DottaandPaperclip 505e1a5582 feat(cases): add persistent workflows with same-task agent handoffs (#16959)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - An agent workflow needs persistent facts and a safe way to transfer
work.
> - Creating a task for each phase splits the objective, discussion,
workspace, and review policy.
> - A case can retain the facts while one primary task moves between
agents.
> - Transfers must survive process failure and preserve private access,
budgets, and completion gates.
> - This pull request adds durable case handoffs, native case tools, and
read-only case pages.
> - Prompts describe the workflow. Existing task controls decide when
work can run and finish.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

Prompt-driven agent teams need a persistent record that can move through
triage, implementation, verification, and correction. Ordinary
reassignment does not provide a durable instruction, safe release
barrier, or recoverable delivery receipt for an agent handing off its
own running task.

**Proposed solution**

Extend standalone cases with one primary task, a descriptive phase,
retained access sources, and a handoff ledger. Apply assignments after
source execution and workspace settlement. Deliver each transfer through
the existing durable wake queue. Provide `create_case`, `read_case`,
`update_case`, and `handoff_case` in the native runner. Creation
requires kickoff and explicit workflow text. An explicit handoff to
`done` closes the case when normal task completion is accepted.

**Alternatives considered**

Do not add a workflow engine, filesystem queue, configured state graph,
or one task per phase. The workflow document combines transition prose
with an optional Mermaid `stateDiagram-v2` map. The server does not
execute the diagram. The Pipelines experiment removed on master stays
removed.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends Agent Reviews and Approvals, Enforced Outcomes, Bounded Run
Recovery, and Activity Log attribution. Existing approval, review,
budget, privacy, workspace, and responsible-user rules remain
authoritative.

Related work: [ordinary handoff wake
recovery](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/15019). This
feature adds a separate persisted case-handoff receipt and release
barrier.

## What Changed

- Add case routing fields, retained access sources, durable handoff
history, delivery leases, and replay-safe migrations.
- Keep the same primary task across agent phases. Preserve each
returning agent's own session and the task's workspace.
- Fence outgoing mutations, wait for provider and workspace release, and
recover delivery without duplicate task comments or runs. Recheck
current assignment permissions as the original caller before applying a
delayed transfer. Scope a run Stop to that run’s own handoff intents, so
repeated old Stop requests preserve newer work. Cancelling terminal
intent without a source run also requires fenced current task ownership,
including native retries and preparation with an old checkout. For Cloud
callers, revalidate current stack membership with an uncached Cloud RPC
and derive owner elevation from the current managed setting.
- Keep case reads, documents, assets, Audit, and live events inside
retained task/project permissions.
- Add native case creation/read/update/handoff tools. Store required
workflow text and initial documents on the first task. Page oversized
case facts and referenced document bodies through the dedicated tool
with bounded UTF-8 JSON, current routing versions, snapshot conflicts,
and current source authorization on every page.
- Add read-only case lists and detail pages, task-style list controls,
compact dotted field tables, linked handoff tasks, and case filters in
Audit.
- Add native/legacy integration tests, migration/restart tests, browser
coverage, and bounded live receipt fixtures. Extend the trusted sandbox
condition to cover the new subscription fixture profile.
- Hide obsolete paused-agent warnings on completed or cancelled task
threads.
- Synchronize the company-switch settings test with React effects after
a CI failure. Preserve its security assertions and production remount
behavior.

## Verification

The branch directly includes master `9ef434fe79`. The required `ci /
verify` and `ci / e2e` gates pass on head `765fccd67c`. [Current-head
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39464348614)
passes typecheck, build, tests, and all eight browser shards. Security
checks pass. [Greptile gives this exact head
5/5](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/16959#issuecomment-6291156549),
with no unresolved review threads. The optional Paperclip Review check
remains queued because its assigned agent is paused. It is not a
required branch check. No check result was overridden.

Local workspace typecheck and build pass after the master merge, along
with database migration checks, token gates, map checks, Storybook
catalog checks, and the Copilot profile identity check. Standard builds
refresh Runner vendor output. Focused checks pass 2,008
API/paging/context tests and 7 strict case protocol tests. The final
commit changes one test fixture only; its ten tests, UI typecheck, and
token gates pass. No production source changed in that commit.

On current head `765fccd67c`, all **194 critical workflow tests**
executed and passed with no skipped tests in those files:

- 38 Stop/ownership tests, including board completion intent, native
retries, stale Stop, and preparation with an old checkout.
- 2 actual legacy process/HTTP handoff tests, including scratch failure,
a closed-stdio child that continues writing, and recovery through a
fresh worker after the process group stops.
- 5 migration tests, including SQL column metadata, preserved null
authority context, and all six prior-numbering receipts.
- 3 process-settlement and 5 scratch tests.
- 88 handoff-service, 18 heartbeat handoff, and 21 native case-tool
integration tests.
- 7 bounded case/document-read projection tests and 7 strict
protocol-contract tests.

The current CI checkout was `fed65d49`, merging `765fccd67c` into master
`9ef434fe79`. Its new document regressions reconstruct exact
Unicode/escaped bodies and revisions through real native authority and
authenticated HTTP with generic API tools disabled. They cover
case-owned, primary-task, and linked-task documents; routing on every
page; stale document snapshots; access loss and unlinking;
unrelated/foreign/private sources; system documents; and quarantined
content. Active-task document tools retain their existing behavior.
These are current-head test results from the first CI attempt; the
browser-only retry did not rerun these suites.

The full `64fdd3403f` CI failed one separate settings test: after a
company switch, it observed an unsettled API-key draft. The production
component and test were unchanged from prior green source. Production
switches remount both keyed settings layers; the test directly reused an
unkeyed view and used a timer tick instead of waiting for React effects.
The final commit replaces that fixture synchronization with React `act`.
The exact secret-clearing assertions and all timeouts remain unchanged.
The original assertion failure remains recorded; no unchanged retry was
used. The narrow unchanged baseline and fixed fixture each pass 10
tests.

The upstream result-paging merge preserves case capture namespaces and
current asset privacy. Its API integration suite executed 39 of 41 tests
successfully, with two skipped; the optional assigned-result PRP
integration test was skipped. Neither skipped suite is counted in the
194 critical tests or as live provider proof.

All 361 upstream migration entries and SQL bodies remain unchanged. Six
case migrations follow master as 0363–0368 with identical SQL hashes.
Official Drizzle generators produced the combined metadata and five
retained snapshots. Generation reports no schema changes, and the
snapshot drift test passes. The earlier `ce361ae5d0` CI passed on
attempt 1, including its then-current 179 critical tests. Fresh review
later identified unusable document references with generic API tools
disabled; the bounded document reads and ten additional authenticated
HTTP tests address that finding.

The full local `pnpm test:run` attempt was cancelled after this Mac
exhausted PostgreSQL semaphore capacity; it is **not** counted as a
pass. Later database attempts also stopped before assertions or skipped,
including one sandbox socket denial. Two original stale-Stop regressions
did reproduce the bug against the old source. A REST serialization
assertion passed after two preserved database-startup failures. No test
timeout was increased. All 194 assertions listed above executed and
passed in current-head CI. The complete 385-file, 3,963-test UI shard
also passed after the fixture repair.

A configured-provider receipt workflow passed 13 backend checks across
triage → implementation → verification → correction → done, using one
task and four work runs. The saved receipt is revision 2 with total 6
USD; case and task both closed. The original canonical attempt remains
failed because its browser assertion confused the terminal destination
with completed-task tooltips. The corrected full browser verifier passed
on the same retained database and original runs, with no additional
provider calls. The last clean-build browser readback is on
`6a86c54a53`; later changes affect recovery, authorization, bounded
reads, and settlement. Accounted work cost is a $1.010574 rate-card
estimate; provider billing and setup-probe usage are unavailable.

Copilot profile 49 passed the unchanged seven-fixture private protocol
pack (46/46 checks, no retries) and the product file-edit canary after
master's completion-replay change. All 60 bound implementation hashes
remain unchanged on the current source. Historical profile-47/48
identities and results remain intact. See the [profile-49 compatibility
record](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/codex/persistent-case-handoffs/doc/plans/2026-10-20-copilot-completion-recovery-compatibility-v49.json).
This is bounded compatibility evidence, not a fresh full matrix,
installed-package product test, or Daytona rollout.

Preserved CI failures and retries:

- On `20662930ac`, Slack managed setup failed a five-second success
assertion after reload. Its test/application path was unchanged from a
prior green head. One unchanged-source retry passed all 25 tests in that
shard; no source or timeout changed.
- On `9402b4f17a`, two CI workers received shutdown signals at 15:24:19
UTC. Neither log had an assertion failure before interruption. One
unchanged-source retry of each passed all Runner static checks and all
32 tests in browser shard 6; both aggregates passed. The next head,
`7b4374edaf`, passed all CI without retries.
- On `295f289b5a`, serialized shard 9 timed out during its first
device-login test, then the next test found an active login lease.
Direct login/test paths were unchanged from a prior green head. Cold
import plus a timed-out async body using the next test's mutable
actor/store is the supported fixture-race explanation; no request trace
proves that sequence. The original failure remains recorded. One
unchanged-source retry passed all 294 tests in 19 files, including all
41 device-login tests. No login source or timeout changed. The
subsequent `ce361ae5d0` CI passed without retries.
- On `64fdd3403f`, one company-switch settings assertion observed an
unsettled draft. The final test-only commit uses React `act` without
changing assertions, timeouts, or production code. On `765fccd67c`, all
ten settings tests and the complete 385-file, 3,963-test UI shard
passed.
- On `765fccd67c`, browser shard 3 completed the split-handoff
assertions, then cleanup received HTTP 500 from run cancellation after a
one-second PostgreSQL row-lock timeout. The extra chat run was reporting
completed work while teardown began. Cleanup stopped before restoring a
global experiment flag, causing a later assertion to fail. Relevant
production and test paths are unchanged from an earlier green commit.
Stop's lock order is consistent, and no nested self-lock was found; the
exact PostgreSQL blocker was not recorded. One unchanged-shard retry
passed. The original failure, trace, and downstream flag failure remain
recorded. No Stop implementation, cleanup assertion, or timeout changed.
The retry supports intermittent cleanup contention; it does not identify
the original blocking transaction.


## Risks

- Local process transfers require host-owned PID/group absence. Missing
or uncertain termination evidence keeps delivery pending, independently
of scratch setup.
- Handoff admission and task cancellation share execution ownership. New
regression tests cover temporary holds, late source writes, and
uncertain provider termination.
- Retained private sources use an intersection of existing permissions.
This intentionally fails closed when a source is missing or an existing
task cannot preserve that boundary.
- Migrations add tables and indexes. They preserve master history and
can replay over prior feature installs. Migration 0368 adds nullable
internal authorization provenance with no default or authority backfill.
Historical transfers still awaiting release without this context fail
closed; an operator must cancel them and request a new handoff.
- Delayed Cloud handoffs depend on the current Cloud membership RPC. An
unavailable, ambiguous, expired, or mismatched response holds the
handoff for retry; it does not reuse cached authority or grant access.
- Bounded reads reload and reauthorize the selected projection per page.
Underlying work grows with the data size and number of pages. Changed
data or routing requires restarting from offset zero without the old
snapshot.
- Phase names and workflow diagrams remain advisory. They do not satisfy
review or approval gates.
- This is a large, cross-cutting PR. The maintainer requested one PR for
the whole feature; the commits separate data, runtime, UI, and
qualification work.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with tool use, code execution, and delegated
code review. The exact deployment model ID and context-window size were
not exposed in the session. Live fixture agents used the explicitly
configured provider model recorded in their test evidence.

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.

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 d0db8820db fix(connections): repair native baseline and approval continuations (#15420)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and the tools they may use.
> - Connection setup separates provider preference from permission to
use a tool.
> - The first native connection baseline could not exercise its intended
decisions.
> - The browser used mutable task titles, and the provider fixture
already granted access.
> - Native provider-choice instructions also disagreed with the
preferred question format. Schema rejection gave no field guidance.
> - This pull request repairs those test preconditions and native
guidance, then fixes restart/approval defects exposed by the corrected
baseline. It also restores missing OpenCode tool-error evidence.
> - The benefit is an inspectable baseline before any further
instruction reduction.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15407.

The original 15-cell baseline remains 0 PASS / 15 FAIL. Ten cells
stopped on stale titles, two Codex cells had schema denials, two
OpenCode cells used already-granted tools, and one Claude cell returned
no native result. No intended user decisions were submitted. The exact
invalid Codex field and underlying Claude failure cause remain unknown.

[Original
campaign](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37562577199)
· [Original
report](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-37562577199-1/index.html)

## What Changed

- Match the browser's task route and visible identifier instead of a
title the agent can change.
- Start native provider-choice fixtures with no agent tool access.
Verify the public effective-access records.
- In the positive case, select Arcade, then grant its exact HubSpot tool
through the real access card. Require both saved decisions and exactly
one observed call.
- Return a canonical `providerQuestionSet` for native input and retain
the equivalent legacy `providerQuestion`.
- Keep invalid input rejected. Return bounded schema locations and
required field names without submitted values.
- Preserve Claude's exact session/content identity while allowing
authenticated registered instruction-copy paths to rotate on a new run.
- Reject duplicate approval reports for an existing exact tool-action
card before they create another human review.
- Wait for a recorded service-approval continuation within the existing
deadline; retain missing or failed continuation grades.
- Forward OpenCode tool activity through the runner facade, preserving
bounded errors and execution-part identity without inventing host-call
joins or exposing arguments.
- Preserve original grades, costs, scope limits and diagnoses in the
dated repair report.

## Verification

- Eval typecheck passes. Support suite: 1,801 PASS, one intentional
skip; Node checks: 128 PASS.
- Connection/schema tests: 51 PASS. Real-server public fixture setup:
one PASS with zero providers.
- Browser support regression: five PASS, including renamed and wrong
tasks.
- Focused Rust safe-feedback test: one PASS.
- Repository typecheck and build pass before the latest master replay.
Post-replay connection/shared/real-server fixture checks: 52 PASS; eval
typecheck passes. The browser review fix additionally passes all five
browser checks and seven suite checks.
- The full local repository run was interrupted incomplete after about
45 minutes, with five integration failures retained. All five pass in a
separate targeted invocation (1,250 unrelated tests skipped). No full
local-suite pass or root cause for the initial local failures is
claimed.
- Corrected frozen source `162cc90fdabe7f505b88ae095044531b82784c92`:
**10 PASS / 5 FAIL** across the [passing Codex
canary](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37575158761)
and [remaining 14
cells](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37576261807).
The canary passes all 17 checks. Claude's two provider-choice
continuations fail on restart, Claude service approval exposes an early
evaluator rejection, Codex service approval creates a duplicate
approval, and OpenCode provider-second times out after both decisions
with no HubSpot call. No original result is regraded.
- Final ledgers count 31 actual runs: 27 succeeded, two failed, two
cancelled during cleanup. All 15 cleanup/budget checks pass. The late
Claude continuation is absent from its earlier workflow snapshot; it
remains in the result/API/final ledger. Original evidence retains 279
hashes. Recorded LLM subtotal $0.04553787 is incomplete billing, not
actual total cost; local runtime is unmetered.
- New repair regressions reproduce the Claude attach failure, duplicate
approval acceptance and dropped OpenCode tool events before their
respective fixes. Nine Rust attachment checks, 127 ACPX host/adapter
tests, 33 completion/control-plane checks, nine eval deadline tests, 59
OpenCode proxy/driver tests, one Rust tool-error/redaction check, and
TypeScript/Rust composer parity pass. Eval typecheck, repository
typecheck and build pass. Existing support coverage is 1,802 PASS plus
128 Node PASS, one intentional support skip; two additional deadline
tests also pass.
- New-source full CI/review and live canaries are pending. The next
bounded selection is Claude provider-decline, Codex service-approve and
one OpenCode provider-second diagnostic with repaired event evidence. No
broader campaign or instruction-reduction qualification is claimed.
- Initial corrected campaign
[37574251834](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37574251834)
was cancelled during shared build after review found the breadcrumb
whitespace assumption. Its matrix job has zero steps and no provider
execution. The real adjacent-span browser regression now reproduces the
old failure and passes after the fix.

## Risks

- The corrected baseline remains 10/15. The new restart/approval fixes
require live qualification; OpenCode evidence forwarding does not itself
establish or fix its prior behavioral failure.
- The positive provider case now expects three runs, including separate
access approval. Its new results are distinct from the original invalid
fixture.
- The old Claude missing-result cause and rejected Codex field are
unknown. These repairs do not retroactively explain or erase either
failure.
- Path rotation must preserve prompt, custom instruction, skill/content
identity and protected provider settings; regression checks reject stale
or changed content. No connection authorization, JSON schema, budget,
cleanup, or final-result requirement is relaxed. Historical Everyday
prompts and gateway setup remain unchanged.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6. The exact deployment variant and context window are
not exposed in this session. Used repository inspection, code editing,
test execution and retained-evidence analysis.

DottaandPaperclip a6306ba606 feat(runner): consolidate Cursor production integration (#15075)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The native Runner keeps provider sessions under company authority,
approvals, budgets and durable recovery.
> - Cursor work was spread across candidate branches. The published
branch lacked later plan, permission and cleanup fixes.
> - Production also needs public installation and matching runtime
assets for local and Daytona execution.
> - This pull request consolidates Cursor onto current mainline recovery
behavior and completes that installation path.
> - The installed v11 release passed focused local and Daytona
qualification after the generic mode and lifecycle cleanup. The later
model-selection correction and current mainline merge produce v14
artifacts that need matching release qualification.
> - Cursor admission is enabled in source; publish only an artifact
combination with matching qualification. Native AskQuestion and complete
per-run dollar accounting remain excluded.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #14435, #14631, #14669, #14699, #14724.

This completes the Cursor implementation by @cryppadotta from combined
source `22c78242a4e0c2369fecf0c2dc4e7600fbad6706`. It preserves newer
mainline recovery, completion and warm-directory behavior. Pi and
Copilot remain gated.

## What Changed

- Generate named Rust and TypeScript ACPX release profiles from one
manifest. Share runtime pins with packaging and server verification.
Preserve vendor runtime versions; bind the updated ACPX patch to Cursor
profile v14 and reject stale generated declarations at build/typecheck.
- Remove ACPX model allowlists, including the former Codex and Pi
restrictions and the duplicate developer test-drive gate. Send any
explicit model ID unchanged to its provider and verify the effective
selection before prompting. The bundled ACPX package forwards unlisted
IDs, rejects mismatched acknowledgements, and restores the exact
selection after session load. It does not expand Cursor model aliases.
Provider rejection, mismatch, or missing model controls fails without a
fallback. Model examples live in evaluation fixtures, outside runtime
declarations.

- Add pinned Cursor execution, contained instructions, exact model
verification and Agent/Plan/Ask modes.
- Carry an opaque generic `mode` identifier in shared native execution,
sidecar, Rust and recovery contracts. The provider adapter owns
supported modes, defaults, native translation and acknowledgement.
- Keep native RPC recognition, accepted-plan interpretation and
permission evidence behind provider adapters. Shared settlement and
recovery verify normalized facts and their committed evidence.
- Replace the Cursor-only warm-attachment branch with a runner-owned
capability. Only Cursor opts into it. Move profile compatibility and
optional usage parsing into provider metadata and adapters.
- Write generic plan-wait receipts. Read exact historical Cursor
receipts through a separate compatibility decoder. Reject mixed formats
and preserve existing authority checks.
- Carry native plans, semantic questions, todos, child activity,
permission identities and partial usage diagnostics through the Runner.
- Preserve durable response delivery, cancellation, warm ownership and
process retirement.
- Finish accepted planning runs successfully. Keep their tasks open for
explicit direction. Acceptance does not start implementation.
- Ship `paperclipai runtime setup cursor` and its provisioner through
the public package. npm installation does not download Cursor. Setup
uses the OS account's closure-keyed cache so system-wide npm packages
can remain read-only. Run it as the Paperclip service account.
- Include Cursor in normal provider packs and Daytona images for macOS
ARM64/x64 and Linux x64.
- Reject stale release packs by source revision and current ACPX/Cursor
pins before assembly writes files. Verify current Cursor
version/profile/closure again at runtime.
- Ship all three daemon targets and the expected Linux image-pack
identity. A macOS controller uses its packaged Linux daemon for Daytona.
Image mismatches fail before provider launch.
- Use the vendored Runner boundary for installed readiness probes.
Verify the actual installed Cursor probe.
- Verify compiled public Daytona plugins and their release versions in
installed smokes.
- Record exact artifacts, the acceptance matrix, retained failures,
supported capabilities and rollback behavior in the [readiness
report](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/codex/cursor-production-readiness/doc/plans/2026-10-03-cursor-production-readiness.md).

## Verification

- Current head `f7ec5cc1f0e30c62a829c016ff2013a2a9d79037` merges
mainline `faa8e452c73bae5e044dd6379179a00106abb131`. It keeps Cursor
plan and cancellation guards alongside mainline historical-question
filtering. The evaluation catalog includes both Cursor and expanded
adapter accounting cases (683 total). Recursive typecheck, full build,
696 lifecycle/recovery tests, 45 fixture tests and fixture typecheck
passed. Current-head CI passed: 56 successful checks, one neutral and
four skipped. [Complete
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37557996535).
The fresh Base Greptile review is 5/5 on this exact head, with 304 files
reviewed, zero new comments and zero unresolved threads. The user
authorized overriding the CODEOWNER review gate after checks passed; no
failing checks are overridden. Prior results below retain their own head
identities.
- Corrective head `3d2b168366258036f6b6a6fccb382c49138cc601` fixes the
post-merge Apex finding. Automatic-review and new-evidence
reconciliation preserve pending child results and recheck delivery under
the status lock before completing. Account repair now excludes unrelated
secret consumers and requires the failed agent's identity. Regression
coverage includes the commit race, delivery statuses,
current-run/current-intent exclusions, repeated reconciliation, both
database reconciliation paths, and credential consumer boundaries. All
184 affected tests, server typecheck and server build passed.
Current-head Base Greptile review is 5/5, with 304 files reviewed, zero
new comments and zero unresolved threads. Current-head CI passed: 56
successful checks, one neutral and four skipped. [Complete
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37535994724).
This Base review is distinct from the earlier Apex review.
- Merge head `5957c257a` reconciles mainline `b508a05c4`. It preserves
both accepted-plan waits and pending-child-completion checks, current
provider selectors, task-creation response identities, and mainline ACPX
missing-file handling. The combined patch is bound to Cursor profile
v14; historical records keep their original identities.
- Merge head `5957c257a` passed recursive typecheck, full build, 43
installed ACPX/package contracts, 107 provider UI and plan/recovery
tests, 593 database-backed lifecycle tests, 49 profile/native contract
tests, 45 Product E2E fixture tests, fixture typecheck, token gates,
three provider-free browser task-creation cases, and Runner
conformance/replay checks. Its complete CI passed (55 successful checks,
one neutral and four skipped), while Apex returned 2/5 with a
child-delivery finding addressed below.
- The local full-suite attempt again failed the unchanged Git streaming
test (360-second timeout) and was stopped. The concurrent local Rust
attempt failed four unchanged Codex process/deadline tests; all four
passed serially without code changes in 7.29 seconds after removing the
competing test load. These failed commands are retained and are not
reported as full-suite passes; the fresh Linux CI runs are tracked
separately.
- The previous head `907bdb2a2778c7ffeb4a662a91460c9d1ddfc9c5` earned
Apex 5/5 with zero comments after fixing all three findings: per-user
install cache, stale release-pack rejection, and public Linux smoke
account/home handling. Its real built installer passed from read-only
public packages on macOS ARM64 and Linux x64. All 137 release-registry
checks and 64 ACPX package contracts passed. That review does not cover
this mainline reconciliation.
- Prior `beadd3654` passed the full CI matrix; its one unchanged chat
test failure and successful single retry remain in the [CI
history](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37521449327).
Historical results below remain attributed to their original builds.

- Fixture follow-up `dd59d7e82b103a88b7cbd7d2c38b612c0fbbff7a` removes
provider-specific model choices from generic offline ACPX tests. The
fake sidecar preserves the model and session identity selected at open
through suspension. Affected verification passed: 106 Rust tests and 73
TypeScript tests. This commit changes test code only; the
production-code checks below retain their recorded identities. Its CI
and Greptile review later passed; those results belong to that
historical head.
- Model-selection cleanup `9a070808b48960a41fdfd369ae0636b95af82459`:
252 focused Runner tests passed (six platform skips), covering all six
ACPX agents, native model acknowledgement, rejected selections,
installation integrity and recovery identity. The merged branch passed
recursive typecheck, full build, token gates, server admission (19
tests), and the Product E2E catalog (45 tests). The acceptance catalog
passed all four tests. The full Rust suite passed: 643 tests, 2 ignored.
It verifies sidecar acknowledgement of unlisted models and rejection of
model mismatches. The final commits only update Rust tests; production
sources match the verified build at
`65ec3279ac50185e3cda109b5cfd9b4f56105de0`. No new paid provider calls
were made.
- The merge preserves both Cursor and the new mainline public-MCP
fixture cases. Auto-merge remains disabled; the latest follow-up status
is recorded above. The local `pnpm test:run` attempt hit the unchanged
Git streaming test's 300-second timeout and was interrupted before
merging mainline. The broad Runner attempt found obsolete single-model
assertions plus three macOS fixture-path failures caused by a
`/private/tmp` override. The assertions are corrected; affected
TypeScript checks passed with the standard macOS temporary directory,
and the complete Rust suite passed. Neither interrupted command is a
full-suite pass.
- Earlier declaration-cleanup head `6f4a5e9e2` passed recursive
typecheck, build, Rust and focused tests. Its CI later exposed a test
expecting duplicated Grok digest literals. The current source fixes that
assertion to compare launcher bytes with the shared manifest. Historical
successes and failed attempts are retained; no new live provider
qualification is claimed.
- Previous head `e75fde6098b0ddd8cec765bfb6ecaeecb88a26a6` passed
complete CI (56 successful checks, one neutral, four skipped) and
Greptile 5/5. [Historical complete
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37489112305).
Those results are not claimed for the cleanup head.
- Frozen live application: `d7b696f9b8f79095233e9e3d56d23e6a6018dd48`.
Public package version: `0.0.0-cursor-verify.3d0c9b7761c6`. The
declaration cleanup preserves release pins and does not relabel that
tested artifact as a build of the new source. Mainline through
`e34abee670` was reconciled while preserving accepted-plan waits,
provider-capacity handling, and both Cursor and public-MCP fixtures.
- Clean normal installation, explicit Cursor setup and daemon resolution
passed on macOS ARM64, macOS x64 under Rosetta, and Linux x64. npm
lifecycle hooks ran without silently downloading Cursor.
- Historical v11 live matrix: **18/18 passed with cleanup** (nine local,
nine Daytona) after the generic mode and lifecycle cleanup. The campaign
has 23 attempts; all five failures and their diagnoses remain recorded.
Exact case identities, hashes and limits are in the readiness report.
All provider calls are real, use the explicit Luna model and
company-bound credentials, and run without qualification or
runtime-asset overrides.
- The immutable Daytona image is
`ghcr.io/paperclipai/paperclip-daytona-runner@sha256:d6259b6bba094702c13fc2283bd85550849c1c53145b656fb2746778f9fa1747`.
The public Daytona plugin is installed independently and its version is
checked.
- Recursive typecheck, full build, token gates and Runner
contract/conformance/replay checks passed on the frozen application. Its
complete Linux CI suite passed. The duplicate local full-suite command
was incomplete after timing failures; affected repeats passed, but that
command is not reported as a clean pass.
- Qualification fixtures passed typecheck, 1,675 Vitest tests (one
skip), 128 Node checks, three provider-free browser tests, and 150
focused lifecycle tests after the final diagnostic correction. The
affected legacy Cursor command file also passed all five tests after
removing its shorter 10-second override; it now inherits the suite’s
standard 15-second timeout. Greptile is 5/5 on `e75fde609` with no
unresolved review threads. CI results above are recorded separately from
historical build results.

## Risks

- Cursor v14 includes the updated ACPX dependency patch and release
identity. The v11 live matrix and image below remain historical
evidence. They do not certify new v14 package/image artifacts.

- ACPX accepts models beyond the qualification fixtures. Availability
and entitlement depend on the provider. Successful configuration is not
a claim of live qualification for every model.
- Shared mode is an opaque identifier. Provider adapters own its
meaning. Incompatible historical sessions remain fenced; exact committed
plan waits and task history remain inspectable.
- Native AskQuestion is excluded. Paperclip semantic questions are
supported. Authoritative per-run dollar accounting is unavailable;
partial counters remain diagnostics and unknown cost is not zero.
- Image input, detailed native diffs, deeper child transcripts and
native plan-file export remain follow-ups.
- macOS x64 has clean-install and daemon-startup proof under Rosetta,
not a separate live campaign on Intel hardware.
- Release only the tested package/image combination. Merging this PR
does not publish npm packages or deploy that image. Later builds need
their own release verification. Rollback disables new Cursor admission
while preserving records and recovery inspection.
- A model can fail an exact instruction: one cancelled-plan attempt
returned the wrong summary marker despite correct cancellation. The
unchanged repeat passed; both results remain in the report.

> ROADMAP.md was checked. This completes existing native Runner/Cursor
work; it does not add an independent core feature proposal.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6. The exact serving variant and context window are
not exposed in this session. The agent used reasoning, repository
inspection, code execution, protocol tests and browser-backed Product
E2E tools. Cursor acceptance uses the explicit
`gpt-5.6-luna[context=272k,reasoning=medium,fast=false]` model. That is
the evaluated provider model.

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.

DottaandPaperclip a386a59998 Reduce repeated native completion guidance and preserve final replies (#15151)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native agents receive task constraints and completion tools from
Paperclip.
> - Completion tools already define the procedure for reporting a
result.
> - Repeated procedure text adds instructions to each full task turn.
> - The final reply must still explain a blocker and link a saved
document.
> - This pull request removes repeated procedure text and keeps these
visible outcome requirements explicit.
> - A document receipt supplies the exact link, and stricter evals check
the persisted reply and browser navigation.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #14961. Related: #14948 and #15007.

**What happened?**

Native task envelopes repeat completion procedure text. A reduced
envelope needs explicit final-reply requirements. The `write_document`
receipt also lacks a canonical document link.

**Expected behavior**

Keep the completion tools as the source of procedure details. Require
one accepted completion result before the final reply. A blocked reply
must explain the reason, owner and unblock action. A document reply must
contain a working link to the saved document.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run the native assigned-skill document case and native blocker case.
2. Inspect the run-attributed provider final and its persisted comment.
3. Check the blocker explanation or open the final reply's document
link.

## What Changed

- Remove repeated completion procedure text from the native task
constraints and backend instructions.
- Keep explicit blocker and document-link requirements in full task
turns.
- Return a company/task-scoped `documentHref` from `write_document`.
Preserve the link in the idempotent mutation receipt.
- Repeat canonical links for this run's current saved revisions in
accepted completion feedback. Give blocked providers final-response
guidance for the cause, owner and unblock action.
- Keep internal document/comment anchors when Markdown issue links load
cached issue details.
- Add a manual six-cell comparison suite with strict source, build,
default-instruction and budget admission.
- Capture eighteen shared runnerd RPC projections and six direct
OpenCode HTTP projections across start, resume and continuation phases,
using scripted local transports and no provider execution.
- Apply v3 checks only to the manual instruction comparison; preserve v2
checks for the existing native completion suite. Check the actual
persisted blocker reason and exact saved-document link. Click the
rendered document link and check the original content marker in the
classic document card or the new document tab.
- Forward exact OpenCode finishing calls through the controller. Wait
for acceptance, keep accepted feedback and concrete rejection text, and
reject malformed responses. Preserve ordinary dynamic-tool response
handling.
- Settle the completion decision and tool response before mapping a
racing idle/error/abort event or handling explicit close/interruption.
Reject a concurrent finishing call before controller admission.
- Add a provider-free regression through real runnerd, the OpenCode
proxy and a fake provider. Reject the first completion, accept the
corrected report in the same turn, and propose one result.
- Keep all original verdicts unchanged. Treat replay under new checks as
separate diagnostics.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass locally.
- Native document-authority tests pass, including company/run
authorization and idempotent replay.
- Native runtime-context, backend and measurement tests pass.
- Final-answer calibration, protocol scoring, source-admission and
catalog tests pass. Wrong reasons, absent links and wrong link targets
fail.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck` passes. Discovery lists exactly six
single-attempt local cells with the declared models.
- Exported `prepareNativeInstructionPreflight` then
`verifyNativeInstructionPreflight` pass on this clean committed source.
They build locally and make zero provider calls.
- Corrective live confirmation is incomplete. Source 3a7349d passed both
Claude and both Codex cases. OpenCode saved the correct document but
omitted its final link; its blocker case was canceled before paid
execution. Preserve this failure. The e171282 confirmation was stopped
during build after fresh review found a completion-settlement race; it
executed zero providers. Source c3e0cb303 fixes that race. Two affected
OpenCode cases await fresh review and one bounded confirmation; earlier
results remain attributed to their original source.
- OpenCode proxy parsing, driver, factory and input tests: 81 pass
across retained focused runs, including six settlement races.
Evaluator/scoring/admission checks: 122 pass. The real proxy regression
passes. Fresh local prepare then verify passes with 18 shared and 6
direct scripted captures, fresh SDK/Rust builds and zero providers.
- The full local suite recorded two failures: a webhook timeout and a
Git-scan load count mismatch. Both files pass in isolation with
unchanged assertions/time budgets; preserve the original failure log.
Fresh c3e0cb303 CI and review are pending. This PR remains draft.

## Risks

- Final-answer wording can vary by provider. The checks cover the
declared release-access blocker and saved document fixture, not general
answer quality.
- A single trial does not establish general equivalence, cause, speed,
cost or live resume behavior.
- `documentHref` is an additive receipt field. It points to the current
saved document, not an immutable historical revision. Replaying an older
receipt does not fabricate a new link.
- The correction adds four production paths for document receipts,
accepted completion feedback and UI navigation, plus four OpenCode
controller/proxy paths, beyond the original three instruction paths.
Completion rejection must remain repairable; the production-boundary
regression covers it.
- Preserve the frozen comparison context for live measurement. A
merge-tree check against current master is clean. Do not relabel earlier
live results as results from a later source tree.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family. The exact serving model ID and context
window are unavailable in this session. Capabilities used: reasoning,
code editing, shell execution, test authoring and evidence review.

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 c1f6c3310a fix(runner): repair catalog runtime and grading boundaries (#13676)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages tasks across persistent agent sessions.
> - The full Runner E2E catalog exposed failures in session restoration,
tool validation, and test controls.
> - These failures prevented valid work from resuming or made a valid
interaction fail the test.
> - Invalid completion reports also reached finalization before the
provider received useful feedback.
> - This pull request repairs those boundaries without changing
production prompts or approval policy.
> - Focused regressions and fresh paid cases verify each fix.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Follow-up to #13655. Stacked on the trusted worker prerequisite fix in
#13674.

**What happened?**

Read-only skill uploads failed in resumed Daytona sandboxes. Invalid
criterion IDs escaped tool validation. A progress event could park a run
before its tool response settled. Partial question forms hid required
answers. Two test assumptions rejected valid plan keys or failed to
navigate an optional question page.

**What did you expect to happen?**

Resume identical skill bundles, give repairable feedback for malformed
completion calls, preserve in-flight tool responses, show all required
questions, and test the rendered workflow accurately.

**Steps to reproduce**

Inspect the failed cases in
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/35417932353. Fresh
campaigns:
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/35444497313 and
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/35445327618. The
later backup cleanup is tested in
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/35446477285.
Combined report:
https://pages.paperclip.ing/runner-e2e-operational-35444497313/investigation.html.

## What Changed

- Compare immutable archives before reusing read-only Daytona bundles.
Reject corrupted content and preserve unrelated files.
- Validate exact criterion IDs before accepting completion. OpenCode
returns a tool error instead of emitting a result that terminates
runnerd.
- Complete the activity item for rejected OpenCode calls.
- Remove retired read-only harness backups without altering live files
or following symlinks. A fresh paid rerun exposed this later
checkpoint-cleanup failure.
- Exclude progress messages from the governed-wait completion boundary.
- Reject newly created question forms that omit questions or contradict
their stored answer semantics. Keep historical rows readable.
- Navigate all rendered question pages and recognize revision-bound
descriptive plan keys in the continuation suite.

## Verification

- Harness unit suite: 383 tests pass. Harness typecheck passes.
- Native session executor and status corpus: 381 tests pass.
- Shared question and interaction-service tests: 42 pass; native
question bridge and executor: 360 pass. Daytona sync: 21 pass, including
foreign-owner archives and corrupted immutable content.
- OpenCode driver: 29 tests pass, including wrong, missing, and
duplicate criterion IDs followed by a valid retry.
- Repository typecheck and build pass. The later OpenCode activity fix
also passes its package build.
- The latest commit passes all 52 PR checks and Greptile 5/5. The
backup-cleanup fix also passes 351 related local tests and server
typecheck. Local full-suite coverage completed across runs.
adapter-auth-signal-routes and pipelines-routes encountered transient
socket resets; both pass on retry, and all remaining 24 serialized files
pass. Paid reruns are complete: 27 of 29 unique cases pass using the
latest recording per case. Both Daytona controller-restart cases still
fail with runner_state_identity_mismatch; the report describes this
remaining runtime issue. Eight affected cells need #13674 on master
before their rerun.

## Risks

Creation rejects inconsistent dual question representations but does not
change historical records. Immutable bundle comparison must verify bytes
before skipping extraction. Completion feedback must use the contract
bound to the current run. Durable suspension and approval checks remain
enforced. Production prompts are unchanged.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 43acbcc398 fix(runner): preserve sessions and complete question and approval continuations (#13655)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The native runner connects task state to provider sessions.
> - Follow-up turns must retain provider memory and carry new user
direction.
> - Lost session IDs caused repeated context and extra input tokens.
> - Native question answers and approval races could leave valid work
blocked.
> - This pull request repairs those paths and adds regression coverage.
> - Agents can continue accepted work without repeating the conversation
or losing the user's answer.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13574. That merged PR shortened continuation prompts and moved
question instructions into tool documentation. This change preserves
sessions and fixes failures exposed by broader testing. Related runtime
work: #13408 and #13410.

**What happened?**

Native follow-up turns could lose the provider session ID. Completion
guidance could replace the original task with its latest comment. Claude
native questions could remain pending after the user answered. Approval
during a running tool call could suspend the run before the tool
response arrived. Onboarding and chat handoff instructions also caused
repeated planning or missing plan documents.

**Expected behavior**

Reuse a valid provider session. Send only new events when that session
already has the history. Preserve the task requirements and apply later
user direction. Store the question answer and deliver it to the waiting
run. Finish governed tool responses before suspending. Execute the
accepted plan without asking for the same approval again.

**Steps to reproduce**

Run the continuation, local-session-integrity, first-task, and
agent-chat suites with native Codex and Claude. Include
provider-question-bridge, accept-while-running, and plan-handoff.

**Paperclip version or commit**

This branch is based on master d54b75011. The active full catalog run
tests 4e75881db. Later review fixes have separate regression coverage.

**Deployment mode**

Isolated local instances and Daytona sandboxes in the existing Runner
full-stack E2E harness.

## What Changed

- Retain provider session identity across turns and late usage
snapshots. Send new continuation events on session reuse, with full
context available for a fresh session.
- Preserve task requirements and later direction in completion guidance.
Return the current contract revision after a stale completion
submission.
- Bridge native Claude questions to saved Paperclip cards. Submit
answers through the saved card and resume the same run.
- Delay governed suspension until tool results settle. Add a
deterministic test barrier for approval during an active run.
- Clarify free-text question examples, explicit onboarding plans, and
execution of accepted chat plans.
- Fix continuation readiness, verified output evidence, and declared
screenshot collection.
- Qualify the legacy Claude test CLI at 2.1.277. The old 2.1.19 CLI did
not discover mounted skills. Update the existing workflow pin and
isolated launcher together.
- Refresh the Daytona image lockfile integrity pin after reviewing
master patch updates.
- Carry continuation mode as runtime metadata instead of inferring it
from user-visible text. Install the test Claude CLI without lifecycle
scripts.

## Verification

- Targeted paid verification: 20/20 cases passed across
local-environment campaigns before the rebase.
[Report](https://pages.paperclip.ing/runner-e2e-seven-fixes-35397904249/).
- Harness checks: 379 unit tests passed; harness typecheck passed.
- Latest-head PR checks: 55 passed, two intentionally skipped. Greptile
is 5/5; the security scan passes.
- Review regressions: 350 executor tests and 204 session/driver tests
passed. A script-free Claude install was verified with the actual CLI.
- Full catalog, including the explicit-only everyday suite: [run
35417932353](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/35417932353).
Completed: **164/205 passed; 41 failed**. [Full dashboard and failure
investigation](https://pages.paperclip.ing/runner-e2e-full-catalog-35417932353/).
Includes 204 case artifacts and one pre-case GitHub authorization
timeout; missing evidence is not scored as a pass. The full run tested
`4e75881db`; Final-head metadata/CLI smoke cases both passed. In the
separate [six infrastructure
retries](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/35419769343),
the GitHub timeout case passed and all five Docker preflight failures
repeated. [Follow-up
dashboard](https://pages.paperclip.ing/runner-e2e-full-catalog-35417932353/follow-up/).
- Full local typecheck and build passed on the rebased branch. The full
local unit run completed with 657 passing files, two test timeouts and
one suite setup timeout. All three affected files passed when rerun in
isolation (84 tests). The first full local run was not clean.
- Focused regression coverage includes the live question bridge,
same-run response delivery, UI routing, stale revisions, approval
overlap, and session reuse.

## Full-catalog follow-ups

- Test infrastructure: 14 Claude everyday cells probe an absent host
CLI; six cells failed pre-task GitHub/Docker qualification (GitHub
passes on retry; all five Docker cases repeat; the workflow preflight
allowlist omits their case IDs); five ACPX Codex cells cannot create
sandbox namespaces.
- Runtime: four OpenCode completion-criteria mismatches masked by
shutdown errors, one service-approval suspension failure; three Daytona
recovery failures encounter existing skill files; one duplicate
completion wake.
- Confirmed test defects: question pagination and a noncanonical plan
document key.
- Product/behavior: mismatched visible/required question sets, an
attachment instead of the requested task document, one lone-option
onboarding question, early completion instead of review, and a Codex
Mini completion-schema failure.
- The report job itself fails on trusted master’s stale patch/lock
configuration. The linked report is rebuilt with the shared renderer
from original cell results and public fixture screenshots; it excludes
private snapshots, logs and traces.

These are investigated follow-ups, not silently regraded passes.
First-task passed 51/52. The PR checks are green independently of the
broader catalog’s behavioral/infrastructure failures.

## Risks

- Session reuse depends on a valid provider identity and context
coverage. Fresh-session fallback and reset tests cover this boundary.
- Native question delivery spans saved interaction state and a live
provider run. Tests cover duplicate events, closed runs, and same-run
answers.
- Provider behavior varies. The full paid catalog may expose failures
beyond these targeted fixes; those results will be reported without
relaxing valid approval or output checks.
- The legacy Claude version update is limited to test infrastructure. No
database migration is included.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with repository inspection, code execution,
and browser/E2E tools. The exact runtime model identifier and
context-window size are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 84fe89906d fix: complete native agent review handoffs (#13581)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native execution uses durable runs, issue locks, wake requests, and

**What happened?**

A native child run could report `needs_review` for an agent reviewer.
The reviewer wake then failed assignee and execution-lock checks. The
child remained in review and the parent remained waiting.

**Expected behavior**

The named reviewer should receive one durable wake. The reviewer should
inspect the child and resolve the exact review card. The child assignee
should stay unchanged. The parent should receive the recorded review
outcome after the child reaches its terminal state.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run a native task with a different named agent reviewer.
2. Keep the child assigned to its original worker.
3. Let the worker finish with a native completion review request.
4. Start the durable reviewer wake.
5. Resolve the review and finish the reviewer run.
6. Observe the child and parent state.

source: `eea171aae`.

**Deployment mode**

Built from source.

**Installation method**

Built from source (pnpm build).

**Database mode**

Embedded PostgreSQL in the isolated live test fixtures.

## What Changed

- Add server-validated native review assignment facts.
- Admit only the exact company, issue, source run, decision, revision,
addressee, and resolver policy.
- Give reviewer runs a narrow set of Paperclip read and resolve tools.
File and shell access follow the configured agent and environment
policy, so reviewers can run tests.
- Separate server-owned reviewer instructions from untrusted persisted
review data. Escape the data boundary; retain server-enforced
authorization.
- Keep the child assignee unchanged. Atomically claim the reviewer run,
wake request, and issue execution lock. A competing lock prevents
provider startup.
- Require the exact running reviewer session and current issue lock to
resolve its assigned card. Reject missing, unrelated, or terminal
reviewer runs.
- Add durable reviewer wake, lock, stale-card, and abandoned-run
recovery handling.
- Prevent duplicate native wake dispatches during deferred admission and
recovery.
- Carry accepted or rejected child review outcomes into parent task
context and continuation evidence.
- Add focused server, runner, and native protocol coverage.
- Preserve upstream continuation rules. Add child review decisions as
separate evidence, while keeping real human answers in their own field.
- Return actionable completion validation feedback to both providers.
Permit a corrected completion after rejection. Keep strict terminal
acknowledgment validation.
- Apply exclusive shared-workspace locks to sandbox environments. Local
and SSH folders can run concurrently, including when old settings
request serialization.
- Repair test timing, native event parsing, and the review artifact
assertion. Allow a valid reject, correct, and accept review sequence.
Check the accepted card against its reviewer run and decision. Keep
polling within the existing deadline when review acceptance precedes the
parent wake projection; report a specific missing-continuation error at
timeout.
- Apply the ACPX pending-call limit to reserved finish/block calls, with
capacity-release and cancellation tests.

## Verification

- `pnpm build`: passed on `eea171aae`.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed on `eea171aae`.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:unit`: 359 tests passed in 30 files on
`b31ad9ab8`; runner E2E typecheck also passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates`: passed.
- Focused DB review, reviewer authority, and prompt-boundary checks: 31
tests passed. They cover invalid reviewer runs, competing locks, atomic
admission, duplicate claims, and valid resolution.
- Heartbeat, workspace, and recovery checks: 30 tests passed.
- ACPX sidecar suite: 27 tests passed. Moving the capacity guard back
below reserved handling makes both new regression cases fail.
- Four focused live continuation checks passed on their first attempt at
`f15f55e0a`: answer updates scope (6/6 each on Codex and Claude) and
question tool guidance (12/12 each). These cases do not use the reviewer
prompt path changed afterward.
- Fresh Codex and Claude review-handoff checks passed all 29 native
checks each on their first attempt at `eea171aae`. Both runs received
the expected fixed prompt and completed cleanup. Only the six selected
live flows were tested; no full paid provider catalog run.
- The final commit only extracts the existing test-harness timeout
diagnostic into a shared helper and adds positive and negative coverage.
Removing the accepted-review guard makes two regression assertions fail;
restoring it passes all six timeout tests. Production runtime code,
prompts, deadlines, and grading criteria are unchanged by this final
commit.
- Deadline regressions: a valid continuation delayed 20 seconds succeeds
within its 30-second unit-test deadline; an absent wake returns a
specific candidate-failure diagnostic at that same deadline. Both
assertions failed before the fix. Production E2E deadlines remain
unchanged.
- Historical native failures remain recorded: Docker availability
failures; a valid reject/correct/accept sequence that the first-card
grader misread; and a test that rejected the gap between accepted child
review and parent wake projection. No failed result was regraded. The
latest tests use a protected reference to the pinned Docker image and
the unchanged artifact oracle and time limits.
- Full repository verification runs in GitHub CI. Local verification
uses the focused suites above, full build, and full typecheck. An
unchanged Codex shutdown timing test failed once in CI, passed in
isolation, and its full shard passed on the final commit without changes
to that test or its causal code path. The original failure is retained
in the verification record. Greptile reviewed `b31ad9ab8` at 5/5 with no
outstanding actionable findings. All review threads are resolved. All
current-head CI gates passed, including the isolated native runner
Docker build (55 successful checks; two skipped by the workflow).

## Risks

- Reviewer admission depends on exact persisted decision and interaction
bindings. A stale or changed card is rejected.
- Paperclip control-plane tools are limited to inspection and review
resolution. This is not a filesystem permission boundary; provider file
and shell access retain the configured policy.
- Deferred wake recovery changes dispatch receipt coalescing. A
scheduler regression could delay a continuation if the receipt state is
wrong.
- Parent review outcomes are evidence for the model. They do not grant
tool authority or change issue ownership.
- This change does not address legacy lease-hold handoff behavior.

> Roadmap review: native execution, review gates, and durable recovery
are existing roadmap capabilities. This PR completes a narrow
reliability path for those capabilities.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6-astra` with reasoning, tool use, and code execution.
OpenAI `gpt-5.6-luna` assisted with bounded implementation, review, and
journal work. Context window size is not exposed by this session. Live
test subjects use `gpt-5.6-sol` and `claude-sonnet-5`; they are not the
PR authors.

DottaandPaperclip f2c5e54dca fix(runner): preserve handoff work and publish requested files (#13355)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets people manage AI agents and their tasks.
> - A task keeps its instructions, progress, and files when its assigned
agent changes.
> - The replacement runner lost the interrupted run's context and could
overwrite an existing draft.
> - A saved message also stayed attached to the former agent and could
reopen the task after the replacement finished.
> - File tasks could report Done with only a local path that the user
could not open.
> - This pull request transfers handoff context and saved messages, and
makes requested files accessible through the existing attachment
contract.
> - Users can change agents and collect completed work without repeating
instructions or confirming bookkeeping.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13338. Builds on merged #13354 for queue admission and #13353 for
remote workspace retry. #10123 concerns restricted recovery-model
escalation; this change instead covers ordinary native handoff and file
completion.

**What happened?**

Codex wrote a draft before a user assigned the task to Claude. The
replacement lacked continuation context and replaced the draft. A queued
user message could later restart the former agent and reopen the
completed task. Separately, a runner could finish a requested file but
return only a machine-local path. Remote native runs had no bound file
publication tool.

**Expected behavior**

The replacement reads and preserves existing work, receives saved
messages once, and keeps each message's author. The former agent stays
stopped. A requested file has a working attachment or accessible work
product before Done. Text-only tasks do not require attachments.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Ask Codex to save three newsletter names and then wait.
2. Queue an instruction to keep those names and expand the draft.
3. Use Interrupt and assign to select Claude.
4. Verify the original names survive, the result has a working download,
and only the source and replacement runs exist.
5. Ask either provider for a Markdown checklist and open the file from
its completed response.

## What Changed

- Carry the exact same-task interrupted run's summary, semantic
receipts, and history into handoff context. Tell the replacement to
inspect existing files before editing.
- Adopt saved ordinary task comments into the successor's receipt under
the task lock. Preserve authors and separate mention, chat, and
interaction contracts.
- Prevent a former-assignee comment wake from reopening a completed task
or starting a stale execution.
- Reject workspace-only, fabricated, and cross-task file completion
references with actionable runner feedback. New file output also needs a
matching current-run publication receipt and asset filename/size/hash,
or an accessible work product registered by the current run. Prior
output can remain context alongside a current file, or be verified and
re-registered internally. Authorized chat attachment reuse retains its
verified current-run clone receipt; older receipt shapes require an
intact matching source.
- Bind remote file reads to the active environment runner and reuse the
existing attachment and work-product publication path.
- Enforce workspace confinement, regular single-link files, stable
identity, a 10 MiB limit, and exact size and SHA-256 checks. Rotate the
native session fingerprint for the updated tool contract.
- Contain rejected remote signals and protocol-failure cleanup,
including logging failures. Preserve the original cleanup rejection for
its owner; a rejected operation never supplies stop acknowledgement or
cleanup proof.
- Allow exactly one maximum-size base64 file through the native SSH
command adapter, preserving a finite output cap.
- Document handoff and accessible file completion rules.

## Verification

- Each observed bug has a failing regression before its fix. Final
post-rebase integration passed 732 tests across 13 files before the
final receipt and signal guards; final affected results are below.
- Publication provenance and compatibility: 8 provenance regressions and
2 compatibility regressions failed before their fixes; the final four
affected suites pass 53 tests, including mixed old/new references and
real authorized chat reuse. Controls cover old attachments and work
products, filename/size/hash/origin mismatch, missing/wrong receipts,
current-run publication, same-run durable proof, internally
re-registering preserved bytes, and no-new-file follow-ups.
- Remote signal rejection: the real Node subprocess previously exited 1
when the production launcher signalled a deleted sandbox. It now stays
alive for both a failed signal and failed logging; all 349 executor
tests pass. The failed signal still provides no termination proof.
- Remote file reader and SSH command boundary: 33 tests passed,
including real Linux descriptor reads and the actual SSH adapter
subprocess output cap (network executable replaced by a deterministic
fixture). Exact 10 MiB bytes pass, one byte beyond the encoded cap
fails.
- Live local Claude and Codex Stop journeys preserve the saved file,
deliver queued instructions once, and reach Done with two total runs.
The handoff journey preserves the original names and download with
exactly two runs. Both local providers deliver exact checklist files
without a completion confirmation.
- Live combined Daytona verification passed: the original failed task's
Retry reused its sandbox; a selected Git subfolder produced an exact
downloadable file; warm and deliberately resumed Claude runs took about
33 seconds. Codex produced a 240-byte download in 33.1 seconds after 134
seconds of contention/backoff. Both cloud downloads retained exact bytes
after the two owned sandboxes were deleted.
- The sandbox-deletion retest identified a separate ignored promise in
protocol-failure cleanup. Two real Node subprocess regressions failed
under fatal unhandled-rejection policy before the fix; all 36 protocol,
lifecycle, and integrity tests now pass. The original close promise
still rejects to its owning runtime. The final live retest passed: a
normal Claude Daytona task completed in 132.352 seconds, then its
sandbox was deleted. Thirteen samples over 361 seconds confirmed the
same controller stayed healthy, the task stayed Done with unchanged run
IDs, and its attachment retained exact bytes. The post-deletion browser
download passed with zero page errors; all five owned sandboxes are
confirmed absent.
- Full repository typecheck and build passed on final commit
`de64d16f1`. Final-head Greptile is 5/5 with no unresolved threads.
[Final-head
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34736623758)
passed: 32 successful checks and two conditional skips. The earlier
mixed-source full local test invocation was deliberately stopped before
rebase, so no pristine green full local aggregate is claimed. Its known
failures passed in later affected suites.

## Risks

- Handoff may adopt only ordinary comments from its validated former
owner. Other delivery contracts must remain independent.
- File verification fails closed if a remote file changes during
reading. The runner must retry publication or explain a blocker.
- The updated session fingerprint starts a fresh provider process where
needed to install the new tool contract.
- No schema migration or historical status reconciliation is included.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6-astra` through Codex, with reasoning, code execution,
browser testing, and tool use. The context-window size is not exposed in
this task.

DottaandPaperclip c9021c6721 fix: require explicit native completion reviews (#13314)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native runs report their outcome through paperclip_finish.
> - The server previously turned incomplete reports into human approval
requests.
> - Those requests could block a later successful run, even when no
person had requested review.
> - This pull request creates review cards only for explicit attention
requests and withdraws proven old fallback cards.
> - Agents receive useful completion feedback, while explicit approval
gates and task state protections remain in force.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #13266 removed reviews caused by policy upgrades. This change
removes the separate completion fallback.

**What happened?**

An agent reported needs_review while waiting for checks without
requesting a human decision. Paperclip created a generic Native
completion review. A later successful report could not complete the task
because that old card remained pending.

**Expected behavior**

Ordinary low-risk work completes after a valid done report, a successful
run, and workspace finalization. Incomplete work stays with the agent.
Explicit approval requests remain visible and must be resolved.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Complete a native run with needs_review and no attention requests.
2. Continue the task and submit a successful done report.
3. Observe that the old implementation leaves the task in review behind
a generic confirmation card.

## What Changed

- Require explicit attention requests to create native review cards.
Route each request independently and preserve pending or declined
decisions.
- Withdraw only pending system cards with matching old decision,
assessment, effect, contract, and prompt provenance. Preserve history
and explicit or answered requests.
- Reassess an affected current result without overwriting later task
edits, runs, contracts, or workspace failures.
- Return pending approval links and required actions through the
completion tool. Reject contradictory done reports and empty review
requests before accepting a result.
- Allow one corrective continuation for incomplete results, then expose
a recovery action.
- Update status fixtures, database regressions, runner tests, and the
completion contract documentation.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed after merging current master.
- `pnpm build` passed after merging current master.
- The combined branch passed 89 completion and Agent Chat tests. Other
targeted tests passed: 170 external-chat and reconciliation tests; 50
runner-resume and control-plane tests; 13 arbiter tests; 7 chat delivery
tests; 21 runner completion and runtime-context tests.
- The full local test attempt exposed old review fixtures and a missing
fake-provider binary. The fixtures are fixed and the helper is built.
All affected suites pass in fresh reruns. The timing-sensitive Discord
test also passed on rerun.
- All latest-head CI checks passed, including build, typecheck, general
and serialized tests, runner verification, browser tests, and canary dry
run. Greptile is 5/5 with zero unresolved comments.

## Risks

- Cleanup changes existing pending cards. It requires exact system
provenance and only applies to low-risk agent-claim contracts. It does
not delete history or dismiss explicit requests.
- Status still commits after the turn and workspace finalization.
Completion feedback reports current constraints and does not claim an
early status commit.
- Incomplete reports now request a bounded corrective run instead of an
automatic approval. Repeated failures expose recovery.

## Model Used

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