DottaandPaperclip 53732c811b fix(evals): classify latency from observation bounds (#16829)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Product E2E probes measure when acknowledgements and replies become
visible.
> - A poll gives a time interval for an event.
> - The first positive poll can occur after a target that the event
could still meet.
> - This pull request compares the full interval with a strict or
inclusive target.
> - Reports retain the raw observations and the original verdict when
the timing verdict changes.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A historical acknowledgement was absent at 1901 ms and first present at
2427 ms. A report marked the 2000 ms target as failed. The interval
crosses that target, so the available evidence cannot give a pass or
fail verdict.

**Expected behavior**

Return pass when the full interval meets the target. Return fail when
the full interval rules out the target. Return inconclusive for overlap,
invalid evidence, or insufficient evidence. Respect strict and inclusive
targets and open and closed endpoints.

**Steps to reproduce**

Run the deterministic timing tests. Use the acknowledgement interval
`(1901, 2427] ms` with `<= 2000 ms`. Compare the late reply interval
`(52965, 53334] ms` with `<= 30000 ms`. The first is inconclusive. The
second fails.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The source includes master at
`14afc12124017d4ec30d0f4bfd6892f8ce475d21`.

Related PR:
[#13710](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/13710) changed
chat latency and session reuse. This change corrects probe evidence and
report verdicts.

## What Changed

- Add a shared interval classifier with explicit endpoint and target
operators.
- Start observation before dispatch. Use a monotonic clock. Bound
asynchronous reads by request start and completion.
- Measure the first visible response separately from message creation
and final settlement. Share browser reads with an optional
acknowledgement probe.
- Keep raw bounds, clock resolution, message metadata, failed reads, and
original verdicts in retained report evidence.
- Add deterministic coverage for threshold equality, missing data,
edited messages, asynchronous reads, teardown, report correction, and a
finite-domain oracle.
- Bound observer shutdown to one second across pending and final reads.
Retain timeout counts. Ignore late completions and start no more reads
after shutdown.
- Document the timing contract in the existing Product E2E guide.
- Keep current startup reuse evidence after the master merge. Update
four stale test expectations for qualified Copilot admission. Keep the
explicit suite and provider restrictions.

## Verification

- Current head: `c42e87e6d3b4b347e7cb176f56819c1d0abe106d`.
- Passed: `pnpm test:e2e:runner:unit` (3,287 Vitest tests and 128 native
completion tests; two explicit skips).
- Passed: `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck`, `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm
build`, `pnpm check:token-gates`, and `git diff origin/master --check`.
- Passed: [exact-head
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39607140418),
including both required checks (`ci / verify` and `ci / e2e`), all
general and serialized test jobs, all eight browser shards, build,
canary dry run, and the clean public npm-install smoke.
- Greptile reviewed the complete current diff and returned [5/5 with no
actionable
issues](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/16829#issuecomment-6266704814).
All review threads are resolved.
- The redundant local `pnpm test:run` was stopped after the exact-head
CI test jobs passed. It did not produce a complete local verdict; the
full repository test evidence is the CI run above.
- The [earlier broad
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39249282597)
failed on the old head. Its full test command timed out after 15
minutes. Five E2E support failures came from ambient `NODE_PATH` and a
missing historical Git object. Current master supplies the
closed-environment launcher and retained source fixture. The full
support suite passes with these fixes.
- After the current master merge, four stale Copilot assertions and the
nested unit launcher failed. Copilot is now qualified. Those assertions
now require no qualification override and retain the rejected
suite/provider cases. The full documented unit command passes.
- The first local typecheck after the merge used stale generated package
declarations and failed. The typechecks pass after `pnpm build`.
- These checks use synthetic timing evidence. They make no live provider
calls and claim no new live latency measurement.

## Risks

- The browser diagnostic depends on the existing message and receipt DOM
markers. Controlled tests cover visibility, receipt separation,
concurrent reads, and teardown.
- Corrected timing verdicts can become inconclusive. The report keeps
the original verdict and does not change the overall workflow grade.
- This change adds no database migration or product surface.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-6 Codex. Model family: GPT-6. This session does not expose
a more specific model ID or context window size. The agent used
reasoning, shell tools, code inspection, and deterministic tests. The
earlier implementation session did not retain its exact model ID.

DottaandPaperclip f89c37791c Add campaign sidebar and case navigation to runner E2E reports (#17010)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Product E2E campaigns test runner behavior across agent profiles and
environments.
> - The retained reports contain many suites, cases, and execution
previews.
> - A long report makes it hard to find a case or return to the campaign
context.
> - This pull request adds campaign navigation, case breadcrumbs, and
separate global history pages.
> - Users can scan all execution previews or inspect one case without
losing their place.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Navigation in the retained Runner E2E campaign reports and history
homepage.

**Subsystem affected**

Test report infrastructure in `tests/runner-e2e/`.

**Current behavior**

Reports show a long configuration matrix. The suite index and campaign
history share the same page. Case links do not provide a focused
inspection view.

**Proposed behavior**

Global overview, history, and attention pages show global navigation. A
specific campaign adds a folding suite tree. All results keeps the full
scrollable report. A case opens with breadcrumbs and an execution
picker.

**Reason and benefit**

Users can find a case, compare its executions, and return to their
reading position. Global pages do not show suites from an unrelated
campaign.

**Breaking changes**

The report HTML layout changes. Retained result schemas, execution
identities, and suite and execution anchors remain unchanged.

**Additional context**

Refs: #16996. This extends the merged report navigation and local
preview work. The duplicate PR and issue search found no open PR for
this change.

## What Changed

- Add shared report navigation with the Paperclip brand mark and
wordmark.
- Scope the suite tree to the current campaign. Keep global overview,
history, and attention pages separate.
- Group all execution previews by suite and case. Reuse the existing
evidence cards and image gallery.
- Add focused case inspection, configuration selection, breadcrumbs,
filter handling, and scroll restoration.
- Move historical trends to the global history page. Keep billing
details, missing results, and failure evidence available.
- Update report documentation and browser regressions for filters,
status dots, configuration reloads, breadcrumbs, and scroll restoration.

## Verification

- [Final
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39500401411)
passes on `89a8b5c290de3cfb9bdc061be3c88a29fd160a62`. Typecheck, build,
runner checks, server suites, and all browser shards pass.
- All four report browser regressions pass. They cover filters, gallery
navigation, repeated suite jumps, the folding sidebar, breadcrumbs,
scroll restoration, configuration selection and reload, mobile
navigation, and aggregate case status.
- The 63 report, history, preview-boundary, and navigation tests pass.
Runner E2E typecheck passes with `node node_modules/typescript/bin/tsc
-p tests/runner-e2e/tsconfig.json`.
- Manual browser checks covered desktop and a 390-pixel viewport.
Retained campaigns covered 209 executions in eight suites, 179
executions in seven suites, and 15 executions in one suite. Browser
fixture checks also confirmed filtered inspection and aggregate status.
No paid evaluations ran.
- The initial report browser tests still targeted the old layout and
routes. They were updated for the new navigation. Review also exposed
filtered-inspection and aggregate-status defects; both were fixed before
the final passing browser run.
- The unchanged Cases UI grouping test [failed once on the final
head](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39500401411/job/118898559197).
Its full file also failed locally, while the isolated test passed. The
same UI code passed in earlier CI. A [single CI
retry](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39500401411/job/118903333430)
passed all 3,978 UI tests and 286 CLI tests without code changes. The
cause remains unresolved.
- Two jobs on an intermediate head were interrupted by runner shutdown
signals. Those remain interrupted results. The complete final-head CI
run supersedes them for merge verification.
- Workspace `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` also passed locally
before the rebase. The full local `pnpm test:run` attempt encountered
repeated embedded PostgreSQL startup failures and was stopped. It is not
a passing local full-suite result; final CI provides the full
verification.

## Risks

- Navigation and hash handling can select the wrong case or hide
results. Focused tests and browser checks cover these paths.
- Historical campaign links must resolve from both the preview and
published report locations.
- The report layout changes. Graders, prompts, retained outcomes, and
billing calculations do not change.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex with `gpt-6-astra` and `gpt-6.1-sol`. Used reasoning,
repository tools, code execution, and browser verification. The runtime
did not expose a context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip 2b16262280 Improve runner E2E report navigation and local previews (#16996)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app that people use to manage AI agents
for work.
> - Product E2E campaigns check user journeys across agent profiles and
environments.
> - Readers use the campaign history and reports to inspect results and
retained evidence.
> - The reports showed image summaries, many unselected suites, and a
long sticky index.
> - Individual case cards also showed routine diagnostics before the
visual evidence.
> - This pull request adds text summaries, feature filters, folding case
indexes, and simpler cards.
> - A local preview uses retained public data so designers can change
reports without another paid campaign.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Current behavior**

The report is hard to scan as the journey catalog grows. Suite links can
point into hidden results. Case indexes do not show whether a case
passed across its configurations. Design changes also need a realistic
local preview.

**Proposed behavior**

Show the selected campaign as text. Link journeys to current feature-map
capabilities. Add folding case indexes with status indicators, reliable
section links, and a back-to-top control. Keep failed outcomes visible
and put routine diagnostics under Test details. Render retained public
campaign data with local templates.

**Reason and benefit**

Readers can find a feature or failed case faster. Designers can iterate
against real retained data without starting an application instance or
using provider credentials.

**Breaking changes**

No result schema or grading change. The report stops embedding the
generated summary PNG. The publisher still produces that artifact for
existing consumers.

Related work: #12889 added the existing matrix browser. #12846 concerns
the public image publication boundary. This PR changes report
presentation and local preview behavior.

## What Changed

- Replace image summaries with shared HTML suite summaries on the
history and campaign pages.
- Show selected executions and preserve missing results for selected
cells.
- Add explicit journey-to-capability associations, feature filters, and
a coverage view with unmapped journeys.
- Add folding case indexes, section case lists, and red, green, or amber
status indicators across matching configurations.
- Fix anchor navigation through filters and add a floating back-to-top
control.
- Simplify case cards. Keep failure reasons visible. Fold routine
checks, billing, and context into Test details.
- Add an original-image link to the gallery.
- Add a local preview utility with public data caching and offline mode.
Document the direct Node command.
- Test manifest-listed evidence, rejection of unlisted files and encoded
traversal, cache reuse, and offline misses with a real loopback server
and a stub downloader.

## Verification

- Focused report, history, and preview tests: 75 passed in 6 files.
- Report Playwright spec: 4 passed in Chrome with a standalone config
that does not start the application server.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs`: passed.
- `git diff --check`: passed.
- Manually checked retained campaign reports, feature filters, folding
indexes, failure links, card details, gallery links, mobile layout, and
keyboard navigation.
- `pnpm build`: passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck`: passed.
- `pnpm test:run`: stopped after 15 native session database cases
failed. The local Postgres package first lacked dynamic-library links.
After link hydration, the same cases still failed. A direct `initdb`
check then reported `could not create semaphores: No space left on
device` and identified the macOS semaphore limit. The complete local
suite has not passed.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:unit`: 3,250 passed, 6 failed, 2 skipped. All
six failures reproduced against unchanged `origin/master` report sources
with the same installed dependencies. They concern Copilot admission and
its Daytona image input, plus the launcher test that runs those
assertions. No report or history test failed.
- No live provider evaluation was run for this presentation change.
- CI on `b1a9c06823` first failed browser shard 3/8. The agent-chat
split-handoff test reached cleanup, where cancelling a run returned HTTP
500 from a Postgres deadlock. Cleanup did not restore the experiment
setting, and a later test failed its initial setting check. This shard
does not contain the report spec. One targeted rerun passed, and that
full workflow then passed. This shows recovery; no production fix was
made for the deadlock. The later preview-test commit requires its own
fresh checks.

To review the design, run `node --watch --import
./cli/node_modules/tsx/dist/loader.mjs tests/runner-e2e/preview.ts`.
Open the history address printed by the command, then open a campaign.
The README covers offline mode and cache refresh.

## Risks

- Feature associations use the current map. They describe linked
scenarios, not proof that a whole capability is covered. Historical
grades remain unchanged.
- New or unfamiliar cases remain unmapped until their assertions are
inspected.
- The preview needs the public history host on first access. Offline
mode requires cached files. It binds to the loopback interface and
serves manifest-listed public evidence.
- Hiding routine diagnostics adds one disclosure step. Failed or
incomplete outcomes remain visible.

This is report polish. It does not duplicate planned core work in
`ROADMAP.md`.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, tool use, code execution,
and browser automation. The exact serving model ID and context window
are not exposed in this session.

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 7c247243e5 Qualify and package Copilot for ordinary installations (#15706)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A provider must work through normal installed packages on local and
Daytona environments.
> - Candidate-only success does not prove that the shipped package
contains the manifest and native runtime needed for Daytona.
> - The release must preserve saved-token access and task lifecycle
guarantees.
> - This pull request will qualify Copilot and include the exact-source
remote manifest in normal release archives.
> - The benefit is a reviewable part of the Copilot production release.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15701, #15703 and #15705. Supersedes qualification work in #15563
and the original candidate in #14434. Base: #15705.

## What Changed

- Keep Copilot discovery passive during reconnect reconciliation;
refresh on explicit opening, account/environment changes and reconnect.

- Retain the selected Product cases, permission/continuity evidence and
cleanup checks.
- Build the Linux provider manifest from the existing pinned Docker
stage in the cloud.
- Join all four native daemon receipts with that manifest before server
packing.
- Reject missing or incompatible remote authority during normal release
assembly; retain historical workflow compatibility.
- Promote the completed profile47 qualification marker, publish the
current qualification record and preserve every failed attempt.
- Keep one current release checklist and the shipped-canary gates
explicit.

## Verification

Runtime #15701 is merged at `d855e550ad8d2a267312983f26457aabf5393c3a`.
History #15703 is merged at `df80616d98119cbf5abd40549794d9980a5fabf6`.

[`42bcbd61299655f7e37aabe6bb5f19bba770ad1d`](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/commit/42bcbd61299655f7e37aabe6bb5f19bba770ad1d)
contains the four-file authorization repair. The remaining PR trees
preserve six nonoverlapping files from the newer public mainline
managed-settings fix and the CI-owned lockfile. No unrelated provider is
enabled.

The security finding is repaired: existing-agent discovery requires
`agent_config:update` before connection selection or token resolution.
The saved environment is the default. Authorized editors can select a
prospective environment. Both denied board-viewer and agent-reader
regressions fail on the original source. All49 route tests and server
typecheck pass with the fix. Denied requests perform no connection
selection, credential resolution or probe. Current-head security scans
pass on both remaining PRs; the repaired thread is resolved.

Copilot CLI1.0.88 and profile47 retain digest
`sha256:55044aa235e88b3fe36ec8a556ee1e3382590870aab907e4462ef7d64af49cea`.

reports20/20 Product cells,154 assertions and7/7 protocol cases,46
assertions against frozen normal installed source
`c2616370800f5f6df45246b0890ba35a7cd2faab`. The exact qualification
model is `gpt-5.6-luna`. Every passing Product case confirms cleanup.
Original failures remain recorded; automatic behavior retries are
disabled. The route-only authorization repair changes no bound
runtime/profile bytes and does not relabel the frozen campaign.

The ordinary installed remote journey passed saved-token selection,
model discovery, normal UI save/reopen, metadata-only Test, completed
task, accepted receipt and exact19-byte browser download. An open model
catalog caused no additional discovery requests during117seconds. Actual
installed runtime smokes passed on macOS ARM64, macOS x64 under Rosetta
and native Linux x64 on Daytona. Raw token browser entry was not
exercised; encrypted connection creation used the normal API.

The first Daytona file attempt timed out during delayed semantic
dispatch; its precise stalled layer remains unresolved. Independent
ordinary remote delivery and the other19 Product cells passed before one
instrumented recheck passed8/8 with unchanged source,prompt,assertions
and deadlines. No causal latency repair is claimed.

Before the authorization repair, all four final PR heads passed required
verify/E2E and fresh Greptile5/5 reviews with zero unresolved threads.
Current-head CI/review is running for the two repaired heads. Local
focused checks retain129 connection,59 runner,72 shared-eval and88
recovery/workspace passes, plus migration safety and token gates. The
additive Copilot migration is361; released master history is preserved.

[Cloud normal-package
run39414239704](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39414239704)
builds the pre-security source4f3f. All four native producers and Linux
package assembly pass; the final clean installed consumers are
finishing. All18 retained archives match their hashes;37,863 regular
files contain zero selected credentials. That package does not contain
the later route repair. The actual final published package must include
it and pass the local/Daytona live canaries. The frozen Daytona image
remains published and independently verified. No separate full-image
scan is claimed. Docker builds run in the cloud.

**Remaining:** current-head CI/review, setup and qualification merges,
final publication, and ordinary local/Daytona canaries against the
actual shipped package. The user explicitly authorizes the maintainer
review override; CI remains a merge gate. No production deployment is
claimed. Provider USD remains unknown and GitHub-attributed.

## Risks

An omitted or mismatched image manifest prevents ordinary Daytona
startup. Final normal archives must contain the matching image authority
and platform daemons. The completed runtime campaign remains bound to
its original source; the final UI-only repair needs its own
normal-install setup proof. Credit notices are not measured USD
receipts. Native steering, native plan mode and detached work remain
outside this release.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6. The exact serving model ID and context
window are not exposed in this task. Used for code changes, review and
tool-assisted verification.

b448710986 fix: derive startup warmth from per-layer reuse evidence (#16908)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip helps people manage AI agents and inspect their work.
> - Agent startup can reuse a lease, workspace, Runner, process, or
session.
> - A session ID can remain the same when other resources are new.
> - The old cold/warm label did not show these separate decisions.
> - This pull request records closed reuse receipts and derives labels
from them.
> - Reports now show partial reuse and missing evidence.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #11685. That issue tracks a specific ACPX fingerprint repair. This
change records reuse evidence across startup resources. It does not
repeat that repair.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Startup labels in the operator trace and Product E2E reports.

**Current behavior**

A cached runtime or a continuous session can suggest a warm startup even
when workspace staging or provider launch work occurs.

**Proposed behavior**

Record each layer's reuse decision and a closed reason. Record observed
provider launch counts. Use `warm`, `cold`, `partial_reuse`, or
`unknown` from those receipts. Keep old runs unknown when they have no
receipts.

## What Changed

- Add local run-log receipts for the lease, workspace, Runner, provider
process, and provider session.
- Count physical ACPX launches, including respawns. Preserve the reason
for a new process.
- Reuse native workspace adoption and session lifecycle evidence. Keep
native and bridged remote provider-process reuse and launch counts
unknown where physical evidence is absent.
- Show the per-run summary in retained results and the dashboard. Keep
missing legacy values explicit.
- Set the legacy trace boolean only for fully evidenced cold or warm
startup. Keep the operator OTLP gate. Add no first-party Telemetry.
- Test full reuse, workspace invalidation, two direct provider launches
with session continuity, and report generation.
- Start the final diagnostic write without waiting for persistence. Keep
lease cleanup independent of a stalled event sink.
- Keep remote provider evidence unknown after runtime setup fails or the
host relay starts twice.
- Align a stale Pi support-test expectation with current master profile
28 and its suite fingerprint. Keep the qualification rules unchanged.

## Verification

- Passed: all 319 runtime, startup-timing, reuse-summary, and native
workspace-history tests. Disposable local Git tests used the native Git
binary.
- Passed on the current commit: all 2,768 Runner E2E support tests
across 128 files. This includes report and history tests for generated
HTML and normalized JSON.
- Passed: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils typecheck`.
- Passed on `df60f8dbdbfcb6d80c84cd3bf563f8d58b2f9f03`: all PR CI gates,
including repository typecheck and build, all test shards, and browser
tests. Both automated reviews are 5/5. GitHub reports 55 successful
checks, one neutral review, and two skipped Storybook checks.
- The first server shard run failed because an unchanged
workspace-runtime fixture did not accept health connections within 10
seconds. Its isolated local test and the single failed-jobs rerun both
pass. This establishes recovery; the cause of the first timeout remains
unknown.
- Passed in the hosted source run on this exact commit: recursive
typecheck, token gates, the large Runner E2E typecheck, Runner E2E unit
tests, and build. The retained `source.txt` matches this PR head.
- The extra unsharded `pnpm test:run` reached its 60-minute limit (exit
124). It has no complete verdict. The broad workflow therefore reports
failure. No assertion-failure marker appears in the retained partial
log. Full-suite acceptance uses the passing canonical PR CI partitions.
A read-only inventory check found no gaps across 1,023 general server
files, 161 serialized suites, and 20 workspace projects. The separate
chat/native Runner lanes cover the excluded server files. No tests or
timeouts were weakened. The local environment has 4 GiB of memory. Use
CI for the large Runner E2E typecheck.
- The initial report tests failed because the harness could not resolve
package imports from the repository root. Relative source imports fixed
that failure.
- The first broad local run had timeouts from the environment Git
bridge. Native Git resolves the ancestry timeout and all runtime tests
pass. The added report fixture lacked its required screenshot; the
corrected report tests pass. A stale master assertion expected Pi
profile 27, while the generated profile is 28. Updated its expectation
and exact suite fingerprint; all 78 targeted support tests pass. The
clean full support run passes all 2,768 tests.
- The three review regression cases failed before repair. They showed
remote counts of zero and two, and a completed run that waited for the
final diagnostic sink. They now pass. The stalled-sink case keeps
persistence pending while the run returns, both bridge stops run once,
and the staging lock map becomes empty.
- Hosted evidence for this commit: [source
verification](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39335475416),
[retained command logs and status
table](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39335475416/artifacts/12228829282).
All listed commands exited zero except the incomplete unsharded test
command described above.
- The physical-launch test drives the executor's spawn callback twice.
The native workspace test uses real Git repositories and verifies reuse
and invalidation. These are deterministic tests, not a paid provider
qualification campaign.

## Risks

- Consumers must handle `partial_reuse` and `unknown`. Partial evidence
no longer produces a legacy cold/warm boolean.
- Native and remote bridged provider process evidence is still
unavailable on some paths. The report shows unknown values for those
paths.
- Receipt emission is best effort. Missing receipts reduce confidence in
a label and must not change execution or settlement.
- No schema migration, first-party Telemetry event, or endpoint default
changes are included.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, used reasoning, repository tools, and code
execution. The exact provider model ID and context window are not
exposed to this session. The existing implementation checkpoint was
preserved from the earlier agent run.

DottaandPaperclip 45b67f1d93 feat: default new Apple Silicon Claude agents to Paperclip Runner (#15993)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets users choose an agent harness and account.
> - The server resolves the runner for new agents.
> - Claude still needs the same ordinary native-default journey as
Codex.
> - Existing agents must retain their runner, model and account.
> - This PR defaults new Apple Silicon Claude agents to Paperclip Runner
with Opus 5.5.
> - Users can connect and work without a runner override.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15683. This PR depends on #15994 and precedes #15997. Related
scope: #15422, #13978 and #15224.

## What Changed

- Resolve new Apple Silicon Claude agents to `paperclip_runner`,
`provider: acpx`, `acpxAgent: claude`. Keep explicit Legacy, models,
provider routing and saved execution.
- Use `claude-opus-5-5` for ordinary Claude defaults and retain explicit
overrides.
- Reuse existing API-key/subscription connections, credential storage
and checks. Generalize the shared Advanced runner control with Claude
branding.
- Carry configured effort into the shared v9 contract. Preserve
compatible permissions, instructions, skills, timeouts and session
behavior. Require Legacy for unsupported settings.
- Qualify a new immutable managed Claude target at explicit Connect
through the existing permission-gated probe. Use fresh scoped discovery
for test and hire. Discard stale results and require an explicit Connect
after settings change.
- Retain merged Codex onboarding recovery, auth preparation,
import/effort corrections and Grok Bot gates.
- Check the Claude first-task wizard's saved default directly. Update
configuration/runtime documentation and exact Opus 5.5 accounting.

- Align hire fixtures with the merged host-environment restriction.
Native agent-authenticated hires cannot inject host env settings; both
creation endpoints verify that no extra agent is saved.

## Verification

- Updated onto master `9179d8dcc3e908c217fde4f63c9d08ccf8132eeb` through
#15994. Native input v9 carries effort while preserving v7 home modes
and v8 Muse. Codex defaults remain unchanged.
- Focused local verification passed 285 server tests, 323 UI tests, 124
setup/registry tests, and two v9 permission-pin transport cases. Direct
server/UI TypeScript checks passed. An initial 30-second hook timeout
was resolved by serial verification with a longer hook budget: all 122
credential/permission cases and 232 snapshot/environment cases pass.
Direct server TypeScript checking also passes.
- Ordinary web creation with the experiment disabled saved native
Claude, Opus 5.5 and High effort without runner/model overrides. The
actual product task and follow-up both succeeded on integrated source
`b2c9fe43f9cd3bc5dd9d22552da0148845ba71a4` with the cloud-built daemon
from `04e0202ca81387b17cbe7fd094a8338648356fe9`. The final master
reconciliation also changes shared runtime source. Historical proof
retains its source identity; a final-source cloud qualification is
running before refreshing the preview daemon.
- Both actual browser downloads were checked: v1 has three sections/six
checkboxes (451 bytes); v2 preserves the original body and adds two
Rollback checks (612 bytes). The original attachment stayed
byte-identical. The follow-up records session resume and the same
provider session. Total estimated API usage: $0.518432800, with no
pending/unpriced usage in the successful fixture.
- Fixed the live-discovered setup incompatibility: native API-key
validation no longer depends on the global Legacy Claude CLI. The
existing provider endpoint verifies the key without a paid prompt;
subscription/custom routing probes remain intact.
- Fixed security review's native-hire credential redirection:
agent-supplied URLs, proxy/launch settings and other host environment
controls are rejected before inheritance. Native credential references
remain supported and partial edits use the saved harness. Added
create/hire/update regression coverage.
- Current-head cloud CI is green. All three stack PRs have fresh
Greptile 5/5 reviews and zero unresolved review threads. Required
typecheck, test and build gates ran in cloud CI; Docker work stayed
remote. Earlier failed checks remain in their original runs.
- Docker and native release builds ran in cloud infrastructure. An
inadvertent local Rust prerequisite was stopped; no local Docker build
was run.

- The final master merge preserves task-loading, permission,
skill-retention and OpenRouter changes. Pi uses a fresh combined profile
27, preserving both historical profile-24 declarations; Copilot remains
profile 22. Focused protocol checks passed 155 cases (one skipped), the
updated Pi attestation check passed 18 (one skipped), and 91
evaluation/catalog checks passed.

- Latest-application manual continuation passed in 37.942 seconds on
`695e5c005a85bddc8711d3fcddcaf6b7e1fb64d0`, with High effort, native
Opus 5.5, Anthropic API attribution, the same resumed Claude session, an
independently checked 635-byte file and persisted Done status. It uses
the earlier verified Mac daemon; the preceding-source package
qualification passed at `dca62c7aeb4b45f0dd91a8e18d386a16a2658ef8`. That
package run predates the small TypeScript startup fix and is not
relabeled as qualification for it.
- Upgrade limitation: changed compiled sidecar identity rejected old
durable launch state and recovery hit session-open bounds before
eventually resuming. That attempt was operator-cancelled and retained;
the successful manual continuation does not qualify seamless upgrades.

- Local latency profile, Opus 5.5/High unchanged: three alternating
real-ACP loopback samples per variant reduce median provider-ready time
from 5.081s to 4.034s. The matched real API task startup improves from
5.533s to 4.348s, but total reply time changes from 17.933s to 20.221s
because agent work varies. This establishes a startup saving of about
one second, not a consistent total-reply speedup. A real candidate
follow-up passed in 20.146s and resumed the same saved session. The
loopback fixture makes no external model requests; failed initial probes
remain retained.
- The startup change passes 107 focused runtime/effort/lease tests, 53
profile checks (one skipped), TypeScript checking and the
TypeScript-only runtime build. Native hire fixture checks pass 70 tests;
their first local run retained a socket-hangup failure and stale
OpenCode expectation, both accounted for before the passing rerun.
Broader required checks run in cloud CI.

## Risks

- Missing packages, authentication rejection, unsupported settings and
unavailable models must fail explicitly. Existing agents retain saved
execution; explicit runner changes use existing revision/session
invalidation.
- Subscription follow-up remains unverified; remaining live acceptance
uses API keys per human steering. Historical accounting holds and the
separate $50 ceiling remain intact.
- The subscription acceptance limit remains explicit for review. No
Claude database migration is introduced.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution and browser testing. The exact serving model ID and
context-window size are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip adb69e8f09 feat: default new Codex agents to Paperclip Runner on Linux and macOS (#15683)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source control plane for agent companies.
> - People choose a harness when creating an agent.
> - The server should resolve that harness to a qualified runner.
> - Codex is the first harness in the staged default rollout.
> - Saved agents must retain their execution choices.
> - New Codex agents therefore use Paperclip Runner on qualified
macOS/Linux targets, with an explicit Legacy override.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #16028, #15555, #15673, #15422, #15631, #15926, #15932, #16149.

The runtime/install prerequisite and release repair are merged. This
slice owns Codex creation, setup, configuration and preservation. Other
harness defaults remain unchanged. It adds no database migration;
incoming master migrations, required maps and regression coverage are
retained.

## What Changed

- Resolve `runner: auto | paperclip | legacy` at the common creation
boundary across onboarding, API/CLI, hires, built-ins, plugins and
imports. Freeze pending hires and export resolved execution choices.
- Preserve existing runners on upgrades, unrelated edits and import
updates, including compatible accounts, workspace settings, Codex effort
and intentional clears.
- Use the underlying harness picker and branding; put the runner
override in Advanced. Use the shared dropdown and update
production-component stories and creation contracts.
- Support qualified Apple Silicon, Intel Mac, Linux x64 and Linux ARM64.
Linux requires GNU libc 2.39+. Disabled, external, unsupported and
unqualified combinations retain their applicable Legacy execution.
- Test the selected runtime/account/model/environment. Ordinary Connect
probes eligible immutable managed targets and refreshes scoped
discovery. Creation/discovery do not provision. Auth, dependency,
incompatible-setting and cleanup failures remain actionable without
changing runners.
- Keep setup probes read-only, preserve local/SSH isolation and resolve
packaged assets before staging credentials. Bound cleanup reads by the
remaining absolute deadline; physically close every owned ingress socket
before endpoint release. Unconfirmed cleanup retains recovery state.
- Preserve validated completed-onboarding callbacks through startup
recovery. First file-producing work belongs to the child task and uses
the existing dependency/block handoff and task-scoped registration.
- Reuse existing E2E fixtures, artifact checks, reporting and controls.
Keep Docker/Cargo/native compilation remote. Paperclip tarballs contain
no Codex payloads; official optional npm platform dependencies remain.

## Verification

Current tested head: `1c03a8815672d82c264a9b08d4ea1984e8fae107`.
**Merge-ready: required CI, fresh review, package qualification, Mac
core acceptance and Test task/follow-up acceptance pass.** The existing
attachment and native-continuity oracles independently verify both Test
downloads, run attribution and unchanged native/provider/workspace
identities. The maintainer authorized a code-owner-review exception for
this PR only. The first Test setup failure and normal Board
completion-review friction are retained below. Actual post-merge
packages and private Cloud distribution remain separate qualification
gates.

- [Current
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38564241625):
all 48 ordinary jobs and required verify/E2E pass. Attempt 1 retained
six simultaneous host-shutdown cancellations. One failed-only retry
passes those six lanes and two aggregates, preserving 40 successes.
Actual integration checkout `53104c1` combines this head with master
`c80`; it is not relabeled as the branch tree. Fresh exact-head Greptile
5/5, 30 resolved threads, no actionable findings.
- [Exact-source package
qualification](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38565287239):
nine applicable jobs pass, nine conditional jobs skip. Four remote
native producers; Linux x64 clean install; Intel Mac, Apple Silicon and
Linux ARM64 native startup/physical cleanup controls. All 18
tarballs/four daemon source/hash/manifest bindings and 343 migrations
through 0344 verify. No Codex payload is packed. These hosted tarballs
are not a published npm canary.
- Normal Apple Silicon installation and credential-free native
startup/cleanup pass using the packaged daemon, with no source build or
provider turn. Fresh installed DB initialization passes. Upgrade
651a→1c03 preserves all three complete execution configs, accounts, ten
recorded run profiles, paused budgets, active incidents, cost summaries
and two historical unpriced events. Historical recovery state is
retained.
- Cleanup regressions: four delayed-read baseline failures become 15
passing deadline/authority controls. No-acknowledgement and prior-error
socket ownership regressions become 12 passing controls. Direct
runtime/server types, maps: 35 areas / 176 IDs, diff checks and
independent reviews pass. Permission/auth/reconnect policy and the
10-second setup budget remain intact.
- Existing source coverage includes creation/selection/imports, pending
approvals, recovery, account/lifecycle handling, mounted forms,
dropdowns and E2E support. Full typechecks/tests/build/token and
applicable Storybook checks pass in the recorded current CI; no
duplicate suite or weakened grader.
- Literal 9546 live Mac proof: ordinary Auto Codex onboarding, useful
document, real completed-child callback/reply, seven successful native
runs, manual follow-up and independently downloaded1,101-byte child
file. Existing Legacy title edit/reload preserves execution; two real
Legacy runs produce independently checked15/34-byte files. These remain
historical source records.
- Current literal 1c03 Mac core acceptance passes independent checks:
ordinary Auto native Codex onboarding without runner override; only
timeout 180 seconds/concurrency 1 saved; six successful native runs and
six serialized turns (maximum overlap 1); both same-task continuity
checks and five mechanical callback checks; actual rendered parent reply
and exact child downloads. The useful handoff advances from revision 1
to 2. Both files are 48 bytes, SHA-256
`8b742bd4e8123a7c078f0a8d9f3449fbfa8a320d7d90be641a2818db3c53d92c` and
`f42db9774fa06e804ab7d596fc8b922a2b638921c418b87d0111151d290a6afe`;
exactly one byte changes and old history remains. The agent is paused
with zero active runs/errors. Both artifact work products have
`isPrimary=false`, and descriptive titles fail a stricter title-helper
assumption; these retained results are scoped editorial follow-up, not
new merge gates. Six source-bound screenshots are uploaded and verified
in the private primary QA report.
- [Literal 9546 managed
proof](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-38485488621-1/index.html):
original 19 assertions and completed judge pass, four native turns,
child-bound240-byte file and session/workspace continuity. Checkout
reports a verified generated target-lock mutation; full final porcelain
was not retained. Signed execution-image identity remains separate from
Core source.
- Actual 651a Test deployment succeeds on one owned/pinned target. One
ordinary Auto API-key Connect then fails native cleanup before hire.
Controller turn/drain/suspend completion and service-recorded
environment cleanup are observed; they do not certify physical deletion
or native authority retirement. Failure/recovery/unknown holds are
retained. No Legacy switch or unchanged paid retry. The two source
repairs above require actual treatment.
- [Current immutable Core
preview](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38570365725)
and matching DB/shared artifacts pass. One owned, pinned Test target
serves exact `1c03`; identical migration history correctly skips the
migrator. Ordinary Auto Codex Connect succeeds and hires native; saved
native selection and QA bounds survive reload. The initial child
preparation attempt fails before provider work, with actual stdout
identifying `renewal_deadline`; its trigger remains unknown and the
failure is retained. Normal Board **Try again** and **Resume** recover
the child to Done, producing a browser-verified 44-byte file, SHA-256
`0a8458b1efcc2d7a0d815689458c4caab039a46c7c7a3e5805de6bc8b1a96ecc`. The
actual parent callback reports the completed child document/file. The
existing validator requires a parent-owned attachment, so recovery
enters normal Review; after byte checking, normal **Approve completion**
reaches parent Done. No forced status or duplicate parent file is used.
The validator is unchanged from integrated and current master.
Autonomous initial callback-to-Done is not proven. The same-child
follow-up completes document revision 2 and publishes a second
independently downloaded 44-byte file, SHA-256
`22022257300fae762784632d08d3bbe0bab61e2ce81f91864a14dcd7aa464591`; only
the revision digit changes. The unchanged existing native-continuity and
attachment oracles pass. All ten recorded runs are terminal: nine native
successes and the retained pre-provider setup failure. The QA agent is
paused with zero active runs. The pre-existing parent evidence scope
mismatch is a separate follow-up, with ordinary completion review
exercised rather than a forced status or relaxed validation. This
unsigned Core preview remains distinct from post-merge private Cloud
composition.

## Risks

- Saved agents are not migrated. Explicit runner changes use normal
configuration/session rules; historical runs retain their recorded
execution.
- Native readiness depends on verified assets and server-owned target
qualification. A Legacy probe, HTTP200 or successful account save cannot
prove native readiness.
- Recovery exceptions remain restricted to validated
completed-onboarding reports; process-loss, ownership and terminal-state
safeguards remain active. Unexecuted live journeys stay open.
- Linux ARM paid tasks, Windows, Alpine and 32-bit ARM remain deferred.
Cold Cargo cache misses are recorded; no warm-cache speedup is claimed.
- Historical invoices/physical cleanup remain unconfirmed and held.
After merge, exact published npm canary, signed standard image/migrator,
private composition and serving/live acceptance still require
qualification. Production deployment/default promotion is not
authorized.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, tools, code execution and
parallel agents. Exact serving snapshot and context-window size are not
exposed.

Dotta a9830414c7 Preserve repository dependencies when importing GitHub skills (#15731)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Its Skills library imports reusable instructions from GitHub.
> - Some skills depend on shared files and sibling skills outside their
folders.
> - Directory-only imports lose those dependencies.
> - This pull request keeps repository files together and lets users
select which skills appear in the library.
> - Agents receive the original files and paths through the existing
skill delivery system.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14713. Related: #13656.

**Current behavior**

GitHub imports copy independent skill directories. Shared scripts,
policies, helper skills, and credit files can be omitted. One
shared-file error can block every skill.

**Proposed behavior**

New imports keep repository files together at the scanned commit. Show
all skills with their folders and select every skill by default.
Collapse individual package files. Omit unsupported or oversized files
with a warning. Import available content without repair choices or an
extra confirmation. Keep warnings on the saved source.

**Reason and benefit**

Skills can read their shared repository files after Paperclip delivers
them to an agent. Original instructions stay unchanged. Users can
inspect included files and understand omissions before and after import.

## What Changed

- Store immutable company-scoped repository snapshots and associate them
with skill versions. Regenerate the migration after merging master.
- Preserve original bytes, binary encoding, and executable modes.
Shared-file changes version each usable selected skill. Pinned versions
retain their original files.
- Deliver a discovery wrapper with the original tree under
`.paperclip-repository/`. Preserve invocation policy when present. Fork
and create-from-existing retain repository files.
- Keep repository files together for new UI imports. Show every skill,
select all by default, and collapse package files. Remove the
packaging-mode menu. Keep the mobile import footer visible.
- Warn about symlinks, submodules, oversized files, missing references,
and invalid optional manifests. A malformed skill remains selected with
a Needs setup warning. Usable skills still publish, and its original
file remains repository support content. Source warnings persist through
refresh. Unsafe execution and secret-disclosure findings omit the
affected files before snapshot publication.
- Expose saved repository files in the installed skill viewer, including
binary encoding and executable flags. Reads use the immutable
company-scoped snapshot; relative instruction links resolve from their
original repository directory.
- Audit delivered inventories and derive trust from all repository
files. Accept evaluation prose while retaining dynamic-execution
findings. Read blobs in one bounded Git batch and check budgets before
reading support files. Imports never execute setup commands.
- Add scanner, database, delivery, UI, and browser regressions. Update
Storybooks, screenshots, and documentation.

## Verification

- 69 focused scanner, Git snapshot, delivery, and PostgreSQL lifecycle
tests passed. They cover partial imports, warning persistence, missing
references, binary files, executable modes, copies, pinned versions,
cancellation, company isolation, and batched Git reads.
- 110 import, skill-detail, selection-tree, saved-file link, and
Markdown renderer tests passed. A file-switch regression failed before
the resolver fix and passed afterward. Browser walkthroughs cover the
all-selected open tree, repository preview, non-blocking warnings,
missing references, setup problems, warning persistence, and mobile
layout.
- Full workspace typecheck and build passed. Runner E2E TypeScript
checks and design-token gates passed. The full serial local suite was
attempted and stopped after over an hour. The existing 40,000-file Git
streaming stress test failed after 303 seconds on macOS; the broad local
suite is not counted as passed. All 55 applicable PR checks passed on
the final commit, including the full sharded CI suite. Two optional
Storybook workflows were skipped; the five local Storybook walkthroughs
passed.
- On October 12, live campaigns imported the private Poteto repository
through the production GitHub Sources UI, selected architect and bro,
and invoked them with native Codex on local and Daytona. The source
connection was disabled before invocation. Independent filesystem
inspections matched every supported Git blob, size, and executable mode.
Both tasks completed and cleanup passed. Campaigns:
`local-2026-10-12T15-07-39-504Z` (both environments),
`local-2026-10-12T16-08-39-682Z` (local), and
`local-2026-10-12T16-03-33-938Z` (Daytona). Each of the two selected
skills received all 234 supported repository files. Later changes only
affect the installed-file viewer and documentation. This qualifies skill
delivery and instruction reads, not every Poteto workflow or adapter.
- A manual source-checkout test drive imported a synthetic private
GitHub repository with a symlink, an oversized file, a missing
reference, and malformed skill metadata. Available skills published with
their shared checklist. The walkthrough found duplicate warning text
after import; the final UI fix removes that duplicate. The file viewer
exposes saved repository dependencies and resolves authored relative
links without changing the instructions. A follow-up live refresh
omitted unsafe helper files with warnings, preserved every safe file
byte, and survived a server restart.

Screenshots below use the production UI with Storybook fixtures. They do
not replace the live GitHub and runtime checks.

## Risks

- Each selected skill carries a repository copy in the runtime. The
database stores each snapshot once. Runtime transfer and storage
increase with the number of assigned skills.
- Runtime budgets remain: 9,990 repository entries, 1 MiB per file, and
61 MiB total. File omissions are recorded as warnings. Source-access or
download failures retain installed versions.
- Import success does not prove that every skill can run. Environment
dependencies, credentials, delegation tools, and schedules still need
configuration. Imported setup scripts are not executed.
- Live runtime coverage is native Codex on local and Daytona. Other
adapters use the shared delivery path but were not exercised in these
campaigns.

The roadmap marks Skills Manager as shipped. This extends the existing
importer. Related pull requests were checked.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with repository inspection, code
execution, automated tests, and browser tools. The exact deployment
identifier and context-window size were not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 57e977be72 feat: integrate Pi 1.0 into the experimental Runner (#14921)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - The experimental Runner owns provider processes and durable
sessions.
> - Pi needs working task execution and human controls.
> - The five-PR stack must preserve changes already on master.
> - Each layer now carries the complete integrated source for a safe
sequential fallback.
> - This PR belongs to native GitHub stack #15602, ending at #14956.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14436, #14631, #14743 and #14956.

Ship Pi 1.0 through the experimental Paperclip Runner. The five PRs are
#14921, #14922, #14923, #14924 and #14956. The user authorized the
complete merge after checks pass. Existing `pi_local` execution is
unchanged. Accounting and wider provider/platform qualification remain
deferred.

## What Changed

- Recover missing final replies after workspace finalization changes
owners, using accepted-turn evidence without rerunning work or granting
external-chat publication.
- Preserve the admitted Pi instruction root across warm runs, while
retaining changed-root rejection.
- Give Pi a bounded 15-second default shutdown grace so stop, drain
acknowledgement and durable suspension can complete. Explicit deadlines
and other providers retain their existing behavior.
- Integrate the Pi 1.0 runtime and master contracts.
- Use Pi profile 22. Preserve explicit caller-selected models and exact
native thinking levels. Keep Pi's wrapper, helper, extension and
question/control behavior unchanged from the qualified profile-19
runtime.
- Preserve master's Dot lifecycle and consent fields, configured task
environment, status guards and current Codex/Claude dependency versions.
Cursor stays qualified. Copilot stays pending; profile 17 binds the
changed shared protocol validation sources.
- Exclude general AWS IAM credentials from Pi static/custom provider
bindings and selected task projections; preserve the provider-scoped
Bedrock bearer key. Profile 21 is retained as historical provenance.
Rust and cloud install probes use the current declaration.
- Patch bundled brace-expansion 5.0.9 to the exact official 5.0.12
payload. Pin the patch and complete runtime closures. Include the patch
in normal installed setup tooling. Keep the upstream Pi shrinkwrap as
provenance and permit only this exact security correction.
- Include current attestation files in the Docker build context. Keep
the repository lockfile unchanged from master. CI and private image
builds resolve manifest changes before their frozen installation.

## Verification

- Full local `pnpm -r typecheck` passes, including Runner Rust, server
and UI. Focused integration checks pass: 194 Runner
admission/environment tests, 63 profile/credential tests with one
expected skip, 152 Dot/UI configuration tests, and Pi transcript/notice
tests.
- Full local `pnpm build` passes on the final source.
- Fresh final-source checks pass: all 698 Rust workspace tests (32
binaries), 156 credential/profile/controller tests with one expected
skip, Runner TypeScript typecheck, and 20 package/setup/sandbox tests.
- The profile-21 Pi materializer passes on the native host with the
official pinned Node 24.21.0 and its npm. It verifies all 150 locked
packages, the patched dependency and the exact closure. Setup/package
bundle tests and UI token gates pass.
- The old hashes were reproduced for all three supported targets before
calculating the patched graph. New closure hashes are darwin-arm64
`282022db10150c6632b3444df421342e7d534bdf5d5fb1097a2e79d0625a2bcf`,
darwin-x64

Independent native platform execution is separate from graph identity
reproduction.
- Historical cloud qualification remains unchanged: all seven core cases
pass on shipping source `10dc43c9ec65d88c2f782d62afb296d09494f215`,

- Merge only after every PR's current-head CI and fresh review pass.
Linux CI covers the full suites, build and browser tests. The local
embedded Postgres API-authority suite cannot start on this macOS/Node 26
host, so Linux CI must confirm that suite.

### Fresh profile-22 core qualification — 2026-10-08

All seven accepted core cases pass canonically on Pi profile 22, with
`openrouter/anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6` and native-confirmed low
thinking. This model is a fixture; production accepts the caller's
explicit Pi provider/model.

Runtime/install source: `3241a992f2a7703e59e97ed0fd3e5d6405de4401`.
Frozen accepted harness: `1a4408a48cfb5a1f094a311141c257c92cd7a893`.
Immutable cloud image:

[Hosted Linux image and clean-install
verification](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37868328023)
passes, including all 20 source-bound archives, normal CLI/Pi setup,
companion import and the production pack reader. This exact installation
source includes the latest master integration and the corrected Pi warm
instruction-root fence. Full local typecheck/build and current-head
hosted CI verify the final stack. All 13 focused real-root regressions
pass. The full local executor suite passed 662 tests; 15 database tests
could not start the Mac embedded PostgreSQL service. Hosted Linux CI
passes the full required verification and E2E checks. These fresh
results keep their own source identity; profile-19 results remain
historical.

All 215 canonical files (28714587 bytes) are independently
hash-verified. All seven cleanup grades pass, with no owned runtime
process or temporary root after each case. Automatic retries are zero.
The owned cloud host stopped normally after retention. The prior
profile-22 warm attempt remains failed and separately retained: archive
SHA-256
`1e54eba5ec72b50cee1534b23d1d1d4f21a090006b8a64501ba70db972abfde5`. Its
original canonical classification is preserved. Diagnosis reproduced a
product bug comparing an agent-files root against an unset
checkpoint-only field. The fix stores the admitted physical root
separately from the adopted per-run collection capability. The real-root
regression fails before the fix and passes afterward, including
rejection of a changed physical root. Fixture, grader, model and all
seven accepted case IDs are unchanged; this fresh campaign tests
final-reply publication after file registration first. The intermediate
restart attempt also remains failed and retained: archive SHA-256
`5dcaefdf1d17cf4cd54fd4cf810f45e736667392339b8ce7caf08bb4e225277f`. Its
original canonical classification is preserved. Pi resumed, wrote the
verified answer and completed its task; exact runner suspension was
proven, but idle stop consumed about 5.2s and left under 3s for the
drain acknowledgement. The Pi-only default shutdown grace is now 15s,
preserving a full 5s drain round trip and a finite suspension reserve.
Explicit caller deadlines, other provider defaults, literal drain
receipts and exact suspension identity checks remain unchanged. The
timing regression fails before this correction and passes afterward; all
18 focused settlement tests and Runner typecheck pass. The final-source
file attempt is also preserved as failed (`candidate_failure`), archive
SHA-256
`db6767b6773ea618997927ac77bdb005a5ac81492c7b9c0ffbc900449f829bc9`.
Native edit, validation, exact downloadable artifact and Done/succeeded
all passed, and the exact final reply was durably recorded. A workspace
recovery owner completed before the live heartbeat reached presentation,
leaving that reply absent from task chat. Recovery now materializes only
a completed final reply from the accepted turn of an ordinary internal
Done task, preserving issue/run/contract binding, suppression,
external-chat authorization and same-run deduplication. The database
regression covers the generated file-preparation receipt, suppression,
unapproved external continuation and replay. Server typecheck and all 49
response-selection tests pass; hosted Linux verifies the database
regression because embedded PostgreSQL cannot start on this Mac.

The delayed-final-answer database regression passes on [the final
root-source Linux server
shard](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37868262553/job/113628594152),
alongside 1,108 passing tests. The first root Runner shard had one
unchanged durable-resume test exceed its 5-second timeout; the identical
top-source shard and the isolated exact test passed. One rerun of that
failed job and its required aggregate passed without source or test
changes. The original failed job log and the single-rerun receipt remain
retained.

### October 9 merge verification

Current merge head: `5a8fe63512a7166aaef5cf50065a25008aa8b44b`. All
current-head checks pass, including `ci / verify` and `ci / e2e`;
exact-head Greptile review is 5/5 with no unresolved threads. Current
master conflicts are resolved. The user authorized the maintainer
override of the code-owner review gate after these checks. The seven
retained live core cases remain bound to source
`3241a992f2a7703e59e97ed0fd3e5d6405de4401` and its recorded cloud image.

## Risks

- The security correction changes the dependency closure and profile
identity. Old sessions must reopen on the new profile. Exact identities
and credential bindings fail closed.
- The runner remains experimental and requires explicit selection.
Legacy Pi Local is unchanged. Caller model IDs pass through; the E2E
model is a fixture.
- Accounting and the broad platform/provider matrix remain deferred.
This merge does not publish a release or deploy a service.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex assisted with reasoning, repository
inspection, editing and tool use. The exact serving ID and context
window are not exposed in this session. Final live qualification uses Pi
1.0.0 with `openrouter/anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6` and native-confirmed
low thinking.

DottaandPaperclip 428b617fc9 test(evals): qualify native question resume paths (#15616)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets agents pause tasks for human answers and continue the
work.
> - Native questions can yield a run or pause inside the provider's
running turn.
> - Those paths have different run identities and different forms.
> - The documentation-placement test requires a semantic three-turn
journey.
> - A valid provider question therefore needs separate behavioral
qualification.
> - This pull request adds an opt-in two-answer journey with exact
source and resume checks.
> - Qualification exposed a Vite startup crash in idle-handler
traversal, so the branch also distinguishes Connect mount paths from
Express Route objects.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Product E2E evaluation of native task questions and answer delivery.

**Current behavior**

The semantic documentation case rejects the provider adapter's optional
Other field before answering. Its three-run expectation also cannot
prove a provider question that resumes within the same run.

**Proposed behavior**

Keep that semantic test intact. Add a separate opt-in case that
classifies each recorded question by authoritative identities. Accept
the optional Other field only for a verified provider question. Require
both user answers, the correct continuation, and one saved final
document.

Related: #15564 added strict lifecycle checks. #15522 introduced
idle-request tracking; this PR corrects its Connect/Vite compatibility
after reproducing the startup crash. #14591 changes ACP question drafts
and provider support; this PR has no overlapping files with that change.

## What Changed

- Add the explicit-only `question-resume` suite for native Codex and
ACPX Claude. Reuse the existing neutral choice-then-text task request.
- Bind each question to its company, task, agent and run. Require an
applied semantic tool receipt or the exact provider request identity.
- Require a provider answer to continue the same run. Require a semantic
answer to start one new run with the matching interaction and source-run
wake fields.
- Preserve question forms and both real board answers through the final
checkpoint. Reject missing inputs, duplicate answers, extra runs and
substituted identities.
- Keep the existing lifecycle, output, task ownership and budget checks.
Limit the new case to one attempt and one to three runs.
- Add mutation calibrations and document the separate qualification
claims. Keep production guidance, scheduling, provider code and the
historical semantic case unchanged.
- Fix startup with Vite middleware: treat Connect string mount paths
separately from Express Route objects when traversing idle-request
handlers. A real-Vite regression verifies startup and retained async
work through an idle hold.

## Verification

- 81 focused continuation, question and calibration tests passed before
review. After the reference-preservation correction, all 50
question/resume tests pass, including two new negative cases that failed
against the previous grader.
- Final eval support suite passes: 1,921 Vitest tests and 128 Node
tests, with one intentional skip.
- Eval and workspace typechecks pass. Workspace build passes.
- Catalog discovery finds only the two declared opt-in cells. Existing
continuation remains 23 cells; default paid scope is unchanged.
- Original [campaign
37831726391](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37831726391),
source `1ac4b2873466896ff2892f49be82904927b6c57d`, failed during server
startup before any test or provider run. Its original
`transient_infrastructure` result and `cleanup: not_started` are
preserved. Local reproduction identifies the Connect string route
traversal crash; the question grader was never reached.
- Setup-corrected [campaign
37833872898](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37833872898)
measures source `9781a772389d41421df55759004676e1b905e512` with trusted
workflow `8e59efc50b162126f33816841e06509634eba65c`. The workflow bytes
are unchanged from the first dispatch. Same single selected native
Claude cell, one attempt, at most three runs, ten-minute cell deadline,
and 1,000-cent company/agent hard stops. Original result **PASS**, 24/24
checks and cleanup pass. Exactly three successful native Claude runs:
two applied Paperclip `request_human_input` questions and one finishing
run. Both real board answers persist, exact interaction/source-run
response wakes match, one revision-1 task document contains Afternoon
and the supplied reference, and final task state is done with no active
lock, retry, recovery, monitor, pending interaction or child task. No
model retry.
- Current review head `3c08cb7d26e7f9ac16469eeb07d1f31d828ec02e` differs
from the measured source only in the question/resume grader and its
tests (11 insertions, 3 deletions). The saved document must contain the
complete submitted reference, including its prefix and punctuation.
Separate provider-free replay of the retained successful campaign passes
all 24 continuation/lifecycle checks under this stricter grader. The
original result and its measured source remain unchanged; no new
provider run was made.
- Observed paths were **semantic → semantic**. The provider built-in
question/optional Other path was not exercised by this new live attempt.
Its form acceptance has retained-original calibration; same-run
answer/resume has deterministic positive/negative calibration. This
neutral-task pass alone does not qualify the provider path; the
subsequent explicit bridge trial below is separate evidence. Neither
trial regrades the old Claude failure or establishes a causal
behavior/performance comparison.
- Subsequent explicit provider-path [campaign
37841107684](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37841107684)
measures the final PR source `3c08cb7d26e7f9ac16469eeb07d1f31d828ec02e`,
using trusted workflow `2a5f65c9ae501b49b2a38ce7edd04209b806c9d0`. Exact
cell: `continuation.runner-acpx-claude.local.provider-question-bridge`,
Claude `claude-sonnet-5`, suite fingerprint
`fc77203bf85fd99b06ebc53cd52982186c0ae0dc369fcc38a9ec3c737e9a31e5`.
**Original PASS, 15/15 checks, cleanup passed, one actual provider run
and zero eval rerolls.** The built-in question produced one choice plus
its optional Other companion. The browser selected the requested
reference, left Other blank, and submitted. Exact runtime
request/response IDs and the selected option match the saved
interaction; the same paused native run created one revision-1 document
and finished Done with no pending interaction, lock, retry, recovery,
monitor or child task. Independent evidence and runtime-receipt audits
pass; marked initial/final screenshots were visually checked. [Original
public
report](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-37841107684-1/index.html).
- This separate provider-directed trial qualifies one choice-answer
bridge and traversal of an empty optional Other field. It does not
establish natural tool selection, a typed Other answer, two consecutive
built-in questions, free-text-only input, restart recovery or general
reliability. No production, prompt or grader change was made for this
dispatch. The old failure and the separate neutral semantic-path result
retain their original grades.
- Preserve within-run friction: one `write_task_document` input-schema
rejection and two HTTP 409 “Document does not exist yet” responses
preceded a successful `write_document` call. These are three
unsuccessful tool calls inside the same run, not three extra provider
runs; no flawless document-tool behavior is claimed. Billing reports
token usage but remains unpriced/incomplete, so actual charges are
unknown and local/hosted runtime is unmetered. Both company and agent
hard stops were 1,000 cents, with one attempt, one selected cell,
concurrency one and a ten-minute cell deadline.
- Billing records all three model runs with token usage, but no priced
dollar receipt (`unpriced`, `complete: false`). Actual charges are
unknown; local/hosted runtime is unmetered. Numeric zero reported cost
does not mean free.
- Startup repair: real-Vite reproduction passes; 35 targeted
idle-tracking tests pass, 34 database-dependent checks skip because
embedded PostgreSQL is unavailable locally. Workspace typecheck and
build pass again after the repair.
- Full local repository database tests were not repeated because
embedded PostgreSQL was unavailable in the preceding workspace
verification. Full Linux CI now passes on the final review head.

- Final-head [CI run
37837804284](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37837804284)
passes. Complete current-head audit: 53 successful check-runs, two
intentional Storybook skips, and separate Snyk success. The ready
transition’s contributor and security checks also pass (security scan:
no findings). [Fresh
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/15616#issuecomment-6068092601)
is 5/5 on `3c08cb7d26e7f9ac16469eeb07d1f31d828ec02e`; zero unresolved
threads and no merge conflicts.

## Risks

This is a new behavioral definition. The neutral two-question trial
records semantic-tool use; the separate provider-directed trial records
one built-in question. They do not establish consistent tool selection,
documentation placement, default hiring, remote environments, crash
recovery or general reliability. The separate explicit bridge trial
covers one provider choice, an empty optional Other companion and
same-run completion. Typed Other, two consecutive built-in questions and
free-text-only provider input remain unqualified. The observed
document-tool schema rejection and two 409 responses are retained as a
separate follow-up, without attributing their cause. The historical case
and its original grades remain intact. The reference question must still
be text-only; the oracle does not turn an arbitrary extra question into
an optional companion. Missing or unfamiliar identity evidence fails
closed. The only production change distinguishes Connect string mount
paths from Express route objects during idle-handler traversal. Unknown
route objects still fail closed. No API, schema, migration or workflow
change is included.

DottaandPaperclip 24a15c5afa test(evals): verify durable waiting across continuation checkpoints (#15564)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and durable tasks across provider runs.
> - Human questions must preserve task ownership and stop work until a
real answer arrives.
> - The continuation eval checks the final work, but its lifecycle
oracle misses several broken waiting states.
> - A correct final answer can hide a stale execution lock or a lost
intermediate answer receipt.
> - This pull request checks each wait and retains every question and
run identity.
> - A source audit records which waiting operations belong to native
runtimes and which still require legacy API calls.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The existing Product E2E continuation oracle for human question and
approval journeys.

**Current behavior**

A pending interaction can pass the waiting check even when its task has
the wrong status, a stale lock, or a retry. Only the first pending
question and first run receipts are checked at the final checkpoint.

**Proposed behavior**

Require a healthy wait on the same task and assignee. Preserve all
intermediate run receipts and every pending question's answered
identity. Allow a paused native provider question only when its pending
runtime request identifies the running native run and execution lock.

Related: #15548 and #15554 cover earlier bookkeeping slices. #15544
changes production continuation summaries; this PR changes the eval
oracle and does not overlap that fix.

## What Changed

- Check waiting state, execution ownership, and all answer/run
identities in the existing lifecycle oracle.
- Add negative calibrations for broken records and positive coverage for
both semantic waits and paused provider questions.
- Retain task activity at each checkpoint for inspection of successful
persisted mutations.
- Verify 1,000-cent company and agent budget limits before continuation
work. Disable automatic cell rerolls.
- Document runtime ownership, existing coverage, and the remaining
instruction decision. Keep production instructions unchanged.

## Verification

- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:unit`: 1,867 Vitest tests pass, one skips; 128
Node tests pass.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck`: passes.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passes.
- `pnpm build`: passes.
- Negative calibration: 27 added cases fail against the prior oracle and
pass with these checks.
- Four existing local continuation cells are selected for a separate
bounded live canary. Live results are pending; no behavioral pass is
claimed here.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` suite was not repeated because embedded
PostgreSQL was unavailable in the preceding workspace verification.
Required Linux PR CI must pass before readiness.

## Risks

The stronger oracle can expose existing product or fixture defects. A
paused provider question and a terminal semantic wait have distinct
valid states. The four-cell canary does not qualify approval/review,
dependency unblock, crash races, remote execution, or general task
quality. Task activity records successful persisted writes, not failed
API attempts; repeated progress comments are not automatically defects.
Historical eval grades remain unchanged. No production scheduling,
prompt, tool, schema or migration changes.

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
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 caf120105c test: prepare neutral native connection guidance evals (#15407)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents need to discover connections, obtain consent, and continue
from saved decisions.
> - We want to reduce repeated instructions only when measured behavior
supports the change.
> - The existing decline tasks tell the model not to retry. One
provider-decline check can pass without an explanation or an observed
service counter.
> - This PR adds neutral tasks and stricter saved-evidence checks before
any connection instruction reduction.
> - Production instructions remain unchanged. The new cells are
configured, not live-qualified.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15218. Refs #15389.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The Product E2E connection workflow evaluation and its instruction
measurement provenance.

**Current behavior**

Some decline prompts supply the policy they intend to test. The
provider-decline workflow does not require a saved post-decision
explanation. Its old no-call check can use a missing fixture counter as
zero. OpenCode has no connection cases in the original Everyday matrix.

**Proposed behavior**

Add an explicit-only suite with five connection stories on native Codex,
ACPX Claude, and OpenCode. Require an explanation attributed by exact
run ID after a saved decline. Observe the provider fixture counter.
Preserve the original cases and grades.

## What Changed

- Add fifteen configured cells with one attempt, twelve-minute
deadlines, and verified 1,000-cent company and agent budget stops.
- Remove procedure hints from the three new decline prompts. Keep a
user-permitted explanation fallback and the existing positive controls.
- Require saved decline state, one decision, unchanged connections,
observed zero service calls where applicable, and a post-decision
explanation from a successful run on the same task.
- Add negative grader calibration and test the actual fixture budget
payloads. Exclude the suite from default and generic selection.
- Extend the existing full-catalog measurement source manifest with
connection descriptions and schemas. Add an audit of fixed text, tool
descriptions, returned instructions, and unqualified behavior.
- Rebase on master `a6306ba606eb87c89b9ef0344e9fe8e0025580f9` and
preserve its new Cursor suites. No production, credential, workflow, or
lockfile change.

## Verification

- Before rebase: Product E2E support passed 1,424 TypeScript tests and
128 Node checks. Six catalog measurement tests, repository
typecheck/build, Product E2E typecheck, and exact fifteen-cell discovery
passed.
- The full pre-rebase repository test run was stopped when master
advanced. Its partial result is not a pass.
- After rebase and the review correction: repository build/typecheck,
Product E2E typecheck, 1,799 TypeScript support tests (one skipped), 128
Node checks, six measurement tests, and exact fifteen-cell discovery
pass. The duplicate local full-suite run was stopped incomplete after
about 20 minutes once complete CI passed; no local full-suite pass is
claimed.
- Review found that the initial grader read `runId` instead of public
`createdByRunId`. A regression calibration reproduced both rejection of
valid public comments and acceptance of the wrong alias. The fix uses
the actual field and binds the evidence type to the shared
`IssueComment` contract. A subsequent type-only import path correction
passes Product E2E typecheck.
- Final source `0de306b9664bfbdebb6709ddb54c95152740d1ad` passes
[complete
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37560250545):
51 successful checks and two intentional Storybook skips, plus separate
Snyk success. Fresh Greptile review is 5/5 with the single review thread
resolved and no new findings. The PR is clean and mergeable.
- Local commands: `pnpm build`, `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm
test:e2e:runner:unit`, `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck`, and `pnpm
test:e2e:runner -- --list --suite native-connection-guidance`. The
measurement uses
`PAPERCLIP_NATIVE_PROCEDURE_MEASUREMENT=/tmp/connection-measurement.json
pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/server
server/src/__tests__/native-procedure-measurement.test.ts`. Validation
used pinned pnpm 9.15.4.
- No paid provider campaign was started. There is no baseline/candidate
behavior result for these new cells.
- The audit records 654 UTF-8 bytes of fixed connection guidance. A
clean capture at `a04b8c6a452315625014888335d45670a2094fb6` confirms 41
supplied tools, 53,341 normalized bytes at start/resume, 50,949 at
compact continuation, and a 48,195-byte authenticated OpenCode MCP
catalog. These are byte counts, not tokens, bills, vendor-private prompt
sizes, or savings from this PR.

## Risks

- This is eval preparation. Passing support tests do not establish live
model behavior or qualify an instruction reduction.
- The explanation oracle checks attributed saved output. It does not
prove cognition or arbitrary prose truthfulness. One saved interaction
also does not prove the absence of repeated idempotent tool calls.
- Successful new authentication and tool refresh, existing-connection
agent grants, independent work while waiting, explicit retry after
decline, and blocking when mandatory work remains still need separate
coverage.
- Notion setup decline does not execute a real Notion service. Positive
service approval uses an already installed deterministic service; it
does not qualify new connection creation.
- The original historical failures remain unchanged. Future comparisons
must freeze source, fixture, model, input, and grading controls and
retain every actual attempt.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, and code
execution. The exact serving model ID and context-window size were not
exposed in this session; they are not inferred. No model provider was
invoked by the eval suite in this PR preparation.

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 e38d6d16b6 feat(connections): add advanced provider setup and live browser qualification (#15341)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Users connect accounts and choose an agent harness and model.
> - The runtime change in #14970 supports custom providers on those
connections.
> - Normal setup must stay simple while advanced users can choose a
compatible gateway.
> - Shared connector rows and access controls keep these choices
consistent.
> - This pull request refines the agent setup UI and adds review stories
and repeatable browser qualification.
> - The qualification checks real tools and downloaded outputs, not only
a successful run status.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14970, #37, #13083, #14104, #14565, #12692.

The core implementation in #14970 is merged. This branch incorporates
its squash commit and targets `master`. Both PRs contain our
implementation. #14016 is a reference only and is not a dependency. This
PR has 96 changed files.

## What Changed

- Complete model-provider connector presentation beside other
connectors. Each row uses the existing Connect action and connection
list. Tags are stored without category UI. The base PR includes the
provider forms and routes.
- Show persistent Subscription, API Key, and Advanced choices. Label
Advanced as Custom Gateway. Reuse provider logos, connection lists, and
permissions controls. Default access to the organization and all agents
when permitted; keep narrowing controls under Advanced.
- Keep Configure reachable before subscription sign-in, so users can
select a supported environment when the default cannot sign in. Testing
and saving still require a connection. Show the execution environment in
Configure. Preserve the confirmed Connect choice. Editing a method,
credential, saved account, or advanced choice requires that current
choice to connect before testing or saving. Use matching model and
thinking-effort dropdowns and retain connection icons in selected
values.
- Preserve the new harness model default when switching an existing
OpenCode agent to Codex or Claude, and resolve user-selected model names
with the effective harness.
- Load popular OpenRouter models through the shared connection-model
discovery path. Keep explicit model lists and manual model entry
available.
- Group onboarding, connection setup, agent runtime, management,
recovery, and production-component stories under AI Connections /
Provider routing.
- Add an explicit-only provider-connections browser suite for managed
local or existing local/staging targets. Use private browser profiles
and credential handoffs. Support human-assisted subscription sign-in
without sharing passwords or tokens in reports.
- Verify persisted connection identity, runtime probes, tool execution,
exact artifact bytes, completion, and context-dependent follow-up.
Retain source/model provenance, cost bounds, closed error diagnostics,
original failures, and cleanup evidence.
- Add Gemini startup-model and skill-root fixes, Grok private-history
detection, ACP filesystem regression fixtures, selected-workspace
handling for local Hermes, and artifact-helper workspace fallback.
- Keep managed Grok runtime homes disposable. Remove host-side
transcript retention/restoration because private file modes do not
isolate same-user agent processes. Ignore earlier development archives
and use a fresh task handoff when history is unavailable. Verify the
absence of restored transcripts with a separate same-user process.
- Capture stopped-run diagnostics before deleting an attached-company
fixture agent. Track creation and owned sign-in receipts; revoke only
this attempt's accounts and never adopt a concurrent campaign's newly
created account. Preserve failure signals and final status through
cleanup.
- Require the requested environment in the saved agent and every run,
including follow-ups. Reject a forced incompatible target. Keep one
cancellation state through startup, every cell, reporting, and teardown
for SIGINT, SIGTERM, and SIGHUP. Stop further paid cells after
interruption. Document qualification limits.

## Verification

- Current head `b3bb3e94d577d43d9965a6b9daba039f599b2e49` includes
master `d9f600043`. The security fix in `a758fde31` passes full
workspace typecheck, production build, and 119 connection/Grok
regressions. The unchanged UI passes all 126
configuration/model-discovery tests and token gates. The final
published-guide correction passes Grok adapter typecheck. Earlier head
`eebd8225c` passed the complete deterministic runner suite (1,404 Vitest
tests and 128 Node tests) and all CI jobs. Current-head CI run
`37520147514` passed all 47 jobs, including the full sharded Vitest and
browser matrix, production build, and canary dry run. All 55 checks
completed: 53 successes and two expected skips. The current-head
security scan passed, Greptile is 5/5, and no review threads remain
open.
- A separate same-user process reproduced reading a restored Grok
transcript before the security fix. The regression now finds no
transcript. Existing fresh-session fallback and ordinary session
metadata behavior pass.
- The final account-choice and cleanup fixes pass 85 setup tests and 26
qualification-harness tests. Regressions verify that editing a
connection invalidates confirmation, Configure remains reachable before
sign-in, diagnostics are captured before fixture deletion, and
concurrent campaigns cannot adopt or revoke each other's accounts. UI
and E2E typechecks pass.
- The Storybook build and actual Chromium production-component stories
passed during this change. Review the neighboring AI Connections /
Provider routing stories, regular connector rows, three connection
modes, model discovery, and the single execution-environment control in
Configure.
- Cancellation smoke verified authenticated cleanup before browser close
for SIGINT, SIGTERM, and SIGHUP. Regressions cover interruption during
startup and reporting, missing-file ACP resource errors, and preserved
permission denials. Both ACP runtime versions and 54 ACPX/Grok
regressions passed. The deterministic connection-intent browser suite
passed two tests.
- Historical local qualification retained 43 passing API/gateway cells
out of 46, with downloaded outputs and follow-up receipts. These
attempts span earlier builds; they do not qualify this exact commit or
staging. Subscription combinations, Gemini overloads, and the unresolved
follow-up failure remain recorded rather than counted as passing.
- Use `pnpm test:e2e:runner -- --list --suite provider-connections` to
inspect the matrix. Follow `tests/runner-e2e/PROVIDER-CONNECTIONS.md`
for credentials, target URL, sign-in assistance, budget, evidence, and
cleanup. Paid live tests remain opt-in.

## Risks

- The core implementation in #14970 is merged. This PR adds no database
migration of its own.
- Subscription login needs an interactive provider session. Dedicated
accounts and staging qualification remain follow-up work; this PR does
not certify every login combination for production.
- Managed Grok transcript resume is deferred until provider history has
an OS isolation or authorized broker solution. Follow-ups start fresh
with Paperclip task context; earlier live Grok results do not qualify
this behavior.
- Gemini CLI 0.58.0 has an upstream ACP new-file error conversion
defect. Live overloads and one unresolved follow-up timeout remain
recorded. The stock CLI is unchanged, and those cases are not marked as
passing.
- Real-provider tests spend credits and use private credential/evidence
directories. The launcher requires explicit selection and checks target
ownership. It must not attach to a developer's database by accident.
- OpenClaw Gateway, Hermes Gateway, Claude Managed, AWS AgentCore,
Process, HTTP, and legacy ACPX local remain outside custom provider
setup.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and browser testing. The exact deployment model ID and
context window size were not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip e34abee670 feat(mcp): connect assistants to a team with user OAuth (#14846)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip gives teams durable tasks, agent execution, budgets, and
approvals.
> - People also use assistants in Codex, Claude, and other MCP clients.
> - Those assistants need a scoped connection that preserves the
person’s permissions and attribution.
> - Delegating a task must not turn the assistant into the assigned
agent.
> - This PR adds opt-in user OAuth, ten first-party tools, browser
consent, and workflow packages.
> - Paid product evals verify the resulting tasks, documents,
attribution, retries, and access boundaries.
> - The team keeps working after the assistant conversation ends.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

A person cannot connect an external assistant to an existing team
through browser consent and safely delegate durable work as themselves.

**Proposed solution**

Expose an opt-in `/mcp/paperclip` endpoint with individually described
first-party operations. Bind every connection to a person, client,
company, resource, and scopes. Reuse domain authorization and
scheduling. Package shared team-review, delegation, and follow-up
workflows for OpenAI/Codex and Claude.

**Alternatives considered**

Related PRs #9393 and #12549 cover earlier remote MCP and board-operator
approaches. This change uses user OAuth and a bounded public catalog. It
does not expose a generic executor, operator administration, static
shared board credentials, or external agent execution. Registry listing
work in #9851 is a separate distribution step.

**Roadmap alignment**

This maintainer-requested implementation extends the governed MCP
gateway, activity attribution, durable work products, and hosted
deployment direction in `ROADMAP.md`. It implements the first release of
the saved design plan; external agent participation and granted
third-party tools remain later releases.

## What Changed

- Add MCP 2.0 discovery and task status/comment/document Events on the
same authenticated endpoint. Persist subscriptions and delivery
receipts, verify HTTPS callbacks, sign Standard Webhooks, encrypt
callback material, recheck permissions/Cloud membership, and bound
retries/expiry. Older MCP clients keep their existing tools.
- Add discovery, dynamic client registration, S256 PKCE, resource
validation, rotating refresh tokens, revocation, and company consent.
Store credentials as hashes and recheck membership at execution.
- Add tools for connection identity, agents/projects, task
search/read/create, human comments, documents/deliverables, and
pending-approval links. Preserve current domain permissions and
scheduling.
- Add durable mutation receipts across reconnects. Matching retries
replay results; uncertain outcomes keep the same request ID and require
inspection.
- Add consent and connection-management pages, OAuth log redaction,
shared plugin workflows, and separate OpenAI/Codex and Claude package
outputs.
- Add eight paid Product E2E cases across three models, independent
durable-state grading, usage evidence, cleanup, and report integration.
Add task-document guidance and regenerate the runner capability
inventories.
- Add migrations 0301 and 0302, the dated implementation plan, result
notes, and direct-client setup instructions in `doc/public-mcp.md`.

## Verification

- Merge integration `e180b1948`: resolved conflicts with current master,
preserved both eval registries, regenerated capability catalogs, and
regenerated migrations as 0301/0302 while keeping the original
replay-safe SQL byte-identical. Local migration safety/snapshot tests
(26), MCP/OAuth tests (38), redaction/OpenAPI tests (71), and eval
catalog/grading tests (198) pass. Token and capability gates pass. Full
recursive typecheck passed. Fresh Greptile review is 5/5 with no
unresolved findings. CI is green on this exact head (55 successes, two
intentional skips, one neutral result): one unchanged Cursor sandbox
test timed out at 10 seconds, then passed locally in 856 ms. A single
retry of that failed shard and the aggregate workflow passed. Merge
remains blocked on the repository code-owner approval rule.

Earlier checks passed at `6aa0962d4fb715f2190bb7bb22efacab2e58495d`: 55
successes, two intentional skips and one neutral result. [The earlier CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36901592350)
includes all test shards, browser tests, typecheck, build and canary dry
run. Greptile was 5/5 on that commit with no unresolved review threads.
GitHub still requires code-owner review under the repository merge
rules; passing checks do not bypass that approval. Paid source
fingerprints remain separate below and in the dated result note.

- Paid Events qualification passes **3/3**: GPT-5.4 Mini, Claude Haiku
4.5 and Claude Sonnet 4.6. Each uses a real public HTTPS callback,
signature verification and report retrieval in a fresh conversation. A
final Mini regression passes after the quota/status fixes. All evidence
validates. Bounded tunnel startup retries occur before provider calls
and remain visible; failed earlier attempts retain their original
grades.
- The earlier complete seven-case matrix passes **21/21**, with a
separate **3/3** delegation regression. Two preceding matrices also
passed 21/21 each. A complete 24-cell matrix including Events has not
been run. [The dated
results](doc/plans/2026-10-01-public-mcp-paid-eval-results.md) retain
exact source fingerprints, failures, model IDs and partial costs.
- Node 24: repository-wide `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass
after merging master. Server typecheck passes after the final
quota/status changes. Eval typecheck and all 892 eval-support tests
pass.
- All 33 real MCP/OAuth tests pass. The preceding combined MCP,
redaction, private-address and DNS-rebinding run passed 129 tests; two
later MCP regressions cover quota reuse and unchanged-status
suppression. All 28 adjacent issue-tree/stale-lock route tests pass. CI
then found a null checkout result in the existing concurrent-workspace
path; logging now uses optional status access. All 12 closed-workspace
tests and all 33 MCP tests pass after that correction. The exact-start
event calibration exposed a timestamp gap; scanning now includes the
subscription start, with all 33 MCP tests and server typecheck passing.
These two narrow corrections follow the paid regression.
- A real Core → Cloud → Core authority round trip passes OAuth, MCP 2.0
subscription/delivery, current membership loss, unsubscribe, legacy SDK
tools, refresh and revocation. Its callback transport is a fixture with
independent HMAC verification. The paid Events campaigns separately
prove public HTTPS delivery.
- Earlier component qualification passed UI 7,117 tests, CLI 502, shared
832, skills catalog 20, database 160 and OpenAPI 10. Token gates, module
boundaries, migration order and plugin regeneration passed. CI covers
general/serialized suites, eight browser shards, runner checks,
typecheck, build and canary dry run.
- **Local full-suite limitation:** the earlier monolithic run was not
clean. It encountered overlapping schema rebuilding, Mac database
shared-memory limits and isolated CLI/fixture failures. Targeted reruns
passed. The existing >32 MiB Git filename stress test still hit its
300-second Mac timeout. The additional serialized sweep stopped after 62
passing suites once CI passed. Original failures and partial logs
remain; this PR does not claim a wholly green local monolithic run.
- Local Codex CLI and Claude Code OAuth login and MCP SDK
interoperability were verified. Public-store installation, actual
ChatGPT Work Cloud Events UI, staging HTTPS client behavior and hosted
newcomer provisioning remain release gates.

Enablement is moving to **Settings → Experimental → Assistant
connections (MCP)** in the stacked follow-up
[#14933](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/14933). Merge
both for the intended setup experience. This foundation branch alone
still uses `PAPERCLIP_PUBLIC_MCP_ENABLED=true`. After deployment, set
`PAPERCLIP_PUBLIC_URL` to the authenticated instance's HTTPS origin, and
connect to `/mcp/paperclip`. Select a team and allow writes in browser
consent. Configure an available agent and budget, then delegate and
retrieve results later. For Events, rescan the deployed plugin catalog
in ChatGPT Work Cloud; the host supplies its webhook credentials when
the user asks to watch a task. See [the setup
runbook](doc/public-mcp.md).

## Risks

- Events are at-least-once and may arrive out of order. No replay cursor
is advertised. Clients must refresh finite subscriptions, read current
state and avoid comment feedback loops. Callback material uses the
instance secrets master key; hosted subscriptions require the updated
Cloud broker and are bounded to five minutes/the access proof expiry.
- ChatGPT Work Cloud/dot event UI, plugin rescan and a hosted staging
subscription remain deployment gates. Local signed-webhook and paid
model evidence does not claim those surfaces have been exercised.
- Disabled by default. Merging adds schema and opt-in code; it does not
deploy a public endpoint, publish a store listing, create a team, or
start paid agents.
- Migrations 0301 and 0302 are additive and idempotent. Their SQL is
unchanged from the earlier preview numbers, so hash-aware upgrade
reconciliation preserves prior staging applications. Normal instance
upgrades must apply it before enabling MCP.
- Task creation and comments can schedule paid agent work. Consent and
tool descriptions disclose that effect. Revocation blocks future calls
but does not undo delegated work.
- Public deployments need edge rate limits and credential-safe logging.
Internal dispatch is restricted to the closed catalog and carries a
request-local verified actor.
- Hosted onboarding requires the companion Cloud broker, encryption-key
configuration, and tenant rollout. Self-hosted direct connections can
use this PR alone.
- Store acceptance and agent-mode participation are not claimed.
Checked-in plugin endpoints are development defaults; rebuild packages
for a real deployment before installation.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 in Codex, with reasoning, tool use, and code execution. A
more specific serving version and context-window size were not exposed
by the session. Paid eval models: `gpt-5.4-mini-2026-03-17`,
`claude-haiku-4-5-20251001`, and `claude-sonnet-4-6`.

DottaandPaperclip 16b7db35ff Shorten planning skills and measure task decomposition (#15296)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages work for AI agents.
> - Planning guidance helps agents choose owners and dependencies.
> - The runtime skill favors few tasks, but the catalog skill requires a
child-task breakdown.
> - Both add repeated process instructions that can distract from the
requested outcome.
> - This change keeps the ownership and dependency rules and removes the
required matrix and repeated checklist.
> - A bounded Product E2E comparison measures saved outcomes and task
handoffs before qualification.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #11057. Related measurement work: #15218.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
Planning and delegation through the runtime plan-to-tasks and bundled
task-planning skills.

**Current behavior**
The two skills contain about 1,900 words and conflicting guidance on
whether plans require child tasks.

**Proposed behavior**
Keep cohesive work with one owner. Split only for a real owner, parallel
output, dependency, independent review, or follow-up lifecycle. Preserve
existing authorization and planning mechanics.

## What Changed

- Shorten both skills to about 400 words combined. Preserve their keys
and installed-version behavior.
- Remove the duplicate operational-skill pointer and regenerate affected
source metadata.
- Add twelve explicit Product E2E cells: four scenarios with current,
short and disabled planning skills.
- Use the current task composer and actual create-response ID; calibrate
public skill APIs and browser creation without providers.
- Eliminate an observed collision in chat-test company prefixes with a
per-suite sequence.
- Grade saved documents, exact author/run attribution, child count,
prerequisite execution order, review boundaries and completion handoffs.
- Retain current skill bytes and report source, selections, run
accounting and failures.

## Verification

- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck`: pass.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:unit`: 1,287 Vitest tests and 128 Node checks
pass.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner -- --list --suite plan-task-guidance`: twelve
local Codex cells.
- Archived current skills match master
`72ff3a9f27e581a27acb49771e8658bbb0bbaa47` exactly.
- Corrected fixture: three real public-API/database calibrations pass
with zero provider runs; all 35 evaluator checks and Product E2E
typecheck pass.
- Setup campaign
[37399550253](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37399550253)
was canceled after source review found unsupported bundled edits and
automatic core reinstallation. Its paid-cell step was skipped: zero
provider runs, no behavioral grade.
- The next setup
[37401094799](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37401094799)
failed before task creation on the old title-field selector: zero actual
runs, original FAIL retained, cleanup passed. A real browser/API
calibration of the new helper passes with paused non-provider agents and
zero runs.
- Full local typecheck/build pass. Full local tests retain one unchanged
five-minute Git streaming timeout (also fails isolated), 9,591 passes
and 5,796 skips. CI's chat failure was a proven random fixture-prefix
collision; five affected cases pass after the test-only repair.
- Paid behavior comparison and new-head CI/review remain pending. This
PR remains a draft.

## Risks

- The shorter text may change delegation decisions. Live outcomes are
not yet qualified.
- The initial comparison uses one profile and one attempt per cell. It
cannot establish cross-model reliability or cost trends.
- Disabled means unassigned company-owned copies; the company library
remains discoverable. This does not qualify global removal, automatic
accepted-plan wiring changes, or installed-copy migration.
- Skill availability does not prove a model read or cognitively used it.
- No provider/tool protocol, permission, timeout or runtime lifecycle
behavior changes in production.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex (GPT-6), with repository inspection, code editing and tool
use. The exact backend model ID and context-window size are not exposed
in this session. The declared eval model is native Codex `gpt-5.6-sol`.

DottaandPaperclip 72ff3a9f27 Measure native tool context and expand bounded workflow evals (#15218)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages persistent agents and their assigned work.
> - Agents receive both fixed instructions and tool definitions.
> - Moving a procedure into a tool description still adds model context.
> - We need to measure the complete delivered catalog and test real
outcomes.
> - The tested reductions saved little space and introduced failing
outcomes.
> - This PR keeps measurement, bounded eval coverage and the original
evidence.
> - Production prompts, tools and runtime behavior stay unchanged.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #15151, #14961, #14948, #14985.

This adds the measurement and eval coverage needed to assess further
native
instruction changes. The attempted hiring and dependency reduction
failed
qualification and is excluded from the final diff.

## What Changed

- Measure the actual standard-mode tool authority, including all 39
tools and their input schemas. Capture scripted native start, resume and
continuation payloads and the OpenCode MCP declaration list.
- Add OpenCode to the two explicit-only local hiring/reuse and
delegation/feedback stories. Preserve the original task requests and
independent oracles.
- Apply one attempt per selected story and explicit company and
lead-agent budget stops.
- Select managed hiring credentials from the requested profile,
including OpenRouter.
- Run the existing Node test files under Node instead of collecting them
as Vitest suites.
- Retain sanitized comparison reports, original failed grades, source
hashes and evidence gaps.

## Verification

Final source: `2e7cef78eef7cdfe02265e0dcb03e855b8e50bd8`. Local
verification passes:

- Full repository `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`.
- Eval-support unit tests: 1,252 Vitest checks and 128 Node checks.
- Eval TypeScript check and six final-source measurement tests. All 36
normalized
components across nine scripted deliveries and the OpenCode MCP catalog
match
the baseline exactly; the complete standing projection is 49,200 bytes.

Fresh review of this exact head is [5/5 with no remaining
findings](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/15218#issuecomment-5996723170);
all three review threads are resolved.
[Final-head
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37354539126)
passes all 47 jobs, including repository typecheck, build, tests, runner
checks,
browser shards and the canary check. One initial annotation-test timeout
is
retained in attempt 1; its seven-test suite passed locally, and the
affected
CI lane passed on one targeted retry. No source or paid eval rerun was
needed.

Both ready-transition security scans passed with zero annotations. The
PR is
out of draft and conflict-free. GitHub still requires code-owner
approval for
the `package.json` test-script change; its requested reviewers are
already set.

A byte-for-byte comparison against master context
`a65ca0950834a85bb93bcc4b4042ecacdebfef53` confirms no production
changes under
`packages/` or production `server/` paths. The only server addition is a
measurement test. No new paid rerun is needed to compare unchanged
production
bytes. This does not claim that existing product defects have been
fixed.

The rejected corrected experiment had baseline **5 PASS / 1 FAIL** and
candidate
**3 PASS / 3 FAIL**, including **two newly failing pairs**. The later
readiness
experiment had candidate **3 PASS / 3 FAIL** and baseline **3 PASS / 2
FAIL / one
setup cell without a behavioral grade**. Its five comparable pairs had
two new
failures, two new passes and one unchanged pass. The missing baseline
Codex
cell never reached its provider step because Docker setup timed out.

The observed missing behaviors include parent continuation, waiting for
the
latest child revision, revised ZIP delivery and OpenCode credential
persistence.
Those failures remain failures. Source review and passing CI do not
regrade them.
The original reduction saved 460 bytes; its first repair saved only 125
bytes,
and the larger unqualified runtime repair increased the full projection.
None
of those production changes is shipped here.

[report](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/2e7cef78eef7cdfe02265e0dcb03e855b8e50bd8/doc/plans/2026-10-05-native-procedure-guidance.md)
and its linked sanitized receipts for exact
sources, original campaign links, pair-level results and evidence
limitations.

## Risks

- Full-catalog bytes are not model tokens, invoices, private vendor
prompts, lazy-loading behavior or truncation proof.
- The two stories are explicit-only and do not prove general coding
quality or arbitrary resume behavior. Single trials do not establish
causation or performance trends.
- The retained OpenCode candidate credential guard failed. Cleanup
removed the original provider database, so the precise persistence
mechanism remains unknown. The guard is unchanged.
- ACPX provider-execution IDs lack proven host-call mapping. No
extra-work or feedback-consumption claim is inferred by matching names,
order or counts.
- PostgreSQL cannot start locally while the host's shared-memory slots
are exhausted. Hosted CI must supply the full database checks; the full
local database suite is not claimed green.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with repository tools and code execution.
The exact deployment model ID and context-window limit 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 b17019e14d fix(agents): reduce default instructions and qualify stock harnesses (#14948)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Its adapters supply task context and access to Paperclip skills and
tools.
> - The default hire manual and shared prompts also repeat general work
procedures.
> - Those procedures overlap with stock provider instructions and the
Paperclip skill.
> - Existing E2E fixtures supply a QA manual, so they do not qualify the
production default.
> - This pull request reduces the generic instructions and adds real
default-hire coverage.
> - The benefit is less competing guidance, with inspectable evidence
for preserved skills and task context.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #14920. That merged change preserves native Codex base
instructions. This PR covers the default manual, shared legacy prompts,
operational skill guidance, and the narrowly approved ACP
skill-discovery/session-environment repair for measured delivery and
credential-persistence failures.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

New non-CEO hires without a custom bundle and legacy task/chat startup
and continuation prompts.

**Current behavior**

The shipped default manual contains 602 words. Generic task/chat prompts
and ordinary resume deltas repeat work procedures already available
through the harness and Paperclip skill.

**Proposed behavior**

The default manual contains only the eight-word company identity. Shared
startup prompts retain identity and connection guidance. Ordinary resume
deltas retain current work context without the generic execution
contract.

**Reason and benefit**

Let the stock harness guide general work. Keep Paperclip-specific
capabilities and independently test default hires, skills, ordered
comments, and chat restart.

**Breaking changes**

New default hires receive less guidance. Existing saved manuals,
explicit custom bundles, CEO templates, and specialized wake contracts
retain their behavior. The obsolete includeExecutionContract option
remains accepted for source compatibility.

## What Changed

- Reduce the default hire manual to one sentence.
- Reduce shared task/chat defaults and remove the generic
ordinary-resume contract.
- Keep connection guidance, auth, skills, custom prompts, and
specialized wake context.
- Add credential-free instruction-boundary gates and 26 explicit Product
E2E cells across eight legacy/native profiles, including two focused
Paperclip-storage cases.
- Capture public hire receipts before providers run, then grade
delivered prompts and independent task/chat outcomes.
- Add an early legacy skill API recipe for saving a task document,
checking the saved revision receipt and linking the document. Improve
stock task/heartbeat skill-selection metadata and show a clickable
Markdown UI-link example. Keep native tool completion separate.
- Advertise bounded routing descriptions and exact successfully staged
SKILL.md paths in legacy ACP Claude; keep full bodies on demand and
preserve remote path rebasing.
- Remove only the provider environment from copied persisted ACP session
records, while loading current run credentials and preserving all other
options/conversation state.
- Regenerate both capability metadata inventories and reject stale
manifests/inventories before provider admission.
- Publish the original reduction and focused skill-repair comparisons,
preserving all failures, automatic recovery, cost coverage and
limitations.

## Verification

**Behavioral qualification remains pending.** Original legacy ACP Claude
loses the issue document only in the reduced cohort beneath an unchanged
credential failure. A source-backed diagnosis finds that neither
ordinary assignment reads the staged operational skill, while the
runtime persists provider environment in session state. The new common
repairs expose skill metadata/path and omit persisted env; strict
document and credential guards stay intact. [Inspectable diagnosis and
retained
hashes](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/9f654db4541d3d002769c988f6e51fc0b08dadbd/doc/plans/2026-10-03-legacy-acp-claude-readiness.md).

Current repair head `de0965984ff3edf611ae6d0e7ca5c7d5ae3947bb`
incorporates master `569c7203aa24b95440682983ce7940ba1d4247bd` (merged
#14961/#15007). All 222 affected adapter tests, adapter-utils/E2E
typechecks, and final 96 variant/grader/retry calibrations pass. The
frozen historical comparator is
`c25697f4260b6f3adfea143c3ae9932e2f42986d`: 8,280 of 8,291 paths
identical, exactly two production instruction paths plus nine declared
unit expectations differ. The operational skill/discovery/environment
repairs, selected model/profile/task/core grader/auth/permissions/retry
policy are identical. Both actual launcher prepare→verify admissions
pass with zero providers. [Immutable manifest and exact
receipts](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/9f654db4541d3d002769c988f6e51fc0b08dadbd/doc/plans/2026-10-03-legacy-acp-claude-evidence/manifest.json).

One original legacy ACP Claude cell per variant is authorized, with
enforced single campaign attempts, 12-minute deadlines and company/agent
1,000-cent hard stops; every product recovery run/cost is counted.
Actual live outcomes are pending. Current normal CI has one failed
server shard and failed aggregate verify under diagnosis; other normal
gates including typecheck/build/Rust/all eight browser shards pass.
Fresh review completed successfully; the valid historical startup/resume
masking finding was fixed with per-invocation task/chat checks and
strict complete-snapshot capture, calibrated and resolved. Prior heads,
failures and campaigns below remain historical evidence, not checks on
this repair head.

- Prior head `36aa4d81c49a1a8f6f04b1a068fae19aa901955f` is replayed on
merged hiring master `862a5758ba0e88a33232c1f1fa645e85c38a3113`. All 52
current-head checks pass with two intentional Storybook skips, including
repository typecheck/test/build and the browser shard. Fresh Greptile is
5/5 with zero unresolved review threads. Exact-head stock prerequisites
pass 599 assertions (598 TypeScript + 1 Rust), all six gates and
retained receipt verification, zero providers/source errors. Fingerprint
`a7f5a22d860a88fe20cce213c6d5e0004788f32c8363930729aea4fd740ad16d`.
Combined catalog/hiring calibrations pass 67 assertions, E2E typecheck
and 26-cell stock discovery pass. Canonical contract/inventory checks
and the later issue-derived reference calibration are retained; that
reference-only follow-up is not live-qualified by earlier frozen runs.
- Prior full repository typecheck/build passed. The complete local
Vitest run executed 14,956 tests: 14,870 passed, 83 skipped, three
timing failures. All three affected files passed unchanged narrow
reruns; original failures remain retained. Current-head CI now passes
the full general checks; the original local failures remain retained.
- The original 24-pair default-manual/shared-prompt comparison has two
new overall classic Claude/OpenCode document-delivery failures plus an
additional legacy ACP Claude document loss beneath an unchanged
credential-guard failure (not closed by later runs), two newly passing
OpenCode ordered cases, seven unchanged failures and 13 unchanged
passes. Equal 15/24 totals do not establish behavioral equivalence.

- The skill-only repair holds the eight-word manual/shared prompts and
merged #14920 fixed. All four matched profile configurations and 203
fixture/behavior files match. Candidate
`abd0b628ca642c09a54a4edc56a5227402f6686e` varies only the two skill
sources against baseline `bc83fe030234439ac51279502a28803958963e2e`.
[Candidate

each pass 571 exact-source prerequisites before providers; all eight
cells clean up successfully. Failed campaigns publish successfully and
remain failed.
- Repair pairs: Claude original Fail → Pass; Claude explicit Pass →
Pass; both OpenCode cases Fail → Fail. Explicit OpenCode's handoff
worsens beneath the unchanged failing UI-link grade: baseline gives a
clickable API URL, candidate gives a code-formatted path without an
anchor. The request's usable-link wording is narrower in the UI-only
oracle. [Complete repair report and safe
projection](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/875f4c397d9e8c3f12f39dedd59abaf1eaf5236e/doc/plans/2026-10-02-legacy-document-skill-repair.md).
- The subsequent narrow stock metadata/link correction has two matched
Pass → Pass cases, zero new machine failures/passes and no pending
pairs. Both original-case handoff links remain deficient: candidate uses
a wrong PAP prefix, baseline supplies a bare prefix-less slug path; the
preserved original oracle only requires a durable document. Both
explicit clickable UI-link cases pass revision/content/link grading. All
four exact-source 587-check gates, single assignment runs and cleanup
pass. This does not establish fix causality because baseline also
succeeds. [Candidate
workflow](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37069547401)
freezes `fe9dc1e3c518825242ed889ab9c8352986f8c2ed`; [matched
baseline](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37069552374)
freezes `0d7ecfa96d72fba79b7f0a25052b42c0686c0488`. This is a skill-only
comparison with reduced manuals/shared prompts held constant, not a
repeat of the historical-manual comparison. Only original and clarified
explicit classic OpenCode cases are selected, two per variant/four
expected turns. 8,242 other tracked files and both profile hashes match;
protected workflows admit each exact source before credentials.

Candidate original loads Paperclip/reference before saving publicly;
baseline original loads it after writing locally, then saves publicly
within the same assignment. Reported cost totals are $0.0107824490
candidate / $0.0107909015 baseline, with unmetered runtime. The later
reference-only issue-derived link correction is provider-free calibrated
and **not live-qualified** by these frozen runs; no further paid runs.
- Retained tool calls show the repaired original OpenCode assignment
loads only its assigned output skill before writing locally. Operational
Paperclip is first loaded during automatic disposition recovery; its
early recipe is visible then, but it never saves the missing document.
Explicit candidate loads Paperclip and reads the new reference before
saving successfully. All nine actual runs are counted. Reported LLM
totals are $0.3802537209 baseline and $0.4918990161 candidate; local
runtime is unmetered.
- Initial setup, packaging, cancelled/missing-cell recovery, callback
test and relative-output attempts remain retained. No completed provider
failure was rerun. Frozen measurement branches are unchanged by later
canonical metadata maintenance.
- Run `pnpm test:e2e:runner:stock-harness`, `pnpm test:e2e:runner:unit`,
and `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck`. Select `stock-harness` explicitly
for paid execution; it is excluded from `--all`.

Prior-head integration: `36aa4d81c49a1a8f6f04b1a068fae19aa901955f`
replays this PR on merged hiring #14985
(`862a5758ba0e88a33232c1f1fa645e85c38a3113`), preserving the four
explicit custom-CEO-bundle checks, minimal generic manual boundary, and
both suites. The combined fixture catalog and hiring calibrations pass
67 assertions; exact-head stock prerequisites pass 599 assertions (598
TypeScript + 1 Rust), all six gates and retained-receipt verification,
zero providers/source errors, fingerprint
`a7f5a22d860a88fe20cce213c6d5e0004788f32c8363930729aea4fd740ad16d`. E2E
typecheck and 26-cell stock discovery pass. Fresh current-head CI passes
all 52 checks with two intentional skips, and fresh Greptile is 5/5 with
zero unresolved review threads.

The prior source-plan browser failure is retained: a deterministic
process fixture replayed its last `fixture:plan` command on
`chat_task_completed`, writing revision 2 with identical body after the
approval handoff. This was not paid provider execution. Rebased
current-head CI passes the same assertion without an old-head retry or a
change to that browser fixture.

The merged hiring change was measured separately on immutable matched
unions, with this reduced/shared/operational context and native
completion guidance held constant. [Complete original two-profile
report](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/f0512647656be78e48abd8c22a3078db8bf6bcd2/doc/plans/2026-10-02-hiring-template-live-comparison.md):
[candidate](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37075466208)
/ [historical
baseline](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37075469463),
705 provider-free prerequisites each. Both pairs are unchanged Fail →
Fail on the exact-five count, with six core delivery checks passing all
four cells; 28 actual successful runs include eight automatic completion
wakes, zero retries, four successful cleanups. Source-read coverage is
uncomparable, actual model charges unknown. Separately versioned
provider-free accounting remains analytical work; original verdicts are
preserved. This does not rerun or qualify the completed default-manual
or native campaigns.

## Risks

- Legacy ACP Claude's additional delivery loss is not closed by any
later matched run and blocks the no-extra-failing-behavior merge
criterion. Legacy document delivery may have relied on the prior
manual/shared prompts. The early skill repair improves Claude in one
trial; the later OpenCode pairs pass in both variants and cannot
establish causality or robust recovery. Both original-case links remain
deficient beneath the storage-only grade. The later issue-derived
reference correction has only provider-free validation. Native
finish/block descriptions must not be supplied to legacy agents.
- The comparison holds merged native Codex fix #14920 constant; it
cannot measure that fix's before/after task performance.
- These bounded skill/context/chat workflows do not measure general
coding quality. Unrepresented providers remain unqualified.
- Saved manuals and old Codex sessions are not automatically migrated.
Codex through ACP still has a separate base-instruction follow-up.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family as identified by this session. The exact
deployment ID and context-window size are not exposed. The assistant
used reasoning, repository tools, code execution, and delegated PR/eval

DottaandPaperclip 78e0034498 fix(evals): account for hiring completion notifications (#15007)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Product E2E evals check real hiring and delegated task completion.
> - The hiring fixture requires three requested CEO turns and two coder
executions.
> - The server can also wake the CEO when each delegated task completes.
> - Two exact-five-run guards rejected these valid completion turns in
all four retained cells.
> - This pull request validates bounded completion turns in both guards.
> - The benefit is accurate workflow grading while all actual runs and
coverage failures remain visible.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #14985, #14948, #14961.

**What happened?**

The original hiring comparison reports Codex Fail → Fail and Claude Fail
→ Fail. Each cell has seven successful runs. The five requested work
turns are accompanied by two server task-completion notifications. All
six other delivery checks pass.

**Expected behavior**

Require exactly three distinct user-requested CEO turns and one coder
execution for each of two known tasks. Admit at most two strictly
attributed server completion turns, including one turn that batches both
tasks. Reject unknown, duplicate, failed, retried or extra-work runs.

**Steps to reproduce**

Inspect the retained four-cell report linked below. Each original result
fails `five-successful-turns`. The same exact count was also enforced by
the final chat-flow guard.

## What Changed

- Add one typed lifecycle helper shared by the hiring scorer and the
hiring-only final chat guard.
- Validate public run ledgers, company/user/account identity, request
attribution, task origins, completion deliveries, timing and replies.
- Keep exactly five required work turns; declare seven maximum total
turns for cost and timeout planning.
- Count all actual runs, including notification runs and unexpected
resets. Keep other chat count guards unchanged.
- Version the hiring grader as v3 (turn accounting v2) and include the
helper and chat guard in its definition digest.
- Keep source-read, exact coder-body and all six other delivery checks
unchanged.
- Add 144 focused helper/scorer/settlement calibrations and separately
versioned exact retained-input replay reports.
- Retry complete bracketed observations, await both owed callbacks and
attributed replies, and refresh the final guard consistently.
- Reject unrelated completion writes and failed mutation attempts using
exact canonical/native action IDs. Missing identity mapping is
uncomparable action coverage.

## Verification

- All 977 credential-free E2E support tests pass across 64 files,
including 144 focused lifecycle/action/scorer/settlement calibrations.
- E2E typecheck, ordinary plugin SDK and Runner TypeScript dependency
builds, capability contract/inventory checks and the existing two-cell
hiring discovery pass.
- [Executable replay
report](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/fed1729018cc100f5f4bbfb692777e49009c423b/doc/plans/2026-10-02-hiring-executable-accounting-replay.md)
pins current code revision `e4077ade1818d98b9862ae79ee1d49a007dcf9c1`,
v3 definition digest, exact source/input hashes and each original/new
check.
- The stricter replay verifies both Codex variants through both
executable guards. ACPX Claude action attribution remains
unresolved/uncomparable because provider execution IDs cannot be exactly
joined to native request IDs; guards fail closed. No notification writes
are observed. All six other outcomes and every original source/template
coverage check stay unchanged. Original files and Fail → Fail machine
verdicts remain preserved; zero providers are called.
- Full attempts remain uncomparable in both profiles. Historical Claude
also keeps its six-backtick exact-template mismatch. This grading repair
does not prove model-performance equivalence.
- The limited sidecar-v1 and initial executable-v2 passes checked
notification-created tasks but could miss unrelated document writes.
Those assessments remain preserved and do not prove harmless
notifications. The stricter v3 replay is separate.
- [Original measurement and separate
sidecar](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/8eb517ca1497687237163bdef4dfc4d3332ea916/doc/plans/2026-10-02-hiring-template-live-comparison.md)
retain 28 actual runs, eight automatic notifications, four successful
cleanups and unknown actual model charges. No models are rerun.
- The branch is replayed on master `59c07ede7`. Intervening master
changes are UI-only; eval source bytes and replay verdicts match. The
four-cell provider-free replay was repeated against the reachable code
revision.
- Initial-head normal CI retained browser failures in agent-run denial
feedback and touch-picker scroll position. Those browser paths and
imports were unchanged, but their cause was not established. The
necessary review-fix head passes both browser checks; no blind rerun was
requested.
- Local full repository typecheck/test/build were not repeated.
Exact-head normal CI passes the required repository gates, including
typecheck, tests, build and browser shards. Fresh Greptile review
completed on `fed1729018cc100f5f4bbfb692777e49009c423b` with 5/5 and
zero unresolved threads. An independent rerun of the 144 focused
helper/scorer/settlement tests passes on the unchanged head.


**Merge readiness:** This PR repairs the evaluator. Its positive and
negative calibrations pass, both guards reject missing action
attribution, current-head CI and review pass, and there are no merge
conflicts. The retained ACPX cells remain uncomparable because their
action IDs cannot be joined. That coverage limit remains a separate
follow-up; it does not require relaxing this grader or changing the old
results. No model calls, production instructions, carrier changes, or
historical regrades are part of this readiness update.

## Risks

- Missing or inconsistent public lifecycle evidence fails the bounded
helper. The focused calibrations reject plausible false positives and
malformed observations. Unmatched action IDs fail closed and are
reported as uncomparable rather than a model task regression.
- Source-read evidence remains incomplete. This PR does not change
provider event carriers or relax the coverage oracle.
- The versioned count check differs from original v1 results. Reports
retain both versions and exact input hashes.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family as identified by this session. The exact
deployment ID and context-window size are not exposed. The assistant
used reasoning, repository tools, code execution and delegated
calibration work.

DottaandPaperclip dd868ed125 fix(runner): share native completion tool guidance (#14961)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Native Runner agents report completion through finish and block
tools.
> - The providers receive different descriptions for those tools.
> - Completion guidance belongs with the tools that enforce the result.
> - This pull request shares the descriptions and refreshes retained
catalogs.
> - A separate native suite checks completion and blocking on production
defaults.
> - Legacy agents retain their separate skill and API paths.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #14920, #14948, #14985.

**Current behavior**

Native Codex and MCP bridges describe finish and block differently.
Retained provider sessions can keep old descriptions.

**Proposed behavior**

Native providers receive the same finish and block descriptions. The
descriptions cover report selection, validation feedback, returned
outcomes, approval gates and final-answer timing. Retained native
sessions refresh from v13 to v14.

**Reason and benefit**

Put the completion procedure next to its native tool. Preserve stock
base instructions, schemas, permissions and terminal semantics. This PR
now stands alone on master. It contains no reduced manual, shared prompt
or operational-skill changes from #14948.

## What Changed

- Add canonical native finish and block descriptions. Use them in direct
Codex and both native MCP bridges.
- Advance the native tool contract to v14. Cover old-v13 refresh without
replacing task identity or prior history.
- Check authenticated tool catalogs, provider start/resume frames and
serialized daemon catalogs.
- Add an independent, explicit-only native completion suite. Preserve
the original assigned-skill durable-document journey. Pair it with a
concrete whole-task blocker across Codex, ACPX Claude and OpenCode.
- Verify the actual public production default bundle and budgets before
execution. Require independent durable disposition, native
result/terminal receipts and observable provider-final ordering.
- Correct the blocker browser oracle to accept the requested
explanation. Keep exact owner/action/scope checks. Calibrate positive,
missing and contradictory replies.
- Preserve only actual `tool_call` terminal names (`paperclip_finish` /
`paperclip_block`) in the native compatibility run-log projection.
Require the same named call ID through its finishing result; retain all
other redaction boundaries.
- Admit verified hosted shallow checkout/build hydration and bind the
selected runnerd to exact source/archive/binary provenance. Hosted cells
truthfully reuse the existing trusted build; local admission executes
Rust calibration. Forward only public source/run identifiers through
both launcher preflight subprocess paths.
- Enforce single attempts in the launcher for opted-in fixtures. Keep
ordinary retry policy unchanged. Run exact-source, credential-free
admission before credential loading.

## Verification

- Frozen candidate: `d6e59e4712a3158ab4cd7d58deff1389b4578c21`, based on
master `59c07ede72dc08b8aba149a01cc11e0b7a204621`; historical
descriptions: `e74ed61a69fbdd8b3a8f15dd6456bc3140246e33`. Exactly the
five original native production files and six unit tests differ. Both
carry identical corrected fixtures, strict named finishing-call grader,
closed compatibility carrier and admission. Defaults,
profiles/models/auth/permissions and manifest bytes match.
- Actual launcher `prepareNativeCompletionPreflight` →
`verifyNativeCompletionPreflight` admission passes on both exact refs
with zero providers: candidate 132 / historical 127 selected TypeScript
assertions, 128 Node calibrations and one Rust normalization calibration
each; E2E typecheck, manifest checks, selected binary provenance and
six-cell discovery pass. Each has 257 explicitly skipped unrelated
assertions, not coverage. The credential-free environment calibration
exercises both real prepare/verify subprocess options with public hosted
identifiers and rejects credential/ambient overrides. Complete actual
launcher prepare→verify also passes on both frozen refs with explicitly
synthetic hosted metadata/verified archives, separately labeled as
calibration rather than a trusted GitHub run. Exact framed provenance
parsing and mock source identity are calibrated without relaxing the
real verifier.
- [Complete matched qualification

are inspectable. All six candidate cells pass; historical descriptions
pass five. Paired outcomes: **zero new failures, one new pass (Codex
blocker), five unchanged passes, zero pending pairs**. [Candidate
campaign](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37098728980)
and [historical
campaign](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37098815696)
each execute six original attempt-1 native runs, with no campaign retry
and successful cleanup. Their trusted workflow revision is
`215586d127e97c9301d86e769a39a15c13298ca2`, separate from measured
source. [Candidate public
HTML](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-37098728980-1/index.html)
and [historical public
HTML](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-37098815696-1/index.html)
retain declared screenshots.
- Independent candidate evidence agrees with all original grades: 51
strict native checks, 12 served-default/budget checks and 21 original
skill/document checks pass. The historical Codex blocker saves the
correct whole-task blocker but omits the required marker from its actual
provider final and identical saved reply. This is not semantic-summary
fallback. Its original browser/matcher failure stays retained; the
additional native snapshot/grade and workspace before/after digest were
never written and are not fabricated by the separate API/PRP audit.
Historical Codex completion has one failed finish followed by success
within the same native run; the public receipt records no failure
reason. All twelve runs and their usage remain counted. Reported
model-cost subtotals are $0.00421482 historical/$0.00437391 candidate;
Codex/Claude zero entries have unknown billing type, actual invoices are
unverified and hosted execution cost is unmetered. One matched trial
supports no extra failure within these six cases, not broad statistical
or coding-quality equivalence.
- Initial hosted `e18c2cf9` / `459455ac` and subsequent `0a9c5a7` /
`00a761b` cohorts each stopped before providers in all twelve cells. The
latter failed a mocked-receipt unit test under ambient hosted metadata;
all source/build proofs passed. [All twelve later setup
receipts](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/402ee94c52273ad58de355ae9a7d562dd22f8101/doc/plans/2026-10-02-native-completion-qualified-hosted-setup.json)
are retained. [Exact failed setup
receipts](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/27653eb1a8f8ce839776d760f4563f672e5a706c/doc/plans/2026-10-02-native-completion-master-hosted-setup.json)
and the original manifest remain intact. Local sandbox-denied loopback
and stale anchor-expectation attempts are retained separately; unchanged
appropriate assertions were corrected/admitted before paid dispatch. Old
anonymous OpenCode streams are not assigned inferred tool names or
retroactively passed.
- Full provider-free E2E support previously passed 927 tests in 67
files. Exact-head d6 normal CI run `37098409915`, attempt 1 passes full
repository typecheck/build/tests, Runner Rust/static checks, all browser
shards/aggregate and canary: 52 check-runs pass, four intentional skips,
Snyk passes. Fresh Greptile check `111132956342` is 5/5 with zero
unresolved threads. Source-specific deterministic tests do not
substitute for the bounded live comparison.
- Earlier native source `9138f570c341c251a5727c32d6615ce238bc8e03` is
archived. Its [complete reduced-manual-context
report](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/9138f570c341c251a5727c32d6615ce238bc8e03/doc/plans/2026-10-02-native-completion-live-comparison.md)
remains intact, including original failures, grader limits and
provider-free replay. It is not current-master-context qualification.

## Risks

Changed tool text can change model behavior. The completed six-pair
qualification shows no extra failing outcomes in this bounded trial;
other tasks and repeated-run variance remain unmeasured. Observable
final ordering does not prove provider feedback consumption. Public
evidence can fail closed if a provider does not expose the required
result sequence. This slice does not remove native fixed prompts or
measure general coding quality. No database, schema, permission or
legacy completion changes occur.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with code inspection, execution and tool
use. The exact deployment ID and context-window size are not exposed in
this session. They are unavailable rather than inferred from the model
menu.

DottaandPaperclip 862a5758ba fix(agents): reduce hiring templates to role descriptions (#14985)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for work.
> - New agents receive role instructions from onboarding, the hiring skill, or a team package.
> - These sources repeat harness procedures and impose generic work policies.
> - They can crowd out the task and the harness instructions.
> - This pull request reduces those sources to short role descriptions.
> - It preserves configuration, skills, authentication, reporting lines, and approval controls.
> - The benefit is less repeated instruction text with explicit coverage for the default hiring path.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #3307. The CEO template can impose a fixed delegation route instead of letting the agent choose how to fulfill the request. This change removes that route. It does not implement autonomous goal selection.

Related work: #14920 preserves stock Codex base instructions. #14948 reduces the generic manual and shared runtime prompts. #14961 improves native completion-tool descriptions. This PR is separate from those changes.

## What Changed

- Select only the short CEO `AGENTS.md` for new default CEO bundles. Keep the three former companion files as compatibility assets.
- Reduce the first-agent chief-of-staff prompt and coder, QA, UX, and security role examples.
- Reduce seven bundled team role bodies. Preserve their role, reporting, and skill metadata. Regenerate the catalog.
- Make hiring examples optional. Replace the long generic role manual with short role drafting guidance. Preserve explicit requester instructions.
- Add configuration and import coverage for native and legacy managed bundles, custom instructions, first-agent rendering, and catalog contents.
- Add an explicit-only hiring eval that starts from the production CEO default and checks one coder hire, independently computed JSON output, saved instructions, and worker reuse.
- Include the full prompt comparison and a separate three-request drafting simulation. Neither is a live provider comparison.

Prompt differences: [before and after](doc/plans/2026-10-02-hiring-template-prompt-diff.md). The CEO default falls from 1,897 to 20 words. The coder example falls from 652 to 18 words. Word counts describe instruction size, not outcome quality or billing.

## Verification

- PASS: 99 focused server tests and eight shipped-catalog tests.
- PASS: catalog generation and validation for four shipped teams.
- PASS: hiring skill validation.
- PASS: `pnpm -r typecheck`.
- PASS: `pnpm build`.
- INCOMPLETE: the full local `pnpm test:run` was stopped before rebase. Its original log is retained. This is not a completed full-suite pass. The full current-head GitHub CI workflow passed: https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37073372419.
- PASS: `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck` and `pnpm test:e2e:runner:unit` (63 files / 843 tests).
- PASS: discovery for the two new hiring cells, 50 existing everyday cells, and the full 438-cell catalog.
- PASS after rebase: 99 server tests, 11 catalog tests, 62 selected E2E support tests, and the E2E typecheck.
- PASS: all current-head PR checks at `57dcee147ed0b2d2e3cc657cd9e50fb16bf9ec25`: 51 successful check runs, two intentional Storybook skips, and successful Snyk status. Fresh Greptile is 5/5 with zero unresolved threads.
- PENDING follow-up: matched live hiring runs on frozen integration refs. No live outcome-quality or non-regression result is claimed from the configuration checks or this merge.

The new suite has two local native cells: Codex and ACPX Claude. It expects five provider turns per cell. It compares source-derived bundles, so the historical long templates remain admissible. Missing successful source-read receipts make a pair uncomparable. They do not establish a behavior regression or equivalence.

## Risks

- New default roles have fewer prescribed procedures. Live checks must determine whether a removed instruction was needed for an outcome.
- Existing custom and saved bundles keep their contents. The retained companion assets avoid a source-file compatibility break.
- Specialized Summarizer, Reflection Coach, and Wiki Maintainer prompts remain unchanged. Their product contracts need separate review.
- The generic non-CEO fallback reduction is in #14948. This PR alone does not provide its eight-word fallback.
- Configuration tests and drafting simulations do not establish live outcome quality. QA, UX, security, and chief-of-staff hiring behavior remain outside the new two-cell comparison.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with reasoning, code editing, shell tools, and delegated verification. The runtime does not expose the exact deployment model ID or context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip 018993140f feat: let agents name prompt-only tasks (#14761)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Users create tasks with a title and a description.
> - A required title adds work when the prompt already explains the
request.
> - An agent can name the task once it reads that request.
> - This pull request accepts prompt-only tasks and starts them with a
short prompt slice.
> - A scoped title tool lets the assigned agent replace that slice early
without changing execution state.
> - A live browser eval checks the real agent call, saved title, audit
entry, and preservation of user titles.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting: task creation, shared contracts, database, server, runner
tools, and board UI.

**Problem or motivation**

Users must currently write a title before they can submit a detailed
task prompt. The agent has enough context to write a useful title
itself.

**Proposed solution**

Make the title optional when a description is present. Save the first
120 characters of the normalized prompt as a provisional title. Ask the
assigned agent to call `set_task_title` early. Use an atomic
provisional-title guard to preserve titles supplied or edited by users.
Keep explicit titles supported.

Related: #14543 and #14556 concern empty-title submission. This change
intentionally enables that submission when a prompt is present, instead
of requiring a title.

## What Changed

- Add the `titleNeedsGeneration` field with an idempotent migration.
Keep existing titles unchanged.
- Add `PUT /api/issues/:id/title` and the native and legacy
`set_task_title` tool. Enforce company access, active-run ownership,
shared, bounded retry receipts across native/HTTP calls, and
transactional audit logging. Refresh external-object links after commit,
with the same feature gate and plugin detectors as ordinary title edits.
- Add early naming guidance in Standard, Ask, and Plan task context.
Preserve the description, status, and assignment.
- Allow prompt-only root and child task creation, plus draft restoration
in the New Task dialog. Keep user titles supported.
- Add an opt-in Product E2E suite for prompt-only Standard and Ask
tasks, plus an explicit-title control. It checks actual provider calls
within the first five tools, persisted state, audit attribution, and the
reloaded UI.
- Preserve a closed vocabulary of API key maintenance phrases in
declared prose while rejecting opaque credential suffixes. Add one
bounded naming retry after wording is rejected, without treating the
rejected call as a saved title.
- Repair the native cleanup receipt check exposed during full
verification: accept matching input digests, retain legacy input checks,
and reject conflicting receipts.

## Verification

- Live Product E2E on `f43478473800e3a46b85c5ee79677efdb15108e7`: **3/3
passed** with native Codex `gpt-5.4-mini`, first attempts only,
automatic retries disabled. Standard and Ask each saved “Rotate expired
API key” on their first tool call, with matching persisted state and a
single same-run audit entry. The explicit-title control retained its
user title with zero title writes. All three verified the reloaded
browser UI.
- Campaign: `local-2026-09-30T21-30-11-021Z`. Earlier failed campaigns
are retained separately; they exposed credential-prose handling and
prompted the naming recovery fix. No failed result was regraded or
deleted.
- Reproduce with `pnpm test:e2e:runner -- --id
task-titles.runner-codex-mini.local.prompt-title-standard --id
task-titles.runner-codex-mini.local.prompt-title-ask --id
task-titles.runner-codex-mini.local.preserve-explicit-title
--max-automatic-retries 0` and an authorized provider key.
- Full `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed on the latest commit.
The runner build used the configured external eval source tree.
- Product E2E unit suite: **61 files, 818 tests passed**; E2E typecheck
and UI token gates passed.
- Title API/native regressions cover prompt-only and explicit child
creation, user edits, ownership/company isolation, external reference
refresh, cross-surface retry replay, and the 64-key limit without
receipt eviction. All passed. Prompt-context coverage: **44 tests
passed**.
- Rust credential regressions: **35 tests passed**, including benign
maintenance qualifiers and opaque credential rejection in every declared
prose field. Catalog/report reconciliation: **28 tests passed**. Native
recovery: **560 tests passed**.
- Broad local `pnpm test:run`: **14,555 tests passed** in the general
server group; two suites failed to initialize embedded PostgreSQL and
the existing 40,000-file Git streaming stress test exceeded its
300-second macOS timeout. All three suites then passed in isolation (**5
tests passed**) without code or timeout changes. The original full local
command exited nonzero and is not being represented as a clean full run.
- Latest-head GitHub checks are green: **53 passed, 4 skipped, zero
failed or pending**, including all test shards and the canary packaging
dry run. Greptile reviewed the same commit at **5/5**, with zero
unresolved review threads.

## Risks

- The additive database field must reach the server and UI together. The
migration uses `IF NOT EXISTS` and defaults existing tasks to a final
title.
- Title generation depends on the assigned agent running. Tasks without
a run keep their provisional title.
- Live qualification covers the native Codex path in Standard and Ask
modes. API/legacy and Plan behavior have deterministic coverage.
- The credential-prose exception validates the entire suffix against a
closed maintenance vocabulary. Unknown suffixes, assignments, quoted
values, credential prefixes, and diagnostics retain strict checks.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with reasoning, tool use, and code
execution. The exact deployment ID and context window are not exposed in
this session. The live eval uses the native Codex `gpt-5.4-mini`
profile.
