked Compact now. The run succeeded. Context went from 35k to 9.4k
tokens, and later 9.4k to 9.2k. The task stayed In Review. The thread
shows "Context compacted · 9.4k → 9.2k tokens" and the meter dropped.
- Live Claude proof: pending. The local Claude agent needs an Anthropic
API key. claude-agent-acp handles `/compact` as an echo-less turn, and
the runner already maps its "Compacting completed." notice to
`context.compacted`.

## Risks

- A compaction run resumes the agent's session. If the session cannot
resume, the run fails with `native_context_compaction_unavailable` and
the task is unchanged.
- Compact now is not available while the agent runs on the task, because
compaction interrupts the active turn.
- The conversation view now returns context readings for runs that
compacted. Runs that never compacted return the same events as before.
- An old runner binary ignores `compact` and rejects the `turn.start`
because it has no text. It does not start an ordinary turn.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Workspace selection, Agent Chat availability, and navigation between
Chat, Tasks, and task details.

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting: UI, workspace preferences, instance settings, and the
database migration.

**Current behavior**

People must enable Coordinator and Agent Chat in Experimental settings.
Opening a task can repeat requests because prefetch warms the full
detail and comment queries, while the default view reads compact task
data and a recent comment window. Opening Chat waits for a detail
request even when the current person's conversation list contains it.

**Proposed behavior**

Coordinator is the standard workspace for everyone. Experimental
settings offer Classic workspace, off by default. Old Coordinator
experiment values do not select Classic. Agent Chat is available to
everyone, including instances with an old saved or managed off value.
Task link intent warms the queries used by the mounted view. Chat can
use the current person's company-scoped conversation list during
refresh.

**Reason and benefit**

People can use the standard workspace without setup. Repeat navigation
can show cached content while the server refreshes it.

**Breaking changes**

Existing Coordinator experiment and Agent Chat off values no longer
disable these surfaces. Classic requires an explicit new opt-in. The
workspace API keeps its existing response shape and audit checks. The
migration retains legacy values and adds a separate Classic preference.
Execution permissions, company access, and chat privacy checks still
apply.

**Additional context**

Roadmap check: this graduates existing surfaces and improves their
navigation. It does not add a new agent execution capability. Duplicate
searches found no open Coordinator workspace PR. Related server cache
work, Refs: #17828, addresses compact issue-list invalidation; this PR
addresses client navigation queries.

## What Changed

- Add a default-off Classic workspace preference. Derive the existing
workspace API response from that choice. Keep personal persistence,
account isolation, and audited writes in the workspace preference
service.
- Replace the Coordinator experiment control with Classic workspace. Use
Coordinator while preferences load. Update the existing settings
examples and navigation recipe.
- Retire the Agent Chat experiment control. Ignore old stored and
managed off values. Retain the compatibility key and the existing
execution and access checks.
- Reuse account- and company-scoped chat list data with its original
freshness timestamp.
- Share compact task and recent-comment query options between prefetch
and the task view. Keep full-history prefetch for Classic tasks and
expanded history.
- Add upgrade, replay, cache, account isolation, and browser switching
regressions. Update product, database, development, and roadmap
documentation.

## Verification

- Targeted preference, settings, migration, cache, and UI regression
tests passed during implementation. The cache tests hold refresh
requests pending and check that content still renders. They also check
account isolation and stale refresh behavior.
- A real browser test verified fresh Coordinator defaults, Classic
opt-in persistence, and return to Coordinator. It used an isolated
source checkout with fresh data on macOS.
- Token, migration numbering and safety, map, and Storybook catalog
checks pass after the rebase.
- Repository typecheck and build pass. Typecheck and token gates also
pass after review repairs. The broad local run passed all six chat
integration shards (1,931 tests). It then found the host-CLI-dependent
recovery fixture described below. Its remaining duplicate work was
stopped after the full current-head CI matrix passed; this is not a
claim that the broad local command completed green.
- Review repairs passed 419 UI/migration fixture tests, 19 Coordinator
navigation tests, and all 214 tests in the five affected server suites.
The 24 Chat/workspace browser tests pass, including standard Coordinator
switching and explicit Classic persistence.
- The broader browser repair run passed 85 tests. It retained two failed
assertions and skipped five later serial cases. The affected files then
passed all 11 tests after the fixes: reopen the desktop panel after
reload and open More for Audit and Connectors. This includes the five
serial cases that had not run.
- The broad local suite exposed a recovery fixture that executed the
host Codex CLI during a simulated remote probe. On a host with Codex
0.154.0, model fallback broke its fixed-model assertion. The fake
sandbox now reports Codex 0.160.0. All 20 selected recovery/provider
compatibility cases pass after the repair.
- A CLI company import/export suite timed out during server startup in
the second CI run. The port fallback is intentional in that fixture. No
root cause was established. That suite passes on the final commit in CI.
This records recovery, not a claimed product fix for the earlier
timeout.
- The first CI run exposed remaining assumptions about the retired flags
and Classic UI. The repair commit updates those fixtures and navigation
steps. It also restores the missing enabled Cases destination in
Coordinator. Earlier local recovery attempts used the wrong fixture
notification and advanced fake time during live execution; the corrected
tests use the subscribed recovery queue and wall time during execution.
- Greptile reviewed commit `98972b030d4505d838427a2fca6b196b8cad6d47` at
**5/5** with no new comments. The original finding is resolved.
- Current-head CI is green: **56 successful checks**, with three checks
skipped by workflow filters. This includes typecheck, build, the
complete Vitest matrix, all eight browser shards, Runner verification,
release checks, and security checks. [Final CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42132651414).
- Typecheck caught missing `pid` and `startedAt` fields in the simulated
command result. The fixture now returns the complete process contract,
and the server test-layer typecheck passes.
- Storybook catalog alignment was checked. Storybook play tests were not
run. Hosted latency and cold bundle loading were not measured.

## Risks

- The new default changes the workspace for people who previously left
the Coordinator experiment off. They can opt into Classic in
Experimental settings.
- The additive migration must run before the new server code. It is safe
to replay and preserves explicit Classic choices.
- Cached content can be stale during background refresh. Existing query
invalidation and source timestamps still control freshness.
- These changes reduce avoidable loading waits. They do not establish a
measured improvement in hosted request latency or initial bundle
download time.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and browser automation. The exact serving revision and
context-window size are not exposed in this session.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 a20dfbc695 fix(recovery): continue a message sent during Stop settlement after recovery (#19355)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A user can stop or interrupt a running native task and then send a
message to give new direction
> - When the stopped run left a workspace hold, the dispatch gate
withholds the follow-up run until recovery saves the work
> - The gate must save the user's message on its receipt so that the
deferred-receipt worker continues it after recovery
> - Two conditions made the gate skip the message instead of saving it,
so the task stayed in progress with "Saved work recovered. Send a
message to continue." although the user already sent one
> - This pull request saves the message in both conditions
> - The benefit is that the message the user already sent continues
once, automatically, after recovery

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
After a user stopped or interrupted a native task with an isolated
sandbox workspace and sent a message, the follow-up run was cancelled
with `execution_reconciliation_required`. Its error said "Saved work
recovered. Send a message to continue." Nothing re-woke the task. In the
interrupt case, a periodic sweep started a run about four minutes later.
In the case where the follow-up first waited for the stopped run's
workspace save (`workspace_busy`), each later retry parked on the same
resolved recovery action, and the task did not continue.

**Expected behavior**
When the recovery that the follow-up waited on resolves, the message
that the user already sent continues once, automatically. The product
does not ask for a second message.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run a native task in a managed sandbox with an isolated workspace.
2. Stop the run (or send a comment with interrupt), then send a message
while the stop and workspace save are still settling.
3. Wait for the workspace recovery to resolve.
4. See that the follow-up run is cancelled with
`execution_reconciliation_required` and that no run continues the
message.

**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` before this change.

**Root cause**
`deferUnstartedUserComment` (run dispatch) refused to save the withheld
message in two cases:
1. It compared the message time with the source run's `finishedAt`. A
native run finishes only after its provider stop and workspace save
settle, which takes seconds. A message written after the Stop request
but before that settlement was treated as input written before the Stop.
The receipt was marked `skipped`.
2. It required the run's own receipt to be user-owned. A workspace-busy
retry or an admission retry carries the user's message under a
system-owned receipt, so the message was dropped with the retry.

## What Changed

- Add `userStopBoundaryAt(run)` in `run-cancellation.ts`. For a run
cancelled by a user Stop or interrupt, it returns the recorded Stop
request time (`cancellation.recordedAt`) when that is earlier than
`finishedAt`. For all other runs it returns `finishedAt`.
- Use this boundary in the dispatch gate's message deferral, in native
explicit-continuation admission, and in the remote-Stop continuation
check, so the three places agree on "message written after the Stop".
- When the withheld run is a system-owned retry, walk a bounded chain
(max 8) of retries that did not reach the provider (`workspace_busy`
with `providerWorkStarted: false`, or a verified pre-dispatch
`execution_reconciliation_required`) to the originating user receipt.
Save the message on that receipt with the user's original wake context.
Mark the retry's system receipt `skipped`.
- Update the "input written before the Stop" test so that the Stop
request, and not only the settlement, comes after the message.

## Verification

- New regressions in `server/src/services/workspace-recovery.test.ts`
(`continues a message ... without a second message, after recovery
already resolved`): a direct follow-up and a workspace-busy retry. Each
runs recovery to completion first, then lets the gate withhold the
follow-up, then runs only the deferred-receipt worker. Each asserts that
exactly one successor run is queued with the user's message and the
user's authority, and that no provider work starts.
- Red before the fix: both tests fail because the receipt is `skipped`
instead of `deferred_issue_execution`. Green after the fix.
- `npx vitest run src/services/workspace-recovery.test.ts` (384 passed).
- `npx vitest run src/services/explicit-native-continuation.test.ts
src/modules/run-dispatch src/services/execution-continuation.test.ts
src/services/run-cancellation.test.ts` (581 passed).
- 19 more heartbeat, retry, queued-comment, and native recovery suites
(1272 passed). One failure, `heartbeat-process-recovery > redacts opaque
environment-bound credentials from Sentry diagnostics: result`, also
fails on unchanged `master` and is not related.

## Risks

- A message written after the Stop request but before the stopped run
settled now continues. The stopping run cannot consume new input after
its Stop request, and admission still removes comments that a run
already delivered (`undeliveredLegacyUserCommentIds`). All admission
gates (holds, stop proofs, approvals, budget) still apply.
- Only user Stops and interrupts move the boundary. Other cancellations
keep `finishedAt`.
- The retry walk is bounded, stays in one company, agent, and issue, and
accepts only retries without provider work. It revives a user receipt
only from `cancelled` or `skipped`, so a second retry cannot save the
same receipt twice.
- Not in scope: a run that fails during native preparation with no user
message (for example `runner_state_identity_mismatch:
prior_owner_terminal_state_indeterminate;
retirement_refused=unexpected_root_entry` on a system wake). After its
recovery resolves, the task still waits for a user message. That is a
separate root cause in the native session executor's prior-owner
retirement proof.

Nicky LeachandClaude Opus 5.5 f9d366acdf fix(runner): require a managed AI connection for plugin Runner-task environments (#19341)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A plugin can provide Runner execution through an environment driver
that declares `supportsTasks: true`. Agent computers use this path.
> - Core let an agent without a managed AI connection run on that path.
The run then used the account that was installed on the plugin's
execution host.
> - That is not a supported credential source. When the host Runner did
not match, the run failed three times, 30 seconds apart, and then
blocked the task with a generic error. The error did not name the fix.
> - The plugin cannot refuse these runs itself. `describe` has no
connection data, and Core replaces plugin error text before the user
sees it.
> - This pull request makes a managed AI connection a requirement for
every plugin Runner-task environment. Core refuses a run without one
before it acquires a lease or calls the plugin.
> - The benefit is one clear notice that tells the operator to choose an
AI connection, and no wasted retries or plugin work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19326. That pull request makes a Runner revision mismatch retry.
It noted that runs without a managed AI connection reach the Runner
check on a different path, which still blocks after 3 attempts. This
pull request removes that path for plugin Runner-task environments.

**Problem or motivation**
A `paperclip_runner` agent with no managed AI connection can run in a
plugin environment that provides Runner tasks. The run uses the account
installed on the execution host. If the host Runner does not match, the
native session retries 3 times and then blocks the task with
"Plugin-provided Runner execution operation unavailable". The operator
cannot tell what to fix.

**Proposed solution**
Refuse these runs in Core before any lease, plugin call, secret
resolution, or provider work. Use one stable reason,
`ai_connection_required`, for run admission, the setup probe, and agent
verification. Show a task notice that names the fix.

**Alternatives considered**
A refusal in the plugin. It cannot see the connection at `describe`,
which runs first. Its error text is also replaced twice before the user
sees it. A new structured plugin error code would still not cover
`describe`.

## What Changed

- Add `server/src/services/plugin-runner-ai-connection.ts`. It holds the
`ai_connection_required` code and message, the probe result, and the
manifest lookup for a Runner-task driver. The lookup moves here from
`agent-runner-selection.ts`, so run admission and runner selection use
the same rule.
- `heartbeat/execution-configuration.ts`: refuse a new
`paperclip_runner` run in a Runner-task environment when it has no
managed AI connection. This also applies when `homeMode:
"preconfigured"` drops the connection. The run fails as
`configuration_incomplete` with reason `ai_connection_required` and an
action URL to the agent's runtime settings. The check runs before
observability, secrets, the managed runtime, the workspace, and the
lease. A resumed native run keeps its admitted contract.
- `recovery/stranded-notice.ts`: add an "AI connection required" task
notice.
- `run-failure-report.ts`: treat this pre-dispatch refusal as an owner
action, not an unexpected failure.
- `adapters/registry.ts`: the unmanaged probe for a Runner-task target
now returns a failed `ai_connection_required` check. It calls no task
operation. Managed probes still go through `testManagedEnvironment`.
- `agent-harness-verification.ts` and
`agent-lifecycle/application/failure.ts`: classify the check as
`ai_connection_required` with a fixed message. Verification waits for
the configuration to change instead of retrying.
- Docs: `PLUGIN_RUNNER_EXECUTION.md` states the requirement.
`PLUGIN_ENVIRONMENT_TASKS.md` no longer mentions installed accounts.
`agent-config-ui.md` notes the requirement.
- Tests: the "plugin-owned account" heartbeat test described the
behavior that this change removes. It now checks the assembled heartbeat
refusal: no plugin call, no native boundary, no adapter, no workspace
files.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run` in `server/` for these files. All tests passed:
- `src/__tests__/heartbeat-execution-configuration.test.ts`. New cases:
refused without a connection, refused for a preconfigured home, managed
passes, resumed native input passes, non-task plugin driver passes. The
refused cases also check that observability, secrets, and the managed
runtime did not start.
- `src/__tests__/heartbeat-plugin-environment.test.ts`. One test,
"inherits the instance default environment across companies…", also
fails on unmodified `master` in my environment. This change does not
touch it, because its driver does not declare `supportsTasks`.
- `src/adapters/registry.test.ts`,
`src/__tests__/agent-harness-verification.test.ts`,
`src/modules/agent-lifecycle/__tests__/diagnostics.test.ts`,
`src/services/recovery/stranded-notice.test.ts`, and
`src/services/__tests__/run-failure-report.test.ts`.
- 17 more suites that use plugin Runner-task environments, with 705
tests: `plugin-runner-task.integration`,
`plugin-warm-tasks.integration`, `task-creation-recovery.integration`,
`native-startup-cleanup-recovery`,
`environment-task-authority.integration`,
`plugin-task-credential-writeback`, agent-lifecycle `lifecycle`,
`setup`, and `environment-plugins`, `workspace-preparation`,
`agent-runner-selection`, `agent-harness-verification-provider-api`,
`agent-harness-verification-remote`, `plugin-environment-driver-seam`,
`environment-task-runtime`, `agent-test-environment-routes`, and
`adapter-registry`.
- `pnpm typecheck` in `server/` reported no errors in the changed files.
Its only errors came from sandbox-provider packages that my local
install did not link.
- Not run: `plugin-runner-probe.test.ts`, because it needs a Cargo
build. This change does not modify `probePluginRunnerEnvironment`. Also
not run: the full `pnpm test:run` and `pnpm build`. CI runs them.

## Risks

- Behavior change: an agent in a plugin Runner-task environment with no
managed AI connection now stops before dispatch. Before, it ran with the
host's installed account. The agent's owner must choose an AI
connection. This includes agents with `homeMode: "preconfigured"` in
these environments.
- Runs that were already admitted and resume from saved native input are
not refused. They keep the earlier behavior until they finish.
- The check reads the plugin manifest on each new run admission for
plugin environments. This is the same lookup that runner selection
already does.
- This pull request and #19326 both edit `stranded-notice.ts` and
`failure.ts`. The changes are additive, but whichever merges second
needs a small rebase.

Nicky LeachandClaude Opus 5.5 a6ab6a301c fix(server): retry a run when its remote Runner is out of date (#19326)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - An agent can run on a remote Runner that an environment plugin
provides
> - A release can update the app before the remote Runner, so for a
short time the app sees an older Runner
> - In that window the plugin can refuse the task, but Core cannot tell
this refusal from other errors
> - Today the run fails as `setup_failed` with no retry, and the task
goes to board recovery. Before #19246, it was also reported as a project
authentication conflict
> - Agent verification also counts the refusal as a failed harness test,
and it parks the agent after three tries
> - This pull request gives the plugin a stable error code for a Runner
mismatch, and Core waits and retries when it gets that code
> - The benefit is that a release no longer blocks tasks or parks
agents, and a real authentication conflict keeps its own clear notice

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19246 (it stopped reporting every precheck error as a project
authentication conflict)
Refs #19249 (the same bounded bootstrap retry for a stopped plugin
worker)
Refs #19302 (shares `environment-task-error.ts`; its diagnostic envelope
is unchanged)
Refs #19172 (related open PR: it reports an undescribable plugin Runner
as a retryable check in the same precheck)
Refs #18667 (a real `ai_connection_incompatible` conflict, which now
gets its own notice)

**What happened?**
A run started while its remote Runner was older than the app. The
environment plugin refused the task because the installed Runner did not
match the revision it expects. Core recorded a generic setup failure,
scheduled no retry, and blocked the task. Before #19246, Core reported
this as a project authentication conflict. An agent in `verifying`
counted the same refusal as a failed harness test. After three tries it
stopped verification until a person chose Retry.

**Expected behavior**
Core treats a Runner mismatch as temporary. A run retries without
blocking its task. A `verifying` agent checks again until the Runner
matches. Only a real `ai_connection_incompatible` result blocks the
task, with a notice that names the conflict.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Use an agent on a plugin environment whose installed remote Runner
revision differs from the revision the plugin expects.
2. Wake the agent on a task, or put a new agent through verification.
3. The run fails with `setup_failed` and the task is blocked.
Verification parks after three tries.

**Paperclip version or commit**
master at 377e98f1a2.

**Deployment mode**
Authenticated deployment with a plugin environment that provides a
remote Runner.

## What Changed

- Plugin SDK: add `PluginEnvironmentTaskError` and
`ENVIRONMENT_TASK_ERROR_CODES` with one code,
`runner_revision_mismatch`. The worker RPC host sends it as structured
`environmentTask` error data with the schema
`paperclip/environment-task-error-code/v1`
(`environmentTaskErrorCodeData`, read with
`readEnvironmentTaskErrorCode`). This uses the same envelope method as
the other environment RPC errors. Core reads only the code, never the
message. The source refusal diagnostic from #19302 keeps its own schema
and API unchanged, and it takes precedence on a source `submit`.
- `executeEnvironmentTask` still replaces each worker error with a
generic error. After the #19302 diagnostic check, it now keeps only that
closed code.
- Run setup: a Runner mismatch before provider dispatch gets the error
code `runner_revision_mismatch`. Setup schedules a bounded retry with
its own reason, `runner_revision_wait`, and budget (10 attempts, 60 s
apart). The reason is in the same resource-wait lane as workspace and AI
connection waits, so a wait does not spend the failure retry budget. The
guards are the same as for `plugin_worker_unavailable`. Recovery and
legacy reconciliation treat the code like the other bootstrap-only
codes. `scheduleBoundedRetryForRun` uses the Runner wait reason and
budget for a mismatch run when a caller gives no reason, and the
recovery sweeper reports exhaustion from that budget
(`failedRunRetryBudgetSpent`). An answered interaction that hits a
mismatch also waits for the Runner, and its successor keeps the resolved
interaction continuation identity.
- Move the managed project auth classification from `heartbeat.ts` to
`classifyManagedProjectAuthFailure` in `run-preparation.ts`. Only a
found `ai_connection_incompatible` conflict becomes a configuration
failure. All other errors keep their own code.
- Recovery notices: `ai_connection_incompatible` now has its own notice
instead of the "secret/env bindings" text. An exhausted Runner wait gets
the notice "Remote Runner is out of date".
- Agent verification: the Runner probe and the managed project auth
precheck report a mismatch as a retryable check.
`assertHarnessTestPassed` maps it to the new lifecycle code
`runner_revision_mismatch`. That code never counts toward the
three-failure park. The agent checks again every 60 s and becomes ready
when the Runner matches.
- Document the error code in `doc/plugins/PLUGIN_ENVIRONMENT_TASKS.md`.

## Verification

- `cd packages/plugins/sdk && npx vitest run
tests/environment-task-error-code.test.ts
tests/environment-task-error.test.ts tests/worker-rpc-host.test.ts`: the
code crosses the real `environmentTask` RPC. A plain error with the same
message gets no code. Other methods get no envelope. The #19302
diagnostic tests still pass.
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/heartbeat/run-completion.test.ts`: a fresh or wrapped
mismatch gets `runner_revision_mismatch` and the runner retry budget,
with no configuration failure. A started, untrusted (message only) or
native run keeps `setup_failed` with no retry. A real
`ai_connection_incompatible` stays `configuration_incomplete` with no
retry. Other errors, such as an unreachable execution host, are not
reported as an authentication conflict.
- `npx vitest run src/services/execution-recovery-attempt.test.ts`:
Runner waits do not change `failureRetries`, and earlier failures do not
shorten the wait.
- `npx vitest run src/services/heartbeat/retries.test.ts
src/modules/run-dispatch` (embedded Postgres): a recovery caller without
options gets the Runner wait budget and its exhaustion. An answered
interaction waits for the Runner, keeps its continuation identity and
does not spend failure retries.
- `npx vitest run src/__tests__/environment-task-runtime.test.ts`:
sanitization keeps only the code. No worker text or cause survives.
- `npx vitest run
src/modules/agent-lifecycle/__tests__/verification-retry.test.ts`
(embedded Postgres): a `verifying` agent keeps checking after five
mismatches. It never gets `retryRequired`. It becomes ready when the
next check passes.
- `npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/plugin-runner-probe-runner-mismatch.test.ts
src/__tests__/agent-harness-verification-remote.test.ts
src/services/recovery/stranded-notice.test.ts
src/services/recovery/service.pause-durability.test.ts
src/services/legacy-execution-recovery.test.ts`.
- `npx tsc --noEmit` passes for `packages/plugins/sdk` and `server`.
- One test in `src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts`
("redacts opaque environment-bound credentials from Sentry diagnostics")
fails on my machine. It fails the same way on the base commit without
this change.
- I did not run the full `pnpm test:run`, `pnpm -r typecheck` or `pnpm
build`. CI covers them.

## Risks

- Low to medium. The change adds one new setup failure code and one
lifecycle code. Other failures keep their current behavior.
- A Runner mismatch must come from a plugin that throws
`PluginEnvironmentTaskError`. Until an environment plugin does that,
behavior is the same as today.
- The run retry budget is 10 minutes. If a Runner update takes longer,
the task goes to board recovery with the Runner notice.
- A remote Runner run without a managed AI connection reaches the Runner
check only after native dispatch. That configuration is not supported,
so this change does not handle it. Such a run keeps the native session
retry (3 attempts, 30 s apart).
- #19172 edits the same precheck call in `agent-environment-test.ts`.
Whichever PR merges second needs a small rebase. Keep the mismatch check
before its generic retryable check.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 00c7738513 fix(task-chat): keep messages sendable after a declined connection request (#19331)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The task chat composer shows a queue of saved input that waits for
the agent's next turn
> - When a person declines a connection request (for example Slack), the
server queues a read-only receipt so the agent learns the outcome
> - The composer showed that receipt with its raw JSON receipt in hover
text, and the receipt hid the person's next message
> - The next message could not be edited, discarded, or sent, so the
chat looked stuck after a simple "Decline"
> - This pull request shows a readable status for receipts and keeps the
person's own later messages visible and actionable
> - The benefit is that declining a connection resolves cleanly and the
conversation continues

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
During an onboarding test on staging, a person declined the agent's
"Connect Slack" request. A queued steering item then stayed above the
composer. It could not be edited. Its hover text showed raw JSON.
Sending the next message produced an error.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Give a task to a Paperclip runner agent whose run is active or waits
on a busy workspace.
2. Let the agent request a connection, then decline it.
3. See the queued item "Rejected: Connect Slack". Hover it: the title is
the full JSON receipt.
4. Send another message. The message never appears in the queue. Its row
controls stay disabled. Send or Interrupt on the receipt queue returns
`409 This queue does not support interruption`.

**Expected behavior**
A declined connection request resolves cleanly. It shows a readable
status. The next message can be sent.

**Evidence (staging wake diagnostics for the test task)**
- 17:52:09: the decline wake for the Slack request. It stayed deferred,
was never claimed, and was skipped at 18:21.
- 17:52:10: a later retry wake for the plan-approval continuation.
- `GET /issues/:id/queued-comments` projects the oldest matching wake.
From 17:52 to 18:21 the composer showed the Slack receipt.

Refs: related to the separate plan-approval queued-message fix, which
changes the recovery sweep. This PR only touches the queue projection
and the receipt label.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/queued-interaction-response.ts`: add
`queuedInteractionSummary()`. A receipt now has one readable line, for
example `Declined: Slack connection`, `Connected: GitHub connection`, or
`Accepted: Build the app`. The entry `source.summary` carries it. The
steering body for the agent still includes the typed JSON receipt.
- `server/src/routes/issues.ts` (`findQueuedCommentWake`): a queued
user-message wake now takes precedence over a receipt wake. A receipt
shows only when it is the only queued input. The receipt wake itself is
unchanged and is still delivered to the agent.
- `server/src/modules/wake-queue/adapters/postgres.ts`
(`findExistingDeferredWake`): skip interaction-receipt wakes when a new
message picks the deferred wake it merges into. Before, the receipt was
the oldest deferred wake, the merge was skipped, and every later message
started its own wake. Only the first message then appeared in the queue.
Receipts still never absorb user input.
- `packages/shared/src/types/issue.ts`: add the optional `summary` field
to `IssueQueuedCommentEntry.source`.
- `ui/src/components/task-chat/TaskChatQueuedMessages.tsx`: add
`queuedMessageLabel()`. The row text, the hover title, and all
aria-labels use the summary. They never use the raw steering body.

## Verification

Red/green tests were written first and run against the unchanged code.

New tests:
- `server/src/__tests__/issue-queued-comments-routes.test.ts`
- `shows a declined connection receipt as a readable status, not its
JSON`
- `keeps the next message visible and actionable after a declined
connection (running run | stopped run)`: declines Slack, posts the next
message, and asserts that the queue lists that message with
`canEdit`/`canDiscard`, that the discard works, and that the receipt
wake is still pending for the agent.
- `queues every later message together after a declined connection
(legacy run | stopped run)`: two messages after a decline both appear in
one editable queue, and the receipt wake keeps no message ids.
- `ui/src/components/task-chat/TaskChatQueuedMessages.test.tsx`
- `shows a declined connection request as readable text, never its raw
JSON receipt (BUG-08)`

**Red (unchanged code):**
```
server: × shows a declined connection receipt as a readable status, not its JSON
        AssertionError: expected { kind: 'interaction', …(3) } to match object { …, summary: 'Declined: Slack connection' }
server: × keeps the next message visible and actionable after a declined connection (running run)
server: × keeps the next message visible and actionable after a declined connection (stopped run)
        AssertionError: ["Declined: Slack connection"]: expected undefined to match object { canEdit: true, canDiscard: true }
        (the queue lists only the receipt; the new message is missing)
        Tests  3 failed | 85 skipped (88)
ui:     × shows a declined connection request as readable text, never its raw JSON receipt (BUG-08)
        AssertionError: expected 'Reorder queued message: Rejected: Con…' not to contain '{'
        Tests  1 failed | 23 skipped (24)
```
An exploratory probe on the unchanged code also showed the send error on
this path: `POST /queued-comments/interrupt` on the receipt queue with a
running native run returns `409 {"error":"This queue does not support
interruption"}`. The exact UI text that the tester saw was not
available.

Second commit (review follow-up), unchanged `findExistingDeferredWake`:
```
server: × queues every later message together after a declined connection (legacy run)
        AssertionError: expected [ Array(1) ] to deeply equal [ …(2) ]
        Tests  1 failed | 1 passed | 88 skipped (90)
```
With the change: `Tests  2 passed | 88 skipped (90)`.

**Green (with this change):**
```
pnpm --filter server exec vitest run src/__tests__/issue-queued-comments-routes.test.ts
  Test Files  1 passed (1)   Tests  90 passed (90)
server: heartbeat-comment-wake-batching + src/modules/wake-queue
  Test Files  11 passed      Tests  322 passed (322)
server: retry-scheduling, wake-diagnostics, question-response-delivery, comment-wake-batching, dot-runner, responsible-user-invariant, stale-queue-invalidation, queued-comments routes
  Test Files  8 passed       Tests  357 passed (357)
pnpm --filter ui exec vitest run src/components/task-chat/TaskChatQueuedMessages.test.tsx src/lib/issue-queued-comment-queue.test.ts
  Test Files  2 passed (2)   Tests  31 passed (31)
server: question-response-delivery, connection-intents-service, satisfied-connection-intents
  Test Files  3 passed       Tests  199 passed (199)
```
A first full run of the route file hit a 30s `beforeAll` timeout while
embedded Postgres started on a loaded machine. One new stopped-run case
was also flaky, because the agent could dispatch the new message before
the assertion. I fixed the flake: the test now occupies the agent on
another task (`maxConcurrentRuns: 1`), which is the existing pattern in
this file. I confirmed again that this test fails without the route fix.

Typecheck: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck`, `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/server typecheck`, and `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui
typecheck` pass. `pnpm check:token-gates`: all gates clean. I did not
run the full `pnpm test:run` or `pnpm build` locally. CI runs them.

## Risks

- Behavior change: when a receipt and a user message wait at the same
time, the composer now shows the message queue. The receipt is no longer
shown there until it is the only queued input. The receipt wake and its
delivery do not change. The resolved card in the thread still shows the
outcome.
- The first line of the steering body for connection receipts changes
from `Rejected: Connect Slack` to `Declined: Slack connection`. The JSON
receipt for the agent does not change.
- Out of scope (unchanged on master, reproduced without any receipt):
while a native run is running, each new message gets its own queued run,
and the queue shows only the first one. Messages that join a
`scheduled_retry` run's context also do not appear in the queue
projection.
- Overlap: the plan-approval queued-message fix (BUG-03) changes the
recovery sweep, not this code. Both fixes touch the same symptom area.
They do not edit the same functions.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, via Claude Code with
tool use (shell, browser inspection of staging, test execution).

b929ad43de fix: keep dependency waits neutral and explain GitHub access failures (#19315)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agent work and shows users what can move it
forward.
> - Task status and tool approval cards describe different parts of that
work.
> - A queued dependency wait has no provider attempt to retry.
> - GitHub can reject an approved action while other connection tools
still work.
> - These cases showed a false Retry banner and an unhelpful provider
error.
> - This pull request keeps dependency waits neutral and gives GitHub
access failures a direct repair path.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #19268 preserves pending Retry preparation and current failure
causes.

**What happened?**

A queued wake cancelled by the dependency gate appeared as a failed
attempt with Retry. A GitHub MCP permission denial appeared as raw HTTP
error text after an approved repository action.

**Expected behavior**

Keep the task's dependency state. Show GitHub access failures with a
clear explanation and a link to the selected connection's Permissions
page. Preserve actual failures, provider details, and approval gates.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Queue a wake, then leave its task dependent on unfinished work before
dispatch.
2. Open the task after the dependency gate cancels that wake.
3. Separately approve a GitHub action whose MCP result contains `403
Resource not accessible by integration`.
4. Reopen the saved tool approval.

## What Changed

- Recognize both queues' unstarted dependency-wait receipts in
cancellation provenance and task projections. No dispatch or recovery
gate changes.
- Classify GitHub's specific permission error after MCP result
normalization. Keep result validation, the raw diagnostic, and working
tools available.
- Apply the same display code to both historical GitHub error codes.
Identify the provider from company-scoped connection metadata, including
renamed apps, without rewriting stored decisions.
- Show a token-based inline access card with **Manage GitHub access**
and collapsed **Error details**.
- Give agents trusted recovery steps after an approved GitHub action
fails. Keep provider text in the untrusted result and prevent automatic
replay.
- Add regressions, a production-component Storybook case, and
execution/connector documentation.

## Verification

- Red before the fix: cancellation provenance, dependency-wait
projection, the real queue cancellation, approved MCP failure
classification, saved interaction projection, and the error card
assertions failed at the expected behavior.
- Green focused tests: queue cancellation, one ready-task executor,
approval-before-dispatch, one failed GitHub request, connection reuse,
retained provider diagnostics, saved interaction reads, task list/detail
projection and redaction.
- UI: 106 component tests passed. Token gates and Storybook catalog
checks passed.
- `node scripts/typecheck-low-memory.mjs`: passed.
- Local source instance: verified a saved dependency wait stays neutral
after reload; a saved GitHub error shows repair guidance, expands its
original error, and opens the correct connection Permissions page.
PostgreSQL and HTTP APIs were real. The GitHub denial was a controlled
MCP fixture; no account or provider permission changed.
- `pnpm build`: passed for all workspace packages, the Runner binary,
server, CLI and UI. The server build and all server typecheck layers
also passed after the review repair.
- Additional safety checks passed for realistic repository arguments,
active recovery, failed Retry preparation, and bounded provider
diagnostics.
- Review repair: 45 pure tests and 7 PostgreSQL cases passed. These
cover both historical error codes, renamed apps, and
company/provider/application identity boundaries. A second local browser
check verified the renamed app, retained error detail, and correct
Permissions destination.
- Final review regressions: the dispatcher and metadata cases failed
before the repair. Afterward, 25 focused cases and 59
projection/identity cases passed, including connection-key precedence.
The native wait and app-only GitHub source also passed a local browser
check.
- The historical read adds at most one connection query per interaction
read batch. It selects IDs and the provider key only and runs only for
candidate permission failures. It adds no provider requests.
- Full local `pnpm test:run` stopped at the chat suite's `afterAll`
cleanup timeout. All 268 assertions in that group and the three prior
chat groups passed. The failure is retained here; it is not counted as a
full-suite pass. CI passed on `e8a692e1e2` after one workspace-startup
rerun. Fresh CI is pending for the combined head. Its first workspace-a
attempt timed out in the CLI company import/export test's child-server
startup wait; 4,968 UI tests and 287 CLI tests passed in that job. The
same shard passed on the preceding commit. The workspace shard passed on
its one rerun. All other test, build and browser jobs passed. The [first
failure](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42093823928/job/127478869941)
is retained in the Actions history. Greptile reviewed the preceding head
at 5/5. Fresh review is pending for the combined head.

## Risks

The GitHub classifier matches the documented permission-denial phrase,
not every 403. Rate limits, missing resources and other providers retain
their existing error behavior. Historical normalization affects display
only. A dependency cancellation needs an unstarted run and a supported
queue receipt; current user gates, Retry preparation and recovery remain
authoritative. No schema migration or credential changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6, through the Codex agent. The exact runtime model ID and
context-window size are not exposed in this session. Used reasoning,
repository tools, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, MCP fixtures and browser
verification. The parallel agent-recovery commit records Anthropic
Claude Opus 5.5 as co-author.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 7644045bc5 fix(server): remove a settle deadlock and three server test races (#19314)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The server Vitest shards gate every pull request
> - Three open pull requests (#19289, #19267, #19266) failed server
tests in code that they do not change
> - Each failure had a different cause. One cause is a real product
deadlock, and three causes are test races
> - Random CI failures slow every contributor and hide real regressions
> - This pull request removes each root cause. It does not add retries
or skips
> - The benefit is fewer false CI failures and one less deadlock in
external-agent settlement

- #19266, job 127404184242: `voice-session-store.integration.test.ts` >
"schedules phone reply retries at the saved rate-limit deadline without
early database scans" failed with a duplicate key on
`companies_issue_prefix_idx`.

**Root causes**

1. Dot deadlock (product bug). `settle` in `native-broker.ts` takes the
external admission guard. Then it updates the same assignment row in two
or more statements. PostgreSQL re-runs the foreign-key checks when a
transaction updates a row version that it wrote earlier, so the second
UPDATE takes `FOR KEY SHARE` on the heartbeat run. Execution admission
locks the issue and the run `FOR UPDATE` before it takes the guard. Thus
settle holds the guard and waits for the run, and admission holds the
run and waits for the guard. The run-event append can queue behind them
as a third participant, and the database can kill it. A local
reproduction with `log_lock_waits` showed the RI check: `SELECT 1 FROM
ONLY heartbeat_runs x WHERE id = $1 FOR KEY SHARE OF x`, during `update
dot_runner_assignments set status='settled'`.
2. Tool-access race (test bug). The empty replacement and the member
cleanup both waited for the first replacement to commit. Both waiters
woke at the same time and raced for the membership row. A replacement
that wins that race widens access before the cleanup, and the product
code documents that outcome as valid ("Whichever transaction wins is
then authoritative"). The test only expected the cleanup to win.
3. Heartbeat timeout (test bug). The run start includes real runtime
skill preparation for a new company. I measured 3.3 s to 5.5 s locally
before the adapter starts. The test gave this step a fixed 3 s budget.
4. Voice prefix collision (test bug). Each of about 110 fixture
companies used `V` plus seven random hex digits as its unique issue
prefix, so two companies could get the same prefix.

**Master:** These tests do not fail on recent master runs (the master
workflows do not run the server shards). The failures are
timing-dependent and are not specific to a branch.

## What Changed

- `server/src/modules/external-agents/native-broker.ts`: `settle` writes
the assignment in one UPDATE. This applies to both Dot and Muse. The
update sets the same columns under the same conditions as before.
- `server/src/__tests__/dot-runner.test.ts`: added "settles
accept/finish under the admission guard without waiting on a run that
admission holds". The test holds the run `FOR UPDATE` like admission
does, then runs settle, then takes the guard. Before the fix, settle
waits and PostgreSQL reports a deadlock. After the fix, settle
completes.
- `server/src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts`: start the empty
replacement after the cleanup holds the membership row. Then wait until
the replacement is blocked by the cleanup. The test still proves that
the replacement re-checks the member status after the cleanup and fails
closed.
- `server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts`: wait for
the adapter to start. Fail at once if the run settles before the adapter
starts. The test timeout is now 30 s, because the start (3 s to 6 s) and
the existing 5 s settle wait came close to the 15 s default.
- `server/src/__tests__/voice-session-store.integration.test.ts`: each
fixture prefix includes a per-run sequence, so prefixes in one run are
always distinct and stay at 10 characters.

## Verification

- Red/green for the deadlock: with the `native-broker.ts` change
removed, both new tests fail with `deadlock detected`. With the change,
both pass.
- `npx vitest run src/__tests__/dot-runner.test.ts` (server): 57 passed.
- Before the fix, I ran the Dot Rust test 8 times with
`deadlock_timeout=50ms` and got the deadlock in about 1 of 8 runs. Two
further runs of 16 iterations each passed.
- `npx vitest run src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts -t
"fail-closed when empty replacement races"`: 3 passed, run 4 times.
- `npx vitest run src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts -t
"does not reap active adapter executions"`: this failed locally before
the change (start took 3.3 s to 5.5 s). It passes after the change.
- `npx vitest run
src/__tests__/voice-session-store.integration.test.ts`: 132 passed.
- `npx vitest run src/__tests__/muse-control.test.ts`: 256 passed. This
file covers the Muse settle path.
- Not run locally: the full `pnpm -r typecheck` / `pnpm test:run` /
`pnpm build`. CI runs them. A server `tsc --noEmit` shows no errors in
the changed lines. The existing errors come from the unbuilt runner
package in this worktree.

## Risks

- Low risk. The settle change keeps the same column writes and
conditions, now in one statement. It removes a lock wait. It does not
add a lock.
- The other changes are only in tests.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 10a7d039c8 fix(dispatch): keep a workspace wait parked while an ended writer's save settles (#19285)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A run that finds its task workspace held by another run waits as a
`workspace_busy` scheduled retry. #19143 keeps that wait as one parked
retry while the holder is live.
> - A remote task workspace stays held by its last writer run until the
writer's save and sandbox release settle. This hold continues after the
writer run ends, for example when a reassignment stops the writer.
> - The parked-wait check counted only a `running` holder. For an ended
writer whose save had not settled, it released the waiter at each due
check. Preparation deferred again, cancelled the run, and created a new
retry run.
> - After a mid-run reassignment, the new owner got five cancelled
`workspace_busy` runs in eleven minutes, and the task did no work.
> - This pull request makes the parked wait use the same writer-hold
rule as workspace reservation, so the waiter stays parked until the hold
releases.
> - The benefit is one durable wait, one start when the hold releases,
and no churn of cancelled runs.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19143 (parks a workspace-busy wait). Refs #19184 (releases a
recovered hold for a new assignee after reassignment).

**What happened?**
A board user reassigned a task in the middle of a run. The old run was
cancelled with `issue_reassigned`. The new assignee's runs were each
created, started and cancelled with `workspace_busy`: "Shared execution
workspace is busy: run … ended, but its workspace save has not settled".
This repeated every 1–2 minutes (five cancelled runs in 11 minutes).
Every cancellation named the stopped run of the previous assignee as the
holder. The new assignee's other tasks were not the holder.

**Expected behavior**
The reassigned task waits as one parked retry. It starts once when the
stopped writer's save and sandbox release settle. The wait stops at the
one-hour holder cutoff.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Give a task a remote execution workspace whose writer run has ended,
but whose save has not settled (`writerRunId` set, `dirty: true`).
2. Wake the task's assignee. The run defers with `workspace_busy` and
schedules a retry.
3. Make the retry due and promote scheduled retries. Before this fix,
the retry is promoted and dispatched, defers again, and creates another
run.

## What Changed

- New `server/src/services/remote-workspace-writer-hold.ts`:
`readRemoteWorkspaceWriterHold` holds the rule for who holds a remote
workspace (a running writer, or an ended writer whose save or sandbox
release has not settled). The code is moved from
`reserveRemoteWorkspace` without a behavior change.
- `reserveRemoteWorkspace` uses that function. It throws the same errors
as before.
- `parkWorkspaceBusyRetryInTx` (from #19143): when the recorded holder
is not running, it reads the same hold for the waited execution
workspace. If the recorded holder is an ended writer that still holds
it, the retry stays parked. The cutoff clock starts at the writer's end,
the same value that reservation measures. Earlier waiters keep their
arrival order.
- New `WORKSPACE_BUSY_SETTLING_RECHECK_MS` (60 s). Settling has no
single completion point that can wake the waiter, so a wait behind a
settling writer re-checks every minute. Each check creates no run. In
the promotion transaction it reads the workspace, the writer run, its
task, and the writer's leases (one row per sandbox lease of that run).
The checks last only while the wait exists, up to the one-hour cutoff.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: documents the parked wait behind a
settling writer.

## Verification

- Red before the fix: `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-remote-workspace-busy.test.ts`. The two new
tests failed: the due retry was promoted (`expected [ … ] to not include
'<retry id>'`).
- Green after the fix, with:
- `parks one waiter while an ended writer's save settles, then admits it
once the hold releases`: three due checks keep one parked run, each
re-check is bounded by the writer's end plus one hour, there is one
`workspace_busy` cancellation in total and no new retry run. After the
hold releases, the next check promotes the same run.
- `stops parking behind an ended writer once its unsettled save reaches
the holder cutoff`: parked before the cutoff, promoted after it
(preparation then fails with the existing unfinished-writer error).
- Existing suites pass: `heartbeat-workspace-busy.test.ts` (live-holder
parking, arrival order, stop, workspace move), `modules/run-dispatch`,
`remote-workspace-reservation.test.ts`,
`remote-workspaces.integration.test.ts`,
`isolated-remote-workspace-source.test.ts`,
`heartbeat/workspace-preparation.test.ts` (476 tests in all).
- `tsc --noEmit` for `server` shows no errors in the changed files.
- Not done: a live run on staging. The fix is not deployed.

## Risks

- Low. Parking applies only to a retry that recorded a `workspace_busy`
wait on an execution workspace whose recorded writer is that holder. If
the hold settles, moves to another run, or the task changes workspace,
the retry is released to normal dispatch as before.
- The wait stays bounded by the existing one-hour holder cutoff from the
writer's end. After that, preparation fails as before. A user can still
stop the parked run.
- One writer per workspace is unchanged. Reservation still decides
admission with the same rule.
- The one-minute re-check runs only while a wait exists. It is not idle
polling.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 06826915d7 fix(dispatch): park a workspace-busy wait instead of recreating runs (#19143)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Child tasks can reuse their parent's execution workspace. Only one
run at a time may write in a shared sandbox workspace.
> - A run that finds the workspace held by another live run waits with a
`workspace_busy` scheduled retry.
> - That wait cancelled the run and created a new retry run every 60–120
seconds, until the holder ended. Each check made one cancelled run
record.
> - Three sibling tasks that waited for a parent made 15 cancelled runs
in 13 minutes. They also got the workspace in random order, not in
arrival order.
> - This pull request keeps the waiting run as one parked retry while
its holder is live, and wakes it when the holder ends.
> - The benefit is a clean run history, a prompt handoff, and fair
arrival-order access to a shared workspace.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18691 (the workspace wait for a live holder). Refs #19075 (sends a
stopped writer with a pending save into the same wait). Refs #12587 (an
earlier proposal about fairness for this retry).

**What happened?**
A parent task delegated three subtasks that inherit its execution
workspace. Each subtask run was created, then cancelled with
`workspace_busy` ("Shared execution workspace is busy: run … is still
running"), then created again about every 1.5–2 minutes. One subtask got
8 cancelled runs, one got 5, and one got 2. Every cancellation named a
holder that was really running: first the parent run, then the sibling
that got the workspace. So serialization was correct. The cost was the
churn of run records, and the subtask that waited first ran last.

**Expected behavior**
A run that needs a busy shared workspace waits as one durable record. It
continues when the holder finishes. Siblings that wait for one workspace
get it one at a time, in arrival order. Two writers never share the
workspace, and the user can still stop a waiting run.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Bind two or more issues to one shared execution workspace in a
sandbox environment.
2. Keep a run live on one issue (the holder).
3. Wake the other issues. Before this change, each due check promotes
the retry, cancels it with `workspace_busy`, and creates a new retry
run. After this change, the retry stays parked until the holder ends.

**Paperclip version or commit**
Observed on staging at `53735db7`. The code is unchanged on `master`.

## What Changed

- `finalizeWorkspaceBusyDeferral` records
`contextSnapshot.workspaceBusyWait` = `{ key, holderRunId, waitingSince
}`. The key is `execution:<id>` or `project:<id>`. `waitingSince`
carries over when the run defers again for the same workspace.
- New `server/src/modules/run-dispatch/adapters/workspace-busy-wait.ts`:
- `parkWorkspaceBusyRetryInTx` runs in the scheduled-retry promotion
transaction, after the existing gate allows the retry. If the recorded
holder is still running and is not stale, or an earlier waiter for the
same workspace is still scheduled, queued, or running, the retry stays
`scheduled_retry`. Only its deadline moves. It does not create a run, an
event, or a wake. The fallback deadline is 5 minutes, and never later
than the holder's one-hour stale point.
- `wakeWorkspaceBusyWaitersInTx` runs in the transaction that ends a
running run (`writeRunStatus`). It makes due the retries that wait for
that run, and the retries that wait for the same workspace as that run.
It registers the scheduled-retry dispatch notification before the write.
- `WORKSPACE_BUSY_HOLDER_STALE_AFTER_MS` moves to the run-dispatch
domain, so the deferral gate and the parked check use one value.
`heartbeat/retries.ts` exports it again.
- A retry without a recorded wait (for example, a retry from before this
change) keeps the old behavior.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md` describes the parked wait.

## Verification

- Red before the fix, green after
(`server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-workspace-busy.test.ts`, "reused shared
execution workspace in a sandbox"):
- "waits on a live holder in one parked run, then runs once when the
holder ends": before, the retry was promoted while the holder was live.
After, it stays parked through due checks at +1 s, +10 min, and +30 min.
Ending the holder makes it due at once. It runs exactly once, and there
is only one `workspace_busy` cancellation.
- "hands the workspace to three waiting siblings in arrival order, one
writer at a time": before, nothing woke the waiters when the holder
ended. After, exactly one waiter is admitted per handoff, in arrival
order. Each runs once, and there are 3 cancellations in total (one first
deferral for each sibling).
- "still lets the user stop a parked waiter": before, the waiter was
promoted while the holder was live. After, Stop cancels the parked
retry, and nothing brings it back.
- Safety case (green before and after): "lets a stale holder reach the
existing quiet-holder failure instead of parking forever".
- `npx vitest run src/__tests__/heartbeat-workspace-busy.test.ts`: 35
passed.
- `heartbeat-remote-workspace-busy`, `heartbeat-retry-scheduling`,
`src/modules/run-dispatch`, `heartbeat/retries.test.ts`,
`execution-projection.test.ts`: 266 of 267 passed. The one failure,
"records pre-provider quota rejection…", is a timing flake on a loaded
machine and passes when it runs alone. It does not use this path.
- `tsc --noEmit` reports no errors in the changed files.
- Staging evidence was read only. This change is not deployed.

## Risks

- One extra indexed `SELECT … FOR UPDATE` on `scheduled_retry` rows when
a running run ends. The update and the notification happen only when
waiters exist.
- If an earlier waiter stays queued for a long time (for example, its
agent is paused), later waiters for the same workspace wait behind it.
Each check is a deadline update, not a run. The fallback check runs
every 5 minutes.
- A remote writer that has ended but has not finished its save (#19075)
is not parked, because its run is no longer `running`. Such a wait can
still make a small number of deferrals until the save settles.
- Low migration risk: no schema change. Old retries without the new
context key keep the old behavior.

## Model Used

file edits, browser read of staging run records) in Claude Code.

19c710fe93 fix(issues): record an interrupt comment as the user's Stop (#19149)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A board user can interrupt a running agent with a comment
(`interrupt: true`) to redirect the work
> - An interrupt is a Stop plus a message, but it did not record the
user's stop identity the way the Stop control does
> - The release path therefore treated an interrupted native run as a
failed run: it blocked the task and took the finalization lease from the
runner that was still settling
> - Workspace preservation then stopped the sandbox under that live
runner, so the runner reconnected for about 6 minutes and the stop could
not be verified afterward
> - The redirect message stayed saved, but it waited on workspace repair
that could not finish
> - This pull request records the board user's stop identity on
interrupts, the same as the Stop control and terminalization stops
> - The benefit is that an interrupt now settles like a Stop and the
redirect can continue

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19122 (the Stop-then-redirect fix for the dispatch gate; this PR
covers the interrupt-comment path).

**What happened?**
A board user posted a comment with `interrupt: true` on a task with a
running native run (Daytona sandbox). The run was cancelled with
`operator_interrupted` and the native cancel was acknowledged. Within a
second, the task went to `blocked` and a
`native_continuation_requires_reconciliation` hold was created. The
runner transport then logged `state=reconnecting` for about 6 minutes,
and the run ended with `runner_process_termination_unconfirmed: ...
Daytona sandbox lease ... is no longer active`. Workspace recovery
started about 10–17 minutes later and failed with
`agent_stop_unconfirmed` / `provider_unavailable`. The redirect comment
stayed saved as a deferred wake waiting on `workspace_repair_required`.
No follow-up run started.

**Expected behavior**
An interrupt behaves like Stop followed by a message. The stopped runner
settles normally. The task is not blocked as a failure. The saved
message continues once the previous execution has stopped.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a native run on a remote sandbox.
2. Post a board comment with `interrupt: true`.
3. Observe the task become `blocked` with a
`native-continuation:<runId>` hold, and the run's finalization row
rewritten to `terminal_failure` with no lease owner while the executor
is still settling.
4. Observe workspace preservation stop the sandbox, the runner transport
reconnect until its grace ends, and recovery fail to confirm the stop.

**Root cause**
`recordNativeTerminalRecoveryIfNeeded`
(`server/src/modules/wake-queue/adapters/postgres.ts`) skips intentional
stops through `isAcknowledgedNativeStop`. That check requires
`resultJson.cancelledByActorType === "user"` and `cancelledByUserId`.
The Stop control and terminalization stops record these fields.
`operatorInterruptCancelOptions` (`server/src/routes/issues.ts`)
recorded only `interruptedByActorType` / `interruptedByActorId`. So an
acknowledged interrupt took the failure branch. That branch blocks the
task and sets `nativeRunFinalizations` to `terminal_failure` with
`leaseOwner: null`. Cancelled-workspace preservation then saw a terminal
row with no owner and stopped the sandbox while the runner was still
settling.

**Paperclip version or commit**
Seen on staging at 69dea878c0. The touched
code is unchanged on current `master`.

**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Not adapter-specific (core bug). Seen with the Paperclip runner adapter
on a Daytona sandbox.

## What Changed

- `operatorInterruptCancelOptions` now records `cancelledByActorType:
"user"` and `cancelledByUserId` for a board user, in addition to the
existing interrupt fields. All three interrupt call sites (comment POST,
issue PATCH, queued-comment interrupt) use it.
- Route regression in `issue-update-comment-wakeup-routes.test.ts`: an
`interrupt: true` comment on a running native run sends these fields,
and the route's actual fields satisfy `isAcknowledgedNativeStop` with an
acknowledged native stop receipt.
- Release-path regression in `wake-queue/adapters/postgres.test.ts`: an
acknowledged interrupt Stop, while the executor still owns finalization,
releases the task without blocking it, creates no recovery hold, keeps
the finalization lease owner, and keeps the saved redirect deferred.

## Verification

- Red before the fix:
- The route test failed because `cancelRun` received no
`cancelledByActorType` / `cancelledByUserId`.
- The release-path test failed with the old interrupt fields: the task
was blocked, a hold was created, and the finalization owner was cleared.
- Green after the fix:
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/issue-update-comment-wakeup-routes.test.ts
src/modules/wake-queue`
- Related suites: `acknowledged-native-stop`,
`issue-queued-comments-routes`, `issue-comment-reopen-routes`,
`issue-execution-policy-routes`, `explicit-native-continuation`,
`heartbeat-process-recovery`.
- The staging incident was read through the read-only run, event, log,
recovery-action and wake diagnostics APIs.
- Not done: a live staging reproduction at the fixed revision.
Deployment is out of scope.

## Risks

- An interrupt now counts as the user's Stop everywhere the Stop control
does. This includes case-handoff supersession in `cancelRun`: an
interrupt supersedes a pending case handoff, like Stop.
- Only board users get the stop identity. Agent actors cannot use
`interrupt: true` (the route returns 403).
- Runs interrupted before this change keep their old fields. They are
not migrated.
- Not changed here, and suitable for follow-ups:
- `recordNativeTerminalRecoveryIfNeeded` can still clear a live
finalization `leaseOwner` for other failed native runs.
- The runner PRP ingress reconnect loop
(`server/src/realtime/runner-prp-outbound.ts`) does not stop early when
the sandbox lease is closed.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, in Claude Code with
tool use (shell, file edits, subagent code tracing, browser for
read-only staging diagnostics).

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
After Stop, a user posted a redirect comment with resume intent. The
follow-up run was created while the stopped run was still persisting its
checkpoint. When settlement finished, the dispatch gate cancelled the
follow-up run with `execution_reconciliation_required` and an
empty-looking error ("Recovering saved work…"). The user's wake was
marked `skipped`. Nothing woke the task again. It stayed `in_progress`
with no active or queued run.

**Expected behavior**
The message sent after Stop runs exactly once after the stopped run
settles. The task never rests in progress with no run and no pending
wake.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a native run whose stopped source has no native workspace-sync
baseline (for example a remote-workspace sandbox run).
2. Stop the run.
3. Post a comment with resume intent while the stopped run still
persists its checkpoint.
4. Let settlement record the workspace recovery hold.
5. Observe that the queued follow-up run is cancelled with
`execution_reconciliation_required` and its wake is `skipped`.

**Root cause**
`deferUnstartedUserComment` in
`server/src/modules/run-dispatch/adapters/postgres.ts` saved a withheld
user comment only when the stopped source had a native workspace-sync
baseline (the copyback replay case). The enqueue path saves or admits
the same message when it arrives after the hold exists. The gap was only
timing.

Refs #18332 (added the native-baseline-only deferral this PR widens).

**Paperclip version or commit**
Reproduced on `master` at e107a75755. The
touched code is unchanged on current `master`.

**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Not adapter-specific (core bug). Seen with the Paperclip runner adapter.

## What Changed

- `deferUnstartedUserComment` now saves a withheld user comment as a
`deferred_issue_execution` receipt for any stopped native source when
the latest saved comment was written after the source's Stop
(`finishedAt`).
- The native-baseline copyback path is unchanged.
- Input written before the Stop keeps the old behavior (`skipped`).
Older queued input cannot undo a Stop.
- Delivery uses the existing deferred-receipt path
(`resumeRemoteStopComments` / `resumeDeferredExecutionReceipts` →
`admitExplicitNativeContinuation` with `queuedCommentRequestId`). All
continuation gates still apply.
- New regression in `workspace-recovery.test.ts` that controls the
timing: the message is queued while the stopped run is still active,
then the hold is recorded, then the gate runs.
- The existing snapshot-only queued-reset tests asserted the dropped
message. They now assert that the message is saved and delivered once,
like the native-baseline case.

## Verification

- Red before the fix: the new test failed with the wake `status:
"skipped"`.
- Green after the fix:
- `cd server && npx vitest run src/services/workspace-recovery.test.ts`
(308 passed)
- `cd server && npx vitest run src/modules/run-dispatch
src/__tests__/heartbeat-undispatched-execution-wait.test.ts
src/__tests__/issue-queued-comments-routes.test.ts
src/services/explicit-native-continuation.test.ts
src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts
src/services/execution-continuation.test.ts`
- Safety cases in the new test:
- The redirect is saved, then delivered as exactly one successor run
with the original user's authority. The old provider run is not
executed.
- Input written before the Stop stays skipped and creates no successor.
- The UI Stop button uses the same `POST /heartbeat-runs/:id/cancel`
path. A comment with `interrupt: true` cancels through the same
`cancelRun` and then queues the comment wake. Both reach the same gate.
These were checked by code reading, not by a separate test.
- Not done: a live staging reproduction at the fixed revision.
Deployment is out of scope.

## Risks

- Behavior change: for sources without a native baseline, a post-Stop
message is now saved and delivered after recovery, instead of dropped.
Admission still blocks it until workspace repair is verified and the
previous execution has stopped. While blocked, the task shows "Your
message is saved."
- If admission never succeeds, the message stays saved and visible.
Before, it was silently lost.
- No schema or API change.

DottaandPaperclip d8c1b9d4b5 fix(runtime): reclaim failed remote checkpoint retries (#18877)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native recovery must preserve the original execution and provider
state.
> - A failed remote run can retain its provider PID after heartbeat
releases the task execution lock.
> - Normal resumption excludes that PID, while restart recovery rejects
the released lock.
> - Recovery must reclaim that exact execution only after current
admission and durable ownership checks pass.
> - Failed retries and admission holds need separate finite budgets.
Neither can prove a provider stopped.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A failed remote native run remains in retryable failure without a task
execution owner. Normal resumption and restart recovery both reject it
before inspecting the preserved remote provider. The current remote
workspace reference format also misses the due-retry routing path.

**Expected behavior**

A due exact-checkpoint retry reclaims its original task execution only
when current ownership and safety gates permit it. Newer task input
prevents an old claim. Lost or ambiguous provider state still prevents
replay or replacement. Ineligible recovery eventually becomes a quiet
manual reconciliation obligation.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a remote native run and persist its provider checkpoint and
encrypted Runner authority.
2. Fail with exact-checkpoint recovery and a retained remote PID.
3. Release the task execution lock at heartbeat completion.
4. Run ordinary resumption and restart recovery after the retry
deadline.
5. Observe that both reject the same eligible run before remote
inspection.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced from source at `d59791828482`; integrated with upstream
`db9be4c5a6`.

**Deployment mode**

Remote workspaces with PostgreSQL. Local regressions use disposable
PostgreSQL and encrypted checkpoint persistence.

Related public repairs #18846, #18854, #18860 and #18841 cover finished
per-turn owners, pre-provider failures, unstarted follow-ups and storage
migration. They do not reclaim this failed run's released execution
lock. Merged #18879 also adds scheduled-resume lock retention and
reclaim. This PR keeps that compatibility and requires encrypted Runner
authority, canonical source ordering and a charged failed retry before
reclaim. Its scheduled-resume regression now uses a real encrypted
authority and retains a snapshot-only refusal control.

## What Changed

- Share normal admission checks and one guarded execution-binding
restore/event helper between normal and remote resumption.
- Keep agent-name normalization in a module with no imports. Preserve
heartbeat's existing export. Native admission no longer loads heartbeat
orchestration for a string key.
- Recheck company, assignment, agent eligibility, Stop, pause, approval,
dependencies, execution and checkout ownership before reclaim.
- Reject newer task input using PostgreSQL creation-time and ID
ordering, preserving timestamp precision.
- Require the recorded remote target, encrypted Runner authority, exact
checkpoint identity and existing controller fence.
- Commit task binding, controller lease, run status and recovery event
atomically. Recognize both remote workspace reference formats.
- Charge failed reattachments against the existing
three-provider-attempt budget, including retained-lock crash windows.
Active controller adoption preserves its charged attempt.
- Use the existing five-retry/30-minute system-recovery policy for
admission holds. Ended tasks and newer sources exhaust it immediately.
Preserve PID, checkpoint and task bindings, suppress resource
settlement, and assign manual reconciliation with executor stop/state
explicitly unverified.
- Register recovery intent before deadline writes; preserve live/future
deadlines quietly and roll back zero-row writes. Record changed hold
reasons once and terminal dispositions separately.
- Keep historical provider-budget exhaustion behind current
admission/source/controller/authority checks. Make an existing
orphan-cleanup fixture explicitly due.
- Include exact plugin task leases that have no workspace reference.
Reuse every reclaim and retry-budget guard, with a bounded
company/task/run lease projection.
- Share strict manual ownership proof across stale-lock cleanup,
adoption, queue release and wake admission. Require termination receipts
for every exact remote lease before normal cleanup can release either
binding.
- Preserve governing Stop through the existing audited cancellation
path. Its acknowledgement does not release an unverified provider.
Ordinary Retry can wait for exact Stop and file preservation, then queue
one continuation.

## Verification

- Current head is `5d7baf74aa89d00d7ac6e1493d38a6ce2ae7b7b5`. Its
[current CI
matrix](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41782198858)
is terminal and clean: 54 successful, three skipped and two neutral
contexts. Required `ci / verify` and `ci / e2e` pass. Greptile is 5/5 on
this exact head with no open findings. No fresh Paperclip 5/5 assessment
is claimed.
- The [prior complete CI
matrix](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41754365388)
passed on `3e641466d3edcaa6dd5021d979627082d388eb05`, with Greptile and
Paperclip both 5/5 and no open threads.
- All 233 tests across the six affected heartbeat, restart-isolation,
remote-admission, scheduled-resume and session-binding families pass on
production-identical `a5104fa89f9cb493091e000bf21ed3858871ae46` under
Node 24.22.2 and pnpm 9.15.4. They cover both workspace formats and
plugin task leases, competing controllers, exact rollback, Stop,
assignment/company boundaries, attempts, work-intent ordering, finite
backoff and quiet held state.
- The merge preserves #18931's per-run audit-failure isolation and this
PR's unchanged-transition hold. Two initial composition cases failed
because their setup or expected result described the older contract. The
rollback test now expects the exact per-run deferral while retaining
full coordinator equality and no work intent. The routine fixture writes
a real encrypted checkpoint through the normal owner before reaching the
actual routine unique constraint. No production admission guard or
rollback assertion was weakened. A separate agent reviewed this exact
merge and fixture delta without finding a blocker.
- Full recursive `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass on production
merge `89c616fe45ceff75db450f67fd34224b4df7441d`. Subsequent commits
change only three test files. Both the two-file `a5104fa` and final
`5d7baf` server test-layer typechecks pass.
- Four production-identical `a5104fa` probes pass with the rebuilt
actual Rust Runner, a scripted ACPX subprocess and encrypted PostgreSQL
checkpoints under Node 24.22.2. Workspace-reference and plugin-lease
admission each cover surviving and lost providers. Replacement preserves
one provider launch, one original side effect, the charged attempt and
restored task execution binding. Lost providers reject snapshot recovery
without replacement. This is protocol-boundary evidence, not a live
Claude or hosted provisioning claim.
- Initial `a5104fa` CI found one additional routine integration fixture
missing the persisted `exact_checkpoint_resume` mode. Its encrypted
checkpoint was already present. The exact case fails locally before
repair and passes after recording that mode and expecting the charged
provider attempt. Every exact routine conflict, rollback, checkpoint,
task binding, successor-count and sibling-startup assertion remains.
Final head changes only that fixture. The correct native-server group
passes all nine files: 175 executed cases and 14 container-only skips,
matching the now-successful native-server CI gate.
- The earlier canonical HTTP Retry acceptance passed on the prior
reviewed head with real PostgreSQL, the recovery worker and real files.
Pending Stop protects both bindings and starts no successor. Exact
termination and copyback queue one preserved-workspace continuation. No
browser or live-model outcome is inferred from that test.
- The predecessor's full local `pnpm test:run` failed in an unchanged
Discord Gateway fixture with a 200 ms lease and a 422 initial ownership
error. Focused predecessor and untouched-base controls pass; that
full-run cause remains unproved. The required command was also started
on production-identical `a5104fa`. All six local chat shards passed,
covering 1,850 cases. The duplicate local invocation was interrupted
with SIGINT while the general-server group was still running after this
head's complete CI and the combined repair qualification had passed. The
wrapper exited 1 on cancellation, no process retained its test log, and
no full local pass is claimed. An earlier attempt to select the native
lane through the CI wrapper instead selected local package sharding:
2,631 cases passed and 13 failed. Those separate failures are retained
without causal attribution or unrelated source changes; that run is not
counted as native-server qualification. The direct native group and
current complete CI matrix pass.
- Live Claude Opus 5.5 continuation, hosted plugin provisioning,
deployment and recovery of historical tasks remain unverified. No
original task was retried or mutated for this verification.

## Risks

- Restoring a task binding grants remote inspection; it does not prove
that the provider survived.
- Unknown effects, lost providers and missing semantic results retain
their existing reconciliation requirements.
- Exhausted admission holds preserve execution bindings and resource
evidence for manual reconciliation. They do not authorize a fresh
executor or provider/resource release.
- The source guard is conservative: newer task input prevents recovery
of an older failed source.
- No database migration or provider profile change is required.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with reasoning, tool use, code editing and
shell execution. The runtime does not expose the exact model snapshot or
context window size.

DottaandPaperclip f211d44c00 fix(heartbeat): preserve queued coalesced comments at claim (#18913)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and their work.
> - The wake queue records task comments before an agent starts.
> - A queued run can accept another comment through coalescing.
> - Claim rebuilds that run's input from its primary wake.
> - Coalescing updated the run and its receipt but left the primary
batch unchanged.
> - This change saves the accepted batch atomically in the owning
writer.
> - The benefit is complete input at claim without repeating old work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #18887 preserves offline queued turns. #13948 addresses
equivalent automatic wake deduplication. This change repairs the
accepted comment batch at the existing claim boundary.

**What happened?**

A queued run started with comment A. Admission accepted comment B, saved
`[A, B]` in the run context, and finished B's coalesced receipt. The
primary wake still held `[A]`. Actual claim rebuilt input from that wake
and dropped B.

**Expected behavior**

Claim must retain every accepted live comment in order. Stop, changed
source authority, deleted comments, and company boundaries must still
apply. Already claimed wakes must retain their existing recovery source.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Queue a task run whose primary wake has an authoritative comment
batch `[A]`.
2. Admit comment B through `createHeartbeatQueue.enqueueWakeup` and the
real Postgres admission writer.
3. Confirm that admission accepts `[A, B]` and records B's coalesced
receipt.
4. Claim the original queued run. Before this fix, the claimed input
contains only A.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The untouched producer regression fails on
`d7283e875772ca8c684dc86e471e6b48d543b7b1` with both process and native
Runner/Codex adapter selection. Provider execution is disabled in the
fixture.

## What Changed

- Save the accepted comment batch in the unclaimed primary wake, run
context, and coalesced receipt in one transaction.
- Lock the primary wake before the run. Recheck the expected run status
and same-company, same-agent and run bindings; apply the existing actor
equality fence only to durable receipts before mutation.
- Preserve incoming input as normal deferred work when the locked source
changed. Preserve receipt identity and actor fields.
- Preserve the original primary actor and trigger comment while updating
its accepted batch. Each incoming receipt retains its actual actor. Keep
claimed source payloads and legacy envelopes on their existing recovery
paths.
- Safely defer a same-named different agent without rewriting the
original agent's run, wake or receipt. Missing and foreign-company
targets remain rejected. Do not rebuild input from historical receipts.
- Add actual process/native producer, real database rollback, Stop,
deletion, foreign-source, and fallback controls. Update three direct
writer fixtures for the required expected-status contract.

## Verification

- The untouched process and native producer red on
`d7283e875772ca8c684dc86e471e6b48d543b7b1` loses accepted comment B at
actual claim. The initial incomplete mock is retained separately and
excluded from behavioral proof.
- Current process/native matrix: 22 passed, including mixed authors,
system primary, same-named different agents, changed status, claimed
sources, Stop, deletion and foreign-source boundaries. Queue, Postgres
admission and use-case suites passed 234 cases before the
source-preserving serializer follow-up; its 22 actual producer cases
passed again afterward.
- CI on the previous head found a real ordinary mixed-author
workspace-copyback regression. The earlier 13-case selection omitted
this test; that coverage gap is preserved. The first correction exposed
a second real source-provenance/copyback failure. After preserving the
primary trigger and actor while updating only its batch, the complete
workspace recovery file passed all 188 cases, including ordinary
mixed-author input and native copyback.
- Real HTTP queued-comment consumption, discard/reorder and Stop
boundaries: 101 passed before these review corrections. Existing chat
and Slack consumers each passed their selected real writer case.
- Previous-head CI also timed out in the CLI child-server startup
fixture and a ZIP transfer case. The full untouched transfer file passed
17 cases locally. Startup remains unclassified; its intentionally
reserved port is part of the fixture and is not diagnosed as the cause.
No CI retry was issued.
- An earlier queue run passed its 231 assertions but timed out during
teardown; its preserved replay passed all 60 queue cases. This is
distinct from the behavioral reds.
- Exact `ab59d944895774d89f950248e356e93af00f4832` server type layers
and production server/Runner build passed. The unchanged-default
serializer file passed all 11 cases. Current-head CI and both
substantive reviews remain required; previous grades and checks do not
qualify this head.
- No hosted task was retried or changed. Local tests do not establish
any hosted deferred event's cause, provider execution, native
acknowledgement, physical cleanup, or serving revision.

## Risks

- Admission now performs bounded row reads and locks for each coalesced
wake. It adds no idle scan or remote request. The existing task
transaction owns the operation; lock order follows queued claim.
- Claimed-wake recovery uses source identity. Its payload remains
unchanged, and the existing actual native copyback tests cover that
boundary.
- A source that changes before the lock can defer the new input. This
preserves work instead of consuming it into a stale run. No migration or
historical backfill is required.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol`, with reasoning, repository inspection, shell
execution, and test tools. The runtime does not report the
context-window size. A separate OpenAI coordinator reviewed the source.

Devin FoleyandClaude Opus 5.5 ad5cd785b1 fix(wake-queue): keep promoted Retry runs scoped to their issue (#18876)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The wake queue starts the next run for a task when the task's
current run releases its execution lock.
> - A board Retry saves a receipt with only `{ issueId, taskRetry }`.
This receipt has no saved wake context.
> - When the release drain promotes that receipt, the promoted context
gets `taskKey` from the payload, but it does not get `issueId` or
`taskId`.
> - The new run takes the task's execution lock, but the database saves
it as a company-scoped run with no issue.
> - Low-trust workspace preparation then has no issue reference. The run
fails before provider work with "Low-trust execution issue is outside
the active trust boundary."
> - This pull request restores the issue scope of a payload-only receipt
during promotion.
> - The benefit is that a Retry on a low-trust task runs in its task
boundary and does not fail during setup.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
A user clicked Retry on a low-trust task while a run was busy. When the
busy run ended, the release drain promoted the saved Retry receipt. The
promoted run had `issue_id = NULL`, `scope_kind = company`, and a
context snapshot with only `taskKey`, `wakeReason: task_retry`,
`wakeSource`, and `wakeTriggerDetail`. Workspace preparation failed with
`low_trust_boundary_mismatch` (HTTP 422) in the setup phase.

**Expected behavior**
A promoted run for a task must keep that task's issue scope. This is
true also when the deferred receipt has no saved wake context. Workspace
preparation must then evaluate the task's own trust boundary.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Use a task with a low-trust execution policy whose assignee is an
agent.
2. While a run on that task is busy, click Retry on the task.
3. Let the busy run end. The release drain promotes the deferred Retry
receipt.
4. The promoted run is company-scoped with no `issueId`. It fails in
setup with `low_trust_boundary_mismatch`.

**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at 51d1d4ce07.

**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Not adapter-specific (core bug).

## What Changed

- `enrichPromotedWakeContext`
(`server/src/modules/wake-queue/domain/context.ts`) now restores
`issueId` and `taskId` from the payload when the deferred context does
not have them. This is the same rule that the original wake enrichment
uses. The function does not overwrite a value that the queued context
already has.
- I added a domain test for the payload-only receipt and for the
no-overwrite rule.
- I added a Postgres adapter test
(`adapters/promoted-retry-scope.test.ts`). It runs the real release
drain with a Retry receipt that has no saved wake context. It checks
that the promoted run is issue-scoped and holds the task's execution
lock. The database trigger `set_heartbeat_run_scope_kind` derives
`issue_id` and `scope_kind` from the restored context `issueId`.

## Verification

- Red before the fix: both new tests fail on unchanged `master`. The
adapter test shows the incident shape: `issueId: null`, `scopeKind:
"company"`, and `taskKey` equal to the issue UUID.
- Green after the fix:
- `pnpm vitest run server/src/modules/wake-queue/` passes (10 files, 289
tests).
- The related suites pass (11 files, 468 tests): `heartbeat/queue`,
`heartbeat/run-control`, `heartbeat/run-lifecycle`,
`deferred-execution-receipt-work`, `execution-lock-orphan-cleanup`,
`heartbeat-comment-wake-batching`, `issue-stale-execution-lock-routes`,
`chat-failed-run-retry-boundary`, `task-retry`,
`execution-control-work`, and `workspace-recovery`.
- Server typecheck (`node server/scripts/typecheck-layers.mjs`) passes.
- I did not run a live low-trust Retry on a deployed stack. The adapter
test uses the real release drain, the real database trigger, and the
persisted receipt shape that `requestTaskRetry` writes.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change only adds `issueId` and `taskId` when they are
missing and the payload has them. Deferred wakes that already have a
queued context do not change.
- The release drain still promotes a board Retry receipt directly. It
does not go through `resumeTaskRetry`. This PR does not change that
path. A promoted Retry therefore does not get `forceFreshSession` or
`taskRetryRequestId`. This behavior existed before this PR. It is a
possible follow-up, not part of this fix.

## Model Used

- Anthropic Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), used through Claude
Code with tool use (code search, shell, and test execution).

ce332ecec0 fix(execution-admission): keep admitted project sets after settlement (#18871)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - #18746 added execution-admission storage: one admission row per
attempt and one charge row per admitted project.
> - Settlement deletes every charge row. The admission row keeps only
the primary project and an opaque context revision.
> - Thus, after settlement, the complete admitted project set is lost.
> - A retained provider session still carries the references of its
previous admission. Example: a task mentions A and B, the admission
settles, and then a user removes B from the task text. The next
admission must still count B, or start a fresh context. The primary
project or the context token cannot supply B.
> - This pull request keeps the complete admitted set on the admission
row after settlement. Charge rows stay the only active capacity.
> - The benefit is that later retained-session resolution can read the
previous set. Settled history does not hold capacity or block project
deletion.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18746 (corrects its storage). Related: #2831, #14333.

**Subsystem affected**

Server execution admission (`server/src/modules/execution-admission/`)
and the `packages/db` schema.

**Problem or motivation**

`settleAdmission` deletes all charges of an admission. No other storage
records the complete project set. After settlement, the set cannot be
recovered. Current task text is not a replacement, because it can change
after admission.

**Proposed solution**

Add `execution_admissions.admitted_project_ids uuid[]`. It holds the
sorted, distinct set. It is written once at admission and a trigger
blocks changes. It has no project foreign key. `{}` is a known empty
set. Null means unknown. Only settled rows can have null. Migration
`0428` fills the set of unsettled `0426` rows from their charges,
because those charges are still complete. Settled `0426` rows stay
unknown.

**Alternatives considered**

- Keep charge rows after settlement with a `released_at` column and a
partial active index. The project foreign key would then block project
deletion permanently, or the key must be removed from active charges.
One table would also hold two different facts.
- A separate history table with one row per project. This is more rows,
joins and constraints for data that is only read as a whole set by
admission ID.
- Encode the set in `context_revision`. That token is opaque and owned
by the context owner. The database cannot validate it.
- Use `heartbeat_runs.context_snapshot`. It is mutable and is per run,
not per admission attempt.

## What Changed

- Schema and migration `0428_retained_admitted_project_sets`: add
`admitted_project_ids`, a check (null only when settled, no null
elements, at most 100 entries) and an immutability trigger. The backfill
fills unsettled rows from their charges and leaves settled rows null.
The migration is safe to run again. Migration `0426` is not changed.
- `recordAdmission` writes the set. A replay compares against the stored
set. `settleAdmission` still deletes the whole charge set in one
transaction and does not change the stored set.
- Add `readAdmittedProjects` (company-scoped, by admission ID). It
returns `known` with the set, or `unknown`.
- Add a pure `retainedSessionProjects` rule: a retained session uses
previous ∪ current. An unknown previous set returns
`fresh_context_required`. No consumer uses it yet; C1b integrates
retained sessions.
- Update `doc/DATABASE.md` and `server/src/modules/README.md`.

Not changed: no public cap writes, no claim or dispatch integration, no
session integration, no provider activation, no `serialize` → cap 1
migration. Active counts still use only the indexed charge rows.

## Verification

Red, on unchanged `master` code, with the new tests:

- `server`: `npx vitest run
src/modules/execution-admission/adapters/postgres.test.ts`. The new
tests fail. With a temporary reader that uses the only storage `master`
has (charges), the settled A+B admission reads `[]` instead of `[A, B]`.
- `packages/db`: `npx vitest run
src/execution-admission-migration.test.ts` fails, because no `0428`
migration exists.

Green, with this change:

- `server`: `npx vitest run src/modules/execution-admission`: 27 passed.
The new PostgreSQL test covers: A+B admission → settlement → set still
readable, charges and counts zero, settlement replay keeps the set, a
second attempt with a different set, primaryless and empty sets, company
isolation, rollback, immutability, the check constraint, and deletion of
a project that has only settled history (its ID stays in the set). It
also checks that a project with an active charge still cannot be
deleted.
- `packages/db`: `npx vitest run
src/execution-admission-migration.test.ts`: 2 passed. The upgrade test
starts from the shipped `0426` schema with an unsettled A+B row, an
unsettled empty row and a settled row. After the upgrade the sets are
`[A, B]`, `{}` and null. A second run of `0428` changes nothing.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db typecheck` and `check:migrations`
passed. `node scripts/check-module-boundaries.mjs` passed.
- Not run locally: the server layered typecheck. The local process was
killed for memory (a 5.8 GiB limit shared with other jobs). CI runs it.

This PR does not prove C2 claim races or C3 lifecycle authority.

## Risks

- Migration: one `ADD COLUMN`, an `UPDATE` that only touches unsettled
rows (none in production, because nothing writes admissions yet), a
check and a trigger. It does not delete or rewrite data.
- Settled rows created before `0428` stay unknown. A future consumer
must start a fresh context for them. It must not treat them as empty or
primary-only.
- The stored set has no project foreign key. Company scope is checked at
admission time, under the same project locks and the charge foreign
keys.

Size: about 70 production lines (schema 8, migration SQL 22, adapter 28,
domain 15), 105 test lines and 24 doc lines. Generated metadata
(`0428_snapshot.json`, `_journal.json`, removal of `0422_snapshot.json`
by the standard pruning) is separate.

## Model Used

- Anthropic Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`) in Claude Code, with
tool use (shell, file edits, embedded PostgreSQL tests). Default context
window and reasoning mode.

DottaandPaperclip 451d06e2fc fix: resume interrupted Runner preparation and confirm failure report delivery (#18853)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for work.
> - The server owns run recovery and task continuation after a restart.
> - A shutdown can interrupt Runner preparation before any provider work starts.
> - Workspace recovery can save the files but leave that task behind a legacy execution hold.
> - Retry then accepts a request without starting a successor. Startup also leaves the task blocked.
> - This pull request verifies the interrupted preparation, preserves its files, and admits one bounded continuation.
> - It also keeps a dropped Sentry capture eligible for a later report.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A hosted task remained blocked after a graceful server shutdown interrupted Runner preparation. Its remote workspace was recovered. Retry returned an accepted request, but no successor started. Startup did not resume it. The task also had no matching Sentry event.

The recovery cause is verified. The exact cause of the missing historical Sentry event is unknown. A separate regression with the real Sentry SDK proves that processing backpressure can drop a capture while the task cache marks it as reported forever.

**Expected behavior**

Retry must continue eligible interrupted work from its saved workspace. Startup must schedule one bounded retry when durable evidence proves that no provider started. A later task read must be able to retry an unconfirmed Sentry report.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Interrupt Runner preparation during a server shutdown before native runtime selection.
2. Retain and recover its remote workspace under the legacy recovery hold.
3. Press Retry, or restart after file recovery has completed.
4. Observe that the task remains blocked without a successor.

For the reporting case, hold the first Sentry event in its asynchronous enrichment step. Fill the SDK processing buffer. Capture a second task failure, release the first event, and read the second failed task again later.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced against source commit `4d31588dea`. The hosted incident served `6ef37398c8d799c5142a3a6590ecc70ad352b663`.

**Deployment mode**

Hosted Linux server with remote workspaces and external PostgreSQL. Local regressions use the source checkout on macOS arm64, Node 26.4.0, PostgreSQL 17.10, and the audited optional Sentry SDK 10.71.0.

Related public changes: #18541 added task-state failure reports. #18678 retained remote exports before Retry. #18803 fenced remote workspace writers before continuation.

The small backend-port fixture correction follows #18739. It is included here because the same existing setup defect blocked CI.

## What Changed

- Verify pre-native shutdown interruption against the immutable adapter claim, controller ownership, run events, native records, stopped leases, and exact workspace recovery receipts.
- Retire only the server's unchanged bootstrap failure block. Admit explicit Retry through the existing continuation path.
- Discover completed workspace recovery at startup and schedule one retry under the existing failure budget. Let saved input own its continuation.
- Apply the existing safe replacement dispatch checks to preparation retries. A later human block, competing execution, dependency, pause, approval, or budget gate must still prevent dispatch.
- Keep execution evidence available through the bounded run projection.
- Confirm Sentry task-report delivery from a successful SDK HTTP response. Keep unconfirmed captures pending for 60 seconds before a later task read can retry them. Both caches remain bounded and start no timer.
- Document recovery and report delivery semantics.
- Align existing handoff/budget assertions with the guarded preparation retry reason. Keep the owned-runtime fixture outside reserved proxy ports, with bounded allocation attempts.

## Verification

- Red before the recovery fix: all three new Retry/startup cases failed because no successor was created. Green after the fix: all three passed with real saved workspace archives and PostgreSQL.
- The pre-merge revision passes all 384 tests in the six affected recovery, run-control, run-state, retry, and dispatch suites.
- The late-block regression failed before its repair. Its four focused recovery/dispatch cases then passed, including final dispatch cancellation.
- Review found a second stop check that still rejected verified local and lease-free preparation. Both new cases failed before that repair. All 17 interrupted-preparation regressions passed on the pre-merge revision.
- The Sentry regression failed with the real SDK before the fix. All 91 affected reporting tests then passed. The transport stays in memory. No test sends events to Sentry.
- Full repository typecheck passed with `node scripts/typecheck-low-memory.mjs`. The full `pnpm build` and module boundary check passed.
- CI found untyped delivery-hook parameters when the optional Sentry SDK was absent. Explicit callback types fix that build. The SDK-absent server build and all 91 SDK-present reporting tests pass.
- Server typecheck passes with the SDK installed and the real Sentry SDK contract CI job passes. Greptile reviewed the pre-merge commit `103e175c44` at 5/5 with no open findings.
- The local full-suite attempt initially overlapped the rebase and stopped at test-line selection. Its unchanged-head rerun passed the first 309-test chat shard. I stopped the old-head run before applying review fixes. Current-head CI owns the remaining full-suite verification.
- CI exposed two old retry-reason expectations. The handoff and retry-budget checks pass with the new guarded reason. A separate existing process-adoption fixture chose port 42953 in the reserved 42000–42999 proxy range. The fixture now rejects reserved ports, following #18739. Its real process/adoption/termination test passes locally.
- The final Runner package job [initially failed](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41718507919/job/126205912033) one unchanged Codex credential case after it could not acquire its port quorum, then timed out. The complete unchanged 42-case credential suite passes locally. One unchanged CI retry passed; the original competing port owner was not identified. No Runner implementation or credential test was changed.
- Required CI passes on `103e175c4490e1bdf804c64a8635b0e4568545ae`, including `ci / verify` and `ci / e2e`. That revision has Greptile 5/5 with no open findings. The optional Paperclip Review check on that earlier head remained queued, waiting for its assigned agent.
- Merged current `master` without replacing published commits. The retry gate retains both shutdown interruption checks and the new workspace preparation timeout policy. All 311 tests in the five combined recovery, retry scheduling, completion, and native startup suites passed after the conflict resolution. Server typecheck passed. Final head `005d380b00d45a2393c4a2a190eab27611168d3c` includes the next conflict-free master update. All 17 interrupted-preparation regressions passed again on that final head. Greptile reviewed that exact head at 5/5 with no new findings. Required CI passes on that exact head, including `ci / verify`, `ci / e2e`, typecheck, build, the full test shards, and the real Sentry SDK isolation check. The optional Paperclip Review remains queued, waiting for its assigned agent; it is not a required branch check.
- On the final head, six test jobs were cancelled after their spot runners received shutdown signals at the same time. Another server shard passed 2,419 tests, but its unchanged 103-record cleanup backlog case exceeded the 15-second limit. The unchanged full cleanup suite then passed all 29 tests locally. One unchanged retry of only the seven unsuccessful jobs passed. The [original cancellation and timeout logs](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41724898038/attempts/1) remain in the workflow history. No cleanup implementation or test was changed.
- The signed-in hosted UI reproduced the failed Retry before the fix. The fixed path is covered through the real HTTP Retry route and assembled heartbeat/recovery services. This PR has not been deployed to the hosted incident. A live repaired Retry remains unverified until rollout.

## Risks

- Automatic continuation must not repeat provider work. It requires positive preparation evidence and rejects retained provider, process-launch, coordinator, result, live-controller, unsafe lease, or mismatched workspace evidence.
- Repeated recovery calls must create one successor. Tests cover concurrent requests, repeated startup visits, pending Retry, retry exhaustion, and changed task ownership.
- Sentry delivery state stays local to the process. A restart or cache eviction can report a failure again. An unconfirmed event needs a later task read to retry.
- No schema or API contract changes are required.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex. This session does not expose a more specific deployment ID or context window size. Reasoning, code editing, test execution, and browser diagnostics assisted the change.

DottaandPaperclip 1f55073f96 fix(cursor-cloud): support API-only controllers on managed stacks (#18310)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip helps people manage AI agents at work.
> - Cursor Cloud hosts execution behind its API.
> - Product setup still expected a Paperclip Computer.
> - Managed-only tenants therefore rejected valid setup.
> - This admits the validated API-owned controller.
> - Authority, Stop proof, budgets and cleanup remain enforced.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18068 and #18069; both dependencies have merged.

**What happened?**

Managed-only setup still requested a Computer. Live tests exposed
missing Cursor Stop proof and duplicate replay.

**Expected behavior**

Use Cursor’s API controller. Verify provider/controller termination and
replay each log identity once.

**Steps to reproduce**

Enable native Runner/managed-only. Configure Cursor model/repository/key
without a Computer, then Test, finish setup, run and Stop.

## What Changed

- Derive API-only placement from validated native Cursor configuration;
reject placement/command/workspace/home overrides and keep
Kubernetes-only execution closed.
- Skip Computers/checkout/workspace realization. Keep scoped tools,
completion, private staging, budgets, leases and recovery. Persist
placement; reject contradictions.
- Align Cloud cards, Test, Save and Finish setup; hold unready drafts.
Legacy keeps its Computer, credential and policy checks.
- Verify Stop from exact API ownership, audited intent,
provider-terminal proof, no Computer/process ownership and controller
retirement. Recheck immediate/deferred retirement; wake existing
recovery on durable evidence.
- Clear warnings when the actual stopped target later has authoritative
confirmation. Keep missing/other-run negatives and the existing
predicate.
- Publish safe status refresh after full-proof ACK. Retain bounded
native/physical cancellation history; add no poller or weaker proof
path.

## Verification

Core merged as `3910352c923a`; Product merged as `27d35314be8e`. Public
branch `5f86eb66b081` has tree `67344151d303`. Its exact-head Greptile
summary is 5/5; the fresh audit found zero unresolved threads and
complete pagination. The controlled workspace retry and required summary
passed. All 59 current-head contexts are terminal and clean. Prior
green-36 evidence keeps its identity.

[Current
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41680511731)
first failed workspaces-a 1/2: the CLI company-import/export beforeAll
30-second runtime-info/child-PID/HTTP readiness wait expired. All 431 UI
files/4,714 tests and 285 other CLI tests passed (one skip). The cause
remains UNKNOWN. Child output records startup recovery complete, but
buffered CI prefixes do not establish its relation to the waiter
deadline; runtime-file/PID/last-health state was not captured. Both
unchanged local probes were RED. The second observed dependency
preflight still pending at the deadline; observer overhead was not
quantified. Neither proves the CI cause. After all functional jobs
finished, only the queued metadata summary was cancelled; the other 48
records stayed unchanged. Attempt 1 retains 46 successes, the original
failure, one skip and the cancelled summary. One same-head debug retry
was admitted at 18:42 UTC on November 3. Its workspace job passed at
19:23 UTC on the same checkout: UI 431 files/4,714 tests and CLI 33
files/286 tests, including company import/export. Test caching was
disabled. The new `ci / verify` summary passed; workflow attempt 2
completed SUCCESS. Required `ci / e2e` also passed. The final check at
19:53 UTC on November 3 found all 59 current-head contexts terminal and
clean: zero pending and zero failing. The 47 inherited completed/skipped
rows are not new executions. No code, assertion or timeout changed;
success does not explain the original failure or erase the local REDs.

CI checkout is `1ea9d8608ced`/tree `78cb1ec13d59` (parents
`2e37c73c05fe`, 5f86); both workflows use 2e37. Its 20 extra paths add
low-memory build/Rust task-memory. Scripts cohere; later matrix changes
only labels, with no newer debug-cache steps. Static audit found no
blocker. Supported API arguments omit the memory flag: no default
monitor/instruction changes. Flagged external launchers can change
Cursor instructions/digests and remain unqualified.

The merge added 41 master-identical paths, retained the green-36 inbox
hunk and found UI fixtures matching upstream. Startup/backup, recovery
projection, sleep diagnostics and binary backup change production.
Static audit found eight Stop/ACK owner blobs and 37 sleep-work SQL
templates unchanged, with sleep fences/single-flight accounting intact.
Exact precommit tree: 416/416 across eight server files, binary backup
1/1, server types PASS; repeated scopes are not summed.

The deferred-retirement P1 reproduced three real-DB/owned-process
failures; missing proof stayed unverified. Recovery passed 47 process
cases/33 proof negatives. Warning repair binds actual targets to
same-run proof. Validation passed 729 scoped UI cases, a separate
359-case thread run, 111 backend cases (84 CAS, 6 assembled, 21
activity/privacy), types/tokens. Proof validators/predicate are
unchanged; no new poller or increased timeout.

The d8d3 attempt stays FAILED: 45 passes, two workspaces-a failures,
derived verify failure and one skip. Both shards shared three failures:
two successful mocks omitted the account guard’s required userId. The
two-line fixture repair changed no guard, assertion or timeout. Three
failures reproduced; 54 access/auth tests then passed, including
account-change/denial negatives, plus UI types/tokens.

The 69285 attempt stays FAILED: 49 jobs, 46 passed, serialized shard 9
failed, its verify aggregate failed and one selection job skipped. The
shard passed 575/576 cases. Its aborted-snapshot case expected nine
computes but saw eight: a final HTTP 200 coalesced while seven ordinary
reads had not proved the aborted compute settled. Earlier CI and the
unmodified local baseline passed with a miss; no local RED is claimed.
The repair awaits the snapshot, allows exactly one extra GET if
coalesced, then requires a miss and retains nine computes/all HTTP429
assertions. No production code, hook, loop, sleep or timeout changed.
Six inbox and seven cache/admission cases passed locally, plus server
types; 30 unrelated cases were filtered. Green 36 passed 576/576 without
taking the extra-GET branch; local runs also missed that schedule.
Current CI event merge 1ea9 now passed 576/576 and naturally exercised
the former failure: coalesced (count 2, 1ms), then exactly one fresh
miss (count 1, 16ms), with strict nine-compute/HTTP429 assertions
intact. No instrumentation or retry was added.

Earlier compatibility passed scoped remote/inbox, routine, API-placement
and UI tests, plus types/migrations/snapshots/maps/tokens. The 89-path
adoption restored fleet routing without workflow overrides or added
skips. Each result retains its source identity.

Live qualification remains actual `9af1a5de42a2`: unchanged Artifact
grader PASSED 17/17 and active-Stop grader PASSED 21/21. All three
provider test resources were deleted canonically with GET404;
post-delete download returned the exact 27 bytes. Histories stayed
stable (Artifact 121 and Stop 67 canonical identities), with 21 company
runs, zero active work and no accounting/cancellation/reservation debt
or integrity findings. Saved settings reopened; no-prompt Test/Linux
admission passed with `claude-sonnet-4-5`. No new Save is claimed.

The first Stop sampling case stays FAILED on a 10.373-second gap.
Unchanged retry kept all 24 samples: 35.076 seconds quiet, maximum gap
4.584 seconds, plus a separate CANCELLED/artifact-absent read after 180
seconds. Initial grading rejected locator spelling before functional
checks; metadata changed only after same-file/inode/byte proof, with raw
evidence/oracles unchanged. Original Question/Plan/reconnect and
historical deleted-artifact results keep their identities.

Git trees verified 11 history-only conflicts and six earlier mainline
paths. Hosted 9af to the public BRANCH differs in 222 paths; 13,500
other mode/blob leaves match. Runner runtime implementations and six
observer/driver pins match 9af on that branch only; inherited
`drivers/acpx/runtime-host.test.ts` differs. No all-Runner/src,
CI/latest-master runtime or image equality is claimed. Later static
audits through `8ab89f41e499` found no concrete API-only blocker. That
base adds completed-history sleep proofs and an MCP cleanup migration;
protected Stop/ACK owners are unchanged. These later changes are outside
this CI and have no live qualification here. Host duplicate-card and
later recovery/UI repairs retain separate proof, not deployed 9af
identity. Direct-key coverage requires absent aiConnection; API-only
placement skips inherited remote-workspace disk-full paths, and
config-read gates match their parent.

Other retained failures: stale fixture 132/133; E8 48/135 with 87
reset-hook failures; Mac 17 SQL failures/skips;
title/startup/custody/Stop/deletion unknown causes and bounded
recoveries; superseded warning/50 duplicate identities; pre-repair
ACK/Core CI failures. Fixture RED/GREEN passed 7/7 browser and 121/121
shutdown tests with a failing broken-unsubscribe control; stable WSP
wrapper passed 128 after physical teardown failure. No full local-suite
pass is inferred. All paid attempts remain recorded; vendor dollar cost
is UNKNOWN.

## Risks

Experimental: Cursor independently acknowledges neither the effective
model nor instruction digest before the first prompt. Explicit values
are submitted and behavior checked live; unpriced provider dollar cost
stays UNKNOWN.

The placement exception applies only to validated native Cursor API
execution. Other local work remains denied under managed-only policy.
Missing/stale Stop or cleanup proof stays pending; damaged archives
remain failed. Explicit Legacy keeps its existing policy owners.

review. API ID/context window unavailable.

fef86e32e9 feat(execution-admission): add project concurrency policy and admission storage (#18746)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Projects group tasks. Agents run tasks as heartbeat runs.
> - Today, workspace mode and shared-workspace flags decide whether
tasks run at the same time. A project cannot set its own limit on
concurrent task executions.
> - A correct project limit must count every project that a task uses,
including @-mentioned projects. It must also keep the count when a
project is archived or deleted, and when a run is admitted more than one
time.
> - This change cannot go into one pull request with claims and
settlement. Thus this pull request adds only the policy semantics and
the durable accounting storage that later claims will use.
> - This pull request adds a new `execution-admission` module, three
tables and the deletion guards. No route writes a cap and no claim path
enforces it.
> - The benefit is a tested storage contract (constraints, idempotency,
rollback, indexed counts, lifecycle preservation) before any behavior
changes.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #2831, Refs #14333 (related agent-level and adapter-level limits;
not duplicates).

**Subsystem affected**

Server execution admission (new module
`server/src/modules/execution-admission/`) and the `packages/db` schema.

**Problem or motivation**

A project cannot limit how many of its task executions are active. The
current shared-workspace flags mix resource safety with capacity. A
future project limit needs storage that records each admission attempt
and every project that the attempt charges. Run IDs cannot be the
identity, because a run can be released before dispatch and admitted
again.

**Proposed solution**

Add a separate policy table that keeps "never configured" apart from
"explicit no limit". Add admission epochs with one charge row per
distinct project. Settlement deletes the charge set in one transaction.
Later pull requests integrate claims, settlement, waits and the public
control.

**Alternatives considered**

Columns on `projects` would leak an unenforced cap through every project
reader. A project column or a `uuid[]` on `heartbeat_runs` cannot
enforce per-project uniqueness or company scope. `budget_reservations`
has no project set. A counter would be a second source of truth.

## What Changed

- Added `project_task_execution_policies`. No row means never
configured. A null maximum means an explicit "no limit". A check accepts
only positive maximums. A composite foreign key keeps the project and
company together. The row is deleted with its project.
- Added `execution_admissions`. Each row is one admission attempt of a
run: `(run_id, attempt)` is unique, and a partial unique index allows
one unsettled attempt per run. It keeps the context revision, the
nullable primary project (provenance, no foreign key) and the settlement
identity. A check sets `settlement_id` and `settled_at` together.
- Added `execution_admission_project_charges`. It has one row per
distinct admitted project, unlimited projects included. Composite
foreign keys keep the admission and the project in one company. The
project foreign key has no cascade, so a charge cannot disappear with
its project. `(company_id, project_id)` is indexed for active counts.
- Added migration `0426_absent_guardian.sql` (renumbered from `0423`,
then `0425`, as master added `0423`–`0425`). The generated SQL was
reordered so the unique indexes exist before the composite foreign keys
that need them. Snapshots `0419` and `0420` were pruned to keep five
snapshots.
- Added the `execution-admission` module (domain → application →
adapters):
- Domain: policy patch parsing and application (omitted keeps, null
clears, partial updates keep other fields, malformed values are
rejected), canonical project-set preparation (primary ∪ references,
deduplicated, ascending, bounded with an explicit `too_many_projects`
result), and the settlement replay decision.
- Application: internal `readTaskExecutionPolicy` and
`updateTaskExecutionPolicy` commands. No route, tool, CLI or import
calls them.
- Adapter: the project-set lock (`FOR NO KEY UPDATE`, ascending, one
statement), the policy store, and the storage transitions
`recordAdmission`, `settleAdmission` and `countActiveProjectCharges`.
These transitions are not exported from the module entry point. Claims
(later) must add the capacity check and the lifecycle evidence.
- Project deletion returns `409 project_execution_admission_pending`
while the project has a charge. Agent deletion returns `409
agent_execution_admission_pending` while its runs have an unsettled
admission, and removes settled history. Company deletion calls a new
module participant before it deletes runs and projects.
- Documented the tables, the lifecycle rules and the proposed global
lock order in `doc/DATABASE.md`. Added module ownership to
`server/src/modules/README.md`.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run src/modules/execution-admission` → 2
files, 26 tests pass (the Greptile finding on an empty primary ID added
an assertion to an existing test). The adapter tests use embedded
PostgreSQL and cover:
  - policy semantics, the maximum check and the company foreign key;
- charges for every distinct project, a primaryless set and an empty set
(no rows);
- replay of one admission ID, conflict on a changed record, refusal of a
second live attempt and the partial unique index;
- settlement of the whole set once, replay, a different settlement, then
attempt 2 for the same run;
- company isolation of projects, runs and admission IDs, the
duplicate-charge key, and rollback of an aborted transaction;
- active counts per project, and an `EXPLAIN` that uses
`execution_admission_project_charges_project_idx`;
- archive keeps charges, `projectService.remove` returns 409, a direct
project delete fails on the foreign key, and delete succeeds after
settlement;
- `deleteAgentDependencies` returns 409 while unsettled, and
`deleteCompany` removes only that company's admissions.
- `cd packages/db && npx vitest run
src/execution-admission-migration.test.ts` → pass. It removes the new
tables and receipt, seeds a legacy project and run, applies pending
migrations, and compares the existing rows.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db check:migrations` → pass. Five
snapshots remain (`0421`, `0422`, `0424`, `0425`, `0426`; `0423` is
SQL-only on master).
- `node scripts/check-module-boundaries.mjs` → pass.
- `packages/db` `tsc --noEmit` → pass. A scoped `tsc` of the module
entry points and domain tests → pass.
- Existing tests for the changed deletion services → 6 files, 161 tests
pass (`resource-lifecycle-events`, `prompt-injection-prevention`,
`agent-lifecycle/lifecycle`, `case-deletion`,
`project-workspace-root-provenance`, `companies-service`).
- Not run locally: the full `server` typecheck. `tsc` and `tsgo` were
stopped by the out-of-memory killer on the 7 GB machine (exit 137, also
single-threaded). The full `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm test:run` and
`pnpm build` were not run locally; CI ran them on head `520b69d553`: all
gates pass, including Typecheck, Build and the 12 server test shards.
After merging master (`1c9ca5829f`) into head `c088729361`, the
migration check, migration upgrade test, module tests, module-boundary
check and `packages/db` typecheck were rerun locally and pass; CI is
rerunning the full suite.

## Risks

- Migration risk is low. It creates three empty tables and indexes. It
does not change existing tables or rows.
- Behavior changes only when admission rows exist. Nothing writes them
yet, so project, agent and company deletion behave as before.
- Later claim work must take the project-set lock in the documented
order. A claim that takes project locks after issue locks could deadlock
with project deletion.
- Settlement deletes charge rows, so a settled admission keeps its
primary project and context revision but not its full project set.

DottaandPaperclip 86b365f992 feat(auth): add independent agent configuration read permission (#18766)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents need to inspect configuration and instructions when they set
up teammates.
> - Configuration reads currently depend on configure or suggestion
grants.
> - Legacy standard agents did not receive those newer grants. Some
self-read routes also lose the target agent identity.
> - This pull request adds an independent read grant and applies only
that grant to eligible existing agents.
> - The benefit is that agents can inspect and verify configuration
without new write authority.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15283. Related earlier proposals: #8064 and #12050. Those
proposals target older authorization code; this change uses the current
configure/suggest model and adds a read-only rollout for existing
agents. Related bounded peer metadata proposal: #14160.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Agent configuration, configured skill, instruction, and revision reads
through the existing APIs and native instruction tools.

**Current behavior**

An agent needs `agents:configure` or `agents:suggest-changes` to inspect
a peer. Older standard agents can hire a teammate but cannot verify the
saved instructions. Configuration and revision routes also reject
self-reads because they authorize a company resource instead of the
target agent.

**Proposed behavior**

Add `agents:read` for redacted configuration and instruction reads. Keep
`agents:configure` as read/write and preserve suggestion-grant
compatibility. Standard new agents receive the read grant. A one-time
migration grants only reads to eligible existing standard agents.
Individual routes authorize the target agent and grant scope.

**Reason and benefit**

Read access can be granted without configuration changes, rollback, or
environment probes. Legacy agents can verify teammates without receiving
new write permissions.

## What Changed

- Add `agents:read` to the shared permission contract and standard-agent
defaults.
- Accept read, configure, or suggestion grants for configuration reads,
with target scope and the responsible-user ceiling.
- Fix target-aware self and scoped configuration, skill, and revision
reads.
- Add an audited data migration. Skip low-trust, built-in, inactive,
pending, terminated, setup, and scoped configuration/suggestion cases.
Preserve existing read scopes and later revocation.
- Update the specifications, default-permission documentation, and agent
access map.

## Verification

- Focused acceptance: 276 tests passed across seven suites on commit
`a37314df88`: authorization, real-key HTTP access, route authorization,
canonical instructions, default grants, migration replay, and lifecycle
configuration.
- The HTTP journey uses a real hashed agent API key and a disposable
PostgreSQL database. It verifies redaction, scoped reads, denied edits
and rollback, cross-company isolation, and both agent and
responsible-user revocation.
- New read-grant regressions failed before the authorization change. A
realistic paused/pausing/resuming migration fixture also failed before
the lifecycle filter correction and passed afterward. Setup-held paused
agents stay excluded.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed on the rebased branch; the
final lifecycle migration correction also passed the database package
typecheck and build. The latest commit changes only a test assertion.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db check:migrations`, `node
scripts/check-maps.mjs`, and `git diff --check` passed.
- Full current-head [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41641531426)
passed: typecheck, build, all general and serialized test lanes, Runner
checks, all eight browser shards, canary dry run, policy, and aggregate
gates. The local full-suite attempt was stopped after exposing the
outdated cross-company 403 assertion; interrupted local full-suite
attempts are not counted as passes.

## Risks

The migration deliberately expands redacted configuration and
instruction visibility for eligible existing standard agents in the same
company. An absent older write grant does not deny the new read
capability. It adds no write grant. Scoped configure/suggestion grants
and all existing read-grant scopes stay intact. Administrators can
remove the independent read grant after the one-time rollout; ordinary
updates and startup do not restore it. Configure and suggestion grants
still imply reads within their own scopes. Cross-company
configuration/history reads now return 404 through the common
target-aware helper. No schema change or credential-value disclosure is
added.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository tools, and code
execution. The host does not expose a more specific runtime model ID or
context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip 16643a6e03 fix(runner): recover pending Stop cleanup after controller restart (#18682)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The server owns execution, Stop delivery, and usage settlement.
> - A Stop can remain pending when the controller restarts.
> - Recovery must reach the existing session without starting more paid
work.
> - Startup and budget fences currently block that cleanup, and
interrupted runs leave the restart selection.
> - This pull request gives exact audited Stop cleanup a shared
authority check and records its real acknowledgement.
> - The benefit is safe cleanup while usage debt remains honest.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A pending native run-only Stop can retain an unfinished execution owner
after controller loss. Its startup cancellation fence prevents recovery
admission. If teardown marks the run interrupted and clears its task
lock, restart selection also omits it. A recovered session can receive
cancellation without the durable acknowledgement that the normal Stop
request would save.

**Expected behavior**

Recover only the existing remote session for the audited pending Stop.
Keep fresh provider work blocked, including during budget pause. Keep
incomplete usage pending until a real complete receipt arrives.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a native run with a held reservation and an authenticated
remote checkpoint.
2. Persist a run-only Stop and its startup and execution cancellation
fences before acknowledgement.
3. Lose the controller. Leave the coordinator unfinished, mark the run
interrupted, and clear its task lock.
4. Attempt restart recovery and observe the missing claim or
cancellation admission rejection.

Related work: #14733 binds caller Stop requests. #18658 handles plugin
startup cleanup obligations. #18035 proposes broader accounting changes.
This change repairs existing-session Stop recovery and preserves current
accounting guards.

## What Changed

- Add one shared check for the exact run, company, issue, pending Stop,
intent audit, live recovery lease, generation, and remote reattachment
disposition.
- Include eligible interrupted Stop owners in restart selection. Keep
generic interruptions and another task execution owner fenced.
- Reuse only the original held reservation for cleanup. Keep budget
pause effective for fresh, bootstrap, dead-runner, and unproven recovery
work.
- Apply the same cleanup authority at heartbeat runtime selection and
native entry. Skip attachment staging and warm-owner retirement only for
that exact cleanup. Revalidate at session publication and fail closed if
the proof changed.
- Send the existing Stop through the audited cancellation producer
before turn submission. Close the coordinator only after
acknowledgement, including system-owned run-only Stops.
- Give verified cleanup a transport purpose that retains pending
semantic inputs without replay, dispatch, or a semantic reply. Add an
explicit Core retain-only intake mode; preserve authenticated identity,
schema, digest, sequence and replay checks. Ordinary execution still
requires its dispatcher.
- Add PostgreSQL, native protocol, and startup-fence regressions. Update
the execution contract and recovery maps.

## Verification

- The combined Stop regression fails on unchanged production at the
cancellation reservation guard. Interrupted restart selection also fails
before the repair while its running sibling passes.
- An assembled `heartbeatService.recoverNativeRunsAfterRestart`
regression exposes the earlier runtime-selection fence with the rest of
the repair present. The fixed path reaches selector/claim, runtime
selection, original held-budget reuse during pause, dispatch, real
native protocol, audited cancellation, and heartbeat settlement. It
starts no provider turn, acquires no new sandbox, and does not reclaim
the task lock.
- Fail-if-called attachment staging and turn boundaries remain
untouched. A retained warm-owner regression prevents retirement.
Invalidation at session publication fails closed. Actual backend/driver
constructor tests verify cleanup-purpose forwarding, absent default
options, and denial under foreign ownership.
- Missing usage retains accounting debt and the hold. A later complete
receipt records one 25-cent charge and settles that same hold.
Concurrent duplicate cleanup is denied. Both user-owned and system-owned
Stops pass.
- Real transport tests: 9 pass on Node 24.22.1. They preserve ordinary
saved-tool and completion recovery, prove the authority-denial race
before cancellation, and qualify cleanup with pending
ordinary/completion inputs and either handler ordering.
- Real authenticated Core intake: 11 pass. Callback-present and
callback-absent retain-only cases persist and acknowledge unanswered
input without dispatch, recovery or result. Default missing-dispatcher
rejection and digest-integrity/suspension guards remain effective.
Omitting the callback alone first failed by disconnecting; the explicit
retain-only mode fixes that defect.
- Repository `pnpm -r typecheck`, the server/runner-vendor build, map
checks, and module boundary checks passed locally before integrating the
latest retained-startup change. That integration passes 11 native
startup/cleanup compatibility cases and 3 assembled recovery/accounting
cases. The final broad affected-suite attempt was stopped without a
verdict; it is incomplete. Full repository tests and build are delegated
to current-head GitHub CI.
- Review exposed an additional real-process close failure with
unanswered input. The corrected path requires a fresh exact
provider-stop receipt confirming exit, followed by durable event drain
and exact runner suspension. All 11 focused transport cases pass,
including missing/false exit-proof negatives and ordinary recovery
siblings. Runner TypeScript and map validation pass after this
correction.
- The assembled test controls provider, workspace-transfer and GitHub
bootstrap I/O. It does not qualify hosted credentials, physical provider
termination, workspace preservation, or historical receipt recovery.
Local socket-permission setup failures are separate from semantic
regression results. No hosted replay has run on this repair.

- CI exposed an ordinary factory-call compatibility regression and an
obsolete authority-read test fixture. The repair preserves
single-argument ordinary calls and updates the race fixture without
changing its Stop assertions. The complete native executor suite now
passes all 1,049 tests; the ordinary factory boundary and all five
Stop-accounting cases pass. A separate local environment-default case
twice exceeded its five-second wait while other work ran; its prior-head
CI case passed. The same unchanged case passed an isolated diagnostic
without changing its assertion or timeout; the precise contention source
remains unproven.

- The final fixture edit initially used the wrong overloaded promise
type. CI rejected it; the annotation-only correction passes the exact
`pnpm run typecheck:build-gaps` entry point locally, including server
service tests and remaining workspaces. No runtime assertion changed.

- Final exact head `007fd4d04a2d6338c6dc073e97ab470a277fc3d0`: required
`ci / verify` and `ci / e2e`, build, typecheck and test groups pass.
Greptile is 5/5 with both findings resolved. Three expected checks are
skipped; the optional native check is neutral, while its final
current-head comment gives 5/5 from source inspection without a checkout
or test execution. The first server-shard attempt lost its self-hosted
runner connection; one scoped rerun passed. Its original annotation and
unavailable-log evidence are retained.

## Risks

- This changes execution authority. Cleanup requires an audited, exactly
bound pending Stop, an unfinished coordinator, a live remote
reattachment claim, and the original held reservation. It never
authorizes a replacement provider turn.
- Missing checkpoint, original held reservation, termination, or usage
evidence can keep cleanup or accounting pending. The repair does not
manufacture acknowledgement, replies, receipts, or zero cost.
- Retain-only intake is an internal trusted constructor option. It
changes no agent tool permission. Ordinary callback requirements and
semantic dispatch remain unchanged.
- No schema, public API, provider profile, or deployment setting changes
are required.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, `gpt-6.1-sol`, Extra High reasoning, with source
inspection, code execution, and regression testing. The context-window
capacity is not exposed in this session.

commitperclip[bot] fd0d61b8e3 fix: Compare native finaliser lease expiry at millisecond precision when releasing an expired owner (#17214)
> [!NOTE]
> Opened by Prospector's automated issue-fix pipeline. A maintainer
reviews and decides; nothing here merges on its own.

## Thinking Path

- Issue #16715 reports a defect in paperclipai/paperclip.
- Root cause, as the fixing agent read it: Lease renewal writes
'lease_expires_at' from the database clock ('now() + interval'), so the
stored value has microseconds. 'agentExecutionsHaveStopped' reads that
value into a millisecond JS 'Date' and then releases the row with an
exact 'eq' on it. The update never matches, so the stop check returns
false on every tick and the agent stays in 'pausing'.
- This pull request: Compare native finaliser lease expiry at
millisecond precision when releasing an expired owner

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/agent-execution-stop.ts`: The release update now
truncates the stored lease expiry to milliseconds before comparing it
with the value it read, using the same 'date_trunc('milliseconds', ...)
= ...::timestamptz' pattern as 'chat-channels/activity.ts'. The other
guards stay the same: owner, generation, phase and the null result. This
was the only exact-match comparison on a lease expiry in 'server/src'.

## Verification

- Reproducing test(s), added in this PR:
`server/src/modules/agent-lifecycle/__tests__/lifecycle.test.ts`
- They fail on the base commit and pass with the fix, each twice in a
fresh sandbox.
- 3 independent attempts wrote 3 reproductions; this fix passes every
one of them.
- The repository's compile command passes with the fix applied.
- The full test suite passes except for the 10 file(s) that already fail
on the base commit.

## Risks

- Written by an automated pipeline, not a person: review it as you would
an outside contribution.
- Risk tier of the touched paths: 2.
- The scope reviewer found it also changes, beyond the report:
agentExecutionsHaveStopped for an expired finaliser row whose
lease_expires_at is already millisecond-precise (written from a JS Date)
- The scope reviewer found it also changes, beyond the report: Finaliser
row whose lease was renewed or taken over between the select and the
update
- The scope reviewer found it also changes, beyond the report: Rows with
null leaseExpiresAt

## Model Used

- codex:gpt-6.1-sol, opus, sonnet (Anthropic Claude, via Claude Code;
OpenAI, via the Codex CLI), writing and checking the change in an
isolated sandbox.
- opus (Anthropic Claude, via Claude Code), reviewing it independently.

DottaandPaperclip a92f616cd0 fix(db): attribute bounded captures to execution owners (#18634)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agent work through shared server and database
services.
> - High query volume can spend main-thread time on SQL construction and
result decoding.
> - The existing bounded response capture counts rows and bytes, but it
cannot name the operation that executed a query.
> - Bundled callers can be missing, and measuring every parsed JSON
value adds work to the diagnostic.
> - This pull request carries a semantic execution owner into each
measured query and bounds response sizing.
> - Operators can rank query volume by owner before choosing a
performance fix.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17504, #17522, #17537, #17564.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The opt-in `PAPERCLIP_DB_RESPONSE_CAPTURE_WINDOW` diagnostic.

**Subsystem affected**

Database diagnostics and existing server execution boundaries.

**Current behavior**

The capture groups by table, operation, and builder caller. It cannot
distinguish execution owners that reuse a prepared query. Bundled
deployments need source maps for caller locations. The capture visits
every returned value and serializes parsed JSON again to estimate its
size.

**Proposed behavior**

Version 2 captures use fixed semantic owners for HTTP requests, delivery
queues, execution phases, and budget work. They count completed calls,
returned rows, errors, and completion wall time. They sample successful
results 1, 17, 33, and so on, with fixed cell and string/byte limits.
Complex values remain explicitly unmeasured. Semantic ownership works
without source maps.

**Reason and benefit**

A short census can identify which operations issue the most queries or
return the most rows. It preserves each query's execution owner through
pooled connections, concurrent operations, and prepared-query reuse. It
reduces diagnostic work without claiming per-query CPU attribution.

**Breaking changes**

Opt-in capture output moves from `entry.v1`/`summary.v1` to
`entry.v2`/`summary.v2`. Sampled primitive byte lower bounds replace
all-result byte estimates. Consumers must use the new fields and must
not extrapolate them into a total. There is no database migration or
application API change.

## What Changed

- Added `withDatabaseOperation(owner, action)` to the DB package. The
server owns semantic labels. Queries retain execution ownership in their
completion closure.
- Added fixed owners at existing HTTP, delivery, budget, and execution
timing boundaries. Delivery work replaces the context of the producer
that woke it.
- Added complete call/row/error counters and completion wall durations
within the existing bounded window. Durations include waits and are not
CPU measurements.
- Sampled and bounded primitive-value sizing. Complex and oversized
values remain unmeasured. Known owners skip repeated stack extraction.
- Preserved the deadline, group limit, paced output, query outcomes, and
existing coverage exclusions. Updated the operator documentation.
- Added real PostgreSQL owner-isolation and prepared-query tests, server
scope tests, and plain bundled-runtime proof.
- Moved projection-test and benchmark full-response sizing into an
explicit test helper. Existing payload-size thresholds remain unchanged;
these synthetic checks do not use the production sampler.

## Verification

- Final-commit DB capture suites: 43 tests passed in 13.86 seconds
against the actual PostgreSQL driver, including concurrent owners,
prepared reuse, transaction failure, a dedicated client, sampling, and a
query crossing the deadline. DB typecheck passed.
- Server attribution and existing delivery/execution/budget suites: 53
tests passed. Final concurrent HTTP GET/JSON POST scope refinement: 5
tests passed.
- Runtime bundle suite: 8 existing tests passed. The new no-source-map
owner test passed after its fixture was corrected to use a driver
thenable. An ordinary native Promise can bypass an overridden `.then`;
the real PostgreSQL tests separately cover driver integration.
- Observer-only experiment: three alternating pairs per case on Node
24.22.2, macOS arm64, 3,000 calls per run after warm-up. For an
already-materialized synthetic JSON result, median capture CPU fell from
82.37 to 1.87 microseconds/call. For a 100-row primitive result, it fell
from 8.10 to 4.40 microseconds/call. Every result retained identity and
all calls were counted. The new diagnostic intentionally measures less
byte data; these are observer costs, not database latency or a hosted
application speedup. Disabled-case timings were below one
microsecond/call and too small for a performance conclusion.
- Final lifecycle regression: 28 unit tests and DB typecheck passed.
Closing the last capture disables and replaces owner storage;
overlapping captures retain it.
- Final-commit full recursive typecheck passed in 38.38 seconds and full
build passed in 40.81 seconds. The build stamp matches
`83ed4ba9cebd68d48929c46f15ab32d5c0b9687b`. Focused server attribution
tests also passed 5/5 before the test-helper-only migration. Full test
acceptance will use the repository's parallel CI gates; the unsharded
local command takes hours.
- Verification failures retained: initial sandbox runs could not open
local IPC/PostgreSQL listeners; permitted reruns exercised the real
services. One old test expected JSON serialization and was updated to
assert explicit unmeasured complex values. The first bundle fixture used
the wrong promise boundary, as described above. A retained-callback
regression also demonstrated that disabling and reusing the same
AsyncLocalStorage instance could resurrect an old owner; replacing the
instance after the last capture closes fixes that case.
- The first CI run found older projection tests consuming the previous
full-response fields. Those consumers now use the full-response test
helper, preserving their byte thresholds. The two complete affected
route suites plus helper tests passed 115/115 in 73.08 seconds. A
temporary full-row query negative control then failed the unchanged
2,048-byte limit at 5,000,812 bytes and was restored; five other service
suites passed 34/34 and the affected chat cases passed 3/3. All three
previously failing CI shards passed on the corrected head. A local
skill-list benchmark smoke check completed 255 captured queries with no
in-flight queries or overflow; this was integration verification under
concurrent test load, not a timing benchmark.
- Two final-head runner jobs lost communication with GitHub before
reporting a test result. One targeted retry of those jobs and their
dependent aggregate passed. All 53 final-head checks passed, with 3
intentional skips; previously passing suites were preserved.
- Hosted capture remains pending until the reviewed revision is deployed
and a bounded window is explicitly configured.

Reproduce the focused checks with Node 24 and the repository pnpm
version:

```sh
pnpm exec vitest run packages/db/src/response-capture.test.ts packages/db/src/response-capture-postgres.test.ts
pnpm --dir server exec vitest run --config vitest.config.ts src/__tests__/database-operation-attribution.test.ts scripts/bundle-runtime.test.mjs
pnpm -r typecheck
pnpm build
```

## Risks

- Owner context is active while a valid future capture window is armed,
up to 30 minutes before accounting starts. No-window and expired calls
take the direct path. Diagnostics still add bounded work while enabled.
- A nearest nested owner is reported. Broad `http.request` and
unattributed groups remain visible; this does not identify every service
callsite or SQL shape.
- The existing census excludes tagged/raw explicit-execute/streaming
paths and internal protocol commands. Its counts are not PostgreSQL
transaction totals.
- Completion wall time includes queue/database/network/scheduling waits.
Concurrent durations overlap. Sampled bytes exclude complex values,
large strings, and values beyond the sizing limits.
- Activation is startup-only. Operators must choose the window after
artifact preparation, allow rollout/warm-up time, and remove the expired
setting afterward.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with code execution, repository inspection,
and parallel agents. The exact deployment model ID and context-window
size are not exposed in this session.

ba07f85cad perf: schedule agent timers from durable deadlines (#17876)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/58/changes/paperclip/58
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agent timers must start due work and preserve queue admission rules.
> - The server woke their scan on every heartbeat interval, even with no
eligible timer.
> - Idle scans keep the database and instance active.
> - This pull request derives the next deadline from saved policy and
work records.
> - Supported producer transactions notify the shared coordinator when
eligibility changes.
> - An idle timer worker stops scanning and resumes when real work or a
deadline requires it.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17863. This is slice 63 of the recurring-work migration and
follows the merged issue-monitor deadline PR.

Related: #16632 changes timer issue scope; #16881 changes live-run
eligibility. This PR preserves the current admission policy. Those
policy changes are separate work. A future time-sensitive predicate must
expose its next transition deadline.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Agent timer heartbeat scheduling in the server.

**Current behavior**

A recurring heartbeat wakes the timer scan even when companies are
paused, timers are disabled, or no actionable task exists.

**Proposed behavior**

Register the earliest eligible interval or positive daily-cap reset
deadline. Re-read on supported producer commits and startup. Leave no
recurring database scan when no timer obligation remains.

## What Changed

- Keep policy and deadline calculation in the heartbeat queue.
Scheduling retains company, reporting-chain, worktree, and CAS gates.
- Use the existing deadline coordinator. Remove only the timer wake from
the server heartbeat loop.
- Notify before existing transaction writes that change eligibility or
deadlines. Cover configuration, lifecycle, company budgets, task
ownership, recovery, conversations, accounting corrections, and
completion.
- Use the lifecycle status-change hook for saved hire rejection. Cover
checkout's second adoption transaction after an initial failed CAS.
- Preserve pending work through idle and maintenance drains. Check
cancellation between due agents. Reconstruct on restart.
- Document the supported writer model and producer inventory. Add no
schema, table, or provider branch.

## Verification

- **1,710 passing cases across 49 complete files**, no skips, on
accepted source `32db86c1974dcbf794f01a8c5e42024e2ad071fc`. Coverage
includes real timer policy/CAS/producers, monitor and shared deadline
consumers, native reconstruction, Slack lifecycle,
skills/settings/configuration, queue isolation and agent lifecycle.
- Database build, production server typechecking/build, module
boundaries, target migration order and Runner profile identity pass.
Twenty-nine fresh PostgreSQL 17 schemas plus per-file fixtures applied
all 412 journal entries through index 413; all selected source hashes
and temporary fixture imports were restored exactly.
- Four new deadline composition cases verify future/overdue timing,
minimum scan spacing and disarming. A controlled mutation dropping only
the inherited continuation option fails; the composed source passes with
identical assertions and timers.
- Normal parent reconciliation preserves task-drain expiry and both
deadline contracts. The final monitor-parent publication changes only
its audit, preserving every qualified runtime and selected test source.
- Historical failures and review corrections remain in [the timer
audit](doc/idle-agent-timers.md). No full local repository-suite, live
provider, measured suspend/wake, external-alarm or fleet-savings claim.
Final-head CI/security, exact-head Greptile 5/5 and actionable Ponytail
findings remain separate merge gates.

## Risks

- Process-local notifications cover supported service/API writers in one
server process. Direct SQL and independent replicas need an explicit
ingress contract. Startup reconstruction is not live cross-process
notification.
- Notifications can batch for up to the configured heartbeat interval.
Known deadlines retain their scheduler path; failed reconciliation
retains bounded retry.
- Enabled timers without an actionable-work requirement remain real
recurring obligations. Zero caps require policy changes; positive
reached caps use UTC midnight.
- The timer fixture substitutes adapter enqueue. Existing admission
tests also pass, but this is not deployed provider or sleep
qualification.
- Cloud does not gain legacy agent timer alarms in this PR. Existing
sleep-safety blockers remain. No database/host suspension or fleet
savings claim is made.
- Parent-stack CI and review must pass before merge. This PR does not
authorize merging its dependencies.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex (GPT-6-based coding agent), using repository inspection,
normal Git merges, composition proofs, a controlled red/green regression
and complete PostgreSQL integration suites. No subagents were used in
this reconciliation.

0f6f0a3fee fix(server): schedule issue monitors without heartbeat polling (#17863)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/56/changes/paperclip/56
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Issue monitors save a future check on an existing issue.
> - The heartbeat timer still scans monitors on every tick, even when
none are due.
> - The saved deadline and claim already provide durable scheduling
state.
> - This pull request gives monitors their own deadline worker and
connects state changes to it.
> - Idle monitor work stops querying. Existing admission and recovery
rules remain in force.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17840, #16325. Related: #17171 addresses rearming a monitor after
its admitted run fails. This PR changes when monitor inspection runs and
follows the merged routine prerequisite.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Issue-monitor scheduling and idle database use.

**Current behavior**

Heartbeat ticks call the combined agent and monitor sweep. The existing
next-deadline query only retains future monitors. Polling covers overdue
leftovers, stale claims, and changes that make a saved monitor eligible.

**Proposed behavior**

Use the shared deadline worker. Retain overdue work with bounded
retries. Wake after committed changes to monitor state, issue
eligibility, company state, or native ownership. Keep legacy agent ticks
separate for the next slice.

## What Changed

- Add monitor-specific sweep and deadline methods to the existing
scheduling owner. Keep the manual combined method.
- Include overdue work and the strict five-minute claim fence. Exclude
active native owners until their state changes.
- Register monitors with the shared deadline worker. Heartbeat ticks
wake only the legacy agent timer worker.
- Connect direct issue-state writers and existing execution-control
notifications to monitor work. Checkout uses a short transaction around
its existing CAS. Provider work stays outside it.
- Add real database lifecycle tests and retain routine, startup,
admission, execution-control, and native-projection coverage.
- Record the obligation, producer inventory, recovery behavior, and
limits in `doc/plans/2026-10-27-issue-monitor-sleep-audit.md`.

## Verification

- **1,233 passing cases in 35 complete files**, no skips, on accepted
source `c24aadfc91e9394d73c799f9e05fc67202160557`. Coverage includes
real monitor scheduling/admission, native settlement, committed
producers, retained routines and all shared deadline consumer
integration suites.
- Database build, production server typechecking/build, module
boundaries, target migration order and Runner profile identity pass.
Twenty-four fresh PostgreSQL 17 schemas plus per-file fixtures applied
all 412 journal entries through index 413; every selected source hash
and temporary fixture import was restored exactly.
- Normal parent reconciliation preserves master's admitted-wake result
and scoped issue deletion while keeping committed monitor notifications.
All other paths match the automatic merge; packages remain byte-exact to
the qualified parent. The final routine-parent publication changes only
its audit.
- Historical failures and corrections remain in [the monitor
audit](doc/plans/2026-10-27-issue-monitor-sleep-audit.md). Old
delegated-Slack rate and Runner drain CI failures are retained; the
current inherited clock fixture and package source are byte-identical to
merged #17835. Fresh final-head CI remains required.
- No full local repository-suite, live provider, deployed suspend/wake,
external-alarm, production-load or fleet-savings claim. Final-head
CI/security, exact-head Greptile 5/5 and actionable Ponytail findings
remain separate merge gates.

## Risks

- A missing producer notification can strand a monitor after polling is
removed. The audit covers ordinary writes, direct status/assignment
writers, recovery, and native ownership changes.
- The writer model is process-local. Independent SQL writers and other
replicas need a supported notification or reconciliation contract.
- Overdue work uses the configured heartbeat interval as a retry floor
for the monitor worker. New notifications during that backoff wait for
its next pass. Normal state-change bursts coalesce for one second.
- Notification fanout can inspect monitors during other active work. An
unchanged idle subsystem has no recurring monitor scan.
- The legacy agent timer still polls. Cloud sleep proofs and external
alarm coverage are unchanged.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex (GPT-6-based coding agent), using repository inspection,
ordinary Git merges, composition proofs, PostgreSQL fixtures and
complete local integration suites. No subagents were used in this
reconciliation.

829f9e7eaf fix(server): settle Muse terminal assignments from committed changes (#17793)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/12/changes/paperclip/12
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Its external-agent module owns Muse assignments, operation receipts,
and worker holds.
> - Running assignments and retained terminal history must not cause an
empty maintenance scan every five seconds.
> - Terminal run changes and operation results already have durable
database transactions.
> - This pull request wakes the existing maintenance worker from those
commits and reconstructs work at startup.
> - The worker retries only concrete settlement debt. It retains
qualification deadlines and authority checks.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #17772. This is slice 57. Parent #17772 has merged.
Related: #17000, #17525, #17752, #17758. The publication targets master
and preserves the merged parent.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Muse terminal assignment settlement and the existing Muse maintenance
worker.

**Current behavior**

A running assignment can keep maintenance scanning every five seconds.
Terminal reconciliation rewrites unchanged history. Native finalization
also calls that reconciliation during periodic replay. Discovery
excludes a revoked original binding even when its assignment still needs
settlement.

**Proposed behavior**

Committed run changes and operation receipts wake the existing worker
with the original company, run or binding identity. Startup reconstructs
actionable work from existing rows. Maintenance processes bounded
batches and disarms after settlement. Default live and manual callbacks
remain. The periodic callback delegates this one duty.

**Reason and benefit**

Configured but idle instances stop querying for this obligation. Late
receipts, restarts, drain and historical bindings still have recovery
paths. No table or independent timer is added.

**Breaking changes**

No schema, endpoint or provider protocol changes. Explicit manual
reconciliation retains its unbounded default. This does not alter Cloud
sleep admission or claim that all instance work can sleep.

## What Changed

- Add an owner predicate shared by discovery and locked settlement.
Fenced private-worker uncertainty remains held without an automatic
retry loop.
- Preserve original binding generation and company/agent/run identity,
including revoked bindings. Fence only the terminal assignment during
reconciliation.
- Extend existing maintenance with scoped hints, bounded batches,
concrete-debt retry, startup reconstruction and quiet drain behavior.
- Register notifications inside existing terminal, projection,
cancellation, operation-result and send-failure transactions. Keep
qualification and OAuth signals explicitly global when coalesced with
scoped changes.
- Serialize only four domain IDs. Real native-finalizer tests caught and
prevent a circular-object serialization failure at this boundary.
- Use existing restore/worktree suppression and settings reactivation.
Delegate both periodic finalizer branches while retaining resource
callbacks and default live/manual settlement.
- Add the producer audit and regression evidence in
`doc/plans/2026-10-26-muse-terminal-settlement-sleep.md`.

## Verification

Accepted production source: `584015018ed4a9d57d2b0f192b75847503b54e53`.
Publication head: `305014b030d6c5eb891c70bc57036f4192d4fdad`. Normal
adoption of the actual parent squash preserves the complete accepted
child tree. Only audit text, a migration-count clarification, and the
proved Photon test extension follow.

- **3,715 distinct cases in 52 complete server files pass**, plus **20
selected chat cases** (3,735 selected total). The main 49-file batch
passes 3,008; process recovery passes 410; review response passes 273;
the full Photon file passes 24. The other 1,794 chat cases were not run
locally.
- **Quiet producer proof:** moving only the Muse fanout outside its
parent guard produces six candidate SELECTs and fails the regression.
Keeping the guard yields zero and still settles a real terminal run. The
same test hash spans the controlled red/green pair.
- **Photon review evidence:** repeated active callbacks produce zero
settlement hints/candidate SQL. Three concurrent attention recoveries
produce exactly one of each. The existing locked attention guard was
correct; production needed no fix. The parent security check accepted
the resolved finding before merge. This PR keeps the additional
settlement queue in the existing regression.
- **Static checks pass:** database build; server typecheck/build; module
boundaries; migration order; current Copilot identity. Packages equal
the accepted parent byte for byte. No new live provider qualification is
claimed.
- **Fixtures and failures:** 34 fresh PostgreSQL 17 fixtures have 412
applied migration receipts through tag 0413_tired_kronos, plus fresh
per-call helper fixtures. All 52 original test hashes restore exactly.
The additional Photon test hash matches its passing proof. Earlier
remote chat passive-idle failure remains recorded; both passive/missing
cases pass in the new selection. Parent handoff timeout/fresh-file-pass
accounting remains in its audit. No assertion or timeout was weakened.
- [Integration and quiet producer
audit](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/305014b030d6c5eb891c70bc57036f4192d4fdad/doc/plans/2026-10-26-muse-terminal-settlement-sleep.md#current-master-integration-and-quiet-producers-2026-10-29).
Fresh CI, security, and exact-head Greptile 5/5 must pass before merge.

<details><summary>Earlier revision verification and failure
history</summary>

Receiver failure fairness: a controlled 1,100 ms batch reproduced a
30-second delay for healthy due receivers. The worker now supplies its
existing per-item deadline through `nextRunAtOnError`. All 20 receiver
lifecycle tests pass on the owner and combined tip
`31c12f1d68ff4a51e06fc2be2abf2c2aee9f9d3a`; server production
typechecking passes on the owner. The failed receiver retains its own
backoff, and settled receivers return to zero recurring SQL. The
five-second assertion budget is unchanged. See [the owning
audit](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/f7477933469fdc960f555425dce66eff25a94e54/doc/plans/2026-10-25-chat-receiver-discovery-sleep-audit.md#healthy-receiver-progress-after-a-slow-failed-batch).
Current-head CI and review remain required.

Approved delegated Test-tab calls now evaluate caller and target
policies in the existing claim transaction. Real HTTP regressions first
showed a missing caller charge and shared-limit self-rejection. All 78
connection-management cases and 92 gateway cases now pass on the owning
branch, along with server production typechecking. All 78
connection-management cases also pass at combined tip
`d25f830db89c1623bff3547bfc68015c1c66e0cf`. The three new cases cover
shared charges, separate charges, rollback on denial, duplicate
approval, and rejection of a later authorized call. Intermediate

single-duty PR stacked on #17772.

- Integrated pinned master `8548173fc9efdc0fa07644fb92dcc0b6851a95e5`

stack migrations follow master’s new migration.
- Duty-specific producer coverage, lifecycle tests, and earlier failure
records:

- Combined tip `51e6cbe67979b55b340ea9f0f434c5b5c682ccd6`: **355
startup/cancellation/recovery/dispatch/preservation tests**, **75
connection-management tests**, and production server typechecking pass.
These combined checks do not mean every intermediate PR independently
ran the full repository suite.
- Real master-to-stack database upgrade passes: **379 unchanged prior
migration receipts plus 25 new migrations**, with the gateway
responsibility fixture preserved.

runner typechecking and generated TypeScript/Rust profile agreement; 253
GitHub review workflow cases. Stop-attribution and held-worker readiness
regressions failed before their fixes.
- Failure accounting: the initial combined run passed 349 cases and
failed six idle assertions in a reused preservation database containing
old cancelled runs. Repeating the combined command with a fresh

as passing checks.
- **Latest-head CI and review remain required.** Prior CI findings
include GitHub idle observation, route teardown, attention cleanup,
touch-picker E2E, workspace health, and voice-cleanup timing; local
passes do not erase those failures. No full local repository-suite,
deployed sleep, fleet cost, or live Copilot qualification claim is made.


</details>

## Risks

- In-process signals do not capture independent SQL or other replicas.
Supported external events still need ingress.
- Pending assignments and operation receipts retain their original
binding identity. A new agent configuration cannot take their ownership.
- Genuine qualification, OAuth, and recovery deadlines remain
obligations. They must not be discarded merely to make the worker quiet.
- The parent coarse-hint guard prevents recurring Muse discovery; real
company/binding authority changes retain their signals.
- No full local repository suite, full chat suite, live Muse or Copilot
qualification, deployed sleep, database suspension, external alarm
coverage, or cost savings is claimed. Existing Cloud blockers remain.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, code execution, real
PostgreSQL tests, and GitHub tools. The exact runtime model identifier
and context-window size are not exposed in this session.

4d0847c4ca fix(server): settle external conversations from committed work (#17772)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/6/changes/paperclip/6
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and the tasks that they execute.
> - External conversations must become idle after an authorized response
is published and all related work is complete.
> - Native replay and stranded-task recovery still discover this
settlement work through recurring scans.
> - A new deadline worker must preserve response ordering, monitor
handoffs, and unfinished work.
> - This pull request gives settlement one shared readiness predicate
and activates its worker from committed changes.
> - Existing rows provide recovery truth. No new table or per-feature
timer is added.
> - The benefit is a settlement worker that becomes quiet and resumes
when relevant work changes.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17758. This is slice 56. Slice 55 has merged. Related: #17606
(chat milestones), #17663 (bounded run reads), #17665 (monitor proof),
and #13809 (answered Slack conversation lifecycle). The provider
applicability remains Slack and Speko-owned conversations. This does not
extend Telegram settlement from #16559.

**What happened?**

Conversation settlement depended on periodic native replay and generic
task recovery. An exhausted monitor also cleared its schedule before
recovery admission. During that gap, an answered conversation could look
finished. Failed or deferred admission lost the monitor schedule.

**Expected behavior**

Relevant committed changes activate settlement. The worker uses the
owning service's evidence and becomes quiet when no settlement is owed.
Monitor recovery stays pending until admission, and restart does not
admit an already accepted recovery twice.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create an active external conversation with a successful run and an
authorized published response.
2. Keep execution, approval, a goal, or a monitor pending. Let the
settlement worker become quiet.
3. Resolve that prerequisite through its owning service. Verify that the
conversation settles without another periodic sweep.
4. Delay or fail exhausted-monitor recovery admission. Verify that the
monitor remains pending and the conversation cannot settle during the
handoff.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Accepted production source: `50f4432ed88537b8d522cf1dce24c33588db0bac`.
Parent #17758 merged as `8ac5a128e66fb672e88106412f76cf278599bfc4`. The
publication adopts that actual squash through a normal merge with an
unchanged complete child tree.

## What Changed

- Preserve quiet after coarse company-only maintenance hints. The shared
inbound-notice and response-availability helpers keep settlement enabled
by default. Only the milestone dispatcher suppresses their duplicate
settlement fanout. Its scoped issue-review signal and the explicit
company-authority signal still wake real work. Four database cases prove
both quiet and real company-wide producer delivery.
- Preserve source-generation checks for chat handoff,
task-before-comment locking, issue-scoped decision invalidation, and
current conversation event columns from master.
- Track initial external conversation settlement through shutdown
without blocking HTTP readiness on endpoint or task locks.

- Reuse the real queue's coalesced recovery receipt after restart,
without admitting the same monitor recovery again.

- Share the existing conversation readiness predicate between bounded
discovery and locked settlement. Preserve current provider policy,
run/publication proof, company boundaries, and endpoint-to-issue lock
order.
- Register a scoped deadline worker through the delivery coordinator.
Preserve startup, restore/worktree suppression, drain/resume, failure
recovery, and joined shutdown.
- Extend existing review, milestone, wake-notice, and finalization
signals. Add notifications at independent issue, comment, goal, session,
and wake-receipt unblocks.
- Keep monitor owner recovery pending until guarded admission. Reuse an
accepted receipt for the same monitor schedule after restart, even when
its limit reason changes; retain compatibility with legacy receipt keys.
Commit board escalation and its monitor clear together.
- Delegate periodic native settlement while preserving resource
callbacks. Keep direct/manual defaults and preserve generic recovery
ordering with a read-only readiness guard.
- Add the producer and lifecycle audit in
`doc/plans/2026-10-26-external-conversation-settlement-sleep.md` and
update the stack ledger.

## Verification

Accepted production source: `50f4432ed88537b8d522cf1dce24c33588db0bac`.
Publication head: `b256bb52647affd9f5279ea8c40f48bbe40f031f`.
The complete accepted child tree stays unchanged when adopting merged
parent #17758. This publication adds only the audit document.

- **3,129 distinct cases in 37 complete server files pass**, plus **18
selected chat-response cases** (3,147 selected cases). The other 1,796
chat cases were not run locally. Full settlement, queue, scheduling,
run-state, goals, interactions, task Retry, decision targets, status
reassessment, workspace, process recovery, and review consumers are
covered.
- **Preserved failure:** the first 35-file command passed 2,445 cases
and timed out one restored-work handoff at its existing 15-second limit.
That aggregate command failed. The unchanged full 89-case actions file
then passed on a fresh fixture; the affected case took 22 ms. Root cause
was not established. No timeout or assertion changed. The 34 other files
passed originally. Distinct counts exclude duplicate actions passes.
Fresh CI remains a separate gate.
- **Indirect wake regression:** the original unconditional baseline
failed two quiet checks. Guards alone left the chat case failing with
three candidate queries. The final controlled indirect baseline fails
one of four cases; the repair passes all four with the same test hash.
Positive controls preserve real company-only producers.
- **Source and fixture controls:** all 38 selected test files restore to
their exact committed hashes after fixture imports. Fresh PostgreSQL 17
fixtures use 413 migrations. All five manual merge resolutions preserve
current authority, locking, and event-column contracts.
- **Static checks pass:** database build; server typecheck and build;
module boundaries; migration order; Copilot profile identity. Runner
packages equal the accepted parent byte for byte. No new Runner/package
qualification is claimed.
- [Current integration and wake
audit](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/b256bb52647affd9f5279ea8c40f48bbe40f031f/doc/plans/2026-10-26-external-conversation-settlement-sleep.md#current-master-integration-and-indirect-wake-audit-2026-10-29).
Latest-head CI and exact-head Greptile 5/5 must pass before merge.

<details><summary>Earlier revision verification and preserved failure
history</summary>

Receiver failure fairness: a controlled 1,100 ms batch reproduced a
30-second delay for healthy due receivers. The worker now supplies its
existing per-item deadline through `nextRunAtOnError`. All 20 receiver
lifecycle tests pass on the owner and combined tip
`31c12f1d68ff4a51e06fc2be2abf2c2aee9f9d3a`; server production
typechecking passes on the owner. The failed receiver retains its own
backoff, and settled receivers return to zero recurring SQL. The
five-second assertion budget is unchanged. See [the owning
audit](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/83204a67880d980cfbea3771cee19a3cda0022b7/doc/plans/2026-10-25-chat-receiver-discovery-sleep-audit.md#healthy-receiver-progress-after-a-slow-failed-batch).
Current-head CI and review remain required.

Approved delegated Test-tab calls now evaluate caller and target
policies in the existing claim transaction. Real HTTP regressions first
showed a missing caller charge and shared-limit self-rejection. All 78
connection-management cases and 92 gateway cases now pass on the owning
branch, along with server production typechecking. All 78
connection-management cases also pass at combined tip
`d25f830db89c1623bff3547bfc68015c1c66e0cf`. The three new cases cover
shared charges, separate charges, rollback on denial, duplicate
approval, and rejection of a later authorized call. Intermediate
counter/identity fixture failures and a reused-database Slack collision
are recorded in [the owning
audit](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/ef9ae5767430d0093efc736ae0b303ba5afaae65/doc/idle-approved-tool-recovery.md#delegated-test-tab-admission-after-policy-changes).
The earlier combined checks below remain evidence for their stated

the fixture clock advancement and its audit note.

</details>

## Risks

- Signals cover supported in-process writers. They do not supply change
capture for independent SQL or other replicas.
- Real company-wide changes can inspect active candidates. Coarse
maintenance hints do not activate settlement. Configured idle and
retained history must remain quiet.
- Monitor receipt binding and admission order must preserve company,
agent, issue, and exact schedule identity. Current parent handoff locks
and source-generation checks remain intact.
- The local restored-work timeout is retained above. A fresh full-file
pass does not establish its cause; latest-head CI must also pass.
- Generic recovery and Muse/resource duties remain separate slices. This
does not make the whole server idle. Existing Cloud sleep blockers
remain. No deployed sleep, database suspension, external alarm coverage,
fleet cost, or live provider qualification claim is made.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, code execution, PostgreSQL
tests, and GitHub tools. The exact runtime model identifier and
context-window size are not exposed in this session.

df6156c2e3 fix(server): wake native status reassessment from committed changes (#17709)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents, tasks and their durable native results.
> - Changed evidence, task authority or review retirement can require a
new status assessment.
> - Periodic orphan recovery repeatedly reads history to find these
changes.
> - This change gives reassessment an owner driven by committed changes
and saved deadlines.
> - Existing result, assessment, decision and task rows remain durable
truth.
> - The status committer still verifies current sources and authority
before writing.
> - Settled or insufficient evidence becomes quiet until a supported
producer changes it.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17702 (merged), #17679 and #17680. This is slice 50, now based on
master. It owns native status reassessment; workspace settlement,
retained sessions and other orphan duties remain separate.

**What happened?**

Periodic recovery repeatedly inspects completed native results. Removing
that scan without complete writer coverage or current authority checks
could strand new evidence or commit an old result over newer work.

**Expected behavior**

Reassess from existing durable facts after relevant outer transactions
commit. Retain real retry/lease deadlines and restart/drain recovery.
Preserve current authority, quality-review and supersession checks. Make
no recurring SQL when work is settled or dormant.

**Steps to reproduce**

Complete a native result awaiting evidence or review, leave it idle,
then approve a real work product or retire the selected automatic
review. Its saved result should advance once when authorized, or record
the existing nonterminal business gate, without a periodic scan.

## What Changed

- Extract reassessment and its pure status policy from finalization
recovery into their owning modules. Add a scoped worker using the
existing delivery coordinator and scheduler; no queue table or migration
is added.
- Retain the three durable discovery triggers: changed work-product
history, authoritative task status/version, or retirement of the
selected automatic completion review. Preserve selected-source,
ownership, effects, retry and lease fences under the existing committer.
- Notify from actual task/work-product, claim release, approval,
interaction, OAuth, event evidence and workspace-settlement owners
before their transaction writes. Keep provider calls outside short
transactions and nested writes behind outer commit.
- Scope ordinary milestone/finalization/coalesced-input wakes to an
issue/run. Keep genuine company authority restoration explicit. Real
Photon and coalescer regressions cover all three response/status queues.
- Move the current parent's required quality policy into the owner and
apply it to every reassessment that could complete a task. An unmet
review records the existing in-progress decision and next action,
avoiding an operational retry loop. Preserve conversation/session reset
locks and the workspace omission-barrier signal.
- Skip reassessment in periodic recovery while preserving
explicit/startup recovery and the historical supersession guard before
independent workspace work. Document the source contract, producer
inventory, failures and qualifications in the linked audit.

## Verification

- Broad source `9fddb3f0b1157df32b64fb1f22e9d6e9624470e8` passes **2731
distinct cases in 28 complete files**, with no skips: 2458
producer/owner/authority/workspace/quality cases in 394.43 seconds and
all 273 governed-response cases in 53.74 seconds. Nineteen dedicated
fresh PostgreSQL 17 databases migrate through 0413; eighteen
embedded-only invocations preserve fresh-per-call isolation through the
existing recovery helper. All 22 temporary imports restore exactly and
all 28 hashes match.
- Final runtime source `5ea3b0fd016bf7e63ba82a7044825a46a0cd2082` passes
**1211 cases in five complete affected files** in 108.23 seconds after
the narrowly reproduced evidence-trigger fix: all 43 worker, 145 corpus,
32 finalization-recovery, 968 native-session and 23 quality-review
cases. Four fresh databases plus the quality helper's own fresh fixture
use PostgreSQL 17. Its one adapted import restores exactly; all five
hashes match. The other 27 broad-run test files are unchanged. These
qualifications are source-scoped and not cumulatively double-counted.
- Required/optional real regressions reproduce retry loops on
retired-review and evidence-approval paths before repair; both become
SQL quiet afterward with unchanged assertions/time limits. Controlled
removal of only ordinary scope guards reproduces two coarse-hint SQL
failures; exact guard restoration passes. Real producer, outer
transaction, claim, authority, 103-item backlog, retry and drain cases
pass. Photon transport is mocked; callbacks, locks and observed SQL are
real.
- Normal merges preserve 12661 parent/unrelated entries, 35 owned
entries and 21 automatic shared results, with five original conflicts
reviewed explicitly. The parent's actual squash reconciliation preserves
the entire held child tree. The final quality fix changes only its owner
and tests. Fourteen added comments are removed with identical nontrivia
tokens; no directives are removed and the final comment check is empty.
- Database build, server types/build, boundaries and exact-head
migration order pass. The database tree is identical to merged #17702:
no new SQL, queue table or snapshot is generated. Earlier benchmarks,
host limitations, failed assertions and their repairs remain in
`doc/plans/2026-10-26-native-status-reassessment-sleep-audit.md` and
`doc/idle-native-status-reassessment.md`.
- This qualifies targeted external PostgreSQL behavior, not embedded
bootstrap on the semaphore-exhausted host, a full local repository
suite, deployed sleep or measured fleet savings. Fresh exact-head CI and
review remain required.

## Risks

- Notifications retain the process-local supported-writer contract.
Independent SQL writers and uncoordinated replicas are not covered by a
new transport.
- Reassessment competes with current authority changes. Existing
row/source locks and retries remain required; arbitrary missing
identities have no row to lock, so this is not a general predicate-lock
guarantee.
- Discovery pages 100 rows but retains outstanding candidates in memory.
It remains proportional to backlog size, and cancellation occurs between
queries.
- Other orphan/workspace/session duties and Cloud sleep eligibility
remain unchanged. Missing supported producer coverage could strand
dormant work, so the producer audit and real callback/transaction tests
remain part of acceptance.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, shell
execution and PostgreSQL tests. The runtime does not expose a more
specific serving snapshot or context-window size.

79ce86630a fix(server): schedule governed review response recovery (#17702)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents, tasks and their external chat responses.
> - A completed chat turn can owe a response while an earlier review
gate remains pending.
> - Periodic recovery revisits that response history even when no work
can advance.
> - This change uses the existing delivery coordinator and saved retry
deadlines.
> - Approval, interaction and authority changes wake the affected issue
or run after commit.
> - The existing presentation owner verifies the durable result and
current authority.
> - Settled and dormant history becomes quiet without losing future
eligible responses.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17696 (merged) and #15625. This is slice 49, now based on master.
It owns governed-review response presentation. Accepted responses and
pending decision effects keep their existing owners.

**What happened?**

Native finalization recovery repeatedly inspects committed review
responses. Removing the scan without covering approval, interaction,
task-policy and authority changes would strand responses that become
eligible later.

**Expected behavior**

Recover an owed response once from existing durable facts. Enforce
authority at publication, wake after relevant outer transactions commit,
retain real retry deadlines and restart/drain recovery, and stop
recurring SQL when no response can advance.

**Steps to reproduce**

Complete an external chat turn while an earlier completion review
remains pending. Block its response behind an approval or interaction,
then resolve that blocker. The response must appear once without a
periodic scan or resolving the original review gate.

## What Changed

- Add a scoped governed-review worker using the existing coordinator,
finalizations, decisions and comment receipts. No queue table or
transaction wrapper is added.
- Keep recovery and publication policy in the native finalizer. Preserve
binding, source/session authority, ownership, deadline and
deleted-comment fences; match coordinator-before-issue lock ordering.
- Notify through actual approval, interaction, OAuth, task-policy and
lifecycle producers before their owned writes. Serialize approval
resolution with task linking so a concurrent link retains its wake.
Nested transactions still settle at outer commit.
- Scope ordinary milestones, finalization and coalesced input to their
issue/run. Use the explicit company authority boundary for genuine
global restoration, including membership changes. Both response workers
share this boundary.
- Register under maintenance and drain gates, disable the two periodic
repair entrances, and retain fresh finalization and explicit recovery.
Add the concurrent 0413 comment-receipt index and migration
registration; retain five snapshots.
- Preserve the producer inventory, source qualifications and earlier
failures in the owner audit. Retain a real Photon regression proving
routine ownership assertions stay quiet and concurrent authority
restoration wakes each worker once.

## Verification

- Scoped repair source `2341714720b5c273f0ce011b48345af0ef39227f` passes
**2053 distinct cases**: 1703 in 15 complete producer/authority/recovery
files, including all 273 governed-response cases and 95 wake-queue
adapter cases, plus 350 selected chat cases. Another 1463 chat cases are
outside that selection. Thirteen fresh PostgreSQL 17 fixtures migrate
through unchanged 0413; the one temporary queue-fixture import restores
exactly. All sixteen captured hashes match.
- Two actual repeated coarse-hint SQL regressions fail before repair and
pass afterward. Actual membership restoration passes before and after.
The same assertions and time limits prove dormant work stays quiet and
real authority restoration still publishes once. Real coalesced input
covers both queues after commit.
- Combined source `586f5674cd9798b33cd22437255e0480b5726d20`, including
independent master #18129, passes **1297 distinct cases**: 1093 in five
complete server files, 185 in five runner files, 14 Node protocol cases
and five UI registry cases. This includes the complete 22-case Photon
file for both response workers. The external Photon transport is mocked;
Paperclip callbacks, transaction fences and observed SQL are real. The
earlier and combined case counts are separate, with no cumulative
double-counting.
- A normal merge retains both complete owned and independent master
binary patches. All twelve new-context hashes and sixteen earlier repair
hashes match. Three dedicated fresh 0413 fixtures plus the live-event
helper's own fresh database use PostgreSQL 17 without source
adaptations. Database build, server types/build, boundaries, full-SHA
migration order and generated TS/Rust profiles pass. The new inherited
Runner vendor inputs rebuild successfully.
- Database bytes remain identical to the previously qualified 0413
source. The recorded populated 0412-to0413 upgrade retains all 411 prior
receipts and 38 companies, appends one receipt and none on replay; the
index is valid and ready. The earlier 2828-case acceptance, CLI journey,
setup failures and their repairs retain their recorded source scope in
`doc/plans/2026-10-26-governed-review-response-sleep-audit.md`.
- Parent #17696 merged with 58 clean checks, Greptile 5/5 and Ponytail
5/5. Its Photon warning was disproved by real callback/SQL evidence and
the security check became successful. This PR still requires its own
fresh exact-head CI and review gates. No deployed sleep, external alarm
or fleet savings claim is made.

## Risks

- Notifications use the existing process-local writer contract.
Independent SQL writers and uncoordinated replicas are outside its
coverage.
- Genuine startup and company authority reconstruction remain
proportional to the owed backlog. Queries page 100 rows, but discovery
accumulates the candidates; this is not a constant-cost global
operation.
- Current publication authorization, durable binding, ownership and lock
ordering remain mandatory. The worker does not resolve the original
review gate.
- The concurrent index uses existing migration replay handling. Other
recovery duties and Cloud sleep eligibility remain separate.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, shell
execution and PostgreSQL tests. The runtime does not expose a more
specific serving snapshot or context-window size.

ec3b558277 fix(server): schedule accepted native response recovery (#17696)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native runs store accepted results and their finalization decisions.
> - A completed run can still owe its public answer after an
interruption.
> - Periodic recovery scans for that answer even when no new work
exists.
> - This pull request wakes recovery from committed changes and saved
retry deadlines.
> - The existing owner still verifies the result, source, and current
publication authority.
> - Settled or dormant response work no longer needs its own periodic
scan.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17690 (merged). This is slice 48 of the sleep migration stack, now
based on master. Related: #17661 handles GitHub terminal publication;
this change handles native accepted-response presentation.
Governed-review presentation remains a separate duty.

**What happened?**

Native finalization recovery repeatedly checks already accepted results
for a missing answer. Removing that check without complete notifications
would lose responses when evidence arrives late, an agent resumes, or
admission settles after execution.

**Expected behavior**

Recover the answer from its saved result when a supported change makes
it eligible. Retain real retry deadlines. Stop querying when the answer
is selected or cannot currently be published. Reconstruct work after
restart.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Commit a native accepted result with no selected response comment.
2. Run finalization recovery while its source is unavailable or locked.
3. Restore that source or release the lock. The answer must appear once
without repeating provider execution.

## What Changed

- Honor recorded non-create decisions and skip-comment policy in both
discovery and recovery. Apply durable conversation/result/continuation
guards before recovery locks. Preserve genuine unanswered and legacy
recovery.
- Scope routine response wakes to the affected issue/run. Coalesced
input names its active run; pending-effect settlement names its issue.
Sixteen existing global authority/configuration hooks use one explicit
company invalidation boundary. No new transaction wrappers or tables are
added.
- Add an accepted-response worker using the existing delivery
coordinator and scoped deadline helper. Preserve saved retry deadlines
and pending-effect fences under the owner's lock.
- Share the finalization notification boundary. Wake on finalization
settlement, exact accepted-result/final-message evidence, agent
availability, retry admission, and existing chat authority changes.
- Keep lifecycle policy in services. A narrow pre-write status hook lets
lifecycle retain ownership of its transaction and status transitions.
- Register the worker during enabled maintenance startup. Remove its
authority subscription on shutdown. Periodic replay skips this duty on
both committed and fresh-commit paths; ordinary finalization and
explicit recovery retain their behavior.
- Add a partial index and expression statistics for unpresented native
runs. Migration 0412 supports concurrent replay and adds no queue table.
- Add real PostgreSQL and lifecycle coverage. Preserve the
implementation and producer audit in the plan document.

## Verification

- Additional real Photon callback acceptance on the published production
code disproves the security warning: ten active assertions cause zero
response-recovery hints/SELECTs, while three concurrent assertions
during an actual attention-to-active recovery cause exactly one
wake/SELECT. The existing locked status guard already enforces this
boundary. No production change was needed; the resolved finding now has
a successful current-head security check. The regression will be
retained with the next slice.
- Eligibility repair source `892f36e5f66ba1af123034936a7160c64c3ab883`
passes **1489 distinct server cases**: 1139 in six complete
recovery/finalizer/monitor/summary/workspace suites (81.02 seconds),
plus 350 selected chat cases (297.68s). Another 1463 chat cases are
outside the pattern; the complete 1813-case file is not claimed. All
eleven new regressions are included in that count. Five dedicated fresh
PostgreSQL 17 databases migrate through unchanged 0412, with no
fixture-source adaptations. Database build, server types/build,
boundaries and full-SHA migration ordering pass. All seven test source
hashes match.
- The exact published baseline first fails eight behavioral assertions
while the three genuine-answer cases pass. The same corrected test
source passes all eleven after repair: recorded none/reuse remain
suppressed; five ineligible history families take zero recovery row
locks across repeated issue hints; missing/legacy/create-null answers
still publish once; fresh periodic finalization defers presentation to
its worker. Earlier fixture setup and variable/compiler failures remain
explained in the audit, rather than erased by later success.
- Repair source `2fc8b0614aaf9ac7337045de4ced7325f95edc45` passes **1821
server cases**: 1496 in 13 complete producer/lifecycle/authority suites
(110.63 seconds), plus 325 selected chat cases (278.99 seconds).
Coverage includes all native-session cases, queue admission, status
decisions, membership/board access, the complete GitHub workflow,
accepted-response lifecycle and real authority restoration. The other
1477 chat cases are outside this selection; the complete 1802-case file
is not claimed for this repair run.
- Actual PostgreSQL regressions first reproduce a coalesced-input hint
missing its run scope and two routine hint paths producing 12
response-history SELECTs each after three notifications. The same
assertions pass with run-scoped coalescing and zero response-history
SELECTs for unscoped routine hints. Actual membership restoration still
publishes the waiting response once. Assertion time limits are
unchanged; this measures real driver SQL and persisted producer work.
- Eleven dedicated fresh PostgreSQL 17 databases migrate through 0412.
One embedded-only wake-queue fixture import temporarily uses its own
external database and restores byte for byte. All 14 selected source
files match pre-run hashes. This qualifies external-database behavior
rather than reproducing embedded CI locally.
- Master advanced independently with #18126's Pi archive retry fix.
Normal merge `2a535bc61259ef99387369e8b32498f774e5ba2c` preserves both
complete binary patches. All accepted server/database/UI/test/CLI trees
stay identical; the three independent runner installer/manifest files
are retained. All 13 installer tests pass, including stalled header/body
cancellation. Combined server types/build, boundaries and full-SHA
migration order pass. A subsequent normal merge of #18128 at
`e8b78cce5bb557b086bee9ca930eeaab1d09b244` retains its three test-only
file changes with both complete patches preserved. The changed HTTPS
backfill case passes on a fresh PostgreSQL fixture (1 selected case; 178
outside the pattern), and combined types/build, boundaries and migration
order pass again. All 14 repair source hashes remain unchanged. The
independent browser fixture changes are preserved; no local browser run
is claimed.
- The earlier source `9feec170ef8174011fc3c5d3d6d76f0a0f39fea0` passed
the 4171-case full baseline before this scope repair. That scope is
preserved in the audit rather than represented as a current full rerun.
All 0412 database bytes remain unchanged: original concurrent
index/statistics/ANALYZE, prior executable history, journal entries and
retained snapshots. Five snapshots 0408 through 0412 remain. The
populated 0411-to0412 upgrade preserved 410 prior receipts and 38
companies, appended one receipt and none on replay; index/statistic
checks passed.
- The earlier P2 security failure, Greptile's former conditional
dependency on #17702, and the subsequent actual Ponytail eligibility
findings are recorded in
`doc/plans/2026-10-25-native-response-presentation-sleep-audit.md`. This
PR now includes the issue-scoped pending-effect notification fix itself,
so it is independently correct before #17702. Fresh published-head CI,
Greptile 5/5 and a clean security scan remain required. No
deployed-sleep, external-wake or fleet-savings claim is made.


## Risks

- The writer contract is process-local. Independent SQL writers and
other replicas are not covered by these notifications.
- Unpresented backlog reconstruction still has memory and time cost
proportional to candidate count. Pages contain at most 100 rows;
execution uses the shared fair batch. Selected history is excluded.
Health-only signals do not trigger reconstruction.
- Publication policy remains with its current owner. Digest, company/run
binding, source authorization, selected-answer suppression, and
ownership fences remain required.
- The rest of native recovery and governed-review presentation still run
separately. This PR does not relax Cloud sleep eligibility or add
external wake coverage.
- The stack parent has merged and its actual ancestry is reconciled.
This publication still needs fresh current-head CI and review.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, shell
execution, and PostgreSQL tests. The runtime does not expose a more
specific model identifier or context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip 4e715eb7ea fix(server): schedule historical unsafe export recovery (#17687)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native runs can retain accepted results after an unsafe workspace
export fails.
> - Historical recovery can retire an old notice or resume the accepted
result without another provider turn.
> - The periodic reaper repeatedly scans failures that cannot currently
recover.
> - Existing rows and committed changes can identify the actual recovery
obligation.
> - This pull request wakes recovery from those changes and retries only
owed work.
> - Dormant history becomes quiet while ownership and explicit operator
decisions remain protected.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

The native finalization reaper repeatedly visits historical unsafe
workspace-export failures. Cancelled tasks, newer runs, changed
contracts, and explicit operator decisions can make those rows
permanently ineligible. They still produce periodic database reads.

**What did you expect?**

Retire stale unsafe-export notices and recover eligible accepted
results. Stop reading dormant history until a relevant committed change
occurs. Keep a retry while a real obligation is blocked by ownership or
a transient failure.

**Steps to reproduce**

Retain an unsafe-export terminal failure whose task is cancelled or
superseded. Leave the instance idle after startup. The periodic reaper
continues reading that history.

Prerequisite #17680 is merged into master. Related: #14402 established
safe export finalization; #14329 was an earlier historical recovery
proposal. #17679 owns separate policy-review cleanup. This PR changes
only historical unsafe-export scheduling and its producers.

## What Changed

- Register a scoped worker through the existing coordinator and
scheduler. Remove this duty from periodic reaping. Preserve the
manual/startup recovery entry point.
- Distinguish stale notices, eligible accepted results, dormant history,
and concrete ownership contention. Reuse the existing mutation owner and
lock order. Preserve explicit settlement vetoes and exact
result/contract identity.
- Signal relevant task, run, action, and deletion writes before they
commit. Existing transaction boundaries handle nested commits and
uncertain outcomes. Notifications contain only scope IDs.
- Retain a retry only for owed work. Reconstruct work at startup,
preserve drain/resume, and stop through the shared lifecycle.
- Add concurrent, idempotent partial index migration 0410 for unsafe
terminal failures. Keep the five newest generated schema snapshots.
- Document producer coverage, query plans, supported writer boundaries,
and test failures in the unsafe-export audit.

## Verification

- Source `2a13dd08a6cc52f0adab09e3df9ce31e97b746b9` passes all 2188
cases across 24 complete files, without skips. The main selection passes
2129 cases in 192.58 seconds; safe-replacement passes 59 in 26.04
seconds. Coverage includes all 968 native-session cases, real
export/action producers, explicit continuation, workspace
reconstruction, interaction routing, Stop, queue and Slack consumers.
The audit gives per-file counts.
- Twenty separate fresh PostgreSQL 17 databases migrate through 0410
before setup. Four embedded-only fixture imports temporarily use their
own external database on this IPC-exhausted host, then are restored byte
for byte. Assertions and timing limits stay unchanged. This is qualified
external-database acceptance, not an unmodified embedded CI run.
- Database build, server typecheck/build, module boundaries and
exact-head migration order pass. Normal integration preserves the
complete original runtime/schema patch and unrelated upstream blobs.
Original concurrent index SQL, all prior executable history, journal
entries and retained snapshot bytes are unchanged; five snapshots 0406
through 0410 remain. Added comment removal preserves the full
non-comment TypeScript token streams.
- A populated 0409-to0410 upgrade preserves all 408 prior migration
receipts and 38 companies. It appends exactly one receipt; replay adds
none. The index is valid and ready on fresh and upgraded databases.
- The owning audit retains earlier fixture failures, skipped checks and
notice-retirement regression history. Older combined stack checks retain
their original scope in their owning audits. Actual parent
`73d24aa5acfcf17b3f676b4da7cd05eb70b60b99` is reconciled through a
normal merge. Its tree equals the reviewed ancestor and the complete
accepted child tree is unchanged. Fresh published-head CI and Greptile
5/5 remain required. No deployed sleep, fleet-cost or live provider
qualification claim is made.

- Inherited prefix correction: current integration
`8f43c9f81fac23b50997e7f0e1d0d9cf383a8109` changes only two values in a
previously unselected corpus fixture. All production code, the complete
package tree and all 24 accepted test files remain byte-identical to the
2188-case source above. The additional complete 72-case corpus passes in
14.00 seconds and again on the same database in 13.08 seconds. Retained
PSC/OUT and sentinel rows remain unchanged. The repeat is not
double-counted. The parent audit retains the original collision and
rejected cleanup attempt.

- Latest parent context: integration
`4d51231abe8b68c21ce896d0d2ac16865978c8ab` carries only the parent's
one-argument GitHub observation correction and an independent master
cleanup assertion. All production code, packages, 24 accepted suite
files and the additional corpus are unchanged. The two focused
native-presentation cases pass in 15.14 seconds and the complete
cleanup-removal suite passes all six cases in 8.31 seconds on two fresh
0410 PostgreSQL fixtures. This does not claim the full parent workflow
was rerun here.

Current head `b28399babac72ba9db1c4a4ef882c5e87aded38c` has passing CI
and Greptile 5/5 with no actionable findings. The first CI attempt lost
runners: fourteen jobs explicitly received simultaneous shutdown
signals, two reported lost runner communication, and two aggregate gates
failed downstream. One failed-job retry on unchanged source passes. The
underlying host shutdown cause remains unconfirmed; no code fix or extra
retry is claimed. [CI run and
attempts](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40819408528).
No Ponytail verdict is present.

## Risks

- A missing future producer can delay dormant-history discovery until
restart. The audit names current producers. Independent SQL writers and
other server processes remain outside the process-local signal contract.
- Physical ownership and uncertain operations retain retries. Time alone
does not authorize taking workspace ownership. No provider turn or
unsafe archive retry is added.
- The recovery owner remains authoritative if state changes after
discovery. Terminal UI status does not authorize resource destruction or
accepted-result replay.
- The partial index adds matching-row write/storage cost. It builds
concurrently through the existing restart-safe migration runner.
- This proves the changed worker becomes quiet. It does not prove host
suspension, external wake coverage, or fleet cost savings. Other sleep
migrations remain. This slice still requires fresh current-head CI and
reviews.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with reasoning and code-execution tools.
The exact serving model ID and context-window size are not exposed in
this session.

DottaandPaperclip 51c3f8924c fix(server): schedule cancelled workspace preservation (#17677)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A cancelled native run may still owe preservation of prepared
workspace files.
> - The existing recovery receipt and source lease record that
obligation.
> - The orphan reaper still searches for these cancellations on every
pass.
> - This PR registers committed cancellations with the shared deadline
worker.
> - The existing retention owner keeps file pinning and ownership
checks.
> - Idle and completed history no longer causes this preservation scan.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17674 and #17145. Stopped instruction collection is merged into
master. It owns file-preservation discovery only. The existing
environment cleanup worker continues to own stop-only teardown.

**What needs to be improved?**

`preserveCancelledNativeWorkspaces` runs from every orphan-reaper pass.
It queries even when no cancelled native workspace needs a file-recovery
hold. Current foreground Stop can also defer retention after a lock or
database failure, so startup-only recovery would be insufficient.

**Why is this improvement important?**

Empty queries keep idle tenants active. Removing them must not lose user
files, weaken Stop ownership, replay cancelled work, or turn a retained
allocation into destructive cleanup.

**Proposed solution**

Register the existing durable obligation from committed run-status,
cancellation-acknowledgement and workspace-reference writes. Reconstruct
it at startup. Keep retries while actual preservation remains
unresolved. Disarm after the existing owner records the hold. Related-PR
search and ROADMAP.md review found no duplicate of this scheduling
migration.

## What Changed

- Add a company/run-scoped preservation worker with 100-row keyset
reconstruction and fair batches of five.
- Separate pending file debt from immediate coordinator/lease readiness.
Retain a 30-second retry for known unfinished preservation and shared
failure backoff for errors.
- Signal the existing status, acknowledgement, workspace-reference,
deletion and settings transactions. Add no table or independent timer.
- Keep exact source checks, no-workspace contracts, task/coordinator/run
lock order, retention receipt and no-replay recovery card with their
owners.
- Recheck cancellation acknowledgement, run status and coordinator phase
under the retention locks. Preserve the existing foreground preterminal
API.
- Keep startup/manual recovery; skip only this duty in periodic reaping.
Preserve drain/standby and shutdown behavior.
- Add concurrent, replay-safe partial index migration 0409 and retain
the five newest snapshots.
- Add the producer and lifecycle audit in
`doc/plans/2026-10-25-cancelled-workspace-preservation-sleep-audit.md`.

## Verification

- Current source `21b46a8e4293ca670235117458b984493a181759`: all 1472
cases in 16 complete files pass without skips. The owner passes 84 cases
in 14.93 seconds. Fifteen consumer files pass 1388 cases in 133.46
seconds, including all 968 native-session cases and Stop, dispatch,
restart, workspace-sync and upgrade-readiness coverage.
- Twelve separate fresh PostgreSQL 17 databases migrated through 0409
before setup. The embedded-only lifecycle fixture temporarily used its
own external database on this IPC-exhausted host and was restored byte
for byte. Assertions and timing limits stayed unchanged. This qualifies
external-database behavior; it does not claim an unmodified embedded CI
run.
- Database build, server typecheck/build, module boundaries and
exact-head migration order pass. The complete original runtime/schema
patch and unrelated current-parent blobs are preserved. Original
concurrent index SQL, all earlier executable history and retained
snapshot bytes are unchanged; five snapshots 0405 through 0409 remain.
- A populated 0408-to0409 upgrade preserves all 407 prior receipts and
38 companies. Exactly one receipt is appended; replay adds none. The
preservation index is valid and ready on fresh and upgraded databases.
- Actual parent `82529741418e138d9d623bf13d2fa22c1ff79d36` is merged
through a normal ancestry reconciliation. Its complete tree equals the
reviewed parent. The entire accepted child tree and all source hashes
are preserved. The audit retains earlier failures, qualifications and
per-file counts. Published head
`b34f0589847f33754ecde9413fd36bf007353d2c` has Greptile 5/5 and all 57
checks passing or skipped. No Ponytail review is present. These checks
do not establish deployed host/database suspension or Cloud alarm
delivery.

## Risks

- Signals cover instrumented single-process writers. Independent SQL
writers and additional replicas need integration.
- Status signals may inspect a run without relevant file debt once. They
do not create recurring work. Discovery and memory still scale with
actual candidates.
- Missing ownership or stop evidence remains pending. Active retries are
intentional while a concrete file obligation is unresolved.
- Retry timing is process-local; startup reconstructs durable debt. The
worker does not overwrite another native-finalizer deadline.
- Admitted database operations may finish after drain begins. Shutdown
joins them. Provider teardown remains with the existing cleanup owner.
- The partial index adds storage and write cost. Its concurrent
migration uses the existing interrupted-index repair path.
- Cloud alarm coverage, sleep eligibility and host suspension are
unchanged. This proves worker behavior, not fleet savings.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, shell tools, and PostgreSQL
tests. The runtime does not expose a more precise model ID or
context-window size for this turn.
