DottaandPaperclip 1e0cfcb4fc test: retire redundant suites and consolidate owner coverage (#15978)
Retire duplicate ACPX and Codex proof after migrating unique assertions to their behavioral owners. Consolidate repeated fixtures and exact case matrices while preserving lifecycle, protocol, company, credential, approval, and ordering contracts. Remove the unused runtime-controls compatibility path and document test ownership and preservation evidence.

DottaandPaperclip d6e6d1c78a Stream OpenCode immediately, scope reasoning to turns, and deduplicate instructions (#15708)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip helps people manage AI agents and observe their work.
> - The native runner carries provider output into the task transcript.
> - OpenCode sends incremental text in `message.part.delta` events.
> - The driver ignored those events and waited for a full part snapshot.
Accepted chats also waited after lifecycle verification was complete.
> - This pull request forwards each valid chunk as it arrives and
removes unnecessary isolated startup work.
> - Valid chunks reach Paperclip sooner without changing completion or
permission rules. The matched browser experiment below does not
establish a reliable end-to-end latency improvement.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

The native OpenCode driver withheld text until OpenCode sent a full
snapshot. A local delayed-provider probe with the pinned OpenCode
1.18.34 runtime showed a 1,496 ms gap between the first native text
delta and the first Paperclip text delta (1,510 ms from provider text).

**Expected behavior**

Forward valid assistant text and reasoning deltas immediately. Preserve
repeated identical tokens, message roles, turn ownership, and final
response selection.

**Steps to reproduce**

Send an empty text part, then text deltas, and withhold the final full
snapshot. The new fixture requires the consumer to acknowledge its first
text delta before releasing the snapshot. The previous driver cannot
pass this handshake.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Baseline: `011e5669bad61c435a4745fb10812bef70376841`. The patch is
rebased onto current master.

**Deployment mode**

Local native OpenCode 1.18.34 on macOS arm64. Live diagnostics use
`openrouter/deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash-0731`. These are narrow
diagnostics, not full Product E2E qualification.

## What Changed

- Keep the macOS verified OpenCode launch pathname until child exit,
with guarded reuse and cleanup on failed launches. This fixes a
reproduced asynchronous executable-lifetime failure.
- Dispatch accepted queued chats immediately after lifecycle readiness
commits, through normal scheduler admission. Preserve ready state if
dispatch fails.
- Validate native OpenCode model access with the real hello probe
without a redundant catalog scan. Keep legacy adapter discovery
unchanged and isolate unspecified native probe directories.
- Map incremental text and reasoning to the existing canonical event
path, using observed part and message identities.
- Keep additive chunks without IDs distinct. Preserve ID-based event
deduplication.
- Clear current streaming part metadata when a new turn starts. Reject
mismatched session/message identities and unknown parts or fields.
- Disable automatic updates, remote model refreshes, and default plugins
in each isolated OpenCode process. Keep assigned MCP tools and default
model reasoning intact.
- Retain the latest cumulative text/reasoning part while its message
role is unknown, including completion metadata after more than 100
chunks.
- Expose `startTurn({ message, reasoningMode: "disabled" })` for one
OpenCode/OpenRouter turn. Carry the selection in the durable command
through Rust and the proxy. An omitted/default option restores provider
defaults on the next turn, including warm and recovered sessions. There
is no environment-level setting or automatic selection policy.
- Group optional Rust turn inputs in `CodexTurnOptions` and dispatch
through `start_turn_with_options`; retain `start_turn` for defaults.
Future turn settings can be added without another feature-specific
method.
- Expose a native-session capability for per-turn reasoning and reject
explicit unsupported selections before dispatch, including direct ACPX
and Codex backends. Runnerd checks the durable selected model as well as
the provider.
- Remove duplicate agent instructions from the shared OpenCode proxy
task envelope for all users. Send one system copy on every turn,
including prepared and resumed turns, because OpenCode reads the latest
user message’s system field. Preserve task constraints and completion
contracts.
- Document startup and streaming behavior. Add regression coverage for
role ordering, repeated chunks, final snapshot deduplication, and stale
turns.

## Verification

### Lower-load browser retry — 2026-10-10

**All 8/8 trials succeeded. In this batch, median Send → first visible
reply fell from 30.586 s to 12.476 s (59.2% lower).** Four fresh-agent
trials per variant, phase order before/after/after/before with two
trials per phase. Every adjacent-phase pair favored the candidate,
although one difference was only 0.301 s. This is evidence for the
readiness/probe changes on this host, not a production percentile or a
guarantee across providers.

| Phase/trial | Variant | Send → reply (s) | Observed ready → run (s) |
Session open → turn start (s) | Model requests |
|---|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|
| 0/0 | before | 45.042 | 25.337 | 3.629 | 2 |
| 0/1 | before | 13.689 | 0.000 | 2.443 | 2 |
| 1/0 | after | 14.696 | 0.000 | 2.526 | 1 |
| 1/1 | after | 13.389 | 0.000 | 2.470 | 2 |
| 2/0 | after | 10.871 | 0.000 | 2.706 | 2 |
| 2/1 | after | 11.564 | 0.004 | 2.443 | 2 |
| 3/0 | before | 41.582 | 21.518 | 2.376 | 2 |
| 3/1 | before | 19.589 | 9.753 | 2.707 | 1 |

Observed ready-to-run median: **15.636 s → 0 s**; zero means execution
began by the first ready observation, not literally zero latency.
Polling interval is nominally 250 ms plus HTTP time.
Session-open-to-turn-start includes controller handling, not just child
startup. All eight ran within the existing startup timeouts; no timeout
or reasoning policy was changed. Host load at fixture creation stayed
**5.47–8.73 on 18 CPUs**, versus 68.9–100.8 in the prior campaign. No
builds/tests ran concurrently with measurement.

Same merged source **b0a0158729a7913882a0e756fe7e27228d72bf53**, release
runner, rebuilt static UI, OpenCode **1.18.34**, model
**openrouter/deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash-0731**, provider-default
reasoning, and empty isolated workspaces in both variants. Only the
readiness worker and explicit-model verification source were toggled;
the launch-lifetime fix and all proxy streaming changes were held
constant. Thus this does not separately measure the original streaming
changes. One browser per phase, two fresh companies/agents/chats per
phase. Measurement begins at capture-phase Send click and ends on
visible Hi text plus two animation frames. Status/thinking is excluded;
emoji can arrive just after the first text. Successful screenshots
inspected. Each variant had three two-request turns using
`paperclip_finish` and one one-request turn; no status lookup was
observed. Reported usage includes settlement after the first visible
reply.

variant source hashes are unchanged from the preserved comparison below.
Measured turn cost **$0.00612574**, plus verification probes not
included in that figure. All eight attempts retained; all source/proxy
files restored and test supervisors exited.

Current commit validation: **53 successful CI checks, 4 skipped, zero
failing; Greptile 5/5 on b0a0158729 with no actionable findings.** The
previous 20 targeted post-merge tests passed. No source edit was made
for this rerun. Earlier failed and inconclusive cohorts below remain
historical evidence and are not pooled with this batch.


### Master update and failure diagnosis — 2026-10-09

Merged `origin/master` at `417db14e7d` into this branch without
conflicts; pushed merge commit
`b0a0158729a7913882a0e756fe7e27228d72bf53`. The incoming changes do not
alter OpenCode process startup or its timeout budgets. Historical
measurements below remain attributed to their original commits.

The four last-campaign failures never issued `turn.start`, so these were
**cold-session admission failures, not model replies failing**. Two
retained `session.open` commands eventually completed after controller
timeout/cleanup had begun. The other two ended with the inner
`thread/start` response timeout, and their diagnostics recorded OpenCode
startup retries. Startup event timestamps are buffered publication times
and must not be interpreted as exact process-spawn times.

On the merged source, two credential-free startup-only checks used the
real pinned OpenCode 1.18.34, empty temporary workspaces, a placeholder
key, and **no model turns**:

- Existing pinned executable: spawn at 1.083 s; failed health
attempt/retry at 11.311 s and 21.914 s; third process healthy at 32.210
s; session opened at **35.168 s**.
- Verified private executable path: snapshot preparation took **0.497
s**; process spawned at 1.588 s; healthy at 9.967 s; session opened at
**11.120 s**.

These are sequential diagnostic samples, not evidence that one
executable path is faster. Host load was **56.5–64.5 on 18 logical
CPUs**. The local health wait permits 10 s per attempt and the driver
retries up to three times; the outer controller's cold admission budget
is 30 s, and the Rust facade also waits 30 s for a response. Thus
retries plus setup/session creation can outlast the caller's budget. The
isolated 35.168 s success demonstrates that a session can eventually
open yet fail the app's admission deadline. Heavy load aggravates the
timing; its exact contribution is not isolated. No timeout was increased
and no new model-latency claim is made.

Merge validation: **20/20 targeted lifecycle-policy and heartbeat
run-completion tests passed**, including temporary PostgreSQL cases. The
first sandbox invocation skipped database cases; the authorized local-DB
rerun executed all 20. The package-manager launcher could not verify its
version via the unreachable registry, so validation used the
already-installed Vitest binary. Full CI/review subsequently passed on
this merge commit; see the October 10 retry above. Older results below
apply to their named commits.


### Follow-up: reproduced macOS launch failure — 2026-10-09

The retry exposed a startup bug rather than only host-load noise. The
macOS proxy deleted the private verified executable path immediately
after asynchronous spawn. A credential-free test of the actual pinned
OpenCode `--version` reproduced a fast SIGKILL and a 15-second timeout
in three immediate-cleanup attempts; three deferred-cleanup controls
succeeded. The timeout was killed by the diagnostic's own deadline. This
experiment does not establish the OS-internal reason for the fast
SIGKILL.

Commit `c30451e0ebf3f74e9ef70d37bbe4d9fe7fb56359` retains the private
launch path until child exit, cleans failed spawns, and waits for forced
shutdown before reuse. Source descriptor authentication, ownership,
mode, inode checks, and the prohibition on ambient executable fallback
remain. Overlapping reuse fails closed. The existing synchronous shell
test was changed to exercise the actual asynchronous boundary.

**Verification:** 59 focused proxy/driver tests passed; runner
TypeScript check passed. All six subsequent real OpenCode version
launches succeeded without timeout (4.11, 4.33, 5.73, 6.91, 4.95, 6.70
seconds). The native Rust binary is unchanged from the retry; no model
calls were made by these diagnostics.

Retained interrupted retry: before 42.56/18.69 seconds; after one
180-second timeout (`provider_process_exited` / health SIGKILL) and one
37.33-second success. The latter overlapped the credential-free
diagnostic and is not a clean matched timing. The next phase was stopped
before Send to diagnose the reproduced bug. Reported measured-turn cost:
$0.0016874, verification probes additional. These attempts are not
pooled with other campaigns.

<!-- launch-fixed-proof:start -->
**Completed retry, stopped by the declared failure rule after 6 of 8
planned trials. No reliable end-to-end speedup demonstrated.** At commit
`c30451e0ebf3f74e9ef70d37bbe4d9fe7fb56359`, the launch fix above was
held constant in both variants; only the readiness handoff and
explicit-model verification path changed. Planned phase order:
before/after/after/before, two fresh agents/chats per phase, one new
browser per phase. The second after phase had two consecutive failures,
so the final before phase was not run.

| Phase/trial | Variant | Send → first visible reply | Observed ready →
run | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0/0 | before | No reply within 180 s | 2.777 s | session.open timeout
|
| 0/1 | before | 47.654 s | 9.383 s | Succeeded |
| 1/0 | after | 50.051 s | 0.087 s | Succeeded |
| 1/1 | after | No reply within 180 s | 0.151 s | session.open timeout |
| 2/0 | after | No reply within 180 s | 3.337 s | session.open timeout |
| 2/1 | after | No reply within 180 s | 1.434 s | session.open timeout |

Both successful screenshots show “Hi 👋”. Timing starts at the browser's
capture-phase Send click and ends at the first visible answer text plus
two animation frames; the first fragment can be “Hi” before the emoji
arrives. Thinking/status text is not counted. All four failures were
`runner_local_connect_failed: PRP command session.open timed out`
(`native_session_interrupted`), before a reply; none reported the
earlier health-stage SIGKILL. They are retained, not discarded as
outliers. One success per variant does not support a speedup estimate or
median comparison. Observed ready-to-run median was **6.080 s before
(n=2) vs 0.793 s after (n=4)**; this is sampled every nominal 250 ms
plus HTTP latency and is a lower bound, not precise tracing. Host load
at fixture creation ranged **68.9–100.8 on 18 logical CPUs**, a
substantial confound that worsened over the campaign. No local
build/test was run concurrently with this campaign.

Provenance: pinned OpenCode **1.18.34**, model
**openrouter/deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash-0731**, default reasoning in
both variants, empty synthetic workspaces and isolated probe homes.

`7f0c2b7f586cb753408351574b2239e22311944add99af4f6f3562cd6d47bbcb`. This
holds the rebuilt runner and static UI constant. Provider-reported
measured turn cost **$0.00120649**; verification probes are additional.
Including the earlier interrupted retry, this follow-up reports
**$0.00289389** in measured turn usage; missing usage is not assumed
free. Prior cohorts remain separate below.

Validation on `c30451e0e`: **59 focused tests passed**, runner
TypeScript check passed, **6/6 real credential-free pinned OpenCode
launches passed**, fresh Greptile **5/5 with zero unresolved threads**.
CI: **51 success, 4 skipped, 1 failed**. The failed native compilation
job never reached compilation: Docker's auth endpoint timed out during
Buildx setup, then failed the same way on one retry
([job](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37994181674/job/114039737503)).
Full local checks were not rerun while measuring. The PR remains draft:
the launch defect is reproduced and fixed, but cold session startup
still exceeds the controller's admission budget on this host. Raising
that budget would not establish a faster first response.
<!-- launch-fixed-proof:end -->

### Readiness investigation and live rerun — 2026-10-09

**Measured queue fix; no reliable end-to-end speedup claim. Keep this PR
in draft.** Accepted chats could wait for the periodic queue sweep after
verification had already committed `ready`. The lifecycle worker now
dispatches through the existing scheduler immediately after that commit.
The normal company, pause, budget, concurrency, and task-ownership
checks still apply. Dispatch failure preserves readiness and leaves
recovery to the queue sweep.

Native OpenCode verification also avoids enumerating the full model
catalog before running its real hello request. Identifier validation
remains. Authentication failures, unavailable models, and timeouts still
prevent readiness. An unspecified local probe directory uses an empty
temporary directory.

**Queue-only experiment:** four before and four after attempts, in
before/after/after/before server phases, two fresh agents per phase.
Median observed ready-to-start delay fell from **19.429 s to 0.058 s**.
State polling was nominally 250 ms plus HTTP time, so the latter means
within observation resolution; it is not a precise 58 ms latency claim.
After timings were 100.20, 65.29, 63.78, and 76.97 seconds. Before had
one 59.65-second success and three 120-second response timeouts (one
provider health SIGKILL, one late success, one still running after
settlement and canceled). These censored results do not support a
success-only median speedup comparison. Focused tests overlapped the
last baseline phase, which further limits total-time interpretation.
Reported measured-turn cost: $0.0055383; verification probes and
incomplete/canceled usage are additional.

**Final matched experiment:** built static UI in both variants to avoid
pre-Send Vite compilation; current proxy, release runner, selected
model, default reasoning, and explicitly isolated empty probe
cwd/HOME/XDG held constant. Both worker handoff and model-probe changes
vary. Fresh browser/company/agent/chat per attempt. ABBA order, two
attempts per variant, 180-second response limit declared before the
batch, four-turn bound. Same Send-to-rendered-Hi metric as the earlier
experiment.

| Order | Variant | Send → visible Hi | Created → execution | Observed
ready → execution | Outcome |
| --- | --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | --- |
| 1 | Before | 62.66 s | 23.467 s | 2.830 s | Succeeded |
| 2 | After | >180 s | 14.200 s | Within polling resolution | Provider
health SIGKILL |
| 3 | After | >180 s | 13.877 s | Within polling resolution | Provider
initialization timeout |
| 4 | Before | >180 s | 144.256 s | 14.067 s | Still running after
settlement; canceled |

Only one of four attempts produced a timed reply. **There is no valid
overall speedup estimate from this batch.** The dispatch delay is
removed, but provider startup failures and heavy shared-host load
remain. A recorded host sample was load 93.55 on 18 logical CPUs. This
is a confound, not proof that every failure was caused by host load.
Provider-reported measured-turn cost was $0.00032752, with no reported
usage for the other three attempts; verification probes are additional.

Retained earlier setup attempts: one shared-memory startup failure
before model calls, and a separate development-UI batch with a
60.06-second baseline followed by a navigation timeout before Send.
These attempts are retained separately, not counted as successful
response timings. No live attempts were silently dropped.

Provenance: source base `53580f8fbd40b963f3fb7ba5172ff3ede2e9ef1f`,
measured patch committed as `40b54eafb`, then rebased as
`c590770dcc2bb1debce14037935a7031e5c3c1ac`. **These live timings predate
the rebase.** Source and binary hashes are retained below. The inner
harness label `after` selects the identical current proxy in every
attempt; the outer campaign handoff label is the actual before/after
variant. Owned benchmark processes stopped and original proxy restored.

<!-- readiness-check-status:start -->
Post-rebase validation at `c590770dcc2bb1debce14037935a7031e5c3c1ac`:

- Full local `pnpm -r typecheck`: **passed**, including the native
release build (1,098.6 seconds on the loaded host).
- Focused lifecycle and adapter tests: **26 passed**. The 14 database
integration tests did not run locally because their hard-coded 20-second
database setup hook timed out. A retry with a CLI timeout override
encountered the same explicit hook limit. The earlier pre-rebase focused
batch passed 77 tests; these results are not substituted for post-rebase
execution.
- Local `pnpm test:run` was started, then stopped to avoid duplicating
CI on the saturated host. Local `pnpm build` was not run separately.
**Current-head CI passed Typecheck + Release Registry, Build, all
general and serialized test groups, Rust checks, both runner Vitest
groups, and all eight browser E2E shards.** The last general shard
passed 1,179 tests (72 files).
- Fresh [Greptile
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/15708#issuecomment-6085742217):
**5/5**, reviewed this exact head, no actionable defect.
- Final CI rollup: **49 success, 4 skipped, 4 failure**. The failures
are [Compile isolated native
Runner](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37990274515/job/114024329242),
[Docker context
integrity](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37990274623/job/114024196511),
[Canary Dry
Run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37990274623/job/114024196424),
and the dependent `ci / verify` aggregate. All three root failures are
Docker Hub HTTP 429 / unauthenticated pull-rate limits while fetching
Node base images. The native-image job was retried once and hit the same
limit. No source compiler/test failure was reported by those gates. CI
maintainers need authenticated pulls or to rerun after the registry
limit clears.
- Owned benchmark servers stopped. Local validation commands completed
or were stopped. The PR remains a draft: user-visible speed/reliability
is not qualified, and the Docker-dependent CI gates are not green.

### Matched live browser latency evidence — 2026-10-09

**Conclusion: the overall first-response speedup is not established.**
Twelve successful real browser runs produced a lower after median, but
the updated path won only 3 of 6 adjacent pairs. Median paired
improvement was -0.17 seconds (effectively tied). Do not treat the
deterministic streaming-forwarding improvement as proof that this PR
fixes end-to-end first-response latency.

- **Actual path:** local Paperclip browser → real server/database →
current optimized Rust runner → pinned OpenCode 1.18.34 → OpenRouter
`deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash-0731`. Default reasoning in both variants;
no disabled-reasoning override.
- **Prompt:** `Reply with Hi and an emoji and nothing else.` Fresh
company, agent, chat, and per-turn native provider process for each
trial; same QA fixture instructions and selected model.
- **Comparison:** current product/runner at
`53580f8fbd40b963f3fb7ba5172ff3ede2e9ef1f` held constant. The baseline
substitutes the exact `opencode-app-server-proxy.ts`,
`opencode-proxy-task-envelope.ts`, and `opencode-server-driver.ts`
contents from pre-PR `41fec8c8921f9fb19c13fe11e2c9b71bf1017317`. This
isolates those changed modules; it is not an entire old-checkout
comparison.
- **Metric:** browser capture-phase Send click to a rendered `Hi`
markdown answer plus two animation frames, with a screenshot of the
answer. Thinking, tool labels, and status indicators do not count. This
is a DOM/render measurement, not instrumented compositor pixel timing.
- **Order/bound:** predeclared `before, after, after, before` repeated
three times; six trials per variant; 120-second response timeout; $1
campaign guard. All 12 measured trials returned `Hi` and an emoji and
finished successfully; none omitted.
- **Result:** before median **48.08 s** (37.42–66.40); after median
**42.50 s** (27.68–63.32). The 11.6% lower median alone is not
persuasive evidence of a reliable improvement given the mixed paired
results and broad overlap.
- **Remaining delay:** retained queue timestamps for 10/12 trials show
**9.76–41.65 seconds from run creation to execution start**. This is
before the OpenCode path changed here. Its cause is not established by
this benchmark. The final two queue reads were unavailable after
automatic server shutdown; all twelve primary browser timings were
retained.
- **Cost:** $0.010517369 provider-reported across the 12 measured turns;
$0.011371499 including the successful setup pilot. This is separate from
the older diagnostics listed below.
- **Retained setup attempts:** two failures before Send (composer
locator and transpiler helper); one baseline startup failure before any
observed model request (`SIGKILL` while probing OpenCode health); one
successful current-code pilot whose selector missed the visible reply.
These are retained separately, not silently included/excluded as valid
timings. The measured batch used the corrected selector and the same
release binary for both variants.
- **Limits:** local development server and headless Chromium on macOS
arm64, small sample, variable queue timing/provider routing/cache. This
does not qualify production/cloud performance or isolate the
contributions of each changed module. Server, browser, and owned runs
were stopped; original proxy build artifact restored; no product source
files changed for this experiment.

</details>

- Latest options-struct refactor: 33 provider tests and 86 backend tests
passed. Four port-dependent fixtures initially failed inside the sandbox
and passed with loopback access. Latest check snapshot: 51 successes, 4
skips, and 2 failures (`ci / e2e` and `ci / e2e shard (5/8)`). This
latency experiment does not make the PR merge-ready.

- Focused TypeScript suites passed: OpenCode driver, per-turn reasoning,
prepared-context recovery, proxy envelope, live sessions, Codex context
control, and native instruction measurements. The real runnerd/proxy
integration test confirms disabled followed by default in the same
session. A stale staged binary initially hid the new parameter;
rebuilding the release runner resolved it.
- Capability-guard regression suites passed all 53 tests; the real
runner/proxy boundary still accepts the per-turn selection. Both
OpenRouter and non-OpenRouter real runner/proxy cases passed, along with
62 existing OpenCode fixture tests. Runner TypeScript build passed after
the final correction.
- Affected Rust modules passed: 33 provider tests and 86 durable backend
tests. Malformed or unsupported reasoning selections do not dispatch a
provider turn or poison admission state.
- Pinned OpenCode 1.18.34 with a local OpenRouter-compatible fixture
sent three successive provider requests with reasoning omitted,
`enabled: false`, then omitted. Each request contained one copy of the
agent instructions. No paid provider call was needed.
- The reconstructed first-turn task envelope shrank from 4,356 to 460
characters. This is a payload-size measurement, not a claimed token or
latency reduction. Existing stored conversation history is not
rewritten.
- Prior head `8c07fe2e70267a7c8a3118f1071eca73ecdc6c8a`: all 53 checks
passed, with four intentional skips. Greptile is 5/5 with no open
findings. One bounded retry cleared first-test timeouts, a legacy
signoff lease failure, and CI runner shutdowns. The timed-out suites
also passed locally (14 auth-signal tests, 40 device-login tests, and
the runner resume case).
- Known reported diagnostic usage totals about $0.0029. Two prematurely
closed baseline warm-turn attempts are excluded from latency comparisons
and their usage is not fully captured; background provider usage is also
not fully accounted. No further paid runs are active.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed. Runner TypeScript typechecks and build
also passed after the review correction.
- `pnpm test:run`: attempted and stopped after a reproducible failure in
the untouched Codex recovery test `archives a damaged prior epoch before
completing guarded same-task replacement with real runnerd`
(`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-session-resume.test.ts:1072`).
It returns `needs_review` / failed instead of done / succeeded,
including when rerun alone. The broad local suite is not green. The two
initial collection failures disappeared after building; their isolated
rerun passed all 1,565 tests.
- `pnpm build`: passed.
- Pinned real OpenCode plus a delayed local provider: first native delta
to Paperclip delta fell from 1,496 ms to less than 1 ms at millisecond
measurement resolution. This isolates forwarding delay, not
network/model inference.
- Two live driver samples after the patch reached first text in
2.28–2.62 seconds including session startup. Baseline first responses
took 12.37–13.43 seconds. Small unmatched samples had different
reasoning/cache outcomes, so these are observations, not an attributed
speedup ratio.
- Full compiled runnerd protocol diagnostic: completed with `Hi 👋`;
first assistant delta at 9.19 seconds and cleanup complete at 9.44
seconds. The seeded mock-control-plane harness used 27,512 input tokens
across two provider requests, split into 13,521 and 13,991. The extra
`answer_status_question` call posted `Hi 👋` to the mock task in 12 ms,
then caused another model request. A reconstruction contains 25 tools
(35.3k JSON characters), 12.8k system characters, and a 4.4k task
envelope; 3.9k instruction characters appear in both system and task
context. Provider-reported cost was $0.00073976; the pricing-table
estimate was $0.00395332. This is one integration diagnostic, not a
production latency claim.
- A separate full-runner sample with existing lazy tool discovery also
completed, but took 14.64 seconds through cleanup and called
`paperclip_finish`. Its usage ledger recorded 12,888 input and 11,776
cached-input tokens, with $0.00096344 provider-reported cost. This did
not establish a latency improvement, so the default tool exposure was
not changed.
- Four direct OpenRouter requests separately measured default reasoning
at 2.45/3.90 seconds to first text and disabled reasoning at 0.66/0.53
seconds. Default reasoning remains unchanged; disabling it requires the
explicit per-turn option.

## Risks

- Immediate readiness dispatch changes scheduling timing. It uses
existing admission checks and preserves the periodic sweep as recovery.
- Native model verification relies on the real request rather than
catalog enumeration. The final live batch had provider startup failures;
overall speed and reliability are not qualified.
- Incremental chunks without IDs cannot safely be deduplicated by
content. Repeated identical chunks are valid. Known-ID duplicates remain
suppressed.
- OpenCode uses its bundled model catalog plus the explicit
selected-model entry. New remote catalog metadata will not refresh
during isolated startup.
- Default provider plugins are disabled. This runner supplies
credentials and assigned MCP tools through its own controlled
configuration.
- Disabled reasoning is supported only on the OpenCode/OpenRouter path
and requires a compatible model. It applies to one turn and is not an
automatic latency policy.
- The matched live browser sample is small and does not establish a
reliable end-to-end improvement. It includes local queueing/startup and
browser rendering, but does not qualify production or remote sandbox
latency.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 (Codex). Tool use, code editing, and command execution were
used. The session does not expose a more specific model ID or
context-window size. Live diagnostic target: DeepSeek
`deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash-0731` through OpenRouter and OpenCode
1.18.34.

DottaandPaperclip 57e977be72 feat: integrate Pi 1.0 into the experimental Runner (#14921)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - The experimental Runner owns provider processes and durable
sessions.
> - Pi needs working task execution and human controls.
> - The five-PR stack must preserve changes already on master.
> - Each layer now carries the complete integrated source for a safe
sequential fallback.
> - This PR belongs to native GitHub stack #15602, ending at #14956.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14436, #14631, #14743 and #14956.

Ship Pi 1.0 through the experimental Paperclip Runner. The five PRs are
#14921, #14922, #14923, #14924 and #14956. The user authorized the
complete merge after checks pass. Existing `pi_local` execution is
unchanged. Accounting and wider provider/platform qualification remain
deferred.

## What Changed

- Recover missing final replies after workspace finalization changes
owners, using accepted-turn evidence without rerunning work or granting
external-chat publication.
- Preserve the admitted Pi instruction root across warm runs, while
retaining changed-root rejection.
- Give Pi a bounded 15-second default shutdown grace so stop, drain
acknowledgement and durable suspension can complete. Explicit deadlines
and other providers retain their existing behavior.
- Integrate the Pi 1.0 runtime and master contracts.
- Use Pi profile 22. Preserve explicit caller-selected models and exact
native thinking levels. Keep Pi's wrapper, helper, extension and
question/control behavior unchanged from the qualified profile-19
runtime.
- Preserve master's Dot lifecycle and consent fields, configured task
environment, status guards and current Codex/Claude dependency versions.
Cursor stays qualified. Copilot stays pending; profile 17 binds the
changed shared protocol validation sources.
- Exclude general AWS IAM credentials from Pi static/custom provider
bindings and selected task projections; preserve the provider-scoped
Bedrock bearer key. Profile 21 is retained as historical provenance.
Rust and cloud install probes use the current declaration.
- Patch bundled brace-expansion 5.0.9 to the exact official 5.0.12
payload. Pin the patch and complete runtime closures. Include the patch
in normal installed setup tooling. Keep the upstream Pi shrinkwrap as
provenance and permit only this exact security correction.
- Include current attestation files in the Docker build context. Keep
the repository lockfile unchanged from master. CI and private image
builds resolve manifest changes before their frozen installation.

## Verification

- Full local `pnpm -r typecheck` passes, including Runner Rust, server
and UI. Focused integration checks pass: 194 Runner
admission/environment tests, 63 profile/credential tests with one
expected skip, 152 Dot/UI configuration tests, and Pi transcript/notice
tests.
- Full local `pnpm build` passes on the final source.
- Fresh final-source checks pass: all 698 Rust workspace tests (32
binaries), 156 credential/profile/controller tests with one expected
skip, Runner TypeScript typecheck, and 20 package/setup/sandbox tests.
- The profile-21 Pi materializer passes on the native host with the
official pinned Node 24.21.0 and its npm. It verifies all 150 locked
packages, the patched dependency and the exact closure. Setup/package
bundle tests and UI token gates pass.
- The old hashes were reproduced for all three supported targets before
calculating the patched graph. New closure hashes are darwin-arm64
`282022db10150c6632b3444df421342e7d534bdf5d5fb1097a2e79d0625a2bcf`,
darwin-x64
`64e251e19009f755c0b04f73ce2138246faab71a961b0f13d75ebfcc34bef12e`, and
linux-x64
`713b1fdff42fb56a1518bdc084f181d70bee8ebadc3e4b1d76321ed9108c8410`.
Independent native platform execution is separate from graph identity
reproduction.
- Historical cloud qualification remains unchanged: all seven core cases
pass on shipping source `10dc43c9ec65d88c2f782d62afb296d09494f215`,
harness `1a4408a48cfb5a1f094a311141c257c92cd7a893`, image
`sha256:5b3a775b383591bda1b0c1889e509acc70ce7f37c53f09733c81d59037f02280`,
and accepted Sonnet 4.6/low fixture. All 215 canonical files and all
seven cleanup checks pass independent verification. These are profile-19
results and are not relabeled as fresh profile-22 runs.
- Current Pi digest:
`sha256:e92078bee3c23bec4100aa589013a44613d054cd686826534025d8019e9f39a9`.
[The readiness
plan](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/codex/pi-production-readiness/doc/plans/2026-10-02-pi-production-readiness.md)
preserves campaign and failed-attempt provenance.
- Merge only after every PR's current-head CI and fresh review pass.
Linux CI covers the full suites, build and browser tests. The local
embedded Postgres API-authority suite cannot start on this macOS/Node 26
host, so Linux CI must confirm that suite.

### Fresh profile-22 core qualification — 2026-10-08

All seven accepted core cases pass canonically on Pi profile 22, with
`openrouter/anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6` and native-confirmed low
thinking. This model is a fixture; production accepts the caller's
explicit Pi provider/model.

Runtime/install source: `3241a992f2a7703e59e97ed0fd3e5d6405de4401`.
Frozen accepted harness: `1a4408a48cfb5a1f094a311141c257c92cd7a893`.
Immutable cloud image:
`ghcr.io/paperclipai/paperclip-daytona-runner@sha256:506f22db7edd78f37c0c40bec1cc084af1850455026dbf467194bfbb8fcef141`.
Pi digest:
`sha256:e92078bee3c23bec4100aa589013a44613d054cd686826534025d8019e9f39a9`.

[Hosted Linux image and clean-install
verification](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37868328023)
passes, including all 20 source-bound archives, normal CLI/Pi setup,
companion import and the production pack reader. This exact installation
source includes the latest master integration and the corrected Pi warm
instruction-root fence. Full local typecheck/build and current-head
hosted CI verify the final stack. All 13 focused real-root regressions
pass. The full local executor suite passed 662 tests; 15 database tests
could not start the Mac embedded PostgreSQL service. Hosted Linux CI
passes the full required verification and E2E checks. These fresh
results keep their own source identity; profile-19 results remain
historical.

All 215 canonical files (28714587 bytes) are independently
hash-verified. All seven cleanup grades pass, with no owned runtime
process or temporary root after each case. Automatic retries are zero.
The owned cloud host stopped normally after retention. The prior
profile-22 warm attempt remains failed and separately retained: archive
SHA-256
`1e54eba5ec72b50cee1534b23d1d1d4f21a090006b8a64501ba70db972abfde5`. Its
original canonical classification is preserved. Diagnosis reproduced a
product bug comparing an agent-files root against an unset
checkpoint-only field. The fix stores the admitted physical root
separately from the adopted per-run collection capability. The real-root
regression fails before the fix and passes afterward, including
rejection of a changed physical root. Fixture, grader, model and all
seven accepted case IDs are unchanged; this fresh campaign tests
final-reply publication after file registration first. The intermediate
restart attempt also remains failed and retained: archive SHA-256
`5dcaefdf1d17cf4cd54fd4cf810f45e736667392339b8ce7caf08bb4e225277f`. Its
original canonical classification is preserved. Pi resumed, wrote the
verified answer and completed its task; exact runner suspension was
proven, but idle stop consumed about 5.2s and left under 3s for the
drain acknowledgement. The Pi-only default shutdown grace is now 15s,
preserving a full 5s drain round trip and a finite suspension reserve.
Explicit caller deadlines, other provider defaults, literal drain
receipts and exact suspension identity checks remain unchanged. The
timing regression fails before this correction and passes afterward; all
18 focused settlement tests and Runner typecheck pass. The final-source
file attempt is also preserved as failed (`candidate_failure`), archive
SHA-256
`db6767b6773ea618997927ac77bdb005a5ac81492c7b9c0ffbc900449f829bc9`.
Native edit, validation, exact downloadable artifact and Done/succeeded
all passed, and the exact final reply was durably recorded. A workspace
recovery owner completed before the live heartbeat reached presentation,
leaving that reply absent from task chat. Recovery now materializes only
a completed final reply from the accepted turn of an ordinary internal
Done task, preserving issue/run/contract binding, suppression,
external-chat authorization and same-run deduplication. The database
regression covers the generated file-preparation receipt, suppression,
unapproved external continuation and replay. Server typecheck and all 49
response-selection tests pass; hosted Linux verifies the database
regression because embedded PostgreSQL cannot start on this Mac.

The delayed-final-answer database regression passes on [the final
root-source Linux server
shard](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37868262553/job/113628594152),
alongside 1,108 passing tests. The first root Runner shard had one
unchanged durable-resume test exceed its 5-second timeout; the identical
top-source shard and the isolated exact test passed. One rerun of that
failed job and its required aggregate passed without source or test
changes. The original failed job log and the single-rerun receipt remain
retained.

### October 9 merge verification

Current merge head: `5a8fe63512a7166aaef5cf50065a25008aa8b44b`. All
current-head checks pass, including `ci / verify` and `ci / e2e`;
exact-head Greptile review is 5/5 with no unresolved threads. Current
master conflicts are resolved. The user authorized the maintainer
override of the code-owner review gate after these checks. The seven
retained live core cases remain bound to source
`3241a992f2a7703e59e97ed0fd3e5d6405de4401` and its recorded cloud image.

## Risks

- The security correction changes the dependency closure and profile
identity. Old sessions must reopen on the new profile. Exact identities
and credential bindings fail closed.
- The runner remains experimental and requires explicit selection.
Legacy Pi Local is unchanged. Caller model IDs pass through; the E2E
model is a fixture.
- Accounting and the broad platform/provider matrix remain deferred.
This merge does not publish a release or deploy a service.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex assisted with reasoning, repository
inspection, editing and tool use. The exact serving ID and context
window are not exposed in this session. Final live qualification uses Pi
1.0.0 with `openrouter/anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6` and native-confirmed
low thinking.

DottaandPaperclip 7bc03e0acd feat(runner): default harnesses to full auto and support task reassignment (#13686)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets people manage AI agents and their work.
> - Agent Chat uses native runners to save plans and coordinate tasks.
> - Provider defaults differed across harnesses and could stop
unattended work at a second permission gate.
> - Agents also lacked a dedicated tool to move existing work to another
agent safely.
> - This change defaults native providers to full automatic permission
for provider tools and connected tools.
> - A guarded reassignment tool preserves task identity, stops the
previous run, and schedules the new owner once.
> - Codex and Claude chat acceptance tests now use production permission
defaults.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Native runner, ACPX Claude permission policy, task authority, and Agent
Chat acceptance tests.

**Problem or motivation**

A user can authorize an agent to save a plan or create a task, but
Claude's default provider gate can still stop that action. Reassignment
needs a dedicated operation that preserves context and avoids concurrent
owners or unintended recovery runs.

**Proposed solution**

Default Claude/ACPX to `approve-all`, OpenCode to `allow`, and Codex to
`never`. Apply the defaults at configuration, execution, fresh-session,
resume, driver, and proxy boundaries. Keep explicit permission settings
and server-side company, claim, task-mode, and approval checks. Add
`reassign_task` with version checks, durable idempotency, audited
cancellation, and guarded successor scheduling.

**Alternatives considered**

A Paperclip-only allowlist still blocks provider tools and other
connections during unattended work. Full automatic permission is the
requested product default. Recreating a task discards its identity and
history. Updating assignment without stopping the previous run can leave
two agents working on the same task.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the existing planning, delegated work, governed tool
access, and recovery features. It adds no new service or schema
migration. Recent related tasks and open PRs were checked for duplicate
work.

**Additional context**

Related: #13678 (Agent Chat tools and recovery), #13677 (remote runner
startup). The stacked legacy-adapter companion is #13693. This also
fixes the deployed-server artifact fallback needed to stage the current
runner binary.

## What Changed

- Default Claude/ACPX to `approve-all`, OpenCode to `allow`, and Codex
to `never`, including missing settings at direct driver and proxy entry
points. These defaults cover provider tools and connected tools.
Preserve explicitly configured restrictive modes.
- Include assigned approval reads using canonical side-effect
classifications, so verifying a recorded approval does not trigger
another provider gate. Paperclip approval decisions still enforce
controller authority.
- Carry the new permission mode through server configuration, execution
contracts, recovery identity, TypeScript, and Rust. Keep
`approve-paperclip` as an optional restricted mode, with exact SDK rules
and closed unknown requests. It is not a default.
- Add `reassign_task` to the semantic catalog, controller, mock
authority, and generated contracts.
- Guard reassignment with company authorization, expected owner and
version, protected-state checks, and durable retry receipts.
- Honor explicit backlog task creation atomically with the initial plan,
without scheduling a wake. Preserve backlog holds regardless of
dependency readiness.
- Stop active work before changing ownership. Restore the prior owner
through a guarded, idempotent wake if final handoff validation fails.
Keep intentional reassignment stops out of failure recovery. Preserve
backlog and blocked states without waking them early.
- Add authorization, concurrency, replay, stop, and permission boundary
regressions. Add Codex and Claude chat reassignment cases and run native
chat cases with production defaults.
- Clarify shared runner guidance: save plans and Paperclip documents
directly with `write_document`; create and register a local file only
when a downloadable file is requested.
- Document provider defaults and the operator choices for existing
agents.

## Verification

- Current head `d82fbb0f03546d27cecf072250e4172e0b1ee662`: **55 checks
passed**, with two intentional skips. [PR
checks](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/13686/checks).
- Greptile reviewed that exact head at **5/5**. The security reviewer
acknowledged the intended full-auto default, and the acknowledged
discussions are resolved.
- Full workspace `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed locally
after rebasing onto current master. Targeted adapter/server, runner,
API, default/resume, and heartbeat configuration tests passed.
- **All six real-provider acceptance cases passed on their first
attempt, with cleanup passing:** plan handoff, task reassignment, and
backlog creation/status, each on native Claude and Codex. Evidence
records Claude's effective `approve-all` mode. [Campaign and
downloadable
evidence](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/35469926548).
- The live campaign tested combined revision
`a37881c824dcd7170380fc4b788732fc743e5da7`. The final PR heads add only
a heartbeat test expectation correction; application code is unchanged
from that live-tested revision.
- The campaign's result-enforcement job passed. Its separate report
publisher failed because the trusted workflow's `patchedDependencies`
configuration differs from its frozen lockfile. All six results and
screenshots remain available as GitHub artifacts. The overall manual
workflow is red for this publishing failure.
- Full-suite coverage is supplied by the passing CI partitions. The
separate unsharded local run was stopped after the corresponding CI
partitions passed; it is not counted as a completed local run.
- Reassignment tests cover stale state, cross-company access, denied
authority, cancellation failure, compensating wake, and idempotent
retries. Backlog tests verify the original creation audit, saved plan,
exact task count, and absence of task-bound runs.

## Risks

- Agents with no explicit permission mode now receive full provider tool
permission, including connected tools. This is a deliberate broad
default. Existing explicit restrictive modes still apply. Controller
authorization, company isolation, workspace boundaries, and Paperclip
governance remain in force.
- Reassignment crosses run cancellation and task ownership transactions.
Durable stop intent, revalidation, audit receipts, and guarded queue
dispatch cover interruptions and retries.
- The new permission enum requires a current runner artifact. The remote
artifact fallback uses the same resolved controller binary for upload
and execution.
- Live provider behavior remains subject to the selected model. Targeted
live results do not qualify the full catalog.

## Model Used

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

Dotta 131f5c4065 feat(runner): add administration and observability (#12641)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Administrators need bounded controls for experimental native
execution.
> - The lower stack adds remote Codex execution and the task workspace.
> - Operators need to configure Codex safely and inspect provider
traces.
> - Unsupported providers must not appear as runnable choices.
> - This pull request adds Codex-only administration and observability.
> - The benefit is a default-off operational surface for production
diagnosis.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #12640.
Refs #12616.
Refs #12352.

**Subsystem affected**

Agent configuration, instance experimental settings, run ledger,
provider trace inspector, and administrator actions.

**Problem or motivation**

The native runner lacks one safe operator surface for Codex permissions,
lifecycle, raw trace capture, and run inspection. The integration branch
also contains provider choices that the production backend cannot
execute yet.

**Proposed solution**

Expose only the qualified Codex controls. Keep Paperclip Developer Mode
and runner preview ingress off by default. Gate raw trace actions by
administrator access and existing trace authorization.

**Alternatives considered**

Exposing unfinished providers would create configurations that fail at
runtime. Always-on tracing would increase sensitive data and storage
risk.

**Roadmap alignment**

This work supports governed Cloud and Sandbox agents and production
diagnostics.

## Stack

- Base PR: #12640.
- Lower PRs: #12639 and #12638.
- This PR contains only its 54-file administration and observability
delta.
- This is the final feature PR in the Codex production stack.

## What Changed

- Added Codex-only Paperclip Runner permission and lifecycle controls.
- Added bounded warm idle configuration.
- Kept the provider field fixed to Codex.
- Added administrator-only one-run raw trace requests.
- Added a persistent future-run raw trace toggle.
- Added trace status, metadata, ledger, and canonical runner inspection.
- Added JSON-RPC request-origin grouping and finalization lineage.
- Restored the stateful PRP transcript parser and focused projection
tests required by trace inspection.
- Added default-off Paperclip Developer Mode.
- Added Honeycomb run links for authorized developer mode.
- Disabled the legacy operational skill for `paperclip_runner`.
- Did not expose OpenCode, ACPX, Pi, Claude Managed, or AWS runner
choices.
- Did not change migrations, workflows, dependencies, or
`pnpm-lock.yaml`.

## Verification

- GitHub Actions will run UI tests, server tests, repository typecheck,
build, browser tests, security, and policy gates.
- Tests cover Codex configuration defaults and bounds, administrator
trace actions, persistent settings, ledger inspection, trace lineage,
and Honeycomb links.
- Existing server trace authorization and retention tests remain the
backend authority.
- Local tests were not run. The requested verification policy uses
GitHub Actions for this series.
- `git diff --check runner/task-workspace-experience...HEAD` passes.
- The delta contains 54 files.

## Risks

- Raw provider traces can contain sensitive provider data.
- Existing server authorization controls access, reveal, download,
retention, and deletion.
- The UI gates trace actions by administrator access and developer mode.
- All new instance settings remain off by default.
- Fresh Paperclip Runner configuration remains Codex-only.
- Direct adapters and legacy task behavior do not change in this PR.

> For core feature work, check [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md) first and
discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. Feature PRs that overlap
with planned core work may need to be redirected — check the roadmap
first. See `CONTRIBUTING.md`.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex with GPT-5.6. The work used high-reasoning agent mode,
repository tools, GitHub tools, and parallel code-audit agents.

Dotta 06f8773097 feat(runner): add Codex session driver (#12371)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The package now has bounded Codex transport, security, question,
diff, value, and thread helpers
> - Those isolated boundaries can now be composed into one provider
session lifecycle
> - The driver must preserve controller-owned identity, results,
terminals, and recovery invariants
> - Unsupported or mismatched provider traffic must fail closed without
weakening legacy adapters
> - This pull request adds only the Codex app-server driver and its
package-local tests
> - It does not expose or enable the Paperclip Runner adapter

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

`packages/paperclip-runner` Codex app-server session driver.

**Problem or motivation**

The runner needs a production-shaped Codex session implementation that
turns provider facts into canonical PRP events while keeping task
identity, semantic completion, runtime input, and recovery under
controller authority.

**Proposed solution**

Compose the previously reviewed transport and normalization boundaries
into a Codex-only harness driver with session open/resume, turns,
streaming events, semantic tools, structured questions, goals, lineage,
usage, cancellation, reconciliation, and deterministic persisted
snapshots.

**Alternatives considered**

Keeping the full implementation in one initial transport pull request
would obscure the trust boundaries. Adding the deferred ACPX or OpenCode
paths here would also broaden the provider scope beyond the Codex-first
series.

**Roadmap alignment**

This implements the Codex provider slice inside the package. It does not
enable the runner adapter or change any existing direct adapter path.

## What Changed

- Added the Codex app-server harness driver and session lifecycle.
- Added controller-bound semantic completion and terminal handling.
- Added runtime requests, structured questions, goals, lineage, usage,
steering, interruption, and recovery.
- Added workspace diff and file-reference projection.
- Connected bounded/redacted provider data and notification identity
checks.
- Kept deferred provider identities and replacement behavior out of the
Codex-only driver.
- Added 62 focused driver cases covering lifecycle, security, recovery,
and protocol failures.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner test:typescript` (34
files, 337 tests)
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm build`
- The focused Codex driver suite has 62 passing cases.

## Risks

The main risks are accepting provider events from the wrong session,
duplicating terminal facts, retaining unsafe provider data, or resuming
a different session. Tests cover pre-turn, cross-thread, stale-turn,
post-terminal, duplicate-result, cancellation, transport loss, provider
identity, workspace, redaction, structured input, and recovery cases.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex with GPT-5.6 and repository tool use.
