DottaandPaperclip cd4c4ed205 fix(ui): stabilize task loading and live feeds (#13095)
Coordinate initial conversation reveal, preserve message identity and reading anchors during live updates, and bound transcript reads with recoverable retries. Cover desktop/mobile navigation and rich task loading with actual-route browser tests.

Verified all Linux CI gates, 5,575 local UI tests, eight layout browser scenarios, and recorded native Codex walkthroughs. Greptile: 5/5; all review findings resolved.

Dotta 39206c0096 feat(ui): complete the task workspace (#12640)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The task page is the main place where people guide and review agent
work.
> - Native runner events already project into the existing task chat on
the lower stack.
> - The larger task workspace must support those events without breaking
direct adapters.
> - Legacy questions, final replies, empty transcripts, and classic
controls must keep their behavior.
> - This pull request completes the provider-neutral task workspace
experience.
> - The benefit is one coherent task surface for native and direct
execution paths.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #12639.
Refs #12617.
Refs #12352.

**Subsystem affected**

Task chat, task detail, side panels, interaction forms, and transcript
presentation.

**Problem or motivation**

The task page does not provide one complete workspace for live activity,
plans, questions, queued guidance, files, and documents. Earlier native
UI work also exposed compatibility risks in legacy question and reply
paths.

**Proposed solution**

Add the task workspace components and provider-neutral protocol
presentation. Keep runner-only controls behind runtime facts. Preserve
all direct-adapter composer, transcript, interaction, and finalization
behavior.

**Alternatives considered**

A separate runner page would duplicate task behavior. Replacing legacy
transcript logic would create unnecessary adapter regressions.

**Roadmap alignment**

This work supports the unified task experience and the Cloud and Sandbox
agents milestone.

## Stack

- Base PR: #12639.
- Lower PR: #12638.
- This PR contains only its 119-file UI delta against
`runner/remote-wss-transport`.
- The next stack PR adds administrator and observability controls.

## What Changed

- Added a reusable task workspace side panel for files and documents.
- Added provider-neutral cards for tools, plans, questions, protocol
activity, and progress.
- Added queued guidance and richer composer state.
- Added compact and expanded interaction presentation.
- Added live activity, thinking, usage, recovery, and final reply
presentation.
- Added document annotations and task deep links.
- Added bounded question validation and response handling.
- Preserved native runner event projection from master.
- Preserved legacy channel-less replies and explicit final reply
precedence.
- Preserved direct-adapter and classic-interface controls.
- Did not change server execution selection, Rust code, migrations,
workflows, or `pnpm-lock.yaml`.

## Verification

- GitHub Actions will run UI tests, repository tests, typecheck, build,
browser tests, security, and policy gates.
- Tests cover active, settled, empty-transcript, interaction,
queued-message, plan, question, file, document, and classic-interface
states.
- Compatibility tests cover direct adapters and native runner projection
together.
- Local tests were not run. The requested verification policy uses
GitHub Actions for this series.
- `git diff --check runner/remote-wss-transport...HEAD` passes.
- The delta contains 119 UI-only files.

## Risks

- This is a large task-page change.
- Most files are new focused components and tests.
- Shared transcript code keeps the lower native projection and legacy
direct-adapter fallbacks.
- Runner-only controls use adapter and runtime facts.
- No execution path or rollout flag changes in this PR.

cbe6395cc5 fix(ui): task chat composer clears on send; align carets and composer with thread (#11772)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The task detail view uses a chat-style thread: agent turns, activity
phases, and a message composer.
> - A colleague's UX review found three defects: the composer draft
stayed visible after send, disclosure carets in turns and status pills
were misaligned, and the composer was not horizontally aligned with the
thread column.
> - These defects make the chat surface feel unpolished and cause
confusion about whether a message was sent.
> - This pull request fixes all three defects with small, targeted UI
changes and adds regression tests for each.
> - The benefit is a chat surface that behaves and aligns like users
expect from a messaging UI.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this. Description of the underlying
problems:

**What happened?**

Three UI defects in the chat-style task view:

1. After a user pressed send, the composer kept the draft text until the
server round-trip finished. Fast typers could see stale text and doubt
the message was sent.
2. The disclosure carets on collapsed agent turns and the caret inside
the status pill did not share one alignment axis. They rendered at
different x-offsets and sizes.
3. The composer container had different horizontal padding than the
thread column above it, so the input box did not line up with the
message bubbles.

**Expected behavior**

The composer clears the instant a send starts. All disclosure carets sit
on one vertical axis with one size. The composer's left and right edges
align with the thread column.

**Steps to reproduce**

Open any task in the chat-style task view. Type a message and press
Enter — watch the composer text. Collapse and expand agent turns —
compare caret positions. Compare the composer's horizontal edges with
the message bubbles above it.

## What Changed

- `TaskChatComposer.tsx`: clear the draft synchronously when a send
starts instead of after the request resolves; restore the draft if the
send fails.
- `TaskChatTurn.tsx` and `TaskChatStatusPill.tsx`: use one shared caret
alignment (size, x-offset) for turn disclosure and status pill carets,
with supporting utility styles in `ui/src/index.css`.
- `TaskChatThread.tsx`: align the composer container with the thread
column padding.
- Added or updated unit tests in `TaskChatComposer.test.tsx`,
`TaskChatTurn.test.tsx`, `TaskChatActivityPhase.test.tsx`, and
`TaskChatThread.test.tsx`.

## Verification

- Run `pnpm vitest run
src/components/task-chat/TaskChatComposer.test.tsx
src/components/task-chat/TaskChatActivityPhase.test.tsx
src/components/task-chat/TaskChatTurn.test.tsx
src/components/TaskChatThread.test.tsx` in `ui/` — 4 files, 64 tests,
all pass.
- Manual: open a task in the chat view, send a message, and confirm the
composer clears immediately. Collapse/expand turns and confirm the
carets align. Compare composer edges with the thread column; the
alignment fixes were also pixel-verified with screenshots during local
review.

## Risks

- Low risk. All changes are render-layer only; no server or data
changes.
- The composer now clears optimistically. If a send fails, the draft is
restored, so no user text is lost.
- Caret alignment uses shared CSS utilities; visual regressions would
show in the existing component tests and in any screenshot diff.

## Model Used

- Implementation: OpenAI Codex CLI coding agent (Codex model family,
agentic tool use) via Paperclip's Codex adapter.
- Review, verification, rebase, and PR preparation: Anthropic Claude,
model id `claude-fable-5` (extended thinking, tool use), via Claude
Code.

0ee0543e5b feat(ui): refine the chat-style task workflow (#11263)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The issue detail view is the main place where people read work and
guide agents.
> - The chat-style task view needs clear messages, controls, properties,
and document feedback.
> - Dense metadata and disconnected controls make active work harder to
scan.
> - This pull request refines the existing chat-style task workflow
across desktop and mobile layouts.
> - The benefit is a clearer issue thread with faster access to the
controls that guide work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The change improves the chat-style issue detail view that was introduced
in [#10606](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/10606) and
expanded in
[#10707](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/10707).

**Current behavior**

The issue thread spreads task controls across the page. Agent-turn
metadata competes with the message content. Document annotation comments
use inline placement that limits the document reading area. The mobile
composer can overlap the bottom navigation.

**Proposed behavior**

The issue view keeps the thread focused on message content. It moves
supporting controls into the properties area, adds searchable
assignment, restores the sub-task tree, docks document comments in a
side gutter, and keeps the mobile composer clear of navigation.

**Reason and benefit**

People can scan active work faster and find task controls without
leaving the issue. The layout also gives documents and mobile
conversations more usable space.

**Breaking changes**

None. The change updates presentation and interaction behavior in the
existing issue UI.

## What Changed

- Refined task-chat message spacing, metadata, agent bubbles, and
composer alignment.
- Added searchable assignment and restored sub-task navigation in the
properties pane.
- Moved document annotation comments into a right-side gutter.
- Kept the mobile composer above the auto-hiding bottom navigation.
- Added and updated focused component tests for the changed
interactions.

## Verification

- `pnpm check:token-gates`
- `TZ=UTC pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/components/InlineEntitySelector.test.tsx
src/components/IssueDocumentAnnotations.test.tsx
src/components/IssueProperties.test.tsx
src/components/TaskChatThread.test.tsx src/pages/IssueDetail.test.tsx`
- The token gates report 3/3 clean.
- The focused test run passes 124 tests in 5 files.
- Visual snapshot baselines were not updated. This follows the
`doc/design/DECISION-SHEET.md` entry "Per-change snapshot verification
demoted to dormant (Jul 13 2026)."

## Risks

- The changes affect several related issue-detail layouts. A browser
review should cover desktop and mobile widths before merge.
- The monitor-row test formats time in the host timezone. The
verification command sets `TZ=UTC` to match CI.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex with GPT-5. The context-window size is not exposed in
this environment. The model used reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and GitHub tools.
