DottaandPaperclip 6c1a75da49 feat(connections): make AgentMail a default connection with inline setup (#14772)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Connections give agents access to external services.
> - AgentMail needs both a saved key and an inbox assigned to the agent.
> - Chat requests offered a setup link instead of an inline card and
could treat a saved key as complete.
> - Inbox setup also hid address conflicts behind a generic server error
and a separate review step.
> - This pull request makes AgentMail a default connection, adds the
inline card, reduces setup to two steps, and shows conflicts beside the
address.
> - Shared native dropdown styles also give every caret a consistent
inset.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

AgentMail requests in chat did not show a usable inline connection card.
Manual setup required extra screens, ignored saved account keys, and
could trap new-address setup in a locked inbox dropdown. Agent selectors
omitted the avatar from the selected value. A taken address could
produce an HTTP 403 from AgentMail and appear as an internal server
error. Native dropdown arrows also touched the right edge of their
fields.

**Expected behavior**

Make AgentMail available as a default connection. Ask for the API key
inline, with a direct link to its provider page. Default human access to
the company and agent access to the requesting agent. Resume the agent
only after an assigned inbox is active. Manual setup should ask for an
agent and email address, then finish. Address checks should run as the
user types. Taken addresses should show clickable alternatives. A domain
dropdown beside the name should prefer a verified custom domain. Setup
should suggest authorized saved AgentMail keys and show agent avatars in
the picker and selected value.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Ask an agent to connect AgentMail when it has no assigned inbox.
2. Check that an inline API-key card appears and links to the provider's
API-key page.
3. Open AgentMail setup, choose an agent, and request an address that is
already taken.
4. Correct the inline error, refresh, and finish setup with the same
request ID.
5. Inspect native dropdown carets in light, dark, disabled, and
right-to-left states.

Uses the bounded provider-error parser merged in #14768. Related work:
#13256 introduced AgentMail; #14725 expanded connection search.

## What Changed

- Stop recurring email queries for tasks that have no email thread.
Share the query between the thread provider and activity view. Keep
email-task updates and invalidation-based discovery.
- Make AgentMail available without the experimental chat setting. Keep
the catalog, setup and management routes, agent Channels tab, task email
feed, receiving worker, and agent tools available by default. Other
experimental chat providers stay gated.

- Make the email address and copy icon a single clickable action with
the shared Copied! confirmation. Add View inbox linking directly to the
matching AgentMail console inbox, with the address encoded as one URL
path segment.

- Reorganize inbox Settings around the copyable email address, usage
instructions, and receiving status. Move reconnect credentials into a
disclosure and separate the Disconnect action. Add production Settings
stories for active, paused, unassigned-address, revoked, webhook,
long-address, mobile, and reconnect states. Show repair controls when
the inbox has an error. Keep usage instructions tied to an active inbox
with an address.

- Add AgentMail channel intents and an inline key field with the direct
API-key URL.
- Keep setup and retry state tied to the interaction. Require an active
inbox for completion. Preserve company and agent access checks.
- Reduce manual setup to agent selection and email selection. Put the
domain dropdown beside the address and default to a verified custom
domain. Preserve explicit choices across reloads. Keep receiving
settings under Advanced options.
- Check the initial address and edits after a 350 ms pause. Abort
superseded requests and ignore stale responses. Show clickable
suggestions and retain known creation conflicts across reloads.
- Add a company-scoped, manager-only address check using the saved
credential. Search the visible inbox list instead of fetching an
uncreated inbox: live AgentMail retains negative lookups that can break
subsequent access-key creation. Unlisted addresses remain unknown;
creation is authoritative.
- Suggest labeled saved AgentMail keys in both manual setup and the
inline card. Filter by company, provider, active credential, and
current-user grants on the server. Prefer an account key and preserve
the selected key or an explicit new-key choice across refresh. Use
verified scope metadata and bounded concurrent checks for legacy keys.
Never return secret values.
- Catch an inbox-only key before the email step. Allow its existing
inbox only after an explicit choice. Recover old locked drafts at the
key picker. Save the replacement key before retiring an empty draft,
then use a new setup URL so refresh preserves the switched account; stop
if cleanup fails. Preserve already allocated addresses and their
original accounts.
- Use the shared AgentSelect in email setup. Show the canonical agent
avatar in each option and the selected value, including other consumers
of the shared component. Add regression coverage for legacy and current
Lucide agent-mention icon formats.
- Start each catalog Add connection with a fresh setup identity. Honor
Finish setup's exact draft/account/address instead of resuming an
unrelated browser draft. Return Cancel and Done to Connectors and Email
settings to the inbox. Group the task/thread explanation in a How it
Works card.
- Route AgentMail catalog removal through the email inbox control API,
including unfinished drafts. Refresh both the catalog and inbox views.
- Render each inbox management tab separately. Access uses the saved
account grants and agent controls; Conversations and Activity use the
shared persisted email feed. Activity lifecycle actions use the email
API. Reconnect returns to inbox Settings. Conversation failures show a
retry instead of a false empty state. Email delivery recovery stays in
the task.
- Map documented provider address conflicts to a field error. Preserve
actionable messages for other failures.
- Preserve non-secret draft fields across refresh, scoped to the
requested agent. Never save API keys in browser storage. Resume partial
inbox creation with the original agent, address, and request ID.
- Show an already-created address with explicit retry and new-address
recovery instead of locked inputs. Preserve the original inbox and
resumable draft when choosing another address. Distinguish runtime-key
404 errors and log safe provider status/operation/code.
- Apply final agent access once within email setup authorization for a
new account whose original installs are unchanged. Preserve later
permission edits and reused account installs. Support in-place retry of
progress loading.
- Let a failed inline setup change keys after retiring an empty draft.
Persist its replacement setup identity without storing secrets. Recover
a server-saved account when refresh interrupts the save response, while
preserving intentional account changes.
- Render the production setup in Storybook and add error, recovery, and
mobile states.
- Inset native select carets in shared CSS. Preserve custom icons,
listboxes, keyboard behavior, and forced-color controls.
- Add browser regression coverage and an AgentMail Product E2E case with
persisted-state and rendered-card evidence.

## Verification

- Full `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, `pnpm check:token-gates`, and
`git diff --check` passed after the default-availability change.
- All 485 focused tests passed. These cover setup, management, catalog
and route gates, connection intents, email authorization, Cursor
execution, and the OpenAPI contract. All 39 email integration tests run
with the experimental chat setting off.
- The shared polling change passed four behavioral tests, UI typecheck
and build, and token gates.
- `tests/e2e/agentmail.spec.ts` passed with the actual server setting
off. This full-stack browser test uses simulated provider responses. It
covers catalog entry, saved keys, editable address and domain controls,
creation, conflicts, retry, all management tabs, clipboard feedback, the
provider link, and task email rendering.
- In the live local browser, Add connection reached the editable email
step with the saved account key. The verified custom domain was selected
by default. Both domain choices worked. The existing inbox Settings page
remained available. Both active inboxes completed new mail checks with
the setting off. No new provider inbox or email message was created for
this pass.
- Earlier live provider acceptance covered creation on a verified custom
domain, Finish connecting on the reported draft, successful mail checks
after refresh, and catalog removal of disposable draft and active
connections. Clicking the email address copied the exact address and
showed Copied!. View inbox opened the same inbox in AgentMail’s console.
No email messages were sent.
- Production setup and Settings Storybook builds and interactions
passed. Settings states include active, paused, unassigned, revoked,
webhook, long-address, mobile, and reconnect. Receiving and
revoked-access stories had zero accessibility violations.
- Full local `pnpm test:run` on an earlier revision completed with
14,709 passing, 87 skipped, and four transient failures. All four failed
cases passed in focused reruns without product changes. That serial full
local command was not repeated after each follow-up. The latest-head
full CI suite is the final test gate.
- CI found an obsolete browser assertion that hid every channel when the
flag was off. Updated it to keep AgentMail and the Channels surface
visible while preserving the GitHub chat route gates. All 11 provider
browser tests passed locally after scoping the Channels selector to the
agent sidebar. Two initial local attempts stopped at temporary Postgres
initialization. The passing run used a separate disposable database on
the existing local Postgres server; it was removed after the test.
- Updated the remaining sidebar and aggregator discovery assertions for
default AgentMail availability. Ordinary task fixtures now return no
email thread. All 128 sidebar/task-page tests and all 42 aggregator
tests passed locally.
- Latest head `b42bb4cd5cc9f2d01a99ab8026832d5a956ea85f`: full CI
passed, with 54 successful checks including Snyk and two intentional
Storybook skips. The CI run is
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37020833647. A
fresh Greptile review scored 5/5 with no unresolved threads. Live model
evaluations and inbound/outbound email delivery were not run.

## Risks

- AgentMail no longer needs experimental opt-in. Setup still requires a
human to connect an account and assign an inbox. Inline setup creates an
inbox after a human submits a new or saved key. Company access, agent
access, inbox assignment, and completion checks remain enforced.
- AgentMail read APIs cannot prove global address availability. The
visible-list check is bounded to 100 entries and cannot see inboxes
outside the key’s scope. The UI reports this limitation, suggests
alternatives without claiming they are free, and keeps final creation
conflicts inline. Lookup outages show an error without preventing the
authoritative creation attempt.
- Native select CSS affects the whole app. Custom-icon selects and
multi-row lists are excluded. Forced-color mode keeps the browser caret.
- Saved-key discovery uses stored verified scope metadata and checks
authorized legacy credentials concurrently within a shared three-second
deadline. Provider outages mark legacy choices unavailable; users can
still enter another key. Final use rechecks authorization and provider
access.
- No database migration or transport default change. Live connection
remains the default.

d6fa1fd1ef feat(ui): streamline account menu profile access and add Invite shortcut (#14480)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Humans work in teams, so Paperclip has a multi-user system with
logins, profiles, and a company sidebar.
> - The account menu in the lower-left corner of the sidebar is the main
entry point for a user's own settings.
> - The account menu spent half of its rows on "View profile" and "Edit
profile". Users open these rows rarely.
> - The account menu had no fast path to invite a new member. The invite
flow is different on a self-hosted instance and on Paperclip Cloud.
> - This pull request removes the two profile rows, makes the header a
link to the profile, adds an "Edit profile" button on the profile page,
and adds an "Invite" row.
> - The benefit is a shorter account menu that keeps profile access and
gives users with the invite permission a one-click path to invite
people.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this change. The description below
follows the enhancement template.

Refs #14060. That earlier pull request holds the first two commits and
the first Greptile review. It closed when the branch got a new name to
remove an internal ticket id. All Greptile findings from both reviews
are fixed in this branch.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The account menu in the sidebar (`SidebarAccountMenu` and its
`.production` variant) and the user profile page at `/u/:userSlug`.

**Subsystem affected**

ui/ — React + Vite board UI

**Current behavior**

The account menu shows the user's picture and name at the top. Below
them, the menu shows "View profile" and "Edit profile" rows, then the
other rows. The header is not a link. The menu has no row to invite
people. On a self-hosted instance, the user must open Company settings,
then Members, then the Invites tab. On Paperclip Cloud, the user must
open the Members page and use the Cloud People link there.

**Proposed behavior**

The account menu does not show "View profile" or "Edit profile". The
picture and name at the top of the menu are a link to the user's own
profile page. The profile page shows an "Edit profile" button when the
viewer looks at their own profile. The account menu shows an "Invite"
row with the same `UserPlus` icon as the company menu. On a self-hosted
instance, the row opens the Members page on the Invites tab, and shows
only to boards that hold the `users:invite` grant (company owners and
admins, instance admins, and local boards). On Paperclip Cloud, the row
opens the People settings for the current stack, and shows only to the
owner or admin of the stack, the same rule the Members page uses.

**Reason and benefit**

Users open their profile rarely, but the two rows took half of the menu.
Inviting people is a common task, but it needed three clicks and a
different path on Cloud. The new menu is shorter, keeps profile access
in one tap on the header, and gives one "Invite" entry point on both
hosting modes to the users who can invite.

**Breaking changes**

None. Routes, API responses, and settings keys do not change. The
profile page and the invite pages keep their current URLs.

## What Changed

- `SidebarAccountMenu.tsx` and `SidebarAccountMenu.production.tsx`:
remove the "View profile" and "Edit profile" rows. Make the picture and
name header a link to the user's profile. Add the "Invite" row after
"Settings" in the streamlined menu and first in the production menu.
- Header structure: `master` added a staging commit SHA link under the
email in the same header. The profile link is now a stretched overlay
behind the header content, so the SHA anchor sits beside the email and
the header has no nested anchors.
- `ui/src/lib/userProfileLinks.ts` (new): build the profile path from
the user id first. The profile endpoint treats the id as the one unique
slug, so two members with the same display name get different links.
Name and email are a fallback only when the session has no id.
- `ui/src/hooks/useCloudInviteUrl.ts` (new): read the Cloud stack
portfolio and return the People settings URL only when the current stack
role is owner or admin. This is the same rule as the Members page.
- `ui/src/hooks/useCompanyInviteAccess.ts` (new): read the current board
access snapshot and report whether the board may invite people to the
selected company on a self-hosted instance. Local boards and instance
admins pass. Other boards need an active owner or admin membership, the
roles that carry `users:invite`. This follows the same client-side gate
pattern as `ToolsAdminGate` and the run ledger. The server stays
authoritative.
- Invite row visibility: the row is hidden when the operator hides
`company.members` or `company.invites`, and until the health check
resolves. On self-hosted instances, the row is hidden until the board
access snapshot loads and when the board cannot invite. On Cloud, the
row is hidden when no People URL can be built. The in-app Invites tab is
never a fallback on Cloud, because it drives a different flow.
- `ui/src/pages/UserProfile.tsx`: add an "Edit profile" button that
links to `/company/settings/instance/profile`. The button shows only on
the viewer's own profile and follows the `instance.profile`
hidden-settings gate.
- Tests: extend `SidebarAccountMenu.test.tsx`; add
`userProfileLinks.test.ts`, `UserProfile.test.tsx`, and
`useCompanyInviteAccess.test.ts`.
- No documentation references the removed menu rows, so no docs change
is needed.

## Verification

Run the focused tests from the `ui/` directory:

```bash
pnpm vitest run src/components/SidebarAccountMenu.test.tsx src/hooks/useCompanyInviteAccess.test.ts src/lib/userProfileLinks.test.ts src/pages/UserProfile.test.tsx
```

- 52 tests pass in these four files. They cover the header link by user
id, the removed rows, the header overlay with no nested anchors, the
self-hosted invite target, the self-hosted permission gate (owner,
admin, instance admin, and local board see the row; an operator does
not, on both menu variants), the Cloud invite target with no
`target="_blank"`, the menu order, the hidden-settings gate on both
variants, the Cloud role gate (a plain member sees no row), the
no-fallback rule when Cloud stack metadata is missing, the staging
commit SHA link from `master`, and the own-profile-only "Edit profile"
button.
- `tsc -b` in `ui/` reports no errors in the changed files. The only
errors are pre-existing `@paperclipai/plugin-sdk/ui` resolution errors
in `PluginOrganizationSwitcher.tsx` from an unbuilt workspace package.

Manual steps:

1. Sign in and open the account menu in the lower-left corner. Confirm
the menu has no "View profile" or "Edit profile" rows.
2. Click your picture or name at the top of the menu. Confirm your
profile page opens and shows an "Edit profile" button.
3. Open another user's profile. Confirm the page shows no "Edit profile"
button.
4. On a self-hosted instance, as a company owner or admin, click
"Invite". Confirm the Members page opens on the Invites tab. As an
operator or viewer, confirm the menu shows no "Invite" row.
5. On Paperclip Cloud, as a stack owner or admin, click "Invite".
Confirm the Cloud People settings page opens in the same tab. As a plain
member, confirm the menu shows no "Invite" row.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change is limited to the UI and touches ten files.
- Users who know the "View profile" and "Edit profile" rows must learn
the new header link. The header has hover and focus styles to show that
it is a link.
- On self-hosted instances, the "Invite" row depends on the board access
snapshot from `/cli-auth/me`, which other gates in the UI already use. A
member with a custom `users:invite` grant but an operator or viewer role
does not see the row. That member can still use the Members page. The
row is a shortcut, not the only path.
- On Paperclip Cloud, the "Invite" row depends on the stack portfolio
query. When that query fails or the role is unknown, the menu hides the
row instead of sending the user to the wrong flow.
- Both menu variants change together, so a behavior difference between
them is not expected.

## Model Used

- Provider: Anthropic. Model: Claude Fable 5.1 (`claude-fable-5-1`).
- Run through Claude Code on the Claude Agent SDK inside a Paperclip
`claude_local` agent, with extended thinking and tool use (file edits,
shell, tests, GitHub API).
- The model wrote the code, the tests, and this description. A human
reviewed the pull request and requested the review fixes.

DottaandPaperclip 1b48e73e0b feat(ui): add secondary navigation for agent chat (#14706)
## Thinking Path

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

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

**Subsystem affected**

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

**Current behavior**

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

**Proposed behavior**

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

**Reason and benefit**

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

**Breaking changes**

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip d72389bee2 feat: add Browser Use Cloud connector and live task browsers (#14627)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The Apps gateway gives agents governed access to external tools.
> - Browser Use Cloud can run browser work, but a tool result alone does
not let a person watch or take over.
> - A task needs a durable browser session, a visible viewer, and
recorded costs.
> - This pull request adds a Browser Use Cloud v4 connection and
interactive browser tabs on tasks.
> - People can follow the work, interact with the page, and retain the
browser after the agent finishes.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

Agents need governed access to Browser Use Cloud. People need to see and
interact with the same browser from the task. A browser must remain
available after a run finishes and appear at the correct point in the
task feed.

**Proposed solution**

Add a native REST connection for the v4 API. Bind each session to its
company, task, agent, and credential grant. Open its interactive viewer
in the task side panel. Record provider costs as financial events. Use
`browser-use-cloud` as the app and connector key. Keep its skill with
the connector and deliver it only with authorized connection tools.

**Alternatives considered**

A v3 MCP connection would expose tools without the v4 lifecycle
integration. An external viewer link would leave the task. A fixed
viewer size would prevent pages from responding to changes in the task
pane.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the governed Apps gateway and Connected Apps roadmap. It
uses the existing task, grant, secret, approval, and financial records.
The work was requested by the maintainer. A search found no duplicate
Browser Use connector PR or issue.

## What Changed

- Add the Browser Use Cloud app, brand asset, API-key connection, and
profile settings under the `browser-use-cloud` key.
- Bundle the `browser-use-cloud` skill with the connector. Keep it out
of global `skills/` discovery. Deliver it only with authorized task/run
connection tools. Remove retired connector skill keys from runtime
overlays and preserve unrelated browser skills.
- Expose seven v4 tools through the governed gateway and deliver them to
native and CLI agents.
- Persist sessions, browsers, runs, event and recovery cursors, shutdown
leases, and cumulative cost accounting. Recover uncertain paid starts
without replaying them.
- Enforce task ownership, credential grants, approvals, revoked access,
and budget limits.
- Add interactive task browser tabs and compact chronological feed
entries. Retain the viewer across tab switches and keep visible idle
browsers open.
- Add debounced automatic viewport fitting, standard size presets, and a
viewer ownership lease.
- Add lifecycle, authorization, accounting, viewport, UI, and Storybook
coverage.
- Add an idempotent database migration after the current master
migration. Preserve deployed migration hashes. Migrate pre-release Cloud
connection and financial keys without replacing grants, credentials, or
browser history.
- Document provider behavior, live acceptance results, and the lack of
documented passkey forwarding.

## Verification

- Full workspace typecheck and production build pass on the updated
branch.
- Token gates, brand asset validation, module boundaries, and migration
ordering pass.
- Cloud tests verify global skill exclusion, authorized task/run
delivery, unassigned agents, disabled connections, revocation, adapter
isolation, and secret exclusion. The existing AgentMail connector
assignment test also passes.
- Migration replay runs twice against existing browser work and
financial records. It preserves the records and avoids duplicate costs.
- The focused provider, app catalog, OpenAPI, connection gateway, and
migration regression suites pass. Recovery coverage includes lost
replies, process crashes, provider rejection, and browser arrival
acknowledgement.
- All 54 checks pass on `2974b5f03641ad0cea3c941d8c02579316fa8c92`,
including the full test matrix, browser E2E shards, build, typecheck,
security, and release canary. Two optional Storybook jobs are skipped.
- Greptile is 5/5 on the same commit, with zero unresolved review
threads. The corrected review uses the actual master-to-head diff.
- The local `pnpm test:run` started and was stopped after the full CI
matrix passed. It did not complete locally; the full-suite result above
comes from CI.
- Earlier live acceptance used an isolated company with a capped
provider credential. The agent opened paperclip.ing, the embedded viewer
accepted navigation, and the same browser stayed available after
completion and tab switches.
- The local Storybook build passes. Stories cover the panel, footer,
feed entries, settings, lifecycle failures, and viewport modes with an
offline viewer fixture.

## Risks

- Browser Use charges for hosted work. Provider caps and local budget
checks reduce exposure; reported costs can arrive after work completes.
- Viewer and CDP URLs grant access to the browser. The server validates
and restricts them. They are excluded from agent results and durable
event data.
- Runtime resizing of v4 agent browsers uses a provider option confirmed
by live testing but absent from its published agent schema. Resizing
during a click may invalidate coordinates. Fixed presets remain
available.
- Viewport ownership is process-local and resets on restart. The
lifecycle and accounting records remain in the database.
- The original intermittent embedded-viewer stall has not been fully
diagnosed. A bounded reconnect and active-session recovery cover the
observed failure paths.
- Live tests did not cover every revocation, approval, rate-limit, or
restart case. Deterministic integration tests cover those paths. Passkey
forwarding is not claimed.
- Unknown create outcomes keep the credential available for cleanup.
Run-list absence cannot prove a paid POST was rejected, so recovery
stays pending until it can identify provider work.

Devin Foley f38b5693f6 fix: always enable keyboard shortcuts (#14643)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The web UI has keyboard shortcuts for the inbox, task lists, cases,
and task detail, plus global shortcuts such as `c`, `/`, `?`, `[`, and
`]`
> - Shortcut enablement was an instance-wide General setting until
#14141 moved it to a per-user preference that defaults to off
> - The move did not carry the old instance value over, so every
existing user lost shortcuts on upgrade and had to find a new toggle
under Profile settings
> - A toggle that only turns off a standard, input-safe feature costs a
setting, a database column, two API routes, and a React context for
little benefit
> - This pull request removes both the instance setting and the personal
preference and enables keyboard shortcuts for every signed-in user
> - The benefit is one less thing to configure, no silent loss of
shortcuts on upgrade, and less code to maintain

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14141 (the change that introduced the personal preference).

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Keyboard shortcuts in the web UI stay off unless each user turns them on
in Profile settings.

**Subsystem affected**

Web UI shortcuts, Profile settings, instance general settings, the
`/api/auth/preferences` routes, and the `user` table.

**Current behavior**

Shortcuts default to off per user. #14141 moved the toggle from Instance
settings → General to Profile settings and did not carry the old
instance value over. Users who had shortcuts on lost them after the
upgrade and had to find the new toggle.

**Proposed behavior**

Keyboard shortcuts are always enabled for every signed-in user. There is
no instance setting and no personal preference. Shortcuts already ignore
key presses inside text inputs and modal dialogs, so an opt-out is not
needed.

**Reason and benefit**

Fewer settings, no silent loss of shortcuts on upgrade, and removal of a
database column, two API routes, a query hook, and a React context that
existed only to gate this feature.

**Breaking changes**

`GET` and `PATCH /api/auth/preferences` are removed. `PATCH
/api/instance/settings/general` no longer accepts `keyboardShortcuts`;
that schema is strict, so the key now returns 400.
`instance.general.keyboardShortcuts` is no longer a valid
`PAPERCLIP_HIDDEN_SETTINGS` key; the parser ignores unknown keys with a
warning.

## What Changed

- Removed the Keyboard shortcuts section from Profile settings, the
`useUserPreferences` hook, `queryKeys.auth.preferences`, and
`authApi.getPreferences` / `authApi.updatePreferences`.
- Removed `GeneralSettingsContext`. The inbox, legacy inbox, task list,
legacy task list, cases, and task detail pages no longer gate their key
handlers.
- Removed the `enabled` option from `useKeyboardShortcuts`. The app
shell always registers the global shortcuts.
- Removed `GET` and `PATCH /api/auth/preferences`, their OpenAPI
entries, and the `currentUserPreferencesSchema` /
`updateCurrentUserPreferencesSchema` validators.
- Removed `keyboardShortcuts` from `InstanceGeneralSettings`, the
general settings zod schema, the settings service defaults, and
`HIDEABLE_GENERAL_SECTIONS`.
- Added migration `0289_drop_user_keyboard_shortcuts`, which drops
`user.keyboard_shortcuts`.
- Updated `AGENTS.md`, `doc/SPEC.md`, `doc/SPEC-implementation.md`, and
`docs/deploy/environment-variables.md`.
- Parsed the stored general settings row with
`instanceGeneralSettingsSchema.strip()` in the feedback vote path, so a
retired key left in the row cannot reset the sharing preference to
`prompt` and overwrite the stored choice.
- Kept every bare global shortcut (`c`, `?`, `[`, `]`, `/`) out of open
modal dialogs in `useKeyboardShortcuts`; only `/` had that guard before.
- Updated the affected tests and added a Profile settings test that
asserts the toggle is gone, a hook test for the modal dialog guard, and
a feedback service regression test for the retired-key case.

## Verification

- Typecheck passes for `@paperclipai/shared`, `@paperclipai/db`
(including the migration numbering and safety checks),
`@paperclipai/server`, and `ui`.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/auth-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/sentry.test.ts` → 119 passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/components/Layout.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/ProfileSettings.test.tsx ui/src/pages/IssueDetail.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/Inbox.test.tsx ui/src/pages/Cases.test.tsx
ui/src/hooks/useKeyboardShortcuts.test.tsx ui/src/pages/Agents.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/InstanceGeneralSettings.test.tsx` → 286 passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/settings-visibility.test.ts`
→ 16 passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/hooks/useKeyboardShortcuts.test.tsx` → 7
passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/feedback-service.test.ts`
(embedded Postgres) → the new retired-key test passes with the fix and
fails without it.
- Manual: sign in with no settings changed, open the inbox, press `j`
and `k` to move the selection, press `?` to open the cheatsheet. Open
Settings → Profile and confirm there is no Keyboard shortcuts section.

## Risks

- The migration drops a column. It uses `DROP COLUMN IF EXISTS`, and the
column has no readers after this change. If you roll back to a build
from before this PR after the migration has run, re-add the column
first: `ALTER TABLE "user" ADD COLUMN "keyboard_shortcuts" boolean
DEFAULT false NOT NULL;`. The older build's ORM selects that column when
it loads users.
- Any external client that still sends `keyboardShortcuts` to `PATCH
/api/instance/settings/general` receives a 400. No in-repo client does.
- Stored `instance_settings.general.keyboardShortcuts` values are
stripped on read and ignored.
- Users who never turned the toggle on now get shortcuts. The handlers
skip text inputs, contenteditable regions, and modal dialogs, so typing
is unaffected.

DottaandPaperclip 270afd2fb8 feat(ui): show running commit in staging account menu (#14410)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The account menu shows the signed-in user's identity.
> - Staging users need to know which server commit is running after a
deploy.
> - The health endpoint already returns that commit, but the menu does
not show it.
> - This pull request adds the short commit below the email on staging
hosts.
> - Users can open the menu to check a deploy without opening deployment
tools.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The account menu on staging instances.

**Current behavior**

The menu shows the user's name and email. It does not show the running
server commit.

**Proposed behavior**

On `*.staging.paperclip.app`, show `SHA 8751e2d` below the email. Use
the current `/api/health` commit. Show the full SHA on hover and link to
the commit on GitHub. Refresh the health query when the menu opens. Hide
the label on other hosts and when commit metadata is unavailable.

**Reason and benefit**

A user can confirm which commit a staging instance runs after an
automatic deploy.

**Breaking changes**

None. The server already returns the commit field.

Refs #14060 for related account-menu work. This change adds deployment
information only.

## What Changed

- Add the existing health response commit field to the UI type.
- Share the staging host check and a separate health query across both
account-menu variants. A menu refresh failure leaves the access gate
health state unchanged.
- Show a short SHA below the email. Link to the full commit on GitHub
and include the full SHA in its accessible name and hover title.
- Document the staging label and cover staging hosts, other hosts,
missing metadata, refresh on reopen, and request failure isolation.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/components/SidebarAccountMenu.test.tsx` —
24 tests passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm build` — passed. The UI build and typecheck also passed again
after review fixes.
- Full test matrix — passed on the latest commit in
[CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36447810742).
The local `pnpm test:run` was stopped before completion after CI
finished the same suites. The focused local tests, full local typecheck,
and full local build passed.
- Browser shard 6 passed on one rerun. Its first attempt lost part of
the draft text in the existing attachment-receipt reload test. No code
changed for the rerun.
- Rendered the real account menu in a local browser fixture with a
staging hostname condition and mocked health response. Confirmed the SHA
fits below the email in the dark menu.
- Greptile review — 5/5, all review threads resolved.
- Manual check after deployment: open the menu on a staging host and
compare the SHA with `/api/health`. Open the menu again after a deploy
to refresh it. Confirm the label is absent on production and localhost.

## Risks

- Low risk. Each menu opening on staging can make one additional health
request.
- The host check applies to `*.staging.paperclip.app`. Other staging
domains will need an explicit update.
- The label identifies the running server commit. It can briefly show
cached data while the request completes.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6. The exact model variant and context window are not
exposed in this session. Used code execution, repository inspection, and
browser inspection.

DottaandPaperclip 890d11137f fix(ui): register artifact tabs without opening the panel (#14193)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Tasks keep agent outputs in the Artifacts tab.
> - An output can arrive while the user writes a message or reads a
document.
> - Opening the side panel on arrival interrupts that work, especially
on mobile.
> - This pull request adds the Artifacts tab without opening the panel
or changing the selected tab.
> - Users can open their outputs when they choose.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
New agent outputs opened the task side panel or mobile drawer. An
arrival could also replace the selected document or workspace file.
Existing outputs did not always register an Artifacts tab.

**Expected behavior**
Register one Artifacts tab for existing and new outputs. Keep a closed
panel closed. Preserve composer focus, the selected tab, and document or
file links.

**Steps to reproduce**
Open a task from the inbox. Close its side panel. Enter a message draft.
Create an agent output in that task. The panel must stay closed and the
draft must keep focus. Open the panel to see the Artifacts tab. Repeat
on a mobile viewport.

**Paperclip version or commit**
Base commit: 0f14d2612.

Related work: #11226 and #11551.

## What Changed

- Register existing outputs and later arrivals without opening the panel
or selecting Artifacts.
- Keep open documents, workspace-file links, and the tab launcher
unchanged.
- Handle each document deep-link request once so query refreshes
preserve later manual selection.
- Deduplicate attachment and work-product arrivals. Preserve dismissed
tabs across repeated refreshes.
- Add desktop and mobile browser regression tests. Update artifact
presentation documentation.

## Verification

- The closed-panel regression failed before the fix in unit and
real-browser tests.
- All 158 focused UI tests pass, including the original deep-link cases.
- UI typecheck and token gates pass on this branch. Full typecheck and
production build passed on the passive-arrival candidate before the
existing PR integration.
- The two local desktop/mobile browser cases pass against real
API-created artifacts.
- Desktop and mobile staging checks pass on the combined staging
candidate. Artifact arrival preserved a closed pane, draft text, and
composer focus. Explicitly opening the pane showed the Artifacts tab.
- All 56 current-head check contexts are successful or intentionally
skipped at `17ad904455b9378552f07a6f6e51402c6d164688`, including full
typecheck, test shards, build, and browser suites. Greptile is 5/5 on
that commit with no unresolved review threads.
- The interrupted local broad validation was resumed; the remaining
serialized 64 files and 1,035 tests pass. Local database startup
failures passed after stale test resources were released.

## Risks

- Outputs no longer reveal the panel automatically. Users open the panel
to view them.
- The document request guard must still allow a new explicit deep link.
The regression tests cover this case.
- There are no API or database changes.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, GPT-6, with code editing, shell tools, GitHub tools, and
browser verification. The exact serving model ID and context-window size
are not exposed in this session. Earlier implementation model metadata
is not available.

DottaandPaperclip d423fc4411 fix(ui): use large mobile selector modals (#14250)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The new task dialog lets an operator assign work on a phone.
> - The mobile picker used fixed coordinates inside the Radix wrapper.
> - iOS Safari already makes fixed coordinates relative to the visual
viewport.
> - The old code added the visual viewport offset a second time.
> - This pull request removes the second offset and gives the mobile
wrapper full viewport geometry.
> - The benefit is a visible picker and search field when the iOS
keyboard opens.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

The assignee and project pickers could move outside the visible screen
in the new task dialog on iOS.

**What did you expect to happen?**

The picker and its search field must stay visible above the bottom edge
and the software keyboard.

**Steps to reproduce**

Open the new task dialog on an iPhone. Select Assignee or Project. The
picker can move outside the visual viewport when Safari pans the page.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The problem exists after the change in PR #13343.

**Deployment mode**

The problem affects the board UI in local and authenticated modes.

Refs #13343

## What Changed

- Use visual viewport local coordinates for the new task dialog.
- Give the mobile Radix popper wrapper full viewport geometry.
- Render both shared selector components as large, titled mobile modals.
- Keep desktop selectors as anchored popovers.
- Cover the new-task assignee, new-task project, composer assignee, and
generic searchable selector in Storybook.
- Add iPhone-sized Storybook states for the assignee and project
pickers.
- Update viewport tests for the corrected coordinate model.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/components/NewIssueDialog.test.tsx
src/components/InlineEntitySelector.test.tsx`
- `pnpm check:token-gates`
- Playwright used the iPhone 14 device profile. All mobile modals were
inside the 390 by 664 CSS viewport.
- Each mobile modal was `x=16, y=16, width=358, height=632`.
- A desktop check kept the anchored popover at `width=320, height=211`.

## Risks

- Low risk. The CSS only changes narrow mobile viewports.
- The full-screen popper wrapper does not receive pointer events. The
picker still receives pointer events.

> For core feature work, check [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md) first and
discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. See `CONTRIBUTING.md`.

DottaandPaperclip 8781f06a87 feat(connections): enable MCP aggregators by default (#13964)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip helps people manage AI agents for work.
> - Connections let those agents use external services with explicit
access rules.
> - Zapier, Arcade, Composio Connect, and Executor already have setup
and runtime support.
> - Their experimental switch still blocks discovery and setup by
default.
> - This pull request removes those gates and the Settings toggle.
> - Users can connect these providers without enabling an experiment.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13755. Refs #13941.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
Apps browsing, inline setup, and agent connection search for the four
MCP aggregators.

**Current behavior**
An instance must enable the MCP aggregators experiment before users or
agents can start setup.

**Proposed behavior**
All four providers are available by default on local and managed
instances. Old stored and managed values still parse but cannot disable
them.

## What Changed

- Remove the aggregator gates from Apps, inline setup, server setup, and
agent search.
- Remove the Settings toggle and its UI hook.
- Retain the old setting key only for upgrade compatibility. Normalize
it to true and ignore managed overrides, as Apps already does.
- Replace opt-in fixtures with default-on coverage. Test old false
values, all four setup flows, provider choice, and the removed toggle.
- Update current connector guidance and remove the opt-in from the
runner acceptance fixture.

## Verification

- 306 focused tests passed across eight files: shared remote MCP
contracts; server remote MCP lifecycle, aggregator fallback, settings
normalization, and managed overlay; UI Apps browsing, setup, and
experimental settings.
- Server and UI TypeScript checks passed.
- UI token gates and `git diff --check` passed.
- The full local suite was not run, per the maintainer's instruction.
All 54 CI checks passed; two checks were skipped. One unrelated
workspace-preview readiness timeout passed on one failed-shard retry.
- The setup fixtures use simulated MCP responses. This change does not
claim new live provider acceptance.

## Risks

- Existing instances now show all four providers, even if the old flag
was false. This is intentional.
- External provider choice, credentials, company isolation, agent
grants, and tool policies still apply. Showing a connector does not
authorize an external account.
- No data migration is required. The compatibility key keeps old managed
configuration documents valid.
- Historical Zapier live acceptance remains incomplete in the existing

DottaandPaperclip 18dac1e1ef feat(connections): add experimental memory providers and remote MCP access (#13942)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Connections give agents governed access to external tools.
> - Agents need durable memory across tasks and execution environments.
> - Mem0, Zep, Supermemory, Cognee, and Honcho provide hosted memory
tools.
> - This pull request adds their setup flows behind an experimental
toggle.
> - It also delivers assigned MCP tools through the native remote Codex
runner.
> - Operators can connect a provider once and use the same governed
tools locally or in Daytona.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

The Apps catalog lacks a complete set of memory providers. Remote native
Codex agents also need access to assigned managed MCP tools without
receiving provider credentials.

**Proposed solution**

Add five memory connectors behind the disabled-by-default Experimental
memory connectors setting. Use the existing connection setup and
permissions UI. Default their tools to Allowed. Preserve company
boundaries, operator permission changes, provider scopes, and audit
attribution.

**Alternatives considered**

Direct provider credentials in each sandbox would duplicate setup and
bypass the managed gateway. The remote runner instead uses its existing
protocol channel to call the gateway on the server.

**Roadmap alignment**

This maintainer-requested experiment supports the Memory / Knowledge and
Connected Apps roadmap areas. It adds provider connections without
introducing a separate memory UI. Related connector authoring
documentation is tracked in #13692; no duplicate memory-provider
implementation was found.

## What Changed

- Add provider definitions, official branding, and the experimental
setting for all five providers.
- Use OAuth for Zep and Supermemory, API credentials for Mem0 and
Honcho, and a bundled Cloud API bridge for Cognee with no runtime
downloads or subprocesses.
- Default memory tools to Allowed and classify destructive actions
explicitly.
- Fix personal remote credential resolution and propagate provider tool
errors.
- Relay assigned managed MCP tools to remote native Codex through the
runner protocol. Recheck current authority for each call and rotate
stale tool contracts.
- Add 21 Storybook states and complete OAuth walkthrough fixtures.
- Document provider research, sanitized tool inventory, and live local
and Daytona proof.

## Verification

- Passed workspace typecheck: `pnpm -r typecheck`.
- Passed production build: `pnpm build`.
- Full local `pnpm test:run`: 13,273 passed, with failures from
process/readiness timeouts under parallel load. Reran all 16 affected
suites with one worker: 456 passed, leaving two macOS `/var` versus
`/private/var` path assertions. Both passed with `TMPDIR=/private/tmp`.
No test failures remain unverified. Latest-head remote CI passes all 54
checks (two optional Storybook jobs skipped). Greptile is 5/5 with no
unresolved findings.
- Latest Cognee gateway regression: 71 passed, including public
deployment without a runtime host and immediate recovery after a
provider error. Bundled bridge tests: 25 passed.
- Browser setup and real agent tasks exercised all five providers. Mem0,
Cognee, Zep, and Honcho have successful store/retrieve proof.
- Supermemory now has scoped read/write consent. Local storage and real
Daytona write, document read, and semantic recall passed; indexing
completion was verified before claiming success.
- All five providers were exercised through a real Daytona sandbox and
its native runner MCP relay. Provider credentials remained on the
server. The final bundled Cognee bridge also passed a fresh Daytona
store/recall run. All disposable sandboxes were removed and verified
absent after testing.
- Storybook is rebuilt and contains the experimental toggle, catalog,
setup, permissions, and error states. The Zep and Supermemory access
steps advance correctly.

## Risks

- Provider OAuth scopes and plan limits remain independent of Paperclip
tool permissions. An Allowed tool can still be rejected by the provider.
- Providers can queue memory indexing; save acceptance does not prove
that semantic recall is ready.
- Remote tool contracts must stay synchronized with current connection
authority. Regression tests cover revocation and stale contracts.
- This change has no database migration. Existing connections remain
usable when the experimental catalog toggle is disabled.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 Astra (`gpt-6-astra`), with reasoning, repository
edits, code execution, and browser automation. The exact context window
size is not exposed in this session. Live acceptance agents used
`gpt-5.6-sol`.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 94a0aa7726 fix(ui): hide workspace isolation controls for managed hosts (#13907)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Workspace isolation keeps task checkouts separate.
> - Managed hosts can enable isolation and hide its experimental
toggles.
> - Project, task, and routine forms still expose choices that override
that policy.
> - This pull request adds an operator visibility key for those
controls.
> - Workspace access stays available, and execution keeps its existing
policy.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Operator control over workspace isolation settings in the UI. This
follows the settings list cleanup in #13905.

**Current behavior**

Hiding the experimental isolation toggles leaves project policy editors,
task selectors, routine and pipeline overrides, recovery actions, and
workspace configuration visible.

**Proposed behavior**

Set `PAPERCLIP_HIDDEN_SETTINGS=workspaces.isolation` to hide these
controls. Keep workspace navigation, status, files, and runtime access.
Hide experimental toggles separately. Instances that do not set this key
keep their controls.

**Reason and benefit**

Users on managed hosts should use the host's isolation default. A hidden
form must not submit a stale draft that overrides it.

## What Changed

- Add the UI-only `workspaces.isolation` key to the shared visibility
registry.
- Hide project workspace policy, task and subtask selectors, routine and
pipeline overrides, and isolated re-issue actions.
- Hide the workspace Configuration tab and redirect direct links to
workspace issues.
- Omit hidden new-task and routine overrides. Keep explicit task/subtask
workspace launch context, saved policies, and automatic branch values
for workspace routine runs.
- Wait for the health visibility policy before showing controls. Keep
workspace access and all execution APIs available.
- Document the key and test visibility, form payloads, deep links, and
unchanged workspace access.

## Verification

- All 52 CI checks pass on `50cc770d33` (two expected skips). The branch
is mergeable. Greptile is 5/5 with no unresolved comments.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed.
- `pnpm build` passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` passed.
- Targeted UI checks passed: 346 tests across 14 suites, including
hidden project/task controls, stale task drafts, routine branch
defaults, recovery actions, configuration deep links, and workspace
access.
- Shared settings-visibility tests passed: 11 tests.
- `pnpm test:run` was run and stopped after reproducing five failures in
unchanged server tests: two `chat-channels.integration` cases
(linked-request provenance and direct external-chat finals) and three
`company-skills-service` cases (runtime refresh, concurrent download,
and explicit update). The earlier local run for #13905 showed the same
failures. The full local suite is not claimed green. Targeted UI/shared
checks pass. All PR CI shards, including the affected chat and skills
suites, pass.
- Reviewed the diff for secrets, private links, and run artifacts.

## Risks

This key changes UI visibility only. It does not reject API calls or
change feature values. Operators must enable isolation and its default
through their existing policy mechanism. Older app versions ignore the
new key until upgraded. Removing the key restores the controls. No
schema changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 (Codex), with reasoning, repository tools, and test
execution.

DottaandPaperclip e8c8ba3c19 feat(apps): add experimental MCP aggregator connectors (#13755)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Its tool gateway applies company access rules and approval controls
to connected apps.
> - MCP aggregators expose many apps through one provider endpoint.
> - Each aggregator needs its own credential, catalog, grants, and
lifecycle in Paperclip.
> - This pull request adds independent Zapier, Arcade, Composio Connect,
and Executor setup with a common Access → Connect layout.
> - A default-off MCP aggregators flag lets operators opt in while we
complete provider acceptance tests.
> - Agents use the normal Paperclip permissions, Test screen, and
gateway after setup.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Apps, connection setup, shared contracts, and the remote MCP gateway.

**Problem or motivation**

Aggregator endpoints need clear provider setup and correct MCP sessions.
Generic setup does not explain each provider's authentication or broad
execution tools. Provider approval must preserve the original execution
instead of replaying a write.

**Proposed solution**

Add four separate connectors behind Settings → Experimental → MCP
aggregators. Start with human and agent access, then connect the
endpoint and read its tools. Enable tools by default. Use the existing
Permissions and Test screens after setup. Keep legacy Composio API-key
and child connections intact.

**Alternatives considered**

A shared connection for all providers would mix credentials and access
rules. Separate provider-specific permission and test screens would
duplicate existing controls. Vercel Connect is outside this change.

**Roadmap alignment**

Extends the existing MCP Tool Gateway & Apps capability and the
Connected Apps roadmap area. This work was requested and reviewed by the
maintainer.

Related work: #11894, #12630, #12632, #12634, and #12906 concern the
legacy Composio broker. #13102 also covers remote MCP pagination. This
change preserves the broker path and adds initialized sessions, response
matching, and provider resume handling alongside pagination.

## What Changed

- Add branded setup and interactive Storybooks for Zapier, Arcade,
Composio Connect, and Executor. Use the existing access controls and
normal action tests. Do not request a connection name or action choices
during setup.
- Add the default-off `enableMcpAggregators` flag to settings, managed
feature metadata, the catalog, and setup guards. Hidden connections keep
running. Legacy Composio connections remain unchanged.
- Reuse the vault, grants, policy, and catalog models. Support OAuth
discovery, bearer tokens, custom headers, and credential-bearing URLs.
Add no database tables or migrations.
- Initialize and retain Streamable HTTP sessions by connection and
effective credentials. Read paginated catalogs and match streaming
responses to request IDs.
- Classify unfamiliar aggregator tools as writes despite upstream
read-only hints; only exact reviewed read capabilities enter the
read-only allowlist. Legacy Composio child behavior is preserved.
- Preserve provider authorization links and execution IDs. Support
Executor approve/resume, decline, and cancel without automatic replay of
uncertain writes.
- Preserve Off and Ask first choices during refresh and reconnect. Allow
new tools and retire removed tools. Keep agent access updates atomic and
preserve an empty agent selection.
- Document connector UX rules, provider branding sources, and live
acceptance results.
- Stabilize the existing Sentry release fixture after its repeated CI
failure by reusing one module mock; production Sentry behavior is
unchanged.

## Verification

- Final head `d11781970`: [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/35633534900)
passed, including broad typecheck, test shards, build, and E2E. All 54
checks pass; 2 optional checks are skipped. Greptile is 5/5, Security
Scan passes, and all review threads are resolved.

- Passed 27 focused connector Vitest checks and 18 connector-only
Storybook browser checks before the flag change. All 85 stories rendered
at desktop and narrow widths.
- Passed 5 connector lifecycle/server checks and 7 selected flag checks
after adding the flag. The latter cover settings, managed defaults,
cached catalog visibility, and all four setup routes.
- Review fixes passed 13 risk/handoff/lifecycle checks, dedicated
session-expiration and transport regressions, 13 selected
connector/gateway CI cases, and 10 selected setup/reconnect UI cases. A
real Composio connection-list call also succeeded through the refreshed
UI on `9ab115f71`.
- UI and server TypeScript checks passed. UI build, Storybook build,
token gates, and diff whitespace checks passed during implementation.
- Real browser and real Paperclip agent tests passed for Arcade,
Composio, and Executor. Tested action permissions, denied agent access,
reconnect, disconnect, and isolation. Tested Arcade catalog
additions/removal and Executor provider approve/resume, decline, and
cancel.
- Zapier live acceptance is incomplete. Its dedicated provider server is
configured, but its credential-copy dialog returned an empty clipboard
through browser automation. No live Zapier action is claimed.
- The three isolated Sentry release cases pass after the CI fixture fix.
- Local verification is deliberately narrow at the maintainer's request.
The full local suite, recursive typecheck, and repository-wide build
were not run. CI provides the broader checks.

## Risks

- Shared MCP transport changes affect other remote MCP servers. Protocol
fixtures cover initialized sessions, streaming response matching,
pagination, and isolation.
- Broad execution tools remain broad permissions. The provider governs
actions inside those tools.
- Provider handoff links are retained briefly in memory. After a server
restart, a one-time link may require reopening the provider dashboard.
Paperclip does not replay the original call.
- Zapier remains unproven live. Custom-header imports and self-hosted
endpoints have fixture coverage rather than a separate live account for
every variant.
- Turning the experimental flag off hides setup; it does not revoke
existing credentials or stop existing connections.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository tools, shell
execution, and browser automation. The exact runtime model ID and
context-window size are not exposed in this session. A separate
Anthropic-backed Paperclip agent performed live gateway acceptance
tasks.

1ef3b08714 feat(ui): integrate agent personas across the app (#13171)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A stable agent persona is useful only when the same identity appears
across the app.
> - Lists, task messages, selectors, and activity feeds need inexpensive
static avatars.
> - Onboarding and agent headers need a larger character with
expressions and pointer tracking.
> - This pull request connects the persona foundation to those existing
views and preserves onboarding draft assignments.
> - Full-page stories and Linux checks make the placements and
performance contract reviewable.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

Agents need a stable visual identity in lists, tasks, onboarding, and
configuration. External tools also need an image URL for that identity.

**Proposed solution**

Assign each agent a permanent palette from a fixed ClipLab character
library. Store the assignment on the agent. Render and cache preset PNG
URLs on demand. Use static images in dense views and one animated
character in larger placements.

**Alternatives considered**

A generated image bundle requires a separate asset build. A live
renderer in every avatar adds unnecessary work in large lists. Arbitrary
uploaded images do not provide the requested shared character system.

**Roadmap alignment**

This improves agent identity across existing control-plane views. It
preserves agent permissions, company boundaries, and status labels.
ROADMAP.md has no separate ClipLab persona milestone.

Related approaches: #2422 adds configurable image URLs and DiceBear
generation; #5578 adds optional uploaded avatars. This work uses a
fixed, versioned character library and preset URLs.

## What Changed

- Replace agent icons with static persona images across lists, the
sidebar, org charts, tasks, comments, selectors, activity, and dashboard
views.
- Put one animated character in the agent header. Let it follow the
pointer across the page, with reduced-motion and touch fallbacks.
- Add larger padded characters to agent creation. Keep the palette
stable across draft refreshes and connection retries, then reveal it
after success.
- Pass appearance through shared projections rather than fetching each
agent separately.
- Add real full-page Storybook examples for the agent list, overview,
task, dashboard, new-agent dialog, and connection page.
- Add Linux screenshot, clipping, density, and 500-avatar performance
checks.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and token gates pass on the rebased
tree. Persona lifecycle tests pass.
- The rebased feature passes 38 Linux screenshot/performance checks,
including both display densities, corner pointer positions, and the
no-WebGL/no-live-download contract for 500 avatars.
- The final Linux persona suite passes all 38 visual, lifecycle,
density, and full-page checks using the standard Storybook configuration
and real on-demand avatar endpoint.
- Final local focused verification: 45 avatar/native-recovery tests
pass; UI identity/routine tests, typecheck/build, token gates, and
Storybook build pass.
- Current-head CI passes: full workspace/server tests, all serialized
server groups, typecheck/release checks, build, canary validation, and
end-to-end shards. The build passed after retrying a native-runner
concurrency-test failure; its three targeted cases also pass locally.
- Manual inspection covered stable identities in the app, header
placement, full-page mouse tracking, onboarding size, and task/dashboard
placements.


### Screenshots

Linux captures use synthetic Storybook fixtures. Full-page captures use
reduced motion. The live character, mouse tracking, and disposal are
checked separately.

</details>

## Risks

- This PR depends on #13170, the persona foundation. Merge the
foundation first, then retarget this PR to master.
- Many placements change from icons to character silhouettes. Human
avatars and authoritative agent status labels retain their existing
behavior.
- Only one character can render live per view. Reduced motion,
hidden/offscreen content, touch input, and renderer failures use the
defined fallbacks.
- The full-page stories use fixture data. They do not contact a real
company or complete real provider sign-in.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family. The exact model identifier and context
window are not exposed in this session. Used code editing, shell
execution, browser inspection, and Linux visual testing.

DottaandPaperclip d49f168381 fix: publish sandbox files on legacy and native runners (#13493)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents must publish generated files so users can inspect their
results after a sandbox stops.
> - Legacy sandbox bridges blocked attachment listing and could not
carry multipart binary uploads through the queue transport.
> - The native runner has a separate verified file registration path
that needs the same durable result.
> - This pull request repairs legacy binary transport, makes native
download receipts explicit, and reveals new outputs in the task
Artifacts tab.
> - Users can open generated files from either runner without a
transport flag change.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13355 for the existing native file publication path. Related
filename fixes: #2615 and #4788. Related sandbox persistence work:
#13376. This change repairs attachment delivery through the existing
API; it does not add workspace persistence.

**What happened?**

The upload helper first lists task attachments to avoid duplicates. Both
legacy bridge allowlists rejected that GET request with 403. A direct
multipart upload also failed: the queue bridge accepted only JSON,
excluded attachment uploads, and converted bytes to UTF-8 text. Enabling
HTTP/2 alone did not fix the missing listing route. These failures
occurred before attachment storage.

**Expected behavior**

Both runners can publish a workspace file, register its work product,
bind it to a response, and return a working download. The file stays
accessible after sandbox deletion. A new output opens the task Artifacts
tab. The agent receives accurate errors and decides how to retry or
report a failure.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run a legacy agent in Daytona with the duplex bridge disabled.
2. Invoke the bundled upload helper with Bash on a PNG or PDF.
3. Repeat with the duplex bridge enabled.
4. Register the same file through the native runner with generic API
tools disabled.
5. Retry registration, delete the sandbox, and compare the downloaded
bytes with the original file.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The failing baseline was `f2c5e54dc`. This branch is rebased onto
`6cfe4acff`.

**Deployment mode**

Source checkout with a local API and real isolated Daytona sandboxes.

## What Changed

- Allow authenticated attachment listing, upload, and content download
through both legacy bridge transports.
- Add optional base64 body encoding to queue envelopes. Preserve the
existing UTF-8 contract when the encoding field is absent. Decode binary
bodies before forwarding them.
- Preserve multipart headers. Bound raw bytes, encoded envelopes, and
in-flight reservations. Retain timeout and uncertain-write behavior.
- Preserve helper deduplication and return structured uncertain-write
failures. Document explicit Bash invocation in live skills.
- Add attachment IDs and content/download paths to native registration
receipts. Reuse verified local and remote file reads, attachment
storage, work-product registration, and response binding.
- Preserve Unicode upload filenames and provide a valid
Content-Disposition header.
- Open the task Artifacts tab when new stored outputs arrive, including
a closed desktop panel or mobile drawer. Deduplicate upload and
registration events by object ID. Preserve manual selection on
refetches, edits, and panel remounts.
- Remove task artifact filters, the company Artifacts footer link, and
the unassigned group heading and timestamp.

### Screenshot

![Generated images and a document in the task Artifacts
tab](https://pages.paperclip.ing/sandbox-file-delivery-2026-09-15/artifacts-tab.png)

This is the local display fixture. The image was generated separately
and published through the attachment and work-product APIs.

## Verification

- Post-rebase `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass.
- The post-rebase local `pnpm test:run` passed 12,369 tests before one
existing conversation reset test timed out; all 33 tests in that suite
pass when rerun with isolated test configuration. The aggregate command
stopped before its remaining groups. GitHub runs the complete suite in
separate shards.
- All [GitHub verification
checks](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/35017893350)
pass on `b66ac276dd3d5fc738a22ecea783400106a494d4`: 32 successful checks
and two configured skips. The native-session recovery assertion
initially raced its fire-and-forget Sentry report; all 13 tests pass
locally, and the same-commit CI rerun passes all 170 suites (3,079
tests).
- Live post-rebase Daytona: all three file-delivery tests pass. They
cover the real Bash helper with the queue bridge, the helper with
HTTP/2, and native `register_deliverable` with generic API tools
disabled.
- Daytona cases cover PNG/PDF bytes, spaced and Unicode names, duplicate
registration, response binding, authorization controls, and
byte-for-byte downloads after sandbox deletion.
- Local focused coverage includes transfer bounds, malformed encoding,
interrupted transfers, remote path containment, and native file
verification. The attachment route suite passes all 32 tests, including
an eight-case filename-header matrix for Unicode and special characters,
inline and forced downloads, and full and partial responses.
- Browser verification confirms image previews, persisted downloads,
automatic Artifacts selection, and preserved manual selection after
edits and reloads. Desktop/mobile component coverage passes. The latest
UI cleanup passes its 10 affected tests and token gates.
- Coverage limit: the Daytona tests call the real helper and native
registration path directly. They do not replay a complete model-led
image-generation task through the browser.

Live command (requires a configured Daytona credential):

```sh
PAPERCLIP_FILE_DELIVERY_DAYTONA=1 pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/file-delivery-bridges.test.ts
```

## Risks

- Binary queue bodies use more memory because base64 adds encoding
overhead. Transfer and process limits must remain aligned.
- An interrupted write can have an unknown result. The bridge reports
this state and preserves stable retry identities.
- New artifacts intentionally change the active task tab. Existing
history and repeated updates must not take focus again.
- Transport flag defaults, server authorization, frozen skill snapshots,
and completion policies remain unchanged. No schema migration is
required.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 728f7185f6 feat: add native in-app announcements with persistent dismissal (#13403)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Self-hosted boards need a way to show occasional product
announcements.
> - An app release should not be required to publish or withdraw a card.
> - Native card controls keep publishing consistent; the hero can use a
static image or isolated HTML/CSS animation.
> - This pull request renders a validated JSON feed with native
components.
> - It stores dismissals per account on each instance, so a closed card
stays closed across companies and browsers.
> - Named staging feeds let authors test content before production
publication.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Board application shell, announcement delivery, and user preferences.

**Problem or motivation**

Operators need a small, optional announcement card. Users need reliable
dismissal state. Authors need to test remote content without changing
the production feed.

**Proposed solution**

Add one non-modal AnnouncementWell. Fetch validated JSON and
content-addressed media through the instance server. Keep card controls
native, with optional sandboxed HTML/CSS animation in the hero. Use
stable announcement IDs for dismissal, an explicit empty manifest and
quiet 404 handling. Provide a staged publishing helper and isolated
test-drive guide.

**Alternatives considered**

Hosting the entire card as a page would move navigation and dismissal
into remote content. This change limits HTML to a scriptless, isolated
visual hero and keeps controls native. Browser-only storage would lose
dismissals across browsers, so the instance stores account preferences.

**Roadmap alignment**

ROADMAP.md has no overlapping announcement feature. A GitHub title
search found no related announcement pull requests. This work implements
a maintainer-requested feature.

## What Changed

- Add shared feed types, strict validation of every object, supported
routes, expiration and version checks.
- Add a board-only current-feed API, constrained media proxy, and
idempotent dismissal API. Store the first dismissal and its company
audit entry in one transaction.
- Cache upstream data for one hour. Use conditional requests, request
deduplication, response limits, public destination checks, and a
three-second deadline. Treat a remote 404 as an empty feed with a
fifteen-minute retry cooldown.
- Keep announcement visibility stable when focus moves to browser chrome
or another app pane; only tab visibility starts a return check.
- Add a responsive native announcement card. Respect onboarding, dialogs
and toast placement. Sync pending dismissals across tabs and retry after
reconnect or return.
- Add idempotent migrations for dismissals and validated publication
IDs, design-guide examples, static and animated Storybook examples, and
focused tests. The publication registry supports offline retries without
accepting caller-invented IDs.
- Add HTML/CSS animated heroes with static posters, automatic playback,
reduced-motion handling, strict DOMPurify validation, an empty iframe
sandbox and CSP that blocks scripts/network resources.
- Add validated staging publication, content-addressed assets, an empty
production manifest, preview fixtures, and authoring/operator
documentation.

## Verification

- The preceding implementation passed 98 targeted
shared/server/publisher/route/OpenAPI/UI tests and 127 tests including
the master rebase. The playback-control removal passes all 21
announcement UI tests, covering the rendered sandbox, fallback, reduced
motion, dismissal and slow/stale state lookups. The preceding
shared/server tests cover HTML validation and response sandbox headers.
- The playback-control removal passes UI typecheck, production UI build,
Storybook build and token gates locally. Browser verification confirms
the animated card has only its dismiss button and two links, with no
page errors. The full canonical CI matrix passed on current head
`00e416431edb610861599d50490270bbd0f3c6b6`: 32 successful checks and two
optional Storybook deployment checks skipped. This run needed no
retries. Greptile reviewed this same head at 5/5 with no outstanding
findings.
- The local canonical general-server run passed 12,063 tests before
reporting embedded-PostgreSQL startup failures in an unrelated fixture.
All 31 tests in that fixture passed across isolated retries. The UI
group passed 6,219 tests and other workspace groups passed 3,201; two
CLI database-startup failures also passed individually. Serialized
server suites were verified by the full CI matrix rather than repeating
them locally. No source changes were needed for these environment
failures.
- The real S3/CloudFront staging manifest and both media asset headers
were verified. Production remains empty/unpublished. The guide
distinguishes the preview host's disabled edge cache from production
cache requirements.
- In the isolated test-drive, the animation visibly moves without
playback controls. A 390×844 browser viewport keeps the card above
navigation. Reduced motion makes no animation request. Both themes
render correctly and browser page errors are empty. Browser fault
injection verified that scripts cannot execute and CSS cannot make
network requests; a missing animation leaves its poster and controls.
- Refresh leaves the animated card visible. Closing it persists after
reload and the API returns null. Earlier live checks verified dismissal
across browsers, company-relative CTA navigation, modal
deferral/restoration, and new-ID eligibility after restarting the same
database.
- The deployed empty feed and a real remote 404 return HTTP 200 with
null from the board API, with a usable dashboard and no announcement
popup or browser warnings.
- Authoring documentation covers staging, animated HTML constraints,
test-drive, withdrawal, ID reuse and cache-refresh steps.

## Risks

- Animation supports self-contained visual HTML/CSS and inline SVG,
without JavaScript or external resources. A static image is required.
Older builds that do not recognize the optional animation field quietly
hide that unsupported feed.
- The default feed makes an outbound request from an instance when a
board is used. Operators can disable it. Requests contain no account
IDs, company data, cookies or interaction events.
- Feed publication and withdrawal can take about 65 minutes to reach
returning users because of CDN and instance caches. Expiration also
removes visible cards locally.
- Dismissals follow an account within one instance. No-login instances
share the existing local-board identity. Separate installations do not
share state.
- Both tables are additive. A unique key prevents duplicate dismissals;
the transaction prevents duplicate first-dismissal audit entries. The
publication registry retains only validated IDs. AGENTS.md and the
implementation spec document the required exception to company scope for
these instance-level records.
- Publication was limited to separate public staging prefixes on the
existing preview host. Production remains empty/unpublished. No AWS
policies or infrastructure were changed.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex. The exact runtime model ID and
context-window size are not exposed in this session. Capabilities used:
reasoning, code editing, shell execution, tests, browser interaction,
and tool use.

DottaandPaperclip d351e08dee fix(ui): stop Recent Tasks storage feedback across tabs (#13402)
Version recent-task snapshots separately from activity, reject stale cache updates, and publish only on query or membership changes. Migrate history into an isolated storage namespace while preserving restart retries.

Add regression coverage for conflicting caches, migration, comments, unchanged writes, and storage implementations on Node 24 and Node 26.

DottaandPaperclip ab15aff390 feat: add experimental persistent agent chat (#13284)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Conversations must use the same tasks, controls, and execution
history.
> - Users need an ongoing chat with an agent without managing task
properties.
> - Agents should clarify and plan work, then hand execution to assigned
project tasks.
> - This pull request combines the reviewed Agent Chat stack for one
squash merge.
> - The benefit is persistent conversation with normal task governance
and shared UI.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Task lifecycle, agent runtime tools, shared task UI, and browser/paid
runner tests.

**Problem or motivation**

Users need one persistent conversation with each agent. A separate chat
store or renderer would duplicate task behavior and bypass existing
controls.

**Proposed solution**

Use a task-backed chat per company, user, and agent. Reuse the task
composer and transcript. Clarify and plan in chat, then create assigned
project tasks with the relevant plan. Keep Agent Chat behind its own
disabled-by-default experimental setting.

**Roadmap alignment**

This implements the task-backed direction in [CEO
Chat](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/master/ROADMAP.md#-ceo-chat).
Related proposals: #2504 and #9693. Related request: #7981. The
maintainer requested one squash merge of the complete stack.

Consolidates the reviewed runtime
[#13281](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/13281), backend
[#13282](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/13282), and UI
[#13283](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/13283) layers
with this PR's E2E coverage. All four layers passed CI and received
Greptile 5/5 before consolidation. This PR targets master and includes
the complete feature.

## What Changed

- Add personal canonical chat tasks with ordinary company visibility,
immutable identity, idempotent first sends, and an idle waiting state.
- Process `/new` in queue order. Preserve history, release a chat pause,
and fence old provider context and delayed writes.
- Keep chat lifecycle rules across recovery, finalization, assignment,
task lists, and rollups.
- Support research and plan revision in chat. Hand plans to ordinary
assigned project tasks before execution starts. Reject new chat
subtasks.
- Add repository-aware project creation and discovery tools, including
multiple repository IDs and GitHub URLs, authorization, idempotency, and
durable project-created cards.
- Reuse task UI components for chat, with starred/recent agent
navigation and a separate `enableAgentChat` experimental flag.
- Add deterministic browser tests and 24 paid chat cells across four
Codex/Claude profiles, with validated reports and screenshots.
- Integrate current master recovery, controller lease, queued-message,
and task UI changes. Gate chat interruption and deferred promotion on
ownership/feature policy. Guarantee lease renewal and active controls
are stopped even if teardown fails.
- Preserve master's migration 0273 and generate chat migration 0274 with
idempotent replay for development databases.

## Verification

- Prior exact heads of all four PRs passed Linux CI, including build,
typecheck, general/serialized tests, and browser E2E. Each had Greptile
5/5 and no unresolved findings.
- Integrated local verification passed: full repository typecheck and
production build, Storybook build, token gates, 340 focused UI tests,
all 20 deterministic chat browser tests, two migration replay tests, 88
focused chat/queue/native/controller tests, and provider/session
regressions including real lease expiry. These include the three
lifecycle regressions for the final admission/teardown fixes; server
typecheck also passes. Current head
`1268eda16cc2af892055917e7292f068820be135` has Greptile 5/5 with no
unresolved findings and passing security scans. All final-head CI gates
passed: build, full Runner verification, typecheck/release registry,
canary, all general/serialized test shards, and all browser E2E shards
([CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34696739927)).
Local PostgreSQL startup contention required serialized retries; skipped
fixtures do not count as passing coverage.
- The earlier paid campaign passed all 24 chat cells and retained 32
screenshots:
[report](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-34648511170-1/index.html?report=agent-chat#suite-agent-chat).
It tested `abacbdfd2f660709ec37312cdb758284c8399d04`; it is prior
evidence, not a paid run of this integrated head.
- Manual check: enable Agent Chat in Experimental settings, open an
agent, clarify and revise a plan, then hand off to an assigned project
task. Stop a reply, send `/new`, and verify fresh context with retained
history. Disable the setting and verify agent shortcuts/new chat turns
are blocked.

## Risks

- Queue/session integration can affect retries and delayed writes. Tests
cover ownership, cancellation, reset boundaries, idle recovery, and
ordinary task behavior.
- Migration 0274 adds conversation fields and constraints. Replay is
idempotent and preserves existing development chat history.
- This combines the previously reviewed stack at the maintainer's
request. Agent Chat remains off by default and is separate from
Conference Room.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 Astra (`gpt-6-astra`), with reasoning, code
execution, browser tools, and parallel review. The exact context-window
size is not exposed in this session. Codex and Claude also ran as test
subjects in the linked paid campaign.

DottaandPaperclip 889947c238 feat: add experimental native chat connectors (#13038)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - People also ask agents for work in their existing chat tools.
> - Each external conversation needs one task and a current authorized
source.
> - Retries, Stop, and provider failures must not duplicate work or
expose private data.
> - The first chat PR establishes the opt-in provider and data
contracts.
> - This PR adds experimental channel integration and its durable
control plane.
> - Users can request work from connected channels and inspect delivery
in Paperclip.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13100 and #13092. This is the second of exactly two chat PRs.
Foundation #13100 is merged and changed 143 files. Runner prerequisite
#13092 is also merged. This PR changes 400 files against master, below
the 500-file review limit. It contains no wireframe images or HTML
galleries.

## What Changed

- Add native Slack, GitHub, Microsoft Teams, Telegram, and Discord chat
connections. Keep chat disabled unless the operator enables experimental
chat connectors. Preserve the production GitHub tool connection and its
normal setup path.
- Bind each provider bot identity to one immutable Paperclip agent. Bind
each admitted external conversation to one task. Paperclip owns tasks,
runs, permissions, and audit records.
- Add durable admission, per-conversation queues, questions, task
controls, progress, final replies, images, files, and delivery receipts.
Board comments remain internal unless explicitly sent to the channel.
- Check current identity, provider reach, resource access, credentials,
runtime generation, and exact source before provider effects. Keep
private responses private. Never send raw reasoning, private logs,
credentials, or tool arguments.
- Hold uncertain sends for explicit audited resolution. Make Board
Send-to-channel atomic and idempotent. Keep reconnect and setup
credentials in Paperclip secret storage.
- Preserve current native-runner authority across retries, lost
acknowledgements, and recovery. Keep immutable input and completion
contracts separate from newer user input. Receipt reconciliation cannot
launch a provider.
- Reconcile chat close/new ordering and provider-effect lock order.
Audit resource access changes in the same transaction. Submit only the
selected resource from each UI toggle so stale pages cannot undo
unrelated access changes.
- Drain Codex stdout before certifying process exit. Bound the drain
with the existing shutdown grace. Preserve observed terminal authority
without treating an undrained process as successful or reusable.
- Incorporate master `018ca5da` with its ACP Stop, mobile task layout,
runner packaging, and official lock changes. Preserve dedicated
chat-answer continuations in both directions when ordinary queued
comments are adopted after Stop.
- Fence late adapter readiness behind an earlier Stop for the same run.
Preserve verified cleanup for registered adapters. Handle single Stop,
agent pause, duplicate Stops, and failure release without creating a
false cancellation receipt.
- Incorporate master's `6dd48cad4` wake-queue extraction. Preserve exact
failed-chat retry authorization and lineage, retired question-source
suppression, and the block on generic recovery that would discard the
admitted source. Fresh deferred input retains its separate promotion
path.
- Incorporate master `2a05b5ed3` and its queue-admission extraction,
simplified transaction ports, and separate runner CI job. Preserve exact
durable receipts, actor separation, and dedicated-answer isolation
through the new module. A failed receipt insert rolls back the
accompanying deferred-wake merge.

## Verification

Current head: `afe19299d06253cb628eb398e91d1200ea9f412a`, incorporating
master `2a05b5ed3457ea33efd6895520447d1d97fe98d8`. The conflicts are
resolved. This successor fixes two test-harness boundaries exposed by
CI: per-case route-module preparation and actual durable-save completion
before intentional runner termination. Production code and all existing
test/turn deadlines are unchanged. [Exact-head Greptile
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/13038#issuecomment-5587250594)
is **5/5**, completed September 10 at 13:20:55 UTC, with no actionable
findings or open review threads. [Fresh exact-head
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34481724341)
passes **all 24 jobs**, including Build and both required aggregates.
Normal exact-head guarded merge was attempted and rejected by the
remaining branch approval policy: CODEOWNER review is required and no
human approval is present. Normal **squash auto-merge is enabled** as of
September 10 at 13:36:26 UTC. Requested CODEOWNERS have been notified;
no approval bypass or self-approval was used. Earlier-head results below
remain historical evidence, not qualification of this successor.

- Final exact-head Linux evidence: 995/995 chat integration cases; 36/36
agent-skills routes; 35/35 runner live-session cases, including real
process kill/resume; 1948 runner Vitest cases with three existing
benchmark/platform guards; 870/870 API-authority cases; and 104 browser
cases with four existing optional skips. Rust, conformance/replay, full
repository build, typecheck, canary, all server/workspace shards, and
both required aggregates pass with normal CI concurrency. Earlier failed
attempts remain recorded below.

- Latest test-only qualification: 141/141
route/permissions/authentication cases pass in separate cold forks, with
plain server types and independent review clear. The real-runner suite
passes 35/35, with plain runner types and independent review clear. A
controlled premature-save acknowledgement fails as expected; matching
ownership/effect/process evidence, rejected saves, real turn outcome,
test abort, and pre-kill liveness are covered. No local reproduction of
the original CI scheduling failure is claimed. The preceding [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34479680858)
passes 21/24 jobs, including all 995 Linux chat cases and browser
aggregate (104 passed, four existing optional skips); only Build, the
skills serialized shard, and the required verification aggregate fail.
Its exact-head Greptile review was 5/5. Both failed job logs are
retained.

- Final fixture qualification: all eight focused Discord cases and all
995 chat integration cases pass. The exact modal statement/PID is
observed before taking the real connection lock; the test then proves
its actual blocking relationship before mutation. Original SQL
execution, provider behavior, negative assertions, and 1s/15s timeouts
remain unchanged. Independent review is clear and test/production hashes
remain frozen. The preceding [CI
attempt](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34477184777)
passed 22 jobs, including Build/runner, typecheck, canary, all other
test shards, and browser aggregate (104 passed, four existing optional
skips); the two fixture failures and failed verification aggregate
remain recorded, not relabeled as a pass.

- Current queue-module composition: 308/308 recovery/batching/queue/Stop
tests; 995/995 full chat integration; 89/89 module tests, including real
PostgreSQL receipt-insert rollback; 24/24 workflow/module-boundary
tests; plain server and UI types. All four actual local process/ACP
browser paths pass in 1.4 minutes. Fresh databases, no skips or retries,
stable reviewed source hashes. The initial boundary failure is retained;
its no-op service wrapper was removed without changing recovery context
or weakening the check. An exploratory standalone test-directory
typecheck fails because its new upstream transformation config is not a
standalone typechecking project; standard CI/build does not invoke it,
and no configuration was weakened to suppress those diagnostics.

- The preceding head `e02a63d462ce5d47433b0aeb632bb6fd20aab1ba` passed
[all 24 CI
jobs](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34436462958)
and exact-head Greptile review at 5/5. Required CODEOWNER review
prevented its normal merge before master advanced again.

- Final extracted-module composition: 307/307 recovery, batching, queue
and Stop-control tests; 995/995 full chat integration; 49/49 module
tests including eight PostgreSQL adapter cases; and 19/19 issue-update
tests. Plain server types pass. All four actual local process/ACP
browser paths pass in 1.3 minutes. Fresh databases, no skips or retries
in these cohorts, frozen source hashes, and independent review clear.

- The preceding head `3e4e1c1c` passes [all PR CI
jobs](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34415826820),
including Build and required `ci / verify` and `ci / e2e`. Both the
original Rust failure and the previously load-sensitive lineage fixture
pass with unchanged Linux concurrency. Master advanced afterward and
required this reconciliation.
- Final master composition: 448/448 focused UI tests, 186/186 adapter
tests, 24/24 queue/control tests, and 11/11 packaging tests. Plain UI,
server, shared, and adapter types pass. Token gates and diff checks
pass. Independent server and UI reviews are clear.
- Stop-registration regression: both real-service cases fail against
exact `a95` source and pass with the fix. The full corrected
recovery/control suite passes 265/265. Duplicate-owner and failed-Stop
controls also pass. Plain server types pass. The readiness barrier
prevents provider startup without adding an acknowledgment to an already
terminal run.
- Final qualification strengthens terminal-field equality and repeats
both affected cases successfully on a fresh database. All four actual
local process/ACP browser paths pass again in 1.3 minutes, without skips
or retries. The final screenshot shows Cancelled, a paused subtree,
retained input, and no error toast.
- Two new actual-service regressions fail before the merge fix. They
prove that queued-comment adoption could consume a dedicated chat answer
or add unrelated input to that answer. The fixed four-case cohort
passes, including ordinary upstream continuation and adapter Stop
controls. Full recovery passes 257/257. All four actual local
process/ACP Stop browser flows pass in 1.4 minutes, without skips or
retries, on a fresh database.
- The unchanged runner artifact was qualified with 171/171 transport
tests, 870/870 API-authority tests, conformance 1/1, and replay 11/11.
Six controlled reader tests prove the exit/drain repair. Its local
serial Rust workspace passed 546 top-level cases plus two invoked
helpers; the later passing Linux CI supplies default-concurrency
evidence.
- Prior exact-source full chat integration passes 995/995. Settings
regressions cover concurrent stale pages, 501 destinations, pending
state, rejected updates, and explicit retry. These deterministic tests
do not prove live provider behavior.
- Retained failed attempts and their causes are in the [qualification
log](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/afe19299d06253cb628eb398e91d1200ea9f412a/doc/plans/chat-adapters/2026-09-08-chat-queue-and-webhook-repair.md).
The first merge adapter run timed out while macOS slept for 290 seconds.
Its unchanged repeat passed with a temporary sleep guard. No assertion,
deadline, or CI gate was weakened.

Review commands include `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest
run src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts
src/__tests__/issue-queued-comments-routes.test.ts` and `pnpm exec
playwright test --config tests/e2e/playwright.config.ts
tests/e2e/acp-stop-continuation.spec.ts`. Database suites require fresh
disposable databases. See the [browser
runbook](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/afe19299d06253cb628eb398e91d1200ea9f412a/doc/plans/chat-adapters/2026-09-04-chat-adapters-browser-e2e-runbook.md)
for provider setup and separate live acceptance steps.

## Risks

- This remains experimental. Deterministic tests and bounded live
evidence do not establish every provider feature, tenant, permission
layout, or media shape. Teams work-tenant qualification is still open.
- Failed and uncertain provider effects remain visible and can require
operator action. A transport receipt does not prove recipient
visibility.
- Native controller and runner artifacts must remain compatible.
Preserve lease ownership, terminal authority, source binding, and
quarantine during future changes.
- Access and audit rows commit together, but activity notifications
remain best-effort. This is not a new durable event outbox.
- The PR operation does not deploy a live server, replace its runner, or
change provider permissions. Remaining live qualification is documented
in the [temporary
handoff](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/afe19299d06253cb628eb398e91d1200ea9f412a/doc/plans/chat-adapters/2026-09-08-open-qualification-followups.md).

DottaandPaperclip 8cfd30fb07 feat(ui): add composer Stop and simplify task controls (#13104)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The task composer is where operators direct running agents.
> - Operators need to stop work without leaving the conversation.
> - Existing pause controls already hold task trees and interrupt both
runner types.
> - This pull request connects the composer to those controls and
removes repeated feedback.
> - Operators can pause work quickly and still queue messages while
agents run.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Task pause, resume, and cancellation in the task page and composer.

**Current behavior**

The empty composer cannot stop a running task. Task controls require
extra confirmation and reason text. Pause can show several notifications
for the task already on screen.

**Proposed behavior**

Show Stop while this task runs and the composer is empty. Text or
attachments switch it to Send. Stop and the menu use the same manual
pause hold. Parent pauses include descendants. Keep task cancellation in
the menu with a compact confirmation. Show one quiet pause row and gray
cancelled-run details.

**Reason and benefit**

Operators can interrupt execution with one click. Drafts and queued
messages keep their existing behavior. The UI waits for actual
termination, including native cancellation acknowledgment.

**Breaking changes**

No endpoint, schema, or task-status change. Pause no longer asks for
confirmation or a reason. Resume now honors the existing wake-agents
option. Task notifications are suppressed for the task and subtree
currently in view.

Related UI work: #8228 changes navigation and composer shortcuts. This
PR covers execution controls. No duplicate Stop-button PR was found. The
change improves existing controls and does not duplicate a roadmap
milestone.

## What Changed

- Add Stop, pending feedback, duplicate-click protection, and inline
errors to the composer.
- Share the pause mutation across the composer, active-run controls, and
menu.
- Poll affected runs after a pause request. Require native cancellation
acknowledgment.
- Remove pause confirmation and shared reason fields. Reduce cancel
confirmation to its task count and actions.
- Honor wake-agents for executable tasks only. Preserve the pause when
recovery review is needed; show partial wake failures inline.
- Preserve explicit legacy reconciliation decisions while their
continuation waits for dispatch.
- Suppress notifications for visible task trees. Use quiet pause and
cancellation feedback.
- Add interactive stories using production controls and native/legacy
end-to-end tests.

## Verification

- User reviewed the running feature and revised Storybooks in the
browser.
- Rebased focused checks passed: 295 original targeted tests, 161
updated route/page/notification/status tests, and 26 recovery
integration tests.
- Both isolated runner journeys pass on the final revision (1.7
minutes). Coverage includes queueing, parent and child interruption,
persisted holds, no automatic continuation, reconciled resume,
cancellation, terminal exclusions, and no Stop toast.
- Native coverage uses real runnerd with a deterministic provider
fixture. Legacy coverage checks actual process termination. Live
hosted-provider execution was not tested.
- Repository typecheck and build, Storybook build, and token gates
passed after rebase. The final server typecheck/build also passed.
- The broad local run completed its general-server stage with 7,219
passing tests, 48 skipped, and two failures from cached pre-fix source
and a stale native provider fixture. Both failed tests pass in fresh
final-head reruns after rebuilding the fixture; the script did not
continue to its later local stages. CI runs all test groups on the final
revision.
- Final revision: all 31 applicable CI checks passed; Storybook visual
regression was skipped by its workflow conditions. Greptile: 5/5, zero
unresolved comments.
- Review `Tasks / Execution Controls` in Storybook. Type and clear a
draft, stop a run, expand cancellation details, and test the menu on
desktop and mobile.

## Risks

- Stop pauses descendants for a parent task. This is the existing pause
contract.
- A held task can remain active if interruption fails. The UI shows an
error instead of claiming termination.
- Resume can start multiple assignees when wake-agents is selected.
Backlog, blocked, and terminal tasks stay excluded. Existing execution
reconciliation remains mandatory where required; Resume never invents
action-outcome evidence.
- Notification suppression uses the visible task and cached subtree.
Notifications for unrelated work remain enabled.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex. The exact runtime snapshot and
context-window limit are not exposed in this session. Used reasoning,
tool calls, code execution, and browser inspection.

5acf56658b feat(onboarding): first task opens as a chat with a chief of staff (#13068)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Onboarding ends by handing a new user to their first agent on a
seeded first task
> - Today the wizard asks for a mission up front, the UI composes what
the agent is told, and the agent starts running before the user says
anything
> - New users get a cold, ticket-shaped start, and nobody can edit the
agent's brief or persona without a code change
> - This pull request makes the first task a short chat: a four-step
wizard, a chief-of-staff persona, a greeting plus a two-option opening
card, server-owned markdown texts, and no run until the user answers
> - It also gives question cards one consistent action row (Cancel /
Skip / Next), makes agent hires idempotent within a run, and turns the
Paperclip Runner flag on by default for self-hosted instances
> - The benefit is a first run the user steers, with texts a board
operator can edit as markdown

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this change. The feature request
fields follow.

Related PRs and issues:

- Refs #11043 — an earlier draft of the first-task onboarding
experience. This PR supersedes it.
- Refs #11280 — a report about the onboarding first-task route test.
This PR extends that test file.

### Subsystem affected

Onboarding wizard, the seeded first task and its texts, task-chat
question cards, agent hiring, and the instance experimental settings.

### Problem or motivation

The onboarding wizard collects a mission through two extra steps and a
questionnaire. The UI then composes the first agent's instructions and
the first task description from those answers. The first task wakes the
agent at once, so the agent runs and posts before the user types a word.
Board operators cannot change the greeting, the brief, or the persona
without editing TypeScript. Question cards in chat behave differently
per adapter, and a single-select pick submits on click. A misread hire
response could create a duplicate agent that the creating agent cannot
remove.

### Proposed solution

Reduce the wizard to four steps and stop the UI from authoring agent
texts. Move the greeting, the brief, the chief-of-staff persona, and the
opening question into markdown and JSON files that the server loads at
runtime. Seed the persona onto the first agent through an explicit hire
marker. Do not wake the first task until the user answers the opening
card or types. Give every question card the same Cancel / Skip / Next
actions. Add an experimental toggle that switches the single-task
proposal between one confirmation card and a plan document with a
checkbox card. Make agent hires idempotent within a run.

### Alternatives considered

- Keep the mission questionnaire and feed it into the brief. Rejected:
the agent asks better questions in chat, and the wizard gets shorter.
- Keep the first task open-ended with a plain composer. Rejected: a
two-option card gives the user a clear first move.
- Derive the plan-document behaviour from the user's intent only.
Rejected in favour of an explicit experimental toggle so operators can
choose.
- Key the "pick does not submit" behaviour off the presence of a submit
label. Rejected: several adapters set a submit label on single-select
cards, and their cards would change behaviour.

### Roadmap alignment

`ROADMAP.md` lists no planned core work on onboarding or the first task.
This change refines the existing flow and does not duplicate planned
work.

## What Changed

- Wizard: four steps (Name your organization, Create your first agent,
Connect a model, Review). The front door and both mission steps are
removed with their state and saved-progress keys. The UI no longer
composes the first agent's instructions or the first task description.
- Server-owned texts: the greeting, the brief with two proposal
variants, the chief-of-staff persona, the opening question, and a README
live in `server/src/onboarding-assets/first-task/` and load at runtime.
The create route stores the assembled brief and ignores any client
description.
- Persona seed: an `onboardingFirstAgent` marker on the hire lets the
server seed the chief-of-staff persona over the first agent's entry
file. Board-authored hires only. The persona tells the agent the hire
response shape and to list agents before it acts on an unclear result.
- No auto-run: the first task does not queue an assignment wake. The
stranded-assignment reconciler leaves it idle until a user comment or an
answered card exists.
- Opening card: the server seeds an `ask_user_questions` card right
after the greeting with two options: "Interview me and propose a plan
and an agent team to execute it." and "I have a task in mind" with free
text. Answering wakes the agent.
- Experimental toggle `enableFirstTaskPlanProposal` (default off): the
single-task proposal is one confirmation card, or a plan document plus a
checkbox card when on.
- Question cards: every `ask_user_questions` card renders Cancel, Skip,
and Next (the submit label on the last question). Skip hides on required
questions. Picking an option no longer advances or submits by itself.
- Wizard guards: the dashboard's agentless offer ignores a cached empty
agent list while a refetch is in flight. The hire step adopts an agent
that already carries the typed name instead of hiring "Name 2".
- Agent hires are idempotent within a run: a retry of the identical
request under the same run id returns the existing agent with `200` and
`idempotent: true`. The fingerprint covers the whole validated request,
so a corrected payload is a new hire. Lookup, create, and activity
record run under one lock per company and run, so overlapping retries
cannot both create.
- The Paperclip Runner experimental flag defaults to on for self-hosted
instances. Cloud keeps its declared default: a managed instance whose
tenant row and managed overlay omit the flag resolves it to off.
- Question cards: a send that finds an earlier required answer missing
returns to that question with a message instead of failing silently.
- The two onboarding e2e specs follow the new wizard: the front door and
growth intake shots are gone, and the planning-mode spec dismisses the
opening card before it reads the composer.
- Docs: `docs/board-operator/editing-first-task-texts.md` explains how
to edit the texts and the toggle.

## Verification

Commands, run from the repo root:

```
pnpm -r --filter './packages/*' --filter '!@paperclipai/paperclip-runner' build
pnpm --filter ./packages/shared typecheck
pnpm --filter ./ui typecheck
pnpm --filter ./server exec tsc --noEmit
pnpm check:token-gates
pnpm --filter ./ui exec vitest run OnboardingWizard onboarding QuestionForm InteractionCard ProtocolCard TaskChatComposer Dashboard feature
PAPERCLIP_IN_WORKTREE=false pnpm --filter ./server exec vitest run onboarding-first-task heartbeat-process-recovery agent-hire-idempotency instance-settings agent-skills-routes issue-onboarding onboarding-greeting --testTimeout=90000
```

Results on this branch:

- Typecheck is clean for shared, ui, and server.
- Token gates: 4 of 4 clean.
- UI: 344 tests pass across 23 files.
- Server: all suites pass. The first test in `agent-skills-routes` has
its own 10 s cap and needs about 15 s on my laptop for the app cold
start. It passes with a longer cap. This PR does not change that cap.

Manual steps on a dev instance:

1. Open `/onboarding`. Confirm four steps: Name your organization,
Create your first agent, Connect a model, Review.
2. Finish the wizard. Confirm the first task shows the chief-of-staff
greeting and the opening card with two options. Confirm no run starts.
3. Pick "Interview me…". Confirm no run starts. Press Continue. Confirm
a run starts and an interview card of 3–4 questions arrives.
4. On a fresh organization, pick "I have a task in mind", type a task,
and press Continue. Confirm a proposal arrives as one confirmation card.
5. Turn on Settings → Experimental → "First task: propose with a plan
document" and repeat step 4. Confirm a plan document and a checkbox card
arrive.
6. Visit the dashboard after the hire. Confirm the wizard does not
reopen and one agent exists.
7. Open any question card. Confirm Cancel returns the plain composer
with the card still pending, Skip advances an optional question, and
Next moves to the next question.

## Risks

- `pnpm dev` now builds the runner daemon because the Paperclip Runner
flag is on by default. Developers without a Rust toolchain must set
`PAPERCLIP_RUNNER_BINARY` or turn the flag off. Self-hosted instances
that never set the flag now let qualified agents use the runner.
- The wizard drops the mission steps and their saved-progress keys. A
user who is mid-wizard on an older build restarts at step 1 after an
upgrade. Existing organizations are not touched.
- The first task no longer runs on its own. A user who neither answers
the card nor types sees no agent activity. This is intended.
- The persona seed applies only to hires that carry the marker from the
wizard. API hires are unchanged.
- Hire idempotency is scoped to one run id and to the exact request.
Retries across runs, or with a changed payload, still create a second
agent. The lock is per server process, which matches how an instance
serves its API.
- Single-select question cards no longer submit on pick. Users of
adapters that relied on that behaviour now press Next.
- No database migrations.

DottaandPaperclip d8b9580531 fix(ui): debounce recent task ordering (#13007)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The recent tasks sidebar helps operators return to active and
completed work.
> - Task detail refreshes update the activity timestamps used to sort
that list.
> - Older responses can undo newer activity. Concurrent updates can move
rows repeatedly.
> - This pull request preserves the newest observed activity and
debounces row moves.
> - Operators can select a stable row while task text and live state
stay current.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
Recent task rows can repeatedly swap positions when two tasks receive
updates. Older detail responses can also move a task below another task
after a newer comment promoted it.

**Expected behavior**
Rows remain stable during an update burst. The final activity order
appears after one second of quiet. Old responses never reduce the
recorded activity time.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Enable the streamlined UI and open multiple tasks.
2. Send alternating updates to two tasks in the recent list.
3. Observe row order while those updates arrive and while older detail
data refreshes.

**Paperclip version or commit**
Base commit: 1cc45086d.

**Deployment mode**
Board UI. The behavior is independent of the server deployment mode.

Related work: #12854 and #12746 introduced the current navigation.
#12314 is an earlier experimental sidebar proposal; this fix targets the
implementation already on master.

## What Changed

- Keep stored activity timestamps at their newest observed value in both
recording paths.
- Debounce activity-driven row moves for one second. Keep additions and
removals immediate.
- Keep detail query observers in a fixed order and resolve task text by
task ID.
- Add regression coverage for alternating updates, stale data,
additions, and removals.
- Document recent task ordering in the development guide.

## Verification

- Passed: 17 focused recent task tests.
- Passed: `pnpm check:token-gates`.
- Passed: `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`.
- Passed: Greptile 5/5 on commit
`8861961de9aaa7e9a8184826bc5ce367450f9e8a`, with no review threads or
actionable findings.
- Passed: all 31 remote checks, including all general and serialized
test shards, browser tests, release verification, and build. The opt-in
Storybook visual check was skipped by policy.
- One unrelated concurrent artifact-document test failed on the first CI
attempt. Its 11-test suite passed locally, and the single CI retry
passed without code changes.
- The duplicate full local `pnpm test:run` was started; the completed CI
suite provides the full-suite result.
- Regression tests use fake timers to check that rows remain fixed
during alternating activity, text refreshes immediately, and the final
order appears after one second of quiet.

## Risks

- Continuous activity intentionally delays row moves until updates
settle. New and removed tasks still appear immediately.
- Storage format and server contracts stay compatible. No migration is
needed.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository inspection, code
editing, and test execution. The exact deployment model ID and context
window size are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 8c3b8c432a Simplify app connections and enable managed Google access (#12728)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The Apps subsystem gives humans and agents governed access to
external tools.
> - The current connection flow hides Apps behind an experimental gate
and repeats setup text.
> - Google sharing choices and generic MCP permissions do not use one
consistent opening model.
> - Self-hosted installs also need a safe default origin for managed
OAuth without a manual config file.
> - This pull request makes Apps available, simplifies connection setup,
and applies one governed permissions model.
> - The benefit is a shorter connection flow that works on a clean
self-hosted install.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

This improves the Apps connection setup flow, managed Google connection
flow, generic MCP connection flow, navigation, and runtime origin
discovery.

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting. This changes `ui/`, `server/`, `packages/shared/`,
connector documentation, and browser tests.

**Current behavior**

Apps require an experimental switch. Setup pages repeat titles and
explanatory copy. Connection names require manual input. Google
credential sharing does not always offer both personal and organization
access. Generic MCP providers do not start with the same permission
choices. Managed OAuth needs a public URL setting even when the request
already has a safe HTTPS origin.

**Proposed behavior**

Apps are available by default. Setup asks only for required permissions
and sharing choices. Paperclip creates conflict-free connection names.
Google apps and generic MCP providers use the same human and agent
access model. Managed OAuth derives a validated same-origin HTTPS URL
when no explicit public URL is set.

**Reason and benefit**

A clean self-hosted install can connect a managed Google app without
hidden setup. Humans can share a service account with their
organization. The shorter flow reduces duplicated choices and setup
errors.

**Breaking changes**

The Apps experimental switch is removed. Existing connection APIs remain
compatible. New connections can receive a numeric suffix when a name
already exists.

No duplicate or related public issue was found.

## What Changed

- Removed the Apps experimental gate and the breadcrumb that leaves the
Apps section.
- Simplified all connection setup pages and moved optional provider
requirements into one small link.
- Added consistent human and agent access choices for Google apps,
Zapier, and generic MCP connections.
- Added organization sharing to Google Workspace credentials while
keeping personal access available.
- Generated connection names automatically and resolved name conflicts
with numeric suffixes.
- Derived a validated public HTTPS origin from the request for
config-free managed OAuth.
- Updated connector contracts, tests, browser coverage, and authoring
documentation.

## Verification

- `pnpm check:token-gates`
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm build`
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/generic-mcp-connection.test.ts` (273 passed)
- Targeted UI/service regression suite (308 passed)
- Six targeted Playwright connection journeys on a fresh onboarding
instance (6 passed)
- Fresh-install browser proof through Tailscale HTTPS: enrolled with
Paperclip Cloud, connected managed Google Drive, and completed a real
read operation.
- [Exact-head CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/33669760711):
all 23 matrix jobs passed, including build, typecheck, server,
serialized, canary, and all browser shards.
- Greptile 5/5 on `0ae2a859f269984ee950d0af231a5b09a06f3dfd`, with no
unresolved review threads.

## Risks

Apps are now visible to all operators. The removed experimental flag no
longer hides unfinished app definitions. Managed Google availability
still depends on the Cloud profile rollout and active instance
enrollment. Automatic conflict handling changes only the display name of
a newly conflicting connection.

> I checked [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md). MCP Tool Gateway and Apps are
shipped. Connected Apps is planned, and this change improves the
existing shipped connection flow.

## Model Used

execution.

Devin Foley 7b91fe9ea7 Hide host-path and execution-engine surfaces in managed-sandbox-only mode (#12293)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - An instance can turn on the `enableManagedSandboxOnly` feature,
which hides the local environment and runs every agent in the
platform-managed environment
> - That feature already gated the environment pickers, the onboarding
wizard, and the server-side run selection, but many other screens still
showed absolute paths on the execution host and still let the user pick
an execution engine
> - On such an instance those controls name a filesystem the user cannot
reach; a path written there is stored and then ignored, which reads as a
broken control
> - This pull request hides the remaining host-path and execution-engine
surfaces behind the same feature, adds a server rule that refuses a
project-workspace path write while the feature is on, and closes a
related route gap in the isolated-workspace pages
> - The benefit is that a managed instance shows no host path and no
folder picker anywhere, and a write that carries a path now fails with a
clear message instead of being silently discarded

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists. The description below follows
`.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/enhancement.yml`.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The `enableManagedSandboxOnly` instance feature, and the UI surfaces
that show
a host filesystem path: project properties, the new-project dialog, the
project
workspace and execution workspace detail pages, the workspace and task
cards,
plugin local folders, and the agent configuration form with its
per-adapter
fields. It also improves route gating for `enableIsolatedWorkspaces`.

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting (`ui/` and `server/`).

**Current behavior**

When `enableManagedSandboxOnly` is on, the local environment disappears
from the
environment pickers and the server refuses to run an agent on the local
host.
Everything else stays visible. A user still sees:

- the project "Local folder" row, its absolute path, and the
Set/Change/Clear buttons
- the "Local folder" field and its "Choose" folder picker in the
new-project dialog
- the "Local path" field and fact row on a project workspace
- the "Paths" and "Lifecycle commands" groups on an execution workspace
- the working directory on workspace cards, task properties, and runtime
service rows
- the plugin "Local folders" section
- "Working directory (deprecated)", "Command", "Execution engine",
"ACP server command", "ACP state directory", and "Agent instructions
file" in
  the agent configuration form

A path typed into any of these names a filesystem no agent on the
instance uses.
The project workspace API also accepts a `cwd` write and stores it.

Separately, `/workspaces`, `/execution-workspaces/*`, and
`/projects/:projectId/workspaces/:workspaceId` render for anyone who
types or
bookmarks the URL, even with `enableIsolatedWorkspaces` off. Only the
sidebar
entry reads that flag.

**Proposed behavior**

With `enableManagedSandboxOnly` on, none of those surfaces render. A
project
whose codebase came from a managed checkout keeps its one-line
"Paperclip-managed folder." label and shows no path. The non-path
controls stay:
repo URL, branch, service URL, port, command output, ACP session mode,
ACP
non-interactive permissions, Codex fast mode, and the sandbox toggles.

The project-workspace create and patch routes, and the nested workspace
on
project create, answer `422` with
"This instance runs agents only in the platform-managed environment;
local
folders are not configurable." when the payload carries a non-null
`cwd`.
A `cwd: null` write still passes, so an instance that just turned the
feature on
can clear a stale path.

With `enableIsolatedWorkspaces` off, the three workspace route groups
redirect to
the dashboard.

**Reason and benefit**

A control that cannot do anything is worse than a missing control: the
user fills
it in, saves, and gets no error and no effect. The server rule turns
that silent
no-op into a clear refusal. The route gate stops a feature that an
instance has
turned off from staying reachable by URL, which is the same standard the
Cases,
Pipelines, and hidden-settings pages already meet.

**Breaking changes**

None for a default instance: both flags are off by default for
self-hosted and
managed instances, so nothing changes unless an operator turns them on.
Stored
`adapterConfig` values are never cleared, so turning the feature off
restores
every previous value.

## What Changed

- Add `ui/src/hooks/useManagedSandboxOnly.ts`, modelled on
`useAppsEnabled`, for
components that do not already read the experimental settings. It
exposes
`hideHostPaths`, which fails closed while the settings query is in
flight, so
a cold cache never flashes a host path before the policy resolves.
Components
that keep their own settings read compute the same gate from
`isFetched`.
- Add `managedSandboxOnly` to `AdapterConfigFieldsProps` and populate it
where
`AgentConfigForm` builds the adapter field props. Resolve the effective
instructions-file gate once as `hideInstructionsFile || hideHostPaths`,
so
  every adapter hides that path field with no per-adapter edit.
- Hide under the flag: the project "Local folder" block and its
absolute-path
  edit panel (a managed checkout keeps its label, without the path); the
new-project "Local folder" field; the project-workspace "Local path"
field and
fact row; the execution-workspace "Paths" and "Lifecycle commands"
groups; the
working directory on the workspace summary card, the task workspace
card, the
task properties "Folder" row, and the runtime service rows; the plugin
"Local
folders" section; "Working directory (deprecated)" and "Command" in the
agent
form; and the per-adapter "Execution engine", "ACP server command", and
"ACP state directory" for `claude_local`, `codex_local`, and
`gemini_local`.
- Drop two working-directory fallbacks that had no gate to read: the
close-workspace
dialog now falls back to "No additional details", and the reuse-existing
  workspace label and picker subtitle fall back to a neutral phrase.
- Refuse a non-null `cwd` with `422` on `POST /projects/:id/workspaces`,
`PATCH /projects/:id/workspaces/:workspaceId`, and the nested workspace
on
  `POST /companies/:companyId/projects`, following the
  `assertNoAgentHostWorkspaceCommandMutation` precedent on those routes.
- Add `IsolatedWorkspacesRouteGate` and wrap the `/workspaces`,
`/execution-workspaces/*`, and
`/projects/:projectId/workspaces/:workspaceId`
  routes with it.
- Leave the SSH "Remote workspace path" and the workspace file browser
alone,
  with a comment explaining why.

## Verification

Automated:

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run` — 479 of 480 files
pass
(4455 of 4456 tests). The one failure is `OnboardingWizard.test.tsx >
renders
instead of throwing when the browser denies storage access`, which also
fails
  on `origin/master` and is unrelated to this change.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run project workspace
instance-settings`
— 45 of 50 files pass. Four files fail on macOS for reasons unrelated to
this
  change: `workspace-instance-cleanup`, `workspace-runtime`,
  `execution-workspace-runtime-control-conflict`, and
  `workspace-runtime-exposure` compare `/var/...` against the resolved
`/private/var/...` or bind real ports. The same files fail on a clean
`master`
  checkout on the same machine.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
- `tsc --noEmit` in `server/` (after
`pnpm --filter @paperclipai/plugin-sdk ensure-build-deps`). The package
`typecheck` script also builds the Rust runner, which needs `cargo`; it
is not
  installed on the machine that ran this.

New and extended tests:

- `ui/src/adapters/managed-sandbox-only-config-fields.test.tsx` — the
three
adapters drop the execution engine, the ACP paths, the instructions-file
path,
and every "Choose" button when the flag is on, and keep the non-path
controls.
- `ui/src/components/AgentConfigForm.render.test.tsx` — flag-on and
flag-off
renders for the working directory, the command, the engine, the ACP
paths, and
  the resolved adapter field props.
- `ui/src/components/ProjectProperties.managed-sandbox.test.tsx`,
  `ui/src/components/NewProjectDialog.managed-sandbox.test.tsx`,
  `ui/src/pages/ProjectWorkspaceDetail.test.tsx`,
  `ui/src/components/ProjectWorkspaceSummaryCard.test.tsx`,
  `ui/src/components/WorkspaceRuntimeControls.test.tsx`.
- `ui/src/components/IsolatedWorkspacesRouteGate.test.tsx` — redirect
when off,
  render when on, and render nothing while the flag query is in flight.
- "Still loading" cases for the project properties, the new-project
dialog, the
workspace summary card, the runtime service rows, and the agent
configuration
form, each asserting that no host path renders before the policy
resolves.
-
`server/src/__tests__/project-workspace-managed-sandbox-routes.test.ts`
— the
  `422` on all three write paths, the `cwd: null` pass-through, and the
  flag-off pass-through.

Manual check to reproduce: turn on Managed Environment Only in instance
experimental settings, then open a project, the new-project dialog, an
agent's
configuration, and a workspace page. No path, folder icon, or "Choose"
button
appears. Turn the setting off and each control returns with its stored
value.

No documentation change was needed. The operator-facing text for both
settings
lives in the feature catalog entry, which already states the contract
this pull
request now enforces across the UI.

## Risks

- Low. Both flags default to off, so a default instance is unchanged.
- The hidden fields are presentation only. No stored `adapterConfig`
value is
cleared, because an import carries adapter configuration written on
another
instance and clearing it would break that flow. Turning the setting off
shows
  every previous value again.
- The `422` is the one behavior change for an API caller, and only while
the
setting is on. `cwd: null` still passes so a stale path can be cleared.
- The route gate renders nothing until the flag query settles, so an
instance
with isolated workspaces on never flashes a redirect. An instance with
the
  feature off now redirects a bookmarked workspace URL to the dashboard.
- Every host-path guard fails closed while the settings query is in
flight, so a
default instance shows those controls a moment later than before on a
cold
load. That is the safe direction: the alternative flashes a path a
managed
  instance must never show.
- Two path surfaces stay on purpose, each with a comment: the SSH
"Remote
workspace path" is a path on the user's own remote host, and the
workspace file
browser shows workspace-relative paths. The instance Adapters page also
keeps
its "Local path" install option, since that page is an instance-admin
surface
the hosting operator can already hide through the hidden-settings
mechanism.

Devin Foley db4defdfbf feat: operator-configurable settings visibility via PAPERCLIP_HIDDEN_SETTINGS (#11823)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The instance settings surface (Access, Plugins, Adapters, General,
Experimental) assumes the person at the keyboard operates the whole
instance
> - Operators who host Paperclip for others — a managed cloud or an
internal shared server — expose settings pages and toggles that do not
apply to their deployment, and the related mutation APIs stay open
> - A hosted tenant can open Plugins or Adapters, try an action, and hit
a confusing failure, because only a few hardcoded platform floors exist
> - This pull request adds a generic, operator-configured visibility
mechanism: one env var hides declared settings surfaces in the UI and
floors their mutation routes with a stable 403 code
> - The benefit is a clean hosted-tenant settings surface for any
operator, with zero behavior change for normal self-hosted instances

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Instance settings (server routes and UI), the shared settings registry
in `packages/shared`, and the `/api/health` bootstrap payload.

**Problem or motivation**

An operator who hosts Paperclip for other people cannot hide settings
surfaces that the platform manages. Tenants see Access, Plugins, and
Adapters pages, backup retention, and host-level experimental toggles
that do nothing useful for them. The mutation APIs behind these surfaces
also stay open, so a tenant admin can attempt actions the platform must
control. ROADMAP.md names a cleaner shared deployment story as a goal
("Teams should be able to run the same product in hosted or semi-hosted
environments without changing the mental model").

**Proposed solution**

Add a declarative registry of hideable settings surfaces and one env
var, `PAPERCLIP_HIDDEN_SETTINGS`. The server parses the list at boot,
reports it on `/api/health`, and rejects value-changing writes to hidden
surfaces with a stable `settings_operator_managed` 403 code. The UI
reads the list from the health payload and removes the hidden pages,
sections, and toggles from navigation, routes, and page content. Unknown
keys warn and are ignored, so one list can roll across a fleet with
mixed app versions. With the variable unset, behavior is byte-identical
to today.

**Alternatives considered**

- Hardcode the hidden set for cloud instances in this repo: rejected,
because each hosting operator needs a different policy, and policy does
not belong in shared code.
- Deliver the hidden set through the managed-config document: rejected,
because that channel is cloud-specific and fail-closed on unknown
fields; a plain env var works for any operator, including self-hosted
shared servers.
- Lock the controls with a badge instead of hiding them: rejected for
these surfaces, because they are meaningless to tenants, not merely
platform-controlled; the existing managed-overlay lock stays the right
tool for controlled flags.

**Roadmap alignment**

Supports the "shared deployment story" item in ROADMAP.md: hosted and
semi-hosted deployments keep the same product with a settings surface
that matches what the tenant can actually do.

## What Changed

- New `packages/shared/src/settings-visibility.ts`: registry of hideable
surfaces (every instance settings page — profile, environments, access,
heartbeats, experimental, plugins, adapters; every Instance → General
section; every experimental flag as `instance.experimental.<key>`), the
`PAPERCLIP_HIDDEN_SETTINGS` parser, and the `settings_operator_managed`
error code. The General page stays visible as the settings root and
redirect target.
- New `server/src/services/settings-visibility.ts`: parse-once accessor;
unknown keys log one warning and are ignored.
- `/api/health` reports `hiddenSettings` on every response shape; the
field is omitted when nothing is hidden.
- Server floors on hidden surfaces, with same-value echo tolerance (the
`executionMode` precedent): field-backed general sections and
experimental keys reject value-changing PATCHes, and hiding the whole
Experimental page floors every toggle; plugin lifecycle and config
writes, adapter management writes, and the Access admin routes (reads
included) return 403 `settings_operator_managed`. Reads the app itself
needs (plugin `ui-contributions`, adapter metadata, plugin job trigger)
stay open. Pages without instance-scoped mutation routes are hidden in
the UI only.
- UI: new `useHiddenSettings` hook and `HiddenSettingsPageGate` route
gate (hidden pages redirect to the settings root); the settings sidebar
and tab bar drop hidden entries; remembered settings paths remap to the
default page; `InstanceGeneralSettings` skips hidden sections; every
`ExperimentalToggleCard` now carries its flag key and renders nothing
when hidden.
- Removed the dead `InstanceSidebar` component (referenced only by its
own test).
- Docs: `docs/deploy/environment-variables.md` documents the variable
and the key registry.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run` over the new and extended suites: shared registry
and parser, representative floor tests per route class (changed-value
403, same-value echo 200, unset env 200, page-level Experimental
hiding), the health field, the route gate, nav filtering, and
section/card hiding with one hidden example per surface kind — 168 tests
pass.
- Full root `pnpm typecheck` passes.
- Manual: booted a server with the variable set. `/api/health` lists the
keys; an unknown key logs one warning and the server boots; hidden pages
redirect; hidden sections and cards do not render; hidden-field PATCH
returns 403 with `details.code = "settings_operator_managed"`; a
same-value echo returns 200. Unset the variable: the full settings
surface returns and responses are byte-identical to master.

## Risks

- Low risk for self-hosted instances: with the variable unset, the
hidden set is empty, the health field is omitted, and no floor
activates.
- Flooring plugin config writes assumes hosted deployments configure
plugins through the platform. If a future bundled plugin needs
tenant-entered config, the floor needs a narrow carve-out.
- Hidden-key floors tolerate same-value echoes, so API clients that
round-trip full GET responses keep working.
- Hiding a toggle does not change its value; operators pair hiding with
the desired default where the value matters.

TonioandClaude Opus 5 6d0adbfb5d refactor(ui): retire the shared-cache reasoning the account key made obsolete (#11507)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Three places in the UI turn the company list into an authorization
verdict: the invite landing page, the onboarding draft gate, and company
auto-selection
> - Each grew a defense when one `["companies"]` cache entry answered
for every account, and each documented that hazard at length
> - #11488 keyed the entry by account, so the hazard those comments
describe can no longer happen
> - The comments stayed, and a comment that describes a trap that no
longer exists is how the next reader removes a mechanism that is still
holding something up
> - This pull request replaces that reasoning with what the mechanisms
actually do now, and removes the one condition that genuinely went dead
> - The benefit is that the next person to simplify these gates has
accurate reasons to work from

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists. Follow-up to #11488, #11430 and #11417. The
problem follows.

**What happened?**

The three gates were written against a shared, account-less company
cache. #11488 keyed that entry by account, which made the documented
hazard impossible — but the documentation stayed. Each gate now carries
a long explanation of a cross-account leak that the key prevents, while
the mechanism it explains is in fact still required for a different and
unrelated reason.

That is a maintenance hazard in a specific direction: a reader who
checks the comment against the code concludes the mechanism is obsolete,
removes it, and reintroduces a failure the comment never mentioned.

**Expected behavior**

The reasoning next to each gate describes why the gate is there now.

**Steps to reproduce**

Read the comment above `ownershipDecidable` in `OnboardingWizard.tsx`
against `master`. It justifies `isSuccess` on the grounds that "after an
account switch the retained value is the previous account's list", which
the account-keyed entry makes impossible.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`master` at `0817fbad9`.

## What Changed

- `ui/src/pages/InviteLanding.tsx` — dropped the
`Boolean(sessionQuery.data)` conjunct from `membershipListIsCurrent`;
rewrote the comment.
- `ui/src/components/OnboardingWizard.tsx` — replaced the shared-cache
explanation above the ownership gate with the reason the gate still
exists.
- `ui/src/hooks/useSignOut.ts` — corrected the sweep's rationale, which
cited the company list as its example of data the next account could
read.

### The one dead condition

`membershipListIsCurrent` tested `Boolean(sessionQuery.data) &&
companiesQuery.isFetchedAfterMount`. The first term cannot be false when
the second is true: the query is `enabled` only while a session exists,
so the flag cannot be set without one. The lapsed-session case it looked
like it covered is covered by the keying instead — the observer re-keys
to the anonymous entry and holds no data to leak.

Tests pass with it removed, but that only shows no test distinguishes
it, which is why the reasoning above is recorded in the code rather than
left for the next reader to redo.

### What is deliberately kept

Each gate turned out to be load-bearing for a reason that has nothing to
do with accounts:

- **InviteLanding** still waits for a list fetched this mount. A pending
query reads as an empty list, which reads as "not a member", which
auto-accepts an invite the customer may already hold.
- **OnboardingWizard** still forces a fetch with `staleTime: 0`. A
cached list is the right account's but can be thirty seconds old, so a
company created moments ago in another tab is missing from it — and
missing reads as "you do not own this", which *deletes* the draft rather
than withholding it.
- **CompanyProvider** still clears the live selection on an account
change. That is component state and does not change key with the query.

Removing them as redundant is the mistake the stale comments invited;
this change is what makes that argument harder to make by accident.

## Verification

- `pnpm tsc -b` in `ui`: clean.
- `InviteLanding.test.tsx`, `OnboardingWizard.test.tsx`,
`CompanyContext.test.tsx`, `useSignOut.test.tsx`,
`companies-query.test.ts`: **67 passed**, run twice.

No behaviour change is claimed and none is intended: the only
non-comment edit is the removal of a condition that cannot alter the
expression's value.

**Not done:** no browser run. Nothing here is observable at runtime.

## Risks

Low. Comments, plus one condition shown to be unreachable-false.

The risk that remains is a documentation risk in the other direction: if
the keying is ever reverted or bypassed, these comments will understate
what the gates protect against. They name #11488 so that connection is
findable.

**This does not close the class.** Account-scoped entries other than the
list — `["companies", id]`, stats, and the rest — still survive an
account change that skips the sign-out button. That is unclaimed work,
and larger than this.

TonioandClaude Opus 5 0023c5c4a6 refactor(ui): record why sign-out resets rather than removes (#11473)
Comment only. Salvaged from `claude/sign-out-cache-note`, written while #11380
was in progress and never opened as a PR; that branch is deleted with this.

#11380 landed the reasoning for `resetQueries` but not the evidence, and not
the part that stops someone reversing it later.

The choice was measured rather than argued. Against query-core 5.101.4,
removal produced 0 notifications and left the observer holding the signed-out
account's session; reset produced 3 and null. The consequence of the former is
not only a stale read - CloudAccessGate's redirect fires on the session going
empty, so it never runs.

The opposite advice really does hold for a local reset of a key an observer is
still mounted against: reset rewinds the update counters `isFetchedAfterMount`
derives from while that observer keeps its bind-time baseline, so anything
gated on the flag withholds forever. Sign-out is not that case, because it
resets the session too and the consumer unmounts on the redirect.

Two sessions reached opposite recommendations on this API within a day, both
correct about different situations, which is the kind of thing a later reader
re-litigates without a note in the file.

The first revision of this note named the wrong consumers - InviteLanding and
the onboarding draft gate, neither of which reads `isFetchedAfterMount`.
`AppsConnect` is the only one on master and is what it names now.

ui typecheck clean; 13 pass across the sign-out suites.

TonioandClaude Opus 5 38752c4e5e fix(ui): clear account-scoped query caches on sign-out (#11380)
Sign-out invalidated two query keys - the auth session and health - and left
everything else in the cache. `invalidateQueries` also keeps serving the old
data while it refetches, so it was insufficient even for the two it did touch.
The company list was never touched at all, which is how one account's
companies could still be in hand when the next account signed in.

The self-hosted path now resets every account-scoped entry. Scoping is an
allowlist of instance-scoped roots rather than a list of things to clear, so a
query key added later is account-scoped unless someone deliberately says
otherwise - forgetting this file fails closed.

`health` is the only exemption. It carries deployment mode, bootstrap state
and Cloud metadata, nothing account-scoped, and `useCloudInstance` observes it
with `enabled: false` and leaves the fetch to CloudAccessGate. Dropping the
entry would strand every such observer on `null` until the gate happened to
refetch, flipping Cloud instances into their self-hosted rendering mid
sign-out. It is refreshed in place instead.

`resetQueries` rather than `removeQueries`: removal empties the cache without
notifying the observers already subscribed, so a mounted `useQuery` keeps
returning its last result until an unrelated re-render rebuilds it.
CompanyProvider sits above the router and stays mounted across the whole
sign-out and sign-in cycle, so that is the common case here rather than a
corner one. Reset notifies them, so the old data leaves the cache and
everything reading it.

The cloud path is untouched: it is a top-level navigation, and the document
reload builds a new QueryClient with nothing left to clear.

This is the root cause behind the onboarding draft-ownership gate added in
#11382. That gate stays, and its comment now says why: this fix covers the
sign-out button, not the question. An account can change without it - a
session lapsing server-side, a second account signing in on a warm tab, a
caller supplying the company context from somewhere else - so the gate stays
independent rather than deferring to this.

6542ad1f4d fix(onboarding): carry an existing company's mission into the wizard (#11416)
Ports the substance of #11259, which predated the recent onboarding work and
was still open. One of the parts it solves is a regression #11352 introduced.

A company that already has its mission opens on the agent step, which is the
point of #11352. What that missed is that the mission field is filled only by
the step being skipped, and that the field is not decoration:
`composeCeoInstructions` seeds the lead agent's instructions from it, and the
Review checklist reads it. So every Cloud-seeded company hired its lead agent
with no Mission line at all, having been routed there precisely *because* it
had a mission. Before #11352 those companies dead-ended on the mission step; a
dead end became a quiet data loss, which is worse, because it completes.

`selectExistingCompanyMission` reads the company's own goal back into the shape
the mission field holds, and the wizard hydrates from it - only when the field
is empty, so a customer editing their mission is never overwritten by the
stored copy. The marker recording that hydration travels with the field it
describes, cleared wherever `companyGoal` is.

`isExistingCompanyMissionUnresolved` holds the hire while that read is
outstanding, counting an in-flight refetch over cached goals as unresolved.
That is the rule #11382 settled on a day earlier for a different consumer -
`isFetching`, not `isLoading`, because retained data is not an answer to the
question being asked now. #11259 had it first, on 11 August.

`canGoBackFromOnboardingStep` and `canJumpToOnboardingStep` bound how far back
a run can walk by the step it entered on. The Back button already applied that
rule inline; the progress bar applied only the "already completed" half, so a
run holding a company could still jump to step 1 - the step whose job is to
create one. The entry step is captured once, when the wizard opens, for the
same reason the step itself is.

`planMissionPersistence` came with them and turned out to be required rather
than tidying. Hydration sets `createdCompanyGoalId` from the company's existing
goal, and confirming the mission read that id as "already written" and skipped
the write, discarding the customer's edit. That skip was safe only while the id
could arrive one way - by writing. A goal in hand now means update it.

Each piece was checked by removing it and confirming a specific case fails.
The hydration case asserts on `saveInstructionsFile`'s content, the actual
consumer, rather than on the mission textarea, because the entry path never
renders that field and the navigation bound now prevents reaching it. One
caveat recorded rather than smoothed over: the reopen case fails only when
both marker-clears are removed, since `reset()` also clears the company id and
the next introduction routes through `clearCompanyScopedState`. They are kept
as one invariant rather than one guard plus a coincidence.

ui typecheck clean; full ui suite 4004 pass. Two failures remain, in
IssueProperties and StatusCards/format; both are date-dependent, both
reproduce on master with these changes stashed, and neither file is touched
here.

TonioandClaude Opus 5 d95340b0b8 feat(ui): send a company with no agent into onboarding, at the right step (#11352)
A company with no agent cannot do anything: no runs, no tasks, nothing to
show. The dashboard says so in a banner with a link, which asks the customer
to notice a problem the product can fix for them. It is worse for a company
created by Paperclip Cloud: Cloud creates the company before the tenant
boots, so the companyless redirect never runs, and the customer arrives on an
empty dashboard straight out of a signup flow that already asked for a
mission.

The dashboard now opens onboarding when the agent list has loaded and is
empty, and onboarding opens on the agent step when the company already has
its mission — read from the company-level goal the seed writes, under the
query key the launch path already uses, so it shares a cache entry rather
than adding a fetch.

The step is decided once. `initialStep` is derived from the company list and
the goal list, so it changes on any retry, refetch or cache invalidation. An
effect that took it as a dependency called `setStep` on every one of those
and moved a customer who was already mid-flow. Gating the input only narrowed
that window; it could not close it. The step now belongs to the request that
opened the wizard: the effect reads it through a ref and is keyed on the
wizard opening or the company changing. `createdCompanyIdRef` beside it
already used this pattern for the same reason.

That exposed a path nothing had ever taken. A company reached the mission
step only by creating itself on step 1, so opening an existing company there
found code that had never run: `companyName` is only typed on step 1, and
both ways forward require it, so the step could not be completed at all; and
confirming advanced without writing anything, so the mission the customer
typed was discarded. Both fixed, and the write now reconciles against the
goal list rather than adding a second company goal, since the mission lookup
fails open and can send a company that has one back to that step.

Company-scoped state now stays with its company. `clearCompanyScopedState`
runs when the route replaces a company and when it withdraws one — the same
event, and clearing half of it left a goal id that made the next company skip
a mission it had never given. `stillTheSameCompany` guards all five async
writes, after the server work rather than before it, so a company switch
mid-flight cannot hand the new company the old one's goal, project, issue or
agent, and cannot leave a hired agent without its instructions file. The
keyboard path honours `loading` like every button already did.
`claimOnboardingOffer` makes onboarding an offer that stays declined for the
visit.

Route ownership is now recorded whenever the route names a company, including
one the wizard already holds. This changes a documented rule deliberately:
without it a self-created company was never withdrawn, so `/onboarding` would
show "create a company" while still holding the previous one and write the
customer's new mission into it.

Tested at the seam, because every defect on this branch lived between a value
and its consumer and the predicate tests passed at every stage.
`OnboardingWizard.step.test.tsx` renders the real wizard against the real
resolver and the real mission hook across 18 cases, and each was
fault-injected against the code it replaces rather than trusted on a green
run. That caught a case that passed against the broken code, and a race in
one of the guards.

ui typecheck clean; full ui suite 3923 pass, with one timezone-dependent
IssueProperties failure present on this branch's base in a file this change
does not touch. All CI gates green; Greptile 5/5.

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.

Devin Foley d90f4d488e fix(ui): survive first load against a cold backend without a blank page (#11246)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The web UI holds live websocket connections for run events,
coordinates cross-tab polling through a leader-election store, and
renders app chrome (sidebar, providers) around a routed outlet
> - When the backend is still cold-starting (managed hosting wake,
server restart, reverse proxy up before the app), the event websockets
refuse connections and the first SPA load mounts against a dead backend
> - In that state the mount cascade can exceed React's nested update
limit (minified error #185); the crash originates in shell hooks outside
the routed error boundary, so React unmounts the entire root to a blank
page, and the dead page keeps retrying the websocket on a flat 1.5s
timer until the user hard-refreshes
> - This pull request removes the wasted nested commits from the
shared-polling subscription path, adds exponential backoff to the
transcript websocket reconnect, and adds a last-resort app-shell error
boundary
> - The benefit is that a cold or briefly unreachable backend degrades
to a recoverable state instead of a blank page that hammers the server

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No existing issue. Description follows the bug template:

**What happened?**

On the first load against a backend that was still starting, the app
showed its loading animation and then a blank page. The console showed
repeated `WebSocket connection to 'wss://…/api/companies/<id>/events/ws'
failed` lines and `Uncaught Error: Minified React error #185` with a
stack through the shared-polling coordinator's `subscribe`. The
websocket retries continued indefinitely on the dead page. A manual
refresh fixed it.

**Expected behavior**

A backend that is briefly unreachable degrades gracefully: websocket
reconnects back off, the UI keeps rendering from cache, and even a
worst-case crash shows a reload prompt instead of a blank page.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Serve the UI while the backend API is still starting (websocket
upgrades and API calls refused).
2. Load any company page with several shared-polling consumers mounted
(dashboard with sidebar).
3. Observe repeated websocket failures; on affected loads the page goes
blank with React error #185.

## What Changed

- `ui/src/hooks/useSharedPolling.ts`: coordinator snapshot notifications
now keep the previous state object when leadership did not change, so
React bails out instead of scheduling a nested re-render. `subscribe`
invokes its listener synchronously from inside the mount effect with a
fresh object each time; before this change every mount and notify burned
nested-update budget even with no value change — the crash frame in the
field report was exactly this `subscribe → setState` call.
- `ui/src/components/transcript/useLiveRunTranscripts.ts`: the live
event websocket reconnect backs off exponentially (1.5s → 15s cap, reset
on successful open), mirroring `LiveUpdatesProvider`, instead of a flat
1.5s retry.
- `ui/src/components/AppErrorBoundary.tsx` (+ wiring in
`ui/src/main.tsx`): a dependency-free boundary above the router and
providers. `RouteErrorBoundary` only guards the routed `<Outlet />`; a
crash in the shell around it had no boundary, so React unmounted the
root to a blank page. The boundary renders a reload prompt with the
error message.
- Tests: `useSharedPollingSnapshot.test.tsx` (mount costs no extra
commit — fails against the previous code; a real leadership change
re-renders exactly once and ticks stay quiet), a backoff test in
`useLiveRunTranscripts.test.tsx` (delays grow 1.5s → 3s → 6s and reset
after a successful open), and `AppErrorBoundary.test.tsx` (render throw,
effect throw, healthy pass-through).

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run` in `ui/` over the touched suites (shared polling,
cross-tab poll, transcripts, boundary): 34 tests pass.
- `pnpm typecheck` in `ui/` — clean.
- The snapshot regression test was verified to fail against the
pre-change hook (extra commit per mount).
- Not reproduced end-to-end: the exact 50-update cascade from the field
crash needs a live cold backend; the change removes the identified
per-mount/per-notify nested commits at the reported crash frame, bounds
the reconnect load, and guarantees the shell can no longer blank the
page.

## Risks

Low risk. The snapshot change only suppresses re-renders whose state is
value-identical; leadership changes propagate exactly as before. The
backoff only lengthens retry delays after consecutive failures and
resets on success. The new boundary renders children untouched unless an
error reaches it; behavior on healthy loads is unchanged. Self-hosted
deployments see the same code paths — the cold-backend window simply
rarely occurs there.

## Model Used

- Claude (Anthropic), Claude Fable 5 (`claude-fable-5`), via Claude Code
CLI with extended thinking and tool use (code search, edit, test
execution; diagnosis included mapping the production minified stack to
source).

scotttongandClaude Fable 5 5bb2490b86 feat(ui): surface all issue documents and agent artifacts in chat-style sidebar (#11226)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The task detail page uses a chat-style thread with a right sidebar;
the sidebar has a Plan tab and an Artifacts tab (#11101 made this UI the
default)
> - The Plan tab only showed the one issue document named `plan`, and
the Artifacts tab only listed formal work products; other agent-authored
documents (for example a `synthesis` doc) and agent-attached files were
invisible in the sidebar
> - Users could see an agent mention a document in the thread but had no
way to find that document in the sidebar, which breaks trust in the task
view as the record of the work
> - This pull request surfaces every non-system issue document in the
Plan tab, composes the Artifacts tab from work products, documents, and
agent-created attachments, and gives thread images a full-screen
lightbox with download
> - The benefit is that anything an agent produces on a task is now
reachable from the sidebar, while user uploads stay with their comments
in the thread

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #11101 (chat-style task UI default — this PR extends its sidebar).

**Subsystem affected**

Task detail UI (chat-style thread sidebar): Plan tab, Artifacts tab, and
thread attachment rendering in `ui/src`.

**Current behavior**

The Plan tab renders only the issue document literally named `plan`. The
Artifacts tab renders only formal work products. Agent-authored
documents with any other name, and files agents attach to comments, do
not appear anywhere in the sidebar. Thread images open as bare links.

**Proposed behavior**

The Plan tab lists every non-system issue document, with the `plan`
document first and the others rendered inline below it. The Artifacts
tab composes three sources — work products, issue documents, and
agent-created comment attachments — deduplicated against
attachment-backed work products via `metadata.attachmentId`, and shows
whenever any source is non-empty. Work-product rows without a resolvable
attachment or document fall back to links found in their metadata so
they stay clickable. Images in the thread open a shared full-screen
lightbox with a download action. Files uploaded by users stay
thread-only and are not mixed into the Artifacts tab.

**Reason and benefit**

Agents routinely produce documents that are not named `plan` and attach
files to their comments. Users reading the thread must be able to find
every one of those outputs from the sidebar. Redundant surfacing is
acceptable; an unfindable document is not.

**Breaking changes**

None. This is additive rendering; no schema or API changes.

## What Changed

- `IssuePropertiesPlansTab.tsx`: renders all non-system issue documents,
`plan` primary, others inline below via `MarkdownBody`
- `IssuePropertiesArtifactsTab.tsx`: composes work products + documents
+ agent-created attachments with dedupe; rows without an
attachment/document target fall back to `metadata` links
- `IssueProperties.tsx`: Artifacts tab visibility now derives from the
composed source set
- New `ui/src/lib/issue-artifacts.ts`: pure composition/dedupe logic,
unit-tested
- New `ui/src/components/task-chat/task-chat-attachments.ts`: splits
agent vs user comment attachments, unit-tested
- `TaskChatBubble.tsx`: thread images open the shared full-screen
lightbox with download
- `useIssueDocuments.ts`: hook now exposes the full issue-document list

## Verification

- `pnpm typecheck` — passes across the workspace
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — 3/3 CLEAN
- `cd ui && pnpm vitest run src/lib/issue-artifacts.test.ts
src/components/task-chat/task-chat-attachments.test.ts
src/pages/IssueDetail.test.tsx` — 74 tests pass
- Manual: open a task whose agent created a document not named `plan`
(for example `synthesis`); confirm it appears in the Plan tab below the
plan and in the Artifacts tab; confirm an image the agent attached
appears under Artifacts; confirm a user-uploaded image stays only in the
thread and opens full screen with a download button

Snapshot baselines are intentionally not updated for this visual change,
per the `doc/design/DECISION-SHEET.md` entry "Per-change snapshot
verification demoted to dormant (Jul 13 2026)".

## Risks

- Low risk: rendering-only change scoped to the task sidebar and thread
bubbles; composition logic is pure and unit-tested
- Dedupe relies on `metadata.attachmentId` linkage; a work product with
malformed metadata would render as a duplicate row (cosmetic only)

## Model Used

- Claude (Anthropic), model id `claude-fable-5`, extended thinking
enabled, agentic tool use via Claude Agent SDK (Claude Code harness)

DottaandPaperclip 7ea2068ef8 fix(files): only highlight accessible workspace file links (#11090)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Task comments can contain references to files in project and
execution workspaces.
> - Paperclip detected path-shaped inline code and showed it as an
actionable file chip.
> - The UI did not first confirm that the current board session could
open the file.
> - Missing, denied, ambiguous, remote, and unsupported files therefore
looked actionable and failed after a click.
> - This pull request adds an issue-scoped availability check and
promotes only confirmed files to chips.
> - The benefit is that the task thread shows a file action only when
that action can succeed.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Task comments promoted path-shaped inline code to file chips before
Paperclip checked the file. A chip could point to a missing, denied,
ambiguous, remote, or non-previewable file. The action then failed after
the user selected it.

**Expected behavior**

Paperclip must show a file chip only after the server confirms that the
current board session can open the exact file reference. All other
path-shaped text must stay ordinary inline code.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Add a task comment that contains inline code with a missing or
inaccessible workspace path.
2. Open the task thread as a board user.
3. Observe that the path looks like an actionable file chip.
4. Select the chip and observe that the file cannot open.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`19be4cf927` and earlier.

**Deployment mode**

Local dev and self-hosted server.

**Access context**

Board user.

## What Changed

- Added shared request, response, and validation contracts for batched
workspace-file availability checks.
- Added an issue-scoped server endpoint that resolves file references
with company, issue, workspace, and preview-access checks.
- Added bounded batch concurrency and tests for missing, denied,
ambiguous, remote, unsupported, and available files.
- Added an issue-scoped UI availability registry that deduplicates,
batches, caches, and invalidates file checks.
- Changed task-comment markdown rendering so only confirmed files get
chip styling and file-viewer behavior.
- Bound each chip to the exact workspace target that passed the
availability check.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/shared/src/workspace-file-resource.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/file-resources.test.ts
ui/src/components/MarkdownBody.test.tsx
ui/src/components/WorkspaceFileMarkdownBody.availability.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/remark-workspace-file-refs.test.ts
ui/src/lib/workspace-file-availability.test.ts` — 93 passed, 35 skipped.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — clean.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm build` — passed.
- `pnpm test:run` — all server and UI groups passed. One unchanged CLI
test saw the run-injected static AWS credentials and expected only its
local `AWS_PROFILE`. The same test passed, 8 of 8, after removing only
`AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID` and `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` from its process
environment.

## Risks

- File chips now appear after an asynchronous availability check, so
path-shaped text can briefly render as inline code.
- Availability results use the existing 30-second file-resource cache
window. File-resource invalidation forces a new check.
- The endpoint limits each request to 100 references and the client
chunks larger sets.

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

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex with GPT-5. The service did not expose a more specific
model ID or context-window size. The agent used high-reasoning mode,
repository tools, command execution, and test execution.

scotttong 815e49bb7c feat: make chat-style tasks the default experience (#11101) 2026-08-11 09:06:21 -07:00
TonioandPaperclip 384e5f6178 revert(ui): back out onboarding port (#10786) (#11067)
This reverts commit 11e56654f8.

#10786 ported the onboarding flow from a standalone prototype and
repointed `/onboarding` at the new `CloudOnboardingFlow`, deleting the
existing `OnboardingWizard.tsx` in the process. The ported flow is not
ready to be the shipping onboarding experience: it landed as a single
large port rather than an incremental migration, it pulled `motion`,
`three` and `@types/three` onto the UI dependency list for prototype
visuals, and it deleted the wizard that four in-flight pull requests
(#9900, #9501, #8982 and one more) were building on — those went
CONFLICTING the moment the file disappeared.

Rather than keep the half-migrated state on master while that is sorted
out, back the port out whole and re-land it incrementally. This restores
`OnboardingWizard.tsx` and the previous versions of the four e2e specs,
drops the `onboarding-preview.html` Vite entry, the DesignGuide
onboarding section and the `data-viz-misc` storybook story, and removes
the three prototype dependencies from `ui/package.json`.

This is an exact mechanical inverse of the squash commit — 41 files,
+2089/-3647, no hand edits. Reverting this commit restores all 41 files
byte for byte, so the port is recoverable in full when it is ready.

`pnpm-lock.yaml` is deliberately not touched. #10786 never updated it;
bot commit 4683f26c9 (#11036) added the `motion`/`three` entries
afterwards, so the lockfile is now ahead of the manifest. CI owns
lockfile updates (`.github/workflows/pr.yml`) and the policy job
regenerates it from the changed manifest.

TonioandClaude Opus 5 11e56654f8 feat(ui): port onboarding flow from prototype; add cloud + local variants (#10786)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - First-run onboarding is the subsystem that turns a brand-new install
into a working company: it creates the company, its goal, a lead agent,
and that agent's first task
> - The existing `OnboardingWizard` carried all of that wiring
correctly, but its UI had drifted from the current design direction, and
a separate design prototype (`paperclip-onboard`) existed as a
standalone visual mock with no backend
> - Porting the prototype's *logic* would have thrown away working,
well-tested backend orchestration; leaving the two apart meant the
design never shipped
> - Separately, cloud and local (self-hosted) installs need meaningfully
different first runs — local has no sign-in and must let the user pick a
locally-installed CLI adapter — so a single linear wizard could not
serve both
> - This pull request rebuilds the presentational layer from the
prototype on top of the existing backend orchestration, and splits it
into two thin flow containers over a shared core
> - The benefit is that the shipped onboarding matches the intended
design, cloud and local can diverge without duplicating logic, and each
can later ship to a different app version while sharing one set of step
components

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No existing issue — describing inline (feature request).

**What problem does this solve?**
Onboarding is the first thing a new user sees, and the shipped wizard
had drifted from the current design. In parallel, cloud and local
installs need different first-run paths: local has no hosted sign-in,
and its agent runs on a CLI adapter installed on the user's machine,
which the cloud path never has to ask about. There was no way to express
that difference without either forking the whole wizard or bolting
conditionals onto a single linear flow.

**Proposed solution**
Extract the onboarding step views and shell into a shared core, then
compose two thin flow containers (cloud and local) over it. Keep all
backend orchestration in the existing `useOnboardingFlow` hook so no
working logic is rewritten.

**Alternatives considered**
- *Single flow with a `variant` prop* — most DRY, but the two flows are
intended to ship on different app versions, and a shared file would have
to be split later anyway.
- *Two fully independent copies* — simplest per-flow, but every shared
refinement (spacing, motion, copy) would have to be made twice and would
drift.

## What Changed

- **Shared core** under `ui/src/components/onboarding/`:
`OnboardingScaffold` owns the full-screen shell and the single
`AnimatePresence` step crossfade, so both flows transition identically;
step views (Start / Company / Agent / Task), `FooterNav`, `AgentPreview`
and the motion constants are extracted for reuse.
- **`CloudOnboardingFlow`** — `start → company → agent → task`; mounted
in the real app via `OnboardingWizardVariant`. Behaviour matches the
retired wizard, including `previewMock` and the existing-company ("add
an agent") entry point.
- **`LocalOnboardingFlow`** — skips sign-in and adds an optional email
ask (with a privacy assurance), a local model/adapter step that hires
with `requireEnvProbe: true`, and a "star us on GitHub" interstitial
before completing. **Harness-only for now** — the real app still mounts
the cloud flow.
- **Deleted `OnboardingWizard.tsx`** (1,786 lines); updated its
Storybook stories and the `OnboardingWizardVariant` test to the new
components.
- **Orbiting 3D paperclip backdrop** behind the auth and welcome screens
(`three`), code-split so it only downloads on those screens; honours
`prefers-reduced-motion` and disposes its GL context on unmount.
- **`motion`** added for step transitions and the agent-capsule
choreography.
- Visual values routed through design tokens per `DESIGN.md`; `Stepper`
generalized to take a step total (backward compatible); `/design-guide`
page and the component index updated.
- **Standalone preview harness** (`ui/onboarding-preview.html`) with
`?flow=` and `?step=` for backend-free review, wired as a second Vite
rollup input.
- **Adapter env probe bound to the adapter it ran against.**
`hireLeadAgent` reused `adapterEnvResult` for any adapter, so when a
hire failed and the user picked a *different* local adapter and retried,
the previous adapter's verdict satisfied the `requireEnvProbe` guard
while the hire posted the new adapter's config — hiring it unprobed. The
cache is now keyed on the adapter type plus the exact config posted to
the test endpoint, the config is built once and shared by probe and
hire, a failed probe clears the cache, and `clearAdapterEnvResult()`
(called on adapter change) stops the step displaying a stale verdict.
Cloud is unaffected — it hires with `requireEnvProbe: false`. Reported
by Greptile.
- **E2E specs re-pointed at the new flow.** Four specs still drove the
deleted wizard (`onboarding`, `conference-room-typing-intro`,
`planning-mode-visual-verification`, `nux-phase4-screenshots`) and
failed with `element(s) not found` on `"Name your company"` /
`input[placeholder="Acme Corp"]`. Rather than repeat the new drive
sequence four times, `tests/e2e/onboarding-flow.ts` adds one driver per
step (`startCloudOnboarding`, `completeCompanyStep`,
`completeAgentStep`, `completeTaskStep`, `completeCloudOnboarding`) and
the specs import it, so the next flow change touches a single file. Two
now-dead `**/test-environment` route stubs went with it — the cloud flow
hires with `requireEnvProbe: false`, so that probe never fires.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` — clean.
- `npx vitest run` over the onboarding suites
(`OnboardingWizardVariant`, `AgentCapsule`, `onboarding-launch`,
`onboarding-goal`, `onboarding-route`, `onboarding-adapter-config`) — 33
tests pass.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui build` — succeeds; the three.js chunk
splits out separately (522 kB raw / 133 kB gzip) rather than entering
the main bundle.
- Both flows driven end-to-end in the preview harness in `previewMock`
(no database writes), plus the cloud flow rendered in the real
authenticated app at `/onboarding` to confirm the mount swap.
- The four re-pointed e2e specs pass locally against the new flow.
- New `ui/src/hooks/useOnboardingFlow.test.tsx` — 4 cases pinning the
adapter-probe cache (switch-adapter retry, cold path, explicit clear,
and the cloud flow's `requireEnvProbe: false`). Verified non-vacuous:
the switch-adapter case fails against the pre-fix code.
- Rebased onto current `master`; `pnpm-lock.yaml` is deliberately
**not** committed — `.github/workflows/pr.yml` regenerates it when a
manifest changes and shares it with downstream jobs as the `pr-lockfile`
artifact.

## Risks

- **Deleting `OnboardingWizard.tsx` is the one change that alters
existing app behaviour.** The cloud flow is intended to be
behaviour-equivalent, and its entry points are covered by the updated
`OnboardingWizardVariant` test, but this is the area to review most
closely.
- **Conflict risk with open PRs that touch the old wizard**: #9900,
#9501, #8982 and #6636 all modify
`ui/src/components/OnboardingWizard.tsx`, which this PR removes.
Whichever lands second will need its change re-applied to the new step
components. Flagging so ordering can be decided deliberately.
- **New dependencies**: `motion` and `three` (+ `@types/three`). `three`
is large, so it is lazily imported and code-split — it does not affect
the main bundle. Both are MIT.
- The **local flow is not reachable in the app** yet (harness/canary
only), so it carries no runtime risk today; wiring it up is a follow-up.
- The auth screens remain **presentational only** — they are not wired
to real auth, unchanged from before this PR.
- **Pre-existing, not introduced here:** `OnboardingWizardVariant`
renders outside `<Routes>` in `App.tsx`, so its `useParams()` never
resolves `:companyPrefix` and `/{prefix}/onboarding` opens the welcome
screen instead of jumping to the agent step. `master` has the identical
structure, so this PR faithfully ports existing behaviour; the working
"add an agent" entry is the launcher card behind the overlay, which is
what the screenshot spec drives. Worth a separate fix.

DottaandPaperclip f258b34bbd fix(ui): unify cloud-managed sign-out (#10994)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Paperclip can run as a self-hosted app or as a Cloud-managed tenant.
> - These modes need different sign-out sequences because Cloud owns
three sessions.
> - Several visible controls implemented sign-out separately and could
choose different paths.
> - This pull request adds one Cloud-aware sign-out action and moves
every visible control to it.
> - The benefit is one safe sign-out path in Cloud and unchanged local
sign-out in self-hosted deployments.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #2073. That older PR adds a separate company-settings sign-out
surface. This change centralizes the existing account, company, and
instance-settings surfaces and preserves the self-hosted behavior
described there.

**What happened?**

Visible sign-out controls used separate implementations. A Cloud-managed
control could call the app-local sign-out endpoint and open the local
auth page. That path did not enter the Cloud-owned logout sequence for
the tenant, Cloud, and identity sessions.

**Expected behavior**

Every visible sign-out control must use one action. Cloud-managed
instances must navigate the top-level window to the same-origin
`/cloud/logout` route without a local sign-out call first. Authenticated
self-hosted instances must keep the local sign-out API and cache
invalidation behavior.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Open a Cloud-managed tenant.
2. Use the account menu, company menu, or instance-settings sign-out
control.
3. Observe that independently implemented controls can enter different
sign-out paths.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The problem reproduces at `656ecfa585b31938e2685ffab3db22e794474803`.

**Deployment mode**

Cloud-managed tenant built from source. The regression tests also cover
authenticated self-hosted mode.

## What Changed

- Added `useSignOut` as the shared Cloud-aware sign-out action.
- Navigated Cloud-managed sessions to `/cloud/logout` exactly once
without calling local auth first.
- Preserved local API sign-out and cache invalidation for authenticated
self-hosted sessions.
- Migrated the account menu, company menu, and instance general settings
to the shared action.
- Added focused tests for mode selection, menu closure, pending state,
failure state, and settings behavior.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/hooks/useSignOut.test.tsx
ui/src/components/SidebarAccountMenu.test.tsx
ui/src/components/SidebarCompanyMenu.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/InstanceGeneralSettings.test.tsx` — 26 tests passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — passed.
- `git diff --check origin/master..HEAD` — passed.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change centralizes existing behavior and adds no schema,
API, telemetry, or style-token changes.
- Cloud mode depends on the existing health decision. Tests pin both
mode branches.
- The change does not alter Fetch Metadata, CSRF, cookie, prefetch, or
return-URL protections owned by the Cloud logout route.

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

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, GPT-5. The runtime does not expose a more specific model
ID or context-window size. The agent used high-reasoning mode, shell
tools, and API tools.

DottaandPaperclip 5858ccb981 feat: make in-app features cloud-aware (#10850)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Operators use the same board application in self-hosted and
Paperclip Cloud deployments.
> - A Cloud tenant contains one company, so an in-app company switch
does not change the active Cloud stack.
> - Cloud operators need the sidebar and company surfaces to use the
signed-in user's stack portfolio.
> - The server must derive Cloud identity and links from trusted
instance context instead of client input.
> - This pull request adds canonical Cloud context, a trusted stack
portfolio proxy, and Cloud-aware navigation.
> - The benefit is consistent stack switching on Cloud while self-hosted
company behavior stays unchanged.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting: server REST routes and the React board UI.

**Problem or motivation**

A Cloud-managed instance contains one company. The existing company
switcher could only switch records inside that tenant. It could not move
the operator to another Cloud stack. The existing header also gave long
organization names too little width.

**Proposed solution**

Expose a canonical public Cloud context in health data. Add a trusted
server proxy for the current user's stack portfolio. Use that data in
the board UI to switch stacks with top-level navigation. Keep the
existing company behavior on self-hosted instances. Move search into the
navigation and keep long organization names inside the sidebar panel.

**Alternatives considered**

An in-app `/stacks` route was rejected because Cloud tenant hosts
reserve that path and stack selection must wake or authenticate another
tenant. Client-supplied user identity was rejected because the server
can derive the trusted Cloud actor.

**Roadmap alignment**

This change advances the Cloud deployments milestone. It keeps the
product local-first and Cloud-ready without changing the self-hosted
mental model.

## What Changed

- Added canonical Cloud instance context and public health metadata.
- Added a Cloud-only stack portfolio proxy with trusted actor forwarding
and per-user caching.
- Prevented normal company creation on Cloud-managed instances.
- Switched the sidebar and Companies page from company actions to stack
actions on Cloud.
- Added full-page stack navigation and Cloud create-stack links.
- Moved search into the sidebar navigation so the organization name
keeps more width.
- Added truncation and hover recovery for long organization and stack
names.
- Added server and UI regression coverage for Cloud and self-hosted
behavior.
- Updated the implementation specification for the Cloud contracts.

## Verification

- `node scripts/check-token-gates.mjs` passed. All three token gates are
clean.
- `pnpm --dir server exec vitest run src/__tests__/health.test.ts
src/__tests__/cloud-instance.test.ts src/__tests__/cloud-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/company-cloud-floor.test.ts
src/__tests__/company-portability-routes.test.ts` passed: 5 files and 66
tests.
- `pnpm --dir ui exec vitest run
src/components/SidebarCompanyMenu.test.tsx` passed: 1 file and 11 tests.
- Pre-PR QA report `7da87ca7` passed all 8 acceptance criteria with real
HTTP route factories and real Chromium screenshots in Cloud and
self-hosted modes.
- Security reviews passed for the canonical Cloud context and stack
portfolio proxy.

## Risks

- Cloud stack switching depends on the configured Cloud application and
tenant portfolio URLs.
- The new health `cloud` block is public by design, but it contains only
canonical public instance metadata.
- The stack proxy fails closed on self-hosted instances and derives the
user identity from the trusted actor.
- Self-hosted navigation and company creation retain their existing
paths and behavior.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, model `gpt-5`. The run used reasoning, repository tools,

its context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip ec84eb7342 fix(ui): defer Inbox re-sort to attention boundaries (#10623)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The Inbox lists work items by recent activity.
> - An archive changes activity data and can change the computed order.
> - The list can then move rows under the pointer during a fast archive
sequence.
> - The Inbox must keep its shown order while the operator is engaged.
> - This pull request adopts fresh order only at an idle, visibility, or
view-change boundary.
> - The benefit is a stable Inbox that still receives fresh data and new
items.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened**

The Inbox re-sorts while an operator archives items quickly. An archive
can lower a parent group's activity time. Unrelated rows then move, and
the row under the pointer can change.

**Expected behavior**

Keep the shown order stable while the operator works in the Inbox.
Insert new items at their computed positions. Adopt a fresh order after
an idle period, after a long hidden-tab interval, or when the view
changes.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Open the Inbox on the Mine tab with several items, including nested
items.
2. Archive several items quickly with the pointer or keyboard.
3. Observe rows move before the archive sequence is complete.

**Deployment mode**

Any deployment. This change affects only the web UI.

**Additional context**

This PR supersedes the closed subset PR #10621. It keeps the full change
in one review.

## What Changed

- Added an order-pin utility for sections, root rows, non-issue items,
and nested children.
- Kept archived rows in place for the existing five-second undo
interval.
- Added an attention-boundary hook for idle, visibility, and view-change
commits.
- Connected pointer, wheel, hover, keyboard, and archive interactions to
the idle boundary.
- Made idle commits repeat while the Inbox stays idle.
- Made view changes adopt the fresh order in the same render.
- Added unit and integration coverage for order pins and attention
boundaries.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/hooks/useInboxSortAttention.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/inboxOrderPin.test.ts ui/src/pages/Inbox.test.tsx` — 33 tests
passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm build` — passed.
- `pnpm test:run` — 3,429 tests passed, 2 skipped, and 1 unrelated
server test failed. The isolated failure expects `issue_commented` but
current master records `heartbeat.scheduling_suppressed` in
`plugin-orchestration-apis.test.ts`.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change is client-only and does not change the sort
algorithm.
- A bad pin can show an old order until the next boundary. The tests
cover repeated idle commits and immediate view changes.

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

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

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

**Subsystem affected**

UI (issue detail page).

**Problem or motivation**

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

**Proposed solution**

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

**Alternatives considered**

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

**Roadmap alignment**

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip c111ee4cb3 feat(server): add per-user document stars (#9952)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source control plane people use to manage
AI-agent companies and their work.
> - Artifacts and documents are first-class outputs, but users need a
personal way to keep important documents easy to find.
> - Existing resource memberships already model per-user starred
projects and agents with company scoping and activity logging.
> - Documents lacked the equivalent membership model, route, and
artifact filtering behavior.
> - The shared membership contract also needs to remain safe for
existing UI project/agent mutation helpers when documents become a
recognized resource type.
> - This pull request extends the existing resource-membership system
with per-user document stars and a starred artifacts view.
> - The benefit is a company-scoped, idempotent server foundation for a
dedicated starred-documents experience without weakening authorization
or artifact filtering semantics.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

### Problem / Motivation

Board users cannot star individual documents, and the company artifacts
API cannot return only the current user's starred documents.

### Proposed Solution

Add company/user-scoped document memberships, a board-only document star
route, document membership data in the shared contract, and a
`starred=true` artifacts filter.

### Alternatives Considered

A document column was rejected because stars are per-user; a separate
star API was rejected because projects and agents already use resource
memberships.

### Roadmap Alignment

This extends the existing Artifacts & Work Products roadmap area and
does not duplicate another open pull request found in the repository
search.

## What Changed

- Added the `document_memberships` schema and migration with
company/user/document uniqueness and starred ordering.
- Extended shared resource-membership and artifact-query contracts for
documents and `starred=true`.
- Added company-scoped document star/unstar service and board-only route
behavior with activity logging.
- Added starred document artifact filtering, including user-authored
documents, document kinds, cursor ordering, and incompatible-kind
handling.
- Preserved idempotency under concurrent star requests and synchronized
UI membership defaults/helpers with the expanded contract.
- Added focused shared, route, service, and UI regression coverage.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/resource-memberships.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-artifacts-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/resource-memberships-routes.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/components/SidebarAgents.test.tsx
ui/src/components/SidebarProjects.test.tsx
ui/src/components/SidebarStarredProjects.test.tsx`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db check:migrations`
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm test:run`
- `pnpm build`

## Risks

- The migration adds a new membership table and non-concurrent indexes;
migration safety gates pass with the repository's established policy.
- The starred artifacts query intentionally returns only documents and
relaxes the normal agent-authored/system-kind predicates for documents
the current user explicitly starred.
- Document membership mutations remain board-user-only; agent callers
receive no document-star capability.

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

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex CLI; runtime model ID and context-window size were not
exposed to this session. Reasoning, repository tool use, code execution,
and test execution were enabled.

DottaandPaperclip 59eee4829c fix(inbox): stop archived items from resurfacing (#9931)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the control plane operators use to coordinate AI-agent
companies and review work needing attention.
> - The Inbox is the operator-facing surface that aggregates tasks
requiring attention across server state and shared client polling.
> - Archiving a task optimistically removed it, but ordinary background
activity and stale polling responses could make it reappear seconds
later.
> - The server therefore needs to distinguish genuine user-attention
events from routine agent/system activity.
> - The client also needs a bounded local archive guard across every
Inbox query path while the server mutation and in-flight polls settle.
> - This pull request fixes both resurrection paths and adds
race-focused regression coverage.
> - The benefit is stable archive behavior without hiding a genuine
archive failure after reconciliation or reload.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

### Pre-submission checklist

- [x] Searched existing open and closed issues and pull requests; no
duplicate implementation was found.
- [x] Reproduced on `master` before this branch.
- [x] Confirmed this is a Paperclip core bug, not adapter or provider
behavior.

### What happened?

Archiving an Inbox task hid it optimistically, then background refresh
activity could insert it back into the list seconds later.

### Expected behavior

A successfully archived task remains hidden during normal polling. A
genuine failed archive may become visible again after reconciliation or
reload.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Open Inbox with a visible task.
2. Archive the task.
3. Wait for shared polling or routine agent activity to refresh task
data.
4. Observe the archived task reappear without a hard page refresh.

### Paperclip version or commit

`master` before this branch.

### Deployment mode

Built from source using the local development application.

### Installation method

Built from source (`pnpm`).

### Agent adapter(s) involved

Not adapter-specific; this is a core Inbox bug.

### Database mode

Not database-mode-specific.

### Access context

Board (human operator).

### Additional context

The failure had independent server and client causes: routine activity
could resurface archived rows server-side, while stale shared-poll
responses could bypass optimistic client removal.

## What Changed

- Restrict server-side Inbox resurfacing to explicit user-attention
events rather than any issue activity write.
- Add a bounded client-side archive guard with confirmation, failure
restoration, and cache reconciliation behavior.
- Apply the guard to Inbox rendering, badge counts, optimistic cache
updates, and shared-poll result application.
- Classify the generic compact Inbox query so stale shared-poll data
cannot bypass the guard.
- Add server visibility-matrix tests and UI race-condition regression
tests.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/hooks/useSharedPolling.test.ts src/lib/inboxArchiveCache.test.ts
src/pages/Inbox.test.tsx` — 25 passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/issues-service.test.ts` — 107 passed.
- Branch rebased cleanly onto current `origin/master` before push.

## Risks

- Low-to-moderate behavioral risk: resurfacing is intentionally
narrower, so the server tests cover human comments, mentions,
interactions, and status transitions that must still regain attention.
- The client guard is bounded and cleared on mutation failure, limiting
the risk of hiding a task whose archive did not persist.
- No schema, migration, public API, workflow, dependency-lock, or
visual-token changes.

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

## Model Used

- Anthropic Claude via Claude Code (`claude_local`; prior
implementation/review run, exact underlying model ID and context window
were not retained in the handoff metadata), with repository tool use and
test execution.
- OpenAI `gpt-5.5` via Codex CLI for final review repair and PR
preparation, with reasoning, repository editing, GitHub tooling, and
code execution.

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

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

**What happened?**

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

**Expected behavior**

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

**Steps to reproduce**

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

**Paperclip version or commit**

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

**Deployment mode**

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

## Risks

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

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

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip a116713b9a feat(mcp) [split 6/8]: add Tools and Profiles UI foundation (#9561)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Governed MCP access spans contracts, runtime enforcement, adapters,
UI surfaces, and operator verification
> - The parity reference PR #9534 is too large for effective automated
or human review
> - The feature therefore needs a linear stack whose individual diffs
stay below the 100-file review limit
> - This pull request is split 6/8 and focuses on UI API, shared
components, and Tools/Profile surfaces
> - The benefit is a standalone, testable review boundary while
preserving byte-for-byte parity at the top of the stack

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- Related parity reference: #9534
- Problem: Operators need typed clients and administration surfaces that
compile independently before navigation exposes them.
- Proposed solution: Adds UI APIs, hooks, libraries, shared components,
Tools/Profiles pages, and the plugin settings consumer required by the
new company-scoped API.
- Alternatives considered: keeping #9534 as one 403-file review, or
rewriting the feature to manufacture seams; both were rejected in favor
of path extraction plus compile-driven boundary moves.
- Roadmap alignment: this advances the existing governed MCP/tool-access
work already represented by #9534; it does not introduce a separate
roadmap initiative.
- Stack position: base branch is
`pap10341-split/05-runtime-integration`.
- Merge policy: merge bottom-up, in order, only after the complete
eight-PR stack has been reviewed and the top-of-stack parity gate
remains empty.
- Requested review: UXDesigner sanity pass on Tools/Profile surfaces;
Greptile on every PR.

## What Changed

- Adds UI APIs, hooks, libraries, shared components, Tools/Profiles
pages, and the plugin settings consumer required by the new
company-scoped API.
- Keeps this PR below 100 changed files and independently typecheckable.
- Preserves the final tree from #9534 when combined with the other seven
stack levels.

## Verification

- `pnpm typecheck`
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — all gates clean
- Focused UI Vitest run with `NODE_ENV=test` — 28 files, 183 tests
passed

## Risks

- Large dead-code UI additions can drift from activation routes; PR 7
supplies the registration layer and top-level parity catches omissions.
- Stack risk: merging out of order can expose incomplete layers;
mitigate by following the documented bottom-up merge policy.
- Parity risk: later edits to an intermediate branch can drift from
#9534; mitigate by re-running the empty top-of-stack diff before merge.

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

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, exact model ID `gpt-5.4`; runtime-managed context
window; medium reasoning with repository, shell, Git, GitHub CLI, and
code-execution tools enabled.

8a0db228a6 perf(ui): improve Decisions scrolling performance (#9468)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Operators use the Decisions page to review an uncapped attention
feed across active, snoozed, and dismissed items
> - Large feeds mounted every row eagerly, and routine interactions
re-rendered the full queue
> - That made initial paint and scrolling progressively slower as
decision history accumulated
> - This pull request bounds rendering, stabilizes row props, and lets
off-screen rows skip layout and paint work
> - The benefit is a responsive Decisions page even for companies with
large attention histories

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

### What happened?

Opening `/decisions` for a company with a large attention history
eagerly mounted every visible-feed row. Expanding, selecting,
dismissing, snoozing, or restoring an item could also re-render the
entire queue.

### Expected behavior

The page should render a bounded initial window, progressively reveal
more rows near the scroll boundary, and avoid re-rendering unaffected
rows during interactions.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Populate a company with hundreds of attention items.
2. Open `/decisions`.
3. Scroll and interact with individual rows.
4. Observe increasing initial render, layout, paint, and interaction
cost on the previous implementation.

### Paperclip version or commit

Reproduced on `master` before this PR.

### Deployment and installation

Local development, built from source. This is a core UI issue, not
adapter- or database-specific.

### Additional context

Searched open public issues and PRs; no duplicate was found.

## What Changed

- Added a pure `planAttentionRenderRows` helper that allocates one
render budget across active groups and open snoozed/dismissed curtains
in document order.
- Render 50 rows initially and add 100 more when the Decisions page
approaches the scroll boundary.
- Memoized `AttentionQueueRow`, stabilized parent callbacks and inbox
dismissal actions, and passed row items through a shared expand
callback.
- Added `content-visibility: auto` and intrinsic containment so
accumulated off-screen rows avoid unnecessary layout and paint work.
- Added render-plan coverage and a regression test proving identical row
props do not re-render after a parent update.

## Verification

- `pnpm -C ui typecheck`
- `pnpm -C ui exec vitest run src/lib/attention.test.ts
src/components/AttentionQueueRow.test.tsx
src/components/Sidebar.test.tsx src/pages/Inbox.test.tsx` — 96 tests
passed
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — all gates clean

## Risks

- Low risk: the change is UI-only and does not alter API or database
contracts.
- The main behavioral risk is incorrect row-budget accounting across
collapsed groups or open curtains; the pure planner has focused tests
for ordering, truncation, and collapsed/closed sections.
- Progressive rendering means rows beyond the current budget are
intentionally absent until scrolling nears the boundary, matching the
existing Issues list pattern.

> This is a targeted performance fix and does not overlap planned core
feature work in `ROADMAP.md`.

## Model Used

- Anthropic Claude Fable 5 assisted with the implementation using
repository tools and code execution.
- OpenAI Codex `gpt-5.6-sol` prepared and verified the PR with high
reasoning effort, repository tools, shell execution, and
GitHub/Paperclip API access. The runtime did not expose a context-window
size.

36ec79c196 feat: add attention queue and Decisions surface (#9380)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the control plane for autonomous AI companies, where
operators need a reliable way to find and act on work awaiting their
input.
> - The attention and issue-thread interaction subsystems expose those
decision points across server APIs and the board UI.
> - The previous navigation and interaction presentation left these
actions fragmented and did not offer a controlled rollout for the
Decisions surface.
> - This branch adds the attention feed, richer interaction cards,
grouping, dismiss/snooze behavior, and a gated Decisions sidebar entry.
> - It also keeps experimental settings and API contracts synchronized,
with an idempotent migration for the new dismissal state.
> - This pull request delivers the complete, tested attention/Decisions
experience as one reviewable unit.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- Adds an operator-focused attention queue and Decisions experience:
grouped decision cards, semantic interaction actions, dismiss/snooze
handling, resilient interaction states, and an experimental flag to
control the Decisions navigation entry.


## Feature Context

### Problem or Motivation

Operators currently have to hunt across approvals, interactions, failed
runs, and budget alerts to find decisions that need their action.

### Proposed Solution

Provide a gated Decisions attention queue that groups actionable items,
supports direct resolution, and preserves operator control through
dismiss and snooze actions.

### Alternatives Considered

Keep separate, source-specific views only; this leaves cross-cutting
operator decisions fragmented and harder to prioritize.

### Roadmap Alignment

This improves the V1 control-plane operator workflow by making pending
governed actions discoverable in one company-scoped surface.

## What Changed

- Added server attention-feed services, routes, interaction handling,
dismiss/snooze support, and an idempotent `0145` inbox-dismissal
migration.
- Added shared attention, inbox-dismissal, and experimental-settings
contracts.
- Added Decisions/attention UI, interaction-card states, sidebar
badge/navigation integration, grouping, keyboard support, and Storybook
coverage.
- Added tests for attention behavior, thread interactions, settings
normalization, dismissals, and API behavior.
- Removed generated screenshots from the final PR diff and rebased the
branch onto current `master`.

## Verification

- `pnpm check:token-gates` — passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/shared/src/issue-thread-interactions.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/attention-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/inbox-dismissals.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interactions-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interaction-routes.test.ts
ui/src/lib/attention.test.ts
ui/src/components/AttentionQueueRow.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueThreadInteractionCard.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/InstanceExperimentalSettings.test.tsx` — passed: 158 tests
across 9 focused files.
- GitHub Actions for `ad636f560`: build and typecheck/release-registry
have passed; remaining general-server and Greptile checks are in
progress.

## Risks

- Moderate: this is a cross-layer attention/interaction feature with a
new migration and navigation behavior.
- The `enableDecisions` experimental setting defaults to off, limiting
rollout impact.
- Existing dismissal data is backfilled to `dismiss`; the migration is
idempotent and uses guarded constraint creation.

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

## Model Used

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