a6c4e7a8d1 fix(heartbeat): cancel obsolete execution continuations before dispatch (#13761)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A comment can queue execution before the task changes state.
> - The task may be completed, cancelled, deleted, or reassigned before
setup checks ownership.
> - The ownership guard must prevent that obsolete execution from
starting.
> - This pull request records that guard outcome as cancellation and
settles the wake request.
> - Missing history and authorization errors remain failures that
operators can investigate.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A comment can queue a run just before a user marks its task Done. The
ownership guard stops setup before adapter dispatch, but the run becomes
a setup failure and can put the agent into an error state.

**Expected behavior**

Cancel obsolete work when the typed task ownership guard rejects it.
Keep genuine setup errors visible. Do not change the task's terminal
state or current owner.

**Steps to reproduce**

Queue a task continuation, then mark the task Done or Cancelled before
continuation setup. The run should settle as cancelled without invoking
the adapter. Deleting or reassigning the task must also prevent
dispatch. Missing source history or explicit user authorization must
still fail.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Refreshed against master `b2e9e82f053af14777fd68e8834fff6bb64c84c4`.
Related: #13546 covers lost issue-lock claims, and #13888 covers
persisted continuation decisions and retry budgets. This change handles
the final continuation ownership guard during setup.

Thanks to @MrBlackTongue for the original typed cancellation
implementation and regression coverage. This update preserves the
contributor's commits, resolves the master conflict, and narrows
cancellation to task ownership invalidation.

## What Changed

- Add a typed `StaleExecutionContinuationError` for
`continuation_task_ownership_changed`.
- Use existing cancellation settlement for that typed guard, including
the run, wake request, issue execution ownership, and agent state.
Suppress immediate recovery of obsolete work.
- Preserve failure classification for missing source context, missing
user authorization, and untyped errors, including an untyped error with
identical text.
- Cover Done and Cancelled tasks with real database checks. Retain
company and assignment guard coverage. Verify cancellation performs no
adapter dispatch or automatic replay.
- Document the cancellation event and its error classification in the
run-log guide.

## Verification

Current head: `b875486e81`.

- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed.
- `pnpm build`: passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts
server/src/services/execution-continuation.test.ts --maxWorkers=1
--no-file-parallelism -t 'authorized continuation context|obsolete
continuation setup|untyped continuation setup failures'`: 17 passed; 316
unrelated tests excluded by the name filter.
- `pnpm test:run`: local full run is still finishing. It is not a clean
pass: the observed failures are three company-skills cache checks
(`EACCES` while renaming read-only cache directories on macOS), one
tool-access assertion, and one comment-wake timeout. The three cache
failures reproduce in isolation in unchanged code. The tool-access check
passes in isolation, and the entire comment-wake file passes (29 tests),
including explicit feedback after completion. Final full-run totals will
be added when available.
-
[CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36282532652):
all gates green on this head. An unchanged Runner workspace-diff test
initially returned no diff; an isolated check passed, and the failed job
plus its dependent gate passed on retry with no code change. Original
failed job: 108517010989.
- Greptile: 5/5 on the full current head, with no unresolved review
threads. Branch is current with master and conflict-free.
- Diff check and local secret/PII scan passed. No customer data or
private deployment identifiers are included.

## Risks

The classification change is limited to the typed ownership guard. A
task with missing history remains a failure rather than being treated as
an expected cancellation. Existing company, task-owner, terminal-state,
and authorization checks still prevent dispatch. Cancellation retains
its specific reason in the run log and does not grant a retry. No
schema, dependency, or API changes; no migration is required.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 via Codex assisted investigation, implementation, code
review, and test execution. The exact serving model identifier and
context-window size are not exposed in this session.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 9ed55f6931 fix: allow concurrent agent runs on one OpenAI or xAI subscription connection (#13452)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Paperclip starts local command-line sessions and stores provider
credentials through managed connections
> - One OpenAI Codex or xAI Grok subscription connection held a
credential lease for the full agent run
> - A second run then waited for the first run, and concurrent runs
could overwrite a newer credential
> - The write-back must compare fresh credentials while it holds the row
lock
> - This pull request removes the run lease, keeps the revocation guard,
and bounds Codex timestamps against the host clock
> - The benefit is safe concurrent use of one subscription connection
with newest-credential selection

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A managed OpenAI Codex or xAI Grok subscription connection held a
credential lease for the full agent run. A second run waited for the
first run to finish. The write-back gate also rejected any row change
before it compared credential freshness.

**Expected behavior**

Concurrent runs should start on one subscription connection. The server
should keep the newest valid credential and reject a credential write
after a person revokes the connection.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start two runs that use one OpenAI or xAI subscription connection.
2. Let both provider tools refresh the credential.
3. Finish the runs in either order.
4. Confirm that the newest valid credential remains in the connection.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`ec25bf1e4a81d1729a6d7276e6a486587cff4a0b`

**Deployment mode**

Local dev (`pnpm dev`), built from source.

**Agent adapter(s) involved**

Codex. The server path also covers xAI Grok subscription connections.

**Database mode**

Embedded PGlite for local development, and external Postgres for
deployments.

**Access context**

Both board and agent runs can use managed connections.

**Additional context**

The provider command-line tool refreshes credentials inside the sandbox.
The server copies the result back after the run. Two long runs can still
refresh one token hours apart, so the provider can reject the second
refresh. The server cannot observe that provider call.

## What Changed

- Remove the full-run credential lease for OpenAI Codex and xAI Grok
subscription connections.
- Lock and re-read the connection row before credential write-back.
- Accept only a strictly newer credential, while keeping the connection
revocation guard.
- Reject Codex freshness timestamps more than five minutes ahead of the
host clock.
- Add tests for both completion orders, xAI cleanup, revocation, the
Codex time bound, and agent hiring.
- Update the connection and run-log documentation.

## Verification

- `server/src/__tests__/ai-connections.test.ts` passes with 42 tests.
-
`packages/adapters/codex-local/src/server/codex-auth-merge-decision.test.ts`
covers the five-minute boundary and the one-millisecond overflow.
- `packages/adapters/codex-local/src/server/codex-auth-merge.test.ts`
passes.
- `server/src/__tests__/agent-hire-ai-connections.test.ts` covers OpenAI
and Anthropic.
- The project type check reports no new error in changed files.
- GitHub Actions must pass on this pull request.

## Risks

The write-back now permits concurrent runs, so the provider may reject a
later refresh when both long runs use one token. The server keeps the
revocation guard and rejects future-dated Codex timestamps. No schema
change occurs.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-5. Context window and exact deployment build are not
exposed in this run. The model used tool calls, code inspection, and
test verification.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 667c79ded2 fix: prevent retry-exhaustion events from exhausting attention-feed memory (#13451)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Its attention feed shows failed runs whose retry budget is
exhausted.
> - Startup retention builds this feed before startup completes.
> - The feed joins every exhaustion event to the full run context, then
removes duplicate runs in JavaScript.
> - Recovery can revisit an exhausted run and append the same event
again. This multiplies the data loaded into memory.
> - This pull request selects one small row per run in PostgreSQL and
makes exhaustion writes idempotent.
> - Existing duplicate events can stay in the database without
multiplying run contexts in server memory.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13367. This fixes the repeated-event allocation path in the
retention feed. Other full-feed sources and sweep cadence remain
separate concerns.

**What happened?**

The attention query loaded one full run context for every matching
exhaustion event. Deduplication ran only after the driver had loaded
those rows. A run with thousands of exhaustion events therefore produced
thousands of context copies. The startup retention sweep can exhaust the
server heap while reading this result.

**Expected behavior**

The query should return one row per exhausted run and only the context
fields that the feed needs. Repeated checks of the same exhausted retry
budget should reuse the original event.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create a failed run with a 32 KB context and 2,500 matching
exhaustion events.
2. Build the attention feed, including dismissed items, as startup
retention does.
3. Inspect the database result before JavaScript feed processing. The
old join returns 2,500 copies of the run context.
4. Call bounded retry scheduling repeatedly for a run at its retry
limit. The old writer appends another exhaustion event on every call.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The attention query was introduced by #9380 and is present in stable
`v2026.831.1`. The retention caller is also present in that stable
release. The later recovery callback added by #13075 provides a repeated
path into the exhausted-budget writer. This change is based on
`c0fda8fac` after rebasing onto current master.

Related PR:
[#12162](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/12162) changes
retention cadence and newer-run suppression queries. This change
addresses the exhaustion-event join and duplicate event writes.

## What Changed

- Select the newest company-scoped exhaustion event per run with a
PostgreSQL `DISTINCT ON` subquery before joining run data.
- Project only `issueId` and `taskId` from run context. Preserve JSON
types, fallback behavior, run ordering, company filters, and run/agent
status filters.
- Reuse an exhaustion event for the same run, reason, attempt, and retry
limit under the existing run-row lock. Recognize historical events
without a migration.
- Skip sequence allocation and live publication when a receipt already
exists.
- Document the run-log behavior and add PostgreSQL regression tests.

## Verification

- Focused attention, retry-scheduling, and event-sequencing suites: 72
tests pass on the rebased head `39ce77158`.
- The large-history fixture verifies two database result rows under 4
KB, newest-message selection, task-ID fallback, and company/status
filtering. This assertion runs before feed deduplication.
- Concurrent event tests verify one receipt across two database clients,
reuse of historical receipts, distinct reason/attempt/budget keys, and
stable event sequences.
- Repeated scheduling through a new service instance produces no extra
run-log or live events.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsc --noEmit`: passes.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`: pass on the rebased head,
including native runner checks.
- Greptile: 5/5 on `39ce77158`, with no review threads.
- [GitHub
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34929002304):
all 25 workflow jobs pass, including all server/workspace test shards,
serialized server suites, browser tests, typecheck, build, native-runner
verification, and the release dry run. Security checks also pass. The
branch has no merge conflicts.
- `pnpm test:run`: stopped with unrelated failures. Two chat integration
cases passed when rerun separately (2 passed, 993 unselected). Three
skill-cache cases failed on both this branch and the unmodified parent
commit, with `EACCES` during directory rename. The full suite is not
reported as green.

## Risks

- No schema migration or data cleanup is required. The query still scans
matching event history in PostgreSQL; its result size now scales with
exhausted runs.
- This does not bound every source in the attention feed or change
retention scheduling.
- An exhaustion receipt is emitted once per retry decision. Consumers
that observed repeated copies will now receive one event.
- Native source-event replay handling stays on its existing path.
- A deployed application boot has not been verified.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6, used through Codex with reasoning, repository inspection,
code editing, and test execution. The runtime does not expose a more
specific model snapshot or context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip f912ecaacf fix: carry AI connections through hiring and unblock task execution (#13438)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents hire other agents and assign tasks to them.
> - Managed AI connections must follow those hires across legacy and
native runners.
> - Missing accounts should pause task execution and let the user
connect from the task.
> - Subscription contention must wait without asking for new
credentials.
> - This pull request fixes these paths and the native tool and Daytona
staging failures found during live tests.
> - The result is a working hire, subtask, and connection setup flow on
local and remote runners.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A managed Claude or Codex agent could hire a teammate without a usable
AI binding. Cross-provider hiring could fail before the user had a
chance to connect the new provider. First-time task setup did not show
the existing AI credential form inline. A busy subscription could
request a new connection. Native API replies could stop the parent after
a hire had already committed. Fresh Daytona sandboxes could fail to
extract read-only skill directories created on macOS.

**Expected behavior**

Compatible hires inherit the managed connection choice. A hire for
another provider uses the responsible user's default. If that account is
missing, the hire succeeds and the task asks for a connection.
Completing setup in the task resumes work automatically. Explicit child
auth settings and existing unmanaged login paths keep precedence.
Shared-account access checks remain in force.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Connect a Claude or Codex parent with a managed AI account.
2. Ask it to hire one agent of each provider and create a self-assigned
subtask.
3. Assign work to both hires without connecting the second provider
first.
4. Connect the missing provider from its task card.
5. Check that all tasks finish and same-provider work uses the original
account.
6. Repeat with native runners and fresh Daytona sandboxes. The opt-in
browser suite in `tests/hiring-ai-connections/README.md` performs these
steps.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The live failures were reproduced from `f2c5e54dc`. The branch is
rebased onto `5282cabde`.

**Deployment mode**

Isolated local development instance. Legacy CLI and native runners.
Local execution and ephemeral Daytona sandboxes.

Related work: Refs #13247 for managed AI connections. Refs #13268 for
legacy credential-reference inheritance, which this branch preserves.
Refs #13432 for a concurrent managed-inheritance fix. This PR also
covers cross-provider task setup, subscription waits, native API
replies, and Daytona extraction. It permits missing responsible-user
defaults at hire time; restricted shared selections still fail.

## What Changed

- Apply managed connection defaults to both agent creation routes.
Preserve explicit auth choices and legacy credential-reference
inheritance.
- Allow hires before their responsible user connects the provider. Keep
approval gates, company boundaries, and shared-account access checks.
- Reuse the production AI credential form inside the pending task card.
Resume the task after setup.
- Retry subscription lease contention without consuming the
provider-failure allowance or creating a connection request.
- Require task execution-lock ownership when scheduling, promoting, and
dispatching subscription retries. Recheck ownership under the issue row
lock.
- Rename the HTTP operation identity at the native tool boundary so it
cannot override the runner's operation identity.
- Delay directory permission restoration during Daytona extraction.
Preserve the final read-only modes.
- Add database-backed regressions, real browser acceptance tests, and
Storybook states. Document setup and run-log behavior.

## Verification

- Six real browser scenarios passed: both parent providers on legacy
local and legacy Daytona; native Codex locally; native Claude on
Daytona. Each scenario hires both providers, completes a self-subtask
and assigned work, and connects the missing provider inline with
automatic continuation.
- Successful runs verify the account, responsible user, runner mode, and
Daytona lease. All 18 test sandboxes were deleted.
- Live authentication used API keys. Subscription inheritance, lease
contention, and retry have integration coverage. Fresh subscription
OAuth sign-in was not automated.
- Red/green tests reproduced missing bindings, missing inline forms,
subscription contention, native API reply failure, and GNU tar
permission failure.
- Seven Storybook browser checks passed. They cover both providers,
method selection, narrow layout, completion, cancellation, and invalid
credentials.
- Full local suite coverage completed before rebase. Initial timing and
fixture startup failures passed unchanged on isolated reruns. The first
full command did not exit cleanly; the remaining workspace and
serialized groups were completed separately.
- After rebase, 107 hiring/auth/retry tests and 59 native API,
task-card, and Daytona tests passed. The full workspace typecheck,
production build, and token gates passed again. Storybook build passed
before rebase.

- Review fixes: 169 hiring/retry/dispatch tests, 37 adjacent tests, and
four explicit cancellation-race cases passed. Eight cross-provider cases
cover stale auth keys on both creation routes and both runner types.
Server typecheck and build passed.

- Final CI on `ee4890837a8a4913e07453392b9a75969580dae1`: 32 checks
passed. Two optional Storybook jobs were skipped. The full server,
workspace, browser, native runner, build, typecheck, and release checks
passed.
- Three unchanged tests initially failed on a busy port, a chat row-lock
race, and preview-server readiness. Each affected job passed after one
CI rerun. Isolated local checks also passed: 41 credential tests, the
chat-concurrency case, and 25 preview-runtime tests.
- Greptile reviewed the final commit at 5/5. Both review threads are
resolved. GitHub reports no merge conflicts.

## Risks

- A missing personal account now defers authentication to the first
task. Explicit incompatible bindings and restricted shared accounts
still fail at hire time.
- An inherited personal default uses the responsible user's existing
authorization to install access for the new agent. It never copies
credentials or another user's identity.
- Subscription contention retries after a delay and rechecks task
eligibility. It does not consume the provider-failure budget.
- Native hiring uses the existing managed API-tools opt-in. Remote
native runners require a matching Linux binary and provider pack, as
documented in the acceptance README.
- No schema changes. Live tests make paid provider calls and remain
opt-in.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 (`gpt-6-astra`) in Codex, with reasoning, repository
inspection, code execution, browser automation, and API tools. The
context-window size is not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 422287eecd fix: preserve runner recovery, warm sessions, and task outcomes (#13338)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The native runner connects task messages, provider execution, and
task outcomes.
> - First-time user tests exposed gaps in recovery, completion
permissions, message delivery, and Stop behavior.
> - These gaps left usable output hidden, completed work waiting for
bookkeeping, or safe work unable to continue.
> - This pull request fixes the shared lifecycle and receipt paths while
preserving process ownership and action checks.
> - Users can continue work with accurate task state and durable
messages.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A stopped local Codex execution could remain blocked even after its
processes had stopped and its complete transcript proved that no
external action needed replay. Claude under Conservative permissions
could fail to call task completion tools. Recovery could reuse an
assistant item ID and overwrite prior output. A delivered comment could
remain marked uncertain after navigation. Stop could look like Pause or
a new recovery incident. Workspace contention could look like
cancellation. A direct reply reopening Done could enter a clarification
loop.

**Expected behavior**

Recover automatically only with verified termination and complete action
receipts. Preserve answers and messages. Keep task completion available
under Conservative permissions without broad tool access. Show crashes
as Blocked, actual human decisions as In Review, and ordinary workspace
contention as waiting. Stop the current response and allow a new
direction.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create ordinary response tasks with local Codex and Claude Code, then
send follow-up messages through the task composer.
2. Interrupt a disposable local Codex runner during text-only work.
Verify automatic continuation and retained output.
3. Stop a response, send a new request, answer a clarification, and
reopen completed work with another message.
4. Navigate or reload while a comment submission is pending. Confirm the
exact persisted request receipt settles it without removing newer draft
text.
5. Run two tasks in a shared Daytona workspace. Confirm waiting does not
appear as failure.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Initial acceptance baseline: `c9021c6721f91e2c74bd9fee9d3fd41c999d17b7`.
Current integration base: `6cef9743c`. Both operator-interruption and
workspace-waiting guards are preserved; native restart and legacy
permission rules remain documented.

**Deployment mode**

An isolated source-built test-drive instance, with real local Codex and
Claude Code providers and disposable Daytona environments.

Related work: #13314, #13316, #13327, #13344, #13239, #13254, #13163.
This PR addresses additional failures from ordinary task journeys,
including controller restart handoff and repeated warm sandbox setup.
Historical task status reconciliation is excluded.

## What Changed

- Persist runner ownership immediately at spawn and resume an explicitly
adopted runner even when the controller crashed before the first driver
checkpoint. Detach the controller safely across graceful restarts,
including session startup. Prevent an old finalizer from suspending or
signaling an adopted runner. Checkpoint idle warm sessions before
shutdown. Preserve the same run and queued follow-up messages.
- Scope saved legacy queue successor checks to the queue owner while
preserving ordinary task locks, operator identity, assignment gates, and
exactly-once delivery.
- Preserve managed Codex credential files when an old session is
detached for restart; normal owned cleanup still copies refreshed auth
back and removes the scoped copy.
- Reuse the bound warm shared sandbox and fully verify an existing
staged provider pack before using it. This avoids repeated uploads when
the pack is already valid.
- Add a narrow local Codex replacement path with stopped-process proof,
a closed transcript inventory, exact completion receipts, and
fresh-session lineage. Preserve no-replay holds when evidence is
incomplete. Recovery may clear only the same run's recorded Blocked
status version; manual re-blocking and dependency changes invalidate
that receipt, while queued comments do not. Later blocks stop scheduled,
queued, and final dispatch; queued/final checks re-read dependencies
even when the task status stays In Progress.
- Permit only task delivery and human-input tools through the isolated
Claude runner's exact task bridge.
- Scope assistant item identity to the provider turn and ignore only
authority-free Codex skill-change notifications during startup.
- Reconcile composer submissions by client request ID across response
loss, navigation, and reload. Retain text typed during delivery.
- Keep acknowledged run-only Stop neutral and show workspace contention
as waiting. Project exhausted native failures as Blocked.
- Restore the guarded task-page retry action for failed legacy runs,
including the server-supported explicit new-attempt path for stopped
conversation adapters. Preserve native/process recovery holds and avoid
promising Retry while a decision or execution gate hides it.
- Refresh delivered artifacts and handle direct user replies that reopen
completed work without a clarification loop.
- Check the embedded PostgreSQL PID, data directory, and actual port
before connecting or migrating.
- Document accepted behavior and add focused regressions at lifecycle,
route, transcript, and UI boundaries.

## Verification

- Final head `fece606ac2` passes the complete GitHub CI matrix: **34
green checks, two expected Storybook skips, no failures or pending
checks**, including `ci / verify`, `ci / e2e`, full runner verification,
typecheck, build, every server/workspace shard, and all browser shards.
[CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34727183287).
Greptile is **5/5 with no open findings**. The final two commits only
refine test fixtures; both affected suites pass 24/24 locally and in CI,
with server typecheck green.
- Complete local Vitest coverage uses the canonical groups/shards: all
635 general server suites, all 145 serialized suites, and all workspace
packages. The aggregate began on `0a8001c18` while the final queue fix
arrived: 23,903 passed, five failed, 87 skipped. The five
port/socket/timing failures passed unchanged in follow-ups (60 tests in
the exposure/file suites and 412 tests covering the serialized failures
and unrun tails). The final queue/operator-identity suites separately
passed 52/52. This is aggregate coverage plus explicit reruns, not a
pristine single-command final-head run.
- After integration with current master,
queue/operator-identity/continuation suites passed 162/162 and affected
UI suites passed 140/140. ACP Stop/continuation and legacy
task/Inbox/message browser suites passed 9/9, including both task
recovery Retry and thread Try again, automatic saved-message delivery,
exactly one new run, Done, and retained output after reload. The default
process Stop/Pause/Resume browser case passed (the native-provider case
is opt-in and skipped by default). The complete Board attachment/receipt
browser suite passed 11/11 on a disposable instance, covering both
composers, exact receipts after lost responses, no replay, bound
attachments, and newer drafts after reload.
- Blocking-intent regressions cover pre-existing Blocked, a mismatched
run/cause, an explicit manual re-block, changed dependencies, a queued
comment after failure, and a block arriving between scheduling and
provider dispatch. The negative cases reproduced before the fix. All 478
affected executor/recovery/dispatch tests passed; both database suites
ran separately after availability-probe skips in the first combined
command. The final late-dependency check passed all 143 affected
recovery/dispatch tests (zero skips) after two new negative cases
reproduced the bug.
- Focused runtime regressions cover awaited runner ownership
publication, authenticated adoption before the first checkpoint,
old-finalizer detachment, idle and busy warm-session shutdown, rejected
checkpoint propagation, provider-pack verification, and managed-Codex
credential preservation. Four managed credential detachment cases
reproduced the bug before the fix; normal owned cleanup still succeeds
exactly once.
- Live local Claude: SIGKILL 2.6 seconds into startup recovered the same
run automatically in 53 seconds, then a normal follow-up completed in 24
seconds. SIGTERM 2.5 seconds into startup preserved the same run (54
seconds) and its queued follow-up (21 seconds). Answers remained visible
and the task reached Done.
- Live Claude Daytona: a warm follow-up retained its sandbox and fell
from 121 seconds to 44 seconds. A separate cold turn took 127 seconds;
after controller shutdown and checkpointing, its follow-up completed in
33 seconds with the same sandbox, workspace, native session, and runner.
Both answers remained visible and the task was Done.
- Other live journeys covered task completion and follow-up with local
and Daytona Codex, local Codex crash recovery, Stop then new direction,
clarification response, live artifact refresh, and shared-workspace
waiting.
- Validation limits: the opt-in native composer Stop/Pause→subtree
Resume fixture exposes terminal/result ordering and subtree-cancellation
attribution bugs that can leave a child task blocked; that new finding
is assigned to a separate follow-up and is not claimed fixed here.
Default CI skips this optional native-provider fixture. Managed-Codex
credential handoff and the queue-agent integration use automated
regression evidence. Cold custom provider-pack uploads still add startup
latency.

## Risks

- Automatic replacement remains deliberately narrow: local Codex,
verified stopped identities, unchanged retained state, and a complete
text/completion-only turn. Unknown actions, partial history, or changed
ownership remain blocked.
- Claude completion permission handling changes an upstream package
patch. The exact isolated task bridge must remain pinned; unrelated
tools keep their existing permissions.
- New task failure projection changes user-visible status. No historical
status backfill or database migration is included.
- This is a broad lifecycle fix across server and UI. Live proof covers
graceful local Claude restart during startup and idle Claude Daytona
session recovery across controller shutdown. Live abrupt SIGKILL during
local Claude startup also recovered the same run. Unknown ownership or
missing action evidence still blocks reuse. Cold custom provider-pack
uploads still add startup latency; this change avoids unnecessary repeat
uploads.

DottaandPaperclip 3b550c80fa fix(codex): correct startup trust, history reads, and resume usage (#13110)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip runs Codex locally and in remote sandboxes.
> - The runner must preserve startup configuration and session identity.
> - Missing project trust can disable repository configuration.
> - Full-history requests use deprecated provider fields.
> - Resume usage describes old work and must not become new run usage.
> - This change corrects startup trust, state reads, and usage
classification.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Normal Codex runs could show repository-trust and history-deprecation
warnings.
Resume could report the preceding turn's token snapshot as a late-turn
warning.
The historical last-usage value could also be attributed to the new run.

**Expected behavior**

Trust the server-selected startup root in isolated configuration. Read
lightweight
provider state and paginated evidence. Use historical cumulative usage
as a
baseline without a new charge or user-facing warning.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a native Codex task in a selected repository.
2. Finish the turn and resume the provider thread.
3. Inspect provider notices, history requests, and per-run usage.
4. Repeat startup and cold resume inside a Daytona sandbox.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Codex CLI 0.153.4 is the pinned runtime and reproduced baseline.
Replayed onto master at 6abeb6733. Related authority work: Refs #13092.
This PR retains its startup cleanup and protocol-integrity checks.

**Deployment mode**

Local source checkout and disposable Daytona sandbox.

## What Changed

- Classify the exact historical resume usage event before the generic
stale-turn warning.
- Persist cumulative usage baselines across recovery of the same run.
- Use excludeTurns on resume and lightweight thread reads.
- Page turn metadata and selected turn items with cursor and identity
validation.
- Reject unsupported or incomplete history instead of guessing that
execution is idle.
- Trust the startup execution root on its host, including Git worktree
trust keys.
- Start Codex in that root and retain the selected sandbox profile on
later turns.
- Keep unrelated isolated configuration and Codex's separate hook trust
policy.
- Add Rust, TypeScript, accounting, native integration, and local
run-log documentation.

## Verification

- Codex and native-transport TypeScript: 333 passed before PR replay.
- Adjacent OpenCode/ACPX driver and accounting tests: 49 passed.
- Rust library, serialized: 226 passed. Native Codex integration: 72
passed, 1 ignored, plus two pagination regressions.
- Repository typecheck and build passed. All repository test groups have
passing coverage after fixture and resource retests; the initial
monolithic command was not clean.
- Fresh real Codex native browser tasks returned correct answers without
the three targeted notices. Answers persisted after refresh and restart.
- Real same-thread TypeScript driver tests passed locally and in
Daytona, including cold resume, configuration, skills, and an approved
harmless hook.
- Local usage summed to 64,607 tokens. Daytona usage summed to 42,737
tokens. Each sum matched its final session total exactly.
- See doc/plans/2026-09-09-codex-integration-acceptance.md for the scope
and limits of the live tests.
- After replay onto current master and review fixes: 334 Codex, backend,
and live-session tests passed, including checkpoint serialization and
real-runner process restart. TypeScript checks passed.
- The native Codex integration run passed 83 tests; the large lineage
test passed separately with the release runner (its debug build exceeded
the test deadline).
- All GitHub checks passed on the final PR head. Greptile is 5/5 with no
unresolved review threads. CI regenerates the lockfile for the added
TOML dependency, per repository policy.
- The first server shard hit a timing-dependent duplicate-key failure in
the unchanged artifact-document concurrency test. Its focused 11-test
suite passed locally. One CI retry on the same head passed all 103 files
and 1,405 tests (2 skipped): [retry
result](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34398832930/job/102631274667).

## Risks

- Trust applies only to the server-selected startup root and isolated
configuration. Sandbox and tool permissions remain authoritative.
- Codex still requires approval of individual hook hashes. This change
does not bypass that policy.
- Providers without the required history APIs fail explicitly.
- Daytona acceptance used the production TypeScript driver. Remote
Paperclip UI and remote Rust execution were not tested.
- No new public API, database state, recovery policy, or UI control is
included.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 (`gpt-6-astra`). Used for reasoning, code edits,
tool use,
and test execution. The exact context-window limit is not exposed in
this
session. Real-provider acceptance used Codex CLI 0.153.4 with
`gpt-5.6-sol`.

Dotta 7b094724e6 fix(runner): recover native sessions across restarts (#12845)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The Paperclip Runner keeps durable run and provider state outside
one server process.
> - A server restart can leave that runner alive or can interrupt it
after a provider checkpoint.
> - The old startup path used handoff intent and PID evidence, but it
did not reconstruct native ownership.
> - That gap could block the issue, create a replacement run, or start
duplicate provider work.
> - This pull request adds durable same-run recovery for coordinated and
uncoordinated restarts.
> - The benefit is exact recovery of the run, runner, session, provider,
steering, and finalization state.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #9628. That pull request added earlier local-adapter hot-restart
work. This change adds native PRP authority reconstruction and same-run
provider resume.

Refs #10935. That pull request handles missing hot-restart snapshots.
This change also supports hard restarts with no snapshot.

Refs #11624. That pull request prevents unsafe retry after an adopted
legacy process exits. This change reconciles native terminal evidence
before provider recovery.

Refs #12070. That pull request improves process liveness checks. This
change also binds recovery to a process-start fingerprint and fails
closed on ambiguity.

**What happened?**

The server could record hot-restart intent, but startup did not rebuild
native runner ownership. A live runner could not re-register its PRP
authority. A dead runner could not resume the exact native and provider
session on the same heartbeat run. Generic recovery could then block the
issue or create replacement work.

**Expected behavior**

A live native runner must reconnect with the same PID and logical
identities. A dead runner must resume the same durable session and
heartbeat run with only a new operating-system PID. A proposed or
terminal result must finalize once before any provider turn starts.
Ambiguous process or session evidence must stay blocked without a signal
or duplicate spawn.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a Paperclip Runner heartbeat and wait for an active provider
turn.
2. Restart only the Paperclip server, with or without a hot-restart
marker.
3. Observe that the old startup path does not reconstruct the native
control-plane authority.
4. Kill both the server and runner after a provider checkpoint.
5. Observe that the old path cannot resume the exact native session on
the original heartbeat run.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The defect was reproduced from commit
`1991f31fd53e7f7794d5c2e4b93be384ade2b41d`. This branch is rebased onto
the current `master`.

**Deployment mode**

Local development and self-hosted server deployments that use the local
Paperclip Runner.

## What Changed

- Added correlated hot-restart requests and version-compatible native
handoff fields.
- Added controller boot identity, process-start identity, controller
generation, recovery state, request id, and bounded history to the
native finalization ledger.
- Added transactional recovery claims for live-runner reattach,
dead-runner resume, and incomplete bootstrap.
- Added fail-closed ownership takeover rules and process identity
validation.
- Added live runner adoption to the local runner transport without a
duplicate spawn.
- Added same-run provider checkpoint resume and legacy retry-row
compatibility.
- Reconciled proposed and terminal results before runner or provider
recovery.
- Bound the HTTP and PRP listener before startup recovery and delayed
scheduling and generic reapers until classification completes.
- Added restart-aware health diagnostics, run-log recovery transitions,
durable runner diagnostics, and bounded shutdown finalizer draining.
- Moved restart-survivable diagnostics into runner-owned, pre-redacted
bounded writes; raw stdout and stderr are never persisted.
- Added process-start fencing for controller, runner, and provider PIDs;
startup classifies every candidate without an implicit cap.
- Added crash-recoverable, contention-safe development restart-request
coordination and failed-startup listener cleanup.
- Added a credential-free real-process restart suite for eight restart,
scale, and identity scenarios.
- Documented native restart operation, persistence, diagnostics, and
verification.

## Verification

- The documented native restart commands passed. They ran eight
real-process/database recovery scenarios and the live runner adoption
transport test.
- Native executor tests passed: 111 tests.
- Heartbeat recovery tests passed: 124 tests.
- Hot restart, health, and shutdown tests passed: 52 tests.
- The broader affected server suite passed: 350 tests.
- Focused native recovery and startup tests passed: 49 tests.
- Runner transport and control-plane tests passed: 63 tests.
- Runner-owned diagnostic tests passed for write-time bounding,
credential redaction, private file modes, and raw stream
non-persistence.
- Development restart coordination tests passed: 11 tests.
- Database migration checks and the partial-application/replay
regression test passed.
- Server, database, and Paperclip Runner typechecks passed.
- `git diff --check` passed.
- Full Paperclip PR CI passed, including build, canary, all five general
server shards, all five serialized server shards, all three browser E2E
shards, workspace suites, and release-registry verification.
- Greptile completed at 5/5 with no outstanding findings,
recommendations, follow-ups, or open review threads.

## Risks

- Moderate risk. This changes startup ordering and ownership transfer
for active native runs.
- The migration adds nullable columns and does not rewrite existing
rows.
- Recovery fails closed when process or durable session identity is
incomplete or contradictory.
- The first implementation supports the local Paperclip Runner. Remote
targets keep their existing behavior.
- The real-process suite covers cleanup and asserts that no runner or
provider process survives each test.

## Model Used

model revision or context-window size. Repository editing, shell
execution, database tests, and real-process test execution were enabled.

Dotta 9964b034bb feat(runner): add hidden server PRP coordinator (#12176)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The Paperclip Runner needs a narrow server trust boundary before an
adapter can start it.
> - The package has durable runner transport, but the server does not
host or authorize that transport.
> - Native persistence exists, but no writer connects PRP events to
those records.
> - A direct adapter must not enter this path by accident.
> - This pull request adds a hidden, run-bound PRP server coordinator.
> - The benefit is a recoverable server boundary that remains
unavailable to normal execution.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #11962

Refs #12129

Refs #12169

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting. The change affects the runner package and server
orchestration.

**Problem or motivation**

The server cannot authenticate runnerd, commit PRP events before ACK,
authorize semantic tools, or enter native finalization from a durable
runner result. The application must have this hidden boundary before a
guarded adapter can use the runner.

**Proposed solution**

Add an authenticated PRP WebSocket authority and register it only for
one exact persisted native Codex run. Bind each connection and event to
the company, issue, agent, run, runner, session, turn, item, and
verified runner identity. Commit each event before its cumulative ACK.
Project only authorized same-task read tools. Rebuild the accepted
result and finalization record from durable result and terminal events.

**Alternatives considered**

The server could expose a broad runner API key or route semantic calls
through existing adapter endpoints. Those options grant too much
authority and weaken replay recovery. The server could also add the
user-facing adapter in this pull request. That option would mix rollout
selection with the transport trust boundary and make legacy
compatibility harder to review.

**Roadmap alignment**

This work supports the shipped enforced-outcomes, governed-tool, and
self-healing-run milestones. It does not add a new roadmap surface.

## What Changed

- Add the durable PRP server authority with one-use bootstrap tickets,
reconnect leases, encrypted frames, bounded state, cumulative ACKs, and
idempotent commands.
- Add `/api/runner/v1/connect/:runId`. Derive its `ws://` or `wss://`
URL from the configured Paperclip API URL.
- Register one authority only after the coordinator verifies the
complete native Codex run binding.
- Commit validated PRP events to `heartbeat_run_events` before ACK.
Reject source gaps and conflicting replays.
- Rebuild accepted results and finalization records from durable result
and terminal events. Enforce finalization owner leases and retry times.
- Project five same-task read operations. Recheck run, agent, task, and
company authority for each call.
- Keep the route hidden. No adapter selects this coordinator, and no
code starts runnerd.
- Vendor the compiled runner TypeScript runtime into the server package
while keeping the workspace package development-only for the server.
- Document the package, database writer, run-log payload, and credential
exclusions.

## Verification

- Run `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner check:all`. All
TypeScript protocol checks and 69 Vitest tests pass, including
commit-before-ACK crash recovery. All 43 Rust unit tests and 13 Rust
integration tests pass. Conformance and replay parity pass.
- Run the focused server WebSocket, coordinator, package-build, and
startup-wiring suites. All 26 tests pass, including a clean-checkout
reproduction with the runner `dist` directory absent.
- Run `pnpm -r typecheck`.
- Run `pnpm test:run`.
- Run `pnpm build`.
- Confirm that the diff contains 19 files. Confirm that it contains no
workflow or `pnpm-lock.yaml` change.

## Risks

- The server installs the WebSocket route at startup. An unregistered or
malformed run path fails closed and creates no native record.
- Bootstrap tickets are one use. The private state directory uses mode
`0700`, and the state file uses mode `0600`. The file stores derived
authentication verifiers and never stores raw tickets or lease tokens.
- The journal has explicit frame, command, event-window, and file-size
bounds. A bound violation closes the runner connection or rejects the
command.
- A runner event reaches the database before its ACK. A crash between
event commit and ACK causes a byte-equivalent replay, not a second
logical effect.
- The coordinator accepts only an existing queued or running native
Codex row with exact company, task, agent, runner, session, and
completion-contract ownership.
- Existing direct adapters do not call this service. They keep their
current execution, transcript, result, and finalization paths.
- The server has no production dependency on the private runner package.
Its build copies the compiled runtime into `server/dist`; the workspace
link is development-only. This adds no external package and does not
change the lockfile.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip d1573244b5 refactor: disambiguate the Telemetry and Observability data paths (#12128)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Paperclip records first-party events, OpenTelemetry data, and local
run-log events
> - The code and documents used one term for these three data paths
> - This naming made the required review level unclear
> - This pull request names each data path in the module names,
documents, and code comments
> - The benefit is a clear review rule without a runtime change

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Issue type**

Unclear or confusing.

**Where is the issue?**

`packages/shared/src/telemetry/README.md`, `doc/observability.md`,
`doc/run-log-events.md`, and the duplex instrumentation modules.

**What's wrong?**

The repository used Telemetry for first-party events, OpenTelemetry
data, and local run-log events. This usage made the data path and review
level unclear.

**Suggested fix**

Use Telemetry only for Paperclip first-party events. Use Observability
for OpenTelemetry data. Use the run log for rows in
`heartbeat_run_events`.

Related public pull requests: #8476 and #9672.

## What Changed

- Rename the duplex instrumentation modules and identifiers from
`Telemetry` to `Observability`.
- Move the Observability and run-log contracts out of the Telemetry
README.
- Add `doc/observability.md` and `doc/run-log-events.md` as the
canonical documents.
- Add a file-path review rule to `AGENTS.md`.
- Correct the remaining code comments that name the wrong data path.
- Keep all event names, payloads, database records, spans, configuration
keys, environment variables, and runtime paths unchanged.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run packages/shared/src/telemetry/readme-contract.test.ts`
passes.

passes.

packages/adapter-utils/src/acpx-engine/startup-timing.test.ts` passes

- The old module name does not remain in TypeScript or JSON files,
except for the intentional publication guard.
- CI and Greptile checks remain pending after PR creation.

## Risks

- The old duplex module subpath no longer has a compatibility shim. The
board accepted this intentional hard break.
- The new duplex module subpath stays blocked from package publication.
- The change has no runtime effect. The main risk is an incorrect
document or module reference.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-5 Codex, exact model ID `gpt-5`, with tool use and code
review support.
