DottaandPaperclip a7dd5284b5 feat: add company fast-response acknowledgements (#15748)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Human messages start agent work through task, chat, and
external-channel intake.
> - Agent startup can delay the first visible response.
> - A small direct model call can acknowledge the request while normal
work starts.
> - This response must remain separate from evidence that the agent
answered or completed work.
> - This pull request adds optional company-wide fast responses with
durable receipts, access checks, and cost accounting.
> - Users receive prompt acknowledgement without changing the agent
execution path.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

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

**Problem or motivation**

Users can wait for an agent to start before they receive a contextual
response. Generic progress messages do not confirm what the user asked.
An acknowledgement must not falsely complete work or satisfy an
unanswered turn.

**Proposed solution**

Add a disabled-by-default experimental fast-response model using an
existing shared API connection. Generate one short acknowledgement for
each accepted human turn. Use the existing agent identity and external
publication outboxes. Retain platform provenance and account for the
inference independently.

**Alternatives considered**

Running the acknowledgement through the agent runtime adds startup
latency. Restricting implementation to OpenRouter leaves other existing
API connections unsupported. This change supports all existing API
connections and uses OpenRouter for live verification.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends existing agent communication and connection settings.
ROADMAP.md and open pull requests were checked. No duplicate
fast-response implementation was found. The maintainer supplied the
feature plan directly.

## What Changed

- Add Experimental fast responses to instance settings. Keep the feature
off by default. Enforce the flag at intake, dispatch, and publication.
- Move Decision model and Fast response setup to company Settings →
Connections when the experiment is enabled. Place Connections below
Environments. Separate the model sections with clear headings and a
divider. Keep Decision model in General when the experiment is off.
Route Costs setup links to the available settings page.
- Make the acknowledgement prompt a multiline template string. Ask for a
brief, positive response in the user’s language.

- Add settings, connection/model selection, sponsorship, fixed-sample
testing, and Costs history.
- Add a Vercel AI SDK text service for existing native, routed, Bedrock,
and local API connections.
- Add durable per-turn requests, a bounded worker, a three-second
admission deadline, and one inference attempt.
- Integrate task creation, task and agent chat, steering, queued
follow-ups, experimental board chat, shared chat intake, and email.
- Preserve receipt provenance and exclude receipts from completion,
recovery, interaction resolution, and agent wakeups.
- Recheck authorization, source validity, real replies, budgets, and
destination binding before publication. Preserve accounting for
suppressed or uncertain outcomes.
- Add provider contracts, database race tests, channel outbox tests, UI
tests, Stories, and documentation. Keep decision-model execution
unchanged.

## Verification

- Local `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and UI token gates pass after
rebase. The UI typecheck and build also pass after the final navigation
fixes. All 37 focused navigation tests pass. The first full local `pnpm
test:run` invocation reported seven chat failures. All seven passed in
isolated reruns after fixture updates and host cleanup. This invocation
was stopped after the full final-head CI suite passed.
- Initial local database tests hit macOS shared-memory exhaustion. A
diagnostic confirmed `shmget: No space left on device` with the system
limit of 32 IDs. Three abandoned, unattached PostgreSQL IPC headers were
reclaimed. The isolated rerun passed all 31 fast-response and channel
tests. The two additional Slack regression cases also passed in a
separate rerun. No active database was stopped.
- UI token gates pass. Provider contract tests cover all supported API
connection types. Fast-response tests cover uniqueness, authorization,
budgets, expiry, cancellation, restart, real-reply races, and the
experimental flag.
- The test drive verified that disabling the experiment hides
Connections and redirects its direct URL. Enabling it restores the saved
OpenRouter setup. After restart on the final commit, the OpenRouter
settings sample returned “Sure, I’ll take care of fixing the border
around the settings panel.” in 428 ms. It used 260 input and 31 output
tokens and recorded $0.0000576 in reported cost.
- Earlier live OpenRouter verification produced a receipt in 1.013
seconds for a new task. The real agent then supplied its substantive
answer. A separate settings test took 1.34 seconds, used 246 input and
23 output tokens, and recorded $0.0000361.
- Live Slack verification on final commit
`24016fa525961ebc7a4acffdc5019ce123970549` passed for a fresh initial
task and a follow-up in a disposable bot DM. The initial acknowledgement
appeared 2.405 seconds after the Slack message and 1.413 seconds after
durable acceptance; the follow-up appeared in 2.322 seconds and 1.160
seconds respectively. The recorded generation/settlement durations were
898 ms and 697 ms. The initial call used 291 input / 39 output tokens
and cost $0.00006705; the follow-up used 281 / 47 and cost $0.00007035.
- The Slack acknowledgements retained the assigned agent identity and
`origin: fast_response`, source-turn references, and no fabricated run
ID. A status snapshot after the initial receipt showed the task still
`in_progress` with its real execution run. The agent then read the CSV
fixture and correctly reported two ready items, two blockers, and their
owners. Both replies stayed in the originating DM, and no duplicate
generic working message followed the delivered contextual
acknowledgements. The `new` command started a fresh conversation session
without generating a fast response.
- An earlier eligible Slack turn generated a response but suppressed
publication. Its reported cost was retained, generic progress remained,
and the real agent completed the requested result. This is recorded
separately from the two delivered acknowledgements; the history did not
expose a precise suppression reason.
- Slack verification used real signed provider events, the existing
intake/publication paths, and a user-approved temporary webhook-only
HTTPS tunnel. Subscriptions were limited to direct-message events. The
test bot was paused and the tunnel stopped afterward. Live
channel/group-thread and GitHub journeys remain unverified; their mocked
tests cover intake, destination binding, publication, and continued
underlying work.
- Greptile reviewed final commit
`24016fa525961ebc7a4acffdc5019ce123970549` at 5/5. Both new review
findings are fixed and all threads are resolved. [Final-head CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38060015730)
passed. This includes grouped server/chat/workspace tests, serialized
suites, runner checks, browser journeys, typecheck, build, release
registry, policy, and the canary dry run.
- Manual check: enable Experimental fast responses. Open company
Settings → Connections. Select a shared API connection and model. Save
and use Test response. Submit a task message and confirm that its
receipt does not complete the task.

## Risks

- The migration adds receipt and configuration tables plus accounting
references. It uses idempotent statements and follows the current
migration sequence.
- A slow provider, authorization change, or real-agent reply can
suppress an acknowledgement. Existing progress feedback remains
available.
- Unknown provider billing retains a reservation until reconciliation.
External deliveries with uncertain outcomes must not be blindly
repeated.
- Live Slack initial-task and follow-up DM journeys pass. Live Slack
channel/group-thread and GitHub journeys remain unverified. The PR
remains a draft and records these gaps. Final-head repository CI and
automated review pass.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and browser interaction. The runtime does not expose an exact
model snapshot ID or context-window size; these are not asserted.

scotttongandClaude Opus 5 8f69e0af9d fix(ui): confirm every copy action (#13603)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Much of the work means moving an opaque value somewhere else: an
agent id, a callback URL, a webhook secret, an error payload for a bug
report
> - Copy buttons all over the app do that, and most already say whether
it worked — an icon that flips to a check, a label that reads "Copied"
> - Eleven did not. They passed the promise to `.catch(() => {})` and
showed nothing at all
> - A copy that says nothing looks exactly like a copy the browser
refused, and the only way to tell is to paste somewhere and look
> - The clipboard really does refuse: over plain HTTP on a non-secure
host the async Clipboard API is unavailable, and the fallback can still
fail
> - This pull request gives every copy action an affordance, through two
shared hooks
> - The benefit is that a person can tell a copy from a failure without
leaving the page

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Eleven copy buttons gave no feedback. They called `copyTextToClipboard`
and discarded the result:

```
onClick={() => void copyTextToClipboard(robotEmail).catch(() => {})}
```

Nothing changes on screen, whether the write succeeded or failed. This
is the same surface where most other copy buttons do show a check or a
"Copied" label, so the silent ones read as broken.

**Expected behavior**

Every copy action says whether the clipboard took the value. A rejected
write says so rather than staying silent or claiming success.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Open the connector setup flow for an app that shows a sharing email
or a callback URL.
2. Press **Copy** next to that value.
3. Before this change nothing on screen changes. Compare with the copy
button on a login panel, which flips to a check.
4. To see the failure case, open Paperclip over plain HTTP on a
non-localhost host, where the async Clipboard API is not available.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`45586170e` on `master`.

**Deployment mode**

Local.

**Agent adapter(s) involved**

Not adapter-specific (core bug).

**Additional context**

Commit `1fa36be35` moved every copy through `lib/clipboard.ts`, so the
call sites are findable. Of 62 call sites, 51 already showed feedback
and 11 did not.

## What Changed

- New `ui/src/lib/use-copy-action.ts` with two hooks:
- `useCopyAction` for a control that stays on screen. It returns
`copied` and `failed` for the inline swap the rest of the app already
uses, and resets itself.
- `useCopyToast` for a menu item, which unmounts with its menu before an
inline state could be read, so its confirmation goes to the toast
viewport.
- Both wait for the write to resolve before reporting success, and both
report a rejection as a failure. `AdapterLoginChrome.test.tsx` already
held that line for one button; the helper now makes it the default.
- The eleven silent sites now use one of the two: the connector setup
flow's sharing-email and callback-URL buttons, the runner inspector's
copy-value and copy-path buttons, the agent bubble and skill studio menu
items, annotation "Copy link" on both its hosts, both secret-error
detail buttons, the chat webhook secret, and the motion tweak panel's
export box.
- The chat webhook secret follows its own file's convention: a label
that reads "Webhook secret copied", matching the manifest buttons beside
it.
- The 51 sites that already had feedback are untouched. Converting them
would be a large diff with no visible change.
- `clipboard-usage.test.ts` gains a static check, sibling to the one
that already keeps copies on the shared helper. It fails if a new copy
site ships with no affordance.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run ui/src/lib/use-copy-action.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/clipboard-usage.test.ts ui/src/lib/clipboard.test.ts
ui/src/components/AdapterLoginChrome.test.tsx` — 18 tests pass.
- The new hook tests cover the three cases that matter: no confirmation
while the write is still in flight, a failure state on a rejected write,
and a return to rest after the reset delay. The toast hook is covered
for both tones.
- `npx vitest run ui/src/pages/apps/AppsConnect.test.tsx
ui/src/components/task-chat ui/src/components/RunnerInspector.test.tsx
ui/src/components/DocumentAnnotation` — the suites over the touched
components pass.
- `npx tsc -b ui` — clean.

## Risks

Low. Each change is additive at its own call site and the copy path
itself is unchanged. The static check is the only part that touches
future contributors: it is one assertion, and its pattern list is easy
to extend or drop.

## Model Used

tool use and code execution.

scotttongandClaude Opus 4.8 ea83c5c822 feat(task-chat): bring back copy/👍/👎 actions on the agent bubble footer (#11025)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The task view shows a threaded conversation between the user and the
agent, with agent replies rendered as bubbles that carry a "✓ Worked · N
tools" summary line.
> - The conference-room chat already offers per-message copy and
thumbs-up / thumbs-down feedback, but the redesigned task thread dropped
these controls from the agent bubble footer.
> - Users lose a quick way to copy an agent reply or send feedback on
it, and the redesign silently ignored the feedback-vote props it was
already given.
> - This pull request prepends a copy · thumbs-up · thumbs-down cluster
to the bubble summary line and wires the existing feedback-vote props
through.
> - The benefit is a consistent feedback surface across both chat views,
with no new API.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this change; the underlying issue is
described inline below following the feature template
(`.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/feature_request.yml`).

#### Problem or motivation

The redesigned task thread renders each agent reply with a "✓ Worked · N
tools · <timestamp>" summary line, but it dropped the copy and thumbs-up
/ thumbs-down controls that the conference-room chat still shows. Users
can no longer copy an agent reply or vote feedback from the task thread.
The redesign component already received `feedbackVotes` and `onVote`
props but ignored them.

#### Proposed solution

Prepend a copy · 👍 · 👎 cluster to the summary line, leading the
always-visible timestamp, reusing the shared `IssueChatFeedbackButtons`
so both chat views speak the same feedback language. Anchor the cluster
to the turn's summary row (a sibling of the expandable tool-history
fold) so it stays on the summary line whether the tool history is
collapsed or expanded.

#### Alternatives considered

Placing the cluster inside the expandable fold — rejected because
expanding the tool history then re-centered the actions to the middle of
the tall fold.

#### Roadmap alignment

UI polish to the task thread; no core-roadmap overlap.

## What Changed

- Add `TaskChatBubbleActions`: a copy · thumbs-up · thumbs-down cluster
built on the shared `IssueChatFeedbackButtons`.
- Render the cluster on the agent bubble's "✓ Worked · …" summary line,
leading the timestamp; runless agent replies get the same cluster with
the timestamp trailing. Human and system bubbles are unchanged.
- Add a `leading` slot to `TaskChatTurn` so the actions sit on the
summary row, a sibling of the tool-history fold, and stay anchored when
the fold expands.
- Wire the redesign to the `feedbackVotes` / `onVote` props it already
received.
- Add a demo binding in the `TaskChatLab` dev harness.

## Verification

- `pnpm check:token-gates` — 3/3 gates CLEAN.
- `pnpm typecheck` — clean across all packages.
- `cd ui && pnpm vitest run
src/components/task-chat/TaskChatBubble.test.tsx
src/components/task-chat/TaskChatTurn.test.tsx` — 31/31 pass.
- Manual: open a task thread, confirm the copy / 👍 / 👎 cluster shows on
the agent bubble summary line before the timestamp, copy works, votes
toggle, and the cluster stays on the summary line when the tool history
is expanded.

Visual change: snapshot baselines are intentionally not updated, per the
`doc/design/DECISION-SHEET.md` entry "Per-change snapshot verification
demoted to dormant (Jul 13 2026)".

## Risks

Low risk. UI-only change scoped to the redesigned task-chat bubble
footer. It reuses an existing shared feedback component and existing
vote props; no API, schema, or server change. Human and system bubbles
are untouched.

## Model Used

Claude Opus 4.8 (Anthropic), model id `claude-opus-4-8`, extended
thinking enabled, tool use.
