DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 b54317d3fb fix(native): give a preparing run's first turn the user's queued messages instead of interrupting it (#20168)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A Paperclip Runner (native) run prepares its workspace and
environment before it starts its first provider turn. This can take
about a minute.
> - A user's message that arrives during that time waits as a deferred
wake behind the run. The Interrupt control then cancelled the run before
any provider turn.
> - The cancel threw away the whole preparation. A new run had to
prepare again, so the user waited longer for the first token.
> - This pull request gives the run's first turn the queued messages.
The run seals its first-turn input immediately before `turn.start`, so
the messages are part of the prompt that the turn starts with.
> - The benefit is that the user sees the message handled in the same
run, with no cancel and no second preparation.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
A Paperclip Runner run took about 54 s to prepare (environment startup,
workspace, runtime selection). The user sent a second message 32 s into
that time and clicked Interrupt 21 s later. Interrupt cancelled the run
as `operator_interrupted` ("Interrupted to send queued messages") before
any provider turn. A new run then prepared again from the start. The
runtime-selection transaction that froze the run's input completed about
5 s before the click, and the coordinator claim came 4 s after it, so
the message could not be given to the first turn at any point in the old
code.

**Expected behavior**
When a user message arrives for a task whose current run has not started
its first provider turn, the run does not stop. The message goes into
that run's first turn. A run that is in a turn is interrupted as before.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Assign a task to a Paperclip Runner agent with a sandbox environment,
so preparation takes a long time.
2. While the run prepares, post a second comment on the task.
3. Click Interrupt on the queued message before the run starts its
provider turn.
4. See that the run is cancelled and a new run prepares again.

**Paperclip version or commit**
Staging revision b43cccbb0.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/native-runtime/first-turn-queued-input.ts` (new):
`claimFirstTurnQueuedInput` seals a run's first-turn input in one
transaction. It locks the task, the deferred wakes, and the run in the
same order as the queue routes. It takes the responsible user's plain
queued comments in queue order (not interaction answers, interrupt
intents, independent continuations, conversations, or other users'
messages). It renders them with source-trust sanitizing and secret
redaction, then writes a `firstTurnQueuedInput` receipt
(`paperclip.first-turn-queued-input.v1`) into the run context. A second
call for the same run returns the same messages.
`runAcceptsFirstTurnQueuedInput` is true for a running native (or
preparing native) run that has no receipt and no accepted provider turn.
- `packages/paperclip-runner/src/native-session-runtime.ts`: new
`getFirstTurnQueuedInput` option. The runner calls it immediately before
the first `session.startTurn` and appends the result to `task.prompt`
(or to `events` for a resumed-session continuation envelope). It is not
called for the disposition-only recovery turn.
- `native-session-executor.ts`: passes the claim to the runner. A failed
seal commits nothing, so the executor logs it and starts the turn
without the messages. The messages stay queued.
- `queued-comment-delivery.ts`: a message in a run's receipt counts as
delivered only after the provider accepted that run's turn
(`turn.accepted` or the provider's `turn.started`), and only if the
message was not edited after the seal. Release promotion, Send, and
later first turns use this rule. `explicit-native-continuation.ts` uses
the same rule for stopped native runs.
- `routes/issues.ts` Interrupt: when the target run has not sealed its
first turn and has no accepted turn, the route does not record interrupt
intent and does not cancel the run. The response has
`executionWait.reason = "first_turn_pending"`. Other runs are
interrupted as before.
- Queue views (`routes/issues.ts` and the wake-queue adapter) hide
messages that the active run took into its first turn. Queue edits keep
those ids on the wake, so a run that fails before acceptance still
leaves them queued.
- `run-state.ts`: the issue-control run projection includes the receipt,
so the queue poll can hide taken messages.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: new section "Queued messages before a
native run's first turn".

## Verification

- Red before the fix, green after:
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/issue-queued-comments-routes.test.ts -t "first
turn|already started"`: Interrupt on a preparing run and on a claimed
native run before `turn.start` does not stop the run, and the first turn
gets both messages in order. Before the fix, both cases cancelled the
run.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner exec vitest run
src/native-session-runtime.test.ts -t "first-turn queued input"`: the
claim runs immediately before `turn.start`, and the first turn's prompt
ends with the queued messages. Before the fix, the claim was never
called.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/first-turn-queued-input.test.ts`: a run that
fails before `turn.start` leaves the message queued. The next run
delivers it, and after that no later run or copied retry context takes
it again. Before the delivery rule, the "exactly once" and "accepted
then failed" cases failed.
- Safety cases that pass before and after: Interrupt still cancels a run
whose provider accepted a turn (including a run saved by the previous
release with no receipt) and a run whose first-turn input is already
sealed. The existing "explicit interrupt fallback" cases for preparing
and native runs without a responsible user still pass.
- Speed: the seal is one short transaction before `turn.start`. In the
embedded-Postgres test it took 5.5 ms. It removes a full second
preparation (54 s on staging) from the message-to-first-token time.
- Related suites: `src/modules/wake-queue`,
`explicit-native-continuation`, `issue-queued-comment-queue`,
`issue-queued-comments-routes`, `queued-comment-consumption`,
`heartbeat/run-state` (888 tests), `native-session-executor.test.ts`
(1306 tests), and the full `native-session-runtime.test.ts` (238 tests)
pass. `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` passes.
- Not done: no live run against a real provider or sandbox. Staging was
read only.

## Risks

- Previous-release state: a deferred wake saved by the previous release
has the same shape and is taken normally. A run saved by the previous
release has no receipt. If it is resumed before its first turn, it seals
on the new release. If its provider already accepted a turn, Interrupt
stops it as before. A run saved by the previous release while it was in
`turn.start` but before acceptance counts as unsealed, so in that short
window an Interrupt does not stop it and the message is delivered at the
turn boundary.
- Rollback: if the server rolls back after a run sealed and its turn was
accepted, the old release does not read the receipt and can deliver
those messages a second time.
- A first turn that does not use the fresh-turn path (restart
continuation, disposition-only recovery) does not call the claim. Its
messages are delivered at the turn boundary as before.
- A message that arrives after the seal waits for the turn boundary.
Interrupt stops the run as before.
- No schema migration. The receipt is a key in the run context.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 43fe87795a fix(authz): make board-only denials final and actionable for agents (#20151)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - People talk to their agents in Agent Chat, and the agents act
through the Paperclip API
> - Many API routes are board-only. The shared `assertBoard` check
returns 403 `"Board access required"` to an agent, with no other detail
> - The chat guidance also told the agent to "use permitted discovery to
identify the supported operator path" after such a denial
> - So the agent keeps searching the API, `call_api` and the shell for a
second route. On a slow model, this search uses the whole reply window
and the person gets no answer
> - Earlier single-route fixes (#19990, #20041, #20008) showed the
remedy: a denial that says it is final and names where the person acts.
Reply time fell from 10-24 minutes to about 2 minutes
> - This pull request applies that remedy once, in the shared board-only
check and in the chat guidance
> - The benefit is a prompt, correct handoff for every board-only action
that an agent cannot do

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19990, #20008, #20041 (same remedy for single routes).

**What happened**
In about 30 Agent Chat evaluation cases on a slower model, the agent got
403 "Board access required" (or read `authorization.actor: "board"` in
the API catalog). Then it searched for another route until the attempt
deadline. Examples: archive a company, set up a managed agent profile,
add a company secret. In one recorded run, the agent got the 403 at
minute 1, then tried PATCH, environment variables, the CLI and UI paths
for more than 3 more minutes, and never replied.

**Expected behavior**
A board-only denial is final. The agent stops, tells the person that a
board user must do the action, links the page in the Paperclip web app
where they can do it, and ends its reply.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Open Agent Chat with a CEO agent.
2. Ask it to archive the company (or to add a company secret).
3. The agent calls `POST /api/companies/{id}/archive` and gets `{
"error": "Board access required" }`.
4. The body says nothing about finality or where the person acts. The
agent searches for other routes and replies late or not at all.

## What Changed

- `server/src/routes/authz.ts`: `assertBoard` now throws
`boardAccessRequired(req)`. For an agent actor, the 403 body adds `code:
"board_access_required"` and a `remediation`. The remediation says the
action is board-only by design, the denial is final, and no other route
can do it. When the API path maps to a known board page, it links that
page with a `<prefix>` placeholder: company settings, company secrets,
budgets, members, tool gateways, connection settings (decision model,
prompt injection prevention), an approval, or the agent profile tab that
holds the control (API keys, permissions, budget, identity, harness
settings). Otherwise it says to link a page only when the route is
already known, and not to search for one. Board and anonymous actors get
the same body as before.
- `environments.ts`, `instance-settings.ts` and the issue force-release
route used their own copy of the check. They now call `assertBoard`, so
they return the same denial. Status and error text do not change.
- `server/src/middleware/error-handler.ts`: for this code, the handler
does not repeat `code` and `remediation` inside `details`. They are
already top-level, and the copy only made the agent's context longer.
- `AGENT_CHAT_DIRECTIVE`: the board-identity paragraph now says that a
board-only operation (catalog actor `board`, or a 403 "Board access
required") is final. The agent must stop searching, tell the person
which control in the web app to use, and link it when it knows the
route. The old instruction to "discover the operator path" is removed.
- Claude Managed Agent setup: the Paperclip Runner configuration doc and
the `POST /api/companies/{companyId}/managed-agent-profiles` catalog
entry now say that a board operator creates and qualifies the profile
(limited environment, retention acknowledgement) and that agents cannot.
Before, an agent asked for an "Anthropic managed agent" explored hiring
and adapter docs for its whole reply window.
- Tests: new `board-access-denial.test.ts` covers the agent body for
each mapped page, the agent profile tabs, the general fallback, the
unmapped fast-response route, the org-access guard, the unchanged
non-agent body, the guidance and the managed profile catalog entry. Two
exact-body tests now also expect the new code.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run src/__tests__/board-access-denial.test.ts
src/__tests__/costs-service.test.ts
src/__tests__/browser-use-route-scope.test.ts
src/__tests__/primary-agent-guidance.test.ts
src/__tests__/agent-cross-tenant-authz-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/company-portability-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/issue-comment-cancel-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/error-handler.test.ts
src/__tests__/managed-agent-profile-routes-authz.test.ts
src/__tests__/companies-route-cross-company-authz.test.ts
src/__tests__/environment-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/environment-instance-routes.test.ts`: all pass.
- Real chat journeys on the chat evaluation branch (runner-opencode,
`deepseek-v4.1-flash`). Before this change, each case below got no reply
before its deadline:
- `companies.archive-company`: passed. Reply 47 s after the request
(before: none in 270 s). The agent read the remediation and linked
`/COM/company/settings`.
- `companies.configure-decision-model`: passed. Reply 68 s after the
request (before: none in 389 s). It linked
`/COM/company/settings/connections`.
- `companies.prompt-injection-guard`: reply 85 s after the request
(before: none in 390 s), with the correct handoff and link. The case
still fails later, in the scripted settings step: the saved model is the
default, not the model the script typed. That is a separate defect.
- `navigation-preferences.sidebar-order`: reply 99 s after the request
(before: none in 150 s). The case still fails in its scripted sidebar
step (a locator was not found).
- `secrets.configure-company-secret`: reply 6.5 min after the request
(before: none in 7.5 min). The reply is correct, but a grader keyword
check reads "chat is not a safe place to send it" as a request for the
secret.
- `agents.managed-profile`: still no reply in its 150 s window. After
the catalog change, the agent found the board-only profile setup within
30 s, but then spent about 90 s deciding what "Anthropic managed agent"
means.

## Risks

- Low risk. The HTTP status and the `error` text stay the same for every
actor. Board users and anonymous callers get the same body as before.
- Agent actors now get two more top-level fields (`code`,
`remediation`). A client that compares the whole 403 body of an agent
call exactly will see a change. Two server tests did this and are
updated.
- The page map uses the API path. A wrong map entry gives a less useful
link but does not change authorization.

## Model Used

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 c49ab6b9ee feat(issues): wake the parent once when a child or blocker stalls on the board (#20098)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A parent task delegates to children and waits on blockers. Its agent
learns of progress only through wakes
> - Today only completion (`issue_children_completed`) and resolution
(`issue_blockers_resolved`) wake a waiting issue
> - In restart chaos `w-20261108T181313-s9701` t05, a blocker stopped on
a recovery action that needs the board, and its parent sat silently
blocked for 50+ minutes
> - This pull request wakes the waiting agent once per such stall, tells
it what it can do, and shows the stall on the parent's page with the
child's Retry
> - The benefit is that a stuck child or blocker no longer silently
strands its parent

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19831 (durable ownership plan; restart chaos campaign). Restart
chaos wave `w-20261108T181313-s9701`, task t05 (M1, claude).

**Problem**

From the kept database:
- CHA-8 `blocks` CHA-5.
- CHA-8's board-owned recovery action (`native_session_retry_exhausted`)
was created at 18:44:02.909 and resolved with outcome `blocked` at
18:44:08, when CHA-8 moved to `blocked` for the board.
- CHA-5's only wake in the whole wave was its `issue_assigned` at
18:20:48. Its agent never heard about CHA-8.

**Expected behavior**
- When a child or blocker stalls on the board, the waiting agent is
woken once. It can then re-delegate, escalate, or block with a reason.
- The board sees the stall on the waiting task, with the child's Retry.

## What Changed

- **Shared:**
- `ISSUE_BLOCKER_STALLED_WAKE_REASON` (`issue_blocker_stalled`),
`ISSUE_BLOCKER_STALL_RELATIONS`, and the types
`IssueBlockerStallRelation` and `IssueBlockerStalledWakeContext`;
  - `Issue.stalledDependencies`.
- **Server, `services/recovery/blocker-stall-wakeups.ts`:**
- A stall is an issue that is not done or cancelled, whose latest
recovery action needs the board. That means either open
(`active`/`escalated`) and board-owned or escalated, or board-owned and
resolved as `blocked` while the issue is still `blocked`. The second
case is what t05 needed: recovery resolves its action that way when it
hands the issue to the board.
- Waiters are the parent, and every issue the stalled one `blocks`, when
they are open, visible and agent-assigned.
- Each waiter gets one wake per stall. The idempotency key
`issue_blocker_stalled:{waiter}:{stalled}:{recoveryActionId}` is checked
through the indexed `(company_id, payload->>'issueId')` path. A later
stall has a new action id, so it wakes again.
  - Each wake writes activity `issue.blocker_stalled_wake`.
- The pass runs from the recovery-action sweep
(`reconcileActiveRecoveryActions`) and from the per-issue blocked sweep
(`reconcileResolvedDependencyWakeBackstop`, which visits each blocked
issue). No new worker.
- A waiter's agent that cannot read the stalled issue (`issue:read`,
which honors private visibility) is woken without its title, identifier
or recovery details; the activity entry withholds them too.
- **Database:** migration `0450` adds the partial unique index
`agent_wakeup_requests_issue_blocker_stalled_uq` on `(company_id,
idempotency_key)` for `issue_blocker_stalled:` keys in delivered or
pending statuses, so two concurrent sweeps cannot both deliver a stall.
It is built `CONCURRENTLY IF NOT EXISTS` outside a transaction (listed
in `MIGRATIONS_WITH_TOP_LEVEL_STATEMENTS`).
- **Queue:** `allowsDependencyBlockedWake` (in
`run-dispatch/domain/wake-context.ts`) lets a stall wake run while the
waiter's blockers are unresolved, at both dependency gates. Without it
the wake was parked until the stalled blocker resolved, which is never.
Pause holds are unchanged.
- **Agent guidance:** the wake payload carries `blockerStall`, and
`renderPaperclipWakePrompt` adds a "Stalled dependency" section. It
names the task and its recovery action and the board's next action, then
the three choices: re-delegate, escalate with a comment, or block with a
reason naming the stalled task.
- **Other reason lists:** `issue_blocker_stalled` joins the
responsible-user wake reasons, the conversation execution-wake reasons
(it never drives a chat turn) and the wake diagnostic's known reasons.
- **Board surface:**
- `GET /issues/:id` returns `stalledDependencies`, readable issues only
(`readableIssueEdgeIds`).
- `StalledDependencyNotice` shows on the issue's chat notices, next to
`IssueBlockedNotice`: each stalled child or blocker, its board next
action, a link, and the child's own Retry (`useTaskRetry`), offered only
when the child's interruption allows it.

## Verification

Red/green:
- `server/src/__tests__/issue-blocker-stall-wakeups.test.ts` (14 tests).
  - On master: no `issue_blocker_stalled` wake is raised.
- With this PR: the parent is woken once per stall, and re-woken after a
new stall. A blocker's dependent is woken.
- The t05 shape (an action resolved as `blocked`) wakes once, and
nothing more after a Retry.
- No wake for an agent-owned action, a done, unassigned or hidden
waiter, or an action resolved another way.
  - `listStalledDependencies` lists children and blockers.
- `heartbeat-dependency-scheduling.test.ts` "admits an
issue_blocker_stalled wake while a blocker is unresolved". On master the
wake was parked (`null`); once admitted, the run-start gate cancelled
it. With this PR it runs with `dependencyBlockedInteraction`. The file:
14 passed.
- `packages/adapter-utils` `server-utils.test.ts`: the new prompt test
failed on master (no `blockerStall`). The file: 141 passed.
- `ui/src/components/StalledDependencyNotice.test.tsx`: 3 passed.
`IssueChatThread.test.tsx`: 109 passed.

Regression and static checks:
- Nearby server suites (recovery durable wait, dependency wake routes,
recovery actions, run-preparation): 149 passed.
- `tsc --noEmit` passes for `packages/shared`, `server` and `ui/src`.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` is clean.

Review round 1 (Greptile, Superagent), each with a regression:
- A backlog waiter is never woken. The waiter's status and assignee are
guarded at enqueue.
- One stall per run: no coalescing, so a merged run cannot keep only the
last stall's context.
- Only a delivered or pending wake ends a stall. A refused one
(wake-on-demand off) is retried after 10 minutes, and an agent that
takes no wakes is skipped without writing a row.
- Company-wide passes resume after the last stall a capped pass reached.
The per-issue sweep also checks the issue's own children and blockers,
which covers an unassigned stalled blocker.
- The dependency gates no longer trust the reason string.
`verifyBlockerStallWake` requires a system request, the stalled issue's
current stall action, and a real child or blocker edge. An
agent-requested wake with the same context is parked (tested).
- The notice shows a refused Retry's reason, and a lost response as
"Taking longer than usual…", with Retry still available (tested).

Review round 2 (Greptile), each with a regression:
- Race: two passes claiming one stall leave one delivered row (unique
index; the loser's insert is skipped).
- The company recovery sweep selects companies whose only stall is a
resolved-`blocked` board action, so an unassigned stalled blocker with a
todo waiter is reached.
- Private stalled issue: the waiter's wake and activity carry no title,
identifier or recovery details.
- `GET /issues/:id` always returns `stalledDependencies`, so a cleared
stall replaces the cached list.
- The notice shows a failed child read with a Reload button (tested).
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db check:migrations` passes.

Review round 3 (Greptile), each with a regression:
- A stall wake that fails to enqueue is retried: the recovery-action
pass reports `blockerStallWakeFailures` and the dependency pass counts
it in `enqueueFailed`, so the worker throws and retries at its backoff
(`issue-recovery-work-lifecycle.test.ts`).
- The notice drops a stall once the child's refreshed status has moved
on (`StalledDependencyNotice.test.tsx`, 7 tests).

## Risks

- A deploy wakes the waiters of every issue that is stalled today, once
each. That is intended (they are stranded now), and it's bounded at 200
stalls per pass.
- A stall wake may run while blockers are unresolved, like a comment
wake. It is bounded to one per stall, and pause holds still apply.
- The agent skill (`skills/paperclip`, CODEOWNER-owned) does not yet
list the new reason. The wake prompt carries the guidance.
- One additive index, built concurrently; no persisted run state change.
Existing rows cannot violate it before deploy, since no
`issue_blocker_stalled:` keys exist yet.

## Model Used

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 0746d1203d feat(recovery): let the board confirm that an unrecorded owner stopped (#20067)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - After a restart, recovery releases an in-progress record only once
its owner is proven gone, never by age
> - A run lease saved before owners were stamped has no owner Paperclip
can judge on an ephemeral (multi-host) server, so it stays stuck and
holds its run's sandbox forever
> - Only a person can tell that the previous server stopped (for
example, its container was replaced)
> - This pull request asks the board on the stuck task and lets an owner
confirm the stop, with an activity-log entry; recovery then releases the
record on its normal path
> - The benefit is that legacy stuck records have a way out that never
guesses

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Follow-up to the Phase 2 durable-ownership work: #20054 (controller
instance lease) and #19883 (process-space recording). It generalizes the
existing "confirm the previous server stopped" action for native
controllers (`native_controller_host_unverified`). No duplicate PR was
found.

**What happened?**

On an ephemeral server, an active run lease of a finished run that was
saved before holders were stamped has no owner stamp. The ownership
reconciler reports it `unprovable (no_owner_stamp)` and never settles
it. No operator action exists, so the lease and its sandbox stay
reserved.

**Expected behavior**

The task shows the stuck resource, and a board owner can confirm that
the previous server stopped. Recovery then releases the lease. Agents
and operators without the owner-stop permission cannot.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run with `PAPERCLIP_EPHEMERAL_SERVER=true`.
2. Have an active environment lease with no `leaseController` stamp,
whose run is terminal.
3. Run an ownership reconciliation pass. The lease stays `unprovable`
with no action on the task.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`master` before this PR.

## What Changed

- `packages/shared`: `confirmOwnerGoneSchema` (`actionId`, `recordId`,
`stopEvidence` of 20 to 12000 characters).
- `recovery/owner-gone-attestation.ts`:
- `requestOwnerGoneConfirmation(kind)` is an `onUnprovable` hook. For a
legacy unprovable owner (`no_owner_stamp`, `process_space_unrecorded`,
`missing_identity`) on a record that has a task, it opens one idempotent
board recovery action on that task (cause `ownership_owner_unprovable`).
- `confirmOwnerGone(...)` verifies the exact action and record. It asks
the kind to write the attestation (compare-and-swap), resolves the
action, and writes an `issue.ownership_owner_gone_confirmed`
activity-log entry with the actor and the stated evidence.
- Ownership registry:
  - `OwnableKind.attestOwnerGone` is a new optional hook.
- `environment_run_lease_active` implements it: only an unstamped active
lease of a terminal run, with the notification for the cleanup path.
- The lease's owner then reads `operator_attested`, which proves gone,
so the existing settle releases it. A holder stamped since the board was
asked owns the lease, and its stamp decides.
- Route: `POST /api/issues/<built-in function
id>/recovery-actions/confirm-owner-gone`. It uses `assertBoard` plus
`runtime:confirm_owner_stop`, the same board-only permission as
confirm-controller-stopped. It is registered in OpenAPI.
- UI: `issuesApi.confirmOwnerGone`. The task's recovery card shows the
existing `PreviousServerStopConfirmation` for this cause, with
resource-specific wording; owners confirm and operators see the wait.
`isPreviousServerStopCause` includes the cause, so the generic card does
not offer other resolutions.

## Verification

- `owner-gone-attestation.test.ts`:
  - the stuck lease opens one board action on the task;
- confirmation resolves the action, writes the activity log, and the
next pass settles the lease (`operator_attested`) exactly once;
  - a mismatched record is refused with 409;
- a holder stamped after the ask is refused and the lease stays active;
  - no action for a judgeable owner or for a record with no task.
- Red, with the `onUnprovable` hook removed: 2 of 3 fail.
- UI: `WorkspaceExportRecovery.control.test.tsx` checks that the owner
confirms with the right payload and that an operator sees the wait
without the control (47/47).
- Server suites: openapi-routes, ownership and recovery suites, plus the
existing native-controller-host recovery. Low-memory server typecheck is
clean; `check:token-gates` is clean.

## Risks

- The board can attest a server stopped that is in fact running. The
action and the UI copy ask for the evidence, and the activity log
records who attested what. This is the same trust model as
confirm-controller-stopped.
- Only run leases opt in so far. Records without a task (login/probe
leases) keep the legacy idle sweep.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 4638e5ea30 fix(issues): make the queued-comment discard denial final and link the task (#19990)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - People queue follow-up messages on a task while its agent works, and
only the author can discard a queued message
> - When a person asks a chat agent to cancel their queued message, the
agent tries the discard API and gets a 403
> - The 403 text does not say that the denial is final, so the agent
searches for a board or admin route before it answers
> - In a slow model this search takes many minutes, and the queued
message can be delivered before the person gets the answer
> - This pull request makes both denials say that only the author can
discard the message, where to do it (with the task link), and that no
override exists
> - The benefit is that the agent can relay the human route at once

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened**
A person asked the chat agent to cancel a contact-section request that
they had queued on a worker's task. The agent called `DELETE
/api/issues/:id/queued-comments/:commentId` and got 403 "Board access
required". It then called `DELETE /api/issues/:id/comments/:commentId`
and got 403 "Only the comment author can cancel queued comments". In two
eval runs the agent then continued to search the API for an override. It
answered after 10 minutes and 24 minutes. In the second run, the worker
consumed the queued message before the answer arrived.

**Expected behavior**
The denial tells the agent that the action is author-only and final, and
gives the task link where the author can discard the message. The agent
can then answer the person immediately.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start an agent run on a task. Queue a comment on that task as a board
user.
2. As a different agent, call `DELETE
/api/issues/<task>/queued-comments/<comment>` with the current `queueId`
and `revision`.
3. See 403 "Board access required", with no next step and no statement
that the denial is final.

Refs the chat eval case `steering.discard-queued-message`.

## What Changed

- `DELETE /issues/:id/queued-comments/:commentId`: an agent actor now
gets a 403 that says only the author can discard the queued comment from
its menu on the linked task, and that no board, admin or agent override
exists. The task must be in the agent's company. Otherwise the route
returns 404 as before.
- `DELETE /issues/:id/comments/:commentId` (queued cancel by a
non-author): uses the same message.
- Tests: the agent denial on the queued-comments route, the
cross-company 404 without task details, and the updated non-author
cancel message.

## Verification

- `cd server && pnpm exec vitest run
src/__tests__/issue-comment-cancel-routes.test.ts` passes (9 tests).
- I will run the chat eval `steering.discard-queued-message` with this
change cherry-picked, and record the result in a comment.

## Risks

- Low risk. Only the 403 text changes, and agents now get the 403 after
the company access check instead of before it. Board behavior and the
author-only rule do not change.
- The UI shows this text if a non-author person tries to cancel a queued
comment. The text stays correct for that person.

## Model Used

- Anthropic Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), agentic coding with
tool use (shell, file editing) in Claude Code.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 02898b98de fix(issues): do not wake the assignee for an issue created already closed (#19961)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Creating an issue with an agent assignee queues an `issue_assigned`
wake for that agent
> - The create path skips the wake only for `backlog` and the onboarding
first task
> - An issue created already `done` or `cancelled` is a record of
finished work, but it still wakes the assignee
> - The update path already refuses this case ("Restoring an assignee on
completed work is not a reopen request"), and create-time fast responses
already skip `done` and `cancelled`
> - This pull request applies the same closed-status guard to the
create-time assignment wake
> - The benefit is that recording finished work does not start a run,
spend tokens, or queue behind the agent's current work

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened**

In a chat eval, setup created a historical issue with `status: "done"`
assigned to an agent that was already running a task. The create queued
a second run for that agent (`invocationSource: assignment`,
`wakeReason: issue_assigned`, `source: issue.create`). The run waited
behind the active run, and then was cancelled or failed. The eval
expected no work for a finished record.

**Expected behavior**

Creating an issue that is already `done` or `cancelled` does not wake
its assignee. This matches the update path, where an assignee change on
closed work is not a reopen request.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create an agent.
2. `POST /api/companies/<companyId>/issues` with
`{"title":"Record","status":"done","assigneeAgentId":"<agentId>"}`.
3. See a new `agent_wakeup_requests` row and a queued heartbeat run for
the agent.

## What Changed

- `server/src/routes/issues.ts`: the create route does not call
`queueIssueAssignmentWakeup` when the created issue status is `done` or
`cancelled` (`isClosedIssueStatus`).
- `server/src/__tests__/issue-onboarding-first-task-routes.test.ts`: a
regression test for `done` and `cancelled` creates. The existing test
that an ordinary assigned create still wakes is unchanged.

## Verification

- `cd server && pnpm exec vitest run
src/__tests__/issue-onboarding-first-task-routes.test.ts`: 11 passed.
- Negative control: with the route file from `origin/master`, both new
cases fail.

## Risks

- Low risk. Only creates in a closed status change. A caller that relied
on a create-time wake for a closed issue no longer gets one. To start
work, the caller creates the issue in an open status or reopens it,
which still wakes the assignee.

execution in Claude Code.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 ccce55ab11 fix(issues): tell callers when a task list page is capped (#19972)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents read company tasks through `GET
/api/companies/{companyId}/issues`, often through the runner `call_api`
tool
> - The route caps each page at `limit` (500 by default, 1000 at most)
and returns a bare array
> - A capped page and a complete list look the same, so an agent cannot
tell that rows are missing
> - In an eval with 501 open tasks, the agent got 500 rows and reported
498 tasks as the complete list
> - This pull request adds a "more results exist" signal and the
next-page position, and surfaces it to agents
> - The benefit is that agents page until the list is complete instead
of presenting a partial list

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened**

The chat eval `tasks.organize-open-work` seeds 501 open Launch tasks.
The agent called `GET /api/companies/{companyId}/issues` through
`call_api`. The route returned exactly 500 rows (the default limit) and
gave no signal that more rows existed. The agent noted that exactly 500
rows was suspicious and that some tasks were missing. It still reported
the partial list as complete.

**Expected behavior**

A capped list response tells the caller that more results exist and how
to get the next page. The agent-facing tool result shows the same signal
next to the data.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create 501 tasks with status `todo` in one company.
2. Call `GET /api/companies/{companyId}/issues?status=todo`.
3. See that the response has 500 rows and no header or field that says
more rows exist.

## What Changed

- `server/src/routes/issues.ts`: the company issue list fetches one row
past the page. It then sets `X-Paperclip-Has-More` (`true`/`false`) and
`X-Paperclip-Limit` on every page. A capped page also sets
`X-Paperclip-Next-Offset`, and `X-Paperclip-Next-After-Id` for
`sortField=id&sortDir=asc` cursor paging. Pagination is reported only to
actors who can read the whole company's task list; actors whose rows are
filtered after the query (such as low-trust agents) get no pagination
headers, so the raw page cannot reveal tasks they cannot read.
`oneChildPerParent` lists are ordered by parent first, so they page by
offset and never advertise an id cursor. The body is unchanged (still an
array). The Mine inbox path does not change.
- `server/src/services/native-runtime/runner-api-client.ts`: `call_api`
results for successful responses that carry these headers include
`pagination: { hasMore, truncated, limit, nextOffset, nextAfterId?,
guidance? }`. The guidance tells the agent to repeat the call with the
next `offset`/`afterId` until `hasMore` is false. The field is also
present when the body is saved as an artifact. Routes without the
headers get no new field.
- `server/src/routes/openapi.ts`: the API catalog entry documents
`limit`, `offset`, `sortField`, `sortDir`, `afterId`, the headers and
the `call_api` pagination field.
- Tests for capped, cursor, last, exact-size and default-limit (501
rows) pages in all list projections, for offset-only paging of
`oneChildPerParent` lists, for a low-trust agent receiving no pagination
headers, and for the `call_api` pagination field.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/issues-list-query-parsing.test.ts
src/__tests__/low-trust-red-team-routes.test.ts` — 31 passed.
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/issues-list-query-parsing.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/runner-api.test.ts` — passes. Without the
source change, 8 of the new tests fail.
- `cd server && npx vitest run src/__tests__/inbox-mine-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/issue-list-assignee-filter-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/issue-list-updatedsince-filter-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/runner-api*` — 2237 passed, 2 skipped.
- `tsc --noEmit -p server/tsconfig.json` shows no errors in the changed
files.

## Risks

- Low risk. The response body shape does not change. Existing clients
ignore the new headers.
- Each list query reads one more row. The extra row is enriched and then
dropped. The cost is small.
- `call_api` results gain an optional `pagination` field. Consumers that
do not know the field ignore it.
- Agents whose task reads are filtered after the query (low-trust
agents) still get no truncation signal, as before; a raw-page signal
would leak hidden tasks. Pushing their boundary into the list query
would let them have one later.
- Other capped list routes do not set the headers yet. They can adopt
the same headers later.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 cbf811cd3b fix(recovery): prove a replaced deployment's copyback owner gone automatically (#19913)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs save their workspace after the result is accepted, under
a copyback owner receipt
> - A deploy can restart the server while that save is in progress
> - The new server runs in a new container, so it cannot see the old
process and fails closed
> - The run then waits on a board action that asks a person to verify
the previous controller
> - Recoveries must continue without a human step, and copy must not ask
anyone to inspect a server
> - This pull request adds a deployment-level rule to the shared
owner-liveness primitive and uses it in workspace finalization
> - The benefit is that a save interrupted by a deploy resumes on its
own, with no second writer

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
A deploy restarted the server while three runs were saving their
accepted results. Each run kept a copyback owner receipt that names the
old Railway deployment on another container. The restarted server
reported `native_workspace_finalization_owner_unverified`, owned by the
board, with the next action "Verify the previous controller and its
workspace-copyback processes have stopped...". The cloud harness stop
receipt did not arrive, so the runs stayed in "Recovery needed" for
about an hour, until a person confirmed the stop by hand.

**Expected behavior**
The restarted server proves that the previous controller is gone,
resumes the save, and settles the run with no human step. No user-facing
text asks a person to verify a server or controller.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a native run on a Railway service with a volume.
2. Let the result be accepted and the workspace save start.
3. Deploy, so that the server restarts during the save.
4. See that the run waits for a board confirmation.

**Paperclip version or commit**
Observed on e2d490c61. Reproduced on master before this change. The
owner-proof work in #19848, #19851, #19853, #19868, #19871 and #19883
does not cover this shape: `proveOwnerGone` returns `unprovable`
(`different_host`) for an owner on another container.

## What Changed

- `owner-proof.ts`: `LocalOwnerStamp` can carry the platform `worker`
(deployment identity). `ProcessProbe` can carry this process's
deployment and whether the platform gives it an exclusive volume. New
verdict reason `deployment_replaced`.
- New rule in `proveOwnerGone`, after the current-boot check: the owner
is gone when this server runs with a Railway volume
(`RAILWAY_VOLUME_ID`, `RAILWAY_VOLUME_MOUNT_PATH`) and the stamp names
the same project, environment and service with a different deployment
ID. Railway stops the previous deployment before it mounts the volume
into the new one, and a service with a volume has no replicas. So every
process of the old deployment, including orphaned copyback children, has
exited.
- `native-workspace-finalization-ownership.ts`: evaluate that proof
before the cloud harness request. On `deployment_replaced`, claim the
exact owner receipt under the existing advisory lock and row-lock
revalidation, log `issue.workspace_owner_stop_verified` with
`deploymentProof`, mark the recovery `resuming`, and continue the save
with no provider turn. Other cases keep the harness request and the
existing fences.
- New owner receipts also record the mounted volume ID (`volumeId`).
When a receipt has it, the proof requires this server to mount the same
volume. Both `RAILWAY_VOLUME_ID` and `RAILWAY_VOLUME_MOUNT_PATH` must be
set. The finalizer reaches this check only while it holds the run's
copyback advisory lock, so the old owner's lock session has also ended.
- Copy: the hold's next action, the route conflict and the two Retry
wait messages now describe the wait. They no longer ask a person to
verify a server or controller. The hold's text still names the Resume
saved result action for platforms where neither this rule nor the
harness can confirm the stop.
- `doc/native-workspace-finalization-recovery.md`: describe the rule.

Previous-release story: receipts written by earlier releases already
record `worker.deploymentId`, so they carry forward and take this path
after the upgrade. No schema change.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-workspace-owner-restart-recovery.test.ts
src/services/owner-proof.test.ts`
- Before the fix: "resumes the interrupted save automatically, with no
board action" fails (`acquired: false`).
  - After the fix: all pass.
- The restart test seeds the staging receipt shape (old deployment,
other hostname, PID 3, existing `operator_required` hold). It checks
that the save resumes once, the hold becomes `resuming`, the task
presentation no longer waits for a user, the receipt clears, and no
agent wake is created.
- Negative cases stay fenced: same deployment, a service without a
volume, a half-configured volume, another service, another environment,
and a receipt that names a different volume. Unit tests cover the same
rule in `proveOwnerGone`, including that the current boot stays alive.
- Related suites pass: finalizer, queued-wake recovery, route ownership,
workspace recovery gates and dispatch, explicit continuation, recovery
services (1005 tests).
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` passes.

## Risks

- The rule depends on Railway volume exclusivity. It applies only when
this server has a volume mounted and the receipt names the same service
and environment. Without a volume, the existing harness and board paths
still apply.
- A receipt from a deployment that ran before the volume was attached
could, in theory, overlap during that one redeploy. Volumes are attached
at stack creation, so this is not a practical case.
- Copy changes are text only. Error codes are unchanged.

would not be stranded at upgrade
> - On an ephemeral (multi-host) server that fallback is unsafe: the row
may have been written on another host
> - This pull request limits the fallback to single-host servers,
records every use, and gives ephemeral servers a working board action
> - The benefit is that single-host upgrades still recover on their own,
multi-host servers never accept a cross-host proof, and the next release
can remove the fallback with evidence

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Bug description**
After #19868 and #19871, a `native_run_finalizations` row with
`controller_host_hash = null`, or a run with `process_host_hash = null`,
still accepted "the pid is dead here" as proof on every server. That
includes an ephemeral server, where the row may come from another host.
Nothing recorded how often the fallback was used, so it had no safe
removal path.

**Expected behavior**
- Single-host server: the fallback applies for one release, and each use
writes a `legacy_host_unknown_dead_pid_proof` activity-log entry.
- Ephemeral server (`PAPERCLIP_EPHEMERAL_SERVER=true`): the row is
unprovable, and the board has an action to confirm the previous server
stopped.
- A mismatched host is always unprovable.

Refs #19868, #19871, #19846

## What Changed

- `native-restart-recovery.ts` `evaluateNativeControllerTakeover`:
- A coordinator row with `controllerHostHash: null` returns
`controller_host_unrecorded` when `ephemeralServerEnabled()` is true.
- Otherwise a pid proof from that row carries `legacyHostFallback:
true`.
- `operator_attested` is accepted as proof
(`operator_attested_controller_stopped`).
  - Receipt-built owners, which have no host key, are unchanged.
- New `recordLegacyHostFallbackProof` writes the activity-log entry. It
is not a run-log event: run events are progress evidence for restart
recovery's crash-loop credit, and the record must not change any
recovery decision. It is called from restart recovery, the
dead-controller result-lease release, native retirement, and remote
warm-session recovery.
- New `native-controller-host-recovery.ts`:
- `requestNativeControllerStopConfirmation` (board-owned
`native_controller_host_unverified` recovery action, idempotent, never
displaces another active action).
- `confirmNativeControllerStopped`. It verifies the exact recorded
controller and stamps `operator_attested` with compare-and-set. It then
resolves the action, wakes live-run recovery, and logs
`issue.native_controller_stop_confirmed`.
- Route `POST /issues/:id/recovery-actions/confirm-controller-stopped`.
It is board-only and requires `runtime:confirm_owner_stop`. Generic
`restored`/`false_positive` resolution of this cause is refused. A
shared `confirmNativeControllerStoppedSchema` validates the body.
- UI: `WorkspaceExportRecovery` reuses the "Confirm the previous server
stopped" control for this cause, and the generic recovery card hides it.
Adds the `issuesApi.confirmControllerStopped` client call.
- `recovery/service.ts` orphan reaper: a null `process_host_hash` is
judged only when not ephemeral. A successful use records the entry
best-effort, after the terminal write. On an ephemeral server the run is
left to its existing Stop control.
- `ephemeralServerEnabled` moves to a leaf `ephemeral-server-mode.ts`
(re-exported by `ephemeral-server-contract.ts`). Importing the contract
module from recovery code created an import cycle in the runner child
process.
- The new route is registered in OpenAPI.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: documents the host rule and the
one-release sunset.

## Verification

- `native-restart-recovery.test.ts`: null host on a single-host server
is released with the flag. Null host on an ephemeral server is
unprovable. A mismatched host is unprovable in both modes. An attested
controller is accepted. Receipt owners are unchanged.
- New `native-controller-host-recovery.test.ts` (embedded Postgres):
  - The fallback writes the activity-log entry and no run event.
  - Ephemeral mode creates exactly one board action.
  - A wrong run id is refused.
- Confirmation stamps the attestation, after which takeover is allowed.
The action resolves and the activity is logged. A second confirmation is
refused.
- `recovery-stale-issue-lock-sweep.test.ts`: on a single-host server a
null host is terminalized and records one event. On an ephemeral server
it is left alone with no event. The existing audit-failure case still
clears the lock.
- `WorkspaceExportRecovery.control.test.tsx`: the controller
confirmation posts to `confirmControllerStopped` and never to the
copyback endpoint.
- Locally: these suites plus `remote-warm-session-recovery`,
`native-controller-recovery.integration` and
`native-startup-cleanup-recovery` (136 passed), and after the CI fixes
`native-runner-restart-preparation` and `native-runner-restart-recovery`
integration, `openapi-routes` and the suites above (256 passed); the UI
recovery suites (52 passed); `node scripts/typecheck-layers.mjs` with no
errors in the touched files; `pnpm check:token-gates` clean.

## Risks

- Previous-release story: no schema change. Null-host rows saved by
earlier releases recover as before on single-host servers, now with an
event, and wait for the board on ephemeral servers. The next release
removes the fallback; the event count shows whether any rows remain.
- On an ephemeral server, a null-host orphaned run process is not reaped
automatically. The operator uses Stop. That is the intended "unprovable"
outcome.
- A board confirmation is an attestation. It applies only to the exact
recorded controller (boot id + pid) and only while the host is still
unrecorded.

131b566ca4 fix(workspaces): report safe Git restore diagnostics (#19736)
Return the restore stage and failure category with the existing HTTP409 rejection. Preserve the unsaved comment and editable draft. Keep nested saved-commit and clone-timeout diagnostics through preparation wrappers, and distinguish local Git file errors from authentication failures. Retain only safe process flags privately; no raw command cause is exposed.

All seven affected local suites pass (288 tests) and the layered server typecheck passes on supported Node25.6.1. Reviewed head 022eb7c2eb has Greptile Apex5/5, zero unresolved findings and all applicable CI passing (55 successful checks and4 intentional skips).

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 70d23612dd fix: offer Interrupt when queued-message steering is unavailable (#19450)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets people manage work performed by AI agents.
> - Task chat saves follow-up messages while an agent runs.
> - A native runner can accept Steer only after an active provider turn
exists.
> - During preparation, or with an unsupported provider, the queue
showed a disabled Steer button and no delivery action.
> - The server also rejected Interrupt for ordinary native queues.
> - This change offers an explicit Interrupt fallback and uses the
existing cancellation and admission path.
> - People can send their saved messages while Stop confirmation,
cleanup, and execution gates remain enforced.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #15865 covers mixed legacy queues. #15030 covers steering
acknowledgements. This change covers native queues without available
steering.

**What happened?**

A queued message had a disabled Steer button while the native runner was
still preparing. Clicking it did nothing. The server returned HTTP 409
for an explicit Interrupt request against the same native queue.

**Expected behavior**

Offer Steer when the provider can accept same-turn input. Otherwise
offer Interrupt, labeled with its actual effect. Preserve saved messages
until the previous execution stops and normal admission accepts the
successor.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a task with the Paperclip Runner adapter.
2. Submit a follow-up while the run is preparing, before its provider
turn opens.
3. Observe the disabled Steer button above the composer.
4. With this change, click Interrupt. The existing Stop path cancels the
previous execution and submits the saved queue through normal admission.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced locally on master at 523818ea9b. The branch is rebased on
2f9d3d43c3.

## What Changed

- Offer Interrupt for unavailable or unsupported native steering when
the parent supplies an interrupt callback.
- Keep Steer for an available provider turn.
- Accept explicit Interrupt for a deferred native queue and record its
run target.
- Bind native continuation to the exact Interrupt queue, run, actor, and
cancellation receipt. This lets one click send the messages after Stop
completes.
- Add component, task-thread, real PostgreSQL route, and continuation
authorization regressions.
- Close the route fixture database pool before disposing its PostgreSQL
instance.
- Document the fallback and its Stop and admission requirements.

## Verification

- Red: two component cases failed because Interrupt was absent. Two
route cases returned HTTP 409, `This queue does not support
interruption`, before the repair.
- Red: stronger delivery assertions also caught `send_predates_stop`
after the first repair. The admission fix covers both the freshness
exception and later eligibility check.
- Green: both route regressions now wait for preparation settlement,
then deliver both saved messages exactly once without a second click.
The complete route suite passes 119 tests. The complete continuation
suite passes 376 tests, including wrong actor, queue, target, and
missing-receipt cases.
- UI: task-thread and queued-message suites pass 394 tests, with one
existing skip. The issue-page suite also passes (the earlier three-suite
run passed 644 tests before the final three UI cases).
- Token gates and `git diff --check` pass.
- Full workspace build and low-memory typecheck pass. The initial
typecheck caught a missing `membershipRole` in an unrelated fixture; the
rebase picked up the correction already on master, and the complete
typecheck then passed.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` passed all six chat shards (1,931
tests). It was stopped during general-server validation after the final
commit passed all PR CI gates. The complete local suite is not claimed
as a pass.
- Earlier route-suite teardown timed out with an open database pool.
Closing that pool fixed teardown; the complete route suite then passed.
- All final-head CI gates pass: 52 successful checks and two intentional
skips. Greptile is 5/5 on the same head with no unresolved review
threads.

## Risks

Interrupt stops the previous execution and starts a successor; it is a
different action from same-turn steering. The UI labels that action
explicitly. Cleanup or execution gates can keep the messages queued.
Existing company access, board permissions, queue revision, run target,
cancellation proof, and admission checks remain in place. No schema
migration is needed.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex (GPT-6), with reasoning, tool use, and code execution. The
exact model ID and context window are not exposed by this client.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 6ca7b151f7 feat: compact an agent's context from the task Properties panel (#19378)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A task's Properties panel shows the assignee agent's context window
(paperclipai/paperclip#19273)
> - The board can see that the context is nearly full, but it cannot act
on it
> - A full context makes the agent compact at an unplanned time, often
in the middle of work
> - This pull request adds "Compact now" to the Context hover card
> - The benefit is that the board can compact the agent's context
between runs, at a time it chooses

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs paperclipai/paperclip#19273

**Problem**
The Context row shows how full the agent's context window is. The board
cannot ask the agent to compact it.

**Proposed solution**
A "Compact now" button in the Context hover card. It runs the harness's
own compaction: Codex `thread/compact/start`, and Claude's `/compact`
command through ACP.

**Alternatives considered**
A separate PRP `session.compact` command. Both harnesses run compaction
as a turn, so a compaction turn keeps the existing durable turn binding,
interruption, and recovery. A separate command needs a second turn
lifecycle.

## What Changed

- UI: the Context hover card shows Compact now with three states:
available, Compacting…, and unavailable with a reason (agent mid-run,
harness unsupported, task closed). The Storybook story shows each state.
- Server: `POST /api/issues/:id/context/compact` (board only,
`decideIssueAccess` `issue:mutate`, activity log
`issue.context_compaction_requested`). It queues a short run marked by
`contextSnapshot.contextCompactionRequestId`. `GET
/issues/:id/context-usage` returns the `compaction` state.
- Server: a compaction run does no task work. The native status arbiter
preserves the task status. The lifecycle skips handoff, liveness
continuation, review-path disposition and the issue comment, as it does
for goal-control runs.
- Runner TS: `startTurn({ compact: true })`. The Codex harness session
sends `thread/compact/start`. The runnerd transport maps it to PRP
`turn.start` with `compact: true` (Codex) or `text: "/compact"`
(Claude/ACPX). The native runtime option `sessionCompaction` requires a
resumed session and settles with a synthesized yielded result.
- Runner Rust: `turn.start` accepts `compact: true` for Codex.
`CodexProvider::start_compaction_turn` sends `thread/compact/start` and
binds the turn from the `turn/started` that follows the empty response.
- Fix (from #19273): Codex emitted `context.compacted` on both the start
and the end of one compaction item. It now emits it once, and the count
is distinct by `compactionId`.
- Fix (from #19273): the conversation event view dropped
`context.compacted`, so a finished run never showed the divider. The
view now keeps compactions, plus context readings for runs that
compacted. A finished run's compactions show as thread dividers.
- Fix: the Codex harness stamps before/after sizes on the compaction
event. Codex reports the compacted size before the compaction item ends,
so the old neighbour-based guess showed the wrong size.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, `pnpm check:token-gates`, `node
scripts/storybook-catalog.mjs`: pass.
- New tests: `server/src/__tests__/context-compaction.test.ts`,
`status-arbiter.test.ts`, `issue-context-usage.test.ts` (duplicate
compaction counts once), `ui/.../context-usage-row.test.tsx`,
`native-session-runtime.test.ts` (context compaction), Codex driver and
runnerd transport tests, Rust
`codex_compaction_turn_binds_the_turn_reported_after_its_empty_response`.
Rust `codex_provider` suite: 115 passed.
- `pnpm test:run` locally: one failure in
`chat-channels.integration.test.ts`. It reads
`.claude/skills/slack/SKILL.md` from the main checkout, which is not
present in this worktree. It is not related to this change.
- Live, local worktree instance, Codex agent on the Paperclip runner:
clicked Compact now. The run succeeded. Context went from 35k to 9.4k
tokens, and later 9.4k to 9.2k. The task stayed In Review. The thread
shows "Context compacted · 9.4k → 9.2k tokens" and the meter dropped.
- Live Claude proof: pending. The local Claude agent needs an Anthropic
API key. claude-agent-acp handles `/compact` as an echo-less turn, and
the runner already maps its "Compacting completed." notice to
`context.compacted`.

## Risks

- A compaction run resumes the agent's session. If the session cannot
resume, the run fails with `native_context_compaction_unavailable` and
the task is unchanged.
- Compact now is not available while the agent runs on the task, because
compaction interrupts the active turn.
- The conversation view now returns context readings for runs that
compacted. Runs that never compacted return the same events as before.
- An old runner binary ignores `compact` and rejects the `turn.start`
because it has no text. It does not start an ordinary turn.

## Model Used

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 958f9aa9f3 feat(issues): limit agent-created task trees to parent and child (#19312)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents split work into tasks. A task can have a parent task.
> - Today agents can nest tasks to any depth: parent, child, grandchild,
and deeper.
> - Deep agent-made trees are hard to follow, and an agent that works on
a child task makes grandchildren by default.
> - This pull request limits agent-created trees to two levels: a
top-level task and its children.
> - A request for a grandchild does not fail. The server puts the new
task beside the requester and tells the agent.
> - Board users keep full control. They can still nest to any depth.
Existing deep trees stay valid.
> - The pull request also records which task created each new task, so
the audit trail stays complete when the parent changes.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists. This is the feature description. Related: #16853
(budgets that include descendant work) also reasons about task trees;
this change does not alter its traversal.

**Subsystem affected**

Issues (tasks): create, child create and move in the issue service and
routes. Agent tools, chat suggestions and creation provenance use these
paths.

**Problem or motivation**

Agents create subtasks as deep as they want. An agent that runs on a
child task gets that child as the default parent, so its follow-ups
become grandchildren. The trees become deep and hard to read. The parent
link is also the only record of which task created a follow-up, so that
record is lost when the parent changes.

**Proposed solution**

Limit agent-created trees to a parent and its children. When an agent
asks for a grandchild, put the new task under the requester's parent and
return `parentAdjusted`. Do not reject the request. Keep board users
unrestricted. Record the originating task in a new server-set
`origin_issue_id` column. Keep `origin_run_id` as the originating run.

**Alternatives considered**

Reject grandchild requests with an error. We did not do this, because
agents then fail mid-task. Add a database constraint. We did not do
this, because existing deep trees must stay valid and nesting can return
later.

## What Changed

- Add `MAX_AGENT_TASK_HIERARCHY_DEPTH` (2) and the
`IssueParentAdjustment` type in `packages/shared`.
- Add `resolveNewTaskParent` and `planIssueParentChange` in
`server/src/services/issues.ts`. `create`, `createChild` and `update`
use the agent limit by default (`parentDepthPolicy: "flatten"`).
- The issue create, `/children` and PATCH routes pass `allow_nested` for
board users. For agents, the routes check authorization against the
parent that the server actually writes.
- The requester keeps its behavior when the server moves a task beside
it: `blockParentUntilDone` blocks the requester, and the new task
inherits the requester's workspace and privacy.
- The server never moves a task above a low-trust boundary root that
contains the requester.
- These subsystems keep any depth, because they find their work by
parent: watchdog reviews, monitor recovery, email-channel placement, and
routines that a person configured.
- An agent move of a task that has children skips only the parent change
and returns `reason: "has_children"`.
- Add `issues.origin_issue_id` (nullable, `on delete set null`, indexed)
in migration `0434`. Only the server sets it. The `createdFrom` detail
field, the `createdFromIssueId` filter and task-creation provenance read
it first.
- Chat prompts now let a chat agent create one task, a task with
children, or separate tasks. The conversation is never a parent.
- The runner `create_task` tool accepts an optional `parentTaskId`. A
chat agent can create a top-level task and then put subtasks under it.
The run must be able to read and change the parent. A conversation is
never a parent. The depth limit still applies. Project tools map the
field to `parentId` through the issue route. The protocol manifest,
semantic contracts and eval fixture are regenerated.
- Watchdog runs that have an active watchdog keep their requested parent
on all create paths, because their access is limited to the watched
subtree.
- Fix a bug that the test drive found: the chat (MCP) `create_task`
ignored the requested `status`, so a `backlog` task became `todo` and
started to run. It now uses the same rule as the native tool.
- Update `skills/paperclip`, `doc/SPEC-implementation.md`, and add the
plan `doc/plans/2026-11-05-two-level-task-hierarchy.md`.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/agent-task-hierarchy-depth.test.ts
src/__tests__/agent-task-hierarchy-depth-routes.test.ts`: 19 new tests
for service and route behavior, all pass.
- Related suites (64 files: issues service, thread interactions,
privacy, watchdogs, provenance, runner tool authority, decisions,
routines, project tools): 1208 tests pass. Two tests changed because of
the intended behavior and pass now. Two `email-channels.integration`
tests fail locally because the test cannot find a bundled skill file
from this worktree path. This change does not touch that code.
- `packages/db`: migration safety, snapshot drift and journal tests
pass.
- Typecheck passes for `server`, `packages/shared`, `packages/db`, `cli`
and `ui` (local `ui` errors come only from generated Storybook catalog
files that are absent).
- Local test drive on an isolated instance with real Claude agents: 29
of 29 use cases pass, including an agent on a child task (follow-ups
placed beside it, with the notice) and a chat that creates a top-level
task with three subtasks.
- I did not run the full `pnpm test:run` or `pnpm build` locally. CI
runs them.

## Risks

- Behavior change for agents: some follow-ups that were grandchildren
are now siblings. The parent of the requester is woken when all its
children finish, which now includes these tasks.
- The runner `create_task` input contract adds one optional field, so
the protocol manifest and the pack contract change. The tool output does
not change: it shows the actual `parentId`, and the activity log records
`parentAdjusted`.
- Migration `0434` adds a nullable column, a foreign key and an index.
It does not backfill rows.
- `IssueCreationSource.run` is now nullable.

## Model Used

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 de1143448b fix(queue): clear interaction receipts a run already delivered (#19376)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents ask people for input through thread cards: questions,
confirmations, plan approvals and connection requests
> - When a person resolves a card, Paperclip queues the response for the
agent. The task chat shows it above the composer as a read-only receipt,
for example "Answered: Questions"
> - A second wake can carry the same receipt. One example is a recovery
continuation that raced the response's own wake. The agent receives the
response from the first run, but the second wake stays deferred
> - The composer then shows a receipt that the agent already has. The
user cannot edit, discard or clear it. The same receipt also blocks the
agent's handback with `interaction_response_queued`
> - This pull request treats a receipt as pending only until a run that
carries the interaction has started
> - The benefit is that an answered card leaves the queue once the agent
has it, for every card kind

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists. A hands-on onboarding test on a staging cloud
workspace (Claude subscription path) found this bug.

**What happened?**
During onboarding, a queued item stayed above the task-chat composer. It
said "Answered: Questions", but the user had already answered the
questions. Later items also stayed after the interview answers and after
the user connected GitHub. The user could not trash, steer or edit them.

Evidence from the staging workspace (interactions, wake diagnostics and
run records for the onboarding task):
- The first questions card (no title, so its label is "Answered:
Questions") was answered at 17:37:48.
- Run `ba3bc7d6` (`issue.interaction.respond`) delivered that answer
from 17:37:48 to 17:38:27.
- A recovery wake (`issue.interaction_continuation_recovery`) for the
same card was requested at 17:37:48 too. It stayed deferred behind
`ba3bc7d6` and then ran again as `cacb095d` (17:38:33 to 17:39:17).
During that time the composer showed the stale "Answered: Questions"
receipt.
- The plan approval had the same pattern from 17:42:06 to 18:20 (fixed
at its source by #19332). The declined Slack connection receipt sat
behind that chain.

**Expected behavior**
A receipt leaves the composer queue as soon as a run has received it.
The agent can hand back the task after it has received the response.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. An agent asks a question card on a task.
2. A user answers it. The response wake starts a run that carries the
answer.
3. A second wake for the same card is deferred behind that run or a
later run.
4. `GET /api/issues/:id/queued-comments` returns the second wake's
receipt as an immutable entry until it runs.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/queued-interaction-response.ts`:
`readQueuedInteractionResponse` returns no receipt when a run for the
same issue has started with this interaction in its context and is
`running` or `succeeded`. A cancelled or failed run does not count, so
that response is still owed. `hasQueuedInteractionResponse` (the
handback guard) uses the same rule.
- `server/src/routes/issues.ts`: `findQueuedCommentWake` skips a
delivered receipt, so a later undelivered receipt can still show.
- `server/src/__tests__/issue-queued-comments-routes.test.ts`: red/green
tests for every card kind and outcome: answered questions, accepted and
rejected confirmation, accepted plan (checkbox) approval, connected and
declined connection. Each runs with a `succeeded` and with a `running`
delivering run. Controls check that an undelivered receipt still shows,
that a later undelivered receipt shows instead of a delivered one, and
that the handback guard ignores a delivered receipt.
- N-02 (hover shows raw JSON): `master` already shows only the one-line
summary in the label and hover (`queuedMessageLabel`). This PR does not
change the UI.

## Verification

Red, on `master` code with only the new tests added:

Green, with the fix:

```

      Tests  25 passed | 85 skipped (110)
```

Neighbouring suites, with the fix:
- `issue-queued-comments-routes.test.ts` (full file, on current
`master`): 110 passed.
- `question-response-delivery`, `queued-comment-consumption`,
`issue-thread-interaction-routes`, `satisfied-connection-intents`,
`issue-comment-reopen-routes`, `issue-execution-policy-routes` together
with the queued-comments file: 494 tests passed. One run hit an
embedded-Postgres `afterAll` cleanup timeout under 7-file parallel load.
The same file passed alone twice.
- `heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts -t "plan approval|accepted
interaction|answered question|answered interaction|onboarding first
task"`: 14 passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`: passes.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change only hides a receipt that a started run already
carries. An undelivered receipt keeps its current behavior.
- The redundant wake itself is not cancelled here. It still runs later
as a normal continuation, but it no longer holds the composer queue or
blocks handback. #19332 removes the main source of these duplicate
wakes.
- Each receipt read adds one indexed-by-company lookup on
`heartbeat_runs` for the issue.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, used in Claude Code
with tool use (shell, file edits, browser inspection of the staging
workspace API).

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 7440cfc9b1 fix(issues): accept queued Send while the previous run has not started (#19370)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A task chat queues a message while the agent is busy. The
queued-message bar shows a Send button when no turn is running.
> - Send calls `POST /issues/:id/queued-comments/interrupt` with no
target run.
> - The issue can hold an execution run that has not started yet
(`queued`) or that waits for a retry (`scheduled_retry`). The GET
response then shows a deferred queue with no target run, so the UI shows
Send.
> - The interrupt route refused that click with 409. The UI then showed
"Couldn't send. Message is still queued."
> - This pull request saves the click as interrupt intent in that state.
The queue is delivered when the previous run stops.
> - The benefit is that the button the UI offers now works, and the
message goes next.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
Cloud onboarding test, Codex subscription path (N-06): the tester
clicked Send in the onboarding task. The UI showed "Couldn't send.
Message is still queued."

**Expected behavior**
Send is accepted. The message stays in the queue and is delivered next,
when the previous run stops.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Have an issue whose execution run is `queued` (not started) or
`scheduled_retry`.
2. Post a message. It is deferred behind that run.
3. Click Send on the queued message.
4. The route returns 409: "This queue does not support interruption"
(paperclip_runner) or "The previous run has not stopped" (legacy
adapters).

**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at b68f69a801.

Root cause: `GET /queued-comments` resolves the target run from running
runs only, so the UI offers Send. `POST /queued-comments/interrupt`
locks `issue.executionRunId` at any status. It accepted only a terminal
run or no run. A queued or retry-waiting run fell between those two
rules.

Relation to other fixes: #19331 (declined connection receipt) changed
which wake the queue projects. It does not touch this check, and current
`master` still fails. The sibling N-07 problem (steering a queued
message on Codex) uses the `/steer` route. This PR does not change that
route. I found no shared cause.

Evidence limits: the tester's notes are the only evidence. The staging
company that I could read uses the Claude subscription path, so I could
not see the Codex run's status at the time of the click. The reproduced
state is the only server path that gives "Couldn't send" for a Send
click with no running turn. A slow-starting or retrying Codex run gives
that state.

## What Changed

- `server/src/routes/issues.ts`: the interrupt route no longer refuses a
Send when the issue's run is `queued` or `scheduled_retry`. For
paperclip_runner queues, a run that is not running is handled like a
stopped run. The legacy "previous run has not stopped" 409 is removed.
The route saves `queuedCommentInterrupt` intent, does not cancel the
not-yet-started run, and returns the queue in the `deferred` state. The
UI already shows "Messages are still queued. They will send when the
task is ready." for that response.
- `server/src/__tests__/issue-queued-comments-routes.test.ts`: new route
test for native and legacy queues, with `queued` and `scheduled_retry`
runs. It checks that GET offers Send, that the POST is accepted without
a run cancel, that the intent is saved, and that the queue is delivered
to one successor run after the previous run stops.

## Verification

Red, on `master` (new test, before the fix):

```
pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/issue-queued-comments-routes.test.ts -t "accepts Send while"
     × accepts Send while the previous native run is queued and delivers it once that run stops
     × accepts Send while the previous native run is scheduled_retry and delivers it once that run stops
     × accepts Send while the previous legacy run is queued and delivers it once that run stops
     × accepts Send while the previous legacy run is scheduled_retry and delivers it once that run stops
AssertionError: {"error":"This queue does not support interruption"}: expected 409 to be 200
AssertionError: {"error":"The previous run has not stopped"}: expected 409 to be 200
      Tests  4 failed | 90 skipped (94)
```

Green, after the fix (same command):

```
 Test Files  1 passed (1)
      Tests  4 passed | 90 skipped (94)
```

Neighbouring suites:

- `server/src/__tests__/issue-queued-comments-routes.test.ts` (complete
file): 94/94 passed.
- `server/src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts`,
`server/src/services/issue-queued-comment-queue.test.ts`,
`ui/src/components/task-chat/TaskChatQueuedMessages.test.tsx`: passed.
- When I ran the two embedded-Postgres route files in one Vitest
process, every test passed. Then the queued-comment file's `afterAll`
database cleanup timed out after 30 s, which is a local resource limit.
The file passes when it runs alone.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`: passed.
- I made no UI changes, so I did not run `pnpm check:token-gates`.

## Risks

- Low risk. Send was refused only for `queued` and `scheduled_retry`
runs. Now that click is saved and the run is not cancelled. A running
turn is unchanged: paperclip_runner still steers it, and legacy still
interrupts it.
- When a run waits for a retry, a saved Send waits for that retry to
finish. The route does not skip the retry. This matches how the queue
already works for messages without a click.

## Model Used

tool use (shell, file edits, browser for read-only staging evidence).

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 002455ea06 fix(issues): finish a reassignment whose native stop settles after the request (#19354)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A user can stop or interrupt a running native task and then send a
message to give new direction
> - When the stopped run left a workspace hold, the dispatch gate
withholds the follow-up run until recovery saves the work
> - The gate must save the user's message on its receipt so that the
deferred-receipt worker continues it after recovery
> - Two conditions made the gate skip the message instead of saving it,
so the task stayed in progress with "Saved work recovered. Send a
message to continue." although the user already sent one
> - This pull request saves the message in both conditions
> - The benefit is that the message the user already sent continues
once, automatically, after recovery

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

After a user stopped or interrupted a native task with an isolated
sandbox workspace and sent a message, the follow-up run was cancelled
with `execution_reconciliation_required`. Its error said "Saved work
recovered. Send a message to continue." Nothing re-woke the task. In the
interrupt case, a periodic sweep started a run about four minutes later.
In the case where the follow-up first waited for the stopped run's
workspace save (`workspace_busy`), each later retry parked on the same
resolved recovery action, and the task did not continue.

**Expected behavior**
When the recovery that the follow-up waited on resolves, the message
that the user already sent continues once, automatically. The product
does not ask for a second message.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run a native task in a managed sandbox with an isolated workspace.
2. Stop the run (or send a comment with interrupt), then send a message
while the stop and workspace save are still settling.
3. Wait for the workspace recovery to resolve.
4. See that the follow-up run is cancelled with
`execution_reconciliation_required` and that no run continues the
message.

**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` before this change.

**Root cause**
`deferUnstartedUserComment` (run dispatch) refused to save the withheld
message in two cases:
1. It compared the message time with the source run's `finishedAt`. A
native run finishes only after its provider stop and workspace save
settle, which takes seconds. A message written after the Stop request
but before that settlement was treated as input written before the Stop.
The receipt was marked `skipped`.
2. It required the run's own receipt to be user-owned. A workspace-busy
retry or an admission retry carries the user's message under a
system-owned receipt, so the message was dropped with the retry.

## What Changed

- Add `userStopBoundaryAt(run)` in `run-cancellation.ts`. For a run
cancelled by a user Stop or interrupt, it returns the recorded Stop
request time (`cancellation.recordedAt`) when that is earlier than
`finishedAt`. For all other runs it returns `finishedAt`.
- Use this boundary in the dispatch gate's message deferral, in native
explicit-continuation admission, and in the remote-Stop continuation
check, so the three places agree on "message written after the Stop".
- When the withheld run is a system-owned retry, walk a bounded chain
(max 8) of retries that did not reach the provider (`workspace_busy`
with `providerWorkStarted: false`, or a verified pre-dispatch
`execution_reconciliation_required`) to the originating user receipt.
Save the message on that receipt with the user's original wake context.
Mark the retry's system receipt `skipped`.
- Update the "input written before the Stop" test so that the Stop
request, and not only the settlement, comes after the message.

## Verification

- New regressions in `server/src/services/workspace-recovery.test.ts`
(`continues a message ... without a second message, after recovery
already resolved`): a direct follow-up and a workspace-busy retry. Each
runs recovery to completion first, then lets the gate withhold the
follow-up, then runs only the deferred-receipt worker. Each asserts that
exactly one successor run is queued with the user's message and the
user's authority, and that no provider work starts.
- Red before the fix: both tests fail because the receipt is `skipped`
instead of `deferred_issue_execution`. Green after the fix.
- `npx vitest run src/services/workspace-recovery.test.ts` (384 passed).
- `npx vitest run src/services/explicit-native-continuation.test.ts
src/modules/run-dispatch src/services/execution-continuation.test.ts
src/services/run-cancellation.test.ts` (581 passed).
- 19 more heartbeat, retry, queued-comment, and native recovery suites
(1272 passed). One failure, `heartbeat-process-recovery > redacts opaque
environment-bound credentials from Sentry diagnostics: result`, also
fails on unchanged `master` and is not related.

## Risks

- A message written after the Stop request but before the stopped run
settled now continues. The stopping run cannot consume new input after
its Stop request, and admission still removes comments that a run
already delivered (`undeliveredLegacyUserCommentIds`). All admission
gates (holds, stop proofs, approvals, budget) still apply.
- Only user Stops and interrupts move the boundary. Other cancellations
keep `finishedAt`.
- The retry walk is bounded, stays in one company, agent, and issue, and
accepts only retries without provider work. It revives a user receipt
only from `cancelled` or `skipped`, so a second retry cannot save the
same receipt twice.
- Not in scope: a run that fails during native preparation with no user
message (for example `runner_state_identity_mismatch:
prior_owner_terminal_state_indeterminate;
retirement_refused=unexpected_root_entry` on a system wake). After its
recovery resolves, the task still waits for a user message. That is a
separate root cause in the native session executor's prior-owner
retirement proof.

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 00c7738513 fix(task-chat): keep messages sendable after a declined connection request (#19331)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The task chat composer shows a queue of saved input that waits for
the agent's next turn
> - When a person declines a connection request (for example Slack), the
server queues a read-only receipt so the agent learns the outcome
> - The composer showed that receipt with its raw JSON receipt in hover
text, and the receipt hid the person's next message
> - The next message could not be edited, discarded, or sent, so the
chat looked stuck after a simple "Decline"
> - This pull request shows a readable status for receipts and keeps the
person's own later messages visible and actionable
> - The benefit is that declining a connection resolves cleanly and the
conversation continues

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
During an onboarding test on staging, a person declined the agent's
"Connect Slack" request. A queued steering item then stayed above the
composer. It could not be edited. Its hover text showed raw JSON.
Sending the next message produced an error.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Give a task to a Paperclip runner agent whose run is active or waits
on a busy workspace.
2. Let the agent request a connection, then decline it.
3. See the queued item "Rejected: Connect Slack". Hover it: the title is
the full JSON receipt.
4. Send another message. The message never appears in the queue. Its row
controls stay disabled. Send or Interrupt on the receipt queue returns
`409 This queue does not support interruption`.

**Expected behavior**
A declined connection request resolves cleanly. It shows a readable
status. The next message can be sent.

**Evidence (staging wake diagnostics for the test task)**
- 17:52:09: the decline wake for the Slack request. It stayed deferred,
was never claimed, and was skipped at 18:21.
- 17:52:10: a later retry wake for the plan-approval continuation.
- `GET /issues/:id/queued-comments` projects the oldest matching wake.
From 17:52 to 18:21 the composer showed the Slack receipt.

Refs: related to the separate plan-approval queued-message fix, which
changes the recovery sweep. This PR only touches the queue projection
and the receipt label.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/queued-interaction-response.ts`: add
`queuedInteractionSummary()`. A receipt now has one readable line, for
example `Declined: Slack connection`, `Connected: GitHub connection`, or
`Accepted: Build the app`. The entry `source.summary` carries it. The
steering body for the agent still includes the typed JSON receipt.
- `server/src/routes/issues.ts` (`findQueuedCommentWake`): a queued
user-message wake now takes precedence over a receipt wake. A receipt
shows only when it is the only queued input. The receipt wake itself is
unchanged and is still delivered to the agent.
- `server/src/modules/wake-queue/adapters/postgres.ts`
(`findExistingDeferredWake`): skip interaction-receipt wakes when a new
message picks the deferred wake it merges into. Before, the receipt was
the oldest deferred wake, the merge was skipped, and every later message
started its own wake. Only the first message then appeared in the queue.
Receipts still never absorb user input.
- `packages/shared/src/types/issue.ts`: add the optional `summary` field
to `IssueQueuedCommentEntry.source`.
- `ui/src/components/task-chat/TaskChatQueuedMessages.tsx`: add
`queuedMessageLabel()`. The row text, the hover title, and all
aria-labels use the summary. They never use the raw steering body.

## Verification

Red/green tests were written first and run against the unchanged code.

New tests:
- `server/src/__tests__/issue-queued-comments-routes.test.ts`
- `shows a declined connection receipt as a readable status, not its
JSON`
- `keeps the next message visible and actionable after a declined
connection (running run | stopped run)`: declines Slack, posts the next
message, and asserts that the queue lists that message with
`canEdit`/`canDiscard`, that the discard works, and that the receipt
wake is still pending for the agent.
- `queues every later message together after a declined connection
(legacy run | stopped run)`: two messages after a decline both appear in
one editable queue, and the receipt wake keeps no message ids.
- `ui/src/components/task-chat/TaskChatQueuedMessages.test.tsx`
- `shows a declined connection request as readable text, never its raw
JSON receipt (BUG-08)`

**Red (unchanged code):**
```
server: × shows a declined connection receipt as a readable status, not its JSON
        AssertionError: expected { kind: 'interaction', …(3) } to match object { …, summary: 'Declined: Slack connection' }
server: × keeps the next message visible and actionable after a declined connection (running run)
server: × keeps the next message visible and actionable after a declined connection (stopped run)
        AssertionError: ["Declined: Slack connection"]: expected undefined to match object { canEdit: true, canDiscard: true }
        (the queue lists only the receipt; the new message is missing)
        Tests  3 failed | 85 skipped (88)
ui:     × shows a declined connection request as readable text, never its raw JSON receipt (BUG-08)
        AssertionError: expected 'Reorder queued message: Rejected: Con…' not to contain '{'
        Tests  1 failed | 23 skipped (24)
```
An exploratory probe on the unchanged code also showed the send error on
this path: `POST /queued-comments/interrupt` on the receipt queue with a
running native run returns `409 {"error":"This queue does not support
interruption"}`. The exact UI text that the tester saw was not
available.

Second commit (review follow-up), unchanged `findExistingDeferredWake`:
```
server: × queues every later message together after a declined connection (legacy run)
        AssertionError: expected [ Array(1) ] to deeply equal [ …(2) ]
        Tests  1 failed | 1 passed | 88 skipped (90)
```
With the change: `Tests  2 passed | 88 skipped (90)`.

**Green (with this change):**
```
pnpm --filter server exec vitest run src/__tests__/issue-queued-comments-routes.test.ts
  Test Files  1 passed (1)   Tests  90 passed (90)
server: heartbeat-comment-wake-batching + src/modules/wake-queue
  Test Files  11 passed      Tests  322 passed (322)
server: retry-scheduling, wake-diagnostics, question-response-delivery, comment-wake-batching, dot-runner, responsible-user-invariant, stale-queue-invalidation, queued-comments routes
  Test Files  8 passed       Tests  357 passed (357)
pnpm --filter ui exec vitest run src/components/task-chat/TaskChatQueuedMessages.test.tsx src/lib/issue-queued-comment-queue.test.ts
  Test Files  2 passed (2)   Tests  31 passed (31)
server: question-response-delivery, connection-intents-service, satisfied-connection-intents
  Test Files  3 passed       Tests  199 passed (199)
```
A first full run of the route file hit a 30s `beforeAll` timeout while
embedded Postgres started on a loaded machine. One new stopped-run case
was also flaky, because the agent could dispatch the new message before
the assertion. I fixed the flake: the test now occupies the agent on
another task (`maxConcurrentRuns: 1`), which is the existing pattern in
this file. I confirmed again that this test fails without the route fix.

Typecheck: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck`, `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/server typecheck`, and `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui
typecheck` pass. `pnpm check:token-gates`: all gates clean. I did not
run the full `pnpm test:run` or `pnpm build` locally. CI runs them.

## Risks

- Behavior change: when a receipt and a user message wait at the same
time, the composer now shows the message queue. The receipt is no longer
shown there until it is the only queued input. The receipt wake and its
delivery do not change. The resolved card in the thread still shows the
outcome.
- The first line of the steering body for connection receipts changes
from `Rejected: Connect Slack` to `Declined: Slack connection`. The JSON
receipt for the agent does not change.
- Out of scope (unchanged on master, reproduced without any receipt):
while a native run is running, each new message gets its own queued run,
and the queue shows only the first one. Messages that join a
`scheduled_retry` run's context also do not appear in the queue
projection.
- Overlap: the plan-approval queued-message fix (BUG-03) changes the
recovery sweep, not this code. Both fixes touch the same symptom area.
They do not edit the same functions.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 d807887534 fix(ui): use one status glyph mapping for every task view (#19329)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Task status is the main signal on every task surface: sidebar rows,
the task header, the status menu, lists, the inbox, pills and chat
cards.
> - One task state rendered different status icons in different views. A
blocked task that waits on an active sub-task showed the blue "in queue"
glyph in the task header. The status menu, the chat chip and the sidebar
rows showed the red "Blocked" glyph for the same task.
> - The cause: each view passed its own subset of the presentation
fields to `StatusIcon`. Many views dropped `blockerAttention` and some
dropped `externalConversationState`. The status menu rendered its
current row from the bare status. The summaries API did not return
`blockerAttention`, so the recent-task sidebar could not know the state.
> - This pull request puts the state-to-glyph/label mapping in one
resolver and makes every task view pass all of its fields.
> - The benefit is that the same state uses the same icon and label
everywhere.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue. Found in a hands-on onboarding test on a staging cloud
workspace.

**What happened?**

The sidebar and the task pane/status menu showed different status icons
for the same state. On the test task (blocked, waiting on an active
sub-task), the task header and the status button showed the blue "in
queue" glyph. The selected "Blocked" row in the status menu showed the
red blocked glyph. The coordinator sidebar "Recents" and project rows
also showed the red blocked glyph, and the chat "Subtask created" chip
showed a red "Blocked" chip.

**Expected behavior**

The same underlying state uses the same icon and label everywhere.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create a task with a sub-task. Block the parent on the sub-task, and
let the sub-task's agent run (the parent is "blocked, covered").
2. Open the parent task. The header shows the blue "in queue" glyph.
3. Open the status menu. The current "Blocked" row shows the red glyph.
4. With the coordinator sidebar on, look at the task in Recents or in
its expanded project. It shows the red glyph.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`master` at 03eb49053f.

## What Changed

- Add `ui/src/lib/task-status-presentation.ts`.
`resolveTaskStatusPresentation()` is the one mapping from `status`,
`displayStatus`, `externalConversationState` and `blockerAttention` to
glyph, label and accessible copy. `taskStatusIconProps()` picks all four
fields from a task record.
- `StatusIcon` and `IssueStatusBadge` use the resolver. The status menu
draws the current row with the trigger's presentation (in queue, idle,
monitoring).
- `IssueStatusBadge` now accepts `blockerAttention`.
`taskStatusVar.in_queue` maps to the existing in-progress chip hue, the
same as the existing `--status-task-icon-in_queue` icon token.
- Task call sites spread `taskStatusIconProps(task)`: coordinator
sidebar recents and project rows, classic recent tasks, lists, rows,
columns, inbox, blocked inbox, my issues, dashboard, properties,
relation pills, search, sibling navigation, chat chips, case summaries,
status cards and user profile. Step/check statuses in protocol cards
stay unchanged because they are not task statuses.
- `GET /api/companies/:companyId/issues/summaries` returns
`blockerAttention` for blocked rows (at most five IDs, through the
existing `listBlockerAttention` service). `IssueSummary` gets the
optional field.
- Recent-task snapshots store and refresh `blockerAttention`. Sidebar
project rows request the `rows` projection, which includes blocker state
(the `index` projection skips it).
- Storybook: the Foundations/Status Language story gets a "Same state,
every view" section.

## Verification

Red on `master` (tests written first, then run against the unchanged
code):

      Tests  37 passed (37)
 Test Files  1 passed (1)        # server summaries route
      Tests  15 passed (15)
```

Neighbouring and broader checks:

- `StatusIcon`, `StatusBadge`, `StatusGlyph`, picker, sidebar and
recent-task suites: 73/73 pass.
- Full UI Vitest run: 11106 pass, 1 skipped. Three `IssuesList.test.tsx`
tests timed out at 5 s under full-suite load. The same file passes 73/73
when run alone.
- `tsc --noEmit` for `ui` and `server`: no errors in changed files.
Remaining errors are pre-existing (unbuilt
`@paperclipai/paperclip-runner`, generated Storybook catalog).
- `pnpm check:token-gates`: all gates clean.

|

Before: the row glyph is blue, but the chip and the current menu row are
red. After: the row glyph, the chip and the current menu row are all the
blue "in queue" glyph.

Review follow-up (commits 1d3a1a0a9e, d5c798ec53): blocker state on
summaries, search and case responses is glyph-only (state, reason,
counts). Blocker titles and IDs are never returned; a sampled identifier
stays only when the actor can read that blocker. Producer-level tests
failed before the follow-up and pass after it
(\`task-created-items.test.tsx\`,
\`CoordinatorTaskCommitment.test.tsx\`,
\`company-search-service.test.ts\`, \`cases-routes.test.ts\`,
private-blocker case in \`issue-summaries-routes.test.ts\`). Before
merge, the branch was test-merged locally with current \`master\`:
typecheck clean, 1095 UI and 80 server tests in the affected suites
pass.

## Risks

- Low risk. Presentation only. Status mutations still use the canonical
`status`.
- The summaries endpoint now runs the blocker-attention query for
blocked rows. The endpoint accepts at most five IDs and runs the query
only when a row is blocked.
- Sidebar project rows use the `rows` projection instead of `index`.
This adds the blocker and review attention reads for at most 12 rows,
and only when a person expands a project.
- `IssueStatusBadge` shows the blue "in queue" chip for covered-blocked
tasks where callers pass `blockerAttention`. The label stays "Blocked"
and the full reason is in the tooltip.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`, Anthropic), through Claude Code
with tool use (shell, file edits, browser). Default context window.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 5498db1072 fix(interactions): relay a verified reply to a self-requested human-only confirmation (#19243)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents ask users to approve proposals and plans with confirmation
cards, and users often answer in the conversation
> - `resolve-from-comment` lets the responding agent record that
verified reply on the card
> - Native agents often create their own proposal or plan confirmation
as `human_only`, because the `request_human_input` schema offers only
that value
> - `resolve-from-comment` then refuses with `interaction_human_only`,
and the plan and onboarding gates keep the task in `in_review` or
`blocked`, although the user explicitly approved
> - This pull request adds one narrow relay for that case and keeps
every other human-only gate on its card
> - The benefit is that an explicit conversational approval works again,
and governed, company-capped and quality-review approvals keep their
existing controls

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19073

**What happened?**
TestOps launch https://paperclip.testops.cloud/launch/2694 (GitHub run
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41915965118)
failed three Product regression cases for the same reason:
`continuation/revision-preserves-approval`,
`first-task/clarify-propose-accept` and `first-task/revise-accept`. In
each case the agent created a `request_confirmation` with
`resolverPolicy: human_only` (`effectiveResolverPolicySource:
requested`). The user replied "I approve…" or "Yes, I accept that
proposal". The agent's `resolve-from-comment` call returned 403
`interaction_human_only`. The task stayed `in_review` (plan gate) or
became `blocked` (onboarding decision gate).

**Expected behavior**
When the agent itself asked for a human-only answer, the verified latest
reply of the user it serves is that human answer. The agent can record
it. Company-capped, governed-action, issue-review and quality-review
gates still require the human to use the card.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. A native agent calls `request_human_input` with `interactionKind:
confirmation` and `resolverPolicy: human_only`.
2. The conversation user posts an explicit approval comment.
3. The agent calls `POST
/api/issues/{id}/interactions/{interactionId}/resolve-from-comment`.
Before this change it gets 403.

## What Changed

- `issue-thread-interaction-resolution.ts`: the agent actor gets an
optional `relayedHumanUserId`. A human-only decision is allowed as
`allow_relayed_human` only when all of these are true:
- the stored policy is `human_only`, its source is `requested` and its
provenance is `explicit`
  - the resolving agent created the card (`createdByAgentId` matches)
  - no governed action applies
  - no additional restriction (issue review) applies
  - any named addressee user is the relayed user

Company caps, the `governed_action` source and legacy rows with an
unknown source are still denied.
- `confirmation-comment-resolution.ts`: the service sets
`relayedHumanUserId` only after its existing comment checks pass:
user-authored, not agent-attributed, posted after the card, the latest
user message, the same conversation session. It also requires that the
author is the card's addressee, the conversation user or the run's
responsible user, that the card is not a quality review, and that the
company's current cap for the kind is not `human_only` (a tied cap keeps
the source `requested`). The same actor goes into the locked
accept/reject re-check. The activity entry adds `resolverPolicy:
"human_only"` and `resolution: "relayed_human_decision"`.
- `routes/issues.ts`: the route pre-check passes the candidate comment
author. The service still re-verifies everything under its locks.
- `issue-thread-interactions.ts`: carries the relay field into the
service's own audience re-check.
- Docs: the first-task skill and `api-reference.md` describe the narrow
relay. The guidance still says not to add `human_only` to ordinary
proposals.

## Verification

- `server/src/__tests__/confirmation-comment-resolution.test.ts`
(embedded Postgres): 72 pass.
- Green: relay through a conversation user and through a run's
responsible user. The card is `accepted`, `resolvedByAgentId` and
`resolvedByRunId` are set, `resolvedByUserId` stays null, and the audit
records `relayed_human_decision`.
- Negative controls, each with the card still pending and no audit:
agent-authored comment, earlier comment, wrong user, unbound issue/run,
`company_cap` source, `governed_action` source, `qualityReview`,
`toolAction`, `connectionAuthorization`, issue-review `human_only`
restriction, another addressed user, human-created card, another agent's
card, inherited company default, and a real capped card created through
`svc.create` with a tied cap. The tied-cap test fails as expected when
the cap is removed.
- Existing negative controls are unchanged, including `human_only`
without a bound user and the "rechecks narrowed permissions" retry.
- Red check: with the three service files reverted to `master`, the two
new green tests fail and the negative controls pass.
- `server/src/services/issue-thread-interaction-resolution.test.ts`: 21
pass, including the pure evaluator relay rules.
-
`server/src/services/native-runtime/confirmation-comment-api.integration.test.ts`:
11 pass. The real route accepts the relayed reply and refuses another
user's comment with 403.
- Also pass: `issue-thread-interaction-routes`,
`onboarding-first-task-admission`, `paperclip-runner-tool-authority`,
`runner-api`, `onboarding-first-task-assets` and
`company-skills-service` (2,474 tests in total).
- Changed files typecheck cleanly.
- Live verification: Product regression single-case runs of the three
cases are pending after merge.

## Risks

- This touches an approval gate. The relay is limited to cards whose
creator chose `human_only`. All existing reply-evidence checks still
apply, plus a bound-user requirement. Company caps, governed actions,
quality reviews, issue-review restrictions and named addressees still
deny the relay.
- Attribution does not change: the resolver is still the agent and run.
The human's comment is kept as `result.commentId` and in the audit.
- Legacy rows with a null policy source are not relayed.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), via Claude Code with tool use and
code execution.

19c710fe93 fix(issues): record an interrupt comment as the user's Stop (#19149)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A board user can interrupt a running agent with a comment
(`interrupt: true`) to redirect the work
> - An interrupt is a Stop plus a message, but it did not record the
user's stop identity the way the Stop control does
> - The release path therefore treated an interrupted native run as a
failed run: it blocked the task and took the finalization lease from the
runner that was still settling
> - Workspace preservation then stopped the sandbox under that live
runner, so the runner reconnected for about 6 minutes and the stop could
not be verified afterward
> - The redirect message stayed saved, but it waited on workspace repair
that could not finish
> - This pull request records the board user's stop identity on
interrupts, the same as the Stop control and terminalization stops
> - The benefit is that an interrupt now settles like a Stop and the
redirect can continue

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19122 (the Stop-then-redirect fix for the dispatch gate; this PR
covers the interrupt-comment path).

**What happened?**
A board user posted a comment with `interrupt: true` on a task with a
running native run (Daytona sandbox). The run was cancelled with
`operator_interrupted` and the native cancel was acknowledged. Within a
second, the task went to `blocked` and a
`native_continuation_requires_reconciliation` hold was created. The
runner transport then logged `state=reconnecting` for about 6 minutes,
and the run ended with `runner_process_termination_unconfirmed: ...
Daytona sandbox lease ... is no longer active`. Workspace recovery
started about 10–17 minutes later and failed with
`agent_stop_unconfirmed` / `provider_unavailable`. The redirect comment
stayed saved as a deferred wake waiting on `workspace_repair_required`.
No follow-up run started.

**Expected behavior**
An interrupt behaves like Stop followed by a message. The stopped runner
settles normally. The task is not blocked as a failure. The saved
message continues once the previous execution has stopped.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a native run on a remote sandbox.
2. Post a board comment with `interrupt: true`.
3. Observe the task become `blocked` with a
`native-continuation:<runId>` hold, and the run's finalization row
rewritten to `terminal_failure` with no lease owner while the executor
is still settling.
4. Observe workspace preservation stop the sandbox, the runner transport
reconnect until its grace ends, and recovery fail to confirm the stop.

**Root cause**
`recordNativeTerminalRecoveryIfNeeded`
(`server/src/modules/wake-queue/adapters/postgres.ts`) skips intentional
stops through `isAcknowledgedNativeStop`. That check requires
`resultJson.cancelledByActorType === "user"` and `cancelledByUserId`.
The Stop control and terminalization stops record these fields.
`operatorInterruptCancelOptions` (`server/src/routes/issues.ts`)
recorded only `interruptedByActorType` / `interruptedByActorId`. So an
acknowledged interrupt took the failure branch. That branch blocks the
task and sets `nativeRunFinalizations` to `terminal_failure` with
`leaseOwner: null`. Cancelled-workspace preservation then saw a terminal
row with no owner and stopped the sandbox while the runner was still
settling.

**Paperclip version or commit**
Seen on staging at 69dea878c0. The touched
code is unchanged on current `master`.

**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Not adapter-specific (core bug). Seen with the Paperclip runner adapter
on a Daytona sandbox.

## What Changed

- `operatorInterruptCancelOptions` now records `cancelledByActorType:
"user"` and `cancelledByUserId` for a board user, in addition to the
existing interrupt fields. All three interrupt call sites (comment POST,
issue PATCH, queued-comment interrupt) use it.
- Route regression in `issue-update-comment-wakeup-routes.test.ts`: an
`interrupt: true` comment on a running native run sends these fields,
and the route's actual fields satisfy `isAcknowledgedNativeStop` with an
acknowledged native stop receipt.
- Release-path regression in `wake-queue/adapters/postgres.test.ts`: an
acknowledged interrupt Stop, while the executor still owns finalization,
releases the task without blocking it, creates no recovery hold, keeps
the finalization lease owner, and keeps the saved redirect deferred.

## Verification

- Red before the fix:
- The route test failed because `cancelRun` received no
`cancelledByActorType` / `cancelledByUserId`.
- The release-path test failed with the old interrupt fields: the task
was blocked, a hold was created, and the finalization owner was cleared.
- Green after the fix:
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/issue-update-comment-wakeup-routes.test.ts
src/modules/wake-queue`
- Related suites: `acknowledged-native-stop`,
`issue-queued-comments-routes`, `issue-comment-reopen-routes`,
`issue-execution-policy-routes`, `explicit-native-continuation`,
`heartbeat-process-recovery`.
- The staging incident was read through the read-only run, event, log,
recovery-action and wake diagnostics APIs.
- Not done: a live staging reproduction at the fixed revision.
Deployment is out of scope.

## Risks

- An interrupt now counts as the user's Stop everywhere the Stop control
does. This includes case-handoff supersession in `cancelRun`: an
interrupt supersedes a pending case handoff, like Stop.
- Only board users get the stop identity. Agent actors cannot use
`interrupt: true` (the route returns 403).
- Runs interrupted before this change keep their old fields. They are
not migrated.
- Not changed here, and suitable for follow-ups:
- `recordNativeTerminalRecoveryIfNeeded` can still clear a live
finalization `leaseOwner` for other failed native runs.
- The runner PRP ingress reconnect loop
(`server/src/realtime/runner-prp-outbound.ts`) does not stop early when
the sandbox lease is closed.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, in Claude Code with
tool use (shell, file edits, subagent code tracing, browser for
read-only staging diagnostics).

Devin FoleyandPaperclip edb9d29942 fix(recovery): preserve Retry authority and reopen cross-task cases (#18997)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Tasks keep execution identity and saved workspace files separate
from control-plane updates.
> - A scanner can have permission to reopen a case while its run cannot
restore that case's files.
> - Retry can also follow a preparation failure that has no
recovery-action record.
> - Both paths can accept valid work but leave the target unable to run.
> - This change restores files under the target executor and saves
admitted Retry authority on the canonical receipt.
> - Existing workspace, user, source and successor checks still apply.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

An authorized agent updates another closed task. The route tries to
restore the target workspace under the caller's run identity and returns
`403 Task workspace run identity is unavailable`.

A separate failure occurs when a normal board Retry follows a
pre-provider preparation failure. Admission has no recovery-action row
on which to save continuation authority. Dispatch then fails with
`continuation_user_authorization_missing`.

**Expected behavior**

Accept the authorized task update. Restore its terminal workspace when
the target's admitted executor starts. An admitted Retry must retain its
exact dispatch authority even when the predecessor has no
recovery-action record.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Complete a task with an isolated workspace. From a different running
task, use an authorized comment or PATCH with `resume: true` on that
closed task.
2. Separately, fail native preparation before provider work starts, with
no recovery-action row. Submit board Retry, admit its successor, and
build the execution continuation.
3. Before this change, the first path returns 403 and the second rejects
its admitted authority.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced against `e968131efa7e63d321f3bcca8d47a62513c2efb4`. Rebased
onto `afbc5a885b5`.

**Deployment mode**

Server-managed native task execution. Tests use real PostgreSQL and
temporary workspace files.

Related PRs: #16927 covers terminal workspace races. #17916 retains
exact native export sources. Neither covers these route and Retry
receipt failures. A GitHub search found no duplicate. ROADMAP.md was
checked; this is a recovery bug fix.

## What Changed

- Defer workspace restoration only for authorized cross-task comments
and updates from a live run. Checkout keeps its existing workspace
identity checks.
- Restore the target's selected terminal workspace under its own
admitted run. Preserve its saved files and existing source checks. Leave
manually archived workspaces unchanged.
- Store server-created continuation authority on the canonical admitted
Retry receipt when no source recovery-action record exists. Existing
action records remain authoritative. Read the fallback only after
matching the company, task, agent, user, source, generation and
successor.
- Add route and PostgreSQL regression tests. Document both paths.

## Verification

- Red: both cross-task route tests returned the observed 403 before the
route fix.
- Red: the target executor could not reuse its archived terminal
workspace before the restoration fix.
- Red: an admitted preparation Retry with no recovery-action row failed
with `continuation_user_authorization_missing` before the receipt fix.
- Green: 419 recovery and continuation tests pass, plus 183 focused
route, environment and Retry tests. The assembled heartbeat test starts
the agent in the same terminal worktree and verifies both its unpushed
commit and uncommitted file bytes. It fails before the restoration fix.
- Negative cases reject wrong Retry runs, users, source runs,
generations, unadmitted receipts and missing authority. The original
failed run stays unchanged. Workspace tests verify saved file bytes.
- Full `pnpm build`, `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm check:module-boundaries`
and `git diff --check` pass.
- The full suite found an existing assembled chat authority regression:
clearing a recovery-action record could be bypassed by the new fallback.
The fix now writes the fallback only when that source has no action
record. That assembled regression passes with the original test
unchanged.
- Full `pnpm test:run` is running again. Its first attempt also hit an
unrelated ancestor skill-root lookup for a missing Slack skill. The
rerun uses a temporary untracked link to the repository's own bundled
skills. This link is excluded from the PR. Full-suite completion and
hosted CI are pending.
- Hosted CI has multiple runner interruptions. E2e shard 1/8, server
shards 3/12, 8/12 and 12/12, and workspaces-a shard 1/2 show runner
shutdown signals. E2e shard 5/8 and server shards 1/12 and 2/12 have
GitHub annotations reporting lost runner communication; their logs
return 404. The `ci / verify` assertion failed because the general-test
matrix was cancelled. GitHub rejected job and failed-workflow reruns
while this workflow is still running. Rerun the interrupted checks after
it settles.
- Greptile reviewed exact head
`a1e3929aedb1ee3bfcd001f4ebb1510106bf4070` at 2026-11-04 17:37 UTC: 5/5,
with no new blocking findings and no unresolved review threads.

## Risks

- A deferred workspace restore can still fail at target admission. The
run keeps the existing workspace failure path; this change does not
bypass file recovery or provider stop checks.
- Retry receipts now store server-created authority. Existing action
receipts remain valid. No schema migration is required.
- Local regression tests establish the software behavior. The new
revision has not been deployed to a hosted instance.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` through the Codex harness in T3 Code, with xhigh
reasoning, repository inspection, tool use and code execution. The
context-window size is not exposed by the runtime.

DottaandPaperclip 683fa4725e fix(evals): refresh native runtime and pin reviewed catalog repairs (#18780)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets people inspect and manage their agents’ work.
> - The timeline must report canonical ownership history, and OpenCode
tool failures need bounded diagnostics.
> - The measured candidate also had independently reproduced
question-navigation and oracle defects.
> - This change promotes the reviewed production fixes and pins one
immutable, qualified source composition.
> - Original queries, model, counts, clocks, privacy controls and
qualification holds remain intact.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18775, #18777, #18779, #18711, #18713, #18718, #18699, #18798,
#18799.

**What happened?** The measured candidate predates merged native-runtime
fixes and contains fixture defects. The timeline omitted recorded
reassignment/removal history. Finish-input errors lacked a closed
correlation and shape witness.

**Expected behavior:** project recorded ownership transitions without
inventing facts, distinguish successful native execution from failed
verification steps, and retain content-free finish diagnostics.

**Steps to reproduce:** repeat an unchanged assignee while editing
another field; then reassign or unassign it. Only recorded transitions
should appear. Invalid OpenCode finish input should produce a correlated
rejection witness without values or schema text.

Related #18699 adds gated company OTLP diagnostics. This change uses the
existing local callback; it adds no exporter or capture policy.

## What Changed

- Promote canonical timeline creation, reassignment and removal
projection from #18777. Initial child ownership requires a recorded
fresh-creation receipt; delegation requires a readable recorded parent.
Unknown legacy facts fail closed. User actors/owners require active
company membership; agent actors/targets must exist in that company.
Spans, events and edges share that admission filter. Remove the
introduced all-history absence query and use guarded indexed UUID
lookups.
- Add the shared/OpenAPI `unassigned` event kind, preserving newer main
contracts and issue-route/service code through reviewed semantic joins.
Existing UI consumers remain generic; no new visual marker is claimed.
- Add bounded OpenCode finish diagnostics: schema digest, hashed call
identity, closed shape enums and validation category. A throwing sink
does not change admission or cancellation.
- Pin immutable candidate `fd5e3b1e5a379524c0d1651ed8273e75ffd86541`,
composed from combined #18777 source
`b734393eff0d7ef85b7ad8abd556d2a66ca3a4e6` plus the reviewed MCP
diagnostic delta. It preserves actually merged #18775
`97c07d149b5670088faf15317dcf603c75e2af87` and #18779
`a352c057d475067b4fe67375f06785287dfbe0ce`, and merged runtime fixes
#18711, #18713 and #18718.
- Qualify narrative handling for adjacent repair/verification sentences,
intervening native-failure wording, and negated repair objects.
Questions, denials and hypotheticals retain their controls. Preserve
Previous question beside the qualified Entity type import; separately
restore the already-called `internalResultLink` goal helper binding.
That import is a runtime fixture repair, not a type-only change.
- Include the narrow older-baseline CI typecheck closure and causal
heartbeat test observers in the candidate. All four default typecheck
projects execute. Main already includes the protected upstream tooling
and newer heartbeat fixture, so neither is overwritten with an older
candidate file.
- Preserve all 244 identities, original queries, model, native/human
counts and clocks, including the explicit prior Studio accounting
exception. The full catalog stays on its candidate branch; the 196/244
gate and historical SDK runtime holds remain.

## Verification

The primary’s f478 retry repeated the real composer-hidden five-second
assertion (1 failure,18 passes,1 skip). Investigation established a
setup readiness gap: an outer route response can delay mounting the chat
thread beyond the assertion. The successor adds the existing real-thread
`aria-busy="false"` readiness barrier before the unchanged composer
assertion. The original120-second scenario and digest, unread,
source-link, history, and reply checks are unchanged. The full owning
browser scenario passed naturally in10.2s and with its first real chat
response held6000ms in12.0s. This synchronizes fixture setup; the
underlying AWS late-mount latency remains unproved.

**Current main gates passed:** exact head
`823dab49fcd8470140c178771e5c0c6b78725e97` has [successful normal
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41724620555),
including both required aggregates, fresh Greptile 5/5 and zero
unresolved review threads. Paperclip Review is neutral with a completed
substantive 5/5 and no actionable defect. The current optional
Superagent Security Scan is neutral/inconclusive: Security Graph context
retrieval returned HTTP503, so its assessment did not start. That result
supplies no security PASS credit. The primary source PR retains its
separate current-head gate before Root sequences normal protected
merges.

- Reviewed MCP controls: 130 on main and 129 on the older candidate.
Meaningful parent comparisons failed before implementation/correlation
correction. Controls cover actual offered schema identity, null/omitted
admission, bounded rejection categories and throwing-sink cancellation.
- Exact unchanged production postimages retain 63 Postgres/public-route
controls, nine plan controls and the focused index-plan proof. Owner
OpenAPI passes 32 controls; main’s newer contract passes 33. Earlier
setup/sandbox failures remain recorded; unchanged database controls were
not replayed.
- Narrative owner controls pass 216, retaining all prior 207 controls.
The independent peer passes 144 balanced cases; earlier 108 and 39-case
matrices remain retained. Actual consumer parent failures reproduced the
review findings before repair.
- Main’s server NoEmit passed on its protected baseline; only two pin
files changed afterward. The candidate’s prior full server and
four-project checks passed. All server/package/script/root-lock inputs
remain byte-identical; the changed Runner project’s guard passes on the
current source. Compatibility driver controls pass 47 and six owning
suites pass 82. The one explicitly reviewed Docker-only unit omission
concerns an unimported image-build feature; all four intended project
guards still execute.
- Pin/adapter/contract controls pass 47. All 242 expanded declarations,
the two legacy dispatch rows, and all 244 singleton private policies
retain their authenticated identities. Descriptor, launcher and
private-protocol bytes remain exact; declaration loading invoked zero
fixture callbacks.
- All 506 SDK input blobs match the meaningfully compiled `6abe5739`
source vector. Prior real shared/SDK builds measured declaration/map
changes and zero runtime-JavaScript changes; a compiled consumer accepts
the new kind and rejects an unknown kind. The reviewed registry remains
unchanged. Default source proof, 51 SDK controls, 20 custody controls
and 16 UI consumer controls remain qualified;
runtime/compiler/parser/Zod/canary pins and held runtime grades are
unchanged.
- The full Mac heartbeat run on prior observer source retained **58
passes / six failures in 802.78s**. Two nonassignee controls
subsequently pass focused checks. Four late timeout causes remain
unresolved locally; no flakiness/infrastructure cause or complete local
pass is claimed. [Actual AWS
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41712023737/job/126182620050)
ran this exact heartbeat file with **64 passes in 107.209s**. Its
server/package inputs are unchanged in the current narrative-only
successor. The source-identical f478 heartbeat file also passed all64
AWS tests in105.812s; source inputs remain unchanged. Current main
ordinary CI passed; the primary source PR must independently close its
latest-head ordinary CI gate.
- Historical main [run
41713049555](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41713049555)
recorded six synchronized runner-shutdown failures and cancellations;
the shutdown cause is unknown. A separate chat passive-control assertion
observed one `db.transaction` call where zero was expected. Finite local
probes passed 2+2 but did not establish a cause or late stack. No
external publication, cleanup cause, source fix or flakiness is
inferred. The primary’s separate composer-visibility CI failure also
remains an inconclusive historical result; no guessed fix is credited.
No old-head retry was used.
- Earlier UI/inbox fixture failures and the CLI startup timeout remain
historical. UI/inbox repairs are now upstream in #18799/#18798 and main
preserves those files verbatim. The CLI timeout cause remains unknown.
Broader local repository/Rust qualification is not claimed; fresh hosted
CI supplies broader coverage.
- All four actual repair merges, an exact merged-tree/diagnostic source
join, and fresh controller/source/private-policy/active-run guards
precede the ten-case TestOps measurement. No paid or model eval was
launched for this PR; the original three passes/seven failures remain
unchanged.

## Risks

The next ten-case model result is unproved. Earlier MCP timeout and
continuation-shape causes remain unknown; diagnostics provide future
evidence without relaxing validation or rewriting grades. Prior local/CI
failures are retained, including the unresolved chat assertion and local
heartbeat timeouts.

Initial ownership requires canonical in-window audit facts. Missing
legacy facts remain unknown. The additive `unassigned` contract is
synchronized across shared/OpenAPI/server consumers, with no new UI
marker.

SDK runtime holds and the broader 196/244 qualification gate remain.
Normal protected merges require fresh checks and resolved feedback; no
CODEOWNER or branch-protection bypass is authorized here.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` through Codex. Capabilities used: repository
analysis, code changes, source validation, and local test execution. The
context-window size is not exposed by this harness.

DottaandPaperclip b40e6edaea perf(inbox): combine startup reads and reduce refetch pressure (#18790)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip helps people manage AI agents and their work.
> - Mine shows the work and failures that need the viewing user's
attention.
> - A reload waits for account access, task rows, parent captions and
failure state.
> - Those reads form several browser request stages before useful rows
appear.
> - Live invalidations can also restart the same task-list request more
than once.
> - This change supplies startup data together and removes redundant
refresh work.
> - It preserves current authority, failure presentation, archive state
and row stability.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18645. Related: #18642. This change implements the read-receipt
behavior independently on current master. It does not use that PR's
branch or patch.

**What happened?**

Mine starts its primary request after the session, company and
board-access reads. It then requests parent captions and rich failure
context. Four observed loads spent another 0.45–0.70 seconds after the
primary rows arrived. One slower load waited 1.71 seconds for parent
context. The same run observed two HTTP 429 responses. These timings
identify request waits; they do not attribute the delay to SQL or Node
CPU.

Read receipts also invalidate general task collections and dashboards.
Overlapping parent and child invalidations can start two requests and
abort the first.

**Expected behavior**

The initial page should use one account-safe startup projection and one
complete Mine response. A read receipt should refresh the affected
viewer's inbox state. Each invalidation batch should refresh a covered
query once. Required captions and current failure state must be ready
before first reveal. Existing rows should remain usable during a
transient refresh error.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Open a populated Mine inbox with parent tasks outside the visible
index and a current failed run.
2. Reload with browser HTTP cache retained and application query state
empty.
3. Inspect the session, company, board access, task-index and context
request sequence.
4. Open or mark a task read and inspect the unrelated collection
refetches.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Baseline: `44a9a043b80c18314d8dd89556f444dae696d3d6`.

**Deployment mode**

Authenticated board UI. Local proof uses the real APIs and database with
a synthetic session resolver. No hosted candidate deployment is claimed.

## What Changed

- Add optional, same-user `boardBootstrap` data to the existing session
response. Seed account-keyed company and board-access reads from it.
Keep ordinary endpoint reads for fallback, retry and live
reconciliation. A returning account cannot reuse revoked cached access.
Cache collection and later real refetches remain effective.
- Add the board-only Mine snapshot endpoint. Reuse the canonical issue
selector, private-task filtering, run-read decisions, secret redaction
and interruption/recovery presentation. Assemble the fixed 100-task
page, parent captions and bounded 200-run failure window on the server.
Start independent reads together. Optional source errors keep successful
task rows usable.
- Keep array-shaped source caches for archive and undo. Key Mine source,
context and reveal state by account. Validate the response's user stamp
before committing it. Remove array-only cross-tab Mine broadcasts, which
cannot carry its paired failure context. The server retains
authenticated in-flight coalescing.
- Scope read-receipt invalidation to the affected viewer's inbox, badges
and chat unread state. Keep company and task audit views fresh. Preserve
genuine task mutations, run updates and subscription-gap reconciliation.
- Remove covered scalar-prefix invalidations within a batch. Preserve
predicates, exact matches and different query/refetch constraints. A
later event can still refresh again.
- Retire Mine in-flight reuse after local company activity or run
lifecycle changes. A post-archive read starts fresh. Old work keeps its
admission slot until it settles, even if every HTTP client aborts. The
eight-compute limit stays in place.
- Add API, component and browser regressions. Extend the production
timing harness with matching API/UI artifact receipts, retained-cache
reloads, request status counts, layout checks and optional controlled
network latency. Update API and verification documentation.

## Verification

- Full `pnpm -r typecheck` passes.
- Full `pnpm build` passes.
- Token gates, map checks and diff whitespace checks pass.
- 72 Inbox component tests pass. Startup-specific checks pass, including
account switching, revoked cached access, malformed/absent bootstrap
data and cache collection. The canonical authenticated bootstrap route
also passes against real PostgreSQL.
- Six real PostgreSQL Mine route cases pass, including full equivalence
with legacy authorized projections, privacy, fixed bounds, membership
revocation, coalescing, archive freshness and aborted-client admission.
Four focused legacy coordinator controls pass. Six assembly tests pass.
- Refetch and invalidation regressions pass. Meaningful pre-fix tests
observed two request starts and one abort for overlapping invalidations;
the fix produces one start and no abort. The archive race test observed
the post-archive GET joining the old body before the fix.
- All 11 existing startup browser checks pass, including Tasks/Mine code
loading, desktop/mobile bounds, non-streamlined Coordinator, task
navigation, failed preloading and Back position. The nine focused
startup, fallback, partial-source error, rate-limit recovery,
archive/undo and geometry cases also pass. The 429 cases use the
inherited retry window. Archive and keyboard undo are corroborated
through the real API and reload. Authentication and failure fault
injection in these cases are explicitly simulated.
- Matched production before/after timings are complete. Full aggregate
Vitest coverage is left to CI. At 15:15 UTC, the final-head runner gate
and `review` workflow pass. The 45 build/test/policy jobs are queued;
the Build job has no `ubuntu-latest` runner assigned and has executed no
steps, so remote aggregate results remain unverified. Paperclip Review
and Superagent Security Scan are in progress. Superseded runs for this
PR were cancelled. No current-head check has reported a failure; the CI
checklist remains open. The remaining step is runner allocation and
completion of those external checks; persistent queueing needs the
repository CI owner's attention.
- Greptile completed on final head
`ecde295565309275c4f2fae903caf6892f1eaafd` at 5/5. The map-scope finding
is fixed and resolved; there are no open review threads.

### Matched browser timings

Five alternating baseline/candidate pairs per network scenario, measured
serially
in headful Chrome 156.0.8078.80 on Apple silicon with Node 24.22.2 and a
1440×900
viewport. Both production UIs use their matching real API revision
against one
fixed disposable PostgreSQL fixture: 34 tasks, 31 visible task rows, one
paused
agent and one terminal failure. No active agent/provider work. HTTP
cache is
retained; each initial sample reloads the document and clears
application query
state. Warm navigation and Back retain query state. CPU and throughput
are native.
The 100ms scenario uses CDP minimum request-to-response-header latency
without
request interception. It is a controlled request-dependency experiment,
not a
staging reproduction.

Values are median milliseconds with min–max in parentheses. Paired
saving is
baseline minus candidate for each alternating pair; its median differs
from the
difference of arm medians. Positive saving favors the candidate.

| Network / journey | Baseline | Candidate | Median paired saving |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Native / initial rows | 187.6 (128.9–208.5) | 191.7 (130.3–210.9) |
−23.3 |
| Native / Recent → Mine | 100.17 (99.90–101.87) | 100.07 (99.88–101.37)
| −0.16 |
| Native / task → Back | 70.45 (56.63–72.02) | 66.64 (56.52–67.71) |
+4.94 |
| 100ms / initial rows | 930.3 (914.1–1015.7) | 799.0 (697.1–826.0) |
+211.8 |
| 100ms / Recent → Mine | 100.09 (97.73–100.16) | 100.18 (96.65–100.98)
| −0.02 |
| 100ms / task → Back | 74.97 (62.77–75.82) | 75.47 (61.51–76.19) |
+0.35 |

The controlled-latency initial pairs all improve, saving 108.3–217.0ms.
Native
initial pairs have mixed signs (−67.5 to +78.1ms), so they establish no
reliable
native page-speed improvement. Warm and Back timings are effectively
unchanged.
Median primary-request start is 110.4→135.2ms natively and 497.8→480.9ms
with
100ms latency; these runs do not establish a large startup-only timing
gain.

API requests through the two-second post-reveal window fall from median
32
(32–37) to 27 (25–28) natively, and 37 (33–38) to 30 (25–32) with 100ms
latency.
All 20 samples preserve the same ordered 31 task links, first-row DOM
identity
and geometry. All recorded API responses are HTTP 200; zero unfinished
requests,
429s or JavaScript errors. Lower 429 incidence on staging remains
unproven.

Measured source: baseline `44a9a043b80c18314d8dd89556f444dae696d3d6`,
candidate
`4c12b2ef0ecf0754676e99bd6b9399e84408646c`. Final head
`ecde295565309275c4f2fae903caf6892f1eaafd` changes only two feature-map
files
and existing browser test expectations since that measured candidate;
production executable inputs are identical to the measured candidate.
Asset hashes, API
health revision receipts and every raw sample were retained. These
results do
not claim hosted-page improvement or deployment of this PR.

## Risks

- Startup enrichment adds work to the session read. Failure of this
optional projection falls back to the ordinary company and access
endpoints. It does not invalidate a valid session or replace per-request
server authorization.
- Account changes, stale cache entries and same-company navigation can
expose old presentation data. Account keys, principal stamps, reveal
scopes and canonical bootstrap replacement have dedicated negative
cases. Permission failures hide cached task rows; transient network, 429
and 5xx failures preserve them.
- Current failure state can differ from the historical failed run. The
snapshot uses the existing canonical rich projection and verified
missing-ID coverage. Partial context failures retain an explicit retry
path.
- Mutation retirement follows events delivered to the current server
process. This adds no cross-replica invalidation protocol or distributed
read-after-write guarantee.
- New UI assets require the matching API. Older UI/session consumers
retain their existing response and endpoint behavior. There is no
database migration, provider call or deployment change.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with reasoning, code execution, browser
automation and delegated source review. The exact runtime model ID and
context-window size are not exposed by this session.

DottaandPaperclip 40b8075916 feat(ui): show scheduled task waits as Monitoring (#18624)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Task indicators tell an operator whether work is active, waiting, or
complete.
> - An agent can yield until a saved monitor checks CI or another
external result.
> - The task currently keeps the In Progress icon between those runs.
> - Changing the stored status would affect monitor admission and
recovery.
> - This pull request adds a read-only Monitoring display state with a
blue clock.
> - Operators can see and filter scheduled waits while execution keeps
its existing rules.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Task status indicators, task collection filters, board columns, and
search facets.

**Current behavior**

A task that waits for a scheduled monitor shows the same In Progress
icon as active work.

**Proposed behavior**

Show Monitoring with a static blue clock when an agent-owned task has a
saved ordinary monitor and no active run, execution lock, review
participant, or active recovery action. Return to the normal task
indicator when the check starts. Preserve review, blocked, terminal, and
quota-recovery states.

**Reason and benefit**

Operators can distinguish scheduled waits from current agent work
without reading the task history.

**Breaking changes**

None to stored task statuses or execution rules. Task reads gain
optional displayStatus. Collections and search gain a separate read
filter. Existing status filters keep their lifecycle meaning.

Related historical work: #4396 covered a monitoring label exemption.
This change uses the saved monitor and a read projection.

## What Changed

- Add one SQL projection for task detail, compact lists, summaries,
relations, search results, and display-status counts.
- Show the blue clock in shared task icons and chips, task detail and
breadcrumbs, properties, references, list rows, recent navigation, and
agent task cards.
- Add Monitoring to task filtering, grouping, sorting, board columns,
and search facets. Prevent a drag from creating this derived state.
- Keep stored lifecycle statuses, monitor scheduling, checkout,
recovery, permissions, and agent status filters unchanged.
- Add database and UI regression coverage, full-page Storybook examples,
and product and access-map documentation.

## Verification

- Passed `pnpm -r typecheck`.
- Passed `pnpm build`.
- Passed `pnpm check:token-gates` and the map/catalog structural checks.
- Ran the new database suite on a disposable PostgreSQL 17 database. It
covers read surfaces, filter pagination/counts, queued/running checks,
rescheduling, completion, retained monitors, review, and recovery holds.
- Ran existing search, list, board, sidebar, task status, and filter
tests. Corrected board queries use displayStatus and eight columns.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` stopped in a chat integration shard: 12
failures (four timeouts and eight FIFO publication assertions). That run
spanned a rebase. A focused rerun on the current source passed all 21
selected cases without assertion or timeout changes. The original cause
is not established; this does not claim the full local suite passed.
Final-head required CI passed (ci / verify and ci / e2e, run
41488267209).
- Passed 82 tests for task API summaries, recovery precedence, search,
and optimistic updates; 54 tests for status cards, database reads, and
board moves; and 27 tests for blocker relations and recent-task cache
updates. One intermediate database setup hit its 20-second hook timeout;
the serial rerun passed.
- Greptile is 5/5 on d003ea672d. All
review threads are resolved. The separate optional Paperclip Review
ended early and returned neutral; GitHub rejected a direct rerun request
with HTTP 404. It is not counted as a completed review.
- Review fixes cover escalated recovery, is:open, optimistic status
changes, blocker-summary projection, and recent-task dedupe.
- Reviewed 15 screenshots from production pages and components with
isolated Storybook API fixtures: task detail/properties/breadcrumb,
list, groups, status filter, board, search/results/filter counts,
reference pills, sibling navigation, agent cards, picker, dashboard,
inbox, profile, watched status-card tasks, light theme, and mobile. This
does not claim deployed staging verification.

## Risks

- Read projections must stay consistent across full, compact, summary,
and search responses. Tests cover those paths.
- Monitoring is not a writable lifecycle status. The board does not
accept drops into its Monitoring lane or onto a monitored card. This
prevents a drag from implying a scheduled check. Move work into In
Progress through that lane instead.
- The read projection adds run/recovery existence checks. Existing
heartbeat_runs_company_issue_created_idx and
issue_recovery_actions_company_source_status_idx indexes cover the
company/task lookup. It adds no worker, timer, recurring query,
migration, or provider call. No production load benchmark is claimed.
- Older clients can ignore displayStatus. Existing lifecycle status
filters keep their behavior.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 0748b90062 fix(server): stop goal-less native runs before board task closure (#18616)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A task owns its active run and its tool access.
> - A board user can close a task while that run is still working.
> - The task update route stopped native runs only when they had an
active session goal.
> - Providers without goals kept running after the route cleared task
ownership.
> - This pull request stops those native runs before a board closure
releases ownership.
> - The benefit is an orderly stop instead of tool denials and failed
finalization.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A board user marked a task Done while its native OpenCode run was
active. The route cleared its execution lock without stopping the
provider. Later tool calls failed with
`paperclip_runner_tool_binding_not_authorized`. The final wake fence
then failed with `native_current_wake_comments_binding_changed`, leaving
workspace finalization in retry. Cancelled also released ownership
before its later Stop call.

**Expected behavior**

A board closure must confirm native Stop before it releases task
ownership. A failed Stop must leave the task open. The provider does not
need to support session goals.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a native task with a provider that has no active session goal.
2. Mark the task Done while its run is active.
3. Observe that the old route updates the task without cancelling the
run.

## What Changed

- Reuse the existing audited cancellation path before a board user marks
an active native task Done or Cancelled.
- Keep the existing 409 response when Stop is unconfirmed.
- Record the board user in the Stop metadata. The existing
acknowledged-Stop policy then leaves queued input and recovery quiet
until a later explicit wake.
- Inspect additional runs only when a task has an execution owner; tasks
without a run lock keep their existing completion path.
- Keep native semantic completion, legacy completion, and goal control
behavior.
- Add route regressions for stop ordering, failed Stop, and legacy
completion.
- Update the execution contract and task maps.

## Verification

- Red before the fix: three regressions failed. Done had no Stop;
Cancelled stopped after the update; an unconfirmed Stop allowed Done.
- A second red proved that a Stop receipt without the route's operator
metadata was not recognized by the real recovery policy. Both cases pass
after the metadata repair.
- Final local result on macOS arm64 / Node.js 26.4.0: **348 tests pass
across eight suites**. These cover the route, native self-completion
authority, cancellation, acknowledged Stop, recovery queues, dependency
wakeups, and completion telemetry.
- CI found seven sibling route failures from an unnecessary active-run
lookup on tasks without execution ownership. Those cases failed locally
before the correction and pass afterward.
- Earlier concurrent local runs hit a module-load hook timeout and one
watchdog socket hang-up. The isolated watchdog case and the complete
final eight-suite run pass with a 90-second startup budget. No assertion
was removed.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` and `git diff --check`: pass.
- `pnpm build` and `pnpm -r typecheck`: pass. Server build and typecheck
also pass after the Stop metadata change; the final server build
includes the lookup correction.
- `pnpm test:run`: attempted; the unchanged chat shard selector failed
before executing its selected tests (`No test found ... in lines ...`).
This is separate from the PostgreSQL startup failure. CI supplies
full-suite verification.
- PostgreSQL integration and live-provider acceptance did not run
locally. Embedded PostgreSQL failed before app startup with `could not
create semaphores: No space left on device`. No usable isolated local
database runtime was available. CI supplies the PostgreSQL regression
environment. The full live OpenRouter workflow remains unverified.
- The first final-head CI pass hit a 15-second timeout in the unchanged
`attention-retention-work.test.ts` blocker-history fixture. Cleanup then
deadlocked and later inserts reused IDs. This service test does not call
the changed route. The original log is [retained
here](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41476191754/job/125384289220).
The one allowed rerun also failed on the same commit: the `running` case
exceeded 15 seconds again ([rerun
log](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41476191754/job/125393915025)).
The rerun otherwise passed 2,346 tests. No retention source or assertion
was changed. This repeatable failure is the remaining CI gate; the PR is
**not ready to merge**. The next step is to isolate that retention
fixture/query in a usable PostgreSQL environment and repair its cause
before rerunning CI.
- Greptile reviewed final commit
`b3cb41af2d911e9ced219e846cada3ecec835dbf` at **5/5**, with no
unresolved review threads. Greptile is green. CI is blocked by the
repeated retention test timeout described above.
- CI native cancellation evidence: all 16 tests in
`server/src/__tests__/native-cancellation-request.integration.test.ts`
pass ([job
log](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41476191754/job/125384289222)).
- CI PostgreSQL wake-queue evidence: all 96 tests in
`server/src/modules/wake-queue/adapters/postgres.test.ts` pass ([job
log](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41476191754/job/125384289470)).

## Risks

Board closure now waits for native Stop even when the provider has no
goal. A failed or uncertain Stop keeps the task open. The change uses
the existing cancellation and workspace-preservation path. It adds no
retry loop, credential access, schema change, or publication authority.
Direct service updates and agent semantic completion retain their
existing paths.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository tools, shell
execution, and browser inspection. The exact serving snapshot ID and
context window are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip e09f40888a fix(recovery): preserve native task access during resolution (#18489)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip controls agent execution and task ownership.
> - A native run needs its task binding until it reports its result.
> - Direct task updates already reject self-status changes that remove
this binding.
> - Recovery resolution can also change the source task status.
> - That route did not use the same protection.
> - This change rejects the unsafe status change before the task or
recovery receipt changes.
> - The run can then use semantic completion while normal recovery
permissions remain effective.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18411.

**What happened?**

A running native owner can resolve an older recovery action with
`sourceIssueStatus: "in_review"` or `"done"`. The request succeeds and
changes its own task status. That can release the execution binding
before the run reports. Later task tools fail with
`paperclip_runner_tool_binding_not_authorized`.

**Expected behavior**

Return a conflict before the task status or action receipt changes. Tell
the run to report through `paperclip_finish` or `paperclip_block`.
Preserve unchanged-status resolution, Board recovery, legacy-agent
behavior, and the existing conversation and handoff rules.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Give a running native owner the task execution lock and an older
recovery action.
2. Call `POST /api/issues/{id}/recovery-actions/resolve` as that run.
Use `outcome: "restored"` and `sourceIssueStatus: "in_review"`.
3. Before this fix, the route returns 200 and changes the status. After
this fix, it returns 409 with `native_run_status_reported_by_finish` and
makes no task or action mutation.

## What Changed

- Reuse the existing native self-status guard inside recovery
resolution's source-task transaction.
- Let the guard receive the requested status from either route contract.
- Add HTTP route regressions for rejected review/completion transitions
and continued task editing after rejection.
- Cover unchanged-status native resolution, Board recovery and
legacy-agent resolution.
- Update execution semantics and both recovery maps.

## Verification

- Baseline `91fdf02`: the two new rejection cases fail because the real
Express route returns 200. Three safety cases pass.
- Fixed source: all 198 tests in
`server/src/__tests__/issue-agent-mutation-ownership-routes.test.ts`
pass.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` passes. This is structural evidence.
- Greptile and Paperclip Review both give the integrated head 5/5 with
no actionable findings.
- Full recursive typecheck, full build, and a repeat of all 198 route
tests pass at integrated head
`0fa104dfb240500acd01303cd446363ea39c6c75`. All current-head CI gates
pass (55 successful checks/statuses; no failed or pending checks).
- The full local `pnpm test:run` command fails in chat-test line
selection with `No test found`, before assertions. This also occurs with
the unchanged master chat test file. It is not a passing full local
suite.
- The route tests use the real route, validation and guard. They mock
service and database boundaries. The observed hosted failure establishes
the original mechanism. Fixed-source live provider acceptance remains
unverified. No deployment or merge is part of this PR.

## Risks

- A native owner now receives a conflict for a previously accepted
recovery status change. It must use the existing semantic result path.
- This prevents a new binding loss. It does not prove that an old remote
executor stopped or recover missing provider state.
- Board, legacy, conversation and handoff behavior retains existing
authority. The regression includes representative allowed paths.

## Model Used

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

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 51ea624344 fix(server): reject a native run's own task status change (#18411)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs (the Paperclip Runner) report their outcome with
`paperclip_finish` or `paperclip_block`, and the status arbiter then
sets the task status
> - Every runner tool, `paperclip_finish` included, requires that the
task's `executionRunId` is the current run
> - When the run sends its own status change through `PATCH
/api/issues/{id}` (for example with `call_api`), the issue update clears
`executionRunId` and `checkoutRunId`, so the run removes its own
execution lock
> - After that, every tool call fails, the run cannot report, same-run
recovery spends its retries, and the task goes to `blocked`
> - This pull request rejects that status change with a 409 before it
commits, and the message tells the run to report with `paperclip_finish`
or `paperclip_block`
> - The benefit is that the run corrects itself in the same turn, and
the task does not get stuck

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists. This is the bug description.

**What happened?**

An agent on the Paperclip Runner followed task instructions that said
"set the task to `in_review` and keep it assigned to yourself" while it
waited on a scheduled monitor. It sent `call_api` with `PATCH
/api/issues/{id}` and `{ "status": "in_review" }`. The server applied
the change and cleared the execution lock. Then:

1. `get_task`, `set_task_monitor`, and `paperclip_finish` all failed the
run binding check. The provider saw only "Paperclip semantic operation
failed", or the monitor-wait message from `paperclip_finish`.
2. The `call_api` receipt for the PATCH showed `status: null, outcome:
unknown`, because the authority check after the response failed when the
lock was gone.
3. The session ended with no semantic result. Exact-checkpoint resume
ran out of retries (`native_session_retry_exhausted`), and recovery
would not replay the run because the mutation outcome was unknown. The
task went to `blocked`.

This occurred on each check where the agent tried the status change.
Runs that did not try it completed normally.

**Expected behavior**

A native run that holds the task's execution lock cannot remove its own
lock. It gets a clear, actionable error and reports its outcome through
`paperclip_finish` or `paperclip_block`.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Assign a task to an agent that uses the Paperclip Runner (native
runtime).
2. While the run executes, have it send `call_api` with `PATCH
/api/issues/{id}` and `{ "status": "in_review" }` for its own task.
3. Look at the next tool calls of the run. They fail, `paperclip_finish`
cannot complete, and recovery blocks the task.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`master` at 493e229d93.

## What Changed

- `server/src/routes/issues.ts`: add
`assertNativeRunKeepsOwnExecutionLock` to `PATCH /issues/:id`. The guard
returns 409 `native_run_status_reported_by_finish` when all of these are
true:
- the actor is the assigned agent, and its run is the task's execution
or checkout run
  - the run is `native` and `running`
  - the request changes the status and keeps the assignment
  - the task is not a conversation
- The 409 message names `paperclip_finish` (`needs_review`, `done`, or
`yielded` with a `monitor` continuation) and `paperclip_block`.
`call_api` returns HTTP denials as data, so the provider can read the
message.
- Conversation tasks are out of scope. A conversation turn settles from
its final reply (`nativeConversationReplyResult`), not from a runner
tool. So a reply that moves its conversation to `in_review` still
settles, and that contract stays.
- When the request also carries blockers, the guard first runs
`assertOnboardingFirstTaskDependenciesAllowed`. A blocker that the
dependency rules reject keeps its specific 400. Every other case gets
the 409, including `{ "status": "todo", "blockedByIssueIds": [] }`.
- `server/src/__tests__/issue-agent-mutation-ownership-routes.test.ts`:
add 14 cases. They cover rejection for `in_review`, `done`, and
`blocked` (also with an explicit self-assignment, an empty blocker list,
and a real blocker), and the onboarding 400 that wins over the 409.
Pass-through cases assert a 200, the patched status, and one update for:
other field edits, legacy runs, native runs without the lock, stopped
runs, handoffs to a human (after a confirmed stop), conversation
replies, and board users.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issue-agent-mutation-ownership-routes.test.ts`
passes (193 tests).
- With the guard disabled, the 4 rejection cases fail. With the `native`
runtime condition removed, the legacy pass-through case fails. The tests
pin both sides.
- `chat-project-tools` and `onboarding-first-task-admission` pass (74
tests). These are the integration suites that caught the first version
of the guard in CI.
- `npx vitest run` on `issue-queued-comments-routes`,
`task-workspace-binding`, and `issue-recovery-actions` together with the
ownership suite passes (455 tests).
- `npx tsc --noEmit -p server/tsconfig.json` is clean after `pnpm
--filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner build`.

## Risks

- Behavior changes only for native runs that change the status of the
task whose execution lock they hold. That change always stranded the run
before this PR, so no working flow depends on it.
- Legacy adapters, board users, agent handoffs or reassignments, and
conversation tasks do not change.
- Other validation errors that run later (in the service update) are
replaced by the 409 for these requests. Each request is still rejected,
and the 409 points the run to `paperclip_finish` or `paperclip_block`.
The onboarding parent-blocker error keeps its 400, because the guard
runs that check first.
- If a request names the current assignee with a reference that is not
its id, the guard does not apply, and the request follows the earlier
rules.
- No migration.

Related gaps this PR does not change:
- The authority check after the response turns a committed mutation into
`outcome: unknown`.
- The runner hides tool binding errors as "Paperclip semantic operation
failed".
- The `paperclip_finish` monitor-wait error does not say that the run
lost its lock.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, in Claude Code with
tool use (shell, file edits, test runs). It did the root-cause analysis
from run events and the activity log, wrote the code and tests, and ran
local verification.

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

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

**Problem or motivation**

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

**Proposed solution**

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

**Alternatives considered**

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

**Roadmap alignment**

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 6dcf4160dd perf(chat): load recent messages and page history on scroll (#18358)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets people manage work done by agents.
> - A standing agent chat can hold months of conversation.
> - The chat route forced full-history mode, bypassing compact task
loading.
> - A cold visit fetched lifetime run summaries and hydrated historical
transcripts.
> - This PR starts with 20 recent messages and loads earlier pages on
upward scroll.
> - It preserves the reader's position, current questions, and draft
while history grows.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Standing agent chats forced full-history loading. A long conversation
fetched full activity and run history before it became readable. Earlier
comments also used an explicit load control.

**Expected behavior**

Open a small recent conversation quickly. Load older messages when the
reader scrolls upward. Show an inline loading state. Keep the visible
message and composer mounted through paging, live updates, and Back
navigation.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Open a standing agent chat with hundreds of messages and completed
runs.
2. Use a fresh browser query cache.
3. Observe full activity and run reads plus transcript requests for
historical runs.
4. Compare the recent window and upward paging after this change.

Related work: #18312 and #18323 restored compact task and collection
loading. #14848 added reopening of visited agent chats. A GitHub search
found no open PR for this chat-history optimization.

## What Changed

- Return 20 contiguous recent comments for standing chats, with a stable
oldest cursor. Keep the existing compact task exchange contract. Use the
existing company/issue/time index for cursor reads.
- Keep chats compact even if their task view previously expanded
history. Retain observed messages through live catch-up and cache-backed
return visits.
- Keep fetched history pages, acknowledged sends, and the observed
recent cursor separate. Reconcile live replies without losing history
after a send or deleted cursor.
- Hydrate metadata only for newly revealed message/run IDs; preserve
prior batches while paging. Slow-send recovery refreshes the recent
window. Receipts failures have an independent retry.
- Hydrate run summaries only for loaded messages and the latest turn.
Validate batches of at most 100 run IDs and keep the existing
issue/company access rules.
- Reuse hydrated terminal native streams when only history membership
changes. Preserve retry, resume, mode changes, reconnect recovery, and
interrupted recovery reads.
- Load older messages, decision receipts, and task handoffs through
upward scrolling. Support wheel, touch, and keyboard input. Keep pending
questions visible.
- Reserve a status slot while loading. Preserve a logical message anchor
and the mounted composer. Pause failed page reads until an inline Retry.
- Add database, route, controller, and scroll regressions, plus an
opt-in production-build browser rig for long chats on desktop and
mobile. Update design and feature/access documentation.

## Verification

- The real PostgreSQL cold-open suite passes all 12 tests, including
contiguous pages with equal timestamps, complete history, company
denial, and scoped run IDs.
- Activity route and OpenAPI suites pass 53 tests. The route run allowed
local cold-import overhead; CI retains the repository's normal timeouts.
- Three new paging regressions fail against the unchanged source. The
candidate's focused paging/window suite passes 26 tests. Broader UI
verification is recorded below when complete.
- Desktop and mobile browser acceptance covers recent-only startup,
per-frame reveal geometry, delayed and failed older pages, stable
reading anchors and drafts, Back, older comment links, and one persisted
live reply.
- Full workspace typecheck and build passed locally. The final UI source
also passes its typecheck and production build.
- Affected UI suites pass: 212 controller/history/paging tests, 352
thread/scroller tests, 26 native-stream tests, plus metadata batching
and live-cache hydration coverage. The issue mutation/access route suite
passes 179 tests.
- All 22 final desktop/mobile browser journeys pass, including delayed
image growth. The isolated second-page request proof also passes six
repeated desktop/mobile runs. A separate 6,000-message, 3,000-run
fixture passes cold-open and delayed-paging checks on both screen sizes,
still opening 20 messages and loading one 50-message page.
- Final matched production timings use baseline `aa58fa1073`
(`index-BaRiMbxd.js`) and candidate UI source `f9a26b9783`
(`index-DPWTbsFF.js`, identical application source at final head
`bf71ffd5af`). Chromium 151.0.7922.34, 1440×900, 4× CPU throttle, no
added network latency, browser HTTP cache disabled, fresh application
cache for each cold visit. Both variants block service workers and use
the same warm local API server and immutable 600-message/300-run
fixture. Only document HTML is intercepted for both variants; API
requests are real. The common API revision is `109981f8c1`; subsequent
commits change only UI and tests.

| Usable conversation | Baseline median (range) | Candidate median
(range) |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Cold direct URL | 6.57 s (5.69–7.45) | 3.07 s (2.50–3.28) |
| Warm in-app return | 3.76 s (3.54–4.76) | 0.67 s (0.58–1.46) |
| Back return | 2.53 s (2.12–4.20) | 0.51 s (0.47–1.18) |

Five pairs alternate order. Every paired difference favors the candidate
for all three journeys. Readiness requires a revealed, fully visible
latest reply above the composer and an editable composer. Return timing
starts after the Tasks route renders. Cold API requests fall from
953–954 to 71; API wire bytes fall from 517–559 KB to about 49 KB.
Separate CPU profiles and request waterfalls confirm the removal of
lifetime event hydration and are excluded from the five timing pairs.
Both variants have the same expected missing optional plan document
(404) and no browser exceptions. Control recent-window API reads have
medians of 37 ms / 32 ms, with shared-host outliers up to 376 ms.

The 6,000-message recent-window SQL uses
`issue_comments_company_issue_created_at_idx` (22 index rows read for a
21-row probe). Geometry assertions retain a 2-pixel tolerance for the
reading anchor and first-reveal layout. These are local synthetic
measurements, not deployed staging latency. Earlier timing probes are
excluded because they did not isolate service workers or composer
clearance. Final head `bf71ffd5afb5684ba9105a3127f617e7adf5139c` has 55
successful checks, three optional skips and one neutral result, with no
failures or pending checks. Greptile is 5/5 with no open review
findings.

### Failure record

Early local attempts exposed an unconditional scroller wrapper that
changed the old task layout, and automatic retries on chat page
failures. Both were corrected. The original task scroller structure
stays in place. Metadata request assertions wait for initial connection
recovery to settle, then verify only the new page’s reads;
retry/resume/reconnect revalidation remains intentional.

The initial review caught a send-before-scroll cache defect; its
controller regression failed before the fix. Later rapid-paging checks
caught scroll readiness being gated by metadata after the first reveal;
readiness now stays enabled once revealed. Live replies use the separate
acknowledged-message cache, then catch up from the server cursor.

Visual review exposed a pagination wrapper bypassing existing composer
clearance. The body is again a direct scroller child; cold-open browser
checks require the full latest reply above the composer. A
resize-observer regression failed before the fix and now passes.
Controlled delayed inline images prove both pinned following and a
stable reading anchor on desktop/mobile.

The first performance fixture lacked valid native event envelopes and
caused missing-log fallbacks. It is excluded from latency claims. The
final fixture uses saved native assistant events and conversation
session generations. The live test uses a temporary fixture-agent key,
attributes the reply to an existing synthetic run, and revokes the key.
It starts no model or agent process.

Local database attempts failed during a Docker shutdown. The retained
disposable database was restored and its suite passed. Early fixture
errors included a missing conversation identity field and session
generation. Mobile test setup also selected an offscreen sidebar link
and reused queued human input. Optional announcements could intercept
input; the fixture now dismisses them before the journeys. The scroll
observer now waits for the delivered wheel event and settled animation
frames, including when the viewport is already at the top. A
concurrently running live test briefly changed another probe’s row
count; the final acceptance and timing runs were sequential on separate
fixtures. The final rig uses the visible mobile navigation and a saved
agent reply. Anchor observation waits for the user's scroll to settle
before measuring the effect of live updates.

The full local `pnpm test:run` attempt hit repeated embedded PostgreSQL
initialization failures and failures in untouched native-session
executor suites; it was stopped after the repeated environment failures.
The targeted real-PostgreSQL suite passed, and final-head CI is required
before handoff. The first CI run also caught an exact mock expectation
missing the added company scope; the expectation is updated and its
179-test suite passes. The final-head first CI attempt also stalled an
assigned child task in the existing plan-approval scenario, then hit a
heartbeat-run row lock timeout during fixture cleanup. The failed shard
and aggregate check passed on an unchanged rerun of the same commit.
Scenario assertions and timeouts were unchanged. The failure and rerun
are retained in [CI run
41116120430](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41116120430).

## Risks

- Historical transcript diagnostics no longer load on a cold chat open.
Saved messages and conversation events remain available; diagnostic run
views keep their full records.
- Cursor paging must not omit comments with equal timestamps. Database
tests cover timestamp/UUID ordering and the complete set.
- Prepended or late content can move the reader. Browser checks cover
retained row identity, viewport offsets, mounted drafts, and Back.
Previously loaded pages stay in the query cache for its existing
lifetime.
- Local synthetic evidence does not establish deployed staging latency.
This PR does not merge or deploy the change.

execution. The exact backend deployment ID and context window were not

DottaandPaperclip 7e27bc5007 fix(tasks): keep anchored opens compact and stabilize saved cards (#18092)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Task pages must make the current instruction and recent conversation
readable quickly.
> - Compact startup avoids reading all earlier messages and run
activity.
> - Every URL fragment previously selected the full-history path, even
for documents.
> - Saved document cards also arrived after the conversation was
visible. PR statistics could add another row later.
> - This pull request keeps anchors compact and reveals the saved
conversation structure together.
> - The benefit is stable reading position without loading unrelated
history.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #17593 introduced compact startup. #14667 covers earlier reveal
and scroll work. This fix retains the bounded history contract.

**What happened?**

Opening a task document link loaded all task history. Ordinary cold
opens could reveal messages before saved document cards and plans
arrived. Later PR metadata added a statistics row and changed card
height.

**Expected behavior**

Every URL fragment keeps compact startup. Document links open their
pane. Older-comment links fetch only the target comment. Saved cards
keep their geometry after first reveal.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create a task with many comments, a saved plan, documents and saved
PR work products.
2. Delay the enriched task response and open the task. Observe cards
inserted after messages appear.
3. Open a document fragment. Observe full comment, activity and run
reads.
4. Delay PR metadata refresh. Observe each card grow when diff counts
arrive.

## What Changed

- Remove fragment and tab checks from automatic history expansion.
Resolve validated comment UUIDs through the authorized single-comment
endpoint, encode their path components, retain fetched targets across
document navigation, and preserve cancellation/deletion cache updates.
- Include the saved plan, document metadata and local work-product
projection in the core task read. Skip recovery, workspace and
related-task enrichment. Do not refresh providers. Summary queries no
longer select other document bodies.
- Seed saved work-product and plan queries from core, including already
pending or errored reads, without replacing known lists or an
authoritative empty result. Coordinate the bounded recent reads, saved
cards, latest transcript and settled initial pane width before first
reveal. Keep the thread and composer mounted during refresh and explicit
expansion.
- Open continuation summaries in the document pane. Reserve PR
statistics geometry while provider metadata loads.
- Add a reusable synthetic local task, nine browser checks, frame
measurements and video. Extend the PostgreSQL core-route fixture with a
saved PR row and assert its identity, URL, state and stored metadata
survive the response. Update design guidance and capability maps.

## Verification

- Red: visible document/plan cards changed from 0 to 1 to 4; thread
height grew from 690 to 1,432 pixels. Green: all seven saved cards
appear before reveal, with constant thread height and zero per-card
movement in the final reviewed browser run. The final 1,492-pixel layout
includes the reserved PR statistics lines.
- Red: delayed PR diff counts changed all three cards from 62 to 82
pixels. Green: their heights stay at 82 pixels before and after metadata
refresh.
- Nine browser journeys pass: delayed enrichment,
document/comment/unknown/continuation anchors, document clicks and
explicit history expansion with a retained draft, missing-comment retry,
delayed PR statistics, and retained older-comment position after
document navigation.
- 583 focused UI tests passed on `c91fa107ba`. After the plan-cache
follow-up, all 212 affected page/cache/plan-hook tests and UI typecheck
pass, including 14 plan-hook cases. The original 16 focused PostgreSQL
tests passed for the server changes.
- Merge-review red: holding the duplicate stored work-products read
blocked the first reveal past 10 seconds despite core already containing
the saved cards. Both empty and populated core projections now reveal
while that request remains pending. Malformed-comment tests prove no
target request is made; API tests prove path encoding and abort-signal
forwarding.
- The populated core-route test now inserts a real saved PR work product
alongside the plan and documents, then checks the complete saved
projection through HTTP. All ten task cold-open PostgreSQL tests pass.
- Plan-cache review red: an existing pending or errored plan query
prevented the saved core plan from reaching the consumer. Four real-hook
cases failed before the data-presence fix and pass afterward, for both
present and absent plans. A separately fetched newer plan or known
absent plan remains authoritative.
- Further layout red: the initial properties pane reduced visible thread
width from 775 to 742 pixels after reveal. The reveal now waits for two
stable width frames; the browser check includes width, height, card
counts and per-card geometry.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed for the original change;
UI typecheck and build pass after review fixes. Token, module-boundary
and map checks pass. `pnpm test:run` was stopped after about 15 minutes
in the serialized server lane. No full local test-suite pass is claimed.
On the earlier head, hosted build/typecheck and all Vitest lanes passed;
one E2E shard failed because the agent-configuration clipboard helper
copied page text into its YAML parser. On `c91fa107ba`, Greptile was 5/5
and every E2E shard passed, including the earlier clipboard case. One
unchanged Discord chat-binding test in server shard 8 returned false
after 185 ms; its 16-test integration file passes locally without
changes. The CI cause remains unestablished. On `be436ce492`, both
server shard 8 and E2E shard 7 passed without changing those tests or
their product code. On final head `e357b3bced`, all CI jobs pass,
including full general and serialized tests, all eight E2E shards,
typecheck, build and the aggregate verification gate. Exact-head
Greptile is 5/5 with no findings. The overall status rollup contains 55
successes, two intentionally skipped Storybook checks and a neutral
Paperclip Review. That advisory review ended without a complete
assessment; all previously posted findings are resolved and it added no
current findings.
- Test startup exceeded an initial 5-second deadline once while
development assets and other checks were active. The final browser
checks allow 10 seconds. These runs establish geometry and bounded
requests; they do not establish a reliable latency improvement. An
initial 503 error fixture exercised global reconnect/backoff. The
target-comment failure test uses a terminal 404.
- Browser data is synthetic. Provider metadata is simulated for the
delayed-response check. No staging deployment or live provider execution
is claimed.

## Risks

- Core task reads now include local saved-card queries and the saved
plan body. Other document bodies and all historical run activity remain
outside that path.
- First reveal waits for the bounded current structure. The existing
15-second incomplete-history fallback and inline retry remain available.
- Continuation-summary links open in the document pane in the current
task interface. Classic tasks keep their existing surface.
- No migration or mutation permission change.

## Model Used

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

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

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

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

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

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

## What Changed

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

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

## Verification

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

## Risks

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

df6156c2e3 fix(server): wake native status reassessment from committed changes (#17709)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents, tasks and their durable native results.
> - Changed evidence, task authority or review retirement can require a
new status assessment.
> - Periodic orphan recovery repeatedly reads history to find these
changes.
> - This change gives reassessment an owner driven by committed changes
and saved deadlines.
> - Existing result, assessment, decision and task rows remain durable
truth.
> - The status committer still verifies current sources and authority
before writing.
> - Settled or insufficient evidence becomes quiet until a supported
producer changes it.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17702 (merged), #17679 and #17680. This is slice 50, now based on
master. It owns native status reassessment; workspace settlement,
retained sessions and other orphan duties remain separate.

**What happened?**

Periodic recovery repeatedly inspects completed native results. Removing
that scan without complete writer coverage or current authority checks
could strand new evidence or commit an old result over newer work.

**Expected behavior**

Reassess from existing durable facts after relevant outer transactions
commit. Retain real retry/lease deadlines and restart/drain recovery.
Preserve current authority, quality-review and supersession checks. Make
no recurring SQL when work is settled or dormant.

**Steps to reproduce**

Complete a native result awaiting evidence or review, leave it idle,
then approve a real work product or retire the selected automatic
review. Its saved result should advance once when authorized, or record
the existing nonterminal business gate, without a periodic scan.

## What Changed

- Extract reassessment and its pure status policy from finalization
recovery into their owning modules. Add a scoped worker using the
existing delivery coordinator and scheduler; no queue table or migration
is added.
- Retain the three durable discovery triggers: changed work-product
history, authoritative task status/version, or retirement of the
selected automatic completion review. Preserve selected-source,
ownership, effects, retry and lease fences under the existing committer.
- Notify from actual task/work-product, claim release, approval,
interaction, OAuth, event evidence and workspace-settlement owners
before their transaction writes. Keep provider calls outside short
transactions and nested writes behind outer commit.
- Scope ordinary milestone/finalization/coalesced-input wakes to an
issue/run. Keep genuine company authority restoration explicit. Real
Photon and coalescer regressions cover all three response/status queues.
- Move the current parent's required quality policy into the owner and
apply it to every reassessment that could complete a task. An unmet
review records the existing in-progress decision and next action,
avoiding an operational retry loop. Preserve conversation/session reset
locks and the workspace omission-barrier signal.
- Skip reassessment in periodic recovery while preserving
explicit/startup recovery and the historical supersession guard before
independent workspace work. Document the source contract, producer
inventory, failures and qualifications in the linked audit.

## Verification

- Broad source `9fddb3f0b1157df32b64fb1f22e9d6e9624470e8` passes **2731
distinct cases in 28 complete files**, with no skips: 2458
producer/owner/authority/workspace/quality cases in 394.43 seconds and
all 273 governed-response cases in 53.74 seconds. Nineteen dedicated
fresh PostgreSQL 17 databases migrate through 0413; eighteen
embedded-only invocations preserve fresh-per-call isolation through the
existing recovery helper. All 22 temporary imports restore exactly and
all 28 hashes match.
- Final runtime source `5ea3b0fd016bf7e63ba82a7044825a46a0cd2082` passes
**1211 cases in five complete affected files** in 108.23 seconds after
the narrowly reproduced evidence-trigger fix: all 43 worker, 145 corpus,
32 finalization-recovery, 968 native-session and 23 quality-review
cases. Four fresh databases plus the quality helper's own fresh fixture
use PostgreSQL 17. Its one adapted import restores exactly; all five
hashes match. The other 27 broad-run test files are unchanged. These
qualifications are source-scoped and not cumulatively double-counted.
- Required/optional real regressions reproduce retry loops on
retired-review and evidence-approval paths before repair; both become
SQL quiet afterward with unchanged assertions/time limits. Controlled
removal of only ordinary scope guards reproduces two coarse-hint SQL
failures; exact guard restoration passes. Real producer, outer
transaction, claim, authority, 103-item backlog, retry and drain cases
pass. Photon transport is mocked; callbacks, locks and observed SQL are
real.
- Normal merges preserve 12661 parent/unrelated entries, 35 owned
entries and 21 automatic shared results, with five original conflicts
reviewed explicitly. The parent's actual squash reconciliation preserves
the entire held child tree. The final quality fix changes only its owner
and tests. Fourteen added comments are removed with identical nontrivia
tokens; no directives are removed and the final comment check is empty.
- Database build, server types/build, boundaries and exact-head
migration order pass. The database tree is identical to merged #17702:
no new SQL, queue table or snapshot is generated. Earlier benchmarks,
host limitations, failed assertions and their repairs remain in
`doc/plans/2026-10-26-native-status-reassessment-sleep-audit.md` and
`doc/idle-native-status-reassessment.md`.
- This qualifies targeted external PostgreSQL behavior, not embedded
bootstrap on the semaphore-exhausted host, a full local repository
suite, deployed sleep or measured fleet savings. Fresh exact-head CI and
review remain required.

## Risks

- Notifications retain the process-local supported-writer contract.
Independent SQL writers and uncoordinated replicas are not covered by a
new transport.
- Reassessment competes with current authority changes. Existing
row/source locks and retries remain required; arbitrary missing
identities have no row to lock, so this is not a general predicate-lock
guarantee.
- Discovery pages 100 rows but retains outstanding candidates in memory.
It remains proportional to backlog size, and cancellation occurs between
queries.
- Other orphan/workspace/session duties and Cloud sleep eligibility
remain unchanged. Missing supported producer coverage could strand
dormant work, so the producer audit and real callback/transaction tests
remain part of acceptance.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, shell
execution and PostgreSQL tests. The runtime does not expose a more
specific serving snapshot or context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip 4e715eb7ea fix(server): schedule historical unsafe export recovery (#17687)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native runs can retain accepted results after an unsafe workspace
export fails.
> - Historical recovery can retire an old notice or resume the accepted
result without another provider turn.
> - The periodic reaper repeatedly scans failures that cannot currently
recover.
> - Existing rows and committed changes can identify the actual recovery
obligation.
> - This pull request wakes recovery from those changes and retries only
owed work.
> - Dormant history becomes quiet while ownership and explicit operator
decisions remain protected.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

The native finalization reaper repeatedly visits historical unsafe
workspace-export failures. Cancelled tasks, newer runs, changed
contracts, and explicit operator decisions can make those rows
permanently ineligible. They still produce periodic database reads.

**What did you expect?**

Retire stale unsafe-export notices and recover eligible accepted
results. Stop reading dormant history until a relevant committed change
occurs. Keep a retry while a real obligation is blocked by ownership or
a transient failure.

**Steps to reproduce**

Retain an unsafe-export terminal failure whose task is cancelled or
superseded. Leave the instance idle after startup. The periodic reaper
continues reading that history.

Prerequisite #17680 is merged into master. Related: #14402 established
safe export finalization; #14329 was an earlier historical recovery
proposal. #17679 owns separate policy-review cleanup. This PR changes
only historical unsafe-export scheduling and its producers.

## What Changed

- Register a scoped worker through the existing coordinator and
scheduler. Remove this duty from periodic reaping. Preserve the
manual/startup recovery entry point.
- Distinguish stale notices, eligible accepted results, dormant history,
and concrete ownership contention. Reuse the existing mutation owner and
lock order. Preserve explicit settlement vetoes and exact
result/contract identity.
- Signal relevant task, run, action, and deletion writes before they
commit. Existing transaction boundaries handle nested commits and
uncertain outcomes. Notifications contain only scope IDs.
- Retain a retry only for owed work. Reconstruct work at startup,
preserve drain/resume, and stop through the shared lifecycle.
- Add concurrent, idempotent partial index migration 0410 for unsafe
terminal failures. Keep the five newest generated schema snapshots.
- Document producer coverage, query plans, supported writer boundaries,
and test failures in the unsafe-export audit.

## Verification

- Source `2a13dd08a6cc52f0adab09e3df9ce31e97b746b9` passes all 2188
cases across 24 complete files, without skips. The main selection passes
2129 cases in 192.58 seconds; safe-replacement passes 59 in 26.04
seconds. Coverage includes all 968 native-session cases, real
export/action producers, explicit continuation, workspace
reconstruction, interaction routing, Stop, queue and Slack consumers.
The audit gives per-file counts.
- Twenty separate fresh PostgreSQL 17 databases migrate through 0410
before setup. Four embedded-only fixture imports temporarily use their
own external database on this IPC-exhausted host, then are restored byte
for byte. Assertions and timing limits stay unchanged. This is qualified
external-database acceptance, not an unmodified embedded CI run.
- Database build, server typecheck/build, module boundaries and
exact-head migration order pass. Normal integration preserves the
complete original runtime/schema patch and unrelated upstream blobs.
Original concurrent index SQL, all prior executable history, journal
entries and retained snapshot bytes are unchanged; five snapshots 0406
through 0410 remain. Added comment removal preserves the full
non-comment TypeScript token streams.
- A populated 0409-to0410 upgrade preserves all 408 prior migration
receipts and 38 companies. It appends exactly one receipt; replay adds
none. The index is valid and ready on fresh and upgraded databases.
- The owning audit retains earlier fixture failures, skipped checks and
notice-retirement regression history. Older combined stack checks retain
their original scope in their owning audits. Actual parent
`73d24aa5acfcf17b3f676b4da7cd05eb70b60b99` is reconciled through a
normal merge. Its tree equals the reviewed ancestor and the complete
accepted child tree is unchanged. Fresh published-head CI and Greptile
5/5 remain required. No deployed sleep, fleet-cost or live provider
qualification claim is made.

- Inherited prefix correction: current integration
`8f43c9f81fac23b50997e7f0e1d0d9cf383a8109` changes only two values in a
previously unselected corpus fixture. All production code, the complete
package tree and all 24 accepted test files remain byte-identical to the
2188-case source above. The additional complete 72-case corpus passes in
14.00 seconds and again on the same database in 13.08 seconds. Retained
PSC/OUT and sentinel rows remain unchanged. The repeat is not
double-counted. The parent audit retains the original collision and
rejected cleanup attempt.

- Latest parent context: integration
`4d51231abe8b68c21ce896d0d2ac16865978c8ab` carries only the parent's
one-argument GitHub observation correction and an independent master
cleanup assertion. All production code, packages, 24 accepted suite
files and the additional corpus are unchanged. The two focused
native-presentation cases pass in 15.14 seconds and the complete
cleanup-removal suite passes all six cases in 8.31 seconds on two fresh
0410 PostgreSQL fixtures. This does not claim the full parent workflow
was rerun here.

Current head `b28399babac72ba9db1c4a4ef882c5e87aded38c` has passing CI
and Greptile 5/5 with no actionable findings. The first CI attempt lost
runners: fourteen jobs explicitly received simultaneous shutdown
signals, two reported lost runner communication, and two aggregate gates
failed downstream. One failed-job retry on unchanged source passes. The
underlying host shutdown cause remains unconfirmed; no code fix or extra
retry is claimed. [CI run and
attempts](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40819408528).
No Ponytail verdict is present.

## Risks

- A missing future producer can delay dormant-history discovery until
restart. The audit names current producers. Independent SQL writers and
other server processes remain outside the process-local signal contract.
- Physical ownership and uncertain operations retain retries. Time alone
does not authorize taking workspace ownership. No provider turn or
unsafe archive retry is added.
- The recovery owner remains authoritative if state changes after
discovery. Terminal UI status does not authorize resource destruction or
accepted-result replay.
- The partial index adds matching-row write/storage cost. It builds
concurrently through the existing restart-safe migration runner.
- This proves the changed worker becomes quiet. It does not prove host
suspension, external wake coverage, or fleet cost savings. Other sleep
migrations remain. This slice still requires fresh current-head CI and
reviews.

## Model Used

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

scotttongandPaperclip 71f0c0c99e feat: add opt-in Coordinator workspace for chat, tasks, and decisions (#17983)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/147/changes/paperclip/147
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - People coordinate work through conversations, tasks, and requests
for input.
> - These surfaces must share task state and preserve the context of
each decision.
> - The existing workspace makes people switch surfaces to follow that
context.
> - This pull request adds an optional Coordinator workspace with linked
conversations, tasks, documents, and decisions.
> - Each person can enable it in Settings > Experimental and return to
the classic workspace.
> - The benefit is a coherent path from a request to an assigned task
and reviewed work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**
UI, server, shared contracts, and database.

**Problem or motivation**
People need a consistent way to start tasks from agent conversations,
answer questions, review work, and return to the source context.
Decisions and task state must agree across these surfaces.

**Proposed solution**
Add a personal, default-off workspace experiment. Keep one conversation
per agent. Add task proposals, compact task and decision cards,
contextual document panels, and a Needs You queue with search, filters,
sorting, grouping, and history.

**Alternatives considered**
Replacing the classic workspace for everyone would remove the opt-out
path. Keeping separate decision state in each surface would create
conflicting answers. This change uses the existing canonical task and
interaction records instead.

**Roadmap alignment**
This supports the existing agent chat, task management, and human review
capabilities. It is an experimental presentation choice. The user
requested this isolated implementation after design review. No Discord
discussion is claimed.

## What Changed

- Add per-person workspace preferences, a default-off setting, and an
additive migration.
- Add Coordinator navigation, pinned destinations, task lists, agent
switching, and contextual panels.
- Link task suggestions and creation to the source conversation. Default
new task ownership to the current agent unless the user specifies
another owner.
- Share pending questions, decision receipts, exact review targets, and
history across tasks, chat, and Needs You.
- Preserve task access, assignment authorization, revision binding, and
required output review gates.
- Add compact document links, relative timestamps, composer controls,
and reduced-motion support for task and decision transitions.
- Add component stories, regression coverage, and capability-map
documentation.

## Verification

- Final head: `4b839aae1e314bd7e8635a766f1d205ff1c03ba6`, based on
master `8bc051245f77a47bee0f8ba45896b8bfa5922e0a`. Verified October 29,
2026 at 00:10 UTC: **MERGEABLE, 56 checks passed, four conditional
skips, no pending or failed checks**. [Current CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40790639688)
passed without a rerun on this head.
- Fresh Greptile **5/5**, zero new comments and zero open review
threads; Superagent passed with no suspicious changes.
[Checks](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/17983/checks).
- Local workspace typecheck/build passed after the latest rebase. The
final account-read patch passed UI typecheck/build and all 12 related
preference/settings tests, including a delayed real-client request
across account changes. Earlier scoped checks cover review
deduplication/replay, decision deep links, cross-surface state, access
boundaries, and migration replay.
- Local database/browser rechecks after the latest rebase were limited
by exhausted macOS shared-memory IDs: `initdb` failed before database
creation. The local run passed 31 UI/snapshot tests and skipped 24
database tests; those skips and the blocked local browser start are not
claimed as passes. The independent Linux CI database and browser checks
passed. No running dev database or host setting was changed.
- Upstream migration 0403 is preserved. Preferences and durable review
retry aliases are generated as replay-safe migrations
`0404_tense_silver_sable.sql` and `0405_harsh_avengers.sql`; five newest
snapshots are retained. Every detected conflict was rebased and pushed
before waiting for CI/review, as requested.
- The PR is unmerged. The active master ruleset still requires
code-owner approval for the changed Paperclip skill; no approval or rule
change was performed.

<details>
<summary>Earlier verification failures, integration history, and
evidence</summary>

These entries preserve prior checkpoints and failures; the current
acceptance result is above.

- Focused UI and server checks from the isolated build are recorded in
the implementation plan.
- Browser checks covered the opt-in shell, navigation, task/document
links, and decision card states. No new live provider trial is claimed
for this handoff.
- Current acceptance head: `4b839aae1e314bd7e8635a766f1d205ff1c03ba6`,
rebased onto master `8bc051245` immediately after its GitHub
review-repair migration took 0403. Preferences are generated as
idempotent `0404_tense_silver_sable.sql`, preserving upstream
SQL/journal/snapshot history and five newest snapshots. GitHub reports
MERGEABLE after the immediate lease-protected push. Scott's updated
instruction is to rebase and push every conflict resolution first,
without waiting for CI or Greptile; verification follows the push.
- The final reviewed feature tree was consolidated for repeatable
single-commit rebases. The complete previous commit history remains
reachable through local recovery ref
`codex/coordinator-recovery-before-rebase-20261028` (resolved snapshot
`0e1bbdf4e`). The actual rebase completed, and its tree hash exactly
matches that resolved snapshot. The force-with-lease required the known
remote head `0e6ef7c44`, protecting against concurrent branch changes.
No PR merge or permission/runner setting change occurred. Fresh
CI/review are in progress for the current head.
- `2001132fa` received Greptile 5/5 with one nonblocking account-switch
read finding. Current head detaches path-coalesced preference GETs and
disables HTTP caching, retaining React Query's account-scoped sharing. A
delayed real-client GET regression proves account B can load its saved
choice before account A responds, and A's late response only updates A's
cache. Preference/settings tests 12/12 and UI typecheck passed; its
review thread is resolved. Fresh current-head CI/reviews are pending.
The prior CI chat shard 3 ended with “The operation was canceled” and no
assertion failure ([job
123171595631](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40789688333/job/123171595631),
`/tmp/pr17983-2001132-chat3.log`); no code/timeout change is attributed
to that cancellation.
- `843e823b4` reached fresh Greptile 5/5 with zero comments/open threads
and Superagent pass. All browser tests including the repaired YAML shard
passed, and 54 checks passed. General server shard 9 ended with “The
operation was canceled” and no failed assertion; its test step was
marked cancelled (job
[123164350893](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40787501761/job/123164350893),
log `/tmp/pr17983-843e-server9.log`). A single unchanged-head rerun was
started after the workflow completed, but master moved while it ran. A
local nested-clone check timed out in its 30-second database-startup
hook and then failed cleanup before the 20 database cases ran; this is
retained as a local verification limit
(`/tmp/pr17983-843e-nested-clone-check.log`), not claimed as a pass or
proof of the CI cancellation cause.
- Following Scott's instruction, the new conflict was rebased and pushed
immediately without waiting for that rerun. Upstream's
`0403_natural_cerise.sql` is preserved; regenerated preferences and
retry-alias migrations are `0404_tense_silver_sable.sql` and
`0405_harsh_avengers.sql`, replay-safe with five newest snapshots
retained. The YAML helper conflict combines upstream's click and header
behavior with the editor-selection guard and injected regression.
Recovery ref `codex/coordinator-recovery-843e823b4` preserves pre-rebase
work. Current head is MERGEABLE. Full workspace typecheck/build passed;
UI and snapshot checks passed 31 tests, but 24 database tests were
skipped by the local support probe, and the local browser server could
not initialize PostgreSQL. A direct disposable `initdb` diagnostic
established the host limitation: `could not create shared memory
segment: No space left on device` (`shmget`, shared-memory IDs
exhausted, not disk space). No dev database or host setting was changed.
Diagnostics: `/tmp/pr17983-2001132-initdb-probe.log`,
`/tmp/pr17983-2001132-db-probe.log`; checks:
`/tmp/pr17983-2001132-tests.log`, `/tmp/pr17983-2001132-browser.log`,
`/tmp/pr17983-2001132-types.log`, `/tmp/pr17983-2001132-build.log`.
These local skipped/blocked checks are not claimed as passes; fresh CI
on independent runners is in progress.
- `d18f683cd` reached fresh Greptile 5/5 with zero comments/open threads
and Superagent pass, but [E2E shard
7](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40785966243/job/123159719925)
failed parsing an Advanced YAML clipboard read beginning with “Skip to
Main Content.” The log is retained at `/tmp/pr17983-d18f-e2e7.log`.
Current head hardens the test helper to verify editor focus and
selection, clear stale clipboard content, and require the YAML header at
the start of a fresh copy before parsing. Saved-state assertions and
timeouts are unchanged. All six Advanced YAML browser journeys passed on
a disposable local instance (41.0s); the exact lost-response journey
also passed with a one-time injected surrounding-page copy, verifying
rejection/reacquisition (17.6s). The precise browser focus/clipboard
timing in CI remains unproven; the observed invalid-read path is now
guarded and deterministically exercised. Logs:
`/tmp/pr17983-yaml-clipboard-scope-browser.log`,
`/tmp/pr17983-yaml-clipboard-injected-browser.log`. Fresh current-head
CI and reviews are pending.
- `19e6dcb0b` passed Superagent and Greptile 5/5, with one nonblocking
deep-link finding. Current head preserves attention links using
`?decisionId=`: the requested pending decision is rendered even beyond
the first 40 cards, focused and scrolled into view, then only that
parameter is consumed so later refreshes do not refocus. Other URL
parameters remain. Needs You tests 10/10 and UI typecheck passed; its
review thread is resolved. The preceding post-rebase regression run
passed 45/45 tests. Fresh current-head CI/reviews are pending.
- `6d772b7cc` reached Greptile 5/5 with zero comments/open threads and
Superagent pass. While 32 checks had passed, master moved and caused a
documentation conflict in `maps/feature-map/onboarding.md`. Rebased
immediately, preserving both onboarding paragraphs. The complete
four-commit branch was pushed as `19e6dcb0b` before waiting on
CI/review, per Scott's instruction. A transient Git index lock
interrupted the first continue; the command sequence briefly pushed
intermediate `34e298c07`, then the completed rebase was immediately
pushed. All feature and security/retry fixes are present; local recovery
ref `codex/coordinator-recovery-6d772b7cc` preserves the pre-rebase
history. The only tree differences from that ref are upstream's two
smoke-test files and the combined documentation paragraph. GitHub
reports MERGEABLE. Fresh current-head verification is in progress;
prior-head review results are not current acceptance.
- `21efa3120` passed Superagent but Greptile scored 4/5 for a valid
retry-key persistence bug: an acknowledged duplicate key could reopen a
resolved review. Current head adds an additive, replay-safe
`0404_light_swarm.sql` migration for indexed, task-scoped aliases from
acknowledged retry keys to the canonical interaction. Alias registration
and retry lookup occur under the existing task lock; payload/actor
mismatch still conflicts, and each canonical review permits at most 100
aliases. Original and acknowledged keys replay the terminal result
rather than creating a new gate. Five newest migration snapshots are
retained. Service/routes tests 165/165 passed; final quality review plus
migration replay/snapshot checks 25/25 passed; server typecheck passed.
The P1 thread is resolved in code; fresh current-head reviews and CI are
pending.
- `69c2c7543` passed 55 checks and Greptile 5/5 with no open Greptile
findings, but Superagent check
[123140675812](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/17983/checks?check_run_id=123140675812)
correctly flagged unbounded pending quality-card creation. Current head
fixes that under the existing task-row lock: equivalent requests with
fresh idempotency keys reuse the pending card; conflicting requests for
an unresolved deliverable return the existing interaction ID; pending
cards are capped at ten per task across all reviewers. Distinct outputs
remain independent, and already-answered items in a partially pending
batch can receive a fresh review. Added real-database concurrency,
cross-card duplicate, partial-answer, and hard-cap regressions. Quality
review 22/22 tests and final server typecheck passed; earlier
service/routes 163/163 tests passed before the final partial-answer
refinement. One added assertion initially expected a service HTTP error,
but duplicate keys are rejected earlier by the existing shared schema;
the assertion now verifies that validation. Fresh current-head
CI/reviews are pending; the action-required security result is not
treated as passed.
- `c9c575e5f` completed all 56 checks successfully with four conditional
skips, Greptile 5/5, and Superagent pass. Its two P2 review findings are
fixed in the current head: independently bound quality approvals now
each remain visible in attention; changing/clearing URL-backed
assignee/status filters updates the URL and survives task navigation.
Both review threads are resolved. Regression evidence: attention service
34/34 tests passed, CoordinatorTasks 20/20 passed, UI and server
typechecks and the full workspace build passed on `69c2c7543`. The first
new UI test run caught an assertion racing React Router's transition;
waiting for the navigation before asserting passes without weakening the
navigation/remount checks. These older-head green checks are not claimed
for the new fix commit.
- Preceding `0e6ef7c44` completed all 56 checks successfully with four
conditional skips, fresh Greptile 5/5 and no open findings, and passed
Superagent. A fifth migration-metadata collision arrived before the
final Runner job finished. Those green results are preserved as
prior-head evidence, not current acceptance.
- Previous fully verified migration head:
`0e6ef7c44696a377f35e69521b93587576374bd0`, integrating master
`f8226b051` after the fourth migration-number collision. Master added
terminal GitHub-response migration 0401 while the final native check
ran; upstream 0401 SQL/journal/snapshot is preserved unchanged, and
preferences are generated as idempotent `0402_yielding_blink.sql` on
top. Exactly the five newest snapshots remain. GitHub reports MERGEABLE
after the push. All 1,155 relevant
migration/review/interaction/native-execution/remote-assets tests,
workspace typecheck/build, migration guards and whitespace checks pass.
Fresh exact-head CI/Greptile/Superagent are pending.
- Immediately preceding head `36c67cf03` completed all 56 checks
successfully with four conditional skips, fresh Greptile 5/5 and no open
findings, plus passed Superagent security. No retry was needed for that
head's CI. Master advanced and introduced only a migration-metadata
conflict while its final native check ran, so that green result does not
establish acceptance of the current integration. Four consecutive
collisions (0398, 0399, 0400, 0401) during verification are retained as
concrete integration churn; a brief pause of competing migration merges
was requested, without assuming it happened or changing any repo
setting. The PR has not been merged.
- Prior fully verified head: `36c67cf03`, on the clean `30059c0ed`
integration of master `efd65c112`. The last Greptile P2 is fixed: Needs
attention retains the participant-agent scope through authoritative
server membership queries for each pending task, including historical
participation when another agent currently owns the task. It does not
approximate participation with current assignment or enumerate every
company task. The actual view-switch regression and all 31 focused
task/routing/collection tests, UI typecheck/build, token gates and
whitespace checks pass. Greptile completed a fresh 5/5 review on this
exact head (review 19) with zero new comments and no open review
threads. CI and Superagent remain in progress; no current-head CI
failure has been reported.
- Head `30059c0ed` received Greptile 5/5 with that one nonblocking
participant finding, now fixed. Superagent passed that head.
Current-base integration restored the ephemeral RunsOn fleet after a
superseded workflow retained queued aggregate jobs: normal cancellation
was insufficient; the single force-cancel request was interrupted but
readback confirmed that obsolete run cancelled and current CI began on
the trusted fleet. No cancellation retry or runner/security/workflow
changes were made. Its partial CI was superseded by the necessary
participant fix and is not current acceptance.
- Previous compatibility/base-sync head:
`30059c0ededc0eab4e04e8299a884f36db8b292f`, integrating master
`efd65c112` and the Inbox/workspace compatibility fixes. GitHub reports
MERGEABLE after the push. Coordinator keeps Inbox standalone under More
without rewriting the instance's Combined Inbox preference; opting out
restores that preference. Saved merged-Inbox URLs resolve to their
original owner, task status presets remain usable, and canonical
repeated `workspace` parameters retain scoped, deduplicated pagination
(including Needs attention). All 192 broader
routing/Inbox/sidebar/privacy/review tests and the final 16 task-page
tests pass, as do workspace typecheck/build, token gates and whitespace
checks. The two review threads are resolved. Fresh exact-head CI,
Greptile and Superagent results are pending.
- The preceding `d5b9be5bd` remained mergeable but its CI routing gate
intentionally fell back to GitHub-hosted runners: “stacked base merge
commit does not contain the current base branch.” All 45 downstream jobs
stayed queued. Current master was merged cleanly to refresh the pinned
base; no runner/security settings or workflow logic were changed.
Greptile scored that preceding head 4/5 with the two compatibility
findings fixed here. Its automatic Superagent scan was inconclusive at
checkout; the documented retry was still pending when superseded. Those
results do not establish acceptance of this current head.
- Previous approval/migration head:
`d5b9be5bd3b8d6b0437e42bf48138377f34fa67d`, integrating master
`ba5bba86d` and the stale-output approval correction. GitHub reports
MERGEABLE after the push. The fresh P1 finding is fixed: every submitted
item now validates and locks its bound output inside the resolution
transaction, whether or not it carries a required-quality-review
binding. Real database regressions verify that an advanced document
revision or deleted attachment refuses the entire batch without
recording approvals, and current ordinary output reviews still resolve.
All 272 combined migration/review/interaction tests pass; workspace
typecheck/build passed. Fresh exact-head Greptile and CI are pending.
The automatic Superagent scan ended inconclusive at checkout; one
documented on-demand retry is pending. These are explicit verification
limits, not passed security results. The P1 thread is resolved.
- Master consumed the next migration slot three times during this
verification pass: confirmation recovery took 0398, continuation
recovery took 0399, and GitHub acknowledgement recovery took 0400. Each
upstream SQL/journal/snapshot is preserved unchanged. Preferences are
now generated as idempotent `0401_white_lenny_balinger.sql` from
upstream 0400; exactly five snapshots remain, and replay coverage
locates this migration by table content. This is recorded concurrent
integration churn, not a claim that older green results apply to the
latest base.
- Head `ed3b68da9` fixed the two history/URL findings with 26 focused
regression tests, server/UI typechecks, workspace build and token gates
passing. Greptile then scored that head 4/5 with the stale-output P1
corrected in the current head. Its partial CI is superseded, not counted
as current acceptance.
- Previous filter-fix head: `ed3b68da9`, based on the `8458d39d9` merge
of master `063cfd438`. The two fresh Greptile findings are fixed:
history outcome filters now match recorded per-item verdicts in SQL
before pagination (mixed reviews remain in both applicable outcomes),
and same-page URL assignee changes/back/forward navigation update that
filter without clearing independent filters. All 26 focused
database/navigation/collection tests, server/UI typechecks, workspace
build, token gates and whitespace checks pass. The two review threads
are resolved. Fresh exact-head CI, Greptile and Superagent results are
pending.
- The `8458d39d9` migration integration also passed all 328 targeted
migration/interaction/confirmation tests, workspace typecheck/build and
Superagent security scan. Greptile scored that head 4/5 with the two
functional gaps fixed in the current head; those prior-head checks are
not current acceptance.
- Migration integration head:
`8458d39d9721f4cb312c2390070a0609f8cddd1a`, integrating master
`063cfd43813cabf18417605fb9eefb9aacf95c8d`. GitHub reports MERGEABLE
after the push. Master advanced twice during this conflict-resolution
pass: first its confirmation-recovery migration took 0398, then its
continuation-recovery migration took 0399. Both upstream migrations and
journal entries remain unchanged; Coordinator preferences are now
generated as idempotent `0400_sad_guardian.sql` from upstream's latest
snapshot. Exactly the five newest snapshots remain. The replay
regression now locates the table migration by content instead of
hardcoding a renumbered filename.
- All 328 targeted question/review/confirmation/migration tests passed
again after the second merge. Workspace typecheck/build and fresh
exact-head CI/reviews are in progress. The preceding `0c46f46d6` passed
workspace typecheck/build and Superagent security scan, but was
superseded because master consumed migration 0399 while those checks
ran. That prior-head result is not acceptance of the current head. No
production settings or runner/security permissions were changed, and the
PR has not been merged.
- Previous integration head: `0c46f46d6f2b23417ab872ce3cb6ff2673647287`,
integrating master `287b04d72f1b9fca1412e05435c75b8302ba0710`. GitHub
reports MERGEABLE after the push. The renewed conflicts were
`0398_snapshot.json`, `_journal.json`, and the top imports in
`issue-thread-interactions.ts`. Upstream's `0398` confirmation-recovery
index and journal history are preserved unchanged; Coordinator
preferences were regenerated as idempotent `0399_bouncy_miek.sql`, with
replay coverage updated and exactly the five newest snapshots retained.
Both terminal confirmation notifications and Coordinator task
assignment/required review behavior are preserved.
- All 328 targeted interaction/review/confirmation/migration tests pass,
as do workspace typecheck, map validation and whitespace checks. The
workspace build and fresh exact-head CI/Greptile/Superagent checks are
pending. The first migration-generation attempt hit the sandbox's local
IPC restriction before generating files; the unchanged authorized local
generation completed successfully. Prior-head green checks below do not
establish acceptance of this merge.
- Previous acceptance head: `8b7dcf739ed15afc51351fdfa0e0e5fbc75ab788`,
with master `1aa3a21ac` integrated and GitHub reporting MERGEABLE.
Greptile completed a fresh 5/5 review on this exact head with zero new
actionable findings and no open review threads. The [fresh CI
workflow](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40752864319)
completed SUCCESS on attempt 2 at 19:40:08 UTC, including all eight E2E
shards. Final completed check set: 55 succeeded, four conditional checks
skipped, zero pending/queued/running checks, and one
neutral/inconclusive Superagent scan. The auxiliary commitperclip review
and isolated native Runner compilation/cache-reuse check both passed.
This is not a claim that Superagent produced a passed security verdict.
GitHub still reports MERGEABLE against current master
`60b8089a44b4eaa37e627adbfdf2f130bda13335`.
- Current-head E2E: all eight shards and the aggregate passed, including
the previously failing YAML browser journey. Serialized server shard 9/9
failed: the protected YAML projection test exceeded its original
15-second timeout; its late update request then reached the next test's
reset mock (the captured payload is the prior test's model/label
update). All 88 tests in that exact unchanged file passed locally in
38.03 seconds, with no timeout or assertion changes. The original
slow-request cause remains unproven. CI failure log:
`/tmp/pr17983-8b7-serialized9.log`; local recovery:
`/tmp/pr17983-adapter-yaml-repro.log`. The single bounded unchanged
shard rerun passed, and the workflow completed SUCCESS. Rerun log:
`/tmp/pr17983-8b7-serialized9-rerun.log`. The initial failure is
retained; a passing retry does not establish its original slow-request
cause.
- Greptile scored preceding head `4873704be` 5/5 with one valid P2:
opened task decision records missed company-scoped live invalidation.
The current head uses the existing company decision prefix for
resolution and effect-completion events, and resets private record
payloads on access changes. Its thread is resolved. All 107 focused
record/live-update tests, UI typecheck/build, token checks and
whitespace checks pass.
- CI on `4873704be` failed E2E shard 7/8 in the Advanced YAML
lost-creation-response journey: its clipboard helper selected page text
starting with “Skip to Main Content” instead of YAML. The exact
unchanged journey passed in a disposable local browser instance (1 test,
17.1 seconds). No assertion, timeout or production behavior was
weakened; the original failure cause remains unproven. Failure log:
`/tmp/pr17983-487-e2e7.log`; local check:
`/tmp/pr17983-agent-yaml-repro.log`. The full unchanged Advanced YAML
browser suite also passed locally (6 tests, 37.8 seconds). Fresh
current-head CI subsequently passed this journey and all other E2E
shards.
- Both the automatic and one supported on-demand Superagent scan on
`4873704be` ended neutral/inconclusive: “Pinned PR scan merge-base
checkout failed or timed out.” These do not count as a passed security
verdict. The current head's automatic scan and one documented on-demand
retry also returned the identical neutral checkout failure, with zero
annotations or further diagnostics. This is an external scanner blocker,
not a passed security verdict. No security settings or permissions were
changed.
- Recorded decision links now render and focus the full source-task
record in both Classic and Coordinator, including recorded choice,
submitted inputs, and the existing effect-result resolver. Fresh
terminal records take precedence over older open-decision cache entries.
Context and account checks keep mismatched or inaccessible records out
of the DOM; no decision-history tab was added to tasks or chat. The
shared company live-run feed now drives live-only filtering, including
ended runs and terminal tasks with stale run entries. All 213 focused
tests, UI typecheck/build, token and whitespace checks pass; the final
focus follow-up passed all 188 task-detail tests and UI typecheck. The
first new navigation test failed because its test host omitted company
context; the host was corrected before the passing run.
- Previous integration head: `375c5e89516705050d94bab99336212841b2e6e1`
merges master `1aa3a21ac` after four additional upstream commits. The
sole conflict was competing imports in `server/src/services/issues.ts`;
both quality-review policy and inbound wake-notice notifications are
preserved. The PR-specific review import now sits beside
execution-policy imports instead of the frequently changing first line.
GitHub mergeability is rechecked after the push.
- On the combined master tree, workspace typecheck/build, all 153
affected UI tests, map validation, and whitespace checks pass. Four
server suites passed 77 tests; the fifth suite's module-import hook
timed out while broad verification was running. Its unchanged isolated
run passed all 41 tests in 7.2 seconds with the original timeout. This
records recovery without claiming the original import-timeout cause is
proven. CI on `375c5e895` passed every substantive job, including all
eight E2E shards and Superagent; Greptile found the two functional gaps
fixed in the current head. A short-lived `669d90876` commit added the
main fixes before the focused navigation follow-up.
- Immediately preceding head `9d9737b49` completed all 56 checks
successfully with four conditional skips, Greptile 5/5 and no open
findings, plus a successful Superagent scan. The signoff E2E shard
passed on its single accepted rerun; its initial cancellation/timing
failure is retained below. Master moved again while those checks ran,
requiring this final integration rather than treating the prior head's
green result as current acceptance.
- Previous head `9d9737b496911a6054d0ea22d1b42b28b115e9ab` includes
master `d30c8f42b842327ee1c18c41a2efd6ba623da5cd`; that head was
subsequently conflicted by moving master. The master merge preserved
durable account-bound writes and Coordinator UX. Workspace
typecheck/build, 416 focused UI tests, and 142 affected comment-route
tests passed. A stable full UI run on preceding head `938ad1665` passed
all 9,833 tests across 836 files; its final full workspace build also
passed.
- Greptile found nested proposal project inheritance and Classic
bound-revision links on `91be74952`. Both were fixed with 142
interaction-route tests, 113 focused UI tests, and UI/server typechecks.
Its next review identified a valid draft-preservation bug in the new
Classic loading UI. Head `9d9737b49` keeps loading/error notices outside
editors and annotations while preserving dirty drafts; 115 focused
review UI tests pass, including pending/failed revision loads and
continued draft editing. All related threads are resolved. Greptile
completed a fresh 5/5 review of
`9d9737b496911a6054d0ea22d1b42b28b115e9ab` with no open findings.
- CI on `938ad1665` exposed an integration regression with the newly
merged durable startup saves: the personal preference gate blocked the
task page before its first session lookup. The guarded title editor now
mounts while that lookup is pending, with presentation-specific tools
still gated. All 216 affected component tests pass. The unchanged
five-test `disconnect-write-recovery.spec.ts` browser suite passes
against a newly launched disposable local-trusted PostgreSQL instance on
port 33219, including the exact failed startup-save journey. No live
provider, hosted authentication or production proof is claimed. The
helper-owned test server exited and the port has no listener. UI
typecheck, built-browser assets, token and whitespace checks pass.
- Initial durable-write merge tests found duplicate imports and unscoped
draft fixtures, fixed before 416 focused tests passed. A sandbox
typecheck could not create its IPC socket; the supported rerun passed.
The first revision-link test used a wrong Return to latest button
assertion, corrected before the 113-test pass. The startup E2E
reproduction initially still failed because an outer shell gate also
blocked the page; the subsequent fix passed all five cases without
changing the test or its timeouts. A focused loading-header assertion
initially used an incorrect fixture title; correcting it preceded the
216-test pass. These failures remain recorded.
- Earlier routing gates fell back to GitHub-hosted runners while master
was moving or conflicted. Superseded queued runs were cancelled, then
the `938ad1665` routing gate explicitly selected the ephemeral RunsOn
fleet. Its CI actively executed and completed most tests; only the
diagnosed startup E2E shard and aggregate failed, alongside the valid
Greptile finding. Auxiliary GitHub-hosted workflows also completed
successfully on earlier heads, so queueing alone is not an
administrative blocker. Fresh [CI on
`9d9737b49`](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40744012678)
is the acceptance target; the previously failing startup E2E shard now
passes. A different signoff E2E shard failed during executor
resubmission when its fixture run was cancelled as
`issue_continuation_waiting_on_review`. The exact unchanged journey
passed locally (1 test, 46 seconds), and the preceding head with
identical server/signoff code passed that CI shard. This supports a
bounded rerun but does not establish the timing failure's root cause.
After the workflow finished, GitHub accepted one rerun of that failed
shard and its dependent aggregate; both passed, completing all checks on
that head. The failure log is retained at `/tmp/pr17983-9d9737-e2e7.log`
and the local reproduction at `/tmp/pr17983-signoff-repro.log`. No
assertion or timeout was weakened.
- On the first merge, full workspace typecheck/build, all 9,622 UI
tests, 267 tests across seven affected server suites, two migration
checks, map validation, token gates, and the PR diff whitespace check
passed. Greptile then found duplicate local task-search filtering and
lost completed item-review detail. Both are fixed, with 42 passing
focused UI tests and passing UI typecheck/build.
- A subsequent Greptile review found attachment confirmations without
working links and mobile history without a visible host. Confirmation
layouts now derive the authenticated immutable-content endpoint from the
attachment ID, and Needs You uses the existing full-screen mobile sheet.
All 119 focused tests pass, including missing/stale display URLs, both
review layouts, and both mobile history entry buttons. UI
typecheck/build and token checks pass. Full workspace typecheck/build
also pass after the second master merge.
- Greptile gave head 22f69c304 a 5/5 score with one non-blocking
desktop-history reopening finding. Head 6dd52b6d3 fixed it, passed all
nine history tests, UI typecheck/build, token gates, and the full
9,679-test UI suite, then received a fresh 5/5 review with zero open
findings. These are prior-head results; review on the master-sync commit
is pending.
- The chat and workspace CI jobs on head 22f69c304 were interrupted by
runner shutdown signals and cancellation before completing their tests.
Their logs do not report failing assertions. Those interrupted jobs are
not claimed as passes. The new head starts fresh runs.
- The first merge CI had a Slack session-sync idle assertion fail after
an unexpected database read. Its exact isolated reproduction passes, and
the chat CI shard passed on head 618c5a2a3. The original failure's cause
remains undetermined. The broader local reproduction, run concurrently
with full verification, instead encountered 21 timeout failures across
its two test chunks; it is not claimed as a passing full local server
run. A concurrent local UI run had eight failures (seven timeouts and
one delayed autosave assertion). The complete UI run on the final head
passed all 9,679 tests across 830 files with two workers; no test
timeout or assertion was weakened. This establishes recovery without
claiming that every earlier timeout's cause has been proved. An earlier
intermediate UI run also overlapped the second master merge and failed
the newly added Advanced-sidebar expectation, so it is not treated as
stable-tree evidence. The newly merged UI dependencies initially
required refreshing the local install from the upstream package
manifest; the generated local lockfile update is not committed, per
repository policy.
- Superagent returned neutral/inconclusive scans on the preceding heads
because its pinned merge-base checkout failed or timed out. The
available retry endpoint returned 404. These are not successful security
verdicts. The fresh scan on `91be74952` passed (PR scan passed; no
suspicious PR changes detected). The `938ad1665` scan again returned
neutral/inconclusive with the same pinned merge-base checkout error; the
check-suite rerun endpoint returned 404. The fresh `9d9737b49` scan
completed successfully at 18:22 UTC with no suspicious changes detected.
Earlier neutral scans are not counted as successful security verdicts.
- Prior head `57902152ac3218096fca669d33ff18400a2a86ae` passed 9,618 UI
tests across 826 files, received Greptile 5/5 with no open findings, and
completed CI with 56 passes and four conditional skips. These are
historical results, not acceptance of the latest merge commit.
- The first full build found generated capability-contract drift. The
generated outputs were refreshed. Initial sandbox runs could not open
local IPC sockets; verification was rerun with local test access.
- Current master was merged. The workspace preference migration was
regenerated after the existing migration history.
- The UI run first found two outdated expectations: early custom-answer
validation and the document access error copy. Both were corrected, and
the full UI suite then passed.
- The local server run found three failures in unchanged tests. The Muse
test passes with Python 3.13 instead of the host's Python 3.9. The two
workspace tests pass when their test process uses the expected master
default branch. These environment settings do not change application
behavior or global machine settings. The unsharded server run was
stopped after those reproductions; CI supplies the full sharded server
result. No successful full local server run is claimed.
- Skill inventory generation needs an external eval checkout, which is
absent locally. The existing generator functions refreshed only the live
skill inventory and its derived files. The checked-in eval inventory was
preserved. The inventory validation gate passes.
- Greptile found a dropped MCP review requirement, missing per-item
output links, generic item-review summaries, and a history-refresh
failure. The fixes have 32 passing database-backed server tests and
focused rendered-card tests. A follow-up partial-review finding was
corrected by forwarding the canonical mutation status before settling
the card. Attachments open through the authenticated immutable-content
route in both card layouts. The final focused UI set has 117 passing
tests, including these regressions.
- Both browser shards that first failed expected a disabled-chat
message. The copy was restored, and those shards passed in CI on the
next commit. The two journeys also passed locally. One local attempt
first timed out before feature disable while waiting for the provider's
initial message; its isolated reproduction passed. That earlier timing
failure remains recorded and is not presented as an explained
infrastructure failure.
- Serialized server shard 9 first failed during pnpm setup with
ECONNRESET, before dependencies or tests ran. Its single rerun passed
setup and all tests. The build and production runtime boot passed on the
first attempt, but that run's public-install step timed out during Pi
setup. The single build-job rerun passed compilation, runtime boot, and
clean public-install verification. Those setup scripts are unchanged by
this PR. The successful retry establishes recovery; the earlier Pi
timeout's underlying cause remains undetermined. The aggregate CI gate
is green: [workflow
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40637789695).

</details>

## Risks

- This touches shared task, interaction, and completion paths.
Regression tests must cover classic and experimental behavior,
authorization, duplicate answers, and stale review targets.
- The additive preference table must migrate before the setting is used.
The setting defaults off.
- The experiment changes navigation and message presentation. Canonical
task and document records remain the source of truth.
- The initial task brief and saved plan can repeat information. This
change fixes chronology; a broader redundancy policy remains a design
decision.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 Codex with reasoning and tool-assisted code editing, tests,
and browser verification. Earlier iterations used Codex models in this
task; their exact model IDs are not available in the current context.

DottaandPaperclip 1aa3a21ac4 fix(server): wake inbound queue notices from committed changes (#17647)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Chat users receive a notice when accepted input waits for execution.
> - Periodic publication maintenance scans those receipts even when
nothing changes.
> - Admission, cancellation, source removal, and authority changes
already define when a notice can change.
> - Existing action, receipt, publication, and provider-link rows
preserve that work across restart.
> - This PR gives ordinary inbound queue notices a commit-driven owner
using the shared scheduler.
> - Settled notices stop querying while unfinished batches and
contention retain recovery.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

This ordinary inbound-notice slice follows merged #17895 and now targets
master. Related extraction: #16187. Failed-run retry notice projection
remains a separate following slice (#17649); its two shared
receipt-writer notifications move forward here because ordinary input
can attach to those receipt owners.

**What happened?**

Publication maintenance scans accepted input to project queued,
not-started, and removed-source notices. Empty scans keep touching the
database. Its cursor also loses PostgreSQL timestamp precision, so a
full page of suppressed candidates can repeat.

**Expected behavior**

Committed changes should wake the notice owner. The worker should
reconstruct saved candidates after restart and stop scanning when
settled. It must retain a wake across drain, failed selection,
contention, and a commit during reconciliation.

**Steps to reproduce**

Start an otherwise idle instance with chat history. Observe the ordinary
inbound notice scan in periodic publication maintenance. For the cursor
defect, retain a full page of denied candidates with microsecond
timestamps before an eligible notice.

## What Changed

- Register an ordinary inbound-notice owner with the existing delivery
coordinator and scheduler. Bound each pass to 100 candidates, preserve
precise continuation cursors and earlier-page contention, and reset
scoped discovery after committed changes.
- Notify from real admission, failed action settlement, source removal,
task/tree/agent/budget/company cancellation, signed Slack Stop, and
deferred queue cancellation/failure. Preserve pending-status and
absent-run guards so concurrent promotion wins.
- Cover task privacy/grants, project membership/visibility and current
authority through their persistence owners. Keep receipt ownership,
current authorization, provider policy and closed notice text in the
existing chat service.
- Cover shared retry-owned receipts through the existing durable
authorization callback and a notifying transaction around conditional
denial retirement. These small producer fixes already exist in #17649;
no per-caller recovery wrappers are added. Retain its matching
budget-refusal fixture correction.
- Remove only ordinary notices from periodic maintenance. Preserve the
separate failed-retry pass at 50 and keep the explicit combined manual
API.
- Preserve timestamp precision, fairness, restart, drain/resume,
rollback and quiet behavior. Add two real producer transaction
regressions and update the audit. Add no storage or scheduler
infrastructure.

## Verification

Current publication head: `41f7e2c9e351efa6cfa5ef699c0e69df7425012b`,
after normal merge of master `d30c8f42b842327ee1c18c41a2efd6ba623da5cd`
(#17960). The integration preserves both complete added/removed patches,
all non-overlap upstream blobs/deletions, and task-before-comment lock
order before the notice source lock/intent. Full binary identity is not
claimed for the overlapping files. The final follow-up changes
acceptance documentation only.

- **202 distinct combined-master cases pass on
`1720b685d9d5fb9cb4377223fdaa0a9fae2aff9c`:** 148 across the real
PostgreSQL receipt concurrency and two comment route suites, plus 54
notice/FIFO/producer cases (1,598 skipped). Current server
typechecking/build and module boundaries pass; all 21 owned source/test
hashes are unchanged after the documentation follow-up.
- The earlier CI voice-reconstruction quiet assertion failed once after
105 fetches. All 15 voice lifecycle cases pass unchanged locally; no
assertions or production code were relaxed and no CI retry was used. The
original failure remains in the audit, and current-head full CI must
pass.
- **Earlier restoration repair (head
`28c898e93504318056d7a6ab2bbc5eafa6b639ae`): 126 distinct selected cases
pass (54 ordinary-notice/producer cases with 1,598 skipped, plus 72
separate Retry/budget cases with 1,580 skipped).** Fix the blocking
[restored input stays
silent](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/17647#discussion_r4404007181)
finding. A failed Retry's earlier receipt wake can drain before
`releaseUnadmittedTaskRetryInput` restores ordinary receipts in a later
transaction. The restoring transaction now awaits the existing
company/task notification before its guarded write.
- The new causal regression builds a durable unadmitted failed-Retry
owner, uses the real input-claim owner, consumes an earlier committed
wake, and proves two minutes of worker quiet with no notice. The real
release transaction then restores the ordinary row, emits intent/commit
settlement, and reactivates the coordinator to create its queued notice.
It fails before the hook with the restored row visible but no intent.
This is real PostgreSQL producer/consumer boundary proof with seeded
Retry-refusal state; the separate compatibility selection exercises
existing supported GitHub Retry flows. It is not a claimed complete
public-request failure walkthrough.

- **Earlier discovery-repair acceptance (revision
`4a713edfa06b9d3dcc0e81e900006fbdb973b2d9`): 267 distinct selected cases
pass:** 142 complete cancellation/app/admission consumer cases, 53
ordinary-notice cases, and 72 separate retry/budget cases. The
selections skip 1,598 and 1,579 other cases. The final master
integration leaves this complete patch byte-identical; the new master
paths concern provider workspace/session reuse and E2E reports.
- Fix the valid P2 [discovery rereads denied
history](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/17647#discussion_r4386889825),
despite the previous head's 5/5 summary. Task hints now need zero
discovery SQL; company/startup discovery returns DISTINCT company/task
identifiers with one query. Bounded projection still checks current
authority and candidates. Three real database regressions with 250
denied actions and a second company fail before the fix and pass
afterward, checking actual query and returned-row counts. Broad SQL may
still inspect candidate history; no constant database-cost claim is
made.
- Both new producer tests fail before their fixes and pass afterward.
One observes intent before a callback-owned receipt write and settlement
after outer commit. The other uses real heartbeat admission/recovery and
a PostgreSQL row lock to prove exact company/task intent exists before
conditional denial retirement; the outside connection still sees
deferred status until commit.
- The reader can select a retry-owned deferred receipt for later
ordinary input, and receipt resolution follows its owner. Disabling
coalescing on the retry's own request does not exclude that later path.
The two transferred notifications close the actual writer gaps; current
authorization remains enforced by existing consumers. This is
producer/transaction proof, not a claimed complete mixed-ingress
walkthrough.
- The moved callback exposes an old test mock that authorized against
the root DB. The existing #17649 fixture correction authorizes and
writes in one transaction; original requester, comment, skipped-status
and budget assertions remain. Both the initial invalid lock fixture and
the corrected missing-intent failures are preserved in the audit.
- Updated shared dependency build, server typechecking/build and
module-boundary checks pass. Because master also changed agent
configuration, upgrade admission and runner contracts, the same 264
cases were rerun on combined revision
`875a6ee8d211cba7f0499aace7fcea7f6880c4a2` with new isolated databases.
Repeated checks are not 528 different tests. Tests under `src/__tests__`
were executed separately from production typechecking.
- [Current acceptance and preserved failure
ledger](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/41f7e2c9e351efa6cfa5ef699c0e69df7425012b/doc/plans/2026-10-25-inbound-wake-notices-sleep-audit.md#shared-retry-receipt-producer-gap-resolved-october-28)
records current scope, exact commands, actual fixtures, source hashes
and remaining limits. Earlier baseline/full-suite counts retain their
original revision scope.
- Server typechecking/build and module boundaries pass after the current
restoration hook. The earlier combined-master compilation at
`661f2f6da8c6c22cdcc25edccd57502ee6fa8c4b` retains its original scope.
- **Current exact-head CI is green and Greptile is 5/5.** The old head's
review error is not a pass. No full local repository matrix, live
provider tenant, external alarm, physical suspension or savings claim is
made. Following notice duties retain their separate owners.

### Final merge verification

- Reviewed PR head remains `41f7e2c9e351efa6cfa5ef699c0e69df7425012b`:
exact-head Greptile 5/5, all 55 check contexts clean, no unresolved
review threads, and no Ponytail verdict present.
- One Runner shard initially failed descriptor suspension and a
five-second OpenCode fixture deadline. The same package passed on the
preceding head. The first local attempt was invalid because required
Rust fixture binaries were absent; after building them, all eight
relevant cases pass with unchanged timeouts. One failed-job retry then
passes 1,956 cases (four skipped). No source/assertion/time-budget
change or second CI retry was used.
- Current master `0e365768f032a472807b5720da8431f92d2f07ce` adds manual
monitor and task-drain fixes. Its routes file overlaps but merges
cleanly. Local normal-merge validation commit
`2720b79c769cb609ad4d392512331e67b910ff3f` preserves both complete
added/removed patches and every unrelated master blob/deletion. This is
not raw binary identity for overlapping files.
- **156 distinct cases pass on that exact combined tree:** all 102
monitor/drain/policy cases plus 54 notice cases (1,598 skipped). Types
and build pass. An initial competing-cold-check run failed setup hooks
(38 passed, two hook failures, 62 skipped); the same four suites pass
alone with all original hook/test timeouts and assertions intact. The
failed run remains recorded, not counted as full acceptance.
- This merge proof changes no published source or review head. The
protected pinned-head merge guard recomputes both patches and requires
the exact tested master/tree/head, successful validation receipts and
unchanged live merge gates. Previous acceptance counts retain their
original revision scope; no local full-repository or deployed-sleep
claim is made.

Master then advanced to `75754ffb7af2b7ee7dce1e915a145faa82a8fb2a` with
#17976 (five UI/e2e/map files only). The entire `server` and `packages`
trees are identical to the validated composition. Both complete patches
and all newly landed UI files are preserved in the final clean merge
tree; the protected gate checks these exact source-root hashes and
changed paths. No additional UI-test result is claimed.

## Risks

- Missing a supported producer could delay a notice until restart. Tests
cover real service and API producers; durable rows remain authoritative.
Notifications cover supported application writers in the owning process,
not arbitrary external SQL writers.
- Privacy invalidation can affect descendants, so those changes use
company scope. Ordinary admission and publication changes use task
scope. Settled history causes no recurring scan.
- Provider output remains subject to current authority and receipt
ownership. A cancelled request without a visible queued notice does not
acquire a new failure message.
- This establishes worker quiet, not host or database suspension. Cloud
alarms and conservative sleep gates do not change. Other maintenance
remains in place.
- Remaining stacked slices still need their own integration, review, and
CI. This slice merges only under the user’s explicit campaign
authorization after current-head gates pass.

DottaandPaperclip 21137db805 fix: make Check now work for retained monitors on blocked tasks (#18061)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets people manage agents and inspect their work.
> - Task monitors schedule checks of work that is still pending.
> - A task can retain a monitor after it becomes blocked.
> - The UI still offered Check now, but the server rejected the task
status.
> - The UI also claimed that an automatic check would run on the next
tick.
> - This change admits an explicit human check through the normal
execution gates and shows that automatic checks are paused.
> - People can request the check without changing task status, and
skipped checks no longer report success.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A blocked task with a retained monitor showed Check now and an overdue
countdown. Clicking the button failed because manual checks required an
in-progress or in-review task. The endpoint also returned success when
admission skipped a check.

**Expected behavior**

A human can request one check through normal admission. Automatic checks
stay paused while the task is blocked. A check that cannot start reports
a conflict.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Schedule a monitor on an agent-owned task.
2. Let the task become blocked while it retains the schedule.
3. Open the task and click Check now.

Related: #14909 addresses scheduled-retry promotion. This PR addresses
retained task monitors.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Base: 7f10cc0585.

## What Changed

- Allow a human to check a retained monitor on a blocked task. Keep
agent and automatic checks limited to active task statuses.
- Keep the existing admission path and status guard. Do not change task
status to start a check.
- Return 409 when admission skips the check. Preserve the schedule when
a dependency or recovery hold prevents dispatch. Keep a successful
result when a new schedule replaces the consumed schedule after
admission.
- Show Automatic checks paused in the banner, composer strip and
properties. Hide Check now on backlog and todo tasks. Provider-quota
recovery stays paused on blocked tasks because it uses a direct retry
path; its monitor is retained until the task resumes.
- Add database, process, route and UI regression coverage, a Storybook
state, API metadata, and behavior documentation.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed.
- `pnpm build` passed.
- Server scheduling, process admission and route suites: 94 tests
passed.
- UI monitor, properties and time-formatting suites: 142 tests passed.
- Additional admission checks passed: an explicit check starts a process
on a blocked task; an unresolved dependency prevents dispatch and
preserves the monitor.
- Token gates, map checks, Storybook catalog checks and 30 map/catalog
tests passed.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` attempt reported 1 timeout among 1,621
chat integration tests: “keeps an ambiguous github text part blocked
across restart and retries only that part and its tail” exceeded 15
seconds. The exact case passed in isolation on the final head (1 passed,
1,620 skipped). The remaining full-run groups were stopped to isolate
that failure. This does not establish a full local pass or explain the
initial timeout. Final-head CI is green, including the full chat lanes
and the successful single server-shard retry.
- Browser inspection passed for the blocked-task banner, composer strip
and properties row. Clicking Check now set both visible buttons to
disabled Checking state. The preview uses isolated fixtures.
- CI server shard 7/12 failed one decision-expiry deadline assertion.
The entire unchanged decision-expiry suite passed locally on the final
head (20/20). The single retry of that shard passed after the first
workflow attempt completed. The initial failure remains recorded here.
Neither that test nor its production path changed before retry; the
cause is not established by a passing retry.
- Greptile reviewed final head ed936f7433
at 5/5. Both prior review threads are resolved.
- The first CI chat job stopped after its runner received a shutdown
signal. The final head completed a fresh CI run.
- The process fixture uses a local no-op adapter. It proves admission
and execution, not a live provider's response. The Storybook state
simulates dispatch.

## Risks

- An explicit human check can start work on a blocked task with no
unresolved execution gate. This is intentional. Dependencies, recovery,
native finalization, ownership, pause and budgets retain their existing
checks.
- Skipped manual checks now return 409 instead of 200. The UI already
displays API errors in context.
- No schema change or migration.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6. The session does not expose a more
specific served model ID or context-window size. Used repository tools,
code execution, and browser inspection.

d30c8f42b8 feat(ui): keep writes durable through temporary disconnects (#17960)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/123/changes/paperclip/123
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - People save tasks, write documents, make decisions and send board
messages.
> - A disconnect can hide a response after the server accepts a write.
> - Recovery must keep the original account, task and request key.
> - The merged connection foundation in #15754 handles reads and shared
outage state.
> - This change adds bounded write recovery and explicit actions when
recovery stops.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Temporary failures could lose edits, report accepted writes as failures,
or require people to copy and send input again. A retry could target a
newly selected task or account. Restoring attachments could create a
second task.

**Expected behavior**

Keep the draft, its owner and its target. Retry only operations with a
server contract that prevents duplicate writes. Verify uncertain
results. Show conflicts and permanent failures, with an explicit resend
or cancel action.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Save a task title during an outage, then open another task before
recovery.
2. Restore a task creation that needs files, selecting those files in
another order.
3. Lose a document or decision response, then interrupt the verification
read.
4. Switch accounts while a create, upload or connected-channel
publication is pending.
5. Type and erase a new-task draft before the first account lookup
completes, then reopen it.

This PR carries the write layer from #15769 and its review fixes. It
targets master after #15754 merged. Related test cleanup #16952 already
covers the unchanged copy-link toast test; this PR does not duplicate
that work.

## What Changed

- Add bounded autosave and submit jobs for supported writes, with
pending, conflict and manual retry states. Retain admitted autosaves
after navigation and preserve newer task revisions.
- Keep each job with its original account, task and operation. First
account resolution adopts admitted startup work; a later account change
cancels old work. Remount inline and document editors when their owner
or document subject changes.
- Preserve task-creation keys and immutable request snapshots through
file reattachment. Restore generated document keys before comparing
reselected files. Reject changed requests instead of creating a second
task.
- Check the original account scope before creates and each upload. Save
successful upload receipts before stopping on an account change.
Identify attachments by content digest and metadata.
- Verify uncertain document and decision results. Replay only plain,
keyed comments automatically; combined reassignment, reopen and
run-setting changes require receipt reconciliation or cancel. Settle
each request once when a receipt races its retry.
- Scope drafts and connected-channel publication reads to their owner.
Keep unowned older records unread and unreplayed, with an explicit
confirmed discard action after Activity inspection. Preserve typing
through the first session lookup, keep erased text erased, and report
browser persistence only when storage succeeds.
- Wait for the first account lookup before sending startup status
changes or decisions. Retry failed required lookups with a fixed limit
and surface exhaustion to the original action. Preserve uncertain
comment keys on account cancellation. Check the account generation
before a comment retry calls its sender and again immediately before
POST after asynchronous preparation. Retire only that request’s
optimistic echo on completion.
- Return an ordinary comment’s accepted same-company, same-task,
same-user receipt before workspace reopening, task status changes or
wakeups. Reused keys with changed text still conflict. Complete
reference and activity records through the same finalizer for initial
sends and accepted retries. It locks the task before its comment,
matching task and company deletion, comment removal and tombstoning,
rejects removed or tombstoned comments, repairs references and inserts a
missing activity record in one transaction, and publishes after commit.
- Remove reader-only record and comment-body size caps so accepted
browser writes remain readable, including JSON-escaped comment requests
in local and session storage. Update four existing Storybook fixtures to
use owned draft keys.
- Document the write contracts and add regression and real browser
recovery coverage.

- Add the exact reviewed-save recovery regression for both composer
implementations and reloads. Align receipt completion, both comment
deletion methods and company deletion with task deletion by locking
tasks first. Cover real task and company deletion races.

## Verification

- The exact reviewed-unknown-save regression fails in all four cases on
original commit `1ed0af4186`. It passes with this PR for both composers,
before and after reload. Cancel keeps the text and uploaded receipt. The
retained draft sends, and the next message also sends. Run `pnpm exec
vitest run --project @paperclipai/ui
ui/src/components/composer-recovery.test.tsx`.
- The new real PostgreSQL task-deletion race fails with SQLSTATE `40P01`
on parent commit `f3253a00c4`. The company-deletion race also fails with
`40P01` on `e8cf0e02dd`. All six receipt tests pass after the final
lock-order fixes. They cover company deletion, task deletion, comment
removal, tombstoning, concurrent cross-task references and interrupted
reference repair. Run `pnpm exec vitest run --project
@paperclipai/server
server/src/__tests__/issue-comment-receipt-postgres.test.ts`.
- The full UI run passed 9,656 of 9,659 tests across 816 files. Three
cases failed under that run: two large-tree timeouts and one
plugin-panel assertion. All 67 tests in those two files passed in an
isolated rerun. These failures remain recorded; this does not claim a
clean full UI run.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, token gates and map checks pass on
the final change. The local full repository test command was started,
then stopped when the delivery moved to this existing PR. Fresh PR CI
must provide the full-suite gate.
- A local Storybook walkthrough used the real rich editor. Cancel kept
the restored text, Send cleared it after the simulated save, and a new
draft enabled Send again. Storybook simulates submission; it is not
staging acceptance.
- Earlier verification on `f3253a00c4` recorded five browser journeys
for title saves, cached-task offline recovery, startup recovery,
accepted comment replay and session lookup failure. Those results remain
prior-head evidence. No new staging deployment is claimed.

- On `e8cf0e02dd`, all CI checks passed after one browser-shard rerun.
Its first failure copied page text instead of YAML in an unrelated
agent-configuration test. On final commit `35131d4380`, Greptile is 5/5
with no unresolved review threads. The first CI attempt has two failures
outside this diff: runner close-attachment suspension and
scheduled-retry teardown. The scheduled-retry file passes all 14 tests
in isolation; the isolated runner test still fails locally. The single
standard CI rerun passed both jobs, and the aggregate verification gate
passed. All CI checks are green on `35131d4380`; Apex is 5/5 on that
same commit with no unresolved findings.

## Risks

- Automatic replay requires server duplicate prevention or result
verification. Uncertain combined mutations require receipt observation
or cancel and a fresh intentional send.
- Old unowned form drafts remain stored but are not assigned to an
account. Unowned channel records can be retired after Activity
inspection; this never cancels an accepted remote update.
- Browser storage and hashing can be unavailable. Storage failure is
reported honestly. Without a digest, replay can duplicate an upload
rather than silently drop a selected file.
- Detached autosaves remain bounded and check account ownership on each
attempt. Conflicts or exhaustion retain the draft for explicit recovery.
- No schema, credential or agent permission change is included. This PR
does not claim staging deployment or original-task acceptance.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip c9213d1be4 fix: send saved queued messages after Stop (#17959)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - People can save follow-up messages while an agent runs.
> - Stop preserves those messages and stops the active execution.
> - The queue removed its delivery controls when that execution ended.
> - Native admission also refused an explicit resend of older queued
input.
> - This change adds Send for a stopped queue and records fresh board
intent.
> - The saved message can continue through normal cleanup and admission
checks.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A person queued a message with a screenshot while an agent was starting.
Steering was not yet available. They stopped the run. The message
remained visible, but no control could send it. Native queue delivery
also rejected this transition.

**Expected behavior**

A stopped queue offers Send. The click preserves message IDs, content,
attachments and original authors. It starts at most one eligible
continuation. Stop remains effective until the person gives new
direction.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a native task and queue a second message.
2. Stop the active run before it consumes that message.
3. Open the task after cleanup. Observe the saved message with no send
control.

Refs #16965 for the queue-control change and #15015 for stopped
conversation recovery. No open repair for this exact transition was
found.

## What Changed

- Show Send for a saved deferred queue with no active run.
- Accept the existing board queue action for a stopped native target.
Keep live native interruption restricted.
- Use the server-recorded click time to authorize older native messages.
Reject stale, malformed and wrong-actor intents.
- Reuse normal queue dispatch, revision checks, cleanup proofs and
execution admission, including a failed native predecessor after a
verified Send.
- Ignore a fully committed, successful recovered export when admitting a
fresh message, while retaining the wait for results still committing.
- Honor an applied `/new` conversation boundary while retaining native
execution holds until the existing stop and cleanup checks verify them.
Workspace holds also survive reset. Check the newest failed or cancelled
native execution even when older recovery actions exist.
- Keep native automatic delivery separate from the explicit Send action.
Update execution and access documentation.

## Verification

- Meaningful regressions failed before the fixes: stopped queues lacked
Send, native admission refused fresh intent, cleanup and dispatch
receipts were missing, deferred rows disappeared, live plan Interrupt
rejected its own receipt, and Agent Chat `/new` inherited an old
non-workspace execution hold.
- Six assembled-wakeup cases fail before the reset cleanup fix. All 11
reset/history cases pass after it: live processes, missing identity,
quarantined cleanup, remote leases and live controllers remain held;
verified cleanup proceeds and retires the hold. Two more cases fail
before the fallback fix and pass after it: Send verifies a stopped or
live native predecessor despite a later reset receipt and no recovery
record.
- **525 server tests pass** across seven queue admission, route,
dispatch, envelope, provenance, blocker and conversation files. **343
queue/thread UI tests** also pass. Server/UI TypeScript, token and map
guards pass. The final scoped server typecheck also builds native Runner
successfully.
- The latest regressions prove that completed recovered exports permit
fresh input, and clearing conversation history still requires old native
stop and cleanup verification; an unsafe workspace still blocks after
`/new`; failed native Send reaches actual continuation dispatch with the
original queued comment. A result still being committed remains
deferred. History plus a newer Stop cannot hide a missing
process/controller/lease receipt.
- The real Chromium Stop/Send journey passes on current head
`75fa5e7222c59f43ff7ac326e81093bc9da28330`: queue a follow-up, Stop,
reload, explicitly Send, then verify exactly one useful response and no
live run. Earlier browser journeys cover legacy Interrupt, interruption
during a write and Stop followed by a new direction. These use an
isolated app/database and controlled ACP fixture, not an external AI
account or a staging deployment.
- Negative cases retain actor, company, issue, assignee, queue and
cancellation-receipt bindings; cleanup/process/workspace/controller
holds; approvals; pause and budget gates. Typed responses keep their
original resolver and immutable result.
- Full local recursive typecheck stopped in unchanged Rust Runner
compilation with ENOSPC, so the chained full tests/build did not run.
All hosted CI gates pass on final commit
`75fa5e7222c59f43ff7ac326e81093bc9da28330`, including typecheck, tests,
build and E2E. Apex review on that commit is 5/5, with no unresolved
findings. Earlier unrelated CI failures involved PostgreSQL
fixture-cleanup deadlock and an unchanged decision-expiry deadline
assertion; the latter's 20 cases pass locally without source changes. No
assertions or limits were weakened. Local resource cleanup was limited
to this task's verified completed test processes and rebuildable npm
caches.

## Risks

- Send can authorize a new turn for a saved message after Stop. A Send
click must be newer than the stopped execution; a live plan Interrupt is
bound to the cancellation receipt produced by that same click. It does
not imply that cleanup finished or that an external action is safe to
replay.
- The existing endpoint and intent format are reused. No schema or
credential change is required. Live native steering and legacy
interruption keep their existing paths.

DottaandPaperclip bd382eee53 fix(recovery): explain retained source verification failures (#17773)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Workspace recovery must prove the identity of retained work before
it uses an allocation.
> - The verifier rejects several different contracts with the same
`source_binding_invalid` code.
> - A saved Retry can therefore stop before file preservation without
enough evidence for a safe repair.
> - Operators need a bounded observation of the selected source without
another attempt or weaker guards.
> - This pull request records closed failure reasons and adds an
explicit read-only inspection on the run page.
> - The benefit is a precise next diagnostic step while the saved work,
intent, and ownership fences remain intact.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #17741, #17053. This is a diagnostic follow-up. It does not change
recovery admission or the retained-source acceptance policy.

**What happened?**

A retained-source recovery exhausted in `verify_execution` with only
`source_binding_invalid`. Run and task diagnostics could not distinguish
an invalid reference, lease policy, source binding, or reopened
allocation. The normal recovery-actions read can also revalidate
recovery state, so it was not a safe substitute for a current read-only
inspection.

**Expected behavior**

Record an allowlisted reason at the rejected guard. Allow a reader to
inspect one exact task/run/action without changing its attempts, saved
input, receipts, or ownership. Clearly separate the recorded failure
from current identity observations.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Prepare a terminal native run with a retained-source action and a
lease policy of `reuse_by_environment`.
2. Attempt source verification. The guard must still reject that policy.
3. Open the failed run and choose Inspect recovery, then Inspect current
source. The diagnostic should name `lease_policy_not_retained` and the
allowlisted policy.

## What Changed

- Split existing source-binding guards into closed reason codes. Keep
each acceptance predicate and physical recovery action unchanged.
- Persist validated, path-free reason/policy detail with future system
recovery failures. Keep historical generic records compatible.
- Add an explicit query on the existing task recovery-actions GET. Exact
company/task/run/action selection bypasses read revalidation. Run
selection lists at most 20 actions; inspection stops before per-lease
lookup when a record has more than eight sources.
- Add a manual inspection control on native export-failure run pages.
Keep resolved retained actions inspectable. Show recorded failure and
current recorded-source identity separately.
- Update execution semantics and feature/access recipes. The shared type
is the normalized server/UI contract; it contains no provider payload or
secret.

## Verification

- RED: the prior verifier failed both reason assertions for rejected
warm policy and foreign-run lease binding. GREEN: the final focused
source/HTTP, system-state, and UI suites pass 23 tests. The UI follow-up
passes 8 tests after the review fixes.
- HTTP tests prove exact selection, cross-company denial,
resolved-action access, reused-allocation rejection, redaction, and
unchanged actions, runs, leases, tasks, wakeup receipts, workspace
operations, and activity. A nine-source case proves bounded inspection
while the existing worker verifier still accepts all nine valid sources.
- Review follow-up: show allowlisted saved detail beside a changed
current observation, preserve all listed actions, and follow
exact-action selection in verified/limited/error tests. The prior
component fails the saved/current drift regression in an in-memory RED
control; the current component passes. UI typecheck/build pass again.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass. Token gates, maps, module
boundaries, and `git diff --check` pass.
- Rebased onto master `46de15ff4b` without conflicts. Range-diff proves
both diagnostic commits are unchanged. On new head
`a7e2bc87fcea75e76b6b736304d1287257f71174`, all 23 focused tests, full
typecheck/build, token gates, maps, and module checks pass again. Both
fresh reviews are 5/5 with zero unresolved threads. Final exact-head
GitHub status is CLEAN: 55 success, 2 skipped, 1 neutral, no pending
checks or failures. The [ci / verify
aggregate](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40387002325/job/121802415824)
passed in eight seconds. All test/build/typecheck/E2E lanes passed.
- Existing full workspace recovery suite: 56/56 pass (103.5 seconds)
before the byte-equivalent rebase. `pnpm test:run` hit repeated embedded
PostgreSQL initialization failure before database-suite assertions and
was stopped. No full local suite pass is claimed. The owned external
`_test` database provided the focused HTTP/source verification. The
prior browser attempt also stalled at Network.enable before its click;
that attempt did not establish browser acceptance.
- Current-head local browser acceptance passes through the actual run
page: Inspect recovery lists the exact action, Inspect current source
shows recorded generic failure separately from the current rejected
policy, and reload resets inspection to the explicit control. Explicit
selection works again after reload. The app used isolated data, an empty
inherited environment, a paused synthetic agent, and no provider
credentials. Final state remains failed/exhausted with zero attempts,
zero wakeup receipts, zero workspace operations, and unchanged original
generic failure. The local app and temporary tab were stopped. This
proves the diagnostic journey, not the deployed source's actual lease
policy or its recovery.
- Final merge verification at
`a7e2bc87fcea75e76b6b736304d1287257f71174`: GitHub reports CLEAN and
mergeable. Both repository-required checks, `ci / verify` and `ci /
e2e`, pass, as does the exact-head Greptile check (5/5, zero unresolved
threads). The separate [Entire
trail](https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/paperclip/trails/7) has no
recorded reviewer approval; no such approval is claimed. It is not a
configured GitHub merge gate.
- Initial local setup failures were distinct from product assertions:
localhost sandbox EPERM required scoped local access; a browser harness
import path was corrected. A test UUID type inference error and
historical native-export UI selection gap were corrected before the
green run. The live task remains blocked; this diagnostic does not claim
it recovered.

## Risks

- This change improves evidence. It does not prove provider termination,
local descriptor integrity, or successful file preservation, and it does
not repair the original source.
- Current inspection spans multiple database reads. It is an
observation, not a historical cause or execution authority. It performs
no provider/filesystem calls and starts no retry or executor.
- The optional persisted detail is backward compatible. Unknown values
and extra fields are excluded. Oversized source lists remain uninspected
through this explicit diagnostic path; physical recovery rules do not
change.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex based on GPT-6, with code execution and browser tools. The
exact serving model ID and context window were not exposed in this
session.

fengqing 05218571c3 fix(watchdogs): reject incomplete subtree scans (#15063)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Task watchdogs verify stopped issue subtrees and restore valid work
paths.
> - A watchdog must read the full subtree before it can prove that all
paths stopped.
> - The current query stops after 100 levels and does not report omitted
children.
> - A running child beyond this limit can be absent from both review
dispatch and mutation checks.
> - This pull request reports an incomplete scan and blocks both
decisions.
> - Complete subtrees keep their current behavior and stop fingerprints.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Fixes: #15061

Related PRs: #11327 changes subtree loading but keeps the same depth
limit without a completeness result. #10331 changes mutation freshness
after watchdog writes. Neither patch covers this boundary. This patch
does not take code from those proposals.

## What Changed

- Keep the existing 100-level traversal limit.
- Check for an eligible child beyond the boundary in the same SQL
statement as the subtree read.
- Apply the same company, visibility, harness, and watchdog-origin
filters to this check.
- Return `incomplete` without a stop fingerprint when the scan omits
eligible children.
- Skip review dispatch and reject watchdog mutation revalidation for an
incomplete scan.
- Report incomplete scans through their own count and watched issue IDs.
Log each newly incomplete issue at startup or during periodic
reconciliation. Suppress unchanged results. Allow a new warning after
the issue recovers and becomes incomplete again.
- Add real PostgreSQL regressions for dispatch, a previously valid
mutation scope, the complete boundary leaf, and excluded children.
- Document the incomplete-scan behavior.

## Verification

- Base: `569c7203aa24b95440682983ce7940ba1d4247bd`. Head:
`06f68199656f979ef5eb4897851f0fbcbca592d3`.
- Before the fix, two real PostgreSQL regressions fail. The service
dispatches a review for a partial subtree. It also accepts a prior scope
after a running depth-100 child appears. The other 19 scheduler checks
pass.
- On the exact final head, `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass on
isolated Ubuntu with Node 24.19.0, pnpm 9.15.4, and runner Rust 1.97.1.
- All 75 related tests pass. Run `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec
vitest run src/__tests__/task-watchdogs-classifier.test.ts
src/__tests__/task-watchdogs-scheduler.test.ts
src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts
src/__tests__/issue-watchdogs-routes.test.ts --maxWorkers=1`.
- Full `test:run` coverage passes across 29 logical groups: all official
stable-runner lanes plus supplemental service and script tests. The
selection covers all 900 server source test files without duplicate or
omitted selections. It also includes UI, CLI, and other workspace
projects.
- A separate validation tree applies both this PR and #15067 to upstream
`994d6edcdd4e15d5f9cc5cf8c135ac599104b86a` without conflicts. Type
checks, the build, and all 98 related tests across five files pass. Both
public PR heads remain unchanged.
- Four full server lanes required test-process environment corrections.
The host DNS search suffix resolved a `.invalid` fixture to an address.
Ancestor project authentication settings affected hire fixtures. The old
path-isolation tool also failed test imports with `EFAULT`. The exact
base has the same failures: 8 failed and 128 passed assertions without
isolation, then three failed imports with the old tool. All 136 checks
pass on both the base and this head with the corrected isolation. All
four original full lanes pass with the corrected tool, a resolver
without a search suffix, empty ancestor project settings, and the
standard Node path. No assertion or wait limit changed. The host
configuration remains unchanged.
- Earlier interrupted Ubuntu and Docker runs are retained and are not
counted as passes. This exact-head Ubuntu run passes the original chat,
port-conflict, and serialized lanes. The causes of the earlier host-loss
and timing failures are not fully established.
- The startup import regression in an earlier revision is fixed by a
diagnostics module with no database dependencies. All 21 startup checks
pass.
- Exact-head CI, including the added scans after marking the PR ready:
54 successful checks and 2 skipped checks. Greptile: 5/5, no outstanding
findings or follow-ups. Both review threads are resolved.
- The final audit rechecked issue authors, assignees, comments, 206 open
watchdog search results, root functions and fields, source history, and
related diffs. The latest upstream is
`994d6edcdd4e15d5f9cc5cf8c135ac599104b86a`. Its new patches do not cover
this root. No competing root repair was found within the audited scope.
The issue has no assignee or new comment.
- No model provider, production database, or user instance was used.
This verifies service behavior, not a full HTTP authorization bypass.

## Risks

- A subtree with eligible children beyond 100 levels now waits instead
of running a review. This is a deliberate safety boundary. It remains
blocked until the scan can include the full subtree.
- The boundary check adds a child-existence lookup to the existing
recursive query.
- No schema migration is required. Complete subtrees retain their
fingerprint format.
- This does not add unlimited traversal or close the separate race
between a subtree snapshot and later source mutations.
- The configuration lifecycle defect in #15060 is handled by separate PR
#15067. This branch does not include its schema or configuration
changes.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, assisted with source analysis,
implementation, and test execution. The exact serving model ID and
context window are not exposed in this session. The agent used
reasoning, shell tools, GitHub CLI, and real PostgreSQL tests.

DottaandPaperclip 5061ab7b35 perf(ui): speed up task and inbox cold opens (#17756)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Task lists and inboxes are the main entry points to that work.
> - Cold opens fetch overlapping task lists, task descriptions, and run
details before useful rows settle.
> - Independent responses can insert rows above content that a person
has started to read.
> - This pull request loads a small task index first and adds details
only for visible rows.
> - It keeps row order and geometry stable while those details arrive.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Cold opens of Tasks and Inbox, including the shared navigation badge.

**Subsystem affected**

Server list reads, shared response contracts, and the React UI.

**Current behavior**

The badge fetches full task bodies. Mine fetches several overlapping
lists. Historical diagnostics and row metadata add work before the first
useful list. A fast failed-run response can appear before task rows,
then move down when tasks arrive.

**Proposed behavior**

Load the selected inbox source and its required context together. Use an
index without task descriptions or recovery diagnostics. Fetch
diagnostic details for up to 50 visible rows. Keep skeletons, recovery
indicators, external status, and live metadata in fixed space.

**Reason and benefit**

Reduce work on a cold open and prevent loading-induced row movement. On
the same 100 local fixture tasks, the compact response was 262,441
decoded bytes and the index was 110,909 bytes. This comparison excludes
compression and is not a page latency benchmark.

**Breaking changes**

Existing full and compact responses remain available. New index/row
projections are opt-in and marked as partial data. Mine keeps its
existing most-recent-100 display limit, now selected on the server.
Existing filters and group preferences remain in the client. No database
migration.

**Additional context**

Refs: #17593. Related: #13095, #17428, #13803. This change addresses
collection overfetch and layout stability. It does not replace the
blocked-inbox query work or the database activity-index work.

## What Changed

- Add authorized index and row projections, with bounded task and parent
ID batches.
- Replace badge list downloads with unread IDs and aggregate counts.
Preserve actor privacy, dismissals, and local archive behavior.
- Load only the selected inbox source, plus bounded parent and
failed-run context. Return only relevant failures from the bounded run
window.
- Batch hierarchy reads, including at most one authorized child per
collapsed parent in one request. Collapsed markers do not consume the
expanded row budget, and partial descendant counts are not shown as
totals. Enrich visible rows without replacing membership, ordering,
titles, or read state.
- Reserve row geometry on desktop and mobile. Reveal the initial inbox
only after its sources settle. Preserve legacy task-list reads.
- Start collection module downloads during access checks. Keep partial
rows out of the task-detail cache.
- Keep ETags and concurrent request sharing for the new projections, but
skip the short server response TTL so archive undo sees fresh state.

## Verification

- On final head `ef6afb2a56`, the full CI workflow passed, including
build, typecheck, server/workspace/runner suites, and all eight browser
shards. A server shard reported **1,489 passing tests** before runner
shutdown canceled the job; its single infrastructure retry passed. Both
Greptile and Paperclip Review are **5/5**, with zero unresolved review
threads.
- The optional external **Entire Gates** check remains `unassessed`
because it has no active assessed Change for this comparison. Entire is
not set up in this checkout. The repository ruleset requires `ci /
verify` and `ci / e2e`; both passed. No gate configuration was changed.

- Passed workspace typecheck after the final API batching change. The
full production build also passed on the final commit; the exact-retry
E2E run built the shipped UI.
- Passed token gates and map validation. The final batch-preview pass
has 91 passing route/hierarchy/component tests, including privacy,
request bounds, 30 collapsed parents in one read, and a 120-child parent
alongside a sibling.
- Passed the 166-test focused UI/inbox/badge run, 47 additional UI
regression tests, and 34 issue-list route tests. The latest regressions
cover low-trust agent badge IDs, cold company selection, 30
description-only Mine matches with archive actions, retrying optional
row details, and collapsed/expanded siblings.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` spanned the rebase and reported
failures in five suites before it was stopped; it is not claimed as a
complete pass. A fresh serial rerun of all five suites passed
**452/452** tests (tool gateway, native resume, project repositories,
workspace recovery, and runner selection). Full current-commit coverage
is checked by CI.
- Real browser: delayed index and row-detail responses on Tasks and
Mine. The first placeholder and first row had the same origin and
44-pixel height. Twelve rows on each page had zero position, height, or
title-width change after recovery details arrived.
- Real browser: reviewed long titles and recovery status at a 390 by 844
viewport. Task text stays on one line and recovery uses a compact
indicator.
- Three fresh document loads per page on final commit `260893bf92`, with
HTTP cache retained on a warm local development server: Tasks
1.031–1.190 seconds; Mine 0.999–1.193 seconds. Browser-control overhead
is included. These values must not be compared directly with staging
latency or the earlier local samples taken during a full test run.
- The browser archive test exposed stale results after Undo. The new
projections now bypass the server TTL; immediate-mutation regression
tests pass. The final browser retry passed: Archive followed by Undo
restored exactly one row and the badge count.

- CI exposed a hook-order crash when company selection resolved after
the first inbox render. The hook now runs before the empty-company
return. All seven affected exact-retry and legacy-continuation browser
scenarios pass locally after the fix.
- Real browser review regressions: 97 description-only source matches
retained Archive actions; deliberately failed optional row reads
displayed a retry notice while all 12 observed row positions and heights
stayed unchanged. Retry restored the recovery indicator. Network fault
injection was removed.

- The final production build and workspace typecheck passed. Final
focused verification passed 153 UI/helper tests and 26 heartbeat privacy
route tests. Final review regressions cover newer diagnostics arriving
during the index read, reloading diagnostics when the same task ID
changes version, optional source failure/retry without hiding available
rows, and required external-status filter failure. The latest-failures
route test verifies bounded selection, agent filtering, success
suppressing an older failure, and private-run redaction.
- Real browser: deliberately failed the run source, then retried it.
Twelve available task rows kept the same position and 44-pixel height
before, during, and after retry. No loading skeleton replaced them.
Fault injection was removed.
- Hierarchy review decision: the cold-open barrier stays because
inserting ancestors or expanded children after revealing index rows
would cause layout shifts. Existing hierarchy context now survives
subsequent requests, with a regression proving a new ancestor read does
not blank the list. The bounded recursive tree read can still add
latency for unusually deep expanded trees.

- Tasks now handles a failed external-status filter with an explicit
error and Retry, suppressing a false empty state. All 52 Tasks component
tests pass, including failure-to-success retry. One existing large-tree
test timed out while workspace typechecking ran concurrently; the whole
component suite passed when rerun without that competing work. Workspace
typecheck, the full production build, and token gates passed for this
fix.

## Risks

- Saved filters and grouping still operate on the existing bounded
collection. This is not a new global server pagination model.
- Fixed row slots reduce available title width. Long titles remain
accessible through task navigation.
- Recovery and related diagnostics arrive after core rows. Their
responses cannot replace ordering fields, and stale versions are
rejected.
- Index/row requests now revalidate against current data instead of a
short server TTL. They still share concurrent reads and use ETags.
- This has not been deployed by this pull request. Staging latency must
be measured after deployment under comparable conditions.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family. The exact runtime model ID and
context-window size are not exposed in this session. Used code editing,
terminal execution, and real-browser diagnostics.

DottaandPaperclip a1f77821b9 perf(tasks): show recent conversation before historical activity (#17593)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A task page must show the instruction and current conversation
quickly.
> - The current page waits for related task data and historical run
transcripts.
> - These reads grow with task history, even when the reader only needs
the latest answer.
> - This pull request gives cold opens a small initial view and loads
older history on demand.
> - Messages and runs observed while the page stays open remain visible.
> - The benefit is a readable task before historical diagnostics finish
loading.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #14667 and #16229. The first changes the reveal gate and scroll
anchors. The second adds general history pagination. This PR adds a core
task read and a folded recent-conversation view. It preserves the
default full-read API contracts. The shared files will need coordination
if either related PR lands first.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Cold opening an ordinary task with a long conversation or large run
logs.

**Current behavior**

Task enrichment and historical transcripts delay the readable
conversation. A cold open can fetch several megabytes of tool activity
before revealing saved messages.

**Proposed behavior**

Show the task instruction, recent saved replies, latest human input, and
the latest run's conversation data first. Fetch older messages and full
run activity when the reader chooses **More messages**. Retain new
messages while the page stays open.

## What Changed

- Add an authorized core issue view that skips related enrichment. Keep
enrichment on the existing detail read. Share task mutation, rollback
and invalidation updates with the core cache.
- Add a bounded recent-comment read. Preserve the first human
instruction when no description exists, including legacy rows with a
NULL author type. Keep company and task access checks and comment
redaction.
- Add optional recent activity and run-summary views. Fetch original
input receipts for visible comments separately so delivered messages
stay out of the queue. Reconcile watched unfinished runs after a
reconnect beyond the preview window, removing deleted runs after
reconciliation.
- Filter the latest native run's initial events to assistant messages,
request lifecycles and terminal results. Full event reads remain
available on expansion. Legacy fallback reads use a small tail extended
to the first complete record. HTTP cancellation aborts the storage read.
- Retain observed messages across cursor catch-up and new runs. Apply
local cancellation and deletion to both caches and their task aliases.
Refetch locally seeded history pages on expansion. Preserve expansion
across identifier and UUID links. Keep deep links, classic tasks and
Agent Chat on their existing full-history path.
- Update API documentation, design guidance, capability maps and
regression coverage.

## Verification

- Final acceptance on `9ea0b15ae44d9f6d2c9a9f824b4835f299f92979`: all CI
gates passed, including server/UI tests, all eight browser shards,
runner checks, full typecheck and build. [Final CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40326990328).
GitHub reports 55 successful checks, two intentionally skipped checks,
and one neutral Paperclip Review check described below. No checks are
pending or failed; Greptile is 5/5 and no review threads remain open.
- October 26 merge update: merged current `master`. The only conflict
was in task-page imports; both the compact-history hook and the new
live-update hooks remain. All CI tests and build jobs passed on
`044fd6733d`. Fresh review found canceled-comment cache drift, legacy
human-comment filtering, send-then-expand truncation, and partial legacy
log records. These defects were fixed in `af3d66a5bd`.
- Review-fix verification: 470 tests pass across ten affected suites,
including all six PostgreSQL cold-open tests without a helper override.
Cancellation/delete and send-then-expand regression tests failed before
the fixes and pass afterward. Coverage includes task identifier/UUID
reopen, stale in-flight reads, legacy NULL author types, local-file and
object-storage tails cut inside UTF-8 text, route forwarding, and
request cancellation. Full workspace typecheck and production build,
token gates, map validation and diff checks pass.
- Follow-up review found that a failed expanded legacy read lost its
record-alignment state on retry. `9ea0b15ae4` commits the expanded
window only after a successful read. The new regression fails before the
fix and passes afterward; all 19 transcript tests, UI typecheck, UI
build and token gates pass. Greptile reviewed this commit at 5/5 with no
actionable findings, and all review threads are resolved.
- The final Paperclip Review check ended neutral because its execution
did not complete; no passing Paperclip assessment is claimed. Its
earlier four concrete findings were fixed and regression-tested.
Greptile and the security scans completed successfully on the final
commit.
- The preceding `af3d66a5bd` CI run was canceled when superseded by the
retry fix. Its server shard 11 check briefly reported failure, but the
job API records cancellation and its test step passed all 1,750 tests.
This superseded run is not used as final CI acceptance.
- 549 focused tests pass on the final implementation across nine task
UI, activity-route, OpenAPI and PostgreSQL suites. These cover pending
history, desktop/mobile visibility, expansion, retained runs, message
bursts, cancellation recovery and queued-comment removal in both views.
- Legacy expansion keeps the latest answer visible while fetching and
deduplicating older output.
- Five PostgreSQL tests pass for core access denial, recent comments,
missing-description instructions, event paging and bounded activity/run
reads. macOS could not start another PostgreSQL cluster because it
exhausted its semaphore limit. These tests used a separate disposable
database on an existing local server through a temporary test setup
override. The helper was restored afterward.
- Full workspace typecheck and build pass with the final state fixes, as
do token gates and capability-map validation.
- Token gates, capability-map validation and `git diff --check` pass.
- Browser proof used a disposable task with 80 comments and six large
run histories. The cold view showed the instruction and recent exchange.
**More messages** revealed older comments. Navigation away and back
preserved expansion.
- Local HTTP sample: core 50 ms, recent comments 24 ms, recent run
summaries 17 ms. The latest native conversation response was 839 JSON
characters / 8 ms; its full event response was 1,099,005 / 86 ms.
Browser content paint was 1.34 seconds with development assets cached.
These are local observations, not staging latency claims.
- The first CI run passed every job except four board-send browser cases
and the review threshold. Those browser fixtures only mocked the old
comments endpoint; they now serve both recent and full reads, retaining
all message and attachment assertions. Both initial review findings were
fixed with regression tests. The next CI run passed every job. The
deeper review identified core-cache mutation, older delivery receipt and
retained run-status gaps; those are now fixed with regression coverage.
Final review is 5/5 with zero unresolved findings. Final-head CI
initially failed one unchanged runner shutdown test
(`runnerd-codex-transport.test.ts`, timeout-attachment case) with
`NativeSessionCloseUnrecoverableError`; all other CI jobs passed. The
same runner code passed on 971a762f80. A targeted local reproduction
also failed during provider drain. The failure is outside the changed
task loading paths; its underlying cause remains unresolved. The single
failed-job retry passed on the same head; this demonstrates recovery,
not a root-cause fix. All CI gates passed on the previous implementation
head `9004f94f28`: [CI run and
retry](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40192334629).
- `pnpm test:run` was attempted and stopped after repeated embedded
PostgreSQL startup failures. The native session suite recorded 15
database-related failures; other database suites could not start. No
complete local suite pass is claimed.

## Risks

- The compact view intentionally omits older diagnostics until
expansion. Existing open questions and approvals still use the current
interaction and run paths.
- Previously observed comment and activity rows remain cached while
open. The newest preview and incoming cursor pages refresh; this does
not add a general historical-edit synchronization protocol.
- Recent views are optional. Existing full API callers retain their
response shape and behavior. No migration is required.
- A legacy tail can exceed the requested byte limit by the prefix of its
first log record. Backward reads stop at the preceding record boundary
and honor cancellation.
- Staging has not been deployed or qualified with this change. Instance
startup latency is separate from task history loading.
- The related open PRs touch the same task-history files.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with reasoning, repository editing, shell
tools and browser testing. The exact serving model identifier and
context-window size are not exposed in this session.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip bf9a8551c3 perf(issues): filter queued comment wakes by task (#17613)
Apply the existing typed task identity filter in PostgreSQL before returning queued-comment wake controls. Preserve queue selection, ordering, payloads, and current run ownership checks.

All 84 route tests, build, typecheck, exact-head Greptile 5/5, and required CI pass. The old source fails the new deferred and queued byte budgets; corrected reads preserve the complete response and all saved rows.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 50797ea03c perf(issues): narrow queued comment wake display reads (#17570)
Read only typed queue display inputs from saved wake payloads and only runtime mode from queued runs. Preserve complete rows for locked edits, discard, steering, and interruption.

Validation: 93 focused route and policy tests, full build and repository typecheck. PostgreSQL fixtures preserve identical queue responses and saved input with less than 4 KB of read values; restoring the full wake read fails at about 1.8 MB. Exact-head Greptile 5/5 (medium), all CI checks green, and zero unresolved comments.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 1ad8f25c77 perf(heartbeat): narrow queued comment polling run reads (#17560)
Read current control facts and typed issue/adapter bindings for queued-comment polling. Keep full mutation and execution reads, native preparation and steering, authorization, and stored evidence.

Validation: full build and typecheck, 160 focused tests plus two assembled route regressions; exact-head Greptile 5/5 (medium), full green CI, zero unresolved threads. Old-route counterfactual transfers 2.5 MB versus less than 2 KB.

b6591c93a0 fix(issues): validate UUID query parameters on list and count endpoints (#17389)
Reject malformed UUID filters (participantAgentId, projectId, workspaceId, executionWorkspaceId, parentId, parentIssueId, descendantOf, createdFromIssueId, labelId) on GET /api/companies/:companyId/issues and /issues/count with a 422 instead of letting Postgres fail the uuid cast with a 500.

Fixes PAPERCLIP-BACKEND-4M.
