DottaandPaperclip b7f1c3769c feat(native): record verified provider-pack session admission (#18469)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Remote native sessions can use an installed pack or a retained
earlier pack.
> - The current app revision does not identify the pack that a session
admitted.
> - Core already verifies the selected pack and binds its launch
artifacts.
> - Normal run records lack a closed receipt for that admitted
selection.
> - This pull request records that receipt after session admission and
attachment.
> - Operators can compare the actual Core admission identity with their
expected pack.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17749 for protected provider-pack selection and #18343 for
retained controller recovery. The related OpenCode producer repair is
#18456. Those changes do not publish the closed run receipt added here.
A search found no existing `nativeProviderPackAdmission` PR.

**What happened?**

Core can admit a compatible installed provider pack with a source
revision that differs from the current app. A retained session can also
keep its original pack. The normal run record does not show the admitted
pack digest, proxy digest, and source revision. An expected launch path
or current app revision cannot fill that evidence gap.

**Expected behavior**

The run has a closed, server-owned receipt after actual session
admission and attachment. The first receipt remains immutable history. A
separate current-proof state verifies only the actual current admission
epoch. Retained recovery needs positive original provenance, and missing
legacy evidence stays unknown.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Select and verify an installed pack whose digest differs from the
current app pack.
2. Open the native session successfully.
3. Inspect the normal run profile for a bound admission receipt.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The original selected base was
`8bcc5a01edd5d87540401521e6f30d3df43e1848`. The branch now includes
exact actual prerequisite parent
`3ee4c5b6138da82d0b1f51aa010540561bf43c22`; the PR diff against it is
the five receipt, executor, test and documentation files.

**Deployment mode**

Core remote native execution with provider-pack selection and retained
session attachment.

## What Changed

- Retain the verified selected pack identity only after a backend
returns the matching admitted session.
- Publish `runnerProfileJson.nativeProviderPackAdmission` from the
session callback after attachment succeeds.
- Mark the receipt with `stage: session_admitted` and `authority:
core_verified_selection`.
- Store bound company, agent, run, session, runner, logical
`runnerEnvironmentLeaseId`, pack digest, OpenCode proxy digest, and
source revision fields. Retained attachments identify
`inheritedFromRunId`. The logical Runner scope is distinct from the
physical environment lease.
- Lock the current coordinator claim before the profile write. Check
owner, attempt, generation, controller boot, lease expiry, phase, and
absence of an accepted result. Merge JSON fields without replacing other
profile data.
- Restore retained metadata only from the exact prior closed Core
receipt, positively verified prior state and matching retained binding.
Capture same-run prior provenance from the locked claim row before
invalidation; cross-run recovery reads only the exact source. Legacy
absence remains unknown while recovery continues.
- Preserve the first receipt as history. Atomically mark a new opaque
admission epoch pending in the existing mandatory claim transaction.
Publish current verification only for the matching claim and epoch after
actual attachment; changed or unsupported admission becomes unknown
without blocking authorized execution.
- Preserve synchronous session publication and quarantine ordering
before the best-effort receipt write. Fresh replacement selects its
newly verified pack; a captured retained-process flag cannot relabel the
replacement with an older pack. Preserve the existing private pack
authority even when a local dirty revision is ineligible for the closed
receipt.
- Add focused admission, recovery, identity, PostgreSQL ownership, lock,
and JSON-preservation tests. Document the receipt contract.

## Verification

- RED: the actual managed-backend path verified and admitted an
installed pack but had no closed metadata. Failed open published no
evidence. Additional controls fail when retained recovery invents
missing history or dirty-revision eligibility gates the existing private
authority.
- RED calibration: removing mandatory pending invalidation fails the
actual pre-admission control; reusing the retained flag for fresh
replacement falsely restores the old pack. Removing the epoch fence
fails the real PostgreSQL stale-callback case; reintroducing a
receipt-specific execution error fails both authorized
Runner/logical-lease replacement controls.
- GREEN: 49 focused Core tests, all 33 admission identity/transaction
tests (20 pure and 13 PostgreSQL), and all 23 existing private-authority
tests passed on exact integrated head
`165a9096cf3e0d34d2db1e6b52960ad4ac0ad132`. No all-skipped run is
counted.
- Final test-only head `11ac34baf00552a5d322b5f5f1a8e491859cacec` adds
the positive executor-callback SQL-writer wiring control, exact
session/identity/claim/epoch assertions, profile preservation, and
null-session zero-write check. Removing only the production writer call
makes it fail on a missing receipt. All70 focused identity/Core tests
pass with this closure; production code, the13 PostgreSQL tests and
the23 private-authority tests are byte-identical to the qualified165
source (106 distinct passing controls across the combined proof).
- The PostgreSQL tests used an owned loopback-only cached Postgres 17
container with the supported `PAPERCLIP_TEST_POSTGRES_ADMIN_URL` helper
and aliases to current DB/shared source. The container was removed
afterward. They cover immutable history, JSON preservation, stale claims
and epochs, expired leases, terminal runs, changed/unsupported
replacements, and a failed write retaining pending proof.
- Historical pushed `f7f12fe` CI executed all 24 earlier admission
tests, including nine PostgreSQL cases, in server5. Its warm-quarantine
failure exposed the new hook-ordering issue fixed here. The same run
also encountered a six-character UUID fixture-prefix collision and the
independently repaired cached issue-link browser selector; those
historical failures are not claimed as green.
- Node 24.22.2 and Vitest 5.0.3. The credential-free normal QA runtime
import preflight passes with networking disabled. Map contracts, token
gates and `git diff --check` pass.
- Local TypeScript validation still sees stale borrowed Runner/shared
declaration mismatches outside the changed ranges. No diagnostics remain
in the new helper or changed test/hook ranges; clean current-head CI is
required.
- Repository-wide typecheck, full tests and build were not completed
locally. A full local executor attempt reached this host's unsupported
native PostgreSQL listener and was interrupted; its result is not
counted. Canonical run `41214512239`, attempt 2, is successful on exact
final head `11ac34baf00552a5d322b5f5f1a8e491859cacec`. All 59 checks are
terminal: 55 success, 3 skipped and 1 neutral; none failed or pending.
The actual Linux suites execute all 33 admission tests (including 13
PostgreSQL cases) and all 1,022 executor tests successfully. The
[original five failures and bounded unchanged-source
controls](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/18469#issuecomment-6545593767)
remain preserved. One failed-only request was made; GitHub expanded the
reusable workflow call and dependents. No second request was made. Fresh
exact-head Greptile review is 5/5, all review threads are resolved, and
the PR is mergeable.
- These local results claim no live provider admission, rollout or
recovery.

## Risks

- The authority is Core's verified selection plus successful session
admission. It is not an independent provider statement or continuous
runtime measurement.
- Receipt fields cannot grant execution or replace the existing
provider, process, lease, workspace, or recovery checks.
- Legacy missing receipts and unavailable database reads remain unknown.
The current release cannot label an older admitted pack.
- The closed receipt requires a clean, 40-character hexadecimal source
revision. Verified local `-dirty` packs still execute and retain their
existing private recovery authority; their closed admission proof stays
`unknown`, so it cannot certify an immutable source revision.
- The first receipt is historical. Consumers must require current state
`verified`; pending or unknown cannot certify the current pack. Changed
Runner scope or pack evidence does not add execution policy.
- A receipt save failure leaves the atomically invalidated state
pending. The existing artifact authority, cancellation, workspace and
process checks remain responsible for execution safety.
- The receipt adds no manifest, environment, credential, or filesystem
path to the run record.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, code editing, and tool
use. The session does not expose an exact model build ID or
context-window capacity.

Dotta 12b0cc6304 fix(chat): recover committed native Agent Chat replies (#18465)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agent work and keeps its results available to
users.
> - Agent Chat needs a visible reply before the conversation can wait
for more input.
> - Native result commitment and reply presentation are separate
obligations.
> - A completed conversation can retain a valid final message without a
saved reply.
> - Existing reply recovery excludes these completed conversation turns.
> - This pull request repairs that persistence gap through the existing
recovery worker.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A native Agent Chat turn completed successfully and saved its workspace.
Its accepted result and final assistant message were durable, but no
reply appeared in the conversation. The chat stayed active. The
deployment hiring journey in #18351 then reached its deadline while
waiting for the first reply.

**Expected behavior**

Recover the exact accepted turn's final reply once, then use normal
conversation settlement. Keep later user input active. Do not run the
agent again or replace a selected or deleted reply.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create an active conversation with one admitted native turn.
2. Commit an accepted DONE result and a final-channel assistant message
for that exact run, session and turn.
3. Finish workspace finalization before live heartbeat reply
presentation. Leave no saved reply.
4. Run normal response recovery. Before this fix it finds no
conversation candidate and leaves the chat active.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced with actual services at frozen master
`8bcc5a01edd5d87540401521e6f30d3df43e1848`. The production predicate
also exists in the deployed revision that exposed the failure.

Related work: #18351. The broader receipt and recovery work in #18118
and #18409 does not touch these source files.

## What Changed

- Discover unanswered committed Agent Chat turns through the existing
native response presentation worker.
- Recheck company, agent, responsible user, current execution and
conversation generation under the normal transaction locks.
- Require the accepted result digest and an exact final message from the
same native run, session and accepted turn. Keep external publication
authority separate.
- Commit the reply and presentation receipt before normal conversation
settlement. Later input stays active. Recovery does not repeat agent
work.
- Preserve skip decisions and selected or deleted replies. Add database
controls for foreign identity, stale sessions, partial commitment,
duplicates and ordinary internal task behavior.
- Document the recovery boundary in the developer guide.

## Verification

- Real-service RED/GREEN uses all 418 canonical migrations in isolated
PGlite and the exact new regression fixture. Before the fix: zero
candidates, no reply, recovery returns false and the chat stays active.
After the fix: one candidate, one exact reply, recovery returns true and
the chat waits. A repeat returns false and creates no second reply.
- All 20 canonical regression cases pass locally through a fixture-only
PGlite bridge. Only local database provisioning and `createDb` selection
differ from the normal embedded PostgreSQL fixture. Production services,
SQL queries, transactions, protocol validation and assertions remain
real. Linux embedded PostgreSQL CI is required before merge.
- Focused current-source no-emit typing passes for both production
modules and the new regression file, with normal Express augmentation
and source aliases. The broader local presentation/ownership and
conversation-settlement PGlite bridge run was interrupted before it
reported results; it is not counted as a pass. No repository-wide local
build is claimed from borrowed workspace dependencies. Clean-build CI
and canonical PostgreSQL consumer tests remain required.
- `git diff --check` and the scoped source/test secret scan pass. No
captured run data, credentials or private target identities are
committed.
- No live journey retry, deployment, configuration change or test-plan
admission was performed. The original failed journey remains failed;
this production fix still needs deployed qualification through the
unchanged journey.

- Current-head [canonical Linux
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41207018345)
passed all 57 terminal checks with no failure or pending check. The new
20-case database regression actually passed in [server shard
8](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41207018345/job/124555006090),
at 13:59:25 UTC (2,643 ms). Typecheck, build and the existing consumer
lanes passed. Fresh [Greptile
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/18465#issuecomment-6544208002)
on exact `f32a432e10b377ae6277d6f728995d5fedcf9d7b` is 5/5; the
review-thread inventory is empty with no pagination. No live deployment
or journey pass is claimed by these checks.

## Risks

Eligible active conversations can gain a previously missing reply.
Recovery accepts only the exact saved final message under its accepted
result and current conversation identity. It does not run a model,
repeat hiring or change a prior test grade. Reply persistence precedes
waiting-state settlement; existing conversation recovery retains
ownership of a later interrupted settlement. No schema or public API
changes are included.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family. The session does not expose a more specific
backend model ID or fixed context window. Used reasoning, repository
tools, TypeScript and real database test execution.

DottaandPaperclip 12d8c3043e fix(native): fence retries when replaying an audited Stop (#18457)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native runs keep Stop intent and retry state in durable records.
> - A provider error can leave a failed retry with an earlier
acknowledged Stop.
> - The replay path returned the existing receipt before it closed that
retry.
> - This pull request applies the existing retry fence to the validated
replay.
> - The same Stop can settle without another provider cancellation or a
new receipt.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14733 for the related caller-bound Stop contract. This change
covers a later retry that already has a Stop acknowledgement. The older
CI-only #14743 is not a production delivery PR.

**What happened?**

A failed native run can have a retryable coordinator and an earlier
audited Stop. A repeat Stop returns the old acknowledgement without
moving the coordinator to `terminal_failure`. The final
failed-to-cancelled transition requires that fence, so the Stop cannot
settle through that path.

**Expected behavior**

A valid replay closes the same retry and keeps the original intent and
acknowledgement. It does not send a second provider cancellation.
Physical stop and workspace cleanup still require their own evidence.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Store a failed native run with a `retryable_failure` coordinator.
2. Store a matching run-scoped Stop with a dispatched acknowledgement
and audit IDs.
3. Call `cancelNativeSession` for that same run and inspect the
coordinator.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on public master `f2db909393de124caf6a5380a52d4e0e1d621661`.

**Deployment mode**

Core native execution. The regression uses the real cancellation
executor with controlled persistence and provider boundaries.

## What Changed

- Reuse the existing guarded coordinator fence for a validated Stop
replay.
- Test repeated replay, unchanged receipts, one fence, and no second
provider cancellation.
- Reject foreign company, run, issue, scope, effect, and missing-audit
receipts before any write.
- Check that an acknowledged Stop with an unconfirmed remote lease still
fails the physical-stop guard.
- Document the separate retry fence and physical-cleanup requirements.

## Verification

- RED on the selected public base: the new executor case returned
success but left the coordinator in `retryable_failure` with a future
retry. One case executed and failed for that assertion.
- GREEN: 62 focused tests passed across
`native-session-executor.test.ts` and
`native-cancellation-request.test.ts`. These include ownership, caller
conflict, changed-phase, and receipt controls.
- Command from `server/`: `node ../node_modules/vitest/vitest.mjs run
src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/native-cancellation-request.test.ts -t
'native session cancellation|caller-bound native cancellation|failed
native retry caller admission'`.
- Canonical Linux CI passed all 1,018 executor cases and all 32
caller-cancellation cases. The exact file completion lines are in
[server shard
2](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41203989386/job/124545366271)
and [server shard
10](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41203989386/job/124545366219).
- Node 24.22.2 and Vitest 5.0.3. Map contract checks and `git diff
--check` pass.
- Local dependencies are linked from an existing checkout. Full local
TypeScript validation reports older Runner/shared declarations that lack
current Kimi and continuity APIs. The changed ranges have no
diagnostics. The canonical clean CI Typecheck + Release Registry gate
passed.
- A broader two-file run was stopped when an unchanged integration case
tried to start embedded Postgres and hit the host listen restriction. It
is not a passing full-suite result. No host settings or other services
were changed.
- Repository-wide `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm test:run`, and `pnpm build`
were not completed locally. Current-head CI passed against clean source
and dependencies.
- Fresh [Greptile
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/18457#issuecomment-6543772487)
on `dbc1c1a5b71450194d568725592969660864cb5a`: 5/5 with no actionable
findings. The review-thread inventory has no threads and no pagination.
Full [current-head
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41203989386)
passed: 59 terminal checks, 55 successful, 3 skipped, and 1 neutral. No
failure or pending check remains. Merge status is CLEAN. No live
recovery, rollout, or physical termination is claimed.

## Risks

- A wrong or stale Stop must not close another retry. Existing
run/coordinator locks, caller checks, receipt binding, and the final
compare-and-set remain in place.
- This fix changes logical retry settlement only. Provider termination,
workspace preservation, lease cleanup, and continuation gates remain
separate.
- The regression controls persistence and provider boundaries. It does
not establish the physical state of a remote provider.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, code editing, and tool
use. The session does not expose an exact model build ID or
context-window capacity.

DottaandPaperclip c2971badde perf(server): recover independent native replies concurrently (#18421)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages work for AI agents.
> - A native run can commit its result before its reply is saved.
> - The response recovery worker saves replies from those committed
results.
> - It checks each candidate in series, so one task can delay unrelated
tasks.
> - This pull request checks up to four independent tasks at once.
> - Each task keeps serial checks, and the existing coordinator owns
retries and shutdown.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Recovery of committed native task replies.

**Current behavior**

The worker checks one candidate at a time in a batch of up to 25. A
database lock or a slow read for one task delays replies for other
tasks.

**Proposed behavior**

Check up to four company-and-task groups at once. Check candidates
within each group in their existing order. Keep the current batch limit
and company selection.

**Reason and benefit**

A ready task reply can be saved while another task waits for a database
lock. The change reduces waiting under a reply backlog.

**Breaking changes**

Replies for different tasks can be saved in a different order. There are
no API or schema changes. Other deadline workers keep serial dispatch.

Related work: #17696 adds the recovery worker. #17501 reduces its read
payloads. #18367 adds its timing spans. These changes are already
merged. The PR search found no open change that adds this concurrency.

## What Changed

- Add optional keyed concurrency to the shared scoped deadline worker.
- Enable a limit of four for native response recovery, keyed by company
and task.
- Await all active checks before the pass ends. Retain per-candidate
failure backoff, drain behavior and pending work.
- Test concurrency limits, task order, company separation, drain/resume,
shutdown, retries and idle wake behavior.
- Add a PostgreSQL regression that holds one task's finalization row
lock while a second task saves its exact accepted reply.
- Document the worker's concurrency and sleep contract.

## Verification

- The PostgreSQL lock regression fails with serial dispatch. It passes
with this change. Both accepted replies are saved once after the lock is
released.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/scoped-deadline-work.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/delivery-work-coordinator.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-work-batch.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/deadline-work.test.ts
server/src/services/execution-preparation-timing.test.ts` — 55 tests
pass.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/services/presentation-ownership-read.test.ts` with its
documented dedicated PostgreSQL URL — 21 tests pass. The disposable
database was dropped.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` — passes.
- `pnpm build` — passes.
- One matched local replay with 25 older pending replies and one fresh
reply used the real worker, a 10-connection PostgreSQL pool and 8 ms
delay in each network direction. The saved fresh reply was first
observed after 29.193 s with serial dispatch and 9.798 s with this
change. All 26 replies were saved exactly once in both runs, with no
worker errors. Both disposable databases were dropped. This is one
synthetic workload pair, not a staging measurement.
- `pnpm test:run` was attempted. Embedded PostgreSQL could not
initialize its template after five attempts, so the broad run was
stopped. The changed PostgreSQL tests pass on the separate local server.
Remote CI is green. This PR does not claim a measured staging speedup.

- The [first CI browser
shard](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41162257463/job/124422204506)
failed during company cleanup after its task assertions and empty-run
check passed. Company deletion hit the
`activity_log_company_id_companies_id_fk` constraint. The fixture uses
paused process agents and reported no runs. The one failed-jobs rerun
passed all 45 browser tests. All CI checks are now green.

## Risks

- Four checks can use more database connections than serial recovery.
The limit applies to this queue only; the batch limit stays at 25.
- The shared helper has more dispatch logic. Its default remains serial.
Tests cover task order, retry deadlines, drain and waiting for active
checks during shutdown.
- This improves reply recovery under backlog or lock contention. It does
not establish a target for total agent-turn latency.

execution. This session does not expose a more specific model ID or

DottaandPaperclip 492d537340 fix(native): recover controllers across webserver replacement (#18343)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Native execution runs in a remote Runner while the webserver owns
its controller.
> - Encrypted PRP checkpoints and session snapshots already survive a
webserver restart in Postgres.
> - Ordinary warm and per-turn admission still needs local markers and
supervisor metadata to find that state.
> - Replacing the webserver with an empty native controller directory
can therefore lose a usable retained session.
> - This change adds bounded recovery metadata to the existing snapshot
transaction and reconstructs local projections from the selected durable
source.
> - The benefit is native execution continuity across webserver
replacement, with the existing ownership and agent lifecycle policies.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Native remote controller recovery and retained-session continuation
during a webserver upgrade.

**Subsystem affected**

server/ — native runtime, checkpoint persistence, recovery scheduling
and internal upgrade reporting. Product E2E qualification also changes.

**Current behavior**

Without both the local PRP marker and supervisor file, normal
continuation can return before discovering the saved Postgres
checkpoint. The snapshot already exists in Postgres, but its local reuse
compatibility envelope cannot be reconstructed.

**Proposed behavior**

Select the existing durable source, validate its identity and ownership,
restore its PRP state and supervisor projection, then use normal
authenticated admission. Missing or inconsistent evidence holds
recovery. It does not authorize fresh provider work.

**Reason and benefit**

A replacement webserver must recover active execution and later continue
its retained session without the old server's native files. This is one
component of deployment continuity. HTTP traffic switching, workspace
storage migration and Railway rollout remain separate.

**Breaking changes**

No new public endpoint, schema migration or database pool. The private
run-profile envelope is additive. Disk-independent rollback also
requires a reader for the staged controller format and compact
checkpoint part; the first production release containing these readers
is the floor. Older file-backed sessions need an owner checkpoint or the
bounded internal importer.

**Additional context**

Related foundations: #17401, #17916, #17254, #14621, #14622. The
implementation contract and open acceptance gates are in [the dated
plan](doc/plans/2026-10-30-native-controller-checkpoints.md).

## What Changed

- Persist a versioned recovery envelope, at most 4 KiB, beside the
redacted session snapshot in its existing transaction. Keep it out of
public run projections.
- Compare frozen admission separately from prepared attachment
instructions during staged recovery, preserving exact
template/identity/authority checks.
- Bound the existing lazy checkpoint pool at three connections after
measured two-slot burst backlog; keep request/renewal capacities and SQL
operation counts unchanged. The tuning is a separate commit.
- Discover and restore the exact selected retained source without local
native markers. Preserve the 32-candidate window, progress barriers and
current authority checks.
- Fence snapshot and result writes. Acquire coordinator, issue and run
locks in order and check expiry after lock waits. Combine snapshot
ownership/read work into one statement.
- Reuse existing recovery deadlines and drain/resume scheduling.
Retained-owner waits preserve the original unstarted run and actual
lease deadline. Stop, ownership and provider-progress fences precede
deferral. Add bounded native evidence reporting, retained-source import
and retention protection.
- Admit a settled warm source with an authenticated idle goal-read
suffix while retaining active-work and mixed-authority holds.
- Permit lifecycle `turn.stop` checkpoints after accepted results under
existing ownership fences. Claim the existing successor coordinator
before retiring the old warm session, and stage shared attachments only
after verified retirement. Preserve omitted isolated-home defaults and
existing fresh skill-selection order during recovery without hiding real
configuration changes.
- Carry the exact durable six-field PRP binding during active recovery
after a healthy warm handoff. Keep the Runner mismatch guard and
preserve opaque attachment IDs.
- Preserve an already verified active or idle warm process during remote
preparation; revalidate its proof/liveness and retain later
authenticated PRP attachment. Ordinary resumed leases retain suspension
checks.
- Drain retained source events under their original authority, reconcile
immutable source accounting and block unknown source tool dispatch
before target work.
- Persist compact staged handoff intent through authenticated adoption
and recover direct/listener command-loss windows without another Runner
or duplicate attachment.
- Rebuild suspended lifecycle receipts for resumed prepared tasks, and
retry missing lifecycle reads after partial PRP materialization without
overwriting contradictory evidence.
- Add normal warm/per-turn diskless continuation coverage, real Postgres
races and SQL-cost checks. Add a reproducible paired load workload.
- Give only the explicit outage fixture a 15-minute provider idle
window, with a red/green catalog regression preserving all production
timing and lifecycle policies.
- Publish the goal-less task-session pointer in the existing
post-acceptance terminal checkpoint transaction, with current ownership,
accepted-result, reset and newer-progress fences. Keep a private bound
receipt so late completion cannot duplicate or resurrect publication.
- Use a retained warm sandbox in the dedicated continuity fixture, and
accept an exact output token followed by an explanation. Keep the strict
identity oracle.
- Extend the explicit Daytona cell to a five-minute active outage and
another replacement after completion. Require retained provider
identity, a new tool receipt and a useful follow-up result. Add an owned
loopback Postgres E2E fixture for hosts that cannot start embedded
Postgres.

## Verification

**Merge recommendation — `fc68584ce6231a02e47ecd743f55b036ccea034f`:
ready for the qualified native-controller component.** Full CI, fresh
review, local application paths, controlled performance qualification
and the strict live Linux/Daytona case pass. Independent resource
cleanup is complete. Broader rollout, browser reconnection and the
unexecuted transport/platform combinations remain integration gates.
Integrated 484 passed full local recursive typecheck/build and ordinary
active→completion→cache-loss→C component qualification. Fresh review
then found a valid attached-wake failure: preparation appends attachment
instructions before the verifier compares execution to the frozen
admission. 9f4 fixes that by separately checking the pre-preparation
admission and exact prepared execution. Both hashes are captured
privately per admission; the full template, identity, configuration and
authority checks remain. Its regression fails before the fix; 36 focused
cases, 42 staged source/target cases and server typecheck pass
afterward. The review thread is resolved. Exact-head full CI passes
([run
41168228822](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41168228822):
48 successful jobs, one intended skip); the complete `pnpm test:run`
partitions are forced, with the five native suites in the Runner lane.
This is not a claim that an unsharded local command passed. The fresh
exact-head Greptile check succeeds with 5/5 and all six threads
resolved.

The original two-connection database comparison closes **steady PASS and
burst FAIL**. Every relative CPU/WAL/request-p99 gate passes and all
operations/ownership remain correct, but candidate arm 3 drains in
1,015.99 ms and baseline arm 4 in 1,059.67 ms against the unchanged
1,000 ms absolute gate. Those results remain failed. A separate 2→3→4→2
diagnostic reproduces drain times 1,051.57 / 956.79 / 882.02 / 1,065.72
ms: three is the smallest tested passing cap, and the repeated two-cap
failure survives run-order/cache effects.

Separately reviewable `fc68584ce6` changes the existing lazy checkpoint
pool default to three connections. Request capacity stays ten and
liveness two; idle release, shutdown fencing, transaction counts and
pool count are unchanged. Thirteen DB lifecycle/cap tests and DB
typecheck pass. Full recursive typecheck/build pass at exact fc68584,
with the matching server build stamp. The final paired native
feature-cost comparison explicitly uses the **same cap-three policy and
common current DB factory in both variants**; its baseline is
controlled, not the unmodified historical cap-two configuration.
Original gates and workload counts remain unchanged. The one strict
Linux/Daytona case started at 04:40:56 UTC only after both new profiles
passed; it passed on the first attempt with all 49 workflow checks.
Independent cleanup confirms all three owned sandboxes absent, owned
Postgres/controllers/observer gone, VM terminated, root volume absent
and ephemeral SSH key/agent removed.

**Final controlled cap-three qualification: PASS.** Baseline native
implementation `59da15066a` and candidate `fc68584ce6` use the same
current DB factory and checkpoint policy (request/liveness/checkpoint =
10/2/3). Eight 65-second ABBA arms cover 300 controllers and 10,000
historical tasks. All correctness, absolute and 10% relative gates pass;
original cap-two failures remain unchanged.

| Mode | DB CPU µs/op, baseline → candidate | WAL B/op, baseline →
candidate | DB-request p99 ms, baseline → candidate | Maximum drain |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Steady | 542.40 → 554.83 (+2.29%) | 1509.01 → 1558.27 (+3.26%) |
107.11 → 111.90 (+4.48%) | 26.35 ms |
| Burst | 1036.36 → 1063.11 (+2.58%) | 4153.12 → 4317.64 (+3.96%) |
103.736 → 103.841 (+0.10%) | 930.14 ms |

Every matched arm preserves operation/statement/transaction counts,
including 3,900 PRP and 3,900 snapshot transactions. All three actual
pools are included; there are zero lost owners, missed lease deadlines,
dropped operations or errors. Peak Postgres CPU is 18.31%/9.47% of two
cores and memory 614.29/684.42 MiB (steady/burst). The benchmark uses
one Node process simulating 300 controllers; it does not qualify
two-webserver overlap, HTTP latency or hosted capacity. Its observer SQL
contributes to measured database CPU. The original unmodified cap-two
baseline is separately retained as failed; this cap-three comparison is
explicitly controlled.

The exact final-source 8/512/8,192-chunk test also passes: zero recovery
SQL, transactions or changed rows in each text-only interval, zero idle
SQL, seven lifecycle transactions and twelve changed rows per sample.
Existing lease traffic remains separate. The final ordinary managed
application replay passes active recovery, completion, native-cache
removal and C continuation; its UNKNOWN local debug-daemon provenance
and partial instruction-observer limits remain recorded. The live case
uses the attested Linux producer instead.


**Live qualification: PASS, one attempt, no retries.** Campaign
`native-controller-retained-fix-fc68584ce6-ec2-20261031T044055Z` started
04:40:56 UTC on the exact final Linux webserver source; suite definition
hash `12f9bb97823c1537e43f0398e7cddf39890f77bce7b413ca4dfd944f4a30e5d5`.
The existing immutable image and attested Bookworm Runner artifact are
unchanged.

- A was SIGKILLed and its native cache discarded. B started after
300,149 ms, naturally acquired generation 2, authenticated at 316,624 ms
and resumed at 317,682 ms within the original 420,000 ms grace. The same
active run, Runner, provider PID/start fingerprint and one
submitted/started/accepted turn were preserved; one final
result/terminal and workspace finalization completed, with no
retry/recovery action.
- After active and queued completion, B was SIGKILLed and its native
cache discarded again. C received exactly one ordinary task-comment API
follow-up, completed a new tool and produced a useful reply while
preserving native/provider/Runner identities. This closes the earlier
failed post-C gate. A separate C OS-process PID field was not exported;
the physical-PID proof is specifically A→B.
- Four distinct results were accepted and published; all four
finalizations committed at attempt 1, all four accounting-v2 projections
settled, and the task-session pointer advanced to C. The coordinator
independently checked these facts and all 49 canonical checks against
the sanitized receipts.
- Canonical cleanup passed and independent checks confirmed three exact
sandbox 404s plus complete inventory/zero owned remnants, no owned PG or
controller/observer processes, EC2 terminated, root volume absent, and
the ephemeral SSH key/agent removed by 04:54:25 UTC.

Live scope is classic remote Codex warm continuity with non-native
storage dependencies available. Prepared-task completed B→C, full
per-turn application disk loss, browser reconnection, two-server load
and overall Railway/HTTP continuity were not live-qualified here.
Earlier failed campaigns and the original cap-two burst failure remain
failed historical evidence. A report-renderer cache setup failure was
preserved; the normal sanitizer subsequently succeeded with an explicit
cache path and a new output directory, without changing validators.


The repair keeps retained events under their original six-field
authority until persistence and accounting accept them. Unknown semantic
effects stay unresolved. A compact staged target survives source
bootstrap, cached-command delivery and authenticated handoff, including
an uncertain commit response. Direct and same-guest-listener recovery
require the verified original Runner and the exact endpoint. Target
snapshot publication marks readiness in memory, with retirement
coalesced into an existing command write. Headers contain only the
staged descriptor/digest; a prequeue template is written once as a
changed checkpoint part and then recovered from the existing
command/receipt. No second session snapshot transaction, streaming SQL
path, new pool or recurring idle scan is added.

| Current repair gate | Evidence and scope |
| --- | --- |
| Source-tail regression | Real Runner protocol RED reproduced
attachment rejection. Frozen core/transport pass five source-tail cases:
source usage attribution, held persistence/no premature ACK, lost commit
response plus cache loss, unknown semantic hold and accounting rejection
hold. |
| Handoff loss windows | Direct and listener modes pass
queued/prepared/activated/completed boundaries (eight cells), preserving
the actual Runner/provider process. Missing adoption proof and changed
endpoints reject recovery. |
| Compact storage | A 31 KiB attachment grant writes its separate part
once, leaves it unchanged across source snapshots and removes it at
queueing. Headers do not duplicate the grant. |
| Accounting | 21 real-Postgres usage tests and 19 source-binding tests
pass. Recovery hydrates immutable source receipts without resetting
their producer or billing classification; conflicting/incomplete usage
holds. |
| Admission and malformed evidence | Driver 16, staged evidence 42,
restart classifier 27 and source usage 19 focused cases pass. Four
malformed-file regressions pass at d6a7, whose executor is
byte-identical at 484, and server typecheck passes. Full executor file:
990 pass; 16 embedded-Postgres `initdb` setup failures before
assertions, retained separately. |
| Required checks | Exact fc68584 recursive typecheck and build pass
locally, with matching server stamp. Forced full CI succeeds (48 jobs
pass, one intended skip); all PR checks are clean. Maps/token gates pass
for their unchanged source surfaces. Fresh exact-head Greptile is 5/5,
all six threads resolved. |
| Ordinary application path | Exact fc68584 managed component passes
active recovery after natural expiry, completion, native-cache loss and
ordinary C continuation. Production bytes match before/after; temporary
fixtures restored and owned DB/services cleaned. UNKNOWN local
debug-daemon/partial instruction-observer limits remain; the separate
live case uses the attested Linux producer. |
| Producer | Locked Bookworm build from exact 5b7 Rust tree
d03e494217, equal to final fc68584 Rust
source. SHA-256
65b8f8cfdd6099e9ad24f1ca154e8a260777269cc82f6e23c6e6a180c531eaaf;
38,515,328 bytes. Actual Debian 12 execution and live admission pass.
Controller/admission/DB changes do not relabel the producer source. |
| Historical cap-two comparison | Exact 59da baseline vs 5b7 candidate,
300 controllers/10,000 history, ABBA 4×65 s per mode, all three actual
pools and real snapshots. Steady CPU/op 541.36→554.64 µs (+2.45%);
WAL/op 1512.13→1560.99 B (+3.23%); DB-request p99 102.78→105.99 ms
(+3.12%): PASS. Burst CPU/op +4.71%, WAL/op +5.29%, p99 −0.10% pass
relative gates, but absolute drains above fail. Identical operation/SQL
counts, zero lost leases/drops/errors. One Node process simulates 300
controllers; this does not qualify two-webserver overlap or HTTP
capacity. |
| Live acceptance | Strict final-source Linux classic Codex case passes
1/1 on attempt 1, all 49 checks. Active recovery within grace and useful
retained C continuation succeed; four
accepted/published/committed/settled outcomes. Independent provider,
PG/process, VM/root and SSH cleanup complete. Prepared/task and broader
rollout limits are explicit above. |

**Historical qualification snapshot through `9eb9ac6`.** The head at
this snapshot was `9eb9ac6f9e312f3ebe8040f5a7565e88ae8824f3`. Server and
Runner package sources are byte-identical to `283e05ffaa`; the two later
commits change the explicitly scoped qualification and its documentation
only. It includes master through the storage-owner fix
`45a3a92e6dc52d20923b9aa34a22fee2ec5443f9` (#18357). At that snapshot,
CI/review passed but the strict post-C native recovery gate failed; the
PR stayed draft and required another native repair. Prior `39a4343` CI
and review passed, but its full live workflow failed; that grade remains
unchanged. The first repaired `435ccd2` live attempt failed before any
injected outage. It exposed a legitimate terminal snapshot before result
acceptance; no accepted result ID or publication receipt was observed.
Its canonical report remains 0/1 `candidate_failure`, with cleanup
passed and independent provider absence confirmed. `0862062` defers
publication until result acceptance and fixes the fresh review's
coordinator/issue lock-order finding. Both failures have deterministic
real-Postgres regressions. The `0862062` live attempt then proved
accepted-result publication but failed active recovery: a resumed-lease
preparation guard demanded suspension after the exact live Runner was
already verified for adoption. `64c0b746` preserves that verified
active/idle-warm process, revalidates its proof/liveness, and keeps
ordinary suspension checks and later PRP authentication. Its live run
passed preparation but exposed a second active-warm boundary: all
durable binding fields matched except opaque turn/item attachment IDs,
which the server had regenerated. `7a203274` carries the complete
verified six-field binding and keeps the strict Runner mismatch guard.
Its cloud case then passed active adoption, completion, publication and
accounting. The queued continuation exposed accepted-result retirement
writes and an implicit-home fingerprint drift; both are fixed with
deterministic regressions in `39a4343` before this fresh full
qualification.

The prior live case exposed a real publication gap. A goal-less native
turn could persist its accepted result and terminal snapshot before
provider cleanup, while the task-session pointer was still empty. Normal
later admission then selected a fresh session. The fix publishes that
pointer and a private bound receipt in the **existing post-acceptance
terminal checkpoint transaction**, before cleanup. Earlier terminal
observations persist without a handled receipt or continuation pointer.
No result-acceptance or snapshot transaction was added. The late
completion path recognizes the receipt. This also prevents a late
callback from restoring a pointer after a user reset. Goal/control
publication keeps its existing owner.

The dedicated Daytona fixture now uses the existing warm/reusable
environment. Its sandbox, Runner and provider storage must survive. The
former generic per-turn fixture disposed the sandbox after completion
and kept provider-history backup bytes under the discarded directory.
Whole per-turn disk-loss acceptance therefore has a separate
provider-backup storage dependency. It remains distinct from the passing
native per-turn component checks with backup storage available. The
60-second lease, 300-second outage and 420-second grace are unchanged.

| Gate | Current repair evidence |
| --- | --- |
| Assembled regression | Baseline fails with an accepted result and
terminal snapshot but a NULL task pointer while real provider cleanup is
held. The fix passes normal continuation and reset cases, with no
pointer seeding. Exact merged `92b7447` passed 2/2 twice, including
after normal package TypeScript output refresh. Production files are
byte-identical at frozen `435ccd2`. |
| Persistence and concurrency | 19 helper/transaction cases and all 59
existing control-port cases pass on `0862062`. They cover bound result
IDs, reset/newer epochs, Stop, lock waits and expiry, receipt replay,
missing stubs, foreign bindings and atomic 4 KiB rollback. Existing
snapshot transaction count stays one. The new tests reproduce the exact
live missing-result-ID error and the inverse replay/status lock order
against `435ccd2`, then pass after the correction. Replayed results
still reject stale generations. |
| Completion | All 32 completion-boundary tests pass on merged
`92b7447`; the source is unchanged at `435ccd2`. Native result-shaped
session metadata is preserved. |
| Qualification fixture | A valid review report reproduced three
rejected correct replies. Exact token-boundary matching fixes them. 140
focused E2E/catalog cases and Product E2E typecheck pass. Wrong tokens,
marker prefixes/suffixes and wrong authors remain rejected;
retained-identity checks are unchanged. |
| Required checks | Full recursive typecheck and standard build passed
at `435ccd2`. Both exact commands also passed on `0862062`, with its
exact server build stamp; both also pass on `7a203274`, with its exact
server build stamp. Fresh `0862062` Greptile passed 5/5, with zero
unresolved threads. The `64c0b746` normal CI then passed all 49 jobs (48
success, one expected skip) and Greptile passed 5/5 with zero unresolved
findings. The `7a203274` normal CI also passed 48 jobs with one expected
skip, with fresh Greptile 5/5 and zero unresolved findings. Current
`39a4343` recursive typecheck and standard build both pass with
persisted exit codes and its exact build stamp; fresh Greptile is 5/5
with zero unresolved findings. Its normal CI completed successfully: 48
jobs passed and one expected job skipped. The fresh live result remains
separately failed. The `0862062` normal CI had 46 passing jobs, one
expected skip, one worker communication failure and its aggregate
failure; GitHub states the self-hosted runner lost communication. No
failed assertion or specific OOM/spot cause was established, and no
blind retry was used. |
| PostgreSQL supplement | One corrected all-pool pair at the preceding
repair passed 300-controller/10,000-history correctness and absolute
gates. SQL 76,590→75,990; transactions 9,013→8,713; UPDATE rows 11,613
each; 300 correct pointer writes each. PG CPU 31.99→30.46 s, WAL
70.36→67.87 MB, request p99 100.98→103.12 ms. This is one pair, not a
repeated improvement claim or an exact `0862062` CPU measurement. Its
two later changes defer premature publication and reorder existing
locks; they add no transaction, stream/idle writer, pool or timer. The
first collapsed-pool attempt remains invalid and retained. This is not
an exact final-head CPU/WAL measurement; later fixes change ordering,
identity selection and in-memory skill replacement without adding
snapshot transactions, pools, stream writes or idle SQL. |
| Live publication proof (`0862062`) | Baseline run
`06fcc806-f186-4190-9b57-087b61d75533` accepted result
`58f912dc-94d9-4b4d-bd3d-d5f689c83fd3`; the publication receipt names
the same result, the task pointer has parameters and `lastRunId`
matches, and the normalized native identity matches the following active
run. Accounting v2 settled. |
| Active recovery (`0862062`) | **FAIL.** SIGKILL/cache discard at
23:07:28.666 UTC; hold 300,000.859 ms; B ready at 308,896.486 ms;
natural generation-2 ownership at 312,906 ms. At about 319 s,
preparation failed `runner_harness_state_mismatch:
resumed_not_suspended`. No authenticated after-receipt passed within 420
s. Exact original Runner PID 668/start/fingerprint was independently
still alive; provider auto-stop was 15 minutes. No retained C follow-up
qualified. Canonical 0/1 `cleanup_failure`/cleanup-failed report remains
failed; subsequent independent cleanup deleted all three owned resources
with exact 404s and confirmed full intended-account inventory with zero
owned resources. |
| Verified adoption preparation (`64c0b746`) | 91 focused cases pass,
including actual preparation for four active providers and a distinct
prior/current warm proof. Unproved resumed state, dead process and stale
warm owner remain rejected. The earlier options-only fixture missed this
gate. No spawn, backup restore or PRP-authentication bypass was added.
Server typecheck passes. |
| Active warm identity (`64c0b746`) | **FAIL.** B claimed generation 2
at 312,995 ms. Preparation passed, then strict PRP recovery rejected the
generated attachment IDs at about 319 s. The saved and desired Runner,
lease, normalized session and run IDs matched; only
`turn_attachment_…`/`item_attachment_…` differed from generated
`turn-<run>`/`item-<run>`. Canonical 0/1 cleanup-failed report remains
failed; independent cleanup confirmed deletion/404s and zero owned
provider resources. |
| Six-field identity repair (`7a203274`) | Actual server-factory
regression RED4→GREEN38. A real Rust Runner test passes healthy first
run → random-ID warm handoff → held active second run → restored
controller. It verifies a new live authenticated connection, exact
identity, same Runner/provider OS identities, no duplicate launch/turn,
and no redispatch or invented receipt for an uncertain tool. The
synthetic wrong pair still fails the unchanged guard. This protocol case
does not claim business completion. Server and Runner typechecks pass. |
| Active recovery/completion (`7a203274`) | **PASS for the active
component.** Full five-minute SIGKILL/cache-loss hold. B ready at
308,936.651 ms; natural generation 2 observed 312,979 ms; authenticated
at 317,720 ms and resumed processing at 318,527 ms. Same run
`1e1ccb00-0728-4935-97da-57562d81cb42`, Runner
`246f73f7-a689-4177-a9c2-7ce711d63aed`, remote PID 669/start
23:48:27.470, provider lease/session and one submitted turn. Accepted
result `49097529-5310-4ac3-af95-5bf9b91d19f4`, publication, finalization
and accounting v2 all settled. |
| Full workflow (`7a203274`) | **FAIL, preserved.** Queued
late-requirement run `5e61f38d-c7d1-4fc1-bcbf-bce9d46ce4eb` failed
`runner did not durably suspend before checkpoint` before outage 2.
Canonical 0/1 candidate failure, cleanup passed, evidence valid. C
retention was not exercised. Independent provider absence,
controllers/PG cleanup, EC2 termination and root-volume absence all
confirmed; closed receipt SHA-256
`676a3b15eb9937b6bf995c36fb8666c88964d509e5ceb9109fb02da0aa2bc909`. |
| Retirement and stable configuration (`39a4343`) | Real Runner +
Postgres RED reproduced the exact suspension failure and nine owner
rejections. `turn.stop` is now lifecycle checkpoint maintenance under
unchanged owner/result/generation fences. GREEN25/25 proves actual
persisted suspension, exact identity and completed stop/drain/suspend;
unaccepted, foreign, stale and new-work negatives remain rejected. Two
default-home fingerprint REDs become GREEN9/9; explicit mode changes
still invalidate. No global matching exemption or historical fingerprint
rewrite. |
| Fresh full Daytona warm cell (`39a4343`) | **FAIL, preserved.**
Launched 00:15:29 UTC with automatic retries disabled. Active adoption
passed: actual offline hold 300,000.848 ms; B ready 309,922.155 ms;
natural generation 2 at 311,821 ms; authenticated 317,989 ms; resumed

`08e504af-4dec-48a8-bf05-bf0a32280559` and publication passed. Queued
run `31d168c9-7ab9-4700-abb6-fafb90912237` failed the same strict

identity, but no new third provider process or invocation was observed.
Recovery-time configuration still reset only `adapterConfig`; native
provider, context and workspace subtrees were unchanged. Canonical 0/1

EC2/SSH remain temporarily held for the concrete follow-up repair.
Original 60/300/420-second limits and strict queued/second-replacement
checks remain unchanged. Direct-process path; no new live prepared-task

| Native retirement authority (`283e05ffaa`) | Exact `39a4343` facade
regression RED3→GREEN9. The successor now uses its existing production
coordinator claim and prompt renewal before strict retirement. A real
Runner/Postgres case starts in the actual native-observed/unclaimed
phase, claims through production code, then closes and durably suspends
the predecessor in 1.657 s. All 25 real-Postgres cases pass;
unclaimed/foreign writers remain rejected. Shared attachment staging
stays after retirement; Stop and denied claims neither close nor stage.
No new claim or SQL path was added. |
| Configuration continuity (`283e05ffaa`) | Real shared/project-primary
environment selection → configuration with four skill versions
reproduces `reset: true`, changed category exactly `adapterConfig`,
after a Postgres JSONB read. Pinned restoration had reordered the
generated preference while actual runtime skills stayed identical.
Replacing existing pinned rows in place preserves the original fresh
name/key order and fingerprint. The assembled regression passes, as do
three existing pinned-version/rename/alias cases and server typecheck.
Genuine model/skill-selection changes still invalidate. No
fingerprint-format change or broad compatibility exemption. |

PASS: 48 jobs plus one expected skip. Fresh review 5/5, zero unresolved
threads. Live baseline, recovered run and queued continuation all
succeeded, each accepted/published/committed once with accounting v2
settled. Their native/provider identities and configuration fingerprint
match; both recovery and continuation report no reset, no changed
categories and task-session reuse. Active outage/authentication remains
within original timing. |
| Browser-dependent continuation (`283e05ffaa`, definition 6) | **Whole
cell FAIL, preserved.** After B was killed at 00:46:38.928 and its cache
discarded, C became ready in 9,151.410 ms. `openParent()` then hit a
30-second `page.goto`/DOMContentLoaded timeout before posting the final
request. No fourth native run or C continuation was exercised. Cause of
navigation timeout is unknown. C task had no execution lock, queued
comments, handoff or recovery blocker; all three prior runs were
committed/accounted. Normal cleanup passed; independent provider
absence, controller/PG cleanup, EC2 termination and exact root-volume
absence confirmed. Sanitized report bundle SHA-256
`2a3b841d62efb2ae30ef14f96a431ac4fa7fe3a782f1144831512f78edc65022`. |
| Native API continuation qualification (`9eb9ac6f9e`, definition 7) |
**FAIL, preserved.** The real post-C API request dispatched run
`c71fbb18-f979-4fe4-93ce-9c4be46dbf21`, which failed
`native_session_interrupted` / `native_session_recovery_failed` at
01:10:00.640 UTC. It selected the same normalized native identity,
Runner and checkpoint-provider identity as the three succeeded turns. No
C result was accepted; pending accounting remains explicit. Active
recovery passed: actual offline hold 300,001.098 ms, B ready 308,335.019
ms, natural generation 2 observed 311,818 ms, authenticated 315,540 ms,

root cause. All owned provider/PG/process resources, EC2, root volume

| Current required checks (`9eb9ac6f9e`) | Recursive typecheck, standard
build and exact build stamp PASS. [Normal
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41152908417)
PASS: 48 jobs plus one expected skip. Fresh Greptile 5/5, latest edited
summary checked, zero unresolved threads. Exact8/512/8,192 stream probes
again report zero recovery SQL/transactions/rows and settled-idle SQL;
seven control transactions/twelve changed rows each, with 36 separate
legitimate renewals in the longest case. CI success does not supersede
the failed live C gate. |

The completion supplement observed secondary request/liveness/checkpoint
transaction p99 increases of 23.0%/45.7%/15.6% in its single pair.
Renewal p99 stayed below 0.865 s, with 900 successful renewals per arm
and no lost leases. The named pool caps stayed 10+2+2. An aggregate
activity sample peaked at 15 non-observer entries without backend-type
classification, so no claim is made that all were client connections. No
sampled lock episodes does not establish zero lock waits.

Twelve pure reader/selector cases also pass with the new adjacent
receipt. This is not another executed process rollback. Development
reader `5cf7aead` can parse the recovery state, but its old run-detail
redactor can expose receipt IDs/outcome to an authorized run reader. The
first production release containing recovery readers, complete
attachment-identity handling and both private-field redactions is the
rollback floor. The implicit-home fix prevents new recovery-time
fingerprint drift; it does not rewrite previously stored fingerprints
from failed candidates. The development probe is not a published
supported rollback target.

Latest actual `0862062` Runner tests independently passed 8/512/8,192
text chunks with zero recovery SQL, transactions and changed rows, plus
zero settled-idle SQL. All three observed seven setup/control
transactions and twelve changed rows. The 8,192-chunk case separately
recorded 31 legitimate lease-renewal statements, with no lost lease.
These are component SQL observations, not a production CPU/WAL claim.
The new adoption and identity branches affect recovery preparation only.
The `64c0b746`, `7a203274` and exact `39a4343` CI independently passed
all three stream sizes with the same zero-SQL/idle result; each latest
8,192-chunk case recorded 36 separate renewal statements. Exact
`39a4343` Runner 2/2 passed 133 files / 2,317 tests plus two skips; its
separate native group passed 150 tests plus eight skips.

The first API fixture revision omitted the mandatory final screenshot;
this was caught before paid launch and allocated no provider/model work.
The correction captures the actual retained Chromium page with an
explicit unqualified-browser label, without changing the standard report
validator.

Automatic approval review rejected exporting raw private API/workflow
snapshots because of sensitive payloads and insufficient
destination-specific authorization. Sanitized reports and
bound/hash-only receipts are retained; raw snapshots were not copied
through another channel. This does not change the failed grade.

Repair characterization also preserves its failed attempts. An
unconditional staging relocation broke three existing same-scope
scripted cases; the final implementation defers staging only for an
actual superseded warm scope, and all nine order/race cases pass. One
baseline transform overlapped an edit and is explicitly invalid; the
actual immutable `39a4343` loader then produced the three genuine REDs.
The independent task-directory hypothesis produced a RED but was
excluded by the live shared-workspace evidence; no directory policy
change was landed. A shared-workspace fixture authorization omission was
corrected separately from the four-skill semantic RED.

Setup failures are retained separately from semantic outcomes. These
include an old host port after the owned Postgres fixture restarted and
a sandbox-denied TSX IPC pipe. The supported external-Postgres run
passed, and the final exact recursive typecheck passes with normal
process permissions. Seven stale declaration errors after the master
merge cleared after compiling the actual merged SDK/Runner TypeScript
sources. No declarations were edited by hand.

<details>
<summary>Earlier qualification measurements and failed attempts
(historical, before this repair)</summary>

**Historical blocked gate (before the repair below).** Final native
implementation is `abed921e12d543b62f57a56435419c0dafb0bc33`; current
branch head is `af9e2d157dcc349e55374ad186c9be2d6cb96bf9`. The two later
commits change only qualification fixtures, their matcher and
documentation; `server/` and `packages/` are unchanged. It includes
master through `fd008979f5794fda3d5f54151d36acd31d0de140`.

The live Daytona measurement proves five-minute active recovery,
once-only completion and accounting, but **fails retained-session
identity after the second replacement**. The saved checkpoint and
recovery metadata exist. The task-session pointer remains empty, and
ordinary admission creates new native/provider sessions. The exact
skipped publication boundary remains unproven. A useful saved-file
result alone does not satisfy retained-session continuation. This
application-path gap blocks merge independently of CI.

A separate new-master CI failure is owned by the storage workstream (fix
in #18357). No storage guard, session-identity oracle, lease/grace limit
or provider result was relaxed.

| Gate | Observed result and exact scope |
| --- | --- |
| Distinct source recovery and compatible rollback | PASS at A
`5cf7aead09a2d9c7e2f2929d761f535ef3c1d798` → B
`5ea45f8d17e33c9a62bd79982dcf0375b07733d0` → fresh B → A. Four
controller processes, natural 60-second lease expiry, absent native
projections before replacements, three succeeded/committed unique
results, one provider thread, unchanged Runner identity, and strict idle
cleanup. 177.782 seconds. |
| Immutable installed native component | PASS at installed A
`5cf7aead09a2d9c7e2f2929d761f535ef3c1d798` → installed B
`eaef0d56552c087aaa4fa68a8655282ffbd12667` → fresh B → A. Each
controller imports its contained compiled server and DB. Three unique
committed results, stable Runner/thread, no extra provider restart on
same-contract rollback, strict cleanup. 106.672 seconds. This is
compiled component proof, separate from full CLI-native application
acceptance. |
| Normal public CLI startup | PASS for B
`eaef0d56552c087aaa4fa68a8655282ffbd12667`, Node 24.22.1, darwin-arm64:
fresh external DB, 415 migrations, health ready, root HTML 200, company
POST 201 plus GET readback. The installed tree remained unchanged after
execution. |
| Five-minute component outage | Actual controller absence 300,168 ms.
Natural generation-2 claim at 407.196 seconds after crash, same provider
attempt and Runner, original run succeeded/committed. The larger
540-second case timed out before its retained follow-ups, so it is an
active-adoption pass, not a complete four-controller pass. The complete
short source/installed cases above independently cover follow-up and
rollback. |
| Drain/resume review regression | Fixed in
`226f03e736d1ee99fea1762ab32ea3a8a9241c20`. Five facade-level cases
pass: overdue normal/restart waits, future timer cancellation, another
facade resuming the original owner, and transient retry. Against exact
prior scheduler `5ea45f8d17e33c9a62bd79982dcf0375b07733d0`, four fail
and one passes. The later head changes documentation only. |
| Final corrected-fixture Daytona | **PARTIAL: active recovery PASS;
retained identity FAIL**, exact live source `0b6afc499f`. A was
SIGKILLed and native cache discarded; actual offline hold 300,000.375
ms. B was ready at 308,326.961 ms, naturally claimed generation 2 at
312,059 ms, authenticated at 315,996 ms and resumed processing at
316,519 ms, within the original 420-second boundary. The same run,
Runner PID/start, session, lease and event prefix survived; one turn
submitted. Original execution succeeded and settled accounting. After
completion, B was killed and its native cache discarded; C was ready in
9,077.779 ms. C executed the saved project and returned correct
`queue_r`, with all four runs succeeded/accounted. However, native and
true provider-session identities changed: the unchanged retained oracle
fails. No whole-workflow pass is claimed. |
| Prior matched-producer Daytona | FAILED at exact `abed921e12`. The
matching current-source Runner passed normal admission, completed the
first task and settled its accounting. During the active revision, A was
SIGKILLed and its native cache discarded. Actual offline hold was
300,000.727 ms; B was ready at 308,304 ms and naturally claimed
generation 2 at 309,651 ms. At about 318 seconds, the remote process
check reported `process_not_running` for the original admitted Runner.
No authenticated after-receipt or retained follow-up passed. The current
failure is preserved; no automatic retry, lease/grace relaxation, debt
edit or provider replay is used. Bounded forensic read found preserved
exact-bound state with no recoverable failure, a transport-reset
diagnostic and no terminal delivery; this supports external process loss
without proving the exact cause. The sandbox had a five-minute auto-stop
policy, conflicting with the required surviving-sandbox assumption.
Owned cleanup precedes the separate corrected-fixture case. |

**Live retained-session boundary.** Prior completed run `3806…` and C
follow-up `8adf1df3-6744-40bf-b35d-100451f29d9f` both have database
session snapshots and `nativeControllerRecovery`. Their tool
fingerprint, provider configuration, workspace descriptor,
runtime-context digest, driver and work mode match. There is no recorded
force-fresh/workspace-selection change, and this is an ordinary task
rather than a conversation-generation reset. The same issue/agent
task-session row has `session_params_json: null` and `last_run_id: null`
from baseline time. Both native normalized UUID and actual provider
session/thread hashes differ after C. Full application admission
therefore did not select the retained source. No fallback to file
execution or relaxed identity comparison is accepted as proof of
continuity.

**Independent cleanup completed.** Full current-account provider
inventory confirms no resources owned by either final fixture, with
exact-ID absence checks. Owned controllers and campaign Postgres are
stopped/removed. EC2 `i-01551c09af098dde5` is terminated, its
delete-on-termination root volume returned `InvalidVolume.NotFound` at
22:14:08 UTC, and the temporary SSH key/agent were removed. The
canonical failed report and immutable oracle input are retained. Closed
qualification receipt SHA-256:
`b4b5fefce287ebfdbf2cc2238efaad62d8ad485aed0e9c0628ae95dbc18a8575`.

**Original measurement and grader repair remain separate.** The C reply
contains the requested marker followed by a newline and the correct
output. The old workflow waited for one literal space, so its normal
receipt collection stalled; that original attempt was closed and its
canonical `cleanup_failure`/interrupted result is preserved. Commit
`af9e2d157d` repairs only this reply predicate, with 144 focused cases,
E2E typecheck, discovery and diff checks passing. Ordinary string
matching stays literal. The corrected predicate accepts the saved reply,
but the unchanged retained-identity oracle still fails. Pure
active-recovery grading of the captured measurement passes 7/7; this is
not a rewritten passing campaign.

The sandbox idle-window conflict was corrected only for this explicit
fixture (15 minutes). Actual baseline and later sandbox metadata confirm
that policy; the original active box was disposed before a post-gate
policy read, so its 15-minute setting is established by the normal
create/environment configuration rather than an after-read of that box.
Production native lifecycle and the 60/300/420-second constants remain
unchanged.

The development compatibility reader A is a genuine backport commit
based on `59ff89a18fe1312b5f0bb908439bbdb1237b0252`, with the required
idle-goal reader fixes. It is not a previously published release. Its
older executor differs from B. The rollback floor must include this
reader capability. The source component cases admitted the Linux ARM64
Runner packaged at `59ff89a18fe1312b5f0bb908439bbdb1237b0252`; the
installed component case admitted the `5cf7aead` package. Their Runner
bytes are identical: SHA-256
`b1f04caa1ce04e720dec7eb62ede170eb3621948c0849b8f305ea5c5116bced8`. Each
admitted artifact remained unchanged throughout its case.

[Final public package
build](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41121460635)
and [reader-floor
build](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41122170506)
both passed all four daemon builds, package assembly and both Darwin
clean consumers. Both Linux ARM consumers failed before provider work
with the same existing local Codex permission-profile error: bubblewrap
attempts `activity.fifo/.git` and reports “Not a directory.” This
matched baseline failure remains open; it is not a native remote
continuity pass. Full post-run tree and build-stamp revalidation also
passed after the compiled native case. The installed component trees are
A `c29114c1bf71c5af00f761aeb9e3d84ed3d3075b9f5600dee3ef2543eb2b6ec5` and
B `eda575505373a3bdc630fa4919862b359791fe3a7ef637961a25b73b38efe4b0`.

**Controlled PostgreSQL qualification passed.**
Baseline/candidate/candidate/baseline workloads used 300 controllers,
10,000 historical tasks, real snapshot/encrypted PRP writes and
unchanged pools. PostgreSQL and client were each limited to two CPUs and
1536 MiB on an isolated eight-vCPU Linux host.

| Workload | PG CPU per operation | WAL per operation | Database request
p99 |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Steady | +1.18% | +1.81% | +1.91% |
| Aligned burst | +3.40% | +2.56% | +3.81% |
| Two logical servers | +3.11% | +2.56% | +9.68% |

All arms passed absolute/correctness gates with unchanged control
transaction counts, no dropped operations and no owner loss. Overlap p99
has little margin below the relative threshold. It uses two clients in
one Node process, not two HTTP servers. [Closed measurements and
limitations](doc/plans/2026-10-30-native-controller-qualification-evidence.json)
and exact-source reproduction patches are retained. [Earlier
contended-host
failures](doc/plans/2026-10-30-native-controller-load-evidence.json)
remain unchanged. The production DB-claim probe claimed 300 owners in
2.84 seconds and restored/committed controls and snapshots in 8.74
seconds, with zero owner loss or settled-idle SQL; its provider
references were synthetic. The measured checkpoint/snapshot/renewal
paths retain the same persistence behavior after integration; later
accounting and business writes have separate owners.

Actual Runner stream tests at `da8c7f6e1837ddd896dfe83a7524812fee813487`
passed 8/512/8,192 chunks: zero recovery SQL, transactions and changed
rows during text intervals; zero settled-idle SQL. Each retained seven
control transactions and twelve changed records. Existing renewal SQL
was measured separately. The guard/scheduler fixes add no stream path,
pool or recurring idle scan.

The live fixture used current-source producer SHA-256
`f0000c90cb83880191479da639201e659aa6ce0fc7d67c859faa172ec977849e`, a
normal locked exact-head build with pinned Rust 1.97.1 in Bookworm.
Actual network-isolated, read-only ABI execution passed (GLIBC
requirement 2.34 against runtime 2.36). The immutable base image
remained
`ghcr.io/paperclipai/paperclip-daytona-runner@sha256:36069788f53c51f228764fa36180575443dfb5d1f84a342d7c0daceb28dc61cc`,
source `a0ef3ce7`. This was an unpublished development producer,
explicitly distinct from the base image and admitted before the fresh
fixture began. The earlier host build failed ABI preflight before
admission. The preceding old-producer fixture completed its initial task
but lacked the usage-basis marker required by current master; it
remained pending/unpriced and correctly paused. It was independently
cleaned without debt or budget changes. Two preceding local Linux setup
attempts OOM-killed before provider allocation, and their cleanup
passed. These attempts remain separate from the final recovery failure.

**Failures retained and resolved separately.** The earlier `98f05fc`
probe rejected a valid settled PRP v2 goal suffix; `eaef0d5` fixed that
reader and the fresh follow-up passed. Later component cleanup failures
were traced by a scoped exception observer to the fixture adapter
rejecting directory downloads. A bounded owned-directory transfer with
exact-byte/mode preflight corrected the fixture; source and installed
strict-cleanup cases then passed. No production guard was relaxed. The
initial local integrated control-port run hit its 30-second embedded
Postgres startup hook before executing 59 cases; 18 other focused cases
passed. A bounded rerun used a fresh owned external Postgres fixture,
applied normal migrations before Vitest, and passed all 59 cases with
the original timeouts unchanged. Its container and data were removed;
the failed attempt remains retained.

The additional opt-in full Product E2E Vitest run is not green: 5,313
passed, seven failed and three skipped. An actual `abed921e12` archive
with the same dependencies, Node and IPC permissions reproduces all
seven failures with the same reasons. Five are unchanged
workflow-policy/profile-pin assertions, including Pi profile version 37
versus the test pin 35. Two database suites failed during embedded
Postgres startup before their assertions; semaphore exhaustion is
confirmed in the observer log. The observer passes its supported
external-Postgres rerun with original timeouts and source unchanged. The
controller-database client-kill/postmaster assertions remain unexecuted
after `initdb` bootstrap failure; no external override is supported. The
unit launcher stopped before its Node-test phase, which was then run
independently and passed 181/181. The original failed full run is
preserved. These results remain distinct from the passing focused checks
and normal repository CI. The first local Product E2E typecheck also
encountered stale compiled Runner declarations; a genuine package-local
TypeScript compile refreshed them and the unchanged check passed,
without a dependency install or producer rebuild.

Earlier [Daytona campaign
41108162900](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41108162900)
failed at sandbox creation before any agent, with the underlying
provider error unavailable. Its [sanitized
report](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-41108162900-2/index.html)
remains a `cleanup_failure`. Both old creation names are absent in the
current authenticated account, but the old CI account identity was not
retained, so account equivalence is unproven. The subsequent exact
`eaef0d5` source Product E2E attempt passed image/agent setup and the
initial project, then held the controller offline for 300,003.7 ms. Its
Mac supervisor failed owned-process inspection before B readiness; no
adoption passed. Full current-company lease/label checks, provider
deletion, exact-ID 404s and complete inventory confirmed cleanup of that
attempt. Its local server and owned Postgres stopped. The prior AWS
campaigns and database qualification VM were terminated with root
volumes removed.

The old admitted test Runner lacks the newer usage-basis marker
introduced on master. The integrated component B turns retained
unpriced, incomplete accounting obligations with `costAccountingPending:
true` and no settled charge. The compatibility-reader A turn used its
legacy receipt interpretation but likewise retained pending accounting
and no settlement timestamp. This proves obligation preservation, not a
whole-run accounting migration. Runner/receiver release ordering remains
governed by the usage owner's contract.

At native implementation `abed921e12d543b62f57a56435419c0dafb0bc33`,
Greptile was 5/5 with zero unresolved threads and CI completed with 54
successful checks and five expected skips. At `0b6afc499f`, Greptile
again passed 5/5 with zero unresolved threads, but CI ended with 51
successful checks, five skips and three failures. Server 9/12 fails a
deterministic managed-skills maintenance assertion newly inherited from
master `198218bf` in merge `c80e00ad`; that test is absent from the PR
head, and the storage owner has the explicit-StorageService fix in
#18357. Runner 2/2 passed 2,283 unit cases but its runner received a
shutdown signal during the long stream probe; its cancelled step and
aggregate failure are preserved. No blind retry was used. Current
`af9e2d157d` checks are pending; the matcher-only change passes 144
focused cases and Product E2E typecheck. Earlier scheduling-sensitive CI
failures and the interrupted unsharded local test run remain recorded in
the dated plan. CI runs the repository's normal test partitions. Final
verification does not claim Railway rollout, uninterrupted HTTP service
or whole-webserver filesystem loss.

## Risks

- The task-pointer repair passes its assembled regression. The first
live repair exposed pre-acceptance ordering and the fresh review exposed
a replay lock-order issue; both are fixed and pass real Postgres tests
at `0862062`. The following live attempt exposed the
verified-running-versus-suspended preparation gate. Its narrow fix
passes 91 focused cases at `64c0b746`. The next live case exposed
synthetic attachment IDs; `7a203274` fixes that field selection and
passes real Runner authentication. The subsequent queued continuation
exposed strict retirement maintenance and a false default-home change;
`39a4343` fixes both with real Runner/Postgres and fingerprint
regressions. The `39a4343` live continuation failed again despite green
CI. `283e05ffaa` repairs the actual native-observed admission ordering
and reproduces/fixes the JSONB skill-order fingerprint drift. Both pass
targeted real-Postgres regressions and the live active plus queued
paths. The definition 6 post-C browser navigation timed out before
admission. Explicit definition 7 now verifies native continuation
through the ordinary comment API; its strict post-C native gate failed
after a real dispatch and remains historical failed evidence. The final
fc68584 repair now passes its fresh strict 49-check Linux/Daytona
campaign; the prior failed grades remain unchanged. Browser reconnection
is handed to its own workstream with the original failed evidence. No
prior failed campaign is reclassified as passing.
- Incorrect checkpoint/source binding or stale ownership could duplicate
external work. Missing evidence remains a hold; existing receipt and
finalization owners keep uncertain effects unresolved.
- Recovery must retain maintenance writes after accepted results without
allowing a stale business turn to write. Real lock-wait and generation
tests cover that boundary.
- The current two-connection paired burst profile fails its absolute
drain gate in both baseline and candidate, despite passing relative load
gates and all correctness checks. A causal capacity diagnostic selected
three slots; the final controlled cap-three profiles pass unchanged
thresholds. Full application replacement and two-server overlap capacity
remain separate. There is no new streaming writer, pool or recurring
idle scan.
- The remote sandbox and Runner must survive the recovery window.
Provider auto-stop is a separate lifetime bound from reconnect grace;
the explicit qualification fixture uses a longer idle window.
- Workspace and provider backup availability remain external
dependencies. This PR does not certify whole-webserver filesystem loss,
uninterrupted HTTP service or a Railway rollout.

## Model Used

Implementation and initial verification used OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex;
the initial hosted snapshot was not exposed. The follow-up qualification

DottaandPaperclip 8ff812cdde feat(chat): deliver proactive task messages to agent chats (#18374)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agent Chat gives each person a persistent conversation with each
agent.
> - Tasks and routines produce results outside that conversation.
> - Those runs need a safe way to bring a requested result back to the
person.
> - The server must select the agent's own chat and check the source
task's access rules.
> - This pull request adds proactive chat messages and unread
indicators.
> - People can see the result, open its source task, and reply in the
same chat.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Server, native runner tools, shared contracts, database, and UI.

**Problem or motivation**

An agent can report progress on a task or comment on an authorized task.
It cannot send a routine result to its own standing chat with the
responsible person. A morning review routine therefore cannot leave a
visible digest in that person's chat.

**Proposed solution**

Add `send_chat_message({body, idempotencyKey})` and `POST
/api/agents/me/chat/messages`. The server selects the company, agent,
and responsible person from the active run. It saves an attributed
comment and audit record in one transaction. The chat shows a
source-task link and per-person unread state.

**Alternatives considered**

A destination parameter on a generic comment tool would expose
unnecessary routing authority. A new delivery worker would add another
durable delivery path. This change uses a dedicated tool and the
existing comment and live-event paths.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the experimental Agent Chat capability in `ROADMAP.md`. The
existing `enableAgentChat` setting controls it. Related public work:
Refs #13282, Refs #13283, and Refs #14408. Searches for proactive chat
and unread chat found no duplicate PR.

## What Changed

- Add a focused messaging service shared by the native tool and HTTP
route. It checks current run ownership, execution mode, recipient
membership, task access, and task privacy.
- Reuse the canonical company/agent/person conversation. Save the
comment and audit record together. Keep task completion and chat
execution separate from delivery.
- Add source-task provenance and source-scoped retry keys. Identical
retries return the saved receipt. Changed content returns a conflict.
- Enforce the conversation's fixed agent at the shared comment-write
boundary. Keep normal reply cancellation and session checks.
- Add chat unread state, accessible agent dots, aggregate Chat
indicators, and visible-message read cutoffs. Refresh through existing
live events.
- Add the request-key constraint, native tool contracts, documentation,
capability maps, stories, and regression coverage.

## Verification

- Local delivery/security proof: all 38 proactive-message cases pass.
Eight credential-scope regressions and four quota regressions fail
against the prior source. The repaired delivery and canonical
cross-issue cap suites pass all 49 cases; all 31 OpenAPI tests, server
typecheck, and capability-map checks pass. The shared per-run cap covers
native and HTTP sends, mixed ordinary mutations, concurrent last-slot
contention, and retry/recovery without double charging.
- Credential tests preserve the authenticated person and authorizer;
reject bridge/test credentials and persisted skill-test runs after
task-mode changes; and recheck API-key revocation, scope, and
responsible person after destination locking. The earlier
delivery/native-authority suites passed all 74 cases before the four
quota additions.
- Four PostgreSQL contention cases cover native and HTTP sends plus
retries during a native chat mutation. All four deadlock against the
earlier source and pass with destination-before-source/run locking.
Recovery and human-reply delivery enqueue only the human comment; a
proactive digest never wakes the chat agent.
- Passed 108 companion conversation, native-authority, and OpenAPI
tests; 112 runner catalog/workflow-report tests; 47 completion-delivery
tests; and 25 project-handoff tests. Focused runner tests cover native
tool availability without generic API tools.
- All 327 affected UI tests, UI typecheck, token gates, and catalog
checks pass. The read hook retries at most three times, respects server
retry delay, coalesces only seen cutoffs, recovers on reconnect, and
cancels on scope changes.
- Real browser journeys with a deterministic process agent verify
routine-to-chat delivery, first-chat creation, unread state across
reload, the source link, secondary chat navigation, and a follow-up
reply referring to the digest. This does not qualify live GitHub
retrieval or model output quality.
- The Storybook showcase uses production components with deterministic
network fixtures. Rendered interactions pass for the landing, ordinary
read success, transient read recovery, and persistent failure after
bounded retries. Both Chat navigation variants update from two unread
chats to one while only Kodi's dot clears. Mobile and light variants
were reviewed. The existing Coordinator Recents label contrast finding
is unchanged; no Linux visual baseline archive exists.
- Current master's independent sandbox migration retains 0418.
Regenerated the feature migration as 0419 from the combined schema and
retained exactly the newest five snapshots; numbering/safety, replay,
and schema-drift checks pass.
- Workspace typecheck and build passed before PR preparation; canonical
server/UI typechecks passed again on the combined tree. Migration
`0419_slippery_impossible_man.sql` passes safety and schema drift checks
on disposable PostgreSQL, including interrupted index repair, concurrent
migrators, one-time owner read-state backfill, preserved receipts, and
two SQL replays. A default five-second local snapshot comparison timed
out; a diagnostic 30-second run passed without drift.
- Earlier failures are retained in the record: full local `pnpm
test:run` and broad shards encountered embedded-PostgreSQL startup,
timing, and provider-recovery failures. Thirteen selected
external-channel cases pass in isolation on the original and changed
sources; an unordered comment-row assertion now explicitly orders both
reads. The earlier route registry, native tool count, runner catalog,
and accessible Chat badge-name failures were fixed and passed full
remote CI on `920b3bb7db`.
- Repeated managed-skill server8 failures came from CI's newer synthetic
merge: its Cloud guard correctly rejected the old local-disk fixture.
Master independently repaired the fixture in #18385; this branch keeps
that repair unchanged. All 57 managed-skill and Cloud prerequisite cases
pass on the combined tree, and that fixture has no remaining PR diff.
- Current reviewed head `dc16f314739a6d977bed21cb1446d0e80a541578`:
Greptile 5/5 with no findings, Superagent security assessment passed,
advisory Paperclip Review 5/5 with no findings, and zero open review
threads. All 55 current-head check runs pass, with five expected skips
and the advisory review neutral at 5/5; Snyk also passes. No checks are
pending or failing. Protected squash auto-merge is enabled and is
waiting for required code-owner approval. A normal exact-head merge was
refused by the base-branch policy; no admin bypass was used. The
previous head's Superagent quota finding is fixed and covered above.

## Risks

- Chat remains company-visible. Delivery rejects a source task with
private-task, project, or ancestor restrictions.
- Read state uses a comment timestamp cutoff. The server retains
database precision and never moves a read receipt backward.
- The new unique constraint changes comment query planning. An existing
regression now uses an explicit row order. The migration builds the
unique index concurrently, then takes a brief table lock to attach it.
It uses the existing top-level migration and interrupted-index recovery
path.
- The upgrade backfills missing chat-owner read-state rows at the latest
existing agent comment. Existing read receipts remain intact. New chats
can still be unread before the human participates.
- Quota observation commits atomically with delivery. A rejected send
rolls back its attempted denial audit row and any first-chat creation;
the canonical warning remains in server logs, and previously spent quota
remains enforced. Identical/conflicting retries and receipt recovery
spend no extra slot.
- This version delivers in-app only. It adds no external-channel, push,
or email delivery.
- Local full-suite acceptance remains limited by the failures recorded
above. The feature stays behind `enableAgentChat`.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex. PR preparation and CI work used `gpt-6.1-sol` with tool
use and code execution. The earlier implementation also used Codex, but
its exact model ID was not recorded in the visible session. The
context-window size was not provided.

DottaandPaperclip 0e15c92073 feat(skills): make managed content independent of web-server disk (#18334)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents use installed skills and exact version pins during execution.
> - Managed skills still depended on mutable directories on the web
server.
> - A replacement server could lose acknowledged edits or remove an
unassigned skill whose directory was absent.
> - This pull request makes immutable versions the authority for managed
content and installed repository reads.
> - The server can rebuild delivery files from durable content after
replacement.
> - This establishes skills readiness for ephemeral web servers. General
server draining and workspace recovery remain separate work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Skills services, shared contracts, database receipts, Skill Studio, and
runtime delivery.

**Problem or motivation**

A fresh web server must discover, read, edit, and deliver protected
installed skills using the same database, object storage, secrets, and
supported application artifacts. It must not need its predecessor's
files or process memory.

**Proposed solution**

Use `managed` ownership with a null source locator. Read installed
content by immutable version. Prepare packages before a short
publication transaction. Persist execution selections before
materialization. Recover exact pinned runtime assets and reject deletion
while active or recovering pins exist.

**Alternatives considered**

Reconstructing a mutable installed directory preserves the old
source-of-truth ambiguity. Permanent dual writes create two competing
authorities. This change uses one managed model after a bounded legacy
conversion.

**Roadmap alignment**

This improves the existing Skills Manager, Studio, version history, and
Cloud execution capabilities. The maintainer supplied the implementation
contract. This does not add a separate skills product or deploy fleet
changes.

Related work: #18082 supplies immutable package storage. #17273
addresses edits outside the API for linked local skills; this PR keeps
that source category separate. #2648 is a closed earlier
ephemeral-filesystem proposal.

## What Changed

- Add managed ownership and focused content publication and execution
materialization modules. Keep the archive format and package storage
tables.
- Publish managed create, save, delete, fork, rename, restore, and
catalog content with version checks. Add durable create receipts.
Preserve file-save receipt responses.
- Return file version identities. Keep Studio drafts after a conflict
and provide an explicit reload action. A delayed reload cannot overwrite
newer typing or navigation.
- Persist exact runtime selections, including empty selections. Rebuild
pinned assets and verify their admitted digests on a replacement server.
- Preserve source access on forks and disconnected copies. Keep the
existing workspace policy category for managed skills.
- Add bounded conversion, eligibility, and independent verification
phases. Load persisted Cloud configuration in the standalone CLI without
seeding or changing it. Reject partial current versions against
installed inventories; recover only complete saved content or the exact
source. Document storage migration blockers and the compatible rollback
floor.
- Add separate-process PostgreSQL/S3 qualification and update domain,
retention, policy, and UI regressions.
- Pass the plugin worker manager into Studio execution, admit restricted
`skill_test` mode through native Runner contracts, and preserve admitted
scope across native and REST tools. Native tests cannot create ordinary
tasks, browse company data, or use external tools.
- Select the exact durable Studio revision even when unassigned or Beta
skills is off. Persist Studio output and audit atomically with native
task completion, preserving the result on replay.

## Verification

- Final revision `13e8af480b88ba6fea5737bac4bd81104d604792` passed full
CI: all 49 workflow jobs completed successfully ([run
41127396098](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41127396098)).
This includes typecheck, test suites, Runner checks, browser checks and
build. Greptile review 15 is 5/5 on that same revision, with zero
unresolved threads. The PR is ready for review.
- Local workspace typecheck and build passed after integrating master.
Focused checks passed: 33 execution/completion cases, 52 Runner HTTP
cases, 16 managed-content cases, 17 Studio cases, the new real-process
CLI regression, map checks and UI token gates. The CLI regression proves
inspection does not seed missing Cloud configuration. Server typecheck
passed after that fix.
- The independent-process PostgreSQL/S3 matrix passed through normal
HTTP skill routes. It covers A → B → C replacement, lost commit
responses, upload crashes, concurrent saves, binary contents and
executable delivery. Metadata listing and warm selected delivery retain
zero object downloads. Local timing measurements are recorded; they do
not establish hosted latency.
- Hosted A → B → C passed on the owned disposable test tenant with
external Postgres, S3 and a real remote Paperclip Computer. Predecessor
temporary homes were absent. C read and executed B's acknowledged
managed save. New runs used repository v1 while v2 was installed. Hashes
matched an independently checked exact upstream commit.
- Compatible image rollback to `6518b323` passed. Studio retained the
unassigned fork's C save. A fresh remote run executed the newer managed
content and historical repository pin. The actual shell event confirmed
expected hashes, stdout, exit 0 and mode 0555.
- Runtime candidate `9200e3fcb4` deployed successfully ([Cloud run
41124147876](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/actions/runs/41124147876)).
The final Studio test delivered only the unassigned fork's exact v3,
executed its script and persisted a successful output snapshot.
Independent command-event inspection confirmed all three hashes, stdout,
exit 0 and mode 0555. All 14 installations were version-backed.
Independent verification checked all 25 versions: 23 remote objects, two
bundled database snapshots, zero blockers.
- The deployed image is `9200e3fcb4`. Later master integration, the
client-only delayed-reload draft guard and the CLI bootstrap have
separate automated proof. The CLI bootstrap was also exercised against
the tenant's stored configuration and storage through the same read-only
services. This PR does not claim that the deployed image is the final PR
revision.
- Live Studio checks exposed worker wiring, admission, access scope,
exact selection and completion-publication gaps. They are fixed. Failed
attempts remain in the evidence. The full local suite exceeded 80
minutes under host contention and was stopped. Later combined/isolated
local attempts also timed out; they are not counted as passes. Full CI
covers the integrated suites. Earlier CI found an obsolete restart-scope
fixture, which was corrected and passed all 52 HTTP cases.
- Reproduction and migration:
[`doc/skill-ephemeral-web-servers.md`](doc/skill-ephemeral-web-servers.md).
Source revisions, deployments, versions, run IDs, hashes and failure
history:
[`doc/plans/2026-10-30-ephemeral-web-skills.md`](doc/plans/2026-10-30-ephemeral-web-skills.md).

## Risks

- Legacy conversion requires stopped admission and retired
filesystem-authoritative writers. Pre-conversion binaries are not
supported rollback targets afterward.
- Cloud readiness requires remote object storage. Local provider
receipts and provider mismatches remain blockers until objects are
copied and verified.
- Linked local sources retain filesystem semantics and are outside the
cloud guarantee.
- Cold reads still fetch the existing archive format. Warm runtime
preparation retains the verified-cache path.
- Bundled reconciliation preserves an installed head. Existing release
snapshots remain selectable. An older server must not replace a newer
head with its shipped files.
- No production volumes, fleet defaults, or general deployment
coordination change in this PR.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and browser use. The exact backend model ID and
context-window size are not exposed in this session. No subagents were
used.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 6174b4d7c8 fix(runner): allow session reset after confirmed task retirement (#18373)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Native warm sessions retain a Runner owner between turns.
> - Closing that owner must stop execution and preserve valid recovery
state.
> - A failed suspension can leave a rejected close promise after the
task has stopped.
> - A session reset then retries that same promise and blocks every
fresh session.
> - This PR separates task retirement proof from checkpoint reuse for a
new session.
> - A reset can proceed after exact stop proof, completed handoff, and
file collection.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18011. That change preserves checkpoint authority during warm
preparation. This change handles a stopped owner whose checkpoint cannot
be reused. Related: #14695 covers managed files retained with warm
processes. A search found no duplicate stopped-owner reset fix.

**What happened?**

A warm Runner can stop and complete its task handoff while close reports
`runner did not durably suspend before checkpoint`. The transport caches
that rejected close promise. Core retains the warm owner. Each session
reset retries the same promise before it can launch a provider. A
controller restart clears the in-memory owner and permits recovery.

**Expected behavior**

A reset to a new normalized session should release the old owner when
its exact task has proved that execution stopped and its handoff
completed. Core must collect stopped instruction files before it admits
the new session. An unconfirmed owner must continue to block
replacement.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Complete a warm native run through a plugin task provider.
2. Change configuration so Core retires the warm owner.
3. Let the task stop and complete, but fail durable suspension proof.
Close keeps its rejected promise.
4. Reset the session and start another run on the same task environment.
5. Observe the old close error before any new provider work starts.

## What Changed

- Keep a lease-bound retirement receipt in the plugin task owner. It
requires `executionStopped: true` and successful task completion after
credential handoff.
- Accept an unrecoverable suspension error only during retirement for a
different normalized session, with that exact owner's receipt and
settled Core tool results.
- Collect stopped instruction files before releasing the warm owner.
Preserve old checkpoint evidence.
- Keep same-session, active-owner, incomplete-handoff, unrelated-owner,
unresolved Core tool results, and other close-error fences.
- Report Core tool settlement on the close error after ingress
retirement and drain. Default missing proof to false. Expose the error
through the server's Runner shim. Add regression tests and document the
recovery boundary.

## Verification

- The reset regression fails with the new handling disabled and passes
with it enabled.
- Both affected suites passed: 1,032 tests. The final 15 focused
owner/reset cases pass after adding the tool-settlement guard.
- The assembled regression uses the real task-owner and backend binding.
Its controlled task provider proves stop and completion. Close returns
the same rejected promise on every call.
- Negative cases cover incomplete handoff, other close errors,
same-session continuation, provider change with the same session ID,
unrelated receipts, unresolved Core tool results, and failed file
collection. Collection can later succeed without replaying stop or
reading the old checkpoint.
- Five real-process transport cases pass. They cover an insufficient
suspension deadline, the cached rejected promise, late tool completion
within and beyond the deadline, interruption, and result-persistence
failure. Unsettled callbacks produce `semanticToolsSettled: false`.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed with the repository's pinned Rust toolchain
on PATH. After the final contract change, Runner TypeScript build and
server `tsc --noEmit` passed.
- The local full-suite run was stopped at the requester's direction.
Full regression and build coverage are delegated to GitHub CI.
- Full GitHub CI passed on `ef0040d80af679ce6d4a130468e15f75678c1f4c`.
Standard Greptile reviewed the same commit: 5/5, zero comments. Apex
then reviewed that same commit: 5/5, zero comments. Final checks confirm
no unresolved review threads and no merge conflicts.
- Initial full CI on `00c002fd5a` failed one scheduled-retry route test
at 18/20 cancellations. Controlled cancellation latency reproduced the
short poll-budget failure. Before the next cycle, master advanced with
#18322, which coordinates that test at the first completed batch. The
separate local timeout commit was dropped during rebase. The upstream
test passes locally. The rebased run passed 46 targeted owner/reset and
scheduled-retry route cases. This PR has no scheduled-retry source or
test diff.
- No deployed provider run or tenant rollout is claimed by these source
tests.

## Risks

The exception applies only to a new normalized session and an exact
completed plugin task. The old checkpoint remains evidence and cannot
authorize reuse through this path. The original suspension failure can
remain visible on its run. This fix prevents repeated startup failures
after a reset; it does not hide unconfirmed cleanup or make every
suspension succeed. Missing task receipts and failed file collection
continue to block replacement. No schema migration, plugin protocol
change, Rust Runner binary change, or new polling is required. Tests use
a controlled task boundary; they do not certify every external provider
implementation.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 9f524ec1a7 fix: persist native Runner usage before transport acknowledgement (#18354)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agent execution must preserve usage so Paperclip can price work and
enforce budgets.
> - Remote Runner execution can outlive its web receiver.
> - The receiver previously acknowledged Runner events before its later
usage recorder saved the accounting receipt.
> - This pull request saves required native usage receipts before that
transport acknowledgement.
> - A replacement receiver can accept the same retained report and
create one ledger charge.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Native remote Runner usage could leave its durable outbox before the web
receiver saved its accounting receipt. The later recorder required a
local receipt directory. A replacement web receiver could lose the only
remaining report when the database write failed.

**Expected behavior**

The Runner retains unaccepted structured usage. Postgres owns accepted
receipts. Repeated delivery preserves one receipt for each source report
and one charge for the run. Missing usage keeps accounting pending.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a supported built-in native remote Runner.
2. Make the receipt database insert fail after the provider reports
usage.
3. Replace the web receiver and its local directory.
4. Reconnect the same Runner and inspect the saved receipt and ledger.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The initial investigation used
`ebd05e9f4c88c66af7473db86bbaacfd1544aa0a`.

**Deployment mode**

A web server with a remote native Runner and shared Postgres.

Related work: #18327 owns output logs and provider traces. This change
has no dependency on its S3 export path. #18031 covers interrupted Codex
receipt recovery. #18005 covers legacy spool reads. #17516 covers Codex
stop-boundary retention.

## What Changed

- Add native producer receipt delivery through the existing Runner
callback before transport acknowledgement.
- Reuse `run_usage_receipts`, stable source sequences, and deterministic
report identities. Reject conflicting replay and retry a lost commit
response with the same receipt.
- Restore per-turn usage from structured receipt facts. Preserve
provider turns that share one PRP envelope turn.
- Bind retained warm transport callbacks to the current run authority
epoch, allowing old attachment control acknowledgements while preserving
accounting ownership.
- Persist Codex session baselines and cumulative totals in the existing
provider checkpoint. Mark qualified whole-run deltas, preserve them
across resume/restart/attachment, and leave old unmarked reports
incomplete and unpriced.
- Normalize the bounded final usage tail before the terminal event.
Retain later increases for explicit reconciliation, block further
attachment, and fail an affected successor without changing its
baseline.
- Complete runs from the accepted immutable receipt and its exact saved
rate-card amount; preserve existing live-budget enforcement.
- Skip the local receipt recorder for supported built-in native remote
Runner execution. Keep local, legacy, and external Dot/Muse behavior
unchanged.
- Keep pricing, reservations, ledger settlement, source fencing, and
budget holds with their existing owners.
- Put the actual Runner integration test in the existing Rust-cached
native test lane. Build before opening Postgres and give cold
compilation its own bounded budget.

## Verification

- Fresh Greptile review is 5/5 on
`e7376a50c8162770da1d581ecf25c8cffac64520`, with no unresolved findings.
Parent and independent peer review approved the final changes.
- Real PostgreSQL 18.6 and a real Rust Runner exercise failed receipt
insertion, receiver-directory loss, replay from the same producer, and
exactly one 25-cent ledger charge. The actual accounting spool path
stays absent. Optional logs/traces are disabled. The provider is
controlled; no paid request is made and the fixture never pre-saves the
expected receipt.
- Producer checks passed 32 usage/provider tests,37 terminal controls,
corrected completion, all 3 previously failing exit cases, and both full
transport goal-continuation cases. Rejected active-goal completion
retains its 120-token tail before failure. Baseline 100→successor150→33
duplicate old snapshots→old120 retains explicit incomplete
reconciliation evidence and positive budget exposure.
- Heartbeat executor checks passed 982/982. PostgreSQL tests preserve
exact 1.002 USD pricing, the 100.2-cent ledger amount, budget holds,
source takeover, partial/final receipts, cost-only corrections, equal
rate-card replay, and stale-completion interleaving. Newer incomplete
usage remains pending rather than settling an older snapshot.
- Runtime replay and strict usage-schema checks passed 2/2; generated
contracts and Rust formatting pass. Test-partition contracts passed
32/32.
- [Final combined-head
evidence](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/18354#issuecomment-6531526158)
records full workspace typecheck/build and 41/41 accounting tests
against all five cloud PR heads, including this final accounting commit.
It includes commands and evidence limits.
- Exact-head CI is green: 53successful checks, 6intentional skips, and
the legacy Snyk status passed. Typecheck, build, Runner, server,
browser, and aggregate gates pass. Runner Vitest1/2 initially failed an
unchanged mocked Antigravity login fixture; its focused case passed
locally, then one unchanged job retry passed 131 files/1995 tests,
including all 11 Antigravity tests. The initial failed attempt remains
recorded in CI.

Initial local attempts exposed the host SysV semaphore limit and
corrected harness path, IPC readiness, and queue-counter defects. A
temporary test loader selected an existing POSIX-semaphore PostgreSQL
18.6 build without changing repository dependencies. An optional
expanded debug provider run was interrupted at its unrelated 8192-turn
rollover stress case; no full-file local pass is claimed. Required
failure cases were run directly, and the full Runner CI remains
required.

## Risks

- The guarantee covers built-in native remote Runner execution. Local
native execution, legacy adapters, external Dot/Muse execution, and
server-originated model calls retain their existing contracts.
- This does not provide traffic switching or general web-server
failover. The existing controller identity, checkpoint, and generation
gates still apply.
- The receipt JSON gains optional structured producer facts. No schema
migration or accounting S3 spool is added. Text output and raw trace
payloads are excluded.
- Codex accounting authority requires a Runner artifact built from this
provider baseline implementation and qualified by digest. Update
receivers and strict usage-schema readers before releasing that Runner;
PRP does not negotiate this payload field. Existing unmarked Codex
reports remain pending/unpriced. No deployed Runner artifact is claimed
fixed.
- Usage arriving beyond the bounded terminal tail may require manual
reconciliation or a fresh session. Its evidence remains in the existing
producer checkpoint/outbox; no adjustment ledger or recurring scan is
added.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` assisted with the implementation, tests, and
documentation through code execution and repository tools. The context
window size is unavailable.

DottaandPaperclip dbff3747b8 feat(server): persist run logs and provider traces in S3 (#18327)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Operators use run logs and restricted provider traces to inspect
agent work.
> - Local log and trace files depend on the web server's persistent
volume.
> - That dependency prevents overlapping volume-backed Railway
deployments.
> - This PR reuses the instance S3 store for batched log and trace
payloads with conditional publication.
> - Existing Postgres rows retain their contracts; native export
recovery reuses events already committed before Runner acknowledgement.
> - S3-configured servers automatically copy and verify retained history
before a later deployment cutover.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Server run logs, restricted provider traces, storage providers, and
migration tooling.

**Problem or motivation**

Replacing the web server and its disk must preserve committed log output
and retained traces. The current S3 mirror can repeatedly upload a
growing file. Moving those payloads into Postgres would add database
writes, WAL, replication, and backup work.

**Proposed solution**

Reuse the existing instance storage configuration, S3-compatible
provider and credential chain. Store new run logs under run-logs/ and
opted-in raw traces under provider-traces/, below the existing prefix.
Cloud keeps its existing bucket and bucket-scoped credentials per stack.
Add no new configuration switches. Store immutable payload segments and
bounded binary range indexes directly in S3. Publish each batch with an
ETag-conditional head. Keep existing database ownership and lifecycle
records. Recover canonical native exports from their existing validated
control event source, checkpointing export progress in S3. Add no new
payload writes to Postgres. Preserve local defaults and migrate settled
history with verified byte counts and digests.

**Alternatives considered**

Postgres payload chunks add control-plane load. Repeated whole-file
mirrors amplify transfer work. The first index prototype left superseded
index nodes; the final binary index keeps all normally published nodes
reachable.

**Roadmap alignment**

This is a storage prerequisite for replacing the main web/API server. It
does not enable deployment overlap, detach a volume, or change native
Runner protocol acknowledgements. The maintainer approved this
implementation scope. ROADMAP.md has no duplicate implementation item.

Related PR: #16770 improves the existing in-flight mirror. This PR
preserves that legacy backend and uses the existing instance S3 profile
for new journals.

## What Changed

- Automatically select S3 segments for new logs and opted-in traces when
instance file storage uses S3. Reuse bucket, endpoint, region, prefix,
path style and credentials. Remove separate backend switches. Keep
local-disk instances local.
- Share the existing storage configuration resolver with product files.
Preserve config-file settings, environment precedence and the existing
root prefix. Keep pre-existing run-log mirror settings for legacy
history.
- Add bounded buffering, conditional ownership fencing, immutable range
reads, stable byte offsets, and completion hashing.
- Dispatch all existing log consumers through the recorded backend.
Coalesce output progress writes and publish live log messages after
storage receipts.
- Recover interrupted canonical native exports from their existing
durable source. Exclude separate credential, cleanup, and reprojection
records. Replay missing callback ranges and deduplicate late delivery.
Repair settled archives after controller lease expiry. Bound shared
repair work and stop it when all readers cancel. Serve the published
prefix when best-effort repair fails.
- Add encrypted optional trace channels, replacement reads, durable
deletion tombstones, and deadline-driven local/external expiry cleanup
independently of heartbeat scheduling. Stream historical source and
remote verification. Propagate worker cancellation through trace open,
conditional-write probing, upload, restore and reads. Fence deletion
even before the first object head exists; abort and drain owned
captures.
- Retry transient storage errors, distinguish 409 from failed
preconditions, and backpressure bounded log admission. Track interrupted
trace imports explicitly so ordinary local deletion stays independent of
S3.
- Automatically migrate retained history through the existing delivery
coordinator. Process one log and one trace per batch. Retry unresolved
history with backoff and stop scans after completion. Keep the
inventory/import command as optional diagnosis and repair. Verify source
and remote bytes before switching references. Verify finalized native
size and digest before setting its export cursor. Require ordered source
coverage when completeness metadata is missing. Preserve original trace
expiry. Block active, missing, corrupt, and unproven sources.
- Preserve identity and run-secret redaction in live and recovered
native logs. Register runtime log redaction secrets once through the
existing encrypted registry. Keep agent private keys in their existing
owner.
- Add storage, migration, retention, UTF-8, and route-privacy coverage,
plus operating documentation and qualification tooling.
- Add no schema, payload table, per-record SQL, production dependency,
or lockfile change.

## Verification

- Final fixes at `b3a44c898e` passed all 116 selected startup,
retention, attribution and cancellation controls. The disabled-scheduler
cleanup and concurrent-repair defects reproduced red before the fixes. A
timed-out repair still prevents later storage reads.
- The merged source passed 124 storage and real-Postgres Cloud
configuration tests. These include automatic history migration, existing
environment/file vault keys, source-directory removal, five real-SDK
stalled-request cancellation cases, shared capability-probe cancellation
and multi-chunk trace ordering. Saved Cloud S3 settings work after the
legacy config file is gone.
- Workspace typecheck and full build passed at the merged parent
`19f702d780`. Server typecheck and build passed again at `b3a44c898e`.
- Actual app acceptance: finish a process-agent run through the normal
API, stage its retained local-file input, then restart. Automatic
migration reports one migrated item and zero blockers. Remove the
original web home and restart at `b3a44c898e` with an empty home, the
existing S3 profile and the existing vault key file. The normal log API
preserves all five producer lines and exactly 788 bytes, with SHA-256
`74d9ae469da28bfe89b9b50a0e132aec24fe9e6d686496ed5e4ffa6167151036`. No
log-specific storage settings are present.
- Actual expiry acceptance: with heartbeat scheduling disabled, a trace
remains unexpired after startup and later reaches its fixture deadline.
The worker marks the row deleted and tombstones both S3 channel heads.
The retained run log stays byte-identical. The process fixture emits no
provider protocol frames, so nonempty encrypted payloads are qualified
separately through the real SDK round trips.
- Isolation tests use identical run identities in two stack buckets.
Cleanup in one existing prefix leaves another prefix, another company
and product files intact. Read-only Cloud source inspection confirms a
bucket and bucket-scoped credentials per stack. Four existing Cloud
storage environment-contract tests passed. No Cloud provisioning changed
and no new live vendor permission probe was performed.
- Earlier qualification passed 1,014 affected storage/native tests and
27 privacy-route tests with isolated Docker Postgres. An abrupt process
test commits 1,000 records, receives receipts, dies by SIGKILL and loses
its directory; another process reads every byte and continues. The real
Rust Runner experiment acknowledges 32 records while the export cursor
is zero, then continues the same Runner PID after controller loss. All
64 records export once with exactly 64 existing control rows. Repeated
snapshot/Stop commands completed in 162/81 ms.
- Emulator workload: 1,000 burst records used two batch PUTs. Eight
steady streams produced 240 records with 104 conditional PUTs and 72
GETs over 6.9 seconds. These are synthetic operation counts, not fleet
sizing or provider prices.
- Failure evidence is retained. Compact native events over 64 KiB,
missing file-key support, disabled-scheduler retention and repair
failure handling all reproduced before their fixes. Fixture repairs
addressed cold module setup, localhost/IPC permissions, the S3
bucket-name limit and a mode-0700 crash-test directory. Full local `pnpm
test:run` was stopped after host PostgreSQL semaphore exhaustion;
affected suites used isolated Docker databases instead. Native package
library symlinks were restored with the package's standard hydration
helper.
- The `19f702d780` browser session-recovery case timed out while saving
a task title. All eight browser shards passed on `b3a44c898e`, including
that case, with no UI behavior or assertion change. Fresh-head CI passed
at `b3a44c898e`: 55 successful checks, three skipped checks and one
neutral check. The branch is conflict-free.
- Map and module-boundary checks passed. Current-head Greptile is 5/5
with zero unresolved review threads.

Reproduce the opt-in storage suites with
`PAPERCLIP_LOG_TEST_S3_ENDPOINT` and a dedicated
`PAPERCLIP_RUN_EVIDENCE_MIGRATION_DATABASE_URL` ending in `_test`. See
`doc/run-evidence-storage.md` for operating limits, automatic migration,
optional diagnostics and rollout qualification.

## Risks

- Keep the existing per-stack bucket, prefix and vault key stable across
replacements. Relocating that storage is a separate whole-instance
operation.
- This release automatically changes new log storage for existing
S3-configured instances. Local-disk instances remain local. Canonical
native source replay is qualified with a deterministic real Runner;
actual remote execution and production-provider qualification remain
rollout gates. Generic server-only diagnostics and optional raw trace
tails without a surviving source can be incomplete after a crash. This
does not establish full zero-downtime deployment.
- Before deploying this release, qualify the actual S3 provider. It must
enforce conditional writes and pass read, version, deletion, workload,
and latency qualification. A capability probe rejects providers which
ignore preconditions. Moto is emulator evidence only.
- Dirty output is bounded and unconfirmed until S3 publication. Storage
failure leaves persistence incomplete while task results and usage can
settle.
- Trace expiry is not yet represented by Cloud's external wake contract.
Outstanding trace deadlines conservatively block sleep.
- Automatic history copying requires the original source volume. Keep it
until all retained resources pass verified import and clean-filesystem
reads. Stop old binaries from creating new local-file runs. Missing or
corrupt history remains blocked and visible in server logs. Rollback
requires a compatible reader against the same external state. Ordinary
object deletion does not erase retained historical object versions or
backups.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, `gpt-6.1-sol`, with reasoning, tool use, code execution,
and browser verification. The runtime did not expose a context-window
size.

DottaandPaperclip ebd05e9f4c perf: avoid scanning unused provider pack trees during archive upload (#18340)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Native agents need verified provider files in remote sandboxes.
> - A fresh sandbox can need the bundled provider-pack archive.
> - The upload path also hashes the expanded controller tree, which it
does not upload.
> - That synchronous scan blocks the server event loop and delays other
requests.
> - This change verifies the archive source and the installed pack, and
keeps source-tree checks for directory uploads.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Provider-pack archive fallback scans and hashes the full expanded
controller tree before reading the build archive. The archive is the
source sent to the sandbox. The extra scan blocks the Node event loop
for several seconds. An overlapping asynchronous operation can then
appear to take as long as that scan.

**Expected behavior**

Verify the bytes used by the selected upload path. Keep full
verification of the installed pack against the selected manifest before
a provider can use it.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Use a packaged provider pack with a build archive.
2. Start a remote native run whose sandbox needs that pack.
3. Inspect `provider_pack.archive.verify` and event-loop delay on the
controller.

Related: #18308 adds timing detail for workspace preparation. A search
found no duplicate archive-verification fix.

## What Changed

- Use the verified archive without scanning the unused expanded
directory.
- Keep full directory verification when no archive exists or the remote
lacks archive support.
- Keep archive digest checks and full verification of installed bytes.
- Add `provider_pack.directory.verify` for directory fallback.
- Add regression cases for both archive formats, fallback, and final
verification failure.

## Verification

- Both archive regressions failed before the change and passed after it.
- 80 focused archive, selection, and verification cases pass on the
rebased branch.
- 20 native manifest and admission cases pass.
- Server typecheck, server build, and the runtime bundle pass.
- A disposable sandbox from the recorded image exercised the real
uploader and full installed-pack verifier. It accepted the unchanged
build bytes and rejected an altered proxy file. No model was called. The
sandbox was deleted and its absence was verified.
- A local baseline/archive/archive/baseline probe used the same
unchanged public build pack. Preparation took 30.673 s, 84 ms, 106 ms,
and 5.371 s. The slow baseline outlier is retained. This measures one
controller phase; it does not establish a whole-turn or hosted speedup.

## Risks

The archive path no longer checks expanded files that it does not send.
Archive checks still fail closed, and the installed files must pass the
same full manifest verification. Directory fallback keeps its
source-tree check. Installs without archives retain that synchronous
scan. The local sandbox probe tests upload and installed-content checks;
it does not qualify admission of an older pack by a newer controller.

## Model Used

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

Nicky LeachandClaude Opus 5.5 abc270ee4c fix(runner): attest upstream releases and bind ACPX uniformly for every harness (#18325)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native ACPX runs admit a provider only when its saved profile and
`commandDigest` match the current profile exactly.
> - For Copilot, Grok and Pi, `commandDigest` hashed dozens of Paperclip
source files. Claude, Codex, Cursor and Antigravity hash only their
upstream release.
> - Any change to a bound source therefore advanced these profiles.
#18212 alone moved Copilot from v88 to v91 and Grok from v15 to v19.
Each bump reset in-flight sessions and added immutable identity fixtures
(about 160 on master).
> - #18237 added the provider pack `contractDigest`, which now guards
Runner source compatibility at the pack boundary.
> - This pull request changes the Copilot, Grok and Pi digests to
upstream release attestations, as the other providers already use.
> - It also binds the shared ACPX layer the same way for every ACPX
harness: the profile's `acpxVersion` and the pack `contractDigest`,
which now covers the Runner's ACPX patch.
> - The benefit is that Runner source changes no longer reset these
sessions or need new profile versions and fixtures.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18237, #18212, #17972.

**What happened?**

A Runner change that touched a bound source file changed the Copilot,
Grok or Pi `commandDigest`. The author had to advance the profile
version, regenerate an identity fixture and keep every old fixture. On
deploy, saved sessions for that provider failed the exact admission
check and started fresh.

**Expected behavior**

A provider's `commandDigest` changes only when its upstream release
changes: an upstream version, a platform closure, the ACPX patch or the
Grok launcher. Runner source compatibility is the job of the pack
`contractDigest`.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. On master, change a comment in `src/drivers/acpx/runtime-host.ts`.
2. Run `node packages/paperclip-runner/scripts/grok-profile-identity.mjs
--check`.
3. The check fails. The Grok profile must advance, and the next deploy
resets Grok sessions.

## What Changed

- Add `packages/paperclip-runner/scripts/acpx-release-attestations.mjs`.
It computes the release attestation for each provider:
- Copilot and Pi: a canonical-JSON hash of the profile version, upstream
package versions and the platform closure pins (Pi also binds its Node
version).
- Grok: the SHA-256 of `launcher.cjs`. Admission already hashes these
bytes.
- The attestation binds no Paperclip source, shared ACPX layer, absolute
path, pack manifest digest or install layout.
- Bind the shared ACPX layer once for every ACPX harness (Claude, Codex,
Copilot, Cursor, Grok, Pi, Antigravity):
- Add the Runner's ACPX patch (`patches/acpx@<runner acpx
version>.patch`) to the pack `contractDigest`. A patch change now
retires older image packs for every harness. Other packages' ACPX
patches are not read. A build context without the Runner's patch fails.
- Remove the ACPX patch hash from Cursor's release declaration
(`cursor-contract.json`) and advance Cursor once to profile 17. Copilot,
Pi and Cursor no longer bind ACPX in their own digests, like Claude,
Codex, Grok and Antigravity.
- Saved inputs for every harness already must match the current
`acpxVersion`.
  - Claude and Codex digests do not change.
- `generate-acpx-profiles.mjs` writes these digests to
`acpx-profiles.json`. `check:acpx-profiles` refuses a stale digest.
- Move the Copilot closure pins to `copilot-closure-pins.ts`, so that
the generator can import them. `copilot-installation.ts` re-exports
them.
- Advance each profile once and then freeze it: Copilot 92, Grok 20, Pi
37. A version change at the switch keeps the rollout on the same path as
every earlier profile bump.
- Replace the historical version lists in `profile-compatibility.ts`
with a range. Every revision from 1 through the current one decodes.
Claude and Codex still decode revisions 1 through 5. Launch and recovery
admission still require the exact current profile and digest.
- Delete:
- `scripts/copilot-profile-identity.mjs`,
`scripts/grok-profile-identity.mjs` and its test
  - the Grok launcher source stamp
- 159 Copilot, Grok and Pi identity fixtures, including three
unreferenced `copilot-mainline-v*` fixtures. The Cursor fixtures stay.
- Rewrite the affected tests as behaviour checks:
- Each provider admits only the exact current profile. Every earlier
version decodes and is refused at admission.
- The last source-bound digests, and a changed digest at the current
version, are refused by recovery and by the backend factory.
- The Rust Pi descriptor test uses the generated profile instead of
fixtures.
- New `acpx-release-attestations.test.mjs`: a relocated copy of the
inputs gives the same digests, each upstream input changes only its own
providers, and the generator refreshes and checks the manifest.
- Remove the fixture exceptions from `.dockerignore`. Add the
attestation script and the generator to the Daytona image content
inputs.
- Update the Pi install probe and the Rust integration constant for the
new Pi digest.
- Update the docs to describe the current attestation model:
`doc/grok-native-runner.md`, `doc/RUNNER-INTEGRATION-PLAYBOOK.md`,
`doc/observability.md`,
`packages/paperclip-runner/docs/durable-recovery.md`, and the Copilot,
Pi and rich ACP architecture reports. Each report now opens with the
current profile identity; earlier source-bound profiles remain as dated
chronology. No doc references a deleted file.

## Verification

- In `packages/paperclip-runner`:
- `node --test scripts/acpx-release-attestations.test.mjs
scripts/contracts/contract-fingerprints.test.mjs`: 19 tests pass,
including a Runner ACPX patch edit that changes the contract digest,
other patch edits (including `acpx@0.12.0` for `adapter-utils`) that do
not, and a build context without the patch that fails.
  - `node scripts/generate-acpx-profiles.mjs --check` passes.
- `vitest run src/drivers/acpx src/backends src/contracts`: 1647 tests
pass, 9 skipped.
  - `tsc -p tsconfig.json --noEmit` passes.
- From the repository root, `vitest run --config
tests/runner-e2e/vitest.config.ts
tests/runner-e2e/daytona-image.test.ts`: 11 tests pass.
- In `server`, the 8 test files that use ACPX profiles, pack digests or
`contractDigest`: 1617 tests pass.
- Not run locally: the Rust tests and `cargo fmt`, because this machine
has no Rust toolchain. CI runs them.
- Before this change, a synthetic upgrade check built two Runner
revisions that differ only in shared source. A Claude checkpoint saved
under the first revision rebinds under the second, and a changed Claude
`commandDigest` starts fresh. This confirms that the provider JSON has
no other build-dependent field.

## Risks

- **One reset at rollout.** The Copilot, Grok, Pi and Cursor digests and
versions change once. Saved sessions for these providers start fresh on
their next run, as after any earlier profile bump. After this change,
Runner source changes no longer cause this reset.
- **Lost "source changed, so requalify" signal.** The old digest forced
a new profile version when bound source changed. Nothing enforced
requalification: Copilot was last qualified at v47. Pack-boundary
contract changes are now caught by the pack `contractDigest`.
- **Image packs are retired once for every provider.** Adding the ACPX
patch changes the pack `contractDigest`, so the controller uploads its
bundled pack (about 16 s per remote start) until images are refreshed.
Claude and Codex sessions are not reset: their digests and versions do
not change.
- **Grok launcher and closure pins.** The Grok digest covers only the
launcher bytes. Grok's runtime version is still checked separately at
admission, as before.
- **Grok digest equals early Grok profiles.** The launcher bytes have
not changed since profile 1, so the new Grok digest equals the published
profile 1 digest. The profile version still separates them: launch,
recovery and the backend factory require profile 20. An image pack from
that period has no `contractDigest`, so the pack gate refuses it.
`remote-provider-pack-verification.test.ts` now covers this case.
- **Docker context checks** run `generate-acpx-profiles.mjs --check`,
which now imports `.ts` pin files through Node type stripping.
`materialize-pi-distribution.mjs` already relies on this on Node 24.

DottaandPaperclip 75666224d4 fix(native): use the deadline for remote health retries (#18324)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agent work and its execution state.
> - Remote Runner processes use health reads to check their saved
process identity.
> - A failed health request cannot prove that the process stopped.
> - Three fast gateway errors can exhaust the old retry limit in half a
second.
> - The caller already gives these reads a shared 30-second recovery
budget.
> - This pull request uses that budget with backoff for read-only
failures.
> - A short gateway outage can then clear without stopping the existing
turn.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A transient HTTP 502 during sandbox process supervision caused an active
native Codex turn to fail. The probe stopped after three attempts, even
when most of its 30-second budget remained. The run reported
`notification_transport_failed` and required workspace recovery.

**Expected behavior**

Retry read-only transport failures within the existing deadline. Keep
process identity conflicts authoritative. Do not repeat a signal after a
lost acknowledgement.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a read-only process verification with a 30-second deadline.
2. Return HTTP 502 from its first three transport reads, then allow the
next read to succeed.
3. The old helper rejects after three reads. The fixed helper returns
the successful observation.

Related repairs: #16451 introduced bounded remote probes. #16835 and
#17799 require proof of process exit before replacement. This change
retains those guards.

## What Changed

- Use the existing absolute deadline instead of a three-attempt limit
for read-only probe failures.
- Back off from 250 milliseconds to two seconds. Clip each request to
ten seconds or the remaining budget.
- Preserve the original error and diagnostic when the deadline is
exhausted. Reject non-finite deadlines before an RPC.
- Add a red/green regression and a repeated-gateway-failure case around
a real listening process.
- Update execution semantics and both recovery maps.

## Verification

- Before the fix: the new probe suite failed two behavioral assertions.
The gateway case returned its HTTP 502 error instead of the later
successful observation.
- After the fix: 75 focused probe, diagnostic, process-supervision and
adoption tests pass. The diagnostic failure tests use a controlled clock
for their full 30-second budget. Their error and redaction assertions
stay unchanged.
- Map alignment and module-boundary checks pass.
- Full workspace typecheck and build pass at final commit
`ddd42f66378ebc36ec1d7e0ca1f45943473561b3`.
- The broader affected suite against disposable PostgreSQL passed 994 of
997 tests; its three startup/database timeouts passed unchanged in
isolation. The initial full default local run encountered embedded
PostgreSQL startup failures and did not complete. The four diagnostic
tests that assumed the old short retry timing now use a controlled clock
without weakening their assertions.
- Incident evidence came from Linux AMD64, Node 24.22.2, Core commit
`0c70cedce9a803bdc201324528abb35e423e7cd0`, native Codex `gpt-6.1-sol`,
and a shared ChatGPT subscription. Two separate runs recorded the same
supervision HTTP 502 within one second.
- A disposable live Daytona sandbox check passed on Linux x86_64 and
Node 24.22.1. Three injected gateway failures recovered in 3.31 seconds
on production source from `e54a355fa179022caaa6854302ff56bd85de0229`
(unchanged by the final test-only commit). The real Node listening
process had one launch, retained its exact identity and saved file
across a second read, and produced a confirmed Stop receipt. Sandbox
deletion succeeded. This is process-supervision integration evidence,
not a Codex task or model execution.
- Fixed-revision hosted acceptance and recovery of the original
conversation require rollout. This PR does not claim either. The
duration of the original provider outage remains unknown.

- Final commit `ddd42f66378ebc36ec1d7e0ca1f45943473561b3`: required `ci
/ verify` and `ci / e2e` checks pass; Greptile is 5/5 with no inline
findings. The separate Paperclip Review service has not completed an
assessment and remains queued. It is not a required branch check.

## Risks

- Persistent fast transport failures cause more read-only requests
within the same deadline. Capped backoff limits their rate.
- Missing or changed identity still returns immediately. Failed health
reads still cannot authorize replacement, process signals, or provider
replay.
- Signal requests still have one attempt. The timeout budget and
execution permissions do not change.
- No schema or package changes.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-6, through Codex, with reasoning, repository inspection,
and shell tool use. The exact deployment model ID and context-window
size are not exposed by this session.

e345b9217d fix(runner): paginate native task searches without hidden truncation (#18282)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native agents search tasks to find work that already exists.
> - The search schema permits 200 results, but the server returns at
most 100.
> - The response does not tell the agent that more results exist.
> - This pull request adds pages and reports the page size and
continuation cursor.
> - Agents can read the full accessible inventory before they decide
that a task does not exist.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A native `search_tasks` request with `limit: 200` returns only 100
tasks. Historical scans recovered 167 and 173 tasks with status
partitions. This proves missing inventory and extra work. It does not
prove duplicate task creation.

**Expected behavior**

Honor the declared limit. Report more results and give the caller a
continuation cursor.

**Steps to reproduce**

Create 205 matching tasks in a test company. Call `search_tasks` with
`limit: 200`. The baseline returns 100. The fixed path returns 200, then
five when the caller uses `nextCursor`.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Baseline: `81ebe479e8db8a3d59c86cdfb894bd917734492f`.

Related changes: #16979 changes UI status filters before pagination.
#13699 adds public task URLs. Neither repairs this native limit. An
exact `search_tasks` plus pagination PR search returned no result.

Pattern: [Task searches omit cases beyond the first
hundred](https://www.braintrust.dev/app/Paperclip/p/Paperclip%20Staging/patterns/c20462d6-05fd-4862-bfbd-7bec1f2bc159).

### Hypothesis and thesis for a fix

The native authority uses `boundedLimit` with its default maximum of
100. The tool schema permits 200. The response contains only `tasks`.
The raw request and result counts agree with this cause.

Fix the native authority and its canonical tool contract. Keep the
existing `tasks` field. Add `limit`, `returnedCount`, `hasMore` and
`nextCursor`. Use ascending task IDs so task activity does not move
results between pages. Apply current company, privacy and Muse read
checks before each page. A cursor grants no access. Callers must keep
the same filters and read every page. Concurrent task changes require a
fresh scan.

## What Changed

- Honor the native search limit of 1 to 200, with a default of 50.
- Add ID cursor pagination and page metadata.
- Describe complete inventory reads in the tool contract and access map.
- Refresh the generated semantic contracts and seeded catalog identity.
- Add regression coverage for complete inventories and access-filtered
pages.

## Verification

- Red: the database integration test requested 200 of 205 persisted
tasks. Baseline returned 100.
- Green: the same regression returns pages of 200 and five without
duplicate IDs.
- The native authority and Muse suites cover company exclusion, status
filters, empty pages, invalid cursors and readable-only metadata.
- Command: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/paperclip-runner-tool-authority.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/muse-native-visibility.test.ts`.
- The test uses the real run-bound native authority and disposable
PostgreSQL. It does not use an external model or change a deployed
scanner.
- Both native authority and Muse suites pass: 71 tests. Server direct
`tsc --noEmit`, Runner `typecheck:typescript`, `node
scripts/check-maps.mjs` and generated semantic contract checks pass.
- Full typecheck and build cannot finish here because `cargo` is absent.
The full local test command was stopped after about five minutes when
the complete CI matrix was running. It has no complete verdict.
Current-head CI passed, including typecheck, build, all
general/serialized/Runner test suites and E2E. Greptile is 5/5 with no
actionable findings at `392cb7424a1fa0ec73401d5e8a10a22b504fde32`.
Optional Storybook and manual Docker workflows were skipped and are not
executed coverage. The success-example correction also passed all 82
contract tests locally.

## Risks

Task order changes to ascending ID. Pagination is not a snapshot. New or
changed tasks can require a fresh scan. Each page retains the existing
full company-list read and Muse authorization cost. This change adds no
database query loop or new background work. Existing callers can still
read `tasks`, but must follow `nextCursor` for a complete inventory. No
scanner implementation was supplied. No migration or deployment is
included.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with tool use and code execution. The exact
provider deployment ID and context limit are not exposed in this
session.

Devin FoleyandClaude Opus 5.5 2a221e8e80 fix(sentry): keep scheduled native model capacity retries out of run-failure reports (#18295)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The run-failure reporter sends terminal run failures to Sentry when
an operator sets `PAPERCLIP_SENTRY_RUN_FAILURES=unexpected`
> - In `unexpected` mode, the reporter skips failures that a bounded
automatic retry already owns. The Codex ACP model capacity failure
(`codex_transient_upstream`) is one of these
> - The native runner has the same capacity failure: Codex
`serverOverloaded` ("Selected model is at capacity"). Native
finalization schedules a bounded automatic retry for it (#15347)
> - The reporter has no matching exclusion for the native path. Each
scheduled capacity retry also sends a Sentry error, even when the retry
recovers the task
> - This pull request skips the report only when the native failure has
typed capacity evidence, a committed retry decision, and the retry run
that the decision created
> - The benefit is that Sentry shows capacity failures only when
automatic recovery stops (retries are exhausted, held, or not scheduled)

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15347 (native capacity retry). Refs #16407 (Codex ACP capacity
exclusion).

**What happened?**
A native Codex run failed with "Selected model is at capacity. Please
try a different model." (`native_provider_overloaded`). Native
finalization scheduled the automatic capacity retry. The retry run
succeeded and the task completed. The run-failure reporter still sent a
Sentry error event for the first run.

**Expected behavior**
When the automatic capacity retry owns recovery, the run failure stays
in the local run log and does not go to Sentry. This is the same as the
Codex ACP capacity path. When retries are exhausted or held, or when no
retry is scheduled, the failure goes to Sentry.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Set `PAPERCLIP_SENTRY_RUN_FAILURES=unexpected` with a backend Sentry
DSN.
2. Run a native Codex agent turn that ends with a Codex
`serverOverloaded` terminal error.
3. See that native finalization creates a `scheduled_retry` run with
`scheduledRetryReason=native_provider_overloaded`.
4. See that Sentry also receives a run-failure event for the failed run.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/run-failure-report.ts`: add
`isScheduledNativeCapacityRetry`. In `unexpected` mode it skips the
report only when all of these are true:
- the run is native, `failed`, has
`errorCode=native_provider_overloaded`, and has a native task
(`nativeIssueId`);
- `resultJson.nativeProviderFailure` is the closed
`codex`/`server_overloaded` diagnostic;
- `resultJson.finalizationPhase` is `committed` and
`finalizationReasonCode` is `native_provider_overloaded`;
  - the report is not from setup, and the run has no signal;
- a successor run for the same task exists with `retryOfRunId=run.id`
and `scheduledRetryReason=native_provider_overloaded`. The same status
transaction creates this run.
- The successor lookup filters on `company_id`, `context_snapshot ->>
'issueId'` and `created_at >= run.createdAt`, so the existing
`heartbeat_runs_company_ctx_issue_created_idx` bounds it to that task's
runs since the failure. No migration is needed.
- A failed read of the retry evidence logs a warning and reports the
failure.
- `doc/observability.md`: document the new exclusion in the run failure
context section.
- Unit tests: the exclusion, and twelve cases that must still report
(exhausted, held, no retry run, another retry lane, successor for
another task, run with no native task, finalization not committed, wrong
or missing diagnostic, legacy run, signal, timeout). Also setup phase,
`all` mode, and an unreadable retry record.
- Integration test (real native finalizer): no Sentry event for retries
1 and 2, one event when retries are exhausted, and one event when
reassignment prevents a retry.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/services/__tests__/run-failure-report.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/native-provider-overload.integration.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/native-provider-failure.test.ts
src/services/__tests__/status-arbiter.test.ts`: 359 tests pass.
- Red/green: before the fix, the new unit test captured 2 events, and
the integration test captured an event on the first scheduled retry.
After the fix, both pass.
- `EXPLAIN` on the migrated schema: `Index Scan using
heartbeat_runs_company_ctx_issue_created_idx` with company, context
issue and created time in `Index Cond`.
- CI provides the full workspace typecheck.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change applies only in `unexpected` mode and only to
native runs with typed capacity evidence and an existing retry run.
`all` mode still reports every failure.
- The check adds one index-bounded read of `heartbeat_runs` for runs
that match the in-memory capacity checks. Other runs do not do this
read.
- If a scheduled retry later fails, that retry run reports its own
outcome. When retries are exhausted, the final failure reports.

DottaandPaperclip 965184d296 fix(runner): reuse accepted confirmations on native continuation (#18283)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip coordinates agent work and human decisions.
> - Native agents receive accepted confirmations when their task
resumes.
> - A resumed run can repeat the original confirmation with the same key
and scope.
> - The interaction service rejects that replay because the source run
changed.
> - This PR returns the original acceptance only to its bound native
continuation.
> - Changed requests and newer proposals keep their existing approval
gates.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A native agent received a human acceptance, then repeated the same
confirmation key and request. Paperclip returned a conflict because
`sourceRunId` differed. The agent then used a new key and created a
second pending confirmation. The task waited for another answer.

**Expected behavior**

An exact replay from the native run that received the accepted response
returns the original accepted record. It creates no request or wake.
Changed scope, another creator, an unrelated continuation, and a newer
proposal must still fail.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create a confirmation from a native run.
2. Accept it as a human.
3. Resume the same task with that accepted response in its saved native
input.
4. Repeat the original confirmation key and request.

Before this fix, step 4 returns `409 Interaction idempotency key already
exists for a different request`.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced against source `81ebe479`. The deployed failure was also
confirmed against Core `6a674716`.

**Deployment mode**

The failure occurred on Cloud. The regression uses the real native tool
authority and PostgreSQL 17 with synthetic data. The full fresh Cloud
journey is not yet verified with this fix.

No duplicate open PR or issue was found in the related
confirmation-replay and interaction-idempotency searches.

## What Changed

- Let the current run's parsed, identity-bound accepted response
nominate an internal replay of a plain confirmation or checkbox. Exclude
governed tool, secret, connection, and quality-review cards.
- Reuse the original accepted record only when the key, creator, and
full normalized request match. Preserve its source run. Reject a newer
confirmation.
- Keep ordinary source-run comparison and mutation receipts. Recheck
accepted cross-run reuse on cached calls and lost-ack recovery. An
absent original cannot create a replacement.
- Add real database regressions and document the replay contract.

## Verification

- Real PostgreSQL regression: the original replay failed with the
observed conflict, then passed.
- Cached replay regressions: two controls first returned stale
acceptance. Both now reject it.
- Final replay and recovery suite: 27 passed. This covers both plain and
checkbox confirmations, governed-payload exclusion, identity, company,
request changes, newer proposals, revised plans, absent receipts, absent
originals, and tool-key conflicts.
- Existing native-tool and onboarding admission suites passed with the
first 24 replay controls: 109 tests at `3cfd58e7`. The scope follow-up
reran all 27 replay controls.
- Existing interaction service and policy suites: 122 passed.
- Full `pnpm build` and `pnpm -r typecheck` passed at `3cfd58e7`. After
the scope follow-up, the focused 27 tests and server TypeScript check
passed. Required full Linux CI passed on the final head `eabdbd6b`.
- The full local Vitest suite was not repeated because the macOS
embedded PostgreSQL bootstrap failure is already documented. Relevant
suites used the supported external test database paths. Required Linux
CI remains pending.
- Final-head CI attempt 1 failed only the unchanged Antigravity login
success fixture. Its implementation and test match a previous passing
head. The exact failure cause is not retained. The original [failed
job](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41014308876/job/123927423551)
is preserved. The one failed-jobs-only retry request passed on the
unchanged final head. This confirms recovery, not the cause of the
original failure, and is separate from the Cloud journey.
- Full fresh Cloud onboarding and its dependent journey remain
unverified at this revision.

## Risks

An approval replay must not authorize new work. The service keeps exact
request and creator checks under the task lock. Newer confirmations and
ordinary downstream task and target checks remain effective. Normal API
callers cannot supply the internal replay nomination. No database
migration or public request-schema change is included.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol`, ultra reasoning, with repository and shell tools.
The parent runtime metadata supplies this model identity. The context
window is not exposed. Independent review used the same model family.

Nicky LeachandClaude Opus 5.5 fa760dbce4 fix(runner): reuse image packs only with matching contract digest (#18237)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Remote native runs use a provider pack. The controller reuses a
protected pack from the sandbox image when the pack is compatible.
> - #17749 gates this reuse on a hand-maintained interface revision in
`provider-pack-contract.json`.
> - Later changes altered the runner/pack boundary (#17922, #18188), but
nobody bumped the revision. A stale Claude or Codex image pack can still
be reused across a sidecar contract change. This is the failure class of
#17972.
> - A manual revision has a "forgot to bump" failure mode. Source-byte
hashes change on every refactor, so they are too brittle.
> - This pull request declares the sidecar `session.open` contract in
its JSON schema and computes a contract digest from the JSON contracts
and Rust shapes.
> - Image-pack reuse now requires an equal digest.
> - The benefit is that an incidental change keeps image packs reusable,
and a real contract change retires them automatically.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17749, #17972, #17922, #18188.

**What happened?**

The controller reused an image provider pack when `compatibility.acpx`
and the selected agent's profile digest matched. For Claude and Codex,
that profile digest binds only the upstream executable. The ACPX
interface revision stayed at 1 after later sidecar contract changes. A
pack built before those changes passed the reuse check.

**Expected behavior**

The controller reuses an image pack only when the pack uses the same
runner/pack contracts as the controller's bundled pack. Comments,
formatting and refactors do not change that result.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Build an image pack from a commit before a sidecar input change, such
as a new `session.open` field.
2. Run a controller from a later commit that sends the new field, with
the same interface revision and Claude version.
3. Before this fix, `verifyRemoteProviderPack` accepts the old image
pack.

## What Changed

- Declare the sidecar `session.open` parameter set as a closed
`sessionOpenParams` definition in `acpx-sidecar.schema.json`.
- `generate-acpx-sidecar-contract.mjs` now generates
`GENERATED_ACPX_SIDECAR_OPEN_PARAMS` from it.
- `parseOpenParams` uses the generated list instead of an inline `Set`.
The accepted set is unchanged.
- This is the surface of #17972. The schema is now its source of truth.
- Declare the nested `session.open` contracts that the sidecar parses
strictly:
- `protocol/provider-schemas/runtime-context.schema.json` closes every
runtime context object. `parseNativeRuntimeContext` uses the field lists
that `scripts/generate-runtime-context-contract.mjs` generates from it.
- The sidecar schema declares the closed `providerPolicy` object, and
`parseProviderPolicy` uses its generated field list.
  - The accepted fields do not change.
- Add
`packages/paperclip-runner/scripts/contracts/contract-fingerprints.mjs`.
It fingerprints these contracts:
  - the PRP and sidecar JSON schemas, with annotation text removed
  - the generated catalogs in `generated/`
- the Rust serde shapes, `json!` payload keys, match literals and env
keys in `runner-core/src`, without test-only modules
  - the reserved env key lists in `configured_environment.rs`
- Read only the trees that every pack build context contains. Fail when
a registered source is missing, so two build contexts cannot silently
produce different digests.
- Use only Node built-ins. The registry adds no dependency.
- Write `contractDigest` as a top-level payload field in
`build-provider-pack.mjs`. The manifest digest algorithm and the
existing field layout do not change.
- Require an equal `contractDigest` for image-pack reuse in
`remote-provider-pack-verification.ts`. A pack without a digest is not
reused. The controller uploads its bundled pack, as it does today for
any incompatible pack.
- Re-attest the source-hashed profiles, because this PR changes their
bound sidecar sources:
- Grok becomes profile 15 and now also binds the generated allowlist, so
a Grok field change in the schema still invalidates the Grok identity.
- Copilot becomes profile 88, and also binds the generated runtime
context fields.
  - Earlier profiles stay decodable.
- Add the registry script and `generated/` to the Daytona image content
inputs.
- Document the digest and the schema-first rule in
`docker/daytona-runner/README.md` and `doc/DEVELOPING.md`.

## Verification

- `node --test scripts/contracts/contract-fingerprints.test.mjs` (in
`packages/paperclip-runner`): 4 tests pass.
  - These changes keep the digest:
    - schema description text
    - schema reformatting
    - renaming `parseOpenParams`
    - Rust comments, `#[serde(skip)]` fields and `#[cfg(test)]` modules
- edits to the `#[path]` test module `tests/provider_api_validation.rs`
  - These changes alter the digest:
    - a new `session.open` schema field
    - a changed constraint on the `remainingWork[].description` property
    - a new reserved env key
    - a new sidecar env key
    - a new checkpoint field
  - A build context without a registered source fails.
- `node --test test/acpx-sidecar-contract.test.mjs`: 13 tests pass. A
new case rejects an unknown `session.open` parameter and accepts each
declared parameter.
- `node --test scripts/grok-profile-identity.test.mjs`: 4 tests pass. A
change to the Grok field in the generated allowlist invalidates the Grok
identity.
- `generate-acpx-profiles.mjs --check`,
`generate-acpx-sidecar-contract.mjs --check` and
`generate-protocol-manifest.mjs --check` pass.
- Runner vitest suites pass: 470 passed, 1 skipped. They cover the
sidecar, sidecar input and protocol, Copilot and Pi installation,
profile compatibility, native execution, recovery identity, the backend
factory and the environment.
- Server tests: pack verification, executor and artifact preparation
pass (1,004 tests).
- `tsc --noEmit` passes for `packages/paperclip-runner` and `server`.
- `tests/runner-e2e/daytona-image.test.ts`: 10 of 11 tests pass. The
failing test also fails on `master`. It expects a literal
`profile-v19-identity.json` line in `.dockerignore`, which uses a
`profile-v*` glob.
- Not run locally:
- A complete `build-provider-pack.mjs` run. The builder rejects the
local Homebrew Node because it is not portable after relocation.
- Rust tests and `acpx-controller-recovery.test.ts`, because `cargo` is
not installed.
  - The full `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm test:run` and `pnpm build`.

## Risks

- Only JSON contracts and Rust shapes are part of the digest. The
remaining TypeScript-only definitions are the `paperclip_finish` and
`paperclip_block` tool schemas in `completion-result.ts` and the
TypeScript env key lists. They are not covered until they move into a
schema. The nested `expectedIdentity` and `tools` values ignore unknown
fields, so a change there cannot cause a startup rejection.
- A change there can let a stale image pack be reused. The sidecar then
rejects the input with its strict parser error.
  - Today, Claude and Codex image packs have no contract check at all.
- The digest covers all registered contracts for the whole pack. A
contract change for one provider kind also retires image packs for the
other. Each replacement costs about 16 s per remote start until the
image is refreshed.
- Existing image packs have no digest. After deploy, the controller
uploads its bundled pack until the image is rebuilt.
- The Grok and Copilot re-attestations start fresh sessions for those
agents once after deploy, as each profile bump does today.
- The Daytona image content ID formula changes, so the next image build
does not reuse a cached image.

DottaandPaperclip ed8fae8dbb fix(workspaces): preserve completed shallow sandbox exports (#18221)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip coordinates agent work and preserves its results.
> - Remote execution copies completed workspace changes back to the
host.
> - An agent can fetch a published branch with shallow Git history.
> - A full Git bundle omits the shallow boundary metadata and can fail
host connectivity checks.
> - This pull request carries the boundaries through the full-bundle
fallback and imports through normal Git fetch.
> - Recovery must also recognize completed native work on a reusable
lease without treating it as ordinary executor reuse.
> - Completed work can be saved without another provider turn, while
existing host history remains connected.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
Sandbox finalization can fail with a missing parent commit after an
agent checks out a separately fetched shallow branch. Re-exporting a
full bundle repeats the failure because Git bundles do not encode
shallow boundaries.

**Expected behavior**
Import the completed branch and saved files. Preserve existing host
ancestry and concurrent host edits. Keep normal Git connectivity and
workspace merge checks.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Prepare a sandbox from one host commit.
2. Fetch a different published branch with depth one and check it out.
3. Save a result file and restore the sandbox workspace.

**Paperclip version or commit**
Reproduced against master before this repair. The regression fails with
the missing-parent error before the production change.

Related public context: #15268 covers rewritten history integration.
This repair handles shallow bundle transport before integration.
Searches found no equivalent open repair.

## What Changed

- Export shallow boundaries beside the full bundle when the delta import
lacks history.
- Unpack into a temporary shared bare repository. Keep parent
connections already available on the host and import with Git's shallow
fetch protocol.
- Reject malformed boundary values and retain existing connectivity,
branch, and concurrent-work merge guards. Keep boundary probes within 15
seconds without consuming the separate 60-second Git import budget.
- Let source-bound preservation recover reusable leases only for the
finalizer-selected, accepted successful native result and matching
completion contract. Retain provider-stop, physical ownership and
host-writer checks; ordinary reusable sources remain blocked.
- Classify invalid Git metadata separately from omittable unsafe
archives. Keep native finalization failed and preserve service-owned
file recovery; carry the sender's dedicated rejection across the command
boundary without transient retries.
- Share the failure allowlist across bounded run/activity projections
and cancelled-preservation selection. Migration `0416` rebuilds the
matching partial index; task chat retains the non-retryable recovery
notice.
- Add real Git, filesystem sandbox and database recovery regressions.
Update execution semantics and affected verification maps.

## Verification

- Red: real filesystem sandbox restore failed with the same
missing-parent/revision-walk error before the export repair.
- Green: 240 focused Git, workspace restore, sandbox transport and
native-finalization tests pass. Coverage includes both transfer paths,
malformed/oversized metadata, a genuinely shallow host with its original
boundary intact, and concurrent host work with both merge parents
verified.
- Red/green: a 14-second simulated probe left the final real Git fetch
only 45,893 ms before the budget split. It now retains over 55 seconds
after the probes; a 16-second probe exhausts its own budget before host
import.
- Red/green: an oversized read progress report was retried three times
before its distinct metadata classification. It now aborts the first
read before payload consumption, leaves the host tip unchanged and does
not retry.
- Red/green: the real metadata error was swallowed by best-effort export
and native finalization incorrectly returned success. Both regressions
now pass; all 240 focused Git/restore/native-finalization tests pass. A
PostgreSQL/filesystem fault-injection test also verifies retained files,
failed run, service-owned recovery barrier, no preservation receipt and
no new wake.
- Red/green: duplicate metadata produced 47 Git process starts before
deduplication; the bounded-work regression now passes. Oversized byte
and boundary inputs fail before Git probes.
- Recovery red: both reusable lease policies exhausted recovery despite
a selected accepted successful result. The assembled
PostgreSQL/filesystem path now passes for retained and both reusable
policies, including idempotent re-admission after exhausted automatic
recovery, saved files, no agent wake, and once-only existing-result
finalization.
- Source verification controls reject ordinary reusable leases,
rejected/failed/unselected results, another physical allocation owner,
and an active host writer without changing recorded state.
- The 78-test PostgreSQL/filesystem recovery/source suite passed before
the metadata classification correction. Its new persisted
metadata-failure regression also passes. Full workspace typecheck and
build pass at final head `69f10daab2`.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` and `git diff --check` pass.
- Full local `pnpm test:run` attempts did not finish. They are not
counted as passes. Early focused runs exceeded 5-second and 30-second
fixture deadlines; the final serial suite passed all 176 tests with a
30-second per-test budget in 56.8 seconds.
- Red/green: both bounded PostgreSQL projections dropped the new code in
oversized results. All 19 source/projection cases now pass, plus an
actual index-predicate test that excludes a metadata repair hold and
still selects ordinary cancelled work.
- Red/green: an oversized sender `.git/shallow` lost its error type
before host validation. The real transport test now verifies one typed
rejection, no shallow-payload read, and an unchanged host tip. All 465
command/sandbox/task-chat tests pass, and token/migration gates pass.
- Full typecheck/build pass after these final contract corrections at
`69f10daab2`; all 20 PostgreSQL source/projection/index contracts pass.
All current-head CI checks passed; Greptile is 5/5 with no unresolved
review threads. Merged #18230 supplies the CI-cache and Linux
shell-fixture baseline repairs; their duplicate changes have been
removed from this PR. The final Runner lane passed after one justified
rerun of an unchanged authentication fixture timeout (all 11 fixture
tests also pass locally). Previous CI failures and incomplete local runs
remain recorded; live deployment and retained-run recovery remain
separate verification.

## Risks

- The fallback creates a temporary shared bare clone. Metadata is
limited to 64 KiB and 256 unique boundaries, duplicate/parent probes are
cached, and Git import has a 60-second command budget plus a separate
15-second boundary-probe budget. It runs only after a missing-history
import failure.
- Incorrect boundaries could hide real host ancestry. The importer
retains available parent connections, and regressions cover that case.
- The full-bundle fallback can transfer a bundle twice. This preserves
the existing fast delta path; removing that extra transfer is outside
this correctness repair.
- Preservation eligibility expands only for completed native exports on
reusable leases. It creates no provider turn and leaves ordinary
reusable leases ineligible. Database/filesystem regressions cover result
selection and competing physical/host ownership.
- The migration rebuilds one partial index; no tables, columns or user
records change. There are no agent execution admission, model, trust,
recovery permission, workflow or lockfile changes.

## Model Used

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 1d571de5f9 Add shared native turn attribution boundaries (#18213)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages work performed by AI agents.
> - Native execution crosses the plugin worker, Runner, sidecar, and
durable event boundaries.
> - Existing outer spans leave repeated preparation and admission work
unattributed.
> - Optimizations need a common baseline with accurate ownership and
event meanings.
> - This change extends the existing opt-in tracing contract with
bounded timing receipts.
> - It preserves execution policy and keeps provider internals opaque
where the API provides no timing proof.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
Attribution of native task preparation, retained/cold Runner handoff,
and completion-to-text work.

**Current behavior**
Worker spans use a flat provider contract. Workspace calls lack a
consistent dispatch envelope. Submitted-to-started timing is named as a
provider queue even though it includes other work. The transport does
not expose a shared breakdown of its waits.

**Proposed improvement**
Add invocation-scoped nesting, bounded numeric remote receipts,
current-run transport timing, durable receipt intervals, and distinct
completion/text milestones. Reuse the existing exporter. No latency
optimization is included.

Related public work: #17842 consolidates existing startup tracing tests;
it does not add this runtime coverage.

## What Changed

- Extend the optional SDK tracer with nested async scopes and completed
timing receipts. Keep the host responsible for parent identity,
capability checks, attributes, clocks, depth, and count limits.
- Add dispatch and bounded host-read timings for environment and
workspace providers.
- Resolve transport parents on each call so retained sessions do not
retain an earlier run's trace.
- Split cold/resume/attach/prepare/registration/command/started-event
waits. Add opt-in numeric ACPX Runner/sidecar status and prompt-start
receipts.
- Distinguish first completion request, validated tool receipt, final
result commit, first nonempty text, and event persistence. Rename the
submitted-to-started interval to match its meaning.
- Link completed earlier remote lifecycles to their host-owned observer
rather than placing them under a later polling request. Preserve
sampling, timestamp limits and budgets.
- Document the versioned coverage map, causal clock limits, and baseline
acceptance requirements.

## Verification

- Current head: GitHub CI is fully green. Standard Greptile and Apex are
both 5/5, with no unresolved review threads. Full-suite validation was
performed in CI; follow-up local validation was limited to affected
packages and tests.

- Review follow-up: early rejection, missing provider capability and
startup-parent regressions were reproduced and fixed. The affected
worker/SDK/timing set passes 128 tests; 28 timing/context tests, SDK
typecheck and direct server TypeScript checking pass. The server
typecheck wrapper reached an unrelated Runner rebuild and stopped
because Cargo was absent from PATH; full Runner/image validation remains
in CI.

- CI failure accounting: the earlier Turbo cache/force conflict and
Linux OpenCode shell assertion were reproduced and diagnosed. A direct
proc probe ruled out permissions; a portable shell comparison identified
Bash skipping BASH_ENV with stripped SHLVL and socket stdin. Upstream
#18230 now supplies the CI and ignored-stdin fixture fixes; this PR
adopts them without duplicate CI changes. The strict Linux OOM assertion
passed before this source-equivalent merge.
- Retry follow-up: the three insertion/replay/failure timing cases and
server typecheck pass. The existing database regression now asserts a
single marker across identical result replay; the current-head CI
integration gate passes.
- Upstream CI alignment: all three real-Turbo 2.11.10 integration cases
pass. The repository policy gate rejected committing a generated
lockfile; the final PR contains no lockfile edit and uses the maintained
inline stale-lockfile recovery.
- Linked-lifecycle follow-up: 44 focused host/export tests pass (three
optional SDK-dependent cases skip); SDK and server typechecks pass. The
API contract test verifies an explicit root context, host-owned observer
link and unsampled suppression.
- SDK typecheck and focused worker/invocation tests: 30 passed,
including clock changes, bounded legacy IPC, and manual-span
creation-scope parentage.
- Focused reviewed host/native/transaction-boundary checks: 44 passed.
The 86-test worker-manager suite passes after updating its exact
assertions for the host-owned timing budget found by CI. Earlier
preparation/first-text checks also passed.
- Affected server and Runner TypeScript checks pass after building local
workspace declarations.
- Merge follow-up: the profile/candidate startup subset passes 94 tests,
the four Grok source-identity checks pass, and Runner TypeScript
checking passes. A subsequent execution-factory merge passes 21 focused
timing/trace tests and server TypeScript checking.
- Pinned Rust build and the ACPX Rust subset pass. The hostile receipt
projection test passes. Source profile compatibility checks: 127 passed,
one existing skip. Grok identity checks: four passed.
- Broad transport/ACPX suite: 410 passed after building all fake
provider binaries. Earlier attempts failed on missing
Runner/fake-provider outputs; building the required fixtures resolved
those failures.
- The first CI run correctly rejected stale source attestations. After
integrating current master, Grok advances 13→14 and Copilot 84→85;
master’s historical fixtures and Pi 35 stay byte-identical. Provider
dependencies, models and permission defaults are unchanged. Identity
generation/checks now pass.
- The added real-Postgres result lock regression could not initialize
its local embedded cluster. The insertion/replay/failure unit
regressions pass. The current-head CI integration gate passes.
- Comprehensive repository checks and image builds are delegated to CI,
as requested for this instrumentation pass. No deployment, model run,
collector-ingestion proof, or latency improvement is claimed.

## Risks

The new SDK methods are optional. Legacy span calls and endpoint-off
behavior remain supported. The host accepts only closed timing names and
bounded attributes. Remote durations are anchored at local receipt;
transport/scheduling uncertainty remains explicit. Trace trees have
count/depth limits. The first rollout must inspect actual collector
exports before treating the baseline as accepted. Fresh live
qualification for the new source identities remains a rollout
requirement. Revert these commits to remove the new measurements; no
schema migration is required.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning and local code/tool
execution. The exact runtime model ID and context-window size are not
exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 2aa3ea47e3 Reduce restored workspace overhead and trace cache publication (#18240)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip runs agents in isolated workspaces.
> - A native sandbox turn must restore its workspace before the provider
starts.
> - Restored Git metadata can cause expensive work in the provider's
first snapshot.
> - Cache replay also hashes the same archives twice, and workspace
helpers open sessions that do not need output.
> - This pull request removes that repeated work and refreshes the
restored index before OpenCode starts.
> - It also adds cache-publication timings so the next measurement can
separate quota checks, lock waiting, and archive IO.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Native sandbox workspace preparation and copyback.

**Current behavior**

Cache replay validates shared archives, copies them, and validates them
again. Exit-status-only helpers use persistent sessions. A restored
checkout can make OpenCode's first snapshot recheck much of the
repository. Cache publication has an unexplained interval after archive
verification.

**Proposed behavior**

Validate the private archive copy that staging will consume. Use the
existing one-shot command path for helpers that only need an exit
status. Refresh the Git index after workspace transfer for a new native
OpenCode sandbox. Keep the refresh inside the awaited inbound barrier
and use the existing command timeout. Add nested publication spans.

**Reason and benefit**

Two matched local component pairs reduced preparation plus provider time
from 8.563/8.553 seconds to 7.313/7.511 seconds, including the refresh
cost. Two alternating remote copyback pairs reduced the median from
9.110 to 7.943 seconds. These are component results. They do not
establish an end-to-end hosted improvement.

Related: #18181 and the earlier closed #18195. This implementation uses
the existing fully awaited transfer boundary. It does not use an
optional preparation deadline.

## What Changed

- Materialize cache hits into caller-owned staging and validate those
exact bytes once. Remove incomplete copies on failure.
- Select the existing one-shot path for exit-status-only run and removal
helpers. Output-reading helpers keep their existing behavior.
- Refresh restored Git stat metadata before OpenCode starts. Enable this
only for newly acquired native OpenCode host-current workspaces. Skip
recovery and retained sandboxes. Keep dirty files unstaged, accept Git's
dirty-worktree status, and propagate real command errors.
- Trace cache capacity checks, eviction, the body after lock
acquisition, archive copy, sync, and hashing. Keep the operator endpoint
gate and bounded phase names.

## Verification

- On the rebased branch: 202 focused tests pass: 152 workspace
seed/cache/runtime tests, 27 managed command tests, and 23 native
workspace/tracing tests. Adapter TypeScript build and server typecheck
pass.
- Tests cover corrupted copies, cache changes after private
materialization, dirty working trees, quoted paths, recovery, the
awaited refresh barrier, real command failure, and company-lock
contention.
- A real-filesystem probe through the server phase mapper verified
parentage and endpoint-off behavior. A controlled lock wait stayed
outside the locked-publication span. No external export was used.
- A full local Core/Daytona replay on the pre-rebase implementation
saved its synthetic reply. It retained the pinned large public
workspace, all 209 skill files, positive Git context, and 66 tool
schemas. Both model calls stayed on sandbox loopback. Index refresh took
0.644 seconds and the first provider snapshot took 0.499 seconds. The
run took 162.004 seconds, including large laptop uploads; it is not a
hosted acceptance result or a matched end-to-end comparison. The failed
installer attempt remains recorded separately. Normal cleanup removed
all owned sandboxes.
- The current head passed 53 CI checks, with two optional skips.
Greptile is 5/5 on the exact head, with no open review threads. No
deployment or hosted latency claim is included.

## Risks

- Index refresh adds one awaited command. It uses the existing timeout.
A real Git failure stops preparation.
- Cache hits need temporary disk space for a private copy. Existing
corruption fallback and per-run recovery archives remain.
- One-shot command transport must preserve exit status and timeout
behavior across providers. The agent's native session and output-reading
helpers are unchanged.
- Local component gains are small relative to the remaining hosted
latency. Batch the fixes with the diagnostic spans; measure the actual
deployed path before claiming success.

**Why this adapter is useful**

Users need to set up an Antigravity agent and run real work through
their managed Google subscription.

**How the agent is invoked**

Native Paperclip Runner uses the pinned Antigravity ACP runtime. Exact
operator admission remains required; the local candidate result does not
enable general release.

## What Changed

- Show Google Antigravity in the ordinary adapter grid and preserve the
draft choice when setup resumes.
- Reuse the same user’s saved personal default Google subscription and
discover the exact low model through the native account.
- Run a prompt-free native Test and wait for authoritative readiness
before enabling task assignment.
- Carry the managed account through native runs and recover retired
refreshes through the existing encrypted, fsynced journal with exact
generation checks.
- Retain the latest rotated credential through verification, storage,
and partial home-removal failures. Retry the exact account’s retained
cleanup before another provider use.
- Reconcile cleanup before taking the credential mutation lock, fence
owners arriving during lock acquisition, and support nested lock holders
without a join cycle.
- Bound sign-in retirement outside database transactions and preserve
claims for the existing cleanup owner; one pending sign-in does not
block unrelated accounts.
- Cover Gemini and Pi API-key recovery, keep API-key bulk manual-model
editing usable, and keep adapter discovery available after candidate
expiry.
- Skip taskless native timer work before run or credential admission.
Preserve current master monitor and deadline scheduling.

## Verification

- The registered local saved-Google-subscription journey passed all 16
matchers in 196,520 ms using eval source `12aba` against actual serving
source `4a37ee7c`. Both turns stayed in one conversation, produced exact
downloaded files of 61 and 119 bytes after reload, and used distinct
native primary processes. All observed owners retired, leases released,
and credential fences settled. Independent readback confirmed Done work,
no active owned runs, a connected saved account, and the retained agent
paused for inspection.
- The measured runtime is production-equivalent to pre-restack
`65ef31dc` except its test-only transport fixture correction.
Current-master head `ff7c9249` preserves all 99 product paths: 98 exact
blobs and only eight inherited plugin-panel lines in `agents.ts`. Its
native binary was rebuilt for inherited Codex-only diagnostic changes;
the changed Rust behavior is outside Antigravity's ACPX execution path.
Shared native/UI changes have focused regression coverage. The recorded
live result is not represented as a measured replay of `ff7c9249`.
- Full workspace build and typecheck passed on `ff7c9249`. All 376
focused tests in 14 files passed, covering Google credential/retirement
controls and the inherited native-tool, redaction, route, and UI
recovery changes. Token gates, maps, and diff checks passed. The
required-close fixture was separately demonstrated red, then passed all
317 selected provider-wiring cases.
- [Current-head
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40959387972)
is green: 55 successful checks, two skipped workflow checks, and an
optional neutral review check. Required `ci / verify` and `ci / e2e`
passed. Greptile and Paperclip Review both report 5/5 on exact
`ff7c9249`, with zero unresolved review threads.
- This qualifies the selected operator-authorized local
saved-subscription candidate. The original exploratory journey remains
historical evidence; the repeatable fixed-driver eval is in the next PR.

## Risks

- Google refresh recovery must preserve the exact grant, account, and
credential generation. An uncertain native owner or failed encrypted
handoff retains the private home and blocks cleanup.
- A successful local saved-subscription candidate does not qualify fresh
OAuth, API keys, Cloud, Linux, other models, or general release.
- Timer filtering changes only taskless native Runner admissions.
Existing task-bound monitors and legacy adapters retain their owners.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex (GPT-6). The host did not expose the exact model revision
or context limit. The model used tools for code edits, tests, and
review.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 35ab90ad0f Map runtime activity to authorized task plugin panels (#18131)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and tasks.
> - Plugins contribute views to the task sidebar.
> - A ready view can belong to an earlier task.
> - Runner records activity under its authenticated run.
> - This PR maps that activity to installed task-panel declarations.
> - The sidebar checks readiness after current-run use and restores use
after reconnect.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Builds on merged contract #18129 and Runner publisher #18050. This PR
targets
master and is ready for review. Earlier combined verification is
retained in
[the verification
archive](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/18050#issuecomment-6489369676).

**Subsystem affected**

Run-event reads, plugin task contributions and the task sidebar.

**Problem or motivation**

Readiness polling can show a view left ready by another task. Reload and
reconnect must recover current-run use without losing concurrent live
activity.

**Proposed solution**

Map recorded activity to installed task-panel declarations. Merge
authorized
history and live activity, then perform bounded readiness checks for the
running agent. Preserve the existing read-only view.

## What Changed

- Add optional `{ namespace, activityKey }` activation mappings to
task-panel
declarations. Legacy declarations remain valid but contribute no task
panel.
- Add `view=plugin-panels` to the existing run-events route. Preserve
run-read and
telemetry-read authorization, secret redaction and private-run denial.
Map
activity to installed contributions and return at most 128 panel
identities.
- Scope activation caches to current panel versions and activity
declarations.
Preserve unchanged panels during unrelated plugin updates and history
reads.
- Merge history and live hints without losing concurrent activations.
Filter by
  company, task, run and agent. Restore history on mount and reconnect.
- Replace periodic availability checks with up to three readiness
attempts after
activity. Fresh activity restarts settled transient failures. Pending
checks,
  successful readiness and HTTP 4xx failures are left alone.
- Reuse live run updates with the panel cache key. Recover only panel
history
after a pending subscription read. Mark expected not-ready query results
so
  the global error reporter skips them; real failures remain reportable.
- Preserve current-run dismissal and the read-only plugin view. Update
manifest
  comments and producer/consumer documentation.

## Verification

- Current head: `5e04d757c`, based on master `09c05c550`. Range
comparison
confirmed all six feature commits were unchanged by the rebase. The
final
follow-up keys readiness by the plugin installation ID and availability
path.
- `cd ui && node ../node_modules/vitest/vitest.mjs run
src/hooks/useTaskPluginPanels.test.tsx`
— all 45 cases passed. `cd ui && node ../node_modules/typescript/bin/tsc
-b` passed.
- The shared query-client and live-update recovery selection passed 96
cases on
  `49c544cd2`. Token gates passed before the final hook-only changes.
- Earlier focused verification passed 57 manifest cases, 69
database/history cases,
event-registry cases and route authorization cases, including
private-run denial.
- Regression coverage includes subscription/history races, task changes
during
recovery, unfocused run completion, bounded readiness retries, denied
reads,
expected not-ready responses, changed activity mappings, unchanged panel
preservation, old cache scopes, and same-version route or installation
changes.
- [Current-head
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40942001707)
passed: 54 successful checks, two skips, no failures or pending checks.
- [Standard and final
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/18131#issuecomment-6489842168)
both scored 5/5 on `5e04d757c`. The final review used the Apex tier,
added no
comments, and left no unresolved findings. The PR is conflict-free and
ready for review.
- Local checks stay targeted. GitHub CI provides the broad build, test,
typecheck,
browser and Runner coverage. No deployment or live-provider acceptance
is claimed.

<details>
<summary>Retained failures and recovery evidence</summary>

- `ac9329548` twice failed a browser reload assertion while conversation
history
was concealed. Master fixed its readiness wait in #17923. The approve
journey
then passed locally on `fea63a418` with installed Chrome (1 passed, 39
seconds).
All eight browser shards passed in later CI. The browser test is outside
this diff.
- A canary checkout failed with Git HTTP 408; its unchanged-head retry
passed.
- `de07d09fa` failed the mobile Cases card click after a ten-second
stability wait.
The same read-only journey passed locally on that exact head (1 passed,
26 seconds).
Its unchanged-head CI retry passed 22 cases, with one skip. The original
artifact
  is retained; the cause of that click timeout is not established.
- [CI on
`49c544cd2`](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40903679075)
passed 54 checks with two skips. CI also passed on `de07d09fa` after the
recorded retry.
- The `1e59ab441` merge checkout passed all browser and server suites.
Runner
shard 2 passed 2,252 cases and timed out waiting for a
controller-recovery command.
The test had landed on master in #18161 after the former branch base.
Rebasing
aligned the local checkout with that code; Runner shard 2 then passed on
`fcf7380d3`.
The original timeout cause remains unproven; no unrelated timeout was
changed.
- [CI on
`fcf7380d3`](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40940235193)
recorded runner shutdown signals in typecheck and a workspace shard. A
chat
recovery test observed a null wake deadline, and one Runner transport
fixture
failed during close. Those separate assertion failures remain
unexplained.
All of those jobs passed on the final readiness-key head. Those later
passes
establish recovery; they do not prove the cause of the earlier assertion
failures.
- Local browser setup first stopped at pnpm version-download
verification, then a
sandbox IPC restriction, then a missing bundled browser. Installed pnpm
9.15.4
  and Chrome completed the journeys. No dependency files were changed.
- Earlier optional-property TypeScript errors were corrected. Embedded
PostgreSQL
needed its install hook run from its package directory. Older CI also
recorded
fixture-cleanup lock timeouts, attention-fixture timeouts, and canceled
server
shards after runner shutdown. The parent fixed its FIFO snapshot-copy
failure
before merge. The linked verification archive retains earlier combined
evidence.

</details>

## Risks

Activity is a hint and grants no access. Missing plugins, denied reads
and
unavailable views contribute no panel. Older runs without activity
records show
no task plugin tab. A used view stays available for the running task;
reconnect
reconciles readiness. Matching producer and consumer builds are
required. No
migration, dependency, image publication or deployment is included.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with reasoning, repository tools and code
execution.
The exact serving snapshot is not exposed.

DottaandPaperclip 9e09d8f51f fix(runner): clarify native approval argument recovery (#18205)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - First-task onboarding requires a saved human proposal decision
before child work can start.
> - Native proposal tools reject interaction metadata placed outside
their advertised schema.
> - The existing rejection text focuses on question forms and does not
explain the misplaced approval metadata.
> - This pull request explains the field placement and keeps approval
recovery in its original confirmation or checkbox kind.
> - It also retains safe schema guidance in the run log so operators can
identify the rejected field.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #18025 for native first-task proposal recipes and #16889 for safe
native schema guidance. Related open PR #18105 changes separate server
API-client guidance.

**What happened?**

A native first-task confirmation copied `version` and
`supersedeOnUserComment` to the tool root. Both belong inside `payload`.
The runner correctly rejected the call before execution, but its
feedback described question forms. Later calls kept the misplaced field
and changed the approval into a question. No proposal card was created.
The run log retained only a generic schema error.

**Expected behavior**

Keep strict validation. Explain the nested field locations. Keep a
confirmation or checkbox approval in that kind while correcting its
arguments. Save the normal pending card and wait for an actual human
decision. Retain bounded schema guidance without storing rejected input.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Send an otherwise valid native confirmation with root-level `version:
1` and `supersedeOnUserComment: false`.
2. Observe the pre-dispatch `invalid_tool_call` rejection.
3. Move both fields into `payload` and keep `interactionKind:
"confirmation"`.
4. Verify that the corrected call creates one pending confirmation,
exact replay creates no duplicate, and child creation still needs saved
human acceptance.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The observed argument shape and initial regressions came from public
source base `c32e1ba6`. The repair is based on maintained master
`4a6f6a65`. Public tests use synthetic prompts and identifiers.

## What Changed

- Give rejected confirmations and checkboxes approval-specific guidance.
It names `payload.version` and `payload.supersedeOnUserComment` without
suggesting a question-form recipe. Other human-input errors retain
complete question-form guidance and stable question/option ID
instructions.
- State the allowed native root fields in the first-task skill and put
the metadata inside both executable proposal recipes.
- Retain the existing safe guidance in `semantic_tool_denied`
diagnostics. Keep the original rejection identity and
`paperclipExecuted: false`.
- Preserve only the exact bounded scalar diagnostic payload after
verified event admission. The rest of the envelope and all API
request/result bodies keep their existing redaction.
- Add a real native Codex transport regression and strengthen
advertised-schema, card replay, human-admission, persistence, and
privacy controls. Update the execution contract and onboarding maps.

## Verification

- Red: the native transport reproduced the malformed confirmation and
showed that the old hint omitted the metadata correction. A second red
confirmed that approval guidance still included the question-form
recipe. The corrected transport case now rejects before execution,
retains a safe hint, and dispatches one corrected confirmation that
returns a pending card.
- Red: both shipped recipe checks lacked explicit nested metadata. All
49 first-task admission tests now pass, including advertised-schema
validation, idempotent card replay, actual human acceptance, agent-only
rejection, and question-answer controls.
- Updated native checks pass on the current repair: 95 native Codex
transport tests with 2 existing ignored cases, all 32 provider-bridge
tests, and the schema-feedback unit control.
- API/case persistence regressions were red before the event-boundary
correction. All 71 affected port/redaction tests pass in a clean run at
frozen head `3be3a70f`, including the corrected envelope privacy
regression. The focused 16-test persistence/privacy group and server
typecheck also passed earlier.
- Full local `pnpm build` and `pnpm -r typecheck` pass at exact head
`3be3a70f` in a clean detached checkout with Node 24.22.0 and pnpm
9.15.4. Exact-head CI passes: [full PR
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40950360142)
and [isolated native Runner
readiness](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40950359835).
- The full local unit attempt recorded a 15-second timeout in the
unrelated Microsoft Teams 100,000-character existing-comment publication
case. That failure remains recorded. The exact isolated rerun passed (1
test; 1,814 unselected). The aggregate timeout cause is unproven. That
long local run straddled subsequent source edits and also observed the
two port regressions during their red phase; it was stopped and is not
final-head evidence. The clean affected-suite run above and current-head
CI provide the final verification. No timeout or assertion was weakened.
- Release-registry CI initially rejected the native test's compile-time
schema include outside the release crate's hashed input closure. The
guard was reproduced locally. The test now reads the current canonical
schema at execution. All 10 crate-cache controls and the real native
approval regression pass afterward; the cache guard and workflow keys
remain unchanged.
- Current-head Greptile review is 5/5 with no unresolved review threads.
All required checks pass (56 success, 4 skipped). The advisory Paperclip
Review remains neutral/incomplete after one normal re-review request; no
completed assessment or score is claimed.
- `cargo fmt --check`, map structural checks, and `git diff --check`
pass.
- Source and scripted-provider checks do not prove that a model will
follow the guidance. The original live onboarding attempt remains
failed; acceptance at a deployed revision is separate work.

## Risks

- This changes repair guidance and shipped instructions. It does not
make malformed arguments valid or supply a human decision.
- Diagnostic retention adds no rejected arguments, values, or unknown
input keys. The API receipt allowlist is unchanged. The validated-event
exception restores only the safe scalar payload; optional debug and
other envelope metadata still pass through redaction.
- The existing 512-byte guidance bound, strict tool schema, company/run
binding, idempotency checks, and proposal admission remain effective.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6.1 Sol (`gpt-6.1-sol`) through Codex, with tool use and code
execution. The context-window size is not exposed to this session.

LKL-ZREO 6c1ee40af0 fix(runner): keep assigned-tool pagination stable across revocations (#14258)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and the tools they can use.
> - Native runs can receive assigned app tools through governed tool
access.
> - Large tool catalogs use a search tool with offset paging.
> - The server refreshes grants before each page so revocations take
effect at once.
> - The old paging code applied the saved offset after this live list
changed.
> - A revoked earlier tool shifted the list and caused a later allowed
tool to be skipped.
> - This pull request keeps the offset on the fixed session catalog and
filters grants during the scan.
> - The benefit is complete tool discovery without weakening live
revocation.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

`paperclip_search_assigned_tools` used an offset against the current
authorized tool list. If an earlier tool was revoked between pages, the
list became shorter. The next page then skipped a tool that was still
authorized.

**Expected behavior**

Paging must return every matching tool that remains authorized. A live
revocation must hide the revoked tool without changing the position of
later tools.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create an assigned tool catalog with `alpha`, `bravo`, `charlie`, and
`delta`.
2. Request two tools from offset `0`. The result contains `alpha` and
`bravo` with next offset `2`.
3. Revoke `alpha` before the next request.
4. Request two tools from offset `2`.
5. The old code returns only `delta` and skips the still-authorized
`charlie` tool.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`0f14d261233c545aa6a8a38ec253c498a5130fff`

**Agent adapter(s) involved**

Not adapter-specific. This bug is in the native assigned-tool discovery
path.

Related work: Refs #14218.

## What Changed

- Keep search offsets on the fixed tool catalog for the session.
- Apply fresh grant checks while scanning that fixed sequence.
- Add a regression test for a revocation between two pages.

## Verification

- `node node_modules/vitest/vitest.mjs run
server/src/services/native-runtime/assigned-mcp-tools.test.ts`
- `node node_modules/typescript/bin/tsc -p server/tsconfig.json
--noEmit`
- `git diff --check`

## Risks

- Low risk. The API and numeric offset format do not change.
- Revoked tools remain hidden immediately.
- No database, migration, or public documentation change is required.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-5.6, Codex agent with tool use and code execution.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 88a35cf4e7 fix(recovery): retain workspaces when restart recovery blocks (#17839)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native restart recovery decides whether an interrupted provider
session can continue.
> - An unusable checkpoint must stop provider replay.
> - The failed run can still own a remote sandbox and files that need
saving.
> - The blocked restart path recorded failure but omitted the existing
workspace preservation obligation.
> - Saved user comments then waited for cleanup that had no
file-recovery owner.
> - This change records that obligation in the same transaction as the
failure.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A native run failed after its provider reported a terminal connection
error. Restart recovery rejected its failed checkpoint and marked the
run failed. Its prepared workspace and active sandbox lease had no
preservation record. A later user continuation waited for the old
environment to stop and could not start.

**Expected behavior**

When restart recovery blocks a run, preserve its exactly bound workspace
through the existing stop-and-save service. Keep provider replay
blocked. Stop proof and saved files must still precede any successor.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Prepare a native run with a remote workspace descriptor and its
matching lease.
2. Persist a permanently failed provider checkpoint.
3. Run native restart recovery.
4. Observe a failed run with an active lease and no required
workspace-recovery record.

Refs #17801 and #17439. Those PRs add lease-settlement notifications and
remote controller adoption. This change records the missing preservation
obligation in the current restart failure producer.

## What Changed

- Call the existing native workspace preservation service before the
blocked restart transaction commits.
- Keep the existing company, coordinator ownership, source lease and
descriptor checks.
- Add real PostgreSQL cases for exact binding, an unrelated source, a
live owner, and rollback when preservation cannot commit.
- Verify that preservation creates no replacement run or wake and
retains the provider attempt count.
- Document the transaction and recovery contract.

## Verification

- Updated the existing branch with master at
`09c05c55050fede448196637cbaa543a154da76e`. Both sides of the
overlapping test additions remain. The production fix is still two added
lines.
- Current source verification: macOS arm64, Node 25.6.1, and disposable
Homebrew PostgreSQL 16.14. No deployment or live task replay was
performed for this branch update.
- **113 tests pass** across `native-failed-workspace-recovery.test.ts`
and `native-restart-recovery.test.ts`. Run them with
`PAPERCLIP_TEST_DATABASE_URL` set to a disposable database ending in
`_test`. Coverage includes exact source binding, live-owner protection,
transaction rollback, no replacement run or wake, cancellation
preservation, and orphan preservation.
- Full local `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass. Map checks,
module-boundary checks, and the PR diff whitespace check pass.
- Local verification limits remain explicit. The embedded PostgreSQL
probe fails during `initdb`. The full `pnpm test:run` invocation hit
that startup failure and was stopped. A broader restart integration
invocation against disposable PostgreSQL did not finish while
checkpoint-backlog work remained pending and was stopped. Neither
invocation is a passing acceptance result. Hosted CI must qualify the
updated head.
- Prior-head evidence retained: the preservation regression first failed
because its required fields were absent. The original verification
passed 105 locally available cases and skipped nine real-runner process
cases because the local binaries were unavailable. Previous-head hosted
CI passed full typecheck/build, test shards, Runner checks, and browser
shards. Those results do not qualify the updated head.
- Prior live-repair evidence retained: an audited call to the existing
preservation service registered the missing obligation for an exactly
bound source. Normal workers confirmed termination, released the source
lease, and preserved the prepared files before an assigned continuation
started. This was an earlier repair, not acceptance of the current
branch update.
- Updated-head hosted CI passes on
`a22feeb54daa2e9325a55d0ccd86515e64cbd47d`, including typecheck/build,
all test shards, Runner checks, and browser shards. Apex is 5/5 on the
same commit with no actionable findings or unresolved review threads.
GitHub reports a clean merge state. The patch is not deployed. The
original provider connection failure remains unexplained by this change.

## Risks

- Preservation adds database work only when a restart classification
becomes terminal. It adds no recurring scan or timer.
- A failed preservation write now rolls back failure settlement. The
existing owner can retry instead of leaving cleanup without an owner.
- A live coordinator or mismatched source remains protected. This change
neither destroys the sandbox nor starts provider work in the recovery
transaction.
- Existing cleanup must still prove termination and preserve files. A
terminal run alone does not authorize continuation.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` through Codex in T3 Code, with xhigh reasoning
effort, repository inspection, tool use, and code execution. The runtime
does not report the context-window size. Earlier implementation used the
OpenAI Codex model recorded in the PR history.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 5d79d88d68 fix(server): let settled native finalizations permit idle sleep (#18184)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Native runs retain finalization records for recovery and audit
history.
> - Idle sleep checks durable work before it stops an instance.
> - The current check treats every retained finalization as pending
work.
> - A committed record can remain after its run and status effects have
finished.
> - This pull request recognizes complete records without deleting them.
> - Instances can sleep while unfinished execution and recovery work
remain protected.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A retained `native_run_finalizations` row prevents idle sleep even after
the run has finished and its status decision has been applied. The
current gate checks whether any row exists.

**Expected behavior**

Complete finalization history should remain available without counting
as pending work. Active leases, retries, accounting, recovery, and
incomplete status effects must still prevent sleep.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Finish a native run and retain its committed finalization.
2. Confirm that its accepted result, assessment, applied decision, and
delivered effects agree.
3. Request an idle report under a valid quiet admission hold.
4. Observe that the retained row reports background work before this
change.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on master at `cd0c86e5e1d427c8fa8aa8c3a9499391ee9b425b` with
a local PostgreSQL fixture.

**Deployment mode**

Server with PostgreSQL. No provider calls are needed to reproduce the
gate failure.

Related PR and issue searches found no duplicate for this check.

## What Changed

- Replace the blanket finalization-row check with a completion proof
bound to the same company, issue, run, accepted result, assessment, and
applied decision.
- Require the owning run's successful workspace-finalization receipt;
retain unresolved leases, retries, accounting, recovery, and status
effects.
- Share final-reply candidate discovery with the presentation recovery
worker, so a completed run cannot hide a required reply. The pure query
stays with native presentation; idle inspection uses it in the existing
read-only transaction and five-second statement limit.
- Register open warm sessions and in-flight close/checkpoint promises
with local idle inspection. Historical controller/provider process
metadata remains preserved.
- Add PostgreSQL and local-warm regressions and document the
retained-history rule.

## Verification

- PostgreSQL sleep/finalization and chat-monitor continuation suites:
300 tests passed, including 56 finalization cases.
- Local-warm regression: passed; an open session and its pending
close/checkpoint both block sleep until retirement completes.
- Server typecheck and server build: passed after review fixes.
- Full workspace typecheck and build: passed before the review
additions; hosted checks cover the updated revision.
- An earlier local full invocation encountered two chat recovery
failures that passed in isolation, and two existing Git workspace
fixture failures caused by Xcode system Git initializing `main`. Those
two pass with `init.defaultBranch=master` scoped to the test subprocess.
That superseded full invocation was stopped for review revisions; no
full local pass is claimed. No machine configuration or unrelated source
was changed.
- Fresh Apex review: 5/5 on `6846203fe2383bae1ede888fbaaedf83e9946e73`,
with all findings addressed.
- Hosted CI: fully green on `6846203fe2383bae1ede888fbaaedf83e9946e73`,
including the final verify gate. Twelve jobs were interrupted by a
simultaneous runner shutdown; rerunning the failed jobs completed
successfully.
- No hosted deployment of this change is claimed.

## Risks

This changes an automatic-stop gate. An incomplete proof could stop an
instance with pending work. The SQL fails closed and retains the
existing admission, local work, plugin, schedule, backup, and
provider-allocation gates. PostgreSQL cases cover unresolved leases,
retry/recovery intent, accounting, projections, rejected results,
unapplied decisions, and pending effects.

No migration or history deletion is required. Reverting the predicate
restores the conservative gate.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with repository tools and local PostgreSQL
verification.

DottaandPaperclip f1911a4c53 perf(skills): move repository packages out of Postgres (#18082)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/205/changes/paperclip/205
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents receive selected company skills before each turn.
> - Imported skills can need files from the whole source repository.
> - The current path stores those files in Postgres and reads large JSON
payloads during preparation.
> - This pull request stores verified packages in the configured file or
object store and keeps preparation queries small.
> - It also converts old rows automatically and restores missing files
from the exact saved commit.
> - The result reduces database traffic while preserving skill versions
and repository dependencies.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Company skill import, version storage, and preparation before agent
turns.

**Current behavior**

Repository snapshot bodies live in JSONB. Skill preparation can read
those bodies again even when the files already exist on disk. Historical
packages and native assets also need a bounded cleanup path.

**Proposed behavior**

Store package archives and manifests through the existing storage
service. Keep version identities, receipts, hashes, and recovery
metadata in Postgres. Convert legacy rows after the stored package
passes read-back verification. A missing package can use legacy bytes or
its exact Git commit under current repository authorization. No separate
data-migration command is required.

**Reason and benefit**

The warm path sends no repository bodies through SQL and reads no object
bytes. Cleanup runs through the existing deadline coordinator. Current
versions, active runs, explicit pins, and authored content retain their
protection.

**Breaking changes**

The normal application schema upgrade is required. Single-version and
skill-file responses keep their existing shape. Version lists,
current-version summaries, and test-run version summaries now contain
file names and kinds without file bodies. Diff and restore fetch
selected versions through the existing single-version endpoint. Older
server builds must not write after conversion unless they support the
new package format. The storage override and rollback limits are
documented in `doc/skill-package-storage.md`.

**Additional context**

Related work: #15731 preserves repository dependencies; #17923 changes
version-cache scheduling; #18080 changes delivery to remote Codex homes.
This change owns package persistence, acquisition, and expiry. It does
not replace those delivery or scheduler changes.

## What Changed

- Add company-scoped archive receipts, exact-commit recovery recipes,
migration deadlines, and a durable object-deletion queue.
- Add bounded archive upload, read-back verification, extraction,
concurrent request coalescing, and verified local caches.
- Convert old snapshots and versions automatically. Keep legacy bytes
when verification fails.
- Recover missing files through current source authorization and the
original commit. Validate repository identity, file hashes, modes, and
the aggregate hash.
- Expire unused recoverable Git packages and native assets after 30
days. Preserve active pins and the durable copy of authored or unproven
content.
- Keep warm preparation queries metadata-only. Bound file digest caches
and avoid repeated body hashing when file identities are unchanged.
- Extend the existing storage contract with cancellation. Register
package work with the existing coordinator. Optional conversion retries
retain the original bytes and may wait for ingress without blocking
sleep.
- Add regression tests, operating guidance, a deep trace, benchmark
receipts, and an optional maintenance command.

## Verification

### Final master integration and review repair — October 29, 2026

Current head: `a6065424249e763dfeac37161f1b52a9f25bd9b7`. Commit
`f8bbdd3dbd` resolves the conflicts with master `76a796e964`; the final
two commits repair the Apex deletion findings below.

- Keep both package-maintenance and version-retention notifications in
their write transactions.
- Keep the shared run-pin predicate and master's controller-lease
deadline metadata. Package expiry reads the updated protected-version
result.
- Preserve every master migration entry. Generate migration **0415
(`0415_zippy_zemo.sql`)** after master's 0414. Its skill SQL is
byte-for-byte unchanged from the previously tested idempotent migration.
Retain only the five newest schema snapshots. Migration numbering and
safety checks pass.
- Repair failed file/folder deletion: preserve a complete temporary
subtree until transaction commit, restore on upload or SQL failure, and
restore callback failures before releasing the mutation lock. Both
PostgreSQL regressions reproduced missing files before the fix and now
pass. They cover binary data, executable permissions, empty folders,
unlisted files, unchanged database/version rows, successful retry after
upload-claim expiry, and historical reads.
- Reconcile lost commit replies under the same advisory and row locks.
Check the saved version and source identity before restoring. Keep
committed deletions intact and preserve backups when the database
outcome is unknown or a newer edit exists. Four real-PostgreSQL outcome
tests pass; the prior code failed three of them.
- Full workspace typecheck and production build pass on the final
commit. All **204** focused PostgreSQL package/cache/retention/authoring
and filesystem-boundary tests pass, with none skipped.
- Apex review **18 passes 5/5**, with zero new comments on the exact
final head. All **34** review conversations are resolved.
- [Final-head
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40914116508)
completes successfully on attempt 2. The head has **55 successful
checks**, two neutral reports, two skipped checks, and a successful Snyk
status. No checks are pending or failing. All eight browser shards pass.
- Runner Vitest 2/2 timed out once in the unchanged ACPX
controller-replacement fixture. The same job passed on the preceding
commit. One unchanged CI retry passes all five ACPX recovery cases,
**2,253** Runner package cases and **126** native server integration
cases; their standard one and five skips remain. The initial timeout's
root cause is not established. Local diagnosis also hit the fixture's
eight-second session.open timeout with an authenticated Runner; no local
Runner pass is claimed.
- Both full local `pnpm test:run` attempts were stopped when Apex
identified deletion defects and source repair became necessary; neither
is claimed as a passing full local run. The final **204** focused tests,
full workspace typecheck, and production build pass. Full-suite
acceptance uses the final-head CI jobs. The superseded merge-head CI
included runners terminated by shutdown signals; each source repair
started a new full run.

- Auto-merge is enabled for squash merge. The final head is
conflict-free and all checks pass. GitHub's active master ruleset still
requires a code-owner approval for the dependency files. The existing
review requests are with `devinfoley`, `nickyleach`, and `forgottendev`;
no policy bypass was used.
- The earlier hosted stress and full native receipts below remain tied
to `a2e597d800`; they are not relabeled as a deployment of this final
integration. The earlier local PostgreSQL startup failure remains
recorded below; PostgreSQL ran successfully for this integration
verification.

### Full native skill execution — October 29, 2026

The full native-agent acceptance gap is closed on candidate
`a2e597d800eb989d565780e7aa947d5368676444`. Two qualifying native turns
used OpenAI API / `gpt-5.4-mini` in real Daytona sandboxes, on the same
disposable hosted TEST tenant as the stress test. A follow-up on the
same task consumed a newly saved skill version.

The task text asked for the assigned skill workflow. It did not contain
the proof nonce or expected receipt. The assigned authored skill
contained a Python verifier and a random package-local nonce. The agent
read the actual installed skill files and executed that verifier against
the imported, automatically converted 1,360-file repository package. It
checked the repository file count and reference/binary bytes, and
directly executed the repository's executable probe. Independent
verification matched the emitted JSON to the nonce and expected byte
hashes. The agent persisted the same receipt as its task response;
native finalization committed, workspace finalization succeeded, and
task state became Done.

| Qualifying turn | End-to-end run time | Recorded skills.prepare |
Repository files | Binary hex | Shell receipt SHA-256 |
|---|---:|---:|---:|---|---|
| Initial task | 47.881 s | 1822 ms | 1360 | `00ff07800a` |
`a1deb30dc095f2306c7aa9cc5ec396da12c68961cf5b809f4d7c20f7fc68493b` |
| Corrected follow-up, new nonce/version | 37.974 s | 377 ms | 1360 |
`00ff07800a` |
`dbcdc33fa1376b4edc136feae1cdf770560a73292467e93619efdda20e4282a7` |

Both successful shell receipts reported `probe: STRESS18082` and
`assetSha256:
e8ea7a2f15f7bb3b332a46adbef848465884c8996595aa234748befd544d1f3a`. Their
proof nonces, selected version IDs and receipt hashes differed, and both
ran on the same task. These are observed timings, not latency SLOs; they
include real provider work. The service stress-test timings remain a
separate measurement boundary.

Earlier failures remain in the evidence:

- The original five-minute Daytona allocation timeout never reached
model execution. After normal owned-stack restore, its durable cleanup
record was `expired` / `success`. The cause of that original allocation
timeout remains unknown; a later success establishes recovery only.
- Initial continuation setup used unsupported generic agent-update
fields and returned HTTP 409 before dispatch. Setup was corrected to use
the supported skill-assignment and versioned instruction commands.
- The intervening completed native turn read repository bytes and ran
the probe, but omitted the verifier JSON under the older test agent's
overly-specific instruction file. Its strict receipt validator failed;
it is not counted as a qualifying turn. Correcting the test agent's
instruction file and sending an explicit task-scoped wake produced the
qualifying follow-up above.
- The pinned application's immutable rate card omits `gpt-5.4-mini`, so
completed usage triggered the normal block-on-unpriced budget policy.
Supported append-only accounting corrections estimated the three
completed runs using the [official OpenAI model rate
card](https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/models/gpt-5.4-mini): $0.75
input, $0.075 cached input, $4.50 output per million tokens, assuming
standard processing. Estimates totaled 12.482655 cents. Original usage
and missing-price records are preserved; the $1 hard stop and
unpriced-usage guard stayed active.
- Model shell attempts included a missing `xxd` command and incorrect
guessed file paths. Those failed calls and subsequent successful actual
verifier calls remain visible in complete event streams. No
zero-tool-error claim is made.

No product source changed during this continuation. The previously
measured contention, cold-start and memory limits remain. The later
merge resolution is covered by the separate integration checks above;
these hosted receipts qualify their recorded candidate.


### Hosted stress test — October 29, 2026

**Hosted acceptance:** full native-agent execution and a changed-skill
follow-up pass on the recorded hosted candidate. The final integration
section above records the subsequent conflict resolution and its
separate checks.

Tested baseline `929e840595c8933ca485ac7a2e99413e1e11ca64` and this
exact candidate sequentially on one disposable TEST tenant, with
external Neon PostgreSQL and actual S3. The fixture contained **1,360
files / 22.4 MB / ten skills sharing one repository**. Measurements
cover deployed skill-preparation and native-context services in an
adjacent diagnostic process, not a complete agent turn. The container
had **24 vCPU / 24 GB**.

| Warm workload | Median before → after | p95 before → after | DB
returned value bytes/preparation before → after |
|---|---:|---:|---:|
| One skill, serial | 1,060 → 125 ms | 1,303 → 155 ms | 22,610,389 →
1,771 |
| One skill, four concurrent | 4,415 → 297 ms | 5,143 → 328 ms |
22,610,389 → 1,771 |
| Ten skills, serial | 5,723 → 535 ms | 6,057 → 600 ms | 224,739,030 →
10,671 |
| Ten skills, four concurrent | 24,410 → 1,986 ms | 24,833 → 2,221 ms |
224,739,030 → 10,671 |

- Candidate warm preparation performed **zero S3 GETs**. Ordinary-pool
queries fell from 16 to 9 for one skill and 61 to 9 for ten, excluding
dedicated lock connections. DB numbers measure returned values before
Drizzle decoding, not wire bytes. Baseline/candidate sample counts were
30/100, 32/100, 5/50 and 8/48 respectively; the small baseline ten-skill
samples are comparative evidence, not SLO estimates.
- **Application-UID soak:** 800 ten-skill preparations over 10.3
minutes, four workers paced by 2.5 seconds; **zero failures**, median
**559 ms**, p95 **775 ms**, p99 **910 ms**, zero warm S3 reads. All 726
accompanying health/company-list requests returned HTTP 200. Their
end-to-end p95 was 569/502 ms, including network latency. The probe
overlaps most of the soak. Soak DB-response capture was limited to its
first 60 seconds.
- **Important remaining costs:** an unpaced 16-way ten-skill burst had
p95 **8.32 seconds** because company-level preparation serializes. Cold
preparation took approximately **1.1–2.5 seconds** for one skill and
**7.4–10.0 seconds** for ten. Ten-skill diagnostic RSS remained about
**1.17 GiB** (baseline 1.18 GiB), and the soak peaked at **1.35 GiB**. A
concurrent whole-container sample was 3.45 GB. This does not establish
suitability for a small-memory host or eliminate per-entrypoint native
asset duplication.
- **Upgrade without a manual data migration passed:** legacy snapshot
JSON shrank from 22,465,691 bytes to `[]`, with a stored package and
zero pending conversions.
- **Recovery passed:** sixteen concurrent cold requests coalesced into
two S3 GETs; full bytes/binary/executable modes matched; same-size
corruption repaired; an injected storage failure preserved warm access
and failed cold access safely. A disabled public-Git source denied
recovery, and after the actual five-minute backoff its exact SHA
reconstructed all 229 files. Cross-company descriptor access was denied.
Private-Git credential revocation was not tested.
- **Retention passed:** reclaimed 27,754,496 allocated cache bytes,
deleted an unreferenced package row and both objects, preserved aged
authored history, and expired/reacquired reconstructible Git content. A
version pinned by the failed native run was correctly retained. Only
owned fixture timestamps were aged.
- **Browser UI passed:** authored skill creation, saved edit surviving
reload, version history, and restoration of earlier content.
- **Initial native attempt (superseded by the qualifying turns above):**
one real run failed at Daytona allocation after five minutes
(`setup_failed`), before any model execution. Provider cleanup also
reported failure. That attempt does not count as a passing native turn.
Its receipt and all evidence remain preserved; its cleanup later
recorded success after normal restoration.
- Initial A/B commands ran as SSH root. Diagnostic-owned lock/cache
permissions caused one setup HTTP 500 and the first UID-1000 soak to
fail; exact fixture paths were repaired. The final soak, retention and
recovery ran as application UID 1000. A fresh UID-1000 one-skill batch
also passed (30 samples, median 116 ms, p95 321 ms, 1,771 DB value
bytes/preparation). Earlier harness-export, SSH, npm provenance, backoff
and UI-wait failures remain recorded alongside their successful retries.
- Private evidence includes raw timings, assertions, HTTP probes,
screenshots and failure/cleanup receipts. Initial failed-campaign
cleanup suspended and retained the owned TEST tenant and released the
shared QA account lease at **15:22:41 UTC**. The tenant was subsequently
resumed under its existing ownership for the native execution
qualification above. Final cleanup completed at **15:53:09 UTC**: the
account lease is released and the tenant is suspended/retained under the
original October 30, 12:24:52 UTC retention deadline. Its separate stack
lease remains held; no active or pending-cleanup environment lease
remained. The original retention window is deliberately preserved even
after successful continuation.

- Earlier hosted-tested head:
`a2e597d800eb989d565780e7aa947d5368676444`, integrated with master
`929e840595`. The earlier merge conflicts were resolved at this head.
[Current-head
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40884087629)
passed; all checks are complete with 55 successes, two neutral reports,
two skips, and no failures. [Apex review
15](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/18082#issuecomment-6480257258)
passed 5/5 with zero findings on this exact head. All review
conversations are resolved.
- Ten real-filesystem boundary cases and server typecheck pass locally
for the security fix. Coverage includes cache roots, descendants,
individual files, symlink aliases, recursive ancestors, a future
concurrent cache fill, and allowed sibling directories. [Current-head
private-project integration
tests](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40884087629/job/123483306405)
passed all 29 cases, including authorized and unauthorized imports of a
cached private package. Full typecheck, build, server suites, all eight
browser shards, and Runner checks passed in current-head CI. Local
database tests could not run because PostgreSQL could not initialize;
this limitation is recorded below.
- The earlier generated migration preserved the newest five snapshots.
The final integration renumbers its unchanged SQL to 0415. Migration
safety/numbering checks pass. Its SQL is byte-for-byte identical to the
previously verified idempotent skill migration; repeated application on
this latest schema was blocked by the same local database startup
failure.
- The broader verification before the final migration-only rebase passed
1,025 package, lifecycle, remote-launch, native-session, and
asset-retention tests, 52 focused UI tests, full workspace
typecheck/build, token gates, and map checks. The linked complete CI run
passed before the latest focused fixes.
- A disposable MinIO instance passed multipart upload, verified
read-back, and cold restoration of an 18 MB archive.
- Twenty warm samples with a synthetic 1,349-file, 22.8 MB repository
retained five metadata queries and zero object reads. Median preparation
was 256 ms for one selected skill and 691 ms for ten, with 5 ms emulated
network delay each way. These are local measurements, not production
latency guarantees.
- No production instance was changed. Earlier verification failures and
their disposition are retained below.

<details>
<summary>Earlier failures, review findings, fixes, and rerun
evidence</summary>

- The first CI pass found a stale inventory-span expectation and a
missing repository-read span. Both are fixed; all three observability
tests pass. One browser test copied page text into its YAML parser after
reload; its first unchanged-head retry passed, but the race recurred
after rebasing. The test now waits for the renamed URL and completed
reload before copying the editor, retaining its original assertions. The
earlier full local suite did not complete cleanly: it reported setup
timeouts and assertions, while isolated relevant reruns passed. The
complete current-head CI run closes that broad verification gap. No
production instance was changed.

- The first Apex review scored 2/5 and identified six issues. The fixes
protect authored history even when it shares an in-flight Git upload,
recheck upload expiry during orphan deletion, bound failed-upload
cleanup, retain per-version kind/encoding metadata, add sanitized
failure diagnostics, and correct the migration guide. The final focused
run passes all 140 tests; the preceding eight-file run passed all 149
tests, including local storage and S3 diagnostics. Server typecheck and
migration safety/numbering checks pass after the fixes. The second Apex
review scored 1/5 and found unbounded maintenance storage calls and
mismatched package/Git batch limits. Those are fixed with a 30-second
cancellable cleanup deadline, shared 100 MiB/10,000-file scanner and
storage limits, and bounded Git read batches. The proposed manual
lockfile edit was rejected with evidence of the enforced CI-owned
lockfile policy. All 19 storage/recovery unit tests and server
typechecking pass. The new database-backed cleanup/conversion tests were
locally skipped because the host exhausted its PostgreSQL semaphore
capacity (confirmed directly by initdb). That gap is closed by
current-head CI: [package-store
tests](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40771320775/job/123109300889)
pass all 18 cases and [package-worker
tests](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40771320775/job/123109301157)
pass all 7, with no skips in either suite. The corrected YAML browser
shard passes. A separate planning-fixture test failed its cleanup DELETE
with an activity-log foreign key violation after its behavior assertions
passed; its one unchanged-head retry passed. The third Apex review
scored 1/5 and identified a one-slot pool deadlock, projected path
limits, cleanup holding the preparation lock during archive reads, and a
publication/expiry race. These are fixed with transaction-local reads,
prefix-aware bounds, isolated verification, and shared package row locks
with a publication grace. The separate Paperclip review also found stale
historical inspection, eager history downloads, and conversion retries
blocking sleep. Those are fixed. Local PostgreSQL capacity recovered:
the new database regressions ran, including the one-slot fork, paused
storage during a warm turn, and a locked publication during expiry. The
expanded run passed 144/145 tests; its remaining assertion still
expected file bodies from the version list and was updated to fetch the
selected version. The corrected company-skill suite passes all 81 tests,
and the final package/projection run passes all 27. All 52 focused UI
tests pass after updating their query-provider fixtures; the first UI
run exposed a fixture remount, and the follow-up exposed an editing
syntax error, both corrected. Full workspace typecheck and build, token
gates, and map checks pass. The sandbox initially blocked the build
tool’s local IPC socket; the authorized build rerun passed. Master then
claimed migration 0401. The branch is rebased on f8226b0515, the
unchanged SQL is regenerated as 0402, and repeated application passed
twice on the combined schema. Post-rebase workspace typecheck passes.
All 1,025 package, lifecycle, remote-launch, native-session, and
asset-retention tests pass on the combined head. All CI checks passed
for head 9d80a3b52d. The fourth Apex review scored 3/5 and found a
save/edit lock-order cycle, a retry retaining an uncommitted source ID
in its recovery recipe, and a summary read racing conversion. Commit
b7d9237c6a fixes all three. The new concurrency and retry tests pass
within all 61 package/source tests, and server typecheck passes. Master
then claimed migration 0402. The branch is now rebased on 65fa1cd617 and
the unchanged SQL is regenerated as 0403. All 68 package, source, and
worker regressions, server typecheck, migration safety/numbering, and
repeated migration application pass on current head 62553671a0.
Subsequent verification and review outcomes are recorded below.


- The fifth Apex review scored 4/5 and found cached version reads
unnecessarily depending on object storage and conversion reads missing
the coordinator cancellation signal. Commit 1eb90d80be fixes both:
cached reads verify bytes without the preparation lock; manifest and
archive reads carry cancellation through conversion. The first focused
run passed 70/71 tests, including all three new cases, but the existing
diagnostic test observed no warning. Its fixture now sets an explicitly
expired migration deadline; the final worker suite passes all nine
cases. Server typecheck passes.


- The sixth Apex review scored 4/5 with one finding: concurrent cached
inventories were unbounded. Commit 4b7589e14c gives cached inventories
and previews a two-reader/32-waiter limit independent of cold storage.
The first expanded pressure test observed a third reader before the
preview path had the same bound; both paths now share the local limit.
All 73 focused cases pass, followed by all 29 package cases after the
final overload adjustment; server typecheck passes. The separate
Paperclip review found no must-fix or should-fix issues. Its optional
suggestion to persist durability verification was considered: cleanup
intentionally verifies current external bytes before discarding the last
local authored copy, and the missing-object regression requires that
check. Shared-package eviction happens on cold fills with at most two
attempts and a ten-second budget.


- The seventh Apex review reached 5/5 with one remaining P2:
timeout-bearing manifest reads bypassed request coalescing. The security
review also found repeated archive acquisition after a cold
administrative read. Commit 79a80a39d2 shares manifest loads with
per-caller cancellation and cancels the underlying work when the last
caller leaves; coalesces identical cold version/file requests; and
publishes verified restored packages into the shared cache. Publication
uses a short nonblocking lock, while eviction verification runs outside
it. The first expanded run passed 73/74 tests and exposed a missing
originating DB for cache publication inside read-only inspection;
transaction readers now pass that owner explicitly, keeping metadata on
the transaction. The corrected run passed 75/75. A final eviction test
initially expected the shared package to remain after only its separate
runtime projection was reused; it now explicitly accesses the shared
package during verification. All 32 final package tests pass, including
independent caller cancellation, one acquisition across
concurrent/repeated reads, and warm preparation during stalled eviction
verification. Server typecheck passes.


- The eighth Apex review scored 4/5 with one finding: decoded cold
inventories outlived the storage semaphore while waiting for cleanup.
Commit 9d7921d1ec adds a separate two-response/32-waiter lifetime bound
held through cleanup, preserving the independent warm-read queue and
forwarding cancellation through eviction verification. The new
regression pauses cleanup after two responses decode, verifies a third
archive stays queued, and completes warm preparation before releasing
cleanup. All 77 package/source/worker cases and server typecheck pass.
On the preceding head, serialized server shard 6/9 was interrupted with
“The operation was canceled” after 57 seconds of tests; the log contains
no failing assertion. Fresh latest-head CI reruns that shard along with
the other gates.

- The ninth Apex review scored 4/5 with one P1: cold responses could own
both permits while waiting on a one-slot ordinary database pool held by
a queued transaction reader. Commit a94f0e409f reads caller-scoped
metadata before admission and isolates all acquisition/cleanup SQL on a
private connection. The new real-PostgreSQL regression reproduces the
deadlock against the previous head and passes with the fix; all 78
focused cases and server typecheck pass. The previous CI run completed
with 54 successful checks, including both formerly interrupted/stuck
serialized shards.

- The tenth Apex review scored 4/5 with one P1: preloading legacy bodies
before admission could retain many full repositories in queued requests.
Commit 276e353a37 removes that preload and also bounds legacy manifest
derivation/fallback, using private connections inside the I/O slot. All
80 focused tests pass; the final synchronized package suite passes all
36 tests and server typecheck passes.

- Apex review 11 returned 5/5 with zero comments on 276e353a37. While it
ran, master 8bc051245f added migration 0403, creating a metadata
conflict. Merge commit e1783764d9 integrates master and generates
0404_clumsy_leo.sql; its skill SQL is byte-for-byte identical to the
previously verified migration. The combined schema passes migration
safety/numbering, repeated SQL application twice, all 80 focused
PostgreSQL tests, full workspace typecheck, and full build. The
preceding a94f0e409f CI run was superseded and cancelled while its final
runner job was active; no old-head success is claimed for that run.

- Final acceptance: Apex review 12 returned 5/5 with zero comments on
e1783764d9. All 28 review threads are resolved. The final head has 55
successful checks, two neutral reports, two skipped checks, and no
pending or failing checks; the PR workflow completed successfully.
Superseded run 40789121902 was cancelled to free its workflow slot for
the final head; normal cancellation did not finish promptly, so force
cancellation completed it.

- October 29 conflict resolution (867c00673b): master 929e840595 added
installed-selection reuse and bundled relocation, routine cleanup
notifications, a hardened YAML copy helper, and migrations through 0413.
The merge retains those behaviors together with package read scoping and
the public-selection fast path; restricted selections still reauthorize
and the full row read rechecks scope. Generated migration 0414 retains
the existing SQL unchanged. Workspace typecheck/build and migration
checks pass. Local database verification is unavailable: initdb reports
semget / “could not create semaphores: No space left on device”; all 168
cases skipped, and repeated migration application failed at startup.
Docker returned HTTP 500 during container creation, so no Docker test
pass is claimed. Current-head CI must close this gap.

- Apex review 14 scored 3/5 with one P1: a local import could copy
cached private package files into a company-wide skill. Commit
a2e597d800 rejects cache trees and ancestors through a canonical
filesystem boundary, including aliases and ancestors checked before a
concurrent fill. Ten local filesystem tests and server typecheck pass.
The existing private-project integration case now rejects package-cache
imports for both authorized and unauthorized users. The preceding merge
commit’s complete CI run passed, and logs confirm all 168 locally
skipped cases executed successfully: package store 36, sources 35,
package worker 9, runtime selection 4, observability 3, authoring 81.

- Apex review 15 returned 5/5 with zero new findings on a2e597d800. The
separate Paperclip review found no must-fix or should-fix issues. Its
optional suggestions were considered: unexpected filesystem cleanup
failures remain visible, the durable marker cannot replace checking that
bytes still exist before deleting a last local authored copy, and
administrative history batching remains outside the pre-turn
optimization. The cache-path literal centralization suggestion is also
optional; the current producer and guard use the same directory, covered
by the new integration regression. All review conversations are
resolved.

- Earlier October 29 CI/Apex acceptance: a2e597d800 was mergeable at
that check, Apex review 15 passed 5/5 with zero findings, and all review
conversations were resolved. The hosted verification above records the
later acceptance limits and renewed conflicts. Workflow 40884087629
completed successfully, with 55 successful checks, two neutral reports,
two skips, and no pending or failed checks. The project-skill-sources
job log confirms all 29 cases ran and passed, closing the latest
integration gap. The preceding merge workflow also confirmed all 168
focused database cases ran and passed. No local PostgreSQL or Docker
pass is claimed.

</details>

## Risks

- First use after eviction can require storage or Git access. Revoked
grants, removed sources, and unreachable commits can prevent
reconstruction. Recovery never substitutes a newer commit.
- Historical packages without a proven recipe keep durable bytes.
Cleanup favors retention when a run pin cannot be interpreted safely.
- New uploads and conversion use bounded work and persisted retries.
Large initial conversions still add temporary storage and database load.
- Optional cleanup can wait until the next server wake. Supported
notifications assume one owning server process.
- Per-entrypoint native tree duplication and cold preparation cost
remain. The final ten-skill cold sample took 47.6 seconds on the shared
host.
- Generic authored edits can still hold an existing edit transaction
while a package uploads.
- Explicit file/folder deletion uses temporary disk space for rollback.
An uncertain commit with a changed skill or unavailable database retains
that backup and logs its location for recovery.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 247de89eae fix(runner): preserve warm tasks during recovery (#18169)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agent work and the lifetime of its execution
resources.
> - A warm native task can keep one Runner alive between successful
turns.
> - Foreground completion selects whether that resource stays running or
stops.
> - Background recovery must use the same selected policy.
> - Recovery currently reads that policy only from workspace copy-back
records.
> - A task without such a record can be stopped immediately after
foreground retention.
> - This pull request saves the resource policy with the native runtime
and permits the retained task to refresh its control connection.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Background native finalization can stop a successful warm Runner when
its run has no Core workspace-sync record. Foreground completion retains
that same task. The stopped Runner cannot receive the later drain and
suspend commands. Cold resume then correctly rejects its unproven
checkpoint.

Hosted diagnostics confirmed the recovery reconciler attempted
environment release immediately after foreground retention. The provider
connection returned HTTP 404 within the same second. A database-backed
regression reproduced the stop without a workspace-sync record.

A separate authorization gap also prevents the current retained task
from refreshing its connection endpoint after the run succeeds.

**Expected behavior**

Foreground completion and recovery must use the selected resource
policy. A successful warm task stays running until its idle shutdown can
suspend it. Failed or cancelled work still stops. The current retained
task can refresh its existing control route, but cannot prepare or
submit new execution.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Select a warm native runtime on a reusable remote execution
environment.
2. Complete a turn without a Core workspace-sync record.
3. Let native finalization recovery settle the still-active run lease
before foreground retention finishes.
4. Before this change, recovery defaults to `stop_and_retain` and
invokes the provider stop path.
5. Separately, request the retained task's connection endpoint after
successful completion. Before this change, Core rejects that request.

**Paperclip version/commit**

The hosted failure used Core 31b927e301.
Regressions also reproduced on master at 6d59f5ef7.

**Deployment mode**

A remote native execution environment with reusable warm tasks. The
resource policy is generic and applies across harnesses and providers.

Related recovery coverage: Refs #18161. This change preserves the
suspended-checkpoint admission guard. Existing tasks without the newly
saved policy retain the previous conservative fallback; deployments must
drain or recover them explicitly.

## What Changed

- Save the selected native resource disposition in the existing
runtime-selection transaction. Add no startup database round trip or
network request.
- Read this small policy in background settlement and recovery when no
workspace-sync record exists. Preserve valid workspace-sync policies and
export-retry behavior.
- Keep failed and cancelled runs out of warm retention.
- Permit connection refresh for a successful, dispatched warm task on
its current retained reusable lease. Keep retirement, termination,
expiry, saved-run identity, and plugin capability checks.
- Add database-backed retention and selection regressions,
failure/cancellation coverage, and bounded projection checks. Document
the lifecycle and access contracts.

## Verification

- Before the source edits, the no-workspace-sync regression invoked the
driver with `stop_and_retain` instead of retaining the lease. Both
runtime-selection cases failed because the resource policy was absent.
- After the source edits, those regressions and both
run-state/runtime-selection files passed. The three-file run had 77
passes and two new fixture expectation failures. Those fixtures were
corrected. Final-head GitHub CI passed, including the server suites,
Runner checks, typecheck, build, and E2E gates. The local rerun was
deferred at the user's request.
- Commands: `node_modules/.bin/vitest run
server/src/__tests__/native-environment-settlement-work.test.ts
server/src/services/heartbeat/runtime-selection.test.ts
server/src/services/heartbeat/run-state.test.ts`.
- The connection authorization regression failed before its edit. All 34
tests in `server/src/__tests__/environment-task-runtime.test.ts` then
passed.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` and `git diff --check` passed.
- No comprehensive local suite was run. Further local tests and VM
reproductions were stopped at the user's request to conserve battery and
mobile data. GitHub CI verifies the final head.
- Hosted verification of this patch requires deployment after merge.
Passing pre-patch retries did not establish repair of the original
failure.

- Standard Greptile and the subsequent requested Apex review both
returned **5/5** on `360bcd7e789d65950c27484af237faec02553666`, with no
inline findings.

## Risks

- This adds one server-owned field to the existing run profile JSON; no
migration is required. Invalid or absent policy keeps the previous
conservative fallback.
- Valid workspace-sync disposition remains authoritative. Pending export
and failed finalization still use stop-and-retain safety behavior.
- Retained connection access requires a successful run, matching saved
run identity, dispatched warm task, unexpired reusable lease, and no
retirement or termination. Superseded leases and new execution remain
denied.
- The cold-resume checkpoint proof is unchanged. This patch does not
make the already-stopped task's unsuspended checkpoint resumable.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 6f278dd6d7 fix(runtime): settle recovery lease and connection lifecycles (#18167)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - A remote runner can survive a controller restart.
> - Recovery renews its execution lease during slow preparation.
> - The native executor then shares that renewal timer.
> - Preparation kept its reference until all finalization finished. A
tick after lease release treated completion as ownership loss and
detached the retained runner.
> - A Linux continuity test also found that buffered wire events could
arrive before their connection was registered. Cleanup then kept a
completed promise under an undefined key and never finished.
> - This pull request transfers renewal ownership after execution
acquires its reference. It also registers each connection before wire
callbacks can run.
> - Recovered turns can complete, retain the warm runner, and settle
connection cleanup.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A recovered remote run could complete, release its coordinator lease,
then detach during instruction collection. The next turn could find the
old runner still using the ingress port. Recovery then stopped because
it could not prove process ownership.

**Expected behavior**

Preparation keeps the lease alive until execution owns renewal.
Execution stops renewal before releasing the lease. Actual ownership
loss still detaches the runner. Buffered wire callbacks must use the
registered connection, and cleanup must finish.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Recover an in-flight remote runner after a controller restart.
2. Let the recovered turn complete.
3. Hold instruction collection open through the next lease renewal tick.
4. Send a follow-up that needs the retained runner.

Related: #17439 introduced remote controller recovery. #18011 preserves
checkpoint authority through warm preparation. This change fixes the
lifetime of preparation's renewal reference.

## What Changed

- Pass an internal lease-acquired callback from recovery through
heartbeat dispatch.
- Release preparation's renewal reference after the executor registers
its own. Keep final cleanup for exits before dispatch.
- Add a PostgreSQL regression for completion while finalization is still
pending. Cover callback forwarding, acquire-before-release ordering, and
failure before dispatch.
- Register the authority connection before subscribing to wire events.
Handle an immediate close before accepting buffered data.
- Add regressions for a message or close delivered during subscription.
- Extend Linux continuity coverage with preparation renewal and delayed
instruction collection after recovery.
- Update the continuity guide and session verification recipes.

## Verification

- The new recovery regression failed before the fix because renewal
detached the runner after lease release. The 76 recovery, renewal, and
dispatch tests then passed. The final ordering and early-exit checks
passed again after replacing fixed sleeps with controlled interval
ticks.
- Both buffered-wire regressions failed before the connection fix. All
170 control-plane tests passed afterward. Existing tests cover stale
authority, ownership loss, pending operations, and closed ingress.
- Linux ARM64 acceptance passed at
`a7daefacceb8bd994d0b79d284cdf54f3e3829d1`, with Node 24.19.0,
PostgreSQL, the real Rust runner, TLS ingress, and a deterministic Codex
protocol fixture. The test interrupted the first turn, recovered it,
held finalization open for a renewal interval, and completed two
follow-ups. It retained one provider process, three turns in one
history, and the same runner identity. Final suspension and connection
cleanup completed. The ordinary warm-reuse case also passed three turns
with one provider process.
- Earlier Linux attempts completed the turns but hung during cleanup. A
debugger found a fulfilled promise keyed by an undefined connection. The
regression reproduces that defect. One later setup attempt timed out
while staging an unstripped 373 MB debug binary. The passing run used
the same binary with debug symbols removed.
- Reproduce Linux acceptance with the `same-server` case in
`doc/testing-native-remote-continuity.md`.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, map validation, and `git diff
--check` passed at the final revision. The full local `pnpm test:run`
command was attempted, but the serial run had not finished after 13
minutes. It was stopped after the equivalent CI lanes passed. It is not
counted as a full local pass.
- Greptile and the Paperclip review both scored the final revision 5/5
with no findings. All Runner verification lanes passed. The first CI
attempt hit timing failures in voice recovery, agent YAML configuration,
and the task-title outage browser test. The full YAML and voice-recovery
files passed locally (88 and 19 tests). These paths were unchanged and
passed on the prior revision. All three passed on the single retry.
Final current-head status: 55 successful checks, one neutral check, and
two skipped Storybook checks. No pending or failed checks remain.
- Live Daytona/model acceptance and recovery of the hosted task remain
unverified. This PR does not deploy the change.

## Risks

- Releasing preparation before execution starts renewal could leave a
gap in authority. The callback runs after the executor registers its
reference.
- Preparation errors must not leak renewal. The recovery promise retains
idempotent final cleanup.
- Wire callbacks can run during subscription. Message and close
regressions check that registration is complete before either callback
runs.
- No schema, API, model, permission, lease duration, or retry policy
changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and browser diagnostics. The exact serving model identifier
and context window are not exposed in this session.

07c6df260b fix(server): schedule archived runner evidence from saved deadlines (#17925)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/85/changes/paperclip/85
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Retired native sessions leave continuity and quarantine evidence on
disk.
> - The old hourly loop mixes evidence retention with backup expiry,
which has different database eligibility rules.
> - Evidence already has saved creation timestamps and local publication
signals.
> - This pull request gives evidence its own registered worker and
actual next deadline.
> - The worker stops filesystem and SQL activity when its evidence
obligations settle.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Stack slice 65. Parent: #17923
(`codex/sleep-64-skill-version-retention`). Related foundation: #15625.

**What happened?**

At parent `7b94aa185c29673372646bbf2e07a2fbd16bc394`, an hourly
backup/evidence tick still inspects native state roots. Evidence's
private due time is checked by that recurring tick instead of the shared
scheduler. Empty evidence and future retention windows have no reason to
be rediscovered every hour.

**Expected behavior**

Reconstruct evidence once. Wake from the existing publication signal.
Register the earliest saved retention deadline. Keep busy, failed, or
incomplete evidence recoverable. Preserve backup eligibility as a
separate duty.

**Steps to reproduce**

Start retention with an empty evidence root or archives inside the
seven-day window. The old timer still visits the combined owner. The new
evidence worker disarms when empty, or registers the saved expiry with
no evidence filesystem or SQL calls between relevant changes and that
deadline.

## What Changed

- Add an evidence worker through the delivery coordinator and shared
scheduler. Track startup reconstruction without delaying HTTP readiness.
Unsubscribe local publication before delivery shutdown.
- Select `backups` for the existing backup timer and `evidence` for the
new worker. Existing callers that omit the selection retain combined
behavior. Backup expiration remains the next separate migration.
- Use hourly retries for concrete busy or failed evidence, with earlier
saved expiries and one-second continuations independent. Restore
candidate/removal/byte summaries. Schedule publication at the first
removable instant; preserve legacy manual-tick semantics.
- Expose the existing earliest evidence deadline. Preserve one-second
bounded continuation, concrete failure/busy retries, cleanup-source
archive exclusions, symlink protection, late activity checks, atomic
rename, and interrupted removal recovery.
- Preserve non-ENOENT inspection errors as recovery obligations. Retry a
failed session root in a new evidence pass instead of continuing past it
and forgetting it.
- Register the first removable instant after the inclusive retention
boundary. Keep the existing manual dry-run publication semantics.
- Add real filesystem/isolated PostgreSQL lifecycle tests and
disabled/held-startup wiring cases. Add no table or migration.

The archive and quarantine writers already call
`noteNativeRunnerEvidence`; this PR connects that existing signal to the
scheduler. Shared code owns scheduling, while evidence rules stay with
the retention service. See
[`doc/plans/2026-10-27-runner-evidence-retention-sleep-audit.md`](doc/plans/2026-10-27-runner-evidence-retention-sleep-audit.md).

## Verification

- Adopted actual prerequisite squash
`b06ea111a254c62e0a55199b010d82e0adb33bf0` from #17923 through normal
merges. Qualified runtime/package/UI/map trees remain unchanged. The
final nine-path diff includes one browser-spec readiness repair.
- Runtime qualification remains **652 passing TypeScript cases across 22
complete files**, plus **29 passing Rust cases** in native-backend,
runtime-notification and configured-environment targets. One actual
closed Pi snapshot launch is intentionally skipped because its external
distribution root is not provided. Accepted source is
`b80eee32f344ae0218d8b791c14f2ea174da09cc`; all runtime and earlier
sleep-test bytes are preserved.
- The complete outage-recovery browser file passes **all five journeys**
on a fresh isolated database after four additive rendered-history
readiness assertions. Every original assertion, outage control and
timeout remains byte-identical when those new lines are removed. The
intentionally unresolved first-session scenario keeps its pre-auth
interaction and delayed-owner coverage. The prior CI/local timeout
evidence and one rejected broader precondition remain in the audit.
- Adapter/Runner/database builds, server/Runner typechecking, Rust
formatting/workspace checks, server build, module boundaries, migration
order and generated TypeScript/Rust profiles pass. PostgreSQL 17
fixtures apply all 413 journal entries through index 414; source hashes
and temporary fixture imports restore exactly.
- **Inherited validation exception:** Copilot profile 81's separate
source-identity check fails on the merged Rust configured-environment
hash. Its inputs and attestations equal upstream and stay unchanged
here. Grok's identity check passes. No release attestation is
regenerated or new live-provider qualification claimed. Required
exact-head CI/security and Greptile 5/5 still must pass.
- [The evidence
audit](doc/plans/2026-10-27-runner-evidence-retention-sleep-audit.md)
retains historical failures, counts and limitations. No full local
repository-suite, live provider, external-alarm, measured suspension or
fleet-savings claim. Fresh final-head CI/security, exact-head Greptile
5/5 and actionable Ponytail findings remain separate merge gates.

## Risks

- Live publication is the existing server-owned executor in one process.
Independent filesystem writers need an explicit signal contract. Startup
reconstructs restart state.
- Busy sessions and concrete inspection/removal failures retain retries.
Unknown cleanup-source archives remain protected.
- The existing scan enumerates directory names before applying its
entry/removal budget. This PR preserves that behavior and does not claim
a bounded total directory-listing allocation.
- An in-process deadline cannot wake stopped compute. Cloud sleep-safety
and external-alarm coverage stay unchanged. Physical evidence
reclamation can wait for a supported host wake.
- Backup expiration still has an hourly database eligibility scan. This
slice removes only the archived-evidence duty from that loop and does
not claim full instance suspension.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex (GPT-6-based coding agent), using repository inspection,
normal Git merges, composition proofs and complete
PostgreSQL/filesystem/startup suites. No subagents were used in this
reconciliation.

DottaandPaperclip c32e1ba6da fix(onboarding): keep approved child task handoffs runnable (#18160)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages work through tasks, agent runs, dependencies, and
human decisions.
> - The first-task workflow asks for approval before it creates an
execution task.
> - File-producing work must run on a child task before onboarding can
finish.
> - A child blocked by its onboarding source cannot start while the
source waits for that child.
> - This change rejects that dependency during task creation and later
edits, and gives the agent a correction.
> - The shipped recipe shows the dependency direction and requires the
actual approved inputs in the child instructions.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

After human approval, an onboarding run could create a child with the
onboarding source in `blockedByTaskIds`. Creation saved a blocked child
with no wake. The parent could then wait for that child. A handoff could
also refer to input from the parent conversation without including the
input in the child description.

**Expected behavior**

The approved child can execute before its waiting parent. Invalid
first-task dependency input fails before task creation and leaves the
same command key available for a corrected call. The child instructions
include the required approved input and constraints.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Accept a proposal on a server-created first task.
2. Call native `create_task` with `status: "todo"` and the onboarding
source in `blockedByTaskIds`.
3. Observe a blocked child with no scheduled wake. Block the parent on
that child to expose the stalled handoff.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The regression reproduces on `f8484a9f8d1f68e9534fee4f29e00e716dc680f4`.
The repair is based on current master.

**Deployment mode**

Core native and REST task creation. The same server boundary serves
self-hosted and hosted instances.

Related: #18080 fixed remote delivery of the selected first-task skill.
This change handles the later child handoff boundary.

## What Changed

- Reject a task blocked by its authenticated first-task source during
creation and later dependency edits. Later agent edits also check the
locked target's server-owned onboarding parent, protecting a child
running under its own execution. Compare UUID identity in PostgreSQL so
alternate supported UUID spellings cannot bypass the check. The error
explains the correction.
- Add a native child/dependency recipe with self-contained approved
input guidance. Clarify the general `create_task` input descriptions and
update their generated contracts.
- Cover native and REST rejection, corrected retry, preserved valid
dependencies and replay, and an executable recipe with exact input bytes
read from the child's own context. Thread the authenticated run through
native dependency edits. Keep blocker corrections independent of a new
proposal decision.
- Update execution semantics and the existing onboarding map entries.

## Verification

- Red on `f8484a9f`: the new native regression received a created
blocked child instead of the expected rejection.
- Review regressions were red on the original PR head: uppercase,
unhyphenated and braced source UUIDs created blocked children; a later
child PATCH returned 200 and saved the reversed blocker.
- Review follow-up reproduced both native and REST child-own-run
bypasses on `75fa75a6`: the native dependency call applied the reverse
edge; the child's own PATCH returned 200. The regression uses the actual
authenticated child execution and an already checked-out task.
- All 95 tests across first-task admission, assets, and the full native
tool-authority suite pass. The shipped recipe is validated against the
native schemas and exercised through real task/dependency services with
disposable PostgreSQL. Rejected PATCH tests preserve existing
authorization and attempt-audit behavior and require no requested
task-field, relation or wake change. Compatibility controls retain
ordinary manual parent blockers, explicit board edits, other blockers
and empty-list corrections.
- Runner TypeScript build, generated contracts, capability inventory,
protocol manifest, and map checks passed.
- Server typecheck and all 95 focused tests pass with the child-run
follow-up. All latest checks pass on `f24509ae`: 55 successful checks,
one neutral review check, four skipped checks, and a successful legacy
security status. Both automated reviews are 5/5 on this exact commit.
- Prior-head CI failures are preserved: the Runner close fixture had
unconfirmed provider drain while suspension succeeded; its exact
fake-provider subprocess row passed locally with unchanged sources. The
browser outage test lost its title textarea before any outage write. A
bounded local control with a fully loaded composer passed every original
outage assertion. The prior failure is an editor-readiness race; its
exact asynchronous ordering remains unproved. No UI, browser-test, or
timeout change is included. Neither failure is counted as a pass or
silently discarded.
- The first `f24509ae` CI attempt had two interrupted jobs: Typecheck
and General server 9/12. Their logs record runner shutdown signals. The
server job also records lost runner communication. The same-head
failed-job rerun passed both jobs and the required aggregate. It reused
the other successful results. No source, test, or timeout change was
made for the rerun. The failed attempt remains preserved. Full
repository checks pass in CI; the local full repository typecheck, test,
and build commands were not repeated.
- No external model or provider calls are used by these checks.
Real-provider acceptance at this revision remains separate.

## Risks

- The new rejection uses the authenticated run and the server-owned
onboarding origin. Ordinary tasks, other blockers, empty-list
corrections, and already committed creation replay retain their existing
behavior. Blocker edits do not reapply the creation approval gate.
- Nonempty blocker edits perform two indexed identity reads; the task
lookup covers at most the run source and locked structural parent. Other
patches and empty-list corrections add no source lookup. The update
guard adds no parent row lock behind a child. Existing REST
authorization checkout and attempt auditing remain in place before the
domain mutation guard.
- The explicit input recipe guides the model. Schema and persistence
tests do not prove that a future model follows every instruction.
- The tool guidance changes the generated semantic catalog identity. The
maintained generated files are synchronized in this change.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` through Codex, with `ultra` reasoning effort,
repository tools, code generation, and test execution. The context
window is not exposed by the runtime.

DottaandPaperclip 27fbdb2a74 perf(workspaces): reuse verified seeds across task branches (#18159)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their workspaces.
> - Remote runs stage a recoverable copy of the selected host workspace.
> - New tasks use separate workspace IDs and Git branches.
> - The verified seed cache currently treats those identities as
different content.
> - This causes repeated clones and seed verification when task files
and Git commits are identical.
> - This pull request shares immutable seed content within a company and
applies each task's branch to a private archive.
> - It also removes credential broker calls for two local Git snapshot
commands.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

New remote tasks rebuild the same Git seed under different workspace IDs
and branches. In a measured staging run, preparation took 29.7 seconds.
Git clone took 6.1 seconds and optional seed publication took 7.8
seconds. Publication overlapped the 4.4-second transfer, so those values
cannot be added. Local `diff-files` and `write-tree` commands also
request GitHub credentials.

**What did you expect?**

Reuse a verified seed when filesystem contents, Git HEAD, origin, and
nested repository layout match. Preserve each task's branch, recovery
archive, ignored files, and copyback behavior. Keep local snapshot
plumbing independent of GitHub credential capture.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Configure a remote native environment and a Git project workspace.
2. Create two tasks from the same source commit with different task
branches and workspace IDs.
3. Inspect the workspace preparation spans. Both tasks currently clone
and publish the same seed content.

**Paperclip version and deployment mode**

Reproduced on Core `25f1070fbdabd96b26cdf199e624a77905f3ca37`, with a
managed remote sandbox and native Runner. The local comparison used a
public repository at a fixed commit with roughly 13,000 entries.

Refs #17886, #16398, #16399, #17357. The Git launcher extension builds
on Jamie Buchanan's work in #17886. The other PRs establish the seed
verification, recovery, and eviction contracts preserved here. A search
found no open PR for sharing these verified seeds across task branches.

## What Changed

- Use a company-scoped cache bucket for native host-current preparation.
Keep the existing bucket and company storage limits and eviction rules.
- Remove branch names from the shared generation identity. Keep file
contents, Git HEAD, origin, and nested layout in that identity. Keep the
default workspace-scoped identity unchanged for other callers.
- Store a detached Git archive in the shared cache. Copy it and append
the selected branch metadata before upload and private per-run
persistence. Existing durable-seed replay can read the private archive
without the new cache option.
- Forward the scope through the execution target and both
command-runtime paths.
- Treat `diff-files` and `write-tree` as local Git commands. Network
commands, unknown commands, and managed commit identity keep their
existing credential path.
- Test new workspace IDs, named and detached branches, nested
repositories, dirty and ignored files, symlinks, recovery, corrupt
caches, refused publication, and copyback.

## Verification

- Current head `6087bac274d50804d1b332646e43f3b8d41d798f`: 53 checks
passed, two optional checks skipped, Greptile 5/5, no unresolved review
threads. Linux CI passed.
- Adapter-utils TypeScript 7.0.2 typecheck passed.
- Server package typecheck passed, including its Runner and plugin build
prerequisites.
- 140 seed-cache, seed-reuse, and sandbox-runtime tests passed after
rebasing.
- 44 Git launcher and command-runtime tests passed after rebasing.
- 30 native workspace preparation, warm history, and
retention-configuration tests passed. All 56 retention tests also passed
(5.72 seconds) after repairing missing library aliases inside the
installed macOS Postgres package. That local dependency repair changed
no repository source. The earlier startup timeouts occurred before test
assertions.
- The new seed reuse regression failed before the change because the
second branch cloned again. It passes through the execution target and
both command-runtime paths after the change.
- Clean local preparation comparison: two alternating measured pairs,
with an existing verified company seed and new task branches. Baseline:
19.63 and 9.85 seconds. Shared cache: 5.18 and 4.80 seconds. Median:
14.74 to 4.99 seconds. Each baseline cloned and published; each
shared-cache run skipped both. Branch and file checks passed. The
complete comparison loop took 58 seconds.
- The comparison used real Git, archives, snapshot workers, and local
file transport. It used no model calls. It does not establish a complete
staging response time. The first generation still pays the cold
preparation cost.

## Risks

- A shared cache hit requires an identical generation that is still
present. The company bucket retains the existing 16-generation/1 GiB
bucket limit; busy companies may miss more often.
- The branch binding appends entries to a private tar archive. Tests
cover the host platform; Linux CI must also pass before merge.
- A cache miss, corruption, or capacity refusal must retain the private
recovery path. Existing tests exercise those cases.
- Git plumbing can still encounter repository-specific filters or
missing objects. This extends the existing local-command policy by two
commands; it does not grant network credentials to them.
- The latest measured real staging reply took 77.8 seconds. This change
targets a bounded part of that path and does not claim the
under-15-second response goal is met.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning and repository tools. The
session does not expose the exact model revision or context window size.

ba07f85cad perf: schedule agent timers from durable deadlines (#17876)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/58/changes/paperclip/58
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agent timers must start due work and preserve queue admission rules.
> - The server woke their scan on every heartbeat interval, even with no
eligible timer.
> - Idle scans keep the database and instance active.
> - This pull request derives the next deadline from saved policy and
work records.
> - Supported producer transactions notify the shared coordinator when
eligibility changes.
> - An idle timer worker stops scanning and resumes when real work or a
deadline requires it.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17863. This is slice 63 of the recurring-work migration and
follows the merged issue-monitor deadline PR.

Related: #16632 changes timer issue scope; #16881 changes live-run
eligibility. This PR preserves the current admission policy. Those
policy changes are separate work. A future time-sensitive predicate must
expose its next transition deadline.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Agent timer heartbeat scheduling in the server.

**Current behavior**

A recurring heartbeat wakes the timer scan even when companies are
paused, timers are disabled, or no actionable task exists.

**Proposed behavior**

Register the earliest eligible interval or positive daily-cap reset
deadline. Re-read on supported producer commits and startup. Leave no
recurring database scan when no timer obligation remains.

## What Changed

- Keep policy and deadline calculation in the heartbeat queue.
Scheduling retains company, reporting-chain, worktree, and CAS gates.
- Use the existing deadline coordinator. Remove only the timer wake from
the server heartbeat loop.
- Notify before existing transaction writes that change eligibility or
deadlines. Cover configuration, lifecycle, company budgets, task
ownership, recovery, conversations, accounting corrections, and
completion.
- Use the lifecycle status-change hook for saved hire rejection. Cover
checkout's second adoption transaction after an initial failed CAS.
- Preserve pending work through idle and maintenance drains. Check
cancellation between due agents. Reconstruct on restart.
- Document the supported writer model and producer inventory. Add no
schema, table, or provider branch.

## Verification

- **1,710 passing cases across 49 complete files**, no skips, on
accepted source `32db86c1974dcbf794f01a8c5e42024e2ad071fc`. Coverage
includes real timer policy/CAS/producers, monitor and shared deadline
consumers, native reconstruction, Slack lifecycle,
skills/settings/configuration, queue isolation and agent lifecycle.
- Database build, production server typechecking/build, module
boundaries, target migration order and Runner profile identity pass.
Twenty-nine fresh PostgreSQL 17 schemas plus per-file fixtures applied
all 412 journal entries through index 413; all selected source hashes
and temporary fixture imports were restored exactly.
- Four new deadline composition cases verify future/overdue timing,
minimum scan spacing and disarming. A controlled mutation dropping only
the inherited continuation option fails; the composed source passes with
identical assertions and timers.
- Normal parent reconciliation preserves task-drain expiry and both
deadline contracts. The final monitor-parent publication changes only
its audit, preserving every qualified runtime and selected test source.
- Historical failures and review corrections remain in [the timer
audit](doc/idle-agent-timers.md). No full local repository-suite, live
provider, measured suspend/wake, external-alarm or fleet-savings claim.
Final-head CI/security, exact-head Greptile 5/5 and actionable Ponytail
findings remain separate merge gates.

## Risks

- Process-local notifications cover supported service/API writers in one
server process. Direct SQL and independent replicas need an explicit
ingress contract. Startup reconstruction is not live cross-process
notification.
- Notifications can batch for up to the configured heartbeat interval.
Known deadlines retain their scheduler path; failed reconciliation
retains bounded retry.
- Enabled timers without an actionable-work requirement remain real
recurring obligations. Zero caps require policy changes; positive
reached caps use UTC midnight.
- The timer fixture substitutes adapter enqueue. Existing admission
tests also pass, but this is not deployed provider or sleep
qualification.
- Cloud does not gain legacy agent timer alarms in this PR. Existing
sleep-safety blockers remain. No database/host suspension or fleet
savings claim is made.
- Parent-stack CI and review must pass before merge. This PR does not
authorize merging its dependencies.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex (GPT-6-based coding agent), using repository inspection,
normal Git merges, composition proofs, a controlled red/green regression
and complete PostgreSQL integration suites. No subagents were used in
this reconciliation.

0f6f0a3fee fix(server): schedule issue monitors without heartbeat polling (#17863)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/56/changes/paperclip/56
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Issue monitors save a future check on an existing issue.
> - The heartbeat timer still scans monitors on every tick, even when
none are due.
> - The saved deadline and claim already provide durable scheduling
state.
> - This pull request gives monitors their own deadline worker and
connects state changes to it.
> - Idle monitor work stops querying. Existing admission and recovery
rules remain in force.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17840, #16325. Related: #17171 addresses rearming a monitor after
its admitted run fails. This PR changes when monitor inspection runs and
follows the merged routine prerequisite.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Issue-monitor scheduling and idle database use.

**Current behavior**

Heartbeat ticks call the combined agent and monitor sweep. The existing
next-deadline query only retains future monitors. Polling covers overdue
leftovers, stale claims, and changes that make a saved monitor eligible.

**Proposed behavior**

Use the shared deadline worker. Retain overdue work with bounded
retries. Wake after committed changes to monitor state, issue
eligibility, company state, or native ownership. Keep legacy agent ticks
separate for the next slice.

## What Changed

- Add monitor-specific sweep and deadline methods to the existing
scheduling owner. Keep the manual combined method.
- Include overdue work and the strict five-minute claim fence. Exclude
active native owners until their state changes.
- Register monitors with the shared deadline worker. Heartbeat ticks
wake only the legacy agent timer worker.
- Connect direct issue-state writers and existing execution-control
notifications to monitor work. Checkout uses a short transaction around
its existing CAS. Provider work stays outside it.
- Add real database lifecycle tests and retain routine, startup,
admission, execution-control, and native-projection coverage.
- Record the obligation, producer inventory, recovery behavior, and
limits in `doc/plans/2026-10-27-issue-monitor-sleep-audit.md`.

## Verification

- **1,233 passing cases in 35 complete files**, no skips, on accepted
source `c24aadfc91e9394d73c799f9e05fc67202160557`. Coverage includes
real monitor scheduling/admission, native settlement, committed
producers, retained routines and all shared deadline consumer
integration suites.
- Database build, production server typechecking/build, module
boundaries, target migration order and Runner profile identity pass.
Twenty-four fresh PostgreSQL 17 schemas plus per-file fixtures applied
all 412 journal entries through index 413; every selected source hash
and temporary fixture import was restored exactly.
- Normal parent reconciliation preserves master's admitted-wake result
and scoped issue deletion while keeping committed monitor notifications.
All other paths match the automatic merge; packages remain byte-exact to
the qualified parent. The final routine-parent publication changes only
its audit.
- Historical failures and corrections remain in [the monitor
audit](doc/plans/2026-10-27-issue-monitor-sleep-audit.md). Old
delegated-Slack rate and Runner drain CI failures are retained; the
current inherited clock fixture and package source are byte-identical to
merged #17835. Fresh final-head CI remains required.
- No full local repository-suite, live provider, deployed suspend/wake,
external-alarm, production-load or fleet-savings claim. Final-head
CI/security, exact-head Greptile 5/5 and actionable Ponytail findings
remain separate merge gates.

## Risks

- A missing producer notification can strand a monitor after polling is
removed. The audit covers ordinary writes, direct status/assignment
writers, recovery, and native ownership changes.
- The writer model is process-local. Independent SQL writers and other
replicas need a supported notification or reconciliation contract.
- Overdue work uses the configured heartbeat interval as a retry floor
for the monitor worker. New notifications during that backoff wait for
its next pass. Normal state-change bursts coalesce for one second.
- Notification fanout can inspect monitors during other active work. An
unchanged idle subsystem has no recurring monitor scan.
- The legacy agent timer still polls. Cloud sleep proofs and external
alarm coverage are unchanged.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex (GPT-6-based coding agent), using repository inspection,
ordinary Git merges, composition proofs, PostgreSQL fixtures and
complete local integration suites. No subagents were used in this
reconciliation.

c8b7afee06 fix(server): schedule native environment lease settlement (#17801)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/24/changes/paperclip/24
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and the resources used by their work.
> - Native run completion has several independent settlement duties.
> - The recurring run reaper repeated environment-release discovery for
completed native history.
> - Existing lease rows already record releases that still need work.
> - This pull request wakes the existing release owners from committed
changes and schedules only unfinished release debt.
> - Completed history becomes quiet while stop evidence, workspace
preservation, and retention policy keep their existing owners.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #17793, #17717.

**What problem does this solve?**

Periodic native finalization replay calls environment release even when
no lease needs work. This adds recurring database traffic to an idle
instance.

**What is the proposed solution?**

Register one scoped worker on the existing delivery coordinator.
Discover work from native finalizations and existing environment leases.
Wake it from native, lease, and settings transactions. Keep the release
owner's saved pending-cleanup deadlines. Keep retries only while a
concrete lease still needs settlement.

**What alternatives have you considered?**

A slower unconditional scan still queries idle history. A new job table
duplicates existing lease truth. Replacing the compound callback would
also change runtime-service and agent-status duties; those remain
separate slices.

This is slice 58. Parent #17793 has merged. This publication targets
master and preserves that landed prerequisite. Fresh current-head checks
and review remain required.

## What Changed

- Keep ordinary company-only finalization hints out of environment
settlement. Prove zero candidate SQL after quiet and preserve real lease
delivery.

- Reuse the existing durable destroy claim for run-owned cleanup,
excluding concurrent attempts and fencing late receipts while preserving
cleanup recovery.

- Scope lease cleanup notifications to their company/run so settlement
does not rediscover the entire backlog after each release.

- Read only `nativeWorkspaceSync` and `workspaceExportRetry` JSON fields
when discovering environment cleanup. Preserve saved run data and
existing release decisions.

- Reuse the environment runtime's release predicate for discovery. Add
no table or independent timer.
- Wake from existing finalization, projection, lifecycle, recovery,
lease, and settings transaction boundaries. Simple lease acquisition now
uses a transaction too.
- Preserve recorded retention policy, pending-cleanup deadlines,
original lease/provider ownership, and current release guards.
- Re-read durable lease state after a release. A logged or swallowed
per-lease failure does not discharge the obligation.
- Delegate only periodic environment release. Preserve default
live/manual behavior, runtime-service release, and agent-status
callbacks.
- Add an owner/producer/lifecycle audit and real database tests.

## Verification

Accepted production source: `9596fa022b57feea026c4728c80bdc36037b804f`.
Publication head: `fb252c8b0e52ce355e7d98db2e392e4831f99c61`. The actual
parent squash is adopted by a normal merge with the complete accepted
child tree unchanged. Only audit text follows.

- **4,172 distinct cases in 64 complete server files pass**, plus **20
selected chat cases** (4,192 selected total). The main batch reports
3,440 passes and 49 skips. Both complete Stop/read files then pass 51 +
6 cases on separate fresh databases through their supported override.
Their eight pure cases are counted once; skipped cases are never counted
as passes. Separate process recovery passes 410; review response passes
273. The other 1,794 chat cases were not run locally.
- **Quiet producer proof:** the controlled unscoped baseline fails with
three candidate SELECTs after three routine company-only hints. The
scoped case performs zero, releases a real eligible committed-run lease,
and returns to quiet. The same test hash spans red and green.
- **Static gates pass:** database build; server typecheck/build; module
boundaries; migration order; current Copilot profile identity. Packages
equal the accepted parent byte for byte.
- **Fresh fixtures:** 39 prepared PostgreSQL 17 databases plus fresh
helper-owned databases. The schema has all 412 journal entries through
index/tag 0413_tired_kronos. All 65 original test hashes restore
exactly; the indirect Stop fixture is also hashed. No assertion or
timeout changes.
- **Preserved records:** original 49 skips and their completed coverage
remain documented. Parent handoff timeout and prior chat-idle failure
records remain in their owning audits. This does not claim full
repository, full chat, live provider, or deployed sleep acceptance.
- [Current integration and native lease
audit](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/fb252c8b0e52ce355e7d98db2e392e4831f99c61/doc/plans/2026-10-26-native-environment-settlement-sleep.md#current-master-integration-and-native-lease-quiet-proof-2026-10-29).
Fresh CI, security, and exact-head Greptile 5/5 must pass before merge.

<details><summary>Earlier revision verification and failure
history</summary>

Receiver failure fairness: a controlled 1,100 ms batch reproduced a
30-second delay for healthy due receivers. The worker now supplies its
existing per-item deadline through `nextRunAtOnError`. All 20 receiver
lifecycle tests pass on the owner and combined tip
`31c12f1d68ff4a51e06fc2be2abf2c2aee9f9d3a`; server production
typechecking passes on the owner. The failed receiver retains its own
backoff, and settled receivers return to zero recurring SQL. The
five-second assertion budget is unchanged. See [the owning
audit](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/6f3a0b8de149fb5620f15909473eb7c4455b9824/doc/plans/2026-10-25-chat-receiver-discovery-sleep-audit.md#healthy-receiver-progress-after-a-slow-failed-batch).
Current-head CI and review remain required.

Approved delegated Test-tab calls now evaluate caller and target
policies in the existing claim transaction. Real HTTP regressions first
showed a missing caller charge and shared-limit self-rejection. All 78
connection-management cases and 92 gateway cases now pass on the owning
branch, along with server production typechecking. All 78
connection-management cases also pass at combined tip
`d25f830db89c1623bff3547bfc68015c1c66e0cf`. The three new cases cover
shared charges, separate charges, rollback on denial, duplicate
approval, and rejection of a later authorized call. Intermediate
counter/identity fixture failures and a reused-database Slack collision
are recorded in [the owning
audit](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/ae9bff1c06e34702f64a399e58b45a657c133bd1/doc/idle-approved-tool-recovery.md#delegated-test-tab-admission-after-policy-changes).
The earlier combined checks below remain evidence for their stated
revisions. Current-head CI and review remain required.

Inherited voice-cleanup verification: the controlled slow-provider
regression and all 13 lifecycle tests passed on its owner and combined
tip `ab22d8ed0c09028315607414b83b375e5cc0a60a`. That repair changed only
the fixture clock advancement and its audit note.

Current head: `6f3a0b8de149fb5620f15909473eb7c4455b9824`. This remains a
single-duty PR stacked on #17793.

- Integrated pinned master `8548173fc9efdc0fa07644fb92dcc0b6851a95e5`
with normal merges. Every branch passed generated-schema checks and its
target-branch migration-order gate. Existing SQL is unchanged; the 25
stack migrations follow master’s new migration.
- Duty-specific producer coverage, lifecycle tests, and earlier failure
records:
[2026-10-24-recurring-server-sleep-stack.md](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/7e619453567e078a7d745f28bfe8e5ede571f282/doc/plans/2026-10-24-recurring-server-sleep-stack.md),

- Combined tip `51e6cbe67979b55b340ea9f0f434c5b5c682ccd6`: **355
startup/cancellation/recovery/dispatch/preservation tests**, **75
connection-management tests**, and production server typechecking pass.
These combined checks do not mean every intermediate PR independently
ran the full repository suite.
- Real master-to-stack database upgrade passes: **379 unchanged prior
migration receipts plus 25 new migrations**, with the gateway
responsibility fixture preserved.
- Owning-branch checks: 84 runner installation/settlement cases plus
runner typechecking and generated TypeScript/Rust profile agreement; 253
GitHub review workflow cases. Stop-attribution and held-worker readiness
regressions failed before their fixes.
- Failure accounting: the initial combined run passed 349 cases and
failed six idle assertions in a reused preservation database containing
old cancelled runs. Repeating the combined command with a fresh
preservation database passed. Earlier invalid project selection, merge
import/type errors, and the interrupted full local suite are not counted
as passing checks.
- **Latest-head CI and review remain required.** Prior CI findings
include GitHub idle observation, route teardown, attention cleanup,
touch-picker E2E, workspace health, and voice-cleanup timing; local
passes do not erase those failures. No full local repository-suite,
deployed sleep, fleet cost, or live Copilot qualification claim is made.


</details>

## Risks

- Existing lease owners retain destruction claims, provider identity,
stop evidence, retention policy, and pending-cleanup deadlines.
Incorrect changes here can release a live resource or lose a cleanup
obligation.
- Logged or swallowed release failures remain concrete debt. Real
retries must retain their saved floor across unrelated hints.
- In-process signals do not cover independent SQL or other replicas
without ingress.
- This delegates only periodic environment settlement. Runtime-service
and agent-status duties remain separate. Existing Cloud blockers remain;
no deployed sleep, database suspension, external alarm coverage, or cost
savings is claimed.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, code execution, real
PostgreSQL tests, and GitHub tools. The exact runtime model identifier
and context-window size are not exposed in this session.

829f9e7eaf fix(server): settle Muse terminal assignments from committed changes (#17793)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/12/changes/paperclip/12
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Its external-agent module owns Muse assignments, operation receipts,
and worker holds.
> - Running assignments and retained terminal history must not cause an
empty maintenance scan every five seconds.
> - Terminal run changes and operation results already have durable
database transactions.
> - This pull request wakes the existing maintenance worker from those
commits and reconstructs work at startup.
> - The worker retries only concrete settlement debt. It retains
qualification deadlines and authority checks.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #17772. This is slice 57. Parent #17772 has merged.
Related: #17000, #17525, #17752, #17758. The publication targets master
and preserves the merged parent.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Muse terminal assignment settlement and the existing Muse maintenance
worker.

**Current behavior**

A running assignment can keep maintenance scanning every five seconds.
Terminal reconciliation rewrites unchanged history. Native finalization
also calls that reconciliation during periodic replay. Discovery
excludes a revoked original binding even when its assignment still needs
settlement.

**Proposed behavior**

Committed run changes and operation receipts wake the existing worker
with the original company, run or binding identity. Startup reconstructs
actionable work from existing rows. Maintenance processes bounded
batches and disarms after settlement. Default live and manual callbacks
remain. The periodic callback delegates this one duty.

**Reason and benefit**

Configured but idle instances stop querying for this obligation. Late
receipts, restarts, drain and historical bindings still have recovery
paths. No table or independent timer is added.

**Breaking changes**

No schema, endpoint or provider protocol changes. Explicit manual
reconciliation retains its unbounded default. This does not alter Cloud
sleep admission or claim that all instance work can sleep.

## What Changed

- Add an owner predicate shared by discovery and locked settlement.
Fenced private-worker uncertainty remains held without an automatic
retry loop.
- Preserve original binding generation and company/agent/run identity,
including revoked bindings. Fence only the terminal assignment during
reconciliation.
- Extend existing maintenance with scoped hints, bounded batches,
concrete-debt retry, startup reconstruction and quiet drain behavior.
- Register notifications inside existing terminal, projection,
cancellation, operation-result and send-failure transactions. Keep
qualification and OAuth signals explicitly global when coalesced with
scoped changes.
- Serialize only four domain IDs. Real native-finalizer tests caught and
prevent a circular-object serialization failure at this boundary.
- Use existing restore/worktree suppression and settings reactivation.
Delegate both periodic finalizer branches while retaining resource
callbacks and default live/manual settlement.
- Add the producer audit and regression evidence in
`doc/plans/2026-10-26-muse-terminal-settlement-sleep.md`.

## Verification

Accepted production source: `584015018ed4a9d57d2b0f192b75847503b54e53`.
Publication head: `305014b030d6c5eb891c70bc57036f4192d4fdad`. Normal
adoption of the actual parent squash preserves the complete accepted
child tree. Only audit text, a migration-count clarification, and the
proved Photon test extension follow.

- **3,715 distinct cases in 52 complete server files pass**, plus **20
selected chat cases** (3,735 selected total). The main 49-file batch
passes 3,008; process recovery passes 410; review response passes 273;
the full Photon file passes 24. The other 1,794 chat cases were not run
locally.
- **Quiet producer proof:** moving only the Muse fanout outside its
parent guard produces six candidate SELECTs and fails the regression.
Keeping the guard yields zero and still settles a real terminal run. The
same test hash spans the controlled red/green pair.
- **Photon review evidence:** repeated active callbacks produce zero
settlement hints/candidate SQL. Three concurrent attention recoveries
produce exactly one of each. The existing locked attention guard was
correct; production needed no fix. The parent security check accepted
the resolved finding before merge. This PR keeps the additional
settlement queue in the existing regression.
- **Static checks pass:** database build; server typecheck/build; module
boundaries; migration order; current Copilot identity. Packages equal
the accepted parent byte for byte. No new live provider qualification is
claimed.
- **Fixtures and failures:** 34 fresh PostgreSQL 17 fixtures have 412
applied migration receipts through tag 0413_tired_kronos, plus fresh
per-call helper fixtures. All 52 original test hashes restore exactly.
The additional Photon test hash matches its passing proof. Earlier
remote chat passive-idle failure remains recorded; both passive/missing
cases pass in the new selection. Parent handoff timeout/fresh-file-pass
accounting remains in its audit. No assertion or timeout was weakened.
- [Integration and quiet producer
audit](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/305014b030d6c5eb891c70bc57036f4192d4fdad/doc/plans/2026-10-26-muse-terminal-settlement-sleep.md#current-master-integration-and-quiet-producers-2026-10-29).
Fresh CI, security, and exact-head Greptile 5/5 must pass before merge.

## Risks

- In-process signals do not capture independent SQL or other replicas.
Supported external events still need ingress.
- Pending assignments and operation receipts retain their original
binding identity. A new agent configuration cannot take their ownership.
- Genuine qualification, OAuth, and recovery deadlines remain
obligations. They must not be discarded merely to make the worker quiet.
- The parent coarse-hint guard prevents recurring Muse discovery; real
company/binding authority changes retain their signals.
- No full local repository suite, full chat suite, live Muse or Copilot
qualification, deployed sleep, database suspension, external alarm
coverage, or cost savings is claimed. Existing Cloud blockers remain.

4d0847c4ca fix(server): settle external conversations from committed work (#17772)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/6/changes/paperclip/6
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and the tasks that they execute.
> - External conversations must become idle after an authorized response
is published and all related work is complete.
> - Native replay and stranded-task recovery still discover this
settlement work through recurring scans.
> - A new deadline worker must preserve response ordering, monitor
handoffs, and unfinished work.
> - This pull request gives settlement one shared readiness predicate
and activates its worker from committed changes.
> - Existing rows provide recovery truth. No new table or per-feature
timer is added.
> - The benefit is a settlement worker that becomes quiet and resumes
when relevant work changes.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17758. This is slice 56. Slice 55 has merged. Related: #17606
(chat milestones), #17663 (bounded run reads), #17665 (monitor proof),
and #13809 (answered Slack conversation lifecycle). The provider
applicability remains Slack and Speko-owned conversations. This does not
extend Telegram settlement from #16559.

**What happened?**

Conversation settlement depended on periodic native replay and generic
task recovery. An exhausted monitor also cleared its schedule before
recovery admission. During that gap, an answered conversation could look
finished. Failed or deferred admission lost the monitor schedule.

**Expected behavior**

Relevant committed changes activate settlement. The worker uses the
owning service's evidence and becomes quiet when no settlement is owed.
Monitor recovery stays pending until admission, and restart does not
admit an already accepted recovery twice.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create an active external conversation with a successful run and an
authorized published response.
2. Keep execution, approval, a goal, or a monitor pending. Let the
settlement worker become quiet.
3. Resolve that prerequisite through its owning service. Verify that the
conversation settles without another periodic sweep.
4. Delay or fail exhausted-monitor recovery admission. Verify that the
monitor remains pending and the conversation cannot settle during the
handoff.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Accepted production source: `50f4432ed88537b8d522cf1dce24c33588db0bac`.
Parent #17758 merged as `8ac5a128e66fb672e88106412f76cf278599bfc4`. The
publication adopts that actual squash through a normal merge with an
unchanged complete child tree.

## What Changed

- Preserve quiet after coarse company-only maintenance hints. The shared
inbound-notice and response-availability helpers keep settlement enabled
by default. Only the milestone dispatcher suppresses their duplicate
settlement fanout. Its scoped issue-review signal and the explicit
company-authority signal still wake real work. Four database cases prove
both quiet and real company-wide producer delivery.
- Preserve source-generation checks for chat handoff,
task-before-comment locking, issue-scoped decision invalidation, and
current conversation event columns from master.
- Track initial external conversation settlement through shutdown
without blocking HTTP readiness on endpoint or task locks.

- Reuse the real queue's coalesced recovery receipt after restart,
without admitting the same monitor recovery again.

- Share the existing conversation readiness predicate between bounded
discovery and locked settlement. Preserve current provider policy,
run/publication proof, company boundaries, and endpoint-to-issue lock
order.
- Register a scoped deadline worker through the delivery coordinator.
Preserve startup, restore/worktree suppression, drain/resume, failure
recovery, and joined shutdown.
- Extend existing review, milestone, wake-notice, and finalization
signals. Add notifications at independent issue, comment, goal, session,
and wake-receipt unblocks.
- Keep monitor owner recovery pending until guarded admission. Reuse an
accepted receipt for the same monitor schedule after restart, even when
its limit reason changes; retain compatibility with legacy receipt keys.
Commit board escalation and its monitor clear together.
- Delegate periodic native settlement while preserving resource
callbacks. Keep direct/manual defaults and preserve generic recovery
ordering with a read-only readiness guard.
- Add the producer and lifecycle audit in
`doc/plans/2026-10-26-external-conversation-settlement-sleep.md` and
update the stack ledger.

## Verification

Accepted production source: `50f4432ed88537b8d522cf1dce24c33588db0bac`.
Publication head: `b256bb52647affd9f5279ea8c40f48bbe40f031f`.
The complete accepted child tree stays unchanged when adopting merged
parent #17758. This publication adds only the audit document.

- **3,129 distinct cases in 37 complete server files pass**, plus **18
selected chat-response cases** (3,147 selected cases). The other 1,796
chat cases were not run locally. Full settlement, queue, scheduling,
run-state, goals, interactions, task Retry, decision targets, status
reassessment, workspace, process recovery, and review consumers are
covered.
- **Preserved failure:** the first 35-file command passed 2,445 cases
and timed out one restored-work handoff at its existing 15-second limit.
That aggregate command failed. The unchanged full 89-case actions file
then passed on a fresh fixture; the affected case took 22 ms. Root cause
was not established. No timeout or assertion changed. The 34 other files
passed originally. Distinct counts exclude duplicate actions passes.
Fresh CI remains a separate gate.
- **Indirect wake regression:** the original unconditional baseline
failed two quiet checks. Guards alone left the chat case failing with
three candidate queries. The final controlled indirect baseline fails
one of four cases; the repair passes all four with the same test hash.
Positive controls preserve real company-only producers.
- **Source and fixture controls:** all 38 selected test files restore to
their exact committed hashes after fixture imports. Fresh PostgreSQL 17
fixtures use 413 migrations. All five manual merge resolutions preserve
current authority, locking, and event-column contracts.
- **Static checks pass:** database build; server typecheck and build;
module boundaries; migration order; Copilot profile identity. Runner
packages equal the accepted parent byte for byte. No new Runner/package

<details><summary>Earlier revision verification and preserved failure
history</summary>

Receiver failure fairness: a controlled 1,100 ms batch reproduced a
30-second delay for healthy due receivers. The worker now supplies its
existing per-item deadline through `nextRunAtOnError`. All 20 receiver
lifecycle tests pass on the owner and combined tip
`31c12f1d68ff4a51e06fc2be2abf2c2aee9f9d3a`; server production
typechecking passes on the owner. The failed receiver retains its own
backoff, and settled receivers return to zero recurring SQL. The
five-second assertion budget is unchanged. See [the owning
audit](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/83204a67880d980cfbea3771cee19a3cda0022b7/doc/plans/2026-10-25-chat-receiver-discovery-sleep-audit.md#healthy-receiver-progress-after-a-slow-failed-batch).
Current-head CI and review remain required.

Approved delegated Test-tab calls now evaluate caller and target
policies in the existing claim transaction. Real HTTP regressions first
showed a missing caller charge and shared-limit self-rejection. All 78
connection-management cases and 92 gateway cases now pass on the owning
branch, along with server production typechecking. All 78
connection-management cases also pass at combined tip
`d25f830db89c1623bff3547bfc68015c1c66e0cf`. The three new cases cover
shared charges, separate charges, rollback on denial, duplicate
approval, and rejection of a later authorized call. Intermediate
counter/identity fixture failures and a reused-database Slack collision
are recorded in [the owning
audit](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/ef9ae5767430d0093efc736ae0b303ba5afaae65/doc/idle-approved-tool-recovery.md#delegated-test-tab-admission-after-policy-changes).
The earlier combined checks below remain evidence for their stated
revisions. Current-head CI and review remain required.

Inherited voice-cleanup verification: the controlled slow-provider
regression and all 13 lifecycle tests passed on its owner and combined
tip `ab22d8ed0c09028315607414b83b375e5cc0a60a`. That repair changed only
the fixture clock advancement and its audit note.

Current head: `83204a67880d980cfbea3771cee19a3cda0022b7`. This remains a
single-duty PR stacked on #17758.

- Integrated pinned master `8548173fc9efdc0fa07644fb92dcc0b6851a95e5`
with normal merges. Every branch passed generated-schema checks and its
target-branch migration-order gate. Existing SQL is unchanged; the 25
stack migrations follow master’s new migration.
- Duty-specific producer coverage, lifecycle tests, and earlier failure
records:
[2026-10-24-recurring-server-sleep-stack.md](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/d6d8e4ffa6b330ebf4647aec997ee2dde6abc321/doc/plans/2026-10-24-recurring-server-sleep-stack.md),
[2026-10-26-external-conversation-settlement-sleep.md](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/d6d8e4ffa6b330ebf4647aec997ee2dde6abc321/doc/plans/2026-10-26-external-conversation-settlement-sleep.md).
- Combined tip `51e6cbe67979b55b340ea9f0f434c5b5c682ccd6`: **355
startup/cancellation/recovery/dispatch/preservation tests**, **75
connection-management tests**, and production server typechecking pass.
These combined checks do not mean every intermediate PR independently
ran the full repository suite.
- Real master-to-stack database upgrade passes: **379 unchanged prior
migration receipts plus 25 new migrations**, with the gateway
responsibility fixture preserved.
- Owning-branch checks: 84 runner installation/settlement cases plus
runner typechecking and generated TypeScript/Rust profile agreement; 253
GitHub review workflow cases. Stop-attribution and held-worker readiness
regressions failed before their fixes.
- Failure accounting: the initial combined run passed 349 cases and
failed six idle assertions in a reused preservation database containing
old cancelled runs. Repeating the combined command with a fresh
preservation database passed. Earlier invalid project selection, merge
import/type errors, and the interrupted full local suite are not counted
as passing checks.
- **Latest-head CI and review remain required.** Prior CI findings
include GitHub idle observation, route teardown, attention cleanup,
touch-picker E2E, workspace health, and voice-cleanup timing; local
passes do not erase those failures. No full local repository-suite,
deployed sleep, fleet cost, or live Copilot qualification claim is made.


</details>

## Risks

- Signals cover supported in-process writers. They do not supply change
capture for independent SQL or other replicas.
- Real company-wide changes can inspect active candidates. Coarse
maintenance hints do not activate settlement. Configured idle and
retained history must remain quiet.
- Monitor receipt binding and admission order must preserve company,
agent, issue, and exact schedule identity. Current parent handoff locks
and source-generation checks remain intact.
- The local restored-work timeout is retained above. A fresh full-file
pass does not establish its cause; latest-head CI must also pass.
- Generic recovery and Muse/resource duties remain separate slices. This
does not make the whole server idle. Existing Cloud sleep blockers
remain. No deployed sleep, database suspension, external alarm coverage,
fleet cost, or live provider qualification claim is made.

8ac5a128e6 fix(server): resolve native finalization notices from committed wakes (#17758)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native finalization can commit before its recovery notice is
resolved.
> - The periodic orphan pass revisits committed runs to resolve those
notices.
> - Retained completed history should not require repeated discovery.
> - This PR moves that one duty to transaction wakes and concrete
failure retries.
> - Existing notice rows reconstruct work after restart. The action
service still owns resolution.
> - Other completion and resource duties keep their current recovery
paths.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17752 (stack parent: committed run projection), #17748
(accepted-result commit), and #17734 (workspace finalization). These are
distinct recovery obligations. This slice incorporates parent #17752 at
`a49a2dac13b0e1c19da5d3d6b435c781703b1c0b`, now merged as
`50fe32684d2d4e1db129e3c1bb455571344a0c09`. Related #17724 retires
obsolete exact-session notices for terminal runs with no result and
preserves their replay hold. This slice resolves notices after a result
committed; it does not change that no-replay policy.

**Current behavior**
Committed native finalization recovery repeatedly inspects active
watchdog notices. A notice can also be updated in place to describe a
different run, so resolving a previously selected ID alone is unsafe.

**Proposed behavior**
Wake a scoped worker from relevant committed writes. Reconstruct active
finalization notices at startup. Resolve only the current notice after
the native owner rechecks its binding under lifecycle locks. Stop
scheduled work when no matching obligation remains.

**Reason and benefit**
Notice recovery becomes quiet after settlement and reacts to real
changes without a polling delay. Reused notices remain attached to their
current incident. This does not claim that every remaining server duty
or the host can sleep yet.

## What Changed

- Track the initial recovery-notice sweep through shutdown without
blocking HTTP readiness on task locks.
- Require issue/run scope for ordinary finalization fanout. Routine
company-only hints leave dormant notices quiet; dedicated owner and
explicit settings signals retain their scopes.

- Extract the native finalization notice predicate and resolution owner.
Keep the existing recovery-action service responsible for writing the
resolution.
- Bind candidates by company, issue and run. Require a committed result
and an active or escalated finalization notice. Exclude held ownership,
pending status effects and unfinished run projection.
- Recheck coordinator, issue, run and matching actions under locks. A
newer incident cannot be resolved from a stale candidate snapshot.
- Use the shared scoped worker, transaction signals, retry backoff and
lifecycle handling. Add no table, per-feature timer or provider branch.
- Signal action insertion, update, supersession and resolution;
finalization and effect changes; run projection and ownership release;
issue changes; settings activation; and the recovery route that reopens
an action.
- Preserve no-op resolution quiet. Serialize only the three supported
notification IDs, even when a caller supplies a larger internal object.
- Delegate only notice resolution from the periodic path. Keep
manual/default finalization and other completion/resource work.
- Add real PostgreSQL producer, concurrency and lifecycle coverage and a
detailed audit.

## Verification

- Current local source `730e00a7b007a36d188ca0a328ef050d3a25d1ee`
incorporates the parent with a normal merge. All 1,209 parent-only,
eight owned-only and 12 automatic shared paths are preserved. The two
manual paths retain both chat import sets and scope the new notice
fanout. The entire package tree matches parent profile 80 byte-for-byte.
- Controlled real-database regression: original notice-only unscoped
fanout produces three candidate SELECTs for routine company hints. The
same zero-query assertion passes after restoring scoped fanout. The real
notice writer then creates and resolves an action for a committed run
and returns to quiet. Both phases restore production bytes exactly; the
22 cases outside this focused pattern are not counted as passing there.
- The complete main command passes **1,873 cases in 21 files**, without
skips, in 309.69 seconds. It includes all 23 notice-worker cases, full
presentation/ownership read coverage, 88 startup cases, and the
projection/result/physical-work consumers. Process recovery passes 410
in 163.54 seconds and external-chat response passes 273 in 53.48
seconds. Total complete-file acceptance: **2,556 cases in 23 complete
files**, with no skips. The additional focused chat selection passes 18
cases in 13.44 seconds; 1,796 unselected chat cases do not count. Total
selected passes: **2,574**. Normal merge
`a0f2b3f4348b078219a53d8cc135c84202ba505e` adopts actual parent ancestry
with this complete tested child tree unchanged.
- The chat selection covers the real reply/notice row-lock regression,
Slack and Telegram response recovery, current-authority denial cases,
exact canonical response binding and internal GitHub attachment
navigation. Other cases in the giant chat file remain unselected; this
is not full chat-suite acceptance.
- Production server typecheck, build, module boundaries, migration order
and source identity checks pass. Twenty dedicated PostgreSQL 17
databases use the unchanged migration 413 schema. Embedded-only
invocations use the existing fresh-per-call recovery helper. All
temporary imports restore exactly and all 24 selected test hashes match
after completion. No assertion or timeout is relaxed.
- Parent package acceptance remains applicable: 130 passing
installation/compatibility/transport cases, 22 installed ACPX/Grok
contract cases and 26 native-provider Rust cases. One existing opt-in
closed Pi snapshot case is skipped because its distribution root is
unset. This does not qualify a live provider.
- Failure history and scope are retained in
`doc/plans/2026-10-26-native-recovery-notice-sleep-audit.md`.
Current-head acceptance: all 57 checks are clean, including protected CI
and security. Greptile gives 5/5 on
`2a8777bbed8b1e10810e3d6d99aae3f25b4854ef`, with no actionable findings.
Prior scores do not substitute. No Ponytail verdict is present under the
authorized missing-review policy. No full local repository suite,
deployed sleep, expanded Cloud wake coverage or measured savings is
claimed.

## Risks

- Resolution takes coordinator, issue, run and action locks in the
native recovery order. Contention must preserve the current incident;
the real concurrent-upsert and competing-resolver cases exercise this
boundary.
- Process-local signals cover instrumented application writers. They do
not add support for independent SQL writers or replicas without
supported ingress. Startup reconstructs the existing durable rows.
- Completed finalization is not proof that external conversation
settlement, Muse reconciliation or physical cleanup finished. Those
obligations retain their owners and recovery paths.
- Discovery uses narrow keyset pages. No fleet benchmark, host
suspension or cost reduction is claimed. Cloud wake coverage remains
unchanged.
- Parent #17752 has merged. This PR targets master at
`50fe32684d2d4e1db129e3c1bb455571344a0c09`. Fresh current-head CI and
review must pass before the authorized protected merge.
