DottaandPaperclip 7c247243e5 Qualify and package Copilot for ordinary installations (#15706)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A provider must work through normal installed packages on local and
Daytona environments.
> - Candidate-only success does not prove that the shipped package
contains the manifest and native runtime needed for Daytona.
> - The release must preserve saved-token access and task lifecycle
guarantees.
> - This pull request will qualify Copilot and include the exact-source
remote manifest in normal release archives.
> - The benefit is a reviewable part of the Copilot production release.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15701, #15703 and #15705. Supersedes qualification work in #15563
and the original candidate in #14434. Base: #15705.

## What Changed

- Keep Copilot discovery passive during reconnect reconciliation;
refresh on explicit opening, account/environment changes and reconnect.

- Retain the selected Product cases, permission/continuity evidence and
cleanup checks.
- Build the Linux provider manifest from the existing pinned Docker
stage in the cloud.
- Join all four native daemon receipts with that manifest before server
packing.
- Reject missing or incompatible remote authority during normal release
assembly; retain historical workflow compatibility.
- Promote the completed profile47 qualification marker, publish the
current qualification record and preserve every failed attempt.
- Keep one current release checklist and the shipped-canary gates
explicit.

## Verification

Runtime #15701 is merged at `d855e550ad8d2a267312983f26457aabf5393c3a`.
History #15703 is merged at `df80616d98119cbf5abd40549794d9980a5fabf6`.
Remaining source
[`42bcbd61299655f7e37aabe6bb5f19bba770ad1d`](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/commit/42bcbd61299655f7e37aabe6bb5f19bba770ad1d)
contains the four-file authorization repair. The remaining PR trees
preserve six nonoverlapping files from the newer public mainline
managed-settings fix and the CI-owned lockfile. No unrelated provider is
enabled.

The security finding is repaired: existing-agent discovery requires
`agent_config:update` before connection selection or token resolution.
The saved environment is the default. Authorized editors can select a
prospective environment. Both denied board-viewer and agent-reader
regressions fail on the original source. All49 route tests and server
typecheck pass with the fix. Denied requests perform no connection
selection, credential resolution or probe. Current-head security scans
pass on both remaining PRs; the repaired thread is resolved.

Copilot CLI1.0.88 and profile47 retain digest
`sha256:55044aa235e88b3fe36ec8a556ee1e3382590870aab907e4462ef7d64af49cea`.
The [qualification
record](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/42bcbd61299655f7e37aabe6bb5f19bba770ad1d/doc/plans/2026-10-20-copilot-qualification-v47.json)
reports20/20 Product cells,154 assertions and7/7 protocol cases,46
assertions against frozen normal installed source
`c2616370800f5f6df45246b0890ba35a7cd2faab`. The exact qualification
model is `gpt-5.6-luna`. Every passing Product case confirms cleanup.
Original failures remain recorded; automatic behavior retries are
disabled. The route-only authorization repair changes no bound
runtime/profile bytes and does not relabel the frozen campaign.

The ordinary installed remote journey passed saved-token selection,
model discovery, normal UI save/reopen, metadata-only Test, completed
task, accepted receipt and exact19-byte browser download. An open model
catalog caused no additional discovery requests during117seconds. Actual
installed runtime smokes passed on macOS ARM64, macOS x64 under Rosetta
and native Linux x64 on Daytona. Raw token browser entry was not
exercised; encrypted connection creation used the normal API.

The first Daytona file attempt timed out during delayed semantic
dispatch; its precise stalled layer remains unresolved. Independent
ordinary remote delivery and the other19 Product cells passed before one
instrumented recheck passed8/8 with unchanged source,prompt,assertions
and deadlines. No causal latency repair is claimed.

Before the authorization repair, all four final PR heads passed required
verify/E2E and fresh Greptile5/5 reviews with zero unresolved threads.
Current-head CI/review is running for the two repaired heads. Local
focused checks retain129 connection,59 runner,72 shared-eval and88
recovery/workspace passes, plus migration safety and token gates. The
additive Copilot migration is361; released master history is preserved.

[Cloud normal-package
run39414239704](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39414239704)
builds the pre-security source4f3f. All four native producers and Linux
package assembly pass; the final clean installed consumers are
finishing. All18 retained archives match their hashes;37,863 regular
files contain zero selected credentials. That package does not contain
the later route repair. The actual final published package must include
it and pass the local/Daytona live canaries. The frozen Daytona image
remains published and independently verified. No separate full-image
scan is claimed. Docker builds run in the cloud.

**Remaining:** current-head CI/review, setup and qualification merges,
final publication, and ordinary local/Daytona canaries against the
actual shipped package. The user explicitly authorizes the maintainer
review override; CI remains a merge gate. No production deployment is
claimed. Provider USD remains unknown and GitHub-attributed.

## Risks

An omitted or mismatched image manifest prevents ordinary Daytona
startup. Final normal archives must contain the matching image authority
and platform daemons. The completed runtime campaign remains bound to
its original source; the final UI-only repair needs its own
normal-install setup proof. Credit notices are not measured USD
receipts. Native steering, native plan mode and detached work remain
outside this release.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6. The exact serving model ID and context
window are not exposed in this task. Used for code changes, review and
tool-assisted verification.

b448710986 fix: derive startup warmth from per-layer reuse evidence (#16908)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip helps people manage AI agents and inspect their work.
> - Agent startup can reuse a lease, workspace, Runner, process, or
session.
> - A session ID can remain the same when other resources are new.
> - The old cold/warm label did not show these separate decisions.
> - This pull request records closed reuse receipts and derives labels
from them.
> - Reports now show partial reuse and missing evidence.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #11685. That issue tracks a specific ACPX fingerprint repair. This
change records reuse evidence across startup resources. It does not
repeat that repair.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Startup labels in the operator trace and Product E2E reports.

**Current behavior**

A cached runtime or a continuous session can suggest a warm startup even
when workspace staging or provider launch work occurs.

**Proposed behavior**

Record each layer's reuse decision and a closed reason. Record observed
provider launch counts. Use `warm`, `cold`, `partial_reuse`, or
`unknown` from those receipts. Keep old runs unknown when they have no
receipts.

## What Changed

- Add local run-log receipts for the lease, workspace, Runner, provider
process, and provider session.
- Count physical ACPX launches, including respawns. Preserve the reason
for a new process.
- Reuse native workspace adoption and session lifecycle evidence. Keep
native and bridged remote provider-process reuse and launch counts
unknown where physical evidence is absent.
- Show the per-run summary in retained results and the dashboard. Keep
missing legacy values explicit.
- Set the legacy trace boolean only for fully evidenced cold or warm
startup. Keep the operator OTLP gate. Add no first-party Telemetry.
- Test full reuse, workspace invalidation, two direct provider launches
with session continuity, and report generation.
- Start the final diagnostic write without waiting for persistence. Keep
lease cleanup independent of a stalled event sink.
- Keep remote provider evidence unknown after runtime setup fails or the
host relay starts twice.
- Align a stale Pi support-test expectation with current master profile
28 and its suite fingerprint. Keep the qualification rules unchanged.

## Verification

- Passed: all 319 runtime, startup-timing, reuse-summary, and native
workspace-history tests. Disposable local Git tests used the native Git
binary.
- Passed on the current commit: all 2,768 Runner E2E support tests
across 128 files. This includes report and history tests for generated
HTML and normalized JSON.
- Passed: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils typecheck`.
- Passed on `df60f8dbdbfcb6d80c84cd3bf563f8d58b2f9f03`: all PR CI gates,
including repository typecheck and build, all test shards, and browser
tests. Both automated reviews are 5/5. GitHub reports 55 successful
checks, one neutral review, and two skipped Storybook checks.
- The first server shard run failed because an unchanged
workspace-runtime fixture did not accept health connections within 10
seconds. Its isolated local test and the single failed-jobs rerun both
pass. This establishes recovery; the cause of the first timeout remains
unknown.
- Passed in the hosted source run on this exact commit: recursive
typecheck, token gates, the large Runner E2E typecheck, Runner E2E unit
tests, and build. The retained `source.txt` matches this PR head.
- The extra unsharded `pnpm test:run` reached its 60-minute limit (exit
124). It has no complete verdict. The broad workflow therefore reports
failure. No assertion-failure marker appears in the retained partial
log. Full-suite acceptance uses the passing canonical PR CI partitions.
A read-only inventory check found no gaps across 1,023 general server
files, 161 serialized suites, and 20 workspace projects. The separate
chat/native Runner lanes cover the excluded server files. No tests or
timeouts were weakened. The local environment has 4 GiB of memory. Use
CI for the large Runner E2E typecheck.
- The initial report tests failed because the harness could not resolve
package imports from the repository root. Relative source imports fixed
that failure.
- The first broad local run had timeouts from the environment Git
bridge. Native Git resolves the ancestry timeout and all runtime tests
pass. The added report fixture lacked its required screenshot; the
corrected report tests pass. A stale master assertion expected Pi
profile 27, while the generated profile is 28. Updated its expectation
and exact suite fingerprint; all 78 targeted support tests pass. The
clean full support run passes all 2,768 tests.
- The three review regression cases failed before repair. They showed
remote counts of zero and two, and a completed run that waited for the
final diagnostic sink. They now pass. The stalled-sink case keeps
persistence pending while the run returns, both bridge stops run once,
and the staging lock map becomes empty.
- Hosted evidence for this commit: [source
verification](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39335475416),
[retained command logs and status
table](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39335475416/artifacts/12228829282).
All listed commands exited zero except the incomplete unsharded test
command described above.
- The physical-launch test drives the executor's spawn callback twice.
The native workspace test uses real Git repositories and verifies reuse
and invalidation. These are deterministic tests, not a paid provider
qualification campaign.

## Risks

- Consumers must handle `partial_reuse` and `unknown`. Partial evidence
no longer produces a legacy cold/warm boolean.
- Native and remote bridged provider process evidence is still
unavailable on some paths. The report shows unknown values for those
paths.
- Receipt emission is best effort. Missing receipts reduce confidence in
a label and must not change execution or settlement.
- No schema migration, first-party Telemetry event, or endpoint default
changes are included.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, used reasoning, repository tools, and code
execution. The exact provider model ID and context window are not
exposed to this session. The existing implementation checkpoint was
preserved from the earlier agent run.

details)

DottaandPaperclip 8193abb936 feat(claude): default qualified macOS and Linux targets to Paperclip Runner (#15997)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip must run the selected agent on its selected host.
> - Claude needs verified packages for each supported target.
> - A Mac controller must select the correct Linux provider pack.
> - New defaults must follow package and execution evidence.
> - This PR adds Claude platform packaging and target-specific pack
selection.
> - Existing Codex Linux ARM64 behavior remains intact.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15683. This PR depends on #15993 and #15994. Related scope: #15422
and #15224.

## What Changed

- Reuse the merged four-target daemon producer/consumer matrix. Add
target-owned Linux provider packs and carry their immutable identities
through release assembly and vendoring.
- Reuse master’s landed pinned Claude SDK ARM64 executable admission and
retain package-integrity, architecture and no-follow admission.
- Select target-specific remote packs so Mac controllers can use Linux
hosts without a development pack override.
- Preserve read-only runtime context on SSH startup and resume without
accepting unverified old content.
- Check ordinary installed Claude readiness without injected package
authority. Retain Codex and Linux x64 consumer checks.
- Extend Claude automatic target selection for the remaining qualified
package targets. Retain unsupported-platform and external-override
behavior.
- Qualify managed Daytona snapshot names through provider IDs during
Claude Connect. Pin native acquisition to the measured ID. Preserve a
revocation marker after failed probes or target edits, and block native
acquisition until requalification instead of falling back to a mutable
name. Preserve immutable-image proof, company and account boundaries,
and Legacy acquisition.

## Verification

- Reconciled with master `9179d8dcc3e908c217fde4f63c9d08ccf8132eeb`
through the prerequisite stack, retaining the merged startup fix and
latest Codex Linux ARM64 behavior.
- [Four-target exact-source package
qualification](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39267321383)
passed on source `04e0202ca81387b17cbe7fd094a8338648356fe9`: all four
native builds, public-package assembly, Linux x64 verification and clean
installed consumers on Apple Silicon, Intel Mac and Linux ARM64. The
later master reconciliation adds shared OpenRouter attribution and
changes runtime source. This historical result keeps its original source
identity; [later
qualification](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39281100929)
passed at `dca62c7aeb4b45f0dd91a8e18d386a16a2658ef8`. It predates the
subsequent TypeScript startup fix.
- Fresh local product acceptance on integrated source
`b2c9fe43f9cd3bc5dd9d22552da0148845ba71a4` completed a useful file and
follow-up through native Claude/Opus 5.5, High effort and the API-key
connection. Both actual browser downloads were independently checked;
the revision preserves the original body and session continuity. Total
task estimates: $0.518432800. Ordinary web and API creation saved
defaults with the native experiment disabled.
- Local focused verification passed 993 startup/session tests, 243 UI
tests, 12 workflow security tests, direct server/UI TypeScript checks,
and token/palette gates before the last review changes. Initial
DB-backed snapshot pin/revocation coverage passed 18 cases; the final
serial route suites pass 122 credential/permission and 232
snapshot/environment cases after correcting a test hook timeout.
Current-head cloud suites pass.
- Preserved the failed pre-provider local fixture and its full pending
reservation. The successful fixture has no unpriced or pending usage.
Historical failed Cloud journeys, accounting holds, source identities
and subscription limitations remain in the dated plan.
- All Docker/Rust release production was performed in cloud CI. No local
Docker image was built. An inadvertently invoked local Rust prerequisite
was stopped.
- Current-head cloud CI is green. All three stack PRs have fresh
Greptile 5/5 reviews and zero unresolved review threads. Required
typecheck, test and build gates ran in cloud CI; Docker work stayed
remote. Earlier failed checks remain in their original runs.

- The final master merge preserves task-loading, permission,
skill-retention and OpenRouter changes. Pi uses a fresh combined profile
27, preserving both historical profile-24 declarations; Copilot remains
profile 22. Focused protocol checks passed 155 cases (one skipped), the
updated Pi attestation check passed 18 (one skipped), and 91
evaluation/catalog checks passed.

- Latest-application manual continuation passed in 37.942 seconds on
`695e5c005a85bddc8711d3fcddcaf6b7e1fb64d0`, with High effort, native
Opus 5.5, Anthropic API attribution, the same resumed Claude session, an
independently checked 635-byte file and persisted Done status. It uses
the earlier verified Mac daemon; the preceding-source package
qualification passed at `dca62c7aeb4b45f0dd91a8e18d386a16a2658ef8`. That
package run predates the small TypeScript startup fix and is not
relabeled as qualification for it.
- Upgrade limitation: changed compiled sidecar identity rejected old
durable launch state and recovery hit session-open bounds before
eventually resuming. That attempt was operator-cancelled and retained;
the successful manual continuation does not qualify seamless upgrades.

- Local latency profile, Opus 5.5/High unchanged: three alternating
real-ACP loopback samples per variant reduce median provider-ready time
from 5.081s to 4.034s. The matched real API task startup improves from
5.533s to 4.348s, but total reply time changes from 17.933s to 20.221s
because agent work varies. This establishes a startup saving of about
one second, not a consistent total-reply speedup. A real candidate
follow-up passed in 20.146s and resumed the same saved session. The
loopback fixture makes no external model requests; failed initial probes
remain retained.
- The startup change passes 107 focused runtime/effort/lease tests, 53
profile checks (one skipped), TypeScript checking and the
TypeScript-only runtime build. Native hire fixture checks pass 70 tests;
their first local run retained a socket-hangup failure and stale
OpenCode expectation, both accounted for before the passing rerun.
Broader required checks run in cloud CI.

## Risks

- **Experience needs improvement:** successful connection setup still
shows “Connection needs attention” because runtime checks are deferred.
Cold provider-pack upload took 122–126 seconds per run while the task
mainly showed “Thinking.” The tested Core-only preview excludes private
Cloud UI plugins; this is not full Cloud distribution or subscription
qualification. Desktop dark theme was tested; mobile and comprehensive
accessibility were not. The portable report validates, but gallery
interaction could not be inspected because host preview was queued.

- The optional supply-chain scan returned neutral/inconclusive because
GitHub Actions package coverage and infrastructure parsing are
unavailable. It is not counted as a successful supply-chain
qualification. Exact package, daemon and image integrity checks passed.
- A stale, missing or wrong-architecture pack must fail admission. It
must not change runner or target silently.
- Provider-pack source changes invalidate affected earlier execution
results. Existing unknown-cost and cleanup holds remain intact.
- Live subscription execution remains unverified under the API-key
qualification direction. Built-in authentication flows are retained.
ARM64 cloud-image production is deferred. Merge and production
deployment remain separate.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution and browser testing. The exact serving model ID and
context-window size are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 45b67f1d93 feat: default new Apple Silicon Claude agents to Paperclip Runner (#15993)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets users choose an agent harness and account.
> - The server resolves the runner for new agents.
> - Claude still needs the same ordinary native-default journey as
Codex.
> - Existing agents must retain their runner, model and account.
> - This PR defaults new Apple Silicon Claude agents to Paperclip Runner
with Opus 5.5.
> - Users can connect and work without a runner override.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15683. This PR depends on #15994 and precedes #15997. Related
scope: #15422, #13978 and #15224.

## What Changed

- Resolve new Apple Silicon Claude agents to `paperclip_runner`,
`provider: acpx`, `acpxAgent: claude`. Keep explicit Legacy, models,
provider routing and saved execution.
- Use `claude-opus-5-5` for ordinary Claude defaults and retain explicit
overrides.
- Reuse existing API-key/subscription connections, credential storage
and checks. Generalize the shared Advanced runner control with Claude
branding.
- Carry configured effort into the shared v9 contract. Preserve
compatible permissions, instructions, skills, timeouts and session
behavior. Require Legacy for unsupported settings.
- Qualify a new immutable managed Claude target at explicit Connect
through the existing permission-gated probe. Use fresh scoped discovery
for test and hire. Discard stale results and require an explicit Connect
after settings change.
- Retain merged Codex onboarding recovery, auth preparation,
import/effort corrections and Grok Bot gates.
- Check the Claude first-task wizard's saved default directly. Update
configuration/runtime documentation and exact Opus 5.5 accounting.

- Align hire fixtures with the merged host-environment restriction.
Native agent-authenticated hires cannot inject host env settings; both
creation endpoints verify that no extra agent is saved.

## Verification

- Updated onto master `9179d8dcc3e908c217fde4f63c9d08ccf8132eeb` through
#15994. Native input v9 carries effort while preserving v7 home modes
and v8 Muse. Codex defaults remain unchanged.
- Focused local verification passed 285 server tests, 323 UI tests, 124
setup/registry tests, and two v9 permission-pin transport cases. Direct
server/UI TypeScript checks passed. An initial 30-second hook timeout
was resolved by serial verification with a longer hook budget: all 122
credential/permission cases and 232 snapshot/environment cases pass.
Direct server TypeScript checking also passes.
- Ordinary web creation with the experiment disabled saved native
Claude, Opus 5.5 and High effort without runner/model overrides. The
actual product task and follow-up both succeeded on integrated source
`b2c9fe43f9cd3bc5dd9d22552da0148845ba71a4` with the cloud-built daemon
from `04e0202ca81387b17cbe7fd094a8338648356fe9`. The final master
reconciliation also changes shared runtime source. Historical proof
retains its source identity; a final-source cloud qualification is
running before refreshing the preview daemon.
- Both actual browser downloads were checked: v1 has three sections/six
checkboxes (451 bytes); v2 preserves the original body and adds two
Rollback checks (612 bytes). The original attachment stayed
byte-identical. The follow-up records session resume and the same
provider session. Total estimated API usage: $0.518432800, with no
pending/unpriced usage in the successful fixture.
- Fixed the live-discovered setup incompatibility: native API-key
validation no longer depends on the global Legacy Claude CLI. The
existing provider endpoint verifies the key without a paid prompt;
subscription/custom routing probes remain intact.
- Fixed security review's native-hire credential redirection:
agent-supplied URLs, proxy/launch settings and other host environment
controls are rejected before inheritance. Native credential references
remain supported and partial edits use the saved harness. Added
create/hire/update regression coverage.
- Current-head cloud CI is green. All three stack PRs have fresh
Greptile 5/5 reviews and zero unresolved review threads. Required
typecheck, test and build gates ran in cloud CI; Docker work stayed
remote. Earlier failed checks remain in their original runs.
- Docker and native release builds ran in cloud infrastructure. An
inadvertent local Rust prerequisite was stopped; no local Docker build
was run.

- The final master merge preserves task-loading, permission,
skill-retention and OpenRouter changes. Pi uses a fresh combined profile
27, preserving both historical profile-24 declarations; Copilot remains
profile 22. Focused protocol checks passed 155 cases (one skipped), the
updated Pi attestation check passed 18 (one skipped), and 91
evaluation/catalog checks passed.

- Latest-application manual continuation passed in 37.942 seconds on
`695e5c005a85bddc8711d3fcddcaf6b7e1fb64d0`, with High effort, native
Opus 5.5, Anthropic API attribution, the same resumed Claude session, an
independently checked 635-byte file and persisted Done status. It uses
the earlier verified Mac daemon; the preceding-source package
qualification passed at `dca62c7aeb4b45f0dd91a8e18d386a16a2658ef8`. That
package run predates the small TypeScript startup fix and is not
relabeled as qualification for it.
- Upgrade limitation: changed compiled sidecar identity rejected old
durable launch state and recovery hit session-open bounds before
eventually resuming. That attempt was operator-cancelled and retained;
the successful manual continuation does not qualify seamless upgrades.

- Local latency profile, Opus 5.5/High unchanged: three alternating
real-ACP loopback samples per variant reduce median provider-ready time
from 5.081s to 4.034s. The matched real API task startup improves from
5.533s to 4.348s, but total reply time changes from 17.933s to 20.221s
because agent work varies. This establishes a startup saving of about
one second, not a consistent total-reply speedup. A real candidate
follow-up passed in 20.146s and resumed the same saved session. The
loopback fixture makes no external model requests; failed initial probes
remain retained.
- The startup change passes 107 focused runtime/effort/lease tests, 53
profile checks (one skipped), TypeScript checking and the
TypeScript-only runtime build. Native hire fixture checks pass 70 tests;
their first local run retained a socket-hangup failure and stale
OpenCode expectation, both accounted for before the passing rerun.
Broader required checks run in cloud CI.

## Risks

- Missing packages, authentication rejection, unsupported settings and
unavailable models must fail explicitly. Existing agents retain saved
execution; explicit runner changes use existing revision/session
invalidation.
- Subscription follow-up remains unverified; remaining live acceptance
uses API keys per human steering. Historical accounting holds and the
separate $50 ceiling remain intact.
- The subscription acceptance limit remains explicit for review. No
Claude database migration is introduced.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution and browser testing. The exact serving model ID and
context-window size are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 95672307f4 feat(runner): carry acknowledged Claude effort through native resume (#15994)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - The native runner must carry each supported agent setting.
> - Claude effort must reach its ACP session before a prompt and after
resume.
> - Installed Claude setup must find the owning server package without a
qualification override.
> - This PR adds those shared contracts and preserves historical
readers.
> - The Claude default change can then use the same runner path.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15683. This prerequisite follows the actual Codex squash
`adb69e8f09852c772d9901ae270e5b2d66e39c77`. Consumers: #15993 and
#15997. Related scope: #15422, #13978 and #15224.

## What Changed

- Add native-input v9 for Claude effort. Preserve v1–v8 readers,
including v7 explicit home modes, v8 Muse, Dot and Grok Bot.
- Preserve prepared task input and constraints through the newer
contracts, including completion-only continuation without wrapping
compact model input again.
- Carry effort through daemon/sidecar admission; require provider
acknowledgment before prompting and after resume.
- Find installed server package authority through the verified canonical
layout. Retain package-integrity, digest, architecture and no-follow
checks.
- Return Claude startup cancellation promptly while retaining unfinished
settings writes and the lifetime lease through cleanup. Preserve merged
Codex close/cleanup behavior.
- Retain both independently authored historical Pi profile-24
declarations. Combined master/Claude source attestations use Pi profile
27; pending Copilot remains profile 22. This does not expand either
provider's qualification boundary.

- Avoid a spare verified executable snapshot when Claude effort control
reuses its initialized provider. Preserve cold-control snapshot renewal
and acknowledged effort.

## Verification

- Reconciled with master `9179d8dcc3e908c217fde4f63c9d08ccf8132eeb`,
retaining its task-loading, progress, skill-retention, permission and
OpenRouter changes.
- Final focused protocol/provider checks passed 155 tests (one skipped),
the updated Pi attestation check passed 18 (one skipped), and 91
evaluation/catalog checks passed. Generated TypeScript/Rust profile
checks and Rust formatting pass. The integrated consumer's
TypeScript-only runtime build also passes.
- Earlier branch checks passed 369 protocol tests (one skipped), 72
catalog checks and TypeScript checks/build; their source identities
remain historical. No Rust compilation or Docker build is needed locally
for this proof.
- Current-head cloud CI is green. All three stack PRs have fresh
Greptile 5/5 reviews and zero unresolved review threads. Required
typecheck, test and build gates ran in cloud CI; Docker work stayed
remote. Earlier failed checks remain in their original runs.
- [Earlier four-target package
qualification](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39267321383)
passed on source `04e0202ca81387b17cbe7fd094a8338648356fe9`; it is not
relabeled as proof for the final merge. Existing failures and
unknown-cost holds remain preserved.
- Current-head cloud CI is green. All three stack PRs have fresh
Greptile 5/5 reviews and zero unresolved review threads. Required
typecheck, test and build gates ran in cloud CI; Docker work stayed
remote. Earlier failed checks remain in their original runs.

- Latest-application manual continuation passed in 37.942 seconds on
`695e5c005a85bddc8711d3fcddcaf6b7e1fb64d0`, with High effort, native
Opus 5.5, Anthropic API attribution, the same resumed Claude session, an
independently checked 635-byte file and persisted Done status. It uses
the earlier verified Mac daemon; the preceding-source package
qualification passed at `dca62c7aeb4b45f0dd91a8e18d386a16a2658ef8`. That
package run predates the small TypeScript startup fix and is not
relabeled as qualification for it.
- Upgrade limitation: changed compiled sidecar identity rejected old
durable launch state and recovery hit session-open bounds before
eventually resuming. That attempt was operator-cancelled and retained;
the successful manual continuation does not qualify seamless upgrades.

- Local latency profile, Opus 5.5/High unchanged: three alternating
real-ACP loopback samples per variant reduce median provider-ready time
from 5.081s to 4.034s. The matched real API task startup improves from
5.533s to 4.348s, but total reply time changes from 17.933s to 20.221s
because agent work varies. This establishes a startup saving of about
one second, not a consistent total-reply speedup. A real candidate
follow-up passed in 20.146s and resumed the same saved session. The
loopback fixture makes no external model requests; failed initial probes
remain retained.
- The startup change passes 107 focused runtime/effort/lease tests, 53
profile checks (one skipped), TypeScript checking and the
TypeScript-only runtime build. Native hire fixture checks pass 70 tests;
their first local run retained a socket-hangup failure and stale
OpenCode expectation, both accounted for before the passing rerun.
Broader required checks run in cloud CI.

## Risks

- Explicit Claude effort needs a daemon and sidecar that support input
v9. Historical readers stay available; downstream builders and
permission-pin transport checks must also use v9.
- Source-bound profile changes may require reopening older Pi/Copilot
sessions. Copilot remains pending and executable package closures remain
unchanged.
- This prerequisite changes shared runtime behavior; Claude default
selection remains in #15993/#15997. No database migration or Codex
default change is introduced.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution and browser testing. The exact serving model ID and
context-window size are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip fa50cab568 perf(ui): speed task loading without shifting the conversation (#16849)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip's board should open a task quickly while keeping its
conversation and composer stable.
> - The browser currently downloads unrelated screens and unopened
dialog implementations before task content appears.
> - Splitting routes alone creates many shared requests and did not
improve measured cold loading.
> - This change groups the startup and task dependency trees, preloads
the task chunk, and defers optional routes and dialogs.
> - Existing coordinated history reveal stays intact so late data does
not insert content above the reader.
> - Hidden routes must not overwrite saved scroll positions with
zero-height geometry.
> - Repeated browser measurements and delayed-response tests establish
the result independently of bundle-file size.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14758. Related prior work: #10463 and #14727.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Cold task-page opening downloads and evaluates code for other screens
and globally mounted, unopened dialogs. A direct task link should reach
its saved conversation sooner without moving already-visible messages or
the composer.

**Subsystem affected**

Board UI startup, route boundaries, dialog loading, task scroll
restoration, and the issue-detail performance harness.

**Proposed behavior**

Load optional screens and dialogs when needed, keep startup requests
bounded, and preload the task route. Preserve the current history reveal
policy. Keep the shell mounted during route loading and preserve the
reader's position when a route is temporarily hidden.

**Additional context**

The older bundle-splitting attempt in #10463 is still open from August.
This implementation targets current master and deliberately preserves
today's editor, composer, and transcript reveal behavior. It does not
implement the alternative transcript-row design discussed in #14758.
ROADMAP.md does not describe overlapping startup-bundle work.

## What Changed

- Lazy-load board routes, standalone screens, the legacy layout,
onboarding, and unopened create dialogs.
- Keep activated dialogs mounted across close/reopen to retain their
existing draft lifecycle.
- Group startup and issue dependencies and preload the emitted issue
chunk from the production HTML.
- Contain route loading within the shell and retain existing chunk-error
recovery.
- Contain dialog import failures locally, support cancellation, and keep
setup dismissed after a late download. Warm the task module from task
lists and keep the small chat redirect eager.
- Wait for task-creation dialog fields in the browser fixture before
filling an explicit title.
- Ignore zero-height scroll geometry while a route is hidden.
- Reuse the same persisted performance fixture between builds, record
actual network spans, and distinguish concealed loading content from the
ready thread in browser assertions.

## Verification

- Production UI build and UI TypeScript check passed.
- Recovery follow-up: 74 focused UI tests passed; the cancellation
change passed 23 focused tests plus all 131 onboarding tests (the latter
with a 15-second per-test timeout on the contended local host).
- Setup cancellation was reproduced against the prior production build
and verified fixed after releasing the held real wizard download.
- 91 focused UI tests passed; the final route registrations were checked
again after making standalone screens lazy (33 routing tests passed).
- All eight real-browser layout scenarios passed: delayed comments, late
media, properties changes, growing drafts, older history, Back
navigation, deep links, desktop/mobile same-task links, request
failure/retry, and stalled native/log reads.
- Browser walkthrough: read a populated task, submit one reply, refresh,
navigate to Projects, and return. The reply persisted once and the
normal composer remained usable.
- Token design gates passed. The separate repository-wide publish-token
scan fails on pre-existing references to the local maintainer username
in unchanged files; this change adds none.
- Production-build measurements use the same persisted task, local
API/database, fresh browser contexts for cold opens, and five samples
per scenario/profile. These measurements do not establish deployed
staging latency.
- Final head `076466816a`, consecutive before/after production builds:
five samples per scenario/profile, same saved task and server. Cold Fast
4G/4x CPU content paint: **5,775 → 4,248 ms (26%)**; issue API server
timing was 23 ms in both sets. Warm Fast 4G: 989 → 971 ms. JavaScript
transferred before content: **2,596 → 1,722 KiB (34%)**.
- Unthrottled cold content paint: 1,306 → 676 ms; warm: 269 → 224 ms.
These local timings vary with host load. Earlier measurements showed
about 20% cold improvement, and a contended intermediate run had
substantially higher API latency; those runs are retained in the local
evidence. The final matched pair meets the proposed 25% target, but it
does not establish a guaranteed 25% improvement across environments.
- All four browser scenarios that failed on the first CI run passed
locally after the readiness fixes; the subsequent CI run passed all
eight browser shards.
- Fault-injection browser checks: delayed route loading preserves shell
geometry; a failed route recovers through Back; cancelled or failed
dialog loading preserves an unsent reply; Back dismisses pending setup
and contains its late failure.

- Final head `076466816a`: all CI gates green (55 successful checks, no
pending or failed checks); Greptile 5/5 with no actionable findings and
all review threads resolved.

## Risks

- Dynamic chunks add a loading state on first entry to optional screens
and dialogs. Route failures use the existing error boundary. Optional
dialog failures are dismissible without unmounting the board; retrying a
rejected import requires a reload.
- The task preload prioritizes the primary board journey, including when
another screen is opened first.
- Chunk grouping should be revisited when the dependency graph changes;
bundle size alone does not establish a speedup.
- No API, authorization, migration, editor semantics, or
transcript-reveal policy changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6, with reasoning, repository tools, code execution,
and browser verification. The runtime does not expose a more precise
model identifier or context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip c91f7a6e5f perf(runner): overlap verified sandbox launch assets (#16585)
Native sandbox launch preparation stages fresh harness files and immutable runtime context in sequence. Overlap them only under the verified concurrent-sync capability, settle every started transfer before launch or cleanup, and preserve serial SSH behavior and error priority.

A matched real-Daytona comparison reduces staging from 1,552 ms to 1,017 ms. The larger active-run difference includes model variation and is not attributed to this change. Add an explicit single-attempt diagnostic and synchronize stale Pi evidence metadata with its shipped profile.

Validation: 764 native runner/tracing cases, 2,764 support cases, repository typecheck/build, fresh exact-head full CI/E2E/security and Apex 5/5 pass. Observability remains a silent no-op when no endpoint is configured.

DottaandPaperclip ecc0ab8174 test(e2e): require remote restart identity and copyback receipts (#16344)

Add positive and negative calibrations, including immediate rejection when the original run ends before fault injection. All current-head CI checks pass and Greptile is 5/5. Live Daytona qualification remains separate.

DottaandPaperclip adb69e8f09 feat: default new Codex agents to Paperclip Runner on Linux and macOS (#15683)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source control plane for agent companies.
> - People choose a harness when creating an agent.
> - The server should resolve that harness to a qualified runner.
> - Codex is the first harness in the staged default rollout.
> - Saved agents must retain their execution choices.
> - New Codex agents therefore use Paperclip Runner on qualified
macOS/Linux targets, with an explicit Legacy override.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #16028, #15555, #15673, #15422, #15631, #15926, #15932, #16149.

The runtime/install prerequisite and release repair are merged. This
slice owns Codex creation, setup, configuration and preservation. Other
harness defaults remain unchanged. It adds no database migration;
incoming master migrations, required maps and regression coverage are
retained.

## What Changed

- Resolve `runner: auto | paperclip | legacy` at the common creation
boundary across onboarding, API/CLI, hires, built-ins, plugins and
imports. Freeze pending hires and export resolved execution choices.
- Preserve existing runners on upgrades, unrelated edits and import
updates, including compatible accounts, workspace settings, Codex effort
and intentional clears.
- Use the underlying harness picker and branding; put the runner
override in Advanced. Use the shared dropdown and update
production-component stories and creation contracts.
- Support qualified Apple Silicon, Intel Mac, Linux x64 and Linux ARM64.
Linux requires GNU libc 2.39+. Disabled, external, unsupported and
unqualified combinations retain their applicable Legacy execution.
- Test the selected runtime/account/model/environment. Ordinary Connect
probes eligible immutable managed targets and refreshes scoped
discovery. Creation/discovery do not provision. Auth, dependency,
incompatible-setting and cleanup failures remain actionable without
changing runners.
- Keep setup probes read-only, preserve local/SSH isolation and resolve
packaged assets before staging credentials. Bound cleanup reads by the
remaining absolute deadline; physically close every owned ingress socket
before endpoint release. Unconfirmed cleanup retains recovery state.
- Preserve validated completed-onboarding callbacks through startup
recovery. First file-producing work belongs to the child task and uses
the existing dependency/block handoff and task-scoped registration.
- Reuse existing E2E fixtures, artifact checks, reporting and controls.
Keep Docker/Cargo/native compilation remote. Paperclip tarballs contain
no Codex payloads; official optional npm platform dependencies remain.

## Verification

Current tested head: `1c03a8815672d82c264a9b08d4ea1984e8fae107`.
**Merge-ready: required CI, fresh review, package qualification, Mac
core acceptance and Test task/follow-up acceptance pass.** The existing
attachment and native-continuity oracles independently verify both Test
downloads, run attribution and unchanged native/provider/workspace
identities. The maintainer authorized a code-owner-review exception for
this PR only. The first Test setup failure and normal Board
completion-review friction are retained below. Actual post-merge
packages and private Cloud distribution remain separate qualification
gates.

- [Current
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38564241625):
all 48 ordinary jobs and required verify/E2E pass. Attempt 1 retained
six simultaneous host-shutdown cancellations. One failed-only retry
passes those six lanes and two aggregates, preserving 40 successes.
Actual integration checkout `53104c1` combines this head with master
`c80`; it is not relabeled as the branch tree. Fresh exact-head Greptile
5/5, 30 resolved threads, no actionable findings.
- [Exact-source package
qualification](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38565287239):
nine applicable jobs pass, nine conditional jobs skip. Four remote
native producers; Linux x64 clean install; Intel Mac, Apple Silicon and
Linux ARM64 native startup/physical cleanup controls. All 18
tarballs/four daemon source/hash/manifest bindings and 343 migrations
through 0344 verify. No Codex payload is packed. These hosted tarballs
are not a published npm canary.
- Normal Apple Silicon installation and credential-free native
startup/cleanup pass using the packaged daemon, with no source build or
provider turn. Fresh installed DB initialization passes. Upgrade
651a→1c03 preserves all three complete execution configs, accounts, ten
recorded run profiles, paused budgets, active incidents, cost summaries
and two historical unpriced events. Historical recovery state is
retained.
- Cleanup regressions: four delayed-read baseline failures become 15
passing deadline/authority controls. No-acknowledgement and prior-error
socket ownership regressions become 12 passing controls. Direct
runtime/server types, maps: 35 areas / 176 IDs, diff checks and
independent reviews pass. Permission/auth/reconnect policy and the
10-second setup budget remain intact.
- Existing source coverage includes creation/selection/imports, pending
approvals, recovery, account/lifecycle handling, mounted forms,
dropdowns and E2E support. Full typechecks/tests/build/token and
applicable Storybook checks pass in the recorded current CI; no
duplicate suite or weakened grader.
- Literal 9546 live Mac proof: ordinary Auto Codex onboarding, useful
document, real completed-child callback/reply, seven successful native
runs, manual follow-up and independently downloaded1,101-byte child
file. Existing Legacy title edit/reload preserves execution; two real
Legacy runs produce independently checked15/34-byte files. These remain
historical source records.
- Current literal 1c03 Mac core acceptance passes independent checks:
ordinary Auto native Codex onboarding without runner override; only
timeout 180 seconds/concurrency 1 saved; six successful native runs and
six serialized turns (maximum overlap 1); both same-task continuity
checks and five mechanical callback checks; actual rendered parent reply
and exact child downloads. The useful handoff advances from revision 1
to 2. Both files are 48 bytes, SHA-256
`8b742bd4e8123a7c078f0a8d9f3449fbfa8a320d7d90be641a2818db3c53d92c` and
`f42db9774fa06e804ab7d596fc8b922a2b638921c418b87d0111151d290a6afe`;
exactly one byte changes and old history remains. The agent is paused
with zero active runs/errors. Both artifact work products have
`isPrimary=false`, and descriptive titles fail a stricter title-helper
assumption; these retained results are scoped editorial follow-up, not
new merge gates. Six source-bound screenshots are uploaded and verified
in the private primary QA report.
- [Literal 9546 managed
proof](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-38485488621-1/index.html):
original 19 assertions and completed judge pass, four native turns,
child-bound240-byte file and session/workspace continuity. Checkout
reports a verified generated target-lock mutation; full final porcelain
was not retained. Signed execution-image identity remains separate from
Core source.
- Actual 651a Test deployment succeeds on one owned/pinned target. One
ordinary Auto API-key Connect then fails native cleanup before hire.
Controller turn/drain/suspend completion and service-recorded
environment cleanup are observed; they do not certify physical deletion
or native authority retirement. Failure/recovery/unknown holds are
retained. No Legacy switch or unchanged paid retry. The two source
repairs above require actual treatment.
- [Current immutable Core
preview](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38570365725)
and matching DB/shared artifacts pass. One owned, pinned Test target
serves exact `1c03`; identical migration history correctly skips the
migrator. Ordinary Auto Codex Connect succeeds and hires native; saved
native selection and QA bounds survive reload. The initial child
preparation attempt fails before provider work, with actual stdout
identifying `renewal_deadline`; its trigger remains unknown and the
failure is retained. Normal Board **Try again** and **Resume** recover
the child to Done, producing a browser-verified 44-byte file, SHA-256
`0a8458b1efcc2d7a0d815689458c4caab039a46c7c7a3e5805de6bc8b1a96ecc`. The
actual parent callback reports the completed child document/file. The
existing validator requires a parent-owned attachment, so recovery
enters normal Review; after byte checking, normal **Approve completion**
reaches parent Done. No forced status or duplicate parent file is used.
The validator is unchanged from integrated and current master.
Autonomous initial callback-to-Done is not proven. The same-child
follow-up completes document revision 2 and publishes a second
independently downloaded 44-byte file, SHA-256
`22022257300fae762784632d08d3bbe0bab61e2ce81f91864a14dcd7aa464591`; only
the revision digit changes. The unchanged existing native-continuity and
attachment oracles pass. All ten recorded runs are terminal: nine native
successes and the retained pre-provider setup failure. The QA agent is
paused with zero active runs. The pre-existing parent evidence scope
mismatch is a separate follow-up, with ordinary completion review
exercised rather than a forced status or relaxed validation. This
unsigned Core preview remains distinct from post-merge private Cloud
composition.

## Risks

- Saved agents are not migrated. Explicit runner changes use normal
configuration/session rules; historical runs retain their recorded
execution.
- Native readiness depends on verified assets and server-owned target
qualification. A Legacy probe, HTTP200 or successful account save cannot
prove native readiness.
- Recovery exceptions remain restricted to validated
completed-onboarding reports; process-loss, ownership and terminal-state
safeguards remain active. Unexecuted live journeys stay open.
- Linux ARM paid tasks, Windows, Alpine and 32-bit ARM remain deferred.
Cold Cargo cache misses are recorded; no warm-cache speedup is claimed.
- Historical invoices/physical cleanup remain unconfirmed and held.
After merge, exact published npm canary, signed standard image/migrator,
private composition and serving/live acceptance still require
qualification. Production deployment/default promotion is not
authorized.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, tools, code execution and
parallel agents. Exact serving snapshot and context-window size are not
exposed.

DottaandPaperclip d67e3507b2 feat(runner): qualify Codex platform packages and cache hosted builds (#16028)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native execution needs a compatible installed daemon and provider
dependency.
> - The Codex-default work found missing platform packages and
clean-install startup failures.
> - Release builds also repeat dependency compilation and run
preparation serially.
> - This prerequisite packages four daemon targets and verifies
installed native startup.
> - It also caches hosted Cargo dependencies and overlaps JavaScript
preparation with compilation.
> - Agent creation defaults and experimental gates stay at the current
master behavior.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15683. Refs #15555. Refs #15422. Refs #15926. Refs #15932.

Extract runtime and installation support from #15683. This prerequisite
has 65 changed files. Creation, onboarding, imports, UI runner selection
and graduation remain in the dependent PR. Feature/access maps and the
Storybook source catalog stay synchronized. Existing agents keep their
execution choices.

## What Changed

- Correct the existing runner test fixtures. Reserve owned credential
quorum listeners through the existing bounded fixture helper. Keep
foreign listeners intact, run actual credential staging once, and
preserve its rejection and unchanged-auth assertions. Reuse the
durable-resume outer-limit correction. Wait for actual warm-completion
and held-authorization callback entry under the existing recovery
deadline and surface early request errors. Preserve every semantic
assertion.
- Retain bounded installation failure diagnostics through the existing
qualification receipt upload. Keep the original error, 10-minute
deadline and all success checks.
- Keep startup ownership until credential preparation and registration
drain. Reject duplicate and post-close startup/resume work. Observe
shutdown during normal and adopted authentication readiness. Preserve
the primary failure and retain private state when cleanup is
unconfirmed.
- Package Linux x64/ARM64 and macOS Apple Silicon/Intel daemons. Verify
target headers, source identities, manifests, and hashes before assembly
and installation.
- Reuse the existing release producer/consumer workflows. Cache Cargo
dependencies by target, OS, compiler, lockfile, and contract inputs.
Rebuild workspace binaries. Permit trusted cache writes only for
canonical exact-source master pushes.
- Overlap JavaScript preparation with native compilation. Join both
commands and failure/cancellation cleanup before artifact verification.
- Preserve shell positional arguments in the shared SSH runner and apply
environment assignments correctly. Reject environment option keys. Six
before/after controls and two real SSH subprocess paths pass with zero
provider calls; this fix lands before both Codex and Claude defaults.
- Admit verified suspended SSH backups during cold controller
continuation, using the same full-scope, integrity and lifecycle checks
as sandbox targets. Two positive SSH cases fail before; all 14
positive/negative matrix cases pass afterward. Active ownership and
corrupt/malformed/nonempty state remain rejected.
- Record measured sandbox platform facts through the existing explicit
environment probe. Bind facts to the company, effective provider
configuration, immutable OCI image and actual captured image binding.
Check the returned cleanup receipt. Reject client-authored proof and
stale or named boot identities. Creation and discovery allocate nothing.
Preserve connection-only behavior.
- Resolve the actual remote Codex target and preserve same-host
development overrides. Preserve runtime artifact verification. Use
actual protocol/model compatibility rather than a numerical CLI version
fence.
- Resolve the installed Codex login dependency on 64-bit Linux and Mac
independently of the daemon libc baseline. Preserve account homes and
safe errors.
- Fix actual clean-install TOML table comparison. Preserve strict
semantic checks, comments, private writes, and malformed-input
rejection. Preserve primary startup failures and bounded cleanup.
- Document GNU libc 2.39+ and stock Ubuntu sandbox prerequisites.
Qualify ARM startup with a scoped distribution profile and unchanged
global restrictions. Preserve Windows and Alpine deferral.
- Preserve selected and saved native Codex reasoning effort in the
existing UI builder, while excluding it from other providers. This small
shared correction prevents import edits higher in the stack from
dropping effort.
- Reuse existing installed-package checks and assertions. Paperclip
tarballs contain no Codex native payloads. Official npm dependencies
supply the consumer's Codex binaries. All Docker and native builds stay
remote.

## Verification

Candidate: `271d434c170e74bdedde65d0b13059a55419c943`. It includes
current master `e168512f7bdbb6af6ea01954c6d7ed80b91e903e` and preserves
prior candidates through ordinary commits.

Current [full
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38346601686)
is successful on attempt 2. GitHub reports 54 successful checks and four
conditional skips, including required verify and browser aggregates,
workspace typecheck/tests/build, Linux DB controls, both runner shards
and [isolated native
compilation](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38346601609).
Fresh current-head Greptile is 5/5 with all four threads resolved. The
passing build's clean Grok/Codex report records CI merge source
`7a82a37438e6e448abc7cc5caa60dc2519a97be0`, 18 installed packages,
omitted Codex payloads, official host-only npm dependencies and zero
provider calls. Pi setup and its no-prompt lease verification also pass.
The first attempt's single 60-second Node archive download timeout
remains retained; its DNS/TLS/download cause remains unknown. One
unchanged-source retry was requested through the normal Build-job dialog
with debug logging disabled. GitHub's attempt 2 graph reports the other
CI jobs as well; no second retry or source/deadline relaxation was made.

The [final exact-source package
campaign](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38347027535)
is successful on literal `271d434c170e74bdedde65d0b13059a55419c943`. It
passes all four native producers, public Linux package assembly and
clean installed consumers on Apple Silicon, Intel Mac and Linux ARM64.
The nine qualification-mode skips are intentional; full CI above covers
their ordinary gates. Native builds and Docker assembly ran remotely.
The predecessor [`dae808` package
campaign](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38342104102)
remains literal historical evidence. Only tests and the dated record
differ from that source; runtime, package and workflow code is
unchanged. The reused credential fixture correction passes all 42
canonical Node 24 controls with synthetic data and independent
matching-source review, and the current hosted runner shard passes.
Production credential behavior is unchanged.

**Merge hold:** current-source CI, fresh 5/5 review and exact-source
package qualification pass. Actual code-owner approval and normal
protected merge remain pending. No slice has merged or deployed. GitHub
CLI authentication needs refresh; the normal signed-in embedded GitHub
UI provided this status without credential workarounds.

- The master merge preserves both Storybook source-review appendices and
the guarded test-home cleanup. All six existing cleanup controls pass
without skips. Master's isolated-home helper/test/setup are
byte-identical. The two existing whitespace lines in master's unrelated
privacy test remain outside this PR's diff.
- Canonical Node 24 passes all 24 existing public-install helper tests.
Three narrow added cases prove bounded/redacted failure metadata,
symlink exclusions, original exception identity, failed diagnostic
writes and no false failure on success. The Mac installer now uses
`--timing`; at most two 16 KiB tails and 32 structured entries per tail
enter the existing receipt upload. Raw argv, URLs, environment, error
text and stacks are omitted. A failed receipt explicitly remains
FAILED/unqualified/runtime-not-attempted. The 600,000 ms install
deadline and every real package/hash/payload/lock/lifecycle/runtime
oracle are unchanged.
- Canonical Node 24 reproduces the durable-resume outer timeout under
controlled fake latency. Only its outer test limit changes to 15
seconds; internal 500 ms/5 second deadlines and usage/effect assertions
remain. Controlled warm-recovery and before-bootstrap authorization
scheduling delays reproduce their callback polling failures, while the
explicit entry signals pass. Early recovery errors surface unchanged.
Independent review is clear. Historical mock binaries support the
fixture controls; fresh full hosted CI remains decisive. The original
hosted callback failure cause is inconclusive.
- The composed runner/surfaces/server/E2E TypeScript checks pass. Map
checks pass 35 areas/171 capability IDs. Token gates pass. The existing
Storybook catalog passes 223 files/2,210 stories; story IDs and
classifications remain intact. The current master had 25 inherited stale
fingerprints from three changed map recipes. Only those guarded
fingerprints and a source-only review note change; all 92 non-map
story/component/fixture inputs remain unchanged. Existing
classifications are retained. This proves source structure, not visual
or live acceptance.
- The 65-file contribution audit has no code file crossing from below
1,000 lines to above the limit. Earlier comment cleanup preserves
executable emissions, parsed workflows and action pins. Independent
cleanup/catalog and three-file reporting reviews are clear. No new
workflow, suite, grader or local native/Docker build was added.

**Prior `dae808` gate evidence:** fresh Greptile is 5/5 with four
resolved threads, isolated native compilation and the browser aggregate
pass. Its first runner shard passes the previous two corrections but
fails a different held-authorization cell at the implicit one-second
polling deadline. It records 1,672 passes/one failure/three skips. This
candidate applies the verified entry-signal correction without changing
production deadlines or any semantic assertions. Its original hosted
cause remains inconclusive until fresh CI.

**Previous-source evidence, kept literal:** the [exact `16a532` package
campaign](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38338806076)
passes all four native producers, public Linux package assembly, Apple
Silicon, Intel Mac and Linux ARM64 installed consumers. Its fresh review
is 5/5 with all four threads resolved. Full CI records 52 successful
checks, four conditional skips and the two fixture failures corrected
here. This is not a green full-CI candidate or proof for the new source.

`64c074fb8da1b31f8d6042c4fef48dc4164e759b` passed [full
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38332726938),
54 checks/four conditional skips, [isolated native
compilation](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38332726787/job/115085895328),
and fresh Greptile 5/5/all four resolved threads. The hosted transport
suite passed 246 tests and startup trust passed 22, closing that
source's local fake-binary limitation. These are historical after
reconciliation.

The [previous exact-source package
campaign](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38332921463)
built all four platform daemons and passed public Linux package assembly
plus Apple Silicon and Linux ARM64 installed consumers. **Intel Mac
failed:** its initial scripts-disabled npm install timed out before
lifecycle/runtime assertions. The underlying download/resolution/host
cause is unknown because the old helper deleted the npm logs. This is
the concrete baseline for the diagnostic change. The failed campaign
remains failed; no all-platform signoff or automatic retry is claimed.

The earlier `a200495` [four-target
campaign](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38283695248)
and [scoped ARM
qualification](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38291535914)
remain component evidence. Cargo restores were cold misses; no
warm-cache speedup is claimed. Paperclip tarballs contain no Codex
payloads. Official npm dependencies supply Codex on the user's platform.

Current-source full workspace typecheck/tests/build, Linux DB controls,
static/Rust/native tests, all browser shards and exact-source package
consumers must pass. New-agent defaults and final managed onboarding
belong to #15683. Actual private Cloud composition, warm/cold signup,
task/follow-up and rollback compatibility remain later release gates.
Source audits found that ordinary managed onboarding does not run the
saved platform probe and Cloud distributes named snapshots without a
verified final boot-image binding. These dependent release blockers
remain open; prequalified E2E fixtures do not close them. Master adds
task-workspace migrations; the final image/migrator and previous-image
checks must include them. ARM paid task/follow-up and ordinary OS APT
installation are not proven.

## Risks

- Multi-target packages require source and header agreement. Missing or
mismatched artifacts fail explicitly. Existing execution choices remain
unchanged.
- Linux requires GNU libc 2.39+ and compatible sandbox prerequisites.
The scoped hosted ARM preparation does not qualify arbitrary containers
or kernels. Windows, 32-bit ARM, and Alpine remain deferred.
- Only dependency crates are cached. Preview jobs cannot write trusted
caches. Concurrent command cleanup must preserve the primary failure.
- Native-free Paperclip packaging retains official Codex npm
dependencies. No Codex payload bundling, schema migration, automatic
agent migration, or production deployment is included.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and parallel agents. The exact serving model snapshot and
context-window size are not exposed.

Dotta a9830414c7 Preserve repository dependencies when importing GitHub skills (#15731)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Its Skills library imports reusable instructions from GitHub.
> - Some skills depend on shared files and sibling skills outside their
folders.
> - Directory-only imports lose those dependencies.
> - This pull request keeps repository files together and lets users
select which skills appear in the library.
> - Agents receive the original files and paths through the existing
skill delivery system.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14713. Related: #13656.

**Current behavior**

GitHub imports copy independent skill directories. Shared scripts,
policies, helper skills, and credit files can be omitted. One
shared-file error can block every skill.

**Proposed behavior**

New imports keep repository files together at the scanned commit. Show
all skills with their folders and select every skill by default.
Collapse individual package files. Omit unsupported or oversized files
with a warning. Import available content without repair choices or an
extra confirmation. Keep warnings on the saved source.

**Reason and benefit**

Skills can read their shared repository files after Paperclip delivers
them to an agent. Original instructions stay unchanged. Users can
inspect included files and understand omissions before and after import.

## What Changed

- Store immutable company-scoped repository snapshots and associate them
with skill versions. Regenerate the migration after merging master.
- Preserve original bytes, binary encoding, and executable modes.
Shared-file changes version each usable selected skill. Pinned versions
retain their original files.
- Deliver a discovery wrapper with the original tree under
`.paperclip-repository/`. Preserve invocation policy when present. Fork
and create-from-existing retain repository files.
- Keep repository files together for new UI imports. Show every skill,
select all by default, and collapse package files. Remove the
packaging-mode menu. Keep the mobile import footer visible.
- Warn about symlinks, submodules, oversized files, missing references,
and invalid optional manifests. A malformed skill remains selected with
a Needs setup warning. Usable skills still publish, and its original
file remains repository support content. Source warnings persist through
refresh. Unsafe execution and secret-disclosure findings omit the
affected files before snapshot publication.
- Expose saved repository files in the installed skill viewer, including
binary encoding and executable flags. Reads use the immutable
company-scoped snapshot; relative instruction links resolve from their
original repository directory.
- Audit delivered inventories and derive trust from all repository
files. Accept evaluation prose while retaining dynamic-execution
findings. Read blobs in one bounded Git batch and check budgets before
reading support files. Imports never execute setup commands.
- Add scanner, database, delivery, UI, and browser regressions. Update
Storybooks, screenshots, and documentation.

## Verification

- 69 focused scanner, Git snapshot, delivery, and PostgreSQL lifecycle
tests passed. They cover partial imports, warning persistence, missing
references, binary files, executable modes, copies, pinned versions,
cancellation, company isolation, and batched Git reads.
- 110 import, skill-detail, selection-tree, saved-file link, and
Markdown renderer tests passed. A file-switch regression failed before
the resolver fix and passed afterward. Browser walkthroughs cover the
all-selected open tree, repository preview, non-blocking warnings,
missing references, setup problems, warning persistence, and mobile
layout.
- Full workspace typecheck and build passed. Runner E2E TypeScript
checks and design-token gates passed. The full serial local suite was
attempted and stopped after over an hour. The existing 40,000-file Git
streaming stress test failed after 303 seconds on macOS; the broad local
suite is not counted as passed. All 55 applicable PR checks passed on
the final commit, including the full sharded CI suite. Two optional
Storybook workflows were skipped; the five local Storybook walkthroughs
passed.
- On October 12, live campaigns imported the private Poteto repository
through the production GitHub Sources UI, selected architect and bro,
and invoked them with native Codex on local and Daytona. The source
connection was disabled before invocation. Independent filesystem
inspections matched every supported Git blob, size, and executable mode.
Both tasks completed and cleanup passed. Campaigns:
`local-2026-10-12T15-07-39-504Z` (both environments),
`local-2026-10-12T16-08-39-682Z` (local), and
`local-2026-10-12T16-03-33-938Z` (Daytona). Each of the two selected
skills received all 234 supported repository files. Later changes only
affect the installed-file viewer and documentation. This qualifies skill
delivery and instruction reads, not every Poteto workflow or adapter.
- A manual source-checkout test drive imported a synthetic private
GitHub repository with a symlink, an oversized file, a missing
reference, and malformed skill metadata. Available skills published with
their shared checklist. The walkthrough found duplicate warning text
after import; the final UI fix removes that duplicate. The file viewer
exposes saved repository dependencies and resolves authored relative
links without changing the instructions. A follow-up live refresh
omitted unsafe helper files with warnings, preserved every safe file
byte, and survived a server restart.

Screenshots below use the production UI with Storybook fixtures. They do
not replace the live GitHub and runtime checks.

## Risks

- Each selected skill carries a repository copy in the runtime. The
database stores each snapshot once. Runtime transfer and storage
increase with the number of assigned skills.
- Runtime budgets remain: 9,990 repository entries, 1 MiB per file, and
61 MiB total. File omissions are recorded as warnings. Source-access or
download failures retain installed versions.
- Import success does not prove that every skill can run. Environment
dependencies, credentials, delegation tools, and schedules still need
configuration. Imported setup scripts are not executed.
- Live runtime coverage is native Codex on local and Daytona. Other
adapters use the shared delivery path but were not exercised in these
campaigns.

The roadmap marks Skills Manager as shipped. This extends the existing
importer. Related pull requests were checked.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with repository inspection, code
execution, automated tests, and browser tools. The exact deployment
identifier and context-window size were not exposed in this session.

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

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

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

- Full local `pnpm -r typecheck` passes, including Runner Rust, server
and UI. Focused integration checks pass: 194 Runner
admission/environment tests, 63 profile/credential tests with one
expected skip, 152 Dot/UI configuration tests, and Pi transcript/notice
tests.
- Full local `pnpm build` passes on the final source.
- Fresh final-source checks pass: all 698 Rust workspace tests (32
binaries), 156 credential/profile/controller tests with one expected
skip, Runner TypeScript typecheck, and 20 package/setup/sandbox tests.
- The profile-21 Pi materializer passes on the native host with the
official pinned Node 24.21.0 and its npm. It verifies all 150 locked
packages, the patched dependency and the exact closure. Setup/package
bundle tests and UI token gates pass.
- The old hashes were reproduced for all three supported targets before
calculating the patched graph. New closure hashes are darwin-arm64
`282022db10150c6632b3444df421342e7d534bdf5d5fb1097a2e79d0625a2bcf`,
darwin-x64
`64e251e19009f755c0b04f73ce2138246faab71a961b0f13d75ebfcc34bef12e`, and
linux-x64
`713b1fdff42fb56a1518bdc084f181d70bee8ebadc3e4b1d76321ed9108c8410`.
Independent native platform execution is separate from graph identity
reproduction.
- Historical cloud qualification remains unchanged: all seven core cases
pass on shipping source `10dc43c9ec65d88c2f782d62afb296d09494f215`,
harness `1a4408a48cfb5a1f094a311141c257c92cd7a893`, image
`sha256:5b3a775b383591bda1b0c1889e509acc70ce7f37c53f09733c81d59037f02280`,
and accepted Sonnet 4.6/low fixture. All 215 canonical files and all
seven cleanup checks pass independent verification. These are profile-19
results and are not relabeled as fresh profile-22 runs.
- Current Pi digest:

preserves campaign and failed-attempt provenance.
- Merge only after every PR's current-head CI and fresh review pass.
Linux CI covers the full suites, build and browser tests. The local
embedded Postgres API-authority suite cannot start on this macOS/Node 26
host, so Linux CI must confirm that suite.

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

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

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

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

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

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

### October 9 merge verification

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 428b617fc9 test(evals): qualify native question resume paths (#15616)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets agents pause tasks for human answers and continue the
work.
> - Native questions can yield a run or pause inside the provider's
running turn.
> - Those paths have different run identities and different forms.
> - The documentation-placement test requires a semantic three-turn
journey.
> - A valid provider question therefore needs separate behavioral
qualification.
> - This pull request adds an opt-in two-answer journey with exact
source and resume checks.
> - Qualification exposed a Vite startup crash in idle-handler
traversal, so the branch also distinguishes Connect mount paths from
Express Route objects.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Product E2E evaluation of native task questions and answer delivery.

**Current behavior**

The semantic documentation case rejects the provider adapter's optional
Other field before answering. Its three-run expectation also cannot
prove a provider question that resumes within the same run.

**Proposed behavior**

Keep that semantic test intact. Add a separate opt-in case that
classifies each recorded question by authoritative identities. Accept
the optional Other field only for a verified provider question. Require
both user answers, the correct continuation, and one saved final
document.

Related: #15564 added strict lifecycle checks. #15522 introduced
idle-request tracking; this PR corrects its Connect/Vite compatibility
after reproducing the startup crash. #14591 changes ACP question drafts
and provider support; this PR has no overlapping files with that change.

## What Changed

- Add the explicit-only `question-resume` suite for native Codex and
ACPX Claude. Reuse the existing neutral choice-then-text task request.
- Bind each question to its company, task, agent and run. Require an
applied semantic tool receipt or the exact provider request identity.
- Require a provider answer to continue the same run. Require a semantic
answer to start one new run with the matching interaction and source-run
wake fields.
- Preserve question forms and both real board answers through the final
checkpoint. Reject missing inputs, duplicate answers, extra runs and
substituted identities.
- Keep the existing lifecycle, output, task ownership and budget checks.
Limit the new case to one attempt and one to three runs.
- Add mutation calibrations and document the separate qualification
claims. Keep production guidance, scheduling, provider code and the
historical semantic case unchanged.
- Fix startup with Vite middleware: treat Connect string mount paths
separately from Express Route objects when traversing idle-request
handlers. A real-Vite regression verifies startup and retained async
work through an idle hold.

## Verification

- 81 focused continuation, question and calibration tests passed before
review. After the reference-preservation correction, all 50
question/resume tests pass, including two new negative cases that failed
against the previous grader.
- Final eval support suite passes: 1,921 Vitest tests and 128 Node
tests, with one intentional skip.
- Eval and workspace typechecks pass. Workspace build passes.
- Catalog discovery finds only the two declared opt-in cells. Existing
continuation remains 23 cells; default paid scope is unchanged.
- Original [campaign
37831726391](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37831726391),
source `1ac4b2873466896ff2892f49be82904927b6c57d`, failed during server
startup before any test or provider run. Its original
`transient_infrastructure` result and `cleanup: not_started` are
preserved. Local reproduction identifies the Connect string route
traversal crash; the question grader was never reached.
- Setup-corrected [campaign
37833872898](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37833872898)
measures source `9781a772389d41421df55759004676e1b905e512` with trusted
workflow `8e59efc50b162126f33816841e06509634eba65c`. The workflow bytes
are unchanged from the first dispatch. Same single selected native
Claude cell, one attempt, at most three runs, ten-minute cell deadline,
and 1,000-cent company/agent hard stops. Original result **PASS**, 24/24
checks and cleanup pass. Exactly three successful native Claude runs:
two applied Paperclip `request_human_input` questions and one finishing
run. Both real board answers persist, exact interaction/source-run
response wakes match, one revision-1 task document contains Afternoon
and the supplied reference, and final task state is done with no active
lock, retry, recovery, monitor, pending interaction or child task. No
model retry.
- Current review head `3c08cb7d26e7f9ac16469eeb07d1f31d828ec02e` differs
from the measured source only in the question/resume grader and its
tests (11 insertions, 3 deletions). The saved document must contain the
complete submitted reference, including its prefix and punctuation.
Separate provider-free replay of the retained successful campaign passes
all 24 continuation/lifecycle checks under this stricter grader. The
original result and its measured source remain unchanged; no new
provider run was made.
- Observed paths were **semantic → semantic**. The provider built-in
question/optional Other path was not exercised by this new live attempt.
Its form acceptance has retained-original calibration; same-run
answer/resume has deterministic positive/negative calibration. This
neutral-task pass alone does not qualify the provider path; the
subsequent explicit bridge trial below is separate evidence. Neither
trial regrades the old Claude failure or establishes a causal
behavior/performance comparison.
- Subsequent explicit provider-path [campaign
37841107684](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37841107684)
measures the final PR source `3c08cb7d26e7f9ac16469eeb07d1f31d828ec02e`,
using trusted workflow `2a5f65c9ae501b49b2a38ce7edd04209b806c9d0`. Exact
cell: `continuation.runner-acpx-claude.local.provider-question-bridge`,
Claude `claude-sonnet-5`, suite fingerprint
`fc77203bf85fd99b06ebc53cd52982186c0ae0dc369fcc38a9ec3c737e9a31e5`.
**Original PASS, 15/15 checks, cleanup passed, one actual provider run
and zero eval rerolls.** The built-in question produced one choice plus
its optional Other companion. The browser selected the requested
reference, left Other blank, and submitted. Exact runtime
request/response IDs and the selected option match the saved
interaction; the same paused native run created one revision-1 document
and finished Done with no pending interaction, lock, retry, recovery,
monitor or child task. Independent evidence and runtime-receipt audits
pass; marked initial/final screenshots were visually checked. [Original
public
report](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-37841107684-1/index.html).
- This separate provider-directed trial qualifies one choice-answer
bridge and traversal of an empty optional Other field. It does not
establish natural tool selection, a typed Other answer, two consecutive
built-in questions, free-text-only input, restart recovery or general
reliability. No production, prompt or grader change was made for this
dispatch. The old failure and the separate neutral semantic-path result
retain their original grades.
- Preserve within-run friction: one `write_task_document` input-schema
rejection and two HTTP 409 “Document does not exist yet” responses
preceded a successful `write_document` call. These are three
unsuccessful tool calls inside the same run, not three extra provider
runs; no flawless document-tool behavior is claimed. Billing reports
token usage but remains unpriced/incomplete, so actual charges are
unknown and local/hosted runtime is unmetered. Both company and agent
hard stops were 1,000 cents, with one attempt, one selected cell,
concurrency one and a ten-minute cell deadline.
- Billing records all three model runs with token usage, but no priced
dollar receipt (`unpriced`, `complete: false`). Actual charges are
unknown; local/hosted runtime is unmetered. Numeric zero reported cost
does not mean free.
- Startup repair: real-Vite reproduction passes; 35 targeted
idle-tracking tests pass, 34 database-dependent checks skip because
embedded PostgreSQL is unavailable locally. Workspace typecheck and
build pass again after the repair.
- Full local repository database tests were not repeated because
embedded PostgreSQL was unavailable in the preceding workspace
verification. Full Linux CI now passes on the final review head.

- Final-head [CI run
37837804284](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37837804284)
passes. Complete current-head audit: 53 successful check-runs, two
intentional Storybook skips, and separate Snyk success. The ready
transition’s contributor and security checks also pass (security scan:
no findings). [Fresh
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/15616#issuecomment-6068092601)
is 5/5 on `3c08cb7d26e7f9ac16469eeb07d1f31d828ec02e`; zero unresolved
threads and no merge conflicts.

## Risks

This is a new behavioral definition. The neutral two-question trial
records semantic-tool use; the separate provider-directed trial records
one built-in question. They do not establish consistent tool selection,
documentation placement, default hiring, remote environments, crash
recovery or general reliability. The separate explicit bridge trial
covers one provider choice, an empty optional Other companion and
same-run completion. Typed Other, two consecutive built-in questions and
free-text-only provider input remain unqualified. The observed
document-tool schema rejection and two 409 responses are retained as a
separate follow-up, without attributing their cause. The historical case
and its original grades remain intact. The reference question must still
be text-only; the oracle does not turn an arbitrary extra question into
an optional companion. Missing or unfamiliar identity evidence fails
closed. The only production change distinguishes Connect string mount
paths from Express route objects during idle-handler traversal. Unknown
route objects still fail closed. No API, schema, migration or workflow
change is included.

## Model Used

serving model ID and context-window size are not exposed in this

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 0ac194450a fix: make Copilot provider-pack wrappers portable (#15586)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Container images include a movable provider pack for agent
execution.
> - pnpm executable wrappers can contain the temporary build directory.
> - New optional Copilot packages add wrappers that the build does not
replace.
> - This pull request gives those installed wrappers relative executable
paths.
> - Image publication can finish while the existing path check remains
enforced.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15572 and #15560. The small portability loop comes from
cryppadotta's larger Copilot runtime PR #15560. This separate fix
repairs image publication without waiting for that feature's
qualification and runtime changes. That PR can remove its duplicate loop
after this lands.

**What happened?**

The standard Docker build stops with `Provider pack shim
copilot-linux-x64 retains its temporary build path`. The failure
occurred before and after #15522. See [the failed master
build](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37802065316).

**Expected behavior**

Installed native Copilot wrappers resolve their pinned executable after
the provider pack moves. Optional packages that are absent do not gain a
command. The builder still rejects wrappers with temporary paths.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run the provider-pack build from the affected master revision on
Linux x64.
2. Let `pnpm deploy --prod` install the optional Copilot package.
3. The wrapper scan rejects its temporary `NODE_PATH`.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Master `3367b75ccce34d02f355cda1f1ed3fe0b34cf93d`.

**Deployment mode**

Docker and provider-pack builds.

## What Changed

- Replace installed Copilot platform wrappers with relative native
executable launchers.
- Move the existing executable wrapper writer into an importable helper.
Retain the same launch behavior for Node, Claude and OpenCode.
- Test relocation, argument handling, exit status, absent optional
packages and missing executable packages. Register the tests in the
existing Runner test preparation command.
- Hash the helper in Daytona image identity and prove that helper
changes invalidate the image cache.
- Document the packaging rule. Keep dependencies, provider qualification
and the final temporary-path check unchanged.

## Verification

- 17 Node packaging tests passed across the new wrapper tests,
provider-pack release tests and candidate selection tests.
- Six existing bundled remote-provider-pack tests passed using the
Runner Vitest configuration.
- Nine Daytona image identity tests and Runner E2E typecheck passed
after the cache-input correction.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed.
- `pnpm build`: passed.
- Real `pnpm deploy --prod` reproduction on macOS ARM64: the original
Copilot wrapper contained the temporary path. After the rewrite and
directory relocation, the actual executable returned Copilot CLI 1.0.88
with exit code zero using only `/usr/bin:/bin` in `PATH`.
- Syntax checks, `git diff --check` and the pre-push secret scan passed.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` reproduced the same five
skill/connector fixture failures observed earlier in this workspace. It
was stopped after current-head clean-checkout CI passed; later local
phases were not run. This local run is not claimed as passing. Focused
packaging tests, workspace typecheck/build and all hosted CI passed.
- [Hosted Docker verification
passed](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37804902678):
Linux AMD64 and ARM64 image builds, multi-architecture publication and
the process-reaping smoke check. This run tested
`779d94989c54d9abbeba0838194c951186af66a6`; the only later changes are
Daytona cache identity and its regression test. Provider-pack build code
is identical. Local Docker did not respond within the bounded probe.
- Current head `db2c19e270b8d5a7bab5db39d3de0e4761cf57c3`: 54 successful
checks, two conditional skips, no failures and no merge conflicts. Apex
is 5/5 with no unresolved comments.

## Risks

The helper uses each installed package's exported executable. An
installed wrapper with a missing package still fails the build. This
change does not execute Copilot during image construction, alter
dependency pins, change runtime admission or weaken the temporary-path
check.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 via Codex, with reasoning, repository inspection, tool use
and code execution. The exact serving model identifier and context
window are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 24a15c5afa test(evals): verify durable waiting across continuation checkpoints (#15564)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and durable tasks across provider runs.
> - Human questions must preserve task ownership and stop work until a
real answer arrives.
> - The continuation eval checks the final work, but its lifecycle
oracle misses several broken waiting states.
> - A correct final answer can hide a stale execution lock or a lost
intermediate answer receipt.
> - This pull request checks each wait and retains every question and
run identity.
> - A source audit records which waiting operations belong to native
runtimes and which still require legacy API calls.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The existing Product E2E continuation oracle for human question and
approval journeys.

**Current behavior**

A pending interaction can pass the waiting check even when its task has
the wrong status, a stale lock, or a retry. Only the first pending
question and first run receipts are checked at the final checkpoint.

**Proposed behavior**

Require a healthy wait on the same task and assignee. Preserve all
intermediate run receipts and every pending question's answered
identity. Allow a paused native provider question only when its pending
runtime request identifies the running native run and execution lock.

Related: #15548 and #15554 cover earlier bookkeeping slices. #15544
changes production continuation summaries; this PR changes the eval
oracle and does not overlap that fix.

## What Changed

- Check waiting state, execution ownership, and all answer/run
identities in the existing lifecycle oracle.
- Add negative calibrations for broken records and positive coverage for
both semantic waits and paused provider questions.
- Retain task activity at each checkpoint for inspection of successful
persisted mutations.
- Verify 1,000-cent company and agent budget limits before continuation
work. Disable automatic cell rerolls.
- Document runtime ownership, existing coverage, and the remaining
instruction decision. Keep production instructions unchanged.

## Verification

- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:unit`: 1,867 Vitest tests pass, one skips; 128
Node tests pass.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck`: passes.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passes.
- `pnpm build`: passes.
- Negative calibration: 27 added cases fail against the prior oracle and
pass with these checks.
- Four existing local continuation cells are selected for a separate
bounded live canary. Live results are pending; no behavioral pass is
claimed here.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` suite was not repeated because embedded
PostgreSQL was unavailable in the preceding workspace verification.
Required Linux PR CI must pass before readiness.

## Risks

The stronger oracle can expose existing product or fixture defects. A
paused provider question and a terminal semantic wait have distinct
valid states. The four-cell canary does not qualify approval/review,
dependency unblock, crash races, remote execution, or general task
quality. Task activity records successful persisted writes, not failed
API attempts; repeated progress comments are not automatically defects.
Historical eval grades remain unchanged. No production scheduling,
prompt, tool, schema or migration changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6-based, with tool use and code execution. The exact
serving model ID and context-window size are not exposed in this
session.

DottaandPaperclip 2f0c485dec fix(skills): ship the completion helper with the installed skill (#15554)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages work for AI agents.
> - Legacy agents use the Paperclip skill to save task status and
comments.
> - The skill names a script relative to the task workspace.
> - That script exists only in the Paperclip source repository.
> - Agents in other workspaces can hit a missing command or search for
it.
> - This PR ships the helper inside the skill and uses the installed
skill path.
> - The repository command remains available through a forwarding
wrapper.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Fixes #9527. Refs #15548 for the preceding runtime checkout guidance.
Related: #6052 addresses LF line endings for the repository helper; this
change addresses helper delivery and path resolution.

## What Changed

- Bundle the existing issue update helper with the Paperclip skill.
Preserve its HTTP checks, echoed-status check and two-attempt limit.
- Resolve the command from the installed skill directory. Use a verified
PATCH when that path is unavailable, without searching the filesystem.
- Keep the repository command as a wrapper that works from any
directory.
- Test shell execution and exact status/comment payloads through both
provider skill-home layouts, including paths with spaces.
- Add helper sources and existing verification tests to stock-harness
admission. Record an absent historical helper explicitly. Add the
missing declaration for the admission fingerprint export.

## Verification

- Complete directly affected source suites: 30 tests pass. They cover
skill delivery, preserved multiline comments and links, authentication
headers, empty responses, mismatched status, transient retries and
definitive rejections.
- Product E2E typecheck passes. Support suites: 1,835 Vitest tests pass,
one is skipped; 128 Node tests pass.
- Full local build and workspace typecheck pass.
- Full local repository tests are not claimed as passed. Embedded
PostgreSQL was unavailable in this worktree during the preceding task;
Linux CI will run the repository gates.
- The authorized matched Codex/Claude comparison is pending. It uses the
existing assigned-skill case and original oracle, one initial attempt
per profile and variant.
- CI and a fresh Greptile review are pending. Keep this PR in draft
until readiness gates complete.

## Risks

- Correct path resolution depends on the harness supplying the installed
skill path. The instructions use verified PATCH when that path is
unavailable.
- The helper still requires Bash, curl and jq. Its existing retry and
response-verification behavior is unchanged.
- Tests use the shared skill-directory symlink mechanism and an HTTP
fixture. Real provider completion behavior still requires the bounded
live comparison.
- This fix does not redesign native completion, legacy recovery or
ambiguous transport handling.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family. The exact model build and context window are
not exposed in this session. Used code editing, shell tools and test
execution.

DottaandPaperclip 71cd0a2621 fix(skills): honor the current run harness checkout (#15548)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages work for AI agents.
> - The runtime claims eligible assigned tasks before it starts an
agent.
> - The wake tells the agent when the runtime already holds that claim.
> - The legacy skill still requires another checkout in every case.
> - This PR makes the skill honor the current task and run claim.
> - Manual checkout and server ownership checks remain in place for
other cases.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Where is the issue?**

`skills/paperclip/SKILL.md`, in the scoped wake procedure and Step 5.

**What's wrong?**

The wake can say that the harness already checked out the issue. The
skill still tells the agent that it must call checkout. These
instructions conflict.

**Suggested fix**

Skip the second checkout only when the runtime wake explicitly confirms
the claim for this issue and run. Retain manual checkout when that
statement is absent or the agent selects another task. Refs #14948 for
the existing shared prompt reduction.

## What Changed

- Honor the explicit runtime claim in the scoped wake procedure and Step
5.
- Keep context reads, status writes, deliverable handling and conflict
rules.
- Add checks for normal and resumed wake text and excluded automatic
claims.
- Retain successful checkout HTTP activity for legacy stock-task evals.
Bind each receipt to the exact company, task, agent and run. Keep this
observation separate from the original task grades.

## Verification

- Checkout observation calibration: nine tests pass.
- Focused skill, wake and database ownership tests: in progress.
- Full repository build, typecheck and tests: in progress.
- Planned live comparison: the existing assigned-skill document case on
legacy Codex and Claude. One attempt per variant and profile. No
automatic retries. The baseline and candidate share the observation code
and task oracle.
- Live results are pending. This draft does not claim behavioral
qualification.

## Risks

- Agents may misread prompt guidance. The API still enforces ownership;
the text grants no new authority.
- The exception is specific to the current issue and run. It does not
remove ordinary legacy completion writes or authorize another task.
- Activity measures successful checkout HTTP calls. Failed attempts
require separate run-log inspection. Missing or mismatched observations
cannot count as zero calls.
- One trial per profile cannot establish general reliability, speed or
cost trends.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family. The exact model build and context window are
not exposed in this session. Used code editing, shell tools and test
execution.

DottaandPaperclip b5342febe5 fix(runner): require current-turn completion after connection continuations (#15514)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents, tasks, permissions, and execution budgets.
> - Native tasks can resume after a connection decision in the same
provider conversation.
> - Each turn still needs an accepted completion report.
> - Compact continuation messages did not explain that reports from
earlier turns cannot finish the new turn.
> - The connection evaluator could also grade before the final reply was
stored or reject valid unavailable-access wording.
> - This PR clarifies the current-turn report requirement and fixes
those observation boundaries.
> - The original connection instructions and strict native completion
gate stay in place.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15489. The reduction remains draft while this separate repair is
qualified. Refs #15471 for the earlier connection continuation work.

## What Changed

- Add a current-turn completion reminder to compact continuation inputs.
- Keep final prose insufficient for completion. Preserve permissions and
retry policy.
- Wait for the final successful task run's saved, attributed decline
reply within the existing deadline.
- Use one bounded explanation matcher for both decline checks.
- Wait for a recorded tool-action rejection to dispatch its bound
continuation, with strict company, task, agent and source-run checks.
- Retain the exact grading input before later API refreshes.
- Add failure and delay regressions and update the Runner and evaluator
docs.

## Verification

The fresh comparison has **15/15 original passes on each variant**: 15
unchanged pass pairs, zero new failures, and no pending pair. There are
30 case attempts and **65 actual agent runs** (baseline 33; candidate
32). All runs succeeded. All 30 cleanups passed. No model attempt was
retried.

| Profile | Baseline | Candidate |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Native Codex `gpt-5.6-sol` | 5/5 | 5/5 |
| ACPX Claude `claude-sonnet-5` | 5/5 | 5/5 |
| OpenCode `openrouter/deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash-0731` | 5/5 | 5/5 |

Each profile covers service approval, service decline, connection
decline, provider decline, and selection of the second provider. The
saved replies, approved briefings, decisions, fixture observations,
final task states, and native completion records were inspected. All 18
saved decline-grade snapshots match their original captured inputs and
checks. Result, API snapshot, and final ledger run sets agree.

· [public baseline

- Candidate source: `79905343bba280d462765faad19a26e7f179259e`. Baseline
source: `7c5e120158f1385a1fc5f20be41f66c58a605534`. Both use master
context `fc6304dfe5f2e446e09bd052a7b45f51e930f250`. The trusted workflow
source is separately frozen at
`dd777f4b7343305c4e6f44c422f44a1d78e12e4f`.
- Both variants use the same evaluator, fixtures, models, permissions,
720-second cell deadline, and 1,000-cent company and agent hard stops.
The only production difference is the compact continuation reminder.
- Suite hash:
`aee30b74b4d38ada08777798db0932fbc64e368bb427d29caa8cfd86c7f59747`.
Definition hash:
`ea9e17f54fe0af1acbb2337ddfab8a7e92db8488bd0f59510a63095ca0229b60`.
- Provider-free transport capture: startup/resume input stays at 55,726
bytes. Compact continuation input grows from 53,334 to 53,535 bytes. The
42-tool catalog stays unchanged. These are Paperclip input bytes, not
complete vendor prompt tokens.
- Focused evaluator tests: 31 pass. Native contract, transport delivery,
and session tests: 194 pass. Evaluator support: 1,819 TypeScript tests
and 128 Node tests pass, with one intentional skip.
- Full build, workspace typecheck, and evaluator typecheck pass.
Current-head CI passes all required gates. The current rollup has 51
successful check runs, two intentional Storybook skips, and a successful
Snyk status. Review is 5/5 with zero unresolved threads.
- CI attempt 1 had one initial runtime-fixture health timeout. The exact
test and its full 164-test file pass locally. One CI shard retry passed.
The original CI failure, its dependent verify failure, and the retry
remain visible in [CI
history](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37711235060).
- The broad local `pnpm test:run` attempt was interrupted after about 49
minutes (exit 130). It recorded one failure in the unchanged Zep
memory-connector disabled-setting test. That test and the full 388-test
tool-access file pass in separate local checks; current-head CI also
passes. The local cause is not established, and this broad local attempt
is **not** claimed as passing. Three earlier local failures also pass in
their isolated checks; their original logs remain retained.
- The first two setup admissions were cancelled before provider jobs to
include the review correction. They made no provider calls. The
completed campaigns above are the first and only model attempts for
these corrected variants.

Cost evidence stays separate from behavior. Original result summaries
report only OpenCode amounts: baseline $0.039192096 and candidate
$0.063221620. Final run ledgers also retain estimates for Claude
(baseline $1.232439000; candidate $1.333611200) and Codex (baseline
$2.340324400; candidate $2.129335600). These estimates do not replace
the original summaries. Local and GitHub runtime are unmetered here.
Invoices are unknown. This is not a cheaper or faster claim.

## Risks

- A single matched trial cannot prove general equivalence or causation.
The reminder is an instruction change, not a new completion enforcement
rule.
- Candidate OpenCode service-decline finished within one continuous run;
its baseline used two. That pair passed the task outcome, but it does
not qualify the reminder on a resumed decline turn. No extra paid run
was used to replace it.
- The text matcher is bounded evidence of an explanation. It does not
prove reasoning or consumption of feedback. Bounded stdout excerpts do
not prove that every extra attempted tool call is absent.
- Missing saved replies or continuations still fail at the original
deadline. Failed native completion remains a failure even when final
prose is correct.
- The unresolved local-suite discrepancy above remains a validation
limit. Full remote CI and both focused local reproductions pass.
- The original connection instructions stay in place. These results do
not qualify the reduction in #15489. Its original 11/15 versus 12/15
grades and two new failing pairs remain unchanged.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6. The exact deployment ID and context window
are not exposed in this session. Capabilities used: reasoning,
repository editing, code execution, test inspection and eval analysis.

DottaandPaperclip d0db8820db fix(connections): repair native baseline and approval continuations (#15420)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and the tools they may use.
> - Connection setup separates provider preference from permission to
use a tool.
> - The first native connection baseline could not exercise its intended
decisions.
> - The browser used mutable task titles, and the provider fixture
already granted access.
> - Native provider-choice instructions also disagreed with the
preferred question format. Schema rejection gave no field guidance.
> - This pull request repairs those test preconditions and native
guidance, then fixes restart/approval defects exposed by the corrected
baseline. It also restores missing OpenCode tool-error evidence.
> - The benefit is an inspectable baseline before any further
instruction reduction.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15407.

The original 15-cell baseline remains 0 PASS / 15 FAIL. Ten cells
stopped on stale titles, two Codex cells had schema denials, two
OpenCode cells used already-granted tools, and one Claude cell returned
no native result. No intended user decisions were submitted. The exact
invalid Codex field and underlying Claude failure cause remain unknown.

[Original
campaign](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37562577199)
· [Original
report](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-37562577199-1/index.html)

## What Changed

- Match the browser's task route and visible identifier instead of a
title the agent can change.
- Start native provider-choice fixtures with no agent tool access.
Verify the public effective-access records.
- In the positive case, select Arcade, then grant its exact HubSpot tool
through the real access card. Require both saved decisions and exactly
one observed call.
- Return a canonical `providerQuestionSet` for native input and retain
the equivalent legacy `providerQuestion`.
- Keep invalid input rejected. Return bounded schema locations and
required field names without submitted values.
- Preserve Claude's exact session/content identity while allowing
authenticated registered instruction-copy paths to rotate on a new run.
- Reject duplicate approval reports for an existing exact tool-action
card before they create another human review.
- Wait for a recorded service-approval continuation within the existing
deadline; retain missing or failed continuation grades.
- Forward OpenCode tool activity through the runner facade, preserving
bounded errors and execution-part identity without inventing host-call
joins or exposing arguments.
- Preserve original grades, costs, scope limits and diagnoses in the
dated repair report.

## Verification

- Eval typecheck passes. Support suite: 1,801 PASS, one intentional
skip; Node checks: 128 PASS.
- Connection/schema tests: 51 PASS. Real-server public fixture setup:
one PASS with zero providers.
- Browser support regression: five PASS, including renamed and wrong
tasks.
- Focused Rust safe-feedback test: one PASS.
- Repository typecheck and build pass before the latest master replay.
Post-replay connection/shared/real-server fixture checks: 52 PASS; eval
typecheck passes. The browser review fix additionally passes all five
browser checks and seven suite checks.
- The full local repository run was interrupted incomplete after about
45 minutes, with five integration failures retained. All five pass in a
separate targeted invocation (1,250 unrelated tests skipped). No full
local-suite pass or root cause for the initial local failures is
claimed.
- Corrected frozen source `162cc90fdabe7f505b88ae095044531b82784c92`:
**10 PASS / 5 FAIL** across the [passing Codex
canary](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37575158761)
and [remaining 14
cells](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37576261807).
The canary passes all 17 checks. Claude's two provider-choice
continuations fail on restart, Claude service approval exposes an early
evaluator rejection, Codex service approval creates a duplicate
approval, and OpenCode provider-second times out after both decisions
with no HubSpot call. No original result is regraded.
- Final ledgers count 31 actual runs: 27 succeeded, two failed, two
cancelled during cleanup. All 15 cleanup/budget checks pass. The late
Claude continuation is absent from its earlier workflow snapshot; it
remains in the result/API/final ledger. Original evidence retains 279
hashes. Recorded LLM subtotal $0.04553787 is incomplete billing, not
actual total cost; local runtime is unmetered.
- New repair regressions reproduce the Claude attach failure, duplicate
approval acceptance and dropped OpenCode tool events before their
respective fixes. Nine Rust attachment checks, 127 ACPX host/adapter
tests, 33 completion/control-plane checks, nine eval deadline tests, 59
OpenCode proxy/driver tests, one Rust tool-error/redaction check, and
TypeScript/Rust composer parity pass. Eval typecheck, repository
typecheck and build pass. Existing support coverage is 1,802 PASS plus
128 Node PASS, one intentional support skip; two additional deadline
tests also pass.
- New-source full CI/review and live canaries are pending. The next
bounded selection is Claude provider-decline, Codex service-approve and
one OpenCode provider-second diagnostic with repaired event evidence. No
broader campaign or instruction-reduction qualification is claimed.
- Initial corrected campaign
[37574251834](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37574251834)
was cancelled during shared build after review found the breadcrumb
whitespace assumption. Its matrix job has zero steps and no provider
execution. The real adjacent-span browser regression now reproduces the
old failure and passes after the fix.

## Risks

- The corrected baseline remains 10/15. The new restart/approval fixes
require live qualification; OpenCode evidence forwarding does not itself
establish or fix its prior behavioral failure.
- The positive provider case now expects three runs, including separate
access approval. Its new results are distinct from the original invalid
fixture.
- The old Claude missing-result cause and rejected Codex field are
unknown. These repairs do not retroactively explain or erase either
failure.
- Path rotation must preserve prompt, custom instruction, skill/content
identity and protected provider settings; regression checks reject stale
or changed content. No connection authorization, JSON schema, budget,
cleanup, or final-result requirement is relaxed. Historical Everyday
prompts and gateway setup remain unchanged.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6. The exact deployment variant and context window are
not exposed in this session. Used repository inspection, code editing,
test execution and retained-evidence analysis.

DottaandPaperclip caf120105c test: prepare neutral native connection guidance evals (#15407)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents need to discover connections, obtain consent, and continue
from saved decisions.
> - We want to reduce repeated instructions only when measured behavior
supports the change.
> - The existing decline tasks tell the model not to retry. One
provider-decline check can pass without an explanation or an observed
service counter.
> - This PR adds neutral tasks and stricter saved-evidence checks before
any connection instruction reduction.
> - Production instructions remain unchanged. The new cells are
configured, not live-qualified.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15218. Refs #15389.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The Product E2E connection workflow evaluation and its instruction
measurement provenance.

**Current behavior**

Some decline prompts supply the policy they intend to test. The
provider-decline workflow does not require a saved post-decision
explanation. Its old no-call check can use a missing fixture counter as
zero. OpenCode has no connection cases in the original Everyday matrix.

**Proposed behavior**

Add an explicit-only suite with five connection stories on native Codex,
ACPX Claude, and OpenCode. Require an explanation attributed by exact
run ID after a saved decline. Observe the provider fixture counter.
Preserve the original cases and grades.

## What Changed

- Add fifteen configured cells with one attempt, twelve-minute
deadlines, and verified 1,000-cent company and agent budget stops.
- Remove procedure hints from the three new decline prompts. Keep a
user-permitted explanation fallback and the existing positive controls.
- Require saved decline state, one decision, unchanged connections,
observed zero service calls where applicable, and a post-decision
explanation from a successful run on the same task.
- Add negative grader calibration and test the actual fixture budget
payloads. Exclude the suite from default and generic selection.
- Extend the existing full-catalog measurement source manifest with
connection descriptions and schemas. Add an audit of fixed text, tool
descriptions, returned instructions, and unqualified behavior.
- Rebase on master `a6306ba606eb87c89b9ef0344e9fe8e0025580f9` and
preserve its new Cursor suites. No production, credential, workflow, or
lockfile change.

## Verification

- Before rebase: Product E2E support passed 1,424 TypeScript tests and
128 Node checks. Six catalog measurement tests, repository
typecheck/build, Product E2E typecheck, and exact fifteen-cell discovery
passed.
- The full pre-rebase repository test run was stopped when master
advanced. Its partial result is not a pass.
- After rebase and the review correction: repository build/typecheck,
Product E2E typecheck, 1,799 TypeScript support tests (one skipped), 128
Node checks, six measurement tests, and exact fifteen-cell discovery
pass. The duplicate local full-suite run was stopped incomplete after
about 20 minutes once complete CI passed; no local full-suite pass is
claimed.
- Review found that the initial grader read `runId` instead of public
`createdByRunId`. A regression calibration reproduced both rejection of
valid public comments and acceptance of the wrong alias. The fix uses
the actual field and binds the evidence type to the shared
`IssueComment` contract. A subsequent type-only import path correction
passes Product E2E typecheck.
- Final source `0de306b9664bfbdebb6709ddb54c95152740d1ad` passes
[complete
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37560250545):
51 successful checks and two intentional Storybook skips, plus separate
Snyk success. Fresh Greptile review is 5/5 with the single review thread
resolved and no new findings. The PR is clean and mergeable.
- Local commands: `pnpm build`, `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm
test:e2e:runner:unit`, `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck`, and `pnpm
test:e2e:runner -- --list --suite native-connection-guidance`. The
measurement uses
`PAPERCLIP_NATIVE_PROCEDURE_MEASUREMENT=/tmp/connection-measurement.json
pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/server
server/src/__tests__/native-procedure-measurement.test.ts`. Validation
used pinned pnpm 9.15.4.
- No paid provider campaign was started. There is no baseline/candidate
behavior result for these new cells.
- The audit records 654 UTF-8 bytes of fixed connection guidance. A
clean capture at `a04b8c6a452315625014888335d45670a2094fb6` confirms 41
supplied tools, 53,341 normalized bytes at start/resume, 50,949 at
compact continuation, and a 48,195-byte authenticated OpenCode MCP
catalog. These are byte counts, not tokens, bills, vendor-private prompt
sizes, or savings from this PR.

## Risks

- This is eval preparation. Passing support tests do not establish live
model behavior or qualify an instruction reduction.
- The explanation oracle checks attributed saved output. It does not
prove cognition or arbitrary prose truthfulness. One saved interaction
also does not prove the absence of repeated idempotent tool calls.
- Successful new authentication and tool refresh, existing-connection
agent grants, independent work while waiting, explicit retry after
decline, and blocking when mandatory work remains still need separate
coverage.
- Notion setup decline does not execute a real Notion service. Positive
service approval uses an already installed deterministic service; it
does not qualify new connection creation.
- The original historical failures remain unchanged. Future comparisons
must freeze source, fixture, model, input, and grading controls and
retain every actual attempt.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, and code
execution. The exact serving model ID and context-window size were not
exposed in this session; they are not inferred. No model provider was
invoked by the eval suite in this PR preparation.

DottaandPaperclip a6306ba606 feat(runner): consolidate Cursor production integration (#15075)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The native Runner keeps provider sessions under company authority,
approvals, budgets and durable recovery.
> - Cursor work was spread across candidate branches. The published
branch lacked later plan, permission and cleanup fixes.
> - Production also needs public installation and matching runtime
assets for local and Daytona execution.
> - This pull request consolidates Cursor onto current mainline recovery
behavior and completes that installation path.
> - The installed v11 release passed focused local and Daytona
qualification after the generic mode and lifecycle cleanup. The later
model-selection correction and current mainline merge produce v14
artifacts that need matching release qualification.
> - Cursor admission is enabled in source; publish only an artifact
combination with matching qualification. Native AskQuestion and complete
per-run dollar accounting remain excluded.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #14435, #14631, #14669, #14699, #14724.

This completes the Cursor implementation by @cryppadotta from combined
source `22c78242a4e0c2369fecf0c2dc4e7600fbad6706`. It preserves newer
mainline recovery, completion and warm-directory behavior. Pi and
Copilot remain gated.

## What Changed

- Generate named Rust and TypeScript ACPX release profiles from one
manifest. Share runtime pins with packaging and server verification.
Preserve vendor runtime versions; bind the updated ACPX patch to Cursor
profile v14 and reject stale generated declarations at build/typecheck.
- Remove ACPX model allowlists, including the former Codex and Pi
restrictions and the duplicate developer test-drive gate. Send any
explicit model ID unchanged to its provider and verify the effective
selection before prompting. The bundled ACPX package forwards unlisted
IDs, rejects mismatched acknowledgements, and restores the exact
selection after session load. It does not expand Cursor model aliases.
Provider rejection, mismatch, or missing model controls fails without a
fallback. Model examples live in evaluation fixtures, outside runtime
declarations.

- Add pinned Cursor execution, contained instructions, exact model
verification and Agent/Plan/Ask modes.
- Carry an opaque generic `mode` identifier in shared native execution,
sidecar, Rust and recovery contracts. The provider adapter owns
supported modes, defaults, native translation and acknowledgement.
- Keep native RPC recognition, accepted-plan interpretation and
permission evidence behind provider adapters. Shared settlement and
recovery verify normalized facts and their committed evidence.
- Replace the Cursor-only warm-attachment branch with a runner-owned
capability. Only Cursor opts into it. Move profile compatibility and
optional usage parsing into provider metadata and adapters.
- Write generic plan-wait receipts. Read exact historical Cursor
receipts through a separate compatibility decoder. Reject mixed formats
and preserve existing authority checks.
- Carry native plans, semantic questions, todos, child activity,
permission identities and partial usage diagnostics through the Runner.
- Preserve durable response delivery, cancellation, warm ownership and
process retirement.
- Finish accepted planning runs successfully. Keep their tasks open for
explicit direction. Acceptance does not start implementation.
- Ship `paperclipai runtime setup cursor` and its provisioner through
the public package. npm installation does not download Cursor. Setup
uses the OS account's closure-keyed cache so system-wide npm packages
can remain read-only. Run it as the Paperclip service account.
- Include Cursor in normal provider packs and Daytona images for macOS
ARM64/x64 and Linux x64.
- Reject stale release packs by source revision and current ACPX/Cursor
pins before assembly writes files. Verify current Cursor
version/profile/closure again at runtime.
- Ship all three daemon targets and the expected Linux image-pack
identity. A macOS controller uses its packaged Linux daemon for Daytona.
Image mismatches fail before provider launch.
- Use the vendored Runner boundary for installed readiness probes.
Verify the actual installed Cursor probe.
- Verify compiled public Daytona plugins and their release versions in
installed smokes.
- Record exact artifacts, the acceptance matrix, retained failures,
supported capabilities and rollback behavior in the [readiness
report](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/codex/cursor-production-readiness/doc/plans/2026-10-03-cursor-production-readiness.md).

## Verification

- Current head `f7ec5cc1f0e30c62a829c016ff2013a2a9d79037` merges
mainline `faa8e452c73bae5e044dd6379179a00106abb131`. It keeps Cursor
plan and cancellation guards alongside mainline historical-question
filtering. The evaluation catalog includes both Cursor and expanded
adapter accounting cases (683 total). Recursive typecheck, full build,
696 lifecycle/recovery tests, 45 fixture tests and fixture typecheck
passed. Current-head CI passed: 56 successful checks, one neutral and
four skipped. [Complete
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37557996535).
The fresh Base Greptile review is 5/5 on this exact head, with 304 files
reviewed, zero new comments and zero unresolved threads. The user
authorized overriding the CODEOWNER review gate after checks passed; no
failing checks are overridden. Prior results below retain their own head
identities.
- Corrective head `3d2b168366258036f6b6a6fccb382c49138cc601` fixes the
post-merge Apex finding. Automatic-review and new-evidence
reconciliation preserve pending child results and recheck delivery under
the status lock before completing. Account repair now excludes unrelated
secret consumers and requires the failed agent's identity. Regression
coverage includes the commit race, delivery statuses,
current-run/current-intent exclusions, repeated reconciliation, both
database reconciliation paths, and credential consumer boundaries. All
184 affected tests, server typecheck and server build passed.
Current-head Base Greptile review is 5/5, with 304 files reviewed, zero
new comments and zero unresolved threads. Current-head CI passed: 56
successful checks, one neutral and four skipped. [Complete
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37535994724).
This Base review is distinct from the earlier Apex review.
- Merge head `5957c257a` reconciles mainline `b508a05c4`. It preserves
both accepted-plan waits and pending-child-completion checks, current
provider selectors, task-creation response identities, and mainline ACPX
missing-file handling. The combined patch is bound to Cursor profile
v14; historical records keep their original identities.
- Merge head `5957c257a` passed recursive typecheck, full build, 43
installed ACPX/package contracts, 107 provider UI and plan/recovery
tests, 593 database-backed lifecycle tests, 49 profile/native contract
tests, 45 Product E2E fixture tests, fixture typecheck, token gates,
three provider-free browser task-creation cases, and Runner
conformance/replay checks. Its complete CI passed (55 successful checks,
one neutral and four skipped), while Apex returned 2/5 with a
child-delivery finding addressed below.
- The local full-suite attempt again failed the unchanged Git streaming
test (360-second timeout) and was stopped. The concurrent local Rust
attempt failed four unchanged Codex process/deadline tests; all four
passed serially without code changes in 7.29 seconds after removing the
competing test load. These failed commands are retained and are not
reported as full-suite passes; the fresh Linux CI runs are tracked
separately.
- The previous head `907bdb2a2778c7ffeb4a662a91460c9d1ddfc9c5` earned
Apex 5/5 with zero comments after fixing all three findings: per-user
install cache, stale release-pack rejection, and public Linux smoke
account/home handling. Its real built installer passed from read-only
public packages on macOS ARM64 and Linux x64. All 137 release-registry
checks and 64 ACPX package contracts passed. That review does not cover
this mainline reconciliation.
- Prior `beadd3654` passed the full CI matrix; its one unchanged chat
test failure and successful single retry remain in the [CI
history](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37521449327).
Historical results below remain attributed to their original builds.

- Fixture follow-up `dd59d7e82b103a88b7cbd7d2c38b612c0fbbff7a` removes
provider-specific model choices from generic offline ACPX tests. The
fake sidecar preserves the model and session identity selected at open
through suspension. Affected verification passed: 106 Rust tests and 73
TypeScript tests. This commit changes test code only; the
production-code checks below retain their recorded identities. Its CI
and Greptile review later passed; those results belong to that
historical head.
- Model-selection cleanup `9a070808b48960a41fdfd369ae0636b95af82459`:
252 focused Runner tests passed (six platform skips), covering all six
ACPX agents, native model acknowledgement, rejected selections,
installation integrity and recovery identity. The merged branch passed
recursive typecheck, full build, token gates, server admission (19
tests), and the Product E2E catalog (45 tests). The acceptance catalog
passed all four tests. The full Rust suite passed: 643 tests, 2 ignored.
It verifies sidecar acknowledgement of unlisted models and rejection of
model mismatches. The final commits only update Rust tests; production
sources match the verified build at
`65ec3279ac50185e3cda109b5cfd9b4f56105de0`. No new paid provider calls
were made.
- The merge preserves both Cursor and the new mainline public-MCP
fixture cases. Auto-merge remains disabled; the latest follow-up status
is recorded above. The local `pnpm test:run` attempt hit the unchanged
Git streaming test's 300-second timeout and was interrupted before
merging mainline. The broad Runner attempt found obsolete single-model
assertions plus three macOS fixture-path failures caused by a
`/private/tmp` override. The assertions are corrected; affected
TypeScript checks passed with the standard macOS temporary directory,
and the complete Rust suite passed. Neither interrupted command is a
full-suite pass.
- Earlier declaration-cleanup head `6f4a5e9e2` passed recursive
typecheck, build, Rust and focused tests. Its CI later exposed a test
expecting duplicated Grok digest literals. The current source fixes that
assertion to compare launcher bytes with the shared manifest. Historical
successes and failed attempts are retained; no new live provider
qualification is claimed.
- Previous head `e75fde6098b0ddd8cec765bfb6ecaeecb88a26a6` passed
complete CI (56 successful checks, one neutral, four skipped) and
Greptile 5/5. [Historical complete
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37489112305).
Those results are not claimed for the cleanup head.
- Frozen live application: `d7b696f9b8f79095233e9e3d56d23e6a6018dd48`.
Public package version: `0.0.0-cursor-verify.3d0c9b7761c6`. The
declaration cleanup preserves release pins and does not relabel that
tested artifact as a build of the new source. Mainline through
`e34abee670` was reconciled while preserving accepted-plan waits,
provider-capacity handling, and both Cursor and public-MCP fixtures.
- Clean normal installation, explicit Cursor setup and daemon resolution
passed on macOS ARM64, macOS x64 under Rosetta, and Linux x64. npm
lifecycle hooks ran without silently downloading Cursor.
- Historical v11 live matrix: **18/18 passed with cleanup** (nine local,
nine Daytona) after the generic mode and lifecycle cleanup. The campaign
has 23 attempts; all five failures and their diagnoses remain recorded.
Exact case identities, hashes and limits are in the readiness report.
All provider calls are real, use the explicit Luna model and
company-bound credentials, and run without qualification or
runtime-asset overrides.
- The immutable Daytona image is
`ghcr.io/paperclipai/paperclip-daytona-runner@sha256:d6259b6bba094702c13fc2283bd85550849c1c53145b656fb2746778f9fa1747`.
The public Daytona plugin is installed independently and its version is
checked.
- Recursive typecheck, full build, token gates and Runner
contract/conformance/replay checks passed on the frozen application. Its
complete Linux CI suite passed. The duplicate local full-suite command
was incomplete after timing failures; affected repeats passed, but that
command is not reported as a clean pass.
- Qualification fixtures passed typecheck, 1,675 Vitest tests (one
skip), 128 Node checks, three provider-free browser tests, and 150
focused lifecycle tests after the final diagnostic correction. The
affected legacy Cursor command file also passed all five tests after
removing its shorter 10-second override; it now inherits the suite’s
standard 15-second timeout. Greptile is 5/5 on `e75fde609` with no
unresolved review threads. CI results above are recorded separately from
historical build results.

## Risks

- Cursor v14 includes the updated ACPX dependency patch and release
identity. The v11 live matrix and image below remain historical
evidence. They do not certify new v14 package/image artifacts.

- ACPX accepts models beyond the qualification fixtures. Availability
and entitlement depend on the provider. Successful configuration is not
a claim of live qualification for every model.
- Shared mode is an opaque identifier. Provider adapters own its
meaning. Incompatible historical sessions remain fenced; exact committed
plan waits and task history remain inspectable.
- Native AskQuestion is excluded. Paperclip semantic questions are
supported. Authoritative per-run dollar accounting is unavailable;
partial counters remain diagnostics and unknown cost is not zero.
- Image input, detailed native diffs, deeper child transcripts and
native plan-file export remain follow-ups.
- macOS x64 has clean-install and daemon-startup proof under Rosetta,
not a separate live campaign on Intel hardware.
- Release only the tested package/image combination. Merging this PR
does not publish npm packages or deploy that image. Later builds need
their own release verification. Rollback disables new Cursor admission
while preserving records and recovery inspection.
- A model can fail an exact instruction: one cancelled-plan attempt
returned the wrong summary marker despite correct cancellation. The
unchanged repeat passed; both results remain in the report.

> ROADMAP.md was checked. This completes existing native Runner/Cursor
work; it does not add an independent core feature proposal.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6. The exact serving variant and context window are
not exposed in this session. The agent used reasoning, repository
inspection, code execution, protocol tests and browser-backed Product
E2E tools. Cursor acceptance uses the explicit
`gpt-5.6-luna[context=272k,reasoning=medium,fast=false]` model. That is
the evaluated provider model.

DottaandPaperclip 2d0c138122 Expand direct assistant MCP tools for work and configuration (#15380)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - People also use assistants in Codex, Claude, and other MCP clients.
> - The existing assistant connection can read work and create tasks or
comments.
> - It cannot edit tasks, exchange files, or manage normal agent and
project settings.
> - These operations must retain the person's permissions and
Paperclip's execution rules.
> - This pull request adds an explicit operation registry and separately
consented configuration access.
> - Assistants can manage work without receiving credentials or runner
authority.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting: assistant MCP, domain routes, consent UI, storage, and
Product E2E.

**Problem or motivation**

A connected assistant cannot update tasks, maintain documents, attach
files, or configure existing agents, projects, and skills. Users must
leave the assistant for these routine actions.

**Proposed solution**

Add named tools and a restricted API registry to direct connections.
Require separate configuration consent. Reuse domain routes and retry
receipts. File uploads save the attachment when the byte transfer
succeeds.

**Alternatives considered**

Arbitrary REST forwarding would expose administration and credential
operations. Runner impersonation would bypass execution ownership.
Separate upload completion calls add unnecessary client state.

**Roadmap alignment**

Checked ROADMAP.md and related MCP pull requests. This extends the
human-authorized connection from #14933. It does not replace the runner
or introduce agent impersonation.

Companion Cloud routing and directory isolation:
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/pull/678.

## What Changed

- Add task editing, finish/block, documents/revisions, deliverables,
agent settings/instructions, projects/repositories, and skills/files.
- Add an allowlisted API search/call registry with identical field
restrictions, scopes, and retry identities.
- Add unchecked configuration consent. Existing write grants retain
their current authority.
- Add hashed, expiring file transfer tickets and atomic upload receipts.
No completion call is required.
- Preserve company boundaries, human attribution, active native
execution ownership, and execution review gates.
- Add protocol/domain tests, consent stories, and eight paid Product E2E
workflows.
- Repair two CI fixture races: await cold route setup before assertions,
and wait for asynchronously loaded connection copy. Both fixture suites
pass (24 + 48 tests).

## Verification

- Consent revision: one write-access checkbox controls requested work
and configuration permissions in browser and device flows. All 16
consent tests, UI typecheck/build and token gates pass. Updated
interactive stories cover default approval, opt-out and viewer
restrictions. The paid browser helper uses the new exact label. Real
GPT-5.4 Mini Product E2E passes 2/2 at
`64f96373118eb190f8cba1c2ab17cb979555f3ad` (configuration + permission
denial), campaign `local-2026-10-07T00-51-14-337Z`, no automatic
retries, cleanup passed; $0.04149375 estimated assistant cost plus
unpriced worker usage. Raw results, usage and source fingerprints are
retained in the worktree. UI and Product E2E typechecks pass.

- Prior head `2f246d4b74f1f98c75ebcb37ae6753a748237fac`: all 52 checks
pass; two optional Storybook checks skip. Greptile 5/5 on that head, no
unresolved review threads. Final consent head
`64f96373118eb190f8cba1c2ab17cb979555f3ad` also has all checks passing
and Greptile 5/5 with no unresolved threads. The unchanged Cursor
sandbox test had one 10-second timeout, passed in local isolation, and
passed its single CI rerun; the failed attempt remains in [the CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37554106934).
The existing chat retry-denial browser test had one visibility failure;
its single rerun passes, and the failed attempt remains in [the CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37542735691).

- Full workspace `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass at final
runtime source `b2196fae1`. UI token gates pass.
- 139 MCP/OAuth/transfer/privacy tests and 76 grader calibration tests
pass, including one-connection PostgreSQL OAuth and concurrent upload
retries.
- Paid Product E2E: all eight expanded cases qualified across Mini,
Haiku and Sonnet. A merged-source repeat passed 23/24; one Haiku cell
timed out before application startup. Final affected-case qualification
passes 9/9 on all three models with grader v16, including the failed
cell. Automatic retries disabled; failures, costs, source hashes and
independent durable-state/file assertions are retained in [the
verification
record](doc/plans/2026-10-06-expanded-assistant-mcp-verification.md).
- Actual Codex CLI, Claude Code and OpenCode clients completed local
reads/mutations. Codex wrote a report, Claude updated it in a later
conversation, and OpenCode uploaded/downloaded a file with matching
SHA-256 and registered the attachment. Revoking the CLI grant rejects
subsequent bridge initialization.
- Butter staging is verified on final runtime `b2196fae1`
([deployment](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/actions/runs/37538432138)).
A fresh OpenCode workspace fetched the copied invitation, configured
remote MCP, started OAuth and reached real consent with configuration
unchecked. Invalid transfer tickets return 403 through Cloud. Human
approval for the new persistent staging grant is pending; hosted
task/file success is not yet claimed. The final transaction fix is
deployed.
- Full local `pnpm test:run` passed 15,614 general-server tests but
stopped on two macOS timeouts. The heartbeat test passed in isolation;
the existing 40,000-file Git stress fixture timed out again. Its Linux
CI lane passes. Later local full-suite phases did not run after the
timeout; this is not an all-green local full-suite claim.
- Instructions and security limits are in `doc/public-mcp.md`; the saved
plan is `doc/plans/2026-10-06-expanded-assistant-mcp-tools.md`.

## Risks

- This expands the experimental direct MCP surface. Explicit schemas and
domain permissions must stay synchronized.
- Migration 0311 adds transfer tickets and upload receipts. Expired
orphan cleanup must not remove committed attachments.
- Configuration requires a new consent request containing that scope;
the single write-access choice controls it alongside work mutations.
Refreshing an old grant does not add it.
- The public directory keeps its original ten tools through the
companion Cloud change.
- Hosted consent/work proof remains the final delivery gate. The PR
stays draft while approval of the new staging grant is pending; code
checks and review are green. Merging is a separate action.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex (GPT-6, tool use and code execution). The exact serving
model ID and context window are not exposed in this session. Paid
evaluation models: gpt-5.4-mini, claude-haiku-4-5-20251001;
claude-sonnet-4-6.

DottaandPaperclip fe9d865250 fix(native): wake parents after revised child completions (#15372)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and the tasks they perform.
> - A parent needs a new notification when a child finishes requested
revisions.
> - Native completion currently identifies that wake by the parent and
child only.
> - An already consumed notification can suppress the child's next
completion.
> - This PR binds ordinary child notifications to the committed status
decision.
> - A replay keeps the same identity, while a new completion can wake
the parent.
> - Live evaluation then exposed new child results being swallowed by an
active parent.
> - The repair preserves that input for a fresh turn and prevents
premature Done from discarding it.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #15218. The procedure experiments remain unshipped. This fixes
native completion wake identity and durable delivery to a busy parent.

Related open work: #10559 and #4507 address legacy wake deduplication,
#11179 addresses delivery during an active parent run, and #13044
addresses watchdog signals. This PR changes native committed-decision
keys and their delivery to an active parent, while preserving exact
watchdog behavior.

**What happened?**

A native child completed, its parent consumed the notification, and
feedback reopened the child. The second completion found the old
completed wake and created no new notification.

**Expected behavior**

Each new ordinary child completion can notify the parent. Replaying the
same committed completion must not add a notification. If the parent is
already running, the new result must remain available for a fresh turn;
an unread result must survive a parent Done claim.

**Steps to reproduce**

Complete a native child, consume its parent wake, reopen and complete
that same child, then inspect the parent wakes. The regression fails on
unchanged master because only one wake exists after two completions.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Baseline: `0fe47882cfcb12082035113c59ca96091c46ebfc`.

**Deployment mode**

Native runner with the standard server and PostgreSQL control plane.

## What Changed

- Include the durable status-decision ID in ordinary child completion
wake keys.
- Defer new ordinary native child completions behind an active parent,
carrying the committed decision identity and revised summary.
- Keep a parent in progress while that result is still queued, claimed
or deferred; recheck before the status commit. Use the existing
continuation without reviving cancelled tasks.
- Lock the parent before ordinary child status writes, making the
notification/Done ordering explicit without upgrading an implicit
foreign-key lock.
- Cover exact sequential delivery, dispatcher replay, and
queued/claimed/deferred versus consumed/current-run completion
identities in database tests.
- Apply it when the child is also a dependency and when it is only a
child.
- Preserve the stable key for exact `task_watchdog` origins to avoid
repeated watchdog loops.
- Extend real database conformance coverage for both relationships,
ordinary and near-match origins, watchdogs, revised summaries, and
replay.
- Reconcile the working checklist with the merged guidance PRs and
record the bounded next step.
- Reuse the current composer helper for Everyday task creation: capture
the returned task ID, preserve the exact prompt and chosen
assignee/project, and cover the setup with paused-agent browser tests.
The same setup correction is present in both comparison variants.

## Verification

**Ready for review and merge at
`e2fc0c8e3ddb84dd9bc045704c3d1ecb23ee3447`: both original live cases
pass, zero new failures against the frozen baseline, all checks green,
CLEAN/MERGEABLE and out of draft. Not merged.**

| Profile | Original baseline | Initial candidate | Fixed candidate |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| native Codex / `gpt-5.6-sol` | PASS | FAIL | PASS |
| ACPX Claude / `claude-sonnet-5` | FAIL | PASS | PASS |

One new pass, one unchanged pass, zero new failures and no pending pairs
against the original baseline. The earlier failed candidate is
preserved; it was fixed and measured at a new source, not regraded or
rerolled unchanged.

### Current source and live evidence

- [Completed campaign
37523025407](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37523025407)
and [public report with original
screenshots](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-37523025407-1/index.html).
Report and screenshots return HTTP 200; screenshot bytes match original
retained evidence.
- Measured candidate `e2fc0c8e3ddb84dd9bc045704c3d1ecb23ee3447`; reused
frozen baseline `7d700f43e93e89e4c196f8799b0aa3cef41d20da`. Trusted
workflow `88ff98b83d15eaa6640ee1848df4f0ad9bc82af3` is distinct from
measured sources; workflow blob
`0600886144d3e22ea2e4a38329a79177882f3948`. Prompts, fixture, oracle,
model/profile and input controls are unchanged. Both variants include
the same composer setup repair.
- Both original candidate grades PASS: all 31 checks per cell, parent
and child Done, independently tested revised ZIPs, successful cleanup.
Exactly one first attempt per profile on this source: 10 actual runs, no
retries. Reusing nine baseline runs gives 19 matched runs; the baseline
was not rerun.
- Claude directly exercised the repair: its revised child completed
while the parent was active, the parent's Done claim became InProgress
with `native_child_completion_pending`, and a fresh parent turn then
completed with the revised artifact.
- Both persisted final provider comments refer to the same attachment
whose parent-registration hash matches the revised ZIP tested by the
original oracle; native final evidence also references that attachment.
Codex provides a clickable download link. Claude describes the new
`--max-length` behavior but uses a backticked attachment ID, without a
clickable URL in the final prose. The artifact is registered on the
parent and independently downloaded/tested; prose-link usability remains
a presentation limit outside the original oracle. Artifact identity and
observed execution do not prove cognitive review.
- 68 focused scheduling/conformance/arbiter tests pass. Four regressions
fail against the original production files while four controls pass. The
database scheduler test proves one sequential continuation with the
revised summary and replay deduplication. It uses a mock adapter and is
separate from the live proof.
- Full local `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass. [Exact-head full
CI
37522126627](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37522126627):
51 successful checks, two intentional skips, separate Snyk success.
Fresh exact-head Greptile
[5/5](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/15372#issuecomment-6022179172),
no new actionable findings; all review threads resolved.
- Ready-transition Contributor trust and Superagent Security Scan both
pass. The security scan completed at 2026-10-06T20:26:53Z with zero
annotations. Final total: 53 successful check runs, two intentional
skips and separate Snyk success; aggregate SUCCESS, source unchanged,
zero unresolved threads.
- The explicit parent lock precedes child writes. Its controlled
PostgreSQL ordering also passes on previous production through an
implicit foreign-key lock; this is hardening, not a reproduced
additional live failure. The four original failing regressions remain
the before/after proof of the active-parent repair.

### Preserved failures and accounting

- Initial candidate `a2ae2324ce7692e704fc43e99904b076d6246fee`: Codex
PASS → FAIL, Claude FAIL → PASS. Equal totals concealed a new failure
and did not qualify that source. Its Codex parent ended Blocked after
the revised child result coalesced into the active parent; there was no
retained later parent execution and the independent ZIP oracle was never
reached. A later server backstop log did not prove recovery.
- In the initial Claude cells, both parent finals referenced an earlier
parent ZIP while the oracle tested the revised child's ZIP. The original
candidate PASS did not establish latest-artifact delivery. Earlier
parent ZIP bytes are absent, so different hashes alone do not prove
missing functionality. Those original grades and content findings are
unchanged.
- Original baseline
[report](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-37509893406-1/index.html);
original candidate Claude
[artifact](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37509916344/artifacts/11434353106);
failed candidate Codex
[campaign](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37513070706).
The original cohort contains 17 actual runs, no retries, successful
cleanup.
- Campaign 37509916344 was cancelled after its Codex job waited over 16
minutes without a runner or steps. Completed Claude evidence was
preserved; only the missing Codex first trial was dispatched in
37513070706. The trusted workflow revision differs but workflow bytes
are identical. The cancelled campaign has no published HTML. Earlier
campaigns 37506546098 / 37506550087 retain four composer setup failures,
zero agent runs; the identical fixture-only repair restored setup
without changing the prompt or outcome oracle.
- Intermediate `3c1cf6830ce9db4123b834ffb99c594c383a8986` [campaign
37518652522](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37518652522)
was cancelled after a concurrency review finding. Both paid-cell steps
started and both tasks were created. Only invocation policies survived;
no grade, run inventory or cleanup receipt. Provider activity and
charges are unknown: two incomplete attempts, not passes or
zero-provider setup failures.
- Cumulative accounting: **27 known actual runs** (17 original + 10
fixed-candidate), plus unknown activity in those two cancelled
intermediate attempts. The 19-run matched comparison reuses nine
baseline runs and is not additional execution. Reported LLM amounts are
zero with original billing `complete=true`; actual charges are unknown
and local/hosted runtime is unmetered. No free-run, speed or cost claim.
- Original and new results pass the canonical result validator. Retained
source, input, result/API/story/final-ledger/usage run identities and
artifact hashes were audited. Each downloaded package omits the
pre-upload-declared `playwright-output/.last-run.json`; primary result,
API, final ledger, story, screenshots and reached ZIP oracles are
retained. No full-package completeness claim.
- The initial redundant local full test invocation was stopped after
2,492.5 seconds once that head's CI passed; completed groups recorded
23,045 passes and 87 skips. That local invocation remains incomplete.
Current full CI is the repository-wide test evidence.

## Risks

A revised completion can schedule another sequential parent run and its
normal budget use. A parent Done claim remains non-terminal while a
newer native child result awaits delivery. Company scope, governance,
workspace-finalization, terminal cancellation and exact watchdog
behavior remain enforced. This changes native completion authority and
scheduling, so the durable identity, replay and concurrent-commit
controls matter.

The two live trials qualify the observed revised-child handoff, not
broad task quality or causal/general equivalence. Claude's final prose
still gives an attachment ID without a clickable URL, although the
registered revised artifact passes the original download oracle.
Completion before any new child result exists, removal of unfinished
dependencies and broader instruction reduction remain separate
questions. There is no schema or prompt change.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with repository inspection, shell execution
and code editing. The exact serving model ID, reasoning setting and
context window are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip e38d6d16b6 feat(connections): add advanced provider setup and live browser qualification (#15341)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Users connect accounts and choose an agent harness and model.
> - The runtime change in #14970 supports custom providers on those
connections.
> - Normal setup must stay simple while advanced users can choose a
compatible gateway.
> - Shared connector rows and access controls keep these choices
consistent.
> - This pull request refines the agent setup UI and adds review stories
and repeatable browser qualification.
> - The qualification checks real tools and downloaded outputs, not only
a successful run status.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14970, #37, #13083, #14104, #14565, #12692.

The core implementation in #14970 is merged. This branch incorporates
its squash commit and targets `master`. Both PRs contain our
implementation. #14016 is a reference only and is not a dependency. This
PR has 96 changed files.

## What Changed

- Complete model-provider connector presentation beside other
connectors. Each row uses the existing Connect action and connection
list. Tags are stored without category UI. The base PR includes the
provider forms and routes.
- Show persistent Subscription, API Key, and Advanced choices. Label
Advanced as Custom Gateway. Reuse provider logos, connection lists, and
permissions controls. Default access to the organization and all agents
when permitted; keep narrowing controls under Advanced.
- Keep Configure reachable before subscription sign-in, so users can
select a supported environment when the default cannot sign in. Testing
and saving still require a connection. Show the execution environment in
Configure. Preserve the confirmed Connect choice. Editing a method,
credential, saved account, or advanced choice requires that current
choice to connect before testing or saving. Use matching model and
thinking-effort dropdowns and retain connection icons in selected
values.
- Preserve the new harness model default when switching an existing
OpenCode agent to Codex or Claude, and resolve user-selected model names
with the effective harness.
- Load popular OpenRouter models through the shared connection-model
discovery path. Keep explicit model lists and manual model entry
available.
- Group onboarding, connection setup, agent runtime, management,
recovery, and production-component stories under AI Connections /
Provider routing.
- Add an explicit-only provider-connections browser suite for managed
local or existing local/staging targets. Use private browser profiles
and credential handoffs. Support human-assisted subscription sign-in
without sharing passwords or tokens in reports.
- Verify persisted connection identity, runtime probes, tool execution,
exact artifact bytes, completion, and context-dependent follow-up.
Retain source/model provenance, cost bounds, closed error diagnostics,
original failures, and cleanup evidence.
- Add Gemini startup-model and skill-root fixes, Grok private-history
detection, ACP filesystem regression fixtures, selected-workspace
handling for local Hermes, and artifact-helper workspace fallback.
- Keep managed Grok runtime homes disposable. Remove host-side
transcript retention/restoration because private file modes do not
isolate same-user agent processes. Ignore earlier development archives
and use a fresh task handoff when history is unavailable. Verify the
absence of restored transcripts with a separate same-user process.
- Capture stopped-run diagnostics before deleting an attached-company
fixture agent. Track creation and owned sign-in receipts; revoke only
this attempt's accounts and never adopt a concurrent campaign's newly
created account. Preserve failure signals and final status through
cleanup.
- Require the requested environment in the saved agent and every run,
including follow-ups. Reject a forced incompatible target. Keep one
cancellation state through startup, every cell, reporting, and teardown
for SIGINT, SIGTERM, and SIGHUP. Stop further paid cells after
interruption. Document qualification limits.

## Verification

- Current head `b3bb3e94d577d43d9965a6b9daba039f599b2e49` includes
master `d9f600043`. The security fix in `a758fde31` passes full
workspace typecheck, production build, and 119 connection/Grok
regressions. The unchanged UI passes all 126
configuration/model-discovery tests and token gates. The final
published-guide correction passes Grok adapter typecheck. Earlier head
`eebd8225c` passed the complete deterministic runner suite (1,404 Vitest
tests and 128 Node tests) and all CI jobs. Current-head CI run
`37520147514` passed all 47 jobs, including the full sharded Vitest and
browser matrix, production build, and canary dry run. All 55 checks
completed: 53 successes and two expected skips. The current-head
security scan passed, Greptile is 5/5, and no review threads remain
open.
- A separate same-user process reproduced reading a restored Grok
transcript before the security fix. The regression now finds no
transcript. Existing fresh-session fallback and ordinary session
metadata behavior pass.
- The final account-choice and cleanup fixes pass 85 setup tests and 26
qualification-harness tests. Regressions verify that editing a
connection invalidates confirmation, Configure remains reachable before
sign-in, diagnostics are captured before fixture deletion, and
concurrent campaigns cannot adopt or revoke each other's accounts. UI
and E2E typechecks pass.
- The Storybook build and actual Chromium production-component stories
passed during this change. Review the neighboring AI Connections /
Provider routing stories, regular connector rows, three connection
modes, model discovery, and the single execution-environment control in
Configure.
- Cancellation smoke verified authenticated cleanup before browser close
for SIGINT, SIGTERM, and SIGHUP. Regressions cover interruption during
startup and reporting, missing-file ACP resource errors, and preserved
permission denials. Both ACP runtime versions and 54 ACPX/Grok
regressions passed. The deterministic connection-intent browser suite
passed two tests.
- Historical local qualification retained 43 passing API/gateway cells
out of 46, with downloaded outputs and follow-up receipts. These
attempts span earlier builds; they do not qualify this exact commit or
staging. Subscription combinations, Gemini overloads, and the unresolved
follow-up failure remain recorded rather than counted as passing.
- Use `pnpm test:e2e:runner -- --list --suite provider-connections` to
inspect the matrix. Follow `tests/runner-e2e/PROVIDER-CONNECTIONS.md`
for credentials, target URL, sign-in assistance, budget, evidence, and
cleanup. Paid live tests remain opt-in.

## Risks

- The core implementation in #14970 is merged. This PR adds no database
migration of its own.
- Subscription login needs an interactive provider session. Dedicated
accounts and staging qualification remain follow-up work; this PR does
not certify every login combination for production.
- Managed Grok transcript resume is deferred until provider history has
an OS isolation or authorized broker solution. Follow-ups start fresh
with Paperclip task context; earlier live Grok results do not qualify
this behavior.
- Gemini CLI 0.58.0 has an upstream ACP new-file error conversion
defect. Live overloads and one unresolved follow-up timeout remain
recorded. The stock CLI is unchanged, and those cases are not marked as
passing.
- Real-provider tests spend credits and use private credential/evidence
directories. The launcher requires explicit selection and checks target
ownership. It must not attach to a developer's database by accident.
- OpenClaw Gateway, Hermes Gateway, Claude Managed, AWS AgentCore,
Process, HTTP, and legacy ACPX local remain outside custom provider
setup.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and browser testing. The exact deployment model ID and
context window size were not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 22a3ea3414 Invite assistants from Connections with scoped browser and device consent (#14933)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Public MCP lets people use their organization from an external
assistant.
> - Operators need a visible control for this experimental access.
> - Hosted users should select an organization once and then approve its
permissions.
> - This pull request adds the setting, invitation-first setup, and
browser or device consent.
> - Connections provides a copyable invitation with public instructions
that grant no access.
> - Users reach browser consent from their assistant and return to
inspect or revoke access.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Builds on merged foundation #14846. This PR now targets master. Related
settings convention: #13905.

**Current behavior**

The preview uses an environment variable to enable MCP. Hosted consent
repeats organization selection. Assistant access has no entry in
Connections, so users must already know the endpoint and how to reach
consent.

**Proposed behavior**

An administrator enables Settings → Experimental → Assistant connections
(MCP). A hosted connection shows the selected organization and its icon,
then asks for permissions. Requested write access starts checked when
the user’s role permits it; the user can opt out before connecting.
Direct instance connections show an organization picker with the first
available organization selected. The selection stays fixed across
refetches and still requires an explicit Connect action. Connections
includes Assistant Connection (MCP). Its setup page explains the
canonical endpoint, client configuration, browser authentication, and
connected access. It connects as the current person and does not select
or impersonate an agent.

**Reason and benefit**

Operators manage access with the other experiments. Users select one
organization, and both the UI and server enforce that choice.

**Breaking changes**

The old enable variable has no effect. Preview operators must enable the
setting once. Apply the additive consent-request migration before
deploying the tenant, then deploy the compatible Cloud broker. Existing
direct requests and grants keep their behavior.

## What Changed

- Simplify OAuth and device consent: show the Paperclip logo beside
“Connect {client} to Paperclip”, fall back to “your assistant”, and show
the identifying origin plus its favicon below, with the callback URL
also visible when different. Remove the hosted-organization creation
action. Default to the first available organization without silently
changing it on refetch; preserve company restrictions and write
opt-outs. Keep the button row contained on narrow screens.
- Make Copy invitation the primary action, using the shared animated
AgentSetupPrompt and a collapsed manual setup section with icon-labeled
line tabs. Remove redundant link actions, copy-status text, the extra
first-prompt well and revocation explanation from the setup page. Serve
shared version-aware HTML and Markdown instructions without private
organization data.
- Support guarded Client ID Metadata Documents alongside dynamic
registration, and include authorization response issuer identification.
- Add RFC 8628 device authorization with separately hashed codes,
expiry, shared request quotas, persistent polling backoff and atomic
redemption. Reuse human consent, role checks, scoped grants, audit and
revocation.
- Add CLI device login and a local stdio bridge. Store credentials
separately with private permissions and serialize rotating refreshes.
- Add device consent stories and five cold-start paid Product E2E cases
with independent grant, configuration and durable-work assertions.

- Add `enablePublicMcp` to the settings validator, normalizer, feature
catalog, and toggle UI. Check it live for OAuth, tools, subscriptions,
and event delivery. Keep connection management and revocation available
while disabled.
- Default the MCP origin to the existing auth public URL, with strict
validation and an explicit override.
- Persist the optional OAuth `company_id` restriction. Describe only
that company and reject approval for any other company, even if the
person belongs to both. Keep active-membership and role checks.
- Show the Paperclip icon and a large organization icon during consent.
Return the saved company logo through the company-scoped request
response and reuse the standard fallback icon. Use the requested concise
permission labels: “Read all of your Paperclip data” and “Allow write
access and creating tasks as me”. Use concise permission copy, retain a
compact client and callback-origin disclosure, and remove the footer
link.
- Default requested write access on for eligible roles. Preserve opt-out
across organization changes and refetch, reset defaults for a new
request, and submit read-only access when the request or role does not
allow writes. Align the shared checkbox with its label.
- Use organization wording in consent, management, settings, and
walkthroughs. Keep the organization fixed for hosted requests and retain
direct-instance choice.
- Add an Assistant Connection (MCP) card to the Connectors catalog, a
setup page in the app shell, and a return link from Experimental
settings. Include Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode, and generic remote MCP
instructions.
- Read the live gate and canonical server URL through authenticated
setup metadata. Show only the current person’s grants for the selected
organization, refresh after consent, and support revocation. Surface
catalog status failures with an explicit retry action; do not present
them as an empty connection list. Opening setup grants no authority.
- Start the eight guided chapters in Connections. Keep presenter notes
and chapter controls around real product pages in the app shell. Explain
the terminal, consent, delegation, retrieval, and revocation handoffs.
Mark conversation examples as illustrative. Cover first use, client
setup, connected, loading, and error states. Keep the existing consent
and management stories.
- Keep the paid-eval setup and browser helper aligned with the setting
and consent button.

## Verification

- Warm-standby integration fix `ec64ea05e`: public MCP ingress now
follows the Cloud claim guard; MCP and discovery paths return 503
instead of SPA HTML while unclaimed. Event polling checks the in-memory
claim before reading the persisted experimental setting. All 97 focused
OAuth/Cloud tests and server typecheck pass, including new request and
timer regressions for idle-before-claim and resume-after-claim behavior.
Fresh review is 5/5 with no unresolved threads, and all security scans
pass on this final head. All browser shards, typecheck, build, canary
installation and other test groups passed on the first attempt. The
unchanged Cursor sandbox default-command test timed out at 10 seconds;
the exact test passed locally without edits in 587 ms. The single
failed-job retry passed, with the original failure retained in workflow
37500711895. All 54 final-head checks pass on
`ec64ea05e9a03e2179d4e2f84c2de03761f7ce26` (two optional Storybook jobs
are intentionally skipped).

- Final master integration `8457828fc`: merged foundation #14846 and
current master, preserving the invitation changes and all 33 files from
the two newer upstream changes. No migration renumbering was required.
All 95 focused OAuth/Cloud integration tests, full recursive typecheck
and token gates pass. All CI gates passed on that integration head;
review identified the warm-standby issue fixed above.

- Security-review fix `8c1d0b696`: commit shared global/per-source
admission before outbound CIMD work, preserve failed-attempt receipts,
and validate resource/scope before fetching. Added migration
`0305_chubby_vin_gonzales.sql` and six concurrent/adversarial regression
cases. All 69 OAuth/metadata tests, 26 migration checks, full recursive
typecheck and production build pass. The security scanner passed that
commit. Follow-up `87f9658e7` limits only actual cache-miss fetches; 18
authorization requests sharing one proxy across two service instances
use just two fetches. All 70 OAuth/metadata tests and server typecheck
pass after that refinement. Final follow-up `8ebeae84c` reports
admission-storage failures as retryable HTTP 503 instead of invalid
client metadata. Its regression proves no outbound request before
admission and successful retry after storage recovers. All 71
OAuth/metadata tests and server typecheck pass. Final-head security
scanning passes; Greptile is 5/5 with no unresolved findings. CI passed
all browser shards, typecheck, build, token gates and canary
installation. One unchanged adapter-utils bridge test raced a
response-file write (expected a JSON error, received the safe
file-changed error). The exact test passed locally without edits. The
single failed-job retry passed; the original failure is retained in
workflow 37490609192. All 54 checks now pass on final head
`8ebeae84ca77c0cf7ac12c2006f0f8743fe50e0b`, with security scan and fresh
Greptile 5/5 and no unresolved threads. Foundation #14846 subsequently
merged as `e34abee670069cca84afb2efb86041bce7dccbec`; the final
integration above now targets master.

- Integration with current master: preserved the new Connections source
filters and pagination, kept all eval suites, and regenerated the
consent/device snapshots as migrations 0303/0304. All four MCP migration
SQL hashes are unchanged from the staging versions. Full recursive
typecheck and production build, 132 focused UI tests (including catalog
filtering), 89 server authorization/settings tests, 26 migration tests,
120 eval calibration tests and token gates pass. Review follow-up
`4820ce74c` also keeps active assistant grants in Installed, with
pending/error recovery and revocation/company-isolation coverage. All 76
setup/catalog tests, UI typecheck and token gates pass after that fix.
The unchanged signoff browser test timed out waiting for a heartbeat in
CI at `4820ce74c`; the exact test passed locally without code changes,
and the preceding CI head passed that shard. That same unchanged test
failed at the reviewer stage in the next CI run. All five signoff tests
passed three times locally (15/15), without test changes. All eight
browser shards pass at final head `8ebeae84c`; no browser-test edits or
failed-browser-job retries were needed.

- Setup-page refinement at `9ab009178`: all 17 focused setup/consent
tests pass, along with UI typecheck, production build, Storybook build
and token gates. Browser exercised the shared prompt preview and client
tab switching, and the updated InvitationCopied Storybook interaction
checks its clipboard fixture. All final-head CI checks pass at
`9ab009178`, with no unresolved review findings. Deployed successfully
to Butter in
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/actions/runs/37475189524.
Verified the actual page, tab switching and line styling, removed
actions/copy, and successful native copy/paste of the complete Butter
invitation into a local-only test field. The existing Claude grant was
left intact.
- Consent follow-up at `dc8e9fd11`: all 10 consent tests and token gates
pass. UI typecheck and production build passed again at `4e4d5e4d9`;
Storybook build and eval-helper typecheck passed for `28101cf91`.
Follow-ups let the primary button wrap on narrow screens, preserve a
distinct callback URL, and use only bundled icons to avoid pre-consent
requests to client-selected sites. Browser-verified the real consent
component in desktop and 320px mobile stories, including default
selection, write access and preserved opt-out. Updated E2E
heading/default-selection helpers. All CI checks passed at `dc8e9fd11`,
with review 5/5 and no unresolved threads. The Butter preview
publication needed a retry because npm initially accepted the DB package
before making it visible; the retry succeeded and `dc8e9fd11` deployed.
Verified a fresh, unapproved native Codex CIMD request on Butter:
default organization/write selection, known-client heading and icon,
distinct callback origin, and removed creation action. No grant was
approved for this UI check. Prior paid runs below retain their exact
source provenance; this UI-only follow-up did not rerun paid
qualification.
- Source-pinned paid matrix at
`2992ef2710f47230e7f484c709c6ba02524f884c`: **15/15 passed**, five cases
each on GPT-5.4 Mini, Claude Haiku and Sonnet. Campaign
`local-2026-10-06T02-41-14-462Z`. Covers cold start, existing config,
unavailable host, denied consent and reconnect/later retrieval, with
independent configuration/grant/task/run/document assertions. Original
failures, transcripts, source fingerprints and billing remain retained.
- Final instruction follow-up `cda8178af`: **3/3 cold starts passed** on
Mini, Haiku and Sonnet. Campaign `local-2026-10-06T02-58-30-041Z`.
Latest `0637b9f1c` shares that same guidance across HTML, Markdown and
manual UI after review; generated Markdown is verified byte-identical to
the paid-evaluated version. Shared build, server/UI typechecks, token
gates and 63 auth/metadata tests passed again. Every CI gate passed at
prior HEAD `0637b9f1c`, with review 5/5 and no unresolved threads.
- Other focused checks: 11 CLI credential/refresh-lock tests, 120 eval
calibration tests, server/UI/eval typechecks, token gates and Storybook
build passed. Full recursive typecheck and production build passed
during implementation; CI also passed them at `2992ef271`.
- Local full-suite limitations: a large-file Git streaming test times
out on this Mac, and broader CLI/route runs hit DB hook timeouts. Fresh
MCP reruns passed, and the corresponding CI groups passed. No claim that
the local full suite is green.
- Actual clients: Codex 0.153.4 and Claude Code 2.1.245 reach CIMD
consent; device CLI reaches verification/consent. New grants await human
approval. Existing local OpenCode retrieved a saved result in a fresh
conversation through its previously approved grant.
- Fresh OpenCode 1.18.17 on Butter: started with no MCP config, received
the exact copied invitation, read public setup, configured its server
and started PKCE consent. Its shell command timed out; background retry
reached the client's own callback deadline while approval remained
pending. Latest instructions cover that handoff. **No completed Butter
read/delegation/result retrieval is claimed.**
- Cloud companion
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/pull/672 passes
checks/review and deployed. Anonymous setup and device-protocol routing
verified. Core `2992ef271` deployed successfully and the actual Claude
web flow now reaches consent. Its extra JWT-bearer metadata is filtered
to implemented grants; unsupported token grants remain rejected. Final
`0637b9f1c` deployed successfully to Butter in
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/actions/runs/37409195300;
live HTML and Markdown both contain the final guidance. The superseded
instruction-only build was canceled before deployment. This is a
core-only staging preview; private Cloud plugins are omitted. ChatGPT
web is signed out, so browser connector use is unverified.
- Screenshot gallery begins at Butter's dashboard and distinguishes real
setup/pending consent from local reuse and fixtures. It records the
timeout finding. New persistent access needs human confirmation before
the remaining actual-client acceptance work.
- Manual path: Connectors → Assistant Connection (MCP) → Copy invitation
→ paste into assistant → configure and start authorization → sign in and
approve → verify `paperclip_connection` → delegate → retrieve the saved
report later.
- Plan and instructions: `doc/plans/2026-10-05-assistant-invitations.md`
and `doc/public-mcp.md`.

## Risks

- Apply additive, replay-safe migration `0304_curvy_shadow_king.sql`
before using device authorization. The public setup link carries no
credential. Device codes and tokens stay private; neither sharing
instructions nor installing a plugin authorizes access.
- Apply additive migration `0305_chubby_vin_gonzales.sql` before
deploying the shared metadata admission gate. It retains at most 60
short-lived, hashed-source receipts per instance and rejects excess
attempts with 429.
- CIMD metadata fetching is a new external-input boundary. It requires
HTTPS, exact client ID and redirect validation, bounded responses and
guarded DNS/network access. Client names remain self-reported.
- Device support is per-instance. The central Cloud broker retains its
existing grant support. Host installation and tool reload capabilities
vary by client; instructions describe manual settings and restart
requirements.

- Consent names the registered client in its heading and displays its
identifying origin below. Known-origin icons are bundled; all other
origins show a neutral site icon without contacting client-selected
sites. Client names are self-reported; the callback origin is the
recipient check. The Cloud chooser also displays the original client and
receiving origin before tenant handoff.

- A user who accepts the preselected write permission can create tasks
and comments. Task creation and comments can start or wake agents and
use execution budget; the consent label uses the concise wording
explicitly requested by the maintainer. Scope requests, role checks, and
the final Connect action still apply.
- Migration `0303_supreme_garia.sql` adds one nullable UUID column with
`IF NOT EXISTS`. Requests without a company restriction keep the
direct-instance picker. The binding stays recorded if its company is
deleted; consent then fails closed.
- Deploy tenant support before the Cloud broker sends `company_id`.
Unknown or inaccessible organizations must never fall back to a
different company.
- The setting defaults off. Disabling access does not cancel work
already delegated. Existing tokens and unexpired subscriptions can
resume when enabled again; revocation remains separate.
- The catalog entry is visible for discovery while the feature is off.
Setup instructions, OAuth, and tool execution remain gated. No access is
granted by viewing the entry.
- Assistant sign-in starts in the external client so it owns PKCE and
callback state. Client command syntax can change and links to official
setup documentation are included.
- An authenticated instance and valid public URL are required. Hosting,
paid execution, and store publication remain separate rollout steps.

serving model version and context window are not exposed in this

DottaandPaperclip e34abee670 feat(mcp): connect assistants to a team with user OAuth (#14846)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip gives teams durable tasks, agent execution, budgets, and
approvals.
> - People also use assistants in Codex, Claude, and other MCP clients.
> - Those assistants need a scoped connection that preserves the
person’s permissions and attribution.
> - Delegating a task must not turn the assistant into the assigned
agent.
> - This PR adds opt-in user OAuth, ten first-party tools, browser
consent, and workflow packages.
> - Paid product evals verify the resulting tasks, documents,
attribution, retries, and access boundaries.
> - The team keeps working after the assistant conversation ends.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

A person cannot connect an external assistant to an existing team
through browser consent and safely delegate durable work as themselves.

**Proposed solution**

Expose an opt-in `/mcp/paperclip` endpoint with individually described
first-party operations. Bind every connection to a person, client,
company, resource, and scopes. Reuse domain authorization and
scheduling. Package shared team-review, delegation, and follow-up
workflows for OpenAI/Codex and Claude.

**Alternatives considered**

Related PRs #9393 and #12549 cover earlier remote MCP and board-operator
approaches. This change uses user OAuth and a bounded public catalog. It
does not expose a generic executor, operator administration, static
shared board credentials, or external agent execution. Registry listing
work in #9851 is a separate distribution step.

**Roadmap alignment**

This maintainer-requested implementation extends the governed MCP
gateway, activity attribution, durable work products, and hosted
deployment direction in `ROADMAP.md`. It implements the first release of
the saved design plan; external agent participation and granted
third-party tools remain later releases.

## What Changed

- Add MCP 2.0 discovery and task status/comment/document Events on the
same authenticated endpoint. Persist subscriptions and delivery
receipts, verify HTTPS callbacks, sign Standard Webhooks, encrypt
callback material, recheck permissions/Cloud membership, and bound
retries/expiry. Older MCP clients keep their existing tools.
- Add discovery, dynamic client registration, S256 PKCE, resource
validation, rotating refresh tokens, revocation, and company consent.
Store credentials as hashes and recheck membership at execution.
- Add tools for connection identity, agents/projects, task
search/read/create, human comments, documents/deliverables, and
pending-approval links. Preserve current domain permissions and
scheduling.
- Add durable mutation receipts across reconnects. Matching retries
replay results; uncertain outcomes keep the same request ID and require
inspection.
- Add consent and connection-management pages, OAuth log redaction,
shared plugin workflows, and separate OpenAI/Codex and Claude package
outputs.
- Add eight paid Product E2E cases across three models, independent
durable-state grading, usage evidence, cleanup, and report integration.
Add task-document guidance and regenerate the runner capability
inventories.
- Add migrations 0301 and 0302, the dated implementation plan, result
notes, and direct-client setup instructions in `doc/public-mcp.md`.

## Verification

- Merge integration `e180b1948`: resolved conflicts with current master,
preserved both eval registries, regenerated capability catalogs, and
regenerated migrations as 0301/0302 while keeping the original
replay-safe SQL byte-identical. Local migration safety/snapshot tests
(26), MCP/OAuth tests (38), redaction/OpenAPI tests (71), and eval
catalog/grading tests (198) pass. Token and capability gates pass. Full
recursive typecheck passed. Fresh Greptile review is 5/5 with no
unresolved findings. CI is green on this exact head (55 successes, two
intentional skips, one neutral result): one unchanged Cursor sandbox
test timed out at 10 seconds, then passed locally in 856 ms. A single
retry of that failed shard and the aggregate workflow passed. Merge
remains blocked on the repository code-owner approval rule.

Earlier checks passed at `6aa0962d4fb715f2190bb7bb22efacab2e58495d`: 55
successes, two intentional skips and one neutral result. [The earlier CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36901592350)
includes all test shards, browser tests, typecheck, build and canary dry
run. Greptile was 5/5 on that commit with no unresolved review threads.
GitHub still requires code-owner review under the repository merge
rules; passing checks do not bypass that approval. Paid source
fingerprints remain separate below and in the dated result note.

- Paid Events qualification passes **3/3**: GPT-5.4 Mini, Claude Haiku
4.5 and Claude Sonnet 4.6. Each uses a real public HTTPS callback,
signature verification and report retrieval in a fresh conversation. A
final Mini regression passes after the quota/status fixes. All evidence
validates. Bounded tunnel startup retries occur before provider calls
and remain visible; failed earlier attempts retain their original
grades.
- The earlier complete seven-case matrix passes **21/21**, with a
separate **3/3** delegation regression. Two preceding matrices also
passed 21/21 each. A complete 24-cell matrix including Events has not
been run. [The dated
results](doc/plans/2026-10-01-public-mcp-paid-eval-results.md) retain
exact source fingerprints, failures, model IDs and partial costs.
- Node 24: repository-wide `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass
after merging master. Server typecheck passes after the final
quota/status changes. Eval typecheck and all 892 eval-support tests
pass.
- All 33 real MCP/OAuth tests pass. The preceding combined MCP,
redaction, private-address and DNS-rebinding run passed 129 tests; two
later MCP regressions cover quota reuse and unchanged-status
suppression. All 28 adjacent issue-tree/stale-lock route tests pass. CI
then found a null checkout result in the existing concurrent-workspace
path; logging now uses optional status access. All 12 closed-workspace
tests and all 33 MCP tests pass after that correction. The exact-start
event calibration exposed a timestamp gap; scanning now includes the
subscription start, with all 33 MCP tests and server typecheck passing.
These two narrow corrections follow the paid regression.
- A real Core → Cloud → Core authority round trip passes OAuth, MCP 2.0
subscription/delivery, current membership loss, unsubscribe, legacy SDK
tools, refresh and revocation. Its callback transport is a fixture with
independent HMAC verification. The paid Events campaigns separately
prove public HTTPS delivery.
- Earlier component qualification passed UI 7,117 tests, CLI 502, shared
832, skills catalog 20, database 160 and OpenAPI 10. Token gates, module
boundaries, migration order and plugin regeneration passed. CI covers
general/serialized suites, eight browser shards, runner checks,
typecheck, build and canary dry run.
- **Local full-suite limitation:** the earlier monolithic run was not
clean. It encountered overlapping schema rebuilding, Mac database
shared-memory limits and isolated CLI/fixture failures. Targeted reruns
passed. The existing >32 MiB Git filename stress test still hit its
300-second Mac timeout. The additional serialized sweep stopped after 62
passing suites once CI passed. Original failures and partial logs
remain; this PR does not claim a wholly green local monolithic run.
- Local Codex CLI and Claude Code OAuth login and MCP SDK
interoperability were verified. Public-store installation, actual
ChatGPT Work Cloud Events UI, staging HTTPS client behavior and hosted
newcomer provisioning remain release gates.

Enablement is moving to **Settings → Experimental → Assistant
connections (MCP)** in the stacked follow-up
[#14933](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/14933). Merge
both for the intended setup experience. This foundation branch alone
still uses `PAPERCLIP_PUBLIC_MCP_ENABLED=true`. After deployment, set
`PAPERCLIP_PUBLIC_URL` to the authenticated instance's HTTPS origin, and
connect to `/mcp/paperclip`. Select a team and allow writes in browser
consent. Configure an available agent and budget, then delegate and
retrieve results later. For Events, rescan the deployed plugin catalog
in ChatGPT Work Cloud; the host supplies its webhook credentials when
the user asks to watch a task. See [the setup
runbook](doc/public-mcp.md).

## Risks

- Events are at-least-once and may arrive out of order. No replay cursor
is advertised. Clients must refresh finite subscriptions, read current
state and avoid comment feedback loops. Callback material uses the
instance secrets master key; hosted subscriptions require the updated
Cloud broker and are bounded to five minutes/the access proof expiry.
- ChatGPT Work Cloud/dot event UI, plugin rescan and a hosted staging
subscription remain deployment gates. Local signed-webhook and paid
model evidence does not claim those surfaces have been exercised.
- Disabled by default. Merging adds schema and opt-in code; it does not
deploy a public endpoint, publish a store listing, create a team, or
start paid agents.
- Migrations 0301 and 0302 are additive and idempotent. Their SQL is
unchanged from the earlier preview numbers, so hash-aware upgrade
reconciliation preserves prior staging applications. Normal instance
upgrades must apply it before enabling MCP.
- Task creation and comments can schedule paid agent work. Consent and
tool descriptions disclose that effect. Revocation blocks future calls
but does not undo delegated work.
- Public deployments need edge rate limits and credential-safe logging.
Internal dispatch is restricted to the closed catalog and carries a
request-local verified actor.
- Hosted onboarding requires the companion Cloud broker, encryption-key
configuration, and tenant rollout. Self-hosted direct connections can
use this PR alone.
- Store acceptance and agent-mode participation are not claimed.
Checked-in plugin endpoints are development defaults; rebuild packages
for a real deployment before installation.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 in Codex, with reasoning, tool use, and code execution. A
more specific serving version and context-window size were not exposed
by the session. Paid eval models: `gpt-5.4-mini-2026-03-17`,
`claude-haiku-4-5-20251001`, and `claude-sonnet-4-6`.

DottaandPaperclip 16b7db35ff Shorten planning skills and measure task decomposition (#15296)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages work for AI agents.
> - Planning guidance helps agents choose owners and dependencies.
> - The runtime skill favors few tasks, but the catalog skill requires a
child-task breakdown.
> - Both add repeated process instructions that can distract from the
requested outcome.
> - This change keeps the ownership and dependency rules and removes the
required matrix and repeated checklist.
> - A bounded Product E2E comparison measures saved outcomes and task
handoffs before qualification.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #11057. Related measurement work: #15218.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
Planning and delegation through the runtime plan-to-tasks and bundled
task-planning skills.

**Current behavior**
The two skills contain about 1,900 words and conflicting guidance on
whether plans require child tasks.

**Proposed behavior**
Keep cohesive work with one owner. Split only for a real owner, parallel
output, dependency, independent review, or follow-up lifecycle. Preserve
existing authorization and planning mechanics.

## What Changed

- Shorten both skills to about 400 words combined. Preserve their keys
and installed-version behavior.
- Remove the duplicate operational-skill pointer and regenerate affected
source metadata.
- Add twelve explicit Product E2E cells: four scenarios with current,
short and disabled planning skills.
- Use the current task composer and actual create-response ID; calibrate
public skill APIs and browser creation without providers.
- Eliminate an observed collision in chat-test company prefixes with a
per-suite sequence.
- Grade saved documents, exact author/run attribution, child count,
prerequisite execution order, review boundaries and completion handoffs.
- Retain current skill bytes and report source, selections, run
accounting and failures.

## Verification

- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck`: pass.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:unit`: 1,287 Vitest tests and 128 Node checks
pass.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner -- --list --suite plan-task-guidance`: twelve
local Codex cells.
- Archived current skills match master
`72ff3a9f27e581a27acb49771e8658bbb0bbaa47` exactly.
- Corrected fixture: three real public-API/database calibrations pass
with zero provider runs; all 35 evaluator checks and Product E2E
typecheck pass.
- Setup campaign
[37399550253](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37399550253)
was canceled after source review found unsupported bundled edits and
automatic core reinstallation. Its paid-cell step was skipped: zero
provider runs, no behavioral grade.
- The next setup
[37401094799](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37401094799)
failed before task creation on the old title-field selector: zero actual
runs, original FAIL retained, cleanup passed. A real browser/API
calibration of the new helper passes with paused non-provider agents and
zero runs.
- Full local typecheck/build pass. Full local tests retain one unchanged
five-minute Git streaming timeout (also fails isolated), 9,591 passes
and 5,796 skips. CI's chat failure was a proven random fixture-prefix
collision; five affected cases pass after the test-only repair.
- Paid behavior comparison and new-head CI/review remain pending. This
PR remains a draft.

## Risks

- The shorter text may change delegation decisions. Live outcomes are
not yet qualified.
- The initial comparison uses one profile and one attempt per cell. It
cannot establish cross-model reliability or cost trends.
- Disabled means unassigned company-owned copies; the company library
remains discoverable. This does not qualify global removal, automatic
accepted-plan wiring changes, or installed-copy migration.
- Skill availability does not prove a model read or cognitively used it.
- No provider/tool protocol, permission, timeout or runtime lifecycle
behavior changes in production.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex (GPT-6), with repository inspection, code editing and tool
use. The exact backend model ID and context-window size are not exposed
in this session. The declared eval model is native Codex `gpt-5.6-sol`.

DottaandPaperclip 72ff3a9f27 Measure native tool context and expand bounded workflow evals (#15218)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages persistent agents and their assigned work.
> - Agents receive both fixed instructions and tool definitions.
> - Moving a procedure into a tool description still adds model context.
> - We need to measure the complete delivered catalog and test real
outcomes.
> - The tested reductions saved little space and introduced failing
outcomes.
> - This PR keeps measurement, bounded eval coverage and the original
evidence.
> - Production prompts, tools and runtime behavior stay unchanged.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #15151, #14961, #14948, #14985.

This adds the measurement and eval coverage needed to assess further
native
instruction changes. The attempted hiring and dependency reduction
failed
qualification and is excluded from the final diff.

## What Changed

- Measure the actual standard-mode tool authority, including all 39
tools and their input schemas. Capture scripted native start, resume and
continuation payloads and the OpenCode MCP declaration list.
- Add OpenCode to the two explicit-only local hiring/reuse and
delegation/feedback stories. Preserve the original task requests and
independent oracles.
- Apply one attempt per selected story and explicit company and
lead-agent budget stops.
- Select managed hiring credentials from the requested profile,
including OpenRouter.
- Run the existing Node test files under Node instead of collecting them
as Vitest suites.
- Retain sanitized comparison reports, original failed grades, source
hashes and evidence gaps.

## Verification

Final source: `2e7cef78eef7cdfe02265e0dcb03e855b8e50bd8`. Local
verification passes:

- Full repository `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`.
- Eval-support unit tests: 1,252 Vitest checks and 128 Node checks.
- Eval TypeScript check and six final-source measurement tests. All 36
normalized
components across nine scripted deliveries and the OpenCode MCP catalog
match
the baseline exactly; the complete standing projection is 49,200 bytes.

Fresh review of this exact head is [5/5 with no remaining
findings](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/15218#issuecomment-5996723170);
all three review threads are resolved.
[Final-head
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37354539126)
passes all 47 jobs, including repository typecheck, build, tests, runner
checks,
browser shards and the canary check. One initial annotation-test timeout
is
retained in attempt 1; its seven-test suite passed locally, and the
affected
CI lane passed on one targeted retry. No source or paid eval rerun was
needed.

Both ready-transition security scans passed with zero annotations. The
PR is
out of draft and conflict-free. GitHub still requires code-owner
approval for
the `package.json` test-script change; its requested reviewers are
already set.

A byte-for-byte comparison against master context
`a65ca0950834a85bb93bcc4b4042ecacdebfef53` confirms no production
changes under
`packages/` or production `server/` paths. The only server addition is a
measurement test. No new paid rerun is needed to compare unchanged
production
bytes. This does not claim that existing product defects have been
fixed.

The rejected corrected experiment had baseline **5 PASS / 1 FAIL** and
candidate
**3 PASS / 3 FAIL**, including **two newly failing pairs**. The later
readiness
experiment had candidate **3 PASS / 3 FAIL** and baseline **3 PASS / 2
FAIL / one
setup cell without a behavioral grade**. Its five comparable pairs had
two new
failures, two new passes and one unchanged pass. The missing baseline
Codex
cell never reached its provider step because Docker setup timed out.

The observed missing behaviors include parent continuation, waiting for
the
latest child revision, revised ZIP delivery and OpenCode credential
persistence.
Those failures remain failures. Source review and passing CI do not
regrade them.
The original reduction saved 460 bytes; its first repair saved only 125
bytes,
and the larger unqualified runtime repair increased the full projection.
None
of those production changes is shipped here.

Read the
[report](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/2e7cef78eef7cdfe02265e0dcb03e855b8e50bd8/doc/plans/2026-10-05-native-procedure-guidance.md)
and its linked sanitized receipts for exact
sources, original campaign links, pair-level results and evidence
limitations.

## Risks

- Full-catalog bytes are not model tokens, invoices, private vendor
prompts, lazy-loading behavior or truncation proof.
- The two stories are explicit-only and do not prove general coding
quality or arbitrary resume behavior. Single trials do not establish
causation or performance trends.
- The retained OpenCode candidate credential guard failed. Cleanup
removed the original provider database, so the precise persistence
mechanism remains unknown. The guard is unchanged.
- ACPX provider-execution IDs lack proven host-call mapping. No
extra-work or feedback-consumption claim is inferred by matching names,
order or counts.
- PostgreSQL cannot start locally while the host's shared-memory slots
are exhausted. Hosted CI must supply the full database checks; the full
local database suite is not claimed green.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip a386a59998 Reduce repeated native completion guidance and preserve final replies (#15151)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native agents receive task constraints and completion tools from
Paperclip.
> - Completion tools already define the procedure for reporting a
result.
> - Repeated procedure text adds instructions to each full task turn.
> - The final reply must still explain a blocker and link a saved
document.
> - This pull request removes repeated procedure text and keeps these
visible outcome requirements explicit.
> - A document receipt supplies the exact link, and stricter evals check
the persisted reply and browser navigation.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #14961. Related: #14948 and #15007.

**What happened?**

Native task envelopes repeat completion procedure text. A reduced
envelope needs explicit final-reply requirements. The `write_document`
receipt also lacks a canonical document link.

**Expected behavior**

Keep the completion tools as the source of procedure details. Require
one accepted completion result before the final reply. A blocked reply
must explain the reason, owner and unblock action. A document reply must
contain a working link to the saved document.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run the native assigned-skill document case and native blocker case.
2. Inspect the run-attributed provider final and its persisted comment.
3. Check the blocker explanation or open the final reply's document
link.

## What Changed

- Remove repeated completion procedure text from the native task
constraints and backend instructions.
- Keep explicit blocker and document-link requirements in full task
turns.
- Return a company/task-scoped `documentHref` from `write_document`.
Preserve the link in the idempotent mutation receipt.
- Repeat canonical links for this run's current saved revisions in
accepted completion feedback. Give blocked providers final-response
guidance for the cause, owner and unblock action.
- Keep internal document/comment anchors when Markdown issue links load
cached issue details.
- Add a manual six-cell comparison suite with strict source, build,
default-instruction and budget admission.
- Capture eighteen shared runnerd RPC projections and six direct
OpenCode HTTP projections across start, resume and continuation phases,
using scripted local transports and no provider execution.
- Apply v3 checks only to the manual instruction comparison; preserve v2
checks for the existing native completion suite. Check the actual
persisted blocker reason and exact saved-document link. Click the
rendered document link and check the original content marker in the
classic document card or the new document tab.
- Forward exact OpenCode finishing calls through the controller. Wait
for acceptance, keep accepted feedback and concrete rejection text, and
reject malformed responses. Preserve ordinary dynamic-tool response
handling.
- Settle the completion decision and tool response before mapping a
racing idle/error/abort event or handling explicit close/interruption.
Reject a concurrent finishing call before controller admission.
- Add a provider-free regression through real runnerd, the OpenCode
proxy and a fake provider. Reject the first completion, accept the
corrected report in the same turn, and propose one result.
- Keep all original verdicts unchanged. Treat replay under new checks as
separate diagnostics.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass locally.
- Native document-authority tests pass, including company/run
authorization and idempotent replay.
- Native runtime-context, backend and measurement tests pass.
- Final-answer calibration, protocol scoring, source-admission and
catalog tests pass. Wrong reasons, absent links and wrong link targets
fail.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck` passes. Discovery lists exactly six
single-attempt local cells with the declared models.
- Exported `prepareNativeInstructionPreflight` then
`verifyNativeInstructionPreflight` pass on this clean committed source.
They build locally and make zero provider calls.
- Corrective live confirmation is incomplete. Source 3a7349d passed both
Claude and both Codex cases. OpenCode saved the correct document but
omitted its final link; its blocker case was canceled before paid
execution. Preserve this failure. The e171282 confirmation was stopped
during build after fresh review found a completion-settlement race; it
executed zero providers. Source c3e0cb303 fixes that race. Two affected
OpenCode cases await fresh review and one bounded confirmation; earlier
results remain attributed to their original source.
- OpenCode proxy parsing, driver, factory and input tests: 81 pass
across retained focused runs, including six settlement races.
Evaluator/scoring/admission checks: 122 pass. The real proxy regression
passes. Fresh local prepare then verify passes with 18 shared and 6
direct scripted captures, fresh SDK/Rust builds and zero providers.
- The full local suite recorded two failures: a webhook timeout and a
Git-scan load count mismatch. Both files pass in isolation with
unchanged assertions/time budgets; preserve the original failure log.
Fresh c3e0cb303 CI and review are pending. This PR remains draft.

## Risks

- Final-answer wording can vary by provider. The checks cover the
declared release-access blocker and saved document fixture, not general
answer quality.
- A single trial does not establish general equivalence, cause, speed,
cost or live resume behavior.
- `documentHref` is an additive receipt field. It points to the current
saved document, not an immutable historical revision. Replaying an older
receipt does not fabricate a new link.
- The correction adds four production paths for document receipts,
accepted completion feedback and UI navigation, plus four OpenCode
controller/proxy paths, beyond the original three instruction paths.
Completion rejection must remain repairable; the production-boundary
regression covers it.
- Preserve the frozen comparison context for live measurement. A
merge-tree check against current master is clean. Do not relabel earlier
live results as results from a later source tree.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family. The exact serving model ID and context
window are unavailable in this session. Capabilities used: reasoning,
code editing, shell execution, test authoring and evidence review.

DottaandPaperclip b17019e14d fix(agents): reduce default instructions and qualify stock harnesses (#14948)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Its adapters supply task context and access to Paperclip skills and
tools.
> - The default hire manual and shared prompts also repeat general work
procedures.
> - Those procedures overlap with stock provider instructions and the
Paperclip skill.
> - Existing E2E fixtures supply a QA manual, so they do not qualify the
production default.
> - This pull request reduces the generic instructions and adds real
default-hire coverage.
> - The benefit is less competing guidance, with inspectable evidence
for preserved skills and task context.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #14920. That merged change preserves native Codex base
instructions. This PR covers the default manual, shared legacy prompts,
operational skill guidance, and the narrowly approved ACP
skill-discovery/session-environment repair for measured delivery and
credential-persistence failures.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

New non-CEO hires without a custom bundle and legacy task/chat startup
and continuation prompts.

**Current behavior**

The shipped default manual contains 602 words. Generic task/chat prompts
and ordinary resume deltas repeat work procedures already available
through the harness and Paperclip skill.

**Proposed behavior**

The default manual contains only the eight-word company identity. Shared
startup prompts retain identity and connection guidance. Ordinary resume
deltas retain current work context without the generic execution
contract.

**Reason and benefit**

Let the stock harness guide general work. Keep Paperclip-specific
capabilities and independently test default hires, skills, ordered
comments, and chat restart.

**Breaking changes**

New default hires receive less guidance. Existing saved manuals,
explicit custom bundles, CEO templates, and specialized wake contracts
retain their behavior. The obsolete includeExecutionContract option
remains accepted for source compatibility.

## What Changed

- Reduce the default hire manual to one sentence.
- Reduce shared task/chat defaults and remove the generic
ordinary-resume contract.
- Keep connection guidance, auth, skills, custom prompts, and
specialized wake context.
- Add credential-free instruction-boundary gates and 26 explicit Product
E2E cells across eight legacy/native profiles, including two focused
Paperclip-storage cases.
- Capture public hire receipts before providers run, then grade
delivered prompts and independent task/chat outcomes.
- Add an early legacy skill API recipe for saving a task document,
checking the saved revision receipt and linking the document. Improve
stock task/heartbeat skill-selection metadata and show a clickable
Markdown UI-link example. Keep native tool completion separate.
- Advertise bounded routing descriptions and exact successfully staged
SKILL.md paths in legacy ACP Claude; keep full bodies on demand and
preserve remote path rebasing.
- Remove only the provider environment from copied persisted ACP session
records, while loading current run credentials and preserving all other
options/conversation state.
- Regenerate both capability metadata inventories and reject stale
manifests/inventories before provider admission.
- Publish the original reduction and focused skill-repair comparisons,
preserving all failures, automatic recovery, cost coverage and
limitations.

## Verification

**Behavioral qualification remains pending.** Original legacy ACP Claude
loses the issue document only in the reduced cohort beneath an unchanged
credential failure. A source-backed diagnosis finds that neither
ordinary assignment reads the staged operational skill, while the
runtime persists provider environment in session state. The new common
repairs expose skill metadata/path and omit persisted env; strict
document and credential guards stay intact. [Inspectable diagnosis and
retained
hashes](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/9f654db4541d3d002769c988f6e51fc0b08dadbd/doc/plans/2026-10-03-legacy-acp-claude-readiness.md).

Current repair head `de0965984ff3edf611ae6d0e7ca5c7d5ae3947bb`
incorporates master `569c7203aa24b95440682983ce7940ba1d4247bd` (merged
#14961/#15007). All 222 affected adapter tests, adapter-utils/E2E
typechecks, and final 96 variant/grader/retry calibrations pass. The
frozen historical comparator is
`c25697f4260b6f3adfea143c3ae9932e2f42986d`: 8,280 of 8,291 paths
identical, exactly two production instruction paths plus nine declared
unit expectations differ. The operational skill/discovery/environment
repairs, selected model/profile/task/core grader/auth/permissions/retry
policy are identical. Both actual launcher prepare→verify admissions
pass with zero providers. [Immutable manifest and exact
receipts](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/9f654db4541d3d002769c988f6e51fc0b08dadbd/doc/plans/2026-10-03-legacy-acp-claude-evidence/manifest.json).

One original legacy ACP Claude cell per variant is authorized, with
enforced single campaign attempts, 12-minute deadlines and company/agent
1,000-cent hard stops; every product recovery run/cost is counted.
Actual live outcomes are pending. Current normal CI has one failed
server shard and failed aggregate verify under diagnosis; other normal
gates including typecheck/build/Rust/all eight browser shards pass.
Fresh review completed successfully; the valid historical startup/resume
masking finding was fixed with per-invocation task/chat checks and
strict complete-snapshot capture, calibrated and resolved. Prior heads,
failures and campaigns below remain historical evidence, not checks on
this repair head.

- Prior head `36aa4d81c49a1a8f6f04b1a068fae19aa901955f` is replayed on
merged hiring master `862a5758ba0e88a33232c1f1fa645e85c38a3113`. All 52
current-head checks pass with two intentional Storybook skips, including
repository typecheck/test/build and the browser shard. Fresh Greptile is
5/5 with zero unresolved review threads. Exact-head stock prerequisites
pass 599 assertions (598 TypeScript + 1 Rust), all six gates and
retained receipt verification, zero providers/source errors. Fingerprint
`a7f5a22d860a88fe20cce213c6d5e0004788f32c8363930729aea4fd740ad16d`.
Combined catalog/hiring calibrations pass 67 assertions, E2E typecheck
and 26-cell stock discovery pass. Canonical contract/inventory checks
and the later issue-derived reference calibration are retained; that
reference-only follow-up is not live-qualified by earlier frozen runs.
- Prior full repository typecheck/build passed. The complete local
Vitest run executed 14,956 tests: 14,870 passed, 83 skipped, three
timing failures. All three affected files passed unchanged narrow
reruns; original failures remain retained. Current-head CI now passes
the full general checks; the original local failures remain retained.
- The original 24-pair default-manual/shared-prompt comparison has two
new overall classic Claude/OpenCode document-delivery failures plus an
additional legacy ACP Claude document loss beneath an unchanged
credential-guard failure (not closed by later runs), two newly passing
OpenCode ordered cases, seven unchanged failures and 13 unchanged
passes. Equal 15/24 totals do not establish behavioral equivalence.

- The skill-only repair holds the eight-word manual/shared prompts and
merged #14920 fixed. All four matched profile configurations and 203
fixture/behavior files match. Candidate
`abd0b628ca642c09a54a4edc56a5227402f6686e` varies only the two skill
sources against baseline `bc83fe030234439ac51279502a28803958963e2e`.
[Candidate
workflow](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37060885547)
and [baseline
workflow](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37060888047)
each pass 571 exact-source prerequisites before providers; all eight
cells clean up successfully. Failed campaigns publish successfully and
remain failed.
- Repair pairs: Claude original Fail → Pass; Claude explicit Pass →
Pass; both OpenCode cases Fail → Fail. Explicit OpenCode's handoff
worsens beneath the unchanged failing UI-link grade: baseline gives a
clickable API URL, candidate gives a code-formatted path without an
anchor. The request's usable-link wording is narrower in the UI-only
oracle. [Complete repair report and safe
projection](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/875f4c397d9e8c3f12f39dedd59abaf1eaf5236e/doc/plans/2026-10-02-legacy-document-skill-repair.md).
- The subsequent narrow stock metadata/link correction has two matched
Pass → Pass cases, zero new machine failures/passes and no pending
pairs. Both original-case handoff links remain deficient: candidate uses
a wrong PAP prefix, baseline supplies a bare prefix-less slug path; the
preserved original oracle only requires a durable document. Both
explicit clickable UI-link cases pass revision/content/link grading. All
four exact-source 587-check gates, single assignment runs and cleanup
pass. This does not establish fix causality because baseline also
succeeds. [Candidate
workflow](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37069547401)
freezes `fe9dc1e3c518825242ed889ab9c8352986f8c2ed`; [matched
baseline](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37069552374)
freezes `0d7ecfa96d72fba79b7f0a25052b42c0686c0488`. This is a skill-only
comparison with reduced manuals/shared prompts held constant, not a
repeat of the historical-manual comparison. Only original and clarified
explicit classic OpenCode cases are selected, two per variant/four
expected turns. 8,242 other tracked files and both profile hashes match;
protected workflows admit each exact source before credentials.
[Complete qualification
report](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/74d0d3d945f4c52d0814b5a845ab5bd09f33cd6b/doc/plans/2026-10-02-opencode-skill-routing-link-qualification.md).
Candidate original loads Paperclip/reference before saving publicly;
baseline original loads it after writing locally, then saves publicly
within the same assignment. Reported cost totals are $0.0107824490
candidate / $0.0107909015 baseline, with unmetered runtime. The later
reference-only issue-derived link correction is provider-free calibrated
and **not live-qualified** by these frozen runs; no further paid runs.
- Retained tool calls show the repaired original OpenCode assignment
loads only its assigned output skill before writing locally. Operational
Paperclip is first loaded during automatic disposition recovery; its
early recipe is visible then, but it never saves the missing document.
Explicit candidate loads Paperclip and reads the new reference before
saving successfully. All nine actual runs are counted. Reported LLM
totals are $0.3802537209 baseline and $0.4918990161 candidate; local
runtime is unmetered.
- Initial setup, packaging, cancelled/missing-cell recovery, callback
test and relative-output attempts remain retained. No completed provider
failure was rerun. Frozen measurement branches are unchanged by later
canonical metadata maintenance.
- Run `pnpm test:e2e:runner:stock-harness`, `pnpm test:e2e:runner:unit`,
and `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck`. Select `stock-harness` explicitly
for paid execution; it is excluded from `--all`.

Prior-head integration: `36aa4d81c49a1a8f6f04b1a068fae19aa901955f`
replays this PR on merged hiring #14985
(`862a5758ba0e88a33232c1f1fa645e85c38a3113`), preserving the four
explicit custom-CEO-bundle checks, minimal generic manual boundary, and
both suites. The combined fixture catalog and hiring calibrations pass
67 assertions; exact-head stock prerequisites pass 599 assertions (598
TypeScript + 1 Rust), all six gates and retained-receipt verification,
zero providers/source errors, fingerprint
`a7f5a22d860a88fe20cce213c6d5e0004788f32c8363930729aea4fd740ad16d`. E2E
typecheck and 26-cell stock discovery pass. Fresh current-head CI passes
all 52 checks with two intentional skips, and fresh Greptile is 5/5 with
zero unresolved review threads.

The prior source-plan browser failure is retained: a deterministic
process fixture replayed its last `fixture:plan` command on
`chat_task_completed`, writing revision 2 with identical body after the
approval handoff. This was not paid provider execution. Rebased
current-head CI passes the same assertion without an old-head retry or a
change to that browser fixture.

The merged hiring change was measured separately on immutable matched
unions, with this reduced/shared/operational context and native
completion guidance held constant. [Complete original two-profile
report](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/f0512647656be78e48abd8c22a3078db8bf6bcd2/doc/plans/2026-10-02-hiring-template-live-comparison.md):
[candidate](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37075466208)
/ [historical
baseline](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37075469463),
705 provider-free prerequisites each. Both pairs are unchanged Fail →
Fail on the exact-five count, with six core delivery checks passing all
four cells; 28 actual successful runs include eight automatic completion
wakes, zero retries, four successful cleanups. Source-read coverage is
uncomparable, actual model charges unknown. Separately versioned
provider-free accounting remains analytical work; original verdicts are
preserved. This does not rerun or qualify the completed default-manual
or native campaigns.

## Risks

- Legacy ACP Claude's additional delivery loss is not closed by any
later matched run and blocks the no-extra-failing-behavior merge
criterion. Legacy document delivery may have relied on the prior
manual/shared prompts. The early skill repair improves Claude in one
trial; the later OpenCode pairs pass in both variants and cannot
establish causality or robust recovery. Both original-case links remain
deficient beneath the storage-only grade. The later issue-derived
reference correction has only provider-free validation. Native
finish/block descriptions must not be supplied to legacy agents.
- The comparison holds merged native Codex fix #14920 constant; it
cannot measure that fix's before/after task performance.
- These bounded skill/context/chat workflows do not measure general
coding quality. Unrepresented providers remain unqualified.
- Saved manuals and old Codex sessions are not automatically migrated.
Codex through ACP still has a separate base-instruction follow-up.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family as identified by this session. The exact
deployment ID and context-window size are not exposed. The assistant

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Product E2E evals check real hiring and delegated task completion.
> - The hiring fixture requires three requested CEO turns and two coder
executions.
> - The server can also wake the CEO when each delegated task completes.
> - Two exact-five-run guards rejected these valid completion turns in
all four retained cells.
> - This pull request validates bounded completion turns in both guards.
> - The benefit is accurate workflow grading while all actual runs and
coverage failures remain visible.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #14985, #14948, #14961.

**What happened?**

The original hiring comparison reports Codex Fail → Fail and Claude Fail
→ Fail. Each cell has seven successful runs. The five requested work
turns are accompanied by two server task-completion notifications. All
six other delivery checks pass.

**Expected behavior**

Require exactly three distinct user-requested CEO turns and one coder
execution for each of two known tasks. Admit at most two strictly
attributed server completion turns, including one turn that batches both
tasks. Reject unknown, duplicate, failed, retried or extra-work runs.

**Steps to reproduce**

Inspect the retained four-cell report linked below. Each original result
fails `five-successful-turns`. The same exact count was also enforced by
the final chat-flow guard.

## What Changed

- Add one typed lifecycle helper shared by the hiring scorer and the
hiring-only final chat guard.
- Validate public run ledgers, company/user/account identity, request
attribution, task origins, completion deliveries, timing and replies.
- Keep exactly five required work turns; declare seven maximum total
turns for cost and timeout planning.
- Count all actual runs, including notification runs and unexpected
resets. Keep other chat count guards unchanged.
- Version the hiring grader as v3 (turn accounting v2) and include the
helper and chat guard in its definition digest.
- Keep source-read, exact coder-body and all six other delivery checks
unchanged.
- Add 144 focused helper/scorer/settlement calibrations and separately
versioned exact retained-input replay reports.
- Retry complete bracketed observations, await both owed callbacks and
attributed replies, and refresh the final guard consistently.
- Reject unrelated completion writes and failed mutation attempts using
exact canonical/native action IDs. Missing identity mapping is
uncomparable action coverage.

## Verification

- All 977 credential-free E2E support tests pass across 64 files,
including 144 focused lifecycle/action/scorer/settlement calibrations.
- E2E typecheck, ordinary plugin SDK and Runner TypeScript dependency
builds, capability contract/inventory checks and the existing two-cell
hiring discovery pass.
- [Executable replay
report](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/fed1729018cc100f5f4bbfb692777e49009c423b/doc/plans/2026-10-02-hiring-executable-accounting-replay.md)
pins current code revision `e4077ade1818d98b9862ae79ee1d49a007dcf9c1`,
v3 definition digest, exact source/input hashes and each original/new
check.
- The stricter replay verifies both Codex variants through both
executable guards. ACPX Claude action attribution remains
unresolved/uncomparable because provider execution IDs cannot be exactly
joined to native request IDs; guards fail closed. No notification writes
are observed. All six other outcomes and every original source/template
coverage check stay unchanged. Original files and Fail → Fail machine
verdicts remain preserved; zero providers are called.
- Full attempts remain uncomparable in both profiles. Historical Claude
also keeps its six-backtick exact-template mismatch. This grading repair
does not prove model-performance equivalence.
- The limited sidecar-v1 and initial executable-v2 passes checked
notification-created tasks but could miss unrelated document writes.
Those assessments remain preserved and do not prove harmless
notifications. The stricter v3 replay is separate.
- [Original measurement and separate
sidecar](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/8eb517ca1497687237163bdef4dfc4d3332ea916/doc/plans/2026-10-02-hiring-template-live-comparison.md)
retain 28 actual runs, eight automatic notifications, four successful
cleanups and unknown actual model charges. No models are rerun.
- The branch is replayed on master `59c07ede7`. Intervening master
changes are UI-only; eval source bytes and replay verdicts match. The
four-cell provider-free replay was repeated against the reachable code
revision.
- Initial-head normal CI retained browser failures in agent-run denial
feedback and touch-picker scroll position. Those browser paths and
imports were unchanged, but their cause was not established. The
necessary review-fix head passes both browser checks; no blind rerun was
requested.
- Local full repository typecheck/test/build were not repeated.
Exact-head normal CI passes the required repository gates, including
typecheck, tests, build and browser shards. Fresh Greptile review
completed on `fed1729018cc100f5f4bbfb692777e49009c423b` with 5/5 and
zero unresolved threads. An independent rerun of the 144 focused
helper/scorer/settlement tests passes on the unchanged head.


**Merge readiness:** This PR repairs the evaluator. Its positive and
negative calibrations pass, both guards reject missing action
attribution, current-head CI and review pass, and there are no merge
conflicts. The retained ACPX cells remain uncomparable because their
action IDs cannot be joined. That coverage limit remains a separate
follow-up; it does not require relaxing this grader or changing the old
results. No model calls, production instructions, carrier changes, or
historical regrades are part of this readiness update.

## Risks

- Missing or inconsistent public lifecycle evidence fails the bounded
helper. The focused calibrations reject plausible false positives and
malformed observations. Unmatched action IDs fail closed and are
reported as uncomparable rather than a model task regression.
- Source-read evidence remains incomplete. This PR does not change
provider event carriers or relax the coverage oracle.
- The versioned count check differs from original v1 results. Reports
retain both versions and exact input hashes.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family as identified by this session. The exact
deployment ID and context-window size are not exposed. The assistant
used reasoning, repository tools, code execution and delegated
calibration work.

DottaandPaperclip dd868ed125 fix(runner): share native completion tool guidance (#14961)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Native Runner agents report completion through finish and block
tools.
> - The providers receive different descriptions for those tools.
> - Completion guidance belongs with the tools that enforce the result.
> - This pull request shares the descriptions and refreshes retained
catalogs.
> - A separate native suite checks completion and blocking on production
defaults.
> - Legacy agents retain their separate skill and API paths.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #14920, #14948, #14985.

**Current behavior**

Native Codex and MCP bridges describe finish and block differently.
Retained provider sessions can keep old descriptions.

**Proposed behavior**

Native providers receive the same finish and block descriptions. The
descriptions cover report selection, validation feedback, returned
outcomes, approval gates and final-answer timing. Retained native
sessions refresh from v13 to v14.

**Reason and benefit**

Put the completion procedure next to its native tool. Preserve stock
base instructions, schemas, permissions and terminal semantics. This PR
now stands alone on master. It contains no reduced manual, shared prompt
or operational-skill changes from #14948.

## What Changed

- Add canonical native finish and block descriptions. Use them in direct
Codex and both native MCP bridges.
- Advance the native tool contract to v14. Cover old-v13 refresh without
replacing task identity or prior history.
- Check authenticated tool catalogs, provider start/resume frames and
serialized daemon catalogs.
- Add an independent, explicit-only native completion suite. Preserve
the original assigned-skill durable-document journey. Pair it with a
concrete whole-task blocker across Codex, ACPX Claude and OpenCode.
- Verify the actual public production default bundle and budgets before
execution. Require independent durable disposition, native
result/terminal receipts and observable provider-final ordering.
- Correct the blocker browser oracle to accept the requested
explanation. Keep exact owner/action/scope checks. Calibrate positive,
missing and contradictory replies.
- Preserve only actual `tool_call` terminal names (`paperclip_finish` /
`paperclip_block`) in the native compatibility run-log projection.
Require the same named call ID through its finishing result; retain all
other redaction boundaries.
- Admit verified hosted shallow checkout/build hydration and bind the
selected runnerd to exact source/archive/binary provenance. Hosted cells
truthfully reuse the existing trusted build; local admission executes
Rust calibration. Forward only public source/run identifiers through
both launcher preflight subprocess paths.
- Enforce single attempts in the launcher for opted-in fixtures. Keep
ordinary retry policy unchanged. Run exact-source, credential-free
admission before credential loading.

## Verification

- Frozen candidate: `d6e59e4712a3158ab4cd7d58deff1389b4578c21`, based on
master `59c07ede72dc08b8aba149a01cc11e0b7a204621`; historical
descriptions: `e74ed61a69fbdd8b3a8f15dd6456bc3140246e33`. Exactly the
five original native production files and six unit tests differ. Both
carry identical corrected fixtures, strict named finishing-call grader,
closed compatibility carrier and admission. Defaults,
profiles/models/auth/permissions and manifest bytes match.
- Actual launcher `prepareNativeCompletionPreflight` →
`verifyNativeCompletionPreflight` admission passes on both exact refs
with zero providers: candidate 132 / historical 127 selected TypeScript
assertions, 128 Node calibrations and one Rust normalization calibration
each; E2E typecheck, manifest checks, selected binary provenance and
six-cell discovery pass. Each has 257 explicitly skipped unrelated
assertions, not coverage. The credential-free environment calibration
exercises both real prepare/verify subprocess options with public hosted
identifiers and rejects credential/ambient overrides. Complete actual
launcher prepare→verify also passes on both frozen refs with explicitly
synthetic hosted metadata/verified archives, separately labeled as
calibration rather than a trusted GitHub run. Exact framed provenance
parsing and mock source identity are calibrated without relaxing the
real verifier.
- [Complete matched qualification

are inspectable. All six candidate cells pass; historical descriptions
pass five. Paired outcomes: **zero new failures, one new pass (Codex
blocker), five unchanged passes, zero pending pairs**. [Candidate
campaign](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37098728980)
and [historical
campaign](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37098815696)
each execute six original attempt-1 native runs, with no campaign retry
and successful cleanup. Their trusted workflow revision is
`215586d127e97c9301d86e769a39a15c13298ca2`, separate from measured
source. [Candidate public
HTML](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-37098728980-1/index.html)
and [historical public
HTML](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-37098815696-1/index.html)
retain declared screenshots.
- Independent candidate evidence agrees with all original grades: 51
strict native checks, 12 served-default/budget checks and 21 original
skill/document checks pass. The historical Codex blocker saves the
correct whole-task blocker but omits the required marker from its actual
provider final and identical saved reply. This is not semantic-summary
fallback. Its original browser/matcher failure stays retained; the
additional native snapshot/grade and workspace before/after digest were
never written and are not fabricated by the separate API/PRP audit.
Historical Codex completion has one failed finish followed by success
within the same native run; the public receipt records no failure
reason. All twelve runs and their usage remain counted. Reported
model-cost subtotals are $0.00421482 historical/$0.00437391 candidate;
Codex/Claude zero entries have unknown billing type, actual invoices are
unverified and hosted execution cost is unmetered. One matched trial
supports no extra failure within these six cases, not broad statistical
or coding-quality equivalence.
- Initial hosted `e18c2cf9` / `459455ac` and subsequent `0a9c5a7` /
`00a761b` cohorts each stopped before providers in all twelve cells. The
latter failed a mocked-receipt unit test under ambient hosted metadata;
all source/build proofs passed. [All twelve later setup
receipts](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/402ee94c52273ad58de355ae9a7d562dd22f8101/doc/plans/2026-10-02-native-completion-qualified-hosted-setup.json)
are retained. [Exact failed setup
receipts](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/27653eb1a8f8ce839776d760f4563f672e5a706c/doc/plans/2026-10-02-native-completion-master-hosted-setup.json)
and the original manifest remain intact. Local sandbox-denied loopback
and stale anchor-expectation attempts are retained separately; unchanged
appropriate assertions were corrected/admitted before paid dispatch. Old
anonymous OpenCode streams are not assigned inferred tool names or
retroactively passed.
- Full provider-free E2E support previously passed 927 tests in 67
files. Exact-head d6 normal CI run `37098409915`, attempt 1 passes full
repository typecheck/build/tests, Runner Rust/static checks, all browser
shards/aggregate and canary: 52 check-runs pass, four intentional skips,
Snyk passes. Fresh Greptile check `111132956342` is 5/5 with zero
unresolved threads. Source-specific deterministic tests do not
substitute for the bounded live comparison.
- Earlier native source `9138f570c341c251a5727c32d6615ce238bc8e03` is
archived. Its [complete reduced-manual-context
report](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/9138f570c341c251a5727c32d6615ce238bc8e03/doc/plans/2026-10-02-native-completion-live-comparison.md)
remains intact, including original failures, grader limits and
provider-free replay. It is not current-master-context qualification.

## Risks

Changed tool text can change model behavior. The completed six-pair
qualification shows no extra failing outcomes in this bounded trial;
other tasks and repeated-run variance remain unmeasured. Observable
final ordering does not prove provider feedback consumption. Public
evidence can fail closed if a provider does not expose the required
result sequence. This slice does not remove native fixed prompts or
measure general coding quality. No database, schema, permission or
legacy completion changes occur.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with code inspection, execution and tool
use. The exact deployment ID and context-window size are not exposed in
this session. They are unavailable rather than inferred from the model
menu.

DottaandPaperclip 862a5758ba fix(agents): reduce hiring templates to role descriptions (#14985)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for work.
> - New agents receive role instructions from onboarding, the hiring skill, or a team package.
> - These sources repeat harness procedures and impose generic work policies.
> - They can crowd out the task and the harness instructions.
> - This pull request reduces those sources to short role descriptions.
> - It preserves configuration, skills, authentication, reporting lines, and approval controls.
> - The benefit is less repeated instruction text with explicit coverage for the default hiring path.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #3307. The CEO template can impose a fixed delegation route instead of letting the agent choose how to fulfill the request. This change removes that route. It does not implement autonomous goal selection.

Related work: #14920 preserves stock Codex base instructions. #14948 reduces the generic manual and shared runtime prompts. #14961 improves native completion-tool descriptions. This PR is separate from those changes.

## What Changed

- Select only the short CEO `AGENTS.md` for new default CEO bundles. Keep the three former companion files as compatibility assets.
- Reduce the first-agent chief-of-staff prompt and coder, QA, UX, and security role examples.
- Reduce seven bundled team role bodies. Preserve their role, reporting, and skill metadata. Regenerate the catalog.
- Make hiring examples optional. Replace the long generic role manual with short role drafting guidance. Preserve explicit requester instructions.
- Add configuration and import coverage for native and legacy managed bundles, custom instructions, first-agent rendering, and catalog contents.
- Add an explicit-only hiring eval that starts from the production CEO default and checks one coder hire, independently computed JSON output, saved instructions, and worker reuse.
- Include the full prompt comparison and a separate three-request drafting simulation. Neither is a live provider comparison.

Prompt differences: [before and after](doc/plans/2026-10-02-hiring-template-prompt-diff.md). The CEO default falls from 1,897 to 20 words. The coder example falls from 652 to 18 words. Word counts describe instruction size, not outcome quality or billing.

## Verification

- PASS: 99 focused server tests and eight shipped-catalog tests.
- PASS: catalog generation and validation for four shipped teams.
- PASS: hiring skill validation.
- PASS: `pnpm -r typecheck`.
- PASS: `pnpm build`.
- INCOMPLETE: the full local `pnpm test:run` was stopped before rebase. Its original log is retained. This is not a completed full-suite pass. The full current-head GitHub CI workflow passed: https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37073372419.
- PASS: `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck` and `pnpm test:e2e:runner:unit` (63 files / 843 tests).
- PASS: discovery for the two new hiring cells, 50 existing everyday cells, and the full 438-cell catalog.
- PASS after rebase: 99 server tests, 11 catalog tests, 62 selected E2E support tests, and the E2E typecheck.
- PASS: all current-head PR checks at `57dcee147ed0b2d2e3cc657cd9e50fb16bf9ec25`: 51 successful check runs, two intentional Storybook skips, and successful Snyk status. Fresh Greptile is 5/5 with zero unresolved threads.
- PENDING follow-up: matched live hiring runs on frozen integration refs. No live outcome-quality or non-regression result is claimed from the configuration checks or this merge.

The new suite has two local native cells: Codex and ACPX Claude. It expects five provider turns per cell. It compares source-derived bundles, so the historical long templates remain admissible. Missing successful source-read receipts make a pair uncomparable. They do not establish a behavior regression or equivalence.

## Risks

- New default roles have fewer prescribed procedures. Live checks must determine whether a removed instruction was needed for an outcome.
- Existing custom and saved bundles keep their contents. The retained companion assets avoid a source-file compatibility break.
- Specialized Summarizer, Reflection Coach, and Wiki Maintainer prompts remain unchanged. Their product contracts need separate review.
- The generic non-CEO fallback reduction is in #14948. This PR alone does not provide its eight-word fallback.
- Configuration tests and drafting simulations do not establish live outcome quality. QA, UX, security, and chief-of-staff hiring behavior remain outside the new two-cell comparison.

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

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with reasoning, code editing, shell tools, and delegated verification. The runtime does not expose the exact deployment model ID or context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip 6c1a75da49 feat(connections): make AgentMail a default connection with inline setup (#14772)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Connections give agents access to external services.
> - AgentMail needs both a saved key and an inbox assigned to the agent.
> - Chat requests offered a setup link instead of an inline card and
could treat a saved key as complete.
> - Inbox setup also hid address conflicts behind a generic server error
and a separate review step.
> - This pull request makes AgentMail a default connection, adds the
inline card, reduces setup to two steps, and shows conflicts beside the
address.
> - Shared native dropdown styles also give every caret a consistent
inset.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

AgentMail requests in chat did not show a usable inline connection card.
Manual setup required extra screens, ignored saved account keys, and
could trap new-address setup in a locked inbox dropdown. Agent selectors
omitted the avatar from the selected value. A taken address could
produce an HTTP 403 from AgentMail and appear as an internal server
error. Native dropdown arrows also touched the right edge of their
fields.

**Expected behavior**

Make AgentMail available as a default connection. Ask for the API key
inline, with a direct link to its provider page. Default human access to
the company and agent access to the requesting agent. Resume the agent
only after an assigned inbox is active. Manual setup should ask for an
agent and email address, then finish. Address checks should run as the
user types. Taken addresses should show clickable alternatives. A domain
dropdown beside the name should prefer a verified custom domain. Setup
should suggest authorized saved AgentMail keys and show agent avatars in
the picker and selected value.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Ask an agent to connect AgentMail when it has no assigned inbox.
2. Check that an inline API-key card appears and links to the provider's
API-key page.
3. Open AgentMail setup, choose an agent, and request an address that is
already taken.
4. Correct the inline error, refresh, and finish setup with the same
request ID.
5. Inspect native dropdown carets in light, dark, disabled, and
right-to-left states.

Uses the bounded provider-error parser merged in #14768. Related work:
#13256 introduced AgentMail; #14725 expanded connection search.

## What Changed

- Stop recurring email queries for tasks that have no email thread.
Share the query between the thread provider and activity view. Keep
email-task updates and invalidation-based discovery.
- Make AgentMail available without the experimental chat setting. Keep
the catalog, setup and management routes, agent Channels tab, task email
feed, receiving worker, and agent tools available by default. Other
experimental chat providers stay gated.

- Make the email address and copy icon a single clickable action with
the shared Copied! confirmation. Add View inbox linking directly to the
matching AgentMail console inbox, with the address encoded as one URL
path segment.

- Reorganize inbox Settings around the copyable email address, usage
instructions, and receiving status. Move reconnect credentials into a
disclosure and separate the Disconnect action. Add production Settings
stories for active, paused, unassigned-address, revoked, webhook,
long-address, mobile, and reconnect states. Show repair controls when
the inbox has an error. Keep usage instructions tied to an active inbox
with an address.

- Add AgentMail channel intents and an inline key field with the direct
API-key URL.
- Keep setup and retry state tied to the interaction. Require an active
inbox for completion. Preserve company and agent access checks.
- Reduce manual setup to agent selection and email selection. Put the
domain dropdown beside the address and default to a verified custom
domain. Preserve explicit choices across reloads. Keep receiving
settings under Advanced options.
- Check the initial address and edits after a 350 ms pause. Abort
superseded requests and ignore stale responses. Show clickable
suggestions and retain known creation conflicts across reloads.
- Add a company-scoped, manager-only address check using the saved
credential. Search the visible inbox list instead of fetching an
uncreated inbox: live AgentMail retains negative lookups that can break
subsequent access-key creation. Unlisted addresses remain unknown;
creation is authoritative.
- Suggest labeled saved AgentMail keys in both manual setup and the
inline card. Filter by company, provider, active credential, and
current-user grants on the server. Prefer an account key and preserve
the selected key or an explicit new-key choice across refresh. Use
verified scope metadata and bounded concurrent checks for legacy keys.
Never return secret values.
- Catch an inbox-only key before the email step. Allow its existing
inbox only after an explicit choice. Recover old locked drafts at the
key picker. Save the replacement key before retiring an empty draft,
then use a new setup URL so refresh preserves the switched account; stop
if cleanup fails. Preserve already allocated addresses and their
original accounts.
- Use the shared AgentSelect in email setup. Show the canonical agent
avatar in each option and the selected value, including other consumers
of the shared component. Add regression coverage for legacy and current
Lucide agent-mention icon formats.
- Start each catalog Add connection with a fresh setup identity. Honor
Finish setup's exact draft/account/address instead of resuming an
unrelated browser draft. Return Cancel and Done to Connectors and Email
settings to the inbox. Group the task/thread explanation in a How it
Works card.
- Route AgentMail catalog removal through the email inbox control API,
including unfinished drafts. Refresh both the catalog and inbox views.
- Render each inbox management tab separately. Access uses the saved
account grants and agent controls; Conversations and Activity use the
shared persisted email feed. Activity lifecycle actions use the email
API. Reconnect returns to inbox Settings. Conversation failures show a
retry instead of a false empty state. Email delivery recovery stays in
the task.
- Map documented provider address conflicts to a field error. Preserve
actionable messages for other failures.
- Preserve non-secret draft fields across refresh, scoped to the
requested agent. Never save API keys in browser storage. Resume partial
inbox creation with the original agent, address, and request ID.
- Show an already-created address with explicit retry and new-address
recovery instead of locked inputs. Preserve the original inbox and
resumable draft when choosing another address. Distinguish runtime-key
404 errors and log safe provider status/operation/code.
- Apply final agent access once within email setup authorization for a
new account whose original installs are unchanged. Preserve later
permission edits and reused account installs. Support in-place retry of
progress loading.
- Let a failed inline setup change keys after retiring an empty draft.
Persist its replacement setup identity without storing secrets. Recover
a server-saved account when refresh interrupts the save response, while
preserving intentional account changes.
- Render the production setup in Storybook and add error, recovery, and
mobile states.
- Inset native select carets in shared CSS. Preserve custom icons,
listboxes, keyboard behavior, and forced-color controls.
- Add browser regression coverage and an AgentMail Product E2E case with
persisted-state and rendered-card evidence.

## Verification

- Full `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, `pnpm check:token-gates`, and
`git diff --check` passed after the default-availability change.
- All 485 focused tests passed. These cover setup, management, catalog
and route gates, connection intents, email authorization, Cursor
execution, and the OpenAPI contract. All 39 email integration tests run
with the experimental chat setting off.
- The shared polling change passed four behavioral tests, UI typecheck
and build, and token gates.
- `tests/e2e/agentmail.spec.ts` passed with the actual server setting
off. This full-stack browser test uses simulated provider responses. It
covers catalog entry, saved keys, editable address and domain controls,
creation, conflicts, retry, all management tabs, clipboard feedback, the
provider link, and task email rendering.
- In the live local browser, Add connection reached the editable email
step with the saved account key. The verified custom domain was selected
by default. Both domain choices worked. The existing inbox Settings page
remained available. Both active inboxes completed new mail checks with
the setting off. No new provider inbox or email message was created for
this pass.
- Earlier live provider acceptance covered creation on a verified custom
domain, Finish connecting on the reported draft, successful mail checks
after refresh, and catalog removal of disposable draft and active
connections. Clicking the email address copied the exact address and
showed Copied!. View inbox opened the same inbox in AgentMail’s console.
No email messages were sent.
- Production setup and Settings Storybook builds and interactions
passed. Settings states include active, paused, unassigned, revoked,
webhook, long-address, mobile, and reconnect. Receiving and
revoked-access stories had zero accessibility violations.
- Full local `pnpm test:run` on an earlier revision completed with
14,709 passing, 87 skipped, and four transient failures. All four failed
cases passed in focused reruns without product changes. That serial full
local command was not repeated after each follow-up. The latest-head
full CI suite is the final test gate.
- CI found an obsolete browser assertion that hid every channel when the
flag was off. Updated it to keep AgentMail and the Channels surface
visible while preserving the GitHub chat route gates. All 11 provider
browser tests passed locally after scoping the Channels selector to the
agent sidebar. Two initial local attempts stopped at temporary Postgres
initialization. The passing run used a separate disposable database on
the existing local Postgres server; it was removed after the test.
- Updated the remaining sidebar and aggregator discovery assertions for
default AgentMail availability. Ordinary task fixtures now return no
email thread. All 128 sidebar/task-page tests and all 42 aggregator
tests passed locally.
- Latest head `b42bb4cd5cc9f2d01a99ab8026832d5a956ea85f`: full CI
passed, with 54 successful checks including Snyk and two intentional
Storybook skips. The CI run is
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37020833647. A
fresh Greptile review scored 5/5 with no unresolved threads. Live model
evaluations and inbound/outbound email delivery were not run.

## Risks

- AgentMail no longer needs experimental opt-in. Setup still requires a
human to connect an account and assign an inbox. Inline setup creates an
inbox after a human submits a new or saved key. Company access, agent
access, inbox assignment, and completion checks remain enforced.
- AgentMail read APIs cannot prove global address availability. The
visible-list check is bounded to 100 entries and cannot see inboxes
outside the key’s scope. The UI reports this limitation, suggests
alternatives without claiming they are free, and keeps final creation
conflicts inline. Lookup outages show an error without preventing the
authoritative creation attempt.
- Native select CSS affects the whole app. Custom-icon selects and
multi-row lists are excluded. Forced-color mode keeps the browser caret.
- Saved-key discovery uses stored verified scope metadata and checks
authorized legacy credentials concurrently within a shared three-second
deadline. Provider outages mark legacy choices unavailable; users can
still enter another key. Final use rechecks authorization and provider
access.
- No database migration or transport default change. Live connection
remains the default.

DottaandPaperclip 018993140f feat: let agents name prompt-only tasks (#14761)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Users create tasks with a title and a description.
> - A required title adds work when the prompt already explains the
request.
> - An agent can name the task once it reads that request.
> - This pull request accepts prompt-only tasks and starts them with a
short prompt slice.
> - A scoped title tool lets the assigned agent replace that slice early
without changing execution state.
> - A live browser eval checks the real agent call, saved title, audit
entry, and preservation of user titles.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting: task creation, shared contracts, database, server, runner
tools, and board UI.

**Problem or motivation**

Users must currently write a title before they can submit a detailed
task prompt. The agent has enough context to write a useful title
itself.

**Proposed solution**

Make the title optional when a description is present. Save the first
120 characters of the normalized prompt as a provisional title. Ask the
assigned agent to call `set_task_title` early. Use an atomic
provisional-title guard to preserve titles supplied or edited by users.
Keep explicit titles supported.

Related: #14543 and #14556 concern empty-title submission. This change
intentionally enables that submission when a prompt is present, instead
of requiring a title.

## What Changed

- Add the `titleNeedsGeneration` field with an idempotent migration.
Keep existing titles unchanged.
- Add `PUT /api/issues/:id/title` and the native and legacy
`set_task_title` tool. Enforce company access, active-run ownership,
shared, bounded retry receipts across native/HTTP calls, and
transactional audit logging. Refresh external-object links after commit,
with the same feature gate and plugin detectors as ordinary title edits.
- Add early naming guidance in Standard, Ask, and Plan task context.
Preserve the description, status, and assignment.
- Allow prompt-only root and child task creation, plus draft restoration
in the New Task dialog. Keep user titles supported.
- Add an opt-in Product E2E suite for prompt-only Standard and Ask
tasks, plus an explicit-title control. It checks actual provider calls
within the first five tools, persisted state, audit attribution, and the
reloaded UI.
- Preserve a closed vocabulary of API key maintenance phrases in
declared prose while rejecting opaque credential suffixes. Add one
bounded naming retry after wording is rejected, without treating the
rejected call as a saved title.
- Repair the native cleanup receipt check exposed during full
verification: accept matching input digests, retain legacy input checks,
and reject conflicting receipts.

## Verification

- Live Product E2E on `f43478473800e3a46b85c5ee79677efdb15108e7`: **3/3
passed** with native Codex `gpt-5.4-mini`, first attempts only,
automatic retries disabled. Standard and Ask each saved “Rotate expired
API key” on their first tool call, with matching persisted state and a
single same-run audit entry. The explicit-title control retained its
user title with zero title writes. All three verified the reloaded
browser UI.
- Campaign: `local-2026-09-30T21-30-11-021Z`. Earlier failed campaigns
are retained separately; they exposed credential-prose handling and
prompted the naming recovery fix. No failed result was regraded or
deleted.
- Reproduce with `pnpm test:e2e:runner -- --id
task-titles.runner-codex-mini.local.prompt-title-standard --id
task-titles.runner-codex-mini.local.prompt-title-ask --id
task-titles.runner-codex-mini.local.preserve-explicit-title
--max-automatic-retries 0` and an authorized provider key.
- Full `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed on the latest commit.
The runner build used the configured external eval source tree.
- Product E2E unit suite: **61 files, 818 tests passed**; E2E typecheck
and UI token gates passed.
- Title API/native regressions cover prompt-only and explicit child
creation, user edits, ownership/company isolation, external reference
refresh, cross-surface retry replay, and the 64-key limit without
receipt eviction. All passed. Prompt-context coverage: **44 tests
passed**.
- Rust credential regressions: **35 tests passed**, including benign
maintenance qualifiers and opaque credential rejection in every declared
prose field. Catalog/report reconciliation: **28 tests passed**. Native
recovery: **560 tests passed**.
- Broad local `pnpm test:run`: **14,555 tests passed** in the general
server group; two suites failed to initialize embedded PostgreSQL and
the existing 40,000-file Git streaming stress test exceeded its
300-second macOS timeout. All three suites then passed in isolation (**5
tests passed**) without code or timeout changes. The original full local
command exited nonzero and is not being represented as a clean full run.
- Latest-head GitHub checks are green: **53 passed, 4 skipped, zero
failed or pending**, including all test shards and the canary packaging
dry run. Greptile reviewed the same commit at **5/5**, with zero
unresolved review threads.

## Risks

- The additive database field must reach the server and UI together. The
migration uses `IF NOT EXISTS` and defaults existing tasks to a final
title.
- Title generation depends on the assigned agent running. Tasks without
a run keep their provisional title.
- Live qualification covers the native Codex path in Standard and Ask
modes. API/legacy and Plan behavior have deterministic coverage.
- The credential-prose exception validates the entire suffix against a
closed maintenance vocabulary. Unknown suffixes, assignments, quoted
values, credential prefixes, and diagnostics retain strict checks.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with reasoning, tool use, and code
execution. The exact deployment ID and context window are not exposed in
this session. The live eval uses the native Codex `gpt-5.4-mini`
profile.

DottaandPaperclip cbd278dc03 fix(interactions): derive chat recipients and validate explicit users (#14742)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip helps people manage AI agents and their work.
> - Agents use saved questions to get human input and continue the same
task.
> - The standard question example recently told models to copy a user
ID.
> - A model can omit an identity prefix and create a question its
intended recipient cannot answer.
> - Agent Chat already knows the conversation owner, so the server can
supply that identity.
> - This pull request removes the blanket instruction and validates
explicit recipients before saving.
> - Ordinary questions stay simple, and explicit addressing remains
available for decisions that need a particular person.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14707, #14188. Related: #14238 handles legacy email recipients;
this change prevents invalid recipients in new cards and retains exact
ID matching.

**What happened?**

A model copied a Cloud user ID without its prefix into
`addresseeUserId`. Creation succeeded. The intended user's answer then
failed the exact recipient check.

**Expected behavior**

Ordinary chat questions use the saved conversation owner. A task may
optionally name a specific recipient. The API rejects an unknown or
unauthorized recipient before it creates a card.

**Steps to reproduce**

Create a chat question for a user whose ID is `paperclip-id:example`.
Supply `example` as the addressee. Before this change, creation accepts
the invalid recipient and the owner cannot answer. With this change,
creation returns 422. Omitting the field saves the full owner ID and
allows that owner to answer.

## What Changed

- Remove `addresseeUserId` from standard question examples and remove
the blanket requester-ID instruction.
- Derive the recipient of ordinary chat questions from the persisted
conversation owner. Reject conflicting explicit user IDs.
- Keep explicit task recipients optional. Validate supplied user IDs
with the existing board mutation policy, including company, viewer, and
Cloud restrictions.
- Preserve explicit agent routing, connector intents, confirmations,
exact recipient checks, idempotent retries, and no-login local-board
authority in local-trusted mode.
- Update the blocker grader to accept an omitted recipient and verify
the actual requester answered.
- Add database and HTTP tests for prefixed identities, denied
recipients, concurrent retries, saved answers, and response delivery.

## Verification

- Database interaction service suite: 90 tests passed, including
implicit local-board creation/answering and authenticated/Cloud denial.
- Interaction HTTP route suite: 84 tests passed.
- Affected interaction/native/connector/documentation suites: 231 tests
passed across six files after valid-user fixtures were updated.
- Resolver and interaction unit suites: 29 tests passed.
- Product E2E unit/calibration suite: 793 tests passed; Product E2E
typecheck and blocker catalog discovery passed.
- Generated API-reference and capability contract checks passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed.
- Full local `pnpm test:run` did not finish green: its initial
general-server pass had 14,416 passing assertions, one unrelated
native-resume assertion failure on macOS, and three teardowns from an
intermediate fixture cleanup fixed above. Separate broad local groups
also encountered timeout/live-port failures under host load. Local UI
(7,026), CLI (502), shared (817), and skills-catalog (20) tests passed;
the complete final-head CI matrix is the broad verification gate.
- After two CI cold-start readiness timeouts, a separate test-only
commit gives the first exposure lifecycle fixture the existing normal
30-second readiness budget. Its real HTTP, ordering, and cleanup
assertions remain intact; the targeted case and final Linux CI shard
passed. Production deadlines are unchanged.
- A separate OpenCode fixture failed twice on GitHub-hosted Ubuntu
because its cached Node executable was group-writable; the same case
passed on AWS runners. The fixture now qualifies its own Linux copy with
mode `0500` and the actual copy digest. Host files and production
security checks are unchanged. The focused macOS case passed; the new
Linux-copy branch also passed on the final AWS-hosted Linux runner
(1,125 passing Runner tests, 3 skipped). The final run was not on a
GitHub-hosted runner.
- Final-head [CI run
36762078176](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36762078176)
passed for `116b968b24fa0a8c5724a7bf96e73a8dda5f0425`: 54 successful
checks and two conditional Storybook skips, with no pending or failed
checks. The 27 general/serialized test jobs reported 28,635 passing
tests. Typecheck, build, Runner, browser E2E, and Canary gates passed.
Greptile reviewed that exact head at 5/5; both review threads are
resolved, with no open follow-ups.
- No live provider replay is claimed by this PR.

## Risks

- New explicitly addressed cards reject users who cannot mutate the
issue, including viewers, inactive members, and invalid IDs. Callers
that supplied invalid recipients must correct their request.
- Existing addressed cards are not rewritten. Existing authorization
checks remain strict.
- Chat inference applies only to questions without an agent addressee.
Connector intents and governed confirmations retain their own recipient
paths.
- No schema change or migration is required.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 (exact serving variant and context window are not
exposed in this environment). Used reasoning, tool use, code editing,
and test execution.

DottaandPaperclip b54b2dc35c fix: preserve warm Codex turns with incremental managed file checkpoints (#14735)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and keeps their instructions and files
durable.
> - Native Codex runners can keep a process alive between compatible
turns.
> - Managed file collection stopped that process after each turn, which
defeated warm reuse.
> - Agent folders can contain large images and other files, so full
copies on every turn are expensive.
> - This change keeps one managed directory for the live session and
saves only file changes after each turn.
> - Ownership, authorization, instruction changes, and process
retirement still control when reuse is safe.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #13710 introduced native warm session reuse. This fixes managed
file collection that still forced those sessions to stop. No duplicate
open PR or issue was found.

**What happened?**

With managed instructions and warm native Codex enabled, consecutive
turns reused a Daytona sandbox but started a new runner process each
time. The managed directory collector required process termination
before saving files.

**Expected behavior**

Compatible turns keep the same process and managed `AGENT_HOME`. Each
completed turn saves added, changed, and deleted files before the next
turn starts. Unchanged large files do not transfer again.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Use a native Codex agent with managed instructions and a reusable
Daytona environment.
2. Enable warm session reuse and run three turns on the same task.
3. Write a large binary on the first turn, edit a small note on each
turn, and delete a file on the second turn.
4. Compare process identity across turns and read the canonical files
through the public agent-files API.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on `d30b03bd8c17604cdab1533eeeeb087aba30e8b1`.

**Deployment mode**

Local server with remote Daytona execution; cloud native runner uses the
same path.

## What Changed

- Retain the managed directory only for the verified owner of a live
native Codex session.
- Checkpoint each completed turn before releasing the session for reuse.
Retry unstable captures, then stop and collect when a warm checkpoint
cannot be validated.
- Compare metadata and cached hashes, stream only changed file payloads,
record deletions, and validate path, content, quota, and authorization
before saving.
- Rotate sessions when canonical files, loaded instructions,
credentials, or launch policy change. Fence stale collection and cleanup
callbacks from later owners.
- Keep cleanup and recovery aware of the current session owner. Recheck
canonical files under the writer lock at handoff, attach the successor
collector before fallible bookkeeping, and emit one final save receipt
on checkpoint fallback. Preserve storage warnings across unchanged
checkpoints.
- Add regression coverage and a three-turn Daytona test with independent
public API file checks, an unchanged 8 MiB binary, deletion checks, and
strict process identity checks.
- Document checkpoint consistency, lifecycle behavior, and local run-log
counters.
- Replace a timing assumption in the Daytona teardown test with explicit
transfer-arrival gates after CI exposed an unset release callback.

## Verification

- Full local `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed. Server checks
were repeated after the final storage-warning fix.
- Runner E2E typecheck and 749 runner E2E unit tests passed.
- Focused file checkpoint, directory ownership, instruction collection,
native session, and merge tests passed. After review fixes, the
managed-directory and native-session suites passed 550 tests, including
intervening canonical edits, same-run fresh restore, failed handoff
collection, and one-call fallback collection. Server typecheck passed
again. The Daytona plugin suite passed 218 tests. The quota-warning
regression failed before the fix and passed afterward.
- Three real Daytona campaigns passed before the final handoff review
fixes. The latest kept PID 547 across all three turns. The first
checkpoint copied 8,388,635 bytes; the next two copied 36 and 54 bytes.
Public API reads verified the binary, note contents, and deletion after
every turn. Test cleanup deleted the sandbox.
- The final head was also deployed to an isolated cloud staging instance
and passed three UI-triggered native Codex turns with managed
instructions. All three retained the same process ID/start time, native
session, provider session, runner instance, and Daytona sandbox.
Checkpoints copied 8,388,643 bytes on turn 1, then only 52 and 78 bytes
on turns 2 and 3; those warm captures also hashed only 52 and 78 bytes.
Independent canonical API reads verified every byte of the unchanged 8
MiB binary and the exact note contents after every turn; the deleted
file returned 404 after turns 2 and 3. After restoring the original
lifecycle and agent-auth configuration, removing the temporary secret,
pausing the test agent, and deleting both test sandboxes, independent
canonical API reads still verified the entire binary, the final 78-byte
three-line note, and the deletion. The native runner flag remained
enabled and the final serving revision remained the PR head.
- Two earlier staging attempts are preserved as failures and are
excluded from the acceptance result: a saved ChatGPT login failed with a
provider routing 401, and its subsequent stopped-sandbox retry failed
before provider startup with a closed-lease admission error. The
successful campaign used a fresh sandbox and a temporary encrypted
API-key binding. The stopped-lease retry remains unexplained; this
campaign does not establish recovery of that failed sandbox.
- All [Paperclip CI
gates](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36750397355)
pass on `26ef2ef56a389259246809805c0b34a4747eb86b`, including full test
partitions, build, typecheck, runner verification, E2E shards, and the
Canary clean public-npm install. Greptile reviewed that exact head at
5/5 with no unresolved review threads or outstanding findings.
- Full local repository coverage used the existing CI partitions, but
the 40,000-file Git streaming stress test timed out and its local retry
was interrupted by macOS thermal emergency sleep; this is not a green
full local suite claim. The exact stress test passed on the final head
in [CI server shard
2/12](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36750397355/job/110008294290),
in 111.9 seconds.
- Repeat the live test with configured credentials and a Linux runner
artifact: `pnpm test:e2e:runner -- --id
daytona-warm-continuity.runner-codex.daytona.warm-three-turn`.

## Risks

- This is a file-level checkpoint, not an atomic snapshot of the whole
folder. Background writes after a capture are saved by the next
checkpoint or final stopped collection.
- Metadata scans still visit all paths. Modified files transfer in full;
unchanged files do not rehash or transfer.
- Incorrect ownership or reuse could collect the wrong directory. Run
ownership fences, current authorization, stable capture validation, and
stopped collection fallbacks are covered by tests.
- Warm reuse remains opt-in. No database migration or fleet default
changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, code editing, tool use, and
test execution. The exact serving model ID and context-window size are
not exposed by this session.

DottaandPaperclip 3c561642b4 fix(chat): resolve approvals and preserve unanswered questions (#14613)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents ask for decisions and optional details through cards in chat.
> - A clear approval in a message can leave the matching card pending.
> - An unanswered question can also block an unrelated later reply.
> - Decisions need a saved source message, while optional questions need
to remain answerable in history.
> - This pull request records conversational decisions and lets users
move on from questions and answer them later.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Native Claude and Codex could act on approval in chat while the original
approval card stayed pending. Pending question forms stayed above the
composer, were absent from history, and could suppress later chat
replies. A late native question answer could wait for a finished run to
reconnect.

**Expected behavior**

The active agent records a clear approval or refusal against the exact
card and user message. Ambiguous replies do not grant consent. Users can
send another message without answering a question. The question remains
pending in history and can be reopened and answered later. The saved
answer reaches the agent.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Ask an agent to propose work with a confirmation card, then approve
it in chat.
2. Check that the original card records that approval before work
starts.
3. Ask an interactive question, send an unrelated message, and reload.
4. Open the unanswered question from history and submit an answer.

Related work: #14408 added completion delivery. #14607 tests completion
reporting turns. Neither records conversational answers on approval
cards.

## What Changed

- Add a confirmation endpoint backed by a user comment, with schema
validation, OpenAPI discovery, and native Plan-mode access. Ask mode
remains read-only.
- Check company, active run, actor, current session, message provenance,
revision, and resolver policy. Save the decision and audit in one
transaction. Retries do not repeat effects. Emit resolution telemetry
after commit.
- Give fresh and resumed chat turns the actual pending confirmation
identities. Teach agents to save clear conversational decisions before
acting and to clarify ambiguity.
- Keep unanswered Agent Chat questions as compact history entries. A
newer user message closes the old form. Question cards never contribute
to composer pending counts or navigation, including after dismissing a
fresh form. The history card is the sole reminder; clicking it restores
that exact form and draft.
- Preserve Agent Chat questions when later messages or questions arrive.
Historical ordinary inputs no longer gate later chat replies.
Current-run requests, task execution, and governed approvals keep their
gates. Remove the special acknowledgement-publication proof helpers that
this rule replaces.
- Route answers to finished native runs through durable fresh-wake
delivery, with existing idempotency and source-question context. Settle
late replies against contiguous completed conversation turns and freeze
their history replay; failed, unhandled, and newly arriving messages
remain actionable.
- Add real-component Storybook scenarios, database and UI regressions,
and a three-turn native Claude/Codex E2E case. Capture distinct,
UI-ready screenshots and report the individual assertions.

## Verification

- Focused decision/publication/UI regressions after merging master: 288
passed; subsequent UI draft, failed-send, and conversation checks: 199
passed.
- Native question and durable delivery regressions: 106 passed,
including all four terminal run states and exactly-once late delivery.
Seven targeted regressions fail against the original implementation and
pass with the fix.
- Latest conversation/decision/native-delivery regressions after the
master merge: 121 passed. Covers completed progress, missing or failed
intervening turns, new messages during a late reply, stale sessions, and
frozen retry/replay boundaries. Four new assertions fail before the
ordering fix.
- E2E support suite after the master merge: 792 passed. Negative
controls reject expired cards, wrong questions/answers, stale or missing
replies, unrelated clarification forms, and unexpected tasks.
- The embedded-browser walkthrough caught one additional defect:
dismissing a fresh question still showed a composer badge. Both Cancel
and close-button regressions failed before the fix. The fix at
`65f2ade12` passes 170 chat-thread tests and 792 E2E support tests.
After merging master, 232 chat-thread/confirmation tests, server/UI
typechecks, and token gates pass. The preview and two-provider live E2E
pass at `e5512a206`; Greptile is 5/5 with zero unresolved threads at
that commit. All 55 checks are now successful at `e5512a206` (four
conditional checks skipped), including the aggregate verification gate
and clean-install canary test. The first attempt was interrupted by
simultaneous CI worker shutdowns; one failed-job rerun passed without
code changes.
- [Published
Storybook](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/storybook/branches/codex~2Fchat-approval-resolution/?path=/story/chat-comments-agent-chat-unanswered-questions--moved-on):
nine real-component scenarios. Manually exercised move on, reopen,
preserve draft, answer later, answer one of multiple questions, and a
custom mobile answer in the embedded browser. Retested fresh Cancel and
close-button dismissal in the updated build, then reopened and submitted
the preserved Green selection and inspected its answered receipt. Static
preview has no live model/backend; its callbacks are fixture responses.
- [First live
campaign](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-36714504406-1/)
reproduced the late-answer completion-state defect on both providers
despite correct saved answers and acknowledgements. It also exposed a
valid imperative clarification rejected by the old oracle. Both issues
are fixed with regression controls; this failing run is retained as
evidence.
- [Four-cell
qualification](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-36717804064-1/)
passed 4/4 at `2bf8a1009`: unanswered-question return and ambiguous
confirmation, each on native Claude and Codex. Inspected saved state,
source-message decisions, visible cards, and agent replies. Both
late-answer chats settled to waiting; no unrequested tasks were created.
[Final branch
rerun](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-36719666238-1/)
passed 2/2 at `142630720`: the same unanswered-question journey after
merging master, plus an additional screenshot and browser assertion for
the actual late-answer acknowledgement.
- [Composer-reminder
E2E](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-36727006818-1/)
passed 2/2 at `5b62c52d9`: native Claude and Codex, three turns each,
with explicit no-badge assertions before and after reload. Inspected
saved pending/answered state, both screenshots with a clear composer,
and actual Blue acknowledgements; all five behavioral matchers passed
per provider and neither created tasks. Cost coverage is partial; this
is bounded workflow qualification.
- [Fresh-dismissal
E2E](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-36742773318-1/)
passed 2/2 at `e5512a206`: native Claude and Codex, including fresh
Cancel, clear composer, reopen, unrelated message, reload, late Blue
answer, and actual agent acknowledgement. All five behavioral matchers
pass per provider. Inspected the fresh-dismissal screenshots and saved
pending/answered identity; neither created tasks. Cost coverage is
partial (4/6 runs).
- Prior evidence remains available in [the earlier
campaign](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-36642252725-1/).
Its early loading screenshot and overwritten final capture prompted the
UI-ready, distinct screenshot fixes.

## Risks

- The model interprets intent. The server verifies permission and
provenance; it does not infer consent from text. Ambiguous and unrelated
replies are not approvals.
- Historical questions can accumulate. They remain visible, pending, and
answerable; no automatic answer or expiry is invented.
- The change to completion gates is scoped to Agent Chat and ordinary
historical inputs. Current-turn and governed approvals retain their
existing controls.
- Live qualification is limited to the selected stories. Broader native
onboarding finalization remains separate work.
- No database migration. Telemetry adds no fields or values; the
contract and README document the commit boundary. Privacy review was
requested on the PR.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and browser-test orchestration. The exact model ID and
context-window size are not exposed to this session.

DottaandPaperclip d30b03bd8c test: add persistent E2E coverage for human blocker decisions (#14707)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages work for AI agents.
> - Agents use the coordination skill when work needs human authority or
a scope decision.
> - PR #14188 replaced automatic manager escalation with direct blocker
handling.
> - This behavior needs real browser, server, database, and provider
tests.
> - The test must verify saved human input, task ownership, and resumed
work.
> - This pull request adds six reusable Product E2E cases and improves
the skill examples that they exercise.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14188.

The merged change needs repeatable behavior coverage. The new suite
tests missing administrator access, missing hiring permission, and
requester scope questions. Searches found no duplicate blocker-guidance
suite. This extends the existing eval system described in ROADMAP.md.

## What Changed

- Add the explicit-only `blocker-guidance` Product E2E suite. It has
three local scenarios on legacy Codex and legacy Claude.
- Use the production UI and public APIs to create work, save a
human-only question or confirmation, answer it after reload, and resume
the same task.
- Check requester identity, ownership history, manager activity, hiring,
saved answers, and completion. Keep direct text input as a separate UX
result.
- Save pending and final screenshots, API checkpoints, skill hashes,
provider evidence, and billing data through the existing report
pipeline.
- Isolate the Claude fixture home. Verify the served skill bytes before
dispatch so an old installed skill cannot silently replace the evaluated
skill.
- Improve the coordination and hiring skill examples. Include the
human-only policy, requester address, wake behavior, and handling of
authorized scope changes.
- Grader v5 requires the exact approved public welcome note as a new
worker comment. Browser input checks reject unwritable scope cards
before clicking, and confirmation direction must be saved in the
resolution before the worker wakes.
- Add grader calibration and browser-input tests. Update the fixture
guide and generated capability inventories.

## Verification

- `pnpm build`: passed after rebasing onto current master.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck`: passed.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:unit`: 742 tests passed.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:browser-support blocker-input.spec.ts`: 10 tests
passed.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner -- --list --suite blocker-guidance`: six cells
found.
- Capability inventory and generated-contract checks: passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/hiring-operational-examples.test.ts`: four tests
passed after synchronizing the generated API reference and section
anchor.
- Full general and serialized test suites: passed in CI on
`6652cee74517039676bad6a720f213625d265acd`. The redundant local `pnpm
test:run` was interrupted after complete CI coverage passed; it is not
claimed as a completed local full-suite run.
- Final GitHub checks: 54 passed, two optional Storybook checks skipped.
The runtime-exposure startup test hit a 10-second readiness timeout
once, passed a targeted local reproduction, and its CI shard passed the
single retry without code changes.
- Current-head Greptile: 5/5, clean check, zero unresolved threads.
- Historical live measurement on September 29 at
`4edc77ae2b95b10dd61426ce3f042bac00527ad9`: three independent six-cell
runs scored 5/6, 6/6, and 6/6. Claude Sonnet 4.6 passed 9/9. Codex
`gpt-5.6-sol` passed 8/9. These runs predate this rebase.
- Version 5 changes the scope answer to an exact approved publication
draft. The historical runs do not qualify that new requirement; the
two-provider scope pilot at `49a1f4eab369948b9e3b34a6ce436489e875e4ec`
passed Codex and failed Claude. Claude posted the correct salary-free
sentence but omitted its required reference line from that comment,
placing the reference in a separate completion message. The
`public-welcome-note` check correctly failed. An earlier Claude
database-startup failure was retained separately; its fresh-instance
retry reached the model. This pilot is not a six-cell qualification.
- The failed Codex scope case omitted `addresseeUserId`. The strict
routing check remains. All 18 attempts had clean evidence manifests and
passed cleanup.
- To repeat with provider credentials: `pnpm test:e2e:runner -- --suite
blocker-guidance --max-parallel 1`. This is a paid, opt-in suite and is
excluded from `--all`.

## Risks

- The live suite measures variable model behavior. The retained 17/18
historical result and the current 1/2 scope pilot are not all-pass
qualifications. These paid cases are opt-in; their observed model
failures remain visible independently of deterministic CI checks.
- A separate generic task-replacement diagnostic still exposed a Claude
refusal. The ordinary cases use specific business decisions. The
diagnostic is not a standalone catalog case in this change.
- Earlier measurements included an old installed Claude skill and test
defects. Their grades remain retained and are not combined with the
three final repetitions.
- Skill examples can affect when agents ask for human input. Downstream
permission checks still apply.
- Native runners, Daytona, agent-requester routing, and real external
connection authorization are outside this suite.
- Raw provider traces and credentials remain private. No screenshots,
raw reports, secrets, workflow changes, or lockfile changes are
committed.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex assisted with this change. The exact deployed
variant and context window size are not exposed in this session. The
assistant used reasoning, repository edits, tool use, and shell
execution. The evaluated models were `gpt-5.6-sol` and
`claude-sonnet-4-6`.

DottaandPaperclip fc36d1ccd3 test(e2e): qualify large Daytona Git workspace continuation (#14316)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A task can keep one agent process and workspace across human review
turns.
> - Large workspaces must survive each transfer between Daytona and the
host.
> - Small fixtures do not cross the previous 32 MiB filename-output
limit.
> - Correct files alone do not prove that finalization and recovery have
settled.
> - This pull request adds an explicit three-turn test with 60,000 files
and independent host checks.
> - The test detects lost files, replaced processes, and stale
finalization retries.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #14253, #14314, #14315, #14402, #14420.

This test covers the workspace Git streaming fix in #14253 and the
Daytona archive validation and native finalization fixes consolidated
from #14315 and #14314 into #14402. These runtime changes are merged
into master. This PR adds regression coverage.

## What Changed

- Add one explicit-only native Codex Daytona test. Broad matrix runs do
not select it.
- Create 60,000 small untracked files through ordinary provider
execution. Independently check all host file contents and the
39,828,890-byte filename manifest after each turn. Each continuation
changes all generated file contents, so stale host copies fail.
- Check spaces, newlines, leading hyphens, Unicode, and glob characters
in filenames.
- Require committed native finalization, successful workspace receipts,
no active transfer or runless cleanup, and no scheduled recovery before
each continuation and after the final turn.
- Use a fixed external instruction bundle so the same runner PID and
process identity can continue across the three browser-driven turns.
Managed agent folders intentionally stop the process for file collection
after #14420. Set the 20-minute idle window on the environment, then
verify the admitted policy on every run. Set a 25-minute Daytona
auto-stop window for this large-file test.
- Save public workspace-operation evidence when an E2E attempt fails.
- Bound this large-file fixture to 15 minutes per turn and 50 minutes
total, reserving five minutes outside the turns for setup, host
verification, and cleanup. A measured CI continuation succeeded in 11
minutes 5 seconds, exceeding the ordinary warm fixture's 10-minute
deadline. The ordinary fixture and all file, process, finalization, and
cleanup assertions remain unchanged.

## Verification

- Final PR head: `b7eed5517426507f5d7912edb8ae49163d1783b0`.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:unit` — 56 files and 708 tests passed locally.
The catalog retains all 407 existing cells and adds this one
explicit-only cell.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck` — passed locally.
- [Final-head
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36640920233) —
all gates passed, including repository typechecks, tests, build, browser
suites, and canary dry run. The PR has 54 successful checks and two
expected skips. Fresh Greptile reviewed all seven files at 5/5; all
review threads are resolved.
- [Live single-cell Daytona
verification](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36637283902)
— passed on the first attempt in 1,822,299 ms (30m 22s) on `227074b7b`,
using native Codex `gpt-5.6-sol` and the verified Daytona image. All
three turns independently verified every one of the 60,000 file
contents, 39,828,890 filename bytes, and five unusual names. All runs
committed with one stable runner PID/process fingerprint,
native/provider sessions, runner instance, and sandbox. Final
browser/download assertions, all nine matchers, explicit cleanup, and
report publication passed. Results are published through the [Product
E2E history](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/) and
[eval hub](https://pages.paperclip.ing/evals/).
- The final `b7eed5517` follow-up only extends the total allowance from
45 to 50 minutes, updates its catalog assertion/version, and documents
the setup/cleanup margin. Per-turn limits and behavioral assertions are
unchanged from the successful live run; that paid run was not repeated
for this allowance-only follow-up.
- The [first integrated-head live
attempt](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36632127364)
is retained: turn 1 passed, then turn 2 hit the old 10-minute deadline
while finalizing. Its trace records successful completion after 11m 5s
and successful cleanup. Process diagnostics also showed the intentional
managed agent-folder stop boundary introduced in #14420. These
observations motivated the larger turn budget and fixed external
instructions.
- The broad local `pnpm test:run` began alongside the build and
encountered server setup and port-test failures. The affected setup
suites and assertions passed on focused reruns after the build, using
canonical macOS temporary paths where needed. The redundant broad local
run was stopped; full-suite success is established by final-head CI, not
by that local run.

## Risks

- The live test makes provider calls and creates a billable Daytona
sandbox. It runs only when explicitly selected and deletes its sandbox
during cleanup.
- The test creates 60,000 files and can take several minutes per
transfer. Its longer retention window applies only to this fixture.
- The test will fail on a runtime that does not include all three
required fixes.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 in Codex assisted with code, terminal tools, and test
analysis. The exact serving model suffix and context-window size were
not exposed to this task.

DottaandFry 3ca196b0a6 feat(agents): persist agent files across tasks without revision history (#14420)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - An agent needs personal files across tasks and sessions.
> - AGENTS.md is one file in that directory. Supporting files need the
same persistence.
> - The Instructions Editor and agent runs must share one current
directory.
> - Concurrent runs should apply only the files they change. The last
sync of the same file wins.
> - This pull request uses existing file transport and removes temporary
copies after sync.
> - Old instruction-only sessions keep their restore contract. New saves
do not create revision history.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14325. This replaces its revision-oriented design with persistent
agent files. Keep #14325 unmerged.

Transport prerequisite #14416 merged first at
`d172197117a14b80a1eb2d2835a0e7cce2679656`. This PR now targets master
and remains below 100 changed files.

Related work: #4513 and #8798 cover instruction tooling. This change
handles run synchronization, cross-task personal files, browser editing,
and old-session restoration.

## What Changed

- Keep one current directory per company and agent. Point AGENT_HOME at
a temporary working copy for each active run. Keep task files and
provider HOME separate.
- Restore text, binary files, and nested folders through workspace
transport. Exclude remote agent files from task Git snapshots with a
self-ignoring file inside the reserved runtime directory; never write
through repository-controlled Git metadata.
- Collect after the provider and child processes have stopped. Keep
resumable conversation state.
- Apply changed and deleted files under the agent lock. The last sync
wins for the same file. Unrelated concurrent changes survive.
- Remove temporary copies after successful sync, rejected sync, and
staging failure. Register ownership before copying so restart recovery
can remove interrupted preparation. Retry transient synchronization up
to three times. Preserve the original remote lease reference until
deletion succeeds; restart cleanup never acquires a replacement sandbox.
Do not create captured directories or a conflict-review queue for new
runs.
- Keep browser editing, stale-draft protection, and streaming binary
downloads. Keep the instruction entry and text editor limited to 1 MiB.
- Keep historical agent-folder sync failures on their affected runs
instead of repeating them above current saved instructions. Preserve
legacy candidate review and current browser-save errors. Avoid duplicate
quota warnings while retaining separate sync failures when they describe
a different problem.
- Require target-scoped caller grants for peer instruction access, while
preserving self edits, responsible-user checks, and protected-change
consent.
- Treat full storage as a nonblocking run warning, never an agent pause
or run-admission failure. Restore already-over-quota saved folders so
ordinary agent cleanup can recover; warn on each run until cleanup. The
run detail view shows the warning.
- Allow 256 MiB per file, 2 GiB per directory, and 100,000 entries. Hash
large files as streams. Check editor-save quotas with metadata instead
of hashing unrelated files.
- Preserve old native inputs, instruction-only copies, paths, digests,
and pending legacy candidates. Adopt old revision heads once. New writes
do not append history rows.
- Add idempotent migration 0287 and verify upgrades from the preview
tables and receipts.
- Add nine interactive stories under **Agents / Persistent files**,
including automatic incoming edits, stale browser drafts, and
storage-limit diagnostics.

- Merge candidate: `4f5390107ec6ffd80a76d1d2e85530e66f21d079`, after
merging current master and the landed transport prerequisite.
Integration required no manual conflict resolution; the feature remains
99 changed files. Full workspace typecheck, production build, token
gates, and 715 focused tests passed on this merge candidate. Fresh
Greptile review is 5/5 with no unresolved findings. All 55 checks
passed, with four conditional skips, including the build, typecheck,
browser E2E, and canary dry run. A single retry recovered four jobs
interrupted by runner shutdowns; no source changes were required.
- Historical-warning UI fix: all 6,834 UI tests across 640 files passed,
including regression coverage for three old failures, legacy preserved
edits, and warnings scoped to the affected run. Full workspace
typecheck, production build, Storybook build, and token gates passed.
Browser-verified Storybook playtests passed for Historical Failures
After Successful Save, Storage Limit, and Full Storage Run Warning.
- Review follow-ups at `4e20c9fb2`: all 18 focused tests passed,
including external Git directories, linked worktrees, symlinks,
hardlinks, and distinct I/O failures alongside storage warnings. Server
and UI typechecks, token gates, and the production build passed.
- Storage warning regressions at `0724f3012`: all 33 directory tests and
all five heartbeat-list tests passed, with no skips in their successful
runs. They cover repeated runs while full, an already-over-quota saved
folder, cleanup, warnings retained after unrelated save failures, and
bounded warnings in large result JSON. Server typecheck passed after the
final warning fixes.
- Full workspace typecheck, production build, and token gates passed
during this follow-up. Product E2E harness: 631 tests passed across 52
files; harness typecheck passed. Earlier native session/context and
directory/legacy collection suites passed 537 tests; Runner
unit/transport suites passed 329 tests.
- **Real E2E at `0724f3012` (before this follow-up):** legacy local
Codex and native Daytona Codex each passed six tasks, one server
restart, seven independent assertions, and cleanup verification. Both
prove browser-to-agent edits, agent-to-browser edits, nested/binary
restoration, per-file last-sync-wins, a successful run after an
oversized save rejection, and cleanup clearing the warning.
- Native local Codex also passed the six-task quota flow before the
final warning-retention fixes. That pass began at `918d1ed02` while the
bounded-result warning fix was being edited, so it is not claimed as
exact-final-head evidence. Its final-head rerun failed during embedded
PostgreSQL bootstrap before any provider run: the macOS host had 87,365
of 87,381 SysV semaphores occupied. No unrelated services or kernel
limits were changed.
- The final-source report intentionally records **2/3 cells passed**,
preserving the blocked native-local attempt:
`tests/runner-e2e/results/agent-files-quota-final-20260928-report/`.
Earlier failed attempts and provenance notes remain under
`tests/runner-e2e/results/agent-files-quota-final-20260928-input/` and
the original campaign directories.
- Daytona used immutable image
`ghcr.io/paperclipai/paperclip-daytona-runner@sha256:5643f0d801417cae3581833a1a3bc6715b325e028602738d2652c44cac5dc6bf`
and its exact Linux runner binary. Controller source is `0724f3012`;
image source is recorded separately.
- Legacy-session compatibility and all three ACP Stop/resume browser
regressions passed on the prior validated feature head
`169fab46d5af21caa2269b4c1b29b69c933a6951`. They assert the same
provider session is retained and interrupted writes are not replayed.
Migration upgrade tests also passed earlier.
- Nine interactive stories are under **Agents / Persistent files**,
including **Full Storage Run Warning**. Its playtest and visual browser
inspection passed; the warning states that runs continue and the editor
remains available.
- Prior-head checks on `4e20c9fb2`: 55 passed, two conditional jobs
skipped, no failures or pending checks. All eight browser E2E shards and
their aggregate passed. Fresh Greptile review is 5/5 with no findings;
all review threads are resolved, the security scan passed, and GitHub
reports no merge conflicts.
- The broad local follow-up test run was interrupted after host
semaphore exhaustion affected isolated PostgreSQL instances. It also
encountered the existing macOS long-path fixture failure and two timeout
failures. This is not a claim that the full local suite passed. Logs are
retained; focused storage/warning tests passed.

## Risks

- A later sync can overwrite an earlier edit to the same file, including
a saved browser edit. There is no text merge or retained version. This
is the intended last-sync-wins policy.
- A save that exceeds a storage limit is rejected and its temporary copy
is discarded. The run itself continues normally, and later runs restore
the last saved files with a warning until cleanup. Transient sync
failures get bounded retries. An I/O failure partway through a sync can
leave some files updated; a failed receipt does not claim whole-folder
success.
- Larger folders increase copy time, network traffic, and temporary disk
usage. Active runs still need working copies. Terminal runs do not
accumulate archives. Operators must provision disk for agents and
configured concurrency; these limits are not company-wide quotas.
- A restored old native session remains instruction-only until a fresh
session starts. Its original conflict fence and existing pending
candidates remain compatible.
- Provider processes close at the collection boundary. Conversation
resume remains available, but warm process reuse is lost.
- Backups must include the instance filesystem and database. External
bundles keep their existing behavior until explicitly moved to managed
storage.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family. The session does not expose a more specific
model ID or context-window size. Reasoning, code execution, and browser
tools assisted this change. Real provider E2E uses `gpt-5.6-sol`.

0be2afcca6 feat(ui): improve task composer controls and pending input (#14322)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets operators assign tasks to AI agents and review their
work.
> - The task composer controls the next message and its assigned agent.
> - Operators needed a way to choose that agent's model and effort
without leaving the composer.
> - The old mode selector, upload button, and input cards made the
mobile composer crowded and hid normal messaging during a pending
decision.
> - Harnesses publish different model and effort capabilities, so the
picker must follow the selected agent.
> - This pull request adds one responsive composer flow, keeps pending
cards visible above it, and protects Codex ACP authentication in the
local test path.
> - Operators can choose run settings, send a message, and answer a
pending card as separate actions.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Task composer UI, issue thread interactions, Codex ACP credential
handling, and Storybook.

**Problem or motivation**

The composer did not expose model or effort for the selected agent.
Mobile actions wrapped poorly. Pending questions and confirmations
replaced the composer. A local Codex ACP test could also reuse host
authentication after the managed key was removed.

**Proposed solution**

Put assignee search, model search, exact model IDs, effort, and fast
mode in one picker. Use a mobile dialog. Replace the direct-upload plus
action and separate mode selector with an Add menu and removable Plan or
Ask chips. Place pending interaction cards above the usable composer.
Keep these cards pending after an ordinary message unless their creator
asks for comment superseding. Replace managed ACP auth files atomically
and isolate the test key from host credentials.

**Roadmap alignment**

ROADMAP.md does not list an overlapping composer milestone. This change
improves the existing task and review flows.

## What Changed

- Added the combined assignee, model, and effort picker to both task
composers. Search matches agent name, role, and harness. The server uses
a curated Codex list by default and honors instance-declared models.
Manual IDs remain available.
- Added an effort slider for known model capabilities, a conditional
Codex fast control, and reset. The picker opens in a modal on mobile.
- Added the Add menu for files, supported goals, Plan mode, and Ask
mode. Plan and Ask are exclusive removable chips. Keyboard mode cycling
remains available.
- Adjusted mobile spacing, avatars, wrapping, and Send placement.
Removed the composer divider.
- Moved pending question, confirmation, review, and related cards above
the composer. Ordinary comments now leave question and confirmation
cards pending by default. The onboarding prompt retains explicit comment
superseding.
- Updated the Storybook composer group with responsive states and the
production picker. Added UI, service, route, and browser regression
coverage.
- Isolated Codex ACP API-key authentication, skipped subscription auth
merge and shared-home copy-back for remote API-key runs, and replaced
the managed auth file atomically.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck` — passed on the final local head.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — passed on the final local head.
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/adapter-models.test.ts
ui/src/components/task-chat/ComposerRunSettingsPicker.test.tsx` — 31
tests passed, including role and harness search, declared Codex models,
and filtering general OpenAI models.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interactions-service.test.ts` — 74
tests passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/adapters/codex-local/src/server/acp.test.ts` — 42 tests passed,
including remote API-key copy-back isolation.
- `pnpm test:run` — attempted locally; the embedded PostgreSQL test
database could not initialize on macOS. The isolated
`heartbeat-run-event-sequencing` suite reproduced that environment
failure. GitHub CI runs the full test matrix for this head.
- `pnpm build` — passed on the final head. `pnpm build-storybook` passed
after the last UI change; only server code, tests, and docs changed
afterward.
- Live local test drive — Codex ACP ran a task with a managed API key.
The test agent was restored to its default ACP configuration afterward.
- Review the interactive stories under the top-level Composer group with
`pnpm storybook`. Check a narrow desktop width and mobile Plan, Ask,
picker, and pending-question states.

## Risks

- A pending card stays open when an ordinary comment changes the
discussion. Its creator can set `supersedeOnUserComment: true` when a
new comment should replace it.
- Model and effort overrides persist on the task until reset or changed.
An unlisted manual model ID may fail when the provider runs it.
- Some harness catalogs do not report effort support. The picker hides
effort for those models.
- No database migration is required.

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

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 via Codex. This runtime does not expose the exact model ID
or context window to the task. The model used code execution and browser
tools.

DottaandPaperclip 18e8c121d9 fix(runner): include Grok support in public installs with sandbox prerequisites (#14024)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents through a shared native runner.
> - Built-in harness support should ship with Paperclip's public
distribution.
> - Grok already speaks ACP; it does not require a new public bridge
package.
> - Sandbox provisioning owns the native executable and its pinned
version.
> - The runner must verify that prerequisite without downloading it
during npm installation.
> - This change separates built-in launcher identity from external
runtime identity.
> - Clean npm installation and live staging checks verify the
distribution boundary.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13882, #13973, #13977, #13979.

This follow-up now targets master after #13882 was squash-merged. It
replaces the private `@paperclipai/grok-acp` workspace package with
runner-owned assets. Current master is included so the branch also
contains the merged scheduler, complete-event capture, and durable
cleanup fixes.

## What Changed

- Ship Grok launcher and qualification metadata inside the runner's
compiled output and the public server's vendored runner tree.
- Remove the separate Grok npm package and all package-manager install
hooks for this runtime.
- Require the checksum-verified Grok Build 1.0.13 binary at
`/opt/paperclip/providers/grok/1.0.13/grok` in the selected execution
environment. Provision it explicitly in the Daytona image and CI setup.
- Keep native binaries outside the provider pack. Bind the built-in
launcher into the pack manifest.
- Preserve executable leases, descriptor-backed startup, credential
fences, permissions, and exact ACP model admission.
- Use `builtin:grok-acp` and `native:grok` as profile identities.
Historical package-profile sessions fail closed on resume rather than
being silently reinterpreted.
- Resolve built-in assets from the authenticated sidecar location,
including public server npm layouts. Keep the controller path out of
provider environments.
- Add clean npm tarball installation verification to the existing
trusted canary CI job and the admitted manual EC2 verification path. It
stages a unified release version and runs npm lifecycle scripts, then
verifies missing-prerequisite rejection and admission after separate
provisioning without credentials or inference.
- Include the controller-owned provider pack in stamped Cloud images.
Unstamped local images omit the pack and remain usable; remote ACPX
requires full source provenance.
- Correct CLI approval-page metadata for an already authenticated Cloud
board user; approval authorization remains unchanged.
- Honor explicit native-runner enablement in the Cloud agent picker and
direct setup page, keeping the flag disabled by default.
- Allow selecting the execution environment before connecting
credentials. Include Grok in the existing authenticated hello-probe
flow, targeting its pinned native prerequisite for runner setup.
- Recover an existing subscription sign-in conflict through an explicit
cancel-and-retry action, serialized after cancellation succeeds.
- Preserve the selected ACPX harness before normalizing config fields,
so new Grok agents use the Grok default model.
- Keep the credential-free Cloud provider pack root-owned and readable
after runtime UID remapping; verify manifest and referenced asset access
under an unrelated unprivileged UID during image builds.
- Archive prior failover backups alongside explicitly replaced harness
state, preserving evidence while preventing stale backups from blocking
a fresh replacement.
- Update Daytona image content inputs and contract tests for the
built-in assets and explicit provisioner.
- Document and regression-test the shared `approve-all` default for Grok
setup, saved configuration, and native execution. Explicitly saved
restrictions remain unchanged.

## Verification

Current merge-repair head `df09eb3e1a619430ad8419a0ee9aedd486689b05`
incorporates master `f1a394bd30cb56fb9e479f98b9f50176fe921858` after the
base PR was squash-merged. All 12 conflicts came from incoming files
identical to the tested pre-squash base. The final tree exactly matches
a three-way merge using that original base, preserving built-in Grok
distribution and removal of the obsolete private package. All 252
focused runner/UI tests, six npm-isolation tests, and token gates pass.
Fresh exact-head Greptile review is 5/5 with no outstanding findings;
security scans and EC2 native compilation pass. All current-head CI is
green: 56 successful checks/statuses and four intentional skips ([run
36468768035](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36468768035)).
The repository owner explicitly authorized bypassing code-owner approval
after all checks passed; no CI checks or repository protection settings
are bypassed or changed. The only remaining PR was removed from the
completed stack metadata to permit native auto-merge.

Earlier integration head `78cb306ecc41b5c96577c26c1d89153b0ef865a1`
includes master `3447609d2247e75e55d91493dda91a608364f672` (2026-09-28).
Two master advances during verification overlapped the eval catalog; the
final merge preserves Grok qualification, completion updates, and
bounded API-response reading in all 348 cells. All 77 focused
catalog/eval/workflow tests pass. Both native stack layers (#14397) are
mergeable, and both exact-head Greptile reviews are 5/5 with successful
security scans and no unresolved review threads. All current-head CI is
green: 56 successful checks/statuses and four intentional skips ([CI
attempts](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36447124691)).
The initial attempt lost two EC2 runners to shutdown signals and stalled
a third shard during dependency preparation; all three passed the
same-commit failed-job-only retry. Trunk code-owner requirements remain
enforced. The review summary’s non-blocking saved-asset offset
classification note concerns code already merged in #14301; those
runtime files are identical to master and outside this stack’s diff.
Historical live evidence below retains its original source revisions.
[Final public npm
verification](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36445542764)
passed on `76ea70cd4d13786a042af9df82f0fd7a8c85ae30`: 17 public
packages, an executed offline lifecycle sentinel, unchanged consumer
lock, built-in launcher, missing-prerequisite rejection, and verified
separately provisioned binary/command lease. Provisioning and cleanup
require no host privilege elevation; only the positive probe mounts the
temporary native binary read-only. The verifier is unchanged by the
final master merge. All six isolation tests and an offline npm smoke
test pass. The prior head had 56 green CI checks and a 5/5 review after
two unchanged tests timed out and passed a failed-job-only retry ([CI
attempts](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36444597313)).
All 56 recovery-display/lineage tests pass; re-review cleared the
already-covered missed-retry concern. Earlier EC2 failures remain
retained: [npm lockfile
rejection](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36436311203),
[missing compiler in the slim
image](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36440210984),
and the aggregate 15-minute test timeouts in those broad runs. Both
broad attempts passed typecheck, token gates, Product E2E type/unit
checks and build. The focused EC2 lane preserves the existing
trusted-actor and immutable-source gates.


Earlier documentation/test checkpoint
`ff244c4fd78a7ede5a3e00efe09f475f133ef33e` leaves runtime behavior
unchanged. 154 focused tests pass across configuration building, native
provider resolution, permission policy, credentials, UI configuration,
and new-agent setup (including both Grok auth modes); token gates pass.
All fresh CI is green for this head: 56 successful checks/statuses and
two intentional skips ([run
36367065119](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36367065119)).
Greptile is 5/5 with no new findings. Grok already inherits the shared
`approve-all` default, so unattended setup requires no manual permission
change.

Runtime head `bb5a9307991f1ac567b781970ef11b39d518e19b` fixes a final
staging continuation failure before provider startup: explicit
replacement archived the old harness but left its failover backups
active, which caused `runner_harness_state_mismatch`. The regression
fails before the fix and passes after it; all eight adjacent
recovery-safety cases also pass. Old backups remain inspectable inside
the continuity archive. All fresh CI is green at this head ([run
36360839248](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36360839248)),
with a 5/5 review. One unrelated Cursor test timed out in the initial
server shard; the same-commit failed-job rerun passed, and both attempts
are retained. Staging deployment is confirmed healthy on this revision.
The controller image is
`ghcr.io/paperclipai/paperclip@sha256:6ad91c487910ccd2596ff7aed0a3a3ea5233d12b51b83cd6e1402237749b9673`.
The final browser-created staging task passed on this exact revision
with API authentication: context read → structured human question →
controller restart → answer submission → same native provider session
resumed → document saved → task Done. The two turns took approximately
119s and 77s. The actual write receipt was applied, and the saved
document has exactly one revision containing the selected answer and
requested marker. Usage and cost were not reported. [Controller image
build](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36360889243).

- Previous integration head `a44f7dbb6b6f77cd9ed893756ca453307f281e5f`:
all CI green (53 successful checks/statuses, two intentional skips),
including repository typecheck/build/tests, native Runner tests, browser
shards, and canary installation checks. [CI run
36358672529](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36358672529).
Greptile is 5/5 with no unresolved findings.
- Focused checks cover Grok credentials, executable admission, launcher
assets, provider-pack paths/permissions, workflow contracts, setup
defaults, CLI authorization, and subscription conflict recovery. All 39
protocol definitions validate. Final integration checks pass 124
catalog/evidence/cache tests and nine project-form tests; token gates
pass. Some local dependency checks could not load the stale installed
dependency tree; the corresponding fresh EC2 checks pass.
- Clean public npm installation passed on EC2 at
`8b172ebcf8e02e30662d830c00f3961e3bd459ec` ([run
36164964900](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36164964900)):
17 unified-version packages, lifecycle scripts enabled, built-in
launcher present, no separate Grok package or npm-downloaded binary,
missing prerequisite rejected, separately provisioned native executable
and command lease verified. No credentials or inference were used.
Subsequent changes preserve this npm asset layout.
- The immutable Daytona prerequisite image is
`ghcr.io/paperclipai/paperclip-daytona-runner@sha256:98957d5be0ac774d086b6402b5849e8e6356fec70fb8c09fca6eb4ed6de918e0`,
built from `5a2db471f3ddabe77f9f80e76ed27f996cb97fba`. The previous
Cloud controller image was
`ghcr.io/paperclipai/paperclip@sha256:fd914e1ab1e45f741e8e078ff452d16f082d7ac05f9b4b3506d3a3c64150d204`,
built from `a44f7dbb6b6f77cd9ed893756ca453307f281e5f`; it is superseded
by the latest image above. Its EC2 build verified provider-pack access
under an unrelated unprivileged UID.
- Browser staging at `40f898bc4cba73c1dff4e6344a3983ba0fb247ef` passed
full Grok onboarding with the correct `grok-4.7` model, saved credential
delivery, and pinned Daytona execution. A browser-created task read
context and asked the structured human question. After a controller
restart, answering the persisted question resumed the same native
provider session, saved the requested document, and completed the task.
Actual tool outcomes and durable state agree: one question and one
document revision. The two successful turns took 42.7s and 63.1s; usage
and cost were not reported.
- Restricted policy returned the expected `approval_required` outcome.
Functional staging tests explicitly selected `approve-all`; controller
authorization and governed approvals remain enforced. Temporary board
CLI access was revoked and verified rejected (HTTP 401), and the
disposable onboarding agent was paused.

Failures remain retained: the pre-fix continuation failure (its task
remains blocked; the passing final task is fresh), the original Cloud
provider-pack permission failure, the expected restricted-policy denial,
the superseded npm staging failure, and an earlier monolithic CI
infrastructure timeout. Browser CI exposed a project alias/form race;
the final stack uses master's stronger draft-preservation fix and all
browser shards pass. Historical full subscription/API protocol and
Product rosters retain their original source revisions and do not
qualify this packaging revision. No local Docker or Rust build was used.

## Risks

The branch includes master’s draft-preservation fix for project URL
aliases. It keeps the same project’s edit form mounted and clears prior
data when the project or company changes.

Custom sandboxes and local execution hosts must provision the pinned
binary before Grok starts. Missing, changed, unsupported-platform, and
symlinked executables fail admission. The new builtin profile cannot
resume sessions created with the former private-package profile.
Existing Claude/Codex npm bridge profiles retain their package pins.
Grok restricted modes preserve the selected policy but cannot
automatically admit Paperclip calls: ACP permission metadata does not
independently bind tool authority, so those calls stop with
`approval_required`. New Grok configurations default to `approve-all`,
including API configurations that omit the mode. Existing explicitly
restricted configurations remain restricted; controller authorization
and governed approvals remain enforced.

## Model Used

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