## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Legacy local adapters run agents that use the Paperclip skill for
the control-plane workflow.
> - PR #7029 removed the required-skill fallback and made runtime skill
selection depend only on stored preferences.
> - No migration or runtime fallback replaced that behavior for existing
agents or non-CEO agents.
> - PR #12138 added core skills to new CEOs, and PR #12147 added Claude
skill discovery. These changes did not mount the operational skill for
all legacy agents.
> - This pull request makes the operational skill a legacy adapter
runtime invariant. It keeps all other skills configurable.
> - The native runner stays unchanged because its protocol supplies the
control-plane contract.
> - The benefit is that new and existing legacy agents can always
operate through Paperclip.

**What happened?**

A skill-capable legacy local agent could start without
`paperclipai/paperclip/paperclip`. This happened when the agent had no
stored skill preference. An explicit empty preference also removed the
skill. The agent then reported that the Paperclip skill was not
available.

**Expected behavior**

Every skill-capable legacy local adapter must mount the Paperclip
operational skill when the runtime inventory contains it. Optional
skills must remain configurable. The native runner must keep its current
protocol-based behavior.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create a non-CEO `codex_local` agent without `paperclipSkillSync`
preferences.
2. Start a legacy heartbeat.
3. Inspect the managed `CODEX_HOME/skills` directory.
4. Observe that the Paperclip skill is absent before this change.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The problem reproduces on `master` before this pull request. PR #7029
introduced the configured-only selection behavior.

**Deployment mode**

Local development and self-hosted legacy local adapters.

## What Changed

- Added a shared legacy skill resolver that always selects the canonical
Paperclip operational skill when it is available.
- Applied the resolver to direct adapter execution, ACPX execution,
skill snapshots, and persistent skill sync.
- Added Hermes skill materialization at sync and run boundaries.
- Aligned Cursor, Gemini, and OpenCode execution-time injection with the
configured child `HOME`.
- Made Hermes stop execution when another installation blocks the
required operational skill.
- Kept optional skills controlled by `paperclipSkillSync.desiredSkills`.
- Kept `paperclip_runner` on the configurable-only resolver.
- Added regression coverage for missing preferences, empty preferences,
each skill-capable legacy adapter, ACPX, Hermes, and native runner
isolation.
- Documented the legacy runtime invariant.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed on the pushed commit.
- `pnpm build` passed on the pushed commit.
- The adapter utility regression suites passed: 236 tests.
- The changed server adapter suites passed: 48 tests across 12 files.
- The OpenCode adapter suite passed: 8 tests.
- The Hermes adapter suite passed: 7 tests.
- `git diff --check` passed.
- `pnpm test:run` is not clean on this macOS host. The command reported
failures in unchanged workspace and filesystem suites. An isolated rerun
of `company-skills.test.ts` and `company-skills-service.test.ts`
reproduced 11 failures because macOS resolved `/var/...` paths as
`/private/var/...`. The changed adapter suites pass independently.

## Risks

- This change deliberately makes the operational skill non-removable for
skill-capable legacy local adapters.
- Existing agents receive the skill on their next list, sync, or run
boundary. No database migration is required.
- The resolver does not create a skill when the runtime inventory does
not contain the canonical entry.
- Hermes aborts a run if another installation occupies the required
operational skill target.
- Hermes removes only an undesired Paperclip-owned symlink that still
points to the known Paperclip source.
- The native runner does not receive the legacy default.

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

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

**Summary**

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

**Problem or motivation**

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

**Proposed solution**

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

**Alternatives considered**

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

**Roadmap alignment**

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

Run from the workspace root:

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

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

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

Locally:

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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

778e775c35 Add secrets provider vaults and remote import (#5429)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI-agent companies and needs secrets handling
to work across local development, hosted operators, and governed agent
execution.
> - The affected subsystem is the company-scoped secrets control plane:
database schema, server services/routes, CLI workflows, and the Secrets
settings UI.
> - The gap was that secrets were local-only and operators could not
manage provider vaults or import existing remote references without
exposing plaintext.
> - This branch adds provider vault configuration plus an AWS Secrets
Manager remote-import path while preserving company boundaries, binding
context, and audit trails.
> - I kept the PR to a single branch PR, removed unrelated
lockfile/package drift, rebased the full branch onto the current
`public-gh/master`, and addressed fresh Greptile findings.
> - The benefit is a reviewable implementation of provider-backed
secrets with focused tests covering provider selection, import
conflicts, deleted secret reuse, rotation guards, and AWS signing
behavior.

## What Changed

- Added provider vault support for company secrets, including provider
config storage, default vault handling, health checks, binding usage,
access events, and remote import preview/commit.
- Added an AWS Secrets Manager provider using SigV4 request signing,
bounded request timeouts, namespace guardrails, cached runtime
credential resolution, and external-reference linking without plaintext
reads.
- Added Secrets UI surfaces for vault management and remote import, plus
CLI/API documentation for setup and operations.
- Stabilized routine webhook secret binding paths and SSH
environment-driver fixture bindings discovered during verification.
- Addressed Greptile and CI findings: no lockfile/package drift,
monotonic migration metadata, disabled-vault default races, soft-deleted
secret hiding/recreate behavior, remove behavior with disabled vaults,
soft-deleted external-reference re-import, non-active rotation guards,
managed-secret soft deletion through PATCH, and per-call AWS SDK
credential client churn.
- Rebased this branch onto `public-gh/master` at `0e1a5828` and
force-pushed with lease to keep this as the single PR for the branch.

## Verification

- `git fetch public-gh master`
- `git rebase public-gh/master`
- `git diff --name-only public-gh/master...HEAD | grep
'^pnpm-lock\.yaml$' || true` confirmed `pnpm-lock.yaml` is not in the PR
diff.
- Confirmed migration ordering: master ends at `0081_optimal_dormammu`;
this PR adds `0082_dry_vision` and
`0083_company_secret_provider_configs`.
- Inspected migrations for repeat safety: new tables/indexes use `IF NOT
EXISTS`; foreign keys are guarded by `DO $$ ... IF NOT EXISTS`; column
additions use `ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS`.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed before the Greptile follow-up commits.
- `pnpm test:run` ran the full stable Vitest path before the Greptile
follow-up commits; it completed with 3 timing-related failures under
parallel load: `codex-local-execute.test.ts`,
`cursor-local-execute.test.ts`, and `environment-service.test.ts`.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/codex-local-execute.test.ts
src/__tests__/cursor-local-execute.test.ts
src/__tests__/environment-service.test.ts` passed on targeted rerun
(`24/24`).
- `pnpm build` passed before the Greptile follow-up commits. Vite
reported existing chunk-size/dynamic-import warnings.
- After Greptile follow-up commits: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server
exec vitest run src/__tests__/secrets-service.test.ts` passed (`26/26`).
- After Greptile follow-up commits: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server
exec vitest run src/__tests__/aws-secrets-manager-provider.test.ts
src/__tests__/secrets-service.test.ts` passed (`39/39`).
- After Greptile follow-up commits: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server
typecheck` passed.
- Captured Storybook screenshots from `ui/storybook-static` for visual
review.
- Latest PR checks on `5ca3a5cf`: `policy`, serialized server suites
1/4-4/4, `Canary Dry Run`, `e2e`, `security/snyk`, and `Greptile Review`
pass; aggregate `verify` is still registering the completed child
checks.
- Greptile review loop continued through the latest requested pass; all
Greptile review threads are resolved and the latest `Greptile Review`
check on `5ca3a5cf` passed with 0 comments added.

## Screenshots

Before: the provider-vault and remote-import surfaces did not exist on
`master`; these are after-state screenshots from the Storybook fixtures.

## Risks

- Migration risk: this adds new secret provider tables and extends
existing secret rows. The migrations were checked for monotonic ordering
and idempotent guards, but reviewers should still inspect upgrade
behavior carefully.
- Provider risk: AWS support uses direct SigV4 requests. Automated tests
cover signing, request timeouts, vault-config selection, namespace
guardrails, pending-version archival, sanitized provider errors, and
service-level cleanup paths. A real-vault AWS smoke test remains
deployment validation for an operator with AWS credentials rather than
an unverified merge blocker in this local branch.
- UI risk: the Secrets page and import dialog are large new surfaces;
screenshots are included above for reviewer inspection.
- Verification risk: the full local stable test command hit
parallel-load timing failures, although the exact failed files passed
when rerun directly.
- Operational risk: remote import intentionally avoids plaintext reads;
operators must understand that imported external references resolve at
runtime and may fail if AWS permissions change.

Devin Foley f9cf1d2f6a Add cursor sandbox support and fix SSH workspace sync (#4803)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Agents can run inside sandboxed environments like E2B, or on remote
hosts via SSH
> - The cursor adapter needs to resolve `cursor-agent` inside sandbox
environments where it's installed in `~/.local/bin`
> - But when using the default `agent` command on a sandbox target, the
adapter didn't know to look in `~/.local/bin/cursor-agent`, causing
"command not found" failures
> - Additionally, repeated SSH runs failed because `git checkout` during
workspace sync conflicted with leftover `.paperclip-runtime` files from
previous runs
> - This PR adds sandbox-aware command resolution for cursor and fixes
the SSH workspace sync conflict
> - The benefit is cursor works in E2B sandboxes out of the box, and
repeated SSH runs don't fail on workspace sync

## What Changed

- `cursor-local`: Added `prepareCursorSandboxCommand` — on sandbox
targets, reads the remote `$HOME`, prepends `~/.local/bin` to PATH, and
prefers `~/.local/bin/cursor-agent` when the default command is
requested; tightened the sandbox command probe to validate the binary
exists before launching; preserves explicit custom command overrides
- `adapter-utils/ssh.ts`: Added `--force` to git checkout in SSH
workspace sync to handle `.paperclip-runtime` untracked file conflicts
from previous runs

## Verification

- `pnpm test` — all existing and new tests pass, including cursor
sandbox probe, sandbox execution, and custom command override tests
- `pnpm typecheck` — clean
- Manual: configure an E2B environment, run a cursor-local task, verify
it resolves cursor-agent from the sandbox install path

## Risks

- Low-medium. The `--force` flag on git checkout could discard
uncommitted changes in the remote workspace, but the workspace is
managed by Paperclip and should not contain user edits.

## Model Used

Codex GPT 5.4 high via Paperclip.
