DottaandPaperclip 985d3b12b6 fix(runner): explain rejected task monitor arguments (#16868)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents use task monitors to resume work after a future check.
> - The runner rejects monitor arguments that fail the tool schema.
> - It returned a generic error with no field or repair guidance.
> - An agent could treat a repairable call as a scheduling outage and
block its task.
> - This pull request adds safe repair guidance and shows the nested
request shape.
> - Agents can correct the call and confirm a saved schedule before they
yield.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #15446, #16686.

**What happened?**

A rejected native `set_task_monitor` call returned `invalid_tool_call`
with only “Paperclip rejected this semantic tool call.” The agent could
not identify the invalid field. A retry could fail again and leave
unfinished work without a scheduled wake.

**Expected behavior**

Reject invalid arguments before any mutation. Give the provider bounded
schema locations and clear repair guidance. A corrected call must save a
monitor and allow one wake without duplicate effects.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Call `set_task_monitor` with `idempotencyKey`, `nextCheckAt`, and
`notes` at the top level.
2. The schema rejects the call because scheduling fields belong inside
`monitor`.
3. Before this change, the provider received no guidance about the
required shape.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced against master `35c75b56d4` with a failing Rust regression.

**Deployment mode**

Source checkout. This affects the native runner tool bridge.

## What Changed

- Add monitor-specific repair guidance to the runner's existing safe
schema error path.
- Keep feedback within 512 bytes and omit submitted values and unknown
field names.
- Show the nested monitor request in the production tool description.
Refresh generated contracts and catalog identities.
- Test flat and nested invalid input, private value handling, and
unchanged authorization errors.
- Test rejection, correction with the same key, saved schedule and
audit, receipt replay, and one timer wake with real PostgreSQL and the
native tool authority.
- Update execution documentation and the task verification recipes.

## Verification

- Red/green: the Rust provider error regression failed on master because
monitor repair guidance was absent. It passed after the fix.
- Passed: 29 PostgreSQL monitor and scheduler integration tests. These
use the real tool authority and scheduler, with a no-op process agent
for wake delivery.
- Passed: the native Codex server vertical-slice test. It runs the
rebuilt Runner binary with a fake provider and checks durable results
and session resume.
- Passed: map structure checks, Rust formatting, and `git diff --check`.
- Passed locally: full repository `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and
all 392 Rust library unit tests.
- Passed on commit `3b667ad24763c1828edd48f56ef7a10766aeb946`: [CI run
39290889768](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39290889768),
including all server, Runner, serialized, browser, typecheck, build, and
canary gates. Across the PR, 56 checks passed and four conditional
checks were skipped. No check remains pending or failed.
- Greptile: 5/5 on that exact commit. The check concluded success, with
no review comments or unresolved threads.
- The duplicate local `pnpm test:run` attempt did not complete. It was
stopped after the full CI suite passed; it is not counted as a local
full-suite pass.
- The first PostgreSQL attempt could not bind localhost inside the shell
sandbox. It passed with normal localhost access. The first broader Rust
attempt had 37 socket-permission failures and 355 passes; all 392 passed
with localhost access and no code change.
- Live model recovery was not run. Local execution policy did not
authorize an extra acceptance run through the signed-in provider
account. This PR does not include a deployment or recovery of an
existing task.

## Risks

- Error feedback must not reveal submitted values. Tests cover private
values, unknown keys, nested constraints, length bounds, and unchanged
generic authorization errors.
- This changes guidance only. It does not relax the schema, retry calls
automatically, or change scheduling authority.
- A new runner binary and refreshed provider contract must reach the
target instance before agents receive this guidance.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6, with reasoning, tool use, and code execution. The
exact runtime suffix and context window size are not exposed in this
session.

DottaandPaperclip d20cb69ce5 fix(heartbeat): preserve active retries when comments arrive (#16855)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and their work.
> - Heartbeat retries preserve task ownership after a recoverable
failure.
> - The issue read model includes retries that are scheduled, queued, or
running.
> - The human comment route treated every retry in that model as parked
work.
> - A normal status comment could therefore cancel a running
continuation and return its task to Todo.
> - This pull request limits comment supersession to parked retries and
checks that state at the cancellation fence.
> - The agent can keep working when a person adds context. Explicit Stop
and Interrupt remain available.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A Board comment on an in-progress task cancelled its running recovery
continuation. The handler read a live retry from
`getCurrentScheduledRetry` but did not check its status. The
cancellation also forced workspace recovery when copy-back did not
complete.

**Expected behavior**

A comment must preserve queued and running execution. Only a retry that
is still `scheduled_retry` may be superseded. If promotion wins the
race, the comment must keep the task in progress and follow the normal
wake path.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Let a task retry advance from `scheduled_retry` to `running`.
2. Keep its retry reason and source run identity in the stored row.
3. Post a normal human comment, without an Interrupt request.
4. Observe the old handler cancel the run and move the task to Todo.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on master base `9966f31bee`. The staging incident served
`f3cd3f4ea89539b68410841d39ec15a5c626007f`.

**Deployment mode**

Staging server with a remote runner. The defect is in the core comment
and cancellation path.

Refs #16835 and #16843. Those repairs cover runner health and workspace
preservation. This change prevents a normal comment from requesting the
wrong cancellation. Related #9732 promotes human wakes on parked
retries; it does not protect a retry that is already running.

## What Changed

- Check the live retry status in both comment routes: POST comments and
PATCH issue with a comment.
- Add an optional expected-status fence to cancellation. A concurrent
promotion or terminal outcome returns a no-op result.
- Make due-retry promotion honor a cancellation claim under its issue
and run row locks. A scheduler cannot promote work after cancellation
has won.
- Finish persisted cancellations of parked retries through the existing
startup and periodic recovery sweep. Preserve their original request and
retry a failed settlement without starting provider work.
- Keep the task active when guarded cancellation does not win. Do not
record a cancellation that did not occur.
- Add route regressions, real PostgreSQL race tests, and pending-retry
and explicit Stop safety coverage.
- Exercise both normal HTTP comment routes with real services, stored
Board membership, PostgreSQL, and a live child process. Assert that the
process can still perform work, the task keeps its original execution,
and no second executor starts.
- Document the comment supersession contract and update the task
feature/access maps with the local regression coverage and deployed
acceptance recipe.

## Verification

- Before the fix, all four POST/PATCH regressions cancelled queued or
running work.
- Before the fix, the real PostgreSQL race test cancelled a retry that
became running after lookup.
- The comment-route suite passes **103 tests**. The final dispatch,
cancellation, restart recovery and HTTP/live-process suites pass **119
tests**, for **222 affected tests** across these runs. They cover
comment delivery, both sides of the promotion race, concurrent terminal
outcomes, pending retries, explicit Stop, and a live process that can
continue work.
- Command: `node node_modules/vitest/vitest.mjs run
server/src/__tests__/issue-comment-reopen-routes.test.ts
server/src/services/heartbeat/run-control.test.ts`.
- The normal HTTP/live-process acceptance suite passes all **14 tests**,
including both comment endpoints with stored Board membership and
deterministic wakeup teardown.
- Review exposed a second race after the cancellation claim. Its new
PostgreSQL test failed before the dispatch guard with `promoted` and
passes afterward with `not_promoted`, followed by completed
cancellation.
- A real PostgreSQL constraint interrupts the terminal cancellation
write after its intent commits. The assembled recovery service failed to
settle that row before the repair. Afterward a fresh service settles it,
clears its task lock, cancels its saved wake, preserves the original
request and leaves unrelated parked retries alone. A repeated database
failure preserves the intent for a later successful sweep; a second
successful sweep adds no duplicate event.
- Full `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass. Server typecheck and
build pass again after the final server-only review fix. A local
full-suite attempt started on `f8773bf` did not return an overall
result; its log is preserved and no local full-suite pass is claimed.
The new recovery change passes the focused suites and fresh server
typecheck/build. Latest-head CI on
`8f928adee67c089e1ac405d2ad3b169eedb8da27` is green: the full PR
workflow and commitperclip review passed; only the two optional
Storybook jobs skipped.
- Greptile reviewed final head
`8f928adee67c089e1ac405d2ad3b169eedb8da27` at **5/5**, with no
unresolved findings. All actual latest-head CI checks passed; the two
optional Storybook jobs skipped.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` passes after the map updates (34 areas,
172 capability IDs); it checks structure only.
- Fixed-revision staging acceptance is pending deployment. The original
workspace remains held and its latest source checkpoint is backed up and
verified.

## Risks

- A promoted retry must keep its execution and ownership when a comment
arrives. The database status predicate and route no-op handling enforce
this at the race boundary.
- A cancellation intent must prevent promotion without leaving work
parked forever after a restart. The recovery sweep consumes at most 20
such intents per pass through guarded cancellation, and a failed
settlement keeps its intent for retry.
- A parked retry must still accept fresh instructions. Its existing
cancellation and wake behavior remains covered.
- Ordinary Stop and Interrupt calls omit the expected-status option.
Their cancellation authority is unchanged and remains covered by the
run-control suite.
- No schema migration or API request contract changes are required.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` in Codex, with extra-high reasoning, tool use, and
code execution. The session does not expose its context-window limit.

DottaandPaperclip 016e40d532 fix(recovery): preserve shutdown export ownership through finalizer drain (#16843)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Legacy adapters must save sandbox files before Paperclip releases
their source.
> - Graceful shutdown gave each adapter a shared 30-second settlement
wait.
> - When that wait ended, cleanup could stop the sandbox while the
adapter still exported files.
> - That race created a restore failure and blocked the next turn.
> - This pull request keeps export ownership through the finalizer drain
and renews its cleanup fence.
> - A successful late export can release its source and schedule one
bounded continuation.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15857. This corrects the timeout path introduced by the shutdown
settlement fence.
Refs #16478. That repair clears verified historical holds; this change
prevents an active export from losing its source.
Refs #16835. That merged fix handles remote native runner ownership.
This change handles legacy shutdown settlement.

## What Changed

- Keep a late adapter settlement in the shared execution finalizer set.
Wait for it before lease release, recovery classification, and retry
scheduling.
- Renew the exact owned settlement fence every 10 seconds. Use a
30-second lease, one renewal in flight, a one-second database lock
timeout, and a five-second statement timeout. Report bounded failure
categories without raw database errors or credentials.
- Refuse ordinary cleanup while the local adapter still owns settlement.
Preserve the explicit owner stop-and-retain path.
- Give the finalizer drain a further shared 30-second wait after the
initial shutdown drain.
- Document the ownership rule, the acceptance recipe, and the
controller-loss limit.

## Verification

- Red before the repair: the database-backed expired-wait regression
expected cleanup denial but received permission to stop the still-owned
source.
- Green on `615a4382c5`: all 526 tests in `recovery.test.ts`,
`legacy-workspace-restore-recovery.test.ts`, `shutdown.test.ts`, and
`heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts` passed.
- The assembled heartbeat regression passed. It verifies no early
release or retry, joining the late owner, successful cleanup, one
durable scheduled continuation, and no duplicate after service reload.
- Safety coverage includes other-controller fencing, controller loss,
exact source retention, stop-only cancellation, completion winning the
status race, and real database lock contention during renewal.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and `node scripts/check-maps.mjs`
passed on the final source revision.
- A broad local `pnpm test:run` crossed the rebase and reported eight
companion supervision failures. It was stopped and its log retained. The
complete companion file then passed all 753 tests on current source.
This is not a passing full local suite; current-head CI covers the
complete repository checks.
- The 34 recovery tests include real lock-timeout classification and
credential-shaped error redaction.
- Current-head CI: 53 checks passed; two optional Storybook checks
skipped. Greptile is 5/5 on `615a4382c5`; no unresolved review threads.
- Live sandbox acceptance remains unverified. Three disposable
local-controller/Daytona attempts used legacy Codex ACP, `gpt-6-astra`,
API-key authentication, and the verified image
`ghcr.io/paperclipai/paperclip-daytona-runner@sha256:a2bd08cefb68d9217bdd75cf87a6b51f1705b18a4796eff3f97b2726a548b8fb`.
ACP initialization exited before model execution on macOS Node 26.4.0
and again on Node 24.21.0; one attempt exposed a local process-session
socket `ECONNRESET`. That does not establish the transport failure's
root cause. No attempt reached the delayed export or second turn, so
this PR remains draft pending faithful live acceptance. Probe setup
defects were retained separately from product failures, and all
test-owned sandboxes were cleaned up.

## Risks

- Shutdown can spend up to 30 more seconds joining finalizers. The
shipped Compose stop grace remains 90 seconds.
- Renewal adds at most one database operation per owned run every 10
seconds during shutdown. Lock and statement deadlines bound database
contention. The local adapter still protects its source if renewal
fails.
- Controller death or an export that outlives the whole process still
needs retained-source repair. This change does not reconstruct a legacy
export after process death or clear historical failed-restore holds.
- No schema or public API changes. Native restart ownership, approval
gates, and retry limits retain their existing behavior.
- This PR has not been deployed. It does not recover an existing
retained sandbox by itself.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository inspection, code
execution, and test tools. The exact backend model identifier and
context window were not exposed to this session.

DottaandPaperclip f3cd3f4ea8 fix(runner): require confirmed exit before remote replacement (#16835)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Remote runs need one runner to own their process identity and
listener.
> - A health request can fail while that runner continues to work.
> - The active monitor treated a failed request as a process exit.
> - Recovery could then launch another runner against the occupied
listener.
> - This pull request retries health reads and requires proof of exit
before replacement.
> - A brief outage can recover on the same runner without replaying
agent work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #16341 adds remote recovery diagnostics. Refs: #16686 retries
verification when restoring a saved remote session. This change applies
the shared probe policy to active process supervision.

**What happened?**

The active remote monitor settled its completion promise after a
timed-out or rejected health request. The transport treated that result
as an exit and started process recovery. An existing runner could still
own the listener. Replacement then failed with
`runner_ingress_bind_conflict` until the reconnect deadline expired.
Missing or changed ownership markers also did not prove that the old
process had exited.

**Expected behavior**

Retry transient read failures on the same runner. Require a matching
ownership marker and proof of process exit before replacement. Preserve
uncertainty when identity or liveness cannot be verified.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a remote runner and leave its listener alive.
2. Make one process-health request time out or reject.
3. Observe completion and the restart decision. Before this change, the
monitor settles while the process is alive, and the restart wrapper
permits another launch.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The defect was reproduced on master at `6e89919631`. The patch is based
on current master at `c6a0cf4bce`.

## What Changed

- Reuse the bounded read-only recovery probe for active supervision.
Retry up to three reads within 30 seconds.
- Check the saved process generation when available. Accept only the
specific process-not-running receipt as exit proof.
- Add an exit-confirmation contract to remote process handles. Require
it for restart and shutdown completion. Preserve the cause of
supervision errors.
- Test transient failures, exhausted retries, conflicting identities,
real listening processes, and an authenticated runner with a fake
provider. Keep confirmed-exit replacement covered.
- Document the recovery policy and coverage limits in the execution
contract and maps.

## Verification

- Red: the timeout and transport-error regressions failed before the
patch because completion settled while the runner was alive. The
restart-guard regression also failed because replacement was allowed.
- Green: 14 server supervision cases passed, including a real listening
process. All 120 shared control-plane tests passed. Focused Runner tests
passed for authenticated live-runner fault injection and confirmed-exit
replacement.
- Review regression: a replacement-health test first failed because its
error cause was lost. It passed after preserving the cause and detail.
The four affected transport cases and Runner typecheck then passed.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` passed for 35 areas and 176 capability
IDs.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed locally. The sequential
local full-suite run was stopped before completion; no local full-suite
pass is claimed. Final commit `bcc1b1d339` passed the complete CI
matrix: 55 checks passed and two optional Storybook checks were skipped.
Greptile is 5/5 with no unresolved conversations. The PR has no merge
conflicts.
- The first real-listener attempt could not bind inside the execution
sandbox. The same test passed with local socket access. The first
package-test invocation used the root configuration and selected no
tests; the package configuration ran all selected tests.
- CI attempt 1: nine test jobs were cancelled together at 12:54:59 UTC.
Their test steps report cancellation. The build and uninterrupted jobs
passed. The interrupted jobs were retried once. That retry exposed one
confirmed-exit message assertion failure in the Runner shard; the other
jobs passed. The compatibility correction preserves the prior message.
The failing case and four recovery cases then passed locally. The
complete CI matrix passed after that correction.
- No live sandbox restoration, deployment, or historical task recovery
is claimed.

## Risks

- A persistent outage now ends supervision with explicit exit
uncertainty. It cannot authorize a competing process. Existing ownership
and workspace recovery checks remain required.
- Health reads can take up to 30 seconds before reporting an unavailable
runner. Retries are read-only and bounded.
- Local launchers keep their existing completion contract. No database
migration or public API change is required.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, tool use, and code
execution. The exact serving snapshot and context-window size are not
exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 1a79c8bdc7 fix(runtime): honor provider startup budgets on sandbox resume (#16802)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their execution environments.
> - Follow-up runs reuse saved sandbox computers to keep their
workspace.
> - Starting a stopped or archived computer can take more than one
minute.
> - Acquisition already uses the provider's startup budget, but reuse
imposed a separate one-minute deadline.
> - This pull request gives resume the configured or declared provider
startup budget.
> - The benefit is that a healthy slow start can continue on the same
computer.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A follow-up run failed during setup with `ReusableSandboxResumeError`.
The saved computer became ready just after the host stopped waiting. The
environment had no explicit timeout. Its provider declared a five-minute
startup default, which the resume path ignored.

**Expected behavior**

Resume must honor the configured startup budget or the provider's
declared default. It must retain the same lease. Failed or uncertain
resumes must keep the saved computer.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Use a reusable sandbox provider with a startup budget longer than one
minute.
2. Retain its lease and start a follow-up run.
3. Make provider resume finish after 61 seconds, within that budget.
4. Observe that the old host rejects at 60 seconds.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on `aaeff418cf72341c674ff3393cd94f40dc4855f6`.

**Deployment mode**

Hosted sandbox execution. The regression uses a local isolated
PostgreSQL database and controlled worker RPC timers.

Searched open and closed PRs and open issues for sandbox resume and
timeout fixes. No duplicate fix was found. Related acquisition timeout
handling already exists on the base branch.

## What Changed

- Use the provider's declared acquisition timeout when no explicit
startup timeout exists.
- Apply the resolved RPC budget to the shared resume/retry deadline
instead of 60 seconds.
- Add two deterministic 61-second resume regressions for declared and
explicit startup budgets. Assert exact RPC budgets, including the
30-second margin, and check that the same lease remains active without
replacement.
- Document the timeout behavior, provider-author contract, and
verification recipe.

## Verification

- Red: both new cases failed before the production change with
`ReusableSandboxResumeError`, caused by `Plugin RPC timed out`.
- Green: `pnpm exec vitest run --fsModuleCache
server/src/__tests__/environment-runtime.test.ts` passed all 163 cases.
The final review follow-up also passed both slow-resume cases with exact
RPC-budget assertions (330 seconds by declaration; 150 seconds by
explicit config).
- An earlier full run passed the 161 existing cases but timed out in the
two new tests because their fake clock also captured database
scheduling. The corrected test restores real timers before lease
persistence. The complete rerun then passed.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed locally.
- Started `pnpm test:run`, then stopped the duplicate serial run in
favor of complete parallel PR CI. The repository timing data totals
about 126 minutes for server suites alone. Full parallel CI passed on
the final head.
- CI attempt 1 had one unrelated failure:
`FileViewerSheet.copy.test.tsx` expected the asynchronous `Copied link`
confirmation before React rendered it. That test and component are
unchanged from the base branch. All six cases passed unchanged locally.
A single rerun of the failed shard passed; attempt 2 of the full
workflow succeeded. The timing-race diagnosis is an inference from the
test helper, not a claim that this PR repairs that UI test.
- Greptile scored the final head 5/5. Both review findings are fixed and
both threads are resolved.
- The consequential assumption is that provider startup may exceed one
minute. The test preserves the RPC timeout race with controlled timers
and uses real lease persistence. Read-only provider evidence also showed
the retained computer ready just after the failed run ended. The patch
has not been deployed to that instance.

## Risks

- A slow or unavailable provider may hold setup for its configured
startup budget instead of one minute. Retries still share one finite
deadline. Providers with no explicit or declared timeout keep the
one-minute default.

DottaandPaperclip 3858d2341d fix(recovery): default saved-monitor waits and keep task recovery quiet (#16686)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - A task must keep a durable path to its next action.
> - A provider can save a task monitor, then fail to yield because it
omits internal continuation fields.
> - An interrupted provider-pack check can then be reported as permanent
artifact incompatibility.
> - The task asks its user to certify recovered workspace files, even
though this is an operator responsibility.
> - This pull request derives the saved monitor continuation, bounds
verification retries, and removes that task form.
> - Normal recovery stays quiet. Unresolved holds retain inspection and
the existing safety checks.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A yielded completion without `continuation` is rejected even after the
provider saves an eligible monitor on the task. Repeated attempts cannot
finish. Remote verification also treats timeouts and missing exit status
as artifact incompatibility. The task recovery notice exposes raw
diagnostics and asks the task user to certify infrastructure files.

**Expected behavior**

Use current persisted task state to fill routine continuation fields.
Retry interrupted verification reads within a fixed bound. Keep normal
recovery in the working state. Show a compact notice only when work
cannot safely continue.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Save an eligible monitor on the active task.
2. Call `paperclip_finish` with `reportedWorkDisposition: "yielded"` and
omit `continuation`.
3. Return a timed-out remote provider-pack command with empty stderr
during recovery. Inspect the resulting task notice.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Source baseline: `aaeff418cf` (master integrated with its current task
visibility and saved-source reconstruction rules).

Related changes: #15824, #16104, #16451, #16493, #16690. This fix
complements saved-result recovery and verified pack reuse. It does not
replace their workspace ownership checks.

## What Changed

- Allow omitted or null continuation at the provider input boundary.
Read current authorized task context and fill a monitor continuation
only for the bound run and an eligible saved monitor. Keep accepted
results strict. Apply this to Codex, OpenCode, both direct and
production-sidecar ACPX paths, and external drivers. Reserve the
semantic call identity during the saved-context read and reject
cancellation or a changed run/turn.
- Bind the shared completion change and continuation helper in a new
Copilot v21 source declaration. Preserve v20 history and its decoder
support. Qualification stays pending.
- Expose the eligible continuation in task context. Completion admission
still checks persisted monitor state. No schedule is created or renewed
by the default.
- Retry read-only provider verification at most twice per command. Hold
exhausted reads with a distinct verification-unavailable cause.
Reattachment cannot renew the read budget through an unchanged
provider-attempt counter. Keep completed verification failures and wrong
versions incompatible.
- Remove the task file-certification form. Hide the notice only for a
matching durable recovery path without an unknown-action replay hold.
Keep missed retries, unsafe outcomes, and unresolved file holds visible.
- Add production-component stories for automatic recovery, blocked and
expired holds, reader access, persisted repair decisions, source
reconstruction, queued continuation, and mobile. Preserve master’s
guarded saved-source reconstruction choice after confirmed source
destruction. Update the execution contract and access maps.

## Verification

- Completion, helper, Codex, OpenCode, ACPX, and profile regressions
pass. After the sidecar review fix, 271 tests across the production
sidecar and three provider suites pass, plus 72 helper/profile tests.
The real sidecar MCP bridge tests cover saved-monitor acceptance,
no-monitor refusal, cancellation, duplicate call identity, and
raw-versus-forwarded semantic receipt hashes. The OpenCode tests also
cover eligible-monitor acceptance and refusal without one.
- The fresh full native executor suite passes all 743 tests. Four
profile, installation-integrity, and ACPX driver suites pass all 168
tests. The earlier CI fingerprint failure required a new immutable
source declaration; its follow-up Docker failure required the matching
context allowlist entry. Both fixes are verified locally. Targeted
server monitor, tool authority, and provider verification suites pass.
The probe tests include a real timed-out subprocess, an unrelated
responsive timer, transport errors, and completed integrity rejections.
- All 90 tests in the merged task notice, reconstruction choice,
recovery display, and lineage suites pass. They cover reader access,
live/missed/mismatched recovery, unknown outcomes, saved messages, retry
refusal, and removal of the file form. Both review findings have
failing-baseline/passing-treatment regressions: identical polling across
retry expiry, and a failed refresh after cached running activity.
- Browser walkthrough passed for automatic recovery, unresolved details,
a 390px mobile story, and the merged saved-source reconstruction and
queued states. The reconstruction control starts disabled and normal
automatic recovery shows only Working. The stories use production
components and fixture API data. They do not prove live cloud recovery.
- Token gates, map checks, and Storybook catalog generation pass. The
exact Docker context integrity command passes locally after adding the
new build declaration to its allowlist.
- Workspace typecheck and build pass on the final source, including the
versioned identity update. The final server and UI guards pass their
focused tests, typechecks, builds, and token gates. The final standalone
Storybook builds. The saved-monitor default retains master’s stricter
child-task visibility filter. Re-review caught an additional
production-sidecar validator before forwarding; the fix now defaults at
that boundary and has passing regression controls. After preserving
master’s new reconstruction capability, 68 targeted reconstruction,
tool-authority, and provider-verification server tests pass. The
current-master integration at `2a80050a0d` has a fresh 5/5 review with
zero unresolved threads. Its complete CI matrix, including Runner tests,
is the merge acceptance record.
- On the final master integration, local typecheck, build, and all 90
recovery UI tests pass. A concurrent runner run hit five 5-second
sidecar startup timeouts; an isolated sidecar run passed 86 tests and
timed out in the unrelated unsupported-bootstrap case. Those local
deadline failures remain recorded; the canonical CI Runner lanes use
their normal deadlines and pass. The unsharded local full-suite attempt
did not complete. It spanned source edits; the fresh native executor run
above passes. An unrelated workspace fixture timed out once and then
failed to reserve 32 contiguous ports on this host. Its unchanged-base
control and CI server suite pass. Full-suite acceptance uses the fresh
latest-head CI matrix; this PR does not claim a passing unsharded local
run.

## Risks

The default applies only to an eligible persisted monitor. An explicit
invalid continuation still fails validation. The added read occurs only
when a yielded report omits its continuation. Admission rechecks current
state after that read.

An interrupted verification command can add one extra 30-second probe.
Completed rejections stay closed. These probes do not change the pack,
launch provider work, or replay external tools. Two inconclusive reads
hold the original run. They do not schedule another reattachment with an
unchanged provider-attempt counter.

This PR’s pending Copilot v21 declaration binds the changed shared
contract, resolver, direct driver, and production sidecar sources. The
previous v20 declaration is immutable and remains decodable, but launch
requires the new exact identity. Qualification remains pending.

Task users lose the file-certification form. Board-authorized
source-only repair remains available through the resolution API with the
original evidence and stop-receipt requirements. This branch does not
deploy or recover historical held runs.

> This is a bug fix and UI polish within existing recovery behavior.
ROADMAP.md was checked.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, `gpt-6.1-sol`, xhigh reasoning, with tool use and code
execution. The host does not expose the context-window limit.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip c7ea5c0216 perf(server): skip settled committed finalizations in unscoped passes (#16485)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - On restart, `/api/health` reports `starting` until startup recovery
finishes, and deploys wait for it
> - Native recovery and the orphan reap each run an unscoped native
finalization reconciliation pass, and readiness waits for both
> - The pass selects every committed finalization with a result,
including runs that ended long ago, and spends dozens of sequential
queries on each one
> - On a busy instance this is about one minute per pass, so about two
minutes of every restart, and the periodic recovery repeats it on every
tick
> - This pull request skips settled committed finalizations in unscoped
passes, and keeps a small rotating upkeep page so their upkeep still
runs
> - The benefit is faster restarts and less steady database load, with
no change for unsettled work

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #16330 and #16329 (startup and reconciliation timing).

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
Startup recovery time and steady-state recovery load.

**Current behavior**
- The unscoped candidate scan in `reconcileNativeFinalizations` returns
every native finalization with a result and phase other than
`terminal_failure`. Nothing excludes rows that are already settled.
- Each committed row then takes the full per-row path: pending-effect,
assessment, evidence and decision reads, presentation repair (twice),
the workspace barrier read, a `finalizeNativeRun` re-read of the
committed coordinator, and workspace settlement (lease release check and
agent status update). That's about 40–60 sequential round trips per row.
- Startup runs the unscoped pass twice (native recovery, then the orphan
reap), and readiness waits for both. The periodic orphan reap runs it
again on every tick.
- On one instance, all 268 candidates were committed finalizations whose
runs had ended. Native recovery took 50–80 s and the orphan reap 47–80 s
on every restart, with database round trips of about 3.4 ms.

**Proposed behavior**
An unscoped pass skips a committed finalization when:
- its run is `succeeded`, `failed`, `cancelled` or `timed_out`, and
- the run finished more than an hour ago, and
- its decision has no `pending` or `failed` status-decision effect.

Each unscoped pass also includes up to 10 such settled rows in a
rotating order, so the presentation and evidence upkeep still reaches
every row over time. Scoped passes (explicit run IDs) are unchanged.

**Reason and benefit**
These settled rows have nothing left to finish. Recent rows, unfinished
runs and rows with undelivered effects stay in every pass, so
crash-window repairs and effect delivery behave as before. Startup and
periodic passes no longer scale with the full history of committed runs.

**Breaking changes**
None. A late repair on a settled row can be delayed until its turn in
the upkeep rotation instead of the next pass.

## What Changed

-
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-finalization-reconciler.ts`:
- `settledCommittedFinalization(now)`: the settled predicate above,
including a `NOT EXISTS` on undelivered `status_decision_effects` for
the same company, issue and decision.
- The unscoped candidate scan adds `NOT settled OR run in the upkeep
page`.
- `nextSettledCommittedUpkeep`: up to
`NATIVE_SETTLED_COMMITTED_UPKEEP_PER_PASS` (10) settled run IDs after an
in-process cursor, ordered by run ID, wrapping at the end.
- New constants `NATIVE_SETTLED_COMMITTED_GRACE_MS` (1 hour) and
`NATIVE_SETTLED_COMMITTED_UPKEEP_PER_PASS`, plus
`resetSettledCommittedUpkeepForTests`.
- New
`server/src/__tests__/native-finalization-settled-candidates.test.ts`.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: describes the settled rule and the
upkeep rotation.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
src/__tests__/native-finalization-settled-candidates.test.ts` (in
`server/`): 4 passed. The test mocks the timing hook to capture the
candidate count and stop the pass after the scan:
- 25 settled rows give 10, 10, 5, then 10 again over four passes
(rotation and wrap).
- A row finished 10 minutes ago, a running row, and a terminal row
without `finished_at` are all candidates.
  - A settled row whose decision has a `failed` effect is a candidate.
  - A scoped pass with an explicit run ID still selects a settled row.
- `pnpm exec vitest run` for `native-finalization-recovery`,
`legacy-finalization-regression`, `native-run-finalizer-telemetry`,
`native-workspace-finalizer`, `native-finalization-reconciler-timing`,
`external-chat-wait.integration` and `native-status-arbiter-corpus`: 316
passed.
- `heartbeat/recovery.test.ts`: the 8 tests that do not need a database
passed. The 20 database tests were skipped locally because embedded
PostgreSQL could not start (the host's shared-memory segments were
exhausted by other processes). CI runs them.
- `pnpm typecheck` in `server/`: passed.

## Risks

- A settled row that needs a late repair (for example a missing chat
presentation) waits for its turn in the upkeep rotation, up to
`ceil(settled rows / 10)` passes, instead of the next pass.
- The upkeep cursor is in memory. After a restart the rotation starts
from the beginning; the work is idempotent.
- A run left `running` with a committed finalization is never considered
settled, so it is still projected before the reaper's active-run loop.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), 1M context, through Claude Code
with tool use (shell, file edits, test runs, database and log analysis).
A separate Claude agent mapped the recovery call tree.

DottaandPaperclip db11d899cf fix(native): recover remote sessions while preserving warm runs (#16451)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native agents keep remote processes and conversation history across
warm turns.
> - A completed turn can leave handoff authority only in controller
memory.
> - Losing that controller can block a follow-up even while its sandbox
survives.
> - This pull request verifies durable ownership and reconnects the
exact prior process before handing it to the next run.
> - Healthy follow-ups stay warm. Recovery preserves saved work without
replaying a completed turn.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A remote warm turn can finish without suspended backup authority. A
replacement controller rejects that prior owner even when its exact
process and completed checkpoint remain. A single unavailable identity
probe can also stop an otherwise valid reattachment.

**Expected behavior**

Keep healthy follow-ups warm. Recover a completed session after proving
that its controller stopped and that the successor holds current
authority. Reuse compatible processes; otherwise save and resume the
conversation. Retry unavailable identity reads within one shared
deadline.

**Steps to reproduce**

Use `doc/testing-native-remote-continuity.md`. Its Linux cases execute
real turns through PostgreSQL, TLS ingress, and the Rust runner. They
kill a separate controller process, recover old checkpoint metadata, and
change process configuration. The provider is deterministic.

Related: #16432 and #16441 fix live warm-owner handoffs. #16341 adds
recovery diagnostics. #14695 covers provider process retention.

## What Changed

- Preserve warm process reuse between healthy remote turns.
- Verify a committed prior result, stopped controller, matching
checkpoint and sandbox, and current task/coordinator ownership before
recovering an orphaned warm session.
- Reconnect through the prior run route, then use the existing
authenticated run attachment to change authority.
- Persist a process-configuration digest. Close and save recovered
sessions when old or changed configuration cannot support reuse.
- Retry unavailable state, marker, and process reads within one
30-second deadline. Keep signals and definitive identity failures
single-attempt.
- Record closed recovery diagnostics, including unreadable or malformed
saved state.
- Retire the recovery-only ownership check after verified attachment, so
later warm turns use their current authority.
- Add real-process Linux regressions and refusal controls.
- Expose the existing source-only file-recovery form for retained native
holds, with the same board authority, evidence, and exact stop-receipt
requirements as legacy holds. Recording recovered files does not change
task status or replay a run.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed; the server check was repeated for the
third-turn fix.
- `pnpm build` passed after the final UI change. The UI typecheck, token
gates, and map checks also pass.
- Four Linux continuity cases passed: warm reuse, controller loss,
legacy checkpoint metadata, and changed configuration. Each creates one
conversation and starts exactly three turns, including a healthy
follow-up after recovery. The fixture uses expired prior leases; the
third turn keeps the runner and provider processes.
- Greptile caught the retained recovery gate; the third-turn regression
now covers it. An initial test omitted the heartbeat’s saved input and
left a test process after failure; the fixture was corrected and its
disposable container reset before the passing run.
- The current focused executor/restart group passes all 749 tests,
including the original failure classifications.
- Native file-recovery and UI tests pass (52 tests), including blocked
tasks and both native and legacy holds.
- After merging current master and retaining its equivalent CI
expression check, the CI policy tests pass (15 tests) and all four
three-turn Linux continuity cases pass again on
`dec418ae55ff21b4fb067132613658cce445f181`.
- `pnpm test:run` completed its general server group with 20,572 passes,
103 skips, and three failures: the skill-audit child process and two
HTTP test timeouts. The same three suites then passed in isolation (89
tests) without code changes. That local command stopped before later
groups; the complete final-head CI, including general, serialized,
Runner, build, and browser gates, is green.
- Greptile reviewed the combined head
`dec418ae55ff21b4fb067132613658cce445f181` at 5/5 with no actionable
findings; both earlier findings are resolved. All final-head CI gates
and the security scan passed. Staging deployment and retained-incident
disposition remain deployment acceptance work.

## Risks

- Recovery requires exact durable evidence. Live conflicting
controllers, replacement sandboxes, Stop/pause, and uncertain effects
must remain blocked.
- After controller loss, tool-contract or process-configuration changes
can restart the provider. Normal healthy follow-ups retain their
processes.
- The new idle-recovery path has Linux fake-provider evidence. Live
Codex/OpenCode and retained quarantined-state recovery still need
staging qualification.
- No database schema, telemetry, or runner protocol changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository inspection, code
execution, and browser tools. The session does not expose a more
specific model version or context-window size.

cafa25029c fix(native-runtime): recover unclaimed remote startup (#16349)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The native runtime preserves task execution across server restarts.
> - Remote workspace preparation can finish before the executor claims
its first provider attempt.
> - The recovery classifier required a provider checkpoint even when the
durable coordinator proved that execution had never started.
> - A deployment during this interval therefore left safe startup work
on a permanent recovery hold.
> - This pull request admits that narrow startup state to the existing
same-run bootstrap path. Existing execution and ownership checks remain
in force.
> - The original preparation yields when recovery owns the coordinator.
It cannot fail or clean up the recovered run.
> - Tasks can continue after this interruption without an operator retry
or a duplicate provider turn.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A server deployment interrupted a prepared remote workspace before the
native executor's first claim. The coordinator had attempt zero,
controller generation zero, and no owner, process, provider event, or
checkpoint. Restart classification returned
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence` and blocked the task.

**Expected behavior**

The server should recognize this durable never-claimed state and
continue the original run through normal execution admission. A prior
claim, uncertain ownership, or contradictory execution evidence must
retain the recovery hold.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Prepare a remote workspace for a native run.
2. Stop the controller before the executor commits its first claim.
3. Restart the controller and classify the running native task.
4. Observe that the old classifier blocks it because no provider
checkpoint exists.

Related: #16341 preserves remote recovery failure reasons. #16344
strengthens remote restart qualification. Neither changes admission for
an untouched remote startup.

## What Changed

- Require a server-owned fencing version written only with fresh native
identities. Older unmarked preparations stay held during rolling
upgrades; caller profile data cannot add that marker to an existing run.
- Leave the current server's active preparation with its existing
execution.
- Yield through the controller-detachment path when a different
execution owns the coordinator lease. Lease expiry does not grant
takeover authority.
- Preserve run-scoped gateway tokens during detachment so stale
preparation cannot revoke the recovered worker's tools.
- Admit a valid prepared remote workspace only when the locked
coordinator proves attempt and controller generation zero, no owner, and
no prior session or execution evidence.
- Check launch receipts and provider source events before granting
bootstrap recovery.
- Keep the original run and session. Preserve atomic recovery claims,
executor durable-state checks, and normal admission gates.
- Add real PostgreSQL regression tests for competing controllers and
seven contradictory evidence cases.
- Update recovery documentation, the run-log reason, and both capability
maps.

## Verification

- The competing-controller regressions failed before the ownership fix
and pass for both live and expired foreign leases.
- On the final revision, 77 runtime-selection, restart recovery, real
PostgreSQL, and heartbeat boundary tests pass with no skips, including
all local runner process fixtures. The full native executor file passes
all 698 tests.
- Another 91 live-run route tests pass locally. An earlier CI timeout in
that unrelated file passed on retry; the complete final-head CI passed
without that failure.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, `node scripts/check-maps.mjs`, and
`git diff --check`: passed locally. The map check verifies structure
only.
- Local `pnpm test:run` did not finish: an early attempt had
build-related collection failures, and later full-suite execution was
stopped after complete CI passed. Targeted suites passed after build
preparation. This is not a local full-suite pass.
- The complete [PR
workflow](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38669996667)
passed on `2baffb3652bfeb4705a30ca3706fbda6c3d72aa4`, including all test
shards, build/typecheck, runner verification, and browser E2E. All 55
applicable review/security/CI checks succeeded; two Storybook checks
were skipped.
- [Greptile
Apex](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/16349#issuecomment-6180848957):
5/5 on the same final head, with no unresolved findings.
- No live remote provider restart is claimed by the database regression.

## Risks

- A bare executor can no longer take a foreign coordinator lease after
expiry. A verified recovery claim must transfer authority first.
- Existing preparations without the server-owned fencing marker retain
their recovery hold during rolling upgrades.
- Incorrect admission could duplicate provider work. This path requires
a positive durable never-claimed receipt, rejects contradictory launch
evidence, and keeps the executor's existing durable-root verification.
- Previously claimed or incomplete remote recovery evidence remains
blocked. This change does not clear historical terminal holds.
- No schema, API, dependency, or UI changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, tool use, code execution,
and browser inspection. The exact serving snapshot ID and context window
size are not exposed in this session.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 6fae6f2cb8 fix(wake-queue): preserve pending work when a queued run is stopped (#16357)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The wake queue releases task locks and can promote saved follow-up
work when a run ends.
> - An operator can stop a queued run before dispatch selects its
runtime.
> - The legacy release path can promote the old follow-up after that
Stop.
> - For an obsolete routine cycle, this can conflict with the current
active cycle after cancellation has already committed.
> - This pull request preserves the deferred input without promoting it
at that release boundary.
> - The benefit is that a queued Stop stays stopped and does not return
an error from starting an obsolete follow-up.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: Refs #14300 and Refs #16339 describe other pre-dispatch
cancellation paths. Related PR #16238 changes former-owner wake
selection. This change addresses expected operator cancellation before
legacy runtime selection, without changing those contracts.

**What happened?**

Stopping an unstarted legacy run committed its cancellation, then tried
to promote a deferred wake. When another cycle of the same routine was
already active, the issue lock update failed against
`issues_open_routine_execution_uq`. The cancel request returned HTTP 500
even though the run was cancelled. Without a competing cycle, the Stop
launched the old follow-up.

**What did you expect to happen?**

Release the stopped run's own locks and preserve deferred input for a
later eligible instruction. Do not start the old queue as a side effect
of Stop.

**Steps to reproduce**

Create two cycles of the same routine. Keep the current cycle active.
Give the old cycle an unstarted legacy run with a verified bootstrap
record and a deferred wake. Cancel that run as a board operator, then
release its issue execution. The added database regression reproduces
the failed lock update before the fix.

**Paperclip version / commit**

Reproduced on parent commit `976cdc77ed564dc3e014621505890b647e554a7f`.

**Deployment mode**

A remote runtime exposed the symptom. The regression uses embedded
PostgreSQL and the real wake-queue adapter.

## What Changed

- Recognize an expected operator Stop only when the legacy run has no
runtime-selection time, start time, process-start time, or process
identity.
- Use the existing release boundary to preserve deferred input without
promoting it.
- Add database regressions for ordinary Stop, a competing routine cycle,
repeated release, provider cancellation, runtime selection, and
dispatched-run reconciliation.
- Document the behavior and update both recovery maps.

## Verification

- Before the fix, both queued Stop cases failed. The competing-cycle
case raised `issues_open_routine_execution_uq`. The three control cases
passed.
- `node node_modules/vitest/vitest.mjs run --project @paperclipai/server
server/src/modules/wake-queue`: 7 files and 214 tests passed, including
all five new database cases.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` and `git diff --check` passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and all 10 map-script tests passed
locally. The complete CI suite is green on
`8e204eef87f1a593df5c183abef764e4b9eb5fd1`. The remaining serial local
full-suite run was stopped once that unchanged-head CI verification
passed; a local full-suite pass is not claimed. Apex review passed at
5/5 on the same head with no review threads.

## Risks

- The change is limited to recorded operator cancellation before legacy
runtime selection. Selected runtimes, dispatched work, provider
cancellation, and native stop acknowledgement keep their existing paths.
- Deferred work is retained. A later eligible instruction must still use
normal admission and all current gates.
- No schema migration or new authority is required. This regression is
not proof of a live provider stop.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, tool use, and code
execution. The exact serving snapshot ID and context window size are not
exposed in this session.

976cdc77ed fix(recovery): expose settled holds and their preserved decisions (#16169)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Task recovery preserves work when execution or tool outcomes are
uncertain.
> - Automatic recovery can settle its record while keeping replay
blocked.
> - The recovery-actions API omitted those records unless they held
workspace files.
> - Operators and agent tools could therefore see an empty recovery
history for a task that still had an execution hold.
> - This pull request lists those holds and shows their matching
decision in the existing stopped-run notice.
> - Existing stop verification, continuation, and file repair gates
remain in force.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A cancelled or failed task can retain a settled recovery record with
`automaticRecovery.replay: blocked`. The task remains held, but the
recovery-actions API returns no action. The board notice also lacks that
record's decision.

**Expected behavior**

List settled execution holds that still block replay. Let an authorized
board user inspect the current action and run in Recovery details.
Preserve the existing guarded continuation and required-file repair
paths.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Stop a run whose outcome requires inspection.
2. Let automatic recovery settle its record with replay blocked.
3. Read the task's recovery actions and open its stopped-run notice.
4. Before this change, the action list is empty unless workspace
recovery is required.

**Paperclip version or commit**

This PR includes current master through `66424362a85`.

**Deployment mode**

Authenticated and local deployments with persisted execution recovery
holds.

The original API correction and route regression are by Tao Xie
(@TaoXieSZ). This update preserves those commits and adds the board
inspection path, current documentation, and regression coverage.

Related: #14840 describes controller lease loss. This change exposes
recovery records; it does not change controller lease renewal.

## What Changed

- Include settled execution reconciliation holds with replay blocked in
the company-scoped recovery-actions response.
- Read the matching action from the existing stopped-run notice. Show
its decision under Recovery details, including when active recovery is
empty.
- Reject mismatched historical records in the notice. Bind history to
the current action/run and refresh visible decisions every five seconds.
Keep history read errors visible beside the current guidance.
- Preserve existing run inspection, new-message continuation, and
required-file repair controls. No new reconciliation form is added.
- Update the execution documentation and both recovery capability maps.

## Verification

- Recovery route suite with real embedded PostgreSQL: 80 passed, none
skipped.
- Notice and retry-client suites: 36 passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed.
- `pnpm build`: passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates`: passed.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs`: passed. This checks structure only.
- `git diff --check`: passed.
- Full `pnpm test:run` was started. It is not yet a full local pass.
Initial database tests were affected by missing packaged macOS library
aliases; the aliases were restored in this worktree's dependencies, and
the complete recovery route suite then passed.
- All CI checks passed on `09e4461e4d3a0960a4dc8bc270a2a10c628bf524`,
including the full test matrix, typecheck, build and browser checks.
Optional Storybook jobs were skipped.
- Apex: 5/5 on the same head. Both review threads are resolved; the
reviewer confirmed the existing guarded continuation design.

## Risks

- The API response now includes settled records that still block replay.
Consumers must distinguish a settled record from permission to continue.
- Recovery history is supplemental. A failed history read keeps the
current blocker and guidance visible.
- The UI binds the decision to both the current action and run. It does
not certify tool outcomes or grant execution authority.
- No schema, dependency, telemetry, or runtime admission changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, tool use, and code
execution, assisted with the board inspection and verification
follow-up. The exact serving snapshot ID and context window size are not
exposed in this session. The original API work is retained from Tao
Xie's contribution.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip cda77edc60 perf(server): stop readiness waiting on startup housekeeping (#16329)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - On restart, `/api/health` reports `starting` until startup recovery
finishes, and deploy tooling waits for `ok`
> - After heartbeat recovery, readiness also waits for housekeeping that
every scheduler tick repeats and that serving requests does not need
> - #16330 added OpenTelemetry spans for the main startup phases; native
recovery and orphan reaping are the slow ones, and both run the native
finalization reconciliation pass, which has no inner breakdown
> - This pull request stops readiness waiting on that housekeeping, and
records the phases of slow reconciliation passes as spans
> - The benefit is faster readiness on every restart, and traces that
show where a slow reconciliation pass spends its time

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Builds on #16330, which records `controller.startup.<phase>` spans.
Related to #16328.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
Server readiness time after a restart, and diagnosis of slow native
recovery.

**Current behavior**
- After heartbeat recovery, readiness waits for the custom-image setup
cleanup, tool connection health (remote MCP checks), decision expiry,
the adapter and setup-token login reapers, environment lease cleanup
(provider calls) and the retention sweep. Each also runs on every
scheduler tick. On one instance they added 11–28 s to every measured
restart. A throw in any of them fails startup.
- On the same instance, native recovery took from 33 s to 11.5 min and
orphan reaping from 30 s to 4 min across restarts in one hour. Both run
the native finalization reconciliation pass. The #16330 spans time each
step as a whole, but not the phases inside that pass.

**Proposed behavior**
- The housekeeping steps run after readiness. The scheduler interval
still starts after them.
- With an OTLP endpoint, a reconciliation pass of at least one second
records a span with one child span per phase.

**Reason and benefit**
Readiness depends only on what serving requests and run recovery need.
Slow reconciliation passes become attributable to a phase in the
existing traces, without adding trace volume for the periodic pass.

**Breaking changes**
None. A failed housekeeping step no longer fails startup; it is logged
and the next step runs.

## What Changed

- `server/src/index.ts`: moves the housekeeping steps into
`runStartupHousekeeping`, which runs after readiness under
`trackHeartbeatSchedulerWork` (idle sleep and shutdown wait for it).
Each step catches and logs its own failure (`startup housekeeping step
failed`). The heartbeat scheduler interval starts when housekeeping
finishes, unless the scheduler was stopped, so the reapers still finish
before the first timer tick.
- New
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-reconciliation-timing.ts`:
records the phase boundaries of one pass. When the pass took at least
one second and an OTLP endpoint is configured, it emits a
`controller.native_reconciliation` root span
(`paperclip.native-reconciliation`) with child spans
`legacy_workspace_exports`, `obsolete_policy_reviews`,
`automatic_completion_reviews`, `candidate_scan` and `candidates`, using
the recorded start and end times. It records `scoped` and the candidate
count only. A failed pass marks the pass span and the running phase.
Tracing failures are swallowed.
- `native-finalization-reconciler.ts`: the exported function wraps the
pass in that timing and finishes it in `finally`, so failed passes are
recorded; the original error is rethrown.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: what readiness waits for, and the
housekeeping order. `doc/observability.md`: the reconciliation spans.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/native-reconciliation-timing.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/native-finalization-reconciler-timing.test.ts
src/startup-recovery-timing.test.ts` (in `server/`): 52 passed. New
tests:
- Readiness is `ready` while a housekeeping step hangs, and the
heartbeat interval starts only after the step settles.
- A failed housekeeping step is logged, and the scheduler still starts
after the remaining steps.
- Span timing: nothing for a fast pass or without an endpoint; a slow
pass emits the pass span and one child per phase with the recorded
times; a failed pass marks the running phase and the pass; a failing
tracer does not throw.
- The reconciler records its phases and a failed outcome when a pass
throws, and rethrows.
- Three existing startup tests settle housekeeping before they read the
scheduler interval or the setup cleanup.
- `pnpm exec vitest run src/services/native-runtime`: 4,399 passed.
- `pnpm typecheck` in `server/`: passed.

## Risks

- Housekeeping now runs concurrently with the first requests and with
`waitForExternalAdapters`. None of these steps is needed to serve
requests, and each one also runs on every scheduler tick.
- Readiness is reported earlier; the heartbeat timer starts at the same
point relative to housekeeping as before.
- The new spans exist only with an OTLP endpoint and only for passes of
at least one second.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), 1M context, through Claude Code
with tool use (shell, file edits, test runs).

DottaandPaperclip 1e731520bb fix(mcp): deduplicate discovered tool descriptors (#16281)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents receive governed app tools through the MCP gateway.
> - GitHub review tasks can contain a PR discussion and inline finding
threads.
> - Discovery repeated each tool for every conversation linked to the
task.
> - Native tool registration treated these repeated descriptors as a
fatal collision.
> - This pull request lists GitHub tools once and deduplicates identical
descriptors across providers.
> - Agents can continue work while conflicting definitions and normal
tool permissions remain enforced.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A follow-up run on a GitHub review task failed with
`assigned_mcp_tool_name_collision` before the provider started. The task
had a main conversation and an inline finding thread. Discovery returned
the same seven tools twice. Repeated descriptors from other providers
could cause the same failure.

**Expected behavior**

Discovery exposes each identical tool once. Separate connection names
remain separate tools. Conflicting definitions remain an error. Every
call still passes the gateway's policy, approval, revocation, and audit
checks.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run a GitHub review and publish an inline finding.
2. Send a follow-up request on the same PR task.
3. Inspect the task-bound bot catalog and the next native startup.
4. Separately, return two identical descriptors from an assigned app or
plugin catalog.

Related: #13717 added the GitHub review workflow.

## What Changed

- Use a distinct GitHub discovery query across conversations that share
an endpoint and task. Keep both thread mappings.
- Deduplicate identical gateway descriptors by their full gateway name
across providers. Use this rule for MCP listings, plugin listings,
assigned-tool startup, and fresh assigned-tool discovery.
- Reject conflicting descriptors with `tool_name_collision`. Keep the
projected-name collision guard.
- Cover GitHub inline-thread discovery, repeated plugin/app tools,
direct and on-demand catalogs, revocation, conflicting bindings, and
separate connection names.
- Update the execution contract, GitHub documentation, and agent access
map.

## Verification

- Regression baseline: six new assertions failed on the original
implementation. GitHub returned fourteen entries, plugin discovery
repeated a tool, and native startup failed on repeated app tools.
- Focused verification passed: 272 GitHub cases, all 29 assigned-tool
cases, and all 88 gateway acceptance cases.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed.
- `pnpm build` passed.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` passed.
- Current-head CI passed: 55 checks passed, two inapplicable checks
skipped. Greptile scored the current head 5/5 with no unresolved
threads.
- Full local `pnpm test:run` encountered a 15-second timeout in the
existing bearer-auth throttling test, before tool discovery. That test
passed in the separate 88-case gateway run and on one isolated rerun.
The duplicate broad local run was then stopped; the complete
current-head CI matrix passed.

## Risks

- Deduplication keeps the first identical descriptor and preserves
listing order. Same-name descriptors with different definitions fail
with HTTP 409 rather than selecting an ambiguous binding.
- The GitHub query changes result cardinality. It retains the existing
task/company/agent filters and leaves conversation rows intact.
- No schema migration or credential change. Live staging recovery
requires deployment and a new authorized run.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with code inspection, editing, browser
investigation, and test execution. The exact serving model ID and
context window are not exposed in this session.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 6c198d616e fix(issues): preserve human handoffs from the active agent run (#16082)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Tasks have one owner, and the server records assignment changes.
> - An agent can finish its work by handing the task to a human for
review.
> - The assignment route stops the active run before it saves that
handoff.
> - When the caller is that run, a slow workspace restore can exceed the
stop timeout and prevent the assignment from saving.
> - Recovery can then mark the task Blocked while its comment says the
handoff succeeded.
> - This pull request lets the authenticated legacy run save a human
handoff and finish its turn normally.
> - Other actors and transfers to executable agents keep the verified
stop requirement.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13730. Related: #13782, #14700, and #15094.

**What happened?**

An agent posted its review handoff, then sent `PATCH /api/issues/{id}`
to assign the task to its human creator with status `in_review`. The
route cancelled that same run before saving the assignment. Workspace
restore took 66 seconds. The stop limit is 60 seconds. The assignment
never committed. Recovery marked the task Blocked, and it stayed
assigned to the agent.

**Expected behavior**

The authenticated active legacy run can hand its own task to a human and
finish normally. The human assignment and requested review status must
save without waiting for workspace restore. Native runs, board
reassignment, agent API keys, and transfers to another agent still
require a verified stop.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run a legacy agent on its assigned task with a signed run token.
2. Send a task PATCH from that run with a human `assigneeUserId`, a null
`assigneeAgentId`, and status `in_review`.
3. Make stopping the sandbox take more than 60 seconds. Before this fix,
the handoff fails before the task update. With this fix, the update
saves and the run finishes normally.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced in hosted execution. The patch is based on master at
`56a0bf0d492`.

**Deployment mode**

Hosted authenticated server with a legacy agent in a remote sandbox. The
same route serves local deployments.

PR #13782 proposes a broader exemption for all self-handoffs. This
focused change limits the exemption to human recipients and legacy runs.
It checks the exact active run, agent, company, and task, and it retains
the stop requirement before an executable successor can take ownership.
PRs #14700 and #15094 address later wake and recovery behavior after a
reassignment stop.

## What Changed

- Skip the reassignment cancellation only for an authenticated legacy
run handing its own task to a human.
- Reject later mutations from the outgoing run against its human-owned
task, both in route authorization and under the update transaction
locks.
- Keep assignment permission checks, goal control, and queued human
response protection.
- Add route regressions for slow stops, active-run lookup, actor and
runtime boundaries, recipient types, permission denials, and follow-up
edits, completion, and reassignment.
- Update the real HTTP low-trust handoff test to prove the run stays
alive, its late edit fails, and the human wake receipt remains
invalidated.
- Add Postgres tests for saved assignment, former-owner rejection, and
review state after the outgoing run succeeds or fails.
- Document the handoff rule and update the task feature and agent access
maps.

## Verification

- 328 relevant tests passed across the route, issue service, low-trust
HTTP, and legacy recovery suites. The route suite passed all 160 tests,
and all 13 low-trust HTTP tests passed after updating the obsolete
cancellation expectation.
- Removing the production guard makes both slow-shutdown handoff
regressions fail with HTTP 500.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed.
- `pnpm build` passed.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` passed.
- `git diff --check` passed.
- All 54 current-head checks passed; 2 optional Storybook checks were
skipped. The CI lanes cover the full Vitest suite, typecheck/build,
Runner checks, and product E2E checks.
- Apex reviewed `c68fbfb356c3d80eb7136babb49940709a3c3459` at 5/5 with
no findings; both earlier review threads are resolved.
- The complete test lanes passed in CI. The duplicate local full `pnpm
test:run` was stopped after CI completed; it did not finish locally. All
328 focused local tests and full local typecheck/build passed.

## Risks

- The outgoing legacy turn stays alive after the human takes ownership.
Route and transactional ownership checks reject its later mutations of
the human-owned task. Read and comment access follows normal policy.
Goal control still runs before the handoff.
- This exemption does not apply to native runs or another agent as
recipient. Those paths still stop the old execution before assignment.
- This fix prevents future failed handoffs. It does not infer or replay
old assignment requests.
- There is no schema change or API shape change.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 0bbd586a2f fix(server): wait for workspace restore before shutdown lease release (#15857)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Server shutdown must stop agent execution and preserve its files.
> - Legacy adapters export workspace and instruction changes during
settlement.
> - Shutdown released their sandbox leases before this export finished.
> - The provider closed command access, so the later Git export failed.
> - This change stops an owned adapter through its cancellation control
and waits for settlement before release.
> - A bounded timeout retains the exact sandbox source behind the
existing repair gate.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A server restart interrupted a remote legacy run. Shutdown began
releasing its sandbox lease while the adapter was still stopping its
provider and restoring files. The sandbox provider closed command
admission. The adapter's later Git export failed with
`workspaceRestoreFailure: restore_failed`, leaving the task held for
workspace repair.

**Expected behavior**

Shutdown keeps the exact lease available through provider stop,
instruction collection, and workspace restore. Cleanup follows adapter
settlement. A restore that exceeds the bounded deadline keeps its exact
source for repair before later execution.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start an owned legacy adapter with a sandbox workspace.
2. Send SIGTERM to the server while the adapter is active.
3. Delay adapter settlement until after the shutdown terminal write.
4. On the base branch, shutdown releases the lease without cancelling or
joining the adapter. Its later export can encounter closed provider
admission.

Related: #14311 defines the provider-stop boundary for file collection.
#15042 closes run admission during shutdown. This fix orders sandbox
release after the adapter's existing file settlement.

## What Changed

- Cancel each owned legacy adapter and join all affected runs within one
shared 30-second window.
- Commit a durable fence on the exact sandbox before exposing
interruption. Other cleanup workers defer while export is pending.
- Permit the exact aborted owner's stop-only request so shutdown does
not block provider termination.
- Reload current execution evidence after settlement. Release leases
even when the adapter's ordinary terminal write wins the shutdown race.
- Claim the current fence before recording timeout retention. An old
snapshot cannot create a repair hold after successful settlement.
- Recover fenced sources after controller loss, including released stop
receipts. Block reuse or destruction of the physical allocation while
file recovery is required, including direct resume and destroy calls
with historical lease snapshots. Convert failed ordinary cleanup into
stop-only recovery after its existing attempt settles.
- Allow 90 seconds for shutdown in shipped Compose services. Preserve
native runner restart ownership and unregistered process behavior.
- Add database regressions for restore order, timeout, concurrent
cancellation, another cleanup worker, controller loss, stale snapshots,
stop-only settlement, and completion races. Document the shutdown order.

## Verification

- The original ordering regression failed on the base implementation.
- Latest recovery and environment runtime suites: 190 tests passed. The
other four focused suites passed 136 tests, covering run control,
shutdown, file repair, server startup, and environment runtime.
- Server typecheck passed. Full `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`
passed on the latest head.
- `pnpm test:run` was run locally. Its general-server group passed
18,559 tests and failed seven, with one unhandled error. The long run
started before the review fixes, then loaded newer regression cases
against older transformed modules. The current focused suites pass in a
fresh process. The damaged-prior-epoch native-session-resume failure
also reproduces on unchanged base commit de9ab8e7e0. An isolated rerun
of the Google Workspace connection case passed. Later full-run groups
did not run because general-server stopped on failure.
- The prior CI startup import failure is fixed: expiry loads the
terminal recorder only when it needs to pin recovery. Its focused
startup suite passes.
- Apex reviewed commit c564320b16 at 5/5. All review threads are
resolved. All latest-head CI gates passed. The branch has no merge
conflicts.

## Risks

Owned legacy adapters share a 30-second shutdown window. The wait is
bounded. Timeout cleanup uses the existing stop-and-retain and workspace
repair paths. A timeout can require manual file verification even if a
late restore succeeds. No database migration or API change is needed.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 5847f047c7 fix(connections): retire requests for already available tools (#15856)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Connection cards let users provide the access an agent needs.
> - Users can complete setup in Apps while an earlier card stays
pending.
> - A stale card can then cancel recovery despite valid existing access.
> - This change verifies existing access and expires the obsolete
request.
> - It records a system outcome and sends one durable continuation.
> - Approval, identity, permission, and workspace recovery gates remain
in place.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

An ordinary tool connection request stayed pending after the addressed
user connected the service in Apps. A later conversation retry was
cancelled with `issue_waiting_for_response`.

**Expected behavior**

A request expires when the same user and requesting agent already have
usable access. The agent gets a durable tool refresh. The system records
no new human approval.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Have an agent request a tool connection on an active task.
2. Connect the service through Apps with the addressed user's existing
grant, agent install, and allowed tools.
3. Let a conversation run stop and retry. The pending card still blocks
the retry on the base branch.

Related: #12345 introduced the connection request flow. This fix uses
its existing access checks and delivery queue.

## What Changed

- Verify company, task ownership, user identity, membership, health,
grants, installs, and task tool policy before expiring an ordinary
request.
- Preserve AI account, channel, additional permission, and upstream
provider requests on their existing paths.
- Save the system outcome, audit event, and continuation in one
transaction. Notify an idle delivery worker when a request commits.
- Recheck access and other questions or approvals before delivery,
retry, final dispatch, and native projection. Refresh system
observations for an authorized replacement account.
- Rearm delivery when access changes before provider work starts. Verify
the host's admission receipt against execution evidence before allowing
retry without a repair incident.
- Require the current delivery claim when marking an attempt complete.
An old completion cannot overwrite a rearmed continuation.
- Add embedded-Postgres regressions for permissions, policy,
concurrency, restart, replacement accounts, both dispatch gates, and the
delivery race. Keep genuine workspace repair holds blocking.

## Verification

- Latest-head connection, wake-context, dispatch, and legacy recovery
suites: 124 tests passed. The connection suite includes 44 real-Postgres
cases.
- Server typecheck passed. Full `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`
passed on the latest head.
- `pnpm test:run` was run locally. Its general-server group passed
18,583 tests and failed 20. That long run started before the review
fixes, then loaded new test cases against modules transformed before
those fixes. The affected latest-head suites pass in a fresh process.
- One full-run failure also reproduces on unchanged base commit
de9ab8e7e0: native-session-resume's damaged-prior-epoch replacement
case. It is outside this change. Full-run groups after general-server
did not run because that command stopped on failure.
- Apex reviewed commit 96b96297f4 at 5/5. All review threads are
resolved. All latest-head CI gates passed. The branch has no merge
conflicts.

## Risks

A false readiness result could retire a request too early. The fix
reuses the runtime access selection rules, makes no new grants, and
rechecks access at delivery. Ordinary expired requests do not authorize
continuation. A failed workspace restore still requires repair through
the existing gate. No schema migration is needed.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 3389bea708 fix(recovery): surface exhausted review-path repair (#15764)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - An issue in review needs a saved path to its next action.
> - A consumed review path starts one automatic repair run.
> - The repair run can finish with only a promise to check later.
> - The old code skips another wake but records no recovery action.
> - This change records a board decision when that repair also leaves no
saved path.
> - The issue lock protects a new monitor, a changed owner, or newer
work from stale finalization.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

An agent waiting for an external build said it would check again soon.
Its one-shot monitor had already fired. The automatic review-path repair
also finished without saving another monitor. The task stayed in review
with no future wake or recovery card.

**Expected behavior**

The repair must save a monitor or another review path. If it cannot do
so, Paperclip must show an explicit recovery action and stop automatic
retries.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Leave an agent-owned issue in review after consuming its last monitor
or interaction.
2. Let the source run finish without saving another review path.
3. Let the single automatic repair run also finish without saving a
path.
4. Before this change, the task stays in review without a scheduled
follow-up. After this change, it is blocked with a board-owned recovery
action and an inline notice that links the repair run.

Related work: Refs #14757 (preserve active review during stale
recovery), Refs #11925 (review-path liveness). This PR handles exhausted
repair wakes; it does not change path aging.

## What Changed

- Return an explicit exhausted result after the single review-path
repair attempt.
- Record the recovery action, blocked state, notice, and activity in one
transaction. Preserve the original assignee. Keep implicit service reads
on the transaction connection.
- Recheck the company, owner, saved review paths, and latest issue run
before escalation. Publish activity after commit.
- Tell the repair agent to save a one-shot monitor and report its check
time when an external check remains pending.
- Retry missed escalation from the saved terminal repair run during the
stranded-issue sweep. Cover restart recovery and rollback with a
one-connection pool.
- Preserve valid due and claimed monitors for dispatch while the owner
permits on-demand wakes. Surface overdue monitors after those wakes are
disabled. Keep the future-only liveness classifier unchanged.
- Cover monitor repair, stale finalization, company boundaries,
duplicate finalization, and failed repair. Document the behavior.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/services/recovery/review-path-recovery.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-issue-liveness-escalation.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-liveness.test.ts` — 62 tests passed,
including PostgreSQL integration tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsc --noEmit` — passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` — passed.
- `pnpm test:run` — 18,144 passed, with three unrelated local fixture
failures. Two Git fixtures pass when run with their expected initial
branch (`master`); this machine defaults to `main`. The native same-task
replacement fixture also fails on an unchanged checkout of master. No
unrelated production behavior was changed to accommodate those fixtures.
- Apex review — 5/5 on commit `3aca7059848`, with no unresolved review
comments.
- Latest-head CI — all required checks passed, including test shards,
typecheck, build, browser checks, and canary dry run. No merge
conflicts.
- Repeat the steps above. Confirm that the issue has one recovery
notice, one board-owned action, and no second automatic repair wake.
Save a monitor during repair and confirm that the issue stays in review.

## Risks

- A review repair that exhausts its one attempt now moves the task to
blocked and asks the board to act. This is an intentional behavior
change.
- The check uses the current review-path classifier. A path that the
classifier treats as healthy still suppresses escalation.
- No schema, API, or UI contract changes are required. Existing recovery
controls render the action and notice.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with tool use and code execution. The
runtime does not expose a more specific model ID or context window.

DottaandPaperclip 00d944f96c fix(chat-channels): resume follow-ups after Slack Stop (#15737)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Chat channels let verified users stop an agent and send another
message from Slack.
> - Native execution needs the stopping user's identity to recognize a
deliberate Stop.
> - Slack omitted that identity, so a stopped run could create a
recovery hold.
> - A pending AI login request for another user could then block the new
message.
> - This pull request records the verified stop actor and scopes AI
login waits to the current user.
> - Users can start a fresh turn after a verified Stop while access and
approval gates remain in force.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A user stops a native run from its bound Slack thread. Slack confirms
the Stop. The user sends a follow-up and receives a queued
acknowledgement, but execution does not start. The run can acquire a
recovery hold. A pending AI login request addressed to another user then
blocks explicit continuation.

**Expected behavior**

An acknowledged operator Stop ends the current response. A new
authorized user message starts through normal admission after the
previous execution has stopped. An AI login request for another user
stays pending but does not gate this user's turn. Tool access,
approvals, unknown identities, and unconfirmed cleanup still block
execution.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a native agent run in a Slack thread with a pending AI login
request addressed to a different user.
2. Stop the run with the signed Slack Stop action.
3. Send a new message from a verified linked user.
4. Observe the recovery hold and the pending-decision message on the
saved follow-up.

Refs: #15421 for the related verified linked-user authority path. That
change separates guest and trusted tasks; this change handles
cancellation and login wait scope.

## What Changed

- Pass the verified Slack user's identity to canonical run cancellation.
- Scope AI login waits by the current run's responsible user, with a
company-scoped lookup.
- Use the same wait predicate for explicit continuation, native
execution, and recovery decisions.
- Admit already-saved native follow-ups posted after Stop through the
existing continuation checks. Keep pre-stop and delivered messages held.
- Keep pending cards and their authorization state intact.
- Add regression tests for signed Slack Stop, fresh-turn admission, and
same-user, unknown-user, tool-access, and company-boundary gates.
- Give the two affected database setup hooks the standard 90-second
budget.
- Document Slack Stop and user-scoped AI login waits.

## Verification

- Red: signed Slack Stop omitted the cancelling user; direct
continuation and already-saved post-Stop continuation both returned
`null`.
- Green: 57 continuation/audience checks passed, including legacy
operator Stops, pre-stop input, delivered input, same-user login,
unknown identity, company boundaries, cleanup, ownership, pauses, and
approvals.
- The combined signed Slack Stop and original gate check passed: 39
tests.
- Existing native question/completion suite: 33 tests passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed.
- `pnpm build` passed.
- Rebased regression check: 18 tests passed on current master. The
reviewed database-support setup change passed all 7 audience checks.
- Full latest-head CI passed, including all server, chat, package,
serialized-server, Runner, browser, build, and canary gates.
- The duplicate local `pnpm test:run` was stopped after the full CI
matrix passed. It was slow on the contended host; no failure had been
reported. The focused reproduction command is:

```sh
pnpm exec vitest run server/src/services/issue-question-context.test.ts server/src/services/explicit-native-continuation.test.ts server/src/__tests__/chat-channels.integration.test.ts --fsModuleCache --testTimeout 60000 -t 'AI connection wait audience|scopes connection waits|resumes an already-saved follow-up|durably retries a signed Slack session stop'
```
- Manual evidence: inspected the bound thread's cancelled run, queued
messages, recovery hold, and login card. The staging deployment has not
been changed.

## Risks

- AI login wait behavior changes only when both the addressee and
current responsible user are known and differ. Missing identity retains
the gate.
- Starting a new turn does not grant access or answer the old card.
Credential selection still uses the new run's authority.
- Process, remote cleanup, recovery, task ownership, pause, budget, and
approval checks remain in place.
- No schema migration or public API change.

DottaandPaperclip bf9dbd18a8 fix(runner): recover incompatible Codex models before launch (#15519)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The Runner prepares and saves each task's provider configuration
before launch.
> - A sandbox image can have a supported Codex CLI that is too old for
the selected model.
> - The current version check stops that task even when the image can
run a similar model.
> - This pull request selects a compatible model before it saves a fresh
execution.
> - The task continues with a visible warning, and recovery uses the
saved effective model.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- Refs #15053. This fixes the same CLI and model mismatch for fresh
remote Runner tasks. It does not change subscription onboarding.
- Refs #14721. This adds a bounded startup choice for Codex CLI
compatibility. It does not add user-defined fallback chains or quota
failover.
- Related PR: #15399 added the model-specific CLI checks that this
change preserves at launch.

## What Changed

- Check the preinstalled remote Codex CLI before saving a fresh
execution that uses a model with a verified CLI minimum.
- Select the closest compatible older model in the same class, then the
stable Runner default. Consider each candidate once.
- Save the effective model before checkpoint selection. Keep the
requested agent and task settings unchanged.
- Add a task warning and a local `runner.model_fallback` run-log event
with both models and the CLI version.
- Share executable discovery with the launch verifier. Preserve explicit
artifact and install settings, saved executions, and existing artifact
checks.
- Add regression tests and document the selection and warning behavior.

## Verification

- Red: the three new provider-configuration regression cases failed
before the fix. They kept the incompatible requested model.
- Red: both rejected-probe cases failed before the review fix. They now
defer to launch verification.
- Green: targeted provider configuration, remote preflight, task
warning, and launch-verifier tests pass (680 tests).
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passes.
- [Full
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37713759744)
passes on `eb273fc32661526d90a864b42c73a7da61dd62da`: 47 successful
jobs, including all general and serialized Vitest groups, browser
shards, Runner verification, typecheck, build, and the canary dry run.
- Local extended verification: three serialized shards pass (115
suites). HTTP route tests hit intermittent 15-second timeouts. The
authorization suite passes on rerun (130 tests). The document suite
passes on both master and the PR head in the same isolated setup (6
tests). The local general run was stopped after the equivalent full CI
matrix passed.
- `pnpm build` passes.
- Server typecheck and build pass again after the probe-error review
fix.
- `git diff --check` and `pnpm check:module-boundaries` pass.
- Example: request `gpt-6.1-sol` on Codex 0.158.0 to use `gpt-6-sol`; on
0.156.0, use `gpt-5.6-sol`. The warning names the requested model,
effective model, and CLI version.
- This PR has not been deployed to staging.

## Risks

- A fallback can have different capabilities. The task warning makes the
substitution visible. Later runs can use the requested model after the
image CLI is updated.
- Preparation adds two remote commands for models with a verified CLI
minimum. Failed or invalid version probes retain the existing launch
checks.
- This only handles known CLI and model mismatches before a fresh
provider launch. Authentication, capacity, and artifact failures keep
their existing behavior.
- No database migration is required.

size, or reasoning setting.

DottaandPaperclip fd8c6b920a fix(native): resume connection tasks after approval decisions (#15471)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native tasks can pause while a human decides whether to allow a
connection action.
> - The next turn needs both the saved decision and complete accounting
for the previous turn.
> - Cancellation could discard final usage, and complete direct Claude
API receipts could remain unpriced.
> - A stale blocked or review report could also request approval again
after the original card was declined.
> - This pull request retains shutdown accounting and rejects approval
waits bound to an already resolved action.
> - The benefit is reliable continuation with the existing budget and
approval controls.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15420. Related: #15312 addresses requester ownership during
dispatch. This change addresses receipt capture and final-response
validation.

## What Changed

- Retain usage events after native cancellation. Continue to reject late
provider messages and work.
- Drain same-turn accounting and terminal events for at most fifteen
seconds after a durable governed wait. Keep incomplete accounting
blocked.
- Estimate complete, unpriced, direct Anthropic API receipts for the
exact `claude-sonnet-5` model. Record the rate version and assumptions.
Use the one-hour cache-write rate when the receipt lacks cache TTL.
- Bind stale approval reports to exact interaction, action-request, or
invocation IDs in the same company, task, agent, and run. Cover blocked,
review, and response-wake reports. Keep independent reviews valid.
- Fence checkpoint and result writes after a controller detaches for
restart, including operations waiting for a database lock. Reject stale
successful returns before certifying accounting.
- Allow bounded subscription teardown only after retaining an actual
provider terminal.
- Journal the exact governed-wait trigger and disposition before
provider interruption. Recover that wait independently of a later saved
answer, replay retained accounting, and reject mismatched or unproven
terminal evidence.
- Give settling governed turns a bounded window before shutdown detaches
their controller.
- Keep fuzzy external app matches alongside installed capability matches
instead of forcing an unrelated provider question for a generic query.
- Return up to twenty exact active catalog tool names after an invalid
request, after eligibility checks; still reject the request without
granting access or creating an approval.
- Require retained provider terminal proof before settling a governed
wait, including when complete usage arrives before stream
closure/error/timeout. Retain harmless numbered cancellation events so
restart replay stays contiguous.
- Isolate accounting-test OpenCode config from the host plugin
directory.
- Add regression coverage and document the accounting, restart and
connection-search behavior.

## Verification

Current PR source: `0cf08efd75f8fb23f7989beda6dbda92587088bf`. The live
matrix below measured frozen `09a776bcb1f77422156f8be11e13f8c29f43e7f7`;
later review fixes are verified separately and do not relabel those
runs.

- Repository typecheck and build pass.
- Current runner runtime and cancellation suites: 191 tests pass. Six
new regressions cover stream end/error/timeout without provider-stop
proof and contiguous cancellation acknowledgement/request replay; all
six failed before the fix. The existing bounded cleanup case now
explicitly supplies terminal proof. All 31 adapter accounting tests pass
with isolated fixture config.
- New checkpoint-rebinding and approval-criterion suites: 65 tests pass;
runner HTTP integration: 29 tests pass. Unchanged executor/control-plane
suites: 640 tests pass; database-backed connection suites: 68 tests
pass.
- Current retained evidence verification covers 222 file hashes across
all fifteen original result artifacts. The three-case [published
report](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-37651896525-1/index.html)
and all eight screenshot hashes verify. The [three-case recovery
report](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-37662587356-1/index.html)
and all six screenshots also verify; the nine-result campaign did not
publish.
- Evaluation support: 1,805 Vitest tests pass, one skipped; 128 Node
tests pass. Eval typecheck and catalog discovery pass.
- Full local repository unit run was interrupted before the follow-up
edits after three tool-access failures and one runner HTTP failure.
Those failures pass in isolation; the 09a full run was interrupted after
one rapid Slack callback-ordering failure and seven skill-service
failures. All eight pass both isolated and with full-runner environment
settings, and all 74 skill-service tests pass together; the subsequent
full run reported two 15-second OpenCode accounting timeouts and was
stopped with exit 130 to apply review fixes. The timeouts reproduce
while copying this host’s 61 MB OpenCode config. All 31 tests pass after
isolating config inside each fixture without increasing timeouts or
changing assertions. A complete local full-suite pass is not claimed.
Repository-wide CI also passes on the final review-fix head in [run
37669185952](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37669185952).
Earlier database-skipped diagnostics and the older ENFILE run are
retained and are not full-suite passing evidence.
- Three-case live campaign
[37651896525](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37651896525)
passes all three original grades on frozen source 09a: 55/55 checks,
eight succeeded run records, complete accounting receipts, matching
checkpoint identities and no pending approvals. Campaign
[37653533353](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37653533353)
adds nine original passes (173/173 checks, eighteen succeeded records)
on the identical source. Its other three jobs failed before runner
assignment or any step while GitHub could not load the paid environment;
those original infrastructure failures are retained. Campaign
[37662587356](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37662587356)
completes only those unstarted cells: all three original grades pass
(57/57 checks, six succeeded run records). All fifteen exact cases now
pass on source 09a: eight FAIL → PASS, seven PASS → PASS, zero new
overall failures and zero pending pairs. Total current evidence: 285/285
checks and thirty-two succeeded run records, complete accounting
receipts, matching checkpoint identities, no pending approvals or retry
records. Earlier campaigns retain forty-seven additional run records and
two known same-run recovery attempts; actual provider-call counts and
invoices remain unknown. The nine-result campaign skipped publication
and its public URL returns 403; original artifacts remain retained.
Previous ba9 campaign
[37645656840](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37645656840)
completed 2 PASS / 1 FAIL: Claude restart/approval and Codex decline
pass, while OpenCode resumes but times out searching for exact tool
names and never creates the access card. That failure and incomplete
cancelled-run accounting remain preserved; the new catalog error
guidance targets this observed dead end. Campaign
[37642957312](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37642957312)
remains 0 PASS / 3 FAIL and exposed the now-corrected cross-run marker
leak and unknown-criterion approval gap. The original baseline remains 7
PASS / 8 FAIL, first repair 2 PASS / 3 FAIL, and second repair 0 PASS /
3 FAIL. All fifteen selected cases are qualified by their original
grades in this bounded trial. These live grades belong to 09a. Its
twelve governed-wait checkpoints retain matching same-turn terminal
fingerprints, but passing artifacts omit detailed event journals; the
later six adversarial regressions qualify the new terminal-proof and
replay guards separately. Final-head repository CI passes. [Fresh
Greptile
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/15471#issuecomment-6044369780)
is 5/5, confirms both findings are fixed, and reports no new actionable
issues. All review threads are resolved and the PR has no merge
conflicts.

## Risks

- Governed cancellation drains accounting for up to fifteen seconds.
Restart detachment gives a settling batch up to twenty seconds to
finish. An incomplete receipt or unproven provider terminal still
prevents successful qualification.
- Claude prices are estimates, not invoices. The estimate assumes
standard global API pricing and uses a conservative cache-write rate.
Unsupported models, billers, and billing modes remain unpriced.
- Approval identity matching must remain scoped to the current run and
the requested approval. It does not authorize execution of a declined
call.
- Original baseline and final candidate have different merged master
context. Exact-case outcomes are before/after observations, not isolated
causal attribution to this repair.
- No schema migration, fixture, oracle or grader change. Search-result
guidance now treats fuzzy external matches as suggestions. Existing app
authorization and provider-consent checks remain required.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with code editing, terminal tools, and
test execution. The exact deployment identifier and context window are
not exposed in this session.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 06484b3c41 fix: preserve conversation retries through execution cleanup (#15463)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Recovery schedules bounded retries after a provider disconnects.
> - A stopped run can still hold its environment lease while cleanup
runs.
> - Retrying before that lease is released cancels the new run before it
starts and spends another retry.
> - Restoring the task can also send the worker repair instructions from
an already resolved recovery action.
> - This pull request preserves the waiting retry and removes settled
recovery instructions from later wakes.
> - The task can continue after cleanup without an operator repairing
the same incident again.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A legacy conversation run disconnected while it was doing ordinary work.
Its environment cleanup took longer than the retry delay. Two retries
were cancelled before dispatch with `execution_reconciliation_required`.
Those cancellations exhausted the failure budget. After an operator
restored the task, the wake still told the original worker to repair the
runtime and hand the task back to itself.

**Expected behavior**

Cleanup waits preserve the pending attempt. The same retry can continue
after ownership is released, subject to all current gates. Once a
recovery action is resolved or cancelled, subsequent task wakes omit its
repair instructions.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Fail a legacy conversation run while its environment lease remains in
`pending_cleanup`.
2. Schedule a bounded retry and run promotion before cleanup releases
that lease.
3. Repeat the scheduler sweep. Before this fix, retries promote and then
cancel without starting.
4. Resolve a stranded-task recovery action and build the restored task
wake with that action ID. Before this fix, the wake still includes the
settled repair instructions.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced with database regressions against `ceabc3bc880` on master.

Related: #15019 restores a skipped assignment handoff after lease
release. #15235 filters stale handoff evidence in the recovery sweep.
This change preserves an existing scheduled conversation retry and
corrects restored wake content. It does not create a new handoff wake.

## What Changed

- Keep an unstarted legacy conversation retry on the same durable row
while prior execution ownership remains active. Recheck after 30 seconds
without increasing retry accounting.
- Return a queued retry to scheduled state if it encounters that hold at
the claim gate. Retain its issue claim and publish the status change.
- Record one local lifecycle diagnostic per blocking run. Remove that
wait marker on promotion.
- Include recovery action metadata only while the referenced action is
active or escalated.
- Return an explicit `waiting` response and the saved schedule when
Retry now meets cleanup. Show the wait inline without a false success or
disabled button.
- Add database, rendered-prompt, route, and UI regressions. Document the
execution and run-log contracts.

## Verification

- Five cleanup and restored-wake regressions fail against the original
production code. The Retry now route and UI regressions also fail before
their correction.
- Related retry, dispatch, stale-queue, and recovery suites: 321 tests
pass across seven files. All ten focused cleanup/restored-wake cases
pass after rebase. The final dispatch adjustment passes all 46 adapter
tests.
- Retry now routes and affected UI suites: all 46 tests pass. The tests
cover repeated clicks, the saved schedule, unchanged accounting,
promotion after release, and no false success or error state.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, `pnpm build-storybook`, and `pnpm
check:token-gates` pass.
- Full local `pnpm test:run` was started and then stopped after the
final commit passed all GitHub CI test shards. No complete local
full-suite result is claimed; CI supplies the complete test result for
the final commit.
- Final head `6f1058a332c039e33c4f002b296d20a5554e760e`: all 55 GitHub
checks are green or intentionally skipped. Apex review is 5/5 after two
reviews, with no unresolved threads. The PR has no merge conflicts.

## Risks

The wait applies only to unstarted legacy conversation retries. Native
runs and non-conversation execution keep their existing recovery rules.
Cleanup must actually release ownership before execution can resume. The
wait does not fix a cleanup service that never finishes. Promotion and
dispatch still enforce cancellation, reassignment, pause, budget, and
reconciliation gates. No schema change is required. The Retry now
response adds a `waiting` outcome; the shared contract and all three UI
controls handle it.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex based on GPT-6, with repository analysis, tool use, and
local code execution. The runtime does not expose the precise serving
model ID or context window.

DottaandPaperclip 8cfedd7df8 fix(runner): restore task monitors and durable timed waits (#15446)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their task execution.
> - Agents need a durable way to return to work after a delayed check.
> - The issue monitor scheduler already provides a one-shot wake for an
assignee.
> - Native runners reject generic execution-policy writes and had no
bound monitor tool.
> - Scheduling alone is insufficient because native completion also
needs to accept a timed wait.
> - This pull request adds an authorized monitor tool and connects it to
completion and the existing scheduler.
> - An agent can now schedule its next check, end the run, and resume on
the same task.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A native runner could not set its own task monitor. `call_api` correctly
rejected execution-policy writes, while `schedule_wake` had no
production binding. `paperclip_finish` also rejected monitor waits.

**Expected behavior**

A standard native run can set a one-shot monitor on its current task or
another accessible task assigned to the same agent. After a confirmed
schedule on the current task, it can yield. The scheduler later delivers
`issue_monitor_due`.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a standard native task.
2. Ask the agent to check the task again later and end its current run.
3. Inspect available tools and try the generic issue execution-policy
update.
4. Observe the missing native tool and the lifecycle-write denial.

Related PRs: #14680 concerns monitor notes in the shared wake prompt.
#11919 changes attempt-limit scope. This PR adds native scheduling and
completion authority and retains the existing cumulative attempt bounds.
It does not depend on either PR.

## What Changed

- Add provider-neutral `set_task_monitor` with a default current-task
target, future timestamp, required notes, existing bounds, and explicit
clearing.
- Check company, task visibility, ownership, runtime permissions, work
mode, and active-run authority. Preserve review-only restrictions.
Reject the reserved server-owned quota-recovery name before saving or
accepting a native wait.
- Commit the monitor, audit event, and retry receipt together. Retry
receipts survive a successor run without re-arming cleared or consumed
timers.
- Permit `paperclip_finish` to yield to a persisted monitor. Recheck
ownership and the schedule when committing final disposition. Release
execution without an immediate continuation.
- Preserve due monitors during native execution. Fence wake admission
and consumption against replacement, clearing, reassignment, and
completion. Preserve unrelated review policy.
- Expose scheduled and consumed monitor instructions in task context.
Update provider schemas, Rust validation, generated contracts, and
execution documentation.
- Add an opt-in live Codex smoke script with isolated data and explicit
run/session/runner/process evidence.

## Verification

- Repository `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed after rebase.
Server typecheck passed again after review fixes. All CI test shards
pass on `3def77b1b`, including runner TypeScript/Rust, server,
serialized server, workspace, and browser tests. All CI gates are green,
including the canary dry run. Greptile is 5/5 on the same commit with
zero unresolved threads.
- The local monolithic `pnpm test:run`, started before the rebase, was
interrupted after current-head CI test coverage passed. It is not
counted as a standalone full-suite pass; the focused local regression
suites passed.
- Targeted server tests cover scheduling, replacement, clearing, policy
preservation, cumulative bounds, cross-run retries, permissions,
provider-neutral discovery, review restrictions, completion authority,
and scheduler/finalizer races.
- Runner contract/catalog/semantic tests and Rust terminal-tool tests
cover the new operation and monitor completion.
- Live Codex test passed twice (latest live run on `e0bcd63e6`) in a
temporary database and workspace, with a 300,000 ms warm window. First
run `67bd7709-c089-4d4a-9d2b-0d6b618a34b0` yielded at
`2026-10-07T13:15:03.274Z`. Second run
`97c323f9-595a-4cc5-a007-db5a2fbb937c` started at `13:15:30.952Z`,
received `issue_monitor_due`, and completed the same task. Exactly one
monitor wake was recorded.
- Both live runs used native session
`7b1dd753-1c9b-4e7a-b22f-a125dbc3748c`, runner
`e90d9a1b-3502-4ee3-b15e-edc024c555d4`, provider session
`01a11680-6d01-70c0-9a55-db7246ed66c3`, and PID `64218` with the same
process start time. This proves warm reuse for that local Codex test,
not only successful scheduling.
- Reproduce the paid live test with `node --import
./server/node_modules/tsx/dist/loader.mjs
server/scripts/smoke-native-task-monitor.ts --run`, with the installed
Codex binary on `PATH` and a valid local login.

## Risks

- The scheduler now defers monitor dispatch while the task has an active
native run. A stuck run still depends on the existing recovery
lifecycle.
- Idempotency uses the existing run ledger; no table or migration is
added.
- Other providers share the tested tool and completion contracts. Only
Codex received a live model test.
- Existing `call_api` lifecycle restrictions remain enforced. Monitor
waits do not bypass task blockers, reviews, or approvals.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with tool use, code execution, and
TypeScript/Rust editing. The session does not expose the exact deployed
model ID or context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip faa8e452c7 fix(tasks): stop repeated reminders for historical questions (#15392)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Task questions remain saved so a person can answer them later.
> - The composer moves an old question into history after a newer human
message.
> - Native completion still treated every pending question as a required
response.
> - This caused agents to demand an old answer after the person moved
work forward.
> - This pull request shares the historical-question rule across context
and task execution.
> - Agents can finish verified work while the original question remains
answerable.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15229, Refs #14613, Refs #13130.

**What happened?**

An agent repeatedly asked a person to answer a question that had moved
into feed history. Completion feedback explicitly told the agent to
request a response. The saved pending row also blocked task completion.

**Expected behavior**

A question before newer human direction remains answerable in the feed.
Its pending state alone must not require another reminder or stop
completed work. A new input blocker, an approval, or a configured review
stage must keep its gate.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Let a task agent create an ordinary question.
2. Dismiss the question and send a newer task message.
3. Let the agent finish the requested work and submit its completion
report.
4. Observe a demand to answer the old question and a retained completion
gate.

## What Changed

- Add one company-scoped predicate for historical questions. Only later
human comments count. Exclude agent attribution, run attribution, system
notices, and untrusted source data.
- Apply the predicate to completion feedback, native waits,
finalization, commit validation, retry validation, blocked routing, and
successful-run handoff.
- Include question classification and guidance in heartbeat context and
both native task-context tools. Add the guidance to fresh and resumed
task prompts.
- Replace automatic reminders for current ordinary questions with
instructions to assess the real blocker, continue independent work, and
withdraw obsolete questions through the existing API.
- Preserve historical question rows during completion while cancelling
their live native source runs through the existing post-commit and
recovery paths. Let an authorized human answer them after completion
without reopening work or creating a response wake. Preserve
cancellation, current-input, approval, permission, credential,
connection, and review gates. Add no dismissal storage or migration.
- Document the rule in the execution contract and agent skill. Refresh
generated capability source anchors. Add database-backed status,
context, attribution, and governance regression tests.

## Verification

- `pnpm build` passed. The server rebuild also passed after the
lifecycle fix. Generated capability contract and inventory checks passed
after the agent documentation update.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed. Final `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server
exec tsc --noEmit` also passed after the last test additions.
- Lifecycle and interaction regressions passed: 224 tests in 3 suites.
Context and prompt tests also passed. Final historical-question cases
passed (33 tests), native cancellation/recovery cases passed (6 tests),
and the existing interaction/confirmation suites passed (72 tests). The
full local `pnpm test:run` was attempted and stopped after more than two
hours with unrelated fixture/hook timeout failures; it did not pass. All
52 successful GitHub checks are green on the latest commit, including
the complete test matrix; no checks are pending or failing. Greptile is
5/5 and both review threads are resolved.
- Regression cases cover the old-question/new-human-message sequence,
final task status, answering after completion with no wake, live-run
cancellation and crash recovery, current input blockers, both
task-context tools, API context, timestamp precision, attribution
boundaries, and protected gates.

## Risks

- A later human task message makes an earlier ordinary question
historical even if its input is still missing. The agent must identify
the current blocker and ask only for information that still prevents
work.
- Browser dismissal remains a local preference. Dismissal without a
later human message is not recorded by this change.
- No schema change or data migration. Completion retains ordinary
historical questions; cancellation still expires them. A completed task
accepts historical answers only from an authorized human and creates no
response-delivery outbox row. Governed requests retain their gates.

## Model Used

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

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 228f0e2807 fix(ui): make pull request review waits visible (#15375)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets people supervise agent work and review its outputs.
> - A task can wait for a human to review a pull request while an agent
schedules checks.
> - The PR work product and detected external links use separate display
paths.
> - A private PR can disappear from the useful sidebar view when its
provider lookup fails.
> - The monitor countdown says when the next check runs but omits the
saved review request.
> - This change shows the saved PR and requested review in the task's
existing surfaces.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A task kept checking whether a private GitHub PR had merged. Its work
product requested board review, but the Properties sidebar used detected
external objects instead. The PR URL was stored only in metadata, which
the PR refresh path did not read. The composer showed a generic monitor
countdown with no PR link or review action.

**Expected behavior**

Show saved PR links even if provider access fails. During a GitHub
monitor wait, make outstanding review requests visible with the next
check time and a status-check action. Stop requesting review when a PR
merges or closes.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Register a PR work product with `reviewState: needs_board_review` and
its URL in `metadata.url`.
2. Schedule an external-service monitor for GitHub.
3. Open the task with external-object lookup unavailable or unable to
access the private repository.
4. Inspect Properties and the composer wait strip.

Related work: #14469 added rich artifact cards. #8759 addresses
attention on monitored task blockers. This change uses the existing work
products and monitor action; it adds no blocker or approval mechanism.

## What Changed

- Show saved PRs in Properties, including metadata-only links,
independent of external-object availability.
- Deduplicate equivalent GitHub PR URLs while preserving the saved
navigation link, and put explicit review requests first.
- Keep provider status and freshness on the combined PR row; keep
private PR links usable when lookup fails.
- Show the saved PR review request above the composer and in the
existing monitor banner during a GitHub monitor wait.
- Label the existing monitor action `Check status` and show check
failures inline.
- Suppress review prompts for merged, closed, or archived PRs even if
their review flag is stale.
- Refresh PR metadata using `metadata.url` and the existing `repository`
alias.
- Share saved work-product reads across the thread, Properties, and
Artifacts. Refresh GitHub in a separate query and enrich only matching
PR versions.
- Start a fresh saved-row request on live invalidation so late provider
responses cannot hide new artifacts or changed review requests.
- Cover stalled GitHub lookups in both panels so refresh latency cannot
hide saved work.
- Scope monitor-check mutation state to the task so failures and late
responses do not leak across navigation.
- Refresh GitHub status when the displayed run finishes, including when
saved PR rows have not changed.
- Clarify that PR review and external release handoffs need a saved
human-input interaction with an agent assigned for continuation; a flag,
monitor, or handoff comment alone does not create that card.

## Verification

- 386 tests pass across eleven affected UI and server suites on
`184c7d8746`. Regressions cover saved links, provider status, cold-cache
loading, panel reopening, monitor errors during navigation, and live
updates during provider refresh.
- Three live-update regressions and two run-completion regressions fail
before their fixes and pass afterward. These tests use the real API
client's GET coalescing and abort handling.
- Full repository typecheck and build passed on the merged parent
`1a49112dd2`. The latest UI changes pass UI typecheck and token gates;
CI also verifies the latest build. Capability contract/inventory checks
pass.
- Storybook build and browser checks passed before the query race fix.
Browser checks cover desktop and 390px mobile review waits, plus video,
mixed-file, and empty artifact galleries after background refresh.
- The earlier full local `pnpm test:run` was stopped under disk
pressure. It reported failures outside the changed suites; an isolated
skill-cache run reproduced three existing macOS permission failures. The
full local suite was not rerun for this follow-up.
- Latest-head CI passes on `184c7d8746`, including the browser shards
and canary dry run. Apex is 5/5 with no actionable findings and no
unresolved threads. All eight reported findings are addressed.

## Risks

- This uses saved PR review state. When GitHub access fails, the saved
state can remain stale until the agent updates it. The link remains
visible and the status check remains available.
- `Check status` wakes the existing monitor owner. It does not merge a
PR, accept an approval, or mark the task done.
- No schema, permissions, or scheduler behavior changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 via Codex, with reasoning, repository analysis, code
editing, and test execution. The exact deployment model ID and context
window were not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip f2715e02bb fix(native): surface model capacity errors and retry automatically (#15347)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native runs preserve provider events and results, then decide task
state.
> - Codex can fail a turn because the selected model is temporarily at
capacity.
> - Paperclip displayed a generic native-session failure and left the
task in recovery.
> - A known capacity failure needs a clear message and a durable delayed
retry.
> - This pull request uses committed terminal evidence, the
status-effect ledger, and existing dispatch gates.
> - The task can continue automatically without an unbounded retry loop
or a model switch.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #13993 adds launcher capacity deferrals before provider
startup. This change handles a committed native Codex `serverOverloaded`
terminal after provider work has started.

**What happened?**
A native Codex turn ended with `codexErrorInfo: serverOverloaded` and
“Selected model is at capacity. Please try a different model.” Paperclip
saved the result, showed a generic failure, and required recovery
instead of waiting and retrying.

**Expected behavior**
Show the capacity error directly. Schedule bounded retries after a short
delay. Preserve saved work and honor current execution gates.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run a native Codex task.
2. Commit a `turn.failed` event with `serverOverloaded`, then accept a
failed result for the same turn.
3. Inspect the task error and its recovery state. The regression test
reproduces this without a paid provider call.

**Paperclip version or commit**
Reproduced against master `16b7db35ffa0f9a95913c8cbdeea3d595435691f`.

## What Changed

- Classify capacity failures from committed runner events and the pinned
execution identity. Preserve accepted results and display the specific
capacity error.
- Atomically persist one scheduled successor with the status decision.
Retry after one minute, then two minutes. Share the existing failure
budget and stop after two automatic retries.
- Reuse dispatch gates for ownership, task holds, dependencies, budget,
and locks. Wait for predecessor execution, finalization, and cleanup
before claiming a retry.
- Preserve pending reviewer authority and suppress retries after
reassignment or a successor claim.
- Consume the failed run's resume receipt and delivered wake input.
Rebuild ordinary continuation from the failed run so explicitly resumed
tasks can retry without borrowing one-run authorization.
- Label scheduled retries “Model at capacity.” Add a Storybook example
and avoid duplicate punctuation in the existing retry card.
- Add regression coverage and document the runtime contract.

## Verification

- Targeted recovery and UI suites: 125 tests passed. Additional final
cleanup and lock regressions passed.
- Latest-head continuation and authorization regressions: 57 tests
passed, including all four capacity integration tests against an
isolated PostgreSQL database.
- Rechecked all four capacity integration tests with the full runner's
isolated `PAPERCLIP_HOME`, config, temporary directory, and serial fork
settings: passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed. Final server typecheck passed.
- `pnpm build`: passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates`: passed.
- Browser: checked the real Storybook card. It shows the capacity
message, automatic retry time, and existing Retry now action.
- `pnpm test:run`: attempted and restarted after an interruption. The
resumed run started before the final review correction and was stopped
after recorded workspace/native test failures and the five-minute Git
streaming timeout already documented on master. Exit 130; no complete
local full-suite pass is claimed. Current-head isolated capacity tests
and the complete CI suite pass.
- A combined local recovery-suite attempt also hit PostgreSQL
initialization failures at this macOS host's global shared-memory limit
(32 slots). The focused recovery suites passed separately; final-head
capacity tests also pass with the full runner's isolated environment
settings.
- Latest-head GitHub checks: all 56 checks green, including general and
serialized test shards, browser E2E, typecheck, build, Runner
verification, and canary dry run. No merge conflicts.
- Greptile: 5/5 on `813a470b8c18c05aeb7e31e63e573c3a3a2f5cac`, with zero
unresolved findings after fixing the resumed-task continuation issue.

## Risks

- Capacity retries can repeat a task turn after partial work. They start
a fresh provider session with task history and wait for predecessor
cleanup. They do not resume the failed turn.
- Retries retain the configured model unless an operator changes
configuration. Persistent overload consumes the existing failure budget
and then needs an explicit retry or model change.
- Only run-bound native Codex `serverOverloaded` failures qualify.
Usage-limit exhaustion, model/account incompatibility, unbound text, and
unknown provider failures retain their current recovery behavior.
- No schema migration is required.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex. The exact model ID and context-window size
are not exposed to this session. Used reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and browser verification. No subagents.

DottaandPaperclip 63f3aa2dbf fix(runner): continue restart-interrupted Codex turns (#15297)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native runs retain their provider conversation across server
restarts.
> - A dead runner can restore a Codex conversation after its active turn
is lost.
> - The old recovery path synthesized a failed task result from that
interruption.
> - The task then required operator action even though its conversation
and workspace were available.
> - This pull request preserves the interruption cause and uses the
admitted restart attempt for one continuation in the same conversation.
> - The agent can reconcile unfinished actions and complete the current
request without resending the original task.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #12845 added native restart recovery. #15042 covers admission
during shutdown. #14796 covers legacy shutdown recovery. This change
covers a lost native Codex turn after successful conversation
restoration.

**What happened?**

After a server restart killed the local runner, Paperclip restored the
saved Codex thread. Runnerd found that the old turn was no longer
active. It synthesized a failed terminal and a needs-review result from
the last progress message. The transport also discarded the terminal
error when it reconstructed thread history. The task failed instead of
continuing.

**Expected behavior**

After proving that the old process stopped and admitting a bounded
recovery attempt, resume the current request in the same conversation.
Preserve the workspace. Inspect unfinished actions before proceeding.
Keep real provider failures, accepted results, intentional stops,
unknown unreconciled effects, and exhausted attempts subject to their
existing rules.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a local native Codex run and leave its turn active.
2. Kill the isolated runner and provider processes, as can happen during
a server restart.
3. Restore the same provider thread with no active turn.
4. Observe the synthetic task failure. The new real-process regression
reproduces this boundary with a scripted provider.

## What Changed

- Record an explicit recoverable process-loss cause without inventing a
task result.
- Preserve terminal errors and prior turns in reconstructed provider
history. Recover the authoritative saved result when adopting an
accepted continuation.
- Send one continuation in the same conversation for an admitted
dead-runner recovery. Require reconciliation of unfinished commands and
external actions.
- Persist the interrupted terminal before submission and retain the
existing recovery marker across another controller loss.
- Keep provider attempt limits, terminal failures, and intentional
cancellation behavior.
- Add red/green regressions, real process-kill coverage, restart
checkpoint coverage, and retry-budget coverage. Document the behavior
and run-log evidence.

## Verification

- Red: the new native runtime regression rejected with
`NativeProviderTerminalFailure` on the original code; the Rust restore
regression found a missing recovery cause.
- Red/green: if restoring the conversation fails and replacement is
allowed, the replacement receives the full task and fresh-session
handoff. Both prepared and legacy execution inputs are covered.
- Red: a second controller crash after the provider accepted the
continuation caused an extra `turn/start`. The regression now proves
there are exactly two submissions total: the original and its
continuation.
- Green: focused runtime, backend, driver recovery, and real-process
restart suites (207 tests). After the final history/result changes,
driver recovery and real-process restart suites passed again (36 tests).
- Green: complete Codex transport suite (186 tests), server restart
classification/database integration suites (34 tests), and Rust Codex
provider suite (92 passed, 2 ignored).
- Full `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed on `60141e649`. The
subsequent replacement-prompt guard passed the Runner TypeScript check
and the complete runtime plus process-restart suites (148 tests).
- Local full-suite attempt: `pnpm test:run` reported two failures in the
untouched chat integration suite. Both passed individually, and the
complete chat suite passed on rerun (1,063 tests). After all remote test
shards passed, the duplicate serial local run was stopped with SIGINT;
it is not claimed as a full local-suite pass.
- Latest-head CI (`b1297dcd4`): 55 successful checks and 4 intentionally
skipped checks, including all test shards, typecheck, build, native
Runner verification, end-to-end tests, and canary dry run. [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37405346303).
- Greptile: 5/5 on the latest head, with no unresolved review threads.
The PR is mergeable.
- The process tests use the real runner binary and a scripted Codex
provider. They do not call a live model service.

## Risks

- This changes local Codex recovery after process loss. A continuation
can execute more work in the retained conversation. Its prompt requires
state inspection before repeating an uncertain action; the system does
not replay tool calls.
- Recovery shares the existing three-attempt budget and one-shot
continuation marker. Real failures and older unmarked failed checkpoints
are not reopened.
- No database migration or API change is required.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6. The exact model ID and context-window
size are not exposed in this session.
- Capabilities: reasoning, source inspection, tool use, code editing,
code execution, and test analysis.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip e99854249c fix(workspaces): restore rebased sandbox history against its starting snapshot (#15268)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and preserves their work across runs.
> - Sandbox execution restores Git history and files to the host
workspace.
> - An agent can rebase or amend its branch before it finishes.
> - Restore currently treats the original and rewritten tips as
concurrent work.
> - That merge can conflict even when the host has not changed.
> - This change uses the starting Git snapshot to accept rewritten
history safely.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A successful sandbox turn can end with `workspace_restore_failed` after
the agent rebases and pushes its branch. The restore step merges the
original host tip with the rewritten sandbox tip. This can recreate
conflicts that the agent already resolved.

**Expected behavior**

Accept the rewritten history when the host still has the recorded
starting branch and commit. Preserve concurrent host work through the
existing merge and recovery paths.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a sandbox from a feature branch.
2. Rebase that branch onto an upstream commit that changes the same
file. Resolve the conflict in the sandbox.
3. Restore the sandbox while the host remains on the original commit.
4. The old implementation attempts a conflicting Git merge and fails the
run after the agent finishes.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on `cab4263dc9` with a real Git rebase fixture.

**Deployment mode**

Self-hosted server with sandbox execution.

Related work: #15005 records restore failure stages. #11638 preserves
unrelated imported history with a graft. #10601 handles bundle
prerequisites. Those changes do not distinguish a rebase from a
concurrent host edit.

## What Changed

- Pass the run's starting Git branch and commit into sandbox history
integration.
- Adopt a related rewritten tip when the host still matches that
snapshot. Keep the expected-old-value ref update and bounded retry.
- Verify the branch attachment inside a prepared Git transaction while
Git holds its ref locks. Abort if a checkout changed the branch.
- Check host and sandbox Git identity before warm reuse, including
nested repositories. Restage when their tips or branches differ.
- Reject host branch changes and unrelated imports after a concurrent
host commit.
- Retain the existing unrelated-history graft for an unchanged host and
the conservative behavior for callers without a snapshot.
- Export a full bundle for an intentional reset to an ancestor so
restore receives the actual sandbox tip.
- Add real Git and sandbox restore regressions. Document the restore
contract.

## Verification

- Eight Git sync, sandbox restore, and native workspace suites pass: 255
tests.
- The new checkout-race and warm-reuse regressions failed before the
fixes. Real Git hooks verify that prepared transactions prevent a
concurrent HEAD change.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed after rebasing onto `984f092ddf` and
applying the Apex findings.
- `pnpm build` passed on `f5132603d6`.
- The earlier `pnpm test:run` attempt reported three
`company-skills-service.test.ts` failures on macOS (`EACCES` renaming a
read-only staging directory). The same failures reproduced on unchanged
master. The broader run was stopped after confirming that baseline
failure; it was not a full-suite pass. Those source and test files are
unchanged in the current base.
- [Apex
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/15268#issuecomment-6002549219):
5/5 on `f5132603d6`, requested with `@greptileai apex review`. All three
historical findings are addressed and all review threads are resolved.
- All CI gates passed on `f5132603d6` (53 successful checks, two
skipped). The signoff-policy browser fixture initially timed out waiting
for a local process-agent run; its one retry passed without code
changes. [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37387511152)

## Risks

- A recorded starting snapshot now authorizes replacement of related
rewritten history. A stale or changed host tip retains the
concurrent-history path. Ref writes still compare the expected old
commit.
- Branch changes and unrelated rewrites after host advancement require
recovery instead of replacing host work.
- An intentional reset to an ancestor uses a full bundle. Large
histories can increase transfer time in that case.
- The existing directory merge rules remain in force. The fix does not
resolve an earlier failed restore or replay its external actions.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 2e67ea8dc7 fix: renew explicit continuation authorization for bounded retries (#14987)
Preserve exact user-authorized continuation receipts across bounded retries and retain the task claim through owned retry admission. Stop, reassignment, superseding input, and active cleanup continue to block unsafe continuation.

Validation: exact-head Greptile 5/5, passing CI, no unresolved review threads, and a clean merge. Detailed verification and limitations are recorded in the pull request.

DottaandPaperclip ffe5e9e2a8 fix: retain execution evidence for Retry and saved input (#15033)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets people steer and recover AI-agent conversations.
> - Recovery eligibility depends on retained cancellation receipts.
> - Run presentation intentionally omits result JSON on SQL_ASCII
databases and reduces oversized output.
> - Retry and the saved-input sweep mistakenly used that presentation
read for admission.
> - The banner could offer Retry while the endpoint rejected the same
stopped run.
> - Read the narrow execution-evidence fields for internal admission and
keep normal presentation unchanged.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15024 and #15015. Searched existing recovery and redaction PRs; no
duplicate fix found.

**What happened?**

On a SQL_ASCII instance, a verified pre-dispatch review-wait
cancellation offers Retry in the recovery notice. Clicking it returns an
eligibility conflict, and a saved user message remains deferred. The
notice reads the retained database receipt, but the endpoint and sweep
read a presentation projection where `resultJson` is null.

**Expected behavior**

Retry and saved user input use the recorded execution evidence and
ordinary admission gates, independent of presentation redaction. Public
run reads retain their existing encoding and output-size protections.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Record a cancelled, unclaimed review-wait continuation and its
recovery hold.
2. Use the SQL_ASCII presentation projection, where run result JSON is
omitted.
3. Click Retry or save a new user message and let the recovery sweep
inspect it.
4. Verify a fresh turn starts once, with no replay of consumed input.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on `9ae3d8db3`.

**Deployment mode**

Authenticated private self-hosted server with a SQL_ASCII database.

## What Changed

- Add an explicit internal read of cancellation, startup, review-wait,
tool-inventory, and Stop evidence; omit provider diagnostics.
- Use that read in the Retry route, wakeup validation, and saved-input
continuation checks.
- Preserve the distinction between absent result JSON and an
unrecognized stored result.
- Cover the reproduced SQL_ASCII Retry and saved-input failures,
retained public redaction, native Stop behavior, and excluded provider
output.
- Document the presentation and admission distinction.

## Verification

- Red: four selected assertions fail before the fix, including the
SQL_ASCII eligibility conflict and saved input remaining deferred.
- Targeted green regressions and existing native Stop cases pass.
- Workspace `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass.
- All 626 affected recovery, continuation, and route tests pass,
including 22 focused admission and native Stop cases. Current-head CI
has 54 passing gates and 2 skipped optional Storybook checks. Greptile
reviewed `9b94af91e295a4e8007dfc6bff6a8d532d945e36` at 5/5 with no
findings or open review threads. No complete local monolithic pass is
claimed; the complete suite runs in sharded CI.

## Risks

Admission still checks recorded process and controller ownership,
provider events, cleanup, company scope, user authority, pending
decisions, and task holds. The evidence projection must retain every
field used by these eligibility predicates; existing native Stop cases
guard against dropping its acknowledgement receipt. No schema,
dependency, UI, or public response change.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, an agent based on GPT-6. The exact runtime model ID and
context window are not exposed in this session. Used reasoning,
repository tools, code execution, and browser inspection.

DottaandPaperclip 9ae3d8db3d fix: keep pre-dispatch review waits out of execution recovery (#15024)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The queued-run gate can cancel a continuation that must wait for
review.
> - This cancellation happens before execution authority or a provider
starts.
> - Recovery currently treats the gate receipt as unknown provider
execution.
> - That mistake blocks a conversation after a successful reply and
hides Retry.
> - This pull request recognizes only the recorded, unclaimed
review-wait state.
> - Review waits keep their normal disposition path, and new user input
can recover older false holds.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15015, #15020, and #15022. Related #11614 narrows the review
posture that causes cancellation; this change corrects recovery after a
valid cancellation.

**What happened?**

After a successful agent reply, the queued-run gate cancelled an
automatic continuation with `issue_continuation_waiting_on_review`. The
gate retained `timeoutSource: stale_queued_run_gate` and a matching stop
reason. No execution authority or provider started. Recovery still
created an unknown-action hold, moved the task to Blocked, and hid
Retry.

**Expected behavior**

Use normal review-wait disposition repair for this recorded state. Allow
Retry, a new user message, or saved undelivered input to recover an
older false hold after ordinary admission checks pass. Preserve the
cancelled run and do not replay its input.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Finish an agent turn on an open task that has a real review target.
2. Let the automatic continuation reach the queued-run review gate.
3. Refresh after the cancelled run is checked by recovery.
4. Confirm a review wait is handled as a wait rather than unknown
provider work.
5. Reproduce an older false hold for the same receipt, then request
Retry or send a new message.
6. Confirm only one fresh turn starts, and contradictory execution or
cleanup evidence retains the hold.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on `215586d127`.

**Deployment mode**

Authenticated private self-hosted server, built from source.

## What Changed

- Recognize the exact review-wait dispatch receipt only while all
execution claims remain unset.
- Exempt recovery only after checking retained launch and provider
events, coordinators, and environment cleanup. Keep the synchronous
classifier conservative without that database proof.
- Apply the verified classification to automatic recovery, heartbeat
retries, and stranded-queue release, so saved user input starts once.
- Reuse guarded startup admission for Retry, new input, and saved input
on older false holds.
- Show a precise review-wait notice and keep continuation guidance
consistent with Retry availability.
- Verify provider events, launch events, coordinators, and cleanup
before admission.
- Add five initial red regressions, three additional red recovery
evidence regressions, concurrent saved-input coverage, and negative
evidence checks.
- Document the review-wait contract.

## Verification

- Red: five regressions fail on unchanged master. Existing review-wait
and contradictory-evidence cases still pass.
- Workspace `pnpm -r typecheck` passes.
- All 752 affected recovery, continuation, queue, classification, and
retry-scheduling tests pass.
- Three additional review regressions failed before the database proof
was added; all 12 focused review-wait cases then pass.
- Workspace `pnpm build` passes.
- Saved-input promotion and recovery notice regressions fail before
their fixes and pass afterward.
- Current-head CI has 54 passing checks and 2 skipped optional Storybook
checks. Greptile reviewed `0bf1437110e1617ae4544afa41f4319eac763dba` at
5/5 with zero open findings. The complete suite runs in sharded CI. No
complete local monolithic pass is claimed; an earlier long run was
stopped, and its unrelated failing case passed in isolation.

## Risks

The error code alone cannot establish that no provider started. This
exception also requires the server gate receipt, matching stop reason,
and null execution authority fields. User admission separately checks
coordinator, launch and provider events, environment cleanup, pending
decisions, ownership, task holds, budget, and active execution. No
migration or dependency change.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, an agent based on GPT-6. The exact runtime model ID and
context window are not exposed in this session. Used reasoning,
repository tools, code execution, and browser inspection.

DottaandPaperclip 215586d127 fix: settle interrupted preparation with a retained cancellation fence (#15022)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A cancelled preparation must preserve history while allowing a new
user turn.
> - Older preparation can retain its cancellation fence but omit the
unwind marker.
> - The controller from that older boot is gone, its lease expired, and
no provider started.
> - Use the same narrow preparation proof for this retained-fence state.
> - The benefit is working Retry and saved-message recovery after
interrupted startup.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15020 and #15015. Related #13293 addresses post-launch recovery.

**What happened?**

A preparation interrupted before native selection retained
`startupCancellation.beforeNativeSelection: true` but no
preparation-settled marker. Its owner expired across restart and it had
no environment leases. The missing-receipt compatibility rule did not
recognize the retained fence, leaving Retry absent and saved messages
deferred.

**Expected behavior**

Admit one new user turn when the preparation evidence agrees, the old
controller expired, and cleanup is complete. Preserve previous results
and do not replay the cancelled input.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Cancel Paperclip Runner preparation before runtime selection.
2. Retain the cancellation fence without an unwind marker or environment
leases.
3. Restart after its old controller lease expires.
4. Send a new message, select Retry, or allow the saved-message worker
to reconsider new input.
5. Confirm one successor receives only undelivered input. Repeat with
live ownership, invocation evidence, or pending cleanup and confirm
execution stays held.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on `94f6f3eb4`.

**Deployment mode**

Authenticated private self-hosted server, built from source.

## What Changed

- Accept a retained before-selection cancellation fence in the expired
historical preparation proof.
- Retain runtime, stage, adapter, ownership expiry, process, event, and
cleanup requirements.
- Extend Retry, fresh-message, partial-queue, concurrent-worker, and
contradictory-evidence tests to both receipt states.
- Document recovery when the preparation-settled marker was not
retained.

## Verification

- Red: five exact-state regressions fail on the parent commit.
- Green: all 203 continuation tests pass, including the five new
regressions and 13 additional negative evidence cases. Process recovery
and queued-comment routes add 413 passing tests.
- A read-only candidate service check against the retained live run
returns Retry eligibility without changing any task state.
- An unrelated containment assertion failed once in CI. All 85 tests in
that route suite pass locally and the CI shard passes on rerun.
- Workspace `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass.
- Final head `48240de3d`: all 54 CI checks pass, two optional Storybook
checks skip, and Greptile is 5/5 with zero unresolved threads. The
complete local monolithic suite is covered by sharded CI; the earlier
local run was stopped after a workspace case failed, and that case
passed in isolation.
- After merge, deploy the exact merged commit and verify an actual agent
reply through the task composer.

## Risks

A cancellation receipt alone must not certify that provider execution
stopped. This path still requires unresolved preparation, no native
identity or coordinator, an expired controller from another boot, no
launch or provider evidence, and completed environment cleanup.
Current-boot preparation remains held until it settles. No schema or
dependency change.

DottaandPaperclip 94f6f3eb47 fix: recover historical interrupted native preparation (#15020)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A task conversation must accept new user input after an interrupted
startup.
> - Native startup begins with a legacy preparation row before runtime
selection.
> - Older builds did not retain the startup cancellation receipt on that
row.
> - The immutable adapter claim and expired controller can still prove
that no provider started.
> - This pull request uses that narrow proof for explicit Retry and
saved user input.
> - The benefit is a conversation that recovers after an upgrade without
repeating old work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15015. Related #13293 covers retained process evidence after
provider startup. This change covers interrupted preparation before
native runtime selection.

**What happened?**

After an upgrade, a task stopped during native preparation can still
show automatic recovery stopped. A new user message saves but does not
start. Retry is absent because the historical run has no cancellation
receipt.

**Expected behavior**

Offer Retry and admit new user input when immutable run evidence proves
that no provider started and cleanup is complete. Preserve incomplete or
contradictory evidence as a recovery hold.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Retain a cancelled run with the Paperclip Runner adapter claim, an
unresolved runtime, and the preparing stage.
2. Keep its old controller boot ID and expired lease. Retain no native
identity, coordinator, result, process identity, or provider events.
3. Upgrade from a build that did not save the startup cancellation
receipt.
4. Send a new user message or select Retry. Confirm that one fresh turn
starts.
5. Repeat with an active controller, a provider launch, or unfinished
cleanup. Confirm that execution stays held.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on `cc67d4e1d` with a historical interrupted preparation row.

**Deployment mode**

Authenticated private self-hosted server, built from source.

## What Changed

- Recognize historical interrupted native preparation from immutable run
evidence and an expired controller from another server boot.
- Reject adapter invocation evidence in the startup proof. Keep process
and environment cleanup checks.
- Apply the same proof to saved user messages in the bounded recovery
worker.
- Recheck saved-message eligibility under the existing task and run
locks. Keep normal ownership, decision, pause, and budget gates.
- Add regression tests for Retry, a new message, concurrent
saved-message recovery, and contradictory evidence. Document the
compatibility rule.

## Verification

- Red: Retry, new-message recovery, and saved-message recovery fail on
the parent commit.
- Green: 185 continuation tests, 335 process-recovery tests, and 78
queued-comment route tests pass. Two additional red regressions cover
partially delivered saved queues and pass after the admission fix.
- Workspace `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass.
- Final head `48db53f4f`: all 54 CI checks pass; two optional Storybook
checks skip. Greptile is 5/5 with zero unresolved threads.
- The local monolithic `pnpm test:run` was stopped after CI passed. One
unrelated workspace case failed in that long run; all three workspace
reconciliation cases pass in isolation. No complete local monolithic
pass is claimed.
- After merge, deploy the exact merged commit and verify recovery
through the normal task composer.

## Risks

Historical compatibility could grant a new turn without enough startup
evidence. The proof requires an immutable native adapter claim, an
unresolved preparing stage, no result or native identity, an expired
controller from another server boot, and no invocation or provider
evidence. Environment cleanup remains mandatory. The fix does not replay
old input or change historical run results. No schema or dependency
change.

DottaandPaperclip cc67d4e1d8 fix: preserve steering and recover stopped task conversations (#15015)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A task conversation must let a user guide a running agent and resume
stopped work.
> - The active run owns its input protocol, even when the user changes
the next model or effort.
> - Queue delivery waits for a provider receipt, which must be able to
persist during the request.
> - A stopped startup also needs a clear user action that passes normal
task admission.
> - This pull request fixes steering delivery, makes queue actions
immediate, and restores explicit continuation.
> - The benefit is a responsive conversation that can recover without
losing saved input.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A queued message could change from Steer to Interrupt while a native run
prepared. A steer request could wait on its own database lock and fail
to deliver. A stopped startup could then leave the conversation without
a working Retry or message continuation. Interrupt also waited for the
server and showed a toast.

**Expected behavior**

The active run keeps its input protocol. Steer delivers input to that
run. Steer and Interrupt clear the submitted queue rows and show the
input in the conversation immediately. Failed delivery restores the
latest queue with an inline error. An eligible stopped run offers Retry,
and authenticated user input can start a fresh turn through normal task
admission.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a task with a native Paperclip Runner.
2. Change the selected model or effort while that run prepares.
3. Queue a message and press Steer.
4. Observe the provider receipt and queue state during the request.
5. Stop a startup before its provider process begins, then try Retry or
send a new message.
6. Repeat queued delivery with a legacy runner and press Interrupt.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on the parent of this branch, `59c07ede7`.

**Deployment mode**

Authenticated private deployment. The fixes also cover local task
conversations.

Related work: Refs #12834, Refs #13354, Refs #13275. The open refactor
in #13160 moves the same queue route; it does not fix the receipt lock
or stopped-run continuation addressed here.

## What Changed

- Select queue behavior from the active run's immutable dispatch and
runtime resolution.
- Leave the run row unlocked during provider acknowledgement, then lock
and read it before merging the receipt.
- Retain queued input if the target run stops during that wait. Keep
inline delivery errors visible after empty queue updates.
- Permit exact Retry and authenticated continuation after verified
native startup cancellation. Preserve pause, approval, budget,
ownership, and process-stop gates.
- Carry undelivered native queue input into a fresh turn once the old
execution is confirmed stopped.
- Show Steer and Interrupt input in the conversation and clear submitted
composer rows immediately. Restore the latest queue inline on failure.
Remove delivery toasts.
- Keep optimistic delivery stable across stale polls, empty queues, and
paginated history. Preserve classic Interrupt error handling.
- Document recovery and optimistic delivery behavior. Add regression
tests across server, shared queue projection, and UI boundaries.

## Verification

- Red-green regression tests reproduced the queue protocol, receipt
lock, stopped-startup continuation, and optimistic delivery failures.
- The focused server route, continuation, queue, and runner boundary
suites passed during implementation.
- The queue-route suite passes with 78 tests. The three complete
conversation UI suites pass with 347 tests.
- UI typecheck, production build, and `pnpm check:token-gates` pass.
- Workspace `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass. The local
monolithic `pnpm test:run` is still running; remote CI verifies the
complete suite on the latest commit.
- All CI gates pass on `bd9031ad56abfcde13d13a13488c1b9217c2fd3a`,
including the full test shards, runner verification, browser E2E,
typecheck, release registry, and canary dry run.
- Greptile reports 5/5 for that commit. Both review threads are
resolved.

## Risks

This changes queue display and explicit continuation admission. The UI
must restore rejected delivery without losing other-session edits. The
server must preserve concurrent provider result updates and must not
resume a process whose stop is uncertain. Focused tests cover these
boundaries. This change has no database migration.

context window are not exposed in this session. Used reasoning,

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 22cea6b2e6 fix: bound sandbox bridge waits and flag silent runs sooner (#14979)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Sandbox agents exchange input and output through bridge control
commands.
> - A provider can stop responding to a command even when it receives a
timeout.
> - These small commands can inherit a four-hour agent lifetime and
block input or teardown.
> - The board also calls a silent run healthy for the first hour.
> - This pull request bounds bridge control waits and surfaces silence
sooner.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A sandbox run can remain active when a bridge control command never
returns. The shared helper passes a timeout to the provider but does not
enforce it on the host. It also accepts the agent's hours-long timeout.
Output silence remains `ok` for an hour and becomes `critical` only
after four hours.

**Expected behavior**

Bound short bridge operations even if the provider never settles. Report
failed input delivery through the existing shutdown path. Warn after
five silent minutes and escalate after fifteen. Keep normal agent
command limits and require verified termination before releasing
execution ownership.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Use a sandbox runner whose bridge read or input-upload promise never
settles.
2. Set its configured timeout to four hours.
3. Observe that the old queue client never returns or rejects.
4. Inspect a running task with 35 minutes of output silence. The old
summary still reports `ok`.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Base commit `d6d88b9de2`.

**Deployment mode**

Self-hosted server with sandbox execution.

**Agent adapter(s) involved**

Shared command-managed sandbox bridge, including Codex ACP sessions. The
informational silence thresholds apply to active runs across adapters.

Related: #14889 recovers stalled Daytona output streams; #14485 retries
explicit gateway failures during input delivery. This change bounds
short control operations whose provider promises never settle. It does
not add tool replay or automatic cancellation for output silence. #6297
proposes configurable per-agent silence thresholds; this patch only
changes the existing defaults.

## What Changed

- Enforce at most 30 seconds per bridge control shell command on the
host and provider, including callback startup and shutdown,
process-session launch, and payload setup. Preserve shorter configured
deadlines and launch environments.
- Keep the long-lived agent command outside this deadline. Use a fixed
timeout diagnostic without command payloads.
- Surface suspicious output silence after five minutes and critical
silence after fifteen minutes.
- Decouple the shared-workspace holder cutoff from warning thresholds
and preserve its existing one-hour value.
- Add regressions for hung reads, a late upload response, failed input
delivery, exact warning boundaries, and fresh output clearing warnings.
- Update the adapter guide and execution contract.

## Verification

- The three new queue-client regressions fail on the unchanged base and
pass with this patch.
- Final callback bridge and sandbox session suites: 214 passed. These
cover hung reads, writes, startup, shutdown, process-session launch,
payload setup, and the separate long-running agent limit.
- Stdin ordering and shutdown suite: 56 passed after the lifecycle
change.
- Daytona and watchdog coverage passed in the earlier focused runs.
Across the focused suites, 602 distinct tests pass.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`: passed. Server and adapter
typecheck/build also passed after their respective follow-up changes.
- `pnpm test:run`: attempted and stopped after known local failures.
Four chat/email cases used an external ancestor skill path, three
skill-cache cases failed on macOS, and one wakeup case timed out. The
wakeup case passes alone (1 passed, 27 skipped). This run spanned the
workspace-cutoff follow-up and also failed its new holder case; a fresh
final-head workspace suite passes all 19 tests. The interrupted run is
not a full local-suite pass or final-head verification.
- A filesystem queue-drain test failed once during the lifecycle rerun
and passed on the complete two-suite rerun. It uses the filesystem
client, outside the changed command-runner path.
- Complete CI on `ff2212c235`: 53 successful checks and two expected
skips, including the full test suite and canary packaging dry run. No
failed or pending checks.
- Greptile reviewed `ff2212c235` at 5/5. All review findings are
addressed, no threads remain unresolved, and the branch has no merge
conflicts with `master`.
- `git diff --check` and a scan of added text for secrets and private
identifiers passed.

## Risks

- A bridge control operation that needs more than 30 seconds now fails,
even if the caller selected a longer run lifetime. Agent commands retain
their own limits.
- Timing out a provider promise does not cancel the remote operation or
prove it stopped. Existing execution settlement still owns termination
verification. No uncertain tool action is replayed.
- Quiet healthy runs display warnings sooner. Existing snooze, continue,
and false-positive dismissal controls still apply. Silence alone does
not cancel a run, create review work, or change assignments.
- No schema or API shape change.

DottaandPaperclip 7a52dcdc74 fix: repair MCP validation and cancelled execution recovery (#14951)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The tool gateway gives agents access to connected services. Recovery
controls what happens when a run stops.
> - Generated tool names can exceed the provider limit after the MCP
client adds its prefix.
> - The same invalid definition can fail each automatic retry. A
cancelled run can also hold saved messages without showing its cause.
> - This pull request bounds tool names, stops configuration retries,
and retains cancellation evidence.
> - It shows the stopped run and admits saved input only after the
existing safety checks pass.
> - The benefit is a clear recovery path that preserves operator Stop
and prevents duplicate message delivery.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A long connected MCP tool name makes the provider reject the entire
request. Automatic recovery repeats the invalid request. Separately,
unexpected legacy cancellations can leave saved input behind a recovery
hold. The notice does not identify the stopped run or its cause.

**Expected behavior**

Complete MCP names fit the provider limit. Tool-definition errors
require configuration repair. Cancelled runs retain their source and
reason. The recovery notice shows the cause and saved-message count.
Verified unexpected cancellations can start a fresh turn through the
existing admission checks.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Assign an App gallery connection with a long application key and tool
name to a Claude agent.
2. Start a run. The provider rejects a name over 128 characters,
including its MCP prefix.
3. For cancellation recovery, stop a legacy provider turn without an
operator Stop request and send a user message while the recovery hold is
active.
4. Inspect the recovery notice and the deferred message queue.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Rebased onto master at `cf8ad63c806685bfd7c48e3ed4a919d61a7c55f1`.

**Deployment mode**

Hosted or self-hosted server with legacy Claude or Codex execution.

Related public work:

- Refs #14017. That PR caps name segments. This PR preserves existing
short names and uses stable hash aliases for long complete names. It
also covers classification and recovery.
- Refs #4510. That PR adds a cancellation-source column. This PR records
bounded evidence in the existing run result, without a migration.
- Refs #12552 and #4506. Those PRs suppress recovery after operator
cancellation. This PR preserves operator intent and uses the existing
continuation gates.

## What Changed

- Bound gateway names with the full provider prefix in the 128-character
budget. Retain the original upstream tool name for dispatch and
permissions.
- Classify invalid tool definitions as configuration failures before
diagnostic redaction. Stop automatic retries and continuation attempts
for that error code.
- Persist cancellation source, expectedness, initiator, reason, and
time. Preserve recorded Stop intent when adapter results arrive. Report
unexpected started cancellations with closed diagnostic labels.
- Show the run cause, saved-message count, and Inspect run link. Offer
Continue for eligible unexpected cancellations. Require verified
provider stop, empty tool inventory, ownership, and the existing pause,
budget, approval, and dependency gates. Use the existing queue for
single delivery.
- Add regression coverage and update the execution, MCP gateway, and
run-log documentation.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` passed.
- Ran `pnpm test:run` and completed its workspace and serialized groups.
Initial resource and timing failures passed on isolated reruns. All 149
serialized route suites passed.
- Reran the changed server, adapter, and UI suites after the rebase.
Coverage includes long-name upstream dispatch, configuration retry
suppression, cancellation evidence retention, privacy labels, oversized
run projection, and concurrent saved-message delivery.
- `pnpm test:e2e tests/e2e/legacy-failure-continuation.spec.ts` passed
all six browser scenarios. The recovery notice shows the run cause and
inspection link, and each recovery entry point reaches one new response.
- Added database-backed checks for active, removed, paused, unavailable,
and disabled chat connections. The final continuation and
recovery-notice suites passed 167 tests. Externally bound chats hide
board Continue and show a usable next action.
- All 55 GitHub checks passed on
`42afbf1371dcaeb72646e3d8f65c19ff7cddf8de`. Two unrelated Storybook jobs
were skipped by their normal conditions. Greptile reviewed that commit
at 5/5 with no findings and no open review threads.

## Risks

- Long tool names change to aliases. Existing short names stay
compatible. The original connection and upstream name remain the
dispatch authority.
- Invalid tool definitions no longer get automatic retries. An operator
must repair the configuration before a new attempt.
- Continuation changes apply only to positively identified unexpected
legacy cancellations with complete empty tool inventory. Operator Stop,
unknown historical cancellations, outstanding tools, and unverified
provider termination keep their holds.
- No database migration. The added projection fields are optional.
Cancellation reason and initiator IDs remain local run evidence; Sentry
receives only closed source and initiator-type labels and expectedness.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository editing, shell
execution, and GitHub tool use. The runtime does not expose the exact
model variant or context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip 8ec4b84e1c fix(chat): resume messages after failed runs without duplicate delivery (#14857)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A user can send a new message after a native run fails.
> - The server checks that the old execution has stopped before it
starts a fresh turn.
> - A failed run can retain a result accepted before checkpoint or
cleanup failed.
> - The continuation gate treated that saved result as active recovery
and held the new message forever.
> - This pull request removes that false liveness signal while retaining
controller, process, environment, and authorization checks.
> - Live staging then exposed a second defect: chat admission created a
successor without consuming the original deferred receipt, so completion
delivered the message again.
> - Consume that exact receipt atomically with admission, while
preserving separate turns for later chat messages.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A new user message stayed in the queue with `controller_settling` after
the previous run had reached `terminal_failure`. The old coordinator had
no lease owner but still had a `resultId`. Its remote environment had a
verified stop receipt.

**Expected behavior**

Start one fresh turn after execution has stopped and normal admission
checks pass. Preserve the failed run and its accepted result as history.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Accept a native result, then fail checkpoint or cleanup and exhaust
recovery.
2. Retain the result ID on the terminal failure record and stop the
execution environment.
3. Send a new user message. Before this fix, it waits forever for the
finished controller.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced in a database-backed regression test on `26900655b`.

**Deployment mode**

Server with a native runner and remote sandbox. Local process stop
checks also apply.

Related: https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/14775. Searched
existing PRs for retained-result continuation fixes; no duplicate found.

## What Changed

- Remove the retained-result veto for terminal failures.
- Keep controller ownership, successor, process, environment cleanup,
pending decision, and ordinary admission checks.
- Add regressions for retained results, active execution, missing stop
evidence, and delayed remote cleanup.
- Atomically consume the resumed receipt in agent chat, even though chat
does not coalesce other queued messages.
- Reproduce completion-time duplicate promotion, race cleanup against
periodic recovery, and prove a subsequent chat message keeps its own
turn.
- Document that a saved result does not make a terminal failure active.
- Keep exhausted workspace export on its separate repair path, tested
through the production finalizer.

## Verification

- Red: retained-result admission failed with `controller_settling`
before the original fix. The new chat-specific regression then
reproduced duplicate promotion when the first reply finished.
- Green: 406 tests across native continuation, workspace-export
recovery, and the wake-queue module passed on `cbc531cc0`.
- The chat regressions exercise real Postgres transactions, simultaneous
recovery callbacks, successful completion, the production queue-drain
use case, and repeated drain attempts. A distinct follow-up remains a
separate turn.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed on `cbc531cc0`.
- The earlier full local test run encountered a timeout and follow-on
failure in unchanged AI connection-adoption tests; all 50 tests passed
on isolated rerun. That local run was stopped after the full CI test
matrix passed on the earlier head.
- All 54 CI checks passed on `cbc531cc0` (2 skipped), including the full
test matrix and browser shards. One unchanged interaction-route test
returned HTTP 500 on its first CI attempt; its full 84-test file passed
locally, and the failed shard passed on one targeted rerun.
- Greptile reviewed `cbc531cc0`: 5/5, no unresolved findings.
- Live staging first verified that the original saved message resumes
and receives a successful response; that test exposed the duplicate now
covered above.
- Deployed exact commit `cbc531cc0410e1ef6e8811c6c5c014c3528351ed` to
the affected staging workspace; deployment verification, health,
authentication, and startup recovery passed.
- Submitted a fresh message through the browser. The agent replied in 39
seconds; server records show exactly one successful run, native phase
`committed`, no error, and an empty queue. A later check more than a
minute after completion found no duplicate run.

## Risks

The change affects admission after native execution failure and
consumption of a resumed deferred receipt. A fresh turn must never
overlap the prior execution, and consuming one chat receipt must not
absorb later messages. Tests retain the controller, process, and
remote-stop guards. This change does not migrate data, apply an old
result, or reset the old retry budget.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex (GPT-6). The exact runtime model identifier and context
window are not exposed in this session. Used reasoning, repository
inspection, code execution, database-backed tests, and browser
inspection.

DottaandPaperclip dd7fc1f90a fix: raise the native journal read limit to 256 MiB (#14711)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native sessions persist control-plane state so they can resume
safely.
> - The state includes committed provider history needed for recovery.
> - The server, runnerd recovery, and durable control plane validate
this state before trusting its identity.
> - Their differing 64 MiB and 192 MiB limits can reject a valid journal
before recovery.
> - This pull request aligns all three local state limits at 256 MiB.
> - Larger files remain bounded, while recovery can read larger valid
histories.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13882
Refs #14312

## What Changed

- Raise the server and runnerd recovery limits from 64 MiB to 256 MiB,
and align the durable control-plane limit from 192 MiB to 256 MiB.
- Add coverage for a valid history above 64 MiB and rejection above 256
MiB.

## Verification

- Matching server recovery passed with more than 64 MiB of actual
committed event payloads (128 events with 512 KiB deltas).
- The real runnerd exact-authority resume regression with the test Codex
provider passed with 193 MiB of valid JSON whitespace appended. It
crosses the former 192 MiB core limit and confirms the same provider
identity. This exercises the runner process and durable control plane
with a simulated provider, not a live OpenAI API call. This test used
approximately 1.15 GiB peak RSS.
- The actual runnerd reader accepted valid 256 MiB JSON and rejected
valid 256 MiB + 1 byte. The reader call took 231 ms; the fresh process
peaked at 1,244 MiB RSS.
- Server tests reject mismatched identity above 64 MiB and files above
256 MiB.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and `git diff --check` passed.
- Full local `pnpm test:run`: 13,730 passed, 575 skipped, 7 failed
across 6 files. All failures were embedded PostgreSQL startup errors
after five attempts. They affected agent hiring, instruction revisions,
environment images, reviewed chat bindings, issue monitoring, and legacy
continuation authority. The focused journal tests passed; the latest
pushed head passed all ordinary CI checks. Superagent is the only
blocking check.

## Risks

- **Open review concern:** Greptile is 5/5, but Superagent is
`ACTION_REQUIRED` with two P2 findings on the server and runnerd
readers. Both flag the increased synchronous parsing and memory cost.
This PR keeps the requested fixed-limit change small. It does not add a
worker parser or a process-wide memory budget. This resource tradeoff
needs review before merge.

- Large state parsing is synchronous and can consume several times the
file size in memory.
- Remote checkpoint archive and expanded-size limits remain 64 MiB, so
this change alone does not make larger remote checkpoint transfers
portable.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, GPT-6, with delegated assistance from `gpt-6-luna` at
high reasoning effort; tool use and code execution. The GPT-6 context
window is not exposed in this task runtime.

DottaandPaperclip 1778075155 fix(server): continue unfinished tasks after status replies (#14626)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native runs report their task outcome through a structured finish
result.
> - A Board comment can permit a passive wait for the next response.
> - That exception accepted reports that also admitted blocking
unfinished work.
> - The task then stayed In Progress without a runner, and recovery
treated the wait as healthy.
> - This pull request rejects that contradiction and uses the existing
bounded continuation path.
> - Real wait conditions and protection against obsolete requests remain
in force.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

An agent answered a status inquiry with `yielded` and `response_wake`.
The same result listed blocking remaining work. The server accepted an
indefinite wait without a question, approval, dependency, or pause. No
further run was queued.

**Expected behavior**

Unfinished ordinary tasks must continue or have a recorded reason to
wait. A status reply alone must not suspend the work.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Add a Board status inquiry to an unfinished assigned task.
2. Submit a successful native result with `yielded`, `response_wake`,
and `remainingWork[].blocksCompletion: true`.
3. Leave the task without any real wait condition.
4. Observe that the old policy preserves In Progress with no
continuation and suppresses recovery.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced in the native status policy at `da887ea3e`. The branch is
based on current master.

**Deployment mode**

Authenticated server with the native Paperclip Runner.

Related work: Refs #13338 (native response waits and recovery). Refs
#12071 (separate legacy recovery and retry-state work). This change
fixes the native unfinished-response-wait exception.

## What Changed

- Reject contradictory finish reports while the provider can still
correct them.
- Route accepted unfinished response waits through the existing
one-follow-up continuation budget. Repeated incomplete results create a
visible recovery action.
- Preserve questions, approvals, dependencies, pauses, conversation
lifecycles, and superseded Board requests.
- Recheck the current Board source in the decision transaction before
queuing repair.
- Let normal recovery reconsider old committed waits that report
blocking work and still have a current source.
- Add policy and database regression tests. Document the rule.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/services/native-runtime/status-arbiter.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts
--no-file-parallelism`: 346 tests passed, no skips.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed.
- `pnpm build`: passed.
- `git diff --check origin/master...HEAD`: passed.
- Final head `8f0824d9bb4d631f2347f8afffe5fff6d574cb69`: all CI checks
green (54 passed, 2 intentionally skipped), including all general tests,
serialized server suites, runner tests, eight E2E shards, and the canary
dry run.
- Greptile: 5/5 on the final head, with no unresolved review threads.
- The broad local `pnpm test:run` encountered an unrelated timing
failure in `workspace-runtime.test.ts` (waiting for managed process-tree
listeners). That test passed on an isolated rerun. The duplicate broad
run was stopped; the complete CI suite passed on the final commit.
- The transaction-race regression reproduced an obsolete continuation
before the fix. All 12 source-change cases now pass, covering passive
waits, corrective continuations, and exhausted-repair decisions.

## Risks

- Agents that previously parked unfinished ordinary tasks must now
continue or record an actual wait condition.
- Old contradictory waits become eligible for normal recovery. Existing
ownership, budget, pause, and supersession checks still apply.
- The rule uses the structured blocking-work flag. It does not infer
omitted work from prose.
- No schema, dependency, or UI change.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository inspection, code
editing, and test execution. The session does not expose a more specific
deployment identifier or context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip 2de43fc909 fix(issues): keep agent mentions as context and defer personal app authorization (#14577)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Each task has one assignee. Explicit assignment and review requests
select who should act.
> - An agent mention started another agent on a task it did not own.
Native attachment staging then rejected that run.
> - Allowing that run through startup could also let two agents work on
the same task.
> - Mentions should identify relevant context. They should not start
work or forward comments to other tasks.
> - A personal app installed on a shared agent must also wait until tool
use to resolve the current user's grant.
> - This pull request removes mention dispatch and keeps missing
personal app credentials from blocking startup.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A native agent mentioned on another agent's task failed with
`paperclip_runner_attachment_staging_not_authorized`. The source task
could already be complete. A nearby optional-app warning was a separate
problem: personal app tools were excluded when their shared health state
required attention.

**Expected behavior**

An agent mention is context only. It does not wake the agent, take
ownership, or copy a comment onto another task. Normal feedback still
reaches the assignee. Assignment and explicit review requests still
dispatch work. An unavailable personal app does not block startup or
produce a startup warning. Tool use requests the current user's
authorization and never uses another user's grant.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Assign a task to agent A. Post a comment that mentions agent B,
including a comment that closes A's task or references B's child task.
2. Confirm the comment retains its agent link and B receives no run or
deferred wake. A can still receive normal feedback.
3. Install an active personal MCP connection on B. Give only Alice a
grant and leave shared health at `error`.
4. Explicitly assign work to B for another user. Confirm it can finish
without using the app.
5. Ask B to use the app. Confirm its tool call shows an inline
connection request for the current user.

Related work: Refs #11144. This change uses the existing execution-time
personal grant resolution.

## What Changed

- Remove mention dispatch from standalone comments and issue updates.
Remove implicit forwarding of parent comments to a mentioned worker's
child task.
- Ignore new requests with the legacy mention wake reason before
creating a run or deferred request. Preserve already accepted queue
entries, which can combine assignments and feedback with a later
mention.
- Remove the native mention admission, staging, and finalization
exceptions from this PR. Native task ownership checks remain intact.
- Keep active, installed personal app tools available despite shared
health errors. Remove optional-app startup warnings. Tool execution
retains the current user's grant and policy checks.
- Update agent instructions and product/API docs. Refresh generated
capability source anchors.

## Verification

- Red: comment-route regressions reproduced extra agent wakes and child
comment forwarding. A separate regression proved that cancelling by the
last coalesced reason could drop an accepted assignment.
- Green: the targeted route, wake queue, heartbeat, workspace,
responsible-user, MCP discovery, and HTTP gateway suites passed. The
final queue and heartbeat rerun passed 104 tests, the restored queue
adapter passed 56, and both comment-route suites passed 135. These
include accepted assignment preservation, rejection of new mention
requests, and normal assignee feedback.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed locally. The full local
`pnpm test:run` attempt was interrupted for review/CI fixes, so it is
not claimed as a completed local pass. It exposed a cleanup timing race
in the concurrent-mention assertion, now fixed and verified across 10
repetitions. CI also exposed an obsolete test waiting for the removed
mention lookup; it was reproduced and fixed, then both comment suites
passed. Final full-suite verification is through CI.
- Final head `bd9ea4cb05a8f081c54e017760a8999f9ea6ef44`: 54 checks
passed, 2 Storybook checks intentionally skipped; no pending or failing
checks. Full CI includes general and serialized suites, all 8 browser
shards, runner verification, typecheck, build, and canary dry run.
Greptile is 5/5 on this exact commit, with no unresolved findings.
- One unchanged Cursor adapter test hit its 10-second CI timeout. All 5
tests in that file passed locally; one retry of its CI shard passed all
674 tests (3 skipped). The aggregate verification gate then passed. No
code or timeout was changed for that retry.
- Live browser check: inserted a structured mention with the picker on a
human-owned task. The saved link remained visible. Database checks found
zero new runs and zero wake requests.
- Live Codex runner check: explicitly assigned that task with the
unavailable personal app attached. The run succeeded and committed
completion without using the app or creating a connection card.
- Live browser follow-up: asked the assignee to call PostHog and
mentioned another enabled agent as context. Only the assignee ran. It
succeeded and displayed the existing inline connection card. Only
Alice's grant existed; the run belonged to a different user.
- The HTTP regression covers tool discovery with no provider calls or
connection cards, first use returning the current user's authorization
request, and successful retry after that user's grant exists.
- App checks use an isolated local fixture and a fake MCP provider. They
do not use production app credentials.

## Risks

- Intentional behavior change: workflows that used mentions to wake
agents must use assignment, a bounded child task, or an explicit review
request.
- Already accepted queue entries retain their prior rules. An old entry
can combine assignment or feedback with a later mention; its last reason
cannot safely identify mention-only work. New mention requests create no
run or deferred wake.
- Personal apps with a shared health error remain discoverable. Actual
tool use still requires the responsible user's grant and existing policy
gates.
- No database migration or public API schema change.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and browser testing. The exact serving model ID and
context-window size are not exposed in this session.
- Live native-run verification used `gpt-6-astra` through the Codex
provider.

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Task descriptions, comments, continuation data, skills, and
execution rules enter several agent adapters.
> - The same source can be rendered by more than one automatic input
carrier.
> - Failed resumes can also rebuild input from stale or compact context.
> - This pull request gives each Paperclip-owned source one delivery
owner and preserves the required transport boundaries.
> - It adds deterministic adapter, interaction, runner, and browser
tests for these boundaries.
> - The benefit is more predictable context delivery with explicit
evidence for later live qualification.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #13144 removes a duplicate environment payload and bounds wake
lists. Related: #11360 addresses Hermes resume behavior. This pull
request preserves compatible active-session formats while repairing
context ownership and stale question creation.

**What happened?**

Task descriptions and comments could enter more than one automatic
context block. Native transports could wrap a complete model input in a
second task envelope. Some legacy and gateway adapters could omit the
owned assignment on ordinary tasks or rebuild a failed resume with stale
compact context. A continuation could also request a question after
newer human comments had arrived.

**Expected behavior**

Each task or comment source has one automatic model-facing owner.
Distinct comment IDs and repeated wording remain distinct. Fresh
fallback attempts rebuild the required full context. A question request
is rejected when newer queued human direction makes it stale. Harness
access policy remains owned by execution configuration.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Build a task with a description and current comments.
2. Capture the actual adapter or runner input.
3. Compare source ownership and task-envelope nesting.
4. Queue a human comment before a continuation requests a question.
5. Trigger a failed resume and inspect the fresh retry input.
6. Run the focused adapter, interaction, runner, and browser checks.

## What Changed

- Add shared prompt-section selection at the provider-attempt boundary.
- Deliver owned assignment context through native, legacy CLI, ACP,
gateway, cloud, Pi, Kimi, Grok, Gemini, OpenCode, Cursor, OpenClaw, and
Hermes paths.
- Rebuild full or compact context after resume recovery changes the
attempt. Add native and Claude ACP tests of actual recovery requests.
- Preserve custom templates, loaded instruction files, execution
policies, and older active-session formats.
- Record continuation source metadata and reject stale question creation
under the issue-row lock.
- Add explicit Product E2E context-integrity profiles, prerequisite
gates, credential-isolation checks, and report fixtures.
- Bypass service-worker forwarding for same-origin Vite development
modules. A real Chromium test fails with resource exhaustion before the
repair and passes after it. Production asset caching keeps its existing
policy.
- Add browser diagnostics and service-worker module-loading regressions.
- Add an explicit zero-retry eval option. The default retry behavior
remains unchanged. Each campaign records its effective policy.
- Remove the model-facing working-directory sentence from four prompt
builders. Existing workspace, sandbox, permission, and custom-template
configuration remains unchanged.
- Align the everyday workflow assertion with the current 47-entry
catalog.

Compared with current upstream master, the branch carries the
context-ownership implementation and its tests, the explicit
context-integrity catalog and evidence harness, and the focused browser
regression checks.

## Verification

**Merge assessment:** focused regression evidence supports merge. This
is not full completion of the original broad qualification matrix. The
maintainer has authorized merge after fresh verification of the master
integration.

- Current head: `bbd52f82114eabf09bc7b1a7e97d54a5b43bbc00`. This
integrates current master `2f585ef26a1814fa209715242d1ca791b63e4c4e`.
All 14 conflicts are resolved. Cancellation checks, workspace
finalization, native Grok support, and both sets of tests are retained.
- Current-head Greptile: **5/5**, with no blocking findings. The review
names this exact commit. All **59 reported checks are terminal: 55
successful, 4 skipped, zero pending or failing**. This includes the full
root general and serialized suites, separate runner checks, typecheck,
build, canary, browser E2E, Docker, and security checks. The successful
legacy security status is included in that total.
- After integration: workspace typecheck and full build passed. Separate
runner checks passed: **2,160 TypeScript tests (10 skipped), 582 Rust
tests, and 39 preparation checks**. Other passing checks include 621
Product E2E harness units, 376 focused shared/adapter tests, 160
real-database/API tests, 86 Hermes tests, 18 browser-support checks, and
Product E2E typechecking. The complete root suite passed in CI. The
duplicate local monolithic root run was stopped after that CI result; it
is not counted as a completed local pass.
- New native recovery coverage retains full assignment, completion
contract, and explicit skill selection after safe replacement, for old
and prepared input formats. Full native session test file: **136/136
passed**.
- New Claude ACP coverage captures actual fresh, resumed, and
missing-session fallback requests. It verifies one assignment copy,
comment order, identical text under distinct comment IDs, and full
fallback context. Full file: **33/33 passed**. Both affected TypeScript
checks passed.
- Existing deterministic tests cover source revisions, approval and
trust boundaries, completion validation, custom templates, compatible
sessions, standalone driver wrapping, and maintained adapter transport
requests.
- Provider-free browser support: **17/17 passed** after the master
merge. Service-worker unit tests: **33/33 passed**. The module-overload
regression failed before the repair and passed after it in real
Chromium.

### Fresh live comparisons

The new batch ran exactly four Product E2E attempts. **All four passed
on the first attempt; no retries.** Each has six terminal matchers plus
the existing browser lifecycle and invariant checks.

| Exact case ID | Control | Candidate |
|---|---|---|
| `core-compatibility.runner-codex.local.plan-revise-accept` | Passed |
Passed |
|
`local-session-integrity.runner-acpx-claude.local.structured-question-restart-resume`
| Passed | Passed |

The plan case checks a revised canonical plan and revision-bound
approval before completion. The question case restarts the server before
submitting the answer, then verifies the continuation completes.

Control source is `dfa4e1bda8d50a1a01746603251a9128dbe9d0d6`. Candidate
source is `79fcdb5dece501d28064ea9da306603881b46f0c`. They use identical
frozen definitions and provider versions: Codex `0.156.0` with
`gpt-5.6-sol`; ACPX `0.13.1` / Claude ACP `0.73.0` with
`claude-sonnet-5`. The September 24 head added master browser recovery
and test-only changes. The September 28 head also integrates newer
master changes, including cancellation, workspace finalization, and
native Grok. These are frozen-source live results, not exact-head live
runs.

The candidate received one description copy where the control initially
received three. The submitted initial plan envelopes were 7,969 versus
19,097 characters. Question envelopes were 7,592 versus 18,919. These
are structural measurements, not whole-provider token or dollar savings.

### Earlier evidence and failed attempts

- The preceding fresh batch has four effective passing pairs: OpenCode
comment continuation and assigned skill, native Codex comment
continuation, and native Claude comment continuation. It retains **11
attempts: eight passed and three failed**.
- Original failures remain recorded: missing local PostgreSQL library
links before task creation; host-sleep cleanup after task/page checks
passed; and a Claude **control** session-open rejection before a model
turn. Setup was repaired identically on both worktrees. The permitted
unchanged infrastructure retries passed. The underlying Claude provider
startup error was not retained and remains unknown.
- Older R2 retains **17 passes and one failure** across 18 attempts,
including eight both-pass native/legacy Codex/Claude pairs. Its OpenCode
blank-page failure led to the service-worker repair. R2 is historical
evidence: master changed the native fixed prompt and removed duplicate
wake environment data afterward.
- The September 24 CI run initially failed one unrelated preview
readiness test (`ECONNREFUSED` on its local fixture). Its test and
production code match master. Isolated local verification passed **28
tests, 3 skipped**. One unchanged CI retry passed the full shard: **831
passed, 1 skipped**, including all **31 preview-exposure tests**. The
aggregate CI gate passed afterward. The precise startup cause remains
unknown; a port race is a hypothesis, not a proved cause.

### Limits

The original wider profile/workflow matrix, repeated trials, and remote
Daytona qualification are incomplete. These results support a focused
merge recommendation, not statistical equivalence or universal harness
qualification. Some usage receipts are missing in both variants, so no
token or dollar savings are claimed. The $500 ceiling was preserved
using conservative allowances; failed attempts and unknown charges
remain in the ledger.

Reproduce the focused additions with `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/adapters/claude-local/src/server/acp.test.ts` and `pnpm
--filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner exec vitest run
src/native-session-runtime.test.ts`. Full checks use `pnpm -r
typecheck`, `pnpm test:run`, `pnpm build`, and the separate runner
checks. Paid evals require the frozen definitions, profiles, and
credentials; do not use `--all` as a substitute for the selected cases.

## Risks

- Context placement changes can affect model behavior. Deterministic
checks cover the selected paths, but live qualification remains
incomplete.
- The stale-question guard can reject a request when queued human
comments arrived during the run. This is intended.
- New stored inputs and model envelopes retain compatibility readers for
older active sessions.
- Custom templates may intentionally repeat content.
- Removing a model-facing working-directory sentence does not change
filesystem, command, sandbox, or permission configuration.
- The worker bypass applies only to same-origin development module
paths. Cache-policy tests preserve private-response handling and
production asset caching. Mounted HTTP fixture changes remain test-only.
- This PR does not claim measured token savings or statistical
equivalence across every harness.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, exact model gpt-6-astra, with repository tools and code
execution. Bounded supporting work used gpt-5.6-luna and gpt-6-luna. The
serving context-window size is not exposed in this task.

DottaandPaperclip 8751e2de46 fix(ui): distinguish finalization recovery from live observation (#14326)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The task board shows which recovery actions are active.
> - A native run can stop while a person must repair its workspace.
> - The board previously called that state “Recovery in progress.”
> - The label implied that work would continue without operator action.
> - This pull request derives the label from the recovery owner and live
continuation.
> - Operators can distinguish scheduled recovery from a repair that
needs attention.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
A blocked task showed “Recovery in progress” after native finalization
stopped and no automatic continuation remained.

**Expected behavior**
Show “Recovery needed” for an idle board repair or when no live recovery
path exists. Show “Recovery in progress” while the recorded continuation
can run, including an explicitly admitted export whose exact callback is
executing even if the old recovery action remains board-owned.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Complete a native run whose workspace export cannot be recovered
automatically.
2. Inspect the task recovery action and badge.
3. Compare the board-owned action with the old “Recovery in progress”
label.

Related work: #14314 serializes native workspace finalization and fences
stale recovery outcomes. This change reports the recovery action that
currently owns the task.

## What Changed

- Show “Recovery needed” for board-owned active-run recovery unless the
exact native export callback is positively verified as executing.
- Require the native continuation run and a live or future continuation
before showing progress.
- Project native activity from the exact company, source issue, and run.
Include active workspace export while the original heartbeat remains
failed.
- Require an executing callback before using a running export row as
evidence. Preserve activity for long exports and clear it when the
callback joins.
- Give native resume its own card explanation. Preserve ordinary
watchdog observation behavior.
- Remove the redundant ownership sentence from all six recovery-card
explanations that used it.
- Document the labels and add regression cases for stopped, scheduled,
and active recovery.

## Verification

- Copy-only follow-up (`c68aef04c`): all 167 focused recovery UI tests
and token gates pass. No UI occurrence of the removed sentence remains.
`pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and current-head CI pass (54
successful checks, two optional Storybook checks skipped). Greptile is
5/5 with no open review threads. The duplicate local `pnpm test:run` was
stopped after the full CI suite passed; it did not complete locally.
- Original regressions: seven failures before the change, then 52
focused cases pass.
- Review regressions: seven UI failures and nine database failures
before the follow-up. All 75 database/API recovery tests, 167 UI tests,
and 18 workspace lifecycle/finalizer tests pass. A further three RED
cases cover explicit board retry activity; one RED case rejects orphaned
running export rows after controller loss. Wrong company, issue, run,
service, phase, and completed-operation cases remain inactive.
- Final recursive typecheck, production build, token gates, and complete
local suite coverage pass. Embedded PostgreSQL startup/socket failures
passed in isolated retries with the canonical test environment; no
expected behavior was weakened. The recovery regression added during the
earlier full run passed in its final complete 75-case file.
- Before the copy-only follow-up, all 56 CI checks passed on
`c2f84cd89c905cda85c53aaf5bb83b7250900fe6`; Greptile is 5/5 with no
unresolved review threads. The final native-activity staging repeat
passed on integrated source `2bedd0f23bf4698b1f8b818f6796900647030427`.
- Verified on a separate staging instance: a real failed Daytona
workspace export retains its board-owned repair action and displays
“Recovery needed” in the task list. The repair card remains actionable
without starting another provider turn.

- Real staged export-only repair: the actual task list showed “Recovery
in progress” while the original run had a positively identified running
export operation, then Done after exact copyback of all 20,000
nonce-bound files. The accepted result and full provider
session/turn/terminal envelopes remained unchanged. All 17 independent
final checks passed; the browser downloaded the exact 19-byte result.
The separate fixture was cleaned up with independent provider-absence
verification. A control transport process restarted during repair; it
did not submit another provider turn.

- Final deployed-source repeat on
`d884e1ab046cc76004e35e6091e9e6e2c918c9eb`: explicit per-turn ephemeral
Daytona allocation, actual browser export repair, and a saved full
activity projection referencing the exact executing export operation
with no scheduled retry. The task list showed recovery in progress, then
Done; all 21 final checks passed, including 20,000 exact host files,
unchanged provider provenance, and provider deletion only after
committed copyback. The downloaded 19-byte result matched independently.
This integrates #14334; no source change was required here.

## Risks

- The label depends on the persisted recovery action. A separate runtime
defect can still stop work; this change makes that condition visible.
- Future recovery kinds must supply a valid continuation path before
they can display progress.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with code execution, browser testing, and
subagent tool use. The runtime does not expose an exact serving model
variant or context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip 640dee1802 fix(runner): acquire reusable leases when switching to warm sessions (#14187)
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip coordinates agent work across task turns.
> - Warm runners need reusable sandbox leases.
> - Lease acquisition read only the environment reuse setting.
> - Startup then read the agent's new warm setting and rejected the
ephemeral lease.
> - This fix requests reuse before acquisition, with provider checks
intact.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What happened?**
Switching an existing native runner task from per-turn to warm fails
with `runner_warm_environment_requires_reusable_lease`. Environment
`reuseLease` defaults to false. Acquisition therefore creates an
ephemeral lease, and capability narrowing correctly denies reuse.

**Expected behavior**
Changing lifecycle between turns requests a compatible lease without
replacing the task workspace or changing the shared environment.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a native runner task with inherited lifecycle and environment
reuse disabled.
2. Change the agent from per-turn to warm.
3. Continue the task on a reusable-capable sandbox provider.

**Paperclip version or commit**
Reproduced on `a6c4e7a`. Related: #12904 established warm workspace
continuity; this fixes the earlier lease-selection mismatch.

## What Changed
- Pass agent settings into acquisition and derive a run-scoped reuse
request.
- Respect explicit environment lifecycle overrides; leave other adapters
unchanged.
- Keep provider capability, ownership, cleanup and restore gates intact.
- Add orchestration and database-backed transition tests; document the
contract.

## Verification
- Red: three new assertions failed before the fix.
- Green: 156 tests pass in environment-run-orchestrator,
environment-runtime, native-sandbox-lifecycle, and
environment-execution-target-capabilities.
- Database-backed regression proves ephemeral → reusable → resumed
lease, same workspace, and unchanged stored environment. Provider RPCs
are mocked, not live Daytona.
- `git diff --check` passes.
- Latest-head CI passes typecheck, build, tests, runner checks, E2E, and
canary dry run. Greptile: 5/5; no open threads.
- Recovery uses the persisted lifecycle. Direct regression: red before,
six cases green after. CI runs the added Vitest cases.
- Full local checks were unavailable (missing dependencies and earlier
memory limits).

## Risks
Warm mode now requests retained resources despite an environment's
default `reuseLease:false`. Existing idle timeout and cleanup still
apply. Unsupported providers remain denied. No migration, credential
[REDACTED], or shared-environment mutation.

## Model Used
OpenAI Codex agent; reasoning, code editing and test execution. Exact
model ID and context size were not exposed to this run.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip b2e9e82f05 fix: stop remote Grok runs before continuing queued messages (#14100)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The execution service owns each run and saves messages sent while it
runs.
> - Interrupt must stop the current executor before it delivers those
messages.
> - Remote Grok commands did not register the host cancellation control.
> - A cancelled task run could still write Done and prevent queue
recovery.
> - This pull request connects remote cancellation and revokes cancelled
run writes.
> - Saved input can use the existing queue admission rules after
verified cleanup.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Interrupting a queued message marked a remote Grok run cancelled before
its sandbox stopped. The old run could still post a reply and mark the
task Done. Its saved follow-up remained deferred behind execution
recovery.

**Expected behavior**

Stop revokes run write authority and waits for verified termination.
Saved messages remain durable and enter one successor through normal
admission after cleanup.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run a task with `grok_local` in a remote sandbox.
2. Send a follow-up and use Interrupt while the command runs.
3. Let the old command attempt a task status update after cancellation.
4. Observe the task disposition and the saved message queue.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The gap is present in master at `d3e0f0a238`.

**Deployment mode**

Authenticated server with a Daytona sandbox.

Related work: #14028 and #14046 handle bounded continuation. #13291
covers infrastructure interruption and verified remote cleanup. #13332
addresses atomic recovery holds. This change handles direct Grok
operator cancellation and stale task writes.

## What Changed

- Register remote Grok cancellation before preparation. Keep command
ownership until the host confirms sandbox termination.
- Reuse the sandbox cancellation boundary for the direct CLI invocation.
Reject fresh attempts after cancellation and preserve workspace restore
failure evidence.
- Reject writes from cancelled task JWTs and runs with a pending stop.
Preserve diagnostic reads and existing conversation error codes.
- Recheck run authority under a database lock before task updates and
interaction responses commit.
- Preserve authorized handoffs that stop their own run. Only the
server-issued stop receipt for that request permits the final task
update.
- Add tests for hung commands, unverified stops, early cancellation,
copy-back failures, late Done, late interaction responses, authorized
handoffs, exact lease receipts, and one queue successor across
concurrent restart sweeps.
- Document the cancellation and write-authority contract.

## Verification

- Targeted adapter, cancellation-boundary, authentication,
queued-message, interaction-service, and activity-route tests passed.
The expanded run passed 214 tests; one new test had an incomplete
fixture. After correcting the fixture, all 8 selected follow-up cases
passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed on
`179c86caf1bf0d89914a503d46e24af7e4b8c557`.
- `pnpm build`: passed on the same commit.
- `pnpm test:run`: the general-server group completed with 13,521
passed, 99 skipped, and 18 failed tests. It then stopped, so the
remaining local groups did not run. Five Slack, email, and wake-batching
failures passed on focused reruns after correcting the local
environment. The remaining 13 failures reproduce as `EACCES` on rename
in unchanged skill-cache code on macOS. Two custom-image suite setup
hooks also failed to start embedded PostgreSQL after the machine
exhausted shared-memory slots; all 31 tests in that file passed on rerun
after the local resource issue was resolved. CI covers all test groups.
- CI: 53 checks passed and 2 were skipped on the latest commit,
including the aggregate verification gate. The last server shard passed
on its single rerun after a preview-server startup timeout. The affected
file also passed locally with 28 passed and 3 skipped.
- Greptile: 5/5 on the latest commit. Both review threads are resolved.
- No live deployment or staging task mutation has been performed.

## Risks

- Stopping the sandbox can prevent file copy-back. The result preserves
workspace restore failure evidence; termination does not imply restored
files.
- If provider termination fails, the adapter keeps ownership of its
outstanding command and does not acknowledge Stop.
- The write restriction now applies to ordinary cancelled tasks. Reads
remain allowed. Task and interaction checks add a shared run-row lock to
agent mutations. An exact server-issued receipt permits the task request
that stopped its own run to complete its handoff.
- Existing terminal tasks are not reopened automatically. An operator
must correct a historical late Done before its saved queue can continue.
- No schema migration or UI change.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository inspection, code
execution, and test tools. The precise backend revision and
context-window size are not exposed in this session.
