DottaandPaperclip 33ca62f776 Keep external-agent feature reads on their admission transaction (#19750)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages work for AI agents.
> - External native agents must pass current feature and authority
checks.
> - The broker checks feature settings inside its admission transaction.
> - The old feature reader uses the root database pool.
> - Two active transactions can leave no connection for that read.
> - This change uses the admitted transaction for the same policy read.
> - It keeps the existing company, principal and controller checks.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #19340. That merged change fixes retained native Retry ownership.
This change leaves that recovery contract intact. Related: #18744 and
#17833 fix caller-owned transaction reads in other domains. Root
searched live GitHub for open externalBotEnabled changes and found no
duplicate.

**What happened?**

An external-agent admission can wait for another pool connection while
it holds a row lock. A second transaction can occupy the remaining
connection and wait for that lock. The feature read must use the
transaction that already owns admission.

**Expected behavior**

Dot, Grok and Muse read current feature settings on the admitted
transaction. Disabled providers remain disabled. Current authority
checks remain in force.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Use a real PostgreSQL pool with two connections.
2. Lock the settings row in the admission transaction.
3. Occupy the second connection with a transaction that waits for that
row.
4. Read the existing provider feature policy through the admitted owner.
5. Require the read to finish before the competing lock is acquired.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The fix was tested at `d8dece250b75cffee67d3b7f4f0e669826282164`, based
on master `839d41aabbc6d042250548aedcaa5c50d369dca3`. It now includes
master `131b566ca4fa866c4348739c75cfe48c805b3398` through normal merge
`c2031b0fb3e5d1b34ebff1d5af8cc050d129bd9a`. All seven fix files retain
their tested blobs and modes.

## What Changed

- Pass the admitted select owner through the broker identity contract.
- Use that owner for Dot, Grok and Muse feature settings.
- Add a read-only settings projection that reuses the existing managed
and staging view. It does not create the settings row.
- Add six real PostgreSQL controls for enabled and disabled providers.
- Add three broker-path PostgreSQL regressions for exact transaction
forwarding through Dot, Grok and Muse.
- Keep all newer master broker changes and existing authority checks.

## Verification

Local controlled regression passed at tested revision
`d8dece250b75cffee67d3b7f4f0e669826282164`:

- Baseline: restore only the five original master production leaves.
Keep the same read-only settings projection and regression file. One
enabled-Dot case failed with the intended `57014`; it still read the
correct `true` policy. Five cases were unselected.
- The trace held the admission lock at 2.441 ms. The second connection
waited for that lock at 9.494 ms. The root-pool feature read finished at
2015.585 ms, after the competing statement timed out at 2014.982 ms.
- Candidate: all six enabled/disabled Dot, Grok and Muse controls
passed, with zero skips, in 14.528 s. Each read returned the configured
policy before the competing lock was acquired. Every competing
transaction committed without an error.
- Fresh normal candidate production declarations passed in 17.080 s. The
complete 615-root owning test program passed in 4.756 s. Own dependency
setup and TypeScript export builds had passed before these controls.
- Known worker groups and sockets closed. The single post-owner audit
found no other sessions in the test database. No forensic database was
changed.

An earlier selector attempt skipped all six cases and opened no test
database connection. It is not a regression pass or failure. Source
inspection proved that Vitest 5 filters names with ` > ` separators,
while its JSON reporter joins names with spaces. The selected control
then used the unique title-only pattern; its separate baseline failure
is preserved above.

The later normal master merge preserves all seven tested files. The 46
incoming paths change Native/workspace recovery, types and presentation.
They do not change the direct feature/settings read graph. The
direct-policy evidence therefore carries from its tested revision. It
was **not rerun at the merged revision**. Fresh merged-head checks at
`c2031b0fb3e5d1b34ebff1d5af8cc050d129bd9a` passed: the content-aware
Shared/SDK producer (1.325 s), normal Runner core and surfaces
TypeScript programs (0.936 s and 0.693 s), and the full normal App graph
(28.933 s). The App check included all production layers and all four
test programs: 616 normal test roots and 397/409/412 tree roots. Known
build owners and sockets closed. Database/Eval and provider asset
outputs remained unchanged. No install, Cargo, binary build, provider
execution or PG test repeated. Fresh final-head remote CI and review
remain **pending**.

The test entry is
`server/src/modules/external-agents/feature-reader-owner.postgres.test.ts`.
It requires a dedicated external
`PAPERCLIP_FEATURE_OWNER_TEST_DATABASE_URL` ending in `_test` and an
owned `PAPERCLIP_FEATURE_OWNER_TRACE` path. Its normal migration hook,
two-connection pool, case deadlines and assertions remain unchanged. No
provider or Runner binary is needed for these controls.

The review also identified a wiring coverage gap: the six contention
controls call the readers directly. A new whole-three file now traverses
the actual Dot/Grok/Muse broker factories, normal pending-pairing
producers, dispatch and real execution-admission transaction.
Pass-through observations compare the exact admission transaction with
the owner supplied to the normal readonly settings projection. Each
provider is disabled through normal settings and must return real 403,
read actual false policy, leave the queued run without Native authority,
and create no assignment. No grant, ready binding, policy result or
successful authorization is mocked.

With only the original five master production leaves restored, all three
new cases failed at the exact missing-owner assertion (`readOwners`
expected length 1, actual 0) after passing the real 403 and
admission-scope checks. The full baseline had0 pass / 3 fail / 0 skip in
12.691 s. With the exact candidate leaves restored, the unchanged
whole-three file passed 3/3 with zero skips in 10.101 s. Both variants
used actual Node 24 / Vitest 5 forks and a real PG pool of two; all
known owners/groups/sockets closed. The candidate's private temporary
directory was removed; the failed baseline database/home remain
retained. Root independently read all three raw baseline failures,
rehashed source and outputs, verified known owner/group closure, then
observed no remaining test sessions. The successful database was
normally removed; the original failing database and home remain
retained.

The new test entry is
`server/src/modules/external-agents/broker-feature-owner.postgres.test.ts`,
using dedicated `PAPERCLIP_BROKER_FEATURE_OWNER_TEST_DATABASE_URL`. The
complete normal 617-root owning test program passed in 4.883 s after a
normal exported config refresh; prior production declarations and
unrelated configs remained byte-identical. No compiler or
dependency/Rust work repeated for the PG variants. These results were
obtained with the seven production/source files at c203 plus the new
test; they are not claimed as a new published-head remote CI result. The
review repair is committed at
`d043860eb93a26c4416f184697a212f027d538e2`; it adds only this 117-line
test file to `c2031b0f`. Tracked production bytes are unchanged. Exact
published head `d043860eb93a26c4416f184697a212f027d538e2` now passes 56
checks with four expected skips. Greptile reviewed this exact head at
5/5 and confirms that the broker-test gap is addressed. The complete
review thread is resolved. Ponytail stopped without a verdict; one
normal retry was requested and no active turn or new finding was
observed. No earlier-head result is used as a new-head pass.

The controls prove feature policy and transaction ownership. They do not
prove deployed suspension, hosted Dot/Muse eligibility or full Native
task execution. The separate private useful-case pass does not supply
missing current-master or accounting evidence.

## Risks

The broker identity contract changes for all three providers. A missed
adapter could use the wrong owner. Current semantic, real-policy and
exact broker-owner identity tests cover that error.

The read-only projection reuses the normal settings view. It preserves
managed and staging rules. An absent row is projected without a write;
the existing initializing getter stays unchanged.

No schema, public API, queue, timer, rate limit or provider deadline
changes. No historical Retry or physical-stop proof is changed.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 6d112c74cf fix(native): do not charge a restart resume that never started the provider (#19747)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs have an execution recovery budget of three provider
attempts, so a run that keeps failing stops retrying
> - #19720 stopped charging a crash restart when the previous restart
resume made progress
> - In a crash loop (several kills within seconds), the controller can
die again before the resumed execution starts its runner
> - The next claim then charged that resume, although it used no
provider work
> - This pull request does not charge a resume that never started; the
next claim replaces it
> - The benefit is that fast restart bursts do not exhaust a healthy
run's budget, and the generation cap still bounds real loops

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19720, #19625

**What happened?**
In a restart-chaos storm wave, 8 runs still reached
`execution_recovery_budget_exhausted`, mostly in K6 crash loops (three
kills in about 20 seconds). Example: a Codex run was claimed at
generation 9, attempt 3. The controller was killed 6 seconds later,
before the executor recorded `native.process_start_requested`. The next
claim found no progress after generation 9's position, charged, and
blocked the run at attempt 3. The recorded history of the blocked runs
shows that almost every charge after the first restart was for a resume
with no start evidence (no runner request and no runner event) before
the next claim. Two runs were blocked at generation 12, the existing
cap.

**Expected behavior**
A resume that never started the provider consumed nothing and must not
be charged. A resume that started and then made no progress must still
be charged. The generation-12 cap stays.

**Steps to reproduce**
Start a native run. Kill the server during the run. Let a restart resume
do work. Then kill the server repeatedly within seconds, before each new
controller starts the runner. After one or two such bursts the run is
blocked with `execution_recovery_budget_exhausted`.

## What Changed

- `native-restart-recovery.ts`: `restartResumeKeepsAttempt()` replaces
`previousResumeMadeProgress()`. It reads the previous claim's recorded
`progressWatermarkSeq` and `progressAttempt`
(`lastRecoveryClaimResume()`).
- New `nativeExecutionStartedSince()`: after the watermark, it looks for
`native.process_start_requested`, `native.process_identity_recorded`,
`adapter.invoke`, `tool.execution.started`, or any event with a runner
`source_event_id`. This is the same start evidence as
`hasNativeExecutionStartEvidence()`, limited to events after the
watermark.
- When the previous resume never started, the claim keeps the attempt if
the run is already at the attempt that resume was to run as. If the
executor never applied that charge (killed before its execution lease),
the claim charges once, so the run reaches that attempt and never goes
above it.
- When the previous resume started, the #19720 progress rule applies
unchanged.
- The generation-12 cap applies to both rules.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md` states the rule.

## Verification

New tests in
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts`
(embedded Postgres, real `claimNativeRestartRecoveries`):

- `does not charge for a resume killed before it started the provider
(after the executor took its lease)`: one progress resume, then four
crash claims with no start evidence. The attempt stays 2. A resume that
starts and fails then charges to 3. Red on master (charged to 3, then
blocked).
- `... (before the executor took its lease)`: the same with the lease
never taken. Green on master and with the fix, as a guard.
- `charges the owed attempt once when an unstarted first resume is
replaced`: the replacement claim charges once (attempt 2).
- `bounds a crash loop that never starts the provider`: blocks after the
generation cap. Red on master (blocked at the third claim).
- The #19720 tests now record `native.process_start_requested` in their
resumes, as a real resume does.
- `native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts`,
`heartbeat-native-restart-suspension.test.ts`,
`native-restart-recovery-isolation.test.ts`,
`native-remote-retry-admission.test.ts`: 231 passed, 14 skipped.
- `tsc --noEmit` for `server` has no errors in the changed files.

## Risks

- A crash that happens before the runner start, every time, gets free
resumes until generation 12. Then the budget applies. This is the same
bound as the progress rule.
- Start evidence is the executor's durable
`native.process_start_requested` record, written before any backend may
spawn a runner. If an older path launched a provider without it, that
resume would be treated as unstarted until the generation cap.

DottaandPaperclip f673bd3cb5 fix(native): verify legacy harness filesystem independence (#19748)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native sessions retain provider checkpoints and recovery state
across turns.
> - Server replacement must preserve every remaining local data
dependency.
> - A legacy backup stamp can outlive a destroyed provider and an absent
local backup.
> - Surviving skill files can already have exact immutable package
copies.
> - Raw controller files also contain stream events that database
checkpoints omit.
> - This pull request records verified filesystem independence under the
original-volume maintenance owner.
> - Replacement startup checks durable bindings while existing resume
failures and policies remain intact.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19715, #19729, #19733.

**What happened?**

Startup treats every retained legacy backup stamp without a current
backup row as a local filesystem dependency. This also blocks sessions
whose provider was already destroyed and whose remaining local skill
bytes have exact durable copies.

**Expected behavior**

An authorized maintenance owner can prove that an exact retained source
has no uncovered local harness payload. Startup can use that proof after
replacement. The proof must preserve failed recovery state and must not
invent a provider backup.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Retain a terminal native session, its checkpoint, and its legacy
backup stamp.
2. Record exact canonical destroyed-provider receipts. Keep only
admitted immutable skill files on the original host.
3. Publish the owner-verified independence receipt. The old startup
predicate still blocks; the updated predicate validates its durable
bindings.

## What Changed

- Add an internal original-volume capability. It requires a private
nonce anchor, independently reviewed attachment evidence, current
reserved runtime identity, and a witness that is at most 120 seconds
old.
- Verify retained and selected-source inputs, checkpoints, leases,
destroyed-provider receipts, released ownership, and exact immutable
skill references.
- Inspect canonical persistence roots and compare surviving skill bytes
and modes. Refuse any provider directory present outside the current
persistence profile, including an old Codex home after a
preconfigured-home switch. Unknown data, backups, history, owners, or
source changes still block publication.
- Preserve raw controller and supervisor bytes through the existing
encrypted evidence archive owner. Match recovery records to the database
checkpoint, authenticate the exact archive row, and compare the original
bytes again before publication. The archive grants no executable
authority.
- Publish one audited receipt with source locks and a final comparison.
Keep original files, stamps, warnings, statuses, and session pointers. A
late capture retains a valid published winner and refuses an invalid
receipt.
- Validate published receipts from current database bindings on
replacement hosts. Add no startup filesystem probe, object read,
provider call, or recurring worker.

## Verification

- Genuine baseline regression: restore the original startup predicate
while keeping the actual receipt owner. The positive
PostgreSQL/filesystem case fails with expected `false`, actual `true`
after valid publication. Restore the changed predicate; the case passes.
- Final rebased head `e78f4b4424`: 42 affected PostgreSQL/filesystem
cases pass. This includes 32 owner guards, three paired continuation
cases, six existing failed-source archive controls, and one existing
lease-verified backup migration control. The other 113 tests in the
selected existing files were explicitly unselected.
- Genuine controller baseline: the unchanged prior owner publishes no
raw archive and accepts missing checkpoint parts. Both new regressions
fail. The repair passes encrypted byte-for-byte controller/supervisor
restore, missing checkpoint, foreign source, active source, and
changed-after-upload controls.
- Genuine omitted-provider baseline: the unchanged owner accepts old
Codex, OpenCode, and ACPX history after a preconfigured-home switch. All
three refusal cases fail. The fix passes those cases and permits
preconfigured execution with no omitted directory.
- Genuine late-publication baseline: both concurrent winner tests fail
before the repair. The repair keeps the existing valid receipt, refuses
an invalid one, and keeps one audit event. A delayed raw upload also
retains the first authenticated archive and its receipt.
- Capability controls: 12 passed, including empty replacement refusal,
stale or future evidence, changed deployment, missing volume, path
aliases, changed anchor, and current remount identity.
- The actual server-to-Runner boundary preserves explicit recovery
policy on original and empty homes. The separate actual CREATED-sandbox
preparation callback preserves checkpoint identity and policy without a
backup. Provider I/O and final transport construction are controlled.
- Warm sessions retain the same canonical refusal on both homes, make no
backend/provider attempt, and retain the saved checkpoints.
- Server TypeScript, module boundary checks, diff checks, and a
private-data scan pass. The Runner TypeScript build was refreshed after
rebase to include two new upstream exports.
- Fresh Greptile review is 5/5 with no unresolved threads on
`e78f4b44240b0fc33c2fd7cae2d5b4a2578e3153`; check `128330103712`
completed successfully. Required CI remains pending. No live
preservation or enrollment action ran.

Focused command from `server/`:

```sh
node ../cli/node_modules/tsx/dist/cli.mjs ../packages/db/src/test-postgres-command.ts -- node ../node_modules/vitest/vitest.mjs run src/services/native-runtime/native-harness-filesystem-independence.integration.test.ts src/services/native-runtime/native-harness-filesystem-independence-continuation.integration.test.ts src/services/native-runtime/native-controller-migration.integration.test.ts src/services/native-runtime/native-harness-backup-storage.integration.test.ts --testNamePattern 'owner-verified|legacy harness continuation|preserves a failed source online|migrates a lease-verified' --hookTimeout 90000 --maxWorkers 1 --fsModuleCache
```

## Risks

- This proves that no uncovered harness payload remains local. It does
not recover provider history or certify that no other copy exists.
Existing governed-wait and warm-session failures remain.
- Unknown providers, retained owners, extra payloads, missing
references, or changed source bindings fail closed. Invalid receipts
require investigation; this change does not repair or replace them
automatically.
- The maintenance capability requires independently reviewed Railway
attachment evidence. The original anchor remains stable across normal
releases; each new staging invocation needs current deployment and mount
evidence.
- Startup validation adds bounded per-scope database reads. It pages
candidate scopes and caps each source history at 500 rows. Measure the
affected cohort's actual startup latency on the qualified serving build
before enrollment.
- Raw archives use the existing backup ledger, encryption, retention,
and restore machinery. They preserve evidence only. They do not repair
missing provider history or grant a new resume policy.
- Local tests control provider and transport boundaries. Live staging
remains a separate step after review, merge, normal delivery, and a
fresh original-volume capability.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository tools, and local
code/test execution. The exact runtime variant and context-window limit
are not exposed in this session.

96bc021edb fix(server): certify settled legacy processes for future retries (#19377)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Bounded retries must preserve current authority, budgets and
deadlines.
> - The tenant can wait for supported future work after the source
process and its cleanup stop.
> - Retained process identity alone cannot prove that cleanup finished.
> - This change records host-owned settlement and checks its exact
identity before a retry can cover its wait.
> - Uncertain process state, changed authority, live claims and cleanup
debt keep the tenant awake.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19001. Related dependencies: #19019 and #18988. Related #19340
covers explicit Native task Retry; this change covers future Legacy
process retries.

Current integrated source: `1645970a9322d1213ba25fc7b52366c285682977`,
normally merged with actual master
`131b566ca4fa866c4348739c75cfe48c805b3398`. The prerequisites above are
merged. This PR targets `master`.

**What happened?**

A future issue, company or review retry can retain its failed source
process identity. The deadline reader could not prove that host cleanup
finished. Supported waits stayed blocked. Ordinary issue retries also
needed an exact source-settlement check, and represented coalesced
requests needed exact input coverage.

**Expected behavior**

A supported future retry covers only its existing wait, under current
company and actor authority, after exact host settlement. Missing,
malformed, stale, cancelled, Native or unfinished source state stays
blocked. No retry gains new execution authority.

**Steps to reproduce**

Fail an ordinary process or fail environment preparation before adapter
entry. Let normal cleanup schedule the existing retry. Inspect its
settlement and deadline, stop and reconstruct the owner, and admit one
useful successor at the saved deadline. Hold cleanup or change authority
to verify that the reader refuses coverage.

## What Changed

- Add nullable internal `legacyProcessSettlement` state through normally
generated migration `0439_cultured_impossible_man`. No backfill or
adapter result creates the record.
- Write exact host settlement after stopped-process and cleanup checks.
Compare the current run and reject live claims or cleanup debt. Optional
persistence failure preserves normal cleanup and keeps sleep coverage
blocked.
- Add a separate preparation receipt for a claimed Legacy run that
failed before any adapter or Native dispatch. Require the same boot, run
times, preparing stage, released claim and completed cleanup. A null PID
alone proves nothing.
- Clear settlement on a new claim, process metadata or Native selection.
Omit the internal record from public serialized data.
- Check exact source lineage and current authority for ordinary issue,
company and taskless retries. Cover completed coalesced requests only
when the admitted retry represents their exact inputs.
- Add the closed `current_review_retry` wait with current reviewer,
stage and existing issue authority checks. Require a nonempty current
stage ID.
- Add actual producer, cold reconstruction, SQL negative, redaction and
optional-persistence controls.
- Repair CI fixture expectations for the additive column, startup mock,
budget owner and popup return URL. Bind the controlled Native comment
server explicitly to loopback.
- Replace temporary Slack clock logging with an exact persisted-deadline
assertion. Wait until that real deadline before the existing single
default poll. Keep both forced polls, business assertions and timing
limits.

## Verification

- On final integrated source `1645970a`, normal Shared/SDK
prerequisites, Runner TypeScript and the entire normal App layered
typecheck pass. Tracked source and lockfile remain unchanged.
- All 26 whole-file settlement, recovery-reader and bootstrap controls
pass. Seven separate real PostgreSQL producer/negative cases pass at
`cf16c6a`; each has one selected passing case and 18 filtered
registrations. Filtered registrations are not acceptance.
- Master then changed the preparation source-lock scope. Its three
intersecting cases were rerun on final `1645970a`: an actual failed
company process, an actual failed ordinary issue process, and held
preparation cleanup. Each preserves its source identity and original
deadline and admits one useful successor. Issue and preparation cases
exercise normal automatic retry; the company case uses the normal
explicit bounded-retry producer.
- The unchanged 26 controls and four other PostgreSQL cases retain their
`cf16c6a` proof after a scoped source comparison. Optional
settlement/preparation persistence failures keep certification blocked
while normal cleanup completes. An entered adapter without process
identity stays uncertified. This is scoped carry, not a claim that every
earlier case ran again on the final head.
- All recorded test owners and controlled groups closed. Final read-only
SQL audits returned no test sessions. One earlier postcase resource
barrier observed a transient unattributed database backend; that
database and original evidence remain preserved. Its later disappearance
is recovery, not an explained cause. No assertion, deadline or test body
was relaxed.
- Migration0439 was generated normally after master history. All
executable SQL and journal history are preserved; the five retained
snapshots are0435–0439. Every Legacy-owned patch and unrelated
actual-master blob/mode is preserved.
- Published exact head `1645970a9322d1213ba25fc7b52366c285682977` passes
all current required checks: 68 successful contexts and eight expected
skips after exhaustive pagination and superseded-run accounting. The
fresh complete Greptile review scores this exact head 5/5. All four
inline review threads are resolved. The latest Ponytail turn stopped
without a verdict; one normal retry was requested, with no active turn
or new finding observed. No old-head score is used. The original
old-base policy failure, its dependent aggregate failure, and the
corrected description-gate failure remain recorded. No full local
repository suite is claimed; remote typecheck, test and build gates
pass.

To repeat the real database coverage, set both
`PAPERCLIP_RECOVERY_DEADLINES_TEST_DATABASE_URL` and
`PAPERCLIP_RECOVERY_DEADLINES_TEST_ADMIN_DATABASE_URL` to the same fresh
dedicated test database and run the selected
`recovery-deadline-acceptance.test.ts` cases with one worker. An unset
URL, skipped case or filtered registration is not acceptance.

The fixtures use controlled local processes and real PostgreSQL.
Reconstruction creates new service owners inside the same test process.
They do not prove deployed Cloud alarms, physical host/database
suspension, new-host recovery or Native capacity settlement. The
original30-second retry remains below the Cloud270-second minimum wake
lead.

The merge projection also includes actual master
`c3180398faca815fed7a62674bd4b0c4e88884ae`, whose common completion path
now sends deferred/recovery notifications. Its unpublished normal merge
tree is `16b028d57150f8caa576e913f38343a365b542dd`. Normal Shared/SDK,
Runner TypeScript and the full App graph pass on that combined source.
One unchanged ordinary-issue acceptance case was rerun there: an actual
failed process retains the original automatic retry deadline, admits one
useful successor, and passes the settlement, authority and no-duplicate
assertions. It passed in 45.055 s; 18 filtered registrations are not
acceptance. All known owners and groups closed, and the independent
final database audit found zero remaining test sessions. The successful
database was removed normally. Recorded worker socket peak is
unavailable for this run; parent-process zero values are not used as
worker measurements. All 29 Legacy-owned paths and every unrelated
master blob and mode are preserved.

Two outside-diff review observations concern existing waiting-chat
compaction and cross-host Native result-lease recovery. Their files are
byte-identical to current master. This focused Legacy change does not
fix or qualify those separate paths.

## Risks

Settlement proves exact local closure. It does not cover live provider
work, Native ownership, cancellation, costs, claims, cleanup debt or
changed authority. Independent checks remain.

Ship normal migration0439 with the reader and writer. Preserve
executable history and the newest five snapshots0435–0439. Generate the
MCP child's next migration normally after this parent.

The prerequisites are merged; the final remote checks must use this
integrated exact head. This proof uses controlled local processes and
external PostgreSQL. It does not establish deployed Cloud alarm
acceptance, physical host or database suspension, cold host recovery, or
R5 Native capacity settlement. The30-second retry is below the Cloud
minimum wake lead.

This focused repair follows the roadmap's bounded recovery and Cloud
deployment work. It adds no new provider policy.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` assisted with readers, fixtures, source review and
verification through Codex. A coordinating GPT-6-family agent
implemented and reviewed shared lifecycle wiring and integration. Tools
included Git, native TypeScript checks and controlled tests. Exact
served revisions and context limits were not exposed.

c3180398fa fix(native): resume a remote Runner after a settled suspension
fix(native): resume a remote Runner after a settled suspension

A scheduled checkpoint retry can retain a remote reattach claim after
closing its failed predecessor cleanly suspends and exits the Runner.
Resume only that exact settled source after confirmed exit and a fresh
identity/state check. Preserve pending work and uncertain-exit fences.

Admit the last already-charged provider attempt and share one bounded
recovery deadline with the final state read, retaining closed diagnostic
labels on read failures. Cover fresh ACPX Runner relaunch on attempts
two and three through actual processes and the durable close barrier.

Six affected suites pass 1,579 tests, with 14 environment-gated skips;
all server typecheck layers pass on Node 25.6.1. The complete provider
turn continuation failure remains preserved as follow-up #19751.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 e620ce3678 fix(heartbeat): deliver each accepted follow-up exactly once through restarts and admission holds (#19741)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A user can comment, click Retry, or rely on automatic recovery while
an agent works on a task
> - Restart-chaos waves showed accepted follow-ups being dropped, or
delivered twice, around restarts and temporary company admission holds
(accounting still settling after a restart)
> - A dropped comment means the user's request is never acted on. A
duplicate reopens work that is already done
> - This pull request makes accepted work wait through a temporary hold
and resume when it clears. It also stops a comment from being promoted
again after a completed run already received it
> - The benefit is that each accepted follow-up is delivered exactly
once, eventually, unless the task is cancelled or a reached hard stop
applies

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19702 (never-started tasks during a temporary hold), #19700
(bounded accounting hold), #14910 (stale reopen from a deferred wake; no
file overlap).

**What happened?**
Restart-chaos waves found these shapes:
1. **Comment wake cancelled.** A comment was saved behind a run and
promoted when the run ended. A temporary company hold refused the
unstarted queued run, and claim cancelled it terminally. The recovery
wake that followed was cancelled the same way, and the task rested
`blocked` without the comment.
2. **Dead Retry.** A Retry click during the hold stayed
`deferred_issue_execution` after the hold cleared. Nothing woke it, and
the issue held no execution lock.
3. **Refused assignment.** A new task's first wake was refused during
the hold. Nothing woke stranded-work recovery when the hold cleared, so
the task stayed `todo` with no run.
4. **Silent comment after recovery.** A comment was saved behind a run
that restart recovery finalized. A company-scoped hint waited out the 30
s deferred-receipt rescan, so the task looked done with the message
unread.
5. **Comment delivered twice.** A run whose provider process was lost
had a saved comment. Its retry started after the comment, received it in
its prompt (task history), did the work, and finished the task. The
saved wake was then promoted anyway, which reopened the done task.

**Expected behavior**
An accepted follow-up (comment, Retry, recovery) is delivered exactly
once, eventually, unless the task is cancelled. A temporary refusal
never ends in a terminal cancel, skip, or block. Reaching a hard stop
remains the board's decision.

## What Changed

- `heartbeat/queue.ts`: on a budget block at claim, an unstarted queued
run stays queued when the block is temporary. A reached hard stop or
blocked unpriced usage still cancels it.
- `recovery/service.ts`: stranded-work recovery waits out a temporary
hold for any task. It does not escalate to `blocked`. This extends
#19702 beyond never-started tasks.
- `budget-block-ownership.ts`: a shared `isBoardOwnedBudgetBlock`, moved
out of the recovery service. `budgets.ts` is unchanged.
- `run-cost-accounting.ts`: settling a run's accounting wakes queued-run
dispatch, the deferred-receipt worker, and stranded-work recovery. Held
work waits passively; this is what resumes it.
- `deferred-execution-notifications.ts`: new
`notifyDeferredWakesForIssue`. `native-run-projection.ts` (a run
reaching a terminal status) and `environments.ts` (lease release) now
hint each saved wake of the issue by id, so delivery does not wait out
the company rescan interval.
- `wake-queue/adapters/postgres.ts`: release treats a saved comment as
delivered only when a succeeded run of the wake's agent on that issue
started after the comment's latest revision, and either received the
comment as its own wake input (`wakeCommentIds`) or was a retry of the
interrupted turn whose task history included it. In that case it cancels
the saved wake with "Queued messages were already delivered to a
completed run" and leaves the task as it is. Task history alone never
consumes a message saved for its own turn. One query checks the whole
batch.
- `run-cost-accounting.ts`: settling late receipt debt also sends the
hold-release notifications.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: documents the rule.

## Verification

Red on `master` and green with this change, on embedded Postgres:
- `server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-held-comment-wake.test.ts`:
- A promoted comment refused by the hold stays pending, with no
cancelled run and no `blocked` task. It is delivered once after the hold
clears through real `accountRunCost`.
- A Retry clicked during the hold starts exactly once after accounting
settles, which wakes its owner.
- A new task whose assignment was refused during the hold starts once
accounting settles, which wakes stranded-work recovery.
- A comment that a later succeeded retry already received as history, or
that a later run received as wake input, is consumed without reopening
the task.
- Guard tests (green on both):
- A comment is still delivered in each of these cases: the later run
never received it, it was edited after that run started, it was posted
while the run was already running, or a non-retry run only saw it as
history.
  - A task whose continuation was refused waits out the hold.
  - A reached hard stop is still refused.
- `server/src/__tests__/native-run-projection-work.test.ts`: projecting
a recovered run terminal hints the saved comment's own wake (red on
`master`).
- Related suites pass locally (14 files, 482 tests): wake-queue, queued
comments routes, refused assignment wake, native run projection.
- Live replays (local, unmasked, kept instances):
- `--replay w-20261107T031005-s7501/t04` (Claude C1, K1): PASS. The
comment's run was created at 03:56:24 during the hold, stayed queued,
started at 04:06:24 when the hold cleared, and succeeded. It is the only
run carrying the comment.
- `--replay w-20261107T002911-s7401/t01` (before the per-wake hint): it
reproduced shape 4. Run 592d772f was killed 250 ms after
`run.result.accepted`, released and finalized at restart, and the task
rested `done` with the comment still saved. Calling the existing sweep
on the kept database promoted it, which confirmed that the missing piece
was the trigger.

## Risks

- A queued run can now sit queued for the length of a temporary hold,
which #19700 bounds. It does not hold the issue's execution lock, so
later comments still coalesce into it.
- The delivered-comment rule depends on the run's recorded prompt
context. A succeeded run that received the comment in its history counts
as delivery, even if the agent did not act on it. This matches
exactly-once delivery semantics.
- Settling accounting now emits three extra notifications per run. They
are coalesced per company.

## Model Used

Claude Code with tool use (shell, file editing, local test execution,

DottaandPaperclip 18b6b71d83 fix(native): refresh per-turn projections from the selected checkpoint (#19744)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Per-turn native sessions save controller checkpoints and suspended
Runner backups under separate owners.
> - A local controller projection can still name the first turn after
the next turn has saved its checkpoint and backup.
> - The old per-turn restore path selected that stale local reference
instead of the newer canonical source.
> - Admission then saw different turn identities and archived the valid
backup with the old projection.
> - This change uses the canonical selected checkpoint and the existing
finished-owner proof before it replaces a stale projection.
> - The benefit is that a third turn keeps the valid saved conversation
and backup.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

After two successful per-turn remote runs, a third turn could fail
before provider execution with unavailable provider resume state. The
selected database checkpoint and suspended backup belonged to the second
run. The local controller projection still belonged to the first run.

**Expected behavior**

The selected checkpoint must govern controller rehydration. Preserve the
older projection and the selected run's backup. Do not overwrite
current, newer, foreign, changed or unsettled ownership evidence.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Save two real controller checkpoints for one per-turn conversation
and finish both owners.
2. Leave the first checkpoint's readable projection or external marker
beside the second run's suspended backup.
3. Admit the third run through the real canonical selector and backend
owner.
4. Before this change, admission archives the active backup with the
stale projection and leaves no active controller state.

Related: #18018 added per-turn controller restoration. #18718 refreshed
warm projections. #18846 added finished-owner retirement. This change
keeps the selected per-turn source from entering that retirement path
because of an older projection. The open warm-only change #18436
concerns a different restart branch.

## What Changed

- Resolve the canonical source before refreshing a prior per-turn
controller projection.
- Re-read it under the existing sorted coordinator locks. Replacing an
older owner reuses finished-owner checks for both runs and verifies
their full session scope. A same-source marker only rehydrates its exact
selected identity before the normal retained-sandbox verification.
- Recheck the exact initial local bytes after asynchronous reads and
lock waits. Preserve the old control-plane directory in the existing
archive, while keeping the newer backup and provider files active.
- Restore a current-run external marker only from its own checkpoint
before the existing bootstrap retry proof. A missing current checkpoint
cannot select a previous turn. Retain readable current-run, legacy
file-backed, backup integrity and provider resume checks.
- Stage the existing OpenCode proxy bytes into the controlled
fake-sandbox filesystem in the real ingress-retry fixture. Keep remote
artifact path and digest checks unchanged.
- Add real PostgreSQL/filesystem coverage for Codex and ACPX, readable
projections and external markers, missing or corrupt parts, held owners,
foreign scope, newer history and a current owner arriving during a real
coordinator-lock wait.

## Verification

- Baseline RED: the two new readable-projection cases failed against
unchanged production code because active control-plane state was absent
after admission. The real selector selected the second run. Setup
failures were separate and are not counted as RED.
- Exact final existing per-turn restore, active-owner refresh and
retained-owner wait controls: 19/19 passed in 5.91s.
- Exact final local source (`fd8d9d9021`, based on `131b566ca4`): 58/58
real PostgreSQL/filesystem and native Runner tests passed in 31.58s.
This includes both existing ingress bootstrap retries through the real
Runner and fake Codex/OpenCode providers, plus 56 focused owner cases.
Cargo validated and rebuilt current source from a private APFS clone of
an unqualified local cache; the original cache was untouched. A private
local configuration resolves workspace DB, Shared and Runner sources
without replacing behavior. The local CLI allowed a 90s setup hook; no
default timeout changed.
- Exact final full server and test-tree TypeScript check with Runner
source paths: passed. The stock fresh-worktree check first failed on
unbuilt Runner declaration entries; no product types were changed to
hide that setup gap.
- Exact final module-boundary and diff-whitespace checks: passed.
- Native-server CI RED on the previous head: both real ingress retry
cases failed because a current-run marker was returned without
hydration. The aggregate gate failed from that one underlying lane. The
correction preserves the own-checkpoint bootstrap path. The first local
OpenCode attempt hit a controller-host fixture path guard before its
intended failure; staging the same proxy bytes into the fake sandbox
made both native cases pass.
- Review regression RED: the real retained-sandbox fixture failed at
`sandbox_resumed` on the first PR head. GREEN: the corrected owner
hydrates the same-source marker and reaches the existing exact
retained-lease/suspended-runner read. A mismatched item identity still
refuses before any remote read.
- Local environment: macOS arm64, Node 26.4.0, PostgreSQL 18.1. Provider
execution is deliberately outside this admission fixture. The real
three-turn workflow still needs verification on the normally deployed
fixed source.

## Risks

- Refresh requires settled, committed, released and stopped or fenced
owners. Missing or changed evidence remains blocked.
- The refresh holds existing coordinator locks while it validates
bounded controller state. It performs no provider calls.
- The old control-plane bytes remain in the archive. A restore write
failure still fails admission; it does not reset provider state.
- Final-head full CI is green, including typecheck, build, Rust,
native-server, server and browser suites; Greptile is 5/5 with no
unresolved threads. Hosted deployment and continuity verification remain
separate acceptance steps. A successful replacement conversation is not
proof of provider continuity; hosted continuity acceptance is still
pending.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with code execution and repository tools.
The host does not expose the exact backend model ID or context-window
size.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 24cbea136f fix(native): export OpenCode launch artifacts through a confined workspace copy (#19743)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native recovery saves the qualified OpenCode launch files so a cold
allocation can resume the same session (#19622)
> - Core reads those files from the sandbox with the provider's bulk
`syncOut`
> - The launch root is under the sandbox account home, not under the
workspace remote dir
> - Daytona, Kubernetes, and CreateOS confine every export source to the
workspace remote dir, so the export always fails
> - Every remote OpenCode run on a durable-storage instance now fails
40-90 s after start with `native_session_interrupted`
> - This pull request exports a confined scratch copy of the three
launch files from inside the workspace runtime dir
> - The benefit is that remote OpenCode runs work again, and the
provider confinement guard stays unchanged

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19622

**What happened?**

After #19622, every remote OpenCode run on Daytona fails at provider
admission. The run error is `Daytona sync source path escapes the
workspace remote dir:
/home/daytona/.paperclip-runtime/paperclip-runner/provider-artifacts/<digest>`.
The error code is `native_session_interrupted`. The last successful run
of the affected agent was immediately before #19622 reached the
deployment.

**Expected behavior**

Core saves the qualified launch files and the run continues. The
provider confinement guard still refuses any export source outside the
workspace remote dir.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Configure an OpenCode agent on a Daytona environment with durable
harness storage.
2. Start a run.
3. The run fails when Core captures the provider artifacts, before the
first turn.

## What Changed

- `captureRemoteNativeProviderArtifacts` now takes the workspace
`remoteCwd`.
- Before the export, a sandbox command copies the three launch files
into a new scratch directory at
`<remoteCwd>/.paperclip-runtime/paperclip-runner/provider-artifact-export/<uuid>/`.
The command refuses a symlink or a non-regular file. It uses `cp -P`, so
it never follows a link.
- `syncOut` reads from that scratch copy. A `finally` step removes the
scratch copy after success or failure. A failed removal is logged and
does not replace the transfer result.
- The launch root does not move. OpenCode still binds to the same
absolute paths. Core still verifies each downloaded byte against the
manifest SHA-256 values.
- `.paperclip-runtime` is already excluded from workspace sync, so the
scratch copy never enters the user workspace.
- The Daytona `assertConfinedSandboxPath` guard is not changed.

## Verification

- New regression
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-provider-artifact-capture-confinement.test.ts`.
It runs the real sandbox commands on a local directory tree that has a
home-rooted launch root and a separate workspace. Its `syncOut` applies
the same workspace confinement rule as the Daytona provider.
- Before the fix: it fails with `Daytona sync source path escapes the
workspace remote dir:
.../home/daytona/.paperclip-runtime/paperclip-runner/provider-artifacts/dfe9e4b1d660/bin/nodeCommand`.
This is the staging error.
- After the fix: it passes. The published bytes match, every export
source is under the workspace runtime dir, and the scratch directory is
empty after the capture.
- Safety cases: a failed transfer removes the scratch copy and does not
publish. A launch file replaced by a symlink is refused before any
export, and nothing is published.
- `native-session-executor.test.ts`: the durable OpenCode admission case
now asserts that the capture receives `remoteCwd` and that every
`syncOut` source is under `/workspace/`.
- `pnpm vitest run` for the capture, confinement, remote OpenCode
artifact, and session root entries tests: 14 passed.
- `vitest run native-session-executor.test.ts -t "opencode|provider
artifact|durable"`: 62 passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`: passed.
- Not run: a live Daytona run with this revision. The fix is not
deployed to staging.

## Risks

- Low risk. The capture now runs two short `sh` commands in the sandbox
and holds a second copy of the launch files during the transfer. The
files are bounded by the existing 512 MiB limit and are deleted
afterwards.
- The scratch copy uses `cp -P`, `mkdir`, and `rm -rf` from POSIX `sh`.
The Daytona image already uses these tools for the workspace sync.
- If the sandbox stops between the copy and the removal, a scratch
directory can remain under `.paperclip-runtime`. Workspace sync excludes
that directory.

Code with tool use (shell, file edit, and read-only browser access to
staging).

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 9f0ebf6f70 fix(accounting): close a run whose turn was lost on restore, and stop succeeded runs holding all work (#19724)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Budgets hold new work while the cost of completed runs is unknown
> - In a restart chaos wave, a native ACPX Claude run crossed a server
kill, resumed, and succeeded. Its usage receipt never became complete.
> - For the 10-minute closure bound, admission refused all work in the
company. This included tasks that never crossed a fault.
> - This pull request fixes the receipt for a turn that was lost on
restore. It also stops a succeeded run from holding all new work.
> - The benefit: one late usage report no longer freezes a company, and
hard stops still apply.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19700 (the accounting closure bound that this follows).

**What happened?**
A native ACPX Claude run crossed a server SIGKILL in the middle of a
turn. The Runner restored the session, and the run succeeded 54 seconds
after it started. All 17 usage receipts stayed incomplete. Accounting
settled the run only at the 10-minute closure bound. During those 10
minutes, admission refused all company work with "Company cannot start
work while completed runs await accounting".

**Root cause**
ACPX reports provisional usage (`runDeltaComplete: false`) until a turn
ends. The kill lost the turn that was active, so that turn never got a
complete report. The restored Runner failed that turn with
`provider_turn_lost_on_restore`. Native turn accounting
(`createNativeTurnAccounting`) required every terminal turn to have
usage, so this turn kept every later receipt incomplete. This was true
even after the continuation turn completed with full usage. The
admission gate then counted the succeeded run as a pending terminal run
for the whole company.

**Expected behavior**
The receipt closes when the run's turns end. A turn that was lost on
restore makes the usage a lower bound. A succeeded run with only usage
outstanding does not hold other work.

## What Changed

- `native-usage-accounting.ts`: a turn that failed with
`provider_turn_lost_on_restore` and has no complete usage no longer
holds the receipt open. The snapshot marks `accountingUsageLost`.
- `native-session-executor.ts` and `native-usage-delivery.ts`: such a
receipt carries the provenance note "a provider turn was lost on restore
and never reported its usage; observed usage is a lower bound".
- `anthropic-pricing.ts` and `codex-pricing.ts`: the rate-card pricers
keep a producer's provenance note.
- `native-usage-delivery.ts` and `usage-receipts.ts`: remote producer
delivery keeps a `lostOnRestore` marker on the receipt's producer event,
so replay also excuses the lost turn. Receipts saved without the marker
still replay.
- `budget-exposure.ts` and `budgets.ts`: admission waits only for
pending runs that ended without succeeding (`waitingRunCount`). A
succeeded run whose provider reported observed usage is bounded like a
running run: its observed cost counts toward spend and reservation
capacity, and its settled charge can still reach the hard stop.
- `budget-exposure.ts`: a closure that timed out because of a
control-plane restart keeps the unpriced-usage exemptions, whatever its
token count. Restart evidence is a replaced receipt source, a native
recovery transition that is not an ordinary same-run retry, or a turn
lost on restore. A second chaos run showed the need. It recovered and
succeeded, but its final usage report was lost with the restart, so it
settled as unpriced 0 cents. The blocking policy then opened a hard
incident and paused the company. A timed-out closure with no restart
evidence still counts.
- `run-cost-accounting.ts`: a lost receipt that carries a positive
provider-reported cost settles at that cost as an estimate marked as a
lower bound, not as unpriced.
- `paperclip-runner-tool-authority.ts` and `budgets.ts`: a running run's
own tool mutations are evaluated as admitted work. Hard stops and pauses
still refuse them. Accounting holds, recovering runs and budget inputs
that await evaluation do not. In a third chaos run, a live run's write
to its task document was refused during a temporary hold, so the run
proposed a blocked result.
- `doc/SPEC-implementation.md`: documents these rules.

Policy choice: a succeeded run's provider work is over, so it has less
unknown spend than a running run. Running runs never held admission.
Failed, cancelled, timed-out and interrupted runs still hold new work,
because their provider may not have stopped. A per-agent gate would
still freeze unrelated work of the same agent. A per-reservation gate
does not help when `reservationCents` is 0, which was the case in this
wave.

## Verification

- Live: a restart chaos wave ran master plus this PR (c2a48fb1e0) with
no masking. It passed 6/6, and every task crossed a restart. There were
0 accounting holds, 0 refused agent writes, 0 company pauses, and every
cost settled as estimated.

- Red then green: `native-usage-accounting.test.ts`, "closes a run whose
earlier turn was lost on restore, as a lower bound". It uses the event
sequence of the chaos run.
- Red then green: `closed-native-receipt-accounting.test.ts`, "does not
hold other work for a succeeded run with only usage outstanding". It
also checks that the hard stop still applies.
- I changed "neither pauses nor holds admission while a succeeded run's
charge commits" to the new policy. A failed run in the same state still
holds new work.
- Red then green: `closed-native-receipt-accounting.test.ts`, "never
hard-stops a blocking policy for a restart-derived timed-out receipt".
It uses the zero-token row shape of the chaos run and a case with
unpriced tokens. Without the fix, the company was paused.
- Red then green: `runner-api.integration.test.ts`, "lets a running run
write during a temporary accounting hold, but not after a hard stop".
- Red then green: `closed-native-receipt-accounting.test.ts`, "does not
hold other work for the s7504 succeeded row shape".
- Red then green: `closed-native-receipt-accounting.test.ts`, "settles a
timed-out restart receipt at its provider-reported cost, without holding
or pausing". It uses the OpenCode/OpenRouter row shape from a fourth
chaos run.
- `anthropic-pricing.test.ts`: the rate-card provenance keeps the
lower-bound note.
- Local: `closed-native-receipt-accounting`, the budget suites,
`native-usage-accounting`, `native-usage-delivery.integration`,
`native-runner-restart-recovery.integration` and `anthropic-pricing` all
pass (187 tests). Server `tsc --noEmit` is clean. `pnpm verify` asks for
CI coverage because the spec changed.

## Risks

- A succeeded run whose final charge is higher than its observed cost
can let one more task start before the charge commits. The hard stop
then pauses the scope as it does for a running run that overruns.
- A run that includes a lost turn settles with a lower-bound usage
figure. The provenance says so, and a later receipt still reconciles
through the late-receipt path.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 464e6e16e0 fix(native): resume copyback after a restart kills its same-host owner; one board action otherwise (#19717)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs save the agent's workspace files after the provider turn
finishes (copyback)
> - One controller owns copyback at a time. The run records that owner
in `runnerProfileJson.nativeWorkspaceFinalizationOwner` (host, PID,
token)
> - A control-plane restart can kill the controller during copyback. The
dead controller can never confirm its own stop
> - Recovery then waited for a board confirmation. No surface offered
that confirmation, so the run stayed `running` and the task stayed
`in_progress` with no visible action
> - This pull request lets the next controller on the same host prove
the stop by itself. It also gives the board one clear action when that
proof is not possible
> - The benefit is that a restart during copyback resumes by itself, and
a task never waits silently for a person

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
In a Daytona restart-chaos wave, a kill during workspace copyback left
the run `running` and its task `in_progress`. Recovery reported
`native_workspace_finalization_owner_unverified`. The run was still
`running` when the wave timed out.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a native remote (sandbox) run.
2. Kill the control-plane process (SIGKILL) after the provider result is
accepted, during copyback.
3. Restart the control plane on the same host.

**Expected behavior**
If the previous controller and its copyback children are proven stopped
on this host, recovery resumes copyback without a new agent turn.
Otherwise, the task shows one board action to confirm that the previous
server stopped.

**Actual behavior**
The recorded owner was cleared only by
`resumeNativeWorkspaceAfterOwnerStop`. Same-host recovery also required
a completed-copyback barrier, which an interrupted copyback never has.
The task presentation showed `working`, and the UI had no control for
the confirmation.

Refs #19578 (boot-ID fencing for unstarted runs; same proof style).

## What Changed

- Root cause:
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-workspace-finalization-ownership.ts`
sent a dead same-host owner to `requireStopVerification` when no
`workspace_finalize` operation had succeeded. That case is exactly a
restart during copyback.
- New `native-workspace-owner-stop-proof.ts`. The owner receipt now
records the controller's process group (`processGroupId`). Copyback
children (tar, Git) are not detached, so they keep that group. A
successor on the same host releases the receipt only when the receipt
names another controller boot, the PID is dead or recycled (process
start time), and the group is empty or has no member outside the
successor's own process tree that started after the old controller. Age
alone never proves a stop.
- A still-live group member returns `local_stop_pending`. The
finalization worker rechecks it on its existing ownership recheck
interval. The board action stays visible meanwhile.
- A successful local proof writes `issue.workspace_owner_stop_verified`
with the proof and marks the recovery `resuming`, like the existing
platform proof.
- A receipt from another host, a receipt without a process group, or a
host without `ps` keeps the fence. The task interruption is now
`waiting_for_user` with `userAction: "confirm_owner_stop"` (new shared
enum value), not `working`.
- UI: the task chat shows one **Confirm the previous server stopped**
action. It asks for stop evidence and calls the existing
`resume-workspace-finalization` API. It is shown only to roles that hold
`runtime:confirm_owner_stop` (company owner or administrator, local
board, instance administrator). The inbox names the same action.
- The copyback advisory lock, the coordinator finalization lease, and
remote save fencing are unchanged.
- Docs: `doc/native-workspace-finalization-recovery.md`.

## Verification

- Red then green on embedded Postgres
(`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-workspace-finalizer.test.ts`):
- same-host controller killed with SIGKILL, its process group empty:
before `owner_unverified`, after `acquired` with the proof logged and no
agent wake
- a non-detached orphan child of the dead controller still runs:
`local_stop_pending`, no copyback; after the child exits, `acquired`
  - a receipt without a process group: still `owner_unverified`
- a foreign-host owner: the task presentation was `working` (red), now
`waiting_for_user` / `confirm_owner_stop`; after the board confirmation
it is `working` again
- The existing orphan test (a detached child) and all other finalizer
tests pass: `npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-workspace-finalizer.test.ts
src/__tests__/native-workspace-finalization-work.test.ts
src/services/task-interruption-presentation.test.ts` (135 passed).
- UI: `npx vitest run src/components/WorkspaceExportRecovery` (34
passed), including the action call body and the non-administrator case.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` clean. Server and UI typecheck clean for the
changed files.
- Live Daytona restart-chaos wave: results are added in a comment below.

## Risks

- A process-table check that reports a member wrongly as live only keeps
the existing fence. The board action is still available.
- A subreaper that adopts orphans does not change their process group,
so the proof does not depend on the parent PID.
- A child that a future change spawns with `detached: true` would leave
the group. Copyback paths do not do that today. The existing
detached-orphan test still fails closed, because a receipt without a
process group is not released.
- Old receipts have no process group. They keep the board action.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 7a72caeda1 perf(workspaces): batch online companion discovery (#19735)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Online workspace migration checks all local aliases before it
captures a source.
> - Each alias must retain its prepared runs and recovery holds in that
check.
> - The current reader scans the same company run table once for every
alias.
> - Shared Git sources repeat that scan even after the complete alias
group is known.
> - This pull request reads those narrow companion rows once per
inspection.
> - The existing owners still validate every source and recovery hold
before migration can proceed.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Online source qualification repeats the prepared and finalized run query
for each workspace alias. A shared Git source with four aliases makes
four copies of this query.

**Expected behavior**

One inspection should read the complete alias group once. It must return
the same source and recovery proofs, and a later inspection must read
fresh rows.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create a shared Git source with four aliases and a valid settled
prepared run.
2. Add a finalized companion and a recovery hold. Add a foreign-company
run that names the same workspace ID.
3. Inspect the source and count companion discovery queries. Before this
change, the regression sees four queries instead of one.

Related public work: [source ownership guards in
#19688](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/19688) and
[bounded accounting closure in
#19700](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/19700).

## What Changed

- Read prepared and finalized companion rows in one company-scoped query
after the complete alias group and foreign aliases pass validation.
- Group the narrow rows by workspace ID. Keep run order and all existing
source and recovery owner checks.
- Add a PostgreSQL regression for proof equivalence, one scan, company
isolation, and a new source obligation between inspections.
- Align an existing Stop-accounting test with the durable closure
deadline from #19700. Keep the incomplete debt, quiet database,
cancellation, and single-charge checks. Product workers and timers are
unchanged.

## Verification

- Before the source change, the new PostgreSQL test passed its proof
comparisons and failed because four companion scans ran instead of one.
- The two workspace suites pass: 77 tests in
`remote-workspace-online-source.test.ts` and
`online-legacy-workspace-recovery.test.ts`.
- CI exposed an old Stop-accounting assertion that expected no timer
while an incomplete receipt had an intentional closure deadline. Both
automatic CI attempts failed. The unchanged local variants passed, so
that run did not reproduce the failure. Waiting for the real owner
deadline then proved the stale assertion red.
- After the test alignment, both Stop-accounting variants and all 77
workspace tests passed together: 79 tests across three files. The three
unrelated Stop-recovery cases were not selected locally. Fresh CI covers
the complete suites.
- The affected suites cover retained recovery owners, foreign aliases,
physical source locks, and changes before publication.
- Tests use a disposable PostgreSQL 18.1 database. The local hook
allowance is 90 seconds. Product timeout settings are unchanged.
- Final head `0eed2e5062cbfb62df7f76168c27d2172fc2d7de`: [full
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42341640259)
passed, with 56 successful checks and four configured skips. [Fresh
Greptile
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/19735#issuecomment-6702476739)
is 5/5 with no open threads. This PR makes no claim about deployed
latency.

## Risks

- Each inspection now holds the narrow companion rows for the complete
alias group in memory. The existing alias group bound still applies.
- The query keeps the same company, workspace, and sync-state
predicates. There is no runtime filter, row limit, schema change, or
cache between inspections.
- No public command or API changes. Public documentation does not need
an update.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, exact model ID `gpt-6.1-sol`. Used reasoning, code
editing, shell tools, and test execution. The context window size is not
exposed by this environment.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 fc7e3a6503 fix(recovery): never replace a native session after a deterministic refusal (#19733)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native agent runs keep a saved provider session, and same-run
recovery resumes it after a failure
> - When resume fails and the checkpoint allows it, recovery archives
the saved continuity state and opens a fresh replacement session
> - Recovery used that path for every resume failure, including
deterministic refusals that left the saved state unchanged and repeat on
every retry
> - In five staging tasks a refusal (a protected launch argument, or a
predecessor tool call with no result) escalated into a replacement. The
remote archive move failed part way, the next attempt found no runner
state, and each task was blocked for workspace repair
> - This pull request stops before replacement after a closed-class
refusal, keeps the saved state, and hands the run to an operator with a
named reason
> - The benefit is that a deterministic refusal can no longer damage
saved state or open a replacement over an unsettled external action

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19659, Refs #19516, Refs #19334

**What happened?**
Five Codex tasks on Daytona sandboxes failed on staging. The first
attempt failed with a deterministic refusal:
- `run.attach cannot change protected launch arguments` (four tasks,
fixed separately in #19659), or
- `native_runner_source_semantic_reconciliation_required` with a
predecessor `paperclip_call_assigned_tool` call still pending (one
task).

The same-run retry then opened a replacement session.
`archiveContinuityState` failed with
`runner_continuity_break_archive_failed` and no detail. The third
attempt failed with `runner_remote_state_unavailable: exit=1`, and the
task was blocked with "Workspace repair required".

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Save a native session whose checkpoint policy is
`allow_replacement_after_resume_failure`.
2. Make the resume fail with a refusal that does not change state (an
attach refusal, or a pending tool call).
3. Same-run recovery opens a replacement session and archives the saved
continuity state.

**Expected behavior**
A deterministic refusal stops the run for an operator. The saved state
stays intact. A run with a pending side-effecting call never reaches
replacement. Transport drops keep the existing retry behavior.

**Root cause**
`executeNativeSession` checked only the checkpoint's replacement policy.
The closed failure class (#19334) only had an effect when replacement
was forbidden. Attach refusals and pending tool calls had no class at
all, and the source-reconciliation refusal was a plain `Error`.

## What Changed

- Runner (`provider_backend.rs`, `durable/mod.rs`): `run.attach`
refusals that would change the durable Codex profile or a protected
launch argument carry the closed classification
`provider_attach_refused`. An attach blocked by
`durable_pending_tool_calls` carries `provider_side_effect_pending`.
These refusals already leave the saved state unchanged.
- Contracts (`harness-driver.ts`): new closed classes
`PROVIDER_ATTACH_REFUSED` and `PROVIDER_SIDE_EFFECT_PENDING`. A typed
`NativeRunnerSourceReconciliationRequiredError` replaces the plain
`Error` at the five `native_runner_source_*_reconciliation_required`
throw sites. `runnerRecoveryFailureClass` reads the authenticated
command-result classification or the typed error, never message text.
- Runtime (`native-session-runtime.ts`): after either class, recovery
never opens a replacement session, whatever the checkpoint policy.
- An attach refusal ends with the existing
`NativeProviderStateIncompatibleError`, which maps to the existing
operator path `native_provider_state_incompatible`.
- A pending side effect ends with the new
`NativeProviderSideEffectPendingError`.
- Server (`native-session-executor.ts`, `native-session-resume.ts`,
shared `EXECUTION_RECONCILIATION_CAUSES`):
`native_provider_side_effect_pending` is a permanent failure and an
execution-reconciliation cause, so the board gets a reconciliation
(record whether the action ran) instead of a generic Retry. The
reconciled continuation does not rebind the saved session, which still
refuses attachment. It starts a fresh provider session in the same
workspace. The saved session and workspace are unchanged.
- Archive (`archiveContinuityState`): a failed remote move now records
the bounded (512 characters), redacted exit status and output in
`runner_continuity_break_archive_failed: exit=… timedOut=… <output>`.
The remote move already ran before the local move on `master`, so a
failed remote move leaves the local state in place.
`restart-interrupted-turn.ts` accepts the detailed message for its
reattachment-loss retry.
- Docs: `doc/execution-semantics.md` and
`packages/paperclip-runner/docs/durable-recovery.md` describe the new
rule.

## Verification

Red before the fix, green after (each test first run against unchanged
source from `origin/master` 644ee66f5d):

- `native-session-runtime.test.ts`, test "never replaces a session after
a deterministic, non-destructive recovery refusal". Red: replacement was
attempted (`TypeError: Invalid value used as weak map key` from the stub
replacement). Green: typed error, and `openReplacementSession`,
`openSession` and `openRun` are not called.
- `harness-driver-backend.test.ts`, test "keeps the runner's closed
class of a failed recovery". Red: the typed error did not exist. Green:
both new classes are read from the command result and from the typed
error. The same message text without the type stays unclassified.
- `tests/codex_provider.rs` (real durable executor and fake Codex
app-server):
-
`attach_with_a_pending_tool_call_is_classified_as_a_pending_side_effect`.
Red: `left: None, right: Some("provider_side_effect_pending")`.
-
`saved_codex_thread_attaches_after_a_release_changes_its_feature_toggles`
(protected sandbox change). Red: `left: None, right:
Some("provider_attach_refused")`.
- `native-session-executor.test.ts`:
- Test "stops same-run retries for an operator while a saved
side-effecting call has no result". Red: `expected
'native_session_interrupted' to be
'native_provider_side_effect_pending'`.
- Test "retains the local controller checkpoint until remote continuity
archiving succeeds: failed/timeout". Red: the message had no detail.
Green: the message has the exit status and output, a token in the output
is redacted, and the local runner and control-plane files are intact.

Safety and regression checks:
- New test "still replaces a session after an unclassified resume
failure when the checkpoint allows it". It passes before and after: a
transport drop still reaches replacement.
- Existing test "types a runner-proven incompatible session when
same-session recovery is required" still passes.
- `native-session-resume.test.ts`: a source stopped with
`native_provider_side_effect_pending` is not rebound.
- `run-completion.test.ts` "replays saved user intent through normal
Retry …" passes with the detailed archive message.
- Runner Vitest: `native-session-runtime.test.ts` and
`harness-driver-backend.test.ts` (266 passed);
`runnerd-codex-transport-warm-attachment.test.ts` and
`codex-app-server-driver.recovery.test.ts` (74 passed).
- Rust: `--lib` (560 passed, plus one ACPX timing test that failed under
load and passed when rerun alone), `codex_provider` (118 passed),
`native_provider_backend` (45 passed), `durable_recovery` (3 passed).

Not run: a live staging recovery at this revision. The local server
typecheck could not resolve the unbuilt runner package, so required CI
provides typecheck.

## Risks

- A run that a replacement session would have continued after an attach
refusal now stops for an operator. The refusal repeats on every retry,
so the replacement was the only way past it. It also destroyed saved
state, which is what blocked the staging tasks. A board Retry still
continues the task in a fresh session in the same workspace. This is the
existing `native_provider_state_incompatible` behavior.
- A new failure code `native_provider_side_effect_pending` appears in
run records and recovery actions. It joins
`EXECUTION_RECONCILIATION_CAUSES`, so the UI shows the reconciliation
flow, not Retry.
- An attach refusal used to reach an automatic replacement; it now needs
one board Retry. This is intended: the replacement archived saved state
and failed part way on staging.
- The pending-side-effect class means "no result delivered to the
runner". The controller replays a recorded tool outcome only after
attach. A call whose outcome the server already recorded therefore also
stops for an operator. That is conservative; the reconciliation shows
the recorded outcome.
- Only a pending tool call classifies an attach blocker. Other blockers
(active turn, ambiguous turn start, active goal) keep their current
behavior.
- The archive error message is longer. The one exact-match consumer now
accepts the `code: detail` form.

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, used through Claude
Code with tool use (shell, file edit, browser reads of staging).

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 c97c0dd248 fix(workspaces): give run preparation its own source lock scope (#19734)
<!-- Write all pull request text in Simplified Technical English
(ASD-STE100): short sentences, one instruction per sentence, simple
approved vocabulary, and the active voice. -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A run prepares its task workspace under per-source advisory locks
(`workspace-source-lock.ts`). The locks live in a transaction on a
dedicated connection. An `AsyncLocalStorage` scope lets nested calls
reuse that transaction.
> - Timers and detached promises keep the async context that created
them. A native recovery timer or dispatch can start a run from inside
another operation's source scope.
> - When that run prepares its workspace, it sees the other scope as
"held". If that scope already committed, its dedicated connection is
closed. The lock query then fails with `Failed query: select
pg_try_advisory_xact_lock(...)` and cause `CONNECTION_CLOSED`. If that
scope is still open, the run's lock is tied to the other transaction and
is released early.
> - In a restart chaos wave, a reattached follow-up run failed setup
this way 50 ms after "Recovering the existing native runner process".
The setup-failure log did not show the driver cause.
> - This pull request makes only a live scope count as held, and makes
run workspace preparation take its locks in an independent scope.
> - The benefit is that a recovered or dispatched run gets its own
source lock, and a lost-connection failure is diagnosable from the log.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
After a control-plane restart, a native run was reattached
(`reattach_remote_runner`). Its workspace preparation failed at once
with `Failed query: select
pg_try_advisory_xact_lock(hashtextextended($1, 0)) as acquired params:
isolated_repository_source:<company>:<issue>`. The run ended
`failed`/`setup_failed`. The stack showed the "already held scope"
branch of `withWorkspaceSourceLocks`, not a new acquisition. The same
failure occurred earlier in the same wave on a different issue without a
restart.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Call `withIsolatedRepositorySourceLock` for issue A. In its action,
start a detached promise that later calls
`withIsolatedRepositorySourceLock` for issue B.
2. Let the outer action return so its transaction commits.
3. Let the detached call run. It fails with `Failed query ...
pg_try_advisory_xact_lock`, cause `CONNECTION_CLOSED`.

**Expected behavior**
Work that starts after a source scope ends, or independent work such as
a run's preparation, acquires its own locks on its own connection.

**Environment**
Restart chaos campaign on Daytona (OpenCode, workload C1, fault K1,
comment trigger), embedded Postgres. Reproduced locally on embedded
Postgres by the new tests.

Related: #14910 (deferred comment wake reopens a closed issue). This PR
does not change wake promotion.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/workspace-source-lock.ts`: a scope has an
`active` flag. The flag is cleared when its transaction ends.
`withWorkspaceSourceLocks`, `retainManagedProjectSource`,
`retainCurrentWorkspaceSource`, and `assertCurrentWorkspaceSourceHeld`
use only a live scope.
- `server/src/services/workspace-source-lock.ts`: new
`withIndependentWorkspaceSourceLocks`. It acquires locks in a new scope
and ignores an inherited one.
- `server/src/services/heartbeat/workspace-preparation.ts`: run
workspace preparation uses `withIndependentWorkspaceSourceLocks`.
- `server/src/services/heartbeat/run-completion.ts`: the "heartbeat
execution setup failed" log records a bounded driver `causeCode` (for
example `CONNECTION_CLOSED` or a SQLSTATE). It does not log the cause
text.
- Tests: two embedded-Postgres tests in
`isolated-remote-workspace-source-lock.test.ts`, one unit test in
`run-completion.test.ts`.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/isolated-remote-workspace-source-lock.test.ts` — 4 passed.
- Red (old scope rule): "gives work detached from a finished scope its
own source lock" failed with `Failed query: select
pg_try_advisory_xact_lock(...)`, cause `CONNECTION_CLOSED`. This is the
production error.
- Red: "keeps an independent preparation's lock after the scope that
started it commits" failed because the lock was released with the other
transaction.
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/heartbeat/run-completion.test.ts` — 95 passed.
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/remote-workspace-online-source.test.ts
src/services/heartbeat/workspace-preparation.test.ts
src/services/isolated-repository-rehome.test.ts
src/services/isolated-task-directory-retention.test.ts
src/services/isolated-task-directory.test.ts
src/__tests__/execution-workspace-reopen.test.ts` — all passed.
- `cd server && npx tsc --noEmit` — clean.
- No live Daytona replay was run.

## Risks

- Low. A nested call inside a live scope behaves as before.
- A call that inherited an ended scope now opens its own dedicated
connection and lock transaction. Before, it failed.
- Run preparation never joins another operation's lock scope. No caller
relies on that today. If one did, it would now take a second,
independent lock and could see `workspace_source_busy` instead of
silently sharing.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, via Claude Code with
tool use (shell, file edit, embedded Postgres tests).

839d41aabb fix(server): retire owned plugin listeners before idle sleep (#19358)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Plugins receive durable agent lifecycle events through a registered
host.
> - The host uses a PostgreSQL LISTEN connection to wake delivery.
> - An idle report could return `none` while that host-owned connection
stayed open.
> - This change gives that listener an exclusive owner and closes it
during the current idle hold.
> - Release or expiry restores listening before journal replay.
> - Failed close and pending work continue to block sleep.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18988, which is now merged. This focused ten-file change now
targets master. Current integrated candidate:
`0f83005122ef1bdb1f1e08f8f58424c9a840ebb1`, with actual master
`644ee66f5d4ae8365fe8b9eca57df2be7405b5ab` preserved through normal
merges. No history was rewritten.

**What happened?**

A normal local App with an installed lifecycle plugin could return an
idle `none` report while its lifecycle LISTEN backend and socket stayed
open.

**Expected behavior**

The host must close its own listener before it reports idle safety. It
must retain other subscriptions, durable events, company scope, retry
deadlines and useful reactivation.

**Steps to reproduce**

Start the normal server with a lifecycle plugin. Create an agent and
wait for its durable acknowledgment. Stop the server, create another
agent while it is stopped, and restart with the same files. Request an
owned idle hold after ordinary replay. Check the exact listener backend
and matched Node socket before shutdown. Let the valid hold expire
naturally, then make an ordinary authorized agent update and check its
durable plugin acknowledgment.

Live executing or persistent preview services remain active. The
separate hosted preview dependency
[paperclip-cloud#478](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/pull/478)
retains its own App and operator prerequisites. This PR does not claim
deployed preview or suspension acceptance.

## What Changed

- Add a private, exclusive database listener owner that inherits the
normal client policy.
- Prepare plugin lifecycle retirement after native retirement under the
same current idle hold.
- Use one delivery-eligibility helper for dispatch and idle journal
inspection. It preserves the same manifest, capability, company-disable
query, and skip rules.
- Close only the owned listener. Keep failed close ownership and
inspection failures visible.
- Resume listening on normal release or expiry, before journal replay.
- Preserve disabled-feature retry history and the original deadline on
re-enable.
- Await lifecycle disposal during normal shutdown and consumer teardown.
- Add owner regressions and document the lifecycle contract.

## Verification

**Current integrated source:**
`0f83005122ef1bdb1f1e08f8f58424c9a840ebb1`. Fresh normal Runner
TypeScript passed in 0.785 seconds. The complete normal App layered
semantic check passed in 28.284 seconds. All tracked source, the
lockfile and the 18 separate private witness inputs stayed unchanged.
Known compiler owners closed and the isolated temporary home was
removed.

**Current product qualification:** at measured integration
`896cc9b62993e6ed10418d7a7417e1ddbf8dc89c`, all three whole files passed
with no failures or skips: lifecycle delivery 40, runtime hooks 20, and
runtime assignments 24. The actual physical LISTEN and natural-expiry
controls passed. All owned clients and captured processes closed.
Independent final session checks were zero before normal deletion of
each successful test database.

**Normal full-App physical retirement:** the original case passed in
47.574 seconds. It exercised real startup, readiness, SDK callbacks,
durable ACK, foreign-company exclusion, physical stop, offline input and
cold replay. The initial unknown hold and its ordinary release remain in
the evidence. After the original 30.5-second cadence, a new valid hold
returned quiescent. The exact current cold-App LISTEN backend and its
matched Node socket closed before server stop.

**Normal full-App natural expiry:** the separate original case passed in
77.391 seconds under its original 90-second body cap. The final valid
30-second hold expired naturally. A new listener backend and matched
current App socket appeared before fresh input. An ordinary authorized
agent-name PATCH produced journal event 20, the actual SDK callback and
durable ACK. Foreign exclusion and readiness assertions passed. The
final measured hold had no manual release, replacement hold or shortened
TTL. The original preparatory unknown hold, ordinary release and
30.5-second cadence remain explicit.

Both App cases used the normal current server helpers and actual SDK
bundling/worker entry. A private compatibility change supplied the same
owned HOME at the exact existing child-fork boundary. It did not change
the product helpers, business assertions or timing limits. These
separate acceptance fixtures remain outside the focused product diff.

**Source carry to the current candidate:** all nine other owned files,
listener mechanics, actual producer paths, SDK paths and measured hold
behavior are unchanged. The sole owned intersection from newer master is
an independent environment-delete cleanup callback in `app.ts`. The
plugin witnesses do not call that route. Normal merges preserve every
unrelated master blob and file mode. The fresh current semantic checks
above qualify the integrated source. New master Native crash-recovery
and saved-copyback Retry capabilities are not claimed by these plugin
cases.

**Actual master merge target:** newer master contains retained plugin
Runner release/resume and other Native recovery fixes. The projected
combined target passed fresh normal Runner TypeScript in 0.799 seconds
and the full App semantic check in 29.715 seconds. All ten plugin-owned
blobs and modes remain exact to the published head; every unrelated
master change is preserved. The measured plugin cases create no Native
provider turn or warm Native session. The unchanged
native-first/plugin-second ordering still checks the native result
before listener retirement. Later sparse-checkpoint and Native
response-publication changes do not enter those paths. This is a scoped
source carry, not new hosted Runner acceptance.

**Failures retained:** an earlier reactivation fixture's real timer
returned one millisecond before its original wall-clock expiry. Its
private fixture now waits any positive remainder and retains the same
expiry assertion and limits. The earlier partial-composition `unknown`
result remains distinct from normal-startup proof. Current qualification
also exposed missing normal workspace dependencies and a private guard
that assumed loose Git refs. Normal owned dependency setup and an exact
loose-or-packed reader fixed those setup failures. No business
assertion, timeout, permission boundary or product sleep gate was
relaxed.

Repeat focused product coverage with a fresh external fixture database
and the normal server Vitest command, one worker:

```sh
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run src/__tests__/plugin-lifecycle-delivery.test.ts --maxWorkers=1 --no-file-parallelism
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run src/__tests__/agent-runtime-hooks.test.ts --maxWorkers=1 --no-file-parallelism
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run src/__tests__/agent-runtime-assignments.test.ts --maxWorkers=1 --no-file-parallelism
```

Exact current head `0f83005122ef1bdb1f1e08f8f58424c9a840ebb1` has 60
successful checks, three skips and one neutral result, with no pending
or failing contexts. Greptile completed its full review at 5/5 with no
actionable issue. All root and nested review pages were read; the
earlier eligibility finding is resolved. Ponytail's latest turn stopped
before a verdict. A normal retry was requested; no current Ponytail
verdict or score is claimed. Previous `3ca86ec` CI and scores are
historical. A full local repository typecheck/test/build or browser run
is not claimed. Controlled local App/SDK/PostgreSQL proof does not
establish live provider, deployed Railway/Neon suspension, signed Cloud
alarms or global exactly-once delivery.

## Risks

- A listener close failure or uncertain inspection must continue to
block sleep.
- Release, expiry, configuration changes, and journal arrival can race
with retirement. Epoch and current-hold checks retain conservative
results.
- Delivery remains at least once across uncertain ACK boundaries. This
change does not add global exactly-once delivery.
- The database helper closes only its exclusive listener client. Other
owners and subscriptions keep their resources.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol`, reasoning and code/tool use. The managing Codex
agent implemented shared database/composition seams and reviewed the
change; its exact model ID was not exposed. The runtime does not expose
a verified context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip 1c91bacf97 fix(native): admit independent replies during contended publication (#19726)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages work done by AI agents.
> - A completed native run must deliver its saved final response.
> - The response worker also recovers retained replies that can wait on
publication locks.
> - A pass waited for its old publication groups even when other check
slots were free.
> - This could delay an independent final reply beyond a full page of
retained candidates.
> - This PR enables the existing shared coordinator option that admits
independent due work during an active pass.
> - Existing authority checks, resource keys and the four-check limit
still control publication.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
A native run completed after replacement recovery. Its final response
and accounting were saved, but its final issue reply was missing. The
response queue contained more than 100 retained chat replies and
repeated endpoint-lock failures. The existing worker did not admit
independent due entries until its current groups finished.

**Expected behavior**
A contended publication owner must not hold free worker slots. An
independent accepted final reply must publish once, including when its
candidate is on a later SQL page.

**Steps to reproduce**
Create 100 accepted, committed replies that share one publication owner.
Create an independent reply after them in candidate order. Hold the old
coordinator rows with a database transaction and start the real response
worker. Before this change, the independent reply stays unpublished
until the old group is released.

Related: #18977 changes response selection in standing conversations.
This PR changes only worker admission and preserves response selection.

## What Changed

- Enable `admitDueWhileActive` in the native response worker's existing
shared coordinator configuration.
- Add a real PostgreSQL regression with the full 100-row SQL page, the
default dispatch batch, real row-lock contention and a later-page
independent reply.
- Verify one comment per reply after settlement and no further SQL or
scheduled deadline across 60 seconds of idle time.
- Update one existing principal/rescope integration assertion to observe
the reconciled invalidation revision. Keep its actual per-run replies,
authorization, publication and idle checks.

## Verification

- Regression on the unchanged worker: the independent reply remained
unpublished while the first 100 replies were locked. The real PostgreSQL
test failed as expected.
- Final head `748fb9609104c016c33ff7caf282ba9e15e88495`: all six
publication regressions and both principal/rescope controls passed (8/8,
47.96 seconds). Checks cover later-page admission, exact per-run comment
counts, retry and rollback behavior, authorization, and 60 seconds with
no idle SQL or scheduled deadline.
- The tests used the canonical PostgreSQL wrapper and one owned
disposable PostgreSQL 18.1 fixture. All clients and test databases were
closed before fixture cleanup.
- The current-head [full CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42338953241)
supplies typecheck, build and broad test coverage. All current-head
checks passed; the merge gate is green.
- Local full typecheck was blocked by unbuilt dependencies; it is not
counted as a pass. The prior timer-state CI failure and the final
successful rescope-generation regression remain recorded.
- Greptile reviewed the final head at 5/5 with no unresolved threads.
`git diff --check` passed.
- Deployed acceptance remains separate. No serving instance was changed
by the PR tests.

## Risks

The worker can now use free slots during a slow pass. The shared
coordinator still limits checks to four and preserves task, endpoint and
principal exclusions. Authorization, result identity, retry limits,
response selection and transaction ownership are unchanged. The
regression checks idle quiet after all concrete obligations settle.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6.1 (`gpt-6.1-sol`), with reasoning, code execution and tool
use. The runtime does not expose the context window size.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 c45c7cb854 fix(workspaces): ignore killed-transfer scratch in sparse checkpoints (#19730)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A native run in a remote sandbox copies its workspace back to the
host after the turn. A sparse checkpoint copies only changed entries,
and the host validates each entry against the sandbox's own manifest
> - Every Daytona transfer stages a `.paperclip-upload-<uuid>` scratch
file at the sandbox workspace root and removes it only in the same
process
> - A control-plane kill during any transfer leaves that scratch behind.
The sparse checkpoint then recorded it as a workspace file, but
providers never export it. Every later copyback and every saved-work
recovery attempt failed with "Workspace checkpoint payload mismatch"
> - The failed recovery then left an accepted Retry showing "Paperclip
is finishing the saved result" with no run
> - This pull request stops recording transfer scratch, makes the
checkpoint export an exact copy, names the failing entry, and gives a
Retry behind a spent recovery an honest reason and a working action
> - The benefit is that a restart during a transfer no longer makes a
task's saved work permanently unrecoverable

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19721 (RC-50: the killed copyback owner; this PR covers the
separate RC-50b cause)

**What happened?**

Restart-chaos waves s12/t01 and s14/t05 (Claude on Daytona). After a
SIGKILL of the control plane, the native result was accepted, and then
workspace copyback failed with "Workspace checkpoint payload mismatch".
In s14 all 6 saved-work recovery attempts failed the same way. A Retry
accepted during recovery kept `retryWait.reason =
finalizing_saved_result` after the recovery budget was spent. No run was
created.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a native Claude run in a Daytona sandbox.
2. SIGKILL the control plane while any provider transfer is in flight.
3. Let the run finish its turn and copy its workspace back.

**Expected behavior**

Copyback succeeds. Provider scratch is not workspace content. A Retry
behind a spent recovery names the failure and can start a new recovery.

**Actual behavior**

The s14 sandbox (6f4a0b6a) still held
`/home/daytona/paperclip-workspace/.paperclip-upload-d99fe36b-5acc-437b-96ad-85d5ff9e79c4.tar`.
Its mtime was 03:29:23, the second of the K4 SIGKILL. The Daytona
provider stages transfer scratch at `remoteDir`, which is the lease
`remoteCwd` (the workspace root). The runtime workspace wipe
deliberately preserves `.paperclip-upload-*`. The checkpoint helper
(`workspace-checkpoint.ts`, `checkpointMain`) recorded the stale tar.
The ordinary export excludes `.paperclip-upload*`, so the host received
nothing for that entry. `validateCheckpointPayload` then threw "payload
mismatch" on every attempt. The file-mode hypothesis was disproved: the
sandbox umask is 022 and the scratch is mode 644.

## What Changed

- `packages/adapter-utils/src/exclude-patterns.ts`: new
`isSandboxTransferScratchPath`, which matches a root-level
`.paperclip-upload-*` entry. This agrees with the wipe's preserve rule
in `buildWorkspaceTarExtractCommand`.
- `packages/adapter-utils/src/workspace-checkpoint.ts`: the sandbox
checkpoint helper skips that scratch. A mismatch error now names the
entry and its recorded, baseline and received forms (kind, octal mode,
short hash; never contents).
- `packages/adapter-utils/src/sandbox-managed-runtime.ts`: the
checkpoint export requests `preserveSourceEntries: true`. The checkpoint
output is an exact copy that the host validates entry by entry. An
ordinary export applies the host umask and drops `._*` and
`.paperclip-upload*` names at any depth. That gives the same permanent
mismatch for a legitimate user file such as `._summary`,
`notes/.paperclip-upload-plan.md`, or a `0775` script.
- `server/src/services/explicit-native-continuation.ts` and
`task-interruption-presentation.ts`: when the run's saved-work recovery
is exhausted, a waiting Retry reports `saved_work_recovery_failed` with
Retry available, instead of `finalizing_saved_result`. The existing task
Retry path starts one new recovery generation.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: a short additive note.

## Verification

- `packages/adapter-utils/src/workspace-checkpoint-capture.test.ts` uses
the real checkpoint helper and an export that behaves like Daytona's
ordinary export:
- Before the fix: `Workspace checkpoint payload mismatch at
".paperclip-upload-d99fe36b-….tar": sandbox recorded file mode=644 …;
baseline absent; received absent`. That is the wave error.
  - After the fix: the scratch is not recorded, and validation passes.
- A second case shows that reserved-looking user names and `0775` modes
need the exact export.
- `packages/adapter-utils/src/workspace-checkpoint.test.ts` is an
end-to-end `prepareSandboxManagedRuntime` restore through a provider
model. In that model, ordinary exports drop reserved names and apply the
umask, and preserve exports copy exactly. Two red checks:
- Without `preserveSourceEntries`, it fails with the mismatch on
`._summary`.
- Without the scratch skip, the stale tar leaks into the host workspace.
- Green: the agent file, the `._summary` file and the `0775` mode
arrive, and no scratch arrives.
- `server/src/services/workspace-recovery-preparation-gates.test.ts`,
"names a spent saved-work recovery behind an accepted Retry, and the
next Retry finishes it" (s14 shape):
  - Red: `finalizing_saved_result` after 6 failed attempts.
- Green: `saved_work_recovery_failed` with `canRetry: true`. The next
Retry starts a new generation, recovery completes, and the Retry
continues in exactly one new run.
- Suites: adapter-utils checkpoint, capture, sandbox-managed-runtime,
seed-reuse and managed-seed (168 passed). Server preparation-gates (47),
explicit-native-continuation and task-interruption-presentation (455),
workspace-recovery admission and retry-copyback, and
native-workspace-finalizer. `tsc --noEmit` is clean for adapter-utils
and server.
- Live evidence: I started the stopped s14 sandbox read-only, listed its
workspace, and stopped it again. No Daytona replay was run. The runner
content ID of this checkout matches no built image.

## Risks

- A user file named `.paperclip-upload-*` directly at the workspace root
is no longer captured by a sparse checkpoint. Providers already drop
that name from every ordinary export, and the runtime already reserves
it at the root.
- The checkpoint export now uses the provider's exact-copy mode. A
workspace file with setuid, setgid or sticky bits is refused by that
mode, as it is for the existing exact-copy transfers. The ordinary
export would have stripped those bits and failed validation anyway.
- The stale scratch tar stays in the sandbox. It is ignored, not
deleted, because a concurrent transfer can own a file with the same
prefix.

DottaandPaperclip 9efee7ee16 fix(runtime): save dynamic skill bundles before native admission (#19729)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents, tasks, and their saved execution state.
> - A replacement server must restore each admitted skill from shared
storage.
> - Installed company skills already have immutable versions.
> - Connector skills add assigned resources and tool definitions for
each run.
> - Those dynamic bytes keep a null version ID and differ from the
static skill.
> - Native admission saved their input before it saved a durable package
receipt.
> - This change stages the exact packages first and publishes the input
and receipt together.
> - A new connector turn can then survive an empty server home.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19675 for the existing runtime asset preservation owner.

**What happened?**

A new native run with an assigned Slack connector creates a concrete
local skill bundle after the old runtime assets were migrated. Admission
saves its execution input without a preservation receipt. The new run
creates a local durability dependency again.

**Expected behavior**

With S3 configured, the exact dynamic bundle must be durable before the
execution input becomes visible. Its null version ID and admitted bytes
must remain unchanged. Local storage must keep its volume-backed
behavior.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Configure S3 and a native agent with an assigned Slack resource.
2. Prepare a new native task through the normal runtime selection owner.
3. Inspect its runtime skill receipt or restore its skills with an empty
server home. The previous owner saved no receipt.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on master `d1ee25d0f7`. The fix is tested on `4a3396d9b9`.

**Deployment mode**

S3-configured server. Local tests use PostgreSQL 18.1 and a private disk
transport with the S3 receipt contract.

## What Changed

- Extend the existing runtime asset owner with package staging and
transaction-bound receipt validation.
- Stage exact unversioned skill packages before native admission. Keep
storage I/O outside the run transaction.
- Publish the frozen input and receipt together under the existing run,
cancellation, and package collection locks.
- Reject changed input bindings and retired package metadata.
- Reuse valid same-run receipts without reading the previous host's
bundle path or requiring a new object read.
- Keep existing online preservation and local storage behavior.
- Add a bounded preparation span and document its work.

## Verification

- Genuine unchanged-production RED: the actual Slack overlay and real
admission transaction save no preservation receipt.
- Final rebased head: 68 tests pass in three suites in 25.36 seconds.
These include all runtime-selection, runtime-preservation, and connector
controls.
- The new positive checks that no execution input or coordinator is
visible during package readback. It restores exact skill and tool bytes,
modes, digests, and null version IDs in a cold home.
- Guards cover an uncertain storage failure, cancellation during upload,
a changed binding, retired package metadata, and local mode. An existing
receipt remains usable after removing the original bundle and during a
storage outage.
- The canonical PostgreSQL wrapper uses one owned disposable PostgreSQL
18.1 container. Each suite's database is cleaned up. Real package
archives, streams, and readback run locally; no external provider or
model is called.
- Strict server TypeScript, module boundaries, changed-line private-data
checks, and `git diff --check` pass.
- [Final-head
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42337473062)
passes all required build, typecheck, test, and Runner gates. Fresh
Greptile is 5/5 with no open review threads.

## Risks

New S3-backed admission now requires its dynamic packages to be saved
before execution can proceed. A storage failure can therefore stop
preparation. Existing resource cleanup keeps its authority. Failed or
cancelled staging retains original files and the package owner's pending
receipts. Same-run recovery retains its original capture provenance and
cache behavior. The tests replace the external S3 transport; they do not
qualify live S3 permissions or provider execution. No schema, API,
workflow, company skill version, or provider protocol changes are
included.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 db41bfcb38 fix(recovery): let an accepted Retry finish after a killed copyback owner (#19721)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A native run saves the agent's workspace files after the provider
turn (copyback). One controller owns copyback at a time and records a
durable owner receipt on the run (`nativeWorkspaceFinalizationOwner`)
> - When copyback of an accepted result fails, retained saved-work
recovery exports the files from the kept sandbox. A task Retry waits for
that recovery before it continues
> - A control-plane restart can kill the controller while it owns
copyback. The dead controller can never confirm its own stop, and
nothing in the retained recovery path could release its receipt
> - The recovery worker then spent one attempt on each recheck of that
receipt until it was exhausted, and the accepted Retry kept saying
"Paperclip is finishing the saved result" with no run. The task waited
forever
> - This pull request stops spending attempts on that recheck, names the
real wait, and lets the board release the exact receipt so the same
recovery and the same Retry continue
> - The benefit is that an accepted Retry never waits silently: it
finishes, or it shows one honest action that makes it finish

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19717 (same-host automatic proof for a killed copyback owner; this
PR covers the retained-recovery path and the case where no automatic
proof is possible)
Refs #19713, #19609, #19694 (related restart-recovery fixes; no overlap
in files except this doc)

**What happened?**

Two Daytona restart-chaos waves. In each, a native run's copyback failed
and the run failed with `native_workspace_sync_out_retry_exhausted`. The
agent's result was accepted. Retained recovery started. A SIGKILL of the
control plane landed while a recovery attempt owned copyback:

- Wave s13, task t06 (Claude, crash loop): Retry was accepted at
02:30:35. A SIGKILL landed 2 s later. All later attempts failed with
`copyback_stop_unconfirmed`. After 6 attempts the recovery was
exhausted. The Retry showed `retryWait.reason = finalizing_saved_result`
for more than 15 minutes. No run was created.
- Wave s12, task t01 (Claude): attempt 1 failed with "Workspace
checkpoint payload mismatch". The SIGKILL at 01:43:54 killed the owner
of attempt 2. Attempts 3 to 5 failed with `copyback_stop_unconfirmed`.
The Retry was accepted with HTTP 2xx and produced no run.

In both kept databases the run carries an owner receipt for the killed
process.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Accept a native result and make its workspace copyback fail, so that
retained recovery owns the export.
2. Press Retry on the task.
3. Kill the control plane while a recovery attempt owns copyback, so
that its owner receipt stays on the run. Use another host, or a receipt
without automatic stop proof.
4. Let recovery run.

**Expected behavior**

Rechecking the receipt does not spend attempts. The task names the wait
and does not offer a Retry that cannot help. A board member can confirm
that the previous server stopped. The recovery then finishes, and the
waiting Retry continues by itself.

**Actual behavior**

`withNativeWorkspaceFinalizationOwnership` returned `owner_unverified`
for a retained repair without creating any board action
(`native-workspace-finalization-ownership.ts`,
`requireStopVerification`). `recoverRetainedWorkspace` reserved an
attempt for each recheck and failed it as `copyback_stop_unconfirmed`
(`workspace-recovery.ts`), until the budget was exhausted. The Retry
gate in `explicit-native-continuation.ts` returned
`finalizing_saved_result` for an accepted result with no verified
repair, with no check for this hold.
`resumeNativeWorkspaceAfterOwnerStop` accepted only an
`owner_unverified` action on a `running` run, so no route could release
the receipt of a finished run. The exhausted handoff told the board to
press Retry again, which repeats the same failure.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/workspace-recovery.ts`: when retained recovery
finds an unverifiable copyback owner, it records the recheck without
reserving an attempt. The 30-minute recovery window still bounds it. The
retained action records the exact receipt as `workspaceOwnerRecovery: {
state: "operator_required", owner }`. A newer receipt replaces the
record and clears an older confirmation.
- `server/src/services/explicit-native-continuation.ts`: a Retry that
waits for an accepted saved result reports
`workspace_owner_stop_required` when the run's active retained action
has that hold. It no longer reports `finalizing_saved_result` for this
case.
- `server/src/services/task-interruption-presentation.ts`: the new wait
has a fixed message, and Retry is not offered for it, because another
click cannot release the receipt.
-
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-workspace-owner-recovery.ts`:
the existing board route `POST
/issues/:id/recovery-actions/resume-workspace-finalization` (permission
`runtime:confirm_owner_stop`) also accepts a retained recovery action
with that hold. The confirmation must name the receipt that is still on
the run. A live owner on this host still rejects it. It clears only that
receipt, records the stop proof and an activity entry, and returns the
same recovery to the worker. A spent budget gets one new generation, as
a deliberate recovery request does. It accepts no result and starts no
agent turn. The owner check is shared with the existing path.
- `server/src/services/system-recovery.ts`: an exhausted
`copyback_stop_unconfirmed` handoff names the board confirmation instead
of another Retry.
- `ui/src/api/issues.ts`: the route receipt's `resultId` can be `null`
(a retained recovery has no live result binding).
- `doc/native-workspace-finalization-recovery.md`: an additive paragraph
describes this path.

## Verification

- Red then green on embedded Postgres:
`server/src/services/workspace-recovery-preparation-gates.test.ts`,
"lets an accepted Retry finish after a killed copyback owner instead of
waiting forever" with one case per wave (s13, s12). Each case uses a
real accepted remote export, a Retry through the HTTP route, a
killed-owner receipt, and 8 recovery passes.
- Before the fix (both cases): `attempts: 6, state: "exhausted"`. That
is the wave state.
- After the fix: no attempt is spent on the recheck. The hold is
recorded. The Retry wait is `workspace_owner_stop_required` with
`canRetry: false`. The board confirmation through the route returns 202
and clears the receipt. The same recovery completes. The same accepted
Retry then finishes the saved result (s13: the task is `done`) or
continues in exactly one new run (s12).
- `npx vitest run
src/services/workspace-recovery-preparation-gates.test.ts -t "killed
copyback owner"`: 2 passed.
- `pnpm verify` (affected selection): see the comment below. Server `tsc
--noEmit` is clean.
- No live Daytona replay. Both waves ran on old signed images. The local
proof uses the same accepted-export fixture as the existing Retry tests,
with the receipt state copied from the kept databases.

## Risks

- A copyback owner on another host that is still alive is now rechecked
within the recovery window without spending attempts. Before this change
it spent them. The window still bounds the wait.
- The board confirmation for a retained action is an operator statement,
the same as the existing owner-stop path. It is limited to roles with
`runtime:confirm_owner_stop`. It never clears a receipt other than the
one it names, and a live same-host owner still rejects it.
- #19717 changes the same ownership area and adds a UI action for the
running-run case. That UI does not show a retained action yet. After
both merge, a small follow-up can show its button for this hold. Until
then the API route and the task's wait message cover it.
- Not addressed here: the "Workspace checkpoint payload mismatch" that
started wave s12. The checkpoint outbound transfer extracts without `-p`
(`sandbox-managed-runtime.ts` checkpoint sync-out, `extractHostTarball`
in the Daytona provider), so the host umask can change file modes that
the remote manifest recorded. That is a separate signature.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 5cc89b1e4d fix(native): do not charge a restart resume that made progress before the next crash (#19720)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs have an execution recovery budget of three provider
attempts, so a run that keeps failing stops retrying
> - A control-plane crash (no graceful drain) makes the next server
resume the run, and that resume charges one attempt
> - #19625 stopped charging a resume after a graceful drain, but crash
restarts still charge, even when the previous resume did real work
> - On a deploy day with several restarts, a healthy run used up its
budget and the task needed a manual Retry
> - This pull request does not charge a crash resume when the previous
restart resume made recorded progress
> - The benefit is that restarts alone do not exhaust a run that keeps
making progress, and genuine loops stay bounded

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19625

**What happened?**
In restart-chaos testing (storm wave, OpenCode run), a run crossed four
control-plane restarts: K1, K1, K2 (drain), K1. Each resume was clean:
the runner restored the session, recorded
`provider_turn_lost_on_restore`, and the #19699 continuation turn then
ran tools for minutes. The two K1 resumes each charged one attempt
(attempt 1 to 3). The drain resume did not charge (#19625). The fourth
restart found attempt 3 and blocked the run with
`native_restart_recovery_blocked` /
`execution_recovery_budget_exhausted`. Seven runs in the same wave
failed in the same way. In every case, each resume had accepted a new
turn and completed tool work before the next restart.

**Expected behavior**
A run must not fail because it survived several controller restarts that
each resumed cleanly and made progress. The budget must still stop a
resume that fails each time, a crash loop that makes no progress, and a
provider that fails repeatedly.

**Steps to reproduce**
Start a native local run. Kill the server (SIGKILL) while the run is
active and let it resume. Let the resumed turn run tools. Repeat three
times. The third crash resume is blocked with
`execution_recovery_budget_exhausted`.

**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at `8a34c1b62c`.

## What Changed

- `claimNativeRestartRecoveries()` (`native-restart-recovery.ts`)
records `progressWatermarkSeq` (the run's highest
`heartbeat_run_events.seq`) in the history entry of each recovery claim.
- New `previousResumeMadeProgress()`: the next claim reads the watermark
of the most recent claim. It finds progress when, after that watermark,
a `turn.accepted` event names a turn, and a later
`tool.execution.completed` or `item.completed` event (not a `usage`
item) belongs to the same turn. The evidence is committed run events,
not timing.
- When that progress exists, the claim is not charged
(`chargesProviderAttempt: false`, and the `>= 3` exhausted gate is
skipped). This uses the same path as the clean-drain rule from #19625.
The history entry records `attemptKeptForProgress: true`.
- Restore activity does not count: lineage items without a turn,
`turn.failed`, work on the interrupted turn, `turn.submitted`, and an
accepted turn with only usage or a failure. So a resume that dies or
fails before it does work still charges.
- The credit stops at controller generation 12
(`NATIVE_PROGRESS_CREDIT_GENERATION_LIMIT`). A run that does some work
and then crashes the controller every time still reaches the budget.
- The first restart (which interrupts the original execution, not a
resume) still charges. A history entry from an older release has no
watermark, so it gets no credit.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md` states the rule next to the three-attempt
budget.

## Verification

New tests in
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts`
(embedded Postgres, real `claimNativeRestartRecoveries`; between claims
the test applies the executor's attempt charge and marks the controller
dead):

- `keeps recovering a run whose restart resumes each completed work
before the next crash`: five crash resumes, each followed by restore
noise and one completed tool in the continuation turn. Charges are
`[true, false, false, false, false]` and the attempt stays 2. Red on
master (attempt 2, 3, then blocked).
- `still exhausts the budget when restart resumes complete no work
between crashes`: resumes followed only by restore noise and a failed
continuation turn. Attempt 2, attempt 3, then
`execution_recovery_budget_exhausted`. Green on master and with the fix.
- `bounds a crash loop that makes progress before every crash`: credit
stops at the generation limit, the last attempt is spent, and the run
blocks. Red on master.
- `native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts`,
`heartbeat-native-restart-suspension.test.ts`,
`native-restart-recovery-isolation.test.ts` and
`native-remote-retry-admission.test.ts`: 218 passed, 14 skipped.
- I ran the progress query against the live database of the failing
wave. For all seven blocked runs, every resume had progress before the
next restart, so this rule would have kept each of them recovering.
- `tsc --noEmit` for `server` has no errors in the changed files.

## Risks

- A run that makes progress and then makes the controller crash each
time gets up to about ten extra resumes before the budget applies. The
generation limit bounds this.
- The rule depends on the PRP event shape (`payload.prpEvent.turnId` on
`turn.accepted` and on completed work). Events without that shape get no
credit, so the failure mode is the old behavior (charge), not an
unbounded loop.
- The query runs once per claim, on the `(run_id, seq)` unique index
range after the watermark.

DottaandPaperclip 1a60d47804 Preserve settled native log files during online migration (#19719)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages work for AI agents.
> - The web server must retain run history across replacements.
> - Older native runs can have local log files with no final size or
digest.
> - The normal importer correctly refuses to call those files complete.
> - The existing raw archive mode requires the entire instance to stop
work.
> - This change gives settled sources a separate, guarded online archive
path.
> - Active work can continue while old evidence moves to object storage.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18864, #19678, #19688.

The offline historical log archive path cannot migrate a busy instance.
This change preserves exact surviving bytes without claiming complete
native-event coverage or changing the original run outcome.

## What Changed

- Add an explicit online option for settled native log files. Keep the
default importer and offline option unchanged.
- Require a released, closed native finalizer and no pending attempt,
allocation, physical owner, or task binding. A stale lease or terminal
run status alone is insufficient.
- Use the canonical physical finalization lock and row locks. Check the
source generation before claims and publication.
- Read only the canonical, private local file. Reject aliases, symlinks,
hard links, changed files, and changed owners.
- Verify remote bytes before publishing a read-only archive and activity
receipt in one transaction. Keep original files, errors, run status,
event rows, and completeness metadata.
- Document the command and its authority limits. Add real PostgreSQL and
loopback S3 transport tests.

## Verification

- The original implementation failed the new archive regression. It
returned blocked instead of migrating the settled source.
- Final source integration suite: 15 tests pass on disposable PostgreSQL
and the bounded loopback S3 fixture. Coverage includes active unrelated
work, failed and successful sources, a 4 MiB segment boundary, owner
changes, file changes, unresolved owners, task bindings, allocations,
and filesystem aliases.
- The qualified source TypeScript check and module boundary check pass.
- All 73 tests in five affected existing log-store, object-journal,
cancellation, and migration-worker suites pass. The first borrowed
dependency setup loaded work contexts from another worktree and failed
four tests. Explicit database subpath aliases resolved that setup fault;
no worker code changed.
- Earlier test fault injection used the wrong storage method, and the
first segment test reused a closed fixture endpoint. Those fixture
defects were corrected before the final 15-test pass.
- Local tests use Node 26. CI supplies the standard full typecheck,
build, and test gates. Production object-storage credentials, live
Railway replacement, and provider continuation are separate deployment
acceptance steps.

- Final exact-head CI: 59 successful contexts and 3 skipped, with all
typecheck, build, test, E2E, security, and review gates complete.
[Workflow
evidence](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42332349644).
- The first CI attempt had 12 jobs interrupted by runner shutdown. Their
logs end in cancellation, with no test assertion found. The
failed/cancelled-only retry passed all 12 jobs and recomputed
aggregates. The 38 original successful job records kept their original
execution times and were not rerun. Original interruption logs remain
retained.

## Risks

- This path preserves raw history. It cannot recover missing source
bytes or prove a complete native transcript.
- Uploads can finish before a later source check fails. The run
reference stays local in that case; a retry must still satisfy all
authority checks.
- The new option is explicit. It adds no startup worker, recurring poll,
or background scan.
- Source transactions hold scoped locks only for ownership checks and
publication. Streaming and remote verification run outside those
transactions.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 aed053633e fix(environments): run pending sandbox cleanup when an environment is deleted (#19716)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Operators delete a sandbox environment, optionally with consent to
destroy its sandboxes (`DELETE
/api/environments/:id?destroyReusableSandboxLeases=true`)
> - A sandbox whose teardown failed or was interrupted is kept as a
`pending_cleanup` lease, and it blocks the delete
> - The cleanup sweep retries such a lease only after a cooldown of up
to 5 minutes
> - A consented delete therefore returned 409 `pending_sandbox_cleanup`
for minutes. A caller with a shorter deadline gave up, and the
environment and its sandbox stayed behind
> - This pull request makes the consented delete run one teardown
attempt for the environment's pending cleanups now, then re-check
> - The benefit is that a consented environment delete completes as soon
as the provider teardown succeeds

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
After a restart chaos wave, the harness deleted the wave's Daytona
environment with `destroyReusableSandboxLeases=true`. The server
returned 409 `pending_sandbox_cleanup` every 3 seconds for the whole
120-second client deadline. A run lease had entered `pending_cleanup`
after its run failed, and the sweep's retry cooldown had not passed. The
environment was not deleted.

**Expected behavior**
With explicit consent, the delete tears down the environment's own
pending sandbox cleanups and completes when that teardown succeeds. A
teardown that fails, or one already in flight elsewhere, still blocks
the delete.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Leave a sandbox lease of an environment in `pending_cleanup` with a
future retry time.
2. `DELETE /api/environments/:id?destroyReusableSandboxLeases=true`.
3. On master, the response is 409 `pending_sandbox_cleanup` until the
cooldown ends.

Refs #19696 (restart recovery for creation and teardown claims; this
builds on it).

## What Changed

- `heartbeat/recovery.ts`: `sweepPendingCleanupLeases` accepts
`environmentRetry: { environmentId, actorId }`. Like the existing
run-scoped explicit retry, it bypasses the cooldown for one attempt,
never takes over an in-flight attempt, and logs
`environment_lease.cleanup_retried` with reason `environment_deleted`.
It touches only that environment's leases.
- `routes/environments.ts`: when the delete has consent and the only
blockers are pending cleanup and reusable leases, it runs that retry
first, then re-reads the blast radius. The existing reusable-lease
destroy and the final guard are unchanged. The new dependency is a
narrow, optional `retryPendingEnvironmentCleanup` option; without it,
behavior is unchanged.
- `app.ts`: wires the option to the existing heartbeat service instance.

## Verification

- Red, then green:
- `environment-routes.test.ts`: "runs the environment's pending sandbox
cleanup now and deletes with explicit consent" and "keeps rejecting when
the consented pending cleanup attempt does not finish" fail before and
pass after. "does not run pending sandbox cleanup without consent or
past another blocker" passes in both.
- `heartbeat-pending-cleanup-sweep.test.ts`: "runs one attempt for a
deleted environment's cleanup during its cooldown, scoped to that
environment" fails before and passes after. It checks that another
environment's lease and an in-flight claim are untouched, and that the
activity log is written.
- `sandbox-creation-operations.test.ts`: "reclaims an issue-bound
creation after its run failed and the issue finished on a later run"
covers another chaos finding. A creation intent bound to an issue was
interrupted by SIGKILL 0.5 s after it committed, its run ended
`process_lost`, and a later run finished the issue. The test fails on
the code before #19696 and passes on master, so #19696 already covers
this case. The test is kept as a regression.
- After rebasing on master, `environment-routes`,
`heartbeat-pending-cleanup-sweep`, `agent-runner-qualification-routes`
and `sandbox-creation-operations` pass (192 tests). `tsc --noEmit`
reports no errors in the changed files.

## Risks

- A consented delete now makes provider teardown calls for pending
cleanups. Those sandboxes were already queued for destruction, and the
operator consented to destroy the environment's sandboxes.
- One explicit attempt counts toward the lease's attempt cap, the same
as a user Retry.
- The delete request now waits for those teardown attempts. Each attempt
uses the existing plugin timeouts.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 51eb4ff705 fix(recovery): finalize an accepted native result after a hard kill (#19713)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A native run hands its accepted result to a controller lease, and
the controller finalizes the task from that result
> - A graceful shutdown releases that lease for the next server
(#19591), but a hard kill (SIGKILL, OOM, host crash) cannot
> - After a hard kill between result acceptance and finalization, the
next server waited for the dead controller's 20-minute lease, so the run
stayed `running` and the user's follow-up comment waited with it
> - This pull request releases that lease at startup when the controller
is proved dead by its boot ID and process identity, never by age
> - The benefit is that the saved result finalizes within seconds after
a restart, without another provider turn, and queued follow-up work
continues

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19591 (the graceful-shutdown counterpart) and #19578
(boot-identity proof for legacy runs).

**What happened?**
A restart-chaos wave sent K1 (SIGKILL) 20 ms after a Claude run recorded
`run.result.accepted` and `run.terminal`. The run then stayed `running`
for more than 10 minutes, through four more restarts. The finalization
row was `workspace_finalizing` with the stored result. Its lease
belonged to the killed server: a different `controller_boot_id`, a
`controller_pid` with no process, and `lease_expires_at` 20 minutes
ahead. Startup recovery skips runs that already have a result. The
result-commit worker waits until the lease expires. The task's follow-up
comment could not run until then.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Let a native local run accept its result.
2. SIGKILL the server before finalization finishes.
3. Restart the server. The run stays `running` until the old lease
expires.

**Expected behavior**
After a restart, a result lease held by a stopped controller of an
earlier boot is treated as released at once. The stored result finalizes
once, with no new provider turn, and the follow-up wake runs after it.

## What Changed

- New
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-dead-controller-result-lease.ts`:
`releaseDeadControllerResultLeases` finds `running` native runs with an
accepted result and an unexpired lease. It requires the lease to belong
to a different controller boot. It proves the controller stopped with
`evaluateNativeControllerTakeover` (`requireStoppedController`): the
process is dead, or its PID now names another process. It then expires
that lease with a compare-and-set on the exact owner token, boot ID, and
PID, and notifies the result-commit and finalization workers.
- `server/src/services/heartbeat/recovery.ts`:
`recoverNativeRunsAfterRestart` calls this first and records a
`native.recovery.transition` event (`awaiting_result_finalization`) for
each released run.
- Only executor leases are released, because only the executor claim
writes the controller identity together with the lease. Finalizer
(`native-finalizer:`) and cleanup (`native-cleanup:`) claims keep an
earlier executor's identity, so they are never released this way and
expire on their own short leases. A finalization-resume token
(`:resume:`) on a result row always belongs to the executor that adopted
it, because a pending resume claim is taken only on a row without a
result.
- Also not released: a live owner, an owner without a recorded process,
a lease of the current boot, a run this process is executing, and remote
workspaces (`nativeWorkspaceSync` or `remoteWorkspace`), which keep
their fenced lease.
- The compare-and-set does not compare the stored expiry. Postgres
stores microseconds that a JavaScript `Date` drops, and an exact-expiry
comparison silently skipped the real lease in the live reproduction.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: documents the rule.

## Verification

- Red then green on embedded Postgres
(`server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-native-restart-suspension.test.ts`):
- A hard kill with a dead controller's executor lease (first claim,
restart claim, or resumed claim) now finalizes on the next startup: run
`succeeded`, finalization `committed`, task `done`, one result, one run,
no provider dispatch. These tests failed before the fix with `status:
running`.
- A lease expiry stored with microsecond precision is released. This
test failed against the first version of the fix and reproduces the live
miss.
- A live controller of another boot keeps its lease, and so does a lease
of the current boot.
- A live claimant's finalizer or cleanup lease is kept when the recorded
earlier executor is dead.
- `npx vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-native-restart-suspension.test.ts`: 20 passed.
- Related suites pass: `native-session-resumption`,
`native-runner-restart-recovery.integration`,
`native-run-projection-work`, `live-recovery-work`. One
`live-recovery-work` legacy case timed out once under load and passed
when run again by itself.
- Live, local: `tests/restart-chaos/main.ts --workloads C1 --triggers
result --faults K1 --rc06-masked`. The failing case above came from such
a wave. I started its kept database and confirmed the stored lease state
and the compare-and-set miss. Against that same database, the fixed
release expires the stuck executor lease. Two later waves (12 tasks,
`--triggers result`) passed every task. Run events were not kept for
passing tasks, so I cannot confirm that a kill landed in the narrow
pre-finalization window in those waves.

- Live proof on head `8971874654`: local ACPX Claude, workload A1, seed
7411, `--triggers result` (a local variant that fires on A1 2.5–3.5 s
after the run's result proposal), `--keep`. The run passed 4 of 4 tasks.
In two tasks, K1 landed 1.5 s and 2.0 s after `run.result.accepted`. On
the next startup, each run recorded "Server restart released the
accepted native result of a stopped controller for finalization"
(`controller_process_dead`). Each finished `succeeded` about 1 s later,
with its task `done` and exactly one run per task (no extra provider
turn). Before this fix, the same shape stayed `running` until the
10-minute budget ran out (seeds 7411, 7422, and 7423 from the RC-33b
investigation in #19691).

## Risks

- Startup could take a lease from a finalizer that is still running.
Mitigations: the lease must belong to another boot, the controller
process must be proved stopped on this host (the same proof the existing
runner takeover uses), and the update matches the exact owner. Remote
workspaces are excluded. Multi-host deployments keep the existing
PID-liveness assumption that `claimNativeRestartRecoveries` already
makes.
- Low behavioral risk otherwise: finalization uses the existing
reconciler path, which #19591 already exercises after a graceful drain.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, run as an agent in
Claude Code with tool use (shell, file editing, local test execution,
live restart-chaos waves).

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 08f7ac03dc fix(recovery): keep a never-started task waiting through a temporary accounting hold (#19702)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Admission checks every wake. A short company accounting hold can
refuse new work after a control-plane restart.
> - When the hold refused a new task's assignment wake, stranded-work
recovery found the task with no run while the hold was still active. It
moved the task to `blocked` with a board recovery comment.
> - A `blocked` task leaves the stranded-assignment sweep, so nothing
woke it after the hold cleared. The task stayed `blocked` with no run,
no interruption and no Retry.
> - The hold was temporary. Tasks created a few seconds later (after the
sweep) started normally once accounting settled.
> - This pull request keeps a never-started task `todo` while a
temporary budget hold lasts. The existing assigned-todo liveness
dispatch then admits it once the hold clears. The task shows the hold it
waits for.
> - The benefit is that a restart no longer silently drops new tasks
created during the accounting settle window.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
In a restart-chaos storm on master `06bbcea12f`, three new tasks were
created while the company accounting hold was active. Each assignment
wake got 409 "Company cannot start work while completed runs await
accounting." (or "...native run recovers its unfinished accounting.").
One task rested `blocked` with 0 runs, interruption `null` and
`canRetry=false`. The other two ran later.

**Root cause**
`reconcileStrandedAssignedIssues`
(`server/src/services/recovery/service.ts`, the
`readInvocationBudgetBlock` branch near line 4826) escalates any
assigned task to `blocked` when a budget block exists. It does this
before the assigned-todo no-run branch, which already skips a
budget-blocked task and dispatches it later. So a task that never
started was treated as failed recovery work. The refused wake itself is
stored as a `skipped` `budget.blocked` diagnostic, which is correct; the
escalation removed the only path that re-admits it.

**Expected behavior**
A wake refused by a temporary admission hold waits and is admitted once
the hold clears, with one run. A real hard stop is still a board
decision. Removed assignees and cancelled tasks still do not wake.

**Steps to reproduce**
Create a company with a hard-stop budget and a completed run that has
`cost_accounting_pending = true`. Assign a new `todo` task. The wake
gets 409. Run the stranded-assignment sweep. Before this change the task
becomes `blocked` and never runs.

Related: #19700 bounds the accounting hold itself. This PR is
independent: it handles what happens to a task whose first wake the hold
refused.

## What Changed

- Stranded-work recovery skips a `todo` task with no run while a
temporary budget hold blocks admission. It does not escalate it to
`blocked`. The existing assigned-todo liveness dispatch admits the task
once the hold clears.
- A hard stop (spend at the limit, or blocked unpriced usage) keeps the
existing board escalation. Recovery checks this with the read-only
`policyBlocks` for the policies of the blocking scope. It does not
change budget hold semantics.
- The task interruption projection now covers a `todo` task with no run
whose latest wake was refused with `budget.blocked`. It shows "Waiting
for the budget to allow new work. The task starts automatically when it
does." with no Retry. A budget pause shows the existing "budget" user
action.
- The no-run projection applies the same person-owned gates as the
run-backed projection: a budget pause shows the "budget" action, and an
ordinary agent, project, company or task pause shows "resume". Only an
accounting hold shows the automatic-start text.
- `ExecutionBlockerNotice` shows that wait text for a `working`
presentation that carries a wait reason.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md` records the rule.

## Verification

- New embedded-Postgres regression
`server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-refused-assignment-wake.test.ts`:
- hold active, new task assigned, wake refused (409, `skipped`
`budget.blocked`), two recovery sweeps: the task stays `todo` with no
run and shows the wait reason. Before the fix this failed with `expected
'blocked' to be 'todo'` (the CHA-9 shape).
- hold cleared, two sweeps: exactly one provider turn starts, from
`issue.assigned_todo_liveness_dispatch`, and the task finishes. A later
sweep does not start another turn.
- counter-tests: a terminated assignee and a cancelled task get no run
after the hold clears.
- Existing `creates a board recovery action for budget-blocked assigned
work` (real hard stop) still passes unchanged.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-refused-assignment-wake.test.ts
src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts
src/services/task-interruption-presentation.test.ts
src/__tests__/heartbeat-issue-liveness-escalation.test.ts` (server) and
`src/components/ExecutionBlockerNotice.test.tsx` (ui).
- Server typecheck and `pnpm check:token-gates`.
- Live restart-chaos storm (local, codex/claude/opencode, 6 in flight,
K2 every 3-4 minutes for 20 minutes, no RC-06 mask), revision
e38bb5c8f7: 17 tasks, 10 pass.
- Two new tasks (CHA-16, CHA-17) were created while the company
accounting hold was active. Their assignment wakes got 409 "Company
cannot start work while completed runs await accounting." Both stayed
`todo` (not `blocked`) and showed `state: working`, `canRetry: false`,
`retryWait.reason: budget.blocked`, "Waiting for the budget to allow new
work. The task starts automatically when it does." No task rested
`blocked` with 0 runs.
- The hold itself never cleared in this wave (`pendingRunCount: 1` at
wave end), so these two tasks did not start before their deadline. That
stuck hold is the separate accounting-closure defect that #19700 bounds.
The other 5 failures (`R3:retry_no_new_run:B5`) are Retries refused by
the same stuck hold. The re-admission after the hold clears is proved by
the embedded-Postgres regression above.

## Risks

- Low. The change narrows one escalation to tasks that never started,
under a budget block that is not a hard stop. Those tasks now stay
`todo` and are re-checked by the existing 30-second stranded-assignment
sweep, which already re-checks every admission gate.
- The hard-stop check reads the blocking scope's active policies once
per budget-blocked never-started task in a sweep. It runs only while a
hold is active.
- The interruption projection adds one indexed read (company + payload
issue id) for `todo` tasks in the batch.

DottaandPaperclip d1306f338b fix(runtime): preserve settled failed harness backups online (#19715)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip coordinates agents, tasks, and their saved execution
state.
> - A replacement server needs native provider backups in shared
storage.
> - The online pre-copy owner accepts successful runs with a committed
result.
> - A sealed backup from a failed or cancelled run can still contain
user history.
> - The existing owner defers those files even after their source
ownership is settled.
> - This change adds a separate preservation owner with exact source and
publication checks.
> - The copy retains the failed outcome and original files while making
the backup readable from a fresh home.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19137 and #19108 for the existing pre-copy and encrypted backup
owners.

**What happened?**

Online pre-copy reports `source_not_successful` for a sealed legacy
backup from a settled failed or cancelled run. The provider files remain
tied to the old disk.

**Expected behavior**

Copy the exact recorded backup when the source has no remaining writer
ownership. Preserve the run status, warnings, result, allocation,
selected session, and local files.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create a lease-stamped suspended native backup.
2. Settle its source as a failed run with a terminal-failure coordinator
and no owner.
3. Keep an unrelated execution active.
4. Run canonical online pre-copy. The previous owner defers the source.

## What Changed

- Add a narrow preservation owner for terminal source files. It checks
the physical finalization lock, task, coordinator, run, selected
session, source lease, and source fingerprints.
- Recheck that owner before the encrypted upload receipt and
current-backup publication.
- Reuse the finite workspace keepalive during long source checks and
defer source-local invalid archives.
- Add optional exact-root stamp verification. A valid previous backup
cannot authorize a changed current payload. Existing callers keep their
fallback behavior.
- Bind the archive input to the checked owner and record an activity
event after publication.
- Keep pending object receipts after an uncertain or failed publication.
- Add focused PostgreSQL and filesystem controls. Update the existing
migration runbook.

## Verification

- Real PostgreSQL baseline on unchanged production: the new positive
case fails with `source_not_successful` instead of publishing the
backup.
- Same case passes after the change and decrypts/restores the exact
provider history.
- Final head 4b6cf093be: three focused suites pass, 81 tests in 62.26
seconds, including existing storage and stamp consumers. The canonical
PostgreSQL wrapper exited zero and completed cleanup.
- Controls cover cancelled and failed sources, real committed results,
expired nonnull owners, physical owner/lock contention, late
source/owner changes, previous-tree fallback, and archive root/scope
binding.
- Both review regressions fail with the committed pre-fix owners: a real
30-second database idle timeout expires during a 32-second exact-source
check, and a stamp-valid invalid archive stops the pass. The fixed owner
keeps its transaction live and copies the next valid source. Source
hashes and automatic file restoration were recorded for each leg.
- Final-head strict server TypeScript and module-boundary checks pass
after the master rebase and required Runner/shared declaration rebuild.
- No source migration, provider mutation, or archive apply was executed.

## Risks

This path does not reconstruct missing backups or prove that missing
provider state is recoverable. Such sources remain blockers. It does not
take expired owners or report failed work as successful. Source hashing
adds bounded disk work while source row locks are held; unrelated
executions remain active in the PostgreSQL fixture. Existing archive
size limits, authenticated encryption, object readback, and publication
fencing remain in place. No schema, API route, scheduler, or
rollout-policy change is included.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex (GPT-6 family; exact runtime model ID and context capacity
are not exposed in this session), with reasoning, repository editing,
code execution, and tool use.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 8a34c1b62c fix(budgets): bound the accounting hold so one missing receipt cannot wedge a company (#19700)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Pending run accounting holds new company work until it settles
(#19497, #19606, #19673)
> - A run settles only with closure evidence: a verified local stop, or
a terminated remote sandbox. Without that evidence it held the whole
company forever. In restart-chaos storm 4, a single run held 35 tasks
for hours
> - Two more shapes kept the hold alive. A run whose result had already
been accepted never counted as closed. A recovery that already owned its
held reservation was refused by other tasks' recovering accounting, so
concurrent recoveries waited on each other
> - This pull request bounds the hold, closes accepted-result runs on a
verified stop, and lets an owned recovery finish
> - The benefit is that no single missing receipt can wedge a company,
while genuinely unknown spend still surfaces under the blocking policy

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Follow-up to #19497, #19606 and #19673.

**What happened?**
- Storm 4: run `f879895f` timed out in `session.open`. Its local stop
was never verified (its process identity is still recorded), recovery
ended in `terminal_failure`, and its receipt never became ready. From
then on, every new-work wake got 409 "New work must wait while a native
run recovers its unfinished accounting". That was 93 refusals, 35
blocked tasks, and no Retry.
- Storm 4: run `6d3c76bf` was resuming as the recovery owner with its
own held reservation. `reserveRunBudget` refused it because other tasks'
runs were recovering.
- Wave s7401: run `0a3a849d` failed after its result was accepted, with
a verified local stop. It had 10 receipts across 2 sources, all
incomplete with 0 tokens. It stayed "completed runs await accounting"
because closure only covered coordinators in terminal failure with no
result.

**What did you expect?**
A run without closure evidence holds new work only for a bounded time,
then settles visibly. An accepted-result run with a verified stop closes
like a terminal failure. A recovery that already owns admitted work can
finish.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Restart the control plane during several native turns so that one
run's local stop is never verified.
2. Observe the run stay "recovering" and every new wake refused
indefinitely.

## What Changed

- `run-cost-accounting.ts`:
- A coordinator counts as settled when it ended in terminal failure
without a result, or when it has an accepted result. The verified-stop
and remote-termination closures use that rule, which covers the s7401
shape.
- A native run whose provider never started settles at once, like a
pre-provider failure, with no charge and its reservation released. Its
recovery has settled, no usage receipt was ever journaled (a provider
turn journals one as soon as it starts), and its local process never
launched or was verified stopped (wave s7403, run 3c1d7b70,
`session.open` timeout).
- New bound `ACCOUNTING_CLOSURE_TIMEOUT_MS`: the remote runner reconnect
grace (7 minutes) plus 3 minutes. A terminal native run with a settled
coordinator and no closure evidence settles at the bound:
- its known usage is recorded as unpriced (or estimated from the rate
card), with provenance evidence "closure evidence never arrived…";
    - it is marked `accountingClosureTimedOut`;
- a `cost.accounting_closure_timed_out` activity entry names the run.
- The reconciler selects these runs, and `readCostAccountingWork`
schedules a wake at the bound.
- `budget-exposure.ts`: a timed-out closure's final charge is exempt
from none of the unpriced-block exemptions. Under the `block` policy it
raises the normal budget notice ("recorded usage has no reliable price")
instead of a silent hold.
- `budgets.ts`, `budget-reservations.ts`,
`run-dispatch/adapters/postgres.ts`: when a validated recovery owner
continues admitted work, admission and both dispatch rechecks apply only
hard stops and pauses. Pending and recovering accounting holds still
gate new work.
- `doc/SPEC-implementation.md`: documents the bound, the accepted-result
closure and the provenance.

## Verification

- `closed-native-receipt-accounting.test.ts` (embedded Postgres). All of
these fail on master and pass here:
- s7401 shape (accepted result, verified stop, all receipts incomplete
with 0 tokens): settles and clears admission.
- A run without closure evidence: held before the bound with a scheduled
wake, then settled with the "closure evidence never arrived" provenance,
the `accountingClosureTimedOut` flag and an activity entry. Admission
clears under `allow`.
- Storm 4 `f879895f` shape (terminal failure, recorded process identity,
no stop event): held, then released after the bound.
  - The blocking policy still blocks on a timed-out closure.
- s7403 shape (no receipts, model unknown): a run whose process never
launched, or was verified stopped, settles at once with no charge and
its reservation released. With an unverified process it waits for the
bound.
- Storm 4 `6d3c76bf` shape: a recovery owner with its held reservation
reserves past another task's recovering accounting, while new work for
another task still waits.
- Existing suites pass locally: budget-enforcement-scoping,
budget-enforcement-worker, native-stop-accounting, cost-data-quality,
heartbeat-cost-accounting, run-cost-accounting, budgets-service. Server
typecheck passes.
- The other storm 4 terminal-failure runs (`2e477ae9`, `e4d2e14d`,
`6d3c76bf`, `7d21a44c`, `4bc49df0`, `1d85fbd9`) were already settled by
#19673 in that database (`cost_accounting_pending=false`) and were not
holding admission. `f879895f` alone held it.

## Risks

- After the bound, a run whose provider might still be running settles
as unpriced. Under the `block` policy that raises a hard-stop budget
notice, by design. Under `allow`, work continues and a late receipt
still reconciles.
- A recovery owner skips accounting holds, so concurrent recoveries can
spend while other tasks' accounting is unknown. Hard stops still apply,
consistent with best-effort budget enforcement.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, via Claude Code with
tool use (shell, file editing, embedded Postgres tests).

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 4612fa9fb4 fix(native): restart a drained Daytona run whose runner opened its session (#19711)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs on Daytona start a `paperclip-runnerd` process in a
sandbox. A graceful shutdown (every rolling deploy) suspends live native
runs "without cancelling provider work". The next boot then decides how
each run continues.
> - #19583, #19616 and #19684 let restart recovery start a remote
bootstrap again when durable evidence proves that no provider work
exists.
> - A chaos replay found another window. The drain suspended a remote
run just after its sandbox runner opened the provider session, before
the controller sent a turn and before a session snapshot existed.
> - Recovery accepted only an unfinished `session.open` in the
controller checkpoint, so it blocked the task as ambiguous. A Retry
recovered it, but automatic continuation was lost.
> - A related replay showed that the same-run bootstrap reuses the
sandbox. The interrupted runner can still hold the runner ingress port
there (`runner_ingress_bind_conflict`).
> - This pull request proves the "session opened, no turn" case and
stops the interrupted runner before relaunch.
> - The benefit is that a deploy during Daytona startup continues
automatically, without a port conflict.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A chaos replay (ACPX Claude on Daytona) sent SIGTERM while a remote run
was starting. The drain recorded `restart_suspended`. The dying
controller still launched the runner and finished `session.open`. On the
next boot, restart recovery returned
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence` with disposition `blocked`.

The decrypted controller checkpoint of that run showed:
- `run.prepare` completed and `session.open` completed (provider session
opened).
- Committed events `session.started`, `session.capabilities.updated` and
`session.goal.snapshot` (`ackedSourceSeq: 3`).
- No turn command. No run-profile session snapshot and no projected
provider events.

On the next run in that replay, a same-run bootstrap relaunched the
runner in the same sandbox (one lease for all attempts). It failed with
`runner_ingress_bind_conflict: failed to bind listener: Address already
in use`, because the interrupted runner from 51 s earlier was still
listening there. The bounded same-run retry recovered it on its last
attempt.

**Expected behavior**

When the durable controller record proves that no turn was ever sent,
recovery starts the bootstrap again. It first stops the interrupted
runner in the reused sandbox.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a native run on a Daytona environment.
2. Send SIGTERM to the control plane while the runner opens its provider
session.
3. Restart the control plane after the controller lease expires.
4. See that restart recovery blocks the task with
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`.

Root cause: in
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-restart-recovery.ts`, the
remote checkpoint proof (`remoteBootstrapProvenIncomplete`, #19583)
required an unfinished `session.open` with no committed events, and no
provider events at all. A completed `session.open` with only
session-open events had no rule, so it fell through to
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`.

Refs #19583, #19616, #19684, #19524

## What Changed

- `native-bootstrap-proof.ts`: new `runnerdStateHasNoProviderTurn`
proof. The state must hold only `run.prepare` and `session.open`
(pending or completed) and no warm, staged or adopted state. Every
committed event must be a session-open event, with contiguous sequence
numbers from 1, so no event is hidden. Only the controller issues turn
commands, and it writes each one to Postgres before sending it.
- `native-runner-checkpoint.ts`:
`nativeRunnerCheckpointRemoteBootstrapProof` replaces
`nativeRunnerCheckpointProvesIncompleteBootstrap`. It also reads a
bounded number of `event:N` parts and returns which proof holds. It
still rebuilds the state in memory.
- `native-restart-recovery.ts`: a remote run can now claim
`bootstrap_incomplete` with reason `remote_session_opened_without_turn`.
Projected provider events may only be session-open events
(`harness.ready`, `session.started`, `session.resumed`,
`session.updated`), and only together with the stronger session-opened
proof. A turn or provider event still blocks.
- `native-session-executor.ts`:
- For a remote sandbox target, the executor accepts the same proof on
the restored record.
- Before the same-run bootstrap relaunches,
`stopStaleRemoteRunnerBeforeBootstrap` stops the interrupted runner in
the reused sandbox. It uses the verified identity marker and process
check from reattachment, which signals only a process whose identity
matches this run: SIGTERM, a wait of up to 10 s, then SIGKILL.
- The stop is best effort. If no prior runner can be verified, nothing
is stopped, and the bounded same-run retry still handles any conflict.
- `doc/run-log-events.md`: document the reason and the stop.

## Verification

- Red, then green: `cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts
-t "drained remote"`. Before the fix, the opened-session case (with a
projected `session.started`) returned `blocked` /
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`.
- These keep the hold: a `turn.start` command, a committed
`turn.started`, an acknowledged event that is missing from the record,
and a projected `turn.started`. The executor test restores the
checkpoint and checks that the local proof is false and the remote proof
is true.
- Regression: `native-runner-restart-recovery.integration`,
`native-session-executor`, `native-restart-recovery`,
`native-bootstrap-retry.integration` and `heartbeat/recovery`: 1460
passed, 14 skipped.
- Stale runner stop: controlled sandbox-runner tests
(`native-session-executor.test.ts`, "stale runner stop before a same-run
remote bootstrap") run the real reattachment identity and process
scripts against a fake sandbox runner:
  - a verified runner that exits on SIGTERM gets SIGTERM only;
  - a runner that ignores SIGTERM gets SIGTERM, then SIGKILL;
  - a runner with another identity gets no signal;
  - no live prior runner means no signal.
- Live Daytona proof (wave `w-20261107T021837-s29`, ACPX Claude,
`--faults K2 --triggers time,result`, 4 tasks, concurrency 1). The image
was built from current master
(`paperclip-daytona-runner@sha256:71f711ab…`), and its content id
matches this branch.
- All 4 tasks crossed a graceful restart, and all passed R1. Two of the
K2s fired on the `result` trigger, during a running remote turn.
- The K2 during a turn reattached to the live remote runner
(`reattach_remote_runner`, generation 2), as designed.
- Task t01 failed R6 with an orphan Daytona sandbox that no lease
references. The graceful restart came during sandbox creation. This is a
separate signature, outside this change.
- The timed faults did not land in the exact "session opened, no turn"
window. The integration tests cover that window with the evidence from
the saved replay database.

## Risks

- The proof relies on two facts: only the controller issues turn
commands, and the controller writes each command before sending it
(`#sendJson` waits for the checkpoint flush). A turn always leaves a
`turn.start` command in the record.
- The provider session opened in the old sandbox runner is not resumed.
The new bootstrap opens a fresh session. No turn ran in the old one, so
no work is lost.
- The runner stop sends signals inside the run's own sandbox. It signals
only after the existing reattachment identity and process checks pass.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, via Claude Code with
tool use (shell, file edits, GitHub CLI) and extended reasoning.

18be7ac696 fix(server): retire idle native sessions before tenant sleep (#18988)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets people manage AI agents and their work.
> - Native agents can retain a warm session between useful turns.
> - That owner must close and save its files before the tenant can
sleep.
> - A failed close must keep the owner visible until retirement
succeeds.
> - This PR prepares idle resources under the exact current admission
hold, then takes a fresh safety snapshot.
> - Busy turns, uncertain closure and changed holds still prevent sleep.
> - CI also exposed a chat authorization race. The fix repeats full
authorization after the exact delivery commits.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18639 for local work and incoming wake boundaries. Related #18829
covers suspension receipts after admission.

**What happened?**

Idle preflight did not retire warm Native owners. Three failed-close
paths could forget an owner without proving that its provider stopped.
CI also found a false chat rejection when a delivery changed from
processing to processed between two validation reads.

**Expected behavior**

Retire only idle owners under the exact bounded hold. Wait for closure
and file collection. Retain failed owners. Scan safety after
preparation. Keep diagnostic reads passive. A newly committed chat
delivery must pass the full current authorization checks before
attestation succeeds.

**Steps to reproduce**

Finish a warm Native turn. Start an idle drain and request safety with
its owner ID. Delay or reject provider closure, or replace the hold
during preparation or scanning. The report must keep the instance awake.
For the chat race, commit the exact delivery between the first binding
read and its fallback read.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Current head `7f6f02b611dcf5a9a2b05173a44e9631eaf78058` normally
integrates actual master `1aa0c3639714f4976cfa56f95aae6e2b7d1235ac`. The
merge preserves every unrelated master path. Fresh exact-head CI and
complete review remain required.

## What Changed

- Retain uncertain Native owners after failed restart, idle timeout and
failed-turn closure.
- Prepare Native retirement through the existing heartbeat facade. Reuse
provider closure and stopped-file collection.
- Track preparation under the exact idle owner and expiry. Reject new
activity, changed holds and expired holds before and after awaited work.
- Take the final durable and local safety snapshot after preparation.
Keep diagnostic inspection passive.
- Cover ephemeral workspace retirement and useful next use, supported
plugin drain and SDK persistence, busy owners, failed closure and hold
replacement.
- Keep dedicated recovery storage explicit. Use the same validated
options for support and storage. Probe-free helpers retain the original
implementation bodies and preserve default callers.
- Complete the Native fixture through real retirement and budget
evaluation. Keep its rejection, file, credential, accounting and strict
NONE assertions.
- Repeat the complete chat authorization once if the fallback sees the
exact batch now processed. Preserve owner locks, principal and binding
checks, denial handling and the original retry deadline.

## Verification

- The support-mode regression reproduces one failure with four passes
under the old policy, then passes all five controls. It retains prior
allocation and cleanup cases. The explicit mode does not probe embedded
PostgreSQL or use an admin alias.
- The deterministic chat race baseline reproduces two authorized
failures with all four current-authority denial controls passing. Both
Slack and Discord use real PostgreSQL and the real authorization
function. The negative setup commits before the attestation transaction;
it does not claim to revoke access through a row lock.
- The product fix passes normal own App declaration emission with no
public declaration changes, plus both current normal owning compiler
programs (399 and 611 roots). The same six controls pass after the fix.
The full original file plus these controls passes all 30 tests with no
skips.
- The original controlled Native continuation passes: one test, no
failures or skips, 1.718 seconds in its body and 23.138 seconds in its
launcher. The original 40-second case and 180-second outer bounds are
unchanged. It verifies held closure, strict NONE, an ordinary authorized
comment, saved session/files, useful output, encrypted credentials,
accepted results and settled accounting. All ten observed processes and
groups close; worker connections and listeners reach zero. A separate
post-owner audit finds zero sessions; the successful owned database is
normally removed.
- Earlier preparation, HTTP, lifecycle, workspace and plugin controls
remain source-specific evidence. They are not a claim that every
final-tree test ran locally.
- The original CI assertion log is retained. The controlled race proves
a possible cause; the original CI SQL schedule was not captured. Two
other jobs lost their self-hosted runners and provided no test verdict.
Earlier asset timeouts, readiness failures and unexplained later
recovery remain separately recorded. No timeout, failure predicate or
authority check was weakened.

Focused public commands:

```sh
pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/idle-sleep-preparation.test.ts server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-routes.test.ts --maxWorkers=1 --no-file-parallelism
pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-reviewed-chat-binding.integration.test.ts --maxWorkers=1 --no-file-parallelism
```

Local database qualification uses fresh owned test databases on existing
PostgreSQL, bounded pools and one worker. The local allocation adapter
changes only database allocation for this test module; it runs normal
migrations and client cleanup. It is not part of the published source.
No new cluster is created.

Local acceptance measured the `0a69efa6` integration with the same
committed authorization bytes. The later normal master merge adds
startup-timeout classification and recovery changes. Those paths are
outside the controlled healthy-backend witness; retirement and
authorization hunks are preserved. Exact-head remote CI at
`7f6f02b611dcf5a9a2b05173a44e9631eaf78058` has completed with 56
successful contexts and four skips. The complete current Greptile
summary is5/5 with no new actionable findings; all review threads are
resolved. Ponytail’s current turn is explicitly paused without a
current-head verdict; earlier actual findings are fixed and accounted
for. No whole final-tree local repository build/test run, live-provider
restore or deployed suspension is claimed.

Actual master subsequently advanced to
`d5c4f7dd02d408a261cedd9a1926b9900a4aedc4`. Its local normal-merge
projection with this reviewed head preserves all20 owned paths and every
unrelated master blob and mode. Current Runner TypeScript, App
declarations and their full owning compiler programs pass. Focused
Native cleanup and warm-continuation composition checks are being
completed before merge; the new upstream suspension-retry behavior is
not inferred from the older controlled-backend witness. The remote PR
head remains unchanged.

## Risks

- Privileged idle preparation can close idle warm Native sessions. It
requires the exact current hold.
- Failed closure retains its owner and can keep the tenant awake until
normal retry succeeds.
- A changed hold cannot authorize sleep. Started cleanup remains tracked
until it settles.
- The chat repair can perform one extra full authorization read. It
keeps the existing deadline and does not grant authority from the
fallback query.
- Unsupported resources and active work retain their existing blockers.
This PR does not certify every transport, plugin or deployed host.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` produced the delegated changes and verification.
OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, performed managing review and integration.
Both used repository tools and code execution. The coordinator's exact
backend snapshot and context-window limits were not exposed.

DottaandPaperclip 55c9c44e41 fix: preserve database-only failed controller evidence (#19714)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip preserves failed work as well as successful work.
> - Ephemeral enrollment must retain each selected controller source.
> - A failed source can already exist entirely in an encrypted database
checkpoint.
> - Its original inline snapshot does not create a local filesystem
dependency.
> - The migration owner must prove that both legacy files are absent
before accepting that case.
> - This change preserves the failed evidence without creating execution
authority.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #19678.

**What happened?**

Startup still reports `native_controllers_require_migration` for a
failed retained source with a valid database checkpoint, its original
inline snapshot, and no local controller or supervisor. The online
archive owner reports that the source is already absent. The existing
database-only preservation case accepts only a missing inline snapshot.

**Expected behavior**

Accept the exact database-only failed evidence after full checkpoint and
identity validation. Keep a present local payload blocked. Retain the
failed run, original snapshot, coordinator, task pointer and queued
work.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Store a valid encrypted checkpoint for a failed native run.
2. Keep its matching inline session snapshot and terminal-failure
coordinator.
3. Remove both legacy controller files.
4. Check local controller obligations.
5. The old owner reports an obligation even though the evidence is
already in the database.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The fix builds on current master `d5c4f7dd02`.

**Deployment mode**

Hosted native Runner with durable controller checkpoints. The local
regression uses the existing real PostgreSQL and encrypted checkpoint
fixture.

## What Changed

- Add a narrow database-only failed-source preservation case to the
existing migration owner.
- Require the decoded checkpoint, protocol header, admitted execution,
selected run and inline snapshot to match their exact scope.
- Require both the controller and supervisor paths to be absent. A file
or link keeps the local obligation blocked.
- Retain the earlier null-snapshot predicate and all original failed
execution evidence. Create no recovery metadata or executable authority.
- Exercise the actual startup and maintenance consumers. Document the
preservation boundary.

## Verification

- Final revision `1b1da543dafd576e3c420657e3c2c6d0c882172d`: all checks
are terminal, with 56 successful and four skipped, zero pending and zero
failures. The [required CI
aggregate](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42329501690/job/128275664414)
passed. Build, types, server/Runner/serialized suites, end-to-end
aggregate and Snyk passed. [Fresh exact-head
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/19714#issuecomment-6701018015)
is 5/5 with no open threads.

- Review found that the first non-recovery assertion stopped at the
queued fixture's missing current binding. The fixture now binds the
exact native issue/session before calling the real resolver and asserts
`unsupported:metadata_format` from the selected failed source. That
corrected case passes in 4.58 seconds, with wrapper exit 0 and cleanup
complete. The production predicate is unchanged. The original startup
RED remains valid. The final source/test type graph, module boundaries
and diff checks pass. Fresh revision CI and review remain required.

- The actual startup regression failed before the source change: one
case, 16.62 seconds, expected the absent-files obligation to be false
but received true. The wrapper exited 1 and completed cleanup. This
failure is retained.
- The final focused owner run passed nine cases in 10.79 seconds. It
covers the new DB-only case, controller/supervisor presence, every
inline scope field, foreign checkpoint Runner/session identities, the
unchanged null-snapshot case, and existing online/offline archival
controls. The wrapper exited 0 and completed cleanup.
- The new case verifies unchanged run, coordinator, checkpoint and
task-session rows, retained queued work, no upload, and no invented
recoverable session.
- The full qualified server/test source type graph passes with
db/shared/Runner source aliases. Module boundaries and diff checks pass.
Required broad package builds and regression suites remain in CI.
- Read-only source diagnosis validated one exact existing checkpoint
with the canonical decoder and matching header, run, Runner and session
bindings. No source profile or secret values were emitted. No hosted
mutation, admission hold, cancellation, status change, or
writers-stopped claim was performed.

## Risks

- A false database-only classification could hide local bytes. Both
exact legacy paths must be absent, and every protocol and database
binding must match.
- Corrupt or mismatched checkpoints still fail closed. Existing failed
evidence does not become successful or executable.
- The original null-snapshot case is unchanged. Present local files
still require the existing preservation path.

## Model Used

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 a5fe5deebe fix(environments): reclaim sandboxes left by a restart during acquire or teardown (#19696)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Remote agent runs execute in provider sandboxes (for example
Daytona) that Paperclip creates and must clean up
> - Before each provider create, Paperclip saves a durable creation
intent (`sandbox_creation_operations`). Recovery uses it to find and
destroy a sandbox whose lease was never committed
> - Recovery waited 30 minutes after creation before it checked an
intent, because a live server could still be waiting for the provider
> - After a restart, the creating server is gone, but the intent still
waited the full 30 minutes. A short-lived or redeployed instance never
reclaimed those sandboxes
> - The teardown that follows has the same problem: a teardown claim
fences other sweeps for 15 minutes, and a restart during the claim kept
the sandbox alive until the fence expired
> - This pull request saves the server process identity with each intent
and each teardown claim, and ends the wait when same-host proof shows
that process exited
> - The benefit is that a restart during sandbox acquire or teardown no
longer leaves paid provider sandboxes behind

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
A control-plane restart during Daytona sandbox acquire left the created
sandbox without an `environment_leases` row. In one restart chaos wave,
6 creation intents stayed `pending` with `next_attempt_at` = creation +
30 minutes. The wave ended (and its environment was deleted) before that
time, so 4 sandboxes stayed `stopped` in Daytona. Only Daytona's own
auto-delete would remove them. Two of the runs did not exist in
`heartbeat_runs` because they were non-run acquires; their intents still
had the run id.

**Expected behavior**
After a restart, each sandbox that this instance and company created,
with no committed lease and no live creator, is found by its exact
creation name and labels and destroyed through the plugin, after the
existing ownership checks. Sandboxes from another instance, another
host, or a live server stay untouched. Nothing acts org-wide.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a Daytona-backed run.
2. Kill the server (SIGKILL) after the creation intent commits and
before the lease commits.
3. Restart the server. On master, the intent stays `pending` for 30
minutes and the sandbox stays in Daytona.
4. The regression tests in
`server/src/__tests__/sandbox-creation-operations.test.ts` reproduce
this with the controlled provider fixture.

Refs #18357 (added the durable creation intent this change completes).

**Paperclip version or commit**
master 07a548073a (live proof at 8d525dba7d + this change,
content-matched to the runner image)

## What Changed

- New `server/src/services/controller-process-identity.ts`: records the
server boot id, PID, a PID-space hash and the process start time. The
PID-space hash covers the hostname, the kernel boot id and the PID
namespace on Linux (the hostname and boot time elsewhere), so containers
that share a hostname but not a PID namespace never judge each other. It
proves that a recorded process exited only in the same PID space: the
PID is gone, or the PID is live with a definitely different start time.
Another PID space, an unreadable identity, an unidentified record, or
this server never counts as exited.
- `sandbox-creation-operations.ts`: each creation intent stores the
creating process and its settle deadline. Each recovery pass first moves
intents whose creator exited to "due now". If the early lookup finds no
sandbox before the settle deadline, the intent stays `pending` and
retries. It does not become manual reconciliation, because the provider
can still materialize an aborted request.
- `heartbeat/recovery.ts`: each pending-cleanup teardown claim stores
the claiming process, bound to its claim attempt id. Before the sweep
reads due leases, it ends the 15-minute fence of a claim whose claimer
exited. A newer claim from another path (workspace repair, export retry)
that kept an older record has a different attempt id, so it is never
released.
- Both recovery passes page through candidates with a stable id cursor.
Live, foreign or unidentified owners therefore cannot hide an abandoned
record behind one page.
- This covers every `createOwnedSandbox` caller, including non-task
probe and qualification acquires. Their intents have no issue and a
generated run id, which is why their run ids are missing from
`heartbeat_runs`.
- Recovery uses only the existing paths: exact
`paperclip-create-<operation id>` name and label inspection in the
plugin, `pending_cleanup` lease, and plugin teardown. No org-wide
listing or deletion was added.

## Verification

- Red, then green (controlled provider fixture, real embedded
PostgreSQL):
- `sandbox-creation-operations.test.ts` → "after the creating server
exits mid-acquire". Before the fix, the exited-creator case left no
cleanup lease. After the fix, the next sweep creates the
`pending_cleanup` lease and the teardown destroys the sandbox.
Counter-tests: a creation owned by this live server, another live
process, another host, or a committed lease is not inspected or
destroyed. An early "not found" keeps the intent pending, and a later
sweep still finds a late allocation.
- `heartbeat-pending-cleanup-sweep.test.ts` → "a teardown claim whose
server stopped mid-attempt". Before the fix, a lost claim blocked the
teardown. After the fix, it retries now. Counter-tests: claims from this
live server, another host, or without an identity keep their fence.
- Review regressions: "keeps the fence of a newer claim that kept an
earlier attempt's server record" and "pages past more fenced claims than
one sweep page" fail on the previous commit and pass now. "pages past
more unprovable creations than one page" guards the creation-side
cursor; the old unordered page happened to include the row, so it was
not red.
- After the review changes, `sandbox-creation-operations`,
`heartbeat-pending-cleanup-sweep`, `live-recovery-work` and
`environment-cleanup-work` pass (155 tests), and `tsc --noEmit` for
`server` passes.
- Related suites pass: sandbox-creation-operations (28),
environment-cleanup-work, task-creation-recovery,
native-startup-cleanup-recovery, sandbox-orphan-cleanup-spool,
plugin-warm-tasks, idle-completed-history (187 total), and the
pending-cleanup sweep suite. `tsc --noEmit` for `server` passes.
- Live Daytona restart chaos wave `w-20261107T001609-s11` (codex, A1,
K2+K4, concurrency 2, RC-06 masked, image `sha256:2767e91c…`, first fix
only): 4/4 tasks pass, all restart-crossing, R6 pass for every task,
`orphanSandboxes: []`. The server log and database show two creation
intents killed by K4 being reconciled right after restart and destroyed
through Paperclip. A third reclaimed sandbox lost its teardown claim to
the next K4 kill in the same second, so its 15-minute fence blocked the
environment delete. The second commit fixes that.
- Live Daytona wave `w-20261107T012048-s11`, same plan, both commits:
**4/4 pass, all restart-crossing, R6 pass for every task,
`orphanSandboxes: []`, no held leases.** The environment delete through
Paperclip succeeded with `remainingSandboxes: []`. One restart-time
sweep destroyed one sandbox through the plugin.

## Risks

- Same-host proof relies on PID liveness and process start time, as
native controller takeover already does. A false "exited" result is
limited to recovery running early. The plugin still checks exact name
and labels before any delete. An early not-found result stays pending.
- Multi-host deployments sharing one database keep the old deadlines,
because a different PID space is never judged. A redeploy into a new
host or PID namespace also keeps the old deadlines (fail closed).
- The live waves ran before the review commits. The review commits only
narrow when a record is judged, and they add paging.
- Intents and claims written before this change have no process
identity, so they keep the old deadlines.
- No schema change. The new fields live in existing JSON metadata.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 f09b4704b6 fix(recovery): keep the agent's work when Retry continues after exhausted or blocked recovery (#19666)
## Thinking Path

failed run

Retry

starting over

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
After `native_restart_recovery_blocked` or an exhausted recovery
generation, a Retry ran in
`isolated-workspace-attempts/<company>/<issue>/<run>/workspace`. That
directory was a detached clone of the base ref. It did not contain the
uncommitted edits from the issue's git worktree. It was not on the task
branch. The agent was not told where the old files were. A restart-chaos
wave graded this as an R2 failure (`pre_fault_files_lost`). A second
defect: when a restart hit the bootstrap of a fresh attempt, preparing
the same run again failed with
`isolated_task_directory_binding_mismatch`, so the Retry could not
finish.

**Expected behavior**
Retry continues in the task's own workspace with its edits and `.git`
intact when no other writer can hold it. When a fresh attempt is really
needed, the old directory stays as it was and the agent gets its path
and its changed files. Preparing the same attempt again after a restart
is idempotent.

**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at `e482f0f632`, restart-chaos waves on 2026-11-06.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a native task in a git worktree. Let the agent write an
uncommitted file.
2. Kill the control plane so recovery ends in
`native_restart_recovery_blocked` or an exhausted generation.
3. Click Retry.
4. The successor runs in a fresh clone without the uncommitted file or
the task branch.

Root cause:
- `server/src/services/fresh-workspace-continuation.ts`
`canSelectFreshWorkspace` returns a fresh intent for every task Retry
that has a system recovery record.
- `server/src/services/explicit-native-continuation.ts` (fresh selection
in the source loop) then always persisted `fresh_isolated_workspace`.
- `server/src/services/fresh-workspace-seed.ts`
`materializeFreshWorkspaceSeed` clones the project source at the base
ref with `--no-local`, checks out a detached commit and removes
`origin`. Uncommitted work and the branch are not carried over.
- RC-35: `server/src/services/heartbeat/workspace-preparation.ts`
rejected any reusable existing workspace while `fresh` was true,
including the attempt directory that the same run had already created
and bound.

## What Changed

- New continuation mode `reuse_issue_workspace`. At Retry admission,
after all stop proofs pass, `retainedIssueWorkspaceForRetry` checks that
the task's bound workspace is the single local directory the failed run
used, owned by the task, not a shared workspace, not under remote
storage authority, with no other lease, failed cleanup or running
workspace operation, a settled recovery generation, no workspace-export
failure, and a readable Git state rooted at that directory. Then the
Retry continues there with a fresh session. Otherwise the existing fresh
attempt is kept.
- The reuse decision consumes the generation's one alternative attempt
(`freshAttemptRunId`), sets the Retry strategy to `continue`, and
records `issue.retry_workspace_reused`.
- Environment selection pins the reused workspace binding and fails with
`retry_workspace_binding_mismatch` if the binding changed before
dispatch.
- Fresh fallback: the run's continuation context gets `priorWorkspace`
(path, branch, bounded list of uncommitted files). Git status is read
with optional locks disabled. The prompt tells the agent to inspect it
and carry over the work. The old directory is not changed.
- RC-35: preparing the same fresh attempt again after a restart reuses
the attempt directory that this run already bound.
- Reuse checks run Git through the shared workspace scan scheduler with
short deadlines, because admission can hold the issue lock.
- `doc/task-recovery.md` and `doc/execution-semantics.md` describe the
new contract.

## Verification

- `server/src/services/retry-workspace-continuity.test.ts` (embedded
Postgres, real git worktree with uncommitted edits):
- exhausted-generation Retry and blocked-recovery Retry continue in the
same worktree, `.git` file and branch intact. Both failed before the fix
(readiness was `fresh_isolated_workspace`).
- Blocked recovery without a generation and duplicate holds for one run
also reuse the worktree. A running operation orphaned by a restart of
the stopped source does not block reuse.
- The fresh attempt is kept when the workspace is unsafe: live lease,
running workspace operation, corrupt `.git`, missing directory, remote
authority, shared workspace, running export generation. `priorWorkspace`
is omitted for the unsafe writer and shared cases.
- `workspace-preparation.test.ts`:
- A `reuse_issue_workspace` Retry prepares in the original worktree with
its uncommitted file and branch.
- RC-35 red/green: re-preparing the same fresh attempt reuses its bound
directory and keeps files written before the restart. Another run still
gets `isolated_task_directory_binding_mismatch`.
- The fresh fallback sets `priorWorkspace` with the old path and
`unpublished.txt`.
- `environment-selection.test.ts`: the new mode pins the binding and
rejects a changed binding or cwd.
- `packages/adapter-utils/src/server-utils.test.ts`: the prompt names
the retained directory and its files.
- Regression files run locally: `workspace-preparation`,
`environment-selection`, `task-retry`, `quarantined-task-retry`,
`explicit-native-continuation`, `workspace-recovery`.
- Restart-chaos (`tests/restart-chaos`, local, B1+B5, codex+claude,
K1/K4/K6, concurrency 2, rc06-masked):
- Final head: wave `w-20261107T014633-s7206` on `c6776283f3`: 8/8 PASS,
all 8 restart-crossing. 5 tasks needed a Retry (t03-t07: codex B1 K6,
codex B1 K1, codex B5 K6, codex B5 K1, claude B5 K6). All five finished
in the original git worktree with `.git` and every pre-fault file
present (`workspaceMovedTo` empty, `lostFiles` empty); no "Retry keeps a
fresh attempt" log line.
- Wave `w-20261107T004829-s7205` on `29373a6b6a`: 8/8 PASS, all 8
restart-crossing. 3 tasks needed a Retry (t02, t06, t07). All three
finished in the original git worktree with `.git` and every pre-fault
file present; no "Retry keeps a fresh attempt" log line. (`cc178492ef`
only makes the operation filter stricter for run-less jobs.)
- Wave `w-20261107T000412-s7204` on `d197082107`: 8/8 PASS, 7
restart-crossing. 3 tasks needed a Retry (t02, t04, t06). All three
finished in the original git worktree (`workspaceMovedTo` is empty), R2
passed with `.git` and every pre-fault file present, and no "Retry keeps
a fresh attempt" log line appeared.
- Wave `w-20261106T231416-s7203` on the first commit: 6/6 PASS, but its
t01 Retry still moved to `isolated-workspace-attempts`. That instance
was not kept, so the exact rejection was not recorded. The likely cause
is a `running` workspace operation that a killed server left on the
stopped source (the source restarted three times). The second commit
treats such restart orphans as not live and logs the rejection reason. A
`--replay` of that t01 on `d197082107` finished in the original worktree
with its `.git` file and no attempt directory.
- Review follow-ups in `d197082107`, `29373a6b6a`, `cc178492ef` and
`c6776283f3` (run-less workspace jobs still block reuse; red/green
covered by the `running_operation` case): holds are grouped by source
run; the readiness fallback (blocked recovery without a generation) also
reuses the task workspace; Git probes go through the shared scan
scheduler with 10-15 s deadlines; `priorWorkspace` is only set for a
task-owned directory with no other writer; the reuse rejection reason is
logged; `priorWorkspace` uses the same task-owned, settled,
single-writer predicate as reuse; Git probes share one budget per
workspace; the RC-35 check is a pure path check; renames are parsed from
either porcelain column.

## Risks

- A Retry now writes into the old directory instead of a new one. The
checks above prevent a second writer. A stale binding fails the run with
`retry_workspace_binding_mismatch`; it does not write to another
directory.
- If the cause of the failure was inside the workspace itself, reuse
could repeat it. Workspace-export failures, restore failures and
required workspace recovery keep the fresh attempt.
- A workspace operation of the stopped source that started before the
source settled and before the current server process no longer blocks
reuse (a restart orphan). Operations with no run, of another run, or
started in the current process still block it.
- `priorWorkspace` is an optional new field in the continuation
envelope. Older adapters ignore it.

DottaandPaperclip d5c4f7dd02 fix: preserve shared Git sources during online workspace migration (#19688)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip preserves the work produced by its agents.
> - Remote workspace migration must preserve legacy Git history and
local edits.
> - Linked checkouts can share administration and objects with other
tasks.
> - A task lock alone cannot exclude writers of a shared or borrowed
store.
> - The online source owner must derive and retain the full physical
ownership closure.
> - This change reuses task, project, lifecycle and finalizer locks for
that closure.
> - Idle legacy Git work can then migrate while unrelated remote turns
continue.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #19642.

**What happened?**

Online migration keeps legacy Git sources blocked because several task
checkouts can share a project base or a private Git cache. A read-only
source observation found 160 pending Git records, 120 distinct paths and
nine common stores. Its largest project cohort contained 126 records and
110 task owners. An ordinary-directory fence cannot preserve these
sources by itself.

**Expected behavior**

Derive the physical source owners from stable Git metadata. Hold their
existing source and lifecycle keys through publication. Retain all
history and recovery obligations. Reject foreign aliases, unknown stores
and changed sources. Let unrelated object-backed work continue.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create a managed project checkout and linked task worktrees.
2. Keep a settled prepared recovery source on a sibling task.
3. Keep unrelated remote work running.
4. Request an online import of an idle leaf checkout.
5. The existing owner keeps the shared source blocked.

**Paperclip version or commit**

This branch builds on merged #19642 (`7ac99718a4`) and fresh master
`fb3cf1a072`. It adds the Git closure. It does not add a writers-stopped
shortcut.

**Deployment mode**

Hosted native Runner with remote workspace storage. Local qualification
uses owned synthetic Git repositories, disposable PostgreSQL databases
and the actual archive and storage owners.

## What Changed

- Read bounded stable Git pointers, common-directory metadata and local
alternates. Derive the complete physical source ownership cohort.
Preserve all object stores.
- Retain common and borrowed store owners in preparation, lifecycle,
runtime, expiration and actual reopen paths. Keep company boundaries and
the existing 128-key bound.
- Hold exact sibling native recovery proofs under their existing
physical finalizer keys. Recheck descriptors, allocations, recovery
actions and source identities before capture and publication. Preserve
original states and warnings.
- Require leaf-first nested imports. Reuse the existing immutable child
download, restore and source comparison before parent exclusion.
- Bind the self-contained archive owner to the held Git namespaces. Keep
its three walks, history normalization, fsck, bytes and digest format.
Reject bare, detached, network, unknown or changed Git storage.
- Check both foreign path fields. Keep foreign metadata private.
Document the proof, bounds, source observation and remaining eligibility
limits.

## Verification

- Final revision `2934e41c923b93e16508b978c849b747c86be645`: all checks
are terminal, with 56 successful and four skipped, zero failures and
zero pending. The [required CI
aggregate](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42326464408/job/128266279210)
passed. Build, types, all server/Runner/serialized suites, end-to-end
aggregate and Snyk passed. [Fresh exact-head Greptile
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/19688#issuecomment-6699760104)
is 5/5 with no open threads. GitHub reports MERGEABLE and CLEAN.

- Review then found two correctness gaps: an ordinary managed directory
inside an unrelated host repository was blocked, and a Git parent could
miss a completed nested operation after its child snapshot became
missing or deleted. Three actual-owner regressions reproduced both gaps
in 9.70 seconds. The corrected owner passes 12 focused cases in 17.08
seconds. It imports and restores only the ordinary root bytes, preserves
the outer repository, rejects both missing/deleted child receipts before
a parent journal, and retains valid/changed child coverage and
private-cache contention. Its wrapper exited 0 and cleanup completed.
The first bootstrap attempt failed before tests ran because the host
exhausted its 32 shared-memory segment limit; no shared services were
stopped and no pass is claimed for that attempt. The final qualified
source/test type graph, module boundaries and diff checks pass.
- Receipt scans keep canonical path resolution. A lexical SQL prefix can
omit children reached through symlinked ancestors. The observed full
metadata closure completed in 1.17 seconds; no measured bottleneck
justifies weakening that alias proof. Writer admission still rejects
uncertain Git ownership before mutation. Expiration returns its typed
skip, and reopen returns its structured failure. Runtime and lifecycle
do not bypass an unknown source. No broad error-contract change was
added.

- Full CI at `720104ea975e` exposed five existing boundary cases across
three server shards. Four exact cases reproduced locally as failures in
25.98 seconds. Reopen now preserves its structured failure when source
inspection rejects the path, without reconstructing it. Runtime
recognizes only the exact regular ignore-only `.git/info/exclude`
fragment; migration still rejects that fragment. The original
arbitrary-path and file-URL import/delete-host/resume fixtures keep both
supported input forms and use the genuine offline setup path after their
sole writer finishes. The production mode gate is unchanged. A new
real-owner control proves the offline flag still rejects a running
legacy database writer.
- The final focused run passed all ten cases across four suites in 22.75
seconds, including all five CI failures, invalid-pointer admission,
fragment rejection, offline writer exclusion and actual nested reopen
lock ordering. Its wrapper exited 0 and cleanup completed. The known
invalid-pointer case remains fail-closed; the separate unexpected-I/O
diagnostic retains safe error metadata without command text or
credentials. Existing Git stderr redaction coverage remains intact. The
final metadata reader suite passed 20 cases in 2.68 seconds. The
qualified server/test source type graph, module boundaries and diff
checks pass. No production assertions or timeout defaults were weakened.
Fresh CI and review are required for the repair revision.

- A later review found that the ordinary early return still used only
one foreign path field. The actual ordinary providerRef-only regression
failed as incorrectly eligible. One source-path owner now enumerates
both local locators for company/foreign ordinary and Git scans, layout
checks, early admission, lifecycle/reopen/runtime and
expiration/move/preparation retention. Capture and display keep their
original preferred path. The actual owner canary passed 49 cases across
two suites in 109.15 seconds. It covers
cwd-only/ref-only/different/symlink locators, same-company mismatches,
foreign owners, lifecycle ordering, Git/recovery imports and
expiration/reopen. Three selected-locator fallback cases also failed
before their guard; the final eight-case control passed in 31.05
seconds, including the configured alias and valid import/private-child
controls. All wrappers exited 0 and completed cleanup. The
metadata/locator suite passed 19 cases. The final source/test type
graph, module boundaries and diff checks pass.

- Review found two P1 gaps. Both configured-directory symlink cases
failed before canonicalization. The actual parent import lost an
already-imported child's unique private cache and failed its archive
fence instead of retaining that owner. The corrected real-owner canary
passed four cases in 20.78 seconds: configured symlink runtime
provisioning, private-cache contention before the parent journal,
successful parent publication after release, and unchanged/changed child
coverage. The metadata suite passed 15 cases in 4.14 seconds. Both
wrappers exited 0 and cleanup completed.
- A fresh source read-only observation found 160 pending Git records and
nine common stores. An additional exact receipt query found 1,243
completed migration receipts and 557 nested source paths under pending
Git roots. All 126 records in the largest project were present in the
captured Git metadata set. For all 110 present candidate workspace
records, the derived closure fits the unchanged 128-key cap. The worst
case needs 110 issue keys and one project key, with 17 keys of headroom.
Its 173 imported children introduce no physical issue owner outside
those 110 logical task owners. This checks the observed key bound only.
It does not claim migration eligibility or a coherent snapshot.
- The initial stacked CI did not run four Runner test lanes: trusted
master passed new --package-lane/--native-server options to the old base
lane script. The branch is now rebased onto actual merged master and
retargeted before synchronization. It includes the canonical current
lane parser without an unrelated Runner patch. Fresh new-head CI is
required.

- The actual importer/source owner run passed 36 cases across three
suites in 187.75 seconds. It covers sibling prepared recovery, unrelated
running remote work, common-cache contention, changed
coordinator/allocation/path state during upload, exact nested coverage,
dirty unpushed work, and existing expiration/reopen owners. Wrapper exit
0 and cleanup completed.
- A separate previously hanging lifecycle-worker restore passed in 17.33
seconds with the unchanged 15-second test-body limit. An earlier run
timed out in three expiration/reopen cases and blocked cleanup; its
wrapper later exited 1. These failures remain recorded. They are not
counted as passes.
- Two boundary controls first failed: a foreign providerRef-only alias
was incorrectly eligible, and actual reopen did not admit its distinct
cache owner at the initial source boundary. The narrow guards now
inspect both foreign locators and derive physical Git keys before the
raw lifecycle transaction. The foreign alias and existing real nested
reopen contention passed. The private-cache control first retained
contradictory recorded source provenance and stayed fail-closed after
release. The corrected present legacy-worktree fixture passed in 12.61
seconds. These failed attempts remain recorded; they are not passes.
- The metadata reader and serialized/local archive controls use actual
Git repositories. They compare archive bytes and digests, remove every
original source, restore staged and unstaged work, and run fsck. The
metadata reader passed 13 cases in 2.85 seconds. The local/serialized
archive controls passed nine cases in 9.27 seconds. All processes exited
0. An additional actual importer control changed a relative commondir
pointer to the absolute name of the same store during upload.
Publication was rejected, the uploaded journal remained available, and
original files stayed intact (one case, 5.86 seconds; wrapper exit 0 and
cleanup complete).
- The final rebased full local server/test type graph passes with
db/shared/Runner source aliases because reused dependency declarations
predate new master exports. The first rebased attempt reported those
stale declaration fields/tables, and is not counted as a pass. Module
boundaries and diff checks pass. Standard package builds, types and
broad regression checks remain required in CI.
- No hosted import, admission hold, cancellation, provider mutation,
source filesystem write or shared-cache Git command was performed for
this change. The source observation is read-only and is not a locked
eligibility proof.

## Risks

- A missing writer owner could make physical source exclusion
incomplete. Existing mutation owners retain the same
company/task/project keys, and uncertain metadata fails closed.
- A project can contain a large cohort. Limits remain finite. A bound
failure keeps the source blocked.
- Bare, detached, unowned or network Git stores remain blocked online.
Missing archived sources retain their existing authenticated
reconstruction path.
- Exact recovery proofs preserve authority and obligations. They do not
infer provider termination or mark a prepared descriptor finalized.
- This change does not claim all observed Git records are immediately
eligible. Existing preparation, provider, recovery, runtime and
source-change blockers remain.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 a894b11a2b fix(runner): retry a rejected runner suspension and log every cleanup quarantine (#19653)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A native run's close must prove that its runner durably suspended
before the session's next run may start. If it cannot, the runtime
quarantines the session (`NativeSessionCloseUnrecoverableError`)
> - In a restart chaos storm, an ACPX Claude run succeeded and its
normal close quarantined its own session. The follow-up run on that
session failed 2 s later with `native_session_cleanup_quarantined`, and
no control-plane restart came between the two runs
> - The close sent `runner.suspend` once, the ACPX sidecar rejected it
right after the turn completed, and the barrier gave up at the first
rejected command. No log line showed the quarantine or its cause
> - This pull request retries a rejected suspension within the close
deadline, and logs every cleanup quarantine with its cause when it is
created
> - The benefit is that a successful run no longer blocks its own
follow-up because of a one-time suspension rejection, and any remaining
quarantine can be traced

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
Run A (ACPX Claude) succeeded. The run log of its close shows:
- `runner did not prove durable suspension before checkpoint`
- `native_session_settlement_incomplete
{"runnerSuspended":false,"providerDrained":true,"suspensionState":{"commandStatus":"failed","runnerLifecycle":"suspended",...},"semanticTools":{"pending":[]},"finalProviderState":{"activeProviderTurnId":null,"providerSettled":true}}`

The runner journal shows `runner.drain` completed, then `runner.suspend`
failed with `failed to suspend ACPX provider: ACPX sidecar command
session.suspend was rejected (retryable=false,
classification=unclassified)`. The follow-up run B on the same session
was created 200 ms after A finished and failed 2 s later at admission
(`retryQuarantinedSessionCleanups`, operator recovery branch). The
server log had no line for the quarantine. One Retry completed the task.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run an ACPX task whose sidecar rejects the first `session.suspend`
after the turn completes.
2. Start a follow-up run on the same session.

**Expected behavior**
The close asks again, proves suspension, and the follow-up runs. If a
quarantine is still needed, it is logged with its cause.

**Actual behavior**
The close fails on the first rejection, quarantines the session, and the
follow-up fails with no logged cause.

## What Changed

- `runner/.../durable/runner.rs` (`process_command`): a failed
`runner.suspend`, on first execution or replay, now keeps the runner in
`Continue` instead of `Suspend`. Before, the runner recorded `suspended`
over a provider whose session was still open, then exited. The RC-34
journal shows exactly that: runner lifecycle `suspended`, ACPX provider
`session_open`. A failed `runner.shutdown` still stops the runner.
- `durable-prp-control-plane.ts`: a failed or rejected `runner.suspend`
now lifts the connection's terminal-lifecycle fence, so the next pending
command (the fresh suspend) is delivered on the same connection.
Completed suspensions and every shutdown keep the fence. New test:
"delivers a fresh suspension after a rejected one on the same
connection". Before the fix, the retry was never sent and the test timed
out waiting for the frame.
- `runnerd-codex-transport.ts` (`awaitRunnerSuspensionBarrier`): after a
rejected `runner.suspend`, the barrier sends a fresh suspend command, up
to 3 attempts, 250 ms apart, inside the same close deadline. An exited
runner or a spent budget still fails closed. A rejection changes no
state: the runner returns before it records suspension.
- `native-session-runtime.ts`: new
`onNativeSessionCleanupQuarantined(listener)`. It is called when a
cleanup quarantine is created or escalates to operator recovery, with
company, run, issue, session, `operatorRecoveryRequired`, a bounded
cause (error name, code, message) and bounded settlement facts.
- `server`: `logNativeCleanupQuarantines` logs each quarantine as a
warning. The subscription is process-wide and installed once, so closes
that fail during shutdown, after HTTP closes, are still logged.

## Verification

- Red before the change: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner
exec vitest run src/live/runnerd-codex-transport.test.ts -t "rejected
suspension"`.
  - "retries a rejected suspension…" got `false`.
  - "stops retrying…" saw 1 attempt instead of 3.
- Green after the change: both pass.
- Rust: new test
`rejected_suspend_keeps_the_runner_serving_its_controller` covers a
failed suspend, its replay, and an accepted retry with a fresh command.
`failed_lifecycle_commands_replay_their_terminal_transition` now expects
`Continue` for suspend and `Shutdown` for shutdown. The `pnpm run
check:runner` unit suites pass (559). `acpx_park_readiness` has two
timing tests (`< 500ms`) that fail at this host load on unchanged master
as well.
- New runtime test: "announces every cleanup quarantine with its cause
when it is created" (operator-required quarantine, cause and settlement
reported once). `src/native-session-runtime.test.ts` passes (212).
- The suspension cases in `runnerd-codex-transport.test.ts` pass, except
"proves local suspension after an event backlog… (1024 suffix deltas)".
That case also times out on unchanged master at this host load (27–35);
I confirmed this by stashing the change and rerunning.
- Server `tsc --noEmit` passes after the runner package build.

## Risks

- A provider that keeps rejecting suspension now gets three tries
instead of one, within the existing close deadline. The final outcome
and quarantine are unchanged.
- The cause of the ACPX sidecar's first rejection is not proven. The
logged evidence fits the sidecar's "not at a safe suspension point"
guard (`turnId`, tools or inputs still set) racing the just-completed
turn. This change makes close tolerate it. It does not change the
sidecar.
- Log volume: one warning per quarantine.
- The Rust change ships in the runner binary. Hosted images need a
rebuild to pick it up.
- After a failed suspend, the runner stays alive with its provider. If
every retry fails, close still treats suspension as unproven and kills
the owned runner process, exactly as before.

execution in Claude Code.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 30857db55e fix(native): recover a run killed between runner launch and its identity record (#19694)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs start a local `paperclip-runnerd` process. The server
records the request to start it, then records its process identity after
it spawns.
> - If the server is killed between those two records, there is no
process ID to check after the restart
> - Restart recovery then restarted the bootstrap, but the executor
failed with `durable_identity_unreadable` because the runner never wrote
its state
> - The user's Retry then waited forever with "Retry is waiting for
Paperclip to verify that the previous execution stopped", because the
stop check needs a process ID
> - This pull request restarts that bootstrap and proves on the host
that no runner for the run exists
> - The benefit is that a restart in the runner launch window no longer
loses the task or leaves Retry permanently stuck

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
In restart-chaos testing, an ACPX Claude run was created and the server
was SIGKILLed 1.3 s later, right after `native.process_start_requested`
and before the runner identity was recorded. On restart, recovery
claimed `bootstrap_incomplete` (`dead_runner_before_provider_identity`).
The executor then threw `runner_state_identity_mismatch:
durable_identity_unreadable`: the state root existed, but
`control-plane/control-plane-state.json` had never been written. The run
failed with `native_continuation_requires_reconciliation`. A Retry was
accepted (HTTP 200), but no run was ever created. The issue stayed
blocked with `retryWait.reason=process_identity_missing` for over 20
minutes and through another restart.

**Expected behavior**
When the runner never wrote state, no provider started, so the bootstrap
can start again. A Retry should be admitted once the host proves that no
runner for the run exists.

**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at `fb3cf1a072`.

**Steps to reproduce**
Create a native local task and SIGKILL the server about 1 s after the
run starts, after the runner launch is requested and before its identity
is recorded. Restart the server, then click Retry.

## What Changed

- `migrateRunnerdStateRootForExecution` (`native-session-executor.ts`):
for a `bootstrap_incomplete` restart on a local target, a root is
quarantined (kept for inspection) and the bootstrap starts again only
when both of these hold:
  - the root has no `control-plane-state.json`;
  - no live runner for the run exists on this host.

A state file that exists but cannot be read, or a runner that started
but has not connected yet, still fails closed with
`durable_identity_unreadable`.
- `unidentifiedLocalRunnerProvenAbsent` (`native-session-executor.ts`)
proves that a runner is absent when both of these hold:
- no host process carries the run's `--run-id <runId>` argument
(`paperclip-runnerd` is always started with it, detached and
unreferenced);
- no saved control-plane state for this run exists, in the canonical
root or in quarantine.

A provider starts only after its runner connects and writes that state.
- `native.process_start_requested` now records the launching `hostname`.
- `recordUnidentifiedLocalRunnerStop` (`native-local-process-stop.ts`)
applies the proof only when all of these hold:
  - the run is native;
  - the run has no process ID;
- its latest launch event is `native.process_start_requested`, from this
host;
  - all of its leases are local.

  A launch recorded without a host stays blocked.
- The process listing runs asynchronously with a 5 s deadline. A failed
or slow listing proves nothing.

It then writes `native.local_process_stopped` with null process IDs and
`basis: "unidentified_runner_absent"`. A later launch request
invalidates it as usual.
- The continuation and Retry gate (`explicit-native-continuation.ts`)
uses this proof before returning `process_identity_missing`. A dry run
checks the proof but records nothing.
- `doc/run-log-events.md` documents the new receipt basis.

## Verification

- `native-session-executor.test.ts`:
- The bootstrap restart with absent state was red before the fix
(`durable_identity_unreadable`) and is green after it (root quarantined,
backend admitted).
- Unreadable state, and a live runner that has not connected, still
reject.
- Proof cases: absent → true; a live process with `--run-id <runId>` →
false; this run's saved state → false; another run ID → false.
- `explicit-native-continuation.test.ts` (embedded Postgres, real
admission):
- The `absent` and `dry_run` cases were red before the fix (blocked) and
are green after it (admitted). Only the real admission records the
receipt.
- The `live_runner`, `saved_state`, `foreign_host` and `unbound_launch`
cases stay blocked.
- Broader local run after the review fixes:
`explicit-native-continuation`, `native-session-executor`,
`native-recovered-owner-followup`,
`native-runner-restart-recovery.integration` and `task-retry` gave 1836
passed, 0 failed.
- A chaos replay of the original task (`--replay
w-20261106T232854-s7103/t26`) passed (R1 PASS). Its kill landed after
the runner identity was recorded (`resume_dead_runner`), not in the
launch window, so the tests above are what reproduce that window.
- `tsc --noEmit` for `server` passes.

## Risks

- The proof depends on `ps -axww` listing every process on the launching
host. If `ps` fails or times out, the proof fails closed (still
blocked). Remote runners and other hosts are excluded.
- A runner that was spawned but has not yet written its state could be
mid-start when admission runs. It would still carry `--run-id` in its
arguments, so the proof refuses.
- Only the bootstrap path with no state file changes. Ownership,
checkpoint and reattach checks are unchanged.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 803cb3bfe3 fix(native): re-bootstrap an OpenCode runner drained before its first turn (#19704)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs start a local `paperclip-runnerd`. After a restart,
recovery may start the bootstrap again when the durable state root
proves that no provider work started.
> - #19665 added a proof for a graceful drain that lands after
`session.open` started a fresh session and before the first turn. It
requires every recorded provider process to have exited.
> - OpenCode records provider startup ownership twice during
`session.open`. The first record comes before launch, with `processId:
null` and `processGroupId: null`.
> - The proof treated `processId: null` as a process it could not prove
gone. An OpenCode run drained in this window still failed with
`runner_state_identity_mismatch: bootstrap_not_proven_incomplete`.
> - This pull request treats a null process id as "no process yet". The
benefit is that a graceful restart during OpenCode bootstrap continues
automatically, as it already does for ACPX.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19665, #19524

**What happened?**
A restart chaos wave sent SIGTERM to the control plane about 11 s after
an OpenCode run started. The drain suspended the run. At the next boot,
recovery verified that the local runner had stopped and chose
`bootstrap_incomplete`. The executor then failed the run with
`adapter_failed` and `runner_state_identity_mismatch:
bootstrap_not_proven_incomplete`. The kept state root had:
- `run.prepare` and `session.open` completed, with a freshly started
session (`status: "started"`);
- only `session.started`, `session.capabilities.updated` and
`session.goal.snapshot` committed;
- two `harness.diagnostic` events of type `provider_startup_ownership`
in the runner outbox, the first with null process ids and the second
with the server pid and process group;
- no turn command, and the OpenCode server process had exited.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start an OpenCode task on a local runner.
2. Send SIGTERM to the control plane after `session.open` completes and
before the first turn.
3. Let the control plane restart.

**Expected behavior**
Recovery starts the bootstrap again, and the task continues.

**Actual behavior**
The run fails. The task needs a manual Retry.

## What Changed

- `native-bootstrap-proof.ts`: the process-id collector skips
`processId`, `pid` and `processGroupId` values that are `null`. A null
value records a launch that has not produced a process yet. Any other
non-number value still fails the proof, and every numeric id must still
be proven gone.
- Tests: a red test with the OpenCode startup-ownership shape, plus
counter-tests for a live OpenCode server process, a non-numeric process
id, and a started turn.

## Verification

- Red before the fix: "allows a fresh bootstrap after a drain once
OpenCode opened its session before the first turn" failed with `expected
false to be true`. Green after the fix: the `native incomplete-bootstrap
evidence` block passes 36/36.
- I ran the proof read-only against kept real roots:
  - the OpenCode drained root now returns `true`;
- an OpenCode root from the same wave where a turn ran (108 events)
still returns `false`;
  - the three roots from #19524 and #19665 still return `true`.
- `native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts` and
`native-restart-recovery.test.ts`: 134 passed. `tsc --noEmit -p
server/tsconfig.json` passes.
- Live replay: see the PR comment.

## Risks

- Low. The change only skips null ids. Numeric ids still need a proven
exit. Any turn, provider output, resumed session, or remote runner still
fails closed.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 1aa0c36397 Fix execution after onboarding plan approval (#19698)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and their work.
> - First-task onboarding turns a user's goal into an approved proposal.
> - The interview offers a plan and a team to carry out that plan.
> - The instructions leave execution after acceptance unclear.
> - An agent can add a plan-only approval boundary and finish without
doing the requested work.
> - This change makes the approval scope explicit and tests both
execution and plan-only outcomes.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

An onboarding agent can treat an interview about building a product as a
request for a plan only. It can then retain the approved plan and close
onboarding without creating execution tasks. The interview evaluation
previously accepted that result.

**Expected behavior**

Acceptance of an execution proposal starts its selected work. An
explicit plan-only request stops after planning. User-requested separate
approvals and existing permission and budget controls still apply.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Choose the onboarding interview and describe a deliverable.
2. Accept the saved plan proposal.
3. Check that the agent starts the approved work instead of closing with
only a plan.

## What Changed

- Clarify execution intent, approval wording, continuation, and
completion in the first-task prompt.
- Require assigned child work and saved output in the interview
acceptance evaluation. Use checkbox acceptance in the regular interview
journey and retain conversational acceptance in the approval-reply
suite.
- Add an explicit plan-only acceptance journey and nine grader
regression checks.
- Update evaluation counts, grading versions, and onboarding
verification guidance.

## Verification

- Passed: all applicable CI checks on `198a6b47cac7`, including
typechecks, the general and serialized server tests, Runner checks,
build, and browser E2E shards. [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42324855376).
- Passed locally: the full Runner support suite, 6,860 tests across 323
files (three skipped), plus 13 onboarding asset tests.
- Passed locally: the full workspace build, workspace package typechecks
(server rechecked after restoring excluded-plugin SDK links), and the
Runner evaluation TypeScript check.
- Passed: map validation and whitespace checks.
- Initial broad local checks failed during checkout preparation because
PostgreSQL library symlinks and runtime/SDK assets were missing.
Restoring the dependency setup made the affected controls pass. The full
root test suite passed in CI; it was not rerun locally after that
repair.
- Live model journeys have not been run. Grader tests do not prove model
compliance.

## Risks

- Prompt behavior needs live qualification across providers. This change
adds no server-side enforcement or permission bypass.
- The new plan-only case adds four local evaluation cells. A full
campaign now has 56 first-task cells.
- Existing proposals that reserve later approval keep that restriction.
This change does not rewrite tenant data or start existing onboarding
tasks.
- No schema migration or deployment is included.

## Model Used

- OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol`, xhigh reasoning effort, with repository tools
and local test execution. Context window size is not exposed by this

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 c37bc749ac fix(native): keep restart continuations alive through early results and repeat restarts (#19699)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs continue a turn lost to a control-plane restart once, in
the same conversation (#15297, #19501)
> - In restart storm 3, two Codex runs each crossed one restart and
still needed a Retry
> - The continuation was attempted, but the driver failed it with
`turn_binding_mismatch`, and the run then reported "runnerd exited
before provider turn startup"
> - A second restart that loses the continuation turn itself also needed
a Retry, because the one-shot marker was already used
> - A restart should not cost a click when continuing is safe, and a
failure should name its real cause
> - This pull request fixes the start race, reports the driver's own
failure, and gives each admitted restart its own continuation
> - The benefit is that interrupted tasks finish without a Retry, within
the existing recovery budget

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19501, #15297, #19658, #19539

**What happened?**

Restart storm 3 (seed 7103, RC06 mask on, load 9–12). Codex B5 Retry
runs crossed one K1 restart mid-turn. After the restart, recovery
resumed the dead runner. The runner restored the conversation and
recorded `turn.failed` with `provider_turn_lost_on_restore`
(`recoverable: true`). The control plane started the same-conversation
continuation (`resumeInterruptedTurn` → `startTurn`). About 1 s later
the transport closed with `protocol_failure:turn_binding_mismatch`. The
run failed as `native_runner_process_exited: runnerd exited before
provider turn startup`. The task needed another Retry.

I reproduced it with the focused cell (`--workloads B5 --faults K1
--triggers retry`) and a temporary diagnostic. The failure is "Provider
semantic result did not name the active turn": a `paperclip/runResult`
reached the Codex driver while the continuation's `turn/start` was still
pending and no turn was bound. The driver waits for a pending start
before it handles `turn/completed`, but not before it handles
`paperclip/runResult`.

**Expected behavior**

After a restart that loses a turn, the run continues automatically when
that is safe. Each admitted restart attempt can continue once, within
the provider-attempt budget. A failure names its real cause.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run `node cli/node_modules/tsx/dist/cli.mjs
tests/restart-chaos/main.ts --env local --adapters codex --workloads B5
--faults K1 --triggers retry --tasks 2 --concurrency 2 --seed 4040
--rc06-masked`.
2. When a lost turn's continuation receives a semantic result before its
start settles, the run fails with `turn_binding_mismatch` and the task
needs a Retry. The race is intermittent: 1 of about 14 lost turns in my
runs.

**Root cause**

-
`packages/paperclip-runner/src/drivers/codex/codex-session-notifications.ts`:
the `paperclip/runResult` branch checked the active-turn binding without
waiting for `state.turnStartSettled`. The `turn/completed` branch
already waits.
- `codex-harness-session.ts` `startTurn`: the driver's own protocol
failure closed the transport. The pending start then reported the runner
exit, which hid the cause.
- `codex-session-terminal.ts` `mapTerminalTurn`: a consumed one-shot
marker blocked every later continuation in the run, even when the newly
lost turn was that continuation itself.

The one-continuation allowance is per run, not per issue or session
lineage: attaching a new run resets the marker. The storm runs did
attempt their continuation; the start race made it fail.

## What Changed

- Codex driver: a `paperclip/runResult` waits for a pending turn start
to settle before it is bound, like a terminal.
- Codex driver: when this session's own protocol failure ends a pending
turn start, `startTurn` throws `codex_turn_start_protocol_failure:
<code>: <message>` instead of the runner exit. CodexRpc errors and
protocol-integrity errors keep their own types. The server now
classifies this as `native_session_interrupted` instead of
`native_runner_process_exited`; both are retryable.
- A later restart that loses the continuation turn itself re-arms the
one-shot marker: the driver resets it as it was before the first
continuation. It does this when it maps the lost terminal, including
during recovery from a checkpoint taken while the continuation ran. The
checkpoint gate `nativeRestartInterruptedTurnId` stays strict: a
consumed marker still means the allowance is used. Each continuation
still needs an admitted dead-runner restart. The existing
provider-attempt budget bounds the repeats, and an exhausted budget
still blocks with Retry.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: an additive paragraph.

## Verification

Red before the fix, green after:

- `codex-app-server-driver.events.test.ts` "binds a semantic result that
arrives before its pending turn start settles". Red: `session.failed`.
Green: the result binds to `turn-1` and the turn completes.
- `codex-app-server-driver.events.test.ts` "names its own protocol
failure when that failure ends a pending turn start". Red: "runnerd
exited before provider turn startup". Green:
`codex_turn_start_protocol_failure: turn_binding_mismatch`.
- `codex-app-server-driver.recovery.test.ts` "offers another restart
continuation when a later restart loses the continuation turn itself".
Red: `null`. Green: `turn-2`. A checkpoint with a consumed marker still
returns `null`.
- `codex-app-server-driver.recovery.test.ts` "re-arms the continuation
when recovery finds the checkpointed continuation turn lost". This
recovers from a checkpoint taken during the continuation, then starts
the next continuation. Red without the re-arm (the marker stays
consumed); green with it.
- `native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts`: the same
checkpoint (continuation active, consumed marker naming it) is claimed
as `resume_dead_runner`. This is regression coverage.

Suites run locally on the final code:

- Runner: Codex driver, `native-session-runtime`,
`runnerd-restart-continuation` and contracts (745 tests).
- Server: `native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts`.
- `tsc` for the runner tests and the server.
- A few real-process tests timed out at about 6 s while six live agents
ran. Each passed when rerun alone. The settlement suite passed both with
and without this change at the same load.

Live (local, real Codex, macOS arm64), focused restart-chaos cell
`--adapters codex --workloads B5 --faults K1 --triggers retry,time
--tasks 6 --seed 4042 --rc06-masked`: 6/6 crossed a restart and passed.
R1 passed for all 6, so each continued without a Retry.

## Risks

- A run can now continue more than once in the same conversation, once
per admitted restart. Each continuation asks the agent to reconcile
unfinished actions before repeating them. The provider-attempt budget
still caps the repeats.
- A semantic result that arrives during a pending start now waits for
that start. If the start fails, the result is still rejected by the
existing binding check.
- The start race was intermittent (1 of about 14 lost turns), so the
live cell shows absence of the failure, not a forced repro. The driver
regression reproduces it deterministically.
- No schema, API or migration change.

## Model Used

- Anthropic Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`) in Claude Code, with
tool use, code execution, and extended reasoning.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 11c07c622c fix(native): restart a remote bootstrap retry that shutdown cut before runner launch (#19684)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs on Daytona start a `paperclip-runnerd` process in a
sandbox. Restart recovery decides what to do with each live or due run
after the control plane restarts.
> - #19616 added the `remote_runner_never_launched` proof. A claimed
remote run with no runner process request and no controller checkpoint
starts its bootstrap again.
> - A graceful shutdown closes the local runtime listener before its
drain. A remote run that is still starting then fails with
`local_runtime_api_listener_unavailable`. The executor settles it as a
same-run `bootstrap_retry` and releases its lease. #19596 treats this as
a restart detach only for local runners.
> - When the server restarted with that retry due, restart recovery
claimed the row. The proof accepted only rows that still held a lease,
so recovery blocked the task as ambiguous.
> - This pull request lets the same proof also admit that settled
`bootstrap_retry` row.
> - The benefit is that a graceful restart during Daytona startup
continues automatically.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A chaos wave restarted the control plane gracefully (SIGTERM) while an
ACPX Claude run on Daytona was starting. At 2 s after `stage.workspace`,
the run failed with `local_runtime_api_listener_unavailable`, and the
executor persisted "same-run resume persisted" with `recoveryMode:
bootstrap_retry`. After the restart, restart recovery returned
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence` with disposition `blocked`. The
task rested blocked.

Evidence in the saved database at that point:
- Coordinator `phase: retryable_failure`, `attempt: 1`,
`controllerGeneration: 1`, controller identity recorded, and no lease
owner.
- `failureDetail` recorded `recoveryMode: bootstrap_retry`,
`checkpointExists: false`, `providerEventsExist: false` and
`providerSessionEstablished: false`.
- The run had no runner checkpoint rows, no
`native.process_start_requested`, no process identity, and no
runner-sourced event. It also had no PID and no provider session.

**Expected behavior**

Restart recovery starts the bootstrap again, as it does for a claimed
run that holds a lease (#19616) and for a local run.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a native run on a Daytona environment.
2. Send SIGTERM to the control plane after workspace staging and before
the runner is requested. The run settles as a same-run
`bootstrap_retry`.
3. Restart the control plane while that retry is due.
4. See that restart recovery blocks the task with
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`.

Root cause: in
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-restart-recovery.ts`, the
`remoteRunnerNeverLaunched` condition required `phase === "observed"`
and a lease owner. The settled `retryable_failure` / `bootstrap_retry`
row failed that check. The remote classifier then returned
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`.

Refs #19616, #19596, #19583

## What Changed

- `native-restart-recovery.ts`: `remoteRunnerNeverLaunched` now accepts
one of two coordinator shapes:
  - an `observed` claim that holds a lease (unchanged);
- a `retryable_failure` with `recoveryMode: bootstrap_retry`, run status
`failed`, and no lease owner.
- All other proof conditions are unchanged. The run must still have no
process start, process identity, adapter, tool or runner-sourced event.
It must still have no process fields, no provider session, no provider
evidence and no checkpoint. The same three-attempt budget applies.
- An `exact_checkpoint_resume` retry keeps its own admission path.
- Admission: before claiming a settled retry, restart recovery applies
the same admission as the resumption reconciler
(`readNativeSessionResumptionAgent`): task pause hold, agent status,
dependencies, ownership, and competing runs. An ineligible retry is
deferred with `native_retry_admission_ineligible` and keeps waiting.
- `doc/run-log-events.md`: note the settled `bootstrap_retry` case.

## Verification

- Red, then green: `cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts
-t "bootstrap retry"`. Before the fix, the proven case and the budget
case returned `blocked` / `ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`.
- New cases: the proven case gets `bootstrap_incomplete`. The
coordinator returns to `observed`, `nextAttemptAt` is cleared, the run
returns to `running`, and no recovery action is created. A requested
process start or a committed runner event keeps the hold. A spent budget
blocks with `execution_recovery_budget_exhausted`. An
`exact_checkpoint_resume` retry does not take this path.
- Regression: `native-runner-restart-recovery.integration`,
`heartbeat/recovery`, `native-restart-recovery`,
`native-bootstrap-retry.integration` and
`native-remote-retry-admission`: 337 passed, 14 skipped.
- Admission: a paused agent's due `bootstrap_retry` is deferred with
`native_retry_admission_ineligible`. It is not started (red before the
follow-up commit, green after).
- Live Daytona replay of `w-20261106T234719-s12/t02`, 3 runs, ACPX
Claude B1, using the recorded K4, K2 and K1 sequence. Image: the wave's
own `paperclip-daytona-runner@sha256:2767e91c…`, with runner inputs
pinned to its revision e482f0f632 locally. The replays ran the first
commit of this PR.
- Runs 1 and 3 passed R1. Run 2 passed R3: one Retry worked on the first
click.
- Runs 1 and 2 failed R6 because the wave-end sweep found a run lease
still in `pending_cleanup`. In run 1 the environment delete also timed
out. These failures are not in this change's path.
- The restarts landed in other startup windows, so none hit this exact
`bootstrap_retry` state. The integration tests cover that state with the
same evidence as the saved failing database.
- Run 2 also exposed a separate gap. A graceful drain that suspended a
remote run after the runner launched (`awaiting_runner_reattach`) was
blocked as ambiguous on the next boot. The Retry recovered it. That case
is outside this PR.

## Risks

- The proof still depends on the executor writing
`native.process_start_requested` before a backend may spawn a runner.
The fail-closed tests pin that gate.
- Restart recovery and the same-run resumption reconciler can both see a
due row. Both claim with a conditional update on phase and attempt, so
only one can win.

tool use (shell, file edits, GitHub CLI) and extended reasoning.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 d26372dc8a test(restart-chaos): add a result trigger and recovered-run comment-wake guards (#19689)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The restart chaos harness kills the control plane at chosen moments
and grades whether each task still finishes correctly
> - One wave lost a user's follow-up comment after a kill that landed
after the run accepted its result but before the run settled
> - No existing trigger aims a fault at that moment, so the case was
hard to reproduce on purpose
> - The recovery path that settles such a run had no regression test
that covers the saved comment
> - This pull request adds a `result` trigger to the harness and a
regression test for the recovery path
> - The benefit is that the harness can aim faults at the
result-accepted window, and a change that drops, repeats, or re-wakes a
saved comment fails a test

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
In a restart-chaos storm wave, a user posted a comment while a native
run was active. A hard kill (K1) landed after the run accepted its
result and before the run settled. The run settled `succeeded` and the
task stayed `done`, but no follow-up run read the comment.

**Steps to reproduce**
The original failure did not reproduce. Three targeted waves ran 12
tasks with K1 at comment time or in the new result window. Every
follow-up comment was consumed exactly once. The new regression test
also passes on current `master`. The test and the trigger guard the path
and do not claim a fix.

**Expected behavior**
A comment posted during a run is consumed exactly once after the run
ends, including when restart recovery settles the run.

## What Changed

- `tests/restart-chaos`: add `--triggers result` (C1 only). K1 fires 0–3
s after the run that received the follow-up proposes or accepts its
result (`run.result.proposed` or `run.result.accepted`). The fault fires
only while that run is still `running`: the observer checks the latest
sample and rereads the runs right before dispatch. A run that settled
during the delay, or a follow-up posted at rest, records a `result`
miss. Add poll-driven unit tests for these cases and a README row.
- `server/src/__tests__/native-run-projection-work.test.ts`: add
embedded Postgres tests in which background recovery, not the executor,
settles the run (projection, environment settlement, and
deferred-receipt workers), with a deferred user comment and an active
local lease left by the killed executor. The tests check:
- The comment is promoted into exactly one follow-up run, and a second
restart adds none.
- A comment the run already received as a same-turn steer is not woken
again. The other saved comment still is.
- A queue whose only comment was steered stays cancelled, and no
follow-up starts.
- A Retry click does not consume the comment a second time. A click that
observed the source is stale. A click that observed the follow-up joins
it.

## Verification

- `cd tests/restart-chaos && npx vitest run --config vitest.config.ts`
(96 tests pass)
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/native-run-projection-work.test.ts` (54 tests pass)
- Live, local, ACPX Claude, Codex and OpenCode: `node
cli/node_modules/tsx/dist/cli.mjs tests/restart-chaos/main.ts --env
local --workloads C1 --triggers comment --faults K1 --adapters
codex,claude,opencode --tasks 4 --concurrency 2 --rc06-masked` passed 4
of 4. Two waves with `--triggers result` consumed each follow-up exactly
once. One task in those waves found a separate defect: a kill 1.4 s
after the result commit left the run `running` behind the dead
controller's 20-minute finalization lease. A separate pull request fixes
that defect.

## Risks

- Low risk. These are test and harness changes only. No production code
changes.
- The `result` trigger depends on the observer's poll interval (about 3
s), so the exact kill point within the window varies.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, run as an agent in
Claude Code with tool use (shell, file editing, local test execution).

DottaandPaperclip 5e4d24b6c8 fix(recovery): preserve admitted workspace on native restart (#19693)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - A Retry can admit a new workspace before native provider work
starts.
> - The native execution input records that admitted workspace.
> - A server restart must recover the same run under that recorded
contract.
> - Retry readiness previously evaluated fresh admission again after the
run had started.
> - This could replace the workspace and make the retained lease fail
its correct identity checks.
> - This change keeps the admitted workspace and leaves reattachment
authority with the existing lease and controller checks.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A native run started by Retry could do useful work, then fail after a
server restart. Preparation evaluated the original fresh-workspace
receipt again. It reserved a replacement workspace under the Retry
intent ID. The existing runner still owned the original workspace, so
setup failed with `native_remote_recovery_lease_mismatch`.

**Expected behavior**

Restart recovery must retain the workspace recorded in the same run's
native execution input. A later configuration or admission decision must
not replace it.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Admit a remote workspace for a Retry run.
2. Persist its native execution input and keep its original controller
and environment lease records.
3. Recover the same run while its canonical Retry receipt selects fresh
admission.
4. Preparation must reach the original lease with the original
workspace.

Related: #19340 preserves verified Retry workspaces. This change handles
an already admitted native run instead of selecting a workspace for a
new turn. Public duplicate searches for admitted/fresh workspace restart
found no matching repair.

## What Changed

- Stop fresh admission when a parsed native input names a real workspace
in the run's company.
- Validate the company, run, agent, and task binding before using that
input.
- Keep synthetic run-ID bootstraps on the existing admission path. Hold
missing real bindings.
- Test both recovery-action and ordinary user-Retry receipts against
real workspace, controller, and lease rows. Check malformed, foreign,
missing and opaque bindings, synthetic bootstrap behavior, and no-files
API controllers.
- Align the resume-owner fixture with the real transient run-ID binding.
Give each invocation a unique issue label so a CI test retry cannot mask
the original failure.

## Verification

- RED on unchanged production: the new reservation regression failed
with `native_remote_recovery_lease_mismatch` instead of reaching the
admitted lease.
- Review RED: an opaque task-workspace ID reached the UUID query. The
new guard returns the controlled missing-admission error before the
query.
- Review RED: a valid no-files Cursor controller was treated as a
missing task workspace. The existing task-workspace projection now keeps
that controller on its prior path.
- Clean final production-source regression: both restart cases passed in
a fresh embedded PostgreSQL cluster. These cover both receipt paths and
all binding, bootstrap and API-controller controls.
- The initial focused checks passed 11 cases. Seven existing ordinary
Retry and environment selection cases also passed. A later combined
final-base run had 17 assertions pass but failed workspace teardown at
90 seconds and task-Retry setup at 30 seconds. That attempt is retained
as a failure; the two new restart cases then passed alone with exit 0.
Earlier PostgreSQL support-probe failures are also retained as setup
failures.
- The worktree's own Runner, shared and SDK dependencies were built. All
seven server typecheck layers passed for the final production source.
The final additional commit changes only the existing resume-owner
fixture.
- Required CI found an invalid fixture binding in [server shard
11](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42322379917/job/128250151095).
The first attempt failed before lease acquisition because the fixture
named a random workspace with no row. The automatic test retry then
failed on its fixed issue label. The fixture now uses the transient
run-ID contract and a unique label. Its exact original acquisition and
owner-release assertions pass locally with exit 0.
- Whitespace and added-code-comment checks passed.
- Final commit `f0e41e8c6b949f43863ec60fc7b96b97025eafc6` passed
required
[CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42323826555):
56 successful checks, four intended skips, one neutral result, and no
pending or failed checks. Greptile and Ponytail both gave this exact
head 5/5 with no actionable findings. No review threads remain open.
Hosted deployment and original-task recovery remain separate from local
proof.

## Risks

Malformed or missing native admission records now hold rather than
selecting fresh work. Valid initial admissions and synthetic run-ID
bootstraps retain their prior path. The change does not grant
reattachment authority or settle provider effects. Existing controller,
workspace writer, lease, Stop, and trust checks still apply. No API,
schema, or configuration contract changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 family through Codex. The runtime does not expose the exact
serving model ID or context window. No model override was used. The
assistant used reasoning, code editing, shell tools, and local tests.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 9a52a2dfeb fix(native): retry ACPX session.open startup timeouts and give cold Claude a 60 s bound (#19661)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native runs start an ACPX provider through Runner. `session.open`
opens the provider session before any prompt.
> - On a loaded host, a cold ACPX Claude `session.open` took longer than
its 30-second bound. The controller reported
`runner_local_connect_failed: PRP command session.open timed out`.
> - The server classified this as the generic
`native_session_interrupted` with `ambiguous_state`, so the task was
blocked at once. A person had to click Retry, sometimes several times.
In one restart-chaos storm, one task needed three Retry clicks, and on
another task both Retry runs timed out too.
> - The server already has a bounded same-run bootstrap retry for
failures that come before provider work (#18854). It did not recognize
this timeout. The 30-second bound also cut off normal slow startups.
> - This pull request gives cold ACPX Claude a 60-second `session.open`
bound, like Pi and OpenCode (#19487). It also retries a startup
`session.open` timeout automatically on the same run, from clean state.
> - The benefit is that a slow cold start on a busy host completes, or
retries itself, instead of waiting for a person.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18854 (bounded bootstrap retry for definite `session.open`
failures), #19487 (60-second cold OpenCode admission), #19665 (the
bootstrap proof that this change reuses).

**What happened?**

ACPX Claude runs failed with `runner_local_connect_failed: PRP command
session.open timed out` about 35 to 40 seconds after they started. The
coordinator recorded `native_session_interrupted` with `recoveryMode:
"ambiguous_state"` and `providerSessionEstablished: false`. The task was
blocked with a board-owned action. No provider event and no checkpoint
existed. The host 1-minute load was 17 to 44, sometimes with no restart
nearby.

**Expected behavior**

A normal slow cold start completes. A `session.open` that still times
out during runner startup, with no provider event, no checkpoint and no
turn, retries on the same run with backoff. At most two automatic
attempts follow the first. A run where provider work may have started is
never retried automatically.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run ACPX Claude tasks on a host with a 1-minute load of about 25 or
more.
2. Observe a run fail after about 35 to 40 seconds with `PRP command
session.open timed out`.
3. Observe the task blocked with `ambiguous_state` and a manual Retry.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`master` at `6c7cc2c5d6`.

## What Changed

The bound (evidence below):

- `coldAdmissionTimeoutMs` gives cold ACPX Claude 60 seconds (live
adoption keeps 30 seconds). The runner's Rust sidecar
`session_open_timeout` and the sidecar's provider handshake
(`acpxSessionHandshakeTimeoutMs`) give Claude and Pi 60 seconds too. All
three bounds must agree, or the shortest one fails first. Claude's warm
run attachment uses the same cold budget, like Pi.

The automatic retry:

- `nativeSessionFailureSourceCode` returns
`provider_session_open_timeout` only for exactly `<startup failure
code>: PRP command session.open timed out`. The startup failure codes
are `runner_local_connect_failed`, `runner_direct_wss_failed` and
`runner_ingress_unavailable`. The transport uses them only before
startup completes. After startup the code is
`provider_transport_failed`, which is unchanged.
- `nativeProviderRecoveryEvidence` treats the cause as pre-session.
Durable evidence still decides: a bootstrap retry needs no provider
event (`session.started`, `turn.started` and the others) and no
checkpoint. The existing budget applies: three attempts with backoff of
about 30 seconds, then about 60 seconds. When the budget is used, the
task is blocked with the existing "Provider startup failed on 3 attempts
before any provider work began" action.
- A timeout is indeterminate: the runner can open a provider session
after the controller stops waiting. Live runs showed both leftovers, so
the retry now starts from clean state:
- `prepareNativeSessionOpenTimeoutRetry` (server) runs when the failure
settles. It quarantines a local runner root only when the
restart-recovery proof (`runnerdStateProvesIncompleteBootstrap`, #19665)
shows that no turn began and every recorded process is gone. Any other
root, and any remote runner, stays `ambiguous_state` as before.
- `resetAbandonedBootstrapRecord` (runner ACPX adapter) runs on a fresh
open (no runner-recorded identity). If ACPX has a saved record for the
session key with no messages, no prompt and no events, it is marked
`reset_on_next_ensure`. Claude saves nothing before the first prompt, so
reusing such a record fails the first turn with
`session_resume_required`. A record that holds any conversation is
unchanged.
- A chat retry of an exhausted `provider_session_open_timeout` run is
accepted like the other pre-provider causes.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md` and the Runner README describe the cause
and the bound.

## Verification

**Measured startup distribution** (ACPX Claude
`runner.session.bootstrap` / `runner.session.startup` spans from
restart-chaos run events, 1-minute load 8 to 44):

| Source | Bound | Successful cold bootstraps (s) | Failures |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Earlier storm evidence | 30 s | 2.9, 4.7, 7.4, 8.6, 8.7, 26.2, 27.4,
27.6, 29.2 | startups ended at 34.9 to 40.3 s (the 30 s `session.open`
bound plus spawn and `run.prepare`) |
| This branch, wave s3601 | 60 s | 6.3, 7.8, 8.1, 13.4, 14.4, 22.3,
22.8, 22.9, **37.3** | 0 `session.open` timeouts |
| This branch, wave s3602 | 60 s | 13 samples, p50 10.5, p90 17.9, max
25.7 | 0 `session.open` timeouts |
| This branch, wave s3610 (final head, load 28 to 42) | 60 s | 10.4,
11.3, 11.7, 12.0, 13.3, 14.2, 29.6, **30.4**, **30.9** | 0
`session.open` timeouts |

Under load, successes clustered just under 30 s and failures sat just
above it, so the 30 s bound was cutting the distribution off. With 60 s,
cold starts of 30.4, 30.9 and 37.3 s succeeded that the old bound would
have failed. 60 s is about 1.6 times the largest observed success, and
it matches Pi and OpenCode.

**Live restart-chaos waves** (local, ACPX Claude only, 4 in flight,
`--rc06-masked`, real provider, K1/K2 restarts):

- s3601 (8 tasks, load 19 to 32): 7/8 PASS. No `session.open` timeout.
The one failure is an R3 Retry signature after K1
(`native_restart_recovery_blocked`), not this cause.
- s3602 (8 tasks, load 17 to 39): 8/8 PASS. No `session.open` timeout.
Three Retry clicks were for `native_provider_terminal_failed`
(`provider_turn_lost_on_restore`), a different restart signature.
- Forced timeout, s3609 (4 tasks, B5, K2): a local, uncommitted fault
injection gave every other cold startup a 1.5 s `session.open` deadline.
Result 4/4 PASS. Run 4fe6537a timed out, retried itself on the same run,
and then succeeded through four K2 restarts with no person involved. Run
02799a85 hit the injection three times in a row; the budget stopped it
after attempt 3, and one Retry completed it.
- Before the two clean-state fixes, the same forced wave (s3607 and
s3608) showed the retry reusing leftover state: `turn.start` failed with
`session_resume_required`, and then "ACPX session is not open". Those
runs are the red evidence for the two clean-state fixes.
- Final head, s3610 (8 tasks, K1/K2, no injection, load 28 to 42): **8/8
PASS**, 0 `session.open` timeouts. The one Retry click (t06) was for
`provider_turn_lost_on_restore`, a different restart signature.

**Tests:**

- Red before the fix: `native-startup-retry.integration.test.ts -t
timeout` (embedded PostgreSQL, real executor, real resume claim). The 3
retry cases failed with `native_session_interrupted` /
`ambiguous_state`.
- Green: `native-startup-retry.integration.test.ts` passes 36/36. New
cases:
- for each startup failure code, a timeout retries on the same run with
backoff, keeps the task `in_progress` with an agent-owned
`resume_native_run` wake, and blocks after attempt 3 with a board-owned
action;
- no automatic retry when `session.started` or `turn.started` is
durable, when the code is `provider_transport_failed`, or when another
command timed out;
- a real runner root with an opened session and no turn is quarantined;
a root with a turn command stays `ambiguous_state` and intact; a remote
runner is never prepared.
- `codex-runtime-adapter.test.ts`: 113 pass. New cases: a 45 s delayed
handshake is admitted for Claude and rejected for Codex; a
never-prompted record is reset only on a fresh open; records with
messages, a prompt or events are kept.
- `abandoned-bootstrap-record.test.ts` (real `createAcpRuntime` with
`createRuntimeStore` and a controlled ACP peer that, like Claude, cannot
load a never-prompted session): without the reset, a fresh open reuses
the record and the first turn fails with SESSION_RESUME_REQUIRED after
`session/load`. With the reset, the provider receives `session/new` and
the turn completes.
- `vitest run src/drivers/acpx src/cli` in the runner: 107 files, 1,935
tests pass.
- `native-session-executor.test.ts -t "session.open|startup|bootstrap"`:
144 pass. `runnerd-codex-transport.test.ts -t "cold process admission"`:
4 pass. `cargo test -p paperclip-runner-core --lib admission_budget`
passes.
- `npx tsc --noEmit -p server` and the runner `tsc -p
tsconfig.test.json` pass.

## Risks

- **This changes Runner Rust code. The Daytona runner image must be
rebuilt after merge** for remote sandboxes to get the 60-second sidecar
bound. Until then, a remote Claude `session.open` still fails at 30
seconds in the sidecar (as a definite failure, which already retries). A
remote timeout stays operator-owned, because a remote root cannot be
proven clean here.
- A cold ACPX Claude start that hangs now fails after about 60 seconds
instead of 30 seconds.
- A timed-out `session.open` may have created an empty provider session.
No prompt was sent. The retry quarantines that runner root and asks ACPX
for a new session.
- Same-run retries of a fresh-attempt Retry run can still fail with
`isolated_task_directory_binding_mismatch`. This is RC-35 (workspace
re-preparation), which has its own fix in progress.
- No schema or API change. The new error code appears on runs and in run
error codes.

## Model Used

DottaandPaperclip b94963f91e fix: retry temporary repository catalog failures before dispatch (#19690)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - A task must check repository access before it starts agent work.
> - Repository discovery can fail while the user's existing grant
remains valid.
> - Discovery previously replaced a known temporary provider refusal
with an empty catalog.
> - The task then reported lost access and did not schedule recovery.
> - This change keeps temporary discovery failures distinct and uses the
existing bounded retry owner.
> - Each retry must pass a fresh access check before it can use the
saved repository.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A task with a saved catalog repository stops with an access denial when
GitHub returns an exhausted-quota response or HTTP 503. The task does
not start provider work, but the discovery layer discards the temporary
failure and returns an empty catalog.

**Expected behavior**

Known temporary failures before provider dispatch use the existing
bounded infrastructure retry. The successor checks the same responsible
user's current grants and reads the saved files only after fresh
discovery succeeds. A completed denial remains terminal.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Bind a task to an authorized catalog repository with saved local
changes.
2. Make its authorized GitHub discovery return HTTP 403 with zero
remaining quota, or HTTP 503.
3. Let discovery recover before the existing retry deadline.
4. Observe one successful successor using the original repository bytes.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on master at `b8d94b3ad1`. A search found no existing PR for
this temporary catalog failure.

## What Changed

- Keep a safe typed failure for known HTTP availability and quota
responses. Honor the later provider deadline and bound it to one day.
- Propagate that failure only when fresh discovery cannot find a
required repository. Preserve successful partial catalogs and the
existing connection setup error contract.
- Classify the failure only before provider dispatch. Reuse existing
bounded retry, interaction ownership, and bootstrap settlement rules.
- Keep current grant checks, saved repository selection, normal Stop,
and provider-started failure policy.
- Keep provider deadlines when accepted interactions use their own retry
owner. Recognize secondary HTTP 403 rate limits with valid retry advice
while keeping ordinary permission denials terminal. This matches [GitHub
rate-limit
guidance](https://docs.github.com/en/rest/using-the-rest-api/rate-limits-for-the-rest-api).
- Keep direct repository request responses outside the automatic
bootstrap retry contract. Test successful partial discovery and
missing-required-repository recovery with two independent eligible
connections.
- Document task repository discovery recovery.

## Verification

- Behavioral RED: real heartbeat and PostgreSQL fixtures reached actual
HTTP 403 and503 discovery responses, started no adapter, and found zero
successors instead of one. Both cases failed before the production
change.
- Behavioral GREEN: both cases waited for the real retry deadline, used
the normal queue worker, ran the controlled adapter once after fresh
discovery, and read the original saved bytes. Two cases passed in 74.73
seconds. No external model or provider request was made.
- Deadline RED/GREEN: a combined Retry-After and quota-reset response
initially selected the earlier deadline. The regression now selects the
later deadline.
- Initial repair at `d8d4714a18` (same production source as
`018e8c52d345d79972d7907468080dc9908c299f`): seven affected files
passed, 69 cases in 185.16 seconds. That test-only cleanup then passed
all five real-database acceptance cases in 134.76 seconds.
- Commands: `pnpm exec vitest run` with
`heartbeat-repository-catalog-recovery.test.ts`,
`github-catalog-timing.test.ts`, `github-grant-metadata.test.ts`,
`project-repositories-persistence.test.ts`,
`task-workspace-repositories-persistence.test.ts`,
`github-repository-catalog-failure.test.ts`, and
`services/heartbeat/retries.test.ts` from the server source tree. The
acceptance file also ran fresh at `018e8c52d3`. A fresh five-case run
after the P1 repairs passed at `f490ca6b78` in 122.06 seconds. The final
eight-case file passed fresh at
`e5b2efab11919467850f55fd6345317132b9b672` in 124.62 seconds, using real
owned embedded PostgreSQL. It covers automatic recovery with saved
bytes, genuine denial, provider-started classification, normal Stop, the
direct HTTP route, and both partial-catalog outcomes.
- Review repairs at `f490ca6b787cf77df96d3d6edfb2ab9115eb19a6`: both
reported P1s reproduced RED. The real database interaction scheduler
chose a retry after 24 seconds before the provider deadline of one hour.
A secondary HTTP 403 with valid Retry-After lost its retry
classification. The narrow fixes then passed 44 cases across scheduler,
header, and metadata-contract files in 37.66 seconds.
- A real direct request through the task workspace router and normal
error middleware reproduced a 500 response instead of the existing 403.
Required-ID retry mode now applies only to admission and its rechecks.
The route and both two-connection partial-catalog cases then passed in
29.09 seconds. Both partial cases use actual owned grants and credential
bindings.
- All seven server type layers passed again at final head
`e5b2efab11919467850f55fd6345317132b9b672`. The affected test type layer
passed again after the test-only cleanup. Environment: macOS arm64, Node
26.4.0, pinned pnpm 9.15.4, Vitest 5.0.3, owned disposable PostgreSQL 18
on loopback. The current checkout's shared packages, plugin SDK, and
Runner were built first.
- One local acceptance run under concurrent owned test/typecheck load
hit the unchanged 15-second Stop-case timeout. Its four other cases
passed. The unchanged complete file then passed serially. The timeout
receipt remains recorded; no assertion or timeout was weakened.
- A provider-started failure retains the existing generic adapter retry
policy. It does not receive the catalog no-provider certificate or a
provider retry deadline. Fixture cleanup cancels its scheduled retry
through the normal owner.
- Final head `e5b2efab11919467850f55fd6345317132b9b672` has 59
successful checks, 3 allowed skips, no pending or failed check, and
Greptile 5/5 with no open findings. [Completed CI
workflow](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42322202977).
- Additional local diagnostic for the late recovery-owner advisory: on
unchanged `e5b2efab`, the dedicated scheduler returned `retry_exhausted`
with attempt 3/max 2. The normal stranded sweeper then escalated once,
created no extra run, and started no adapter, even after catalog access
recovered. One case passed in 17.32 seconds. The existing
failed-predecessor path delegates to that bounded scheduler and returns;
it does not enter a new generic retry budget. No production registry
change was made. This diagnostic was not a CI case. Its local harness is
preserved separately at `74e3854eea3f7c4121fdcd9c8a8ad522cd8c7477` on
`codex/catalog-exhaustion-acceptance`; its production source is
identical to `e5b2efab`.
- Module boundary and whitespace checks passed.

## Risks

- A temporary failure from another eligible connection can delay a truly
missing repository for the existing limit of two attempts. It cannot
grant access.
- Unknown network errors and genuine access denials retain their
existing behavior. This change handles known HTTP failures only.
- Historical provider quota causality is unproven. This repair has a
separate local producer regression. It does not rewrite past failures or
queued user intents.
- Acceptance uses real local database and heartbeat owners with
controlled HTTP and adapter fixtures. It does not claim a live
native-provider recovery.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6.1 Codex (`gpt-6.1-sol`), with high reasoning, repository
tools, code execution, and controlled local PostgreSQL tests. The host
did not expose a context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip 254b44f72b fix(remote-workspaces): recover retired roots that cannot be renamed (#19674)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Remote workspaces must retain saved files across process and sandbox
replacement.
> - Restore uses identity receipts to distinguish a retired owned root
from an unrelated directory.
> - Some overlay filesystems reject a directory rename with EXDEV even
within one mount.
> - That error currently prevents a valid saved workspace from being
restored.
> - This pull request replaces only a verified retired root in place
when that rename fails.
> - Runtime state stays in place. Each restore holds a root-specific OS
lock.
> - A durable workspace epoch fence rejects delayed older commands. A
pending marker keeps interrupted cleanup recoverable.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Workspace restore fails with `remote_workspace_restore_failed:
stage=publish code=EXDEV syscall=rename` when the retired directory
comes from a lower overlay layer. Retry repeats the same rename.

**Expected behavior**

Restore should publish the verified saved workspace and preserve runtime
state. An interrupted restore should remain safe to retry.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create an owned retired root with a valid identity receipt, runtime
state, and stale files.
2. Make directory rename return EXDEV for the existing lower-layer root.
3. Restore a saved workspace through `restoreRemoteWorkspaceDirectory`.
4. Repeat with an interruption before the new restore receipt is
published.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The regression fails before this change on base
`a2aa69bc6230c8b81de3588d7d5571b38db4dd04`.

**Deployment mode**

Remote sandbox with an overlay filesystem. Local regression: macOS
arm64, Node 26.4.0, source checkout.

Refs #19231. Refs #19251. Those changes establish the retained-root
restore path. This fix handles its EXDEV publication failure.

## What Changed

- Keep the EXDEV fallback limited to a verified retired workspace root.
Preserve runtime state and the existing ownership checks.
- Hold a private SQLite OS lock across receipt checks, file replacement,
cleanup, and receipt publication. Keep the lock file outside the
replaced root. Process exit releases ownership; a lost reply does not.
- Pass the existing workspace authority epoch from the real restore
caller. Write and sync a separate epoch fence before root changes.
Reject lower epochs, conflicting identities within one epoch, and
missing epochs on fenced roots. The fence survives SQLite rollback after
process death.
- Publish a pending marker without a completed identity until stale
preparation-receipt removal and directory-mode cleanup finish. A retry
can finish that cleanup. A higher authorized epoch can then restore its
selected save.
- Preserve later file and permission edits when adopting a completed
restore. Refuse unsafe lock files and malformed authority records.
Document compatibility and the stop-evidence boundary.

## Verification

- RED before the original fix: real restore commands failed with EXDEV.
The test preload changes only the kernel rename result.
- RED before the review fixes: a live command with an unconfirmed
timed-out reply overwrote edits made after retry. Tests also reproduced
incomplete cleanup after receipt publication.
- RED before the authority fence: a delayed older command replaced a
newer completed restore. It also passed after the newer command was
killed before root mutation. The final test uses real separate Node
processes, OS lock contention, SIGKILL, and a durable on-disk fence.
- Final local checks: 142 transport filesystem tests, 16 real PostgreSQL
restore-caller cases, and all seven server typecheck layers. The caller
cases verify the published receipt uses the current workspace epoch.
- Late review RED: an actual separate SQLite owner made the real
PostgreSQL restore caller mark an expired lock wait non-retryable.
Corrupt fence and receipt bytes also produced a raw syntax error without
the required refusal reason. Both regressions now pass. Only the test
clock advances the lock deadline; actual OS lock contention and the
production caller run unchanged.
- Lock contention stays retryable only under the existing same clean
writer, epoch, and snapshot proof. Four negative cases change those
fields and remain non-retryable. After the owner stops, normal restore
returns the useful saved files. Corrupt authority records stay untouched
and non-retryable.
- Safety cases cover same and different authorized identities,
process-death lock release, an unrelated root making progress, pending
cleanup interruption, malformed or missing fences, invalid input, and
unsafe lock parents/files.
- The first final transport attempt passed 139 cases and failed only
because the restricted shell could not open a Unix socket (`listen
EPERM`). The full suite was then run with the required local socket
permission. No production change was made for that setup failure.
- Reproduce the filesystem checks from `server/`:
`../node_modules/.bin/vitest run --config vitest.config.ts
src/services/remote-workspace-transport.test.ts`. Run the caller file
with `-t "restores a newer save over this workspace|preserves the
published workspace path"` and the repository test PostgreSQL setup. Run
`node scripts/typecheck-layers.mjs` from `server/` for all seven layers.
- Agent preflight, module boundary audit, and `git diff --check` passed.
No added code comments or private issue references occur in the patch.
- Local EXDEV proof uses macOS arm64 and Node 26.4.0. It does not claim
a new Linux overlay-kernel run or hosted recovery. Final source:

completed with 59 successful checks, three conditional skips, and one
neutral check. Greptile gave this exact head 5/5. The independent review
passed. No review threads remain open.

## Risks

The EXDEV path changes files in place. It must finish before execution
admission. Participating restore commands use a private permanent SQLite
lock file and a separately synced epoch fence. The qualified sandbox
Node runtime must support `node:sqlite`. Lock contention has a
120-second limit and does not clear live ownership.

A legacy command that never acquired this lock remains outside its
protection. Hosted recovery must confirm that command stopped; a timeout
is insufficient. The new fence does not backfill that evidence. A
conflicting identity in the same epoch or a malformed fence stays
blocked. A higher epoch can recover an interrupted pending restore only
with the existing retired-root replacement authority. No controller
database schema, execution permission, or provider-state guard changes.

## Model Used

Anthropic Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`) authored the recovered
patch. OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, recovered, reproduced, repaired the
review findings, and verified the change with filesystem tests, shell
tools, and code execution. The Codex exact serving model ID and
context-window size are not exposed in this session. No value is
inferred for them.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 06bbcea12f fix(budgets): price lost receipts and stop restart-derived accounting from hard-stopping companies (#19673)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Budget admission and run accounting decide whether any task in a
company may start
> - #19497 made pending accounting an admission hold and settles a
stopped run's lost receipt as an unpriced charge
> - Restart-chaos waves still stopped whole companies. A lost Codex
receipt with complete token counts settled as unpriced because the rate
card only prices complete receipts. Under the default blocking policy
that hard-stopped the company at 0.38 of 3000 cents. In another storm, a
resumed run's continuation was refused by its own task's
recovering-accounting hold. Separately, unpriced charges with zero
tokens or a known partial cost hard-stopped a company at 120 of 2000
cents
> - This pull request prices a lost receipt's observed usage from the
rate card, lets a task's continuation pass its own recovering
accounting, and stops restart-derived or evidence-free unpriced charges
from tripping the blocking policy
> - The benefit is that a restart no longer pauses a company by itself,
while genuinely unpriced usage still blocks

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Follow-up to #19497. Refs #19606.

**What happened?**
- Wave A (K6 crash loop): native Codex run `5037b8d1` was killed
mid-turn. Its receipt was lost, but `usage_json` held gpt-6.1-sol with
28690 input and 220 output tokens. The charge was written
`cost_status=unpriced`, `pricing_provenance.source=unknown`, because
`priceCodexReceipt` returns early when `!receipt.complete`. 0.2 s later
the default `unpricedUsagePolicy=block` opened a hard incident at 0.38
of 3000 cents. The company was paused, and 6/6 tasks were blocked with
`canRetry=false`.
- Wave B (K1 storm): Claude run `2a7a8abf` resumed after the restart.
`reserveRunBudget` refused its interaction continuation with "New work
must wait while a native run recovers its unfinished accounting", so the
task could not settle its own recovery. A 0-token unpriced charge and an
unpriced charge with a known 0.81-cent cost then hard-stopped the
company at 120 of 2000 cents.

**What did you expect?**
A restart-lost receipt with known numbers is priced as an estimate, and
no restart-derived accounting state pauses a company by itself. A task's
own continuation is never held by its own accounting. Real usage above
the limit, and genuinely unpriced usage, still stop work.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Give a company a hard-stop budget with the default unpriced-usage
policy.
2. Kill a native Codex turn after it has reported tokens, so the final
receipt is lost and native recovery ends in terminal failure with a
verified stop.
3. Observe an unpriced charge for known tokens, a hard incident, and a
paused company.

## What Changed

- `run-cost-accounting.ts`: when a lost receipt settles and its usage
has known tokens and no known cost, price it with
`priceCodexReceipt`/`priceAnthropicReceipt` as a complete per-run
checkpoint. The charge is `estimated`, its provenance keeps the
rate-card source, and its evidence says "final receipt lost; observed
usage is a lower bound". The estimate is also written to the run's usage
so a later receipt reconciles against it. Zero observed tokens, and
per-model usage, stay unpriced (unknown is never shown as zero, and
aggregate totals never take one model's rate).
- `budget-exposure.ts`:
- The pending/recovering accounting hold excludes the run being admitted
and earlier runs of the same task (same `native_issue_id`). A task's
continuation and finalization can therefore settle its own accounting.
Other tasks stay held, and those runs still count as spend.
- The blocking unpriced-usage policy no longer counts these unpriced
charges: the settled final charge of a lost receipt (restart-derived,
any usage; later growth still counts), a charge with a known partial
cost, and metered API or subscription billing with no observed tokens.
Unknown billing with no tokens (for example Cursor Cloud) and
complete-receipt usage that has no price still block.
- `budgets.ts` / `budget-reservations.ts`: admission accepts the
admitted `runId` and passes it to the exposure read. `reserveRunBudget`,
the final dispatch recheck and the read-only admitted recheck all supply
it, so a continuation that reserves can also dispatch.
- Daytona wave s12 (run f1d98917, a blocked remote recovery with a
0-cent held reservation and every lease destroyed) is closed by #19606.
A Retry for that same task passes the hold through the same-task
exclusion here.

## Verification

- `closed-native-receipt-accounting.test.ts` (embedded Postgres):
- Lost Codex (gpt-6.1-sol) and Claude (claude-sonnet-5) receipts with
observed tokens settle as `estimated` rate-card charges with the
lower-bound evidence. The company stays active and admission is clear
under the blocking policy.
- A lost receipt for a model with no rate card stays unpriced but opens
no incident and no pause.
- A task's continuation reserves budget past its own recovering
accounting, while another task's run is still held.
- Unpriced charges with no tokens on metered billing, or with a known
partial cost, do not hard-stop.
  - Complete-receipt usage with no price still blocks.
  - The six new cases fail on master and pass with this change.
- Existing budget and accounting suites pass locally:
budget-enforcement-scoping, budgets-service, heartbeat-cost-accounting,
run-cost-accounting, native-stop-accounting, cost-data-quality,
budget-live-attempts, budget-live-usage. Server typecheck passes.

## Risks

- A lost receipt's estimate is a lower bound. The provenance says so,
and a later complete receipt still reconciles.
- Restart-derived unpriced charges no longer trip the blocking policy.
Usage lost with a killed provider is not counted against that policy,
which is consistent with budget enforcement being best effort.
Unknown-billing and complete-receipt unpriced usage still block.
- The same-task exemption relies on `native_issue_id`. Legacy runs
without it keep the old behavior.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, via Claude Code with
tool use (shell, file editing, embedded Postgres tests).

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 785ead5c7a fix(tasks): hold a Retry while the task's own native session close is retained (#19609)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - When a native provider session close fails, the runner keeps a
cleanup owner or quarantine in process memory. Its admission gate
refuses new sessions for that task (scoped to the task since #19532)
> - The server could not see that state. A task's Retry was accepted
(202), its run was dispatched, and the runner refused it at once with
`native_session_cleanup_quarantined: prior session cleanup remains
incomplete`
> - The user saw a Retry that failed instantly, and nothing said what to
do
> - This pull request lets the server read the runner's per-task cleanup
gate and hold the Retry with a clear reason. The Retry starts
automatically when the close is released
> - The benefit is that a Retry is never dispatched only to fail on a
block that is already known

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
After two hard restarts, a Codex run's close stayed incomplete. The
board Retry for that task was accepted, and its run failed in about 1 s
with `native_session_cleanup_quarantined: prior session cleanup remains
incomplete`. The next Retry did the same.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Let a native session close fail or stay pending for a task.
2. Press Retry on that task.

**Expected behavior**
The Retry waits with a clear reason, and starts when the cleanup
finishes. If the cleanup needs an operator, Retry is not offered and the
one working action is shown.

**Actual behavior**
The Retry is accepted and its run fails at once.

## What Changed

- `native-session-runtime.ts`:
- New `nativeSessionCleanupBlock({ companyId, issueId })`. It is a
read-only view of the in-process admission gate for one task: `pending`
(a retained close or a bounded automatic close recovery still owns the
task's provider resources), `operator_required`, or `null`. It grants no
authority.
- New `onNativeSessionCleanupSettled(listener)`. It is called whenever a
cleanup owner or quarantine entry is released.
- `explicit-native-continuation.ts` (the continuation gate for a Retry
or a new message):
- `pending`: the input is held with `local_cleanup` ("Retry is waiting
for the previous execution to finish cleanup. Your message is saved.").
It starts automatically when the close is released.
- `operator_required`: handled exactly like a recorded
`native_session_cleanup_quarantined` run. Retry is not offered. A new
message runs the existing stopped-process proof
(`verifyStoppedNativeSessionForContinuation`), which retires the runner
quarantine when the old processes are proven stopped.
- `native-cleanup-release-wake.ts` (registered in
`server/src/index.ts`): each cleanup release wakes deferred execution
for the company in a transaction, so a held Retry re-evaluates.
- `server/src/vendor/paperclip-runner/index.ts`: exports the two runtime
functions.

## Verification

- Red before the gate (server change stashed): `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/services/quarantined-task-retry.test.ts -t "holds a Retry"`
dispatched a successor run while the task's close was retained
(`expected [ { … } ] to have a length of +0 but got 1`).
- Green after the gate:
- The Retry is held (`deferred_issue_execution`, `executionWait.reason =
local_cleanup`), and no successor is dispatched.
  - A different task is not blocked.
- When the close settles, the release is announced, and the next pass
dispatches exactly one successor.
- The whole `quarantined-task-retry.test.ts` file passes (28 tests).
`src/native-session-runtime.test.ts` passes. Server `tsc --noEmit`
passes after the runner package build.
- Live chaos replays: results are added in a comment.

## Risks

- The gate reads process memory, so it applies only where the server and
the runner session share a process (local runner). Other deployments
keep today's behavior.
- A held Retry re-evaluates on the release wake (sent in its own
transaction) or on the existing 30 s deferred-execution pass. When the
bounded automatic close budget is spent with nothing else scheduled, the
view reports `operator_required`. Retry is then no longer offered, and a
new message reaches the stopped-process recovery instead of waiting
forever.
- No schema or API shape changes.

execution in Claude Code.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 29e05f7e06 fix(heartbeat): sweep orphaned run scratch directories (#19671)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Each heartbeat run gets a scratch directory in the system temp
folder
> - Each process attempt makes a new directory with a marker file
> - Cleanup removes only the directory of the current attempt
> - A restart kills the old attempt, so its directory stays forever
> - One restart storm left 83 directories across 78 runs
> - This pull request sweeps those directories when the run ends and at
startup recovery
> - The benefit is that temp space no longer fills with leftover
directories

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Run scratch directories made before a restart are never removed. A
restart storm left 83 `paperclip-run-*` directories across 78 runs. Each
holds only `.paperclip-run-scratch.json`.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a run that makes a scratch directory.
2. Kill the server process and start it again.
3. Let the run finish.
4. List `$TMPDIR/paperclip-run-*`. The old directory is still there.

**Expected behavior**

The old directory is removed after the run ends, or at startup.

## What Changed

- Add `sweepOrphanedRunScratch` in `server/src/services/run-scratch.ts`.
- The sweep removes a directory only if it has a valid regular-file
marker and its run is terminal in this instance database. It keeps a
directory whose run it cannot see, because another instance can share
the temp root.
- The sweep keeps active runs, unmarked directories, symlinks, and
directories outside `paperclip-run-*`.
- The sweep checks each directory again before removal and bounds the
scan (500, with a rotating start so kept entries do not starve later
ones) and removals (100). A per-run sweep filters by directory name
first. Marker run ids that are not UUIDs never reach the database query.
- Call the sweep after the current attempt's cleanup in `heartbeat.ts`,
for that run only.
- Call the sweep in `reapOrphanedRuns` (startup recovery) with run
status from the database.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/services/run-scratch.test.ts`
- New tests cover: leftover directories of a terminal run are removed,
an active run is kept, an unmarked directory is kept, a symlink is not
followed, and removals are bounded.

## Risks

- Low risk. The sweep acts only on marked directories of terminal runs.
- A directory left by a previous attempt could hold a live grandchild
process. The sweep does not check old process groups. The run is already
terminal.

- Claude, claude-opus-4-5 class model via Claude Code, with tool use and
code execution.

Nicky LeachandClaude Opus 5.5 0b73c805e8 feat(environments): fill an unset instance default with a managed plugin environment (#19551)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A managed instance gets its instance-level environments from the
`PAPERCLIP_MANAGED_CONFIG` document, which can declare plugin
environments next to the managed sandbox
> - A platform that runs managed instances wants a new instance to start
with one of those plugin environments as its default, without changing
the default of any instance that already has one
> - #19632 made boot fill the instance default only when it is unset,
local or deleted, in one locked transaction, and removed the revert, so
every existing managed instance keeps a set default
> - This pull request adds an `instanceDefault` flag to a plugin entry.
That entry fills an unset default through the same locked fill, before
the managed sandbox does
> - The fill follows the same readiness rule as an admin's default
write, so it never moves ready agents onto a plugin that has not
prepared them
> - The platform also needs a way to know whether a release understands
plugin entries, so the release now ships a small capabilities file
> - The benefit: new instances get the plugin environment as their
default, and existing instances and admin choices are never changed

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19632 (the locked fill-if-unset rule this builds on), #19508
(plugin entries in the managed config)

**Subsystem affected**
Server environments: the managed config parser and the managed
environment bootstrap.

**Problem or motivation**
The managed config can declare plugin environments, but it can't make
one the instance default on a new instance. An external platform also
has no way to tell whether a given release supports plugin entries
before it sends one.

**Proposed solution**
- Add `instanceDefault: true` to at most one plugin entry. Right after
that entry's boot ensure succeeds, it fills the instance default through
`fillUnsetInstanceDefault`. The managed sandbox fill runs after it.
- On a new instance the plugin environment wins. On an existing instance
the default is already set, so neither fill changes it.
- The fill declines while an active agent that follows the default
hasn't been prepared by that plugin. This is the rule the
instance-settings route enforces. When the plugin fill declines, the
managed sandbox fills as usual.
- Ship `server/src/services/managed-config-capabilities.json`, which
lists `pluginEnvironments`.

**Alternatives considered**
- A recorded one-time decision with a retry worker. It needed pending
states and extra checks for many writer and trigger combinations.
Filling only an unset default, under the existing lock, needs none of
that.
- Rejecting the fill whenever agents exist. That is stricter than the
admin route and blocks harmless cases, such as agents that are paused or
already prepared.

**Roadmap alignment**
This extends existing managed-environment behaviour. It adds no UI.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/managed-config.ts`:
- `ManagedPluginEnvironmentSpec.instanceDefault` (boolean, default
`false`).
- The parser refuses `instanceDefault` on more than one plugin entry, on
the sandbox entry (even `false`), or as a non-boolean.
- `MANAGED_CONFIG_CAPABILITIES` and
`MANAGED_CONFIG_CAPABILITIES_SCHEMA_VERSION` constants. A plugin entry
is refused unless `pluginEnvironments` is listed.
- `server/src/services/managed-config-capabilities.json`: `{
"schemaVersion": 1, "capabilities": ["pluginEnvironments"] }`. A test
pins it to the constants and to this literal contract.
- `server/src/services/managed-environments.ts`:
- New `fillPluginInstanceDefault`. It runs right after a successful boot
ensure of the flagged entry and logs a fill or a decline. Recovery after
boot never fills.
  - The managed sandbox fill now runs once, after the plugin entries.
- `server/src/services/managed-instance-default.ts`:
`fillUnsetInstanceDefault` runs `agentsNeedSetupForEnvironmentChange`
inside its locked transaction and returns `declined:
"agents_need_setup"`. A sandbox target never needs agent setup, so the
managed sandbox fill behaves as before.
- `server/src/services/plugin-environment-driver.ts`: the readiness
query is factored into `agentsNeedSetupForEnvironmentChange`.
`assertAgentsReadyForEnvironmentChange` wraps it and still throws the
same conflict.
- `doc/DEVELOPING.md`: documents `instanceDefault`, the fill order, the
readiness decline, and the capabilities file.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/managed-plugin-environments.test.ts` (embedded Postgres),
under `instanceDefault (fill only an unset default)`:
  - A new instance gets the plugin row as its default.
  - An existing sandbox default is kept, and so is an admin's choice.
- If the plugin was down at the first boot and the sandbox filled, a
later recovery and boot keep the sandbox default.
- An admin-cleared or local default is declined while a ready or
verifying agent follows the default without the plugin's setup. The
managed sandbox then fills it.
- It fills when the agents that follow the default are paused or already
prepared, or are pinned to another environment.
  - Without the flag, nothing happens.
- A new agent that follows the default gets the plugin in
`requiredPluginIds`.
- `npx vitest run src/__tests__/managed-instance-default.test.ts`
(embedded Postgres): the earlier fill, lock and overlap cases pass. A
sandbox fill also succeeds while active agents follow the default.
- `npx vitest run
src/services/managed-environments-plugin-entries.test.ts`:
  - The fill order is plugin then sandbox.
  - When the plugin is down there is no fill, and recovery never fills.
- A failed ensure gives only the sandbox fill, and a failed fill keeps
the ensure counted.
  - When the plugin fill declines, the sandbox still fills.
- `npx vitest run src/__tests__/managed-config.test.ts
src/services/managed-config-capabilities.test.ts`: parser refusals and
the capabilities contract.
- `npx vitest run src/services/managed-environments.test.ts
src/__tests__/instance-settings-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/environment-routes.test.ts`: pass. The route still throws
the same readiness conflict.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` passes.
- I did not run the full `pnpm test:run`, `pnpm -r typecheck` or `pnpm
build`. CI covers them.

## Risks

- An instance whose default is unset at the first boot after this
release gets the plugin environment, if its agents are ready for it.
That covers a new instance, and an instance whose admin cleared the
default or chose the local environment. This is the intended behaviour.
- The readiness check doesn't lock agent rows. If an agent becomes ready
during the boot fill, it can miss the check, which is the same race the
admin route has. Agents created after the fill are prepared for the
plugin, because setup reads the current default.
- If the plugin is down at a new instance's first boot, the instance
keeps the managed sandbox default from then on.
- No schema change.
