DottaandPaperclip f69c6a8a35 fix(github): retry and recover review publication (#16284)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agent work and its published results.
> - GitHub review bots publish task-bound assessments through governed
tools.
> - A review can survive a caller timeout because its publication intent
is durable.
> - A transient provider failure still returned a failed receipt before
recovery.
> - Gateway replay could return an empty cached result, and publication
retries had no dedicated scheduler deadline.
> - This pull request adds bounded retries, receipt recovery, and an
independent durable worker.
> - A temporary GitHub failure can recover without another review or
duplicate publication.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #16275. That change increased the GitHub tool deadline. This change
repairs retry and recovery behavior.

**What happened?**

A one-off GitHub HTTP 503 or 429 left the caller with a failed
publication receipt. The saved retry did not have its own scheduler
worker. An identical gateway call after a timeout could return an empty
cached result instead of the saved publication receipt.

**Expected behavior**

Temporary failures should retry under current authority. Pending work
should resume at its saved deadline after restart. Exact retries should
return the current receipt. Lost responses must not create duplicate
comments, findings, or checks.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Admit an advisory PR review request and begin its assessment.
2. Return HTTP 503 or 429 for the first summary-comment PATCH, then let
GitHub succeed.
3. Submit the assessment through the run-scoped tool gateway.
4. On master, the result says publication failed. With this change, the
same call returns the processed receipt and neutral check.
5. For receipt recovery, use a shorter caller deadline and repeat the
exact call after publication finishes.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on master at `6cb6ac3b8e40cb90d734ba115a2f22f850ff9477`.

## What Changed

- Classify transient transport, server, and rate-limit failures. Honor
Retry-After and primary reset deadlines. Stop retries for permanent
permission and validation errors.
- Retry safe reads and installation-token issuance within a bounded call
window. Retry publication writes through the existing outbox and
provider receipt checks.
- Wait for up to three publication attempts within a 45-second retry
window. Keep the durable eight-failure cap and enforce saved deadlines
on explicit retries.
- Register an independent GitHub publication worker with
transaction-owned wake notifications, startup recovery, and per-PR lease
deadlines.
- Recover exact comment, progress, and assessment gateway calls from
their stored publication. Require the same company, agent, task, run,
connection, tool, arguments, and current policy. Clear stale timeout
errors after recovery. Approved exact retries read the current receipt
through the existing signed replay path; the worker retains the verified
approval for deferred writes and still rejects revocation.
- Add regression coverage and update the connector guide and
feature/access maps.

## Verification

- Red: both one-off HTTP 503 and 429 regressions failed on master with a
failed publication receipt.
- Green: the same tests passed after the change.
- GitHub review workflows: 133 covered against isolated PostgreSQL 18.
The final combined run passed 132 and hit one fifteen-second timeout
under concurrent build load. All three variants of that workflow passed
in isolation. The earlier combined run passed all 131 workflows before
the two approval regressions were added.
- Retry policy and delivery coordinator tests: 35 passed.
- Additional focused checks passed for the actual eight-failure cap,
exact-argument conflicts, policy revocation, and timeout receipt
recovery. The approved deferred-publication and revocation regressions
failed before the review repair and passed after it, with one approval
request preserved.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed. `pnpm build`: passed. `node
scripts/check-maps.mjs`: passed.
- The broad local `pnpm test:run` path remains blocked by the host's
exhausted PostgreSQL shared-memory slots. The changed database-backed
workflows use an isolated Docker database instead. All Paperclip CI jobs
passed at a6d81b67cb, including the required verify and E2E gates.
Greptile is 5/5 at the same head, with the approval-recovery finding
resolved. The external Superagent Security Scan also passed.
- Live acceptance passed on a dedicated single-repository local test App
and native Paperclip Runner. A test-only preload returned one HTTP 503
before the final summary PATCH. One submit_review call completed in
17.305 seconds; the bot published its 3/5 advisory review and neutral
check, then automatically finished the task. [Published
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-permissions-smoke-20260926-pap57-fee7428e/pull/9#issuecomment-6168809007),
[neutral
check](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-permissions-smoke-20260926-pap57-fee7428e/runs/115863564014).
This live test ran at de6862072c; approval-specific recovery is covered
by the later regressions. The preload is excluded from the repository
and removed from the running local instance.

## Risks

Retries make additional bounded provider requests. A provider write with
a lost response is recovered through its existing App-owned identity
before another write is permitted. The worker rechecks authority and the
PR head; revocation and superseded work stop publication. Calls can
still exceed their deadline, and repeated failures eventually exhaust
the retry cap. A pending publication is not a completed task. The agent
still owns task completion after receiving a confirmed receipt. No
schema migration is needed.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex (GPT-6 family), with code inspection, editing, and test
execution. The exact deployment model ID and context window are not
exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip b1ebe3de3c perf(chat): wake action queues from commits and deadlines (#15808)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Chat keeps durable rows for provider actions and setup messages.
> - Five action queues still scan the database every second when empty.
> - Empty scans add idle database traffic and prevent cost savings from
sleep.
> - This pull request wakes these queues when their writes commit or
their next deadline arrives.
> - Existing rows retain retry and restart recovery. Empty queues stop
scanning.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15802, #15625, #15750, #15757. Related allocation work: #15153.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Idle chat reconciliation for Slack Board messages, Slack slash-command
task starts, Slack setup verification messages, receipt reactions, and
Slack session stops.

**Current behavior**

The app runs these five queue scans through chat maintenance every
second, including when no work exists.

**Proposed behavior**

Each queue has an independent worker on the existing scheduler.
Producers and foreground claim/retry/settlement writes announce work
inside their database transaction. The worker wakes after the outer
transaction settles. Startup restores durable work. Shared dispatch and
deadline predicates select real retries and abandoned claims. Empty
queues disarm.

**Subsystem affected**

Server chat services. No schema or migration changes.

## What Changed

- Register five action workers alongside the three delivery workers from
#15802. Remove their scans from periodic app maintenance.
- Share action eligibility between dispatch and deadline selection. Park
paused Board messages and task starts until endpoint changes. Preserve
uncertain-send quarantine.
- Wake setup verification after account, welcome, registration, or
authenticated callback changes. Exclude prerequisites that need another
event.
- Persist a retry time for failed provider-confirmed task admission. Its
own commit notification cannot cause an immediate retry loop.
- Reuse the existing transaction signals and scheduler registration
code. Provider calls remain outside database transactions.
- Update the instance-sleep inventory and add scheduler and PostgreSQL
regression coverage.

## Verification

- Passed: 37 scheduler, coordinator, and app-wiring tests, including an
idle hour with no further scans or timers.
- Passed: seven focused PostgreSQL chat cases. These cover deadline
eligibility, startup recovery, outer-commit wakes, actual producer
signals, and signed-callback verification without maintenance polling.
- Passed: `pnpm typecheck`.
- Passed: full chat integration suite and related
publication/coordinator tests, **1,278 tests** across six files,
including **1,228 chat integration cases**.
- Passed: `pnpm build`.
- After the review fix, seven focused PostgreSQL integration cases and
the server typecheck passed again. Deadline and dispatch queries now
exclude completed action history.
- Greptile: **5/5** on `35a979fce6bb9ab910fab3373ec8e537fc2d01a9`, with
the prior finding resolved and no new findings.
- Fixed a CI timing failure in the GitHub mention integration test:
asynchronous admission now has an explicit ten-second assertion deadline
instead of the default one second. The failure reproduced locally; all
five mention variants and all 398 cases in the matching CI shard pass
after the fix.
- Hosted CI passed on `35a979fce6bb9ab910fab3373ec8e537fc2d01a9`: **54
successful checks**, two intentionally skipped Storybook checks, no
failures or pending checks.

Provider responses are simulated in the integration suite. PostgreSQL,
transactions, service dispatch, and scheduling are real. No live Slack
workspace was used.

## Risks

- Every producer that changes runnable state must emit a transaction
signal. This change covers the five queues and their foreground
dispatch/retry paths. Direct SQL and independent DB owners still need
explicit integration or startup recovery.
- Missing retry or claim deadlines can strand work. Tests compare the
dispatch and deadline behavior, including paused and uncertain states.
- Other provider maintenance, sockets, and scheduled jobs remain. This
change does not establish full instance sleep.
- No new tables, migrations, or provider credentials are required.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex (GPT-6), with repository inspection, code execution, and
automated tests.

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.
