7b9334cd10 Draft: Build agent-ready design proposal system (#16875)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip helps people manage AI agents and their work.
> - People need consistent UI patterns to review and control that work.
> - The current board uses related layouts and controls with different
spacing, type, and behavior.
> - That drift makes it hard for a designer or an agent to build a new
page from a reliable reference.
> - Storybook can show the shared patterns and the states they need to
support.
> - This pull request adds design proposals, a local sandbox, and
reusable UI controls so people can compare the patterns in context.
> - The benefit is a clearer design system that agents can use to build
consistent UI.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

`ui/` — React board UI and Storybook.

**Problem or motivation**

Board pages repeat visual and interaction decisions. Storybook did not
provide a complete reference for task views, conversation states,
typography, toolbars, tabs, and light/dark colors. People could not
compare a proposed pattern with the running board in one place.

**Proposed solution**

Add a staged Design Proposals catalog with foundations, components,
layouts, and page specimens. Add an opt-in sandbox. Reuse production
components where possible. Include synthetic conversation states and
shared controls so reviewers can compare and refine them.

**Alternatives considered**

Separate static mockups would not show keyboard behavior, responsive
layout, or real component states. Rebuilding each page only in Storybook
would allow the reference to drift from the board.

**Roadmap alignment**

This improves existing board UI and Skills Manager surfaces. It does not
add a new control-plane capability.

## What Changed

- Added dark and light color references, typography and conversation
specimens, and component stories for buttons, tabs, toolbars, sidebar,
popovers, activity, and task lists.
- Added a local design sandbox with synthetic task conversation playback
and representative states.
- Shared collection toolbars and navigation patterns across task, agent,
project, routine, skill, connector, and artifact pages.
- Added the streamlined Skills tabs and a My Skills collection that uses
the shared skill cards.
- Restored saved-thread access during synthetic playback, kept connector
searchbox semantics, and updated reproduction checks after moving trial
stories.
- Documented the proposed patterns and added focused UI, catalog, and
browser checks.

## Verification

- `pnpm check:token-gates`, `node scripts/check-maps.mjs`, and `node
scripts/storybook-catalog.mjs --check` passed.
- Full workspace `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed after
merging master. After the review fixes, focused UI typecheck, `pnpm
build-storybook`, 23 Skills Sources tests, and all 15 Storybook
typography browser tests passed.
- Focused task-thread and system-notice suites passed: 251 tests.
Connector Browse passed 84 tests; the connector, attachment, recovery,
and Storybook flyout browser journeys passed locally.
- A local full Vitest run hit one intermittent chat-channels integration
failure; that test passed in isolation. GitHub CI
[39347996059](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39347996059)
passed on the exact latest commit: 55 successful checks and two skipped
draft-only Storybook jobs.
- Greptile reviewed the exact latest commit at 5/5 with no new comments
or open review threads. GitHub reports the branch as cleanly mergeable.

## Risks

- This PR changes 206 files and exceeds the repository's 100-file review
target. Review by commit and consider a scoped split before merge.
- Design Proposals are staged references. Fixture interactions do not
prove API behavior, permissions, or provider execution.
- UI changes to shared controls may affect pages outside the proposal
sandbox. Focused browser checks and the full CI matrix passed.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family. The exact runtime model ID and context
window are not exposed in this session. The model used reasoning, code
execution, browser inspection, and local tests. Earlier branch commits
were also AI-assisted in this Codex conversation.

DottaandPaperclip 3bafac12f7 refactor: remove automatic productivity reviews (#13263)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Its recovery loop keeps assigned work moving after execution
failures.
> - Productivity review used run counts, comment counts, and elapsed
time to create management tasks.
> - Infrastructure failures could satisfy those rules and create more
tasks without evidence that the source work needed management review.
> - This pull request removes that detector and its continuation holds.
> - Bounded recovery, budgets, explicit blockers, and normal review
stages remain in place.
> - Existing task records stay readable and unchanged.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #5897. That request describes unwanted automatic productivity
reviews and asks to preserve existing tasks. This change retires the
feature instead of adding another configuration switch.

Related prior approaches: Refs #9191, Refs #12489. Those changes
excluded infrastructure failures or bounded review creation. This
removal replaces the detector rather than tuning its thresholds.

## What Changed

- Delete the scheduled detector, automatic task creation, evidence
refresh, and productivity continuation holds.
- Remove computed productivity fields, special attention items, badges,
and Storybook fixtures.
- Retain historical origin values, decision compatibility, and recovery
recursion exclusions. Add no migration and change no existing task data.
- Update the execution contract. Replace feature tests with regressions
for legacy task reads, ordinary attention, and bounded continuation in
the presence of an old review.

## Verification

- Targeted attention, issue-route, startup, and UI tests: 4 files and
101 tests passed.
- Updated issue-route and UI tests: 2 files and 61 tests passed.
- Bounded continuation regression: 2 cases passed, including a legacy
review plus pre-dispatch cancellation churn.
- `pnpm check:token-gates`: all four gates passed.
- `git diff --check`: passed.
- `pnpm build-storybook`: passed.
- Greptile: 5/5 on `a5a612eea`, with no actionable findings.
- Scheduler and historical recovery regressions: 2 files and 28 tests
passed.
- Repository `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`: passed.
- The complete `pnpm test:run` suite passed across the CI server,
serialized-server, and workspace shards on `a5a612eea`. Stopped the
duplicate local monolithic run after the full CI suite passed; no
completed local full-suite result is claimed. The targeted local suites
above passed.
- CI serialized shard 5 initially hit a 10-second timeout in the first
interaction-route test. The complete file passed locally (78 tests),
then the single CI rerun passed.
- All CI gates are green, including the build and end-to-end suites.
- A local merge check against current `master` (`ce09ea40b`) completed
without conflicts.

## Risks

- API responses no longer include the computed `productivityReview`
field. Consumers must stop using it.
- The scheduler no longer creates management work from elapsed time, run
counts, or missing comments. This is the intended behavior change.
- Existing review tasks and explicit dependencies remain in place.
Historical origins still prevent recursive recovery treatment. No task
cleanup or data migration occurs.
- The native review handoff repair is separate from this removal.

## Model Used

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

678728f650 feat: maintained in_review review-path contract + stalled-review actions (#10675)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents move issues to `in_review` and rely on a "review path" (an
interaction, an approval, a monitor, or a named reviewer) to tell them
who decides next.
> - That review path can silently disappear. A user comment supersedes
the pending interaction, a monitor is exhausted, or a run ends without
restoring a path. The issue then sits in `in_review` with nobody
reviewing it and no visible action.
> - Such issues become invisible zombies. Nobody knows a decision is
owed, so the work stalls forever.
> - This pull request makes the review path a maintained invariant,
exposes a `reviewAttention` surface, and gives every stalled review
three inline actions in the UI.
> - The benefit is that an `in_review` issue always shows who reviews
it, or shows an amber "nobody is reviewing this" notice with one-click
Approve, Request changes, and Send back to work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

This pull request describes the problem inline. The tracking issue is
internal.

**Subsystem affected**

The review and attention loop that agents and humans share: the
`in_review` status, the `reviewAttention` surface, the /decisions
attention feed, and the issue-page review panel.

**Problem or motivation**

Agent-owned issues in `in_review` can lose their last review path. A
user comment supersedes the pending interaction. A monitor is exhausted.
A run ends without restoring a path. The issue then sits in `in_review`
with no reviewer and no visible action. It becomes an invisible zombie
and the work never progresses.

**Proposed solution**

Maintain the review path as a server invariant. Expose a
`reviewAttention` field that says what is under review, who decides, and
since when. Render a persistent review panel on the issue page and
inline actions on the /decisions feed. Keep human PATCHes into
`in_review` ungated, but record the requesting user so the panel never
renders empty.

**Alternatives considered**

A pure background auto-recovery sweep. This stays opt-in and is not
enough on its own, because it is invisible to the human. A bare status
banner. This is rejected, because it gives no action to resolve the
stall.

**Roadmap alignment**

This improves the core review and attention loop that both agents and
humans use every day.

## What Changed

- **Server — maintained review-path invariant:** when an issue enters or
sits in `in_review`, the server derives and persists a review path
(interaction, approval, monitor, or the requesting user) and recovers a
stale path with one bounded wake instead of leaving the issue pathless.
- **Server — `reviewAttention` surface:** a new field describes what is
under review (bound target with links), who decides, since when, and
whether the review is stalled. Stalled agent-assigned reviews are now
included in the attention feed.
- **Server — inline stalled-review decisions:** secured routes let a
permitted responder Approve (→ `done`), Request changes (→ `todo` + wake
carrying the note), or Send back to work (→ `todo` + wake) directly from
the attention feed.
- **Server — resume-intent wake:** an `in_review -> todo` transition now
wakes the assigned agent so a resumed review is not dropped.
- **Server — user-entry symmetry:** user PATCHes into `in_review` stay
ungated (no 422 for humans) and record the requesting user, who becomes
the named responder when no other path exists.
- **UI — review panel:** a persistent `IssueReviewPanel` renders above
the thread whenever status is `in_review`. The covered state shows the
bound target, responder, and outcomes and hoists the pending
interaction/approval card. The stalled state shows the amber notice plus
the three actions.
- **UI — decisions card actions:** the same three actions render inline
on the /decisions `AttentionQueueRow`.
- **UI — responsive fix:** the stalled action row stacks to full-width
buttons at phone width and returns to a horizontal row at `sm` and up.
New 390px stories capture the phone layout.

## Verification

- `cd ui && npx vitest run src/components/IssueReviewPanel.test.tsx
src/components/AttentionQueueRow.test.tsx src/lib/attention.test.ts
src/api/issues.test.ts` — 91 tests pass.
- Server suites added and updated: `issue-review-attention`,
`issue-stalled-review-decision-routes`, `review-path-recovery`,
`recovery-observability`, and related route/liveness tests (run by CI).
- A designer reviewed the UI at 390px and desktop in light and dark
themes on both the issue-page panel and the /decisions card. The stalled
action row stacks cleanly at phone width with no overlap and keeps the
horizontal row on desktop.

## Risks

- **Migration:** adds migration `0200` (next after master `0199`, no
renumber). It extends the agent-wakeup-requests schema and is additive.
- **Behavioral shift:** `in_review -> todo` now dispatches a wake. This
is intended (resume intent) and covered by tests.
- **Authz:** the inline decision routes are permission-gated. Only a
permitted responder sees and can trigger the actions.
- Overall risk is moderate and contained to the review and attention
loop.

code execution.

DottaandPaperclip 8e7f1c03eb feat(decisions): improve desk triage and queue parity (#10785)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The decisions desk and queue help operators find work that needs a
human decision.
> - The current views use different grouping, sorting, and labels.
> - Repeated confirmation requests can also leave stale pending actions
in the queue.
> - Blocked-work attention can point at an intermediate issue instead of
the terminal blocker.
> - This pull request aligns the server contract and both user
interfaces.
> - The benefit is a smaller, clearer queue that ranks the decisions
with the largest impact.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related PR: #10774

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The decisions desk and queue currently use different triage rules. They
can show stale repeated confirmations and can rank blocked work by an
intermediate issue.

**Subsystem affected**

This change affects attention aggregation, issue thread interactions,
shared attention contracts, and the decisions user interface.

**Current behavior**

The desk uses a can-wait group that has no clear arrival meaning. The
queue has fewer controls than the desk. Repeated pending confirmations
remain actionable. Blocked-work rows do not always identify the terminal
actionable blocker.

**Proposed behavior**

Group desk items by arrival date, and reserve Decide now for explicit
due dates. Use one toolbar and shelf model on both pages. Supersede
older repeated pending confirmations. Aggregate blocked work under the
terminal actionable blocker and rank it by impact.

**Reason and benefit**

Operators get one consistent triage model. The badge reflects new and
overdue work. High-impact blockers move to the top. Duplicate
confirmation work no longer consumes attention.

**Breaking changes**

The attention summary field `decideNowCount` changes to
`deskBadgeCount`. Consumers must use the new field. Older repeated
confirmation interactions can now finish with the
`superseded_by_newer_request` outcome.

## What Changed

- Supersede older pending confirmation requests for the same issue and
record the mutation in activity history.
- Resolve blocked-work attention to actionable terminal blockers,
suppress live blocker trees, and rank rows by blocked-work impact.
- Group the decisions desk into New today and Earlier, and count new
plus overdue work in the desk badge.
- Share the decision toolbar and shelf components across the desk and
queue.
- Add queue grouping, sorting, filtering, aging, visible training
controls, and clearer recommendation copy.
- Add server, shared-contract, and user-interface tests for the new
behavior.

## Verification

- `pnpm check:token-gates`
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `env -u AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID -u AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY pnpm test:run` (all
server, UI, CLI, shared, and catalog tests passed; one fixed five-second
DB timeout flaked under full-suite load)
- `NODE_ENV=test pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db exec vitest run
src/status-card-migrations.test.ts` (passed in isolation)
- `pnpm build`

## Risks

- The attention summary field rename requires synchronized consumers.
- Terminal-blocker traversal uses cycle and depth guards. A malformed
dependency graph can stop at the last safe node.
- The new arrival grouping changes which items contribute to the
decisions badge.
- Superseding repeated confirmations changes the terminal state of older
pending interactions.

discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. Feature PRs that overlap
with planned core work may need to be redirected — check the roadmap
first. See `CONTRIBUTING.md`.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex with GPT-5. The runtime did not expose a dated model
snapshot or context-window size. The model used reasoning, repository
tools, code execution, and test execution.

0a09e4d975 feat(decisions): add desk workflow and retention (#10672)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The Decisions desk shows work that needs a human decision
> - The queue foundation can group and rank decision work
> - Operators also need a focused daily view and a safe way to handle
old work
> - This pull request adds the desk controls, the aging shelf, and
reversible retention
> - It also binds bulk archive decisions to the exact reviewed item set
> - The benefit is a smaller daily queue without lost or orphaned work

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting: server, UI, database, and shared contracts.

**Problem or motivation**

Decision work can grow into one large company list. Operators need quick
queue and date controls. Old items also need a safe retention path that
does not delete work.

**Proposed solution**

Add queue and date controls to the Decisions desk. Compute the aging
shelf on the server. Archive idle items after 90 days unless an operator
keeps them. Keep archived items searchable and revivable. Notify origin
agents in one batch per sweep. Bind bulk archive proposals to a signed,
exact item manifest.

**Alternatives considered**

Client-only aging can drift across browsers and source kinds. Deleting
old rows removes audit and recovery paths. An unsigned dynamic bulk
query can archive items that the reviewer did not inspect.

**Roadmap alignment**

This work supports the Work Queues and decision-memory directions in
`ROADMAP.md`. It extends the Decisions and attention-feed foundation
from #10651. Related earlier work includes #9380, #10010, and #10474.

## What Changed

- Added the queue rail, date chips, decide split, triage strip, queue
page, and aging shelf UI.
- Added server-owned shelf state with per-queue retention overrides.
- Added reversible retention state, archive history, and an idempotent
notification outbox.
- Added the 90-day archive sweeper, Keep exemption, archived feed query,
and revive actions.
- Added one origin-agent notification per agent and sweep.
- Added signed bulk archive proposals with exact-set and version checks.
- Persisted queue-exclusion reasons atomically and kept cross-domain
source resolution per-item until it has an exact-set transaction
contract.
- Added API contracts, OpenAPI entries, migration coverage, focused
tests, and Storybook screens.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm test:run` (server: 329 files and 3,453 tests passed; UI: 408
files and 3,362 tests passed)
- `env -u AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID -u AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY pnpm exec vitest
run cli/src/__tests__/secrets.test.ts`
- `pnpm build`
- `pnpm check:token-gates`
- Focused retention, attention, decisions, migration replay, startup,
and UI API tests.
- Complete queue snapshot regression with 51 items across the normal
50-item page boundary.

The unmodified CLI test reports one warning assertion in this runtime
because the harness injects static AWS credential variables. The
isolated test passes when those two variables are removed.

## Risks

- The migration adds retention and notification outbox tables. It uses
idempotent table, index, and foreign-key creation.
- Retention runs on the heartbeat scheduler interval. Compare-and-set
version checks prevent stale archive writes.
- Bulk archive acceptance fails closed when authority, activity,
version, or the reviewed set changes.
- Archive is reversible and does not delete source records.

context-window size is not exposed in this runtime.

DottaandPaperclip 30c49c8327 feat(decisions): add queues and prioritized attention feed (#10651)
<!-- Write all pull request text in Simplified Technical English
(ASD-STE100): short sentences, one instruction per sentence, simple
approved vocabulary, and the active voice. -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source control plane for companies of AI
agents.
> - Operators use the attention feed to find decisions that need action.
> - The feed has eleven source kinds, but it has no durable queue or
triage state.
> - The feed also returns every item and lacks decision deadlines,
snooze state, and decision-focused ordering.
> - This pull request adds secure queue sidecars and enriches the
attention feed with triage data, filters, cursor pagination, and
decide-now ranking.
> - The benefit is a bounded feed that can show the most urgent
decisions first without weakening source visibility rules.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

This pull request replaces the closed
[#10634](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/10634). It
combines that queue foundation with the dependent attention-feed change
as one review unit.

**Subsystem affected**

Database schema, shared contracts, server authorization and REST APIs,
and the UI attention client library.

**Problem or motivation**

The attention feed can contain hundreds of mixed decision items.
Operators cannot group them into durable queues, set a decision
deadline, snooze an item, or request a bounded page ordered by urgency.
The current client must download the full feed on each refresh.

**Proposed solution**

Store queue membership and triage state by stable attention identity.
Re-authorize each source during queue reads and writes. Enrich attention
items with queue, deadline, snooze, expiry, rule, and origin data. Add
activity and queue filters, opaque cursor pagination, decide-focused
ordering, and a decide-now count.

**Alternatives considered**

Adding queue fields to every source would duplicate schema and
authorization logic across eleven source kinds. Client-only filtering
and sorting would still transfer the full feed and would make pagination
unstable.

**Roadmap alignment**

This change improves the core decision-attention surface and operator
oversight. It does not implement the separate general-purpose work queue
milestone in `ROADMAP.md`.

## What Changed

- Added company-scoped queue, membership, triage, and append-only event
tables with actor and run provenance.
- Added queue CRUD, item membership, starter-rule discovery, and
decide-by and snooze endpoints.
- Kept source authorization on each queue mutation, read, and count.
- Added attention fields for expiry, rule, origin agent, queues,
decide-by attribution, and snooze state.
- Added activity date filters, queue filters, opaque cursor pagination,
and configurable page limits.
- Added decide-now ordering by deadline, expiry, severity, and activity.
- Added `decideNowCount` and excluded actively snoozed items from the
default feed.
- Updated the shared and UI client contracts.
- Added focused server, route, OpenAPI, and UI client tests.

## Verification

## Risks

- The migration adds four company-scoped tables and provenance foreign
keys. Migration numbering and safety checks pass.
- Attention reads can lazily create starter queues and memberships.
Inserts are idempotent, audited, and transactional.
- Cursor validity depends on the filtered feed. The API returns a clear
validation error when the cursor item no longer exists in that feed.
- Queue reads re-check source visibility. This favors correct
authorization over fewer queries.

9c1f8e7887 feat(decisions): add first-class propose mode (#10010)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents can currently perform many mutations directly, while humans
often need a durable review point before cross-issue or destructive
actions occur
> - Existing approvals and issue-thread interactions do not provide a
standalone, reusable object for presenting options, collecting typed
inputs, detecting stale targets, and auditing effect execution
> - The control plane therefore needs a first-class propose mode that
separates an agent's recommendation from the governed mutation it may
cause
> - This pull request adds Decisions v1 across the database, shared
contracts, server execution and telemetry, agent skill guidance, and
operator UI
> - The benefit is that agents can propose multi-option actions safely
while operators get explicit provenance, fail-closed execution,
per-effect results, and a focused attention workflow

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

### Subsystem affected

Cross-cutting: `packages/db`, `packages/shared`, `server`, and `ui`.

### Problem or motivation

Agents need a governed way to propose consequential work without
immediately mutating issues, especially when one choice can affect
several issue trees. Existing approvals and issue-thread interactions do
not provide a standalone object with typed options, target snapshots,
effect-level authorization, expiration, execution outcomes, and reusable
attention-feed presentation.

### Proposed solution

Add first-class Decisions that store options and typed inputs, surface
open proposals in the operator attention feed, validate target freshness
and the origin-agent/operator authorization intersection at decision
time, execute a bounded set of auditable effects, and retain terminal
outcomes. Decisions v1 supports comments, status and assignee changes,
follow-up issue creation, blocker resolution, and issue-tree
cancellation, plus bundle grouping, expiration/dismissal, rule-key
telemetry, and agent-facing API guidance.

### Alternatives considered

- Extend approvals with arbitrary effects: rejected because approvals
represent governed yes/no actions and would become an unsafe generic
mutation envelope.
- Model every proposal as an issue-thread interaction: rejected because
decisions can span several targets and need independent lifecycle,
telemetry, idempotency, and effect results.
- Let agents perform the mutation and ask for retrospective review:
rejected because it removes the pre-execution governance boundary this
feature is meant to provide.

### Roadmap alignment

Aligns with `ROADMAP.md` sections **Agent Reviews and Approvals**,
**Enforced Outcomes**, **MCP Tool Gateway & Apps (governed tool
access)**, and **Activity History** by making explicit decisions,
authorization gates, auditable execution, and terminal outcomes
first-class control-plane objects.

### Additional context

This does not replace existing approvals or issue-thread interactions,
and it does not add an unrestricted generic mutation effect.

## What Changed

- Added company-scoped decision, option, target, and effect-execution
schema plus migration and shared TypeScript/Zod contracts.
- Added decision routes and services for propose, list/get, decide,
dismiss, cancel, target freshness checks, authorization intersection,
idempotency, activity logging, and execution auditing.
- Added rule-key decision telemetry and attention-feed metadata so open
decisions are visible and measurable.
- Added agent skill documentation for proposing and resolving decisions
through the Paperclip API.
- Added the Decisions UI: API client, query keys, inline attention
resolver, bundle grouping, target-issue strip, terminal history,
destructive confirmation, and per-effect result rendering.
- Added server service coverage, DecisionCard state tests, and Storybook
stories for the supported visual states.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm test:run` — 2,876 passed, 1 skipped, with one unrelated
cross-suite cleanup-order failure in
`heartbeat-responsible-user-invariant.test.ts`; the failing file passes
in isolation (`6/6`).
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-responsible-user-invariant.test.ts` — passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/components/DecisionCard.test.tsx` — passed (`9/9`).
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/authz-existence-oracle-guard.test.ts
src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts` — passed (`5/5`).
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/decisions-service.test.ts` — passed (`16/16`).
- `pnpm --filter paperclipai exec vitest run
src/__tests__/company-import-export-e2e.test.ts` — passed (`1/1`).
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` and `pnpm --filter
paperclipai typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm build` — passed.
- Rebased-head focused suite — passed (`6` files, `88` tests): shared
decision contracts, Decisions service, OpenAPI routes, startup feedback
export, DecisionCard states, and attention helpers. The follow-up
stale-secondary-target regression passes in the DecisionCard suite
(`10/10`).
- Rebased-head scoped typechecks — passed for `@paperclipai/shared`,
`@paperclipai/db`, `@paperclipai/server`, and `@paperclipai/ui`.
- Rebased-head migration numbering and safety checks — passed after
renumbering the additive migration to `0193` and making it replay-safe
for environments that applied the earlier feature-branch number.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — passed with all gates clean.
- GitHub PR workflow and Greptile review for
`1f9f7645882d05dfdd9c99377c03a1f53f20e8be` — running after the
stale-secondary-target fix and PR metadata refresh on July 27, 2026.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui build-storybook` exposes an existing
Storybook version mismatch (`storybook` 10.4.6 vs
`@storybook/addon-docs` 10.5.0); Decisions stories were validated with
the docs addon temporarily disabled and the tracked config remains
unchanged.

## Risks

- **Migration:** Adds replay-safe migration `0193`; migration numbering
and safety checks pass. The new tables and indexes are additive.
- **Authorization:** Effect execution intersects the proposing agent's
permissions with the responsible user context and fails closed; mistakes
could reject a valid proposal rather than silently over-authorize it.
- **Concurrency:** Target snapshots and idempotency keys protect against
stale or duplicate execution, but reviewers should focus on mixed-effect
partial outcomes and retry behavior.
- **UI:** Decisions are integrated into the existing attention feed
rather than a separate navigation surface, reducing routing risk but
increasing the importance of attention-item metadata compatibility.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex CLI using `gpt-5.6-sol` for final PR preparation, review
fixes, and verification; repository tools and code execution were
enabled, and context-window size is not exposed in this runtime.

TonioandClaude Opus 5 492555aaf9 design(decisions): flatten decision cards to two task-borrowed types (#10474)
The Decisions queue ran five parallel colour/icon vocabularies chosen by
source kind, plus a separate severity badge, so two rows needing the same
response could look unrelated and none of it matched the task list.

Every row now resolves to one of two kinds, each borrowing the task status
it corresponds to: blocking renders as `blocked`, review as `in_review`,
both through StatusGlyph and the existing --status-task-icon-* tokens.
Source kinds keep their own wording; only colour and icon merge.

Card anatomy follows the design mock: no left accent rail, rounded cards
16px apart, a "/"-separated meta breadcrumb, a named See more / See less
control, and no separately tinted drawer when expanded. Verb order is
fixed across both states. Severity moves from chrome to a toolbar filter.

Four defects fixed along the way:
- blocked rows reported themselves as their own blocker (server-side)
- the task key was missing wherever the row's subject IS the task
- the task quicklook stuck open, because closing handed focus back to a
  trigger that opens on focus
- the card ring appeared on click, and only on cards with a toggle

Also: the standard task preview is aligned to its trigger's text and
scales out of it, the task eyebrow renders its project as a tile, and the
first motion tokens land alongside the disclosure and crossfade.

Supersedes #9574 and #9575.

8a0db228a6 perf(ui): improve Decisions scrolling performance (#9468)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Operators use the Decisions page to review an uncapped attention
feed across active, snoozed, and dismissed items
> - Large feeds mounted every row eagerly, and routine interactions
re-rendered the full queue
> - That made initial paint and scrolling progressively slower as
decision history accumulated
> - This pull request bounds rendering, stabilizes row props, and lets
off-screen rows skip layout and paint work
> - The benefit is a responsive Decisions page even for companies with
large attention histories

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

### What happened?

Opening `/decisions` for a company with a large attention history
eagerly mounted every visible-feed row. Expanding, selecting,
dismissing, snoozing, or restoring an item could also re-render the
entire queue.

### Expected behavior

The page should render a bounded initial window, progressively reveal
more rows near the scroll boundary, and avoid re-rendering unaffected
rows during interactions.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Populate a company with hundreds of attention items.
2. Open `/decisions`.
3. Scroll and interact with individual rows.
4. Observe increasing initial render, layout, paint, and interaction
cost on the previous implementation.

### Paperclip version or commit

Reproduced on `master` before this PR.

### Deployment and installation

Local development, built from source. This is a core UI issue, not
adapter- or database-specific.

### Additional context

Searched open public issues and PRs; no duplicate was found.

## What Changed

- Added a pure `planAttentionRenderRows` helper that allocates one
render budget across active groups and open snoozed/dismissed curtains
in document order.
- Render 50 rows initially and add 100 more when the Decisions page
approaches the scroll boundary.
- Memoized `AttentionQueueRow`, stabilized parent callbacks and inbox
dismissal actions, and passed row items through a shared expand
callback.
- Added `content-visibility: auto` and intrinsic containment so
accumulated off-screen rows avoid unnecessary layout and paint work.
- Added render-plan coverage and a regression test proving identical row
props do not re-render after a parent update.

## Verification

- `pnpm -C ui typecheck`
- `pnpm -C ui exec vitest run src/lib/attention.test.ts
src/components/AttentionQueueRow.test.tsx
src/components/Sidebar.test.tsx src/pages/Inbox.test.tsx` — 96 tests
passed
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — all gates clean

## Risks

- Low risk: the change is UI-only and does not alter API or database
contracts.
- The main behavioral risk is incorrect row-budget accounting across
collapsed groups or open curtains; the pure planner has focused tests
for ordering, truncation, and collapsed/closed sections.
- Progressive rendering means rows beyond the current budget are
intentionally absent until scrolling nears the boundary, matching the
existing Issues list pattern.

> This is a targeted performance fix and does not overlap planned core
feature work in `ROADMAP.md`.

## Model Used

- Anthropic Claude Fable 5 assisted with the implementation using
repository tools and code execution.
- OpenAI Codex `gpt-5.6-sol` prepared and verified the PR with high
reasoning effort, repository tools, shell execution, and
GitHub/Paperclip API access. The runtime did not expose a context-window
size.

36ec79c196 feat: add attention queue and Decisions surface (#9380)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the control plane for autonomous AI companies, where
operators need a reliable way to find and act on work awaiting their
input.
> - The attention and issue-thread interaction subsystems expose those
decision points across server APIs and the board UI.
> - The previous navigation and interaction presentation left these
actions fragmented and did not offer a controlled rollout for the
Decisions surface.
> - This branch adds the attention feed, richer interaction cards,
grouping, dismiss/snooze behavior, and a gated Decisions sidebar entry.
> - It also keeps experimental settings and API contracts synchronized,
with an idempotent migration for the new dismissal state.
> - This pull request delivers the complete, tested attention/Decisions
experience as one reviewable unit.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- Adds an operator-focused attention queue and Decisions experience:
grouped decision cards, semantic interaction actions, dismiss/snooze
handling, resilient interaction states, and an experimental flag to
control the Decisions navigation entry.


## Feature Context

### Problem or Motivation

Operators currently have to hunt across approvals, interactions, failed
runs, and budget alerts to find decisions that need their action.

### Proposed Solution

Provide a gated Decisions attention queue that groups actionable items,
supports direct resolution, and preserves operator control through
dismiss and snooze actions.

### Alternatives Considered

Keep separate, source-specific views only; this leaves cross-cutting
operator decisions fragmented and harder to prioritize.

### Roadmap Alignment

This improves the V1 control-plane operator workflow by making pending
governed actions discoverable in one company-scoped surface.

## What Changed

- Added server attention-feed services, routes, interaction handling,
dismiss/snooze support, and an idempotent `0145` inbox-dismissal
migration.
- Added shared attention, inbox-dismissal, and experimental-settings
contracts.
- Added Decisions/attention UI, interaction-card states, sidebar
badge/navigation integration, grouping, keyboard support, and Storybook
coverage.
- Added tests for attention behavior, thread interactions, settings
normalization, dismissals, and API behavior.
- Removed generated screenshots from the final PR diff and rebased the
branch onto current `master`.

## Verification

- `pnpm check:token-gates` — passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/shared/src/issue-thread-interactions.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/attention-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/inbox-dismissals.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interactions-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interaction-routes.test.ts
ui/src/lib/attention.test.ts
ui/src/components/AttentionQueueRow.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueThreadInteractionCard.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/InstanceExperimentalSettings.test.tsx` — passed: 158 tests
across 9 focused files.
- GitHub Actions for `ad636f560`: build and typecheck/release-registry
have passed; remaining general-server and Greptile checks are in
progress.

## Risks

- Moderate: this is a cross-layer attention/interaction feature with a
new migration and navigation behavior.
- The `enableDecisions` experimental setting defaults to off, limiting
rollout impact.
- Existing dismissal data is backfilled to `dismiss`; the migration is
idempotent and uses guarded constraint creation.

> ROADMAP.md was checked; no duplicate planned core feature was
identified. Related open pull requests were searched before opening this
PR.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-5.5 via Codex CLI, with tool use and local code execution.
Context-window size unavailable in this environment.
