DottaandPaperclip 5d8d9bf83e fix: share native lifecycle policy with instruction checkpoints (#19230)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Warm native Codex turns save registered agent files at each turn
boundary.
> - Native execution can inherit warm mode from the agent when the
environment has no explicit policy.
> - File preparation checked only the environment policy and could miss
that inheritance.
> - The new copy then had no warm checkpoint callback, even though the
native session stayed warm.
> - This pull request resolves one admitted policy before both owners
use it.
> - The benefit is a terminal file checkpoint under the selected
lifecycle, with the existing ownership and permission fences.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14735 and #19225. The first defines warm file checkpoints. The
second retains coordinator ownership while cleanup joins. This change
fixes the earlier lifecycle selection mismatch.

**What happened?**

With no explicit environment policy and an agent warm default, native
selection chose warm mode with a 900,000 ms idle window. Actual file
preparation registered an agent_files copy without its warm flag or
checkpoint callback. An unchanged turn could have no save marker. Later
retirement of a retained lease could reach the stopped-file retrieval
guard and preserve pending collection debt.

**Expected behavior**

File preparation and native execution use the same admitted lifecycle
policy. Warm native Codex copies receive their terminal checkpoint
callback. Explicit per-turn overrides and pinned admissions keep their
existing precedence. A pending historical copy does not become saved
because policy resolution changed.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Configure a native Codex agent with a warm default and a reusable
sandbox without an explicit runner lifecycle policy.
2. Prepare its managed agent-file copy through the normal instruction
owner.
3. Select native execution through the normal runtime owner.
4. Compare the selected warm policy with the copy's missing warm flag
and checkpoint callback.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Base: `3a090b815b`. The owning policy code also exists on its parent
revision.

**Deployment mode**

Native Codex with registered agent files and a reusable sandbox that
inherits its lifecycle policy.

## What Changed

- Move the existing lifecycle precedence and backend gates into a narrow
shared resolver.
- Resolve one value before instruction preparation and pass it into
runtime selection.
- Select warm file ownership from that value and the existing file
capability gate.
- Add real-Postgres unchanged and changed terminal checkpoint cases,
policy precedence cases and updated preparation coverage.
- Exercise the same resolve, timed preparation and runtime-selection
orchestration used by heartbeat; preserve preparation error identity and
skip selection on preparation failure.
- Document new-admission overrides and pinned-policy behavior.

## Verification

- Red: actual preparation and runtime-selection producers disagree. The
selected native mode is warm, but the real persisted copy has no warm
flag. The fixture uses real PostgreSQL, managed-root authorization and a
synthetic loopback transport.
- Green: 85 owner tests pass. They include actual unchanged and changed
terminal checkpoints plus 19 lifecycle hierarchy/capability cases.
Changed synthetic bytes reach canonical storage with a saved receipt;
unchanged bytes record unchanged.
- Safety: 25 existing warm retirement and
stopped/destroyed/foreign-owner cases pass. Six authorization,
stale-adoption and adopted-owner preservation cases pass. The lease
guard and native executor are unchanged.
- Workspace typecheck, build and map checks pass. The final candidate's
code and test blobs equal the tested source; its exact build stamp is
recorded locally.
- No new repository-wide local run was repeated. A separate earlier
broad command on an older head failed a reproducible GitHub enrollment
fixture; it is not a full local pass, established flake or proven caused
by this change. Fresh full hosted CI is green on the reviewed final
head; both current-head Greptile and native substantive reviews are 5/5
with no actionable findings.
- Review regression: removing actual policy propagation to preparation
in the shared production orchestration fails both real-Postgres cases
while runtime selection still chooses warm mode. Restoring it passes.
These cases invoke the production helper used by heartbeat, not the
entire outer heartbeat service.
- The provider-facing transport is a local loopback fixture. No model
turn, actual remote platform, physical stop receipt or deployed recovery
is proved by these tests.

## Risks

- New Codex copies that inherit agent warm mode now use the existing
terminal checkpoint path. This can add the expected file checkpoint
where only an unchanged probe ran before.
- The resolver preserves explicit environment per-turn overrides, pinned
admissions and backend/credential gates. It does not create a timer,
provider retry or new permission.
- Existing pending copies remain pending. This change does not authorize
retrieval from stopped or replaced leases and does not establish
recovery of historical files.
- No database migration, public API field, agent setting, provider
change or manual rollout is included.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, `gpt-6.1-sol`, with reasoning, source inspection and local
code execution. Context window and reasoning effort are host-managed.

Devin FoleyandClaude Opus 5.5 7edbc1fc07 fix(server): keep a successor's issue lock when a finalizing native run releases its checkout (#19156)
`release_checkout` now clears `checkoutRunId` and the execution lock only when they belong to the committing run, so a successor that claimed the issue while its predecessor was finalizing keeps its claim and passes reviewed-chat attestation.

`attestReviewedExternalChatRun` reports the first failed check as a closed label. Setup failures store it in `resultJson.reviewedChatBinding.denialReason`, and Sentry run-failure diagnostics export it as `execution.reviewedChatBindingDenialReason` (no IDs or text). The error message is unchanged.

Nicky LeachandClaude Opus 5.5 0173110ee3 fix(native): point failed run attachments at the docs (#19052)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - When a later run cannot attach to a native session, the run fails,
and a later run may start a new provider thread.
> - The first failure is easy to miss. In 5 of 11 cases on a test
deployment, the run ended with a different error before it reported the
attach failure.
> - People and agents who diagnose a failed run look at its log and
events, so that is where an explanation is useful.
> - This pull request adds a pointer there at the first failure, with
the real cause and a link to the docs.
> - The benefit is that a failed attach explains itself, and readers can
find the open follow-up in #19047.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19047. I searched open and closed pull requests and issues for
`prior_attach_failed` and related terms, and found no duplicate.

## What Changed

- **Log:** `executeHeartbeatRuntime` writes one stderr line to the run
log when a same-run retry follows a failed `run.attach`.
- **Events:** `heartbeat.ts` adds a `lifecycle` event with the same
message and the code `native_run_attach_failed`, using the stored
redacted failure.
- **Helper:** `describeFailedAttachment` extracts the real cause and
returns nothing for other failures.
- **Docs:** "Session settlement after a run" in
`doc/execution-semantics.md` now explains this and links #19047.
- **Link target:** the pointer links to the repo docs and not the issue.
Agents read these logs, and anyone can comment on a public issue.
- **Unchanged:** error codes and retry behavior.

## Verification

- `cd server && pnpm exec vitest run
src/services/heartbeat/runtime-execution.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/remote-warm-session-recovery.test.ts`: 57
passed.
- `npx tsc --noEmit -p .` in `server` reports no errors.
- New tests cover the log line at the throw site, and the helper's
output for attach failures and other failures.
- **Not covered:** the new event in `heartbeat.ts` has no test of its
own. It uses the tested helper.
- **Not verified:** I have not confirmed that agents read this log when
they diagnose a failure.
- **Not run locally:** the full test suite. CI provides that coverage.

## Risks

- **Failure text in the log:** when the failure has no structured
message, the log line includes the whole failure string. It passes
through the run log's identity redaction. The event uses the stored
failure that the executor already redacted.
- **Link stability:** the link depends on the docs heading. Renaming
that heading would break the anchor but not the page link.
- **Migrations:** this change has no migration.

> 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 reworked.

Nicky LeachandClaude Opus 5.5 be20d4ad97 fix(projects): keep projects on the storage chosen at creation (#19036)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A project stores its work in Core/local storage or in a storage
plugin
> - Today, Core finds the installed default each time it reads a project
> - So installing a default storage plugin moves existing projects,
without a saved change
> - Agents that cannot reach the new storage then lose access to new
workspaces
> - This pull request makes Core apply the default once, when it creates
a project
> - The benefit is that a project stays on its storage until a person
moves it

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No issue exists. This describes the problem. I searched open pull
requests for related work and found no duplicate.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

How Core chooses the storage for a project when a plugin claims
`defaultForProjects`.

**Current behavior**

Installing such a plugin changes the storage of every existing project
with no explicit choice. Disabling the plugin changes it back. Nothing
is saved, so the project has no fixed owner. Execution environments and
storage are separate contracts, so an agent can lose access to new
workspaces on a project that it used before.

**Proposed behavior**

Core saves the storage choice on the project when it creates the
project. A project with no saved choice uses Core/local storage. A
plugin-backed project stays attached to its plugin. A Core/local project
can move to a plugin.

**Reason and benefit**

A project stays on its storage until a person moves it, so installing or
disabling a plugin does not change where work goes.

**Alternatives considered**

- Keep the default at read time and add a process that saves a choice on
existing projects when a plugin arrives. This adds a background step and
a race with new projects.
- Add a new database column. The existing policy field already holds the
choice, so a migration is not necessary.

## What Changed

- `resolveProjectWorkspaceProvider` reads only the saved choice. It no
longer applies an installed default.
- `withDefaultProjectStorage` applies the default when Core creates a
project, including a personal private project. With more than one
default, a project with no explicit choice is refused. This is the
existing conflict rule, now applied at creation.
- `projectService.update` refuses a change of storage on a plugin-backed
project. An update that omits the field keeps the attachment.
- Plugin lifecycle delivery sends project events to a storage provider
only for projects attached to it, and for deleted projects. Core
acknowledges the other events for that provider. Other plugins continue
to receive all project events.
- The project settings control has no "Inherit" option. It is locked on
a plugin-backed project.
- `ProjectWorkspaceProviderConfiguration.source` no longer has the
`"default"` value.
- A project with no repository or folder ignores its saved storage
choice when a task runs. A storage plugin cannot manage this type of
project, so its tasks use a plain task directory. Without this change,
the second run of a task reset the agent session, and remote agents
could not use an empty task directory.
- The plugin SDK README and the plugin authoring guide describe the new
rules.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run
server/src/__tests__/project-workspace-provider.integration.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/plugin-lifecycle-delivery.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/plugin-workspaces.integration.test.ts
packages/plugins/sdk/tests/workspace-provider.test.ts`: 93 tests pass.
- `npx vitest run src/components/ProjectProperties.concurrency.test.tsx`
in `ui/`: 9 tests pass.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` and `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/ui typecheck` pass.
- `npx vitest run` on `heartbeat-session-preparation`,
`workspace-preparation`, `remote-workspace-source`,
`project-workspace-provider.integration`, and
`plugin-workspaces.integration` in `server/`: 231 tests pass.
- I did not run the full test suite locally. CI runs it.
- I did not test this change on a running instance.

## Risks

- **Behavior change at upgrade:** an existing project that uses a plugin
only through the installed default, with no saved choice, moves to
Core/local storage after upgrade. Its plugin files stay in place, but
new work does not use them until an operator sets
`storageProviderPluginId` on the project. This pull request has no
automatic backfill.
- **Missed lifecycle events:** a provider does not receive events for a
Core/local project. If the project moves to that provider later, the
update event starts its reconcile.
- **One-way move:** a person cannot move a plugin-backed project back
through the API or the UI. This is intended. If a plugin is disabled,
the project fails closed, as it does today for an explicit choice.
- This pull request does not stop a person from assigning an agent to a
project with storage that the agent cannot reach. That is follow-up
work.
- This changes core plugin behavior, and I did not discuss it in `#dev`
first. Maintainers can tell me if they want a discussion before review.

DottaandPaperclip d180ad8c77 fix(heartbeat): retry chat execution authorization contention (#19017)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A task Retry must use the current task and chat authority.
> - The request and queue paths already retain a Retry through brief
lock contention.
> - Execution checks that authority twice, including after native input
preparation.
> - A busy task row or chat identity could fail the admitted run at
either check.
> - This pull request retries only the rolled-back authorization
transaction.
> - The same run can proceed after the lock clears. The final dispatch
gate still rejects changed ownership.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A failed chat task can accept a normal Retry and then fail during
execution setup when another PostgreSQL transaction holds the task row
or chat identity lock. The late check can fail after native input and
workspace preparation. The exception can then enter the workspace
preservation path.

**Expected behavior**

Keep the same admitted run and its frozen input. Retry a recognized,
rolled-back authorization conflict within the existing bound. Recheck
current authority before each attempt. Reject Stop, paused agents,
revoked chat access, or a changed task owner before the execution
callback.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Admit a normal failed-chat task Retry with the existing PostgreSQL
fixture.
2. On a second connection, hold the task row or the chat identity
advisory lock when execution authorization starts.
3. Release the lock after the real authorizer reports contention.
4. Observe that the original code fails the run before the authorized
callback. Repeat at the late native check after input preparation.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on master `039e0dad2c51c80251e1302a19c5566e039c357a`. The
branch is rebased on `8f06bd4e1`.

**Deployment mode**

Source checkout with real PostgreSQL and the local HTTP Retry route.
Provider and chat transport responses use controlled test fixtures.

Refs: #18895 and #18896 cover request and queue admission. This change
covers execution authorization. #18898 and #18989 cover predecessor
cleanup, a separate boundary. The roadmap and public PR search show no
duplicate execution-authorization repair.

## What Changed

- Recognize the existing typed chat-presentation contention error in the
bounded admission retry helper. Keep its existing PostgreSQL
lock-unavailable handling.
- Use that helper at both execution authorization checks. Each attempt
checks cancellation and the applicable legacy controller lease, then
opens a fresh transaction. The loop contains no provider or workspace
callback.
- Include failed-chat Retry in the existing final dispatch ownership
gate. This preserves current task ownership and native recovery owner
checks after a delay.
- Add real PostgreSQL contention, late prepared-input, Stop, pause,
revocation, owner replacement, native completion, and ordinary legacy
completion controls. Document the retry and dispatch boundaries.

## Verification

- The unchanged base failed real task-row and chat-identity contention
cases. A separate late native case failed after frozen input
preparation. A safety control then proved that a replaced task owner
could still reach the backend; the final dispatch gate fixes that path.
- All 11 PostgreSQL cases and all four helper controls pass. The tests
keep exact frozen model and trust input, reject changed authority, and
do not replay a provider callback.
- A real local HTTP Retry reaches the native executor, one controlled
provider turn, one accepted result, a committed finalizer, and one
published chat reply. Reprocessing the canonical request does not start
another turn.
- A separate real HTTP ordinary legacy Retry runs one controlled adapter
callback, completes its task through the normal service, and does not
replay the canonical request.
- Independent review found no material issue in the two production
files. It checked transaction scope, lock order, current ownership,
native lease expiry, and import cycles.
- The full workspace typecheck and full `pnpm build` pass on this head.
Full `pnpm test:run` passed all 1,916 chat integration cases. Its
broader server group reported the existing workspace-runtime case
`returns a bounded structured conflict and exposes only same-company
workspace references` as failed after 46 ms. The unchanged focused case
and the complete 179-case file both pass on rerun. The active broad run
was then stopped for this finite handoff; its child exited 130 and the
command exited 1. The detailed assertion was buffered and was not
retained, so its exact cause remains unknown. This is a partial local
run, not a full local pass; later local groups did not run. All three CI
chat shards pass. [Greptile reviewed this exact head at 5/5 with no
findings](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/19017#issuecomment-6638521119).
- Retained setup and fixture failures are not counted as product
regressions or passes. An incomplete copied Copilot runtime failed the
first typecheck; the supported installer repaired that isolated
dependency, then typecheck passed. Early acceptance fixtures used a
wrong publication field or did not complete their task; the final
controls use the real field and completion service.
- The first CI run failed [workspace shard
1](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41885475363/job/126769239992)
on child-server startup and a five-second dense ZIP test deadline.
[Server shard
2](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41885475363/job/126769239908)
failed an existing local runtime readiness probe. All 18 cases in the
two CLI files and the runtime case then passed unchanged locally on this
head. The CLI files also match an earlier independently verified head
byte for byte. One failed-job rerun was requested. Its [server
job](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41885475363/job/126777070120)
was cancelled after the runner received a shutdown signal. It produced
no test verdict. After that workflow ended, only the interrupted server
job and its required dependents were rescheduled once. The [complete
workspace rerun
passed](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41885475363/job/126777070125).
The [rescheduled server
job](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41885475363/job/126781960353)
and its aggregate passed. The [complete current-head workflow is
green](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41885475363).
All required current-head CI and security gates pass, including the
Ready-triggered scans; three conditional checks are skipped. The
complete unchanged idle-history file also passes all 75 cases locally.
No timeout or assertion changed; all attempts remain part of this
result.
- These local controls do not claim hosted-provider or Linux sandbox
acceptance. The original task-row failure did not retain a SQLSTATE; the
PostgreSQL reproduction proves the local gap without assigning that
original cause.

## Risks

- The existing bound allows 50 backoffs of 100 ms. It limits backoff
time, not total database or lease wall time.
- Native ownership is checked at the final dispatch gate. The
per-attempt controller lease assertion applies to legacy execution.
- A persistent lock or changed authority still fails closed. Unknown
prior provider effects and accepted work retain their existing guards.
- No migration or model, account, trust, credential, or permission
policy change is included.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, tool use, code editing, and
PostgreSQL verification. The host does not expose the exact serving
model ID or context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip 669538534c fix(recovery): preserve failed remote reattach workspaces (#18936)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Native runs can edit files in a remote execution workspace.
> - A failed reattach can leave an observed coordinator and unpublished
files.
> - The failure handler recognizes the older workspace-sync descriptor
but misses the modern workspace reference.
> - The released task lock then prevents ordinary session recovery from
claiming that old run.
> - This pull request retains the files through the existing Stop,
cleanup and workspace recovery owners.
> - Exact ownership and Stop evidence permit file preservation while
unknown provider effects remain under manual reconciliation.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #18877 protects native manual admission holds. #18879 handles
scheduled native retry lock reclaim. #18918 fixes remote workspace
row-lock order. Those changes do not record the missing modern
failure-retention obligation.

**What happened?**

A native reattach failure can leave a failed run, a dirty modern remote
workspace, an expired observed coordinator and a free task execution
lock. The run has no accepted result. The failure handler skips file
retention because it checks only the older descriptor. Recovery cannot
export while the old coordinator remains owned. A mismatched workspace
generation can also make orphan cleanup miss the existing file claim.

**Expected behavior**

Retain the exact original allocation and files. Stop the allocation
through the existing lifecycle owner before retiring the stale
coordinator. Keep checkpoints and unknown external effects available for
manual reconciliation. Unsafe or changed source authority must prevent
physical cleanup.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Prepare a modern remote workspace for a native run.
2. Record a provider checkpoint and an active interruption incident.
3. Fail reattach preparation and release the task execution lock.
4. Let the coordinator lease expire.
5. Run the existing orphan, environment cleanup and workspace recovery
workers.
6. Verify the original files from a cold archive read and verify that no
new native session starts.

## What Changed

- Include modern prepared references in the existing heartbeat
failure-retention producer.
- Add a file-only historical intake for an exact failed observed run in
the normal expired reattach state.
- Require an untouched active ephemeral lease, a free blocked task,
matching workspace writer and generation, no accepted result and
complete single-owner allocation history.
- Persist the existing StopAndRetain intent before provider I/O. Use
nonblocking row locks and classify busy ownership only after rollback.
- Use the existing native environment settlement owner after exact Stop
and retention receipts arrive. Keep its single scoped discovery query.
- Preserve source and coordinator fingerprints across the handoff. Keep
original checkpoints, errors and manual unknown-effect incidents.
- Keep stale or malformed modern workspace claims held when preservation
intake refuses them.
- Add actual PostgreSQL, heartbeat, allocator, worker restart, archive
and safety controls. Document the narrow recovery contract.

## Verification

Current published head `b1f49691187a398415cf9b16b723e3ab473f0f91`: all
required CI checks pass (54 success, 3 skipped, 1 neutral); Greptile is
5/5 with no open threads. The separate Paperclip assessment is queued
and its current response says work is paused. That assessment is
unavailable; no additional review nudge or hosted retry was issued.

All local commands use Node 24.22.2 on macOS arm64.

- Exact published head: `b1f49691187a398415cf9b16b723e3ab473f0f91`.
Required CI passes (54 success, 3 skipped, 1 neutral); Greptile is 5/5
with zero open threads. The optional Paperclip assessment remains
queued/paused without a completed score.
- Final recursive `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed.
- Final `pnpm build`: passed.
- Final three native producer, containment and scheduling files: **67/67
passed**. These include the real coordinator and worker restart, the
production heartbeat recovery callback, exact Stop receipts, cold
archive restore, and zero native backend, new allocation or destructive
release calls.
- The plugin allocator cases use the actual selector with `reuseLease:
true`. Active and released ephemeral leases receive a fresh allocation.
- The assembled reattach producer checks that the task and coordinator
claim commit before physical resume. A historical pin refuses that
current owner. A later claim behind a committed pin remains held.
- The safety controls cover reusable allocations, manual and unknown
states, cleanup in flight, accepted but unbound results, late allocation
owners, wrong or malformed workspace authority, changed
generation/checkpoint, lost Stop acknowledgement and a real
cleanup-producer lock conflict.
- Untouched base `e7549ab6131555f655736e6b544892a3b1e323cb`: four
expected behavioral failures and one passing legacy-descriptor control.
The failures cover the modern producer, original provider history,
historical retention and wrong-epoch cleanup. Fixed production files
were restored byte-for-byte after this comparison.
- The first affected six-file run completed **562 passed / 1 failed**.
The failure was an existing HTTP case with `socket hang up`. That exact
case passes separately on both untouched base and this branch. The
original connection failure remains unexplained. At `0e92de8c`, the
complete workspace family passes **188/188** with unchanged assertions.
The environment cleanup owner family also passes all 23 cases. The later
guard changes are qualified by the complete 67-case native owner group.
A full repository test run was not repeated locally; the requested
full-ci workflow runs the complete repository suites.
- Published `0e92de8c` fails both new explicit-null Stop/export marker
controls because it creates a new retention pin. The follow-up uses the
shared presence-aware Stop guard. Both controls now preserve the marker
and record no new retention pin, Stop or destructive release.
- Paperclip's review found that malformed workspace authority could
throw and abort an orphan page. Published `5f6cd4f5` fails all three new
controls: intake, the actual page and after-Stop settlement. The same
strict schema now uses a safe parse, and the existing OBSERVED hold runs
before the prepared-source lookup. The malformed source stays held while
the next valid source receives its retention pin.
- Two existing scheduling tests caught the draft's second global
discovery query. The final single-query repair passes all 36 unchanged
scheduling tests.
- An earlier restarted archive assertion stopped after 20 seconds. Its
recorded Stop was valid, and the coordinator had settled. The existing
evidence recheck deadline was still 13 seconds ahead. The final test
observes the unchanged 24–36 second policy within its existing 60 second
case limit.

The external fake provider Stop and file transport are controlled test
boundaries. Database ownership, lifecycle workers, archive bytes,
encrypted local storage and cold restore are real. This does not claim a
live cloud sandbox, S3 or model run. No hosted task was changed for this
PR.

## Risks

- Historical intake is deliberately narrow. Reusable, already released,
mismatched or competing allocations remain held.
- File preservation does not settle unknown provider effects or
authorize a repeated provider turn. The task can still require manual
reconciliation.
- A busy or changed owner delays preservation. The original files and
claims remain retained.
- This does not repair the underlying sandbox readiness failure or
establish the cause of a separate archive-capture failure.
- Deployment and recovery of original hosted tasks remain unverified.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with repository inspection, code execution
and GitHub tools. The runtime does not expose the exact serving model ID
or context window size. A separate Codex agent and the coordinator
performed read-only source review.

DottaandPaperclip 7b1c53f8f1 fix(recovery): continue verified preparation after lease interruption (#18892)
Use recorded system interruption and the existing execution, controller, stopped-lease, and saved-file proof instead of a shutdown-only error label. Preserve bounded retries, user Stops, task authority, and exactly one continuation.

Keep the chat recovery fixture faithful to the preparation stage and terminal time written by the real lifecycle. Retain missing-field safety controls.

DottaandPaperclip 451d06e2fc fix: resume interrupted Runner preparation and confirm failure report delivery (#18853)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for work.
> - The server owns run recovery and task continuation after a restart.
> - A shutdown can interrupt Runner preparation before any provider work starts.
> - Workspace recovery can save the files but leave that task behind a legacy execution hold.
> - Retry then accepts a request without starting a successor. Startup also leaves the task blocked.
> - This pull request verifies the interrupted preparation, preserves its files, and admits one bounded continuation.
> - It also keeps a dropped Sentry capture eligible for a later report.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A hosted task remained blocked after a graceful server shutdown interrupted Runner preparation. Its remote workspace was recovered. Retry returned an accepted request, but no successor started. Startup did not resume it. The task also had no matching Sentry event.

The recovery cause is verified. The exact cause of the missing historical Sentry event is unknown. A separate regression with the real Sentry SDK proves that processing backpressure can drop a capture while the task cache marks it as reported forever.

**Expected behavior**

Retry must continue eligible interrupted work from its saved workspace. Startup must schedule one bounded retry when durable evidence proves that no provider started. A later task read must be able to retry an unconfirmed Sentry report.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Interrupt Runner preparation during a server shutdown before native runtime selection.
2. Retain and recover its remote workspace under the legacy recovery hold.
3. Press Retry, or restart after file recovery has completed.
4. Observe that the task remains blocked without a successor.

For the reporting case, hold the first Sentry event in its asynchronous enrichment step. Fill the SDK processing buffer. Capture a second task failure, release the first event, and read the second failed task again later.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced against source commit `4d31588dea`. The hosted incident served `6ef37398c8d799c5142a3a6590ecc70ad352b663`.

**Deployment mode**

Hosted Linux server with remote workspaces and external PostgreSQL. Local regressions use the source checkout on macOS arm64, Node 26.4.0, PostgreSQL 17.10, and the audited optional Sentry SDK 10.71.0.

Related public changes: #18541 added task-state failure reports. #18678 retained remote exports before Retry. #18803 fenced remote workspace writers before continuation.

The small backend-port fixture correction follows #18739. It is included here because the same existing setup defect blocked CI.

## What Changed

- Verify pre-native shutdown interruption against the immutable adapter claim, controller ownership, run events, native records, stopped leases, and exact workspace recovery receipts.
- Retire only the server's unchanged bootstrap failure block. Admit explicit Retry through the existing continuation path.
- Discover completed workspace recovery at startup and schedule one retry under the existing failure budget. Let saved input own its continuation.
- Apply the existing safe replacement dispatch checks to preparation retries. A later human block, competing execution, dependency, pause, approval, or budget gate must still prevent dispatch.
- Keep execution evidence available through the bounded run projection.
- Confirm Sentry task-report delivery from a successful SDK HTTP response. Keep unconfirmed captures pending for 60 seconds before a later task read can retry them. Both caches remain bounded and start no timer.
- Document recovery and report delivery semantics.
- Align existing handoff/budget assertions with the guarded preparation retry reason. Keep the owned-runtime fixture outside reserved proxy ports, with bounded allocation attempts.

## Verification

- Red before the recovery fix: all three new Retry/startup cases failed because no successor was created. Green after the fix: all three passed with real saved workspace archives and PostgreSQL.
- The pre-merge revision passes all 384 tests in the six affected recovery, run-control, run-state, retry, and dispatch suites.
- The late-block regression failed before its repair. Its four focused recovery/dispatch cases then passed, including final dispatch cancellation.
- Review found a second stop check that still rejected verified local and lease-free preparation. Both new cases failed before that repair. All 17 interrupted-preparation regressions passed on the pre-merge revision.
- The Sentry regression failed with the real SDK before the fix. All 91 affected reporting tests then passed. The transport stays in memory. No test sends events to Sentry.
- Full repository typecheck passed with `node scripts/typecheck-low-memory.mjs`. The full `pnpm build` and module boundary check passed.
- CI found untyped delivery-hook parameters when the optional Sentry SDK was absent. Explicit callback types fix that build. The SDK-absent server build and all 91 SDK-present reporting tests pass.
- Server typecheck passes with the SDK installed and the real Sentry SDK contract CI job passes. Greptile reviewed the pre-merge commit `103e175c44` at 5/5 with no open findings.
- The local full-suite attempt initially overlapped the rebase and stopped at test-line selection. Its unchanged-head rerun passed the first 309-test chat shard. I stopped the old-head run before applying review fixes. Current-head CI owns the remaining full-suite verification.
- CI exposed two old retry-reason expectations. The handoff and retry-budget checks pass with the new guarded reason. A separate existing process-adoption fixture chose port 42953 in the reserved 42000–42999 proxy range. The fixture now rejects reserved ports, following #18739. Its real process/adoption/termination test passes locally.
- The final Runner package job [initially failed](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41718507919/job/126205912033) one unchanged Codex credential case after it could not acquire its port quorum, then timed out. The complete unchanged 42-case credential suite passes locally. One unchanged CI retry passed; the original competing port owner was not identified. No Runner implementation or credential test was changed.
- Required CI passes on `103e175c4490e1bdf804c64a8635b0e4568545ae`, including `ci / verify` and `ci / e2e`. That revision has Greptile 5/5 with no open findings. The optional Paperclip Review check on that earlier head remained queued, waiting for its assigned agent.
- Merged current `master` without replacing published commits. The retry gate retains both shutdown interruption checks and the new workspace preparation timeout policy. All 311 tests in the five combined recovery, retry scheduling, completion, and native startup suites passed after the conflict resolution. Server typecheck passed. Final head `005d380b00d45a2393c4a2a190eab27611168d3c` includes the next conflict-free master update. All 17 interrupted-preparation regressions passed again on that final head. Greptile reviewed that exact head at 5/5 with no new findings. Required CI passes on that exact head, including `ci / verify`, `ci / e2e`, typecheck, build, the full test shards, and the real Sentry SDK isolation check. The optional Paperclip Review remains queued, waiting for its assigned agent; it is not a required branch check.
- On the final head, six test jobs were cancelled after their spot runners received shutdown signals at the same time. Another server shard passed 2,419 tests, but its unchanged 103-record cleanup backlog case exceeded the 15-second limit. The unchanged full cleanup suite then passed all 29 tests locally. One unchanged retry of only the seven unsuccessful jobs passed. The [original cancellation and timeout logs](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41724898038/attempts/1) remain in the workflow history. No cleanup implementation or test was changed.
- The signed-in hosted UI reproduced the failed Retry before the fix. The fixed path is covered through the real HTTP Retry route and assembled heartbeat/recovery services. This PR has not been deployed to the hosted incident. A live repaired Retry remains unverified until rollout.

## Risks

- Automatic continuation must not repeat provider work. It requires positive preparation evidence and rejects retained provider, process-launch, coordinator, result, live-controller, unsafe lease, or mismatched workspace evidence.
- Repeated recovery calls must create one successor. Tests cover concurrent requests, repeated startup visits, pending Retry, retry exhaustion, and changed task ownership.
- Sentry delivery state stays local to the process. A restart or cache eviction can report a failure again. An unconfirmed event needs a later task read to retry.
- No schema or API contract changes are required.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex. This session does not expose a more specific deployment ID or context window size. Reasoning, code editing, test execution, and browser diagnostics assisted the change.

DottaandPaperclip 1f55073f96 fix(cursor-cloud): support API-only controllers on managed stacks (#18310)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip helps people manage AI agents at work.
> - Cursor Cloud hosts execution behind its API.
> - Product setup still expected a Paperclip Computer.
> - Managed-only tenants therefore rejected valid setup.
> - This admits the validated API-owned controller.
> - Authority, Stop proof, budgets and cleanup remain enforced.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18068 and #18069; both dependencies have merged.

**What happened?**

Managed-only setup still requested a Computer. Live tests exposed
missing Cursor Stop proof and duplicate replay.

**Expected behavior**

Use Cursor’s API controller. Verify provider/controller termination and
replay each log identity once.

**Steps to reproduce**

Enable native Runner/managed-only. Configure Cursor model/repository/key
without a Computer, then Test, finish setup, run and Stop.

## What Changed

- Derive API-only placement from validated native Cursor configuration;
reject placement/command/workspace/home overrides and keep
Kubernetes-only execution closed.
- Skip Computers/checkout/workspace realization. Keep scoped tools,
completion, private staging, budgets, leases and recovery. Persist
placement; reject contradictions.
- Align Cloud cards, Test, Save and Finish setup; hold unready drafts.
Legacy keeps its Computer, credential and policy checks.
- Verify Stop from exact API ownership, audited intent,
provider-terminal proof, no Computer/process ownership and controller
retirement. Recheck immediate/deferred retirement; wake existing
recovery on durable evidence.
- Clear warnings when the actual stopped target later has authoritative
confirmation. Keep missing/other-run negatives and the existing
predicate.
- Publish safe status refresh after full-proof ACK. Retain bounded
native/physical cancellation history; add no poller or weaker proof
path.

## Verification

Core merged as `3910352c923a`; Product merged as `27d35314be8e`. Public
branch `5f86eb66b081` has tree `67344151d303`. Its exact-head Greptile
summary is 5/5; the fresh audit found zero unresolved threads and
complete pagination. The controlled workspace retry and required summary
passed. All 59 current-head contexts are terminal and clean. Prior
green-36 evidence keeps its identity.

[Current
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41680511731)
first failed workspaces-a 1/2: the CLI company-import/export beforeAll
30-second runtime-info/child-PID/HTTP readiness wait expired. All 431 UI
files/4,714 tests and 285 other CLI tests passed (one skip). The cause
remains UNKNOWN. Child output records startup recovery complete, but
buffered CI prefixes do not establish its relation to the waiter
deadline; runtime-file/PID/last-health state was not captured. Both
unchanged local probes were RED. The second observed dependency
preflight still pending at the deadline; observer overhead was not
quantified. Neither proves the CI cause. After all functional jobs
finished, only the queued metadata summary was cancelled; the other 48
records stayed unchanged. Attempt 1 retains 46 successes, the original
failure, one skip and the cancelled summary. One same-head debug retry
was admitted at 18:42 UTC on November 3. Its workspace job passed at
19:23 UTC on the same checkout: UI 431 files/4,714 tests and CLI 33
files/286 tests, including company import/export. Test caching was
disabled. The new `ci / verify` summary passed; workflow attempt 2
completed SUCCESS. Required `ci / e2e` also passed. The final check at
19:53 UTC on November 3 found all 59 current-head contexts terminal and
clean: zero pending and zero failing. The 47 inherited completed/skipped
rows are not new executions. No code, assertion or timeout changed;
success does not explain the original failure or erase the local REDs.

CI checkout is `1ea9d8608ced`/tree `78cb1ec13d59` (parents
`2e37c73c05fe`, 5f86); both workflows use 2e37. Its 20 extra paths add
low-memory build/Rust task-memory. Scripts cohere; later matrix changes
only labels, with no newer debug-cache steps. Static audit found no
blocker. Supported API arguments omit the memory flag: no default
monitor/instruction changes. Flagged external launchers can change
Cursor instructions/digests and remain unqualified.

The merge added 41 master-identical paths, retained the green-36 inbox
hunk and found UI fixtures matching upstream. Startup/backup, recovery
projection, sleep diagnostics and binary backup change production.
Static audit found eight Stop/ACK owner blobs and 37 sleep-work SQL
templates unchanged, with sleep fences/single-flight accounting intact.
Exact precommit tree: 416/416 across eight server files, binary backup
1/1, server types PASS; repeated scopes are not summed.

The deferred-retirement P1 reproduced three real-DB/owned-process
failures; missing proof stayed unverified. Recovery passed 47 process
cases/33 proof negatives. Warning repair binds actual targets to
same-run proof. Validation passed 729 scoped UI cases, a separate
359-case thread run, 111 backend cases (84 CAS, 6 assembled, 21
activity/privacy), types/tokens. Proof validators/predicate are
unchanged; no new poller or increased timeout.

The d8d3 attempt stays FAILED: 45 passes, two workspaces-a failures,
derived verify failure and one skip. Both shards shared three failures:
two successful mocks omitted the account guard’s required userId. The
two-line fixture repair changed no guard, assertion or timeout. Three
failures reproduced; 54 access/auth tests then passed, including
account-change/denial negatives, plus UI types/tokens.

The 69285 attempt stays FAILED: 49 jobs, 46 passed, serialized shard 9
failed, its verify aggregate failed and one selection job skipped. The
shard passed 575/576 cases. Its aborted-snapshot case expected nine
computes but saw eight: a final HTTP 200 coalesced while seven ordinary
reads had not proved the aborted compute settled. Earlier CI and the
unmodified local baseline passed with a miss; no local RED is claimed.
The repair awaits the snapshot, allows exactly one extra GET if
coalesced, then requires a miss and retains nine computes/all HTTP429
assertions. No production code, hook, loop, sleep or timeout changed.
Six inbox and seven cache/admission cases passed locally, plus server
types; 30 unrelated cases were filtered. Green 36 passed 576/576 without
taking the extra-GET branch; local runs also missed that schedule.
Current CI event merge 1ea9 now passed 576/576 and naturally exercised
the former failure: coalesced (count 2, 1ms), then exactly one fresh
miss (count 1, 16ms), with strict nine-compute/HTTP429 assertions
intact. No instrumentation or retry was added.

Earlier compatibility passed scoped remote/inbox, routine, API-placement
and UI tests, plus types/migrations/snapshots/maps/tokens. The 89-path
adoption restored fleet routing without workflow overrides or added
skips. Each result retains its source identity.

Live qualification remains actual `9af1a5de42a2`: unchanged Artifact
grader PASSED 17/17 and active-Stop grader PASSED 21/21. All three
provider test resources were deleted canonically with GET404;
post-delete download returned the exact 27 bytes. Histories stayed
stable (Artifact 121 and Stop 67 canonical identities), with 21 company
runs, zero active work and no accounting/cancellation/reservation debt
or integrity findings. Saved settings reopened; no-prompt Test/Linux
admission passed with `claude-sonnet-4-5`. No new Save is claimed.

The first Stop sampling case stays FAILED on a 10.373-second gap.
Unchanged retry kept all 24 samples: 35.076 seconds quiet, maximum gap
4.584 seconds, plus a separate CANCELLED/artifact-absent read after 180
seconds. Initial grading rejected locator spelling before functional
checks; metadata changed only after same-file/inode/byte proof, with raw
evidence/oracles unchanged. Original Question/Plan/reconnect and
historical deleted-artifact results keep their identities.

Git trees verified 11 history-only conflicts and six earlier mainline
paths. Hosted 9af to the public BRANCH differs in 222 paths; 13,500
other mode/blob leaves match. Runner runtime implementations and six
observer/driver pins match 9af on that branch only; inherited
`drivers/acpx/runtime-host.test.ts` differs. No all-Runner/src,
CI/latest-master runtime or image equality is claimed. Later static
audits through `8ab89f41e499` found no concrete API-only blocker. That
base adds completed-history sleep proofs and an MCP cleanup migration;
protected Stop/ACK owners are unchanged. These later changes are outside
this CI and have no live qualification here. Host duplicate-card and
later recovery/UI repairs retain separate proof, not deployed 9af
identity. Direct-key coverage requires absent aiConnection; API-only
placement skips inherited remote-workspace disk-full paths, and
config-read gates match their parent.

Other retained failures: stale fixture 132/133; E8 48/135 with 87
reset-hook failures; Mac 17 SQL failures/skips;
title/startup/custody/Stop/deletion unknown causes and bounded
recoveries; superseded warning/50 duplicate identities; pre-repair
ACK/Core CI failures. Fixture RED/GREEN passed 7/7 browser and 121/121
shutdown tests with a failing broken-unsubscribe control; stable WSP
wrapper passed 128 after physical teardown failure. No full local-suite
pass is inferred. All paid attempts remain recorded; vendor dollar cost
is UNKNOWN.

## Risks

Experimental: Cursor independently acknowledges neither the effective
model nor instruction digest before the first prompt. Explicit values
are submitted and behavior checked live; unpriced provider dollar cost
stays UNKNOWN.

The placement exception applies only to validated native Cursor API
execution. Other local work remains denied under managed-only policy.
Missing/stale Stop or cleanup proof stays pending; damaged archives
remain failed. Explicit Legacy keeps its existing policy owners.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex/GPT-6 family: tools, execution, browser checks, delegated
review. API ID/context window unavailable.

DottaandPaperclip 40ea7a9b89 fix(heartbeat): wait for inherited remote workspace writers (#18691)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - A child task can inherit its parent's remote workspace.
> - The remote workspace permits one writer until that writer saves its
files.
> - Reservation reports an active writer as a generic setup failure.
> - The existing shared workspace wait does not cover inherited isolated
workspaces or a race at reservation.
> - This pull request sends verified active writer contention through
the existing scheduled retry path.
> - The child keeps a live execution path while unfinished files remain
protected.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A native sandbox task inherited an isolated remote workspace from its
running parent. Setup failed with `The workspace still has an unfinished
writer or save operation.` The child became blocked before provider
execution and had no scheduled continuation after the parent saved.

**Expected behavior**

The child waits for the active writer through the existing workspace
retry path. It keeps its workspace binding. A stale writer or a stopped
writer with unfinished saves still requires reconciliation.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a native sandbox task with remote workspace storage.
2. Create a child that inherits its isolated workspace or operator
branch while the parent is still writing.
3. Start the child. On the old code, atomic reservation raises a generic
setup failure.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Observed on `410b0e27015495ab8951768b5b0b94727de33785`. Regression
reproduced on source based on
`554a770c6f8e48e327e19f5208b575a5ec5bce30`.

**Deployment mode**

Authenticated managed server, external PostgreSQL, native Codex with a
Daytona sandbox. The failed attempt stopped before runtime selection or
provider startup.

Related: #18611 permits inherited remote bindings. #16371 adds waits for
reused shared execution workspaces. This repair handles active writer
contention at atomic remote reservation. #17156 proposes a separate
change to task workspace inheritance.

## What Changed

- Return a typed conflict with the exact active writer from the remote
reservation owner. Keep company, binding, access, and writer checks in
that transaction.
- Translate a recent running writer into the existing heartbeat
workspace wait. Keep stale, unknown, stopped, dirty, and uncertain save
fences. The writer task lookup uses its primary key.
- Preserve the admitted assignee role across preparation so reassignment
cannot turn an old owner into a guest retry.
- Add PostgreSQL regressions for isolated workspaces, operator branches,
native writer identity, unchanged saved authority, admission after save,
durable retry, Stop, and reassignment before contention reaches the wait
handler.
- Update the development guide and workspace verification recipes.

## Verification

- Red: both inherited isolated/operator preparation cases fail on the
old code. They receive `HttpError(remote_workspace_writer_pending)`
instead of a workspace wait. No provider or allocation starts.
- Green: those same cases pass after the repair. The assembled public
heartbeat cases also pass: one scheduled retry owns the task lock, no
sandbox lease is created, the original writer and saved authority remain
unchanged, and Stop prevents retry promotion.
- Ownership race red/green: changing the assignee during preparation
produced `wasIssueAssignee: false` before the review fix. The same
regression now preserves its original role. A real transaction fault
boundary also reassigns the task after reservation rejects it and before
the wait handler runs; promotion cancels that retry with
`issue_reassigned`.
- Test isolation: an initial combined placement cached the synthetic S3
run-log backend and failed twelve later preparation cases. The assembled
native tests now have their own process. The ordered reproduction and
all four complete affected suites pass after that change: 171 tests,
zero skipped.
- Four additional saved-file lifecycle cases pass against disposable
Docker PostgreSQL 17 with independent filesystem execution and local
object storage. They restore inherited shared, isolated, and
operator-branch files on a new allocation and retain the second-writer
fence. The other 42 cases in that file were outside the selection.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, `node scripts/check-maps.mjs`, and
`git diff --check` pass on the final source.
- The earlier `pnpm test:run` passed all six chat shards: 1,828 tests.
Its remaining general-server phase was interrupted after final-head CI
passed. That local command began before the review fix and is not a
complete local full-suite pass.
- Final head `096235d8fc80033f92d8de1fcfa9835795ba0456`: 54 successful
checks/statuses, three skipped checks, and two neutral checks. None is
pending or failed. All build, typecheck, general/serialized tests,
Runner checks, and eight browser E2E shards pass in
[CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41544310900).
The PR is mergeable with no conflicts.
- Greptile is 5/5 on that exact head. Its ownership finding is resolved
and no review thread remains open. Paperclip Review also reports 5/5
with no findings; its check conclusion is neutral. Its earlier
status-conflict recovery completed through the ordinary review request
path.
- Local environment: macOS arm64, Node 26.4.0, pnpm 9.15.4, isolated
native PostgreSQL and the disposable PostgreSQL 17 lifecycle fixture.
The acquisition boundary is controlled in the focused preparation cases.
No live Codex/Daytona replay is claimed: the local environment and test
configuration lack the required test credentials.
- No deployment, merge, or original task recovery is claimed.

## Risks

- Incorrect contention classification could retry a stopped or
unverified writer. Only a running writer with a same-company task and
recent activity enters the wait path. Stale and terminal dirty cases
retain the conflict.
- Retries must not start another executor or release unsaved files.
Reservation remains atomic. The tests check unchanged writer authority,
no allocation before release, one durable retry, retained binding, Stop,
and reassignment before the conflict is caught.
- No API schema, database migration, provider configuration, model,
credential, trust, or approval changes.

## Model Used

- OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` through Codex. The context window size is not
exposed in this session. Used reasoning, tool use, code execution, and
browser diagnostics. No sub-agents were used.

DottaandPaperclip 16643a6e03 fix(runner): recover pending Stop cleanup after controller restart (#18682)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The server owns execution, Stop delivery, and usage settlement.
> - A Stop can remain pending when the controller restarts.
> - Recovery must reach the existing session without starting more paid
work.
> - Startup and budget fences currently block that cleanup, and
interrupted runs leave the restart selection.
> - This pull request gives exact audited Stop cleanup a shared
authority check and records its real acknowledgement.
> - The benefit is safe cleanup while usage debt remains honest.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A pending native run-only Stop can retain an unfinished execution owner
after controller loss. Its startup cancellation fence prevents recovery
admission. If teardown marks the run interrupted and clears its task
lock, restart selection also omits it. A recovered session can receive
cancellation without the durable acknowledgement that the normal Stop
request would save.

**Expected behavior**

Recover only the existing remote session for the audited pending Stop.
Keep fresh provider work blocked, including during budget pause. Keep
incomplete usage pending until a real complete receipt arrives.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a native run with a held reservation and an authenticated
remote checkpoint.
2. Persist a run-only Stop and its startup and execution cancellation
fences before acknowledgement.
3. Lose the controller. Leave the coordinator unfinished, mark the run
interrupted, and clear its task lock.
4. Attempt restart recovery and observe the missing claim or
cancellation admission rejection.

Related work: #14733 binds caller Stop requests. #18658 handles plugin
startup cleanup obligations. #18035 proposes broader accounting changes.
This change repairs existing-session Stop recovery and preserves current
accounting guards.

## What Changed

- Add one shared check for the exact run, company, issue, pending Stop,
intent audit, live recovery lease, generation, and remote reattachment
disposition.
- Include eligible interrupted Stop owners in restart selection. Keep
generic interruptions and another task execution owner fenced.
- Reuse only the original held reservation for cleanup. Keep budget
pause effective for fresh, bootstrap, dead-runner, and unproven recovery
work.
- Apply the same cleanup authority at heartbeat runtime selection and
native entry. Skip attachment staging and warm-owner retirement only for
that exact cleanup. Revalidate at session publication and fail closed if
the proof changed.
- Send the existing Stop through the audited cancellation producer
before turn submission. Close the coordinator only after
acknowledgement, including system-owned run-only Stops.
- Give verified cleanup a transport purpose that retains pending
semantic inputs without replay, dispatch, or a semantic reply. Add an
explicit Core retain-only intake mode; preserve authenticated identity,
schema, digest, sequence and replay checks. Ordinary execution still
requires its dispatcher.
- Add PostgreSQL, native protocol, and startup-fence regressions. Update
the execution contract and recovery maps.

## Verification

- The combined Stop regression fails on unchanged production at the
cancellation reservation guard. Interrupted restart selection also fails
before the repair while its running sibling passes.
- An assembled `heartbeatService.recoverNativeRunsAfterRestart`
regression exposes the earlier runtime-selection fence with the rest of
the repair present. The fixed path reaches selector/claim, runtime
selection, original held-budget reuse during pause, dispatch, real
native protocol, audited cancellation, and heartbeat settlement. It
starts no provider turn, acquires no new sandbox, and does not reclaim
the task lock.
- Fail-if-called attachment staging and turn boundaries remain
untouched. A retained warm-owner regression prevents retirement.
Invalidation at session publication fails closed. Actual backend/driver
constructor tests verify cleanup-purpose forwarding, absent default
options, and denial under foreign ownership.
- Missing usage retains accounting debt and the hold. A later complete
receipt records one 25-cent charge and settles that same hold.
Concurrent duplicate cleanup is denied. Both user-owned and system-owned
Stops pass.
- Real transport tests: 9 pass on Node 24.22.1. They preserve ordinary
saved-tool and completion recovery, prove the authority-denial race
before cancellation, and qualify cleanup with pending
ordinary/completion inputs and either handler ordering.
- Real authenticated Core intake: 11 pass. Callback-present and
callback-absent retain-only cases persist and acknowledge unanswered
input without dispatch, recovery or result. Default missing-dispatcher
rejection and digest-integrity/suspension guards remain effective.
Omitting the callback alone first failed by disconnecting; the explicit
retain-only mode fixes that defect.
- Repository `pnpm -r typecheck`, the server/runner-vendor build, map
checks, and module boundary checks passed locally before integrating the
latest retained-startup change. That integration passes 11 native
startup/cleanup compatibility cases and 3 assembled recovery/accounting
cases. The final broad affected-suite attempt was stopped without a
verdict; it is incomplete. Full repository tests and build are delegated
to current-head GitHub CI.
- Review exposed an additional real-process close failure with
unanswered input. The corrected path requires a fresh exact
provider-stop receipt confirming exit, followed by durable event drain
and exact runner suspension. All 11 focused transport cases pass,
including missing/false exit-proof negatives and ordinary recovery
siblings. Runner TypeScript and map validation pass after this
correction.
- The assembled test controls provider, workspace-transfer and GitHub
bootstrap I/O. It does not qualify hosted credentials, physical provider
termination, workspace preservation, or historical receipt recovery.
Local socket-permission setup failures are separate from semantic
regression results. No hosted replay has run on this repair.

- CI exposed an ordinary factory-call compatibility regression and an
obsolete authority-read test fixture. The repair preserves
single-argument ordinary calls and updates the race fixture without
changing its Stop assertions. The complete native executor suite now
passes all 1,049 tests; the ordinary factory boundary and all five
Stop-accounting cases pass. A separate local environment-default case
twice exceeded its five-second wait while other work ran; its prior-head
CI case passed. The same unchanged case passed an isolated diagnostic
without changing its assertion or timeout; the precise contention source
remains unproven.

- The final fixture edit initially used the wrong overloaded promise
type. CI rejected it; the annotation-only correction passes the exact
`pnpm run typecheck:build-gaps` entry point locally, including server
service tests and remaining workspaces. No runtime assertion changed.

- Final exact head `007fd4d04a2d6338c6dc073e97ab470a277fc3d0`: required
`ci / verify` and `ci / e2e`, build, typecheck and test groups pass.
Greptile is 5/5 with both findings resolved. Three expected checks are
skipped; the optional native check is neutral, while its final
current-head comment gives 5/5 from source inspection without a checkout
or test execution. The first server-shard attempt lost its self-hosted
runner connection; one scoped rerun passed. Its original annotation and
unavailable-log evidence are retained.

## Risks

- This changes execution authority. Cleanup requires an audited, exactly
bound pending Stop, an unfinished coordinator, a live remote
reattachment claim, and the original held reservation. It never
authorizes a replacement provider turn.
- Missing checkpoint, original held reservation, termination, or usage
evidence can keep cleanup or accounting pending. The repair does not
manufacture acknowledgement, replies, receipts, or zero cost.
- Retain-only intake is an internal trusted constructor option. It
changes no agent tool permission. Ordinary callback requirements and
semantic dispatch remain unchanged.
- No schema, public API, provider profile, or deployment setting changes
are required.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, `gpt-6.1-sol`, Extra High reasoning, with source
inspection, code execution, and regression testing. The context-window
capacity is not exposed in this session.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip a9b18e1cbe fix(runner): preserve cleanup ownership across startup failures (#18658)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip controls which run owns an agent task.
> - A plugin can continue accepted work after Core stops waiting.
> - A late task-creation reply can therefore arrive after startup
cancellation.
> - Core must keep that work owned until its resource identity and
cleanup outcome are known.
> - This PR supplies the cleanup and recovery support before shared
startup is enabled.
> - The dependent activation PR can then reuse transport data within a
bounded startup context.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18405. This is the independently mergeable prerequisite for that
stacked activation PR.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Cleanup of explicitly recorded startup work that outlives its caller.

**Current behavior**

Caller timeout, worker exit, or failed cleanup-intent persistence can
leave work without a complete recovery path.

**Proposed behavior**

Retain the cleanup obligation, use existing Stop and recovery queues,
and release ownership only after the exact task and accepted work have
stopped. Ordinary calls keep their existing startup payloads and
budgets. This PR does not create startup contexts or advertise transport
reuse.

**Reason and benefit**

Separate the failure-handling contract from activation so each can be
reviewed on its own. This support PR has **no standalone TTFT speedup**.

## What Changed

- Add the startup cleanup marker, exact ownership checks, verified
completion, and acknowledgement helpers.
- Connect recorded cleanup obligations to existing Stop, deadline
reconciliation, restart recovery, and retry scheduling.
- Retain typed cleanup responsibility when a database write fails. Keep
the nonterminal run from being treated as ordinary completed cleanup.
- Observe late acquisition results and save resource identities before
retiring them. Retain real host writes and received results across
worker exit or persistence failure.
- Queue abandoned replacement tasks through the existing creation
journal and cleanup machinery. Require the replacement's own Stop proof.
- Accept an explicit startup context in the internal bridge for lifetime
tracking. Automatic context creation, marker production, capability
advertisement, transport capture, and executor activation belong to
#18405.
- Add PostgreSQL and worker IPC regressions, including legacy payload
assertions.

## Verification

Initial split source `8fb482d8be9e70101b0cfdd0830f41cf5b8e3cf4` had tree
`95508bd1859e991670cad8afd4de8d2167009ac5`. **190 distinct targeted
tests pass**, along with server typechecking. The selected checks cover
real PostgreSQL cleanup/ownership, worker IPC, the bridge and creation
journal, ordinary/distributed Stop, restart and deadline recovery,
idle-sleep behavior, and the unchanged legacy warm-task suite.
Independent recovery and worker reviews found no blocking issue.

The first correction, `b6342d42042601b376da38dc8e1dba9ca80e9539`, fixes
the replacement cleanup finding with the existing startup-cleanup
marker, scoped to contextual abandoned task creations. The replacement
was never prepared, so preparation-stop proof is not required. No
dispatch is fabricated and no normal-startup query is added. The actual
queue/sweep/driver/receipt/cancellation regression fails before the fix
and passes after it: void, running or foreign-task status retains
ownership; exact-task stopped status permits completion even when
Release returns void. **64 affected targeted cases and server
typechecking pass**. Independent review found no blocker.

Current source is `f53af72af76f263096c3c2e788506e6faef9474f`. It fixes
both recovery findings from the prior head's Apex 3/5: orphan recovery
now preserves pending or completed-but-not-cancelled cleanup through its
existing final-write fence, and exact late identities can reach verified
cleanup after reconciliation or restart. The regression selection went
from four failing assertions to six passing cases. Affected selections
cover 217 distinct cases; the exact final six-case regression and server
typecheck pass. Independent reviewers found no blocker in either fix.
Current-head standard review is 5/5 and all CI checks pass (54
successes, three expected skips, plus Snyk). Apex also completed at
**5/5** on this exact head, with zero unresolved threads. The requested
independent availability audit is complete on this head. It found an
activation-dependent operability gap: an acquisition response that is
never received can leave an unknown creation identity with no supported
task inspection/reconciliation path, while cleanup keeps the run owner
reserved. This does not occur in ordinary lower-only calls. The contract
and recovery policy need follow-up before activation; the external
review scores do not resolve that availability tradeoff.

The split preserves the accepted implementation at `21db7b3851` after
its clean merge with frozen master
`946735d03a55c1fb4cc5434d6bf1d87742daa9df`. The initial dependent
activation PR restored exact aggregate tree
`f68c6895f87c7b93ae03e6324d955d2659a99dce`. Both subsequent cleanup
corrections are integrated into upper head
`27978f294a02da3992585c7f4daa73cd8fcf99f8`; its current aggregate tree
is `a0b66c33f5e22745f034f45d24d213f5c210cf16`. Lower-only payload tests
cover the absence of capability advertisement and transport projection.

Only targeted local tests and typechecking are used. Full regression
coverage runs in GitHub CI. No deployment or ROM qualification is part
of this change.

The lower audit covered connected worker, creation-journal, Stop,
restart, deadline and orphan-recovery paths. A new isolated
real-PostgreSQL characterization reproduced the unknown-ID hold through
actual recovery, cleanup verification and run-control cancellation. It
models a lost acquisition response; it is not a live provider or
complete IPC test. No source edits were made by the audit. The
upper/composition audit remains required after its review cycle.

## Risks

- Recording a replacement result now commits with the existing cleanup
notification. This conditional replacement path adds
transaction/notification responses; common retained startup is
unchanged.
- This adds cleanup and recovery state handling. A missing receipt or
permanently inaccessible old backend can keep ownership held
indefinitely. Temporary outages retry; an ordinary retry is not evidence
that a deleted or replaced backend stopped.
- A caller timeout does not undo work already accepted by a plugin.
Unknown resource creation remains unresolved until its identity/outcome
is established. Current task creation has no supported
inspect-by-operation or operator reconciliation API for a permanently
lost identity; repeated Stop alone cannot resolve it.
- The support code understands records produced by the dependent
activation PR. It does not enable the shared startup policy by itself.
- Existing legacy callers must retain their behavior; context-only
automatic replacement cleanup remains explicitly scoped.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family. The exact model ID and context window are
not exposed in this session. Tool-assisted implementation, targeted
testing, and independent subagent review.

DottaandPaperclip 66e8fab944 fix: complete native chat responses and improve API discovery (#18364)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip must perform work and report its outcome accurately.
> - A chat response and its delegated or operator-owned work are
separate stages.
> - Native chat contracts instead required literal completion of the
user's whole request.
> - Agents kept searching or waiting even when a truthful handoff should
finish the response.
> - OpenCode also has separate acknowledgement backlog and
empty-response failure paths.
> - This PR aligns chat completion with its current stage and makes
OpenCode completion truthful.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18098 for retained OpenCode evidence and #18377 for separate eval
setup, oracle and reporting repairs.

**What happened?** Real pinned OpenCode 1.18.34 reproduced an MCP
timeout behind 800 text fragments. Pilot
[41222196525](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41222196525)
separately exposed a fabricated successful reply after a reasoning-only
response. Later restart attempts timed out without an answer. Their
native criterion literally required restarting the instance, although
the chat instructions and authority required an operator handoff.
General authority guidance alone did not resolve it.

**Expected behavior:** A standing chat completes its current authorized
response. It performs and verifies permitted actions, verifies delegated
handoffs, or explains the specific unavailable action and operator path.
The worker's task remains separate. Ordinary execution tasks must still
complete their requested work. Empty provider responses must not become
invented success.

**Version and reproduction:** Actual pinned OpenCode and native Rust
Runner, with retained full-stack AWS attempts. Product baseline master
`51ea624344`. This PR adds no historical catalog to master.

## What Changed

- Build standing-chat completion contracts from the server-owned
conversation identity. Scope each current request to the response stage;
preserve request text, criterion IDs, order, human-response scope and
source revisions. Require verified authorized actions and truthful
handoffs. Ordinary task contracts stay strict. Existing admitted inputs
retain their saved contract during recovery; new contract content uses
the existing revision/hash mechanism.
- Guide prospective defaults to their owning resource and preserve
existing work unless backfill is requested. Guide unavailable
board/operator operations to the supported handoff. These are general
chat instructions with no eval identities or expected answers.
- Batch adjacent assistant text for at most 50 ms and 4,000 UTF-8 bytes.
Preserve text, metadata and order; flush before non-text frames and
shutdown.
- Give an empty OpenCode response one correction within its existing
turn, model, reasoning, context and deadline. Accept actual completed
answer parts with incomplete headers. Preserve actual active tool work,
bound idle evidence grace and fail truthfully if correction stays empty.
- Reject empty OpenCode terminals in Rust without actual prose or an
accepted semantic result. Never invent successful replies or evidence.
Refresh generated project-discovery contracts.
- Preserve accurate public API-discovery descriptions for existing
project defaults and managed instance restart operations, including
their field scope and authority limits.

## Verification

**Qualified: [pilot
41256592937](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41256592937)
passes 3/3, with all 35 independent checks passing.**

| Case | Checks | Full case duration | Evidence and cleanup |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Instance restart | 9/9 | 140.1 s | complete |
| Project defaults | 11/11 | 204.2 s | complete |
| Project work | 15/15 | 204.0 s | complete |

All three are original-attempt results from source
`c51e079f7f2364305b131ffd549e263ff78c5335`, containing the exact product
files from `13c2b61f31d873a475ea0c3c026b19926ff42301`. Actual saved
conversation contracts were inspected, as were ordinary native worker
contracts where present. Each protected archive includes the actual API
state and final PNG; cleanup completes. Original queries,
`openrouter/deepseek/deepseek-v4.1-flash-1017`, finite case clocks,
concurrency one and zero eval retries are preserved. Earlier passes do
not transfer into this qualification.

Both current heads pass all checks: product **62** (56 success, one
neutral, five skipped), catalog **56** (54 success, one neutral, one
skipped). Both have exact-head Greptile **5/5**, zero unresolved review
threads and clean mergeability. The three trusted private-evidence
protocol files remain byte-identical to the dispatch workflow. Raw
evidence stays protected.

- **2,044 API discovery tests pass.** Red controls showed that “restart
instance” selected unrelated drain/settings operations and “save project
defaults” selected repository replacement. Accurate public summaries now
rank the existing operations correctly; route registration preserves
descriptions. No endpoint, permission or field behavior changes.
- **112 real-database, authenticated HTTP, native Runner and OpenAPI
consumer tests pass locally**, using disposable task-owned Docker
PostgreSQL. It was removed afterward; shared IPC was untouched. These
cover persisted contract selection, admitted native input and the model
envelope together. The isolated CI suites also pass.
- **77 focused contract/input/context tests pass.** Red controls catch
the wrong conversation predicate; canonical identity requires both agent
and user IDs, including the actual heartbeat projection. Ordinary tasks,
agent-only issues and planner tasks remain strict. Coalesced requests
preserve criterion identities, source hashes and human-response scope.
- **144 OpenCode driver tests pass**; native core **441 pass, one
ignored**; packaging **56 pass, six skipped**. Server typecheck and
build pass.
- Real pinned OpenCode/native Runner: a delayed 25-second
acknowledgement completes within the original 30-second MCP deadline.
The text-fragment control changes 817 notifications / 54.1 seconds /
timeout to 45 / 19.0 seconds / accepted finish. Separate fast,
six-minute and real authenticated API probes complete 32 tool calls plus
finish. These do not reproduce every remaining historical MCP timeout,
and no common cause is claimed for all such failures.

Retained failures remain attributed to their original source. Earlier
runs exposed fabricated empty-response success, prospective-default
backfill, a literal whole-task chat criterion, fixture readiness and
oracle/reporting defects. The immediately preceding
[41250502608](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41250502608),
product `c0bf249807` / source `7b1de24ce1`, is **1/3**: work 15/15;
restart 4/9 with the repaired contract actually admitted but no answer;
defaults timed out before settlement, then exceeded the unchanged 256
MiB original-evidence allowance. Defaults domain behavior on that
attempt remains inconclusive. #18377 retains the full attempt ledger,
including missing archives and pre-paid cancellations. The fresh 3/3
establishes these selected outcomes; it does not establish full-catalog
reliability.

## Risks

The shared contract change applies to standing native chats across
providers. It changes model instructions and completion scope, while
permission, approval and review gates remain enforced by their existing
owners. Incorrect model claims remain possible; the product evals
independently require actual mutations, native work and delivery. The
correction adds at most one provider request within the existing
deadline; text batching can delay adjacent text by 50 ms. Three
qualified attempts do not establish full-catalog reliability.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with repository inspection, tool use, code
execution and live eval tooling. Exact hosted model revision and
context-window size are not exposed.

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

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

**Subsystem affected**

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

**Current behavior**

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

**Proposed behavior**

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

**Reason and benefit**

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

**Breaking changes**

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

**Additional context**

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


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

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

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


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

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

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

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

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

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

run `31d168c9-7ab9-4700-abb6-fafb90912237` failed the same strict
suspension error before outage 2. Its row selected a new native
identity, but no new third provider process or invocation was observed.
Recovery-time configuration still reset only `adapterConfig`; native

Original 60/300/420-second limits and strict queued/second-replacement
checks remain unchanged. Direct-process path; no new live prepared-task

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

Implementation and initial verification used OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex;
the initial hosted snapshot was not exposed. The follow-up qualification
used three OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` workers coordinated through Codex, with
repository tools, code execution, CI and scoped test infrastructure.
Context-window size is not exposed.

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

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

**Problem or motivation**

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

**Proposed solution**

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

**Alternatives considered**

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

**Roadmap alignment**

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

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

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

**Problem or motivation**

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

**Proposed solution**

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

**Alternatives considered**

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

**Roadmap alignment**

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

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 6da112ab40 perf: avoid flushing separate Git cache seed archives (#18308)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages work done by AI agents.
> - Native sandbox runs prepare a workspace before the agent can
respond.
> - A shared seed cache avoids repeated Git copies and archive
preparation.
> - Cache publication also flushes a branch-neutral Git seed that is
separate from recovery archives.
> - This cache can be rebuilt. Each reader checks the archive bytes
before reuse.
> - This change omits that separate cache file flush and measures the
remaining preparation gaps.
> - The benefit is less work before agent execution and clearer timing
evidence.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18240.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Workspace seed cache publication and latency diagnostics for native
sandbox preparation.

**Current behavior**

Publication flushes both cache archives to disk under the company lock.
Slow storage can delay the publishing run and cache readers. A cache hit
also combines private copying, hashing, and last-used bookkeeping in one
span. Early controller preparation has gaps before environment
selection.

**Proposed behavior**

Keep the existing flush for recovery-backed workspace and Git archives.
Omit the flush only for a separate branch-neutral Git cache archive.
Reject an alternate cache file that is the recovery file or its
hardlink. Keep archive checksums, private copies, atomic publication,
quotas, and company locking. Measure cache read steps and the existing
early preparation operations.

## What Changed

- Skip the flush only for the separate branch-neutral Git seed used by
the company cache.
- Preserve the existing flush for recovery-backed archives, including
hardlink storage. Reject cache-only files that alias recovery bytes
before or during publication.
- Add a regression with a blocked cache-only Git flush. The deployed
code waits; the new code publishes verified cache bytes without waiting.
Test storage failure for both recovery-backed archives and same-path,
hardlink, and replacement alias cases.
- Add cache copy, hash, and bookkeeping spans beneath seed lookup.
- Add timing around existing agent, conversation, runtime, issue,
identity, trust, and task context preparation. Keep their execution
order.
- Update the trust-order guard to recognize the timed call while
continuing to assert trust resolution precedes workspace selection and
credential setup.
- Document the cache contract and the new spans. Keep the old flush span
in the allowlist for compatibility with older observations.

## Verification

- The blocked-flush regression fails on the old code and passes with
this change.
- Focused tests (`vitest run` on the six affected cache, timing, and
native-sync suites) cover cache corruption, private-copy integrity,
quota and eviction races, branch binding, per-run recovery, native
workspace synchronization, trace parentage, and tracing disabled or
failing.
- 115 focused tests and both typechecks pass after rebase on current
master. The tests include recovery storage failures and an archive
replaced with a recovery hardlink during verification.
- All seven trust tests pass with the actual service and migrations,
using a fresh database on an existing local PostgreSQL server. The local
embedded server could not allocate host semaphores, so only its test
startup helper was substituted; assertions and service code were
unchanged.
- A real SDK export with a retained public seed verifies that cache-read
detail spans have the lookup as their parent. The endpoint-off control
produces no spans.
- Current revision `28dea63432d462cad160906f8dfc2d21c81d3446`: all 53
checks pass, two optional checks are skipped, Greptile is 5/5, and no
review threads are open.
- No new staging latency claim is made by this PR. Hosted measurement
remains necessary after delivery.

## Risks

A crash or power loss can discard the cache-only Git seed. A later read
rejects missing or corrupt cache bytes and prepares the workspace again.
Recovery-backed archives retain their previous flush behavior. The
change adds no flush to warm per-run persistence. Hashes and
private-copy checks remain required. The new spans use the existing
opt-in exporter and closed names; they record no task content.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 61bd4ac691 feat(agents): set up Antigravity with saved Google subscriptions (#18189)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and their work.
> - Users choose providers and managed accounts while adding agents.
> - Antigravity was missing from the ordinary additional-agent picker
and its saved Google path did not complete native readiness.
> - A user needs a successful Test, an enabled task action, and a stable
account binding.
> - This pull request connects the ordinary setup flow to the native
candidate.
> - It also preserves retired credential refreshes across database
failures and server restarts.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Built on merged #18188 and #18187. Refs: #12503, #14938 for related
legacy CLI proposals.

**Agent or provider**

Google Antigravity ACP 1.4.3.

**Why this adapter is useful**

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

**How the agent is invoked**

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

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

**Expected behavior**

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

**Steps to reproduce**

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

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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

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

## Thinking Path

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

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

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

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Agent timer heartbeat scheduling in the server.

**Current behavior**

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

**Proposed behavior**

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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

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

## Thinking Path

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

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

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Issue-monitor scheduling and idle database use.

**Current behavior**

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

**Proposed behavior**

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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

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

## Thinking Path

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #17793, #17717.

**What problem does this solve?**

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

**What is the proposed solution?**

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

**What alternatives have you considered?**

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

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

## What Changed

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

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

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

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

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

## Verification

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

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

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

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

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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

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

## Thinking Path

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

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

**What happened?**

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

**Expected behavior**

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

**Steps to reproduce**

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

**Paperclip version or commit**

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

## What Changed

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

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

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

## Verification

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

- **3,129 distinct cases in 37 complete server files pass**, plus **18
selected chat-response cases** (3,147 selected cases). The other 1,796
chat cases were not run locally. Full settlement, queue, scheduling,
run-state, goals, interactions, task Retry, decision targets, status
reassessment, workspace, process recovery, and review consumers are
covered.
- **Preserved failure:** the first 35-file command passed 2,445 cases
and timed out one restored-work handoff at its existing 15-second limit.
That aggregate command failed. The unchanged full 89-case actions file
then passed on a fresh fixture; the affected case took 22 ms. Root cause
was not established. No timeout or assertion changed. The 34 other files
passed originally. Distinct counts exclude duplicate actions passes.
Fresh CI remains a separate gate.
- **Indirect wake regression:** the original unconditional baseline
failed two quiet checks. Guards alone left the chat case failing with
three candidate queries. The final controlled indirect baseline fails
one of four cases; the repair passes all four with the same test hash.
Positive controls preserve real company-only producers.
- **Source and fixture controls:** all 38 selected test files restore to
their exact committed hashes after fixture imports. Fresh PostgreSQL 17
fixtures use 413 migrations. All five manual merge resolutions preserve
current authority, locking, and event-column contracts.
- **Static checks pass:** database build; server typecheck and build;
module boundaries; migration order; Copilot profile identity. Runner
packages equal the accepted parent byte for byte. No new Runner/package
qualification is claimed.
- [Current integration and wake
audit](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/b256bb52647affd9f5279ea8c40f48bbe40f031f/doc/plans/2026-10-26-external-conversation-settlement-sleep.md#current-master-integration-and-indirect-wake-audit-2026-10-29).
Latest-head CI and exact-head Greptile 5/5 must pass before merge.

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

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

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

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

Current head: `83204a67880d980cfbea3771cee19a3cda0022b7`. This remains a

## Risks

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

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

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

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

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

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

## What Changed

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

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

## Verification

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

## Risks

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

50fe32684d fix(server): wake committed native run projection from durable changes (#17752)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A native run has separate result acceptance, task decision, run
status, and resource settlement steps.
> - A task decision can commit before its run status is saved.
> - Recovery currently revisits committed decisions through the periodic
orphan pass.
> - This PR gives the existing run projection repair its own
transaction-driven worker.
> - Existing records reconstruct unfinished work after restart.
Completed history becomes quiet.
> - Other completion and resource obligations keep their existing
recovery paths.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17748 (stack parent: accepted-result commit), #17734 (workspace
finalization), and #17717 (retained session cleanup). Related #17614
preserves terminal notifications. This slice is prepared on current
parent #17748 at `b2efdb2dbbbef5b2227ffa2bd2a9a6cfe3867fe2`; the parent
has merged as `28e38da7e6bdd6af4092dda56bc2be05bed47af5`.

**Current behavior**
The native recovery pass revisits committed decisions to repair the
heartbeat-run status and metadata. A crash between decision and run
writes creates real work, but periodic scanning also revisits retained
history.

**Proposed behavior**
Wake projection repair after committed producer changes. Reconstruct
mismatches on startup and settings activation. Retry concrete failures
through the shared scheduler. Keep the run projection before resource
settlement.

**Reason and benefit**
The repair worker performs no recurring SQL after its work settles. A
real decision, effect settlement, or ownership release reactivates it.
This is one worker migration; it does not establish host or database
suspension.

## What Changed

- Extract the existing projection predicate and write into their
native-runtime owner. The finalizer keeps initial metadata enrichment
and task decision authority.
- Discover accepted, committed, mismatched run projections with company,
issue and run bindings. Exclude pending status effects and held runner
ownership. Read narrow fields instead of whole result payloads.
- Use existing transaction hints, scoped delivery scheduling, failure
backoff and lifecycle handling. Add no tables or per-feature timers.
- Require issue/run scope for ordinary finalization fanout. Routine
company-only hints leave dormant projection quiet; explicit settings and
dedicated producer signals keep their existing contract.
- Connect finalization, pending effects, lifecycle status writes, issue
changes and worktree execution activation. Preserve outer transaction
commit and rollback behavior.
- Lock the current run before deciding which terminal event and
completion time to save. Concurrent live and recovery projection must
not announce the same transition twice.
- Delegate only already-committed projection from the periodic pass. Its
candidate scan uses the same pending predicate to defer remaining
consequences and cleanup until projection finishes.
- Add real PostgreSQL producer, race and lifecycle tests plus an owner
audit.

## Verification

- Current local source `a83b9449233a275176e637c765059f414305d7c1`
incorporates the parent with a normal merge. All 1,208 parent-only,
seven owned-only and ten automatic shared paths are preserved. The only
manual conflict keeps new projection fanout inside the ordinary
issue/run guard. The complete package tree matches parent profile 80
byte-for-byte.
- Controlled real-database regression: the original projection-only
unscoped fanout produces three candidate SELECTs for routine company
hints. The same zero-query assertion passes with scoped fanout. A real
committed result then repairs the run and emits one terminal event
before returning to quiet. Production bytes restore exactly in both
phases. Twenty cases outside that focused pattern are not counted as
passing there.
- The complete main command passes **1,830 cases in 19 files**, without
skips, in 301.14 seconds. It includes all 21 projection cases, 85
startup cases, required quality review and heartbeat run lifecycle, plus
physical-work and result-commit consumers. Separate process recovery
passes 410 in 163.58 seconds and external-chat response passes 273 in
53.26 seconds. Total: **2,513 distinct passes in 21 complete files**,
with no skips. Normal merge `d4b46fd29cb23126d556cc3aeb883e6b41f1a8a5`
adopts the actual parent squash with this entire tested child tree
unchanged.
- Production server typecheck, build, module boundaries, migration order
and source identity checks pass. Seventeen dedicated PostgreSQL 17
databases use the unchanged migration 413 schema. Embedded-only calls
use the existing fresh-per-call recovery helper. All temporary imports
restore byte-exact and all 21 selected test hashes match after
completion. No assertion or timeout is relaxed.
- Parent package acceptance remains applicable: 130 passing
installation/compatibility/transport cases, 22 installed ACPX/Grok
contract cases and 26 native-provider Rust cases. One pre-existing
opt-in closed Pi snapshot case is skipped because its distribution root
is not configured. No live provider qualification is claimed.
- The owner audit at
`doc/plans/2026-10-26-native-run-projection-sleep-audit.md` retains
prior failures and their disposition. Current-head acceptance: all 57
checks are clean, including protected CI and security. Greptile gives
5/5 on `a49a2dac13b0e1c19da5d3d6b435c781703b1c0b`, with no actionable
findings. Old scores do not substitute. No Ponytail verdict is present
under the authorized missing-review policy.
- These checks do not claim a full local repository suite, deployed
suspension, expanded Cloud wake coverage or measured cost savings.

## Risks

- Process-local signals cover instrumented application writers.
Independent SQL writers and replicas without supported ingress are not
newly covered. Durable startup reconstruction remains enabled.
- Projection must precede remaining committed resource settlement. The
real reconciler test proves the periodic path defers cleanup while
projection is pending and resumes it after repair.
- Status decisions, external conversation settlement, watchdog
resolution, Muse reconciliation and resource release keep their own
authority and recovery. A committed result alone is not proof of
completed cleanup.
- Candidate discovery uses narrow bounded pages. There is no large-fleet
performance or deployed sleep claim. Existing Cloud wake coverage and
sleep blockers remain unchanged.
- Parent #17748 has merged. This PR targets master at
`28e38da7e6bdd6af4092dda56bc2be05bed47af5`. Current-head CI and review
must pass before the authorized protected merge.

28e38da7e6 fix(server): wake native result commits from durable work (#17748)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and preserves their results through
failures.
> - Native completion must save workspace output before it commits the
accepted result.
> - The orphan recovery pass repeatedly revisits this work even when the
subsystem is idle.
> - Accepted results, workspace receipts, retry dates and leases already
provide durable truth.
> - This PR wakes a scoped worker from those writes and schedules only
real unfinished work.
> - It preserves existing finalization authority and keeps later
projection and resource recovery separate.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17734 and #17717. This is slice 53 of the existing sleep stack,
targeting master after parent #17734 merged at
`a019d00a393b57f531afe8dd8ab0b8a1820d1c4c`.
A current search found no duplicate accepted-result commit PR.

**What problem does this solve?**
Native accepted-result recovery currently depends on periodic orphan
scanning. Quiet instances keep doing work to discover that no result
needs a commit.

**What improvement do you propose?**
Use the shared delivery coordinator with transaction-bound producer
signals. Reconstruct unfinished results at startup. Preserve saved retry
and lease deadlines. Remove only uncommitted-result execution from the
periodic pass.

**Why is this useful?**
The accepted-result worker becomes quiet with no work or retained
completed history. Real results and completed workspace operations
reactivate it without a polling delay. This does not claim that the
whole server or database can sleep yet.

## What Changed

- Track the initial result-commit sweep through shutdown without
blocking HTTP readiness on recovery locks.
- Keep ordinary company-only finalization hints from reconstructing
dormant result work. Existing company settings and dedicated owner
signals remain supported.

- Add a native result-commit worker. Bind candidates by company, issue,
run, accepted result and a successful workspace receipt. Exclude
committed, terminal, held and pending-effect work.
- Signal both accepted-result writers and workspace receipt writes
before their transaction changes. Extend the existing finalization
fanout for retry, lease, effect and completion transitions.
- Add an optional atomic due-date check to the existing finalizer claim.
A lease collision or later retry does not consume a failed attempt.
- Signal native retry cancellation so it removes the saved wake after
commit.
- Register through the existing heartbeat suppression and shared
delivery lifecycle. Preserve outer commit/rollback, drain/resume,
settings activation and shutdown behavior.
- Delegate only uncommitted-result execution from the periodic orphan
pass. Keep committed projection and resource settlement recovery
enabled.
- Add real producer/lifecycle tests and a detailed audit. No new tables,
provider branches or per-feature timers.

## Verification

- Current local source `2af88fa55f961a74340880240019f6cd31e21bf1`
incorporates the parent with a normal merge. All 1,203 parent-only, nine
owned-only and 12 automatic shared paths are preserved. The only manual
conflict keeps the new result fanout inside the existing ordinary
issue/run scope guard. The complete package tree matches parent profile
80 byte-for-byte.
- Controlled real-database regression: the original result-only unscoped
fanout produces three candidate SELECTs for routine company hints. The
same zero-query assertion passes after restoring the scoped fanout. A
real workspace receipt and accepted result then commit exactly one
decision and return to quiet. Red and green restore production bytes
exactly. Twenty cases outside the focused pattern are not counted as
passing there.
- The complete main selection passes **1,746 cases in 16 files**,
without skips, in 277.97 seconds. This includes all 21 result-worker
lifecycle cases and 82 startup cases, including held result recovery,
HTTP readiness and shutdown joining. Separate process recovery passes
410 cases in 162.42 seconds and external-chat response passes 273 in
53.41 seconds. Total: **2,429 distinct passes in 18 complete files**,
with no skips. Normal merge `998239b019defe52e7b5d64f884de4e871ccd736`
adopts the actual parent squash and preserves this complete tested child
tree.
- Production server typecheck, build, module boundaries, migration order
and source identity checks pass. Fifteen dedicated PostgreSQL 17
databases use the unchanged migration 413 schema. Embedded-only calls
use the existing fresh-per-call recovery helper. All temporary imports
restore byte-exact, and every selected test hash matches after
completion. No assertion or timeout is relaxed.
- Runner validation belongs to the unchanged parent package tree: 130
passing installation/compatibility/transport cases, 22 installed
ACPX/Grok contract cases and 26 native-provider Rust cases. One existing
opt-in closed Pi snapshot case is skipped because its distribution root
is not configured. This does not claim live provider qualification.
- Earlier Greptile 4/5 on `656f6722be1aedf3d52b7f853956e15838204278`
correctly identified startup blocking on result recovery. The prior
branch `108cf0dc8296bf451b721ddac55ecbcd035d00f0` already tracks its
ready promise through the existing lifecycle owner. Current full startup
acceptance verifies the fix in the merged context. The later Greptile
service error is not a pass; current-head acceptance now passes: all 57
checks are clean, including protected CI and security. Greptile gives
5/5 on `b2efdb2dbbbef5b2227ffa2bd2a9a6cfe3867fe2`, with no actionable
findings. No Ponytail verdict is present under the authorized
missing-review policy.
- The owner audit at
`doc/plans/2026-10-26-native-result-commit-sleep-audit.md` retains
earlier failures and their disposition. These checks do not claim a full
local repository suite, deployed app/database suspension, expanded Cloud
wake coverage or measured cost savings.

## Risks

- Process-local signals cover instrumented application writes in the
owning server process. They do not cover independent SQL writers or
another replica without supported ingress. Durable startup
reconstruction remains enabled.
- The initial native decision and its run projection are separate
transactions. The periodic reconciler still repairs already-committed
results and releases resources. This PR must not be used to infer that
committed means fully settled.
- Candidate discovery adds bounded, narrow reads at startup and after
signals. No large-fleet query benchmark is claimed.
- Existing Cloud alarm coverage, host sleep safety and resource blockers
are unchanged. No deployed sleep or savings claim is made.
- Parent #17734 has merged. This PR targets master at
`a019d00a393b57f531afe8dd8ab0b8a1820d1c4c`. Fresh current-head CI and
review remain required before merge.

a019d00a39 fix(server): wake native workspace finalization from committed work (#17734)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native runs can accept a result before workspace copy-back finishes.
> - The periodic orphan pass repeatedly tries this recovery, including
cases that require operator action.
> - Copy-back needs exact ownership evidence. A generic timer cannot
grant that authority.
> - This pull request wakes workspace recovery from committed changes
and local owner completion.
> - Saved retries use the existing scheduler. Empty work, completed
barriers, and operator holds become quiet.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17717. This is slice 52 of the recurring-server sleep stack,
targeting master after parent #17717 merged at
`4c56702e06c698cc10d4a86514669aba0f4d9a9b`. Related work: #17709 (status
reassessment), #17687 (unsafe export recovery), and #16478 (workspace
repair holds).

This PR covers native workspace copy-back and validation. Result
commit/projection and resource settlement remain separate recovery
duties. It does not claim full-instance sleep.

## What Changed

- Register a company/run/task-scoped workspace worker. Reconstruct
accepted, unfinished work from existing records. Use saved retry and
lease deadlines.
- Notify from both accepted-result writers (control-plane and PRP
coordinator), workspace receipts, coordinator changes, operator
confirmation, retained workspace repair, and relevant task updates.
Notifications follow the outer transaction.
- Distinguish active local ownership, busy external ownership, pending
Cloud evidence, operator-required evidence, and changed bindings. Only
concrete external ownership/evidence waits receive a scoped retry.
- Preserve advisory locks, signed stop proof, exact binding checks,
physical callback joins, and existing failure policy. Join physical
operations during shutdown.
- Respect the existing heartbeat execution-suppression policy before
discovery and execution; wake suppressed work on settings activation.
- Skip physical workspace recovery in the enabled periodic orphan pass.
Keep direct/startup reconciliation and the remaining result/cleanup
recovery paths.
- Keep routine company-only finalization hints quiet. Ordinary work
requires issue/run scope; explicit settings and owner-release events
keep their company-wide contract.
- Preserve the parent's entire Runner/package tree, profile 80 and all
historical identities. Add the dated obligation, producer, lifecycle and
limitation audit.

## Verification

- Current local source: `4059b24e3ea5c623be54ade18ec9b6ab78eb0289`,
prepared by a normal merge of the current parent. The sole manual
conflict keeps ordinary workspace fanout inside the existing issue/run
guard. All 1,198 parent-only, 15 owned-only and 10 automatic shared
paths are preserved. The complete package tree matches the parent
byte-for-byte.
- Controlled regression: the original workspace-only unscoped fanout
performs three candidate SELECTs for routine company hints. The same
zero-query assertion passes with scoped fanout. A real accepted result
then produces one successful workspace settlement and returns to quiet.
The failed baseline remains in the audit.
- The first complete local group passes **1,693 cases in 14 files**,
including all 19 workspace-worker cases. It covers both accepted-result
producers, physical ownership, export retry/failure, finalization
recovery, arbiter corpus, issue recovery actions, control-plane port,
workspace recovery, heartbeat recovery, startup, retained cleanup and
native execution.
- Separate process-recovery and external-chat response files qualify the
changed recovery/settlement paths without sharing their general test
database with other files. Both pass in full: 410 process-recovery cases
in 162.79 seconds and 273 external-chat cases in 53.79 seconds. The
total is **2,376 distinct passes in 16 complete files**, with no skips.
Normal merge `5c46c52873158529736b8349e4d44658865108ee` adopts the
parent squash with this entire tested child tree unchanged.
- Production server typechecking, build, module boundaries, migration
order and source-profile checks pass. Thirteen dedicated PostgreSQL 17
fixtures use the unchanged migration 413 schema. Embedded-only paths use
the existing recovery helper with fresh per-call fixtures. All temporary
imports are restored byte-exact. No test assertion or timeout is
relaxed.
- Runner validation belongs to the unchanged parent package tree: 130
passing installation/compatibility/transport cases, 22 installed
ACPX/Grok contract cases and 26 native-provider Rust cases. One existing
opt-in closed Pi snapshot case is skipped because its distribution root
is not configured. These are source-scoped checks, with no live provider
qualification claim.
- The owner audit at
`doc/plans/2026-10-26-native-workspace-finalization-sleep-audit.md`
preserves earlier failures and their disposition. Current-head
acceptance: all 57 checks are clean, including protected CI and
security. Greptile gives 5/5 on
`7df5c9c44ea9e171be3c61b4430d3727b10f3337` with no actionable findings.
Earlier scores do not substitute for this result. No Ponytail verdict is
present under the authorized missing-review policy.
- No claim of a full local repository suite, deployed app/database
sleep, expanded Cloud wake coverage or measured cost savings is made.

## Risks

- Supported wake producers are in-process application services. This
adds no cross-replica or independent SQL-writer transport.
- A real unresolved export still needs recovery. Busy owners and pending
Cloud stop evidence retain a 30-second scoped check. No timeout
authorizes copy-back.
- Result projection and resource release still use their existing
recovery. Some existing cleanup failures remain best effort; this PR
does not infer cleanup success from a workspace barrier.
- Cloud alarm coverage and host-sleep safety remain unchanged. No
deployed suspension or cost savings have been measured.
- Parent #17717 is merged. Current base is master at
`4c56702e06c698cc10d4a86514669aba0f4d9a9b`. Fresh current-head CI and
review must pass before this slice merges.

4c56702e06 fix(server): schedule retained native-session cleanup (#17717)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native runs can retain a local session after an interrupted durable
suspend.
> - The orphan reaper repeatedly scans completed history for that
cleanup duty.
> - Idle scans keep the database active. Removing them requires complete
wake and ownership paths.
> - This pull request moves retained-session cleanup to committed
signals, local release events and saved deadlines.
> - Existing physical proof checks still decide whether cleanup is safe.
The shared scheduler does not grant execution authority.
> - The benefit is quiet retained history with recoverable cleanup and
owned shutdown.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17709 and #18135. This is slice 51 of the existing
recurring-server sleep stack. Both referenced dependencies have merged.
The target is `master`.

**What happened?**

The periodic orphan pass scans retained native sessions even after their
cleanup is complete or no automatic action is safe. Some eligible
sessions also depend on a local session, environment lease or original
maintenance callback releasing ownership. An earlier decision
notification can be consumed before the run's later terminal projection
commits.

**Expected behavior**

Reconstruct existing work at startup. Wake from committed writes and
actual owner release. Register the saved claim expiry or a probe for a
specific live process. Stop recurring discovery when no obligation
remains. Preserve original callback ownership and all existing cleanup
proof checks.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Retain completed native runs with a durable-suspend close failure.
2. Let the periodic orphan pass run with no new work.
3. Observe repeated cleanup discovery. Separately, delay terminal
projection after its decision notification is consumed and observe the
missing cleanup wake.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Parent #17709 at reviewed head
`3b75f4bc1da1370304f069fc287af3d693575716`, landed as
`df6156c2e37f542a69f393dde31e357b82b7cac1`. Current integrated master:
`31b927e3013a8a4b3266854b740cf40a24753788`.

## What Changed

- Move scoped, paged discovery to the retained cleanup owner. Preserve
explicit manual recovery.
- Register the duty with the shared scheduler and remove it from the
periodic orphan pass. Keep concrete lease expiry and live-process probe
obligations.
- Use typed outcomes for settled/refused work and process, session,
environment, maintenance or lease waits. Keep physical proof and
quarantine decisions in the executor.
- Wake from committed finalization and terminal projection writes,
durable process/lease release, and local session or callback settlement.
Routine company-only finalization hints leave dormant cleanup quiet.
- Join duplicate cleanup and serialize inspections on one database lane.
Keep original Runner callbacks owned until settlement and shutdown.
- Preserve all master profile fixtures and the branch's historical
identities. Save the colliding sleep profile 79 separately. Generate
combined Copilot profile 80 from its source and retain master's other
provider profiles.
- Add the owner audit and regression coverage. No new table, migration
or independent maintenance timer is added.

## Verification

- Server acceptance: **2,342 distinct passing cases in 18 complete
files**. The 14-file unaffected group contributes 1,532 passes. Full
startup contributes 76, process recovery 410, environment service 51,
and external-chat response 273. The 29-case cleanup worker suite and
977-case executor suite run in full. No case in these files is skipped.
- Controlled scope regression: removing only the ordinary finalization
issue/run guard wakes dormant retained cleanup; the same assertion
passes after restoring it. A real local owner release still resumes the
durable candidate.
- Preserve the first broad failure: 1,607 passed and one startup
shutdown case failed because the coordinator mock lacked `stop()`. Add
only that mock method. All 76 unchanged startup cases then pass. Do not
treat the first broad command as green.
- Dedicated PostgreSQL 17 databases use the existing migration 413
schema. Embedded-only fixtures use the existing recovery helper with
fresh per-call databases. All temporary imports are restored byte-exact.
No assertion or timeout is relaxed.
- Current-master integration preserves both complete source histories.
The server, UI and database trees are identical to the server-tested
source. All master historical profile fixtures remain byte-exact. The
prepared sleep profile 79 remains independently inspectable.
- Current runtime validation at
`d08f764e3efe75e96929173afe7ee8739121ad9f` passes all 12 commands (22
installed ACPX/Grok contract cases and 26 native-provider Rust cases):
`pnpm install --frozen-lockfile --ignore-scripts`; Copilot/Grok identity
and generated profile checks; Runner and server typechecking; server
build; Copilot/Pi installation, profile compatibility and transport
settlement files (130 passed; one opt-in closed Pi snapshot case skipped
because its distribution root is not configured); installed ACPX
model/reconnect package contract and Grok identity tests; Rust
native-provider backend tests; module boundaries and migration order.
- Earlier 94-case installation/settlement acceptance applies to the
prepared profile 79 source. It is retained as history and does not
substitute for the current profile 80 validation above.
- Failure history and duty-specific evidence remain in
`doc/plans/2026-10-26-retained-native-session-cleanup-sleep-audit.md`.
Exact-current-head acceptance: all 60 checks are clean, including
protected CI and security; Greptile gives 5/5 for
`281d579de0d08e907194b8b790a0597b07d16b7b` with no actionable findings.
No Ponytail review is present under the authorized missing-review
policy.
- These checks do not claim a full local repository suite, live Copilot
or Daytona qualification, deployed host/database suspension, or measured
cost savings.

## Risks

- Missing a supported producer could strand cleanup. Tests exercise real
finalizer, heartbeat, environment and process writers. Process-local
signals cover in-process writers; no multi-replica or external SQL
notification transport is added.
- A timeout can leave an original callback active. Cleanup and shutdown
must keep waiting for it. The existing global maintenance drain is
conservative across roots.
- A retained live process still has a scoped 30-second absence probe. A
saved lease keeps its actual deadline. Operational errors retain retry
work. Immutable proof refusals and operator-required histories do not
gain automatic retry authority.
- Cleanup keeps all existing artifact, identity, claim, no-launch and
quarantine checks. Terminal status alone does not authorize physical
cleanup.
- This PR does not expand Cloud alarm coverage or relax host sleep
eligibility. It proves worker behavior, not deployed app/database
suspension.
- The Copilot source identity has changed; these checks do not claim new
live provider qualification.
- The parent has merged. This PR is merged only after its current-head
protected CI and review gates pass under the existing campaign
authorization.

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

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

**What happened?**

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

**Expected behavior**

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

**Steps to reproduce**

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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

79ce86630a fix(server): schedule governed review response recovery (#17702)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents, tasks and their external chat responses.
> - A completed chat turn can owe a response while an earlier review
gate remains pending.
> - Periodic recovery revisits that response history even when no work
can advance.
> - This change uses the existing delivery coordinator and saved retry
deadlines.
> - Approval, interaction and authority changes wake the affected issue
or run after commit.
> - The existing presentation owner verifies the durable result and
current authority.
> - Settled and dormant history becomes quiet without losing future
eligible responses.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17696 (merged) and #15625. This is slice 49, now based on master.
It owns governed-review response presentation. Accepted responses and
pending decision effects keep their existing owners.

**What happened?**

Native finalization recovery repeatedly inspects committed review
responses. Removing the scan without covering approval, interaction,
task-policy and authority changes would strand responses that become
eligible later.

**Expected behavior**

Recover an owed response once from existing durable facts. Enforce
authority at publication, wake after relevant outer transactions commit,
retain real retry deadlines and restart/drain recovery, and stop
recurring SQL when no response can advance.

**Steps to reproduce**

Complete an external chat turn while an earlier completion review
remains pending. Block its response behind an approval or interaction,
then resolve that blocker. The response must appear once without a
periodic scan or resolving the original review gate.

## What Changed

- Add a scoped governed-review worker using the existing coordinator,
finalizations, decisions and comment receipts. No queue table or
transaction wrapper is added.
- Keep recovery and publication policy in the native finalizer. Preserve
binding, source/session authority, ownership, deadline and
deleted-comment fences; match coordinator-before-issue lock ordering.
- Notify through actual approval, interaction, OAuth, task-policy and
lifecycle producers before their owned writes. Serialize approval
resolution with task linking so a concurrent link retains its wake.
Nested transactions still settle at outer commit.
- Scope ordinary milestones, finalization and coalesced input to their
issue/run. Use the explicit company authority boundary for genuine
global restoration, including membership changes. Both response workers
share this boundary.
- Register under maintenance and drain gates, disable the two periodic
repair entrances, and retain fresh finalization and explicit recovery.
Add the concurrent 0413 comment-receipt index and migration
registration; retain five snapshots.
- Preserve the producer inventory, source qualifications and earlier
failures in the owner audit. Retain a real Photon regression proving
routine ownership assertions stay quiet and concurrent authority
restoration wakes each worker once.

## Verification

- Scoped repair source `2341714720b5c273f0ce011b48345af0ef39227f` passes
**2053 distinct cases**: 1703 in 15 complete producer/authority/recovery
files, including all 273 governed-response cases and 95 wake-queue
adapter cases, plus 350 selected chat cases. Another 1463 chat cases are
outside that selection. Thirteen fresh PostgreSQL 17 fixtures migrate
through unchanged 0413; the one temporary queue-fixture import restores
exactly. All sixteen captured hashes match.
- Two actual repeated coarse-hint SQL regressions fail before repair and
pass afterward. Actual membership restoration passes before and after.
The same assertions and time limits prove dormant work stays quiet and
real authority restoration still publishes once. Real coalesced input
covers both queues after commit.
- Combined source `586f5674cd9798b33cd22437255e0480b5726d20`, including
independent master #18129, passes **1297 distinct cases**: 1093 in five
complete server files, 185 in five runner files, 14 Node protocol cases
and five UI registry cases. This includes the complete 22-case Photon
file for both response workers. The external Photon transport is mocked;
Paperclip callbacks, transaction fences and observed SQL are real. The
earlier and combined case counts are separate, with no cumulative
double-counting.
- A normal merge retains both complete owned and independent master
binary patches. All twelve new-context hashes and sixteen earlier repair
hashes match. Three dedicated fresh 0413 fixtures plus the live-event
helper's own fresh database use PostgreSQL 17 without source
adaptations. Database build, server types/build, boundaries, full-SHA
migration order and generated TS/Rust profiles pass. The new inherited
Runner vendor inputs rebuild successfully.
- Database bytes remain identical to the previously qualified 0413
source. The recorded populated 0412-to0413 upgrade retains all 411 prior
receipts and 38 companies, appends one receipt and none on replay; the
index is valid and ready. The earlier 2828-case acceptance, CLI journey,
setup failures and their repairs retain their recorded source scope in
`doc/plans/2026-10-26-governed-review-response-sleep-audit.md`.
- Parent #17696 merged with 58 clean checks, Greptile 5/5 and Ponytail
5/5. Its Photon warning was disproved by real callback/SQL evidence and
the security check became successful. This PR still requires its own
fresh exact-head CI and review gates. No deployed sleep, external alarm
or fleet savings claim is made.

## Risks

- Notifications use the existing process-local writer contract.
Independent SQL writers and uncoordinated replicas are outside its
coverage.
- Genuine startup and company authority reconstruction remain
proportional to the owed backlog. Queries page 100 rows, but discovery
accumulates the candidates; this is not a constant-cost global
operation.
- Current publication authorization, durable binding, ownership and lock
ordering remain mandatory. The worker does not resolve the original
review gate.
- The concurrent index uses existing migration replay handling. Other
recovery duties and Cloud sleep eligibility remain separate.

## Model Used

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

ec3b558277 fix(server): schedule accepted native response recovery (#17696)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native runs store accepted results and their finalization decisions.
> - A completed run can still owe its public answer after an
interruption.
> - Periodic recovery scans for that answer even when no new work
exists.
> - This pull request wakes recovery from committed changes and saved
retry deadlines.
> - The existing owner still verifies the result, source, and current
publication authority.
> - Settled or dormant response work no longer needs its own periodic
scan.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17690 (merged). This is slice 48 of the sleep migration stack, now
based on master. Related: #17661 handles GitHub terminal publication;
this change handles native accepted-response presentation.
Governed-review presentation remains a separate duty.

**What happened?**

Native finalization recovery repeatedly checks already accepted results
for a missing answer. Removing that check without complete notifications
would lose responses when evidence arrives late, an agent resumes, or
admission settles after execution.

**Expected behavior**

Recover the answer from its saved result when a supported change makes
it eligible. Retain real retry deadlines. Stop querying when the answer
is selected or cannot currently be published. Reconstruct work after
restart.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Commit a native accepted result with no selected response comment.
2. Run finalization recovery while its source is unavailable or locked.
3. Restore that source or release the lock. The answer must appear once
without repeating provider execution.

## What Changed

- Honor recorded non-create decisions and skip-comment policy in both
discovery and recovery. Apply durable conversation/result/continuation
guards before recovery locks. Preserve genuine unanswered and legacy
recovery.
- Scope routine response wakes to the affected issue/run. Coalesced
input names its active run; pending-effect settlement names its issue.
Sixteen existing global authority/configuration hooks use one explicit
company invalidation boundary. No new transaction wrappers or tables are
added.
- Add an accepted-response worker using the existing delivery
coordinator and scoped deadline helper. Preserve saved retry deadlines
and pending-effect fences under the owner's lock.
- Share the finalization notification boundary. Wake on finalization
settlement, exact accepted-result/final-message evidence, agent
availability, retry admission, and existing chat authority changes.
- Keep lifecycle policy in services. A narrow pre-write status hook lets
lifecycle retain ownership of its transaction and status transitions.
- Register the worker during enabled maintenance startup. Remove its
authority subscription on shutdown. Periodic replay skips this duty on
both committed and fresh-commit paths; ordinary finalization and
explicit recovery retain their behavior.
- Add a partial index and expression statistics for unpresented native
runs. Migration 0412 supports concurrent replay and adds no queue table.
- Add real PostgreSQL and lifecycle coverage. Preserve the
implementation and producer audit in the plan document.

## Verification

- Additional real Photon callback acceptance on the published production
code disproves the security warning: ten active assertions cause zero
response-recovery hints/SELECTs, while three concurrent assertions
during an actual attention-to-active recovery cause exactly one
wake/SELECT. The existing locked status guard already enforces this
boundary. No production change was needed; the resolved finding now has
a successful current-head security check. The regression will be
retained with the next slice.
- Eligibility repair source `892f36e5f66ba1af123034936a7160c64c3ab883`
passes **1489 distinct server cases**: 1139 in six complete
recovery/finalizer/monitor/summary/workspace suites (81.02 seconds),
plus 350 selected chat cases (297.68s). Another 1463 chat cases are
outside the pattern; the complete 1813-case file is not claimed. All
eleven new regressions are included in that count. Five dedicated fresh
PostgreSQL 17 databases migrate through unchanged 0412, with no
fixture-source adaptations. Database build, server types/build,
boundaries and full-SHA migration ordering pass. All seven test source
hashes match.
- The exact published baseline first fails eight behavioral assertions
while the three genuine-answer cases pass. The same corrected test
source passes all eleven after repair: recorded none/reuse remain
suppressed; five ineligible history families take zero recovery row
locks across repeated issue hints; missing/legacy/create-null answers
still publish once; fresh periodic finalization defers presentation to
its worker. Earlier fixture setup and variable/compiler failures remain
explained in the audit, rather than erased by later success.
- Repair source `2fc8b0614aaf9ac7337045de4ced7325f95edc45` passes **1821
server cases**: 1496 in 13 complete producer/lifecycle/authority suites
(110.63 seconds), plus 325 selected chat cases (278.99 seconds).
Coverage includes all native-session cases, queue admission, status
decisions, membership/board access, the complete GitHub workflow,
accepted-response lifecycle and real authority restoration. The other
1477 chat cases are outside this selection; the complete 1802-case file
is not claimed for this repair run.
- Actual PostgreSQL regressions first reproduce a coalesced-input hint
missing its run scope and two routine hint paths producing 12
response-history SELECTs each after three notifications. The same
assertions pass with run-scoped coalescing and zero response-history
SELECTs for unscoped routine hints. Actual membership restoration still
publishes the waiting response once. Assertion time limits are
unchanged; this measures real driver SQL and persisted producer work.
- Eleven dedicated fresh PostgreSQL 17 databases migrate through 0412.
One embedded-only wake-queue fixture import temporarily uses its own
external database and restores byte for byte. All 14 selected source
files match pre-run hashes. This qualifies external-database behavior
rather than reproducing embedded CI locally.
- Master advanced independently with #18126's Pi archive retry fix.
Normal merge `2a535bc61259ef99387369e8b32498f774e5ba2c` preserves both
complete binary patches. All accepted server/database/UI/test/CLI trees
stay identical; the three independent runner installer/manifest files
are retained. All 13 installer tests pass, including stalled header/body
cancellation. Combined server types/build, boundaries and full-SHA
migration order pass. A subsequent normal merge of #18128 at
`e8b78cce5bb557b086bee9ca930eeaab1d09b244` retains its three test-only
file changes with both complete patches preserved. The changed HTTPS
backfill case passes on a fresh PostgreSQL fixture (1 selected case; 178
outside the pattern), and combined types/build, boundaries and migration
order pass again. All 14 repair source hashes remain unchanged. The
independent browser fixture changes are preserved; no local browser run
is claimed.
- The earlier source `9feec170ef8174011fc3c5d3d6d76f0a0f39fea0` passed
the 4171-case full baseline before this scope repair. That scope is
preserved in the audit rather than represented as a current full rerun.
All 0412 database bytes remain unchanged: original concurrent
index/statistics/ANALYZE, prior executable history, journal entries and
retained snapshots. Five snapshots 0408 through 0412 remain. The
populated 0411-to0412 upgrade preserved 410 prior receipts and 38
companies, appended one receipt and none on replay; index/statistic
checks passed.
- The earlier P2 security failure, Greptile's former conditional
dependency on #17702, and the subsequent actual Ponytail eligibility
findings are recorded in
`doc/plans/2026-10-25-native-response-presentation-sleep-audit.md`. This
PR now includes the issue-scoped pending-effect notification fix itself,
so it is independently correct before #17702. Fresh published-head CI,
Greptile 5/5 and a clean security scan remain required. No
deployed-sleep, external-wake or fleet-savings claim is made.


## Risks

- The writer contract is process-local. Independent SQL writers and
other replicas are not covered by these notifications.
- Unpresented backlog reconstruction still has memory and time cost
proportional to candidate count. Pages contain at most 100 rows;
execution uses the shared fair batch. Selected history is excluded.
Health-only signals do not trigger reconstruction.
- Publication policy remains with its current owner. Digest, company/run
binding, source authorization, selected-answer suppression, and
ownership fences remain required.
- The rest of native recovery and governed-review presentation still run
separately. This PR does not relax Cloud sleep eligibility or add
external wake coverage.
- The stack parent has merged and its actual ancestry is reconciled.
This publication still needs fresh current-head CI and review.

## Model Used

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

a8a038e659 fix(server): schedule native pending effect recovery (#17690)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native status decisions store effect targets and a delivery ledger.
> - Historical pending or failed effects still need recovery.
> - The periodic finalizer queries that ledger even when work is
complete.
> - This pull request gives pending effects their own commit-driven
worker and saved deadlines.
> - Completed history becomes quiet while incomplete effects remain
recoverable.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17687 (merged). This is slice 47 of the sleep migration stack, now
based on master.

**What problem does this solve?**

Periodic native finalization repeatedly checks effect delivery. A tenant
with completed history should not perform recurring SQL for this duty.
Historical unresolved effects must still recover without duplicating
their targets.

**Proposed solution**

Reconstruct current pending effects at startup. Wake from committed
coordinator changes. Use the saved retry and ownership deadlines. Keep
the existing dispatcher as the only recovery mutation owner.

**Alternatives considered**

A slower unconditional scan still creates idle traffic. A new queue
table duplicates existing durable state. Replaying materialization can
duplicate effects. This change uses the existing ledger, transaction
signals, and shared scheduler.

## What Changed

- Add a scoped worker with 100-row discovery pages and fair 25-entry
dispatch batches. Delivered, superseded, and terminal-failure history
has no recurring scan.
- Preserve exact company/issue/run/decision binding and validate
materialized targets before settling effects. Recheck phase, saved
result, retry, and lease under the coordinator lock. Missing targets
retain recovery.
- Notify from decision replay, accepted-result recovery, coordinator
claim/retry/release, attention replay, and execution-control recovery.
Only two DB-only producer writes need a new transaction wrapper. Nested
transactions use the existing outer-commit boundary.
- Exclude pending-effect candidates from periodic finalization so it
cannot skip ahead of their owner. Keep explicit and startup recovery
behavior compatible. Respect maintenance disablement, drain, standby,
and shutdown.
- Add concurrent, idempotent migration 0411 with partial indexes for
pending effects and their current coordinator binding. Retain the five
newest schema snapshots.
- Document producers, query evidence, failure history, and scope in
`doc/plans/2026-10-25-native-pending-effects-sleep-audit.md`.

## Verification

- Source `ba38ee465df02b6026286b5d5e15ae49fe07a367` passes all 2284
distinct cases across 25 complete files, without skips. The main
selection passes 2225 in 203.94 seconds; safe-replacement passes 59 in
26.03 seconds. Coverage includes all 968 native-session cases, the
94-case status-authority/pending-effect corpus, actual decision/lease
producers, Stop, queue, interaction, reconstruction and Slack consumers.
The audit gives per-file counts.
- The complete 94-case corpus passes again on the same database in 16.03
seconds. Retained PSC/OUT rows and an unrelated sentinel remain
unchanged. The repeat is not counted again as distinct coverage.
- Twenty-one separate fresh PostgreSQL 17 databases migrate through 0411
before setup. Four embedded-only fixture imports temporarily use their
own external database on this IPC-exhausted host and are restored byte
for byte. Assertions and timing limits stay unchanged. This qualifies
external-database behavior; it does not claim an unmodified embedded CI
run.
- Database build, server typecheck/build, module boundaries and
exact-head migration order pass. Original runtime/schema edits and
unrelated upstream blobs are preserved. Both original concurrent index
statements, all prior executable history, journal entries and retained
snapshot bytes are unchanged; five snapshots 0407 through 0411 remain.
- Populated 0410-to0411 upgrade preserves all 409 prior migration
receipts and 38 companies, appends one receipt and adds none on replay.
Both indexes are valid and ready on fresh and upgraded databases.
- Adopting the latest prepared prerequisite changes ancestry and parent
audits only. All accepted core trees remain identical. The audit retains
earlier failures and qualifications. Actual landed-parent ancestry is
now reconciled; fresh published-head CI and exact-head Greptile 5/5
remain required. No deployed sleep, Cloud-wake or fleet-cost claim is
made.

- Current parent context: integration
`5f7cd7bc589ad0169dfb5f33df611ead56510ca3` changes only the parent's
GitHub observation bound and independent cleanup assertion. All
production code, packages and 25 accepted test files remain unchanged.
Both focused GitHub idle cases pass in 15.26 seconds and the complete
six-case cleanup suite passes in 8.47 seconds on two fresh 0411
PostgreSQL fixtures. This does not claim the full parent workflow was
rerun here.

## Risks

- A missing producer can delay work until restart. The audit covers
current supported writers. Independent SQL and other processes remain
outside the local notification contract.
- Recovery validates existing targets; it cannot recreate a missing
target or silently mark it delivered. Such work retains an error and
retry.
- The indexes add write/storage cost and use the existing restart-safe
concurrent migration runner.
- Other finalization duties still poll until their separate migrations.
This PR does not prove host/database suspension, extend Cloud alarms, or
claim fleet savings.
- The actual prerequisite squash is adopted through a normal merge. Its
complete tree equals the reviewed parent, and the complete accepted
child tree is preserved. Fresh published-head CI and review remain
required.

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

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

**What did you expect?**

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

**Steps to reproduce**

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

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

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

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

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

## Risks

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

DottaandPaperclip 73d24aa5ac fix(server): schedule automatic completion review retirement (#17680)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native finalization preserves accepted work and resolves task
status.
> - A historical cleanup removes automatic completion-review cards that
current policy no longer creates.
> - The periodic finalization pass repeats that lookup even after all
matching cards are gone.
> - This PR gives this cleanup its own committed hints and pending-card
retries.
> - The existing owner retains withdrawal receipts and protects genuine
reviews.
> - Idle history stops causing recurring cleanup reads.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17679. This is a separate stacked slice for automatic
completion-review retirement. Obsolete version-change reviews belong to
the parent PR.

**What needs to be improved?**

`reconcileNativeFinalizations` repeatedly discovers old automatic
completion reviews. The discovery helper also converts SQL errors to an
empty result, which would let a new event-driven worker forget failed
reconstruction.

**Why is this improvement important?**

Idle tenants should not query for absent cleanup work. Failed discovery
must preserve the retry, and removing a historical card must preserve
the durable trigger for later evidence reassessment.

**Proposed solution**

Use the existing card, decision, effect, assessment and contract rows.
Reconstruct candidates at startup, signal the existing decision commit,
and retry exact pending cards. Keep the direct cleanup call inside
active finalization. ROADMAP.md and the related native review work were
inspected; this change owns the scheduling migration only.

## What Changed

- Add automatic completion-review registration to the shared scoped
deadline worker. Reconstruct 100-row keyset pages and dispatch fair
batches of twenty.
- Signal company/issue IDs before the native decision transaction
writes. Keep outer-transaction settlement with the existing work-signal
boundary.
- Split raw discovery from the public helper's compatibility error
handling. Worker lookup failures propagate so the shared scheduler
retains dirty scope and retry.
- Reuse the complete historical predicate and existing withdrawal owner.
Recheck the selected card identity, payload and system author fields in
the conditional update.
- Preserve the withdrawal reason, chat publication, activity record,
direct finalizer call, startup/manual recovery, and subsequent evidence
reassessment.
- Skip only this duty in periodic reaping. Retain admission,
drain/standby, retry and joined shutdown.
- Add producer/lifecycle documentation. Add no table, schema migration,
provider branch or independent timer.

## Verification

- Current source `3f4d35ac0154aedc76cc39486d3758c73b1e6ff4`: all 462
cases across seven complete files pass with no skips in 49.31 seconds.
This covers both review workers through the real status-authority
corpus, startup/timing, recovery, finalization, external chat and
governed milestones. Nested corpus fixtures are not double-counted.
- Five separate fresh PostgreSQL fixtures migrated through parent 0409
before setup. Database build, server typecheck/build, module boundaries
and target migration order pass. The whole database source tree matches
the parent; no migration or table is added.
- Normal integration preserves substantive owned edits and unrelated
upstream blobs. Actual landed-parent ancestry and fresh current-head
Greptile 5/5 and clean CI remain required. This is worker and
integration acceptance, not deployed sleep qualification.

- The inherited P2 fix changes only two fixture prefix values. All
production code, other fixtures, assertions and timing limits are
unchanged. The full 72-case corpus also passes again on the same
database in 12.95 seconds. Retained PSC/OUT rows and an unrelated
sentinel remain unchanged after both runs. The repeat is not
double-counted among the 462 distinct cases. The parent audit retains
the original collision and rejected cleanup attempt.

- CI correction: the 40f head fails the passive native-presentation
initial idle observation in chat shard 1. An unchanged local pair
passes. A controlled committed hint plus a 600 ms held run attempt makes
the original one-second observation fail; the identical probe passes
with the established five-second observation bound. This demonstrates
the coalescing boundary, not the unrecorded exact CI token timeline. No
unchanged-head CI retry was used.
- The probe is removed. The only permanent code change is that initial
poll bound. It still requires zero active work and no deadline, followed
by two minutes with no SQL, transaction or provider writes. Production
code, worker/business deadlines, rollback and committed-settlement
assertions are unchanged. All 274 cases in the named GitHub agent-review
workflow pass in 232.06 seconds. Other cases in the large file are
outside that named selection. The earlier 462-case selection retains
identical source. Both owning audits preserve the failure and scope
limits. Fresh updated-head CI and reviews remain required.

- Master integration: independent master
`49fe8b87a49aa5a8985a08dd3d5ce57bdd24756c` adds one company-skill
cleanup assertion. A normal merge preserves both complete binary
patches. All production code and the accepted GitHub integration file
are unchanged. The full six-case cleanup-removal suite passes in 8.16
seconds on fresh PostgreSQL. Database history is unchanged.

## Risks

- A normal native decision can cause one scoped lookup even when it
creates no historical card. It retains no periodic scan when settled.
- Startup reconstruction cost scales with historical data and joins. No
constant-cost or fleet-savings claim is made.
- Process-local signals cover instrumented writers. Independent SQL
writers and concurrent older controllers need explicit integration.
- Retirement and status reassessment are distinct obligations. The
existing durable withdrawal receipt and remaining finalization owner are
preserved.
- Failed withdrawals retain retries while exact pending cards remain. A
database lookup failure must not be interpreted as completion.
- Other finalization and recovery duties remain. Cloud wake coverage and
host-sleep eligibility are unchanged.

## Model Used

tests. The runtime does not expose a more precise model ID or
context-window size for this turn.

DottaandPaperclip dfd5b1ac62 fix(server): wake obsolete policy review cleanup from commits (#17679)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native finalization repairs saved results and related task state.
> - Its periodic pass also searches for obsolete policy-review cards.
> - Those cards have a precise historical signature and existing durable
rows.
> - This PR gives that cleanup its own committed signals and
pending-work retries.
> - The existing owner still protects real reviews and later task
changes.
> - Settled review history no longer causes repeated cleanup queries.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17677. This PR is stacked on cancelled workspace preservation. It
owns only obsolete policy-review cleanup within the native finalization
reconciler.

**What needs to be improved?**

Every periodic native finalization pass queries for old version-change
review cards, even after all such cards are gone. The parent reaper
combines this cleanup with unrelated finalization and recovery duties.

**Why is this improvement important?**

Empty queries prevent idle tenants from becoming quiet. Removing the
query must preserve historical repair, real review requests, task status
authority, and cleanup after a failed write.

**Proposed solution**

Reconstruct matching pending cards at startup. Signal the existing
native decision transaction before its writes. Schedule bounded cleanup
only while an exact card remains pending. Skip this duty in periodic
reaping while keeping startup and manual entry points. ROADMAP.md and
related PR search found no duplicate of this migration.

## What Changed

- Register obsolete-review cleanup with the existing scoped deadline
worker. Reconstruct in 100-row keyset pages and process fair batches of
twenty.
- Use company/issue hints from the existing status-decision commit
boundary. Serialize only the two IDs; preserve outer commit and
rollback.
- Reuse the exact historical signature and existing cleanup owner. Keep
status-version, decision-pointer, separate-review, activity and
chat-publication guards.
- Recheck selected payload and system-card identity in the conditional
withdrawal so a concurrent edit cannot be cancelled from a stale
snapshot.
- Retain a 30-second retry only while a matching pending card survives.
Preserve drain, standby, startup and joined shutdown.
- Skip only this duty in the periodic finalization pass. Automatic
completion reviews, unsafe exports, status effects, evidence
reassessment and workspace finalization remain separate migrations.
- Add the owner audit and validated external-test database support for
the existing status-authority corpus. Add no schema, table, independent
timer or provider branch.

## Verification

- Current source `4cc0d03ae96bd92a4fdad44168c2a8647d42466c`: all 443
cases across seven complete files pass with no skips in 46.46 seconds.
This covers the full status-authority corpus and cleanup worker,
startup/timing, heartbeat recovery, native finalization, external chat
and governed milestones. The audit gives per-file counts without
double-counting fixtures inside the corpus matrix.
- Five distinct fresh PostgreSQL fixtures migrated through parent 0409
before setup. Database build, server typecheck/build, module boundaries
and target migration order pass. The whole database source tree matches
the parent; no migration or table is added.
- Normal integration preserves substantive owned edits and unrelated
upstream blobs. The earlier circular notification-payload failure
remains in the audit. Actual parent
`51c3f8924cb0bd5fe7cbda15ad9b8f06a6a11055` is reconciled through a
normal merge, with its full tree equal to the reviewed ancestor and the
entire accepted child tree unchanged. Fresh current-head Greptile 5/5
and clean CI are still required. No deployed sleep qualification is
claimed.

- Review correction: the old head reproduces a fixed-prefix collision on
a same-database corpus rerun. The initial deletion attempt passed
assertions but failed teardown on non-cascading audit foreign keys; it
was removed. The final two-value change uses each fixture company UUID
in its prefix and changes no production behavior, assertions, timing
limits or teardown.
- The complete 56-case corpus passes a second time on the same database
in 10.15 seconds. Retained PSC/OUT rows and an unrelated sentinel
company remain unchanged after both runs. The repeat is not
double-counted among the 443 distinct cases. The audit retains both
failures and their causes. Fresh CI and Greptile are required for the
updated head.

## Risks

- Startup reconstruction still scans historical candidates and joins;
its cost scales with history. Scoped commits use existing indexes. No
recurring query remains after this worker settles.
- The signal covers instrumented single-process writes. Independent SQL
writers and concurrent older controllers need explicit integration.
- A normal native decision can cause one scoped lookup, even when it
creates no obsolete review. It does not retain a periodic scan.
- Failed withdrawals retain retries while matching cards remain. Actual
cleanup still uses the existing locking, authority and activity owner.
- Other finalization duties still run. This PR does not establish
whole-instance quiet, external alarm coverage, provider suspension or
fleet savings.

DottaandPaperclip 51c3f8924c fix(server): schedule cancelled workspace preservation (#17677)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A cancelled native run may still owe preservation of prepared
workspace files.
> - The existing recovery receipt and source lease record that
obligation.
> - The orphan reaper still searches for these cancellations on every
pass.
> - This PR registers committed cancellations with the shared deadline
worker.
> - The existing retention owner keeps file pinning and ownership
checks.
> - Idle and completed history no longer causes this preservation scan.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17674 and #17145. Stopped instruction collection is merged into
master. It owns file-preservation discovery only. The existing
environment cleanup worker continues to own stop-only teardown.

**What needs to be improved?**

`preserveCancelledNativeWorkspaces` runs from every orphan-reaper pass.
It queries even when no cancelled native workspace needs a file-recovery
hold. Current foreground Stop can also defer retention after a lock or
database failure, so startup-only recovery would be insufficient.

**Why is this improvement important?**

Empty queries keep idle tenants active. Removing them must not lose user
files, weaken Stop ownership, replay cancelled work, or turn a retained
allocation into destructive cleanup.

**Proposed solution**

Register the existing durable obligation from committed run-status,
cancellation-acknowledgement and workspace-reference writes. Reconstruct
it at startup. Keep retries while actual preservation remains
unresolved. Disarm after the existing owner records the hold. Related-PR
search and ROADMAP.md review found no duplicate of this scheduling
migration.

## What Changed

- Add a company/run-scoped preservation worker with 100-row keyset
reconstruction and fair batches of five.
- Separate pending file debt from immediate coordinator/lease readiness.
Retain a 30-second retry for known unfinished preservation and shared
failure backoff for errors.
- Signal the existing status, acknowledgement, workspace-reference,
deletion and settings transactions. Add no table or independent timer.
- Keep exact source checks, no-workspace contracts, task/coordinator/run
lock order, retention receipt and no-replay recovery card with their
owners.
- Recheck cancellation acknowledgement, run status and coordinator phase
under the retention locks. Preserve the existing foreground preterminal
API.
- Keep startup/manual recovery; skip only this duty in periodic reaping.
Preserve drain/standby and shutdown behavior.
- Add concurrent, replay-safe partial index migration 0409 and retain
the five newest snapshots.
- Add the producer and lifecycle audit in
`doc/plans/2026-10-25-cancelled-workspace-preservation-sleep-audit.md`.

## Verification

- Current source `21b46a8e4293ca670235117458b984493a181759`: all 1472
cases in 16 complete files pass without skips. The owner passes 84 cases
in 14.93 seconds. Fifteen consumer files pass 1388 cases in 133.46
seconds, including all 968 native-session cases and Stop, dispatch,
restart, workspace-sync and upgrade-readiness coverage.
- Twelve separate fresh PostgreSQL 17 databases migrated through 0409
before setup. The embedded-only lifecycle fixture temporarily used its
own external database on this IPC-exhausted host and was restored byte
for byte. Assertions and timing limits stayed unchanged. This qualifies
external-database behavior; it does not claim an unmodified embedded CI
run.
- Database build, server typecheck/build, module boundaries and
exact-head migration order pass. The complete original runtime/schema
patch and unrelated current-parent blobs are preserved. Original
concurrent index SQL, all earlier executable history and retained
snapshot bytes are unchanged; five snapshots 0405 through 0409 remain.
- A populated 0408-to0409 upgrade preserves all 407 prior receipts and
38 companies. Exactly one receipt is appended; replay adds none. The
preservation index is valid and ready on fresh and upgraded databases.
- Actual parent `82529741418e138d9d623bf13d2fa22c1ff79d36` is merged
through a normal ancestry reconciliation. Its complete tree equals the
reviewed parent. The entire accepted child tree and all source hashes
are preserved. The audit retains earlier failures, qualifications and
per-file counts. Published head
`b34f0589847f33754ecde9413fd36bf007353d2c` has Greptile 5/5 and all 57
checks passing or skipped. No Ponytail review is present. These checks
do not establish deployed host/database suspension or Cloud alarm
delivery.

## Risks

- Signals cover instrumented single-process writers. Independent SQL
writers and additional replicas need integration.
- Status signals may inspect a run without relevant file debt once. They
do not create recurring work. Discovery and memory still scale with
actual candidates.
- Missing ownership or stop evidence remains pending. Active retries are
intentional while a concrete file obligation is unresolved.
- Retry timing is process-local; startup reconstructs durable debt. The
worker does not overwrite another native-finalizer deadline.
- Admitted database operations may finish after drain begins. Shutdown
joins them. Provider teardown remains with the existing cleanup owner.
- The partial index adds storage and write cost. Its concurrent
migration uses the existing interrupted-index repair path.
- Cloud alarm coverage, sleep eligibility and host suspension are
unchanged. This proves worker behavior, not fleet savings.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, shell tools, and PostgreSQL
tests. The runtime does not expose a more precise model ID or
context-window size for this turn.

DottaandPaperclip 8252974141 fix(server): schedule stopped instruction collection (#17674)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Runs can stop while their private instruction edits still need
collection.
> - Existing copy rows and stop evidence describe that unfinished work.
> - The orphan reaper still queries for it on every maintenance pass.
> - This PR activates collection from committed copy and run
transitions.
> - It uses saved retry deadlines when stop proof or collection remains
pending.
> - Active copies and completed history no longer cause collection
polling.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17671 and #17670. Both prerequisites are merged into master.
Captured saves and post-save release remain separate reasons with their
own workers.

**What needs to be improved?**

`recoverStopped` queries instruction copies on every orphan-reaper pass,
even when no terminal run owes collection. A run can become terminal
without changing its copy row, so copy-only notifications would miss
real work.

**Why is this improvement important?**

Repeated empty queries prevent idle tenant instances from becoming
quiet. Removing them must preserve edits, stop proof, current ownership,
and recovery after restart.

**Proposed solution**

Use the existing transaction signals, scoped deadline worker, and
scheduler. Reconstruct eligible copies at startup, signal supported copy
and terminal-run writers, and retain saved retry deadlines for
unresolved work. Preserve the existing collection and directory owners.

Related PR search found the warm agent-file ownership work (#14695),
verified stop boundary (#14311), and task-workspace cleanup (#16464).
This PR does not replace those contracts. ROADMAP.md has no duplicate
migration.

## What Changed

- Add scoped stopped-instruction collection with keyset reconstruction
and fair batches of 20.
- Signal before copy preparation, mutation and adoption writes, and
before terminal run writes in their existing transactions.
- Cover heartbeat, native finalization/restart/session recovery,
execution-control, queue and dispatch producers.
- Signal settings changes and company/agent deletion. Preserve drain,
standby, restart and shutdown ownership.
- Recheck terminal-run eligibility in the due-time claim. Keep terminal
status separate from process-stop proof.
- Retain existing stop checks, attempt limits, saved candidate bytes and
remote-resource fencing.
- Skip only this lane in periodic orphan recovery. Preserve
manual/startup recovery.
- Add concurrent, replay-safe partial index 0408 and retain the five
newest snapshots. Add no table.
- Record the owner and producer audit in
`doc/plans/2026-10-25-stopped-instruction-collection-sleep-audit.md`.

## Verification

- Source `cb2818a8f46ef961f744977a258f0e9042e31a42`: all 1469 cases
across 14 complete files pass without skips in 141.69 seconds. This
includes all 968 native-session cases, filesystem saves, startup,
terminal-run producers, dispatch, queue, execution-control, finalization
and lifecycle.
- Eleven separate fresh PostgreSQL 17 databases migrated through 0408.
The embedded-only lifecycle fixture temporarily used its own external
database on this IPC-exhausted host and was restored byte for byte.
Assertions and timing limits stayed unchanged. This qualifies
external-database behavior; it does not claim an unmodified embedded CI
run.
- Database build, server typecheck/build, module boundaries and
exact-current migration order pass. The original concurrent index SQL is
unchanged. All prior executable migration history, journal entries and
retained snapshot bytes are preserved; the five newest snapshots are
0404 through 0408.
- A populated 0407-to0408 upgrade preserves all 406 prior migration
receipts and 38 companies. It appends exactly one receipt. Replay adds
none. The collection index is valid and ready on fresh and upgraded
databases.
- The normal merge of actual parent
`267842fc3c6e6542deed8a1bcc2c78bec8df7862` preserves both complete
patches, all independent sidebar changes from #18117, and the full
accepted server/package/test trees. The complete sidebar test file
passes all 36 cases on the combined tree. React act warnings remain.
- Prior failures and fixture qualifications remain in the audit.
Published head `d176d731f083c7edd2ede688cb901d1e66d8f1d8` has Greptile
5/5, all 57 checks passing or skipped, and no unresolved review threads.
No Ponytail review is present. These local tests do not establish
deployed host/database suspension or Cloud alarm delivery.

## Risks

- Process-local signals cover instrumented writers. Independent SQL
writers and additional replicas still need integration.
- Terminal-run signals can cause one scoped inspection even if no
instruction copy exists. They do not create a recurring scan.
- Reconstruction and memory scale with actual pending candidates; active
candidates are filtered by the run join.
- Admitted file/provider operations can outlive a later drain request.
Shutdown joins them. Uncertain ownership remains pending rather than
being discarded.
- The partial index adds storage and write cost. Its concurrent
migration uses the existing interrupted-index repair path.
- Cloud alarms, sleep eligibility and provider suspension are unchanged.
Worker quiet is not a claim of deployed host/database sleep or measured
savings.

PostgreSQL/filesystem tests. The runtime does not expose a more precise
model ID or context-window size for this turn.

DottaandPaperclip 267842fc3c fix(server): schedule owed agent directory cleanup (#17671)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agent runs can save their directory before temporary-file cleanup
finishes.
> - The existing receipt records stop proof and unfinished cleanup.
> - The orphan reaper still searches for this debt on every maintenance
pass.
> - This PR activates cleanup from committed changes and saved retry
deadlines.
> - The directory owner keeps its resource checks and file lock.
> - Settled directory history no longer causes recurring cleanup
queries.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17670, the merged captured-instruction commit slice. This PR
targets master. It does not include stopped instruction collection or
change the saved-file contract from #14695.

**What needs to be improved?**

The post-save part of `recoverCaptured` queries directory copies on each
orphan-reaper pass, even after all temporary directories have been
released.

**Why is this improvement important?**

Empty database work prevents idle tenant instances from becoming quiet.
Cleanup must still survive a crash after a save and preserve files when
stop or resource ownership is uncertain.

**Proposed solution**

Use existing copy receipts as the source of truth. Notify the shared
coordinator inside relevant copy-write transactions. Reconstruct pending
work at startup and register each saved retry deadline. Keep physical
cleanup in the directory owner. Add a partial index over unfinished
cleanup rather than a new queue table.

Related-PR search found workspace archive and SSH task-workspace cleanup
changes (#17175 and #16464). They own different resources and do not
replace this stopped agent-directory receipt recovery. ROADMAP.md has no
duplicate migration.

## What Changed

- Add a scoped directory cleanup worker with keyset discovery and
batches of 20.
- Signal relevant copy transitions, company/agent deletion, and worktree
execution policy changes.
- Preserve the due-time claim, current receipt read, directory lock,
stop proof, and exact remote-resource checks.
- Read the receipt after release; a returned promise does not establish
cleanup completion.
- Keep unresolved cleanup on its saved retry or shared failure backoff.
Final receipts disarm the worker.
- Register the worker during startup and skip only this lane in periodic
recovery. Keep manual recovery compatible.
- Add concurrent, replay-safe partial index migration
`0407_greedy_star_brand.sql`. Retain the five newest schema snapshots.
- Add the producer audit and lifecycle evidence in
`doc/plans/2026-10-25-directory-cleanup-sleep-audit.md`.

## Verification

Published head: `210fcb1215a3b5e5ed84e420ddb73ab5952d9365`. Source
acceptance: `70a6800eea874bdb87685bf6eea66de79c48b577`. Parent #17670
landed as `b294de546bf9cd3a8578a7a66d7e8ec0eb939799`; normal
squash-ancestry reconciliation preserves the entire accepted descendant
tree. Final follow-ups change audits only.

- All 284 cases in six complete filesystem, startup and heartbeat owner
files pass, without skips, in 48.88 seconds. Four unused fresh
PostgreSQL 17 databases migrated through 0407 isolate destructive
fixtures.
- Three fixtures use supported external database paths. The
embedded-only lifecycle fixture temporarily uses its own external
database on this IPC-exhausted host, then is restored byte for byte. All
assertions and original timing limits remain unchanged. This qualifies
the local result; CI must still pass with the original embedded fixture.
- Actual database build, server typecheck/build, module boundaries and
exact-current migration order pass. The original concurrent idempotent
index SQL bytes are unchanged. All prior executable migration history,
journal entries and retained snapshots stay intact. The five snapshots
are 0403 through 0407.
- Populated 0406-to0407 upgrade preserves all 405 old receipts and all
38 companies, adds exactly one receipt and adds none on replay. The
cleanup index is valid and ready on fresh and upgraded databases. The
entire current database tree equals the source used for this proof.
- Both complete original and upstream patches are preserved. The actual
parent squash tree equals the already-adopted reviewed parent; resolving
eleven duplicate-ancestry text conflicts leaves the whole accepted tree
unchanged, not just selected files. Complete server, package, UI and
test trees still match the 284-case source acceptance.
- The audit retains earlier ownership, stopped-resource, receipt,
fixture and local-runner failures. The no-projects build filter was not
counted as a build pass; corrected actual build and complete reruns
passed before publication. Old draft review scores do not count for this
new head.
- Current-head Greptile gives 5/5 with no actionable findings, and all
57 checks pass. These checks establish worker behavior, not deployed
host/database suspension or measured savings.

## Risks

- Signals cover the existing single-process writer model. Independent
SQL writers and replicas need separate integration.
- The worker retains identifiers for actual pending work. Its index
excludes completed history but does not make large pending backlogs
free.
- File/provider cleanup can outlive an admission change once started.
Shutdown joins admitted operations. Unknown remote ownership remains
pending and no replacement environment is acquired for cleanup.
- The partial index adds storage and write cost. Its concurrent
migration uses the existing interrupted-index repair path.
- Cloud alarm coverage and host-sleep safety remain unchanged. This
establishes worker quiet, not deployed host/database suspension or
measured savings.

## Model Used

PostgreSQL/filesystem tests. The runtime does not expose a more precise
model ID or context-window size for this turn.

DottaandPaperclip b294de546b fix(server): recover captured instruction saves from committed deadlines (#17670)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A stopped run can leave captured instruction edits waiting for a
persistent save.
> - Existing working-copy records retain the candidate bytes, attempt
count, and retry deadline.
> - The orphan reaper scans those records on every heartbeat, even when
no save is due.
> - This PR wakes the existing save owner after committed changes and at
saved deadlines.
> - The worker preserves permissions, conflicts, and bounded retries,
then becomes quiet.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17667, the merged preceding PR in this recurring-server-work
stack. This PR targets master. Related warm-file ownership work: #14695.
Its process-stop and retained-directory guarantees remain with their
existing owner. The dedup search found no equivalent captured-save
scheduling migration.

**What happened?**

The commit portion of `recoverCaptured` runs inside the periodic orphan
sweep. Prepared copies, completed history, conflicts, and exhausted
candidates do not need repeated save discovery. A saved candidate does
need recovery after restart or a failed foreground save.

**Expected behavior**

Committed candidate changes reactivate recovery. The worker honors the
saved deadline and existing three-attempt bound. It stops querying after
settlement or deliberate conflict/exhaustion. Permission checks and
canonical save semantics remain in the revision service.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a server with heartbeat scheduling enabled and no captured save
pending.
2. Observe repeated pending-commit queries from the orphan reaper.
3. Capture edited instructions and fail their first canonical file
replacement. The durable candidate must be saved after its retry
deadline without starting a provider.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reviewed parent `405e533394b26215e22d0452e9b0207d3f784a79`. Actual
parent squash and current master baseline
`27270e9bf8b7a294cf03f8b84f4857f1b1ff05c7`.

**Deployment mode**

Self-hosted server with the existing single-process transaction signal
model. Local verification uses PostgreSQL 17 and actual managed
instruction files.

## What Changed

- Preserve foreground instruction-save ownership and its failure
deadline before recovery spends another attempt.

- Add a bounded captured-commit worker inside the instruction-copy
owner. Existing rows and deadlines supply its state. No new table,
migration, or external scheduler is added.
- Signal writes entering or leaving pending commit from the existing
copy mutation boundary. Only these writes gain a short transaction. File
collection, file replacement, and provider operations stay outside that
new transaction.
- Signal company/agent deletion and worktree execution setting changes.
Preserve drain, standby, startup reconstruction, shutdown join, and
uncertain-transaction handling through the shared coordinator.
- Guard attempt claims with current copy ownership and a still-due
deadline. A concurrent writer that postpones the retry wins without
consuming an attempt. Manual/startup recovery uses the same guarded
owner.
- Remove only captured commits from periodic reaping. Stopped collection
and the separate post-save directory cleanup sweep remain for later
slices.
- Add real producer, file, transaction, concurrency, and lifecycle
tests. Add guarded external test databases to the two filesystem suites
so they can run where embedded PostgreSQL is unavailable.

## Verification

Published head: `915ef6f20a68fffe89711cc97a6196521ea9885d`. Source
acceptance: `9fb75e508f06b05b740099403ce021a61e7c6603`. The actual
#17667 squash ancestry is recorded by a normal merge. Its entire result
tree equals the prior accepted descendant tree; the final commit changes
the audit only.

- All 268 cases in six complete files pass, without skips, in 41.89
seconds on the updated parent. Coverage includes captured saves,
directory consumers, startup, instruction-copy lifecycle boundaries,
recovery and run lifecycle.
- Four unused fresh PostgreSQL 17 databases migrated through parent 0406
isolate the destructive fixtures. Three use supported external URL
paths. The embedded-only lifecycle fixture temporarily uses its own
external database on this IPC-exhausted host, then is restored byte for
byte. Assertions and original timing limits are unchanged. CI must still
pass with the original embedded fixture.
- Actual database build, server typecheck/build, module boundaries and
exact-current migration order pass. Commands select each operation by
name. The earlier local no-projects filter error remains recorded and is
not treated as a build pass.
- The normal parent merge preserves both complete added/removed patches
and every unrelated upstream blob. The entire database subtree is
parent-identical, with no owned schema or migration changes. New parent
worker behavior has current consumer/startup acceptance here and
separate owner acceptance in #17667.
- Earlier foreground ownership, postponed deadline, attempt cap, drain
hold, fixture and skipped-test findings remain in the audit. The prior
head's Greptile 5/5, Ponytail 5/5 and green CI are historical after this
new publication.
- Current-head Greptile and Ponytail both give 5/5. All 58 checks pass.
Prior stacked-head scores are historical; the new published SHA requires
fresh gates. These checks do not establish deployed host/database
suspension or external wake delivery.

## Risks

- Signals cover supported in-process writers. Independent SQL writers
and other replicas require a separate ingress contract. Startup
reconstructs persisted obligations.
- Exhausted candidates stay preserved under the existing policy; the
worker does not increase retry limits or silently discard saved edits.
Database reconstruction failures retain shared backoff.
- Inventory pages scalar fields but retains candidate identifiers in
memory. The query-plan result covers completed history, not a
constant-cost promise for arbitrary exhausted-pending history.
- File saves can outlive a stop request once admitted. Shutdown joins
them. Exact-byte replay and current authorization remain with the
revision owner.
- Other instruction recovery duties and other stack blockers remain.
This PR does not prove host suspension, database suspension, or external
wake delivery. An ordinary protected merge is authorized only after
current review and CI gates pass.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, shell tools, and local
PostgreSQL/filesystem tests. The runtime does not expose a more precise
model identifier or context-window size for this turn.

Review follow-up: remove seven newly added comment lines to satisfy
CONTRIBUTING.md, preserving the explanations in the owning audit. Both
changed files retain the exact non-comment TypeScript token stream;
other source bytes are unchanged. The original cffe server-shard-9 run
ended after a runner shutdown signal and cancellation, without a final
assertion verdict; that failure is retained and not counted as a pass.
No old-head retry is requested. Fresh current-head CI and Greptile are
required.

DottaandPaperclip 27270e9bf8 fix(server): wake interrupted retry cancellation from committed intent (#17667)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A parked scheduled retry has no executor to finish an interrupted
Stop request.
> - Its saved cancellation fence already records the work that remains.
> - The orphan reaper currently scans for that work on every heartbeat,
including idle periods.
> - This PR registers the existing records with the shared delivery
scheduler and wakes recovery after committed writes.
> - Recovery keeps the existing cancellation guards and settlement
behavior, then becomes quiet.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17666, the merged preceding PR in the recurring-server-work
migration stack. This PR targets master. Related cancellation work found
in the dedup search: #12301 and #7340. This PR changes the trigger for
interrupted parked-retry cancellation; it does not replace their
cancellation or retry policies.

**What happened?**

The periodic orphan reaper queries scheduled retries with cancellation
fences even when no cancellation needs recovery. Its first-20-row scan
can also stop behind malformed evidence.

**Expected behavior**

Committed cancellation intent wakes bounded recovery. Failed work
retains a retry. Startup reconstructs durable work. Empty or settled
work performs no recurring SQL for this duty.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a server with heartbeat scheduling enabled and no interrupted
retry cancellations.
2. Observe the orphan reaper repeatedly query for cancellation fences.
3. Cancel a scheduled retry and fail the final status write after its
fence commits. Recovery must complete the existing Stop request without
running a provider or dropping its metadata.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Current parent squash `7afee8f0622e273d10506b0febfb68f143d168b1`. Source
acceptance `66107ae0a7ad85fd0476f91c4f8f98ae74a7a048`.

**Deployment mode**

Self-hosted server with the existing single-process transaction signal
model. Local evidence uses PostgreSQL 17.

## What Changed

- Add one domain-owned recovery worker over existing heartbeat run rows.
No new table. It delegates to run control and preserves original
cancellation, budget, and operator metadata.
- Signal cancellation fences, lifecycle transitions, dispatch
deferral/promotion/suppression, relevant settings changes, and deletion
within their owning transactions. Wrap only the ordinary database fence
in a short transaction; provider calls stay outside it.
- Keep startup/manual recovery compatible and remove this duty from the
periodic orphan sweep. Other reaper duties remain for separate PRs.
- Extend the shared scoped worker to retain pending work with a
memory-only admission retry while its owner is paused. Without pending
work, it schedules nothing. Existing GitHub consumers retain their
behavior.
- Add a concurrent idempotent partial index and lifecycle/producer
tests. Enable guarded disposable PostgreSQL URLs in affected test
harnesses.
- Reconstruct one hundred candidates per scope per scheduler pass.
Resume from the saved scope cursor and retain fair twenty-item execution
batches. Manual recovery starts cancellation before reading the full
backlog.
- Require the recovered browser reply to be saved before testing reload.
Keep all original assertions and time limits.
- Record the full producer audit, lifecycle limits, and failed attempts
in `doc/plans/2026-10-25-scheduled-retry-cancellation-sleep-audit.md`.

## Verification

Published head: `405e533394b26215e22d0452e9b0207d3f784a79`. Source
acceptance: `a35fa43b98e2bd378d4a920d2775ce243654838b`. The final commit
changes the audit only.

- All 363 backend cases in ten complete owner and consumer files pass
without skips. This includes actual Stop/retry producers, transaction
settlement, interrupted-write recovery, pause/resume, shutdown, fair
backlog processing and quiet after settlement. Seven separate fresh
PostgreSQL 17 databases prevent fixture interference.
- The two embedded-only backend fixtures temporarily use separate
external databases on this IPC-exhausted host. Their fixture imports and
native client teardown are restored byte for byte afterward. Assertions
and timing limits are unchanged. CI must still pass with the original
embedded fixtures.
- Two paging regressions fail on the prior worker and pass on the fix.
They cover cancellation before full reconstruction, a malformed first
page, fair batches, a newly committed intent behind the cursor, and no
later idle SQL. Per-candidate admission reads remain deliberate safety
checks.
- The repeated CI reload failure is reproduced with a temporary
twelve-second fixture settlement delay. The trace retains the same
five-second missing-reply assertion, even though a cleanup race masked
it in the top-level error. Requiring exactly one saved reply from the
resumed run passes under the identical delay. The fault is removed. All
six browser journeys pass on the final source in 40.5 seconds, with zero
retries and the original 120-second case and five-second reload limits.
- Browser acceptance uses the canonical CLI/server/static-UI path and a
fresh external database. Only fixture database-URI setup is temporarily
adapted and then restored. This is not an unmodified embedded
CI-environment reproduction. The six cases include the controlled case;
repeated runs are not added to the distinct count.
- Actual database build, server typecheck/build, module boundaries and
exact-current migration order pass. The database source tree is
unchanged from the verified 0405-to0406 upgrade: all 404 prior receipts
and 300 companies stay intact, exactly one receipt is added, replay adds
none, and the index is valid on upgraded and fresh databases. The five
snapshots remain 0402 through 0406.
- All earlier failures remain recorded in the audit. Prior head
`48b3fcb83f305616df02a4337a42ec0867bb4b80` had exact-head Greptile 5/5
but failed the repeated browser assertion. It was not retried blindly.
Its completed Ponytail review's backlog concern and old migration
paragraph are addressed here. Old scores do not satisfy new-head gates.
- Current-head CI passes. Exact-head Greptile and Ponytail both give
5/5, with no remaining actionable findings. These checks do not prove
deployed instance or database suspension.

## Risks

- Only supported in-process writers produce local transaction signals.
Independent SQL writers or other replicas need a separate ingress
contract. Startup reconstructs saved obligations.
- A real failure retains bounded retries. Unknown commit outcomes retain
the shared intent hold. Neither is discarded to report quiet.
- Per-owner drain uses a memory-only admission recheck. The shared
helper change affects existing consumers, which have focused regression
coverage.
- The partial index is concurrent and idempotent; it adds index storage.
Each scoped load reads at most one hundred rows. The shared helper
retains discovered pending IDs between passes, so a large unresolved
backlog still uses memory.
- Cloud alarms, idle-safety exemptions, and other reaper duties remain
separate. Merge requires passing current-head CI and review gates.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, shell tools, and local
PostgreSQL tests. The runtime does not expose a more precise model
identifier or context-window size for this turn.

DottaandPaperclip 567c043b17 feat(server): expose bounded hot-upgrade readiness (#18037)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip coordinates agent work and keeps its authority in the
server.
> - Remote native runners can preserve execution through a server
replacement.
> - Deployment operators need evidence that current runs support that
recovery.
> - Process-local drain counters do not establish this fact.
> - This PR adds an optional, operator-only readiness observation from
existing records.
> - A deployment consumer can use that report while the existing runtime
retains recovery authority.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17439.

**What happened?**

A deployment cannot distinguish recoverable remote native executions
from runs that require a task drain. The existing status endpoint
reports only process-local counts.

**Expected behavior**

An instance operator can request a bounded readiness report without
stopping admission or exposing checkpoint material. Missing ownership or
persistence evidence must prevent readiness. Ordinary status reads must
keep their current cost.

**Steps to reproduce**

Run a remote native task. Read the task-drain status. It reports active
work but supplies no recovery eligibility. Deployment code therefore has
no affirmative signal to select an active-run handover.

## What Changed

- Add `GET /api/instance/task-drain?upgradeReadiness=1` for instance
administrators and existing Cloud control callers.
- Return aggregate eligibility from current run identities, controller
leases and bound opaque checkpoint headers. Unknown work, pending
admission and incomplete reads prevent a positive report.
- Bound the explicit read to 1,001 rows, encrypted headers of at most
256 KiB each and 8 MiB total, and a two-second SQL statement timeout in
a read-only transaction. Keep ordinary status reads in memory.
- Add PostgreSQL, count-transition and route authorization tests. Update
the API contract, operator docs and access maps.

## Verification

- All seven readiness cases pass against an isolated PostgreSQL 18
fixture. They cover missing checkpoints, legacy adapters, missing
process/session identities, foreign owners, expired leases, missing
lease tokens, failure state and in-flight work. The positive SQL fixture
uses the real Runner checkpoint writer and encryption. Regular sandbox
workspace identity and plugin environment-lease identity are tested with
independent IDs. Stopped/released/undispatched plugin tasks and every
mismatched identity field are rejected. Local/legacy/malformed/oversized
or mismatched headers are rejected. A held PostgreSQL table lock proves
the two-second cancellation budget, rollback/connection release and
unrelated query responsiveness.
- All 123 focused readiness, instance-settings and Cloud control
assertion tests pass, including operator-only access and no readiness
read on ordinary status requests. Runner’s 168 checkpoint tests pass.
Runner and server typechecks pass after review fixes.
- Workspace typecheck, full build, module-boundary and map checks passed
locally before the master rebase. Current-head GitHub CI is now green,
including typecheck, build, all grouped/serialized server and Runner
tests, browser shards, policy and review-dispatch checks. Greptile
completed cleanly at 5/5 for `f15fb0c7e9dfb975090cd5d791a1c8e6701275f8`;
all actionable threads are resolved.
- The broad local test run was stopped after the macOS embedded
PostgreSQL fixture failed to bootstrap. The SQL test was then run on the
isolated PostgreSQL fixture. No assertion or timeout was weakened. One
unrelated existing route test exceeded its 15-second limit under
concurrent local builds; it passed on one isolated retry and the
subsequent whole route suite passed.
- Hosted active-run upgrade acceptance has not run. This PR supplies an
observation; it does not change rollout policy or establish live
continuity by itself.

## Risks

This is an instance-wide observation, so company members and agent keys
must not receive it. A readiness snapshot can age as work changes;
shutdown and startup retain their existing execution authority and
fencing. The report does not validate a replacement artifact or
authorize a schema migration. It decrypts only bounded headers through
the checkpoint owner and delegates format/identity inspection to Runner;
full journal restoration and physical sandbox authentication remain with
recovery. No migration, recurring query, new checkpoint write or wire
protocol change is included. The additive Runner header inspection
contract reuses its existing parser.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip f52da40f08 fix: resume queued turns after maintenance (#17967)
Keep an accepted turn's starting input in task history, show its admission wait, and resume existing queued runs promptly when maintenance ends or expires.

Verified with behavioral red/green regressions, real PostgreSQL and process execution, browser/native Runner acceptance with a deterministic provider, workspace typecheck, production build, and current-head CI/review.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 0b65926822 fix(heartbeat): preserve inherited policy after workspace binding (#17924)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Follow-up runs restore saved sessions when execution configuration
is unchanged.
> - A project can inherit workspace policy from its storage plugin.
> - The initial run resolves those defaults before it binds a workspace.
> - The first bound follow-up skipped that resolution and changed the
session fingerprint.
> - This pull request resolves the same effective policy before and
after binding.
> - Unchanged follow-ups keep their saved session and workspace.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A repository-backed project with no explicit workspace policy inherits
an isolated Git worktree policy from its storage plugin. After the first
run binds a workspace, the next run parsed only the raw project policy.
It dropped the inherited provider and strategy fields. Core treated this
representation change as a `workspaceConfig` change and discarded the
saved session, although the workspace had not changed.

**Expected behavior**

Binding a workspace must not change the effective project policy. Real
policy changes must still invalidate session compatibility. The
workspace must keep its recorded storage owner.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Install a default project storage plugin with isolated Git worktrees.
2. Create a project with a repository and no explicit workspace policy.
3. Run a task, then submit its first follow-up.
4. Observe a session reset for `workspaceConfig` despite an unchanged
workspace.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on master `50b932a142216331b8d476042b454bc123739c40`.
Related: #17447 fixed the separate source-free project case. A duplicate
PR search found no matching repository-backed fix.

## What Changed

- Resolve effective project policy for bound repository-backed
workspaces through the same company-scoped resolver as initial
admission. The source-free project guard remains.
- Add a PostgreSQL heartbeat regression covering initial binding, two
follow-ups, a real policy change, and retained provider ownership.
- Settle the synthetic adapter fixture as Done and reopen each explicit
follow-up. This prevents an automatic review-path recovery from hiding
the first bound admission.
- Add the verification recipe to the session feature map.

## Verification

- The new regression fails before the production change: the first
explicit follow-up receives `sessionId: null` instead of the saved
session.
- All six tests in
`server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-session-preparation.test.ts` pass after
the fix.
- A targeted run across that file and
`project-workspace-provider.integration.test.ts` passed 17 cases,
including inherited policy, model changes, incompatible explicit policy,
provider availability, no fallback after disablement, and retained
local/plugin ownership.
- Commands: from `server/`, `node ../node_modules/vitest/vitest.mjs run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-session-preparation.test.ts`; targeted controls
used the same runner with `-t 'inherited|effective model|retains both
plugin and local workspace ownership|never falls
back|unavailable|explicit settings|compatible explicit'`.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` and `git diff --check` pass.
- Initial fixture attempts hit source-binding, provider-execution,
missing working-directory, and branch-inspection guards. The fixture was
corrected; those guards remain unchanged. An automatic review recovery
also hid the initial transition until fixture settlement was corrected.
- Tests use real PostgreSQL, real policy resolution, and heartbeat
persistence. Provider execution is synthetic; a temporary local working
directory replaces environment realization for the test adapter.
- Current head `4d21b5180960659576e5950e906056fa4dabb54c` removes two
comments after standard review; executable code is unchanged from the
locally verified commit. Standard Greptile scores this head 5/5 with no
unresolved threads. GitHub CI is now green on this head: 54 successful
checks and two intentional Storybook skips. Standard Greptile and Apex
both score this head 5/5. Apex found no actionable issues; no unresolved
threads or merge conflicts remain.
- CI job
[workspaces-b](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40564712367/job/122406649223)
was interrupted by a runner shutdown signal at 19:09:39 UTC. Its
available log shows no test assertion failure; completed groups passed.
The serialized server shard
[1/9](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40564712367/job/122406648374)
also received a runner shutdown at 19:12:03 UTC; its final test summary
reports 532 passing tests and no failed assertion. Both interrupted jobs
passed in the failed-jobs-only rerun, and the final verify aggregate
passed. The first retry request was rejected while the containing run
was still active; it was accepted after the other jobs settled.
- Local verification is targeted as requested. Full test, build, and
typecheck coverage is delegated to GitHub CI. No live deployment or
latency claim is made.

## Risks

Bound repository runs now read the current storage-plugin defaults
through one provider-list query. An ambiguous or incompatible effective
policy can fail admission instead of being skipped. Existing plugin
preparation still uses the recorded workspace owner, so a changed
default does not move existing storage to another provider. Explicit
policy changes still rotate the session. No schema or API changes are
included.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, using repository inspection, code editing,
shell tools, and targeted test execution. The exact serving model ID and
context window are not exposed in this session.
