DottaandPaperclip e2c7d81067 fix(server): keep reply recovery off web startup critical path (#19769)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The server restores retained native replies during startup.
> - Fair reply recovery can admit more due work while an earlier group
remains active.
> - Waiting for that whole pass can hold web readiness on unrelated
retained replies.
> - This pull request tracks reply recovery with the existing background
startup owner.
> - The server can become ready while idle and shutdown still account
for that work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #19726.

**What happened?**

The startup path awaited the native response worker's first pass. That
pass can remain active while fair dispatch admits later replies. A
controlled `startServer` regression stays in recovery until the held
reply pass finishes. A deployed backlog supported investigating this
boundary, but no captured runtime stack proves it caused the observed
startup delay.

**Expected behavior**

Retained reply recovery must keep its authority checks, retry deadlines,
and fair dispatch. Its completion must not be a condition for unrelated
web readiness. Active recovery must still block idle and be joined at
shutdown.

**Steps to reproduce**

Run the startup regression with a held native response worker promise.
Before this change, `startServer` does not complete. After this change,
startup reports ready, idle work remains active, and shutdown waits
until the promise settles.

## What Changed

- Track the initial native response pass with the existing heartbeat
scheduler work owner.
- Extend the actual startup wiring test to cover readiness, idle
accounting, worker stop, and shutdown join.
- Document the response recovery boundary for idle and readiness.

## Verification

- Mandatory agent preflight passed on macOS arm64 with Node 26.4.0.
- True RED: the new startup case failed because `startServer` had not
completed while reply work was held. The same case passed after the
change.
- Final head `279e97587b` passed the full startup test file: 123/123
tests.
- The unchanged real PostgreSQL later-page case passed. It holds 100 old
publication rows, publishes the independent 101st reply once while the
first pass remains pending, then verifies completion and no recurring
idle SQL.
- Final-head CI passed: 60 successful checks and 3 skipped checks,
including `ci / verify`. Fresh Greptile is 5/5 with no open threads.
- Server TypeScript check passed: `node node_modules/typescript/bin/tsc
-p server/tsconfig.json --noEmit`.
- Initial test-launch and missing generated SDK setup failures were
resolved before the regression ran. They are not RED or pass evidence.
- No deployment or live recovery action was performed for this PR.

Focused commands, from `server/`:

```sh
node ../node_modules/vitest/vitest.mjs run src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts --maxWorkers=1 --no-file-parallelism
node ../cli/node_modules/tsx/dist/cli.mjs ../packages/db/src/test-postgres-command.ts -- node ../node_modules/vitest/vitest.mjs run src/services/native-runtime/native-response-publication-retry.test.ts -t 'publishes a later-page reply while older publication groups remain contended' --maxWorkers=1 --no-file-parallelism --hookTimeout 90000
```

## Risks

Web readiness can complete before retained reply recovery finishes. The
existing scheduler still owns errors, retries, scope checks, and
delivery authority. The existing idle tracker and shutdown join retain
in-flight work. Other startup recovery gates stay in place.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, `gpt-6.1-sol`, with reasoning, tool use, and code
execution. The context window size is not exposed.

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

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

**What happened?**

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

**Expected behavior**

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

**Steps to reproduce**

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

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 124b2cd0ad fix(server): certify background deadlines for idle tenants (#19001)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Background services own future checks, retries, and recovery work.
> - An idle tenant can stop only when a durable wake covers its
remaining duties.
> - The current alarm catalog covers several domains but leaves these
owners blocked.
> - A saved future timestamp alone cannot prove that reconstruction or
admitted work has settled.
> - This pull request binds durable domain snapshots to the actual
registered worker revisions.
> - The tenant can hand off supported future duties and retain all
checks for uncertain or active work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No matching public issue was found. Related work: [domain deadline
handoff #18656](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/18656),
[owned blocker diagnostics
#18632](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/18632), and
[completed history proof
#18646](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/18646). The
separate [native idle-session change
#18988](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/18988) covers
runtime retirement. [Far-future retry re-probes
#13534](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/13534) changes
recovery responsiveness after an upstream success; this change preserves
existing retry decisions.

**What happened?**

Future status-card, external-object, skill-sync, watchdog, retry, and
quota duties lacked complete owner-bound coverage in the idle deadline
proof. A completed quota task could also retain its monitor policy and
timestamp and remain blocked after the scheduler had disarmed it.

**Expected behavior**

A settled registered owner can hand off its exact supported future
deadline. Active work, dirty reconstruction, transaction uncertainty,
changed revisions, claims, unknown state, and unsupported duties keep
the tenant awake. Completed history retains its data and stops recurring
work when the owner has no remaining duty.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Produce a supported future duty through its normal service.
2. Let the registered worker finish reconstruction and admitted work.
3. Request an owned idle report with the negotiated domain deadline
catalog.
4. Check the saved earliest deadline and generation before durable alarm
registration.
5. Stop and reconstruct the worker. Check that ordinary admission and
claims resume useful work once due.
6. Complete a quota task. Keep its saved policy and timestamp. Check
that linked unfinished work still blocks sleep and that settled history
does not.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The owned patch was qualified at
`699c8569fa34338dd75cdc5731381ec1e2efdb45`. Publication head
`491fac368ee72eaac8ae105d53e6bf6b305d8a6a` normally merges actual master
`039e0dad2c51c80251e1302a19c5566e039c357a`. All 43 owned files are
byte-identical. All 29 new upstream paths are preserved. The later
normal current-master integration is
`8c912e1ba4fc66397a7341ade59373af8075068f`, described separately below.

**Deployment mode**

Source checkout with real PostgreSQL 17 and a controlled local Node
process. No deployed alarm, tenant suspension, database suspension, or
fleet result is claimed.

## What Changed

- Add registered-worker reconciliation revisions and invalidate them on
stop.
- Keep status-card, external-object, and skill deadline interpretation
with their owners.
- Reuse the watchdog classifier against the supplied database snapshot.
- Validate the exact saved retry run and paired queued wake.
- Validate legacy quota source bindings and the current assignee or
reviewer policy.
- Preserve common issue scope, dependency, sibling, and state checks for
covered waits.
- Compose normalized owner snapshots within the existing bounded
deadline proof and recheck revisions after inspection.
- Bind actual service and worker instances from server startup. Missing
bindings preserve existing blockers.
- Retain completed quota policy and timestamps while independently
rejecting linked unfinished runs or wakes.
- Block unconsumed budget evaluation inputs through the owning queue
predicate. Accounting policy and settlement stay unchanged.
- Bind completed quota history through fixed-size UUID-array parameters,
preserve exact company/task/source associations, and guard external
references before the run-ID join.
- Batch watchdog subtrees and shared classifier facts without changing
the 64-query or two-second proof budget; preserve exact company pairing
for first-run evidence.
- Extend production-path regression controls and document supported
coverage and limits.

## Verification

Current integration head: `688abc6cac6016b9fb50e5832f81e2975ed5d49f`.
Fresh exact-head checks completed with **58 successes, three intentional
skips and one neutral review**, including aggregate `ci / verify`. The
complete current Greptile review is **5/5**. The complete current
Ponytail verdict is **Ship (4/5)**, with only optional cleanup of an
unused MCP proof input; both prior correctness findings are resolved.
All review threads and nested pages were inspected. The normal master
merges preserve the registered retry deadline owner and current startup
completion log after the same readiness await. The earlier focused
evidence below remains tied to its tested source revisions.


Current-master integration `8c912e1ba4fc66397a7341ade59373af8075068f`:

- Normally merge actual master
`46fb933b0155d183ce64a8bdc4950d1b58c926f6`. Every nonoverlapping tree
blob retains its owning parent across 14,044 paths. All 42 owner-only
files and 15 critical binding/proof/readiness files remain
byte-identical. Three automatic overlaps preserve the existing watchdog
binding, conservative unavailable-reader fallback and optional actual
owner arguments. The two scoped-deadline conflicts retain the entire
upstream resource-reservation/mid-pass admission/abort algorithm inside
the existing reconciliation revision/running/failure fence, with both
parent test sets.
- Actual TypeScript 7.0.2 server noEmit passed in 9.434 seconds, normal
source declaration layers in 12.102 seconds, and four selected
test/helper/config layers extending the actual CI configuration in 3.167
seconds. No compiler option weakening, heap override, donor declarations
or SDK replacement stub.
- Focused PG0 controls passed: 102 scheduler/proof/owner controls in
16.451 seconds, including all 21 scoped-deadline cases; 121 startup
controls; and all 107 unchanged instance-settings route cases in 6.456
seconds. The latter first hit a local prewire-guard
listener-registration race. Only the ignored guard was corrected to
register the same actual OS-bound server port immediately after native
listen returns. Closed, unknown, foreign, offhost and PG destinations
remain blocked. Original failure evidence is retained; product code and
assertions were unchanged.
- The exact current UI policy command now reports zero findings (0.362
seconds); its seven scanner controls pass. The earlier dependent PR used
an old scanner/source baseline under a newly enforcing trusted workflow
and reported 397 findings. Carrying the genuine current master resolves
that mismatch without editing unrelated UI sites or relaxing the gate.
- Every meaningful worker checked its executing PID/thread/preload hash
and matching receipt. PG0 controls opened no PostgreSQL sockets; all
owned processes exited. Original dependency-cache/DNS, ignored-harness
syntax/type and guard failures remain separate from product results.
- This is fresh semantic and focused runtime qualification, not a local
whole-repository or current-head PostgreSQL acceptance rerun. The
upstream workspace-busy parked-retry/terminal-holder notification path
remains unchanged by this merge and needs its separate current-graph
producer check. Historical six-case/scale results below stay tied to
their measured sources. A matching controlled default-cadence follow-up
is in #19191; no fresh current-head two-cycle or deployed suspension
claim follows from this merge.
- All 59 exact-head check contexts now pass (55 success, one neutral,
three intentional skips), plus the legacy security status. The complete
edited Greptile review is 5/5 for this exact commit, with all
root/nested pages inspected and no unresolved threads. Ponytail stopped
without completing its new turn; it supplied no new verdict or finding.
Prior actual findings remain addressed. Earlier scores/checks below
belong to their explicit earlier commits.


On frozen clean merged source `699c8569fa`:

- Real PostgreSQL acceptance: **6/6 passed**,83.483 seconds wall. Actual
retry producer creates the exact saved run/wake; stopped and
reconstructed owner resumes through current admission, one durable
start, real local process output and normal task completion. Includes
cancellation, drain arrival, retained quota history with queued-run/wake
negatives, watchdog review settlement and budget-input
empty/pending/consumed control using the actual owner.
- Affected coordinator, deadline, scoped-deadline, recovery and
composed-proof controls: **78/78 in five files passed**,32.114 seconds
wall, worker 1/no file parallelism.
- `pnpm exec tsc --noEmit -p server/tsconfig.json`: **passed**,17.467
seconds. Native TypeScript 7.0.2 and Node 24.22.2.
- PostgreSQL tests use one dedicated test database, matching
fixture/admin URLs, pool limit four, one worker, and no embedded
fallback. Every run recorded unchanged source hashes and a clean
checkout.
- The eight-second real-clock retry is a domain execution check. It is
below the Cloud minimum wake lead and is not a positive accepted hosted
sleep cycle.
- The completed quota-history product failure and original
fixture/protocol failures were preserved; the owning-reader fix passed a
real PostgreSQL red/green regression before the fresh merged six-case
pass.
- After runtime completion, the dedicated database had zero other
clients and no owned runtime processes. All three qualification process
PIDs exited. The coordinator independently audits and drops the
database.
- Comment-only cleanup has equal strict TypeScript parser ASTs across 15
files. The final lexical audit finds no added comments relative to
actual master. `git diff --check` passed.
- Earlier retry fixtures omitted responsible-user membership, advanced
JavaScript time past the real PostgreSQL lease clock, or produced stdout
without normal task completion. Corrected fixtures use real membership,
an eight-second real deadline, and ordinary task comment/completion. The
last case exposed legitimate disposition repair rather than duplicate
retry promotion.
- The quota and watchdog controls first ran before admitted work or the
existing 30-second reconstruction duty settled. The stronger tests
require an interim blocked report and then exact settled-owner proof.
Production deadlines were not changed. The separate
completed-quota-history defect was fixed in its reader and verified with
linked unfinished-run and wake controls.
- The status/object and skill owners reviewed the actual final startup,
route and post-backup bindings. Their domain source evidence carries
where token-equivalent. The master coordinator coalescing change was
reviewed separately. Historical domain PostgreSQL results are not
presented as fresh full-suite results on this head.

The later master merge adds retry predecessor cleanup checks under the
existing issue claim lock. The source audit confirms unchanged saved
deadlines and run/wake identities. The three actual retry
lifecycle/cancellation/drain cases passed on the batched candidate with
this parent (31.817 seconds). Those local dependency controls preceded
the current exact-head remote run. Native backup preservation and
TestOps changes from master are retained. No pass is inferred for
changed dependency behavior solely from unchanged owned files.

Review repair published as `643f1e7400`:

- The original reader returned `unknown` after seven actual watchdog
reviews settled across seven companies. The unchanged composed-report
regression passed after batching; the final reader passed in 61.841
seconds, including active queued-work and stopped-owner rejection.
- A separate two-company red/green control rejects terminal-run context
from another company as first-run grace evidence. Shared facts are
serialized once, with per-root IDs and review summaries.
- The affected recovery, proof and diagnostic unit controls passed 47/47
(14.575 seconds). Startup owner-contract fixtures passed 121/121 (10.589
seconds).
- Diagnostic PostgreSQL controls passed7/7 (12.406 seconds), including
the normal budget-input producer and its exact blocker reason. Initial
empty-state setup uses the same cleanup as per-case teardown when a
dedicated test database is reused.
- Actual repository `pnpm exec tsc --noEmit -p server/tsconfig.json`
passed 12.710 seconds with no heap override. Final source has no added
code comments; whitespace checks pass.
- The original query-budget failure, two-company discriminator, initial
cross-suite fixture failure and an interrupted incorrect local-driver
selector are retained separately. The interrupted run is not a pass.
Independent cleanup found zero owned clients or runtime processes.

Quota-scale repair published as `6696a37f8a`:

- The exact 10,000-row completed-history case reproduced
`MAX_PARAMETERS_EXCEEDED`:90,002 bound parameters exceeded the driver's
65,534 limit, and the composed report returned `unknown` despite settled
owners. Original failure and actual driver diagnostics are retained.
- Fixed pending-work queries use three typed UUID-array parameters plus
the result limit, keeping exact company/issue/source tuple bindings. The
primary run-ID column stays uncast; a guarded CASE validates the raw
external reference before conversion. The 10,000-row cap and
64-query/two-second proof budget are unchanged.
- The same 10,000-row composed-report case passed 18.860 seconds, with
unfinished run/wake rejection, malformed-reference safety and
conservative 10,001-row overflow. Its fixture derives retained history
from the actual quota producer and normal task completion, expands valid
persisted issue/source pairs, then starts the actual registered owners.
- The existing actual quota producer case passed 14.187 seconds,
including exact future deadline, retained completion history, unfinished
work, real foreign-company source references and noncanonical/malformed
references.
- Affected owner/proof controls passed 22/22 (26.444 seconds).
Production server noEmit passed 16.039 seconds.
- CI on 643 identified TS7034/TS7005 in the settled-watchdog fixture's
initially untyped collection. It is now explicitly typed. A separate
affected-entry semantic check extending the repository's actual
`server/src/__tests__/tsconfig.json` passed 15.093 seconds: six affected
tests, two owner files, ambient declarations and current imported
source, with unchanged strict/module/lib/path settings. The production
server config excludes that test directory and is not presented as
test-layer proof. No custom suppression or replacement SDK stub was
added.
- All runs were sequential with pool max 4, worker 1,
source/config/command hashes and cleared inherited
provider/LIVE/other-database variables. Cleanup found zero owned
database clients or local runtime processes. At prior head
`6696a37f8a5718cd0f79054969a0084462d41d47`, all required CI gates pass.
The exact-head inventory has 55 successes, one neutral review and three
intentional skips. Greptile is 5/5. The complete latest Ponytail verdict
confirms the quota finding is fixed; its only remaining note is optional
unused MCP proof state, not a behavior defect. All three review threads
are resolved. The earlier 643 result remains historical.

The repository-wide typecheck, tests, build and browser gates passed in
the prior `6696a37f8a5718cd0f79054969a0084462d41d47` CI run. The new
`8c912e1ba4fc66397a7341ade59373af8075068f` full CI also passes. They
were not run as a full local workspace command in the focused PostgreSQL
lease. Local evidence above uses bounded external databases and does not
claim embedded-cluster, live-provider or deployed-alarm qualification.

## Risks

- An unsupported or uncertain owner state must remain blocked. An
optimistic exemption could lose work while compute is stopped.
- Changes during reconstruction or inspection must invalidate the proof.
A memory-only timer is not durable alarm coverage.
- Current authorization, budgets, cancellation, accounting, and resource
ownership still apply on dispatch. The proof does not grant execution
authority.
- The supported writer model uses in-process transaction signals and
startup/resume reconstruction. Independent SQL writers and other
replicas need an explicit wake contract.
- Native, review, coalesced, and taskless retry variants remain
conservative until their owner cases qualify. Reviewer quota and hosted
alarm qualification remain open.
- The shared catalog remains opt-in. Legacy callers and missing owner
bindings retain their old blockers.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` was the configured model for the delegated service
implementations and reviews. OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, performed
managing review and integration. Both used repository tools and code
execution. The exact served backend snapshots and context-window limits
were not exposed.

DottaandPaperclip 60a99307b3 fix(server): settle cleanup after reusable sandbox destruction (#18633)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A web-server replacement must preserve work and let completed
cleanup become idle.
> - Several task turns can use one remote sandbox through recorded lease
handoffs.
> - The last owner can destroy that sandbox while an earlier owner still
waits for its own termination receipt.
> - A completed agent-file cleanup can also retain a retry deadline from
a competing callback.
> - This pull request resolves confirmed destruction through the
existing handoff contract and settles obsolete cleanup retries.
> - The benefit is correct cleanup recovery without deleting history or
weakening sleep checks.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #18554. Related work: #14695 handles warm agent-file ownership;
#13291 handles interrupted conversation continuation. This PR fixes
cleanup recovery after confirmed final destruction. It does not change
provider process reuse or start a new run.

**What happened?**

After ten qualified staging web-server replacements, a bounded
database-idle check failed. Completed native runs still owned pending
agent-file cleanup. Normal workspace archive confirmed final sandbox
destruction. An earlier lease in the same recorded handoff chain
remained unresolved. Two completed cleanup receipts also kept stale
retry deadlines.

**Expected behavior**

Resolve an earlier owner's cleanup only when the complete recorded
handoff chain leads to an exact provider-confirmed destruction receipt.
Clear a retry when its cleanup is already complete. Keep real or
uncertain work pending.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Complete a remote run, reuse its sandbox for a second run, then
archive the completed workspace.
2. Recover agent-file collection for the first run after the final lease
confirms destruction.
3. Separately, reconstruct a completed cleanup receipt that still has a
retry deadline.
4. Observe that both records remain unfinished without this fix.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Observed on `1a6017d6460267ad89d7e1784e2b521c28d8e9ac`. The changed
source was unchanged in master
`97c4dc969e13364464765ffbde74955005bf44d3`, which is this branch's base.

**Deployment mode**

A managed ephemeral web server with PostgreSQL, object storage and a
remote sandbox. Regression tests use local PostgreSQL and no live
provider or model calls.

## What Changed

- Resolve remote termination at read time through the existing strict
reusable-lease handoff validator. Require one final owner and a valid
destruction receipt. Preserve historical lease rows.
- Use the same proof in agent-directory cleanup and remote-stop
inspection. Keep stopped, ambiguous, broken and cross-company chains
blocked.
- Reconcile completed cleanup receipts with stale retry deadlines
through the existing deadline worker. Compare the receipt before
clearing a deadline.
- Add recovery, refusal, restart quietness and concurrent-obligation
regressions.
- Document the cleanup contract and preserve deployment evidence, failed
checks and remaining acceptance work in the existing plan.

## Verification

- Both owning service suites passed 169 tests before the final receipt
comparison was added.
- The seven-case selection passed again after the release-race review
fix: `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/agent-directory-working-copies.test.ts -t 'stale
retry|destroyed successor chain|stale-deadline settlement'`.
- Repository-wide `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed on final
review fix `7935d99bed`. The full `pnpm test:run` is still running.
Latest-head CI has 55 successful checks, three skips, and one neutral
review result. Greptile is 5/5. The Paperclip reviewer’s race finding is
fixed; its optional query-deduplication suggestion is documented and the
fresh lock-boundary checks are retained.
- The reviewer identified an early return after a lost receipt
comparison. The strengthened race regression failed before the fix and
passed afterward: release now acts on the returned authoritative row,
completes the new cleanup obligation, and preserves canonical files.
- The first focused attempt failed the new stale-deadline test because
the public release guard skipped settlement. That guard was fixed. The
original failure is retained. A sandboxed typecheck could not fetch pnpm
signature metadata; the normal network-enabled command passed without
changing verification policy.
- Prior deployed evidence: ten Railway replacements, 12,521 reads, 1,566
verified saves, 34 matching file hashes, no HTTP failures, actual
browser reconnects of 1.16–1.29 seconds, and one remote execution
retained across replacement. Two harness false alarms were separately
adjudicated without redeploying those steps.
- That deployment evidence predates this PR. Current-image natural idle,
automatic sleep/wake browser return and the isolated production canary
remain unverified. Production has not changed.

## Risks

- Cleanup authority must not cross a company or allocation boundary. The
existing validator checks the entire recorded chain; stopped successors
and unexpected owners remain unresolved.
- Confirmed destruction permits no-save cleanup. It does not claim that
uncollected agent files were saved.
- Read-time resolution adds a scoped lease-history query only for
expired reusable leases without direct termination proof. No new
recurring worker or polling cadence is added.
- The deadline update must not erase new work. It requires the same
cleanup receipt and preserves concurrent changes.
- No schema or public API changes are included.

## Model Used

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

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.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with code editing, tool use and local test
execution. This session does not expose a more specific model ID or
context-window size.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 87ae20ae65 fix(server): reconcile failed sandbox cleanup with signed absence (#18407)
Reconcile failed ephemeral Cloud leases through a signed cleanup-only absence observation when local historical inspection is unavailable. Preserve failure outcomes, exact resource bindings, retention and row-version fences; grant no run-continuation authority.

All 54 current-head checks/statuses passed. Greptile is 5/5, Medium, with no findings or unresolved threads. The 38 focused tests pass; both new reconciliation cases fail without the fallback. Isolated baseline and branch idle suites each pass all 225 cases. The original broader local teardown timeout is retained in the PR, and the full local run remains in progress.

Cloud protocol support is already serving in staging. Exact candidate composition and hosted provider sleep/wake qualification follow this merge. Production has not been changed.

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 |
|---|---:|---:|---:|

- 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.

## 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.

DottaandPaperclip 30b753f614 perf(budgets): scope accounting and deliver enforcement asynchronously (#17046)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their paid work.
> - Budgets must prevent new work and stop reported overruns.
> - Cost settlement also ran serial lifecycle reconciliation for every
eligible company agent.
> - That made request latency grow with unrelated idle agents and
delayed results on stop delivery.
> - This change separates atomic admission and accounting from durable
asynchronous enforcement.
> - Scoped live usage detects overruns without writing provisional
ledger charges.
> - The result is constant query scope for ordinary settlement and
recoverable stop delivery.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Settlement and budget checks entered company-wide lifecycle
reconciliation. A company with 1,000 unrelated idle agents performed
1,001 accounting transactions for one ordinary cost evaluation. User
requests could also wait for provider termination. Running usage
checkpoints did not enforce reported monetary exposure.

**Expected behavior**

Keep the final reservation gate authoritative. Commit charges, scope
blocks, and enforcement intent before returning. Deliver stop requests
after commit. Read only applicable policies and execution scopes for
ordinary charges. Stop long-running work when supported reported or
priced usage establishes an overrun.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create a disposable company with one company budget and idle agents.
2. Evaluate a charge below the budget with 0, 17, and 1,000 unrelated
idle agents.
3. Compare query counts, company accounting transactions, and duration.
4. Use the controlled partial-usage and delayed-stop fixtures to check
enforcement and request responsiveness.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The measured baseline is `6c9b87d0922f1ebfc43e8b0c36889ac5ba7b9837` from
`master`.

Related public work: Refs #16976, #2006, #3539, #13763, #14296, #16853,
#13075. These cover the affected service charge, cancellation, and
accounting paths. This change removes their shared reconciliation
overhead.

## What Changed

- Batch applicable policy exposure under the existing company accounting
lock. Preserve exact fractional money and zero-reservation dispatch
fences.
- Commit a durable final budget dispatch claim before provider I/O.
Retain a separate final issue/run ownership transaction through
synchronous handoff, without holding the company accounting lock or
awaiting provider work. Preserve native recovery lease checks and
duplicate handoff fencing. Browser handoff rechecks current policy; it
reuses a consumed rate slot only for the identical policy generation.
- Separate ledger spend, live observed spend, and effective held
capacity. Use the maximum of reservation and live observation for each
unfinished operation.
- Deliver budget cancellation through the existing coordinator.
Revalidate generations and persist queued/running stop fences before
external termination. Bound stop concurrency to four.
- Apply agent holds only to the affected agent. Project budgets leave
other projects running. Project real company transitions in bounded
lifecycle batches.
- Replace periodic broad reconciliation with durable pending work,
startup repair, receipt replay, and concrete retry/window deadlines.
Retain drain and idle-safety checks.
- Enforce accepted cumulative usage checkpoints without provisional
charges. Final accounting atomically replaces live exposure and settles
reservations.
- Add operator-gated budget spans, regression coverage, map updates, and
a real-PostgreSQL comparison harness. No schema or first-party telemetry
change.

## Verification

- Full workspace `pnpm -r typecheck` passes on the final ownership fix,
rebased onto `bbcf5dfe98`. Production `pnpm build` passes on final head
`4c5f4de8b1`. Map, module-boundary, token, and Storybook catalog checks
pass.
- Focused real-PostgreSQL coverage includes the 292-case rebased
accounting/dispatch run, 63 browser cases, 52 run-control/cancellation
cases, 42 policy-generation cases, 77 lifecycle/commentary cases, and
the exact Muse confirmation regression. Native executor unit coverage
passes all 768 cases. Final ownership coverage passes: 74
adapter/use-case cases, nine public regression cases, and the additional
deleted-project race. These exercise competing ownership, budget changes
and charges between phases, zero/nonzero duplicate claims, rollback,
recovery contention, read-only capacity rechecks, and controlled HTTP
startup after commit. Another 74 pure/startup/tracing cases pass. The
complete CI matrix and both 5/5 reviews passed on `1ac9b58`; its
external security scan identified a stale-owner handoff race. The final
fix restores synchronous issue/run ownership fencing after the
accounting transaction commits. Final head `8e84f55ce8` has fresh
Greptile 5/5 with zero new comments, Paperclip review 5/5, and a passing
security scan. The complete latest-head [CI
matrix](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39535189808)
passes, including budget, browser, Runner, build, and canary jobs. The
unchanged Runner close fixture passed on its sole same-head job retry.
- Broad local `pnpm test:run` invocations were stopped before required
source updates (rebase and review fixes). They are not claimed as full
passes. Final full-suite coverage comes from the complete latest-head CI
matrix; local focused coverage and the incomplete broad invocations are
reported separately.
- Reproduce performance with `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsx
../scripts/benchmark-budget-enforcement.ts
--baseline-ref=6c9b87d0922f1ebfc43e8b0c36889ac5ba7b9837`; repeat with
`--reverse`. The harness uses disposable real PostgreSQL, 20 warm
samples per variant/count, and records raw timings, SQL/lock counts,
agent reads, unchanged agent state, and query plans. Final
production-source measurement revision:
`eff713a4f72c7f4b7a4002a701cb481d4bfccd95`; the extended harness is
committed in `4c5f4de8b1`.

| Unrelated idle agents | Baseline median / p95 | New median / p95 |
Baseline SQL / locks | New SQL / locks | New agent reads |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| 0 | 1.80 / 2.33 ms | 2.99 / 3.88 ms | 5 / 1 | 7 / 1 | 0 |
| 17 | 15.53 / 19.55 ms | 2.24 / 2.60 ms | 90 / 18 | 7 / 1 | 0 |
| 1,000 | 978.35 / 1,790.43 ms | 2.16 / 2.52 ms | 5,005 / 1,001 | 7 / 1
| 0 |

- These measurements use local PostgreSQL 18.1 and Node 26.4.0 arm64.
They isolate the cost-evaluation core and complete admission path,
without hosted-region or provider latency. Prior-revision reversed-order
controls also preserved the constant query counts; the final
measurements above use the final production source.
- Complete reserve → final ownership gate → immediate offline provider
result is measured separately, with one responsible agent and one active
operation at each unrelated-agent count. Admission p95 baseline/new: 0
agents **11.54 / 29.77 ms**; 17 agents **9.31 / 27.62 ms**; 1,000 agents
**24.51 / 74.05 ms**. Baseline admission was already scoped; the
stronger final fence adds bounded overhead. New counts stay constant at
53 Drizzle statements, three transactions, two company-accounting locks,
and five agent-reading statements bound to the responsible agent. Zero
unrelated-agent reads, exactly one provider callback per sample, and no
leftover runs or holds. All admission scenarios stay below 250 ms. No
external provider calls are included.
- The partial-usage/delayed-termination fixture passed 20/20: receipt
persistence p95 13 ms, receipt return to observed durable Stop fence p95
28 ms, complete receipt-start-to-fence p95 50 ms, unrelated database
request p95 1 ms while termination was blocked. After releasing the
controlled termination fixture, acknowledgement p95 was 14 ms. These are
separately measured phases; fixture acknowledgement is not live-provider
termination latency.
- Models and provider deadlines are unchanged. No deployment, live
inference, or staging acceptance is claimed. A quiet 30-minute follow-up
waits for the merged revision on staging, then repeats classifier and
controlled budget-stop acceptance in staging, recording hosted
bookkeeping, queue delay, and actual provider acknowledgement
separately.
- Development failures retained: finalizer notification regressions
(fixed; 27/27 affected cases passed), invalid browser admission fixture
assumptions (fixed; browser coverage now passes 63/63), and first-head
lifecycle/dispatch CI regressions (reproduced and repaired). A
prior-head Cases E2E test hit its unchanged announcement-dismiss handler
race while opening a filter; the same journey passed on `1ac9b58`. The
external security review then found a stale-owner race between
accounting commit and provider entry; final verification covers a
competing run in that gap while retaining provider I/O outside the
accounting lock. Early PostgreSQL startup attempts hit local semaphore
pressure; serial reruns succeeded. The final-head Runner lane had one
failure among 1,823 tests: the unchanged `timeout-attachment` fixture
failed at its first process close after 6.28 seconds. The sole same-head
job retry passed all 1,819 active tests (four skipped), including that
fixture in 1.85 seconds. Three isolated local probes could not run
correctly because the Rust fake-provider fixture binary was absent;
cleanup masked the original startup failure. CI builds that fixture
through its normal lane. These probes are inconclusive and are not
counted as passes.

## Risks

- This changes accounting, lifecycle, and cancellation ordering. Durable
generations, source/sequence checks, ownership leases, and company
locking remain required for correctness.
- Provider stop acknowledgement can be slow or fail. Stop intent remains
pending until existing termination proof succeeds; cancelled row status
alone does not acknowledge delivery.
- Mid-run limits depend on provider usage reports or supported price
calculations. Providers that report only at completion cannot provide
exact mid-call detection.
- Signals are process-local wake hints for the supported
single-active-writer model. Durable state and startup recovery remain
authoritative.
- There are no migrations, new queue tables, or cached balances. Repeat
the classifier and controlled budget-stop acceptance after normal
rollout.

DottaandPaperclip cb2d6e80d3 perf: stop polling idle Muse maintenance (#17000)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Muse connects an external worker to a Paperclip agent.
> - Its maintenance loop scans the database every five seconds, even
without bindings.
> - These empty scans prevent an otherwise idle database from sleeping.
> - The shared delivery coordinator can react to committed writes and
saved deadlines.
> - This change uses that coordinator and retains recovery for
unfinished assignments.
> - Idle Muse maintenance can now stop querying the database.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Muse qualification, OAuth authority, and terminal assignment
maintenance.

**Current behavior**

A claimed instance runs two empty scans every five seconds even when
Muse has no bindings. This produces about 34,560 unnecessary queries per
day. Warm standby suppression from #16974 does not cover claimed
instances.

**Proposed behavior**

Recover once at startup. Wake after relevant transactions settle.
Schedule qualification expiry at its saved deadline. Retain five-second
recovery only for failures and unfinished assignments.

**Reason and benefit**

Remove recurring database traffic from idle Muse maintenance while
preserving authority checks and recovery. Reuse the database work signal
foundation from #15625 without adding tables.

## What Changed

- Register Muse maintenance with the shared delivery coordinator and its
idle admission rules.
- Signal pairing, OAuth attachment and revocation, qualification
changes, and new assignments before transaction writes. The existing
transaction layer waits for outer commit.
- Restore qualification deadlines from persisted bindings. Retry failed
sweeps and unfinished assignments.
- Add PostgreSQL tests for idle quiet, nested commit, rollback,
deadlines, standby, drain, and failure recovery. Verify signals from
actual Muse producers. Preserve startup, newly committed work, and
failed sweep retries across idle drain without SQL polling.
- Document the remaining recovery cadence and sleep limitations.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed before rebase. Server typechecking also
passed after rebase and the drain fix.
- `pnpm build`: passed before rebase.
- Final change: 33 maintenance, delivery coordinator, and scheduler
tests passed. Maintenance used a fresh disposable PostgreSQL 17
database.
- Muse control-plane tests: 254 passed against the same disposable
database.
- `pnpm test:run`: attempted, then stopped after repeated embedded
PostgreSQL startup failures from this host's semaphore limit.
Native-session, Muse, and AI-connection suites could not create local
clusters. The complete suite runs in CI.
- `git diff --check`: passed.
- Final commit `e106cbf20d`: all CI gates passed, including complete
test suites, E2E, build, production bundle boot, public-install smoke
test, and canary dry run. Greptile and Paperclip source reviews both
rated 5/5, with no unresolved findings.

The focused suites accept `PAPERCLIP_MUSE_MAINTENANCE_TEST_DATABASE_URL`
and `PAPERCLIP_MUSE_CONTROL_TEST_DATABASE_URL`. Use a disposable test
database; fixtures remove test data.

## Risks

- Unfinished assignments retain five-second recovery. This change
removes idle polling, not all Muse polling.
- Signals are process-local. Independent database writers need explicit
integration. Startup recovers persisted state.
- Qualification deadlines depend on the running process. Existing
durable Muse sleep blockers remain unchanged.
- The receiver keeps its batching timer. An empty buffer already makes
no database calls.
- No schema migration or API change.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 63fbb714e6 fix(server): release idle tracking after aborted static UI files (#16685)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip runs work for AI agents.
> - Hosts must prove that accepted work has finished before idle sleep.
> - HTTP request tracking keeps unfinished writes active after a client
leaves.
> - Static file middleware has no returned completion promise.
> - An aborted UI download can leave its request active forever.
> - This PR completes only a matched file response and keeps other work
tracked.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15522. Found while qualifying #16679. A search found no duplicate
static-download idle fix.

**What happened?**

Closing a client during a static UI download leaves one tracked request
active. The response has closed, but the file middleware never calls the
wrapped response end method. The instance cannot report idle after that
request.

**Expected behavior**

A closed, matched static file response must not leave a permanent work
hold. Unfinished application writes must remain tracked. A missing file
must keep the normal fallback and error paths.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Serve a large local file through the static UI middleware with idle
admission enabled.
2. Start the download over HTTP.
3. Disconnect the client after its first data chunk.
4. Observe that the tracked request remains active with the original
middleware.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on the behavior in
`d30648dee89720358271c276b9fc28cf83f18be7`. This branch starts at
`cfa9dce295970a85b3d8ee14cab0eccf50bc72e2`.

## What Changed

- Mark the completion of a known read-only response without dropping
pending middleware promises.
- Wrap static UI file serving. A successful file match is required
before a closed response can complete its tracking. A late match
rechecks an already closed response. Missing files keep the normal
fallback.
- Use the wrapper for hashed assets, other static UI files, and public
development files. Preserve caller headers and cache options.
- Test both HTTP abort timings, nested routers, conservative
mounted-application holds, parent writes, mutating GET fallbacks, and
callback-only work.
- Update the idle contract and its verification map. Correct the
paused-message recipe from hosted qualification: an explicit Pause
cancels older queued work, so test new accepted input after the pause
and await the normal resume lifecycle.

## Verification

- The original two real stream-abort regressions fail with the original
Express static behavior.
- Three review regressions fail on
`e260f4694afab8447b0cb203f439cb3ccad254e8`: a client closing before file
lookup, an unfinished parent in a mounted application, and an unfinished
parent in a root without installed handler tracking. Fixed sources were
restored byte for byte after the comparison.
- Two focused suites: 16 passed. They cover nested routers, both abort
timings, hidden parent writes, late missing-file fallbacks, contents,
HEAD, conditional responses, and caller headers.
- Module and map checks pass. Map checks are structural only.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`: passed on
`f242ee739344484995d3addf81635512370778c8`.
- Full CI matrix: 54 successful checks and 2 intentional Storybook
skips.
- Apex: 5/5 on the exact current head, with zero unresolved threads.
- Full local maintained test groups are still running before final
handoff.
- The initial local broad run was stopped before changing source for the
P1 review findings. Two file-mode fixture failures in that run came from
the scratch runner's inherited `0077` mask; the same suite passes with
the normal child test mask `0022`, without source or host configuration
changes. The replacement run uses `0022` for test children and
command-scoped `init.defaultBranch=master` for existing Git fixture
assumptions.
- This PR has not been deployed to a hosted environment.

## Risks

Only a matched file served by the admitted application with installed
handler tracking can complete this way. Routers share that scope.
Mounted Express applications and roots without handler tracking keep the
existing conservative response hold; this change does not claim their
hidden writes are tracked. An unfinished tracked parent promise still
blocks sleep after a file client disconnects. Redirects, missing files,
application callbacks, and other GET requests retain their guards. No
authentication, company scope, provider cleanup, or scheduling gate is
removed. No schema or API response changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, source editing, and shell
tools. The session does not expose a more specific serving model ID or
its context window size.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 4415665d67 fix(server): allow proved idle waits and verify historical cleanup (#16633)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents, task continuations, integrations, and
their execution resources.
> - Automatic idle sleep needs durable evidence that accepted work and
provider cleanup are settled.
> - Response-driven questions, passive board escalations, and completed
connection receipts currently look like unfinished work.
> - Legacy ephemeral leases and terminal image sessions need actual
deletion proof before their history can become idle.
> - This PR adds narrow evidence-based exceptions and read-only provider
verification while preserving queues, outcomes, and ownership fences.
> - Idle instances can sleep without losing responses, automatic
reconciliation, or cleanup obligations.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Instances with no executable work can remain awake because pending human
responses, passive recovery records, outbound integration configuration,
or completed delivery history are counted as background work. Older
failed ephemeral leases and finished setup sessions also lack the
evidence needed to distinguish retained resources from deleted
allocations.

**Expected behavior**

Permit idle sleep only for proved response-driven waits and settled
history. Continue blocking real queued work, inbound integrations
without a wake contract, unfinished accounting/retries, retained
resources, and uncertain provider cleanup.

**Steps to reproduce**

Finish an issue's producing run, leave a pending question or
confirmation, and request an owned scheduled idle report. Separately
retain a processed connection receipt or a failed ephemeral lease whose
provider allocation has already been deleted. The old checks keep those
instances awake even after executable work has finished.

Related public groundwork: #15522, #15599, #15761, #15897, #15907, and
#16325. Searched existing public idle-sleep PRs; this addresses
additional blockers in the current predicates.

## What Changed

- Recognize supported response-driven waits and passive board recoveries
without changing task state, response audiences, or continuation
policies. Bind passive issue generation into routine-only alarms too.
Keep automatically polled merge-confirmation cards awake.
- Treat processed events, delivered intents, disabled drafts, and
outbound MCP configuration as history/configuration where proved safe.
Preserve pending deliveries, downstream wake requests, and inbound
GitHub bindings.
- Permit only pristine Slack setup drafts with a matching disabled
channel connection, no provisioning registration, and no prior provider
identity/activity. A saved slash-command name remains inert
configuration.
- Repair missed routine execution-issue status hooks in bounded
awake-only maintenance. Lock and re-read exact owners, apply existing
completion/transient-failure rules, and preserve normal continuation
after an issue resumes.
- Allow human-only connection setup to wait only when no reusable active
connection of its purpose exists; available access reblocks sleep for
reconciliation. The delivery worker shares this proof, releases its
local idle hold, and retains maintenance only while already awake.
Passive-only ticks pause before admission during an owned drain,
allowing slow backups to finish; new producer notifications still
reconcile and invalidate the backup.
- Add optional `environmentInspectLease` SDK discovery/dispatch and
read-only Daytona/fake-provider implementations. Old workers remain
conservative. Daytona status inspection uses a fresh provider GET
without reconnecting or poisoning unused-worker eligibility.
- Bind historical credential reads to an unrotated initial secret
version and its immutable resolved-value hash; reject ambiguous
histories and ambient Daytona credential/API-endpoint fallbacks before
querying provider state.
- Verify bounded rotating batches of historical resources on
already-awake Cloud instances, outside readiness. Store host-owned
deletion evidence bound to exact row identity/version and reject
concurrent ownership changes. Preserve failure outcomes, cleanup/export
intents, and run continuation authority.
- Preserve cancellation provenance, defer contended routine rows
individually, and cap actual inspection RPCs across caller timeouts and
worker exits. Add database, SDK, provider, configuration-scope, and race
regression coverage and update idle protocol documentation.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed on `24fd1c0f5ec`; server
typecheck/build passed again after the final coordinator-only fix in
`60f23e6e4b6`.
- Final server regressions: 258 sleep-safety/connection cases and all 17
coordinator cases passed. Earlier focused checks also covered 331
combined idle/cleanup cases, 34 custom-image cases, 39
credential/cleanup cases, 39 connection-history cases, and 80 existing
routine cases. Counts overlap and are not additive.
- SDK: 153 passed. Daytona: 406 passed with 14 existing opt-in skips.
The provider implementation also typechecks against the locked SDK used
by the Cloud wrapper.
- Dependency boundaries were exercised with real child workers holding
provider inspection replies beyond caller timeouts, a real PostgreSQL
row lock delaying one routine owner, and real connection creation →
queue notification → worker hold release → resumption after access is
enabled without another notification. A controlled six-second backup
goes through the real coordinator, task drain, work signals, and
idle-safety generation checks; maintenance permits completion, while a
new committed transaction invalidates it.
- Full local `pnpm test:run` completed its general-server phase with
21,122 passing, 29 failing, and 109 skipped tests; later phases did not
run. That long run spanned source edits and is not a final-revision
pass. The affected Slack draft assertion passes on current source.
Restoring `/usr/sbin` for `lsof` produced 233 passing tests and two
Git-fixture failures across the other five files (3 existing skips).
Both remaining assertions pass with command-scoped
`init.defaultBranch=master`; this host defaults to main and leaves both
branches in their fixture. No source/global Git setting changed for that
comparison. Original failure logs are retained.
- A parallel typecheck/build attempt raced generated Runner outputs and
failed an import. Running the build sequentially passed with no source
change.
- Local database checks use the maintained test-constructor seam with
native PostgreSQL 16.14 because bundled PostgreSQL 18 is unreliable on
this host. No database assertions were skipped in the focused runs. An
interrupted combined run was superseded by the separate passing
coordinator and safety/connection runs; no owned test database processes
remain running.
- Apex reviewed final head `60f23e6e4b615a08591e19d86443a6c35c091ce1`:
**5/5**, zero unresolved threads. All current-head CI gates are green,
with expected policy skips. The branch is conflict-free and GitHub
reports a clean merge state.
- Current-head CI initially failed `plan-task-fixture.spec.ts:66` during
fixture deletion: the final company DELETE hit
`activity_log_company_id_companies_id_fk` after the feature assertions
completed. The deletion path is unchanged here; the final diff only
changes drain-gated passive maintenance. The preceding revision passed
this shard. Failure evidence is retained in [the original CI
job](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39006936642/job/117321244396);
the targeted retry passed on the unchanged commit ([retry
job](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39006936642/job/117322535013)).
This shows recovery, not that the underlying company-deletion race is
resolved.
- These checks do not claim staging/production deployment or live
provider cleanup proof. Provider tests simulate responses. Full Cloud
staging verification requires a compatible Core/private-plugin
composition after the Core revision is on master.

## Risks

Sleep eligibility changes require the existing owned drain, final
generation validation, local-work checks, and plugin drain. Unsupported
states fail closed. Queued agent input and routine execution remain
blocked. Outbound MCP exemptions exclude inbound GitHub grants; other
unsupported inbound integrations remain awake.

The inspection RPC is optional and requires a matching live worker
method. Its actual outstanding calls are capped at two across workers
even after the caller times out. Historical lease inspection requires
its recorded plugin/config; setup inspection requires an unchanged
recorded config fingerprint. Not-found under replacement account
credentials is not historical deletion proof: ambiguous/rotated secret
histories defer verification, and initial-version reads must match their
recorded value hashes. Missing provenance (including legacy image
sessions without a recorded config fingerprint), live/stopped resources,
provider authorization failures, and concurrent changes defer
verification. Routine repair replays existing
completion/transient-failure behavior and timestamps at reconciliation
time; it does not execute or discard deferred comments. No migration or
destructive provider operation is added. The new marker does not grant
run-resume authority. Full Cloud staging validation requires a
compatible Core/private-plugin composition; no production deployment is
included.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 35b3345033 fix(server): support issue monitor deadlines in idle sleep reports (#16325)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages work for companies and AI agents.
> - Hosted workspaces can sleep when their required work has a safe wake
path.
> - The current idle check treats every open issue as background work.
> - Backlog, unassigned and human-waiting records can therefore keep an
idle process running.
> - Future automated monitors still need their saved check time and
execution claims.
> - This PR adds a signed host capability for passive issues and
verified monitor deadlines.
> - The host can save one alarm for the earliest required routine or
monitor time.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A quiet workspace with a backlog or unassigned todo issue reports
background work as present. A future issue monitor also prevents sleep
even when the host can save a durable wake alarm.

**Expected behavior**

Proven passive records can sleep. A validated future monitor can sleep
only after the host saves its alarm and validates the same owned report.
Active, unknown and unresolved work stays awake.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create a quiet workspace with an unassigned todo issue and no other
work.
2. Acquire a bounded, signed Cloud idle hold.
3. Request the routine-only safety report with `scheduledWake=1`. The
issue blocks sleep.
4. Request the new capability with `scheduledWake=2`. A passive issue
can now report no work.
5. Add a valid future monitor to an assigned in-progress issue. The
second capability returns its saved deadline for host acknowledgement.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Base: `c30fb7d2b75ea30f72d63656b2a7cfff7fe0929d`.

**Deployment mode**

Cloud-managed authenticated instance. Local scheduling remains in the
existing scheduler.

Related protocol:
[#16215](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/16215). Open
scheduler and monitor PRs were checked for overlap. This change leaves
monitor admission, dispatch and quota recovery with their existing
owners. The roadmap already includes scheduled work; this is a focused
idle-safety extension.

## What Changed

- Add signed scheduling capability `2`; capability `1` retains the
routine-only rules.
- Allow untouched onboarding prompts with idle assignees to sleep using
the same awaiting-user predicate as recovery; typing, answering the
opening card or a prior run removes the exemption.
- Inspect passive issue state and future monitors in the same bounded,
read-only snapshot as other work.
- Check ownership, company scope, known states, claims, policy/deadline
agreement, attempts, timeout and dependency repair.
- Combine routine and monitor deadlines into a known proof kind and
catalog generation.
- Preserve other sleep blockers, including task watchdogs,
conversations, live runs, external credentials and recovery.
- Update the protected route, OpenAPI contract, documentation and
PostgreSQL regression tests.

## Verification

- Full workspace typecheck and build passed. Final server typecheck and
full build passed after the final guards.
- Initial safety, scheduling, protected-route and control-authentication
checks: 326 tests passed.
- Final safety and heartbeat scheduling checks: 253 tests passed.
Includes reporting a future deadline, restoring scheduling from
PostgreSQL and one dispatch across competing schedulers.
- Local general server checks: 20,260 passed; UI: 8,460 passed; CLI: 534
passed, including isolated reruns of two embedded-PostgreSQL startup
failures. All remaining workspace groups and 158 serialized suites
passed. The suite was completed in groups after the isolated
infrastructure retries; the final onboarding change also passed the
focused 674-test recovery/safety run. Earlier unchanged Git fixtures
failed under Xcode's system `init.defaultBranch=main`, reproduced on the
clean base and passed with a test-scoped fixture default; no source or
machine configuration was changed.
- Rebased issue, protected-route and scheduler checks: 115 tests passed;
server typecheck passed.
- The expanded change passed 674 idle-safety, scheduling and recovery
regression tests, including six onboarding admission/invalidation cases.
Final server typecheck and build passed.
- Current-head Apex is 5/5 with no unresolved threads. All 54
current-head checks passed, with two expected skips. Four jobs were
interrupted by runner shutdowns or lost communication on their first
attempts; their targeted reruns passed. Live hosting qualification
awaits the verified master release and matching host capability.

## Risks

This intentionally covers a limited set of passive states and valid
future monitors. Assigned active tasks without a proved waiting path,
unknown states, claimed monitors and quota recovery still block sleep.
It does not make every open issue safe to sleep.

A matching host must recognize `routines_and_issue_monitors`,
acknowledge the durable alarm and revalidate the exact owner, generation
and deadline before stopping. The report alone grants no stop authority.
Older hosts retain capability `1`. Independent database writers remain
outside the admission contract. Existing scheduler claims and execution
authority are unchanged. No schema migration is required.

Roll back host negotiation to capability `1` to restore conservative
admission, while retaining alarm delivery until outstanding alarms have
been handled.

DottaandPaperclip 7c016c049b perf(workspaces): wake terminal cleanup from committed changes (#16282)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents use execution workspaces to retain their files and Git
branches.
> - A reaper closes eligible workspaces after their task tree is
terminal.
> - The reaper scanned every heartbeat tick and read Git before cheap
eligibility checks.
> - Permanent scans also query idle databases when no cleanup work
exists.
> - This pull request wakes cleanup after transaction settlement and
restores bounded work at startup.
> - The benefit is fewer scans while fresh cleanup guards continue to
protect retained work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related work: Refs #13619, Refs #11753. Those PRs bound scans or back
off unchanged candidates. This PR uses the transaction work coordinator
to remove the permanent reaper tick. It overlaps their early
terminal-state filtering but does not change their runtime restart
behavior or introduce a second Git scheduler cache.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Terminal workspace cleanup and Git inspection for workspace detail
reads.

**Subsystem affected**

Server orchestration, execution workspaces, and idle sleep admission.

**Current behavior**

The heartbeat tick scans workspace candidates every thirty seconds. It
runs Git before rejecting nonterminal trees, cooldowns, and active runs.
Display inspections expire after five seconds.

**Proposed behavior**

Recover workspace rows in bounded startup pages. Wake after relevant
issue, workspace, and pull-request work-product transactions settle.
Schedule the terminal tree cooldown or a five-minute eligibility retry.
Back off unchanged candidates across unrelated wakes, and invalidate
their backoff after relevant committed changes. Park empty and
nonterminal-only lanes. Reuse display inspections for thirty seconds.
Read fresh Git before destructive cleanup.

**Reason and benefit**

Avoid recurring database and Git work when no cleanup is possible.
Retain transaction admission holds, restart recovery, and fresh deletion
checks. Retention eligibility can wait for the next host wake; active
and failed recovery work still blocks sleep.

**Breaking changes**

No schema or API shape changes. Display Git state can lag by thirty
seconds. Cleanup eligibility retries can take five minutes.

## What Changed

- Add a terminal-workspace worker to the existing transaction work
coordinator and scheduler.
- Signal relevant writes before mutation on the owning transaction.
Outer transaction settlement wakes cleanup.
- Derive cooldown deadlines from the full company-scoped terminal task
tree. Continue bounded recovery pages without a permanent sweep.
- Bound unchanged candidate inspections to five minutes, retain at most
256 entries, and invalidate affected entries with scoped transaction
hints. Repeated wakes preserve the earliest inspection deadline.
- Collect deadlines from task trees already read by bounded pages.
Restore the cursor after a failed page and rescan commits received
during a rotation.
- Check terminal state, cooldown, and active runs before Git. Preserve
lifecycle locks, generation fences, and fresh final checks.
- Keep failed or incomplete recovery visible to idle admission. Preserve
the passive retention exception.
- Extend the bounded display cache to thirty seconds and document the
scheduling and wake limits.

## Verification

- Focused workspace, coordinator, cache, and local sleep suites: 111
tests passed with real local PostgreSQL and Git worktrees where
applicable.
- Final worker, display cache, and local sleep suites: 28 tests passed.
- The regressions prove three ineligible workspaces invoke zero Git
scans, cached clean display state cannot remove new untracked files, and
real producer notifications wait for outer transaction settlement.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed locally. Map and
module-boundary checks passed.
- Work-product and sleep-safety suites: 221 tests passed. Reopen and
issue-tree control suites: 46 tests passed. Final backoff, workspace,
worker, and work-product suites: 87 tests passed.
- Final workspace and worker suites: 81 tests passed. Deadline selection
performs zero database reads. A failed full page retries its unread
terminal workspace before recovery can park.
- Full CI coverage passed on head `2c397970f7`: general tests,
serialized server suites, runner verification, E2E shards, typecheck,
build, and the final verification gate. The duplicate serial local `pnpm
test:run` was stopped after full CI coverage passed; it is not reported
as a completed local pass.
- Greptile: 5/5 with both findings resolved. The security scan also
passed. No failing or pending PR checks remain.

## Risks

- Display state can be stale for thirty seconds. Destructive guards
bypass the display cache.
- Undelivered or otherwise ineligible terminal work retries after five
minutes instead of each heartbeat tick.
- Transaction signals cover the owning `createDb` scope. Direct SQL and
independent server processes require startup recovery.
- Local cooldown timers are maintenance hints. They do not establish an
external wake alarm or whole-instance sleep safety. Existing blockers
remain in force; failed bounded recovery keeps the host awake.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6, model ID `gpt-6`, through Codex. Reasoning, repository
inspection, shell execution, and browser tools assisted the change. The
runtime does not expose the context-window size.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip d49cbf4c4f Permit idle sleep with consumed retries and passive worktrees (#15907)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Idle sleep must wait for accepted work and durable cleanup.
> - The retry dispatcher keeps its due date after it promotes a retry.
> - Finished retries and passive local directories can therefore look
like pending work.
> - This pull request requires completion proof and permits known
passive directory records.
> - It retains the records and keeps real work and unknown state awake.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #15897 and #15851. The open runtime-service work in #13413
retains its separate service and ingress guarantees. This patch does not
change those checks.

**What happened?**

Idle sleep treats a consumed retry date as pending work. It also blocks
on every retained execution workspace, including a local directory
without runtime activity.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Promote a scheduled retry, then finish its run without accounting
debt. Retain its scheduled retry date.
2. Retain a local primary directory or Git worktree without runtime
configuration, commands, or cleanup due.
3. Request an owned idle safety report. The report returns `present` for
this history.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on master at 4b59e2a2ec.

**Deployment mode**

Server with PostgreSQL. The regression tests use embedded PostgreSQL.

## What Changed

- Permit terminal runs with a finish time at or after their retry date
and no accounting debt. Apply that proof to linked wake,
answer-delivery, and verified failed-lease history.
- Permit known passive local primary directories and Git worktrees. Keep
due cleanup, commands, runtime configuration, shared project runtime
inheritance, pending reopen, runtime owners, and unfamiliar state awake.
- Retain retry dates, workspace records, files, and metadata. Document
the proof and retention limits.

## Verification

- Passed all 200 tests in `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/idle-sleep-safety.test.ts` against embedded
PostgreSQL.
- Passed the 52 retry dispatcher tests.
- Passed `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`. After the provider
correction, server typecheck and build passed again.
- Full CI is green for commit
`0510669439e855b90a4e03a2fc7827503cea507f`, including all test shards,
typecheck, build, and browser end-to-end tests. One browser test
initially raced its comment write; the failed jobs passed on retry
without a source change.
- Local `pnpm test:run` recorded 18,721 passed, 105 skipped, and four
failures in existing AI-login, Git-fixture, and native runner-recovery
tests; it exited before the remaining workspace and serialized groups.
The AI-login test passed alone. Both Git fixtures passed with
command-scoped `init.defaultBranch=master`. The native recovery failure
also occurs on the parent revision on this Mac. These suites pass in CI.
- Greptile Apex scored the final commit 5/5. Its provider-coverage
comment was addressed and the review thread resolved.
- Reviewed the diff for secrets, private data, generated files, and
unrelated changes.

## Risks

- Missing finish times, later retry dates, active children, and
accounting debt continue to block sleep. Failed lease history still
requires an exact provider termination receipt.
- Future cleanup eligibility can wait for the next wake. Due cleanup
blocks sleep. Storage must remain attached across sleep and keep its
backup policy.
- Shared directories with a project workspace and unfamiliar providers,
strategies, modes, or configuration remain conservative blockers.
- No migration, provider teardown, retry scheduling change, or tenant
data deletion.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6, with repository tools and code execution. The
runtime does not expose a more specific model snapshot or context-window
size.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 4b59e2a2ec fix(server): allow idle sleep with saved AI auth and verified lease history (#15897)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Automatic idle sleep must preserve accepted work, cleanup and
recovery.
> - Saved AI login connections are configuration without independent
workers.
> - Failed ephemeral leases can remain after their resources have
stopped.
> - Detached subscription observations and quota refreshes can outlive a
response.
> - This pull request distinguishes inert configuration and verified
history from unfinished work.
> - The benefit is safe idle eligibility while keeping credentials and
audit history.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

An active saved AI login blocks idle sleep after its login and agent
runs finish. A failed ephemeral lease also blocks after successful
cleanup and provider termination. The connection guard currently hides
detached quota and subscription work that can outlive the request that
started it.

**Expected behavior**

An idle instance can sleep with saved AI credentials and verified
failed-lease history. Accepted refresh work, recovery journals,
unfinished login sessions, pending cleanup and run accounting must still
block.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Save an AI connection with purpose `ai`, transport `runtime_auth` and
status `active`.
2. Finish login and all agent work, then acquire an owned idle drain.
3. Read the idle safety report. The saved connection alone reports
background work.
4. Repeat with a failed ephemeral lease whose exact provider termination
and finished run are recorded. Its history also reports background work.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Based on `0bbd586a2f6`, after updates from master.

**Deployment mode**

Single-process managed or self-hosted server using the owned idle-drain
protocol.

Related work: #15522, #15761 and #15851. Searched open and closed pull
requests for related idle-sleep changes. The open accounting recovery
work in #15879 is separate; this change does not settle or discard
accounting debt.

## What Changed

- Exempt active saved AI runtime-auth configuration from the connection
sleep check. Other connection types and unknown states keep their
existing checks.
- Track detached subscription discovery and provider observations until
their actual promises settle.
- Track underlying quota work through an HTTP timeout, including an
OAuth exchange and the save of its replacement credential.
- Inspect the credential-recovery directory without reading credential
bytes. Journals, probes, temporary files, unexpected entries and read
failures keep sleep blocked. Empty company directories left by
successful recovery permit sleep.
- Exempt a failed ephemeral lease only after successful cleanup, a
release timestamp, an exact company/run/lease/resource termination
receipt, and a finished run without retry or accounting debt. Export and
cleanup intents still block.
- Use the same failed-lease proof when checking finished login-session
cleanup.
- Add PostgreSQL and filesystem regression tests and document the
behavior.

## Verification

- Four focused suites passed: 186 tests covering durable guard
decisions, local recovery, detached subscription work and quota
timeouts.
- `pnpm build` passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server build` and a final server
TypeScript check passed after the directory-scanner cleanup.
- The final directory-scan recheck passed all 18 tests.
- The original-base `pnpm test:run` attempt found three local failures.
It was stopped before completion to update the branch after two master
changes. All three also reproduce on unchanged master `e733bddc45e`: two
Git default-branch fixtures in `workspace-runtime.test.ts` and one
native runner recovery fixture in `native-session-resume.test.ts`.
- Both Git fixtures pass with a command-scoped
`init.defaultBranch=master` setting. The native fixture fails with the
same result on both branches. No global Git setting was changed.
- All CI gates passed on the final head
`ff63497d9bef40f5f00567bc729fb17536cfe136`: [complete CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38156312722).
The only skipped checks are the two path-gated Storybook jobs.
- Greptile Apex scored the final head 5/5 with no actionable findings
and no unresolved review threads. The branch has no merge conflicts with
master.
- After the master update, `pnpm build` and `pnpm -r typecheck` passed
again. All four focused suites passed again: 186 tests.
- Staging deployment and live sleep/wake verification are pending the
Core merge and the verified private Cloud build. No production rollout
has been started.

## Risks

- The failed-lease exception is deliberately narrow. Older records
without exact termination evidence or a complete run receipt continue to
block.
- Pending OAuth recovery blocks sleep until it is recovered. No
credential, history, cleanup obligation or accounting receipt is
deleted.
- The existing owned drain, ingress fence, local-work generation checks,
plugin drain and backup checkpoint remain required.
- No schema migration or provider mutation is introduced. Roll back to
the previous application release to restore the conservative guard
behavior.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 (Codex), with repository inspection, code editing, test
execution and read-only provider analysis. No additional model version
or context-window size was supplied by the runtime.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip baa94bbea5 Fix idle sleep checks for finished login and wake history (#15761)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agent work and keeps a durable record of each
run.
> - Automatic idle sleep must wait for accepted work and provider
cleanup.
> - The current sleep check treats every saved login session as active
work.
> - It also treats every coalesced wake request as pending work.
> - These records can remain after their work and cleanup finish.
> - This pull request checks the cleanup and linked-run evidence before
it treats these records as history.
> - The change lets otherwise idle instances sleep and keeps uncertain
work awake.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A finished login session blocks idle sleep after its provider resource
has been removed. A consumed coalesced wake also blocks sleep after its
linked run finishes.

**Expected behavior**

Finished history should permit sleep when cleanup or run completion is
confirmed. Active work, missing evidence, retry debt, and pending
accounting must still block sleep.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create a finished login session with a retained provider reference.
2. Record a successful release for the same resource, company, and
environment.
3. Check idle sleep safety under an owned, quiet admission hold.
4. The current check reports background work. The new check treats the
session as history.
5. Repeat with a finished coalesced wake linked to a finished run in the
same company and agent.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on master at 98e3cec78e.

Related work: #15522, #15599, #15629. A search of open and merged
idle-sleep PRs found no duplicate.

## What Changed

- Permit finished login history only after its promotion claim is
cleared. A retained resource reference needs successful cleanup, a
release timestamp, and the same company and environment. Conflicting
cleanup evidence still blocks sleep.
- Permit a finished coalesced wake only after its exact linked run
finishes without a retry or pending cost accounting.
- Keep the lease UUID column unchanged. Convert only valid UUID-shaped
session references so both existing lease indexes remain usable.
- Add real PostgreSQL tests for safe history and missing, active, or
conflicting evidence. Cover text references, UUID references, and
conflicting internal/external matches.
- Document these checks. Image-setup history still blocks sleep because
its terminal state does not confirm cleanup.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/idle-sleep-safety.test.ts`:
84 tests passed, including the PostgreSQL cases.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed. `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server
typecheck` also passed after the index fix.
- Full default test coverage was exercised through the supported shard
runner. The initial run was not green. Fixture-permission, local
PostgreSQL startup, socket, route timeout, and Git stress failures
passed controlled rechecks with normal permissions, one database worker,
or isolated runs.
- All route suites, UI/CLI suites, and all shared, database, adapter,
and SDK projects were exercised. One damaged-session recovery test in
`native-session-resume.test.ts` still fails and also reproduces on
unmodified base `98e3cec78e8`. Full-suite green status is not claimed.
- `pnpm build`: passed in an isolated checkout of the initial commit.
The build and full Paperclip CI also passed on final head `d61b489c26b`:
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38005908398. Both
required branch-protection checks passed. The optional Superagent
security scan is still running and has not returned findings.
- A local PostgreSQL query-plan probe used 10,000 lease rows and 200
finished login rows with mixed internal and external references. The
actual sleep query used both the primary-key and provider-reference
indexes. Execution took 1.63 ms in this synthetic fixture.
- A read-only comparison on a controlled staging instance found login
history as the current check's sole durable-work blocker. The new query
found no durable-work blockers. This comparison did not authorize or
perform provider shutdown.
- The current owned sleep controller refused sleep and released its
hold. The instance remained healthy. Existing backup archives were
unchanged.

## Risks

- Missing schema, missing cleanup evidence, stale claims, and unfinished
linked runs fail closed.
- The change preserves history and provider references. It does not
delete records or release resources.
- Image setup, other durable work, plugin draining, in-flight work, and
backup checks retain their current behavior.
- No schema migration or new API is required.

## Model Used

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

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 9b624a110e fix: checkpoint database backups before idle sleep (#15629)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip coordinates agent work and preserves company state.
> - Hosted instances can stop compute when admission and all work
sources are quiet.
> - The periodic database backup timer currently blocks every automatic
sleep.
> - Disabling backups would remove recovery points.
> - This change offers an explicit final-backup checkpoint before sleep.
> - A verified archive and restart marker preserve recovery while
compute is stopped.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

An otherwise idle instance with automatic backups enabled always reports
background work. Operators cannot reclaim idle compute without disabling
those backups. The work inventory also queries the database before
checking known local blockers.

**Expected behavior**

An operator can enable checkpoint mode. The server may authorize sleep
only after all other work is quiet and a fresh backup is verified under
the same owned hold. Backups resume on restart with the existing
retention policy.

**Steps to reproduce**

Acquire a bounded idle drain on an instance with no application work and
automatic backups enabled. Read its owned idle safety report. It reports
present even when all other work is clear. With this change and
`PAPERCLIP_DB_BACKUP_IDLE_CHECKPOINT_ENABLED=1`, a successful final
backup can permit sleep; backup failures still refuse it.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced from master at 4265cb3a2b.

**Deployment mode**

Hosted single-process instances with persistent backup storage and
serialized sleep/wake operations.

Searched open backup and sleep PRs and issues. Related: #15522 and
#15599 establish owned idle holds and plugin drains. #15358 proposes
general backup health/retention validation; this change verifies only
opted-in sleep checkpoints and their restart catch-up.

## What Changed

- Add an off-by-default checkpoint flag. Keep automatic backups enabled.
- Reject known local blockers before database work.
- Finish a new backup during each owned safety check, including final
revalidation.
- Verify the complete gzip archive and sync its file and directory
before pruning older recovery points.
- Use unique checkpoint filenames so repeated checks cannot replace an
earlier verified archive.
- Keep backup work counted through dump, validation and persistence.
Changed owners, expired holds, concurrent work and errors refuse sleep.
- Persist a restart marker before the dump. Attempt a fresh backup on
restart before idle eligibility, then resume the normal timer. Only a
verified fresh backup clears the marker.
- Restrict managed checkpoint reads to verified Cloud control actors.
Tenant instance-admin elevation does not grant backup authority.
- Keep archive verification outside engine fallback so failures retain
their original cause.
- Document that recurring duplicate archives pause while asleep. The
final checkpoint and historical archives remain on persistent storage;
retention does not prune while asleep.

## Verification

- Focused idle, spool, backup and route checks: 137 tests passed,
including restoration into a separate PostgreSQL database.
- Backup library and checkpoint tests: 15 passed, including rejection
before historical backups can be pruned.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed. Follow-up server
typecheck and database build cover the verification callback.
- Review follow-up: 51 backup/restore/startup tests, 122 route/safety
tests, 32 signed-control tests, and server typecheck passed. Startup
cases exercise both flag states and retry after failure. The final
test-cleanup adjustment passes all 35 startup tests.
- The full local run hit four ancestor-directory skill-fixture failures
and one tool-route failure. All five passed from an isolated checkout at
949210 (3 targeted chat/tool checks and the complete 39-test email
suite). The redundant local run was stopped after final-head hosted CI
passed. No full local pass is claimed.
- Added-line secret/private-reference review and `git diff --check`
passed.
- [Final-head hosted
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37853380365)
passed, including typecheck, build, all general and serialized test
shards, all eight E2E shards and the canary dry run. Apex is 5/5 on
5b1de388ef, with no new findings and all review threads resolved. The
branch is conflict-free. Live staging activation awaits merge and a
canonical image; no production configuration or deployment changed.

## Risks

- The flag defaults off. This is for a single process whose host
controls every writer and preserves its backup volume across sleep.
Independent database writers require a different backup owner.
- Safety reads perform a backup only after a valid owned drain and all
other checks pass. Slow backups can outlive the caller timeout; they
remain counted until their work settles and cannot authorize sleep after
hold expiry.
- Initial and final reads each take a fresh backup. Hosts must allow
sufficient request time while retaining shutdown headroom.
- Retention settings are unchanged. Sleeping instances stop producing
duplicate hourly archives and retain their last checkpoint. Filesystem
data, encryption keys and off-provider disaster recovery remain separate
responsibilities.
- No schema migration. Disable the checkpoint flag to restore the
blanket backup blocker; automatic backups and an existing restart marker
remain active.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6. Used reasoning, repository inspection, code editing
and command execution. The runtime did not expose an exact model
revision or context-window size.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 3367b75ccc fix: fence accepted work and cleanup before idle sleep (#15522)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A host can stop an idle instance to reduce unused compute.
> - Zero active runs do not prove that requests, saved work, or cleanup
are complete.
> - A client can disconnect while its request still writes, and failed
cleanup can remain only in memory or on disk.
> - This pull request holds new admission and checks accepted work,
cleanup, and persisted work under an owned drain.
> - The host gets an empty report only while those checks remain valid.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13413. That companion PR uses the same owned-hold vocabulary for
runtime services. This PR covers HTTP requests, scheduler work,
accounting, cleanup, and the instance work inventory. It does not
include the preview gateway changes.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The instance task-drain API reports process counters. It does not prove
that a host can safely stop the instance for idle sleep.

**Current behavior**

A quiet run set can coexist with an unfinished request, cleanup after a
completed run, future work, or a failed accounting write.

**Proposed behavior**

Provide a bounded owned idle hold. Block new ingress, track accepted
handler promises, inspect durable and local work, and return `none` only
when the same hold stays quiet through the checks. Keep normal
deployment drains compatible.

**Reason and benefit**

Hosts can identify eligible idle instances without treating a disconnect
or failed cleanup write as completed work.

## What Changed

- Add `purpose: "idle"`, a bounded TTL, unique owners, and owner-checked
release to task drain. Existing holds cannot be replaced by another API
request.
- Gate HTTP ingress before parsers, auth, webhooks, and MCP. Gate new
WebSocket upgrades. Track async handlers in nested Express routers and
error middleware until they settle, even after the response or client
disconnect.
- Count accepted live-event WebSocket authentication through settlement,
even after disconnects. Count detached built-in agent, managed-home and
runtime-service startup reconciliation after readiness.
- Keep health and control mutations tracked. Count control-request
authentication separately from the read-only report, including
concurrent user/company/membership writes.
- Pause new scheduler admissions during idle holds. Count work already
in flight, including database backups, and reject scans whose work
generation changes. Periodic backups block sleep without a host wake
schedule.
- Inspect accounting and orphan-cleanup spool directories without
skipping temporary or malformed entries. Retain orphan tokens through
queue splices, flush failures, and buffer overflow. Keep failed usage
capture counted until its database failure fence is written.
- Check persisted work across companies in a bounded read-only
transaction. Include deferred agent-file cleanup and saved watchdogs
whose watched issues are complete. Enabled plugins and unsupported
retained work remain blockers.
- Require the exact idle owner and completed startup tracking before
returning an empty report. Keep reports free of tenant details.
- Document the hosting protocol, retry behavior, conservative blockers,
and the remaining external provider-stop race.

## Verification

- Current head: `8d9a599b732c2047b8c671d4799065d7c90a3567`, rebased on
master `941a3fa991aeb97eb1ac390c65b7973b5f6de1ad`. Both heartbeat helper
extractions are preserved. GitHub confirms no merge conflicts.
- Focused heartbeat renderer/run-log, drain, control-auth, admission,
route and PostgreSQL inventory checks: 234 tests passed in 10 suites
after the rebase.
- The POST task-drain contract includes the expected `409` conflict
response. The 84 OpenAPI and instance-settings route tests and server
typecheck passed after that final documentation fix.
- Final accepted-upgrade/startup regression run: 104 tests passed in
five suites, including success and failure after readiness or
disconnect. Final server typecheck also passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed.
- `pnpm build`: passed.
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile` and the PR diff secret scan passed.
No dependency or lockfile changes are added by this PR.
- The prior verification covered HTTP disconnects and early responses,
async error handlers, concurrent authentication writes, signed
bootstrap, saved watchdogs, backup promises, orphan cleanup, spools and
failed accounting fences. Those tests passed.
- The last full local `pnpm test:run` stopped in the general-server
phase with 16,658 passing tests and five skill/connector fixture
failures caused by an ancestor workspace skill directory. That full
local run preceded this rebase and has not been repeated for the import
conflict. Full current-head CI passed: 53 successful checks and two
conditional skips, with no failures.
- All eight review findings are fixed and their threads resolved,
including accepted upgrade authentication, detached startup writes and
the POST conflict contract. Current-head Apex review is 5/5 with no new
findings; all eight review threads remain resolved.
- No live provider stop or production change was performed.

## Risks

- The hosting controller must use the owned protocol and hold external
admission through its final validation and provider stop. A legacy drain
cannot authorize idle sleep. During an idle hold, new requests receive
503 with `Retry-After: 1`; the host must handle queueing or retry before
enabling this path.
- This is a single-process protocol. An unexpected restart after the
last validation can race an external provider stop. The host must
serialize deploy/wake/sleep operations and bind the validation to the
instance it stops. Multiple replicas need shared fencing.
- Some retained state conservatively prevents sleep, including every
enabled plugin. This PR does not promise that every inactive instance
becomes eligible.
- The HTTP adapter uses Express 5 router layers. Real Express tests
cover nested routes, errors and disconnects. New routes must register
before tracking is installed. Detached work must have durable state or
explicit work tracking.
- Unrecoverable in-memory cleanup debt keeps the instance awake until
reconciliation. This change does not make such debt survive an unplanned
process crash. No schema migration or provider configuration change is
included.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 via Codex, with reasoning, repository inspection, tool use
and code execution. The exact deployment variant/model ID and context
window are not exposed in this session.
