DottaandPaperclip b31ec0a2dc feat(ui): link routines to a filtered task list (#18317)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Routines create tasks that people need to inspect and manage.
> - The routines list sends its View all runs link to Audit.
> - Tasks already supports routine origin filters in its API, but the
page has no control for them.
> - This pull request adds a Routine tasks checkbox and links to that
selection.
> - People can inspect routine work in the normal task list, search, and
board views.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The routines list link and the Tasks filters.

**Current behavior**

View all runs opens Audit. People cannot select routine-created tasks in
the Tasks filter menu.

**Proposed behavior**

View all tasks opens `/issues?view=all&originKind=routine_execution`.
Routine tasks is selected. People can toggle or clear it from Tasks.

**Reason and benefit**

People can use normal task controls to inspect work created by routines.
The filter includes manually started routine runs. It excludes manual
tasks and other automatic work.

**Breaking changes**

The routines list link changes its label and destination. No API,
schema, authorization, or routine execution contract changes.

## What Changed

- Add Routine tasks under Visibility in the current, streamlined, and
legacy Tasks filters. Keep Live runs only in the same group and use Show
agent-created tasks with proper capitalization where that control is
available.
- Keep the selection in the URL through reload, search, task navigation,
and checkbox changes.
- Apply the existing API origin filter before pagination. Include
routine tasks even when other automatic tasks are hidden.
- Keep source filtering in the shared task filter module and collection
owners. Reuse the existing company-scoped issue-list contract. Hide the
live-run control in the design sandbox, which does not load live-run
IDs.
- Update regression coverage, product docs, feature/access maps, and the
toolbar preview.

## Verification

- All 58 final-head checks are complete with no failures for
`f46c2e409b20fa372d166f4721601a0471894fb0`, including successful `ci /
verify` and `ci / e2e` gates. Greptile and Paperclip Review rate this
commit 5/5 with no actionable findings or unresolved review threads. [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41078093110).
- Local checks pass: full repo typecheck/build for the feature, UI
typecheck/build after the final refinements, token gates, feature-map
checks, and Storybook catalog generation.
- Regression coverage exercises both real list implementations, filter
grouping and selection, search and all board columns, URL/pagination
state, and mixed pending-decision batches. The Visibility update passed
all 89 relevant tests across separate runs. The final sandbox correction
passes all 10 filter-menu tests, including three cases that reproduced
the bug before the fix. The earlier broad UI run passed 10,043 tests
across 845 files.
- Browser proof used the actual local app with disposable PostgreSQL
data: three tasks created through the routine-run API and one manual
task. Followed View all tasks; verified the selected Routine tasks
checkbox under Visibility, toggling, reload, search, and board view.
Checked current, streamlined, and legacy filter presentations.
Screenshots show the link, routine-only results, and requested
capitalization/grouping.
- Failure accounting: the initial broad UI run found two preference
expectations that needed the new false default; those were corrected
before the full UI pass. Scrolling tests hit five-second timeouts in
combined runs and passed in isolated reruns without timeout changes. A
duplicate full local UI run was stopped after the earlier final-commit
CI UI lanes passed, with no failures reported in that stopped run.
- Full local `pnpm test:run` could not complete because native
PostgreSQL initialization exhausted the host semaphore pool. A direct
initdb probe confirmed `could not create semaphores: No space left on
device`. Browser verification used a disposable container; no host
settings or other workspace processes were changed.
- Review found that the newly exposed live-run control could empty the
design sandbox, which has no live-run IDs. The sandbox now disables that
unsupported control; its regression test failed before the fix and
passes after it.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change uses the existing routine origin and read
permissions. A routine task remains automatic work, including when a
person starts it manually.
- The routine checkbox is exposed only on the Tasks collection. Other
filter consumers retain their controls and normalize the new field to
false.
- Routine histories and Audit run links inside routine details keep
their current behavior.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-6, through Codex, assisted with implementation and
verification. The exact runtime model ID and context window are not
exposed in this session. Capabilities used: repository editing, command
execution, tests, and browser interaction.

1c07b5903b feat: Chat leads the left nav, agent work beside chats, and a Combined Inbox + Task List flag (#15100)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The left nav is the main way people move between tasks, the inbox,
and Agent Chat
> - The nav has separate Inbox and Tasks rows that show overlapping
work, and Chat is one row among many
> - The side panel beside a chat shows the conversation's own artifacts,
not the work the agent did
> - People want Chat to be easy to find, and they want one place for
their task views
> - This pull request moves Chat to the top of Work, shows the agent's
tasks and artifacts beside each chat, and adds an experimental flag that
folds Inbox into Tasks
> - The benefit is a shorter nav and a chat view that shows what the
agent is working on. Both changes stay off until an operator enables
them

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14706 (the secondary Agent Chat navigation this change builds on)
Refs #14848 (reopen the last visited agent chat)

**Subsystem affected**
UI navigation (left nav, mobile tab bar), Agent Chat side panel, task
list and inbox, and the company artifacts API.

**Problem or motivation**
Inbox and Tasks are two nav rows for overlapping work. Chat sits in the
top group with no clear home. The chat rail lists only agents you
already talked to, so you cannot see your other teammates there. The
side panel beside a chat shows only the conversation's own artifacts. It
does not show the tasks and files the agent made.

**Proposed solution**
With Agent Chat on, Chat leads the Work section and the rail lists every
eligible agent. The chat side panel opens on the agent's tasks as cards,
and the agent's artifacts are available from +. A new experimental flag,
Combined Inbox + Task List, makes Inbox a set of views inside Tasks.

**Alternatives considered**
Rebuilding the inbox inside the task list. Instead, `/issues` hosts the
existing Inbox component for inbox views and the existing task list for
status views, so all inbox behaviour stays the same.

**Roadmap alignment**
Agent Chat (ROADMAP.md, "Agent Chat (including CEO Chat)"). All changes
are behind experimental flags that are off by default.

## What Changed

- **Agent Chat nav (streamlined shell):** Chat is the first row of Work,
not a top-group row. Workspaces leaves the nav while Agent Chat is on.
The mobile tab bar is Home · Chat · + · Tasks · Agents. The legacy shell
keeps master's top-group Chat row.
- **Chat rail:** `AgentConversationsSidebar` lists every eligible agent.
The open chat is first, then conversations by recent activity, then the
rest of the roster alphabetically. Terminated agents and agents you left
are omitted unless you have history with them. The picker still marks
only real conversations as "Open chat".
- **Chat side panel:** a new default Tasks tab shows one card per task
the agent created, was assigned, commented on, or acted on, newest
first. It has the task list's filter popover and a sort control. **+ →
Artifacts** shows the agent's artifacts as cards. Cards open in a new
tab. Agent Chat off keeps the old Artifacts tab.
- **Artifacts API:** `GET /api/companies/:companyId/artifacts` accepts
`agentId`. The filter applies to documents, work products, and
attachments by the agent each result is attributed to. The shared
validator and the UI client carry the new parameter, and the OpenAPI
entry picks it up from the shared schema.
- **Combined Inbox + Task List flag (`enableCombinedInboxTasks`, off by
default):** new card in Settings > Experimental. The Inbox row goes away
and its badge moves to Tasks. A Views menu on `/issues` covers Mine,
Unread, Blocked, Recent, Everything, All, Active, Backlog, and Done.
Bare `/issues` opens the last-used view (default Mine). Links that carry
`assignee`, `workspace`, `participantAgentId`, or `q` open All so the
filter is kept. `/inbox/*` and
`/issues/{all,active,backlog,done,recent}` redirect to the matching
view. `/inbox/requests` stays its own page.
- **Task detail breadcrumb:** the view key now decides the source, so
quick-archive still works after a reload from an inbox view.
- **Docs:** `doc/PRODUCT.md` and `doc/SPEC.md` describe the chat rail,
the chat side panel, and the new flag.

## Verification

- `cd ui && npx vitest run --no-file-parallelism src/components/chat
src/components/task-side-panel/TaskSidePanel.test.tsx
src/components/AgentConversationsSidebar.test.tsx
src/components/Sidebar.test.tsx
src/components/SidebarCompanyMenu.test.tsx
src/components/Layout.test.tsx src/pages/AgentChats.test.tsx
src/pages/InstanceExperimentalSettings.test.tsx
src/lib/task-views.test.ts src/lib/issueDetailBreadcrumb.test.ts
src/pages/Inbox.test.tsx src/pages/Issues.test.tsx src/App.test.tsx
src/App.activity-routing.test.tsx
src/components/MobileBottomNav.test.tsx
src/components/CommandPalette.test.tsx`: 20 files, 356 tests pass.
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/company-artifacts-service.test.ts`: 13/13 pass, including
the new agent-filter test across all three artifact sources.
- The new rail test fails against the unmodified rail.
- `pnpm check:token-gates`: all gates clean.
- Manual: enable Agent Chat in Settings > Experimental. Open Chat. The
rail lists all agents. Open a chat. The side panel shows the agent's
tasks. Use **+ → Artifacts** to see the agent's artifacts. Then enable
Combined Inbox + Task List. The Inbox row goes away, and Tasks shows a
Views menu.
- Snapshot baselines are intentionally not updated. See
`doc/design/DECISION-SHEET.md`, "Per-change snapshot verification
demoted to dormant (Jul 13 2026)".

## Risks

- With both flags off, the app behaves like master. The only exception
is the API: it accepts a new optional query parameter.
- With Agent Chat on, the rail can list many agents in a large company.
It uses the agent list the app already loads, and search filters it.
- The Tasks panel reads at most 200 recently updated tasks per agent and
says so when it reaches the limit. The Artifacts panel reads at most 500
of the agent's artifacts.
- Combined Inbox + Task List changes what bare `/issues` opens for
people who enable it. Deep links with a task filter still open All.

## Model Used

- Claude (Anthropic), model ID `claude-opus-5-5`, through Claude Code
with tool use (shell, file edit, test runs). Extended thinking was
enabled.
