DottaandPaperclip 6b9e5f3a80 fix(evals): enforce qualified ACPX profile admission before paid turns (#17964)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip coordinates agent work through Runner.
> - Controlled evals route model calls through a budget gateway.
> - The definitions pin each ACPX runtime identity.
> - A stale qualified profile currently reaches a paid turn before
scoring rejects it.
> - The Runner CLI already checks an exact expected profile before it
creates a provider.
> - This change forwards that existing admission argument through the
controller.
> - Profile drift can then stop before model spending.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17943 and #17929.

**What happened?**
The worker in run 40618022700 passed all four behavior checks and
retained three final request receipts. Its grader then rejected the old
Claude SDK pin. The controlled wrapper could not pass the existing
`--expected-acpx-profile` argument to the built CLI.

**What did you expect to happen?**
The built CLI must reject a stale expected profile before provider
creation.

**Steps to reproduce**
Run a controlled ACPX cell with a definition that pins a different SDK
from the built Runner. The old wrapper accepts only request and output
arguments. It cannot enforce the profile admission supplied by updated
definitions.

**Paperclip version**
The observed run used e4b30163bb.

**Deployment mode**
The controlled GitHub Actions Runner protocol workflow.

## What Changed

- Forward bounded expected-profile JSON through the controlled wrapper
to the same built CLI.
- Reject invalid objects, oversized arguments, and profiles on non-ACPX
requests before opening evidence.
- Exercise a real child boundary and the actual qualified Claude CLI
admission gate.
- Document the definition/controller compatibility requirement.

## Verification

- Controller suite: 77 tests passed. The new regressions fail against
the original wrapper.
- Hosted and portable controller suites: 8 tests passed.
- Actual eval-session CLI contract suite: 39 tests passed. A stale
qualified Claude SDK never creates a provider service.
- Runner package typecheck passed.
- The non-ACPX rejection guard also passed its focused regression after
review.
- No live provider request was made for this change.
- Full repository checks and current-head reviews run on this PR.

## Risks

- Updated definitions require this wrapper before they can pass the new
argument. Merge the controller first.
- Profile identity remains owned by the built Runner CLI. The controller
only forwards its existing argument.
- Existing callers that omit the argument retain their current behavior.
- Optional review suggestions to duplicate the expected-profile hash
into controller evidence and add a full built-CLI/controller integration
case are deferred. The pinned definition revision retains the expected
profile, and both controller entrypoints plus the actual CLI admission
boundary are covered. A compatibility error fails closed without a paid
fallback.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 09ad9adce2 feat(server): adopt running remote agents through durable controller checkpoints (#17439)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip must keep admitted remote work alive while its main server
is replaced.
> - Runner owns recovery mechanics and exposes opaque checkpoints
through #17097.
> - The server owns company scope, encryption, Stop, tool authority and
execution ownership.
> - A successor must prove current ownership before it adopts the
original execution.
> - Checkpoint bursts must also leave capacity for normal requests and
lease renewal.
> - This PR persists and adopts that authority through the existing
runtime boundaries.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Remote agents retain the original execution during a bounded main-server
outage.

**Current behavior**

A server restart can lose the controller's local state and connection.
An unsafe replacement could repeat a turn or an uncertain mutation.
Checkpoint writes in the request pool can also delay ordinary requests
during an aligned burst.

**Proposed behavior**

Restore encrypted control records from Postgres and adopt the original
runner under a fenced lease. Recover known tool receipts through current
tool authority. Give control checkpoints a shared pool capped at two
connections per database owner.

Depends on #17097. Successors are #17455 and #17456. Qualification and
presentation remain separate review slices.

## What Changed

- Add company/run-bound encrypted checkpoint records and migration 0394.
Keep the SQL idempotent after renumbering against current master.
- Recover startup and expired ownership through native runtime and
heartbeat. Preserve the sandbox lease, admitted runner artifact, harness
configuration, native session and active turn.
- Keep Stop, finalization, preparation ownership and stale-writer
fencing transactional. Preserve graceful detach and natural crash
takeover.
- Recover committed tool receipts through the existing authority.
Reauthorize reads and hold uncertain mutations.
- Bound startup retention with the existing coordinator and preserve
zero idle scans.
- Share at most two checkpoint connections per database client. Keep
application and liveness capacity separate. Close the checkpoint pool
during shutdown; late writes cannot reopen it.
- Count SQL across both application and checkpoint clients. Prove
request/liveness progress, command recovery and failure after pool
shutdown with real Postgres.

## Verification

Project creation recovery now uses the existing project activity receipt
owner. It retains authenticated input normalization, fingerprint checks
and current run authority after the receipt lock. An absent receipt
returns no result before mutation. The new lost-HTTP-response and
no-effect regression uses real API routes and Postgres. The seven
transport cases pass locally. This Mac skips all 20 database cases. On
current source `5de803c2cd`, Linux [job
122593415890](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40620576702/job/122593415890)
executes all 20 project-tool cases successfully (9.480 seconds),
including the committed-project lost-response regression. Its shard
passes 1,627 cases with three unrelated skips. Server typecheck passes.
The transport regression initially has two failures; a subsequent
incorrect expectation about schema defaults was corrected before the
final pass. Ordinary execution adds no checkpoint writes or recurring
work.

Current candidate `5de803c2cd` includes the project-creation receipt
recovery fix and master `2cd747d1b6`. Migration 0394 retains the prior
idempotent checkpoint DDL. Every master SQL file and journal entry is
preserved. Snapshots 0390–0394, migration checks and server typecheck
pass.

The ordinary warm-turn regression fails on its second turn before
`a219ab51ad`. After correction, three completed warm turns select the
correct prior checkpoint and preserve the original session. All 288
provider-wiring cases pass. The control plane, external persistence
callback, identity rotation and filesystem are real; the backend and
database-load seam are scripted. The 13 warm admission/configuration
variants also pass after final master integration. This does not qualify
an underlying harness.

At current source `5de803c2cd`, Linux [job
122593415907](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40620576702/job/122593415907)
passes all 940 native-session-executor cases (61.431 seconds), including
the warm external-checkpoint behavior; the shard passes 2,358 cases with
one skip. Current [Runner job
122593415475](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40620576702/job/122593415475)
passes the native recovery lane: 115 passes and five container-only
skips, including the encrypted restore guard, fresh preparation (63.189
seconds), blocked claim lock (1.226 seconds) and recovery beyond 101
blocked owners (3.897 seconds). The first lane passes 2,215 cases with
one skip. The SQL cost test reports zero idle and streaming SQL for both
output volumes; this is component evidence, not a production capacity
claim. At prior candidate `1ff7bb44f4`, Linux job 122549307215 passes
all 938 native-executor cases, including the three-turn
external-checkpoint regression. Job 122549306469 passes the native
recovery lane with 115 passes and five container-only skips, including
the encrypted-restore session guard, fresh preparation (63.664 seconds),
claim-lock contention (3.961 seconds), and 101-owner recovery (3.824
seconds). This Mac skips the real-Postgres suite. The earlier full local
executor attempt has 921 passes and 16 failures during embedded-Postgres
initialization before assertions. The original fixture collisions and
their corrections remain recorded.

At earlier candidate `8fbe62b41d`, server shard job 122535673841 has
3,876 passes, one failure and one skip in an unchanged expiry-worker
retry/drain timing test. The same server/database tree on qualification
source `b64cac6951` passes all 20 expiry cases and all 3,877 shard
cases. The single diagnostic retry, job 122541891915, passes all 20
expiry cases and all 3,877 shard cases (one skip). No assertion was
weakened. The original failure remains recorded and its exact timing
race is not proven. All Actions checks and legacy status passed on
`8fbe62b41d`, with completed Greptile 5/5 and no open feedback. The next
candidate `1ff7bb44f4` also passed all Actions checks and Greptile 5/5.
Its Paperclip Review remained queued before the new master conflict
required integration. The new candidate needs fresh exact-head CI and
reviews; old checks do not qualify it. Migration generation is
checkpoint-only, all master SQL and journal entries remain unchanged,
and migration checks, server typecheck and all 13 warm-owner variants
pass after integration. The first migration check was blocked by TSX
sandbox IPC; its permitted repeat passes. The first warm-test command
used an incorrect path and ran no tests; the corrected command supplies
the 13-case receipt.

All 16 database pool-lifetime/options/teardown cases pass after granting
loopback permission; the first batch had two EPERM failures and 14
passes. Earlier semantic-tool/HTTP recovery, adoption, encryption-batch,
zero-streaming-write and idle-SQL receipts remain source-attributed in
the [qualification
record](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/2ff66f57da0da35bac1c19a2366ea4b84d87a986/doc/plans/2026-10-22-hot-upgrade-qualification.md).
That record retains earlier assertion, setup and cleanup failures and
their corrections. No failed gate is waived.

The historical 300-session component campaign passes four after phases:
steady read p99 is 107–108 ms at 500 reads/s and 100 writes/s;
aligned-burst read p99 is 103–105 ms after the bounded pool, versus
584–689 ms before. This comparison isolates the persistence corrections.
It does not measure the final stack's hosted active-agent capacity. The
hosted zero-agent API pair leaves SQL and CPU essentially unchanged, but
both arms fail absolute latency gates and candidate peak cgroup memory
fails its gate. The active-agent/viewer matrix, different-artifact
upgrade and rollback remain open.

Run `PAPERCLIP_TEST_DATABASE_URL=<owned-disposable-postgres> pnpm
--filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts`.

Previous head `f2db8a6568` had one failed workspace setup gate: [job
122555672441](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40608984238/job/122555672441)
passes all 4,169 UI tests and 285 CLI cases (one skip), but the company
import/export suite reaches its 30-second health deadline during doctor
startup. Its output does not reach the server-start step. The CLI,
server, database, shared, adapter and plugin trees are identical on
qualification source `a866619d7b`, whose [job
122555886663](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40609057937/job/122555886663)
passes that fixture and all 286 CLI cases. The one diagnostic retry,
[job
122561057225](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40608984238/job/122561057225),
passes the formerly failing fixture and all 286 CLI cases. All Actions
checks and legacy status on `f2db8a6568` pass. Its exact-head Greptile
completed at 5/5 with no open feedback. The current integrated head
requires fresh checks and a completed Paperclip Review before merge. The
original failure remains recorded; its exact timing cause is unproven. A
repeated failure requires investigation and repair rather than another
retry.

All current-head CI, legacy status, exact-head completed Greptile 5/5,
resolved feedback and ordinary GitHub merge eligibility remain required
before merge.

The latest integration preserves master’s published Copilot v70 profiles
and every published migration. Checkpoint migration
`0394_conscious_whizzer.sql` was generated with `pnpm db:generate` and
retains the prior idempotent DDL. The Runner vendor rebuild and replay
parity checks pass. Server typecheck and all 13 warm-owner variants pass
after that rebuild. The imported report-lock patch is byte-identical to
master; its intentional patch-context whitespace is retained, and the
feature delta passes whitespace checks. No hosted experiment was run.

## Risks

The pool adds up to two active connections per instance, shared across
agents. Checkpoint delivery can wait behind that bound; it still
requires its commit. Steady component-test Postgres CPU rises by about
1.7 percentage points of a two-CPU allocation. These corrections do not
remove the stack's control and renewal writes. The migration and key
must survive replacement. Fresh-database tests and local load do not
establish different-artifact hosted upgrade or rollback continuity.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 38d08847b8 fix(runner): keep OpenRouter upstream keys in the parent proxy (#17949)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and their work.
> - Paperclip Runner starts OpenCode with the selected provider and
model.
> - The native OpenRouter route passed the reusable upstream key into
the child environment.
> - A persisted-state scan found that key in an OpenCode database WAL.
The exact write operation is not known.
> - This pull request reuses the existing parent-held provider proxy for
that route.
> - The child receives a temporary loopback credential instead of the
upstream key.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

The native OpenRouter path passed `OPENROUTER_API_KEY` into the OpenCode
child. A real Product E2E persisted-state scan detected the key in the
child database WAL. The scan does not establish which operation wrote
it.

**Expected behavior**

The runner keeps the reusable upstream key in its own process. OpenCode
can call only the selected model through the session proxy.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start the OpenCode driver with an explicit or ambient synthetic
OpenRouter key.
2. Inspect the fake child configuration, environment, and persisted
provider values.
3. Send a request through the real loopback proxy and verify the
upstream authorization and exact model.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The regression is present on merged master
`813e808af462b6a6f9db38b6791e3bfe8465b51e`. This PR is rebased onto
merged master `d40f9ac377`.

**Deployment mode**

Built from source. The finding came from an AWS Product E2E job. The
regression tests use local synthetic servers and a fake child, with no
provider calls.

Related issue search found #16643 about general inherited environment
scope. This change addresses the narrower native OpenRouter path. No
duplicate custody PR was found. This PR must remain unmerged until
separately approved; it does not change the eval baseline or qualify a
new live result.

## What Changed

- Reuse the existing parent-held proxy for native `openrouter/` models.
- Remove the upstream key from the child environment and retain it in
diagnostic redaction.
- Keep the selected provider and exact model. Reject alternate-routing
fields before the upstream request. Use a session-lived loopback token.
- Preserve the effective explicit or ambient proxy bypass list when
adding loopback entries.
- Add explicit and ambient key regressions, upstream routing checks, and
child persistence checks.
- Document the boundary and its limits.

## Verification

- Final rebased head: full OpenCode driver suite, 64 synthetic tests
passed, and runner source TypeScript check passed. Original author run
had 61 passing tests before the new master tests.
- The two new explicit and ambient regressions fail on the old
implementation.
- Independent source review passed. The two new synthetic regressions
also passed independently. A separately filtered legacy pair hit fixture
selection/chmod ordering and is not claimed as a passing run.
- Tests use the real driver and proxy with a fake OpenCode child and
synthetic upstream transport. They check key exclusion, exact
URL/model/authentication, wrong-model and alternate-routing rejection,
proxy bypass preservation, redirect rejection, and proxy shutdown.
- The two advisory regressions failed before the correction: fallback
routing reached upstream, and ambient NO_PROXY was lost. The full
64-test driver suite and source TypeScript check pass after the
correction.
- No real OpenCode SDK/provider qualification was run. The original WAL
write mechanism remains unknown.
- Repo-wide typecheck, test:run, and build were not run locally because
local native/DB/model execution is excluded. Normal PR CI passed on head
`3e1903272ce65b92055ea70f8dc586d9aa5e0205`: typecheck/release registry,
general and serialized suites, runner static/Rust/Vitest checks, E2E
shards, build, and canary dry run. Greptile is 5/5 on that head.
Paperclip Review is neutral with no blocking findings; its two earlier
findings are fixed and resolved.

## Risks

The native OpenRouter route now uses the existing OpenAI-compatible
proxy transport. Synthetic tests do not prove every live SDK response
shape. The loopback token remains a credential, is redacted, and expires
with the session. This change does not claim isolation of every child
secret or persisted value.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6.1 Sol (`gpt-6.1-sol`) assisted source investigation,
implementation, synthetic tests, and review with tool use. No provider
model call was used for verification.

DottaandPaperclip e4b30163bb fix(evals): preserve the complete trusted controller artifact inventory (#17943)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/103/changes/paperclip/103
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages real agent work.
> - Controlled Runner evaluations record model spend and traces.
> - A trusted build creates one portable controller with a complete file
inventory.
> - GitHub artifact upload omitted one hidden dependency metadata file.
> - The next job correctly refused the incomplete inventory before any
paid worker started.
> - This change preserves all inventoried bytes without relaxing
verification.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17889, #17929.

**What happened?**
[Run
40585138437](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40585138437)
failed at copied controller verification. Its artifact contains 294
files; its signed inventory expects 295. The only missing file is
`server/node_modules/protobufjs/node_modules/@protobufjs/pool/.npmignore`.
No extra files exist. Every paid worker was skipped and no model request
ran.

**Expected behavior**
The trusted controller artifact preserves its full inventory, including
hidden package metadata. The strict verifier rejects any actual change
or missing file.

**Steps to reproduce**
Build the portable runtime, upload the directory with the action's
default hidden-file exclusion, then verify the downloaded artifact
against the original receipt.

## What Changed

- Enable hidden files only on the fresh trusted controller code upload.
- Download that exact upload and run a real artifact-service round-trip
test before any private preparation. The test fails if the upload drops
hidden files again; it tests the actual transport instead of matching a
YAML flag.
- Keep the strict byte inventory and trusted source/receipt checks.
- Document why this code artifact differs from private attempt evidence,
which still uses the protected archive.

## Verification

- Exact retained artifact comparison: one missing `.npmignore`, zero
extra files.
- `actionlint .github/workflows/runner-protocol-live-evals.yml` passed.
- Protocol workflow security tests: 14 passed.
- The artifact-service integration test is explicit-only locally. The
controlled workflow supplies the real downloaded artifact, trusted
source and receipt digest.
- No product runtime, provider routing or grading code changed. CI runs
broader checks. Fresh controlled workflow qualification follows merge.

## Risks

Hidden files are allowed only in the code-only output of the
provider-credential-free build. Raw private evidence and credentials do
not enter that upload. The artifact verifier still requires every file
and SHA-256 from the trusted receipt.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository inspection and
code execution. The exact serving model ID and context window are not
exposed to this session.

DottaandPaperclip 0d22e27dc4 fix(runner): preserve closed native startup diagnostics (#17962)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip runs agents through a controlled execution boundary.
> - Native Runner starts ACPX providers through a TypeScript sidecar and
a Rust transport.
> - That transport hides arbitrary provider messages because they can
contain credentials.
> - Grok admission failures currently have no stable code. Other startup
failures can also lose their owning stage.
> - A real native startup failure therefore reports only
`classification=unclassified`, even when the ordinary subscription hello
test succeeds.
> - This pull request preserves fixed failure categories without
forwarding provider text or changing admission policy.
> - The benefit is a useful next diagnostic result before another
functional repair or retry.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17922 and #17942.

**What happened?**

A native Grok session failed before its first tool. Runner assets passed
verification. The Rust rejection discarded the cause because only closed
error codes may cross that boundary. The existing admission guard used
plain errors. Startup errors outside that guard could also lose their
stage.

**Expected behavior**

Report a fixed Grok admission reason, or a fixed startup stage when no
known error code exists. Keep credentials, provider messages, session
IDs, and paths out of the classification. Keep the failure and cleanup
effective.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Have a Grok ACP fixture return a session without its native effort
acknowledgement.
2. Start it through the real ACPX client and pass the failure through
the sidecar classifier.
3. Before this change, the result is `acpx_sidecar_command_failed`. Rust
reduces that to `unclassified`.
4. The same loss occurs for injected sandbox, credential, and runtime
admission failures.

## What Changed

- Give Grok effort admission errors fixed codes for missing
acknowledgement, model or effort mismatch, session mismatch, conflicting
configuration, drift, and invalid protocol use.
- Record closed host startup stages in a private weak map. Preserve the
original error object, cancellation, and resource cleanup.
- Prefer existing known error codes over a fallback stage. Ignore
arbitrary provider-supplied stage properties and messages.
- Map only exact new codes to Rust diagnostic categories. Add real
ACPX-client and sidecar-pipe regressions with secret canaries and
unknown-code controls.
- Bind the changed shared source and new diagnostic modules in Copilot
profile 70. Preserve profile 69 and earlier history.
- Document the diagnostic contract. There are no dependency, lockfile,
workflow, auth, model, permission, or retry-policy changes.

## Verification

- Red before the production change: four TypeScript cases lost the
native reason or host stage. A Rust case returned `unclassified` for the
new closed categories.
- Final focused checks: 320 tests passed: 241 across sidecar
classification, Grok admission, the real ACPX client, recovery, runtime
adapter, and Copilot installation; all 79 host integration tests also
passed in isolation. These include nine startup-stage cases, translated
errors, actual missing Pi skill materialization, missing Copilot/Cursor
credentials, and a missing workspace binding.
- Review follow-up: a translated Copilot rejection lost its stage, and a
real Pi skill-loading failure reported configuration. Both regressions
failed before the two-line repair and pass afterward. Stage recording
now follows provider translation and starts before Pi skill acquisition.
The current unpublished Copilot 70 identity was regenerated.
- Formal review follow-up: missing Copilot and Cursor credentials
reported configuration. Both cases failed before the two-line stage
repair and pass afterward. A missing-workspace case also verifies the
separate binding catch.
- Seven Rust unit checks and 17 sidecar transport integration checks
passed. The pipe checks preserve known categories and reject unknown
suffixes without disclosing the provider message.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed. Rust formatting and the
generated profile/source identity checks passed.
- Host integration history is retained: one complete 73-case host run
passed. Other batches hit credential-port ownership errors in different
existing cases; the four new stage regressions passed. The final 79-case
host run passed after the last review fix. The prior intermittent lease
failures remain recorded and are not claimed fixed here.
- `pnpm test:run` was attempted and stopped after repeated embedded
Postgres bootstrap failures. The same local database failure predates
this change. Full CI must pass before merge.
- A metadata-only probe with pinned Grok 1.0.13, private HOME, synthetic
credentials, a local catalog, and no inference passed fresh Grok
4.7/High admission and cold restore. This is supporting ABI evidence. It
does not prove live subscription execution.
- Initial CI history is retained: server shard 1 failed its unchanged
final rate-limit slot test (two requests allowed instead of one). No
server policy code changed here. The review follow-up requires fresh
full CI; this is not claimed fixed.
- Second CI history is retained: chat shard 2 failed the unchanged Slack
session-sync quiet-queue test (three selects during the quiet window).
The first rate-limit failure did not recur there. No chat or server
policy code changed in this PR. Final head
654bc5aa21 passed all 61 contexts (56
success, four intentional skips, one informational neutral review). Both
final-head reviews are 5/5 with no new findings; the Paperclip app
publishes its completed review as an informational neutral check.
- Live native acceptance is still pending. After deployment, retry the
original bounded task and inspect its actual shell output, exit status,
run result, and saved task state. This PR fixes the evidence gap; it
does not claim the startup incident is resolved.

## Risks

- Shared startup failures can now receive a stage category. The private
weak map cannot import provider-defined fields. Known error codes keep
priority.
- A category could point at the wrong stage. Tests inject failures at
the installation, sandbox, credential, and runtime boundaries. Existing
cancellation and cleanup tests remain in place.
- The Copilot profile identity changes because shared source changes.
Historical identities remain decodable and cannot authorize a current
launch.
- The next live failure may require another functional repair. Admission
remains closed until the requested configuration is verified.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 7a8df30953 fix(runner): admit Grok effort through native session metadata (#17942)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets people manage AI agents for work.
> - Paperclip Runner must preserve each agent's model and thinking
effort.
> - The Grok migration in #17922 passes explicit effort to native
Runner.
> - The pinned Grok 1.0.13 CLI reports native session metadata instead
of standard ACP config options.
> - The standard effort guard rejects that valid session before the
first prompt.
> - This pull request binds model and effort on Grok session open and
verifies the native reply.
> - Restored sessions keep the selected effort instead of reverting to
Grok's default.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/17922

**What happened?**
A migrated Grok 4.7 agent with High effort fails at native session.open
before it can run a tool. Grok 1.0.13 has no standard configOptions
response and rejects session/set_config_option. Its native session
metadata supports the requested model and effort. A cold load also
resets effort to High unless the request supplies it again. The upgrade
banner also calls Grok “Codex”.

**Expected behavior**
The native session must acknowledge the selected model and effort before
a prompt. A cold restore must preserve both values. The upgrade banner
must describe the selected harness accurately.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Upgrade a Grok agent to Paperclip Runner with explicit High effort.
2. Assign a bounded shell task. The pre-fix native session fails during
admission.
3. For the restore case, create a Low native session, close the process,
and load it without effort metadata. The pinned CLI reports High.

**Paperclip version or commit**
Observed at f60ac29cf1 with Grok 1.0.13.

**Deployment mode**
Cloud, with the board operator interface.

## What Changed

- Project the bound model and effort into native Grok session/new,
session/load, and session/resume metadata before transport writes and
observation.
- Require a correlated native acknowledgement with the exact model,
effort, and session identity. Reject conflicting metadata, selection
drift, stale connections, and prompts before admission.
- Connect lazy restored handles through read-only native session
inspection. Keep the existing process ownership and launch snapshot
checks.
- Replace Grok's unsupported standard config setter. Keep the existing
Claude effort path.
- Add behavioral guard cases and a real ACPX client fixture for fresh
and cold Low/High sessions. The fixture resets effort on restore if
metadata is absent, as the pinned CLI does.
- Publish Copilot profile v69 because its source identity includes the
shared runtime adapter. Preserve published v66/v67/v68 bytes and the
reviewed Grok v67 candidate as history. Keep old profiles closed for
launch.
- Explain the native protocol in the Grok Runner guide and use
provider-independent upgrade banner text.

## Verification

- Three native create/load/resume cases failed before the repair. The
pre-fix guard rejected the native metadata reply.
- Seven affected Runner test files: 234 tests passed after the master
merge. These include native Grok admission, the real ACPX transport
fixture, runtime ownership, Claude effort, and profile history.
- The review follow-up extends the same Low/High fixture through a
complete first turn after cold restore. It checks the repeated native
load, original session id, actual response event, and completed turn.
All 127 tests in the three affected Grok/adapter files passed again;
Runner typecheck and source identity checks also passed.
- All 167 existing agent form tests passed. Token gates and diff checks
passed.
- Workspace typecheck passed. Final Runner typecheck and generated
profile checks passed.
- Production `pnpm build` passed, including after the master conflict
resolution. Runner typecheck, profile history checks, and the 234
affected tests passed on the merged source. All 55 Rust ACPX library
tests also passed on the merged source.
- Real pinned Grok 1.0.13 metadata probes reproduced the unsupported
standard setter and native create/load/resume behavior. No model prompt
was sent. An earlier actual ACPX runtime probe passed fresh and cold
Low/High metadata checks. A repeat with an explicitly isolated HOME
failed authentication before session creation, so it does not count as
final live acceptance. The deterministic transport fixture is green; a
deployed shell task remains required.
- `pnpm test:run` did not complete locally. Embedded Postgres failed
during bootstrap after five attempts. This is the same local fixture
limitation recorded for #17922. Fresh PR CI must pass before merge.
- After deployment, retry the original bounded shell task with the saved
Grok 4.7/High configuration. Verify actual tool output, a successful
run, and Done state after reload.

- Final commit `810d84fd19728e7d798989582f26b05f69166db2`: all CI gates
passed. Greptile and the formal Paperclip review both reached 5/5. No
unresolved review threads remain.

## Risks

- This depends on the pinned Grok 1.0.13 native metadata format. Missing
or conflicting replies stop admission instead of silently changing
effort.
- Cold restores must make one read-only native inspection call before
admission. The existing handshake timeout and process ownership checks
still apply.
- The shared adapter changes Copilot's source identity. The new current
profile includes the final source hashes; the prior profile remains
decodable but cannot launch.
- This does not change the Grok CLI version, account selection, search
policy, dependency patch, or lockfile.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 0a08d37aa0 feat(runner): recover controller authority without interrupting execution (#17097)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and owns their business authority.
> - Runner owns execution transport, acknowledgements and replay.
> - A replacement controller must recover that transport without
starting another provider turn.
> - An external store can retain the required control records without
copying streamed text.
> - A duplicate local journal adds synchronous disk work without
providing the replacement server's authority.
> - This PR adds the optional recovery contract and its standalone
proof. Server adoption and browser delivery have separate owners.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

A surviving runner can reconnect to a replacement controller with its
admitted process, session and active turn.

**Current behavior**

Local controller files do not provide recovery on empty replacement
storage. Rewriting those files after an external checkpoint is installed
also blocks normal controller work.

**Proposed behavior**

An optional callback stores opaque checkpoints. The replacement restores
that checkpoint before it constructs the controller. Installing the
callback makes the external store authoritative. Local storage holds a
marker that requires restoration. Consumers without the callback retain
their file journal.

PR 1 of four: #17097 → #17439 → #17455 → #17456. Related work: #17390
and #17361. The pre-split reference remains
`codex/hot-upgrades-reference-2026-10-24`.

## What Changed

- Add opaque checkpoint encoding, restoration, incremental persistence
and authenticated sparse recovery cursors.
- Keep authentication, commands, semantic inputs and lifecycle events
behind their commit barriers. Share semantic-call ownership between live
dispatch and recovery.
- Keep streamed text out of recovery checkpoints. Preserve bounded
retention, original deadlines and admitted process identity.
- Stop normal local journal writes after external persistence is
installed. Fail closed on a local marker until external restoration
occurs. Preserve current master's staged file writes for standalone
consumers.
- Keep provider-native admission and authorization behind adapters.
Preserve historical Copilot attestations and bind the merged launch and
transport sources in v68; preserve published v66 and prior development
identities.
- Add the one-process scripted executor fixture and deterministic
outage, replay, failure and backpressure tests. Add no production test
endpoint or auxiliary process.

## Verification

The completion-recovery correction passes three restart regressions that
fail before its respective transport/driver fixes. All 230
controller/attestation cases, all 302 Codex transport cases in the full
repeat, and all three one-process fixture cases pass. The broader
Codex/Dot/Muse run passes 326 cases and times out one existing mid-goal
case; its isolated retry and complete Codex repeat pass on unchanged
source and binaries. The initial timeout remains recorded. Conformance
and replay parity pass.

Historical v65/v66 attestation bytes remain frozen; v67 binds the
changed transport. The local runner-only API-authority lane passes 2,027
cases but its 47 HTTP cases cannot initialize embedded Postgres on this
Mac. The integrated owned-database HTTP path is verified in PR 2. At
preceding head `0d8d1b8250`, the Actions workflow passes after one retry
of runner-service shutdowns. Greptile is 5/5 with no unresolved threads.
The interrupted attempt is retained. All checks on that preceding head
are terminal and green/neutral/skipped.

Run `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner exec vitest run
src/control-plane/durable-prp-control-plane.test.ts
src/live/runnerd-codex-transport.test.ts --maxWorkers=1` and `node
packages/paperclip-runner/scripts/copilot-profile-identity.mjs --check`.

The [qualification
record](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/codex/hot-upgrades-qualification/doc/plans/2026-10-22-hot-upgrade-qualification.md)
retains exact revisions, failed attempts and qualification limits. The
local cost campaign observes zero hot-path local journal fsync calls. It
does not qualify a native harness or hosted deployment.

Master reconciliation `d5fc443626` preserves the published v66 and prior
development identity bytes and binds the combined transport in v68. All
290 focused runner/profile cases and runner typecheck pass. The first
sandboxed invocation cannot open loopback listeners; the permitted
repeat passes. Fresh CI and Greptile are pending for this updated head.

Current merge candidate `4fb3d1835b` also fixes public-reader
publication before external commit. New held/rejected-write cases fail
before correction and pass afterward. The full controller repeat passes
168 cases. The combined lane passes 390 other
recovery/transport/profile/fixture cases; its first two overlap fixture
failures are retained and corrected to observe callback entry instead of
provisional state. Runner TypeScript build and typecheck pass.
Current-head GitHub Actions is green and Greptile is 5/5 with all
threads resolved. The superseded master-reconciliation CI shutdown
remains recorded.

## Risks

The persistence callback is an acknowledgement barrier. Failure must
stop delivery. A consumer that installs external persistence must
restore its committed checkpoint before restarting; the marker is not a
recovery snapshot. Sparse display recovery does not reconstruct
acknowledged text or repeat execution. This slice has no Postgres
schema, application authorization or browser behavior.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 35820cf398 fix(evals): qualify Runner model receipts with separate operating reconciliation (#17929)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip must account for paid eval work.
> - The maintained Runner workflow distributes one immutable controller
manifest.
> - Its cost gate currently requires vendor proofs for every operating
charge.
> - Model-spend qualification must also work under an explicit policy
that keeps operating charges separate.
> - This PR applies the shared model-readiness policy to the hosted
controller.
> - It retains every operating hold and still rejects missing model
receipts and incomplete workers.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17928, #17889.

**What happened?**
Runner qualification requires full-lifecycle vendor operating proofs
even when the operator selects model-request readiness. That blocks the
model-token qualification path.

**Expected behavior**
An explicit `overhead.accountingReadiness: "model_requests"` policy
permits absent operating cost proofs. Supplied proofs still validate.
Complete final model receipts are required.

**Steps to reproduce**
Prepare a two-worker hosted manifest with the explicit policy and no
vendor cost proofs. Preserve missing-worker allocations, then complete
both workers and inspect the private archive summary. A second test
returns a provider refusal without terminal usage and requires failure
with the full hold.

## What Changed

- Apply the shared explicit policy to hosted capacity and observability
cost-proof admission.
- Preserve pricing windows, model bounds, immutable
source/request/runtime identities, trace quotas and every allocation.
- Reject zero or unresolved model requests in this policy, even if a
request has a provisional bound.
- Retain operating amounts and pending reconciliation through campaign
and private archive summaries.
- Document the separate model-readiness contract. Preserve strict
behavior when the field is absent.

## Verification

- Regression first failed at the original vendor-bound gate.
- All 80 controlled-eval Node checks pass, including source and copied
portable runtime checks, archived partial/missing workers, credential
exclusion and model receipt failure.
- Product readiness prerequisite #17928 has its own eval unit/typecheck
and full CI checks.
- No paid workflow, credential change or recurring activation is part of
this source PR.

## Risks

This opt-in policy does not prove a full-lifecycle operating-cost
ceiling. The report retains operating holds and pending reconciliation.
Default policies retain the existing vendor-proof gate. Source and
worker identity checks remain required. A model refusal without final
usage now fails readiness even if its reservation has a reviewed bound.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository inspection and
code execution. The exact serving model ID and context window are not
exposed to this session.

DottaandPaperclip f60ac29cf1 fix(runner): migrate Grok Build with native reasoning effort (#17922)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Harness selection maps supported agents to Paperclip Runner.
> - The native Runner already supports Grok Build, but its migration
mapping excludes Grok.
> - Grok agents also have a thinking-effort setting that the native
execution contract does not carry.
> - This pull request adds the migration path and preserves explicit
Grok effort through startup and resume.
> - Operators can upgrade an existing Grok agent without silently losing
its model, account, or effort.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Existing Grok Build agents have no Runner selector or upgrade action.
Adding only the mapping would route conversion through the Codex
fallback and lose Grok execution semantics. Native execution also
ignores the legacy reasoning-effort field.

**Expected behavior**

A qualified Grok agent can explicitly upgrade. The saved model, account,
instructions, history, and supported effort remain intact. Unsupported
legacy settings fail before saving. The provider must acknowledge the
selected effort before inference.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Open the runtime page of an existing Grok Build agent on a qualified
Linux x64 or macOS ARM64 computer.
2. Observe that the Runner selector and upgrade action are absent.
3. Compare the native execution input with the saved legacy
reasoning-effort setting.

Related work: #13882 introduced native Grok Build. #15422 covers the
earlier default-runner work. This change extends the current shared
selection contract.

## What Changed

- Add the Grok harness mapping, qualified platform limits, upgrade
action, and company-scoped computer qualification.
- Translate Grok settings to ACPX without changing the selected account
or explicit model. Resolve the legacy default model to the native
default. Preserve the effective legacy search policy. Reject
incompatible command, argument, permission, and turn-limit settings.
- Add native execution input v10 for explicit Grok effort and search
policy. Preserve historical schemas. Enforce disabled search through
Grok requirements and bind it across startup and recovery.
- Apply and verify ACP `reasoning_effort` before prompting. Bind the
value to provider descriptors, checkpoints, runtime identity, and resume
checks.
- Use the Grok catalog and effort choices in the task composer. Apply
task model and effort overrides while retaining the agent account and
search policy. Update runtime controls, portability/default handling,
documentation, and capability maps.
- Advance Pi and Copilot source attestations for changed shared
transport and recovery code. Keep historical identities intact and
update all Rust integration fixtures.

## Verification

- Migration and review regressions were reproduced before the fixes.
Coverage includes the Grok mapping, default model, explicit effort,
implicit search policy, task overrides, and incompatible legacy
settings. The broad migration, route, immutable-input, and composer
check passed 478 tests. The final catalog and task-input check passed
135 tests.
- Runner startup, recovery, search policy, and profile checks passed 361
tests, with one platform skip. The final source-identity,
search-admission, and transport event-pump check passed 89 tests.
- All 757 Rust workspace tests passed for the broad implementation.
After the final source attestation update, all 55 ACPX profile/session
tests passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed for the implementation.
Server and Runner typecheck passed after the final production change.
Server `tsc --noEmit` passed after the final test-fixture change. Docker
context integrity, token gates, maps, generated protocol data, and
replay goldens passed.
- The v10 startup fixture initially used an ambient local Grok login and
failed on CI. An explicitly empty credential home reproduced all four
failures. The fixture now supplies a synthetic key and a private empty
home. A separate case checks that missing credentials fail closed. All
seven selected Grok v10 and Claude v9 startup cases pass without host
credentials.
- The full local suite could not complete because embedded PostgreSQL
failed before database-backed fixture setup. The broad executor-suite
attempt hit the same limit and was stopped. Neither attempt is counted
as passing. Current-head CI must verify those paths before merge.
- Earlier CI found missing Rust input fields, stale source attestations
and exact fixture pins, a missing Docker context entry, and an outdated
import expectation. Those failures were fixed and checked locally. The
CI logs retain the original failures.
- Different earlier CI runs also failed unchanged cleanup pagination,
device-login timeout, and chat lost-response recovery cases. Later
attempts passed the cleanup and login cases without changes to those
implementations. Their causes remain unproven. The original evidence
remains in [the first
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40563402840),
[the login
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40571128328),
and [the chat
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40573072163).
A passing retry does not establish a root-cause fix.
- Both reviews rate current head
`16fba9b4cdf12bc7945e6628912e79da42959f35` 5/5. All current-head CI
gates pass in [run
40576580699](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40576580699).
All 60 check runs completed cleanly, including the four intentional
skips and the neutral 5/5 Paperclip review. The legacy security status
is successful. No review threads remain unresolved.
- Staging migration and a real shell task are pending deployment. This
PR does not claim full Grok provider qualification. Reviewers can verify
the operator path by upgrading a qualified Grok agent, checking its
saved model and effort, and running a shell task through native
execution.

## Risks

- Explicit effort and search policy require the matching Runner and
sidecar build. Older immutable execution inputs keep their existing
schemas.
- Providers that omit or reject the selected effort fail before a
prompt. Unsupported effort does not fall back silently.
- Existing agents retain their saved runner until an explicit change.
New Grok agents use native execution only on qualified platforms.
- Grok token and cost reporting remain unverified, as before.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family. The exact serving model ID and
context-window capacity are not exposed in this session. Used reasoning,
source editing, shell execution, and browser inspection.

3cd3af5d75 Trace native preparation and OpenCode execution phases (#17918)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Each native run prepares its workspace and skills, then starts its
provider.
> - A long preparation span does not show whether inventory refresh, a
cache lock, repository reads, or file checks caused the delay.
> - One hosted run spent 81 seconds in this phase. The same deployed
service and pinned files took 2.55 seconds in a separate diagnostic
process.
> - Another hosted turn spent 69 seconds before its first output. A
matched public-workspace local model replay took 7.64 seconds.
> - We need skill preparation and provider-internal measurements before
choosing another fix.
> - This pull request adds skill spans, a real-service benchmark, and
opt-in filtered provider timing.
> - The benefit is a faster and more precise diagnosis loop.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17620. That PR owns the batched read optimization. This PR adds
diagnostics and does not change its read policy.
Refs #17907. That PR protects long cache lock transactions from the
database idle timeout.

**What happened?**

Native skill configuration can take much longer than matched standalone
resolution. Provider execution also has long gaps with no internal
timings. Existing spans cannot separate inventory refresh, cache
acquisition, repository reads, context loading, Git snapshots, or model
streaming.

**Expected behavior**

An operator-configured trace shows these phases under the existing run
context. Without an OTLP endpoint, the new spans stay off. A local
benchmark can reproduce the service path with real PostgreSQL, files, an
agent actor, and a responsible user.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsx
scripts/benchmark-native-skill-preparation.ts --actor=agent
--staging-shape=true`.
2. Inspect cold and warm phase timings, SQL counts, and file
verification results.
3. Set the existing operator OTLP configuration and add
`--export-otlp=true` to inspect the same hierarchy in the collector.

## What Changed

- Add bounded skill inventory, refresh wait, cache acquisition, row,
version, repository, file check, and consumer spans.
- Keep the existing endpoint gate, attribute allowlist, cache locks,
authorization, file validation, and durable pin boundary.
- Add a standalone benchmark with a full repository fixture, immutable
snapshot input, calibrated local transport delay, and optional OTLP
export.
- Verify every delivered file and executable bit outside the timed
section. Create its fixture agent through the lifecycle API.
- Add an opt-in authenticated loopback sink for OpenCode. Discard raw
attributes, logs and content. Retain only closed phase names and
timestamps.
- Carry one bounded diagnostic batch through the real proxy, Rust
normalization, durable journal and server trace projection. Group
provider phases under their execution parent.
- Freeze the Date clock in an existing delegated Slack rate-limit test.
This fixes a CI failure when consecutive requests cross a rate-window
boundary. It does not change rate-limit behavior.
- Document phase boundaries and the difference between SDK startup and
confirmed ingestion.

## Verification

- Skill service, runtime selection, concurrency, cache and timing
suites: 122 tests passed with real PostgreSQL and migrations.
Enabled-span integration tests also passed. They verify parent
relationships and a real advisory-lock timeout.
- A captured 208-file repository produced 209 verified runtime files.
The benchmark uses real agent and responsible-user authorization. The
lifecycle fixture correction passed with the staging-shaped inventory.
- Affected OpenCode driver, collector and transport tests: 72 passed.
The tests cover authentication, content removal, size/count bounds,
disabled behavior and the rebuilt native Runner boundary. One Rust
projection test and 18 server trace tests also passed. A held run-log
sink proves that a full 128-span diagnostic batch adds no duplicate
database writes before terminal consumption.
- The two CI-failing delegated Slack rate-limit cases passed against
real PostgreSQL with only the Date clock frozen.
- Runner TypeScript and server TypeScript checks passed. Rust formatting
and module-boundary checks passed.
- Real Honeycomb readback confirmed the 14-span skill waterfall and a
40-span provider waterfall. Provider phases have the correct execution
parent. The provider export uses synthetic model replies and is
instrumentation proof only.
- Earlier full local checks failed on missing package-local executables,
then on the default Node heap and a missing generated service worker.
The dependency links were repaired. The server check passed with a
larger heap. The full local test attempt could not start embedded
PostgreSQL on this host and was stopped after retaining its failures;
real database coverage uses an isolated database on an existing local
server. These attempts do not count as a full local pass.
- CI on the prior revision passed typecheck, build, Runner and all E2E
shards. It failed the benchmark lifecycle boundary and one existing
rate-window test. Those fixes passed CI. A later Runner assertion
exposed the Copilot source identity pin on the shared transport file.
The diagnostic flag now uses the existing configured-environment
projection, preserving that file byte-for-byte. All 66 selected
installation and native transport tests passed. New-head CI and review
remain required.
- The under-15-second hosted response target remains unmet. This PR adds
diagnostics and does not claim a hosted latency fix.

## Risks

- Skill spans and Honeycomb export retain the operator endpoint gate.
OpenCode phase collection requires a separate explicit diagnostic flag.
Without an endpoint, its closed measurements stay in the instance run
log.
- Raw OpenCode OTLP can contain prompts and authorization attributes.
The new sink rejects unauthenticated requests and discards all
attributes before any measurement reaches PRP or the operator collector.
Request, event and per-phase limits bound memory and journal growth.
- Collection does not wait for a provider flush. Late or oversized
exports can be absent; these measurements are not a complete profiling
guarantee.
- The benchmark's inventory contents and transport delay are explicit
fixtures. They do not reproduce server contention or prove hosted
response time.
- The one durable diagnostic batch remains the local evidence. Its child
span export does not add per-phase run-log rows.
- No database migration, authorization policy, model selection or
inference transport changes. The Rust Runner and OpenCode proxy must be
shipped together for the new opt-in diagnostic.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with repository inspection, shell execution,
browser tools, and Honeycomb queries. The session does not expose a
verifiable backend deployment ID or context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip 5982246771 fix(server): schedule custom-image setup expiry from committed changes (#17443)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agent work and its execution environments.
> - Interactive image setup sessions must expire even when users leave.
> - The server currently scans these sessions on every maintenance tick.
> - Empty scans keep the instance and database active.
> - Existing session rows already record status and expiry.
> - This pull request uses transaction signals and the shared scheduler
for those rows.
> - Empty and completed setup history no longer create recurring cleanup
queries.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

The server checks custom-image setup expiry every heartbeat maintenance
tick, even when no active session exists.

**What did you expect?**

Session writes should update the next cleanup deadline. Existing
provider cancellation and cleanup ownership must remain intact. Empty
state should stay quiet.

**Steps to reproduce**

Run an instance with heartbeat scheduling enabled and no custom-image
setup sessions. Observe repeated setup-expiry reads.

Refs #17145. This is the first PR in the recurring server sleep stack.
Its base is master. The full requested scope and verification contract
are recorded in `doc/plans/2026-10-24-recurring-server-sleep-stack.md`.
Follow-up PRs target their predecessor and each own a separate reason
for recurring work.

## What Changed

- Carry the historical cleanup retry-observation fixture repair and its
existing external test-database hook at the stack foundation. Runtime
scheduling is unchanged.

- Carry the previously verified login-cleanup fixture settlement
correction at the stack foundation so every intermediate CI run receives
it. This is test-only maintenance; custom-image expiry behavior is
unchanged.

- Add a custom-image expiry worker to the existing delivery coordinator.
Remove its maintenance-tick scan.
- Signal initial creation, provider refresh, cancellation/failure, and
promotion inside their owning transaction.
- Keep the active-status predicate, earliest saved expiry, and provider
behavior in the custom-image service. Shared code gains only a queue
topic.
- Preserve startup recovery, bounded retries, concurrent write
generations, and drain deferral. No tables or external alarm changes.
- Add PostgreSQL lifecycle tests and repair this suite's database
cleanup callback. A dedicated external test URL permits disposable
PostgreSQL when the host cannot start another embedded cluster.

## Verification

Current head: `3507c6be1e054fdd93353d5dcf77d4899b44518f`. This remains a
single-duty PR stacked on master.

- Integrated pinned master `8548173fc9efdc0fa07644fb92dcc0b6851a95e5`
with normal merges. Every branch passed generated-schema checks and its
target-branch migration-order gate. Existing SQL is unchanged; the 25
stack migrations follow master’s new migration.
- Duty-specific producer coverage, lifecycle tests, and earlier failure
records:
[2026-10-08-instance-sleep-and-scheduler-inventory.md](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/3507c6be1e054fdd93353d5dcf77d4899b44518f/doc/plans/2026-10-08-instance-sleep-and-scheduler-inventory.md),
[2026-10-24-recurring-server-sleep-stack.md](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/3507c6be1e054fdd93353d5dcf77d4899b44518f/doc/plans/2026-10-24-recurring-server-sleep-stack.md).
- Combined tip `51e6cbe67979b55b340ea9f0f434c5b5c682ccd6`: **355
startup/cancellation/recovery/dispatch/preservation tests**, **75
connection-management tests**, and production server typechecking pass.
These combined checks do not mean every intermediate PR independently
ran the full repository suite.
- Real master-to-stack database upgrade passes: **379 unchanged prior
migration receipts plus 25 new migrations**, with the gateway
responsibility fixture preserved.
- Owning-branch checks: 84 runner installation/settlement cases plus
runner typechecking and generated TypeScript/Rust profile agreement; 253
GitHub review workflow cases. Stop-attribution and held-worker readiness
regressions failed before their fixes.
- Failure accounting: the initial combined run passed 349 cases and
failed six idle assertions in a reused preservation database containing
old cancelled runs. Repeating the combined command with a fresh
preservation database passed. Earlier invalid project selection, merge
import/type errors, and the interrupted full local suite are not counted
as passing checks.
- **Latest-head CI and review remain required.** Prior CI findings
include GitHub idle observation, route teardown, attention cleanup,
touch-picker E2E, workspace health, and voice-cleanup timing; local
passes do not erase those failures. No full local repository-suite,
deployed sleep, fleet cost, or live Copilot qualification claim is made.

## Risks

- Signals cover supported service producers sharing the DB owner.
Independent SQL and another process require the existing
restart/reconciliation contract.
- Failed provider cancellation retains the existing failed-session and
historical-cleanup behavior. This PR changes scheduling, not teardown
authority.
- Active rows without an expiry preserve the existing behavior; no
deadline is invented. Cloud sleep eligibility remains conservative.
- The worker remains in the existing heartbeat-enabled startup path. It
does not change disabled-scheduler behavior or prove deployed
suspension.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning and code execution. The exact
serving model identifier and context window were not exposed.

Review follow-up: Added a real producer commit during a paused deadline
read. Updated startup assertions for coordinator ownership and removed
added code comments. The three affected suites pass (102 tests). The
separate login-cleanup suite also passes locally (16 tests); its prior
CI consume test timed out, and the fresh complete CI run passed.
External PostgreSQL tests now use the repository guard for disposable
databases ending in `_test`.

DottaandPaperclip 8548173fc9 feat(evals): connect hosted Runner costs and traces (#17889)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and measures their behavior with Runner
evaluations.
> - The cost controller, native tracing, private receipts and portable
runtime are on master.
> - The maintained live workflow still launches the provider CLI
directly.
> - Independent workers need one shared selection and disjoint budget
allocations.
> - Reports must keep unresolved allocations when a worker produces no
evidence.
> - This PR connects the maintained workflow to the existing controller
and private archive.
> - Operators can inspect known costs, conservative holds and trace
evidence before qualifying paid recurrence.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17452, #17469, #17493, #17506, #17523.

**Current behavior**

The live Runner workflow does not use the merged cost/tracing
controller. Attempt-only aggregation cannot reconstruct a campaign when
every worker archive is absent. Ordinary Actions artifacts in this
public repository are readable by authenticated public GitHub users.

**Proposed behavior**

Controlled runs prepare one manifest, bind every selected request,
enforce disjoint allocations and retain evidence in private storage. The
report starts from the full retained manifest. Missing workers keep
their allocations. The workflow rejects retries, unsupported providers,
changed requests and absent or stale operating bounds before provider
work.

**Reason and benefit**

The maintained workflow needs auditable costs and traces, including
failures and missing receipts, before paid recurrence can be qualified.

## What Changed

- Add controlled mode as the manual default and the only scheduled mode.
Legacy mode remains explicit for other manual provider qualifications.
- Prepare the full request selection and one shared manifest. Bind
current run, first attempt, code, definitions, executable hashes and
exact profile allocations.
- Verify the copied controller and manifest before provider credentials.
Require the controlled target to equal the trusted workflow revision
before private archive access.
- Reuse private archive retention for the controller policy, cell
attempts and canonical report. AWS credentials remain transfer-step
outputs. Controlled raw evidence is never uploaded as an Actions
artifact.
- Replay a retained manifest with partial or empty worker evidence.
Count operating holds once and preserve known partial charges.
- Pin the controller to an explicitly reviewed compatible lockfile
digest. Reject resolver or byte drift before a frozen, script-free
install into a job-local store. Record the lock digest in the runtime
receipt and verify it again in private preparation.
- Build the portable controller without secrets, private environment
access or OIDC. Private preparation verifies that artifact and performs
no dependency install. OIDC jobs use no mutable dependency resolution or
shared cache.
- Add synthetic source/copied-runtime tests, executable workflow
admission tests, private archive tests and an operator runbook.

## Verification

- Controller, campaign, portable runtime and workflow tests: 104 passed.
This includes real aggregation from an isolated reporter without source
dependencies, safe diagnostics, driver drift, distinct evidence binding
and reviewed-lock drift. Real private Codex/Claude requests also pass
through an independently verified copied runtime with fake transports.
- Private transport and workflow contracts: 35 passed. Executable/static
workflow guards: 13 passed.
- Paired private report tests: 166 passed; Evalbook discovery: 7 passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`: passed.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck`, `actionlint
.github/workflows/runner-protocol-live-evals.yml` and `git diff
--check`: passed.
- `pnpm test:run` hit repeated local embedded PostgreSQL initialization
failures in unrelated DB-dependent server tests. Its owned process tree
was stopped after preserving the log. This is a local verification
limitation; current-head CI remains required.
- An earlier head hit one unchanged Rust cleanup assertion. The exact
test passed locally and the final head passed the full Rust lane; the
initial failure log is retained.
- On the final head, one unchanged chat idle-queue assertion failed once
in CI. Its single scoped retry passed. All test jobs and the final
aggregate gate passed on commit
`2e328fa53dd296174d59d19f14f068aeeb0b82d8` (CI run 40535692048, attempt
2).
- No paid model, Braintrust or cloud calls. No live variables, secrets,
schedules or resources changed.

## Risks

- Controlled mode fails closed until a reviewed
`RUNNER_PROTOCOL_EVAL_CONTROLLER_POLICY_JSON` and a compatible private
eval SHA exist. `all` does not silently become a supported subset.
- The reviewed policy must cover setup, model requests, trace/gateway
processing, archive transfer and retained storage. Hash binding does not
establish vendor billing bounds. This PR does not enable recurrence or
release historical holds.
- The controlled policy must pin `controllerLockSha256`; it never
accepts a resolver-generated digest automatically. No lockfile is
committed. A changed compatible lock needs review.
- Legacy browser verification now requires the committed frozen
lockfile. A stale lockfile fails closed; controlled preparation has no
dependency install.
- Workflow cancellation can prevent the final report. The full manifest
is retained before provider work and remains the starting point for
reconciliation.
- The workflow exceeds 1,000 lines because the shared shard anchor,
dependencies, environment expressions and credential boundaries belong
to one declarative job graph. Request preparation, accounting, archive
safety and runtime verification stay in separately tested modules.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6-based coding agent with tool use and code execution.
The host does not expose an exact deployment model ID or context-window
size.

DottaandPaperclip db70c5acd9 fix(runner): retain startup Stop and exhaust reconnect recovery (#17812)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Operators must be able to stop a remote runner while it starts.
> - Remote artifact staging can finish after the transport's bounded
cleanup wait.
> - The launcher discarded an early Stop request and could dispatch
after staging.
> - A separate path missed the runner's plain-text reconnect expiry
receipt.
> - This change retains startup cancellation and ends an exhausted
reconnect incident.
> - Public package imports and a source-bound profile keep the
regressions buildable and admission checks intact.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related work: Refs #16835, Refs #16843, Refs #16855.

**What happened?**

The HTTP Stop route returned 200 and recorded a cancelled run. After
bounded bootstrap cleanup, releasing artifact staging still dispatched
one launch RPC. A separate reconnect test accepted a replacement after
the runner reported that its grace period had expired.

The first PR head also failed CI. The HTTP regression imported Runner
source across the server TypeScript boundary. Its event receipt mock
read a field that is not present on both event forms. The changed
transport also invalidated the pinned Copilot source identity.

**Expected behavior**

A cancelled launch must remain cancelled after staging. An exhausted
reconnect receipt must end that incident. Regression tests must use
public package contracts. The source identity must cover the changed
transport without replacing historical profile bytes.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Hold the remote launcher's artifact staging promise.
2. Call the board Stop route and let bootstrap cleanup reach its
preparation deadline.
3. Release staging and count launch RPCs.
4. For reconnect expiry, end an owned runner with its coded or
plain-text expiry message.
5. Run the server typecheck and the Copilot profile identity check.

## What Changed

- Retain cancellation through staging, trace publication and an
in-flight launch RPC.
- Apply a deferred signal through the existing identity checks when the
launch identity arrives.
- Preserve an earlier KILL request when a later TERM request arrives.
- Recognize both coded and plain-text reconnect expiry receipts.
- Test the real board Stop route and heartbeat cancellation with
PostgreSQL. Use public Runner exports and handle both event receipt
forms.
- Generate source-bound Copilot profile v65 after integrating current
master. Preserve exact published v62, v63 and v64 fixtures, retain the
earlier v63 reconnect candidate as historical evidence, and reject
historical profiles for a current launch.
- Document process evidence, retained uncertainty and the limits of
cleanup and continuation evidence.

## Verification

- At current integration head
`2b96ee3adcb3be642c538436113e1159d92f843d`, launcher and HTTP Stop
regressions: 21 passed. This includes the existing process-generation
and exact-exit safety cases on the integrated base. The HTTP case
includes bootstrap expiry; it is not isolated Stop-only settlement
proof.
- At current integration head, reconnect expiry regressions: 2 passed,
for coded and plain-text receipts.
- At current integration head
`2b96ee3adcb3be642c538436113e1159d92f843d`, the Copilot installation and
identity suite passed all 63 tests and the canonical generator check
passed. Before regeneration, the merged-tree admission test failed with
a transport source hash mismatch and the generator reported a stale
identity. Published v62, v63 and v64 bytes remain unchanged; the prior
reconnect candidate is preserved separately. The v62 fixture SHA-256
remains
`faa4d1b35267b54e134a8e0c84586fe1196d8fad5525cb53aa195aae53ca6e83`.
- Current integration head passed all 86 focused tests, the full
recursive repository typecheck and the root repository build. The normal
server typecheck also passed, including its full Runner release rebuild.
- Historical full recursive repository typecheck and the root repository
build passed at `187bb85b4fa1fbd2ffaec992650a1c8557df9ebe`. Server
typecheck also passed through the normal package script and a direct
full server TypeScript check. The prerequisite full Runner release build
passed.
- The historical HTTP baseline returned 200 and dispatched one late
launch RPC. The repair returned 200 and dispatched zero in the bounded
fixture.
- Earlier failures remain part of the evidence: the first head failed
TypeScript package boundaries and source identity. One local HTTP run
failed before migrations; it passed after the disposable test database
received normal migrations. Earlier sandbox-wide checks ran out of
memory or lacked Cargo. Those runs did not pass.
- Historical head `187bb85b4fa1fbd2ffaec992650a1c8557df9ebe` received
Greptile 5/5 with no actionable findings and all hosted gates passed in
run `40412261957`: 53 successful check runs, four expected skips and a
successful legacy Snyk status. Those results predate the master
integration and do not establish current-head readiness.
- Current integration head `2b96ee3adcb3be642c538436113e1159d92f843d`
includes master `bd382eee536f4ada680072b1cc19100163c3d04a`. All
current-head hosted gates passed in run `40512885858`: 53 successful
check runs, four expected skips and a successful legacy Snyk status,
with zero pending or failed checks. Build passed at 13:42:36 UTC and the
final `ci / verify` aggregate (job `122224566238`) passed at 13:43:00
UTC on 2026-10-27. Greptile reviewed exact head
`2b96ee3adcb3be642c538436113e1159d92f843d` at 5/5 (updated 2026-10-27
13:36:41 UTC), with no actionable findings and no open inline threads.
The hosted partitions passed full-suite verification, including browser
and release gates. The wider qualification limits below remain in force.
- Local setup on current master initially failed frozen install with
`ERR_PNPM_LOCKFILE_CONFIG_MISMATCH` because `patchedDependencies`
differs from the lockfile. Pinned pnpm 9.15.4 hydrated dependencies with
`--no-frozen-lockfile --ignore-scripts`; its generated lockfile change
was restored. This PR changes no lockfile or workflow.
- Reproduce the Stop tests from `server`: `pnpm exec vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.test.ts -t 'remote
runner process supervision|HTTP Stop during remote runner staging'`. The
test accepts a guarded disposable `_test` database through
`PAPERCLIP_TEST_DATABASE_URL`, or starts its normal embedded database.
- Reproduce reconnect tests from `packages/paperclip-runner`: `pnpm exec
vitest run src/live/runnerd-codex-transport.test.ts -t 'does not restart
an exhausted reconnect'`. Build the normal test runner first.
- Reproduce profile checks from `packages/paperclip-runner`: `node
scripts/copilot-profile-identity.mjs --check` and `pnpm exec vitest run
src/drivers/acpx/copilot-installation.test.ts`.

## Risks

- The wider qualification is incomplete. Verified-stopped replacement
and concurrent recovery plus Stop each entered two physical provider
processes. Both fail the original requirement of at most one physical
provider entry. Passing fixture assertions do not make all incident
scenarios accepted.
- HTTP concurrent recovery, shared provider-attempt accounting,
server-admitted restored continuation, live-provider behavior and
product cleanup settlement remain unrun or unproved.
- Accepting a deferred signal is not proof that a dispatched process
stopped. The existing monitor remains authoritative.
- The HTTP test uses the real route, heartbeat cancellation and
PostgreSQL state. Execution lease and event ports, plus the launch RPC,
are controlled fixtures. Bootstrap expiry participates in this case.
- The local incident matrix uses an installed runner binary and a
scripted provider. It does not qualify a live provider. Local fixture
teardown does not certify product cleanup settlement.
- This change does not authorize historical turn replay. It does not
change ownership, pause, approval or provider-attempt gates.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family. The runtime does not expose the exact
serving model ID or context-window size. The agent used reasoning,
repository inspection, shell execution and connected GitHub tools.

DottaandPaperclip 13709b4c7a feat(connections): let agents configure connections within delegated authority (#17737)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Connections provide governed tools, chat channels, model accounts,
and gateways.
> - Several management routes require a human board actor even when an
agent has the required grant.
> - Default agents must configure these resources within the responsible
user's authority.
> - This pull request adds a shared authorization path to the existing
REST and native API surface.
> - Human authentication, execution approvals, and local host boundaries
remain enforced.
> - The benefit is that a standard agent can complete authorized setup
with a bounded human handoff.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Server authorization, connection services, shared contracts, native API
discovery, database schema.

**Problem or motivation**

Connection administration is available in the web app but often
unavailable to agents. Agent grants, responsible-user authority,
credential ownership, and actor attribution need separate checks.
Opening gateway-token creation also requires preserving the issuing
agent's delegated authority during token use.

**Proposed solution**

Use the existing authorization evaluator for every connection family.
Enforce current responsible-user authority, effective trust, grant
scope, resource visibility, and target-agent access. Keep existing agent
grants unchanged. Expose authorized configuration through default
`search_api` and `call_api`. Save human authentication steps and let
agents continue after completion.

**Roadmap alignment**

This change completes the API access path for the existing Connected
Apps, Personal & Shared AI Accounts, and governed MCP Gateway
capabilities in `ROADMAP.md`. It follows the maintainer's requested
design. Related work: #11899 enforces connection execution access and
creator/manager rules; this PR extends agent management across
connection families. It does not replace that execution-policy work.

## What Changed

- Add shared connection management context and mandatory
responsible-user, trust, scope, and target checks.
- Allow authorized agents to configure tool, chat/email, GitHub/Slack,
AI, profile, and gateway resources through existing routes.
- Preserve human credential ownership and record the actual agent,
responsible user, and run or key in audit data.
- Preserve saved browser authentication handoffs and callback session
checks.
- Bind agent-issued durable gateway tokens to their responsible user and
recheck delegated authority at use.
- Add explicit REST transport and management capability metadata,
built-in guidance, and sensitive-response handling.
- Intersect caller and endpoint-agent Slack test/invitation policies,
including independent and shared rates. Require the addressed human’s
current endpoint identity link before completing identity handoffs.
- Add production-authenticated integration scenarios. Companion #17739
contains the saved setup UI (including the required human
import/rotation step), product and permission documentation,
catalog/Vercel credential and callback ownership, and operation maps to
keep each review below 100 files. Both PRs must ship together; merge
this implementation first, then its companion.

## Verification

- Current implementation head:
`2ecd6451d0d0c8d82121a4e3fa4ce94c5befbbd6`, including master
`ea727dc3c2`, 99 files. The latest follow-up fixes the two valid
findings from the preceding f9 review. Exact-head Greptile has completed
at5/5 with no findings and Superagent passed. Full exact-head Linux CI
workflow40446606056 completed SUCCESS; only the queued external
Paperclip Review remains pending; earlier Linux passes do not qualify
this successor.
- Latest preserved-stack verification passed **2,165 tests** in fresh
PostgreSQL: **70 actual-auth scenarios**, 27 OpenAPI contracts, 2,022
native API tests and 46 saved GitHub wizard cases. **141 existing
gateway/policy acceptance tests** also passed. Workspace
typecheck/build, maps and token gates passed. The first workspace
typecheck was blocked by sandbox tsx IPC permissions; its authorized
rerun passed. This is focused local evidence; the full Linux CI matrix
is still required.
- Issuer/target gateway policy regressions were red before the fix. Both
decisions now intersect, including Block/Ask first/rates, same
credential identity and current token/user/agent authority after
approval. Invocations retain their token and actual requesting agent;
deleted tokens fail closed. Thirteen actual-auth cases cover revocation,
narrowed scope, approvals, shared rates and board compatibility.
Intermediate missing-token attribution, review-context and
implicit-session actor failures remain in the qualification record; all
final cases pass.
- Activity pagination now retains a bounded cursor across private-only
windows. The actual-JWT regression reaches three older readable events
after 27 private ones without exposing private details. A native
device-login regression was red for plaintext receipts; local check and
test-call results now use existing protected-response handling. The
passing actual-auth case proves encrypted persistence, exact replay,
redacted history and no response asset.

- Previous-head `5b55195593` Linux CI initially failed e2e shard 4/8 in
the existing connection-intent continuation test: periodic recovery
queued a repair at 01:21:47, the scripted journey completed the task at
01:21:48, and the extra queued run was cancelled at 01:21:49 because the
task was terminal. The assertion selected that latest cancelled run.
GitHub refused the first attempt while the workflow was nonterminal.
After completion, the single evidence-supported failed-job rerun was
accepted as **attempt 2** on the same head (workflow 40431202466). The
failed shard and final E2E aggregate passed on attempt 2, and the
complete Linux workflow for that head is successful. The original
failure remains part of qualification. No additional unchanged-code
rerun will be used for this failure.

- Companion CI also has an unchanged login-cleanup idleness timeout,
retained in its qualification record. That same 16-case suite passed in
this parent Linux run and a fresh local database. Both preceding
workflows passed after their single failed-job reruns as attempt 2; the
original failures remain recorded. No additional unchanged-code rerun
was used.

- Migration `0380_broken_aqueduct.sql` was regenerated through the
repository workflow after master took 0379 for project Git
authorization. It adds the responsible-user column with `IF NOT EXISTS`,
preserves upstream migrations, and satisfies snapshot retention and
migration safety checks.
- Upstream published Copilot v62 and v63 identities remain byte-for-byte
unchanged. The combined guidance is now v64, digest
`sha256:22e31f95ef972bcead98a4a707c9f33433558fd111e390e027a2bbb4346e112a`.
The normal shared TypeScript/Rust identity check and **61 Copilot
installation tests passed**. The old source-identity assertion first
failed against unchanged published v63; regenerating a new v64 preserves
the published release.
- Workspace `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`, map validation, and UI
token gates passed on the final combined stack after the upstream merge.
Node 24.22.1 / pnpm 9.15.4 were used.
- **Earlier 82 API/OpenAPI tests passed** in fresh PostgreSQL 18: 55
assembled-server scenarios and 27 contracts. They use real persistent
agent keys, run JWTs, human sessions, production defaults, and
deterministic provider fixtures. No actor injection establishes access.
- The new email regression was red before per-account scope filtering.
The Arcade regression was red before human ownership and inventory-key
fixes; it also verifies actual-agent audit identity and a human-session
inventory read. The activity regression measured **200 authorization
checks before the fix and one afterward** for the same one-item page.
- **82 GitHub UI tests passed**, including all three new
failed-replacement regressions that were red before their fix. The UI
preserves an earlier copy only after confirming its committed
generation. Changed or unreadable results block copying and reconnecting
until reconciled. Human-only secret responses now include their
nonsecret committed generation.
- Private test status now rechecks the originating principal and linked
task, including mandatory agent/responsible-user privacy. Cross-agent
tests require the full caller tool access decision and the same
credential identity, regardless of auth label; caller and target
policies/approvals and rate limits apply before execution and after
human approval. A profile-only precondition was found to reject valid
allow-policy and scoped-grant access and has been removed. Both
permitted-access cases and a no-auth-label identity regression were red
before the correction; caller-specific Block still prevents provider
execution. The private-status regression was also red before its fix.
- The tool-activity regression measured 100 capability decisions and 102
run captures on a 100-event page before the fix. It now uses two task
decisions and at most two captures while retaining the same 50 visible
events, private-event filtering, and 403 after audit-grant revocation.
The regression was red before request-context reuse and task-decision
sharing; final server typecheck/build also pass.
- Generic chat configure/reconnect now hands agent-supplied verification
credentials to the addressed human before provider work or vault
changes. Actual key/JWT regressions were red for Slack signing-key
replacement and generic channel secret-reference rebinding. They now
prove unchanged refs and vaulted signing value, human setup, permitted
agent bot-token repair, and governed test messages. All 82 API/OpenAPI
cases pass in fresh PostgreSQL. Eight native receipt protections and
final server typecheck/build also pass.
- The preceding review found that old healthy state could retire a
credential-entry card before a human changed anything. The actual-JWT
regression was red. Saved field generations now change only with
protected values and commit with refs plus a verification fence; retries
retain the baseline. Old health, bot-token repair and unchanged entry
stay pending. New signing verification and current authority permit
continuation. A separate red race proved that user revocation during
provider authentication could return 403 after refs changed; authority
is now checked before persistence and inside the credential transaction.
The final 82 API/OpenAPI cases, four neighboring real-database
Slack/GitHub lifecycle cases, and final server typecheck/build pass.
- A preceding full run crossed a rate-window boundary. Database rows
prove one consumed slot at 23:35 and another at 23:36 for the same
policy/bucket. Only Date is frozen in the rate test cases; transport and
asynchronous timers remain real. Production rate behavior is unchanged,
and the final full run passes. An intermediate fixture failure that
overwrote hidden generation metadata with an API projection is retained
in the qualification record.
- Linux CI on an earlier head found two rate-admission assertions that
omitted the newly persisted bucket key. The failures were reproduced
locally; both assertions now verify the exact actor/tool bucket and all
49 policy-service tests pass. The companion qualification record retains
the initial and intermediate failures. Catalog creator attribution is
preserved in the companion to keep this implementation review at 99
files.
- The latest review reproduced three regressions before repair: complete
human replacements failed on unavailable old signing secrets, fresh
GitHub links incorrectly selected reconnect, and different
credential-entry requests shared an idempotency key. Each old protected
ref now has a narrow known-unavailable fallback; unexpected resolver
failures and company/scope violations still abort. Fresh imports keep
their credential form, configured endpoints keep reconnect, and
canonical field sets/completion modes distinguish handoffs while
matching retries retain their baseline. All 55 actual-auth scenarios and
27 separately run OpenAPI contracts pass, as do server typecheck/build.
Companion #17739 also passes all 41 wizard tests including actual
fresh-form submission, UI typecheck, maps and token gates. Earlier red
results and a mistyped OpenAPI filename are retained in qualification.
- The configured GitHub handoff regression was red in the
browser-component tests and actual-auth link/persistence tests. Saved
links now name requested fields and all/any completion mode; the
companion form submits those supplied fields through reconnect and
retains other saved credentials. Webhook/client-secret reconnect remains
human-only; first-setup secret restrictions remain. All 46 wizard tests
pass, including combined modes and legacy links. A duplicate review
referenced the older companion bf760912; the current form is already
fixed, linked in the reply, and its thread is resolved.
- Linux CI on bf760912 failed automatic Slack provisioning because vault
persistence cleared an already verified manifest-update challenge. The
same regression was reproduced locally. The provider-owned helper now
preserves proof only for the current signing fingerprint and callback
URL. Eight existing compatibility cases pass, including this case and
initial GitHub secret rejection. The first uncommitted GitHub-field
variant also failed that initial boundary and was narrowed to reconnect;
both failures remain in qualification.
- The upstream merge conflicted only in generated migration metadata.
Upstream 0379 is preserved, normal generation/pruning produced 0380, and
two repeated applications of the idempotent additive SQL passed. The
final combined stack passed **128 tests** (55 actual-auth, 27 OpenAPI
and 46 wizard cases) in fresh PostgreSQL. Eight Google UI cases also
pass; the two protocol cases could not initialize embedded PostgreSQL in
this fresh local attempt. Their earlier passing evidence remains
historical; fresh Linux CI must execute them. Vercel personal credential
attribution is preserved in companion #17739 with its other
ownership/consent follow-ups, keeping this PR at 99 files.
- The suite covers fresh defaults, restricted users/agents, scopes,
personal isolation, token revocation, human handoffs, callback replay,
execution approvals, authorized self-targeted policy changes,
self-approval denial, and current authority before commit. Reproduce API
checks with `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/connection-management.integration.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts`, using a fresh database
through `PAPERCLIP_CONNECTION_MANAGEMENT_TEST_DATABASE_URL` or the
default embedded test database.
- Companion #17739 also records consent separately from token refresh so
saved Google choices survive refresh. Its eight service-picker and two
local-HTTP OAuth tests pass; both new UI cases were red before the fix.
Normal migration generation confirms no SQL change is needed for the
additive JSON metadata.
- The integration module shares one assembled server, authentication
factory, and provider lifecycle to preserve the
HTTP-to-vault-to-task-continuation proof. A reused external database
caused a Slack fixture identity conflict; the fresh final run passed.
Earlier fixture/transport and contract-update failures remain in the
companion qualification record.
- The broad local `pnpm test:run` attempt remains blocked by macOS
embedded PostgreSQL's host semaphore limit. It is not a clean pass. The
fresh Linux CI matrix must complete. Provider fixtures do not prove live
setup or an empirical LLM success rate.
- A current-head completed Paperclip assessment is not yet recorded. Its
earlier external recovery boundary has not been bypassed, and no
incomplete assessment is reported as passing. The user authorized both
merges when checks pass; merge this implementation first, then replay,
retarget, and requalify companion #17739 against the squash-merged
master.

- After the master refresh, local workspace typecheck/build, **97
actual-auth/OpenAPI cases** and **141 gateway/policy cases** pass. The
original fixed database port was occupied; Docker assigned a free
localhost port. The first neighbor setup command could not resolve root
`tsx`, leaving its schema uninitialized; the built database package
migrated the separate fixture and all unchanged cases passed. Both setup
failures are retained in qualification. Fresh Linux CI remains required;
no full local test-sweep pass is claimed.

- The f9 Greptile review scored **2/5** for two reproduced findings:
Slack test sends skipped the caller’s tool policy, and healthy App
credentials completed an unconfirmed identity handoff. Both are fixed in
this head and have resolved evidence threads
([Slack](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/17737#discussion_r4384927765),
[identity](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/17737#discussion_r4384927895)).
Actual key/JWT cases cover twelve Slack caller/target/recipient
combinations; the human-session GitHub OAuth callback alone remains
pending until explicit confirmation. All **99 API/OpenAPI tests** (72
actual-auth + 27 contracts), workspace typecheck and build pass. On the
combined companion, all four focused cases (including the twelve Slack
combinations), typecheck/build and maps also pass. The continuation
suite’s 50 embedded-PG cases were skipped because its database could not
start locally; fresh Linux CI must run them. Initial fixture
credential-collision and audit-projection assertion failures are
retained with the red reproductions in the companion qualification
record. No full local sweep or live consent is claimed.

## Risks

- The maintainer explicitly confirmed authorized policy administration,
including self-targeted changes that loosen controls. These writes
require management grants and the responsible user’s current authority.
Agents cannot approve their own governed action requests or edit their
own principal permission grants. The actual-auth regression exercises
both permitted administration and those denials.
- This is a broad authorization change. Incorrect scope or owner
resolution could deny permitted setup or expose another user's
resources. Integration cases cover both permitted and denied requests
with actual authentication.
- The additive nullable gateway-token column does not infer identities
for legacy clients or backfill agent grants. Legacy agent tokens without
a responsible user fail closed.
- Provider fixtures test supported setup and callback contracts. They do
not prove live provider availability.

## Model Used

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

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 0cb3fc7db5 fix(runner): retain ACPX transport failure details (#17837)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Paperclip Runner reports provider failures to the execution and
recovery services.
> - Those services read the terminal event's structured `error` field.
> - The ACPX transport-failure path wrote its code and message only at
the top level.
> - The session facade therefore replaced that cause with `error: null`
and the generic message "Provider turn failed".
> - This pull request uses the existing structured error contract while
retaining the old fields.
> - Recovery can retain the actual redacted cause without reopening the
failed provider or assuming a retry is safe.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A native ACPX run can lose its failure details between runnerd and the
session facade. The transport-failure producer emits a failed turn with
top-level `code` and `message`. The facade reads `error`. The server
receives a generic provider failure and cannot use the original cause to
explain or classify recovery.

**Expected behavior**

Retain the transport code and redacted cause in the structured terminal
error. Keep failed sessions closed, provider termination unproven, and
automatic replay disabled.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Open a native ACPX session and start a turn.
2. Send malformed activity from the sidecar after it acknowledges the
turn.
3. Poll the native provider events.
4. Observe that `turn.failed.error` is absent even though the producer
has a transport code and cause.

Refs: #16366, #17543. Those changes cover legacy process-session
diagnostics and session-ensure errors. This change repairs the native
ACPX polling terminal contract.

## What Changed

- Add the existing transport code and redacted message to the terminal
event's structured `error` field.
- Mark that error as non-recoverable. Keep the previous top-level fields
for existing readers.
- Add a real sidecar fault fixture and a native-provider regression. It
checks one failed terminal, retained error details, a closed session,
and no provider reopening.
- Document the failure contract and verification scope in execution
semantics and the recovery map.

## Verification

- Red: the new fault test failed because the structured transport error
code was null on the original code.
- Green: all 26 native-provider integration tests pass with the fix.
- Three session-facade terminal tests and three native-runtime
provider-failure classification tests pass.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass.
- Hosted test partitions, native Runner checks, typecheck, build,
browser shards and canary passed. Two final aggregate jobs received no
runner for several minutes. The first CI attempt was cancelled after
saving its status, and only those two cancelled jobs were resubmitted.
Both aggregate jobs passed on attempt 2. The current head has 55
successful checks, four expected skips and successful Snyk status.
- `git diff --check`, `node scripts/check-module-boundaries.mjs`, and
`node scripts/check-maps.mjs` pass.
- The full local Vitest suite is not run for this patch. The local
filesystem fell below 500 MiB free during verification. The preceding
full-suite attempt crashed embedded PostgreSQL; focused checks and CI
are used without claiming that attempt passed.
- Live incident: verified the exact predecessor sandbox was destroyed
and workspace recovery completed. An audited user retry through the
normal task-retry service started one new native run. That attempt
preserved the original question but failed before provider startup with
a missing workspace-sync descriptor binding. The startup race is fixed
separately in #17838. A later audited retry completed successfully,
saved its useful answer and restored its workspace. The agent API
handoff failed; an audited operator repair through the normal issue
service completed the required user assignment in Review without
repeating the comment or provider work. This verifies recovery admission
on the existing deployment; the new Runner change is not deployed yet.
- Evidence limit: the historical terminal had `error: null` and its raw
sidecar frame was not retained. Fault injection proves this producer
defect and the same loss of diagnostics. It does not establish which
transport fault caused the historical turn to end.

## Risks

- Recovery now receives a specific transport failure code. The error
remains non-recoverable and `providerTerminalObserved` remains false.
Stop proof, effect reconciliation, workspace preservation, retry limits,
and normal execution authority still govern any successor.
- This change preserves diagnostics. It does not make a malformed or
lost provider connection healthy.
- No schema migration, credentials, provider selection, or model
settings change.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, source inspection, tool use,
and code execution. The runtime does not expose the exact model ID or
context window size.

DottaandPaperclip dcfc2acfa8 Preserve complete bounded OpenCode MCP tool results (#17825)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/34/changes/paperclip/34
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their governed tools.
> - Native OpenCode receives tool results through a Runner-owned MCP
bridge.
> - The bridge cut serialized results at 64 KiB, even inside a JSON
string.
> - A tool could finish while its saved OpenCode output lost files and
receipts.
> - Native app results already use bounded results and saved-result
pages.
> - This change preserves complete JSON within a bounded output limit.
> - Agents can read the result without repeating the completed action.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

The OpenCode MCP bridge sliced serialized JSON at 65,536 characters. A
large file-list result became invalid JSON in OpenCode's saved output.
The tool execution itself had completed.

**Expected behavior**

The bridge must deliver complete bounded JSON. A delivery limit must
produce an explicit error, rather than a partial success value. A
repeated call identity must not execute the action again.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Return a structured result with 27 file entries and duplicated
text/data representations larger than 64 KiB.
2. Call the tool through the actual HTTP MCP bridge.
3. Parse the returned text as JSON. The old source fails at position
65,536.

Related: #17740 changed assigned-tool catalog delivery. This PR repairs
result delivery and does not change the tool catalog or authority.

## What Changed

- Replace JSON slicing with complete serialization and a 1 MiB UTF-8
output limit.
- Bound serialization traversal, including escaped strings and many
small fields.
- Keep the existing native 500 KB result/page and saved-artifact
contracts.
- Report oversized delivery with a warning that the action may already
have completed. Keep call-identity replay on the original execution.
- Add real HTTP regressions and document the transport limit.

## Verification

- Red before fix: the large-result HTTP regression fails with an
unterminated JSON string at position 65,536.
- 91 focused MCP, OpenCode driver and continuation assertions pass on
Node 24.22.1. They cover escaped UTF-8 pages, oversized delivery,
authentication, cancellation and duplicate-call execution.
- Workspace typecheck and build pass.
- Actual native Rust → fixed MCP bridge → OpenCode 1.18.34 →
`openrouter/deepseek/deepseek-v4.1-flash-1017` passed with a public
synthetic 27-file result. One assigned read produced a 281,375-byte
saved JSON file. The model used Bash/Python to parse all filenames and
both unpredictable receipt fields. One finish completed the turn.
- The native probe used a synthetic gateway and a mocked completion
acknowledgment. It does not prove hosted deployment, board finalization
or a particular upstream model vendor.
- The full default test attempt is failed/incomplete. It was stopped
after repeated embedded PostgreSQL bootstrap failures and skipped
database suites. Its 15 warm-workspace cases pass unchanged on isolated
PostgreSQL 18. A controlled default-database rerun fails before the test
body when embedded PostgreSQL cannot start after five attempts. The test
source is byte-identical to the base commit. The failed attempt remains
recorded.
- The final test-only commit checks a 500 KB escaped producer page
inside the actual controller text envelope. The production bridge hash
still matches the native proof. Its 91 focused tests and package
TypeScript check pass.

- Current-head verification (`73d18ca2`): 53 CI checks passed and two
conditional Storybook checks skipped. Greptile is 5/5 on this exact head
with no review threads. The failed/incomplete full local attempt and the
controlled passing suites above remain separate evidence.

## Risks

- Larger complete results use more bounded serialization memory than the
old truncated output.
- A bridge result above 1 MiB fails delivery. Native app results and
saved-result pages are bounded at 500 KB before this bridge. The
existing artifact protocol handles larger results.
- A failed delivery cannot prove whether an upstream action took effect.
The error forbids repeating it, and identical call identities retain the
original execution.
- This change does not alter model routing, admitted tools, credentials
or trust policy. Hosted rollout and incident recovery remain separate
verification steps.

DottaandPaperclip 208a093d19 fix(chat): preserve resumed review waits and retry newer saved input (#17725)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/36/changes/paperclip/36
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - GitHub review agents publish findings and wait for an authorized
reply or head change.
> - Review tools could retain the requester after resume while
completion lost that same wait proof.
> - A yielded report could then queue its own continuation or repeat a
missing-wait error.
> - Ordinary Retry could also select an older failed turn while a newer
saved request had no admission.
> - This change shares the existing authority proofs and canonical
admission owners.
> - Current access, publication, execution and budget gates remain
required.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17318. Builds on the canonical saved-input retry owner in #17733.
Related #16550 covers deferred legacy comments after ownership waits.
The separate recovery repair in #17724 owns the cleanup-to-saved-input
handoff; this PR does not add a second admission owner.

A resumed review could publish an assessment, then turn its
`response_wake` into an immediate `issue_status_changed` wake. A
provider that omitted its continuation could instead repeat a completion
error. A newer linked-human message saved during a budget hold could
also remain unstarted because Retry selected the older failed source.

## What Changed

- Resolve passive review waits through the accepted requester ledger
used by GitHub tools. Require the latest reviewed head, exact company,
task, agent, repository and processed publication under current access.
- Fill omitted/null yielded continuation from that server proof. Permit
an inherited normal tree resume only through its accepted parent
identity. Permit an ordinary follow-up only after this run has a
processed useful reply linked to its exact inbound message. Reject
acknowledgements, partial assessments, pending or uncertain writes as
that reply proof.
- Recheck the same run/review/head/source proof during feedback,
finalization and final status commit. Preserve explicit malformed-input
rejection and Done policy. Add no monitor permission or publication
grant.
- Keep heartbeat and publication projections narrow. Preserve both
published Copilot v62 identities and generate source-bound v63 from the
pinned merged base. No v63 live qualification is claimed.
- Certify the structured isolated-directory binding failure only at its
pre-allocation boundary and only through canonical task Retry. Other
workspace validation reasons and unknown effects remain denied.
- Route Retry to eligible newer saved input through the existing
canonical owner. Preserve the old result and skipped receipt. Require
current principal, source, App, runtime fence, budget, native ownership
and exact cleanup proof.
- Recover absent historical App metadata only through an earlier trusted
processed response receipt and an immutable non-null endpoint claim.
Explicit malformed or conflicting metadata stays denied.
- Revalidate execution through the exact claimed wake, coalesced task
Retry and resolved user-continuation receipt after admission. A second
normal Retry can recover the exact never-started authorization failure
with unchanged saved input. Require empty execution evidence, exact
diagnostics and no allocated or active executor.
- Explain when a recorded result prevents exact replay. Ordinary board
Retry directs a new task message to continue from saved work. Inherited
requester identity alone never grants replay.
- Keep accepted board-message preparation failures with the canonical
task Retry owner. Certify the exact unchanged comment, original user
wake, accepted same-user identity and absence of provider execution. Pin
that source, recheck it at admission, and bind identity initialization
to the coalesced intent and exact claimed successor receipt.
Uncertifiable sources retain an actionable fresh-message refusal.
- Return safe named authority categories for board Retry refusals.
Update execution documentation and capability maps. Add no schema or
polling loop.

## Verification

- A fresh external review request exposed a separate isolated-directory
preparation failure before allocation. Its first normal Retry saved an
intent but admitted no successor. This follow-up certifies only that
exact structured preparation boundary through the existing canonical
Retry owner, with trusted failed settlement and no executor, lease,
result or output. A real HTTP/queue regression reproduces the missing
successor before the repair. Twenty-three current-source safety cases
and the final 98-case Retry/HTTP group pass, including a fresh click
after a denied intent, source revocation, accepted results and the older
direct API remaining denied. The warning case uses actual configuration
preparation and production event append; unknown warning shape or
provider provenance stays denied. Full workspace typecheck, build, maps
and diff checks pass. Renewed hosted normal Retry now succeeds on the
final combined source: it preserves the exact saved request and linked
requester, starts one native successor in a fresh attempt workspace,
publishes the current-head 2/5 assessment and commits In review with
passive response wake.

- A later hosted normal Retry published a low-score assessment but lost
its accepted source identity because the previous attempt failed before
identity initialization. It repeated continuation errors, then submitted
Done. This is failed acceptance, not a successful qualification. The
initializer now retains the exact source only after execution-time
failed-chat Retry authorization; generic Retry and Done policy are
unchanged. A real queue/initializer regression fails with a null source
on the previous code and passes with the newer saved source. Two real
database completion cases verify that source yields the authoritative
wait and commits In review. Renewed hosted normal Retry now retains the
accepted source and exposes the authoritative current-review wait. It
completed after two semantic feedback corrections (wrong contract
revision, then wrong criterion IDs); the correct contract was present in
emitted input. The third finish was accepted and committed In review,
with no missing-wait loop or Done escalation.
- Repeated board-message preparation failures now walk their canonical
intent, failed dispatch and accepted parent identity, rechecking each
contained predecessor. A production queue regression fails the second
ordinary HTTP Retry before the repair and passes afterward. Changed
source, contradictory execution evidence and cyclic receipts remain
denied; traversal stops after twenty links.

- New inherited omission cases failed before the repair. The final full
PostgreSQL 18 wait/status suite passes **252 tests** under Node 24.22.
It covers omitted/null input, malformed-first recovery, same-head
resume, exact-source replies, changed heads, revoked access,
pending/uncertain/mixed publications, final commit revalidation, no
duplicate review and no self-wake.
- **15 existing publication tests passed before the pinned merge** on a
separate fresh database. They retain default partial-delivery and
failure-fallback behavior. Context reads remain below the unchanged 16
KiB heartbeat and publication response limits with large saved output
present.
- Saved-input tests cover a real signed PR webhook, production
accounting-budget refusal, normal policy recovery and canonical Retry.
Historical producer-shaped tests prove the missing-App case red, then
check trusted prior receipts and malformed, late, revoked or mismatched
proof. A broader order-coupled test was reproduced on the prior source;
its global fault injector now targets its own authorization query. The
43-case sequence passes without changing production behavior or its
safety assertions.
- New signed-ingress and real heartbeat execution tests reproduced the
admitted-successor failure, then the next normal Retry failure. The
final pinned merged source passes 249 full GitHub review/publication and
Retry cases on a fresh database, including all 49 saved-input cases. A
separate 74-case Retry/HTTP run also passes. Exact dispatch negatives
cover source, company, agent, task, successor, receipt, pause,
assignment, accepted success, controller and cleanup proof. Bootstrap
contradictions remain denied. The canonical Retry suite passes 16 cases
through its supported external PostgreSQL test connection.
- The normal board HTTP route reproduced the unusable inherited-result
refusal. It now returns actionable guidance without starting a
successor. The actual UI Retry hook and banner tests pass 12 cases.
- A production-shaped accepted board comment followed by a pre-provider
qualification failure reproduced HTTP 409 before the repair. The final
real HTTP/queue test certifies one canonical successor and preserves the
accepted identity. It rejects changed source, actor, task, agent,
result, controller, process, profile, allocation and receipt evidence. A
post-acceptance source change keeps the same intent pending. Execution
revalidation rejects removed or mismatched proof. The probe stops
deliberately after production identity initialization; it does not claim
provider execution. The final source passes the 75-case Retry group, the
focused two-case board/inherited-policy group and 19 canonical Retry
cases. Full workspace typecheck, build and map checks pass.
- Full workspace `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass. Map,
module-boundary and diff checks pass. Full local `pnpm test:run` remains
unverified. The 256-case explicit-native suite cannot initialize its
packaged PostgreSQL because libzstd is absent; an existing
command-scoped fallback did not resolve it. Current-head remote
full-suite checks are required. Merged-source full GitHub+Retry (249),
separate Retry/HTTP (74), full wait/status (252), profile/history and
completion (75), and visible Retry hook/banner (12) checks pass. The
fresh owned PostgreSQL 18 databases applied all 377 migrations.
- Actual Rust Runner, OpenCode 1.18.34 and exact DeepSeek used unchanged
production-generated synthetic contexts. Resume finished with an
explicit server wait. The author-reply trial omitted continuation twice:
its first report failed the existing empty-criteria check; the corrected
second report still omitted continuation and received the exact server
wait. It completed once with no missing-wait loop or Done escalation.
Controller acknowledgments were synthetic; these probes do not establish
hosted publication or board state.
- Hosted combined testing proved automatic admission of the exact saved
author reply, a useful GitHub answer and committed passive wait. It
required two malformed-continuation rejections before a nullish fallback
succeeded. A later normal Pause/Resume completed in one finish with
explicit response_wake and no new review/comment. The admitted normal
Retry then exposed the execution guard gap repaired here. Those remain
checkpoint results. On the final combined source, renewed normal Retry
completed actual native provider work and GitHub publication, committed
the passive wait, released ownership and cleaned up its environment. A
subsequent ordinary unmentioned author reply woke once, made no GitHub
tool calls or new assessment, and completed its first finish with an
explicit response wake. Both exact leases expired with successful
cleanup and the queue was empty. However, final destination inspection
found a separate automatic fallback overwrote the existing summary with
a generic no-final-response message. External summary preservation
therefore remains failed acceptance; the separate publication repair in
#17726 owns that producer. Full combined publication preservation has
not passed. These hosted runs include the pinned-base native additions;
they do not qualify Copilot v63.
- Current-head automated review is 5/5 with zero unresolved threads. All
current-head CI gates passed (54 successful checks/contexts, four
skipped, none pending). The earlier login-cleanup idle-work assertion
also reproduced locally while its controlled baseline passed; its cause
remains unknown, but the exact assertion passed in the fresh
current-head CI shard. No timeout, assertion or production workaround
was added. This PR is ready for review within its source, authority,
native finalization, state, wake and cleanup scope. The independent
automatic fallback publication regression is tracked by #17726; no
complete combined workflow pass is claimed.

## Risks

- The latest saved review defines the durable head boundary. Ingress
must record a new head before admission. A reply receipt proves delivery
only for its exact saved source; a shared GitHub comment ID alone cannot
authorize this wait.
- Historical App recovery cannot infer identity without direct proof or
an earlier valid server response receipt. It never replays that
response.
- This does not infer review-score policy from instructions or override
Done. No deployment, merge or repair of historical tasks is claimed by
the PR.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol`, with reasoning, repository inspection, code
editing and test execution. The context-window size is not exposed in
this session.

DottaandPaperclip 27a87c0f22 perf(runner): keep routine journal flushes off the server thread (#17813)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native runners persist incoming events in the server process.
> - Routine progress and usage events can cause many full journal
writes.
> - Synchronous file flushes stop that process from serving unrelated
requests.
> - Output deltas already use asynchronous writes, but other frequent
events still block.
> - This pull request stages routine events privately and publishes them
after persistence.
> - Critical lifecycle events keep their existing ordering.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #17745, #17514.

**What happened?**

Page navigation, task saves, and archive requests stalled during native
runner output. A post-fix CPU profile still spent about 7 seconds of a
19-second window in synchronous event journal flushes. Progress and
usage events caused much of this traffic.

**Expected behavior**

Routine event file writes must let unrelated HTTP requests run. The
durable cursor must advance only after persistence. Completion and
semantic tool admission must retain their ordering.

**Steps to reproduce**

Run a native task that emits frequent tool progress and usage events.
Send HTTP requests while its volume flushes are slow. The controlled
tests hold a real file flush and send a real HTTP request during that
hold.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced after #17745 on master.

## What Changed

- Stage priority 1 and 2 event snapshots with asynchronous file writes
and flushes.
- Keep candidate events out of the public in-memory journal until the
durable commit finishes.
- Include a pending event in a command's existing durable write. Command
bursts do not cause repeated event writes or business callbacks.
- Reject stale candidates after an authenticated connection replaces
their owner.
- Keep priority 0 events, all run and turn lifecycle events, and
semantic tool input persistence synchronous, including terminals labeled
priority 1.
- Extend slow-volume tests for progress, usage, critical events,
concurrent commands, reconnects, write failures, drain, and replay.
- Update the durable event delivery documentation.

## Verification

- Controlled regression: the previous implementation failed the new
progress and usage slow-flush cases and exposed pending delta state. The
updated implementation passes all sixteen controlled cases.
- All 137 durable control-plane tests and three saved-continuation cases
pass. The continuation cases use the actual Rust bridge.
- Review regressions failed before the correction: a priority-1 terminal
took the asynchronous path and command writes did not absorb the pending
event. The correction passes these tests, a two-command burst with one
staged write, and a directory-flush failure after command/event rename.
- An authority-boundary regression also failed before its correction.
Explicit snapshot transactions now retire pending coalescing, so a later
command cannot publish an older event; the test verifies replay after
restart.
- An initial version made lifecycle events asynchronous too. The
saved-continuation tests caught missing final run receipts at
completion. Keeping priority 0 events synchronous fixes those failures.
This version does not claim asynchronous lifecycle support.
- Repository typecheck and build pass locally after the review fixes. At
the previous head `886f2b961f035071bd947b5116b1f7a2727ec17f`, run
`40404783081` passed the full CI suite, including 4,024 package runner
tests and 96 native-runtime tests. Final-head CI run `40409537748`,
attempt 2, passed. All 46 substantive jobs and both aggregate gates
succeeded. Runner lanes passed 4,032 package tests and 96 native-runtime
tests. The retry carried forward the successful substantive jobs from
attempt 1 and completed both aggregate gates.
- Greptile reviewed final head
`735245931450810246e3008231a29fd56d615f67` at 5/5 with no actionable
findings. The separate Paperclip review execution ended neutrally
without a new assessment. Its earlier command-churn finding is fixed and
its outdated thread is resolved; the documentation and priority-1
coverage comments are also addressed.
- The local wider runner suite passed 449 of 450 tests. The
retained-terminal replay case fails on both this candidate and unchanged
master at the same maintenance-proof check. Both local runs leave an old
terminal receipt pending behind the event backlog. These failed runs
remain recorded; they are not counted as passes.
- The broad local test command also failed one unchanged
workspace-runtime port-allocation case. That case passed in isolation.
Its cause is unresolved. The broad local run was stopped after the
complete CI test groups passed; no full local-suite pass is claimed.
- Live staging acceptance remains pending.
- The tests hold a real `FileHandle.sync`, verify an actual HTTP
response during the hold, and check disk and memory cursors. They also
verify command preservation and idempotent replay.

## Risks

- Asynchronous writes add time for concurrent commands or reconnects to
arrive. Commands absorb the event in their existing write. Revision
checks prevent stale publication. Other authority changes leave the
unacknowledged event for replay instead of retrying full snapshot
writes.
- ACKs still wait for the file flush, atomic rename, and directory
flush. Write errors still fence further writes until reload.
- Critical commits, JSON serialization, rename, and directory flushes
still run synchronously. A command's coalesced event uses that command's
existing synchronous commit. This change does not eliminate every
possible source of latency.
- No schema, API, dependency, or wire contract changes are required.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 9ae4c25e7e perf(runner): reuse compatible protected provider packs (#17749)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native Runner starts provider runtimes in remote execution
environments.
> - Sandbox images already contain qualified provider packs.
> - Startup required the image pack to match the entire current app
release manifest.
> - An unrelated app commit could therefore cause pack verification,
transfer, and installation again.
> - This pull request selects protected packs by their provider
interface and platform.
> - The benefit is no extra pack probe, directory scan, version command,
link, or upload on the compatible image path.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Starting a remote task can reject a compatible image pack because its
source revision or unrelated provider differs from the controller. Pack
replacement added about 16 seconds in the investigated startup. Startup
also repeated full content checks.

**Expected behavior**

Use an already qualified, protected pack when its selected provider
interface and target platform are compatible. Keep the selected artifact
identity for process launch and recovery.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Install a qualified provider pack in a sandbox image.
2. Start a controller built from another app commit.
3. Start a remote OpenCode task. The old complete-manifest comparison
rejects the image pack even when the provider interface still works.

Related repairs: #16493 reduced transfer cost. #17512 retained exact
artifact authority during reattachment. This change preserves that
recovery rule and changes fresh-launch pack selection.

## What Changed

- Add explicit OpenCode and ACPX interface revisions to produced pack
manifests. App Git SHAs and dependency pins remain provenance.
- Read bounded protected-installation metadata in the existing final
runner metadata query. Accept only root-owned paths that the execution
user cannot write, including ancestors and manifest. Reject writable
aliases.
- Select and prepare the pack in server-owned environment setup before
constructing the existing transport. Bind provider launch paths and
digests from the selected installation. Save that identity for exact
reattachment.
- Keep full content verification for uploads, writable installations,
and legacy packs. Reuse successful verification within one startup. Keep
older attached runners compatible with the optional metadata request.
- Seal image packs and document the one-time image refresh that enables
reuse across later compatible releases. Keep selected ACPX agent
qualification checks.

## Verification

- Red/green regression: the old code rejects a protected pack from
another app revision with `manifest mismatch`; the fixed path selects it
without executing verification commands.
- Native startup regression: select the installed pack's own Node digest
with one existing runner metadata request and no pack verification or
version commands.
- Targeted pack, artifact, recovery, execution-driver, and Rust metadata
tests pass. Incompatible interfaces/platforms, malformed identities,
writable roots, path aliases, and exact reattachment are covered.
- Final revision `91dc1676ff67bdbe5866c8586daac10240530cca`: workspace
typecheck and build pass. All 53 current-head checks are successful,
with no pending or failed checks. Greptile is 5/5 with no open findings.
- The broad local `pnpm test:run` attempt reported a workspace-runtime
conflict test failure; its isolated rerun passed. The broad run was
stopped after that failure. Full CI now passes, including the server
test shards. This is not a claim that the full local run passed.
- Linux filesystem evidence: the production metadata functions read a
real root-owned preinstalled pack as a non-root user in 16 microseconds
median and 20 microseconds p95 across 100 warm reads. This measures
metadata admission, not model or hosted response latency.
- All 910 affected server tests and 57 Copilot attestation tests pass
locally on the final implementation. Full CI covers the unchanged Runner
transport. No provider qualification hash was refreshed.
- Built the actual Linux daemon at
`416e7ec7425d0d3565b4a5e1808002d650a60414` and ran its metadata command
as UID 65534. The protected installation returned its real manifest with
`immutable: true`; writable alias and missing-pack cases returned
`immutable: false`. This is metadata/permission evidence, not provider
execution.
- Hosted rollout and a hosted end-to-end latency measurement have not
run.

## Risks

- Existing images need one rebuild to publish the compatibility
declaration. Packs without it keep the legacy content-verification path.
- Fast admission relies on image publication producing a qualified
protected tree. Root execution and task-writable installations retain
full verification.
- Bump an interface revision when required runner/pack behavior changes
incompatibly. Deploy a new image to roll out compatible runtime fixes or
upgrades.
- This removes provider-pack preparation delay. Other runner startup,
context, model, and finalization costs remain separate.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, configured model `gpt-6.1-sol`, reasoning effort `xhigh`,
with tool use and code execution. The context-window size is not exposed
in this session.

DottaandPaperclip f1922d95e1 test(runner): qualify the OpenCode discovery fixture on Linux (#17757)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Runner tests must exercise the same verified launch boundary as real
providers.
> - The assigned-tool test from #17740 used an executable JavaScript
script as its OpenCode fixture.
> - Linux launches verified executable bytes from a sealed, unlinked
memory file.
> - Node cannot reopen that deleted script path. Cleanup then hid the
startup error.
> - This pull request uses the native fixture wrapper already used by
the adjacent OpenCode integration test.

Refs #17740. Related fixture qualification work: #14529.

**What happened?**

The merged-source Cloud readiness job failed twice in the new
assigned-tool integration test. Linux could not start the script fixture
from the verified executable file. The later cleanup error hid the
original `ENOENT` error for `/memfd:paperclip-verified-launch
(deleted)`.

**Expected behavior**

The test must pass through the real Rust Runner, OpenCode proxy, and
HTTP MCP bridge on Linux. It must also report the original error if
cleanup fails.

**Steps to reproduce**

Run `vitest run src/live/runnerd-opencode-assigned-tools.test.ts` in the
Runner package with its Linux binary and built proxy. The original
fixture fails during startup. The native wrapper passes the
assigned-tool assertions and durable close.

## What Changed

- Launch the existing JavaScript server fixture through a native
wrapper.
- Qualify an owned Node copy on Linux with strict file permissions.
- Bundle the current production proxy into the test's temporary
directory. The test no longer skips when shared `dist` output is absent.
- Preserve both the original error and a cleanup error.
- Remove the temporary fixture even when setup fails.

## Verification

- Reproduced the failure in a local Linux container with the exact
merged Runner binary from the published Core image.
- The same Linux test passes after this change. It checks the assigned
discovery call, the completion call, and successful durable close.
- The updated test passes on macOS.
- A real Linux compiler-failure probe leaves zero fixture directories
behind.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`: passed.
- Runner TypeScript checks pass after the cleanup review change.
- Full technical CI passed on
`6ee1865af3310f13523b11407f9e41879832f543`.
- Fresh Greptile review: 5/5, with no unresolved findings.
- Fresh Paperclip Review published 5/5 on
`6ee1865af3310f13523b11407f9e41879832f543`, with no actionable findings.
- The optional Entire assessment remains pending because this branch has
no assessed Entire Change. The maintainer approved merging after CI and
both reviews pass.
- The full local test suite was not repeated. Earlier attempts hit host
PostgreSQL semaphore limits. CI provides the full suite check.

## Risks

Low risk. This changes one test fixture. Runtime behavior and launch
verification stay the same. The test now needs the C compiler already
required by the adjacent native fixture tests.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, tool use, and code
execution. The runtime does not expose the exact backend model ID or
context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip 313c1db2c3 fix(evals): share bounded request policy with qualification (#17765)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and their work.
> - Product E2E evaluations send model work through a gateway with cost
limits.
> - The gateway checks the request body before it reserves money or
contacts a provider.
> - A qualification probe needs that same check before it records a
spending-cap denial.
> - Namespace support already exists. Qualification must share that
policy without sending a paid request.
> - This pull request exposes the pure request validator and bounds the
supported local tool definitions.
> - The benefit is one request policy for qualification and forwarding.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #17452, #17469.

**What happened?**

The request validator was private to `forwardEvalRequest`. A
qualification caller could not reuse the request policy before
admission. A separate check could accept a request body that forwarding
rejects before a reservation.

**Expected behavior**

Qualification and forwarding use the same pure validator. One-level
OpenAI namespaces with local function or custom tools remain supported.
Invalid tool definitions fail before accounting or transport work.

**Steps to reproduce**

Use the synthetic native-daemon request fixture in
`eval-gateway.test.ts`. It has seven local function tools and one
namespace with five local function tools. Call the shared validator,
then forward through the fake provider. Run the malformed namespace and
tool-count cases to check rejection before side effects.

The namespace behavior follows the [OpenAI function-calling
guide](https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/guides/function-calling).
This change preserves the one-level contract introduced in #17452 and
hardened in #17469.

## What Changed

- Export `boundedEvalPayload` with credential-free route fields.
`forwardEvalRequest` calls that function.
- Keep one namespace level with function or custom leaves. Require exact
leaf types, nonblank string leaf names, and a closed namespace wrapper.
- Limit OpenAI tool definitions to 1,024 per request. Count namespace
wrappers and their children.
- Add native-daemon-shaped forwarding coverage, malformed and hosted
tool rejection, count and depth boundaries, and Anthropic compatibility
checks.
- Document the shared qualification policy in the Product E2E security
guide.
- Compile the real observability validator in the test parent. The owned
CLI fixture imports JavaScript, so its process group does not include a
test-only TypeScript compiler service. The parent resolves the compiler
from the root package, which declares that dependency. Production
cleanup checks and attempt deadlines stay intact.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run --config tests/runner-e2e/vitest.config.ts
eval-gateway.test.ts cost-ledger.test.ts provider-usage.test.ts
operating-overhead.test.ts operations.test.ts`: 173 passed.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck`: passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed.
- `pnpm build`: passed.
- Separate Node support checks: 137 passed.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:unit`: 4,271 passed, two skipped, four failed in
unchanged Daytona image and Pi catalog contracts. The same four failures
reproduce on untouched base commit
`a67a18c171816b097f46eae78fc58c7e55c9c565` (79 passed, four failed in
those files).
- `pnpm test:run`: interrupted and incomplete after required CI
completed. Initial database startup failed because this checkout omitted
the embedded PostgreSQL package postinstall aliases. The package
hydrator restored them, and 14 real database checks passed. Earlier
failures and the full output remain preserved; this local full run is
not counted as passing verification. Its owned process group exited
after SIGINT, with no owned survivors.
- An offline full native authentication probe used the real Rust daemon
and pinned Codex 0.160.0 Darwin SDK. The same captured request failed
the older operations policy before reservation and reached a mock
reservation with this policy. The OS sandbox allowed loopback only. It
used synthetic credentials, retained no raw model payload, and made no
provider calls.
- Controller fixture suite: 70 passed. Three cold comparisons each
confirmed that the old child started an owned compiler service and the
corrected child did not. On Darwin the old compiler also exited cleanly,
so this does not prove the exact historical Linux process race. Fresh
Linux CI is required.
- Independent review passed. The private qualification integration
passed 14 exact-source compatibility checks and 67 shared-source tests
without provider calls.

- Required GitHub CI checks passed on the current head. The separate
Entire approval gate still awaits an eligible reviewer; the delegated
author account's explicitly AI-assisted approval does not satisfy it.

## Risks

Requests with more than 1,024 OpenAI tool definitions or extra namespace
wrapper fields now fail closed. New provider schema fields will need
review. Anthropic tool handling, model prices, billing restrictions,
output caps, and reservation ordering remain unchanged. This offline
request-policy proof does not establish a completed model turn or Linux
or Cloud onboarding acceptance.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family. The exact serving model identifier and
context window are not exposed in this session. The model used
reasoning, tools, and code execution.

DottaandPaperclip 125ddcabe5 perf(runner): keep event journal writes off the HTTP thread (#17745)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets people manage AI agents and their work.
> - The HTTP server also owns durable Runner state.
> - Each committed event rewrites and flushes that state on the HTTP
thread.
> - Large journals and slow writes delay unrelated navigation and saves.
> - Event acknowledgements must still wait for durable storage.
> - This PR stages output writes asynchronously and joins them before
writer replacement.
> - The board can serve requests while Runner output waits for storage.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #17507. Related: #17514 reduces writes per event burst. This PR
moves individual output writes and file flushes outside the HTTP thread.

**What happened?**
A live CPU profile spent about three seconds of a 13-second sample
serializing and synchronously writing Runner state. Representative
journals were about 9 MB. Unrelated task requests had multi-second
delays.

**Expected behavior**
A slow output-journal write must leave unrelated HTTP requests
responsive. An event must not be acknowledged before it is durable.

**Steps to reproduce**
Hold an authenticated output event's file flush in the durable protocol
test. Send an unrelated HTTP request during that flush. Also save a
command, reconnect, or retire the controller during the write.

## What Changed

- Stage `item.delta` snapshots with asynchronous file writes and file
flushes. Keep lifecycle, control, authentication, and tool events
synchronous so transport readers observe durable boundaries.
- Fence publication by saved revision. An older snapshot cannot replace
newer commands or connection state. A failed write fences the writer.
- Write compact JSON and share private-file checks. Existing journals
remain readable.
- Stop external ingress before joining admitted writes. Checkpoint only
after retirement succeeds. Close reports a failed detach consistently
and releases notification consumers.
- Add real HTTP and Rust transport cases for held writes, reconnects,
commands, failure, restart, close, and timeout.
- Add immutable Copilot source identity v61 for the changed shared
transport. Preserve v60, historical decoding, exact-current launch
checks, and qualification flags. No new live Copilot qualification is
claimed.

## Verification

- Head `6f5c92e778`: workspace `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`
passed. All CI gates passed in [run
40356159484](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40356159484),
including both full Runner shards. Fresh Greptile review is 5/5; all
findings are resolved.
- Current-base focused verification passed 300 cases across protocol,
real Rust restart/continuation, permission, backend, and
immutable-profile suites. The complete transport suite also passed 286
cases before the base refresh.
- Earlier iterations exposed lifecycle visibility, late writer
publication, and close-order failures. Controlled regressions reproduced
each before repair. CI also found missing test-peer drain methods and a
stale source fingerprint; both are corrected. An older broad local test
run was stopped after its source was superseded. No full local-suite
pass is claimed; full coverage passed in isolated CI.
- A synthetic 9 MB journal comparison used 20 writes per sample and
concurrent HTTP probes, with alternating baseline/treatment order. HTTP
median changed from 31 ms to 2–3 ms; p95 changed from 51–85 ms to 12–21
ms. Parsed output was equal. The asynchronous loop served 125–153 probes
versus 19–20, and took longer overall (992–1069 ms versus 675–678 ms).
This proves local I/O responsiveness, not deployed application latency.
- Deployment and live save/archive acceptance remain pending.

## Risks

Persistence interleavings affect restart authority. The tests cover
concurrent commands, replacement, failed storage, and reopening the
journal. JSON serialization, atomic rename, directory flush, and
control-event writes remain synchronous. This change still rewrites
whole journals. Incomplete retirement retains recovery evidence and
fails the close. A new exact-current Copilot source identity can reject
an older launch identity; historical decoding remains available. No
migration is required.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 (Codex), with reasoning, tool use, SSH and browser
diagnostics, code editing, and test execution. The exact serving model
suffix and context-window size are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 063a498b54 Bound native OpenCode assigned-tool catalog projection (#17740)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native agents use assigned connection tools through a governed
gateway.
> - OpenCode received the gateway catalog directly, outside the bounded
server tool projection.
> - A large catalog can exceed a provider grammar compiler's capacity
even when it fits the transport limits.
> - Synthetic requests reproduced the Fireworks grammar timeout on the
configured DeepSeek model.
> - This pull request gives OpenCode two assigned-tool discovery and
call schemas through the existing server relay.
> - The gateway keeps the same grants, validation, approvals,
revocation, and audit rules.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A native OpenCode run could fail during provider grammar compilation
before its first assigned-tool call. OpenCode advertised the full
assigned gateway catalog. A synthetic catalog of 741 tool schemas
reproduced `Grammar processing took too much time` on Fireworks through
OpenRouter with `deepseek/deepseek-v4.1-flash-1017`. The same model and
backend accepted a compact two-tool discovery/call catalog. This
reproduces the mechanism; it does not replay a historical private
request.

**Expected behavior**

Assigned-tool discovery must keep provider grammar size bounded. Every
call must retain the run's original gateway binding and permissions.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Give a native OpenCode run a large assigned connection catalog.
2. Use a provider that compiles tool schemas into a constrained output
grammar.
3. Observe the full catalog in the provider tool surface before this
change.
4. After this change, observe only `paperclip_search_assigned_tools` and
`paperclip_call_assigned_tool` for assigned tools. Discover and call a
permitted tool through its pinned alias.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Source checkout based on current `master`.

**Deployment mode**

Native local or sandbox execution with OpenCode 1.18.34.

Related work: Refs #14258 (discovery paging), #16678 (local adapter MCP
launch), and #17688 (gateway capability advertisement). This change
covers native OpenCode catalog projection.

## What Changed

- Route native OpenCode assigned tools through the existing server-owned
authenticated relay.
- Use bounded discovery/call schemas for OpenCode, including small
catalogs. Preserve transport capacity checks.
- Keep assigned gateway credentials on the controller. Ignore gateway
and credential values in tool arguments.
- Preserve exact declared MCP operation names through admission and
driver dispatch. Resolve transport prefixes only against the closed
catalog. Reject unknown or shortened names.
- Refresh former OpenCode direct-catalog and shortened-name checkpoints.
Keep the existing fingerprints for other providers.
- Add local and remote wiring, catalog capacity, alias, scope,
work-mode, approval, and revocation tests.
- Allow the native test files to use a validated dedicated external test
database when embedded PostgreSQL is unavailable.
- Document the assigned-tool execution contract.

- Bound OpenCode discovery pages to 32 KiB and large-schema chunks to
16K characters. Keep other harness budgets unchanged.
- Test medium pages and escaped large schemas through the actual HTTP
MCP bridge on the explicit Runner testing surface.

## Verification

- Red before the catalog fix: OpenCode did not create the server relay,
and forced compact delivery advertised 1 or 741 direct schemas.
- Red before the alias repair: HTTP MCP changed declared operation
names, and the driver sent `search_assigned_tools` instead of the
authorized `paperclip_search_assigned_tools`.
- Current repair tests: 112 OpenCode/proxy tests pass, plus one actual
Rust/proxy/HTTP MCP regression. Two checkpoint regressions fail with the
former scoped revision and pass with the new revision. Other providers
keep their prior fingerprints.
- The combined QA candidate with this exact PR head passes all 916
native tests and all 113 transport tests on supported Node 24.22. An
earlier Node 26.4/macOS run passed the 113 assertions but had an
uncaught networking error. That non-clean run remains recorded; its
stack matches [the upstream Undici
defect](https://github.com/nodejs/undici/issues/5544). No production
workaround or error suppression was added.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and `git diff --check` pass on
`bc41ba72be2195eabeb0d7727227ee0cd02e8532`. The maps structural check
passes.
- The local `pnpm test:run` attempt stopped after host embedded
PostgreSQL initialization failures. The relevant database suites pass
with isolated PostgreSQL 18. All repository CI gates, including
aggregate `ci / verify`, pass on the current head.
- Synthetic live provider comparison: 741 invented schemas produced the
exact Fireworks grammar timeout in 20.9 seconds. Two compact invented
schemas produced a discovery call in 585 ms on the same model and
backend.
- The first hosted QA attempt exposed the alias failure described above.
On the patched source, a real local Rust runner → proxy → OpenCode
1.18.34 → exact DeepSeek smoke completed discovery, one synthetic
gateway read, and `paperclip_finish`, then emitted `turn/completed`. It
used the production compact projection and unchanged Rust allowlist.
- Two earlier local smoke attempts exposed missing terminal authority
and completion-contract fields in the smoke harness. Those failures
remain recorded. The corrected ordinary bindings produced the clean
result.
- Fresh Greptile: 5/5 on `bc41ba72be2195eabeb0d7727227ee0cd02e8532`,
with no new actionable findings or unresolved threads.
- Hosted QA publication and lifecycle acceptance remain pending. The
separate deployed-agent `Paperclip Review` check is also pending; it
follows a task that failed on the earlier deployed runtime.

- Local OpenCode/OpenRouter acceptance at `bc41ba72`: 530 synthetic
tools were authorized and installed. A simple model-ID reply completed
in 17.3 seconds with no app calls. A discovery task completed in 37.6
seconds, used the search/call relay, made one upstream call, and
returned the exact synthetic value. This is local source acceptance, not
a staging sandbox timing comparison.
- The large-result review finding has a failing-before/passing-after
HTTP MCP regression. Five medium schemas now page without invalid JSON.
A large schema with escaped text reconstructs exactly through bounded
chunks. All 35 assigned-tool tests and the server typecheck pass after
this follow-up.
- Final head `d84ce4856a6e65a35ad5fb8b561492598b525f4e`: all CI gates
pass. Greptile and Paperclip Review both rate the change 5/5. No review
threads remain open. The final full build, server typecheck, and 35
assigned-tool tests pass locally.

## Risks

- OpenCode uses discovery before it calls an assigned tool, including
for small catalogs. This can add a model turn.
- An existing OpenCode provider checkpoint rotates once because it
retains the former tool declarations. Paperclip task history remains
available.
- The historical filtered catalog was not captured. The synthetic
comparison proves the failure mechanism, not the exact cardinality of an
earlier private request.
- No model, provider route, permission, or automatic retry policy
changes.

## Model Used

The bounded-result follow-up also used OpenAI Codex (GPT-6 family). The
exact backend model ID and context-window size were not exposed for that
session. It used reasoning, code execution, and tool use.

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` in Codex, with reasoning, tool use, code execution,
and source inspection. The runtime does not expose the context-window
size.

DottaandPaperclip 5823e9a664 fix(runner): preserve disabled Codex web search (#17744)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native Codex agents use the saved agent settings to prepare each
provider launch.
> - Onboarding saves web search as off, but native configuration
conversion removes that setting.
> - Codex 0.160.0 includes a hosted web-search tool by default, even in
an authentication probe that asks it not to use tools.
> - A gateway that permits only priced function tools can reject that
request before budget admission.
> - This change preserves the explicit restriction through native
execution and disables web search for authentication probes.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A native Codex authentication probe can include hosted web search.
Normal task execution also loses a saved `search: false` setting. A
restricted Responses gateway can reject these requests before it makes a
model call. Related repairs: Refs #17445, Refs #17529. The roadmap and
related PRs were checked; no duplicate repair was found.

**Expected behavior**

Authentication probes check the selected account and model without
hosted web search. A saved search-off setting remains effective in
native task launches, prepared launches, and session recovery. Existing
behavior for an absent setting remains unchanged.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create a Codex agent with search off and choose Paperclip Runner.
2. Use a Responses gateway that rejects hosted tools.
3. Inspect the request from the native authentication probe or task
launch. Before this fix, the pinned Codex SDK includes `web_search`
despite the saved setting.

## What Changed

- Preserve an explicit search-off setting when native agent
configuration is built and converted.
- Carry the restriction in the durable native input and provider launch
requirements.
- Apply the restriction to authentication probes and normal launch
paths, including custom arguments and recovery.
- Reject prepared launches that discard the required restriction. Keep
gateway billing rules unchanged.
- Admit only the restrictive literal value in the strict plugin task
API. Exercise the real plugin setup path.
- Add regression coverage and document the policy.
- Add the immutable Copilot v60 source identity required by the changed
shared files. Preserve v59 and all original live evidence. Copilot
authentication probes keep their prior launch requirements.

## Verification

- Regression cases were run against the unfixed source and failed at the
configuration and launch boundaries.
- An isolated capture using the real Codex 0.160.0 app-server reproduced
hosted-tool rejection. Disabling web search reached a mocked budget
reservation. The helper and child processes permitted only loopback
network access and used synthetic credentials. It made zero upstream
calls.
- Focused checks passed: 284 server cases, 61 native form cases, 198
backend/security/launch/parser cases, and 36 authentication/launch
cases. A separate complete transport/launch/parser run passed 393 cases.
These groups overlap.
- Head `617b98f` passed workspace typecheck/build and 28/28 plugin
contract and actual Runner probe tests with no skips. Final rebased head
`20ff0c1` passed all current-head CI checks, including full isolated
test lanes, and fresh Greptile and Paperclip reviews at 5/5.
- The additive Copilot identity update passed 134
compatibility/policy/protocol checks and nine authentication probe
checks. The real pinned Codex SDK capture was repeated after the final
policy change: all five cases passed with zero upstream calls.
- Two local full-suite attempts stopped after native PostgreSQL loader
failures. Seven local dependency aliases were restored, and an isolated
cluster initialized successfully. A third run later encountered host
PostgreSQL semaphore exhaustion and was interrupted before
source-profile regeneration. Its zero exit code after SIGINT is
explicitly not a full-suite pass. Final full-suite verification runs in
isolated CI; the local attempts remain recorded.
- The first CI run exposed a missing strict plugin API field. Its five
failures were reproduced locally, then passed after repair. The next run
passed every underlying job except the source-identity guard. That guard
now binds an additive identity with v59 retained. Final-head CI and both
fresh reviews passed; addressed review threads are resolved.
- The offline capture runs on Darwin ARM64. It does not prove the
contents of a prior unretained Linux request or complete Cloud
onboarding acceptance.

## Risks

- The restriction must survive prepared launches and resumed sessions.
Regression tests cover those boundaries.
- Existing absent settings retain their prior behavior. This change does
not add native search-on support or loosen gateway admission.
- Older durable inputs without the optional restriction must remain
valid.
- Copilot now uses profile v60 for exact launch admission. Historical
v59 inputs remain readable. The new declaration adds no live Copilot
qualification and does not change its executable or admission flags.
- A deployed Cloud acceptance run is still required after this source
repair.

DottaandPaperclip ad861a7f94 fix(runner): allow bounded controller admission before welcome (#17735)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and preserves their work across
execution failures.
> - Native Runner authentication exchanges a one-use bootstrap ticket
for a connection lease.
> - The controller must admit the connection and persist that lease
before it sends welcome.
> - Runnerd waited only two seconds for welcome, even when its
connection setup budget allowed more time.
> - A slow valid welcome therefore looked like a consumed-ticket failure
before provider work could start.
> - This pull request uses the existing ten-second connection setup
budget for welcome.
> - The benefit is reliable startup during bounded controller delays,
with the same authentication and replay checks.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A valid native Runner bootstrap can fail while the controller completes
admission. The runner then reports `bootstrap connection failed closed;
provide a fresh one-use ticket`. A later recovery attempt can report an
indeterminate authority and hide the startup error behind a finalization
deadline.

**Expected behavior**

A valid welcome can arrive within the connection setup budget. An
earlier execution or reconnect deadline still ends the wait. A missing
or invalid welcome never permits bootstrap-ticket replay.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run the real Runner WebSocket transport against an authenticated
controller.
2. Hold the welcome for three seconds after the client proof arrives.
3. Before this change, authentication fails with `WebSocket
authentication message deadline elapsed` and `bootstrap_maybe_consumed:
true`.
4. With this change, the runner accepts the bound lease and restores the
normal read timeout.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced against `a1f77821b9` before the production change.

**Agent adapter(s) involved**

Native Paperclip Runner. The transport is shared by its provider
drivers.

Related: #17401 reduces repeated work in warm-recovery admission. This
change covers delayed welcome delivery for fresh authentication too. It
does not replace that optimization. #17594 addresses a separate lifetime
failure after controller outages.

## What Changed

- Use the ten-second connection setup budget for the authenticated
welcome.
- Keep the execution/reconnect deadline as an earlier bound.
- Add real WebSocket regressions for a delayed welcome and a shorter
lifecycle deadline.
- Add a real Runner process test proving a delayed admission starts one
provider and keeps it through two turns.
- Document the startup contract and its recovery verification scope.

## Verification

- Red: the delayed-welcome regression failed against unchanged
production code with a message deadline and `bootstrap_maybe_consumed:
true`.
- Green: all 402 Runner core library tests pass. The suite includes
authentication, ticket fencing after a lost welcome, identity rejection,
replay, and no repeated provider effects.
- Map and module checks pass.
- Workspace `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass. The new process
integration test passes (one provider process, one thread, two turns,
suspended with an empty outbox).
- Live acceptance at this branch's production Runner build passes on
macOS arm64 with pinned OpenCode 1.18.34 and
`openrouter/deepseek/deepseek-v4.1-flash-1017`: delay admission by three
seconds, create a file, suspend, resume the same provider session under
a fresh run authority, read the first file, and write a second file.
Both useful outputs match exactly; final runner state is suspended.
- Preserved setup failures: a non-pinned executable was rejected, and
the debug binary exceeded cold provider startup admission. The pinned
executable and release binary passed. The first harness also tried to
reuse a completed task object; the follow-up used the normal resume
path. Exactly two paid model turns ran.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` was attempted and stopped after the Mac
exhausted PostgreSQL semaphore capacity (`could not create semaphores`);
it is not a local full-suite pass.
- Current-head CI is green at
`df5d5494c9f9f444114aaf12e095a554110d2e14`: all checks passing or
non-applicably skipped, zero failures or pending checks. The additional
Superagent security scan triggered by ready-for-review also passed.
These include all general/serialized test shards, Runner Rust/Vitest,
E2E, typecheck, build, and the final verify gate. Greptile reviewed that
exact commit at 5/5 with no findings or inline comments.
- This proves the actual native Runner/provider path locally. It does
not prove rollout or recovery on a hosted Linux/amd64 execution
environment.

## Risks

- A stalled welcome can take up to eight seconds longer to fail when the
configured lifecycle allows it. Shorter execution/reconnect deadlines
still take precedence.
- Authentication proofs, credential expiry, identity binding, and
one-use-ticket fencing remain enforced.
- This does not repair provider-side grammar errors or authorize replay
of an indeterminate historical run. Recovery of existing work requires
the normal stopped-owner and retained-state checks.
- No schema or migration change. A new Runner binary must reach the
execution host before this change affects remote runs.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 3f91d58dd5 fix(ci): provide Copilot auth only to protected paid eval cells (#17743)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Paid runner evals test real provider integrations.
> - Copilot cells use the saved-token connection path.
> - The two trusted workflows did not pass the Copilot credential to
those cells.
> - This PR supplies it only when the selected cell needs it.
> - Existing environment and actor gates protect access in this public
repository.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #15705 and #15706. A search found no open PR that adds this
workflow credential binding.

**Describe the bug**

Copilot Product and direct-protocol eval cells require
`COPILOT_GITHUB_TOKEN`. The protected paid workflows do not currently
pass that environment secret to the selected execution step.

**Expected behavior**

Only a selected Copilot cell receives this credential. Ordinary PR,
build, catalog, image and reporting jobs receive none.

**Steps to reproduce**

Dispatch the trusted full-stack workflow for one Copilot cell.
Credential validation fails before the task starts, although the
protected environment can hold a valid token.

**Environment**

GitHub Actions in the public `paperclipai/paperclip` repository, with
the reviewed workflow on `master` and the `runner-e2e-paid` environment.

## What Changed

- Pass `COPILOT_GITHUB_TOKEN` in the paid Product and direct-protocol
execution steps, only when `matrix.credentialName` selects it.
- Add the missing Copilot protocol-catalog credential mapping and verify
it reaches the selected execution matrix.
- Add security checks for the selected-cell binding and bounded
protected-job scope. Extend the scan that rejects provider credentials
in unrelated workflows.
- Document the Copilot credential scope. No secret values, account data
or private test evidence are in this PR.

## Verification

- Product workflow security: 16 tests passed on this head.
- Protocol catalog and workflow security: 21 tests passed, including the
Copilot matrix regression reproduced red before its fix.
- Current-head required `ci / verify` and `ci / e2e` are green. Greptile
is 5/5 with zero unresolved review threads.
- The first CI attempt retained runner-shutdown failures; one failed-job
retry passed on the unchanged head. Both attempts remain in [the CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40342429106).
- `git diff --check` passed.
- A selected-credential scan found zero matching secret values in the
seven changed files.
- The environment setting was separately checked: `master` only,
required approval from existing allowlisted code owners, and
administrator bypass disabled. The new secret exists only at environment
scope; no repository-wide duplicate was created.
- The packaged Copilot runtime verified the selected token and the
explicit model without a model prompt. A fresh local UI journey then
created an agent, completed its first task and verified the downloaded
artifact and cleanup.

## Risks

The selected paid cells gain access to one additional environment
credential. Missing credentials still fail closed. Default-branch
checks, initiating/rerunning actor checks, protected environment access
and per-cell credential selection remain in place. This PR adds no
trigger and gives no credential to builds or ordinary PR checks.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with repository tools and browser
regression tests. The exact runtime model identifier is not exposed in
this session.

DottaandPaperclip 41c42895fa feat(evals): enforce fixed Runner request allocations (#17452)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Runner evals execute real provider harnesses against maintained
fixtures.
> - Turn-level usage arrives after requests have already spent money.
> - Parallel cells need distinct allowances before requests start.
> - Missing output must preserve the remaining allowance and any known
charges.
> - This pull request adds a controller that reuses the existing request
ledger and gateway.
> - It makes a bounded local Runner attempt reviewable before hosted
scheduling is enabled.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17440. That PR added the explicit Runner gateway route. This PR
owns request admission and retained campaign accounting for that route.

The existing hosted matrix is not enabled or changed here. Its global
allocation, rerun rejection, and private evidence archive remain
separate integration work.

## What Changed

- Validate a trusted manifest with exact request, CLI, package, daemon,
model, and source identities. Assign each selected cell a distinct
allowance. Count operating overhead once. Reject allocations above the
campaign limit before launch.
- Run native Codex or ACPX Claude through the shared request proxy and
append-only ledger. Pass only the proxy credential to the child. Refuse
local attempt reuse and preserve existing output files.
- Close gateway admission on cancellation. Retain the ledger, receipts,
route descriptor, child result, and cleanup evidence outside the
disposable workspace.
- Recompute campaign accounting from retained ledgers. Missing or
invalid final evidence holds the full cell allowance while preserving
known charges. Reports distinguish provisional and incomplete costs.
- Accept namespaces containing only local function/custom tools. Disable
web search in the controlled Codex profile. Continue to reject hosted
tools, including tools hidden inside a namespace.
- Add controller tests to the existing Runner static test path and
document this source-checkout entry point.

## Verification

- 20 controller tests pass. They use real child processes, local HTTP,
and the actual ledger. Cases cover reservations before dispatch,
concurrent cell isolation, caps, cancellation, replay rejection, lost
artifacts, changed receipts, and Braintrust Claude routing. Upstream
responses are synthetic.
- 52 shared gateway tests and 55 Runner CLI tests pass. The namespace
acceptance and web-search configuration regressions failed before the
repair and pass afterward.
- Runner TypeScript/Rust checks, Runner build, shared E2E typecheck, and
`git diff --check` pass.
- The first actual-harness probe found that Codex advertised both a
local tool namespace and web search. It reached no upstream transport.
That failure is retained; the compatibility repair does not allow paid
hosted tools.
- An earlier test failure showed that separate dynamic imports created
different admission-error classes. The shared runtime bridge now loads
one module graph. Another regression showed that a missing final report
hid known ledger charges; the collector now preserves those charges.
- The repaired actual-harness probe passed its control checks for native
Codex and ACPX Claude: each reached exactly one synthetic upstream
request after the ledger reservation; both retained the unresolved hold
and route evidence; both recorded clean process exit. A scan of 41
retained files found no synthetic upstream credential. Deliberate
provider rejection preserved the failed Codex turn and Claude timeout;
these are not semantic passes. Prices, operating bounds, and the package
archive identity in this probe were synthetic.
- Review regressions reproduced lost request/receipt evidence, lost
admission metadata, executable replacement after verification, and a
SIGTERM-resistant descendant surviving the CLI. The repairs now pass.
Executable bytes are staged before launch; a trusted Node resolution
hook preserves relative imports. A symlink-path regression also failed
before its repair and now passes. The final staged native probe repeated
both one-request checks successfully.
- Full current-head
[CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40115932485)
passed on `4781487215116afd10a415d4db53b1ec8e004dd5`: all 58 check runs
and the legacy status are successful, neutral, or skipped. Greptile and
Paperclip both reviewed this commit at 5/5. All five finding threads are
fixed and resolved. No paid provider request ran during this change.

## Risks

- This is a trusted source-checkout controller, not a published package
command. It needs the repository's installed shared cost dependencies.
- The manifest declares reviewed prices and full-lifecycle bounds.
Synthetic tests do not qualify real prices, invoices, storage, or
Braintrust metering.
- The attempt-directory guard is local. Hosted fanout still needs unique
global allocations, rerun rejection, and durable private retention. Do
not enable the existing matrix on this change alone.
- Forced child termination can leave cleanup unverified. That attempt
remains incomplete and holds its full allocation. These checks do not
claim a host security boundary against an adversarial target.
- The current private publisher does not archive the separate controller
directory. Native trace relay, private report integration, and live
qualification remain open.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, tool use, and code
execution. This runtime does not expose the exact model ID or
context-window size.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 34409a92c4 fix(native-runtime): stop failover backups from carrying throwaway provider state (#17618)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runner sessions on managed sandboxes keep a failover backup
of provider state, so a replacement sandbox can resume the session
> - Each backup copies the provider's runtime directory, with a
per-directory sha256 manifest, minus `excludeEntries`
> - Codex already excludes credentials and re-downloadable plugin
caches; OpenCode excluded nothing, and ACPX excluded only per-agent
credentials
> - OpenCode also leaked a temporary HOME on every launch, because
removing it failed on the read-only skill snapshot inside and the error
was swallowed
> - So every backup carried every earlier launch's HOME (with its npm
cache) plus re-installable plugin `node_modules`
> - This pull request removes those homes correctly, sweeps homes left
by earlier versions, and excludes the throwaway entries from OpenCode
and ACPX backups
> - The benefit is much smaller backups and live session directories,
while session history is still backed up and restored

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Bug report described in-PR (bug report template).

**What happened?**
On one instance, current native failover backups totalled 24 GB across
about 300 sessions. For OpenCode sessions:
- `opencode/<session>/home-XXXXXX/`: 170 per-launch HOME directories
across 67 sessions, 9.3 GB. Each held `.npm` (about 111 MB of npm
cache), `.claude` (the skill snapshot) and `.local`.
- `opencode/<session>/config/opencode/node_modules`: 68 sessions, 4.3 GB
of OpenCode plugin installs.

One ACPX session also carried `acpx/<session>/data/pnpm/store` (229 MB
in the current backup, several GB in older copies).

Cause of the leaked homes: `startRuntime` in the OpenCode driver creates
a fresh `mkdtemp` HOME for each launch and seals the assigned skills
inside it (directories `0555`, files `0444`). `close()` and the
startup-failure paths removed it with `rm(..., { recursive: true, force:
true }).catch(() => undefined)`. That fails with `EACCES` on the sealed
directories, and the failure was ignored, so each launch left its HOME
behind.

**Expected behavior**
Per-launch homes are removed when the runtime closes, and backups hold
only state needed to resume a session. Caches that the provider
re-creates are left out.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run an OpenCode native session with at least one assigned skill on a
managed sandbox, over several turns or runs.
2. Inspect `<session>/` in the OpenCode runtime directory: one
`home-XXXXXX` per launch remains.
3. Inspect `failover-backups/current/opencode/<session>/`: the same
homes and `config/opencode/node_modules` are in the backup.

**Paperclip version or commit:** `master` at e335265568.
**Deployment mode:** any with native OpenCode/ACPX sessions on managed
sandboxes.
**Agent adapter(s) involved:** OpenCode (native), ACPX.

## What Changed

- OpenCode driver
(`packages/paperclip-runner/src/drivers/opencode/opencode-server-driver.ts`):
- `removeIsolatedHome` unseals the skill snapshot with the existing
`releaseMaterializedNativeRuntimeSkills`, then removes the HOME. Close
and every startup-failure path use it. It only unseals when `.claude` is
a real directory, not a symlink.
- Per-launch homes are now created under `<session>/homes/home-XXXXXX`,
so one exact path can be excluded.
- When a session opens, `home-*` directories left at the session root by
earlier versions are removed. History is not in them: OpenCode keeps it
in `XDG_DATA_HOME` (`<session>/data/opencode/opencode.db`), and HOME
only holds caches, state locks and the skill copy.
- Exports `opencodeRuntimeSessionDirectoryName` (the existing
session-directory naming) and `OPENCODE_ISOLATED_HOMES_DIRECTORY` for
the server.
- `resolveNativeHarnessPersistenceProfile`
(`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.ts`):
- OpenCode excludes `<session>/homes` and
`<session>/config/opencode/node_modules`.
- ACPX (every agent) excludes `acpx/<session>/home/.npm` and
`acpx/<session>/data/pnpm/store`, in addition to the existing per-agent
entries.
- `excludeEntries` are matched as exact relative paths (wildcards are
rejected), so the session directory is computed in the same way as the
existing ACPX entries.
- Exposes the two new exports through the server's runner vendor shim.

No code comments were added.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run src/drivers/opencode
src/drivers/runtime-context-materializer` (in
`packages/paperclip-runner/`): 108 passed. The 1 failure, `uses provider
structure rather than prose length to select a post-tool answer`, also
fails on unmodified `master`.
- The existing skill-tree test, with and without a startup retry, now
asserts that homes are created under `homes/` and that `homes/` is empty
after close.
- New test: a sealed legacy `home-*` at the session root is removed when
the session reopens, and `data/opencode/opencode.db` is kept.
- `pnpm exec vitest run src/services/native-runtime/
src/__tests__/native-harness-backup-expiration.test.ts` (in `server/`):
5080 passed. `plugin-runner-probe` could not run locally because of a
cargo manifest-path problem in this environment; it is unrelated to this
change.
- Profile tests cover the new OpenCode and ACPX exclusions, including a
session id that needs sanitizing.
- New checkpoint/restore round-trip tests for OpenCode and ACPX. They
use `syncRemoteRunnerDirectoryOut` for the backup and
`stageRemoteRunnerDirectory` for the replacement. Excluded caches are
absent from both the backup and the replacement, while history, config
and workspace files are restored and the live directory is unchanged.
- **Mutation checks**, each failing its test:
- removing the skill unsealing (homes leak again; 3 runner tests fail);
  - removing the legacy sweep (1 test fails);
  - emptying the OpenCode/ACPX exclusion lists (4 server tests fail).
- Checked by hand against the bundled OpenCode 1.18.34 binary, with the
driver's environment:
- launching with a fresh HOME and no `config/opencode/node_modules`
still lists earlier sessions;
  - OpenCode reinstalls the plugin dependencies on launch.
- `pnpm run typecheck` in `server/` and `packages/paperclip-runner/`:
pass.
- Not run: server build and boot smoke.

## Risks

- **Rollout:** existing backups still contain legacy `home-*`
directories. After a restore, the sweep removes them when the session
opens, and the next backup no longer carries them.
- **First launch after restore:** OpenCode reinstalls its plugin
dependencies and npm repopulates its cache. This needs network access to
the npm registry, the same as a brand-new session.
- **Crash leftovers:** a HOME left behind by a hard crash (the runner
killed before `close()`) stays under `homes/` until the session
directory is removed. It is still excluded from backups. Homes under
`homes/` are not swept on open, to avoid touching a HOME that a
concurrently running runtime might still use.
- **pnpm store:** dropping the pnpm store from ACPX backups means the
next `pnpm install` in a replacement sandbox downloads packages again.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), 1M context, through Claude Code
with tool use (shell, file edits, tests, and running the real OpenCode
binary to check what state it reads on resume).

DottaandPaperclip aec86c794b fix(runner): preserve native work through controller outages (#17594)
Keep remote native work under its authenticated connection lease through controller outages. Hold durable ACPX tools through reconnection, align the native Claude HTTP MCP client budget, and wait for the recovered handler before dispatch. Preserve Stop, cancellation, exact identity and artifact checks.

Verified with real-process regressions and a real Claude Opus 5.5 Daytona workflow: 125 seconds offline during useful work, original process and lease retained, no failed native tool calls, queued follow-up completed, independently verified ZIP and committed workspace receipts.

DottaandPaperclip 044628f59e Add explicit native tracing to the Runner eval CLI (#17483)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Runner Evals exercise real providers against a mock control plane.
> - The controlled gateway route creates a disposable provider home.
> - That route had no explicit native trace configuration.
> - Codex skips normal home preparation for a preconfigured home.
> - This change validates and applies the existing observability launch
contract before provider creation.
> - Operators can collect native evidence without passing vendor keys to
the child.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17440. Related: #17452 and #17469. This PR is based directly on
master and does not include those pending controller changes.

**Current behavior**

The eval-session CLI cannot pass an explicit native observability
launch. Passing environment alone cannot configure Codex in the
disposable gateway home.

**Proposed behavior**

Accept an opt-in descriptor bound to the gateway attempt. Validate the
existing provider launch contract, add a scoped relay token in memory,
and apply it only to the owned provider home and environment.

**Reason and benefit**

A controller can route native evidence through its bounded local relay
while the CLI keeps configuration distinct from verified ingestion. This
is the CLI contract; hosted controller integration remains separate
work.

## What Changed

- Add a strict, bounded descriptor reader for native Codex and ACPX
Claude. Bind campaign, execution, attempt, project, trace, span, and
mock authority identifiers.
- Reuse Runner observability materialization and redaction. Preserve the
model gateway route. Reject upstream destinations, extra environment
fields, credentials in headers, and unknown exporter settings.
- Add `--observability-config`, requiring an explicit gateway. Keep
direct and unconfigured paths unchanged.
- Retain secret-free configured/unverified metadata in success and
failure artifacts.
- Document the contract and controller responsibilities. No workflow,
runtime dependency, paid schedule, or public report changes.

## Verification

- Eval CLI regression selection: 81 passed before the test-only
relocation. The 17 new cross-package observability tests now pass from
`tests/runner-e2e/runner-eval-observability.test.ts`; their
integration-suite typecheck also passes. They use the actual shared
launch generator, real disposable homes, CLI success/failure paths, and
credential redaction. The first run exposed two test setup references
introduced by a broad edit; both were corrected and its failure log
remains retained.
- Runner TypeScript build and release daemon build passed. Full `pnpm -r
typecheck` passed.
- Actual native Codex and ACPX Claude reached a local receiver with
authenticated OTLP protobuf and the expected Braintrust parent. Codex
sent four log and two trace batches; Claude sent three log and one trace
batch. All recorded processes exited, disposable homes were removed, and
29 retained files contained neither synthetic credential.
- The local model endpoint deliberately returned 401. Codex retained a
failed terminal turn; Claude retained a provider timeout. These are
route/export proofs, not semantic eval passes. Native retries reached
only the fake endpoint. No paid provider or Braintrust request was made.
- The first local probe failed before provider launch because its
TypeScript loader path was wrong. It was corrected to the installed
loader; both attempts remain retained.
- Full repository build passed at initial head 7b75c0349f. The full
local test suite encountered repeated embedded PostgreSQL startup
failures before database-backed test bodies. It was stopped after five
affected suites (exit 143), so it is incomplete. Its log remains
retained. The same host had independently demonstrated PostgreSQL
semaphore exhaustion earlier in this task; this run did not collect that
lower-level error. Full hosted workflow 40131255078 passed on final head
23a172af32, including the database-backed
suites, Runner, build, typecheck and browser checks. Greptile is 5/5
with zero open threads. The secondary Paperclip reviewer ended neutral
without an assessment; it is not counted as a successful review. A
follow-up header-validation repair uses a map without a prototype and
passes the added negative regression. No exporter behavior changed.
- The CLI still reports native ingestion as unverified. No complete
capture, destination indexing, vendor billing bound, hosted admission,
or paid recurrence qualification is claimed.

- Package-boundary validation found two new imports from the standalone
Runner tests into other repository packages. Those tests now live in the
repository integration suite and use the actual launch generator there.
Its first run failed on a TOML parser resolved from the wrong package;
resolving that dependency from its Runner owner fixed the test. Three
pre-existing boundary/tracked-import findings remain in unchanged files;
this PR adds none.

## Risks

- This descriptor is intentionally narrow. Changes to the shared launch
contract must be reviewed against its validator and integration tests.
- The local relay receives native content under the selected capture
policy. Its controller must enforce ingestion quotas, shutdown, private
retention, and qualified cost bounds.
- Descriptor validation runs once before launch. It reads at most 128
KiB and refuses symlinks and non-regular files. Existing owned-home
config writing remains synchronous and small.
- Relay credentials are held in child memory. Persisted diagnostics and
artifacts use the existing redactor. The descriptor itself must remain
secret-free.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, tool use, and code
execution. This runtime does not expose the exact model ID or
context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip d1fdfced9d feat(evals): route Runner sessions through a controller gateway (#17440)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Runner Evals test provider behavior against a mock control plane.
> - A campaign budget needs to observe and admit each provider request.
> - The existing eval CLI does not select the provider-home mode needed
for a controller-assigned route.
> - A proxy URL alone therefore cannot establish controlled Codex
routing.
> - This change adds an explicit route with an isolated home and
retained identity.
> - The controller can use that route as the basis for request
accounting and admission.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

The direct Runner eval CLI passes the ambient environment to the native
transport. The transport deliberately removes an environment-only
preconfigured-home marker unless its explicit option is also set. This
prevents a controller from assigning a Codex gateway through that marker
alone.

**Expected behavior**

A controller can explicitly route a supported eval attempt through its
local proxy. The provider receives the proxy token and isolated
configuration. The artifact identifies the assigned route on success and
failure. Ordinary direct runs keep their current path.

**Steps to reproduce**

Run the new CLI tests for `--gateway-config`. They validate the
descriptor, inspect the actual transport inputs and provider sanitizers,
and check retained artifacts and owned-home cleanup. The local probe
also ran built native Codex and ACPX Claude against a fake loopback API
using only synthetic credentials.

Related request-accounting work:
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/17432.

## What Changed

- Add an explicit gateway descriptor bound to the requested provider,
exact model, campaign, execution, and attempt.
- Accept only the controller's IPv4 loopback URL and a separate proxy
token.
- Create a fresh provider home for native Codex and ACPX Claude. Exclude
ambient provider credentials, subscription logins, proxies, and startup
hooks.
- Retain route identity and descriptor hash in successful and failed
artifacts. Remove the owned home in finalization.
- Document the CLI contract and its limits.

The Runner eval CLI owns this behavior. It uses the existing native
preconfigured-home contract. Production routing, permissions, and
provider protocols are unchanged.

## Verification

- Initial verification passed 56 focused gateway/CLI tests and 246 CLI
and adjacent provider-isolation tests. After the admission repair, all
247 CLI and adjacent provider-isolation tests passed, with TypeScript
checks and build passing again.
- Runner TypeScript checks and build passed.
- The native daemon rebuilt from the candidate base with locked, offline
dependencies.
- Local fake-API probe: six authenticated Responses requests from native
Codex and six authenticated Messages requests from ACPX Claude reached
the assigned endpoint. Claude also made an unauthenticated hello check.
The final commit retained both route artifacts. All 27 retained files
were scanned for the synthetic proxy token and contained none. Both
temporary homes were removed, and all four recorded provider/daemon PIDs
were absent after exit.
- The fake API intentionally rejected inference. Codex retained a failed
turn; Claude retained a timeout. These are route observations, not
passing semantic evals or live provider qualification. No paid provider
calls ran.
- The first focused command used the wrong directory and discovered no
tests. It was corrected before the successful runs above.
- Full Runner validation: 3,967 tests passed, 13 skipped, and five
failed in three unchanged installation and native-settlement files. The
failures were two installation timeouts and three retained-cleanup
settlement failures. One isolated run passed all 109 applicable tests
with six skips. This shows recovery, not a proven cause for the original
five failures; those remain retained. Hosted [CI
40111220754](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40111220754)
passed on final commit `a5c47b64e56c1228fca718b72a81ddc3b1d185a4`,
including repository typecheck, build, tests and Runner checks. All 57
checks passed or were neutral/skipped, and the legacy status passed.
Greptile and Paperclip reviews both scored 5/5 on that commit; no
findings remain unresolved.
- Rebased onto current master
`71c04c0bfb205cc9e7f7bc20c29fd76051b44cc4`. Its added change concerns
server cleanup; Runner source is unchanged.

- An actual ACPX Codex probe failed before reaching the fake API. Review
and source inspection confirmed that Runner deliberately rejects its
preconfigured home to protect Runner state. This route is now rejected
before service creation. Both explicit and default ACPX Codex admission
regressions failed before the repair. The unsupported lane is not
presented as qualified.

## Risks

This is an explicit new CLI route. Unsupported providers fail before
service creation. Upstream route is a controller declaration, not
independent billing evidence. The local probe saw six Codex requests
where legacy usage counted one, so the controller's request ledger must
remain the budget source. Campaign allocation, proxy lifecycle, hosted
workflow wiring, dedicated OTLP relay routing, and paid qualification
are separate remaining integration steps. This PR enables none of those
schedules.

## Model Used

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

cc127f5516 fix(runner): drop unusable musl builds and duplicate Copilot from provider packs (#17387)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The runner release builds a Linux "provider pack". The pack is a
self-contained runtime with Node, Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode. The
Daytona runner image and SSH hosts use it.
> - The release artifacts for this pack are large: 1,182 MB for
linux-x64 and 543 MB for linux-arm64.
> - Most of that size is necessary. But about 20–30% of it is code that
the pack can never run.
> - pnpm 9 installs all libc variants of optional platform packages.
Thus the pack includes the musl (Alpine) builds of Claude Code and
OpenCode. The pack runs only its copied glibc Node, so these builds are
never used.
> - On linux-x64, the npm Copilot package is also a byte-identical copy
of the verified Copilot provider asset (162 MB).
> - This pull request removes these unused bytes from the pack at build
time.
> - The benefit is smaller release artifacts and Docker images, and
faster uploads and downloads.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
The runner release workflow uploads `runner-provider-packs-linux-x64`
(1,182 MB) and `runner-provider-packs-linux-arm64` (543 MB). The darwin
daemon artifacts are about 10 MB. The darwin artifacts are a different
artifact type, so the comparison is not direct. But inspection of the
extracted Linux packs found real waste:
- `@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk-linux-*-musl` (about 225 MB
uncompressed)
- `opencode-linux-*-musl` and `opencode-linux-x64-baseline-musl` (about
180 MB each)
- on linux-x64,
`node_modules/.pnpm/@github+copilot-linux-x64@1.0.88/.../copilot`, which
has the same SHA-256 (`0059754c…`) as
`provider-assets/copilot/linux-x64/copilot`

**Expected behavior**
The pack contains only code that its copied Node and its launch shims
can run.

**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at `e0d9033`. The inspected release run built commit `837add0`.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Install `@agentclientprotocol/claude-agent-acp@0.73.0` and
`opencode-ai@1.18.34` with pnpm 9.15.4 on a glibc Linux host.
2. List `node_modules/.pnpm`.
3. See the `*-musl` entries. Their `package.json` declares `"libc":
["musl"]`.

## What Changed

- `provider-pack-runtime-tree.mjs`: add `providerPackLibc()`. It reports
the libc of the Node that the pack copies (`glibc` or `musl` on Linux,
none on other platforms).
- `provider-pack-runtime-tree.mjs`: add
`removeForeignLibcPackagesFromProviderPack()`. It removes each pnpm
virtual-store entry whose own `package.json` declares a `libc` list
without the pack libc. Packages without a `libc` field stay (for example
`@openai/codex-linux-*`, which holds Codex's static musl binary).
- `provider-pack-runtime-tree.mjs`: add `removePnpmStoreEntries()`. It
removes store entries and every symlink that resolves into them, so no
dangling link stays in the pack. It refuses names outside
`node_modules/.pnpm`.
- `provider-pack-executable-shims.mjs`: when
`provider-assets/copilot/<platform>/copilot` has the same bytes as the
npm Copilot executable, the `copilot-<platform>` command now points at
the asset and the npm copy is removed. If the bytes are different, the
old behavior stays.
- `build-provider-pack.mjs`: run the libc prune immediately after `pnpm
deploy`. Log the removed entries.
- No file bound by `provider-pack.json` changes. Thus the manifest
digest and the qualification and digest pins do not change.

## Verification

- `node --test
packages/paperclip-runner/scripts/provider-pack-runtime-tree.test.mjs
packages/paperclip-runner/scripts/provider-pack-executable-shims.test.mjs
packages/paperclip-runner/scripts/candidate-provider-pack.test.mjs
packages/paperclip-runner/scripts/release-provider-pack.test.mjs`: 40/40
pass.
- The new Copilot test fails with the old
`provider-pack-executable-shims.mjs` and passes with the new file.
- A real pnpm 9.15.4 tree with the pack's provider dependencies, on
linux-x64 (glibc):
- The prune removed `@anthropic-ai+claude-agent-sdk-linux-x64-musl`,
`opencode-linux-x64-musl`, and `opencode-linux-x64-baseline-musl`. The
Copilot dedupe removed the npm Copilot entry.
  - `node_modules` changed from 1.9 GB to 1.1 GB.
  - `find node_modules -xtype l` found no dangling links.
- The claude-agent-acp SDK still resolves
`@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk-linux-x64/claude`.
  - `opencode --version` prints `1.18.34`.
- The rewritten `copilot-linux-x64` prints `GitHub Copilot CLI 1.0.88.`
- Earlier measurement: we pruned the same paths from the extracted pack
artifacts and compressed them again with `tar -czf`. linux-x64 went from
1131 MB to 876 MB. linux-arm64 went from 519 MB to 360 MB.
- Not run locally: a full `build-provider-pack.mjs` build. This sandbox
has 10 GB of disk, which is not sufficient for a full workspace install
and a 3 GB pack. The `release-verify.yml` provider-pack step and the
Daytona image `RUN claude/codex/acpx --version` checks run the full
build.
- `test/acpx-codex-package-contract.test.mjs` has 1 failure in this
sandbox, and the failure is the same on `master`. The cause is that this
checkout has no `node_modules`.

## Risks

- Low risk. All pack builds run on glibc hosts (Debian bookworm images
and Ubuntu CI). On a musl build host, the prune removes the glibc
packages, and the existing Claude executable resolution fails at build
time. Before this change, that build gave a pack with a Claude binary
that could not run.
- The `copilot-linux-x64` command now runs the binary from
`provider-assets/copilot/linux-x64/`. The bytes are identical. Runtime
admission already uses this asset, through the descriptor-pinned lease.
- The pack content changes but the manifest digest does not. The remote
verifier checks only the bound artifacts, `dist`, and provider asset
trees. None of these change.
- Not in this pull request: Pi's bundled Node is byte-identical to the
pack Node (121 MB, about 43 MB compressed). A fix for it changes the
qualified Pi closure digest. Also, the `release.yml` publish jobs
download the full packs, but they read only `provider-pack.json`. These
are possible follow-ups.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (Anthropic), model ID `claude-opus-5-5`, used through
Claude Code with tool use (shell, file edit) and code execution in a
sandbox.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #16996 and #17158. This is the consolidated landing of the reviewed
eval operations stack: #17019, #17024, #17025, #17027, #17030, #17033,
#17035, #17038, #17043, #17044, #17048, #17050, #17051, #17092, #17096,

#17130, #17133, #17134, #17137, #17140, #17143, #17154. The repository
permits squash merges only. A local rehearsal showed that squashing each
slice into master causes repeated conflicts in dependent slices. This PR
preserves their commits and lands their combined implementation in one
reviewed integration. Superseded slices will close after this merge.

## What Changed

- Retain every attempt's cost receipt, including setup, failures,
interruptions and retries. Separate reported amounts, estimates, missing
costs and reserved capacity in reports and dashboards.
- Add bounded request admission, exact model pricecards, gateway error
accounting, cache policy and reconciliation evidence. Refuse unsupported
routes and requests that cannot fit the allowance.
- Integrate Braintrust gateway traces and OTLP correlation, with secret
filtering and experiment imports. Record phase timing, including setup,
feedback capture and cleanup.
- Collect complaint and suggestion evidence after each attempt,
including recovery after failures. Retain explicit review dispositions
independently from the product grade.
- Add gated daily and weekly selections, measured forecasts,
setup/readiness checks, wall-time limits and retained monitor
notifications. Include declared non-model overhead in admission while
reporting the existing subscription separately.
- Keep recurring history private, bound uploads and retention, and use
isolated archive environments. Keep public publication an explicit
operation. Report and publication jobs install only the committed
lockfile, with scripts disabled and isolated stores; stale pins fail
closed.
- Integrate current master, preserve its Product E2E journey billing and
privacy checks, and test that shared setup receipts do not double-count
estimated agent usage. Preserve upstream fixture repairs.

## Verification

- Complete integration baseline
`0649a5ce7544ab20825c2183d2f421157db49f24` includes master
`a3e1d915a7110a4e115b46396a3f79e6dfb4d05e` and every original stack head
as ancestors.
- On that integration baseline, `pnpm test:e2e:runner:unit`: 4,012
Vitest tests passed, two skipped, across 193 files; all 137 Node
source-contract tests passed.
- Focused billing and Product E2E journey contract checks: 24 tests
passed. They cover estimates, unknown receipts, single-owner setup
costs, browser-only execution and private publication guards.
- Monitor and workflow wiring: all 96 Node tests passed. `node
scripts/check-token-gates.mjs`: all gates clean.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck` passes after the standard Runner
TypeScript build refreshed local declarations. The first attempt
rejected the new master `runner_prepared_launch` union member because
this checkout retained an older generated declaration; the source union
already contained that member.
- Current head `492b0708a1c531a023d9ac10f0f3dc6383cc1754` removes
dependency re-resolution from archive-authorized reporting jobs after
the security scan flagged it. All 15 workflow-security tests pass after
updating the old two-install assertion.
- Hosted [CI run
39965460180](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39965460180)
passes on the current repaired head, including typecheck, build, general
tests, Runner checks, browser shards and canary dry run. Greptile is 5/5
on this exact head with no unresolved threads. The security scan passes
after the fixed lockfile-resolution thread was resolved.
- Paperclip Review returned a terminal neutral check but an incomplete
0-file assessment on the repaired head: its platform blocked both diff
responses as prompt-injection content. This is not a successful code
review. No bypass or fabricated pass was attempted; current-head
Greptile, security and hosted CI are independent gates.
- No paid test, reservation release or recurring-run activation
accompanies this landing. Live route qualification and invoice
reconciliation remain separate evidence.

<details>
<summary>Retained earlier validation failures</summary>

Earlier broad local runs had two 15-second test timeouts (CLI poll
cadence and Retry validation), one embedded-database setup timeout, and
later PostgreSQL semaphore exhaustion. The exact timed-out tests passed
separately without larger timeouts; the broad-run causes were not
established. Those local failures remain distinct from subsequent hosted
CI results. The independent #17158 fix records its Muse fixture
collision, its UUID correction and hosted verification. Local Muse
execution was also blocked by macOS embedded-PostgreSQL startup. No
historical failure is treated as a successful paid qualification.

</details>

## Risks

- Admission is a local control, not a provider invoice cap. Missing
provider receipts or resource charges retain unknown amounts and holds;
estimates do not become billed dollars.
- The bounded path admits only documented local suites and provider
routes. Ordinary legacy or separate Runner protocol campaigns have
different controls. Merging this code does not qualify additional
routes.
- Recurrence still needs the existing enable gates and current
qualification/allowance evidence. Archive permissions and resources must
match the documented private-environment contract.
- Legacy reports may lack complete attempt or phase evidence. Reports
preserve that limitation and do not infer zero usage from missing data.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository tools and code
execution. The exact deployment variant and context-window size are not
exposed by this session.

DottaandPaperclip a3e1d915a7 fix(evals): preserve unknown Codex provider cost (#17158)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Direct Runner evals report usage and costs for each attempt.
> - Codex App Server supplies token counts without a provider USD
receipt.
> - The legacy Runner ledger fills an absent cost with zero.
> - The eval result exposed that ledger value as provider-reported cost.
> - This fix keeps provider cost unknown and preserves the estimate and
budget stop.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17009 and #17154. This is a separate direct Runner accounting fix
based on master.

## What Changed

- Codex direct eval usage now reports null provider USD cost with
unavailable provenance. Token counts and the pinned price estimate
remain available.
- Preserve the original ledger amount as optional
`legacyLedgerCostNanodollars`. Keep the original snapshot receipts
unchanged.
- Apply the existing budget ceiling to the retained ledger amount as
well as the token estimate. Correcting a label does not relax admission
or settlement checks.
- Use the unique operator UUID for Muse test company prefixes,
eliminating collisions from the previous 24-bit random suffix.
- Document the cost distinction in the Runner/Evals integration
contract. Other provider behavior and historical artifacts remain
unchanged.

## Verification

- Reproduced both zero and nonzero legacy amounts being labelled as
provider USD cost before the fix.
- The current eval-session contract and entrypoint tests pass (39
tests). The new regression uses the bounded usage consumer and actual
campaign cost projection. It checks unknown provider cost, the separate
estimate, unchanged raw evidence and the legacy ledger budget stop.
- All 15 Runner report, campaign and metrics Node tests pass. Four
adjacent CLI entrypoint/runtime tests also pass.
- Runner TypeScript validation passes with its standard dependency-build
prerequisite; `git diff --check` passes. Both Runner TypeScript
configurations also passed during the original accounting verification.
- Hosted CI run
[39960367674](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39960367674)
passes on `7d84f138044bac58cdced6baa2d0ec3d63767bb8`, including
typecheck, build, server tests and browser checks. Greptile and
Paperclip Review both report 5/5 on that commit with no actionable
findings.
- The previous CI failure was a PostgreSQL unique-index collision on
`companies_issue_prefix_idx` during Muse fixture setup. Local Muse
verification could not reach test execution because embedded PostgreSQL
timed out during macOS startup (initially reporting a missing zstd
library). The corrected fixture passed in hosted Linux CI.
- Verification used no model calls. Full repository checks were
performed by hosted CI; local verification was scoped to the changed
contracts and fixture.

## Risks

Consumers that assumed Codex always had a numeric provider cost must
handle null. The contract already permits null for other profiles, and
the report consumer retains missing-cost coverage. The legacy amount
remains available as unverified evidence and still triggers the existing
budget stop. Neither the estimate nor that ledger amount proves an
invoice charge. This change does not rewrite old artifacts or qualify
other provider routes.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with repository tools and code execution.
The exact deployment variant and context-window size are not exposed by
this session.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 0081863463 Fix isolated ACPX admission for assigned PRP tools (#17149)
## Thinking Path

- Paperclip uses Runner to execute agent tasks under Core's selected
policy.
- The ACPX sidecar can receive assigned MCP tools in its PRP catalog.
- Isolated admission still requires a separate native MCP endpoint for
those assignments.
- This check rejects a valid PRP route before the provider can start.
- This PR identifies the sidecar's PRP transport at the runtime-host
boundary.
- The benefit is that assigned tools work with the existing isolated
permission policy.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

An isolated Claude task with an assigned MCP binding fails with
`assigned native MCP launch binding is unavailable` when Core delivers
its tools through PRP.

**Expected behavior**

The sidecar must accept its authenticated PRP tool bridge as the
assigned-tool route. Callers that use the native gateway must still
supply its complete binding.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Open an isolated Claude sidecar session with `deny-all` permissions
and a read-only policy.
2. Supply an assigned MCP binding in the runtime context and its tools
in the PRP catalog.
3. Omit native gateway environment variables. Admission fails before
provider startup.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced against `92cfd701c39bb1ea394a796023481a21decb2532`.

**Deployment mode**

Runner with an ACPX sidecar and controller-owned tool delivery. Related
contract work: #16978. The search found no existing PR or issue for this
failure.

## What Changed

- Let runtime-host callers select PRP delivery when they supply the
semantic tool bridge.
- Select that route in the sidecar. Keep native gateway validation and
direct callers' default behavior.
- Preserve exact controller operation names in PRP mode, including the
compact assigned-MCP catalog. Keep existing aliases for other bridge
callers.
- Preserve the selected permission and read-only policies.
- Add one process-level sidecar regression and one host admission
regression. The host test calls the real authenticated MCP bridge.
- Document the route and refresh the generated Copilot source hashes.
The provider and profile versions stay the same.

## Verification

- Passed 11 focused tests after the rebase across the runtime host,
sidecar, tool bridge, and Copilot identity tests. They cover both
compact catalog operations, restricted and approve-all policies, legacy
aliases, missing and invalid gateway bindings, and the existing direct
gateway path.
- The process-level test crosses the real sidecar dispatcher and stops
at workspace validation before provider startup. The host test uses real
ownership sockets and MCP HTTP, with a fake provider port.
- The generated identity tests match the current source hashes. The
historical fixture stays unchanged.
- The standard review passed on the rebased commit. [Apex passed the
required 5/5
threshold](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/runs/119513362214)
on `e63a223`, with 11 files reviewed and no findings.
- Rebased onto master `734c265`. The conflicts affected generated source
identities and their test expectations. All reviewed behavior files
remain byte-for-byte unchanged. The user authorized retaining the Apex
result for this rebase. [CI passed on
`3facef5`](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39685163239).
The final PR checks contain 56 passes and four expected skips. The
branch is current with master, has no conflicts, and has no unresolved
review comments.
- `node packages/paperclip-runner/scripts/copilot-profile-identity.mjs
--check` passed.
- Initial local runs exposed missing test dependencies and sandbox
denial of loopback sockets. After the scoped dependency install and
socket permission, the selected tests passed.
- Broad typecheck, build, and test verification runs in GitHub CI, as
requested. No live provider or model request was made.

## Risks

- PRP callers must supply the assigned tools in the controller-owned
catalog. The existing bridge still enforces its closed catalog and
authentication.
- An explicit PRP selection without a semantic bridge still fails.
Invalid native gateway bindings still fail.
- No database, protocol-frame, provider-version, or credential-storage
change is required.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with source inspection, editing, and command
execution. The exact served model ID and context-window size are not
exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 734c265339 Default new Pi agents to Paperclip Runner (#17142)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Users choose a harness during agent setup.
> - Claude, Codex, and OpenCode already receive their qualified Runner
default.
> - Pi has a qualified native integration but new Pi agents still use
the direct adapter.
> - This change gives new Pi agents the native default on supported
targets.
> - Saved agents keep their runner and compatible settings. Legacy
remains available in Advanced.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17120, #14921, #14922, #14923, #14924, and #14956. Related generic
default work: #15422. This PR is the separate Pi follow-up to the merged
OpenCode change.

**Current behavior**

Choosing Pi for a new agent saves the direct Pi adapter. The native Pi
integration remains behind the generic experimental flag.

**Proposed behavior**

Default new Pi agents to ACPX Pi on macOS ARM64/x64 and GNU/Linux x64
with supported glibc. Keep unsupported targets and explicit Legacy
selections on the direct adapter. Require an explicit provider/model
before test or hire. Permit model-free inactive setup drafts.

**Reason and benefit**

Users choose Pi once and receive its qualified runner. Saved agents
retain their identity and settings. Conversions reject unsupported
legacy thinking and launch settings instead of dropping them.

## What Changed

- Add Pi to the shared platform/default contract and server creation
selection.
- Admit native Pi without the generic experimental flag.
- Preserve provider models, credentials, workspace settings, exact
thinking, and saved native policies.
- Add Pi runner controls, branding, setup resume, onboarding, built-in
configuration, and import handling.
- Add managed Pi OpenRouter routing and matching native provider API-key
accounts. Keep subscription and custom gateway exclusions. Clear
alternate credentials and reject custom Pi provider overrides.
- Keep Pi draft models empty instead of applying Claude's default model.
- Verify setup against the pinned Pi runtime. For native Pi on the
official OpenRouter route, reverify the API key live without requiring a
global Legacy Pi CLI.
- Match Pi’s bounded controller close window to its native snapshot
cleanup and lifetime verification, preserving explicit caller deadlines
and the mandatory drain/suspension proof.
- Bind Pi sidecars to the package that owns the pinned native assets,
including source and vendored server layouts. Other providers retain
their existing package authority.
- Keep protocol-owned finish/block tools out of the ACPX forwarded
catalog. The trusted bridge installs these tools itself; the complete
Rust authorization catalog and terminal receipt ledger remain intact.
This fixes actual Pi session startup and applies to other ACPX
consumers.
- Advance Copilot’s shared-source attestation to v58 because it pins the
shared files touched by Pi. Preserve immutable v57 bytes and historical
decoding; Pi’s own release identity is unchanged.
- Add regression coverage and update the paired maps and developer
documentation.

## Verification

- Passed: full repository typecheck and full production build on final
head 656d304783, including the generated attestation repair.
- Passed: focused shared/server/UI suites covering default selection,
platform fallback, conversion preservation, inactive drafts, managed
account compatibility, credential isolation, OpenRouter routing/model
IDs, exact thinking controls, and saved-account selection. Relevant
batches include 375 server/conversion tests, 267 account/routing tests,
and 110 UI setup/account tests.
- Passed: 179 attestation, historical-profile, qualified-profile, and
native-execution contract tests after CI identified stale Copilot source
hashes. The identity generator check passes; the only delta after the
passing Pi browser run is this Copilot attestation/history repair.
- Passed: 145 managed-account tests, including actual service
preparation and API-key adoption/rejection for native Pi without the
Legacy CLI; 6 pinned-installation probe tests.
- Red then green: an actual task failed session.open because its
54-operation catalog included the bridge-owned terminal tools. The
regression with those tools failed before the filter; all 399 Rust
library tests pass after it. The full product retry exposed an
additional package-authority mismatch. Four authority tests failed
before that repair; 11 authority checks and 14 installation/asset checks
pass afterward. Direct real Pi session initialization with the corrected
package root and catalog succeeds. No model prompt was sent by that
diagnostic.
- Red then green: real Pi posted Hello from Pi but its controller closed
before native cleanup could finish. The cleanup-budget test failed with
the old default and passes with the bounded Pi window. All 46 selected
suspension, drain, and package-authority tests pass after building their
native fixture.
- Passed: token gates, paired map checks, Rust formatting, and git diff
--check.
- Passed real browser acceptance on macOS ARM64, generic native runner
flag disabled, source a433748a12 (Pi code unchanged afterward): the UI
selects Paperclip Runner by default, retains Pi and the selected
model/account, and verifies the pinned runtime plus live OpenRouter key.
A fresh UI-created task, assigned to the UI-created native Pi agent,
posted exactly `Hello from Pi` and reached Done without retry or
restart. The native run and workspace finalization succeeded; the
response and Done persisted after Reload.
- Evidence: 8 preserved browser attempts, including the final passing
18-step journey with all screenshots. Prior failures remain recorded.
The earlier failed checkpoint run recovered on server restart; that
recovery is separate from the fresh final task’s clean success.
- Preserved browser failures: missing account control/inherited Claude
draft model; incompatible managed-account/model-prefix handling; generic
npm probe for Pi; Legacy CLI hello check; duplicate terminal tools and
wrong provider-package authority at actual native session.open; a real
Hello from Pi comment followed by premature checkpoint cleanup timeout.
Each failure has retained screenshots/logs and a corresponding focused
repair. The fresh final task proves these repairs end to end.
- The exact Runner Vitest shard was also run locally after the
attestation fix: the stale-hash failure is gone; 1,833 tests passed, 10
skipped, and two Codex retained-control settlement scenarios failed with
`native_cleanup_maintenance_unproven` during terminal ACK/suspension
replay. Both scenarios passed in an isolated rerun (2/2), and the same
19-test file passed in the preceding Linux CI run. The precise
full-shard timing cause is not established. These Codex scenarios are
outside the changed Pi paths; the original local failures are retained;
no complete local Runner-shard pass is claimed. The corresponding Runner
shard now passes on the final head in hosted Linux CI. All 60 final-head
check runs are now terminal and clean (55 successful, 1 neutral, 4
skipped), and the legacy Snyk status is successful.
- Local full repository tests were attempted but not completed:
provisioning briefly confused a workspace symlink, then a later run was
stopped before browser-driven repairs. No full local-suite pass is
claimed. Final-head hosted CI is green and fresh Greptile review is 5/5
with all review threads resolved; earlier jobs canceled by runner
shutdown are not counted as a pass.

## Risks

- Pi cleanup has a finite 45-second default window, accounting for the
native 30-second snapshot cleanup and 5-second lifetime fence. Other
providers and explicit caller deadlines retain their prior behavior.
- Pi requires explicit operator setup with `paperclipai runtime setup
pi` on the execution host. This PR does not add automatic downloads.
- Linux ARM64, Windows, musl, and unqualified targets retain Legacy.
- Legacy thinking levels minimal, medium, and xhigh cannot be translated
exactly. Native max thinking, warm lifecycle, or restricted permissions
cannot be dropped during a return to Legacy.
- Copilot’s bound profile advances to v58 with exact current launch
admission; v57 remains decodable for recovery. No historical identity is
rewritten.
- Existing agents and immutable run descriptors are not migrated. Cloud
Pi availability is unchanged.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex with reasoning, code editing, command
execution, and browser use. The exact serving model ID and
context-window size are not exposed in this session.
