DottaandPaperclip f0e12c8519 Add managed Slack setup with an independent own-app path (#15679)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Slack connects a person to an agent through an installed app and a
verified identity.
> - Independent installations must remain usable without Paperclip Cloud
or manager credentials.
> - Approved Cloud deployments can use Slack manager grants to create
and install each agent's app.
> - Both paths should share credential storage, identity checks,
recovery, and the existing runtime.
> - This pull request adds gated managed setup and keeps independent app
setup under Advanced.
> - It also makes ongoing connection settings and personal test messages
easier to use.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Slack setup, connection settings, tenant credential storage, and the
Cloud connector handoff.

**Problem or motivation**

Approved deployments need an installation flow without pasted
configuration tokens. Open-source users must retain their independent
Slack app flow. A connection manager also needs a simple way to check a
bot from Settings.

**Proposed solution**

Use the managed path when the instance is configured to support it.
Choose agent and Connect are the two visible stops. Continue starts
authorization or installation. Use your own app remains under Advanced
before creation. Save personal manager grants by company, Paperclip
user, Slack user, workspace, and manager app. Reuse only verified
identities for test messages. Unknown identities must complete a private
Slack connection challenge before linking and receiving the test DM.

**Alternatives considered**

A shared bot would change each agent's Slack identity. Requiring Slack
CLI or a hosted service for self-hosted users would remove independent
installation.

**Roadmap alignment**

This maintainer-requested change improves Connected Apps and
experimental Agent Chat. It adds provisioning and management controls to
the existing Slack runtime.

**Additional context**

The companion Cloud broker profile is a separate deployment
prerequisite. Managed setup remains gated. Existing-app adoption is
deferred.

## What Changed

- Extract Slack registration, provider requests, completion,
customer-owned setup, managed setup, and personal manager grants into
focused services. Preserve the compatibility facade and independent
removal cleanup.
- Add company-scoped manager grants and a registration reference through
an additive, idempotent migration after current master. Keep runtime
credentials separate from app-registration secrets.
- Add authenticated manager authorization, sealed handoff, serialized
refresh and revocation, app creation, managed installation, and
installer-bound OAuth fallback.
- Preserve creation intent, block automatic uncertain recreation, save
credentials before downstream checks, and validate app, workspace, bot,
scopes, and installer identity.
- Add the two-stop production wizard and ordered stories. Keep the
own-app, manual, existing-app, and legacy-draft paths.
- Simplify Settings. Open Slack configuration targets the saved app. The
test-message action has its own row. Remove the old manual-avatar
section, channel-message section, and broken permissions link.
- Add paginated account discovery and a private connection challenge for
unknown accounts. Expired invitations stop waiting and offer a new
private invitation. Save send receipts before provider dispatch and
preserve confirmed delivery when activity logging fails.
- Reinstall the saved managed app on explicit reconnect, replace revoked
credentials, and resume completion. Persist reconnect intent and
duplicate-request receipts without creating another app.
- Update provider browser tests, recovery tests, secret redaction, setup
documentation, and the agent prompt. Preserve current master's durable
verification scheduling.

## Verification

- Full workspace typecheck and repository build passed on `56d389d47a`.
The subsequent reconnect retry fix in `288364eada` also passed UI
typecheck and UI build.
- 114 focused Slack registration cases and 13 production managed-wizard
cases passed, including fresh-token reconnect, retry after installation
failure, and duplicate reconnect requests.
- All nine affected Slack browser cases passed against the production UI
and a disposable fixture server. They cover managed setup, automatic
setup, own-app selection, refresh, recovery, mobile behavior, and
connection settings.
- Eight focused real-database test-message cases passed. They cover a
private ownership challenge, saved grant reuse, account pagination,
revoked and conflicting links, workspace mismatch, disabled DMs, revoked
membership, audit failure, ambiguous dispatch, and secret canaries.
- UI token gates and the production Storybook build passed.
- Greptile reviewed exact head
`288364eada5d9c114fad991ff634612639d06672` at 5/5 with no actionable
findings or unresolved review threads.
- The full repository test suite and current-head CI are running. Their
final results will replace this line before merge.
- Earlier live feature previews created two bots in the authorized
Paperclip Slack workspace and reused one personal manager grant. Local
managed Continue created and installed a bot without a configuration
token or a separate Add to Slack action. Avatars, welcome DMs, signed
callbacks, and direct replies were observed. A Settings test DM also
arrived in the signed-in user's Slack account.
- Earlier staging thread qualification required manual publication
recovery for one bot. Current-head live qualification remains required
before enabling the production default. Fixture results do not establish
Slack approval behavior in other workspaces.

## Risks

- Personal manager tokens can create apps. They stay in scoped vault
entries. The manager client secret stays at the broker. Company,
actor/session, origin, and app identity checks apply throughout setup.
- The additive migration must also work on qualification instances that
applied earlier branch migrations. Table, column, index, and constraint
creation is idempotent.
- Creation and message timeouts can leave uncertain outcomes. Saved
request IDs prevent automatic duplicate dispatch.
- Unknown Slack identities must receive and complete their private
challenge while signed in. Account selection alone does not grant
Paperclip permissions. Existing revoked or conflicting links are not
overwritten.
- A development-only manager transport uses an explicitly configured
private credential file for local qualification. Production ignores this
transport; no manager credentials are bundled with open source.
- Managed rollout requires Slack approval, the companion broker
deployment, configured secrets, and final live qualification. Removing a
connection does not delete its Slack app.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, code execution, and browser
tools. The session does not expose the exact serving model ID or
context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip 19e9facc5b perf(chat): wake delivery queues from commits and deadlines (#15802)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Chat connectors store incoming messages and outgoing publications in
durable queues.
> - The app checks these queues every second, even when they are empty.
> - Empty scans keep the database active and hinder instance sleep.
> - This pull request wakes three queue workers after transactions
settle and at known retry or recovery deadlines.
> - Empty queues stop scheduling checks. Existing rows retain their
ordering, retry, and recovery rules.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Idle database activity from incoming chat deliveries, outgoing
publications, and Slack upload receipt recovery.

**Subsystem affected**

`server/` — chat delivery and background work scheduling.

**Current behavior**

The app's one-second chat timer scans the three queues together with
provider and action maintenance. Empty queues continue to query
PostgreSQL.

**Proposed behavior**

Register three independent workers with the existing delivery
coordinator. Producers announce work inside their database transactions.
Commit wakes the corresponding worker. Startup restores outstanding
work; persisted retries and stale claims supply the next deadline. An
empty queue has no recurring scan.

**Reason and benefit**

Remove avoidable queue reads without requiring a new table, an external
scheduler, or a persistent PostgreSQL listener.

**Breaking changes**

No schema or public API change. Work notifications are scoped to the
app's shared database owner. Direct SQL and independent database roots
do not send these notifications; startup still scans durable work.

**Additional context**

Refs #15625, #15750, and #15757 for the preceding sleep work. Related:
#15153 reduces chat query allocation while retaining polling. This PR
changes when the three queue workers run; it does not add query caching.

## What Changed

- Register independent incoming delivery, publication, and Slack receipt
workers on the shared scheduler.
- Add transaction work signals at queue writes, endpoint state changes,
and action transitions that unblock publications. Keep provider I/O
outside the added transactions.
- Restore deadlines from durable retry times, abandoned claims, and
publication lease expiry. Share publication and receipt eligibility
rules between dispatch and deadline queries. Respect incoming
conversation order and lifecycle dependencies.
- Exclude publications blocked by unresolved Slack tool sends. Wake them
when the tool receipt changes.
- Wake publication dispatch when an endpoint send finishes so free slots
refill. Preserve per-endpoint concurrency, conversation order, and
conservative handling of uncertain sends.
- Wake receipt recovery when a stale publication becomes
`delivery_unknown`, and wake queues when a provider connection recovers.
- Commit interaction publications with their callback tokens so dispatch
cannot see an incomplete card.
- Keep provider runtimes, other action outboxes, milestone and
wake-notice projection, Teams protocol maintenance, GitHub recovery, and
Slack session synchronization on their existing maintenance cadence.
This PR does not make the whole chat subsystem idle.
- Update the instance sleep inventory with this partial migration and
its remaining work.

## Verification

- All 1,225 PostgreSQL chat integration cases passed across the three
hosted chat shards. These cover retry and lease deadlines, blocked
followers, unresolved Slack sends, provider recovery, commit visibility,
and endpoint slot refill.
- 32 local app-wiring, queue-worker, and delivery-coordinator tests
passed after updating the wiring assertion for event-driven dispatch.
Fake timers cover an hour of idle time without queue scans.
- Related publication, interaction, receipt, and wake-notice tests
passed locally. The 13 interaction integration cases include atomic
rollback when callback-token storage fails.
- Local `pnpm typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and final server typecheck
passed. All hosted checks passed on the final commit, including build,
typecheck, test shards, release registry checks, and the canary dry run
(54 successful checks; two Storybook checks skipped for this backend
change).
- The last local PostgreSQL rerun was skipped because the embedded
database startup probe failed after five attempts. The hosted PostgreSQL
cases ran successfully; their skips only partition cases across shards.
- `git diff --check` passed. Greptile is 5/5 on the final commit with no
unresolved findings.

## Risks

- Every producer that makes queued work eligible must send a transaction
work signal. The tests exercise commit visibility, concurrent wakes,
worker failures, and restart recovery. Future direct SQL writers must
participate in this contract.
- The existing database work-signal layer reconciles uncertain
transaction outcomes. This PR adds no work-signal table or schema
migration.
- Provider and action maintenance still polls. Further changes are
required before an idle chat-enabled instance can sleep.
- Tests use real PostgreSQL with simulated provider responses; they do
not send messages through live provider accounts.

## Model Used

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

Dotta 43212cb2b7 fix(slack): require result and review updates in conversation prompts (#15611)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip helps people manage AI agents and their work.
> - People can ask an agent to do work from a Slack thread.
> - The agent must return results and review requests to that
conversation.
> - The current prompts explain reply format but do not require these
updates.
> - This change adds one set of instructions to initial prompts and
later turns.
> - Users can see the result and the action needed for review in Slack.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
An agent can save results or a plan in Paperclip without telling the
user in Slack that the result is ready or that review is required.

**Expected behavior**
The agent reports results in the originating conversation. If review is
needed, it saves the required interaction and tells the user what to
review and how to act.

**Steps to reproduce**
Start work in a Slack thread. Have the agent prepare a plan that needs
approval or produce a deliverable. The prompt does not explicitly
require a result or review update in that thread.

Related: #15579 adds task links to Slack replies. This change covers
results and review requests, including later turns.

## What Changed

- Add shared instructions for result and review updates.
- Include the instructions in initial Slack guidance and per-turn
guidance.
- Keep the normal approval gates, delivery checks, and duplicate-message
rules.
- Add tests for channel and direct conversations, and for fresh and
resumed native and CLI turns.
- Update the Slack skill documentation.

## Verification

- Passed: guidance and heartbeat context tests (65 tests in two files).
- Passed: `git diff --check`.
- Workspace typecheck and build could not complete because this sandbox
has no `cargo` binary.
- The full local test run was stopped due to the sandbox memory limit.
GitHub CI runs the full checks.
- GitHub CI and automated review are pending.

## Risks

- Low risk. This change updates prompt text and tests. It does not
change transport or permissions.
- Prompt instructions guide agent behavior. They do not guarantee that
Slack delivery succeeds.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-6 (Codex). Used reasoning, code editing, and command tools.
The runtime does not expose a more specific model ID or context window
size.

DottaandPaperclip 71af2fbc3b fix(slack): teach agents how people connect their accounts (#15576)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Slack connections let people talk to an agent with their own
Paperclip permissions.
> - Each bot has a saved command that starts account linking.
> - The Access page explains this flow, but Slack agent turn context
omitted it.
> - An agent could guess the command or confuse channel membership with
Paperclip access.
> - This pull request gives agents the saved command and account
confirmation instructions.
> - People can ask the agent how to join without changing access
controls.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Slack agent context explained messages, tools, and questions. It did not
explain how a teammate can connect an account. The saved slash command
can differ from the current agent name.

**Expected behavior**

Give the saved bot command, such as `/research_ops connect`. The
teammate runs it themselves. They sign in through a private confirmation
link. A new company member must receive admin approval before account
confirmation. The connection manager can copy instructions from Access →
Invite people.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Configure a Slack bot with a custom slash command.
2. Rename its assigned agent.
3. Inspect a fresh or resumed Slack task prompt. Before this change, it
contains no account invitation instructions or saved connect command.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Base: `d6df12cef69fcaf2d2fe66a393168931d5b8b4e7`.

**Deployment mode**

Applies to local and hosted Slack chat connections. Deterministic tests
used a local isolated database. The new model probe has not run against
a live Slack bot.

Related work: Refs #15413 and #13638. This fixes agent guidance for
their existing account-linking flow. It adds no new membership system or
invitation endpoint.

## What Changed

- Read only the saved public slash command from the company-scoped
conversation endpoint. Supply it only to the assigned agent for Slack
turns with an active or verifying connection.
- Validate the command with the shared Slack configuration schema. Refer
to Access → Invite people when it is missing or invalid. Never guess
from the current agent name.
- Explain personal account confirmation, link expiry, and company
membership approval on fresh and resumed turns. Distinguish channel
invitations from Paperclip access.
- Add deterministic guidance regressions, a manual invitation model
probe, and setup documentation.

## Verification

- Passed: 63 tests in `heartbeat-context-summary.test.ts` and
`heartbeat-chat-task-link.test.ts`.
- Passed: four real-heartbeat regressions in
`heartbeat-slack-invitation.test.ts`. They check the saved command after
an agent rename, a persisted resumed session, full and compact prompts,
missing-command fallback, inactive endpoints, and a different assigned
agent. They also reject caller-supplied command fields and exclude other
setup metadata.
- Passed: the isolated `chat-channels.integration.test.ts` case
`discovers a Slack connect identity without starting work or granting
access`. It covers the private link, duplicate connect requests, and
nonmember access requests without a membership grant.
- Passed: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` and `pnpm
--filter @paperclipai/server build`.
- Passed: `pnpm test:slack-connector --list` and `git diff --check`.
- Passed: repository `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and `pnpm
check:token-gates`. Typecheck required local IPC access for the
migration check.
- Passed: final-commit CI, with 54 successful checks and two optional
Storybook checks skipped. CI includes all server, chat, workspace,
serialized, Runner, and browser test shards, typecheck, build, and
canary dry run.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` was started. It was stopped after full
CI passed; it had no final local summary. The focused invitation checks
passed locally. Do not count the interrupted local run as a full-suite
pass.
- Greptile gave the exact final commit
`f37e52bde621ef7f5b2bb345074d53345f8e4ee9` a 5/5 score. Both review
findings were fixed and their threads resolved.
- The new `invite-person` model probe is manual. These deterministic
results do not establish a live model or Slack acceptance pass.

## Risks

- Model guidance cannot prove that a person joined. The existing
account-linking and membership checks remain authoritative.
- Legacy rows without a saved command use the Access page fallback.
Invalid command text is excluded from the prompt.
- The query selects only the public command. It does not expose
registration secrets, tokens, or personal confirmation links.
- No schema changes, new provider requests, permission grants, or
telemetry changes.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex. The exact backend variant and context
window are not exposed in this session. Used reasoning, repository
inspection, code editing, and test execution.

DottaandPaperclip d66acb7ac1 feat: automate Slack bot app setup and installation (#15413)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Chat connectors give each agent a customer-owned bot and task-backed
conversations.
> - Manual Slack setup requires app creation and copying durable
credentials.
> - Operators need a shorter setup that an assisting agent can use
safely.
> - This pull request creates the app through Slack's Manifest API and
installs it through OAuth.
> - Durable registration state supports recovery without creating
another app.
> - A four-screen wizard, automatic avatar upload, and OAuth account
linking reduce setup work.
> - Connector settings and per-turn tool guidance support daily use
after installation.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Native Slack bot setup, company secret storage, chat connector
management, and agent tool guidance.

**Problem or motivation**

New Slack bots require manual app creation and copying a signing secret
and bot token. Interrupted setup can create duplicate apps. The setup
and management screens contain unnecessary controls. Agents also need
guidance for native questions, files, thread replies, and governed Slack
actions.

**Proposed solution**

Use a temporary app-configuration access token to create a
customer-owned app. Save durable secrets in the vault. Bind OAuth to the
initiating actor, company, endpoint, registration revision, scopes, and
configured origins. Preserve manual and existing-app recovery. Link the
installing user's account, send a welcome DM, and advance from saved
server evidence. Keep request-URL recovery instructions available if
automatic connection detection waits.

**Alternatives considered**

The Slack CLI adds installation requirements. Socket Mode changes
transport. A shared Paperclip-owned app changes app ownership. These
alternatives are outside this change.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends existing chat connectors and secrets capabilities. Related
public work: #14037 and #13954 cover Slack MCP prerequisites and user
OAuth. No duplicate bot-registration PR was found.

## What Changed

- Share one reviewed manifest builder between automatic registration and
manual setup.
- Add replay-safe migration 0318 and company-bound registration state
with vault references and uncertain-creation recovery.
- Add registration, installation, callback, and resume APIs with
short-lived, single-use OAuth state.
- Save installation credentials before downstream checks and preserve
bot identity constraints.
- Reduce automatic setup to four screens. Keep advanced app details,
manual recovery, and existing-app setup.
- Upload the agent avatar with the Paperclip dark background. Link the
OAuth installer's account and send setup DMs.
- Show agent and connector-owner avatars. Simplify settings, access, and
conversation screens.
- Discover joined Slack channels and enable them by default. Start a
task from a bare mention and admit same-thread follow-ups.
- Refresh Slack tool guidance each turn. Add native-form, file,
approval, and delivery regressions plus manual model probe definitions
and sanitized acceptance records.
- Update deployment/database docs, OpenAPI, redaction, removal cleanup,
production Storybook stories, and provider browser tests.
- Merge current master and move the registration migration after its
latest migration without rewriting published commits.

The completed Slack success view intentionally has a single centered
**Done** action and no **Save & exit**, as explicitly requested by the
product owner. `DESIGN.md` records this exception; unfinished setup
steps retain the aligned wizard footer.

## Verification

- Passed after the master merge: repository typecheck, full build,
Storybook build, design-token gates, module-boundary gates, and
migration generation.
- Passed: all 352 focused Slack deterministic tests and all 14 affected
provider browser tests. Browser tests use controlled provider fixtures
and a separate throwaway instance.
- Passed on current head `c5d01e0e2`: the complete GitHub test matrix
(general server, chat, all workspaces, serialized server, and Runner),
all eight browser shards, typecheck/release registry, build, canary dry
run, security checks, and policy gates. There are 52 passing checks and
no pending or failing checks.
- Greptile completed on the exact current head with 5/5 and no
actionable findings or open review threads.
- Local repair verification passed 93 focused tests, including same-app
reinstall after revocation and rejection of consent started before
revocation, the AgentMail browser journey, and repository typecheck.
Local build and Storybook build also passed. The redundant local
full-suite rerun was stopped after the complete current-head CI matrix
passed.
- Real Slack setup and agent replies were exercised in the authorized
isolated test drive during the setup iteration.
- The ten additional model probes were attempted with legacy
`codex_local`, `gpt-5.6-sol`: five passed, two failed, and three were
partly verified. Native runtime is not qualified. See
`server/src/services/connectors/slack/evals/2026-10-08-acceptance.md`
for evidence and limits.
- Passing model probes cover native forms, downloaded file bytes, bare
mentions with thread replies, explicit posts/reactions, and saved
approval denial.
- The controlled uncertain-write probe found wrong delivery-check IDs.
The canvas fallback attempt used an invented tool name. Search
pagination/native search, a private-source denied-tool receipt, and
distinct board/webhook origins remain unqualified.

Reviewer path: enable Chat connectors, start Slack chat setup, select an
agent, enter an app-configuration access token, and approve Slack
installation. Send a message to the bot and confirm that setup advances
to success. Inspect settings and allowed channels. See
`doc/connections/SLACK-AUTOMATIC-SETUP.md` for deployment and recovery.

## Risks

- Slack app creation has no provider idempotency guarantee. A timeout
after dispatch stays uncertain until the operator checks Slack.
- OAuth needs a stable public HTTPS board origin. Webhook ingress may
use a separate configured HTTPS origin. Workspace policy can delay
installation.
- Migration 0318 can replay safely on instances that applied the earlier
development migration.
- OAuth installation now links the installer to the initiating Paperclip
user. Identity checks and company access rules still apply.
- Joined channels now enable bot responses by default. Linked-user
authorization and per-action approval rules still apply.
- Model behavior has the documented delivery-check and canvas fallback
failures. A passing CI run does not establish that every model probe
passed.
- Removing the connection does not delete the customer's Slack app. No
new first-party telemetry is added.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and browser verification. The runtime does not expose a more
specific authoring model ID or context-window size. The live bot probes
used OpenAI `gpt-5.6-sol` through `codex_local` in legacy mode.

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 d72389bee2 feat: add Browser Use Cloud connector and live task browsers (#14627)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The Apps gateway gives agents governed access to external tools.
> - Browser Use Cloud can run browser work, but a tool result alone does
not let a person watch or take over.
> - A task needs a durable browser session, a visible viewer, and
recorded costs.
> - This pull request adds a Browser Use Cloud v4 connection and
interactive browser tabs on tasks.
> - People can follow the work, interact with the page, and retain the
browser after the agent finishes.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

Agents need governed access to Browser Use Cloud. People need to see and
interact with the same browser from the task. A browser must remain
available after a run finishes and appear at the correct point in the
task feed.

**Proposed solution**

Add a native REST connection for the v4 API. Bind each session to its
company, task, agent, and credential grant. Open its interactive viewer
in the task side panel. Record provider costs as financial events. Use
`browser-use-cloud` as the app and connector key. Keep its skill with
the connector and deliver it only with authorized connection tools.

**Alternatives considered**

A v3 MCP connection would expose tools without the v4 lifecycle
integration. An external viewer link would leave the task. A fixed
viewer size would prevent pages from responding to changes in the task
pane.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the governed Apps gateway and Connected Apps roadmap. It
uses the existing task, grant, secret, approval, and financial records.
The work was requested by the maintainer. A search found no duplicate
Browser Use connector PR or issue.

## What Changed

- Add the Browser Use Cloud app, brand asset, API-key connection, and
profile settings under the `browser-use-cloud` key.
- Bundle the `browser-use-cloud` skill with the connector. Keep it out
of global `skills/` discovery. Deliver it only with authorized task/run
connection tools. Remove retired connector skill keys from runtime
overlays and preserve unrelated browser skills.
- Expose seven v4 tools through the governed gateway and deliver them to
native and CLI agents.
- Persist sessions, browsers, runs, event and recovery cursors, shutdown
leases, and cumulative cost accounting. Recover uncertain paid starts
without replaying them.
- Enforce task ownership, credential grants, approvals, revoked access,
and budget limits.
- Add interactive task browser tabs and compact chronological feed
entries. Retain the viewer across tab switches and keep visible idle
browsers open.
- Add debounced automatic viewport fitting, standard size presets, and a
viewer ownership lease.
- Add lifecycle, authorization, accounting, viewport, UI, and Storybook
coverage.
- Add an idempotent database migration after the current master
migration. Preserve deployed migration hashes. Migrate pre-release Cloud
connection and financial keys without replacing grants, credentials, or
browser history.
- Document provider behavior, live acceptance results, and the lack of
documented passkey forwarding.

## Verification

- Full workspace typecheck and production build pass on the updated
branch.
- Token gates, brand asset validation, module boundaries, and migration
ordering pass.
- Cloud tests verify global skill exclusion, authorized task/run
delivery, unassigned agents, disabled connections, revocation, adapter
isolation, and secret exclusion. The existing AgentMail connector
assignment test also passes.
- Migration replay runs twice against existing browser work and
financial records. It preserves the records and avoids duplicate costs.
- The focused provider, app catalog, OpenAPI, connection gateway, and
migration regression suites pass. Recovery coverage includes lost
replies, process crashes, provider rejection, and browser arrival
acknowledgement.
- All 54 checks pass on `2974b5f03641ad0cea3c941d8c02579316fa8c92`,
including the full test matrix, browser E2E shards, build, typecheck,
security, and release canary. Two optional Storybook jobs are skipped.
- Greptile is 5/5 on the same commit, with zero unresolved review
threads. The corrected review uses the actual master-to-head diff.
- The local `pnpm test:run` started and was stopped after the full CI
matrix passed. It did not complete locally; the full-suite result above
comes from CI.
- Earlier live acceptance used an isolated company with a capped
provider credential. The agent opened paperclip.ing, the embedded viewer
accepted navigation, and the same browser stayed available after
completion and tab switches.
- The local Storybook build passes. Stories cover the panel, footer,
feed entries, settings, lifecycle failures, and viewport modes with an
offline viewer fixture.

## Risks

- Browser Use charges for hosted work. Provider caps and local budget
checks reduce exposure; reported costs can arrive after work completes.
- Viewer and CDP URLs grant access to the browser. The server validates
and restricts them. They are excluded from agent results and durable
event data.
- Runtime resizing of v4 agent browsers uses a provider option confirmed
by live testing but absent from its published agent schema. Resizing
during a click may invalidate coordinates. Fixed presets remain
available.
- Viewport ownership is process-local and resets on restart. The
lifecycle and accounting records remain in the database.
- The original intermittent embedded-viewer stall has not been fully
diagnosed. A bounded reconnect and active-session recovery cover the
observed failure paths.
- Live tests did not cover every revocation, approval, rate-limit, or
restart case. Deterministic integration tests cover those paths. Passkey
forwarding is not claimed.
- Unknown create outcomes keep the credential available for cleanup.
Run-list absence cannot prove a paid POST was rejected, so recovery
stays pending until it can identify provider work.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6. Used reasoning, repository search, code execution,
browser interaction, and test tools. The exact serving model ID and
context-window size were not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip b0155a681a feat(slack): connect Paperclip conversations and scheduled messages (#13920)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Slack conversations use the same tasks and agents as the Paperclip
board.
> - A board reply must reach that Slack conversation and let the agent
continue the work.
> - An assigned agent also needs its Slack tools during normal tasks and
scheduled routines.
> - Both paths must keep the linked user's authority, delivery rules,
and conversation history.
> - This pull request adds those paths and reduces setup friction for
Slack bots.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Server orchestration, Slack connector tools, shared contracts, and chat
setup UI.

**Problem or motivation**

Replies entered in Paperclip did not provide a complete round trip to
the linked Slack thread. Slack and board wakeups could select different
model sessions for the same task. Agents also lacked their assigned
Slack tools outside Slack-origin work, which prevented a routine from
sending its responsible user a briefing. Inviting a bot could leave the
new channel disabled.

**Proposed solution**

Mirror human board messages with author attribution and route the agent
result to the same thread. Use the same session key across both entry
points. Supply Slack tools to the connection's assigned agent in normal
tasks and routines, using the current responsible user's verified link.
Enable newly invited channels while preserving explicit disabled
choices. Add a browser-agent setup prompt to the Slack wizard.

**Alternatives considered**

A separate Slack scheduler or task dispatcher would duplicate existing
Paperclip workflows. Reusing the connection owner's identity would grant
the wrong authority. Replaying old channel history could start
unintended work. This change uses ordinary task wakeups, routine
dispatch, and Slack's original invitation mention event instead.

**Roadmap alignment**

Extends the shipped Scheduled Routines and governed Apps capabilities.
It does not add a separate task lifecycle. Related work: #13828 and
#13809. Related test stabilization: #13877. The existing plugin
Slack-control proposals are separate from this built-in connector
change.

## What Changed

- Queue human Paperclip messages for the original Slack thread with
display-name attribution and stable delivery identities. Require the
author’s current linked Slack identity and recheck access before
delivering messages or agent replies.
- Apply pause, dependency, cancellation, and closed-workspace guards
before explicit Board sends request work and again when the durable
outbox dispatches it.
- Route agent results back to Slack and preserve model-session
continuity, including replies that reopen completed tasks.
- Resolve assigned Slack connections for normal agent tasks and
routines. Recheck the responsible user's link, membership, and
permissions at execution.
- Add `slack_open_dm` for the responsible user's bot DM and request the
`im:write` scope.
- Enable newly discovered invited channels. Keep explicit OFF choices
and normal admission and deduplication rules.
- Add a copyable Slack setup prompt for a computer-use agent, with
Storybook coverage. Share the prompt-button component with GitHub.
- Update Slack tool documentation and runtime instructions.
- Stabilize the mobile project browser test by waiting for the final
canonical route before editing, preserving all persistence assertions.

## Verification

- Live staging: invited the bot after the first mention. The channel
became enabled and the bot answered that original mention.
- Live staging: a normal Paperclip reply appeared in Slack with author
attribution. The agent completed the calculation and replied once in the
original thread and in Paperclip.
- Live staging: a codeword entered in Slack was recalled from Paperclip.
A following Slack calculation used the result from the Paperclip turn.
Run metadata confirmed the same model session for both entry points.
- Live staging: a scheduled routine used `slack_open_dm` and
`slack_post_message` to deliver one DM. The existing app was reinstalled
with `im:write`. The test routine was paused after verification.
- Before the master merge: 397 focused feature tests passed. The
continuity fix passed all 76 issue comment/update route tests and six
focused route/integration cases. Typecheck, build, and token gates
passed.
- Review fixes: 47 focused integration cases passed, covering link
revocation/replacement, private membership removal, guarded outbox
dispatch, concurrent workers, lost scheduler responses, a real
one-connection pool, exact reply provenance, and attachment retries. All
99 issue-comment route tests and the Slack catalog browser test passed.
- Full local typecheck, production build, token gates, and
module-boundary checks passed. The full local test command passed 25,915
tests before a 15-second timeout in
`issue-thread-interaction-routes.test.ts`; that entire suite passed on
isolated rerun (81 tests). Remaining serialized coverage is provided by
the current-head CI shards.
- An unchanged Cursor adapter test hit its 10-second limit in CI; all
five tests in that file passed on a local rerun in 3.11 seconds, and the
failed CI shard passed on its single retry.
- The preview-server readiness test passed a local rerun (28 tests). The
mobile-project readiness fix passed three repetitions of both browser
tests (6/6).
- Final commit `64ac0d9897f4353375996f1b1b38e5040bdeb0a0`: all CI gates
passed, including all eight browser shards, all server/chat suites,
typecheck, build, runner checks, and security checks. Greptile reviewed
this exact commit at 5/5; all review threads are resolved.

## Risks

- Human messages on a Slack-linked task now publish to its Slack thread.
The task banner states this behavior. Incoming Slack messages and
internal agent bookkeeping must not echo back.
- Normal tasks and routines can now use the assigned bot. Authority
remains bound to the current responsible user's link; it does not fall
back to the connection owner. Revocation, private-context limits, and
queued-write checks still apply.
- Existing Slack apps need `im:write` and a reinstall to open DMs. Other
existing capabilities remain available without that scope.
- New invited channels default to enabled. Explicit disabled choices
remain disabled. Channels created by bot tools still require a person to
enable responses.
- No database migration or new provider credentials are required.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, code execution, GitHub CLI,
and browser tools. The runtime does not expose a more specific model
build identifier or context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip a10702a878 feat(slack): add governed tools for Slack-origin tasks (#13828)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Chat connectors let people start and continue agent tasks from other
services.
> - A Slack conversation needs access to its surrounding discussion and
Slack collaboration tools.
> - The agent must use the linked requester's access and keep private
material within its permitted audience.
> - This pull request adds Slack tools through the existing connector
contribution and approval framework.
> - People can ask an invited bot to read a discussion, create follow-up
tasks, and collaborate in Slack.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Chat connectors, connector runtime, tool gateway, and connection
Settings/Access.

**Problem or motivation**

Slack-origin tasks can receive messages but cannot inspect the rest of a
channel or act through the originating bot. People must paste context or
configure a separate integration.

**Proposed solution**

Supply typed Slack tools and a bundled skill only to the originating
task and assigned agent. Resolve the linked requester on the server.
Check bot and requester access before reads and writes. Use existing
durable actions and approvals. Retrieved messages remain source
material.

**Alternatives considered**

Slack's user-OAuth MCP server does not replace the customer-created chat
bot. An unrestricted Web API proxy would not provide suitable permission
or publication boundaries.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the existing MCP Tool Gateway & Apps work with a provider
contribution. It does not add a task dispatcher or a separate Slack task
lifecycle. Related: #11144 covers generic per-user MCP grant execution;
this change binds Slack bot operations to chat-origin tasks.

## What Changed

- Add 39 typed Slack tools, a method/scope matrix, a bundled skill, and
shared native/HTTP execution.
- Bind tools to company, endpoint, task, run, assigned agent, and
admitted linked requester. Check membership and revocation on each call
and before queued writes.
- Add paginated reads, bounded history search, source links, messages,
file uploads, reactions, pins, bookmarks, topics, canvases, lists, and
approved channel operations.
- Restrict private-source publication, including automatic replies and
uploaded deliverables. Keep other people's bot DMs inaccessible.
- Reuse action receipts, idempotency, approvals, and reconciliation.
Suppress an identical explicit-send/final-reply duplicate. Return
governed results through their verified originating conversation.
- Add endpoint-bound personal search OAuth storage and lifecycle. Keep
native real-time search disabled until a runtime meets Slack's
transient-result requirements. Current runtimes use bounded history
search.
- Show capabilities, scope upgrades, and personal search authorization
in Settings/Access and Storybook. Document provider and runtime limits.

## Verification

- Current head `0eb21cba4`: CI checks pass and Greptile is 5/5 with no
unresolved findings. One unchanged rapid-callback timing test passed on
a single CI retry.
- Approval presentation regressions cover board-comment precedence and
exact Slack publication; the expanded database assertion passed in CI.
The local PostgreSQL startup probe later became unavailable, so that
final assertion was verified in CI. Slack setup and failed-run retry
browser tests also passed locally.

- Full workspace typecheck and build passed. Server typecheck/build
passed again after the approval routing fix.
- Broad local suites passed in separate groups: server 12,958 tests, UI
6,555, shared 770, skills catalog 20, and other workspace packages
2,652. CLI and serialized server checks passed after environment/timeout
retries. These are composite results, not one uninterrupted green
full-suite invocation.
- PostgreSQL authority regression covers admitted identity,
cross-company/task/agent rejection, recovery, retained-session
revocation, OAuth refresh/disconnect races, approval execution, exact
publication lineage, retries, uncertain sends, and duplicate
suppression.
- Gateway/response regressions cover separate-origin approval batches
and durable continuation. Focused provider, access, search, native
runtime, route, and AgentMail regressions pass.
- Storybook capability, missing-scope, OAuth configuration,
authorization, and disconnect states were inspected in the browser.
- Live staging: read a channel decision and full thread, create exactly
two assigned backlog tasks, add a reaction, paginate discovery to
exhaustion, and return bounded search matches with source links and
coverage.
- Live staging: create/edit/read a canvas and list, inspect the canvas
in Slack, post/edit one message, and create a channel only after
approval. New channels remain disabled for responses.
- Live staging: read a response-disabled channel from the requester's
DM; writes to that channel were denied. The test setting was restored.
- Final live retest passed: explicit file upload and exact content
read-back; approved deletion of only the disposable bot message;
continuation confirmation returned to the original Slack thread without
repeating the action.
- Optional OAuth, private multi-user boundaries, native RTS, and CLI
provider execution are not fully live-qualified. The staging agent
initially supplied malformed tool arguments; valid arguments succeeded,
and the tool/skill descriptions now emphasize UUID write keys.

## Risks

- Existing Slack apps must add scopes and reinstall for new
capabilities. Provider plans and document permissions can still restrict
operations.
- Instances need an independent `PAPERCLIP_TOOL_ACTION_SIGNING_SECRET`
for governed tool actions. The staging instance was configured with
explicit operator approval; fleet provisioning is a separate gap.
- Native RTS is not exposed on current transcript-retaining runtimes.
Bounded history scans are deliberately reported as incomplete. Inline
file reads support text/canvas content up to 256 KiB; other types return
metadata.
- Private document edits fail closed when the full audience cannot be
verified. Uncertain effects other than posts/uploads require inspection
instead of blind retries.
- Shared approval-delivery code now separates outcomes by source run to
preserve origin boundaries. No database migration is required.
- A separate completion-validator gap remains when the agent cites a
prior run's registered artifact during finalization. It asked for
registration again even though Slack delivery was confirmed. This change
does not add a connector-specific task-completion policy.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with repository tools, code execution, and
browser testing. The exact deployed model identifier and context-window
size were not exposed in the session.

DottaandPaperclip 2083bf6f9a feat(connections): add AgentMail inboxes and email tasks (#13256)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Connections give agents controlled access to external services.
> - Experimental channels already map conversations to tasks and durable
work queues.
> - Email needs inbox ownership, recipient envelopes, delivery records,
and explicit sends.
> - This pull request adds AgentMail to that infrastructure and keeps
the provider key in the server vault.
> - Agents can receive and send email from local or sandbox execution
while the board follows each conversation in its task.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

Agents need dedicated email addresses. Incoming email should become
assigned work. Internal task comments and progress must never become
outgoing email by accident.

**Proposed solution**

Add experimental AgentMail connections, an inbox assignment wizard,
durable email intake and publication, task email cards, and
authenticated API, CLI, and native runtime actions. Agents use Paperclip
credentials to request sends. Paperclip owns the provider key and
enforces access and task authority.

**Alternatives considered**

A general mailbox MCP connector does not provide durable task binding or
publication boundaries. A separate mailbox application duplicates task
collaboration. The board instead directs the agent through the normal
task conversation.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the existing experimental connections and task
infrastructure. Product scope and interaction design were reviewed with
the maintainer. Related connection authority work: #11831 and #11818.
The duplicate search found no competing task-based AgentMail
integration.

## What Changed

- Add AgentMail catalog data, shared contracts, company-scoped email
records, and an additive migration.
- Add vaulted setup, inbox assignment, access grants, trust guidance,
and provider-side allowlist guidance.
- Support WebSocket and signed-webhook intake through a shared durable
pipeline, deduplication, catch-up, and task wakeups.
- Queue explicit new conversations and replies with immutable send
intents, idempotency, delivery state, and uncertain-send resolution.
- Show inbound and outbound email cards in normal task conversations.
Keep internal messages internal.
- Add task-scoped CLI actions and the sandbox callback routes required
for Daytona execution.
- Provide a dedicated AgentMail skill automatically only to agents with
active authorized inbox assignments. Keep email instructions out of the
universal Paperclip skill.
- Advertise connector-owned `agentmail_inboxes`,
`agentmail_read_thread`, `agentmail_send`, and `agentmail_delivery`
tools only in eligible native sessions. Recheck live authority on
execution.
- Isolate Codex CLI connector skills by agent and skill revision.
Deliver the assigned skill in the run prompt for adapters that use
shared skill directories, including resumed turns. Keep automatic skills
out of manual persistent sync. Show them as read-only and document the
pattern in the connector playbook.
- Fix AgentMail health checks that entered local-stdio validation and
optional missing Codex credential cleanup in sandboxes.
- Add API, pipeline, authorization, sandbox, browser, and Storybook
coverage.

## Verification

- Live AgentMail testing covered WebSocket intake, signed webhooks,
restart catch-up, and a full receive → task → Daytona Codex CLI →
explicit reply → Delivered round trip. The reply was verified in the
other inbox. The normal task composer also initiated an outgoing email
child task.
- The connector-skill change was verified in the browser: AgentMail
appears once as an automatic, read-only skill with its assigned address.
Disabling experimental chat connections removes it; re-enabling restores
it. A regression test covers assignment data arriving after library
data.
- Connector regression coverage passed 178 runtime utility, email
integration, skill-route, and heartbeat tests. All 17 Codex execution
tests passed, including per-agent skill isolation, model identity,
revision changes, removal, and prompt delivery without shared skill
files.
- After rebasing onto master, all 44 focused email, heartbeat, and
native-authority tests passed. All 313 native-session executor tests
passed. The UI regression suite passed all 3 tests. These test sets
overlap earlier focused runs.
- Full workspace typecheck and build passed after the rebase. Token
gates passed. Earlier focused Playwright task/setup coverage and the
Storybook build also passed.
- Native connector tool execution uses deterministic integration tests.
Live Daytona qualification used the Codex CLI adapter; the new
shared-home prompt fallback has deterministic coverage.
- The full repository suite is run by CI. The earlier unsharded local
full-suite attempt was stopped after the equivalent CI suites passed and
is not reported as a completed local run. Greptile reviewed
`7e57dc267a8446d3c906e3cc5b8abc94fb8860eb` at 5/5 with no unresolved
threads. All server, workspace, serialized server, and browser suites
passed in CI. The build job hit a five-second timeout in a runner
transport test; both variants and the full 80-test file passed locally
with unchanged timeouts. The build passed on retry on the same commit
without code or timeout changes. All required CI gates, including the
final `ci / verify` and `ci / e2e` summaries, are green on
`7e57dc267a8446d3c906e3cc5b8abc94fb8860eb`.

## Risks

- Email from external senders can start normal agent work. Setup
recommends a low-trust agent and AgentMail sender controls. Sender
addresses never grant board membership.
- Provider timeouts can leave uncertain sends. Retries retain their
idempotency key; expired windows require reconciliation or operator
resolution.
- Connector skills and native tools are assignment-dependent and require
current access. Revocation denies retained calls; assignment changes
select a new runtime context.
- Activation remains behind the experimental-channel setting. The native
runner path has deterministic coverage; live Daytona qualification used
the Codex CLI adapter.
- Schema changes are additive. Inbox ownership is unique across
companies. Disconnect preserves provider inboxes and task history.

## Model Used

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